Glen Abbey easy choice for Jim Nelford's induction into Canadian Golf Hall of Fame

OAKVILLE, Ont. ? The thought of returning to Glen Abbey Golf Club was Jim Nelford's dream while he lived through a nightmare.
Nelford was seriously injured in a water-skiing accident in 1985 when a boat's propeller sliced one of his arms. Although he recovered, he was never able to regain his top golfing form and eventually lost his spot on the PGA Tour.
"After I had my accident, the doctors told me I would never play the game again and I would have half a right arm," said Nelford, before being inducted into the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame on Friday. "When I was recovering, part of my recovery was trying to think positively, trying to think as positively as I could, but I had many dreams about coming back to play at the Abbey.
"If I could just come back and play the Abbey one more time and get in contention one more time, that was my dream, and it was a recurring dream."
The Vancouver native missed the cut at the 1986 Canadian Open but finished in a tie for 18th the next year.
"The first time I came back after the accident, it was too soon. It was too soon for me to be back on Tour," said Nelford. "The first six months I didn't make a cut, but the PGA Tour basically forced me to take my year as per medical extension. I didn't make a cut for six months, missing by a shot, missing by two shots, but I started to play a little bit better on the weekend."
Nelford was joined in the hall by amateur Alison Murdoch and Jack McLaughlin, honoured posthumously in the builder category.
Nelford won the Canadian amateur championship in 1975 and 1976. He turned pro in 1977, and played on the PGA Tour from 1978 to 1988, where his best finish was second at the 1983 Sea Pines Heritage Classic and at the 1984 Bing Crosby Pro-Am where he lost in a playoff with Hale Irwin.
The memories of the support of the fans at the Canadian Open have always stuck with Nelford, making the Jack Nicklaus-designed course a natural choice for his induction speech.
"Glen Abbey meant so much to me, and being able to play here and compete here and compete well at times and go through the gamut, the missing the cuts and how much it breaks your heart, and you don't know what to do," said Nelford. "You don't know whether to leave town, you don't know whether to sit in your room and cry. It meant so much every time.
"And all the friends that I've made being here and playing in front of people, this was just the spot, and at the Canadian Open this was the spot."

Famous Surrealist Art Amazingly Reimagined with Super Mario Bros

Ren? Magritte's art is famous for tickling your brain, making you question and helping you dissolve the line of what's real and what matters. You can recognize Magritte's work and influence anywhere but can you imagine it as Super Mario Bros? The artist Racoonda has re-created paintings from Magritte by putting them in the world of Super Mario Bros. It's wonderful.

Apple hits three-year low in smartphone marketshare, shipment figures reveal

Apple hits three-year low in smartphone marketshare, shipment figures reveal

Fresh reports on the state of the cellphone market during Q2 2013 have blown through the barn door, and industry analysts are flaunting some fairly impressive figures. Smartphones have outsold their less-intelligent brethren for the second quarter in a row, and Strategy Analytics says shipments hit a record-breaking 237.9 million. According to IDC, Samsung managed to ship a total of 72.4 million smartphones during Q2 -- a 43.9% boost year-over-year -- with help of the Galaxy S 4 and price cuts to the GS3. To put that in perspective, that's more than double the 31.2 million iPhones Apple managed to ship, and Strategy Analytics claims this marks a three-year low in Cook and Co.'s marketshare. While LG and ZTE each occupy third and fifth place, respectively, Lenovo pushed Huawei out of the number four slot by sending out 11.3 million handsets. If you're craving for more stats, hit the break for a trio of press releases.

Boomerang for Android update brings notifications and more


Boomerang for Android update brings notifications and more

Boomerang, an email app for Gmail users came available for Android a few weeks back. The app launched with quite a bit in terms of functionality and features, however it looks like a rather welcomed update has recently arrived in the Play Store. This update brings the app to v0.8 and has taken care of various unspecified bugs and also added push notifications and more.

boomerang-for-android-540

It is always refreshing to see an update that takes care of the bugs, the bigger deal here is likely the notifications. These are off by default, but can be easily turned on by heading to the settings. For that tap the Menu icon in the upper left and scroll all the way down to the bottom. From here tap the Settings option and then the Account Settings option. Once here you will see the Notification settings page.

This is fairly simple and can either be off or on. Once turned on you have a few options to fine tune. The notification options include sound, vibrate, and light. There is also an option to have the app notify you for each new message. Another new item that has arrived with this update deals with a send-as email address. In this case, you now have the option to add an alternate.

The setup for this can also be found in the Settings and is listed as being Send From Address. The setup process here is pretty simple, just tap Add Address and proceed to type the email address and name you need listed. From here you will have the option to change the address any new messages are being sent from by using the dropdown in the From field on the new message screen.

Both of these new items are accessible from the Settings page, which brings us full-circle to the last of the changes that came along with the v0.8 update. That last item was a redesigned settings page. Simply put, those who had been using the Boomerang app will likely notice the changes, which mostly point towards the new items. With that, this seems like a fine step for the Boomerang app and we look forward to seeing what future updates will bring.
