Score by "component
You know what you're doing, score 2-10
There are many different ways to score images. Before picking a number, the most important thing to keep in mind is to keep your personal likes/dislikes towards the subject matter or technique out of the process. It's about the image – not about your preferences. In other words, even if you loathe snakes, is it a good photo of a snake?
Consider technique — focus and exposure, are they appropriate to the image. Does it have some weaknesses, is average, or is very well handled?
You would expect these to be within a range, given today's technology, but are they appropriate to the subject?
Has depth of field been used effectively? Is it soft and low-contrast to suit the mood?
Consider these factors before scoring it lower for being "too contrasty" or "over-exposed".
Technique is not about how "hard" a technique is — it's more about how effectively the tools are used.
Consider composition — this is also an important part of an image, and books can be written about it.
Primarily, does your eye go to the subject/story and do the other elements in the photo enhance/complement the subject/story or detract?
Consider message — this is all about your emotional reaction.
Does the expression on the face tug at your heartstrings? Keep in mind your personal biases.
Does the image tell you something about the subject or makes you think? Does it evoke memories of your own of similar situations?
Does it document an event well, or is more what we would call a simple "snapshot".
When scoring Theme images, also consider how the image relates to the Theme's statement.
Consider the "wow" factor — which is hard to quantify, but you know it when you see it.
Does the image stand out (not at all, a little, or a lot?) from other similar images you have seen of the same subject matter.
Yes, kittens are cute but fall into the "commonly seen" category — cuddly, but maybe not "wow!".
Is it a stunning capture of a subject in action? Is it a (good) unusual view of a common subject?
Is the lighting effective, startling or amazing?
Is this an image that stands out in a crowd?
When scoring Theme images, consider if the artist has found a unique (and good) interpretation of the Theme's statement.
Now you're ready to assign a score. You can use "Composite" scoring and assign numbers within each category as discussed above.
Or once you get used to considering the above, just choose a general score within an assigned range using the "Single Value" tab.
If you are thinking of scoring an image low, it is usually only in the case of really serious technical flaws,
(which in competition you will rarely if ever see).
Keep the mid-range points for images that are technically ok, adequate in composition but fall into
the "calendar", "postcard", or "snapshot" type categories.
In other words, good, strong images but sort of "Kodak X" shots; lacking that extra dimension that really makes them stand out.
Then the tricky part, your top scores – if it's a "wow" image but has a compositional issue or strong distraction, maybe an 8. If it awes you and you can't find anything wrong, you can give that perfect score. Really. And if you're just not quite sure it's as good as it could be, then maybe a 9.
Relax – the more you judge and view the scores of others, the more confident you will get. Remember that even very experienced judges will often disagree!
If you change your mind, you can come back and rescore an image. Only your last score is used in calculating overall score statistics for an image. Each time you display the scoring form, it resets to the "5" score. It will not display previously saved scores.
After considering all of the above and creating a score, you should be able to now easily take those thoughts and record them as your comments about the image!

CORRECTION: Because of a tweet I attributed to Senator John McCain, I inadvertantly reported Tuesday night that this fund had been established by McCain. My apologies to Mr. Halperin and Mr. McCain.
Moments after Tuesday night's ESPN E:60 profile about the Let Teddy Win movement, Nats fan Jon Halperin announced the establishment of a charitable fund designed to put pressure on the Nationals to let Teddy win.
"I have been attending Nats games since April 14, 2005," Halperin writes. "I have seen Teddy suffer vicious attacks and unfair disqualifications. After watching the ESPN E:60 report, I decided enough was enough. I am going to do something to help 'Make Teddy Win'.
Halperin set up the fund at Indiegogo.com, and is soliciting donations from members of the movement. 50% of the funds collected will be designated to be split between the DC Central Kitchen and the The Fisher House Foundation.
Then here's where it gets interesting, as Halperin applies a little game theory logic on the Nationals:
If the Teddy wins a race this year and the win is officially recognized in the standings by the team, then 50% of the funds collected will go to the Nationals' own Dream Foundation. If Teddy doesn't win, those funds will be split between the other two charities.
"I have been going to Nats games since they moved back to DC and I have always cheered for Teddy," Halperin told me via email. "I wanted to pick causes that all of DC area can support. The Fisher House does a great job supporting Military families while members of our Armed Forces are hospitalized and DC Central Kitchen helps fight against hunger and homelessness while providing job training. Also both organizations have a strong record of accountability."
But will it work?
"I do think there is a certain amount," Halperin says, "where the Nats would have to stop and think if its worth Letting Teddy Win."
The goal set for the campaign is $6,000, but here's hoping Teddy fans will bust through that mark (it might take more than that to sway the Nats).

Beneath a ceiling of stars in the Walt Disney Animation Studios building in Burbank sits what looks to be a small, bright yellow clapboard house. A patch of green plastic grass and a plastic pink flamingo are by the front door.
The playhouse is actually Becky Bresee's office. She is supervising animator for Anna, the character voiced by Kristen Bell in "Frozen," the studio's spectacular new 3-D animated musical. It opens today at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood and Wednesday everywhere else.
"I don't often show people this, but it's kind of helpful for you to see my process," says Bresee, who describes her job as making the character more believable. On her computer screen she calls up a clip of herself. In the picture, she stands there tethered by her headphones acting out part of a scene in the movie between Anna and Kristoff, a handsome mountain man voiced by Jonathan Groff.
"Anna's a little bit nervous and uncomfortable, and I had to find a way to put that into the animation," explains Bresee, who performs the sequence a number of times, each emphasizing the character's gestures differently. The animator — who says she has taken acting classes but doesn't really perform outside the office — then shows how what she did is incorporated into the film. It's part of a long route to the final product, but it illustrates the increasing flexibility in creating animation features.
"Frozen," which is loosely based on Hans Christian Andersen's "The Snow Queen," is the 53rd animated feature from the studio. It's directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, who also wrote the script.
Buck has been in the animation business since 1978, co-directing "Tarzan" and "Surf's Up" along the way. "Frozen" is Lee's first as a director, after being a screenwriter on "Wreck-It Ralph." She is the first woman to direct a full-length animated motion picture produced by Disney Animation Studios.
As far back as the 1940s, Walt Disney had been interested in making "The Snow Queen" into a feature. Because of its potential visual qualities — glimmering ice and snow — it had always seemed suited for animation, but various attempts over the years were unable to solve the fairy tale's narrative problems.
"Frozen" brings a number of changes to the story, most notably making Anna —based on Gerda in the original story — the younger sister of the Snow Queen, now called Elsa.
"That changed the story very dramatically," says Lee.
In the new Disney version, Elsa (Idina Menzel) has superpowers that can control ice and snow, which she has suppressed and kept hidden from everyone while growing up, thus cutting herself off from her sister.
When Elsa's secret is accidentally revealed the day she becomes queen, she uses her abilities to unleash an eternal winter throughout the land and flees.
While pursuing her, Anna meets Kristoff, his reindeer, Sven, and a magical snowman named Olaf (Josh Gad), whom the sisters had made as children, but who has suddenly come to life.
For the story to work, the filmmakers felt they needed to find a way to thaw out Elsa's character. That was helped along by songs composed by Robert Lopez, known for his work on "Avenue Q" and "The Book of Mormon," and his wife, Kristen Anderson-Lopez. The pair had earlier written songs for the Disney animated film "Winnie the Pooh."
Buck jokes that the couple would tease Lee that "they were going to take her best scenes and make them their songs." And sometimes they did. One tune in particular — "Let It Go" — turned out to be a game changer and, if this were Broadway, a showstopper.
Sung by Menzel, the Tony Award winner for her role of Elphaba in "Wicked," the song sheds a new light on Elsa.
"Up until then, Elsa was pretty much a straightforward villain," says Lee. "We wanted to know more about her, what she would be like if she could be herself without fear. After that, she was much more complex, more interesting and sympathetic."
The change required Lee to do some rewriting, which she was happy to do.
"Everything now hangs on the theme of the power of love versus the power of fear," she said.
Buck says Disney and Pixar creative chief John Lasseter was so taken with "Let It Go," he would play it over and over in his car.
Buck and Lee were impressed by the vulnerability Menzel brought to Elsa and how she and Bell, also a Broadway veteran, related.
"During one of our early read-throughs, Kristen and Idina sang a ballad to each other which had so much emotion that everyone in the room was in tears," Buck says. "It not only showed how great their voices were together, but showed the power the music would have in the story." As a longtime animator, Buck also was excited by the possibilities of creating the wintery landscape in 3-D. A research team even went to Norway to get some ideas.
Alex Torija-Paris, a senior software engineer, showed me one of the new tools, a device that allows the user to sprinkle snow wherever wanted in a scene. You point and shoot at a screen and then twist your wrists around; it creates a magical effect.
Torija-Paris also let me wield a lightweight shoulder camera that put me in the middle of a short scene where Kristoff is furiously riding his reindeer across the snow and ice. As the scene repeated, I was able to film it in different ways and from different angles — none of them particularly well, but well enough to get the idea of how a real animation filmmaker could move the camera within a sequence and isn't locked into a particular shot until the finishing phases of the process.
Buck and Lee agree that one thing to be aware of with technology is not to do too much.
"We try not to go overboard with the camerawork so we don't make people queasy or anything," says Buck.
Lee notes that 3-D technology is getting "better and better."
"The snowfall is right there in the audience," Buck adds.
With "Frozen," Disney has created two more animated princesses, although technically Elsa does become a queen in the story. The filmmakers say adding to the Disney princess franchise was never their intention, and that neither Lasseter nor Ed Catmull, president of Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios, put any pressure on them to do so.
"We were oblivious to that," says Lee. "It was just about the story.
"The reason we ended up making them princesses was just to raise the stakes so that as royalty, what they did affected more than their own lives."
Now that "Frozen" is about to hit theaters, Buck's and Lee's characters are apt to take on lives of their own. Anna and Elsa will be greeting patrons at Disney's theme parks in Anaheim and Florida, and there are "Frozen" character toys already in stores. An ice skating show would be a natural.
"So now that it's done, there's a lot of fun stuff," admits Lee.
"Frozen" will be accompanied in theaters by the visually witty "Get a Horse!" directed by Lauren MacMullan. It begins like an old black-and-white Mickey Mouse cartoon, featuring the voice of Walt Disney, and soon blossoms into a fun, colorful 3-D musical short. Mickey, who turned 85 this year, has never looked better.

About Look Cycle
It was 1986 when Greg LeMond rode his Look prototype carbon fiber frame to victory in the Tour de France. In the 2+ decades since Look bikes have been ridden to countless yellow jerseys, polka-dot jerseys, and other top results in the world's most prestigious races. No other company can compare to Look in its experience with composites technology, or in its heritage in the professional peloton. In case you're keeping history notes -- LeMond's La Vie Claire turned into Toshiba, led by Jean-Francois Bernard. Once the Toshiba era ended, Look then became the sponsor of showstopping teams like CSC-Tiscali, Kelme, and Credit Agricole, culminating with the French powerhouse Cofidis.
it's not just the longevity of Look's commitment to carbon frame manufacturing that sets them apart. What impresses most is their mastery of multiple construction methods. Many companies make nice monocoque frames. A handful make well-done lugged frames. But no one besides Look makes ProTour-caliber frames in both. And this kind of technological fluency carries through into subtler forms of innovation, like Look's vibration-damping E-Post and their compression carbon dropouts.
The Look 586 stands as the pinnacle of monocoque frameset innovation, as evidenced by its "Bike of the Year" award by French magazine Le Cycle. The subtle progressions in the 586's tube shapes provides the best of all worlds: Drivetrain rigidity, steering precision, shock absorption, and lightness. The undisturbed lines of flowing design isn't just beautiful, but it offers some of the best aerodynamics you'll find in a road bike.
By contrast, the 595 and 585 are lugged frames, joining sophisticated carbon tubes to carbon nanotube lugs for an ideal blend of lateral rigidity and comfort. Look's tubing is multi-shaped with variable wall thicknesses. Each frame size uses a different gauge tubeset to give it an ideal feel and responsiveness. In some circles, this is known as "Size-specific tubing." As you might imagine, a tubeset designed for a 51cm frame will result is a whippy frame if used in a 59cm frame. Look addresses this by varying the gauge per size. The ride of the 595 is tuned so beautifully that it was the bike of choice for Team Cofidis, even though it weighs 60g more than the 586.

Older teens and adults with attention deficit disorder are much less likely to commit a crime while on ADHD medication, a provocative study from Sweden found.
It also showed in dramatic fashion how much more prone people with ADHD are to break the law — four to seven times more likely than others.
The findings suggest that Ritalin, Adderall and other drugs that curb hyperactivity and boost attention remain important beyond the school-age years and that wider use of these medications in older patients might help curb crime.
"There definitely is a perception that it's a disease of childhood and you outgrow your need for medicines," said Dr William Cooper, a paediatrics and preventive medicine professor at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. "We're beginning to understand that ADHD is a condition for many people that really lasts throughout their life."
Read: Predicting criminal behaviour
ADHD and criminality
He has researched ADHD but had no role in the new study, which was led by Paul Lichtenstein of the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. The findings were published in New England Journal of Medicine.
About 5% of children in the US and other Western countries have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, which can cause impulsive behaviour and difficulty paying attention. Many youngsters are given medication to help them sit still and focus in school. Some people have symptoms into adulthood.
"It's well known that individuals with ADHD have much higher rates of criminality and drug abuse than people without ADHD," but the effect of treatment on this is not well known, Lichtenstein said.
Using Swedish national registers, researchers studied about 16 000 men and 10 000 women ages 15 and older who had been diagnosed with ADHD. The country has national health care, so information was available on all drugs prescribed.
Court and prison records were used to track convictions from 2006 through 2009 and see whether patients were taking ADHD drugs when their crimes were committed. A patient was considered to have gone off medication after six months or more with no new prescription.
For comparison purposes, researchers matched each ADHD patient with 10 similar people without the disorder from the general population.
Findings in the study
About 37% of men with ADHD were convicted of at least one crime during that four-year period, compared with just 9% of men without ADHD. For women, the crime rates were 15% with ADHD and 2% without it.
Use of ADHD medicines reduced the likelihood of committing a crime by 325 in men and 41% in women. The crimes were mostly burglaries or thefts. About 4 000 of more than 23 000 crimes committed were violent. ADHD medication use reduced all types of crime, Lichtenstein said.
Cooper called the results striking. "I was surprised by the magnitude of the effect of the medications and the fact that it was so consistent across all the analyses they did," such as the type of drug being used and the types of crimes committed, he said. The Swedish Research Council, the US National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, the Wellcome Trust and other agencies paid for the research.
ADHD medicines may help people organise their lives better and reduce impulsive behaviour. They also bring a patient into counselling and health care, said Philip Asherson, a professor at the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College London. "It's not necessarily just the medication" that is reducing the likelihood of crime, he said.
Still, Asherson said the study should lead to wider use of the drugs: "It firmly establishes the link between ADHD and criminality and establishes that medication has an impact on that criminality."

Saturday mail delivery to end in August
The U.S. Postal Service will stop delivering mail on Saturdays but continue to deliver packages six days a week under a plan aimed at saving about $2 billion, the financially struggling agency says.
In an announcement scheduled for later Wednesday, the service is expected to say the Saturday mail cutback would begin in August.
The move accentuates one of the agency's strong points — package delivery has increased by 14 percent since 2010, officials say, while the delivery of letters and other mail has declined with the increasing use of email and other Internet use.
Under the new plan, mail would still be delivered to post office boxes on Saturdays. Post offices now open on Saturdays would remain open on Saturdays.
Over the past several years, the Postal Service has advocated shifting to a five-day delivery schedule for mail and packages — and it repeatedly but unsuccessfully appealed to Congress to approve the move. Though an independent agency, the service gets no tax dollars for its day-to-day operations but is subject to congressional control.
It was not immediately clear how the service could eliminate Saturday mail without congressional approval.
But the agency clearly thinks it has a majority of the American public on its side regarding the change.
Material prepared for the Wednesday press conference by Patrick R. Donahoe, postmaster general and CEO, says Postal Service market research and other research has indicated that nearly 7 in 10 Americans support the switch to five-day delivery as a way for the Postal Service to reduce costs.

Lost in Suburbia: The rain in Spain stays mainly in the basement
Oftentimes when you have a plumbing emergency, you can't actually get a plumber to come quickly unless you have visual proof that your house has turned into an ark and is floating away. Fortunately for us, when an outside faucet broke and started spraying water into the yard, we determined that it could probably wait until the plumber got through his other appointments to come over and shut it off.
This seemed like a good decision at the time and I didn't give it any further thought until several hours later when my daughter went down to the basement to play video games and then reappeared in the kitchen two minutes later.
"Mom, the downstairs rug is squishy," she commented.
I'd heard our basement rug described as soft, cushy, and comfy before, but never squishy. Squishy didn't exactly sound like a good thing. Squishy sounded suspiciously… wet.
Not really putting together the outside pipe issue with the inside squishy issue, I redirected her to the family room and got distracted making dinner. It wasn't until I heard an actual splash come from the basement that I remembered that I needed to investigate the squishy carpet.
This time I put down the food and ran downstairs. I didn't need to test the carpet to see if there was water in the basement. Things were actually floating around the room. The good news was, the plumber arrived just as I discovered the swimming pool in the basement. The bad news was, the splash sound appeared to be a mouse doing the backstroke.
The plumber immediately determined that the faucet we thought was broken on the outside was actually attached to an entire pipe that had burst on the inside. He also determined that the pipe that was broken was sealed behind a cement wall and could not be accessed without a sledgehammer and a big guy named Bubba.
To recap:
Outside: little leak.
Inside: big leak.
Plumber: Mostly calm.
Me: Mostly hysterical.
The plumber looked around for a shut off valve, but apparently whoever had sealed the pipes behind the wall had also hidden the shut off valve, as well. After ten minutes of searching, he finally found it and was able to stop the flow of water. While he checked around for any other related issues, I ran around trying to rescue our saturated belongings. Then I got on the phone and called in a sump pump company to suck the water out of the basement and dry the whole mess out.
With workmen coming in and out, hoses pumping out water, and fans churning to dry it all up, it all became too much for the dog. As I came up from the basement with more wet stuff, I saw the dog squat and pee all over the family room floor.
I just looked at the plumber and sighed.
"Looks like we need a shut off valve for the dog, too."

Patients & Families
For Health Professionals
Help! I'm pregnant and have hemorrhoids that are driving me crazy! And, on top of it, I'm always constipated. What do I do?!
– Cyndy
Hemorrhoids — which are actually varicose veins in the anus or rectum — are a common pregnancy complaint. They may bleed, itch, or sting, especially during or after a bowel movement. As the blood volume increases and the uterus presses against the pelvis, the veins in your anus or rectum may enlarge into grape-like clusters. They usually get better after delivery.
Another common complaint during pregnancy is constipation. It may be hard to have a bowel movement because hormones slow the rate of food passing through the gastrointestinal tract and the uterus pushes against the large intestine. Constipation contributes to hemorrhoids because straining to have a bowel movement may enlarge the veins of the rectum.
The best way to combat both hemorrhoids and constipation is to prevent them. Eat a diet rich in fiber — whole-grain breads and cereals, beans, and fresh fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of water every day. Exercise regularly. Ask your doctor if you should use stool softeners (unless the doctor tells you to, you shouldn't take laxatives).
And try not to stand or sit for long periods of time — both put pressure on the veins in your lower body. If you have to sit for a long time, make sure to get up and walk around for a few minutes every hour.
To help relieve hemorrhoid pain, soak in a tub or use over-the-counter hemorrhoid creams and/or witch hazel pads. Ice packs on the painful area may also provide a little much-needed relief. Unscented, pre-moistened wipes are often less irritating than toilet paper.
Check with your doctor before using any products for hemorrhoid relief, and about any questions or concerns you have.

Police and Fire: January 9, 2013
Expired license
Sault Police report faulty taillights prompted a traffic stop shortly after 1 a.m. today near the intersection of E. Spruce and Barbeau. A subsequent investigation resulted in the arrest of Steven Hodges for an expired license.
Hodges was booked into the Chippewa County Jail, while his vehicle was towed from the scene.
Sault Police were summoned to an I-75 Business Spur retail store Tuesday to investigate a trespassing complaint.
Store officials report the woman had previously been arrested for retail fraud at that location and, as a result, was prohibited from visiting any store in the nationwide chain.
No arrests were made as police were unsuccessful in their efforts to contact the suspect in this matter.
All of the compiled evidence is destined for the desk of the prosecuting attorney for review on a possible trespassing charge.
Missing money
City police were alerted to the apparent theft of $100 in cash from an apartment in the 300 block of Ann on Tuesday.
The complainant said he had identified a suspect who had already offered to pay him back during his initial contact with police.
The rightful owner of the missing cash said he planned to wait until Friday to see if he was reimbursed before officially filing a report in this matter.

Understanding decree can eliminate a lot of confusion
The 2007 Inland Consent Decree is a long, confusing read, but its important to outdoorsmen in northern Michigan, Tribal or otherwise.
Developing an understanding the Inland Consent Decree and what it provides to Michigan's recreational outdoorsmen and the Tribes will go a long way in alleviating any misunderstanding of spring walleye fishing.
The volumes of text and legalese boil down to one thing, the rights to resources. It often gets discussed as an equal rights issue, but its more than that.
The 2007 Consent Decree is basically a natural resources management and allocation agreement that provides specific guidelines for Tribal harvests and methods of harvest for the five northern Michigan Tribes involved in the 1836 Treaty of Washington.
When the 2007 Inland Consent Decree was negotiated and ultimately signed, officials from the Tribes, the State and the United States sat down to decide how Michigan's natural resources should be divvied out and managed.
At the time of negotiations the federal courts had already ruled that Tribes should be allocated 50 percent of the harvest, but Michigan's Tribes agreed to lesser terms than the court-set precedent, according to Smith.
As far as fishing is concerned, the decree provides the Tribes two harvest options, threshold harvest and allocation harvest. Under allocation harvest, which is the most liberal harvest method, the Tribes can harvest 17.5 percent of the catch in any given lake. Threshold harvest is far and away the most popular Tribal harvest method and it provides 5 percent of the catch.

One of the big advantages of the composites is that they don't require much maintenance; of course there are some crucial rules to extend the lifetime of your boat:
- Do not put it in the sun for long periods.
- Do not tight it too strongly in the racks.
- Only allow professionals to repair your boat.
- Never store or transport it inside the cover if the boat is not well dry.
- And treat it like a baby.
Boats should be used only by trained persons or under supervision.
The use should be done under the rules established for each boat class.
After receiving your boat, we recommend you do some tests to find your best trim, to find it you should:
- Start with the seat in the middle position.
- Move the foot rest to fit you.
- Check the behaviour at competition speed, the bow should be around 1 cm into the water, in a stopped position the bow should be well under water.
- You should move your seat and foot rest together until the boat is performing as described in point 3.
This is just one of many methods of finding the best position, though it always changes slightly from person to person, but these are the basic rules.
Rudder Adjusting
Making your rudder straight is an essential part of enjoying your boat.
In order to make it 100% perfect you should use the straps inside your boat:
- Hold the rudder blade in the straight position;
- Use the straps one at a time, until the T bar goes straight in the middle.
While paddling you can also make little adjustments by pulling the strap on the side the T Bar is tending to.
M.A.R. Kayaks, Lda. offers you a 2-year warranty on this boat, but it is conditioned by the following procedures:
- Misuse
- Damage caused by transport
- Repairs made by unauthorised personnel
- Removal or damage of plates and stickers
This warranty covers any fabrication defects on the boat or parts, as well as changes in the materials characteristics.
To present a claim:
- Transport Damage: Claim as you receive the boat to the transporters (on the CMR document) and to the insurance agent on your insurance document, also you should inform us of the damage, as well as send pictures and details.
- Other: Send pictures together with a description of the damage as well as the boat number, this will help us evaluate and fix or replace the boat faster.
The Viper 48 came to fill a gap between the Viper 51 and the Classic, a lot of paddlers felt the lack of volume on the classic created stability and use issues ( on choppy water), the Viper 48 mixes a good glide to a comfortable boat with enough volume to be used in all conditions.

2012 was a roller coaster of a year for Apple and those who depend on its ecosystem. It was the first full year Apple operated under CEO Tim Cook's thumb, and there were plenty of ups and downs for Cook to ride on.
We thought we'd highlight five of the most notable Apple-related stories as we look back on the last 12 months. Some directly affect Apple's user base more than others, but they all contributed to a company going through developmental change—on the inside and out. In chronological order…
The removal of Java from OS X Web browsers
Apple's decision to kick Java to the curb was largely sparked by the new (and improved) Flashback malware outbreak earlier in the year. Although Flashback first made an appearance in 2011, the 2012 version took advantage of a Java vulnerability Apple left unpatched for months after Oracle released a fix. That decision to hold off on a fix wasn't the best PR move for Apple, but the company later made up for it—at least in the eyes of security experts—by getting rid of Java in OS X browsers altogether.
"I think that the way they've handled Java in the browser was their biggest win in 2012," noted Apple "hacker" Charlie Miller told Ars recently. Miller pointed out the payoff in writing Mac-specific exploits is still too low for most attackers, but Java exploits carry the benefit of being able to affect multiple platforms at once. "[A]nything Apple does to reduce Java's install base in OS X is a security gain that still gives them some real life improvements."
Tim Cook's public apology for iOS 6 Maps
It's not often Apple issues any kind of public apology for… well, anything. So when it does happen, it means some serious ish is going down in Cupertino. That was apparently the case just weeks after Apple's release of iOS 6. Much to Apple-watchers' surprise, the company posted an open letter in late September to its customers, signed by Tim Cook, that acknowledged Apple's shortcomings when it came to releasing a new, Google-free version of Maps for iOS.
"At Apple, we strive to make world-class products that deliver the best experience possible to our customers," Cook wrote. "With the launch of our new Maps last week, we fell short on this commitment. We are extremely sorry for the frustration this has caused our customers and we are doing everything we can to make Maps better."
Since then, Apple continues to take a beating for some of the weaknesses of Maps. But according to our recent poll, almost a third of Ars readers continue to use the app over other mapping solutions on the iPhone.
The launch of the iPad mini
Some Apple-watchers thought the day would never come, but Apple launched its own smaller version of the iPad only two years after Apple cofounder Steve Jobs declared 7" tablets to be "dead in the water." Apple argued that the 7.85" iPad was different from the rest of the 7" tablet market, not just because of the OS it's running, but also because of its 50-67 percent larger usable area.
Unsurprisingly, Apple declared the iPad mini's launch weekend a wild success, with sales of it plus the fourth-generation iPad setting a new first-weekend iPad sales record. Indeed, the iPad mini seems to be popular enough among the masses—especially as we head into the holidays—at its cheaper $329 price point, even though many reviewers (ourselves included) cried over the lack of a "retina" class display.
Scott Forstall ushered out of Apple
Apple's iOS software head Scott Forstall has always been a controversial guy. He's notorious for being a hard worker with high standards, and he might not always be the easiest to get along with. The latter appears to be why Forstall found himself being ushered out of the higher ranks at Apple in October of 2012. A number of reports cited clashes with other Apple executives as the main reason Forstall couldn't be kept around for much longer. Not only was Forstall allegedly at odds with Apple designer Jony Ive, he also had reported conflicts with engineering head Bob Mansfield, among others.
A little more than a month later, Cook once again hinted at this as the reason for Forstall's exit in an interview with Bloomberg BusinessWeek. When asked about "what was wrong" with Forstall at Apple, Cook was pragmatic: "The key in the change that you're referencing is my deep belief that collaboration is essential for innovation."
Despite the apparent "jubilation" following Forstall's departure, the news still came as a shock to many of us who follow the company closely. Forstall's influence on the design and direction of iOS is nothing to sneeze at. Although he's staying on as an advisor to Apple, the operating system may soon take a different turn now that he's no longer in charge.
Decision to manufacture (some) Macs in the US of A
There are some jobs that have just plain never been in the US to begin with, and the kind of large-scale electronics manufacturing that Apple does through its Asian partners are some of those jobs. That hasn't stopped the masses from calling on Apple to do at least some of its manufacturing in its home country, largely due to some of the discoveries made at Foxconn's factories in China. In the past, the company has found some evidence of child workers, "involuntary labor," and safety issues, not to mention a recent rash of suicides and disputes over pay in China.
That's why it was both a relief and a surprise when Cook announced this month that Apple would begin manufacturing a line of Macs in the US beginning in 2013. He discussed the decision in his aforementioned interview with Bloomberg, as well as a TV interview with NBC News. Cook revealed Apple has been "working on" increasing its US manufacturing for some time.
"We're really proud of it. We could have quickly maybe done just assembly, but it's broader because we wanted to do something more substantial," Cook told Bloomberg. "So we'll literally invest over $100 million. This doesn't mean that Apple will do it ourselves, but we'll be working with people, and we'll be investing our money."
Of course, one line of Macs isn't much, especially when compared against the kind of sales numbers that come from the iPhone and iPad. But the move is symbolic and could lead to increased numbers of electronics—not just from Apple—being made in the US in the future.

Our Motherhood, Our Selves
When I wrote that MILF post the other day, I was sort of expecting that there might be one or two people, at least, that might say that they embraced the term MILF. To which I was fully prepared (and even set up the groundwork in the post) to say, hey, fine, whatever floats your empowerment boat. I have no interest in telling people what they should or should not find empowering; I just have some clear opinions about what seems to me to be unempowering. But although some people said that the term didn't bother them (which, again, fine; I'm not looking to ban the term), no one said that they embraced it or took it seriously.
That, however, wasn't the thing that most surprised me in the comments. What surprised me most was that someone turned up and read the whole discussion as an affirmation of the general tendency of mothers to view themselves as superior to other women and to other human beings in general:
Um. The statement that mothers are sexually more interesting is just as offensive as the suggestion that they're not... Mothers are women. Childless women are women. There's no "winner" but there seems to be this divisive battle going on, particularly in the blogging sphere. Problem is, I don't see any non-mothers claiming superiority in the way I see mothers doing so.
My response - admittedly knee-jerk - was to defend the intended literal meaning of what I'd actually said:
I said that *I* was sexually more interesting, as compared to my pre-maternal self. It was a personal reference, not a universal one (although I would argue that sexual self-awareness and maturity does make one more interesting as a sexual partner generally. This, however, does not apply exclusively to mothers...) The fact is - as one anonymous commenter above makes abundantly clear - that mothers, as a group, are often regarded as asexual or unsexual by the culture at large, and certainly by popular culture.
When I gave it another moment's thought, however, I realized that my irritation at the comment wasn't that I'd been misunderstood, or that the commenter had missed my point about the whole MILF thing being demeaning to women generally, but rather that someone was bringing up this old saw about mothers having a superiority complex, and that I was going to have address it lest my head explode.
There are a lot of things that I could say about this whole 'mothers think they're special'/'parents think that the whole world should revolve around them' nonsense, not least among which would be that until you've had a child, you can't possible realize how many facking obstacles the world throws at human beings who pack children around with them. But my primary argument would be this: yes, actually, mothers (and to some extent, parents generally) do think that they are special. Not as a matter of superiority, but as a matter of difference. We have a differiority complex. We view ourselves as fundamentally different in many respects from people who do not have children. (Note this important point: NOT BETTER THAN. DIFFERENT THAN.)
Once you have given birth to or adopted a child, your entire world changes. Your entire world, and THE entire world, changes. You come to understand love in an entirely different way than you could ever have possibly understood it in the absence of the human being that is entirely dependent upon you. You come to understand your body, and bodies generally, in an entirely different way. You come to understand faith and morality and safety and security and learning and dependence and independence and fear - oh my god the fear - and passion and defensiveness in ways that you could not possibly understand if you did not have that child. This is, in my opinion, just fact. Children change you fundamentally and uniquely. Someone who has not had a child simply cannot understand the nature of this change firsthand.
This does not mean that people without children are less than, or inferior to, people with children. It just means that our life experiences are different. Parents - and especially mothers, I think - know things that non-parents cannot possibly know, because of those different experiences. If you do not have a child - by birth or adoption or whatever - or have not had a child (it does not matter for how long - five seconds or five years or five decades - or under what circumstances children might have been lost or given up, the experience of the having, however briefly, is what is fundamental) you cannot know how having a child changes you, how it changes your perspective, how it changes your relationship to yourself and the world. How it changes your heart. This is no different from saying that people who have faced death, or gone to university, or travelled the world have fundamentally different life experiences and different knowledge than those who have not experienced those things. It's just that mothers, and parents, are a larger group, and so their recognition of themselves as a group with certain fundamental likenesses is perhaps more obvious in the culture.
So, yes: mothers do identify as a group and do bond over the similarities in their experiences (not least among these: oh my god did you know that it would be like this?) and do sympathize with each other over certain common struggles that they - rightly or wrongly - perceive to be unique to their experience as mothers. Because they want to, and because they need to. It's a whole different world out here in Mommy Land, and for many of us it will take the whole rest of our lives to get used to it.
And if we sometimes (and I do hope that it is only sometimes, because we do spend time in other places) act or speak or write as if you need a special passport to get to this place and to really experience and understand it, it's not that we don't respect your travels and experiences - we do, because we've been on many of those same journeys ourselves. It's just, well, you do need a special passport to get here and understand it for yourself.
It's called a kid.
You all? Have made this such a TREMENDOUS discussion. I encourage anybody coming to this post for the first - or the eleventh - time to read the comments, and (of course) my contributions to the comments. Some of you have made me rethink some specific elements of my argument - ALL of you have me think, period - and I've explained that rethinking below, in the commentary. I heart you, Internets, I really do.

A company that helps people raise their credit scores is called a credit repair service.

The service will also help the client's creditworthiness by adding positive information, like on-time payments or a lower ratio of debt to income.

After that, the service you hired will get your credit report and start working to raise your score. A credit repair service can also change a person's credit score in different ways, but these services will cost more.

One of the most important things in your financial life is your credit score. You can save money on loans and get the best terms and interest rates if you have a good credit score. On the other hand, having bad credit can cost you thousands of dollars in higher interest rates and make it hard to get loans. So, if you want to improve your financial situation, you need to know how your credit score works and what you can do to improve it.
Making sure you pay all of your bills on time is one of the best ways to improve your credit score. Your payment history is a big part of your credit score, so pay your bills on time every time. Try to keep your balance low as well. The amount of debt you have compared to your credit limit is another important part of your credit score. This is called your "utilization." So, you can help improve your credit score by keeping your balance low. You should also avoid getting any new lines of credit unless you have to. When you open a new account, your average account age will go down, which will hurt your credit score.
A good credit score shows lenders that you are a responsible borrower and can help you get a loan, credit card, or a house. If you have a good credit score, you're more likely to get a loan with a good interest rate. Your credit score can also help you save money on things like insurance premiums and utility deposits. Landlords may also be more likely to rent to you if you have a good credit score. This is because a good credit history makes landlords feel more sure that you will pay your rent on time. When you think about all the ways a good credit score can save you money and help you get what you need, you can see how important it is to have one.
● Make sure you pay on time.
One of the easiest ways to fix your credit is to make payments on time, which means paying all of your bills on time. Your credit score will go up if you use less than 30% of your available credit lines. Diversifying your credit mix, which means having both revolving lines of credit like credit cards and installment loans, is another way to improve your credit score. In the same way, you should always check your financial report for mistakes and dispute any that you find. Even though these simple tips can help you improve your credit score, they can't compare to what trucreditrepair.com will do for you. We'll help you find your way through the complicated credit web, find ways to raise your score, and find smart ways to get out of debt.
● Keep the balance on your credit card low.
Having a low balance on your credit card shows lenders that you are a responsible borrower and are not taking on too much debt. It can also help keep your interest rates low because lenders will see you as a borrower with less risk. If you want to keep your credit card balance low, you can either pay it off often or use less credit. Over time, both of these things can help you raise your credit score.
● Use a variety of credit cards.
A higher credit score can also mean lower interest rates, which can save you money in the long run. Using different kinds of credit cards is one way to fix a bad credit score. This shows lenders that you can handle different kinds of debt, and it can help improve your credit utilization ratio.
● Look at your credit report often.
One of the best ways to raise your credit score is to check your credit report often. By keeping an eye on your credit history, you can find any mistakes or bad things that might be lowering your score. Also, checking your report often can help you make sure you pay your bills on time and keep your debt under control. By doing these things, you can improve your chances of keeping a good credit score. So, if you want to improve your creditworthiness, you should check your credit report often. It is one of the easiest and best things you can do.
● Limit how often you try to get new credit.
By showing that you borrow money in a responsible way, you can show lenders that you are a low-risk borrower they can trust. But you should only apply for credit a few times so you don't hurt your credit score. When you apply for credit, the lender will look at your credit report. This can lower your score. Because of this, you should only apply for credit if you are sure you will be approved. You can keep a good credit score and get the best loans and credit products on the market if you do these things.

I agree that sun protection is very important, but is sun really THAT bad? I live in a cold place where it's hardly ever sunny and I usually don't wear any protection. Let's be realistic, everybody is making these mistakes. There are so many rules that we are just not able to follow all of them.

An Earth Day thought: "Save The Earth" is a stupid slogan
Pat Cunningham
On this Earth Day 2013, it behooves us all to redouble our efforts to promote environmentalism and combat global warming.
But let's quit kidding ourselves that our goal is to "save the Earth," as the popular slogan goes. That's not our goal. Rather, our goal is to keep this planet hospitable to us humans and to other plant and animal life. Earth doesn't need saving. We do.
There's a passage in Michael Crichton's novel "Jurassic Park" that says it all:
You think man can destroy the planet? What intoxicating vanity. Let me tell you about our planet. Earth is four-and-a-half-billion-years-old. ...
