Every action that we perform as human beings requires a skill (or several). It can range from putting a jacket on to calculating the center of mass of a boomerang. As is quite evident, different actions require different skills and none of that changes when discussing video games. However, skill can not merely be broken down to "knowing that game, knowing gaming in general, knowing the genre, and just good ol' fashion experience." The human form differs greatly from one being to another, and with that, certain people possess qualities that provide them with incredible advantages over others. For instance, people that see better, hear more clearly, have faster reflexes, have more precise movements with their hands, can rationalize faster, etc. will have a huge advantage over other players in, say, an FPS game. Some people learn faster as well, which is yet another significant factor to consider. Yes, these can be trained, learned, and refined, but your genetics will always determine your hard limits.

What I find funny are the people who talk about how PvP sucks, or it can only be done in a zerg, or X other excuse for their lack of skill...
And then watching them try to justify it when they and the other 30+ people in their zerg get wiped by 1-2 groups of 5.

"Tolerance is a sign of weakness."
Look, OP. "True skill" is a concept created by the MMO community. You can't say that a concept is a myth. There is no way to argue about that, so you're wrong from the beginning. It's not an ideal or a belief, it's a concept.
The concept of "true skill" can be easily illustrated by a thought experiment:
1 - Two friends challenge eachother to a competition. The competition is: "whoever manages to sit for the most time, wins". Then they both sit in a chair and the one who gets up first looses.
2 - Playing tennis.
We, the MMO community, created this concept to illustrate the difference between those two competitions. Both require skill, and in both cases the most trained one will win, but only the second one is considered a "true skill" game. Why? Because it either takes teamwork, strategy or speed instead of patience, money or time.
Ex. of "true skill" games:
Dancing games (speed, coordination)
Shooting games (coordination, accuracy, eye-hand)
MOBA (teamwork, speed)
Non-"true skill" games:
P2W games (whoever spends more money, wins)
Farming games (the one who wins at PvP is the one who farmed the most)
Level-Scaling casual games (leveling takes the same time to skilled and unskilled players, whoever has the higher level wins)
I'm terribly sorry, but as you can see you're very mistaken and the OP is completely pointless. If we decide to create a concept called "nihilismlessness" that means how fast you can squat while playing a game, the only thing you can say about it is "oh, that's lame". You can't say that it's a myth or that it's wrong. I'm sorry. And please, if you had experience with MMO's you would certainly know that. Or maybe you're just very bad at ontology.

Modern mmo takes skill believe it or not...how can you even think otherwise ?
Cooldown planning
If you think competitive pvp in mmo's doesnt require skills then every mmo player could be gladiator in WoW or top of the line GW1 /GW2 pvp player.
Dude ever seen a movie from Hydra a priest in WoW ?
Ever came across the most nerfed class in a game and get totaly roflstomped and outplayed ?
You guys realy think it takes no skill to play at high level pvp in mmo ? :)
To each his own opinion but your very wrong when you think it takes low skill to play at high level pvp ;)

An FPS may require a greater extent of one type of skill than an mmo, or an rts or a whatever. An FPS may also require a greater ratio of skill to other factors than an mmo, or a moba or whatever. But then if you come along and proclaim "FPS is the true skill", then you being daft.
Those "non true skill" examples you gave are actually "skill-less" and there is a rather large difference.
It's just the same when people bang on about "true pvp". There is no such thing as "true pvp", there are simply differing forms of pvp. Some forms may require one set of skills over another, some may require a larger amount of skill, some may be zero skill. But they are all still forms of pvp, none is more "true" than the other.
Are there games/activities which require different types of skill? Yes.
Are there games/activities which require more skill than others? Yes.
Are there games/activities which require little to no skill? Yes.
Is there a fundamentally "true skill" or "true pvp"? No, clearly not.

Logic be damned!
I don't know, it's not "easy" to get 4 kills with 4 head shots with a Sniper Rifle in a single clip w/o reloading in Halo: Reach multiplayer, but I did it last night and was part of me going 14:0 in a match.
(Yep, practicing up for Halo 4!!)
I had a Shotgun spree and a Sniper spree (5 each), 1 kill with a Pistol, 1 with the DMR, 1 melee (assassination), and 1 with Assault Rifle.
Is that skill?
I'm sure there are players much, much better than me at Halo - but that was pretty damn fun and I felt good about it.
I've probably been lurking for way, way too long.

I don't agree with the term and I don't use it either, but the OP was just pointless by saying that it's a myth without understanding what people mean with "true skill". There are many forms of skills, but the MMO community chose to call some of them "true skill", that's it. There is no mystery and there is no discussion.
It's like arguing that the "sandbox" term is wrong by saying that there's not sand in-game. Just like biopolitics - it doesn't have anything to do with biology.
And the examples I gave are not skillless (except for P2W). Patience and endurance are skills. Being able to farm 16 hours per day is a skill. The problem is that it's not a skill valorized by PvPers.
The term is as bad as "true metal". It's just a different type of metal music. People chose to denominate a subgroup as "true", and you can't do anything about it. It's a concept, it can't be a "myth".

You may not be able to say a concept is wrong (I think you can actually), but you absolutely can say that the reasons or premise that the concept is built up on is wrong, and therefore the concept is incredibly flawed aka wrong.

True skill is a myth and will always be. The concept of high skill ceiling games tho is REAL. We don't care if the MMO community created the concept of true skill, it doesn't mean its right. What people think true skill is will usually be mistaken for high skill ceiling, something that most MMO player don't have a clue what it means from what I can see.
Well actually walking is definitely a skill and drinking from a cup definitely has components of skill anyway. A common skill that is normally mastered early but a skill non the less. Just ask anyone involved in physical rehab if they think it is a skill. The answer will be positive. Actually I'm impressed that we do them as well as we do. When you consider the amount of neural control and recruitment, muscular recruitment from gross muscles to fine stabilizers of specific joints to overall body mechanics, to vestibular apparatus use to energy production and storage needed to produce the movement and delivery systems to support it... it truly is staggering.
However the celing does exist. We dont' know where it is, but we know the closer we get to in, further gains take significantly longer and involve more effort.

You are wrong sir. Just flat out wrong. 'True Skill' is not a myth, but it does require a definition (as it's not a real term). To me, and I'd like to think that most people would agree on this, 'true skill' is:
When a win, or favorable outcome, is determined by the players own merits over flaws or exploits in a game's mechanics.
For example, if you win a game because you are lvl 80, and your enemy is lvl 60, that's not really 'skill', it's winning because you were able to exploit a game's mechanics over your opponent. Basically the game is giving you the advantage. When this comes to PvP in an MMO, it's winning because of an imbalance of somekind, rather than through superior tactics, reactions, or coordination.
A really good example of 'true skill' in gaming, is league of legends. You don't need good 'twitch skills', but through making smart decisions, having good reflexes, good teammwork, etc. determines the outcome of a match. You can literally see in games when power shifts in one direction or another. It's not given by some game mechanic, but rather taken through player initiative. Skill takes practice, and is something you have or develope, as opposed to something given to you.
It's because of this, that while some have argued that 'knowing the best gear, or where to find the best stuff, or best skills in an MMO can be considered skill', such information has become such public knowledge that this argument holds less and less water each year.
To understand the difference between 'true skill' and power given to you from a video game, go play Demon Souls. In that game you can run through the game w/ out grinding lvls and, if you're good enough, still make it through. However, if you aren't good enough, you can grind lvls and have the game give you the difference in power. That, in one game, illustrates the difference perfectly.
If you still can't see the that certain games take 'true skill', you probably need to play less RPGs, and check out some of the rest of the industry. There are quite a few of these games out there.

Whether it be activating skills a fraction of a second sooner, or more efficiently dodge, or setup attacks; or be able to predict 6 moves ahead as opposed to 5, the advantage is there and it's usually amongst top tier players where such small advantage decide the outcomes.
But we don't know what perfection is because its never been seen. So hoe do we know when we've achieved it

I guess games take good hand eye coordination and knowledge of the game itself, but esports is the biggest loser fest i've ever witness and some gamers actually worship these pro gamers..sad very sad.

IMO you are wrong too. What you call "True Skill" is player skill for me. Like I sais before, some skills will transfert from one game to another, but usually not on the same emphasis. So there's no "True Skill" that will make you one of the best at every competitive games like the myth of "True Skill" imply (at least that's what I think of when people talk about "True Skill").
Your example of LoL is a pretty bad one IMO, since the game as a lower skill ceiling than Dota, so you couldn't have "True Skill" in a game that is easier to play than another one. Making smart decisions, having good reflexes (really in LoL?, that's like the last thing you need to play LoL if you compare it to MMO's or FPS) and teamwork are a must to anyone who want to be a good player in nearly every competitive games. Those 3 skills alone will never make you a top player. They are only the half of the job. You might think those are "True Skill" but if you don't do the other part of the job, which imply playing a lot, studying every aspects of the game, learning the games mechanics, learning how to counter properly and so on, your "True Skill" is next to useless since you will still suck at the game even if you have good reflexes, team work and smart decisions making (well you need to study the game a lot to have good desicions making, but I think you get the point). Sure skill take pratice, but sometimes, it comes from natural talent too.
You other example of your console game is another really bad example. You won't get skill out of a single player game...I mean comon after all you wrote, I would've thought you would know better than this. Well I guess some people still thinks single player game requires any skill...lol.
If you still think that ''True Skill" exist and can make you a top player of any games, then I guess you should go play high skill ceiling games so you could understand what having real skills mean. Also if you want, go read my other posts in this thread about skill ceiling. Because, playing a high skill ceiling game will always make you a better player if you can compete at the top then compete at the top in a low skill ceiling game.

The age of pre-paid apps is over
The entire Apple community has spent much of the last several years coming to terms with the post-App Store software market, where people won't pay even a few dollars for a great app, but will pay hundreds of dollars to get a higher score on Candy Crush or a better looking Springfield on Tapped Out. But it's not just games, as Marco Arment points out:
This is the real reason why Apple doesn't care about upgrade pricing: there's no demand from customers. The market has shown that free apps will be downloaded at least an order of magnitude more than paid-up-front apps, and smart use of in-app purchase in a free app is likely to make more money. Over time, this trend has only become stronger and more clear.
Paid-up-front iOS apps had a great run, but it's over. Time to make other plans.
It's not the App Store some of us want, but it's the App Store most of us have decided to support and reward. Whether we look back at the simpler time when we paid a fair price for a great app and incrementally upgraded from there as the dark ages, or as the good old days, remains to be seen.
As does the types of apps this in-app future, fully realized, will bring.

The age of pre-paid apps is over
Agreed 100%. This wouldn't work for all apps - some apps deliver all their usefulness in a very short timespan - but it would be a HUGE win-win in all other cases. Customers love to see and touch before they buy. Developers wouldn't have to go through hoops to advertise / add IAPS / and other complications of Freemium implementations. Paid app business model could thrive again. Paid upgrades are a whole new minefield, but free trial period has very few drawbacks and a huge upside. Please Apple, please!!!
Agreed. I've bought several apps that turned out to be completely useless. Google has many more free options or "lite" options to allow users to try before they buy. I don't care how stringent Apple is compared to Google...it does nothing to ensure the user to be happy with paying $1.99 for an app that doesn't do what it claims.
No worries there. Unless you break all of your fingers, you should be fine.
IAP's are the debil!
That's usually the first thing I check before deciding, "Yes, I will download this app".
I'd rather pay up front than have to deal with extra menus full of IAP's.
... Of course I have found some good "free app of the day" deals in the last year.
Sent from the iMore App
So, basically cheapskates with addictive personalities dominate the population. That explains a lot.
I will not even download a freemium app. I don't care how good it looks or it's supposed to be. I won't support this model ever. I will pay $5 for a good game or app, but I'm apparently in the minority. The only "free" apps I download are major ones that subsidize through ads such as Pocket, Pulse, etc.
No developer will ever get a dime out of me for an IAP and I will stay stubborn about that to my grave. This model needs to die an excruciating death. I just wish more people were like me. The app landscape is becoming a very sorry one to the point where I'm weary about even downloading free apps that I don't think have IAPs.
Good point. I should clarify my position. I have paid to remove ads (I hate them) and to unlock features that make the app better (Titanium Backup for android comes to mind) as well as other templates within some apps.
What I will never pay for are game IAPs or IAPs that you have to buy just to make the app useful. I'd rather pay up front and be done with it.
While I hate the pay to win apps, I don't mind all in app purchases. Some developers just let you pay to unlock the full version. I prefer that to having a lite and pro version as different apps.
Sitting in your side of the fence.....I prefer to buy the full version of an app up front & have been doing that ever since I started with smartphones (hell, I even used to do it in the early Android Market days too!!). I don't play games (Tetris is the only 1 I have/need installed), so that doesn't really apply to me, but if I did I know 100% I would have no problem paying a premium/higher price up front instead of these b.s. IAPs devs are going to now bc people are ridiculous (the reasoning & habits IMHO) with their mobile app/game purchases.
IAP purchases are just annoying when done wrong.. in games like temple run and subway surfer it's done right as IAP does not come in the way of enjoying the game or isn't forces on you.. take the new asphalt 8, it is appalling how much they charge for IAP example to buy some super cars it costs like £70 lol that's more than gta 5 and it's pretty impossible to actually get far in the game as Imo the game is rigged so you dont win with a slow car and this game isn't even free to download.. IAP has ruined gaming Imo, devs are just taking advantage and instead of making a good game they now create games around IAP.. imo they should have a one off iap purchase that lets you have the full game.
If every app were free and I had to pay to unlock ad-free status or....syncing options (I don't know, just making something up) I'm cool with that. I mean, I'd rather pay for that up front for an app I really want but at the end of the day if it is cost neutral to me I don't really care. I like simple things and IAPs can be decidedly not simple for devs to price fairly or consumers to wade through - but so it goes.
The Timer app from App Cubby is a good app with IAP. It worked well on it's own for free, showed me some adds, and limited me to a basic design. I wanted a bit more out of it so I paid to unlock a different design and got no ads in the process (I believe - I don't remember the breakdown exactly). The in app purchase was fairly priced and was around what I would have paid for up front for the app anyway.
I don't like the model very much but it can work. We as educated consumers have to be careful about who we reward with our money so that we can encourage high quality apps for our needs.
I never paid for any in-app purchases. And I will never do. The same reason I decided to play World of Warcraft on Mac and not any other game. I don't like the Free to play idea then end up paying hundreds when I can pay few bucks for a full featured service. That's why I was so sad when I knew WhatsApp went free, although my number has lifetime service it is still annoying, what if I got a new cell phone number? moved to a different country. I will be stuck paying 0.99$ per year. I know that's not much, but still I hate this idea, but I am thankful to BlackBerry that BBM is now there and I will no longer need to waste a cent on WhatsApp.
How can being forced to pay 99 cents a year cause so much emotion?
The question is how to adjust your business model for a freemium / IAP. Let's say if you create productivity apps, in apps are probably not the best way of making money and delivering good user experience. Subscriptions might be big.
Adapt , Improvise, Overcome.
No offense but Whaaaaaa! Where's my tiny violin. MOST people do not want to pay for apps. You quoted it yourself "there's no demand from customers." Most people do not have issues. They simply don't buy in app purchases and/or don't buy an app that gives them little value for their money. A very easy solution.
I gladly pay for apps that perform as stated, and as per my needs. Free garbage apps, apps that clutter my screen with ad bombardments, ect, are not downloaded, or are deleted.
I've also reached the point, a year or so ago, where I no longer want to deal with the huge number of apps. So I'll gladly pay for great apps that perform as needed, and preferably, they can serve more than one over-simplified task. The net result is fewer apps, better functionality, less frustration, get more done...with less...sooner.
Just my 2 cents. :-)
That's not been our experience.
We have two versions of our popular "MailShot" app on the App Store. One is the full-price app ("MailShot Pro") and the other is free to download, with a single IAP to remove size limitations on the group. One is typically the first result when you search for "Group Email", the other charts around #4.
This does gives people a choice as to how they want to buy the app, and has worked very well for us, (other than the occasional user who downloads both versions and pays twice, who Apple usually refund, or review complaining that the free version doesn't do everything they want.)
The interesting thing is that the revenue from these two versions has been almost exactly equal over the past year, and although 4 or 5 times more users download the free version than Pro, over 20% then upgrade it with the IAP as a single one-off purchase. I know that is a high percentage for IAP- I hear 1-2% is more usual for games, for example- but this is our experience.
We haven't detected a noticeable swing in purchase pattern towards IAP over the past year.
I have made it a point to support software creators on my iPhone from the beginning. Around me a multitude of friends that just cracked their divices and got everything for free. Basically they thought me the fool for not doing this also. At what point will an honest consumer like me be pestered and ripped off time and time again till the tipping point is passed and also just say ah screw it and go ahead and get everything for free since more and more of these apps are crap or just chock full of adverts and or money sucking IAP vampires anyways?
Can't believe people are this stupid. Before you know it we will be getting charged for oxygen.
"This is the real reason why Apple doesn't care about upgrade pricing: there's no demand from customers"
Since Apple doesn't offer traditional "upgrades" or "trial software" then effectively the way we always bought software probably is "dead" Not because we made a choice, but by the fact that we really were never given one. Not buying an app is a choice of course, but obviously not enough people have exercised that option to make a difference. So in this case "not buying" is really not a choice that has any impact on the model.
Personally I am not a fan of the model. For apps I know, from companies I like, I would probably have no issue buying that app up front. Without being able to trial an app I am not familiar with to see if it works as advertised, I am much less likely to take the leap of faith and buy up front. If I need to go to their site and trial the app, then why not just buy it directly from them?? If we are headed down a path of all IAPs where I am am asked to shell out money to unlock every useful feature I am pretty sure buying from the Mac App Store will no longer be an option for me.
It also seems to me that we are heading down a path where companies (really shareholders) want reliable revenue streams in a timely manner. The traditional upgrade cycle no longer meets that need as innovation can't seem to keep up... So subscription models, and IAPs are being experimented with... People like me are struggling with this change in the marketplace as I want to pay and be done with it.
Personally I never buy or download free apps that have IAP. I dont like apps/games with IAP ,and the same thing i've heard from the most of my friends. I belive that IAP model is a waste of time for devs and waste of time&money for users. Prepay for good and clean apps and delete crap free or IAP apps to keep clean your phone screen and free gb space..
I'm not sure I'd declare something dead based on the opinion of one lone minor app developer but this is an issue we've all discussed the past few years. Besides, his apps are niche. "I'm going to have a hard time justifying an up-front purchase for Overcast — that's the fastest way to ensure that nobody outside of our upscale-geek world ever uses it." Well yeah , especially if you decide to make a niche product that Apple already does for free. Good luck with this..
I've no problem with the concept that devs should get paid the more you use their app. I know I get paid the more hours I put in for a client. But I make it clear to them how much I charge and spell out everything I am going to do for them in an engagement letter. A lot of these in-app purchase freemium apps make no such distinction. If I see that the app uses virtual currency or has in-app purchase options of 50 dollars or even 99 dollars, I stay the heck away.
Apple can fix things since it is lord and dictator of the app store. It's up to them if they want to allow deceptive devs to rule their store. It's also up to iMore if they want to continue making bold declarations based on the rantings of one who decided to make a niche product (already offered for free by the likes of Apple) that he doesn't think anyone will pay upfront for.
I think your first paragraph nails something. There just isn't a ton of demand for some apps, especially outside as he puts it the "upscale geek world." I mean people i know are trying to pay less for everything cause they make less. They aren't walking around saying, "hey i want to pay more for stuff that I can get free." Which brings me to your point about it being a niche app for a product that apple already makes free. That's the case for most apps in a big picture sense. There is often a perfectly adequate free version that most people will use without ever buying anything in app. Thus the paid app isn't actually worth that much. There's a adequate free alternative by many competitors. And even that author mentions the most used podcast apps are, apple's, then Sticher, and then downcast. And he points out that the first two are free. He didn't point out but i will that that Downcast is also $2 less than the other one he mentioned instacast and it goes on sale once a year and you can get it for $3 less. I use it, It's one of like three apps i've ever bought. It's great. But if you don't need the advanced functions the free apple app works fine. Hell i'd probably have kept using it if i wasn't hardcore with podcasts and hating on the reel to reel look they had for a minute. But point is most people like free, if there's a free alternative they can't be surprised when people gravitate towards that. The solution is make and sell a product that doesn't have a ton of alternative free options. Make an app nobodies done before that's in high demand that apple can't do as well.
It really depends on the developer, what kind of app it is, the quality, what problem he's trying to solve for you, etc. Apple isn't targeting the lowest tier. Why should a developer?
Marco Polo doesn't get it. Every market has a glut of cheap products and companies that sell crap for near free or fill it with ads so that the user experience is crap. And yes, this usually gets the majority of the marketshare. But the goal is profit.
Don't be that. Apple decided they're not that. If you make a good product or app that solves a problem and is high quality, then charge accordingly for it. Support it for bugs but save the updates & new features for the next paid version. Don't work for free. Be known as that premium app developer that believes in a good user experience. Not the tool that falls in line with the clueless majority.

One of my favorite foods is cabbage because it's super versatile, has hardly any calories, is free of wheat and gluten, is great for digestion, and is beautiful in color (purple and green). It tastes awesome in salads, gives us valuable probiotics as pickled sauerkraut, plus it works perfectly as a "shell" to be stuffed with yummy fillings to make a delicious hand held treat. I'm currently reintroducing heart-healthy fats into my diet from flax and chia seeds (omega-3), some nuts (vitamin E and antioxidants), and olives to keep my skin supple and moist, especially now that autumn is upon us. I picked up a bunch of avocados at the Farmers' Market, but am disappointed they didn't make it into my bag!
Today, I filled up a red cabbage shell with Chiffonade green cabbage. Watch our "How to Chiffonade" video I shot for Vegetarian Times Magazine: http://www.vegetariantimes.com/video/10). Please watch on the Vegetarian Times website to help generate viewer numbers. Thank you!
I'm also embedding it below from my own YouTube channel:
I first filled up my purple cabbage shell with Chiffonade green cabbage. Next, I layered on a Black Olive Tapenade, from Ani's Raw Food Kitchen, page 155, and Candied Onions, inspired by my Buckwheat-Battered "Fried" Onion Rings, from page 116 of Ani's Raw Food Essentials, plus I added maple syrup to sweeten the onions. I then topped it all with artichoke hearts, and would have added avocado, if I had some on hand.
Black Olive Tapenade
Place all ingredients into food processor, mix well.
Will keep for a week or longer stored in fridge.
Candied Onions
Place all ingredients into mixing bowl. Set aside to marinate and wilt for at least 10 minutes. Add syrup to your liking. I choose to make this sweet! Squeeze excess liquid before using.
Will keep for several days in fridge.
This recipe offers another great way to enjoy greens, and boy do I love dehydrated salad! As a matter of fact, that was exactly how I first discovered Kale Chips, back in Portland, OR, in 1995 or so. After a big catering gig, I had so much marinated kale salad remaining, it would have been a shame to throw it out. Usually, I feed leftovers to Kanga, my pooch, but too much kale's been known to make her poot (stinky!). Instead, I put all the salad into my dehydrators, and was stoked by what I found the next morning! Kale Chips!! It makes me happy to see Kale Chips have gone mainstream today. Finally, a healthy snack enjoyed by the masses!
The texture of these chocolate coated collard leaves is much like the texture of dried cashew cheddar, from my traditional Kale Chips on page 110 of Ani's Raw Food Essentials. (Signed copies of Ani's Raw Food Essentials are available at GoSuperLife.com). Delicate mouth feel, and amazing flavors.
Thanks to everyone for being patient with me, waiting for me to post this recipe after I've completed my next book! Enjoy xo
Chocolate Collards
In high-speed blender, blend all ingredients (except collards) until smooth.
Place collard half leaves into a large bowl, pour chocolate sauce over leaves. Coat each leaf completely.
Place leaves in dehydrator at 104 degrees. Dehydrate for 4 to 6 hours, until dry.

I was invited to the VitaMix headquarters in Cleveland, OH to shoot a 60-minute DVD that will be included in their latest VitaMix Turbo Blend Variable Speed blender. This was a huge honor for me, as you all know how much I love my VitaMix. My family had an early model in our kitchen from the 70s, so I've used the VitaMix my entire life.
The production was shot in a big stadium kitchen where the production crew and VitaMix employees including chefs, food scientists, marketing, and product development filled the stands. I think we shot about 14 or 16 segments in just 2 days! The owner of VitaMix is vegan, so all the recipes are free of dairy and animal products.
Bob Stefanov, the director, was a joy to work with. We had loads of fun and made sure to laugh a lot.
The wonderful team at VitaMix. I am so eager to watch the videos, haven't seen them yet, and friends were telling me they watched it at the VitaMix booth at Expo West last weekend up on a big screen TV. We're planning a big launch at Expo West, so make sure to look for me at the VitaMix booth in March in Anaheim, CA.
The new TurboBlend Variable Speed will be available at natural food stores including Whole Foods Markets. So excited to help launch this new product with VitaMix!!
It was Kanga's 8th 'birthday' and also our anniversary on Labor Day. Each year, I make my darling pooch a heart shaped cake (you may have seen the photo from last year's birthday on page 301 of Ani's Raw Food Essentials). This year, the cake was made with sunflower seeds and a few Medjool dates. Kanga was so eager to eat it, she got green birthday candle wax on the tip of her nose….so cute!
In a blink of an eye, the cake was gone! And, I wonder if you can guess who's in the background with her 'magic' tatoos….hint….London and the UK.
For our birthday ladies' luncheon, I made Jicama Rice, Mexican style by processing Jicama, then adding chopped red bell peppers, onion, corn kernels, cilantro, and a pinch of sea salt. Recipe below…. It was a lunch of British guests, one of whom is a celiac. That means she needs to avoid wheat gluten. I love that about the raw food diet, it's free of wheat, gluten, refined sugar, dairy, and guilt!
I had made myself a beet, parsley, lemon, and cucumber juice earlier that morning, then mixed in the beet pulp with a sunflower pate. I used this pate to stuff poblano peppers, then dehydrated them for a few hours to soften. For a sauce, I blended a simple tahini with lemon juice, salt, splash of water.
This was the dessert my lovely friend Kate Magic made us for dessert! It was made with figs, cacao, coconut, and lucuma…and it was incredible! But this was one course poor Kanga didn't get to try (dogs and cacao don't mix well…chocolate).
Jicama Mexican Rice
Place jicama in food processor, process into small bits. Be careful not to over process. Scoop into mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients, toss to mix well.
Kanga's Birthday Cake
Place sunflower seeds in food processor. Process into small pieces. Add pitted dates, and process. Sunflower will stick together and bind into a cake 'dough'. Form dough into heart, and serve.
Note: Sweets should be served in moderation to dogs, as to humans as well.
If serving to humans or to mix up variations to this recipe, try adding in sea salt, vanilla, cacao / carob, and or goji berries.
I was invited onto FOX in San Diego for a 6-minute segment on the benefits of the raw food diet and to talk about the Sambazon Warrior Up Campaign. I made host Raoul Martinez a few smoothies including a Banana Butter Breeze with Cacao. I planned to make him a Tomato Tarragon Bisque, but ran out of time.

The Gamma Knife Perfexion is actually not a knife, but a treatment that directs 192 beams of radiation to treat brain tumors. Your doctor designs a treatment customized for your brain tumor. Then, the Gamma Knife accurately treats the abnormality in your brain with less damage to the healthy tissue. Gamma Knife is considered the "Gold Standard" for radiosurgery.
The treatment is non-invasive (no incisions) and can be used as an alternative to, or along with conventional surgery. Brain tumors and other problems that were once thought to be inoperable can now be safely and effectively treated. Patients who are poor candidates for conventional surgery due to age, certain health conditions, or an inability to have general anesthesia, may also benefit from Gamma Knife radiosurgery.
Kettering Medical Center and the Wallace-Kettering Neuroscience Institute now offer The Gamma Knife Perfexion. The Gamma Knife Perfexion is the result of more than four decades of extensive research and clinical experience. The Gamma Knife Perfexion at the Wallace-Kettering Neuroscience Institute is the only one in Southwest Ohio and one of only a few in the world.

The book-to-movie adaptation news cycle never lets up these days, does it? Most of us haven't even seen the Hunger Games yet, and already we've seen a teaser for the Breaking Dawn – Part 2 teaser trailer that will be shown before Hunger Games and a trailer for RPattz's Cosmopolis (an adaptation of a very different kind of book by Don DeLillo). There are two more things we're excited for today: People has a couple of stills of Saoirse Ronan and Max Irons in The Host, the sci-fi Stephenie Meyer adaptation whose teaser will also play before HG. And yesterday, Summit launched a little production Tumblr for Ender's Game, the adaptation of the '80s sci-fi/dystopian YA novel by Orson Scott Card, which stars Asa Butterfield, Hailee Steinfeld, Abigail Breslin, Harrison Ford, Viola Davis and Ben Kingsley.
"Most of us read Ender's Game when we were young and wondered when it would become a movie," the producers say in the first blog entry. "We never dreamed then that we would all be part of the team to bring it to the screen, nor did we realize the novel's description of our world would be so prescient that its vision would still be unfolding before our very eyes today. And now, watching Asa bring a character to life who has been on our minds since our youth, we realize things happen for a reason. We were waiting for him."
We'll take those words of wisdom to heart: No matter how impatient we are to see our favorite books make it to the big screen, we'd rather wait until they're done right than see a rush job. And we have to admit, the waiting is kind of fun too.

Environmental code enforcement Officer Tiffany Davis is the driving force behind the demolition of the abandoned and dilapidated buildings that came down Feb. 4-7. The first building was torn down on Plum Street in Haddock and the next was around the corner on Peach Street.
The four other buildings that were demolished were on Aaron Drive, Bowen Hill Road, Joycliff Road, and Bethune Avenue. The estimated cost of the project was $18,700, which does not include the cost of dumping the debris at the landfill.
Davis explained that the process for the demolition of the buildings is not fast. Jones County's Abandoned and Dilapidated Housing ordinance was adopted in 2006, and in 2009 the commissioners voted to allow the complaints to be anonymous, which Davis said was a good move.
Complaints can be made through the code enforcement office or through planning and zoning. After a complaint is received, a building inspector, usually accompanied by Davis, does the first inspection and any code violations found are documented.
Then the property is turned over to her for enforcement of the ordinance.

Yadkin Valley Community Hospital in Yadkinville has welcomed a new CEO to replace the interim CEO who's been in charge while the hospital sorted out its financial woes and looked for a more permanent solution.
Shawn Bright started work as the new CEO at the beginning of December and is already overseeing what he hopes to be positive changes for the hospital.
The most exciting news for the hospital comes with the announcement that its parent company HMC/CAH Consolidated is coming out of bankruptcy and will announce details after the new year.
"When HMC emerges it will be a much better, more efficient company," Bright said.
Further details on the bankruptcy announcement are not available at this time.
Bright said that he first set his sights on the emergency room care the hospital provided when he took over as CEO. His first change was to make sure that only emergency trained physicians were providing care in the hospital's ER.
"We've changed to a different company called Emergency Staffing Solutions, and they staff our ER with just physicians," Bright said. "There are no mid-level staff members back there anymore. We want to rebuild and improve our reputation with the community."
Bright said that he believes the hospital has to work on restoring its reputation in the community and increasing staff and physicians that the community trusts in order to increase volume in all areas of the hospital.
Bright said that the hospital believes it can increase this trust and improve its reputation by offering residents the same quality care they can find in neighboring areas like Winston-Salem and Elkin, but with less wait time.
"We're trying to calculate how long it takes from the time you walk in our door till you get to see a doctor," Bright said. "We want to make sure that process is streamlined and is as smooth as possible. If you go to Winston-Salem you can get bigger and newer facilities but you're going to wait for a while. We want to make sure that when people come here they are going to see a physician quickly and be done more quickly than it would take them to drive to Winston-Salem."
Bright said that he is also working to get a wider variety of specialists and family physicians on staff to offer the community everything it needs without having to venture to another hospital.
Bright said that hospitals are not typically perceived as positive places unless the focus is on the delivery of babies or curing of major diseases, so he is making sure that people can at least experience the best stay possible while they have to be hospitalized.
"Our goal is to get people in and out of the hospital as quickly as possible and to make sure that while they're here it's as pleasant experience as it can be," Bright said. "As we work to improve the trust that the community has in the care that we give then hopefully that will be reflected in our margins."
Bright said that the hospital cannot be successful if it doesn't increase its patient volumes and produce an income.
"We have to have a profit margin and we have to make this hospital into a profitable facility and I believe we can do that by giving good, quality care every time," Bright said.
Bright said that the hospital recently completed its accreditation through the company DNV. This accreditation process is required of all hospitals and Bright said that Yadkin Valley Community Hospital passed accreditation with very high marks.
"Everything went exceptionally well and everyone was very positive about our facility," Bright said. "Those accrediting bodies accredit every facility and they look at all of them under the same standards no matter what the size of the hospital is. This hospital met all of those standards and exceeded a majority of them. We have a really great facility."
The New CEO
Bright is originally from a small town in Alabama. He spent his teenage years working for his hometown hospital as an emergency room technician. He decided that he wanted to pursue a career in the medical field and graduated from the University of Alabama in Birmingham with a degree in respiratory therapy.
He became the director at the hospital he grew up working for and then went on to create his own business. After 10 years he decided to sell the business and return to the medical field.
"I left Alabama and went to Arizona to work in a critical access hospital," Bright said. "I stayed there for a few years working with the administrator at that hospital. When my superior transferred out I also transferred to Florida to work with ACA for a few years in Tampa."
Bright said his former boss from Arizona called and tipped him off about the position in Yadkin County and after extensive research about the community and a visit to the Yadkinville downtown area he knew this is where he wanted to be.
"This, to me, is more like home," Bright said. "I grew up in a small town. I wanted to raise my kids in a small town environment so this was the perfect move for me from Tampa, FL. I want to be active in the community. We are looking for a church to join and I'm trying to get active in organizations like Rotary. Yadkinville is a great town, and I thoroughly enjoy it."

Pounds: BOE SOSWritten by Tom Pounds | President / Publisher | email@example.com
Despite Ohio Secretary of State oversight and investigations, the Lucas County Board of Elections (BOE) has proven itself to be incapable of smoothly running even a low-turnout primary election.
The May 6 election was marked by confusion over paper ballots in District 2, missing data cards, delayed results and, as usual, personal rancor and conflict among BOE members. The removal of former Director Meghan Gallagher seems to have made little difference; it is remarkable that a primary election that draws less than 10 percent participation could stumble so badly.
The contention and Keystone Cop antics that have characterized BOE member Jon Stainbrook's tenure have long since ceased to be funny. The recent hearings conducted by the Secretary of State have done nothing to alleviate the impression that the most sacred of democratic processes is unprotected and vulnerable to mishaps.
There were not many surprises in the election. Incumbent Matt Cherry retained his District 2 Toledo City Council seat over strong candidates Marcia Helman and Bob Vasquez. In the 47th District Ohio House of Representatives race, incumbent Barbara Sears bested challenger Scott Allegrini. Kudos to Allegrini for moving from activist to candidate and we hope to see him run again in the future.
In the Republican state central committee race for the male representative in the 11th Senate District, Bill Delaney defeated county Republican Chairman Stainbrook, a positive and encouraging development, but ousted BOE Director Gallagher kept her committee seat over Diana Skaff.
The Secretary of State is clearly aware of the Lucas County BOE's shortcomings and is taking steps to document its foibles. But it will take more than investigation and discussion to clean up the mess; it will take a clean sweep of the BOE to give Lucas County voters, as few of them as there are, confidence in the election process.
Perhaps a clean start and renewed faith in the process will lead to increased participation from candidates and voters.
Thomas F. Pounds is president and publisher of Toledo Free Press. Contact him at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Clarence Savage, a 70 year old from Antlers, was transported by Eagle Med Air Ambulance to Parkland Hospital in Dallas after a collision that happened west of Grant in Choctaw County. Savage was listed in critical condition with head and trunk injuries.
On Friday, Feb. 1, 2013, Savage was driving a 1997 Mercury south on HWY 271 when a 2007 International Semi, being driven by William Treese of Missouri, made an unsafe left hand turn in front of Savage.
Savage's vehicle struck the Semi in the middle of the trailer. Savage and passenger, Louise Jones (62 years old of Antlers) were trapped for approximately 40 minutes before being freed by the Hugo Fire Department's Jaws of Life.
Jones was also transported by Eagle Med to Parkland in Dallas. Jones was listed in critical condition with head, arm and trunk injuries.
Treese refused treatment at the scene.

Flowrestling is a strong brand in the wrestling community and I know they will provide excellent coverage of our marquee event."

Flowrestling will have four cameras covering selected matches throughout the day, with full coverage of the quarterfinals beginning at 6:30 p.m. (E.D.T).

"Coach Eslinger has done an amazing job building this tournament into a can't-miss event. It was a no brainer for Flowrestling to partner with UTC athletics and its wrestling team to showcase the event. We are beyond excited about watching Penn State, Oklahoma State, Minnesota, Cornell, Mizzou and many other top programs battle for team and individual titles at the Southern Scuffle."
For those interested in attending the Southern Scuffle, presented by Defense Soap, tickets are on sale now on GoMocs.com or by calling the UTC Ticket Office at (423) 266-MOCS (6627).

again, I want to be able to ask for score updates for baseball :) or find the latest news
Rumor: iOS 5.0.2 around the corner to re-address battery issues, iOS 5.1 coming soon with Siri enhancements
Coming as a surprise to no one -- we hope -- Macerkopf.de says Apple is working hard on iOS 5.0.2 and iOS 5.1 beyond that. iOS 5.0.2 should address battery life issues that remained following the iOS 5.0.1 release and it's initial batch of battery fixes. iOS 5.1, they say, will bring some new features to Siri, including the ability to take pictures and video, and toggle Bluetooth, Wi-Fi.
Here's to hoping for another beta release in the coming days, and a full release soon after!

Rumor: iOS 5.0.2 around the corner to re-address battery issues, iOS 5.1 coming soon with Siri enhancements
again, I want to be able to ask for score updates for baseball :) or find the latest news
But it would be great if somebody (at Apple) finally paid some attention to this WIFI connection bug:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3381610?start=0&tstart=0
Nearly 30,000 views but still no acknowlodgement from apple.
mine works fine smoothly as well
I hope they let Siri start apps!
I most be part of the exceptions but so far I haven't seen anything wrong with my battery since I purchased my 4S
Same here Ben, actually coming from Android, I have been well pleased with my Battery life!
I initially had problems with the "set time zone" system function (like many others), but once I disabled that I can't say I've noticed any battery problems on my 4S. It's no worse than the 4 and lasts 3-4 days if I don't use it much. I don't get anywhere near apple's claimed 200 hours (8 days) though. But then I didn't with my iPhone 4 under iOS 4 either.
I too am having major issues, I'm going to the apple store this week to try and get a new phone or battery. Mine lasts 5 hours with Siri, location services and push notifications off. It gets way better battery life of wifi (near twice as long) on 3G especial low signal I can literally watch the bar drain. Evern if it is sitting in my desk doing nothing it drains.
The brand new antenna system is the reason !!
You've had 5 Iphones? Sounds like by all the rukkus you put on trying to get yours to work, you would have learned enough to just EXCHANGE IT!
I think I am one of the minority. White iPhone 4s on the sprint network, bought in the 1st batch (pre-ordered) Battery life is excellent! I unplug my phone at around 8am and use it heavily throughout the day, phone calls, games, texting, FB, pictures, youtube etc and I don't recharge it until around 11pm on most days! Even at that time I still have 20 to 22% battery life!
nope, make that majority. ;)
824 replies out of which there are others who have posted more than once, plus there are those who are discussing the issue without having one, Id say its about 400 people out of 5 million units sold. As I said before minority ;) get over to Apple Store and get a new one. As Concealdcarried said , you should know by now after 5 iphones how to get one that works if yours isnt working ;)
sweet! Dying for the siri controllable bt and wifi!
I'm not having any noticeable battery problems anymore. Although I have never had my mail pushed for battery reasons. Not even when I was a windows mobile user.
Id push your mail for you anytime ! :) lol
I'm not having any noticeable battery problems anymore. Although I have never had my mail pushed for battery reasons. Not even when I was a windows mobile user.
You want to watch REAL battery drain? Get a Droid. I've noticed a little more battery drain, but nothing to get crazy about. Or perhaps you can get a Juicepak?
I have had better battery life on my 4S since the 5.0.1 update. I will also admit that my iPhone 4 battery did last longer but nothing two crazy. For the faster processor, better camera and Siri I don't mind the difference in battery. Btw apple will never be down working on improving their software when working with new hardware. People make a bigger deal about it because of how big apple is
I have noticed a significant decrease in battery performance since the last update. My phone can't even make it through the day now with minimal use. Horrible.
don't forget about the crazy wifi problems. i sure hope this next update makes it better, not worsehttps://discussions.apple.com/thread/3381610?start=0&tstart=0
seems like ur done was jailbroken, sorry!

The Tombstone, the Unveiling, and Visiting the Grave
Customs surrounding the Jewish grave show honor toward the deceased and reflect the teaching that all are equal in death.
By Barbara Binder Kadden
We Also Recommend
Reprinted with permission from Teaching Jewish Life Cycle: Insights and Activities (A.R.E. Publishing, Inc.).
Since ancient times, it has been the custom to mark the grave with a stone or monument. After Rachel died, "Jacob erected a monument on Rachel's grave" (Genesis 35:20). The marker or monument serves to identify the grave so that relatives will find it when they visit, honor the memory of the deceased, and identify a place of burial so that kohanim (priests) will avoid it as required by Jewish law.
Jewish tradition makes no stipulation as to the size or type of marker or monument, but most cemeteries have specific guidelines. The Jewish teaching that all are equal in death often serves as a guide to choosing an appropriate headstone.
The marker usually includes: the English and Hebrew name of the deceased, the dates of birth and death in English and Hebrew, and the relationship to other family members (i.e., father/mother, husband/wife, grandfather/grandmother, sister/ brother, etc.). Also, one often finds the Hebrew letters pay nun, standing for "po nikbar(ah), here is buried," and the letters tav, nun, tzadee, bet, hay, standing for the phrase "May his/her soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life."
It is customary for the grave marker to be put in place and for an unveiling ceremony to be held after the Kaddish period [11 months for parents and 30 days for other close relatives] is over, but no later than one year after the death. While many families wait until almost the full year has passed to do the unveiling, it may be done sooner; in Israel the stone is usually placed soon after sheloshim [the first 30 days of mourning].
The unveiling ceremony consists of the recitation of Psalms, a very brief eulogy encapsulating the most salient characteristics of the deceased, removing the cloth covering the headstone, the El Maleh Rahamim [God full of compassion–a prayer], and the Mourner's Kaddish [a prayer in praise of God recited by mourners]. Traditionally, Kaddish is not recited aloud if no minyan [quorum of 10] is present.

Fantastic idea. Nate vs Melvin. Although I can see Nate turning since its not really top contender fight
Fantastic idea. Nate vs Melvin. Although I can see Nate turning since its not really top contender fight
Nate already choked Melvin out once. No point for a rematch.
I am undoubtedly the biggest, if not only, Maynard fan on this forum. I would love nothing more then to see him come back and start smashing people but, I think when your chin goes it's time to hang up the gloves. I'd like to see him walk away while he's still healthy, open a gym and focus on his new family.
My Favorite Fighters
1)Gray Maynard 2)Dan Henderson 3)Minotauro Nogueira 4)Wanderlei Silva 5)Roy Nelson 6)Tim Boetsch 7)Mark Hunt 8)Shogun Rua 9)Lyoto Machida 10) Connor McGregor
Too bad Niinimäki's fight was dropped into the undercard and some poor women's fights were shown instead. That was some pretty slick grappling
Favourite fighters: Mark Hunt, Tom Niinimäki and Anton Kuivanen
Rematches happen in combat sports regardless of how a competitor lost to another. It happens when you have a matchmaking system based rank above hype and profit.
I missed the fight... does anybody have a GIF or a video of the TKO?
Thanks in advance...
Nate put a good old beating on grey

It was close to sundown and something not-so-scary was lurking in the dark. Under the roof of the Orlando Science Center, families saw spiderwebs on the walls, spiders hanging from the ceiling and candy stations around every corner. Kids screamed not with terror, but with joy for the Wall of Dare, face painting tables and the chance to get scabs and warts. Members started to freeze, as the trick-or-treaters were, for the most part, treated to fun only the Science Center could provide.
For this was Spooktacular - a night where members could enjoy science-themed Halloween activities from the safety of their favorite Science Center. Check out the photos from the ninth annual event!

Had to put the pills in peanut butter to get them to eat them, but that works well. Did not solve the problem ""forever"" about two weeks after stopping treatment -- one of our dogs was back at it. But at this price -- if I have to feed them STOP pills daily forever to never smell doggy poopy breath again, it is well worth the price."
Good product with healthy ingredients. My GSD had this issue. I started with this product and she stopped this behavior long enough for me to start her on a healthier dog food, Orijen. After breaking her habit(with this product) + finding a quality food that meets her nutritional desires she has quit stool eating and no longer needs this product. When needed this worked quickly + safely. If the food change hadnt worked I would have kept her on this.
