This year's end marks some prominent change to commerce in our local economy relative to those of recent history.
This year's end marks some prominent change to commerce in our local economy relative to those of recent history. Countywide sales tax collection appears to have increased 7 percent over the prior year's level. This represents nearly $1.2 million of improved sales tax collections and a reported revenue increase of over $54 million. We project our city will report similar progress with 6.5 percent growth in sales tax collections and revenue.
Real estate sales for our area, which are a key driver of the need for local goods, services, and jobs, are reported to have increased 19 percent over our prior year. Our workforce is returning to work as we are seeing a reduction in our local unemployment rate, and several employers are in a constant search for skilled labor to fill jobs that offer higher wages.
While a plethora of people, organizations, and factors have influenced the positive momentum that we currently enjoy, please know that your Chamber of Commerce has been at the forefront of advocacy for business growth and development, and improvement for the quality of life for our citizens. The chamber's board of directors, staff, and its many supporters, contributors and members have remained focused and committed to specific activity to help us prosper in both the short- and long-term.
Many activities, including our very successful Shop & Dine Henderson County campaign helped educate and remind our citizens of the positive impact for our local economy when we keep our spending local. It is impossible to measure the pure effect of these activities, but the increased local spending I mentioned earlier can certainly be considered a key indicator.
While the contributions to your chamber's success this year are far too numerous to mention here, I'd like to recognize some of its key activities and those who have championed its efforts. These remarkable individuals deserve to be recognized for the contribution of their energy and talent, and you will be interested to know who it is that really gets our work accomplished. Most people will find it interesting to learn just how active this remarkable organization is.
Nicola Barksdale with First Citizens Bank has led our small business committee to offer seminars, events, and recognition to help small businesses stay affluent with the knowledge and resources needed to remain competitive, and improve their bottom lines.
Laura Misner with the College Foundation of North Carolina and Graham Fields with Park Ridge Health have led our many workforce development efforts by working hand-in-hand with local educators and businesses to help prepare our future work force.
Paul Morse with GE has remained a staunch friend to our chamber and served as the liaison of our industrial division to help us understand and meet the needs of our local industrial and manufacturing businesses.
Bill Fishburne of the Hendersonville Board of Realtors has worked with us closely and kept us informed on the progress and factors influencing our critical real estate market.
Don Holder with Four Seasons Financial Services serves as our liaison to the Hendersonville Merchants and Business Association. Don also continues to diligently coordinate one of our signature events to bring us together with local leadership and keep us informed on local issues and successes through Business Morning Update.
Paul Parker with Carolina Information Technology Resource Corporation has been unselfish with his time and talents to insure smooth coordination of our meaningful signature networking event Business After Hours. While the name of the event should suffice to explain its purpose, I'll add that it serves to be paramount to bring together numerous businesses, leaders, and organizations. It is always viewed with high anticipation and a time when productive discussions take place.
Jim Rasmussen of Morrow Insurance Agency has led the formation of our community development task force through which they are helping create our local "brand" and market "Why Henderson County?" to potential businesses and residents.
Steve Dozier of Beverly-Hanks & Associates and Jim Ayers of NewPointe Builders have worked to improve the relationships between local businesses and government leaders to collaboratively design policy to best meet the needs of our community.
Dr. Molly Parkhill, while serving as chair elect, has eloquently begun to lead us towards the development of a long-range strategy to meet the future needs of our business community. This began by conducting focus groups with all of the various types of chamber members. The collected data was then shared with the board at a recent meeting where the formation of specific actions has begun in order to align with the long-range vision.
All of this work could not be accomplished without strong membership and economic resources. Among the many individuals to help ensure what I have long considered the "economic engine" of the chamber are Tiffany Ervin of Elite Repeats Boutique and Garry Sherrill with Cummings Cove Golf and Country Club who again successfully led our Total Resource Campaign to secure sponsorships from generous donors for numerous annual activities.
Vince Rees of Mountain 1st Bank & Trust and Michael Thompson of The Van Winkle Law Firm led us to a successful finale of our two-year effort to fund the debt of the modern iconic chamber office now located at the visible corner of Church Street and Kanuga Road. Vince, Michael, and many concerned contributors worked diligently to create and fund an office of which our community can be proud.
Dave Modaff of Friday Staffing has led our efforts to merchandise the many benefits of being a chamber member in order to attract and maintain a strong level of membership. Staying on track financially has come through the tireless efforts of our Treasurer Fair Waggoner of United Community Bank. Fair has shared her energy and knowledge for two consecutive years. Her positive and energetic spirit has led us through some challenging times, as well as significant accounting, procedural, and systems changes.
Lastly, anchoring every spindle of this hub of activity has been our President Bob Williford and Mitsy Jones, our communications coordinator. If you could only witness first-hand as I have the pleasure, the incredible volume of work they perform for the betterment of and service to our community you too would be awestruck. We are so fortunate to have their support and they have made for me so simple, the otherwise complex job of chairman of the Henderson County Chamber of Commerce.
It is has been my pleasure to serve alongside these remarkable people, and the many others I have failed to mention specifically. As the beneficiary of their efforts and resources, our community continues to become stronger, and an even better place to live. Thank you all.

The Acropolis is probably the most important ancient Greek monument. This 2,500-year-old ruin city dominates Athens from the top of Acropolis Hill. And although the Parthenon Temple with its landmark columns is the most famous monument on the hill, it is only one of the many treasures the Acropolis has to offer. After years of restorations, the palaces, columns and sculptures once again reflect the city's splendour, power and wealth.
The Acropolis is much more than a world-famous monument. It once was a city composed of many buildings but over the centuries it suffered greatly, both at the hands of its enemies and of archaeologists. The Byzantines transformed the temples into churches, the Turkish governor used the Erechtheion sanctuary to house his harem, and 200 years ago the British bought up large quantities of marble sculptures. Fortunately, many structures have since then been restored. Take a stroll through this amazing birthplace of Western civilization.
The Parthenon is the most photographed building on the Acropolis, and its columns are the undisputed symbol of the wealth of ancient Greece. The name means 'the apartment of the Virgin' and was built for Athena Parthenos, the goddess who gave the city its wealth. When you walk around the temple also note the brilliant finish and the sculptures in the pediments on each side of the façade. The marble panels, called metopes, once displayed beautifully painted and gilded historic scenes, such as the demise of Troy. Unfortunately, these colours have been erased over time.
Almost 200 years ago the Greeks began to restore the city on the hill, erasing the traces of later additions to the Acropolis. In 1875, the Tower of Propylaea was demolished, even though the structure had been an Athens landmark for hundreds of years. A few years ago it became clear that not all restorations had been carried out professionally: a lot of the marble crumbled when the metal that was then used began to rust. Today, the metal has been replaced by titanium, the pillars have been straightened and the wall decorations have been cleaned with lasers. The Acropolis is ready for your visit.

The Bothell City Council is a seven-member, policy-making body that governs city government. Each council member has equal decision-making powers and City Council meets three times each month (except August). All Bothell City Council positions are four-year terms. Council member positions are non-partisan, part-time positions.
Bothell celebrated the official start of the construction of Bothell's new City Hall on Wednesday, September 3 at 10 am on the site of the future City Hall, 18305 101st Ave NE, Bothell. The previous City Hall was built in 1938. The city hall is expected to serve Bothell for the next 75 years.
Active public discussions, evaluation and planning for a new City Hall were ongoing for a decade. Located in the heart of Bothell's downtown, the City Hall and multi-use campus is a key element of the City's downtown revitalization plan that has already attracted over $200 million in private investment and is expected to stimulate an additional $450 million in private investment over the coming years.
The city of Bothell is the authority for land use and zoning regulation involving UW Bothell. In July 2014, City Council released an ordinance allowing for food trucks to do business in Bothell. Coordinating with local businesses, the UWB, and food truck vendors, the city created new regulation, removing old city code and adding new rules for how food trucks can operate in Bothell.
Food trucks had already begun serving the campus before the ordinance. However, since the ordinance was set in place, more food trucks have expressed interest in coming to campus as well as serving the rest of Bothell. Read more about the results of the ordinance.

In multiplayer FPS games, to repeatedly crouch on or "hump" the dead body of the person you just killed. Is pretty much pointless, but fun if you want to piss off the other guy.
by Cortana Dragoon July 13, 2005
Someone bobbing up and down a dead body in a FPS and screaming anything from the run of the mill "Oh I fuckin pwned you!" to more interesting, "But why is all the rum gone?? Cuz your sucking dez rocks!!" So have fun with it and taunt the hell out of the n00b you just pwned and let him know what you think of him as your Corpse Humping his lifeless body.
by Jake June 17, 2006
While playing HALO multiplayer, after you kill a member of the other team, proceed to stand over the corpse and click the duck button multiple times. To others it appears that you are humping the corpse which will piss of the person you corpse humped.

do people even listen when he talks? every time he talks about it he talks about what HE went through. he doesn't talk about the horrible things he did to the animals.
AllAmericanPUP wrote:Can people not read simple body language?
have you ever watched the man when he says "he's sorry"?
his statements about being sorry are cold and calculated, he says what his PR agents tell him to say and that is all.
the man is a sociopath. he has no empathy for what he is done and he is certainly not sorry for it he is simply sorry he got caught(as many others have already said).
I think people forget that he didn't simply participate as a spectator in dog fighting. he electrocuted and drowned these dogs. he tortured them!
DemoDick wrote:Really? Her personally tortured them? He drowned and electrocuted these dogs himself? I'm really interested to see any conclusive evidence that would support that claim.

He may not have actually stood there and held the dog's lives in his hands, but IMO facilitating it and participating in it are the same thing - regardless of what the law might say.
It really doesn't make what he did any less wrong just because he watched his friends do everything.
pitbullmamaliz wrote:Actually, I'm pretty sure he did admit to killing 2 or 3 of the dogs himself.
AUGUST 24--Michael 'Ookie' Vick has agreed to plead guilty to a felony charge for his role in the management of a brutal dogfighting ring that was headquartered at a Virginia property owned by the NFL star. Vick, 27, is expected to formally enter his guilty plea Monday in an appearance at U.S. District Court in Richmond. As part of a plea deal, the Atlanta Falcons quarterback admitted that his Bad Newz Kennels operation wagered money--which he provided--in pit bull fights. However, 'Vick did not gamble by placing side bets on any of the fights,' according to a 'summary of the facts' that was filed today in court. That document, a copy of which you'll find below, also notes that Vick 'was aware' that three of his cohorts killed several dogs that performed poorly in test fighting sessions in mid-2002. The summary reports that 'Vick did not kill any dogs at this time.' Earlier this year, Vick, and two cronies 'agreed to the killing of approximately 6-8 dogs' that fared poorly in testing sessions at his Smithfield, Virginia property. Some of the animals were drowned or hanged, and Vick 'stipulated' that the animals died via the 'collected efforts' of himself, and codefendants Quanis Phillips and Purnell Peace. Both Phillips and Peace previously pleaded guilty to federal charges and stated that Vick participated in the execution of eight dogs last April. Vick faces a maximum of five years in prison for his conspiracy conviction. (22 pages)
'DemoDick wrote:Okay, that makes it more serious for me. "Facilitating" this kind of thing a few states away is a lot easier to rationalize when you don't have to see the ugliness of it up close and personal (out of sight, out of mind). But to kill dogs by hanging or drowning, when there are more humane ways to do it (hell, a bullet in the head is kinder), is just plain sick. There's some damaged goods for you.
The Philadelphia Eagles released Damon Moore after he abandoned a three month old Rottweiler puppy in a field. They traced the dog to Moore via a microchip implanted by the store that sold the dog.
In 2001, Eagles running back Thomas Hamner was cut after his second instance of being nailed with animal cruelty charges. Not once, but twice, he beat his pit bull nearly to death.

For a good balance between firepower and felt recoil, a 3 inch Magnum load with 1 1/4 oz.

Surface detractions are negligible to minimal on this shotgun, as its photos show. We rate it as Excellent, perhaps Near Mint, but photos ought to suffice for our distinguished shoppers to judge finish grade for themselves. Often a person can spot the letter U stamped on the left side of the receiver above the serial number. Bore, chamber, and mechanism are all bright and clean.

We have even outfitted it with a matching trench type heat shield. If this shotgun was test fired, it was fewer than 20 times. In its tubed form, replacement pricing is $540 on mossberg com. We're offering the exact shotgun in the photos for only $ 289.00. Buyers must be at least 21 Years of Age; the Cruiser grip gives this shotgun Other Weapon status on the 4473 form.

"Roman Catholic Bishop Thomas John Paprocki says that any Catholic who votes for a Democrat very well may go to Hell, because a vote for any member of a party that supports sin makes the voter 'morally complicit.' Paprocki names the Log Cabin Republicans and 'pro-choice' (scare quotes his) Republicans as 'equally as wrong as their Democratic counterparts.'"
Then why are only Democratic voters going to hell? Besides, the claim cannot be true: they will only go to Purgatory, a place invented so that Roman Catholic priests in Mexico from Cortez to Calles could unburden the serfs (indigenous people) of their hard-earned centavos. Hitchens discusses indulgences in god is Not Great. Why would a good and all-powerful god put your loved ones in a special cyberspace where they must remain until the guy in a black suit and a little white collar takes your money to download them into God's hard drive?
And speaking of moral complicity, why do many thousands flock to the cathedrals each Sunday putting money in a plate so that child molesters would be given new parishes upon the discovery they have porked some acolyte or choir boy and, O.J.-like, forced civil litigation to redress grievances. If the coffers are running on empty it is because of the pay-outs to hopelessly-damaged young men who, if they remember the obscenities at all, feel lost in some horror movie. The current occupant of Castel Gondalfo knew all about the pedophile priests and did nothing to stop it. He had a U.S.-Vatican treaty to hide behind and he covered up lies and secrets and is thus guilty of obstruction of justice.
Since when is there an exception to laws making it a criminal act to not refer a matter to the Child Protective Services allowing priests a waiver?

No, he would just say, "Verily, I say unto you, between a sorry jackass and a fat pachyderm, choose the lesser of the two evils."
Yeah. Then he'd go and kill a tree because it wasn't bearing fruit out of season, chew out his mother in public, infect some innocent and harmless swine with "demons," and deny a poor woman's daughter help because she wasn't jewish. What a f&*#ing sport!!
And let's not mention pulling up people who don't want to be rule by him to be slain before him. Oops, sorry, mentioned it. My bad!
BTW, don't believe me? Look up Luke 19:27...
So I looked for a site on the context of the verse and it said this, "...verse 27 is talking about executing those who commit treason, which is a reasonable punishment for an attempt to overthrow a legitimate government."
I'll look for more...
On a forum (Muslim/Christian debate, I assume) a poster says, "This parable is a lesson in what we are expected to do with the gifts that God gives us. Simply summarized, we can hide or ignore them and suffer the consequences, or use them and multiply them and be rewarded."
I'm putting this up here so we are aware of the apologetics linked with the verse you pointed us to.
I think their explanations are lacking, however. In the first case, it falls flat in that we don't know if the government in the parable is legitimate or not. How do we determine whether or not a government is legit? If you look at the US, our government was born from rebellion. Does that make it illegitimate? Also, there are many of us who are split on what constitutes treason these days. For the second case, it's really obnoxious in my opinion, to assume that people know their gifts or even have the chance to build on them. How many of us know how to sing and are given the spotlight and manage to be there on stage when a talent scout is in the audience? Really? What about the people who don't hear about god or have other gods? What about them?
How else would you take apart these rebuttals, guys? I'm just curious... I'm unused to debating so I'd like to learn from y'all.
You have never led me astray so far and I believe you now! Here it is!
Jesus Preached PEACE or JIHAD
Jeez! It is getting to late for this kind of reading!
One of the problems with all wars is that man engages in what we now euphemistically call ethnic cleansing, eschewing the more disturbing genocide. When Hitler threatened Croatia at the outbreak of WWII in the Balkans, a fascist element, the Ustasha, took over, promptly slaughtering every Serb in sight. In their defense, age-old rivalries had in even moderate minds "justified" the slaughter, since the means are not important, only the ends. (Of course the central problem with ethic atrocities is that they are self-perpetuating in futuro, endlessly.) Now, guess what lay at the heart of the takeover of Croatia by the local Hitler, Ante Pavelic? Well, let's start with the fact that Serbs are mostly Eastern Orthodox, while Croatians are primarily Roman Catholic. Tell ME these wars are not religious wars. I have photos of Pavelic and his henchman, Artukovic, hamming it up at meetings with the clergy.
BTW, Joan, there are some problems with equating those words of Christ with Nazis and the Holocaust.
James, I didn't choose this photo because of the Holocaust, I looked for photos of genocides and this one popped up with Luke 19:27 on it. The idea I intend to convey is that one group of people slaughtering another group for whatever reason is a restatement of Jesus' call to bring to him any who would deny him. It is the kind of thinking that said, "Jesus did it and it is OK for us to do it."
We have the same phenomena with wife and child abuse, the bible says it was OK for biblical people and it is OK for us, even to the point of death. Sadly, in the case of modern assaults, we are only beginning to come out from under that cruel dogma.
How would you demonstrate what I am trying to convey? I appreciate you pointing out the problem my illustration creats. The issue, it seems to me, is an attitude of "entitlement". They are entitled to do .... even if in modern terms it is legally assault.
It isn't too hard to expose collaboration of the Roman Catholic church with Hitler and Nazis. If the Pope believed the Holocaust was appropriate, it is not all that much different in principle, if not in effect, for Bishop Paprocki to believe those who vote for Democrats may go to Hell. They are both political statements that prevent "other" from flourishing.
How is my reasoning not sound?
James, there has to be a better way to organize society than the capitalistic/consumer one we labor under. Got any ideas?
None, other than some version of socialism. In Europe, they seem to do quite well with government partnerships with business. I think that is the secret. But the GOP says "European socialism" is "Communistic Nazism."
Yes, there we go, the unacceptable notion of socialism. Any thinking person knows that is not the same as communism. The thought of the Russian people struggling to get decent working conditions and wages, and the people who worked for Carnegie being shot down like invading wolves, or the miners of my part of the country trying to get safety improvements and better wages, and we still fight that ancient battle of those who own capital, who are few, and those who own labor, who are many, can't seem to find a balance where all parts of a culture flourishes.
Again, I remember the great expositions after WWII and the movies that came out showing all the ways people would work fewer hours and make a living wage. There would be homes and chickens in pots, and shiny new cars and all kinds of electrical appliances to make homemaking drudgery easier. It was just a pipe-dream cooked up to dazzle workers to work hard and they, too would prosper. Well, there is a whole lot more to prospering than working hard.
Arrogance, hubris, control, domination, exploitation, these are the things I read when I read Luke 19:27

text: My Aunt purchased an HP computer with Windows 7 a couple years ago. Back in March her HDD crashed, just after her warranty expired, of course. I can easily add a new HDD with a certified copy of Windows 7. I found the location of the cage holding the bad HDD. It was right behind the underside of the Motherboard 🤔 Is there another way to mount the new HDD in the case without using the "cage" ?

I enjoy popcorn. I prefer air popped popcorn with a little butter and salt to microwave popcorn. When I am in a hurry I will often make a bag of microwave popcorn but the artificial flavors and coloring can turn me off from that option. I have begun popping my own microwave popcorn in a paper bag.
It is quick, easy, and a healthy popcorn option.
To make popcorn or Kettle corn in the microwave you will need:
- 1/4 to 1/3 cup pop corn kernels
- non-stick cooking spray or a dash of olive oil
- sugar
- salt
- 1 paper lunch bag
Spray your popcorn kernels with cooking spray (usually 1 pump will do). Stir the kernels to coat evenly. Pour your kernels into the paper bag. Add teaspoon of sugar (you can add more or less depending on how sweet you want the popcorn). Add salt to taste (usually 1/2 teaspoon). Close the paperbag and fold the top over two times. Shake the bag several times to coat the kernels with the sugar and salt. Lay the Bag on its side in the microwave and cook it for 1 minute 30 seconds or until the popcorn popping slows down.
Take the bag out of the microwave, shake it, open and enjoy tasty popcorn that costs only pennies per serving and does not have any of the artificial flavorings or coloring.

DELAND, Fla. (Nov. 2, 2008) - The ETSU men's soccer team dropped its final conference match of the season to Stetson Sunday afternoon at the Stetson Soccer Complex in DeLand, Fla., 4-1.
The Hatters took a 1-0 lead in the 20th minute as Kirk Labusch netted the cross from Gonzalo de Mujica. Stetson added another goal in the 28th minute when de Mujica and Kevin Munz combined to find Richard Porteous, who then fired a shot from 20 yards out into the back of the net to go up 2-0.
Munz and de Mujica combined again to find Fredrik Brustad on a counter-attack breakaway, as Brustad beat the ETSU keeper to increase the Hatter lead to 3-0 in the 33rd minute. The Bucs took three shots in the period, but were unable to get on the board as the score remained 3-0 Stetson at the half.
In the 52nd minute, de Mujica netted a goal of his own, as he flicked a pass from Jack Johnson past the ETSU keeper into the goal to increase the Hatter lead to 4-0.
ETSU got on the board in the 68th minute as Blake Pelton (
Stetson outshot the Bucs (5-10-1, 1-7-1) 19-9 and had the advantage in corners 7-5. James Holt (
The Bucs are back in action on Nov. 8 at noon as they are set to host Radford at Summers-Taylor Stadium. Please visit www.ETSUBucs.com for more information on ETSU men's soccer or any other Buccaneer athletic team.

Diet, Parental Behavior and Preschool Can Boost Children's IQ
Supplementing children's diets with fish oil, enrolling them in quality preschool, and engaging them in interactive reading all turn out to be effective ways to raise a young child's intelligence, according to a new report published in Perspectives on Psychological Science...
Using ... meta-analysis, a team ... at ...NYU ... combined the findings from existing studies... ... analyzed the best available studies involving samples of children from birth and kindergarten from their newly assembled "Database of Raising Intelligence."
Supplementing pregnant women and newborns with long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, foods rich in Omega-3, were found to boost children's IQ by more than 3.5 points. These essential fatty acids may help raise intelligence by providing the building blocks for nerve cell development that the body cannot produce on its own.
There is insufficient research, however, to determine whether other types of supplements -- including iron, B-complex vitamins, riboflavin, thiamine, niacin, and zinc -- have beneficial effects on intelligence.
Enrolling an economically disadvantaged child into an early education intervention was found to raise his or her IQ by more than four points; interventions that specifically included a center-based education component raised a child's IQ by more than seven points.
Surprisingly, Protzko, Aronson, and Blair found no evidence to support the idea that early education interventions that take place earlier in childhood are more effective than those that begin later.
Interventions focused on interactive reading -- teaching parents how to engage their children while reading with them -- were found to raise children's IQ by over 6 points. These interventions do not seem to have an effect for children over 4 years old, suggesting that the interventions may accelerate language development, which, in turn, boosts IQ.
Sending a child to preschool was found to raise his or her IQ by more than four points, and preschools that include a language development component were found to boost IQ by more than seven points. [emphasis mine]

Windows Phone may have more market share than iPhone... in China

Microsoft being too optimistic
2. Lucas777 (Posts: 2137; Member since: 06 Jan 2011)
i wouldnt be too surprised if the numbers were closer to what microsoft is saying... i dont think china appeals to the mass high end market like the US does.. and apple does not have their lower tiered phones there, so it makes sense
3. Whodaboss (Posts: 176; Member since: 18 Nov 2011)
"Windows Phone is starting to gain traction, just not in the US".
If you're going to write such an inane comment, why don't you also, state that Sprint and Verizon (the biggest network) aren't really supporting WP and maybe, just maybe, that may have a bearing on the lack of sales in the US. Stop giving half baked statements without the full picture. But then again I could be the one (most likely) totally off base.
7. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2731; Member since: 26 May 2011)
It's a statement of fact, and a pretty generous one given the WP market share in the US.
The point of the article are the worldwide numbers. The reasoning behind the US numbers can be found in other articles. It's called staying on topic.
8. GellerDoesDallas (Posts: 50; Member since: 26 Mar 2012)
Micheal are the 3gs and iphone 4 available in china?
13. Glim12808 (Posts: 394; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
Yes, the iPhone is available in China but only the rich Chinese people can afford to buy it. Perhaps that's one reason why WP is outselling iOS.
When the cheap Samsung Windows Phone Minuet and cheap ZTE Windows Phone Orbit hit China, WP sales will still improve further.
22. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
When you are in China "doing well" making 2-3 an hour in american, yet the iphone still costs 600+ in american, there are very few that can afford it.
WP7 has a huge advantage price wise in china since most people will never own an iphone. Thats why its still a real "status" symbol there.. because you have to be pretty well off to have $600 to blow.
24. Whodaboss (Posts: 176; Member since: 18 Nov 2011)
Again, don't get it twisted. Like most of these articles about WP there always seem to be some snide comment about the OS. My point again, which I do believe is FACT as you put it. If Verizon the largest network and Sprint would support WP I believe WP would be doing much better in the US.
The writer of this article decided to point out the WP wasn't doing well in the US and I pointed out that if they are going to write such critiques they should tell the full reasons and not make it seem as though it's all MS's fault.
No, duh I did read the article and I did realize it was about the world wide numbers. Again, my issue with these types of articles they always have to try to put down WP. Would this article be any less readable if that comment was left out about the US? In my opinion - No. But for some reasons most of these writers have some notion to always try to provide some negative aspect to WP.

"Hey, we're outselling the iphone by 1%! Pay no attention to the Android elephant in the room!"

Spoil sport.....

The same goes for Russia, according to this :http://wmpoweruser.com/windows-phone-devices-outselling-iphones-in-russia/ . I can only hope this trend continues, Windows Phone is quite good from what I've seen and I'd like for it to make a bigger splash, competition fosters innovation, more consumer choices and all that.
19. sprockkets (Posts: 1612; Member since: 16 Jan 2012)
But that same link shows the ancient n8 outselling everyone!

This is just the start , once wp8 comes out , alone with windows 8 ,and tables is goint to be great ,posted from my white lumia 900 . fuc..... All androids haters .
10. Android2627 (Posts: 28; Member since: 03 Mar 2012)
Being an Android Fan have & s2 & Note Last week i Bought Lumia 800 (as 900 is not available in My country) in last 9 days of use i Found it as the Smooth as Not a Single Smart Phone Before so i Would advice ios Geeks Jut Buy it once and u Would Forget IOS Seriously Though i prefer Android For Customization But for Smoothness and Stability is only on Windows phone... Really SMOOTH Sorry For off topic but it is on my personal preference...
20. profperez1 (Posts: 75; Member since: 08 May 2012)
I have to agree with you. I have used all of those phones as well. WM beats them all. I'm not sure what the big deal is about customization. I have done that on Android(s) and the further you get away from the pure GUI the more problems you have.
11. snowgator (Posts: 3614; Member since: 19 Jan 2011)
Okay, gang, before I post the following statement and link, I know that WP is not soaring to expectations. I realize that the slow growth is truly SLOW growth, and that for the investment Microsoft has poured into their OS, one would hope a better showing for WP Mango devices.
This is not the first place I have heard that WP is doing really well in a short time in China. WP has moved up from basic below 2% into the 3% - 6% range in the US in a year. There is good evidence that not only the Nokia 900 but the Titan 2 are both selling well. (Okay, the 900 is selling well, the T2 is selling okay. Leave me alone, It's my post.) And this link is a serious step ahead in the moral victory department:
According to these numbers, WP7 is outselling BB7 devices. Understand, this is not current handset users, of which BlackBerry is still quit a bit ahead. This is simply NEW handsets sold. Of course, this is much more a testament to how far RIM has fallen than any surge by WP, but it really shows that WP is gaining traction.
If Verizon and Sprint had been sold on getting a decent WP Mango device on each of their network, I really think that we would see it pushing really decent numbers. All of the Trophy and Arrive owners rate their devices really high, and good word of mouth is starting to pay off. But, with only the 2nd and 4th largest carriers giving Nokia's and WP's the time of day, these slow growth numbers may be the best they can do.
But, positive is positive, and we will take what we can get....
16. Anthony_Gonzalves (Posts: 46; Member since: 11 May 2012)
I dont why...but I like you dude :)
Anyways the numbers will only improve with the arrival of windows phone 8...
21. snowgator (Posts: 3614; Member since: 19 Jan 2011)
Why, thank ya A.G. I do my humble best!!
Seriously, I am really excited for WP8 phones. I am still holding out hope for that 10% of marketshare by years end. It may be only for the last quarter, but I think it could happen by all the upwards trends in sales.
23. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
Solid post SG :)
14. Anthony_Gonzalves (Posts: 46; Member since: 11 May 2012)
If it would have been Victor H, then he would still rant about the 2% market share of windows phone...
15. akbar (Posts: 62; Member since: 09 Feb 2012)
This is the best "creative statistic"/BS I have seen for some time. I live in China and the iPhones here are everywhere. This is a status symbol so everybody is trying to have one. The only WP I have seen here is in the hands of my Finish colleagues :) WP does not have the cool status. The persons who can not afford the iPhone, or simply know that it is not good value for the money choose local/Samsung Android devices. And that is for new smart phone buyers. Heck here Symbian is still going strong and E71 is still being sold and used massively.
18. ZEUS.the.thunder.god (unregistered)
i call your post BS. if iphone is everywhere then where is its market share. and if we look at the global market share, by your IQ most of the people cant afford an iphone so they buy android.
"WP doesnt have the cool status". this tells a lot about you. so think about yourself before calling others BS. btw i am an android fan.
26. Victor.H (Posts: 966; Member since: 27 May 2011)
I call bulls**t on WP outselling iPhones as well. As Michael has rightly pointed out, the only source of the news is a non-Chinese website allegedly quoting a Microsoft executive. 'Nuf said.
