I just finished this dress and it is just adorable. My granddaughter is going to love it and I can't believe
how easy it was. I put all three ruffles on it and thought it would be very hard getting them all on the skirt but it was very easy. I will use this pattern again and again.
LOVE this dress! It's one of my favorites!

Love this pattern! The instructions were easy to follow and very detailed. The dress turned out so well I went and bought more fabric to make another one.
This is a precious pattern! Sew cute!
This is a wonderfully detailed pattern and the dress turned out to be amazing!
I used this pattern to make my daughter her birthday dress (10y). The dress turned out beautiful, the pattern was easy to follow and the pictures in the instructions were a big help!
LOVE this dress!! the fit was perfect, directions are easy to follow and it sews up beautifully. Great pattern!
Very cute dress, but some of the instructions were not very clear.
Loved this pattern! I recieved so many compliments! The elastic in the top had to be adjusted some. It was a little tight. Just made the elastic longer. Easy instructions!
This dress is stunning. The instructions were easy to follow. I even made and used my own bias tape for the first time. I will be sure to make more of these. It does take a lot of fabric and make sure to buy extra to match up patterns
Super instructions! This dress is insanely cute and there are so many versions you can adapt the pattern to make. Cap sleeves, shorter length, belted. LOVE IT!
Great Pattern! Thank you! The dress is beautiful!
It is a beautiful dress when complete!
I loved this pattern. It was very quick to cut out and make. I make lots of clothes so this dress only took 3 hours from start to finish.
The instructions were clear and precise. The dress came together beautifully. The only change I made was to shorten the dress by 5 inches for my six-year-old.
We haven received tons of compliments whenever my daughter is wearing this dress.
Beautiful dress. I would love a mommy size to match. I only put on two layers of ruffles and I added trim to them. My daughter loves how it turned out.
LOVE This dress!!!!
Beautiful dress,great instructions,but it is time consuming.
Stunning dress. Sews up beautiful. Fantastic instructions

Lots of my Hollywood showbiz friends have adopted children and the majority of them are beautiful little girls from China who look so much like me I could have fathered them all if such were possible. It makes me glad that these kids have found loving homes and really pretty swank ones to boot. I wish my friends would adopt me! I would fit right in! I could babysit while you all go to the Oscars and we would eat every bit of chocolate in the house and stay up way past bedtime and paint our toenails and jump on the bed until we collapse from our sugar highs and fall asleep without brushing our teeth.
Of course I love my parents, but when I was a kid I would fantasize about being adopted by white people. I would picture them looking almost exactly like my parents, but with blonde wigs and bright blue contact lenses. Also they would act pretty much the same but they wouldn't eat fish eyes and they'd let me watch tv for longer and not be tense whenever there was kissing or yelling on sitcoms.
My father seemed to protest the most about yelling on sitcoms. He thought it was uncivilized and disgusting and it would actually upset him so much he would get up from the couch and turn off the tv. The yelling was not ok with him. The yelling was too much. He'd say, "People don't act like that in real life. They don't. And they shouldn't!" and he'd just turn off the tv. When we finally got a remote control, he would have his finger on the POWER button in case of yelling. My imaginary adopted white father would have enjoyed the yelling and laughed and looked at me to see if I was laughing too so we could share the laughter together in a sweet kind of comedy communion.
My imaginary parents were not replacements for my actual parents. I just pretended that my real parents never existed. I couldn't have ever thought of something happening to my folks that would lead to my eventual adoption. I didn't want them out of my life. I just wanted them to be white. I think it was that I was scared to want to be white myself, even though I desperately wanted to be then, and still do now to some extent. imagine the privileges! It would be so relaxing to be white! I could work more frequently for better pay and everyone would listen closely to what I had to say and take it to heart instead of rolling their eyes and enduring my minority rants for fear of being called a racist and my hair would curl easily or maybe even be NATURALLY CURLY. Ah yes – the grass is always curlier. But back then, I was deeply ashamed of the thought of wanting to be white, strangely disturbed by my burgeoning perception of racial inequity and being at the business end of it, so I cloaked it in this weird wish for my family to be, possibly to explain my own Americanized existence.
The fact that no one like me had happened before, that I had been the first of my family born in America and therefore the first generation that was asian AND American was too lonely of an identity to occupy. Now it seems better, and I feel more of a sense of community, as I have lots of people around me who have lived this life, this experience of being first, but as a kid, it was a burden. It was a vague embarrassment and an existential crisis. When you don't have an example of what to be or who to be or how to be from those who came before you, you feel lost. With no historical context, you feel like you have no history and no context. When you have to invent yourself, it feels fucked up, like you are doing it wrong. Like you and your life are all wrong and a grand mistake.
Because I had no accent and no real explanation for my ever and all American personality yet mysteriously foreign face, the only solution to my ethnic dilemma was to have been adopted. Well that explains it! Of course I would take on the speech and cadence and confidence of an American because that was what was taught to me at home. I had the right to be an American because my parents were. This all sounds bizarre I am sure – but think about it – I was born in the 1960s! Race had clearly defined meanings and connotations. If you looked like this, you sounded like this. If you sounded like that, you looked like that. People rarely deviated from their positions, and when you did, it caused a lot of problems. You were not to be trusted, if you could not be explained.
My father had gone to a huge amount of trouble to rid himself of his Korean accent, so much that on the phone to other parents, they would assume that he was white. He was really convincing. Sometimes when I talk to him on the phone now, even I think he is white! He even pronounces the "H" in "White". "H-white". That is really white!
I once slept over at a white girl's house and her mom called to make sure it was ok, and after a brief but overly enthusiastic conversation with my father she hung up the phone and looked at me with an impressive and oddly relieved smile and said "I didn't know you were adopted!" and I didn't say anything. She seemed much friendlier and warmer after this, and I felt suddenly decoded. I had gone from a question mark to an exclamation mark and I didn't want to go back so I just let her think I was adopted for the entire length of my friendship with that girl, which didn't last that long anyway.
I wonder if these young Chinese girls look at their white parents, these fantastically generous loving couples I know who went all the way to China on these expensive and difficult and terribly unglamorous journeys to get them and bring them home to raise them as their own, and wish they were Asian. Do they see me and wish somehow I was their mother? Do they feel the same weirdness I did about my own racial identity when I was growing up? My hope is that they don't think anything about it, and don't look at their parents as being a different race. I hope they see them as I see them – just terrific examples of pure love and kindness – the way I look at my parents these days, as we watch tv on my couch. My dad doesn't mind yelling as much on tv now. He's grown to like it. Especially when it is coming from me.

When Matt Cassel's concussion knocked him out of the Kansas City Chiefs' starting lineup, Brady Quinn was told Cassel would get his job back when healthy.
Gresham's immense upside and much more. More ...
Cassel returned to practice during the Chiefs' bye, and things looked headed back to square one. That's why it was so surprising when coach Romeo Crennel announced this week that Quinn would be the starting quarterback indefinitely. It even caught Quinn off guard.
"It was pretty surprising, to be honest with you," Quinn told Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports. "We were competing over the bye week, but Matt got most of the reps. So I was surprised, but excited about it, for my career."
It's comforting to see Quinn and Silver talking again. It wasn't so long ago that Quinn was questioning the accuracy of Silver's portrayal of himself in a piece for GQ. It's not exactly Nas and Jay-Z taking the stage together, but it's good that Quinn has learned from his time swirling in the Tim Tebow vortex.
"There were just a lot of things going on that were outside of my control," Quinn said of his difficult time in Denver. "Sometimes in life we get caught up in the outside stuff and don't focus on the things that matter. Sometimes you get frustrated. If there's one thing I learned, it's that each week I needed to prepare the best way I knew how to prepare myself."
That preparation has led to another chance to lead an NFL team as Quinn gets the start Sunday against the Oakland Raiders. Quinn is smart enough to know he might not get another chance like it again.Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggrosenthal.

Hi everyone, I am announcing an initial release of the Ovizart,
Network Analyzer Project. Ovizart (OV - Open VİZual Analsis foR network Traffic ) is a web based application that will let users upload captured traffic in a PCAP format, analyze the traffic, and present the traffic in an intuitive manner.

While the quantity of submissions for FC10 was lower than usual - we had expected this because of the amount of work required to submit plus being over the Christmas break - the quality of the solutions was really inspiring.
Of course the hardest part was deciding the winners, and as expected the traditional scoring method was not ideal for this type of challenge because the challenge was about creating and developing ideas, rather than just answering a number of dry questions. Quite a few people people used the challenge not so much to win a prize, but to have fun, develop an idea they've had, practice on some real datasets, learn, and teach. This was exactly the spirit we'd hoped for, so thanks to everyone for putting in a big effort.
The Winners and their solutions:
Fabian Fischer - solution
Chris Horsley - solution
Fraser Scott - solution
Dan Gleebits - solution
Johnathan Tracz - solution
The standout theme in the submissions for me was the use of interactive and flexible tools to analyse the data. As we move further into the big data world, its going to be imperative to get inside the data interactively to understand it. Some of the solutions focused on developing brand new applications/frameworks to interactively data sets - Check out the submissions from Fabian and Chris as really good examples of this. While Fraser put forward the idea of rendering images in 3D - which is not that far-out an idea actually, why not?!.
We hope that this challenge was enjoyable for those who participated, and for those downloading the submissions for inspiration. These challenges have a long legacy, we see people downloading, attempting and referencing these challenges and the solutions for education purposes years afterwards, so they are an important program at the Honeynet Project.
It would be great to see solutions to future forensic challenges use visualization, not only to analyse and detect trends, but also to describe the problem space to the layperson. With that said - the next Forensic challenge, FC11 should be released shortly - so stay tuned.
And lastly, if anyone wants to develop their ideas further, a good way (i.e. get paid if you are accepted!) is to get involved in our upcoming Google Summer of Code program GSOC12
I would like to inform you all about our recent activities that we are attempting to achieve.
First of all, we have totally rebuilt our web site. This new ones aim to be a central repository of all the (external/internal) news concerning botnets (mainly) and malwares (secondary).
We will use the blog for posting about our project developments, and for commenting/reporting interesting news concerning the field that we are currently treating, so you can now add a new entry to your feeds reader :) Read more »

Mood Setters
Mood Setters for the Body at Walgreens
Keeping your sex life new and exciting is important for the health of your relationship. When couples fall into set routines during foreplay and intercourse, experiences can become less passionate, leading to feelings of dissatisfaction that can put a strain on both partners. While it can be easy to fall into a routine during intimate moments, breaking out of a rut can also be easy with the help of various pleasure products.
What are Pheromones?
Scent has an amazing impact upon the entire body. For centuries, people have used fragrances as aphrodisiacs, substances that heighten feelings of arousal. Some scientists believe that certain chemicals can help to stimulate feelings of sexual desire through scent even if their odors cannot be picked out by the human senses. These chemicals are known as pheromones. Though there is still some debate on the effectiveness of pheromones for promoting arousal, some scientists believe that these natural chemicals produced by the human body can be sensed by something in the nose called the vomeronasal organ or VNO. The pheromones detected by the VNO may promote the release of sexual hormones, which can make a person more attractive to the opposite sex. More science is needed in order to understand the effects of pheromones on humans.
Pheromones for Sexual Enhancement
While more research on pheromones is needed, many people report positive experiences using mood setters that contain pheromones in the bedroom. These products typically combine pheromones with scents traditionally used as aphrodisiacs to help put people in the mood for lovemaking. Typically, the products are applied directly to the skin, often in areas that are likely to be kissed during foreplay.
Flavored Body Products for New Experiences
Mood setting products can be used to stimulate other senses beyond the sense of smell. Many couples enjoy adding pleasing taste sensations to foreplay and intercourse. You can find edible body paints that are playfully applied to a partner and then licked or kissed away by the other partner. There are also discreet spray and liquid products that can be applied to a part of the body and left in place for the other partner to discover during foreplay. Flavored products may make oral intercourse more pleasant for the giving partner. Some of these products contain natural mint oils to enhance circulation to the receiving partner's genitals in order to heighten arousal.
Personal Hygiene Solutions
Some mood setters for the bedroom are actually designed to eliminate problems that can put a damper on intimate moments. Specifically, these products help to eliminate unpleasant odors in the private areas of men and women. Called personal deodorants, the products may be sprayed or rolled onto the skin. Like all deodorants, these products contain ingredients that help to discourage the growth of odor-causing bacteria. In addition, they leave behind pleasing scents that can mask unpleasant odors. While body odors in the genital area are natural and usually no cause for concern, be sure to see a doctor about any new body odors that are particularly foul or that are accompanied by other symptoms like discharge or itching. These could be signs of an infection.

That being said, I kind of hope DoFlamingo and Fujitora both fall this arc. We're past the half-way mark, so we need some solid advancement in the plot. DoFlamingo falling is good, but Fujitora falling as well would be even better.

Still harping on about THAT now, eh? Look, I don't know what personal vendetta you have against old timers, but don't take out your anger on these elderly enforcers of justice, okay? They're only doing their job! And is it really okay to pick on the blind guy, at that? Now, now, James, I thought you were better than that.....
On a more serious note, I still see no reason for any admirals to fall at this point, much less one that was newly introduced to this arc. They represent the best of the best of the marines, so I really can't help but feel that it would be more appropriate for any of them to fall at a much later point in Luffy and co.'s journey. Like maybe once the crew gets closer to Raftel or something. Otherwise, it wouldn't look very good for Akainu's regime if an admiral were toppled like a day or two upon the Straw-Hats' arrival in the New World.

Actually thinking about it, i kinda think that fujitora might end up being Zoro's opponent much later on in the story. The guy does wield a sword so he may be an accomplished swordsman and it seems fitting that Zoro should be able to take down someone as powerful as an admiral before he goes on to take on Mihawk. Much later on in the storyline, we could have the strawhats go into a huge battle against the marines a battle where Luffy will have to take on Akainu; and while Luffy is fighting the fleet admiral, Zoro will find himself taking on Fujitora
Not to mention i might say it would be a little much for both Doflamingo AND an admiral to be taken down in the same arc. I kinda think that if any admiral might fall to show Luffy's advancement, it might be kizaru... much like how after the time skip the strawhats fought the same pacifistas that they struggled against before the time skip, Luffy may have to fight against Kizaru, the guy who forced the entire crew into retreat, to show how much he has grown... Its basically a something of a destined rematch.

Eh, really Kizaru didn't do much to Luffy pre-skip. If anything, I'd still say Zoro should take a crack at him since he was closest to being killed by that particular admiral. Otherwise, Luffy's pretty much got dibs on Akainu for more obvious reasons.
And besides, Kizaru seems to have a sort of pattern where he fights the first mates of powerful crews, anyway (Rayleigh, Marco).
The fact that Fujitora had little build-up so far is exactly the reason why I don't see him falling now. Sudden introduction or not, the man is still an admiral, and the fact that he is one means he has too much story weight to be toppled so soon, IMO. At least Dofla, as already mentioned, already had hundreds of chapters to establish himself as the menacing entity that he is. So while I agree that he is ripe for the picking, I can't say the same for the blind old man. He needs some time to be active and marinate with the story's flow before it's finally time for him to go down (and even then, it's not guaranteed that the Straw-Hats will have a final battle against him since he seems to be more of a neutral party like Aokiji). IMO, it would be plain sloppy writing on Oda's part to introduce a new admiral just for him to get fodderized in his debut arc......

^Crocodile, Moria, Enel, the CP9 et al would like to disagree (really almost all the villians). They all showed up, had little set-up (Crocodile was the only one with any real set-up), did their thing, then left via stage left. Position does not really matter unless the characters have some purpose later on (even then, the majority were still defeated).
Do I really think Tora will fall? No. But, it would be interesting and definitely not as unexpected as you make it out to be.

I doubt Doflamingo will be turned into a "nice" guy in this arc...
from all the past material he has been portrayed to be and do nothing but evil acts... (threatening govt official, attacking innocent people, turning friends against each other, etc...)
imo, he will fall in this arc, the SH need a big event like this to kick off there emergence in the new world

Well, more than a single chapter, obviously!
Anyway, though the spoilers have NOT come out yet, I went ahead and made the new thread a bit earlier just in case AP crashes again and Aohige or someone else needs a place to post the summary when it DOES come out.

^This is more of a hunch than anything, but I think what's ultimately going to cement Dofla's status as Luffy's main foe this arc will be their conflicting ideologies. I had briefly brought this up in my earlier post about Sabo, but this applies more than ever here: Think of the Bellamy conflict in Jaya. Who was the one who planted those ideas of spitting on people's dreams in those people's heads in the first place? If it was Dofla, then that means he's the very root of the conflict in question.
In fact, this is very likely the reason why Oda reintroduced us to Bellamy in this arc in the first place: We can learn through him about what makes Dofla such an influential person in the first place. Why does Bellamy idolize this man to the point that he even went to the trouble of bringing him a gift from a sky island, apparently at the cost of his own crew? How does a guy who dabbles in underground slave trade and weapons manufacturing earn so much respect from so many people, even after abdicating his status as both a warlord AND king? If he was able to rise as high as he did by ridiculing and stomping on the dreams of others, well..... could you really see Luffy take that sitting down?

In recent Shitsburgh news, the Chief Executive of Allegheny County PA (Pittsburgh), Dan Onorato, has learned about the affiliation of Nick-A-What!? (aka Nick Onorato) with the Baltimore Ravens and B-More Birds' Nest.
An Uncanny Resemblance
N-A-W, the production artist/co-creator of B-More Birds' Nest, was discovered by Dan Onorato yesterday as Dan was preparing for the city of Pittsburgh's "Roast the Raven Rally". Dan, or "Dr. Lightning-Bolt-Fists," as family members call him, was using his incredible internet surfing skills, and stumbled across the B-More Birds' Nest website while attempting to find a photograph of "Big Ben" Ben "Ben" Roethlisberger's father's lover.
In rage and disgust, his genius led him to search long and … well… not very far, down several blog articles to the posting of D.Baby and N-A-W in the Baltimore Sun. Dr. Lightning-Bolt-Fists, long time Squealers fan, then sent an email to NestMinder effectively banning N-A-W from ever entering his city again, stating, "…no possible long lost relative of mine would ever root for the Ravens!"
Little did he know, N-A-W was there in August too where he witnessed the Shitsburgh Butt-Pirates first hand! But, obviously, nobody cares about them.
N-A-W's response? "He should take one of those terrible towels and… well… no… I won't stoop to his level, he's probably family. But I do hope a bird shits in his coffee."

THE EO EDUCATIONAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT An Expanded Program for'81 'ith the nation's businessmen and professionals literally inundated by invitations to attend seminars on a spectrum of subjects almost as broad as the imagination of man, why would one of the large public accounting firms decide the time was right to launch its own external education program? "We established the Educational Services Department and began holding seminars last summer for several reasons," Bill Kuntz, Executive Office partner in charge of the department, said. "First, we identified a very real need on the part of industry for more training for internal auditors. Second, we recognized that we not only had a highly sophisticated and unique audit approach, but that it would be to the long-range benefit of our clients, others and ourselves to make this knowledge more widely available. To that end, our primary focus is to assist our personnel in serving our clients better by sharing with them the techniques developed in our professional practice." The genesis of the Educational Services Department can be traced to the summer of 1978, when DH&S held its first AuditSCOPE seminar for forty-one auditing educators in Vail, Colorado. AuditSCO PE, an acronym for Audit System of Coordinated Objectives, Procedures and Evaluations, is a term used to describe our highly coordinated approach to auditing that had been evolving for more than fifty years. Although some elements of AuditSCOPE had been made known outside the firm earlier, the 1978 meeting in Vail marked the first time our overall approach was outlined to an outside audience. "The firm had a great response from the educators who attended the seminar," 12 Bill said, "and I believe it helped focus our thinking on the question of making larger segments of our expertise more generally accessible." There were, or course, questions to be answered before decisions would be made. In February 1979 EO partners Bill Stewart and Bob Pivik convened a task force to study the feasibility and advisability of setting up a program of education for a fee. Bill Kuntz, then partner in charge of the Continuing Education Department at Executive Office, was named chairman of a group that included partners Bob Atwood, Bill Gerecke, Jule Phoenix, Ken Studdard and Charlie Walworth. The task force concluded that there was a real need on the part of business and industry for access to more and better training, especially in the field of internal auditing. The findings of the task force formed the basis for the present structure and operational philosophy of the Educational Services Department. "We focused on internal auditing because it's an area of growing importance," Bill said. "We have the expertise, the methodology and the techniques that we developed, tested and refined — that we proved were effective and efficient. Simply put, we have the most useful system of its kind available to the internal auditor." The firm views the seminar program as an extension of the services offered to clients. "The seminars are open to anyone, not just clients," Bill said. "Much of the rationale for the program was the emerging need for training of internal auditors because of their increasing responsibilities." The Educational Services Department draws on firmwide technical resources and on practice-office personnel to help with course development and instructing. Devoting full time to the effort are Bill Kuntz and Jo Dutcher, educational services coordinator. In addition to heading ESD, Bill remains involved in the activities of the Continuing Education Department as Dave Powell assumes his new role as partner in charge of the department.

It's Monday! Time for the final post on March's book club selection- How Postmodernism Serves (My) Faith by Crystal Downing.
In Chapter 7, Downing examines a variety of approaches to relativism, arguing that what she calls "building relativism" is favorable to Christianity. This kind of relativism allows for absolute truth, while maintaining many of the epistemological ideas associated with postmodernism. In in, "truth meets human beings on their own ground…Truth, then is relative to each; all come to the light differently. Nevertheless, it is the same Truth they come to: Jesus is the way, the truth and the light." Through Jesus, truth is found in relationship, not in a set of beliefs or ideas to which one ascribes.
I like that. The beauty of relationship with God is that each individual experiences it quite differently.
However, what I enjoyed most about the last few pages of Downing's book is what she says about the Bible. She writes that "while many modernists saw scriptural discrepancies as evidence that the Bible was not 'true,' postmodernists would attribute discrepancies to the pluralistic situatedness of interpretation," making the Bible a more true-to-life and authentic account of human interaction with the divine. Therefore, "the incredible diversity and apparent contradictions within Scripture are its strength. Its pluralistic pronouncements and parables can speak to the pluralistic experiences of Christians…"
I don't know about you, but this calls to mind the many theological volumes that have been written in recent years seeking to address the discrepancies in Scripture. I've known theologians who could explain away everything from the historically impossible numbers associated with Hebrew battles to the differing accounts of the Sermon on the Mount to the alternating emphases on works and faith in the apostolic letters. These explanations always used to stress me out because I secretly felt like they sounded more like rationalizations than anything. They sounded a bit desperate, if you know what I mean.
But Downing's approach, which I've encountered in several places recently, is refreshing. Perhaps one of the greatest themes of Scripture is that there is no one theme. Perhaps in allowing such diversity in the writing and compiling of Scripture, God sought to protect us from making an idol out of any one interpretation of it. Perhaps rather than fearing apparent contradictions, we should celebrate them, knowing that they serve as affirmation that God speaks to all kinds of people in all kinds of ways.

A few weeks ago came the startling news that Apple has now been reduced to a niche player in the global smartphone market, at least from a "platform" perspective.
Android is now running away with the race with ~75% global market share.
Apple's iPhone, meanwhile, has only ~15% share.
If the smartphone market were merely a "gadget" market, this wouldn't matter. Apple still has tremendous scale, and as its devoted fans often observe, it still arguably makes the best smartphones in the world. As a result, Apple is still the dominant player in the "premium" segment of the market, winning the hearts, minds, and wallets of rich consumers who have $600 to spend on a phone (or, more relevantly, carriers who will subsidize their phones).
But the smartphone market isn't just a gadget market. It's also a platform market. (Third-party companies build products and services that are built on smartphones.) And platform markets tend to standardize around the platform with the most market share, because it's easier and cheaper to build products and services for only one platform. Thus, in smartphones, platform market share matters.
Also, the "premium" segment of the smartphone market, the one Apple dominates, is already maturing rapidly.
More than 1 billion people worldwide now have smartphones.
These "golden 1 billion," not coincidentally, are the people who have most of the world's money. The next 6 billion smartphone buyers, meanwhile, don't have much money. So, for them, the price of their smartphone is going to be extremely important.
And, as yet, Apple doesn't offer low-priced smartphones that these folks can afford.
Kai-Fu Lee, a former Googler who now runs startup incubator Innovation Works in China, described the key dynamics of China's exploding smartphone market in a recent LinkedIn post.
The Chinese smartphone market is growing spectacularly quickly: From an installed base of about 50 million phones last year to a staggering 500 million by the end of next year.
Importantly, this explosive growth was triggered in part by the launch of affordable $100-$200 Android smartphones.
As in other areas of the world, Apple is a premium brand in China. But most Chinese can't afford to shell out $500 for a phone. And the Chinese wireless carrier business is not built around subsidies, the way the U.S. and European carrier businesses are.
So even though Apple is enjoying huge growth in China, it's missing out on the truly explosive growth segment of the market: Mainstream Chinese consumers.
Originally, China's market developed more slowly because of two reasons. First, usable 3G networks took much longer to develop than other countries. Second, there are few subsidies in China, so users had to pay one or two month's salary for an iPhone or Android. These inhibited the growth.
But both issues have changed. Broadband wireless is now over 58%, and smart phone prices have dropped to about $100 for an acceptable Android phone, and about $200 for a full-featured Android phone. Smart phones are now spreading like wildfire.
About a year ago, there were less than 50M users, basically affluent or tech savvy users who were willing to pay $500 for a phone and $30 a month for 3G. But now, students, young white collar, and even blue collar workers are swarming into the smart phone market!
The same thing is happening in India, another vast and burgeoning smartphone market. In India, though, Apple isn't even a strong "premium" brand, because it doesn't have the distribution system it has in China. Samsung and other Android vendors are cleaning up in India, while Apple tries to figure out how to sell $500 phones to people who don't make that much money in a month.
Apple's dominance of the "premium" segment of the smartphone market has allowed it to become the most profitable company in the world.
But the "premium" segment of the market is maturing, and the next phase of explosive market growth is going to come from lower-priced phones.
As Apple surrenders more and more market share to Android, meanwhile, it risks becoming an "also-ran" development platform. If that happens, the value of Apple's "ecosystem" will drop, and even the company's position in the premium segment might become threatened.
Apple isn't helpless here, but it also can't have everything.
As I described in a longer analysis of the smartphone market, Apple will soon have to choose between:
1) its extraordinarily high profit margin, or
2) its global market share
If Apple wants to defend, much less grow, its market share relative to Android, it's going to have to offer low-priced phones.
If it offers low-priced phones, however, its profit margin will almost certainly drop.
Defending market share is much more important to the company's long-term value than maintaining a particular profit margin, so this shouldn't be a tough decision for Apple. But it may cause some angst among the company's investors.

Swimming Pool Chlorine Buyer's Guide
The best chlorine to buy may be the most convenient source for you, from a dealer with a good price and good service.
3" Tablets or Chlorine Sticks
1" ChlorineTablets
1" Bromine Tablets
Bromine tablets are commonly used to chlorinate hot tubs and spas because it is more stable at high temperatures, and remains potent over a wider range of pH levels. Bromine has many distinct advantages over chlorine such as being less irritating on the eyes and skin, lasting longer, and having a less aggressive odor. While you can use bromine to treat your swimming pool it is much more expensive than using chlorine tablets.
The recommended usage of bromine tablets is 31 tablets per 10,000 gallons of water every five to seven days.
Bromine tablets require a bromine feeder to be dispersed throughout the spa or pool water.
One other distinction between it's cousin Chlorine, is that bromine cannot be stabilized, or protected from the sun. Chlorine tablets are stabilized, that is, a small amount of cyanuric acid is added to each tablet.
Granular Chlorine
Liquid Chlorine
Liquid chlorine, aka bleach, is another type of chlorine that you could use in your swimming pool. Swimming pool bleach is a stronger concentration of Clorox bleach, and without any perfumes or ketchup stain fighting additives.
In sunbelt states, it was once popular to chlorinate your inground pool by pouring in some liquid chlorine. Pool guys still today use it on their pool routes. Sodium Hypochlorite, is a fine sanitizer. Inexpensive, clean burning and fast acting. It does however have a few drawbacks.
Liquid can be hard to meter out properly, and it becomes easy to under or over dose the pool. If it's not added daily, you will get peaks and valleys of sanitation - from very high levels of chlorine, to very low levels. Tablets provide a more stable and continuous level of chlorine. Third, the pH level in liquid chlorine is very high, and requires frequent adjustment of your pool pH level.
Liquid chlorine remains the popular choice for large pools however. Commercial pools usually have 50 gallon vats of delivered liquid chlorine. A small metering pump will inject a slow and continuous feed of the light green liquid into the pool return line.
We dont sell liquid chlorine, because it's not possible to ship it. You can usually obtain small amounts at Home Stores, Pool Stores or Water Treatment suppliers.
Salt Chlorine
Surprising last minute entry into our Chlorine Buyer's Guide - but after all, it is a form of chlorine. If you install a salt generator, also called a salt chlorinator, you can make your own chlorine, and never need to buy chlorine again!
Salt Systems work to convert salt in the water into liquid chlorine. All you have to do is add salt to the pool, about 250 lbs per 10,000 gallons. Then, hook up the salt system by plumbing it into the return line, and plugging in the power cord. Electrolysis begins immediately and you can make all the chlorine you need - for free. You can even shock the pool with a salt chlorinator.

NEWS-Pig protest: Granny Warriors plan Richmond rally
The September 12 slaughter of privately owned wild boars in Buckingham County has inspired a protest in Richmond.
The Granny Warriors, who are concerned about the rights of animal owners, will pull into town in a slogan-bedecked RV to protest the USDA and support Danny and Cindi Henshaw, whose Willis River hunting preserve was the target of an early morning raid and pig slaughter.
The Henshaws' story in last week's Hook ("Boar War: Questions raised in Buckingham slaughter") has unleashed a torrent of support from groups such as the Granny Warriors (Motto: "Fighting injustice and exposing animal rights activists and the bills they help write to the public for what they are!") and NoNAIS.org (Motto: "Protect traditional rights to farm"), an organization against the National Animal Identification System, which the U.S. Department of Agriculture says is designed to prevent the spread of disease.
"I was surprised and pleased that people from all over have offered that much support," says Danny Henshaw, who was awakened before dawn and arrested on a misdemeanor charge of operating an illegal hunting enclosure, a facility he says he's operated for 16 years and was no secret from authorities.
The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services says some of Henshaw's wild boars tested positive for pseudorabies, a highly contagious disease among animals but which is not transmissible to humans. When the disease is discovered, the solution is "depopulation"– destroying the herd to maintain the state's pseudorabies-free status.
The Henshaws say their animals exhibited no signs of the disease, which include sterility, and they were not allowed to take their own blood samples from the 79 slaughtered boars before the USDA hauled them off.
Cries of "heavy-handed" tactics have arisen following the 11 days government officials holed up on the Henshaws' property and posted 24-hour guard around their approximately 100-acre hunting preserve. Cindi Henshaw's pet pigs, Cupid and Valentine, who were kept in a separate pen on a separately deeded lot, were also shot during the depopulation.
Not everyone is running to the Henshaws' defense. One local pig farmer expresses concern about the spread of pseudorabies to other herds.
"I find it unbelievable [Henshaw] had never heard of pseudorabies," says the farmer, who requested anonymity, citing fear of anti-NAISers. "It's a huge issue among feral hogs. It's upsetting to me there was someone in this area doing something so irresponsible."
"We knew the name," responds Henshaw. "I thought it was a venereal disease for pigs. If I'd had some sort of problem, I'd be more aware. We've never had sickly or dying pigs." Pseudorabies is caused by a herpes virus, and is not to be confused with rabies.
On the Hook website, comments about the story rival the number received for "Claws and Effect: Cat killing shocks Bentivar."
The Granny Warriors, who last took on People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in a spring protest in Norfolk, are urging supporters to show up October 24 across the street from the USDA building in Richmond.
Granny Warrior co-founder Linda Hunnicutt is driving her RV from Asheville, North Carolina, for the protest. "It's the right thing to do," she declares. "The government shouldn't have done that. It was heavy handed. There are other ways to do that."
Doreen Hannes is too young to be a Granny Warrior, but she's coming from southern Missouri for the rally. "A lot of attention needs to be drawn to the fact that the USDA and state agencies are out of control," she says. "They did not follow protocol, and they destroyed people's personal property."
Both Hunnicutt and Hannes say the National Animal Identification System spells the end of the small farmer.
Danny Henshaw is aware that what happened to him is helping fuel the anti-NAISers' distrust of the USDA.
"They're using our story to help their position," he says. "I don't have a problem with that if it can help other people."
The chariot of the Granny Warriors will be headquarters for an October 24 protest in Richmond.
Willis River had offered wild boar hunting for 16 years.

We often believe we have �evolved� into smarter, better people. Is this really the case?
We often believe we have �evolved� into smarter, better people.
Is this really the case?
I have no doubt that we, today�s general population, would test better and can probably theorize much better than our ancestors of, say the 18th century, but are we actually smarter?
Today, we have a wealth of knowledge at our disposal. We have nearly endless ways of absorbing this knowledge. From the Internet to libraries to television, there really is just about no reason for someone to say that they �can�t learn� how to do something.
However, one could also make the argument that �everyday knowledge� has dropped over the last few centuries. We can call it common sense if that makes you feel better but, whatever we call it, I believe it has declined. I have read letters from Civil War soldiers and can safely say that while we may have more knowledge, we may not necessarily be smarter.
Think about it for a second; much of the population can no longer do math. They actually have difficulty with basic adding and subtracting without the use of a calculator. Two hundred years ago, basic arithmetic was an everyday necessity needed in everyday life to simply survive. Sure a few people can do math � primarily, the guys that put together the calculator/computer your kids are currently using � but we have all witnessed the struggles of a cashier when an inordinate change sequence is given or a wrong amount has been punched into the register.
I, not too long ago, actually witnessed a cashier go so far as void the transaction and begin again to avoid the math. All I could think was how pathetic it was.
Writing is another area that has dropped in quality. We can no longer write in prose. Maybe the elite writers of our generation can compete, but the everyday average Joe? I�m not so sure.
Reading something written today by an average writer is not relaxing at best and downright difficult at worst. The flowing prose with which the average soldier displayed in many of the Civil War letters as well some of the World War I letters I have read is a relaxing, easy read compared to today�s choppy, truncated written word.
The everyday person can no longer build a shelter. Sure, we can build and build magnificent structures like Jerry Jones� Temple to the Football Gods in Dallas, but that�s not the everyday person � it�s a select few architects and contractors. In times past, just about everyone could build the most simplistic shelter. That is not the case today.
I would go so far as to say that as a group people we were �smarter� in many ways 200 years ago than we are today. Back then, nearly everyone could use a compass (most kids wouldn�t even recognize a compass today), nearly everyone could do everyday math, write an eloquent letter, feed themselves through hunting or farming and build a shelter on their own.
Do you honestly think your 20-year-old, video-game-playing son, neighbor or nephew could do any of those things if we removed the button he pushes to do those actions? Most of them can not even do dishes without the button to start the dishwasher. Pushing a button to make something do something is not the same thing as ACTUALLY doing it.
Ironically, IQ scores have risen significantly throughout the last century. Our vocabularies have expanded (for better or worse) and we have a much better concept of the world around us. Some of this is due to the much improved methods and techniques of learning whether its computers, three-dimensional maps or whatever.
We, no doubt, think much larger than our ancestors � and on a much grander scale.
What can we do? How do we curb this disturbing trend?
Sadly, I do not know. It would seem to me that we need to start educating not only our children better but ourselves as well. Hopefully, we never reach a time when we all need to know all of this type of stuff but who knows really?
However, I would love to know how to build a really cool fort.

Stop the Insanity!!
I discovered something today that was so mind-blowing that I just had to share. And let me preface it by saying I'm not calling this entry a Wreck; it's just crazy.
So here's the deal: most of you know how much I love Cute Overload, right? No? Well, I do. Ok, so the other day I was cruisin' the cute, and I came across this photo:
Frickin' adorable, I know, but that's not the point. The point is, it was posted on CO just a few days ago, but over two weeks ago Melinda L. sent me this cake, made by Cakes With a Difference:
What the hey? Is there some crazy cat cake creating time warp going on? (Try saying that 3 times fast...) These are so similar, now I'm dying to know if this cake was actually made for the snuggle-cats' owner. Anyone know?

At this point, most Internet users are used to being accosted by online advertising. Whether generic banner ads, skyscrapers, text-based touts from the likes of Google and Amazon, sponsorships, fly-outs, fly-overs, or even the dreaded pop-up windows, ads have been part of the browsing experience almost as long as the Web browser itself. However, while online advertising continues to be big business, mobile advertising is growing at a record pace. Hundreds of millions of consumers are spending their quality time on smartphones and tablets – and, by and large, those devices are happily sharing many details of user's lives (including contacts, location, and online activities) with advertisers, who collate it all then attempt to deliver mobile ads based on what they can discern about those users' tastes and habits.
Some of the most popular add-ons for desktop Web browsers are ad blockers: basically, software that identifies different types of online advertising and prevents them from loading based on users' preferences. Now, Adblock Plus, one of the most popular ad-blockers for the desktop, has made the jump to Android. It's available on Google Play and directly from the developer.
Like its desktop counterpart, Adblock Plus for Android can block advertising appearing in most mobile browsers – like Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and the default browser built into older versions of Android. However, it can also block ads appearing in many apps – and given how many apps try to support themselves via mobile advertising, ad blocking could mean developers need to re-think their apps – or at least rethink their advertising.
Do we need mobile ad blocking? Does ad blocking improve the experience of using our mobile devices? Or does it have consequences that may make those devices less useful in the future?
How Adblock Plus for Android works
Adblock Plus got started way back in 2002 as a browser extension called "AdBlock," but (despite popularity) it was largely abandoned for years until Wladimir Palant came along in 2006 and re-wrote it from the ground up. The project is now in the hands of startup Eyeo, but Palant is still the lead developer. Adblock Plus is free, but accepts donations to support development.
At a basic level, Adblock Plus is a filter that sits between a Web browser and the Internet. Each time the Web browser requests something from a remote site (whether that be a Web page, an image, a script, or something else), Adblock Plus quickly compares the request against a sizable (and constantly-changing) list of identifiers known to be associated with online ads. If there's a match, Adblock Plus blocks the request, and voilà: the ad never appears. Adblock Plus also has other tricks that can hide some ads that get past its lists. Users are free to make their own lists, as well as choose between different filter sets and modify their criteria.
Adblock Plus's system relies on constantly-updated lists to identify ads, and by default it lets "acceptable ads" through – basically, ads Eyeo feels are done responsibly and aren't annoying. (Users can choose to block all ads via a manual setting.) Nevertheless, Adblock is tremendously popular and is available as a browser extension for Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and K-Meleon (but notably not for Internet Explorer or Apple's Safari). Adblock Plus claims 15 million daily users and more than 100,000 downloads a day. At the beginning of 2012, Eyeo co-founder Till Faida estimated about 3.5 percent of desktop Internet users had Adblock Plus installed – and in Germany (where Adblock Plus's developers are based) that number was 12 percent.
Adblock Plus's approach on Android is a little different. Most Android browsers do not allow for browser extensions (Firefox being an exception). Also, while ads certainly appear in mobile Web browsers, most mobile ads are actually served to mobile apps, meaning browser-based filtering can't block them at all.
So, Adblock Plus for Android runs as a background application that attempts to filter all Web traffic on Android 2.1 or higher, using the same filtering lists as the desktop versions of Adblock Plus. However, traffic filtering possibilities on Android devices are more limited than desktop computers, so there are some limitations:
- On Android 3.0 and older, Adblock Plus needs to be manually configured as a proxy server. If a device doesn't support proxy configuration, it can't use Adblock Plus.
- On stock Android devices running Android 3.1 or higher, Adblock Plus will be able to filter ads over Wi-Fi only. It won't be able to filter over mobile connections.
- On rooted Android devices, Adblock Plus can filter all unencrypted Web traffic from browsers or apps, but:
- Ads served via SSL-encrypted Web sites get through no matter what.
Eyeo notes Adblock Plus for Android is in early development stages; possible future features include more security and privacy features to enable users to better customize their experience.
The upside of blocking mobile ads
The most obvious reason to consider blocking mobile ads is the same as blocking ads in a desktop browser: plenty of ads are annoying. Whether they're flashing banners, overlays that get in the way of content, pre-rolls before a video, or sneaky things interwoven with (and often indistinguishable from) actual content, mobile ads can be a tremendous frustration. Moreover, on mobile devices screen space is at a premium, and every pixel devoted to mobile advertising is that much more scrolling and fussing users have to do to simply use their devices. Moreover, for folks on mobile data connections rather than Wi-Fi, all the bandwidth consumed by ads can count against monthly data limits. (And it's not unusual for 75 percent or more of the data transfer in a Web page to be taken up by ads.) Eyeo claims these savings from Adblock Plus for Android can make browsing up to 40 percent faster.
On mobile devices, users also need to consider privacy and security. On Android in particular, apps are infamous for sharing users' personal data without asking (like phone numbers, contacts, location, even messages). Much of this "leaking" personal information is associated with ad networks, particularly in ad-supported and "freemium" applications that try to support themselves using mobile advertising. Worse, there's no way for users (or even app developers) to know whether the ad networks they're supporting in their programs are reputable: plenty of mobile ads are misleading, while others are outright scams or try to trick users into installing malware.
Adblock Plus doesn't take the position that all advertising is bad; in fact, before it decided to let "acceptable" advertising through by default, a survey of its users found that only about 25 percent wanted to block ads altogether. The majority of users were fine with ads that weren't annoying, intrusive, or malicious.
"Most people realize that ads are necessary for free content and products, said Eyeo co-founder Till Faida via email. "We have noticed a trend that mobile ads are becoming increasingly intrusive that's why we think it is the right time to launch Adblock Plus for Android now in order to incentivize better advertising practices."
The downside of blocking mobile ads
Not everyone will want to block mobile ads. While there are absolutely obnoxious mobile ads (and normal ads on everyday Web sites can be atrocious in mobile browsers), many mobile users aren't bothered by them at all. Individual mobile advertising experiences vary widely with usage. Some people see almost no mobile advertising, particularly if they tend to use paid apps that get their revenue directly from users. Moreover, some people actually like mobile ads: after all, mobile ads are the kinds of things that might offer you a 25-percent-off coupon next time you wander by a local coffee shop.
If blocking mobile ads became widespread, it could impact development of mobile apps. After all, many "free" apps are ad-supported: users don't have to pay anything up front for the app, in exchange for being shown advertisements. App developers get revenue based on the number of people who view and jump into those ads: if the number of people viewing and clicking those ads declines significantly, so does the revenue going to the developer – and, eventually, that could mean fewer apps, or at least fewer free, ad-supported apps.
Developer Eyeo hopes both developers and mobile ad networks will take notice of Adblock Plus for Android and choose to focus on "acceptable" mobile ad formats – which would presumably be let through Adblock Plus's filters by default.
"We have only launched the app and the user base is way to small for now," noted Eyeo co-founder Faida. "But in the future, when Adblock Plus for Android has reached a certain level of popularity, we will make sure to find a reasonable middle ground between app developers and our users."
It could be a fine line: on the desktop, Adblock Plus has already engaged in a few arms races with advertising networks, some of which have come up with ways to detect whether Adblock Plus's common filters are in effect and either serve ads to those users another way or (in a handful of cases) refuse to let users access the content unless they allow ads or disable Adblock Plus. So far, Adblock Plus's filter lists have quickly caught up with these cases, but there's always the possibility ad networks will choose to fight rather than play nice. Similarly, mobile ad networks might just shift to SSL connections and sidestep Adblock Plus entirely – at least for now.
There's also a question about whether Adblock Plus will gain enough traction on mobile devices that advertisers will even pay attention to it. While Android is the market leader in smartphones – so Adblock Plus has a lot of potential users – it's only Android's comparatively open architecture: a product like Adblock Plus isn't currently possible for closed platforms like iOS or Windows Phone.
Bottom line
Whether or not you're personally bothered by mobile ads, most Internet users want to be in control of their devices and their own Internet experience. That includes what browsers and apps to use, and whether or not they're willing to disclose personal information to advertisers and marketers.
"Adblock Plus comes in by putting users in control over what kind of ads they are willing to accept," wrote Faida. "On mobile there is also the added benefit of increased security and blocking ads saves bandwidth and screen size consumption."
Even though this first version of Adblock Plus for Android has some significant limitations, it gives users more options and the ability to control their browsing and app experiences. That seems like a step in the right direction.

Well then, I would like to mention that your copyright on captured light on a planar surface violates my copyright on "Creating lasting light patter impressions on mediums based on physical realities on microscopic scales" Please pay $400 per 'Photon Imprint'.
I also see that you are attempting to improve your troll skill, I would suggest future troll attacks include a peer reviewed journal, and atleast 4 other reputable sources cited in APA format and a 5 page paper detailing what you are taking exemption to and why. B-
"(ie, when it is proven you are innocent)" Why do I have to be proven innocent? The law here in the USA is Innocent until proven guilty, the burden of proving a suspect's guilt lies on the police and the prosecutor, not on the citizen being accused. AC, the logic you are using is the same logic as those who are Pro-SOPA/PIPA, "If you are not doing anything wrong you have nothing to worry about, right?" Sorry but that does not fly with me, and from what I have seen with most people here on Techdirt. (and yes, I signed up after a year plus of lurking to comment on a AC's post, ironic no?)

Graeme McDowell's towering seven iron tee shot on the fifth hole of his final round in the US Open Championship at Pebble Beach has been awarded The European Tour Shot of the Month for June.
Having started solidly with four pars, McDowell needed something to kick start the quest which would ultimately bring him his first Major Championship and he got it at the testing 195 yard fifth hole, a superbly struck shot pitching in the perfect spot at the front of the green before rolling up to within eight feet of the pin from where he holed for a birdie two.
"That shot was a big turning point for me," said McDowell. "It set up my first and only birdie of the final round. I hit a seven iron which pitched exactly where I wanted it to and it released down to about eight feet on a very tricky par three. That was a big swing for me and gave me the confidence to go on and get the job done that afternoon. It was the right shot at the right time. It was one of the shots I look back on as one of the key shots during the round."
The honour marked a notable award double for the 30 year old Northern Irishman who also picked up The Race to Dubai Golfer of the Month Award for June following his memorable triumph on the Californian coastline.
June provided a plethora of excellent shots for the judging panel to consider and, after much deliberation, second place went to Denmark's Thomas Björn while South Africa's Ernie Els took third.
Björn's shot of note came on the final hole at Penha Longa – an exquisite pitch from 94 yards to within two inches of the hole to help him claim the Estoril Open de Portugal title in style, while Els' stroke of genius came at the short 12th hole in the final round of the US Open – his five iron tee shot pitching in the fringe in front of the green before rolling up to a foot from the hole.
The Shot of the Month Award is presented to a Tour Member for the shot judged to be the best played each month on The European Tour International Schedule. At the end of the season, the winning shot from each month will go forward to contest The European Tour Shot of the Year, won in 2009 by Argentina's Rafa Echenique for his albatross two at the final hole of the BMW International Open in Germany.
The monthly winners to date in 2010 have been Germany's Martin Kaymer (January), England's Ian Poulter (February), Korea's Noh Seung-yul (March), England's Lee Westwood (April) and England's Luke Donald (May).

Rookies help Cincinnati defeat rival
CINCINNATI — Running back Giovani Bernard scored his first two NFL touchdowns, one of them on a short pass that he turned into a 27-yard score, and the Cincinnati Bengals beat Pittsburgh 20-10 on Monday night, extending the Steelers' early-season misery.
The second-round draft pick had a 7-yard touchdown run in the first half before turning a short pass from Andy Dalton into a third-quarter score — a preview of what the Bengals (1-1) could become with a pass-catching threat out of the backfield.
First-round pick Tyler Eifert also had a big play, making a 61-yard catch that set up Bernard's touchdown run.
The Steelers fell to 0-2 for the first time since 2002. An injury-depleted offense couldn't put drives together consistently, letting the Bengals wear down their defense.

"The primary test objectives were, [first] to measure the performance of a two drogue parachute cluster with one drogue skipping the second of two reefing stages," NASA said on its Web site, and second, "to measure the performance of a two main parachute cluster with modified suspension line and riser lengths matching the Apollo configuration ratio. The test platform consisted of a pallet and weight tub and was extracted from a C-130 aircraft at 17,500 feet."
"The Orion MPCV is based on the Orion design requirements for traveling beyond low Earth orbit," NASA wrote on its Web site. "Orion will serve as the exploration vehicle that will carry the crew to space, provide emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during the space travel, and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities."
During this test, the 22,700-pound BTA was traveling at about 24 miles per hour on impact with the water at the Hydro Impact Basin. The idea behind this test is to further "the knowledge and testing of space vehicle landing systems like the MPCV."
