I'm witnessing some unexpected BB10 Simulator (BB10_0_09.2318) behavior that I would like some help with to either dismiss as harmless or change my code to make my app work proprerly.
I'm coding with the Momentics IDE Native SDK for 2.0 and would like to use the same BAR file for both the Playbook and BB10.
With an older BB10 Dev Alpha Simulator (it resembles the Playbook in appearance), when I go to run the app through the IDE as Simulator-Debug everything works as expected, just the screen size is different. Specifically, the app icon shows up on the simulator, it starts and functions as expected, and when I swipe down to get to my options dialog (api native dialog box), it shows up and I can choose the buttons and have the app do all that I can do on the Playbook.
With the .2318 sim, it starts up just fine and I get the screen and action that I expect, but when I swipe down, nothing happens. The only thing I can do is thumbnail the app and if I wish, close it.
The other odd bit is that when I launch the app from the icon in the simulator, the screen is distorted, as in stretched, from side to side. When I download and launch again from the IDE, it looks fine.
I only have the sim to work with and not the device.
Any ideas what I might be doing wrong, or what I might try?
Win 7
VM Workstation 6.5-7.x
Dev Alpha Simulator BB10_0_09.2318
You must call
in order to use dialogs.
This wasn't the case previously.
I still get distortion if I run the app again in the simulator. Don't know what that's about.
Also, the dialog boxes don't work in the same manner as before. If you have too many buttons, the last ones won't show and any message text in the alert_dialog won't show. This is a real conundrum for me as I used to give instructions for what each of the buttons did in the message text. I suppose it's because the sim is for the phone and things are very tiny, so they only allow so much for real estate.
Got some thinking and rearranging to do.

Some Flexible Parametric Models for Partially Adaptive Estimators of Econometric Models
This paper discusses three families of flexible parametric probability density functions: the skewed generalized t, the exponential generalized beta of the second kind, and the inverse hyperbolic sin distributions. These families allow quite flexible modeling the first four moments of a distribution and could be considered in modeling a wide variety of economic problems. We illustrate their use in a simple regression model with a simulation study that demonstrates that the use of the flexible distributions may result in significant efficiency gains relative to more conventional regression procedures, such as ordinary least squares or least absolute deviations regression, without a suffering from a large efficiency loss when errors are Gaussian.

I am the happiest person I know, mostly because of where I live. Covent Garden is where you get a lot of poor actors - they may have made big money and spent it, but they are still great characters, great fun to talk to. Around here everybody knows me by name. The children in the school know me, as does every wino in the street. I can't think of an actor, opera singer, conductor, composer I haven't met. I know New York, I know Paris, many other countries. In each one there is a centrepoint for characters. London is that point here. And when I say London, I mean Covent Garden. And when I say Covent Garden, I mean the restaurant Sarastro. People sense the atmosphere here. This place makes me very happy.
Happiness has nothing to do with money. I've made and lost fortunes three or four times in my life. I've been penniless, absolutely penniless, four times. I look back and I'm 100% sure that the happiest days of my life were when I had no money, no responsibility, no worries. A rich man can never have happiness.
One thing I've learned is that if you are fortunate to have a tree near your home, early in the morning, make sure you listen to birds - you can tell what kind of day it's going to be. If it's polluted, the birds don't sing. They're communicating but they're not truly singing. If you hear real singing, you know it's going to be a good day. You know you are on your way to happiness.

The Rice Owls football grass practice field, north of Rice Stadium, is currently undergoing renovation that started on Monday. Work crews began by removing sod and topsoil. The goal is to level the practice field, which would provide better and safer footing for the team. The field will be ready in time for practice in August.
"We are leveling the practice field and putting in new sod," commented Jack Garrett, Rice senior associate athletic director. "The field had some undulations in it and it was problematic from a drainage standpoint. This new field will have a nicer appearance with a little bit of a crown. It will be easier to conduct practices and safety issues will be better than they were before."

Two past Hardy Cup winners faced each other in the second semi-final but Australian Evan Walker proved superior to New Zealander Adrian Short in boatspeed and tactics, winning 2-0. However, the Kiwis were not happy with the umpire's interpretation of the racing rules over a 'buoy room' incident that effectively gave them two penalties in race two. Unable to clear the penalties they were declared DNF in the second match.
The Australia versus New Zealand final proved somewhat of an anti-climax, with Will Tilling beating Evan Walker 3-0, winning by 22 seconds in the first match, 20 seconds in the second and by a close 6 seconds in the third and deciding match.
Tiller used superior boatspeed to completely outsail Walker in the first match of the final, and in the second the New Zealand crew's rig setting proved superior in the fresher breeze. Nor did a penalty on the first windward leg help the Australians.
Walker tried his best tactical manoeuvres in the third match but was still outsailed by Tiller, going down 3-0.
'We sailed a lot better as the regatta progressed and everything fell into place for us,' Tiller said after today's final. 'It was our first win in six months, so we are delighted with the result and hopefully we can maintain that form in Wellington and then in Los Angeles.'
Harry Thurston was equally excited by their victor, joining Tiller in praising the organisation and running of the regatta by the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron. 'This is my third Hardy Cup and we won two years ago when I was sailing with Adrian Short,' he said.
'We enjoyed sailing the Elliott 6's but picking the wind shifts was the hardest thing today,' Thurston added. Bowman Shaun Mason agreed. 'We had a lot of gybing and tacking throughout the regatta, especially today, but our team work got better as the regatta continued,' Mason said.
In the petit final to decide third and fourth placings overall, Adrian Short added to New Zealand's good day by defeating Jordan Reece 2-0.

Jim, I've checked out that thread and it sounds like fun. Hmmmm.....should I? I have a lot of kits that would fit in that category. There were so many aircraft in WW2 that would have made great racers after the war.

Now I just build them out of the box and enjoy the relaxation.
Occasionally, a kit will come along that I will want to spend a little more time on.

Tahir Academy is the home of Atfal and Nasirat. It's a Sunday school for children between the ages of 5 and 15. We want Ahmadi children to be role models, not followers, among their peers. This is possible once children are capable to defend their faith with argument and logic.
Here are its key areas of focus:
- Purpose of creation of life and the tools required to achieve this purpose.
- Understand the rights of Almighty God and the rights of human beings.
- Understand purpose of religion and why there are so many religions in the world. Focus on Islamic history and revival of Islam through Promised Messiah (as)
- How to live a balanced life as law abiding citizens of the country and the world at large.
If you have any questions, read the answers to our frequently asked questions here (PDF). Not answered there? Ask on our forums. You can find out more about Tahir Academy from the Jama'ats where the education model has been implemented, including Los Angeles, Baltimore and New York. We've compiled some of the resources they've used here, and you can find their responses to our survey here.

Help ?
Hi, I have this equation I found in a paper. I used copy as Notebook expression and made test to see how it pasted back in Mathematica so it should give you the same result.

Any suggestion on how to solve it ? I don't know if this help but this equation is describing the derivative price movement. So I presume C => Call, S => Stock, Sigma => Volatility etc. If you need more information I'd be please to answer as best I can. Thanks, Yves Gauvreau

Who is the bigger alpha male -- Kobe or Dwight?
Kobe Bryant played with one future Hall of Fame center and now he is playing with another. But don't ask him if lining up alongside Shaquille O'Neal is anything like standing next to Dwight Howard. The answer is a resounding no.
"It's not the same thing. On that team, it was me and Shaq and role players, who were excellent role players. Here, it's me, Dwight, Steve (Nash) and Pau (Gasol)." Bryant said Saturday.
"We play to each others' strengths. Steve is the best facilitating guard. Pau is the best facilitating big man. The ball goes through those guys, and it allows them to make everybody better. It's really that simple."
So the dynamic then and now is as different as the duos.
"Shaq and I were a different dynamic," Bryant said. "That type of duo, you're not going to find another duo like that ever. There were other duos that were better than us, (Scottie) Pippen and (Michael) Jordan. But you'll never find a duo with two dominant personalities like myself and Shaquille. That was kind of a once-in-a-lifetime thing."
As most know, the dynamic duo didn't last. Bryant said both he and Shaq were "alpha males" and that eventually imploded the team. The Lakers traded O'Neal in 2006.
Dwight Howard said it's wrong to characterize success based on personalities, adding that "you can't look at it as the alpha male. It's basketball. We're not a pack of wolves.
"There's different ways to lead a team. Sometimes you have to follow to learn how to lead. I've done an excellent job with guys of being somebody they can all come to if they have a problem.
"But if they're not working the way they need to work, I'm the guy that will tell 'em, 'Hey, you need to get in the weight room or get some extra shots up.' That's where I come in. I don't have to bark about it to you guys (reporters) or to the team."
Howard said you don't need to flex your muscles or attitude or go peeing in corners to mark your territory to let people know you are an alpha male.
"Just be who you are. You come in the room, people know you're there," he said. "My presence is felt every day, and I don't have to come here and growl and snarl at people. I don't have to do all that.
"(My teammates) like when I come in, have fun and enjoy myself. Because they want to have fun and enjoy themselves, too. If they can't do it, it's not a great working environment.
"I don't think you guys would want to come into work with a boss that's always telling you what to do. If you see the boss being at ease and having fun doing it, then you're going to have fun doing that. That's who I am.
"I've been an alpha male my whole life, but I don't go pissing everywhere to show people that I'm an alpha male. I just need to be who I am."

The packaging of this audiobook says "performed by Jeff Woodman," and does he ever perform! Woodman executes a variety of accents in both sexes as he brings to life this rollicking Indiana Jones-like story of an adventurer in search of ancient secrets, and the woman he loves, set during Napoleon's attempted conquest of Palestine and Egypt. Woodman creates a memorable first-person protagonist in American Ethan Gage, who remains likable despite his many foibles, con-artist morals, frankly admitted cowardice and frequent use of annoyingly folksy similes. Woodman also pulls off convincing French, British and Arabic voices. His pacing never flags through the endless twists, turns and hair-raising escapes that make up this treasure-hunting tale. This enjoyable audio should be accompanied by a large bowl of popcorn. A Harper hardcover (Reviews, Feb. 18). (May)Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

—Seattle Times
Dashing and courageous American adventurer Ethan Gage returns in William Dietrich's The Rosetta Key—the thrilling sequel to the Pulitzer Prize-winning author's acclaimed Napoleon's Pyramids. An eighteenth century Indiana Jones, Gage swashbuckles once again, this time in pursuit of a precious Egyptian relic that would give its owner the power to rule the world. The Rosetta Key an adventure in reading that is not to be missed, especially by fans of George MacDonald Fraser's Flashman novels and aficionados of a grand literary tradition dating back to Jack London, Robert Lewis Stevenson, and H. Rider Haggard, and carried on today by such notables as James Rollins, David Liss, Steve Berry, and Kate Mosse.
Editorial Reviews
Adult/High School -A sequel to Napoleon's Pyramids (HarperCollins, 2007). American adventurer Ethan Gage, protégé of Benjamin Franklin, meets up once more with Napoleon as the French general is beginning his 1798 invasion of the Holy Land. Moving from Jaffa to Acre to Mt. Tabor to Petra and then to Alexandria and Rosetta in Egypt, Gage is never more than one step away from trouble. He is in search of his beloved, Astiza, last seen falling from a hot-air balloon into the Nile, and at the same time he is doing a little espionage for Napoleon's British enemies and hoping to find an ancient Egyptian scroll, the Book of Thoth. Gage's gambling skills, his knowledge of electricity, and his quick wits keep him alive in situations that would daunt a lesser man. He has adventures in love and war, comes close to solving an ancient mystery, and provides an ingenious explanation for the missing piece of the Rosetta Stone. Historical fiction meets thriller here, with plenty to interest fans of both genres. The action is nearly nonstop, the humor is plentiful, and the intrigue is more than enough to keep the pages turning.-Sarah Flowers, Santa Clara County Library, CA

Read an Excerpt
The Rosetta Key
Chapter One
Eyeing a thousand musket barrels aimed at one's chest does tend to force consideration of whether the wrong path has been taken. So I did consider it, each muzzle bore looking as wide as the bite of a mongrel stray in a Cairo alley. But no, while I'm modest to a fault, I have my self-righteous side as well—and by my light it wasn't me but the French army that had gone astray. Which I could have explained to my former friend, Napoleon Bonaparte, if he hadn't been up on the dunes out of hailing distance, aloof and annoyingly distracted, his buttons and medals gleaming in the Mediterranean sun.
The first time I'd been on a beach with Bonaparte, when he landed his army in Egypt in 1798, he told me the drowned would be immortalized by history. Now, nine months later outside the Palestinian port of Jaffa, history was to be made of me. French grenadiers were getting ready to shoot me and the hapless Muslim captives I'd been thrown in with, and once more I, Ethan Gage, was trying to figure out a way to sidestep destiny. It was a mass execution, you see, and I'd run afoul of the general I once attempted to befriend.
How far we'd both come in nine brief months!
I edged behind the biggest of the wretched Ottoman prisoners I could find, a Negro giant from the Upper Nile who I calculated might be just thick enough to stop a musket ball. All of us had been herded like bewildered cattle onto a lovely beach, eyes white and round in the darkest faces, the Turkish uniforms of scarlet, cream, emerald, and sapphire smeared with the smoke and blood of a savage sacking. There were lithe Moroccans, tall and dourSudanese, truculent pale Albanians, Circassian cavalry, Greek gunners, Turkish sergeants—the scrambled levies of a vast empire, all humbled by the French. And me, the lone American. Not only was I baffled by their babble; they often couldn't understand each other. The mob milled, their officers already dead, and their disorder a defeated contrast to the crisp lines of our executioners, drawn up as if on parade. Ottoman defiance had enraged Napoleon—you should never put the heads of emissaries on a pike—and their hungry numbers as prisoners threatened to be a crippling drag on his invasion. So we'd been marched through the orange groves to a crescent of sand just south of the captured port, the sparkling sea a lovely green and gold in the shallows, the hilltop city smoldering. I could see some green fruit still clinging to the shot-blown trees. My former benefactor and recent enemy, sitting on his horse like a young Alexander, was (through desperation or dire calculation) about to display a ruthlessness that his own marshals would whisper about for many campaigns to come. Yet he didn't even have the courtesy to pay attention! He was reading another of his moody novels, his habit to devour a book's page, tear it out, and pass it back to his officers. I was barefoot, bloody, and only forty miles as the crow flies from where Jesus Christ had died to save the world. The past several days of persecution, torment, and warfare hadn't persuaded me that our Savior's efforts had entirely succeeded in improving human nature.
"Ready!" A thousand musket hammers were pulled back.
Napoleon's henchmen had accused me of being a spy and a traitor, which was why I'd been marched with the other prisoners to the beach. And yes, circumstance had given a grain of truth to that characterization. But I hadn't set out with that intent, by any means. I'd simply been an American in Paris, whose tentative knowledge of electricity—and the need to escape an utterly unjust accusation of murder—resulted in my being included in the company of Napoleon's scientists, or savants, during his dazzling conquest of Egypt the year before. I'd also developed a knack for being on the wrong side at the wrong time. I'd taken fire from Mameluke cavalry, the woman I loved, Arab cutthroats, British broadsides, Muslim fanatics, French platoons—and I'm a likable man!
My latest French nemesis was a nasty scoundrel named Pierre Najac, an assassin and thief who couldn't get over the fact that I'd once shot him from beneath the Toulon stage when he tried to rob me of a sacred medallion. It's a long story, as an earlier volume will attest. Najac had come back into my life like a bad debt, and had kept me marching in the prisoner rank with a cavalry saber at my back. He was anticipating my imminent demise with the same feeling of triumph and loathing that one has when crushing a particularly obnoxious spider. I was regretting that I hadn't aimed a shave higher and two inches to the left.
As I've remarked before, it all seems to start with gambling. Back in Paris, it had been a card game that won me the mysterious medallion and started the trouble. This time, what had seemed a simple way to get a new start—taking the bewildered seamen of HMS Dangerous for every shilling they had before the British put me ashore in the Holy Land—had solved nothing and, it could be argued, had actually led to my present predicament. Let me repeat: gambling is a vice, and it is foolish to rely on chance.
But I'm getting ahead of myself.
I, Ethan Gage, have spent most of my thirty-four years trying to keep out of too much trouble and away from too much work. As my mentor and onetime employer, the late, great Benjamin Franklin, would no doubt observe, these two ambitions are as at odds as positive and negative electricity. The pursuit of the latter, no work, is almost sure to defeat the former, no trouble. But that's a lesson, like the headache that follows alcohol or the treachery of beautiful women, forgotten as . . .The Rosetta Key. Copyright © by William Dietrich.

I liked this book because of the pacing of the story, different twist to each page. Reminds me of Raiders of the Lost Ark. An action hero thats not to smart but smart enough to stay alive. When I finished this book I went searching for other titles by William Dietrich.
In 1799 he was fortunate to survive the evil of NAPOLEON'S PYRAMIDS thanks to a hot air balloon ride across the Sahara but now expatriate Ethan Gage is in danger again in the Holy Land as Napoleon¿s army march towards Jerusalem. Gage and Bonaparte had gotten into a dispute over the Great Pyramid power leading to the French dictator proclaiming him an enemy of the state.------------------ Napoleon's followers Count Alessandro Silano and his aide Pierre Najac declare Gage a dangerous traitor to France placing a price for his head. Knowing the peril he faces, Gage fears more for his former lover Astiza as a pawn if the lethal sorcerer Silano captures her. Thus he rushes to Jerusalem to keep her safe, which fits with his other quest perfectly as he follows clues in search of the revered legendary Book of Thoth, an ancient tome that allegedly knows the magical underlying secrets of the universe. ----------------- Using real persona, sites and events (not just Napoleon), William Dietrich writes a terrific historical thriller starring a late eighteenth century Hans Solo impish rogue. The story line is fast-paced but also brings alive the Holy Land. This is one series worth reading as Mr. Dietrich provides THE ROSETTA KEY to how Napoleon consolidated his power.--------- Harriet Klausner
Exciting Adventure with interesting history incorporated. A little too reliance on things will happen because of destiny. Not sure the ending is realistic

Welcome to Shape N Count, where we take our shape counting seriously.
Tap the left side of the screen to count the current shapes and tap the right side of the screen when you think you have it!
Sound simple? Only if you don't take into account the standards (LAWS) you must follow. They can be as easy as adding two sets of shapes together, or as difficult as subtracting two shapes while adding a third!
You must also be sure to not over count or under guess, as either will cause you to lose.
All this AND a strict time limit might I add!
So, how about we count some shapes?

Abnormally warm temperatures (OMG GLOBAL WARMING!!1!) and a lack of snow resulted in roads that became gravel as the cars tore them up and snowbanks that were smaller and softer than usual. The gravel roads were a problem because everyone brought studded tires to the party, and gravel eats studs. The snowbanks were a problem because drivers typically treat Sweden like bumper bowling, carrying extra speed into corners with the intent of bouncing off the snowbank on exit. The softer snowbanks instead acted like an icy tar pit, sucking cars into its depths. Advertisement Many cars spent time trapped in those snowbanks, including Sebastien Ogier. Bad news for 19 of this week's fantasy players, but good news for a brave and clever six. Unsurprisingly these six dominated the week's results, filling the top five spots and six of the top eight (AntMic was let down somewhat by Hanninen and Kubica). Hoccy, thanks to his biased Scandinavian homerism (he is from Norway after all), destroyed everyone with his all-Scandinavian roster, picking the entire finishing top four, along with Henning Solberg for an extra six points. This gave him a massive fourteen point win over second place Lumpy44. But never mind that, there's bigger news! RAPHAEL ORLOVE IS ON THE PODIUM! The only person to ever score less than twenty points in a round (and do it twice) is on the podium! And on a round with 25 entries at that! Remember this moment, for when in a few months the sun explodes and becomes a black hole, fire rains from the sky, and the world is sucked into the abyss, you'll be able to say you saw it coming, for nothing can be a surer sign of the end of the world than what has just transpired.Now then, results!

So anyone else unable to connect to the Game for today's event? No it's not the router and no it's not my internet connection. I just sits on connecting, then returns an error. I was online less than 5 hours ago and I can see traffic leaving my network to the PSN.
I've been having the same issue for the last few days.

Just thought I'd post some interesting observations, just sent my Bryston BCD-1 in for a service check, just a little random problem but in the interim hooked up my 14 year old (?) HHB CDR830.
Well the CDR830 may have been respected by some, but it just does not do the HD700 justice.
Only shows that the 700s are fairly revealing of up stream components, the rich analogue sound I was getting from the Bryson is just not there, especially with regards to the bass and upper frequencies so that the sound from the 700s was just ok, sound staging and layering is also affected.
The main reason for posting this is that if for some the HD700 is only coming across as mediocre and strident it may be just be your associated equipment, with Bryston BCD-1 the 700 shine and show a higher end pedigree over the HD6xxs but not so with a lesser source.
My concentrated sojourn last week comparing the HD800s and 700s was fairly revealing and had me returning the 800s only because I knew for me which one would receive the most play-time.
Still haven't dismissed the 800s and currently looking for a mint used pair as paying full pop, even on sale, doesn't justify the expenditure for me but being the audio-fool that I am I'd still like to have a pair on hand.

If ever there was a difficult, controversial topic in cosmetics, it's sunscreen. At Amazingy we get dozens of questions per month about the subject. It's always the cause of much discussion, so I felt it was about time to write an article about everything I've learned about this topic.
I decided to neglect the guru-talk and home-kitchen-garden knowledge out there as much as possible. Reason: each source is saying something different, making it very difficult to find out what is true and what is not. That's why I chose to only go on as much scientifically proven reports as I could get my head around. Needless to say, I wrote this article while having a caffeine + 85% dark chocolate induced buzz most of the time.
Finally I'd like to state: I am not a doctor or an authority in this field. I'm just a guy using his common sense. If I learn that I've made mistakes around this topic, I will edit the article, although I'm pretty sure the content is all based on the latest scientific research out there.
Don't feel like reading a lengthy article? Scroll down for my advice and conclusion.
Ultraviolet radiation reaching the earth can be divided into UVA (320–400 nm) and UVB (290–320 nm). An easy way of saying what the difference is between the two types, is to think of UVA as the aging radiation, and UVB as the burning radiation. Your exposure to UV radiation depends on factors such as your current location on planet earth, time of year/day, and atmospheric conditions (clouds, smog, pollution). For example, if you're sipping a juicy, shaken not stirred, alcohol free (yeah, right!) cocktail on the beach of Barcelona at noon in the summer, the radiation mix is about 94% UVA, and 6% UVB.
Note: UVC rays do not reach the earth's surface as they are completely absorbed by the ozone layer.
UVB has been the traditional focus — stop the sunburn and all is well. Therefore, the famous sun protection factor (SPF) is a score used to describe the 'strength' of the product to protect against "sun-burn", i.e. mainly UVB radiation. That's partly the reason why many sunscreens do not block UVA radiation well enough.
This is a problem, because even though UVA does not cause sunburn, it does cause damage to the skin without you noticing it. UVA causes the skin to age faster (oh no, wrinkles! Get me my BB CC DD cream, quickly darling!) and can increase the chances of developing melanoma and photodermatitis. On top of that, not only can UVA pass through glass, its rays penetrate deeper into the skin than UVB does.
If you've ever looked like a boiled lobster after spending a day in the sun, you are well aware of the short-term effects UVB can have on you. Short term sunburns can range from some redness to seriously dangerous situations. Long term however, the skin will show signs of both UVA and UVB damage: degenerative changes including premature aging and skin damage, as well as fibrous tissue and circulatory changes. Both are the direct result from chronic exposure to the sun. And then there's the big C-word we are all worried about: Cancer. Both UVA and UVB are now implicated as cancer-causing, and UV radiation is considered a carcinogen.
Sunscreens marked 'broad spectrum', 'multi spectrum' or 'UVA/UVB protection' usually contain UVA-blocking ingredients such as stabilized avobenzone, ecamsule, oxybenzone, titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide.
We have learned that the SPF level of a sunscreen specifies its level of protection against UVB. To be exact: SPF of 15 filters out about 93 percent of incoming UVB rays, SPF-30 already blocks 97% of UVB and SPF-50 only one percent more, 98%.
In fact, it's so misleading for consumers that the EU has banned any labels over SPF-50, and in the US, the FDA is also finalizing this long overdue limitation. The EU has also banned labeling claims such as 'total protection', '100% protection', 'sunblock' and 'all day prevention' on any marketing info associated with the sunscreen.
My advice: SPF-15 is a good start since it blocks 93% of UVB. On sunny days or days when you are outside for a longer period of time, the step up to SPF 30 is worth it. Anything over SPF50 seems to be nonsense:
As you can see, it seems like it's a fair statement that higher SPF products are more about marketing, rather than meaningful differences in potential sun protection. You get better protection using a medium spf sunscreen properly than using a very high spf suncreen badly. And therein lies a big problem: hardly anybody uses enough sunscreen or applies again after a certain amount of time.
SPF values are calculated based on a dose of about 30 ML (1 oz) for the entire body — much more than you and I are probably using. The result: insufficient amounts of sunscreen are applied to achieve the labeled UV protection. In real-world observations of use, actual protection is limited far more by the amount applied, and how often it is reapplied, than by the SPF.
An EWG report illustrates the consequences of inadequate use of sunscreens, based on applying one-quarter of the recommended amount:
As you can see this is a totally different score than the SPF test results, where SPF 30 only allowed 4% to go through. No wonder people still burn when using sunscreens!
Concerning SPF tests and their outcome, there is hardly a difference between the FDA test and the EU Colipa test: the Colipa rating in Europe requires that a UVA protection forms one third of the total SPF rating. Hence, if the UVA protection is SPF 5 and the UVB protection is SPF 30, the overall SPF allowed to be displayed on the product is 15. In the USA, according to the new FDA guidelines from 2012, sunscreen labels can only claim that they offer broad spectrum protection if they protect against both UVA and UVB rays.
So when a product in the US delivers broadband protection, the difference between EU and US SPF is negligable: when a US broadband sunscreen has an SPF of 30, it will get about the same rate in the EU (needless to say all SPF products on Amazingy are broadband!).
However: when the skin after sun exposure reacts with redness, itching or pain, tiny bumps that merge into raised patches, scaling, crusting or bleeding, blisters or hives, you might have a case of sun allergy. The type of sunscreen and amount of SPF that is then needed to keep your skin safe may differ from the above stated recommendations. Stay tuned for a follow up article on sun allergy.
UV Filters reduce the amount of ultraviolet light penetrating into the skin by reflecting, dispersing or converting it into heat.
Particles of titanium dioxide (TiO2) or zinc oxide (ZnO) function are known as physical UV filters. These physical (inorganic) barriers block the skin from sunlight with particulate matter, reflecting and scattering UV rays.
Simply said, the particles act as 1000's of mini-mirrors on the skin. Physical barriers are near-perfect sunscreens: they protect against UVA and UVB, they start working immediately, they're stable, seen as safe, and don't break down in the sun (meaning if you don't swim or sweat a lot they will still work exactly the same after hours of use, so you don't need to re-apply).
So why don't we all use them? Since the zinc oxide and titanium dioxide particles are white, they can cause an undesired whitening effect (the famous white cast) on the skin at high concentrations. This is prevented by reducing the size of the pigment particles to about 200 nanometers (millionths of a millimeter) – which makes them more transparent on the skin.
Physical UV filters in conventional products are used mainly in sunscreens with higher sun protection factors above 25 . They are also used a lot in natural/organic marketed products, because these usually do not use chemical filters. Physical filters are even suitable for the sensitive skin of children and people with allergies.
Zinc oxide is generally seen as very safe. It's been used without problems for a long time in many skin care products and hardly anybody is allergic to it. It's anti-inflammatory, and can work wonders on acne (which is why for people with acne, switching from conventional makeup to mineral makeup can help minimize breakouts of adult acne). Zinc oxide sits on the skin so it does not get absorbed or block pores, it can be used on delicate skin and it is a main active ingredient in diaper rash cream used on babies, aiding in healing the skin by protecting it from the warm, moist outside. You can even eat little amounts of it without problems: zinc oxide is even added as a nutrient to some cereals and vitamin pills.
In sunscreens, zinc oxide is known for it's extremely broadband UV protection and stability. Simply said, nothing happens to it, not even hours after applying it and baking in the sun. It's very stable and it continues to do it's job even after hours of exposure. See picture below, where white is before exposure and black after long exposure to strong UV rays.
Titanium dioxide is a bit more controversial, even though when used correctly it is also generally seen as a very safe ingredient. You may not realise it, but titanium dioxide can be found everywhere – you probably use it daily, maybe even without knowing it. 4,5 million tonnes of the stuff is produced each year and it is used in a huge number of products ranging from paint to candy, toothpaste to solarcells, and vitamin pills to smog protection for skyscrapers. Added side effect: did you know it filters out a lot of nastiness from cigarettes?
The problem is that titanium dioxide can be phototoxic. The smaller the particle, the more problems it causes. To suppress the photochemical activity (in other words, make the titanium dioxide more stable), sunscreen manufacturers are now coating the particles with other inert, inorganic ingredients, like alumina, aluminum hydroxide (both not to be confused by the controversial aluminum chlorohydrate) and/or hydrated silica, after which an organic substance like staeric acid is added to the mix in order to make the particles more water-repellent, ensuring that the sunscreen will stay on the skin for a longer period of time. Great, right? Almost! New studies show chlorine in swimming pools can degrade the coating, exposing the nano-partcile sized titanium dioxide.
For more detailed info on titanium dioxide please, see note 1 at the bottom of this article.
First of all, it's not always size that matters: it is not the particle size that's always dangerous – we all eat thousands of harmless nano-particles every day. In some substances though, nano-particles can be dangerous.
Most zinc oxide and titanium dioxide manufacturers produce three cosmetic grades of zinc oxide; USP1, a micronized (slightly smaller) grade, and a nanoparticle (super small) grade. You could compare it to a soccer ball, tennis ball, and a marble, just 1000's times smaller. Manufacturers use the USP1 grade as the starting feed material for the other two grades, which are created through additional processing.
A nanoparticle is a particle smaller than 100 nanometers, or 100 billionths of a meter. Defining whether a powder is non-nano or not is very difficult, as it is virtually impossible to ensure that a product is 100 percent nanoparticle free. Furthermore, many particles are not spherical in shape and thus are difficult to measure. The FDA has declined to weigh in on this controversial issue and currently does not make a distinction between 'nano' or 'non nano'.
In the EU, non nano is defined as 'the primary particle size is greater than 100nm', and from July 2013 on, if nano technology was used, it has to say so on the packaging. Australia defines non nano as 'more than 90% of particles are above 100nm'.
Concerning nano-particles from titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, there are really two opinions. While some scientists say they are potentially dangerous, others say this has not been proven at all. The latest research shows that these particles are not dangerous unless inhaled, which is why they pose more danger in sprays than in creams.
Some zinc oxide manufacturers and sunscreen brands are selling their sunscreen with active UV filters like ZinClear IM50. This supposedly non-nano zinc oxide ingredient should be completely transparant. It is indeed very transparant, but non nano? I don't think so. They use a technique that clumps together multiple nano-particles.
So is it recommended to use a product containing nano-particles? In sprays: no. In creams: every now and then, but definitely not on a daily base.
Chemical (organic) barriers filter and absorb UV radiation. Their chemical structure converts UV radiation to heat. They vary in their chemical properties, as well as their ability to absorb UVA, UVB, or both.
Research has found that many sunscreens contain chemicals that are estrogenic, which means that they disrupt the endocrine system and can play a role in cancer development. For example, octyl-methoxycinnamate, which is estrogenic and has thyroid hormone-disrupting effects, and homosalate, a hormone-disrupting UVB blocker, can both be found in tons of sunscreens.
A form of vitamin A called retinyl palmitate (or retinol) is present in 20 percent of sport sunscreens and has been linked to the acceleration of skin tumors and lesions when exposed to the sun, according to the EWG. In the US, oxybenzone is still being used a lot in sunscreens, even though this is a known hormone disruptor as well, and has been banned from many countries.
(Tip for readers located in the US: only buy organic/natural sunscreen that uses physical filters!)
A Swiss study states: Few human studies have investigated the potential side effects of UV-filters, although human exposure is high, as UV-filters in sunscreens are rapidly absorbed through the skin.
A startling find: One of the UV-filters, BP-3, has been found in 96 percent of urine samples in the US and several UV-filters in 85 percent of Swiss breast milk samples. The logical next step is to evaluate whether exposure to UV-filters contributes to possible adverse effects on the development of foetuses and children, but this study hasn't been done yet.
The question to what extent lifestyle can influence the presence of chemicals in breast milk was the foundation for the preparation of the above mentioned questionnaire. The questions were focused particularly on the use of cosmetic products; information on the relationship between the exposure of human populations to constituents of cosmetics and the presence of these constituents in the human body was limited and, in the case of UV filters, absent.
A total daily intake of each individual chemical was calculated for each individual infant, from their individual levels in human milk. Calculation included fat content of individual milk samples, total daily milk intake per infant and body weight of the infant. Some infants exhibited values of daily intake of PCB'ss and several organochlor pesticides that were above US EPA reference dose values.
Margret Schlumpf and Walter Lichtensteiger, who lead the research, stated:
"Research on the effects of endocrine disrupters (chemicals interfering with hormone actions) has shown that it is of utmost importance to obtain information on simultaneous exposure of humans to different types of chemicals because endocrine active chemicals can act in concert. Information on exposure is particularly important for the developing organism at its most sensitive early life stages. Human milk was chosen because it provides direct information on exposure of the suckling infant and indirect information on exposure of the mother during pregnancy."
Does this mean all chemicals in our bodies come through the skin? Nope. More and more chemicals end up in surface water and we are unable to filter them out. With the consumption of food and water, they accumulate in our body tissue.
Last but not least, chemical UV filters cause damage to coral reeves. See note 2 at the bottom of this article.
Zinc oxide still beats all the other active ingredients out there and offers the most broadband protection of all known UV filters. Coated titanium dioxide follows closely and can be seen as a broadband filter as well.
As you can see in the graphs below, zinc oxide offers great coverage between 290-400nm. In other graphs I've seen that in some cases it even offers coverage up to 700nm, while titanium dioxide has good coverage between 290-350nm, but insufficient coverage between 350-400 nm, especially in microfine forms. Both also filter quite a bit of UVC.
From the FDA:
There are many natural oils that could provide protection against UV rays, because of the anti-oxidants they contain. By adding these oils to their sunscreens, manufacturers can use less conventional UV filters while keeping a high SPF. Brands like Eco by Sonya (formerly known as Eco Tan), Alga Maris, Soleo Organics, and Eco Cosmetics use this knowledge to their advantage.
Here are some oils and their SPF value:
Dr. Alkaitis states:
Our entire line has it's own natural sun protection which is inherent in the plants themselves. The Replenishing Serum is recommended for the face and body before, during and after sun exposure. The Nourishing Treatment Oil and Day Cream may be worn on the face for daily sun protection. They have a natural SPF of about 4.
As you can see, red raspberry seed oil has an incredibly high SPF. The reason is that it possesses an exceptionally high proportion of alpha and gamma tocopherols (aka Vitamin E), vitamin A and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. In a recent study, the oil showed absorbance in the UV-B and even UV-C ranges, suggesting that it may be useful as a broad spectrum UV filter.
P.S: Seems like that caffeine buzz might do more than just keeping me awake: Studies have found that caffeine can reduce the risk of some types of cancer, including non-melanoma skin cancer. Caffeine affects several proteins in a cell, including an enzyme called ATR which senses DNA damage and blocks certain cellular processes, in order to allow affected DNA to be repaired. In another study, inactive ATR had a similar effect to caffeine on skin cells after UV damage. The researchers conclude that this may suggest that caffeine's UV protective effect, documented in previous studies, is due to ATR inhibition. I'll have another Americano, thanks!
Note 1)
Titanium dioxide crystals are generally seen in one of two forms: rutile and anatase. The rutile form is more popular due to its higher stability and slightly better whitening abilities, while the anatase form is softer and less abrasive, and therefore popular for healthcare products and foods. In UV products, only the rutile form should be used, but this is unfortunately not always the case. Just a couple of months the Australian government issued a warning about products from Nivea, L'Oreal and Proctor & Gamble using unstable nano-particles of titanium dioxide in their sunscreen. Why this is bad? Because these particles are very unstable:
Some skin cancers are linked to UV-induced free radical damage to the skin, which is why wearing sunscreens with strong broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection is recommended by medical authorities. However, recent studies have shown that the anatase form of titanium dioxide (and in particular nano-scale anatase titanium dioxide) can increase the formation of free radicals when exposed to sunlight and water. A number of scientists have questioned the safety of their use in sunscreens and other skin products. Anatase titanium dioxide is an aggressive free radical producer, compared to rutile titanium Dioxide.
In 2008, a peer reviewed study found that nano anatase titanium dioxide in sunscreen was reacting with sunlight and breaking down the coating on steel roofing in a matter of weeks. The study raised serious concerns about the impact these ingredients may be having on our skin. In 2010, Italian scientists warned that nanosized anatase titanium dioxide is 'capable of destroying virtually any organic matter.'

Chemical sunscreen causes coral damage: According to a prominent scientific study by Roberto Danovaro and team at the Marche Polytechnic University in Ancona, Italy, Sunscreens can damage coral reefs. Up to 10 percent of the world's coral reefs may be threatened by sunscreen induced coral bleaching.
Their paper is entitled 'Sunscreens Cause Coral Bleaching by Promoting Viral Infections', and it was published in the peer reviewed journal Environmental Health Perspectives in 2008.
Each year between 4000-6000 metric tons (4400-6600 US tons) of sunscreen washes off swimmers and snorkelers into coral reef environments.
Four common sunscreen ingredients were shown to cause complete coral bleaching at very low concentrations. They are:
Other factors such as global warming, pollution, and human activities are likely a far greater threat to coral reefs than sunscreens are at this point. However, that is not a reason to ignore the results of this research. There has been limited criticism of this study, but it is good peer-reviewed science, and the results should be taken seriously. Anyone swimming or snorkeling in the tropical ocean near coral should consider using a coral reef safe sunscreen.

Dissertation Qualitative Data Analysis Chapter
Being a former correspondent, assistant professor, and experienced dissertation-writing-class coach at New York University, I - can guarantee you there is just one fail safe strategy, one secret, one certain technique that you might want so that you can finish your dissertation: Publish.That's it. Significantly. I hate to become the bearer of terrible media, but you can find no magical techniques to the production of writing, educational or otherwise. You do—you should learn to differentiate the act of writing itself and publish every day if you'd like to accomplish your dissertation in a reasonable amount of time—and trust me. Writing should develop into a non-flexible section of your everyday regime.Here's the essential, system that is scalable that I would recommend: Sit your butt down in a chair, ultimately in a disruption and calm - free area. Eliminate your web and convert your phone on quiet. Enter into your publishing room having previously done the investigation you will need for that day's writing process. You will not be exploring or seeking anything up throughout your writing moment (investigation and editing are distinct responsibilities, imagine it or not, and may be performed in distinct blocks).Don't do "poms"—timed times of 25 moments with five- breaks in between—for writing. not below, although they work well for other discrete responsibilities, arrangement or getting or like research your bibliography together. Alternatively, try and create for moment. With 10, we publish for 50 minutes in NYU's courses - second pauses, for 4 hours . Which may not be possible if you operate or have young children, on writing five times a week for a minimum of two hours every day, but plan. It's doable, I offer.Here's the rationale for producing each day: Writing is pondering. It requires it's and occasion allowed to be challenging. The largest mistake I've observed most graduate students create is to mythologize what I contact "the second of genius." Because publishing is contemplating, excellent views do not just seem after extended hours of challenging musing on a matter around the page. In my own encounter, the most effective ideas typically come about through the work of publishing itself—usually simply at that time when you've run out of water and therefore are looking along a seemingly intractable difficulty, frantically planning to stop. These would be the development minutes. Commitment towards the publishing procedure is much more significant than genius, when you're writing a dissertation, one of many most difficult mental jobs an individual may do. In the event the smartest person in the world can't learn how to publish, then she won't be a productive instructional. Period.Previously year, I've trained over 60 Ph.D. Individuals from departments—from computer that is assorted science to German literature, to science from anthropology. And regardless of the differences in style and discipline of writing, my guidance and the process remain exactly the same. Everyone struggles with equivalent technical and psychological dilemmas: delay, distraction, anxiety, constructing a disagreement, finding their style, adding theory and evidence. It's quite difficult work, this writing -your- factor. The trick will be to not make by preventing the work itself it possibly harder.How Long Should A Dissertation Be
