disappointing results
I tried this product after my favorite colloidal silver was no longer available. I was very disappointed. Even using double the amount expected I saw no results what-so-ever. I researched and found yet a different brand instead. I would not buy this one again.

The NBA puts together one of the most entertaining all-star weekends in professional sports and we would expect this year to be no different. A reason for the NBA's All-Star Weekend success is that there is a little bit over everything out there for the fans of the game.
If you enjoy the pure shooing of the game, powerful dunks or slick ball-handling skills, All-Star weekend has just what you desire.
Next week, participants will be announced for the Dunk Contest, the Three Point Contest, the Skills Competition. One of the names expected to be announced is Portland Trail Blazers rookie point guard Damian Lillard.
Per Chris Haynes at CSNNW.com:
Portland Trail Blazers rookie standout Damian Lillard has been invited to participate in the NBA All-Star Weekend Skills Challenge during All-Star Weekend in Houston, CSNNW.com has learned.
According to a person close to the rookie point guard, the three-time Rookie of the Month has every intention of accepting the invitation.
Lillard, who is averaging 18.1 points, 3.1 rebounds and 6.5 assists through 45 games this season, is also going to participate in the NBA Rising Stars Challenge.
The rookie point guard has a real shot at taking home the Skills Challenge crown and it will be interesting to see if he can challenge Deron Williams' all-time record of 25.5 seconds that he set in 2008 as a member of the Utah Jazz.

I just quit Plurk. Not because I was not enjoying it, no. Hell, it's even the most fun and entertaining social networking tool I've seen in ages! (Although I have high hopes for Zivity. ;)) I met some interesting new avies - and even some of their humans - but somehow reality was catching up on me there. Let's call it RL drama, which is almost as scary as the typical everyday SL drama. Basically, if you don't feel free to write an honest 140 characters about what you feel at the moment, or interests you, or you'd wish for, you might as well not write at all? Else you'll end up just plurking 'Goodmorning plurkers' and 'goodnight plurkers' and I forbid myself to drop to that level of social networking. :d
As myself, I hate vague and dramatic 'I'll quit messages', I'll share - some - details on why I'm gone:
- I felt certain persons were taking everything I wrote - although nothing personal, see #2 - to personal. I choose my live to revolve around no one but me - egocentric, maybe? - at the moment. Myself is already more than I can handle! ;)
- If I were to plurk my real feelings on certain matters - shortly and tactfully summarized: Invasion alert, to close! Leave parts of my life just for me, please. - I'd be evoking a lot of real life drama. Maybe I am now also. But somehow needed to get this off my chest.
- Someone I succeeded at successfully ignoring for a few months suddenly showed up. What I'd say if I were to send 140 characters? You really don't want to know. I'm sure the person in question does not either. So we'll just shut up.
- I honestly felt the urge to plurk 'what the hell would we care, get a life!' sometimes, which must sound rather strange from someone who has a full time second. :d But I resisted doing just that, and I'm not proud for that one.
- Because of above items, I dropped to the level of plurking I lost my car keys and other various random utterly stupid stuff. As I don't want to lower myself to that level of social networking - I'm sorry, but time not well spend - I might as well say nothing.
So what about you? On twitter, your blog, facebook, plurk or whatever social networking gods recently invented, are you 'totally honest'? Are you one of those people that post little unimportant details, or do you write openly about things - in your 1st or 2nd life - that really matter to you? What do you care about more: your 'karma', popularity… or the content of what you write?
Anyway, dear Plurk, it was nice knowing you. Lovely to write various, 140 characters maxed anecdotes off my chest. Fun experimenting with how to use you for blog-promo, what to write to evoke the most replies, to discover how easily people offer friendship. Maybe I did not take you serious enough, but limiting my thoughts to 140 characters was surely an interesting exercise. I'll hop in from time to time to send a private plurk to people I do not have email for if I'm to lazy to log into SL. But that's about it. Our relationship ends here. Mainly, because others are overly complicated.
So far for SL ft. RL ft. Plurk drama. Beat that, SL fashionistas! ;)

19 Responses to "Midnight Confessions (CET) on resigning from Plurk"
That was a pretty interesting summation. It sometimes feels as though Web 2.0 is racing by and we'll all be left behind if we don't grab hold and ride it…but then, where are we riding it to? I lost my car keysland? OMG I love this song they're playing on the radioland?
Oh, and Kit Meredith wrote an interesting retirement message from pretty much all the social networking tools, even if it wasn't for such intriguing reasons: http://kitmeredith.blogspot.com/2008/07/throwing-in-web-20-towel.html
^^^\ Kate Amdahl /^^^
Vint, I am truly sorry to see you leave Plurk. In the brief few weeks that you were there, I really enjoyed your threads, which almost always were meaningful and profound. Except for the car keys incident, as you mention above. I felt I got to know you a bit better than before thru plurk.
You are right, the signal to noise ratio in Plurk, as in many Web2.0 services, is very poor. But I survive by quickly skimming through it all and I guess just having a good nose to sniff out the interesting stuff. I also do not see some threads, but I accept that because there are always more.
I ask you to reconsider your resignation, and try again. You might consider pruning your friends list to those that you value highly, or just ignoring a lot of it. If so, I hope I can stay on your list.
First, well, you know i respect any decision you take.
Second, about your question, i use in a different way Plurk than my blog, or even Twitter. I fell Plurk as a space to be in contact with some people i met originally in Twitter (even some in-world) and mainly i just use it for that. Twitter is more a mix, of what i feel or think in a determinate moment and some "hello, people". My blog is more personal, sometimes just for expressing an idea or talking about what i see and like in my Second Life, what is my life too.
Interesting post, Vint!
I'm not a plurker myself, even if I am there. (My unimportant Hellotxt.com posts to Jaiku and Pownce automatically goes to plur as well).
"Moreove, some really interesting questions there.
On twitter, your blog, facebook, plurk or whatever social networking gods recently invented, are you 'totally honest'? "
Of course I am. Trust me. ;)
It depends on how we define honesty, I think. In contexts where my SL face (it's just a face with data, I don't separate my SL person and my RL person) is used, little is known about my RL data. Not a secret, not just openly stated. And I most often refer to things going on in SL at places like my tlog, not personal things. Is that honesty? Or dishonesty? Or neither? Am I honest if I write my opinion (like now), but you don't have access to all data about me?
On my RL blog, yep, honest, rambling and pretty uncensored. Which is probably why I don't share the address to it in SL, even if it's not a secret.
"Are you one of those people that post little unimportant details, or do you write openly about things - in your 1st or 2nd life - that really matter to you?"
Yes and yes. On Twitter. I don't use plurk, nor really Jaiku or the others. But what I truly like with it are two things. Instant updating everywhere, including mobile. Big hit to me.
And second, how do you define Twitter or any microblog for yourself? Not for others, for yourself. You can't define it for others, and I like that.
Me, I refuse to define what, how and when I use Twitter, what to post and not, what to reply to and not. Who to follow or not. Follow, not friend, like that word even. So the answer to that question is 'yes', 'yes' and 'more'
"What do you care about more: your 'karma', popularity… or the content of what you write?"
Love the concept of Karma! It's the simplest, most stupid hoax to catch people using it, just like the old SL ratings, the popularity ratings or friend collecting on MySpace, the Who is Top Friend apps on Facebook, and so on.
Oh, and I like it as a commercial/social manipulation tool. On a personal, ethical level, I consider those tools as smelly as fermented herring.
Anyway, good luck with your future endeavour, wherever it will take you and through whatever channel it will come.
And remember, there is always the next, brightly shining thing just beyond the horizon, heading our way. =o)
I stopped using Twitter for about the same reason. I basically stopped using any and all social networking tools, except netlog for the RL me, since I have a lot of friends living on the other side of Flanders who I only see 2 or 3 times a month, and it's how we keep in contact usually (since we're all on MSN at different hours of the day).
Being honest - well. I don't mention every little detail obviously. But what I say in my blogs (I have several. SL one, RL one, and then I am a writer at a cooperative SL fashion blog and a RL religious blog) - is the brutal truth as it is in my opinion. I realise it's not making me the most popular with people. Lots of people get offended by me, but that's the price I'm willing to pay.
It's a fascinating area of social beheviour and I love meeting people that are willing to grab hold of these new social tools, shake what they can out of them, and be willing to drop them and move on, having learned a little more about themselves and communication in the process.
It intrigues me immensely that we are all ready to be so much more open with people online that we might be in RL. Not just about our lives but also our opinions. I spent a long time thinking this was about anonymity, the ability to walk away from someone you didn't like, far more easily than you can in RL, but blog posts like this one get me thinking again. I wonder if maybe this is how we all want to be, open and honest, but social conditioning tells us we don't do that in RL, and people who do that tend to be "frowned upon".
Maybe all we need is time for us to re-educate ourselves to this new set of social rules, so that we can be honest and open about ourselves and our opinions, and respect that in other people, and most of all not to take it personally when someone else's opinion clashes with something we feel strongly about. I think it will get easier with time, and if not for us then certainly for our kids and grandchildren. They'll grow up in a world where this is the main way people communicate, and they'll take all this stuff for granted.
Although I don't get to plurk as often as some, I will also miss you. It felt somehow more personal and for me allowed me to interact with some that I might not others feel comfortable talking to.
Many plurkers have blogs I've followed for a long time but rarely comment on because I don't have anything significant to contribute to their posts. However wtih plurk, because it was less formal and more spontaneous, I felt more at ease commenting.
Your decision does make sense though and I respect you for it. Of course I'll just have to starting commenting on your blog now ;)
Most importantly..did you find your keys??? :-)
For me, Plurk is a bit of fun, a place to be silly..where I can do the equivilent of pulling silly faces at Kitty Lalonde, or Willow Zander.
I have about 60 people who i have as friends, and i think that is enough, but there are about 20 who I would say am friendly with. Vint being one.
But where you have people , you have drama. *sigh*.
Sorry to see you go.
I do want to make clear to Miss Kate that I do not suffer from Web 2.0 allergy. Even more, I find the whole 'social networking thingie'
sometimes boring on average highly fascinating. :D
As for my plurktimeline to go to private & friends only, yes that might have been a solution, if pursued correctly from the start (and how could I know!) Although, that would have meant I had to reject and/or boot out some persons to/from the friendlist, which would have resulted in the same drama I'm trying to avoid. (And which I fear I did not succeed at avoiding, regardless.)
In the mean while, I have good news for you! (to make up for the case you should miss me over there) … Veyron, you better hold on to something! I wore one of my Calico Hair Styles you pressured me into buying! (and not that one great alternative style ;)) =D
Fraulein V … errr.. I mean, Miss V… lookie here. Don't I even look almost human? (with a slight rash on my arms! ;))
I've caught myself to sometimes blog about unimportant stuff, but it'll still be something that (to some level) interests me.
What I do blog about, comes right out of the mind of my heart, and I don't feel the need, or don't have the time sometimes, to speak out.
My opinions and views on the uni/metaverse only gradually find their way out, that's just me.
I never started to Plurk, but my Twitter is a bit… well it's like with my 1st blog : it's very close to getting into a vegetate state ;)
It's a nice socializer, but at work I always need to go onto my collegues computer fot internet (I'm on hers as I type this) and since that isn't always possible, I sorta don't feel the need to put a lot of elbowgrease into Twiiter anymore, or similar sites.
And once I get home, I prefer to go on SL instead of being on social networking sites.
So, I'll keep my Twitter account to let people know when I've uploaded a picture somewhere, or when I posted a new blog topic, but that's about it.
For actual socializing I still prefer to be on SL or use Skype and GoogleTalk.
Just my € 0,02
I tend to say more in other people's threads, unless i really have something to say.
I find lots of member of the SL community really interesting but don't socialise a lot in world (perhaps partly because I'm the other side of the world, perhaps because there are so many interesting things to see and do that I'm off elsewhere). For this reason, I use social networks in general to keep up with what is going on in world and in related spaces - which it's very useful for doing.
I'm not a big one for spilling my inner most life to the world but will answer questions and share commentary in context which might be why I say more in other people's threads. Mostly I just 'play' on plurk while keeping up with what's happening in the world of second life and beyond. On twitter I post the odd erratic comment. Flickr I post happy snaps, facebook I'm in because I wanted to join an SL related group but not under my RL me account.
I like plurk for it's friendliness and it's a nice friendly place to lurk if you want to find out what's going on in world.
Blah Blah.

Stroke Health Center
Roadblock in Treating Stroke Symptoms
March 23, 2006 -- New research shows why some people delay seeking treatment for stroke symptoms.
Those patients may size up their symptoms and wrongly decide their problem isn't urgent enough to get emergency care. That may be a dangerous mistake.
So says a study of 209 patients hospitalized for ischemic stroke, the most common type of stroke. In ischemic stroke, blood flow to the brain is blocked. Clot-busting drugs can help, but those drugs must be given within the first few hours after symptoms start.
The new study, published online in Stroke, shows that patients' attitudes about their symptoms -- and help from bystanders -- affected how quickly patients sought medical care.
Stroke is the No. 3 cause of death for American men and women, according to the CDC. Stroke is also a major cause of disability.
Stroke Survivors Interviewed
All of the patients were treated at the same public hospital in Israel. The researchers included Lori Mandelzweig, PhD, of Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer, Israel.
The patients were interviewed two to 10 days after being hospitalized for ischemic stroke. If their condition prevented interviews, patients' family members were interviewed.
The interviewers asked how much time passed from the start of stroke symptoms to first contact with medical personnel and hospital arrival. Other questions covered help from bystanders and whether patients called for ambulances when they noticed stroke symptoms.
Patients were about 61 years old, on average. Sixty-nine percent were men.
After noticing the start of symptoms, patients took anywhere from half an hour to nine hours to seek help and 1.3 hours to more than 14 hours to get to the hospital. The researchers considered hospital arrival to be late if it happened more than three hours after symptoms started.
Severe or Not?
Patients who thought their symptoms were severe were less than half as likely to delay seeking treatment, according to the study.
"Regarding the perception of severity of symptoms, we found that patients who perceived their symptoms to be severe were more likely to seek help quickly than those who perceived their symptoms as not severe," Mandelzweig tells WebMD in an email.
"I must point out, however, that the patient's perception of severity does not necessarily reflect the true clinical severity of the symptoms, but it is often what motivates him to [seek medical help]," she continues.
"It is also likely that a patient who perceives his symptoms as severe may be more inclined to contact an ambulance, which is clearly the preferred contact for quick transport of stroke patients to the hospital," Mandelzweig says.
Help From Bystanders
Patients were more than 80% less likely to delay seeking medical help if someone else noticed their symptoms and urged them to get help.

Feds' wellbeing at work lower than private sector
Thursday - 6/30/2011, 4:24pm EDT
By Jolie Lee
Federal News Radio
Federal employees have higher overall wellbeing than private sector employees - except when it comes to their work environment.
A Gallup poll found federal workers are less likely to have positive relationships with their supervisors, indicating government jobs have a "more traditional, subordinating work environment."
Gallup's index score for workplace wellbeing:
- Federal workers - 42.2
- State workers - 48.6
- Local workers - 47.8
- Non-government workers - 48.7
However, feds' overall well-being was 86.7 compared with non-government workers' score of 83.6. The overall score also took into consideration healthy behaviors and physical and emotional health.
"Government employees outperform non-government workers the most in the areas of overall life evaluation and access to basic needs such [as] having enough money to pay for healthcare and/or medicines, provide adequate shelter or housing, and buy food; and having health insurance and a personal doctor," Gallup said.
Gallup surveyed more than 180,000 people in 2010 for the poll.

The scrimmage was over, the festivities complete. So Shirley Barnes stood with the rest of the friends and family and patiently waited for her son to appear from the locker room late Friday like all the other North Carolina players were doing, one after another.
But Harrison Barnes never showed.
His mother grabbed freshman Kendall Marshall and asked what was up.
"[Marshall] said with a smirk, 'Oh, Harrison didn't think he shot well,'" Shirley Barnes told me this week. "So after they dismissed, he asked for a ball and headed to the practice gym to shoot."
Harrison Barnes was 6 of 10 from the field in that scrimmage, by the way. That means he made 60 percent of his shots and still felt like he needed a late-night shooting session, which should help explain why this 6-foot-8 freshman is a can't-miss prospect. Like I said when I named him the CBSSports.com Preseason National Player of the Year, Barnes has a work ethic to match his skill set. He tops CBSSports.com's list of the nation's top wings.
(Don't forget to read the explanation for these rankings in the blog.)
|1. Harrison Barnes (North Carolina)
|I got an email from a reader complaining about my naming Barnes the Preseason National POY. The guy said he agreed Barnes was a unique talent, but argued he'd only be good this season before being great in "Year 2." My response: "Year 2 will be played in the NBA."
|2. Kyle Singler (Duke)
|Singler is the ACC's official preseason Player of the Year, and I understand why. He averaged 17.7 points and 7 rebounds last season while leading the Blue Devils to the national title, and he just might do it all again this season. In other words, no complaint here. I went with Barnes because I think he's going to be terrific. But Singler is a perfectly reasonable -- and a heck of a lot safer -- pick.
|3. E'Twaun Moore (Purdue)
|Moore is consistently overlooked despite his consistently good statistics, as I detailed in a column this summer. I hate that he won't be able to play one more year with Robbie Hummel. But I love that he withdrew from the NBA Draft to play one more year in college, either way.
|4. William Buford (Ohio State)
|An inside-outside duo of Buford and Jared Sullinger gives Thad Matta two great weapons. I'm still concerned about who will handle most of the dribbling in Evan Turner's absence, but that doesn't make Buford -- who averaged 14.4 points and 5.6 rebounds last season -- any less talented.
|5. Austin Freeman (Georgetown)
|Austin Freeman was voted the Big East's Player of the Year this week, which says more about the Big East than Freeman. He's good (as his spot on this list shows), but the Big East is down if Freeman is the league's best player.
|6. Will Barton (Memphis)
|The expectations at Memphis increased greatly when the NCAA cleared Barton for freshman eligibility. He's not as popular in the city as Joe Jackson, mostly because Jackson is a local. But the guess here is that Barton will be the Tigers' best player and the eventual C-USA Player of the Year.
|7. Durrell Summers (Michigan State)
|Summers averaged 18.8 points per game in last season's NCAA tournament and was consistently great for one of the few times in his career. If he plays like that this season, this ranking is too low. If not, it's too high.
|8. Kris Joseph (Syracuse)
|Joseph proved last season that he could be a great role player behind Wesley Johnson. But now Johnson is gone, and Joseph must blossom into a star for the Orange to remain near the top of the Big East. I suspect he will (and that they will, too).
|9. Chandler Parsons (Florida)
|Parsons has grown to be a 6-foot-10 shooter, which makes him a legitimate NBA prospect. But for now he's the guy who averaged 12.4 points and 6.9 rebounds last season, the guy who could lead Florida to an SEC championship.
|10. Kim English (Missouri)
|That the Tigers will be in every preseason poll should allow English to get the stage he deserves. He averaged 14 points per game last season, and he should be even better this season, just like Missouri in general.

Background Checks: What Job Applicants and Employees Should Know
Some employers look into your background before deciding whether to hire you, or before deciding whether you can keep your job. When they do, you have legal rights. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) enforces a federal law that regulates background reports for employment, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) enforces federal laws against employment discrimination. This publication explains these laws, and how to contact the FTC and EEOC if you think an employer has broken the law. There might be other rules in your city or state, so it's a good idea to check with someone who knows the laws of your area.
Questions About Your Background
An employer may ask you for all sorts of background information, especially during the hiring process. For example, some employers may ask about your employment history, your education, your criminal record, your financial history, your medical history, or your use of online social media.
Unless the employer is asking for medical or genetic information, it's not illegal to ask you questions about your background, or to require a background check. (Employers aren't allowed to ask for medical information until they offer you a job, and they aren't allowed to ask for your genetic information – including family medical history – except in very limited circumstances.)
However, when an employer asks about your background, it must treat you the same as anyone else, regardless of your race, national origin, color, sex, religion, disability, genetic information (including family medical history), or older age (40 or older). For example, an employer is not allowed to ask for extra background information because you are of a certain race or ethnicity.
If an employer treats you differently because of your race, national origin, color, sex, religion, disability, genetic information (including family medical history), or older age, or asks you inappropriate questions about your medical status, medical history, or family medical history, contact the EEOC (see below).
Background Reports
Some employers also will try to find out about your background by hiring someone to do a "background report" on you. Two of the most common are credit reports and criminal background reports.
Special rules apply when an employer gets a background report about you from a company in the business of compiling background information. First, the employer must ask for your written permission before getting the report. You don't have to give your permission, but if you're applying for a job and you don't give your permission, the employer may reject your application.
If an employer gets a background report on you without your permission, contact the FTC (see below).
Second, if the employer thinks it might not hire or retain you because of something in the report, it must give you a copy of the report and a "notice of rights" that tells you how to contact the company that made the report. This is because background reports sometimes say things about people that aren't accurate, and could even cost them jobs. If you see a mistake in your background report, ask the background reporting company to fix it, and to send a copy of the corrected report to the employer. You also should tell the employer about the mistake.
You can get your credit report and fix any mistakes before an employer sees it. To get your free credit report, visit www.annualcreditreport.com or call 1-877-322-8228. You don't have to buy anything, or pay to fix mistakes.
If the Employer Finds Something Negative in Your Background
If there is something negative in your background, be prepared to explain it and why it shouldn't affect your ability to do the job.
Also, if the problem was caused by a medical condition, you can ask for a chance to show that you still can do the job.
Sometimes it's legal for an employer not to hire you or to fire you because of information in your background, and sometimes it is illegal. An example of when it is illegal is when the employer has different background requirements depending on your race, national origin, color, sex, religion, disability, genetic information (including family medical history), or older age (40 or older). For example, it would be illegal to reject applicants of one ethnicity with criminal records for a job, but not reject other applicants with the same criminal records. This is true whether or not the information was in a background report.
Even if the employer treated you the same as everyone else, using background information still can be illegal discrimination. For example, employers shouldn't use a policy or practice that excludes people with certain criminal records if the policy or practice significantly disadvantages individuals of a particular race, national origin, or another protected characteristic, and doesn't accurately predict who will be a responsible, reliable, or safe employee. In legal terms, the policy or practice has a "disparate impact" and is not "job related and consistent with business necessity." (It doesn't matter whether or not the information was in a background report.)
If you think an employer discriminated against you based on background information, contact the EEOC for further information (see below).
Where to Go For Help
If you think that a background check was discriminatory, you may contact the EEOC by visiting its website at www.eeoc.gov, or by calling 800-669-4000 (voice) or 800-669-6820 (TTY). The EEOC is responsible for enforcing federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee because of the person's race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, age (40 or older), disability, or genetic information. The EEOC investigates, conciliates, and mediates charges of employment discrimination, and also files lawsuits in the public interest. For specific information on—

- How to Read a Study Record
The objective of the PAS-01 study is to assess the safety of the intraocular as measured by the cumulative incidence of patients who within 5 years after implantation experience persistent vision-impairing corneal edema (corneal edema leading to persistent loss of best corrected distance visual acuity >2 lines from pre-surgery baseline level).
The study will test the null hypothesis that the percentage of patients who experience persistent vision-impairing corneal edema is >17% against the alternative that the percentage is <17%. The null hypothesis will be rejected if the upper bound of the two-sided 95% confidence integral for the observed percentage is <17%.

Hands on with the Sony PlayStation Vita
Cheers for the more accurate sales info AC
I'd probably say the DS has more to worry about than the PSP, as the DS caters to a more casual market and thus the game types are more similar. I'd still be very reluctant to call it the death of the handheld games console though.
It's like the difference between a dog nibbling your hand and walking away with your wedding tackle between its jaws.
Xperia Play
Been tempted to get one myself because, as you point out, it has a dedicated gaming control system that allows full view of the screen.
If we wanted to make what I would class as a fair comparison of gaming systems, I'd go for things like PSP vs DS vs Xperia Play vs Nokia N-Gage because they are all dedicated gaming systems.
Claiming a PSP with God of War and an LG Optimus with Angry Birds are equivalent devices is not on.
As I ranted in another comments section on, would people please shut the hell up about smartphone gaming being the death of the DS & PSP?
I'll reiterate what I said previously - the DS & PSP are dedicated handheld gaming systems, with very different pricing structures to mobile phones. When Angry Birds costs £34.99 at launch, then you can "start" to make comparisons.
There's also a question of volumes as well. The PSP sold 185,000 units at launch and the Nintendo DS 87,000 units. Let's extrapolate a little and say both have sold 1 million units ish by now. As of 2008, there were 75.7 *MILLION* mobile phones in use in the UK, a figure which I suspect is closer to 90 or 100 million by now.
How in the name of fuck can you say that's a fair comparison? If each mobile phone user bought just 1 game, the market share of Nintendo and Sony, two of the biggest games console manufacturers on the planet, instantly gets reduced to 1%.
TL;DR - When mobile phone games cost the same price, are of the same quality and are of the same prevalance as PSP or DS games, then you can harp on about mobile phones causing the death of the platforms.
Until then, kindly shut the fuck up.

Smartphones rocket past consoles for mobile game sales
I disagree
The quality of Android gaming is dire, to say the least, as indicated by a distinct lack of Android game reviews on here.
Of course there are going to be more mobile phone game sales than PSP/DS game sales, ***because there are more mobile phones than PSP/DSes***. You cannot expect to qualify statements like "Sony's PlayStation Portable has lost out too" & "a decline of 36 per cent" *when smartphones and PSP/DS are two gaming systems*.
Basically, PSP & DS compete for market share because they are both standalone game systems, with similarly priced games. If you compare 1 million PSPs vs 1 million DSes vs 100 million smartphones, which one do you *think* is going to have the greater market share in games?
Agreed. Every time I read an article along these lines I die a little inside.
Can I get Super Mario World on an iPhone?
Can I get Final Fantasy Crisis Core on an Android?
No? Then shut the fuck up with the "death of the PSP and DS" angle which most articles like go for.

World of Warcraft subscriptions slip
I was a long time WoW player to the point where it almost consumed my life and I remember frothing at the mouth when the first ex-pac was to be released.
Burning Crusade came and went and the jade started to set in. I was never in a hardcore raiding guild so a lot of the top end stuff I never got to play, no matter how much time and effort I sunk in.
Then Wrath of The Lich King arrived. A few small scale features that didn't really add much apart from the new class, which involved revisiting content I'd already gone through a dozen times before, with dungeon runs consisting of 5 death knight teams. -.-
That was the point when I quit. Cataclysm was released and for a little while I was tempted to go back and see the new changes. Then I remembered that the good memories I have of WoW (and there are more than a few) were all from the old content - the endless Scholomance runs, dying in Zul'Gurub, the fishing contest and exploring with guildmates.
All those are gone forever.
I don't know if there's anything that would make me go back to WoW but what I do know is that it'll take more than a panda and a new class.

Duke Nukem Forever dev slams unfair reviews
I think Gearbox can make a very good Duke game. Borderlands was very successful and pretty solid - it's worth remembering that they were essentially building 4 games with several different engines into something workable.
Is DNF a good game? From what I played of it, no. Is there still the potential for a good game with the current dev team? I think so.
Price-slashing fails to ignite PlayBook sales
Why is this such as surprise to them?
Remember back in the 90s when there was a huge fight going on between Palm and HP for control of the PDA market? The reason why Palm lost was because HP were making big advances in wireless technology and in particular the integration of telephony systems into PDAs. As the smartphone market grew exponentially, the PDA market dwindled for the simple reason that people didn't want to carry around multiple devices to do one task - namely internet browsing.
After all, why shell out for £300 fondleslab *and* a £300 phone to browse the internet when the £300 phone can do it by itself or a £450 intergrated slab can do it by itself.

Apple gets patent for 'unlock gesture'
Right, that does it.
I'm going to patent a revolutionary idea - I call it a "personal power management cycling system", with multi function capability:
A single activation of the PPMCS causes electricity to be diverted from the battery of the device to the main operational areas, such as the CPU and screen.
A second activation causes a temporary interrupt to the electricity diversion system for all non-critical device functions, such as the screen.
A long activation of the PPMCS causes a gradual cessation of the electricity diversion function, allowing all active device functions to cease operation in a controlled manner.
Someone get me Apple or Google on the blower and we'll talk.

Apple iPhone 4S
Take the article regarding the "10 Androids to outshine the iPhone 4S" . A large proportion of those are the the generic thin, big screen, little frills slab design *that is identical to every other smartphone design out there*. Do not get me wrong, quality *IS* important but there comes a point when one high quality slab design is much the same as another high quality slab design.
The very best scores should only be given to phones that *try something truly different* and are of high quality, rather than just a standard design of high quality.
And that
Is why smartphone design has stagnated over the past 2 or 3 years. There is almost no innovation left in smartphone design now - the Experia Play experiments with PSP technology and the Motorola Atrix at least flirts with the idea of powering a laptop.
But the rest? Flatscreen, a couple of buttons, call me when a new processor comes out. I'd like to see El Reg reign in its scores for new smartphones and only award 85-90% for phones that genuinely have innovative features and ideas. Regurgitating an existing design (please, slobbering fanbois, this applies to HTC's efforts as well as Apple's), no matter how fast the processor is or how well it's made, should net 75% tops.

were possessed, rather than the agents themselves. The law authorizes the government to apply for a warrant to seize any biological agent, toxin, or delivery system that has no apparent justification for peaceful purposes, but prosecution under the law would require the government to prove that an individual did not have peaceful intentions (Atlas 1999).(BSAT 33)" Critically, the BWATA reified the tenets of the BWC by establishing the first explicit criminal punishments for the development, manufacture, transfer, or possession of a biological agent, toxin, or delivery system for use as a weapon. The BWC and its implementation in the form of the BWATA form the groundwork of the Select Agent Regulations.
The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 (Public Law 104-132, April 24, 1996) provides the first instance of list-based attempts at the regulation of biological agents. "The Act required the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to issue regulations to govern the transport of biological agents with the potential to pose a severe threat to public health and safety through their use in bioterrorism. In establishing the list of materials to regulate, the Secretary was to consider: '(I) the effect on human health of exposure to the agent; (II) the degree of contagiousness of the agent and the methods by which the agent is transferred to humans; (III) the availability and effectiveness of immunizations to prevent and treatments for any illness resulting from infection by the agent; and (IV) any other criteria that the Secretary considers appropriate' (Public Law 104-132, April 24, 1996, Sec. 511). The Secretary delegated the authority to regulate these "select agents" to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). To ensure that the transfer of these agents was carried out only by and between responsible parties, the CDC required that laboratories transferring select agents be registered and report each transfer"2 (NRC 2009b).
Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law Pub. L. 107-56) expands on the BWATA, making "it an offense for a person to
"The purpose of registration was to control domestic transfers based upon a permitting system. A registered laboratory could legally transfer select agents only to another registered laboratory; some transfers were denied because of concerns about the adequacy of the facility proposed to receive the agent. Transfers to nonregistered laboratories were prohibited. Registration, however, was principally a matter of notification: A laboratory was obligated to notify relevant authorities of a transfer to another registered facility and that the transfer itself complied with applicable safety standards. Specific information about particular pathogens that the facility possessed did not have to be reported, not even if they were the subjects of extensive research, so long as they were not transferred. This was not intended to be a strict licensing system but merely a way of overseeing transfers and shipments of lethal pathogens" (NRC 2004).

Clangers Alert!
After watching these episodes you may experience spontaneous bursts of imitation Clanger whistling. Do not panic - these symptoms are completely harmless but may cause slight irritation to family and friends!
—DVD warning labelBritish Stop Motion animated children's show about knitted creatures living on a small hollow planet with dustbin lids covering the craters. The Clangers vaguely resemble mice or pink anteaters, speak in high-pitched whistling noises, and eat soup provided by the friendly Soup Dragon. The name "Clanger" comes from the sound made by the dustbin lids.A small extract from an episode of this appears in the Doctor Who serial "The Sea Devils".One of several series produced by Smallfilms, comprising Oliver Postgate (writer/animator/narrator) and Peter Firmin (character and set design). Another was Bagpuss.
