Kim Clijsters easily sailed through in her opening two matches of the US Open 2010, but the defending champion will certainly face the first big challenge in the form of Wimbeldon semi-finalist Petra Kvitova in her third-round match, here at the Flushing Meadows.

Twenty-seventh seeded Petra Kvitova garnered all the attention and instantly shot to fame, when she reached the semi-finals of the Wimbledon 2010. The Czech subdued many big contenders on her en-route to the semi-finals of the Championships. With that remarkable performance Kvitova earned many fans all across the globe.

Enjoy the live commentary of this match!

Coming relatively fresh from her last Grand Slam’s performance, the Czech would certainly make it a worthwhile duel for her by pushing the limits. though, Clijsters has hit the peak in terms of her form in the ongoing US Open, this time she has to be a bit cautious.

Brandon Baxter and Lauren Jenkins welcomed us to another action packed show. Brandon asked what is Kevin White going to be like without The Ga Ga Girl, who was forced to leave Memphis Wrestling after losing to Su Yung, last week. Coming up, Kevin White will be in action and Jerry “The King” Lawler will have a rematch with Tom Savini’s Jason.

Virgil plugged Jerry Lawler’s Memphis Wrestling.

Brandon Baxter is joined by Kevin White, who appeared to be in a somber mood. Kevin White said he’s got to have a companion because he can’t be alone. then, Kevin lit up, smiling and started singing, “Well, I got a new manager! and it’s not a stupid skank! Blood is thicker than water! Cause it’s my father! Hahahaha! you know what? I’ve found out that blood’s thicker than water! and I’m gonna go back to my roots that made me the best Memphis wrestler to ever step in this ring! and my new partner and my new manager, from this day forward, will not be no nail salon woman, will not be no Hollywood tramps, it will be my own father!” Kevin embraced his father, Garry White. Garry White said he’s been sitting back for three months, watching his son make mistakes. Garry White added, “That’s what a father does. He let him make mistakes and, hopefully, he learns from those mistakes. and I think he finally did. I spent a ton of money on Kevin’s career and I’m here now to make sure he’s the best wrestler in Memphis Wrestling and I’m gonna do it!”

Opening Match-Kevin White defeated Cody Melton when Garry White shoved Cody Melton off the top-rope, allowing Kevin to make the cover for the three count.

Pro Wrestling Journalist Bill Apter plugged Jerry Lawler’s Memphis Wrestling.

The team of Brian C, Wolfie D “Too Cruel” and “The Genetically Gifted Supernatural” Tommy Mercer made their way to ringside. Wolfie said he would beat a little kid up. Wolfie added, “It ain’t nothing for me to beat a little kid up or an old woman or an old man!” Fans started chanting, “Boring!” Brian Christopher personally apologized to Wolfie D and Tommy Mercer for the way all the fans were treating them. Brian said they should be jumping up, standing on their chairs and applauding the three greatest wrestlers. Brian stated that Brian C and Wolfie D are without a doubt the greatest tag-team and Tommy Mercer is the greatest singles wrestler. Tommy added that’s he’s the baddest man in Memphis Wrestling. Brian followed by telling everybody, “Did you hear that people? He’s bad! He’s bad! and you know who else is bad? and I mean they are so bad that they stink? and they’re boring! That’s Matt Boyce, Jocephus and that punk from Hawaii! So get them out here and watch us beat them up! and, by the way, we’re not boring! We are exciting!”

Matt Boyce, Lani Kialoha and Jocephus out with Matt Boyce saying that two weeks ago he had Wolfie D beat, but he brought that hubcap in the ring. Lani Kialoha called Brian C and Wolfie D “Alphabet Soup” and Jocephus asked, “Are you ready for some wrestling?”

Bert Prentice joined Brandon Baxter for commentary.

6-Man Tag Action-Brian C, Wolfie D and Tommy Mercer vs Matt Boyce, Lani Kialoha and Jocephus-Referee Chuck Poe-Bert Prentice called Jocephus, “Josey Wales”. Toward the end, as all six men were going at it, they showed a little picture in picture, featuring another camera angle. That was cool. Jocephus chokeslammed Brian C and Kialoha flew off the top-rope landing a headbutt on Brian. while Kialoha had Brian pinned, Wolfie D hit Kialoha in the back of the head with the hubcap and rolled Brian on top of him to get the victory. Your winners, “Too Cruel” Brian C & Wolfie D and “The Genetically Gifted Supernatural” Tommy Mercer! Brandon noted the hubcap has been involved in everyone of their matches together, thus far.

Bret “The Hitman” Hart plugged Jerry Lawler’s Memphis Wrestling.

Lauren Jenkins introduced her sister, Kristen Jenkins and presented The Superstar Hotline segment of the show, brought to us by Tax Solutions. This week, we heard from R-Truth that said, “What’s up? This is R-Truth with a special delivery message. Brian, someone told me to deliver a message to you and to tell the truth about it. I don’t know if you know or if anybody else notices or not, but you’re not black, Brian. I’m sorry, Man, I had to be the one to break it to you! You’re not! I know you like the hip hop music! I know you like, you know, wearing the baggy pants and doing all the, you know what I’m saying, the gang and thug stuff. I know you like that, but B-Rad, I mean, Brian, you’re not black. Wolfie, I’m sorry, you’re in the same boat with him. Neither of you guys are black, OK? you might as well go ahead and play some music that has piccolos in it, you know. and be more yourself, you know. Keep it real and that’s what’s up!”

Stacy Carter, better known as The Kat and miss Kitty in the WWE, plugged Jerry Lawler’s Memphis Wrestling.

Brandon Baxter back with WWE Action, presented by Frankie’s Cars. This week’s match was from RAW with the team of Sheamus and The Miz defeating John Cena and Chris Jericho when Jericho hit, his own partner, John Cena with The Codebreaker. after the bell, Team WWE continued to disintegrate with John Cena, Chris Jericho, Edge, R-Truth, John Morrison and The great Khali fighting amongst each other.

Edge said, “I can’t believe this. It boggles my mind. what is it? twelve weeks now? The show is still on the air?”

New video sent in by Tom Savini, where he said the following: “OK, Jerry Lawler! you big tub of guts! I told you what I was going to do. I told you that you were going to pay for what you did to my friend, Andy Kaufman. what Jason did to you last week, that was only the beginning. I’ve instructed him to finish this. I’ve instructed him to destroy you, completely. So, he’s on his way. and what I tell Jason to do. He does it.”

Jerry “The King” Lawler made his grand entrance, accompanied by the lovely Su Yung. Lawler bragged on the tremendous job that Brandon Baxter has done, as well as Lauren Jenkins. Lawler, once again, personally invited Tom Savini to come to Memphis. Lawler added that he would light him up like a Roman candle and then he can make a movie without makeup because his face will be burned, beyond recognition.

Boss Winters joined Brandon Baxter for commentary.

“Hollywood” Jimmy Blaylock escorted Jason to the ring in chains as the screen featured the special Tom Savini’s Monstervision. Jason was once again carrying the large machete.

Main Event-Jerry “The King” Lawler with Su Yung in his corner defeated Tom Savini’s “Greatest Creation” Jason, led by “Hollywood” Jimmy Blaylock-Referee Jerry Calhoun-Boss Winters said that Jerry Calhoun refereed the match where Lawler killed Andy Kaufman, so he’s an accessory to the crime. Referee Jerry Calhoun called for the disqualification when “Hollywood” Jimmy was caught choking Lawler in the corner with the massive chain. Su Yung jumped on the back of Jason and was thrown to the canvas. Jason grabbed Su by the throat in the corner, but Lawler saved her by driving Jason to the ground with the chain. Lawler followed it up by dropping the fist, wrapped in the chain, on Jason from the second rope. Lawler pinned Jason as Referee Jerry Calhoun made the three count. as Jerry Lawler and Su Yung were celebrating, an irate “Hollywood” Jimmy demanded that Lawler get back in the ring. Lawler accepted, by saying, “You want me! you got me!” Lawler grabbed the machete and chased off “Hollywood” Jimmy and Jason as Boss Winters yelled that Lawler was a murderer.

Brandon Baxter and Lauren Jenkins wrapped up another wild morning. Brandon noted that Lawler ran off The Jokester about a month ago and now it looks like we’ve seen the last of Jason. “The King” has issued the challenge to The Hollywood makeup artist, Tom Savini. We will have to see if Tom Savini shows up. Brandon said, “We’ll see you right here, next week, on Jerry Lawler’s Memphis Wrestling.”

Ended with a new video of Edge saying, “And now, my favorite part of the show. Not another match. The end!” Funny stuff.Jerry Lawler’s Memphis Wrestling will be at the Delta fair and Music Festival. Wresting will be Sunday, Sept 5th , Bell Time is 6PM in the “A” Wing. Don’t miss your chance to see your favorite superstars in person!!

When was the last time you dealt with a business and your experience from beginning to end was nothing less than phenomenal?

It’s the kind of experience you find yourself bragging endlessly to others about. You’ll find it wherever you find customers who almost constitute a ‘cult’ following. Chances are this is a rare experience for most of us. If you do find that kind of business, study it well.

What separates truly great businesses from the good or mediocre? From my perspective, it’s the ability to design each segment of a business so the products and services far exceed customer expectations. “Design thinking” is a strategy for making sure that every aspect of your business is optimized to deliver a superior customer experience every time.

Three-part series

This is the second in a three-column series on ‘design thinking’ and business strategy.

This is exactly what Disney does in its theme parks. Nothing is left to chance. Every aspect of the park is designed to create a positive experience that makes you come back for more.

Here are some key considerations when contemplating a ‘design thinking’ business strategy:

There is no “one-size-fits-all.” A formula for incorporating design thinking into business doesn’t exist. the character of your business, as well as your own mindset, will influence what you can do to embed design thinking into your business.

A design-thinking strategy is cultural. you can’t wake up one day and just decide to create a “culture of design.” Businesses that are used to winging it cannot easily transition into a culture of designing products and services that “just work.” It’s going to take a large investment of time and energy to slowly train yourself and your team to be able to embed “design thinking.”

Authenticity and passion are required. you can’t embed a design strategy into your business without being authentic about the business you are in. Some people are in a particular business because it was a way to make a living, not because of deep passion for it. Authenticity is what makes Apple, Nike and Porsche inherently successful at creating products that drive positive customer experience in their fields.

Design-driven strategy tames the complex, providing customers with a seamless and simple way to interact with your business. the acts of customers who want to research, test, buy, and receive service from you shouldn’t be difficult.

Every segment of your business has to be designed and engineered to create superior products and services. Nothing is left to chance, including everything from the mailroom to the boardroom.

Say goodbye to discount pricing. A superior customer experience that creates excess value allows for better profit margins. Nobody likes to pay premium prices for a mediocre experience. the key here is to design an “end-to-end” customer experience that clearly differentiates you from the competition, most of which are mediocre at best.

Those brave enough to create a culture of design thinking pave the road to business profitability and longevity. In the next column, we’ll show you how to get there your own way.

In a new book released today, Dirty Sexy Politics (very catchy and SEO friendly, no?) Meghan McCain, daughter of failed 2008 presidential candidate and Arizona Senator John McCain, says that she doesn’t blame Sarah Palin for her dad’s loss against Barack Obama.

Yes, Palin, who she calls “the Time Bomb,” brought drama, stress and uncertainty to the campaign. but Palin, then-governor of Alaska, was also “nice and down-to-Earth” and a chick magnet–in that she was able to captivate and inspire female voters.

“I was waiting for her to explode,” writes McCain, 25 a columnist for The Daily Beast. “There was a fine line between genius and insanity, they say, and choosing her as the running mate was starting to seem like the definition of that line.”

But going against “Change We can believe In” and “Yes We Can” was a no-win no-brainer, she writes. “Obama was unbeatable” both in terms of the voters–52% to 46% of popular vote and 365 to 173 electoral votes–and the media. In her opinion, the election was more anti-George W. Bush than anti-McCain, who says he is “proud of his daughter and enjoyed the book.”

“Reality is that we don’t agree on every issue, but that makes it even more interesting conversation around the dinner table,” he told the AP.

In her book, published by Hyperion, she also talks about the uncomfortable fit of the Republican party, sort of like a size 0 Calvin Klein on a size 8. “Being Republican is not a lifestyle choice,” she writes. “And it doesn’t mean you can’t be young, or gay, or black, or anything else.”

WordPress 3.0 was released a few days ago, and it’s more powerful than it has ever been. and if you are thinking of using WordPress 3 for your blog or even as a CMS, I recommend a self-hosted version rather than the free version hosted on WordPress.com.

So, what are the server requirements to host WordPress 3.0? according to the WordPress official website, your WordPress host should meet the following minimum requirements:

  • PHP 4.3 or greater
  • MySQL 4.1.2 or greater
  • The mod_rewrite Apache module (This is necessary to have pretty SEO-friendly URLs)

Note that WordPress will soon quit support for PHP 4 and MySQL 4 (read official announcement here), so if you are planning to continue using WordPress next year (2011), I strongly recommend that you switch to a hosting that has PHP 5 and MySQL 5 to avoid having to use an older version of WordPress in the near future when the newer versions no longer support PHP 4/MySQL4. Both Dreamhost and Bluehost have PHP 5 and MySQL 5.

I have used more than 10 web hosting providers for my online projects but here are my recommended hosting for WordPress 3.0.

Dreamhost

Dreamhost is an ideal hosting provider for advanced users. their Control Panel is a bit different to CPanel/Plesk but they have so many more features than CPanel/Plesk if you know what you are doing. and if you install WordPress using “WordPress one-click installer” on dreamhost, they will upgrade it for you automatically. this is a good feature because you don’t have to manually upgrade WordPress whenever a new version comes out. But you need to be careful not to hack the core code or core files of WordPress because your changes will be overwritten when they install a new version. I have heard a lot of mixed reviews about support at dreamhost but I have never really had to contact them because their knowledge base and wiki are quite comprehensive. I am using Dreamhost for this Web Development Blog and it is my recommend hosting provider for developers and technical savvy people. Dreamhost costs $8.53 per month which is a bit more expensive than most shared hosting but you do get what you pay for and you can get $30 off by using this coupon: WEBDEV30.

Test drive Dreamhost now.

Screenshot of Dreamhost’s one-click installs

BlueHost

Bluehost is an ideal hosting provider for basic users. Each hosting account comes with a CPanel and one click install feature to install WordPress on your hosting account in less than 3 minutes. The install feature also allows you to install a previous version of WordPress so if, for some reason, you need to install WordPress 2.9 instead of WordPress 3.0 for plugin compatibility reasons, you can do so easily. The following video shows you how to install WordPress on Bluehost using their one click install. I am using Bluehost for a few of my websites. At $6.95/month with a free domain name for life and unlimited domain hosting, the price is very affordable.

Test drive BlueHost now.

Today on Plugin Picks, we’ve got a WordPress plugin for all the geeky theme coders or plugin developers out there. For those WordPress users who have trouble remembering all the various PHP functions used when coding extensions for the platform, the WP Function Reference WordPress plugin adds a dashboard widget for quick reference.

That’s all for this week on Plugin Picks. see you on Monday!

  • Categories: Plugin Picks, Podcasts
  • Tags: coding, dashboard, PHP, Plugin Picks, show, WordCast, WordPress, WordPress plugin, WordPress Plugins, WP Function Reference
  • Share:
  • Facebook
  • Del.icio.us
  • Digg
  • Reddit
  • I was going to contact the person myself, but I couldn’t exactly find contact information. Truthfully, I’m not sure whether I should be amused, disappointed, or happy. What the plugin achieves and does so quite well is provide an simple example at how to create a dashboard widget. while the plugin itself isn’t all that great, it could also be used as a learning tool, “Which parts of this plugin could be improved?”

    I also believe there was another plugin which has a better method accessing the phpdoc documentation along with the codex, but I forget what the name or where the plugin is.

  • Thank-you for the comment about the plugin Jacob.

    I have reached out and forwarded your suggestions to the developer of this plugin.

  • This plugin is not worth anything, least of which to coders. I seriously think this is a joke, since it reads that way.

    1. The breaking and entering of php tags is pointless and might cause PHP bugs when someone edits the theme and thinks adding a new line will be “helpful” to formatting.

    2. The lack of proper use of tabs makes the code read terribly.

    3. Function names are pointless, comments are pointless. “show_me_which_functions_are_available” would be better named “display_functions_list()”. “show_me_which_functions_are_available_dashboard_widget_function” is an exercise of pointless aliasing, and further tells me that this a joke plugin.

    4. “$funx[user]” should be $funx['user'] causing a notice in the PHP logs.

    5. not all of the functions will be listed on the codex. Given that many of the plugins functions are not going to be listed on the codex as well.

    6. phpdoc.wordpress.org is a better place to get documentation on WordPress functions.

    7. The plugins should at least check for the page existence before linking and caching the results to save time.
