Its foundations date from the 13th century and the low beamed front bar area from the 17th. It was originally called the Spotted Cow but changed its name in 1842, probably as a reaction to gambling meetings held on site. The pub is frequented mostly by university students of both Oxford University and Oxford Brookes University and tourists. It is located down a narrow winding alley, St Helens Passage originally Hell s passage , between Holywell Street and New College Lane , near the Bridge of Sighs Oxford Bridge of Sighs . Running along one side of the pub is one of the remaining sections of the old city wall. Due to the mainly illegal activities of its original patrons the Turf sprang up in the area just outside of the city wall to escape the jurisdiction of the governing bodies of the local colleges. The Turf Tavern is also where former Prime Minister of Australia Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke set a Guinness World Record for consuming a yard glass of ale in 11 seconds. Local legend has it that it was at the Turf Tavern where former U.S. president Bill Clinton , while attending Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar , infamously did not inhale .

TURF Analysis , an acronym for Total Unduplicated Reach and Frequency , is a type of statistical analysis used for providing estimates of media or market potential and devising optimal communication and placement strategies given limited resources. Although originally used by media schedulers to maximize reach and frequency of media spending across different items print, broadcast, etc. , T.U.R.F. is now used to determine what drivers motivate consumers to purchase a certain product. This in turn can help companies determine which products and or services to offer, and just as importantly, which not to offer. In a research context, TURF analysis provides estimates of market potential. TURF analysis identifies the number of users reached by a communication, and how often they are reached. It can also be used to study their frequency of use of a particular product configured in a certain way. For example, if a company plans to market a new yogurt, they may consider launching ten possible flavors, but in reality, only three might be purchased in large quantities. The TURF algorithm identifies the optimal product line to maximize the total number of consumers who will purchase at least one Stock keeping unit SKU and, at the same time, minimize consumer overlap across the flavors. TURF analysis provides marketing managers with the following information Number of consumers who will use each offering in the product line reach advertising reach Volume and frequency of usage for each offering in the product line Nature of consumers usage among offerings in the product line External links http www.pstat.com index.html P STAT, a software for TURF Analysis .

It had a patented layered structure which included a shock pad between the artificial grass and the asphalt sub surface. ref U.S. Patent number 3661687, inventors Arthur F. Spinney and Lawrence J. Warnalis ref It was manufactured by American Biltrite. History Poly Turf was the artificial turf football field surface installed at the City of Miami owned Orange Bowl game Orange Bowl and utilized throughout much of the 1970s. The stadium was used primarily by the University of Miami and the Miami Dolphins , as well as during several Super Bowl games. The first Super Bowl played on artificial turf was played on the Poly Turf covered Orange Bowl in Miami, on January 17, 1971, when the Indianapolis Colts 1970 Baltimore Colts defeated the Dallas Cowboys 16 13 at Super Bowl V . Over the years, the field began to deteriorate and some football players suffered an increasing number of leg and ankle injuries some players claimed to trip over seams. The field discolored from green to blue due to the severe Ultraviolet UV nature of the Miami sun. Eventually the City of Miami replaced the surface with real grass, which is softer and less prone to deterioration.
