The Back9Network asks if this is the greatest trick shot video ever.  After viewing the remarkable footage of the Bryan brothers having a lot of fun with basketballs and golf balls, my first question was "How many shots did it take for them to get these shots right?"

These millenials are certainly having fun on a golf course.  I'd be willing to bet that they are also pretty good golfers watching their hand/eye coordination. While it may not take much skill to hit a basketball with a golf club, putting that basketball through a hoop from 10 meters away certainly does.

”OLD MAN WINTER” AND WATER DAMAGE
With Winter comes the inevitable deluge of rain. Just like a good raincoat, your home needs proper protection to prevent costly water damage. Moisture inside the home also leads to mold, which causes health problems and can be difficult to remediate. Water leakage from indoor plumbing is a less obvious threat, but causes equally severe damage. Water damage is now the number one cause of homeowner claims. A recent research paper released in February of 2014 by the Canadian institute of Actuaries outlines that data collected by the Insurance Bureau of Canada indicates that water damage is the leading cause of loss with respect to both the number of claims (48%) and the paid dollars of claims (47%). By comparison, fires represented only 4% with respect to the number of claims and 31% of paid dollars towards claims!
