Strange mark turns out to be tropical spider burrowing under vacationer's skin

Call Newton’s third law Apple analysts: For every extreme reaction one way, equally extreme reaction other. In case, means doomsayers happy write Apple Watch worst thing Apple done since building smartphone, taking music industry iTunes, [insert actual bad decision], others go totally opposite direction predict landslide victory Apple’s favor. Trip Chowdhry Global Equities Research falls somewhat latter category. His prediction? That Apple Watch 100,000 apps ready go launches April, 42 million units sold end December. Chowdry’s claim 100,000 apps based attending six Apple Watch-Kit hackathons “the past months.” Although I don’t doubt plenty apps ready go day, I’d frankly shocked it’s close number. By comparison, took iOS App Store 16 months hit 100,000 apps — point seen approximately 2,000,000,000 total downloads. His 42 million prediction bit closer mark, line reports pegging sales likely fall 30-60 million units first year market. While 42 million would fraction number units Apple sells iPhone, would still enough make runaway fastest selling new iOS device history. The iPad, comparison, sold 19.5 million units first year, iPhone moved relatively paltry 5.4 million units. Chowdry thinks Apple Watch go convert virtually every existing iPhone user, noting: “Since Apple Watch extends iPhone functionality provides user convenience ‘Glance’ ‘Notifications’ iPhone User, almost every current iPhone user, 350 million users, also Apple Watch user.” Chowdry also gives us neat way explaining away fact spent upwards $350 Apple Watch non-techy partners. “The $350 price Apple Watch appears non-issue,” writes, since, “On average Apple Watch user 100 Apps installed, one way think consumer getting 100 devices $350 ..i.e. $3.50 per device.” Finally, argues shouldn’t think “killer app” Apple Watch, as: “Different people different killer Applications devices. For games, others social messaging, navigation, music, video, email …and forth. Debating “what killer app device” passe’ – somewhat pre-year-2007 thinking, killer App used “Ringtones”. Thinking Apple Watch Watch perspective also fundamentally flawed: The best Watch market probably 3 App Device – tells time, may Day (Monday, Tuesday etc. ), may also stop watch…thats it! By April 10, 2015, expecting 100,000 Apple Watch Apps AppStore. Currently, average 65 Apps per iPhone. We estimating average Apple Watch 100 Apps per Apple Watch. There single killer app Apple Watch – user set Killer Apps … one way think consumer getting 100 different devices one Apple Watch.” This last point I absolutely agree with. The notion “killer app” VisiCalc Apple II, instance, outdated thinking. To kind mass market device needs be, Apple Watch things people — essentially iPhone currently manages be. We’ll wait bit longer see Chowdry’s figures hold water, there’s doubting enthusiasm. And time Apple seemingly wrong, entirely blame him?

Boko Haram denies ceasefire claim by Nigeria's government

ABUJA, Nigeria — The leader Nigeria's Islamist extremist group dashed hopes release 200 kidnapped girls Saturday, denying reports truce government. In new video message, Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau says schoolgirls converted Islam married off. "The issue girls long forgotten I long ago married off," says, laughing.

But weeks dragged sign kidnapped girls, hopes began fade. "I excited I heard news — I finally reunite daughter," said Hamidah Amira, 36, whose 17-year-old daughter kidnapped. But desperation set in, especially Boko Haram abducted dozens young women teenagers northeast Nigeria continued launch attacks forced hundreds flee. Despite incidents, government insisted negotiations Islamists ongoing Chad, began raise doubts cease-fire even agreed upon group. Martin Ewi, senior researcher Institute Security Studies' office Pretoria, said think Boko Haram agreed truce, citing lack public statements issue past two weeks. "The government might talking one faction … factions might bought idea dialogue," said. Human Rights Watch estimates Boko Haram, whose name loosely translates "Western education forbidden," abducted around 500 young women past five years. Although girls managed escape Islamists, whereabouts fate rest young women uncertain. A recent Human Rights Watch report, based interviews victims witnesses Boko Haram abductions, offers rare insight series physical sexual abuses girls suffer captivity, including rape, forced labor beating. "We found Nigerian government never interviewed girls, never really found learned they've gone through, never attempted kind investigations," said Rona Peligal, Human Rights Watch deputy director Africa Division. "They kind left own." Chibok resident Solomon Ali deeply critical government's handling situation since beginning. "We disappointed government done nothing ensure girls released," said, adding officials failed keep community informed. Outraged kidnappings atrocities committed Boko Haram, international community urged Nigerian government step efforts free girls. Since April, campaign motto "Bring Back Our Girls" went viral social media. Peligal says Nigerian authorities better job responding Boko Haram threat ensuring protection around schools. "The government needs better anticipate plan kinds abductions they're continuing," said. "And government respond capably." Ewi worries girls would freed unless government yields Boko Haram's demands release militants. "You can't pursue military operations still hoping release girls alive," said. Analysts warn situation likely get worse months ahead 2015 election. Earlier week, President Goodluck Jonathan, increasing scrutiny failure locate girls, confirmed would running re-election. "The Boko Haram issue indeed politicized, I expect would politicized get closer election," said Peligal. In meantime, Amira — like moms — waits, making personal appeal Boko Haram release daughter girls. "They sympathize us, government," Amira said. Contributing: The Associated Press
