My experience as a store owner has taught me some very valuable lessons. I hope that this list will help other young entrepreneurs from U.Va. avoid some of the mistakes I made and become successful as business owners.
Help is available
My boutique lets me do what I love doing most: buying and merchandising. But that's not all I do. My list of to-do's includes accounting, marketing, event planning, selling, and even cleaning the store. I don't have all the skills to run my business but one thing that prepares me for all of it is asking questions. I was always good with numbers and the accounting courses that I took in college definitely came in handy, but it's wise to consult a certified accountant to help you for the first couple of months and to get help with taxes. I talked to other store owners about what marketing/advertising works for them and then I tried to use similar ideas to grow my business. I received help from some of my friends in law school to better understand contracts I needed to sign. No matter what your questions are, just pick up the phone or write an email. Nine times out of ten, the person will help you or direct you to someone who might be able to help.
Social Media is a must
Having an online presence is important but more than that you have to market it or your website will never be noticed. I have a Facebook Page, Instagram account and manage Yelp pages. I plan to start a Twitter and Pinterest accounts too. I've sold items right off my Instagram page. Social Media expands your market 10x. It takes time to establish a following but it pays off.
Spread the knowledge
I started carrying a beauty line in my store. It sat on the shelves for a month without anyone even noticing it. I automatically thought it was a bad buying decision. Till one day a person looking at the line asked me a question, "What is this hand cream made of?" As soon as I told her it was made of natural shea butter and was handmade in USA, she was sold and bought three different hand creams. Since then, even if a person looks at the line, I make sure to mention what's so special about it. Train your sales associates to know your products inside out so they are able to market it.
Be ready to say NO
At first I was desperate to get my name out and was donating items for every cause, and it felt like I was participating in every local event. After the first couple of months, I didn't see much return on my investment, so I decided I would have to be very selective about where I invested my marketing dollars. It's hard to say "No" at times but that's when you have to think about what makes the most sense for your business.
Negotiate everything
From vendors to landlord, negotiate everything. Don't take the first price that is quoted to you. More than often, there is wiggle room to get the price to be lower or get discounts for services. I was able to get my Point of Sale system at a discount for a year if I paid for the year upfront rather than per month. I've negotiated price of products because the vendor wasn't able to offer a full size run.

Being an atheistic, agnostic evolutionist I've always been intrigued with explanations about how religions were created. Two individuals who probably define my position on religiosity best would be David Attenborough and Arthur C Clarke.
When asked whether his observations of the natural world had given him faith in a creator, Attenborough generally responds by making making reference to the Loa loa parasitic worm in terms of:
"When Creationists talk about God creating every individual species as a separate act, they always instance hummingbirds, or orchids, sunflowers and beautiful things. But I tend to think instead of a parasitic worm that is boring through the eye of a boy sitting on the bank of a river in West Africa, [a worm] that's going to make him blind. And [I ask them], 'Are you telling me that the God you believe in, who you also say is an all-merciful God, who cares for each one of us individually, are you saying that God created this worm that can live in no other way than in an innocent child's eyeball? Because that doesn't seem to me to coincide with a God who's full of mercy'.
Attenborough is of the view that the evidence all over the planet clearly shows evolution to be the best way to explain the diversity of life. Asked if he at any time had any religious faith. He replied, "No". He has also said "It never really occurred to me to believe in God".
Arthur C. Clarke's view of religion ("The City and the Stars." 1968. Pub. Victor Gollancz Ltd.) goes like this:
"While still a young man, he had been forced to leave his native world, and its memory had haunted him all his life. His expulsion he blamed on vindictive enemies, but the fact was that he suffered from an incurable malady which, it seemed, attacked only homo sapiens among all the intelligent races of the universe. That disease was religious mania.
Throughout the earlier part of its history, the human race had brought forth an endless succession of prophets, seers, messiahs, and evangelists who convinced themselves and their followers that to them alone were the secrets of the universe revealed. Some of them succeeded in establishing religions which survived for many generations and influenced billions of men; others were forgotten even before their deaths.
The rise of science, which with monotonous regularity refuted the cosmologies of the prophets and produced miracles which they could never match, eventually destroyed all these faiths. It did not destroy the awe, nor the reverence and humility, which all intelligent beings felt as they contemplated the stupendous universe in which they found themselves, What it did weaken, and finally obliterate, were the countless religions each of which claimed with unbelievable arrogance, that it was the sole repository of the truth and that its millions of rivals and predecessors were all mistaken.
Yet though they never possessed any real power, once humanity had reached a very elementary level of civilisation, all down the ages isolated cults had continued to appear, and however fantastic their creeds they had always managed to attract some disciples. They thrived with particular strength during the periods of confusion and disorder, and it was not surprising that the Transition Centuries had seen a great outburst of irrationality. When the reality was depressing, men tried to console themselves with myths."
It would now seem, at least in the latter case, that there is some argument for the viewpoint expressed by Arthur C Clark in that religions are, in reality, just constructs of the mind – an incurable malady.
In New Scientist recently (8 September, 2012 pp 10) a hypothesis was offered proposing that Tutankhamun's untimely death, as well as those of some of his (4) genetically related pharoahs, was related to a genetic disorder, namely a heritable form of temporal lobe epilepsy. This form of epilepsy, with seizures beginning in the temporal lobe, is known to induce hallucinations and religious visions, particularly after exposure to sunlight. There's evidence of visionary experiences by Thutmosis IV and Akhenaten, the Pharoah that moved Egypt from polytheistic worship to the monotheistic worship of the sun as the supreme god.
While there is a view that the hypothesis is speculative, and probably almost impossible to validate it is of more interest what is said by the various commentators with regard to the mind and religion. I leave you with these little snippets:
"People with temporal lobe epilepsy who are exposed to sunlight get the same sort of stimulation to the mind and religious zeal". Hutan Ashrafian, surgeon at the Imperial College of London and the proposer of the hypothesis.
Orrin Devinsky, neurologist at the New York University Langone Medical Centre. "The exact timing of Akhenaten's religious conviction is not so clearly documented, and most cases of sudden religious conversion are not due to epilepsy. Monotheism could be related to epilepsy, or bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia, or drug intoxication from a fungus . . . . ."
So perhaps, some 44 years ago, Arthur C Clarke hit the nail right on the head in his succinct and accurate view of religiosity, that homo sapiens has an incurable malady called religious mania. Evidence that religions are just constructs of the mind – and damaged one's at that – seems to be growing!. And that really is food for thought . . . . . . . .!

COPELAND council has launched a new pest control service.
A new commercial service is being offered to residents of Copeland that provides advice and chargeable treatments for cockroaches, bed bugs and fleas, which are all considered a public health risk.
The service will also see prevention advice and rat treatment provided, initially free of charge, to domestic properties
The Council's Environmental Health team has been dealing with complaints of rats for several years now and the introduction of this service means that the team can now tackle complaints through to the prevention and treatment stage.
A new webpage has also been created to offer advice on bedbugs, fleas, rats, mice and wasps.
The service is also being rolled out to the borough's businesses, although the treatment of rats will be chargeable to commercial premises.
Councillor Allan Holliday, Portfolio Holder for Environmental Health, said: "It's fantastic to be able to offer this new service.
"We receive pest complaints week on week and we will now be able to offer residents and businesses treatment options as well as advice.
"This is a great move forward for the service and offers the full package to any of our residents who may experience any issues with pests in their homes.
"The borough's businesses can also benefit from the new service; our team can offer advice and prevention techniques as well as treatment options.
"It's great to see this Council taking another step in ensuring the borough is kept safe and tidy for all our residents and visitors."
For more information about the new service and to report a pest control issue please go to www.copeland.gov.uk/content/pest-control-services, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 01946 598361.

Having been a longtime Fender player (with too many Strats and Teles to recall), I started getting into G&L guitars lately, and wow, they are just excellent axes. Beautiful sounds, nice finish and quality, great feel, and kind of a mystery to many, especially considering that the used USA G&L prices are always a bit cheaper than the USA-made Fender used Strats and Teles. Bought a couple G&L USA basses, too. Fantastic stuff. Anyone else here playing G&L?

While Attorney General Jeff Sessions was in Denver on June 8 to talk to the Western Conservative Summit, his boss, president Donald Trump, was back in Washington, D.C., saying he'd "probably" support the legislation proposed by senators Cory Gardner and Elizabeth Warren that which would protect states that have legalized marijuana, whether recreational or medical.
Readers were quick to weigh in on the bill, Trump's comment....and Sessions's imagined response.
Says Ben:
The rare but refreshing occasion when us politicians will actually stand for truth and justice! Bravo to Warren and Gardner for moving this forward! The madness is over! Legalize, regulate and tax recreational cannabis!
Responds Martin:
Why not also put forth a bill decriminalizing it for all states? I get it - incremental, right? But just start chipping away at it through both angles.
Christopher points out:
Trump was never against weed.
Heath replies:
Trump is never for or against anything. He's an opportunist. If it can make him money he likes it, and things that can make him money can change from day to day.
Trump is only loyal to money, and specifically his money. If he can see a profit in cannabis, he'll back it.
Concludes Diego:
Sessions probably doing backflips.

"Cory Gardner and Elizabeth Warren on Their Marijuana Bill Team Up"
At the Western Conservative Summit on June 8, the word "marijuana" didn't pass Sessions's lips, though he did advocate for a crackdown on drugs.
But then, Senator Cory Gardner, who spoke at the summit a few hours earlier, on June 7 had introduced a new proposal — with Senator Elizabeth Warren! — that would allow states to determine their pot policies without federal interference. And earlier that morning, Trump had said that he would probably support that bill.
Sessions had plenty more to say, though, hitting on subjects ranging from immigration to Masterpiece Cakeshop. "Here's my message," Sessions concluded. "We're going to keep up the pace. ... Are you tired of it yet?"

Keyholding and alarm response are both at the very heart of what we do. We are Keyholding specialists. Our Team make the whole Keyholding process simple and uncomplicated. A risk and stress free alternative to dealing with activations yourself.
Your first line of defence against potential threats to your premises, property and staff
With more than thirty years experience in the security industry, we have the knowledge and expertise to deal with all types of alarm systems and emergency incidents. Furthermore, we look after many different types of property – not just businesses and domestic properties. Retail property, schools, medical centres and construction sites to name just a few.
In addition to our core Keyholding service, we also offer these complementary security services.
Mobile patrols
Locks and unlocks
Third party access visits for tradesmen and contractors
House checks
Empty property checks
Lone worker monitoring and welfare checks
Manned guarding
When the worst thing happened and our premises was burgled, City Keyholding took care of everything for us. They liaised with the police, arranged boarding up and stayed on site until everything was secure. I had a full report in my inbox by 9am the next morning. They even sent me over photos. This proved invaluable when I was processing the insurance claim.
When our alarm went offline during the day, City Keyholding contacted us to let us know. I've never known a keyholding company be this pro-active. As a result of their call we were able to contact our alarm company and get the problem sorted before close of business – it's these small things that make City Keyholding stand out from other Keyholding companies.
I'm based in Bristol and have 3 properties in London. City Keyholding hold the keys for all 3 properties. When I need to give access to tradesmen, City Keyholding pop along and unlock for me. They then come back and lock-up when the tradesmen are finished. This saves me a massive 6 hour round trip. Their callout fee is worth every penny.
I manage a property that's undergoing a massive refurb. There are loads of building materials left on-site. City Keyholding patrol the property at random times every night. It's proved such a good deterrent from unwanted activity and gives me peace of mind that both the building and my property are secure.

GET READY: The most important economic datapoint in the world comes out at 8:30 AM ET today.
That is, of course, the Non-Farm Payrolls report AKA The Jobs Report.
Analysts currently expect 125K net new jobs created in November, which would be up from the 80K created last month. On the private sector side, expect 141K new jobs.
Mostly labor data has been pretty good lately.
Earlier this week, ADP reported that there were 206K new private sector jobs created in November.
ADP does in fact have decent predictive powers.
Also initial weekly jobless claims have been improving pretty steadily, with the exception of this week, which saw a bump back over 400K.
In a note out today, Goldman suggests that people might, in their minds, be expecting more than the 125K, due to the ADP, better than expected data for much of the past couple months, and perhaps even the expectation that seasonality will boost the data. However, they note that not all measures have been great, including online job ads, which have been mediocre.
Either way, we'll have all the data and analysis LIVE at 8:30 AM ET, when it comes out.

Hawaii property exchange seeks to aid Honolulu rail project
HONOLULU (AP) — Hawaii land officials have started to arrange a property exchange to aid construction of a multibillion-dollar rail transit line, but Native Hawaiians have raised concerns about the trade.
The state Department of Hawaiian Home Lands intends to give the city of Honolulu a residential land lot in Waipahu worth more than $21 million in exchange for agricultural land the city owns in Kapolei worth less than $5 million.
The planned trade shortchanges a land trust they have with the department, some Native Hawaiian beneficiaries said.
"When you look at the numbers, it just doesn't make sense," said Blossom Feiteira. "Why are they giving our trust lands away?"
The Hawaiian Homes Commission, which oversees the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands, approved the deal in 2006. However, the transaction has not been completed because appraisals have not been done and Department of the Interior approval is needed.
"The new appraisal report will determine the fair value on these properties for the land exchange," Hawaii Home Lands spokesman Cedric Duarte said. "DOI requires equal value exchange, not just in terms of dollars."
When asked about the value fairness of the exchange, Duarte said that those values are based on different uses from residential to agricultural.
This deal is another example of government abuse of the trust, said Robin Danner, another beneficiary and Sovereign Council of Hawaiian Homestead Associations chair.
"How is giving our trust lands to rail — (land) that is valued five times more than the county lands they want to give us — helpful to us?" he said.
The city has a licensing agreement to use the Waipahu parcel, officials said. And has already constructed a rail maintenance and storage facility on the department land.

15 minutes for the Memocam
I assume most of you are artists. And you probably all have moments of feeling like you're working in obscurity, with no notice, and no appreciation from other people (aside from your mother, of course). I feel that frequently. Well, today, I feel noticed. First, a week ago, Marc Snyder of Fiji Island Mermaid Press commented on the early stage of my brass camera. (Marc has a blog and web site. I love his Artist's book of the month club.) Then I got an email from Tinkergirl, saying she had linked to my blog. She is into the "lighter side of steampunk" at Brass Goggles. And here's my Memocam on Make magazine's web site! I am so pleased. Is it too uncool to say I'm delighted? I have had a ton of views on my "brass pinhole cameras" flickr set. And some very nice emails from a bunch of people. Including some fascinating links to check out. Is this my 15 minutes of fame? I am loving it.

…in posting your pages on Ed's blog? I'm thinking it over: creating a separate page here for community papers to submit pages they really like. Yes, there are other sites in the internet where editors can post pages but here's the difference: this is for community newspapers only.
Post your pages…and help me to define "community newspapers." OK…that second part could take a while.

: : : : : : : : : : : : : Admittedly I was a Pasadena detractor but they've proven me wrong. They're peaking at the right time and playing really well. Still think Orangewood is a tough game but would not be surprised if Pasadena pulls off the win. Pasadena's success along with Burroughs's success in CIF is proven that the Pacific League is a quality league. Yeah it has couple of really bad teams but so does every league. As Burroughs parent I it's hard to root for Pasadena but I totally respect their game and hope they continue to play well.
: : : : : : : : : : : : Yes, Burroughs and Pasadena can beat Mater Dei, Windward or any of the Open teams.
: : : : : : : : : : Nope Burroughs is right where they belong in 2A. They could never compete with Open Division teams and not a single Burroughs parent ever claimed Burroughs belongs in top division ever. On the other hand crazy Pasadena parents have boasted about their 2AA team being loaded with D1 transfer players and could competed with Mater Dei, Windward and Sierra Canyon.
: : : : : : : : : : : Slow down there Burroughs parent, don't try to put your team in the same level as Pasadena. The only similar about the 2 is that they share the same league. That's it, Burroughs don't have the D1 talents as
: : : : : : : : : : You're right my bad. Pasadena is the greatest team ever assembled! What was I thinking. Burroughs collection of JV and barely varsity players beat that team with 3 D1 transfers once and had the second game within 5 points with 3 minutes left in the 4th. Burroughs is definitely not in the same class Pasadena. Good luck anyway. Keep it classy Pasadena parents as always.
: : : : : : : : : Please, Pasadena were missing key players in those games. Burroughs play them at full force and good night, no chance. they're not in the same level, same league maybe that's it.
: : : : : : : : I heard Pasadena AD was paying kids/parents...
: : : : : : : This is 2aa badketball. Talking about open and not even d1? Ridiculous. Its like winning rec league and claiming ucla watching us. Congrats on winning in small bubble. Two games. Wow. Win 2aa then go to d1 state and make run there and we all will acknowledge Passdena better thsn thought. Until then... shhh.
: : : : : : :: Yeah, kind of silly to brag about a team being Open Div. quality, when they haven't beaten or even played an Open Div. team. Pasadena beat a higher seeded Millikan by 5 pts . . . LB Poly, an actual Open Div. team, beat Millikan by 41pts. Orangewood Academy gets respect because they played several Open quality teams and beat two of them - Lynwood and Etiwanda. But Orangewood didn't qualify to be an Open team. The Open teams (especially the high seeds) are playing in a different universe. Pasadena and their fans just need to be happy they're in a lower division, and have a chance to win a few playoff games.
: : : : : Few playoff games? You haven't been paying attention!!! Pasadena is in the wrong division since they are an Open team. Everyone's ducking them.
: : : : : Few games? We are State bound after we capture CIF, see you in Sacramento.
: : : : LMAO!! You mean Pasadena was ducking competition all season. Who did Pasadena lose to in one of their non-league games oh that's right Village Christian. Pasadena is a good school and team. But you all will never be any good. Your league is soft and just like Pasadena benefits from being in the lower divisions. If Pasadena was in Division 1 it would have been a first round loss. But hey the sun shines on a dog's ass every once in a while so enjoy it while you can. A win tomorrow and Pasadena qualifies for the state playoffs. So don't choke!!! Eventually the luck Pasadena has been having in the playoffs will run out and then it will be back to being a nobody.
: : : : The sarcasm is pretty thick in this thread. But here is the deal, Pasadena is a loaded team for the division. Easily can play with most teams in the 1A division and could probably give one or two of the open teams a run on a really good night. But the fact is that they have a novice, inexperienced coach, the team can be very undisciplined at times, and that is what keeps them from any discussion of "open" division and why they aren't a lock to even win 2AA. Any talented team with a little height and a good coach in 2AA can beat them. Marlborough and Orangewood Academy should both handle them even though Pasadena may have the edge in talent. Saugus is well coached and big enough to handle their size, and even a team like Flintridge Prep would give them a real run. They may not get past North in the quarters. That still does not take away from the fact that Pasadena's starting five matches up with almost any starting five in the Southern Section outside of about 8 teams. We will see what happens this week.
: :
: : They are the real deal. That starting 5 should all be D1 recruits. All these haters just can't accept that a public school is dominating. Recognize and respect the game.
: You obviously haven't seen the team play. They have no D-1 caliber players. what's with you stupid people out there. They have most of their team back next year. They may be able to put together a good D1 team next year. They do not have the talent to win it this year. Sorry.

Technology has taken an uprising since the late 20th century to our world today. Everyone essentially owns some sort of technological device from cellphones to computers. Companies like Microsoft, Xerox and Canon have made our lives simpler and possibly much easier, but there was another company waiting to override the norm and push an industry giant to its limits. Apple Incorporated followed an unconventional path to its recent success in the computer industry, despite being consistently dominated by Microsoft.
Apple Inc. s a multinational corporation headquartered in Cupertino, California that designs, develops, and sells consumer electronics, computer software, personal computers and portable digital music players, and mobile communications devices and sell a variety of related software, services, peripherals, and networking solutions. Its best-known hardware products are the Mac line of computers, the iPod, the iPhone, and the iPad. Its software includes the OS X and iOS operating systems, the iTunes, the Safari web browser, and the iLife and iWork creativity and production suites.
The company was founded on April 1, 1976, and incorporated as Apple Computer, Inc. on January 3, 1977. The word "Computer" was removed from its name on January 9, 2007, reflecting its shifted focus towards consumer electronics after the introduction of the iPhone. Apple is the world's second-largest information technology company by revenue after Samsung Electronics and the world's third-largest mobile phone maker after Samsung and Nokia. Fortune magazine named Apple the most admired company in the United States in 2008, and in the world from 2008 to 2012.
However, the company has received criticism for its contractors' labor practices, and for Apple's own environmental and business practices. As of November 2012, Apple maintains 394 retail stores in fourteen countries as well as the online Apple Store and iTunes Store. It is the second-largest publicly traded corporation in the world by market capitalization, with an estimated value of US$ 414 billion as of January 2013. As of September 29, 2012; the company had 72,800 permanent full-time employees and 3,300 temporary full-time employees worldwide.
Its worldwide annual revenue in 2012 totaled $156 billion. In May 2013, Apple had made it to the top ten of the Fortune 500 list of companies for the first time, taking the 6 position, 11 places up from the previous year Innovative Products Currently, Apple's iPhone is the yearning of the modern man. Top-notch product design, an intuitive user-interface as well as fancy multimedia internet based services may contribute to its unique market position. Therefore, if not yet accomplished, many software developers are considering getting into the iPhone platform ASAP, serving the market Industry Leaders For the past three years Apple has been known by fortune as the world's most admired company. They are known for elegant product design, innovation, customer loyalty, brand-building marketing, and secrecy. Apple Inc. is considered to be as the industry leaders in innovation, design, versatility and customer satisfaction. The products that they introduce every single year are the best in the challenge. The contenders may have products that are highly dreamed on by them but at a days end more people tend to shine into Apple's products.
The vision that Apple has to make their wonderful products is carried by none. Their products like the iPhone changed the entire mobile industry. iPhone was innovative that many people as well as the rival companies such as Nokia, Samsung and many other companies were mesmerized by the innovation and technological leap the Apple had achieved by introducing this product. Perks For the past three years Apple has been known by fortune as the world's most admired company. They are known for elegant product design, innovation, customer loyalty, brand-building marketing, and secrecy.
The financial statement projected that the company will continue to grow because of their product design to meet the consumer needs. The company has seen an increase in demand of products and service. Based on the company historical and projected future earnings and cash flow growth rates, any person who is looking for a smart short to medium term investment, Apple stock would be the right decision. Its steady growth in earnings and dividends can be viewed as acquiring moderate to risky equity. On December 29, 1994, Apple inventory increased to $1 billion.
That was the inventory turnover for Apple. Their total revenue rose from $9. 8 billion in 1996 to above 19. 3 billion in 2006, which is a substantial increase of 96. 43% (Shlinds, 2007. ) On July 19, 2011 Apple, announced financial results for its fiscal 2011 third quarter ended June 25, 2011. The company earned quarterly revenue of $28. 57 billion and earned a quarterly net profit of $7. 31 billion. Those billions of dollars in sales had much to do with the sales of the Macs, iPhone, and iPad. The company sold 3. 95 million Macs during the quarter, a 14% unit increase over the year-ago quarter.
Apple sold 20. 34 million iPhones in the quarter, representing 142% unit growth over the year-ago quarter. They sold 9. 25 million iPads during the quarter, a 183% unit increase over the year-ago quarter. Apple sold 7. 54 million iPod, a 20% unit decline for the year-ago quarter (www. apple. com. ) Macs, iPhone, and iPad sold in numbers greater than the company expect, but the sales from the iPod decreased. Even though the iPod sales dropped, it has dominated the market digital media player and managed to maintain in the United States.
This is Apple best quarter ever with revenue up 82% and profits up 125%. Their cash flow has increased 131% year-over-year, with operations of $11. 1 billion. In December 2010, the cost of goods sold of $16. 4 billion was 61. 5% of revenue. The income statement continued to grow at rates rarely seen at a large company. The company continues to deliver to the marketplace and stimulate customer demand for new programs, products, and technological innovations. The company dominant leadership in virtually every product category it competes is an obvious proof of innovation and well-executed market.
However, despite its market leadership, Apple management has traditionally under-promised, yet over-delivered on earnings quarter after quarter. This has been the primary means for the stock's sudden ascent in recent years. Companies that grow faster than the operating cash-flow it generates are usual suspects when it comes to balance sheet maneuvering. Liquidity obviously is not a problem for Apple, but this forces the analysts following the company to scramble and keep raising their targets each time Apple consensus.
Cash flow quality and earnings structure better reflect the correlation between stock price and the financial statement. Apple sales growth has been inclining, while Resource and Development spending (excluding previously capitalized software and technology acquired in acquisitions) as a percentage of sales has been declining. Any stock has the potential to be successful, but under-utilized assets or small allocations to develop innovative products which drive future profits would not be helpful on returns on assets/investments. Apple has no competition.
Apple creates computers, phones, tablets, music players, operating systems, television set-top boxes, lifestyle and productivity software, professional media software, and wireless routers. They also sell movies and music, and they have an application store that so far has not been challenged. Nokia, Samsung, Sony might compete with Apple hardware, but they depend on Microsoft operating system. Microsoft makes operating system for computers and phones, and they produce office and other software similar to Apple's, but they lack in hardware. Google with the Android, is not even a single operating system.
It is a multitude of operating system versions on multiple devices. If Apple wants to change something on a device, either hardware or operating system, it can just do so. If Nokia, Samsung, or Sony wants to change their operating system, they would have to recieve confirmation from Microsoft. If Microsoft wants to advance their technology, they need buy-in from hardware makers. They make their profits from business-to-business, which mainly consists of selling licenses to its operating system to computer manufacturers and office suites for enterprises.
That is not to say that they do not sell to consumers. They have consumer only product lines as the Xbox gaming console, and of course, home user also buy Windows and Office. On the other hand, Apple is primarily a consumer company, and makes most of its profit selling hardware products. This makes the target of Apple's site much clearer for marketing, selling, and providing support for its products to consumers. The rest of the technology can only play catch up. A quote from Wayne Gretzky who said, "Good hockey players play where the puck is. Great hockey players skate to where the puck is going to be. Most of the tech industry is struggling to get where the puck was, (Raymond Meyers, 2011. ) In the previous paragraph I mention Apple did not have any competition, but if I had to choose two it would be Microsoft and Google. Apple leads Microsoft and Google in the S&P 500 in this illustration: Apple $401. 82 -$10. 32 (-2. 50%) Google $520. 66 -$18. 54(-3. 44%) Microsoft $25. 06 -$0. 93(-3. 50%) Microsoft is steady declining. Microsoft launched windows Vista; Windows users vigorously had rejected that upgrade. Fewer than 10% of windows users had switched and nearly 5% of windows PCs in use were running windows versions older than XP.
Mobile device are steady increasing, which Apple has complete control over. Mobile operating systems account for nearly 3% of all Internet. The percentage of Internet usage on mobile devices has been doubling every eight months. The many tasks that PC handled are taking over by mobile devices. Microsoft was ahead almost as long as people were using PC, but technology has advanced into mobile devices. May 26, 2010 illustrated from mobile devices, Microsoft and Apple were about even at a Market cap of $223 billion, but Apple had increased rapidly to $306 billion, while Microsoft decreases to $212 billion.
Apple site is generally more user friendly than Microsoft, and offers a much better experience to consumers who use it to check out the latest Apple products. Apple website is much smaller in scale than Microsoft's site. Apple uses many of white space and subheadings to make everything more readable, yet they keep their website simple by not overusing too many different text. Microsoft hosts many different sites under the Microsoft. com brand, creating a whole ecosystem of sub-sites. Microsoft biggest problem is consistency. There is no global navigation, and there are not many visual clues that tell the user that this is a Microsoft site.
Unlike Apple, where the whole site shares one unique visual that mirrors that of their hardware and software, thus creating a powerful brand. Google Android has become the closest smartphone that can stand up to the iPhone dominance. In this graph is shows the sale between smartphones: | Apple has more than three hundred retail stores in ten countries, in addition to an online store that offers its products to the customers across the globe (Apple Inc, 2011). This global network allows the company to develop and launch the products in it markets of America, Asia, and Europe.
The company is officially listed as number one company that provides wide range of technology related products in the world after surpassing Microsoft. The company has more than 45,000 employees working on full-time basis and around 3,000 employees worldwide. It was noted that the company had earned the annual sales of around $67 billion US dollars from its worldwide operations (Apple Inc, 2010). The company is listed as one of the most admired companies in the United States and in the World for four consecutive years (Fisher, 2008 Colvin, 2009 Fortune, 2010).
Apple products like Mac, iPhone, iPad, and iPod are manufactured in the United States, but the company is outsourcing the production of some of its product parts to the various international and national supply chain partners. For example, iPod are outsourced to its subcontractor in Hong Kong from where it is sent to the outsourced production plant of the company (Linden et al, 2007). The company saves money by outsourcing, but on the other hand, it increases the downsizing and unemployment rate in the United States.
Price, place, promotion strategies, product performance, the quality, and reliability of the product, innovative designs as well as the availability of up-to-date software services are factors that can impact the business and profitability of Apple. The focus on manager at this point is the expansion of its smartphones and other media and communication devices. The competitors of Apple have numerous of resources that they can offer the business and consumer products and services similar to Apple's products at a low price range. Decrease the price on Apple products by creating resources from other companies will attract more customers.

Sterling Sinclair Photographs Fairies – Faeries and a Forest Guardian on His Afternoon walk. October 9, 2017
I was sitting on the sofa yesterday around suppertime when I suddenly had the urge to take photos out in the field and forest.
These three photos were taken by me without looking through the view finder of my Nikon. I heard little high pitched voices say, "over here!" So I turned and shot. I was thrilled to see what was in these photos when I processed them this afternoon.
Some of you will see them and some of you will not.
As for me, this is a big confirmation that I am never alone.
I have been drumming for a year and within this week I have:
grieved the death of the forest goddess tree,
sung with my animal spirit guides,
received etheric mist blessings
received visions of my ancestors,
an ancestral anointing and mission instruction
stirred and calmed the wind
and to top it off
I got photos of orbs, forest sprites, faerie people, and a forest guardian spirit looking directly at me.
What a magical week it has been for me.
With these photos, I hope that those who are ready to see them will find and be blessed with eternal magic, awe, and restored hope.
This world is worth saving, just as the ancient ones are trying to save us too.
May these photos brighten your day.
Love, S
Oracle Sterling Sinclair Psychic Auracature Art: Germanwings A320 4U 9525 Crash – Do Co-pilot Andreas Lubitz and Pilot Patrick Sonderheimer Exist? Where are the photos? Where is the proof?
Oracle Sterling Sinclair Psychic Auracature Art:
Germanwings A320 4U 9525 Crash
Do Co-pilot Andreas Lubitz and Pilot Patrick Sonderheimer Exist?
Where are the photos?
Where is the proof?
March 29, 2015
I must be missing something or cannot search the internet or media well enough OR this is like a War of the Worlds episode and nothing is real.
What the Hell is going on?
Who really is Andreas Lubitz and what proof is there that he was flying the plane when it went down? Is he even a pilot? If so, where is the proof? Just because news reports say so does not make it true. Where are the photos of him becoming a pilot? The story is that it was his life-long dream.
Who is this girlfriend with no pictures on the web without being blurred out? Who is she? This was a young couple allegedly about to be married and now I read that she was a school teacher. Well, where are the selfies, LinkedIn profiles, and pictures of being at the bar together or sitting in the class with students? Where is there any photo of the two of them together that illustrates partners about to be married?
Allegedly, according to the Telegraph (lol) the un-named English and math teacher of Krefeld's Gesamtschule Kaiserplatz was expecting his baby. Oh yes, you heard it and read this shit here. Allegedly, the "Headteacher Jochen Adrian did not return calls for comment." – Now look at the name: Jochen Adrian – Joking Adrian – Joking Adrean – Adrean's Joking – Andreas Joke… Could be just a coincidence. Do you believe in coincidences? I don't.
This is the messed up article quoting tabloids: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/germany/11502621/Germanwings-co-pilot-Andreas-Lubitz-girlfriend-was-expecting-his-child.html
Let us not forget the pilot who slipped out of the Cabin for no known reason. My images suggests that the pilot – whoever it was stepped out to meet with a woman on the plane.
But where are all his pictures. He trained, became a captain, was married and had little children.
The pilot was allegedly 34 and the co-pilot allegedly 27. And no selfies littering the web? Really? And to believe that a 34 year old pilot with children and a wife at home did not have a phone on him as the plane was crashing to call or write for help is absurd.
But for the sake of this blog and those who want so see the photos and the official records of who was flying that plane and who these 3 people are, I ask for some help locating these.
Please send me photographs of Andreas Lubitz and Patrick Sonderheimer in uniform as pilots, in uniform for Germanwings, and sitting in the cockpits of planes. I cannot seem to find any such photographs and Lubitz's facebook has been memorialized and taken down the last I checked. If you find these photos, they would be a big help to my blog articles. Also, please forward photos of him and his ex-girlfriend that are not blurred out or photoshopped.
Thanks for your help.

Chemtrails Photos
I'm Going to Attempt Registering a FB Page to This
June 22, 2014
Please send me your articles and photo of the trails.
Since they are allegedly a hoax (not to me – to me, these are real what ever is in them), the photos and articles should cause no problems. Should they?
If we look at these trails in the sky left by planes as being visual pollution then maybe we can get traction that way.
"Visual pollution is an aesthetic issue, referring to the impacts of pollution that impair one's ability to enjoy a vista or view. The term is used broadly to cover visibility, limits on the ability to view distant objects, as well as the more subjective issue of visual clutter, structures that intrude upon otherwise "pretty" scenes, as well as graffiti and other visual defacement.

Desiree Rover Presents Chemtrails Lecture to the EU:
On April 9, 2013, in a hearing of the EU Parliament, I gave a presentation on the health effects of chemtrails.
See my slides on http://www.desireerover.nl/biowar/
Nanosized aluminum being sprayed in the atmosphere, causing degenerative disease, says neurosurgeon
I could build a limitless post with arguments for and against the existence of chemtrails. If we all agreed that they are chemtrails, then what chemicals are being sprayed would become the next list and why are they being sprayed the next list and by whom would be the next list.
I welcome discussion, please feel free to comment.
What I am going to try is a Visual Pollution – Trail-Art slant.
Please email your photos to me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Please include where and when it was taken and if you do OR do not want your name mentioned.
The simple observance of trails (ie chemtrails – I think) in one visual image collection shall speak for itself without conspiracy.
They are in the sky – that is not argued by anyone I have found. What they are, by whom and for what purpose forms the chemtrail conspiracy theories.

Iran military might defensive, not offensive: MP
An Iranian lawmaker says the country's military might poses no threat to any country and merely serves as a deterrent to counter any act of aggression against the Islamic Republic.
"Iran's missile systems are only there to defend the frontiers and sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran and are not aggressive under any circumstances," said Mohammad-Saleh Jokar, who sits on the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of Iran's Majlis.
The Iranian lawmaker made the remarks in reaction to a scaremongering annual report by the US Department of Defense on the Islamic Republic's missile capabilities.
The US claim that Iran's ballistic missiles can tip the balance in the Persian Gulf region is part of Washington's scheme to promote Iranophobia in the region, said the parliamentarian.
He added that the US also seeks to disrupt negotiations between Iran and the P5+1 group over Tehran's nuclear energy program.
"The US has always, at specific junctures, been seeking to provoke regional countries against Iran's military arms or missile systems, and as certain evidence suggests, this country (the US) still wants the negotiations not to yield results," Jokar said.
Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council – the United States, France, Britain, Russia, China – plus Germany have been discussing ways to iron out their differences and achieve a final deal.
The Iranian lawmaker further said the country's military might serves as a "stabilizing force" in the region.
In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in its defense sector and attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.
The Islamic Republic has repeatedly said its military might is based on deterrence.

Opinion: BPSD should give students a longer spring break
April 25, 2019
One of the many things that students look forward to in a school year is the iconic winter and spring break. These breaks give students time to disconnect from the stress of school and connect with their friends and family during the holiday.
Last year, BPSD had a three-day spring break, and two of those days were Saturday and Sunday! The break was so short because the district is making up snow days and other cancellations throughout the year.
This year was no different. BPSD once again only one day off, not including the weekend. This is not enough time to relax and spend time with your family.
I feel that districts should be forced to institute a longer break. One extra day is not enough time to reset and spend time with friends and family. I feel that the district should add days to the end of the year instead of taking away days from our spring break. Our winter break lasted a whole week this year, so why should the spring break be any different?
Many students had similar views.
Freshman Anna Counihan said, "We should have a longer spring break because one day off is not a break."
"This is the part of the year where we're burnt out. We need more time to clear our heads," said freshman Danielle Reiland.
Freshman Juli Murphy said, "They should [institute a longer break] because students need a break at this time of the year to regroup."

From John Adams to Joseph Mandrillon, 20 March 1790
New York March 20 1790
Mr Mandrillon.
The letter you did me the honor to write me, the 15th of June last did not arrive till yesterday. The memory of the time I passed in Holland, and of the esteem I conceived for several meritorious characters, and among others for Mr Mandrillon will I hope never be effaced. The elegant compliments you are pleased to make me, on my election to the dignity of Vice President of the United States of America, deserve my respectful acknowledgements. Mr Theophilus Cazenove will I hope find this Country prosperous in its commerce agriculture and manufactures, as well as happy in its enjoyment of civil and religious liberty. I wonder indeed that more of the patriots of the United provinces, especially those who are in banishment, have not ventured over the Atlantic. Innocence, peace and liberty may be here found in abundance; they have it in their power to bring wealth along with them and wealth may be in creased in this Country faster than in any other—at least by fair means. Can you give me any account of our old friend Cerisier?

No wonder, I am always jealous of the squirrels! Especially in the Fall season Particularly, when I see them enjoying the Acorns. I always knew, I was missing out. Ignorance is so faminizing!
See, I am a wild food hunter-gatherer. I am not afraid to venture out and scout for any food growing wildly; I don't spare trees, no shrubs or weeds or soils. It is a reflection of my upbringing and nutritional diet.
I was born in the Pearl of Africa. Our family grew our own food, as well as partook of what nature freely provided. When we got sick, my mom would comb the bushes and trees for leaves, shrubs and grasses to cure all sorts of ailments like, fever, malaria, cough or cold, stomach pains and aches, headache, cuts or burns. You name it, she knew and found the medicine, employing the knowledge passed down to her by her mother and her mother's mother.
As kids, we enjoyed fruits growing wildly on trees, beyond our backyard, such as, mangos, gooseberries, guavas, jackfruit, and plenty more I don't know by English name. Soil and clay were not spared, either. Property ownership was to "The Commons", not the now predominant individualized possession, which has overtaken communities, including in my origin.
To date, I am still a naturalist. Forget organic, the "post-modernist" newly found love for all things non-GMO! Funny enough, some "non-GMO" obsessive compulsives, denigrate wild foods as 'unhealthy' and 'unsafe' to eat. I call that ignorance!
Take for instance, an incident that happened last fall, while out on a group hike in our neighborhood big State Park. Along the hike in the woods, I stopped with Child Of Mine and his two cousins to pick and eat blueberries straight from the tree. One self-avowed "Mother Nature Keeper" expressed great shock that we were eating "unwashed wild fruits"! I thought to myself, what's the worst that would happen? Guess what, we didn't die!
Yet, she's not alone with that form kind of ignorance. Several of my social relations have frown upon me picking apples, pears or peaches that grow freely on trees in my neighborhood. Undeterred, I still pick wild Dandelion, good for tea, salad, and a constipation remedy. I enjoy crops of wild mint for my tea and salad, blackberries and more in my backyard!
Ironically, I am often sternly cautioned that the fruits and shrubs might contain pesticides, by those whose "Organic" fruits comes from grocery stores, whose main source they have no clue about! Btw, one of the grocery store suppliers failed to give a straight up response, when I asked if and how the eggplant I bought from their store, could be "seedless" and still "organic"? I stopped buying their brand.
So, as I ate the "O-chestnuts" I bought from the grocery store, a thought crossed my mind that should ask Siri,"If, acorns are good for human consumption?" Voila!
Sorry neighborhood squirrels, may the eating competition begin! Hello trees in our yard; here I come! With empty bags and buckets, COM and I are gonna pick, crush, roast and grind acorns this weekend. For all kinds of recipes — paste, pie filling, soup, pudding, flour, or just roasted stone of acorn. And since we'll be picking from the ground, I am hoping they'll dried and good to go.
It's the Fall y'all! Let's enjoy the Fall Harvest wild food hunter gatherers!

Twitter wins, big.
This contest raises a big question. Does Twitter challenge the credibility of old and new media?
The Personal Twitter Experience
Our group has been quietly blogging for 14 months. In six months, Google Blogsearch listed this particular blog as the top answer for 'Economics of Advertising'. A belated thanks to all the cross-links from thousands of followers.
We've influenced ideas used by leading blogs, without their acknowledging the source. As a new source, these brands did not bother to crosslink - and perhaps it's understandable as they maintain Google pagerank parity among legacy blogs and websites.
We did receive thousands of compliments from readers. Again, a belated thanks to the loyal readers.
Now, our Twitter followers have grown to #3 position in Silicon Valley. We've passed 95% of the technology blogs except Techcrunch, Mashable, and AlleyInsider.
What does this have to do with Ashton versus CNN?
@aplusk @cnnbrk - First to one Million
In humor, Ashton characterized the contest as personal versus the bureau credibility. He appealed to his audience to overcome a following, brand, and distribution disadvantage --- and won.
Is there an issue that legacy media cannot deliver results? Why did the broadcasts of the contest to millions not influence the advantage for CNN?
Let's come back to this.
Live Tweeting the Contest
Last night, we called the contest with technical details.
- Some blog reported a bug preventing the unfollow of these contestants. This was repeated throughout the blogsphere. It was not a bug. Twitter planned the pre-emptive challenge to accurately measure the one million-th user. If thousands unfollowed and followed again to become the one million-th, the answer won't be definitive. We did tweet the right information to our followers.
- Ashton and CNN both gained about 100 followers per minute. Thus, we predicted crossing the million mark at 10:30pm PST. It occurred at 10:15pm.
- New users provided 99% of the growth of followers. Most followed both without knowing the consequences of the contest. Thus, the numbers reflect the growth of Twitter, not the relative popularity of these brands. Why didn't these new users know about the contest?
- Ashton had a live video broadcast and appealed to his followers to get the word out. The Twitter feed was filled with tweets about Ashton Kutcher Live and Oprah, little about CNN. That made the difference as @aplusk caught and passed @CNNbrk.
- We unofficially identifed and twittered the one millionth follower. Let's wait for Twitter to announce the formal answer.
During the live tweet, thousands read and RT'd to pass on the information.
Passing Major Media with Followers
Our efforts have led to dramatic growth of followers at Twitter, passing what I had considered major brands. However:
- We discovered some major brands following us at Twitter to get us to return the follow. This is not unusual, but they dropped the follow to make themselves look popular at our expense. Stupid pet tricks. Narcissistic behavior at it's worst.
- Most don't even return the follow of their faithful readers. These actions block their followers from crossing the 2,000 follower level themselves. No media has reported this mathematical and social flaw at Twitter.
- Many brands are clueless with Twitter etiquette, simply connecting an RSS feed to their twitter account.
Raising Credibility Questions
If someone writes about social media and Twitter, do they need to demonstrate competence?
- How can one write and express opinions about a subject where they have no successful experience?
- With their legacy publishing advantage, shouldn't they be able to drive readers to follow them at Twitter?
- If they can't, are they showing weakness with their readers? Are they under-serving their advertisers in the same way? Is that why eCPM's are so low?
Ashton beat CNN, but CNN fairly presented the story as human interest - without pushing their own interests.
However, does Twitter present a new challenge to media. Without success at Twitter, media credibility among advertisers become issue one?
I don't know the answer, but the future of Twitter is assured.

Sensational Saturday - it is sensational to take a new look at an old classic book.
Most people have read Aesop's fables at some point in their lives. Many school children are taught morals and values via Aesop's fables at school. His story The Tortoise and The Hair is something that almost every person has heard of and referred to at least once in life.
An interesting thing happened while reading the stories. What was supposed to be a two or three minute reading of a story turned into a 15 or 20 minute time of talking with my son about his views on life, present and future. It was interesting to get his take on the stories. I was surprised at how quickly he grasped the point of each story and was able to apply then to real life situations. It was interesting that on many occasions he did not see how to apply the lessons to his own behavior when he initially heard the stories. However on quite a few occasions, two or three days later he would see how a story related to him personally, the reason I read the story to him
sensational Saturday, classic book, new lesson, bedtime story, Aesop's fables
I like the Aesop's fables now, not for the moral lessons they provide. Now I like the fables for the opportunity they gave me to talk with my son and to get to know him a little better. So, the question for you this sensational Saturday is what bedtime story do you share with your children?

Effect of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) exposure dose on fetal infection in vaccinated and nonvaccinated swine
James E. Benson, DVM, MS; Michael J. Yaeger, DVM, PhD; Kelly M. Lager, DVM, PhD
Complete article is available online.
PDF version is available online.
Objective: To evaluate the relative susceptibility of vaccinated and nonvaccinated pregnant swine to varied challenge doses of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) and the potential for increased challenge doses of PRRSV to overcome vaccine-induced immunity
Method: Fifteen nonpregnant gilts obtained from a PRRS-free herd were vaccinated twice with a modified-live PRRSV vaccine prior to artificial insemination. At 90 days of gestation, these VACC-CHAL gilts and 16 pregnant, nonvaccinated CHAL sows were randomly allotted to one of four experimental groups: a control group that received a sham inoculation, or to groups that received a "low" (102 CCID50), "middle" (104 CCID50), or "high" (106 CCID50) dose of an intramuscular challenge of the NADC-8 PRRSV strain.
Results: The number of infected litters in all dosage groups was significantly higher (P<.001) among CHAL females compared to VACC-CHAL females. Dead fetuses and viremia were observed in all litters in the low- and middle-dose groups, and in three of four litters in the high-dose group in the CHAL females; and in no low-dose litters, one of two middle-dose litters, and one of four high-dose litters in the VACC-CHAL females. No fetal death or viremia was identified in control groups. Among infected litters, no significant difference in the percentage of infected fetuses per litter was observed regardless of vaccination status or challenge virus dose. The number of litters with fetal death and infection was significantly lower in the low-dose VACC-CHAL group when compared to the low-dose CHAL group (P<.01), but no significant difference was demonstrated between the two medium or two high dose groups.
Implications: Vaccine-induced protective immunity appeared to protect eight of 10 litters from reproductive failure, but may be overcome with increased (>=104 CCID50) doses of challenge virus. The lowest PRRSV exposure dose (102 CCID50) tested in this study caused reproductive failure in naïve, unvaccinated animals. The percentage of infected fetuses per litter observed suggests that multiple fetuses/weakborn pigs should be sampled to ensure that infected animals are represented. Sampling dead or autolyzed fetuses is generally diagnostically unrewarding for PRRSV infection.

Asylum Theatre's sophomore production is Lanford Wilson's Burn This.
Following the death of Robbie, her roommate, dancer-choreographer Anna confronts her grief with support from her steady, uninspiring boyfriend Burton, and her caustic roommate and close friend Larry.
Robbie's brother Pale bursts into the apartment in a drink and grief-fueled frenzy, and sparks fly as he and Anna gravitate toward and repel one another in a dance of fury, empathy, sadness, desire, and passion.
Artistic Director Jason Maniccia says "As we're surrounded by a media landscape dominated by stories of dissent, anger, and alienation, this play about human magnetism and the desire to connect is a treasure."
Directed by Don Alder and featuring Heath Koerschgen as Pale, and Briana Ratterman as Anna, it is presented November 22 to December 15, Thursdays-Saturdays at 7:30 pm. Sunday matinee at 2 pm at Shoebox Theatre, 2110 SE 10th Ave. Tickets $25, at asylumpdx.org.

Source:Cancer Letters, Volume 400
Author(s): Sahar Taghavi, Mohammad Ramezani, Mona Alibolandi, Khalil Abnous, Seyed Mohammad Taghdisi
In this study, we reported epirubicin (Epi) encapsulated nanoparticles (NPs) formulated with biocompatible and biodegradable poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) modified with chitosan (CS) through a physical adsorption method. Using chitosan, the solubility and surface charge of PLGA was modified to make efficient drug carriers for cancer cells. To improve the anti-tumor efficacy, we developed targeted therapy of tumor cells using a 5TR1 DNA aptamer (Apt) against the MUC1 receptor. To prove the MUC1 receptor-mediated uptake of Epi-PLGA-CS-Apt NPs in the cells, competition experiments were carried out.In vitro experiments, cytotoxicity assay and fluorescence uptake assay demonstrated that fabricated NPs with or without aptamers showed significantly high therapeutic efficiency in MCF7 cells (breast cancer cell) compared with free Epi, while in BALB/c mice bearing C26 cells (murine colon carcinoma cell), targeted NP groups exhibited significant tumor growth inhibition and higher inclination to tumor compared with non-targeted NPs. Hence, our in vivo results revealed that non-targeted NPs may diffuse away from the tumor site and release Epi in the extracellular space and decrease concentration of the drug in the targeted tissue. This study indicated Epi-PLGA-CS-Apt has great potential as a promising nanoplatform for in vivo cancer therapy and could be of great value in medical use.

Kids exposed to 9/11 'dust' show signs of heart disease
Sixteen years after the collapse of the World Trade Center towers sent a "cloud" of toxic debris across Lower Manhattan, children living nearby who likely breathed in the ash and fumes are showing early signs of risk for future heart disease.
An analysis by NYU Langone Health researchers of blood tests of 308 children reveals 123 of whom may have come in direct contact with the dust on 9/11. Researchers found that children with higher blood levels of the chemicals known to be in the dust had elevated levels of artery-hardening fats in their blood.
"Since 9/11, we have focused a lot of attention on the psychological and mental fallout from witnessing the tragedy, but only now are the potential physical consequences of being within the disaster zone itself becoming clear," says study lead investigator and health epidemiologist Leonardo Trasande, MD, MPP, an associate professor at NYU School of Medicine.
The children who were more likely to be exposed to the dust, mostly young adults now, were enrollees in the World Trade Center Health Registry (WTCHR), which is helping to track the physical and mental health, through annual check-ups, of nearly 2,900 children who either lived or attended school in Lower Manhattan on 9/11.
According to Trasande, his study is the first to suggest long-term cardiovascular health risks in children from toxic chemical exposure on 9/11.
He says the long-term danger may stem from exposure to certain perfluoroalkyl substances, or PFASs – chemicals released into the air as electronics and furniture burned in the disaster. These include perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), widely used to make plastics more flexible until its health effects, including lower-than-normal birthweights and brain damage, led U.S. manufacturers to stop using it in 2014.
An analysis by Trasande in January 2017 showed that the same 123 children in the WTCHR had significantly higher PFOA blood levels than 185 children who were not living or studying in the city on the day of the attack.
Among the latest study's results was that roughly every threefold increase in blood PFOA levels was tied to an average 9 percent to 15 percent increase in blood fats, including LDL cholesterol and triglycerides.
According to Trasande, raised fat levels in the blood, especially LDL, are known risk factors for heart disease and can if left unchecked lead to blood vessel blockages and heart attack.
Fortunately, he says, these very early signs of cardiovascular risk observed in the WTCHR children can generally be addressed by diet, weight control, and exercise.
"Our study emphasizes the importance of monitoring the health consequences from 9/11 in children exposed to the dust, and offers hope that early intervention can alleviate some of the dangers to health posed by the disaster," says Trasande.
In another study published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research in June, a different research team at NYU found raised blood levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) in people who reported being exposed to WTC dust on 9/11.

1) I have tried it in Shapeshifter gui, i could input bigger size, but image is still less that 2 GB, i have tried - 4000 - and i got 0 zero size HDD file and 8000 MB and got 1700 MB file. Its working for you?
More images is nightmare, i prefer just few of them in every OS, usually 2 - system and data volume, and maybe some optimal crypted volume for work, porn and personal stuff. Some games has up to 1,5GB, have volume with 2 games is like old one more floppy / cd days.
2) Where is this wizzard located? I deleted some internet item form desktop, right after installation, i dunno if it was this config, or some alias.
3) Its shame, would be nice add this info into emulator features description, i bet that in these days, are people mainly using emulator for gaming.
With my attitude to QEMU, if is not guaranteed i would not touch it, is big time waster.
4) BTW is something like, possiblity change emulator settings when machine is already started or something some hidden, non GUI config features?
Settings are pretty limited.
5) Its not working for me, i added some windows folder through volume wizzard and shapefinder even doesnt started.
6) Ok, i would still be grateful for SW name, is hard to find for me, lots of links.
7) New ones:
Its possible change rom, after installation or same installed System files are rom related? BTW which roms is best for gaming? Im using one from 1999 - 1.6, because of some tutorial, but there are new ones from 2003.
8) I tried just for to be ready for future OpenGL fix, Vampire: The Masquarade date, i have used Virtual CD rom for toast mount, problem is that during installation is required disk second cd change and whole Finder is locked on this dialog. Is there any possiblity how to change cd? I tried mount both cds before installation but its not detected..
9) Some game move dock when started i dont know, how to move it back???
9) Some files cant be deleted because there locked, how to unclock them?

The Importance of Checklists
I sometimes think of my theory of evidence marshaling in legal settings as doing little more than laying out different kinds of checklists that are important in pretrial fact investigation and for trials. This is why I have just ordered the new book by Atul Gawande, The Checklist Manifesto: How to Get Things Right (2009). (Gawande is a surgeon.)
