But now with a 3 year hiatus with only nominal input from the user community I don't think it stacks up well at all against the competition especially on a large screen like a TV. My other concern is if LG moves towards webOS on their TV's this will further detach their other devices like android smartphones and tablets from the living room experience and fragment the LG experience as a whole since I don't think they will be going with webOS on phones or tablets any time soon. This can only hurt LG if it doesn't go well and they will fall further behind in the connected TV market race. Won't affect me though as I would never consider buying an LG tv any way. |
They would not have bought it without a plan in place. This is probably saving them money in the long run, and they get to tweak it any way that they want to. |
I'm a little saddened by this. WebOS had major potential years ago, and now it's just being relegated to a freaking TV screen. |

@PlatinumGamerX You hate analog sticks? Well, I think it gives you more precision... That's just my opinion.
@XCWarrior, @Super-Mario-Fan What are you talking about? Remember the PS3's launch price? It was as high as $599.99; that had little storage back then. The Wii's launch price was $249.99. And the Wii U for $299.99? It's better than I expected (which was $349.99). Now of course this isn't the final price. But if it does retail for $299.99, I'm sold.
Oh of course! More kart parts and characters would be great!
I want Toadette! She's my battle character.
Yes. New tracks for Mario Kart 7 is wonderful. I wish they can take Maka Wuhu away and replace with a non-glitch track... Not gonna happen though.
The suitable price for the Wii U would be $349.99. It can't be $299 because that was the PS3's price for a good amount of time and the Wii U is more powerful/has more features. Wii U FTW!
Is this Nintendo Of America being generous??? Well... the tables have turned. Seriously, THIS is a big surprise; especially from NOA!
@Rapadash6 Yes. But remember the days when video game consoles were just about pure video games?

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Waste Water to Be Bottled & Sold in India
Though water is still often collected from taps in many places, as an estimated 1600 people die daily across the country from contaminated water supplies, the market for purified bottled water is growing. Water jugs waiting to be filled, photo by: McKay Savage.
Here's a market synergy you might not have seen coming: Bottling purified waste water from manufacturing hydrogen fuel cells and selling it at fuel stations. That's just what Indian firm Bharat Petroleum has indicated it will being doing. Shareholders approved the bottled water business earlier in the summer, and the Mumbai-based company says it has tentative plans to build a 1000 MW hydrogen fuel cell plant within the next three to five years (Cleantech). So, how much purified water will it be able to produce?The company says that from every 1000 MW of energy from the hydrogen fuel cells it will be able to produce 1 million tonnes of water. This would allow Bharat Petroleum to break into the $312 million Indian bottled water market, an industry which is growing at 10-25% annually.
How About Cleaning Up Tap Water?Considering the waste that is generated from bottled water, perhaps a better solution to reducing the number of deaths from contaminated water in India is actually doing something to improve the cleanliness of tap water, like these Ashoka Changemakers are doing, or those organizations taking part in the Clinton Global Initiative Water and Sanitation Mega-Commitment are doing.

Greate program failedPros: Android app is great. Interface is nice. Cons: Cannot edit or really modify the budget. Quicken has taken a good tool and wrecked it. The budgeting in quicken use to be a great tool. But in this version you cannot edit the budget amounts or easily select the categories you want included. They took a very user friendly tool and made it almost impossible to use. Other Thoughts: I have been using quicken for at least 10 years years now. I have never considered using anything else until now. I spent 109.00 for this and haf of what I do with it I cannot no longer do. Very sad day. 6 out of 8 people found this review helpful.

Fodor's To Europe!
Days 10-11 or more
Munich is the center of archetypal Germany: oompah bands, liters of beer, flashy cars, and scads of museums. It's not subtle, but it's a very entertaining city to visit. And between the museums and the city's ample parkland, it's a very kid-friendly destination.
Learn more about Munich »
- History
- Art and Culture
- Museums
- Even if you miss Oktoberfest, head to the Hofbräuhaus for a pint (or a liter) of fine German suds. Try one of the seasonal beers in summer.
- The German Museum, on an island in the Isar River, contains all manner of planes, trains, and automobiles from Germany's past. One wing of the museum is for kids.
- Germany's largest city park, the Englischer Garten, has a boating lake, four beer gardens, and a series of themed temples. Note that certain parts of the park are popular for nude sunbathing (which is unrelated to the four beer gardens—promise).
- Oktoberfest is the world's foremost beer festival. It starts in late September and runs through early October.
- German Mardi Gras, called Fasching, is a spectacle just as wild as its cousins in Brazil and Louisiana.
Side Trips
- Schloss Neuschwanstein, one of the world's most famous castles, is 2½ hours from Munich by train.
- The lakeside retreat of Starnberg is a popular destination for locals in the summertime.

As a comedian, actor and podcast innovator Chris Hardwick has a busy schedule but he'll definitely be keeping a close watch on his Silver Lake Atom Splitters team in the inaugural Professional Bowlers Association League. The PBA League makes its debut with a live telecast of the first round Sunday at noon ET on ESPN from Thunderbowl Lanes in suburban Detroit.
Hardwick, the creator of the popular Internet comedy podcast The Nerdist, and the son of PBA Hall of Fame bowler Billy Hardwick, will be rooting on his Atom Splitters which features franchise player Chris Barnes, the 2007-08 PBA Player of the Year and 14-time PBA Tour titlist, Nathan Bohr, British stars Dom Barrett and Stuart Williams, 2011-12 PBA Rookie of the Year Josh Blanchard and supplemental player Jon VanHees.
"I like Chris Barnes," said Hardwick, who brings Silver Lake, Calif. its first big time sports team. "I talked it over with my dad and he was very supportive of Chris being the franchise pick. I think the whole team has a good chemistry."
It was chemistry in the literal sense that proved to be the inspiration for his team name and logo named after the town of Silver Lake near his home in southern California.
"I think it's a brilliant idea to involve celebrities who obviously either enjoy or have a passion for bowling to promote the sport," Hardwick added. "Plus, I'm proud to give Silver Lake its first professional sports team.
"I was looking for something that was modern but nostalgic at the same time," Hardwick added. "It represents the 60s when we had the jet age and it was when my dad was bowling on Tour. Bowling is also all about physics whether you're talking bowling ball dynamics or what it takes to make a good delivery."
Hardwick is very confident of his team's chances of taking home the Elias Cup which will be awarded to the winning team when the 2013 PBA League season culminates with the finals that will be telecast at 1 p.m. ET on ESPN April 7.
"I feel great about the team," said Barnes. "Everyone I drafted was in the top 25 in points last year. They all have the ability to play straight or hook the ball. With the exception of me, they're all young. They are all team players. "
Other teams and their owners making up the PBA League are: Former NFL greats Jerome Bettis (Motown Muscle) and Terrell Owens (Dallas Strikers); NBA superstar Chris Paul (L.A. X); sports icon Billie Jean King (New York City WTT KingPins); Pittsburgh Steelers all-pro linebacker LaMarr Woodley (Pittsburgh Jack Rabbits), Grey's Anatomy star Jesse Williams (BROOKLYN STyLES) and comedian Kevin Hart (Philadelphia Hitmen).
Hardwick also started "All Star Celebrity Bowling" on The Nerdist YouTube channel, a team charity bowling match where he and three Nerdist employees take on teams of celebrities such as the casts of Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Mythbusters and Team Conan.
The Nerdist will expand from numerous pop-culture specials to a 10-episode season on BBC America that will kick off in spring 2013 as part of the cable network's "Supernatural Saturday" programming block.
As for any advice or words of inspiration that Hardwick will pass on to his team as it gets ready for the Winter Swing, Hardwick responded, "Yes, I'm going to tell them to don't let me get in the way and just let them do what they do best."

Those tall connifers make this look like a view of Hong Kong! Lots of depth in layers and the sky in the background is very interesting and dramatic. I get a real feeling of mediterranean warmth from the colours.
Being formative, while the path provides some interesting FG it does lead one's eye out of frame rather than into the view and so I'd be tempted if I were shooting it to lose it all together if I couldn't make it lead in. There's plenty of interesting shrubbery there to act as FG interest instead.

Officer Vann Streety
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) Officer Vann Streety is recovering well from injuries he sustained in a July 2009 shooting that occurred while working in Brevard County.
Streety reports he is feeling healthy, both emotionally and physically. His left arm, injured by a .45-caliber round, has healed well. He is continuing with the physical therapy on his right hand so he can return to work and help other officers train and prepare for similar types of attacks.
The case against the defendant, Christopher Eddy, is progressing. Tammy Temple, who was in the car during the shooting, was in court today. She pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact to premeditated, attempted first-degree murder on a law enforcement officer and was sentenced to two years in prison and three years probation.
On July 15, 2009, Streety was checking a subject in a wooded area when the man shot him six times. With Streety seriously wounded and on the ground, the subject escaped, triggering a manhunt that lasted two days.
Throughout this difficult situation, Streety has persevered. His message to his fellow officers is to always be thinking and planning for the "what-if" scenarios.
"Wear your vest," Streety said. "Sweat washes off; bullets don't."
To read more about the night of Officer Streety's ordeal, go to the Police One website at www.policeone.com/pc_print.asp?vid=2000595.
Streety was recently nominated for America's Most Wanted's 2010 "All-Star" award. To view the nominees or vote, go to www.amw.com/allstar/2010/.

How far will tech firms go to help oppressive governments?
A little more than half of Internet stakeholders surveyed by Pew Internet expected -- or more likely were optimistic about -- a future with greater corporate responsibility when it comes to supporting human rights through technology, according to a study released today (PDF).
The study highlights the ongoing discussion of the tech industry's role in politics, activism, and freedom speech. Recent news highlighting growing discontent of censorship and unethical business practices further push the issue.

Datebook: March 18 - Rudolf Diesel Turns 155
German inventor and mechanical engineer Rudolf Diesel was born on this day in 1858. He developed the Diesel engine, which became an important replacement for the piston engine, and more fuel efficient than gasoline engines. Although, he may not have known the significance of his own design. In 1913, Diesel suffered a mysterious death on the passenger steam ship SS Dresden.

If allowed to take effect, HB 497 will significantly harm Utahans, particularly Utahans of color. According to law enforcement officials in Utah and elsewhere, HB 497 will cause widespread racial profiling and will subject many persons of colorincluding countless U.S. citizens and non-citizens who have federal permission to remain in the United Statesto unlawful interrogations, searches, seizures, and arrests. People of color in the state will be compelled to carry additional paperwork on them at all times in order to prove to law enforcement officials that their presence in the country is approved by the federal government.
Several other state legislatures have also acted recently to implement so-called "Arizona style" immigration laws. Last month, the Indiana House of Representatives [official website] approved legislation [JURIST report] to revoke tax credits from businesses that hire illegal immigrants and require the use of the E-verify System [official website] to check the eligibility status of employees. Also in April, the Georgia General Assembly [official website] approved a bill requiring police to check the immigration status of anyone they have probable cause to believe has committed a criminal offense and requiring businesses to use E-Verify to check the immigration status of potential employees. Similar legislation has also been approved in Alabama, Virginia and Oklahoma [JURIST reports]. Arizona's law is currently enjoined, pending a ruling by the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

Toledo Police are looking for the man who tried to steal a woman's service dog off a bus.
TARTA surveillance video shows a man grabbing the leash Arrica Okenka's service dog while the bus is stopped, and attempting to take the dog off the bus.
"At first, I thought maybe it was an accident," Okenka said. "[Like] he had just caught the leash."
Okenka said she soon realized the man was trying to take her dog, and she held onto the leash so tight, her hand started bleeding.
"What would he have done with her?" she asked. "I don't even want to think about it, that's why I had such a death grip on her, I wasn't letting her go."
Okenka says her 5-year-old Golden Retriever, Ingrid, is not just a companion, but a necessity. Okenka was diagnosed at birth with cerebral palsy. She is wheelchair bound, but Ingrid helps her pick up things, close doors, and even get dressed.
"She's my best friend," she said. "You know that statement that they say: A dog is a person's best friend? It really, really applies to her."
Now Okenka is just hoping the man gets caught.
"Maybe the judge can make him train dogs for other handicap people," she said.
Police are asking anyone that recognizes the man to call Crimestopper at 419-255-1111.

When opening ANY dwg file with DWG TrueView 2010 or 2011, a dialog box titled "References - Unresolved Reference Files" shows up blank, and halts the program so that it must be closed forcefully. This only happens at one computer, with all users tried. The same files open fine in DWG TrueView on other workstations, as well as in Autocad 2009 and 2011 on other workstations. I have tried uninstalling 2010 and 2011, then reinstalling with no luck. I have also updated .NET framework to 4.0, run virus scan, disabled Kaspersky, rebooted, etc. Everything I throw at it does nothing.
The error is specific to the file and the staion that you use: the referenced content is on a drive not accessible by that PC. Fix that location (make it accessible as defined inside the file) and the problem will go away. It's all about the file/folder pathing and what each of those files and drives are called, they all must match 100%.
So make sure all my drives are mapped correctly and I should be good. Thanks!
I have yet to resolve this issue. All drives are mapped correctly, and this error only surfaces on one machine. Short of reimaging the machine, I feel that I have tried everything. There are the occasional files that can be opened on the machine in question, and they are saved in the same version of Autocad as those that cannot. Our cad files are generated out of our own design software, and the ones that can be opened versus the ones that cannot, are created using the same version of our software, with the same characteristics. I'm at a loss.
Hi, i just encounter this same problem just now. I hope this may help your trouble.
Step 1. Open the file thats need to trouble shoot, until it will open "unresolved reference file". Then close the file.
Step 2. Reopen using Acad short cut or Acad exe.
Step 3. Drawing recovery will open if not Close all drawing windows then click file/ drawing recovery manager.
Step 4. open the file that was registered under the Drawing Recovery Manager/ Backup Files.
Step 5. the drawing file will open and the File References Showing the Reference Name with the status saying "not found or unreferenced"
Step 6. Rigth Click each file then Click "Detach"
Step 7. Save your file. then try to reopen.
I hope this works for you.. gud luck

Featured Cigar Lounge: La Casa De La Habana in Detroit
Filed under: Cigars
While many Detroit businesses are looking for the exits, La Casa del Habana decided it was time to enter the beleaguered city. The Michigan-based collection of tobacconists offers an upscale alternative to traditional lounge smoking with its private clubs. In Detroit, between the Opera House and Music Hall, you can enjoy a touch of luxury until 2 AM every day (except Sunday, when it closes at 9 PM) at a destination that features the city's largest walk-in humidor.
To access the second floor VIP lounge, the fee is $100 a month, and you are required to buy a box of cigars up front. But, you receive a private humidor that can accommodate up to 20 boxes of cigars, full use of the club facilities at any La Casa De La Habana location and two premium cigars every month. Members get the first shot at hard to find cigars when they become available and can enjoy special events not open to the public.
Detroit may need a bit of help, but it's great to know that it already has its own oasis.

NCPA Statement on Senate Vote to Repeal 1099 Tax Reporting Provision
Alexandria, Va. - Feb. 3, 2011
National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) Executive Vice President and CEO Kathleen Jaeger issued the following statement today on the U.S. Senate's passage of an amendment that repeals a provision of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) which expanded 1099 tax reporting requirements for businesses that purchase goods and services of more than $600. The amendment was offered as part of the FAA Air Transportation Modernization and Safety Improvement Act last night, which is expected to pass the Senate.
"Community pharmacists strive to provide the best patient care possible, but have to devote an inordinate amount of their time to administrative tasks. While the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act included some bipartisan provisions promoting patient access to pharmacy services, a major flaw is the 1099 tax reporting provision, which further shifts community pharmacists' responsibilities from the clinical to the clerical. We are part of the Small Business Coalition for Affordable Healthcare that has been vocal from the start in finding legislative solutions to this potential problem.
"We applaud the U.S. Senate for this bipartisan vote to repeal the 1099 provision, because full compliance with this requirement would prove daunting for independently owned pharmacy small businesses with limited staff and financial resources. Most importantly, our patients would suffer because the pharmacists would have less time to spend with them providing invaluable prescription drug services and counseling.
"We want to give special thanks to Senator Mike Johanns (R-Neb.) for his tremendous leadership throughout this process, and to Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), who offered the amendment. The House will hopefully soon schedule a vote on a similar bill introduced by Representative Dan Lungren (R-Calif.). In his State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama mentioned his willingness to address this concern, so we expect the repeal to be signed into law this year."
Before the vote, NCPA sent a letter in support of the repeal to Senate Majority and Minority Leaders Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).
The National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA®) represents the interests of America's community pharmacists, including the owners of more than 23,000 independent community pharmacies, pharmacy franchises, and chains. Together they represent a $93 billion health-care marketplace, have more than 315,000 employees including 62,400 pharmacists, and dispense over 41% of all retail prescriptions.

After dreams of our weight trainer Jordan falling off the paddle board
(oh wait, that happened) we awoke Wednesday morning to beautiful rays of
sunshine coming through our windows. We headed down to another
delectable breakfast, and then headed out for the next phase of
Christmas training.
I'm in the mid-distance/distance group with
Todd, so we started out on the TRX and med balls partnered with some
good old fashioned jump ropes and stadiums. Sprinters began the day
doing weights in the old school Rocky-style unairconditioned gym.
Todd stood with his sunglasses looking all fresh with a little smirk on
his face as he watched us from the highest point of the stadium.
we had another grueling swim practice and it was back to the hotel for
our two lunch (they are giving us the equivalent of two meals now for
lunch ... yum) meal overlooking the gorgeous beach.
getting some much-needed naps, we headed out to the beach for the next
survivor challenge. Purple and Red teams were over one hundred points
behind going into today, but with some help from some bonus points for
GPA and good performances in practice, they looked to challenge the Blue
and Green teams. The challenge was a water bucket challenge, where
teams had to line up and pass a bucket full of water from the ocean to
the big bucket at the end of the line; the team who filled the bucket at
the end of the line first won. Teams had to work together to figure out
speed but also coordination to keep from spilling the water. There
were three races passing the bucket while on our knees, in between our
legs, and lying on our backs. Red and purple teams wrecked shop as they
got first and second in two of the three bucket races!
We headed
back to the pool for the second practice of the day, still in awe of
the mountains and ocean we pass by on the way to the pool. Some of the
brush looks a little like Jurassic Park, but we haven't seen any T-Rex
yet. Some of us are convinced dinosaurs live on the island we can see
in the distance from our hotel … Sean has joked about us swimming to the
island on Saturday; maybe if we made the ten mile swim we could find
At the pool we got 'er done with an intense freestyle heart
rate set. Sometimes in sets like those you don't know if you're going to
make it, but when you overcome you are rewarded with a sense of
accomplishment that cannot be replaced. Our successes in the pool are
something no one can take away from us; we take those experiences and
let them make us the strong women we are who can conquer
anything-whether in the pool or out of it.
After practice we
played a quick game of "go," (Todd's version of "pigeon") where he says a
word that sounds like go and tries to trick you into jumping in the
pool, but when he actually says go you want to jump as quickly as you
can so you're not out. Junior Nicole Menzel won the game, earning 100
points for the Wakka Flakka Flames! The Flames (my team) made a flying
come back, and after finishing last place on Tuesday, they surged to
second place, with the green team still in first, blue in third, and
purple in fourth.
Sean also announced to the team today that our
team GPA for the semester was a 3.47, showing some solid work in the
classroom, too!
At the end of the day, we realize the team
competitions are all for fun and the training is all for the goals we

each other and then fill the water into a large bucket. Whoever filled
the bucket to the top first won. The red and purple team came out on
