Murray Perahia, the most prolific classical pianist in recording history, began the piano as a prodigy at age three. Born in New York in 1947 to Sephardic parents, musical culture was part of his upbringing.
He attended the High School of Performing Arts and New York's Mannes College of Music, graduating from the latter in conducting and composition, his primary interests back then. But the great pianist Rudolf Serkin heard the young man play and invited him to appear at the Marlboro Festival for Chamber Music in Vermont. He performed there four years in a row with the likes of Serkin, Pablo Casals, and the Budapest String Quartet. He debuted in Carnegie Hall in 1968 at age 21 under the direction of Alexander Schneider, and four years later became the first American to win the prestigious Leeds International Piano Competition. By that year's end, he had a recording contract with CBS (today Sony).
At first, his recording and live performance emphasis was chamber music. From 1981 through 1989, he became Co-Artistic Director for England's Aldeburgh Festival. Over the years, as his prestige as solo performer aspired to the rarefied heights occupied by a Horowitz (who became a close personal friend) or a Rubenstein, Murray Perahia has performed at every major international center, with every leading orchestra, and under all the great conductors of the 20th century: Bernstein, Abbado, Barenboim, Mehta, Maazel, Solti. Critics marvel at his lyrical and 'tempestuous' playing, and audiences flock to buy tickets when his touring schedules are announced.
At the core of Murray Perahia's work is Mozart. His complete recording of the Piano Concertos with the English Chamber Orchestra is considered definitive. Schumann and Brahams figure prominently in his career also, and his 2003 Grammy as Best Instrumental Performance was for Chopin's Etudes Op.10 and Op.25, which Gramophone Magazine declared the finest Etudes ever recorded. But his interpretations of Bach have been a great surprise to the classical music world. A freak accident in the 1990's led to a newer, intense interest in Bach. After cutting his thumb on a piece of paper, the cut became infected and needed surgery. While recovering, Murray Perahia studied Bach exhaustively. The result was two Grammys: in 1999 for Bach's English Suites 1, 3, and 6, and in 2001 for Bach's Goldberg Variations. For any pianist to take on the latter after Glenn Gould's nearly clean sweep, is to invite comparison. Murray Perahia's interpretation couldn't be more different than Gould's, and the BBC has declared him now 'the greatest Bach interpreter of our day.'
Currently, Mr. Perahia is Guest Principal Conductor of St. Martins in the Field. He is acclaimed for programming as a conductor, artistic director and performer. He will have Mozart played poignantly, almost vulnerably at a concert's beginning, for instance, to heighten the effect of a lyrical Schubert sonata, following. The world can continue to expect more concert and recording excitement for a long time to come, from this great musician. His work is, as one critic said, 'beyond praise.' Indeed!

The chance of malicious data getting through to your phone is pretty slim, but it still exists. Over on Node, they show off a way to make sure only power can get through the USB port. Advertisement You'll essentially be disassembling a couple of different USB plugs and then reassembling them together to create a connection that blocks data transfers but allows powering. You'll need some light soldering skills, but otherwise it's a simple project to make for yourself. It's probably not a necessity for most of us, but it's a fun little thing to make either way.

The Women's Room
Hollywood movies often depict Jewish culture, but they haven't been as thorough with regard to the religion itself, says Kathryn Bernheimer, programmer for the Boulder Jewish Film Festival and author of The 50 Greatest Jewish Movies: A Critic's Ranking of the Very Best. There are few Orthodox Jewish directors and even fewer who are women. Rama Burshtein has paved the way with Fill the Void, her romantic 2012 insider's drama about Orthodox marriage, which screens tonight at the festival.
"It's the first film to be directed by an Orthodox woman for a mass audience. Just to have an Orthodox film made is challenging enough, given all sorts of religious restrictions," Bernheimer says. "Orthodox women are not supposed to look men in the eye, so for one to make a feature film, that caught my attention. This is definitely a romantic story, something women will be interested in. It's a beautiful story, very Jane Austen-like."
Fill the Void plays at 7 p.m. at the Boedecker Theater, in the Dairy Center for the Arts, 2590 Walnut Street in Boulder; tickets, $12, are available at thedairy.org or 303-440-7826. The film festival continues through March 9; visit boulderjcc.org for a complete schedule.

It seems, at least to my There is already the idf() term weight for the matching terms. However, I'd like to have the possibility to have the same weight for each term matching a wildcard: one use of a wildcard is that you don't care which term matches, but you do consider every possible match equally important. AFAIK such equal weighting is not possible with the current Similarity interface. > newbie mindset, that Similarity is carrying around too much, although > it is a one-stop place (or seems to sell itself that way) for all score > related tweaks.

The nice thing about an interface is that it allows you to fall back to a default.

Something like fuzzyFreq(int distance) would make sense. For the wildcards there is a problem, though. Currently they work just like an OR query with idf() weights. However, i'd like the possibility to have the same weights for OR'ed terms, too, just like for the wildcards I mentioned above. It seems that this would require to add an operator to the query language, eg. WOR, Weighted OR, which would give all OR'ed terms the same weight. A first step could be wildcards with equal weights, this would at least cover the case of very low frequency spelling errors, that currently get a too high idf() weight. A rather drastic way to accomplish this would be to have idf() always return 1 leaving all the weighting to the query weights.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Ultima Online Producer Chris Rabideau has posted a letter to the community in the UO Herald, informing the citizens of Britannia that the Ultima Online team will be moving from their offices in San Francisco to the EA Mythic studios in Fairfax, Virginia.
Citizens of Britannia,I wanted to share with you a significant change that is about to take place with the UO development team. Over the next several months, we'll be moving the team from its current location at EA's headquarters outside of San Francisco, CA to the EA Mythic studios in Fairfax, VA.
So what does this mean to you? This is a big move for the team, but we expect it to have very little impact on the game and community in the short term. Planned development and operations will continue with minimal interruption.
In the long term, we believe this move will be a big win for UO and will allow us to better support the game as we move into its second decade of operation. By having all three MMO teams together here in Virginia, we'll be better able to focus on Ultima Online's development and ensure a long and lively future for the game.
Read more here.
Better focus = pre-ren servers right?
If not, then who cares about this dead horse.
Thanks for the post though.
MaeEye FOR PRESIDENT.
AMEN. HEYZUES on the CRUCIFEX.
Sadly, this move clearly indicates that the ole' beloved UO is now one step closer to death.
Well maybe housing is a bit cheaper but omg hope any employees that make the move are prepared for a significant culture shock.
Fairfax / Washington / Baltimore area != San Francisco Bay Area

A move to another state signifies the death of UO? How do you surmise that?
Getting out of Cali is a good thing imho. Glad I'm outta there.

< b>Managing the Nonprofit World: Purpose & Practice\n
About the Presenter:\n
Jeremy Bell is the Executive Minister of the Canadian Baptists of Western Canada. He has an MA from Royal Roads University in Organizat ional Leadership\, specializing in how not-for-profits develop assessment tools. Jeremy did his thesis in cooperation with the YMCA.\n
Jeremy has co-founded three ongoing not-for-profits in Vancouver:\n
He has volunteered i n leadership with many organizations:\n
Objective of the conference: You will explore the unique ness of not-for-profits\, including their specific and unique ways of gove rnance\, identifying and satisfying stakeholder needs\, focusing on purpos e and assessment of their work.\n
This non-profit management one day conference will review the unique miss ion\, purpose and vision of the not for profit sector and its relationship to contemporary Canadian social structures. It will examine aspects of g overnance\, the measurement of outcomes\, metrics that make sense\, defini ng and engaging multiple stakeholders\, and encouraging attendees to apply this knowledge to their own individual contexts.\n
In an age of eco nomic and fiscal restraint\, every level of government is seeking to restr ain public expenditure on what has been considered over the last 70 years as appropriate entitlement. As the relationship between governance\, not for profits\, public philanthropy\, and personal altruism change\, it is i mportant that not for profits anticipate and frame that new narrative so t hat they can continue to serve their existing and future clients.\n
This non-profit management conference is for directors\, board members\, p astors\, financial officers\, and others who are leaders in a non-profit o rganization. Both dialogue and praxis\, based upon discussion with both th inkers and practitioners\, and grounded in the realities of the participan t's own context will shape the time together.\n

Beauvoir was born in Chicago to parents of Haitian background. He played drums and sang and as a child and switched to bass and vocals as a teenager due to his parents lack of tolerance. He was discovered by Gary U.S. Bond's whilst performing at a local Long Island club with his band and was offered the position of musical director at age 14. He was then invited to join the classic Doo Wop group The Flamingos, (I Only Have Eyes For You) as the youngest singer/member. He gained his first music experiences with these groups touring the US performing at Dick Clark revival concerts across America. He moved to New York City during the punk rock explosion and answered a newspaper ad for a bassist, which led to his joining The Plasmatics for the most important years of the bands career. During his time with the group, The Plasmatics went on to dominate the worldwide press and performed to millions around the world with their legendary stage antics and rebellious punk rock message. While with the Plasmatics and subsequently, Beauvoir sported a memorable Blonde Mohawk, which became his trademark for years to come. His look has been celebrated in Children's cartoons, animations, TV shows and many celebrities have paid homage to Beauvoir for decades including Sly Stone who channeled Beauvoir's look at the 2008 Grammy Awards as written in the press "La Weekly" etc….
He left the group after their release Beyond the Valley of 1984, advice that had been given to him by David Lee Roth. Beauvoir passed on offers from Prince and Billy Idol to pursue his solo career, but unable to find a label who would sign a Plasmatic who wanted to sing, he was convinced to join Steve Van Zandt's Little Steven & the Disciples of Soul for two albums and toured extensively with the group. This showed the world a different side of Beauvoir's talent and added credibility to the mix. Yet still anxious to pursue a solo career, he departed and was introduced to manager Gary Kurfirst (The Eurythmics, Talking Heads) and Richard Branson of Virgin Records UK who saw the potential and offered Beauvoir his own label to record his first solo album in 1985 "Drums Along the Mohawk". He was granted full artistic freedom. Beauvoir chose to record the album initially at media Sound in NY and then moved to ABBA's Polar Studio in Sweden by special invite from the ABBA camp, who had actually offered Beauvoir a singles deal prior to him signing with Branson and Kurfirst. The album featured Beauvoir playing all instruments, producing and writing except for a few guest appearances by Mick Jones (Foreigner) and Tommy Lafferty, who worked with Beauvoir for many years. The album was released in the UK and the rest of the world with Beauvoir and Kurfirst retaining the rights for the US. That same year, the track, "Feel the Heat" was coincidentally chosen by Sylvester Stallone for his film COBRA and also as the lead song/trailer for the largest worldwide advertising/promotional campaign for a Hollywood film to date.
Al Teller, president of Columbia Records in the US spotted Beauvoir's talent and immediately offered him a deal for the US making Beauvoir a priority release. The song was a hit, charting Top 10 across Europe and Australia and also entered the Billboard Hot 100. The video was on heavy rotation on MTV, VH1 for months in the US and also across the globe, which gave him the notoriety he had worked so hard for.
Beauvoir recorded two solo albums for Columbia and Virgin then decided to move on to pursue a group project he had in mind, "Voodoo X". Columbia resigned Voodoo X internationally out of the UK for the world and they began recording with Beauvoir and Max Norman producing. Being a prolific writer/ producer, Beauvoir found time to produce/co-write with acts such as Kiss, John Waite, Ramones, Nona Hendryx, Cameo, The Pretenders, Deborah Harry, Lionel Richie, Nile Rogers, Doro, Glenn Hughes and N'SYNC. Beauvoir recalls that he was thrilled when he was pulled from the audience by Lionel Richie's security and invited to take photos whilst being complemented by Lionel Richie with a special message from Michael Jackson stating that they were proud of him for his foresight and carrying the torch for black Artists, allowing them the freedom to explore self-expression doing music that was against the grain and adhering to a visual image that would open the door for so many to follow suit in the future.
Beauvoir has been able to maintain his integrity and credibility with audiences, press, labels, other artists and musicians whilst straddling different music genres. He has appeared on over 200 albums over the past two decades and has collaborated with 5 Artists who have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame and has sold in excess of 40 million records as an Artist, Producer and Songwriter.
Following the hugely acclaimed Voodoo X album that to date is still considered one of the best hard rock albums of the era, Beauvoir was called by record mogul Jimmy Iovine of Interscope Records and asked to record a new solo record. At the time, Beauvoir was exploring a new project with fellow musicians Tony Thompson (Chic, Led Zeppellin, David Bowie, Madonna) and Micki Free (Shalamar). Beauvoir suggested this project in lieu of a solo album, Jimmy Iovine agreed, which led to the signing of Jean's group Crown Of Thorns for a much publicized record breaking deal. Prince, a long time fan of Beauvoir's and other labels came forth with competing offers, but Interscope emerged as the winner. The album was recorded for Interscope, but due to a very sudden climate change in the industry "grunge", it was decided that the album would not be released in the US. International labels caught wind of this news and immediately made offers to release the record around the world. The album was released in 1994 around the world through various labels and remained on the UK rock charts for 6 months alongside the international success and acclaim that the album received around the world. This led to extensive touring in support throughout Europe including a stadium tour with Bon Jovi who was also a fan of Beauvoir's previous solo works. Other acts on the bill were Van Halen and Slash. Crown of Thorns recorded 7 albums to date, with the last release "Faith" in 2008 through Frontiers and Sony Red in the US. Songs from this release gained heavy rotation airplay on rock radio, Sirius XM and are also featured in MTV's "ROCK BAND" game.
Both Beauvoir's hard rock groups have achieved significant success in the rest of the world and Beauvoir has earned a multitude of Platinum and Gold awards for his work in the US and abroad.
Beauvoir has made hundred's of TV appearances throughout the years and has been photographed by legendary photographer's including Annie Leibowitz for a worldwide Polaroid campaign, Lynn Goldsmith, Mark Weiss and many others per their request due to his iconic look. In addition to his film music work with Sylvester Stallone, his credit list includes title tracks or theme songs for the movies Pet Semetary from Stephen King's novel, Wes Craven's blockbuster Shocker, Flawless (with Robert De Niro), School of Rock (with Jack Black), Christmas with the Kranks (with Tim Allen, Jamie Lee Curtis and Dan Aykroyd), The Guilty (with Bill Pullman), Rock 'n' Roll High School Forever, Berlin Nights (with Gabriela Tscherniack), RV (with Robin Williams) and Unthinkable (with Samuel Jackson). More films to come…
Beauvoir founded and serves as CEO/President of Voodoo Island Entertainment Group whose divisions included Voodoo Island Records and Voodoo Island Productions. Over the course of his professional career, he has created joint venture partnerships with industry luminaries such as Richard Branson, Al Teller, Ted Fields, Jimmy Iovine, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Hartwig Masuch, Martin Bandier, Lance Freed and others. Beauvoir is also the founder and CEO/President of Hot Boy Music and Tigre Noire Music. Beauvoir's worldwide music catalogue contains over 500 published titles currently administered by Rondor/Universal Music Publishing. For 61⁄2 years, Beauvoir took a break from music and was recruited by Steven Van Zandt to serve as CEO/Managing Director of his media and entertainment company, Renegade Nation, who's operations include terrestrial and Sirius XM Satellite radio programming, live event and television production, record label operations, music licensing, merchandising and an online social networking venture. Beauvoir and Van Zandt worked together to lend their talents and experience in the effort to help up and coming Artists get exposure through these various channels. Beauvoir decided he was missing the creative aspect of music and left Renegade in 2011 to once again pursue his musical ambitions.
He negotiated a new publishing deal with Rondor/Universal Music Publishing's Lance Freed who acquired Beauvoir's catalogue from BMG.
Since, he produced tracks for the "Joey Ramone" post humous album "Ya Know" released by BMG in 2012. http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/joey-ramone-rocks-again-on-new-lp-20120221 and has been been actively writing and producing for other Artists, his most recent successes are with the Artist "Vivi Jiang" (Fashion Show) #15 Global Pop Charts China April, 2013 and with the SHINEE mini album "Everybody" which was number #1 on multiple charts across ASIA as of October 15, 2013, #5 US iTunes and #2 Billboard World Charts in November 2013.
BILLBOARD # 1! February 2015, Beauvoir enters the US Billboard World Album Charts once again at #1 with the Korean superstar "Jonghyun". They reached the #1 position in the world on ITunes in addition to topping the charts across Asia with the album and the single "Crazy Guilty Pleasure".

He has contributed his writing and lead vocals to two other upcoming musicals developed by Andreas Carlsson (Backstreet Boys, Celine Dion, N'Sync, Brittney Spears, Westlife, and many more and Uwe Fahrenkrog Petersen from (Nena).
Beauvoir participated in a charity song where he is a featured lead vocalist produced and written by Dick Wagner entitled "If I had the time". The song also features Mark Farner (Grand Funk Railroad) and an amazing lineup of other legendary Artists who have donated their time to benefit St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. Beauvoir is also a featured Lead vocalist and songwriter on the recent (2015) "Radioactive - Legends of Rock" album produced by renown guitarist Tommy Denander, (Michael Jackson, Alice Cooper and many more) which features numerous icons including Steve Walsh, Fergie Fredrickson, Bobby Kimball, Dan Reed, Jimmi Jamison, Robin Beck and others.
In addition to his musical works, Jean was instrumental in the realization of the Internationally successful Norwegian TV series "LilyHammer" starring Steven Van Zandt. He was recruited in 2014 by "Lilyhammer's" Executive Producer Lasse Hallberg to Executive Produce another "Hit" Television show for SBS Discovery Television Scandinavia, featuring the award winning comedian "Kristian Valen". Beauvoir added an International flavor to the show filming in LA and bringing in guests such as Sharon Stone, William Shatner, Lita Ford, Steven Bauer (Scarface, Ray Donovan and Esai Morales (La Bamba, NYPD Blue).

So many people have jumped on the bandwagon saying how the Vita is dead, the sales are slow there is little 3rd party support and lack of games people want to play. In fact this is so far from the truth, the Vita is alive and well, although there may not have been the initial hype and hysteria when it was released but not every sale has to be done in the first few months of its entry.
A company has a strategy that they employ, Sony has a strategy for the Vita to be the ultimate hand held ever created. The 3DS went through the exact same thing except Nintendo panicked dropped the price and has lost money on every unit they sold the more they sold the more they lost and hope to catch up with software later. Sony refuses to do this and I am glad, first if you remembered the out cry from those Nintendo fans that bought there 3DS before the drop, then they finally released there first party games and boom sales began. Sony is employing a better tactic one similar to apple, let the features and the quality of the unit sell itself, the Vita is worth every cent being asked. It has so much functionality and its still so in the very infancy of its life. Persona has already showed in Japan that once you bring games people want to play they will buy it. The only fair way to really judge is to see what happens after the 2012 holiday season, as the Vita has some serious triple a titles lined up like Assasins Creed 3, Persona Golden, COD, Little Big Planet that has a monstrous following and that really has the potential to sell the Vita as well.
So before all you non believers start building the coffins for the the Vita come back here after the holiday season and we can see wether a funeral is necessary

Sitting by the nice warm fire,
Pondering my greatest desire.
For I do not know why I'm saying this,
But your embrace is the one I miss.
And when I think of the newest emotions,
I start to make strange quotations.
And suddenly they begin to rhyme,
All at once, all in time.
Therefore with this last rhyme,
I know I love you, and it's real this time.

3D printing for the masses?
3D printing for the masses?
Happy 2013!
Although I don't like making predictions, and a single year is usually not enough time to identify significant trends – I'm going out on a limb with a few things that I believe won't change in the coming year. I'll frame it in the DEEPEST context and offer some thoughts about what it might take to bend the trend or even some potential game changers. So without any further ado, here are my predictions of the obvious for 2013:
The Graying of the Workforce will continue as the Baby Boom generation celebrates another birthday. Those Boomers fortunate enough to have kept their jobs through the Great Recession will likely hold on to them for at least another year, even those eligible for retirement. The long-suffering GenX will have to wait still longer for their opportunity to move up the ladder while the GenY Millennials struggle to understand why they have to show up at a particular time and stay all day.
What might change? A sudden surge in the stock market that restores the value of retirement accounts lost in the Great Recession might encourage Boomers to leave the workforce – although because many are still vigorous and healthy, they would likely seek some other form of employment such as part-time or volunteer.
Gasoline prices will continue to be volatile, but swinging within a fairly narrow range between $3 and $4. "Fracking" will drive the price of natural gas a bit lower, but the environmental concerns will begin to emerge more strongly. As a result, there will be some movement away from "dirty" energy such as coal, but no significant new development of new "clean" energy such as wind.
What might change? A crisis in the Middle East involving Iran, Israel, Syria, Egypt or even Saudi Arabia could send oil prices skyrocketing.
In 2013, several areas will experience a drought while others will have flooding. It will be hotter than normal, except where it's colder than normal. Hurricanes will threaten the coast and tornadoes will tear through the midwest. In other words – a normal year. Some experts will blame any unusual weather on global warming, while others will point out that any single weather event can't be attributed to any single cause. There will be no significant pollution or climate legislation passed (see Politics.) 2013 will end up as one of the warmest years on record.
What might change? It is possible that another Katrina or Sandy hitting a major metropolitan area could bring climate change to the forefront, but I see that as unlikely (the conversation, not the weather event.)
The gridlock in Washington will continue unabated. Major political/economic disasters will be avoided (fiscal cliff, default) but just barely. Any agreements between parties will be narrow, short-term and less than necessary, kicking the proverbial can ever farther down the road. Although there may be more open discussion about the need for moderation and bipartisanship, the hard-line, ideological, partisan voices will still dominate, drowning out more moderate voices on both sides of the aisle.
What might change? A failure to reach any agreement on a significant issue could result in real political or economic damage to the US. The popular backlash could be enough to force both parties to engage in true negotiation and compromise. On the other hand, a significant external threat to the country (North Korea? Iran?) might shift the focus away from partisan bickering to uniting for the good of the nation.
The recovery will muddle along, with consumer confidence slowly growing and unemployment slowly shrinking – but nothing anyone will get excited about. The stock market will continue to reflect political rather than economic realities, rising and falling based more on what's happening in Washington or Berlin than in Greenville and Franklin.
What might change? Greece and Spain could implode, sucking the rest of Europe into another recession or depression – with serious implications for the US. Or the Congress could choose to default on the debt (see Politics,) sending the US economy back into recession.
The "culture of celebrity" will continue with everyone from the royal baby to Honey BooBoo receiving front-page coverage. So-called "reality" TV will still make stars out of the worst examples of "ordinary" people and we will still express our distaste for their exploitation – even as we tune in each week.
What might change? Some reality show or celebrity gossip could cross the line either by showing something taboo or causing some tragic event. That might then cause a backlash from the public and a rethinking by the entertainment industry.
The proliferation of handheld devices will continue, with a few challengers to Apple's iDominance. There will be more tablets sold than laptops in 2013 even while the line between tablet and cellphone blurs. More and more people will do business online, and will expect instant access to their own information, instant service, and increasingly, instant delivery. Facebook will continue to grow, although its prominence may recede somewhat due to the growth of other social media such as Pinterest.
What might change? A new "Apple-killer" device or software could come on the market, significantly changing the way people interact with the technology and with each other.
So there you have it! It's pretty easy to predict the future when you expect that tomorrow will be just like today, only more of it.
But we know that's not how it works. TrendSurfing is about taking what's happening now and imaging what it would take to change things, and more importantly what to do to prepare for whatever might happen.
May your 2013 bring you only happy surprises!
I recently got back from Denver where I presented "TrendSurfing: Catching the Waves of the Future" at the ASTD International Conference and Expo. I was also in Tulsa at the Oklahoma SHRM Conference and Albuquerque for theSHRM New Mexico Conference.
I want to thank those of you who chose to attend my presentation! I hope you found it interesting and got something useful out of it. Please drop me a comment with any thoughts and suggestions you might have.
My wife shared a Facebook post with me yesterday. Seems a former co-worker's daughter was turning thirteen. The mom offered to allow the daughter to start a Facebook page (which the parents would monitor.)
Her daughter replied (in what I'm sure was the classic 13-year-old tone:) "Oh Mom, Facebook is for old people!"
I figured this would happen! I found Facebook when my high school graduating class was planning its 30-year reunion and Facebook was the primary mode of information sharing. Once the parents start using some technology, the kids are going to find something else as fast as they can.
So if not Facebook, what social media are "young people" using now? What implications does that have for you and your business?
The New York Times did a story recently on the future of the RIM BlackBerry called "The BlackBerry, Aiming to Avoid the Hall of Fallen Giants." The article lists several products that were once the pinnacle of technology – everybody either had one or wanted on – but were superseded by other disruptive technologies.
For now the iPhone and iPad are the giants. I wonder what's lurking just over the horizon that might make them obsolete?
From the article:
SONY WALKMAN (1979-2010) Before the Walkman, "personal audio" meant holding a transistor radio to your ear. Sony's invention created an entire category of devices and helped make the company the technology leader of the 1980s. New models (Thinner! Auto-reverse!) were eagerly anticipated, the LP was relegated to the attic and tender moments spent listening to mix tapes from that certain someone proliferated across teenage bedrooms. Sony seemed incapable of putting a foot wrong. It successfully moved the brand into compact discs with the Discman, then bought record labels and movie studios to bring about that illusory marriage of technology and content. When the digital revolution hit, Sony was too beholden to its proprietary formats, as well as to the inertia inside its media companies. Enter Apple and the iPod.
PAGERS (BORN 1951) At first, pagers were attached to people who worked in fields where lives were on the line. That usually meant doctors, though the group expanded in the late 1980s to include drug dealers. Early beepers displayed only numbers, giving rise to a numerical lexicon that included codes like 911 (call me back immediately) and 07734, which resembles "hello" when read upside down. Pagers briefly gained fame in early 1990s hip-hop, showing up in songs like "Skypager," by a Tribe Called Quest. The pager's fall was attributable to the disruptive and destructive powers of another technology: the mobile phone. Why beep when you can talk? And a pager message is so tiny that it makes a tweet look like "The Iliad." The beeper does live on, in limited circles: its network remains more reliable than cell networks, making it useful to E.M.S. and other rescue workers.
PALM PILOT (1997-2007) Filofax brought personal organizers to their analog apogee in the early '90s, but Palm brought them into the digital age. Palm Pilots were dazzling when they first appeared: all of your contacts, calendars and notes in one slim, pocket-size device. A touch screen, which required a stylus, made navigation easy. And you could add software, bought through an online store. Want a Zagat guide to go along with your personal data? No problem. In later years, Palm even added telephone features, creating a compelling, all-in-one gadget. Despite boardroom dramas that affected the company's name and its ownership, Palm's reputation as a source of innovative hardware and software endured until Jan. 9, 2007. Why that date? That's when Apple introduced the iPhone.
POLAROID INSTANT CAMERAS (1948-2008) Edwin Land's invention of instant-developing film in 1948 put a darkroom inside a handheld camera. That achievement gave his Polaroid Corporation a distinct advantage over traditional film cameras. By 1980, Polaroid was selling 7.8 million cameras a year in the United States — more than half of all the 15 million cameras, instant and traditional, sold that year. In 1985, it won a major patent-infringement suit, forcing Kodak to abandon its own instant-camera efforts. The victory was short-lived. The late '80s brought the rise of the digital camera. By 2000, digital cameras began appearing on cellphones, placing cameras in millions of pockets. Polaroid declared bankruptcy for the first time in 2001 and stopped making instant film in 2008. Kodak declared bankruptcy on Jan. 19.
ATARI 2600 (1977-c.1984) It wasn't the first game console, but the Atari 2600 brought video games into the home and popular culture. Over its life span, more than 30 million were sold. Pong, Combat, Pitfall and Frogger soaked up children's afternoons. Then came the PC, which could play games and do much more. Atari rushed out games, assuming that its customers would play whatever it released. They didn't. Millions of unsold games and consoles were buried in a New Mexico landfill in 1983. Warner Communications, which bought Atari in 1976 for $28 million, sold it in 1984 for no cash.
So today, rather than a carefully researched, well thought out and polished post, I'm just gonna riff on some thoughts I've had floating around in my brain lately.
This post was spurred by one I stumbled across at The Scholarly Kitchen blog calledWhy E-books Are Turning the Library and Publishing Worlds Upside Down (thank you WordPress!)
After reading that post I got to thinking about the similarities between what happened with the music recording industry with the advent of the mp3 player, file sharing sites, iTunes and cheap digital recording and editing software. At one time, the big players in the recording industry controlled what got recorded, released and promoted. If you wanted your music to reach a wide audience you had to jump through their hoops and play by their rules. They based those decisions on what they thought would sell and what artists would make them the most money.
Now, almost anyone can make a near-professional quality recording, sell it on iTunes and promote it world wide on the web. There is still a recording industry and they still play a role, but it's much more open now. What was once the sole province of "experts" and "professionals" is now available to nearly everybody.
Or consider photography. We heard of the giant of the photo industry, Kodak, declaring bankruptcy. Funny thing is, Kodak was largely responsible for taking photography from the hands of "experts" and "professionals" and putting it in the hands of everybody. Where Kodak missed the boat was its reliance on the physical over the digital. Their business model assumed that a "picture" was something that you could hang on a wall or put in an album. Just as mp3s overwhelmed records and cds, jpegs (and such) overwhelmed film and prints.
So, where does this leave the book publishing industry? If the trend is always toward the digital over physical, then e-books are the wave of the future. I think publishers are catching on, but I don't know if their business models will support the shift. The other trend is shifting production from experts and professionals to the masses. I don't know if the publishing industry is at all ready for this. If the tools for making digital books are readily available and easy to use (InDesign, iBooks Author), and channels exist for making those books available to the public (Amazon, iBooks), and authors are willing to create and use their platforms to promote their work (websites, blogs), then why bother with going through all the hassle to get a book published by one of the big houses?
That's not to say that books as we know them will disappear, or that Random House is going to go bankrupt any time soon. There will always be a market for paper and ink, just as there's still a market for vinyl records and film photography. It's just that the market will be shrinking and becoming a niche rather than the mainstream.
So what else will be impacted by the "physical to digital" and "expert/professional to masses" trends? Will it affect your business? Are you ready?
From Gizmodo:
It's official. A study released by Google yesterday shows that mobile devices, and smart phones in particular, are now the dominant means of Internet connectivity in five key global markets.
Google conducted the study of smart phone versus feature phone ownership rates throughout last year, pulling data from the USA, the UK, France, Germany, and Japan. It found that, while smart phones were were quickly pushing out older feature phones—as you can see above—together, a full 10-percent more people own these connected mobile devices than PC's or laptops (78-percent vs 68-percent). Tablets were counted separately and are owned by an average of 13-percent of people in these markets.
How about you? Have you made the switch to the mobile-only lifestyle? [AdAge via Textually]
Wired Magazine featured a story on "Why the Clean Tech Boom Went Bust" using the Solyndra failure as a case study. A long read, but well worth it, particularly if you believe that "clean and green" energy is just around the corner. I think this paragraph sums up the main point:
Perhaps the biggest force working against not just Solyndra but clean energy in general is this: Because natural gas has gotten so cheap, there is no longer a financial incentive to go with renewables. Technical advances in natural gas extraction from shale—including the controversial practice of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking—have opened up reserves so massive that the US has surpassed Russia as the world's largest natural gas supplier.
Clean Tech isn't going to replace fossil fuels just because it's a good idea and better for the environment. As long as traditional energy is cheaper to produce and use, clean & green will remain on the edges. Large investments in clean tech haven't produced the breakthroughs needed, and fossil fuel prices haven't reached the tipping point where consumers will demand alternatives in profitable numbers.
Do energy prices impact your business? What do you think it will take to make clean & green viable?
From time to time I like to post old predictions or early versions of current technology. This week I bring a look at 2011 – from a 1911 edition of the Ladies' Home Journal. (Hat tip to Richard Watson at toptrends.nowandnext.com!)
What May Happen In The Next Hundred Years
Some of those predictions are almost startling in their accuracy! Well, at least in broad strokes, if not the details.
What jumps out at you?

"Experimental Creations" is a project that focuses on material experimentations and creative processes. In creating objects, it is important to contemplate extra value such as colors and touch, along with the design of physical aesthetics and functionality. Moreover, the design capabilities expand in midst of creative processes involving innovative experimentations of materials, rather than during the design process of physical appearances using existing materials.
In the market of fashion, products and architecture, the innovative manufacturing techniques are being widely discovered through digital tools including 3D software and printers. This year, we present eight works that aim to exhibit the new design expressions by contemplating the characteristics of digital tools.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Do we have to pay US taxes on the investment he brings in to USA.
Yes, a foreign national can invest in a US LLC, unlike an S corp, where he would not be eligible to be a shareholder. Transfer of funds for investment in an LLC or a corp is not a taxable event, so you will not owe taxes on receipt of the funds.
DISCLAIMER—This answer is for informational purposes only under the AVVO system, its terms and conditions. It is not intended as specific legal advice regarding your question. The answer could be different if all the facts were known. This answer does not establish an attorney client relationship. I am admitted only in California. (Bryant) Keith Martin sbbizlaw.com
I agree with the prior attorney. The only thing to add is to clearly document the foreign national's contribution to the LLC and determine what his percentage share of the LLC will be. Make sure your operating agreement and the membership certificates are all reworked accordingly.
Hope this helps. If you think this post was helpful, please check the thumbs up (helpful) tab below and/or designate my answer as best answer. Thanks.

His phone number is 215-735-2336 or his email address is firstname.lastname@example.com , his website is www.sjfpc.com. and his blog is <http://frommtaxes.wordpress.com/> Mr. Fromm is ethically required to state that the response herein is not legal advice and does not create an attorney/ client relationship. Also, there are no recognized legal specialties under Pennsylvania law. Any references to a trust, estate or tax lawyer refer only to the fact that Mr. Fromm limits his practice to these areas of the law. These responses are only in the form of legal education and are intended to only provide general information about the matter within the question. Oftentimes the question does not include significant and important facts and timelines that if known could significantly change the reply or make such reply unsuitable. Mr. Fromm strongly advises the questioner to confer with an attorney in their state in order to ensure proper advice is received. By using this site you understand and agree that there is no attorney client relationship or confidentiality between you and the attorney responding. This site should not be used as a substitute for competent legal advice from a licensed attorney that practices in the subject area in your jurisdiction, who is familiar with your specific facts and all of the circumstances and with whom you have an attorney client relationship. The law changes frequently and varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The information and materials provided are general in nature, and may not apply to a specific factual or legal circumstance described in the question or omitted from the question. Circular 230 Disclaimer - Any information in this comment may not be used to eliminate or reduce penalties by the IRS or any other governmental agency.
As others have said, a foreign national may invest in an LLC. He can also invest in a C corporation, but it appears you intend to use an LLC which often makes sense with foreign investors.
I defer to Stephen as to the definitive word on taxation. However, the federal and state governments tax income. If an investor purchases an interest in a company, there should be no income tax consequences to the investor until the investor sells his interest, since he has received no income.
The LLC will be taxed as a partnership once there are two or more members. Your share of profits or losses will be passed through to you to report on your Form 1040. The taxation of profits or losses to your foreign investor may be addressed by a tax treaty between the U.S. and his country. Here again, I defer to those with tax expertise.
It is always important to have a well crafted operating agreement for an LLC, and I think that is particularly important here. For example, depending on the circumstances, I would be inclined to require the parties to arbitrate any disputes and to arbitrate them in the Greater Philadelphia area. You do not want to litigate abroad, should there ever be a falling out with the investor.
Determining the governance of the LLC is likewise critical. With an LLC, each member has a voice and a vote on virtually all things, unless the operating agreement provides for a managing member or members.
I represent many small to mid-size businesses, some of which are subsidiaries of foreign companies and many of which have foreign investors. If I can answer more questions or be of service, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Republicans Do Know Jack. Maybe a Little Too Well.
Last year, Republicans managed to sucker Bob Woodward into believing that the reason they had gotten frustrated with OMB director Jack Lew during the debt ceiling negotiations was that the guy just wasn't willing to deal. "Jack Lew said no 999,000 times out of a million," Boehner told Woodward. Then he corrected himself. "999,999. It was unbelievable. At one point I told the president, keep him out of here. I don't need somebody who just knows how to say no."
This self-serving fairy tale has entered Washington DC lore, but it's so at odds with Lew's previous reputation that it hardly bears scrutiny. Matt Yglesias knocks it down:
But it emerged over the course of the negotiations that John Boehner and other Republicans kept trying to kick Lew out of the room to make a deal. That's because what Boehner wanted to do was make a deal in which spending cuts would be balanced by flim-flam, and Lew kept saying that the flim-flam didn't work mathematically. To put a balanced package together, Lew insisted that you needed to have real revenue-increasing tax hikes not just "tax reform" and handwaving. This kept spoiling the party, so Boehner wanted to make deals with Daley—with the political fixer rather than the budget guy. But ultimately you couldn't get a deal done, because you can't just smuggle a deal past the OMB.
Pretty much all the evidence suggests that this is exactly what happened. The sticking point in the debt ceiling talks was never Jack Lew, nor was it Barack Obama's supposed aloofness or poor negotiating skills. It was taxes. Full stop. In the end, the deal breaker was twofold: (a) Boehner wanted nothing more than a smoke-and-mirrors tax increase based on dynamic scoring pixie dust, and (b) he balked when Obama tried to increase his tax ask after the Gang of Six announced a bipartisan deficit plan that included $1.2 trillion in increased taxes.
Deficit negotiations between Obama and Boehner have always foundered on taxes, one way or another. The tea party zealots in the House simply won't support tax increases of even a dime, and Boehner can't make them. It's never been clear to me whether Boehner sincerely wants to make deals and just can't get his caucus to agree, or if he's always known that taxes are off the table but is pretty good at spinning reporters into believing that he really tried his best.
In any case, keep this mind when you read about the inevitable Republican kvetching over Lew's nomination as treasury secretary. It's mostly just invented nonsense. They don't like being embarrassed by a guy who keeps trying to drag them back into reality when the subject is budget numbers. That's what this is really about.

You can apply for shared ownership if you can't afford to buy on the open market. We want to help people who are in need of housing and whose income is sufficient to meet the costs of buying through the shared ownership scheme.
People applying for pre-owned shared ownership properties (resales) will normally be first-time buyers who:
- are not able to buy a similar home outright on the property market
- have a gross household income of up to £80,000 per annum when applying to buy property of any size outside of London. For London, have a gross household income of up to £90,000 and
- have at least £4,000 in savings to cover legal fees
- have a deposit towards the purchase of the property (in addition to legal fees)
- preferably live or work in the local authority where the homes are available, however there are occasions where pre-owned shared ownership properties can be sold to people outside the area.
Meeting the costs of home ownership
A recommended income level is provided as a guide for each resale property advertised.
If your earnings are below the recommended level for the property you are interested in but you are able to raise a large deposit, you may still meet the affordability criteria.
You will be required to have your ability to meet the costs of ownership for the property assessed by our independent financial advisors.
You must have been in a permanent job for at least six months or have passed any probation period. If you are self-employed, you'll need to have three years' audited accounts.
It's important you are aware of all the costs associated with buying a property. Visit our Costs of buying page to learn more.
Prioritising applicants for pre-owned shared ownership
If you meet the criteria, we have clear guidelines on how we prioritise applicants. These will be explained when you first enquire about a property.
We will generally offer properties to people in the following order of priority.
- existing social tenants and serving military personnel
- those that will address housing problems in local and regional housing markets as defined by the local authority; and
- other first-time buyers.
Please note the minimum incomes may vary for each scheme.
The information on this website concerning eligibility for pre-owned shared ownership was current and correct when the website was last updated.
Eligibility criteria changes regularly and we make no representations or warranties with respect to the current accuracy of this information.

During the last decade several projects with respect to digital preservation have been funded in Europe by the European Commission and have delivered interesting results. Such projects include community building projects or coordination actions such as ERPANET, Delos2, and Digital Preservation Europe (DPE), but also research projects such as Planets, CASPAR, Shaman, Protage. In December 2009 a new call for digital preservation will be closed, so new projects may start in 2010.
One result of all these projects and all the work done is that there is a growing community involved, more organizations and people are aware of the issues, definitely has enhanced the collaboration amongst institutions and universities in Europe, and with the last research projects some potential practical solutions are emerging that could be applied by institutions. How it all will work out in the end is still one of the big questions. For one thing it may have helped to create a good foundation for further collaboration, perhaps even without funding from the European Commission.
This presentation will provide a brief overview of the main results of some of these projects, especially Planets, and what issues they try to resolve, and a brief outlook on possible future developments.
