How much did your iPhone cost? If you said $199, $299 or even $399 you're somewhere near $350 off. As some consciously forget, the carriers often shield the owner from the real total cost of the iPhone. That may not last.
iPhone sales could be hurt as carriers switch from so-called subsidized contracts, where customers pay only a fraction of the cost a new iPhone up-front, to deals where the true cost of the phone is more visible, argues a piece in the WSJ.
Many U.S. iPhone customers are not aware that the full cost of an iPhone ranges from $549 for a 16GB 5c to $849 for a 64GB 5s. The reason is that carriers have traditionally asked for only $0 to $200 up-front, hiding the balance of the cost in the monthly tariff. With carriers now switching to separate instalment costs for the phone, and the cost of upgrading every year or two more visible to consumers, analysts believe some will choose to upgrade less often …
AT&T Inc, which reports first-quarter results Tuesday, sold 15% of its smartphones without a subsidy in the fourth quarter. UBS analyst John Hodulik estimates that figure will rise to 35% this year […]
Brian Marshall, an analyst at ISI Group, estimates U.S. sales of the iPhone fell 20% in the last quarter of the year following a flat showing the quarter before, as sales growth continues to slow.
The consensus estimate of Q2 iPhone sales was of year-on-year growth of just two percent.
Falling sales due to a switch away from subsidies is a phenomenon that has already been seen in the UK, where it's common to pay the full cost of the phone up-front in return for much cheaper tariffs. The result has been more people holding onto their existing handsets for three years rather than two.
Not everyone thinks a move away from the subsidized model makes sense. Verizon's CFO Fran Shammo said that the model "has done wonders for us in this industry, so I think to abandon that I think is a mistake." But with both AT&T and T-Mobile pushing hard for contracts which separate the cost of the phone from usage charges, it's likely that the shift will be a permanent one.
The big unknown in all this, of course, is what Apple will offer in the iPhone 6. Make that sufficiently compelling, and consumers will want it, up-front subsidy or not. A recent survey showed that 40 percent of North American consumers planned to buy the new handset, a higher figure than for both the iPhone 5 and 5s when also measured before any official announcement by Apple.

Of course the carriers don't want to switch away from the subsidised model, it makes them huge amounts of money because they get the subsidy back (with interest!) and the customer is locked in.
Of course "sales are down" when the subsidised model is partially eliminated, because people aren't being tricked into paying more money for the same phone or trapped in cyclical contracts.
No subsidies is the first step to cheaper phones, and the carriers are only grudgingly offering the option due to increasingly vocal demand for it from their customers.
In the Nordic countries they removed subsidises 5-6 year ago. Instead we got much cheaper traffic tariffs. In 2007 10 gig data cost under 10 dollars.
To lock customers in contract they instead "lend" money for the phone. You get a "free" iPhone but have to pay a 30 dollar/month fee for the phone/24 months.
As usual customers are always shafted at the end. Last year the carriers started to increase the prices on data trafik by insane amount of money. This even when Data trafik is cheaper for the carriers today than before LTE and fibre network linking the base stations.
My current contract give me unlimited data for 50 dollars/month. Have used over 2 terabyte data since Nov 2013. The new contracts have removed unlimited data and instead gives 10gig for 50 dollars.
This leads to: Why have LTE/LTE-A when you have 10gig limit? You can burn thru that data in minutes. This is the problem with carriers that have a oligopol and can charge whatever they want. The carriers are dumb data pipes. This is an utility. One of the few things that government should regulate because this is infrastructure that are needed. Not carriers that today can print money since no one else can get radio spectrums.
To bad that Steve Jobs crazy idea building his own network did not happen. Using unlicensed radio spectrum introducing their own standard.
The price for the iPhone is the reason why Android is killing iPhone outside USA. My unlocked iPhone5S 32gig cost over 1200 including taxes. A working Android cost 300 dollar.
T-Mobile is already letting customers know what the full price of the device is, and while they may charge a little more than just buying the device outright, it gives them the opportunity to make payments on a monthly basis and separates the cost from their service bill in order to give the customer true 'transparency' as opposed to the other carriers who hide the costs in their two year contracts.
$207 cost for the 32 GB iPhone 5S to build (according to teardown and component pricing), yet off contract, it's what, 799$? Yeah, can you say markup? Subsidies suck, but so do device manufacturers marking the hell up out of their stuff.

I recently overfilled a 4 stroke lawnmower engine with oil. It has been run for about 1.5 hours while overfilled. It smokes a lot right after being started but after 30 seconds or so the smoke clears. Now that I have figured out what I did I plan to drain the oil down to the "high" mark and keep running it. What sort of damage might I have done?
Over filling an engine with oil can cause it too "foam" the oil, which reduces it's lubrication properties. If you lower the level to proper amounts you may have added some wear, but it's unlikely that you caused serious damage.
A few things can happen:
Eric Fossum's remark about turning the oil to foam is a very important one. It leads to reduced lubrication inside the engine which can lead to terminal engine failure.
If the oil level is too high it can actually bend the crankshaft. If the crankshaft is striking the oil when the engine is running it can ruin the engine. It doesn't sound like you have done any permanent damage with what you have described.
Long story to include a fairly short answer, but it's pretty amusing, so I'll give the whole story. :-)
My Dad once WAAAAY overfilled our cheap-o mower (Briggs & Stratton engine on it) due to filling the entire oil compartment when all you're supposed to do is wet the sponge in it. This occurred after we realized it had no oil in it, which we finally figured out after a Summer of having it quit working and be seized up every 20 minutes (from overheating apparently, you couldn't budge the cord until it cooled off, then it would run fine again).
The effect of the overfill was to blow oil, both in liquid and smoke form, through the muffler like crazy for several minutes. Pretty much fogged in our whole street before it cleared up.
As a final note, we (several years later) retired that mower by parking it out back and just leaving it there. The new fancy mower tossed a rod a month after the 3 year warranty was up, so we grabbed the ol' beat up mower from where it had been abandoned. Started on the 3rd pull (with the same gas, oil, and plug that were in it when we left it to sit in the elements)... Apparently Briggs & Stratton make a seriously tough engine...
I overfilled my brand new Craftsman Lawn Mower. Would NOT turn over at all. Drained the oil down to the proper level and cleaned up the spark plug. It fired up and there was a bit of white smoke but that soon dissipated. Has worked fine since!

It's a lovely poncho
By Polly
from Tulsa, Ok
Comments about Women's Mabli One-Button Alpaca Wool Poncho:
This is a lovely poncho, it looks exactly like the picture. I got it in the mail today. It is indeed lightweight and warm as advertised. It will be great for fall. I am only 5'2" and the cape hits me almost exactly as is shown in the photo. The alpaca wool is not scratchy at all. It feels really nice. This is a high quality product.

About the Aggies: The Aggies earned a bid to the 2012
NCAA Tournament by winning the WAC Tournament title in San Antonio last
week. NM State heads to Provo, Utah with
a 22-10 record on the season, while finishing the WAC regular season with a
12-6 record (fourth place).
The Aggies are currently hitting .228 as a team while
holding opponents to a .174 hitting percentage. Four Aggies played in all 121
sets this season including Meredith Hays, Lauren Loerch, Desiree Scott and
Stephanie Ziegler. Four different Aggies
marked at least 200 kills including Hays, who heads into the tournament with
NM State runs a 6-2 offense, rotating setters throughout the
match, with junior Ciara Brown leading the way with 6.05 assists per set in 109
sets played. Freshman Taylor Livoti has seen action in 96 sets this year and is
posting 4.93 assists per set. Sophomore Maggi Jo Keffury has gotten in the
lineup in 53 sets this year and averages 4.13 assists per set.
Juniors Stephanie Ziegler and Hannah Walker have been taking
on the defensive specialist duties this year with Ziegler leading the team
posting 3.06 digs per set. Walker is second on the team with 2.89 digs per set.
Scott leads the team defensively at the net with 148 total blocks on the year,
averaging 1.22 per set. Sophomore Gwen Murphy is closest to Scott with 81 total
blocks on the season. The Aggies as a team tally 2.50 blocks per set.
The Aggies are 6-1 when playing on a neutral court this
season and 8-5 when playing on an opposing team's court. NM State hits .195 when playing in an
opposing team's arena and hits .282 on a neutral court. The Aggies post 12.23 kills per set when
playing as the away team compared to averaging 15.08 kills per set in a neutral
NM State started the season winning the first five matches
of the year before winning only one of the next four matches. The Aggies went into WAC play with a 6-3
record and were victorious in the first conference matches of the year. In a non-conference match, the Aggies fell to
I-10 Rival UTEP for the first time in 15 matches on Sept. 29 but defeated their
in-state rival, New Mexico by picking up the sweep in Albuquerque on Oct. 23.
NM State lost the last two matches of the regular season
before catching fire in the WAC Tournament falling in only one set during the
tournament. The Aggies were 2-3 in the
month of November, which is very different than the 4-0 record it had in
Aggies in the NCAA Tournament: This will be the sixth
appearance for NM State in the NCAA tournament.
The Aggies are 1-5 all-time in NCAA tournament matches. Beginning in 2003, NM State qualified for the
NCAA tournament in five of the following six seasons (2003-04, 2006-08). Three of the Aggies' births into the NCAA
tournament have been at-large bids while the 2012 birth was the third automatic
bid for winning the conference tournament.
Mike Jordan has been the head coach for all six Aggie tournament-appearance
teams and the previous five Aggie teams in the NCAA tournament have all been
led by an All-American (honorable mention) player.
The Aggies made their first ever appearance to the NCAA
Tournament in 2003. All-American
(honorable mention) middle hitter Trinia Cuseo led a team that finished the
season with a 30-5 record and went undefeated in Sun Belt Conference play,
including winning the Sun Belt Conference tournament and earning an automatic
bid to the NCAA tournament. NM State was
placed in the Honolulu, Hawai'i, region where they lost in straight sets to BYU
during the first round of play. The
match also marks the last time NM State and BYU have met on the volleyball
court before this week's match.
NM State made its mark in the 2004 NCAA tournament for the
second consecutive season. The Aggies
finished the season at 30-3 and were once again led by an All-American honoree,
outside hitter Stevi Adams. For the
second straight season NM State would finish undefeated in Sun Belt Conference
play and win the conference tournament to receive the automatic bid into the
NCAA tournament. The Aggies traveled to
San Diego, Calif., where they lost to the ninth-ranked team in the country, San
Diego, in straight sets.
Led by All-American (honorable mention) Kim Oguh, NM State
finished the 2006 season with a 33-4 record. The 33 wins still stands today as
the school record for wins in a season.
After finishing the season with a No. 23 national ranking, the Aggies
earned their first at-large bid into the NCAA tournament. As in 2004, NM State would have to play the
host team of the regional during the opening round and lost to Colorado in
straight sets in Boulder, Colo.
After receiving a No. 13 national ranking in the AVCA Top 25
poll during the 2007 season, the highest ranking ever for any Aggie athletic
team, NM State received its second consecutive at-large bid into the NCAA
tournament. The Aggies finished the
season with a 26-6 record, with all six losses coming to nationally-ranked
teams. Oguh led the team once again as she received her third-consecutive
All-American (honorable mention) honor.
The Aggies were placed in the Austin, Texas, region of the NCAA
tournament were they faced LSU in the first round. NM State would go on to win their first-ever
sets in NCAA tournament play but would eventually lose to the Tigers in five
The 2008 season saw NM State earn its third-consecutive
at-large bid into the NCAA tournament.
Led by All-American (honorable mention) Krystal Torres, NM State's
all-time career-digs leader, the Aggies finished with a 26-9 record and a share
of the Western Athletic Conference regular season title. The season was highlighted by a win at
Hawai'i, which at the time was the sixth-ranked team in the country. NM State traveled to Berkeley, Calif., for
the NCAA regional play. Feeding off
their close five-set loss to LSU during the previous year's NCAA tournament,
the Aggies would go on to defeat St. Mary's College in four sets during the
first round. It would be NM State's
first-ever NCAA tournament victory. The
Aggies would proceed to lose in the following round to host California, the
eighth-ranked team in the nation, in four sets.

career. Former Aggie Alice Borden is No.
10 on the all-time list with 1,183 kills in her career (2003-06). Hays is averaging 4.19 kills per set on her
career which is atop the all-time kills per set list at NM State.
Hays is currently No. 6 on the kills-in-a-season list with
480 this year. She is also No. 2 on that
list as she posted 500 kills last year. Former Aggie Kayleigh Giddens holds the
record for kills in a season with 542 in 2010, while Hays could possible
surpass former Aggie Angela Lobendahn-Perterson (Utah native) who tallied 494
kills during the 2000 season.
Junior Desiree Scott has 300 career-total blocks heading into
this week's play. She needs 19 more
total blocks to enter the top 10 at NM State.
Former Aggies Kelsey Brennan (2008-11) and Whitney Woods (2007-10) are
tied for 10th in career-total blocks with 319.
Scott, who has 148 total blocks this year, is now sitting in
the No. 9 spot for total blocks in a season.
She surpassed Karen Yelich who posted 147 blocks in 1982 and Kristin
Webster who marked 145 total blocks in 2001.
Scott moved into the No. 7 spot for block assists in a
season with 121. She needs eight more
block assist to tie for fifth on the list with former Aggie All-American (HM)
Kim Oguh, who put up 129 block assists in 2007.
If Scott's .377 hitting percentage holds up this year, she
will be tied for the No. 3 spot on the season-hitting percentage list, just
behind former Aggie middle hitters Amber Simpson and Kristen Webster. Simpson hit .387 in 2006 and Webster hit .385
in 2001.

Jordan is the only NM State volleyball head coach to lead
his team to the NCAA Tournament, which he has done five times (2003, 2004,
2006, 2007, 2008). He is also the only
Aggie head coach to ever lead his team to a conference title as he led his team
to titles in both the Sun Belt Conference and the WAC. NM State is the first team to either share or
hold the WAC regular-season title since BYU and Hawai'i shared the Pacific
Division title in 1998.

Emily and Aiden stage a break up, the Initiative approach Daniel, and Victoria allies herself with Emily.
Emily and Aiden spar on the beach at night. He asks if she wants to go again. She kisses him instead.
Helen Crawley from the Initiative gets Daniel into her town car. She tells him to dig around Grayson to find secrets that will make him more powerful than his father ever dreamed.
Jack and Amanda kiss at the Stowaway. He gifts her with a sea glass necklace. Declan listens as she expresses her wariness to Jack about the Ryan brothers.
At home, Victoria is worried the Initiative is going to use Daniel. Conrad isn't concerned because Daniel is so inept. An upcoming Supreme Court pick, Barnes, is spending the weekend. She wants Conrad to support their charity so he can be welcomed back at Grayson Global when Daniel falls. She is going to use Emily to make sure that happens.
Aiden reads a letter at the beach house that Emily thinks was written by a courtroom clerk, Palmer, who passed the name of a juror who did not believe David was guilty on to Judge Barnes, who then told the Graysons. That juror was removed and replaced. Three days after the letter was sent, Palmer was killed.
At the Grayson's, Victoria tells Emily she thinks Daniel is in over his head at Grayson Global. Daniel still loves her. If Emily can get Daniel to drop his interest in Grasyon she will have Victoria's full support. They shake hands. Later, she introduces Emily to Robert and Patricia Barnes.
At the Stowaway Charlotte distracts Nate and Kenny while Declan looks around in the back. He finds drugs but spills coffee beans everywhere and scrambles to clean up. When Nate opens the door Declan has cleaned up – or so he thought. Nate steps on one lone coffee bean after Declan leaves. Declan later tells Jack that the Ryan brothers are running drugs through the bar. Jack has a plan.
At Grayson Global Aiden finds out where Daniel is meeting Conrad for lunch and arranges to meet Emily there. They stage a break up. Later, Daniel wants Nolan to hack into Grayson's system to find rogue files.
At home, Jack packs up a bag for Amanda and Carl to stay at Emily's place. She was right about the Ryan brothers. They are running drugs through the bar and he needs her to leave so he can have the place raided.
Nolan meets Emily at her place and realizes her breakup was fake when Aiden comes out. She is willing to play nice with Daniel to expose Judge Barnes. She leaves and Aiden asks Nolan to help him stay one step ahead of the initiative, specifically Helen Crawley.
At work, Nolan looks through Grayson's system. Marco doesn't believe Daniel asked him to hack into his company's own files. Marco wants to get some drinks but Nolan dismisses him.
Daniel greets Emily at the mansion and lets her know he and Ashley are also over. At dinner, Emily brings up Palmer to the Barnes' and they are visibly affected. He assures her that David Clarke's trial has not caused him any lack of sleep. His wife injects that is her job and he grabs her hand. She is shaking and excuses herself from dinner. Judge Barnes quickly joins her.
At home, Amanda and Emily go over info about Patricia Barnes. She has a history of broken bones and a criminal record that was expunged. Emily finds a picture of her at an apartheid protest with Palmer.
Aiden meets with Nolan at his place and shows him video from the investors lunch. He calls the phone number and Helen answers. She has been expecting him. They meet underground and she tells him his sister is still alive. She will have an offer for him the next time they meet, and he better not tell anyone about it.
The cops shut down the Stowaway to search but find nothing. They go to the boat and arrest Declan when they find drugs and a gun there. Jack insists it is all his and is arrested instead. Later the Ryan brothers warn Declan things could get a lot worse. Jack calls Amanda from jail and tells her what happened.
Marco sets up a romantic dinner for Nolan at his office. He wants a chance to start over and will wait as long as it takes. He wants Nolan to reconsider a cyber security project he abandoned years ago.
Emily approaches Patricia in the ladies room at the fundraiser. She notices Patricia is bruised and hands over the letter she thought was written by Palmer. The letter saved Amanda's life and tonight it could save her own. During her speech Patricia brings out the letter, which she wrote. She reads that the verdict that convicted David came from a tainted jury. Her husband stands to inherit more power but the greater the power the greater the potential for abuse. She removes her jacket to show off her bruises.
Helen calls Daniel and asks how his hunt is going. Nolan left a breadcrumb trail to NolCorp secrets, one he should find very interesting.
Daniel shows up at Emily's while Aiden showers. He needs her help steering Grayson's charity resources. She notices Victoria is watching and agrees. He kisses her and Victoria smiles. Aiden watches from inside.

Science Matters
Advancing Science at EPA
A message from Paul T. Anastas, Ph.D.
Assistant Administrator, EPA Office of Research and Development
Building a sustainable world—one that meets the needs of today's generation while preserving the ability of future generations to meet theirs—is the single most important challenge of our time.
Albert Einstein once said that "problems can't be solved at the same level of awareness that created them." Indeed , in order to address and overcome the challenges we face, we must obtain greater awareness, more knowledge, and new information. For our pursuit of a sustainable world, this means constantly questioning our approaches and always seeking out innovative solutions for improvement.
While continuing to advance the kinds of cutting edge research efforts that are the hallmark of EPA, we also are taking ambitious steps to ensure that we are as effective as we can be for the American people. These steps, known collectively as the "Path Forward," ensure that all of EPA's scientific work is conducted in a way that advances the goal of sustainability. In its common definition, sustainability means meeting the needs of the current generation while preserving the ability of future generations to meet their needs. At EPA, it means doing all that we can to not only protect Americans today, but also to ensure a healthy environment for our children, their children, and beyond. Achieving this ambitious goal will require the best minds to work together across disciplines in an atmosphere of innovation and creativity. It will also require broad thinking and a holistic, "systems" perspective to ensure that our science and research today can advance EPA's mission into the future.
We are doing just that. By bringing together experts from nearly every environmental discipline, we are building upon our demonstrated excellence in measuring, monitoring, and assessing environmental problems to inform and empower sustainable solutions. We are breaking down traditional scientific silos by forging truly transdiciplinary research areas. We are establishing programs to encourage transformative innovations that simultaneously reduce environmental risk and grow the economy. We are developing new ways to communicate and maximize our impact, and we are engaging with experts, stakeholders, and communities like never before. We have embraced the goal of sustainability and, as a result, are more effectively conducting research for human health and environmental protection across the United States.
We have spent the past year and a half working to align all of our work with the concept of sustainability. These efforts have spanned across the entire spectrum of our work, from the structure of our research programs, to the nature of our interactions with programs and regions, to new internal awards, projects, trainings, and communication strategies. On October 1, we will produce a research strategic plan that will be the culmination of these efforts. Our scientists and engineers have worked with partners inside and outside the agency to make this plan responsive to pressing environmental challenges. Accomplishing the science and technology tasks included in this plan will play an important role in safeguarding human health and the environment.
This is an exciting time for EPA. Our focus on Sustainability will ensure that we not only continue our important work protecting the American people and their environment, but that we do it in a way that preserves the health of our economy and future generations.

Google Chrome vs Safari: iOS Browser shootout!
Google Chrome for iOS was released today -- and also reviewed -- but we still had to put it up against Apple's default browser, Safari, in a good, old fashioned Mobile Nations browser shootout!
Now we all know the deal here -- it's not a fair fight. Chrome on iOS is restricted to using Apple's embedded HTML renderer (UIWebView), and doesn't get access to Apple's speedier, just-in-time JavaScript engine (Nitro). And there's nothing to be done about that unless and until Apple changes their policies.
Still, if you love Chrome and really want to use it on iOS, it's worthwhile knowing what exactly you'll be gaining and what you'll be giving up by going all in.
So we conducted some basic tests, such as load times (which revealed a slight lead for Chrome in two tests -- go UIWebView!), JavaScript (where Safari had a significant lead, of course), HTML5, and CSS (roughly equivalent).
One test that didn't make the video was BrowserMark, in which Google Chrome scored 49248 and Safari scored way higher with 101631.
Overall, I didn't find there was much discernable performance difference. The slightly speedier load time in Chrome caught me by surprise at first, but in the long haul, the difference is negligible since Safari and Chrome run essentially the same rendering engine.
The real clincher for most folks will be Chrome's features, such as cloud syncing with desktop Chrome and Incognito mode. iOS 6 promises more than a few updates to the Safari browser, including iCloud Tabs, at which point Chrome will have a hard fight ahead of itself.
It will likely come down to whether you use Safari on the desktop and iCloud for sync, or prefer Chrome on the desktop and live in Google services. At least now, if you're the latter, Chrome for iOS will make you complete.
How has your experience been with Chrome? Had it replaced Safari on your dock?

Google Chrome vs Safari: iOS Browser shootout!
Would be nice if Apple made iCloud Tabs an open API so developers could make Chrome and Firefox extensions to plug into it. Even if it comes to Safari on Windows I doubt I would switch to desktop Safari.
In the meantime, I primarily use Firefox but have been slowly converting to Chrome; maybe cloud sync will be the impetus I need to go over completely. I know there's Firefox Home, but that's not the same as a full-featured browser.
Yep, replaced Safari instantly.
I noticed a difference in HTML5 video playback earlier. Chrome wouldn't play it but Safari did.
True that. I have all three on my desktop, why wouldn't I have three (Safari, Chrome and Dolphin) on my phone?
There is a little more to it than that... i use Safari, Dolphin and now Chrome on my iOS devices. Safari is that standard size phillips head screwdriver. If you have a phillips head screw and you can see it, then you are gonna use that driver. Dolphin and Chrome offer the multi-tool approach because sometimes you have a tiny screw or one that is blocked by a board and that standard screwdriver just can't do it. They do a lot of things, like allow you to view a desktop version of the page when safari will only let you view the mobile, or voice search, or gestures based controls or sync with the desktop, or allow you to download to files directly your dropbox account. The multi-tool will never replace the fixed handle old standby screw driver, but sometimes it's nice to have a tool that will allow you to do things that just aren't possible with that standard screwdriver.
Its about time to (someone force) Apple to stop with that stupid rule of not letting us choose our default app for mail and web. That is the thing that stops me from adopting other software with features that I like, and is really my biggest frustration with that real great products that apple has. I still love them, because of all other things, but that really frustrates me.
I remember that a long time ago Microsoft was ruled to stop shipping IE as default browser on its OS. Now not only Safari comes pre installed (I really dont see any problem with that, lets make it clear) but also you really can not choose other browsers as your default, so any link you open always opens on safari no matter how much you want to use other option.
PS: I know I can jailbreak for that.
Yeah, the difference being Microsoft was painfully obvious about perverting any and all (previously 'open') web standards such that they only work in I.E. hobbled Windoze. Web sites were being CODED for I.E., only fully available in Windows. Embrace and extend is a funny euphemism, isn't it?
In the end, this was all just fine and dandy when it came to the monopoly trial. The problem was that MS forced Netscape (the real innovator in the space) out of business. And there were many companies before them (stacker comes to mind, even Apple nearly, and no MS didn't 'save' Apple, MS were forced by Apple to settle the canyon case where they blithely copied Apple's code and pasted it into Windoze Media).
You can't set this in iOS? How much of an inconvenience is that? Is it as bad as all other people wanting to browse the web can't do it because of your using embrace and extend garbage, perverting all supposedly 'open' standards to only work in Windows (while the Windoze fanboys decry Apple as the one somehow not being 'open'.)
Are you talking about computers or iOS? Apple computers can have their default apps changed easily.
The browser you should be benchmarking Chrome, or indeed any iOS browser, against is iCab Mobile. Chrome's (or Safari's) functionality isn't anywhere near iCab's.
BTW, I never found Chrome all that great on my desktop computer(s) either. I recently went back to Firefox because of better add-ons and didn't notice any difference in speed.
I'll use Chrome when Google the day gives me a cut of the money they earn from selling my data.
I'm still waiting for Firefox. (Junior) :P
...and, taking your thoughts to their logical conclusion, WebKit would not exist if Apple had not "ripped off" KHTML.
In any case, so what? The WebKit license specifically encourages Google to take it and use it, just as KHTML's license specifically encouraged Apple to take it as the basis for WebKit. That is the nature of non-GPL licenses. What matters is what you do after you work with the project.
And, for the record, for a couple of years now Google has contributed more to WebKit than Apple has, and Google is better behaved citizen of the project, crediting Apple-sourced contributions to Chromium/Chrome, whereas Apple specifically does not credit Google-sourced contributions to Safari.
Apple deserves a lot of credit for their work on WebKit, but to claim Google is just ripping off Apple's work is ludicrous.
Are you sure, you are NOT USING ANY GOOGLE PRODUCTS?
So, You are NOT USING youtube, gmail, maps, chrome browser, google search, docs, and thousands more that you don't know GOOGLE AOWNS IT???
Please, be HONEST... If ALL GOOGLE PRODUCTS are not accessible to you, STOP using any computers, tablets and phones yoi have...
I use all of them. Safari I would say is by far the worst. Its not as customizable as say firefox and it doesn't have all of the cool apps like chrome and firefox do.
Also its installed on macs but I never see it on a windows pc. So synching is only really useful if you go somewhere and have to use another machine like a terminal.
That right there is what makes chrome so much better. IMO all of the standard apps built into Lion are junk except for safari. Its ok, I fire it up every few months to see if there is anything new.
I use firefox for all the cool test tools like the selenium ide and xss me tools
I use chrome for all googles built in apps and for gmail and google plus
I use safari well.... I use it to test my corporate site to just say we support safari.
Also IE10 is ok, better than nothing. lol
Run this test on 3G for accurate results. Chrome preloads webpages on Wifi...

South Bend Christmas Crunch 7 7
. lVery tasty and enjowed by all. My only problem was that I ordered only 2 bags. Six of us finished them in one day. Not that there wasn't plenty in the bags, but it was so yummy that we munched all voraciously. Wonderful product! December 18, 2014
Delicious!! We sent this to a friend for Christmas and he said it was so good, it was hard not to eat the entire bag in one day. It is very 'fresh' and has a lot of everything in it, not just caramel corn. January 8, 2014
Absolutely Awesom This is a wonderful product - extremely tasty. I purchased 26 last year and gave them out along with other gifts. They were the biggest hit of all of my gifts to friends and family. December 3, 2011
LOVE THIS STUFF!!! I love these crunches, and I look forward to each new season with each new flavor. My nearest World Market is about an hour away, and I will make the drive JUST FOR THIS. Delicious!!! November 10, 2011
Buy this. You'll be happy! We served this at a gathering of friends and we were heros. It is fresh,tasty,and just wonderful. Bought two bags and going back for more. December 3, 2010
Very disappointed with this carmel corn. I gave this away as Christmas gifts - mailman, gardener, etc. I kept one for the family. When we opened it, it was soft and not crunchy. Now I feel so embarrassed giving it away as gifts. I should have tried it before giving it as a gift. I don't feel it was cheap and I expected it to be crunchy and delicious, but it wasn't. I would not recommend this product. January 4, 2014
Stale popcorn I bought 4 bags as presents based on good reviews. Opened a bag cause it looked so good, the popcorn was like rubber! So, disappointed, but glad I did not give them to anyone, threw it all away, what a waste of money! December 24, 2013

Yellow Chevron Chair Cushion 3 3
Sunny & comfortable chair cushion I purchased these cushions for my kitchen bar stools. They are such a happy and vibrant color - really brightens up the room! Unlike the previous reviewer, I haven't had any problems. I've had the cushions for several months now, and they seems to be of very good quality. Very comfortable. I highly recommend this product! February 8, 2015
Color not as pictured. I received these cushions and they are more of a gold color rather than yellow. The padding is thin. I will be returning. April 24, 2015
Nice cushions but poorly manufactured. These are really nice looking (love the chevron pattern) and comfortable cushions but we sat on them for the first time and several tufts popped out on each of the cushions literally within minutes. I'm going to keep them and try to repair the tufts as they continue to fall apart but I shouldn't have to do that and probably will never buy tufted cushions from World Market again. April 15, 2013

Different camera angles - wow! Technology plus!Great show. By the way, downunder we say Jag-you-are or just Jag.
"Self charging" - This term, or similar is used in the Prius literature I was given when taking one for a test drive, and during the test drive, when I asked "Can I plug it in to charge it?" the very confident sales lady answered "You don't have to, because the petrol(gas for you guys) motor charges the batteries for you."
Keep up the good work.

Ryan, So I am listening to the podcast. You get the point where you have to say "Coulomb" and bang, you hit the nail right on the head. Am before I can think, "great job with the pronunciation Ryan," Miss Electric jumps in to confuse you. Good for you and Bo sticking up for yourselves.
I was listening to a YouTube videoon chargers and the interviewer kept saying "column" chargers.
Perhaps we should just say "The company that makes ChargerPoint stations".
LaterJohn C. Briggs
P.S. No sooner does Miss Electric try to convince you of the wrong pronunciation of Coulomb than she starts with the Jag-wire thing. Excellent.
P.S.S. I love Miss Electric but I can't stop myself from picking on her for this issue.
Ford-built Jaguars were some of the best looking cars on the roads, and their performance was way underrated.. I've had at least one mid-60's or later in my stable since the 70's. The early Jaguars each cost me more in maintenance than what I paid for them.
That is, except for the last one - a Ford-built 96 Jaguar XJ6. Ford kept the styling and the bulletproof motor, but dumped the Lucas (prince of darkness) electrical parts. We put 187K miles on the 96 Jag with only regular maintenance. Later models with the Mustang 5.0L motor were even better performers and even more reliable.
Ford sold Jaguar and Range Rover in 2008 to Tata Motors, which helped Ford avoid the government handout route taken by General Motors and Chrysler. In comparison, would GM be better off today if they had sold Oldsmobile, Pontiac, and Saturn brands instead of closing them?
Random thoughts on batteries
14KWH SMART gen II (Tesla)16KWH Mitsubishi iMiEV16KWH Chevy Volt24KWH Nissan LEAF34KWH CODA automotive53KW Tesla Roadster
Did I miss any? One thing that interests me is that the Chevy Volt battery is similar in size to the batteries of the BEVs. There is something wrong with that in my mind. An E-REV and BEV should not be close to the same size. Either the BEV batteries are too small or the E-REV battery is too big. With the range complaints I have heard on the iMiEV, perhaps Chevy has the winning combination.
OK, I am late to the party on the whole Nissan LEAF MPG thing, but I just found a post that makes it clearer and explains why it is so wrong.
Leaf MPG in five easy steps by EPA Rules1) 4.2 Miles/KWH electric fuel efficiency2) 142 MPH convert electrical energy to gasoline energy with no losses3) 45 MPG if electric is made from fossil fuel, 33% efficiency at production, 96% in transmission4) 54 MPG Well, gasoline production isn't 100% efficient so divide by 83%5) 358 MPG, multiply by 6.67 because the EPA thinks EVs are cool !!!!
You know, if the EPA wants to play these games for CAFE purposes, that is fine, but the car companies should not be setting false expectations by publishing a number 6.67X the real number.
Good show guys and gal- enjoyed the multi-camera-angle podcast;-)
Tesla did say they were going to replace the Roadster, in 2013:http://www.autoblog.com/2010/01/29/wait-what-tesla-to-kill-the-roadster-in-2011/
Sorry about the Fisker, Bo- I do hope they can deliver, literally and figuratively, by the end of the year- but I think Fisker, and others, are finding out just how hard it is to produce not only a new car, but one with a new propulsion technology.
Ok- any story that has ZAP and UFO in the tag should tell you all you need to know! Don't hold your breath on this one;-)
And lastly, ouch! Rough feedback on your Aptera spoof! I guess the offended gentleman just doesn't realize that Bo and Ryan are an aquired taste:-)
Nissan says it will NOT lease the battery on the LEAF.
A victory for common sense.
Thanks for the good news on the Leaf Batteries, John! I only have one thing to say to that:
Yes! Certainly my process is featured in something significant. I show a inspection on custom essays writing service on a peak criticize tribunal also I wanted it. It was peremptory many the approach gist certainly I am on the sketch of pedantic geniuses.
