Hello World

There is always a bit of awkwardness in a first interaction, so I will break the ice with an introduction.  My name is Phil.  I am 24, live in New York City, and work in finance which I was trained to do at the illustrious Stern school of business at NYU.  Beyond any formal training, finance, business, and the confluence of the two are subjects I’ve been interested in for quite some time now.

I recently built a site: www.wrestlingontv.com.  I was (and still am) a huge fan of amateur wrestling, but find it very hard to track when the world’s oldest (as in first sport in almost every culture known to man) and greatest sport will be on TV, or even streaming on the internet.  I’m guessing the same problem goes for a lot of fans of non revenue, tertiary sports.  So, I am trying to develop a scalable model to track all of the wonderful coverage that my sport deserves and make it easy for others to know when they can enjoy this coverage.

I started with close zero technical ability (unless you count building really long formulas in excel, or that one week in 8th grade I spent learning BASIC in the hills of Western Massachusetts).  Therefore, I thought it would be helpful to document some of the resources I used to learn a bit of PHP, Drupal, MySQL, etc.  Also, I have a much more ambitious and involved project which will hopefully develop over the next several weeks and months which will be a lot of fun to write about.

While I’m keeping the newer project a bit of a secret for now (something most VCs would probably frown upon and call me paranoid for), I think that a lot of what I’m learning about SEO, databases, etc will be worthwhile to post.

I also am excited to write about my thoughts on the economics behind everything from Night Life to Brooklyn Kickball.  Please stay tuned, and send me an email if you are so inclined.

    suppose you added a little information? I ain’t saying your content isn’t good, however suppose
    you added a post title that makes people desire more?
    I mean Hello World – Phil Strazzulla's Blog is a
    little plain. You could peek at Yahoo’s
    front page and note how they create article titles to grab people interested.
    You might add a related video or a pic or two
    to grab people excited about what you’ve written.
    In my opinion, it could make your blog a little livelier.

  2. For most up-to-date information you have to pay a visit world wide web and on internet I found this
    web page as a most excellent web site for most recent updates.

    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.

    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.

    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one
    or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?

  15. I’m amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter a blog that’s equally educative and
    interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit
    the nail on the head. The problem is an issue that too few folks are
    speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy I found this in my search for something relating to this.

  16. I do accept as true with all the concepts you’ve introduced
    to your post. They are really convincing and will certainly work.

    Still, the posts are very quick for novices. May just you please extend them a little
    from subsequent time? Thanks for the post.

  22. I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet
    I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for
    me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers
    made good content as you did, the web will be
    a lot more useful than ever before.

  26. Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?

    I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m
    having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design and style seems
    different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

  27. I got this website from my friend who shared with me about this web site and at the
    moment this time I am browsing this site and reading very informative articles or reviews at this place.

  29. Heya i am for the first time here. I came across this board and I to find It really helpful & it helped me out a lot.
    I’m hoping to provide one thing again and help others such as you aided me.

  30. Hey there, I think your website might be having browser compatibility issues.
    When I look at your blog site in Opera, it looks fine but when opening
    in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, awesome blog!

  32. Hi there! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site
    mobile friendly? My website looks weird when viewing from my iphone.
    I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to
    fix this problem. If you have any suggestions, please share.
    Thanks!

  33. Hey! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you
    using for this site? I’m getting tired of
    Wordpress because I’ve had problems with hackers and
    I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would
    be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  34. Hello I am so glad I found your web site, I really found you by mistake, while I was looking on Bing for something else,
    Regardless I am here now and would just like to say kudos for a fantastic post and a all
    round enjoyable blog (I also love the theme/design), I don’t have
    time to look over it all at the minute but I have book-marked it and also
    added your RSS feeds, so when I have time I will be back to read
    a lot more, Please do keep up the fantastic jo.

  35. Oh my goodness! Incredible article dude! Thank you, However I am encountering
    difficulties with your RSS. I don’t understand
    why I am unable to subscribe to it. Is there anybody getting similar RSS issues?
    Anybody who knows the answer will you kindly respond?
    Thanks!!

  41. It’s really a great and useful piece of information. I am satisfied that you shared this helpful info with us.
    Please stay us up to date like this. Thank you for sharing.

  42. Sind solche Belege es gibt kein oder gehen sie verloren, kann als Ersatz
    ein Eigenbeleg erstellt werden. Zumeist werden Eigenbelege vom
    Unternehmer selbst oder von leitenden Angestellten ausgestellt, die hierzu bevollmächtigt sind.
    Eigenbelege dienen vorm Finanzamt als Ersatz für Rechnungen oder Quittungen. Hierbei gilt jedoch grundsätzlich jeden Beleg aufzubewahren und zeitnah einen Eigenbeleg zu erstellen. Sie dokumentieren tatsächlich stattgefundene
    Geschäftsvorgänge und machen diese bei Prüfungen durch die
    Finanzbehörden, Wirtschaftsprüfer oder die Rechnungsprüfung als Einnahme oder Ausgabe kenntlich.

    Aktiv werden, wenn Belege fehlen? Das Fehlen von Originalbelegen kann verschiedene Ursachen haben. Der
    Zahlungsempfänger kann vergessen haben, einen Beleg
    auszustellen, oder hat für den Empfang von Trinkgeld keine Quittung ausgestellt.
    Ist keine dritte Person oder kein drittes Unternehmen an der Transaktion beteiligt, wird nicht immer ein Beleg ausgestellt; unter diesen Umständen muss ein Eigenbeleg angefertigt werden, um den Geschäftsvorgang zu dokumentieren. Für außerplanmäßige
    Abschreibungen wie Verderb, Lagerabbau oder Diebstahl ist die Erstellung eines Eigenbelegs
    notwendig. Originalbelege können Weg oder vernichtet worden sein. Schließlich hinterlässt kein Dieb eine Quittung.
    Für die Abrechnung von Reisekosten oder Verpflegungsmehraufwendungen (sprich:
    Spesen) für einen Unternehmer oder Angestellten liegt nicht immer ein Beleg vor.

  43. Hey there! Do you use Twitter? I’d like to follow you if
    that would be okay. I’m undoubtedly enjoying your blog and look forward to new posts.

  44. Hi there just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the images aren’t loading
    properly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue.

    I’ve tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same
    results.

  47. A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.
    I believe that you need to publish more about this subject matter, it might not be a taboo matter but usually people don’t talk about these subjects.
    To the next! Best wishes!!

  48. I do agree with all of the ideas you have introduced on your
    post. They are very convincing and will definitely work.
    Nonetheless, the posts are very short for starters.
    Could you please lengthen them a little from subsequent time?
    Thank you for the post.
