Now that SXSW is over, here was, for sure, my favorite part
It involved a SXSW darling, in the year without darling apps.
Foursquare is a location-based check-ins application that launched in 2009 at South by Southwest Interactive. Co-founders Dennis Crowley and Naveen Selvadurai started working on Foursquare in Crowley's East Village apartment in 2008. The app has more than20 million users who have checked in more than 2 billion times. The platform has evolved since its debut, incorporating restaurant menus, reviews, promoted specials and deals.
Foursquare's HQ is located in New York City's SoHo neighborhood. The company also has offices in San Francisco and London. Selvadurai announced his departure from Foursquare in March 2012 to pursue other projects but said in a blog post that he will remain as an advisor and continue being "the single most vocal user."
It involved a SXSW darling, in the year without darling apps.
This is so South by.
A few lines of code is helping Foursquare build its enterprise empire.
U.S. retailers should see a 3.5 percent drop in foot traffic from last year, according to Foursquare.
Snapchat is stepping up its location targeting.
The app is checking in some here new.
Maybe politics isn't good for the business.
You can browse tweet feeds from precise locations with this new feature.
Foursquare is once again reviving a feature from its old check-in app and bringing it to Swarm.
Uber's app will soon be a lot better at finding your destination.
Foursquare is once again trying its hand at personalized restaurant recommendations.
Foursquare has a new CEO, a new found of funding and a new data-centric focus.
Mayorships are back, yo!
For Foursquare CEO Dennis Crowley, his original vision for the location-based service is finally becoming a reality. But what's next?
Almost exactly a year after announcing it was splitting its app in two, Foursquare appears to be walking back some of the less popular changes made when it introduced its new app for check-ins, Swarm. The company updated Swarm on Monday with new feat...
"If an employee hasn't left, it is mostly because they haven't found the right next gig."
The new deal will tap into Foursquare's extensive database of landmarks, businesses and other venues to make those tags more specific and informative.
Foursquare users, your long wait for an iPad app is finally over.
Foursquare is coming to the iPad. And no, this isn't 2010.
Foursquare has launched its first ad campaign.
Swarm check-ins just got easier.
Time to hit up the farmers market because October is Vegetarian Awareness Month.
Swarm just got a little more like the old Foursquare.
Love it or hate it, Windows Phone users can now use Foursquare's new check-in app, Swarm.
Foursquare 8.0 successfully reinvents the app as a recommendation service, although mastering it requires patience and a willingness to explore.
Your Swarm app complaints have been heard.
The Foursquare check-in has been relegated to Swarm, but the transition to Swarm has not been an easy one for Foursquare's base.
Foursquare continues its attempt to pivot into Yelp. Next up, a check-in free app and a new logo.
Foursquare is more than just checking-in and earning special badges. Here's a list of six other uses of Foursquare that you may have never considered.
Careful, your negative restaurant reviews might get you into trouble in France.
Less than a month after splitting its signature app in two, multiple Foursquare executives, including COO Evan Cohen, are also splitting from the company.
We take Foursquare's Swarm for a test drive.
As promised, Foursquare's new app, called Swarm has arrived. The app went live in the iOS App Store and Google Play Thursday morning.

Has Apple lost all sense of design? They ruined their perfectly clean-looking Web site by cluttering it with leopard spots and brushed metal. As for this photo of the alleged new G4 caseI pray it's a hoax. I would never put that ugly thing in my house, much less want it on my desk at work. Is that a safety deposit box built into the front of it? Powerful or not, half of being a Mac user is about style. I think Steve Jobs has finally gone insane. That he would try to charge us for the party favors known as iTools is proof enough. As if we don't have enough expenses from our ISPs and Web hosting companies.
You really didn't have to make a whole thread for this. You could have posted in the PM case thread or the MWNY whining thread.
Which is the main reason I DON'T want vertically mounted hard drives. I severely hope that the stuff that has been getting put up is all from a failed prototype that has NOT gone into production. I for one, wouldn't purchase that thing... it's that simple. I just hope that if it does come out, that Apple wakes up and changes it within a year to something more visually pleasing (and smarter). Just my $20 worth.
Why does it matter if there are 2 vertically mounted drives? There are to horizontal drives according to that report and the other two would be vertical for space reasons so you would put your primary drives in the horizontal bays and only put lesser used drives in the vertical slots. Me, I am one of the "normal" people who has no use for more than 2 drives anyway.
I never claimed to be normal. I don't like the idea of the drives being held in by a single screw and/or some plastic thingy. I am one of the people that tends to increase my hard drive count as time progresses. I had four drives in my last G4 before selling it (two ATA and two SCSI). Also, who's to say that Apple won't set the hard drive ATA ribbon to go to the vertical drives first?? While there are some drives mounted on their side, they are not mounted so that the ribbon is pointing either up or down. They are on their side (90° twist from 100% horizontal, with the connections at the back). There are reasons for the drives being mounted this way... Until Apple releases the RAID array to go along with the Xserve, all other server RAID racks have the drives as I note above. Even then, those drives are SCSI, which doesn't have any issues with being mounted on one of it's sides. From the drawings that were posted, everything inside the case is way too crammed in there. Without a healthy air flow inside the case, it will get too hot, too fast, and damage the components. Again, I seriously hope that the images and such that are being placed online are just one design that didn't make the cut. IF that is what is coming, then I won't be purchasing it. Too many changes, and not for the better (in my not so humble opinion ).
well, the case isn't the best thing I've seen from Apple, but if it comes time for me to get a new machine, I'll buy what ever they have - provided it doesn't have problems with heat. I'm with you there Alpha - that's one hot configuration, but maybe there's something going on that we don't know about for the cooling. I think its more of a wait and see - and I personally hope and think that this case is a defunct prototype. D
Aye duke, we want a computer, not a new 'easy bake' oven or a space heater. To date, Apple has done everything possible to keep the hard drives horizontal, laying flat. Why make a radical shift from that now?? Especially in a case that places the optical drives in the middle of the front?? That alone won't fly. Think about it, how many people place their towers under the desk?? Now those people will have to stretch even more to put a disc into the drive. There are also people that place items in front of their computer. At present, the optical drive tray clears such devices, but if you lower them, they will bang into those items.
first everybody is complaining about the power macs being too slow, now you are complaining that it will be too fast? I don't get it
ah, twit, definitely a word of the month. I was just thinking about the vertical drives and heat - by placing that way airflow goes up and around and the one drive doesn't cover another, so it might in some way aid in reducing the large amounts of heat the thing will generate. They are close to the vents in the front. I'd love to interview the engineers who designed the damn thing - and I hate going through all the speculation, knowing the answers may never be known. D
It's fugly, it's late, and it's not going to sell. People are waiting for apple to pull it's head out of it's ash and put out a ground breaking professional machine. This ain't it. G5's better come soon with some innovative technology and significant speed increases. Apple has just pulled a Gates type move with the unfriendly to user policies at MWNY, and professional users are mad with good reason. This current trend from apple is disturbing to say the least and this machine produced as filler until something significant comes is as the rest of apples blunders at MWNY, major disappointment!
lighten up a bit - all of its still speculation until we actually see it on stage with steve, ok? there's a whole thread for whining, you might want to go post over there oh, and welcome to MacRumors zoozx
whoohoo, no more whinning! Don't care about the box, but I think its a crappy picture anyway, as it looks white but is supposedly silver. Is it possiblr that apple might be moving to some type of different drive for the vertical ones? On board SCSI (hey, my Mac Plus had it)
I'm surprized that ... I'm surprized that few have really commented about that monster heat sink. Sure, it might be what the G5 needs, but might it not also be somewhere around what a P4 would need?? -hh
Do you want to pay the extra money to have onboard SCSI??? Besides, there are not SCSI ports on the motherboards any longer (all ATA/IDE now), so that would entail a SCSI card, chewing up one of the PCI slots. Never mind the fact that ATA drives are larger (GB) then SCSI for the same price range. You can get a 160GB ATA drive for under $300... how large of a SCSI drive can you get for that?? Something at least close to the speed of ATA133 too.
hoax This "leaked" case is a hoax...and a ploy. Apple wouldn't build something like that after what they did with the imac. It's probably one of those 6 prototypes that were rumored to be floating around.
Re: New G4 Box ? You B*STARD!! How dare you insult his Steveness! iTools is useless anyway (for me at least) my cableservice costs only $30 a month and generally speaking- web hosting is no huge dent in anyones pocket who uses a mac
The "G5" is already out for the embedded market. Apple's next chip probably won't carry the "G5" label since Moto already uses it for other purposes.
Any speculation on what they will call it then?? Maybe the GX (GeX the Generation eX processor ) Well Chitman???
Don't you mean Generation X processor? I don't care what they call it. They could call it "Fetid Pile of Steaming Skit" and I'd still buy it (providing it was fast enough. )

You're all totally true. I really agree with you. I would add that "followers" are (normally, except for fake profiles...) persons. And persons MUST be respected. I agree too with you, Sigrid, concerning the fact that influence could be better mesured by interactions. Thx a lot for your reactions. It's very kind from you! Have a great week.

The Success of Small business these days is rightly measured upon how they look at their business and what steps they take to make it a high pitch volume sales all through the day. However, one of the most particular reason why lot of small business are succeeding, its because of the fact that they are concentrating lot on social media these days. Following are some data to prove our fact that how today's business are concentrating more on social media than anything else which is not just essential but also a proven technique as a marketing strategy. While even though Facebook rank above all Social Networks in the country, but still people prefer Twitter and Linkedin over Facebook for quick and continuous growth when it comes to marketing perspective.

What do you use as your daily Social Media dashboard every day?
Yet, in recent months, there were a great number of browser extensions released, specifically for Twitter.com. They help you create a much greater experience right inside Twitter.com. What I like best about this is that you are in charge regarding how many bells and whistles you are adding. You can basically fully customize your own Social Media dashboard. So here are my top 5 finds you can use to make Twitter.com a truly powerful Social Media tool for you:... Read more: http://bit.ly/IjmxO3 Via Martin Gysler |
I selected this piece by Matt Ridings from SideraWorks because we all talk about social business but what is it, why should we care, how do we measure it and why is it important for our business? This piece along with a slideshare answers some of these questions and gives you a mindset and framework to work with. Here are some highlights: What is Social Business? **The answer differs if you're describing the purpose, the processes or the outcomes - Depending on your point of view as the customer, the employee or a partner - the answer can differ even more Here is a definition of social business: Social busines is the creation of an organization that is optimized to benefit the entire ecosystem. Customers, employees, partners, owners by embedding collaboration and active engagment into its operations and culture. The result is a more responsive, adaptable, effective and untimately more successful company. Here are some of the challenges: **How do we develop a common vocabulary and context so] that all parties have a clear understanding of what it is they're trying to achieve or become? **How to 'audit' something like culture to the degree that you can provide a meaningful representationn of its curfrent attributes at individual, group anad organization - wide levels? **How do you represent the objective in a way that is easily understood in relation to the audit?

Content marketing can be an extremely complicated, time-consuming, and expensive proposition! So I came up with content options for the time-starved! Let's face it. Content development can be a complicated, time-consuming, and expensive proposition! So I started thinking about this in the context of my friends and small business customers who simply can't afford that kind of effort. It led to this idea: micro-content, or creating small bits of marketing content when you don't have time to blog, create videos or spend all day on Facebook. Let's examine ideas about using micro-content for your social media strategy, assuming you are testing the water and only have 15 minutes a day to devote to this activity. Hey, I'm up for a challenge! Preparation Like any marketing initiative, you must have a firm idea of your strategy, selling points, and target audience...

Well actually I see it in another way: probably in a few years Intel will have an absolute monopoly in the X86 arena. If they would be the only manufacturer of the CPU and chipset they would stand to make a shitload of money without caring for their brand as people wouldn't really have any choice.

UNWTO News 56
Release Date:
25 Oct 16 The World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) and the Government of the Arab Republic of Egypt are organizing the 5th Global Summit on City Tourism: "Cities: Local Culture for Global Travellers" on 1-2 November 2016 in Luxor. During the summit, UNWTO will launch the Mayors for Tourism Initiative.
In the context of FITUR 2017, the 8th Tourism Investment and Business Forum for Africa will be held with a new format designed to promote participation in discussions that produce ideas on how to increase the potential of African tourism at the regional and global levels. It features two round tables on the themes "Technology and the design of new tourism products" and "Skills development, youth and woman employment in tourism".
The 38th Plenary Session of the UNWTO Affiliate Members took place in Yerevan, Armenia between 1 and 4 October. The meeting discussed the latest tourism trends, public-private collaboration and promoting good practices in the sector. The event was held in parallel with the 43rd UNWTO Affiliate Members Board meeting, which adopted the Affiliate Members 2017 Action Plan.
International tourist arrivals worldwide grew by 4% between January and June 2016 compared to the same period last year. Destinations worldwide received 561 million international tourists (overnight visitors), 21 million more than in 2015, according to the latest UNWTO World Tourism Barometer.
About 500 delegates from 60 countries have convened in Bangkok, Thailand, to take part in the Official Celebrations of the World Tourism Day this year dedicated to the theme 'Tourism for all: Promoting Universal Accessibility.' Policy frameworks, capacity building, business strategies and awareness raising have been some of the areas tackled during the week of events that commenced on the 26th September with a 'Tourism and the Media' Session.
UNWTO has launched a project in north-eastern Cambodia for the promotion of environmental conservation and community-based ecotourism (CBET) initiatives. The project is being implemented in collaboration with local environmental NGO Mlup Baitong, and with the contribution of the EuropaMundo Foundation. The project aims to build the capacities of local authorities and community members, particularly women, to enable them to manage community-based ecotourism self-sufficiently and sustainably.
Activities during the first few months included community mobilization and capacity-building for local tourism authorities and tourism service providers. In each of the selected CBET sites (Preah Rumkel and Borey Osvay), inception meetings were conducted to inform the community about the project objectives and activities and ensure its full participation and ownership. A total of 88 people participated in these meetings, of whom 53 were female.
The "UNWTO/GTERC Asia Tourism Trends 2016 Edition", the third annual report in the series, highlights the rapidly growing tourism sector of Asia and the Pacific. The sector reflects the socio-economic standing of a region whose GDP has been growing much faster than the world's average. This has led to the emergence of a robust middle class who possess more disposable income to spend on travel. Allied to the ICT revolution, new groups of travellers have emerged, the "consumer class" and the technology-savvy "millennials", with their own characteristics that form the essence of the second chapter of this study. Tourism in Asia and the Pacific calls for reciprocal investment in infrastructure and human capital development to sustain the growth that is elaborated in the third section. The final chapter gives a summary of the annual agenda of activities of the Regional Programme for Asia and the Pacific.
The United Nations 70th General Assembly has designated 2017 as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development (A/RES/70/193).
This is a unique opportunity to raise awareness on the contribution of sustainable tourism to development among public and private sector decision-makers and the public, while mobilizing all stakeholders to work together in making tourism a catalyst for positive change.
Join us in celebrating 2017 as the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development!

Foster + Partners has won an international competition to design the first Four Seasons Hotel in Scandinavia set within Copenhagens historic Tivoli Gardens. The project is a luxury, sustainable development of hotel accommodation and condominiums, providing a new landmark for the city while forging a dialogue with the celebrated 19-century amusement park and gardens. A contemporary architectural intervention on an historic site, it represents a fine balance between celebrating the strengths and culture of Copenhagens distinctive urban grain, while creating a new building that has presence and integrity.
Driven by a careful urban strategy concerned with the preservation of Copenhagens low skyline, the scheme comprises an elegant cluster of interconnecting cylinders that combine to form a generous podium corresponding to the heights of the surrounding rooflines. Elegantly rising from the podium, a slender sculptural tower acts as a marker for the scheme and relates in scale to the City Hall tower opposite, adding to the language of spires in Copenhagen. The landscaped roofs of the lower buildings extend the greenery of Tivoli and reinforce the buildings sustainable profile. In addition to allowing for rainwater collection, the buildings are oriented to maximise natural light and views while reducing unwanted solar gain in the summer, but capturing the suns rays in the cooler winter months.
The hotel will offer an unprecedented level of luxury every guest room will benefit from fine views over Tivoli Gardens. The hotel will also benefit from a state-of-the-art spa and fitness centre, which, combined with its bold architectural form, will create a sense of destination and place. At ground level, the podium is permeable and accessible, blending with the spirit of Tivoli Gardens to extend this unique leisure realm at the heart of the city.
Lord Foster said: The Tivoli Gardens Hotel project requires delicacy of scale and sensitivity to Copenhagens rich design heritage, combined with a bold vision for a new design that has integrity and presence. This is a challenge that we, as architects, welcome. I look forward to working with Tivoli and the city on the projects successful realisation."

Candidates There's a vice presidential debate Tuesday. Really. Vice presidential candidates Mike Pence and Tim Kaine will debate Tuesday night, Oct. 4, 2016. Pence held a rally in York, Pa., Thursday, and the next day, we visited the city's New Eastern Market, a favorite shopping spot on Fridays, and asked people if they knew either candidate and whether they would watch the debate. Most were unfamiliar with either candidate, and many said they would not be watching. Credit: Josh Loock/McClatchy
Candidates Trump, Clinton clash in first presidential debate Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton went to head-to-head in the first presidential debate at Hofstra University in New York on Monday.

THE POSTCARD KILLERS by James Patterson and Liza Marklund (Little, Brown, 2010)
Reviewed by Craig Sisterson
You know the raging success of Scandinavian crime writing is permeating the wider books world when prolific #1 bestseller James Patterson decides he wants a piece of the action. More than a year ago news started filtering through that Patterson was looking to hop on board the Schwedenkrimi bullet train by pairing up with acclaimed Viking Queen Liza Marklund, one of the most popular authors across major European markets herself (#12 overall, according to the 2008/2009 Wischenbart survey).
And now, the fictional love child disgorged from the literary loins that sired Alex Cross and the Women's Murder Club, and mother and tabloid crime reporter Annika Bengtzon, is on show for all the world to see; POSTCARD KILLERS was recently released.
In POSTCARD KILLERS, touted as "the scariest vacation thriller ever," NYPD cop Jacob Kanon has been chasing a pair of vicious killers across the capitals and holiday hotspots of Europe. Killers who kick-started their murderous spree by butchering his beloved daughter and her fiancé in Rome. Before each murder, a postcard is sent to a local newspaper, but the police remain largely clueless as the murderers run free. When Stockholm-based crime reporter Dessie Larsson receives the latest note, she and Kanon eventually team up to try to stop the killers once and for all.
Since he began co-opting co-authors to help accelerate his sales juggernaut, Patterson's tales have become mixed, at best (but bestselling regardless) – often formulaic, and never really scaling the heights of his earliest works. Unfortunately for readers hoping that Marklund's input would add some of the depth and substance apparent in many Swedish crime novels, Patterson's paint by numbers style filled with relatively thin characters clearly dominates the partnership here.
While you'll want to know what happens, there is far too much telling rather than showing; everything is spelled out for the reader and there is little subtext, resulting in an insubstantial feeling. What passes for attempts at character development are generally clumsy or clichéd, and the authors' hand is often far too obvious. The characters say things for the benefit of the reader, rather than their growing organically from the story or character. Likewise, it seems incidents and moments are tossed in in a gimmicky way, perhaps in an attempt to shock the reader or to allow the boxes to be ticked, like the script of a bad Hollywood movie that thinks having a sex scene instantly makes the storyline 'sexy', or having a car chase or shootout instantly makes it 'gripping' or 'thrilling'.
Patterson (and Marklund, though you wonder how much she contributed) fill what is a very 'thin' feeling book with distractions, rather than depth. THE POSTCARD KILLERS is very much style over substance, and the style isn't even as unique, clever, or interesting as the authors seem to assume it will be. While Patterson still has some talent for creating some page-turning momentum (the ultra-short chapters help with that too), there are many other thriller writers out there just as good - in fact, many who are much better - at plot, while also providing much, much more when it comes to character, setting, social issues, and dialogue.
Some readers and critics have begun referring to Patterson as something of a 'McDonald's of crime writing' - his conveyer-belt publishing of recent years seemingly akin to the fast food giant. Unfortunately this latest effort, despite Marklund's involvement, does nothing to dissuade such a view, and in fact strongly reinforces it. Because like fast food, the page-turning POSTCARD KILLERS may appeal to the masses, and even briefly sate your hunger while devouring it - if there's nothing better on offer - but soon afterwards you'll be left feeling hungry again, unsatisfied and wanting something more.
Something different, and better.

David Gascoyne, in full David Emery Gascoyne (born October 10, 1916, Harrow, Middlesex, England—died November 25, 2001, Newport, Isle of Wight), English poet deeply influenced by the French Surrealist movement of the 1930s.
Gascoyne's first book of poems, Roman Balcony, appeared in 1932 when he was only 16, and his only novel, Opening Day, appeared the next year. The royalty advance for Opening Day enabled him to visit Paris, which encouraged a passionate interest in Surrealism. His important introductory work, A Short Survey of Surrealism (1935), and his verses Man's Life Is This Meat (1936) were milestones of the movement ... (100 of 239 words)

It was almost 50 years ago that the philosopher Thomas Kuhn coined the term paradigm shift--the moment when our worldview fundamentally changes because of a new idea, as when people understood that the sun does not revolve around the earth or that climate change is altering the way we would all have to live.
Our new idea--and for it, we can thank senior writer Lev Grossman, who edited the cover package--is the magazine you...

Sunderland beat Manchester United 1-0 at Old Trafford this afternoon.
Manchester United's Old Trafford woes continued as they lost 1-0 to Sunderland.
The lift that came following Ryan Giggs' temporary appointment was quickly replaced by the sense of disappointment that has accompanied so many home games for United this season.
The hosts were simply not good enough, and managed only two shots on target in the entire match.
Sunderland's Seb Larsson scored the only goal of the game in the 30th minute after good work from Connor Wickham.
That United's best chance came from Nemanja Vidic says it all. Whoever is in charge of this United side, their squad needs a considerable overhaul this summer.
The result means United could not take advantage of Tottenham Hotspur's slip earlier in the day, while Sunderland climbed three points clear of Norwich City.

Dietary inequalities: What is the evidence for the effect of the neighbourhood food environment?

Abstract This review summarises the evidence for inequalities in community and consumer nutrition environments from ten previous review articles, and also assesses the evidence for the effect of the community and consumer nutrition environments on dietary intake. There is evidence for inequalities in food access in the US but trends are less apparent in other developed countries. There is a trend for greater access and availability to healthy and less healthy foods relating to better and poorer dietary outcomes respectively. Trends for price show that higher prices of healthy foods are associated with better dietary outcomes. More nuanced measures of the food environment, including multidimensional and individualised approaches, would enhance the state of the evidence and help inform future interventions.

Utility and council tax bills have overtaken mortgage payments as the largest cost burden for homeowners for the first time.
Inflation-busting rises in gas and electricity bills and increases in council tax mean the share of total housing spending has risen to 34 per cent, Halifax bank said yesterday. The figures, for the year to March this year, mean these costs are now greater than mortgage interest payments, which take up 33 per cent.
The average cost of council tax and utility bills was £2,244, up 9.4 per cent on the previous year, while an average interest-only mortgage was virtually unchanged at £2,146. It is a marked reversal from four years ago when mortgage payments took up 33 per cent of the total compared with 31 per cent for the tax and utility bills.
The gap is likely to widen further in the financial year that starts next month as homeowners are hit by massive rises in gas and electricity prices announced by the power giants. British Gas increased gas and electricity prices by 22 per cent on 1 March, while council tax bills will rise 4.5 per cent next month- more than double the rate of inflation.
Halifax forecasts power and tax bills could take up 36 per cent in the 2006-07 financial year, while mortgage interest costs will fall if interest rates are cut, as Halifax expects. The cost of owning and running a home rose 7 per cent in the year to March 2005, more than three times the rate of inflation.
Last year Mervyn King, the Governor of the Bank of England, angered the Treasury by blaming a rising tax burden and soaring utility bills for the marked slowdown in consumer spending. A Treasury spokesman said: "Reforms to personal tax and benefits that the Government has introduced since 1997 have benefited all families." He said the average household would, by next month, be better off by £950 a year in real terms than in 1997.

i am kinda afraid of these things tbh, cuz if my FXZ200s are any indication of their sound, these will literally sound like a set of FULL size speakers blasting at you!!!
As if that,s a bad thing. Full size sound at a fraction of the price.
meng, i thought we are talking about headphones, not damn speakers!!! Do we REALLY want headphones to sound like speakers??? LoL
Speak for yourself i use some $35 5.1/ 2.1 logitech speakers and i am more than happy with them, spent more on iems than my speakers LMAO.
Yeah but if you get the SZ2K's, you could just put them on your desk and use them as speakers when you like. Multi-purpose baby!
They're headphones WAYNE.
If they can reproduce the sound of real speakers when blasted wayyyyyyyyyyy up, then i am all in. hoho Someone should try it.
I suspect that it is the Japanese to English translation of what is commonly known as faux leather. So no animals were harmed, which would in turn not cause sales problems with customers who might be turned off by the use of animal hide.
"Protein Leather" is powdered eggshell ( or a derivative of that ) blended into their pleather coating for increased durability and wear ( and comfort ). A patented thing I don't know who holds the patent I forget..
Strange yeah but it works.
How come nobody has protested the harming of Jellyfish used in all those Gel Pads....
Only at Head-Fi people complain when we get more for our money.
Bring it on JVC I say. My card,s ready.
lets see how they compare to the orthos...
i wonder how fast jvc is going to be updating their headphones and iems
at this rate, everyone will be buying 3 jvc hp per year!
oh don't get me wrong, i am a cheap bastard just like any other head-fier but i am scared that these might just be overkill since people are impatient and will NOT put in the proper amount of burn-in needed for these CNT gears.
JVC really need to put a label up with the required amount of burn-in in order to achieve their best/ true sound, cuz i had a love and hate, well mostly hate relationship with the FXZ200s for the longest time. But they have finally showed their true colors/ potential after literally like a month of intense burn-in.
I like the look of these, but will also admit I won't be buying them due to the prices I, like SF, am a cheap mofo and look for bargains hehe. Oh, btw what model number are your speakers, sf? I'm on the lookout for a cheap set for my pc.

ya' mon, slickdealers at heart unite!!!
I have the logitech X-540 5.1s and the Z-3s. Got the Z-3s for $20 and the 540s for like $35 boi!!!
Go get the Klipsch ProMedias if they are on sale for like $100, heard lots of great things about them, too bad they are butt ugly.
somone get these currawong approved when they come out
^ it's not lack of faith, we are just cheap mofos like Gee said.
i am sure they sound AMAZING, but you people better get ready to put in at least 500hrs of burn-in before you'll start to ripping on them. ha
^ man i am not sure if i can trust that noob bridie again, he sold off his FXZ200s before they had a chance to shine and he crazy hyped about them. LoL
Not sure if another birdie endorsement would be a good thing tbh.

"Zuleika Arashiro's book represents a substantial and original contribution to our understanding of an important outcome in the contemporary global system: the failure to negotiate the Free Trade Agreement of the Americas (FTAA). The novel explanation she provides focuses on the importance of ideas and beliefs in the evolving context of international negotiations. The contribution extends beyond the case of the FTAA, offering a critical perspective that complements existing research and could be used productively in other contexts. Students of Brazilian and U.S. foreign policy should read this book." - Maxwell A. Cameron, Professor of Political Science, University of British Columbia
"The demise of the project to construct a Free Trade Area of the Americas was an important turning point in the recent history of the Western Hemisphere. It put an end to any suggestion that the United States might lead a powerful bloc based on the region. It also reinforced the trends to greater economic independence in Latin America. With Negotiating the Free Trade of the Americas? Zuleika Arashiro has done a brilliant job in analyzing this key moment. This book will become the standard text on the question and a major contribution to the international relations and political economy of this part of the world." - Dr John Minns, Director, Australian National Centre for Latin American Studies, Australian National University
