More drillers coming up dry
Drilling failure rates continue to climb, making it more expensive to find new oil.
It's not a factor now in the climbing price of oil, but the big increase in drilling failures certainly doesn't portend cheaper oil down the road -- or a rosy future for the Western oil giants.
In 2009 Chevron's (CVX) drilling failure rate climbed to 35%. More than one-third of exploratory wells came up dry. That compares to a 10% failure rate in 2008.
And it's not alone: ConocoPhillips (COP) saw its failure rate climb to 43% in 2009 from 32% in 2008.
Higher failure rates mean that it gets more and more expensive to find new oil to replace what's been pumped out of the ground. Chevron's target is a modest 1% increase in oil and gas production this year. ConocoPhillips is forecasting a 2.7% drop in production in 2010.
The reasons for the climbing failure rate are pretty simple: The countries that sit on the world's most promising areas for new exploration are keeping more and more of that geology for national oil companies.
That limits Western oil majors to a few countries with promising geology and a lot of marginal and already explored regions. For example, in 2009, Chevron drilled almost half of its dry holes in the United States.
The response by the Western oil majors has been to buy instead of explore and to go for the gas.
Western integrated oil companies announced almost $100 billion in acquisitions in the last 12 months, according to Bloomberg. That's a 53% increase for the previous 12 months.
Many of these deals, such as ExxonMobil's (XOM) $29-billion acquisition of XTO Energy (XTO), have focused on natural gas from unconventional geologies such as the Barnett Shale formation in Texas.
That shift will have an effect on revenue and earnings at Western majors if oil prices keep headed higher while natural gas prices stay in their current slump. Increasingly what we think of as the oil industry -- the Western majors such as ExxonMobil, Chevron, BP (BP), Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.B), ConocoPhillips, etc. -- doesn't look like the best way to invest in increasing demand and higher prices for oil.
The few state-owned oil companies that allow individual investors to buy shares -- Petrobras (PBR) and Jubak's Pick Statoil (STO) -- look like a better alternative in the long run. See my original buy recommendation on Statoil here.
At the time of this writing, Jim Jubak owned Statoil in his personal portfolio.

Help Us With Our Awkward Living Room!
Good Questions
Q: My husband and I recently purchased a home, and I'm just having the most difficult time trying to get the living room to make sense. The front door opens into it, with no entryway to speak of. There's a definite lack of designated area for shoes, and guests end up tossing their footwear onto our hardwood floors.
The only solid wall in the space is right next to that door, opposite it, is a pair of double doors that open to a den/office/spare bedroom, a wall of mostly windows, and a tiny half wall along the stairwell (which is mostly unusable because of the coat closet which is across the room, opposite the front door). The space works fine, though not ideal, for just my husband and me, but it really doesn't lend itself to having guests over, which we would like to do more of! Any recommendations out there for making this space work?

On first impression, you're greeting with a big entertainment center directly on the left and an armchair right in front of you.
Have you considered mounting the TV to the wall or perhaps moving the TV to the corner? Or even mounting it to the shorter wall by the staircase?
I think if you can rearrange the room so that the sectional can move around to the wall that your tv is currently on and then you move the armchair so it's not in front of you when you first walk in, you may be on to something.
Add a shelf such as an Expedit to the left of the door, at a right angle to it, following the tile entryway, to break up the space a little, give the living room more privacy and a bit of entryway storage.
I agree with the above poster. Flip your bookcase to the other side of the window. Put the sectional into that corner. Hang the TV on the wall under the stairs. Put the chair in the front of the bookcases.
This will allow better flow through the room, especially into the den.
I would flip the sofa 180, and move the TV stand into the corner by the dining room(?). Leave the bookshelf where it is, and move the chair by the window. Then hopefully you'll have room between the back of the sofa and the wall on the left to place a narrow table to collect mail and keys and such. You could then have a designated shoe zone along the stair wall.
I'm imagining some sort of shelving unit right next to the door, basically right next to (or on top of!) the vent, and perpendicular to the floor. Have the shelving side pointing toward where a person would be if he just stepped through the front door, & then you have your shoe storage/landing spot. I like the ikea expedit series for an inexpensive, open solution which also functions as a type of room divider. Then, mount the TV onto the wall, approximately where it is now (hide the wires in the wall if you can, & then put cable box/dvd/etc) in the new shelving unit.
i'd also consider moving the armchair out of the room- i think it may be a bit much... if it's special, can you use it in a bedroom or something?
good luck!
labelle-wow, that was exactly what i was trying to say, & in about a tenth the words. amazing!
I agree with jenkwise's arrangement idea. I'd also add a large rug to help define the living room arrangement. As for the shoe problem, how about a small bench and a boot tray placed along the side of the stairs by the closet? You could add a runner from the front door to the coat closet to sort of lead people in and keep the grime off your hardwood.
I would probably move the tv to a corner entertainment unit in the corner where the lamp is so that you can arrange your furniture to be more inviting.
~ Sarah @ http://www.queenofdiy.com
You could simply place a basket behind the red patterned chair for you and guests to place their footwear.
I have a similar situation in my house.
1. Get rid of the chair. It is too big and doesn't work with the cleaner lines of the sofa and the mid-century coffee table.
2. Put a small Parsons table with a lamp and a tray on the staircase wall for mail, keys etc. Hang a mirror or some art above it. This creates a little entry area where none really exists.
3. Under the table put a tray for shoes.
4. Get rid of the bookcase and have a carpenter build a bookshelf/cabinet across the entire wall where the TV currently sits to organize all your electronics, books, DVDs etc. Keep the lines simple, like the Expedit references from earlier posts. Consider a two tiered approach to the cabinet/shelves so it doesn't seem so massive when you enter -- lower 1/3 section, 20" deep, upper 2/3 section, 12" deep.
5. Once you have the new built-in, do not cram it with books etc. (a la your current bookcase), add some art and ceramics and let the space breathe.
6. Hang some art on either side of the window.
7. Add an area rug.
It's hard to tell from the photos how much space there is on the wall under the stairs, but if possible, I agree that the TV should be mounted on the wall under the stairs. If there is empty space under the stairs, perhaps you could cut into the wall and make a storage cubby or cabinet for things like a DVD player. Or depending on what is in that wall and how deep it is, maybe you could even make an inset area to put your TV, rather than hanging it on the wall. I would turn the sofa 90 degrees, with one side along the wall with the entry door and the other side along the wall with the window. The bookcase could go to the other side of the window. The armchair seems a bit too bulky, so I would exchange it for a smaller chair, and put that opposite the sectional, near the opening to the other room (office?).
For visitors' shoes, you could have a small shelf at the end of the sectional, right by the door. This could also function as a spot to put things down when you come in.
I agree with MBK1 as the quickest way to do this... take out the chair at the bottom of the stairs, replace it with a round table and a tray underneath for shoes.
I have a couple general suggestions, though I'm not sure how attached you are to the furniture you have now... anyway, some things you might consider for the future:
- Replace front door and the overhead light fixture/fan. I know you didn't ask about it, but they are very "builder's special." If you want to personalize the space a bit, find a nicer light fixture and front door. Avoid the gold-tone metal & oak combo, which looks very dated.
-Get rid of the sectional & chair. They don't work in the space. Buy a smaller sofa, and either place it against the window & buy a chair to go where the L of the sectional now is, or place sofa where L of sectional now is. Center seating around the coffee table as a conversation area, rather than setting up the whole room around a TV.
-Instead of floor lamp, try several table lamps on end tables on either side of couch. Create several points of light around the room, and avoid using the overhead.
-Put up curtains on the windows. I would also paint all the trim white.
-Consider painting the room a different color. A dusty blue would be nice.
-Consider an area rug. Especially because the space isn't very clearly defined (odd shape) a rug will really help ground it and delineate a clear living area.
-Add plants. You could put a tall one in the corner where the floor lamp now is and another small one on the coffee table or a side table once you get some.
-Put up art. Try to find things you really like instead of just filling the walls with posters. You can get nice stuff on Ebay, or look around at local galleries, crafts fairs, or antique shops. You could put things above the tv or on either side of the window.
- Consider moving the bookshelf to where the lamp now is. I think that would make it look less like everything was squashed into one corner.
Good luck!
First thing - if you don't want shoes on your hardwood floor, either invest in a shoe rack to sit by the door or try taking the shoes to a coat closet of sorts after guests remove their shoes.
Find a small, narrow table and put it to the left as you enter the front door. It can act as a place to set keys, purses of guests as well as separating the space as a dedicated entryway. Then put mats or trays for shoes under the table or somewhere close by so that people know where to put their footwear.
I'd combine the suggestions of Team Builder and LaBelle: swap the positions of sectional and shelf, put TV on the wall under the stairs, possibly using a closed cabinet (with holes for circulation of course, but less visual clutter), and put an Expedit (2x4, probably, I guess 4x4 would protrude to much into the room and almost hit the stairs) next to the door.
Maybe you could close the backside of the Expedit, but not all on one side: I'd close the lover 4 cubbies so they are closed towards the living area and open towards the door - nice space for shoes! The upper 4 cubbies I'd leave open towards the living area so you can use them for storage or decoration and will be "shielded" while sitting on the sofa from people coming in.
You could even put some nice wallpaper or poster on the board covering the back of the Expedit and use it for decoration.
I'm not sure about that heating vent (or what is it next to the door on the floor?).
Is that a closet you said over by the stairs? Could you live without it? Seems like a lot of space taken up in the room for just a coat closet. Aside from that, I like the ideas of moving the sofa to the other end and putting the tv under the stairway if possible.
My suggestions list.
1) TV stays against same wall but must be hanging to it. Media centre moves to shelves on bookshelf or lower cupboard.
2) Two shorter book cases could flank the window. One of them, close to TV, with cupboard for media centre.
3) Two sofas to face each other, one under the window and one with back towards entry way.
4) Narrow, console table at the back of sofa, facing entry way.
5) Low, coffee table/biggish orroman at the far end of same sofa, opposite end of TV. Possibly with wooden legs to visually lift it off the floor and maximise perception of space.
6) Hanging pictures on top of book cases
7) Table lamps on top of book cases.
8) Rug beneath sofas to delimit space
Hope this helps

Monterey Pitcher from Bauer Pottery
Faith's Daily Find 05.23.13
Monterey Pitcher from Bauer Pottery
• $65
• Bauer Pottery
For sheer classic American style, you can't do much better than this Monterey Pitcher from Bauer, the venerable pottery company from Los Angeles. I especially like their brighter colors, which feel both modern and classic at the same time. The perfect pitcher for homemade ginger ale or lemonade.
4 Comments
In doing a bit of research into American pottery, via Franciscan Ware's Starburst pattern, then Russel Wright etc, I learned that Bauer itself went out of business in the early 60's and was resurrected via a private pottery studio in 2000, utilizing the original glazes, as found back in the 30's, and 40's.
The line, now known collectively as Bauer 2000 resembles many of the shapes used in its original lines from that period, though the glazes used today do not contain lead. And they have reintroduced Russel Wright's famous American Modern line that came out in 1939, and lasted until 1959 when Steubenville went out of business (Stuebenville was the original manufacturer of American Modern as earthenware).
Plus, i think they added a few additional colors, including the original 4 colors of the AM line for Russel Wright so you can mix/match original with new pieces in that line.
Ciddyguy, thanks for all of the Bauer history!
You are mostly correct, but there are a few details I can sort out. Yes, the original J.A. Bauer Pottery Company closed in 1962. The new company, Bauer Pottery Company of Los Angeles, started in 1998, though no original models or glaze formulas were used for the new line. Yes, the new glazes are lead free.
The Bauer 2000 name and bottom mark were adopted to differentiate the line from the originals and to prevent some unscrupulous characters from trying to pass off the new pottery as vintage.
Bauer Pottery is the licensed manufacturer of Russel Wright American Modern dinnerware. There are 20 pieces in the line, which is glazed in six vintage colors as well as four Bauer colors.
Hope this fills in some details.
Faith, thanks including Bauer as your Daily Find!
Rob at Bauer Pottery
I got a Bauer bowl as a present a few years ago - it's a great line!
Thanks for the clarification. Much of the info came from not just your website, but various others, and I was largely going on memory so some details may have gotten fuzzy since last week/weekend. :-)

A number of options may be available to help you secure big savings through debt consolidation.
The interest rate on a home loan is likely to be a lot lower than the rate you'll pay on other types of debt, so using your mortgage for debt consolidation could mean a big reduction in your overall monthly repayments.
However it can also turn a short term debt like a personal loan into a much longer term debt (your home loan). Unless you aim to make extra repayments where possible, you could end up paying more interest over the life of the loan.
Compare Home Loans using a Mortgage Broker.
A personal loan can be really useful for consolidating high interest debts like credit card balances. Along with the potential to lower the interest rate you're paying, the fixed monthly repayments of a personal loan make repayments easier to budget for. The set term also gives you a clear date for the debt to be paid off.
Consolidate your debt with an Aussie Personal Loan.
A good balance transfer deal can make it easier to pay off a credit card balance if the interest rate you'll pay for the balance transfer period is lower than what you're currently paying.
Look for a card that matches your ability to pay off the balance transferred while the rate is still low. And always consider the 'revert' rate that will apply to any balance remaining once the low rate period expires, as well as the rate charged for new purchases.
Your Aussie Broker can help you decide which method of debt consolidation would be best suited to your needs.

The park rat's powder stick.
You may have earned your stripes in the park, but you're going to need a more aggressive board like the Arbor Coda Snowboard to let your skills shine on the rest of the mountain. System rocker, a medium flex, and a twin shape keep you afloat and in control as you replace park jumps with backcountry booters, rails with log jibs, and crowded groomers with tight tree runs through bottomless powder.
System rocker uses several different design elements to provide true rocker performance while maintaining an incredible amount of edge hold and pop. It features a parabolic arc that is more rockered between the bindings and less rockered at the tip and tail to give it float in powder and a catch-free feeling on hardpack, while making turn initiation fluid and easy. The Grip Tech sidecut uses two additional contact points along each edge to allow for reliable edge hold on a rocker profile. A Power Ply sustainably-sourced wood topsheet replaces plastic to not only make it poppier, but more environmentally-friendly as well.
A triax-over-biax fiberglass lay-up gives it a responsive feel for greater precision and control in technical terrain. Lightweight FSC-certified poplar is used in the core for a smooth flex and lively feel, and dual strips made from fast-growing bamboo running down the center maximize pop. Rhythm sidewalls feature a blend of urethane and ABS to absorb vibrations for a smooth ride, and the sintered base absorbs wax well and resists damage from rocks and stumps hidden beneath the snow.

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This board is the bees-knees. One lap and I was in love. It has all of the perks of a reverse camber board, but the pop of a stiff camber board. The shape of the nose and tail make it float through the pow and chunder with no problem. BEST BOARD I'VE EVER HAD BY FAR

- Familiarity: I've used it several times

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Took the 162 for a couple laps at the resort, super impressed with this board, felt like a had a 154 underfoot, its so light, and the bamboo core really does give it a S#*$load of pop! really aggressive responsive board. fun to rip.

ll you really need to know about the Dell Diamond is this: it feels like it's in the middle of a former pasture. Whether the site was a pasture in the past or not is fairly irrelevant; the more important point is that the home of the Round Rock Express benefits from a bucolic setting. Yes, it's located next to a four-lane highway, but it's also located next to a large park. Though it's probably inevitable the area surrounding the ballpark will be developed in the next 10 years -– Round Rock is growing and there's already a big-ass Wal-Mart down the highway –- it's also probably inevitable the ballpark setting will always retain a country feel.
Year Opened: 2000
Capacity: 8,616 fixed seats; additional berm seating
Architect: HKS
Dimensions: 330L, 375LC, 400C, 375RC, 325R
Playing Surface: Grass
Website: roundrockexpress.com
Phone: 512/255-BALL
Ticket Prices (2009): Box Seats, $12; Home Run Porch Seats, $7; Berm/Lawn Seats (General Admission), $6; children 2 and under, free. Add $1 for walk-up sales.
League: Pacific Coast League
Parent: Houston Astros
Parking: There are 2,500 parking spots in the adjoining parking lots. You're not going to avoid the parking fee unless you want an extremely long hike to the ballpark.
Directions: 3400 E. Palm Valley Blvd., Round Rock. Take I-35 north to exit 253 (Hwy. 79/Taylor); take a right and go east 3.5 miles. The Dell Diamond will be located on your left.
When the Express moved up to Triple-A, improvements to the Dell Diamond were made, including a new covered seating section in left field. The new section is valuable for another reason: it provides some sorely needed shade in a ballpark that lacks much of it. There really is only one way to evaluate a Texas ballpark, I've discovered: figuring out how well the ballpark lets in the breezes, mitigating the discomfort posed by the high summer sun. The addition of the outfield seating changed the wind patterns to bring in a little more breeze into the ballpark, particularly in the left-field corner. The outfield bleachers are shaded, as is a row of Adirondack-style lounge rockers in front of the section. These seats rent for $5 in addition to the price of a general-admission ticket and must be reserved, but they're worth the money: with a breeze at your back and the game in front of you, they really are the best seats in the house.
Not that there are many bad ones. All seats are angled to face the diamond, including the corner seats. It is a cozy ballpark, as the first row of seats behind home plate is only 60 feet from home plate, and there's only nine feet of foul space down each line. The curve of the grandstand is accentuated by the curved dugouts. The ballpark's design follows a familiar model: the playing area is below grade, a grandstand curls from foul pole to foul pole, berm seating is available in the outfield, and a concourse rings the entire playing area. The requisite suites, press box and group picnic area comprises the second deck.
Like most ballparks built in the last 10 years, the Dell Diamond features plenty of diversions to entertain fans who can't sustain interest in baseball for nine innings, including kids' play areas, a pool and extensive concessions. The interesting thing is how the Express management balances all of this without being in your face with promotions and advertisements. During the game you get your normal range of between-innings ads (though the promotions seemed scaled back – a blessing for most hardcore fans) and there is certainly signage at the ballpark (the building used for the batter's eye featuring advertising that appears only between innings), but none of it is overwhelming.
Most families will end up spending time in the right-field area, the ballpark's entertainment center. For older kids, there's a climbing wall (the three fastest climbers to the top get their names and times on the scoreboard), a speed gun and a basketball court; for younger kids there's a video arcade and playground area. The entire area is supervised, with its own concession stand. For Sunday games there are inflatable play areas outside the ballpark.
In addition, right field is home to a pool, spa and volleyball court. This is a group area and sure to invoke the most envy from other fans. The Express media guide describes a railroad theme to the ballpark, but to be honest there's not a lot of it really apparent. The arch over the main entrance behind home plate was designed to evoke the entrance to a train station, the other entrance has more of a traditional Texas feel. Limestone is used as an accent throughout the park, as shown in the entrance above.
The Dell Diamond perfectly embodies the Austin ethos: it's professional without being too overwhelming, about as laid-back as you'll find in Class AAA baseball. And for the Texas baseball fan, that's enough: give them a good game, a good beer and a comfortable seat, and they'll be happy. Oh, and don't forget to bring a radio to the game -- the Express's radio announcer is Mike Capps is one of the best in the business.
The best concession offerings can be found not in the grandstand but in the outfield concession stand, where local chain Texadelphia offers its cheesesteak sandwiches and queso and chips. Yeah, it sounds a little unnatural to recommend a Philly cheesesteak sandwich at a Texas ballpark, but they're pretty tasty. And if you're not from the area, try the queso and chips with some extra jalapeno.
If you want something of a more traditional Texas nature – i.e., beef – head behind the concourse to the Nolan Ryan's Tender Age Beef Grill Stand, where burgers are grilled fresh, or to the Pok-e-Jo's stand, where beef BBQ is on the menu.
Also worth checking out: the shaved ice stations (kids can apply their own toppings, which probably ends up in some disgustingly sweet mixes), freshly prepared caramel corn, Chicago Red Hots, chili cheese fries and frozen margaritas. For those who really do eat at Hooter's for the food and not for the talent there are the chain's wings and fries.
Otherwise, the remaining concessions are pretty standard: Dippin' Dots, ice cream, corn dogs beer, pop, lemonade, hot dogs, cotton candy and the like. Yes, you can find Shiner Bock on tap, as well as a large selection of mainstream and microbrewed (Fat Tire) beers.
What to Do Before/After the Game
Round Rock is basically a suburb of Austin, the Texas state capitol and all-around cool place. While Round Rock does have some things to recommend it – it's the headquarters of computer giant Dell – it does not have an abundance of ambiance or nightlife. And as there's nothing within walking distance of the ballpark except for more pasture land, there's really no reason to stay close to it, either.
That's why you'll want to spend your time away from the ballpark in Austin. There's really no other place like Austin on the planet, though college towns like Madison and Berkeley come close. People in Austin tend to do things at their own pace and in their own way, frequently with a countercultural bent. There's a strong music scene – Willie Nelson lives nearby, while alt-county and modern swing both have deep roots in the area – and the local restaurant and literary scenes are lively. While most of Texas is conservative and pro-business, Austin is liberal, colorful, artsy and wholly unique.
It's fairly hard to find a bad meal in Austin, but there are some restaurants worth checking out. Elsi's Restaurant (6601 Burnet Rd., Austin) serves up great Tex-Mex and Southwestern food; we'd recommend the tacos ahorgados and the chicken breast in mole sauce. Downtown Austin features the Scholz Garten (1607 San Jacinto), a German beer garden dating back to 1866. The menu is a mixture of German specialties (German potato salad, Jaeger schnitzel) and Texas barbeque. The Z'Tejas chain (1603 West 5th Street), now up to 11 locations in five states, originated in Austin, and the original location remains one of the prettiest restaurants in town. North by Northwest Restaurant and Brewery (10010 Capital of TX Hwy. N) combines fresh microbrewed beer with a solid menu.
Above we mentioned Texadelphia and Pok-e-Jo's. If you don't get a cheesesteak at the ballpark, get one in the chain's original location (2422 Guadalupe Street) near the University of Texas-Austin campus. Similarly, the downtown Pok-e-Jo's (1603 West 5th St.) is worth a visit for Texas beef and pork BBQ.
These listings don't come close to scratching the surface of the lively restaurant scene in Austin. Quite honestly, you can find great food anywhere, and sometimes in the most unexpected places. Even the takeout at the Whole Foods Market (525 N. Lamar) is outstanding.
With such an active nightlife, it's pretty much mandatory you spend the evening out after the game. Nightlife comes in all categories in Austin, ranging from bar-boned bars in downtown Austin (the action centers on West 6th Street, between Brazos and Sabine) to upscale bars and eateries in southwest Austin.
However, with great live music throughout the area, you should begin your nightlife search at one of the established clubs. The Continental Club (1315 S. Congress Av.) is an Austin legend, beginning life as a hotspot for hipsters in 1957 and turning into a burlesque club before becoming a live-music hotspot in the late 1970s, where the likes of Joe Ely, Stevie Ray Vaughn and Kinky Friedman made their starts. Local legends Heybale still performs there, as do the likes of Dale Watson and the reconstituted Hot Club of Cowtown. Antone's (213 W 5th St.) is Austin's preeminent blues joint featuring local and national acts. Stubb's (801 Red River) mixes great BBQ and real Southern sides (okra, black-eyed peas) with live music. The thing to remember about looking for live music in Austin: don't be afraid to see an act you've never heard of.
Where to Stay
If you want to be close to funky Austin, stay at the Austin Motel (1220 S. Congress Av.; 512/441.1157). Located across the street from the Continental Club in a charming neighborhood, the Austin Motel was built In 1938 but the rooms have been overhauled in recent years. We're talking funky here – futon couches in the suites, mismatched furniture everywhere – but you can get a single for under $100.
Downtown Austin features more dignified historic hotels. The history of The Driskill (604 Brazos St.; 800-252-9367) is fully intertwined with Texas history; it dates back to 1886 and served as a second home for Texas political leaders when in Austin. Lyndon Baines Johnson and his future wife, Lady Bird, had their first date at the Driskill, and LBJ always held big events there. The Intercontinental Stephen F. Austin (701 Congress Avenue; 512/457-8800) opened in 1924 and similarly served as a political gathering ground before being extensively remodeled and reopened in 2000.
If an historic hotel is a little rich for your blood, there are plenty of other national chains with downtown locations: Radisson, Hilton, Four Seasons, Hyatt, Hampton Inn, Doubletree and Omni all have outposts there. There are also a slew of lower-priced hotels near the UTA campus, located north of downtown Austin.
Otherwise, there is an abundance of chain hotels close to the Austin airport.

February 24, 2014, 11:19 PM — After exploring the market for years, LinkedIn is formally entering China with a new beta site that will adhere to the nation's strict rules on online censorship.
The new Chinese language site, called Lingying, launched on Monday and hopes to tap over 140 million professionals living in the country, LinkedIn said in a company blog post.
The professional social networking site has been eyeing the Chinese market, where it already has four million members. But until Monday LinkedIn had largely been an English-language site to users in the country.
By launching the site, the company has also agreed to follow China's controversial regulations on censorship. Those rules generally require local sites to filter out politically sensitive content, either by deleting user posts, curtailing certain searches or shutting down user accounts.
On Monday, LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner wrote in a blog post that the company supports free speech and disagrees with government censorship. But after discussing the matter with experts, including business leaders and global human rights groups, LinkedIn decided more could be in gained in helping Chinese users connect to new economic opportunities.
"Extending our service in China raises difficult questions, but it is clear to us that the decision to proceed is the right one," Weiner wrote.
The Chinese site plans to only censor content when required, and LinkedIn said it will be transparent about its practices in China. "Extensive measures" will also be taken to protect company users' data, Weiner added.
It's unclear if abiding to China's online censorship will affect LinkedIn's English-language website. In February 2011, LinkedIn was briefly blocked in China at a time when local authorities were clamping down on mentions of a pro-democratic movement called the "Jasmine Revolution."
LinkedIn is just the latest U.S. Internet company to try to enter China, a market foreign firms have often struggled to compete in. Google and Yahoo once had major ambitions to expand in the country, but have clashed with China's demands on content control.
In the case of Yahoo, the company found itself in controversy over the jailing of a Chinese journalist. In 2004, the journalist was arrested after Yahoo provided Chinese authorities with his email records that detailed the government's attempts to restrict local media.

Fujifilm Finepix Z10fd
Review Date : Mon, 17 Dec 2007
Author : WDC Team
- Sample Photos: View sample shots of the Fujifilm Finepix Z10fd
The 7.2-megapixel Fujifilm Finepix Z10fd is a style-driven compact that features face-detection technology and is available in seven bold colours.
|Gorgeous design, brisk operation.
|ISO based anti-blur, fiddly operation.
Dressed to Impress
When you're spending less than £150 on a compact style usually goes out the window, but the Z10 is gorgeous. Available in seven colours with chrome accents, this all-metal beauty looks more expensive than it is.
Feature Packed but Fiddly
Inside, it's loaded with some of the latest technologies too. Face detection? Check. Anti-blur? Check (well, sort of). High ISO? You bet. Funky sound effect at switch on? But of course! The control layout is minimalist and unconventional though, with just three buttons and two multi-function rings on the whole camera. The dual-ring system is easy to figure out, but the rings are quite narrow which makes them fiddly to operate.
Noise Control
In use the camera is brisk enough but the face detection doesn't always find its target and, while flash exposures are good, the anti-blur simply raises the ISO, which makes for noisier pictures in low light.
Well specified for its price, images are punchy on a nice day but average when it's gloomy.

Dear Colleagues,
this may have been covered in previous threads. I currently use a D300 which i absolutely adore, my main glass is the 28-70 F2.8 and 80-200 F2.8 both old but good. I would like to add a full frame camera to my D300, but which one. I mainly shoot landscapes, nature but do do some sudio glamour/portrait work.
I like the look of the D700 but most on sale at the moment seem to be pricey with high shutter counts. The D800 has come down in price, but opinions seem mixed, the D600 was announced last week, looks the right number of pixels, but is probably £200 to pricey. I admit i was hopingthe D600 would have the body of the D700 wit hthe pro features but new sensor and processor within that body, i am not sure that the D600 is quite what i wanted.
So dilema is D800 or D600 as prices are not gulfs apart. sO opinions please!!!
If I was buying at the list prices, I would probably go for the D800. As you say, the difference in price doesn't make much sense at the moment. However, if you were to wait 6 months, I suspect the D600 would be available at a substantial amount less than RRP and may fit more readily with what you were thinking.
Adding an FX body is straightforward (apart from money) when you have no DX lenses and want to keep the DX body
Your D300 is comfortably good for 16x12 prints to 1600 ISO.
What do you want to do with more MP, different dof and better AF?
If you want to print A2 cropped or to have the best AF the D800 wins - with a small price premium.
If you want to wait perhaps 3 months for a D400 you could have another option.
Ideally you need USB 3 and a recent fast computer processor for either new body, but more so for the D800.
I'm also a D300 user and Love it to bits,
If I had the readies available and was looking to buy within the next few weeks I would go for the D800. Extra MP for landscapes (which you are more likely to enlarge) and for studio work the D600 is missing a PC connector and has a max sync of 1/200th. Not sure if this is a dealbraker as you have this facility on the D300 if you need it but certainly something to consider.
As Stu says it won't be long before the prices tumble, unless Nikon is planning on being crafty, keeping the prices of the D600 up to make the D800 appear better bang for your buck...
If the purse fits and as you say your into landscape then go for the D800e.
Had mine for only a couple of weeks, retirement present, plus daughters chipped in with some fast glass awesome piece of kit.
Yes I could have waited for the 600 or 400 or what ever next months camera will be, but at some point you have to take the plunge and hope that the price you pay doesnt crumble to fast.
Now I have to upgrade my PC monitor printer etc to take full advantage of the 800e's capabilities.
Now where did I put that piggy bank
At the moment I think it's pretty much a no-brainer between the D600 and D800 - but very sensible prediction [IMO] from Stuart. If you don't need the extra megapixels/want the chug of those enormous file sizes, you can [SFAIK] choose to shoot at a lower resolution and still get the benefit of the 800's superior build/AF extra features.
The D600 may well be around the £1400 mark in 6 months time. I'd hazard that the D300 successor at the top of the Dx line will probably offer better build quality, better AF and metering and much faster shooting speeds - and be not much cheaper than £1400 on release. All hypotheticals of course...
The D800 is by far the best camera in it's class and nothing to really touch it. This camera is even pushing Hasselblad, so if I were you I would snap it up. People keep on about large files, but extenal hard drives are now cheap to purchase to keep your images on.
With the current price differential between the D600 and the D800 it really is a no-brainer. The D800 wins by a long way.
£1650 VAT paid is "about right" for UK; based on US $2000 excluding taxes.
For reasons known only to Nikon the D600 is priced much higher in the EEC than USA.
UK D800 prices were similar to USA at launch.
With recent UK D800 discounts prices seem lower than USA.
In one of the daily e-mails I received this morning from Amazon.co.uk, they are now offering the D800 (body only) at £2070.
I suspect that the D600 is over-priced and will depreciate faster than the D800.
Saving a couple of hundred now could cost more when you come to sell.
It's worth considering the "total cost of ownership" before you buy. A genuine Nikon lens that was bought 30 years ago will fetch about twice its original purchase price on eBay whereas most of the independants aren't even worth listing singly.
I am pleased I have come back to check these forums, I too feel D600 is well over price, but its weight appeals to me. I am a current owner of E system Olympus having the 400 n 620, therefore the 600 possiibly would be the better of the 2, here comes a but, I feel the 800 is better value for money. I guess sitting on the shelf for 6 months and see if the prices get more realistic. Triumph
Prices are coming down quite quickly.
One reason is the exchange rate on UK imports of Japanese cameras has improved about 5% in the last 6 weeks.
My advice is when you are getting ready to buy start at http://www.camerapricebuster.com/Nikon_D600_Body_pc.html

A woman injured in a fire Sunday at the Super 8 Motel in Terre Haute has died of her injuries.
31 year old Randi Wallace died of smoke inhalation and suffered burns to 60 percent of her body.
The cause of the fire has been labeled as accidental but the exact cause has not yet been determined.
Wallace had been staying at the motel for the last 10 days and was registered to stay another 10 days.
She apparently was recently divorced and was in the process of looking for an apartment.
