Bottle (12)
"This is also notably toasty but more aromatically complex with plenty of sauvage character adding interest to the somber dark berry fruit and earth scents. There are also plenty of soil tones present on the muscular and solidly intense middle weight flavors that possess a persistent and rustic but not really especially austere finale. This is a quality villages fashioned in a toasty style." (88-91 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound #57, Jan. 2015)

The makers of a new film titled 'Devil's Due' were not contented to limit the scares to movie theaters. They went on to carry out a prank on unsuspecting New Yorkers using a devil baby. The baby is an animatronic robot that is in a stroller that is remote-controlled.
The baby cries to lure passersby to the stroller. Once they are close enough, things take a turn for the worse. The baby suddenly sits up and emits some blood curdling screams. People described the screams as demonic wails too.
The baby is also capable of hand gestures that are not exactly pleasing and vomiting too. People get what they say is the shock of their lives on encountering this. The devilish prank has been fraying the nerves of many New Yorkers.
The prank was filmed from hidden cameras and the video posted on you tube. It is titled 'Devil Baby Attack'. So far, it has generated more than three million views. There is no dialogue in the video, just screams and this is quite understandable. Of all the people caught on camera, only one gentleman has the nerves of steel to persevere the scary encounter.
The movie 'Devil's Due' is already out and premiered on 17th January, 2014. It stars Allison Miller, Sam Anderson and Zach Gilford. It is directed by Eli Roth.
Those who have watched the publicity stunt video have differing thought from the creators of the 'Devil Baby Attack' video. Most agree that the creators have a sick sense of humor while others enjoy the fun in the video. Yet others have drawn comparisons of the creators to famous Ian Duncan Smith.
Roth says the movie is smart, inventive, creative and quite funny. It is also very scary. One wonders what is more scary, the movie or the unexpected distressing publicity stunt.

Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle is throwing her support behind an 8th District Congressional candidate she believes will have answers to problems facing the county and Illinois.
Preckwinkle announced Tuesday she will host a fundraiser for Raja Krishnamoorthi, former deputy state treasurer and current president of Sivananthan Laboratories, on Oct. 12.
"Raja's focus on empowering small businesses is the exact type of economic policy we need right now," Preckwinkle said in a statement. "Raja knows that small businesses are the key to economic prosperity and middle class job creation."
Krishnamoorthi is going after the district currently represented by Joe Walsh. His competition for the seat, Tammy Duckworth, was endorsed last month by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.).
"I respect Senator Durbin," said Krishnamoorthi at the time, "but the economic suffering millions of Americans face today means this election will be decided by the candidate who best demonstrates a depth of experience, passion, and ideas for creating jobs and helping the middle class. I respectfully submit that candidate will be me."
Krishnamoorthi raised more than $412,000 in his first five weeks of fundraising in the 2nd quarter, his campaign points out, and support continues to roll in.

Boardrooms should focus on the social line as well as bottom line
Earlier today, Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce released its latest Economic Review which underlined the skills issues faced by the region, whilst official figures this morning show national economic growth increased by 0.4%, compared with 0.3% in each of 2017's first two quarters. Here, Waheed Saleem sets out his thoughts on the UK's economic model.
The political party conferences are over, amidst the P45's, coughs and cult 'sing along', one significant policy difference that has emerged but has had very little coverage is the economic model for the UK.
The Prime Minister was quick to make a major defence of the free market economy, to respond to the 'interventionist' policy announcements from Jeremy Corbyn and John McDonnell. The political consensus of economic liberalism post 1980's, championed by both Conservative and Labour Governments, has been challenged by the election of Mr Corbyn as Labour leader, who has very clearly redefined the economic policy of the Labour Party and rejected the 'New Labour' project embracing economic liberalism as part of the modernisation of the party and reintroducing the collective organising principles, without reinstating 'clause 4.'
The socialist principles of nationalisation – or shall I say re-nationalisation – of key industries has become a popular notion amongst the electorate. The YouGov poll in May 2017 asked the public if certain industries should be run by the public or private sector. The poll provided very interesting reading, with the majority of electorate wanting the following industries nationalised: Royal Mail (65%), rail companies (60%), water companies (59%), energy companies (53%).
Although nationalisation is stronger amongst Labour voters there is a shift in traditional Conservative voters, with 40% in favour.
The public are increasingly frustrated with the 'fat cat' profits that are made by businesses in monopoly markets, whilst providing deteriorating services and price increases, hitting people from all social classes. The privatisation programme has not worked in the industries that provide key services in what, in effect, are monopoly markets. The rail, water and energy regulators have not manged to provide robust regulation that puts customers first and enables a better balance between making profit to reinvest in the company and profits for owners who are often foreign companies and sovereign funds who in some cases avoid paying taxes in the UK.
The House of Commons Public Accounts Committee, under the chairmanship of the formidable Margaret Hodge, bought to light the unacceptable position of large multinational corporations who, despite making significant profits from customers in the UK, have avoided multibillion pounds of taxes. Google paid £6m in tax on a turnover of £395m, an effective tax rate of 0.02%, with Amazon paying no corporation tax on sales of £3.3bn! Although this is legal, morally this questionable and exposes the lax powers of HMRC to take big businesses to task on their ability to manipulate the complicated tax rules of the UK.
This inequity of big business being able to 'get away' with playing the system, whilst ordinary people are unable to 'make ends meet' and feel the brunt of the continuous economic austerity of low wages, higher prices and uncertainty of employment may explain why people are starting to question the 'laissez faire' economic approach as the dominate economic theorem of western democracy. A new approach to economic policy based on an inclusive growth agenda, where the benefit of economic growth is shared more equably and those who can need to contribute more for the well-being of the wider society is required.
Although I have been on record as a 'remainer', as a democrat I accept the referendum result and therefore the refining of the economic policy will need to be in the context of what's best in the interests of the UK. The Government will have significant control of setting the economic policy outside the EU. However, it is important that the Government does not go down the route of extreme version of 'laissez faire', removing the hard-fought social and worker rights, but a more inclusive economic policy that involves wealth distributed on the principles of equality for all.
This starts with the refining the tax system to ensure multi-national companies cannot play the tax system for their advantage, Governments taking an active interventionist approach to distributing wealth and the creation of wealth, through planned interventionist economic policy including nationalising key industries, utilising the levers of the state to ensure ethical wealth creation and devolving real powers and responsibilities to regions.
There is always a role for the private sector in a mixed economy, however, it must work towards inclusive outcomes and for the good of society. The rules must be fair and companies must not find complex ways and means to circumvent the rules. The question in boardrooms must not only be about the bottom line but about the 'social line'. Every company must consider what social outcomes they will provide as well as how to increase shareholder value. The value of society will in the long-term benefit us all. Every investment decision should have social and moral outcome measures; boardrooms should be asking themselves what legacy we wish to leave behind.
It is unfortunate that we must go back 100 years or so to find truly moral businesses, the likes of Cadbury and Rowntree. Not only were they profitable businesses but also played significant part in the local community and helped their workers and invested in the local infrastructure. Their legacy is still lauded even today. The question for us is who are today's Cadburys?

OPPO have become a name to be reckoned with in Australia – its products are technically advanced and extremely well made. In 2015, its R7 and R7 Plus (predecessors) received iTWire's recommendation as the best two mid-market smart phones that punch very far above their weight.
In fact, since moving retail distribution to JB Hi-Fi and carrier plans via Optus, OPPO has become one of the top smartphones by market share in Australia in Q1. It's a cool brand to own!
OPPO have made the R9 Plus' distinguishing feature a 16MP front selfie camera – yes, you read that right, selfie camera. This will scoop the pool as the best 6" phablet at an irresistible price. The Oppo R9 Plus is a "phabulous" phablet.
Out of the box
Let's look at the base specifications:
- 6", AMOLED, 1920 x 1080, 367 ppi, protected by Gorilla Glass 4 – screen to body ratio is an amazing 75.3%.
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 652, eight core.
- 4GB DDR3 RAM and choice of 64/128GB (52GB free on 64GB model) with microSD up to 128GB (uses second SIM slot).
- Rear camera – 16MP, f/2.0, 77° angle, 1/2.8" sensor, 1.12 μm pixel size, phase detection second autofocus, HDR, single LED flash (missing OIS).
- Front camera – 16MP, f/2.0, 78.1° selfie with fill screen light.
- Wi-Fi AC dual band, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS, OTG support.
- Fingerprint security (fast 200ms access).
- Non-removable 4120 mAh battery, with micro-USB VOOC flash charge and cable.
- Cat 6 LTE – Bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 28, 38, 39, 40, 41.
- 163.1 x 80.8 x 7.4mm x 185g.
- Android 5.x and Colour OS 3.0 overlay.
These are all well above mid-market specifications.
The R9 Plus looks like an iPhone – that is OPPO's current design philosophy to suit its Chinese market tastes. I like its look with its very narrow bezels, elegant curved chassis lines and 2.5D glass curve.
The review unit is model X9079 for Australia. You may read overseas reviews referring to it as the Find 9 (Find is its flagship nomenclature) or F1 Plus – it is not, so just look for R9 Plus and the model number.
While it is a phablet it can definitely fit in your pocket due to the very high screen to body ratio and the 7.4mm thinness. Sure, it's a big phone, but one of the smallest 6" on the market. If you want the smaller 5.5" R9 – a prestige phone without the price tag – you can read iTWire's review here.
Setup is exceptionally fast and easy — five clicks — and you can avoid Google entirely if you wish.
It ships with a VOOC 5V/4M flash charger that actually charges two internal batteries in parallel, practically halving charge time without over dumping current into it – a great system.
Android 5.x and Colour OS 3.0
Let's just say any new phone should ship with Android 6.x and it is OPPO's intention to provide an upgrade soon. The issue is that its Colour OS 3.0 overlay (User experience – UX) is built on Android 5.x and it is one of the reasons why people from China buy this phone. It is very iOS-like and it allows you to forgo any Google apps.
It comes with OPPO's own versions of mail, contacts, phone, calendar, messages, camera, photo gallery, a security centre (including antivirus/malware and an accelerator) and basic productivity software like Kingsoft Office etc. These apps are more than adequate and comparable with most Google apps which you can download if you want.
Screen – 6" AMOLED at lemonade prices
AMOLED is great – it outperforms LCD/LED with pure blacks and almost infinite contrast. Brightness and image quality look great until you place it beside a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and see the difference – but then you are paying twice the price for the Samsung phone.
The phone app has all the usual functions. It was fast to connect, and maintained above average signal strength. The microphones on top and bottom are great for hands-free and in-call volume was good.
It has a single mono speaker that is not designed for music – use a headset.
Cat 6 LTE means a theoretical maximum download/upload of 300/50Mbps. I got between 100-200Mbps around Sydney. Most phones at this price are Cat 4 – maximum 150/50 and if you require better speed the P9 Plus is great.
The AnTuTU benchmark is 84,286 (slightly about the Samsung Galaxy Note 5). It has plenty of power and is fit for purpose with 4GB RAM making it fast and responsive.
Geekbench gives single-core 1694 and multi-core 6844 ratings. The Adreno 510 GPU will play all standard mobile games without issue.
It is placed at the top left side (like an iPhone) and has the characteristic bump ring. I prefer the camera to be below centre top as I find you can too easily place a finger over it. In all conditions it produced better than average pictures comparing favourably to many flagship cameras.
The default Colour OS camera app is simple – dumbed down may be a better way to describe it. It has HDR, Flash, time lapse, video, beauty and panorama settings. But it also has an expert mode that allows for fine adjustment to white balance, exposure, ISO, shutter speed, focus and RAW modes.
- Daylight, no flash, with HDR – 9 out of 10
Bright, accurate colours, no noise, and good definition. Autofocus was quick but tended to use the brightest areas for exposure settings. Manual focus on darker areas produced slightly better results. This is a software issue than can be addressed in future updates. HDR places no appreciable delay on autofocus.
- Daylight, no flash, without HDR – 7 out of 10
You lose definition in the shadows. Better to use HDR in all outdoor shots.
- Indoors, no flash, with HDR – 8 out of 10
Good low light capability from its f/2.0 lens and 1.12 μm pixel sensor. Good detail and colours. Autofocus is slightly slower as HDR tries to fill in what you would normally miss.
- Indoors, no flash, without HDR – 6 out of 10
I recommend you use HDR mode as colours become slightly muted and definition is lost from shadows.
- Indoors, low light, flash, with and without HDR – 6 out of 10
You cannot have HDR and flash on at the same time. HDR compensates for details, but it takes longer to autofocus and produced marginally, if any, better results than flash alone.
- Speciality shots like panorama, time-lapse, panorama, beautify etc. – 9 out of 10
Panorama was good as it stitches the shot together producing an accurate image. All speciality modes worked well.
- Video
For 4K video — 2160p x 30fps (about 6MB per second) — I give it 7 out of 10. The result is good quality, good colours, good sound, but huge file sizes. On a few occasions — mainly during fast pans — the processor seemed to slow down and missed frames.
FHD — 1080p at 30fps (about2MB/s) — 9 out of 10. Its best mode will produce more manageable file sizes. It does not shoot 60fps.
- Selfies – 10 out of 10
The 16MP, F/2.0 selfie was amazing. It has screen fill light and is optimised to take the best shots in low light, be it at night or day. It produced incredible definition. I loved the beautify 4.0 feature for removing blemishes etc., and the auto-shot gesture mode. OPPO has used an oversized, 1.12 μm pixel sensor that captures four times the incoming light of a typical selfie.
- Camera conclusion
Overall you will be delighted with the quality of the camera. Is it as good as flagships at up to twice the price?
In reference shots, it is very close to the Samsung, GS7, LG G5, and Lumia 950/XL for outdoors and loses some "acceptable" ground in low-light. It is very much ahead of the 6S Plus in outdoor and on a par in low light.
And it's a step up from the 13MP snapper in the R9.
Battery – non-removable
The 4120 mAh battery easily gave two full days of use. My worst time was just under 15 hours using Bluetooth, GPS, Wi-Fi and lots of video and web surfing.
But the real winner is VOOC fast charge – 30 minutes for 70% and a full charge in under an hour. You can get a VOOC car charger as well.
The secret to VOOC is that the battery is split in two, with each part getting its own charging board and power channel. This speeds up charging greatly – VOOC is the most efficient fast charging solution out there.
Price and availability
In Australia, OPPO has teamed up with electronics retailer JB Hi-Fi and its phones are offered by Optus stores for outright purchase or on a plan.
Official release is 4 July and the price is an amazing $699.
When OPPO first came to Australia I made the mistake of calling its phones "cheap". OPPO's response was that they were not cheap but reflected the proper cost of development, materials, manufacturing, distribution, retailer profit, and, of course, their owners' return on investment.
When teardowns indicate that the maximum cost of parts in a flagship phone is about US$200, then you start to see why OPPO have taken a scant two years to be one of the top brands. Simply put, it makes good phones with the features everyone wants at affordable prices.
I like bigger screen phones – phablets. For me it is a function of needing glasses for reading and wanting to do a little more than I can on a smaller screen. I really pity those stuck in "yesterday" with a 4" screen.
Where OPPO have been clever is the high screen to body ratio of 75.3%. If you look at say the iPhone 6S Plus with a 5.5" screen and (67.7%) it is easy to see why this 6" screen will be popular.
OPPO R9 Plus (6" screen) 163.1 x 80.8 x 7.4mm
iPhone 6S Plus (a 5.5" screen) 158.2 x 77.9 x 7.3 mm
The R9 is 4.9mm taller and 2.9mm wider for a half inch (12.5mm) larger screen than the 6S Plus.
It is also more than just a larger version of the OPPO R9. The improvements here in processor speed, rear camera, battery life, Wi-Fi AC Dual band, NFC make this my choice. The R9 is good – the Plus is great. It gets my unreserved recommendation as a mid-market phone and offers features you would expect in a flagship for a far better price.

Summer is coming and it will be time to choose a cute pair of open toe sandals for my toddler. I am excited for the sun and the extra outdoor time during the light evenings. I am also feeling a little sad.
I will miss my Daughter in her wellies. It has now come to that point where they have become too small and will be packed away in my memory box. Usually people keep first vests, socks and trinkets. I have all those things but i cannot part with these little wellies. We have taken many Uk breaks in these wellies, jumped in too many muddy puddles and even had plenty of tantrums. Proud moments of first steps, farm visits and late night walks with an over tired toddler are just a few more of the lovely memories i have.
Have you got an unusual item that you cannot bare to part with?

Anguine : Pertaining to, or or similar to snakes or serpents; snakelike
Greetings, Artwiculati! And welcome to an RT round-up brought to you by the left fork of @TheSupercargo's cleft tongue.
You think that was convoluted? Have you not read today's twisted tweets, serpentine stories, worm-eaten tales or writhing words?
Given what I take to be a predominance of Artwiculati from the Judaeo-Christian tradition, we had a number of Biblical references today.
I've boiled them down to two. Viz:
RT @helacious Eve took heed of her anguine advisor/And skulked out of Eden sadder but wiser.
RT @harrarp Holy Moses! My rod has turned anguine again!
Loved them both, but perhaps especially @harrarp's because it got us away from the Garden.
The other motif that came up very frequently today was the contrast between Ang- and Sang-. In its purest form:
RT @SJHatzi It's hard to be sanguine about the anguine.
Indeed it is! Personally, I'm not frightened of them, I just like to be able to see the anguine in the room.
Of course, you might look at this pair from a grammatical point of view and then …
RT @PrernaMunshi "Sanguine", I was…"Anguine", I am ! #Sixwords #artwiculate
And here's a bucolic, not to say riverine, scene from @chemingineer
RT @chemingineer The anguine river meandered and lost itself in the sanguine horizon. #artwiculate
Chemical engineering, rivers and blood coloured sludge = Hungary! Let me quickly distance myself from that bit of tastelessness. [This is a current-at-the-time-news reference to the collapse of the walls of a holding pond for chemical sludge in Hungary. See here https://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/oct/05/hungary-toxic-sludge-spill .]
The little pun-shaped space inside me was well-filled by contributions regarding today's word.
RT @kado56 Man suffers sudden anguine attack after years of kicking his ' eels
RT @smeedha Anguine excitement: hissteria
RT @Gardencomet RIP Lady Anguine – she slithered into the pit
RT @pn8r He reminisced about his first girlfriend. She was anguine – she had a nice asp.
RT @lagadu123 I only realised he was anguine when he two-tined me.
(Geddit? 🙂 )
Snake oil (a substance that has graced our tweets on more than one occasion in the past) also put in more than one appearance.
RT @I2Haiku Drink Anguine Absinthe, it's not your usual snake oil. #Artwiculate
RT @bookdreamer Ladies! Anguine-oil guaranteed to put a rattle in your man's roll #artwiculate
And as we move into the Tropic of Serpens. (I'm TRYING to reference Henry Miller!)
RT @ariandalen Ah, Mistress Anguine: she'll wrap around you and squeeze tightly, until you're breathless. #artwiculate
RT @MaxRaunchiness The anguine redhead took me to her place for some cold-blooded bondage. Serpentine was the safe word.
RT @californiakara Little Max (Raunchiness) is anguine. #thatisall
RT @profitsee Christine Anguine Aguilera new dance hit: Do The Ouroboros To Me #artwiculate
And to close off that, and since @profitsee's tweet carried us to the edge of the gnostic:
RT @Eridanus On the Ecliptic, anguine Ophiuchus separates Serpens Caput from Serpens Cauda. "Snakes on an Astral Plane"?
There were several attempts today to "do" something with Snakes on a Plane; that was the one I felt most satisfactory.
Where next? Well more about snakes I suppose.
RT @FrankSiddarta Sanguine was a happy snake
I like that. Could be the first line of a children's story. Perhaps not this though …
RT @TiddK The early bird gets the anguine – OUCH! – bye bye birdie… #artwiculate
Oh dear. I wonder if it was an Honduran Tangerine – no wait I mean …
RT @Phil_Rothwell The Anguine Tangerine was said to have a real bite to its flavour.. enough to give a person cottonmouth, and leave them rattled #artwiculate
And then there are those people who behave like snakes. Salesmen
RT @mrbob I'm tired of anguine salespeople. I think one might have left some of his shed skin in my office last week. #artwiculate
Politicians of a certain pursuasion.
RT @runheidi She's in possession of qualities a good Republican needs: an anguine persona and a CV of misanthropic deeds. #artwiculate
Of course some people might choose to become snakes rather than something else.
RT @marcosarroyos If the truth were told, Gregor would have preferred to become anguine rather than an insect.
It's all a bit of a gamble though, isn't it?
RT @19ish After rolling anguine-eyes at the craps table for the 3rd time in a row, Sally silently slithered away, skinned again.
Some of our recurring themes have already be referenced in this round-up. Here are a couple more. The epitaph.
RT @Wifsie RIP: My Lord Anguine – He drowned in the Serpentine. #artwiculate
The train.
RT @Tralala56 As the train snaked towards Anguine, the passengers began to feel rather queasy.
Perdiccas in the dungeon
RT @dsceiorg Perdiccas, the prisoner is sanguine. "Oh, I was hoping to make a belt of him.†#artwiculate #anguine
And somewhwere in the realm of bad dreams, in another part of the dungeon, …
RT @mortythemouth Someone tried to anguine their way in here,sliding through the hole my mind,slithering in arteries of the sublime. #Artwiculate
RT @CreoleEloquence Anguine dreams slay peace/ This dark dry October morn/ Highway sounds slither dawn into ribbons/ #artwiculate #micropoetry #haiku
I'm going to finish off with a poem. I don't often do this, but I really admire the way this scanned. Among other things. (It also appealed th the historian in me.)
RT @eilonwya10 Cleopatra, not feeling sanguine, aspired to expire; with assistance scaled & anguine, she achieved her last desire. #artwiculate
And that, my friends, is that. Big welcome greetings to new-hatched Artwiculati @CreoleEloquence & @mrbob
Greetings also to newcomers to the round-up @mortythemouth @PrernaMunshi & @profitsee who've all been playing Artwiculate awhile.
I'll do another round-up for a few days. Look out for the next on Tuesday! Bye-bye *waves*. Back to @TheSupercargo now.
Artwiculate is a game played on Twitter. Visit http://artwiculate.com for more information. The winning tweet and the most popular runners up for today's word are listed at http://www.artwiculate.com/words/Anguine (And, for addicts, don't forget Salon ArtWois at http://www.salonartwois.com/ )

Midnight Club – My Mind
With electronic music now spanning far and wide, it's nice to hear newer artists are still creating disco and funk-infused dance music. The duo have been going for just under a year, producing what can only be described as feel-good disco. Think Duck Sauce meets Justice. 'My Mind' is no different, sampling Rufus' 1978 record … Continue reading
RÜFÜS/RÜFÜS DU SOL – Say A Prayer For Me
Though RÜFÜS are perhaps usually known for upbeat, dancey records, they show a moodier, melodic side in 'Say A Prayer For Me'. Like what you hear? Their album, Bloom, came out on Friday!

EA on Spore DRM debacle: There's been no change in basic policy
Speaking to Gamasutra, EA's said that Spore's DRM system is essentially the same as the disc-and-key method used in previous games.
"EA has not changed our basic DRM copy protection system," said EA's corporate communications boss, Mariam Sughayer.
"We simply changed the copy protection method from using the physical media, which requires authentication every time you play the game by requiring a disc in the drive, to one which uses a one-time online authentication."
Spore's received a battering from "the internet" since it was launched for using the SeruROM DRM system, and is currently being heavily pirated.

How To Profit On Amazon By Selling Name Brand Products
With ZERO Advertising Spend, Without New Products, and Without Creating New Listings!
Click here to enroll!
Did you know that you can
build a profitable Amazon FBA business by
selling products people ALREADY want to BUY?
And these products are big brand name products (products like Beats by Dr. Dre, Apple, etc.).
These are products people already know, products that are ALREADY selling.
You see, many Amazon sellers are
right now...
Because people are telling them they need to either create something completely new, or worse...
Dropship the cheapest items they can find on Alibaba.
Why reinvent the wheel with a new product? Or settle for the low quality products from Alibaba?
Because you know what, you
do not need to do any of that
to succeed on Amazon.
Hi, my name is Beau Crabill – and in just a few minutes, I will be showing how YOU can sell brand name products on Amazon…
But first, let me tell you a story about how this all started with a pair of socks... (don't worry, it relates a LOT to what you'll be learning).
So, in the 8th grade Nike came out with some new socks called "Nike Elite Socks".
These socks cost
$12 a pair
but that did not stop anyone from buying them.
People loved these socks and wanted as many as possible, but there was one problem - there were only 4 colors available...
So I saw the demand and had an
amazing idea...
"What if I dyed these white and black socks into different colors and sold them?"
It seemed like a great idea to me, so I went ahead and bought 6 pairs of Nike Elite socks and some dye (with money I saved up picking up dog poop from my neighbors yard!)
The next day, I went to school and
sold ALL 6 PAIRS FOR $25! That's $150!
All kids at school went crazy over these! And I made $1,200 before the principal told me I had to stop selling on school grounds.
And this is what got me into selling products online...
You can read the full story here
In fact... I became so committed to building this business, I turned down a $70,000 athletic scholarship...
So, you're probably wondering "Beau, this is great, but what does this have to do with selling with Amazon FBA?"
Well, the answer is simple.
The story I told you just now illustrates
Buy Low...
Sell High...
Sell What People Are Already Buying From A Trusted Source!
This sounds simple...
But you wouldn't believe how many Amazon sellers aren't following these principles and still wondering why they aren't seeing success.
Now, the business model I'm about to show you is
very, very simple.
And it's
very scalable.
But, let me be clear about what this business model
is NOT.
It is NOT dropshipping products from Alibaba.
It is NOT about buying products, private-labelling them, and wasting money on PPC ads building your 'brand'.
It is NOT dumpster-diving looking for the cheapest products and spending hours creating listings and descriptions.
The model I'm about to you show you is an old and proven system - but for some reason, people have forgotten about it.
What am I talking about?
I am talking about
More specifically,
online retail.
When you think about it,
Amazon is basically a large ONLINE SHOPPING MALL.
And when you sell on Amazon, you can choose what type of business you want to have.
You can open up your own shop, build and sell your own products, promote your own brand - like a Mom-and-Pop shop.
You can open up a store and sell other PROVEN and TRUSTED brand-name products - like large retail stores (Walmart, Macy's, Target, etc.)
Now, you've probably heard the statistics about how 95% of businesses fail...
How many of the 95% do you think were Mom-and-Pop shops and how many of those were retail stores?
So with that in mind, which type of business would you want?
I don't know about you, but for me I would choose the
every single time.
But you might be thinking, "Beau, that sounds great - but not everyone has the money to start a retail store like Walmart."
Well, you're right. And you're wrong.
You see, Walmart has to pay for a LOT of expenses and infrastructure to make their business profitable.
Employees, warehouse, customer service, delivery... and not to mention the actual cost of the products...
BUT, that's the beauty of starting
an Amazon FBA business
There's NO warehouse, NO employees, NO customer service costs...
All of this is taken care of by Amazon FBA!
And if you want to know which products are the BEST to sell...
I go over all of that and more on the video below. Check it out!
I've spent the past decade of my life learning about ecommerce and building my business into what it is today. And now I want to show you how you can do it too.
Simply apply by clicking the button below today!
Click Here to Enroll!
The last important step to make this entire business model work is to sell
brand name products legally
This business model will NOT work if you are buying brand name products from outlet stores (that's how I got my first Amazon seller account banned...)
What you'll need to do is buy from
Authorized Suppliers
These are suppliers who have been given permission to sell brand name products to retailers.
If you want to sell brand name products on Amazon, you'll need to contact authorized suppliers.
And I'm going to be going over all of this in the course, Online Retail Mastery.

Allow me a little rant here please. I don't know if it's because people think that Gurgaon residents are all young "MNC" employees, DINKs or whatever other acronym suits a majority of us and therefore super rich, or because they think we're just stupid, but things here are just too expensive.
My husband and I were in Galleria recently looking for a place to get a haircut for him and for our two year old. We went to some random place (I forget what it was called), but they had several people in queue. So we walked around and eventually stumbled into Habib's. Guess how much they charge for a men's haircut? 450!!! What the hell? I'm a girl and I've barely ever paid that much even for my haircut, and when I did pay 450, it was for the super luxury of the place, and not for a shabby place like this particular Habib's. Anyway, I digress....guess how much they wanted for my two year old boy's haircut? 250!! His head is the size of a tiny melon right now...how much hair could it have on it to warrant that kind of a rate? Anyway, by the time we found out what they charge, my husband had already been seated for his "free" shampoo along with the haircut. I'm not even embarassed to tell you that we got up and left when we found out how much it cost even though they had already started! And you should have seen the expression on my face when the guy told me the haircut cost 450. It was really priceless even if I do say so myself!
Anyway, we eventually ended up finding another local men's parlor in South City II, close to where we live, and guess how much they charge? Rs. 30. That's it. Fair and square. It takes 5 minutes, they take 30 bucks, they're happy we're happy. Can you imagine the difference in the two rates though? What the hell do the Habib's people DO to your hair to make them feel justified in charging 15 times as much as a regular place? Obviously there is some difference in the level of service and pampering, and of course the brandname, but none of this makes them worth 15 times as much. I know I waste a lot of money and end up paying more for everything a lot of times, but this one somehow touched a nerve and made me think enough is enough already.
So for the last two days, I've been feeling really happy about the hundreds of rupees we saved on those two haircuts and also really motivated to hunt out cheaper places for everyday things rather than running off to the malls for stuff.
Anyway, thanks for listening to this rant and do let me know if you feel the same way.

How much is your haircut?
Allow me a little rant here please. I don't know if it's because people think that Gurgaon residents are all young "MNC" employees, DINKs or whatever other acronym suits a majority of us and therefore super rich, or because they think we're just stupid, but things here are just too expensive.

you're right. i guess it's like going to a five star and then complaining that it's too expensive:-)
by the way, what do i need to do to be able to contribute to your healthy and tasty blog??

That is one question that intrigues me too. In contemporary times, I pay Rs. 25 + 5 tip in Yelahanka, Bangalore; I paid Rs. 75 in Chennai; Rs 40 in Chandigarh; Rs 30 in IIT, New Delhi and CAD 8 + $2 tip in Toronto in an Asian hair styling saloon; CAD 12.00 + tip in the usual working people saloons around Toronto. Rs 450 in Gurgaon appears a bit...bitter steep, I should say. Yes you are brave to have walked away.

It sure is steep. You are right, its just for the pampering. I must admit that I always go to Hair and Shanti in Ambi mall to get a haircut. And its expensive there as well, but no where near as much as Rs 450.
By the way, I redesigned my site: www.gurgaonwatch.com :)

Hey Vaibhav...new site looks great!! I wish I knew how to do cool things with this blog too...it's on my to do list to learn, but I just never get to it:-)

I totally know the feeling, living here for 2 yrs. 450 n above for a haircut is supposed to make u feel like million dollars isn't it? but sad, thats not how it works in gugaon. steep prices n shabby service.

i cut my daughter's hair (first one) at Sylvie & Tushar"s in Supermart 1. 200 bucks, lovely service (unfussy, regular that helped my daughter be calm) and kind words about my daughter from Sylvie which put a smile on my face :-) Recommend it for little boys and girls

Its not about Gurgaon. Or that its presued the outsiders are trated as fool.
You will find the variance in price for everything in every city.
Most probably the Habib's mentioned by you must also be an outsider.
Maybe you haven't seen the real Gurgaon. Its way too normal city.

what a luck.. I never discovered this blog, all the while I was in Gurgaon..
I used to go to Finesse in Metropolitan mall for my hair cut.. They always gave me the best style that suited me.. and yeah it was worth it.. :-)

So much is being said about GGN being way too expensive yet we keep giving in...its a reaction which triggers one commodity price hike to another commodity price hike....most of my frens opted out of GGN for the same reason.

I won't mind shedding bucks from the pocket if the haircut is worth that much money. But can't deny, that getting a haircut is getting much too expensive.
Infact, Am looking for a really good hairdresser for quite a sometime. Please suggest me from where can I get a decent restyling done in Gurgaon?

hello frens m lukin 4 a gud hair stylin salon at gurgaon..plz can u suggest sum..!!

We almost missed out talking to Tony Tyler in Hong Kong.
A couple of days before the scheduled interview, Cathay Pacific called to cancel as something urgent had come up. All meetings for that day had to be dropped because of an important meeting.
But we pushed on and managed to get a small window at eight the next morning. We were told to wrap up filming within the hour. Tyler had a board meeting straight after, before catching a flight later that day. We were definitely getting glimpses of how intense a day could be for the Chief Executive of Cathay Pacific, where everything moves fast and furious.
Although we had spoken before, I was thrilled to finally meet him in person. Despite his hectic schedule, Tyler had a big smile for me and my crew. He was ready to roll and under the hot camera lights, Tyler answered all the questions in rapid fire, frank and provocative at some parts.
At one point, he tells me he's been misquoted about some of his plans and sets the record straight. Despite all the competition, Tyler knows his trump card is China. Through subsidiary Dragonair and partner Air China, Tyler is clearly the envy of his rivals wanting a slice of the China market.

GRAPHDECO Research team
GRAPHics and DEsign with hEterogeneous COntent
- Leader : George Drettakis
- Type : Project team
- Research center(s) : Sophia
- Field : Perception, Cognition and Interaction
- Theme : Interaction and visualization
Team presentation
Despite significant progress in Computer Graphics, HCI and Computer Vision, creating, manipulating and displaying high-quality visual content remains reserved to a small, well-trained professional elite. We believe that this difficult access is largely due to the core theoretical foundations of Computer Graphics, which were developed for accurate and complete synthetic content. The goal of GraphDeco is to redefine these foundations so they can simultaneously account for both traditional content as well as approximate and incomplete representations captured or produced by casual users. In particular, we plan to explore two main research directions:
- First, the design and artistic principles that guide the creation of visual content need to be automated and redesigned, facilitating professional practices and making such endeavors accessible to all.
- Second, a unified representation is required to develop new computer graphics models and algorithms capable of handling traditional synthetic content as well as inaccurate and incomplete captured data.
Research themes
Images, often accompanied by sound effects, have become increasingly present in our everyday lives; this has resulted in greater needs for content creation. Despite the fact that many traditional means exist, such as photography, artistic graphic design, audio mixing, they typically still remain the reserve of the expert, and require significant investment in time and expertise.
Our main interest is computer image and sound synthesis, with an emphasis on automated methods. Our main goals include the simplification of the tasks required for the production of sound and images, as well as the development of new techniques for their generation.

Bone Broth Helps to Repair Your Teeth

Some foods are known to be bad for your teeth, like candy, taffy, and sugar in general, but there are also some foods that are really good for your teeth. Eating natural foods that are not high in sugar is a good start, but some foods actually help rebuild your teeth when they are not in perfect shape.
Bone broth is one of those foods. If you eat meats as a regular part of your diet, then you may want to consider adding this broth into the rotation just a little bit more often than you would otherwise eat it.
Bone Broth Can Boost the Health of Your Teeth
Bone broth allows your body to absorb the important nutrients from within the bones of the meats you are already eating. The broth is simply made by putting bones in water and boiling.
From there, you can drink it from a mug, eat it like a soup, or use it as a base for the rest of the meals you make for the week. Having homemade broth not only helps you control what you eat, but also tastes better than the boxed stuff! If you want your body to be able to heal the most with bone broth as part of your regular diet, make sure you also get extra vitamin D (sunlight) to help boost absorption.
Most people make the automatic assumption that a cavity is just that - a hole left in your tooth to do nothing more than sit there, collect food, and rot further. However, there is some evidence that teeth can rebuild themselves to some degree with the right types of foods, just like a bone would if it broke. Add a bit of bone broth to your regular diet and see what happens to your teeth. What do you have to lose besides a cavity or two?

Google will unveil a new HealthKit-like fitness data platform at its annual Google I/O conference next week, according to reports from Forbes. The new service will be called Google Fit, and will provide a service similar to what Apple has built in HealthKit, and what Samsung has done with its equivalent platform, SAMI.
Google Fit will consolidate health data from a variety of digital health devices, predominantly activity trackers, but also medical devices like glucometers and wireless blood pressure cuffs. The captured data will then be stored in a central cloud-based repository where it will be available via API calls to expand the amount of personal health data available to other apps.
Analysts are predicting that Google Fit will be introduced as an enhancement to its Google Wear OS. Google Wear is a hybrid Android platform designed to power smartwatches and other wearables. The platform was created to provide Android functionality within a variety of emerging wearable form factors, while maintaining integration points with the more robust Android smartphone OS.
By entering the digital health ecosystem, Google is solidifying a trend across consumer technology to engage with consumers around health goals. Samsung was first to embrace digital health, with its core S-health app and paired Samsung Gear Fit activity tracker. Apple followed suit with its HealthKit announcement, and its highly anticipated iWatch unveil tentatively set for this coming October. Its no surprise that Google is trailing in the health sector, as the data giant has been burned by its health efforts in the past.
In 2011, Google shut down its Google Health business. Google Health was a patient portal-like service that allowed users to aggregate health and wellness data and then share that data with providers. The decision to shut the service down was explained as such:
"…Google Health is not having the broad impact that we hoped it would. There has been adoption among certain groups of users like tech-savvy patients and their caregivers, and more recently fitness and wellness enthusiasts. But we haven't found a way to translate that limited usage into widespread adoption in the daily health routines of millions of people. That's why we've made the difficult decision to discontinue the Google Health service. "
As the only technology company within the Samsung, Apple, Google trifecta with relevant digital health experience, it will be interesting to see how Google explains the decision to reintroduce a health data aggregation service. Is this effort purely designed to keep up with Apple, for no sake other than to maintain an even foot? Or does Google actually think that consumers have fundamentally changed since 2011, and that there is now an active market for this service?
The news is certainly good for digital health in general. Between Apple, Google, and Samsung, there will likely be more money spent building out these health data ecosystems and engaging consumers around their health than ever before. If these companies can incorporate enough features into their new smartwatches to build up a significant user base, the way they did with both smartphones and tablets, it would user in a new era of engaged and plugged in consumers for digital health startups to cater toward, and may result in tangible improvements to care delivery.
That's a big 'if' however, as Google knows all to well.

Taipei 228 exhibits spark controversy
GLOSSING OVER: Critics said the government had demonstrated arrogance with its interpretation of history and had disrespected the incident's victims and their families
From The Taipei Times, Feb. 20, 2011The Taipei 228 Memorial Museum is reopening its doors to the public this morning after a 10-month renovation, but its efforts to reveal the truth of the 228 Incident met with challenges as pro-independence activists and family members of the incident's victims yesterday accused the museum of glorifying the acts of the then-government and distorting the truth with its selection of documents.
Full story:
The Way It Was...
The Well of Souls: Taipei 2-28 Memorial Museum
By Stephen A. Nelson
(from The Brandon Sun, May 1, 2010)A stone's throw from the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, there is another museum; different in every way from the shrine dedicated to Chiang. This is the Taipei 2-28 Memorial Museum.
Everything about the 2-28 museum stands in stark contrast to the Chiang memorial. Instead of a great monument in the midst of a vast parade square, the 2-28 museum is a small building in quiet corner of a downtown park. If Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is the Great Pyramid of Cheops, this is the Well
of Lost Souls.
The museum stands in the shadows of the other great edifices erected by the Japanese: The presidential palace, the parliament buildings, the National Taiwan University Hospital.
And like those public buildings, this place was designed in the Asian Glory style — simple lines incorporating Western elements — that was favoured by the Japanese when they ruled Taiwan in the first half of the 20th Century.
Originally, this building was home to the Taipei Broadcasting Bureau — the model radio network set up by the Japanese for their model colony. When the Japanese were forced to surrender Taiwan at the end of the Second World War, the KMT government took over the radio network and renamed it the Taiwan Broadcasting Company.
The network played a central role in the events of the 2-28 Incident, as both sides commandeered the radio station to broadcast their messages. From here, the Taiwanese sent out their SOS to the world.
So what is the 2-28 Incident? And why should people want to remember it? My Taiwanese friends describe it as Taiwan's own Tiananmen Square Massacre, the central event that is at the heart of the story told in Formosa Betrayed: a military crackdown — carried out by Chiang's troops on February 28, 1947 — that marked the beginning of Taiwan's martial-law era. Tens of thousands "disappeared" during what became known as The White Terror.
The history books always said that the crackdown was necessary to put down an insurrection, weed out communist agents and protect Taiwan. But if history is written by the winners, this 2-28 museum tells the story of the losers. Here, the faces of those lost souls look you in the eye and silently plead with you to make sure that their stories are not forgotten...

Play a Columns Master 2 Game
Fast paced scary game where you have to match the falling coins, dried heads and scary relic tiles in groups of 3 or more. Shapes can be matched in all directions, there is a preview of the next combo and one should keep an eye on it. Lots of levels to get through. Game ends when tiles hit the roof and no more combos can be made.

Venture capital is a hard business. Ask any venture capitalist.
This won't come as any shock, but government has an especially lousy track record as an investor in developing companies. This week's bankruptcy filing by A123 Systems Inc., the Waltham battery company that received more than $130 million in federal support, is just the latest example.
The government directed federal stimulus money to A123 — it didn't actually buy stock in the business — hoping those funds would create jobs and help grow a new alternative energy industry in America.
There are lots of other well-known government investment busts, both nationally and locally. Before A123, the bankruptcy of federally supported green energy giant Solyndra made national waves last year. Closer to home, Evergreen Solar and its big plant in Devens went bust despite tens of millions of dollars from the state.
The federal government is hardly the only investor that stands to lose money on A123. Venture capitalists — real VCs — put hundreds of millions of dollars into the company with mixed results. Public investors spent more than $500 million buying A123 shares in company stock offerings since 2009. General Electric Co. owns nearly 5 percent of the company.
One important distinction: All those other investors had clear financial goals when they bought into A123. And they were using their own money, or cash clients had entrusted to them for investment.
But government decisions to bankroll individual companies aren't simply dangerous bets that fall far outside the skillset of most elected officials. They are bad policy.
Those officials don't have any business using public money to pick — and perhaps make — individual winners in any industry. That goes beyond the scope of any reasonable economic development strategy and invites suspicions of corporate cronyism.
More constructive roles for government are all about creating common opportunity and letting commercial markets decide the most effective way to use it. A few examples:
■ Infrastructure. Government routinely builds roads and bridges that make business development — and commerce itself — possible in particular areas. Infrastructure can mean a lot more than pavement, but those kinds of investments create resources that can be broadly utilized.
■ Education. Spending money to give people the skills or knowledge to perform jobs — especially work in developing industries — creates important new human resources. Education and training is a no-brainer in any economic development plan.
■ Knowledge. General scientific research, often conducted at universities, has developed the knowledge building-blocks that investors and business have used to create new products in all sorts of developing industries. Much of Greater Boston's booming biotechnology industry depends on academics and their research.
■ Creating demand. Sometimes an industry needs a big customer to get off the ground. The Pentagon was an important customer for America's nascent computer industry many years ago. State officials across the country are creating new competition today by requiring utilities to buy more alternative energy.
None of these ideas are perfect and all can be abused. But the best ones create opportunity and let the right people decide how it is put to work.

Normal L-glutamine has a relatively short half-life in solution, showing a temperature-dependent loss of product with time. L-glutamine degrades through an intramolecular cyclization reaction forming as by-products, pyrrolidone carbonic acid and ammonia in equimolar concentrations. The rate of breakdown increases with increasing temperature and in the presence of phosphate or bicarbonate.
Dipeptide derivatives of L-glutamine prevent the intramolecular cyclization reaction associated with solutions of L-glutamine. These derivatives are therefore stable in solution and allow the formulation of cell culture media containing L-glutamine that may be stored at 4C for extended periods. Solutions containing these derivatives can even be autoclaved without appreciable degradation of the product (30 minutes at 121C results in approximately <5% loss of the product).
The dipeptide derivatives are metabolized within the cells to yield L-glutamine plus the second amino acid. This results in more consistent delivery of L-glutamine to cells in culture and avoids toxic buildup of ammonia in cell cultures. This feature can be especially important for ammonia sensitive cell lines.

Hujiao Bing
The Overview
Updated on September 26, 2014
At a stall in the corner of a market in Taipei's hip Fuxing district, a husband-and-wife team turns out fresh hujiao bing, savory black pepper and pork biscuits from the Chinese coastal province of Fuzhou. At least once an hour they prepare a fresh batch, rolling out dough on a worn wooden prep counter, layering on sliced and chopped pork and minced scallions, and stretching the edges of the dough rounds up and over to form plump palm-sized rounds. The biscuits bake vertically, stuck to the sides of a coal-fired, tandoori-shaped clay oven, and emerge with a crispy-chewy crust dusted with sesame seeds, hiding juicy meat mingled with nubs of sweet caramelized onion.

Achieving the Ideal Chin Contour
A sleek and sculpted chin is desired by many patients to improve their facial contour, but conditions such as excess fat under the chin, double chin or saggy skin can take away from their facial aesthetic appeal. A double chin or excess fat under the chin can make a patients face look plumper and older or heavier than they actually are. There are many popular treatments to reduce the appearance of a double chin or excess fat under the chin. Currently, the most popular treatments patients ask about are Non-Invasive Double Chin Removal with Kybella and Neck Liposuction.
Kybella vs Neck Liposuction
Kybella is FDA-approved non-surgical treatment for a double chin. Kybella is often sought out as an alternative to neck liposuction, but which procedure is better?
|Neck Liposuction
|Kybella injections contain deoxycholic acid which breaks down unwanted fat in the skin. Typically 2-4 monthly sessions are needed to achieve the best results.
|A single hidden incision is made to insert a liposuction cannula to remove excess fat and sculpt the face's natural contour
|No anesthesia
|Local anesthesia
|Those with unwanted fat under the chin.
|Treats fat under the chin and can reduce the appearance of "turkey necks"
|Up to 18-30 injections spread over a course of 2-4 monthly sessions.
|1 Injection of local anesthesia during a single 30 minute session.
|Swelling, bruising, tenderness and firmness at the injection site after treatment
|Minimal risks such as mild swelling or soreness
|2-4 days is required after each session for swelling, redness and bruising to decrease.
|Patients wear a supportive chin strap for 3-4 days after surgery and can return to work in 5 days in most cases.
|There is not enough data to determine a long lasting effect of Kybella.
|Results are permanent as long as patients maintain a healthy weight
Kybella and Neck Liposuction are both minimally invasive procedures that can help patients achieve the perfect chin contour. What will a neck liposuction get you? A restoration to an elegant, tasteful neckline, no more double chin and a sharply defined jawline. Here is a close-up of exactly what happens as a result of a neck lift:
- Excess fats located in the upper neck, chin and jawline are suctioned out
- Your neck and contours of the lower face get re-sculpted for an aesthetically pleasing look
- Loose and sagging skin gets tightens back up, positioned closer to the jawline
- Sins of aging skin are reduced
- You'll no longer have a chin and neck connected by fat, but a sharper jawline
- A beautiful profile without excess chin fat
- No worries of major risks
Your Kybella and Neck Liposuction Consultation
Though many clients assume that the right procedure depends on cost, choosing between Kybella® or Neck Liposuction depends on which treatment can benefit you most. Speaking with a board-certified cosmetic surgeon will ease your worries and help you lose that double-chin once and for all. World-renowned reconstructive and plastic surgeon Dr. Miguel Delgado will discuss what procedure is right for you. Contact us regarding a free consultation, we would love to hear from you today! Dr. Miguel Delgado performs Kybella® injections and Neck Liposuction for patients across The Bay Area. Send an email or call us at (415) 898-4161.

Palestine by Joe Sacco is not a novel I'd look for myself. Which is quite a shame actually. Fortunately I have great friends who give me interesting books like this one.
Palestine is a comics which makes this rather thick book a fun and quick read. The plot takes place in 1991 and 1992 when Sacco traveled around Palestine and met and interviewed many people there. I had been't really familiar with many of the facts about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, but I had been kind of on the Israeli side. Why? That's a good question. I think it's because of the media that present Palestinians as terrorists and Israel Jews as victims. Well, this book might be biased the other way, but at least helped me open my eyes a bit.
What it shows is people whose country has been taken over in 1948 by someone who may have lived there in the past (a long time ago), but never actually had had a regular state there. So basically you live in your village peacefully and then some soldiers come and chase you out. To make sure you won't come back, they burn your house down. Then you live in a refugee camp for almost 60 years and your kids and grandkids have never seen anything else apart from it. You can't leave your house at night because of the curfew.
And if you haven't been in prison, you certainly know someone close to you who has. You know many people that have been shot or hurt by the Israeli army. Eeach small protest is punished big time. Did your kid throw a stone on a soldier? Might have been your kid, actually. We'll saw off branches from the olive trees your income depends on (and that take at least 5 years to grow up again). Often people are tortured to confess even if they are innocent.
It reminds me what I heard about communism a lot. Now imagine you're 15, you live in a refugee camp, and all the above is part of your everyday life. What would you do?
Just something to think about when you read the news..

To the Editor: In its recent position paper ( 1 ) on diagnosing gallbladder disease, the Health and Policy Committee of the American College of Physicians recommended use of ultrasonographic examination of the gallbladder as the preferred initial test for both acute and chronic cholecystitis and use of HIDA cholescintigraphy only if the diagnosis is uncertain after ultrasonography. This recommendation is in conflict with the data reported by Marton and Doubilet (2), who found that cholescintigraphy has a sensitivity of 95% to 97% and a specificity of 90% to 97% for acute cholecystitis.
