Gaming Consoles Posts - Page 40
Xbox One will be capable of scanning QR codes with its Kinect sensor
The Xbox One is getting closer with every breath we take, and with each day that passes it feels like we're hearing more about the console. Today, the news has broken that the Kinect sensor has a cool ability.
This ability is that the sensor will let gamers scan download codes with the Kinect camera, versus the current way of entering them in manually - which is such a chore. Kinectimals is used as an example, which takes advantage of QR codes. It makes getting into the game not only easier, but faster.
Microsoft telling Xbox One developers to start with Windows 8
We know that the Xbox One is pretty much a PC now, with its x86 architecture and Windows 8 bubbling along inside, but how are Microsoft talking to developers who are unsure where to start? Well, Microsoft have been saying they should create Windows 8 apps first.
Vice President of Microsoft's Developer and Platform Evangelism group, Steve Guggenheimer, has said: "Xbox One has two engines, it's got a gaming engine and it essentially has a Windows 8 engine." Microsoft are making sense here, something they really need to amplify in the months leading up to, and years after the Xbox One launch.
If developers begin on PC and just develop, the game requires no porting to the already x86-based architecture of the Xbox One. This means PC games will be stellar, with the only thing stopping us from having PC-built games is the game development will be done around the world of a controller (slower input method) and TV at a distance (field of view weirdness).
Xbox 360 will begin streaming Time Warner Cable later this summer
The Xbox one has this cool little feature that allows users to plug their cable boxes directly into the console which allows the Xbox to facilitate the changing of channels for you. While the Xbox 360 will not have the channel changing features it will be getting the ability to stream cable TV later this summer.
This morning Microsoft announced a deal with Time Warner Cable that will bring its live TV options to the Xbox 360. Unfortunately for this to happen users will not only need a pre-existing Time Warner Cable subscription, but will also need an Xbox live Gold membership before you can download and install the app.
Time Warner Cable follows in the footsteps of other content providers such as Verizon which brought its FiOS TV to the console 2011 along with ESPN and HBO to have dedicated apps. How do you feel about been able to stream Time Warner Cable TV through your Xbox? Is it worth paying for an Xbox Live Gold subscription to access the service you already have access to via your set-top box?
Sony will continue to support the PS3 after the PS4 launches
For those of you who have a PlayStation 3, don't fret, Sony will continue to support their current money-maker once the PS4 launches later in the year for $399.
The confidence in the PS3 comes directly from Sony Japan President, Hiroshi Kawano and Sony Worldwide President, Shuhei Yoshida, when they spoke during an interview with Japanese gaming magazine, Weekly Famitsu. They said that support for the PS3 will continue indefinitely, and that the company has "no intention of immediately shifting from the PS3 to the PS4."
Kawano also noted that after seven years since the PS3 launched, it continues to "sell at a constant pace" and that there are countless titles headed to the PS3 in the future. Kawano added: "With the 2014 launch of our cloud service in the US allowing users to play PS3 games on the PS4, some people may switch consoles from the PS3 to the PS4. But that'll be a gradual process, and to say 'we're releasing a new console, so trade in your old ones for it' would be a maker's ego talking, plain and simple."
Alienware: next-gen consoles are just PC's with a controller
Alienware are still here, making some seriously high-end gaming PC's and notebooks, and their General Manager, Frank Azon, has some harsh words for Microsoft and Sony's next-gen consoles.
He said that the Xbox One and PS4 are just becoming more and more like the PC, stating that the PC is the ultimate gaming platform, and that Microsoft and Sony are just borrowing concepts from the PC and putting them into a flashy-looking box that sits in your living room.
Azon isn't just talking fluff either, as we know that the next-gen consoles are powered by x86 architectures, which is what the PC is built upon. On top of that we have AMD building them, which are a PC company. We have digital downloads, streaming TV and movies, which have been staples of the PC industry for years now.

AMD says they won't have any issues manufacturing silicon for PS4 and Xbox
Console manufacturers have traditionally had issues having enough supply at launch. Inevitably, some users faced price gouging on Ebay if they were set on getting a console within the first few weeks. According to AMD, they won't be the result of any delays as they are completely capable of making plenty of silicon.
AMD corporate vice president and general manager of Semi-Custom Business Saeid Moshkelani:
From a manufacturing perspective, in a year we ship tens of millions of units. So we have a very strong manufacturing base for our APUs and discrete graphics. We leverage the same manufacturing infrastructure to develop for game consoles. So the volumes were not something that actually raised an eyebrow for us, because we're already in high-volume manufacturing.
This is good news for gamers, provided Sony and Microsoft don't experience supply shortages elsewhere in the manufacturing process. It should mean that more consoles are available at launch, helping to reduce any price gouging that may occur.
Rovio to slingshot Angry Birds Trilogy onto Wii and Wii U consoles this August
Today, Rovio announced that the Angry Birds Trilogy will be heading to Nintendo's Wii and Wii U consoles this August 13. This will bring it in line with the existing versions already available on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Nintendo's own DS.
The game will come in a disc-based collection and will include Angry Birds, Angry Birds: Seasons, and Angry Birds: Rio. There is no word yet on when or if Angry Birds: Space, Angry Birds: Star Wars, or Bad Piggies will make it to the consoles. The company says that the trilogy will offer 140 hours of gameplay as well as 30 episodes right on the disk, including some new and exclusive levels.
The trilogy is the perfect fit for the Nintendo Wii and Wii U as they are geared more towards entertaining families and are very popular with younger children. I may go out and buy a Wii just so I can use the slingshot via the Wii Remote.

Sony releases PS3 firmware update 4.46 to fix bricked machines running 4.45
Last week, Sony pushed out a firmware update that wound up doing much more harm than good. The 4.45 update wound up bricking thousands of PS3 consoles and left owers wondering if their machines would ever work again. This morning, Sony has released a firmware update which will fix those consoles broken by the 4.45 firmware update.
The new update, version 4.46, will fix your broken PS3 in three easy steps that require downloading the new 4.46 firmware, activating safe mode on your PS3, and then manually installing the update onto the machine. Thankfully for those less technically minded, Sony has created an easy to follow, step-by-step guide. Did your PS3 break due to the bad firmware? Try the fix out and let us know if it worked.
Sony removed PS4 camera to beat Microsoft on price
According to sources close to Sony, the entertainment giant decided to not bundle the PlayStation 4 camera with every console so they could beat Microsoft's $499 price point. But not only did Sony do this to beat Microsoft on price, they didn't let retail partners know that the price changed. The only information they provided to retail partners was that the PS4 camera would no longer be included with the console.
This might have been a great move. Not only was Sony able to beat Microsoft on price, but it turns out that people don't like an always-connected camera in their living room. Sony has been able to avoid accusations that the device might be spying on its users.
On the other hand, it will likely cause the PlayStation camera accessory to see less uptake in the market. By not requiring every user to have it, game developers will have to deal with a fragmented landscape where only some gamers have the camera. This means developers are unlikely to make as much use of the camera, which in turn provides less incentive for users to buy a camera. It's the classic chicken and egg scenario.
Sony loves developers, proves it by launching indie game channel for PS Vita
Sony has continued its support of independent game developers by launching a new indie game channel for its PlayStation Vita handheld gaming console. This new channel is the direct result of Sony launching a similar channel on the PlayStation network last month.
With 53 titles already, Sony has begun highlighting new releases such as Hotline Miami, Thomas Was Alone, and Limbo. Sony says it has plans in the coming months to showcase highly anticipated Vita-only releases such as Spelunky, Luftrausers, and Hohokm.
In a blog post Sony said:
At PlayStation, we're proud to support indie development, and our unrestrictive policies make it easier than ever for developers to launch games on PS Vita. We recognize that the unique perspective that indie developers deliver contributes to the success and future of the gaming industry. And we've learned as much from working with talented indie developers over the last several years as (we hope) they have learned from us.

Review of the 2014 Chevrolet Spark
The 2014 Chevrolet Spark is a solid choice for first-time buyers and city dwellers thanks to its low price, diminutive size, and plentiful amenities and safety equipment.
- Safety
Inexpensive without feeling cheap; spacious interior; available high-tech features.
Slow acceleration; rear seats a hassle to fold down.
What's New for 2014
For 2014, the Chevrolet Spark receives a new continuously variable transmission (CVT) that replaces the previous four-speed automatic. Chevy says the CVT reduces engine noise on the freeway and increases both fuel economy and acceleration. The rest of the car is pretty much unchanged, though enhancements have been made to the Spark's smartphone connectivity (late availability).Read full review of the 2014 Chevrolet Spark

A listing on Amazon now shows off the pair of Samba de Amigo maracas from Sega, although they look a little different from what we may have expected:
Priced at $14.99, both the Wiimote and Nunchuk can slot into them. So these are the official ones, but there will also be efforts from third parties - such as this pair from GAME:
Samba time is now less than a month away, the game comes out on September 19th.

Above: The only Hooker in the class of '65 is pictured with Gene Carouthers.—-
Hey, do you find yourself carrying out your daily "rounds" while secretly humming "Yesterday?" You know the Beatles' 1960s tune about the time when your troubles were so far away?
I do, and while yesterday may not have been as picture perfect as I remember it, we certainly had a different set of problems as we tried to find out who we were and what we were sent here to do.
Yesterday, my high school friends did a little reminiscing as we always do when we get together. Any excuse will do. This week it was Beth Hooker Herron's twice yearly trunk showing. Hooker is one of my favorites and you can't be around her without laughing. And I usually come home with some frock which reeks of Hooker's taste which is infinitely better than mine.

MOVIE REVIEW:Hammer of the Gods
Frankly, I don't know where to start with this one. This is not the
beloved Thor of Marvel Comics but a Viking type who lands on an
uncharted island with his crew. There, they encounter weird forest
creatures while seeking a mythical hammer of power. Maybe Thor becomes
the Thor I know by the end, but I couldn't get that far. Shot in
Bulgaria or some similar dreary place, this TV movie is absolutely
pathetic. The acting is as wooden as the boat Thor and his buddies sail
on and one of the kids from Home Improvement plays Thor. He ain't Thor,
however. Believe me. There's even a female warrior in the crew, which
of course would have been impossible. She's there for the same reason a
female warrior shows up in the abominable KING ARTHUR, both of which
were pathetic attempts to play to female viewers. Skip this one if you
value your sanity.

DRAFT WNA Minutes – September 2014Posted by Amy Ruiz in Minutes
DRAFT Minutes
WNA Board Meeting 9/3/14
Once approved, these minutes will also be posted at http://necoalition.org/programs/woodlawn/.
Attendees: Lisa Gladstone, Anjala Ehelebe, Christy Splitt, Luke Groser, Byron Tennant, Maija Spencer, Shirley Minor, Thelma Diggs, Deb Hartmann, Patricia, Rosalind Scott, Stephanie, Misty Doornek (Lombard Animal Hospital), Jason
Meeting called to order at 7:05pm.
MOTION: Thelma motions that the agenda be approved as amended to include a visit from Commissioner Amanda Fritz and a sponsorship request to be made by Thelma, Lisa seconds, motion carries without objection
MOTION: Anjala motions that the July 2 minutes be approved as posted online, Lisa seconds, motion carries without objection
MOTION: Christy motion that the July 31 minutes be approved as posted online, Luke seconds, motion carries without objection
Closing out 2014 and looking ahead, updates from our chair
Lisa is not running for Chair again, wanted to say thank you for our patience and our contributions to our neighborhood. She felt like a real highlight was the Dog Forum in January – reviewed the issue about offleash versus not offleash, we had a facilitated conversation about the problem and solutions, no decision to move forward with an offleash area, but it did diffuse some of the tensions. It was really important work. Lisa has a proposal – NW Resolutions has a great program to teach neighborhoods to have productive conversations and involve varied perspectives. Lisa proposes that the new board participate in a 2-hour training with NW Resolutions, and that the organization would be stronger with such training. She proposes using this as a 2nd Wednesday sort of deal.
Anjala – is there a limit to number of people who attend? No, Lisa thinks board members should attend, but the more the better most likely. Anjala – would there be a cost? Lisa – No. Thelma – if we do this, then it should be advertised more than just our standard meetings. Postcards and flyers, perhaps. Lisa thought maybe we could make it a holiday event, share flyers when we do the holiday lights? Deb – is the new board selected? Lisa – next meeting is the nominating meeting, and then the 3rd Wednesday of October will be the elections of new board members. Maija – points out that there will be space on the board and people should join. Thelma – asked to review when we meet again – generally, first Wednesdays, but sometimes, like for the annual meeting, on the third Wednesday (which is happening in October). Christy asked if it was copacetic to prescribe a meeting for the new board, folks think it's fine.
MOTION: Christy motions that we slate a NW Resolution training for Third Wednesday in November (November 19th), Anjala seconds, motion carries.
Anjala – this has been a busy year! We had the I Heart Woodlawn event, in addition to the Dog Forum, and she reviewed some of the great ideas from that event and in other venues lately that we could pursue in Woodlawn in the next year…
- Get together with Oregon Humanities and PSU to do a meaningful discussion about history, gentrification, sustainability, health, and other topics
- New principal wants to engage neighbors
- Kickball league
- More block parties
- Neighborhood yard sales and parties
- Annual Clean-Up – see if we can help more folks who can't do yard work to do that
- Find care for neighbors who cannot get out of the house
- Should we have a neighborhood promenade on Durham?
- Add railroad art as a feature in Woodlawn, to draw folks in like Peacock Lane
- Can we get the symphony back?
- Lisa brought up the pollinator habitat garden tour that another neighborhood does and talked about raising awareness about toxics and she wants to work on that next year – it's a seed waiting to sprout. She also raised her concerns about Portland being too restrictive about keeping hives – have to reach out to neighbors to get okay, cumbersome. Anjala shared her own experience with having a pollinator-attractive yard and how fun it is to watch the birds and bees.
- Parking is a growing concern in the neighborhood, with the new building – The Dekum – nearing completion and then other new construction. Folks raised questions and concerns about this, Anjala raised that buildings with less than 40 units can be built without parking, talking about developers being able to circumvent it, will be a topic for neighborhood in next year – charging for parking, having permits, etc.
- Shirley – also wants to raise continued train issues
- Jason mentioned the military jets taking off from the airport – Anjala briefed on this issue, future plans for the airport, ability to get involved with Noise Advisory Group, and plugged involvement in comprehensive planning process (this year is the public testimony stage)… Gave example of Concordia neighborhood doing work on school issues in that process. Byron mentioned that there is an office hours on the comp plan at NECN tomorrow night, 9/4. Byron and/or Maija will send details and Christy will post online.
All it takes is one neighbor taking on a project that they are passionate about and real change/cool projects can happen… The more active we are together and individually, the more impact we can have.
LAND USE and TRANSPORTATION UPDATE
Anjala gave an overview of the NE Coalition and the subcommittees that Woodlawn is involved with – Land Use and Transportation, Safety and Livability, Schools, Economic Development – as well as how we all engage together in coalition.
Current issues at the NECN level – infill development and demolition, increased development moving us toward – as Lisa puts it – a more San Francisco style density and economy. Neighbors also concerned about tree removal. Maija raised that there will be a stronger tree code to maintain canopy coming next year. She also raised that our land use system means that we will be more dense in the city, but there is good with that – no sprawl, better transit, more walkability, more natural areas outside the city.
Good month for coal, bad month for oil
Anjala and Byron shared the backstory with Rick and his efforts to create a quiet zone to decrease train noise… We were reminded of the costs – like $1 million to add four gates (see past minutes)… Discussed the closure of NE 11th at a past meeting, with a lot of concern raised by neighbors at that past meeting. Byron wants to keep this issue open – sleep is important and with more trains, we are getting more noise.
For the past several years, this school has been a low-achieving school according to the state. Scored in bottom ten in the whole state, which meant that we were able to apply for federal grant funding to increase student achievement. State and school got the grant – $400,000 per year for next three years, including the hiring of staff – teacher training, community connections, and family connections. As part of the grant, they had to make some changes – including a new principal, coming from Reike, one of the best schools in the City, to lead the turnaround.
School also high on the list to get remodeling and retrofitting done under the new bond – that work happened over the summer, adding a science lab, seismic upgrades, etc. School was closed all summer, with the new principal had to work all over the place and teachers and principal all had to move back in within just a few days of school starting. School would appreciate our support!
Also talked about the catchment rate – 58% of Woodlawn catchment area kids are transferring out and since money follows kids, it is a huge problem.
SMART – need more volunteers to read with students at Woodlawn during the school year to preschool through 3rd grade students. SMART program liaison will be here in October at our meeting, an hour a week if you max out, but you can do even less…
Commissioner Fritz talked about her positive experience with volunteering at schools in Portland.
Parks Bond is on November ballot – we have paid for our parks via bonds and levies, last one passed in 1994, 192 shiny new projects all over Oregon and we have been paying that back at $13 per average household. We will pay that off this year, and with $13 per average household, we could raise $68 million to devote to maintenance. Right now, we only put $1.5 million into maintenance and we need about $365 million over next 10 years in expected maintenance. Our regular fees and taxes go toward staffing… The bond would NOT RAISE TAXES, but instead just keep things at the current level. Commissioner Fritz also shared some of the details on the successful Summer Free for All events, including Movies in the Park.
Fixourparks.org for more information… Individuals and organizations, including our association, can endorse the ballot measure and she hopes that we will take that step.
She also talked about the list of projects that have to be addressed in the next three years – the pools in NE, for example, are on that list – including the Dishman hot tub, which Thelma cares about quite a bit. Then, the City will have a public process to list the next round of projects.
Anjala said that we will continue to talk about this issue on our Facebook page and spread the word.
Commissioner Fritz mentioned that since it is so modest and uncontroversial, the bond is not getting a ton of campaign donation attention – so relying on grassroots support.
Shirley – vandalism – have park rangers improved that? 14 rangers are on duty at any one time – unarmed – and they have really helped with the vandalism issue. Mayor declined to support more funding in the past budget and asked Commissioner Fritz to do a report on the effectiveness of rangers, which she is working. She also mentioned that we have 2100 workers that are seasonal employees that do not make more than $15 per hour and have subpar benefits – so a priority of hers is to convert more of the seasonal positions to regular full-time staff, and she moved 23 people over in the past budget.
Commissioner Fritz also mentioned that Parks, Housing, Transportation, Emergency Management get just a small share of the general fund (if any) – over 50% go to Fire and Police.
Shirley reminded the Commissioner that we love our Woodlawn Park and are grateful for fun summer events like Movies in the Park and SundayParkways.
MOTION: Luke motions that the Association supports the Parks Bond (26-159), Anjala seconds, motion carries without objection (straw poll – support unanimous from audience, with one abstention)
Still have about $300-400 to spend from Communications budget last year after we pay for new lawn signs – don't want to return it and if we can spend it soon, we should be able to
Board members to think about what we want to spend that money on…
Communications budget after we are done with the $622 will have to be handled differently. We have to share a plan and then get reimbursed on a case-by-case basis.

This is the first Copyblogger post by Michael Stelzner of Writing White Papers.
Today's "I want it now" culture dictates that you make people happy by providing what they want, when they want it.
Need information? Google it.
However, is it really wise for marketing folks to satisfy people's desire for instant access?
M. Scott Peck describes delayed gratification as a sacrifice of present comforts for future gain in his book, The Road Less Traveled.
By NOT providing people what they want, when they want it, you can actually improve your image, enhance your branding and increase your sales.

Man Accused of Calling Cab to Get Rid of Body [Video]
When a cab driver showed up to pick up a customer in Ypsilanti, Mich., she noticed that something was up.
He was carrying something pretty big covered in a sheet.
When a cab driver showed up to pick up a customer in Ypsilanti, Mich., she noticed that something was up.
He was carrying something pretty big covered in a sheet.
A man caught two people robbing his Long Beach, Calif., home.
So, he pulled out his gun and shot at both of them.
One guy managed to get away. But the other, a pregnant woman, wasn't so lucky. She's dead!
Troy police are currently investigating an alleged homicide that in which a 16-year-old teenager lost his life.
There have been far too many stories in the news this summer about parents leaving their kids in the car while they go in and shop. This is not okay! We all know that a quick trip in the store can end up being much more than that.
Details are extremely scarce at the moment but it appears as though three are dead in East Greenbush.
As a parent, stories like these both infuriate and sadden leaving me asking the most basic of questions. How do you forget your kid in your car, then go work a full day?
With warmth finally here, everyone, and I mean everyone, is outside in force soaking up Mother Nature's vitamin D infused awesomeness. With that said, sometimes we forget the little things, like, life.
You may remember a couple weeks ago about a guy who woke up in a body bag because we was declared dead. Well, he's now dead... we think.
Imagine this happening to you? What would you do an how would you feel? It's hard to even fathom, but is not as uncommon as you'd think, as a Mississippi man experienced just that. He was presumed dead and just when he was about to be embalmed he awoke in a body bag and made himself known.
If you're going to go out you might as well go out looking like a total bad ass. Nothing says "Ride or Die" like actually dying and then continuing to ride. Or something a lot like that.
Billy Standley formally of Ohio had it all figured out when he made the dying wish to be buried on top of his bike
Have you ever lost someone and wish you could still talk to them? Creepily enough, through a new social media 'bot' it's actually possible.
Sometimes things in life seem so bad that I often wonder if I have died and just didn't know it yet. But then someone tells me to move out of the way and I realize I'm not I just at some Taco Bell

Pricewatch: Readers' queries
This week's consumer concerns relate to Irish Water, Leap cards, and the Russell Hobbs registration system
Irish Water problem has caused ripples of dissatisfaction
Is Irish Water a figment of our imaginations?
Deirdre O'Leary wrote to us as "a last resort" with a query about Irish Water. She wants to know if it exists "or is it a figment of our collective imagination?"
What is behind this existential question? "I have had a problem with water pressure, resulting in an empty tank in the attic at one stage. I was dealing with Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council who suggested myriad problems, all in the house. Having had these suggestions checked out by a plumber, the problem remained. "The plumber thought dirt had got in when the stopcock on the road was replaced recently and it needed to be blown."
After all that she got back to the council. It said Irish Water had now taken over and gave her a number to ring in Cork.
"I rang on May 6th, my complaint taken and allocated a reference number, and passed on to – guess who – DLRCC. I rang again on May 20th and the complaint was forwarded again. I rang last week to be told it had been dealt with, in other words no action taken. So their computer registers 'complaint dealt with' but customer is left in ignorance."
She then asked for a name or number she could ring in Dublin or even where Irish Water was located, and was told "they could not release this information".
She says an ironic feature of her story is that during this period a market-research company rang her on behalf of Irish Water to assess how her complaint was dealt with.
"Do you have any information about this very secret company?"
Well, no, but we thought we might be able to find out. We got in touch with Irish Water and were told that, with effect from the end of April, the handling of water service issues transferred from the 34 local authorities to Irish Water, making Irish Water the main point of contact for customers.
"In the seven weeks since, Irish Water has successfully responded to an average of 750 customer queries every day. Unfortunately, this was not the experience of this customer, and Irish Water apologises for any inconvenience caused. We have contacted with the customer and are working with her to resolve the issue."
An issue making the leap to a new system
A reader called Richard commutes daily between Blackrock and Heuston Station. "For many years I have been able to do this on a single paper ticket moving easily from Dart to bus. But this ticket is shortly to be phased out, forcing me to use a Leap ticket for my "flexibility and convenience".

Michael Kors is an American designer with a label by the same name. Kors began his label in 1981 and became known on the international stage in 1997 when he was named the creative director at French label Celine where he worked until 2003. After appearing on the popular design series "Project Runway" as a judge for eleven seasons, it catapulted Kors to a household name. In late 2012, it was announced that Michael Kors would no longer appear on the show. In 2014, Forbes released an article naming the designer a billionaire.

I might not have picked the glass shade type if I had seen it in a store but fortunately it is not too obvious that it has a pattern. The lamp itself is looks well made and is very nice, especially for the price ( I bought 3).

The old "coconut" smear: Another white liberal bigmouth with race issues
A few readers asked me why I hadn't commented on MSNBC's latest attack on the Tea Party as RAAAAACIST. Been there, done that. Over and over and over again. (The Dallas Tea Party posted an excellent rejoinder video here.)
The whole right-wingers-are-racist and minority-conservatives-are-race-traitors-wrapped-in-color thing is getting really, really old. Staler than last year's Halloween candy, Diane Keaton's wardrobe, and the Smothers Brothers' show. It's gotten so old that yet another white liberal bigmouth has now resurrected a smear I first heard in college: "Coconut." (See here and here for my past musings on the vile bile minority conservatives have put up with over the years.)
Newsbusters reports:
MSNBC and CNBC contributor — and professed Charlie Crist admirer — Donny Deutsch used racially charged language on Monday night, smearing Republican senatorial candidate Marco Rubio as a "coconut." Deutsch appeared on HLN's Joy Behar Show and used the word, which both the New York Times and Urban Dictionary define as a "person who is tan on the outside" and "white on the inside." Rubio is the son of Cuban exiles. [Audio available here.]
Deutsch employed the derogatory term while hitting politicians with no experience. He noted the success of such candidates and derided, "…You almost need that blank piece of paper. That's the new model. Like, you know, this coconut Rubio down in Florida."
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Brown on the outside, white on the inside. What is this? Sophomore year at Oberlin? Guess this bottom-feeder didn't get Van Jones' civility memo yet.
On a related note: Jon Stewart mocks CPAC as a "festival of whites." And I'm sure the studio audience and demographic breakdowns for his nightly shows are a veritable rainbow of fruit flavors.
On another related note: Website Lists Clarence Thomas, Robert Mugabe & DC Sniper as "Embarrassing" Blacks.
Quick primer for those of you unfamiliar with the "coconut" insult:
If you are a conservative with Latino/Pacific Islander/Filipino heritage, you're a coconut (brown on the outside, white on the inside).
If you are a conservative with Asian heritage, you're a Twinkie or banana (yellow on the outside, white on the inside).
And if you are a conservative who happens to be black, you are an Oreo (black on the outside, white on the inside).
Okay, who is getting hungry?
Update: My great blogger friend and fellow coconut Val Prieto at Babalu (who I had a pleasure to meet in person last week in D.C. at a blogger bash) has an update on the story — Donny Deutsch is now playing dumb. Not that it's such a great stretch…
Here's the direct link to Deutsch's Tweet. Sure, of all the words to come out of his mouth, "coconut" just happened to roll off the bitter tongue…

A suspect in the 1984 disappearance and death of a Crowley businessman has pleaded not guilty. Leila Mulla entered the plea Friday morning in a Baton Rouge court. She is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Gary Kergan. Police believe Mulla and another suspect, Ronald Dunnigan, beat Kergan to death. Mulla will return to court on September 19 for a hearing.
