Egypt, the most populous country in the Arab world, claims one of the world's oldest cultures, descending from an ancient civilization that emerged in the 10th millennium BCE.
Widespread Middle East unrest in 2011 loosed grievances against the 30-year autocratic rule of President Hosni Mubarak, who was ousted following a dramatic period of protest that became a watershed moment in the Arab Spring. This upheaval paved the way for the country's first free parliamentary elections, in which the Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed Morsi was elected president. Subsequent protests against Morsi's authoritarianism led to a 2013 military coup d'etat and the election of former general Abdel Fattah el-Sisi as president in 2014.

- How I made peace with America's No. 1 shopping holiday
Liz Zimmermann had no overnight campers surging into her store early Black Friday morning.
In fact, her Whatever Pops Up gourmet-popcorn store in Larimer Square didn't even open until 10. But Zimmermann still wants — and expects — a piece of the holiday shopping action.
Independent retailers in Colorado and nationwide are participating in Small Business Saturday, a campaign to highlight the benefits of patronizing smaller merchants.
"I love the idea of having a day for small businesses, especially after Black Friday," Zimmermann said. "I'm expecting holiday sales to be a significant portion of my entire annual sales."
Last year on Small Business Saturday, U.S. consumers who said they were aware of the promotion spent $5.5 billion with independent merchants, according to American Express and the National Federation of Independent Business.
That's a relatively small portion of the estimated $59.1 billion in total spending last year over the Black Friday weekend. But proponents said shoppers are showing increasing awareness of the economic importance of homegrown retailing.
"It forever needs pointing out that it is small businesses, not big businesses, not big-box stores, that employ the majority of working Coloradans and generate almost every new job," said Tony Gagliardi, Colorado state director for the NFIB. "Any little boost they receive, tens of thousands of others benefit from."
Sage North America, an Irvine, Calif.-based business consultant, reports that for every $100 spent at a local business, $68 stays in the community. The same amount spent at a non-locally-owned business generates only $43 in local impact.
The Mile High Business Alliance promotes "Buy Local Week" for post-Black Friday shopping.
"These businesses offer unique products and services," said Mickki Langston, executive director of the alliance. "They help contribute to a healthy and vibrant local economy."

Thank you for publishing the Winter Twilight Mitts pattern: it's beautiful. I'm doing a sunset sky with Panda Silk Cranberry Tones. This is the first stranded color work I actually expect to finish, and I've ripped it out twice all ready =)I have a question about the chart: it's drawn as if the thumb portion is right aligned. IE, the new stitches go into the first pre-existing column, and push all the existing stitches one column over to the left. For the pattern to look the same on the knitting as it does on the chart, the increases would have to be at the end of the chart instead of in the middle, as indicated.In actual working, with the increases in the middle, the block is left aligned: the new stitches start a brand new column, and the black slanty line up the left of the chart is actually a column. But it looks like the pattern of branches is drawn so it looks pretty on the chart, rather than looking pretty when knit. I charted it out, and there are indeed floating black portions that don't connect up. Here's my chart so you can see what I mean (click for larger size):
So, am I doing this wrong? I interpreted the pattern as calling for a single increase in each box marked M1 (one while reading right to left, and the second while coming back). This puts two increase lines straight up along the edge of the hand, dividing the thumb fabric from the hand fabric. Is that incorrect? Maybe I'm doing something else wrong entirely?Thank you for your help!
Hi Shawn...
Not sure if I can help...but will be glad to try. These are on my to-do-list but haven't done them yet. I have done countless items of stranded colorwork...both my own designs as well as those of others.
I'm not totally understanding your descriptions but did print out your chart to compare to the orig. I find yours not very accurate (sorry!!!) mainly because your first gusset st sqs along the increase line are not complete or even all the same sz sqs. I realize you were trying to make the thumb gusset look more "real" but it actually kind of messes up what I'm seeing.
Before I forget...I have to say that your color combo sounds really pretty...love to see them when you are done!!! Are they for you or for a gift? I was thinking about being able to try on for fit as you go. I saw your (?) sock when I went to print your chart. You must be doing afterthought heels, are you? I did 1 pr w/ those (Jaywalkers) + I quite like the way they fit/feel. I'll shut up now + go back to your problem...
W/O having done them...just looking @ the charts...I don't see any issues w/ the orig ones. I'm thinking maybe it has something to do w/ the fact that you've not done colorwork before. Have you used charts for anything else before? ie: lace/ cables/ etc ?
A several little things I'll ask....
#1: on rnd 36, you are working 32 sts in patt, then pl M, then make a total of 2 sts in MC, pl M, work remaining 32 sts in patt (end rnd)...correct? So you've not "interfered" w/ any of your orig sts...just created 2 more sts dead center w/ a M on ea side of them ? A total of 66 sts now.
#2: On rnd 37; you work to 1st M, sl M, work 2 sts in MC, sl M, work to end of rnd.
#3: On rnd 38; you work to 1st M, sl M, M1 st in loop you pick up, work 2 sts in MC, M1 st in loop you pick up, sl M, work to end of rnd. You will have a total of 68 sts now. There will be 4 sts between the M's @ the gusset.
Not trying to talk "down" to you...honest...just trying to make sure you are getting off to the right start. The internet does have it's limits when trying to help someone. The only thing I can think of is that somehow your incs are messing you up. They will always be touching the M that they are next to...they do not "travel out" into the gusset. So they do not affect the look of the sts in the center of the gusset....those sts just stack neatly on top of each other all the way up.
Your final paragraph makes perfect sense to me!!! That is correct.
Did any of this help @ all ??? If not, I'm happy to try + help some more if you give me more feedback. I will get around to making these but need to do some other stuff 1st. I got an order for a pr of wool worsted wt mitts in colorwork...yesterday, so must do them.
Take Care, Andrea
ps: just went back + looked @ all the charts/ etc one more time. Are you allowing for the fact that a knit st is actually "v" shaped...not a neat sq? So that while 2 sqs may look connected tog...2 "v's" seem to be "floating nearby"!!! In this patt I think the designer was trying to use that...bare tree branches against a dk sky often look a bit disconnected. Just my take on it.
Thank you very much for your help!
My re-charting isn't to make the chart look more real, it's to get the columns to line up: ie, increases aren't in an existing column below, they start an all new one. The problem isn't with the stranding; it's with the justification. I have used cable charts and even other stranded stuff (that got ripped out, but matched the chart). I double checked my chart against the pattern, and the gusset is transcribed correctly at least through row 51, so I'm not sure where you're seeing differences in charting. Maybe up above where I gave up checking =)
You realize, no matter what the shape of the block on the gusset, all of the enclosures are stitches? And the triangles (as opposed to the 4 sided shapes) are where the stitch happens to be an increase?
Let me try to rephrase the problem I see with the chart. The body of the glove is 32 stitches across, then 32 back. When you start adding the thumb gusset, you add increases, but you do them at the border of the body of the work and the thumb gusset, instead of up along the edge of the thumb. So, when you're doing, say, row 46, you knit 32 stitches, then increase 1, then knit 5 more stitches, then do it again in reverse (knit 5, increase 1, knit 32). That increase stitch starts a whole new column of stitches. It doesn't continue the last main body column, nor does it continue the first thumb gusset column. It's all new. But the pattern shows it as being in the first thumb gusset column, and shows the all new stitch as being at the end of the pattern, which would be along the edge of the thumb. This also pushes every existing stitch in the row over a column, instead of leaving them in their existing column. Essentially, it's like there was an earthquake in your neighborhood, and everything has slipped one house to the side, and suddenly you're facing an entirely different house across the street. To make the pattern work the way the chart implies, you'd have to knit the 32, knit the 5, *then* increase, then do it all backwards.
I'm not sure if I can answer your question about floating V shapes. I just know that what I was knitting looked really wrong. You have little pieces of branch floating around, and they're completely surrounded by sky. Take a look at the thumb here:
It looks much more like my chart than it does like the pattern. Up at the top of the thumb, the last branch on the edge is broken rather than continuous. I read that the pattern author free-handed the first glove, then wrote the chart for the second. I'm wondering if that picture is the second glove, and the chart was transcribed oddly or something.
The socks are actually yoga socks, from Just Jussi's pattern, so they have neither heel nor toe, so that your feet will stick properly to the floor. That's another panda silk colorway (nutmeg tones). I didn't particularly like how they turned out: the varigation length and the circumference combine to make it look like brown camoflage. I did a set for my mother in Jojoland Melody that turned out much nicer.
Thank you again for helping me out with this. I've had the mitt sitting on a table lonely because I don't want to finish it looking wrong.
I really didn't forget about you...tried to answer twice last nite but for some reason lost my reply twice. The 2nd time it actually signed me out of KD??? I'm very much a niteowl...but since the 2nd time (long answer gone poof!!!) happened @ 6AM I decided that maybe the knitting gods were trying to tell me something. Go to bed maybe?!?!
Anyway, I'll try again. Probably a poor choice of words the other nite. Sorry! I wasn't really trying to say your chart was wrong...I didn't check row x row...but that it looked wrong to my eyes. After knitting as long as I have (I'm 51 learned to knit @ 6...you do the math) you get used to "reading" things a certain way. Slanted/ partial sqs just look funny to me + I can't visualize as well.
This is actually kind of fun talking to another knitter that I suspect approaches knitting in a similiar way to me. I suspect we are both a bit picky/ perfectionist/ + math minded. The more I look @ this mitt/ patt I think perhaps it's going to turn out that that is just the way the patt is. This case bothers me less than some might because of the subject matter. I have a yard full of leaf-less trees right now. If you go out @ nite + look up....a lot of the smaller branches don't look connected. If this were a geometric pattern or some sort of man-made design...unconnected would drive me nuts!!!
Now you have me really intrigued + I want to try this patt now. However I really need to finish this order 1st. I'm about 1" past the thumbhole on the 1st mitt...so it is getting there. This chart we've been "discussing"...I've wondered about working just the thumb gusset in sock yarns. If I kept say black as a main color + switched out the background on 5-6 of them....I can see a cool hat top...+ a quick way to see the graph knit up in one of them.
Where did you find this other pic of the mitt? I hadn't seen that one. I also envy you being able to upload something. I tried following the directions here when I finished the Herringbone Rib socks so I could show the lady who had orig asked for help w/ them. I don't get the option to "browse" so I can select what I want to upload. I have uploaded pics to Kijiji before so I'm not totally dumb about this. Do you have any hints? Could something be set wrong on my account? This is bugging me!!!
I left the email w/ the latest post fr you up on my inbox screen yesterday while doing something else. My husband used the computer + commented on how much he liked them. While not a knitter he is a fiber/ textile/ color person so I guess he's a keeper!!!
2 final thoughts: if the chart bugs you...why not change it to suit yourself. You certainly have the skills to do it!!! I haven't met a pattern yet that I didn't love to tweak! I've always thought that a patt was meant as a starting point...works for me!!!
If you have the patience to wait till I finish my order...I will try this next + post here w/ my results. If I can figure out how to upload a pic....I'l even share one of my efforts w/ you. I hope to have the order done in 2-3 days max....health permitting as that sometimes screws me up.
Take Care....Andrea
I found the picture here. As for uploading pictures, I didn't do it =) I just linked to the picture from the article. I did upload my chart, but to picasa (they'll give you a free account and walk you through uploading if you like), and again just linked it here. I didn't see an option to upload an image here. Give picasa a try. It's very user friendly.
I'm quite sure something's weird with the pattern, just because it looks so right on the chart, and so wrong when the chart's drawn as it actually comes out. I've tried re-charting, but you have to scrap the original and start all new; it's not just a matter of shifting squares according to a formula =( That's probably what I'll end up going with. I'm just not very artistic. I love following a pattern, and I love finding little errors or ambiguities, and figuring out what actually should be done, and writing it up. Proofreading, kind of. I'm approaching the whole thing as an engineer, which I am, and I suspect that it's a little foreign to knitting as a whole, but it leaves me with a woeful lack in the creativity area.
Good luck with your order, and thank you so much for your help!

Top 10 U.S. Cities With Dreariest Weather
It's cloudy. Again. It's raining. Again. When will the sun shine? Some U.S. cities are just naturally dreary, and it has nothing to do with the type of people who live there. It's the weather. Leading the list of "dreariest cities" is Buffalo, followed closely by Seattle and Pittsburgh, according to Brian Brettschneider, a meteorologist based in Anchorage, who has created The Dreary List.

There's still not a lot of action out there with the SSE swell very small and clean in the 1-2ft range on the open beaches that pick up more of the S swell and around 1ft on the points. It's buried under an early high tide and the winds are light W early with N winds forecast for later in the day and the tide is high early, dropping to at 11.47am. It's the same story as the last few days with once again with the Tweed Coast, D'bah, far N end beachies and TOS the pick early on the higher tide with some smaller ones along the N end beachies.

A very loyal German shepherd named Capitan continues to stand guard at the grave of his owner six years after the owner passed away. Amazingly, the dog wasn't aware of the cemetery prior to his owner's death. "He turned up here one day, all on his own, and started wandering all around the cemetery until he eventually found the tomb of his master," said the cemetery director, who now takes care of the dog. "During the day he sometimes has a walk around the cemetery but always rushes back to the grave. And every day at six o'clock sharp, he lies down on top of the grave, stays there all night."

Film: "Raaz 3"; Starring: Bipasha Basu, Emraan Hashmi, Esha Gupta; Directed by: Vikram Bhatt Sehgal.
"Voodoo karle saajna..." If your career starts to slip up, have no fear. Consult God. If He lets you down, consult his nearest rival Satan. Shake hands and even bed the devil, and you have an ally to work on your enemy.
So now we know why actresses in Bollywood can't get along. They are too busy sticking needles into one another's careers to focus on their own. Shanaya (Bipasha Basu), we are told at the outset without wasting time, is a top-notch actress on the downslide. Instead of drowning her defeat in drinks, she decides to smother her nearest rival, the upcoming Sanjana's (Esha Gupta) career, using her director-lover Aditya as a bait.
Writer Shagufta Rafique's screenplay is more of scream-play. The two actresses between them scream their lovely lungs out, as hands pop out of graves to lunge at shapely throats. Mirrors are broken and used to pierce satanic casualties and to track down ghouls which appear only in mirror images.
Just where Vikram Bhatt gets all this information on the dark side of the moon, we will never know. Presiding over the ritual of unmitigated evil is Satan in human form living in a slum that would give Danny Boyle an orgasm, wearing a suit that has seen better days, sitting on a forlorn chair parked in ankle-deep water.
This, I guess, is apocalypse in the other world. Hell, director Vikram Bhatt even throws in two seances where our hero - weak vulnerable ineffectual and uncertain as only Emraan Hashmi can be, enters to save Sanjana who is under a satanic attack.
The jealous Shanaya unleashes what could comfortably be called an orgy of gory violence on the other actress. If this is what the fear of failure does, then success be damned!
The Bhatts have never shied away from demonstrating onscreen brutality in its bloodiest form. "Raaz 3" is their biggest blood fest from the Bhatts after "Murder 2", which I feel, redefined screen violence.
"Raaz 3" is also not for the squeamish. The death of a poor house-help who dares to suggest to Sanjana that she might be a victim of "jadu-tona" (black magic), is particularly gruesome.
Now we know why kitchen staff is so hard to find in Mumbai.
Vikram Bhatt infuses a lot of shock value through the saturated soundtrack which keeps pounding and pelting sound effects, hammering the horror of a young vulnerable actress being destroyed by voodoo until we are left trembling and cowering in our seats. If the anti-satanic rituals don't wake up the dead, the soundtrack surely will.
Esha Gupta as Sanjana, is sincere and stark. She uses some of the horrific moments to soften the blow of the over-blown, like the one in the hotel washroom where she's attacked by scores of insects (a grotesque parody of Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds") or that tender touching scene in the hospital where she says the best line of the film to Aditya (Hashmi) who has just confessed he has been helping Shanaya in her black magic and offers to redeem his soul by saving Sanjana.
"Ab mujhe bacha kar kya fayda jab mere paas ab bachaane ke liye kuch bacha hi nahin?" Sanjana whimpers.
In truth "Raaz 2" has its moments where horror melts into a kind of full-blown mythological tale. Aditya rescuing Sanjana from death is a clever gender-reversal of the Savitri-Sayavan mythology where the wife won back her husband from Yama, the God of death.
Here Satan in a soggy suit is played Manish Chaudhari who tries to make sense of the mumbo jumbo. It must have taken a demoniacal degree of self-control for the actor not to giggle when his characters challenges Shanaya with, "Tumhein mere saath wohi karna hoga jo ek aurat ek aadmi ke saath karti hai. Hai himmat?"
Get it? Shanaya quickly does.
It's Bipasha who holds together the feverish proceedings. She delivers a full-bodied gutsy performance. Pulling out all stops she plays the devil-woman out to kill competition by hook or by crook, pouring her soul into her character, making Shanaya's desperation her own.It is a brave and fearless performance conveying the trauma of a floundering career.
Every actress fears the competition would overtake her. Some go to the plastic surgeon. Others consult the nearest black magician.
Either way the outcome is inevitable. Evil can't win. At least not in our movies, Vikram Bhatt springs a spook spree that offers viewers the irresistible bait of horror and sex. You wait for the horror to get sexy. Instead the sex gets progressively horrific. No Satan or its messenger can be as scary as Emraan Hashmi chewing on his two heroines' lips as though he has just relinquished vegetarianism.

RAAZ 3 is not just a horror movie that has its share of chills and scares.The horror quotient in RAAZ 3 is sure to make you break into a cold sweat at times, but what really catches your attention is the human element. On the whole, RAAZ 3 is a story of staunch Indian beliefs and convictions in conjunction with a lethal combo of sex and horror in 3D, competent performances, an engaging human drama and most significantly, there's a gigantic brand value attached to it, which has worked extraordinarily well with the masses in the past. With this film, Vikram Bhatt raises the bar for horror films formulated on the home turf. If you are an enthusiast of supernatural thrillers/horror movies, RAAZ 3 should be on your list of 'things to do and watch' this weekend. Go, get ready to be spooked!-Bollywood hungama
The story was good with little fear-factor but good 3 D effect.
Watched the Film i loved it despite few negative reviews i really liked it and enjoyed it not to mention the joker scene wiv esha was superb slightly funny but made me jump alot
The intimate scenes werent needed but its a bhatt film what can we expect
But overall i like it better than raaz 2 but nt better than raaz 1
Absolutely and completely avoidable. Lol to the last line though
The review was one of the worst of its kind as it nearly failed to deliver a clear message whether or not the movie is worth watching...rather the comments were more helpful to make a decision on that!!
thanks for the review..
i'll watch this movie just coz of bipasha..
just seen the film
was totally worth it
it's a thumbs up from me :-)
bipasha ws so good...bt d movie is nt good...total time waste...

Working Best: When handling angry customers, set boundaries
Q: I've got some new responsibilities that involve solving customer problems and I'm getting worn out handling their anger and frustration. I've been shouted at, insulted, and treated as if I'm an idiot. I don't know if it's worth it. I don't feel like putting up with this anymore. Any suggestions? — Georgia D.
A: Yes. It's about setting boundaries, and not letting customers cross over them. Their anger is real, and may be justified. But nothing justifies their cursing, insulting or belittling you. You're paid to help solve their problems, not be a punching bag.
Handling customers can be difficult under the best circumstances, but their anger makes it worse. So how do people who handle customer problems all day long do it well, and still enjoy their work? It's possible, depending on your inner strength, mental attitude, and willingness to practice good strategies for handling their anger ... and yours.
First, some basics: You are not responsible for anyone's anger — they make their own — just like you make your own. We're all responsible for our own feelings — no one makes them for us. Second, no one can make you angry or upset unless you let them. Third, people who are at peace with themselves have no need to judge others, and can calmly ignore the judgments of other people.
This is a healthy way to live. And it's especially important if you're in a customer service role. Actually, you're in an ideal position to help people feel better — even if you just listen to them and let them know they're important and valued.
Let's look at how anger is created. It's actually a secondary emotion — we feel something else first, which we're often not aware of. For example, if a driver cuts you off on the expressway while you're driving 60 mph, you probably get angry. But what you probably feel first is helplessness, feeling taken advantage of, scared, worried, panicky, etc. What you're most aware of is the anger you feel — probably out of habit.
The next time you feel anger, pause for a moment, and try to spot the feeling behind it. Then realize that any feeling is natural, and there's nothing right or wrong about a feeling. It's what we do with the feeling, and the anger, that defines who we are. It's especially important to pause when you're confronted by an angry customer, and then show how you can help solve the problem — or at least understand it.
Here's how to respond professionally:
Stay friendly, helpful and professional. Don't become defensive. Your most important response is to listen. Don't argue or interrupt.
Don't take the anger personally. No one can make you angry unless you let them. Stay positive or hopeful that the situation will be resolved.
Don't argue — express yourself with "I" statements: "I'm having a little difficulty understanding you. Could you please speak a little more slowly?"
If the person becomes rude, abusive, or attacks you personally, say: "I'm not comfortable with this conversation right now, and will call you back. What's a good time for you?" or "I can see you're upset right now. Can we talk a little later? I'd like us to work together to solve the problem."
Acknowledge the difficult situation: "I understand how you feel" or "I can see that's a problem."
Show you're trying to solve the problem by getting or providing important information. Try to get the customer to work with you.
Ask focusing questions: "Can you tell me more?" "When did this happen?" "Who was involved?" "What? When? Why? How?"
Ask permission to offer suggestions. Take notes and say what you're going to do to help solve the problem.
Ask what they think is a workable solution. Ask how they'd like to see the problem solved. Don't assume that your solution is the only or best way to handle the situation. Help the customer to take ownership — rather than telling them what you think they should do.
Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.
Summarize your action steps.
Thank the customer for expressing their concerns, feelings.
It helps if you see yourself as a helper, a partner to the customer. And you have a right to be treated with respect, to set boundaries. Actually, customers who are out of control have lost all sense of boundaries, so it's important that you maintain yours — and help them focus on solving the problem.
But don't expect immediate success overnight. It may take several days or weeks to practice this new behavior before you're good at it. But the reward is worth it: a job with less stress that you enjoy more ... day after day.

Re: 45' + blue water cruiser
Where to draw the size line is a tough question. I tend to think of it in terms of what can I single-hand even when I'm cruising with family. I've been with some people male or female that I'm sure can keep going longer than I. On the other hand I've been with some where after the first wave over the bow they go below and are done.
So if you have a very small crew, two or three especially if they are not very experienced, I think that the chance of you in reality being single handing is very high. Between seasickness, exhaustion, injury and fear your crew options can go down very quickly.
So if you agree with the above assessment the next step to think about is how much are you going to rely on power winches.
What it the biggest anchor you can manually haul up?
What it the biggest main sheet you can hoist?
You may decide the extra size is worth it but you are making a choice that you have to rely on the power. Not necessarily a bad choice but a significant one, at least in my opinion.

I thought the problem was with the ignitors/burners since they appeared to be worn. As it turned out, I needed the spark ignitor, which is a "brain box" located under the range cover. It connects all of the ignitor/burners and sends current to the ignitors to give it the "spark" to ignite the gas. It was really easy to replace.

UkranianiPhone.com has posted images of what it claims are iPhone 6 renders aimed at helping manufacturers produce accessories for the upcoming device.
The images appear to be better quality versions of the schematics leaked a few weeks ago. They depict the full-metal backplate with inlets at the top and bottom, assumedly related to the antenna structure. The cutouts for these lines match the image from the previous leaks. Interestingly, the renders also give specific measurements saying that the phone is 138mm in height, 67 mm in width, and 6 mm in depth.
Apple is gearing up to soon begin hardware repairs for the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c in its chain of retail stores, according to sources with knowledge of the upcoming initiative. These sources say that Apple Stores will be able to replace several parts of the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c on-site, meaning that Apple will no-longer need to fully replace iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c units with damage or other problems…
Update: C Technology has provided higher quality versions of the images above, which can be seen in the gallery at the bottom.
Only days away from Apple's September 10th iPhone event, new photos have come out which claim to show the box for the upcoming iPhone 5S. The same site has also leaked alleged photos of iPhone 5C packaging in the past. Notable here is the tweaked home button design, which appears to ditch the iconic inset square in favor of a ring around the edge.
Apple's next two iPhone models will be named iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C, according to a report from Japan-based Macotakara. With repeated reports and rumors of the next-generation iPhone retaining the same design as the iPhone 5, the "iPhone 5S" name has long been claimed and regarded as the name of the new flagship iPhone. Apple's iPhone 4S and iPhone 3GS retained the designs of the iPhone 4 and iPhone 3G, respectively.
However, because of Apple's surprise naming scheme for the third-generation iPad (The new iPad), an outright claim of the name "iPhone 5S" may be important to some interested in the upcoming device.
As for the "iPhone 5C," this name gained attention when purported packaging materials for the upcoming, lower-cost, plastic iPhone surfaced in photos online. It is unclear what the "C" in "5C" could stand for, but speculation and logic points to the "C" standing for "color." Like recent iPod touch models, this plastic iPhone is rumored to come in a series of colors…
We all know Apple, like most big tech companies, files a lot of patent applications for inventions that will likely never see the light of day. Today we get a look at a couple of its latest patent applications via documents published by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office and detailed by PatentlyApple.
On the more believable side, we get one that includes a new animated lock screen that would provide quick access to frequently used apps via a new animated feature accessible through a home button that could also recognize touch and pressure input (pictured above). Redesigning the lockscreen with new features has been a big request from many users, so this one isn't entirely out of the realm of possibility for future iOS releases: Read more

Photo gallery: Bushfires in Australia reach "catastrophic" level
Published on Jan 9, 2013 5:30 AM
SYDNEY (AFP) - Bushfires raged out of control across Australia's most populous state on Tuesday, fanned by intense heat and high winds in "catastrophic" conditions that threatened homes and triggered evacuations.
More than 130 fires were burning across New South Wales state, 40 of them uncontained, state Rural Fire Service commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons told reporters in Sydney.
"You don't get conditions worse than this, we are at the catastrophic level," he said.

Managing in the Next Society
Posted July 3, 2002
Yet Another Management Guide!
Like all of Peter Drucker's books this book contains useful management guidelines. It is well written and easy to read as always. On the other hand, it does not give any postive advice on how NOT to behave as a manager by which company management could align itself and management school could teach eager new managers, so that they do not fall prey to ENRON-like accounting systems and self-centered CEOs, which plunge a company into bankruptcy. For that kind of guidance, I would recommend the powerful messages to management woven with a touch of satirical humor within the true-to-life episodes of, 'MANAGEMENT BY VICE', by C.B. Don. As a complement to 'Managing In The Next Society', this book is also a great page-turner and asset. You will find it pays in the long run to recognize the basic character traits of counter-productive managers, exquisitely demonstrated in the erudite, 'Management By Vice'. And once they have been up-rooted, then turn to Peter Drucker's advice. For, unless negative practices and those who support such beahvior are removed first, there can be no bright future and 'Managing in the Next Society' will be nothing short of a real mess!

We were looking for a place to grab a pizza and ended up ordering from here. The pizza was good and the wings were even better. I asked for the wings well done and they were cooked to perfection. I would return.
Pizza was good but, the wait time was long. We had plenty of time to shop while our pizza was cooking.
The one thing that made me give that place a 4 star review rather than a 5 is that the atmosphere was really really weak and kinda killed the feel for the whole experience.
All six of us did not enjoy our pizza. It was soggy, soft, undercooked, greasy, and cold. My 7 year old referred to it as "the worst pizza in the world." We had a good laugh... but sadly agreed. Our $40 meal was a waste and we will never return.
The staff is friendly and the food is great. Pizza and wing specials as well as subs and a few other items. We were told our order would be ready in 20 minutes and it was. Would return to this restaurant again.
I must have caught the staff on a really bad day... Everyone in this place was rude, short and snappy. The pizzas were mediocre, made with average dough and not so fresh toppings. I tried to change something in my order, and had to deal with a very nasty manager who showed no customer service skills. Maybe the made to...
Being from Long Island, I'm a pizza snob. But as far as "upstate pizza" goes it's not bad! I grabb a slice very year when I'm in town
Fed a hungry group of five (including three teenage boys), and was surprisingly good. Friendly service from a nice family pizzeria.
I just returned from the Adirondacks. For lunch at our friend's rental home, I stopped by Adirondack Pizza and ordered two large pizzas and waited for them. One half cheese/half pepperoni and one white w/broccoli pizza. The young lady that took my order was friendly and efficient. It took about 20-25 minutes for our pizza to be ready. Everyone enjoyed...
Called and ordered a pizza like we normally do here. They always tell you 25 minutes over the phone, and unlike most places, when you show up in 25 minutes, it's popping out of the oven! Hot, fresh, and delicious. Definitely a staple on our Old Forge Trips

Madhuri Dixit Nene lost her father Shankar Dixit this morning to a prolonged disease.
A day before he passed away, the doctors treating the actress's father had informed the family about his deteriorating health.
Madhuri is currently shooting for the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, but after the sudden demise of her father, she would not be able to continue shooting for the finale episode.
A source from the show says, "We were to shoot today also, but it has been called off keeping in mind Madhuri's loss. Half the portion of the finale episode has already been shot and Madhuri may not be there to shoot for the remaining half."

Julie's coffee selections are top-notch. There are always several breakfast/brunch specials to choose from (various combinations of eggs, meats, veggies, cheese, and breads). Seating is spacious and comfortable.
Had breakfast twice there- both were super- friendly staff, remembered us from morning before- great advice on where to visit for waterfalls- fun was had- thanks. For sure try out-
I stopped by to grab some coffee and catch up on some work and was kicked out, a coffee shop that closes at 3pm?? Next time I'll just go to Starbucks.
Best cappuccino ever...clean and friendly a nice place even bought some jewelry. ....in a great area not much street parking
My wife and I wanted something Sunday morning and had passed Julie's several times. We decided to try it. Wow good food and service. What a great way to start a Sunday morning.
I had a closing in the building where Julie's is located and finally had the chance to try their coffee (they are not on my way to work.) Excellent coffee and very nice people. Would try it again if they had either later hours or more hours on the weekend.
Calm, relaxing atmosphere with a variety of artrists works, located in a quiet downtown area across from county court house. Good coffee and a staff that will provide a breakfast or lunch to meet your desires. The staff is friendly and very skilled at providing service to meet your desires.
This is my wife's favorite place to start the day.
When dining in Wegmans supermarket or the local Perkins just isn't right, head into town to Julie's Coffee. We sampled the soup and 1/2 sandwich special--a seafood bisque and BLT combo to die for. While none of us had coffee, the chai tea and hot chocolate were very hot and very tasty.
We were in Williamsport taking my son to camp for a week. Julies was the only breakfast place that was open on a Sunday morning. The restaurant was very clean. We ordered and my first complaint was the fridge was behind the counter so you could not see all the selections of beverages. So after I realized they had grapefruit...
Food is ok but a little expensive for what they offer. Great coffee.

If you aren't getting dirty when you're out riding your bike, you aren't doing it right. But if you can't see because you're too dirty, you're not wearing the right goggles. Everyone from the casual trail rider to the motocross superstar knows how important goggles are. They keep dust out of your eyes. They keep the rain away. Some even have tear-offs that make it easy to get rid of any dirt that has accumulated on them while riding.
The goggles we carry come with a variety of features. Of course, since you'll be wearing them for hours on end, comfort is key. We have goggles that are engineered to fit nicely over your helmet and snuggly against your face. Breathability is also important. Dirt bikes require a lot of effort, and that translates into sweat. But with the right goggles, you'll keep it down to a minimum. Some goggles also come with additional features such as anti-fogging properties for chilly riding. Some even fit right over prescription glasses.
With brands like Spy, 100%, Oakley, Thor, Dragon, Scott, Smith and many others, you know that quality is the name of the game when you shop at Rocky Mountain ATV/MC. Even though we carry hundreds of choices, every single one of them is a quality product that will serve you well on the track or trail. When you shop with us, all you have to worry about is what color scheme and design will best match your existing gear. Browse our selection and pick up a new pair of goggles today!
