Would love either, but could really use the iPhone 5 case. I have been in need of something more protecting, with some style and that I can use in the office. Also something that can make my phone stand for those long trips. This is one of the slickest I have seen. Would be happy to review it for you if given the chance. Kind Regards!
I am interested to the ipad mini version of this case. That would be a wonderful case for my wife's ipad mini as she always wanted to be able to keep the ipad mini almost vertical while on a table. Real nice cases!
I still have no case for my iphone 5 since I have not found a case I would even consider until I saw this one.
iPad Mini.... Looks light weight and gives protection on both sides and stylish. Thanks for the chance to win one!
I want the Element Case Soft-Tec wallet for iPhone 5. I like how it covers the screen and it can be used as a stand.
I would absolutely love the Element Case Soft-Tec wallet for my iPad mini because I'm an English teacher that enjoys using technology in the class so a lot of my students use my iPad. I would feel a lot more relieved is this case would protect the most fun toy in the class.
I'd love one!
I'd love one for my iphone 5!
I'd love the iPhone 5 version. Looks really modern and professional while not adding much bulk.

Looks very functional. Wanna try it out!
The cases look great. I opt for the iphone 5 Soft-Tec Wallet. Unique, Stylish, Protective, and Added utility of the Wallet. It's a fantastic accessory for my iphone 5.
iPhone 5 - Card slots!
I love that iPad mini case. I've seen one before and they feel absolutely amazing. The texture is a lot better than that faux leather you find on so many cases.
I'de love one for my iphone 5, then i could stop using my wallet and use that instead
Wow, the case for iPhone 5 looks great! I've been looking for a nice wallet-like case for a while and this one is the best I've seen! I would love to wrap my iPhone and credit cards in this beautiful case!
Awesome case I would like the iPhone 5 case if possible. All the features are great but the best one in my opinion is the plush synthetic suede interior. This feature looks like it would give great protection to my iphone 5.other than that great case. Great job!!
iPad mini case for its suede interior!
I like the ballistic material! I was hoping Tumi would make an in iPhone case using it, but the functionality in Element's case seems to be a winner here.
I like the iphone5 for my wife.
I like the iPhone 5 case with the card slots.
The iPhone 5 Case, and I like the folding design.
iPhone 5. Lanyard...LANYARD!! Also practical for carrying debit/credit card and ID card. But...LANYARD!!
I've always wanted to try one of the wallets for my phone! that would be awesome!
Hi I really would want an ipad mini element case so my little brother finally will have a case!! Thanks!! :) :)
I want the iPhone 5 one. so awesome and sleek looking. Great protection and some simple but great features.
I would love to have of of these for my iPhone 5! I love that the case fully encloses the phone and that I can get rid of my wallet!
I would like the Iphone 5 case, I love the slim lightweight design!
I'd love to have the iPhone 5 case. I tried the Twelve South Surface Pad and though it was beautiful, I can use it with my windshield mount and know I'll ruin it taking it off and on repeatedly. Having used other Element cases with my previous iPhone 4, I know this is a high quality case, it can be easily removed, and it has a cutout for the speaker so you can talk with the cover closed. Great design!
Would not purchase. Overpriced.
iPad mini
The overall look is fantastic!
I would love the the soft case for my iPhone 5 very elegant and stylus
I would really like the one for the iPhone 5 if I had an iPhone 5. Great looking and I really like the idea of the slots for cards. Both are sharp looking and seem to be great on protecting either device. I would be happy with either of the products.
Really like the iPad mini case, especially with the Tech-Grip covering.
I would like the Element Case Soft-Tec wallet for iPhone 5. I love the idea of the credit card slots that are available and the stylish suede that protects the screen.
WOW - obviously we all need the Soft-Tec Wallet for Apple iPhone 5 - at that price point it will sell out
iPhone 5, please. I love the suede interior.
iPad Mini Please, the built stand would be very handy.
iPad Mini, please. I plan to buy iPad Mini.
iPhone 5 Please! I like the fact that it has card slots, so its like a wallet and and iPhone case always wanted one of these. Looks like high quality material too!
iPad mini case for me. I like how there is an adjustable stand. From the picture it seems to be better than the official apple cover.
iPhone 5 case would be fantastic! Love the adjustable stand!
The Element Case Soft-Tec wallet for iPhone 5 please? I like the card slots, could be useful when I do not want to carry a wallet around if I go somewhere.
This case is awesome looking!! High end materials, the fit and finish looks spot on (very closely resembles the Tumi case for iPad mini). I think my favorite feature that I can tell from the description is the fact that because the outer edge is rubberized, it provides enough friction against the soft suede lining to allow for an almost infinite amount of adjustability when it comes to viewing angle. That right there makes this case far superior to the couple of cases I have already purchased for my mini. I believe I would very much enjoy the iPad mini version of this awesome looking case!!
iPhone 5 please, looks like a great product!
Thanks imore
iPhone 5 please. Been eying this since it was released. Looks unique to anything else on the market.
I can't decide which I would like. They are both pretty awesome! If it came down to it i would pick the case for the iPhone 5! Element cases are the best!
I would love the elemen case for my iphone 5. I have always wanted a case that folds into a nice video stand. I love to watch Netflix on my dinner breaks at work, and this case would be the perfect companion!
I'd love the iPhone 5 case. I'm not usually a fan of cases, but this looks like it'd actually protect the phone without adding a ton of bulk, AND when you aren't using it as a case, it can function as a stand without a dumb kickstand piece that'll break off.
It's like Mitch Hedberg said: "I like a escalator, man, 'cause an escalator can never break. It can only become stairs."
For me, the card slots would make this a must-have. I'm in the market to replace my wallet right now and currently BookBook is my number one choice based on experiences and recommendations.
I'd love to have one of these to change my mind.
I'm partial to the iPhone 5 case. Would double as a wallet. And beyond that, my iphone takes much more of beating than my iPad.
beautiful case, I would love it for my iPhone 5!
I like the feature for the iPhone 5 case where there's an insert for a lanyard or any keyring accessory. Very few cases have that and I have to resort to Japanese or Korean cases for something like that. Very cool! I hope I can win one! :D
I would love one of these sleek and beautiful cases to protect my iPad mini. This case if by far the best I've seen in quality, style and uses. Please may I have one?
I love the iPhone 5 wallet case! It looks beautiful and according to Larry Greenberg's review, is one of the best cases! Love the magnetic cover!
iPad Mini! Looks great, limitless viewing angles
iPhone 5 case. I like the credit card/Cash holders on the inside and the wrap around design.
iPhone 5 Soft-Tec Wallet, the ID/Currency/Card slots are brilliant!
The grip and the card slots do it for me! Would love the iPhone 5 case. Thanks for the opportunity.
Element cases are all about protection. My old iPhone 4 has a Element Black Ops case that I love and really miss. So I'd very much like to protect my new iPhone 5 with this latest case. I take very good care of my electronics and this looks like the perfect case to protect it in style. :)
The iPhone 5 case looks amazing!
The Element Case Soft-Tec for the iPad mini is my choice! I work in education and will have my work desktop PC and my iPad mini side by side for office work and then stand would be a tremendous asset to my work! Being able to easily see the data on my iPad mini and work on a variety of files on the PC would help my work flow. Also being able to close it up and carry it with me to meetings as I walk across campus is nice. The material itself looks high quality so the added wow factor is there too. Looks like a great product all around and would help my work flow so, yes...I'd love one! Thanks guys.
The iPhone case is sweet! Love the card slots and the stand is perfect for watching Hulu!
so i own both an iphone 5 and ipad mini. i think i would like to have both to match both my idevices. but if i only get to choose one i would take the iphone 5 one. its different. i like the design. i like the fact that i could set it up in portrait mode and watch videos while i place it on a table. so yeh, good luck everyone!
I'd like the Iphone 5 version, and I like the fact that you can also hold your ID or credit cards in the case as well making it a lot less that you have to carry around with you.
I'd like the iPad mini case.
The fact it uses the magnets for the display turn on feature coupled with the soft lining back to protect the mini from scratching are great together.
iPhone 5 case....lanyard looks pretty slick.
iphone 5!! the case looks amazing love the stand option!!
I have an iPhone 5 and would love this Element case for the slim, lightweight design that still protects the screen and body of my device from scratches. Besides, I live in Lubbock, Texas, home of the Texas Tech Red Raiders and Lady Raiders! I bleed red and black!
I love the way they combined the sleek design and functionality for the iPhone 5 case. The two credit card slots in the case is also an awesome feature.
Oh nice, I want that iPhone case so bad. It would be awesome to be able to go out without having to take my wallet with me. Just my iPhone + wallet. It would also be a good way to hide al the dents on my iPhone 5:(
That iPhone 5 case looks amazing :-).
I love the red background, it makes the product feel open and inviting. iPhone 5 is sick!
I would opt for the iPad Mini Soft-Tec case to give to my son when he graduates from the University of Minnesota in May after paying his own way. I won't be upgrading to an iPhone 5 (or 6 or 7) anytime soon, because I am so in love with my orange/silver Element Vapor Pro case on my 4s. I don't want to give it up!
def like the iphone 5 case.. however not sure how wallet and phone works for men!! so would liek to win and see if it can change my view on wallet cases for men.. ive only seen women use these types of cases.
iPhone 5 case, please.
I'd love to win an iPad Mini case. I like the textured grip so I don't drop it and destroy the screen.
Element Soft-Tec Wallet for iPhone 5 here. I'd like to carry my phone and a couple cards at night without a wallet.
iPhone 5 case please!! Best feature: It's an Element Case product... Had one for my 4s and absolutely love their quality.
iPad mini for me. I really like the formfactor. Minimal and fully protected but able to access everything you need. Thanks!
Would really like the iphone 5 case, the red matches my ipad 4 case and the kick stand is exactly what i need for watching videos while working on homework :)
A snickers.
An apple.
An upturned bowl.
A packet of crisps.
Cleverly folded socks.
Whilst these objects try VERY hard to participate in holding up my phone for FaceTime'n...
It is time this nonsense ends.
Now I see a Tech Grip™, stable, folding and tilting FaceTime'n magical wondrous wallet case!
Removing current case in anticipation ;)
No seriously. I need this case! Please help me!
iPhone 5 case please! Thank you guys ever so much :)
Keep it up.
I have to say I like the outside texture (the Tech Grip) for the iPhone 5
the Iphone 5 would be fanstasic...
IPhone 5 case

First of all I have an iPhone 5 16Gb and I am a maniac with the care and manteinance of my phone, the phone has with me about a month and is super clean, I never drop it, or I did a minimal scratch. The "Soft-Tec Wallet for Apple iPhone 5" have slots to put into credit card or ID, that is what I love of the case, of course the capacity of stand it's another feature very helpful, the design it's very beautiful.
Please guys iphone five pleaseeeeeeeee...
I'd love a Soft-Tec Wallet for my iPhone because the difficulty of finding a good quality cases for left-handed users is too damn high! I've yet to find one that fits the bill properly but I am actively looking as I really do want to protect my 5 from getting any more 'dings' on it than it already has. :( But seriously, this case looks really great for all sorts of reasons, including the slots for a couple of credit cards in there too. :)
I would love this case for my iPhone 5. My favorite features are pretty much everything about this case. It is a wallet case which is useful, it has a great design to it, and it has a built-in kickstand from folding it. I would get this case either way and I haven't seen a great wallet case like this one before with an attractive design to it.
I'd like the Soft-Tec Wallet for iPhone, because it features a Durable Tech-Grip covering and it has a nice, lightweight design.
Soft-Tec Wallet for iPhone 5 is awesome. Love the foldable stand that it includes. Like a 3 in 1 case.
I want the iPhone5 case! The ID/card slots and lanyard will come in handy!

iPhone 5 version, favorite feature is probably the stand, love the way it's done.
iPhone 5 and to Actually protect my phone so I won't shatter my screen again!

they built an altar east of the Jordan those 21/2 tribes as a wittness...later they were accused of rebellion over it.....what do you think the spiritual significance is as to the promised land..and tol on both sides of the Jordan
Isaiah's prophecy about every mountain and hill being made low has come to pass. Those who misinterpret prophecy, who practice a "dumbing down" approach to interpretation, claiming to have a "literal" view, have made those prophecies low, and brought them into reproach, and a derision in the world. IMO.Doug
Christ's kingdom is the stone that smote the metallic image in the dream of Nebuchadnezzar, which Daniel interpreted as representing the successive world kingdoms. [Daniel 2:35] The stone "became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth." Zechariah wrote: "And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it." [Zech. 12:3] Here, the "burdensome stone" is the same one that is mentioned in Daniel 2:35. It is the kingdom of Christ, which was raised up when Jesus ascended to heaven, after he rose from the grave, as foretold in Isaiah 2:2. That is when Jerusalem became the heavenly city. Belief in dispensationalism, however, blinds people to this great truth.DougThe stone exists at the same time as these kings. The preterist cannot explain who these 10 toes are, despite the benefit of hindsight/history.A dispensation believes these 10 kings are future and the stone also.The great mountain that fills the earth is Christs millenium rule of peace, for the whole Earth. With no competing empires of antichrist powers.

Tips & ideas
Begin your search for tires by identifying which kind of vehicle you are buying tires for or if you need winter tires. Also, consider analyzing your potential driving conditions and which tires might be necessary. Then, choose the type of tire that suits your driving style and vehicle the best.
These tires typically emphasize benefits such as a comfortable ride, long life, dependability and traction performance in a variety of weather conditions.
The "P" designates passenger tires. "LT" designates light-truck tires. Here's what the numbers indicate:
Touring tires offer enhanced performance combined with excellent ride quality. These tires typically have a slightly lower profile and wider tread than an equivalent passenger tire for improved handling and stability at higher speeds.
All tires in this category have higher speed ratings. Typical speed ratings range from H (up to 130 MPH) to Z (up to 149 MPH). These tires usually come in lower profiles and have wider treads and stiffer sidewalls for improved cornering response and stability. To truly appreciate the benefits of ultra high-performance tires, they must be matched to ultra high-performance vehicle suspensions.
Tires for trucks or SUVs usually have a higher load capacity than other tires. Load capacity is controlled by how much air volume is in the tire and at what pressure. Tire sizes that begin with a "P" (passenger) are designed to operate at lower pressures and loads than the same size that begins with "LT" (light truck). The "P" will normally have a smoother ride, but the "LT" will carry a larger load. You can differentiate them by their type of road application: on-highway, on-/off-highway (all-terrain) and off-highway (off-road). Typically, on-highway tires have more of a rib tread design, and off-highway tires have a more aggressive blocky or chunky tread design. Choose the tires that best fit your driving conditions, but also ensure they have the proper load index and speed rating.
If you drive in winter climates, you'll want your tires to handle a wide range of potential winter conditions, including snow, ice, slush, rain, freezing rain and, of course, dry highways. Winter tires today utilize tread compounds that remain soft and pliable in the cold for reliable snow and ice traction without the need for studded tires.
Note:Winter tires should be purchased in sets of four.
Ready to buy some tires? You can search our Tire Finder by vehicle or by tire size. To search by vehicle, simply enter the make, model and year of your vehicle. To search by size, enter your vehicle's current tire size or the size you're looking for.

Ryan Scott Ottney
PDT Staff Writer
In 2005, an unlikely team of high school boys in Gibsonburg, Ohio, had one of their worst baseball seasons ever with a first-year coach, only to come back in tournament play to win the state championship. Their amazing true-story inspired a book and movie, titled "Gibsonburg," and director Bob Mahaffey was promoting the film at Portsmouth 8 Cinema Friday afternoon.
But the amazing success of the newcomer writer and director is just as impressive.
"They won six games during the regular season. They lost 17 games — 13 in a row. They were (eliminated) seven times (for mercy rule surpassing the run-threshold), and they lost the last game of the regular season by a score of 17-to-0," Mahaffey said. "In the state of Ohio, every high school baseball team gets the opportunity to play in the sectional tournament. If you win, you go to districts and if you win districts you go to regional."
That's exactly what happened in Gibsonburg, making the first and only team in the United States to win the state championship with a losing record. Mahaffey said it was a magical and unbelievable series of events.
"I'm from around that area and I just heard about the story, but when I heard how this team won the games … because the kids were all five-foot-eight, 140 pounds. Not one went on to play college baseball. What happened is, people said 'Was the pitching great? Did their bats get hot? Did their coach pull them together?' Not really. It wasn't any of that. What happened in every single one of the eight games, something very quirky happened to help them win," Mahaffey said.
He recalls one game when a player for Gibsonburg — who had never in his life hit a home run — hit two home runs against the toughest pitcher in the state from Fremont St. Joe. Gibsonburg won that game 6-5.
The story inspired Mahaffey to write a book about the events, and he titled it "Gibsonburg." It was the first time he had ever tried to write a book of its kind. Before the book was published last summer, Mahaffey decided he wanted to adapt his book to film. Like the book before it, he had never written a screenplay until now, and he used 50 unpaid college students from all around Ohio to film his movie.
"We entered it in film festivals and it was actually picked up by a film festival called Dances With Films out of L.A. They look at 1,500 films and pick 21 and we were one. It showed at Graumans Chinese Theater last summer and a distributor picked it up … and we're in more than 50 theaters in Ohio from June 7 through June 13," Mahaffey said.
Before the film opens, Mahaffey and a few of the stars from the film are touring Ohio theaters promoting its release. Their roaming Recreational Vehicle made stops in Columbus, Cincinnati, Chillicothe and more. On Friday they stopped at Portsmouth 8 Cinema to promote the film with free posters, t-shirts, snacks, and copies of Mahaffey's book. Mahaffey was also there to talk about the film while previewing the trailer, which is also available online at YouTube.com and the film's Facebook site at www.facebook.com/GibsonburgTheMovie.
"I had this vision. I wanted to go do the smaller towns; the smaller town theaters where no one competes," Mahaffey said. "Portsmouth is a baseball town. They love their baseball here. I think just the idea of Portsmouth as such as great baseball town, I hope it will do well."
Portsmouth 8 Cinema Manager Tom Euton said he was excited to have Mahaffey at the cinema on Friday and is looking forward to opening the film on June 7. He likened the story to the basketball film "Hoosiers."
"He knows we're a big baseball-oriented area," Euton said. "This is a big baseball town and '42' (a recent movie about Jackie Robinson and Scioto County native Branch Rickey) done really well here and maybe this will motivate some kids to get them in here to see a good movie."
The film opens in limited theaters, including Portsmouth 8 Cinema on June 7. It will be available on DVD and OnDemand this summer. More information about the movie can be found online at www.facebook.com/GibsonburgTheMovie, where followers can register to win the same 1968 Pontiac Firebird seen in the film.

RONDA - The Buckin' Elks head into the new year in unfamiliar territory - atop the Mountain Valley Conference.
Elkin cemented itself on top of the conference standings with a resounding 67-50 victory Friday night over rival East Wilkes in the Battle of the County Line.
"We started off slow and I think it was more being nervous with it being a rivalry between us. Once we got into our transition game - that's our strength - we opened it up a little bit," Elkin head coach Kenneth Abrams explained. "I'll be honest, we're playing good basketball right now. We have to keep them focused and continue to run. When we're not running, we struggle a little bit. Once our transition game kicked in, we pretty much took control."
In the frantic opening minutes of the game that had a playoff-like atmosphere, neither team was able to find their rhythm. McKinley Johnson finally connected at the 5:45 mark for the first points of the contest.
Elkin responded and used a 9-3 run in the final four minutes of the quarter to grab a 13-9 advantage and never looked back.
The Elks pushed the lead out to double-digits on a Kody King 'and-1' early in the frame and led by as much as 13 in the first half.
Sam Lane drained a three at the halftime buzzer as Elkin took a convincing 32-18 advantage in the locker room on the road in a hostile environment.
Coming out of the break, Frank Miller stole the inbounds pass and laid it back up just four seconds into the third as the Elks pushed their lead out to 20 just a minute into the half.
Elkin's full-court press caused the Cardinals fits throughout the game but keyed the game-clinching run in the third quarter.
"It all starts with the press," Abrams explained. "That's something we work on everyday, but we still don't have it down to perfection yet. I'm of course never going to be happy with it, but that's just a coaching thing. The press has gotten us to where we are now because we're so quick up front."
The Elks kept their second-half advantage in double-digits, cruising to their seventh-straight victory with a comfortable 67-50 triumph.
"Good team effort tonight. That's what we strive for because we played good team basketball. We could care less who scores as long as we all play together," Abrams added.
Lane powered Elkin with a game-high 22 points on the night, while Miller finished with 14. Jamiles Hayes added 10 points with King tacking on seven.
Avery Wallis led the Cardinals with 18 points in the game (13 in the second half), while Chandler Bare and Johnson added 13 and 11 points, respectively.
Elkin closes out its 2012 slate at 8-3 on the the season and 5-0 in conference play and sit atop the league standings. While the Elks will be taking a break during the Christmas holiday, Abrams said his team is enjoying the success but is remaining focused.
"It's been awhile [since Elkin has been in first play heading into the new year]," he explained. "It's a fun locker room right now. But we look at it one game at a time; we're not over-looking anyone. You won't believe but I have to chew their butt before every ballgame. Kids are going to be kids.
"Seven wins are great and that's momentum. That's momentum in the locker room, momentum on the bus and momentum at school. When you have kids fired up like that, your chances of winning are better. We're going to try and continue that," Abrams added.
With the loss Friday night, East Wilkes fell to 3-6 overall and 2-2 in the MVAC.
While the Elks will rest during the holidays, the Cardinals will be playing in the CFE Shootout at East Surry High School this week.
East opens tournament play Thursday against North Stokes at 4 p.m. before taking on host East Surry Friday night at 7 p.m.

Seriously though, that depends on the AO more than anything. The above mentioned would be good for maritime and urban setting, but stands out like all get out anywhere else.
Me, unless it has wood on it, all black, usually matte finish is the preference.

Can I get a replacement charge port gasket?
Last Updated: 12/4/2012 9:23 am
Of course! The charge port gasket (the black or yellow bit on the charge port door) is extremely important as it keeps water from getting to the dock connector of the iPhone. Over time, this gasket might become worn or damaged and need to be replaced. Thankfully, the gasket is removable and can be easily replaced.
If you need a new gasket, you can simply call LifeProof customer support, where we can organise a free replacement for you.

Election time can be confusing, even besides choosing between candidates. So, let's try to minimize confusion.
There are two elections of interest to East Cooper residents: the 1st Congressional District Special Election and the municipal election for Sullivan's Island Town Council.
The congressional race is between Republican Mark Sanford and Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch. Green party member Eugene Platt is also listed on a sample ballot by the Charleston County Board of Elections and Voter Registration (BEVR) office.
In Sullivan's Island, residents will vote for a mayor and three town council seats. Mike Perkis, current mayor pro tem, is the only registered candidate running for mayor, but at least a portion of island voters are planning to write in current mayor Carl Smith's name on the ballot.
Chauncey Clark, Bill Matthews, Susan Middaugh and Pat O'Neil are all running for three vacant council seats. O'Neil is the only incumbent.
A Sullivan's Island town ordinance allows political signs to be posted in yards up to two weeks before an election and mandates that all signs must be removed within one week of the election, according to the town's e-newsletter. That would make Tuesday, May 14 as the date for sign removal.
Polls at Sunrise Presbyterian Church, on 3222 Middle Street, will be open from 7 a.m. - 7 p.m. on Tuesday for registered voters.
Island residents wishing to vote in both elections – congressional and municipal – have to check in to two different lines. Poll workers from the area and representatives from Charleston County will be available for assistance. Prior to Tuesday, questions should be directed to the BEVR at 744-VOTE.
Both elections require photo identification prior to filling out a ballot. A South Carolina driver's license, ID card issued by S.C. Department of Motor Vehicles, S.C. voter registration card with photo, federal military ID and a U.S. passport are all suffice for photo identification. Voters only need to present one of these.

Pretty Little Liars
Pretty Little Liars: 10 Characters We Miss Seeing in Rosewood
Pretty Little Liars has a huge cast and a limited budget, so sometimes characters go MIA for episodes on end. But while a few episodes here and there are to be expected, some characters have been gone for so long, we forget if they're even still in Rosewood.
As we decompress from Season 3 and gear up for Season 4, here's a list of the characters we haven't seen for a while. Some of them we want back; others we're not exactly shedding a tear over. But either way, we kind of want to know where they are.
Paige McCullers (Lindsey Shaw): Unlike some of these other characters, Paige at least got name dropped recently. But that doesn't change the fact that she was notably absent near the end of Season 3, especially for a major love interest.
Lucas Gottesman (Brendan Robinson): Lucas ditched Rosewood High because he was scared of Mona (or, at least, that's what he said), but it would be nice to see him again — at least once in awhile!
Noel Kahn (Brant Daugherty): Everyone's favorite lurking, sneering, blackmailing jerk was nowhere to be found this winter. Miss you, Noel. Miss you so much.
Peter Hastings (Nolan North): We know Spencer's kinda-sorta-maybe evil dad was apparently in London for at least part of the winter season. Can he come back, please? We're pretty sure he knows more than he lets on.
Holden Strauss (Shane Coffey): Seriously, where did Holden go? At the very beginning of Season 3 we learned that he probably saw Emily "The Night" (who didn't?) but since then, nada.
Mike Montgomery (Cody Allen Christian): Hey, remember when Aria had a little brother we actually saw from time to time? Yeah, us too. Did Ella ship him off to boarding school and away from the danger in Rosewood? We'll never know.
Duncan Albert (Lachlan Buchanan): Duncan knew Ali in a way few did. You'd think the Liars would want to keep tabs on him.
Andrew Campbell (Brandon W. Jones): Are we going to see Spencer's hot Academic Decathlon buddy again? We hope so.
Hanna's dad and step-family. Did Kate leave Rosewood High after she and Hanna faced off in late Season 2? Is that why we've seen neither hide nor hair of this entire section of Hanna's family?
Sean Ackard (Chuck Hittinger): It's not like we really need to see Hanna's ex, but it's kinda weird that he never, ever comes up, since as far as we know he still goes to school with them.
There are a few other characters we haven't mentioned, but whose absence makes more sense, story wise, such as ex-love interests who don't go to Rosewood High, like Alex Santiago (Diego Boneta) and Samara Cook (Claire Holt).
Did we forget anyone you want to see again? Sound off in the comments below!
Find more Pretty Little Liars spoilers here.
Pretty Little Liars Season 4 premieres on Tuesday, June 11, 2013 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC Family.

Regarding: "If you want something that's less corners and more curves..." Please, please: that should be "that's fewer corners..." One of my pet peeves, sorry.
Anyway, also consider the new iPhone 5 ProClip car mounts. Their customized for your vehicle and, for mine, I can have the phone just a few inches away from my right hand when it's on the steering wheel. Perfect. I don't recommend the new clip that holds the phone from the top of the device--too tight and can potentially scratch. I switched to the traditional one that clamps from the sides.
I can also vouch for Navigon--it's a great app (bought it when I first got my 4S). However, I hardly ever use it. Why? Because tapping on an address in my contacts etc. brings me to the native iOS Maps and we can't make third-party apps the default. That said, iOS Maps is just fine--actually like it more than the old google maps.

Dana White today said he isn't worried that the UFC's debut on the new FOX Sports 1 cable channel could fall short of its expected broadcast reach.
Although the channel has yet to cut deals with several cable companies, the UFC president said, "This is what FOX does. They build networks, and they negotiate with these different systems. A lot of times, these things go right down to the wire.
"Am I worried about it? Not one bit."
It certainly is getting down to the wire when it comes to making sure the channel is available in as many households as it promised. When FOX Sports 1's launch was announced, officials estimated it would be available in 90 million households when it goes live on Saturday. The number is on par with other cable sports channels.
If, however, FOX is unable to strike deals with cable providers such as Time Warner Cable, DirecTV and Dish Network, it will be seen in drastically fewer homes. The media companies have yet to strike a carriage deal for how much the cable providers will pay the network for its programming.
Without a deal, viewership numbers for the network's flagship programming, including Saturday's UFC Fight Night 26 event at Boston's TD Garden, could take a big short-term hit.
White, though, is focusing on the success of the event, which gets primetime placement on the new channel.
During a media teleconference in support of the fight card, the promoter took the first few minutes of the call to address the situation.
"I'm not worried about it, (and) I'm not thinking about it," he said. "I have no control over this thing. It's not what I do. So, whatever happens, happens this week, and I really have nothing else to say about it."
According to a story in this past month's Sports Business Journal, one possible sticking point between the channel and the cable providers is over subscriber fees. FOX Sports 1 reportedly wants 80 cents per subscriber at the outset and could charge $1.50 by the end of the deal. Currently, several cable companies pay around 23 per subscriber for Speed, which is being rebranded as FOX Sports 1.

Partly Cloudy
Wind: 3 mph
To The Editor:
My thoughts on the new town hall: I am in favor of rebuilding the historical church. In a small town like Waitsfield, only the town has the need for this space and the financial ability to rebuild a historical church and turn it into an efficient town hall. We have plenty of vacant retail space and thus no private entity would be willing to buy the building and rebuild it (even if someone did rebuild it, the total cost of the project would drive the rental rates up so high that no potential tenant could afford the rent).
As residents of the town, in my humble opinion, we are stewards of its history and historical buildings and must do everything to honor and protect our heritage. Right now the town needs a new town hall and the building needs a new owner that could upgrade it and make very good use of the space.
For sure cost is important. Right now based on what I read there is a $800,000 differential. I am told this equates to a difference in all property taxpayers of approximately $6 a year or 50 cents a month. I realize these numbers are far from solid; the differential could go down if we could get a grant which I understand is very possible and has been done in other small towns in Vermont and other states.
The meeting December 11 at 7 p.m. at the Waitsfield School should be attended by all, as it is a stepping stone to being part of making a decision about a building that was built in 1894 and if we find a way could remain in good use until at least 100 years after the rebuilding is complete. If we cannot find a way to do this, I am afraid we will end up with a new town hall while this historical building just rots.

Intestinal ischemia occurs when the blood flow to your intestines is slowed or stopped. Due to the diminished blood flow, the cells in your digestive system are starved for oxygen, and can become weak and die, damaging your intestines.
Intestinal ischemia is often divided into categories:
Colon ischemia occurs when blood flow to the colon is slowed. It is the most common type of intestinal ischemia. Colon ischemia usually affects adults over age 60, but may occur at any age.
The precise cause of diminished blood flow to the colon isn't always clear. But several factors can increase your risk of colon ischemia:
Acute mesenteric ischemia affects the small intestine. It comes on abruptly and may be due to:
Chronic mesenteric ischemia, also called intestinal angina, results from the gradual buildup of fatty deposits along the wall of an artery (atherosclerosis). Chronic mesenteric ischemia can progress to acute mesenteric ischemia, especially if a blood clot develops within a diseased artery.
This type of intestinal ischemia occurs when a blood clot develops in the vein that carries blood away from the intestines. The blocked vein causes blood to back up into the intestines, leading to swelling and bleeding. Mesenteric venous thrombosis may result from:

About Düsseldorf
If anticipating Düsseldorf makes you turn cartwheels, you're not alone: this custom is credited to the children of Düsseldorf who turned 'flips' after learning their city had won the 13th century Battle of Worringen.
Düsseldorf's history dates back to the 7th century when it was a small fishing community on the river Düssel, a Rhine tributary. The first written mention of Düsseldorf was in 1135, by which stage the town had become a fortified outpost due to its strategic riverside position. The town was subsequently ruled by the Bergs, whose struggle for power with the Archbishop of Cologne lead to the cartwheel-inducing Battle of Worringen.
After the battle Düsseldorf thrived and by 1380 the town was appointed the regional capital. During the following centuries the city's fortunes fluctuated, flourishing throughout the 15-18th centuries before being plunged into poverty as a result of the early 19th century Napoleonic Wars.
In the mid-19th century Düsseldorf enjoyed a revival of fortunes courtesy of the Industrial Revolution, and to this day remains a wealthy city. Modern day Düsseldorf is known for its fashion, media, telecommunications and financial industries – evidence of which can be seen throughout the city's architecture.
Düsseldorf was heavily damaged during WW2, and as a result is full of modern architecture. Pockets of history remain and the combination of the two provides a wonderful backdrop to Düsseldorf's other attractions.
From the Hauptbahnhof, Düsseldorf's excellent tram system will take you to the Mediahafen 'media harbour'. Contemporary architecture doesn't get much better than this: the Neuer Zollhof comprises three twisted buildings clad in steel, brick and plaster by world-famous architect, Frank Gehry.
Nearby is the Rheinturm, a 240-metre-high telecoms tower with an observation deck at 170 metres. It offers a panoramic view while a light display on the side doubles as the world's biggest digital clock.
A stroll north along the Promenade is the Burgplatz, a beautiful square where the Düssel meets the Rhine. Its lonely castle tower marks the start of the Altstadt, the 'old town' which was faithfully reconstructed after wartime damage and is home to the 14th century St. Lambertuskirche and the 16th century Town Hall.
Once you've exhausted the city's architecture, pay a visit to the tree-lined avenue of Königsallee, Düsseldorf's upmarket fashion shopping destination. It comes with a considerable price tag but window shopping along the canal-side 'Kö' can be every bit as enjoyable as a shopping trip in earnest.
Dining and Nightlife
With more than 300 pubs and brewpubs, the Altstadt is known as the 'longest bar in the world'. It's as popular with D'dorfers as it is with tourists and is a great place to grab a beer or a bite to eat. Most bars serve food which ranges from specialities such as Rheinischer Sauerbraten (pickled roast beef with stewed raisins) to lighter snacks including meatballs and Halve Hahn. Gourmands beware – Halve Hahn is not a half chicken, rather a rye bread roll topped with cheese, mustard and gherkin.
A visit to Düsseldorf must involve a trip to a brewpub, even just to marvel at the crowded benches on the cobbled streets outside. The Altstadt is the birthplace of Altbier: dark brown ale brewed on the premises. Served in small glasses, waiters replenish empties even before another 'Alt' is ordered, and a tally is pencilled on your beer mat.
Düsseldorf also has a healthy number of non-German restaurants thanks to its Turkish, Greek, Italian and Japanese population; you'll find international options dotted from the bars on Bolkerstrasse to the restaurants on Ratingerstrasse – and everywhere in between.
Beyond Düsseldorf
Just 33 kilometres south of Düsseldorf is Köln (Cologne), Germany's fourth largest city. If you decide to head to Köln for a getaway, be careful who you tell: there is a strong rivalry between the two cities, usually demonstrated via humorous retorts and snide jokes. But don't let this deter you as even the most ardent Köln-basher will admit the city has plenty to offer. The train into Köln takes you past the city's magnificent Kölner Dom, a gothic cathedral described by Unesco as an "exceptional work of human creative genius". Scale the spiky South Tower's 509 spiral steps for a commanding view of the city.
