A light rainfall makes my yellow jerusalem artichoke flowers shine even brighter,
and the new broccoli plants are beaded with jewels. As i look out my study window,
a window that has been in my life for 27 years, i am touched by the scene -- a landscape that wasn't here when we moved in, that changes with the seasons... a landscape that once had a swing set and sandbox, where kittens of different colors leapt chasing butterflies, where my little girl grew up, and moved away for college, then moved back, found a job, moved to her own place. No more swing set, no more sandbox, no more multi colored kittens, just one orange tiger tom, our Georgie, and his own paradise to roam in, Haiku Garden.
So, since I announced the much anticipated arrival of Prison Wisdom, I have been busy letting the world know this book of inmate writing and art exists. I have given a "private" launch for my closest local girlfriends, a sermon at the Unitarian Church (titled "Writing Toward Freedom - the Making of Prison Wisdom"), a presentation to the Re-Entry Coalition (all individuals and groups that help released prisoners start a new life, no easy task), and an "event" at the Blue Tavern, a music venue... a blues musician played freedom songs, i gave my "spiel" and chosen readers channeled the words of my inmate writers, to an audience stunned by the power and beauty of these incarcerated authors. In all cases, I offer to sign books, but also to accept "gifted" books, that will make their ways into Prison Libraries and to organizations that help prisoners.
This is my work for now; i am dedicated to it, and to the mission of helping people everywhere understand that people locked away behind bars have something in common with us, have something to give us, that can actually inspire us -- their humanity, their stories, their joys and sorrows, their redemption. I never knew when I began offering writing in the prisons that there would one day be such a book, but it feels like a blessing, a gift that somehow was given to me. Maybe it was just part of my life's purpose -- to
share the benefits of the writing life with others -- or maybe it was some sort of acme, apex, of my journey, that I cannot know now. What I do know is that when i leave this earth -- this book, among my other treasures, will be my legacy.
So, dear friends, the wheel turns, it always does, and in just four months, this woman with a crown of silver and a braid of black (worn over her left shoulder) will be turning 74. Being into numerology, 7 and 4 adds up to 11, and that is the number of the Muse, double the Pioneer Spirit, which means I'll probably be off on some sort of sparkling new adventure,
that I will be sure to let you know about as soon as I know what it is. Or there may be multiple adventures, one never knows. In the meanwhile, I live day to day, at my computer, in the garden, writing with friends (my 700 word story club continues to expand, and i'm adding a free verse component to it), hanging out with my husband, daughter, cat,
planning new engagements for my ongoing Prison Wisdom work (two house parties coming up), and anticipating a trip south for a four day Dances of Peace retreat, always an enchanting interlude...
"Oh peace, deep and divine, enter this heart of mine,
Oh peace, sweet and sublime, enter this heart of mine
Om Om Om Om, Shanti Shanti Shanti"
A reminder of the way it could be, maybe even shall be? How the whole world yearns for it.
... "And into plowshares beat our swords, we shall study no war..."
So, dear readers, let me close with an autumn Haiku, perhaps the weathers gods will hasten my favorite season forward:
My flannel shirt jumps
off its hanger, so ready
to leave the closet
Those of you already anticipating the chill of winter, mufflers and gloves and de-icing windshields, we live in a different country down here!
And that leads me to this: YES, we survived Hurricane Irma, even the horrifying worries as it barreled north, and escaped with ZERO damage. Yes, we lost power for 34 hours, but that was a small price to pay for all our tall backyard trees (waving now in a light breeze) standing tall, roots holding firm. And our new green metal roof happily intact...
May autumn lift your spirits, give you apple cider and round orange pumpkins, bright leaves to crunch through on a Saturday afternoon stroll, and squash slow baking in the oven...

I am happy to announce the arrival of my long-awaited book PRISON WISDOM, just published and waiting for readers to dive in to its poignant, heart-felt, creative, inspiring words and art!
I was 47 years old when I entered the local jail to offer Lifestories and Haiku Poetry for the first time. At the end of that semester, i collected the favorite writings and art of my inmate students to put into an anthology that they called Hey You! I later taught at Tallahassee's Federal Correctional Institution, when it was a men's prison, and they called their collection of writings Out of Sight and Mind. When I was an artist in residence at a women's prison in Monticello, FL, those students called their anthology Beauty behind Walls. And finally, when FCI became a women's prison, in 2010 I created, with my students, a number of anthologies, through 2015. The name for their anthology was Imaginations Uncovered. Excerpts from all of these anthologies are included, unedited, exactly as the inmates penned them, all written from prompts, or "seed phrases" that I use to evoke writing. I.E. I remember a room, A lonely time, A magic moment, When I look in the mirror I see.... We also write poetry together (I always write with my students) explore guided visualizations, fantasy, and a variety of fictions, for example "It was the night of the full moon..." or "I enter the scene..." (looking at a calendar picture), or "I find myself in a room I've never been before..."
As I state on the back cover blurb, "I believe that every person has a creative spark within them, and I hope to evoke 'the wisdom of the pen' in each and every one of my students... As you, the reader, experience...this unique collection, I hope you will be inspired to pick up a pen to tell your own stories..."
The last section of the book, contains the letters and stunning artwork of my prison pen pals, several of them on Death Row. The cover of the book, a sunflower with butterfly,
is one of those artworks. To see this image, please visit the Prison Wisdom page on this website menu.
Now 73, you can do the math and say that this book has been in the making for 25 years! Of course I had no idea when I entered Leon County Jail for the first writing class (in a GED program), that I would be 1)having a prison ministry, or 2)creating a book of Prison writings. I have found, throughout my life, that following my imperatives has led me into adventures I had no idea where they would take me. I'm sure all of you can say the same about various themes that run through your own life.
It is my intention to send my book out to prison libraries, to inspire other incarcerated individuals, but also into public libraries, correctional programs, and to make them available as book club offerings. Each person who orders a book has the opportunity to "gift" a book to a prison library. In this way we all become disseminators of the Prison Wisdom message,
that the humanity hidden away behind bars has beauty and courage to share with us, to inspire us; as we read, we may find ourselves looking into a mirror, saying not "this could be me" but "there I am."
Here are two Haiku from women at FCI, the first asked to write about her hands:
Tiny little hands
soft with strength and capable
to change this lost world
And secondly, if life is a book:
My life is a book
some chapters are sad, but theres
a plot twist youll love
I invite you now to visit the Prison Wisdom page, and to spread the word to friends and colleagues who you think might enjoy the book and support the cause.
Meanwhile, as I prepare for local launches, speaking engagements, sermons, etc. I look out the window at my garden and know for sure Spring is here, gliding easily, here in the south, into summer. My life goes on "in endless song," or in my case "in endless flowers and vegetables!" When you plant a seed, something comes up; sometimes it's a poem, sometimes it's a story, sometimes it's a cherry tomato or a cucumber or a gardenia flower.
What a mystery, the fecundity of the earth and of human life. Treasure it now.
I will close with one more quote from the book. The prompt was "I have a Dream."
"I have a dream of pain come to past. I live in a world where there is no controlling, people love freely and hate is not known. Nature is our friend and we respect it. No more storms, just tranquility. We live with an open mind and heart. Innocence is our nature." Chris

And indeed, with the publication of my book Prison Wisdom (due out this month), I leap into a new world, a world in which this book makes its debut and spreads its message near and far.
I invite my readers, friends and strangers alike, to help me pursue this goal, by letting others know about the book, and helping me distribute it to prison libraries, beginning in Florida and then radiating outwards. It is my dream, that indeed this book of inmate writing (and correspondance and art) be used as a textbook in corrections programs, in social work classes, and even as supplementary reading in literature classes, for the wisdom of the pen, in the hands of these writers, invites all to pick up their own pen and write.
Soon enough Prison Wisdom will be available through my publisher (EWH Press), (watch for link in my next blog, as soon as the books are ready to "roll")... but in the meanwhile, I haven't stopped writing -- stories, poems, mini-essays, because it is my nature to do so, and I hope this is the case up until the very end of my life. I include a recent Out the Window Poem as one example:
Outside the window
life goes on
and in the inside, same
What do we make
of the tick of the clock
warning us
time slippeth away
or courses through us
like every breath
Listen to the music
of the trees
oh how they serenade
the sky, the owls, the ferns
how they reach out with
branches and roots
to touch the under layers
and those above
while outside the window
you are invited to partake
of the bounty you've forgotten to see
until now...
And the garden grows, the vegetables establish roots, the tendrils grasp the lattice,
the bees buzz around, the flowers do what they know how to do so well -- they bloom --
hibiscus, geranium, petunias, salvia, marigolds, vinca, impatiens; the butterflies flirt,
the birds alight on the feeder, the rain falls, the sun comes out, the moon goes behind a cloud, the moon lights up the entire sky, the wind chimes rings in the breeze, the woman notices her world, which is so fecund, so nurturing to her soul. And she prays, for the immigrants, for the prisoners, for the hungry, for justice, for enlightenment of the powers that be, we too are powerful, we too give of our light to the world, never ever give up,
and as she writes these words, a stray sunbeam lights up the prism in her window, and the rainbows dance their shimmering magic....
Saying, now is the time to begin anew, to send out one's intentions, to add one's coin to the fountain, "May all beings be well, may all beings be happy, peace, peace, peace..."

I have lived thru my first and hopefully my last Hurricane, with Hermine. We were fortunate that none of our very tall trees fell on house, car, or cat, though one tree fell thru the neighbors fence into their yard. However, the damage in Myers Park, across the road from us, was devastating. Many beautiful, ancient trees were uprooted, splayed with their roots exposed,their long torsos and branches downed forever. I could not avoid seeing the carnage, and the line of poetry that kept running through my brain was open graves of beauty as I gazed at the fallen giants. I finally sat on my back porch, opened my journal, and wrote my elegy to them.
After Hurricane Hermine
Even in this golden light
I see the fallen trees
in their open grave of beauty
roots asunder
no longer vertical,
these giants,
but splayed upon the earth
bridges over nothing
How many decades, how many
hundreds of years
had they been standing watch
as we just blindly went on
ignoring them
until perhaps we caught
the moon in her branches
one crisp autumn night
You won't be holding the moon now
you'll be hugging the earth
your birth mother
until every shred of you
bark and twig and leaf
is transmogrified
just mulch,
and yet I can see you
as you waved your branches
in the days of summer
before your slaughter
I saw you before you fell.
* * *
I have written poetry all my life, and I find it sustains and uplifts me. Its also a gift one can share with others.
One of my pen pals up north, Eve, teaches a creative writing class, and she sometimes sends me the prompts. This one was My Life as a Book Poem. I sat down and the following emerged (thanks to the kindness of my Muse):
If my Life were a Book Poem
If my life were a book
I would want you to savor it
to turn the pages slowly
to revel in subtlety and
its counterpoint boldness
I would want you
to read my book with a lover
holding hands and stopping
now and again to gaze
into each others eyes
as if to say
yes, how true, how tender!
If my life were a book
it would remind you of grasses
blowing in the wind
and puffy clouds floating over
a serene blue pond
where a swan swims mutely
My book would lift you up
and make you cry
giving you every reason to
and then, as you weep
you cant help also laughing
because everything meets in the middle
You could read any page at random
while sitting on a swing
or eating rocky road ice cream
or dabbling your feet in the lapping waves
or stirring homemade applesauce
My book is ripe for picking
never boring, always in style
both mystical and commonplace
like the evening sunset
You dont want it to end
and I dont want it to either
I just want to go on writing
my life as a book
and never ever run out of ink.
* * *
Finally, some Autumn Haiku (and a few others tossed into the mix):
Sweeping the courtyard
to tidy my life again
tomorrow, the same
Cucumber tendrils
know how to climb the wire fence
the sun teaches them
Pens around the house
in case I want to scribble
a sudden haiku
To shiver is good
Ive waited the long summer
for this cool moment
Brushing my long hair
while my cat stares at me hmm
how strange Kas fur is
A few pink blossoms
on ragged zinnia stems
not ready to quit
Hummingbird poses
on spiky autumn flowers
but my pen is too slow
* * *
In this harvest season, and in the Jewish New Year number 5777 (!), I take stock of my life.
My book Prison Wisdom is currently in the able hands of my graphic designer, and it will
no doubt be out by my birthday (Jan 23). I anticipate several launch parties, a potential sermon at my Unitarian Church, a Go Fund Me campaign to get copies of the book into Prison Libraries around Florida, etc. The timing is right for this book to be valued as the testimony of those locked up behind bars, or of what one inmate anthology called Beauty Behind Walls.
I continue to generate 700 word stories with various pen pals, including a linked novella of 34 episodes (followed by the author interviewing her characters) called The Greta Tales, which hopefully will be made available in the near future Ill keep you posted.
I praise the wild daisy blooms of the swamp sunflower in my garden, the burgeoning fruit on Grandma Roses Grapefruit Tree, the butterflies and hummingbirds cavorting around my spiky fire bush shrub, the shivery cool breeze that calls for a robe and slippers as Tom and I read the morning newspaper on the back deck and sip strong French roast coffee
May all of us be safe from storm, from sadness, divisiveness, self-doubt. May we each find ways to cheer each other on through the many challenges we face as the year 2016 comes to completion. May our dreams find fulfillment, and may the fruit of our labors taste sweet.
Autumn wind chimes ring /summoning the bird duets/ harmony calling

The good news is that Prison Wisdom is in the hands of my publisher, Jeff, of EWH Press,who is currently going over the manuscript with a fine-tooth comb, soon to be passed on to my graphic designer to upgrade and highlight the artwork and other graphic elements, to finalize the more than 330 pages that make up the volume. My dream is to send copies to Oprah and Obama, to help grow the numbers of individuals who will finally hold Prison Wisdom in their hands, and be moved by its eloquent and poignant message. A message that says we all long for liberation, we can all hear the voice of the muse when we take pen in hand to tell our unique story -- whether of pain or pleasure, sadness or joy, hope or discouragement. As one of my early readers of one sample anthology put it, "When you read this you won't say there but for the grace of God go I, but rather there I am."
With a world full of violence and polarization, we long for antidotes, we long for a healing balm to offset the mind-numbing atrocities that fill our media and our neighborhoods. What will this healing balm be? How can we unify in the face of suffering rather than add to it? Oh, these eternal and existential questions, tormenting in their frequency. If I had the answer, I would weave it into every poem, essay, and story, I would plant it with every seed, and watch it grow, and flourish. If I had the answer I could be "Queen for a Day," or the Goddess of Rebirth. How trite, how sentimental, to think one can counter misery with love, with bouquets of flowers, with baskets of red tomatoes, with friends dancing freely celebrating their right to exist.
Let me then be sentimental, let me add my voice to the peace-makers of the world,
let me bless newborn babies with a homeopathic vaccine against fear, let me rejoice
when sanity, justice, and a life's purpose for each human, finally exists, as the unbroken promise, guaranteed each one of us, through the long arc of our journey on earth.
"You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."

A memorial service for the partner of state Sen. Pat Steadman is scheduled for Sept. 24 at the Denver Botanic Gardens.
Dave Misner died early Sunday after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 48.
Misner was on the floor of the Senate in April when Steadman presented his bill to allow gay couples to form civil unions. The bill died in the House.
"We were very much in love," Steadman said.
The lawmaker said the choice of the Botanic Gardens for the memorial service is fitting because Misner in 2004 dressed in a polar-bear costume to push for the successful reauthorization of the metro-area Scientific and Cultural Facilities District tax.
Despite the fact that the costume was hot and it was difficult to see out of, the 6-foot-1 Misner wore it everywhere that received funding from the metro-area tax: the Botanic Gardens, the zoo, museums and a series of festivals, including the Cherry Creek Arts Festival.
"Dave loved it," Steadman said. "He was hugged by literally thousands of kids that year."
Misner's service will be at 10:30 a.m. in Mitchell Hall, with a reception following at the Denver Botanic Gardens.
Misner — a Denver parking- enforcement officer — was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in late June. Steadman began alerting friends Saturday morning that hospice believed Misner had little time left and to come see him at their Capitol Hill home as soon as possible.
Misner and Steadman were a frequent fixture on the political scene.
"He was such a partner and a great political spouse," Steadman said. "He was so popular at all the events I got to take him to. People always wanted to know if I was bringing Dave with me to their event."

To my Canadian friends a Happy Canada Day to you. When the Tour de France begins this weekend, I believe Ryder Hesjedal of Team Garmin Slipstream will be the only Canadian at this race.

Happy Tuesday. The weather today in the San Francisco Bay Area should be more pleasant than yesterday's sweltering hot afternoon. More bike stuff below the photo of Ian happily leading the way to north San Jose on Bike to Work Day last May. Okay!
Happy Hump Day, and say hello to Circulus.
Happy Canada Day – Fête du Canada. On July 1, 1867, the British Parliament created the nation of Canada out of its North American colonies through the British North America Act of 1867.
Which bicycling related term beginning with "H" I can use for the title alliteration in this post? Headset? Hairnet? Hoo haw? About about "Hit and run"? I'll begin this edition of bike news with this hairy incident of a San Francisco bus driver who hits a cyclist on Market Street… and keeps going.

…Porque assim foi meu feriado: louco, pirado e inconseqüente (ressaca moral, alguém?). Ou seja? Ótimo.
Portanto, ainda estou me recuperando e quis deixar o novo clipe ótimo, pirado e inconseqüente do MGMT, "Kids".
Pra cantar junto:
You were a child
Crawling on your knees toward him
Making momma so proud
But your voice is too loud
We like to watch you laughing
Picking insects off of plants
- No time to think of consequences
Control yourself
Take only what you need from him
A family of trees wanting to be haunted
Control yourself
Take only what you need from him
The water is warm
But it's sending me shivers
A baby is born
Crying out for attention
Memories fade
Like looking through a fogged mirror
Decisions too
Decisions are made
Decisions are made and not bought
But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot
I guess not
ps: esse clipe bem que merecia uma advertência de "nenhuma criança foi ferida durante as filmagens"… 8)

I have mentioned many times in my previous articles that Blogging is equal to journalism. I got many emails from my readers asking me how blogging is equal to Journalism. The email looks like:
Hi Himanshu,
I am very pleased with your articles. You have mentioned that blogging is Journalism in your post "Top 10 advantages of blogging". I am surprised with your conclusion because Journalism involves too many reporters and lots of employees who can deliver news to you anytime. But in Blogging there is involvement of only one person who collects the news from various resources and make available to their readers. Can you please clear my doubts?
Peter asked a very genuine question. How can we compare blogging with Journalism? First of all it is not necessary that blogging is a one man show (though lots of time it is). In blogging the owner of blog maintains the blog write the post (article or content) and promotes the site through various marketing sites.

According to Wikipedia
Journalism is the craft of conveying news, descriptive material and comment via a widening spectrum of media. These include newspapers, magazines, radio and television, the internet and even, more recently, the mobile phone. Journalists—be they writers, editors or photographers; broadcast presenters or producers—serve as the chief purveyors of information and opinion in contemporary mass society.
From the above definition it is clear that Blogging is closely related to Journalism. Blogging can also play important medium to connect mass society.
Blogger is an editor
In print media there is journalist, reporters, editors, publishers and distributors who help in gathering and distribution of news. Blogging is somehow different. Blogger (may be any single person or team) plays the major role involves in gathering, publishing or promoting all the news.
Blogger play an important role in editing the entire article. The most difficult problem any blogger face is his career is choice of topics. A dilemma always exists in blogger's mind about the selection of topics. There are lots of things to write on the blog. One can take an inspiration from Google Wonder Wheel or Feed Readers.
Editing requires proof reading. One should read post twice before publishing it. Also proper strategy is required to distributing content. There are various sites to distribute content. Sites like Stumbleupon, Ycombinator and Diggbrings lots of traffic to the blog.
Print Media Vs Blogging
There are lots of difference between print media and Blogging. There are lots of complicity involved in both the process. I am not telling anything about which is better. Both the sources have their own importance. But there are few points which distinguish online and offline media.
Conversation Blogging is also a conversation but there is very little conversation in Print media.
Punctuality is also a main reason, it is not necessary in blogging to publish a post daily but print media should deliver news daily.
Personal: Blogs are personal or it can be informal but print media must be formal.
Comments Comments is a feature in blog while in print media there is no comment involved.
When I started Blogging I was never serious about the process involved in the Blogging. I thought blogging is very easy but in reality punctuality is very necessary for delivering news through blogging. Blogging is emerging very fast in comparison to print media. There are lots of blogs delivering news very efficiently.

Bioengineering challenges facing the leaders of the new millennium are complex and, based on their application, offer more effective cures for global disease and improved quality of life for aging populations or people with disabilities. The Department of Bioengineering at Rice University is an exemplary academic and research institution that believes no single discipline will provide the answers future scientists, business leaders, professionals, and politicians will need. To train the next generation of leaders in bioengineering, we have built an innovative teaching program that transcends boundaries between bioengineering, basic science, and clinical medicine; integrating the academic, industrial, and societal perspectives.
Our hands-on approach to education is supported by a long-standing tradition of cross-disciplinary research and education. The Rice bioengineering program is comprehensive and provides students with a fundamental understanding of the life and medical sciences, advanced analytical and engineering capabilities, and translational research that transfers biotechnical advances from bench to bedside.
With this educational background, doctoral graduates will be well prepared to:
The following courses are required prerequisites. If a student does not have evidence on their undergraduate transcript that they have received credit for these courses they must take them as part of the Ph.D. curriculum.
The following core courses are required for all Ph.D. students:
Students must take a minimum of five graduate level (500 or above) bioengineering (BIOE) courses for a total of 15 credit hours.
There are six specialization tracks that reflect research interests within the Bioengineering Department. Students may elect a specialization track and take three supporting courses in that area of interest. Students must consult with an adviser regarding appropriate courses to support their chosen track.
A large array of advanced specialty courses is available to Rice bioengineering graduate students. Each student should select the courses most appropriate for his/her research with the help of the thesis adviser. Advanced topic courses may be used to meet the 30 semester hours of graduate level courses.
Students must register for the graduate seminars (BIOE 698 in the fall and BIOE 699 in the spring) every semester of their first three years of study. Students beyond their third year are not required to attend, but are highly encouraged to do so. These courses are given on a pass/fail basis only. Attendance at the seminars is mandatory unless the absence has been excused in advance by the course administrator. Graduate students may miss up to two seminars per semester. Seminars are given by leaders from the field of bioengineering. Following each seminar, there is time scheduled for graduate students to meet with the speaker for an informal discussion. Attendance at these sessions is not mandatory, but strongly recommended.
The university minimum requirement for the doctorate degree is 90 semester hours. Bioengineering doctoral students must:
No foreign language is required for an advanced degree in bioengineering. About four to six years of study are normally necessary to complete the Ph.D. degree requirements. Policies in graduate studies and program details are found in the Rice University General Announcements.

In the past, The Greenbrier in West Virginia has played host to such prestigious events as the Ryder Cup and the Solheim Cup. This week, the world-class resort welcomes the PGA Tour for the inaugural Greenbrier Classic. We checked in with Greenbrier PGA Head Professional Hill Herrick for a little insight into what it's like with the tournament about to start. PGA.com: Thanks so much for joining us, Hill, and congratulations on this week's inaugural Greenbrier Classic. I would imagine it's an exciting time there. Can you talk a little about what the anticipation of the event has been like? Herrick: The tournament was announced last August 5, which to my understanding is pretty short notice. But, since it was announced, I can tell you it's been nothing but non-stop excitement since then. We have never had a Tour event before. We've had the Ryder Cup the Solheim Cup and a senior event, but never a regular Tour event. This is amazing. Business has been slow everywhere because of the economy, but this is going to be great for the community. This is the biggest event we've ever had. I know that's saying a lot, but the truth is when we had the Ryder Cup in 1979 it wasn't the event it's become today. PGA.com: Two legends of the game are synonymous with The Greenbrier - the late Sam Snead and five-time British Open champion Tom Watson. Can you tell us about their connection to The Greenbrier? Herrick: They're both connected in very different ways, actually. Sam Snead was from Hot Springs, Va., which is less than an hour away and he started coming to The Greenbrier in 1936. The hotel was closed during World War II and Sam left on bad terms in 1974. Eventually, he was talked into returning and from 1993 until he passed away in 2002, he was the resort's emeritus pro. His presence is still everywhere at The Greenbrier from photos to Sam Snead's at the Golf Club restaurant. As I mentioned, with Tom Watson it was a totally different relationship. We had the Ryder Cup in 1979. Tom was on that team, but his wife went into labor early in the week and he went back to Kansas City. But, he loved the Greenbrier. In 1980, he started brining his sponsors here in the fall to play golf and to wine and dine them. Tom had been here once a year for 30 years, then our former owners started an outing in 1989 Memorial Day weekend and Tom was the headliner. So, he's been coming twice a year for the last 18 years and also stops by for vacation. He's a great ambassador for us. We have the Tom Watson Fall Classic, so that's probably when we'll see him next. PGA.com: How much does this tournament mean to the community? I already see where Kenny Perry has pledged to donate $2,000 for every birdie he makes during the tournament to the 29 families affected by the April mining disaster. Herrick: Our goal is well defined. The most money raised for a first-year Tour event was $1.6 million in Charlotte. We want to double that and we're well on our way. We have plenty of options for donating through weekly passes and other initiatives. As much as 30 percent of the ticket packages costs can be donated to the charity of the buyer's choice. It's very worthwhile to the community and the state. That was a special gesture by Kenny and our owner, Jim Justice, has said he's going to match Kenny. Obviously, everyone in this area was touched by the mining disaster here. PGA.com: As the host PGA Professional, what are you most looking forward to about tournament week? Herrick: I think it's the excitement. We'll be exposed to the world. I just heard we're going to be on TV 31 hours and that's going to be outstanding exposure for the resort, long term. The week will be fun. The generation of the players now haven't been here yet. The Ryder Cup players are well on the Champions Tour or beyond. There are probably less than five players that will be in the field that have actually been here before, I think. They'll enjoy the whole experience. They'll rave about the hotel, the casino, all the amenities. We want feedback on everything, not just golf. PGA.com: What's the most vital part of the game players will need to command in order to be successful on the Old White Course? Herrick: They need to play smart off the tee. We've restored the course. Lester George came in, in 2003 and made it a more strategic course with cross bunkers - he brought it back to the way it was years ago.

Fashion Face-Off: Paul Wesley vs. Pee Wee Hermanby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Can a pretend vampire knock off a childhood icon in the latest edition of the THG Fashion Face-Off?
That's the question Paul Wesley faces, as The Vampire Diaries star is pitted again Paul Reubens in the contest below. Both this actor and the man better known as Pee Wee Herman posed this weekend at Spike TV's Scream Awards.
Which style do you prefer, readers? The v-necked black t-shirt and skinny jeans? Or the sunglasses and grey tuxedo? The contrasts ought to make for a classic battle. Best of luck to both sides!

Join Beckett Baseball's Chris Olds and Brian Fleischer as they rip into boxes of 2013 Topps Tier One in this latest edition of Box Busters.
What will they find inside? Watch and find out.
nice looking product ……..but call me old fashion I still enjoying ripping 24 packs and chasing that one jewel as much as i did when i a child !!!!!! These one pack products just don't excite me
i dont know how you keep your cool pulling a ruth relic! and a #/25 auto. that box defies the odds!
Not bad cards, but a little high priced. The Ruth is outstanding! Hope you guys give it away soon (in my dreams! Haha!) And just to help, Pirate fans say Raise the Jolly Rodger, which is the Pirate flag. Thanks for the break guys!
Overpriced garbage.
It is sad to say the Ruth card you pulled is better (higher value) than any card I pulled from the case I opened. Maybe my case was a rare odd ball but you would think Topps would make sure that if a buyer pays about $1,200 for a sealed case they would get close to $1,200 in cards. Isn't that the benefit of buying a sealed case?

Now, this is the bit that puzzles me: if I write the following: (assume the C is correct, please :) int file = open("blah", O_WRONLY); write(file, buffer, 40000); fsync(file); After the fsync call, where is the content of buffer?

The second option actually sounds good to me, but that's because it lets real work proceed as soon as possible, but still works hard to empty something that's been very busy recently and, thus, is likely to be so again. > Writing them all out gets good clustering and hence throughput.

The code looks that way (unless the journal is destroyed or the FS remounted, of course.) In that case, log_do_checkpoint /isn't/ related to the slowdowns that I see, because there just isn't 100MB of data floating around, no matter which way I >> That means that the second or so of write-out every five seconds is >> because I have plenty of spare RAM for buffering output, but my disks >> are poor, slow IDE devices that write slowly. > > And the blocks are allocated all over the disk :( Yeah, that is a pain.

The Social Impacts of Light Weapons Availability and Proliferation
The purpose of this article is to explore the systemic processes which have facilitated universal proliferation and describe some of the impacts these processes have had on particular societies. This has led the author to two sets of observations based on the available empirical and anecdotal evidence. Firstly, the proliferation and use of light weapons and small arms within societies around the world can be seen as symptomatic of deeper problems at within the fabric of these societies. Therefore, to understand the effect of the light weapons equation, it is necessary to place it in the broader context of prevailing political, social and economic trends. Secondly, it is apparent that the availability and use of these weapons affects the pace and direction of societal violence. In areas where structural violence is already severe, the proliferation of light weapons and small arms accelerates prevailing trends of societal dysfunction, political anarchy and the undermining of state authority. it is also apparent that where the overall framework of state authority is not challenged, the proliferation of arms exacerbates deep social problems and widens domestic fissures.

My Secret Keyword Research Tool
Categories: SEO
Most keyword tools are nearly obsolete. As you may know, there were a bunch of keyword tools that became toast when Yahoo's Overture Inventory finally died and no longer responded.
Most tools either changed to another source or simply just died a slow death. One keyword service that continued to thrive and had over 3 sources going for it was NicheBOT.
That's the difference between a keyword service and a keyword tool.
A keyword service that stays on top of all the latest developments and usually has contracts with all the major keyword providers.
If you could look into a keyword and be able to see some history and month-by-month activity, you would be able to better judge whether or not the keyword is worthy to go after versus others, right?
Only makes sense.
And what if you could click one button and be able to pop up a chart that lets you compare a bunch of keywords and shows you which one is on the upward cycle of demand and which is on the downward cycle.
Wouldn't that be kick butt?
Well — it's totally possible all within one interface.
If you are really, truly interested in picking winning keywords on a consistent basis, do yourself a favor and check the link below…
Just to give an idea on the power in my hands. Let me show you how I do my keyword research.
Most of the time, you to a free online keyword tool and key in a keyword. Let's say Kate Moss. You get to the free wordtracker service and you get something like this.
|2,515 searches (top 100 only)
|total searches
|kate moss
|how much does kate moss weigh
|kate moss gallery
|kate moss naked
|kate moss statue
|kate moss pregnant
|kate moss hot
|kate moss peter sex tape
|kate moss weight
|kate moss gold
|kate moss is haggard
|kate moss gold statue
|kate moss pics
|kate moss dancing
|kate moss photos
|how tall is kate moss
|fashion file kate moss
|kate moss agent provocateur
|kate moss calvin klein posters
|kate moss fan sites
The problem with this is that you don't have an idea exactly how competitive these keywords are. But with my secret keyword service that I'm using called Nichebot X, I get something like this.
With this, I can easily spot that the keyword "how much does kate moss weigh" doesn't have that many competition. The value in the competition column is set to the number of sites that used the exact keyword phrase on its title tag (which is a better measure of the competition sites).
So this tells me that if I create a good content for that keyword. Build up a few incoming links to it, I could most probably land on the 1st page of google and yahoo for that keyword.
Isn't that simply AMAZING!?!
Here's another great reason why I chose Nichebot. It actually tells me which keywords have practically zero competition. I'm not referring to zero search engine results for that keyword but zero results for the search for websites that used the exact keyword phrase on its title.
Sort of like this query.
But I don't have to do such query for each and every keyword. It is all given to me by this keyword service.
It labeled such keywords as "Jackpot".
And this is just one of the many features! You can't imagine how valuable this tool is. This is truly a money making tool and is one the secret tools I use to create adsense sites, and affiliate sites.
Now that's why I like Nichebot X. Don't take my word for it – Try it out and see for yourself.

Chelsea Transfer Rumors: Edinson Cavani Smart to Pursue Big Money from BluesJuly 18, 2012
Chelsea transfer target Edinson Cavani is a smart man to pursue £150,000 a week from the Blues.
According to the Daily Mail, Cavani is asking for money that would put him on the same level with Chelsea mainstays such as John Terry, Frank Lampard and Fernando Torres.
Cavani, who can leave Napoli for £35million, is one of the options being considered by Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo as he looks to fill the gaping hole left by Didier Drogba. - via the Daily Mail
Knowing that Chelsea are interested in his world-class striking ability, Cavani is wise to at the very least make an attempt to capitalize on his superb play.
Cavani scored 23 goals and tallied three assists for Napoli last season during Italian Serie A play. The Uruguayan star is only 25 years old, and would provide the Blues with an elite presence up front to consistently put balls on the net in place of Drogba.
Nevermind the perception of greed and the me-first mentality, because the sport is littered with superstars who share the same sentiment as Cavani in this case.
If he plans on delivering goals as often as Torres, then why shouldn't he be paid like Torres?
Cavani is a young, talented forward with immense potential. Although he would come at an impressive cost to Chelsea, they are riding a rare wave of momentum after winning their first ever Champions League, and to let it fizzle out by not retooling properly, would be a waste and a shame.
Cavani is smart to do demand what he feels he is worth from Chelsea, and the Blues would be every bit as wise to acquire such a talent to contend with.

The self hosted version of WordPress is used to power approximately 25 million websites and this growing at an incredible rate. WordPress has gone from a simple blogging platform to the best all-round content management system and it's being adopted far and wide.
I've been building websites on WordPress since 2007 and have created many WordPress plugins, some of which are publicly released (see below). I've also written articles on how to develop for WordPress, how to hack it to improve it's functionality and shared my opinion on things in the WordPress ecosystem.

ABC News made a big splash this morning by reporting this about the CIA's now-discredited Benghazi talking points:
ABC News has obtained 12 different versions of the talking points that show they were extensively edited as they evolved from the drafts first written entirely by the CIA to the final version distributed to Congress and to U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice before she appeared on five talk shows the Sunday after that attack.
ABC has helpfully posted the dozen versions of the talking points, so we can track the editing of them ourselves. Here are the main takeaways:
1) The talking points confirm that the intelligence community had determined at the time that the "the demonstrations in Benghazi were spontaneously inspired by the protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo and evolved into a direct assault against the U.S. Consulate." The key words there are "spontaneously" and "evolved." That assessment does not change in any of the subsequent revisions.
This confirms that the version of events the administration initially offered was, in fact, grounded in the intelligence community's assessment at the moment (which turned out to be wrong). However, Susan Rice falsely extrapolated from the talking points during her now infamous TV appearances that the anti-Islam video was the cause of the attacks. That isn't what the talking points say. They only say the protests were the genesis of them. The talking points don't mention the video.
2) The talking points clarify exactly how the reference to al-Qa'ida was edited out. In the initial versions, the talking points say that "we do know that Islamic extremists with ties to al-Qa'ida participated in the attack." That was subsequently cut down to "Islamic extremists," and then to just "extremists."
So it's true that the reference to al-Qa'ida was in fact deleted. And at one point, the talking points specifically name the group Ansar al-Sharia, which was also deleted.
But ABC reports that a State Department official objected to inclusion of the specific names because "we don't want to prejudice the investigation." There's no clear evidence of any other motive at this point.
What's more, the talking points never describe the attacks as premeditated terrorism. They just say that "extremists" with ties to al-Qa'ida "participated" in the attacks.
3) The talking points do confirm that they were edited at the urging of the State Department, and a leaked email shows that this was partly out of a concern over appearances. This portion was deleted entirely:
The Agency has produced numerous pieces on the threat of extremists linked to al-Qa'ida in Benghazi and eastern Libya. Since April, there have been at least five other attacks against foreign interests in Benghazi by unidentified assailants, including the June attack against the British Ambassador's convoy. We cannot rule out the individuals has previously surveilled the U.S. facilities, also contributing to the efficacy of the attacks.
ABC News reports that an email from State Department spokesman Victoria Nuland shows that she objected to the inclusion of that portion. She said she was "concerned," because it "could be abused by members [of Congress] to beat up the State Department for not paying attention to warnings, so why would we want to feed that either?"
So here's where we are. The talking points were edited more extensively than the White House initially said, and with more direct involvement by the State Department. Indeed, spokesman Jay Carney, in his statement to ABC News, carefully elided this point by claiming that "the only edits made by anyone here at the White House were stylistic and non-substantive." Emphasis mine; that was not Carney's original claim.
It's clear also that worry over appearances was at least partly the reason for at least one of the State-driven edits.
At the same time, the talking points also show that the intelligence community had not concluded at that point that the attacks were pre-meditated terror, believed that they had "evolved" from "spontaneous" protests, and that al Qa'ida extremists had merely "participated" in them. In assessing the situation, the administration (with the exception of Rice's false implication of the video) was, in fact, largely repeating what the intelligence community believed at the time. It may well be true that the administration was too slow in subsequent days to acknowledge that the attacks were terrorism, but there's still no clear evidence of any nefarious motive in doing so or that it wasn't largely taking its cues from the intelligence community's own evolving assessment.

Rumor: iPhone 8 to see improved waterproofing features worthy of "IP68" rating
Date: Monday, January 16th, 2017, 05:13
Category: Hardware, iPhone, Rumor, Samsung
It arrives sometime this fall and may be the iPhone upgrade you're waiting for.
The iPhone 8 is presently rumored to feature a glass chassis redesign, bezel-less screen and might also best the iPhone 7 with even higher resistance to water and dust.
The Korea Herald reports that the iPhone 8 will tout an IP68 rating for water resistance and dust. This means it can withstand submersion for up to 30 minutes in about a metre deep water.

One of the biggest buzz of this year is about to come true. Come June 2014 and you did be able to see yet another Internet giant joining the arenaread more...
Apple Passes RIM and Becomes the 4th Mobile Vendor in the World
The latest statistics from the International Data Corporation (IDC) in the Q3 this year shows that Apple bypass RIM and take over the fourth spot on their list of global mobile phone vendors, thanks to the great success of sales of iPhone 4 in the last few months.
The reports shows that Apple has shipped 14.1 million by the end of the third quarter of 2010. Of course Nokia tops the sales with 110.4 million shipments followed by Samsung and LG. Of course you have to put in mind that Nokia, LG and Samsung have wider range of sales than Apple including lots of mobile phones and smartphones. Apple is the only company that has one model on the market which is the iPhone. So, Apple still my number 1, what about you?

Fourth NASCAR Canadian Tire Series Career Pole; Second at GP3R
Alex Tagliani claimed the pole position for the JuliaWine.com 100 in NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1 qualifying on Saturday at the Grand Prix de Trois-Rivieres.
Tagliani – a native of Lachenaie, Que. – got around the 1.53-mile street circuit in 67.080 seconds for an average speed of 82.111 mph. The time bettered the previous track record of 67.661 seconds (81.406 mph) set by Andrew Ranger in 2009 by over a half-second. It was the second pole win at the famed track for the IZOD IndyCar Series regular, having last earned the honor in 2009, and the fourth of his Canadian Tire Series career that will cover 16 starts. His last pole win in the series came in June 2011 at Circuit ICAR in Mirabel, Que.
Local Trois-Rivieres product Louis-Philippe Dumoulin – second in the series standings – was second fastest at 67.355 seconds (81.776 mph). He started from the pole at GP3R last season before finishing second to Ranger in the race.
Marc-Antoine Camirand earned the start in the Canadian Tire Series race by winning a Quebec Sportsman race on Friday night. The sports car-racing veteran with 20 GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series starts to his credit recorded the third-best time in qualifying at 67.376 seconds (81.750 mph). Camirand will make his first series start in Sunday's JuliaWine.com 100.
Former Formula One and IndyCar Series champion Jacques Villeneuve qualified fourth at 67.467 seconds (81.640 mph) followed by J.R. Fitzpatrick in fifth with a time of 67.576 seconds (81.508 mph).
Alex Labbe, Martin Roy, defending series champion D.J. Kennington, Kerry Micks and Alex Guenette rounded out the top 10.
Points leader Scott Steckly, who has won each of the last three series events, qualified 14th.
Each of the top-six qualifiers eclipsed Ranger's track record as cooler than normal weather kept the track temperature down.
The JuliaWine.com 100 is set to get underway on Sunday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. ET.

Brevard NC
Brevard, North Carolina, has a great little downtown. A stately courthouse sits on a square with a gazebo where community concerts are held. Brevard's downtown has 50 or so shops including antique malls, galleries, and the popular O.P. Taylor toy store and White Squirrel Shoppe (both on the square across from the stately courthouse). Don't miss the Red Wolf Gallery.
Brevard is located along Highway 64 and surrounded by the Pisgah National Forest. With 250 waterfalls, it's no wonder Transylvania County is known as the Land of Waterfalls. It's a great place for a lunch or dinner break from hiking at nearby Looking Glass Rock or the waterfalls of DuPont State Forest. To find wonderful nearby hiking and waterfalls nearby.
Head west on Highway 64 towar Cashiers for Gorges State Park and the Nantahala National Forest, home to Panthertown Valley and Schoolhouse Falls.
For a small mountain town, Brevard has more than its share of culture. It is home to the world-renowned Brevard Music Center (and its amazing summer music line-up) and the Paul Porter Center at Brevard College.
If you adopt one of their protected white squirrels, you can get discounts at many of the shops. The white squirrels are a unique feature. They are not albinos because they have dark eyes, but are rather a rare breed that has flurished here since being "introduced" in 1951. The story goes that a pair of the squirrels were given to H. H. Mull, who gave them to his daughter. One escaped from its cage, so Mr. Mull let the other one out. And the rest is history.

Stendhal syndrome in San MarcoBy
I can tell you precisely when was the last time I sat and looked at art. It was Easter morning, and I wasn't in a museum.
We were sitting in the front row of the basilica of San Marco and the occasion was the elaborate festal mass. The sermon was well underway. I had had every intention of listening carefully, because it was the new patriarch's maiden voyage and I had been curious to check his rigging and navigation skills on one of the biggest days of the year.
If you'd like to know more, you'll need to ask someone else. Because while he didn't drift into uncharted political or theological waters (I'm finished with this metaphor now), as his predecessor used to do, he wanted to convey a message I couldn't follow, and he was in no hurry to finish it. It was the religious equivalent of the stationary bicycle.
To be fair, he could just as well have been reading the Government Printing Office Style Manual, because the basilica of San Marco is an Olympics-level competitor if you're trying to get somebody's attention. So I made the most of being installed in my seat for a while, and let my eyes wander around the opulence of the basilica itself. And where my eyes wander, my brain tends to follow.
After scanning my usual favorites (the mosaic depicting the Temptation in the Wilderness, the bug-eyed lion of San Marco in the Prophets Cupola, the relief on the small marble altar outlining Saint Paul's crisis on the road to Damascus), I let my eyes settle on the Pala d'Oro.
One usually has to pay a small fee to go behind the high altar to see this prodigy, but on major feast days it is rotated to face the nave. Of course, when you're seated out there you can't discern much detail, but even from a distance you can tell it's something phenomenal.
As I gazed at it, I let my eyes slide beyond the extravagant assortment of enamel medallions, and the myriad (1,927, actually) precious and semi-precious stones, and its gleaming golden surface, dazzling though it all may be.
What I saw were the hundreds of people involved in making it, and how hard the work was, and how much it cost. I don't mean the bills that were presented to various doges, or what its total price would be today in round dollars, if such a thing could be calculated, which it probably can't.
I mean the money every single person earned who was involved in this project, bearing in mind that what we see is the result of additions, substitutions, and renovations over centuries. If thinking of Accounts Payable seems crass, it probably wasn't so crass to the artists who made it. Art is many things, but toward the top of the list is the word "business." I doubt that any more than .0035 percent of all the art in the world was made for free.
The number of individuals who contributed to this prodigious creation is similarly difficult to calculate, along with their vast amount of skill, effort, and imagination. So let's take just one person.
I'm thinking about a master enamelist. First, there are the years he spends as an apprentice, doing the scut work, making mistakes, throwing things out, learning little tricks, getting yelled at. He learns how to work with wire, with glass, with color, with fire. After I don't know how long, he 's good enough to get the commission to do five saints (let's say).
So he goes home to give his wife the good news, and tells her how much he's going to be paid (and when!). And they stay up late feeling happy and trying to decide how they'll spend the money — finally buy that horse? Pay the butcher? Order their daughter's wedding dress?
Then I thought the same things about the artist who applied the baroque pearls (years, labor, etc.). Then I stepped back one step to the merchants who sold and bought the pearls (years, labor). And the person who brought the pearls from the Persian Gulf to Constantinople. And the person who dived for the pearls. (I stopped short of imagining the oyster making the pearls, but you're free to go ahead.)
Then I thought about the gold-leaf beaters and appliers. (This is no small thought, considering that the Pala d'Oro consists of gold in many forms: repousse', cast, applique', chased, stamped, matted, and filigrees, not to mention granulation and beading.) The gold merchant. His wife and kids. The camel-driver and ship's captain who carried the gold. Their wives and kids. The gold miner. His wife and kids.
So I probably missed an excellent sermon while I was imagining spouses and offspring and extra food and new shoes and sick grandfathers and quack doctors and on and on, through the whole infinitely expanding intricacy of the connections between just about everything.
So whenever I see a few square inches of art (frescoes, mosaics, marble statues, kilim carpets, whatever), I sometimes unleash my mind and let it roll around like a Weazel Ball among centuries and countries and people.
I came back to my immediate surroundings when they passed to take up the collection. Speaking of money.
Erla, do I see a book forming in your mind? "The Supply Chain of Basilica San Marco"… think what fun that would be to research!

I love school concerts. Seriously, I can't get enough of them. I love seeing kids holding instruments that are slightly too big for their bodies. I love watching the shy kids sing their hearts out. I love the familiarity of it all.
I played clarinet for a few years and at the time I really didn't like it. My father encouraged me to choose the clarinet because he liked Benny Goodman and 'wouldn't it be nice to play a woodwind instrument.' So I did. And like most people who took an instrument and then gave it up, I regret not sticking with it.
However, that's not the end of my love affair with music. I sang in chorus in elementary school, like everyone else did. But in middle and high school it was an option; an elective that not many people chose. I am so glad I chose it.
Participating in the chorus was the absolute highlight of my high school career. My teacher, Mr. Messina, was full of passion and enthusiasm for his craft. He introduced us to all kinds of music: swing, jazz, classical, country, Americana, popular, spiritual, folk.
He taught us how to read music and about the subtle nuances of harmony. And he taught us how to work together – by listening and responding – to create a beautiful sound.
Mr. Messina is enjoying a well-deserved retirement now. By far, he is one of my most favorite teachers. I've been going through a ton of old photos recently for a special family project and I came across so many hilarious photos of the awesome friends I made in chorus. The trips to Disney and DC, the musicals, the spring and winter concerts and the performances at Memorial Hall in Melrose for Memorial Day. Such a special time in my life.
My daughter just finished her fourth grade year and she's been lucky to have great music teachers, too. But the best part is, she really appreciates them.
I know as she gets older she'll have lots of choices when it comes to extracurricular activities. And while I don't want to push her in one direction or another, I *really* hope she chooses to have music in her middle and high school years.
She won't regret it.

Jonathan Drouin didn't want to sit out any longer.
The 20-year-old forward returned to Syracuse Crunch practice on Tuesday, nearly two months after leaving the team on a game day in Toronto. After Drouin's trade demand went public in January, he was assigned to the Crunch and played seven games before heading home to await a move.
Not dealt by the NHL trade deadline, Drouin just wants to get back to playing hockey.
"Obviously, I'm a hockey player and I wanted to play hockey," Drouin said. "Sitting at home is not what I wanted to do. I wanted to play hockey with the Crunch. We'll deal with that stuff when the summer comes."

One of these days I'll round up a master list of all the great horror titles available (legally) on the Internet, but until then you'll have to suffice with me having just crossed paths with SESSION 9 on Hulu. I don't think I need to tell anyone how great the movie is, you're all at this site for a reason, but if you happen to be one of the few who still hasn't seen Brad Anderson's beloved thriller, now's your shot. It's free and only a few clicks away.

In-Car Entertainment [ICE] System Market - Global Forecast (2011-2016) .
Added: (Tue Jan 21 2014)
Pressbox (Press Release) -
In-Car Entertainment (Infotainment) [ICE] System Market - Global Forecast & Analysis by OEM & Aftermarket (2011 – 2016) by OEM & Aftermarket, by Products (Audio, Display, GPS, Software Platform, Service, Accessories), by Applications (Entertainment, Location Based Services, Communication)
Conventional car entertainment was redefined by Entertainment (ICE) & Information system by having offered digital and internet radio. These radios offered unlimited music to customer from the external world. Before Entertainment & Information system entered the market, navigation system like Global Positioning System (GPS) was available to customer as an independent product. By integrating navigation system in ICE solution, the system, as a whole, has become all the more valuable. In-Car Entertainment & Information initially being an integral part of luxury cars is now emerging as a differentiable factor for the mid-segment cars. In-Car Entertainment & Information systems offer both entertainment and information services. Such a system replaces multiple products and offers enhanced user experience to the customer.
In Car Entertainment systems have been featured TV shows such as MTV's Pimp My Ride. In Car Entertainment has been become more widely available due to reduced costs of devices such as LCD screen/monitors, and the reducing cost to the consumer of the converging media playable technologies. Single hardware units are capable of playing CD, MP3, WMA, DVD. The term "car audio" is included in the term ICE, but "In Car Entertainment" can refer to video, games or GPS automotive navigation system as well, hence the difference.
The report deals with the current scenario of the ICE market. ICE started from the products like radio. The other products such as multi track sound systems and navigation system were the latest additions to it. Now these products are integrated into one and termed as an ICE solution. It offers all the features like internet connectivity, navigation services, and communication applications like making and receiving calls via smart phone integration. The complete journey includes the various phases like introducing new products and revamping the existing one.
Traditionally, auto products are being sold through OEM and aftermarket. Like the other products, aftermarket plays an important role in sale of Entertainment & Information solutions. However, Entertainment (ICE) & Information products are likely sell more through OEM than aftermarket.
The report contains a detailed outline of the market related to ICE product and its applications. The report also highlights the future products (features likely to introduce in future) in Entertainment (ICE) & Information solution. Geographical segmentation of the ICE market into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World has also been covered.
The ICE market is in the introduction phase and has a limited market size, but is expected to grow at higher rates like 29.9% and 29.3% in 2011 and 2012 respectively. Based on the present economic conditions and the optimistic future conditions, the overall market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.1% from 2011 to 2016.
Some of the prominent players of ICE System are Harman International (U.S.), Pioneer (Japan), JVC-Kenwood (Japan), Deplhi (Japan), Denso (Japan), Alpine (Japan) and Bosch (Germany). Some of navigation system and service providers are TomTom (The Netherlands) and Garmin (U.S.) Some of software (Platform) developers include Intel (U.S.), KPIT (India), Luxoft (Russia), and Nuance (U.S.) Some of ICE service providers are Aha – Harman (U.S.), and Meego (U.S.).
