This is my first review here in Oss and Roll. I’ve been working on my passing since the last quarter of 2012. Though I still haven’t morphed into a Rodolfo Viera, I still try to emulate some of Jiu jitsu’s finest passers. Based on my white belt notes, there are basically two types of passes. You can successfully hit a pass when you are fast or when you are putting pressure on an opponent. Switching from speed to pressure passes can tremendously increase the success rate of your passing game.

In this review, I will take a closer look at Rafael Lovato Jr’s Pressure Passing System. I was able to study bits of his Pressure Passing System in DVD, and I’ve been trying my best to implement his style on my game. I was also lucky enough to watch a webinar he did recently in Oklahoma.

What is Everything Else?

Everything Else is a product category on Amazon that is meant to be a catch-all for items that don’t fit into any other categories. Over time, as the Amazon catalog has grown and more specific product categories have been added, Everything Else has become less useful and more of a junkyard for cast off and forgotten listings.

Until recently, however.

Why are items listed in Everything Else when they shouldn’t be?

The answer to this is fairly simple. Some sellers are using Everything Else as an opportunity to get around Amazon’s gated category requirements. For example, DVDs with an MSRP of over $25 are now gated  Selling certain products and bran… More and require permission to list. So we’ve seen some sellers create new listings in Everything Else to get around these requirements. We’ve noticed similar “workarounds” for other gated or restricted  Selling certain product categorie… More categories as well.

Amazon doesn’t like this. It just makes the catalog more of a mess than it already is and ends up creating a worse customer experience.
