Remember business cards? They're back, in pog form!
Don't forget to pick up some radical vintage slammers!
Remember business cards? They're back, in pog form!
Don't forget to pick up some radical vintage slammers!
I pre-ordered a Raspberry Pi a few months ago and it arrived last week. It still sits on my desk in it's box waiting for a use. Basically, it's a credit card sized, ARM-powered computer that can run Linux and costs about 35 dollars. All you need is an SD card for the OS and a USB power supply that provides the right voltage.
I'm thinking of using this as a video streaming device for my living room, since it has onboard HDMI that can output HD resolution. I would take my Linux video server that is currently connected directly to the TV and make it headless in a closet, then rig up the Pi behind the TV with a USB wifi adapter and a bluetooth adapter so I can connect a mouse and keyboard. It could get wired directly to my router since it has onboard LAN too. Once I get this all up and running I will post my impressions of it, but right now it remains a curiosity in an anti-static bag.
I finally decided to update this thing again, it has been on the back burner for so long. The overall focus of this website will now change to a more general focus on gadgets/electronics rather than hi-fi audio, a niche with limited appeal. Updates will follow as I begin to generate more content. Thanks for your patience, and check back regularly.
I apologize for for not updating in a long time; the timesink of a real job instead of being a wannabe pro blogger gave me less opportunities to write for this thing. Rest assured, I have since acquired a ton of new records I intend to review in the coming weeks.
Singles are often overlooked by hi-fi enthusiasts, disregarded as junk in favor of limited edition 180g boxsets and the like. In some ways they were the MP3s of the vinyl era: cheap, tradeable, compact, and expendable. So expendable that they are a dime a dozen these days and often in very poor shape (people used to stack them up on their turntable, removing one after each track to create a primitive playlist). But despite the difficulty of finding singles in good condition, they are a good way to get some easy wax into your collection. In addition to affordability, they have a supposed sound benefit because the 45 RPM speed allows greater spacing between the grooves which in turn permits better dynamics.
I own only a few singles, most of which I took from my father's collection. The rarest in the collection is probably "Robot Love / For Adolfs Only" by The Valves , an incredibly early punk band from Edinburgh. Unfortunately, my copy was wrecked when a girl I was dating sat on it. I was sorting through my collection and set the single down on the couch next to me, she plopped down without realizing and hairline cracked the damn thing. The whole thing was my fault entirely but I got mad at her regardless, and we broke up like a month later (for other reasons, but the record cracking incident was the start of the downfall). Anyway, I'm going to give some of my singles a good listen and report back on the sonic quality or lack thereof.
Joy Division – "Love Will Tear Us Apart / These Days" : The krautrock-esque drums snap outward (but the hihat sizzles in the distance). Ian Curtis' robotic murmuring emanates from the dead center, the synths swirl and the guitar just kinda stays there. When I flipped it over to "These Days" I hadn't noticed that side B was at 33 RPM and briefly wondered why it was some cheesy New Order dance remix…yeah. Curtis sounds even more like an android on this tune, proper speed or not. The percussion is desperately thin but the guitars are at least up to something. Track 2 on side B is some kind of alternate take for "Love Will Tear Us Apart", and frankly it just sucks.
Nirvana – "Sliver / Dive" : The vinyl is quiet for a used record, ill give it that, but this kind of stuff is hard to judge on audiophile grounds. At the beginning, the bass intro sounds promising but it disappears into mush which I guess is the point. Side A ends with a pointless recording of a hung over / strung out Cobain on the phone with his producer or something. Side B's "Dive" is a better song and a slightly better recording.
Lou Reed – "Walk on the Wild Side / Perfect Day" : That famous bassline rumbles nicely and the acoustic guitar chills in the right-center channel. The "colored girls" surround Reed on both sides during their bit, but the rest of Reed's vocals get that irritating sibilance which I pin more on the record wear rather than a flaw in the recording. An unfortunate buzzing quality affects the closing sax solo. "Perfect Day" lacks most of these sonic faults for some reason. The occasional popping and clicking enhances this intensely defeating and ironic tune.
So despite that these singles aren't shining examples of acoustic brilliance, they are still worthy components of my music library. The only real pain in the ass associated with them that my turntable ( the Pro-ject Debut III) doesn't have a speed control so I have to remove the platter and physically move the belt to a different part of the motor when I want to switch between 33/45 . Fortunately, there exists a speed box that you plug in between the power source and the table which adjusts the motor speed.
If you're like me and live in the Washington, DC area, you know that flipping through the radio stations is an exercise in frustration. You basically have the choice among no less than three classic rock stations with identical lineups of tired 70s dadrock, some top 40 channels, a few hip-hop/rnb networks, a couple of bro-rock stations featuring imbecilic Morning Zoo programs, classical and NPR at the bottom of the dial, and the rest is filled out by latin stations or those "mix" channels that are non-stop Cyndi Lauper and Maroon 5 (basically, music for dentist's waiting rooms).
Before I continue: yes, I do sometimes listen to the radio, unlike most people under the age of thirty. There's something reassuring and familiar about the FM dial, despite how its rarely a fulfilling experience. And forgetting higher tech stuff like satellite or HD radio, FM is actually a hi-fi format. If you can get a strong signal, you can get high quality stereo audio for free, provided that the commercials and DJs don't make you tear your hair out. Something cheap and simple like this one from NAD Electronics can get you started off.
The sorry radio offerings around DC are probably the same around most U.S cities, but there was once a great local channel that met a sad demise: WHFS 99.1 . It had been around since the 60s and was eclectic from the get-go: mostly playing prog, art rock and jam bands. In the eighties it took a turn towards indie and "college rock" genres and was the first radio station to play tons of influential groups.
I have many fond memories of listening to this station as a child in the early 90s : rainy Saturdays riding in the back of my dad's old Pontiac Sunbird to the strains of Soundgarden or The Psychedelic Furs. It was the first place I remember hearing dozens of bands: The Pixies, The Chameleons, Kitchens of Distinction, R.E.M., Nirvana, My Bloody Valentine, The Stone Roses, Depeche Mode, Jesus Jones, Stereo Mcs, Big Audio Dynamite, Catherine Wheel, Violent Femmes, Butthole Surfers, The Cure, I could go on and on. Not to say that all of it was good, but it was all memorable. Every so often I'll come across a song that sounds vaguely familiar, and I'll surmise that I must have heard it before on HFS.
By the end of the nineties, the station was starting to go downhill: you were more likely to hear Papa Roach and Eminem rather than Concrete Blonde and The Smiths. This reflected changing demographics and tastes which is entirely understandable, but it just sucked to hear the station losing its focus (but at the time, my middle school-self actually preferred nu-metal and hip hop so it only sucked in retrospect). Finally, WHFS met it's demise on January 12, 2005 when it suddenly switched to playing some kind of Mexican polka music. I recall riding home from school in my friend's car, turning it to HFS and laughing, thinking it was all a lame "wacky" joke. Alas, the switch was permanent, and DC lost its only listenable radio station. Others tried to fill the void, e.g 94.7 "The Globe" which was very HFS-esque for a while then switched to bog standard mix format.
We could blame ClearChannel like a lot of people do, but radio's demise owes a lot to evolving technology and demographics. The only major bit of hope I see is the fact that the latest iPod Nano has an FM tuner feature…but why would anyone under the age of 40 bother with that when there's podcasts and free MP3 downloads compatible with the same device?
For further listening, I found a blog that features old tape recordings of 1980's WHFS and other alt/indie stations.

The Courtney Report
When looking ahead to the 2013 session of the Iowa Legislature, continuing to create jobs and grow Iowa's economy tops my priority list.
We need to do what we can to help more Iowans recover from the national recession. Ensuring that workers can get the training they need must be part of our statewide effort.
This is important because the current skill shortage is proving to be a serious drag on Iowa's economy. By 2018, 62 percent of all jobs in Iowa—1.1 million jobs—will require some training or education beyond high school. Yet nearly 10 percent of Iowa's working-age adults do not have a high school diploma.
By investing now in worker training and retraining, we can make sure Iowans are ready to step into new jobs as the economy rebounds.
Last year, we took a step in the right direction by approving the biggest single-year increase in state general aid to community colleges. We also created new opportunities to earn non-credit skill certificates and launched the new Skilled Workforce Shortage Tuition Grant, also known as "Kibbie Grants." (More on the grants below!)
Here are other ways we can invest in Iowans and in Iowa businesses:
• Cutting commercial property taxes for every Iowa business, especially for small businesses.
• Cutting taxes for working families struggling to make ends meet, thereby boosting the local economy.
• Making it more likely that Iowa and U.S. companies will get state and local government contracts when their bids are cost competitive.
We've made bipartisan progress on these issues in the last couple of years. My hope for 2013 is that we'll keep working together and take some big steps forward.
The new legislative session starts on January 14. Please tell me what you think should be done to boost economic growth and job creation here in Iowa. Call or e-mail me with your ideas.
Iowa ranks 13th in overall business friendliness but only 40th when it comes to labor supply. That's why I'm working to help Iowans get the skills they need to fill in-demand jobs.
Iowa's agricultural manufacturers need more welders, and Iowa businesses in almost every field can't find enough people to run computers and manage software. When employers can't find the skilled workers they need in Iowa, they lose business to competitors, hire people from another state or some other country to do the work, or move their business out of Iowa.
By 2018, 62 percent of all jobs in Iowa will require some training or education beyond high school. In addition to credentials, employers need workers with the professional skills necessary to succeed in the workplace, such as dependability, time management and initiative.
That's why I fought this year for $5 million in Skilled Workforce Shortage Tuition Grants for students attending Iowa's community colleges. Senate File 2321, approved by the Legislature and signed by the Governor, provides grants to Iowans studying full- or part-time at one of our community colleges and are in need of financial help to cover their tuition. Grants are awarded for study in areas where Iowa doesn't have enough workers with the right skills.
About 4,500 students are eligible for the grants this school year. The maximum Skilled Workforce Shortage Tuition Grant is $2,040 for eligible Iowa students who enroll on a full-time basis during the 2012-13 academic year. Grants for full-time students are intended to cover one-half of the average tuition and fees at Iowa community colleges.
A complete summary of the Skilled Workforce Shortage Tuition Grant is available at http://tinyurl.com/SWSTG. For a list of the areas of study eligible for these grants, check out pages 7-10. To find out which programs are available at Southeastern Community College and Eastern Iowa Community College, contact the financial aid offices.
Donate to your local food bank this holiday season
Over the holidays, Iowans will be gathering around the dinner table to celebrate with family and friends.
But for many Iowans, it's a real struggle to put food on the table each day. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 12 percent of Iowa households often lack enough food, or must choose between buying food or buying medicine and other essentials. That means thousands of Iowa children and seniors are not getting the food they need.
During the 2012 session, legislators worked together to make sure Iowans have enough to eat by making a modest $500,000 investment in Iowa's food banks. Our idea passed the House and Senate with overwhelming support but was vetoed by Governor Branstad.
In the meantime, Iowans have faced rising food prices and food banks have seen an increase in the number of Iowans in need.
With about a billion dollars in our savings accounts, Iowa's state budget is in good shape. When the 2013 session rolls around in January, we ought to take another look at how we can help our food banks feed hungry Iowans. It's the right thing to do.
During this season of giving, let's all pitch in to stock the shelves of our local food banks and make sure no Iowan goes hungry. Please join me in supporting our community food banks and local charities.
Nominate an employer for the Support Freedom Award
Through January 17, nominations are being accepted for the Employer Support Freedom Award. This annual award, presented by the Secretary of Defense, is the highest recognition given by the U.S. Government to employers who show outstanding support for employees serving in the Guard and Reserve.
Almost one-half of the U.S. military is comprised of the Guard and Reserve. The Department of Defense shares these citizen warriors with their civilian employers, who often go to great lengths to support employees who serve our country. Do you know an employer who fits this bill? What sets them apart from others?
Any Guard or Reserve member can nominate their employer. If a service member does not have access to submit a nomination, a family member can nominate the service member's employer on their behalf. For more details on the award or to nominate a great employer, go to https://esgr.csd.disa.mil/fa/NominateYourEmployerView.aspx.

Thinking of starting or expanding a business?
Entrepreneurs have a new online business tool to assist them in developing their products and ideas. IASourceLink.com is a one-stop shop to help Iowans access the technical and financial resources that best meet their business needs. In addition, MyEntre.Net, a service of the University of Northern Iowa, provides timely, expert webinars, blogs and resources dedicated to Iowa small businesses.

We Only Have One Earth
I swear, the way some people treat this planet they seem to think humans can hop in a boat or spaceship or something and in a couple of days they will be on another habitable planet just waiting to be plundered. We can't. Of course, most of those seem to be the same rich and powerful that not only run most everything in this country but also run the whole world.
The lack of a grounding in reality that the Republican Party has exhibited for the past 30 years has infected our country. At one time some of their antics were comical at best, but the delay they have caused in addressing quite serious long range issues is now forcing humanity to come face to face with grave consequences.
We recently took a little trip south to Mississippi. During our trip we had to cross the river of the same name. The Mississippi River, the nation's highway for over 200 years, is so low that it is about to be closed to barge traffic. This will cause a huge bottle neck in the nation's commerce, especially moving farm products to port. At the same time reports are coming out that the Ogallala Aquifer has maybe a few decades of water left at the current rates of usage. The Ogallala is used mostly for irrigation, so as it dies, so does much of the farming in the plains.
The water in the Ogallala does not appear through some miracle. Water just isn't dumped into underground storage through the act of some super human entity. No, it is refilled by a very slow trickle through the ground process that will take tens of thousand years or more. There is no other way. The rate of rainfall that will be used to recharge the aquifer is slowing due to climate change. Thus the recharge may take even longer.
The Great Lakes are losing water also. All are down many inches, which is billions of gallons of water. Governments around the Great lakes have already formed a sort of defense force to keep their precious resource from being stolen from them. Water is slowly becoming the forefront of the climate change. At some point decisions will have to be made on who will get the most precious resource we need to live, next to oxygen.
The problem has been slowly coming to a head. Rather than initiating some tough policies to slow or stop the waste and loss of our water, we have as a people chosen to ignore the problem. Like many I thought we may still have some wiggle room until I read this op-ed on Juan Cole's Informed Consent blog this morning. Briefly, guest poster Tom Giesen cites a potentially much warmer climate coming much faster than we expected. So what we thought was some wiggle room has disappeared. While we have been talking of a 2degC rise in temperatures in a century, changes of 4degC or more may happen in a few short decades.
Here are some excerpts, but I recommend you read the entire story.
"Global warming's disasters once seemed far off and science-fictional. It is now becoming clear to the scientific community that, to the contrary, very bad things could happen beginning relatively soon. For Baby Boomers, from the the Cuban Missile Crisis or the assassination of John F. Kennedy in the early 1960s till now does not seem like such a long period of time. But in a similar span of years, taking us to about 2060, the world could well experience an increase in global average temperatures of some 4 degrees Centigrade[1]. If we consider the likely effects of this steep warming trend carefully, it becomes clear that the resulting "four degrees" world (as scientists call it) is far less hospitable for humans than our own, a world so inhospitable that we must avoid creating it at any cost.
Consider these scenarios, thought highly likely by scientists:
A temperature increase of 4 degrees C. will cause a 40% reduction in corn and rice crops, and loss of other agricultural produce, as well. The world doesn't have fewer mouths to feed over time, and a decline in these key staples will likely produce widespread starvation..
People will be forced from their homes, like so many Syrian refugees, on a grand scale — from coastal areas because of rising seas; from areas no longer habitable due to high temperatures or drought; and from changing industrial and commercial practices.
Other effects include ice melting, weather extremes, ocean acidification, loss of coral reefs, changes in stream flows, large losses in biodiversity, water shortages, forest dieback and fires, and so on – the list is very long.
A temperature increase of 4 degrees C is now thought likely to cause the disintegration of an organized global community. A four degree world will likely be so altered that human society cannot adapt to it."
Wish I had some comforting words, but I do not. Science has known of climate change for a hundred years. Lyndon Johnson warned of the effects of climate change nearly 50 years ago and urged action then. We were warned and have done nothing thanks in major part to those who make money effectively stopping any action.

Socorro Whataburger gives way to new intersection
EL PASO, Texas - Where's Whataburger?
Due to a Texas Department of Transportation project, some in Socorro have had to say goodbye to a popular food chain restaurant.
The Alameda and Horizon Boulevard intersection is being reconstructed. It's all part of a plan to widen Horizon Boulevard from two lanes to four lanes. But one of the casualties is one of the oldest Whataburgers in the El Paso area and it's not coming back.
However, it will soon be a lot easier to negotiate that intersection.
"People came and were asking me, "Do you know what happened to the Whataburger?'" said JoAna Pulgaran, an employee at the nearby Little Caesar's.
The Texas fast food staple disappeared from the Socorro intersection over the Fourth of July, prompting customers at the Little Caesar's next door to ask a lot of questions.
"Maybe it's going to move?" Pulgaran said. "Everybody misses the Whataburger. A lot of people want Whataburger."
Whataburger officials said TxDOT is expanding the roadway and intersection directly adjacent to the restaurant and in order to complete the work:
"They are taking a portion of our property. This change created conditions that require us to close the business and we do not have plans to reopen another Whataburger to replace this location at this time."
Socorro resident Liz Lopez said she drives through the intersection daily.
"It's a very dangerous turn," Lopez said. "We've seen accidents on this corner."
An employee at the nearby AutoZone told ABC-7 that trucks have a hard time taking the corner at Horizon Boulevard and Alameda, leading them to drive through the AutoZone parking lot. ABC-7's Darren Hunt spotted several trucks doing just that.
"I've done that myself," Lopez said.
Whataburger officials said they are "actively exploring other locations in the area" and employees are being "given an opportunity to relocate to a nearby Whataburger restaurant."
TxDOT officials said the project is expected to take less than 10 months to complete.

Still Accumulate Calpine
Calpine (CPN ): Maintains 4 STARS (accumulate)
Analyst: Craig Shere
Shares fell more than 10% in trading Tuesday and Wednesday as one credit agency cut its debt rating to "BB" and S&P put the debt rating on "credit watch negative". The reactions follow an announced new $2 billion credit facility (only $1.6 billion in incremental borrowing capacity) secured by certain assets, which reduces the resources available to pay other creditors. However, Calpine now projects $500 million to $1.4 billion of excess liquidity for 2002. As it finalizes non-core asset sales and the economy picks up, S&P sees sentiment for shares improving. At under seven times S&P's 2002 EPS estimate of $1.65, Calpine shares are very cheap.
Comverse Technology (CMVT ): Maintains 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Ari Bensinger
Before special charges, January quarter EPS was $0.06 vs. $0.41, in line with lowered guidance. Sales fell 23% in a weak telecom-spending environment. Decelerating wireless subscriber growth is lessening demand for the core voice mail services. Comverse's balance sheet is solid, and has over $1.4 billion in cash. The companby sees lower sequential sales and a loss per share in the April quarter. The news is disappointing as S&P had projected the January quarter as the sales bottom. Comverse expects to profit by the end of the fiscal year. Despite difficulties now, long-term growth prospects are solid, and S&P sees enhanced services as the key to increasing carrier profitability.
Microsemi Corp. (MSCC ): Downgrades to 1 STAR (sell) from 2 STARS (avoid)
Analyst: Michael Santicchia
The company is going through a period of uncertain business restructuring, and S&P does not see its main business strategy of shifting toward high-margin products having a meaningful impact any time soon. Although the stock is down 50% in 2002, it will be under further pressure due to still high valuation multiples and general pressure on semiconductor peers. To justify the current price, the company should grow free cash flows at a rate of 50% per year for the next five years.
Computer Associates (CA ): Maintains 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Jonathan Rudy
Shares are down on investor concerns over a $500 millin offering, which includes the option for an additional $100 million offering. Computer Associates expects to use a portion of the proceeds to purchase call spread repurchase options on common stock to limit its exposure to a potential dilution. S&P sees this as a necessary move to alleviate prior short-term liquidity concerns. The company has paid down $400 million of debt in 2002 and should generate over $1 billion in operating cash flow in fiscal 2002 (March). With solid operating cash flow and with shares trading at a discount 2.5 times sales, S&P would hold Computer Associates.
Albertson's (ABS ): Upgrading to 4 STARS (accumulate) from 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Joseph Agnese
The grocery chain posted January quarter EPS of $0.60 before one time items, vs. $0.54 -- $0.05 ahead of S&P's estimate. Sales rose 1.2%, less than expected, reflecting a tough environment. Margins widened more than expected via headcount reductions and a store-level cost reduction program. S&P says restructuring is on track as 80 of 165 planned store closings are completed. Albertson's also announced a plan to exit four markets, resulting in about $580 million in charges. Based on S&P's discounted cash flow model and better than expected results from restructuring, S&P says shares are attractive.
TRW Inc. (TRW ): Maintains 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Efraim Levy
TRW's board again rejected a buyout bid from Northrop Grumman, citing the inadequacy of a $47 per TRW share offer. Management would likely set a low- to mid-$50s offer as the minimum. TRW is considering a spin-off of its automotive business, but also is entertaining various third-party offers to purchase the entire company or individual parts of it, or to make equity investments in the company. The high TRW debt and low valuations for automotive operations limit the upside, but the improving economic outlook is positive. TRW is hosting a morning conference call.
Mentor Graphics (MENT ): Maintains 4 STARS (accumulate)
Analyst: Robert Tortoriello
The maker of electronic design automation systems is in a pact to acquire Ikos Systems for $11 per share cash, or about $102 million. The deal will strengthen Mentor's hardware emulation product line, which is used to rapidly verify chip design functionality. It also provides Mentor with an emulation sales organization in U.S., where it currently does not market emulation products. S&P thinks the merger will improve Mentor's position against larger competitors. S&P also views shares as attractive with a price-earning-to-earnings-growth (PEG) ratio of 1.0, versus a PEG ratio of 1.6 for the S&P 500.

RENO, Nev. – Governor Brian Sandoval has reappointed McDonald Carano Wilson partner Kathleen Drakulich to a four-year term on the Board of the Governor's Office of Economic Development.
As an attorney, Drakulich represents local, national and international energy and public utility firms in a wide array of regulatory matters, procurement matters, supply and purchase contract negotiations, as well as permitting and construction of renewable energy and fossil fuel facilities.
"Energy is a key industry to Nevada's economic development, and I am honored the Governor has offered me this opportunity to lend my knowledge and expertise to Nevada's efforts to continue development in this critically important industry sector," Drakulich said.
In addition to her role at GOED, Drakulich has served on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's Blue Ribbon Panel on Renewable Energy as well as the State of Nevada Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation Task Force.
GOED was created during the 2011 session of the Nevada Legislature as a result of the collaborative effort between the Nevada Legislature and Governor Brian Sandoval to restructure economic development in the state.

I'm not sure where to start, so please bear with me if this is a bit scattered. Before our oldest ds was born, we'd already decided not to vax our kids. I have an insanely strong family history of autoimmune diseases -- every sibling and both parents have at least one AI disease, one sister and my dad have multiples. I myself was diagnosed with RA after my daughter was born but am thankfully able to keep it in check with a careful diet, herbs and acupuncture. My dd was diagnosed with pauciarticular juvenile RA at 2, but again we've been able to treat it quite successfully with supplements, acupressure and physical therapy. My older ds is somewhere on the autism spectrum -- PDD-nos right now -- and seems to be settling into just a comfortable quirkiness as he gets older; his speech patterns are evolving well, he's engaged and curious, outgoing and affectionate.
But now our younger ds is/has been having problems and I'm faced with some very tough decisions regarding vaxing. This past December, he had his first reactive lung incident. At the time, they classified it as bronchiolitis, gave him albuterol treatments and oral steroids and sent us home. A few days later the wheezing came back and he was admitted to the hospital for a couple of days. He was fine for a few months, but then in March had another wheezing attack which sent us back to the ER and another hospital stay. They didn't want to diagnose asthma at his age, so again it was bronchiolitis. Even on controlling meds along with rescue meds, he had yet another attack this past week with another hospital stay. They actually transferred us to the bigger children's hospital from the small one our doctor is on staff at because the small one doesn't have a ped-ICU. I honestly didn't realize how bad the situation was until I got in the front of the ambulance and the medics in back told the driver not to wait for the lights. (it was about 3am and I hadn't slept in 2 days) That's when I got scared. He is ultimately alright and on the mend, but at the follow-up appt with his ped (who is very supportive of our decisions) it was suggested that we seriously consider a couple of vaxes to help get us through the next few seasons, i.e., reduce the complications of anything we do catch.
Never in a million years did I think we'd even be considering it, but here we are. Do we get all of us a few of the respiratory-related vax's and hope that if any of us catch anything it's less severe? Or do we keep on as we are and add in additional supplements and hope for the best? I used to have 100% confidence in our decision. Now after seeing my littlest guy so sick and not being able to breathe and hooked up to the matrix at the hospital... not so much. I'm very concerned the vaxes would have lasting negative effects on ds1, dd and myself. But I'm scared for ds2 as each attack has been worse than the last and none of the natural remedies seem to have any effect on him.
Thanks for reading so much, just trying to work through our options. Any and all opinions welcome!

First of all Im so sorry your son is having such a hard time. How scary for you all
I was confused about this statement "I'm very concerned the vaxes would have lasting negative effects on ds1, dd and myself"
You are considering a few vaxes for your son who is having breathing issues correct? Why would that have any impact on vaccinating yourself and your other children?
Of course I can't comment specifically because Ive never been in your shoes - but my son has in the past had a few scary breathing episodes where he was using a neubulizer. I truly believe to the depths of my sole that vaccines are not safe for my son. I too have alot of folks in my family with autoimmune issues from RA to MS in addition to tons of allergies. But I cannot say what Id do in your shoes. It seems that you guys have tried some natural things - are you working with and ND or just doing stuff on your own? Also what specific vaccines is your ped recommending?

Thanks to you both for replying (and reading all that!). Yes, our family practice doc is recommending flu, pneumo, hib, and pertussis. I can't reply in depth here right now, but will expound later when I get a chance -- basically, I'm very concerned that 1.) my younger ds's immune system is already so stressed from being sick on and off since Dec; has it had time enough to heal? 2.) my daughter's RA will worsen, 3.) my older ds will regress afa language skills and general social skills, and finally 4.) my own RA will worsen.
It's such a rock and a hard place. But having just watched ds2's blood oxygen dip into the lower 70's, I feel enormous responsibility because he's the youngest. Not that I want to throw the rest of us under the bus, but clearly we've all had at least a few years to build up our immune systems. Will check back later.

Yes, to try and minimize what ds2 gets exposed to, and to try and temper the severity. Neither ds1 nor dd have had any vaxes and dh and I haven't had any in over 20 years. Our md is absolutely willing to do one at a time and wait as long as we'd like between them (if we decide on any). Like I said, I never dreamed we'd be in this position -- where a mild cold for the rest of us turns into a very serious situation for ds2 very quickly.
Would love to hear from as many folks as possible -- please share your opinions/experiences. Thanks!
J, partner-in-crime to D, mama to 4, including our brand new , missing my 7-wk-er
Have you gone to see a pediatric pulmonlogist? I would recommend it. And i would def research the asthma/vax link too.
pentacel insert:
i would also have your dr sign a statement saying your son/family will not be harmed or harmed in the future by the vaxes given, and in the event something adverse happens the dr takes full responsibility for your sons demise.
more info:
Thanks for replying! No, so far we've only dealt with our doctor. It's been my experience with the older two that specialists tend to throw even more drugs at the problem, whereas our family practice doc is very much into nutritional, herbal and homeopathic support first, coupled with the least amount of drugs necessary to control the problem. So when he actually suggested the vaxes, which he usually doesn't, I was sort of surprised. This is not a typical md; we'd never ask him to sign a responsibility clause. If he was a combative, close-minded individual who constantly harassed us to vax, sure, I could see doing that. But that's definitely not who our md is.The responsibility lies 100% on our shoulders if we end up vaxing. He, and we, have no way of guaranteeing that no harm will come to any of us either now or in the future. But so far our experience with ds2 has been that very mild respiratory illnesses for the rest of us can turn very bad very fast for him. Catching, say, pneumococcal disease would have serious implications for him. And therein lies my dilemma.

i would still get a 2nd opinion from a pulmonologist. I have had asthma my entire life 45+yrs, and a pulmonary dr will help find what works to prevent the symptoms from happening which will prevent him from developing bronchitis and such. Since i have taken an informative stance on my disease, i know what works for me and what doesn't..i know my triggers and stay away when possible..i have meds if needed when my symptoms warrent, but i manage to only really NEED them about twice a year now. .and i have had pneumoccocal disease....its terrible, but my asthma wasn't the worst of it, the body aches and dizziness was....since then, my bouts of bronchitis havent been nearly as bad as they used to be... everyone's asthma is different. My unvaxed 15yr old son developed asthma when he was 4mos old and had pneumonia. He also had quite a few yrs of severe asthma attacks, and we had to do conventional meds with him at the time which worked in moderation..he outgrew his asthma at age 9 and hasn't had a problem since...I attribute that to his body maturing naturally, minimal medical invasion, our lifestyle, and and immune system that i cannot believe how strong he is.
what kind of asthma controlling meds is your son on? Does he use a nebulizer at home everyday? Does he go to daycare? Is your home old and possibly have mold/mildew in places you dont see? do you have pets? Carpeting?
Thanks again for replying, it's always good to hear from someone who's btdt! Another question popped in my head: if ds is on budesonide 2x/day and the package insert warns against being exposed to chicken pox and/or measles, that would contraindicate him getting the MMR since it's a live-virus vax, correct? He's going to be on it for at least a month or two as a controlling med.
J, partner-in-crime to D, mama to 4, including our brand new , missing my 7-wk-er
Is it a nasal spray or inhaler? And from what i'm reading about it, its more for allergies and to keep allergy symptoms from flaring up. Imo, it doens't sound like your son is getting enough of the right asthma medicine for his lungs. while the budesonide is prolly helping his allergies from setting off his asthma, the underlying cause is still asthma. And there are so many triggers for that disease, i dont see how anyone can pinpoint where/how one gets it. It is an inherited disorder as well as triggered by external influences. And yes, any kind of steroid is a contraindication for exposure to a live virus via vaccine or infected person. Do you use a nebulizer at home for breathing treatments?
The budesonide inhalation suspension he's on is a corticosteroid used as a controlling med for reactive airway-type asthma in a nebulizer. [http://www.drugs.com/pro/budesonide-inhalation-suspension.html] He also has albuterol for the nebulizer in case of an acute attack, and we carry an albuterol inhaler for when we're out & about. He doesn't have any allergies (yet). That's excellent to hear that your son outgrew his asthma. Most of the medical people he's seen seem confident that ds2 will outgrow his as well. It's just getting him to that point as healthy as possible, kwim? Thanks again for your input.
J, partner-in-crime to D, mama to 4, including our brand new , missing my 7-wk-er
A better alternative to albuterol is something called "Xopenex",imo...it doesn't have the side effects of albuterol and it lasts longer too..which means, less meds needed. I found my son not to be as jittery or hyper after using it instead. he liked it better too. I heard of it thru my sis who is a respiratory therapist that works with kids with all kinds of asthmatic tendencies in a special care hospital.
Thanks for the tip emmy526 -- I'll keep that in mind if/when the albuterol needs replacing. Right now, thank goodness, it's working quite well for him and we luckily haven't had any of the side effects kick in, other than an increased heart rate. But that was only in the hospital when they had him on continuous alb.
And thanks too to the folks who pm'd me re: my original questions. Your input is greatly appreciated! I think we've just about settled on a course of action. Happy Solstice everyone!

- - What's The Longest You've Shown 'Tough Love' (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/diet-nutrition/194405-whats-longest-youve-shown-tough-love.html)
What's The Longest You've Shown 'Tough Love'
Most of us have probably had dogs who like most food,but don't like some. How long do you normally hold out before you switch foods? I'm talking about picking it up and putting it back down. The longest I've held out was for 5 days before I finally gave in and provided something else.
2 1/2 maybe 3 days...Smokey is a finicky eater. But I think I've found something he likes for now (crosses fingers). Are you still having trouble with one of your fosters that I remember you posting about before? Got very excited when you prepared her food but wouldn't eat once it was set down???
We've come to the conclusion that Casja is just a very light eater. There are some days that she will eat everything in her bowl and others are just her grazing days. Then sometimes she doesn't eat at all. Vet says she's healthy and to not worry about it. I just wanted to know what some others do as far as how long they hold out.I don't get too many picky dogs,but after 3 days most of them get the point;).
I'm sure you know all the tricks of the trade being so experienced with dogs. But have you tried feeding her with another overzealous dog that likes to eat? Sometimes that'll coax a finicky eater into eating as (I think?) they fear the other dog may eat their food and don't want that to happen. Do you take away her food after about a half an hour? Also, sometimes I put a couple of treats or mix the food with a little bit of cheese. I put it at the bottom of the bowl and then cover it with kibble. Smokey has to dig it out and in the process begins to eat...
Just some of my experience...Hope it helps a lil :)
I don't. I've found that if Jax won't eat it then the chances there is something wrong with it is pretty high. There was a dog food she refused to eat, the Boxer ate it for her. I woke up to pools of blood and diarhea all over the kitchen from the Boxers and Jax was lethargic. Threw the food out, all recovered. That was just after all those dogs and cats died from poisoned food. So I trust her nose. If she won't eat it, it gets tossed.
Having one dog in the home may make a dog picky(no competition to eat?) When I only had one dog I did let her 'free feed'....Clover was given a portion in the morning and she grazed when she wanted to throughout the day. She wasn't really food driven. Enter a puppy.....Clover decided it was not a good idea to leave her food or pup Onyx would get it. After having two dogs, I never free fed again and my dogs now are all good about eating when I dish it out. Kacie will take her food elsewhere to eat(I feed raw) she isn't one to eat her rmb's near her bowl so she eats outside and sometimes takes a 1/2 hour to eat, I have to remind her to eat. If she won't eat, I pick it up and fridge it, but seldom does that happen.
Never, I trust my dogs like Jax08.
What I was referring to is dogs who have been eating the food,but then decide that they don't like what you put down,even though they have been eating it. It would be different if I just purchased the food and they wouldn't touch it.I've had that happen too and of course it was thrown out.
I would have a few different blends(proteins) of the same brand and just rotate. If the dog chose not to eat, I'd probably top it with yogurt or cooked scrambled egg. Unless this dog was overweight, I wouldn't do tough love, because I am too soft! One day, no big deal but by day three of a dog not eating would really concern me/I'd look at the mouth, dentition and other reasons why no appetite? Hormones, thyroid....

Getting pond ready for fish?
Hello, I recently put in a small pond. I filled it yesterday with water and have the pump running. I have a biological filter, mechanical filter, and a UV clarifier. I have had it running for a full day to clear the water up.
What else do I need to do to get it ready for fish?
Do I need to do something to get rid of the chlorine?
Chlorine will go away naturally
Since you've not heard from someone more knowledgeable than me, I will jump in with my limited experience. Chlorine will go away naturally with aeration and it takes about 3 or 4 days maximum, as for other water conditioning, it is best to get advice from your fish supplier. I have heard that some of these ponds should be set up for a couple of weeks or more to allow the right bacteria to build up and PH levels to stabilize.
While I have no experiance with ponds, I do have a lot of experiance with aquarium fish.
up until the late eighties allowing your water to age was an appropriate method to dechlorinate water. These days they put 'stuff' in the water that will not age out. There are some rural areas where ageing still works fine but if you live anywhere near a major city I would not trust it. You will need to buy a dechlorinator. I recomend Seachem Prime.
You will also need to cycle your filter. This means you need to build up a biological media in your filter. If you don't your fish will either die or struggle to survive.
I would get is a water test kit. Aquaclear kits are very good. If you detect any Ammonia or Nitrites I would not put fish in. My best advice is to take your time.
Tropical Fish Hobbyist Magazine has a very good forum. I would go there and get information directly about ponds. There are several folks there with ponds. I hope it goes well for you.

i live in a small city in oregon, and we have nice clean rain water for city water. But i filled up my pond and then stuck goldfish in the same day without anything and they are still all alive.
whered you get your uv filter? my water is greener than green
I know a UV filter will not work for you but I'm not sure what will. I'll see if I can get one of my experianced friends to look at this thread.
I'm one of Ken's friends from TFH. :)
Ken's right that you probably should add a water conditioner. Chlorine will evaporate naturally, but chloramines will not and are also toxic to fish.
Aquatic algae is usually caused by a combination of 2 things- too much nutrients in the water (from fish waste and/or other decaying organic matter) and too much light; in a pond, this means sunlight. Algae blooms are especially common in new ponds (or tanks) or in ponds going through some major change (like with the seasons). Since the pond isn't stocked yet, too much light is most likely the issue with yours.
Does this pond get shade at all during the day? Planting a small tree for shade (might want to avoid deciduous trees) and/or adding plants like water lillies and aquatic grasses can help shade the water and cut down on algae. Aquatic and bog plants are also good at outcompeting algae for any nutrients in the water. UV sterilizers can help if the wattage and overall filtration are adequate to the volume of water in the pond. If nothing else helps, you might consider building a decorative arbor over the pond to add some shade.
Plant the edge of your pond with marsh plants, like irises. Lots of them!
It will take some time to clear the water, but the goldfish won't mind. Patience is the word.
I'm surprised there don't appear to be any pond professionals here, I'm pretty darn close though. I built custom filtration systems, water falls and repaired and installed koi ponds as well as bred koi for years along side my boss who had been in the the business for decades. Yes, please add a water conditioner, other wise only a few chemicals present in the water will evaporate, and use the conditioner every time you add water unless you are on well water. Also, when using a biological filter it takes a little while before your pond will truly "filter" out things like chemicals (though even then the ability is minimal). One really simple tip I always give people is to degas your water as you top off or fill up your pond. All you have to do is make sure the water moves through the air before hitting the pond water (don't just lay the hose in the pond and turn it on, all those chemicals you worked to remove before will be right back in there and at higher levels) Try propping the hose up on a rock or a prick so it goes through the air like a fountain , if that makes sense :) A "UV filter" mentioned above only kills algae and some weak bacteria. It does no other filtering of any type, think of it as a clarifier instead. I always push for plants in a pond, they will help eat up some of the nitrates an ammonia(from fish waste and dead plant debris) in your pond as well as give your fish some places to hide from predators (you every pond eventually gets hit by predators, I suggest netting it if you don't want your fish to become dinner item, I don't know how many distraught customers I've dealt with that were so sure their pond would never be bothered only to come home and find a heron feasting on their $100 koi, also bear in mind raccoons, snakes, large frogs, turtles, birds and cats all love fresh easy to catch free fish) . What size is this pond (gallons and max. depth) and what sort of fish as you planning to add? Also, how big is your filter and what is is comprised of (please stay away from the so-called filter sold at home improvement stores, it's highway robbery)? And lastly, what part of the country are you in?
Keep in mind that these fish, be they Koi or some sort of fancy goldfish are all basically carp.This means they are super hardy,and I'm no expert but I believe a lot of these additives are overkill. I do believe that allowing your pond to become a balanced mini-ecosystem with lots of plants supplying oxygen will aid in the health and happiness of your fish and will help control algae too.This is all I've ever done,get the environment going first then add the fish and I've never lost any.I lose them in the winter when they're in a tub in the barn,but that's a differant story! The product i'm having a lot of success with for algae control is barley straw pellets.Completely natural and organic,wont harm fish or other aquatic life,inexpensive and simple to use.Check it out.
Hear! Hear! White29
I agree with additives being too much. I have tried it both ways. When I started out, I got all the additives the professionals recommended, but my water got cloudy or the PH was wrong. The fish did not die, but neither did they die when I went the nature's way route. It was a whole lot easier and I saved a lot of aggravation, time and needless to say, money!

Why do you think that the English speaking countries are "into reading" the most? All nations that have written language are into reading. Not to mention that a lot of people read in different languages.
Now - if you are asking what language people read the most if English is excluded, I suspect the answer will be Spanish, Chinese, Russian or French - simply based on history, population and what language people had learned.
And as for languages - in Russia, I suspect the most wanted are English, Spanish, French and so on -- based on number of books originally written in these languages. In USA - Spanish, French, Russian. Somewhere else - depends on what is now in the market.
Now - why do you ask? :)
elitetranslingo asks because he/she is into (quote from his/her profile) "Professional book and website translation services with high quality and low cost."
And I don't really understand the question(s). Most languages required? Nations more into reading? ??
Being "into reading" and needing translations do not go together: for example, as far as I know lots of Dutch people read English.
Yes, lots of Dutch people do, but not everyone. English books are faster (no translation time), cheaper (no translation costs) and there are a lot more books to choose from (no selection by the Dutch publisher). But if your English is not up to it, you're stuck with translated books.
>6 Ennas:
Most of the reading people with a small native language read in more than one language... There are exceptions but
PS: And English books are rarely cheaper than a local version -- they should be but at the end due to way too many reasons, it is cheaper to buy a translated version.
>7 AnnieMod:
Dutch books are here (NL) definitely NOT cheaper than English books. The average Dutch book costs €20-25 and the average English book €5-10. Yes. Really.
>8 Ennas:
Paperbacks? OK - I guess it is country based. In Bulgaria for the most part the Bulgarian ones are either cheaper or close in price.
In Germany it depends whether it's UK or US. UK books are more expensive than German ones (by a € or two). US books are cheaper.
Dutch books are usually very big paperbacks.
Hardcovers and/or mmpb are published (many) years later, when all the expensive books are sold out. "New edition for the fans" is what they say then. But all the real fans already bought the expensive book when it was new. >:-( I do NOT like Dutch publishers. (But I think you got that, didn't you? ;-) )

From autumn 2008 I
was a SICSA lecturer at the University
of Strathclyde, co-leading the
Mobiquitous Lab in Glasgow,

Bookkeeping: Gap Filled on DragonWave (DRWI) - Limit Order Hits
Could of not asked for a better outcome in DragonWave (DRWI). We mentioned late yesterday we were looking for the gap at $12.42 to fill; I placed a limit order for 2.25% exposure at $12.44. The stock fell to $12.37 this AM and is now bouncing back to $12.60.
Our exposure was increased from 1.75% to about 4% on that dip, I am wondering if I should of bought more...
Our cost basis has now increased from just a tad over $11 to $12.10 but since we began the position the stock has become cheaper based on the earnings beat, and raised guidance. Unlike the bevy of stocks that will be reporting in the next 5 weeks, we already have the earnings roulette out of the way, and now just have to worry about the greater market as a whole rather than individual stock. If the stock makes a new high, we'll probably add more exposure - I still find the stock cheap anywhere below $15.

Hi all,
I have been a bmw owner for many years, and have been working on cars for more years than I care to remember, and I work in IT and have done for a long time. However, I have not yet combined work and play and joined my car with my computer !
I have an e39 520iSE Auto, and it has developed a fault of being very sluggish, not pulling etc. I have got the codes from the Instrument Cluster, which show a couple of things, but not very specific. So I thought I would try hooking a pc to the car and see what that can tell me.
Looking around there seems to be 3 'ways' to go:
1) Peake tool, or all-in-one specific code reader/resetter - around £100+
2) INPA EDIABAS BMW Specific (or VAGCOM) cable - around £45+
3) Generic OBD-II Cable with BMW Adaptor and free/bought software - around £15+
I like the sound of number 3, mainly because the cable can be used with other (or maybe the same) software on other cars, for example I have a ford mondeo, my dad has a saab 93 etc.
Where I am finding a problem is the sheer number of people selling cables and software, all with slightly different descriptions, some using different protocols etc.
I have a copy of INPA, TIS, ETK, CarSoft, and will be looking to get ProScan, and maybe a couple of freeware ones.
Can anyone please post some active ebay links, or advice on the cable to go for, which will allow me to start in getting some info out of my cars computer?
Many Thanks

Just like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates, the craze of music mashups tells us you never know what you're going to get. Sometimes tracks you could never imagine sync up in perfect absurd harmony, and that's the case with a new mashup from an artist going by the name PomDeter. The mixmaster has decided to take the Nine Inch Nails classic 'Head Like a Hole' and put it together with the recent ubiquitous Carly Rae Jepsen hit 'Call Me Maybe.'
Production-wise, the track dubbed 'Call Me a Hole' works surprisingly well, with Trent Reznor's angst-ridden lyrics laying perfectly into the Jepsen music bed. But that's also where things get a little weird. You can feel the emotion of Reznor's vocal delivery perhaps even more in the song, but it's hard to get too pulled down into mire of his melancholy with strings so infectiously catchy.
CLICK HERE to hear the strangely melodic mashup.

Although the holidays are intended to be a happy time full of joyful celebration, the events can trigger sadness and anxiety for many.
Farlie Chastain, LCSW at Parkridge Valley, offers some tips on how to not stress during the holiday season and make the holiday season more enjoyable.
"There are many reasons that people can be stressed during the holidays," Chastain said in a prepared statement. "Many individuals focus intensely on creating a 'perfect' holiday celebration for their loved ones and put so much pressure on themselves that they can no longer enjoy many of the festivities they have planned. For others, trying to add holiday activities into already-packed schedules can be extremely stressful."
Other problems, said Chastain, are overeating, overspending, drinking too much or being unable to spend time with all of the family and friends that you need to see.
Chastain said that December can be more enjoyable if you:
—Be realistic: Make sure you are setting reasonable goals for yourself, and don't take on too much. "Don't be afraid to say no; it's better than over-committing and feeling overwhelmed later as a result," Chastain said.
—Budget: Create a budget for gifts and other holiday expenses, and stick to it as much as possible.
—Don't wait for the New Year: Start and maintain healthy habits now. "Exercise and adequate rest will improve the holiday experience," Chastain said.
—Schedule downtime: Take some time for yourself when needed, and recruit family or friends to assist with the planning and execution of holiday festivities.
—Be flexible with traditions if necessary: "Don't be afraid to adapt the traditional holiday events and celebrations; make something new that works for you," Chastain said.
—Get involved: Volunteer or participate in a community event or religious organization if you feel lonely or isolated. "Helping others can go a long way toward taking your mind off your own troubles," she said
—Cry if you want to: "Give yourself permission to feel sadness and grief; these are normal emotions that don't go away just because of the holiday season," Chastain said.
—Seek help if you need it: "If you have persistent anxiety, irritability, trouble sleeping or if you have low moods that last for several days, seek professional help," Chastain said.

Author: Joseph Ellis
Ellis is not as good a writer as McCullough, but he is very interesting. I put these two books together, because they are stylistic siblings. In each, he chooses particular instances from the Revolutionary period and examines them separately. He does not claim that the stories form a coherent message, but rather that he is trying to paint a sort of tapestry of events that led to the history that followed. In some of the more interesting chapters, he examines how the revolutionary leaders could not grapple with slavery and Indian rights. He also examines how some of the leading lights of the revolution shaped the country. One of my favorite parts in was the section devoted to the duel between Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton. Not only does he discuss the actual duel, but the political forces that drove Hamilton to accept such a crazy proposition.

iPhone share slips below Android, but is all as it seems? Microsoft slips behind; Nokia's death-march continues.By Richi Jennings. February 2, 2011.
Google's Android market share was 32.9% in Q4 of 2010, passing the iPhone at 30.6%. Microsoft actually sold fewer units than last year. Nokia was relegated to the "others" category. In IT Blogwatch, bloggers are fascinated by Android's 615% annual growth.
Your humble blogwatcher curated these bloggy bits for your entertainment. Not to mention the Worst Ice Skater Ever?..
Jacqui Cheng runs the numbers:
33.3 million Android devices shipped worldwide during the fourth quarter 2010 ... leaving Nokia, Apple and RIM in the dust. ... Canalys tracked a total of 101.2 million smartphone shipments during the quarter ... an 89 percent growth year-on-year.
...All platforms tracked by Canalys saw growth ... except for Microsoft. ... Apple came in third with a market share number of 16 percent ... RIM came in fourth place with a market share of 14.4 percent ... Microsoft's share dropped from 7.2 percent to 3.1 percent.
Ben Woods quotes a quotable quote:
Figures show that over the course of the 2010 global smartphone shipments increased by nearly 80 percent in comparison with 2009. ... "The speed with which the market has recovered has required real commitment and innovation from vendors and they have risen to the challenge," Canalys vice president and principal analyst Chris Jones said.
...However, Jones says that the year ahead will bring a number of changes and that vendors cannot afford to be complacent.
Rory Cellan-Jones says it "paints an amazing story":
Nokia, after all, invented the whole idea of a phone as a mini-computer more than a decade ago, with its fabulously expensive Communicator. ... So a grim story for Nokia, which ... has seen its market dominance evaporate in just a couple of years. ... There will again be speculation that Symbian is for the chop, and Nokia could do the unthinkable - and switch to Android.
Preston Gralla continues his Microsoft-bothering:
More bad news for Windows Phone 7 sales.
...In Windows Phone 7's defense, it wasn't available for the entire quarter. ... Still, 2 percent market share is a dismal showing.
And Jonny Evans finds the numbers don't conform to his world-view:
Certainly, I agree Android has developed remarkable marketshare very fast. It has given many handset makers a chance to remain relevant a little while longer. ... [But] marketshare is meaningless without sustainability.
...Handset vendors ... at least they have something to sell. Without Android, they'd already be finished in the mobile handset space. ... Meanwhile in Apple valley, happy users equate to more future iPhone sales. ... Android is reality distortion.
But Daniel Eran Dilger gets suspicious:
The report's numbers included a footnote saying the "Google numbers" "relate to Android, as well as the OMS and Tapas platform variants." ... OMS is the basis of China Mobile's OPhone platform, which was originally based on Android software but adapted. ... Tapas OS, is also derived from Android but similarly does nothing to benefit Google.
...Describing the Chinese OMS as a "variant" of Google's Android platform is a troublesome stretch ... [it's] not only "not Google," it's also incompatible with Android apps, and apparently more compatible with Windows Mobile. ... Calling Tapas a version of Android is like calling Baidu a version of Google or Youku a version of YouTube. Like OMS, Tapas is an Android competitor.
Meanwhile, Chinmoy Kanjilal smells one of Katie's talking points:
Every time someone releases stats on Android, Apple is owned and fires back with some excuse. ... This time, when Android has swept past Nokia and amounts for as many Apple and Blackberry phones, Apple claims that the figures includes Chinese variants of Android.
...Apple just cannot stand the Android growth and wants to take every chance to speak against it.
And Finally...

Having led by five strokes going into Sunday's final round, Chapman was comfortable even though he shot his worst score of the week with a one-over 72 that included three bogeys in his last five holes.
It was Chapman's first win on the Champions Tour.
John Cook came second at 11 under after posting a 69, while Hale Irwin's 68 put him a stroke back in third.
A tournament record of 62 for Kenny Perry was only enough for him to finish ninth, five shots off the lead.
