Apple said to be working on an iPad video app to compete with cable providers
Well known blogger, Robert Scoble claims that Apple will announce an iPad app to challenge the cable TV giants. The iPad app will provide video content which he claims is the main reason for Apple's huge data center.
I'm hearing that Apple is working on a new iPad app that looks a lot like DirecTV without the dish, too. Again, that app will have Steve Jobs' fingerprints all over it as it will be more expansive than the press is expecting in its content availability. There's a reason Apple built a 500,000-square-foot datacenter (about twice the size of a Facebook one, by the way) and that new datacenter is for video and the data that video causes to be shared with everyone.
As today's event is called "Let's Talk iPhone", I am not sure that this will be the place to announce such an app. More to the point, surely this service would be more suited to the Apple TV than the iPad? I guess we will have to wait and see, not much longer now!

Apple said to be working on an iPad video app to compete with cable providers
Completely convinced that TV is ripe for Apple's next wave of disruptive innovation. And that iAd was designed for HDTV from the start. Apple has already built a swanky office in NYC, presumably for doing TV deals.
The North Carolina data center is just far too big to be for the current iCloud. And Apple has an option to build another 500k square foot data center across the street from that one. It's almost like iCloud is the cover story for the whole operation.
As long as I don't have to buy a new one let's do it!
Well for the mean time, I watch my missed shows in www.streamingtvforipad.com . A/V quality are very good even running on 3G network.
Am really waiting for this.Have explore alot about Lets talk iPhone.Hope it'll be launched.
Apple tv would have already replaced my cable if the premium channels where up to date. I figured that with all of the shows I watch, including the ones I've only seen a couple of episodes of, if I bought all of those full seasons, I would spend about $400 less a year on television. Unfortunately, I'm to hooked on hbo and showtime series to be able to wait for iTunes to catch up.
who cares?lol
I'm developing a blog site and I was thinking of modifying the template.Yours looks pretty nice! You could visit my site and tell me your viewpoint!

It's really easy to setup WiFi internet sharing in OS X (built into the OS - see below).
Is the same possible in Windows 7? (If not, why not? It's 2014! This has been in OS X since Leopard (version 10.5) at least, and more recently, in Linux also.)

Athenaeum Location
announce the first speaker of the semester, John
Densmore, drummer and one of the founding members
of The Doors. His book, Riders on the Storm: My Life with Jim Morrison and The Doors (1990), has been
touted by Rolling Stone as "the first Doors biography
that feels like it was written for the right reasons and
easily the most informed account of The Doors' brief but
brilliant life."
Controversy surrounding The Doors in the sixties and
seventies culminated in the tragic death of the enigmatic
lead singer, Jim Morrison. Last year's release of the film
The Doors resurrected the legend of the band. Oliver
Stone, the director of the film, praised Mr. Densmore
for his "self-experienced insights as a survivor and a
seeker." While the film tends to concentrate on the
tormented psyche of Jim Morrison, Mr. Densmore's
book offers a more holistic perspective of the band.
Mr. Densmore's presentation, "Riding on the Storm: The
Doors, The Sixties, and Now," will include a lecture,
performance, and a video display featuring rare footage
of the band. He will discuss the effect that his
involvement during the sixties had on his value system
and his view of the world, and how he has reconciled
that period of his life with the present.
Dinner will begin at 6:00 and will be available only to
CMC persons; the program will be open to all and will
commence at 7:00 p.m. in McKenna Auditorium.

Scotland. He received his Ph.D. in American studies
from the University of California at Los Angeles. He is
now professor of American studies at Nottingham
University. This year he has the honor of being a

Churchill and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Presently, he is
completing a book on America-Soviet relations entitled
American Soviet Relations from the Bolshevik Revolution to
the Present. Current events are moving too fast to study
in books, however; Dr. Boyle's appearance will give us
an invaluable opportunity to learn about the history
being created today.
Join us for Dr. Boyle's timely address, "American
Policy Towards the Soviet Union." Please use the

One of my favorite foods is cabbage because it's super versatile, has hardly any calories, is free of wheat and gluten, is great for digestion, and is beautiful in color (purple and green). It tastes awesome in salads, gives us valuable probiotics as pickled sauerkraut, plus it works perfectly as a "shell" to be stuffed with yummy fillings to make a delicious hand held treat. I'm currently reintroducing heart-healthy fats into my diet from flax and chia seeds (omega-3), some nuts (vitamin E and antioxidants), and olives to keep my skin supple and moist, especially now that autumn is upon us. I picked up a bunch of avocados at the Farmers' Market, but am disappointed they didn't make it into my bag!
Today, I filled up a red cabbage shell with Chiffonade green cabbage. Watch our "How to Chiffonade" video I shot for Vegetarian Times Magazine: http://www.vegetariantimes.com/video/10). Please watch on the Vegetarian Times website to help generate viewer numbers. Thank you!
I'm also embedding it below from my own YouTube channel:
I first filled up my purple cabbage shell with Chiffonade green cabbage. Next, I layered on a Black Olive Tapenade, from Ani's Raw Food Kitchen, page 155, and Candied Onions, inspired by my Buckwheat-Battered "Fried" Onion Rings, from page 116 of Ani's Raw Food Essentials, plus I added maple syrup to sweeten the onions. I then topped it all with artichoke hearts, and would have added avocado, if I had some on hand.
Black Olive Tapenade
Place all ingredients into food processor, mix well.
Will keep for a week or longer stored in fridge.
Candied Onions
Place all ingredients into mixing bowl. Set aside to marinate and wilt for at least 10 minutes. Add syrup to your liking. I choose to make this sweet! Squeeze excess liquid before using.
Will keep for several days in fridge.
Grab a copy of the April 2011 issue of Delicious Living Magazine and enjoy my Raw Power cover feature with 6 raw food recipes for a preview of the flavors I'll be bringing you in my newest East West Fusion raw food book Ani's Raw Food Asia, available everywhere May 10, 2011.
A super easy salad to make, this is my go to when traveling. Made by massaging avocado into torn leaves of kale and then adding a squeeze of lemon to soften the leaves, and then tossing in sprouts.
Full of vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, and antioxidants to combat travel stress (including time zone changes, sitting on airplanes, and living in hotel rooms) while boosting my immune system. I carried this yummy creation onto my last flight from NJ to LA, and took it with me to Las Vegas for my raw food debut at ACAM's medical conference at the Paris Hotel last week, where they served up 5 of my raw food vegan recipes to over 500 doctors!
Kale, Avocado, Sprouts
Into large mixing bowl, place kale and massage with avocado. Squeeze lemon juice, and massage. Add sprouts and salt, if using. Massage and toss to mix well.
Will keep for several hours at room temperature. Store in fridge for a day or 2.
It was Kanga's 8th 'birthday' and also our anniversary on Labor Day. Each year, I make my darling pooch a heart shaped cake (you may have seen the photo from last year's birthday on page 301 of Ani's Raw Food Essentials). This year, the cake was made with sunflower seeds and a few Medjool dates. Kanga was so eager to eat it, she got green birthday candle wax on the tip of her nose….so cute!
In a blink of an eye, the cake was gone! And, I wonder if you can guess who's in the background with her 'magic' tatoos….hint….London and the UK.
For our birthday ladies' luncheon, I made Jicama Rice, Mexican style by processing Jicama, then adding chopped red bell peppers, onion, corn kernels, cilantro, and a pinch of sea salt. Recipe below…. It was a lunch of British guests, one of whom is a celiac. That means she needs to avoid wheat gluten. I love that about the raw food diet, it's free of wheat, gluten, refined sugar, dairy, and guilt!
I had made myself a beet, parsley, lemon, and cucumber juice earlier that morning, then mixed in the beet pulp with a sunflower pate. I used this pate to stuff poblano peppers, then dehydrated them for a few hours to soften. For a sauce, I blended a simple tahini with lemon juice, salt, splash of water.
This was the dessert my lovely friend Kate Magic made us for dessert! It was made with figs, cacao, coconut, and lucuma…and it was incredible! But this was one course poor Kanga didn't get to try (dogs and cacao don't mix well…chocolate).
Jicama Mexican Rice
Place jicama in food processor, process into small bits. Be careful not to over process. Scoop into mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients, toss to mix well.
Kanga's Birthday Cake
Place sunflower seeds in food processor. Process into small pieces. Add pitted dates, and process. Sunflower will stick together and bind into a cake 'dough'. Form dough into heart, and serve.
Note: Sweets should be served in moderation to dogs, as to humans as well.
If serving to humans or to mix up variations to this recipe, try adding in sea salt, vanilla, cacao / carob, and or goji berries.
I made several smoothies in San Diego on FOX TV including an Almond Buttered Banana Freeze.
Watch my 6-minute video segment here.
Almond Buttered Banana Freeze + Açaí Recipe (adapted from Ani's Raw Food Essentials) Makes 4 servings
Almonds provide calcium, protein, and vitamin E, bananas are loaded with potassium, and açaí is full of antioxidants and healthy omegas. This easy smoothie is a great post workout fuel – it helps increase circulation and blood flow to stressed muscles, while building lean tissue.
Combine the banana, almond butter, and organic Sambazon Açaí Juice in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Best served immediately, but will keep for a couple days in the fridge.
I'm using my favorite blender, the Personal Blender. It costs about $69, and you can find more about the Personal Blender and find organic ingredients at www.GoSuperLife.com.
On Day 3 of my SF book tour, I visited the vibrant Spencer Christian and beautiful Janelle Wang for a return appearance on their afternoon talk show The View from the Bay. Spencer already loves raw vegan foods, and this visit, we may have won Janelle over to our side with my Jap Chae Korean No-Cook Stir Fry Noodles and Berry Kream Tartlets. (The recipes follow below).
Watch video of my TV appearance here.
It's always fun to be made up by a professional make up artist. Skye said she's been working weeks without one day off. A perfect candidate for the raw vegan diet.
Abbeba kicked off this show with her dehydrated crackers and salsa. I like to remind folks raw dishes like guacamole, salsa, gazpacho, and salads are already popular, so raw foods really aren't that much of a stretch from what we're already eating.
I met this pretty teen last year on my Ani's Raw Food Desserts tour. She seems to have grown a foot or more, and has the coolest parents. Her pops brought her to the Ferry Building for my talk on Saturday, and her mom brought her to the TV station. She's thriving on raw, and is continuing to convert and inspire her friends. What an inspiration.
The 2 recipes I made on air were for my Jap Chae, page 224, and Custard Tartletts, page 267. Jap chae is one of my favorite Korean noodle dishes, and it's traditionally made with rice noodles. This recipe was inspired by my mother, who pointed out how similar kelp noodles are to rice noodles. Mom helped me figure out how to season my noodles with pretty much the same ingredients as the cooked version.
Watch video of my TV appearance here.
JAP CHAE – Korean No-Cook Kelp Noodles with Vegetables
Place the onion and mushrooms in a large mixing bowl and toss with salt or soy sauce until mixed well. Nama Shoyu is a raw unpasturized soy sauce, and Bragg's Liquid Aminos is a live food. Another wheat free soy is tamari, if you prefer that. Set aside for at least 15-20 minutes to marinade and soften. Add the carrot and sesame oil. Mix well. Add the noodles and toss to mix well.
Custard Tartlets
CRUST (food processor):
CASHEW KREAM (blended)
To make crust, add nuts and salt into your food processor, and process into small pieces. Add dates to bind together your batter.
Line tartlet pan with plastic wrap. Press 2 tablespoons of the batter into pan. Remove tartlet crust, and place on plate.
Make kream by blending cashews with vanilla and water until smooth.
Scoop into tartlet crust. Top with fresh berry, and serve.
We're offering a special on raw cashews and kelp noodles this month in celebration of my newest book. For organic ingredients and my favorite kitchen tools, visit my estore at: www.GoSuperLife.com
I love my raw food sea vegetables for chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals from the ocean, iodine, and all things good for my health. Iodine works with our thyroid to help regulate our metabolism. Plus, I just love how sea vegetables taste. They're naturally 'salty' from potassium rather than sodium. They're a great add-on to any dish, and also make for a great recipe all on their own. I enjoy nori pretty much daily, wrapped up to hold my favorite fillings….like this arame salad.
Super fast and easy to make, this is a great recipe for when I'm short of fresh ingredients in my house. Seaweed is dried and shelf stable, and I always have hijiki, arame, and nori on hand.
My new favorite spice is yuzu paste. Found at Japanese markets, the paste is made with an aromatic, sour Asian citrus fruit (yuzu) that's highly salted with spicy chili added to the mix. It has a pungent flavor with kick of spice and salt, and I like to add a tiny bit of it to some recipes, like this one. If you can't find yuzu paste, you can just use pinches of salt and chili pepper instead.
The following recipe is super simple, easy and fast to make. It's how I feed myself on busy days when I don't have time to spend in the kitchen. I hope you'll enjoy this. If you want to make it more complex, try adding in a bit of garlic, ginger, and sliced green onions too.
Arame & Sugar Snap Pea Salad
Squeeze all excess liquid from soaked arame. Place into clean mixing bowl with sugar snap peas.
In another small bowl, whisk together vinegar, oil, and yuzu. Mix dressing into bowl with arame and snap peas, toss well.
Serve immediately.
Will keep for 1 day in fridge.

A delicious recipe I taught at the first ever raw food workshop in Phuket, Thailand. It was a packed house, standing room only. A great day of fun, food, and new friends.

To make taco meat, process almonds into small pieces. Add oil, cumin, coriander, and salt, and process to mix well. Set aside.
To make cheeze, process garlic and salt into small pieces. Add cashews, juice, cilantro, and only enough water to process into a thick cream texture. Set aside.
To make salsa, mix ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.
To assemble, fill romaine leaves with about 2 tablespoons cheeze. Sprinkle on 1 to 2 tablespoons taco meat and salsa. Top with avocado slices and serve.

Along with sodium, chloride is one of the two elements that make up salt. According to the Salt Institute, chloride is essential for human nutrition, as it preserves acid-base balance in the body, aids potassium absorption, supplies the essence of digestive stomach acid, and enhances the ability of the blood to carry carbon dioxide from respiring tissues to the lungs. See also sodium and sodium chloride.
CITRIC SALT or SOUR SALT or CITRIC ACID
A salt substance derived from acidic citrus fruits, such as lemon and limes, that is dried and formed into a powder or crystal. When used as an ingredient to flavor foods, it provides a distinctively sour or tart taste. It is a common substance used in sausage making and in canning, to keep the color of fruits from darkening, and is commonly used as a substitute for lemon juice. It is also called for used in some recipes (often called sour salt).
Salt used in curing and preserving food, a mixture of approximately 94% salt and approximately 6% sodium nitrite. It is generally dyed a pink color so that it can be easily recognized from regular salts.
A Viking salt, it is produced by evaporating seawater in a big vessel over an open, smoky fire containing juniper, cherry, elm beech and oak. Rub a small amount into salmon or other fish prior to grilling or roasting.
A salt that is mined, as opposed to evaporated from sea water. Table salt and black salt are examples.

I was not aware that when you apply a gogo that blood shoots out of the opponents mouth.Holy fuck
Any submission, choke in particular where Jeff Monson has his bicep around your neck. Lots of different parts of your anatomy have a possibility of poping out. Just think of the possibilities.
Go without a coat when it's cold; find out what cold is. Go hungry; keep your existence lean. Wear away the fat, get down to the lean tissue and see what it's all about. The only time you define your character is when you go without. In times of hardship, you find out what you're made of and what you're capable of. If you're never tested, you'll never define you character.
Rape Choke > Blood Choke > Air Choke
dude...you're right....Rape Choke trumps all...

How Science Shook My Faith
Sometimes when I am studying evolution, I take a step back and worship my Lord because I am so in awe.
Discovering the Beauty of God's Evolving Creation: My Story
A college student raised as a young-earth creationist shares his story of coming to understand and appreciate God's evolving creation.
All is Dust and DNA
Jim Stump explores the meaning of the Lenten season from the perspective of evolutionary creation.
What makes BioLogos different from Evolutionism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design?
A short guide to where BioLogos fits in the origins debate.
Confessions of a Failed Young-Earth Creationist
I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.
Growing Up Evangelical: My Story of Making Peace With Evolution
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
Saturday Science Links: October 18, 2014
Collection of the best articles of the past several weeks on science (and faith) from around the web.
Ken Ham, We Need a Better Conversation (Perhaps Over Dinner?)
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
Why Evolution Debates Don't Matter
The 1930 showdown between evolutionist Schmucker and creationist Rimmer generated a lot of heat but shed very little light on the real issues behind the debate.
The Evolution of a Southern Baptist
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
Responses to David Barash on God and Evolution in the Classroom
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
The Tradition of Wisdom for Today: a Relational Theology of Science
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
What Americans Think and Feel about Evolution
The new Gallup survey shows in broad strokes the challenge we face. But more nuanced surveys find that only 8% of Americans are convinced creationists whose beliefs are dear to them, and only 4% are convinced atheistic evolutionists whose beliefs are dear to them. The vast majority of Americans are not sure of their position and are open to a conversation.
Interview with Ronald Osborn
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
Ken Ham and Biblical Authority
Because BioLogos accepts the scientific evidence for the age of the earth and common ancestry, Ham believes we are undermining the Bible and denying its authority. However, the authority of the Bible is key for all that we do at BioLogos.
Not All Doctrines Are Equal—Configuring Adam and Eve
Sometimes, out of fear or some sense of being required to defend our position, Church leaders and teachers have hastily set up a boundary marker around some doctrinal theory which they have confused as a core doctrinal issue.
Ham on Nye – What to Watch for
Watch to see whether the debate encourages the opinion that science and Christianity are at war. We don't think you have to choose sides.
Why the Church Needs Multiple Theories of Original Sin
"It's tempting to think that the church needs to decide quickly which of these [original sin] scenarios is right, and which ones must be wrong. I believe the church is better served by taking its time, holding several different scenarios in tension for a while as we think through the implications of each."
Response to Ken Ham
Last week Ken Ham addressed BioLogos specifically in a blog post, in response to Daniel Hamlin's testimony told in our blog on October 14th.

Flowertown Elementary School students recently celebrated the life of Dr. Seuss and their love for reading during the annual Read Across America Week celebration. Each day of the week was based on a theme from a famous Dr. Seuss book. Students wore their favorite colors, crazy socks and shoes, hats, pajamas, and sunglasses on each day of the week to honor such Dr. Seuss titles as My Many Colored Days, The Foot Book, The Cat in the Hat, The Sleep Book, and I Can Read with my Eyes Shut. Along with the fun themes, every grade level had guest readers including Mother Goose, Firefighters from the Summerville Fire Station 2, K9 Officers and their dogs from Summerville PD, The Tooth Fairy, Stingrays Hockey Players, and the Mayor himself. To finish up the week of reading, students participated in a "Read and Rock-a-thon" in the library. They also "popped" into a good book with popcorn provided by the FES PTA. Shown from left are Aspen Moyer, Mekya Venning, Summerville Mayor Bill Collins, Daseon Ladson, and Bailey Rudd.

Comments On Mar 30, 2015:The FMF Q is a big improvement over stock; it's quieter and provides better low-mid hit. The Q is quite a bit longer than stock so the bike has a different look, but the pipe is a nice addition. I'm rating the pipe with a 4 because I was expecting / hoping it'd be more quiet than it is - that being said it is more quiet than stock and has a better overall sound (deeper). I was also expecting a bigger power gain than I felt. All the threads on 2008-2009 YZ450F's say that any aftermarket pipe will add 5 horses, I'm not sure the Q gives that much of a boost. With the Q and a 165 main jet I was better able to wheelie through the deep sandy whoops (4th gear). I also have some peace of mind knowing my pipe is now compliant to state and federal laws regarding noise and spark arrests. Install was easy, I didn't need either of the 2 inserts it came with. The Q simply fit over my header. I used high temp silicon (gasket maker would also work) to seal the 2 pipes together (as listed in the instructions). Install was 15 min. including the time finding my silicon.

Comments On Jan 26, 2015:I bought the exhaust to bolt up to my fmf power bomb header and it was a great fit no leaks and loved the tone very mild but no power restriction and fast shipping from Rocky Mountain
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Dec 03, 2014:This thing is HUGE! From the mounting bolt to the tip of silencer it is 1-3/4 inches longer and weights over a pound more than the stock silencer. If you are looking for performance enhancer I would go with the titanium power core. It has a spark arrester available separately. If all you care about is sound then the Q4 is the one for you.

Comments On Dec 07, 2014:Great exhaust, I love how loud it is though I've had louder. It really adds the extra umph to the wheeler, Hotcams, the Q4 and a Wiesco high comp piston with this wheeler really turns it into an unstoppable force of nature.

Comments On Dec 31, 2013:I have this silencer on my 2013 RMZ450 and my 2009 RMZ450 and it is amazing. I pair it with a power-bomb head pipe and I notice big HP gains from bottom to top end. I believe it is much more quiet then stock but has a better sound. Two thumbs up FMF I would definitely recommend. My only complaint is that the sticker has started to peel off but I stuck it back down with heat resistant epoxy and it looks as good as new!

Comments On Aug 30, 2013:I put this on my DRZ, not know as a fast powerful bike by any means. The combination of this + the Q4 silencer and a rejetting of the carb significantly improved throttle response. Made the bike much easier to control sliding around on gravel corners, blip of the throttle allows me to control just the right amount of oversteer.

LUNCH 11:45 a.m. LECTURE 12:15 p.m.
What underlies much of the current controversy is the idea that the First Amendment means to sever the relation between religion and government. In 2002 Harvard University Press released Philip Hamburger's significant scholarly work, Separation of Church and State, which challenges the prevailing notion that the First Amendment was designed to separate church and state. His groundbreaking book asserts that the original understanding of the First Amendment changed over the years as various individuals and groups used it in order to divide religion and government.
In his Athenaeum lecture Hamburger will talk about the role of the Ku Klux Klan in advocating the separation of church and state. Among the questions he will consider is why one of the most notorious organizations in American history devoted itself to this principle, and what this can reveal about both the Klan and the separation of church and state.
Philip Hamburger is currently the John P. Wilson Professor of Law at the University of Chicago. He has written numerous articles in the fields of constitutional law and legal history on everything from the nineteenth century theory of contract to natural rights and the early American state constitutions.
Professor Hamburger received his B.A. in history from Princeton University and his J.D. from Yale Law School. After working as an associate for Schnader, Harrison, Segal and Lewis in Philadelphia, he has taught law for close to twenty years at various prestigious institutions, including the University of Connecticut and the George Washington University National Law Center.
Lunch will be served at 11:45 am Professor Hamburger will speak at 12:15 pm.

Future, now,now,now just have to get one doesn't matter.
Should you get an iPhone 4S?
Should you upgrade from whatever you have now to an iPhone 4S? The answer to that depends entirely on what exactly you have now, or whether any of the features of iPhone 4S are compelling enough to makes it worth upgrading regardless of what you have now.
Read on for the full breakdown.
Upgrading from an iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, or iPhone 3GS
If you're currently using an original iPhone, iPhone 3G, or iPhone 3GS than your contract has likely expired and you can get an iPhone 4S at full, subsidize price. You can also get an iPhone 4S on Verizon or Sprint in the US, which wasn't an option for any of the pre-iPhone 4S models.
The improvements to iPhone 4S for iPhone 3GS owners are significant. For iPhone 2G or iPhone 3G owners, they're stratospheric. Retina display, a much better camera that shoots HD video, silky smooth multitasking, incredible gaming power, FaceTime video calling, Siri voice control -- the list goes on and on.
Also, you get to keep your apps, you maintain easy access to any iTunes music, TV shows, and movies you might have bought, and your cables stay compatible.
iPhone 4S is almost a no-brainer update from those early iPhone models.
Upgrading from an iPhone 4 to iPhone 4S
If you're currently rocking an Phone 4, the answer isn't as easy. You're probably still on contract with the carrier, so you may not be able to get the fully subsidized price unless you qualify for an early upgrade or you lean on them and their retention departments. There's also not a huge difference in functionality -- more speed, a better camera, Siri voice control, availability on Sprint, and world-phone CDMA roaming being the major differentiators.
- If you're a hardcore gamer or productivity maven whose tolerance for lag is less than zero, the 2x speed and 7x gaming power might tempt you to upgrade.
- If you're a photo and video enthusiast who really wants the "best camera", that 8mp, F2.4, 1080p lens might tempt you to upgrade.
- If you want the future now, now, now, or you're visually impaired, the artificially intelligent, natural language interface Siri promises might tempt you to upgrade.
- If you need Verizon or Sprint at home but have to travel a lot, the ability to roam on international GSM networks might tempt you to upgrade.
iPhone 4S is not a compelling upgrade for most iPhone 4 owners unless you really want or need a specific new feature.
Upgrading from Android, BlackBerry, webOS, or Windows Phone to iPhone 4S
If your current phone of choice runs Android, Windows Phone, or webOS or is a BlackBerry, here's where it gets tricky. If you're not on contract, it's easier. If you are, you need to weigh the pros and cons and see if the features you get outweigh the penalties you'll have to pay.
- iPhone isn't as customizable as Android unless you Jailbreak it (think root), and that's not always possible at first when a new device comes out.
- iPhone doesn't have BBM (BlackBerry Messenger), so if that's what your friends use you'll be out of touch -- and out of luck. iMessage will let you talk with other iOS users in an SMS/MMS type way, and there are cross-platform apps, but none of them are BBM.
- iPhone has the slickest UI and best UX in the business, but it isn't as simple or elegant as the new Metro UI on Windows Phone, or have as good a multitasking metaphor and aggregation system as webOS. It does more (for now) but taste and preference are subjective.
- iPhone only comes in one style and screen size. 3.5-inch slab. No sliders, no flips, no hardware keyboards of any kind, and no option for 4 to 5.5-inches.
- No Adobe Flash video. (That could be a pro or con depending on how you feel about it.)
- No LTE, WiMax, or HSPA+ 21 or 41 mbps options for faster internet.
But iPhone has a lot going for it as well.
- iPhone has multiple layers but the first layer is so incredibly easy to use that the most non-tech savvy of people, people who are moving up from feature phones, can pick it up and get going with it immediately. At the same time it's highly appealing to expert and veteran smartphone users who want to spend their time getting things done, not getting their phones to do things.
- Apple was the first to put a usable web browser on a phone and absent Adobe Flash, Safari is still the most powerful HTML5 browser in the business. Likewise the built in Mail app shows rich content with pictures. VPN, ActiveSync, and other enterprise-friendly features are also built right in.
- It's become a cliché but there really is an app for almost everything on the iPhone. Pretty much every major app and currently all the best games are easily available in the App Store and are so functional people actually use them more than the great web browser these days.
- iTunes and now iCloud, which does a lot of what iTunes used to but without the cable, lets you easily sync your existing content and also gives you access not only to the App Store but iTunes music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, iTunes U (University) and overall more content in more parts of the world than any other service.
- Apple Stores: If you live near an Apple Store, and you have a problem with your phone, there's no passing the buck between carrier and manufacturer, there's no sending your phone away for lengthy repairs. You make a Genius Bar appointment, you show up, they fix your phone or swap it for a new one (if you're still under warranty or Apple Care). They'll also help you set it up and teach you how to use it. If you're new to phones, this is the single best reason to go Apple.
- More: Apple itself creates a ton of other products to supplement the iPhone, including Mac computers, software for Mac and Windows, and together with their partners provide more cases, chargers, docks, car kits, and accessories of every kind. No other smartphone has the quantity or quality of extras, from fashionable to functional, that iPhone has.
If you've only been using another platform because you were waiting for the 2011 iPhone on your choice of carrier -- go get it.
If you like your current platform but are curious or considering the jump to iPhone 4S, wait until you can try one at the store and really get a feel for it.
Upgrading from a feature phone to iPhone 4S.
Yes. Do it now.
(If you're really hard up for up-front cash, consider a $99 iPhone 4 or free iPhone 3GS, but if you can scrape together the $199+ for an iPhone 4S, considering the contract will cost you ~$2000+ over two years, it's not really much of a savings.)

Should you get an iPhone 4S?
Seems pretty compelling to me to upgrade from an iphone 4. But this article seems premature as well until it's reviewed.
2x processor, 7x graphics, hspa+ , 2x storage, better camera, 1080p recording, video stabilization, Siri, wireless mirroring, tweaked antenna, and hopefully better battery. What about that isn't compelling?
...because in a few months there will be an iPhone 5 with even better specs and you will be kicking yourself in the **s for not waiting.
I disagree, the 4s had been invaluable to me because of the Siri feature, the features for disabled people, the camera and video quality alone are worth the upgrade, plus the fantastic speed. I am not sure how or why upgrade programs work, but after purchasing my first Iphone in May, 2011 I was eligible to upgrade my phone to the Iphone 4s by October 22nd, with no raise in cost, or change of plan, other than making it full 2 years again. So what did I loose? 0 What did I gain? My Iphone 4s. I got it for the cost of a first time or out of contract smartphone buyer. I'm completely happy. Also if you are not using gigabytes of data, the $15 a month data plan serves me well, I have never gone over it so no overcharge fees have been charged to me.
can you talk and surf and VZW with the iPhone 4S?
I'm still pretty happy with my 3GS. When a real 4g iPhone is available, I'll jump then.
im on sprint, and i'd rather get the regular ip4 8 gig for the $99. I dont want a phone that talks back to me.
i have a droid inc and i was waiting to see what apple was going to bring to the table, i was a little disappointed but the camera and retina display draw me in, BUT i do want lte since it's in Tucson now and well the flash thing, how bad is it on the iphone, i mean you say the best web browser but if ain't getting the whole web then what good is it? Then i think about oct 11 wit google/samsung and well verizon does have a 15 day return policy right? choices choices
Rene, Rene, Rene.. I love your posts, but you really need a proofreader...
I don't understand if you have an 3GS what are you waiting for I mean really the 3GS doesnt even compare to last years androids. The iPhone 4 is a huge upgrade over the 3GS and the 4s is better than the 4. it just doesn't make since not to in my opinion. I have an LTE android as well I'm not impressed. It's like having a sports car that you never drive because it's the shop all the time for repairs. sure it's fast but at the end of the day it's android native apps crash and force close all the time. Unexceptable.
Siri is 4s only. The jailbreak community is looking at enabling it on the iP4.
Rocking an iPhone 3G here... Was hoping this would have been the 4" screen, but I'm still thinking the iPhone 4 was awesome and this of course is the same just better... going from a 3G to 4S is major as you said, so can't wait!!! I do know one things for sure....... I'll have to pretty much learn everything over w/ all the new stuff now on this computer...
I think ill wait for that other phone that looks to have NEW innovative features and not 6 month old specs. Think its going to be announced Oct 11th.. You know, the one for big kidsadults,not that kids toy stuff.
I'll probably go ahead and upgrade from my iPhone 4, but not for a while. February of next year is when I can get the subsidized pricing again, so I'll probably snatch a 64gb one then. It'll be nice to have ALL of my music on my phone for once.
There is no guarantee the iPhone5 will be out in 8 months. I was in the same place as Aenean14 (3Gs) back in April but with my new baby, I needed a better camera so I couldn't wait and bought the iPhone4. You can't just wait for the next thing, cuz there will always be a new next thing.
Yes because you know all the features and the design of an iPhone 8 months away from release..
That's right iPhone 5 it'll be awesome!!!
Will upgrade to a White 64GB iPhone 4S from iPhone 4 after Novemeber 16th when I can get full subsidized pricing.
I really want the Siri feature while driving, I want the faster processor for a smoother ipod playlist experience when lots of songs are on it, I want the faster 7x graphics for gaming since I play games quit a lot on my iPhone when i'm bored and not busy..oh and im 28 yrs old..lol, also want the better camera since I hardly ever carry around my expensive SLR everywhere I go. Capturing a picture in the moment is worth having a good 8mp point and shoot on your hip/pocket.
AT&T nominally doubles your speed with the 4S over the 4, at least in some areas. That's worth it to me, especially since they offered me the "unlimited" data plan (that I've had from the beginning). We'll see what the 5 looks like when it comes out. I may buy it, too, if they offer upgrade pricing.
My biggest issue is whether I wanna stay with ATT or switch to Verizon. Verizon has WAY better coverage here BUT it does eat at me that I cant do voice+data at the same time (I do it ALOT)
i have a htc thunderbolt that i have had nothing but problems with. good news i talked verizon into an early upgrade this morning after having it replaced 4 times i will be getting a black iphone 4 32G for 199. the few new features of the 4S is not worth it to me. Espically when i can now get a new 32G iphone 4 for $100 cheaper than it was last week
I have a blackberry bold 9700 for tmobile. Shuld I make the jump to the iphone 4s ? I'm confused. Need help. Send me ur opinion firstname.lastname@example.com
Correction: There is very limited multitasking in iOS.. to say it's silky smooth is a bit of a leap since it doesn't fully exist.
I've been on Android dying to go back to iOS... just waited to see what was announced. Since I don't want to waste my upgrade on a 4S (since I was previously very happy with the 4) I'm picking up an iPhone 4 for a pretty good deal, since everyone is dumping them off for the 4S.
I've picked up two 16GB Black iPhone 4 for $200 each. The people just wanted the money to cover the price of the 4S. :-) Pretty good deal if you ask me - it's still a fantastic phone... oh how I've missed that Retina Display.
HAHAHAH, sorry I had to comment...
"iPhone doesn't have BBM (BlackBerry Messenger), so if that's what your friends use you'll be out of touch — and out of luck. iMessage will let you talk with other iOS users in an SMS/MMS type way, and there are cross-platform apps, but none of them are BBM."
I'd switch to iOS messenging and get new friends. Who wants to be friends with Blackberry user? LOL. What would you talk about? "This Blackberry make my thumb hurt"...
Everybody seems to have missed the announcement. Adobe announced at an international developers conference that the New Flash will work on iPhone, iPad and iTouch devices. Here is the link to the MacObserver:http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/adobedeliversflashvideotoiphoneipad/
That's interesting. I just picked up a Bionic and could return it and switch to a 4S, but I'm not inclined to do so. I've had iPhones since the original 2G version (and every generation since) but I don't find the 4S to be a compelling move for some reason. On the other hand, I love the conceptual pics I've seen of a thinner IP5 with the unibody look.
As for LTE speed, if you don't have it where you are then you're right, it's not a compelling argument. But if you have it, woooooosh. What a difference!

If cost is the issue, you can trade in old phones and iPods at places like Best Buy or Target - they will give you a gift card for whatever they determine your old stuff is worth and you can then use the gift card to help pay for the new phone. If the iPhone 4 is $99 and the 4S is $199, but you have items to trade in, you could probably get the cost of a 4S down from $199 to $99 or lower. I traded in old iPods & old cell phones and got enough of a credit that I paid $0 for the 4S - my old stuff was worth more than I thought. It's a great option! P.S. Best Buy is more generous with trade-ins than Target...

Nice list. I also did something similar and maybe can be useful to somebody.

SAVANNAH, Ga. The odd skeleton of wooden beams barely poked above the sands, exposed just enough by wind and tides for a beachcomber to report the curious find.
Fred Boyles, National Park Service superintendent on Georgias Cumberland Island, said the buried beams could have easily been overlooked as ordinary flotsam washed ashore on the beach. But archaeologists called to the remote Atlantic coastal island spent days last week unearthing an astonishing find: an old wooden shipwreck held together with wooden pegs, its backstory lost in time.
Someone had the foresight to say that doesnt just look like normal wood, and thank goodness they called us, Boyles said of the island resident, who stumbled on the wreck around Christmas. Frankly, had I been driving on the beach, I wouldve ridden right by.
This 80-foot-long fragment of history, with some of its wooden siding still intact, is believed to date to the mid-1800s based on its construction, said Michael Steiber, a National Park Service archaeologist trying to crack the mystery of the ships origin.
It might have been delivering supplies to Southern plantation owners who grew cotton, corn and rice on Cumberland Island for decades after the Revolutionary War, Steiber said. Or perhaps it was a Confederate blockade runner that sank during the Civil War.
There is no shortage of potential suspects on Cumberland Island, a place steeped in history. The park service manages the island off the Southeast coast today as a federally protected wilderness.
This has been a high-traffic area ever since the Spanish and the British started colonizing, Steiber said. There are a lot of possibilities.
The archaeologists made copious notes during their days of excavation on the site last week. They drew maps and collected wood samples for testing. Now they are turning to the historical records for clues.
Early Spanish settlers operated missions on the island for roughly a century, from 1587 to 1684. The English arrived not long after Gen. James Edward Oglethorpe founded Georgia as the 13th British colony in 1733. In the 1800s, plantations thrived on Cumberland Island until the regions economy collapsed after the Civil War.
Yet identifying the wreck is proving elusive.
The archaeologists found no telltale artifacts amid the wreckage that might betray its secrets. Nor was there any trace of a name imprinted on the rotting wood frame, which measures roughly 80 feet-by-20 feet. It apparently came from the ships midsection.
The fragment we got obviously washed ashore during a major storm and the rest of the ship itself is probably off in the water, Steiber said.
Parts of the wreckage were under up to 3 feet of sand, he added. We think its been buried for quite a long time.
However, tourists planning trips to Cumberland Island shouldnt be adding the shipwreck to their sightseeing lists.
The National Park Service wont divulge the location of the wreckage. Park rangers figure its unlikely many visitors would find it on their own, considering the island has 17 miles of beach.
And after three days of carefully uncovering and documenting the wreckage, workers wrapped up their work Thursday by taking one final precaution to protect the site.
We covered it back up, Boyles said, meaning they buried their discovery again beneath the sand.
Steiber said that was the best possible option. The rotting wreckage seemed too fragile to be removed intact, he said, and preserving it in an indoor space would be expensive.
Leaving the wreckage exposed on the beach would only lead to further destruction from wind and rain, not to mention possible damage and pilfering by island visitors.
Its kind of sad and disheartening after spending that much time uncovering it, Steiber said. But he concluded: its safer for the wreck to be left where it is.

Wounded Ill and Injured (WII)
Pay and Allowance Continuation (PAC)
Under the PAC program, pay and allowances may be continued for up to one year for service members who incur a wound, injury or illness in the line of duty while serving in a combat operation or combat zone and are hospitalized for treatment of the wound, injury or illness.
PAC also includes service members who incur wounds, injuries or illnesses while serving in a hostile fire area or while exposed to a hostile fire event and are hospitalized for treatment of the wound, injury or illness.
The establishment of the PAC program was authorized by the Fiscal Year 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which became Public Law 110-181. Although PAC ends one year after the date on which a member is first hospitalized for the treatment of the qualifying event, it may be extended under extraordinary circumstances by the Principal Deputy Under Secretary for Personnel and Readiness. Entitlement may end earlier if a member is returned for assignment to other than a medical or patient unit for duty. Entitlement terminates irrevocably on the date the member is discharged, separated or retired (including temporary disability retirement) from the uniformed services.
The PAC program replaced the Combat-related Injury Rehabilitation Pay (CIP) program authorized by the FY 2006 NDAA. The CIP program provided for payment of $430 per month when a member was evacuated from the theater of a combat operation or combat zone for medical treatment. The $430 per month payable under CIP was intended to replace certain pay and allowances a member receives during deployment; hostile fire pay ($225/month); hardship duty pay ($100/month); and the incidental expense (IE) portion of their temporary duty per diem allowance ($105/month). However, it did not address the termination of certain other special/incentive pays after medical evacuation.
To read the portion of the FY 2008 NDAA that authorizes PAC, go to www.thomas.gov and search for P. L. 110-181. The authorization for PAC is contained in section 661 of P.L. 110-181 (where section 372 of Title 37 is authorized).

From iRedMail
Revision as of 19:02, 30 December 2013 by ZhangHuangbin (Talk | contribs)
Note: This feature was added in iRedMail-0.6.1.
iRedMail-0.6.0 and eariler versions with MySQL backend doesn't support catch-all account by default, which stored in MySQL. but you can implement it with below steps:
- Edit /etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf:
|File: /etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_alias_maps.cf
# ---- OLD SETTING ---- query = SELECT goto FROM alias WHERE address='%s' AND active='1' # ---- NEW SETTING ---- query = SELECT goto FROM alias WHERE (address='%s' OR address='@%d') AND active='1'
- Restart postfix.
- Now you can add catch-all account for existing domain 'domain.ltd' in vmail.alias table, like this:
$ mysql -uroot -p mysql> USE vmail; mysql> INSERT INTO alias (address, goto, domain) VALUES ('@domain.ltd', 'email@example.com', 'domain.ltd');
This mysql command creates catch-all address for domain domain.ltd, all mails sent to non-exist accounts will be delivered to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Box Office was my favorite movie app...
"Users could "favorite" certain theaters to bump them to the top, and quickly click through the RottenTomatoes or MetaCrytic reviews, movie information"
Yep- great app- what's the deal? Apple seems out of control on some of the app stuff- that's for sure...
Apple Pulls Box Office from App Store?
Box Office is missing. No, we're not talking about the gross from the latest Eddie Murphy "film", we're talking about the iPhone App. While NetShare remains in its very own little Schrodinger's App box, some carriers' (AT&T, Rogers, etc.) prohibition against tethering and Nullriver's Installer.app/Cydia roots makes the drama at least somewhat fathomable. What about Box Office?
Box Office is (was?) an App that used either manually entered or CoreLocation derived positional information to show you a list of theaters and movies playing within a user-definable radius (e.g. 10 miles). Users could "favorite" certain theaters to bump them to the top, and quickly click through the RottenTomatoes or MetaCrytic reviews, movie information, etc. In other words, it was a useful piece of software in the otherwise incredibly high noise to signal ratio (i.e. CrApps to quality) the initial App Store land rush has given us.
And now it's gone.
Yup. For the last couple days, clicking on the Box Office link returns an iTunes error saying the app is not available in (your country) store. Posting on the MacRumors forums, developer Metasyntactic, claims not to know why it was pulled either (after the jump):
Apple pulled the app yesterday without giving my any notification that they were doing it, or what their justification was for removing it.
I've tried to contact them about the issue, but it's been a complete dead end. If anyone has a useful contact number for apple, please let me know.
I'm in regular contact with all my data providers, and none of them have had an issue with my app. Indeed, the response was the exact opposite. They like my app and have even asked if i would do custom application work for them in the future. Furthermore, all the data i use is licensed by the owners as 'free for non commercial use'. i.e. precisely what BoxOffice is.
So i'm stuck here not knowing what has happened, or what i can do about it. If any of you have any ideas, please let me know. You can respond here, but i'd actually appreciate a reply at email@example.com since i probably won't check back here that often.
While Apple has been slowly improving their communications with MobileMe issues and download counts for developers, and has been getting more and more Apps online, the seemingly random length of the approval process and capricious nature of take downs really needs to get some transparency enhancements, at least for the developers.

Apple Pulls Box Office from App Store?
Box Office was my favorite movie app...
Actually, the new version of the movies.app can use GPS information.
They may have pulled it because it is opensource, and disclosing the source may violate the NDA developers have to abide by currently.
This is why the App Store concept sucks. Apple gets in the middle of the relationship between you and the developer, and they can stop you from getting the apps you want for any reason or no reason at all. More freedom, please.
@John: I think this is the opposite of that. 4 launches all at once were impossible for even Jobs to micromanage.
Apparently it's been renamed Now Playing will be released again to the App Store. Hasn't showed up yet as of this writing. See http://code.google.com/p/metasyntactic/.
I love people that write comments without reading the comments people have already left. The answer is often in the comments. Tried reading before writing.
No matter how you slice it Gaeg, your 8/4 comment is neither warranted or intelligent. Please add something to the thread besides your hate.
I have a friend that downloaded in and I pulled the installer file from his computer and put on my pc. It installed and is working great. Apple at it again...and we keep buying it why?
I would bet that it was pulled for reasons similar to why the Tomatometer dashboard widget was pulled by the developer:
Hey. I don't know if this helps but I emailed Steve Jobs about this and he actually responded . Here is the message he sent:
Well your wrong. BoxOffice used Rotten Tomatoes ratings without asking Fox, their owner, for permission. Fox objected to copyright infringement and we agreed.

[b]How playing can help your toddler develop[/b]
Numerous studies have shown us that the act of playing is indeed an essential part of childhood. Play helps a child develop cognitive, social, language and motor skills in a fun and imaginative way. Children's toys and games supplement a child's ability to interact with and explore the world around them. Fun, imaginative, creative and interactive children's toys help youngsters explore social roles, expand language skills and foster creativity. Parents should always provide their children with toys that are educational, stimulating and creative so that these toys enhance their child's development.
Young children such as toddlers benefit most from children's toys that help them build up their skills in every area since they are still at the point where they are acquiring these developmental skills. Toddlers benefit most from games that allow them to fine-tune their skills. They need toys that will enhance their fine and gross motor skills, language skills as well as their social skills.
Children's toys such as building blocks, dress up kits, simple arts and crafts sets are great toys for toddlers. Toys that require a toddler to manipulate objects draw or paint using different tools, build things will help them develop their fine and gross motor skills. Children's toys that require a toddler to pretend play either through dressing up or through imitation helps develop social and language skills. Certain children's toys help toddlers develop cognitive skills such as reasoning skills, visual-spatial skills, numerical skills and more.
Toddlers are at a stage where they require support to develop skills in every area of development and this is why it is important for parents to provide their children with the right toys. When choosing toys for a toddler parents should remember to check if the toy is age appropriate and suited for the developmental level of the child. A toy that is too challenging for a child will not contribute to development but it will lead to frustration. The children's toys should not only be interactive and colourful but it should contribute in some way to the toddler's development. Children's toys should always be made out of the highest quality materials and should use materials that are safe and toxin free. To ensure that you invest in a product that is safe for your toddler buy brands that you know assure quality children's toys.
Children's toys are a great way to enhance and supplement your toddler's developmental skills and ensure that they are ready to take the next step. Parents who provide their toddlers with the correct children's toys are investing in their child's future.
