We recently partnered with a client whose website had undergone a redesign promising a better-looking layout, and ultimately, higher conversions.
The results did not match expectations.
Flightdeck Consulting, which offers online recruitment and coaching services for pilots and flight attendants, went from a consistently well-performing e-commerce site to one losing a significant proportion of sales from its books and courses section.
With reduced sales post-launch, Flightdeck partnered with us to (quickly) identify ways to move conversions rates back to the volume they once knew.
From this project and other similar experiences, here are some key rules of the road we would have given to Flightdeck and any other clients considering a redesign:
1. Get a second opinion
There are different ways to make changes to a site: small changes made over iteration, total overhauls and something in between. Before committing to one (potentially costly) strategy from which you cannot revert back, ask around and see if other experts in your field would recommend a different tack.
Flightdeck engaged an agency who proposed a fairly radical change. With 20/20 hindsight, a third-party opinion may have been worth considering, especially if it were to favour optimisation over total redesign.
2. Don't throw out what's working
For Flightdeck, a great thing about their old site was that it welcomed users to identify themselves first and foremost as either flight attendant or pilot. This feature was gone from the new site, and we believe it may have been a key entry point to the sales funnel.
The philosophy is to first recognise and preserve the revenue drivers already in play.
3. Establish a baseline of revenue drivers and detractors
Review your analytics, commission a third-party review and/or conduct a super-lean round of user testing to identify what customers like best and least about using your site. After that, design with a goal of eliminating the customer's pain points while ensuring your keep the magic formula in tact.
That's step 1 before even picking up the phone to your design agency or team.
Ensure design changes reflect an alignment between your business objectives and what actual customers want and do on your site.
For example, Flightdeck's new design buried the "Shop" within a (long) list of top navigation items. A quick look at analytics shows that customers weren't buying because they were not beelining to the "Shop" section. Also, some of those navigation items simply did not get trafficked by purchasing customers (if at all). With that evidence, we made a recommendation to cut down the number of navigation items to only those critical the customer's purchase journey.
4. Pretty can hurt (the bottom line)
Redesigns often focus on making things look better. But its #1 goal should be conversion, not aethestics.
Upon first glance, the new Flightdeck looked great. Consistent use of font and colours, contemporary look and feel. In reality, the better-looking, more responsive site produced worse results than its predecessor.
Because the old site was 'replaced' without sufficient investigation of other revenue drivers in customer experience, Flightdeck realised a risk in changing too much – or not changing the right things.
5. Test as you go, don't launch with baited breath
Imagine the opposite scenario to the classic 'big reveal' that typically accompanies redesigns.
Suppose your site could change one thing and then test the results—either with A/B testing (running two designs of a page concurrently and comparing results) or by a very lean round of user testing – before changing the next thing… then you'd get even more clarity about what changes to make, and what elements to keep.
That's not practical for all sites, but many companies are moving more in that direction.
Amazon, for example — who remembers the last overhaul of their website? Likely no one because Amazon make incremental changes and test every day throughout the year. For them, optimisation doesn't look like a revolution — it's a series of changes that represent continual improvement.
Iterations of testing followed by design keeps you close to your customer's needs and helps ensure your investments of time and money are well spent.
With the right tools to first run diagnostics and then test design changes iteratively, you'll be able to get rid of pain points without harming the main drivers of conversion.

Early in your working life, retirement may not even be on your radar. But this is actually the perfect time to start thinking about retirement and to set up your first retirement investment and savings accounts. Because you have such a long time horizon, your money will have years and years of growth potential. Small, consistent investments now have the potential to add up to significant savings over time.
Starting early and being consistent are some of the keys to a successful retirement savings strategy. If your company has a 401(k) plan, enroll in it as soon as you are eligible. Many employers offer to match a percentage of the money you put into the account, giving you additional incentive to invest – it's like getting a bonus every month.
As you become more settled in your career and are making more money, life may also be getting a little more complicated. You may be getting married, or starting a family or buying your first house. Don't be tempted to cut back on retirement savings now. Keep your investment course steady, and make sure your contributions are keeping pace with your income. If you get a raise, give your investment savings a raise as well. Automatic payroll deductions should make it easier.
Take the time to learn about investment strategies if that interests you. Your First Midwest Financial Consultant can provide a wealth of information, as well as guidance for establishing, and periodically reevaluating, a well-diversified retirement investment portfolio.
In your 40s and 50s you've likely reached a point of financial stability, maybe even with real financial breathing room. That gives you a lot more freedom now. But you may want to think about how to give yourself real freedom in retirement, and be able to choose the lifestyle you want to live. Will you still want the demands of full-time employment at 65? You might still be enjoying your career. But you might prefer to travel, or do volunteer work, or spend time with grandchildren, or maybe even start a business.
The point is, if you adopt and maintain a solid retirement investment strategy, and get regular financial checkups, the choice will be yours. That's what financial freedom is all about.
The closer you get to retirement, the more every dollar counts. In early middle age you're probably earning more, but also may have college-age kids. Before borrowing from your retirement savings to help with college expenses – and losing interest that may never be regained – look at student loans and other options available for funding higher education. Your children will have many years to pay back the money they'll borrow for college, while the time you have to save for retirement is growing ever shorter.
In your 50s, retirement is starting to feel more real, so you need to focus on what you still need to do to make retirement a reality, pay close attention to how your investments are performing, and fine-tune them for optimal growth and appropriate levels of risk.
After reviewing your situation, you may find that you need to play "catch up" with your retirement savings. Even if you've done little to prepare for retirement, don't be defeated by fretting about what you haven't managed to accomplish. Instead, focus on what you can do from today forward to create a more secure financial future, and start saving now.
Here are some strategies that may help:
In your 60s, it's time to look at how you'll cover basic living expenses in retirement, or better yet, how you'll be able to live the life you WANT to live in retirement.
These could be the best years of your life. And, you'll need to have a plan for how you'll cover your own future medical needs, or maybe first being responsible for the care of your aging parents. (See "
Becoming a Caregiver
.") Now's the time to carefully sort through the details to make sure you've covered all your bases, and make sure you're ready to retire, both psychologically and financially.
Start by making sure your basic living expenses will be easily met.
Plan to make your money last.
Talk to your First Midwest Financial Consultant to make sure you have a plan that allows efficient access to your savings so you can do the things you want to do.
If you find that you don't have the assets you need to retire, there are some actions you can take near or even after retirement to extend the life of your assets:
Talk to your First Midwest Financial Consultant for help with all your retirement planning needs, no matter where you are in the retirement continuum. We can help you craft a strategy that will help you retire your way.

Some estimates suggest that a couple without employer-sponsored retiree healthcare coverage will need more than $150,000 to cover their out-of-pocket healthcare costs in retirement. And with employer-sponsored healthcare coverage for retirees rapidly becoming a thing of the past, that figure would apply to most Americans who are currently in the workforce.
Expenses taken into account by this number include Medicare Part B and Part D premiums, Medicare copayments, co-insurance, deductibles, excluded medical costs, and out-of-pocket prescription drug costs. It does not include over-the-counter medications and most dental services. And it certainly doesn't account for the greatest potential expense retirees face, the cost of long-term care.
Clearly this needs to be taken into consideration when determining just how much money you'll need in retirement. There are solutions that can help you be prepared for the high cost of healthcare, including health savings accounts, and long-term care insurance.
Talk to your First Midwest Financial Consultant about incorporating solutions for covering healthcare costs into your overall retirement savings and investment strategy.

SeaWorld turns 50 amid pressure to end killer-whale shows
SeaWorld is continuing to face public pressure to end the captivity of its killer whales at the marine-animal-themed parks.
Calls for change — including a bill in California — have been mounting months after the release of a documentary called Blackfish. The 2013 film documents the death of SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010 by Tilikum, a 12,000-pound killer whale previously linked to two other deaths.
Blackfish raises the question of whether these highly intelligent and social animals should be in captivity. The film asserts orcas in captivity die young and act out aggressively toward each other and toward humans.
SeaWorld, which turned 50 on Friday, has called the film "propaganda" and disputes the claim that its facilities are harmful to orcas and their trainers.
MORE:Fast facts about SeaWorld
"That is completely unsupported by more than five decades of experience and literally millions of separate safe interactions between humans and killer whales," Jim Atchison, president and CEO of SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment, said in an e-mail to USA TODAY Network. Atchison added that the parks are subject to federal and state animal welfare laws.
Since the documentary first aired on CNN in October 2013, Blackfish has created what some have called the "Blackfish Effect." Big-name musical acts, including Willie Nelson and Heart, canceled their shows at SeaWorld. Animal rights groups protested SeaWorld floats in parades and online petitions sprang up on Change.org.
SeaWorld has had "a long run and they've done some good things," said Blackfish director Gabriela Cowperthwaite in an e-mail to USA TODAY Network. "But now everyone knows the truth and it's time for them to evolve."
SeaWorld bought its first killer whale, Shamu, in 1965. Little was known about orcas at that time, but researchers started studying them in the wild in the 1970s, said Naomi Rose, marine mammal scientist at the Animal Welfare Institute.
Researchers now have a better understanding of orcas' social interactions, such as their tight family bonds and the differences in cultures and dialects of each family, Rose said.
In the wild, orcas have the same maximum life expectancy as humans, but at SeaWorld, most orcas that have died didn't live past their teens, Rose said.
Rose, who has studied orcas for more than two decades, said they should not be held in captivity at all, unless one is stranded and needs rehabilitation.
"If SeaWorld had evolved along with the science, they would not be in this position today," Rose said.
The negative attention has not seemed to affect SeaWorld's bottom line. The company made a record $1.46 billion in revenue in 2013, driven by record attendance in the fourth quarter, the period of the "Blackfish Effect." Atchison said SeaWorld has made no changes as a result of the film.
But SeaWorld could be forced to change under a proposed law. This month, California Assemblyman Richard Bloom introduced a bill that would ban the captivity of orcas for performance-based entertainment and captive breeding.
Bloom said the display of orcas has little or no benefit for conservation efforts. "We should focus our efforts on restoring habitat in the wild and protecting our oceans," Bloom said in a statement about the bill.
The legislation would affect only SeaWorld's San Diego location. Most of the 10 orcas at the park would not be able to survive in the wild and would have to be kept in sea pen sanctuaries, Rose said. SeaWorld's two other marine parks are located in Orlando and San Antonio.
Atchison called the bill "an animal rights extremist agenda." He pointed to SeaWorld's research based on its orca population, including studies on artificial insemination, immunology and metabolism.
Bridgette Pirtle, a SeaWorld trainer at the San Antonio park from 2001 to 2011, called Blackfish an "unfair representation" of trainers, relying primarily on less experienced trainers.
Pirtle said SeaWorld has contributed to the public's education of orcas and there's still a need for captive orcas for research purposes. She said she doesn't think Bloom's bill is helpful, but she would like to see SeaWorld invest in larger and more stimulating facilities for its killer whales.
"SeaWorld is making money. Shamu is an icon," Pirtle said. "Being able to turn more of that money from the animals and give it back to the animals, that's the biggest opportunity SeaWorld has.'

Smart Space is Coming… and coming fast!
Shopping aisles will suggest a cheese with that wine and even a possible date in aisle #3 who buys the same olive oil, pasta and ice cream we buy. Of course that person in aisle #3 may also now know who and where you are. The reactions to such data by both parties might be very entertaining to watch from the video monitors above.
This technology is here already. Have you seen the "Sonar" iPhone app? http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/sonar-mobile-profile-for-local/id422549956?mt=8
Parking Spaces will know we have arrived – http://www.libelium.com/smart_parking Can there be any doubt where that is heading?
For starters our smart airport parking space might speak to us. When it does it might say:
"Hello Mr. Hennessy. Your departing flight is currently on-time. Current security line wait time in International Terminal 3 is 45 minutes."
Of course we will be able to ask "Smart-Spaces" questions, such as…
Q: "When will the parking shuttle arrive?
A: "5 minutes Mr. Hennessy. "
And "smart spaces" will obviously promote and sell to me. They will even appear empathetic, predicting our needs!
Airport hallway "Smart-Walls" will speak to us. To me these interconnected and contiguous "sensing" panels might suggest…
"You have time for a beverage Mr. Hennessy. Would you care for your Guinness at the bar coming up up on your left in 100 yards? I can order it for you now if you'd like."
Did I mention that the audio tech exists that can pin-point the projection of sound, i.e. to you and only you as you walk down a hallway :-)? Perfect huh.
Kiosks everywhere will know us… the level of intimacy we will most likely control, but they'll still know something about us if we are carrying a Smartphone and our devices are switched on.
And we have all noticed the appearance of DON (Ex: Clear Channel Outdoor's – Digital Outdoor Network) where we see outdoor space displays or "faces" such as highway bulletin boards, walkway panels, airports, street "furniture" such as transit enclosures – all migrating to real-time digital and I have NO DOUBT will become individually, or group, personal-data interactive: http://www.clearchanneloutdoor.com/products/digital/don/#creative
This is real-time interaction with a physical surface w/geo-location features all tied directly to your "person" via your smart phone…
(Think about it. I do. All the time. And it's a love/hate thing for me.)
… and you can win an ice cream cone!
Incredible mass consumer social-psychological appeal, and great promotional platform and channel.
So, you might ask your "Self", where's the risk?
I speak to these issues and other related matters throughout the Ecology-of-Mind blog; and propose direct social product and application solutions here: http://letoonz.wordpress.com; and to solutions on a large-systems business scale here: http://getthevision.wordpress.com

This means the Amazon's latest tablet has all the same ports and buttons in the same places as the 7-inch model.
See also: Amazon Kindle Fire vs Kindle Fire HD comparison review.
It's clearly designed to be used landscape rather than portrait, although the orientation sensor work out which way you're holding the Fire HD 8.9 and rotates the image accordingly.
A webcam sits centrally above the screen – like a laptop's – and the speakers are on the left and right on the rear. Depending on how you hold it, your hands either reflect the sound, or muffle it.
On the bottom edge are micro-USB and micro-HDMI ports - it's good that Amazon uses standard connectors rather than a proprietary dock.
The buttons on the right-hand side sit flush with the body, and are hard to locate without looking.
Build quality is impressive, but it weighs almost as much as an iPad 2. With Amazon's case attached, the Fire HD 8.9 weighs almost 800 grams.
One of the highlights is the excellent full HD screen. The 1920x1080 resolution makes everything nice and sharp.
For the price, it's a superb screen. Viewing angles are wide, colours are deep and contrast is good. HD video looks wonderful, as do ebooks, which are one of the main reasons to buy a Kindle, of course.
The tablet runs the same software as Amazon's other Kindle Fires. It's slick and very easy to use but although based on Android it's pretty locked down and you can't access to the Google Play store.
Instead Amazon wants you to buy apps, games, magazines, videos and ebooks from its own store.
That's understandable but it's certainly something to bear in mind. You can install third-party apps - If you know what you're doing - so it's possible to run Android apps that aren't available in Amazon's app store.
Amazon uses Lovefilm Instant for streaming movies and TV shows. You can't download them for offline viewing, so you'll need an internet connection. If you'd prefer, you can install the free Netflix app from Amazon's App Store.
Reading ebooks is a pleasure on the big screen, but if you're moving from a traditional Kindle, you'll definitely notice the extra weight.
There are two models of the Fire HD 8.9, one with 16 gig of storage, and one with 32. Choose wisely as you can't add more since there's no memory card slot. With each model you can choose whether to spend an extra £10 when purchasing to avoid the adverts on the lock screen. There's no charger in the box, so you should budget for one as it will take 14 hours to charge from a PC's USB port.
In terms of performance, the Fire HD 8.9 is fairly zippy, but not as quick as the fastest Android tablets. In our benchmarks, it was on a par with Google's Nexus 7.
Although the browser loads web pages quickly enough, there's a delay when loading content as you scroll up and down a web page.
Another annoyance is the back button in the status bar which sometimes sits to the right of the keyboard. You instinctively tap it to delete something, instead of using the Delete key on the keyboard itself.
Kindle Fire HD 8.9" verdict
The Kindle Fire HD 8.9 is a good-value tablet for those who are happy to be locked into Amazon's system. For a lot of people, that won't matter at all as it's a good system, particularly if you want to use the tablet mainly as an e-reader.
The hardware is hard to fault – excepting the hard-to-find buttons – and the screen is great for the money.
The app store is lacking compared to Google Play, but undemanding users will find almost everything they need.

JICO Stylus
Jico stylus of Japan has long offered high quality replacement styluses for phonographic cartridges. In contrast to most aftermarket stylus manufacturers, Jico produces replacement styluses that not only match the quality of the original stylus, they often surpass them. I have been using their SAS [Super Analog Stylus] replacement stylus for a Shure M97xE cartridge, and the Jico stylus transformed the cartridge from a rather ordinary (even boring) sounding cart to something that competes sonically with much higher priced cartridges (sadly, I would know as I've owned some of them).
Jico has just completed a redesign of their website, and are asking their customers to pass along the word. I would be happy to do so even if they were not offering a free t-shirt as a reward. If you have a moving magnet (or moving iron) cartridge with a user replaceable stylus, I highly recommend checking Jico's website to see if they offer a replacement for your cart.
Record fanatics like me owe the dedicated craftsmen at companies like Jico a huge debt of thanks. Without their continued dedication it would no longer be possible to enjoy high quality vinyl playback.

Cambridge, Mass. – UMBC sophomore midfielder Pat Young (Ewing, N.J./Christchurch (Va.)) School) was named America East Conference Co-Player of the Week for games ending April 12.
Young shares the award with Albany senior attackman Miles Thompson, who scored five goals in a victory over Stony Brook.
The 2013 America East Rookie of the Year and First Team midfielder scored four of his career-high five goals in the fourth quarter as UMBC staved off a Hartford rally and defeated the Hawks, 16-11, in a crucial league contest.
Young, who is second on the squad with 22 goals on the season, has scored at least one point in 22 consecutive games and 25 of his 26 career appearances. He has 11 goals in three America East contests this season, 25 scores in eight career league contests and 12 goals in three career games versus the Hawks.
Young is UMBC's first recipient of the season. Freshmen attackman Max Maxwell (Hamburg, N.Y./Hamburg) and red-shirt freshman netminder Connor Gordon (Bourne, Mass./Tabor Acad.) have earned Rookie of the Week awards in 2014.
UMBC (6-5, 2-1 America East) takes on defending league champion Albany (6-5, 3-0 AE) on the Retrievers' Senior Day onSaturday, April 19. The opening face-off is set for 3:30 p.m.

Enjoying Beer and Mangan over a winter's lunch
I'm old enough to remember the days when the Sydney and Melbourne Hiltons first opened in their current guise and ran a clever series of black-and-white half-page ads that tongue-in-cheek mocked the other — and particularly the cultural status of the other's city of origin.
I don't know so much about Melbourne but in Sydney the arrival of this quite brash, yet eminently classy newcomer served to totally change the landscape of the city's accommodation scene.
Sydney suddenly had digs that could comfortably be rated alongside New York's, London's and Paris's best. You could almost hear the Peter Stuyvesant cigarette commercial playing in the background.
But that was more than 40 years ago, and these days the Hilton is very much an established part of the Sydney landscape. Staying at the Hilton is just what the well-heeled do, isn't it?
So it's quite right that the Sydney Hilton's kitchens should be in the hands of Luke Mangan, one of the country's best-known chefs, and that its showpiece should be his Glass Brasserie, complete with a splendid view of the historic Queens Victoria Building, even if that view doesn't stretch down to the city's fabled harbour itself.
Quite frankly, Mangan is a culinary genius who has proved his worth in the kitchens of places such as Salt, Luke's Kitchen and Chicken Confidential, and a bevy of cookbooks.
It somehow seems appropriate that Luke has teamed this winter with the Barossa Valley's Maggie Beer, undoubtedly the country's best-known cook — she won't call herself a chef because that implies a level of formal training that she's never had — to produce a special lunch-time menu in Glass Brasserie.
The duo are serving up a collaborative winter menu that features a series of delicious seasonal dishes packed full of fresh, quality produce from around New South Wales and Maggie's home state, South Australia.
Maggie's signature dishes including her mustard-pear-stuffed chicken breast with crushed parsnip and jus, made with pears from her orchard in the Barossa, seville-marmalade-glazed pork belly with verjuice, potato purée and cavolo nero, and her cumin-roasted sweet potato and black barley with tahini and Persian feta.
Those with a sweet-tooth can upgrade their experience to include Maggie's signature verjuice custard with bergamot-braised raisin clusters, from the dessert menu.
On a recent visit, I tried Maggie's dishes of pork belly and vanilla custard, plus a small serving of Luke's mushroom fettuccine, all washed down with a bottle of his signature Yarra Valley pinot noir.
The simple verdict. All delicious thanks, in a gorgeous venue and with an impeccable standard of service.
And if you're thinking of baulking at the $29 lunch charge, then think of where you are and about who's been responsible, ultimately, for preparing the food.
You're having lunch in one of central Sydney's few hatted restaurants, and your meal has been designed by two of the country's leading culinary advocates.
The menu is on offer available Monday to Friday from 12-2pm until August 31. Visit www.hiltonsydney.com.au

"It's important to understand what the writer wants to say," said Igor Mescoi, a Moldovan-born, Queens-based music producer who owns New Sound Studio in Maspeth. "I have to feel his position in the song, because the arrangement is the base of the song. If you don't find the right style and feeling, the song won't sound right."
A wrong pairing could ruin the song: picture the lyrics of "I Love Rock N' Roll" set to the polka. "I have to feel what he has to say," Mescoi said.
So far he seems to have the right feeling. Mescoi recently finished producing an album for Romanian superstar Gheorghe Gheorghiu. It marks the fourth time the two have worked together on one of Gheorghiu's albums, and the first time they have reached platinum status in Romania.
Gheorghiu came over to America to stay with Mescoi for the four-month-long process. "It was very intensive," said Mescoi. "We were in the studio almost every day."
Mescoi worked so hard that he even took his work out of the studio and into his dreams. "One time I woke up at four in the morning with a dream for a song," he said. "When I woke up, I remembered all the song in my head.
"I went to my studio to record before I could forget it," he said. The song – "Te Voi Iubi Mereu," which means "I Will Love You Forever" – is track fourteen on Gheorghiu's Best Of album.
"Gheorghe was here, asleep, and he saw me in the morning, and said, 'You're a crazy man. Why aren't you asleep?'" Mescoi laughed. "Then he heard the song and asked if he could have it for his album."
During intense projects like this, Mescoi focuses mainly on one or two artists. "Most times I can be with several artists at once," he said. "But when artists from Moldova or Romania come over and they have four songs they need in two weeks, I sometimes have to work only with them."
Now that the project with Gheorghiu is wrapped up, and he's finished another album for the artist Moshe Nunez, he's free to work with a larger number of artists at a time.
"I do everything from the beginning to the end of the song," he said, standing in his studio. "We can do all the instruments in here – even the violins and the trumpets in here. Then we combine the electronic music with live instruments."
Once he finds the feeling of the song, he's ready to dive in head first and churn out yet another hit.

Ojeda Goes To Washington | Logan Banner
When he got the call from Sen. Joe Manchin, Richard Ojeda didn't think he could make arrangements or get permission to go, but when he spoke to his commander, he was told to get ready and go.
There are only 450 people invited to attend the event. Ojeda said he would not have been one of those few if it had not been for LEAD. He believes Sen. Manchin had been watching what LEAD has been doing since last April.
"If it hadn't been for the nine people who helped to start the program from nothing and do positive things, I wouldn't have gotten the opportunity. If I could have gotten 50 more tickets, I would have brought everyone with me. It was a wonderful experience, an honor to even be thought of to do something like that."
Ojeda says watching the gallery fill with the country's leaders is "awesome." He says he had a great seat, with a clear line of sight to the president.
Commander Chris Gibson, who is a highly-decorated veteran currently serving as a congressman for the state of New York, served with Ojeda at one time and he was excited to reunite with the commander he described as "a warrior, who earned a Silver Star, Purple Heart and was an awesome commander."
Ojeda was in awe of Sen. Manchin, saying, "It takes a machine to do what he does. He goes from meeting to meeting to meeting and in between, he is out shaking hands and taking pictures. He is very nice; you can tell he is very nice person. He reminds me of a full-bird Colonel in combat." He went on to say Manchin's staff took good care of him and also works non-stop.
While he was in Washington, Ojeda toured the White House and says he got to go places and do things while he was there that ordinary people aren't allowed to do.
He said it was the experience of a lifetime and he came back to Logan County ready to work.
"We are going to make Logan County the model because we can. Logan County has the potential. We've got the most beautiful mountains in the world here. I've been to 35 countries and the mountains here are the most beautiful. We have the Hatfield McCoy feud, the Battle of Blair Mountain, the Hatfield McCoy Trails and history. We have so much history in Logan County, people could come here over and over."

unborn 2012 - 2013
oil on paper from a series of 300: unborn.
Series: Unborn
Unborn, intrinsic, original, uncreated. Unborn is not something to be created; it is already complete and perfect. The mind just as it is, intrinsic, original, uncreated, imperishable.
In response to circumstances thoughts and feelings come and go. While these are neither good nor bad in themselves, we're slaves to our responses. Failing to see them as merely passing reflections due to all kinds of habitual pattens, multiple causes and conditions, and preconceived ideas about reality we obstruct and obscure the free flow of mind not allowing thoughts and physical sensations to arise and cease naturally. We need only to stop struggling entirely, allowing the rhythm of mind to flow freely like a river. Unborn is not something to attain, to be created or to try to be or become. Unborn is already present, perfect and complete. It is our basic nature. If one is truly natural and innocently spontaneous, the unborn will appear.
Mind does not come from somewhere or go somewhere else. It has no form or color nor abide in any definite place. It is completely intangible, cannot be grasped or isolated. Mind depends on only two things - the object that is perceived and the senses through which it is perceived which is an experience of unborn once the clarity and vastness of the unborn nature is recognized.

With the introduction of GM's redesigned full-sized pickups and the last year before the 2015 Ford F-150 drops, 2013 was significant for truck sales. Here's a look at how the Big Three did in December and 2013.
General Motors
GM had a tough December overall, and sales of their new trucks weren't exactly door-busting. In a media conference call today, GM executives responded to questions about low truck sales by stating they're "still in the midst of rolling out various configurations" of their full-sized pickups.
Explaining that Crew Cabs are rolled out first, followed by double cabs, followed by singles, GM justified their numbers as "reflective of their release strategy" elaborating by saying commercial outfits make up a strong portion of GM truck sales, and they primarily buy single cabs. An increased availability in 2014 may show improvement on the Silverado and Sierra ledgers.
Large pickup sales to small business customers were up 38% for the month, and 57% for the year. It was also stated that commercial fleet and government sales were up in December for the second month in a row.
The discontinuation of the Avalanche was also blamed for this year's low sales numbers.
GM claims they own 36% of the over-$40k light duty truck segment, with the Sierra holding the "highest average transaction prices of any full-sized pickup in the industry." Meanwhile, GM is spending about $1,000 less on consumer incentives for pickups this year than last.
Looking forward, the GM team seemed optimistic about the fact that 95% of light duty GM truck sales to consumers in December were MY 2014s models, claiming that 90% of a "major domestic competitor" sales were MY 2013s. Naturally, they're hoping this is indicative of excitement over their future products.
For 2014, GM is hoping the launches of their redesigned large SUVs, Heavy Duty pickups and mid-sized pickups will get more consumers on board. High-speed mobile internet as part of OnStar was also offhandedly mentioned as a potential near-future offering.
As a side note, GM's small SUVs faired well in 2013. The Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Acadia, and GMC Terrain had their best years ever with sales on the Acadia up 53% in December.
With 763,402 sales in 2013, the F-Series had its best year since 2006. The blue oval claimed "best selling pickup in America" title for the 37th straight year, and the best selling vehicle in the country for the 32nd year. 688,810 were sold through November, and 74,592 were sold in December.
With the reveal of the 2015 F-150 redesign just weeks away and a predicted shortage of 2014 models resulting from factory conversions, the industry will be closely watching Ford's F-Series performance in the first quarter of this year.
Ford sold 1,466 heavy trucks in December, an 11.1% increase from December 2012. 8,682 Ford heavy trucks were sold in 2013.
E-Series van sales were up 3.8% to 12,460 units this December from last, for a 2013 total of 125,356 sales.
Meanwhile, the Escape set an annual sales record with 295,993 vehicles. Escape sales are up 22 percent for the month at 24,462.
Ram was the Chrysler Group's best performing brand in 2013, with a 22% sales increase from the previous year. That includes the Pickups, Cargo Vans and ProMaster Vans. For December, Ram sales were up 17% to 36,028 vehicles.
Pickups had an 11% increase to 33,405 vehicles, making this December its best since 2004. It also marks 44th consecutive month Ram Pickups have show "year-over-year" sales gains.
Broken down further, Heavy Duty pickup sales were up 16% and while Light Duty sales were up 7%.
The ProMaster Van introduced in October skyrocketed, posting a 126% sales increase in December over November.

Odorizzi (7-8) gave up one run on three hits while striking out five for the Rays, who are 10-1 since July 12. The right-hander has won three straight starts and is 5-1 in his past six decisions.
James Loney hit a two-run single in the sixth for Tampa Bay.
Mark Reynolds hit a solo homer for the Brewers, who saw starter Kyle Lohse (11-5) give up two runs on four hits over six innings. Lohse, who had won back-to-back starts, struck out six and walked three.

Push Gmail for iPhone and Windows Mobile
Tuesday, September 22, 2009 8:48 AM
Posted by Marcus Foster, Product Manager, Google Mobile
Those of you who live in your Gmail inboxes usually want to know what's happening with your email more instantly than standard fetch mail on your phone allows. Sure, using Gmail in your mobile browser gives you all the benefits of conversation threading and starring, but you still have to refresh every time you want to check for new mail.
When we launched Google Sync for Contacts and Google Calendar earlier this year, an over-the-air, always-on connection to sync mail was noticeably absent. We heard your requests loud and clear, and starting today you can use Google Sync to get your Gmail messages pushed directly to your iPhone, iPod Touch, or Windows Mobile device.
You can set up push Gmail by itself or choose to sync your Contacts and/or Calendar as well. If you're using an iPhone, make sure you're running iPhone OS version 3.0 or above (on your device, click Settings > General > About and scroll down until you see Version). If your software is out of date, follow Apple's upgrade instructions. Then, visit m.google.com/sync from your computer for set up instructions. If you're already using Google Sync, you can just enable push mail.
Once you're set up, new messages are normally pushed to your phone within seconds. While this type of speed is pretty awesome, push connections tend to use more power than fetching at intervals, so don't be surprised if your battery life isn't quite what it used to be. We've done a lot of work to optimize power usage, but if you prefer to save battery life, you can always turn off push in your phone's settings and fetch mail every 30 or 60 minutes instead.

Many of us spend more time with our smartphones than we do with other people. The average American checks his or her phone 46 times per day, according to research from Deloitte.
Smartphones are also quite an investment, usually costing several hundred dollars. So when shopping for a new device, it's important to make the right choice. Which smartphone is right for you? Here's a look at our favorite models on the market right now.
Read also: The best cell phone plans
Note: All prices refer to the full cost of the phone without carrier subsidies, payment plans or discounts. This roundup only includes phones that are currently available for purchase. Prices may vary by carrier.
Apple iPhone 7/iPhone 7 Plus
For many people, Apple's iPhone embodies the best mix of design, usability, and processing power. Apple's most recent flagship smartphones are no different: both the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus models feature improved cameras, speedy performance, and long battery life. (Read TIME's full review here.)
What makes the 7 Plus particularly notable is its dual-lens camera, which brings two primary benefits to iPhone photographers. First, it enables the camera to add a depth effect to images, similar to an effect known as "bokeh" often used in portrait photography to isolate subjects from their background. Second, it brings zooming capabilities that make the iPhone 7 Plus a much better choice for preserving detail from afar than its rivals.
The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are also the first Apple smartphones that are officially water-resistant — they can withstand being submerged in up to one meter of water for 30 minutes.
Otherwise, little has changed compared to the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, save for one noteworthy design tweak. Apple has removed the headphone jack from both phones, but includes an adapter for attaching legacy headphones and a pair of earbuds that plug into the phone's Lightning charging port.
All told, the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus are great upgrades for iPhone fans using older models, like the 6 and previous. Those with the iPhone 6s, however, are probably fine waiting til the next big upgrade.

Samsung Galaxy S8
Samsung has been experimenting with curved screens for years, but the newly released Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ feel like the best implementation of that technology yet.
The subtly contoured display combined with the nearly non-existent borders framing the screen give the phone such a sleek and fresh look that it almost makes the iPhone seem archaic. The S8's software is also much simpler and easier to use than that of Samsung's previous phones, providing a smoother overall experience on par with that of the Google Pixel or the iPhone. Flashy new features like facial recognition and Samsung's Bixby virtual assistant didn't work as well as advertised during my review period, but the basics are strong enough to make the S8 one of our top picks.
Buy now: $720+ for Galaxy S8, $835+ for Galaxy S8+, Best Buy
Google Pixel/Pixel XL
The Google Pixel, with its sharp camera, good looks, and easy-to-use software, make it a tempting choice for both Android lovers and iPhone users considering a switch. (Read TIME's full review here.)
Google is betting that its virtual helper, named the Google Assistant, will set its phone apart from other competing Android devices. The Assistant can handle the same tasks as Google Now, but with enhanced abilities. For now, the Assistant is best at answering questions (i.e. What's the best way to cook salmon? How do I get a juice stain out of the carpet?), since it pulls snippets of information from Google's knowledge graph rather than just surfacing web search results. Developers are also building a selection of third-party apps and services that work with Assistant, so you can ask it to call an Uber or reserve a table at a restaurant.
One drawback: the Pixel isn't water resistant, a drawback compared to Apple and Samsung's latest phones.
Buy now: $649 for Pixel, Best Buy | $769 for Pixel XL, Google
Huawei Mate 9
With the Mate 9, it's clear Huawei focused on core features like battery life, camera quality, and performance. The handset also includes the same Alexa virtual assistant that powers Amazon's Echo devices. (Read TIME's full review.)
But what really sets the Mate 9 apart is its long battery life — it has a larger battery than rivals like the iPhone 7 Plus and Google Pixel XL. When reviewing the phone, I noticed the battery only depleted by 50% after I had been using it for about 13 hours. Huawei also says its smartphone intelligently tracks usage habits over time, and allocates processing resources accordingly — meaning the phone shouldn't slow down after you've had it for a while.
The Mate 9 also has a high-quality camera that's on par with that of its aforementioned competitors. Like the iPhone 7 Plus, Huawei's device includes a dual lens camera for capturing images with a "bokeh" effect, which blurs backgrounds to make subjects appear crisp and sharp. The Mate 9's camera, which was co-engineered with Leica, offers a range of controls sure to please photography nuts, like the ability to adjust ISO and other settings. Photographers can even tweak how blurry the background looks when shooting photos with the bokeh effect, which is a useful option not offered on the iPhone 7 Plus.
The Mate 9 is an ideal choice for smartphone shoppers seeking a good-looking, big-screened Android phone that won't run out of juice easily, although there's little else that differentiates it from competing smartphones. It also includes lots of annoying apps right out of the box.
Buy now: Huawei Mate 9, $600, Amazon
OnePlus 3T
Upstart Chinese smartphone company OnePlus calls its phones "flagship killers," mainly because it prices its smartphones aggressively compared to more well-known competitors like Apple, Samsung, and LG.
The company's most recent smartphone, the OnePlus 3T, delivers on that promise more so than ever before. It offers the same slim and polished design as the OnePlus 3, but with a slightly faster processor, larger battery, and sharper front camera. (Read TIME's full review of the OnePlus 3.)
With its simple software and long battery life, the OnePlus 3T is an excellent yet affordable choice for most Android fans. Still, there are two minor drawbacks that should be considered: it doesn't support expandable storage like some alternatives, and its camera doesn't take the best photos in low light.
Buy now: OnePlus 3T, $439, OnePlus
iPhone SE
The iPhone SE is designed for Apple fans who want something smaller and cheaper than what Apple usually has to offer. It looks almost identical to the iPhone 5s, but with iPhone 6s-level guts on the inside. It has the same processor and camera as Apple's previous generation flagship, packed into a compact 4-inch device. The SE is also about $250 cheaper than the iPhone 7 and $150 less than the iPhone 6s, making it a bargain compared to Apple's other options. (Read TIME's full review here.)
Buy now: iPhone SE, $399, Apple
Moto Z
The slick Moto Z is a worthy option for those looking for a thin, polished Android phone. The device comes in three variants: the Verizon-only Moto Z Droid and Moto Z Droid Force, and the unlocked Moto Z.
At 5.19 millimeters thin, The Moto Z Droid is slimmer than most flagship phones, including the iPhone 7. Its camera is okay — casual users probably won't complain about the Moto Z's 13-megapixel shooter, but I've found that Samsung and Apple phones produce bolder colors. The more expensive Moto Z Force Droid includes a higher-resolution 21-megapixel camera, although I didn't notice much of a difference during my testing. (Read TIME's full review here.)
The Force model brings other advantages, including a screen that Motorola says is shatter-resistant and a larger battery. Those upgrades, however, come at the cost of a thicker design. The unlocked Moto Z is nearly identical to the slimmer Moto Z Droid, save for two key differences: the Verizon exclusive model has a slightly faster processor and the unlocked version only comes in a 64GB variant. The Droid model is available in both 32GB and 64GB versions.
All three Moto Z phones come with a special feature that Motorola hopes will make it easier to customize the devices: a magnetic port on their backside that makes it possible to snap on accessories called Moto Mods. Current Moto Mods include a $299.99 projector attachment made by Motorola, a $79.99 JBL speaker, and a $299.99 Hasselblad camera lens that adds a 10x optical zoom.
Buy now: $699 for Moto Z Droid | $799 for Moto Z Force Droid, Best Buy
The LG G6 is a solid choice for Android fans who want a bigger screen without a phone that's physically larger. It's not quite as elegant as Samsung's Galaxy S8, but it's about $40 less expensive depending on your carrier. Like Samsung did with the S8, LG has minimized the borders surrounding the G6's screen to enlarge the display without making the device too large to comfortably hold with one hand. (Read TIME's full review of the G6 here.)
Google fans may have another reason to side with LG over Samsung: the Google Assistant. The search giant's virtual helper comes included on the device, meaning you can ask questions, set a timer, send messages, and more through Google by using your voice. In general, I've found the Google Assistant to be better than Apple's Siri at remembering context when asking follow-up questions.
Both the camera and battery life on the LG G6 are satisfactory but not breathtaking. The iPhone 7 and Google Pixel are better at producing sharper photos, although the G6's color quality is on par with those of Google's and Apple's phones. The G6 can power through a full day on a single charge, but didn't last quite as long as the iPhone 7 and Google Pixel, which can both survive for around a day and a half.
Price: Available starting at $650, price varies with wireless carrier
