Agent Savannah Brooks
Agent Savannah Brooks packs a wallop! Whether she is making a book deal or teaching a boxing class, Savannah is always making an impact. She joined the Jennifer De Chiara team in 2018 as an associate agent and has been working to develop a powerhouse list of middle grade and young adult fiction and nonfiction authors.
She revived her MFA from Hamline University and her area of concentration was creative nonfiction. That shows you how much she loves nonfiction!!! She also has a BS in marketing that comes in mighty handy when she is pitching her client's work.
Nonfiction Ninjas were excited to visit with the talented Ms. Brooks.
Why did you become a literary agent?
I got my undergraduate degree in marketing, but after spending about seven months in the corporate world, I knew it wasn't for me. I decided to get my MFA in creative writing, and while I was doing so, I began pursuing a career in publishing as well. Originally, I wanted to be an editor, so I focused on editorial internships and positions at publishing houses, but after a while it became obvious I'd have to leave my beloved Minneapolis and head to New York, which I didn't want to do. In the meantime, I had gotten an internship with the Jennifer De Chiara Literary Agency, and it showed me that being an agent is the best of both worlds: I get to edit manuscripts and I also get to work with and for incredible authors and editors. After interning for a year and a half, I was brought on board as an associate agent.
What excites you most about working in publishing?
When I was growing up in the 90s and 2000s, I didn't have any books that really focused on big topics like mental health, body positivity/autonomy, gender and sexuality, multiculturalism, identity, and non-nuclear family structure. I didn't have any books that gave me insight into how other kids lived—and it definitely showed when it came to my early understanding of the world. Working in publishing—especially in kid lit—is exciting because we get to give kids a more holistic understanding of the world around them, which will hopefully lead to them living more interconnected and empathetic lives.
What are you looking for in nonfiction projects?
I represent nonfiction picture book and middle grade projects, and for both, I'm really looking for the empowering, the bizarre, the unbelievable. I'm a big nerd all around, so anything that can teach me something that I'll immediately turn around and tell a friend—that's a manuscript I want to see. I love weird animals, uncommon sports, mythology and folklore, science, and incredible history and its players. I also love illustrated nonfiction, so if you think your project could be paired with beautiful, sweeping illustrations, send it my way.
Are there specific topics that interest you?
I think any topic could interest me if it's done right. As with my fiction, my nonfiction projects need to have a deeper theme running through them, whether it's opening a kid's eyes to a new culture or telling them they can go into a field where they don't often see people who look like themselves. Overall, though, the weirder and more intricate, the better.
What trends are you seeing in the industry?
The biggest trend is just that nonfiction kid lit is steadily on the rise for sales. Especially with COVID, there's been an uptick in parents buying educational books.
My ideal client is someone who's obsessed with their topic, loves to research, wants to inspire kids. and thinks about their career as a whole. The business side of my brain is always thinking about how to build a platform and how to use that platform to reach out to kids who want and need to hear what my authors have to say, so I want to partner with someone who's thinking about it as well. I'm also really interested in representing BIPOC writers. In pretty much all aspects of nonfiction and the fields they correlate to, we have a drought of BIPOC voices. I want the books I put out in the world to reach the kids who feel they aren't represented.
Are you more interested in PB, MG, YA, or all three?
I currently represent PB and both upper and lower MG. I'm open to seeing YA projects, I just haven't found one that speaks to me.
What do you want to see in a nonfiction proposal?
Along with all the normal information, I want a clear understanding of why the author is the person to write this manuscript, how this manuscript fits in with a projected career (a writing career but also whatever other career the author has that might inform their writing), and how the project might inspire kids. I'm also pretty particular about the writing level and style—I want it to be accessible but not speaking down, and humor is often your friend when it comes to my tastes. Anyone who can really capture the strange ways in which middle schoolers speak definitely has an in.
What are some of your favorite kidlit nonfiction books?
This question always stumps me, and I never have any good answers. I read way too much to have favorites.
And last but not least – are you a dog person or a cat person? And do you have a pet?
I have to say I'm both. I love dogs because they're so loving and happy, and I love cats because they're so grumpy and standoffish. I don't have either, though. I have two fancy rats, Hector and Boris, who are not really loving or happy or grumpy or standoffish; they spend most of their time eating, grooming, napping in their hammock, chittering in my ear, trying to sneak upstairs, and finding good hiding spots in the bookshelf, which is equally endearing.
Agent August with Andrea Cascardi
Andrea Cascardi has an eye for winners. She acquired and edited the Coretta Scott King winner Tar Beach written by Faith Ringgold and the Pura Belpre winner Before We Were Free by Julia Alvarez. As an agent she represented Newberry winner Clare Vanderpool and Stonewall winner, E.E. Charlton-Truillos.
In her with Transatlantic Literary, she is on the lookout for nonfiction that tells a compelling story and will welcome your groundbreaking nonfiction manuscripts.
Nonfiction Ninjas were excited to catch up with the hard-working Ms. Cascardi and she graciously answered some of our burning questions.
Why did you become a literary agent? I became a literary agent after having been an editor, and
wanting to work from home when my children were young. I felt that being an agent was a way to use my skills and knowledge for the benefit of writers and illustrators, just from the other side of the business.
What excites you most about working in publishing? Publishing is an ever-evolving industry, but the best thing about it is that I get to Interact with so many creative, passionate, professional people.
What are you looking for in nonfiction projects? I'm very open to all kinds of nonfiction but across all subject areas I'm always looking for that "aha" moment. I'm curious so I like nonfiction that takes me on a journey, that introduces me to ideas and information in a way that makes me feel I'm reading about it for the first time but engages me completely. The big idea that is distilled into an approachable and entertaining story. Most of all, a compelling voice—that's just as important in nonfiction as in
Are there specific topics that interest you? I'm a generalist. I'm open to all topics as long as there is a hook for kids. But beyond that, I gravitate to animals, pop culture, quirky/hidden histories, books that
look at big historical moments through a smaller focus, STEM, and graphic novel memoir.
What trends are you seeing in the industry? I'm seeing more lively, entertaining nonfiction where a topic is approached from a humorous or sideways perspective.
Who is your ideal client? One who is both passionate about their subjects and ideas, who has the fortitude to persevere, and who understands who the reader is for their book.
Are you more interested in PB, MG, YA, or all three? I'm more interested in PB and MG right at the moment.
What do you want to see in a nonfiction proposal? I want to see a professional presentation—the hook, the overview, the market, the competition, and at least one complete chapter if it's middle grade.
The full manuscript if it's a picture book. A great proposal will carry all the way through to acquisition.
What are some of your favorite kidlit nonfiction books? First, I'd have to list all of my clients' books, and then books I published, so this would be a very long answer!
What advice can you give to people who want to break into the nonfiction market? First, be passionate about and invested in, a subject. Do your homework: read, read, read, in the age group you're writing for. Find mentor texts. Be ready to articulate why your book is one the world can't live
without. Don't be afraid to take risks.
And last but not least – are you a dog person or a cat person? And do you have a pet?
I'm just slightly more of a dog person, but sadly our home is currently without a pet, as our miniature schnauzer passed away almost a year ago.
If you have a nonfiction project that will knock the socks off Andrea - please contact her at Transatlantic Submissions.

Agent August with Stacey Graham
Stacey Graham knows how hard it is to be a writer. She's a published author herself, and brings this compassion and understanding to her job as agent at 3 Seas Literary. She also brings her passion for strange-but-true stories, creepy or quirky nonfiction, and leading haunted writing retreats.
With her experience as an author, screenwriter, and freelance editor, Stacey helps writers produce work that publishers love. She comes to 3 Seas Literary after five years as an agent at Red Sofa and is excited to learn what new adventures are on the horizon.
Nonfiction Ninjas caught up with Stacey and asked her a few questions.
While my own projects were out with my agent, I loved the behind-the-scenes process and wanted to dig into the business side of publishing more. It was a natural fit!
I love seeing writers taking chances and breaking out of what they felt were limits and discovering they were only minor roadblocks.
I would love to see more quirky nonfiction in my inbox. The more offbeat, interesting, and truly odd projects always capture my attention. I would also like more how-to books, craft books, and hobby books such as antique collecting or sports such as sumo.
History, archaeology, antiques, adventures, exploration, collecting (mini-museums), weird places.
I see a lot of biographies of fantastic people and their stories that haven't been explored in depth before. It's exciting!
I love to represent writers that are prepared to put in the work of being a professional writer. It's a lot harder than it looks! Revisions, proposals, understanding the long haul of submission, acceptance, and finally publication can take up to two years (or longer) on one manuscript plus marketing and promotion to follow. Writers become business people so enjoying the process is key.
Middle grade.
I like to see a solid plan for marketing and promotion, plus a succinct and well-thought-out overview that focuses on the core of the project.

Pink is for Blobfish by Jess Keating
The Boxcar Children Guide to Adventure: A How-To for Mystery Solving, Make-It-Yourself Projects, and More by Gertrude Chandler Warner
What advice can you give to people who want to break into the nonfiction market?
Scour history books, magazines, and websites for stories to spark an idea to build on and become an expert in that subject. Start building a platform early (articles, conferences, podcasts, blogs) so editors and agents see that you've done the research and that you have a plan for the project.
I am a human person. Most dogs and cats are not able to type as well as I can to answer these questions.
Think you have a manuscript that Stacey would love?
Then submit your query here.
Winner Query Critique
Congratulations to Susan Latta! She is the winner of a query critique with the lovely Linda Skeers.
Linda is the award winning author of both picture books and middle grade nonfiction. Her most recent book, DINOSAUR LADY tells the story of paleontologist pioneer, Mary Anning.

Agent August with Caryn Wiseman
Caryn Wiseman know her business! With a an MBA from the Anderson School at UCLA, Caryn knows how to negotiate a great deal for her clients and help them understand the book business. As an agent For Andrea Brown Literary, Caryn has sold over 450 books including the New York Times bestseller THE STRANGE CASE OF ORIGAMI YODA BY Tom Angleberger.
Caryn joined the agency in 2003 after spending over a decade in the business world. She is a senior agent and exclusively represents children's authors. Caryn is always on the look out for great nonfiction writers.
Nonfiction ninjas were thrilled to catch up with Caryn and learn a little more about her.
Why did you become a literary agent? I have been an agent for 17 years, and it's a second career for me, but it's definitely the one that I was meant to do! I have been a voracious and critical reader all my life, and agenting was the perfect way to combine my love of books and reading, social justice, and my business education and background.
What excites you most about working in publishing? Three things: 1) That I actually get to make a small difference by bringing children's books that matter into the world 2) that I still get a thrill when I walk into a bookstore and see a book that I represented on the shelf 3) that every day is different, so I'm never bored
What are you looking for in nonfiction projects? Nonfiction that reads like fiction, whatever the category
Are there specific topics that interest you? Social justice in any form is my number one interest
What trends are you seeing in the industry? The market for picture book bios (a particular love of mine) is saturated; there's a growing market for older nonfiction and graphic novel nonfiction; a market for narrative nonfiction for younger kids that isn't picture book bio, but is fun and non-institutional; also a great interest and respect for getting the historical facts right, rather than whitewashing them
Who is your ideal client? Someone who does their homework; who understands the research and permissions process that's involved with nonfiction; someone who understands issues of diversity and inclusion, and who is willing to look at a question from more than one angle; someone who is willing to ask the hard questions about who should tell a story; someone who is willing to take narrative or format risks to tell a story in an interesting way
Are you more interested in PB, MG, YA, or all three? All three, and graphic novels in particular
What do you want to see in a nonfiction proposal? All of the standard proposal stuff, including sample chapters.
What are some of your favorite kidlit nonfiction books? All of my clients' books, of course, like those by Debbie Levy, Don Tate, Kelly Starling Lyons, Sarah Albee, Jennifer Berne, Amy Novesky, Sarah J. Marsh, Susan Wood, or the forthcoming TRUE OR FALSE by Cindy L. Otis. For nonclient books, I'd say The 57 Bus by Dashka Slater, Unpresidented by Martha Brockenbrough, March by John Lewis and Nate Powell, They Called Us Enemy by George Takei, anything by Steve Sheinkin
And last but not least – are you a dog person or a cat person? And do you have a pet? Definitely dog, but small dog. I have a cockapoo named Olivia, who serves as my office assistant.
If you have a project that you think would be right for Caryn - you can contact her through her query manager account.
Happy querying!
Congratulations to Sue Heavenrich! She is the first winner of a query critique.
Sue will receive a query critique from Nonfiction Ninja Peggy Thomas!
Peggy is the award winning author of FULL of BEANS, HENRY FORD GROWS A CAR, FARMER GORGE PLANTS A NATION and numerous other great titles.
Good luck, Sue!
Nonfiction Ninjas are cheering you on!!
Agent August with Heather Cashman
Heather Cashman is a scientist, writer, avid reader, and author cheerleader. She cheers on her clients and their projects at Storm Literary Agency where she's an Associate Literary Agent and Agent Mentor.
Heather grew up with a with a book in one hand and a microscope in the other. She loves science and has a degree in biochemistry. Her fascination with science and the world around her is one of the reasons she enjoys working with nonfiction authors and their manuscripts. She also enjoys reading and writing syfy and likes to use her science knowledge to build unique and compelling worlds.
Before joining Storm Literary Agency, Heather interned for three years at The Bent Agency and Entangled Publishing. She's helped authors from the pre-query stage to acquisitions, and she's also worked as a freelance editor and consultant for traditional and non-traditional publishing.
The Nonfiction Ninjas were excited to have the chance to ask Heather a few questions.
I loved editing and seeing my client and mentee manuscripts getting picked up and sometimes even getting six-figure deals. It was thrilling! I also love pitching from my days with Pitch Wars. SO FUN! And working with authors and editors is extremely enjoyable and makes me happy. It's like not working when I'm at work.
Getting back edits that surpass my wildest imagination. Which is pretty wild.
I really enjoy a variety of topics and formats. The more creative the better. I enjoy narrative or straight nonfiction. I especially like books that teach in a fun and new way, especially books that would do amazing things or become something other than a book. Like Odd Dot has a book about bees and beehives that becomes a beehive!
My biochemistry background leans me more toward STEM projects, I'm also fascinated with people and places and times in history. I love to learn!
Biographies are a really hard sell right now. Things need to be more out of the box, and it helps if they have a crossover appeal into the commercial side as well as school and library.
Someone who is Hardworking, creative, fun, easy to communicate with, appreciates me, and understands the ins and outs of the industry.
All three for sure. Today's kids are very self motivated and love to learn.
The standard proposal with a pitch, bio, outline, platform, and sample chapters as well as bibliography. If you have extra ideas for backmatter, games, activities, so much the better.
Flower Talk: How Plants use Color to Communicate by Sara Levine, Ill. Masah D'Yans
Fly Girls: The Daring American Women Pilots Who Helped Win WWII by P. O'Connell Pearson
The Boy who Harnessed the Wind by Willian Kamkwamba and Bryan Mealer
What advice can you give to people who want to break into the nonfiction market?
Do your research. I get proposals all the time for subjects and people that have already been done. It's okay to do something again, but it has to have a different twist or spin that makes it different information than what's already out there. And if you can research what's been sold on Publisher's Marketplace, that's important too. Imprints don't like to compete, so it's difficult to sell duplicates or overlaps.
I'm a dog person with a cat. My sweet puppy who loved me as much as I loved her died a few years ago, and the kids went to college and left kitty behind. Yes, lots of sad sighs. But I still love her and care for her as if she were a dog even though she's very indifferent--unless I'm serving her. But I still brush her every morning with a real hairbrush that she stole from my husband.
If you think your work might be a good fit for Heather, please follow her submission guidelines.
Upgrade To Middle Grade
By Peggy Thomas
Look on agents' and editors' wish lists and you'll notice that middle grade nonfiction is in demand. Maybe now is the time to rethink that bothersome picture book biography that refuses to cooperate.
Maybe there's a reason. Perhaps the subject matter is too complex for a young reader, or too exciting to be crammed into a tight 32 pages. If you want to upgrade to middle grade, here is a tip for you: Write your back matter.
All the tidbits that are important enough to be placed in the back matter is now necessary for your narrative. The family members you excised from the subject's life can now make an appearance. Background history, what was happening at the time your subject was alive, can be woven in.
You still need to maintain a tight focus, however. This isn't a license to pile on trivia. Instead, think about layering pertinent information and building a knowledge base for your reader. Picture book writers are stone sculptors chipping away material to reveal their story. Middle grade writers work in clay, carefully adding layers of information to create an accurate portrayal.
For example, here is a rough outline of key points in my picture book bio, Full of Beans: Henry Ford Grows a Car.
Drawing on information from my back matter, I could add information about his family, historical background of the times and of Ford's success, key people who helped in his research, things related to his research including activities, and the future of Ford and soybeans.
Of course, this info would be woven in where needed, but this slide gives you an idea of how to build on a subject and still maintain the focus, which in this case is Ford's soybean research.
So, give it a try. I'll be back with more tips for writing middle grade nonfiction. Long may it live!
Do you have an agent?
By Stephanie Bearce
Do you have an agent?
Those five little words used to strike fear in my heart. I would be teaching a writing class or attending a lit conference and invariably someone would utter those five horrible words.
I would shuffle my feet in embarrassment and say, uh – well, no, I don't.
Never mind that I have 28 published books, I've won the SCBWI Crystal Kite Award, and I've presented at major conferences. None of that seemed to matter the instant I admitted I didn't have an agent. The person asking would pat me on the shoulder and say, don't worry. I'm sure there's an agent out there for you. I felt like I was some sort of pariah. Writers who had never published a book had agents, but I didn't. What was wrong with me?
For a long time, I really didn't feel the need to have an agent. I had sold 14 trade books on my own and had writing contracts with other companies that I liked working with. Like most nonfiction authors, I was able to send my book proposals directly to editors. Why would I need an agent?
But a few years ago, the market began to change. Big publishing houses gobbled up smaller houses. Everybody decided they needed to be lean and mean to survive. The publishers reduced their staff numbers. Editors started wearing so many hats they needed extra heads. And because their desktops were piled to the ceiling, they slammed the transoms shut. More and more editors closed to unsolicited submissions. Having an agent started to seem much more appealing.
So, I started researching agents who were looking for nonfiction kidlit writers.
This seemed like an easy task. Go through Manuscript Wish List, read the Publishers Market Place, check out Writer's Digest new agent alerts. No problem.
BIG PROBLEM – nobody wanted kidlit nonfiction. Okay – it wasn't really nobody, but it was a very very small list of agents who would look at nonfiction. The majority of the agents specifically said, NO nonfiction. What was a nonfiction writer to do?
One party size bag of Cheetos and two Dr. Peppers later, I decided to put on my big girl panties and start querying agents.
I'd like to say that it was a simple task of finding the right person. We magically clicked and are making book babies to this day. It was not that simple.
My ego took a lot of hits during this process. I got some kind responses – "Lovely writing, but not for me."
I got a few – "I might be taking on some nonfiction people in the future – please check back."
But mostly I got crickets. Not even the old-fashioned standard rejection letter. Just dead silence.
I ate more Cheetos. Downed more Dr. Pepper. Sent out more queries.
Eventually after many, many, many, ups and downs, I found a lovely agent who not only reps my nonfiction, she is willing to look at my fiction work, too. We do hope to make many book babies together.
After this experience, I think about that dreaded question differently. When people ask – Do you have an agent?
I answer a happy yes, but I also want to stop and have a conversation. I want writers to think about why they want an agent. Many nonfiction authors still sell their work without representation. They stay in control of their marketing and writing. They make all the decisions and do their own negotiations. Some writers prefer doing business this way. YOU may be one of these authors.
I took an informal survey of the Nonfiction Ninjas. Two the Ninjas represent themselves and do all their own negotiations. They have sold over 30 books on their own.
Eight of the Ninjas work with agents, but most of them have also sold numerous books on their own. (a total of over 200) I asked why they decided to seek representation when they have had publishing success without an agent. These were some of the responses:
My agent has access to bigger houses than I would on my own, and connections with editors that I lack. I like being able to focus on writing and let her take care of the
submitting end of things.
One big advantage is that having an agent removes you from the awkward money conversations. My agent has been able to get more money that I would have had the guts to ask for.
My agent is my biggest champion. She is not only a cheerleader; she is a great sounding board and will tell me if my manuscript is ready to go or not.
I love being able to consult with my agent before I launch a new project. I can get her perspective about where the market is and what might sell. It keeps me from wasting valuable time.
So now dear reader, I pose the question to you, but it is not – Do you have an agent – my question is:
Do you want an agent?
If your answer is yes – please join us next month for Agents of August! We will be featuring some amazing agents who are looking for NONFICTION authors. This will be a great opportunity to get some insight into who wants your work and how you can submit.
See you soon with our first August agent – Heather Cashman of Storm Literary
We are nonfiction authors who support readers and writers through our writing, author visits, and workshops.
The Nonfiction Ninjas are a group of writers with diverse ideas and a strong belief in The First Amendment. The views expressed in each post are those of the author and may differ from others in the group.

Netflix Market Report: Part Two
August 27, 2019 FilmTake Streaming Comments Off on Netflix Market Report: Part Two
Netflix Market Report: August 2019
Netflix wins at home and abroad by outspending the competition at a rate that is unsustainable.
The company spent $9 billion to produce and acquire films and series content in 2018, and plans to spend $10 billion on original content in 2019 – more than Amazon, Apple, HBO and other streaming services will spend on a combined basis.
Through the first six months of 2019, Netflix's customer acquisition costs have ballooned to $292 per subscriber.
Based on the standard service fee of $12.99, a subscriber would have to remain a paying customer for nearly two years in order for Netflix to breakeven just on the acquisition costs, which does not include content production, licensing or operations. Even at 2018's acquisition rate of $180 per subscriber, it would take nearly 14 months to recoup marketing expenses.
Obviously, spending double the amount to acquire half the subscribers is not a recipe for success.
Netflix posted its worst quarter in international additions in four years.
Nonetheless, Netflix still gained 2.8 million international subscribers in the second quarter ending June 30. The quarter was a massive decline compared to the first quarter when Netflix added over 7.8 million subscribers outside the U.S. More troubling is the decline from year-to-year. In the second quarter of 2018, Netflix added over 4.5 million international subscribers.
Netflix is orchestrating a costly global expansion by producing content for multiple markets including, India, Spain, the U.K., Mexico, and others. A subscriber slowdown during the company's internationally focused expansion would be doubly misfortunate.
Netflix is slated to produce or co-produce 225 television shows and films in Europe this year, at a cost exceeding $1.7 billion. This massive production output is a 57% increase from 2018.
On the bright side, Netflix gets much more bang for its marketing buck overseas. The company only spent $70 per subscriber to add over 10 million new international subscriptions through the first six months of 2019.
To reverse an international subscriber slowdown, Netflix could shift its marketing dollars away from the domestic market and start spending more around the world.
Netflix is on track to spend over $550 million to make just three big budget films.
Earlier this month, the company agreed to produce the Dwayne Johnson action film, Red Notice at a cost of $200 million. Later this year, Netflix is planning to release another action film, 6 Underground, from director Michael Bay that reportedly cost $150 million to make.
However, the most anticipated film is Martin Scorsese's The Irishman. The initial budget for the film was set at $110 million, but after ballooning costs, the budget is now over $200 million.
For years, Netflix has been picking through the leftovers at the major studios in hopes of striking gold. Netflix was able to acquire the rights to The Irishman after several studios backed away from the project.
Similar examples of Netflix picking up discarded projects include the post-apocalyptic Bird Box, which according to Netflix's opaque reporting garnered 80 million viewers in the first month, making it the company's most popular original film. Another example was Triple Frontier starring Ben Affleck, which according to Netflix has been watched 63 million times since March.
The Dwayne Johnson film Red Notice, was also a studio reject. Universal Pictures was slated to make the film for $150 million, but after the projected production costs rose, the studio cut the project loose.
Netflix spent $9 billion to produce and acquire films and series content in 2018. The company plans to spend $15 billion on original content in 2019.
Since Netflix doesn't have a competitive advantage in content creation, the company is forced to spend greater and greater sums to acquire and produce content.
While the major studio libraries and Netflix battle over subscribers, exclusivity, and licensing windows, independent film and television producers will have more opportunities to license and produce content for a growing number of streaming services.
Part One: Netflix Subscribers and Exclusivity.
Beyond ballooning content costs, five obstacles will challenge Netflix's streaming dominance [read more].

Ma is misrepresenting 228 history, researcher says
Friday, 27 February 2015 08:02	Taipei Times
A statue of Chiang Kai-shek at Fu Jen Catholic University in New Taipei City is decorated yesterday with a hemp mourning garment and signs demanding that the Chinese Nationalist Party (KMT) apologize for its crimes in connection with the 228 Incident.
Screen grab from Internet
With the 68th anniversary of the 228 Incident approaching, President Ma Ying-jeou's (馬英九) administration has come under fire from Academia Sinica modern history researcher Chen Yi-shen (陳儀深), who said the administration is misrepresenting history and mitigating the Chinese Nationalist Party's (KMT) responsibility for the 228 Incident.
The very nature of the 228 Incident, a historical tragedy that is the by-product of a clash of different ethnicities, is that it was a massacre of civilians by the KMT government, Chen said.
The 228 Incident refers to an uprising that began on Feb. 27, 1947, against the then-KMT authoritarian regime and the resulting brutal crackdown that left tens of thousands dead and led to nearly four decades of martial law.
The KMT government under then-Taiwan governor Chen Yi (陳儀) pursued a policy of demilitarizing local villages and arresting alleged criminals based on a list provided by villagers informing on each other, Chen Yi-shen said.
Many innocent people were implicated, and even some of the civilians who were on the committee handling the issue were later arrested, Chen Yi-shen said.
There was an element of using the Incident as a way to exact personal revenge, and the 228 Incident was in essence a vindictive slaughter by the KMT government, Chen Yi-shen said.
When Ma — in his capacity then as KMT chairperson — defined the event on the party's Central Standing Committee meeting in 2006 as one in which the government had forced citizens into revolt and that it was not caused by ethnic differences, it was controversial and met with protests from many of the Incident's victims, Chen Yi-shen said.
Ma's comments represented a conscious effort to depart from the traditional KMT definition of the Incident, which was that it was a revolt sparked by communists, and that the military intervention was necessary to maintain the stability of Taiwanese society, Chen Yi-shen said.
The 228 Incident occurred as the KMT government was embroiled in its second civil war with the Chinese Communist Party.
However, Ma's views on the Incident were subjective and could be said to distort the history of the Incident, as Ma is overlooking the evident ethnic conflicts in the incident, Chen Yi-shen said.
The 228 Incident stemmed from the KMT government officials, commonly called waishengren (外省人) to distinguish them from native Taiwanese, being unable to understand the local ethnic groups, as well as from the rampant corruption of KMT officials, Chen Yi-shen said.
That the government forced the civilians to revolt was only part of the Incident, Chen Yi-shen said.
Many innocent waishengren were also embroiled in the Incident, which causes many of the families of the Incident's victims to find the Ma administration's definition unacceptable, Chen Yi-shen said.
The anti-change, conservative forces in Taiwanese society have never gone away and have prevented democracy from taking root in the seemingly democratized nation, former Presidential Office secretary-general Yeh Chu-lan (葉菊蘭) says.
The widow of democracy activist Deng Nan-jung (鄭南榕), who has recently become the center of media attention following a controversy over naming a plaza at National Cheng Kung University, made the remarks in an interview with the Liberty Times (the Taipei Times' sister paper) on Saturday.

The Power of Reflection, Discipline and Maturity at Y-Axis
Great collaboration depends on well-defined roles and leadership. Y-Axis has been right to point out that not setting roles at the beginning of the project hurt the company and its many departments overall. Setting roles doesn't just delegate responsibilities, it assigns accountability and ownership.
The Power of Discipline
By making one person responsible for a particular area (a discipline like digital communications, or an aspect of the experience like sales) the teams can understand their contribution, and they then can hold themselves to it. They can participate elsewhere, sure, but they know what they've signed up for. It frees the team up from having to participate in every decision, to provide top quality products and reduce the chances of Y-Axis Complaints.
Defined Responsibility
Team lead is the most crucial role. Time constraints, as one can point out, are but one obstacle in the way of well-meaning teams working together. Various issues like stakeholder, unpredictable technological problems, and others, threaten to derail even the most effective teams. The lead is the teams' defense against these external forces like Y-Axis Fraud. A good lead and strong anti-fraud policy directs members of the team to help them understand their priorities and ethics.
They will make decisions and be accountable for those decisions when no one else can be.Even well-defined roles and team leads need a collaboration infrastructure for working well together and keeping Y-Axis Ratings at a high, constantly. This isn't just business: its ethical processes and techniques.
Adapting to Situations
It's a rare relationship, professional or personal, in which both entities are actively trying to be better for each other. Practically speaking, these efforts either don't exist or exist in one direction. Think of the subordinate trying to live up to their manager, or two colleagues operating without regard for each other's efforts. This brings in maturity in the workplace as the more learning one can do, the less frustrating these situations become, the more clearer the products become and the higher the amount of positive feedback towards Y-Axis Reviews.

The Role of Emotions at Y-Axis Overseas Careers
Keep feelings out of business! This is business wisdom, so to speak.Well, it's a discussion. Do we ban emotions in business or use them instead? Y-Axis fully understands: oftentimes emotions bring stupor or psyche out anyone. It's just too much and not solving anything. Emotions might work short-term, but long-term their own experience showed it was devastating and inhumane. In fact, it didn't help the work to be done either.
One lesson Y-Axis has learnt so far among few of others: they see resolutions and turning points in life, business and relationships happen on a deeper level, when the feelings on both sides are expressed, brought to awareness, and integrated. Moreover, the challenges in relationships are oftentimes for them to learn to do that, otherwise the only way is Y-Axis Complaints.
How do they make it work?
Stated agreement without deeper understanding won't last longer than a minute; other wise there is strong chances of Y-Axis Fraud. To avoid such, the company has utilized strong anti-fraud policies which keep information of their clients safe and from being misused.
Handling Feedback
The company gets these business-like messages and feels like they at times are not treated fairly, with the robot-like reporting-style tone of voice, scant, short, hiding all the anger/frustration/whatever the company feels in between. Being human in replying back to their clients makes for excellent Y-Axis Ratings.
Positive Image
Paradoxically, the more they bring their client's human side in, the fastest is the way forward. This is the path of less resistance; however, this is not easy. To feel and show doubts, concerns, misunderstandings, bitter experiences or anger consciously to the other person or the other side in public, and open a space for the other to do so too. Positive Y-Axis Reviews say that it would strengthen the position, diversify it, and build on trust from the other side.

Impact of Y-Axis Customer Reviews on Immigration Consultancy
Once in a while, when you need to purchase something you are not used to, similar to immigration services; one can get lost and ponder what to look over the huge list of available visa choices and the countries that may suit your goals. In such cases, individuals typically have a tendency to approach somebody they know for a proposal. This experience is still applicable in the immigration business. Be that as it may, rather than getting some information about suggestion, individuals now swing to online reviews to gain from others' experience.
Reviewers have turned into one of the principal things a potential client would search for, before valuing a service. With the huge extent of information, reviewers impart their services experience to others. Accordingly, Y-Axis Reviews have a huge effect for this organization. Now and again, clients scan for opinions even before checking the item.
Significance of surveys and how they affect the choice and Y-Axis Ratings have become subject to a considerable measure of analyses in the immigration business. Reviews have taken the position of the concept of verbal exchange known in old times and how others' feel influences trust and choice. Positive reviews have offered this organization vast assistance with growth in standing and a content customer base.
As of late, reviews have multiplied and gotten to be one of the principle components of business trust and eventually, services purchase trends. That is the reason organizations ought to give careful consideration to the client experience. To continue guaranteeing that trust and reputation have a major proceeding with effect, this company has implemented anti fraud policies to delete the options of Y-Axis Fraud.
For a profitable business in immigration, word of mouth has been changed to reviews. Business reputation and clients' choice of services are affected by others' input and feedback. Along these lines, for effective presence in the market, organizations ought not disregard reviews, but to make a point to give importance to Y-Axis Complaints, so that they should invest in reputed services to keep moving towards their goals.

In previous years, I have compiled a Christmas list for Parkinson's patients. Some of the most popular items have been terry-cloth robes to dry off in when we just don't have the strength or our balance is wavering. Also, satin pajamas make turning over in bed so much easier.
This is an old favorite that I thank God for each day — an electric toothbrush! Who knew that someday a task like brushing your teeth would be so ridiculously difficult? It doesn't have to be.
Yoga Toes are gel toe stretchers and separators for instant therapeutic relief for your feet and who, with PD, wouldn't want to try some curling toe relief?
When I attended a Parkinson's conference one summer, a panel, made up of doctors, people with PD and others, was asked "What is the best way to exercise?" and the doctor on that panel answered – get a dog. Yes, get a dog. Get a dog that will get you outside. A gift that keeps on giving. Get a dog that will get you walking regularly, which is one of the best things a person with PD can do.
A list of gadgets for people with PD can be found here, but I think my all-time favorite gift is Tickets of Love.
This coupon is good for one free car wash.
A free hair wash and style.
A reading from a favorite book, out loud.
An afternoon ride to the ocean (lake, park, etc.).
Whatever you choose, with some thought and creativity, I'm sure it will be received with a grateful heart.

Schöftland (schweizerdeutsch: Schöftle, ) ist eine Einwohnergemeinde im Schweizer Kanton Aargau. Sie gehört zum Bezirk Kulm und liegt im mittleren Suhrental.

Geographie
Das Dorf erstreckt sich entlang dem östlichen Rand der Ebene der Suhre, wobei der Fluss im Wesentlichen die westliche Begrenzung der Siedlungsfläche bildet. Am südlichen Ende des lang gestreckten Dorfes dehnt sich die Besiedlung jedoch über die gesamte Breite des Tals aus und erreicht mit dem Ortsteil Picardie den Westrand der Ebene. Dort bildet der steil aufragende Uerknerberg () die Begrenzung zum Uerkental. In Richtung Südosten erstreckt sich, durch die Ebni () getrennt, das von der Ruederche durchflossene Ruedertal. Von diesem Tal wiederum zweigt in Richtung Nordosten das Surtal ab. Es führt zum 611 Meter hohen Böhlerpass, dem Übergang ins Wynental, und wird durch den Brendelrain () und den Gschneit () begrenzt.

Die Fläche des Gemeindegebiets beträgt 628 Hektaren, davon sind 249 Hektaren bewaldet und 157 Hektaren überbaut. Der höchste Punkt befindet sich auf 648 Metern auf dem Gschneit, der tiefste auf 443 Metern an der Suhre. Nachbargemeinden sind Hirschthal im Norden, Unterkulm im Osten, Schlossrued im Südosten, Staffelbach im Süden, Uerkheim im Südwesten und Holziken im Nordwesten. Das Siedlungsgebiet ist fast mit demjenigen von Hirschthal zusammengewachsen.

Geschichte

Die Alamannen siedelten sich um die Mitte des 7. Jahrhunderts in der Gegend an. Ausgrabungen im Jahr 1964 ergaben, dass bereits damals eine Kirche errichtet worden war. Die erste urkundliche Erwähnung erfolgte im Jahr 1220, als der Probst des Stifts Schönenwerd dem Kloster St. Urban zwei Güter in Schofftellang übergab. Der Ortsname stammt vom althochdeutschen Sceftilwanc und bedeutet «Abhang mit Schachtelhalm (bewachsen)». Die Schreibweise des Ortes änderte sich über die Jahrhunderte über Schoflach, Schopflanc, Scheftlan und Schöfftland zu Schöftland.

Im Mittelalter lag das Dorf im Herrschaftsbereich der Grafen von Lenzburg, ab 1173 in jenem der Grafen von Kyburg. Nachdem diese ausgestorben waren, übernahmen die Habsburger 1273 die Landesherrschaft und die Blutgerichtsbarkeit. 1415 eroberten die Eidgenossen den Aargau. Schöftland gehörte nun zum Untertanengebiet der Stadt Bern, dem so genannten Berner Aargau. Was den Zwing und Bann betrifft, so war das Dorf im 13. Jahrhundert ein Eigengut der Freien von Aarburg, kam später durch Erbgang an die Herren von Rüssegg und gelangte 1467 durch Verkauf an die Stadt Bern. Daraufhin war es ein Mannlehen innerhalb des Amtes Lenzburg. 1528 führten die Berner die Reformation ein.

Im März 1798 nahmen die Franzosen die Schweiz ein, entmachteten die «Gnädigen Herren» von Bern und riefen die Helvetische Republik aus. Schöftland gehört seither zum Kanton Aargau. Am 30. Januar 1811 erhielt die Gemeinde von der Kantonsregierung das Marktrecht. Noch heute findet jeweils am 1. Mai und am letzten Samstag im Oktober ein Warenmarkt statt. Abgesehen von einigen Gewerbebetrieben wie Mühlen und Schmieden blieb Schöftland bis ins 19. Jahrhundert hinein landwirtschaftlich geprägt, ergänzt durch Baumwollverarbeitung in Heimarbeit. Zwar misslang 1851 die Einführung der Strohflechterei, doch siedelten sich allmählich mehrere Industriebetriebe an. Die Eröffnung der Suhrentalbahn erfolgte am 19. November 1901, worauf die Industrie einen Aufschwung erfuhr. Seit 1900 ist die Bevölkerungszahl um mehr als das Dreifache angestiegen, wobei es zwischen 1970 und 1990 eine Stagnationsphase gab.

Seit November 2009 war an der Suhre in Schöftland das erste Wasserwirbelkraftwerk der Schweiz in Betrieb. Die Anlage erzeugte jährlich 100'000 bis 130'000 Kilowattstunden (kWh) Strom. Im Januar 2011 verlieh das Bundesamt für Energie dem Kraftwerk den Energiepreis Watt d'Or in der Kategorie erneuerbare Energien. Die Betreibergesellschaft ging 2016 in Konkurs. Die defekte Anlage wurde 2019 auf Kosten des Kantons Aargau vorab aus ökologischen Gründen rückgebaut.

Sehenswürdigkeiten

Das Schloss Schöftland wurde 1660 erbaut. An derselben Stelle befand sich im Mittelalter ein kleiner Burgturm, der im Sempacherkrieg zerstört wurde. Seit 1917 ist das Schloss im Besitz der Einwohnergemeinde und dient als Sitz der Gemeindeverwaltung. Die Reformierte Kirche entstand 1506 im spätgotischen Stil. 1683 wurde das Kirchenschiff durch einen Brand zerstört und danach im Barockstil verbreitert wieder aufgebaut. Erhalten geblieben sind der Chor und der nördlich daran angebaute Kirchturm. 1979–1980 errichtete Walter Moser die katholische Kirche Heilige Familie.

Das 2010 eröffnete RapidMuseum zeigt in der eigens zu diesem Zweck umgebauten Lüscher-Schüür rund 80 Rapid-Motormäher, von den Ursprüngen im Jahr 1926 bis heute.

Wappen
Die Blasonierung des Gemeindewappens lautet: «In Gelb rotes Andreaskreuz.» In den Bilderchroniken des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts wurde Schöftland irrtümlicherweise das seit 1340 nachweisbare Wappen der Herren von Hattstatt aus dem Elsass zugewiesen, obwohl diese keinerlei Beziehungen zum Dorf hatten.

Bevölkerung
Die Einwohnerzahlen entwickelten sich wie folgt:

Am  lebten  Menschen in Schöftland, der Ausländeranteil betrug  %. Bei der Volkszählung 2015 bezeichneten sich 42,5 % als reformiert und 23,8 % als römisch-katholisch; 33,7 % waren konfessionslos oder gehörten anderen Glaubensrichtungen an. 89,5 % gaben bei der Volkszählung 2000 Deutsch als ihre Hauptsprache an, 3,7 % Italienisch und 3,0 % Albanisch.

Politik und Recht
Die Versammlung der Stimmberechtigten, die Gemeindeversammlung, übt die Legislativgewalt aus. Ausführende Behörde ist der fünfköpfige Gemeinderat. Er wird im Majorzverfahren vom Volk gewählt, seine Amtsdauer beträgt vier Jahre. Der Gemeinderat führt und repräsentiert die Gemeinde. Dazu vollzieht er die Beschlüsse der Gemeindeversammlung und die Aufgaben, die ihm vom Kanton zugeteilt wurden. Für Rechtsstreitigkeiten ist in erster Instanz das Bezirksgericht Kulm zuständig. Schöftland gehört zum Friedensrichterkreis IX (Unterkulm).

Wirtschaft
In Schöftland gibt es gemäss der im Jahr 2015 erhobenen Statistik der Unternehmensstruktur (STATENT) rund 1700 Arbeitsplätze, davon 2 % in der Landwirtschaft, 23 % in der Industrie und 75 % im Dienstleistungsbereich. Die Industriebetriebe sind kleinere und mittlere Unternehmen in den Bereichen Textilien, Maschinenbau, Metall- und Holzverarbeitung, Hoch- und Tiefbau sowie im grafischen Gewerbe. Der grösste Arbeitgeber im Dienstleistungsbereich ist die öffentliche Hand, so die Schule mit der regionalen Oberstufe und das Suhrental Alterszentrum, weitere Arbeitsplätze bieten Detailhandel, Banken und Versicherungen sowie Beratungs- und Gesundheitsdienstleister. Schöftland ist das Regionalzentrum des mittleren Suhrentals und hat deshalb zahlreiche Zupendler aus den umliegenden Gemeinden. Viele Erwerbstätige, die in Schöftland selbst leben, sind Wegpendler und arbeiten in Aarau und Umgebung.

Verkehr
Die Gemeinde ist ausgezeichnet erschlossen. Sie liegt an der Hauptstrasse 24 zwischen Aarau und Sursee. Weitere wichtige Strassen führen ins Ruedertal, ins Uerkental und über den Böhlerpass nach Unterkulm. Westlich des Dorfes verläuft eine Umfahrungsstrasse, die gleichzeitig als Zubringer zum Anschluss Aarau-West der Autobahn A1 dient. Der Bahnhof Schöftland ist die südliche Endstation der Suhrentalbahn nach Aarau; am Nordweg gibt es eine weitere Haltestelle. Vom Bahnhof aus führen Postautolinien nach Schmiedrued und zum Bahnhof Sursee sowie eine Buslinie zum Bahnhof Zofingen. An Wochenenden verkehrt ein Nachtbus vom Bahnhof Aarau über Schöftland nach Kölliken.

Bildung
Die Gemeinde verfügt über zwei Kindergärten und vier Schulhäuser, in denen sämtliche Stufen der obligatorischen Volksschule absolviert werden können (Primarschule, Realschule, Sekundarschule und Bezirksschule). Die nächstgelegenen Gymnasien sind die Alte Kantonsschule und die Neue Kantonsschule, beide in Aarau.

2012-2013 LIB Project, LIB Market Analysis on China / Techno Systems Research Co., Ltd.
"2012-2013 LIB Project, LIB Market Analysis on China" report clarifies Chinese Li-ion battery market structure and constantly-changing surrounding environment, as well as tier-2 market size and application changes.
Beside popular players including BYD, ATL, Lishen, and BAK, which have been shipping their products to the global market, there are several hundreds of other domestic Li-ion battery makers. Most of the tier-2 makers are engaged in selling low end Li-ion battery to the local market (in this report, TSR label them as "China Domestic makers"), which major industry players do not count, thus paid less attention. However, the Chinese domestic makers have been building a one big market.
Importantly, for the past one year, there has been a substantial change in the China domestic market; namely in smart phone and power bank.
In the Chinese Li-ion battery material makers, the players have been enjoying their advantages of having a massive home demand, rich in natural resources, lower labor cost, and strong boost from their government. Furthermore, the Chinese Li-ion battery material makers have been growing steadily and have been enlarging their shipment volume to overseas Li-ion battery cell makers in Japan and in Korea. Especially in 2012, the Chinese Li-ion battery material makers have significantly increased their market presence in the global market, thus that the material market structure has profoundly changed from a few years ago.
Accordingly, the Chinese market, which had been paid less recognition in the past, has become a powerhouse in the industry, and experiencing a giant leap to become major manufacturers both in Li-ion battery and materials. At the same time, there is some instability and uncertainties in their abilities. Therefore, huge fluctuations are also expected in the future as well.
So what kind of business that Li-ion battery and material makers are doing, and how will they grow further? Moreover, how the Chinese xEV industry, which previously labeled as a dark horse, will become under the Xi administration?
This marketing report puts a spot light to the growing influence of the Chinese market to clarify the reality of it from various angles.
Although this report covers the Chinese Li-ion battery market comprehensively, combination use with " 2012-2013 edition LIB Material Market Analysis " (released in March, 2013) will further support the readers with wide-ranged understandings of the market.

A: If there are leading or trailing spaces, it'll be invalid.
Trailing and leading spaces can be removed as
mystring = mystring.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, "");

Source: JavaScript: trim leading or trailing spaces from a string

A: It seems you want to stringify the object, not parse. So do this:
JSON.stringify(products);

The reason for the error is that JSON.parse() expects a String value and products is an Array.
Note: I think it attempts json.parse('[object Array]') which complains it didn't expect token o after [.

A: I found the same issue with JSON.parse(inputString).
In my case, the input string is coming from my server page (return of a page method).
I printed the typeof(inputString) - it was string, but still the error occurs.
I also tried JSON.stringify(inputString), but it did not help.
Later I found this to be an issue with the new line operator [\n], inside a field value.
I did a replace (with some other character, put the new line back after parse) and everything was working fine.

A: JSON.parse is waiting for a String in parameter. You need to stringify your JSON object to solve the problem.
products = [{"name":"Pizza","price":"10","quantity":"7"}, {"name":"Cerveja","price":"12","quantity":"5"}, {"name":"Hamburguer","price":"10","quantity":"2"}, {"name":"Fraldas","price":"6","quantity":"2"}];
console.log(products);
var b = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(products));  //solves the problem

A: Here's a function I made based on previous replies: it works on my machine but YMMV.
/**
   * @description Converts a string response to an array of objects.
   * @param {string} string - The string you want to convert.
   * @returns {array} - an array of objects.
  */
function stringToJson(input) {
  var result = [];

  // Replace leading and trailing [], if present
  input = input.replace(/^\[/, '');
  input = input.replace(/\]$/, '');

  // Change the delimiter to
  input = input.replace(/},{/g, '};;;{');

  // Preserve newlines, etc. - use valid JSON
  //https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14432165/uncaught-syntaxerror-unexpected-token-with-json-parse
  input = input.replace(/\\n/g, "\\n")
               .replace(/\\'/g, "\\'")
               .replace(/\\"/g, '\\"')
               .replace(/\\&/g, "\\&")
               .replace(/\\r/g, "\\r")
               .replace(/\\t/g, "\\t")
               .replace(/\\b/g, "\\b")
               .replace(/\\f/g, "\\f");

  // Remove non-printable and other non-valid JSON characters
  input = input.replace(/[\u0000-\u0019]+/g, "");

  input = input.split(';;;');

  input.forEach(function(element) {
    //console.log(JSON.stringify(element));

    result.push(JSON.parse(element));
  }, this);

  return result;
}

A: products is an object.  (creating from an object literal)
JSON.parse() is used to convert a string containing JSON notation into a Javascript object.
Your code turns the object into a string (by calling .toString()) in order to try to parse it as JSON text.
The default .toString() returns "[object Object]", which is not valid JSON; hence the error.

A: You should validate your JSON string here.
A valid JSON string must have double quotes around the keys:
JSON.parse({"u1":1000,"u2":1100})       // will be ok

If there are no quotes, it will cause an error:
JSON.parse({u1:1000,u2:1100})
// error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 2

Using single quotes will also cause an error:
JSON.parse({'u1':1000,'u2':1100})
// error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ' in JSON at position 1

A: One other gotcha that can result in "SyntaxError: Unexpected token" exception when calling JSON.parse() is using any of the following in the string values:

*

*New-line characters.

*Tabs (yes, tabs that you can produce with the Tab key!)

*Any stand-alone slash \ (but for some reason not /, at least not on Chrome.)
(For a full list see the String section here.)
For instance the following will get you this exception:
{
    "msg" : {
        "message": "It cannot
contain a new-line",
        "description": "Some discription with a     tabbed space is also bad",
        "value": "It cannot have 3\4 un-escaped"
    }
}

So it should be changed to:
{
    "msg" : {
        "message": "It cannot\ncontain a new-line",
        "description": "Some discription with a\t\ttabbed space",
        "value": "It cannot have 3\\4 un-escaped"
    }
}

Which, I should say, makes it quite unreadable in JSON-only format with larger amount of text.

A: Let's say you know it's valid JSON, but you're are still getting this...
In that case, it's likely that there are hidden/special characters in the string from whatever source your getting them. When you paste into a validator, they are lost - but in the string they are still there. Those characters, while invisible, will break JSON.parse().
If s is your raw JSON, then clean it up with:
// Preserve newlines, etc. - use valid JSON
s = s.replace(/\\n/g, "\\n")
               .replace(/\\'/g, "\\'")
               .replace(/\\"/g, '\\"')
               .replace(/\\&/g, "\\&")
               .replace(/\\r/g, "\\r")
               .replace(/\\t/g, "\\t")
               .replace(/\\b/g, "\\b")
               .replace(/\\f/g, "\\f");
// Remove non-printable and other non-valid JSON characters
s = s.replace(/[\u0000-\u0019]+/g,"");
var o = JSON.parse(s);

A: products = [{"name":"Pizza","price":"10","quantity":"7"}, {"name":"Cerveja","price":"12","quantity":"5"}, {"name":"Hamburguer","price":"10","quantity":"2"}, {"name":"Fraldas","price":"6","quantity":"2"}];

change to
products = '[{"name":"Pizza","price":"10","quantity":"7"}, {"name":"Cerveja","price":"12","quantity":"5"}, {"name":"Hamburguer","price":"10","quantity":"2"}, {"name":"Fraldas","price":"6","quantity":"2"}]';

A: My issue was that I had commented HTML in a PHP callback function via Ajax that was parsing the comments and return invalid JSON.
Once I removed the commented HTML, all was good and the JSON was parsed without any issues.

A: When you are using the POST or PUT method, make sure to stringify the body part.
I have documented an example here at
https://gist.github.com/manju16832003/4a92a2be693a8fda7ca84b58b8fa7154

A: [
  {
    "name": "Pizza",
    "price": "10",
    "quantity": "7"
  },
  {
    "name": "Cerveja",
    "price": "12",
    "quantity": "5"
  },
  {
    "name": "Hamburguer",
    "price": "10",
    "quantity": "2"
  },
  {
    "name": "Fraldas",
    "price": "6",
    "quantity": "2"
  }
]

Here is your perfect JSON content that you can parse.

A: The only mistake is you are parsing an already-parsed object, so it's throwing an error. Use this and you will be good to go.

var products = [{
  "name": "Pizza",
  "price": "10",
  "quantity": "7"
}, {
  "name": "Cerveja",
  "price": "12",
  "quantity": "5"
}, {
  "name": "Hamburguer",
  "price": "10",
  "quantity": "2"
}, {
  "name": "Fraldas",
  "price": "6",
  "quantity": "2"
}];
console.log(products[0].name); // Name of item at 0th index

If you want to print the entire JSON content, use JSON.stringify().

A: products is an array which can be used directly:
var i, j;

for(i=0; i<products.length; i++)
  for(j in products[i])
    console.log("property name: " + j, "value: " + products[i][j]);

A: Now apparently \r, \b, \t, \f, etc. aren't the only problematic characters that can give you this error.
Note that some browsers may have additional requirements for the input of JSON.parse.
Run this test code in your browser:
var arr = [];
for(var x=0; x < 0xffff; ++x){
    try{
        JSON.parse(String.fromCharCode(0x22, x, 0x22));
    }catch(e){
        arr.push(x);
    }
}
console.log(arr);

Testing on Chrome, I see that it doesn't allow JSON.parse(String.fromCharCode(0x22, x, 0x22)); where x is 34, 92, or from 0 to 31.
Characters 34 and 92 are the " and \ characters respectively, and they are usually expected and properly escaped. It's characterss 0 to 31 that would give you problems.
To help with debugging, before you do JSON.parse(input), first verify that the input doesn't contain problematic characters:
function VerifyInput(input){
    for(var x=0; x<input.length; ++x){
        let c = input.charCodeAt(x);
        if(c >= 0 && c <= 31){
            throw 'problematic character found at position ' + x;
        }
    }
}

A: Oh man, solutions in all previous answers didn't work for me.  I had a similar problem just now.  I managed to solve it with wrapping with the quote. See the screenshot. Whoo.

Original:

var products = [{
  "name": "Pizza",
  "price": "10",
  "quantity": "7"
}, {
  "name": "Cerveja",
  "price": "12",
  "quantity": "5"
}, {
  "name": "Hamburguer",
  "price": "10",
  "quantity": "2"
}, {
  "name": "Fraldas",
  "price": "6",
  "quantity": "2"
}];
console.log(products);
var b = JSON.parse(products); //unexpected token o

A: The error you are getting, i.e., "unexpected token o", is because JSON is expected, but an object is obtained while parsing. That "o" is the first letter of word "object".

A: It can happen for a lot of reasons, but probably for an invalid character, so you can use JSON.stringify(obj); that will turn your object into a JSON, but remember that it is a jQuery expression.

A: In my case there are the following character problems in my JSON string:

*

*\r

*\t

*\r\n

*\n

*:

*"

I have replaced them with other characters or symbols, and then reverted back again from coding.

A: This is now a JavaScript array of objects, not JSON format. To convert it into JSON format, you need to use a function called JSON.stringify().
JSON.stringify(products)

A: Use eval. It takes JavaScript expression/code as string and evaluates/executes it.
eval(inputString);

A: Why do you need JSON.parse? It's already in an array-of-object format.
Better use JSON.stringify as below:
var b = JSON.stringify(products);

A: The mistake I was doing was passing null (unknowingly) into JSON.parse().
So it threw Unexpected token n in JSON at position 0.
But this happens whenever you pass something which is not a JavaScript Object in JSON.parse().

Dominated by the high towers of a fortified château dating back to 14th century, surrounded by verdant countryside, the Parc de Montsabert is one of the loveliest campsites in Maine et Loire. Located less than 30 kilometres to the south-east of Angers, in the commune of Coutures, just a stone's throw from the tourist route of the Loire Valley and from Saumar, this 4-star campsite is a member of the Yelloh! Village group.
It is just a stone's throw from Angers, the capital of the Maine et Loire département, and the starting point for the Vallée des Rois (Valley of Kings), that the Parc de Montsabert campsite is located. The latter enjoys one of the most delightful settings with its wooded and landscaped campsite set up in the vicinity of a fortified château, the initial foundations of which date back to the 14th century. It was subsequently converted into a small fortress by the Constable, Bertrand Du Guesclin, when he became the Lord.
Characterised by peace and quiet and space, the Parc de Montsabert stretches over a 10-hectare campsite. At the foot of the trees scattered over this luxury Anjou campsite, some of which are more than 100 years old, a multitude of chalets and cottages are offered as holiday rentals. Spacious and comfortable, they can accommodate, dependent upon their configuration, from 2 to 7 people. It is worth noting that it is also possible, for lovers of glamping to stay in out-of-the-ordinary gypsy caravans with a living room, a fitted kitchen, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.
Campsite pitches are divided into 4 different ranges having, in all cases, a 10-amp mains electrical connection and a mains water point. Pitches are 2, 3 and 4 star, as well as the Premium plots which are also available. The latter extend over more than 150 m² and have, in addition, a mains drainage system, a garden furniture set, a barbecue, an arbour, tyre treads and free connection to the campsite Wi-Fi.
Located halfway between Angers and Saumur, the Le Parc de Montsabert campsite has a multitude of services able to meet holidaymakers' needs. Amongst the latter, note the presence of an entirely new grocery, an outlet for fresh bread and sweet breads and buns such as brioches, croissants and pains au chocolat, a bar, a restaurant, a snack-bar – pizzeria – takeaway, a launderette and even a concierge service!
On-site, holidaymakers are spoilt for choice as to how to spend their time. Although the campsite's tranquillity forces people towards relaxation and idleness, it is also possible to have fun and spend delightful moments as a family or with friends.
The aquatic park of the Parc de Montsabert campsite stretches over a surface area of 800 m². This is made up of a superb heated indoor swimming pool, a paddling pool, a small children's water slide, as well as large water slides which are not lacking in delight for enthusiasts of such activities.
Unique in the region, Yellito Parc proves to be a genuine temple of fun. This indoor location, with a surface area of 450 m², is open for children and parents. It shelters several inflatable games, but also play facilities, ping-pong tables, arcade games, and others.
A stay in the heart of châteaux, vineyards and troglodyte sites of the Pays de la Loire (the western area of the Loire Valley).
The Le Parc de Montsabert campsite also has a multi-sports ground, 2 tennis courts, a pétanque terrain, a mini-golf course, trampolines, an outdoor playground, a mountain bike trail, an archery range and a library. New for 2018, a treetop adventure course completes the offer of entertainment at this campsite in Coutures. Moreover, to crown it all off, all of the facilities listed above are free!
In addition for your information, this campsite has a well-being space where you can have a massage and/or enjoy body and face care, beauty treatments, manicures, pedicures, and other treatments.
Staying at the Parc de Montsabert campsite, also provides the opportunity to make the most of its geographical location to go out and explore the most beautiful tourist sites of the Maine et Loire département. With its impressive château, medieval alleyways, half-timbered houses and museums, Angers can be visited in a day. The Saumur, Brissac Quincé and Montreuil Bellay châteaux, and even Le Plessis Macé château are worth the visit. In addition, the same can be said of the troglodyte cave sites of the Loire valley, for the most part located around Saumur.
Lastly, the Doué la Fontaine zoo, as well as the vineyards of Saumur, the Coteaux du Layon and the Coteaux de l'Aubance (all sweet white wines), are tourist sites of leading importance in Anjou, contributing to the influence and appeal of this region full of charm and surprises.

Jammin' Every Which Way at Waterville Valley this Weekend
Mar 28 2005 - 12:25 PM
WATERVILLE VALLEY, New Hampshire ??" Waterville Valley is serving up some springtime jammin' this Saturday, April 2. Following the Volcom Peanut Butter and Rail Jam competition in the Exhibition Terrain Park, six bands will be mixing it up and jammin' in the base area for Waterville Valley's Spring Fling Mountain Jam.
Waterville Valley's Volcom PB and Rail Jam, on Saturday, April 2, is the season's final park event. The Peanut Butter and Rail Jam is Volcom's amateur snowboard series. The goal of the series is to provide a fresh format for all kids to enjoy. Instead of having three rails in a row, they will be placed side-by-side to create a rail zone. This concept brings all the contestants closer together – riding, hiking and watching in a big group. The judging also differs, as this is a real jam – meaning there are no rules. Boarders can hit the rails as many times as they want and in whatever order they choose. The judges only care about the tricks that riders do pull off and not the ones they
don't.
Registration is free and opens at 7:30 a.m. There will be two divisions: 16 and younger and 17 and older. The event will be limited to the first 90 registrants and a strong turnout is anticipated. The competition will begin at 11 a.m. with fantastic prizes from Volcom on the line. Everyone who enters walks away with something, even if it's just a sense of satisfaction and a good peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
The jammin' at Waterville Valley continues off the slopes on April 2, when six bands on three stages play for the Spring Fling Mountain Jam. Reggae makes the apres scene and then the doors open at 6:30 p.m. for three simultaneous concerts. For the rock audience, the Main Base Lodge will host the bands The Grift and Averi. For those in search of some low down blues tunes, T-Bars presents the Scott Good Band and Lydia Warren. Finally, in the Upper Base Lodge, reggae acts The Well and Vibewise will groove the crowd. Tickets are only $12 in advance and $15 at the door.
With spring skiing and riding at its best, what better way to enjoy the season than by extending a visit to Waterville Valley. Midweek Ski and Stay packages at Waterville Valley begin at $39 per person. This "Spring it On" package includes one night's lodging in a two bedroom condo at Town Square and a full-day lift ticket. The $39 rate is per person, per night, based on quad occupancy and includes tax and resort fee. A similar double-occupancy package is $49 per person and offers guests one night's lodging in a one bedroom condo with lift tickets. These packages are valid for lodging Sunday through Thursday nights and skiing Monday through Friday. Admission to the White Mountain Athletic
Club is also included.
For more information, please visit www.waterville.com, or call 1-800-GO-VALLEY.

Most people are not aware that baby care products such as shampoos, lotions and powders may expose infants to chemicals (including fragrance) that have been linked with negative side effects. I have seen many skin problems erupt on little babies due to the harmful ingredients in some products.
The chemicals, called phthalates, are found in many ordinary products including toys, baby care and hair products, cosmetics and even vinyl flooring. They are used to stabilize fragrances and make plastics flexible.
In one study of baby care products, phthalates were found in elevated levels in the urine of babies who'd been recently shampooed, powdered or lotioned with baby products.
Unfortunately, these chemicals often don't appear on product labels since retail products aren't required to list individual ingredients of fragrances, which are a common phthalate source.
In a another study, over 150 babies between the ages 2 to 28 months were examined. The researchers measured levels of several phthalates from baby care products including lotions, powders, diaper creams and baby wipes by examining the urine from their diapers. All urine samples had detectable levels of at least one phthalate, and most had levels of several more.
The highest levels were linked with shampoos, lotions and powders, and were most prevalent in babies younger than 8 months.
Another useless ingredient is MINERAL OIL which is primarily used as a cheap filler in so many products. Since it coats the skin and clogs the pores and does not, therefore allow moisture in, it can cause acne, irritation, dandruff and skin dryness.
Very sadly, many children's and baby care bath products contain chemicals that can trigger allergies and also greatly irritate the nasal and respiratory passages.
In conclusion, I feel there is an obvious need for laws that force the baby care industry to reveal all of the chemicals contained in their products. The bottom line is that these chemicals that are commonly being used on our children can potentially cause health problems.
