How do you know when a technology has become mainstream? A good clue may be when politicians start talking about it on the campaign trail and with mainstream media. David Cameron, the UK prime minister, was the latest, indicating that the world was now on "fast-forward" with the Internet of Things (IoT) ushering in the new industrial revolution. No mention of IoT targeted at the masses would be complete without the clichéd example of the communicating fridge. While it is easy to get caught up in...

Lyrical Art Nouveau Diamond Ruby Pendant
Art Nouveau has wonderful rhythmic lines, asymmetry and a stylized organic content incorporated into its basic forms. This turn of the 20th century example shows how a pendant can display simultaneously both a lyrical harmonious balance and asymmetry. Note the overall sense of a budding flower with leaves portrayed as scrolling elements. Sinuous curved lines show a free-flowing sense of whimsy and an underlying dynamic movement creating a mood which seems almost alive with energy.
A flowerhead pendant drop completes the balance as white gold of 18k tops 18k yellow gold studded with thirty-five (35) rose cut diamonds of an estimated total .21 carats, seven (7) channel set natural rubies and one round faceted natural ruby. A modern silver chain accompanies the Art Nouveau pendant.
Date: Circa 1900.
Measurements: 1-11/16 inches (4.5 cm) in length without top "O" fitting and 1-13/16 inches (4.7 cm) by 1 inch (2.5 cm) in width. Chain is 16 inches (44 cm) in length. Weight of 6.5 grams (4.2 dwt) including chain.
Hallmarks: MD or MO.

A Brazilian-style martial arts studio has found a home in Felton.
San Lorenzo Valley natives Alex Ross, 30, and Austin Twohig, 31, have opened Santa Cruz Mountain Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in the Felton Faire shopping center.
"What we do is human chess for the most part," said Ross, a brown belt who has practiced Brazilian jujitsu since 2003.
Brazilian jujitsu, a martial art that Ross said is most similar to wrestling, is about building strength and moving the body into a strategically advantageous position to convince an opponent to give up. Opponents surrender by "tapping out" when they are beaten.
The discipline is Ross's passion and his full-time pursuit.
He began training with Chris Smith in Scotts Valley in 2003. He earned his blue belt in a year and a half, but he wanted to learn more.
For three years, Ross traveled between California and Brazil to work with world champions at Liga Jiu Jitsu, a training facility near Sao Paulo.
He said training with Brazilians where the sport originated required extreme dedication.
"If I trained there, I had to be there every day, at every class," Ross said. "No complaints."
He trained under Sergio Lisboa, a fifth-degree black belt who studied under Brazilian jujitsu legend Osvaldo Alves.
At the end of the three years, Ross was the first American to be promoted from his gym.
"That was a big deal because you need support (to be promoted)," Ross said.
Ross returned to the States and began teaching in 2008, opening a successful studio in Arcata. His was the only jujitsu studio in town, however, and he wanted to continue his own training.
He left the business and joined Alliance Jiu Jitsu, a five-time world championship-winning gym, where he trained under first-degree black belt Mitch Coats, a student of Alexandre "Gigi" Paiva.
In 2009, Ross was certified as an Alliance instructor and earned his brown belt.
Ross finished third at the Jiu Jitsu U.S. Open in the super heavyweight brown belt division in 2011 and then won the division in 2012.
Now, he has turned his efforts to teaching in his the new Felton studio.
"My passion is teaching," Ross said. "I'm never going to be a great champion, but I'll be a great instructor."
Ross said he already has a slate of classes for beginners and more experienced jujitsu practitioners, and he hopes to attract passionate learners.
"We offer a place for every kind of student to come and train," Ross said. "We don't just want tough guys or don't just want champions. I don't want toughness to be a requirement to be part of the gym."
Twohig, who attended San Lorenzo Valley High School with Ross, has practiced Brazilian jujitsu for five years and will run the business side of the studio while Ross teaches. Twohig also runs a wine tours business in the county.
"It's nice to be able to do this in Felton," Twohig said. "I remember in high school there were not a whole lot of positive things for kids to do here. This is a positive thing. Every time I leave an evening class, I feel amazing."
The duo is offering a special monthly rate for the first 20 adults and 20 children who join the gym, Twohig said.
WHAT: Santa Cruz Mountain Brazilian Jiu Jitsu
WHERE: 6241 Graham Hill Road in Felton

I'm new to the forum and have a question about the bushings on the Furious cams in my S4. I was replacing cables and string and noticed that the both cams has significant slop on the axles. While I could still get it tuned for no lean, I would like to get some fresh bushings in them for some piece of mind. Does Martin or others sell/install bushings for these cams?
Many thanks and I hope to frequent the forums more. The 07 S4 is new to me and just over a month old and I have an 04 SlayR SE that I will be converting to NOS X when I get around to making some strings and cables for it (another new endeavor).

Qua Stocks, the Wildcats' multi-purpose offensive threat, has been named to Region 5-AAAAA's first team offense.
Stocks, who saw action at wide receiver, tailback and quarterback, is the only player from Woodland who was either a first team or second team offensive or defensive selection. The Wildcats also had five players who were honorable mention selections on either offense and defense.
Coach Vince DiLorenzo felt that Stock's first-team selection was based on a combination of statistics and several intangibles that made opposing coaches take notice of his game potential.
The junior Wildcat rushed for 542 yards and three touchdowns on 71 carries. He also caught 48 passes for 746 yards and three touchdowns.
"No matter who we played, I was often informed afterwards that part of the coach's game plan was to stop No. 3," said DiLorenzo, Woodland's second-year varsity football coach. "That's quite an honor in itself. To know that coaches remembered who Qua was and the importance they placed on stopping him."
On a 2012 team dominated by 23 seniors, DiLorenzo turned to the junior when starting quarterback R. J. Williams went down with an ankle injury late in the season. In Woodland's season finale against Rome, Stocks was part of a pistol formation that enabled the offense to amass 34 points.
"Qua was a leader for us this past season as a junior, and he can be a leader for us next season as a senior," DiLorenzo said. "That's how a good a football player he is."

Mini Dachshund Puppies for Sale
Huey- Male Teacup Dorkie
• Male • $599
Mitch - Male ACA Dachshund
View More Puppies for Sale
Breed Group: Not AKC Recognized
Weight: 9-10 lbs
Height: 5-10 inches
Color(s): Brindle, sable, dappled; bi-color of black, chocolate, blue, fawn; solid of red and cream.
Dating back to the 16th century, the Mini Dachshund was created to hunt hare. Originating in Germany, this breed is actually a Terrier. They gained notoriety in England when Queen Victoria became a fancier. Today Mini Dachshund's continue to be popular pets and are occasionally still used for hunting.
A robust and muscular breed, the Mini Dachshund is short of leg and long in body. They possess an alert and intelligent expression. Mini Dachshund's are athletic, adventerous, and bold.
The Mini Dachshund is affectionate, devoted, and loving. Due to their small stature and tendency to be snappish when teased they do best in a home with older, considerate children. The Mini Dachshund breed is often aggressive or jealous of other pets. They are wary of strangers and will alert their family to visitors or out of the ordinary occurrences.
Mini Dachshund's are relatively easy to care for. The Smooth and Wire-Haired coat varieties require weekly brushing to remove loose and dead hair. In addition, the Wire-Haired variety needs professionally trimmed twice a year. The Long-Haired coat variety requires daily brushing to prevent matting and tangling. Bathing should be done when necessary. The Mini Dachshund breed is prone to such health issues as obesity, hip dysplasia, spinal problems, epilepsy, bloat, and eye disease.
The Mini Dachshund comes in three varieties: Smooth, Wire-Haired, and Long-Haired. The Smooth variety is sleek and short. The Wire-Haired variety is a double coat. The outer coat is short and hard, the under coat is soft and fine. The Long-Haired variety is elegant, glistening, slightly wavy, and is longer on the neck, chest, underside of the body, and behind the legs.
The Mini Dachshund has a tendency to be stubborn and willful; making training a challenge. They are notoriously difficult to housebreak and the crate training method is recommended. Early socialization and obedience is a must. They will not respond to harsh or heavy-handed methods. Training must be done with firmness, fairness, patience, and consistency.
Mini Dachshund's are ideal for both country or city living. They require sufficient exercise to prevent boredom and obesity. The Mini Dachshund enjoys securely leashed walks, indoor family play time, and off-lead play in a securely fenced yard.
If you are looking for Mini Dachshund puppies for sale from reputable Mini Dachshund breeders or to adopt Mini Dachshunds from a Mini Dachshund rescue then make sure you understand as much about the dog breeds you are interested in as you can.

the "sprouts." These are harvested whenever
they have reached a good size, but before they
begin to split or open. A mild frost at this stage
improves the flavor, making a sweeter "sprout."

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the Rockford Fosgate P2D2-8 by Jo Greene What's a component sub and why would I want one? A component sub is simply a speaker that's designed to reproduce bass once it's installed in a compatible enclosure. Think about the impact of a movie soundtrack in a big theater or even in your own home HDTV setup. A component sub can add the same kind of power to the music in your car. And a car sub is not all about the boom that you hear on a street corner (although that's cool too) - you can pair a component sub with your choice of enclosure to get bass just the way you like it, from tight and punchy to fat and loose. And once you experience music in your car with a well-tuned subwoofer, you'll never go back. Standout performance Rockford Fosgate showcases their fanatical commitment to sonic excellence in the Punch Series of speakers, amps, and subs. If you like to listen to potent, powerful music — and feel it too — Punch components will give you impressive sound that'll stand out in a crowd. Bulletproof bass Engineers at Rockford Fosgate designed the P2D2-8 8" subwoofer to dish out the kind of powerful low end you crave in your ride. Its responsive paper cone is reinforced with the same Kevlar® fibers used in bulletproof vests so you get the best of both worlds — warm bass that's exceptionally hard-hitting. Rockford Fosgate uses a new technique to attach the oversized rubber surround to the cone that increases available cone area up to 25%, so this sub can push more air for even bigger bass. Made for heavy excursion This P2 sub features an extended pole piece and bumped backplate that leaves more room for heavy excursion, so it'll hit deeper lows without "bottoming out." Special venting keeps the copper-clad aluminum voice coils cool through heavy use for consistent bass performance over time. The dual 2-ohm voice coils allow you to wire the sub for 1-ohm impedance to get maximum power output, or for 4-ohm impedance if you're using multiple subs. The P2D2-8 sub works equally well in a sealed or ported enclosure, so you can choose the kind of bass you want for your system. To drive this single subwoofer, we recommend a mono amplifier rated between 200 and 375 watts RMS at 4 ohms.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Enclosure Compatibility Features Overview: The Rockford Fosgate Punch P2D2-8 is an 8-inch subwoofer with dual 2Ω voice coils. The sub features a StampCast steel frame, quick-release compression terminals, a Kevlar fiber reinforced paper cone, and Santoprene surround. An anodized aluminum voice coil former and spider venting help keep the subwoofer cool. Dual 2Ω Voice Coils: The dual 2Ω voice coils offer wiring flexibility; when wired in parallel the woofer presents a 1Ω load, when wired in series the woofer presents a 4Ω load. Steel Basket: The P2D2-8 subwoofer features a StampCast steel basket for added rigidity. Compression Terminals: The P2D2-8 features spring post terminals which accommodate speaker wire up to 10 gauge. CEA-2031 Compliant: Power handling on the P2D2-8 subwoofer conforms to CEA-2031 industry standards. This means the subwoofer has the capacity to handle its rated power under continuous demand, not instantaneous power handling, that over time, can damage voice coils. FlexFit Basket: The Flex Fit frame utilizes slots (where possible) instead of single screw sized holes; allowing slight adjustment of the speaker when mounted. Trim Ring: To improve the cosmetic look, a decorative trim ring is included that mounts over the flange of the woofer. When using the cast aluminum trim ring the woofer is first mounted with four screws, then the ring is placed on top of the woofer, aligning the final four holes of the woofer with ring. The other four screws are used for these holes to mount the ring and woofer to the enclosure. Without the trim ring the mounting height of the woofer is approximately 7/8 of an inch. Enclosure Compatibility Sealed Box: Rockford recommends a sealed enclosure with an optimum internal volume of 0.23 cubic feet (from 0.2 to 0.3 cubic feet is acceptable). Sealed enclosures provide the most control over a woofer, will handle a lot of power, and provide accurate sonic reproduction, making them suitable to all types of music. Ported Box: Rockford recommends a ported enclosure with an internal volume of 0.65 cubic feet using one 2" diameter x 8" long port; this yields a tuning frequency of 38.5 Hz. Ported (or vented) enclosures typically provide better overall efficiency than sealed so they are suitable for use with smaller amplifiers, giving you more bass output from less power. However, this efficiency comes at the expense of very low frequency output (below 33 Hz).

Had William Faulkner or Cormac McCarthy turned their creative
impulses toward musical composition, the result might very well have
been something akin to Munly & The Lee Lewis Harlots. Often described
as, 'a thinkin' man's country music,' Munly's wide vocal range, from a
low bass to a high soprano, on top of the Harlot's dark, often sensuous
string arrangements make for a unique sound that remains long after the
music stops. From the dirge-like despair of "Jacob Dumb," the almost
frenetic ditties like "Of Silas Fauntleroy's Willingness to Impress the
Panel", to what seems to be a classic, "Big Black Bull Comes Like A
Caesar," the creative depth and range is at once challenging and
invigorating. One can't help but have the distinct feeling that these
songs were heart wrenchingly conceived and crafted. An impressive
marriage of musical arrangement and instrumentation with jaw-dropping
lyrical storytelling, Munly & The Lee Lewis Harlots is altogether an
intoxicating, seductive musical experience.
This release comes with 2 discs, one regular audio CD and one DVD with surround sound mixes of the album in several hi-def formats including DTS, lots of still images of Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots, complete lyrics read by Munly and more!
Munly is also the front sideman of Slim Cessna's Auto Club. This is a co-release with Smooch Records. Back in print!
"Much more sunken and skeletal in appearance than even Hank III yet manically alive, Munly (& the Lee Lewis Harlots) has been oft labeled simply "Gothic Country." Imagine the Rachels (the Quarterstick ones), the Handsome Family, Nick Cave, Bauhaus, and 16 Horsepower spending darkened hours passing around a bottle of XXX, telling languorous and remorseful spook tales before gesticulating frenetically and knocking over the lantern, thus burning down the barn. Whirls fantastically like a dervish and is as creepy and weepy as a poison sumac rash."- Razorcake

There is plenty that GOP candidates could use as fodder to attack Barack Obama. An unemployment rate of 9 percent for much of his presidency seems like awfully low-hanging fruit. So why in the world are they bothering to question the president on things that have little basis in reality?
Take Mitt Romney, for example. Speaking at the Republican Jewish Coalition Forum last week, Romney said, "This president appears more generous to our enemies than he is to our friends. Such is the natural tendency of someone who is unsure of America's strength — or of America's rightful place in the world."
But, in fact, Obama's foreign policy has taken a such a hard line that he has been likened to his predecessor, George W. Bush, much to the dismay of many progressives in his own party. He has not closed Guantanamo, after promising he would; he has continued to perform renditions and moving suspects into airspace or locations so the government can perform interrogations he couldn't attempt elsewhere; he's used drones in lieu of putting American troops in danger.
So, who exactly are these enemies that Mitt Romney is referring to? Who has President Obama been more generous to than our friends? Obama has exerted American strength to the degree that has made many less-hawkish among us wince.
Recently asked if he's an appeaser, he responded: "Ask Osama bin Laden and the 22-out-of-30 top al Qaeda leaders who've been taken off the field whether I engage in appeasement. Or whoever is left out there, ask them about that."

text: I believe this is a misconception. Presenting both sides does not make a story unbiased. Take another issue as an example; should journalists give 50% coverage to the North Korean government when reporting on human rights in that country? Certainly not. Nor should we expect the public relations line of a polluting industry to be given half of a story's weight.Originally Posted by Puck

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
A growing economy constantly creates new job opportunities in new sectors, but also displaces and even destroys existing jobs. The workforce in an entrepreneurial economy must always evolve as well. Government efforts to protect jobs are often misguided, hindering growth and new job creation. Pro-growth workforce rules should instead focus on developing worker skills, allowing maximum hiring and layoff flexibility, and focus adjustment efforts on getting displaced workers into new jobs as soon as possible. Small firms employ half of all private sector employees and create 60-80 percent of net new jobs in the U.S., according to the SBA. Labor rules are one of the largest barriers to entrepreneurial ventures. The World Bank's cross-country comparison of labor regulations shows lower job creation where workplace rules are more rigid. Labor rules must move beyond the early 20th century framework of management versus labor and encourage new firm formation as well as a dynamic, not static, worker.

According to the latest report from our Wireless Smartphone Strategies (WSS) service: Global Smartphone Sales Forecast for 88 Countries : 2007 to 2020, global smartphone sales will grow +13% in 2015, offseting the slowdown in feature phones.
Asia Pacific will remain the growth driver, accounting for half of global volumes in 2015. China and US will remain the largest smartphone sales countries through 2015. India will surpass the US to become the 2nd larget market by 2019. Central Latin America and Africa Middle East will see strong smartphone growth through 2020 and play a role as a new growth engine for the global market.The world's top 20 countries will account for 8 in 10 of global smartphone volumes in 2015.
According to new research from our Country Share Tracker (CST) service, the Xiaomi Redmi was the world's 4th best-selling smartphone by volume in Q2 2014. The impressive performance (re)confirms how big the China market has become, and how powerful the Chinese brands are becoming (e.g. Huawei, Lenovo, TCL-A, ZTE, etc.). More analysis and data, of global smartphone shipments by MODEL for Q2 2014, can be downloaded by clients here.
The French mobile phone market dipped 5% YoY in Q2 2014, in keeping with the longer-term trend of slightly sluggish growth in the country. Among vendors, Samsung and Apple retained the top two spots, but both brands lost share. Local vendor, Wiko, continued to make impressive gains -- although, there are signs it may be slowing. This published report, available to clients, tracks handset vendor marketshare at the four major French operators -- Orange, SFR, Bouygues Telecom and Free Mobile -- from Q1 2009 to Q2 2014. The report is an important tool for measuring the health of individual handset brands at the operator level.
Google unveiled three new smartphones based on the previously announced Android One program at an event in New Delhi, India, on September 15th, 2014.
The 3 new models are the Spice One Dream UNO Mi-498, Micromax Canvas A1 and Karbonn Sparkle V. They are all based on the Android One platform (KitKat) and come with the Google Play Store preinstalled.
Our Wireless Smartphone Strategies (WSS) service forecasts Android One to account for 1% of global smartphone sales in 2014. It is a niche-but-growing program for superphone vendors to target the "next billion" users in emerging markets.
According to a new report from our Wireless Smartphone Strategies (WSS) service -- Value Share : Global Smartphone Revenue and ASP by Vendor by Price-Tier : Q2 2014 -- Lenovo became the world's largest smartphone vendor by volume in the entry-tier category in the second quarter of 2014. This is a first for the company.However, we note the vast majority of Lenovo's smartphone shipments are generated in its home market of China. Outside China, Lenovo remains a tiny second-tier smartphone brand at the moment.More analysis of Lenovo and smartphone shipments by price-tier can be viewed by clients here.
According our Smartphones (WSS) research service, HTC's global smartphone shipments fell year-on-year in Q2 2014. This was the vendor's tenth straight quarter of volume declines. Like Motorola and Nokia, should HTC start searching for a merger partner in 2015? This published report, available to clients, explores the strategic options available to HTC.
According to the latest research from our WSS (Smartphones) service, global smartphone shipments grew 27 percent annually to reach 295 million units in the second quarter of 2014. Xiaomi was the star performer, capturing a record 5 percent marketshare and becoming the world's fifth largest smartphone vendor for the first time ever.
Global smartphone shipments grew 27 percent annually from 233.0 million units in Q2 2013 to 295.2 million in Q2 2014. Smartphone growth was mixed on a regional basis during the quarter, with healthy demand in Asia and Africa counterbalanced by sluggish volumes across North America and Europe due to changes in the operator subsidy mix.
Samsung shipped 74.5 million smartphones worldwide and captured 25 percent marketshare in Q2 2014, dipping from 33 percent a year earlier. Samsung continues to face tough competition from Apple at the higher-end of the smartphone market and from Chinese brands like Huawei at the lower-end. Apple grew a below-average 13 percent annually and shipped 35.2 million iPhones worldwide for 12 percent marketshare in Q2 2014. Apple is currently in a holding pattern awaiting the expected launch of bigger-screen iPhones later this year. Huawei maintained third position in smartphones globally with a record 7 percent marketshare. Huawei is making strong gains in the high-growth LTE market with popular models such as the Ascend P7. In contrast, Lenovo is struggling in the fast-emerging LTE segment and as a result its global smartphone marketshare stayed broadly flat around the 5 percent range. Lenovo's smartphone growth has more than halved in the past year and its rapid expansion seen in recent quarters is coming to an end.
Xiaomi was the star performer in the quarter, capturing a record 5 percent marketshare and rising into fifth place in the global smartphone rankings for the first time ever. Xiaomi's Android smartphone models are wildly popular in the Chinese market and it shifts millions of them every quarter through its extensive online and operator channels. Xiaomi's next step is to target the international market in Asia and Europe, where it will have to invest big money to familiarize western consumers with its unfamiliar brand name. LG held sixth place for 5 percent global smartphone share and a record 14.5 million units shipped. LG is performing relatively well in the United States and Europe, but it continues to lag in the huge China and India markets.
Exhibit 1: Global Smartphone Vendor Shipments and Marketshare in Q2 2014 [1]

[1] Numbers are rounded.
According to the latest research from our WSS (Smarpthones) service, global smartphone shipments reached 295 million units in the second quarter of 2014. The Android operating system captured a new record of 85 percent global marketshare, mainly at the expense of BlackBerry, Apple iOS and Microsoft Windows Phone.Global smartphone shipments grew 27 percent annually from 233.0 million units in Q2 2013 to 295.2 million in Q2 2014. We estimate worldwide smartphone growth has halved during the past year, from 49 percent a year ago to 27 percent today. Global smartphone growth in the current quarter is at its lowest level for five years, and there are wide variations by region. For example, Africa and Asia are booming, while North America and Europe are maturing.Android's domination of global smartphone shipments reached a new peak in Q2 2014, with an impressive 85 percent of all smartphones now running Google's OS. Android's gain came at the expense of every major rival platform. BlackBerry saw its global smartphone share tumble from 2 percent to 1 percent in the past year due to a weak line-up of BB10 devices. Apple iOS lost one point of share to Android because of its limited presence at the lower end of the smartphone market. Microsoft Windows Phone continued to struggle in the United States and China, and its global smartphone marketshare fell from 4 percent in Q2 2013 to just 3 percent during Q2 2014.Like the PC market, Android is on the verge of turning smartphone platforms into a one-horse race. Its low-cost services and user-friendly software remain wildly attractive to hardware makers, operators and consumers worldwide. Rival OS vendors are going to have to do something revolutionary to overturn Android's huge lead in smartphone shipments. Apple's push into the big-screen phablet market and Firefox's expansion into the ultra-low-cost smartphone market later this year are the only major threats to Android's continued growth at this stage.Exhibit 1: Global Smartphone OS Shipments and Market Share in Q2 2014 [1]
According to the recently published report from Wireless Smartphone Strategies (WSS) service, global smartphone user base is expected to get close to 2.5 billion by the close of 2015. By region term, Asia Pacific is estimated to account for a lion's share, mainly boosted by a growing number of smartphone users in emerging markets including China, India, Indonesia, Philippines and Vietnam in addition to two established smartphone countries, South Korea and Japan. Smartphone user base for 88 countries in 6 continents are covered in this report.
The report is also forecasting the global smartphone user population penetration to figure out the ratio of smartphone ownership out of population and the global smartphone user household penetration to understand the propotion of active users per every single household for 88 countries through 2020.
According to our WSS (Smartphones) research service, BlackBerry smartphone shipments fell sharply worldwide during Q2 2014. The Canadian vendor continued to struggle in all regions worldwide. However, cost-cutting and inventory destocking helped BlackBerry to trim its financial losses to the lowest level for over a year. A partnership with Amazon Appstore also improved its services portfolio and there are tentative signs that BlackBerry may finally stabilize in the second half of this year.
