Joint Care 2 is ideal for active dogs with years of wear and tear on their joints. It's also our recommended "step up" product for dogs taking basic non-prescription joint support - but who now need more. Joint Care 2 combines glucosamine, chondroitin, MSM, and antioxidants. Its generous level of glucosamine provides building blocks of cartilage, and chondroitin helps maintain healthy synovial fluid. MSM supplies an organic source of sulfur used in normal cartilage production, one that works more effectively in the presence of glucosamine and chondroitin. Vitamin C and other antioxidants work together to support the body's normal defenses. Soft Chewables for dogs only. Tablets and Granules for dogs and cats. Three delicious forms make Joint Care 2 super easy to give; try the liver-flavored tablets, liver-flavored granules, or cheese-flavored soft chewables.
DIRECTIONS: Give directly or, for ease of delivery, chews and tablets may be crumbled. For pets requiring more than one tablet, chewable, or scoop, divide between morning and evening. Wash hands after handling product. May take 4-6 weeks to see results. After a response is seen, product amount may gradually be reduced by up to one-half to a maintenance level. Directions for tablets and scoops:

A face made by stupid teenage whores on Facebook who think they are hot shit; yet, they are simply attention-seeking cunts. It is ugly, childish, and foolish for a little cunt to put up a "duck face" picture of herself where she perches her lips together and tilts her head about 30 degrees while taking a picture in her shitty bathroom mirror. Don't do it girls! You'll be a skanky dike slutty whorish bitch-like CUNT!
Dude, I can't believe Jenna put up a duck face picture on her Facebook! I didn't know she was an immature whorish cunt! I guess she is now...

The face in which one puckers out their lips, giving them the appearance of a duck. Usually seen in Facebook or Myspace pictures taken by unattractive teenage girls because they get the impression that it makes them look better.
What is she trying to accomplish with that duckface? She still looks bad, if not worse.

Jim Yoder
Jim advises the Environmental Sustainability majors and teaches ecology and conservation biology courses. He earned his Ph.D. from the Ohio State University and his primary research interests include conservation biology, landscape ecology, behavioral ecology and GIS (Geographical Information Systems). Past research has focused on population and behavioral responses of species to habitat fragmentation. His dissertation research at The Ohio State University was in collaboration with the Ohio Division of Wildlife and examined the effects of fragmented habitat on the dispersal and population dynamics of ruffed grouse in southeastern Ohio.
In 2006 he began a longterm collaborative study working with Shenandoah National Park research botanist, Wendy Cass. The research is being conducted by 2-3 EMU undergraduates per year (including summers) as well as SNP personnel. The project includes intense on-site field sampling as well as mapping and analysis of exotic plant spread and impact using GIS. The project addresses two specific research questions that focus on the exotic plants invading the Shenandoah National Park: 1) What is the rate of spread of the three most threatening exotic species beginning to invade the Big Meadows Swamp Natural Heritage area and 2) What is the impact of these exotics on the continued viability of the eight rare plant species located within the area? Both of the questions are of intense interest to park biologists and land managers as well as contribute to the broader ecological study of exotic plant invasions of native ecosystems.
Jim also ventured into study abroad education by leading a 6-week cross-cultural trip to New Zealand in the summer of 2010 with his wife Kathy and returning for a semester long trip back to New Zealand in the fall of 2012. The trip focused on sustainability issues related to tourism, natural resource conservation, and agriculture as well as indigenous Maori culture, restorative justice and New Zealand history. He and Kathy will be leading another six-week summer experience to New Zealand in the summer of 2015.
In addition to teaching, Jim is the curator of the D. Ralph Hostetter Museum of Natural History and the faculty resource person and chair of the implementation team for the Peace With Creation Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP), a 5 year initiative drawing together EMU students, faculty and staff around the theme of sustainability and how it relates to Anabaptist beliefs concerning creation care, peace and social justice.

With sweep, Sox can trim magic number to six
Peavy gets call opposite Hellickson in season series finale
On Aug. 24, the Rays sat percentage points ahead of the Red Sox atop the American League East, setting the stage for what figured to be a thrilling September finish.
Two and a half weeks later, the Rays are in the thick of a thrilling September, as projected -- only it's not the one they had hoped for.
Boston has pulled ahead decisively in the division, holding a 9 1/2-game lead entering Thursday's series finale against Tampa Bay. The Rays, meanwhile, have gone a Major League worst 4-13 since they last held the AL East lead, and have seen their AL Wild Card edge dwindle to just one game over the Yankees. Baltimore (1 1/2 back), Cleveland (1 1/2 back) and Kansas City (two back) are all hot on their trail as well.
One more victory would give Boston 90, a year after they lost 93 games.
"One thing we didn't do is set a number or a goal for the number of wins," manager John Farrell said. "We felt like if we took care of our daily work it would lead us to whatever that is, and hopefully it was in contention for this division title.
"But I think a number can also limit you. Sure, 90 wins signifies a successful year, but hopefully we don't stop there."
Boston sends right-hander Jake Peavy to the hill on Thursday, looking to build on the solid start to his Red Sox career. In seven starts with Boston since he was acquired from the White Sox at the non-waiver Trade Deadline, Peavy is 3-1 with a 3.55 ERA.
He'll be opposed by Rays right-hander Jeremy Hellickson, who threw 5 1/3 scoreless frames in Anaheim on Sept. 4, working on eight days' rest. This time around, Hellickson had seven days between starts.
"Taking a few days off was not a bad thing -- as bad as I wanted to be out there," Hellickson said. "It definitely helped. I felt a lot fresher."
In two starts against Boston this season -- both on the road -- Hellickson has looked very sharp. He allowed two earned runs in each outing, working seven innings in April and six in June.
"One through nine, they're tough," Hellickson said. "They're leading the division for a reason. They have a lot of speed and power. It's a very complete lineup."
Red Sox: Salty set for return
Catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia is expected to return to the lineup on Thursday after receiving a scheduled day off on Wednesday night.
Saltalamacchia missed five days last week because of a sore back, and Wednesday's day of rest was strictly precautionary.
"Just being a little [conservative], spreading out the workload as best possible until he's completely out of the woods, and he's not hindered by anything," Farrell said.
Rays: Treacherous path to postseason
Among the five teams within two games of the second AL Wild Card berth, the Rays' nine remaining road contests are the fewest.
That doesn't mean their road to October will be easy -- far from it, in fact. Tampa Bay has 12 games remaining against teams still in contention -- the most among all the clubs vying for an AL playoff berth.
Worth noting
• Tampa Bay first baseman James Loney has hit Peavy hard in the past, notching nine hits -- including four doubles and two homers -- in 28 at-bats.
• Rays pitchers have held their opponents to four hits or fewer a league-leading 20 times. All three of their losses when doing so have come against the Red Sox.
• David Ortiz sports a lifetime .500 on-base percentage and .773 slugging percentage in 28 plate appearances against Hellickson.

(SportsNetwork.com) - St. Louis has two first-round picks for the second consecutive season and would probably like to trade down from No. 2 overall to build on the windfall it got in the Robert Griffin III trade.
If forced to stay put, however, it would be a prudent idea to get the best offensive tackle on the board because Jake Long coming off a torn ACL and Rodger Saffold has proven to be injury-prone.
South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney remains the best pure prospect in this draft, but the Rams already have what Clowney projects to be (Robert Quinn), along with another solid end in Chris Long.
Texas A&M star Jake Matthews is the safer choice, but Greg Robinson's ceiling is much higher and he blew up at the combine, clocking 4.92 seconds in the 40- yard dash at 332 pounds, putting up 32 reps on the bench press and excelling in both the 3-cone drill and the short shuttle.
"I'm not at full potential right now. I still have a lot to go," Robinson said. "I started last year (and that) was my first season starting. Like the guys they have ahead of me like Jake Matthews, he started since he was a freshman. That's just something I feel I need to prove."
With their second pick at No. 13 overall adding playmaking ability with a bigger receiver opposite one of their top picks from a year ago, Tavon Austin, makes a lot of sense, especially if the Rams are really intent on moving forward with Sam Bradford at quarterback.
That said the two top receivers -- Clemson's Sammy Watkins and Mike Evans of Texas A&M -- figure to be long gone. That could turn the Rams' mindset to the other side of the ball and the defensive backfield where a safety like Alabama's Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix or a cornerback like Michigan State's Darqueze Dennard would be options.
2013 Record: 7-9
Top Needs: OT, WR, S
First Three Picks: No. 2, No. 13, No. 44
Number of Selections: 12 (1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7)
CALLING THE SHOTS: General manager Les Snead shares the load with head coach Jeff Fisher and both seem to be riding with the idea that Bradford will eventually turn into a quarterback good enough to win with. Let's just play nice and call that a gutsy decision, especially in the ultra-tough NFC West.
RECENT FIRST ROUND HISTORY: 2013 - Tavon Austin (WR, West Virginia); Alec Ogletree (LB, Georgia); 2012 - Michael Brockers (DT, LSU); 2011 - Robert Quinn (DE, North Carolina); 2010 - Sam Bradford (QB, Oklahoma); 2009 - Jason Smith (OT, Baylor); 2008 - Chris Long (DE, Virginia); 2007 - Adam Carriker (DE, Nebraska); 2006 - Tye Hill (CB, Clemson); 2005 - Alex Barron (OT, Florida State); 2004 - Steven Jackson (RB, Oregon State); 2003 - Jimmy Kennedy (DT, Penn State).

PokeBalls are biodegradable. Don't litter.
~Officer Jenny
Probopass : Ugly Mario
Machamp : 1-Man Army
Golem : Rockball
Snorlax : Eat Titan
9½/10 - hilarious! Poor Pokémon, being called like that though.
8/10, not bad. Pretty inventive, yet nothing completely special in the world of nicknames. Can't imagine many Pokémon being called that though. Fitting also.
Lame-o. If any nickname deserved a zero for the lack of imagination and vision, it should be this one. I guess Rockball is almost as bad a name as... well, Golem. :| Also, this name kinda fits through the whole evolution chain, so that's two even bareable things I find in this nickname. It is 2/10, then.
Someone would think this is funny, but it's pretty stupid in my opinion. Not a very positive nickname. Very corny. Well, okay, perhaps a slightly bit funny during a battle. "Eat Titan, use Rollout!" Still gets only 4/10 for me for the lack of taste.
Some of mine:
Blissey: Blitz
Drifloon: Drifter
Granbull: Grinder
Shieldon (male): Donald
Shieldon (female): Donna
Female Pidgeotto (Windie zz* [due to the Whirlwind it could've used]) 7
Female Venonat (PearlBailey [actress in Nat King Cole movie. Eartha Kitt was already taken for my Leapard. You know, evolution from Purrloin.]) 6
Male Lapras (Charmin 4. [As SOFT reset as "Please don't sqeeze the Charmin!" bathroom tissue x4.]) 7
So in a nutshell that's, Winndie zz, PearlBailey, & Charmin 4. Please comment!
Lets see...
Azelf - Azure Lite
Zoroark - Zacky V. (I doubt people will understand why)
Mienshao - Karma
Gardevoir - Sidney
Hariyama - Kurogane
Blissey - #Tank - Due to it's high sp def.

Pokemon X - 0834-2428-7190 - Name: Sage
Safari - Panpour, Frogadier & Wartortle.
Pokemon Pearl ~ 2323 0057 2065 - Name: Three
Let's see... I nicknamed so many Pokemon. Some follow themes and some are just flat-out insulting to the Pokemon. But a vast majority are references.
Few examples:
Kabutops and Aerodactyl: "Hex 182" and "Hex 183" respectively.
Reason: Look at my avatar and my signature. Follow the hints.
Blissey: Ignorance.
Reason: Like they say, "Ignorance is bliss." Also, Blissey looks kinda stupid. It's an egg with a face and limbs, carrying a smaller egg, that dies to the slightest slap.
Jynx: Abberation.
Reason: ...
Muk: Frank.
Reason: Grimer. Get it?
Porygon-Z: Version I: "Windows 95". Version II: "Windows XP". Version III: "Windows 7". Current Version: "Windows 8".
Explanation: The first nickname is... understandable. And as I kept replacing the Porygon-Z, the nickname got upgraded.
Electivire: PowerCable.
Reason: Look at its tail. I was gonna call it "Extension Cord", but that doesn't fit.
Generation V things:
Scrafty: PantShield.
Reason: Pokemon Special, BW arc.
Sigilyph: Chimecho?
Reason: Looks like a Chimecho after some... changes.
Cofagrigus: Jerky.
Reason: "This is an outrage! I was going to eat that mummy!"
Gothitelle: VampireKid.
Reason: "We're not f***ing vampire kids! We're goth!"
Vanilluxe: SundaeCone.
Reason: ... Just look at it. It's pre-evolution is an ice cream cone, and now it's a sundae with a straw sticking out of its brain.
Chandelure: CandleFace.
Reason: Look at it's first-stage evolution form. It's a candle with a face on it...
Looking for that ONE Pokemon that you've always wanted but just couldn't get because of the high costs?
Visit my shop and make a request! It'll only cost you Rare Candies and PP Ups (or PP Max). PT's Perfect Shiny Shop. The simple solution.
Image credits to: FairyWitch
Garchomp - Giggles
Reason: His form made me giggle the first time I saw. And the first form is Gible that goes along with giggles!
Mamoswine: Cousin It
Reason: Just look at Piloswine and goggle Cousin It.

Chop hops? Really?
Why don't you focus on surfing like a man instead? Crab style is going out of style.
Oh I've seen Trev bust clean full rotation 540 backflip-floater-barrels. It is nothing new in the WB area. He doesnt paddle to mase, as was said before, he airs!
Make sure to wear a unitard while attempting chop hops.....
how soon from the singlet and chop hops does it typically take for someone to sponsored/ covered in btches?

Customer Reviews
- Love it Review by Leslie
Quality Price Value I love this product because it is the ONLY cream I have been able to use to control my acne. I am 59 years old and my acne is mostly hormone driven. Do you know how many creams I've used from age 18 to 59? This is the only one that works for me. It is a little too highly priced for me (I think $60 range would be more in line) but I manage to pay it anyway because it works.
- Expensive, But worth it Review by Page
Price Value Quality I use this twice a day to keep my redness from flaring up. It is light enough for hot weather states like Florida. It is more costly than anything I have ever used on my face, but it works, so I stick with it. The downside: you cannot tell when the product is almost gone. I cannot be caught without my daily moisturizer, so I would love a package where I can tell when I need to reorder.
- Best Product for Redness Review by Erin
Price Value Quality This is the best product I've tried for redness -- and I've tried a lot. It does an amazing job of evening out skin tone, and the texture is full, but leaves skin dewy instead of weighed down. I can't say enough good things about this product.
- I love this stuff! Review by Leigh
Price Value Quality I had started to experience all the symptoms of rosacia. After trying numerous cheap products, I found the DermaDoctor Cool. Calm and Collected product. I am totally thrilled with the results - no signs of redness or blemishes. In fact, the symptoms disappeared in little over a week of starting using the product.
I have been using this product for over two years now and am a fan. - CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT THIS CREAM Review by marianne
Price Value Quality I can't tell you enough how much I love this cream. I have been using it for about 6 months, after finally learning that i have a bad case of Rosacea, and it is AMAZING. The only thing i don't love is the dispenser. I never really know how much cream is left. When i travel i literally buy a full container to ensure that i won't run out on my trip. You can never stop making this because it is amazing. Definitely a bit expensive, would expect it to last longer for the price, but it is the only thing that works for me. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE and NEED NEED NEED it:). Please keep this product going forever. xoxo
- Helps calm my skin with rosacea Review by CC
Price Value Quality I got rosacea for 5 - 7 years now and this is the best moisturizer for my face! It hydrates and calms my skin...especially in the winter. Thank you DERMAdoctor!!
- Awesome product Review by Aaron
Price Value Quality I acquired mild rosacea about two years ago in my mid-20s. I always had good skin prior to the rosacea so I really didn't like having blotchy, red skin all of a sudden. For the first several months, I tried all kinds of products with no success whatsoever. Then, I discovered this product and it worked very well. It took about 12 weeks to see the major improvement in my skin but it was definitely worth the wait. I am still using it to this day and my skin only seems to get better. I really can't even tell I have rosacea anymore. Awesome!
- This product saved my skin!!!!! Review by Marsha
Price Value Quality I have several skin issues and this is the only product that I have found that does not irritate my skin. I use it in addition to other DD products but when my skin becomes really irritated due to stress, hormones, whatever, I use the Calm Cool & Corrected and my skin clears up quickly and feels soothed.
- Very good at calming the redness Review by Lisa
Price Value Quality As I have aged my skin gets more and more red...Calm & Cool helps tone down the redness. I highly recommend.
- Great product! Review by Bronwen
Price Value Quality Calm, Cool and Corrected has been the only product that I've been able to use on my ultra-sensitive skin. I was in the midst of battling the rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis that covered my face when I discovered this cream. I was skeptical because I had tried so many products that didn't work and I was hesitant to pay the price. I relented and gave it a shot and I am so glad that I did! It's expensive, but it has been well worth every penny!

Over the last quarter of the year last year (2011) we received a bunch of new Scouts into the Troop. They all seemed real gung ho about joining and could not wait for the adventure to begin.
We are preparing for our first winter camp out with the new Scouts right now. In two weeks, we will be taking them up on Mt. Hood for their first weekend with the Troop and after the last few weeks and what's left of January worth the training, they will step off on their Scouting adventure.
Last night at the Troop meeting the Scouts demonstrated layering. Each Scout showed up and was inspected by the older Scouts in their winter clothing. They were given a pass or no pass on their choice of winter clothing. They all did great.
I gave out a bunch of spare stuff I have been collecting and outfitted about 5 Scouts with pants, sleeping bags, and other cold weather items.
When these new guys crossed over in November we talked about gear expectations and what they needed to have versus what we would provide. I explained to them that they were joining at the perfect time.. Right before Christmas and gave them suggestions for their Christmas wish list.
So last night as I talked with a few of the new parents and answered their questions and concerns the subject of gear came up. It became obvious that lots of camping gear appeared under the Christmas trees of many of the Scouts.. nay.. all of the Scouts got some piece of new gear.
One of the new Scouts came up to me and said he was excited about the up coming camp out. He asked if he was going to be cooking for himself and his buddy on the trip.. I replied that most certainly he would be cooking if he was going to eat. He got a huge smile on his face and said . YEAH!!! I got a stove for Christmas! So I asked him what kind.. "The Jet Boil SOL" he said. Now, I have said before that I am not a big fan of the Jet Boil… but these new units are much improved.. so I may be swayed a little. Then the little guy got me… he said he'd been cooking on his new stove at home. I said fantastic. His mom chimed in stating that he had made spaghetti and a few Mountain House meals.. then the Scouts told me.. "A MINUTE 45!" I said "Whats that?" He said he can do Hot Choco in 1:45! His smile was from ear to ear. Just then, I had a crowd of the new Scout patrol around me.. They were all sharing with me all the cool camping gear they had got at Christmas. I was smiling and laughing with them.. and of course shared the list of cool camping gear I got for Christmas too. One of the mom's told me that I had created a gear monster! SCORE ONE FOR THE SCOUTMASTER!
These new kids are ready to go and pumped up! They are embracing the adventure and I look forward to many adventures with them!
Last night's Troop meeting was the Scoutmaster Pay off!
Have a Great Scouting Day!

I remember joining scouts and getting some awesome gear for Christmas… ah, the memories :)

I bought a JetBoil 5-6 years ago (IIRC, and I wouldn't bet on that) and have been very happy with it. I wouldn't prefer it up on Mt. Hood in the winter; canister stoves don't do well at 20 F, I've read. Haven't tried that myself, though. I used it in my house the week without power in '07, but it wasn't below 40, then.

Delray Beach Impact Windows
Delray Beach is one of the most pleasant places in the United States in which to live, but residents must be aware of the dangers associated with living in the area. Although the weather is gorgeous most of the time, strong winds and hurricanes can make unwanted visits and cause tremendous damage to homes. This is why it is so important for homeowners to invest in impact windows. These windows are specially-designed to be able to handle the impact of high winds and the debris that can fly through the air during a hurricane. Homeowners in Delray Beach, Florida are urged to install these windows to keep their families safe, and there are numerous Delray Beach impact window companies from which to choose.
Without the use of these special windows, homes can become full of broken glass, debris and water. In fact, the damage caused by water allowed to enter a home is more devastating than most other types of damage associated with hurricanes. Though impact windows are more expensive than conventional windows, they can help Delray Beach homeowners to save money in the long run by reducing insurance costs and preventing damage. Interested homeowners should contact a Delray Beach impact window company today for more information.

Myspace's UX-Induced Death
There's an interesting thread happening on reddit right now, sparked by this post by a soon-to-be-terminated Myspace employee:
For better or worse I am a Myspace employee. Today, Myspace will be laying off 60% of the staff. This comes as no surprise to us or anyone who is vaguely familiar with the recent lack of success of Myspace. I work in the Beverly Hills HQ. So...ask away...I'll do my best to keep this up to date.
There are a lot of frivolous questions attached to the post, but the most valuable question asks, "What are the reasons for the failure of MySpace in your opinion?" The first, and most obvious answer: "[T]he primary failure of Myspace was usability."
Check out the thread on reddit for the full discussion, but here are some highlights:
One thing at MS is its very departmentalized. Not being part of UI or the player team, I did not voice my opinions that they both sucked & instead left it up to those teams to solve those issues.
I'd guess the problem was that the people were using the features. If they were doing surveys, I bet everyone was rating highly the ability to customise their own page. And (some) people do like a high level of customisation. People bitched and moaned at Facebook to allow it too. What they may have missed is a survey of people currently not using Myspace. Because I'd bet that a reason for leaving/using Facebook instead was the clean, elegant look of Facebook, compared to the eye-bleach that most 14 year old girls turned their Myspaces into. People like customising, but they don't like it when other people can customise too. Sometimes, cutting that customisation is a good thing.
It's indicative of what happens when the public makes decisions about how their products are designed: 9 times out of 10 what the public collectively wants is just plan awful. The fact is most people just aren't very smart, and the more you have in a group, the dumber they get. When you have a focus group of grandmas and parents and kids all sitting in a room together, and you ask them a question like "would you like to be able to customize your website?" most of them are going to think yeah, that sounds good! without even realizing what that will entail. The sad thing is, the people who made all those gaudy, flashy, obnoxious myspace sites liked them, but then they all went to Facebook because Facebook let them do what they wanted to do with as little bullshit as possible, and it turns out they didn't really want what they thought they wanted. This should be a cardinal rule for every business: people, for the most part, have no fucking idea what they want until it lands in their fucking laps.
Thanks to Justin Tulk for bringing this to our attention.

I don't get Vanveen's comment about Apple not having good UX. Part of it is marketing and other factors, but the overall control they have of the entire platform often makes the user experience much better.
Anyway, I think that MySpace's death was attributable to UX issues, but there are other aspects to the equation. The media promoted a lot of MySpace horror stories to youths at the time and this I think played a role. The racial divide of MySpace also played a role as white people flocked to Facebook and many minorities initial clung to MySpace as often talked about at NPR. And I think that the closed off nature of Facebook in the beginning was an interesting marketing edge as it always had sort of a closed off mystique.
Facebook is now so ridiculously dominant that they have their URLs and logos plastered on billboards and tv ads by other companies and a whole array of businesses listed at http://buyfacebookfansreviews.com that do nothing but help promote other businesses to people on Facebook. Facebook has become an amazing platform that is being widely used so much that Google is trying to get in on the action with Google+. I think that Google has a well-known brand name and all, but they are going to have a really tough road to travel based on all of the advantages that Facebook has and I think that Google is really struggling right now to compete in this social arena.
Actually, for me poor UX was the very reason i didn't JOIN myspace -- let alone leave. Facebook, albeit full of usability problems, had a more "neutral" first impression for me. At least it didn't pound me in the face with a reason not to join right form the beginning.

Apple would like you to believe that they succeed via UX, as that's a great story. But that's not really why.
Apple's success, if you actually look at the numbers, comes from the iPod and the iPhone, not its line of computers. The iPod does not have a terribly good interface. What it does have are iTunes, the first widespread legal downloading service, and a form factor that women would agree to carry (nobody remembers the "also rans" anymore, but trust me...look at some of the players from the late 90s...some (male) tech geeks would be ashamed to carry them, they were so dorky). These drove adoption, as even a superficial examination of the case history shows. (I like to point out--it's true--that the iPod sold fewer units its first year than Barry Manilow's Christmas album. iTunes wasn't out yet.)
The iPhone was not a UX-friendly phone. It was a crappy computer you could carry around and run very useful lightweight mobile software on. That is a classic example of one of Christensen's disruptive innovations. It wasn't about a fancier phone, it was about disrupting the computer.
Designers and Apple fans love to cite UX as why Apple rules. That's part of the Apple religion, and you can't argue them out of it. Especially because so many are designers without much knowledge of basic business strategy, marketing, or technical adoption frameworks. But strictly speaking it's not true. Then again, tell any fundamentalist that one of their "core truths" isn't true and see how far that gets you.
There are numerous reasons for the failure of myspace including, but not limited to, the UX. The argument made is somewhat valid however I think it ignores many of the other issues myspace had including it's inconsistency and considerable downtime of major features. This I think was mainly the result of an over-zealous release schedule.
Another significant failure of myspace was the lack of democratization. As Murdoch and company pushed more mainstream (and paid) content the user became less involved in the stream of information and the stream of information being delivered began to blend in with all the other mainstream media.
Facebook began to take over in large part because the users control the stream of information that is delivered by keeping the sponsored content unobtrusive. The content any individual user receives is then more suited to their tastes because it is delivered by their friends - not paid sponsors. Facebook also thrives on obligations. When you get poked - you poke back. When someone comments on your page you comment back - on myspace almost every comment you would get would be filled with bad html, loud videos that auto-played and spam from that band in Iceland that you never noticed you befriended.
Usability is among the reasons for the demise of myspace but it is hardly the only reason. Thing about it is - Facebook will probably suffer a similar fate somewhere down the road as tastes change and investors demand more return. It's just the nature of things.
I have really no prejudice against mankind in terms of sense to design, but I'm absolutely sure (and I have also experienced it) that most people have no sense to create beauty - and it's not some kind of negative judgement, they are great in something else. If I consider that I'm not good in eg. law or politics I don't want to do those things - it's not my speciality. But please, don't let everybody to design - for the same reason (and I don't even say, that I'm expert webdesigner - not yet, at least - but I think I have a little more sense to it than eg. most lawyers).
That's why I think, that letting people to have this kind of freedom on MS was a key reason of it's end (or downfall) - I left myspace for the same reasons: my eyes can't bare such a big visual noise, everything was different - differently ugly… The another reason was the music players and the big amount of flashing banners which permanently killed my OS (both on win and on os x), I won't visit a website which is ugly and kills my system, right? I don't think that the UI was worse than it's on FB, but if I can't use a good UI because of something else, well… I won't use it…
kurren, again, please stop talking. You don't seem to understand what UX encompasses. To say that Apple's success has nothing to do with the ease-of-use of their products and lump it in with the stereotypical anti-Apple argument (wherein some of your remarks don't even make sense)? Such an old and tired point of view.
Simplicity is UX. Simplicity sells. Apple's made a hell of a lot of money from iTunes purchases and I don't even need to touch on the Mac App store; so why you tried to even bring that up is beyond me.
The thing is that they didn't even realise what their USP was - they lost the social network battle several years ago, but they did (and still do) have every single band in the world. If they ever realise that and do something with it, instead of quixotically trying to compete with FB, then they might find a reason to exist. I'd say their true market is with the LastFM/Soundcloud crowd, but sadly I think their owners, the inexorably out of touch NewsCorp (they of the Times paywall #fail) won't be pushing in that direction any time of soon.
If you haven't already read them, check out Andrew Dubber's various blog posts on it - I think they sum things up perfectly:
Historically, I don't think customization itself is the problem. I think it stems from the lack of design in the default layout and look. Ads everywhere. Lots of clutter. They also lagged behind in terms of features and got swept by. This includes content. Ask anyone that tried building for MySpace 3-4 years ago and the technical infrastructure of pages was a huge hindrance as well.
I would also argue that users are not dumb. The types of survey questions you ask largely shapes what kind of information you get. There are lots of studies that wisdom of the whole works out quite a bit. But surveys have a lot of problems identifying problems when they pop-up without the right context or with poorly designed questions. They can be really helpful in many cases. It won't get you the next revolutionary step though. That is where the politics of MySpace gets in the way. I've heard that, at least historically, they were so marketing driven that the core of features got away from them and that for the right price, pretty much any company could put up any crap they wanted. Innovation died as marketing took over and the UI reflected it.
Reading kurren's comments makes me feel as if I stumbled into a preschool classroom right before nap time. Clueless...
@bochelord Now tell me that Apple's success is not based on UX...
Well, is not.
In terms of UX as HCI (which is what most people AND 'profesional' think of when talking of UX), most of Apple innovation actually comes from Xerox Parc.
When Apple actually started to design its own stuff they come up with iTunes (probably the only cross-platform software Apple made) - I don't think it's woth spend any time talking the flaws of iTunes, or its Social Network Ping.
Then came OSX, that is basically a skin over a BSD OS, that as almost all Mac OS runs only on proprietary hardware. You might 'hate' Window or Linux, but they run on 1000s of different hw/components combinations.
Apple so into computing that they even got rid of the word 'computer' from the company name - to better fit into what they want to focus: selling expensive gadgets.
The fact that there's people queuing all night outside an Apple store to buy an iPhone, or that they defend their toy against all criticism as it were their life, look really similar to fans lining up out a theatre for the Start Trek marathon or (with the due differences) religious extremists. The behaviour is the result of a simple process, it's called marketing.
If you consider UX, not HCI (even if the latter still is a bit weak as well), the iPhone is quite poor: you are restricted in the what software you can use to upload music/videos (I know you can 'hack' this) or the browser or if you are a developer the path to get an app published is a via crucis. The antenna-gate? The usability of the iPad?
Should we spend 2 words on the Mac App Store? Or the Apple website?
Back to MySpace, there's obviously a component of terrible design and UX/IA that contributed in the failure of the website - but it's really not the main issue which was essentially strategy (or lack of) and management (poor).
Facebook is as poor in terms of UX/IA and broad usability as MySpace is.
But FB's engagement power is tremendous, and again most of it marketing driven, and strategy built.
Content is part of UX (again, not as in HCI) and easiness of creating, accessing, sharing, engage, enjoy content is all part of a successful and rewarding User Experience. All things that Facebook does very well so much better than it does good old UX (as in HCI/IA/Accessibility/Usability package) AND so much better than all products (gadgets) Apple.
Is it possible the failure is actually the result of a complicated mix of numerous failures, including UX, marketing, and business strategy?
The problem with MySpace is that they allowed regular users to be both content producers and designers for their pages. Facebook does not allow users to design pages and instead relies on users only for their own content.
I remember a client that asked us to add content management features to their website only so they could quit paying our hourly rate to make regular updates. The website was a disgusting mess within 3 weeks because most people do not have design sense and are simply incapable of recognizing that they are producing crap.
I'm not sure I am comfortable commenting on the usability of Facebook due to the fact that it is one of the most "used" sites in history. Additionally, Facebook is the first social media site that deeply connects people and the the content that each person is producing on the site.
Good article. People can ask for features but it's up to professionals to decide when and how to put them in. Testing and task analysis are always good tools during the design process. Focus groups are pretty useless for requirements gathering. Individual interviews and surveys can be useful in that but the group think in focus groups is better suited for marketing. Last thing, Apple talks to users like crazy, they just don't hire them as designers.
The reason I left myspace is because the pages took so damn long to load and repeatedly caused my browsers to crash. Add to that the 'feature' allowing any moron to post a 1000x1000px .jpg to your page. Another reason was the shameless self promotion. Musicians weren't there to network, they were there to sell, and that irritated the sh!t out of me, despite being a muso myself.
Some commenters on here seem to think that UI and UX are not related to content. How strange. Myspace is a great example of how the UI allowed the content to be heinous, creating a hideous UX.
I don't know why people is still denying that UX has anything to do with it...
Actually even if you don't know what in the world is UX (see Tila Tequila) their answers are the same:
"Is not simple anymore", "Profiles are clunky and crappy", etc...
Now tell me that Apple's success is not based on UX...
To everyone who said, "It's not Usability!"
"Even Tila Tequila, the model and rapper who achieved fame by building an audience on MySpace, has switched allegiances. In 2006, Time magazine called her the queen of MySpace, but these days she prefers Facebook.
"I just lost my passion for MySpace," she said in an interview, adding that she does not even remember her MySpace password, even though her page still lists 3.7 million fans. "I haven't logged on because it's not simple anymore.""
I'm one of the many who left MS a long time ago. I can agree with most of the postings above - to some extent.
Yes, the target audience is one reason why Facebook succeeds over MS (MS = teenager = inconsistency: we all grow older by the minute)
Also, customization can be fun but MS took that to a level where it became unbearable for the intellectual user as well as the web design and web development experienced user.
Finally, as mentioned above, content is king. Lately there was not much of "content" to speak about on MS (when MS started one at least could find some good new music there). Self-portraits of youngsters for their own sakes just isn't enough.
I think it's important when considering UX (and customization in particular) to think about it in the context of users, demographics, and content, and not just in isolation.
Sure, all the MySpace customization led to bad UX (and maybe it was kind of crappy to start with). But I think the larger problem is that a heavy emphasis on a) music, at least originally, and b) extreme customizability, tended to skew the appeal of MySpace towards the tween/teen audience, and the less, er, intellectual side of it at that. MySpace offered themselves, intentionally or unintentionally, as something like the equivalent of the inside of your middle/high school locker. Should it be any surprise that the resulting content was more about showing off than being useful?
Look at Facebook's initial target demographic, on the other hand: college students. Some similar self-expression is invited, but at the more sophisticated level of those who have "moved out" and are forging an adult identity: what are your favorite books and movies, what are you thinking about or engaged in doing, who have you lost touch with that you'd like to find again, what kind of person are you (becoming)? The leap from there to a general appeal to adults (queue the complaints from 20somethings about their parents joining Facebook and friending them) is not so hard to make. (I'm not saying Facebook doesn't appeal to younger people too, but I think it does for different reasons than MySpace).
The kind of users you attract, and the things you encourage them to spend their time with you doing, is especially important for a site where virtually all the content is user-generated. So in a sense I agree with bb_matt, though I think he's only half right: it's about the content, but the UX (along with other things) funnels people in certain directions on the content they make.

Dissecting the demise of Myspace
"Great user experience is certainly a contributor to a user adoption, but I don't think it is the single factor that makes or breaks a company, as much as us UX designers would hope it does (job security and all)."
@Alan H: oops, I commented again ;)

@Alan H: oops, I commented again ;)
I am working on a social media network as a UI/UX designer and we have for a long time discussed the customization issue. After running some tests we concluded that customization has many sort falls and yes in most cases has to do with the fact
"People like customizing, but they don't like it when other people can customize too."
I don't know if this was the reason of the downfall of MS but I can tell that this was the reason I have left MS long time ago.
More over the usability or customization,reason for all success behind each applications are upto how early the idea or feature gets understood or clicked.
I've read few articles on Twitter users. 60% of the new users leaving the application within one week. But 80% of them are coming back once they understand the actual idea behind "Tweeting"
Thank goodness!!! And I really appreciate the comment re: multiple programs and or background activity!!! REALLY! I felt violated and that's why I left...
My 69 year old mother uses Facebook. She would have *never* used MySpace.
MySpace is for the younger generation and predominantly about music. Facebook is for everyone and about everything - an operating system more than a destination.
I personally don't think MySpace is a failure. It may be for those that have lost their jobs - never a good thing - but that's the nature of working life these days. Ventures are born, grow, evolve and die at a much faster rate. Few jobs are safe so be prepared.
MySpace has been a failure for its investors. Tough luck. They took a calculated risk and lost out. They remain wealthy and will not lose sleep over this.
MySpace's evolution will interesting to follow. I think management are clever enough not to want to take on Facebook and build something unique and cool.
With features easier and easier to obtain, usability, design and customer service really all that can distinguish products, and Myspace really is a great example of this. People complain about walled gardens, but who really wants to use software, rather than just use software to get things done?
I think that is a great point about having the ability to over customizing ones page, a vast majority of people are not familiar with UX and how it works and here they are "designing" their content.
When you get people creating individual pages which go outside of functionality and accessibility then you get a natural reaction to sway away from difficult content / MS page, a slow but sure death and repulsion for users.
What to do now though, is it that hard to see?
I agree 100% with John P. Myspace was a train wreck I could never get into because the pages were so horrifyingly bad. I actively avoided any Myspace pages because of how offensive the pages were.
Facebook isn't and anybody who thinks Facebook's UI is 'unusable' can go speak to my 80 year old granny and ask her what she thinks. On Facebook.
None of you like being told you're an idiot, but none-the-less, that is what this guy said and what's more is he's right. People in groups and general don't know what they want until it lands in their laps. If you've ever held a customer service job for any length of time you'd know this.
The main reason I and many other people I know left myspace is because of the horribly designed pages. FB may be Boring, but it's functional and easy to navigate, and for the most part MS and FB do same job. MS pages are a mess code wise, you can't read the content, and are train wrecks in general regarding ui.
FB initiated tight controls on their look, a focused execution on user experience, and kept the core of what they were about simple. That is why they are more successful.
I just tweeted my theory about the collapse: allowing customization. I agree with kurren in the sense that it wasn't UX or usability.
MySpace became like the worst of Geocities websites, but even more obnoxious because they were interactive. FB has never allowed that level of customization. Maybe that's not THE reason why FB has succeeded, but it certainly helps maintain consistency if everyone's profile looks the same. It's a relief knowing that if I go to a stranger's FB page, I will not be confronted with animated backgrounds and 12 gifs plus a video and an .mp3 all playing at the same time in the background.
"people, for the most part, have no bleep idea what they want until it lands in their bleep laps."
Massively negative sentiment that I have to disagree with emphatically. It's so generalised, it's insulting.
Myspace death has nothing to do with the design aspect of UX, but rather the *content*
Some of the worst designed websites in terms of UX can have excellent content, likewise, some of the most amazing UX designs can be little more than eye candy.
Content is king - and lets face it, in terms of User Experience, Content wins every time. The navigation / browsing / accessibility of that content is the icing on top.
Yes, you can create UX so terrible, that good content can be rendered inaccessible, but that's a very small percentage case.
There's nothing worse than a smug designer - if you cannot think like your audience, you've failed. What your audience wants, first and foremost, is interesting content.

SmartWool Socks
SmartWool was born with comfort in mind. The founders were New England ski instructors struggling to keep their feet warm. After trying a variety of materials, they rediscovered an age-old classic: wool. But while these socks may have been warm, they were itchy and shrank. So they worked on a process to make them soft and easy care. SmartWool was born on a simple belief: keeping feet comfortable on the slopes.
But it was a difficult sell. Try as they might, they couldn't initially convince others of the material's merits. No one believed that a wool sock could be anything but itchy. Out of frustration, they finally challenged people to try them. And this simple tactic changed the course of SmartWool forever and pioneered a new market transformation for wool performance products. The instant people tried them they were awestruck with SmartWool's soft luxurious feel. They were even more surprised that their feet stayed comfortable for extended periods of time in mixed weather conditions. Instead of getting clammy, the SmartWool socks stayed dry, soft and comfortable. The founders then realized that they had to get their socks on as many people as possible to let them speak for themselves.

cat /tmp/spell.tmp | xclip # Copy the results back to the clipboard, so that you can paste the corrected text
I'm not sure xclip is installed in most distributions. If not, you can install x11-apps package
Useful to detect number of tabs in an empty line, DOS newline (carriage return + newline).
A tool that can help you understand why your parsing is not working.
Be aware of using the --password argument as it will appear your password in plain text on the screen. You may use -p argument instead, it will prompt you to enter you password in hidden mode.
Displays the duplicated lines in a file and their occuring frequency.
Displays all information about your battery. for just capacity, try replacing cat with
grep -F capacity:
Battery number might be BAT0 instead of BAT1. Just run
cd /proc/acpi/battery; ls
and find out what folder is in that directory and replace that name with BAT1
Takes a input file (count.txt) that looks like:
It will add/sum the first column of numbers.
This command lets you see and scroll through all of the strings that are stored in the RAM at any given time. Press space bar to scroll through to see more pages (or use the arrow keys etc).
Sometimes if you don't save that file that you were working on or want to get back something you closed it can be found floating around in here!
The awk command only shows lines that are longer than 20 characters (to avoid seeing lots of junk that probably isn't "human readable").
If you want to dump the whole thing to a file replace the final '| less' with '> memorydump'. This is great for searching through many times (and with the added bonus that it doesn't overwrite any memory...).
Here's a neat example to show up conversations that were had in pidgin (will probably work after it has been closed)...
sudo cat /proc/kcore | strings | grep '([0-9]\{2\}:[0-9]\{2\}:[0-9]\{2\})'
(depending on sudo settings it might be best to run
sudo su
first to get to a # prompt)
using `cat` under *NIX - just because you help manage M$ Windoze
*doesn't* mean you should have to resort to using it!
You can also make custom win32 installers with the 7zip "extras" package:
cat /path/to/7zSD.sfx /path/to/config.txt /path/to/archive > setup.exe
This command is much quicker than the alternative of "sort | uniq -c | sort -n".
You can use multiple field separators by separating them with | (=or).
This may be helpful when you want to split a string by two separators for example.
#echo "one=two three" | awk -F "=| " {'print $1, $3'}
one three
Works for most distributions, tested on Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS, Gentoo, SUSE, RedHat.
Debian and Slackware:
cat /etc/*version
Takes input from the connected terminal and dumps it to the specified file. Stop writing and close file with control + D or the end of line character. Useful for copying+pasting large blobs of text over SSH to a new machine.
Note that the file at the given path will have the contents of the (still) deleted file, but it is a new file with a new node number; in other words, this restores the data, but it does not actually "undelete" the old file.
I posted a function declaration encapsulating this functionality to http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/7yx6f/how_to_undelete_any_open_deleted_file_in_linux/c07sqwe (please excuse the crap formatting).

ZenN.J.Goodbye To Those Pesky Unwanted Facial Hairs!I decided to try this because conventional tweezing to get rid of those unwanted hairs that suddenly are sprouting on my chin in my 30s was causing me to break out. The Emjoi is supereasy to use, it works quickly and, boy, does it deliver! My chin looks so smooth and, for the first time in several months, it is clear!
I do, however, recommend that you are careful when using this. The first couple of times, I pinched my skin, and that took a few days to heal. So if you try this, remember to use it with a light touch! Now that I've got the hang of it, I haven't had that issue.
My only other issue is that sometimes it trims, versus tweezes and removes, the hair. So I recommend that you look carefully in the mirror, in good lighting, to be sure you removed what you intended to.posted Aug 28, 2012Link to this post -
