Class action suit claims Siri does not work as advertised
A class action suit has been raised against Apple claiming Siri does not appear to work as advertised. Siri was launched as a key feature of the iPhone 4S however it has always carried the tag of beta software. This has not deterred a New York man from suing Apple for false advertising over Siri's capabilities. Frank M.Fazio purchased his iPhone 4S back in November and is now part of a class of people who feel mislead by Apple.
In many of Apple's television advertisements, individuals are shown using Siri to make appointments, find restaurants, and even learn the guitar chords to classic rock songs or how to tie a tie. In the commercials, all of these tasks are done with ease with the assistance of the iPhone 4S's Siri feature, a represented functionality contrary to the actual operating results and performance of Siri.
The case claims that Siri is much less responsive than shown in the advertisements even though Apple issues a disclaimer stating that the service's sequences were shortened for advertising purposes. The lawsuit asks for unspecified damages and claims Siri is "at best, a work-in-progress". Isn't that the same thing as a beta?

Class action suit claims Siri does not work as advertised
And other people falsely advertise their products
I agree this is just a stupid law suit, the product is in BETA, let me restate that the product is in BETA.
Also for the most part if you know how the product works you can use it like the commercial. Siri has problems transitioning between WiFi and 3G, so what I do is if I know I'm going to use Siri during the day, turn of WiFi. Also Siri has issues with Bluetooth, she doesn't always respond properly and in the car she will not work with Bluetooth properly either.
This is nothing new in the USA or other parts of the world, companies advertise in their ideal world conditions which is not the real world. If you notice the commercials, the people do not use bluetooth earpieces are either in WiFi or 3G locations, but not both. I think Apple knows the short comings and market around it. Is that right NO and no company should be allowed to do this, but they do and this is no different.
I have to agree with Danny, First World Problems, Indeed.....
I don't think you can advertise siri as the main selling point of your phone and then hide behind the beta tag. No where i have seen on the phone does it say beta. I think its a dumb lawsuit, but the beta label doesn't mean anything if you are showing misleading commercials about its performance.
I think they would have a better chance fighting the lawsuit that Apple sold Siri as the main reason to upgrade. Thus charging people for siri (a beta). They basically used Siri as the ad campaign and it doesnt even work.
I almost broke my phone last week. My wife called while I was in the car. She asked me to stop at the store (just less then 1/4 mile my home). I thought, hey, I will set a reminder to stop at the store when I get home. (My phone GPS usually thinks I am home when I get within a 1/4 mile of my home). I picked up the phone, hit Siri and said"remind me to pick up a bottle of wine when I get home" I tried this 5 times. Every single time I got the same response "I dont know what you mean "remind me to pick up a bottle of wine when you get home". After the 5th attempt, I finally threw the phone on the seat of my car and pulled out paper and pen.
Completely agree with LeBeef. I have been bashing Apple for using this practice on my site for months now. There are so many other great features of the phone the DO work properly, WHY on EARTH would you focus on the one Beta piece that never works and spend millions promoting the phone as such. I wont join the suit, I don't believe in it - this country is too litigious as is so I wont be a party to a lawsuit over something this stupid, and sadly I worked in Advertising before my conscience took over so I understand how truths are stretched or enhanced. But come on - this isn't even close. The thing NEVER works, ever.
If you want to see my satirical take on this all, you can read the posts here: http://www.thingsarefunny.com/2012/03/looks-like-im-not-alone.htmlhttp://www.thingsarefunny.com/2012/02/finally-truthful-apple-siri.html
Oh, come on! Did anyone watch listen or read the Keynote address when the phone was announced and introduced? Clearly it was stated that Siri is in beta and that there would be a few bugs. I haven't had any problems with Siri, then again, I am not that gullible to believe the hype and glory spread by the mainstream press and the average tech blog reporter who neglects all the details and fawns over the precious. Apple has clearly stated that Siri is in beta. get over it.
Even Apple's website displays clearly that Siri is in Beta. Get over it.
I can't believe someone would sue apple for this. In my Siri experience it has done what it says it can and yes it takes some time, because it's not a human mind. I'll pay close attention to this lawsuit because if they win I will be extremely disappointed. I'd like to meet some of these people listed in the lawsuit just to tell them how ignorant they are
I think many of you are missing the point. Apple may state that Siri is still in beta, but it has two very visible commercials touting the function as a key component for the iPhone S. Now I recognize that Apple needed to differentiate the iPhone S from the original iPhone considering the design is the same (except for some of the internals which most consumers could care less about), but I could see this pissing some consumers off if it didn't work as expected.
Unfortunately, others have done this before Apple, and the reality is that others will do it after Apple. To state a few companies, ATT, VZW, T-Mobile, Google, Microsoft, IBM, I can go on, but I think you get my point.
The reality is Apple is no more evil then all these companies, and actually some are more evil then Apple.
No I am not a fan boy, I will put them down for things they did wrong, and raise them for things they do right, but I also won't simply blame them because they did what others do...
I don't think anyone is saying that Apple is the only one doing this. I am sure there are many other cases where a company got sued for false advertisement.
When someone offers an opinion you don't like, you call them a troll and then talk about their upbringing? What are we supposed to call you then?
apart from in this case the name rob white is synonymous with trolling, you only have to be on this site a few days to see the connection. Funny it's usually me calling him a troll.
I bought a 4S for my wife last week for her birthday. I played with Siri while getting the phone set up for her. Siri didn't work for crap in the car on the way home. When I asked Siri where would be a good place to go to get a beer it suggested a strip club 20 miles away. O_o Nevermind that there are 20 bars between here and there, and that I wouldn't step foot into that particular club on a bet.
Siri was disappointing, but it seems better than anything similar I have tried on my EVO3D. Nothing to sue Apple about though.
How about you do a poll of every iPhone 4S user, even the ones that don't frequent this site, and see how many know it is in beta. You are kidding yourself if you think that the service is advertised as beta.
Siri is cool but it is not as effective as Apple would like us to believe. If you are going to put beta software on your phone and then tout it as a selling feature, you might get some disgruntled consumers when it's not exactly as advertised either in speed or functionality. I'm not necessarily supportive of the lawsuit but companies need to be held accountable for the difference between the "reality" portrayed in ads and what the reality really is. Apple has probably overreached here with their reliance on siri but you can't deny that it has had an effect on the market as google is developing it's own version. It is not a worthless concept or bad software. It's just that siri on my phone is not the siri on the ads but it's not that far off either at least when it works.
Actually MPG are always listed as estimates, and there are several factors to MPG, such a driving conditions and area, and the driver themselves are variable in that amount. So you are comparing Oranges with Apples. LOL...
Honestly Apple shouldn't advertise a beta product in whole. I can see them saying we a voice assistant and then moving on but having a whole commercial for Siri is wrong.
Even when Google Nav was/is in beta, competitors advertise it as a feature, but the whole commercial is not dedicated to the Google Nav; at least what I have seen. I could be wrong though.
Mpg is clearly stated to be estimates. And there are class actions against them when they don't live up to expectations. Search hyundai elantra mpg class action.
The difference here is no where in the commercials does it state that Siri is in beta and may not always work as advertised. They only say the sequences have been shortened and I'd venture a guess some of them have been completely fabricated/simulated.
Siri is a complete waste of time here in the UK, you cannot use it for anything at all, and I mean nothing which in my opinion makes its less than Alpha, certainly not Beta.
Without Siri the 4S really doesnt have much over the 4 (on paper), Apple needed Siri to be able to quantify the launch of a new product, and as such a major 'feature' of the 4S that doesnt work is most certainly a misadvertised.
@Simon - I beg to differ as far as 4S not having anything other than Siri vs the iPhone 4.
I bought my 4S for the 8MP excellent quality camera as well as the dual core processor.
Siri has no affect on my purchase, I chose the 4S over the 4 simply based on camera specs and processor specs.
Because any iPhone on Verzion will only use EVDO REV A. for data regardless of the model. EVDO REV A. averages around 700k to 1 Mbps. The iPhone 4S is a hybrid radio that includes HSDPA 14.4 Mpbs/HSPUA 5.76 Mpbs for people on HSPA networks like AT&T.
If camera quality is so important then buy a proper digital camera, even an 8MP DSLR will be miles ahead of a 4S.
For Siri there is no alternative device, Gamers should buy consoles, photographers should buy cameras, people who want to use dictation to control their phone have Siri and only Siri on the iPhone, and it plain and simply doesnt work as a key selling feature of the device.
Windows Phone and Android voice control are much better, agreed its not fluid and you have to say given commands but at least the phones do what you tell them.
This lawsuit is a waste; much like the patent trolling lawsuits that are going on in the mobile industry today. What is interesting is seeing Apple and its most ardent supporters using Google's cry of "It's Beta, dummy!" to defend against the problems. That is the problem with releasing beta software in a production environment. I wondered how long it would take for that defense to be used.
By the way; in my experience, the Siri application is only useful for creating lists and as a search input method. It will be interesting to see where Apple takes it from here and when they will drop the beta label from it.
no, you're just a f*king troll and people can't stand you.
right because trolling a site is the height of maturity -
Then I'm suing AT&T for saying my iPhone has 4G when it doesn't! It's all about advertising, and having a leg up (AT&T is the worst!); why should Apple be held to different standards than Samsung, Dell, HP, AT&T, Verizon?
Verzion advertises LTE when it doesn't meat the original definition of Advanced LTE by the ITU. Verzion is the worst at lying.
So essentially he is doing what Apple and Android have been doing to each for the last several months lol, suing the crap out of each other. This idiot does not realize that because Apple disclaimed that Siri is in BETA the judge is going to give them a big slap in the face cause nowhere has Apple stated Siri is a finish product and also expressed that the commercial was edited. They have been upfront with this info, This idiot obviously didn't learn how to read.
You cannot on one hand ding Android for requiring technical knowledge the average user lacks and and on the other allow Apple to take refuge in a tag most users neither know nor understand. Those of us who follow Apple blogs and read Apple's info pages know this, but the average user does not. Certainly Apple has not made it clear in their advertisements that Siri is in beta.
If the iPhone truly is the phone "for the rest of us" -- whatever that means -- then the iPhone, even more than competing products, trades on the perception it creates for "the rest of us." You can use "beta" as a shield if most of your users know and understand it is beta, but you lose "beta" as a shield if the beta product is the main focus of your marketing efforts.
Siri is working for me, however my biggest gripe is how she won't work with the Bluetooth in my car. She misunderstands everything like "call bill" and she's like "here's the nearest gas station"??? The old apple iPhone 4 voice activation worked from making calls to playing music fine. I think it may be the microphone not having notice canceling tech but still, older system was 90% accurate to siris 10%. Tho when not connected to my car it's about 85-90 accurate and very helpful.
She? It's a program - not a living thing.
...really? He's referring to the fact that Siri has a female voice. I'm pretty sure he knows it's a program and not a living thing.
Ok, the lawsuit is silly, but he's got a point. Siri is "beta" and will always be, because Apple knows it will never work as advertised. The regular customer does not even know what "beta" means, and would NEVER expect something "beta" on a Apple product.
If Siri was on any other device people would be bashing it right and left, but, as usual, Apple gets a free pass from its herd, which almost feel sorry for Apple because Siri does not work well. Bad Siri, bad.
That commercial where the kid tries to get Siri to teach him how to play guitar and then wants her to call his deluded self "Rock God", is absolutely ridiculous. I've tested Siri out to attempt some of the things shown in the commercial. Some things work. Others don't. But a lawsuit based on unrealistic expectations is purely daft.
I would personally like to see where Apple lists Siri as a beta other than the Apple keynote that most consumers haven't seen or a tiny footnote on the website which most haven't seen even if they did buy it via the web. I'm looking at a 4S box now and it's not there either.
After commercials:
"Sequences shortened. Coverage varies."
Legally, that's good enough.
On website:
"1. Siri is available in Beta only on iPhone 4S and requires Internet access. Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Cellular data charges may apply."
Legally, that's good enough.
The user manual also outlines that a good data connection is needed, and certain things may interfere with the service.
Legally, that's also good enough.
This suit is frivolous.
"Siri, call me 'Rock God'"
insert lawsuit here
Here is where Apple opened themselves to this lawsuit. For a beta program, they are making every effort to sell it as THE forefront feature for the iphone 4s. Otherwise its just another iphone 4. You shouldn't put an incomplete feature as the forefront of your flagship product.
Still these peeps suing cannot be so ignorant to how siri works and that its performance is directly tied to the performance of your data network. If its crap, well then Siri will be crap. Suppose all in the lawsuit must be Sprint customers :)
Imagine if Ford claimed the new Fusion got 60 mpg but when you got the car it only got half that. Then imagine if the Ford fan boys said well that is ok because it's in beta. LMFAO!
Great program, amazing footage. Two gripes: stop the inane anthropomorphizing. The tree is not a "she" or a "queen." Irritating as all hell. Second, why don't you identify the birds? You identified every insect and mammal but not the weavers, the barbets, the pigeon...
Actually for huge addon support and friendly, firefox has become most popular browser on market. Anyway thanks for sharing for this.
Not to interrupt this web site thread, but I'm desperate to find out more about computer repair in NJ. I can't find any reliable sources… Are you aware anything regarding Step Up in NJ? They're based out of Union City, NJ, really not that far from me I can't find any reviews on them…Step Up Technical Solutions 4407 Park Avenue 2nd Floor Union City, NJ 07087 (201) 617-0211

Lion's Field is truly a multipurpose center, offering a variety of classes and programs. Classes are small enough to provide social opportunities and individual attention from instructors. Special events and holiday celebrations occur frequently.
This center offers an assortment of great programs and activities:
The land that includes Lion's Field, 2908 Broadway, was once a pasture for George W. Brackenridge's collection of animals, including buffalo and elk. The property belonged to Brackenridge's San Antonio Water Supply Company, which he sold in 1906 to owners who kept the land until 1916. Guided by Parks Commissioner Ray Lambert, the City purchased the property for $30,000 so that ". . . the natural beauty of the park will not be spoiled. . . . "
The land remained undeveloped until 1923 when the Lions Club of San Antonio, the largest Lions Club in the world, selected the site for a supervised playground to be built by the club as a gift to the City. The club pledged $10,000 to construct the playground and also committed to build a clubhouse with rest rooms, showers, lockers and an auditorium. The City committed $15,000 to the project.
When it was opened on October 1, 1925, the playground was hailed as "one of the best in the United States." Over 10,000 people attended the opening, including 1,000 children who took part in a huge game of tag. Lion's Field has remained an active recreation center, now geared toward Senior Citizens, for 72 years. It is guarded by a proud marble lion designed by San Antonio's master sculptor and Lions Club member, Louis Rodriguez. On its base, the lion stands eight feet tall, is 14 feet long and is made of Italian marble.
The lion, which had been a Broadway landmark since 1925, was completely knocked off its base and lost all four legs and its tail after a tree fell on it during the July 2002 floods.
It was returned after a six month absence after being restored by Lupe Rodriguez of Rodriguez Brothers Memorial. He is the nephew of the original sculptor, Louis Rodriguez.

the best reviews
their picks
what to buy
Don't like to iron, but also don't want to look like you just rolled out of bed? A garment steamer might be the answer. They're quick and easy to use and offer a smooth, pressed look -- taking just minutes to steam away the wrinkles in your clothes -- without the hassle of setting up an iron and ironing board. They can also serve to freshen clothes between trips to the dry cleaner, thus saving money on dry cleaning costs. Some claim to remove odors as well.
Garment steamers come in two styles: upright floor units and handheld steamers. Both have refillable water tanks. Full-size standing steamers resemble canister vacuums, with a water tank that is connected to a steam nozzle with a long hose. Handheld steamers look similar to a pitcher, with a nozzle in place of the spout. Most upright steamers have a built-in rack or hanger for hanging clothes while steaming them.
In addition to knocking wrinkles out of clothing, garment steamers are useful for removing wrinkles from difficult-to-iron items, such as drapes and bed skirts, and, unlike an iron, they can be used on delicate fabrics like velvet and silk. Upright floor models take up more space, but they usually have caster-type wheels that make it easy to move them from room to room. Some have telescoping racks to fold down for a smaller footprint. Handheld steamers are useful for travel and quick touch-ups but will require refills more often.
Most experts agree that a garment steamer cannot replace a steam iron, though it can be a useful appliance. Clothes steamers damage fabric less than frequent pressing, but they can't give that creased look that a good steam iron can, and they're not the best for detail work like collars and cuffs. If you like the sharp-pressed look, see our report on steam irons.
Handheld garment steamers are popular with travelers. Business travelers especially appreciate the convenience of a lightweight, compact garment steamer to smooth the suitcase wrinkles out of their clothes without having to drag the iron out of the hotel closet. Handheld steamers can also be handy in the home setting to steam curtains and draperies and do smaller steaming jobs. There are a number of reviews from owners who say they use a handheld steamer exclusively and some who say they've replaced their iron with a compact steamer.
The price of a garment steamer varies depending upon size. Larger steamers can cost more than $150, while our least expensive handheld model is a mere $20. Bigger jobs require bigger tanks, which means a higher price, but these larger models can handle big jobs and steam for an hour or more.
ConsumerSearch has analyzed expert reviews and hundreds of owner reviews to evaluate the features, ease of use and performance of dozens of garment steamers, narrowing it down to the best steamers and handheld steamers available.

Campus Master Plan
|Marquez Hall Photo by Nic Lehoux
The Colorado School of Mines Facilities Master Plan defines the university's physical needs associated with its strategic direction. It is a comprehensive and dynamic plan that provides the framework necessary to guide campus physical development.
The plan, originally developed in 2004 and reshaped in 2010, allows the campus to improve aesthetics, meet required space needs, plan for facility upgrades and improve site conditions.
Recently, Mines completed construction on an expansion of Brown Hall, which houses the engineering and mining engineering departments; Maple Hall, the first new residence hall on campus since 1978; Marquez Hall, home of the Petroleum Engineering Department; and the W. Lloyd Wright Student Wellness Center.
Some exciting projects in design include:
- Elm Street Residence and Dining Hall: A 200-bed residence hall planned on the site between Maple Street and Elm Street and 18th. The 500-seat dining hall will be directly off Maple Street.
- Alumni Hall: A new home for the Alumni Association and the Foundation. It is planned to be west of Public Safety and east of Weaver Towers.
Other recent projects include:
- Aspen Hall: A residence hall receiving an interior renovation to house additional students.
- Center for Academic Services and Advising (CASA): The old Coulter Health Center was renovated to provide offices and 24-hour study and tutor areas for one of the newest departments on campus.
For more information, see the Mines Master Plan 2010.

Q:I am looking to install this flooring in my 3 seasons room. I live in NH, where it will get fairly hot and cold during both seasons. Is this ok to install for all weather temps?
1 answer
A:Wood flooring is a dynamic material subject to changes in dimension as a result of changes in humidity in the surrounding environment. It is recommended that the rooms that will have prefinished wood installed be climate controlled with temperatures of 50 to 80 degrees F., preferably 65 to 75 degrees F. humidity of 30% to 50% maintained. In addition, the rooms should not be closed off from a normal air flow. Therefore with prefinished flooring, you will experience problems in a non-environmentally controlled area.
Q:I have an above ground cement slab i would like to use this on. Can i use this product in that application with a vapor barrier or other underlayment?
1 answer
A:Yes you must have a moisture barrier. A 6 to 8 mil poly sheeting moisture barrier should be laid for floating floors for an On or Below grade Concrete subfloor. Overlap seams 4-6" and tape with duct tape. Overlay perimeter 3-4" up wall.
Q:I'm wanting to use this in a bathroom. Will it be ok due to possibility of water spills?
1 answer
A:Unfortunately this item is not recommended for this application.
Q:Can this product be used on stairs
1 answer
A:Not recommend for full stairs. Nosing should only be used for a top-of-stairs transition.
Q:can this product be installed in a herringbone pattern?
1 answer
A:Unfortunately not.
Q:What is the density rating for this floor? Thank you.
1 answer
A:Here is the cork denisity for the floating floors
Q:Is this product suitable for installation in a finished basement with a sleeper stud subfloor? Also, with regards to the sealer/top coat of this product, how high is the VOC level?
1 answer
A:Please call our Tech and Installation Dept. @ (800) 366-4204 for a detailed answer to your question. Thank you for your inquiry.
Q:I am considering a laundry room floor that is gently sloped to a flush floor drain for spills and washing machine hose emergencies (rather than an ugly floor pan). While I intend to install a sub-floor waterproof pan like that in a tiled shower stall (regardless of floor finish), I am wondering if cork or bamboo would be recommended for this kind of exposure or if we should go with a ceramic tile. Thanks
1 answer
A:Tile would be the only way to go for this application.
Q:I did a little research on Cork flooring + don't know now about wanting cork flooring. I think my other option would be Bamboo as I want earth friendly. Is the Cork 100% cork now I forgot why + the other question is if the cork is sealed? I read 1 answer where the question was what about staining + r all the cork flooring sealed 2 protect against accidents?
1 answer
A:This product question would be better answered by our Product Specialist @ (800) 476-0007, they are better equipped to assist you in the selection process and are familiar with all of our
Q:How would this hold up to pet "accidents" (liquid). I'm afraid it would absorb the smell of urine. Also, would it hold up in an entry where there is a lot of traffic? Thanks!
1 answer
A:Despite today's advanced technology, water spills, dirt and other abrasive substances can damage a wood floor's finish. Location, traffic patterns, how often the floor is vacuumed and cleaned, children and/or pets are all factors that influence wear and durability.

Hubbard: The madness and determination of filmmakingWritten by Ian Hubbard | | email@example.com
Don't ever make a film unless you are willing to ride it off the cliff. Before you commit to the process, make damn sure you understand the madness and determination it will take to see a film through to the end. Realize that few will see your movie and fewer will care. A small handful of people will appreciate the effort, if you're lucky.
This is without mentioning the horrors and tribulations that wait with giddiness to destroy your dream of saying "Look everyone, I made a movie!" Once you agree to make a film, you release that little man in the back of your brain from his chains. He'll swing and swing and he'll keep swinging until you slump away, crumbled by defeat.
As hackneyed as it sounds, the only thing you can do is continue on. In the name of all that is good and holy, never stop until the credits roll and that bastard in your brain is sent wailing to the darkest corner of Hell.
That is what I have learned in the four years of working on "See You Next Tuesday," which is set to premiered Nov. 16, at the Ohio Theatre.
Yeah. Four years.
Excuse myself and the rest of the team while we sing "Hallelujah!" Funny thing is, this isn't even my movie. I've merely been a co-conspirator, an apostle to a man who calls himself the Messiah.
Joseph S. Vogt is no messiah, at least not in the biblical context. He's more of the Jim Jones mold, a man who embodies the psychosis and sheer will that has been the ethos of this filmmaking experience.
He just would not stop.
Once, after another setback in shooting, Vogt looked at me with a general's glare and said, "If you want out, do it now, because we commit ourselves to finishing this movie if we go forward. Whether or not I have to finish this movie by myself doesn't matter, because not only will this movie be made, it has to be made. We've come too far."
Every story you have heard about troubled movie shoots somehow all coalesced during the production of "See You Next Tuesday." There was a reason this beached whale took four years to resuscitate. We faced, and overcame, every obstacle imaginable: shooting cancellations, scheduling conflicts, dozens of script changes, zealous crew members, natural disasters, months of waiting and a pizza delivery guy who thought we were making a porno.
This film was declared dead three times. And every time a fresh face or a fresh idea would come in off the bench like Steve Kerr in the final three minutes and revive the production. This was not an artistic achievement, but an achievement of perseverance.
The production was fortunate enough to have a troupe of actors who were committed to running right off the cliff after us. Ms. Danielle Welty took the brunt of Mr. Vogt's wrath as the surrogate Shelley Duvall to his Stanley Kubrick.
During the most intense day of shooting, Ms. Welty willingly threw herself down a hill no less than 30 times until Mr. Vogt was satisfied. He's said on many occasions that his only regret with the film is his inability "to throw that bitch down the hill another 30 times to get the perfect shot."
Ms. Emily Johnson and Ms. Sophie Lewis were the two wild cards. As such, they were used sparsely but provided a bind in the film's narrative. In basketball terminology, they were the "sixth man" for the film: both only had a few minutes of playing time but provided five points and two rebounds apiece.
Honestly, though, this whole circus would not have taken off had Ms. Gina Arnez declined to take part. Volumes can be published about her poise while on set and her patience throughout this production. An accomplished performer in her own right, Ms. Arnez – with the help of her luscious-haired husband, David – transformed into the Lucy Ricardo hellion that Mr. Vogt was looking for.
She was the only person approached for her role, and without her this gravy train wouldn't have made it past that fateful night in the spring of 2009 when I and my accomplice Charlie Phouse agreed to participate in Mr. Vogt's grand scheme.
To fully explain the turmoil of this film in the hours leading up to its premiere is impossible. My word is only part of the puzzle and most of those late night and early morning memories are hazy at best. Forget sentiment, there is none to be had here. Let the audience cry when they admit they like the film, and mean it. The rest of us will be laughing all the way to 2018 – when the next film is slated for premiere, if everything goes right.

For regular viewers of this site -- and particularly the spawn.com message boards -- we've been teasing you for quite awhile now. Well, the teasing is over; it's time to get down to the nitty-gritty. We've got photography of all the figures in Series 27: The Art of Spawn and we're ready to share.
Here we go:
SPAWN -- issue 85 cover art
Based on artist Greg Capullo's dark, moody artwork for the cover to Spawn #85, this figure features an angry Spawn unleashing a violent scream from deep within the alleys of Rat City.
SPAWN -- issue 131 cover art
This figure is a direct translation of the cover art to Spawn #131 -- an instant fan-favorite, in which Spawn is draped in desert warfare-style headgear and holding a futuristic firearm.
SPAWN -- issue 119 interior art
Based on Angel Medina's rendition of a Hellspawn from another time (also a fan-favorite), this figure depicts a Spawn with a different feel and aesthetic than that of Al Simmons. Complete with a stylized "cowboy" hat, revolvers and spurs, the "Gunslinger" will no doubt be one of the most sought-after figures from Series 27.
WANDA 2 -- issue 65 interior art
Standing in a church, dressed in a beautiful white wedding gown, the love of Spawn's life will at long last be released to the public as part of a retail assortment (our previous Wanda figure was available only through the McFarlane Toys Collector's Club).
CLOWN 5 -- based on original art
With a devilish grin and an unmistakable aura of filth and evil, Spawn's arch-nemesis comes to life once again. Perched atop a pile of refuse and bones, this impish troublemaker is fully detailed and as wicked as ever.
VANDALIZER 2 -- based on original art
The brother of the Clown's alter-ego, the Violator, an updated version of the Vandalizer has long been requested by our fans. A massive beast, with lizard-like skin and claws and teeth ready to rip through any who would oppose him, the Vandalizer is one of McFarlane Toys' most monstrous figures to date.
SPAWN VS. AL SIMMONS DELUXE BOXED SET -- issue 86 cover art
Locked in a heated battle, Al Simmons and Spawn, two entities who are one fight against each other in a struggle for control over their future. This Deluxe Boxed Set includes both Al and Spawn in an amazing re-creation of Greg Capullo's stunning artwork from the cover to Spawn #86.
Enjoy the photography. These figures are set to hit retail shelves in late February 2005. Oh, and there will be a limited-edition Collector's Club exclusive figure to go along with this line represented another Spawn comic cover. We aren't prepared to reveal it yet ... but hang around and we'll clue you in soon.

Marathon Classic to offer kids' area, free police, fire, military entryWritten by Sarah Ottney | Editor in Chief | firstname.lastname@example.com
Kids' activities and free admission for active-duty military members, police officers and firefighters are among the changes planned for this year's Marathon Classic.
The best female golfers in the world will once again set their sights on Sylvania this summer as Highland Meadows Golf Club hosts the LPGA golf tournament July 17-20 and organizers are planning a few updates in an effort to appeal to as wide an audience as possible.
Admission for children 17 and younger has always been free with the purchase of an adult ticket, but new this year will be more activities for kids, said Director of Marketing Jim Decker.
"There's going to be lots of different things for kids that we've never really had in the past," Decker said. "The parents can have a great time (at the tournament) and obviously the kids can too. They can get up close to the golf and that type of thing, but especially the younger ones you want to keep them busy doing other things. It should be fun."
RELATED: Beatriz Recari visits Sylvania to host kids' clinic, talk Marathon Classic win
A schedule is still being finalized, but planned activities will include a scavenger hunt, mascot day, face painting and more, Decker said.
All active duty police officers, firefighters and military members will be admitted free along with one guest. In the past, active-duty military members have been admitted free, but this year the offer is also extended to active duty police officers and firefighters as well as for a guest.
"It's just a way of thanking them for all they do for us," Decker said.
Silverman said it means a lot to be able to give back to service members.
"That's what this tournament is all about, is giving back," Silverman said. "Not only do we raise funds for charity, but to be able to allow active service people into the tournament is just another way to help the community and provide an opportunity for people to come out and enjoy the greatest women golfers in the world."
Several local active military members will be recognized July 20 on the 18th green. The hole's pin flag will have a patriotic theme and will be held by a different military member during each group of golfers playing the hole.
"It's going to be a pretty neat thing," Decker said. "We're really excited to give recognition to those who serve us throughout their careers."
Another new addition will be the Labatt Blue Royale Party Deck at the 14th green. For a daily $50 ticket upgrade, guests will have access to a VIP area, drinks and snacks, Decker said.
"That will be fun," Silverman said.
"It's just going to be a nice add-on to all the fun stuff that already happens at 14," Decker said.
On Friday, the 14th hole transforms into Club 14, featuring caddie races, crowd banter, cheering and more.
"[The golfers] get a kick out of it," Silverman said. "Players appreciate when people are enthusiastic about being out here, as long as it's done tastefully. They love it. They love the attention. They appreciate it."
NASCAR legend Richard Petty will be on hand to sign autographs on July 17.
"That will be neat," Silverman said. "To have a legendary NASCAR person there might bring in a lot of new people who maybe haven't been out here."
Among the 144-woman field at the Marathon Classic, presented by Owens Corning and Owens-Illinois, will be defending champion Beatriz Recari of Spain, Toledo-born Stacy Lewis, currently ranked No. 1 in the world, teen phenom Lydia Ko, former champions So Yeon Ryu, Se Ri Pak, Na Yeon Choi, Paula Creamer and many more.
Last year's tournament raised $378,000 for 23 regional children's charities, Silverman said, and organizers are aiming to raise even more this year.
This year's charities are Special Kids Therapy, Ryan's Place, Findlay Family YMCA, Gliding Stars of Findlay, Specialized Alternatives for Families & Youth, Camp Fire Northwest Ohio, Down Syndrome Association of Greater Toledo, Putnam County Educational Service Center, CASA Monroe, Christian Clearing House, Friends of the Findlay-Hancock County Library, Mobile Meals of Toledo, CASA Toledo, The Arts Partnership of Hancock County, Junior Achievement, Children's Hunger Alliance and Ann Grady Services.
"Having Marathon as the title sponsor has been tremendous," Silverman said. "The tournament has never been in better financial standing and we want to raise as much money as we possibly can for children's charities in the area while putting on a first-class sporting event for the community."
Marathon's involvement goes beyond financial support, he said.
"They are engaged in the marketing of the event, the fundraising of the event, they've come up with new ideas," Silverman said.
Silverman said sponsorship sales have already exceeded goals.
"To know those sales are already committed is a great feeling. Now our attention focuses on the execution of the event," Silverman said.
The annual tournament generates millions of dollars in economic impact for the region each year, Silverman said.
Tickets are available online at marathonclassic.com or at local Kroger stores.
Ticket prices are $50 for a weekly grounds badge, $100 for a weekly clubhouse badge or $15 (Monday-Friday) to $20 (Saturday-Sunday) for daily passes. Kids 17 and younger are free with the purchase of an adult ticket. Active duty military, firefighters and police officers also get free admission along with one guest. When purchased in advance at Kroger stores, the weekly grounds badge is buy one, get one free, Decker said. All ticket proceeds go to the charity of your choice. Parking is $10 weekly or $5 daily.
Recari, who visited Sylvania on June 9 to host a kids' golf clinic and speak at a media luncheon, said she always enjoys playing at the Marathon Classic.
"I really feel this is a very special event," she said. "I always think the crowd you get here without being a major is amazing. You feel that the entire town cares for the tournament and they come for it and they want to watch you and they know your name."
"We're just excited," Silverman said. "We've got a great field, a great defending champion. Now we just want to get as many people out here as we can so they can enjoy these great professionals."

Hello all, my name is Jane and I work at Discount Ramps in the purchasing department as Jeff's assistant. My job is to work with our manufactures to deliver the best quality product to our wonderful Discount Ramps customers. I also view the purchasing department as having internal customers; these are my co-workers here at DRC. My job is to work well with them and follow through on their requests of our vendors. I love working in the purchasing department-every day comes with a new challenge to improve our company internally and externally. I have never had one day the same as the last and I love the variety.
After finishing my degree in business management, I joined the team at Discount Ramps in May of 2011. I thoroughly love working here and this is truly a team effort; I always feel my opinion matters. The team of managers that is in place here is a dream team, they are always looking to encourage ideas from their members to help the department grow in the right direction. This company really has no boundaries on growth, which is one of my favorite parts about working here. We truly have no walls to hold us back. We deliver a great quality product to our customers and we continue to grow in an economy that is not. I also enjoy being a part of a company that helps the disabled be more mobile in the world around them with our wheelchair ramps and wheelchair carriers.
Outside of work, I have been married for 22 years and have two wonderful girls ages 16 and 12. We live on what has become quite a little hobby farm with horses, ducks, cats, rabbits, and of course, what farm would not be complete without a dog to chase everybody around–that is our Lola. In our free time, we love to see this great country by way of camping with family and friends. We have been as far east as Maine, as far west as Yellowstone, as far south as Missouri, and as far north as Canada with a lot of great places in between. We feel the best way to teach our girls about North America is to experience it firsthand.

Tito Ortiz: "We are waiting for the UFC to release Cyborg."
UFC Hall-of-Famer Tito Ortiz revealed today on Inside MMA that he is waiting for the UFC to officially release former Strikeforce featherweight champion Cristiane Santos from her UFC contract.
Santos was brought to the UFC to compete in their newly inaugurated bantamweight division and to challenge champion Ronda Rousey in a much anticipate superfight, however, the former featherweight champion refused to drop down to 135 lbs citing an inability to make the cut.
UFC president Dana White went as far as hiring Mike Dolce to help Santos make the cut from 165 lbs to 135 lbs. Dolce stated that she could have easily made the weight.
However, Santos and her manage Ortiz refused to endanger Santos' life by cutting the extra weight.
Due to Santos inability to make the bantamweight division, the UFC has elected to release her from her UFC contract.

If you're a youngster, hearing "The Hustle" may bring to mind wedding receptions and oldies radio stations. For the more seasoned, however, it brings to mind bell-bottom jeans, wide lapels, and spinning glitterballs. Harmonix knows how the power of music and dance can return you to another era. Dance isn't just an action you perform--it's a pop culture touchstone that recalls years, and perhaps entire decades.
Enter Dance Central 3, Harmonix's portal to the past. It's a celebration of past eras of dance, packaged in a cheesy tongue-in-cheek story involving the top-secret Dance Central Intelligence (better known as the DCI, of course). The evil Dr. Tan has returned as your nemesis, his hate of artistic expression far surpassing that of such staunch dance-despisers as Footloose's Reverend Moore and Dirty Dancing's Dr. Houseman. But how to defeat such a madman? Well, by learning dance crazes, of course!
So Dance Central 3 is clearly going down the nutty path, but based on what we saw when the team dropped by to show off the upcoming Kinect game, that can only be a good thing. The time-hopping story winks at the audience, the over-the-top cutscenes skewering every cliche in the book. It was hard not to giggle, and that's before the dancing even started. Harmonix's self-professed goal was to "bump up the ridiculous," and the cinematics we saw indicated that the statement was more than just lip service. The story begins with you receiving a mysterious invitation to a dance party, where you show off your moves to the tune of "Bass Down Low." Before you know it, the DCI is sending you into the past to defend against dance crimes (oh, what a terrible world in which criminals must use dance for the powers of evil).
The story might be crazy, but its goal is noble: to provide cultural context for your gyrations. When you return to the 1970s, you're not just dancing along with "Burn Baby Burn" or "I Will Survive"--you're doing it in an aesthetically appropriate roller rink. The layout then changes based on your performance, so roller rink becomes discotheque should you dance impressively enough. But your smooth moves do more than just immerse you in the time period--they also allow you to unlock crazes. These are iconic dances (think the Macarena, for instance, or The Hustle) that allow you to return to the present if you perform them well enough. Before you craze the night away, however, you need to do a little sequencing minigame to unlock it.
Even the 2010s have a craze, as it turns out: one created specifically for Dance Central 3 by Usher, who surprised Harmonix with his elaborate moves and considerable talent. In fact, should you feel that the previous Dance Central games just weren't hard enough, you'll be pumped to hear that Usher pushed the bar, and you'll encounter some truly hard routines. If that sounds intimidating, you can relax: the game has novices covered with beginner mode, which is really easy, but it lacks craze moves and so isn't available in the game's guffaw-inducing story.
That's OK, though, considering there are so many ways to play, and you're always gaining experience that lets you unlock new outfits and other nifty goodies. Make Your Move lets you butt heads with your friends in a game of Harmonix-style H.O.R.S.E., in which you create a move, and your buddy must duplicate it. Ultimately, these individual moves are combined into full dances, and hilarity inevitably ensues as each dancer tries to link their steps and lunges into a single fluid routine. Crew Throwdowns allow for even more self-expression, pitting teams of up to two players each against each other in full-on battle in which you build combos while trying to break those of your opponent. It's worth noting how easy the interface made it to get started in an instant: all we had to do was walk in front of the Kinect sensor, and it accommodated us--no fuss, no muss. Getting started? As simple as high-fiving your buddy. How appropriate for a friendly bit of competitive dancing.
If all this sounds exhausting and you'd rather strike a pose, you can do that too, though as it turns out, Madonna lied in the lyrics of "Vogue": there is, indeed, something to it. Players can compete by mimicking poses--some fairly simple, others more elaborate. A single stance sounds easy enough, but if you're not particularly in control of every awkward muscle in your entirely too clumsy body (not that this author would admit to such a thing), this requires more coordination than you'd expect. And of course, if you just want to have a good time (girls just wanna have fun, after all), then Start the Party mode gets the music going and the muscles moving. Just walk on and shimmy, shaking your booty to the tune of Shannon's "Let the Music Play" or TLC's "Ain't Too Proud to Beg." Want to have an '80s party? Then use the dynamic playlist feature to make it happen, and throw in songs from the previous Dance Central Games: they're all compatible with Dance Central 3.
But what's a party without laughter? That might be the magic touch here, depending on how well Harmonix pulls off its hysterically insane tale of time-traveling secret agents out to defeat a mad genius with the power of self-expression. The whole thing had us giggling, but this isn't a case where you're laughing at the game, but rather laughing with it. Expect to bust a gut, along with some moves, on October 16.

What is an All in One Protein?
All in One The Works™ Advanced is a cutting-edge performance blend designed to help increase lean muscle mass whilst keeping your body fat low at the same time. Most muscle building formulas on the market rely on creating a calorie surplus to increase muscle, but this may also increase unwanted fat at the same time. All in One The Works™ Advanced does not do this, and instead contains ingredients proven to aid muscle growth and repair without the need for more calories. These researched ingredients include Creapure® Creatine Monohydrate, Glutamine and HMB and ultimately ensure you only build quality lean muscle with no unwanted fat.
What are the Benefits of an All in One Protein?
This ground-breaking formula has been created using the finest grade ingredients for maximum efficacy which delivers an exceptional nutritional profile. Looking at the macronutrient profile, The Works™ protein composition includes whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate, resulting in over 62g of quality protein per daily serving. Then to provide a superior source of body fuel, we have developed the unique 'TPW™ 3 Phase Carb System'. This innovative carb blend offers a staged and perfectly balanced ratio of pure fine oats to provide a sustained release of energy, plus waxy maize and dextrose to help replenish muscle glycogen stores quickly.
Key Active Ingredients in All in One The Works™ Advanced
Specifically looking at the active ingredients contained within The Works™, to help you better understand the theory and science behind their inclusion, below we've listed each and the mechanism by which it helps the muscles grow and repair:
- Creapure® (5g per serving) - Purest micronized creatine monohydrate available can help improve strength, power and size.
- Glutamine (5g per serving) - The most prevalent amino acid found in the muscles, this is essential for supporting the body and the immune system during periods of intense training.
- HMB (1.5g per serving) - An amino acid shown to kick start muscle recovery and reduce muscle breakdown and muscle degradation post intense training.
- Taurine (2g per serving) - Plays an important role in protein synthesis, cell hydration and cardiac function.
- MCT's (1.5g per serving) - Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) have been shown to act more like a carbohydrate than a fatty acid and serve as a fuel supply to build quality muscle. What's more they've also been shown to have a 'thermic effect'. This means they actually burn calories just through, digestion further helping you increase muscle mass whilst lowering your body fat.
What's The Best Flavor All in One Protein?
Our premium grade whey protein is made from vegetarian sweet cheese, sourced directly from Europe's leading whey protein manufacturer. It is manufactured at our state of the art facility right here in the UK with our widely acclaimed all natural flavours and colours to create the finest quality whey protein. Unlike other brands on the market today who use artificial colours and flavours, we invest in all natural ones as we believe the taste and results are superior.

As we produce all our protein formulas ourselves, each whey protein offers the ultimate in freshness.

What Research is There for All in One Protein?
"The International Olympic Committee Consensus on Sports Nutrition states to support a strength or speed based workout routine athletes require 1.7grams of protein per kg of bodyweight per day. Interestingly research conducted at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada later found that endurance athletes require a greater (or equal) intake of protein than strength athletes to prevent protein catabolism during exercise."
Research: Food, Nutrition and Sports Performance II: The International Olympic Committee Consensus on Sports Nutrition (Ron Maughan et al, 2004).

A. As with so many things in life, if you don't ask the right questions, you won't get the right answers! The quality of ingredient can vary significantly and therefore the potency will do too. In addition, just because a product may be called pure it doesn't mean that it necessarily is.

Q. Can I use The Works™ with other supplements?
A. Yes. TPW™ Elite Man and Omega 3 work well with The Works™.
Q. Do I need to take any other supplements with The Works™?
A. No. We have developed a complete All-in-One supplement so you don't have to add anything else!

Q. Who should take / benefit from using The Works™?
A. Bodybuilders and strength athletes. Endurance athletes. Those new to weight training. People involved in team sports.

Choco silk is very rich tho but tastes great.
Seen results and they are amazing. better muscle growth and definition!
Definatley recommend to anyone and everyone
The shakes are smooth, filling and tasty. I have tried other brands in choc flavour and they were so bloating it was off putting. This little beast is refreshing with water after a sesh and smooth with milk for a snack.
Always choose TPW on the strenght of there All in one.
Compared to the competition there is only one winner.
TPW - For £69.99 (4kg bag) you get 56 servings or 28 days worth with the recommended 2 servings a day.
Brand A for £65.99 (1.2kg) you get 20 servings with the recommended one serving a day.
Brand B for £55 (1.2kg) you get 20 servings 10 to 20 days depending on if you have the recommended 1 to 2 servings a day.
All three have comparable ingredients but for the cost per serving TPW All In One The Works Advanced can not be beaten!
Delivery was super fast also.. opted for 3- 5 day delivery and received it less than 24 hours later!
Id rate this product 6 stars if I could.. overall great company with great products.
I find the TPW products competitively priced and by far and away the best tasting of all the supplement brands I have tried so far, I went for the banana smooth, very nice indeed.
Its a bit to early to tell on the effectiveness, however in comparison to previous other brand purchases I have made the ingredient list was my determining factoe when buying.
Will be using TPW for all my supplement orders form now on.
With regards this product, it taste great, mixes well. Currently using it on a bulking phase, and I have gained around 6Ilbs of lean muscle with the help of this product, so combined with the right diet and training program it ca nreally help to make a big difference.
Taste - 4/5
Mix ability - 5/5
Results - 5/5

Gains have been significantly better than with the other protein powders I've used.
And very fast delivery
Not in full training yet so only taking one shake a day and have certainly seen my weight increase so does what it says on the tin (as they say!)

How do you guys make these taste so good?!
Very highly recommend if you like chocolate!
- 0 of 1 people found this review helpful
Picked the 3-5 day delivery, it arrived the day after (less than 24 hours!) So superb there!
The actual product itself -
First thing I wanted to do was try it, cherry bakewell flavour, and it was lovely. Have it with milk or water, tastes great, mixes perfectly (with the free shaker and ball they threw in!) I look forward to drinking this.
I have two a day (If I can't get food at work) but use this as a supplement, not a meal replacement where I can, though I ensure to always have at least one due to the excellent mix of ingredients such as creapure!
I have increased 2 pounds in 2 weeks (so on target) but then I eat very well and train hard (5 times a week) fat is staying off and strength is going up - just down to the product? Who knows; but it's a huge help. I was not able to do that well before with just food so worth every penny in my opinion.
Summary -
Not the cheapest, but for ingredients, taste and mix-ability one of the best on the market, I've tried the competitors and won't be going back. Chocolate next, can't wait
- 1 of 1 people found this review helpful
Chose choc-mint and wow.....I was NOT disappointed! These guys continue to impress and exceed expectation. Now only use 100% TPW products.
- 1 of 1 people found this review helpful
The only way to improve it would be to feature more detailed nutrition information of the packaging, such as how much Creapure (etc) there is per serving for easy reference, but this isn't a deal breaker.
Ordered some of the cherry bakewell flavour now too so hopefully this will be just as good!
As for gains, I've only had one shake writing this so can't comment on that yet...

(SportsNetwork.com) - The Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat will renew their
budding rivalry Tuesday night when the Eastern Conference powerhouses meet at
Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
These two teams are clearly ahead of all others in the East. The Atlanta Hawks
are third in the conference and trail the Heat, who are second, by five games.
This will be the first meeting between the two squads since last season's
brutal Eastern Conference Finals. The Heat prevailed in seven games, but the
Pacers made them earn every second of that glory.
The Conference Finals aren't on Tuesday, but this game offers varying degrees
of importance to the combatants.
"We're trying to earn the one-seed and obviously Miami is capable of going on
a 27-game win streak as they proved last year," said Pacers coach Frank Vogel.
"We feel like we're one of the best teams in the NBA. The head-to-head
matchups are going to be important to earn the one-seed. It does carry a
little more weight than most regular season games, so we're approaching it
that way."
It's a good approach for the team that hasn't won back-to-back NBA titles.
Naturally, the champions don't see the game quite as significantly.
"I don't get too much involved in regular-season matchups, especially early in
December," said LeBron James. "They're a great team right now. We're trying to
get to our full potential. We'll see what we can do. We look forward to the
opportunity to go in there and play on Tuesday, but it's not like it's a
statement game for us."
The Pacers return home from an incredibly difficult five-game road trip. They
went 3-2 with huge wins over the Los Angeles Clippers and San Antonio Spurs
and understandable losses against the Portland Trail Blazers and Oklahoma City
The game against the Thunder Sunday was a tough one for the Pacers. It was the
end of the trip and just one day removed from a 111-100 victory over the
Spurs. The Thunder handed the Pacers their worst loss of the season, a 118-94
a setback.
"I think it was their defense that was the difference. They had great energy
and they took us out of a lot of our stuff," said Vogel.
OKC led by 21 after three quarters and the Pacers, the league's best defensive
team, allowed the Thunder to shoot 61 percent from the field. To coach Vogel's
point, the Thunder held the Pacers to 40 percent shooting.
Paul George led the Pacers with 32 points, followed by 12 from Roy Hibbert and
11 from David West. No other Indiana player managed double figures.
The Heat will close out a four-game road trip Tuesday. They lost the opener to
the Chicago Bulls, but have won two straight over the Minnesota Timberwolves
and Detroit Pistons.
Miami trounced Detroit at The Palace of Auburn Hills Sunday, 110-95. It was
sweet revenge for a home loss to the Pistons on Tuesday.
James had 24 points, nine assists and seven rebounds. Ray Allen, who started
in place of Dwyane Wade, managed 18 points, while Chris Bosh netted 16. Chris
Anderson and Roger Mason, Jr. both had double figures off the bench.
The Pacers took two of three regular-season matchups from Miami last season
and both wins were at home. Indiana is 9-0 at home this season and Miami has
dropped three in a row at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
