HONG KONG, Nov. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Sources' (NASDAQ: GSOL) joint venture subsidiary, eMedia Asia Limited, released in a study today that 85 percent of China's electronics engineering Decision-makers are pre-informed with specific company and product information prior to conducting a web search. China Decision-makers' number one media source for gathering information is from third-party industry electronics engineering websites.

The research shows that depending on the task at hand, Decision-makers rely on various forms of media to gather information. Decisions-makers' top three media sources for each of the following tasks are listed below:
- Hear about new technology: Electronics Engineering Websites (71 percent), Industry Tradeshows (55 percent), and Electronics Engineering Magazines (46 percent).
- Gain deeper technical analysis: Electronics Engineering Websites (59 percent), Datasheet Websites (45 percent), and Vendor Websites (42 percent).
- Find solutions to design problems: Electronics Engineering Websites (62 percent), Electronics Engineering Magazines (47 percent), and Vendor Websites (42 percent).
- Get industry news/rumor: Electronics Engineering Websites (72 percent), Industry Tradeshows (54 percent), and Electronics Engineering Magazines (50 percent).
The study of 3,468 China electronics engineers, which included 1,201 China Decision-makers, discovered that 63 percent of Decision-makers hold the title of manager or executive. Fifty-five percent of Decision-makers work in the regions of Guangdong, Beijing, Shanghai or Jiangsu. The top three industries they work in are consumer electronics, communications, and industrial controls/security devices.
Furthermore, in the 52-page report, 86 percent of China electronics engineering Decision-makers indicated product quality and performance to be the number one factor in choosing products, followed by the availability of technical support (60 percent) and competitive pricing (53 percent). Moreover, when searching for technology from vendors, 48 percent indicated they look for vendors that they recognize, while placing an equal weight (28 percent) on sourcing from both American and Chinese companies.
What about the Non-Decision Makers?
Download a copy of the report (http://www.eetasia.com/emag) to further discover how this group of Decision-makers compares against two other groups of lesser decision-making power -- the Influencers group and the No Influence group. Some of the observations are summarized below:
- Decision-makers tend to be more mature, with 47 percent over the age of 36, as compared with 30 percent of Influencers and 25 percent of the No Influence group.
- 60 percent of Influencers hold Design Engineering positions, and 61 percent of the No Influence group hold Design Engineering positions.
- The No Influence group hears about new technology on Forums/Blogs, 75 percent more than Decision Makers and 30 percent more than Influencers.
- The No Influence group is two to three times more likely than the other groups to rely on Weibo (microblogging) and social networking sites to learn about industry news and rumor.
What role does age play in media reliance?
Also included in the report is a section dedicated to how media is consumed differently according to the respondents' ages. The respondents are classified according to Baby Boomer (Boomer), Generation X (Gen-X), and Generation Y (Gen-Y). Here are a few of the observations:
- 74 percent of Baby Boomers hold management/executive positions, with 53 percent being a Decision-maker.
- 52 percent of Gen-X hold management/executives positions, with 36 percent being a Decision-maker.
- 13 percent of Gen-Y hold management/executive positions, with 15 percent being a Decision-maker.
- Regardless of age, the number one media source for gathering information is from third-party industry electronics engineering websites.
- Boomers and Gen-X rely upon electronics engineering websites, industry tradeshows, and electronics engineering magazines to find out about new technology.
- Gen-X and Gen-Y both rely more on forums and blogs than Boomers to hear about new technology.
The complete study is available for free download at http://www.eetasia.com/emag.

By SUSAN BLOWER
Indiana Correspondent
RUSHVILLE, Ind. — The Rush County Fairgrounds was hopping last week, not with show animals, pageants or rides, but with table after table of farm toys, attended by eager shoppers, young and old.
"This was one of our nicest toy shows in 12 years. All the vendors were happy and sold a lot of toys. It was a great crowd," said organizer, Mark Shepherd.
"This toy show is always good for me," said Bud Wall, a toy maker from Kokomo, Ind. "The crowd was good. Mark does a super job of promoting the show. He's one of only a few who doesn't charge admission."
A wide variety of farm-flavored goods are featured at the Rushville Farm Toy Show, including wreaths, ornaments, decorated windows, clocks, signs, and, of course, toys, both new in the box, handcrafted and custom made.
Wall designs and creates models of farm implements, such as discs, ploughs and cultivators, out of brass to 1/16th scale.
"These are not toys to be played with. Our motto on our business card is 'Big toys for big boys,'" Wall said.
His prices range from $100 to $900, he said. "Custom toys are holding their value. We are a year behind on orders. Some of the more intricate have 350 pieces," Wall said.
Wall took seven to eight orders at the Rushville show, to be delivered at next year's event.
A retired farmer, he began making models after working on the farm and studying their real-life counterparts.
"As the toy business got bigger, I retired from farming 4-5 years ago," Wall said.
Now 70, Wall said he wants to continue as long as his health permits.
"It doesn't keep me out of trouble, but it keeps me busy," Wall said smiling.
He has recently designed horse-drawn equipment. Amish workers flock the horses and hand-sew the leather harnesses. He said there are only about 2-4 custom builders of farm toys in the United States.
"We need more younger people to get into this," Wall added.
While the custom toy business is doing well, vendors of boxed new toys are experiencing a soft market in the struggling economy.
"It's been slow the last 2-3 years. I keep records, and there's a difference from 3 years ago. We still sell a little bit of this and that," said Jon Love, vendor from Losantville, Ind.
Love copies pictures from antique magazines to create his clocks, signs and pictures. He also sells Minneapolis Moline farm toys.
"I copy brochures and ads from farm magazines from the 1950s. I copy them so I don't destroy history," Love said.
"At the Hagerstown (Ind.) Flea Market, I once bought a whole stack of The Farm Mechanic, from 1918-31, to keep some lady from buying them and tearing off the covers for a framed picture."
"I laid down $100 for those. They are museum quality."
Love said he works hard to craft farm items and travel around to shows, but in the end it's all worth it.
"I enjoy the people. It's part of it. We've built up a clientele. But if you can't make money at it, you can't do it. Farmers understand that. We have a lot of retired farmers who spend (a lot) on items they wouldn't have spent 10 cents on years ago," Love said.
For his part, Shepherd is busy planning for his 13th year in the toy show business.
"I'm not worried about the toy market. I tell you what; we have a lot of good stuff for young kids and the older ones who like collecting. Some of the older folks bring their grandkids," Shepherd said. "I like to watch them come through the door and see them leave happy when they go home."
Shepherd's three-person crew – his wife, daughter and himself – spend 2-3 days setting up for the show each year.
"We're giving back to the community, and I love doing it," he explained.

Although millions of dollars are being spent on celiac disease research, the list of sufferers continues to grow and remains only one cure – the gluten-free diet. While I haven't been officially diagnosed with celiac disease, my doctor has determined that I definitely have intolerance to it. I have been reading a lot about gluten sensitivity and other health concerns that come along with it (systemic inflammation, lactose intolerance, food allergies, etc.) and would not be surprised if the way I have been eating (mainly processed foods, whole grains, sugars, dairy) have impacted my health – or lack thereof recently. I believe most of the food we ingest is poisoning in one way or another and I no longer want to do that to my body. Since September, I have been trying to greatly decrease, if not eliminate these things from my diet:
But, is gluten-free really enough? Our bodies are also lacking many essential nutrients such as omega 3 (fish oil), calcium, magnesium and vitamins D and B, among others.
Since September, I have been taking so many vitamins it's upset my stomach, caused unnecessary anxiety (when, where, how much) and become disruptive at times. This isn't even all I was taking in one day (and it made me crazy, very crazy)-
Needless to say, I was eager and relieved to discover CeliAct from my friend Elle over at Eat Run Sail . CeliAct is a supplement to the gluten-free diet that provides a complete nutritional solution for people with celiac disease. It provides your body with nutrients and compounds you need to stay healthy.
According to a number of recent studies if you have celiac disease and follow a gluten free diet, your need for vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are significantly higher.
CeliAct provides everything you need in five compnents, including:
For a complete list of nutrients included in this product and all of their benefits, visit here .
And while all of these nutrients are essential, did you know the most common nutrient that people with celiac disease don't get enough of isn't iron, calcium, or zinc? It's fat.
Stop being afraid of fat. You need it. Fat helps to produce new cells, build strong joints, and keep the immune system healthy. Without enough fat you may become underweight, deficient in fat-soluble vitamins, and develop brittle nails and hair.
To make sure you get enough, you can also take CeliAct Fish Oil . It gives you the extra fat that your body needs and is rich in essential Omega-3 fatty acids. Studies show that fish oil accelerates the healing process of the intestine by providing the critical nutrients for intestinal healing. The damage that gluten unleashes on your body results in severe inflammation of the intestines. Unfortunately, inflammation can exist even after you've made dietry changes to elminate gluten, which is why you need fish oil.
These two products combined together provide all the multi-vitamins and nutrients you need to not only recover from, but remain healthy after eliminating gluten from your life.
They are slightly expensive, but totally worth it in my opinion (I was spending almost double this on all the pills I was taking before) – and if you think of the health benefits, I would rather pay for wellness than to be sick all the time. I've traded in all of my other vitamins for this package. This is for a month supply-

Family Christmas Photos … Awkward [Photos]
Are you that family that always takes a family photo to send to your friends for the holidays? Are you that family that now will be famous for one of the most awkward photos ever taken?
Here's your sign!

Today is "Giving Tuesday" celebration for the Salvation Army of Kent County. It is very significant today, as the Salvation Army of Kent County announced they have received a $30,00 matching gift.
Here is an exciting, heart-warming story of people making a difference, and using food to do it.
The owners of a food truck in New York City are giving new meaning to the term "soul food" – by taking in troubled souls from a juvenile prison to staff the place and master valuable job skills.
I ran across this so-called Ping Pong video and thought, it's going to be a waste of my time. But, nooooooooo, it's actually very fun and addicting. Take a look while two Londoners play an imaginary game of ping pong in a metro station.
Flying can be a real hassle. It gets us there, but sometime not without a little pain. We all complain when we fly about the extra baggage charges, having to pay for snacks on the flight, lack of good food, lack of leg room, but, have you ever had to get out and push your plane? No, seriously, push your 'stuck' airplane.
If you have a little time on your hands today, and you probably do as you burp your way through recovering from Thanksgiving, check this video out. It's very cool.
Did you make it out shopping on Thanksgiving Day, better known at Black Thursday?
You know, it's what Black Friday used to start in the morning on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Remember those good old days?
Then some stores bumped it to midnight -- and customers lined up.
Happy Thanksgiving, everybody. My sincere wishes for all, is that it will be a happy, family, day. Oh, there is one more thing. ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!
Football on Thanksgiving. Now that is American. I can't remember when there wasn't a game or two on, and here in Michigan, it's been tradition that it's the Lions.
The annual fun-run Turkey Trot is today. I know it's Thanksgiving, but, before you eat, move your feet!
Gerald, a nearly 3-year old Terrier, American Staffordshire/Mix, came visiting and Andy Rent talked about him on his "Andy in the Morning" show for Wet Nose Wednesday.
Don't worry about having too many leftovers this year. Just turn them into a Thankscaking. Huffington Post Taste Editor Julie Thomson, came up with the idea, and I think it's brilliant!
Here is a heart-warming story with Canadian hockey fans singing our National Anthem. Here is what happened.

"Not up to par with the Myron Bolitar series."
Was not impressed with Nick Podehl. Would not search for any books with him as a narrator.
Expected more humor and depth of character as in the Myron Bolitar series.
Real disappointment.
Wish Mr. Coben would go back to the Myron Bolitar character stories.

As Syria's civil war drags on towards its fourth year without an end in sight, the plight of over two million refugees has worsened as the region faces its most bitter winter in living memory.
The Knesset passed on Tuesday an amended version of the "infiltrators law" that was struck down by the Supreme Court three months ago. A new detention centre for African migrants was due to open by the weekend in the Negev not far from the Egyptian border.
JC readers have their say
David Finlay, member of Alyth Reform Synagogue
A Manchester Reform congregant with "Muslim 'grandchildren' who are refugees" has urged support for a new branch of a Jewish charity assisting refugees and asylum seekers from around the world.
In August, the Prime Minister gave an interesting response to a question from the campaigning Harlow MP, Robert Halfon, about intervention in Syria.
Mona decided to flee her native city of Homs when teachers in the school she ran started to disappear.
One after another, they were abducted by militia forces loyal to the Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, and Mona figured she might be next.
For the first time since the Syrian civil war broke out over two years ago, Jewish aid groups are about to help its refugees.
A coalition of humanitarian organisations headed by the Jewish Distribution Committee (JDC) is planning to finance welfare programmes for children in the refugee camp of Zaatari in Jordan.
Jews who fled persecution in Arab countries have been formally recognised by Israeli legislators.
A new law, approved by the Ministerial Committee on Legislation, has made February 17 an annual date in the Israeli calendar to remember the 850,000 refugees.
Marking Refugee Week, the Jewish Council for Racial Equality is trying to get at least 1,000 signatures for its "No way to live" petition in support of asylum seekers' rights.
One of the most interesting things about the coverage of Margaret Thatcher's death was the revelation that her father, Alderman Roberts of Grantham, took in a Jewish refugee girl and gave her a new life. The story was similar to that of the Attenboroughs - the parents of Richard and David - who provided a home for two German Jewish girls who arrived here on the Kindertransport.

Sanity Fair
War on Teachers is Old School
Many teachers say it has never been this bad before.
For a long time, I have been quite certain that I would be an excellent teacher. For about 45 minutes. After that, I would be a felon.
Saints Be Praised
Which saint is doing the better job this year?
St. Patrick, whose feast day we celebrate this week with corned beef, parades and the occasional malted beverage, is the patron saint of Ireland, New York City, and the African nation of Nigeria. He is also claimed by Catholics to be the patron saint of engineers. So to all my Nigerian-Irish engineer friends, this is your day to rock. St. Patrick has your back.
County Goes From Asleep at the Switch To No One Behind the Wheel
Why are our local officials unwilling or unable to step up to prepare us?
Bob Conley, the assistant fire chief of Galena, Ill., told his troops to do the sensible thing when a tanker train carrying explosive crude oil went off the tracks and caught fire near his town last week. He told them to get the hell out of the way and wait for the fireball to burn itself out.
Hue and Cry Over a Colorful Dress
Like many matters debated online, this one grew heated in many corners.
It takes a lot for someone as fashion-challenged as I am to spend time thinking about a dress. I consider clothing first and foremost means to avoid going to jail. Like more than a few guys I know, my wardrobe is divided into two categories: the clean clothes and the stuff still sitting in the hamper.
Democracy for Sale
The Koch Brothers will spend close to a billion dollars to elect the Republican of their choice.

Syracusan Recalls Archbishop Romero's Legacy

On Feb. 17, 1980, Archbishop Oscar Romero called on President Jimmy Carter to stop sending weapons to his country, arguing that to do so would only bring more repression to his long-suffering people.
It's Not Cheap Gas — It's Free Beer

An Uncomfortable Focus on Heads of State
Michelle Obama appeared outfitted in a coat over a pant suit but nothing covering her head.
Last week, when President Barack Obama stopped in Saudi Arabia to pay his respects to the deceased King Abdullah, wags the world over went wild after first lady Michelle Obama appeared at the official welcoming ceremony outfitted in a flowing coat over her blue pant suit but nothing covering her head.
Lawmakers in Albany Need David's Law
(This may or may not be an exclusive)
A lawyer friend of mine says that whenever a law is named for someone, you can pretty much figure that it's a bad law.
Anonymous Critics of Mark Muhammad are Wrong-Headed
Mark Muhammad is a respected member of this community and is in a good position to deal with the issue of race.

Pearl Jam put on a free show in their hometown of Seattle this week in 1992. Nearly 30,000 fans turned out for the event, held in the city's Magnuson Park.
"It's a free show, it's a free atmosphere," singer Eddie Vedder said. "It's taken a while to actually make it happen, but we did make it happen. We went through the mayor and first he said no, and then everyone else in the community said yes, so he had to say yes, which is a great example about voting 'cause that's the other reason we're here, to register people for November."
Registering people to vote wasn't the only thing on the agenda. Pearl Jam also wanted to give fellow Seattleites a positive and entertaining way to spend the day.
"They don't have skateboard parks in Seattle and they don't have a lot of things to do and they just shut down another all-ages club," Vedder said. "There's a lot of youth here. Unless you keep them subdued, they're gonna rebel. Not everyone in this country is happy sitting home watching TV."
Joining the 29,000 people who abandoned their TV sets for the day were Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl of Nirvana, laying to rest rumors about any remaining ill feelings between the two bands.
Vogue magazine featured a very '60s-looking Madonna on the cover of its new issue this week in 1992. Inside, the singer appeared to be attempting a one-woman retro-fashion trend, bounding about in hip-hugger bell bottoms, some wild Janis Joplin-inspired hats and one barely-there see-through top.
In an accompanying interview, Madonna described the fans who hung around outside her apartment building as "not all that bright," and advised women not to sleep with their boyfriends for the first five dates.
The very recognizable duo of Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora were relaxed and relatively unmolested on the streets of midtown Manhattan as they went about filming the video for the title track of Bon Jovi's soon-to-be-released album Keep the Faith.
As an album title, Keep the Faith was a response to fans who had been hearing rumors at the time of a Bon Jovi breakup, rumors that had persisted through a spate of solo projects that saw release since the band's previous album, 1988's New Jersey. But "Keep the Faith," the song, had a wider focus.
"There's some dark things happening all over this planet at this moment," Sambora explained. "As a musician, as a musical reporter, so to speak, you can actually do two things. You can be an observer and kind of report on it, which I think a lot of bands are doing now. That's very relevant and very cool. Or you can actually comment on what's happening."
Sambora stressed, however, that Bon Jovi, who were of course a hair metal band back in the '80s, had not turned into a completely issue-oriented group.
"I don't want 'Keep the Faith' to sound like it's such a heavy kind of comment," he said. "That's not really what it is. It's still a lot of fun and some good rock and roll."

wozer.... bought a ticked on my "anniversary" :)
First of all, today is my 40th anniversary for being in Oklahoma!!!!
and to top of my great mood/feeling, I bought a ticket to fly to Germany for Christmas.
Will spend Christmas with my sis, and my niece (daughter from other sis).
I feel GREAT.
JoAnn, I was just plain on a roll. and that's not all... there are two guys in my hot garage... putting in a new garage door opener. That ancient piece of carp... that came with the house died a couple of weeks ago.
Today is a GREAT day. :)
LOL, at Kat... yep, they were hot... but not HOT. My door is working really nice again, and the new opener is soooo quiet.
I will be there for 15 days. I had to go and count... as I picked the days that cost less, in my overall time frame I have available.
My sis is online, so I will be able to peek in here.

Skeleton of Richard III may have been found -- but where will it end up?tags: LiveScience, archaeology, Richard III, University of Leicester
Archaeologists may have uncovered the skeleton of the lost English king Richard III. But if they have, what should be done with the remains?
That question is causing contention among Richard III enthusiasts, according to a new report in the Wall Street Journal. The University of Leicester, which is overseeing the excavation and analysis of the remains, has jurisdiction over the remains, but various societies dedicated to the king have their own opinions.
Two groups, the U.S.-based Richard III Foundation and the Society of Friends of Richard III based in York, England, argue that the remains should be reburied in York, because Richard III was fond of that city, the Journal reported. The Richard III Society, which has been involved with the archaeological dig in Leicester that uncovered the remains, is officially neutral — a stance which itself has triggered anger....

Deconstructing the draft media law
Human Rights Watch has released a report that highlights the proposed media law's shortcomings, giving the National Media Council recommendations to improve freedom of speech in the UAE. The council says 'Thanks, but no thanks'.
April 13, 2009 4:58 by Dana El Baltaji
New York-based Human Rights Watch (HRW) urged the UAE government to review the draft media law on Monday, claiming it will promote self-censorship among journalists. In a report titled Just the Good News, Please: New U.A.E. Media Law Continues to Stifle Press, HRW highlights the draft law's ambiguities and provides recommendations to bring the UAE's media laws in line with international standards.
The report identifies a number of articles in the draft law that caused the organization concern, including articles 32, which penalizes journalists up to AED5 million for 'disparaging' government officials, and article 33, which penalizes journalists up to AED500,000 for harming the nation's image and reporting 'misleading' information on the economy.
For article 32, the report explains that "…the law's vagueness exacerbates the problem. Journalists will have little guidance from the Article's enigmatic phrasing, which renders acts of "disparaging" government officials illegal, with no explanation or commentary regarding what sort of criticism might constitute unlawful disparagement. Such a vague law invites self-serving interpretation by the government."
HRW expressed similar concerns with Article 33, claiming the term 'misleading' is vague and can promote self-censorship among journalists.
Speaking after a press conference in Dubai on Monday, HRW's head of research for the UAE, Samer Muscati, said the draft law is "Ironic because it undermines the reform mentality. You can't have a free media when you have such exorbitant fines and punishments based on content. And this is why we've here encouraging them to reconsider the law again."
He adds: "And I think people lose confidence in the media if they know it can't focus on issues such as the economy. I think it's problematic because people need information, which they get from the media. And if they find that the media is restricted, then they'll have less confidence in an already deteriorating economic situation. It doesn't just harm the media, but also the society."
The old media law, which was passed in 1980, imposed fines as high as AED20,000 and sanctioned the imprisonment of journalists who broke the law.
In 2007, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Ruler of Dubai, decreed that no journalist may be jailed.

I'm trying to write a web app that looks like an iPad application, with offline usability. To do so, I instruct the browser to cache my files using a manifest, etc. When I try to ajax the xml, it works the first time, but fails subsequent times. Funny thing is, it "fails", but xhr.responseXML is correct!
This is only an issue in Safari, whether on Windows or on the iPad. The issue only manifests on loads from cache, everything works fine the first time.
thrownError is "", xhr.status is 0, xhr.statusText is "error".
type: "GET",
url: "data.xml",
dataType: "xml",
success: function(xml) {
error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
do_stuff(xhr.responseXML); // Why does this work?
Any ideas? My best guess is that the xml is being loaded with the wrong MIME type?
