Earlier this month, it was reported that WWE was going to be in attendance for the comedy show that Mick Foley was doing in Brooklyn. There were even talks that the event was going to be filmed and aired on the WWE Network. However, the company did not show up. Foley came out and apologized to the fans. The former world heavyweight champion stated that there was a misunderstanding of some sort.
November 27, 2014
It looks like the relationship between Mick Foley and WWE has greatly improved. The former world heavyweight champion eagerly announced to his fans that he will be doing a special one man comedy show in Brooklyn for the WWE Network later on this month. The two sides have long discussed the possibility of doing such a deal, but the company never pulled the trigger. The belief was that there were those within who were upset with comments that Foley had been making about WWE.

Fox wanted Mick Foley to portray Santa Clause in an upcoming episode of their hit series New Girls, but the Hardcore Legend had to turn it down. Upon reading the script, he found out that the producers wanted him to throw out some sexual innuendos while in costume. Foley, who happens to be a gigantic fan of Santa Clause, stated that he rejected the role because he has too much respect for the character.

With the amount of punishment that his body went through during his long professional wrestling career, Mick Foley understandably prefers that his children not follow his footsteps. However, that is exactly what is happening. Noelle Foley is reportedly training to become an in ring performer. The 20 year old is said to be training somewhere in the Long Island area.

A new sitcom called Wrestling With Joeylicious, and as the name suggests, it is centered around the world of professional wrestling. The lead character clings on to his dreams by working at low level independent wrestling shows. Producers have managed to sign Roddy Piper, Mick Foley, Tito Santana and Jimmy Snuka to make an appearance on the show. They will each be portraying themselves.

All those years of taking vicious bumps in a wrestling ring have taken a toll on Mick Foley. The WWE legend revealed that he is going in for back surgery this month. Foley states that it is a minor procedure, but he hopes that it will produce major improvements. The former world heavyweight champion said that the pain in his back for the last two weeks have been beyond excruciating.
September 4, 2014
Considering the amount of pain that he withstood for the sake of entertaining fans over the years, it is a bit surprising that Mick Foley did not spend more time on the sidelines. He has retired from WWE now, but an injury is preventing him from working. Back issues have prompted the former world heavyweight champion to cancel an upcoming appearance in Denver. No word yet on whether or not it will be rescheduled.
August 27, 2014
While he may not be on great terms with WWE officials, Mick Foley apparently is still on very good terms with a lot of the performers. A handful of them, including Road Dogg, took the time and made the effort to go watch his comedy show in Ventura. The venue is approximately 90 minutes away from the Staples Center, where Summerslam 2014 will be held.
August 16, 2014
Some wrestling fans take it too far. Someone recently posted that they wanted to get a tattoo of a blood Mick Foley on their body. The WWE legend himself tried to put a stop to that. Foley advised the person that it would not be a smart move because it is something permanent. It would be something that the person would have to explain to a future spouse.

"Dolph Ziggler has got to be one of the toughest men to put on a pair of boots, but he's going to be like Mick Foley in another five years because that kid beats his body up more than anybody on the crew. I do know this, in my dealings with him, when I'm his producer, he gives everything he's got. He does some really phenomenal and athletic stuff." - Arn Anderson thinks WWE should push Ziggler
July 20, 2014
For whatever reasons, Mick Foley took to social media this week to defend Batista, stating that it was unfair for fans to have this much hate towards him and his WWE return. Foley mentioned that Batista was at the wrong place at the wrong time because fans were so desperate to see Daniel Bryan being given a proper push. He also feels that not enough people are happy for Batista being featured in a big movie this summer.
July 14, 2014
Showing that some friendships extend beyond the business, Undertaker and his wife Michelle McCool recently attended a comedy show featuring Mick Foley. The longtime WWE couple wanted to show support for their old friend. The two of them even went backstage to catch up with Foley for a bit. Several wrestlers in the industry, including CM Punk recently, have made the effort to go watch Foley tell jokes.
July 14, 2014
Another source of discontent for WWE performers lately is the amount of the royalty checks that are being handed out. Wrestlers who used to receive $70,000 quarterly checks for the video game are now reportedly receiving closer to $10,000. There has been some proof of that, as Mick Foley was quite vocal towards WWE about the decrease in royalties earlier in the year. A lot of the top level performers received approximately $1,500 on their second quarterly royalty check, which surprised a lot of people backstage.
July 10, 2014
During a recent interview, Mick Foley was asked about the possible return of CM Punk to WWE, and the hardcore legend revealed something a bit interesting. Foley stated that he has attempted to contact Punk, but Punk has ignored all communications with Foley. The brutally honest Foley also mentioned that he believes that Punk is ignoring the majority of people in the industry right now.
June 28, 2014
"Yes, I like Hulk Hogan - and here's why. With each passing year, I think I gain a better perspective on what's really important in life. There was a time - a period of many years - where Hulk's name would bring up some negative feelings for me. He was the guy who made far more than I did with a style that was the antithesis of mine. But for the past several years, whenever I see Hulk Hogan, all I can think of are the words Shane Douglas shared with me about Hulk Hogan and the kindness and warmth with which he showered the kids facing life-threatening challenges, who seemed to find strength and inspiration in Hulk's larger than life physique and personality. I'll never forget those words Shane told me, 'Those kids would just be beaming.' Those words are all I think of when I see Hogan, People can take issue with his wrestling style...as they often do with mine. But, when it's all said and done, Hulk Hogan used that oversized personality, and really big heart to ease so much suffering that he saw around him.. In the bigger picture, does anything else really matter?" - Mick Foley shares his feelings on Hulk Hogan
June 27, 2014
Those that have been following Mick Foley closely over the last year are aware that there is some sort of backstage heat between he and Vince McMahon. WWE has given him the cold shoulders on a couple of occasions. Foley has now revealed a possible source of that friction. He accidentally sent a message to McMahon while trying to send to Brie Bella and Daniel Bryan. The content of that message was Foley complaining about WWE not doing the right thing and putting Bryan over when his popularity was at its peak.
June 27, 2014
Through his personal blog on Facebook, Mick Foley revealed that he was supporting Dolph Ziggler. The WWE legend also revealed why he was rooting for the former world heavyweight champion. He stated that fans were behind Ziggler during his push because they knew that he had worked hard to get to the top. Foley wants WWE to get fans to believe that hard work pays off by pushing Ziggler again.
June 24, 2014
"I wasn't sold on him. I wasn't sold on the idea that they kept comparing him to Bruiser Brody, because Brody for the longtime wrestling fan was one of the great wrestlers of his era or of all time. But he was known as the intelligent monster and Harper was an out of control maniac. I think once you stop trying to imitate somebody and find your own way things really start clicking. So, I've been watching him and things have really been clicking and after the Wyatts have this amazing run, hopefully as long as possible, yeah, I do think he has what it takes to become a singles star." - Mick Foley shares his views on Luke Harper and his potential to become a star in WWE
June 15, 2014
"If Luke Harper were a stock, I'd be buying him now. I've watched carefully for a while, and in the past two months, I've finally become sold on the big man, not only as an invaluable part of the bizarre The Wyatt Family, but as a potential breakout star on his own. Finding your way, and blazing your own unique path is no easy task in WWE, especially when standing in the very long shadow of Bray Wyatt. But Harper has found that way. I wasn't ready to buy into the Bruiser Brody comparison, no matter how many times it was brought up. Brody, a legend in the business, and a huge inspiration on my own career, was known as "the intelligent monster." Harper has excelled in my mind, by stepping off that path that Brody blazed, and finding his own, unique way to excel in WWE - as the guy who can do anything at any time, without any seeming rhyme or reason. The hurricanrana followed by a dropkick makes perfect sense, because it makes absolutely no sense. Here's one wrestling fan looking forward to Luke Harper's matches making little sense, but a huge impact on WWE Monday Night Raw for a long time to come." - Mick Foley praises Luke Harper
June 11, 2014
A status update on Twitter from Mick Foley, where he stated that TNA wished him a happy birthday while WWE has yet do so. While the former world heavyweight champion is more than likely just playing around, there appears to be some truth in jest, as rumors have been floating around that there is backstage heat between Foley and some members of management in WWE.

"The purpose of my post. I'm not to suggest that Dolph Ziggler join Global Force Wrestling, just using him as an example of how subjective WWE decisions can be. I do agree that Dolph Ziggler is a terrible ring name. A couple of years ago, I sent a very detailed e-mail to the powers that be with a suggestion of how he could get out of the name and simultaneously garner some mainstream media attention, but never heard back from those in charge." - Mick Foley explaining his post about Dolph Ziggler on Twitter
May 23, 2014
With WWE stock taking a major tumble recently, Mick Foley had an interesting theory as to the reason why. The former world heavyweight champion pointed the finger at Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, stating that some people might not be able to differentiate their on screen characters with their real life personas. Foley feels that HHH and Stephanie do such a good job at portraying heels.
May 20, 2014
In the next few days, Mick Foley is going to have a huge announcement for professional wrestling fans. The former WWE star stated that it will be a decision that not all fans agree with. That has led to rumors of him joining Jeff Jarrett in the new Global Force Wrestling to spring up. However, there are those backstage that believe that the announcement might not even have anything to do with wrestling.
May 19, 2014
In June, TNA is planning on doing a pay per view that will focus on the run that Mick Foley had with the company. That has led to some rumors that the two sides could possibly be looking into a potential return of the former world heavyweight champion. Foley recently rejected a contract to stay with WWE, and he has been looking for a new home in professional wrestling.
May 2, 2014
In responding to fans online, Mick Foley admitted that he is losing out on some money by not signing a new contract with WWE. He is rejecting the company because of principals, as he feels that talent was not paid appropriately for the last two video games that were released. Foley also admitted that his relationship with WWE is strained even further because of his decision.
April 24, 2014
Through Facebook, Mick Foley revealed to fans the reason why he is not signing a new contract with WWE. He feels that the company has not been paying out a fair amount of royalties for the previous two video games. In fact, Foley states that it is probably just a fourth of what the WWE stars should be receiving. Thus, he has decided to move on.
April 23, 2014
"Honestly, I'm probably not going to sign my Legends deal with WWE because I don't think they did the right thing by the guys with the video game. The check was a little low. Last year, there was a bankruptcy, but this year there wasn't. So, I don't see the upside to signing the Legends deal when the carrot isn't there dangling. So, I'm not going to sign my Legends deal." - Mick Foley reveals why he is not signing a new contract with WWE

April 18, 2014
In an effort to show new fans that the company is capable of drawing in the big name performers in the industry, TNA has added alumni profiles to their roster page on their official website. Some notable names on there are Jeff Jarrett, Sting, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Sean Waltman, Mick Foley, Hulk Hogan, AJ Styles, Brooke Hogan, Ric Flair and Rob Van Dam.
April 18, 2014
"He was an intense guy, and he was a perfectionist. His career was based on looking as good as possible. That meant eating as good as possible, training as hard as possible, avoiding anything that a normal human being might reach out to in their everyday culinary affairs." - Mick Foley on the diet that Ultimate Warrior had
April 17, 2014
Since he is rumored to be in the process of looking for a new home in professional wrestling, rumors have it that Mick Foley could possibly end up joining Jeff Jarrett in his new wrestling promotion, Global Force Wrestling. The two of them are scheduled to be on a show together in Pennsylvania next month, and a meeting is expected to take place between the two former world champions.
April 12, 2014
There are rumors floating around right now that Mick Foley is looking into the possibility of signing a contract with Ring of Honor. The hardcore legend is apparently a free agent now that his contract with WWE has expired. Foley was also recently spotted at a comedy show wearing a ROH tee shirt. No word yet on whether or not the company has interest in signing him.
April 12, 2014
"When I first heard the news of the Ultimate Warrior's passing - from my oldest son - my first thoughts were of his precious daughters, and how their father - whose love for them was clear - had been taken away from them far to early in their lives. My second thought was about the foolish tweet I sent out during Warrior's Hall of Fame induction speech - and how badly I wish I could have taken those words back. Maybe they seemed harmless at the time, but in retrospect, the fact that my final words about Warrior were negative ones has had me feeling pretty bad these last 24 hours. I did not dislike Warrior. I got along fine with him in 1996, and years later, during a 'Legends Rountable' focusing on 'Heatseekers', I was good-naturedly kidded by my fellow Roundtable guests for having nothing negative to say about Warrior, Paul Heyman or Buff Bagwell." - Mick Foley talks about his relationship with Ultimate Warrior
April 10, 2014
Despite being thrown into the kickoff match at Wrestlemania 30, Antonio Cesaro is the choice for Mick Foley when it comes to being the guy that will be given the big spotlight on the next episode of Monday Night Raw. Generally, WWE considers this episode to be the start of the new season, so they try to elevate someone up the ladder that evening.
April 6, 2014
While fans were expecting either Kane, Undertaker or even Mick Foley to be chosen as the person to induct Paul Bearer into the hall of fame at Wrestlemania 30 weekend, it now appears that WWE is going in a different direction and allowing the sons of the legendary manager to give the speech on Saturday night instead.
April 3, 2014
Since she is pregnant and will have a hard time traveling once the baby is born, Mickie James is loading up on appearances right now. The former WWE diva still has enough name value for independent wrestling promoters to book her in autograph sessions. She was recently at an event with Mick Foley, Kevin Nash, Tommy Dreamer and the Godfather.
March 26, 2014
Despite having a pretty memorable on screen history with Paul Bearer, Mick Foley is not high on the list of candidates to induct the legendary manager into the hall of fame during Wrestlemania 30. WWE does not have any official plans for Foley whatsoever at the event. He will still be in New Orleans that weekend on his own accord, though.
March 15, 2014
Following a slew of other wrestlers making appearances at these events, Mick Foley will be appearing at Comic Con this weekend in Kentucky. The legendary WWE star will be doing a discussion panel, where he talks about the 20 year anniversary of having his ears ripped out by Vader during a match in Europe.
March 14, 2014
Over the last few weeks, Mick Foley has drawn some heat from WWE fans because he has been critical of the product that Vince McMahon and Triple H are producing, especially in regards to how they are utilizing Daniel Bryan. Foley will probably draw some further ire with this Twitter post, where he praises Impact Wrestling.
March 8, 2014
The latest wrestler to jump on the stand up comedy bandwagon is Diamond Dallas Page. He is currently doing shows throughout Europe. DDP joins guys like Mick Foley, Jim Ross, Dolph Ziggler and William Regal in making the jump from the wrestling ring to the stage. He is still hoping to induct Jake Roberts into the hall of fame at Wrestlemania 30.
March 5, 2014
Since the company wants to protect the Undertaker character, the belief right now within WWE is that the top candidate to induct Paul Bearer into the hall of fame at Wrestlemania 30 is Kane. With the way Mick Foley has been bashing the product over the last couple of months, it appears that there are a few people in management who are voting against him doing the induction speech.
March 4, 2014
WWE has uploaded the quick hall of fame induction video for Paul Bearer that was shown on Monday Night Raw. It features stars like Daniel Bryan and Kofi Kingston doing quick interviews. It also features the legendary manager with Undertaker, Kane, Mick Foley and Vader.
March 4, 2014
Since he has grown to become quite vocal and outspoken towards the company, many fans are wondering if the relationship between Vince McMahon and Mick Foley has soured backstage. According to Foley, he is still doing business with WWE. He recently made an appearance at NHL game and is scheduled to do an NBA game for the company soon.
March 3, 2014
During a recent interview, Jim Ross revealed that Vince McMahon only allowed him to sign Mick Foley in order to teach Ross a lesson about signing the wrong guys. McMahon did not feel that Foley was a star and believed that the move would fail so bad that Ross would be put in his place. Foley, however, became a hall of fame performer for WWE instead.
March 2, 2014
Even though he has been highly critical of WWE as of late, fans are not turning on Mick Foley as some predicted that they would. Instead, they're flocking to the hardcore legend. Through this Twitter post, he revealed that he has now reached a million followers, and he expressed his gratitude towards every single fan that is still on his side.
February 25, 2014
Those who watched Elimination Chamber 2014 and Monday Night Raw this week, witnessed the WWE audience turning on Batista because they do not approve of his push and his attitude towards the fans since returning.

February 24, 2014
Through this Twitter post, Mick Foley revealed that he was invited by WWE to show up on the Monday Night Raw panel, which featured Ric Flair and Booker T, tonight.

February 24, 2014
Like many of us wrestling fans, Mick Foley was hoping for an amazing episode of Monday Night Raw this week because the company needed to promote the new WWE Network and kick start the build for Wrestlemania 30. In this Twitter post, he expressed his disappointment and admitted that he was wrong for having faith in WWE.
February 24, 2014
A lot of fans were disappointed with how things ended at Elimination Chamber 2014.

Tanner encourages patients and visitors to help us to improve patient safety. If you have any suggestions to improve patient safety, please contact Cynthia Masters, RN, risk/legal officer, Tanner Health System, at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Patients are encouraged to report patient safety or quality of care concerns to the Risk Management/Patient Safety or Performance Improvement Department.
If the concerns in question cannot be resolved at this level, patients may contact the Joint Commission:
Mailing Address:
Office of Quality Monitoring
Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations

Oakbrook Terrace, IL 60181
Report a complaint
Patient safety is every patient's right, everyone's responsibility. When we speak of patient safety being everyone's responsibility, that not only means every leader, physician and staff member, but it also includes the patient.
As the patient safety movement gains momentum, it is clear that patients and families must be adequately integrated into the systems we are striving to change. Not only are patients and families capable of actively participating in their own care, but this participation is a critical factor in helping to improve quality of care and safety.
Going forward, Tanner Health System's processes will continue to not only encourage patients to be an active partner in their care to ensure safety, but also incorporate their thoughts and ideas when identifying potential system vulnerabilities and designing solutions to them. In accordance with the National Patient Safety Foundation (NPSF), we envision that patients will eventually be empowered to say, "Nothing about me, without me."

Whats your Name at Xfire Aliena? I want to see some Streams
You can find a guide to the normal version of this encounter here!

Sorry if this has been answered or explained somewhere else.... But Aliena....why do you ALWAYS have an open ticket while recording your movies!? I must know.
What debuff does the ooze Putricide throws do?
You said something along the lines of "If you do not move out of it, you'll get a nasty debuff"
Our guild got him last night in 2 attempts.. We used 2 healers 2 tanks and 6 dps, and were close on the enrage timer. However 3 of our dps being melee got hit with goo at least once each, we also had a death to pungent blight as the goo prevented one player from collecting the spore.
Doesn't it make more sense to have the ranged as far away from Prof as possible? That is what we did for our kill last night. It gave the ranged more time to react to the malleable goo. So when you enter the room we had ranged go left and spread out from there.
Well today is Dec 1st 2010, the new patch just came out and I am not happy. I know everything is supposed to be balanced for 85. But I also came late into the game as did some of my friends. So we are still working on HM. In the past few weeks we have gone into Fester and somewhat a difficult time downing him but none the less we were still able to do it.
We tried last night, and it was like both our tanks were getting hit with a train followed by a mack truck. Healers who in the past could do it now can not. We even decided to 2 heal on the tanks and was having no luck. Now mind you these guys are not lame healers, skilled and know their classes quite well.
DK tank has 25% Dodge, 73k HP, and about 26k Armor. Which is me, I was constantly watching my health and the whole time no matter how hard we tried I was constantly near 10-15%. Yes sometimes my health would jump up from a large heal but it would just fall back down again.
Has anyone had the same problem as well with this fight? (Tanks getting hit with mack trucks)
you guys just need to learn your classes again a bit, and maybe reforge some gear. it's not the end of the road man.
READ THIS: Posting & Chat Rules
Well considering we just 9 manned this fight last week, 1 person had to log. Same people, same set up. We shouldn't have had no problem. I honestly think it was a fluke and we had bad luck that Fester was just OP for some reason.
My guys are skilled, and we all have worked very well together. All the other fights we did before that and after we had no problems with.
frustrated i am...maybe im really not that good ...im pretty sure i can handle heroic but some ppl actually most ppl on my real say heroic icc is way different than normal and by watching the videos...it seems just the same but more health and the professor throws balls down...you knowthis whole time i thought i was wrong and maybe they're right its too hard or way different but it is as easy as i think some ppl are just lazy...too lazy to explain or too impatient to wait for ppl to watch a video...icc is easy enough as it is...but these ppl that im tlaking about really take the fun out of the game for me.
i usually tank ..becasue theree arent many tanks on my realm ...to lpug anyway...but i do dps too....on my realm and compared to those i see i do pretty good but compared to these tankspot guys and stuff im sure im not good or great my dps would be low....i did about 10k plus on the BLood Queen that was my best...well it's 8:25 am Tuesday Cataclysm day....i guess im going to go buy it...use the dungeon finder to lvl to 85....probably get alot of bad groups because ppl just wanting to experience the new content....Maybe i am just a bad tank idk..but i dont lose aggro ..i do icc i just seem like i get 2-3 ppl that want to be carried every week....carry and get carried i guess..i like getting carried..less work for me.....but well yes...i m pretty sure i can handle heroic tanking or dpsing...grouping with knobs and ppl who just wasting ppls time is extremely exhausting..should i join a raid guild?...ive done guilds they didnt work before...maybe i just dont fit in the WOW community....i'll give an example of how things go and you can say if it happens to you....we did icc the other day and i myself have most success against PP and sindragosa....2 of the funnest fights in there for me...so we took forevr on Putricide because these 2 girls just seemed like they were more interested in cruising for dick then playing...and trying to lead the raid when they werent leader...anyways....so i say ok ..ill tank the boss or she wanted to do the Abomination....i was better at tanking PP so we finally downed him after some replacments were made....and i say we go to Blood Princes and we one shot the next three bosses listening to me...then all of a sudden she wants to be lead again and power trip how shes so good and has downed Sindragosa many times tanking....so i tell her to get on her tank...others say it too...she doesn't so anyway we're now stuck with a newbie tank and slacking healers...she wants to be the general..ok princess go nuts...go lovee you but....so of course we spend a good hour=hour and a half wiping on Sindragosa before ppl start getting tired wiping.......idk why i continually get these ppl in my raids...not necessarily her but slackers...baddies? am i as bad as these peeps...idk.... i dont lose aggro...i dont do "horrible" dps not when compared to others on the realm... Bad luck maybe?...i dont like wipes as is but theres nothing more frustrating then wiping on such a simple fight.....and repeatedly to boot....its frustrating feeling im good enough to beat these bosses and even at a higher lvl but get a few nubs in the group...and they wipe the whole thing....it's so common ....im extremely bored so im going to make some more posts thanks for reading
lets leave leading to the raid leader
i guess i dont feel like im getting to see how good i really am...no-one pugs heroic...

When you're one of the founders of one of the Internet's most popular home technology websites, your house is bound to be swimming with high-tech products. "Over the past seven years, we've been going through the house turning it into a showcase of sorts, with some of products and systems that I have found to work well for our lifestyle," says David Bott, who in addition to the AVS Forum, also founded Home Theater Cruise: Technology Conference at Sea, IPTVconnection.com, TiVoCommunity.com and owns and operates DBSTalk.com.
As an industry "insider," Bott is fortunate to be able to test-drive many select products in his own 4,500-square-foot house in upstate New York. It's been a work in progress, as Bott continually swaps out old products for new, and marries disparate systems together to create a network of technologies that work seamlessly together. Rather than stick with one brand or type of TV, for example, Bott tries them all, incorporating a range of different models to compare and contrast … and to offer people who visit his home a variety of things to look at. Sometimes, those people have even helped Bott in his endeavors.
The same goes for the video projectors, Blu-ray players and other equipment. "[Integrating new products] is a time consuming process," admits Bott. "There's a lot of trial-and-error—when you live on the bleeding edge, you're bound to encounter hiccups—but when everything works and looks and operates like you envisioned, it's exciting." Because information on the AVS Forum is dedicated largely to do-it-yourselfers, Bott, along with his wife and friends, have installed every piece of technology himself.
After years of updating, replacing and swapping—and connecting, programming and testing—Bott says he's ready to slow down. "Once you get to a point where everything is working perfectly, it's time to relax and savor what you've created." That's not to say that he's resigned to let the technology in his house get stale. He attributes his Z-Wave-compliant HomeSeer automation system for helping keep the functionality of his house fresh. "Automation is my and my wife's favorite part," says Bott, "especially since it lets us remotely monitor devices while we're on the road. [Bott and his wife travel the country about seven months out of the year in tech-laden motor coach].
While on the road, the Bott can access 96 individual Z-Wave devices, including controls on hot water tanks, fountains, light switches, thermostats, and a host of other devices via computer, cellphone, or tablet. The HomeSeer system keeps things running smoothly, too, switching on and off lights randomly and monitoring the home functions right down to voltage use. Complementing the automation system, and also tied into it, is a home security system. Complete with an array of sensors, the system also consists of a combination of 16 wired and wireless IP surveillance cameras. A software product called BlueIris signals the cameras to record video whenever motion is detected, and sends alerts to the Botts, including video footage, via email and SMA.
When the Botts are home, they interact with their HomeSeer system again via the same mobile devices, plus wall-mounted keypads and handheld remotes. One press of a button, might signal the HomeSeer system to set the lights and thermostats for the start of the Botts day; another turns everything down for bedtime. Or, both the morning and bedtime routines can happen automatically based on the time of day and motion detection.
In addition to HomeSeer, there are systems in place for activating each of three separate media systems. The dedicated home theater boasts a Runco VX2-DC 3-chip DLP projector with an AutoScope lense that projects onto a 10-foot wide SMX CinemaScope screen that can change shape based on the video format. Audio is provided by a 7.2-channel setup featuring Triad speakers, Velodyne subwoofers, an Anthem D2V processor and Lyngdorf amplifiers.
The Botts outfitted the great room with two displays: a 59-inch Samsung plasma TV and a 7-foot-wide DNP Supernova screen, which descends over the plasma on command from the Logitech remote. The Supernova gets its video from a JVC RS50 projector, and Anthem, Triad and Velodyne team up again for the audio.
The third entertainment system is designed for gaming. Here, an Epson Ensemble system, which bundles a 100-inch screen, projector and 5.1 speaker system in one package, provides the A/V. The screen stays hidden in the ceiling until the Botts press a button on a remote.
As a huge supporter of the consumer electronics industry, Bott has been willing to try all sorts of technology—and approaches each new device objectively. Still, over the years, he's developed a few favorites—if you can get him to admit what they are. Judging by the assortment of products in the equipment list below, it's hard to tell.

text: After the Birdfair I am seriously looking at getting a Canon 7D but if I do get one do you recommend a battery grip, and if so which one? Do they make much difference? I notice the screen on the back of my old 40D always seems dimly lit and poor quality, not sharp at all, would a 7D & battery grip impove this? I was looking at someone with a Nikon D700 of something the other day and his screen was so much brighter and bang on sharp, it made mine embarrassing. Will i notice much improvement on my 40D with a 7D with this? :mad :

Part 1: Parce mihi, Domine
Part 2: My soul is very sorrowful
Part 3: At thy mystic Supper
Part 4: O dulce lignum
There are no designated characters in the piece: the chorus voices the words of Jesus and reports on events. The prominent solo soprano is a distinctively Marian and maternal presence, as the woman who anoints Christ's feet, as the visionary Mary Magdalene, and as a tenderly sympathetic observer of Jesus and his mother's suffering. The string ensemble by turns amplifies the choral textures, offers a static underpinning with sustained drones, and subtly undercuts the vocal message with ironic counterpoints of its own.
The work is in four parts, each prefaced by lines from scripture, which play without a break. Part I opens with four solo voices singing a setting of Parce mihi by the sixteenth-century Spaniard Cristóbal de Morales; seemingly preludial, this objet trouvé is soon established as an important other-worldly presence as gently dissonant string chords are laid over it, and the solo quartet returns subsequently with Morales-derived material, always a hauntingly alien feature in the musical landscape. The soprano recitative that follows is both lamenting and ecstatic, supported by long-drawn string textures which reveal the distinctive harmonic tincture of the work—fluidly modal, flecked with chromaticism, and inclined to downwards semitonal step-movement in the bass. The choral benediction that ends this section has a beatific calm, though as it dissolves into whispers uncertainty returns with an uneasily transparent string chorale.
Part II begins with open-fifth drones in the lower instruments, anchoring the restless lament of the choir in a static D minor, sardonic violin figures offering their own dissident commentary. As the drama intensifies, the sense of foreboding increases, with downward harmonic shifts and greater chromatic density. There is a pounding muscularity to this account of Jesus's humiliation which culminates in hammered shouts of 'crucify', haloed by a shrieking string texture 'imitating extremely nervous clamours of seagulls' (the composer instructs). After a fortissimo call for forgiveness, 'they know not what they do', subject to multiple repetitions, the solo quartet returns, their tonal certainties anointed with healing balm from the soprano, though as the chorus murmurs a Latin version of the quartet's words, instability returns as the strings tell a different harmonic story.
Part III has a simple rondo structure. Over an 'eternal' pedal C, the soloist offers up an extended meditation, ambiguous in modality and embellished with grace notes and glissandi, while a single violin provides an agitated, flickering descant. Twice the soloist is answered by the choir with luminous diatonic clarity, as two lone sopranos soar to seraphic heights; the second time around this blissful resignation erupts into anguished cries and the final grieving is shared by the soloist and the choir, the strings adding to the desolation with subtle enrichments of the voicing. Again, the solo quartet has the last word, as Jesus gives up his spirit.
The melismatic, rapturous unaccompanied solo that opens Part IV is echoed by hushed choral chanting, cushioned by strings. The landscape is bare, as sighing pairs of chords haltingly descend over an inner pedal. The dazzling moment when 'the Lord is risen' is exultant and brief; there is a hiatus of uncertainty before the act of recognition that is the crux of the matter is heralded by the solo quartet. Their rapt repetitions of 'Mariam' draw in the choir, hesitant at first yet ultimately glowing as they settle into a gentle oscillation of two chords; the voice of Mary Magdalene soars above them with quiet radiance. Over and over again they call to each other, hypnotic and serene, as a luminescent string chorale slowly ascends to the heights. Yet there is an ambiguity at the very end—which of the two chords is perceived as the 'tonic'? This lack of finality is essential, for the story must, and will, begin again.

Have a new idea?
|philtrocity says:
I think the ability to complete/postpone tasks from the "Reminders" screen would be great. When you select the reminders from the notification tray, currently you have have to "drill down" into each task and complete or postpone it from there. If the reminders screen had the same functionality of the main task list view (checkboxes and popup complete/postpone), this would save me time.

Hoai-Tran Bui, special to wtop.com
WASHINGTON - As the dulcet classical music swells from the laptop perched on a table at the front of the dance studio, all eyes turn to Christopher Morgan, the 37-year-old modern dancer and Artist in Residence at American University.
He immediately launches into the complicated choreography that he seems to be making up as he pirouette and weaves through the studio. The wide-eyed group of young AU dancers follow his every move, picking up his movements effortlessly.
It's the kind of inspired and impromptu dancing style that sets Morgan apart from other educational choreographers, as well as his experience as the artistic director of the professional dance company Christopher K. Morgan & Artists.
You have a very intimate and playful instructive style than other dance instructors I've seen. Would you say being close to your students helps you teach?
Yeah, I think getting to know the students really well just helps the whole educational process. I think if people feel that they're invested in that way, that they're more likely to learn and grow and prosper, and especially in an arts environment, that's really a key part of the long-term journey and growth of each student. I'm also interested in the multiple approaches of learning --some people learn better with humor, some people learn better with rigor, so I do try and balance those kinds of approaches.
Do you focus mostly on modern dance or do you explore other areas?
These days my focus is primarily on modern dance. I grew up in Southern California, so the first big exposure I had to dance was through jazz dance, a much more commercial scene. So when I began, I was focused on that. I always trained in ballet throughout my career and really believe in some of the tools it gives dancers, and I've also studied a lot of martial arts. So I think what ends up happening in my work is that it's a synthesis of all these different things, that I've studied different types of modalities and movement over the years, but definitely my focus is on modern.
So what would you say your dance style is specifically?
If I have to say it in just a few words, I would say it's modern dance, the contemporary aesthetic. And then when I talk more about it, I tend to say that in general I start creating a new dance with an idea or a sense of meaning. Sometimes that meaning is rather apparent in the final product. Sometimes it's just a jumping off point if I'm moving for something more abstract as the work develops. But I'm definitely interested in making art that's about something, not just pure abstraction.
So how are you influenced to make those abstractions in art? Like, how are you inspired?
Usually an original inspiration for dance comes from something personal, either that I'm experiencing myself or that I observe in life around me. I think a few of the works that I've made that in some ways have been the most successful some really have to do with the personal journey that I've been through myself.
I have a work entitled "Rice" that uses a childhood task that I had every day of making rice for my family for dinner. Then it became an exploration for me also about race. As a child I would watch my hands every night making rice, and as the water would turn milky white so would my skin. And that kind of became this interesting thing for me as a child sometimes wishing I were different than I was. So that ended up being sort of a monologue which turned into this performance piece that I've probably performed more than any other piece in my life; I've probably done it more than hundreds of times by now.
Do you see the body as an art form itself?
Yeah, absolutely. I think the amount of training and discipline that it takes to get a dancer's body into shape is like any other classic art form -- it just takes a lot of discipline, a lot of time and investment, focus and energy that spans a lifetime. And then in terms of the artwork that I make as a performing artist, the body is my primary tool.
At the same time, I'm interested in other mediums. Occasionally works of mine have incorporated texts. I collaborate with other artists. Right now, I'm working with a cellist. In fact, the class you just saw, all of that music is kind of working tracks of a piece that will be premiering in April. So though the body is my primary tool, I'm also interested in all the different ways that an idea can be transmitted in performance. And I think the body's a big part of it but not the only part of it.

Type and age of salmon in Mill Creek
Overall, the water quality factors that we tested for were within the salmon's optimal range.
Conclusion: Could and would Aumsville Wetlands be used by salmon as habitat?
To answer this question we had to examine the pathways to the site, the physical characteristics of the site, and its water quality.
In the not to distant past, Mill Creek was supported by a run of fall Chinook salmon, but few if any return now (Gary Galovich ODFW). The main reasons for this decline is a reduction in the amount of habitat of salmon due to modifications, like the construction of dams and other barriers, and a decrease in water quality. Increased used of pesticides and fertilizer in agriculture, increased levels of toxins, and increased sediment runoff from logging, agriculture, and construction, have all negatively effected salmon populations. At the Aumsville site in particular, we know that the many smaller ponds were used as a hatchery in the past. Because of the decrease in the amount of salmon in Mill creek, the county would have to carefully consider whether to try to restore this to salmon habitat or concentrate in another direction.

WATCH: Ellie Goulding covers Justin Timberlake's 'Mirrors'
Listen to Ellie Goulding on iHeartRadio | Listen to Justin Timberlake on iHeartRadio
Much like the rest of his "20/20 Experience" hits, Justin Timberlake's "Mirrors" has become extremely successful. You can't turn on the radio without hearing it. What could be better than Justin singing it? How about Ellie Goulding!
This week Ellie posted a photo to her Instagram account of herself and Justin, with adorable word bubbles written in, of Ellie asking Justin if she could cover his hit song. His response? "Sure EG"

Haste is important in order to get another tick of LB. The amount of haste you should go for depends on hiw close you are to gettinf another tick of LB.
I have been playing around with a fire mage for some time now and i have yet to find any class/spec combo that can out do me in burst or sustained dps. This has lead me to belive that fire is now superior to the arcane spec.
I recently got into a DPS race with an equally if not better geared arcane mage, and i came 200-500 dps higher then they did after the instance was completed. On each boss my lead in total damage deal only increaced and by the end of the instance the REcount showed that i had 38.9% total damage dealt to the arcane mages 26.4%.
I have also noticed that in terms of dps the closest runner up is a Retribution paladin. Coming in within 100-200 dps at any given time.
So what i am wondering here is: Am i just that well speced and familiar with the new rotation that i can out dps most players sho are properly speced? Are the other players simply poorly geared/speced? Is it that fire has simply been made better then many other dps classes? Or is it that the dps range on the Fire mage is simply unbalanced against the current dps curve? And is fire the new raiding spec?
Now for the other point of this thread. I am also wondering:
Fire triggers most stuff off of critical hits: Is Crit my #1 non primary bonus after SP? And how much haste should i aim for with the spec considering that most of my spells in the rotation are instant or become instant.
Haste is important in order to get another tick of LB. The amount of haste you should go for depends on hiw close you are to gettinf another tick of LB.

That is interesting. But lifeblood does not "tick" any more it is a 5% haste boost when used. However i do have it. You seemed to have left out over half the thread. Haste is not as big when 5/6 spells in the rotation are 0.0 sec cast time. And you did not answer any of the questions other then the one pertaining to the importance of crit. As i said i am FIRE not ARCANE. About the only spell that i use that would require haste for any thing other then GCD is Scorch. And after that i don't use fireball or Frost fire bolt. I do still use combustion when i get a decent dot on a boss and living bomb whenever applicable.
LB = Living bomb. I'm sorry for the confusion. Haste now affects how often a DoT spell ticks. Fireball is still primary mage spell and will do more damage than any other spell. Fire is still very dependent on crit but the new Hot Streak talents mean its a lot less reliant on crit RNG. Whether crit is better than haste depends on how close you're getting to another LB tick.
Comparing yourself to others in a heroic matters very little. I would use that as a basis of how skilled or geared or specced you are.

Ok That makes a lot more sense. However i have compared my scorch to my fireball and my scorch seems to have a higher dps. My character is only 71 and holds no less then a sustained 1400+ dps and can go as high as 1600+ if i get lucky on crits. (which is what i am currently stacking) How many extra ticks would you say i should aim for on living bomb. I also favor scorch over fireball because of itst cast speed and lack of mana cost. More Casts=More proc ops. And considering my scorch does slightly less then 1/2 of my non-crit pyroblast (around 2.5-3.5k damage [crit for 5-7k] for pyroblast) i have favored it because it can also be cast on the move which will preserve a lot of dps in raids when you have to move during a boss fight light marrogar, Putricide, and cindrigosa.

You probably aren't gonna get enough haste to get another tick of LB. I'd just put on whatever gear, stat values are gonna fluctuate so much that I see little point getting that concerned about it. All my statements were assuming you were at max level, with epic so they may be very off for leveling.

I worte this thread so that i could get an idea for when i hit lvl cap with him in Cata because he is going to be my Raiding Alt. However we could spend quite some time disscussing the variability of how useful crit over haste is when it comes to the proc of effects and such. I have a boomkin that was previously badly gemmed and now that his gems play into improving his dps purely. (ask not how he got icc geared) i wanted to get some proper information about that i need to stack in order to avoid having to spend a lot of money in the end to get the right gear after messing up because i would rather get it right the first time.. I do however realize that as i get more haste scorch will have a diminishing return against fireball when it comes to how greatly the dps on the spell is improved. d
At 80, right now in the game, arcane blows fire out of the water. Not really contested. I can get over 20k dps on a boss on a heroic by pressing 1 button. Not tough.
In cata, it is a horse of a different color, though. Arcane appears to be the lame duck [1] at the moment with frost and fire taking over in the raiding environment for different roles[1]. ALL classes want haste. For a mage, haste is your top priority after hit cap and int. For a fire mage your stat priority would be: Hit Cap, Int, Haste (until you get the extra tick on your dots), then crit.
Fireball is your top spam nuke, however you will run out of mana at the 3 minute mark like all mages do [2], to combat this you can either spam talented (free) scorch, or switch over to glyphed mage armor for the regen.
| Fire | Frost | Arcane
Single Target DPS 4 4 4
Multi Target DPS 5 3 1
Mobility 5 3 1
Burst DPS 3 5 5
Survivability 3 4 4
Is the table straight off EJ thinktank. I think you might want to read there for a while anyway just to get a better feel for the class as it appears you might not know some of the mechanics that well. Some of the things you say don't really make any sense to me and I apologize for that, I just have trouble understanding people for whom english was not their native language.
To address level 85 issues, fire pve rotates around getting hot streak procs and crits on your instant pyros. Crit ratings with current gear make crit so low that it is very difficult above 20~%, keeping that in mind here is another direct quote for you.
"Use Hot Streak whenever possible, recast Living Bomb after every explosion, use Flame Orb whenever possible, and spam your filler nuke in between. Filler nuke can be Scorch, Fireball, or Frostfire Bolt. Fireball is the highest dps, but you will not have enough mana to use Fireball at all times.
Mana management is an essential part of Fire dps. Fortunately this is not overly difficult with free, high damage Scorches. Single target rotations using Scorch do about 90% of the damage of a Fireball rotation at a fraction of the mana cost."
Look at the boss only parses, and if your arcane mage had any clue how to play he should have left you in the dust by 5-7k on bossfights. Since bossfights are the only thing that means anything at the end of the day, you probably didn't win.
In any case, there's a thead on this in this forum at the top. It's updated for 80 towards the end, but not 85 yet. We'll update when we get there on the live servers.
i appreciate the help. You have good advice and i like that. I will look into the 85 rot...perhaps a balance of swamping fireball and scorch every other cast would prolong a higher dps range with molten armor up while still providing a 95% of pure fireball rotation, and extending the effective dps range further then either rotation alone?
Do you really want players to spec out of crowd control talents?
In Wrath 5man content, trash was easily 75% of the instance - is speccing to make the entire instance go faster bad?
I think you should spec for the content you are doing. If you are seriously raiding, then yes, speccing for trash is silly. If, however, you are doing 5man content, speccing for trash is usually a smart thing to do.

Interesting that fire and frost mages may be up for a buff.
however the one thing that you have to remember is that the same concept can apply to the other specs in terms of conservation. As each spec has a trick that will prolong their anti oom...fire has free casts, frost has low costs. (on certain abilities). I feel that fire is an alternative raiding spec for fights where mobility is the primary concerns as opposed to arcane which need to remain still to cast.

This week it's all about London as Fashion Week kicks off today (eek!). But LA also got it's own little bit of London as Topshop finally opened a store in the city and of course it attracted some big names wearing Topshop.
Topshop girl Kate Bosworth (remember she sang in their Christmas campaign) opened the store yesterday with Sir Phillip Green and Chloe Green in a denim J W Anderson for Toppers shirt. She's clearly a fan of our Toppers, as Kate also attended the opening party the night before in a gold cut-out Topshop dress. Kim Kardashian was there hiding the Kimye bump in black feathers, Jennifer Lopez wore a tiled metallic dress with black sleeves and Solange Knowles wore Unique's Spring 2013 monochrome check.
Kate Bosworth, Sir Philip Green and Chloe Green open the LA store
The party was also a Brit invasion, as Poppy Delevingne, Liberty Ross and Kelly Osbourne were all there in front of the Union Jackets and London black cabs. The best thing about this party? Most of the stars ditched their usual couture and designer clobber to wear good ol' Toppers so that means you can easily copy their look. We love Emma Roberts' mix print floral shift which is only £46, Christa B Allen's yellow jacquard crop top and mini and Mary Elizabeth Winstead graffiti print midi.
The Topshop pieces worn at the event
So which is your favourite look fromt he event? Kate Bosworth perhaps? Or Kim K? Let us know which Topshop look gets your vote!

text: An overlooked gem from the early years of Schema Records – a straight jazz set that crackles with classic modal energy! The group's really a great one – and features some tremendous trumpet from Fabrizio Bosso – plus trombone from Gianluca Petrella, piano from Stefano Bollani, and saxes from Gaetano Partipilo – mostly all players who've really gone on to make a name for themselves after this set! There's a really classic feel here – somewhere between the Italian jazz of the Basso/Valdambrini group, and some of the best hardbop on Saba/MPS. The group falls into none of the cliches that you might expect – quite a surprise at the mid 90s time of the session, but a bit more common in today's club jazz era – and the production here is wonderful too, just right for the 60s feel of the record. Titles include "Mr. Kenyatta", "Argento D'Africa", "Unit 7", "Mira", and "Modal Convention". © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Here at the Annenberg Space for Photography, we've had the great fortune of many incredible photographers lecturing at our IRIS Nights for our BEAUTY CULTURE exhibit. One of our guest lecturers on Thursday, November 3rd will provide her own unique insight from her career in front of the camera. Model, actor and long-time humanitarian Amber Valletta (seen above during a visit to the Space) started modeling as a teenager quickly establishing a high-profile career by landing her first Vogue cover on the eve of her 19th birthday. Her success as a model would soon transition to television and film with Valletta taking over co-hosting duties from Cindy Crawford on MTV's House of Style followed by acting roles in Hitch and the current ABC show Revenge. Her increasing fame also provided an opportunity to work with multiple charitable organizations that focused on Valletta's childhood interest in social relations.
One of her most recent fashion spreads for the September issue of W Magazine has also been one of her most controversial. In an industry where youth and beauty are usually a prerequisite for success, Valletta inhabits a role in "One for the Ages" spanning 12 decades of life with a final lasting image of a decrepit, yet intimidating elderly woman of the future. Because aging is often the death knell for many models, the actual intent of the photo shoot is a rarity. In the issue, Valletta said of the layout.
"You see women who are getting older, and they're still thought of as powerful and sexy and sensual. Ten years ago that wasn't talked about nearly as much...My best advice for aging gracefully is probably going to be more of a spiritual or a psychological answer, which is just trying to find peace in life and being happy and sharing that with other people. Ultimately the insides never change. The outsides will always. And it's transcending that that I think makes a beautiful life."
We couldn't agree more, Amber! If you don't have a chance to see Valletta along with photographer Amanda de Cadenet at our IRIS Night on November 3rd, we hope you'll still find an opportunity to check out BEAUTY CULTURE here at the Annenberg Space for Photography until November 27th. You can check out her spread in W, shot by Steven Klein, here.

Ford Fiesta ST GRC Racecar is hungry for podiums in 2013
by Seyth Miersma (RSS feed) on Feb 7th, 2013 at 6:29PM
As we reported earlier, the Chicago showing of this plucky Ford Fiesta ST GRC racer points to bigger and brighter days for Global RallyCross. For the upcoming season, you can expect to see Ken Block and Tanner Foust both driving the Ford racecar, and if last season's results are any indication, you can anticipate quite a few podium appearances, as well. The Fiesta seen here was built by the Swedes at OlsbergsMSE, and will be driven in anger by Foust in 2013. Modifications are, as you'd expect, extensive, and include an engine, exhaust and braking upgrades, a racing style short-throw... Read More

WinPho 8 fans now able to order HTC handsets
HTC's Windows Phone 8 range went up for pre-order today as the company prepares to flood the market with its 8X and 8S handsets this Friday. The brightly coloured blowers - announced last month - join the roster of WinPho 8 devices set to complement Microsoft's platform release this week. Unlike devices from Nokia and others, …
400 quid?
I'd wait a week and a half and grab the Nexus 4 for ~£280 (240 for the 8GB version)
Re: 400 quid?
Can you remove Android from that and put WP8 on it?
Re: 400 quid?
Why would you want to?
Re: 400 quid?
Me too. Buy the Nexus 4 and blow the money saved on Chaz and Dave LPs.
Re: 400 quid?
The main question is why would you pay 400 quid for a HTC phone you know is going to fall apart within six months.
Re: 400 quid?
Good idea - actually, screw it I won't bother with a new phone, I'll blow all my money on Chaz and Dave LPs
This has put me in a real quandry. I want WP8, partly to be contrary, but my contract is up for renewal today. I wanted the Lumia 920 in tweetie pie yellow (contrary theme again), but still no firm release date, and now HTC tempt me with a snot green one...
No Fair!
Nearly here...
Black 920s are shipping now in France, with red and yellow as pre-orders.
("Dispo' Internet" == "available online") That's the French subsidiary of Carphone Warehouse,
The HTC colours look nice, but I wonder are they paint-over-plastic rather than dyed-in like the Nokia's. Either way, the big draws for me to the Nokia are the low-light camera and the touchscreen you can use with gloves on.
Weird, isn't it.....
Who'd of thought there'd be a day when people would choose Microsoft software in order to be "contrary".
The end of the World is truly nigh.
You do know all that footage was fake
The 920 can't really do any of that stuff, it was done on a pro-shoot...
I can't fathom any other reason why someone would want any Windows Phone 8.
Available on EE
The Lumia 920 is available on EE now. £19.99 for the device on a £46p/m contract.
Should be available in stores on Friday too.
Re: Weird, isn't it.....
It is an odd observation, but yes. Android and IOS are so prevalent that in order to be different and individual WP8 and HTC/Nokia colours is a way to express that individuality.
Apple is no longer cool IMO, it's common, mainstream, mass market. You cannot be a premium brand if every bugger you see has one. Samsung for example, never tried to be a premium brand, again IMO, they wanted mass market numbers.
So in order to be different, the only real standout differentiator is WP8, rightly or wrongly.
Re: Weird, isn't it.....
So looking like a nerk is the new cool? Who knew?
Timmy Mallet for fashion icon
Re: Weird, isn't it.....
As someone who ended up with WP7.5 more-or-less by a mistake - somewhat fuelled by a desire to have as many different environments to hand - I'm lucky enough to have an evidence based opinion. I have ios / bb / android / maemo devices.
WP feels completely different, it's UI is simple, but very alive, something that none of the others seem to manage. ios feels dull and passive in comparison. I very much like the 'live' tiles, photos changing, information, tweets, status etc. I like the integration of apps (and dammit, I like the choice of apps too, only one I'm missing is words with friends - but all the ones I use are there - evernote, mapping - lots - vnc, ssh, running stuff, internet radio, astronomy apps, etc.). Next time I'm looking for a pad, Surface (or whatever) will be a true contender.
Can't see me moving away from linux desktops though.
Re: Weird, isn't it.....
Wait, I will just rip out my cool blue N9 :D
Windows Phone - No Thanks.
Do they have any Jellybean handsets I can buy?
SD slot
It appears the cheap one has a memory card slot, and the dearer one doesn't. How very peculiar.
[BFO ? icon]
Nokia releases phones with "hard" edges and corners and "in your face" colour scheme to match the "in your face" colour scheme of WinPho.*
HTC follows suit.
Do the Asian producers have 1 original idea between them, or are they simply incapable of that?
While these are not copies in any sense, it is clear that they have taken their cue from MicrOkia. Bizarrely they are following the lead of the least successful phone range in history (hyperbole, but you get the idea).
*Ok, The N9 tested the water with pink and blue, but I digress.
Now I could be wrong, but their striking similarity makes me think it's a look MS has agreed on with its hardware partners. Maybe they want Apple-like consistency.
Makes for a change from the White for girls black for boys iPhone (personal observation only, ymmv)
RE: "2.1Mp front-facing camera, able to capture up to four people in a frame"
That's going to make wedding photo shoots a strenuously long job (depending on the couple's social skills, anyway)...
Re: RE: "2.1Mp front-facing camera, able to capture up to four people in a frame"
What happens if 5 people stand within the frame? Does one of them just not show up?
I'm considering getting one.
My personal contract is up for renewal, Now I have a much loved Galaxy Note on that SIM at the moment, but as a standby phone they certainly look the biz.
It's either one of these or a Lumina 920.
Re: I'm considering getting one.
Wouldn't you want your standby phone to also be an Android handset, so you can access all your Googley bits?
Re: I'm considering getting one.
>so you can access all your Googley bits?
no need, the hole I cut in pocket works just fine!
Re: I'm considering getting one.
I have a "spare" Galaxy Note as well :sheepish grin::
I want a bright red handset for a spare.... Who am I kidding? I want a Lumina 920 but the wife would kill me....
MUST RESIST bright coloured shiny....

CHESTERFIELD, Va. -- A Chesterfield County man faces charges of bringing a handgun into an elementary school.
Police tell media outlets that 33-year-old Michael S. Berry was carrying the 9mm handgun in a holster on his side when he walked into A.M. Davis Elementary School last week. Berry went to the school to pick up his daughter and left without incident.
Berry told investigators that he didn't know carrying a gun onto school property is illegal.
He is charged with possession of a firearm on school property.
Virginia law allows citizens to openly carry firearms in most public places. Restrictions include schools and courthouses.
