Use Google's undocumented spellcheck API to make spelling correction suggestions.
# Unfortunately, Google doesn't return the actual string it is suggesting
# replacements for, so this got a little complicated. Fork and improve!

require 'nokogiri'
# > Spellcheck.correct("Ths is a tst")
# => "This is a test"
# > Spellcheck.correct("My nme is Robrt Whtney")
# => "My name is Robert Whitney"

Created July 3, 2012 03:37
Simple drag/drop reordering of records in an ActiveAdmin view table
# http://stackoverflow.com/a/8936202
#
# ActiveAdmin already includes the necessary jquery in active_admin/base,
# so just add this to javascripts/active_admin.js after //= require active_admin/base
#
#
# Serialize and Sort
#
# model_name - you guessed it, the name of the model we are calling sort on.
# This is the actual variable name, no need to change it.
