Analyst: Amazon's e-book market share to shrink dramatically
Send this to a friend

With Amazon.com grudgingly moving toward higher retail prices on e-books, the online retailer can expect to see its dominant position in the young e-book market melt away, according to a top analyst. Credit Suisse analyst Spencer Wang in a new research report said he expects Amazon's e-book market share to drop from 90 percent today to 35 percent over the next five years. Apple's iPad is poised to grab a piece of the market, and Wang sees Google as a major player as well.
Here's a snippet from Wang's report via the Wall Street Journal's MarketBeat:
Near term, we suspect that the iPad and the new eBook agency pricing model, which requires that Amazon increase retail prices to be more consistent with Apple's pricing, will provide Kindle with the most market share headwind. Going forward, we can envision a scenario where Apple, Amazon, and Google eventually split the market. Therefore, we expect Amazon's share of eBooks business to fall from 90% currently to about 35% over the next five years.
Google is still engaged in legal wrangling over a settlement deal that will allow it to distribute millions of digitally scanned books, but the company is also working with publishers on selling new-release electronic books through its search engine.

Weakest among Ash's Bird Pokemon?

Bird Mons ~
I'm not going to include Ash's Tranquill into this. I'm going to be looking into each Pokemon to see where they stand. The first bird Pokemon was Pidgeotto that evolved into Pidgeot. Unfortunately, I don't think that it would have served better than any other Pokemon on Ash's team during that time. Ash was a newb and whether or not Pidgeot had great power that Ash could unlock, it's more so if he would have unlocked it. I would say that Pidgeotto had a diverse role in that he was the first flying-type Pokemon and one of his first Pokemon to catch before all the three starter Pokemon. It's not hard to say that more time was put into Pidgeotto. However, in the end, no matter the Gym battles, Pidgeotto played that plot any other of Ash's Pokemon did: finding a destination, poking a hole in Team Rocket's hot air balloon, clearing away smokescreen, and giving Pikachu a ride.
Let me first say that Noctowl does no longer know Hypnosis. That includes weaker attacks such as Tackle and unneeded attacks such as Foresight. What Noctowl brought was a Pokemon for the Violet City Gym (when he was suppose to have Pidgeot come back). Then it helped for when he was fighting Morrison. After that, he was mostly used to help in situations where his flying ability comes in handy or the fact he can fight off ghost-type Pokemon. However, later he came in to battle in the Sinnoh League. Clearly, he had improved a lot and I think that he can be quite strong. It just depends how the writers decide to try to portray it. Sometimes writers don't exactly get to do that and a bit of it was just to make older fans happy with the return of Ash's Johto Pokemon.
But why in god's name does Noctowl look like that annoying owl in Ocarina of Time!? D:<
It's the eyebrows I tell you, the eyebrows!!!
I never understood quite the well the reason why Ash chose to have Tailow. Yeah, he caught it just to prevent Pikachu from getting hurt anymore, but that's about it. I think that Ash had caught it because in all of his other regions, he had a bird-type Pokemon on him. Tailow was the bird Pokemon that Hoenn had to offer and well, it was probably the most obvious he would have caught given the situation a Tailow was beating Pikachu or not. In the beginning, the same as any other Pokemon in Ash's Party, he would lose battle after battle. Then the Pokeringer came that gave the focus on Tailow and because it was the focus on him, he evolved. More than anything else, he's just a reflection of the other bird type Pokemon, and his move set isn't that great.
Once again, a bird type Pokemon came into Ash's party as to help some plot that it could use its flying ability for and thus, Starly. If he were to have focused on Starly a little bit more instead of the writers making him catch Turtwig, then there could be a bit more to said Pokemon. However, Starly has started off to have a good basic move set and then when it became a Staravia after a god awful number of episodes, he did have quite a move set. It is in my opinion that Ash doesn't know how to really use his attacks well. Bravebird was a great addition, but he should have been a bit smarter about how he used it. Then there was the evolving to Staraptor and the move Close Combat, which I think was just to be able to overcome Honchcrow. Since the other Pokemon in Ash's party had a bigger role, Staraptor would have his plot end early. I don't see anything happening to him anymore.
The first Pokemon I have come to see as who would fair the weakest is Swellow. His move set lacks and Starly already had the move Aerial Ace. Noctowl served as an Owl and did what any Owl would predictably have done in the Pokemon World - fight mostly ghost Pokemon. That's why Hoothoot/Noctowl had mostly attacks that fend off Ghost-type Pokemon. Pidgeot had not shown to have any change in moveset and although he gained a bit more power, not a lot of it was shown. It would have to be the second strongest. Then in conclusion, Staraptor is Ash's strongest Pokemon. I'm basing this on the move set that Staraptor has and the fact he is stronger stat-wise than Pidgeot. He did manage to overcome a Honchkrow who was stronger than him too.
Thus ~
1. Staraptor
2. Pidgeot
3. Noctowl
4. Swellow
1. Swellow
2. Noctowl
3. Staraptor
4. Pidgeot
Swellow was used for one of Ash's tactics, Thunder Armor. Noctowl was only used to fight off ghost-type Pokemon when the episode had any ghost-type. Staraptor had an earlier conclusion to his own plot and lost too easily in the Sinnoh League to Paul's mons. But he did find ways to use him. Then Pidgeot would be number one granted that Ash would have kept his promise to get him after the Orange League to reveal to us how great Pidgeot has become. That of course depends if Ash uses Pidgeot well.

Although they may sometimes appear similar, paraneoplastic autoimmunity has a unique pathogenesis, different from the classical autoimmune diseases not associated with cancer. When distinguished clinically, paraneoplastic autoimmunity is more severe and often presents with a broader range of clinical signs and symptoms. Management of these patients is difficult and is usually centered in part on treatment of the underlying malignancy. Self-antigens recognized in the setting of paraneoplastic autoimmunity can be diverse, and the number of determinants recognized within a single antigen can be numerous. This review uses prototypic examples of paraneoplastic immune-mediated diseases and their associated malignancies to describe the mechanisms by which immune dysregulation can occur in the setting of cancer. Specific diseases covered include paraneoplastic pemphigus, Sweet's syndrome, pyoderma gangrenosum, thymoma-associated multiorgan autoimmunity, myasthenia gravis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, immune thrombocytopenia, and the paraneoplastic neurological syndromes. The malignancies discussed include thymoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia, among others. The mechanisms by which cancers induce autoimmunity are broken down into the following categories: disruption of central tolerance, peripheral immune dysregulation, and alteration of self-antigens. For each category, examples of paraneoplastic autoimmune diseases and their associated malignancies are discussed. Finally, mechanisms by which cancer treatment can lead to autoimmunity and examples of polymorphisms that are linked to both cancer and autoimmunity are discussed.

God bless you for caring about Saint Hilary Parish. As you know, we've had some major problems lately with the boilers, a break in the water lines between the gym and middle school, and so all of this costs money to repair. We thank the many generous souls who enable us to keep the church, hall, school, and grounds in good shape!

Sign up for eScrip today and designate our parish school, St. Hilary #137965399 as the recipient of your eScript points.
We are MOST grateful to the families of our parish and of St. Hilary School who have used this easy, free method of making a big difference in helping our school and our students.
Just go to www.eScrip.com and follow the simple instructions -- be sure to plug in St. Hilary School #137965399 when you register.
God bless you! Just last year, the efforts of people like you brought in thousands of dollars for our parochial school.

Please join us in Tarantino Hall after the 9:00am, 11:00am & 5:00pm Masses for Family Advent Wreath-Making! All materials will be supplied, but if you have your brass ring from last year, please bring it to use. You and your children can make an Advent wreath to help your family prayerfully prepare for Jesus' birth. This is a wonderful and holy tradition to uphold.
Please note that this family event will take the place of our regularly-scheduled Religious Ed classes on December 7.

This October, Bay Area icon E-40 will release his tenth solo album, The Ball Street Journal. While building up a rather extensive catalog over the past sixteen years, 40 has become well-known for his lyrically-delectable party jams, which cater towards his hyphy-loving West Coast fanbase. On the first official single from his forthcoming LP, however, the rapper born Earl Stevens has decided to change it up. On Wake It Up, the emcee is joined by Akon (who provides both a hook and production assistance) for a radio-request-worthy ladies jam. Unlike the previously-released Turf Drop, which only appealed to a localized Bay Area audience, Wake It Up plays to the satisfaction of hip hop listeners from coast to coast.

Valve cover gasket leaks are common after 60,000 miles. Symptoms will include oil drips under the vehicle and burning oil smell from the engine compartment.
Failure of the front control arm bracket bushings—often referred to as thrust rod bushings—is moderately common. One symptom is a clunk or jolt felt in the steering when braking.

2002 BMW 330i Questions
Hi how are you , in my car bmw 330i I can't reset the oil service light
I try so many times
It's going more than5200 km
what needs to be fixed and what"s the cost?
what do you think is wrong iwth the car
2002 BMW 330i Recalls
Upon deployment the passenger airbag inflator could rupture, increasing the risk of personal injury. BMW dealers will replace the affected airbag inflator modules to correct this concern.
This limited regional recall is for vehicles currently registered or first sold in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and equipped with Takata-brand air bag inflators. Upon deployment the driver and/or passenger airbag inflator could rupture, increasing the risk of personal injury. BMW dealers will replace the affected airbag inflator modules to correct this concern.
Airbags use a chemical reaction contained in an inflator module to create the pressure necessary to inflate the bags when deployment is required. These vehicles are being recalled because the front passenger airbag inflator may produce excessive internal pressure when deployed. As a result, the inflator module could rupture, causing metal fragments to strike vehicle occupants. Dealers will inspect and replace any defective passenger front airbag inflator modules found.

Hmm. I'll give it a try! Also, I thought I'd watch the first few episodes of Ojamajo Doremi Naisho, since Doremi Fansubs usually fansub decent to spectacular anime. I still don't know how I feel about the anime it'self, but Doremi wasn't kidding, you will be laughed at hardcore if you're caught watching this show. I've only watched the first episode, and I'm downloading the second, but it has something to do with a bunch of completely useless witch girls and their life at school. I'm also downloading PetoPeto San, which Doremi Fansubs fansubs too. I think it's yuri, don't remember the description though. I know it has a butcher woman in it. I'm looking forward to her.
I'm going to type up what I think of Pale Cocoon AGAIN. I had typed it up, but Azureus said, hey, let's upload 900kbs for a few minutes, then stop uploading completely, then go to 3mbs for a minute then go to 100kbs like normal and see what his computer says to that. Well, my comp didn't like it too much, and said "hey, let's delete this window, here, and that will fix everything."
Also, Yakitate!! Japan...Is that the anime with the bread and all that, or am I just crazy?
OKay, Pale Cocoon. In spite of what everyone is saying about Pale Cocoon and it's awesomeness, I didn't like it. The animation falls nothing short of incredible, and the basis seems very creative and original, sure. But, nothing happens. Literally, nothing.
Okay, before I begin, Pale Cocoon is a 22 minute long OVA fansubbed by Doremi Fansubs. It can be found for download with a bittorrent client http://a.scarywater.net/doremi/, near the bottom of the page. AnimeSuki didn't have this one, for some reason.
Ura restores archived records of a long ago evacuated earth, and Riko analyzes them. Ura is avid with his work and delves into the pictures of old earth, to try to escape reality. He wants to uncover everything he can about earth, He wants the TRUTH (). And it's suggested that he wants to, someday, return there.
Riko doesn't get much excitement out of her work anymore, though. Each record restored just reveals a bit more of humanities stupidity. Riko wants to quit the job she has now, and return to reality, and accept it.
To breifly give you the plotline of the story, Ura uncovers a music video and a video interview that inspire him to go to the surface, to see the earth. Something happens then. You don't really know what, becomes you mostly just hear and see the music video, but we do know the Ura is going to the surface. And then after that ends, we see Ura standing on....some.....thing which is suspended by a cable above the ground, and a monstrous crashed space ship in the backround. Then something els happens, I don't know what, and the cable holding Ura's ground and Ura up snaps. Then finally, as Ura is falling to the ground, we see earth, brilliant in it's blues and whites and greens, completely contradictory with the video interview with Yamaguchi, who describe the earth as dull and rust colored.
And that's it. That's the OVA. I have to tell you, the things I most enjoyed, were the music (especially that of the music video), and Riko. Riko was super cute. Especially in that outfit.
Now that that's done, a new series! Petopeto-san!
Okay, Petopeto san....okay...Petopeto-san is just...okay...deep breathe. AWESOME! I love this show. Alien racism!? Sticky Petopetos!! It's awesome! Okay, I'm tired from typing the thing for Pale Cocoon, so I'll just quote the Anime News Network:It's great! I love that teacher! The teacher is probably my favorite character. Hmm, what is her name, anyway?In a Japan not quite like our own, the "youkai" (supernatural creatures) have started living together with humans. Now, in an ordinary school, all sorts of "monsters" attend regular classes. A human boy, Oohashi Shingo, finds himself attracted to one of these creatures, a "petopeto" called Fujimura Hatoko. Petoko, as she is called, is a minor monster, with only the power to stick to something she adores. Like Shingo....

Miley, Anna
I need help finding these dolls to purchase. Miley and Anna are by Paradise Gallaries . They have been retired so I can't get them there.I have tried the big sites, ebay, amazon but did no good . I don't know any other places to look.I would love for all you super sleuths to find these for me.I need HELP! HELP!HELP!:smileyhugs::smileyhugs:.
I think this is going to be a tough one. I did some research but came up empty. One thing I guess you could do is periodically look on ebay. I did a search both for the doll's name and just for paradise galleries dolls because some people don't list the doll's name in the title. So, you can scroll through them. Good luck!
Here is a link to a chat room at ebay called The Doll Board. There are many experts there and they are always great for help like this.
I tried that link .But it didn't help.Thankx tho.:smileyhugs:
I would add that to a fave search on ebay and amazon...probably your best bet and post in a doll forum if anyone knows anything as well....
They will probably take some time to find....
this is "AnnA" . She has blond hair. Help me find her.
Please Thahk you.
Link didnt work for me... sorry

Bodegas Muriel Rioja Reserva Vina Eguia 2009
Bodegas Muriel - La Rioja - Spain - Rioja
Despite less than ideal climatic conditions, featuring storms which threatened an otherwise perfect year, most parts of California had an excellent year for viticulture. Chardonnays and Sauvignon Blancs were picked at optimum ripeness, and Californian white wine was just about as good as it could be. Surprises and overcoming difficulties summed up much of the United States' wine industry in 2009, and many of the results from Oregon, Washington State and all over California speak for themselves, with the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon grapes having developed healthy, thick skins and thus plenty of character and distinction. Elsewhere in the New World, South Africa had a very good year in 2009, and wineries across the cape of the African continent are proclaiming it a truly great vintage. In most of Europe, fine weather and punctual ripening periods produced some excellent wines, with many of the best coming out of France's Bordeaux and the surrounding regions. Merlot had an exceptionally good year in France, and wineries are proclaiming that the 2009 Merlot harvest was one of the best in living memory. Indeed, across most of France, ripening was relatively even, and red wine grapes such as Cabernet Franc, Syrah and others were reportedly highly characterful, with plenty of the required tannin levels with which to make high quality wines. Italy, too, had a very good 2009. Piedmont reported extremely favorable conditions throughout 2009, and their signature Nebbiolo grapes were more or less perfect when harvested, having benefited from the slight drop in temperature at the end of their ripening period. Veneto, too, had an enviable year, producing superb Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay wines in 2009.
For millennia, the Tempranillo grape varietal has been esteemed and revered by winemakers in their native Spain. These grapes are packed full of intense and fascinating flavors, often rewarding wine drinkers with notes of tobacco, leather, plum and herbs alongside their spicy and full bodied character. Their thick, black skins result in their wines being very deep red in color, and often high in tannins. As such, Tempranillo grapes are usually blended with other fine varietals to produce exceptionally balanced and delicious blended wines, such as those found in La Riot and other important wine regions around the world. Despite them being a notoriously tricky varietal to grow, their popularity continues to increase, and winemakers continue to impress the world with this excellent example of a red wine grape.
Spanish wines have always been packed full of character and tradition, making Spain a fascinating country for any fan of Old World wines. By far the most beloved and well known wine region in Spain is La Rioja, a lush and fertile region in the north of the country, famed for its superb single variety and blended red wines, usually made from Tempranillo and Garnacha varietal grapes. These two key grape varietals have been cultivated in this part of Spain for centuries, and are capable of expressing not only the rich, delicious fruit flavors they carry, but also the finer features of their terroir. La Rioja's terroirs are fine ones indeed, with a range of mineral rich soils, and climatic conditions which are ideal for viticulture, resulting in wines of real character and distinction.
For over two thousand years, Spain has been responsible for much of Europe's wine production, making the very best of native grape varietals, and more recently experimenting with and perfecting wines made from imported grapes. Of course, the region of La Rioja is renowned world-wide for the quality and characteristics of its wines, which benefit greatly from the warm, dry continental climate of the area, and the fertile soils of the Ebro river basin. However, there is far more to Spanish produce than the complex, aromatic and earthy red wine of this region, as a result of the vast range of wine making traditions and practices, and terrains and climatic conditions found across the country. The region Castilla y Leon produces some of Europe's finest white wines, and the sparkling wines of Cava and the sherries of Jerez are firm favorites for wine lovers around the world.

The wife of jailed rapper G. Dep, Crystal Sutton, has stepped forward to offer her reaction to rap star Lil Wayne snagging his memorable "Special Delivery" beat for a Dedication 4 track.
Although impressed by the song as a whole, Sutton placed extra emphasis on Wayne's guest feature.
"Bringing back the beat definitely makes people think of 'Special Delivery,'" she told XXLMag.com. "I have seen a lot of Twitter activity with mentions of 'the Harlem Shake is back' or 'this makes me want to listen to G. Dep.' So, ultimately, I am happy and play helps pay to keep going in Trevell's commissary." In particular, Sutton was delighted by J. Cole's verse, which described his struggling come up. She compared it to her hubby's hungry rhyme style when he was a rapper for Bad Boy Records. "[I was] surprised…happy that J. Cole rapped to the essence of my husband's style," she explained. "J. Cole told a story, growing up. That was cool 'cause everyone can relate to it, like driving your parents car." (XXL Mag)
In Cole's verse, he uses the "Special Delivery" beat to tell the tale of grinding as a teenager.
"When this sh*t dropped I was like 16/Tryna get some head from a mixed thing–big dreams/Say goodbye to ripped jeans, n*gga got a job/Had my little wad, worst fear was getting robbed/For my last 50 dollars that I had left over/5 dollars in they pocket, n*gga in his left shoulder/Minimum wage, $5.15/13's on the whip, kept my sh*t clean/Actually that was my mama sh*t" (Green Ranger)
Earlier this summer, reports surfaced which claimed Dep had plans to put out an autobiography in the near future.
In this passage the imprisoned MC tells a disturbing tale from his youth. One day, 10-year-old Coleman found a gun while playing with his friends near Harlem's notorious James Weldon Johnson housing projects. Dep vividly recounts the details of the exciting yet horrifying day, and of his adolescent crew's plans to cash in on the score. Moreover, he does it all in verse form. (This would definitely make an ill audio book.) (Complex)
Back in May, the incarcerated rapper discussed getting 15 years to life on a murder conviction.
G.Dep told The New York Post from Rikers, where he awaits transfer, that he felt he acted responsibly when he walked into a Harlem precinct two years ago and told police officers he shot a man in 1993. He said he wanted to clear his conscience. "Maybe at the end of serving time or after looking back, someone might feel differently," G. Dep told the paper. "But now I feel what I did was right." The rapper says his wife, who initially discouraged him from confessing, is beginning to understand why he came clean. He also told the Post he believes his daughter understands his decision — and his sons are as aware of his circumstances at they can be at just five years old. (NBC New York)

Re: Which players have the highest 'TENNIS' IQ?
Sometimes I was just in shock at how Hingis would hit mid-paced balls down the center of the court and not expect players to hit winners off of them. I think her "IQ" would have been higher had she hit the gym like Henin did and became more aggressive.

I recently purchased and moved into a new home, well it was new 30 years ago. I recently was up in the attic arunning some surrond sound speaker leads and noticed that the insulation was originally what appears to have been 4 inch fiberglass and on top of this there is a layer of blown in insulation of varying thickness. How good is this insulation for keeping heat in in the winter and the "HOT" out in the summer. I live in the Desert South West and it is very hotin the summer. Question is should I consider having this all removed and replaced with something like R30 bat insulation?
Thanks for your comments.
Batt insulation is the poorest there is because it allows infiltration of air. The convection currents within it rob you of energy dollars.
That is why the cellulose was blown over it. This is far better for insulating than fibreglas batts. If you want to improve on it, have more cellulose blown in.
Excellence is its own reward!

New DOD CIO makes public appearances
After nearly a year of anticipation, the new Defense Department CIO is in town and making appearances.
Teri Takai debuted Jan. 19 at a reception held by TechAmerica, where she called for partnerships between DOD and technology suppliers. The next evening, she participated in a panel discussion at an event hosted by Women in Technology.
"Technology is at the forefront of [Defense Secretary Robert Gates'] mind and the minds of other executives at DOD," Takai said at the TechAmerica event. "This is an important backdrop for the things we're doing." Those activities include cost-cutting efforts that can benefit from the smart use of technology.
The appearance drew a mention at TechLeader.TV, which reported that some who have seen the new CIO's offices are impressed. "I guess it kind of makes Suite 1600 at 1325 J Street pale in comparison," the site reports, referring to Takai's former office in Sacramento.
Takai served as California's CIO and came to DOD as Gates' cost-cutting plan was drawing support, opposition and a lot of questions. But she has the support of David Wennergren, assistant deputy chief management officer at DOD and former deputy CIO.
"We have a really great team coming in," Wennergren said in an interview at the Executive Leadership Conference in October. "Teri really understands what it's like to be a CIO. She has done it multiple times successfully, and she's going to come to DOD with a great understanding of how successful CIOs work. We've got Rob Carey taking my place as deputy CIO, and he's got great range across DOD and understands how things work successfully at DOD."
Among other cost-cutting measures, DOD is planning to reduce its data centers from 772 to a more manageable number by 2015. Alfred Rivera, director of the Defense Information Systems Agency's Computing Services Directorate, is part of Takai's team on that project.
"I think that you have to do some type of application rationalization before a big drag and drop," Rivera said at a recent AFCEA breakfast. The number of data centers DISA maintains has dropped from 59 to 14 since Rivera started because of consolidation efforts.
