How to build muscle in your body with the help of a popular supplement
May 18th, 2012 by Admin
If youre into weightlifting or follow sports on even a superficial level, youve probably heard of creatine.

May 18th, 2012 by Admin
A recent article (pdf) in the Journal of Marketing studied the impact that third-party reviews (TPRs) of new products can have on stock prices.
Third party reviews (TPRs) are simply reviews by professionals and media that are independent of the sellers of the product.
The article studies the impact movie reviews had on the stock price of the parent company. The authors looked at movie releases in 2005-2006 and studied the critics reviews from major newspapers and entertainment media.
