Food supplements are concentrated sources of nutrients or nutritious foods that have a specific physiological effect on the body. It has been mentioned that the American diet has increasingly become energy-rich but nutrient-poor; meaning basically that the foods eaten on a daily basis are not much more than empty calories. The 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that consumers replace some foods in their diets with more nutrient-dense options to help improve the nutrient-to-energy ratio. The terms energy-dense and nutrient-poor are commonly used to characterize foods perceived as unhealthy and to distinguish them from options that are more nutritious. Negative terms, such as junk foods or empty calories, are commonly used in antithesis to such descriptors as healthful or part of a complete, nutritious diet.

However, a review of the literature shows that the concept of a nutritious food is not based on any consistent standards or criteria. In many cases, healthful foods are defined by the absence of problematic ingredients (fat, cholesterol, sugar and sodium) rather than by the presence of any beneficial nutrients they might contain, such as vitamins, minerals, green foods, high ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) antioxidants, enzymes and healthful bacterium. Given the current dietary trends, eating nutrient-dense foods is an approach that can be considered a valuable tool for nutrition education and dietary guidance. By providing nutrient-dense options in the form of food supplements, seniors who have dentures, individuals recovering from trauma/surgery or even teenagers who are going through a growth spurt can obtain ideal nutrition even if the diet is less than optimal. Generally, food supplements are in specified potencies contained in a variety of dosage forms (powder, tablet, caplet, softgel or vegetable capsule).

Soy products, a subset of food supplements, have played an important role in the traditional diet of numerous cultures throughout the world for many centuries. Extracted from soybeans, soy provides vitamins, minerals and high-quality protein and is relatively low in fat, which makes soy an excellent and complete source of protein for human consumption. Soy products, such as lecithin, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine, are also an excellent source of phospholipids, which are a major constituent of cell membranes and are important for the maintenance and repair of cellular structures. Phospholipids increase the communication between cells in the body by acting as natural emulsifiers (compounds that help keep fats suspended in a liquid environment), thereby, enhancing the cells' ability to communicate within the liquid environments of the blood and other cellular fluids.

Furthermore, soy is also a unique dietary source of many potent phytonutrients, one of which is called isoflavones. Several isoflavones found in soy are genistein, daidzein and glycitein. Isoflavones have a chemical structure that is not unlike the estrogen found in humans. Intake of isoflavones may help maintain hormonal health by binding to the same receptors estrogen utilizes. Isoflavones are also natural antioxidants. They neutralize harmful oxygen free radicals, thereby, maintaining healthy cells and tissues. Genistein, followed by daidzein, are the most potent antioxidants of the isoflavone family, as well as beneficial in helping to maintain bone, heart, prostate and women's hormonal health.

Just The Way You Are Lyrics

Artist: Various Artists
Album: Voices From the Fifa World Cup 2006

Just The Way You Are

Don't go changing, to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I wouldn't leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
What will it take 'till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you.

I said I love you, and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are.

Skyzoo – Boat Check In lyrics

It makes it easy, you, easier to play!
Back at it, back where it started at,
No it started with me just tagging people beats
Put my twist and do what I do,
And Frisbee this and Frisbee that
Done a couple here and there,
Take it back to it!
Yeah,... Yeah, ok, yeah ok,
Sitting in a darker bay like I was placing Ottis,
Phones turned off, I ain't taking colors,
They say when I rap they expect sun, moon, stars and jump to the car,
But I'm just trapped in the corner,
Making... Let me box some,
Too big for applause, the chicken... You smell the...
I'm three piece on the beat...
Rob a bank signature I don't do it for me,
I do it for the liquor store, I'm as sure as it be,
Truthfully... I'm just trying to get across Rosary Beat Rap
I'm just trying to get across, know that the feedback is all that they was living for,
Live in proof like I made it out...
Ambition for the broads...
... But I don't see no picture, so I'm leaving...
Cal a fly guy...
Cocktail rappers get a Molotov sedative,
While you waved... In the way and no patience,
... Welcome to...
The Freebees have never been higher,
Scream and catch them if you can at the head of Goliath
Thinking I was from Harlem...
... But I'm from the same background you've seen in my videos,
I shot 'em all in my block, brought you in my home,
... They might want 'em, cause he ain't got the stomach to hustle like...
But me, I'm from where we open the fire...
Put a cannon on the front of what we had and behind him,
But see him speeding up will make you leave from the...
You wanna be in a car, they respect if you can drive
I can't change who I'll be, not in a...
I'm here for the G money...
I'm here for the A money and a sweet bitch,

So I need the paper, the broads already been there,
And none of them is living unless is to buy swim wear.
Automatically I was given a top ten...
Or better yet took it, wait until he was looking and... Whatever,
Read... It was never safe, so I reload forever!
... Sitting on the dark of the ray...

Waking The Cadaver – Connoisseur's Of Death lyrics

My thoughts control me.
I can't hold back any longer,
I must commit these acts,
My fantasies compel me,
Planning this perfect crime.
I have studied your surroundings for months now.
I know exactly when to make my move, and exactly how I'm going to make my move.
A perfect murder to me is all about strategy,
So unaware as I stalk flawlessly,
Repeatedly in my dreams I have pulled this job.

In front of the mirror as you prepare for sleep,
This is when I sneak behind and put the barrel of the shotgun to your head,
I like it when you see my face.

A blow to the skull, I make sure your still alive.
I only kill quick when necessary, but this is a score I must settle.
Now is when my fantasies come, so I reach for my blade
Inflicting this mutilation, slashing your face, stomping your body,
I love to see you in such pain, for this pain is my extasy.
Suck the barrel, and look at me in the eye,
Do you think I really give a fuck about what I'm going to do?
Decapitated by 12 gauge slugs, I can't even recognize half your body anymore.
Your family will probably tell the authorities I'm a suspect,
So I eliminated them before I eliminated you,
Dragging you to the basement, I place you with the rest,
Nude, in perverted positions with your loved ones.
Fiendishly I masturbate to the scene I have created,
The investigators are going to be shocked.
My payoff, my crime gets televised,
Overwhelmed with laughter as I realize,
They'll never catch me

The Black Dahlia Murder — Deathmask Divine lyrics

Removal of the eyes gives my heart a saddened chill
I preserve them in formaldehyde
To gaze upon at will
How their greenish flecks befill me
That starlit winters night
How I lost all that I ever was
While locked within their sight
Before you sits a broken man
Your fragile pinkish heart in hand
Peculiar how it can hurt so bad
While love is only in the mind
I sew the gaping chestwork
Each thread is made with love
The bosom where I would rest my face
Is covered in your blood
This is not the end
You'll live on eternally
Lord it's not the end
My secret you'll forever be
I interrupt this transformation
A familiar lust swelling in me
A long and soulful kiss
The shades are drawn the living world can't see
The coil of entrails
How curious the smell
So pungent to my eager nostrils
Hands further compelled
No it's not the end
Forever you'll be in my arms
I could never let you go
My darling cold and blue
I wonder are you dreaming still
Spread eagle blood removed
I weave the sucking trocar
Beneath your bruising skin
Tonight I'll lay beside you darling in necromantic sin
Pinned to the bed sheets like a prized butterfly
You're mine
I hear your voice so precious echoing deeply inside
I did my best to love you
While you did live and breathe
This tender taxidermy
Trophy of the bereaved
[ Lyrics from: ]

Myself not being a technical man are you saying that changing the gears makes really very little difference on the overall result. Like you said in the first few hundreds it's more noticeable but this advantage doesn't grow to anything like the advantage some here believe it can be.

Take two cars for example the E63 and the M5, both have 7 gears and both roughly produce the same power but their really difference is in the amount of torque and at what revs. From what you are saying would I be right in thinking that the E63 should be able to pulls daylight between it and the M5 based on the fact it has more torque regardless of where it is produced.

I have always had a problem understanding what some more technical guys here have said that it not the amount that is important but where it's produced. Surely that is determined by the gearbox and gearing as each car roughly makes the same speed in each gear or there abouts.

Please can someone explain this in to layman terms for us thickies.

    Useful Ram Question
    Hi All,

    I have a late 2009 iMac which has as standard 2 X 2Gb or ram installed.

    I am looking to upgrade to 2 X 4Gb but I have been told it will only actually use 2Gb and would not use the remaining 2Gb on each card?

    Is this correct or not?

    If you own a late 2009 iMac, it must either be a 21.5" or 27" model. In which case the maximum amount of memory for both machines is 16 GB.

    However, the early and mid 2009 models all have a maximum memory of 8 GB. So which model do you have?

    In any event which ever model you own, you can use 2 x 4 GB modules for a total of 8 GB. All the info I provided here is taken from Mactracker which is usually correct.

    linsys network question
    I'm very new to wireless internet. I just got a new powerbook and imac. At home, both are connected to my network over an airport extreme router.

    When I take my powerbook anywhere, I can connect to the internet via "linksys" network in my airport pulldown.

    I'm just curious as to what it is and how i'm actually connecting.

The result is unparalleled brightness and extremely sharp resolution across the entire visual field.

iPhone for $199? Not So Fast Says AT&T

iPhone for $199? Not So Fast Says AT&T

Gizmodo spoke with AT&T and found out that the mobile carrier will require current AT&T customers to be eligible for an upgrade before they'll hand over the iPhone 3G at its subsidized price.

Unlike the current iPhone, that was unsubsidized, the iPhone 3G will be treated like any other mobile device the carrier sells. So what is the unsubsidized price of the iPhone 3G? AT&T isn't saying, or doesn't know.

Currently, AT&T allows customers to upgrade after two-years of service. Certain customers can upgrade sooner if they meet certain criteria. Such as, you have a calling plan that costs at least $68.99 a month but no more than $98.99 a month and have ben in contract for 21 months without an upgrade,

A standard calling plan plus data service costing $99 or more a month, and haven't upgraded in the last 12 months.
A customer with a calling plan with data service of less than $69 who is 21 to 23 months into their contract may upgrade for a fee and new two-year commitment.

Okay, who's confused?

If you have AT&T, sign in to your online account and you can check your eligibility for an upgrade, or when you will be eligible.

My dad always said, "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is." I was wondering how it was possible to sell an 8g iPhone 3G at $199, while the 8g iPod Touch is still at $299. I was hoping that we might see a revamp of the Touch with the new design and lower prices in the near future. But nope. Now I know . . . hefty contract prices at AT&T, major, major downpayment for people with not so sterling credit, higher data costs. The $199 isn't as good a deal as it sounds. Oh well, as much as I like the iPhone, I don't want to be held to AT&T's monthly contracts. And I certainly don't want to pay the unbelievably hefty cost for pre-paid, poor credit customers just to express my iPhone love. Back to my old LG for the time being.

I considered buying an iPhone, since I've had AT&T for @ 4 years and have almost 6,000 anytime minutes accrued. However, I'm not willing to shell out a minimum of $200 for an iPhone and then pay a minimum of $70.00/month to use it.

Obviously, there are a lot of people out there who either make a hell of a lot more money than I do or simply don't mind paying $840.00/year for phone service (not to mention all the taxes they pile on to all of these service plans).

You have to give Apple and AT&T credit, though, if Ma Bell had charged those kinds of prices back when, all hell would have broken loose. Instead, people seem to be falling all over themselves to feed the capitalist money bags. Go figure -

Does anyone REALLY believe that either Apple or AT&T is going to offer a shiny, new, faster iPhone for anywhere close to what the old one cost? Both companies exist for solely one purpose. To make money. That's it, nothing else. Now, if you were them, and had the hottest tech gadget going right now, how would you handle it?

Apple sleeps with AT&T, makes a deal, and all the sudden, the world lines up waiting to hand over more money than they should be.

Now, AT&T subsidizes the new iPhone, sells it cheaper, but then nails you for a premium service fee cause you want the iPhone, and that ends up being more money for AT&T's pocket. You'd think that would be enough (price of new iPhone + extra $10/month = more $ than original iPhone), but it isn't. Fees here and there, any where that AT&T can find to get more of our money. Apple and AT&T have engineered this from day one to be the biggest money suck I've seen in a long time. and we (yes, including me, but only when the new phone hits 32 GB), will line up with our pockets open and salivating and bent over cause it's the IPHONE.

I love Apple's products, I've even been referred to on more than one occasion as an "Apple whore", but as a company, I list them as one of the most unscrupulous (?) corporate machines ever. I can't stand the fact that I feed that corporate machine as much as I do. As far as AT&T goes, they've always been on that list. I swore I'd never go back to AT&T, but Apple had something to say about that. The underlying problem is that I didn't have a choice in the matter, other than giving up my personal goal of having an iPhone. Apple made that decision for me. This is WRONG.

The iPhone is flawed. But not the phone itself, Apple flawed a good thing by making this deal with AT&T. And who gets screwed because of that flaw...?

That's right, YOU and ME, the people who are making all this money making possible.

I've been wondering about all this. I'm a new AT&T customer (lost my old Verizon phone; was out of contract & didn't want to start a new term there, but needed a new phone.) Since Apple has heavily advertised the "$199" factor, I was thinking, cool, I'll just sign up with AT&T with a cheapie phone now, then walk into an Apple store in July, change to the "iPhone plan" and pick up the phone for $199. Only in the tiniest of print does Apple say on the website "Requires new 2-year AT&T rate plan, sold separately." NEW plan. Since I got a freebie ATT phone a couple of months ago as part of a new 2-year contract, now I realize (duh) that--even though I'll be switching to a more expensive plan--they'll never give me the phone for $199. I wonder how they will handle situations like this. (Pay a pro-rated amount for the old phone; $199 for iPhone? Higher price for the new iPhone?) Ugh.

Imagine Engine

The subsidized price of $199.99 for an 8 GB HSPA iPhone or $299.99 for a 16 GB HSPA iPhone is very reasonable considering what other manufacturers are charging carriers for their smartphones such as the Blackberry 8310 Curve, Motorola Q9H, Nokia N95, Palm Treo 750, etc. Also Americans shouldn't be complaining about having a 2 year contract with AT&T as some countries such as Canada will require a 3 year contract to get the same pricing that AT&T is selling for and have a higher ECF (aka: ETF). The ECF on a Voice and Data plan with Rogers here in Canada is $500.00. Though with Rogers the hardware upgrade program is available to customers every 12 months unless on a corporate/business account with EPP (Employee Price Plan) then it's every 24 months.

what vlan2k says is correct. According to our online profile our 1st gen iphones are both eligible for upgrades at any time. Makes sense, considering they were not subsidized. However, I'm expecting to be locked in for the standard two years with no upgrade if I buy the 199 iphone.

It's clear that AT&T is not looking for your loyalty as a customer by treating new ones better than existing ones. They have you locked up for 2 years and put your interests on the back burner in favor of courting new customers.

Actually, AT&T is treating existing customers fairly. Think about it, people who are under a current contract have subsidized phones in which AT&T paid upfront. Current iPhone users were never subsidized and therefore their contracts will become null and void upon renewing with a 3G contract. So it is logical that AT&T would not afford the same pricing to previous subsidized customers.

It depends on what they charge existing customers. My understanding is that all iphones will require a 2 year contract. If they charge existing customers an extra $200 AND require that they extend their contract two years, then it's not really fair IMO. For example, I become eligible for an upgrade in February. Why should I have to extend my contract if I'm paying full price for the iphone? I'm not getting another subsidy, my contract should end when my previous subsidy ends (February).

What's new here is not the contact terms. What's new is the malarkey surrounding the ballyhooed price reduction to $199. There is no price reduction!

Apple & AT&T have merely engineered is really a large shift from initial purchase price to higher carrier rates. AT&T pays Apple more per phone & recovers it from the customer. I've read that the new iPhone's data plan will increase $10 a month for plain folks, and more for corporations. That's $240 on top of the $199 initial outlay over the life of the contract. It's like leasing a car except you don't have return it at the end of the lease period.

This is not unique to AT&T. They all build in a service contract to the price of their phones. Usually you can pay more, $50 to $100 more, to halve your contract life but I haven't heard if AT&T will offer this on the iPhone or at what price.

Cingular / ATT was great in my eyes until I got an IPHONE and they started pecker blocking my IPHONE needs... or wants... I think i will switch fo sho if another carrier gets the iphone eventually ... :/

Talked to an AT&T rep today. It's official... ANY current iPhone user, regardless of how long they've had a contract, will qualify for the subsidized iPhone 3G.

So stop panicking and start planning to camp outside the nearest AT&T store the night of the 10th.

read later en Weekend Recap: Reactr, Facebook Read Later, Padcaster Mini, RIP MacFixIt

According to the calendar, it looks like a wrap on the month of March, but we've got one final round of news from the weekend to share with you before we're all subjected to the madness of April Fool's Day on Tuesday. Today's recap is a fairly eclectic mix, so enough of our yakking, let's dive and get to the good stuff!

Reactr Nudges Friends to Actually View What You Send

Do you like to send photos and videos to friends, but are frustrated that they never respond? A new app called Reactr for iOS and Android not only nudges recipients for feedback, it actually captures the reaction and sends it back to you. Available free on the App Store for iPhone, Reactr aims to make it easy and fun to snap photos or videos and select the type of reaction you're hoping for. Your friend will receive a push notification that the message has arrived, then capture their reaction while viewing your message. But don't worry: Viewers have complete control over their own privacy, so responses won't be sent unless they first approve them.

Facebook Reportedly Testing New Read Later Feature

TechCrunch is reporting that social networking giant Facebook could soon unveil a new feature called Save, another attempt at a built-in "read later" service similar to Instapaper, Pocket or Readability. The feature is said to have been created using a pool of talent acquired from Spool two years ago, and has popped on and off the radar over the last couple of years. According to screenshots obtained by TechCrunch, saved articles will appear in a separate section of a Facebook user's profile, where they can be read later, presumably from the desktop or mobile devices. The social network had no comment on the leak, and it's unclear if and when Facebook will ever get around to an official debut of the feature.

Padcaster Mini Follows Up Kickstarter Campaign with Preorders

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign that saw nearly 200 backers rally to raise $23,000, The Padcaster has announced that its $99 Padcaster Mini Kit for iPad mini is now available to preorder. Like its big brother, Padcaster Mini makes a convenient way to mount an iPad mini on a tripod and connect lights, microphones and all kinds of other gadgets -- including custom lenses -- to it for podcasting. The company hoped to raise $15,000 on Kickstarter, so the additional funds have helped whisk the project out of the research and development phase and straight into manufacturing, with delivery estimated at six to eight weeks from order date.

CNET Closes Up Shop on MacFixIt Site

As noted by journalist Ted Landau's Slanted Viewpoint blog last week, it appears that CNET has closed up shop on popular Mac troubleshooting website MacFixIt. Landau began the website in 1996, eventually selling it to TechTracker in 2000 before finding a home within CNET's ranks in 2007. Sadly, after 18 years, the site is no more, and the domain name now simply redirects to a generic CNET Computers portal instead. The last editor of MacFixIt, Topher Kessler, has moved on to launch a new website called MacIssues, which hopes to carry on with the storied tradition of the previous venture.

Pocket Adds One-Click Save from Firefox

The folks at Pocket announced a new way to save web content from Firefox 28 and up, with the capability of saving articles, videos or webpages in a single click. The new add-on was developed in conjunction with Mozilla using their new Social API, offering a "fast, lightweight" extension that nicely matches the one that already exists for Safari, Chrome and Opera. That includes the ability to add tags to help organize content as it's added, rather than dumping everything into one account and having to sort it out later. Firefox users on one of the latest versions can download and install the new Pocket add-on right from the blog post, so click away and get saving!

Fans of "read later" services Pocket and Readability will be overjoyed to hear that both services have made some big announcements this week, including the debut of a "smarter" Pocket for iPhone and iPad now available.

Pocket announced Wednesday that its free, universal iOS app has hit version 5.0 with the promise of a "smarter, more dynamic" read later service complete with streamlined navigation and search.

Available now for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad and coming November 20 to Android devices, Pocket 5.0 introduces Highlights, a feature which intelligently gathers already saved content and presents them in a new way, sorted by Best Of, Trending, Long Reads and Short Reads.

But that's not all: Pocket now adapts to and learns from your specific interests, then uses Highlights as a way to discover content that might otherwise be forgotten. The update also offers more streamlined navigation, while Pocket Preferences uses the topics, sites and authors you save most in other apps such as Zite and Hack Later.

Pocket isn't the only read later service in the spotlight this week -- Readability also had some of its own announcements Wednesday with the debut of Recommendations, a new method for sharing articles with others and allowing them to do the same.

 is also receiving a long overdue makeover which now utilizes the same Hoefler & Frere-Jones fonts used on the company's mobile apps -- and yes, the existing iPhone and iPad app will soon be updated with Recommendations and "a boatload of other great things," but there's no word on exactly when that will arrive.

In the meantime, the new is rolling out gradually to existing users, but those eager to try Recommendations can send a tweet to be bumped to the top of the list; full details are on the website.

Why should the iPhone have all the fun? New Instapaper owner Betaworks has debuted the latest version of the popular read-later app, which now brings feature parity with the iPad even as rival Pocket teases their next big version.

The Instapaper Blog announced Wednesday the release of Instapaper 5.1 for iOS, a free update to the universal app which gives some much-needed love to the iPad version thanks to a redesign.

Instapaper 5.1 carries over features recently introduced to the iPhone and iPod touch, including new sort and filter options, better parsing and organization of videos, a new Browse section to discover editorial and social articles, additional article options when swiping, and the ability pull to refresh.

But why stop there? All iOS devices will now enjoy an even darker dark mode in response to user feedback, a slimmer scroll bar while in article view, and improved accessibility.

And just in time, because competing read-later service Pocket announced Wednesday they'll be delivering "a whole new way for you to experience" the service next week, without really divulging much in the way of details.

Pocket fans and readers who live in San Francisco might even have a shot at joining the company for breakfast next Wednesday, Nov. 13, by signing up for a shot at a ticket to see what the news is all about.

After running the original "read later" service virtually on his own since 2008, Instapaper creator Marco Arment has sold a majority stake to the very same company that rescued social aggregator Digg.

Developer Marco Arment announced on his blog Thursday that popular "read later" service Instapaper is now in the hands of Betaworks, a company best known to readers for its recent resurrection of Digg.

"I’m happy to announce that I’ve sold a majority stake in Instapaper to Betaworks," Arment writes. "We’ve structured the deal with Instapaper’s health and longevity as the top priority, with incentives to keep it going well into the future. I will continue advising the project indefinitely, while Betaworks will take over its operations, expand its staff, and develop it further."

Betaworks confirmed the news on its own website, where it is now encouraging Instapaper lovers to join the company's OpenBeta program for the opportunity to get early access to the "new" Instapaper.

Born in 2008 as what Arment calls "a very basic web app," Instapaper has become a favorite thanks to its combination of a "read later" bookmarklet capable of syncing clean, ad-free text to the web, iOS and most recently, Android devices as well.

For those who fear change and are concerned that Instapaper will vanish as a result of the acquisition, Arment says relax -- the service is in capable hands.

"Instapaper needs a new home where it can be staffed and grown, but I didn’t want to give it to a big company that would probably just shut it down in six months," the Instapaper creator concludes.

It's taken them long enough, but e-tailer Amazon is finally launching an offensive against "read later" services such as Instapaper and Pocket, allowing readers to add articles to their Kindle with a click from most anywhere.

Amazon's Kindle Daily Post has announced that it's making it easy for web publishers to add a "Send to Kindle" button to their websites, with The Washington Post, TIME and popular blog Boing Boing among the first to implement the service.

"Have you ever encountered news, blogs, articles and other content on the web that you want to read but don't have time to do so immediately?" the blog post queries. "The Send to Kindle Button lets you easily send that content to your Kindle to read later, at your convenience. Just send once and read everywhere on any of your Kindle devices or free Kindle reading apps for iPhone, iPad and Android phones or tablets."

That should sound quite familiar to users of services like Instapaper and Pocket, who have been serving up content in the exact same way almost since the iPhone debuted. To Amazon's credit, however, Send to Kindle has existed on the Mac, PC, Chrome and Firefox for quite some time as well.

Have a website and want to offer a Send to Kindle button on it? Amazon is offering it free for web publishers, with a separate plugin also available for WordPress blogs.

It's human nature to want to be first, especially when the stakes are high, such as winning a big race or walking on the Moon. But milestones are also important for software developers, especially when competitors continue to claim otherwise.

Instapaper creator Marco Arment posted a blog Thursday entitled "The First Read-Later Service" which examines the timeline between his service launching in January, 2008 and competitor Pocket (formerly Read It Later) doing the same months later.

Arment's frustration stems from Pocket's continued insistence that they were the first kind of "read later" service to allow users to save web articles for later reading. Although they debuted as a Firefox extension in November, 2007 -- a mere two months prior to Instapaper blasting onto the scene -- Arment notes the solution had "no web service, no sync and no support for other browsers."

The lack of multiple browser and device support, sync, text extraction and formatting and offline saving is exactly why Arment feels that Pocket's claims are "extremely misleading, or simply false, to say that Read It Later/Pocket was 'the first save-for-later service'."

Pocket debuted in October, 2008 as Read It Later, complete with web sync, bookmarklets for additional browsers and offline saving -- all features Instapaper had rolled out much earlier that year

"For Pocket to repeatedly state the opposite -- that they were the first service like this, and that Instapaper followed their lead -- is over the line, and I won’t sit here quietly and let that go unchallenged," Arment concludes.

If you have an aversion to web browsers for offline reading -- and who can blame you? -- you'll be happy to hear that the service formerly known as Read It Later is now available on the Mac App Store.

Pocket announced the availability of a Mac application on Thursday morning, available free in the Mac App Store.

"Today we’re thrilled to introduce a brand new app on our next supported platform: Pocket for Mac," the company's blog announced. "We brought everything you love about our iOS and Android apps -- offline access, distraction-free reading, streaming video, and more -- into a beautiful app that is optimized for Mac."

Pocket's Mac edition is essentially a stripped-down version of Michael Schneider's popular Read Later app, but without the Instapaper half of the equation. Schneider joined the Pocket team to create the new Mac app, and has no plans for future updates to Read Later, which will continue to work just fine.

Pocket for Mac is a 4.4MB download available free from the Mac App Store and requires OS X 10.7 or higher and a 64-bit processor.

While it's not exactly a direct rival for the likes of Instapaper or Pocket, social networking giant Facebook is rolling out a new feature that allows both mobile and desktop users to save stories for later reading.

The Verge is reporting that Facebook has begun rolling out the ability to save wall posts and other stories for later consumption, a step toward the features popularized by "read later" services such as Instapaper, Pocket and Readability.

"New! Press and hold anywhere on a story to save it for later," a pop-up in the iOS app reads once a user's account has added the feature. "Click Saved in your Favorites when you're ready to view it."

Thankfully, Facebook makes it clear that saved stories are private, so you won't have to worry about saving something embarrassing and having it shared with everyone on your friends list. Also, saved stories appear across all devices, be they mobile or desktop.

Speaking of desktop, the feature is also making its way to full-fledged computers, where it will appear as a small "Save" link right alongside other options such as Like, Comment and Share.

We're not seeing the feature appearing yet on our end, but it should be rolling out to everyone over the next few days.

“Read later” services have revolutionized the consumption of website pages in a clean, easy to read format -- but what if you want to collect a group of web pages and bundle it into one handy e-book style package? Readlists comes to the rescue.

Arc90 Lab in conjunction with Readability have announced “a new experiment” from its labs on Tuesday called Readlists. This free web service assembles a group of links, then conveniently bundles them into an e-book for later reading on a Kindle, iPad or iPhone.

“We are pleased to release a new experiment today: Readlists, a free and incredibly convenient app for collecting, sharing, and enjoying bundles of articles, poems, recipes -- you name it,” the company announced on its blog today. “It’s as simple as cutting and pasting links to ordinary web pages, that are then transformed into a clean reading view, but with the power to send them as specially tailored collections: to email, to Kindles, even as ePub-standard iBooks on your iPhone and iPad devices.”

Readlists harnesses the power of the Readability API, which “transforms conventional reading material into a clean, standalone bundle for sharing and consuming.” The service requires no software, no technical knowledge and most of all, no fuss.

“To create your own Readlist, click the ‘Make a Readlist’ button at,” the website explains. “Then, simply cut and paste a URL from any web article into the empty list you see. Give the collection a title and short description, click ‘Add’, and you’re good to go! Your e-book file will be beautifully formatted and available to peruse on your device of choice. Add as many articles as you like.”

 requires a free Readability account in order to own and manage your Readlists, which can be sent to any Amazon Kindle, to the iPhone or iPad via iBooks, as an emailed or downloaded ePub file, shared on Facebook or embedded into your own blog post or Tumblr page simply by pasting code provided by the website.

The developer released an update on Wednesday night that dramatically improves the speed of page turns and adds a number of other welcome features.

Marco Arment has released Instapaper 4.2, a slick update to the $4.99 “read later” app that allows users to save articles from any website -- and a long list of companion apps -- for later reading in a clean, uncluttered UI. While competition has been heating up in the “read later” space with the release of Readability and the rebranding of Read It Later to Pocket, Instapaper continues to add new features and improvements.

The big story with Instapaper 4.2 is an all-new Fast Pagination mode, which significantly improves the accuracy and speed of page turns thanks to a complete rewrite of the pagination code. The result is near immediate page turning, but that’s not all. Users now have the option to choose an optional iBooks-style page turning animation, complete with gestures.

The update also allows the “Twilight Sepia” color tint to be selected at any time, along with subtle but welcome changes such as a new draggable dot bar, which replaces the scroll bar while in pagination mode. Users can now swipe with two fingers to close an article, and full-screen mode adds an Auto mode, which kicks in after a few seconds.

The 4.2 release notes also close with a personal message from the developer, who recently added a new member to his family. “On a personal note, my wife and I just had a baby,” Arment writes. “You, my awesome customers, let me work at home and spend as much time with my family as possible during this great time. Thank you so much.”

Instapaper 4.2 is now available from the App Store; the 11.3MB download is free for existing users and $4.99 for everyone else, and the universal app now requires a device running iOS 5.0 or later.

Stealthy Samsung M300 in line for Sprint

updated 03:25 pm EDT, Wed April 11, 2007

Samsung M300 for Sprint

Samsung is prepping a new clamshell phone to replace the A640 in its lineup. Known as the SPH-M300, the device will take a cue from Sony-Ericsson's phones and hide the external display through an OLED display that only reveals itself for a call. The camera should also be vastly improved over the earlier phone with a 2-megapixel sensor in place of the VGA model of before. Stereo Bluetooth audio and a microSD slot for media are expected, though EVDO Internet support isn't known.

A release of the M300 is pegged for May 14th, according to leaks. It should come initially in a single Dark Silver color but will be followed up by a Sprint-friendly red version in July. [via Phone Arena]

UBS optimistic about Apple's finances despite delay

updated 12:35 am EDT, Tue August 5, 2008

UBS lauds Apple's success

UBS Investment Research - a financial analyst firm that recently turned its attention to Apple - offered its views on the iPod manufacturer, leading with statements that the company's brand "stickiness" is a boon, while also noting that there could be a delay with a new ultra-portable. According to AppleInsider, analyst Maynard Um clarified that the delay is unfortunate, but not unexpected for the tech industry, saying that such slips are "typical," with no cause for concern. Um states that the delay should be no more than the first half of 2009.

Um also leaks that Apple is expected to offer an updated line of MacBooks - its entry-level laptop - paralleling reports of new casing photos that have surfaced in the industry. He also found that Apple will introduce new iPods, both of which are scheduled for a mid- to late-2008 release. This also includes reports of additional iPhone 3G colors, with a new model following in early 2009.

UBS maintains a "buy" rating for Apple stock, with an ideal ceiling of $195 per share. The firm bases this decision on future product releases, as well as overall brand loyalty from its users. UBS also cites the iTunes brand as giving Apple an additional element of quality control over its product ecosystems, since it does not have to rely on a third party for this function.

Samsung issues earnings guidance, reveals income drop of 24 percent

updated 09:24 am EDT, Tue July 8, 2014

Samsung operating income estimated to be below analyst expectations

Samsung has issued yet another warning to analysts that its earnings for the current quarter will miss expectations. The company is now predicting a drop of 24 percent year-over-year, missing pundit predictions by nearly $1 billion. The company is blaming the poor earnings forecast on currency fluctuations and a slowdown in overall smartphone market growth in the quarter. A statement following Monday's results guidance attempts to explain away the company's operating income reduction, just as warned in late June, with increased competition in the Chinese and some European markets leading to lower sales of its medium and entry-level smartphones.

Operating profit for the quarter ending in June is expected to reach 7.2 trillion won ($7.1 billion), reports Bloomberg, a drop of 24 percent compared to the last quarter and representing the company's third successive quarterly drop. This is also far below the 8.1 trillion won ($8 billion) expected by analysts. Sales were also lower than expectations, with an estimated 52 trillion won ($51.4 billion) in the quarter compared to the anticipated 53.2 trillion won ($52.6 billion.)

"The second quarter is a seasonally weak period for smartphone demand in China," states Samsung's press release, claiming there to be "price competition and a weaker demand for 3G products ahead of the expected growth of 4G LTE products in the Chinese market." Lower demand in Europe lead to increased inventory, further affecting the company's profits. Tablet sales were slow because of a "longer replacement cycle than that of smartphones, which is usually between two to three years," with Samsung noting higher shipments of smartphones with large 5- and 6-inch screens replacing those of 7-inch and 8-inch tablets.

Weak demand for smartphones from other companies also apparently affected its component and display business. The Korean won has also been blamed for the lower financial results, with a "strong Korean currency throughout the second quarter" against the dollar and euro.

The third quarter is cautiously expected to be better than the second. Despite planning to launch its "new smartphone lineup," Samsung isn't expecting to make "any major marketing expenditure to occur in the upcoming quarter." The stronger smartphone sales will help its display business, with its memory arm expected to have increased seasonal demand. Developments in wearable devices, smart home appliances, and Internet of Things devices are also planned.

The full extent of Samsung's financial situation will be revealed when the company issues its full quarterly report later this month.

    The usual theme is if Samsung smartphone sales are slowing then surely Apple's iPhone must be suffering even more. It's always said if any smartphone company is affected by slowing sales then the iPhone is going to hurt the most. Apple always seems to be considered the weakest link in the smartphone chain.

Avernum Fans, There Is More On The Way

Spiderweb Software is preparing to release Avernum 2, the followup to their popular shareware game. Avernum 2, a roll-playing type game in which citizens of the underground prison/society are suddenly in grave danger, picks up where the first game left off. According to Spiderweb Software:

Avernum 2 An Upcoming Epic Fantasy Role-Playing Game for Windows and Macintosh

Avernum is a prison. It is an enormous warren of tunnels and caverns, far below the surface world. You were banished there by the cruel Empire, to spend the rest of your life in the underworld. At first, it seemed like you and your many fellow prisoners might be able to form a nation and live in peace, far from the sun.

Then a group of adventurers from Avernum assassinated Hawthorne, the emperor of the Empire. Now the forces of the Empire are rampaging through your underground home, killing everyone they find. As things stand, the nation of Avernum, and all in it, are doomed.

But then you, lowly soldiers stationed at the most remote Avernite outpost, get a chance to change things. A series of unexpected events gives you the opportunity to explore unimagined realms, meet strange alien creatures, and maybe, with luck and cunning, save your people from certain doom.

Avernum. Itis a terrible place. But itis all you have.

Avernum 2 is the sequel to the hit retro-rpg Avernum. Avernum 2, like its predecessor, is a classic fantasy role-playing game, designed for anyone who wants a huge game with a fascinating plot and who longs for the good old days of Ultima and Wizardry. It features beautiful 3-D, 16-bit graphics, including drawings by well-known fantasy illustrator, Phil Foglio, a massive storyline with three different game-winning quests (complete one or two of them, or even all three), and addicting gameplay.

Experience with Avernum is completely unnecessary to enjoy Avernum 2. Avernum is a complete rewrite of the classic game Exile 2: Crystal Souls. Avernum is from Spiderweb Software, makers of Nethergate and the award-winning Exile series. Estimated minimum system requirements: Windows 95/98/NT/2000 or PowerPC Macintosh, 12 MB free RAM, 20 MB hard drive space, 800x600 screen resolution. Highly recommended: 16 bit color, minimum 120 MhZ Processor.

Avernum 2 is expected to be released by the end of 2000, and will be available for US$25. You can find more information, including screenshots, at the Avernum web site.

Mozilla persuades Firefox 3.6 users to dump old browser

Mozilla’s upgrade call last month pushed more Firefox 3.6 users to grab a newer edition than any month since June 2011, a Web metrics company said over the weekend.

According to Net Applications, Firefox 3.6’s share of all browsers used in December fell by nearly a full percentage point, ending the month with an average of 4.4 percent, down from November’s 5.3 percent.

Mozilla began urging Firefox 3.6 users to upgrade in early December after twice postponing the offer. The upgrade pitch prompted users to move to Firefox 8, the most recent “rapid release” edition at the time. Since then, Mozilla has launched Firefox 9.

December’s decline was Firefox 3.6’s largest since June, when the browser lost 2.1 percentage points, and more than three times November’s drop. Last month’s desertion rate was also twice the average of the months July through November.

Moving Firefox 3.6 users to the rapid release schedule—where Mozilla issues a new version of its browser every six weeks—is important to the company, since it still supports the two-year-old browser with security updates. By getting most of its users onto the new timetable, Mozilla will be able to retire Firefox 3.6.

For several months, Mozilla has discussed the idea of putting Firefox 3.6 out to pasture. Last summer, when it announced a plan to continue supporting the aged browser for enterprises—which had groused that they were unable to keep up with the every-six-week schedule — it said it would retire Firefox 3.6 after kick starting an “Extended Support Release,” or ESR, program.

The current plan is to retire Firefox 3.6 on April 24, 2012, according to information on Mozilla’s website.

Firefox 3.6 accounted for 20 percent of all versions of Mozilla’s browser used last month, down from 82 percent in January 2011, and 32 percent in July.

The former Needful Things building just north of the Ohio River bridge has a new owner and will soon have a new function and look.

Kathie Petkovic, owner of the Riverboat Inn on East First Street, purchased the building this week for $75,000 and plans to renovate the location into conference or reception space.

"I paid more than I wanted, but I felt it was crucial to get," Petkovic, who has long been critical of the property's condition, said.

The transaction involved Don Stewart and former Needful Things owner Julie Marshall.

Marshall is serving a prison sentence for corrupt business influence, possession of a synthetic drug, maintaining a common nuisance, three counts of tax evasion and three counts of failure to withhold employee sales tax.

Marshall was buying the building on contract before she was sent to prison, at which time she quick-claimed the property back to Stewart, according to property records.

As part of a July out-of-court settlement with the family of Ryan Moreland - a local man who died after taking synthetic drugs witnesses say he purchased at Marshall's hilltop Needful Things store - Marshall was prohibited from operating a retail business at the downtown location. She also lost ownership of her hilltop Needful Things store.

Petkovic, who owns property throughout Madison, put an offer on the downtown building when it became available. Petkovic had considered buying the property several years ago before it became Needful Things.

Since then, she said Marshall's shop has been an eyesore for her inn because patrons had to drive past Needful Things to get to the Riverboat Inn.

"The entrance to Madison has been pretty trashy, let's face it," Petkovic said.

Her goal is to use the location as an extension of the Riverboat Inn by transforming it into a reception or conference area.

The first priority for Petkovic is to renovate the exterior, including the windows and doors and finding a new outside color scheme. Much of the exterior also is covered with wood paneling, which she plans to remove.

Petkovic said she believes there is a demand for such a location downtown for businesses and small groups. She said she's often approached by businesses looking for a place downtown to have a small conference or brainstorming session.

She plans to include a caterer's kitchen and enough space for 50 to 60 guests.

"There are just a lot of different uses people need," she said.

New Quilt Ladder and Another Finish!

I'm on a roll here! Whoa! That's what happens when you don't post for a while.
I want to share the most awesome quilt ladder I recently purchased online from Generation to Generation Heirloom. I ordered the Convertible Ladder, featured under the link Quilters Treasures. Chuck was super quick to get back to me, he found me the best shipping price, and I got it in no time at all. I had it shipped just across the border, in Blaine, WA, to save on the shipping. Shipping was very reasonable and quick.

The ladder was easy to put together and it is just gorgeous and very well made. Double bonus, it matches our furniture just perfectly! If you are looking for a high quality, hand made quilt ladder or stand, I highly recommend Generation to Generation Heirlooms. LOVE IT!

Do you see the pink quilt on the ladder above? It's another baby quilt I finished recently! I still don't know what this block is called? (If you know, would you please leave a comment? Thanks!)

A friend posted a picture of the block and asked if anyone had the pattern. I looked at the picture and whipped her up a quick block tutorial. I enjoyed making the block so much, I knew I would be making a quilt with it!

Lucky me, I had won a bundle of fat quarters as a door prize at our modern guild (thanks Hedda!). I loved the bright colours in the bundle, orange, yellow, red, pinks. I didn't have quite enough to make all the blocks, so I dug in my stash and found a striped fabric with all the colours, and another pink that went well with it.
I made a pieced backing, all with fabrics from my stash (the yellow fabric with houses was bought on sale from Connecting Threads). I bought the fabric for the binding. It's Remix by Ann Kelle for Robert Kaufman.
I love it, it's the perfect finish! I think I'm caught up on posting!
Happy quilting!

  1. It's always a good feeling to get caught up! Wish I could! And that ladder is truly awesome!

    1. Thanks Wendy! It is a good feeling!

  2. Just lovely! It's amazing what you can do with just squares! I'm pretty new to quilting - but I want to try the quilt you made with all of the orange and magenta squares. Thanks!

    1. This comment has been removed by the author.

    2. Thank you for your kind words! It was fun to make!

Default 3.5GHz Core 2 Duo E8700 pops up on Intel's site

The latest round of price cuts might have made Core 2 Quad processors more affordable than ever, and cheap Core i7 derivatives might be just months away, but Intel apparently hasn't forgotten about high-end Core 2 Duos. In fact, a new, faster dual-core model has quietly popped up in the company's CPU knowledge base.

This Core 2 Duo E8700 runs at 3.5GHz with 6MB of cache, a 1333MHz front-side bus speed, and a 65W thermal envelope. The knowledge base entry mentions the same Wolfdale design as current 45nm Core 2 Duos, so this could be little more than a higher-clocked Core 2 Duo E8600.

Default Micron Rev5B "C" Memory Module

Since the advent of the Winbond BH5 chips about two years ago, no other memory chip has as large a claim to fame as the BH5. Those chips could run at 250MHz (500MHz DDR) at the tightest timings possible - 2-2-2-5!

Nothing else could match its performance... until the new Micron Rev5B "C" modules appeared! Let's take a look at these amazing modules and why you should grab one today!
