The critical items are to have the entire assembly painted black for maximum absorbtion, and the water tubing as small as possible to give the maximum heat transfer.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP/NewsChannel 5) - Honorably discharged veterans may now obtain specially designated driver's licenses in Tennessee.
The licenses recognizing veterans' military service were authorized under a 2011 state law, but the designation could not be included until a recent redesign of Tennessee driver's licenses.
The announcement was made Thursday by The Department of Safety and Homeland Security in conjunction with the Department of Veterans Affairs Commission.
The new licenses feature an image of the state Capitol and a skyline of other recognizable structures such as the Pyramid in Memphis, the Sunsphere in Knoxville and the skyscraper known as the "Batman Building" in Nashville.
Veterans must present their discharge papers to receive the special designation on their licenses or photo ID cards. No extra fee applies for the designation when licenses are renewed.

Education History:
B.A. – St. Lawrence University
Current Professional/Research Interest:
I'm currently researching LED (light-emitting diode) lighting and it's ability to take over for conventional lighting in theater. My predecessor started to upgrade St. Lawrence's lighting inventory back in 2008 when he purchased thirty LED lighting units. The LED lights used less energy and gave lighting designers much more flexibility in regards to color choices, however, they lacked the color temperature and intensity that conventional lights provided. I'm currently looking into new LED lighting technology to see if we can completely move over to LED lights without sacrificing color temperature and intensity.
Recent Publication/Conferences:
In June 2011, I produced several instructional videos on how to circuit, program, and operate ETC Selador and Chroma Q LED lights.
This past summer, I participated in an ETC Ion lighting console workshop at the New York Live Arts Performance Center in New York City. I worked alongside Broadway lighting designers, board operators, and fellow technical directors to learn more about advanced programming, creating effects, and magic sheets. I also learned about working with control networks and Eos family systems.
Personal Interests:
I enjoy attending live music events, helping out with local productions, kayaking, and ice-skating on the Rideau Canal in Ottawa. Also, although it's a rare occasion, I enjoy going out for wings with my colleagues.

prll is a utility for parallelizing the execution of shell functions. It provides a convenient interface for parallelizing the execution of a single task over multiple data files or any other kind of data that you can pass as a shell function argument. It is meant to make it simple to fully utilize a multicore/multiprocessor machine. prll is designed to be used not just in shell scripts, but also in interactive shells. To make the latter convenient, it is implemented as a shell function. Shells are not very good at automatic job management, so prll uses helper programs, written in C. To prevent race conditions, System V Message Queues are used to signal job completion. Standard output is buffered and Semaphores are used to prevent interleaving.
Likwid is a set of easy to use command line tools for Linux. It supports programmers in developing high performance multi-threaded programs. "Likwid" stands for "Like I knew what I am doing". It contains the following tools: likwid-topology, which shows thread and cache topology; likwid-perfctr, which measures hardware performance counters on Intel and AMD processors; likwid-features, which shows and toggles hardware prefetch control bits on Intel Core 2 processors; likwid-pin, which pins a threaded application without touching its code (it supports pthreads, Intel OpenMP, and gcc OpenMP), likwid-powermeter which prints the Turbo mode steps and measures energy consumption on supported Intel processors, and likwid-bench, a low level benchmarking framework. It works with any standard Linux kernel. Likwid is lightweight and adds no overhead during measurements.
GNU parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel locally or using remote computers. A job is typically a single command or a small script that has to be run for each of the lines in the input. The typical input is a list of files, a list of hosts, a list of users, a list of URLs, or a list of tables. If you use xargs today you will find GNU parallel very easy to use, as GNU parallel is written to have the same options as xargs. If you write loops in shell, you will find GNU parallel may be able to replace most of the loops and make them run faster by running several jobs in parallel. GNU parallel makes sure output from the commands is the same output as you would get had you run the commands sequentially. This makes it possible to use output from GNU parallel as input for other programs.

My buddy Alexi was camped out at the Walmart for 36 hours after which he scored a Playstation 3 bundle. At the end of the ordeal, he listed his item on ebay with a starting bid of 99 cents and a "Buy It Now" option of $2800. I bet him a week of lunches he wouldn't sell it for more than $1230. Well, I might have been wrong… His auction closed last night at $1375 and he posted his menu. By my calculations he might have made ~$10/hour over those 36 hours for sleeping in a folding chair and weathering a day of rain and thunderstorms: $1375 – $750 PS3 & Accessories, $125 to move ahead in line, estimated eBay & PayPal & shipping fees = ~$350.
Was it worth it? Well, we'll never know… His winning bidder backed out, saying he won the auction by accident. I feel bad for my buddy, but I'm not surprised how this played out on ebay — I've experienced this several times myself and list most things via Buy It Now to save myself the hassle. True, a winning bid is a contract but who's going to enforce it and at what cost?
Alexi is debating his options at this point. The ebay market has been flooded with thousands of listings and prices are dropping, so he's considering either working a local deal through Craigslist or actually playing (!) the PS3 for a few weeks until it gets closer to the holiday and then giving ebay another shot.
For all you doubters out there, Alexi and I have had probably half a dozen lunch or gadget bets like this over the last few months and he's lost every single one. Why would this be any different? Time to get started on my menu!

A Short Course In Choosing Or Building The Right Axle
Out on the trail you'll see axle extremes-big-tire rigs with spindly little axles, and others with monster-sized axles. The little axles would probably run from those big tires, screaming in terror, if they could. Those massive axles weigh as much as a V-8 engine, are three times stronger than they need to be and cost big bucks. Neither extreme is particularly elegant or efficient. There's got to be a "Three Bears" just-right point. And there is. We're going to show you how to find it.
The axle in your 4x4 is caught in the middle of a tussle between driveline torque (see glossary below for unfamiliar terms) and the grip offered by your tires. As long as the tires lose grip before the torque load exceeds the breaking point of some part in the axle, you're fine. The problem is that tire grip is 50 percent of the trail-performance equation (traction + clearance = trail performance) and it is grip that makes difficult 'wheeling possible. Fortunately, grip is in short supply on most trails. That's why you see rigs with smallish axles surviving.
Grip starts with the ground, or driving surface and is measured as a Coefficient of Friction (CoF). It's really more than just the ground, because some tires will provide better grip on a particular surface than others. Perfect grip is expressed as a 1.0 CoF. Actually, some racecar tires on special pavement can reach 1.5 or higher. Normal pavement and normal tires usually achieve a CoF of between 0.6 and 0.8. Rock may have about the same CoF as pavement. Hard dirt runs from 0.3 to 0.4. Mud can run from 0.1 to 0.3, while ice can run from a fraction above 0 to 0.15.
Vehicle weight plays a big part in this. More weight on a tire equals more grip on a hard surface, but it takes more drivetrain torque (and strength) to move more weight. Plus, heavy rigs are a liability in soft ground, so weight definitely is a double-edged sword. Bottom line, more weight equals more traction on a hard surface (to a point), but it then becomes more possible to exceed the torque capacity of the axle. Keeping the tires aired up, by the way, can act as a fuse. An aired-up tire will slip sooner than an aired-down tire 98 percent of the time. You won't make every obstacle, but you aren't as likely to break axle components. Tire grip is also expressed as traction torque, or the amount of torque the tire/ground combo can support. Traction torque is an equation that factors the weight of the tire, the CoF and the tire radius. Increase or decrease any of these values and you increase or decrease traction.
Axle-torque loads increase with tire diameter. This is because a larger-diameter tire makes more traction torque at the same weight than a smaller one. Going from a 31- to a 37-inch tire increases the torque load on the axle by about 20 percent because the tire can hold 20 percent more torque. That's independent of the increased loads that may come from other factors, such as lockers or really sticky tires. Another element is the rotational inertia, or flywheel effect, from the added rotational mass of a big tire. The larger the tire, the more torque it takes to start it into motion and the more it takes to slow it down. Additionally, four-wheeling tires and wheels are usually pretty heavy. This is mostly a negative issue when tires are spinning because it can multiply momentary or "spiked" torque loads. This added weight also is what makes bigger tires harder to stop when you've got them out on the road.
Most of you know that the traction available to an open differential is essentially limited to the amount of grip one tire can supply. That's the primary reason for lockers and limited-slips, so that when one tire on an axle loses traction, the other can still move the vehicle. That's great for getting through an obstacle but it may be tough on the axle. Normally, a 4x4 shares the total traction torque required to move the vehicle between all four tires. Weight transfer (see Vehicle Dynamics, below) or poor ground surfaces may reduce the traction of tires at one end or one side of the vehicle and increase it at the other. In rockcrawling situations, you may have a weight-transfer situation where one tire has a whole lot of the total weight and is providing 90 percent of the tractive effort. A locker will allow 100 percent of the axle torque to go to that one axleshaft, at least to the limit of grip for that tire. If the grip exceeds what that one axle can stand, the shaft breaks. A rig with an open diff or even a limited-slip will long since have given up, spun the lightly loaded tire and saved the axle. The bottom line is that if you run a true locker, your axle strength needs are greater than if you run an open diff or a limited-slip-but if you do run a locker, your rig's ability to conquer terrain is greater.
The aspect of vehicle dynamics that causes many broken axle parts is weight transfer. When your vehicle climbs, descends or is tilted on any axis, weight is transferred from the high side to the low side. That unloads the high tires, reducing grip, and loads the low ones, increasing grip. Bear in mind that the distance between the tires, whether that's the wheelbase length or axle width, has an effect on weight transfer. More distance equals less transfer at any given angle, and vice versa.

When I first met Shirley Chambers in 2000, she'd lost three children to gun violence. She had one child left, Ronnie Chambers, who was then 21. Because word of each child's death had arrived with a call, she hated the sound of her telephone ringing.
Early Saturday, about 3:30 a.m., she was awakened by that familiar sound, with news that she'd been dreading for more than a decade.
"I was told Ronnie had been shot," Chambers, 54, told me during an interview Monday. "I was so distraught. I jumped out of the bed and drove over to my sister's house on the West Side. And we waited there because Ronnie's father was on the scene and we didn't know what to do.
"We didn't want to go running over there and run into danger ourselves. My niece had already been over there and couldn't get near the scene, so we stayed where we were until we got the news. When we did, I couldn't believe they were telling me my son was dead."
On Saturday, police said a gunman or gunmen opened fire on a van in the 1100 block of South Mozart Street, and Ronnie was inside.
By Monday, Chambers was sifting through grief and going through what, for her, has become a somber ritual — making funeral arrangements and shopping for new clothes to bury a child. For Ronnie, she purchased a gray suit.
Chambers said she's tired of the gun violence.
"It's so out of control," she said. "These young men just have to stop it. They are hurting mothers and fathers. We have love for our kids and it's killing us. They're taking our children and they don't have no heart. All four of my children are gone now — all of them gunned down. It's too much to take."
She said that although Ronnie had been in trouble before, he had changed his life and had begun working in the music industry.
Willie "J.R." Fleming, director of Chicago's Hip Hop Congress, said he helped Ronnie get started by connecting him to artists and producers.
"Ronnie was networking, trying to build up a unity movement and bring peace to the streets," Fleming said. "In December, when I saw him on 'The Ricki Lake Show,' and he was saying he had to get out of his surroundings in order to make a change, I was like, 'Yeah, that's right.'"
Chambers said she doesn't know why anyone would kill her son.
"Nobody knows why he was (on the West Side) at that time of night," she said. "It was very cold outside. I heard he had been at some type of promotional party and somehow he ended up over there."
On Monday, Chambers and other family members were at Johnson Funeral Home on West Division Street making arrangements for Ronnie when his body arrived from the medical examiner's office.
"I couldn't look at him," Chambers said. "It's bad what they did to him. My friend looked at him and got so sick. Whoever did this to my baby, they were intending to do it and I just hope the police find them and take this case seriously and get these people off the street."
Chambers' son Carlos was 18 when he was shot and killed just after Thanksgiving 1995 at Jackson Boulevard and State Street. The shooting followed a run-in with a classmate at Jones Metropolitan High School.
I met Chambers for a Tribune story in 2000, after she had lost two more children within three months. Her daughter LaToya, 15, was fatally shot in the lobby of a Cabrini-Green high-rise, and her son Jerome, 23, was killed while standing at a pay phone in the 400 block of West Chicago Avenue.
At the time, Chambers was living in a Cabrini-Green town house. She told me that Ronnie sometimes came by to help her with chores, but he was living with friends.
One afternoon while I was interviewing Chambers, Ronnie visited. He told me that he wanted to stop by more often, but it was too difficult because the home was filled with so many memories and mementos of his late siblings, including photographs and flowers.
"It's the flowers," he told me. "It reminds me of a funeral home. It even smells like a funeral home in here."
On Monday, Chambers said that living in that town house overwhelmed her as well. She moved in 2005 to an apartment not far away on North Crosby Street.
"I just wanted to get away from the place," she said. "I didn't want to be there if I couldn't have my children there anymore."
Two weeks ago, Ronnie moved back in with Chambers, she said. The last time she saw him was Wednesday.
"He was so happy," she said. "He was talking about the big holiday dinner I'd made. Ronnie would come over and bring friends and he'd have this huge plate of food. He was so funny. He said, 'My momma hooked me up and she's looking out for me.'"
She paused to catch her breath.
"He was my baby," she said. "He wanted to make sure I was taken care of and I was OK. I was praying so hard that he would be safe."

Mon-Sat 8am-9pm
Sun 8am-6pm
So Wednesday my boyfriend suprised me with a dozen pink roses from here, by the next day 3 roses of 12 were dropped and dead, so he called and spoke to the male associate who made the bouquet and told him what was going on an he proceeded to tell him that I need to take better care of my flowers. Not only is that unprofessional and rude, but I've had many roses, who ever made the boquet took already bloomed roses and just took off the already bloomed petals to make then look like they haven't bloomed, you can clearly tell that's what he did because each closed dead rose has only about 6-8 petals.
Today's Saturday, 3 days later from receiving them 7 of 12 are dead.
Rude, lying employees who have no desire to fix there mistakes or make there customers happy. Will never go here again.
Bad Experience – Worst ever. Do not recommend it at all.
It was my wife's birthday and they had promised to get the flowers delivered to her but they could not find her at her place of work (when the cell phone was in the order).
The customer service is even worst. They don't have attitude to make the customer happy.
They ruined my day and a special occasion for us.
Will never use them again.

SOURCE Conseil du statut de la femme
Put women's safety first
QUÉBEC, Jan. 31, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ - The Conseil du statut de la femme du Québec released the English version of its report on the complex, largely hidden problem of honour crime. A first in Canada, the study documents the 17 cases of honour crime recorded in this country since 1991, only 5 of whose 26 victims survived. The Conseil urges decision makers to take action to protect girls and women from all forms of honour-based violence: excessive control, virginity tests, genital mutilation, forced marriage, incitement to suicide, and ultimately, murder.
In November 2011, in response to the Shafia affair, the Government of Québec gave a mandate to the Conseil du statut de la femme to study the phenomenon of honour crime.
One chapter explores all the honour crimes that have come to light in Canada over the last two decades. Through these 17 widely-reported cases, with special attention to the Shafia affair, the chapter provides a clear illustration of how honour-based violence can escalate to murder.
Also explored are Canadian initiatives to combat honour-based violence, including the concerted intervention model adopted by the Calgary Police Service. To extend its study internationally, the Conseil visited the United Kingdom to learn about its approaches to preventing honour crime.
" What's really troubling, " says Julie Miville-Dechêne, President of the Conseil, " is that murder is just the tip of the iceberg. Honour-based violence takes many forms, and they are increasingly common, especially psychological violence and excessive control over the sexuality of girls and women ". She went on to stress that the problem " is not exclusive to a particular culture or religion. The 26 Canadian victims had a variety of faiths and origins. "
These destructive practices are the fruit of a patriarchal culture that has marked all societies, but is deeply rooted in certain communities, especially those from India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka.
In the United Kingdom, specific measures have been taken to detect, counter and prevent honour-based violence. The Conseil believes we should follow that example, by taking action on multiple fronts to change ways of thinking and end honour-based violence. Accordingly, the Conseil has made a set of recommendations to the Government of Québec, applying to the political, legal and social spheres. They are presented in the conclusion of Honour Crime: From Indignation to Action, which is available on the Conseil's website at http://www.csf.gouv.qc.ca/modules/fichierspublications/fichier-29-1780.pdf.
The Conseil du statut de la femme is an autonomous research body, financed the Government of Québec. Its mission is to advise the Government and inform the population, on matters of equality between women and men. For more information, go to: www.placealegalite.gouv.qc.ca.

First to learn of the impending retirement of the state's longest-serving senator were the members of his inner circle at the Jones Vargas law firm. Citing his health problems, mostly a loss of mobility because of a serious Achilles tendon injury, Raggio told the assemblage that it was time for a younger person to replace him for the strenuous upcoming session of the Nevada State Legislature.
To give a full account of Raggio's resume would fill many pages of the Sparks Tribune. A Reno native who graduated from Reno High School and the University of Nevada, Reno he later got his law degree from Hastings Law School in the Bay Area. During World War II he spent two years in the the Navy and Marine Corps Reserve.
Returning to Reno with then-wife Dorothy he quickly was tapped to serve as an assistant district attorney for Washoe County by the D.A. Jack Streeter. In addition to serving under Streeter, Raggio spent another four years under D.A. Dyer Jensen before successfully running for his first term as district attorney in 1958. After three terms in office, during which time he received numerous national accolades, he was urged by President Richard Nixon to take a run at the U.S. Senate seat from Nevada, which at that time was held by Democrat Howard Cannon. Unfortunately, for Raggio's supporters, he lost that race but, fortunately for Nevada, he was then able to gear up for his stellar career as a state senator, which began with his first election in 1972.
Everyone knows what he has accomplished in Carson City and probably the two best summations of his tenure were crafted by political reporter John Ralston, who dubbed him "The Sentinel of the North" and later, during the term of Democrat Gov. Bob Miller, Ralston quipped: "In Carson City, Gov. Bob Miller is playing checkers while Sen. Bill Raggio is playing chess."
This writer first became acquainted with Raggio in 1957, when he represented me in a traffic incident. He prevailed in my favor with the help of famed San Francisco private detective, the late Hal Lipset. From that time on all three of us were involved in his district attorney campaigns as well as many community and social pursuits.
Probably the two most enduring tributes to Sen. Raggio are the education building that bears his name on the campus at UNR and the bust on display at the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. Creation of the Airport Authority is just one of the highlights of his political career.
What the average viewer does not see on the numerous television interviews of Raggio, mainly during legislative sessions, is his quick and droll sense of humor. That gift is best on display when he is called upon to speak at various occasions, both civic and social. Many years back, I was admiring the pride of lions that decorated a spot in his office. He had received the tiny copper statuettes of Leo every time he spoke at the Reno Lions club.
As a confidant of the highest members of the Republican party, the wall leading to his office is replete with photos of him with famous personages.
Like any true Nevadans, Raggio has been an outdoorsman all his life, specializing in hunting and fishing.
Many in the area have speculated that in leaving the senatorial post Raggio will kick back and live a more relaxed life. However, those who know him best say he will still be a very active lawyer and that his work ethic, which often sees him at his desk on Saturdays and Sundays, will never allow him that luxury. Close associates see him as becoming a sort of Barney Baruch, who will be on hand to advise and mentor up-and-coming members of his party. In that respect, he also has the admiration and genuine friendship of those outside the Republican fold.
It is unlikely that the Silver State will ever again see the likes of Raggio when it comes to statesmanship, leadership and overall political acumen.
Tomorrow is
Go Pack Day
At 6 p.m. Sunday the focus of the national sports world will be on the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl in San Francisco for the game between Nevada and Boston College. As the only football game on ESPN the viewing audience should be huge, as will the size of the Nevada fans in the stands.
Reams and reams have been written about this fine Nevada team that ranked nationally. The perfect topper would be a bowl victory for head coach Chris Ault.

There are only 3 or 4 WRs that deserve that kind of deal. And Wallace is not one of them.
Mike Wallace to sign with Miami Dolphins
Is Mike Wallace one of the top three or four wide receivers in the National Football League? The Miami Dolphins seem to think so.
Wallace was headed to Miami as the NFL's free-agency window opened, prepared to sign a five-year deal worth as much as $65 million with a whopping $30 million guaranteed, per ESPN's John Clayton. If those numbers prove true, Wallace's new deal would average out at $13 million per season, placing him third on the list of highest-paid receivers behind only Calvin Johnson and Larry Fitzgerald.
Given that Wallace is just 26 (he'll turn 27 in August) and already has 235 catches and more than 4,000 yards receiving to his name, you could make the argument that Miami just landed a player headed into his prime. However, he was inconsistent at best over his last few months in Pittsburgh, and the Steelers quickly deemed his asking price well out of their comfort zone.
With Brian Hartline signing a new deal worth a little more than $6 million per season last week, the Dolphins could be in up over $19 million for their top two receivers.
Wallace's presence alongside Hartline could do wonders for Ryan Tannehill, as he enters his second season as starter. Wallace's speed should provide the Dolphins with the deep threat they were missing last season.
But will there be enough big-play Tannehill-to-Wallace connections to justify that price tag?
Grade: B-minus. The Dolphins desperately needed a game-changer out wide, and Wallace can be that. It's hard to peg him as the NFL's No. 3 overall receiver, though — at least until he shows more consistency.
WOW!! Talk about overpaying...Wallace isn't even a top 20 WR........he will never play out the contract.....Fish welcome to toilet bowl!!
I think that Philbin will get Wallace to get the job done, or he will be cut , just like Chad, Marshal and Davis with the T.Owens type attitude.
Wallace to the Dolphins weakens his fantasy value, no doubt. Tannehill is average at best. But Wallace just got paid, so what does he care?
This guy is good when he wants to be. Buyer, be scared.
I love how these idiot sportswriters assign a grade after someone signs their name. B-? Did you come up with this scientifically or did you just have nothing else to write about? This is the equivalent of guessing what you will make on a test that you won't be taking for 5 months. Does SI have monkeys throwing darts to guess these facts?
If these numbers are accurate, then it's a good thing Wallace refused the Steelers' lowball offer of a year ago. Now the Steelers keep Antonio Brown, whose stats were less (every year, in every important category) than Wallace's. Well played, Pittsburgh! Keep the #2 type guy (at a pay scale that cannot be defended)!
Roll of the dice, very expensive dice with a 2nd year QB.
WOW...this guys isn't even a top 10...maybe not top 20 Wr in the league.......sorry dolphins...this guy will be on the cut list in a year or two.....
What does he care about sitting the bench, making no stats, then possible cut!! or maybe trade to the Titans. I bet he makes it to the probowl next year.
@riley8Who pissed in your corn flakes? It's just a guess. No different than picking the next Super Bowl winner.
@John4 Wallace had a total of 843 yds in 2012 (836 rec + 7 rush) with 15 games played. Brown had a total of 994 yds in 2012 (787 recv + 183 punt returns + 24 rush) on 13 games played. So even though Brown was out 2 more games he had more all purpose yds than Wallace, and he doesn't have the attitude issue either. Will be interesting to see if he actually performs now that he got his payday.
@GoPSULions Yes, if you add punt returns Brown had more yards. Typically top WRs do not return punts. If you use punt return yardage as a important measurement, OK. Apparently then Brown would be your guy. (Why would Brown have an attitude issue? He performed less than Wallace - except for punt return yardage, apparently - and was paid an average of $7.1 Mill for the season. Wallace had more catches, yards, TD and games played and was stuck with the one year tender offer of $2.7 Mill). Would you have an attitude if you outplayed a younger teammate and the other was rewarded with a huge contract while you were forced to play the season for FAR below you market value? Yes, you would. Apparently Wallace was able to correctly gauge his market value, and indicate that the Steelers were not negotiating with him in good faith. ("Take our below market offer, or we'll assign you the tender offer" is NOT negotiating in good faith). Wallace got far more from the Dolphins, and clearly they would not have been the only team to to his lowball offer from the Steelers.

ADA News
Association urges Form 1099 modifications
Washington—The Association urged the Internal Revenue Service "to mitigate the effect" of Form 1099 tax reporting requirements set to begin in 2012. The ADA and an organized dentistry coalition are simultaneously seeking legislative redress.
Association officials in a letter to the IRS expanded to the regulatory front the profession's legislative efforts to block the requirements or reduce their impact on small business dental practices. "The ADA is concerned that these new reporting requirements will unnecessarily increase the cost of providing dental care to our patients and will ultimately increase the cost to the patient," said the letter signed by Dr. Ronald L. Tankersley, ADA president, and Dr. Kathleen T. O'Loughlin, executive director.
Inserted as a revenue measure in the health care reform law, Section 9006 of Public Law 111-152 amends the tax code to require that businesses report to the IRS payments made by any vendor after Dec. 31, 2011, that exceed $600 a year. The tax law change expands existing reporting requirements to include goods and services and corporations that are not tax-exempt. With some exceptions, payments to corporations are currently exempt from the tax reporting requirement.
Most private sector dental practices are small businesses, the Association told the IRS, which invited comment on proposed regulations to implement the new law.
"It is not possible to determine precisely the number of additional Form 1099s that will need to be generated as a result of the amended section 6041, but for each of these private practitioners, it will likely be a considerable burden," the ADA said.
"At a minimum, additional record keeping will be required along with changes to existing practice management software or bookkeeping systems. In addition, accounting and tax preparation fees will undoubtedly increase. Ultimately, these costs will be borne either by the dentist or the patient without any increase in benefit to the patient.
"Because of these concerns, the ADA requests that the IRS do all in its power to mitigate the effect of these reporting requirements."
The IRS is considering exempting transactions that use credit or debit cards. "The ADA suggests that the IRS examine whether the same exemption should be extended to include transactions paid using electronic fund transfers or written checks from a business checking account which, we believe, is essentially the same as using a debit card. In fact, the only transactions that should require a Form 1099 may be cash transactions."
The Association also recommended that the IRS issue a regulation to exempt payments to corporations and urged that the Treasury and IRS commissioner "make appropriate recommendations to Congress" to adjust for inflation the $600 reporting threshold established in the early 1950s.
The U.S. Senate having rejected legislation to repeal the new tax reporting requirements or exempt small businesses with 25 or fewer employees, businesses including dental practices will have to report a wider range of payments starting in 2012. The IRS says it wants to implement the law "in a manner that minimizes burden and avoids duplicate reporting."
The Association will urge the House of Representatives and Senate to revisit the Form 1099 reporting requirements before they take effect. The Association joined an organized dentistry coalition in urging repeal of the requirement Organized Dentistry Coalition.

Florida Georgia Line Teaming Up with Nelly for "Cruise" Remix?
It looks like Florida Georgia Line is teaming up with R&B star Nelly for a remix of "Cruise."
Nelly has a new pop hit on his hands called "Hey Porsche," and the remix featuring Florida Georgia Line and Nelly plays at the end of the "Hey Porsche" video as Nelly and his girl go driving off in the sunset.
A few Florida Georgia Line fans have picked up on it, and the country duo had some fun teasing fans about the collaboration on Twitter Sunday. The country duo is confirmed to appear on Nelly's upcoming album, M.O.
Nelly is no stranger to country music. He scored a pop hit in 2004 with the song "Over and Over," featuring Tim McGraw on the chorus.

" The iPhone 5 features polished looks, a larger screen and faster processor than its predecessors. Whilst being a pleasure to use, it is questionable whether the changes are significant enough to justify the price tag. "
* Prices may differ from that shownMore Offers
A great all round smartphone. I have become so reliant on it and use the vast array of apps available in the app store for a wide range of everyday activities. I've had it for over a year now and there have been no real problems with it, very reliable. Asthetically the device is very pleasing, with a stylish design. Performance is as to be expected with apple devices, smooth and fast. The device is also very user friendly, I have hardly struggled when configuring it. The only concern I have is the battery life. I use the device so much that the battery hardly lasts me a full day and therefore I need to keep a charger with me at all times. Another downside is the lack of flash compatibility when browsing the net. The phone is not cheap (as with all apple products) but it is worth the cost given its capabilities.
Having previously used cheaper options of smartphone, I was expecting to feel like the Iphone was a waste of money. However, the app store is much better than the android version and it makes a big difference which apps you can download. the operating system is easy to use and much more aesthetically pleasing than other options. I find the 100mm be a good size too. The drawbacks are the battery life which does not last long at all and I constantly have to keep my charger on me and some dotted in different places like work and in the car which can be irritating. It is also a lot more expensive than other phones and cost about the same as m laptop, having said that, it is a portable computer of its own and most everyday things can be done through the phone now. The best part of having an apple is facetime, this has made keeping in touch with family whilst living aboard much easier and something of a life changer.
I am the first to admit that Apple products can be overpriced and have always avoided them because I felt you could get the same product at a cheaper price and as I am quite thrifty I've managed to survive 4 different smart phones, none of which being an apple. With that being said, there are definitely some great deals going around and you CAN get an iPhone on a great 24 month contract. With my renewal coming up, I did start to look at iPhones as I was the last of my friends to have one (I wanted to join the iPhone club!). I had to chose between the iPhone 5 & the more cost effective but older 4/4s. I read several reviews which all said that they were very similar but that the iPhone 5 was just that bit better, so I decided to get the iPhone 5. Oh...My...God... I'm a convert, I take back any previous comment about being overpriced for what they are. Yes they are expensive but they are so worth it ! I love the sleek design (the iconic white phone which means everyone knows what you have!), the range of accessories that suddenly become available to you, the camera is out of this world ... genuinely the picture is so clear (too clear sometimes for my liking when trying to look attractive for a selfie!) The phone is so quick, between pressing the button and the app loading takes no time. I love Facetime, I didn't know phone calls could be so amusing! My ooooooonly grumble is when typing, there's no back button so that if you make a mistake you can change it without have to delete and retype. I know that you can use your finger to press to the misspelled word, but that can prove to be difficult at times (either after consuming a few too many, or early in the morning when my eyes are refusing to open fully!)
I purchased this phone on contract last year and it is definitely the best phone I have ever owned. I am completely in awe at Apple's ability to produce such flawless and stunning products. I have used many smart phones over the years and even as recently as last year some of the so called 'fantastic phones' did not impress me. There were some with serious lagging issues when scrolling or interrupted actions when trying to access certain functions. Apple completely blew me away with the iPhone 5. There is no doubt this phone is one of a kind. When I opened the box, the unmistakable design and stylish design was outstanding. Completely modern and definitely a gadget lovers dream. The operating system is flawless and smooth - I have not had any problems with any operating system updates. The iPhone 5 is slightly longer than the iPhone 4 which I previously owned but is much lighter. I couldn't believe the difference in weight. As most gadget lovers do, I use my phone for much more than just phoning and texting and the iPhone certainly encourages many more uses. There is an almost endless supply of apps available for download along with several pre-installed apps such as basic functions like a calculator, compass, weather information to more complex apps such as stocks and shares, news stand and passbook. The sound quality and display are phenomenal - the brightness of the display is easily altered and shows just how clear the display is. The only down side would be the battery life. If you use your phone as much as I do (which is a lot the battery does drain quite quickly. Constant usage for internet browsing and apps for a few hours will very quickly result in the battery needing charged. As long as you do not mind charging your phone quite regularly, this is not a major issue. Overall, an amazing product and one I would recommend over and over again.
I have got my Iphone 5 black 15gb when it came out so on 21st september 2012. I`m very happy with it because it fast it`s looks nice and fells nice when I hold it in my hand. The only thing what I`m not happy with is the coloring, with no case it will come off, and the battery. But I believe in the future Apple will improve on this. Anyway the problem is the charging. Around a year you`ll experience some sort of contact issue when you want to plug in your charger. DON`T PUSH IT THOUGH! Also do not worry about the warranty. Simply take a niddle and carefully clean the dirt out of the iphone and TA-DA... It is working. Life is nice again.. I`m happy with my Iphone again and I will not buy anything else because Android is the worst OS system I`ve ever seen. But I`ll write another review of that as well... :)
I received this gift as a Christmas present this Christmas just gone after some time eyeing it up in the shop debating on whether it was worth the hype or not. I'm so glad I received it is really really good at everything it does which includes organizing me and my day as well as providing me with entertainment on the go. I love the way the camera is on the iPhone 5. It allows you to capture photos in many different dimensions as well as providing new and fun effects. The storage on it as well is in its own category. Although I have noticed other people complaining about its storage I find it has the capability to store as much information you want it to without an annoying pop up box saying there isn't much storage left. The iOS on this phone is also very appeasing as well. I really like the smart way in which it presents the phone as well as the rate at which I can do things. To this date I have not found any problems/bugs/errors that have occurred on this phone and I would even view it better than my trust iPhone 4. On the other hand the price is a big detrimental factor. I would only suggest you buy this is you are in a good financial situation as this can set people back a lot. Although I agree that buying the iPhone 5 will surely last you a very long time and will not leave you disappointed or on the verge of getting rid of it.

I would just like to start my review by saying that I honestly love the iPhone 5! How it looks: It is sleek and thin, it weighs barely anything and is very light to hold in your hand. You can tell the massive difference between the iPhone 4s& the iPhone 5. First of all I felt that my 5's battery lasted a lot longer than my previous 4s. The quality of the camera was noticeable and with the new ios 7 update you could also put on some brilliant effects while taking 'selfies'. I also had a dig around the app store and noticed that I could find a lot of apps to make money from. Talking about apps I realised that they were more fun to play, not because the app had changed, but because of the quality of the screen it was clear and you could see everything! Also when dressing my iPhone in 'clothes' cases, i found that my phone didn't get the appearance of looking more bulky with a case on it still looked as thin as one without! I also noticed that the iPhone 5's front camera was just as impressive as the one at the back which was a pleasant surprise! The phone was impressive and definitely looked the part, I myself have the white one I like how on the back it has 2 panels at the top and bottom that are shiny and the middle section is a matte white. I am on a contract sim only 12 month plan, I get unlimited minutes and texts and 1gb of data, it is only£6.80 after cashback from quidco, my plan is with vodafone, i just got it! My phone was around £300 from this little shop called Fonetastic in Darlington. I really do recommend you get this phone because it is worth it!
Having previously used the iPhone 4 and the Samsung Galaxy S3 I was expecting this to disappoint me when i bought it, however it has not. I find the 10.2cm size to be just about right to get all my normal phone activites done. As well as some personal time such as Netflix or app store games, Which brings me onto the app store. This is much better populated (In my opinion) than the android market which is a major selling point of smart phones now a days. The iOS 6 is a refreshing change from previous operating systems, although the backbone from them still remains. The problems i've found with this phone seem to be pretty much what everyone else finds. the screen is VERY fragile and a case is a must have. And the battery life more often than not doesn't last a full day. Having said that I feel the positives on this phone outweigh the negatives
There are several things I really like about this phone but then other way it just doesn't quite fulfil all that expectation I had. I have had this phone about a month now, coming from the 4s I was looking for some new features, a bit more speed, better camera and overall more reliable unit. I use my phone very much like my personal assistant I do everything on it and it goes everywhere with me. I have an a Mac book pro and iPad so I was never looking at other phones as I love the lay out and set up that apple produces. That being said, the 5, yes it's slimmer, does have what appears a better camera but I don't like the OS system. I know you can get it on the 4 but I uploaded it on my 5 and hated it. It took up too much memory and then seem to drain my battery. Following this charger... I wasn't sure how much hassle the new charger was going to give me, but it's a nightmare I've had to buy all new cables for the Car and ihome and more importantly when I'm out and my phone dies I can't just quickly grab one of someone to borrow. That being said overall quality of this phone is great, bigger screen and lighter feel are definitely a great upgrade, I struggle with the maps on here apple has never really impressed me and even with the upgrades to the 5 it still lacks any kind of clarity. Luckly I love the app waze for any kind of navigation stuff. Finally the last thing specific to the iPhone is its lack of durability, I noticed the case had a lot of small scratches from really no heavy use. I always look after it and keep it in a case so I feel that is phone will look tatty in very little time. I have tried to review on the iPhone specifically as a phone this is a great product but compared to previous iPhones I'm not sure this is model you would rush to upgrade too, let's hope apple come out with something better.
I upgraded to the iPhone 5 not long after its release from its younger cousin, the iPhone 4. The model I have, and will be reviewing, is the Black 16GB version. This model retails at around £350-£400 depending on where you get it from and if you buy it new. I will begin by reviewing the cosmetic and hardware features and then the internal/software. Hardware: The difference in weight of the phone was noticeable straight away. Apple has managed to drastically reduce the weight, whilst improving performace. This, I feel, is one of the highlights of the phone and Apple deserves recognition for this. The phone itself is longer; the screen can hold an additional 'app' logo per page and this improves the quality of watching videos and movies. The camera is of good quality; what you would expect from that model, and the rear facing camera is now located in the centre, rather than to one side, meaning that you get a more centred picture of yourself when making video calls. With the iPhone 5 Apple have decided to move the audio jack to the bottom of the phone. I have found this more of an inconvenience than a good point as it makes storing your phone in your pocket/on a running arm band more difficult when listening to music; two things that I regularly do. The quality of the speakers are good, in line with what you would expect however, Apple could have easily done better and the speakers are nothing to compare with the Apple rivals, such as HTC, who make excellent quality speakers. The same can be said for the headphones, whilst Apple has re-designed the look of them to make them more comfortable, they have not really improved the overall listening experience. The screen has a higher resolution than that of Apple's previous models, but this feature is not particularly overwhelming, or something to boast about. The battery life of the iPhone 5 to me, is very similar (if not worse) to the iPhone 4. Through general usage I can make the battery last a whole day, but if you forget your charger when travelling you will struggle to make it last any longer than that. Another point relevant to the battery is the new charging input. Apple has redesigned the charger to a new, smaller charger. So, if you have an abundance of iPhone 4 audio docks and chargers, you will no longer be able to use them. Software: The speed of the processor is noticeably different from the iPhone 4; There was very little lag during the first 14 months of usage of the phone and it wasn't until I began more frequent usage and the phone was beginning to reach nearly full capacity that I noticed it beginning to lag. In terms of new features, the iPhone 5 is pretty much the same as the 4 software-wise. The key new feature was the integrated panoramic camera that it offered; however, iPhone 4 users wishing to take panoramic pictures can do so with an additional app. The Apple app store is easily the best on the market, but this is not a feature limited to just iPhone 5 users (yet). Overall usage and look of the software is identical to that of the previous models and Apple have done very little to give the phone a real 'new' feeling. Users who have had previous Apple products will likely find the novelty of the 5 wears off very quickly.
I was way behind the times when it came to smart phones. I just didn't see the point. A mobile phone, I thought, was just for making calls or sending texts and since my trusty 5 year old LG did those things, I just wouldn't get the use out of an iPhone. How I was wrong! Since my husband (via the kids!) treated me to an iPhone last Mother's Day, I genuinely haven't looked back and I've become one of those saddos I used to pity who couldn't live without their phone! ~ Price ~ To buy an iPhone without a contract you're looking at over £400, even now that the newer 5s version has been released. My husband bought mine from Vodafone on contract and got a good deal including texts and calls. He got a discount because he works for NHS (worth knowing for any other fellow NHS-ers!) and he pays around £32 a month. ~ Appearance ~ As far as I am aware you can buy the iPhone 5 in white, silver or black, and mine in silver. The phone itself is smaller and more lightweight than I expected, although this is comparing it with my 5 year old LG brick! The front of the phone is predominantly the main screen when you can find your apps, make phone calls etc. You have the "Siri" button (which I will go into later!) at the bottom and the charger port underneath. I bought a flip style case for mine to protect both the casing and the screen. I think you can by official Apple ones but I bought a cheapie one off ebay which, touch wood, seems to be doing it's job so far. The phone has a retina display which makes everything easily visible, and then is an option on settings, to reduce the brightness. I find these handy if using it when it's a bit darker so it doesn't hurt my eyes. ~ Basic phone functions ~ As I said earlier, all I originally wanted from a phone was the ability to send and receive messages, and to make phone calls, and you can do all of this using the touch screen keypad. During phone calls you can also put the other person on speaker phone and use the other apps/internet etc while you are still talking to them. The touch screen is responsive and easy to use and I've not personally found it any harder to type on a touch screen than the old button type keyboards. ~ Camera ~ The phone has an 8-megapixel iSight camera which means absolutely nothing to me! What I can say is that the camera takes good photos easily. I like that you can take a lot of photos in a short amount of time by tapping the camera icon. It's virtually impossible to get a photo of both my kids smiling at the same time but by taking multiple photos while they are still posing, I can pick the best of a bad bunch. The photos are also easy to edit, crop and rotate. The video camera is equally as easy to use and you can easily switch between to the two by sliding the icon across. ~ Battery life~ I know a lot of people complain about the battery life of iPhones but I don't really have an issue with it. If you remember to close the apps in the background it helps to conserve your battery time. Obviously apps such as the sat nav and games cause the battery to be used up more quickly but this is to be expected. The phone came with a charger than can be used in a traditional plug or can also be used in a usb port. I've used both ways and never had a problem. I do actually find that it's quite quick to charge. ~ Internet and emails ~ The iPhone uses Safari for the internet and again, I've found it easy to use. You can open multiple windows, use private browsing and add bookmarks easily. When you get the phone you can also register for an icloud account which gives you an email address. Any emails are easily accessible by the envelope icon. Sending and receiving emails, inserting photos etc are all done within this function and it's very simple to do. It's much handier than having to constantly log in to hotmail to check your emails as you automatically get an alert when you receive an email. ~ Apps ~ There are so many apps that you can download that it's hard to know where to begin! The one's I use the most are ebay, facebook, spotify (music) and my kindle app. I have linked my kindle to the iphone and downloaded the kindle app so when I am out and about I can read my ebooks without having to take my kindle with me. Ebay and facebook make using these websites much easier and I found it so much simpler to list things on ebay using the app. The phone automatically comes with a map app which can be used as a sat nav and gives direction. I love this app as I have no sense of direction so it can help me out when I have got myself lost. I have loads more apps, Topcashback, Quidco and voucher cloud are all good for saving/making a bit of money, there's games such as candy crush and Wordz, I have Instagram and Twitter although don't use these as often yet. I also have a little app called Wunderlist where you can have various lists and tick things off when they're done. I love a good list at the best of times and really found it useful at christmas so I could make sure I hadn't forgotten anything. ~ Protection ~ I have a pin code password to access my iphone to stop unwanted people having a nosey. I also have a password that is needed before downloading any apps. The last thing I want is one of the kids to start downloading £1000s worth of apps! I also have the find my iphone app so if it ever goes missing I can log on to my icloud account on any other device/computer and it will locate it by gps. ~ Siri ~ To access Siri you just hold the little button at the bottom of the phone and ask it to do things. Such as "ring mum" or "open facebook". I hardly ever use this though, as Siri doesn't care for my lovely northern accent and often mishears me and then time I've taken repeating myself in a voice like the queen, I can just do it manually! ~ Conclusion ~ So to sum up, I love my phone. It works well as a mobile phone and I can text and call to my hearts content but it's so much more than that. I use it more than I realise and I really would be lost without it now. What a saddo!
Hi ya'll, I've had an iPhone for the past three years, and during that time I've tried a few Androids (such as the HTC Sense) and HATED them. To me there is nothing like an iPhone, the interface is great, easy and quiet beautiful. The 5 is perfect for me, I love taking pictures, so the 8 megapixel camera was a huge bonus when buying it outright. Not to mention the fact its light and durable (if you buy the right case and don't throw it down concrete stairs - yes I did that and yes it would've cost me a fortune to replace had I not just brought myself some insurance). If you like to listen to a lot of music I'd go for the 32GB, I know it's a big more expense but you'll need it. I have 4 albums worth of songs on my 16GB and it's almost out of space. A girls gotta have her apps. My honest opinion is that the phone is brilliant, I'm an avid Apple fan and I always will be, but if you want your iPhone to last, buy a good case and don't be as stupid as I've been in the past. Buy. Enjoy. But take care of it.
Personally, of all the phones I have had, this is by far the best one I have ever owned. The speed and graphics of the iPhone 5 are simply perfect; it is simple and easy to use and understand; it is quick to turn on and off; it is attractive and fits in the hand comfortably; it has wonderful sound quality and a very helpful Siri included in the software! It also has a very useful function to set up your own Wi-Fi which others can connect to if they have the correct password. Apart from all of this, the iPhone 5 is a great phone that you can really personalize and make your own; you can change all backgrounds, log in to all your accounts, create your own password or pass code and obviously choose what apps you want. In fact, the only negative point that I can find is that the battery power is not very long-lasting. Overall, however, the iPhone 5 really is the best phone that I have ever used.
This is a top-quality phone, but there are better phones out there. Put simply, that will be the main thrust of this review. I'll start with the positives. Firstly, the build-quality is excellent. It's a premium phone and it feels it - metallic, smooth, and surprisingly light. Only the HTC One comes close to the iPhone in terms of the quality of the build. The screen's slightly bigger than on previous versions, but the phone itself is lighter. Secondly, the ios7 update is welcome, and brings some pretty useful features, most notably the notification centre. The screen quality is crystal-clear, pristine, and playing movies/streaming TV looks beautiful. Battery life is also very good. But, though it is a quality phone, I no longer feel Apple are ruling the roost when it comes to smartphones. There are so much more things you can do with an Android phone - better customisation, for one. With the iPhone you're basically stuck with a screen with all your icons/apps lined up. Also there's no expandable memory, which is a real negative for me as it means I can't put all my music on here. Also the price - it's simply not reasonable anymore to expect somebody to pay this much for an iPhone. Basically, you're paying for the name 'iPhone' and the supposed prestige that comes with it. I'd much rather pay a lot less for a better phone - which, nowadays, is easily possible. So there you go. That's my two-penneth worth.
I got my iPhone 5 on Contract when it came out. I opted for the 64GB version as I have a very large music collection and I know that my use of the phone would easily, and quickly, fill it to capacity. This review is based on my own personal experiences of the device, and it must be remembered that not all devices will be this good/bad. PROS * The device is a great size. It fits nicely in the hand, despite the larger size compared to the 4S, and it is very easy to use with all fingers. Using my thumb on the device as I hold it in my hand is very easy. I don't have any issues reaching any part of the screen, and I have quite small hands. It fits nicely in my pockets on all trousers, jeans and cargo trousers. I've also owned a Galaxy S4 and I found it to be slightly too large. I instantly went back to my iPhone 5. * The speed of this phone compared to the previous model is very good. I have very rarely noticed any lag when using it and find it more than able to handle my day to day tasks. I use my phone for everything - phone calls, texts, emails, gaming, video, music, podcasts, etc,. - and I have done so for over 12 months now without any issue with regards to speed. * The screen resolution is very, very good. Watching videos on the iPhone 5 is a delight. The screen is small enough to allow the phone to be very portable, yet large enough to be able to enjoy video on it while on a train journey or just about anywhere. Videos are crisp, clear, and detailed. I've never noticed any lag. * Apps are plentiful in the Apple Store. If you can think of an app idea, it probably already exists. This is really where I feel Apple wins in the market. Android phones are very good, but they lack in the Apps department compared to Apple, although they are catching up. I mostly use my iPhone 5 for music and podcasting apps, and video apps such as Youtube, but I also use many other apps that help me out day to day. For example, GPS apps are easy to use on the iPhone 5 due to the fact you can use it anywhere. When I owned an iPod Touch I was limited to Wifi use, but with the phone I have no issues at all. * I chose the black iPhone 5 as I wanted the phone to almost disappear when I was watching videos. I noticed that the white phone had very visible bars (on the phone) at the side of videos. This is the only reason I chose the black, but I would recommend it over the white for that reason. However, if the white one is more your colour then it won't be much of an issue. * The phone is extremely easy to set up and customize. It practically comes out the box ready to go, something Apple are eager to remind people about when they bring out a new one. For beginners, this phone will be a very easy introduction to the world of smartphones. For experienced users it may be a little tame compared to Android devices, although with the release of iOS7 it has made the iPhone 5 even more customizable. * Battery life is actually quite good on the iPhone 5, although smartphones in general are always found to be lacking in this department. Common sense is a good idea with regards to battery life. Obviously, if you use the phone every 2 minutes and have the screen lit up most of the day then your battery is going to drain quicker. However, if like me you prefer to use it mostly for music/podcasts, checking on emails and general internet browsing/phone calls and texts, the battery should easily last you the day. In the future smartphone batteries will probably last at least a week, but for now a day is probably about the average. * Navigating around the phone is very easy. Each page holds 20 Apps, but folders can be created and they can hold almost unlimited apps. iOS7 has introduced a new search feature (accessible by swiping down on any page) that makes finding apps/emails etc,. very easy. * iOS7 now allows access to notifications from all kinds of areas. On the lock screen a simple swipe of any notification will now take you straight to that app. For example, if you receive a text or email, a quick swipe of that notification will open up the message/email app. This saves so many finger presses and makes the device even easier to use. CONS To be honest, there aren't many cons with the iPhone 5 if it's a device you are used to using. If you have used an iPod Touch/iPad, then the iPhone 5 will be almost automatically your phone of choice (if you want to save a few quid on the new 5S). This part of my review is mainly about faults with the device after about 12 months of use. These faults are very well known to Apple, and a quick google of each issue will find multiple search results about people complaining about them. * After 12 months I noticed that my phone suddenly switches off when there is still between 20 and 50% left. This requires waiting about 5 minutes before being able to restart the device, which results in the battery showing more battery life! This issue is a huge problem, especially when I'm beginning to near about 30%. Knowing my phone could die at any time and the percentage may not be accurate is really annoying. * When plugged in to charge the screen becomes quite unresponsive and requires a lot more work to get things done. This is incredibly annoying and is a bug I've only noticed in the last few weeks. Again, this issue started after about 12 months. When not charging the screen always works fine. * The speaker produces fair sound quality, and I use it daily for podcasts and music, but it is a little tinny and very trebly. It's clear enough, but I wouldn't recommend using it if you wanted brilliant sound. Fortunately, these days bluetooth speakers are relatively cheap and in huge supply. This is a brilliant way to use your phone wirelessly and with great sound. Alternatively, like me, you could purchase the Apple TV box and stream things through that to your television/hi fi. OVERALL As a device, even with the issues after 12 months, the iPhone 5 is a brilliant phone. With the recent release of the iPhone 5S and 5C, prices of the iPhone 5 have gone down and a fairly good deal can now be sought out if you don't mind having an out of date device.

What about the Houston shows?
The stage was set up in the middle of a meadow!
That was kinda special, wasn't it?
On how many concerts Elvis used special made stage?
I know only about two concerts - Aloha (very very nice! ) and Pontiac Silverdome. But is it all?
(Blackmore - Gillan - Glover - Lord - Paice)
Sweet child in time
you?ll see the line
line that?s drawn between
good and bad
see the blind man
shooting at the world
bullets flying taking toll
If you?ve been a bad
oh Lord I bet you have
and you?ve not been hit
by flying led
you?d better close your eyes
you?d better bow your head and
wait for the ricochet
- Lyrics of most beautiful song in rock music ever!!!
What about the Houston shows?
The stage was set up in the middle of a meadow!
That was kinda special, wasn't it?
I don't know if this one counts: the square stage during the live performance in the '68 Comeback Special.
"A year from now, you'll wish you had started today"
Follow TCB-World on Twitter for website updates and Elvisnews: http://twitter.com/tcbworldcom
I would say it does count, Albert, because you know it was an concert!.
And a concert is a concert, no matter what it is right?..
And on the Pontiac Silverdome stage Elvis didn't like it! ..(what i heard anyway!).

Pontiac Silverdome stage Elvis didn't like it!
He was mad as hell,at the way the stage was set up,and the band were on another level
SAM...it"s been a privilege to be called your best mate.17.03.55 - 24.01.08
I have a picture of the Pontiac stage before the show with the lights up. As soon as I find it I'll post for your information
I think houston was special. He came out by jeep. Also Elvis could not bring everyone so he brought Charlie, Jerry, Ronnie, John, James, and back-up singers and that was it. So basically it was just big jam session almost infront of 40,000 people at the time.
Dig this photo..
Wow, nice photo Howard! As far as the Pontiac concert goes, I can't blame Elvis for being "mad as hell" that his band (who he associated with greatly), were on a different level them him. Were there any reasons why that happened, who's idea was that anyway?

A North Carolina State fair worker injured Monday morning remains in critical condition at WakeMed Hospital.
The worker has been identified as Anesto Newell.
Police said Newell was injured while dismantling a ride called "Vortex." The State Fair had two rides called "Vortex" and fair officials said the one involved in Monday's incident was not the same one involved in last week's incident that injured five people.
WNCN talked to Newell's family at the hospital on Tuesday.
"There was a wire snap and then a big boom," recalled Tywan Newell, Anesto's brother. He and his wife were also taking down rides at the fair when the accident happened.
The ride crushed Anesto's lower body. They say his back was broken in three places, his pelvis shattered, he broke his left leg, his ankle, and suffered several other injuries.
"I didn't want to see my brother die," said Tywan. "At the same time my brother is all mangled up, I'm thinking, what am I going to tell momma"
Anesto and Tywan's mother was already in the hospital for a separate heart issue.
"I'm angry, I'm real angry," said Jean Quartey, their mother. She says she wants to know how such a major accident could happen. "I'm going to get some accountability," she said.
Fair officials still don't know how the accident happened. Tywan says since the case is still under investigation, the ride should have never been taken off of the property until they figured out what went wrong.
As of Tuesday night, Anesto was still in critical condition in the ICU.
Born in California but growing up in South Carolina, Jonathan Rodriguez joined WNCN in June 2013 as a digital journalist. More>>
