I started getting bad acne & breakouts during high school, so I did a lot of research and decided to start using the Regimen. I kept track of when I started (2012) to now, and all the acne spots are gone & the scars have healed (paired with the program's glyolic acid (AHA))
Usᴇ Hɪsᴛᴏʀʏ
I follow the regimen everyday. I remove my waterproof makeup with jojoba oil, use a sensitive skin face wipe, and dab on some benzoyl peroxide. I've used this product for years, so I've used up three 16oz. bottles, one 8oz., and two travel-size bottles.
I use about a finger-length worth every night. Dotted around the face, and concentrated to prevent a breakout or treat a trouble spot.
It prevents acne and speeds up getting rid of small breakouts. I still get breakouts here and there, but it's only when I get lazy or touch my face with dirty hands.
It can also get rid of body breakouts, if used in a higher quantity. I use it on my chest and back for spot treatment, but I don't tend to it every night.
The formula is extremely effective and fast-acting.
It glides easily on the skin, and feels light. The application technique is on their website.
I really dislike the packaging for the 16oz. product. Those pumps can break so easily, then I have to replace them. I prefer the 8oz. packaging, because you can squeeze out every last bit, and both are sanitary, because the fingers are never dipping into the product. The formula itself is awesome, though.
It made my skin flake when I first started out, but it was a small price to pay for getting rid of my acne really fast. It will make the skin photosensitive, but I always put on sunscreen, so it's never an issue. The skin flaking stopped for good after about a month and a half, and I never had to worry about it again.
If you put it under foundation (I like to do heavy glam makeup) it creates an ugly, chalky white cast under makeup, so it's best to do this at night after the makeup is off.
Hands down one of my favorite products. I have clear skin, and it feels awesome. I get compliments about my complexion, and I'm so thankful for this product.

I had acne as a teenager, never terrible, but enough that I was embarrassed to leave the house sometime (or now look at old photo's). At 16, I started on birth control, and the problem was mostly solved. Now, at 30, I've gone off birth control, as I was started to get scared of what I was doing to my body with all those hormone. But oh, the hormones were so good!
Long story short, I had acne again. At 30. It was awful. You know. You've been there.
But this stuff! I did a lot of research online, and this stuff came so recommended I had to try it. I even tested my own version of the regime on my own, but I could't find a proper <5% benzoyl peroxide cream, except for the acne.org version. If you suffer from acne -mild, severe, whatever - you need this stuff. For this price, for these results.... it's incredible. I barely wear any foundation or concealer now. It's been two solid months of clear faced beauty. Please please please try this if you suffer. I want you to be as happy and clear faced as me!
The actual product - sticky, you have to get used to it, as it is very strong. I got over excited and burnt my neck a bit as I went along, so start up with a small amount and add more as you go. I've started to add my regular skin care products back into the mix - oil cleansing once a week at night, then the acne.org face wash and moisturizer. But I would recommend buying the whole kit - which is a steal compared to so many products out there - in the range of cetaphil or other dermatology style products. Use just the kit to start off with, follow the instructions as listed on their website, and go from there.
Be happy, little clear skinned ones!!!

FYI: I don't follow the Acne.org Regimen/This review is based on the Treatment alone/I don't use the Treatment anymore/I'm prone to acne but I don't have 'acne' more like random spots and I usually take care of them with the Acne.org AHA+.
This works like a charm to clear up my acne when it was in an 'uncontrollable' state. I had a reaction to a product and my usual skin care couldn't clear it up. I had a breakout around my mouth (inflamed acne, cyst, whiteheads...) and lots of clogged pores on my forehead. The Treatment cleared my acne in 1 month. Now I'm dealing with PIH (Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation). I don't use the Treatment anymore.
The 1 month summary when I was using the Treatment (I used a pea sized amount of BP at night only for 1 month): The first 3 weeks were painful and awful. My skin around my mouth was sore, red, dry, tight, burning, my acne got bigger (more cysts)... In brief, it was like hell for me and I wanted to give up. By week 4 (1 month), my skin was getting better. Less active acne. The clogged pores on my forehead were gone!
This is a good BP to try compared to a drugstore BP if you have chronic acne or have a reaction like I had that needs something strong to clear fast. Otherwise, I would suggest you to not use BP for the long term.
What I don't like about the ingredient Benzoyl Peroxide and have experienced while treating my acne reaction:
1) It made my red marks darker and last longer than usual even when using sunscreen everyday.
2) It turns your skin red all day and night. It's more noticeable during the day though, even if you didn't apply BP in the morning but just at night. For example, when it's hot, my face turns into a 'not-normal-color-red'. It's not a natural color. Now that I don't use the BP anymore, I don't have that problem.
3) My skin gets very dry and my skin tone is not healthy looking. When I used a lot of moisturizer to prevent that, it causes more clogged pores since it made my skin oily and dry at the same time. It was annoying to have to deal with tight and sometimes flaky skin. This also happens after my skin got used to the BP.
4) I notice that BP can turn a small pimple into a huge inflamed pimple. When I leave the small pimple alone, it gets inflamed a little bit and goes away faster.
5) Even when using BP when my skin is clear as a prevention, I would still get some acne. I don't like the fact that they say we have to keep using BP to remain clear. The 'remain clear' part is not so true, you will still get some acne randomly. So it's not perfect and I know it's not a cure. It only prevents acne 'when possible'. Sometimes it also aggravates acne, making them more inflamed. So I found that, for me, not using BP on my acne was better for my skin since I would still get acne when using BP as a prevention and it was making it worse. I think BP should be used by those who have chronic acne or have a reaction like I had. It will help clear your acne faster. I have random spots here and there, which is why BP is not a necessity for me. Still, what they say about BP being able to completely clear your skin 'if you keep using it' .. it's not true. You will be clear, but expect to still have acne with all those cons that comes with BP.

During i was 15, my face breakout really hard. There was lots of acnes on my whole face, maybe more than 20 acnes, urghh. My acnes not swelling at all but it deep inside my skin. I can't see acnes on my face but whenever i massage my face with cleansing oil or clean my face with cleanser, my hand can feel a lot of tiny and tough acnes under my skin. That feeling is really really not good and very very uncomfortable. So i decided to use tretinoin to purging all the acnes. It really works, my acnes slowly purging. I thought that it would dry out and disappear. But not, it still swelling and stay on my skin. That was the hardest time for me, i was super stress and stayed in my room the whole time except go to school. Then i found this acne.org regiment kit. I decided to try it, and my life change. All of my acnes disappear in 3 months. But my skin still terrible because of the dark spot after breakout. And i feel like this acne.org treatment even make the spot darker and redder. So i stop using this and try to find something can cure my dark spot. But when i stop using this, my face started to breakout again. But it didn't as worse as the last time. Now i'm planning to repurchase this acne.org and see if it still work for my acne skin.

This is THE PERFECT TREATMENT for my mild acne. I was told many times to try this treatment but I was hesitant because I have to keep using it for I don't know how long. But this product is worth spending every dollar on it. The results start appearing after one week of use..not so much obvious but especially for someone who has mild acne like me may get clear skin within a month!! And I highly recommend to start using AHA+ with this after one month of treatment..both of them together are my HG for skincare

Where has this been all my life?? I have been suffering with hormonal acne since I can remember. And just like so many others, I've tried it all...Proactiv, birth control, tea tree, clarisonic, Queen Helene mint mask, apple cider vinegar, everything. Everytime someone would suggest something, I'd want tell, "thanks! Didn't work!" I was stuck in a cycle where I would pick at active acne to try to minimize it and of course if it left scars. At one point, my acne had acne (how is that possible??) and I was so embarrassed.
Then I came across this...the reviews seemed too good to be true and I hadn't heard of it before. I googled, pintrested and YouTubed it to get some insight into whether it was worth it. Then I said, "eh, what the hell...lets see what it can do."
It arrived the week before my period, aka Hell Week for my skin. I started using it, overally paranoid about how specific the instructions where. Yes, I had a timer to make sure I didn't over clean it over moisturize.
It shrunk my monstrous zit overnight! In three days, I could see the acne clearing up! I was so excited I was putting nearly half an index finger's length of BP before the first week was out....oops!
My skin was soo dry, it would flake up and if I smiled, it hurt. I didn't want to give up, especially since I knew it was too soon so I cut back on the BP. I used two full pumps of moisturizer and just let it sit in my skin. When the acne was gone, I added rose hip (they say jojoba, but I liked rosehip for the anti-aging) and that also helped. I also only used one pump of soap because I was wasting so much when I only washed for 10 seconds. Instead, I just make sure to lather up really well so the soap glides on.
Now, it's been a week since I started. The flaking skin has revealed unscarred new skin, my old scars are fading fast and I am so happy that I can go outside without makeup. I still got a few zits but they were so small, immediately went into whiteheads (instead of lurking ominously under the skin) and dried up...in three days!
This has saved my life, I was depressed and angry at my skin. The acne was literally painful and I would get mad when my husband said I was still attractive because I felt ugly. Now, it is amazing to actually say the phrase clear skin in association with me!
I use the Makeup Eraser to get my makeup off and make sure to wait until my skin is completely dry before the next step.
My only drawback would be how shiny the moisturizer leaves me. But this is nothing in exchange for clear skin. I just put on sunscreen and HD powder and go to work. My morning routine when from 30 min to 10!!
Thank you to the MUA community for sharing this with me! I will never go back to touching my face and cringing!!!
2 MONTH UPDATE: So after a month of following the regimen as instructed, I had less acne, less spots but more dryness, itching and wrinkles. I noticed that I developed a dry spot that looked almost like a chemical burn under one eye and on my neck. I figured it was because of the BP lotion that maybe I accidentally rubbed on those areas. I started skipping days to give my skin a break and only using the BP lotion on spot treatment. The acne didn't come back so I think perhaps the BP lotion is the most critical step for me and I'll likely replace the cleanser with Cetaphil moisturizer with rose hip oil and Aquaphor on drier patches. There is so much product in the one month supply that I still haven't run out of anything yet.
If I feel a bunch of dormant acne coming out, I go back and do the steps but it's not worth the dryness.

I've been plagued by acne all my life and tried countless of treatments, a crazy dermatologist put me through accutane AND diane 35 combined with no effects whatsoever!!!! Nothing worked for me, so I basically gave up after so many failures. I had known about the regimen but hadn't tried it because I already tried Brevoxyl with no effect (now I think it's because I didn't give it enough time and didn't have a good enough moisturizer). So on a whim I ordered this treatment even though it's crazy expensive for me (I live in Romania, so shipping is almost the same as the product). The first month nothing happened except I had really dry skin...then slowly things started to improve...I still got a pimple now and then but instead of getting one every 2 days I got one once every week or two weeks. My skin is unfortunately still dry but it's a small price to pay for clearer skin. I'm now waiting for my second shipment to arrive and can't wait to try the AHA.

I've only been using the regimen for a month, but it's already made a significant difference for my skin. Within the first week of use it could see a slight change with my acne, and it only encouraged me to keep using.
I did experience a mild break out within the second week, but I was expecting that. It'll get worse before it gets better as your skin purges and adjusts. Please don't let that discourage you.
I suggest following the directions as best you can. And when using the cleanser do NOT scrub your face! Work it in gently or you will irritate your skin. I know it won't get seem like you're going getting a good clean, but you are. It doesn't need to be rubbed in--let your skin absorb.
Yes, you will experience dry skin. The Benzyl Peroxide is the culprit, but! Read other reviews before using. I did, and I noticed many others said they use Jaboba oil with the moisturizer. I've been doing that since day 1. And I have had very slight dry, itchy skin. But I use 3-6 drops of Jaboba oil to combat this and it doesn't take long before my skin is soft again. It really helps, and at first I thought all the extra oil will only make me break out more, but it hasn't.
Also, do start with just the pea size amount of Benzyl Peroxide the first week, using it only once a day. Honestly I still only use that amount even though directions suggested I up it two times a day the second week. I tried, but it was too much for my skin. Once a day works for me, but it'll probably depend on how severe your acne is when it comes to how much you should use. My acne is mild, and that also may be why I saw results within the first week. So if you have severe acne, don't give up even if there isn't much improvement the first month or two. I really think it depends on your skin.
So far, it's working. So I'm not stopping. My skin feels good, my acne has diminished. New pimples are defeated wayyy faster. Lesser break outs as I continue. It's friggen amazing. I'm so glad I stumbled upon this product, and if it continues to work for me then I will be a permanent customer. I don't care if I have to rely on this for the rest of my life just to have clear skin. If it works, why not?

AMAZING!! Thank you Acne.org for this product. I've been using this for about 2-3 years now, and it feels great no longer having worry about crazy breakouts and pimples. I used to have very problematic skin before all over my cheeks and forehead, but ever since I started using this product, those worries of mine have been kept at bay. I've used Clean & Clear's Persa-gel or whatever and that was honestly pretty ineffective garbage compared to to Acne.org's treatment, despite having similar or even the same ingredients. I don't know how that works, but I don't think I could live without this particular treatment. The only thing that's annoying is that you have to order it online but 8 fl. oz tube lasts me several months (I use it morning and before I sleep everyday) and the price is not bad. If you have stubborn skin, try this!! I highly recommend it.

There is no such word in the English language. Perhaps it is a name. Could it be a misspelling of the word "agent"? Have you asked the people who gave you the agreement.? Under "additional information" perhaps you can recite in context some other reference to the word.

During the past two decades, wages of skilled workers in the United States rose while those of unskilled workers fell; less-educated young men in particular have suffered unprecedented losses in real earnings. These twelve original essays explore whether this trend is unique to the United States or is part of a general growth in inequality in advanced countries.
Focusing on labor market institutions and the supply and demand forces that affect wages, the papers compare patterns of earnings inequality and pay differentials in the United States, Australia, Korea, Japan, Western Europe, and the changing economies of Eastern Europe. Cross-country studies examine issues such as managerial compensation, gender differences in earnings, and the relationship of pay to regional unemployment.
From this rich store of data, the contributors attribute changes in relative wages and unemployment among countries both to differences in labor market institutions and training and education systems, and to long-term shifts in supply and demand for skilled workers. These shifts are driven in part by skill-biased technological change and the growing internationalization of advanced industrial economies.

Insert some text, set the speed and have a lot of fun with Alen's fast reader! At the beginning of the story, a beautiful young queen sits sewing at an open window during a winter snowfall when she pricks her finger with her needle, causing three drops of red blood to drip onto the freshly fallen white snow on the black windowsill. Admiring the beauty of the resulting color combination, she says to herself, "How I wish that I had a daughter that had skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony." Soon after that, the Good Queen gives birth to a baby daughter, a girl with skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as black as ebony. She is named 'Snow White.' Sadly, the Good Queen, Snow White's mother, dies during childbirth.

Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC 1GB Video Card Review
Mafia II
Version and / or Patch Used: Latest Steam Update
Timedemo or Level Used: Built in Benchmark
Developer Homepage: http://www.2kczech.com/
Product Homepage: http://www.mafia2game.com/
Mafia II is a third-person action-adventure video game, the sequel to Mafia: The City of Lost Heaven. It is developed by 2K Czech, previously known as Illusion Softworks, and is published by 2K Games. The game is set from 1943 to 1951 in Empire Bay (the name is a reference to New York's state nickname "The Empire State"), a fictional city based on San Francisco and New York City, with influences from Chicago and Detroit. The game features a completely open-ended game map of 10 square miles. No restrictions are included from the start of the game. There are around 50 vehicles in the game, as well as licensed music from the era.
While under Mafia II we do fall a little short of that 60 FPS average we like to get, we're so close to it at 1680 x 1050 that it doesn't really matter and the smallest drop in detail would get it for us.

mingwex dll patch
I have run into problems compiling other DLLs that
require C99 functionality on mingw32. The problem is
that (as far as I know) a DLL can't depend on a static
archive because all symbols must be resolved at link time.
On UNIX this is not the case and shared objects can
depend on static archives to be linked in by the
executable that uses the shared object.
Most features in mingw are exported via a DLL import
library built to point to a MS dll in the runtime
environment. Functionality added by mingw such as
libmingwthrd is also put into a DLL.
The only functionality not in a DLL is libmingwex. I
was trying to build a DLL that requires C99 features
and was unable to do so because libmingwex (required
for C99 features) was unavailable as a DLL. Libtool
complains it can't find a DLL or import library.
To fix this, I have modified the mingw-runtime Makefile
to build a static archive, a DLL, and an import library
for libmingwex. It borrows the dlltool weirdness from
the build of the libmingwthrd DLL.
I used a different naming convention for this DLL than
was used for libmingwthrd. I used the naming
convention of libtool-1.5 that says that the libfoo.a
is the static archive, libfoo.dll.a is the import
library and libfoo-version.dll is the DLL.
This works well in my cross compile environment on
Linux but perhaps the abbreviated naming convention for
libmingwthrd was done for a reason. If this is so, the
mingwex name should be similarly abbreviated.
I am attaching the patch here. The patch is against
mingwex dll patch
Logged In: YES
What do you think about this?
Logged In: YES
Since I posted this bug I've been working on building up a
set of libraries for cross builds using w32api, mingw, glib,
gtk, etc. In the process, I found more functionality that
was built into static libs and not dlls. I had to make
similar changes in these cases. Specifically, I had to do
this to several libraries in w32api.
Because the existing mingw/w32api naming scheme had no way
to distinguish between static libs and dll import libs and
because I had already broken compatibility, I went ahead
and changed the library naming convention for mingw and
w32api to that of libtool-1.5 like I described in the
original report.
In addition, I took advantage of newer versions of binutils
that build dlltool-like functionality into ld and removed
much of the dll-building complexity from the makefiles
without making the leap to libtool and/or automake.
I hadn't bothered posting patches due to the fairly large
changes they would bring, and due to a percieved lack of
interest here.
Since I see that someone is reading these bug/feature
reports, I figured I might as well post a more complete and
up-to-date patch and see what happens.
I would be happy to provide my similar (and somewhat more
drastic) w32api patch as well if there is any interest.
mingw 3.1 dll/build/naming patch
w32api 2.4 dll/build/naming patch
Logged In: YES
Re: libmingwex as dll.
I disapprove of the proposal to create a libmingwex.dll.a and
install it in a system directory. This will make the dll version of
libmingwex the default (ld gives libfoo.dll.a higher priority than
libfoo.a when searching for -lfoo). Hence, by default, an app
that links against libmingwex will require redistribution of
libmingwex.dll. This will surprise many users who do not
expect or want this behaviour. Perhaps, if the import lib was
renamed, say, libmingwex_so.dll.a, then the libmingwex dll
could co-exist with the static lib without upsetting current
default behaviour.
A libmingwex.dll will need some kind of dllimport macro in
getopt.h for the exported data symbols (optarg, opterr,
optind, optopt, optreset).
The problem of using static libmingwex.a functions in dll is a
libtool problem. From the command line, it is quite easy to
create a dll that uses these functions (just as it is quite
easy -- but not necessarily efficient -- to create a C++ dll
that uses libstdc++.a functionality)
Re: renaming of existing import libs
Renaming of libmsvcrt.a (and friends) and the w32api import
libs to *.dll.* 's will cause some inconvenience when users
update their current toolset to the new naming scheme: The
old libfoo.a libs will probably need to be removed to prevent
duplication and confusion. But this may cause problems if
projects use explicit full names in naming their library's (eg
they have a --library libws2_32.a on their command line).
The w32api changes will also affect cygwin users.
I don't know how this will affect Watcom, which also uses the

1) This is a feature request and not a Bug.

I just this weekend returned from a one week Tokyo bizcation (business and pleasure), where I got my fill of great food, great temples, great cherry blossoms and Chinese tourists. But rather than me go off and tell you what I saw of the Chinese tourists, I will instead discuss how the Japanese are reacting to them, starting with this article from The Nanfang entitled Chinese Tourists Rampage Through Japan's Cherry Blossoms.

When Going to China, Be Paranoid About Your Data and Your Privacy
"Paranoia is just having the right information."
― William S. Burroughs
The lawyer's job is to discern risk and help their clients to avoid them. Put another way, we are both trained and paid to be paranoid.
Years ago, when I was in Tokyo on a particularly sensitive matter, I left my hotel room as I had done pretty much every day for the last 7-8 days and starting walking to my subway stop. Then for some reason I got a strange feeling about having left my laptop computer in my hotel room and I decided to return. When I did, there were two very well dressed men wearing black suits and ties looking at my turned on laptop. I immediately asked them (in English) what the ____ they were doing in my room and one of them responded in shockingly good English that they were with the hotel and just checking on my internet. To this day, I have little doubt that they were with Japan's Secret Service.
I just read a lawyer-written article, Privacy Tip #15 – Protecting your privacy during holiday travel, that provides some good tips for maintaining your privacy when you travel. The article lists out the following, with my comments in italics:
- Don't leave your laptop, tablet. USB drive, other removable media or mobile phone in your car trunk. I never ever ever put anything in the trunk of a taxi or other car. I take it all with me and put it on the seat.
- Don't leave your laptop, tablet or mobile phone unattended on a plane or train. Agreed. In addition to this, you should make sure to constantly remove sensitive data from your devices and store it elsewhere
- Use complex passwords on all devices so if you forget them or they are stolen, your data is not immediately vulnerable and accessible. This should go without saying.
- Be careful not to store or leave your devices in the seat pockets of airplanes or trains. This is indeed a good thing to guard against.
- Destroy your travel documents (including boarding passes) when you are finished with them by shredding them. I rip mine up in the airplane and give half to the flight attendant and dump the other half in the first garbage can I see upon disembarking.
- Lock your laptop and other mobile devices in your hotel safe. Hotel safes are not as safe as widely believed. Which is why stripping your devices of confidential information and using complex passwords is always critical.
- Wipe your laptop before and after you travel to high risk areas such as China, Russia, the Ukraine, Iran or Iraq. Agreed. Just not sure there are any low risk areas.
- Use your VPN connection any time you are accessing your company information and not free wifi. Agreed. When I am out of the country, there are certain websites I will not check under any circumstances. I instead request that other lawyers or staff go to those sites for me and report back or I ask them to send me what I need.
- Frequently update your virus and firewall protections. Good idea.
When going to China and to many other countries as well, I assume my hotel room and my phones (including my own cell phone) is bugged and my internet is monitored. I assume the worst and I take every measure I can to be careful. I have plenty of stories to tell involving people who were not careful about their data.
1. Many years ago, I was staying on the business floor of the Hotel Lotte in Pusan, Korea. Back then this floor had a couple of computers for its guests. I got on one of those computers (to read the news) and the first thing that popped up was a letter written by a Seattle company revealing information I know they would not have wanted me (or anyone else) to see. Someone from this company had written this letter on the computer (in Word format) and simply left it there. Not smart.
2. Many times I have gotten on the internet at an airport computer and been let right into someone's webmail account. Not smart.
3. I once found a memory stick in the desk drawer of my hotel in Shanghai that contained an incredible amount of information on a European plastics company. Another time, on the floor of my hotel room in Los Angeles, I found a USB stick from a leading fashion company, listing out who at the company should be kept and who should be laid off. Not smart.
3. A stockbroker I know was sent an email by a rival stockbroker, urging my stockbroker friend to oppose some proposed law that would strike hard at those with massive net worth. The stockbroker who sent out this email cc'ed it to a half dozen or so of his clients and my friend figured these were people with the requisite massive net worth and he cold-called them for their business. He ended up getting a great client with this tactic. Not smart.
4. Many years ago, a client of ours discovered one of its employees was running a rival business within my client's business. My client then arranged for this employee to bring his two company laptops to the office and then when the employee went out to lunch, my client locked him out. You would not even believe the stuff we found on those laptops. I am talking both business and personal. Very, very personal. Naked photos with mistress personal. Not smart.
5. Many years ago, I was going to a particular city in a former Communist country and my client and I agreed that, above all else, I should completely avoid meeting with or even talking to "Oleg" [made up name here]. I had to go to this city, but I was going to be there for only two days. I fly in, walk into my hotel lobby and, before I can even check in, two people come up to me and say that Oleg will be coming by to take me to dinner at 7:00 pm. I felt I had to go at that point and when I asked Oleg how he knew of my arrival, he said that he gets emailed the list of all foreigners as soon as they arrive. Oleg runs a very successful private business. The moral of this story is that you should never assume that you can go into a country completely unnoticed.
The New York Times did an article a few years ago, Traveling Light in a Time of Digital Thievery, detailing the steps Kenneth Lieberthal takes before going to China:
He leaves his cellphone and laptop at home and instead brings "loaner" devices, which he erases before he leaves the United States and wipes clean the minute he returns. In China, he disables Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, never lets his phone out of his sight and, in meetings, not only turns off his phone but also removes the battery, for fear his microphone could be turned on remotely. He connects to the Internet only through an encrypted, password-protected channel, and copies and pastes his password from a USB thumb drive. He never types in a password directly, because, he said, "the Chinese are very good at installing key-logging software on your laptop."
What do you do to protect your data and your privacy when you travel?
On Leaving China: Bill Bishop of Sinocism
As regular readers know, I love when someone else writes my blog posts for me. Ryan McLaughlin, an old China hand, now living in remotest Canada (is that redundant?), did that honor for me the other day via his Facebook page.
A couple weeks ago, I listened to a Sinica podcast staring Bill Bishop. For those who don't know, Bill has been writing Sinocism since forever and anyone who is anyone with respect to China has been reading for that same amount of time. I do not distinguish myself at all by saying that it is one of the first things I read pretty much every day.
Sinica describes the BB episode as follows:
As anyone who reads the Sinocism newsletter knows, Bill Bishop is among the most plugged-in people in Beijing with an uncanny ability to figure out what is actually happening in the halls of power. But as casual readers may not be aware, he is also an excellent podcast guest due to his habit of bringing first cupcakes and now amazingly smooth bottles of Japanese whisky to our recording sessions before trading the latest gossip about the goings-on in Zhongnanhai.
On today's show we mark Bill's departure from China and his return to the United States where he plans to live for the next few years with his family. While not exactly your requisite "Why I Am Leaving China" blog post, this show gives Kaiser Kuo and David Moser the chance to talk to Bill about the reasons behind his decision, and explore why he sees an increasingly strained relationship between China and the United States over the next few years.
Like I said, I listened to this podcast a few weeks ago. And at the end of it, I thought about writing on it so as to encourage others to listen to it as well, but not being so good at rapid and concise summarizing, I ended up punting. Until now, upon seeing the following on Ryan's FB page:
Finally got around to listening to The Sinica Podcast's recent episode with Bill Bishop. It should be required listening for anyone with even a remote interest in China. Gives a fantastic Reader's Digest version of the past two decades of China, and does a decent job explaining where things are at today and why…
And something about Bill leaving China.
That's about it. Oh, and I too recommend that you to listen to it.
China Business Dexterity And How To Achieve It
Clients doing business in China often ask our China lawyers what they should read "to prepare for China" and our answers to that question usually vary with the client and the circumstances. How is that for a lawyer answer?
But for clients with little to no experienced with conducting business overseas, I have of late been recommending the book, Global Dexterity: How to Adopt Your Behavior Across Cultures without Losing Yourself in the Process, by Andy Molinsky, a professor of organizational behavior at Brandeis International Business School. I was reminded of that today when a friend sent me a link to a Fast Company Magazine article by Molinsky, entitled, Master the Art of Adapting to a Foreign Office Culture.
This article starts out with a situation in which pretty much all of us who do business overseas have encountered:
If you have ever lived or worked in a foreign culture, you have likely confronted situations in which the natural, comfortable "default" behavior from your native culture turns out to be ineffective for a situation you find yourself in within a new cultural environment.
In each of these situations, you don't just struggle with understanding cultural differences. Rather, you struggle with the far more challenging task of actually changing your culturally ingrained behavior. I call this ability global dexterity—the capacity to adapt your behavior, when necessary, in a foreign cultural environment to accommodate new and different expectations that vary from those of your native cultural setting.
Molinsky then discusses the tension between changing so as to conform to your foreign surroundings so as to end the discomfort, but not changing so much as to become "inauthentic." I personally can relate to this tension and I often hear others expressing similar concerns. You want to adapt but at the same time retain your "core." And it is not just people that face this tension; companies do as well. See Explanations For Apple's China Success, where way back in 2010 I talk about how Apple's China success is due in large measure to its having "stuck to its knitting."
Molinsky's prescription for resolving the tension is to first learn the cultural rules, or what he calls the cultural code. He defines the cultural code as each "situation you face—whether it's learning to give constructive criticism, make small talk, negotiate, participate at a meeting, or ask a favor of your boss—has certain rules for appropriate behavior in a given cultural setting." He then portrays them in terms of six dimensions that capture the expectations that others have for our behavior in a foreign setting":
These six dimensions represent key aspects of communication that differ across cultures, and that previous researchers in psychology and cross-cultural communication have shown to predict important personal and professional outcomes. Of course, there are many potential dimensions of communication style, and these six features are not the only dimensions that exist, or that differ across cultures. However, in my experience, this particular set does an excellent job at capturing cultural differences in a succinct, but comprehensive manner:
Directness: How straightforwardly you're expected to communicate in a particular situation. Are you expected to say exactly what you want to say, or to "hint" at something in a more indirect manner?
Enthusiasm: How much emotion and energy you are expected to show when communicating. Can you express how you feel, or is it more appropriate to hide your positive feelings?
Formality: The amount of deference and respect you are expected to display with your communication style. Are you expected to show a high level of respect when communicating with someone in a particular situation, or can you be more informal?
Assertiveness: How strongly you are expected or allowed to voice your opinion and advocate your point of view in a particular culture and in a particular situation in that culture. Should you be forthright in expressing yourself, or work at hiding or sublimating your point of view?
Self-promotion: The extent to which you can speak positively about yourself in a given cultural situation. Should you actively promote your positive qualifications or be more self-effacing?
Personal disclosure: The extent to which it is appropriate to reveal personal information about yourself to others. Should you be open and forward in expressing details about your life, or is it more appropriate to hide these personal details?
Each situation you encounter in a foreign setting will have a specific cultural code for behavior along each of these dimensions. When motivating workers in India, there is a certain level or amount of assertiveness that you will be expected to show as a leader. When bonding with work colleagues after hours at a restaurant or bar in Japan, a certain level of enthusiasm is expected, which is quite different from how enthusiastically you are expected to behave in other situations that you might encounter in Japan.
I know the above sounds complicated, but I do think that just reflecting upon these sorts of issues can help one to better navigate business in foreign countries like China. And hey, even if it doesn't, it certainly can make for interesting discussions.
Do you agree?
Beijing Wins World's Most Livable City Honor: Fong's Pizza Proves The Point
According to yet another highly scientific and thoroughly researched study, Beijing was just named as the world's most livable city. No big surprise there, what with its recently cleaned air, its friendly cab drivers, and its overall friendly and polite vibe. The fact that it has such pure drinking water and low rents no doubt aided in this choice. Paris came in second, which makes complete sense, particularly if you are Jewish and have no problem living in a city where large swaths are no-go zones. It also may be the only city in the world with cab drivers as pleasant as in Beijing, and its citizens match Beijing's really one for one in both friendliness and politeness.
And rounding out the top three — again no surprise here — is Des Moines, Iowa. If you doubt this choice, I have two words for you Fong's Pizza.
How do you rank the world's cities on livability?
Ben's China Blog Is Back. Enjoy It While You Can.
Way back in 2007, in a post entitled, Promising China Blog: Ben's Blog Is Certainly "Cutting Edge," we highlighted what was then called Ben's Blog: A Midwesterner in the Middle Kingdom. At that point, Ben described himself and the purpose of his blog, as follows:
My name is Benjamin Ross and I am an American originally from Kansas City. I finished college in 2003 and came to China the following year. My reasons for coming to China were that I wanted to experience a lifestyle completely different from my cushy life in the "burbs." I wanted to be shocked and isolated. I also wanted to learn a foreign language and actually have the chance to use it. For this reason, I did not want to go to a major city like Beijing or Shanghai. Rather, I found a job in Fuqing, a small town located in Fujian province in Southeastern China. For a year and a half I worked there as a University English teacher, until I moved to Fuzhou (the provincial capital in Summer of 2005. My current gig is doing ethnographic research for Pacific Ethnography.
I am also an amateur writer and photographer. Unless otherwise noted, all of the photography on this site was done by me. While in China I have also worked as an interpreter, TV extra, regular game-show contestant, and token white guy. Interesting (and often humorous) things happen in China all the time, so this blog is where I try to keep people up to date of what's going on in my little corner of the Middle Kingdom.
What made Ben's blog unique, however, was his foray into hair cutting (hence the incredibly witty title of my "cutting edge" post). Ben worked as a trainee at a local barbershop for less than $100 a month to get a better feel for China's working class:
As an American living in China, I have spent the last three years of my life enjoying the benefits of being a citizen of a country which is far wealthier than the one in which I reside. I travel around town by taxi. I drink at expensive bars. I eat sushi. I take trips across the country, and when my apartment is dirty, I call a maid to clean it up. My life is not that different from the other several hundred Westerners who call Fuzhou home. We all come to China for the "China experience," but we still live our lives with the advantages of being Westerners. But what is it like to be one of the 6 million Chinese residents of Fuzhou, especially those of the working class? For us China is fun and relaxing. It's a place we come to expand our horizons, to learn a culture, to spend our copious free time studying Tai Chi and Chinese cooking or picking up girls at the bar. But for Fuzhou's working class, there is no such fun and relaxation, no time for hobbies and no money for Tsingtaos at the pub. Work is a way of life and a means for survival.
Tomorrow I will begin a one-month stint as a ?? (trainee) at a local barber shop/salon. The manager will be treating me just like any other beginning employee his first days on the job. I will be starting at the very bottom of the barbershop food chain, and my duties will include sweeping hair, cleaning bathrooms, assisting barbers, and entertaining customers as they have their hair cut. Throughout the month I will have only three days off, and work the rest from 9 am to 8 pm. I will essentially be a slave to my job which for one month pays what I would make in one day of teaching English.
What I hope to gain from this experience is an understanding of what Chinese workers go through on a daily basis. What is it like to work a job 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, for a salary of less than $100 a month? How will this put into perspective my life in China as a foreigner, or my life in America as an American? How does the other half (or in this case 99.9%) live, and how do the respond to a foreigner trying to do the same? I hope to find the answers to these questions, and hopefully have a little fun doing it. I will be keeping my blog updated daily for the next month, so check back regularly for updates, and wish me luck. I'm going to need it.
I loved Ben's blog back then because I loved Ben's observations regarding the people with whom he worked and their industry. But Ben left China in August 2007 and eventually pursued a Ph.d in Sociology at the University of Chicago.
But for reasons of which I am not aware (and having just learned this from Facebook) Ben is back in China and blogging again about the business of hair in his inimitable style. The first post I read from his latest China trip is entitled Why has everything in China gotten more expensive…except for haircuts? and that post as well as anything that I have read anywhere encapsulates the brutal cost increases and competition that pretty much all companies — foreign and domestic — face when trying to do business in China. If you are interested in China from just about any perspective, including business, I urge you to start reading Ben Ross's Blog (it's current name). Take advantage of it while Ben is there as this is likely to be a limited time offer.
China Holiday Schedule 2015: THE Infographic
The China Holiday Schedule 2015 infographic below comes from Ryan McLaughlin's consistently excellent and important Lost Laowoi Blog.

China's Horrible Flight Delays. Makes Doing Business In China Even Tougher.
As most everyone who flies around China already knows, flight delays are maddeningly common there. As anyone who has been doing much flying around China in the last few months already knows, those flight delays are becoming even more common and even longer.
And now Business Week tells us that things are only going to get worse. In China's Horrible Flight Delays Are About to Get Worse, Business Week's Beijing Bureau Chief Dexter Roberts informs us of the following:
Those who fly China's not-so-friendly skies are about to spend even more time grounded. "Passengers in east and central China will face mass flight delays until Aug. 15, the China Daily reported on July 22.
China's official English language paper cited as its source a report by news.cnr.cn, the website of China National Radio. National radio reporters, in turn, spoke to China's civil aviation authority, which confirmed that delays are expected at Hongqiao and Pudong airports in Shanghai, as well as in major cities nearby, including Nanjing, Hangzhou, Hefei, Wuxi, Jinan, and Qingdao.
Great. Our China lawyers are already having to adjust. Just last week, one of them was to go to from Beijing to Wuhan to meet with a client at 5:00 p.m. Rather than risk her being late, we decided to fly her in the day before. Guess what happened? The client's flight was delayed and the meeting did not take place until the following morning. Either way, we sprang for an extra night in a hotel and all because we cannot rely on the flight schedule.
Hardly any foreign companies doing business in China have not already or will not be impacted by this. What are you seeing out there?
A Post In Which I Bitch (Yet Again) About China Hotels
I wish it were not so, but I have apparently developed quite the reputation for complaining about service in Chinese hotels. See e.g., Beijing Sheraton Great Wall. China Writ Large Or Me Just Being Petty? Prior to my Great Wall post, I would typically point out one or two examples of bad service at a China hotel that would be incredibly unusual anywhere else.
I just got returned from a couple of weeks traveling on business through Asia, and while there, two people emailed me to say that they hoped my China hotel experiences would be better this time.
I spent time in Japan, Singapore, Vietnam and Korea. And I spent two nights in Beijing on a 72 hour (free) visa that I picked up at Beijing Capital Airport. Just as an aside, it took me all of about 45 seconds to get that visa; it is great!
I was traveling alone and there for only two days and so I decided I would go upscale. So I stayed at a very well known, very expensive, very swanky Western-owned five star hotel. The hotel is gorgeous in every way and in most respects, the service was amazing.
Nonetheless, I once again experienced an incident that again makes me wonder what the hell is up with service in China.
But before I tell you about that incident, let me note that it was only at my Beijing hotel that I had any complaints about my trip. I spent five days at a $100 a night Sheraton in Hanoi and it was great. All I really want is decent service.
So what happened at the Five Star Beijing Hotel? My first morning there I went down for a buffet breakfast. The breakfast room is gorgeous, with marble floors. I loaded up my plate, to include two tiny ears of corn and I was walking to grab some bread when I slipped and fell. Somehow, and truly amazingly, I was able to catch my fall while keeping the plate balanced; the two ears of corn flew off, but that was it. Two Americans right there clapped.
Some guy from the hotel ran over, clearly worried about my fall. I insisted that I was fine (I was) and I pointed out a puddle of water maybe a foot long and a foot wide where I fell. I then looked around and noted and pointed out another puddle maybe ten feet away. The guy who had run over to me started quietly yelling at an elder woman who immediately wiped up my puddle. I went back to my seat, ate a bit and then decided to come back for more.
What did I see? You guessed it. Three small puddles spaced around the breakfast room, including the one ten feet from the one that tripped me up. The cleaning staff had cleaned up "my" puddle but nobody had looked around for more puddles or cleaned up the other one I pointed out. It is unbelievable to me that neither the guy nor the woman made any real effort to make sure that the floor was completely safe. It seems all that concerned them was impressing upon me that they were fixing things.
After breakfast, I met with a China lawyer friend who has been in Beijing for about a year and told him what had happened. I asked him whether my always "seeing" things like this in China was because I was being unfair or hyper-critical or what? I asked him why it was ALWAYS China. He immediately said it's China and not me. He said that he deals with stuff like this all the time.
He then told me of how at his son's Chinese emblematic school the kids were told of how they were going to start playing baseball. They were to buy uniforms. His kid was thrilled and my lawyer friend went out and bought the uniform and some equipment for his son. A baseball coach was brought in and for a couple days he taught the kids some skills. On a Saturday or a Sunday, a bunch of schools got together and everyone played a game. The kid loved it. The head of the school and various government functionaries all spoke about sports in the schools, etc.
And then that was it. Just the one game. No more practices. No more games.
The China lawyer said that this was emblematic of China. The whole baseball thing was done simply to say that it had been done. It was done to look good. It was done to check something off. It was not done to inculcate the kids with baseball skills or baseball knowledge. According to this lawyer, this is what caused me to slip. China does not really concern itself with quality. It concerns itself with appearances. The goal is to be "good enough" not "great." He said this, not me.
So again, I ask, what is going on here?
Join Our China Law Blog Group On Linkedin
We started a China Law Blog Group on Linkedin with the goal of creating a spam-free source for China networking, information and discussion. We now have nearly 8,500 members and, more importantly, a number of lively discussions.
We have had some absolutely terrific discussions, both based on the numbers (a number of the discussions have received around 100 comments and some have gone over 200) and on their substance. Our discussions have ranged from practical (such as, how do I open a China bank account or what are the best practices for a China Joint Venture or what is the most important thing to do for doing business in China) to deep think (such as, what is the future of rule of law in China? or what are the differences in how Chinese companies and French companies are run).
What also boosts the group is its diversity of membership. We have a large contingent of members within China and without. Some members are China lawyers, but the overwhelming majority are not. We have senior personnel (both China attorneys and executives) from both large and small companies and a whole host of junior personnel as well. We have students and we have professors. This mix only contributes to the high level of discussions.
I am most proud of how (at least as far as I know) no spam item has yet lasted on the site for anything even approaching 24 hours.
If you want to learn more about China law or business, if you want to discuss China law or business, or if you want to network with others doing China law or business, I suggest you check out our China Law Blog Group on Linkedin and join up. The more people in our group, the better the discussions.
We will see you there. Click here and join us.

I just can't wait to post these sexy pictures of Marian Rivera. She's not a bold star but there are pictures here that shows some skin of Marian. She's kinda hot, in fact, she was chosen as the FHM girl for 2008 although she did not posed for a sexy pictorial there.
I downloaded a picture of Marian showing some skins in her %&#^$@ while dancing with actor Dingdong Dantes but I just can't find it now. I'll post it later when I find it. For the meanwhile you need to see these pictures:

The Washington Post announces it's a liberal newspaper by highlighting right-wing extremism and coddling left-wing extremism. Both of these happened in Sunday's paper. The front page carries a story on the threat of "patriot" groups in Oregon – the only times the Post wants to present people defending liberty and the Constitution is when they're 9-11 truthers who conduct paramilitary exercises on weekends.
But The Washington Post Magazine carried an article that made a platform for "The New Language of Protest," asking campus leftists to explain "safe spaces," "trigger warnings," and "microaggressions." Shutting down speech is somehow described as "a new civil rights movement."

Industry Tips
BBBs do not advise consumers on which insurance program they should purchase, since everyone has different individual needs. However, before replacing one's current insurance with a policy from a different company, it would be prudent for a policyholder to:
1. Ask the representative selling replacement insurance for a written sales proposal and comparison disclosure statement, (some states require this) and a copy of the policy or policies being offered. Carefully review this information. Make sure all promises are confirmed in writing.
2. Have your present insurance agent give you a written comparison of your existing insurance with the proposed replacement insurance to assist you in determining whether it is to your advantage to switch to another insurance program.
3. Before you drop your current insurance coverage for another plan, find out if the new coverage is effective immediately. If not, you may wish to keep your current coverage at least until the new policy will pay benefits to you.
4. Always obtain a receipt from any person to whom you release your policies for review.
5. Check with your state insurance commission to make sure that the insurance underwriter or carrier and agent offering replacement insurance are licensed in your state.
6. Buy only the amount of insurance you need and can afford.
