Thailand should select an interim PM to serve till new polls can be held: Abhisit
Published on Feb 19, 2014 10:34 PM
Thailand's opposition leader Abhisit Vejjajiva offered on Wednesday what he believes to be the only way out of the country's political stalemate: Pick an interim prime minister who is acceptable to all stakeholders and who will serve for a preset limited term until new elections can be called.
Allowing the current stalemate and war of attrition to drag on would damage the country and increase the risk of violence, Mr Abhisit told a group of foreign journalists in Bangkok.
He called the Feb 2 general election, which his Democrat Party boycotted, "a sham". The election could not be completed because anti-government protesters prevented voters in some constituencies from casting their ballot. Their actions also led many people to stay home on election day.
"This whole crisis results from loss of trust in the political process. We need a neutral figure to manage the transition to an election," Mr Abhisit said.

"Great idea for favor size boxes, treat bags, candy buffet labels. Going to order more for other ideas for my daughters shower."
"Looks exactly at the picture. Very nice quality paper and picture. Delivered just a few days after I ordered it! Will try the other products too!"
"Tiny Prints helped me get the gift tag stickers I really wanted: Two words printed in a larger Portenia font so guests could read them easier, and on the same line of text. Perfect. Thank you, Tiny Prints!!! Potential buyers: Yes, these are stickers. If you really want to make them into non-stick tags, just back them with card stock and punch a hole through then use ribbon."
"These are the perfect touch for sealing a card, a goodie bag, or making custom labels for different party favors. The only complaint is a minor one of the ink quality...just a tad lighter than the picture online (almost like I printed them myself) I had debated wether or not they were worth it, needless to say, I will definitely add these to all my future orders! Bonus: I received my order nearly a week earlier than expected."
"I used these tags on the goodie bags for my daughter's 4th birthday party. They were so cute and really went well with the chic pink cowgirl theme. Thanks, pardner!"

ABA Accredited Online Law School
ABA accredited online law schools for obtaining an online law degree do not yet exist. ABA approved online law schools don't exist yet because the ABA Standards for the Approval of Law Schools currently do not allow for an online law school Juris Doctor degree program. ABA online law school Standard 306 allows an ABA approved law school to award up to 12 credits toward the JD degree for distance education courses, but does not set any guidelines or standards for online law schools for receiving an online law degree. ABA accredited law schools can only grant four credits a semester and students can't take online law school classes in their first year of law school.
The State Bar of California allows online law schools, in order to provide alternative students an opportunity to receive a legal education. One online law school that provides this opportunity for an online law degree is the California School of Law.
In reviewing ABA accredited online law schools standards, including "Standard 306," which applies to online law schools and receiving an online law degree. Bucky Askew, the ABA's staff consultant on legal education, predicts that the ABA will, indeed, broaden its standards for online law schools when it addresses the issue next year.
The ABA reviews its standards for ABA accredited online law schools every five years. Up until 2000, it did not allow any distance education credits to be part of a law degree, says Askew. Then the ABA began allowing traditional law schools to offer a few online courses. "My guess is they decided to start slowly to permit schools to do this on a fairly limited basis and see how it goes," says Askew.
"There's growing comfort with online education as a useful and meaningful method of offering a part of the law school curriculum," he says. "[But], for a high quality program, you have to have students together because so much of learning happens in that interaction in the classroom space."
ABA Accredited Online Law School
More than 100,000 people apply annually for 45,000 open seats at ABA-accredited law schools. Average cost of law school is upwards of $50,000 to $150,000 for a degree, depending whether a school is public or private.
The California School of Law provides a online law school experience similar to that at ABA accredited law schools. At the California School of Law the virtual classes meet each week on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, with students and professors participating in a live video conference in which they discuss and debate the law, as if they were physically in the same room. In class, students and professors utilize the traditional Socratic Method of legal education used at prestigious residential law schools.
In conclusion, the ABA continues to remain behind the technological curve when it comes to ABA accredited online law schools and the technology to facilitate legal education. Online law schools provide students with access to a law degree, which they may have never been able to obtain due to outrageous tuition at traditional brick and mortar law schools and the additional costs associated with relocation. Luckily, for this new generation of law students, schools like the California School of Law are utilizing technology without sacrificing the benefits of traditional legal pedagogy.

Malabon cracks down on 'botcha'
Just less than two weeks before families sit down to noche buena or the Christmas Eve feast, the Malabon government has tightened its watch against botcha or "hot" meat to prevent it from being sold in the city.
Mayor Antolin Oreta III has ordered the city police, members of the Mayor's Complaints and Action Team and the city health office to be always on the lookout for traders selling meat unfit for human consumption in public markets and tiangge (flea markets).
At the same time, he directed the local agency running the city public market to coordinate with authorities for the seizure of botcha and the arrest of unscrupulous vendors caught selling it.
Oreta explained that with the holiday season in full swing, people would be looking for bargains but they could end up unknowingly buying botcha or meat taken from dead or slaughtered diseased animals.
"As Christmas and New Year get closer, people will buy meat sold at low prices, not knowing that these are already unfit for human consumption," he said in a statement.
"We don't want people getting sick because of botcha. We have to ban botcha traders in the city and we will file charges against those who are caught selling their 'double-dead' meat here in Malabon," he added.
Oreta also urged barangay leaders and even ordinary citizens to report traders selling botcha in their communities.
He made the statement after local authorities seized 40 kilos of spoiled meat from a dealer in Barangay Catmon, Malabon, over the weekend.
The Malabon police have already filed charges of violation of the Meat Inspection Code of the Philippines against the trader.
Should he be found guilty, he could be jailed for two to six months and fined between P1,000 to P10,000.
Dr. Rommel Lizan, head of the Malabon City Health Office, said in the same statement that eating spoiled meat could make one feel dizzy and lead to diarrhea. He added that it could also result in poisoning or worse, death.

By Peter Rutherford
LONDON (Reuters) - The more things change in the world of Olympic archery the more they stay the same. South Korea adapted to the London Games' new format, put the new world number ones from India and America in their place and won three gold medals. Same old story.
The only shock of the archery event was that South Korea did not sweep all golds - their men stumbled in the team semi-finals and Italy snuck in to snatch the title.
South Korea's women continued their remarkable dominance of the sport by winning their seventh consecutive team gold medal, or all of them since the team event was introduced at the 1988 Games in Seoul.
Korean women have garnered 14 of the 15 team and individual archery gold medals contested since 1984, making them perhaps the greatest Olympic women's team of all time.
Ki Bo-bae is likely to have faced more pressure than any of her predecessors, however, as the 24-year-old only took individual gold after a nerve-wracking single arrow shoot-off against Mexican Aida Roman.
Ki brought gasps from the crowd when she leaked her shot outside the bulls-eye for an eight, leaving Roman needing a nine or 10 to win. The Mexican loosed her arrow to the target 70 meters away, also landing in the red rings for an eight, but Ki's arrow was adjudged closer to the centre and the Koreans erupted in celebration.
"Actually I didn't see Aida's arrow because I was praying so hard," said Ki.
The Korean men's team broke two 72-arrow world records in the ranking round, but failed to take what would have been their fourth consecutive team title after losing to the United States in the semi-finals, with Italy grabbing a shock gold.
Team captain Oh Jin-hyek, saddled with the unfortunate nickname of 'Soft Drink Pig' for his love of Coke, went on to become the first Korean to win the men's individual title with his single arrow shootoff victory over Japan's Takaharu Furukawa.
"This is a turning point in Korea's archery," Korea's head coach Jang Young-sool said of Oh's individual victory, though with their dominance of the team event it is hard to imagine how much better things can get for the Koreans.
South Korean coaching guru Lee Ki-sik has worked wonders with U.S. archery, making him the world's most sought after coach after also improving the Australian team since leaving the mighty Koreans.
But defeat for U.S. world number one Brady Ellison in the second round showed Lee still has some work to do, despite lifting the men's team to top of the world rankings and honing Ellison's natural talent to put him top of the heap too.
Korea's success and that of coach Lee has prompted other countries to try to get some of the archery magic dust by hiring South Korean coaches - even from different sports.
"It's unbelievable," said USA Archery's Dan Rabska. "I won't mention any team names but they are horrific as far as technique is concerned, with no understanding of the biomechanics of archery.
"It was like: 'We need a Korean coach. Hey, there's someone looking for a job from wrestling. Fantastic, we got a Korean coach!"
Rabska said none of those teams had qualified for London.
The World archery federation could not have asked for a better Olympic tournament, with the iconic venue of Lord's cricket ground adding to the sense of occasion. They will hope to recreate the same electric atmosphere at the Sambadrome in Rio in four years' time.

THEATER REVIEW: Sharp, dazzling 'Scottsboro Boys' deftly handles dark subject
A hearty toast to The Old Globe for giving San Diego the first West Coast production of "The Scottsboro Boys." Boldly mixing tones, this last musical by the fabled songwriting team of John Kander and Fred Ebb reframes a long, dark episode in the history of American racism as high-spirited entertainment.
And the glory of the show ---- directed and choreographed with brilliant variety and verve by Susan Stroman ---- is that it works so well on so many levels. Like the composer and lyricist's "Cabaret" and "Chicago," though in more morally challenging ways, "The Scottsboro Boys" asks audiences to be entertained, even laugh at grim stereotypes of black Americans, while simultaneously feeling sympathy for the men whose lives these minstrels depict.
And along the way, in about 95 intermissionless minutes, "Scottsboro" efficiently tells the real life story that inspired the show. We see nine young black men riding the rails, looking for work or adventure in 1931, when they're pulled off a Memphis-bound freight train, arrested and imprisoned. Falsely accused of raping two white women (whom the male actors also impersonate), the men are found guilty and spend years in prison as their case echoes through the court system.
With Stroman at the helm and writer David Thompson as librettist, "The Scottsboro Boys" had an off-Broadway run, a well-received staging at the Guthrie Theatre in Minneapolis and opened on Broadway in 2010. Reviews were respectful, if reserved, and the show flopped at the box office, even though it earned 12 Tony nominations.
So, despite the award-winning pedigrees of the "Scottsboro" collaborators, the Globe took a calculated risk in staging the piece (a co-production with San Francisco's American Conservatory Theatre). How big, after all, is the segment of the theatergoing public that wants to be reminded of a national shame?
For the local show, Stroman assembled a multitalented 13-member, no-star ensemble that smoothly takes on three times as many roles, including those floozies who accuse "the boys." Even when one of these street-walking flower-of-the-South ladies recants, the trials continue and she becomes a minor-league celebrity.
All the actors are good, and the dancing, which updates minstrel-era moves like the march, cakewalk, walk-around, tap and shingle dancing, is terrific and delivered with cringe-inducing, wide-mouthed minstrel smiles.
Music director and conductor Eric Ebbenga's nine-member orchestra brings plenty of razzle-dazzle to Kander's ragtime and jazz-infused score. Designers Jon Weston (sound) and Ken Billington (lighting) add apt effects ---- including the gruesome sizzle in a nightmare sequence about the Alabama electric chair. "Scottsboro" is that sort of show, zigzagging from eccentric comedy to heartstopping drama in a discomfiting rhythm that in lesser hands might prove dizzying.
Big roles go to the emcee and endmen for the minstrel troupe. The genial Interlocutor is played pitch-perfect by Ron Holgate, the only white member of the cast; he's a good 'ol Southern boy, shocked that the guys don't want to sing the old tales of shiftless, happy slaves on the plantation. As the endmen, Jared Joseph plays Mr. Bones and many other roles, while JC Montgomery morphs from Mr. Tambo into lawyer Samuel Leibowitz, a New York Jew who gets it from all sides in the Deep South. Both Joseph and Montgomery have solo moments in which their true and impressive voices soar beyond the show's caricatures and burlesque.

On a windy Monday at the Sedalia Country Club, the Smith-Cotton boys golf team opened the season with a fourth-place showing in a four-team event.
Warrensburg took first with a 165. Jefferson City's 171 was good for second, Harrisonville was third with a 174 and Smith-Cotton carded a 185.
Three golfers shared individual honors as Harrisonville's Ronny Baker, Jefferson City's Andrew Hansen and Warrensburg's Bailey Woods each shot a 3-over 38. Taylor Mankin was Smith-Cotton's top individual with a 41 to claim fifth place.
Mankin opened his round with a pair of bogeys and a double before getting par on the par-3 fourth and the par-5 fifth.
"With the aerated greens and the wind, I'm just happy I didn't play bogey golf," he said.
The greens caused problems for quite a few golfers. Mankin said there was little consistency from green to green.
"I would have to either hit it really hard or just let it trickle in, and I didn't know which was which at times," he said. "You just had to guess. I wasn't putting with skill. It was mostly luck."
Sometimes that luck came from other golfers. On the ninth hole, Mankin's approach was on the green about 15 feet past the hole. In the same group, Baker landed his approach beyond the green. Mankin jokingly told Baker to chip in from there to allow Mankin to get a better read of the green, and Baker did just that rattling in his chip shot.
"It was easier to see the line," Mankin said. "With the sand, the line is kind of hidden for some putts. On the last hole, I told (Baker) to just chip it in and he did. I knew which way it broke and I just didn't hit it correctly."
Mankin two-putted that hole for a par-5.
Though his putter was causing him problems, Mankin was having better luck with his driver.
"I didn't shank any, I didn't pull any and I hit a lot of fairways," he said. "That's all I can really ask for. I usually don't pull out driver on No. 8, but I was hitting it good so I decided to just go for it and I put it in a perfect spot."
Tied for sixth with a 42 was Smith-Cotton's Alex Lorenz who struggled with the putter, three-putting four different holes and missed several putts inside of 5 feet.
"From the beginning I wasn't comfortable with the short putts," he said.
Lorenz bogeyed the first three holes, then doubled the fourth before carding a par on the fifth. He followed that up with pars on six and seven before bogeys on the final two holes. He narrowly missed a par putt on the ninth after putting his tee shot on the par-5 hole in the rough. His next shot landed him back in the fairway 200 yards out and his third landed just short of the green.
Windy conditions caused some challenges to his game.
"I kept my drives down low," he said.
Jacob Carroll shot a 47. Ryan Lefevers shot a 55 and Wyatt Foster carded a 56.

Felix Hernandez won't make another start this season
Sep 30, 2010, 7:38 PM EDT
Mariners ace Felix Hernandez vowed to the fans in Seattle last week that he would start the club's regular season finale on Sunday against the A's. Fortunately or unfortunately, it appears that M's management has intervened.
Ryan Divish of the Tacoma News Tribune reports that Hernandez will not make another start this season, presumably because of a high innings total.
King Felix, 24, turned in a stellar 2.27 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 232 strikeouts in 249 2/3 frames this season but was held to a 13-12 record because of a historically anemic Mariners offense. We're hoping that it doesn't cost him the American League Cy Young Award, because he truly has been the best all-around pitcher on that side of baseball this season.
Have your own thoughts on the matter? You can still weigh in here.
- Ditto65 - Sep 30, 2010 at 8:01 PM
Can't handle a high inning count and wants to be Cy Young? (Please realize I have no problem w/ King Felix as Cy)
- unfrozen caveman - Sep 30, 2010 at 8:09 PM
he's pitched far more innings the CC and any of the others in the Cy Young running. Upwards of 5 more 9 inning games than some.
And, another win would do what for the Mariners? Start his off season now – see Kerry Young, Strassburg and countless other young arms run ragged early and too long.
- Ditto65 - Sep 30, 2010 at 8:28 PM
Do you not get that I was not serious? It was tongue in cheek, for the love of Pete!
- Giant Space Ants - Sep 30, 2010 at 9:00 PM
Yeah right. Like I'll believe you over the guy who came up with the names "Kerry Young" and "Strassburg". And I don't know who this "Pete" character is, but he certainly doesn't deserve the Cy Young either!
- Ditto65 - Sep 30, 2010 at 9:05 PM
Have you seen Pete's numbers?
- easports82 - Sep 30, 2010 at 9:19 PM
Yeah. Pete can hold a candle to Kenny Powers.

Kevin Millwood for Cy Young!
- The Real Shuxion - Oct 1, 2010 at 10:04 AM
Kyle Davies owns Kevin Millwood.
- CPinCT - Oct 1, 2010 at 11:09 AM
Smart move by Seattle to attempt to preserve the impressions made in his final appearance…..Felix is a great pitcher, and should have won the CY last season…when he had the wins to go along with the rest of the numbers to support the crowning. But with so many AL pitchers being in this years running (Sabathia, Price, Lester), the votes will be split up so maybe it goes to Felix since other than wins, his numbers are great.
Personally, I would like to see him get the recognition.

Be very careful, the water can start off scolding hot!
I would suggest adding a mixing valve to add cold water and adding a more even temp. and longer run time.
I ran the hot water to a hand held sink type spray head I keep coiled up in the Port Lazarette. Can also be used to wash down the cockpit. Or two birds with one stone.
What this plan does not point out is a 2 1/2" to 3/4" reducer on both ends.
And that would be my rebuilt Graymarine Sea Scoot 91 engine in that pic. Did that myself. Love to keep the original if possible.
Put another one of those on it and run engine coolant through it - your engine will love you for it.
I, myself, personally intend to continue being outspoken and opinionated, intolerant of all fanatics, fools and ignoramuses, deeply suspicious of all those who have "found the answer" and on my bad days, downright rude.

Is a 1996 bmw r1100gs to old?

That era BMW's were very well put together. Many of the fitting like stainless clamps and other details are superior to newer models. The R1100GS engine is delightful power-plant, with great low end grunt and superior engine braking to the R1150. It also has a cable clutch which is good maintenance wise and will make your fingers stronger. Much heavier to pull than the hydraulic clutch, but you get used to it fast.
Areas of concern on that model is periodic spline lube, the original M94 transmission had some problems on certain bikes, upgrading to M97 specs is a common fix. Though many bikes like mine with 90k miles still have the original M94 and have no problems. Rewiring or replacing the hes sensor is likely necessary if it hasn't already been done.
In Australia there was a rash of broke transmission mounts and TT made the "hard part" fix If you plan to ride it hard heavily loaded in the outback that's a good idea to do the fix. American bikes which spent most of their lives on smooth road did not break often.
Wear items like brakes and shocks run into a fair amount of money, if you're on a tight budget keep those in mind. The stock seat pretty much sucks so bear that in mind also.
Once all the little particularities of that model have been sorted it makes for a very reliable, economical and pleasant bike to ride.
The best deals would be on a well cared for higher mileage bike where the previous owner has already sorted out all the little stuff.

There is no God; People created gods to fullfill a deep need for justice and hope. This can be a good thing but everyone needs to remember that if there is justice in the world it is because people are just. Saying a prayer is an awful way to do something. If you want to do good send a dollar or give a helping hand. Praying may make you feel good but it doesn''t help anyone. saying a happy greeting to fellow humans is a great thing,we should do it everyday. People working together can make this world a better place. Fashion with gods is constantly changing I remember growing up in a fire and brimstone baptist church. God loved me but was waiting for me to screw up so that he could send me to hell. Now god is a sugar daddy that will provide all of my worldly needs. In past cultures like the Mayans god demanded human blood. thankfully the christian god only demanded animal sacrifices. Who knows what style of god will be popular in a few years. Hopefully god as a sugar daddy will stay popular. Hanging by a spider''s silk above a everlasting pit of fire is not my concept of a loving god. Isn''t it ironic that god created us imperfect so that he could punish us for our imperfections?? A loving god would create us as perfect creatures in a garden of eden where we could live in peace and happiness...right?? Exactly why would a loving god create sin??? My questions are endless!!!

Ti 70 Mid is a low powered racquet - Since the head is a mear 88 inch - any mishit means a dead ball; it demands your attention. Once you get used to it - its a very fun racquet, especially when you find the sweet spot. Its pretty stable,, but adding some lead (3 / 9 on the head)would make it even better (thats on my list). The Dense string pattern offers great control - I am very statified on this category. What I need is abit more lively feel like the other Yonex I play with - this points me to the tension of the string. My regret is that I strung it way too low for my liking - I read in TW forum, every is recommending that I strung it in the lower 50s. It's currently strung at 50 on Main and 52 at the Cross. I plan to restring it again next time to 55(main) / 57 ( Cross). I think there is yet more to be discover what this tiny fire ferrari can do. The proj is not over .....
Ti 70 Long - definitely would recommend adding lead on the 3 / 9 on the head which help stablized the racquet.

The exhibition runs through April 1, in the Richards Gallery.The sculptures are quite beautiful, Museum curator Darren Baker said. Their elegant design and construction combine with their reflective interplay of light as if they are airy, geometry-based root networks made of ice.Young an art professor and head of the glass department at the Cleveland Institute of Art studied glass, ceramics and engineering in California before earning his MFA at Alfred University in New York in 1973. His work is in prominent private and public collections around the globe, from the Art Institute of Chicago to the Niijima Contemporary Art Museum in Tokyo, the Smithsonians Renwick Gallery to the Contemporary Glass Museum in Madrid, Spain. Honors have included purchase prizes, awards for teaching, research fellowships and a $20,000 Creative Workforce Fellowship from Cuyahoga Countys Community Partnership for Arts and Culture.Young will be at the museum at noon on Friday, March 4, for a lunchtime discussion about the inspiration and process underlying his sculpture.

Apple iPhone 4 vs. Nintendo 3DS
I know, I know, neither of them are out yet, but this is a rumor and speculation site. Hence the name Mac Rumors. Anyway, here are the specs. Add as you wish.
Winner: Apple iPhone 4.
The iPhone has a higher resolution screen, and it's covered in extremely durable helicopter-windshield-like glass on both sides. Personally I think 3D is a gimmick and I've heard that many people get nauseous after using it for extended periods, which is exactly why they've put a slider on the 3DS (see below), because you'll probably be turning it down/off after a while. I love the premise, but I think it will be underdeveloped by 3rd parties, like everything else Nintendo makes. All of Nintendo's 1st party stuff will rock per usual. The 3DS is much more portable than its predecessor, but it's almost twice as heavy as the iPhone 4.
Winner: Apple iPhone 4.
Both devices are swimming with cutting-edge technology from touch screens to 3D displays. The iPhone edges the 3DS out by adding more sensors and higher quality components, but the premise of taking 3D photos and videos is very intriguing. The monthly cellular and data fees coupled with having to deal with AT&T's sub-par services doesn't help Apple's case though, and traditional games are easier to play with traditional control schemes, like analog nubs and buttons. Apple's got the edge in price and distribution though, as Nintendo still lags behind in this department (The DS Shop Channel is not iTunes by a long shot.), not to mention that Apple's device is far more versatile with its ability to watch movies, listen to music, surf the web, and access over 225,000 apps and counting, although the Nintendo 3DS could catch up somewhat. I personally think it will be too little, too late, as it is not scheduled to be released until the Spring of 2011. That gives Apple an 8-month head start.
Winner: Apple iPhone 4.
While Nintendo definitely has the upper-hand in the IP department with titles like Kid Icarus and Mario Kart, I'm surprised at how many big name developer are porting and at times creating new IPs for Apple's iOS devices. Square Enix, Capcom, and a whole slew of other big name developers are on board with Apple.
If you don't like Apple and its policies, then don't buy its products. It's as simple as that! In the meantime, I'll be enjoying my cutting-edge technology and getting things done.
|Jun 16, 2010, 07:29 PM
Because a gaming system and a cell phone are two things that should be compared.
|Jun 16, 2010, 07:31 PM
Why are you even comparing a DS and an iPhone? They have two entirely different purposes. Plus, your opinion is totally biased.
2.6 GHz 8GB RAM 512GB HD Retina MacBook Pro. 64GB LTE iPad air. 64GB iPhone 6
|Jun 16, 2010, 07:32 PM
Apple has has positioned the iPhone as a gaming platform. Just look at them adding the gyro, guitar hero, gaming center (or what ever its called), touting how many games are available for it, vs. The nintendo.
No, apple has marketed the iPhone as a gaming platform, so a comparison is definitely fair.
Personally I use a phone to well this may sound crazy but to call people So i'm not the best example on this
~Mike Flynn
|Jun 16, 2010, 07:39 PM
Why would the cellular network and monthly fee have anything to do with a comparison between a cell phone and a gaming device? Obviously the gaming device will not have those things...
|Jun 16, 2010, 07:45 PM
That was dumb, sorry.
Neither product is released as you said but if you wanted to appear unbiased you should have left the ridiculous claims of "Winner" out of there. Can you honestly claim to know which one will be more fun to play games on based purely on technical specifications? No, you can't.
I like playing the occasional games on my iPhone. It's good for fun little time wasters while I'm waiting for a train. However have you tried to play any sort of in-depth game on it? GTA China town Wars comes to mind. It's a terrible experience in my opinion. The screen is just too small to sport any buttons on the screen. The lack of feedback that physical buttons provide is a huge negative, when you're playing you simply don't know where the "buttons" on the screen are. All that equals to me playing some games on the iPhone and others on my DS. Both has strengths and weaknesses in different game types.
Will the 3DS fail miserably? Probably not. However, even prefacing your entire post as speculation doesn't save it from being utterly ridiculous.
|Jun 16, 2010, 07:49 PM
the new 3Ds is ugly tho but i still would want to see one just to see the 3d.

|Jun 16, 2010, 07:51 PM
Wow, you're totally right!!! Hey, can you compare my MBP to my PS3 next? Or how about my iPod to my Wii? I'm clearly not as clever as you and am having some difficulties coming up with talking points like you did.

|Jun 16, 2010, 09:21 PM
I lol'd, didn't read, and really hope you didn't go through the fuss of typing all that yourself?
The two devices are completely different and should not be compared.
Yes, Apple has made a small, mini appearance at E3 because of the progression of gaming on a platform.
That being said, the 3DS is getting a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time which is full of win

How are these even comparable? I'll be honest, I stopped using my DS Lite a few months after the App store started up. I can't remember the last time I even charged it up. I may or may not buy a DS 3D but owning an iPhone or iPad will not be a factor.

If the 3DS is even remotely as good as the current DSi, it will kick the living **** outa the iPhone 4, and whatever Touch is released next. It won't even be close. I love gaming on my Touch and soon to be iPhone 4 (Canabalt, Homerun Derby, Wordflick, Blackjack Run etc etc), but they don't compare at all to games that can be played with these old timey things called BUTTONS. A faux analog controller on a piece of glass is not a replacement for an actual stick or dpad, sorry. But that said, my iPhone and my 3DS will complement each other nicely. I don't intend to bring my DS with me everywhere, but my iPhone will be, so I'll definitely do gaming on that as well. Just different kinds of games. And with the rate that ATT drops calls, my DS is almost just as good of a phone as my iPhone has ever been.
|Jun 16, 2010, 10:22 PM
I'd like to preface this by acknowledging it's a bad idea, but I think it'd be cool to put a 3D display in the iPhone 5. Just because.
|Jun 16, 2010, 10:54 PM
Intense gaming on the iphone sux, period. Casual games on the iphone rule.
At the end of the day, an actual controller is a million times better than touching a screen and not knowing/having the inputs register correctly.
|Jun 16, 2010, 11:00 PM
|Jun 17, 2010, 01:15 AM
Personally I don't agree with comparing the two, makes no sense as they are two very different platforms.
However, I just got back from E3 and had hands on time with the 3ds and can say that nintendo pulled it off! The 3d looks great! You have to be right in front of the screen to see it and it can be shut off but I'm impressed. The 3d is not in your face 3d but rather something similar to a pop up book. The Mario demo I saw looked great like this.
|Aug 30, 2010, 05:11 AM
Why do people say this isn't a good comparison? Open yours eyes people, they're both gaming devices. Sure iPhone does more, but many people are buying iPhones for the apps. Apple has done a lot to brand their system as a gaming device, and they've sold many units for this reason. The guys just giving his opinion.

LMAO! Comparing a product to another that doesn't exist yet. Now I've seen it all.
But wait, surprise! The iPhone wins! Oh man, that was such a shocker.
|Aug 30, 2010, 05:48 AM
iPhone games simply don't match up with those that Nintendo offers.
There's no competition IMO - the DS (or a PSP for that matter) is a much better gaming device.

National League Preview from The Sports Network
Friday, June 21st (All times Eastern)
New York Mets (28-41) at Philadelphia Phillies (35-38), 7:05 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: New York - Jeremy Hefner (1-6, 3.96) Philadelphia - Cole Hamels (2-10, 4.40)
(Sports Network) - The Philadelphia Phillies have a good shot at bouncing back into the win column when they open a three-game series Friday versus the NL East-rival New York Mets at Citizens Bank Park.
The Phillies have won five of six matchups with the Mets this season and are 9-1 in the last 10 meetings between the clubs.
Philadelphia had won two straight and four of six games overall, but was denied a three-game sweep of the visiting Washington Nationals with Wednesday's 6-2 loss in 11 innings. Ian Desmond delivered a huge blow with a grand slam in the top of the 11th inning off Phillies reliever Michael Stutes.
"He came back with a slider. The ball was down and Desmond hit it out," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.
Michael Young hit a two-run homer in the first inning and Kyle Kendrick pitched well in the no-decision, as he allowed one run in 7 2/3 innings. Ben Revere extended his hitting streak to 10 games.
Cole Hamels will take the mound for the Phillies in search of his third win of the season and is 2-10 with a 4.40 earned run average in 15 starts. Hamels lost his last time out in a 5-2 setback at Colorado on Sunday and gave up three runs in seven innings. Hamels beat the Mets back on April 28 and is only 6-10 with a 4.20 ERA in 22 career starts against them.
The Mets have been playing better of late with four wins in the last six tries and are 3-2 so far on an 11-game road trip.
New York's three wins in the past five contests were against the NL East- leading Atlanta Braves. In Thursday's 4-3 win at Turner Field, pinch-hitter Josh Satin stroked a go-ahead double in the top of the seventh to keep the Mets ahead for good.
David Wright belted a pair of homers in his three-hit performance and Andrew Brown delivered a pinch-hit homer for the Mets. Jon Niese lasted just 3 1/3 innings because of shoulder discomfort and gave up three runs and eight hits, while LaTroy Hawkins tossed two scoreless innings of relief to pick up the win. Bobby Parnell closed the door on the Braves in the ninth for his 11th save.
"It's a lot more fun to win, no matter what position you're in," Wright said. "We've had our struggles in Atlanta, but we kicked it off with the doubleheader and we were able to take the rubber match."
Jeremy Hefner gets the nod for New York and is only 1-6 with a 3.96 ERA in 14 games (13 starts) this season. He last toed the rubber in Sunday's 4-3 win against the Chicago Cubs and gave up three runs -- one earned -- in five innings.
Hefner lost to the Phillies back on April 10 and is 1-2 with a 15.68 ERA in four games (3 starts) against them in his career.

Peter le Page Renouf
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (March 2012)
Sir Peter le Page Renouf (23 August 1822 – 14 October 1897), Egyptologist, was born in Guernsey.
He was educated at Elizabeth College there, and proceeded to Oxford, which, upon his becoming a Roman Catholic, under the influence of John Henry Newman, he quit without taking a degree as he was unable to subscribe to the Thirty Nine Articles as required in those days.[1]
Like many other Anglican converts, he proved a thorn in the side of the Ultramontane party in the Roman Church, though he did not, like some of them, return to the communion of the Church of England. He opposed the promulgation of the dogma of Papal Infallibility, and his treatise (1868) upon the condemnation of Pope Honorius for heresy by the council of Constantinople in AD 680 was placed upon the index of prohibited books.
He had been from 1855 to 1864 professor of ancient history and Oriental languages in the Roman Catholic university which Newman vainly strove to establish in Dublin, and during part of this period edited the Atlantis and the Home and Foreign Review, which latter had to be discontinued on account of the hostility of the Roman Catholic hierarchy.
Renouf was one of the defenders of Champollion and of his method of decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphics in England when he was being criticized unfairly by other scholars.
In 1864 he was appointed a government inspector of schools, which position he held until 1886, when his growing celebrity as an Egyptologist procured him the appointment of Keeper of Oriental Antiquities in the British Museum, in succession to Dr Samuel Birch. His understudy was E. A. Wallis Budge with whom he had an acrimonious relationship. He didn't want Budge to succeed him as keeper, through a perceived lack of social skills (Budge didn't come from a privileged background) and doubts about his abilities, objecting strongly to Budge being appointed as his successor and preferring Edouard Naville instead. Renouf was elected in 1887 president of the Society of Biblical Archaeology, to whose Proceedings he was a constant contributor.
Renouf was removed from his position as Keeper in the British Museum on reaching retirement age despite the signed opposition of twenty-five leading European Egyptologists of the day who wrote to the Prime Minister. Renouf gave excoriating evidence against Budge in court when the latter was found to have falsely accused Hormuzd Rassam of being corruptly involved in illicit trade of cuneiform tablets. Renouf continued to feel animosity towards Budge, accusing him of plagiarism and being a charlatan.[1]
The most important of his contributions to Egyptology are his Hibbert Lectures on The Religion of the Egyptians, delivered in 1879; and the translation of The Book of the Dead, with an ample commentary, published in the Transactions of the society over which he presided. He retired from the Museum under the superannuation rule in 1891 and was knighted for services to the British Museum in 1896.
He died in London on 14 October 1897. He married in 1857 Ludovica von Brentano, member of a well-known German literary family. His letters show unstinting praise for Renouf's scholarship from all the leading Egyptologists of his day.[1]

What is it?
The Vauxhall Zafira Tourer arrives to complement the current Zafira range rather than replace it. Like the old one, it is a compact MPV with three rows of cleverly-folding seats, but instead of aiming for the mass-selling mainstream, Vauxhall is going slightly upmarket with this one. That's why the old one remains on sale: it's a Zafira for those who find this new quasi-premium one too expensive.
Mind you, there's no doubting what the extra brings, for this Zafira Tourer is possibly the best-looking MPV out there, not to mention the most luxurious and upmarket Zafira there has ever been.
Behind the wheel reveals another big improvement brought by the Zafira Tourer: it is much better to drive than the old one. Even the standard model on 17-inch alloys does a surprisingly impressive job of softening the road surface.
The handling is not bad either though, with fair poise through corners and decent precision from far less rubbery steering. Vauxhall will even let you buy adaptive dampers, complete with Sport setting, if you want to make your Zafira Tourer even more agile. We wouldn't bother though, given how good the regular one is.
Ignore the cheapo 1.8-litre entry engine and choose the pricier 1.4-litre turbo instead. It has the same power and doesn't sound like it would be much fun, but the sweet and significantly torquier nature works surprisingly well. Of course, most Zafira Tourers will be diesels, and the familiar 2.0-litre CDTi is inoffensive: the standard one is a bit slow but Vauxhall's now fixed that with the punchy 195bhp BiTurbo.
On the inside
Here is where the Zafira Tourer really excels. The dash is all smooth surfaces with swishes of trim and really neat red lighting strips. It is much more upmarket than the old one – so long as you avoid the boggo ES trim, that is. As standard, it has seven seats which fold flat into the floor in a multitude of ways (and, unlike before, the middle seats are individual rather than a fixed bench).
The neat option is the Lounge Seating of more expensive variants: here, when the middle seat is flattened, two long armrests flip up from its edges like leathery wings. The outer two slide in and back by 5cm too: the result is more shoulder room and space to stretch out.
Prices mark a significant hike over the old model. They start at £21k, with the old model dropping to £18k. Despite this, we'd still advise sidestepping the basic ES trim and choosing Exclusiv instead. The ecoFlex stop-start diesel version will average an impressive 62.8mpg, making the £235 extra spend a no-brainer. Even the 1.4-litre will do nearly 45mpg.

My parking space is outdoors and under a tree. After six months I must say the HP car cover works like a dream. The custom fit is worth it! It keeps off the snow and ice buildup in the winter, and now in summer it keeps off dirt, sap, bird poo, and seeds. The elastic fits snugly on my front and back bumpers, but in summer winds the gust guard is a must (and also works great!). Best of all, it rolls up compact and can go in the wash. With practice, it only takes a couple minutes to get on or off.
Great cover for winter weather
Reviewed By Aleta S (Harwich, MA) Reviewed for a 2015 Chevy Impala —5/15/2015 6:21 AM
I just bought a new car & wanted to protect the finish from oak & pine pollen, which is like a yellow powder here in the northeast. Also, I wanted to protect the interior from the sun. The cover is a little too heavy to put on & off the car on a regular basis. It is very well made, and would have given 5 stars all around, but for the heaviness. Will use it occasionally this summer, but will save it mostly for winter weather, when I drive my truck instead.

photo: Will Ragozzino/Getty ImagesGoing through a divorce is never easy, but when you're one of rock's most enduring and revered power couples, playing it out in the public eye makes it even rougher. In late 2011, Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore of legendary alternative rock band Sonic Youth announced they were separating after 27 years of marriage. They largely remained quiet about the cause of the break up, until now.
Gordon revealed in an interview with Elle that their marriage dissolved as a result of an affair Moore was having with a woman who had once dated a band member and who collaborated with him on a literary project. "We seemed to have a normal relationship inside of a crazy world," Gordon said. "And in fact, it ended in a kind of normal way--midlife crisis, starstruck woman."
"We never got to the point where we could just get rid of her so I could decide what I wanted to do," she said. "Thurston was carrying on this whole double life with her. He was really like a lost soul."
Moore ended up moving out, and Gordon surrounded herself with friends and family during the difficult time, while also caring for their teenage daughter. She said things were just starting to look up when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Thankfully it was non-invasive, which Gordon said is "literally the best you can have." It was treated with a lumpectomy. But she couldn't help wondering, "What else is going to happen to me?"
Although the divorce has not yet been finalized and the couple is still settling their assets, Gordon said that they have each moved on with their lives. Not surprisingly, the rebellious rocker chick has been courted by several younger men. Meanwhile, she's been painting, starred in an ad campaign for Saint Laurent, and has been musically prolific, participating in various projects and performances with the likes of John Cale, Johnny Marr, and Black Francis.
