poor quality
I have never owned a Limited skirt that was made of such thin,wrinkly material. Even though I did buy it on sale, I am returning it.
July 21, 2013
Perfect staple
Suit pieces from The Limited always look super nice for a great price point, and this skirt is no exception. It's a perfect work staple, a definite must-have. It's so versatile, I can wear it constantly with all kinds of tops, suit jackets and camis.
June 24, 2013
Good quality
I wasn't too excited about the material but the fit was great. The skirts fits really well.
June 21, 2013
Perfect Staple Skirt
This skirt has a very flattering fit. It is a must for any wardrobe. It runs true to size. I love it!
June 5, 2013
I wear it because it goes with the suit jacket
There is nothing wrong with this skirt except that it's 22" length is probably an inch too short to show off my legs/shape in the best possible way. I am 5'5", @130lbs and I ordered a 2. The fit is great around the waist & the rear, but as I said, I want a little more on the length. I wish that the Limited would start describing their clothes in a more meaningful way -- like "22" skirt...etc" and then I also want the inside label to match the description -- I have the darndest time remembering what I ordered sometimes!! Another complaint on Limited Labels -- what is up with the brown labels and tan lettering? Can barely read the fabric content. So irritating! Anyway, this skirt goes well with the 2 button black besom suit jacket which I LOVE so I overall I am glad I have the whole outfit.
June 4, 2013
Wrinkles easily
Overall I like this skirt. The fit is true to size (bought my usual size 6), and as the other Black Collection pieces, matches my jackets. The wide waistband is flattering and the quality feels like the typical great quality items from TL but this skirt wrinkles much easier than my other skirts. This is bad since I spend most of my typical work day sitting.
March 20, 2013
It's more than my expectation!
This is my first time shopping Limited online, I really wanted to share my wonderful experience with any of you that are shopping for a quality fitted skirt! I have a very limited schedule that I can't shop too much in the mall, so I decided give it a try to a virtual store since they have free return policy. Guess what? It turns out PERFECT!! It saves my time and more money shopping online than ever!
This particular skirt fitted perfect on me, sizes are truth, it's pretty much what you see in the picture. I'm a pettie size O, so the length of the skirt is a bit longer.
March 14, 2013
Great fit & Design
Hey Limited: Make this skirt in LOTS of colors. It is incredibly flattering & can easily accommodate every need that you have for a little black skirt. The fabric is great, it is LINED (yay), and wonderful quality. It fits your natural waist and creates a sliming look. As other reviewers have stated, the sizing might be a little big only because those of us used to wearing say a 6 in all the pants, don't have to fit our thighs individually which means that occasionally we have to go to a 4 in skirts. I bought the most adorable jacket to match and the outfit is just perfect for a 30-something professional. Not too junior-looking (though I would never wear platforms with a suit anyway) or mature/matronly. I am EXTREMELY PLEASED with my purchase.

Using a Rolling Release/9.2
(Sorry for the inconvenience)
In February, 2013, PC-BSD® switched to a rolling release model. This is intended to make it easier for users to keep the packages that came with the operating system up-to-date and to make new features and drivers available for testing before the next major version is released. The rolling release is based on FreeBSD-STABLE. For terminology purposes, a release version is referred to as RELEASE and a rolling release version is referred to as STABLE.
NOTE: PC-BSD 9.1-RELEASE was released on December 18, 2012. Users on this RELEASE will not see any of the new features until they upgrade to 9.2-RELEASE which is expected around August 31, 2013. Due to some new features which required ZFS layout changes, a new RELEASE version was made available for download from the PC-BSD website on July 19, 2013. 9.1-RELEASE users who wish to take advantage of these new features prior to the release of PC-BSD 9.2-RELEASE have the option of reinstalling using this latest version.
The rolling release model is optional. This means that users can choose to either remain on a RELEASE or to upgrade an existing RELEASE to STABLE. Users that remain on RELEASE will still be notified of security updates and updates to software installed using AppCafe®. However, they will not receive updates to the packages installed with the operating system or any new features until they upgrade to the next RELEASE.
Currently, the schedule for updates is as follows:
- RELEASE: pkgng software repository is updated on or about the 1st and 15th of each month.
- STABLE: pkgng software repository is updated on or about the 5th and 20th of each month. In addition, a new update patch is issued on the 1st of each month which can be used to update to the latest STABLE.
Users who wish to install a version of PC-BSD® which contains the latest operating system software and features can choose to install STABLE instead of RELEASE.
The rest of this section will demonstrate how to upgrade a RELEASE to STABLE. It also describes how to install a STABLE version.
Upgrading a 9.1-RELEASE System to STABLE
To upgrade a PC-BSD® 9.1-RELEASE system to STABLE, become the superuser and edit the file /usr/local/share/pcbsd/pc-updatemanager/conf/sysupdate.conf. Change this line:
PATCHSET: pcbsd
PATCHSET: pcbsdtest
Once the edit is saved, you can use either Update Manager or pc-updatemanager to upgrade to the latest STABLE. Once the upgrade is complete, it will automatically change the above line so that it looks like this:
PATCHSET: updates
Around the 1st of each month, the upgrade to the next STABLE will appear in Update Manager. If you find a bug in a rolling release, please send an email with the details to the testing mailing list.
Installing STABLE
To install the latest STABLE version from DVD or USB media, or to try a live USB image, select the desired media type from the PC-BSD CDN. Rolling releases always have a date in the media name and you should choose the most recent date. After downloading the desired file, you can install or use the live image as usual, as described in Chapters 2-4 of this Handbook.
Once installed, STABLE will automatically notify you when a newer STABLE version becomes available. You can use either Update Manager or pc-updatemanager to upgrade to the latest STABLE.
Before upgrading, always backup your data. If you find a bug in a STABLE version, send an email with the details to the testing mailing list.

An Iraqi man stands at his house destroyed by a US air strike in 2008 as the US army was fighting radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr's Mahdi militia in Baghdad's Sadr City on December 10, 2012. A US-led coalition invaded Iraq in 2003, toppling dictator Saddam Hussein and beginning a conflict that cost the lives of tens of thousands of Iraqis, thousands of Americans and hundreds of billions of dollars. Almost 10 years later and after that the last convoy of American armoured vehicles rolled across the border into Kuwait on the chilly morning of December 18, 2011, many Iraqis still lack basic services such as consistent electricity and clean water, and though levels of violence are down, insurgents continue to carry out bombings and shootings almost every day.

Comments about PARKSIDE Croquet Set:
I've bought (and seen others buy)croquet sets for this price, and after frequent use, this is the best I have seen. The balls are dense so they don't crack open like I've seen other sets do, and the mallets are the ideal size for users of all ages. While you do have to unscrew the mallets after each use, it all fits nicely in the bag, which is very efficient in size.

I came across your video about the mat. I knew it would work because this is how I always made my pie crusts so I ordered the mat immediately. Needless to say it was a complete success. The cake was flawless! I am sending an attachment to share.

Derry-Londonderry is a compact city with plenty of character. From cannon-laden walls to illicit love affairs and back to culture cool, there's plenty to get your teeth into
It's hard to escape the walls in Derry-Londonderry. Then again, why would you want to? Almost 20 feet high and at least as wide, the mile-long oval comes complete with gates, watchtowers, battlements, bastions and platforms.
They are one of the most intact city walls in Europe, and the most civilised way to enjoy the stony stroll is to go slow. Promenade and pause, stroll and snap. The cityscape is modest in height, which makes it a great place to photograph from your historical perch.
Dangerous romance and 16th-century shipwrecks: the Tower Museum does history with a side of drama. A love story with a difference comes in the shape of Bishop Frederick Augustus Hervey and the mistress of Frederick William II of Prussia.
It wasn't far from Derry-Londonderry, on the Donegal coast in fact, where the Spanish Armada's fourth largest ship La Trinidad Valencera was lost in 1588. Get the grisly details right here with an audiovisual twist.
Think a friend might enjoy this article? Click to save and share
Londonderry's history is a rich one. It's so rich in fact that they've painted it on the walls. The city's murals are a keyhole view into a time that's known widely as "The Troubles". The artists who painted a large number of them now conduct guided walking tours of the murals and as far as living history goes, this is unique.
The bright Irish language centre Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin showcases the traditional skills of some of the city's best singers and dancers. A night here is not easily forgotten. As impressive in as it is out, the building is a beauty. Wander through its zigzag interior and you'll see why it has been nominated for several architectural awards.
When Derry-Londonderry dons its UK City of Culture hat for 2013, the arty party will be right at home. The city is bulging with galleries and art spaces. Cutting-edge spots, such as the Void and CCA (Centre for Contemporary Arts), present established Irish and international art, while galleries such as the Gordon Gallery and London Street Gallery are also well worth a visit.

The title of this blog is something I've learned over the past year from my time here at PC. I do like to be nice to people and I tend to like people by default - until they give me a reason not to. But the lesson I've learned is that when somebody is dumb, it can be the most infuriating thing in the world. That's why it's imperative that when this happens, you must explain to them - in the most condescending way you know how - why they are dumb. Because if you don't, how will they learn? Clearly...

I went to painstaking effort last week recounting my act of heroism in the shopping mall, where - at great risk to my own personal safety - I fixed a potentially traumatic spelling mistake on an out-of-order ATM machine. I knew you'd all be dying to know what happened next: was the perpetrator brought to justice? Did I ever receive my badge of honour? Was there a statue erected in my name?...
So I went back to the mall yesterday in hope of finding the answers to all three of those questions...

I am of the belief that it is imperative to give back to your local community because in the end, when the chips are down, it's the people closest to you who will rally around and support you in your time of need - and when that happens, you're going to want them to want to be there. I am also, however, the first to admit that I've been a little lax in my efforts to benefit my local kin of late (and by 'of late', I mean for the past twenty-one years). Not once have I helped a doddery old lady cross...

I always knew this day would come....
Since I was very young, I've been gripped by the overwhelming feeling that I was special. Many people over the years have tried to tell me differently, but always in vain – after all, I knew the truth. I could feel it, I could sense it - and I still can. There has always been something within me that is extraordinary; chosen for a destiny beyond the shackles of this daily routine existence we all seem to lead.
I'm not sure why

Add the lean ground beef, turkey Italian sausage, chopped tomatoes, and egg to the bowl and use your hands to combine the mixture. (Don't overmix.)
Jake did a nice job forming two good looking loaves.
And just for laughs, here's the original photo from back in 2007, not too bad for those days!
Meatloaf with Tomatoes, Fennel, and Flax Seed Meal (Grain-Free, Phase One, Gluten-Free, Low-Carb)
(Makes two meat loaves, about 8-10 servings, recipe created by Kalyn)
2 lbs. lean ground beef (less than 10% fat)
1 pkg. (19.5 oz.) hot turkey Italian Sausage
2 T dried chopped onion
1 T garlic powder
1 T dried basil
1 T dried parsley
1/2 cup flax seed meal (I used Bob's Red Mill Flaxseed Meal)
1 tsp. Vege-Sal (or 1/2 tsp. salt)
1 T ground fennel (I used Penzeys)
1 cup finely chopped slow roasted tomatoes
(or use well-drained roasted canned tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes (rinse with hot water if oil packed)
2 eggs slightly beaten
Remove ground beef and turkey sausage links from refrigerator and let come to room temperature. In bowl, combine dried onion, garlic powder, dried basil, dried parsley, flax seed meal, Vege-sal or salt, and ground fennel. (I purposely used dried herbs since I wasn't adding much binder to the meatloaf and I didn't want added moisture.)
Squeeze turkey sausage out of casings in small pieces into the mixing bowl. Break ground beef into pieces and place in same bowl. Add tomatoes, and eggs to meat mixture and use your hands to combine well. Try to mix the meat enough to get spices and eggs evenly distributed without over-mixing.
Shape meat into two loaves. I prefer to bake meatloaf on a roasting rack as shown, so the fat can drip out. This meatloaf doesn't have a lot of fat, but using a rack also browns the meatloaf well on three sides.
Bake until the meatloaf is well done, 165F on the meat thermometer. When I originally baked this in my toaster/convection, it was done in 1 hour 15 minutes. This time it took about 1 hour 30 minutes in my large oven. Cutting one meat loaf open is the still a good way to see if the inside is done to your liking! (Remember this contains turkey and needs to be fairly well done.)

Excellent printer I was looking for a wireless laser printer with a reasonable price. I saw this one on Overstock and took a chance on ordering it. It arrived within a week. The setup instructions were very clear and included pictures (always a plus for me). The printer works very well and I am looking forward to not having to struggle with printer ink clogging up my inkjet. That printer is now in the trash.

(China 1605 – 1691)
26.3 x 34.0 cm approx.
Cheng Sui, alias Muqian, was a native of Shexian, Anhui province. Like many traditional literati artists, Cheng mastered painting, writing and poetry, as well as seal carving. But above all, he was considered a man of great moral integrity.
Cheng Sui belonged to a group of loyalist-literati known as 'yimin' or 'left-over people', who refused to transfer their political allegiance from the native Ming to the alien Qing. His dissent was expressed in the literary name he took for himself - 'Goudaoren' (dusty or grim monk) - thus indicating his regret and pain at being unable to stop the foreign conqueror. The effect of dynastical change on Cheng Sui and his painting style is reflected in these albums, painted in 1668, some two decades after the decline of the Ming dynasty. The choice of subject matter is not new: we see simple huts standing by shores, secluded temples concealed in mountains, an isolated boat with a man drifting between river and sky, and a lonely scholar strolling alone along the streamside. However, one can immediately sense the certain plainness, a melancholy and often bleak and lonely feeling. All these sentiments were reinforced by his characteristic dry and bold brush outlines, added by small dots of dry dark ink. Inscriptions were also brushed with very dry ink, echoing the brush works of the landscape.
Excerpt from The Asian Collections, AGNSW, 2003, pg.148.

Fall (Autumn) call it what you may, it remains my arch nemesis. What kind of season is this? We have to fall back on time, and lose so many precious daylight hours. But the worst is the wind (let's just say that I would never be able to survive in Chicago). I despise it, loath it, and I hate it with a passion!
Not wanting to sucumb to my internal instics and put all of my fishing gear away for the season. I headed out this last Saturday morning to get in a little Urban Park Fly Fishing. The whole drive to the park I just kept thinking to myself that I cannot stand the wind and trying to convince myself to head back home and hit the snooze button for a few hours. But, I am a Fly Fisherman at the deepest portions of my heart and the urge to fish won over.
Let's just say that I'm glad that I listened to that little Fishing Voice in my head.
The Green Sunfish showed up in full action, and I got to hone a new Fly Fishing Skill. The Sunfish get weary about this time of year, and the littlest movement or shadow of any kind spooks the living daylights out of them. So you have to fish the hole under the concrete bank that they hide in, and then set that hook as soon as they poke their head out for a peak.
I tied on my "Fenner Bugger Special" a small heavily weighted Woolly Bugger that works a lot like a bass jig to lure my quarry out of hiding, and lure them out I did. Within about 2 hours I had caught more than I could count, and lost even more than that.
So, I guess the moral of the story is for me to stop being such a baby about the wind, and get out there to do some fall fishin. But, I'm just sayin the wind sucks.
I'm so glad I grew up, and have spent so much of my life in Southern California. Just a couple of months of this crappy weather and it's back to good ol' Sunny So Cal.

I tried the sambal you gave me and they were so good. I bet it will sell like hot cakes if you bottle it and sell it. If you cook it again maybe I can buy to tubs from you :) I love fish curry but I am not a fan of salted fish curry. Maybe because of the salted fish smell :)
salted fish curry, I did not cook this often, but I know it is very good.
Salted fish curry? I've never had this before! Sounds really good!
I'm glad you like the sambal:)well,I have to wait after Winter in order to cook more sambal on my BBQ pit outdoor..I will remember to send you some then.To cook for sell is "No No" for me.as you know making sambal take too much time and work which I don't have the energy to do it.Just make for fun and ourself is OK. Oh this salted fish is not salty or fishy at all..Maybe you should try if you like salted fish.
Thank you:)
try it,you may like it:) thanks!
I didn't know salted fish can be added to curry. looks good!
Wow!!Looked very delicious.
Thanks for sharing! I will definitely try it

ATTENTION!Firewood may contain non-native insects and plant diseases. Bringing firewood into New Hampshire from other areas can accidentally spread damaging insects and diseases that will threaten the health of our forests. Once infestation occurs, control of these pests involves drastic measures, including complete removal of all trees (infested or otherwise) in the affected and surrounding areas. The emerald ash borer and the Asian longhorned beetle are two insects that can be easily spread in firewood. Firewood can look normal, but still be infested with the immature stage of these insects. Don't assume wood is safe just because you don't see adult insects! BUY LOCAL FIREWOOD!For more information please contact the New Hampshire Division of Forests and Lands, Forest Protection Bureau – Forest Health Section, PO Box 1856, Concord, NH 03302 at (603)271-7858.

Question is what will Canon, Nikon, Adobe, Microsoft, Apple, and Android do?
Phoronix: JPEG Library Update Raises Compatibility Concerns
This week brought the release of IJG's libjpeg v9 library, which brought noticeable lossless JPEG compression improvements so that it can even surpass PNG images on the compress lossless image size. While the improvements are nice, backwards incompatible changes with this JPEG library are causing concern for some users and developers...
Question is what will Canon, Nikon, Adobe, Microsoft, Apple, and Android do?
This is apparently hotter than it seems. JPEG lacks animation, transparency, quality compression and it embeds metadata so deep that it is rather useful for suing and stalking than to be a help for the image owner.
Also, the "-turbo" version is a community version, hence its accelerated, and upstream version (which turned v9 now) is coming from committee.
Also, WebP has long established as much more efficient picture compression, spotting every feature JPG lacks, including much better yet readable (not blocky) compression.
WebP is being bashed and WONT FIX on Mozilla - the single browser that actively prevents its adoption since years. Many conclude its only to piss Google.
By the way, Mozilla is accused to kill motion-JPEG exactly the same way, and now they leave developers with either no-alpha JPG or huge alpha PNG.
Just read the comments.
Also, see this comparison
So, in my opinion, the developer is correct. Because JPG9 breaks compatibility, but does not bring anything worth the effort, it is better switch to WebP instead.
Why should we care?
Sony(Konica), Nikon, Canon, Fuji shoot RAW and JPG. The JPG ends up either stored or transcoded anyway.
Microsoft, Apple, and Android. One is only affected if one uses solutions from these vendors. Rewind IE6 days, just use WebP if your OS supports it. If it does not, make them support it.

I don't think anyone cares about JPEG animation or transparency.
JPEG is for photographs. Photographs don't use animation or transparency. If you want animation, there is MPEG.
I don't think Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera, etc support WebP either.
I guess its only Google Chrome that supports WebP?

But no OS supports WebP. What OS, what browser, what software supports it?
If you take a photo, then you want to share it with your friends on the Internet, with JPEG everyone can see it, with WebP nobody can see it.
Also, it's not only about OS, it's also about which devices support it.
If camera manufactures all of a sudden started saving the photos as this new JPEG v9 then I guess every browser will need to support that.
So it is important what Sony, Nikon, Canon, Fuji do.
Also, now most people don't have cameras from Sony, Nikon, Canon, Fuji, they have smartphones running Android or iOS with built-in camera.
If Android and iOS started saving to JPEG v9 then when kids with smartphones are posting their photos on the Internet, then the browsers must support it.
RAW is for photographs, JPEG is for archiving and internets
RAW does not damage the luminosity, the luminosity is a critical factor due to EV. If you shot DLC in manual, you would understand..
WebP is highly demanded by hosters, web designers, archiving services, photographers and normal users, because it simply has everything. Its only con is a high computational requirement, but only for compression.
Compare it to h264 vs MPEG1, or LZMA vs ZIP and you get the same idea.
Please follow the Firefox bugzilla link I provided.
Only IE(which is completely and utterly non-relevant browser of permanent suckage) does not support it, as Microsoft pushes its own format JPEG XR (happy days and surprise, EEE welcomes everyone).
Opera was early adopter of webp. Overall all browsers except Mozilla either adopted WebP early or later.
Its patent free, opensource, x-platform, very advanced and mature already. Only lobbysts would deny it, happily the IE6 days are over.
Just follow the links and be surprised.
Hence the point. JPEG9 deviated from the old specification and hence a new specification. WebP is a completely new specification.
However WebP > JPEG9 many times on features, the licensing is open on both, so its a battle of "good reputation" vs "technological advantage". Politics vs computing.
Also, you don't really shoot photo for internets, so browser is not related.
However, the low-budget versions do shoot photo straight for internets and in this case its completely irrelevant what they use because every browser supports old JPG.
Old JPG is tried and true, so no crime using it further till the format has settled (its mature already).
iOS/Android and all OSes support WebP.
Would like to see the focus of the library on continue focusing on baseline and coming up with new ways to make it faster.
Haha, btw.... Microsoft "relacement" of JPEG, the JPEG XR is:
* patented, usage allowed only via "Promise" ("I give promise, I take promise back." Haha)
* prohibited to use on copyleft software (proof that MONO developers are BLIND)
* works only on windows (all software, even GIMP plugin are bound to windows imaging service)
* compresses worse than WebP
.... and its result of cooperation between MS and JPEG group itself.
I am going to recompress every single picture I have with WebP tomorrow
I wanted to update you guys on what has occurred since the events described in this article took place. For starters, the future of libjpeg-turbo is not up in the air at all. My message to the libjpeg-turbo list was simply to solicit feedback on whether the community felt like it was worthwhile to continue viewing the IJG as our "upstream." I think that the answer was a resounding "no" (read on to find out why.)
After posting that message, I engaged in a pro bono research project to attempt to evaluate the general usefulness of SmartScale and DCT scaling as features. Bear in mind that those features are what necessitated the backward-incompatible ABI change in jpeg-7 and jpeg-8. Specific to jpeg-9, my research compared the lossless SmartScale format introduced in jpeg-8 (and enhanced in jpeg-9) with other popular lossless codecs:
In fact, even the new, improved iteration of lossless SmartScale only compressed better than PNG on one case that we tested (which happened to be the same case that the IJG used for its testing.) On two of our test cases, it compressed about the same as PNG. On another, it was decidedly worse. Further, webp compressed better than jpeg-9 across the board, and JPEG-LS compressed better in all but one case (and, to wit, I wasn't even using the best compression settings. I was using the highest-performance settings.) The performance of lossless SmartScale in jpeg-9 was also decidedly not compelling when compared to PNG or even when compared to JPEG-LS in most cases.
Regarding fragmentation, the SmartScale format introduced in jpeg-8 is not a standard. According to the current IJG maintainer, it was proposed to the ITU-T and rejected (see comments here: http://blog.kaourantin.net/?p=116. Also note the part where he accuses the ISO of being corrupt.) We have always been hesitant to implement this new format because it is not part of the official JPEG spec, so it is unclear that any software other than the IJG's software will ever support it, and it is also unclear whether the format may change arbitrarily in the future. In fact, jpeg-9 introduced an enhancement to the SmartScale format that made lossless files compressed with jpeg-9 incompatible with prior releases of libjpeg.
uid313's comment regarding support of jpeg-9 is spot-on. Before the format is adopted on the consumer end, it will have to first be adopted on the producer end-- by devices. And they're not going to adopt anything that isn't an official standard. If Mozilla or Google came to me tomorrow and said, "please support this", I would do so, because I know that they wouldn't ask unless they felt like it was enough of an accepted standard that their browsers needed to decode it. Until/unless that happens, though, I'm not going to get behind a non-standard format that may change at any point in the future. Arithmetic coding actually is part of the JPEG spec and is no longer a patent concern, and yet no browsers support that, either-- despite the fact that libjpeg-turbo does support it and libjpeg-turbo is used by two of the most popular browsers out there and all they'd have to do to support arithmetic coding would be to flip a switch.
Back to jpeg-9. To add insult to injury, the ABI incompatibility introduced in this latest release was, in fact, not even necessary. Rather than introduce a new field in the exposed jpeg_compress_struct, enabling the new color transform could have just as easily been done by way of a new JPEG colorspace constant, which would have preserved ABI compatibility with jpeg-8.
After I posted my research article to the libjpeg-turbo lists, they basically exploded, and a full read of the thread that ensued is illuminating:
I'll summarize:
-- One of the ARM developers did some research of his own, and his research is what prompted me to extend my original research to cover webp and JPEG-LS. Whereas I was already under the belief that jpeg-9 wasn't very compelling when compared to PNG, the addition of webp and JPEG-LS made it even less compelling.
-- The ARM developer in question CC'ed the current IJG maintainer on one of the messages regarding the new colorspace transform in jpeg-9. The current IJG maintainer responded with very inflammatory remarks regarding webp and basically said that the jpeg-9 format is better because it's JPEG (but it actually isn't, if you define "JPEG" to mean something conformant to the JPEG spec.)
-- My research, as well as the inflammatory comments from the IJG maintainer, prompted the Fedora developer responsible for integrating libjpeg-turbo to retract his project that sought to upgrade Fedora to the jpeg-8 API/ABI. That project was prompted solely by one library (libkdcraw) that required jpeg_mem_dest() and jpeg_mem_src(), so we will be implementing those functions on top of the existing (jpeg-6b-compatible) API/ABI to preserve backward compatibility for programs that don't use them.
-- It was decided to reject any emulation of the jpeg-9 ABI. It is our belief that insufficient technical justification exists for software to upgrade from jpeg-8 to jpeg-9, and anyone doing so is doing so only because of a desire to be on the bleeding edge. Personally, I have yet to see any software take advantage of the jpeg-8 features, other than the in-memory source/destination managers. Minimally, such software is rare.
In short, I think it's safe to say that libjpeg-turbo is in the process of splitting from libjpeg.
To answer some of the comments:
-- Regarding Android, Linaro is working hard to get libjpeg-turbo integrated as the default JPEG library in Android, and the performance gains on ARM platforms are similar (2-4x) to those on x86 platforms. No idea about Apple, Nikon, etc., but there should be no technical or legal issues preventing them from using libjpeg-turbo. I use a Mac as my primary machine, and libjpeg-turbo works fantastically well with it.
-- The IJG's software does not come from a committee. The IJG is basically one guy and really always has been. It's just a different guy now, and he basically hates our guts. Tom Lane, on the other hand, is the original IJG maintainer and has publicly offered up words of support for our efforts.
Our focus definitely will continue to be baseline JPEG. I find it puzzling that the current IJG maintainer goes out of his way to declare in his README file that people should not use an "incompatible file format", and yet, that is precisely what SmartScale is. The original charter for libjpeg was to encourage the community to rally around a common standard JPEG format, and Tom Lane did so by making the software freely available. We believe that we are continuing this tradition by making the format much faster, and therefore enabling it to be used to classes of applications that might not have been able to use JPEG previously because of performance.
Feedback and questions are most welcome.
Well, having finally found an image viewer that uses libjpeg-turbo, I'm definitely a convert. I just wish more image viewers/image editors were using it.

if you look at it Death Metal is different depending on the band, take arch enemy for example Melodic death, real melody and there is a senxe of death metal Deep vocals, growls grunts and things of that nature, but take some thing like Necrophagist which is more technical death metal, then there is Severed Savior which is more brutal death metal metal, lots of kiling, slaying. slaughter,rape, murder the works, read the lyrics death metal isnt Jsut HARD fast SHIT, its about the lyrics, it could talk about politics to relgion to hate and love. death metal is defined by the way you see and hear it.
Arch Enemy, Morbid Angel, CC, Dark Tranquillity, Lord Gore. Engorged, Naplam Death, Goatwhore, Necrophagist, Agoraphobic Nosebleed, Anal Cunt, Cock and Ball Tortue, Gorgasm, Severed Savior, Fear Factory, Vomitory, Vital Remains, Deicide !!!!!!!!!!! \,,/

Death Metal is probally one of the most unknown and unpopular genre's there is today, even though it is very hard to play and requires immense skill. The solo's are usually very high pitched and are fairly common. Bassist's play a big part in death metal and are usually extremely skilled. e.g alex webster of cannibal corpse. Most metal fans that dont like Death metal are usually dickheads who have never sat down and listened to the genre throughly before. Lyrics span from crazy gore and horror to politics to stuff about satan and the devil. Some people say that Death Metal is a bunch of noise, they are cunts who cant listen to music properly because even though the usually low vocals may make it sound like a mash of music it is really not!
may i mention i am only 13 and death metal is my favourite genre which may surprise some of you old-school death metallers who think death metal is nearly dead, which i hope it isnt! My favourite Death Metal bands are Cannibal Corpse, In Flames, At The Gates, Deicide, Carcass and six feet under
