Wearing a grey Delaney jacket from Reiss, fitted blue trousers and black suede ankle boots, Kate, 31, used a frog hand-puppet as she and the children sang "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" and "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" at the Shooting Star Children's Hospice in Hampton, on the western outskirts of London.
But not everyone was charmed by the new mom. When Demi-Leigh Armstrong, 5, complained that a friend didn't have a musical instrument, Kate offered up a rattle, which the little girl turned down with a firm, "No."
But she won the little girl over in the end. Demi-Leigh, who is recovering from a kidney transplant operation, gave Kate a posy of roses, and as she was leaving, the child grabbed Kate's leg and the pair exchanged a thumbs up.
Kate spent much of her time at the hospice – which supports children with life-threatening or life-shortening illnesses – asking parents about their kids and their experience at Shooting Star, which has 10 beds as well as daycare facilities.
She also revealed that her 4-month-old son, Prince George, has begun doing messy play, which helps develop hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. Mom Louise Wilks told reporters, "She said she has just introduced George to messy play and what fun it was."
And her visit was clearly appreciated. "She was really lovely, very sincere, her beauty shone from within," Britt Armstrong-Gash said. "She asked about how we use the facilities here and what life is like. I told her how we get very little support from outside and how important Shooting Star is to us."
Kate is planning to set up a new initiative to encourage more people to volunteer in hospices. "The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry is currently developing a pilot for a volunteering program to support families of children with life-limiting conditions," a Kensington Palace spokesman told reporters. "A key component of today's visit is for the Duchess to meet a group of Shooting Stars volunteers, to better understand how they support the hospice and its families."

The original list of All-Sierra League players that was released last week did not include the Division III first team, which was done separately of the Division I-A and was not released until Monday.
Both of Incline's state championship teams cleaned up in the first-team voting, with two boys and two girls receiving the highest honors. The second team and honorable mention combined the players from the Sierra League's two divisions.
The awards were voted on by the league's coaches.
In girls All-League voting, Incline senior Sophie Breider was named MVP of the league, while teammate Haley Derr was offensive MVP and North Tahoe's Angela Wood was defensive MVP.
Incline's Vanessa Andrade and Elise Nelson were voted to the first team at forward, while teammates Kayla Goldberg made the first team as a midfielder, Hannah Johnson and Misha Gehring on defense, Sarah Wright as a goalkeeper, and Kerrie Tonking as a utility player. Tom Canino was voted Coach of the Year.
For the boys, Incline's Salvador Vargas was named midfield MVP, Kyle Reeves was offensive MVP and North Tahoe's Riley McCarthy was defensive MVP.
The Highlanders' Drew Bessette made the first team as a forward, Erick Rodriguez as a midfielder, and Oscar Gudino and Hugo Garcia as defenders. Canino, who coaches both the boys and girls, was Coach of the Year.

After three straight years of historically low premiums and greatly expanded coverage offerings, the struggle among aviation insurance companies to gain or hold market share has begun taking its toll. Last year the industry experienced one of its worst for aviation claims since 2001, and 2010 continues the trend.

Every year the federal government auctions off to the public a handful of its used business-class jets, turbine helicopters and turboprops at prices that, at first glance, seem ridiculously low. Over the last decade, buyers walked away with deals that have included $30,000 for a Falcon 20, $101,000 for a Sabreliner 75A, $387,000 for a Turbo Commander 690A and $399,000 for a Gulfstream II.
June 1, 2010
As the used aircraft market's recovery continues, global issues are surfacing that could temper buyers' enthusiasm. Remember a couple of years ago, when we heard so much about the fast-rising BRIC countries-Brazil, Russia, India and China? Today the focus has shifted to the PIIGS-Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece and Spain, all of which have fairly weak economies and high debt.
June 1, 2010
When searching for a specific aircraft tail number, it's easy to conclude that all the good ones are taken. The folks who operate the FAA registry in Oklahoma City, however, think they've found a way to make many of these "unavailable" registration numbers magically accessible to the rest of us.
April 1, 2010
As winter loosens its grip and spring arrives, a similar thawing process is taking place in the heretofore frozen tundra that the used-aircraft market had become. Trading has increased because sellers have accepted the new price territory that has been established-or is being established, depending on what model we're discussing.

An oft-cited benefit of business jets is that they provide greater security than the airlines. This same benefit can reduce your taxes, too.

The business jet finance field is unique because business jets are unique. For one thing, they move around-fast. A Gulfstream G550 that's in Zurich this morning could be in Tehran tonight.

After used aircraft inventory reached an all-time high last July, the market sustained a month-over-month decrease in supply, falling 8 percent below its peak of 3,100-plus.
December 1, 2009
If you own an aircraft and lease it out, can you be liable for damages caused when the lessee is operating it? The answer reminds me of a joke my securities law professor, Louis Loss, used to tell about a client wanting to hire a one-handed lawyer so the lawyer couldn't say: "Well, on the one hand...but on the other hand."
December 1, 2009
WHEN 2009 BEGAN, the preowned market was like a punch-drunk boxer trying to regain his footing. Down but not out throughout the year, the industry struggled to build strength and stability after absorbing an uppercut delivered by an economic near-catastrophe and then a barrage of power-of-the-pen jabs thrown by often-sensationalistic journalists.

5 Things All Games Could Learn from 'Saints Row IV'
The Saints Row series is the Dragon Ball Z of open world gaming. They keep charging up and charging up, and just when you think it can't get any more ridiculous, somebody turns albino and blows up a planet. The first Saints Row game started off as a cheap Grand Theft Auto clone of no special note, the second became a slight parody of the genre, the third was a non-stop onslaught on punchlines about gaming in general, and now the fourth has launched off into space to explore brave new frontiers of stupidity. And as aggressively idiotic as every moment of the last few games have been, they have also been, without a doubt, the most entertainment for the dollar you can get. So maybe there's something other games can learn from the Saints Row series. Lessons like ...
#5. Maybe Story Isn't All That Important After All
Oh God, and that's coming from me? Practically all I do is harp on the lack of atmosphere and quality storytelling in modern games, as though the entire "fun" aspect is tangential to the serious business of video games. If I seem to rant too much about the lack of story in games, it's only because I concede that games pretty much nailed the entertainment bit, and I think it's time for them to expand. So, yes, story is important, both to me personally, and to the overall growth of the entire medium. But sometimes, just sometimes: Fuck it.
If you follow the Saints Row series to find out where the story goes next, even the game itself kind of wants you to take a flying fuck at the moon. It's almost tradition that each new iteration of the Saints Row series abandons all that came before it. You can see it in the sequel numbering system alone. And Saints Row IV is no different: Within the first half-hour, you become President of the United States, get thrown into the attack scene from Independence Day, and then wake up in The Matrix. Those kinds of shenanigans aren't winning any points in the story category. As far as plot goes, it's wildly uncreative, flagrantly stolen, and almost total gibberish.
But none of it matters, because the story is really only a thinly veiled excuse to introduce new gameplay mechanics. The alien stuff seems a bit out of left field, but it also means strange new vehicles, bizarre weapons, and epic set-pieces in outer space. The Matrix stuff is, to put it politely, two miles past the offramp to retarded - but so what? Because now you get Neo-style superpowers, can jump between wildly different "simulations," and have the ability materialize objects right where you stand. No more phoning in for vehicle delivery and waiting for the AI to crash your shiny new jet into a building trying to reach you. This is the Matrix, remember? It's all just data, so why not have it beam in right where you're standing?
Don't get me wrong. I love it when games go for hyper-realism: I loved S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Metro 2033, and Fallout for their grueling mercilessness. When I found the thirst mechanics in New Vegas lacking, for example, I went out and downloaded mods to make the repercussions more severe. I don't know why I found that satisfying -- in what chapter of the Fun Manual is "realistically die from thirst" recommended? But Saints Row IV aims for the exact opposite type of satisfaction -- it targets the part of your brain that releases endorphins whenever a jet fighter shaped like a Screaming Eagle teleports in front of you, just so you can pick it up with your mind and whip it into a gas station.
I call it "The Explosion Lobe."
#4. Give More to the Players
I have no doubt there will be hundreds of dollars of entirely meaningless DLC available for SRIV within the next few weeks. The last game stopped just shy of selling you new color patterns for your dildo bat. THQ has not exactly been the model of restraint as far as micro-transactions go. However, it cannot be said that they're holding out on the players for extra cash. Another side effect of SRIV taking place in the Special Needs section of the Matrix is the ability to re-skin whatever you want. The first time you step foot in the weapon shop, you're given the opportunity to customize your gun. Not by slightly altering the shade and texture of the grip, like most shooters offer. No, you can choose to have Deckard's pistol from Blade Runner; you can turn your shotgun into an old-timey blunderbuss and your assault rifle into a Tommy Gun. None of this is real, remember, so why not let the player do whatever the hell they want?
I guarantee you, if this were any other game, the player's first free options for customization would be "black or silver metal," and maybe "camo grip" if the developers were feeling generous. Saints Row IV gives you Mal's pistol from Firefly for nothing. Call of Duty charges you five bucks to change the type of leather your holster is made out of. Street Fighter IV charges you four bucks for Cammy's new thong pack -- there aren't many modern games left that give you decent extras right off the bat. Wire-frame tank from that old Atari game? That's probably a dollar. Turning your crew into Ninjas? Got to be a dollar, at least.
Nope: Free.
It's a lesson more game companies can take to heart: You can charge whatever you want for all that extra crap, but don't forget to throw a little of it our way as a reward for, y'know, buying the whole friggin' game in the first place. I'm sure Saints Row IV will sell you all manner of ridiculous, unnecessary customization and strange extras in the next few months. But the gun that turns everything to dubstep and the tentacle-rape bat, at least, are free of charge.
#3. Go Ahead and Steal
Great writers will reword phrases, rework devices and occasionally lift whole arcs from other, classic works. Brilliant directors will frame shots and occasionally recreate entire scenes from their favorite movies. We should not hold video games to a higher standard than other media. Sometimes, it's OK to steal:
Saints Row started life as the Admiral Crisp to Grand Theft Auto's Captain Crunch. They've always been down with some petty larceny, and that legacy is preserved in SRIV. Some of it is done under the guise of parody -- there are large bits lifted from (read: directly mocking) Mass Effect and the Bioware games, there are a few text adventures in the style of Zork, and even a brief homage to Tank Wars. But that's parody, not outright theft. For the shameless stealing, Saints Row IV looked to games like Crackdown and Prototype. It's no longer about jacking cars and pulling drive-bys. This is a superhero game.
In a way, that ruins the whole experience. I can see you being heartbroken, if you were really attached to the ground-level crime-sim of the last few games. If that's the case, the new changes are almost vindictive: Vehicles are entirely pointless in SRIV. They're still there -- all your favorites, the sports cars and tanks and Akira-style motorcycles -- but you can sprint faster than any of them within the first 20 minutes of the game. You can fly as fast as a fighter jet within the first hour. That might be heartbreaking news to you, if you're expecting another GTA clone with slightly more liberal use of dildos. But Saints Row does try to make up for it by letting the player sprint up the sides of buildings and fire freeze blasts.
Ultimately, your system of value is your own, so I'll just say this: If that doesn't sound like a fair trade to you, then you might need to phone the Care Bears, because somebody has stolen your child-like sense of glee.

One Kings Lane Confirms 15% Staff Cut After Big Funding Round
Home décor site One Kings Lane confirmed it cut 15% of its workforce less than six months after raising a massive round of venture capital funding.
The company let go of 79 employees, affecting all job functions and all three of its offices, in San Francisco, New York and Los Angeles, a spokeswoman for One Kings Lane said in an interview. It will also shut down Hunters Alley, the marketplace for used goods it launched last year.
Technology blog Recode earlier reported news of the job cuts.
The downsizing marks an unexpected stumble for one of the hottest e-commerce startups. Co-founded by Susan Feldman and Alison Pincus in 2009, the company has raised $225 million in funding, including a round of $112 million in January that more than doubled its valuation to $912 million. Its investors include Mousse Partners, Scripps Networks, Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and Tiger Global Management.
The staff reductions were the result of management's decision to focus on profitability rather than revenue growth, said a person familiar with the company's thinking.
Doug Mack, One King Lane's former chief executive officer, left the company to run Fanatics, another e-commerce startup, earlier this year. Three other executives, including marketing chief Greg Fant, left at the same time.
Dinesh Lathi became the company's permanent CEO in April.
Other online retail marketplaces have shown signs of stress in recent months. Fab, a New York-based site for home décor, has shed staff over the past year as it has struggled and attempted to realign its business model. Zulily, which held an initial public offering last year, in May reported a first-quarter net loss of double the previous year, as an order backlog pushed up its expenses and lengthened shipping times.

City?Council should work with Alley Cat Allies
March 28, 2013
I am a member of Alley Cat Allies and Metro Ferals. I have been a caretaker for a small feral cat colony in Charles Town for some years now....
The ONLY time that "Alley Cat Allies" would ever be telling the truth during their sorry and pathetic lives is if they renamed their organization to "Alley Cat ALL LIES". Google for (include quotes): "The TNR Con-Game" to learn why. Proof is included.

The ONLY vets and groups that condone the COMPLETELY INHUMANE practice of TNR are those that financially benefit from the hundreds of $thousands that PetSmart charities give as "seed money" cash-grants and pleas for donations by exploiting suffering animals. The more suffering cat-mouths they can all keep alive the more money they make. This is ONLY about the money made by letting more cats and animals suffer to death. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HUMANE NOR ECOLOGICALLY CORRECT ABOUT TNR. All others with the least bit of credible education and morality speak out strongly AGAINST TNR. Some of you might educate yourselves as well about this morally reprehensible TNR "business" by Googling for these search-strings (including quotes): "The TNR Con-Game" / "Be cautious about using any cats taken from outdoors for adoption" / "Licensing and laws do nothing to curb the problem." / and "Here's another fun aspect of TNR that TNR LIARS neve

Among the toughest challenges in education is keeping at-risk youngsters from dropping out of school. That does not mean institutions specializing in the task should not be required to meet some state requirements, however.
More than 18,000 Ohio children attend special "dropout recovery" charter schools, which are private institutions receiving government funding. Perhaps in recognition of the difficulty of coaching such youngsters through to graduation, state officials exempted such schools from some rules governing other institutions, both public and private. Among the exemptions is one that saves the dropout-recovery schools from being closed down if they do not meet certain criteria for academic achievement.
Gov. John Kasich has proposed removing that exemption. He believes dropout-recovery schools should be held to performance standards, too.
Without state funding, most of the state's 74 dropout-recovery schools would be forced out of business. In addition to some federal funding, the state gives them $5,653 a year for each pupil.
Proponents of the schools insist they ought to be given some breaks on performance standards, simply because of what they do. They are correct about that.
As public educators know, students thinking of dropping out of school are among the most difficult children to handle. Many are failing already. Some - and, it is important to note, their parents - just don't care. Convincing them diplomas are important, then getting them back into an academic groove, can be exceedingly challenging.
Still, simply handing over checks for taxpayers' money to schools that claim to be addressing the headache is not wise.
Indeed, allowances need to be made for the type of students in classes at dropout-recovery schools. But the governor is right that some standards should be devised and enforced. Legislators, after careful examination of the situation, should enact such rules.

Billowing flames and smoke poured from the diesel-powered articulated bus, near the 85th Street exit, just after it broke out at about 7 a.m.
Sound Transit later said Friday's frigid temperatures and a frozen brake line could be to blame for the blaze.
Officials said 24 passengers were aboard the bus when the fire broke out, including one passenger in a wheelchair.
Fire Department spokesman Kyle Moore says the driver realized something was wrong underneath the bus and pulled over onto the shoulder. He checked the exterior of the bus, then called for help after spotting flames, opened both bus doors and got everyone off, including the passenger in the wheelchair.
"It was scary because it takes some time to unhook those straps, but later I realized she was already free, so people carried her out ... everybody's running away," said the driver, who asked not to be identified.
The driver said he pulled over after several motorists passing by him pointed at the bus to let him know something was wrong. He checked the bus and spotted a small fire near the back.
"At first I thought it was small, and it can be handled," he said. "But then I called in, and it was already spreading up, so I opened both doors and told people, 'We have to run.'"
The driver and some passengers told KOMO News that they heard a pop or explosion.
"I said, 'We have to - we have to run,' because after the first explosion there was fire, so I told them, 'We must run,'" recounted the driver.
"Everyone starts looking around at each other, like, 'Whats happening?'" said passenger Emalasa Franulovich. "Then we hear a second 'pop,' and everyone starts panicking and yelling, 'Get off the bus.'"
"So we're walking down the express lanes watching the bus on fire. ... I'm happy that I'm alive - it wasn't very fun," she said.
The driver said that the evacuation of the bus went very smoothly once it started.
"They were actually very organized, so I told them ... 'Get against the barrier,' and they did," he says.
Some passengers called the bus driver a "hero" for his calm but effective actions in getting the bus evacuated safely.
Sound transit spokeswoman Kimberly Reason says the cause of the fire is under investigation but it could have been caused by frozen brakes that overheated.
The blaze caused major disruptions during the morning rush hour. Aerial footage showed a huge backup extending for miles to the north.
All express lanes were closed initially, as well as two northbound lanes as firefighters battle the flames. The north 85th Street overpass also was closed so that fire trucks can reach the bus from above.
Firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze by about 7:30 a.m., but their efforts were hampered at one point by a shortage of water.
By 7:50 a.m., one lane of the express lanes was reopened and a second was opened at about 9:30 a.m., but traffic was delayed through most of the morning.

The Pirates game plan was about as hard to spot as Taylor Strohecker. And the first-half lead they built behind her was almost as tall.
The Ignacio High School girls basketball team spent two quarters struggling to figure out how to keep the ball out of the hands of the 6-2 Strohecker, but she wasted no time figuring out how to keep the ball going into the hoop.
Lob. Catch. Score. Repeat.
�It was all mental,� Strohecker said. �Know what I had to do.
�And I did it.�
Strohecker scored more than half of the Pirates� points, including 15 of her 22 total in the first half, to push Pagosa to a lead that also would prove too tall for the Bobcats to overcome: The Pirates beat the Bobcats 42-29 on Tuesday night at IHS.
�The big girl was just huge,� Ignacio�s Michelle Simmons said.
Strohecker said the speed of Tuesday�s game in the packed-house IHS gymnasium worked to the Pirates� advantage.
Ignacio never led as Pagosa built a lead of as much as 12 in the first half before the 25-15 score at the intermission, despite the fact that three Pirates made up all but two points of their scoring.
Behind Strohecker, Payton Shahan scored 10 points, and Emily Bryant scored eight.
Madison Lewis scored the other two.
Scoring for the Bobcats was more widespread, with Sky Cotton leading the team with nine.
After missing the Bobcats� win against Ridgway on Saturday, Mariah Vigil returned to the lineup to add six points, while Simmons and Pam Cotton, who returned Tuesday from a knee injury, scored four.
But spread around or not, Ignacio points weren�t efficient, and most of them weren�t too pretty.
The offense often looked discombobulated and unable to find a rhythm.
�Our chemistry wasn�t there (Tuesday night),� IHS head coach Justa Whitt said. �Definitely didn�t have our chemistry right.�
Simmons said the return of Vigil and Pam Cotton to the lineup, while welcome, might take some time to get used to as the Bobcats try to integrate them back into the offense.
Besides, she said, the necessary concentration just wasn�t present Tuesday.
�We were running plays, and nobody even knew what we were running,� Simmons said.
After falling behind against Strohecker�s mismatch in the first half, the defensive concentration did pick up, though, Whitt said, and that provided some hope for the Bobcats.
Gabs Garcia, Valerie Armstrong and Vigil made adjustments in the final two quarters to slow Strohecker down beneath the basket.
�They stopped lobbing in there, so that was good,� Whitt said.
But the damage was done, and the Bobcats (5-6) would get no closer than 29-23 in the third quarter.
�It was a big disappointment,� Simmons said after getting beat by the bigger Class 3A school. �I don�t feel like we stepped up like we should�ve.�

Julia Louis-Dreyfus Reveals Her Secret to Body Confidence at 52
Her secret?
"Getting older," the actress tells Health magazine for its July/August cover story, now on newsstands. "It's like, 'Yeah, this is who I am, f––– off.' As opposed to, 'This is who I am, I'm sorry.' You know, there's something about getting older and owning who you are that is a good thing."
Her confidence translates to another everyday issue women deal with: cellulite. The star's tip? "I try to push the worry down," she says, "and pull the Spanx up!"
Louis-Dreyfus's confident, easy-going attitude extends elsewhere in her life, including balancing work and her family (she and Brad Hall have been married for 26 years and have two sons together).
"Of course you can't have it all," says Louis-Dreyfus. "That's absurd! It doesn't mean you shouldn't pursue what you desire. It's not possible to do and have everything all the time. So you have to make choices … if you realize that, then I think you can free yourself up to prioritize."

Delhi broke all previous polling records on Wednesday with a voter turnout of more than 67%, shattering its image of a city of apathetic and indifferent voters with it.
The highest voter turnout witnessed in an election for the Delhi Assembly till Wednesday, was 61.75% in 1993. With 67% turnout till 9pm and many still queued to cast their vote, Wednesday's record could well go on to break the record of highest turnout for any election in Delhi ever. That record is at present held by the turnout of 69.49% in 1967 for Lok Sabha polls.
On Wednesday, Delhi voted in record numbers not only from the not-so-urbane areas that are traditionally known for strong voter turnouts but also from areas such as Greater Kailash and Defence Colony, which saw turnout of nearly 70%.
The enthusiasm shown by Delhiites on Wednesday was in the making for the last one year. Incidents, such as the December 16 gang rape last year, had spurred to people to have their say and more aware of their rights. Not surprisingly, most voters on Wednesday said that the biggest issues on their mind were inflation and the safety of women.
The Delhi Electoral Office also played a big role in motivating voters from sections of the society. Its massive campaign, which involved rock concerts, cycle rallies, exhibitions and other voter outreach programmes began in 2012.
"I want to show Delhi's people sincere gratitude for an incident free election and a high turnout that has broken all previous records," said Delhi's Chief Electoral Officer Vijay Dev. "The youth of Delhi has broken all old stereotypes. I hope the final figure touches 70%," he said.
Dev said that voter awareness campaign, with an eye on the general election slated next year, will continue with particularly the youth in mind.
If exit polls are any indication to go by, chief minister Sheila Dikshit is going to lose the Capital after 15 years. The surveys are divided over the performance of the Bharatiya Janata Party. While two organisations have predicted that the BJP will easily form its government in the 70-member house, three other surveys predict it emerging as the single largest party but falling short of the simple majority.
The ORG-India Today exit poll claim the BJP is likely to form the government with 41 seats while the ABP -Nielsen gives it 37 seats. The other three surveys - News 24 - Chanakya , Times Now-C Voter and C Fore-News Nation - have given the saffron party 29 to 34 seats. The exit polls claim they Congress will be the second largest party with 10-21 seats while political greenhorn Aam Aadmi Party may get 6-31 seats.
Delhi has witnessed a record voter turnout this time with some assembly segments reported close to 75% voting. Political analysts said a high voter turnout generally reflects that the electorate have voted against the incumbent government. That's the reason why the Congress' seat share is likely to go down drastically and its seats may get distributed between its main political rival BJP and debutant AAP.
MALFUNCTIONING EVMs
There were some reports of malfunctioning of electronic voting machines (EVM) in some parts of the city but they were rectified, election officials said.
The EVM at polling booth in Aurangazeb Lane, where Rahul cast his vote, malfunctioned when polling began.
In Jungpura, Badli and Krishna Nagar constituencies, some voters complained that their names had been struck from the electoral rolls and they could not vote.
Elaborate security arrangements were made in the capital with deployment of 32,801 personnel of Delhi Police and 10,700 central paramilitary force personnel to ensure peaceful elections.
The voting began at 8am at 11,753 polling booths out of which 630 have been identified as critical and hyper critical.
The Election Commission has appealed to people not to carry mobile phones while going to cast their votes.
READ: Delhi, it's time to rise and shine at polling booths
READ: All you wanted to know about voting
Number game A total of 1.19 crore voters are eligible to exercise their franchise, out of which 66.11 lakh are men and 53.20 lakh are women. The number of first time voters is 4.05 lakh.
810 candidates are in the fray in the three-cornered contest between Congress, BJP and AAP.
While BJP has fielded candidates in 66 constituencies Congress and AAP are contesting from all 70 seats. BSP, which was the third largest party in last assembly election, has fielded candidates in 69 seats, NCP in nine and Samajwadi Party in 27 seats.
A total of 224 independents are also in the fray.
The Delhi vote concludes the state polls this year. The state elections are setting the tone and serving as a virtual semi-final for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
While the Congress is looking to extend its winning streak with chief minister Dikshit eyeing a fourth consecutive term, the BJP is keen to end its 15-year power drought in the national capital.
It is, however, Kejriwal's debuting AAP that seems to have stirred the pot. It is expected to dent the vote bank of its political rivals who are veterans in the field.
The AAP's extensive and focussed grassroots campaign has helped the party to make its presence felt and turn it into a real triangular contest. With both Dikshit and Kejriwal having filed their nomination from New Delhi, the stage is set for a riveting contest in that constituency.
The BJP has put up its former Delhi unit chief Gupta for the seat to make the contest triangular.
The polls in Delhi are keenly watched as it is the centre of the country's political power and has, many times in the past, served as a pointer to the Lok Sabha polls.
The BJP threw in all its might with the party's prime ministerial candidate and lead campaigner Narendra Modi holding five rallies in the metropolis.
Party sources said that 230 public meetings were held by its leaders in the past 10 days.
With the assembly polls to be followed by the Lok Sabha elections about six months later and a few of its senior leaders apparently interested in contesting from Delhi in the general elections, the BJP has tried not to leave anything to chance.
A victory in Delhi is crucial for the Congress to balance against its probable loss to the BJP in some other states which have gone to the polls in this round of assembly elections.
With a number of surveys having predicted BJP victories in Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh and a tight race in Chhattisgarh, the Congress is pinning a lot of hopes on winning Delhi.
The elections are crucial for the AAP for its ambitions to expand its political base to other parts of the country.
A good showing in Delhi will enhance its electoral appeal while a poor showing could dampen the spirits of its growing rank of supporters, particularly the young, the working class and sections of the middle class.
The counting of the ballots cast in Delhi, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh will take place December 8 and in Mizoram December 9.

The 7 Most Gloriously Stupid Crimes Ever Attempted
The world is fascinated by crime and the people who commit it. Way too much of our fiction, television, and cinema is about crime and how it's waged or fought, to the point that basically every person alive is an expert on police work, forensics, and criminal enterprise. In fact, deep down, every single one of us is pretty confident that we could get away with a crime if we had to.
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
This counts, although technically the real criminal was whoever gave the baby candy in the first place.
Crime seems so easy! A plan and a ski mask; what more do you need? Henry Hill wasn't wrong when he explained in Goodfellas, "Nobody goes to jail unless they want to. Unless they make themselves get caught."
Is that really the only thing keeping the police in business? Are there actually criminals who want to be caught?
Yes. Yes there are. Here are seven of them.
#7. The Man Who Tried to Cash a Check for $360 Billion
Stockbyte/Stockbyte/Getty Images
"One last big score" is a common trope in crime movies. A criminal who's tired of the game, but knows no other way of life. He has no appetite to make it on his own in the real, honest world. And so he pulls one last job with a payoff big enough to set himself up for life so he doesn't have to become, like, a fish salesman, or whatever people in the real world do.
Which brings us to Charles Ray Fuller, whose "last big score" was also apparently his "first, clumsy score," kind of the premature ejaculation of bank fraud. One bright spring day, Fuller decided to walk into his local bank and attempt to cash a check for $360 billion.
Barbara Penoyar/Photodisc/Getty Images
"Is it hot in here? It feels hot in here. Can someone please open a godforsaken window in here?"
The bank, curiously, suspected something was up and notified the police. But that's not the interesting part of this story. The interesting part is what was going through this guy's head when he walked into that bank? Did he think this small bank had $360 billion in cash on hand? Did he really understand how much money that actually was? He could have tipped the entire planet into recession if he'd pulled this off. But of course the answer is that nothing was going through his head when he tried this. By even daring to consider this stunt, our man Fuller demonstrated a pretty horrendous lack of understanding about how checks, banking, and possibly zeros work.
Stockbyte/Getty Images
"Those are zeros? I thought those were little assholes."
#6. The Shotgun Landscaper
Hemera Technologies/PhotoObjects.net/Getty Images
This story is very close to being heartwarming, unlike some of the other items on this list. This isn't a crime of intent. This man wanted to do a nice thing -- to go get a sprig of mistletoe to decorate his house for the holidays. And although cynicism rules the day on the Internet, we should generally applaud and celebrate people who try to do nice things.
Except when they do those nice things with shotguns. We should applaud, yes, because niceeeeeee. But it is also our duty to mock those people.
People like Bill Robinson, who used his shotgun (which is not known as "the scalpel of the firearms world") to shoot a sprig of mistletoe down from a tree in a mall parking lot. This attracted the attention of the local constabulary, who we like to think had to scour their police code book for quite a while to come up with the right way to call this one in.
Thinkstock Images/Comstock/Getty Images
"We got a uh ... 2 ... 4 ... tree? Landscaping with a deadly weapon. Send ... an arborist, I guess?"
In Robinson's defense, he was kind of doing this off to the side of the mall parking lot and not, you know, by the little coin-operated spaceship that kids ride. And the thing was just loaded with bird shot, which wasn't going to do a ton of damage if it missed. And he didn't miss! He got that goddamned tree on the first try!
In his offense, he fired a shotgun in a mall parking lot.
That was kind of enough for the courts, it turned out.
#5. The Drug Telemarketer
George Doyle/Valueline/Getty Images
The Wire showed us that selling drugs can be a very complicated business, and that those who do it successfully operate with a very high degree of professionalism. Even at the street level, there are processes and procedures related to money handling and drug hand-offs that have to be strictly adhered to to limit exposure to rivals and police surveillance.
An example of one of those procedures: Don't call someone on the phone and offer to sell them drugs. That's called a narco no-no. And if you forget that because of some catastrophic head injury you've recently suffered, at least remember that if you call someone to sell them drugs and the person replies that you got the wrong number, do not offer to sell that person drugs.
Hemera Technologies/AbleStock.com/Getty Images
For one thing, it's just rude. You could have interrupted that person's dinner.
Which is exactly what a teenage boy in Florida didn't remember when his wrong number connected him purely by chance to a police officer, whom he promptly attempted to sell drugs to.
Jupiterimages/Photos.com/Getty Images
Never interrupt a cop's dinner.
The police officer, to his credit, said "Sure," instead of laughing for 40 seconds, and shortly thereafter set up what must have been the world's easiest sting.
David De Lossy/Photodisc/Getty Images
We kind of hope that to avoid getting up, he set the buy to go down on his own couch.
#4. The Pornography Inspector
Comstock/Getty Images
People who work in the retail and service sectors don't get a ton of respect. Which isn't really fair; although these are often entry level jobs, companies don't give control of their cash and inventory to just anyone. These positions require a fairly high level of responsibility and aren't staffed by complete idiots.
So a scheme that requires a video store clerk to have gerbil-like levels of cognition and savvy isn't likely to succeed, as Andrew Libby discovered in 2008 when he walked -- no, let's say sauntered -- into a video store and claimed that he worked for the state's "Age Verification Unit" and would need copies of pornography tapes to verify that the performers were of legal age. He even had a badge with him.
Creatas/Getty Images
Artist's interpretation.
This, surprisingly, didn't work. And if Libby had walked away then, this would have gone down as little more than an amusing story that the store clerk shared with his friends. Except Libby came back. Two more times. Both times with the exact same story, delivered in what we hope was an increasingly pleading tone. At that point the video store employees apparently approached the police with surveillance footage of the mastermind at work. A brief survey of the local underworld later ...
Thinkstock Images/Comstock/Getty Images
"A slope-browed, ponytailed idiot? That's Andrew. You're looking for Andrew."
... the police had their slope-browed, ponytailed man.

5 Recent Trends That Make It Hard to Trust the Police
If there's one thing I think we can all agree on, it's that, much like clowns, everybody loves a cop. And for good reason! After all, in the unfortunate event that one of us should fall victim to a crime, who are we going to call first? No matter what my N.W.A-based childhood understanding of law enforcement taught me, the answer, of course, is the police.
There are some among us, though, who've developed a slightly less positive opinion of law enforcement. That likely explains why, out of all the fascinating stats in this article about things that are more deadly than terrorism, this was the one that blew up on Twitter:
Because there are way more cops, you see.
What is it that compels some people to take a less than favorable stance on the public service that police provide? If I had to guess, I'd say it probably has something to do with stories like those presented here, which seem to be popping up at an alarming rate these days.
Here are five recent trends that make it hard to trust the police ...
#5. They're Becoming Way Too Fond of Anal Probes
Photodisc/Photodisc/Getty Images
Anal probes are the kind of thing we like to pretend only exist in ridiculous alien abduction stories. We're most inclined to associate them with the shadier doings of the TSA, but that's not something they actually do. To put it simply, getting probed anally is not a common thing. Unfortunately, in some locales, that's a comfort the police are taking away from us.
Maybe it's because alien sightings are so frequent in the area, but this is especially true in New Mexico, where anal probing during routine traffic stops is reaching terrifying new levels. I mean, any anal probing during a traffic stop is pretty terrifying, but New Mexico really goes all out. Or all in, I suppose. That probably fits a little better in this situation.
Comstock/Stockbyte/Getty Images
Like a glove!
Cracked already covered the first anal probe horror story to come out of Heisenberg country a few days ago. Everyone has covered it, because it's goddamn crazy. It involves a man named David Eckert who was subjected to a colonoscopy, two rectal exams, and three enemas for no other crime than rolling through a stop sign while leaving a Walmart.
Scott Olson/Getty Images News/Getty Images
Beware of falling prices and unwanted anal penetration.
You know, the police probably assumed that a person who just got done shopping at Walmart doesn't have much dignity left for them to take, so what could a surprise colonoscopy hurt? And besides, they'd already done the exact same thing to another man not long before this incident and nobody raised a stink about it that time. At least they didn't until the David Eckert story broke, at which point the first man filed suit against the police also. If you're keeping score at home, that's two unwanted anal probe lawsuits currently pending against police in New Mexico.
Two is also the operative number in a terrifying story out of Texas in which a female officer gave two women vaginal and rectal exams right at the side of the road. Relax, she wore gloves. Now unrelax, because she didn't change gloves between exams. Two girls, one pair of gloves, if you will. If that sounds unbelievable, I have great news -- it was caught on video:
So was the second nearly identical incident that also happened in Texas.
Once again, it should be noted that the officer doesn't change gloves between exams. That's fucking nasty.
As noted in the lawsuits filed on behalf of the victims, the fact that both incidents bear such a striking resemblance to each other even though they happened at opposite ends of the state means that, somewhere, young police academy recruits are likely being told that fingering lady parts is a constitutionally acceptable aspect of any thorough traffic stop, which, of course, is madness.
Oh, and speaking of unlawful entry ...
#4. They're Constantly Raiding the Wrong House
Fiona Goodall/Getty Images News/Getty Images
Police kicking down an innocent person's door is only funny when it happens to someone you know and no one is seriously injured. Beyond that, police showing up at the wrong address often makes for a horrifying story, and it happens constantly.
Sometimes you can say that literally, as is the case with an elderly Brooklyn couple who, thanks to a computer glitch, have had police at their doorstep in error more than 50 times. After Walter and Rose Martin unknowingly had their address used to test an NYPD computer system in 2002, the visits started, sometimes up to three in one week. I don't know if I've even had 50 legitimate visits to my residence by anyone, police or otherwise, since 2002*.
*Medical deliveries excluded.
That said, at least they were relatively peaceful and non-destructive visits. Most people who find themselves on the business end of a bust gone wrong aren't so lucky, like the Massachusetts woman who had her door chainsawed in half by police targeting the wrong apartment.
That's going to be hard to fix.
They eventually tracked down the suspect they were actually looking for in the apartment next door. How a person on the run from the law doesn't take police power-tooling their neighbor's entryway as a sign that they should probably flee the scene is beyond me, but alas, that's how that story ends. Once again, the bright side here is that at least it all ended without anyone getting seriously injured. Sadly, that's not always the case.
When police in Arizona raided the home of 26-year-old former Marine Jose Guerana as part of a botched marijuana sting, he armed himself with an AR-15 rifle in an effort to protect his wife and child from intruders he had no reason to believe would be police. After his door was broken down, 70 rounds were unloaded in Jose Guerana's direction in just seven seconds. He died shortly thereafter. It was later revealed that he hadn't even disengaged the safety on his weapon at the time of the shooting.
Nothing funny about that!
#3. NYC Harasses Minorities for Being Minorities
Spencer Platt/Getty Images News/Getty Images
Remember when New York City had that insane "stop and frisk" policy that allowed them to literally stop anyone for no reason at all and pat them down? It was eventually challenged in court and ruled unconstitutional by U.S. District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin, a true victory for fans of civil rights. That's where the story ended for most people when the Big Brother-esque program was making news, but an appeals court quietly overturned the ruling a few months later and removed Scheindlin from the case.
Creatas/Creatas/Getty Images
Is that constitutional?
In other words, "stop and frisk" is back in effect in NYC, which means it's a terrible time to be a minority in that city because, at one point, an astounding 87 percent of people targeted for searches were African-American or Latino. It's hard to argue that the program amounts to anything more than institutionalized racial profiling when the numbers skew that way.
Even more troubling is the fact that the "stop and frisk" program has now partnered up with NYC retailers to make sure shopping is just as tense and invasive for people of color as simply walking around minding your own business already is right now in the city. Specifically, high-end retailer Barney's apparently refuses to believe that being black and owning expensive shit don't have to be mutually exclusive.
In one incident, a college student named Trayon Christian was stopped after a cashier called police to inform them that the 19-year-old had purchased a $350 Salvatore Ferragamo belt using fraudulent means. When authorities questioned the young student, he was allegedly asked how someone "like him" could afford such a luxury, which is the police interrogation version of praising a black athlete for being "well spoken," I believe.
As it turns out, he purchased the belt using money he saved up at a part time job, so his only real crime was spending hard-earned money in absurd ways.
A bargain at one-tenth of the price!
He produced identification, the debit card he purchased the belt with, and a sales receipt, all of which were still not sufficient evidence of his innocence. It wasn't until after authorities made a call to Chase to verify his identity that Christian was allowed to leave.
He promptly returned the belt to Barney's.
And then Barney's promptly returned to the headlines! This time, the shopper was a woman and the purchase was even sillier (a $2,500 Celine handbag), but other than that, the details were the same -- a police shakedown prompted by nothing more than making a purchase without looking like the "traditional" Barney's shopper.
Check out their exclusive Jay-Z collection now!
I guess $850 leather baseball caps with the word "Brooklyn" on the front are strictly the domain of the white man.

He 'still' deceives and has zero credibility left. Lies and taxing and spending us into more unpayable debt is all Obama offers to any problem. Our problems 'worsen' due to his socialist mindset. Thinking like a socialist in a Free Nation like ours isn't acceptable and won't be tolerated. He's all talk and deceit. He's narcissistic by nature and only wants everyone to 'like' him and cares nothing about anyone else or problems that need solved. He's clueless on so many topics it's a wonder the guy can walk by himself as we already know he can't talk by himself. Many times as his telemprompter (his REAL mouthpiece) broke down...we saw this incompetent man's 'real' character; clueless, defunct of any signs of intelligent life or common sense! He touts a form of socialistic govt that has been proven for generations to always FAIL. Guess lefties love failure; hate success.

The ultimate goal of cancer treatment is to rid the body of every malignant cell so the patient has the best chance for a very good or complete remission.
For more than two years, we have been conducting phase I and II clinical studies with that goal in mind. Our focus: to learn whether combining a targeted radioactive drug with high-dose chemotherapy can enhance the prospect of wiping out all of the destructive myeloma cells without increasing risk to the patient. While it's still too early to pass final judgment, we are encouraged by the results we've seen to date.
Our studies have involved the drug Quadramet; its technical name is "153-samarium EDTMP." Quadramet belongs to a new class of drugs that target radiation directly to bone and spare the rest of the body from exposure. The drug was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) several years ago for easing pain resulting from cancer spread to bone. It consists of a radioisotope, or radioactive atom, wrapped inside a molecule that binds very tightly to bone. The radioisotope is 153-samarium – an atom whose nucleus contains a total of 153 protons and neutrons – and the wrapper is EDTMP (ethylene diamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid), which binds to bone.
We know myeloma cells are sensitive to radiation. Indeed, until about five years ago, combining chemotherapy with whole-body radiation from an external source was standard practice in myeloma patients undergoing stem-cell transplantation. But the toxicity from chemotherapy combined with whole-body radiation caused more damage to normal organs. So radiotherapy was dropped from the treatment regimen.
The current treatment for myeloma recommends chemotherapy administered intravenously to reach wherever cancer cells may be hiding. To boost the odds that no cancer cell will survive, very high doses of chemotherapy drugs are used. Side effects may result because the chemotherapy drugs target not only cancer cells, but also all fast-dividing cells. Especially vulnerable are the all-important bone marrow blood producing cells that reside in bone marrow and serve our circulatory, blood clotting and immune systems.
To prevent that destruction while still hitting cancer hard, many otherwise healthy myeloma patients undergo a procedure called bone-marrow stem-cell rescue. Stem cells are removed from the patient by a special IV, then frozen and stored. After the patient has completed the chemotherapy treatments, the stem cells are intravenously infused back into the patient to begin the process of producing healthy blood cells.
There is no question that stem-cell transplantation improves a myeloma patient's chances of survival. But unfortunately, almost every transplant patient eventually suffers a relapse. The most likely reason for the relapse is that the high-dose chemotherapy given before the stem-cell transplantation failed to kill all the myeloma cells in the patient's bone marrow.
Now a new class of radionuclide therapy drugs that targets radiation to specific sites of cancer in the body is being developed. Quadramet is one of the new targeted radiation drugs. Its availability is causing researchers to look again at the use of radiation for treatment of myeloma.
With Quadramet, molecules that do not bind to bone are rapidly excreted. This means levels of unwanted radioactivity delivered to the rest of the body remain low and do not damage organs or other parts of the body where there is no cancer. The drug has an excellent safety record when used for treating pain from other cancers spread to bone. Its chief side effect is that at high doses it tends to deplete bone marrow cells. Interestingly, this drawback could be a plus for myeloma therapy because our aim is to kill diseased bone-marrow cells before intravenously reinfusing the patient with his or her own stem cells to make new, healthy bone-marrow and blood cells.
In early 2000, we began a phase 1 clinical study to determine how much Quadramet we could give patients without further harming their bone marrow. We treated 12 myeloma patients with increasing doses of Quadramet. The regimen was basically the same for all patients: after undergoing bone-marrow stem-cell collection, each patient received a 30-minute infusion of Quadramet. Twelve days after that, each patient got an approximately 60-minute infusion of the standard dose of melphalan (the chemotherapy drug most commonly used for transplantation of myeloma). Then two days later, each patient received intravenously his or her own stem cells. This reinfusion procedure took about 15 minutes to a half-hour. Patients were monitored throughout the entire process for toxicity and to confirm that the newly transplanted cells had started functioning in the bone marrow.
We found that giving Quadramet plus standard chemotherapy before stem-cell transplantation produced no greater toxic effects than chemotherapy and transplantation done without radiotherapy. This successful outcome prompted us to proceed to our phase II study, which involved 46 patients.
Because every patient absorbs and metabolizes drugs somewhat differently, for our phase II study we gave each patient an individually measured amount of Quadramet. The dose level was based on "test dosing" to determine how much Quadramet each patient should have to safely target the same radiation to the bone marrow in each patient.
In both studies, patients were evaluated 100 days after their stem-cell transplants for evidence of residual myeloma. Our goal was to see at least 50 percent of the patients achieve either a complete response or a very good partial response. We're pleased to report that we appear to be seeing that outcome.
Both our phase I and phase II studies are now completed and all of the data will be evaluated later this year. Then we will have more statistically valid evidence about the use of Quadramet for treatment of myeloma.
At this juncture, we know that Quadramet given prior to melphalan chemotherapy does give significantly more treatment to the myeloma cells than with the chemotherapy alone and currently we have not seen any additional toxic effects. Our measurements verify that the radiation delivered by Quadramet to organs other than bone was well within safety limits.
While we're enthusiastic about the promising indications, we want to temper our enthusiasm with this caution – these are early results. More research through a randomized phase III clinical study needs to be conducted to conclusively determine the value of Quadramet for treatment of myeloma. Hopefully, future studies will substantiate these early results and take us another step forward in our efforts to combat myeloma, help patients live longer and improve the quality of their lives.

For much of their history in America, Lutherans have divided church territories into regions called "synods,'' which means "coming together.''
But it's only been since 1988, after three major Lutheran faith groups came together to form the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, that the Lutherans have really lived the meaning of that word.
This year, the ELCA, consisting of 65 synods nationwide, will celebrate the 25th anniversary of that union.
They truly have overcome their differences and banded together to form a unified Lutheran church in America, said Pastor Elizabeth "Eli" Hess of Trinity Lutheran Church in Juniata.
"We can accomplish more as one voice that we could when we were all separate,'' she said.
It was not an easy journey because the three major faith groups - the American Lutheran Church, the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches and the Lutheran Church of America - had to give and take to form the ELCA, said Pastor Michael Rhyne of Newry Lutheran and Geeseytown Lutheran churches.
Lutherans have a tradition of being outspoken which dates back to the 1500s when Martin Luther broke with the Roman Catholic Church, Rhyne said.
"It's been the history of the Lutherans to say when there's something wrong,'' he said. "It's good in that Martin Luther said some things that had never been said before. But it can put a strain on things if people sense it as a threat.''
German and Scandinavian immigrants made up the bulk of the Lutheran churches in America, Hess said, which is why they kept their separate identities for so long.
But as America has changed, so has the need to keep ethnic identities separate, she said.
Another part of the process to form the ELCA was a change in the role of the bishops, said Bishop Gregory Pile.
Before the heads of the synods were called presidents. They basically saw to the pastors' financial and administrative needs but hardly ever saw the people. That's all changed in the past 25 years, Pile said.
"I'm able to know pretty much what's going on in all 118 congregations,'' said Pile, one of the most senior bishops in the ELCA. "Most people know their bishop more closely than in the past.''
Pile oversees the Allegheny Synod, which was formerly known as the Central Pennsylvania Synod.
He said the title being changed from president to bishop was intentional, changing the focus of the leader's work away from his desk and onto the congregation.
"Leaders are called to be presidents and 'bishops' speaks to being more pastoral,'' Pile said.
Both Hess and Rhyne said the churches have welcomed the support of the bishop.
"I think they started to see that the pastors, as well as the parishioners, needed that kind of pastoral care,'' Hess said.
The change has meant bishops put a lot of miles on their cars. Pile joked that his wife is amazed at the shortcuts he knows through the Allegheny Highlands.
He oversees about 35,000 people in seven counties: Blair, Bedford, Huntingdon, Clearfield, Centre, Somerset and Cambria. The Allegheny Synod also contains a small section in Maryland.
In contrast, the former Central Pennsylvania Synod had 600 congregations and covered a wider territory, including Harrisburg.
Like other churches, Pile said the ELCA has lost members since its inception and the Allegheny Synod is no exception.
When it formed in 1988, the synod had about 45,000 members. People have left for a variety of reasons, he said. Many people these days just don't like to belong to any religious organization, and others leave churches because of the abuse scandals, he said.
Still others left the ELCA because in 2009, it chose to accept members, especially pastors, who chose lifelong monogamous same-sex relationships, Pile said.
Rhyne said he was in seminary in the South when discussion about the topic of the same-sex relationships started brewing. Yelling matches broke out, but he said eventually, people were able to discuss the issue.
"One thing about this church is that we do have this dialogue,'' Rhyne said. "But it was a very painful decision for many people.''
The synod will celebrate the ELCA anniversary June 6 with a dinner at the Blair County Convention Center. It will be the beginning of its three-day annual synod assembly, a gathering of laity and associates in ministry, diaconal ministers and pastors for renewal and decision making.
The date marks the 25th anniversary of the Constituting Convention of the synod that was held at the First Lutheran Church in Altoona in 1987.

So it appears we are exploring the following forward options:
1. Stephen Weiss
2. Mike Ribiero
3. Matt Cullen
4. Jerome Iginla
And on defense:
1. Andrew Ference
2. Marek Zidlicky
The thought is that if they acquire a defensemen this off-season, Quincey will probably be dealt. I'm sure this is music to many ears, if winding up true. I'm not sure I'd like Zidlicky, but I do like the idea of Ference, being that he is a steady stay at home that could mentor some of the youth. I'd like him over Quincey for sure.

You don't use 3g worth on a device. You'd have to have 5 browers open at once, notes, email, 5 games, and a lot more. Android manages RAM in a very unique way that is both good for battery life, overheating, and so on. If my phone was using 3g's worth, i'd be concerned. That's a lot of memory and it means you should get off your phone and go do something outside.

They are, in my opinion, trying to make it a desktop replacement. Where you can bluetooth a mouth and keyboard and hook it up to a monitor and use it that way. It is possible with the note II but the amount of RAM made it a bit boggy at times.

Yeah it's definitely not needed at this point. But this seems to be Samsung's way. Rather than tightly develop their software they just throw big hardware at the problem. Not really sure why they may feel 3GB of ram is needed.
57. Pedro0x (Posts: 271; Member since: 19 Oct 2012)
Once ARM releases 64-bit chips, we will be able to use our phones as computers. And even today we can use Note 2 for example as a small computer.

All products that use ram, can never have enough. If you want to keep your Note 3 for just two years 3 gb of ram will probably start showing its age. Ram is generally the cheapest way to increase speed in just about any device so more is better. Arguing to the opposite seems silly. What do you care? That extra ram chip didn't raise the price of the phone, it only helps speed up the phone and helps it maintain it's speed long term too. "640K ought to be enough for anybody" ya, how'd that work out Uncle Willy? One of the richest, smartest men in the world, ever said that lol

Just state your opinion. Neither do you have to explain yourself nor bother about people downvoting your comments.
Regarding the topic, it's all about pushing the boundaries. Remember the time when people thought 720p displays on smartphones was overkill? Fast-forward two years and now we have got 1080p displays! Of course, RAM cannot be compared with displays but still there won't be a saturation point for RAM unlike the resolution of displays on smartphones.
42. BadAssAbe (Posts: 456; Member since: 22 Apr 2011)
Let me explain why I ( tech guy) need/want more more ram
Widgets, on my phone I have at least 1 widget on each home screen but I want to have at least 2 but can't because the phone will lag
Live wallpaper, yes I love my live wallpapers
Small muititasking,
Now let me explain why my little sister (non tech HS girl) needs more ram than me.
She has over 14 widgets on her SGS4, and a live one direction wallpaper. Phone runs smooth only because she loves to swipe to exit task.
With more ram I can get even better widgets, I love widgets and so do HS GIrls

5" is enough dude, don't go above 5". who told u that we need above 5",
jealous.....!!! and samsung was't find 5" get that. ok
looks like u r samdung fanboy. now tell me r u guys making iphone 5 joke now make by your self and sammy joke about getting bigger and bigger.
and still samdung is cheap and breakable. if my n8 drop on s4 or note2 it will be 4 pieces. get that too.

so, obviously you love your nokia and are unwilling to rationalize with anyone that supports other companies
86. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
What i wanna say is when samsung tried to make 4.8" and 5.3" all haters gone wild and saying like ur comment #72.. but when all manufacturers are now inclind w/5", now thats enough, hmm
Im a fan of samsung coz they revolutionzed android and thats a fact, i dont care abt ur n8 coz i hate their ecosystem and i dont want bulky devices.. i just have 808 for camera.
Am i jealous? Where dd u get that logic? I dont care abt ur nokia dwvice w/ small crappy display, i have a note2 and only note3 can beat this beast, after usinh note2, ur nokia devices feels cheaper,, if i know, inside u u r jealous w/ android world of big and brilliant displays..
And samsung isnt forcng u to buy their devices and it seems ur interested always and commenting and bashing like ur the worst person in ds world.
87. akki20892 (Posts: 3901; Member since: 04 Feb 2013)
oh so u own Nokia 808,but i thought u don't like bulky device, and r u sure that nokia device feel cheap. replace your word first. get that. and i don't care about samdung. u know what nokia is making 5" because of they want to make phablet not smarphone ok. and nokia don't have 5" hope u get this really well.
jealous boy
90. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
Ddnt u get it? 808 just for its topnotch camera oh cmon, nokia is running slow in tech world, and even their fanboys are running slow in comprehension haha.
U dont care abt samsung, why visit every samsung artcle? Cmon ur too errrr...
Did i say nokia have 5"? Haha, if nokia will venture in 5" 720p/1080p android smartphone, then i would also venture into them.
Again im not jealous, whr are u pckng those ideas? Cmon if someon will give me a nokia for free, i will sell it immediately and buy a brilliant amoled smartphone w/ android goodness. :)

The truth about how bad the HTC ones build quality really is.
If you think Samsung is bad you better think twice.
Anyone who says Samsung is cheap for plastic this is for you.
"1. With its externals, HTC One has the unibody structure which is defective unlike that of iPhone. Plastic was used to fill the gap between aluminum pieces in the back as well as the side. The glue seems to be used for their front speaker cover parts at top and bottom to attach those to the body. You can see how its speaker cover falls apart easily from"
98. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
I actually hate the verge for gvng s4 5/10 for design, s3 whch is somewhat ugly coz of large bezels left &ryt top & bottom got 8/10 while s4 got 5? What d heck haha. Thats d only factor that htc one got higher rating than s4. The other 9 measrmnt factors say theyr equal and mostly on d side of s4

5. sharks (Posts: 236; Member since: 16 Feb 2013)
Specs-wise, other than the expected refresh in bumping up the RAM and a faster CPU, the really distinguishing factors from the S4, will be the build quality (aluminium body) and exclusive software features that aren't already in the S4.

I have a feeling that RAM is becoming a gimmick for android phones just like megapixels for cameras. I guess what miracles a 3gb ram can do to a android smartphone when a full fledged windows 8 OS can run without any lag on a 2GB DDR2 machine, let alone windows phones. Bottom line is : DONT FALL FOR THIS MARKETING TRAP!!!!
