Apple struggling to drop price of upcoming streaming music service
Apple has backed down from an effort to lower the subscription price of its upcoming music service, Billboard reports. It appears Apple will have no choice but to stick with the standard $10/month price used by other similar services, with the report noting Apple would have to absorb any losses from setting a lower price. The company was aiming for an $8/month subscription price, and an earlier report even claimed Apple had discussed a $5/month price with record labels.
Apple is still negotiating with labels and artists, and very little is known about what the final version of the service will look like, though it's "widely believed" Apple will replace the Beats Music name with its iTunes brand. While Apple is still reportedly pursuing exclusive releases for its service, industry sources are skeptical that the company will be able to outmaneuver competitors for such exclusives. "Apple is one of the biggest companies in the world. If they want exclusive content, they're going to have to get out the checkbook," one source told Billboard.
Report: CIA researchers trying to break iPhone, iPad security
Researchers with ties to the CIA have been working for years to crack the security on iPhones and iPads, The Intercept reports. The researchers presented their latest achievements at the "Jamboree," a secret annual gathering where attendees swap strategies for breaking into commercial and household electronics. Hackers discussed attempts to crack the security keys used to encrypt data on Apple devices, as well as efforts to modify the OS X updater and Apple's proprietary software development tool, Xcode, to insert malicious code onto Apple devices. If successful, these breaches would allow hackers to intercept messages, steal passwords and even possibly "force all iOS applications to send embedded data to a listening post."
Documents from 2010 to 2012 given to The Intercept by Edward Snowden note that researchers were "particularly intent" on extracting encryption keys for Apple products, but "do not address how successful the targeting of Apple's encryption mechanisms have been, nor do they provide any detail about the specific use of such exploits by U.S. intelligence." Neither the CIA nor Apple commented on the story, but Apple CEO Tim Cook has long touted privacy as a core value and has previously criticized the actions of U.S. intelligence agencies and law enforcement on such matters.
Apple increases iPhone prices in Canada
Apple has increased the price of unlocked iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus units in Canada by approximately 12 to 14 percent, likely owing to persistent differences in currency exchange rates between the two countries. The price of the basic 16GB iPhone 6 has increased by $90 CAD, from $749 CAD to $839 CAD, while at the other end of the spectrum, the 128GB iPhone 6 Plus gets a price increase of $150 CAD, going from $1,079 CAD up to $1,229 CAD. With the gap between the U.S. and Canadian dollar having increased dramatically over the past four months, the previous pricing was significantly below the exchange rate, however these new prices now make Canadian unlocked iPhone models slightly more expensive than their U.S. counterparts, even after exchange rates have been factored in. This move follows a similar 20 percent price increase that hit the Canadian App Store this past January. [via iPhone in Canada]
Apple publishes official Watch battery life estimates; Power Reserve mode to last 72 hours
Apple has published official specs on the expected battery life for the Apple Watch, noting that the wearable device is expected to provide "all-day battery life" of 18 hours based on a usage profile of 90 time checks, 90 notifications, 45 minutes of app use, and a 30-minute workout with Bluetooth music playback, although the article is careful to note that "actual results will vary" as "battery life varies by use, configuration, and many other factors." Additional testing results estimate 3 hours of talk time, 6.5 hours of audio playback, 7 hours of workout time, and 48 hours of basic use involving four time checks per hour.
The document also describes the Apple Watch Power Reserve mode, which will provide up to 72 hours of time-check-only use — again based on 4 four-second time checks per hour. Charging time is also estimated at 1.5 hours to reach 80 percent of a full charge, and 2.5 hours to reach a full charge. Notably, Apple notes the performance claims are based on tests done using the smaller 38mm Apple Watch, stating that "a 42mm Apple Watch typically experiences longer battery life."
WaterField Designs releases new Apple Watch accessories
On the heels of Apple's official Apple Watch release announcement, new Apple Watch accessories have started to appear. WaterField Designs has debuted its leather Time Travel Apple Watch Case and Apple Watch Pad, designed to both protect and organize the Apple Watch and other related accessories such as bands. Available exclusively from the WaterField Designs online store, the Apple Watch Case ($49-$59) stores extra watch bands, the Apple Watch charger, Bluetooth ear buds, and other accessories in padded interior pockets and a choice of a leather or ballistic nylon exterior, while the WatchPad ($17) is designed to provide an elegant and protective surface upon which to place the Apple Watch while charging.
Apple reveals more Apple Watch apps on website
Apple has dedicated a new section of its site to Apple Watch apps. The site shows off a number of apps that were demonstrated at today's event — such as American Airlines and SPG — while also introducing a slew of other Apple Watch apps. We figured out many of these apps last October in our Early Guide to Apple Watch Apps, but some other apps now featured on Apple's site include Babbel, Expedia, PlayKids, Procreate Pocket, and Redfin, among many others. Also included on the site are Apple Watch games, like Rules! and BoxPop.
Apple Watch launches April 24; pre-orders on April 10th, prices starting at $349
As expected, Apple has provided an official launch date and pricing for the new Apple Watch at today's "Spring Forward" event. The Apple Watch will launch on April 24 in Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the U.S. Apple will begin accepting Apple Watch pre-orders on April 10th, and demonstrations and previews of the device will be available in Apple Retail stores on the same date.
The Apple Watch Sport model, which includes an aluminum casing, will retail for $349 for the 38mm model and $399 for the 42mm model. The standard stainless steel model will be available in a traditional or slate black finish and will retail from from $549 to $1,099 in the same 38mm and 42mm sizes, with specific prices depending on watch band selection. The solid gold Edition Apple Watch will be available in limited quantities, starting at $10,000 at "select retail stores" — presumably those which have been equipped with vaults.
Apple releases iOS 8.2
During today's "Spring Forward" event, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that iOS 8.2 is being released today. The new update includes an Apple Watch app that will provide access to the App Store for the new wearable device, as well as the ability to configure settings, transfer apps to the Apple Watch, and even watch information and preview videos on the Apple Watch before buying one. iOS 8.2 is expected to be available for download through the normal software update mechanisms later today.
Update: iOS 8.2 includes a patch to remedy the FREAK security flaw.
Apple announces ResearchKit to assist medical research data collection
Apple announced a new technology during the company's "Spring Forward" event that will expand its HealthKit framework to aid in medical research. ResearchKit will allow users who wish to participate in research studies to opt into an app or service that will automatically collect medical data from their iPhone and securely and privately submit it to researchers. Apple has already partnered with universities and hospitals to help build apps that will allow them to further the study of conditions such as Parkinson's Disease and breast cancer. Apple COO Jeff Williams emphasized that the service will be entirely opt-in, demonstrating how users would have to sign up for research studies — in some cases even with an on-screen signature to indicate consent — and how all data would be submitted directly to researchers securely and privately, and that such data is not even available to Apple. Williams also noted that as it is Apple's goal to make this platform and data available as widely as possible, ResearchKit is being released as open source. Five initial partner apps will be available for download today, and ResearchKit will debut next month.
Cook: 'every major car brand' committed to supporting CarPlay
While reviewing the new iPhone technologies, Apple CEO Tim Cook noted that "every major car brand" has committed to supporting CarPlay, stating that 40 new car models are expected to be announced this year with built-in CarPlay support. Notably, however, it's unclear what Cook means by "committed" in this context, particularly in light of Toyota's recent statement that it has no plans to adopt CarPlay in the near term.
Apple drops Apple TV price to $69
During today's Apple Event, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that the Apple TV price is being dropped to $69. While no new hardware was announced, the lower price was noted as a way to make the Apple TV more accessible and provide more users with access to content such as the new HBO Now service announced at the same event.
Apple unveils HBO Now channel on Apple TV
During today's 'Spring Forward' event, HBO CEO Richard Plepler, joined Apple CEO Tim Cook on stage to officially announce the exclusive release of HBO's new HBO Now streaming service on the Apple TV. The service will debut in early April and will be priced at $15/month, and Plepler noted that all you need to get HBO Now is "a broadband connection and an Apple device," including not only the Apple TV, but also iPhone and iPad users. While HBO previously offered an HBO Go service, this was tied to existing cable or satellite subscribers; the new HBO Now service will be available via direct subscription, providing access to all of HBO's past, current, and future content, including new releases such as the upcoming season of Game of Thrones, which Plepler noted will be available to those who sign up when the service debuts in April.
Report: Apple Stores to take appointments to try on Apple Watch
Apple Stores will be taking appointments for customers to try on the Apple Watch, according to a Wall Street Journal report. Customers will make reservations to test the watch in a "quiet showroom" setting, separate within an Apple Store. The report also reveals that Apple has researched platinum watch casings, but the company isn't expected to announce any sort of platinum-edition Apple Watch today. All will be revealed soon, as the event starts in less than an hour.

Apple Watch details leaked prior to today's event
A number of alleged Apple Watch details have leaked in the past few days leading up to today's Apple event. Sources who have used the Apple Watch say the device's battery will be able to handle 5 hours of "fairly heavy application use," besting an earlier estimate of 2.5 to 4 hours, according to 9to5Mac. Meanwhile, TechCrunch is reporting it will take the watch about 2 hours to charge fully.
Other tidbits from the 9to5Mac piece include details on the Heart Rate Glance, a yet-to-be-announced feature that will allow users to view their heart's beats per minute any time. The touch of a button will start the BPM monitor, which sources say starts reading the heart rate almost instantly and is "seemingly accurate." Apple has only publicly mentioned the watch's heart rate sensor being used with communication features and the fitness app. Additionaly, default glances installed on the Apple Watch will include: Fitness Stats, Activity, Clock, Weather, Music, Quick Settings, Calendar and Maps. The watch will also include Notification Center, accessed by swiping down from the top of the display while on any screen.

Japan Display vying to be Apple's primary display supplier (Update: new plant confirmed)
Japan Display is in talks with Apple about the possibility of manufacturing smartphone screens, Reuters reports. Citing a "person familiar with the situation," the report reveals that Japan Display and Apple are presently negotiating, with Japan Display looking for Apple to carry the majority of the 200 billion yen ($1.7 billion) investment in building a new display manufacturing plant. The discussions are confidential, but a successful deal between the two companies would attempt to have the new plant in operation next year, and would make Japan Display the primary supplier of displays for next-generation iPhones. The report notes the new plant would be expected to have a larger capacity than Japan Display's existing facilities in Mobara — a plant that is running close to its capacity, according to Japan Display CEO Shuichi Otsuka. Japan Display currently produces approximately 50,000 meter sheets of LCD screen per month, with some of the sheets being used for the iPhone 6.
Update: Japan Display has confirmed that it will build a new $1.4 billion LCD manufacturing plant starting in 2016, and a source within Apple has confirmed the plant will supply display screens for the company. Apple will also be "investing an unspecified amount" in the plant, furthering the possibility that Japan Display will become the primary supplier for iPhone screens.
Apple comes to the Dow Jones Industrial Average, will replace AT&T
Apple will be gaining a place in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, CNBC reports. Expected to take place after the market closes on March 18, Apple will replace AT&T in the DJIA with the opening of trading on March 19. "The DJIA is price weighted so extremely high stock prices tend to distort the index while very low stock prices have little impact," noted David Blitzer, managing director and chairman of the index committee at S&P Dow Jones Indices. He went on to outline how a recent Visa 4-for-1 stock split reduced the "technology weight" in the index, effectively making room for Apple after its 7-for-1 stock split last June brought its stock price down closer to the DJIA median price. With a $736 billion market capitalization, Apple is currently the largest publicly traded company in the world.
Apple extends iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program
Apple's iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program has been extended, as noted by iPhone in Canada. The program, which launched last August, replaces iPhone 5 batteries in select units free of charge — a serial number checker on the site confirms device eligibility. Initially, the program was set to run until March 1, 2015, but the program now claims to cover "affected iPhone 5 batteries for 3 years after the first retail sale of the unit." The affected devices were sold between September 2012 and January 2013, which means the program will extend until January 2016 at the latest.
Revamped Apple music service not coming until WWDC; new Apple TV later this year?
Following on earlier rumors that Apple's new streaming music service may have been ready for a March launch, a new report from 9to5Mac indicates that the new service likely won't be unveiled until at least June, when the company holds its annual Worldwide Developers Conference. Citing music industry sources that have been briefed on Apple's timeline for the new service, the report confirms that the new iTunes music streaming service is being developed, but notes that the company plans to introduce the new service as a beta at WWDC in early June.
The same report also notes that Apple is still working on a new Apple TV as well, which is expected to be a slimmer set-top box with an improved remote control and a redesigned operating system. It's also expected that Apple will introduce an App Store with the redesigned OS — a feature which has been long-awaited by many Apple TV users. Apple had apparently hoped to debut the new Apple TV as early as this month, however, the company is still experiencing issues negotiating with content providers.

Jason Statham
The 2015 BRIT Awards may have ended, but the party was far from over last night (Feb. 25)! Some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry celebrated the show (and their wins) at the Universal after-party.
The event, which was hosted by Bacaradi, was held at London's Soho House Pop-Up. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and her hunky beau Jason Statham partied into the night, celebrating the Model of the Year title she received the day before at the Elle Style Awards.
It's one of the most-anticipated movies of the year and "Furious 7" has just released a high-intensity trailer for all to enjoy.
Starring the late Paul Walker along with Vin Diesel, Ludacris, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez and Jason Statham, the forthcoming flick is slated to hit theaters on April 3rd, 2015.
They love to do just about everything together, and on Saturday (August 16) Jason Statham took his lovely lady Rosie Huntington-Whiteley out for a bit of exercise.
The "Expendables 3" hunk wore all black as he led his stunning crop-top-wearing supermodel lady on a brisk hike, and there was no shortage of shutterbug attention.
Giving Tinseltown a major testosterone boost, the cast of "The Expendables 3" showed up at the TCL Chinese Theatre on Monday night (August 11).
"Rocky" stud Sylvester Stallone hammed it up with his brother Frank Stallone on the red carpet while Jason Statham paraded his lovely lady Rosie Huntington Whiteley before the paparazzi.
Stepping out for a romantic dinner date, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham showed up at Matsuhisa restaurant in Los Angeles on Sunday night (July 27).
Always stunning, the English supermodel donned a pale pink crop top with light blue print trousers as she took her "Expendables" hunk's arm.
Picking up a few essentials, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jason Statham headed over to Bristol Farms in Los Angeles, CA on Monday (July 21).
The darling couple picked out their groceries and appeared to be having a fun time as they made funny faces at one another and shared a few laughs.
Bringing an end to his action-packed trilogy, Sylvester Stallone is back with "The Expendables 3" and the teaser trailer is nothing short of exhilarating.
Also starring Jason Statham, Jet Li, Mel Gibson, Randy Couture, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Wesley Snipes, Harrison Ford, Kellan Lutz and Terry Crews, the sure-to-be-amazing flick is slated to explode into theaters on August 15th.
Happy Friday, indeed! Lionsgate debuted the official trailer for "The Expendables 3" this morning (April 4) and it's sure to bring a smile to your day.
Boasting a bevy of big names, the action-packed film continues to bring audiences plenty of powerful scenes, pinning old school fighting techniques against new aged technology.
Leaving the cooking to the pros, Jason Statham took his girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley on a dinner date in West Hollywood on Tuesday evening (March 4).
The "Italian Job" hunk led his lovely lady into the Crossroads Kitchen restaurant while fans and shutterbugs clamored nearby.
Following the star-studded action at the Dolby Theatre, a bevy of beautiful celebrity couples headed over to the Sunset Plaza for the 2014 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
"True Blood" lovers Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin looked to be having a blast as they mingled with the likes of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck and Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum.

A Long Way from Rome: Why the Australian Catholic Church Is in Crisis
This insiders' examination on the deep crisis facing the Australian Catholic church asks why Catholicism in Australia has failed to maintain its relevance despite widespread evidence of a hunger for meaning, values, and a renewed sense of community. High profile commentators including Morag Fraser, Paul Collins, and Damian Grace explore the crisis at the heart of Australian Catholicism. They offer a confrontational analysis of the direction for the church set by Rome and of the way in which this is stifling local initiative and alienating large numbers of Catholics from the institutional life of the church.

A young lady walked into the office with her mother wearing very dark sunglasses. She wanted to know if her mother would qualify for Social Security Disability benefits because her mother was blind and unable to work. I explained that yes, being legally blind is a qualification for getting approved for Social Security Disability but we should discuss her condition and see which Social Security Disability program she would qualify for.
I asked if her mother was legally blind or just had poor vision. Her mother had had vision problems ever since she was born. At her last eye doctor appointment she was told her vision had deteriorated to 20/190. She had been working but as her eyesight was decreasing so were her hours at work. She knew after this last doctor report that she would not be able to return to work.
We discussed her work history to see which Social Security Disability program she would qualify for. Although she may not have worked full-time, she had worked consistently for the past ten years.
She did not have any assets that were valued over $2000. So she should qualify for both Social Security Disability Insurance and Social Security Income. Since Social Security qualifies legally blind as anything less than 20/200 in either one eye or both, she should automatically qualify for Social Security Disability payments. Both the mother and daughter were ecstatic, since both were worried about how the mother would provide for herself after not being able to go back to work.
She did not even have to go to her local Security Office and we completed her online application in the office that day. Both mother and daughter walked out of the office that day with their minds at ease.

Something most people would not know about me is that I actually wrote blogs well before I started working here. Now I have a small personal blog in which I talk about Product Placement in films. It's a topic that I really find fascinating, and I also realize that most others do not.
When I'm not writing a blog I can usually be found watching too much TV or a horrible movie. I am a huge Pittsburgh Penguins fan and try to make it up to see games in person as much as possible. I'm also a NASCAR fan and have been watching since the early 90's. My favorite driver is Brad Keselowski. He is outspoken and was really a pioneer in social media for athletes everywhere. I love documentaries and anything that Morgan Spurlock produces. He is truly an inspiration. This blog is my passion, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Latest Economics of coffee Stories
Shade grown coffee is grown under a canopy of trees – a technique hailed as environmentally friendly and sustainable for maintaining plant and animal life around the coffee plantation.
The Source Coffee Company empowers small coffee growers to rise out of poverty.
A case of coffee leaf rust is threatening a large portion of the coffee crop in Central America, threatening the jobs of local coffee growers. This, in turn, could lead to higher prices for those who enjoy a cup of Latin American coffee.
FRANKLIN, Tenn., Feb. 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- In the last decade, world coffee prices have doubled while coffee farmers' wages have decreased by 24%, leaving most coffee farmers subsisting as modern-day slaves. One new company aims to change that.
OAKLAND, Calif., Feb. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S.
BRACKNELL, England, March 1 /PRNewswire/ -- An increasing number of coffee lovers are not aware that their choice of coffee can impact thousands of people and nature in communities thousands of miles away. There is an array of labels out there -- each pledging to the consumer that their coffee is socially and environmentally responsible. But how can you differentiate between fact and fiction? What do these labels actually mean for the farmers, workers and their families and the natural...

A Robust Model for Gene Analysis and Classification
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The development of microarray gene technology has provided a large volume of data to many fields. Microarray data analysis and classification has demonstrated an effective methodology for the effective diagnosis of diseases and cancers. Although much research has been performed on applying machine learning techniques for microarray data classification during the past years, it has been shown that conventional machine learning techniques have intrinsic drawbacks in achieving accurate and robust classifications. So it is more desirable to make a decision by combining the results of various expert classifiers rather than by depending on the result of only one classifier.

Editor's Note: Jeff Israely, a former Time magazine foreign correspondent in Europe, has launched a news startup called Worldcrunch. For the past two years, he's been describing and commenting on the process here at Nieman Lab. Read his past installments here.
In 2011, when we launched our site, the focus was on building our product. Now, the next stage in the startup climb is to build the business.
As the editor, I still spend the majority of my time on the product side: helping to pick, produce, and package our news content in the best old and new ways possible. But I am also busy working with my business partner Irène Toporkoff on the essential how-to-make-the-product-make-money piece of the puzzle.
It's the first time for me on this side of slowly crumbling wall separating business and editorial, and it's a whole lot of fun. It's also a whole lot of hard work, made harder by the fluid and fraught state of our industry, the changing habits of news consumers, and the very fact that we are indeed a startup, with limited means and constant choices between the possible and the practical. There's an extra dose of awareness in the Worldcrunch pit of what we can call the Miles Davis rule of business: what you choose not to do matters just as much.
I know that folks in much bigger news organizations are grappling with some of the same choices and pressures. Stakes are high, budgets tight, time short.
Over the next three posts, I will try to unpack how it looks from my particular vantage point in a miniseries I will presumptuously call The False (And True) Dilemmas In Finding Your News Industry Business Model — laying out some of the big opposing choices our fledgling news company faces: B2B vs. B2C; paid vs. free; content quality vs. content quantity. Of course, as the title suggests, there's plenty of spillover within and across these apparent alternatives, not to mention over that once mighty wall. So let's talk business!
Until two years ago, B2B (meaning business-to-business) didn't mean much more to me than those yellow pages that didn't arrive at my home — or office.
The first time I met Irène for coffee to tell her about the project (mostly the product, as it were), she took it all in, asked lots of questions…and had this to offer as her first full affirmative sentence: "B…to…B."
She had both bought and sold digital content at previous jobs, and she knew that — particularly online — it is still easier to get a business, rather than the equivalent individual customers, to actually pay for something. It would be, Irène explained, B2B2C…business-to-business-to-customer/client.
The alternative path is to simply aim straight for the C. Be a destination site, build your brand, reach the consumer! Soon enough, we realized that this is still the big prize. It not only plays to our own sense of mission (and vanity), but also just seems like more fun: pursue your vision rather than sniff out the market and be forced to react to the needs of intermediary third parties. If we post it, they will come.
Anyway, those were — and are — the two choices of this true-and-false dilemma. And people (including potential investors) continuously ask whether we will be B2B or B2C. Timidly at first, and now with confidence, we say both. The B2B is a way to find revenue in the short term, while the brand grows and the B2C model reveals itself to us and the industry as a whole.
Of course, pursuing both is neither easy nor simple. Indeed, it's the implicit tension in many of the week-in, week-out choices we have to make, on both the business and editorial sides. A decision to focus on selling Article X to third parties may force us to forgo investing in some technical or human tools that could help us push the same article directly to readers. It also finds its way into our editorial choices: We might actually end up producing Article X rather than Article Y, which would have been better suited for our own site and our search for readers.
Major news organizations are also weighing the dilemma, as the old models fade and new opportunities present themselves. Reuters, traditionally a B2B and B2B2C outfit, wants to become more and more a direct source of news for consumers. The New York Times, which has always banked on readers reaching directly for the brand, is committed to its global syndication business as a steady source of additional revenue.
Nieman Lab columnist and news business guru Ken Doctor recently encouraged media companies to pursue lots of little golden eggs of revenue, now that the historical twin rivers of advertising and circulation are turning to smaller streams in a much more crowded information ecosystem.
Two years after that first meeting with Irène, and one year after going live on the website, we have built a nice little chunk of loyal readers who offer a mini egg of ad revenue — which nonetheless will alone clearly not be enough to build a business around. So we've just begun to sell our stuff to other media outlets. The potential syndication revenue is real, though may ultimately be more modest than we had once hoped. It also must be built one deal at a time, which requires run-up time and investment into sales operations, and/or working with third-party syndication services that take a major cut.
Where things stand today, in a world of digital pennies, there are clearly still some nice dollars to be made in print licensing. But what is equally clear is that the future is indeed digital. So your legwork and brainwork — your strategy — should be geared toward that future.
Being a digital-only venture, we don't have the monstrous dilemma of weighing what to do about our own print product. And yet we are (in a number of ways) part of the bifurcated world of the mainstream media. How important are those print dollars we can gather now? How long will print even be around? Should we focus instead on emerging digital syndication possibilities? Or should we move away, as much as possible, from B2B altogether?
As a Paris-based, French/American company looking to get our business rolling, we've had the good fortune of getting introduced recently to a successful U.S.-based French entrepreneur, Thibaut de Robien, who wants to work with us on both business development and our overall strategy. He is now busy pounding the pavement stateside and joining Irène and me (via Skype) on the hard thinking about these tricky choices we face.
One of the many strengths Thibaut brings is the very fact that he comes from another industry: online gaming. Beyond his know-how around digital user experience, his battle scars in a decade of actually finding a new business model for an existing product is a great asset for a news startup.
B2B or B2C — for us, for now, it's both. It's what one smart businessman said he likes to call "holding up some gas stations on the way to robbing the bank." That's the startup's outlaw spirit we like. But building a new company from scratch is also about being ferociously pragmatic — which we might also call preparing to thrive tomorrow by perfecting the art of surviving today.

|Millennials say keeping up with the news is important to them — but good luck getting them to pay for it
The new report from the Media Insight Project looks at millennials' habits and attitudes toward news consumption: "I really wouldn't pay for any type of news because as a citizen it's my right to know the news."
|The next stage in the battle for our attention: Our wrists
News companies have moved from print dollars to digital dimes to mobile pennies. Now, with the highly anticipated launch of the Apple Watch, the screens are getting even smaller. How are smart publishers thinking about the right way to serve users and maintain their attention on smartwatches?
|A wave of distributed content is coming — will publishers sink or swim?
Instead of just publishing to their own websites, news organizations are being asked to publish directly to platforms they don't control. Is the hunt for readers enough to justify losing some independence?

Satisfying a Craving
I don't miss the traffic or lines or lack of trees, but I sure do miss the LA food scene! What does it take to satisfy a craving for a warm bowl of delicious ramen? Well, in LA, it takes the effort to make several decisions: what kind of ramen do you want, which restaurant do you want to try, or how far are you willing to drive? When one lives in a town lacking in the quantity of cuisine choices, and sometimes quality of cuisine, you don't have a choice. This is what it takes:
1.5 hours of driving + 1 hour of waiting (on a list behind 25 other groups)
And was this effort worth it? Oh boy, yes it was. I won't be making a trek like that very often, but it was so worth it this one time to satisfy a craving that has been nagging at me for a while now (I blame watching too many episodes of The Mind of a Chef: Season 1!)

Crafting lately
I hadn't sewn anything in a very long while, so a recent request from my sister was great motivation to dust off the sewing machine again. She wanted a pillow case for her eye pillow, and without a pattern to follow, I had to create my own. It was challenging and fun and I'm pretty happy with the results! I couldn't decide between two different designs, so went ahead and made both pillow cases--one with a button closing the top and one with an envelope flap...
With the machine out and ready to be used again, I plunged into my basket full of untouched fabrics to see what I could sew for my next project. I had totally forgotten about this fun camping-themed fabric I bought a while back! It was perfect for a project that had been at the back of my mind for a while--a bag to hang on the side of my camping chair. I always have books, magazines, and other miscellaneous things that I want within reaching distance while sitting in my chair and wanted to make a vessel to hold it all. This was another good project to flex my pattern-making and sewing skills, and below is the result of my creation. The straps button onto the arm of my chair and there's even a pocket inside for my phone, which you can't see in this picture. I'm pretty happy with how this turned out too!
Well, with two projects under my belt, I was getting on a roll and plunged into a few more. Made a hat for my nephew, which has become an annual tradition--he has gotten a new hat every year for three years now. Here's the beginnings of it...fun fabrics!
Tried making mary janes for a friend who was pregnant with a little baby girl. I downloaded a free pattern from the internet and didn't quite love the results. The sizing was a bit off (which may have been my fault, I forgot to check the printing settings) and there were exposed seams. At least they still look pretty cute in this picture...
And lastly, I made another sunhat, for a friend's little boy. I think the quality of my work and my skills have been improving with every project I've made. Now, what shall I make next?!...

Book Club
I came across this card years ago and it gave me a little chuckle because it described our book club perfectly. Many of us didn't read the books but still showed up to meetings to hang out (and eat snacks, of course!) And others read the books but then didn't show up to meetings (to their credit, they sometimes wrote up book reports to make up for not being there in person.)
I started the little book club back in 2005. Even with busy schedules, and folks not reading or not attending meetings, we still had a solid group that continued to read (or at least attempt to) 3-6 books per year. We managed to keep this club going for 9 years and I loved it. Being part of the group encouraged me to pick up books that I would not have initially been interested in or even known about. It was also gratifying to be surrounded with friends that enjoyed reading as much as I did. And most importantly, it was just so much fun getting together to socialize, nerd out on books, and eat yummy snacks several times a year. After I moved, we attempted to continue the group for a short while with two reads, Gulp and The Cuckoo's Calling. I attended meetings via video chat, but it just wasn't the same anymore. Sadly, the book club has fizzled since then, and I am so bummed about it.
Nine years was a good run, and I am proud that I kept a club going for that long. I will always cherish the wonderful times I had with my own little "Bad Girls Book Club."

First Hike of the Year
I've been itching to go on a hike lately, so we finally got out and explored a new area today--a 6.5 mile trail in Toro County Park. Since I'm very out of hiking shape, the uphill climb was quite a challenge. It reminded me that I need to go hiking more often and get back into shape! It was a sunny day and we were surrounded by lush green hills and an expansive blue sky. We continued the trek at a slow and manageable pace and finally made it to the top of Eagle Peak, which rewarded us with a wonderful view. Sitting at 1600', Eagle Peak overlooks Monterey Bay and the Salinas Valley. It was a bit hazy over the bay so we couldn't see clear across to Santa Cruz, but I was excited about being able to spot Pt. Pinos and Moss Landing. What a lovely way to spend a Saturday!

Smart phones, gimmick or necessity?

I do not understand the craze of the need for a smart phone.
I have a basic mobile phone with which I make & receive calls & text messages. It has other functions that I do not use. I am not fully aware of all that smart phones can do but are we being duped into thinking that we must have the latest technology even if we do not need it? These things must cost more than a basic phone and I imagine most of what they offer is available on your PC, laptop or digital camera which most people possess.
Can anyone really justify the absolute necessity for such a device? A few years ago we managed quite well with just calls & text.
If you have a smart phone can you tell me what benefit it gives you and does it justify the cost?

It's true that we could live without many technologies, but I personally think that it is a bit different with smartphones... every time I see someone using a smartphone, they're minding their own business, not even acknowledging people around them... playing games, watching movies, checking email messages, etc.... I mean, I'm not saying you can't do it, but social interaction is a good thing...

One Last Peep
We woke up to sunshine which was the first we had seen in days so I was sort of feeling torn between racing home or spending a few moments checking out the Lake. We asked for some suggestions from the front desk and got a great tip to take the scenic drive up Prospect Mountain which was literally a few blocks away. The drive cost $10 but had several view points out over the lake ...
Last day of peeping
... my key. I thought that it would be unlocked but it wasn't. I went around front to yell up to mom (since I knew we had the windows open and were right above the main porch area) but I tried the front door and thankfully that was open. I carried some of mom's stuff down and AGAIN locked myself out although my recovery was faster this time knowing the front door was indeed unlocked, it still sucked because it was raining by now.

... that "crevices are your friend". Wedging shoe and hand in crevices we ascended upward. Only at one juncture did Casey's acrophobia (and common sense) kick in. With the encouragement of fellow hikers and the loan of a stout walking stick, Casey grabbed the stick and using the awesome power of her new P90X upper body strength, pulled herself up over the immense bolder standing between her and victory at the top.

Ticonderoga (52 miles)

It seems inevitable that I will ride with him till Vermont. He was being easy going and told me I could stay in Ticonderoga at his hotel if I wanted. A bed, shower, and free breakfast was appealing so I ...
Prospect Mountain
We had to take the hike up Prospect Mountain. It was almost 2 miles to the top and it was a hike straight up! It was a great hike and once at the top the views were fantastic. On a real clear day they say you can see a 100 miles. It wasn't that clear but we could see pretty good. We thought the only way up was to hike but found a big parking lot at the top. We are glad we did the hike ...

Letters to the Editor
An honest effort is needed even in the Internet age
Dear Editor,
The recent discovery of the plagiarism committed by GOP gubernatorial candidate Scott McInnis over 20 years ago, bears out just how the "Internet Age" makes it easier to catch plagiarisms.
A story several years ago on NPR's All Things Considered profiled a University of Virginia professor's new innovation to catch Internet cheaters — a search engine that can locate patterns of phrasing and match them to other works. The device has already turned up a number of cheaters not only in academia, but also in other areas of our lives, e.g. the 2010 Governors race!
Reality doesn't seem to be a word found in my critic's vocabulary
Dear Colorado,
Dana Milbank got my name right — but that's about it.
Government: Go after large corporations
Dear Editor,
I am appalled by the current lack of regulation across multiple industrial and financial sectors. We are all well aware of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, and lack of regulation in the oil industry.
Please, Doug Bruce must be stopped!
Dear Editor,
The city of Colorado Springs is the adopted hometown of right-wing crusader Doug Bruce. Thanks in part to local ballot initiatives sponsored by Bruce, restrictions on the ability of the city to meet basic needs have seriously harmed Colorado Springs — and adversely impacted the quality of life of every resident. The area's chronic shortfalls for basic services like health inspectors, police and fire, and even street lights have repeatedly made national news.
AG says he's not motivated by politics but his own words show otherwise
Dear Editor,
In a recent debate hosted by CU and DU law schools, Attorney General John Suthers defended "his practice of filing amicus briefs in support of one side or another in lawsuits not involving Colorado."
Political consultants need to remember that no economy has ever been hurt by tax relief
Dear Editor,
On May 24, 2010, Rick Reiter, head of the campaign opposing the three tax relief ballot issues, said in a Grand Junction Sentinel article by Charles Ashby, "these three measures combined are going to cost almost 100,000 jobs." He added, "Those job aren't government ones, but private sector positions."
The 9.12 Project Colorado Coalition has not endorsed candidates — and will not
Dear Editor,
9.12 Project members who nominated or seconded candidates at the Republican District and State Assemblies do not speak for The 9-12 Project group to which they belong, or for any of the other groups in our coalition. The 9.12 Project Colorado Coalition is a volunteer-based, non-partisan collection of grassroots groups focused on building and uniting our communities around 9 American Principles and 12 universal values.
It wasn't our campaign issue that was such a dud, just your coverage
Dear Editor,
The story in last week's Statesman ("Romanoff fires 'Westwood bullet' at Bennet, but record suggests it's a dud") is a mosaic of near-facts, smoothly and cynically crafted by the Bennet campaign, as well as by the senator himself. As cited in the excerpts below, there is a willful attempt to confuse Westwood-style financing with traditional student loans, thus avoiding the issue at hand.
Colorado Council of Churches should give up its tax-exempt status
Dear Editor,
The Colorado Council of Churches wrote a letter to the editor urging the support of legislation to increase taxes to spend more on education using the sin of "Coveting thy neighbor" as an excuse. They cite the per-pupil spending as an indication of how bad Colorado is, yet ignore the top per-pupil spending in our nation's Capitol, Washington D.C., with the most consistent and worst academic record.
Faith community urges Legislature to let voters DECIDE
Dear Editor,
The faith community has long had a vital interest in the education of our youth. Early in our country's history, education of children was often centered in the Church. Many, if not most, of our private colleges and universities were originally started by some form of Church.
