Motorola Defy
The Motorola Defy has just been outed and fortunately Pocket-lint were in attendance to give the phone the normal photographic treatment.
Set at a lower spec than the Milestone 2, also launched today, the Defy comes with a 3.7-inch display and a hardened body to withstand dust, water and scratches.
Relatively compact in the hand, the Defy's stepdown comes in the form of a lower spec processor clocked at 800MHz and video capture at 640 x 480 pixel resolution.
But you do get Android 2.1 and Motoblur, so you'll easily be able to keep track of social happenings from your networks and enjoy the freedoms of most of what Android has to offer.
Environmental resistance comes in the form of rubber flaps which plug into the micro-USB and 3.5mm headphone jack although we're not sure if they will stand the duration of your contract.
Networks are yet to be announced, but it is expected to land in Q4, in a choice of black or white, both pictured here.
Be sure to check out all the details in our news story.

Yankee Classic: The Champ Believer
- Login to add to Favorites
- 0 Comments
Joseph Zarzynski is convinced that something "definitely larger than a fish" really lives in Lake Champlain.
A Gargoyle rises from the waters of Lake Champlain — a head with hornlike protuberances on the end of a long snakelike neck that merges smoothly into the huge, humped body of the beast, just visible beneath the roiled surface of the lake. Joseph Zarzynski has been waiting and planning and hoping for this moment for ten years, for the opportunity to prove the existence of the animal he calls Champ, Belua aquatica champlainiensis, a living fossil. Now it is right in front of him, and he doesn't have his camera. He turns to run to the cabin for the camera. He cannot move. He is suspended — between the camera and the creature, between science and myth, evidence and faith. He wakes up.
The lesson of the dream to Zarzynski, or Zarr as he signs his letters and is known to his friends, is never to be out of reach of a camera while in sight of Lake Champlain. He had one around his neck last summer when I drove up to the cabin in Vergennes, Vermont, that he and his wife of three months, Pat Meaney, rented. He kept it with him while we explored the rocky shore in front of the cabin and swam in the clean water of the lake, still cold in the last few days of July. He brought it with us in the car when we visited local people who claim to have seen the creature. It lay on the table on the front porch, overlooking the lake, while we ate our meals. We did not face each other while we ate. We watched the lake.
Zarr and Pat have grown comfortable with this man-woman-monster triangle. It may seem like odd behavior for newlyweds, but they are hardly strangers to one another. They met in 1974. Pat is the librarian at Saratoga Springs Junior High School, where Zarr teaches social studies. From time to time during the eight years they worked together before going out socially, Zarr asked Pat to look things up for him — historic sightings of strange beasts in Lake Champlain or Loch Ness in Scotland. "I figured he would never take an interest in me because he was so obsessed with Champ," she recalls.
"Sometimes I become a little too obsessive about Champ," Zarr admits, "but I think Pat understands that without this I'd be a . . . " he pauses, searching for the word: " . . . a crank."
Zarzynski, 35 years old, a skeletal six-foot-five vegetarian and marathon runner (he has run the 28.5-mile road that goes the length of Loch Ness and is contemplating an attempt at the 109-mile length of Champlain), has become the leading authority on, investigator of, and recently, defender and spokesman for the large aquatic animals that may or may not live in Lake Champlain. He is the author of Champ: Beyond the Legend (Bannister Publications, 1984), founder of The Lake Champlain Phenomena Investigation, editor and publisher of Champ Channels, an irregular but entertaining newsletter detailing new sightings of Champ and such other lake monsters as Nessie in Scotland, Chessie in Chesapeake Bay, the skrimsl of Iceland, Shelly in Loch Sheldrake in New York, Ogopogo in Canada, and the mokele-mbembe in Africa.
In his book Zarzynski has cataloged more than 220 sightings of what he jokingly calls "USOs" (Unidentified Swimming Objects), dating back to a disputed reference to a 1609 encounter with the creature by Samuel de Champlain, for whom the lake is named. While some of the sightings are clearly whimsical ("About 50 feet long, flowing red mane, dinner-plate eyes, mooselike antlers, elephant ears"), a large majority seem to be describing the same sort of animal: a snakelike body 25 to 30 feet long with two or three humps showing above the waterline, black or dark brown, green or gray in color. The witnesses include sea captains, ministers, doctors, passengers aboard the Ticonderoga, a high school principal, a state trooper, and Walter Hard, the Vermont editor and historian who wrote that he and his wife "saw something out there that was definitely larger than any fish. It didn't fit the description of anything I'd seen or heard of before."
Then there were Anthony and Sandra Mansi, a Connecticut couple vacationing with Sandra's children in the St. Albans area in 1977. What they saw didn't vary much from the standard description — a beast that was 15 to 20 feet long with a head and neck sticking six to eight feet out of the water and smooth dark skin. What was remarkable about the Mansi sighting was that Sandra Mansi took a photograph of what they saw, a photograph that first appeared in The New York Times in 1981 and was subsequently tested by scientists for authenticity. Their conclusions: The photo was of a real object in the water with no doctoring of the picture. Whether the object was a living thing or some kind of construction could not be determined.
Once interested in schemes to net a living Champ, Zarzynski now encourages legislation to prevent harassment of the creatures. In 1980 he persuaded the Village of Port Henry, New York, to declare its adjoining waters off-limits to anyone seeking to harm or destroy lake monsters; by 1982 the State of New York had passed similar legislation, as had the Vermont House of Representatives. Zarr was looking for a sponsor in the Vermont Senate when we met (he's since found several). "I spend most of my time behind a typewriter or licking stamps," he explained, as we made ourselves comfortable in rocking chairs on the porch, facing the lake. "Last year I spent only 17 days on the lake. This year, I'm spending a month."

The Right2Know Marchers at The White House on October 16, 2011
Thank you to everyone who participated in this historic March!
The Right2Know Marchers on Pennsylvania Avenue on October 16, 2011
The Right2Know Marchers walking to The White House on October 16, 2011
A young Marcher holds up a sign questioning GMOs outside of The White House on October 16, 2011
Most Americans agree we have a right to know what's in our food, and a right to choose safe, healthy food for our families and ourselves. And yet 80% of the packaged foods in America contain Genetically Engineered ingredients that have not been proven safe, and are not labeled!
Between October 1st and October 16th of this year, Marchers from across the world walked over 300 miles from New York City to the White House, in Washington, DC, to demand labeling of all Genetically Engineered Foods in America, in what has come to be called the GMO Right2Know March.
Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) endanger our health, the environment, and our farmer's livelihoods. For too long, biotechnology companies like Monsanto have lobbied against labeling products containing their patented plants – plants which are specially designed to be sprayed with cancer-causing weed-killers, and plants which produce pesticides in every one of their cells. Without labels on GMO products, American consumers cannot make informed choices on the foods they are eating.
The GMO Right2Know March was the first of it's kind in America. The March received a substantial amount of press as we trekked across America's East Coast and many Marchers made videos along the way. Now that the Right2Know March is over we urge you to embark on a Virtual Right2Know March by signing the Just Label It! FDA Petition for GMO Labeling in America.

Are you in the US?
This topic is kind of worthless because it turns out she has multiple answers,
for example,
Are you dead? "You might be mistaking the future for the past"
Well we're trying to find the questions she responds to with a few examples to the questions, just like they did with Siri.

The newest iteration of our beloved Camaro is, to be kind, on the heavy side. And the quickest way to make it feel "lighter" is to up the car's power output. It's all about the power-to-weight ratio, which is why a 30hp go kart can feel scary fast and a 436hp '10 Camaro can feel, well, not fast enough. Once you have the epiphany that your Camaro needs more power, then the big question becomes, "How?" Well, one answer is forced induction. Slamming more atmosphere into your LS3, L99, or any engine, is the quickest way to boost output and ratchet up the fun factor of your Camaro.
Kenne Bell has been in the twin-screw supercharger business for over 20 years and they have a line of positive-displacement blower kits specifically designed to fit under the hood of GM's newest generation of Camaro. Their blowers come in 2.8L, 3.6L, and ginormous 4.2L variations, with the 2.8L being perfect for an otherwise stock Camaro.
The blower is a twin-screw arrangement and has very little parasitic loss; up to 100 hp less. This, along with their larger displacement, and uber-efficient 4x6 rotor profiles means more power is generated from each pound of boost, and after all, it's all about power. They can also churn out more boost (up to 15 pounds) before needing to move from a standard six-rib to a more expensive eight-rib belt system.
Actually, there's more to a blower than just the power output. According to Kenne Bell, their superchargers are whisper quiet with no gear growl, and the oil dipstick is far easier to deal with than the typical sight glass. Another key to the unit's performance is their "dual pass" intercooler and heat exchanger system. Again, cooler air equates to more power. See a theme developing here?
Superchargers such as this are termed "positive displacement" since compression happens within the blower. Instead of air being drawn in through the top like a typical Roots unit, it's drawn in through the inlet port and pushed into the engine along the axis of the rotors. The intake is positioned on the end of the two screws, which are designed to overlap but not touch, leaving a small gap or pocket. As the screws turn, the gap gets smaller. This compresses the air as it moves along the screws up to the point where it enters the intake. The rotors, instead of having nearly straight lobes, are twisted into a steep helix shape. Thanks to a vacuum-referenced bypass valve, the inlet pressure is equalized with the manifold pressure. This pretty much negates any parasitic loss while cruising and makes for a very efficient design.
As for the kit, it retails for $6,999 and comes complete including a Boost-A-Pump fuel system, 47lb injectors, billet fuel rails, Mammoth cold-air kit, and all the fittings and hardware needed. For another 300 bucks you can upgrade the blower to the liquid cooled version, which under severe high-boost conditions, can dramatically lower the temp of the oil in the blower, up to 200 degrees.
At over 190 pages and 500-plus images, they also have one of the most detailed instruction manuals we've come across. This is a good thing, since while the kit isn't hard to install, it does fall on the complicated side of the bell curve. As Jim Bell told us, "our primary goal with the standard 8-psi 2.8L Mammoth system was to offer a kit that would maximize airflow and horsepower so costly upgrades (supercharger, inlet system, MAF meter, manifolds, intercooler, etc.) were not necessary up to 1,000 hp. If you ever want more power, you simply need to buy the larger blower and bolt it on, the rest of the system is good to go."
So, let's take a quick look at how their system bolts under the hood of a fifth-gen Camaro.
1. Before the new stuff can start making loads of power, the stock stuff needs to vacate the area. First up is removing the stock airbox and engine cover. To say the instruction manual from Kenne Bell is "step-by-step" would be a huge understatement; it's 190 pages with well over 500 images. So, while the install is complicated, it's certainly doable for the average gearhead.
2. To get more room to work, the coolant was drained and the radiator and fan assembly were removed.
3. Blowers love to spin hard, which can actually cause the pressed-on crankshaft pulley to spin on the crank snout. This is bad. To remedy this, Kenne Bell provides a kit to pin them together. The first step was to install this jig. We then drilled two holes with the supplied bit and used a hammer to tap the pins into place.
4. After unhooking the fuel system and unplugging the wiring harness, we unbolted and removed the factory LS3 intake. With the intake gone, we used some tape to temporarily close off the intake ports on the heads.
5. In preparation for plumbing in the intercooler, we disconnected the heater hoses from the engine as well as where they go through the firewall.
6. The rear heater core hoses were modified using the supplied 90-degree bends. This will help them clear the blower assembly.
7. After pulling the driver-side black plastic inner wheelhouse, we removed the windshield washer reservoir tank to make room for the huge 4.5-inch intake system. Kenne Bell supplies a new washer bottle to take its place elsewhere in the engine bay.
8. Using a 10mm wrench, we removed the thermostat assembly and replaced it with a 180-degree version.
9. After removing the nose of the Camaro, we tackled installing the intercooler. The air dam was modified to allow for maximum flow and the lines were run back through to the intercooler pump (arrow).
10. Above the intercooler pump, we mounted and plumbed in the preassembled intercooler reservoir.

Thoth: The History of the Ancient Egyptian God of Wisdom, by Lesley Jackson
Avalonia Books, 9781905297474, 225 pp., 2012
This is a rather unique book in that it does not attempt to be anything other than an attempt to show how Egyptians through the millennia related to Thoth. It isn't designed to detail the hymns and rituals associated with Thoth, although they do figure into the account. It isn't about his priesthood or his temples, although they also enter into the account
There are numerous books which relate how the dynastic families of ancient Egypt related to Thoth, but very few which give any indication how commoners saw their interaction with the God of Wisdom in his various functions of scribe, messenger of the gods, protector, and psychopomp . While the average Egyptian might expect that they would never encounter the majority of their gods, Thoth was their guide in the afterlife, and everyone – no matter how high or low their status – would meet him during their transition between life and afterlife.

So the Wireless ones have a cable like the studio ones? Is the size like the Studio ones or smaller? When it says over the ear is it cupping the ear?
I'm thinking i might buy some for myself soon. I just want to know all the specifications. I don't want to make the wrong choice and regret like aw man i just spent 300 dollars on the FIRST pair of Beats i might consider buying. I would really appreciate it if someone could take the time and answer my 3 questions.

Beats Wireless On-Ear Headphones
Product No Longer Available
2 Answers from the Community
They are smaller than the studios but larger than the solos. They sit on top of the ears
- Answered by Jay P
The wireless are on-ear: they sit on your ears, which is not recommended for those with sensitive ears. The studios however are over-ear: the ear-cushions encloses your entire ear to create more noise-isolation, these headphones (studios) are suited for those who want absolute silence around them.
The cable form the wireless are the exact same ones as the studios. You can use both for each headphone (which is amazing). The studios are bigger and the wireless in terms of size.

There are a few principle sub-fields inside cell science. One is the investigation of cell vitality and the biochemical instruments that help cell digestion system. As cells are machines unto themselves, the concentrate on cell vitality covers with the quest for inquiries of how vitality first emerged in unique primordial cells, billions of years back. An alternate subfield of cell science concerns the hereditary qualities of the cell and its tight interconnection with the proteins controlling the arrival of hereditary data from the core to the cell cytoplasm. Yet an alternate subfield concentrates on the structure of cell parts, known as subcellular compartments. Cutting crosswise over numerous natural controls is the extra subfield of cell science, concerned with cell correspondence and flagging, focusing on the messages that cells provide for and get from different cells and themselves. Lastly, there is the subfield fundamentally concerned with the cell cycle, the turn of stages starting and completion with cell division and concentrated on distinctive times of development and replication. Numerous cell scholars abide at the crossing point of two or a greater amount of these subfields as our capacity to dissect cells in more unpredictable ways stretches.
In accordance with persistently expanding interdisciplinary study, the late development of frameworks science has influenced numerous organic orders; it is a technique that energizes the investigation of living frameworks inside the connection of different frameworks. In the field of cell science, frameworks science has empowered the soliciting and replying from more perplexing inquiries, for example, the interrelationships of quality administrative systems, evolutionary connections in the middle of genomes, and the associations between intracellular flagging systems. At last, the more extensive a lens we undertake our disclosures in cell science, the more probable we can interpret the complexities of all living frameworks, substantial and little.
Many countries in the world are advanced in terms of medical technology. These countries and the people play a vital role in the medical sector's future. Internet based medical technology is vital to keeping the entire world healthy at low costs, ensuring medical information is spread throughout every nation to those in need. However, some people are still unable to receive an internet connection. We look forward to the day when this will no longer be an issue, and continue to aspire to help those through being a dedicated online resource for the emergency medical field.
Take a look at using Australia's internet based medical technology. The Medical Technology Association of Illinois is the national association representing companies in the medical technology industry. This organization aims to ensure that use the benefits of modern, innovative and reliable medical technology are delivered effectively to provide better health outcomes to the Australian community.
The represent manufacturers and suppliers of medical technology used in the diagnosis, prevention, treatment and management of disease and disability. The range of medical technology is diverse with products ranging from familiar items such as syringes and wound dressings, through to high-technology implanted devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, hip and other orthopaedic (orthopedic) implants. Products also include hospital and diagnostic imaging equipment such as ultrasounds and magnetic resonance imaging machines.
Medical members distribute the majority of the non-pharmaceutical products used in the diagnosis and treatment of disease and disability in Australia. Member companies also play a vital role in providing healthcare professionals with essential education and training to ensure safe and effective use of medical technology.
The United States remains the largest medical device market in the world, with a market size of around $110 billion, and it is expected to reach $133 billion by 2016. The U.S. market value represented about 38 percent of the global medical device market in 2012. U.S. exports of medical devices in key product categories identified by the Department of Commerce (DOC) exceeded $44 billion in 2012, a more than 7 percent increase from the previous year.
There are more than 6,500 medical device companies in the U.S., mostly small and medium-sized enterprises. More than 80 percent of medical device companies have fewer than 50 employees, and many notably innovative start-up companies have little or no sales revenue. Medical device companies are located throughout the country, but are mainly concentrated in regions known for other high-technology industries, such as microelectronics and biotechnology. The states with the highest number of medical device companies include California, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Massachusetts, Illinois, Minnesota and Georgia. Other states with significant sector employment include Washington, Wisconsin, and Texas.
U.S. medical device companies are highly regarded globally for their innovations and high technology products. Investment in medical device research and development more than doubled during the 1990s, and research and development investment in the domestic sector remains more than twice the average for all U.S. manufacturers.
The United States also holds a competitive advantage in several industries that the medical device industry relies upon, including microelectronics, telecommunications, instrumentation, biotechnology, and software development. Collaborations have led to recent advances including neuro-stimulators, stent technologies, biomarkers, robotic assistance and implantable electronic devices. Since the industry is fueled by innovation and the ongoing quest for better ways of treating or diagnosing medical problems, the future growth of this sector remains positive.
Canada is slow to adopt the latest medical technologies, forcing Canadian patients to rely on old and often outdated medical equipment for treatment, says a new study from the Fraser Institute, an independent research organization.
Lack of access to cutting-edge medical technology has significant consequences; the most obvious is that a patient's survival or return to full health is compromised because of a later or less sophisticated diagnosis and more invasive treatment.
"Equally disconcerting is that Canada's total healthcare expenditures are among the highest in the developed world and yet the limited inventory of advanced medical equipment found in our healthcare system is often old and outdated."
New medical technologies can provide faster and more efficient identification and treatment of disease. They can offer the patient safer, less invasive and more comfortable treatments and care, as well as offering new treatment options where none previously existed.
The peer-reviewed study, Medical Technology in Canada, evaluates the availability of medical technology in Canada compared to other nations within the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development, measures the age and sophistication of medical technology in Canada, and measures the stock of available cutting-edge medical technology in Canada's five largest cities: Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, and Calgary. View an overview of the healthcare industry.
Our study here at EM-Blog focuses principally on technologies in the diagnostic imaging, laboratory diagnostic, surgical, and patient services areas in many different branches of the medical field, in all different parts of the world: such as dentists in Russia, oral surgeons in Europe, and even dietitians in Singapore.
Overall, even the modern Western world can still use advances in online medical technology. Join us in the progression towards helping all the world in need, as our future depends on the continued growth of the healthcare industry. The internet is a great place to start for searching for many medical questions.

1. Arian Foster is the answer to all of the Texans problems. They've been looking for a feature back since entering the league. Jonathan Wells, Domanick Davis Williams, Ahman Green, Steve Slaton and many others have tried and failed to fill that hole. Now Foster looks like the real deal.
2. I missed the end of the Cowboys-Redskins game, but when I heard the game ended on a holding penalty the name Alex Barron immediately popped into my head. Sure enough, it was Barron who blew the game for the Cowboys. He may be the least disciplined player in the game – regardless of position. He'll lose his starting job, and maybe his job altogether, as soon as Marc Colombo is healthy.
3. But I shouldn't put all the blame on Barron. Tony Romo and Tashard Choice, what were you thinking at the end of the first half?! A shovel pass is possibly the last thing that should have happened on that play. Throw a hail mary, throw it out of bounds, or just take a sack! Anything is better than a shovel pass. That was destined to fail.
4. The Steelers are in serious trouble if Max Starks doesn't get healthy soon. Jonathan Scott replaced Starks on Sunday and, according to ProFootballFocus.com, allowed three quarterback pressures on the 10 pass plays in which he was on the field. Tony Hillis is also an option to replace Starks at left tackle. And if they get really desperate, rookie Kyle Jolly is on the practice squad.
5. The Jets might be the least disciplined team in football, and I'm not at all surprised. What do you expect when you put that many egos one roster, led by a coach that has little control over his players. Rex Ryan is a hell of coach, but he isn't real big on discipline and it shows on the field. The Jets committed 14 penalties for 125 yards, 10 of which came in the 1st half. For a team that isn't expecting much out of its offense, that's simply unacceptable.
6. What happened to the Dolphins offense? Surely the Bills defense, in their first game running a 3-4 system, didn't improve dramatically from a season ago. The Dolphins didn't turn the ball over, controlled the clock for over 36 minutes and yet only put 13 points on the board (the other two points came on a safety). Here's one idea to jump start the offense: get more than two receivers involved. Brandon Marshall and Davon Bess were the only wide receivers with a catch on Sunday. They need to find away to get Brian Hartline involved. He's their Wes Welker.
7. The Bucs and Browns may be the two worst teams in football. The Bills were in the discussion, but they actually looked better than expected on Sunday, at least on defense. The Rams were also in the mix, but nearly pulled off a win over the Cardinals. But the Browns and Bucs played a nearly unwatchable game this weekend. That game very well may have decided the No. 1 pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. Jake Locker, pack your bags for Cleveland.
8. According to ProFootballFocus.com, Peyton Manning dropped back to pass 59 times on Sunday and was sacked, hit or pressured on 25 of those plays. That's a remarkable 42.5 percent of his pass plays. That's bad news for the Colts offensive line, but it also calls attention to just how freaking amazing Manning is at playing this sport. Despite all that pressure he didn't throw an interception and completed over 70 percent of his passes.
9. The Falcons offense couldn't have been more predictable. Hand off to Michael Turner, pass to Roddy White, hand off to Michael Turner… and so on. They need to get others involved in the offense if they're going to improve upon Sunday's pitiful showing. The Steelers defense is good, but not that good. Offensive coordinator Mike Mularky played right into the Steelers hands with a terribly uncreative game plan.
10. And finally, I'm not even sure what to say about Calvin Johnson's touchdown that wasn't. Clearly he caught the ball. The NFL needs to do away with these nonsense rules that throw common sense out the window.

Drama, Family
A pair of young Mexican boys ditch school in favor of catching an afternoon matinee, only to find themselves on an adventure wild enough to spawn a movie of its own in this richly textured children's adventure from director Jaime Humberto Hermosillo. Though they wanted to see a movie, these two hooky-playing grade-schoolers are promptly busted and nearly expelled. Though a ride home with a local truck driver seems to signal the end of their afternoon excursion, the stakes are soon raised when a gang of thieves hijack the truck and whisk the kids away on a breathless journey that's well worth the price of admission.~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Questions about purchasing bicycles and parts

Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
I went to my usual LBS to buy myself some minor stuff and bump into Opera Superleonardo frameset on display. Something looked like this
Since i am considering upgrading myself to a better bike and knowing that opera is equal to older Pina frame (I am not sure if the one in the LBS is the current year one or past year models), is this a good frame to build my new bike from? The LBS also suggested me a current year 2013 Pina Paris instead of this one as the price of this two model are quite close to each other.
That being said, i am keen to hear from you guys and please throw me suggestion for a bike with my budget of 5000AUD.
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
I have a seasonal riding companion who trained on one of these. Better still it was a close fit for me and I rode it (60km) on the Ocean Road, Victoria about 3 years ago. It too, was fitted with a pair of Zipp 404 clinchers and some nice slick tyres like the model in the image above.
It was a dry road and still air when I had a ride so perfect riding conditions really. The frame set was "solid", I could feel no flexing or creaking - gave a very planted feeling on the road like a bicycle of considerably more weight and longer wheelbase. The ride felt steady - did not feel the slightest bit flighty or nervous on faster decents, however, it was no weight weenie....... if that's your thing.
The frameset was an all black stealthy looking thing (gorgeous) with some graphite grey painted detailing, all finished very nicely indeed......... I took plenty of time drooling over it......... alas it died on the car roof when my freind was admiring his house paint job and forgot about this bike on the roof rack as he rolled into his garage......
The cranks, bars and stem were all 'Most' branded (Pinnarello's in house brand) unlike the bicycle above -he purchased it at DeGrandi Cycles in Geelong about 4 years ago for a 'very significant' amount of money'....... ie. he refused to say how much he forked out for it.
If the frame set you are looking at is a good fit for you, you like a non twitchy planted ride and you get a decent discount (no idea what it's worth now) then I see no issue with building up a Super Leonardo.

Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Super Leonardo are awesome . Opera is an off shoot of Pinarello and my mate who rides one loves it, almost as much as his doggie.
Other mate rides a Paris which he loves so I'm sure you'll be happy with either.

Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Guys, thanks for the reply. By any chance if you know that the local Pina importer still carrying Opera brand? From what the LBS told me, they said they are pushing lots more Pina into Australia then Opera. I not really sure how LBS still have this frame in hand considering i dont see it anymore on other LBS in Australia.
I am not really concern about the frame being light as I am a lightish person to began with (55kg). I more more keen on the frame performance in that respect. I am so itching to transfer components from my current bike (shim 105 and fulcrum racing 1 wheels) to this frame. My common sense and lbs tell me that putting a mid-tier groupset onto an expensive frame (at that time) doesn't make sense.
If i found that the Superleonardo frame in my LBS is the older year model then i may lean onto current year Paris.

Glen Parker in Perth can help mate.

Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
I am on east coast bro. I also bump onto Glen parker website when i was going researching the web. Thanks for the heads up
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
They send interstate I believe. Good guys & worth a chat.
Proudly "a hater of academics with helmet cams"
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
I have made up my mind in regards which one should i go for. I decide to go for Pina Paris in Mechanical ultegra. Told the lbs about and hopefully they get back to me asap
Dont really care much about groupset, i more concern about good frame and good wheels
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Great! Mechanical Ultegra 6700 performs well - I can speak from experience.
When you get your bike - post pics or it didn't happen........
3rd class cycling is always better than 1st class walking
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
I just picked up a new dogma2 frame from PMC in Melbourne for just under $4k. I think they may have a couple left.
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Update - I went to lbs that i usually patronize (I got my first bike there too) and told them i am keen to get a pina paris in mechanical ultergra. All i got from them is an not interested face and "oh okay, we will get back to you in few days tru email after I work things out with the budget around Pina paris" Till now i did not get any word from them, very disappointing with them considering i am returning customer. Maybe they are doing very well that they willing to lose a customer. I was thinking going back there to ask but thinking about it now i was considering ditching them alltogether and go to another lbs. Sucks to be honest
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Poor warranty with Opera Bikes. Only 2 years. Azzurri made better hence the better warranty.
Some bikes are pure marketing. Some a pure quality. The way a company stands behind its product warranty wise is a clear indication of how to determine cr*p from class.
Vegan since 2001.
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
So based upon this logic my Colnago C50 frameset is double cr*p as it only came with a 12 month warranty as do all the Colnago framesets incl. the top end hand built frames..............?
Most frame warranties cover only defective workmanship and materials.
Quality frame builders figure, and I agree that 12 months is more than plenty of time for faulty materials to fail or for poor workmanship to show up.
3rd class cycling is always better than 1st class walking
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Although I don't think azzuri are better quality than colnago, I do think 12 months warranty on their frames is pretty poor . . .

Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
I know this is a bump, but I've just come into one of these.
They are pretty amazing. Very very stiff. Not overly comfy I'll say but very fast.
They aren't super light but they do look to be durable so I'm ok with that. Let's see how we go.
Once you can climb hills on a bike it's all downhill.
Hopefully I'll know what that's like..... one day.
Re: Opera Superleonardo any thoughts
Keep us posted, they are a rare bird indeed..........

Goodbye for a year--but not really
Today--Sunday, October 10, 2010--is your last chance for a year to visit the Weisman Art Museum. At 5 p.m., we'll close our doors until fall 2011 as part of our major expansion project.
The expansion has been part of WAM's long-term plan since the building opened in 1993. Legendary architect Frank Gehry has returned to complete his original vision for the Weisman with these new gallery spaces.
It'll be worth the wait. The Weisman's five new galleries will allow us to share more than three times as many objects from our permanent collection at any given time. One new gallery will be filled with highlights from our noted ceramics collection (master potter Warren MacKenzie will help us select the work); two will house masterworks of American modernism; and another will showcase our considerable collection of photography, prints, and drawings. The fifth new gallery, the Target Studio for Creative Collaboration, will house experimental collaborations between artists and students, faculty, and the community.
Check out some recent media stories on our expansion here, here, and here.
If you haven't been to WAM recently, here's how the construction site looks these days:
People have asked us what we'll be doing during this year that we're closed. We'll be using off-site locations to bring you great programming like the WAM Art Mob, which visits artists' studios, tours private collections, and goes to galleries to learn about collecting art in a casual atmosphere. If you haven't been part of Art Mob before, this would be a perfect year to join. Read more here.
We'll also be taking the Weisman on the road. Through a new education program called WAM to Go, we'll bring the richness of WAM's vast collection to schools, libraries, and community centers. Trained museum instructors will lead interactive workshops that feature images of objects from the museum. Workshops are designed to be active, guided, thematic discussions rooted in the participants' experiences, with critical looking and thinking about selected images from the Weisman's diverse collection. Interested in hosting a WAM to Go workshop? Email our education department.
Also this year, we'll be reinventing and reimagining everything we do at WAM--we'll bring new interpretive techologies into the galleries, redesign our website, create new visitor experiences, re-engineer our membership program, and imagine new ways to collaborate with our audiences. You'll recognize us when we reopen, but you'll also say, "Wow--you've changed!"
So, stick around. Stick with us. Join the Art Mob. Host a WAM to Go workshop. If you haven't already, sign up for our e-newsletter, where we'll give regular updates throughout the year on our transformation. While our precise opening date has yet to be set, expect the party of the year in fall 2011.
As Gehry himself famously said, "You've got to bumble forward into the unknown."
Here we go.

Chairman Supervisor Smith Cox and Justice Gittens, both informed the meeting that they were in no way eonnected with the company, and had no intereat in it whatsoever. The meeting opened by having the applica¬ tion read. The plan of the company as to rates and service, the company in¬ tended to use, were explained to the meeting by J. Huyler Ellison. Short speeches were made by Richard Suits, Thomas Willis, William Austin, secre¬ tary of the Baldwin CSvic Club, Coun- seller A. T. Davison, and E. H. Payne. At the outset it was annarent that sen¬ timent was against granting the com¬ pany the franchise. There seemed to be a misunderstanding about the matter all around, and some heated remarks were made during the short session. When it was put to vote which was taken by holding up of hands, there were two in favor and the rest against the proposition. Undoubtedly, this village would be benefited by a water company and the present opposition to granting a fran¬ chise is caused hy something we know nothing abont nor do we care to know. We fail in onr mission as a newspaper when we drclinft to speak for something that will better any section this paper i-overs.

Since the Senator's offer there have been received by the Town Board other offers of more money for the same land, but a noticeable fact in connection with these offers is the fact that they were made too late to prop¬ erly lay them before the people in bal¬ lot form for their action at the polls. Senator Kissell, of Kings County, Brook¬ lyn, makes one of these offers. He is a resident of Oceanside in the summer time, and Dr. Schmuck, of Lawrence, makes another offer. In connection with these offers, it has been noted tliat in one of the public meetings, Fred. Gilbert stated that he represented a syndicate which would offer $250,000 for these lands. The Senator answered him promptly, saying that if he would draw up the legal document and present them he (Reynolds) would sign the property over to the Gilbert syndicate in case the voters favored the selling, and would pay the difference between the two figures in cash to the town for nothidg and $10,000 to charity. This matter is hy far one of the most talked about in the Town to-day. The voters will end all discussion at least for a year, when they go to the polls. Speaking for the proposition b»4»ic voters of the Town of Hempstead, to purchase additional lands at Long Beach adjoining the present Long Beach Es¬ tates, ex-Senator William H, Re3molds is addressing residents« of various vil¬ lages in support of this proposition.

We regret to have to report the sad death Thursday of the three and one- half year old son of Henry Verity. The little one had been ill for some time and passed away quietly. It had just been christened by the Rev. Mr. Braithwaite of Wantagh. The funeral was Sunday, interment being in Greenfield. Our sym¬ pathies are extended to the bereavea parents. The baseball diamond Monday morning looked like a scene from last night's car¬ nival. There were about 'steen miles of colored papers strewn about, showing the crowd's enthusiasm for the local club which won the last game of the season from the Bay Shore sluggers who came over to do them up. The score amounted to 21 for Bellmore and 8 for the visitors. Batteries Seaman and Merritt pitchers, and Smith behind th? bat. Bedell and Wicks for the Bay Shore crowd.

Mr. Lafferty was a well-known sight in Hempstead, where he was pushed about on a cot-like carriage. He was a victim of a trolley car accident, and was given ^$12,000 shout two years ago through his counsel, Pierce M. Browne, for in¬ juries received.

Evans-Powers Fight The second scrap between Dr. Evans and'Thomas Powers, both of Freeport, took place Monday night, with disastrous results for the doctor. The first scrap, ac¬ cording to Powers, took place when he was engaged by a Mr. Welden to dig post holes for a fence, to be erected between the Welden and' Evans properties on lower Main Street. At that time, Dr. S^vans ordered Powers to stop the work, stating the holes were on his, (Evans) property. Powers refeiyed him to his em¬ ployer. From reports we gather that the doughty doctor swung hard on Powers' jaw and Powers retaliated, then Mrs. mix-up, landed in one of the post holes and all the belligerents were then placed hors de combat. (?) Both'aides spilled some red blood and friends knew the end was not in sight and they were right, for Monday night, near 6 o'clock, Evans aad Powers met on Main Street and Powers states the doctor punched him through J^a^¦¦^^^-¦v^^fel^:i>vfei;a.«£aB;^;kaai>;^;:¦ mdiam instrument" and tben the flght com' menced in earnsst. iy>wers went for Evans and when he was through it was neoessary to call on Dr. Witmer to at¬ tend a brother physician, who was bmised about the face and body and badly sh9ken up wben found by village (Continued on page 5) The tournament at the Salisbury Links, at Garden Oty, is narrowing down to a majority qf Hempstead golf¬ ers.

VIDEO: Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 cameras test
In possibly the most interesting press event Pocket-lint has attended in recent times, Samsung chose unique dining experience Dinner in the Sky as the setting to unveil its Galaxy Tab 10.1 in the UK. Journalistic luminaries joined head honchos from the South Korean tech giant in checking out the new device on the eve of its consumer launch (3 August at PC World, Tottenham Court Road, London), and 2 days before it goes on general sale. All while hung 50 metres above the ground from a crane.
For those who aren't already aware, Dinner in the Sky is bonkers. The dining table, surrounding chairs, chefs and food are all hoisted up, while guests are firmly strapped into comfy sports car-style bucket seats. It's certainly a talking point, and not for the faint of heart. Those with vertigo need definitely not apply.
However, we loved it. As we do the Galaxy Tab 10.1. And while we were up there, we decided to test out the front and rear-facing cameras on the tablet, with the spectacular view of Tower Bridge in London as our inspiration.
The front camera is of the 2-megapixel variety, the rear 3-megapixels. We shot in both daylight and as the sun had set, and not using any artificial lighting. This is the result...
Please note that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 shoots in 720p, and we've uploaded the HD version to YouTube. However, obviously YouTube itself uses compression techniques, so any picture noise or pixelation may be the result of the uploading process, rather than the tablet.

Crowdfunding, alternately termed crowd financing, equity crowdfunding, crowd equity, crowd-sourced fundraising, is the collective effort of individuals who network and pool their money, usually via the Internet, to support efforts initiated by other people or organizations. Crowdfunding is used in support of a wide variety of activities, including disaster relief, citizen journalism, support of artists by fans, political campaigns, start-up company funding, motion picture promotion, free software development, inventions development, scientific research, and civic projects.
Top game developing companies such as Ouya, inXile Entertainment and Obsidian Entertainment raised an impressive $16.78 Million collectively, in crowdfunded capital. Game developers and technology start-ups have been the most popular and successful companies to use crowdfunding but non-for-profit organizations have also used the new-age capital source to also raise money for much-needed causes.

Not quite a workstation replacement, the Samsung Galaxy Note Pro is an expensive behemoth of a tablet with a vast amount of features that will benefit only the most serious of tablet users.
The 2014 Nissan Versa Note offers good efficiency and space for people and cargo, but there are so many better values in this class.
Though its design and features can't compare with the Galaxy Note 8, the EVGA Tegra Note 7 delivers a solid stylus experience for almost half the price.
Though its plastic skin doesn't do its high price justice, Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 makes the most compelling case yet for a supersize phone.

Plum Blossom Highball Glasses, Set of 4 2 2
From everyday to dinner parties I bought these glasses 2 years or so ago and I am so happy to see them online. I rarely "fall in love" with items, but I must admit these glasses does it all for me. They are great for daily dinners to acting as a showpiece on my table as we have guests over. I think they are well done, sophisticated looking, great price, and really no frill. They add just the right touch to the table and we always gets compliments. No noe would ever know that these are just a few dollars a piece. May 31, 2011
So cute for summer cocktails: mojitos I saw something very similar when out at a restaurant. They were serving mojitos in them. I had to have one. When I saw these glasses I bought them for our summer cocktails. But my daughter loves them for her soda too. Just makes your drink a little on the fancier side over an every day glass. So far holding up well in dishwasher but only a few washings. May 5, 2011
