|Crusher is right, this route is a free soloists dream (or nightmare ...). Being a wimp, I have considered toproping it, but even this doesn't seem possible. The climb is over 200 feet long, and even if you did manage to throw up a top rope, a fall would result in a nasty diagonal slide that could still be rather ugly.

Port Elliot-Middleton Cemetery
Alexandrina Council, South Australia
Here we see a stone that has a death date of 1883, so we know the cemetery must go back that far.

text: Before the beginning of the WWII an edict to create a "zone of total defence" around Moscow was adopted. This area included different fortifications that could detain fascists for some time if they came up to Moscow. Huge buildings, bunkers, tank guns and trenches were constructed very quickly. That is prisoners who must hold the defence. Fortunately there was no need to do this. The enemy army was stopped on the approaches to the fortified area. Here we'll speak about one of such places that is located in Nakhabino town of the Moscow region.

A step in the right direction
It was rumored earlier this month that Samsung and Hewlett-Packard were both working on Chrome OS all-in-one desktops, but it looks like Acer has beat them to the punch. Not only that, but Acer's new Chromebase AIO is the first of its kind to sport a touchscreen display, the company says. Acer was also the first to launch a 15.6-inch Chromebook as it tries to solidify itself as a top Chrome OS player.
It's been a while since we've reviewed a "gaming all-in-one" PC, so it's refreshing to get MSI's AG270 in our lab. The AIOs we usually get come with weaksauce mobile GPUs such as Nvidia's 630M, or worst yet, no discrete graphics card at all. That isn't the case with this AIO, which comes with the GeForce GTX 880M. For those unfamiliar with this top-of-the-line mobile GPU, it has a 954MHz graphics clock and 8GB of GDDR5 VRAM that's clocked at 2,500MHz. As far as mobile GPUs go, there are none faster at the moment.
Once the Game Developers Conference (GDC) comes to an end, attention will turn to PAX East, which takes place in Boston from March 6–8. That means even more product announcements, though some companies are too excited to wait.
Between all the Galaxy smartphone and tablet releases, we're a little surprised Samsung has time to take a breath, let alone announce a pair of sleek looking PC products. Yet that's exactly that the company has done today.
Over the past two days, Maximum PC Online Managing Editor Jimmy Thang has been scouring the fairly busy Blizzcon 2014 show floor in Anaheim California for stuff worth writing home about.
For a long while, owning an all-in-one was cost prohibitive for many people, as most models carried premium price tags. Prices have certainly come down in recent years, though there's not a ton of options in the way of entry-level AIOs for those who might be interested in such a system. However, that may change.
MSI has gone and upgraded its 27-inch all-in-one gaming PCs with Nvidia's recently announced Maxwell-based mobile GPUs, the GeForce GTX 970M and 980M.
Poke your head into Best Buy and take a peek at the computer section. In it you'll find lots tablets, laptops (including hybrids), and all-in-one systems, along with a small selection of desktop towers. AIO PCs have been around for many years now, but only recently became popular, in part because of dropping prices. You have to think that the prominence of touchscreen displays helped matters too.
Michael Dell is now in full control of the company he founded (along with the investment groups that backed him), and while he was quick to take the world's third largest PC maker private, that doesn't mean there will be any shortage of public announcements.
Whether it's little Billy headed off to college or dad needing a new rig for his office, space saving designs seem to be the popular choice these days. The all-in-one (AIO) form factor is especially popular right now, and luckily there are companies that are focused on delivering high-end hardware inside these machines.
AOC is getting the work week started by rolling out a pair of mySmart All-in-One systems running Android 4.2 Ice Cream Sandwich. There are two versions: the 22-inch A2272PW4T and the 24-inch A2472PW4T.
We're still waiting on someone to build a premium 30-inch all-in-one (AIO) with high-end gaming components, ample cooling, and easy upgrade features. Perhaps someday. On the opposite end of the spectrum, a handful of PC makers are reportedly going to test the market for smaller size AIO PCs. We're talking 15-inch to 17-inch models, which some surmise could decrease the demand for larger laptops.
It's still early in the year, but perhaps one day we'll look back at 2014 as the year Google's Chrome OS made head roads in the desktop PC market. A quick look at the landscape shows that Chromebooks are already pretty popular, but that could be only the beginning.

Securities laws are meant to protect investors from unscrupulous business owners. These laws require corporations to jump through some hoops before accepting investments in exchange for shares of stock (the "securities"). Technically, a corporation is required to register the sale of shares with the federal Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and its state securities agency before granting stock to the initial corporate owners (shareholders). Registration takes time and typically involves extra legal and accounting fees.
Fortunately, many small corporations can skip the registration process because of exemptions provided by both federal and state laws. For example, SEC rules don't require a corporation to register a "private offering," which is a non-advertised sale of stock to either:
Most states have enacted their own versions of this popular federal exemption.
If you and a few associates are setting up a corporation that you'll actively manage, you will no doubt qualify for an exemption, and you will not have to file any paperwork. For more information about federal exemptions, visit the SEC website at www.sec.gov. For more information on your state's exemption rules, go to your secretary of state's website; you can find links to each state's site at the website of the National Association of Secretaries of State, www.nass.org.

It surprises many Americans to learn that 25 percent of all deaths in the U.S. are veterans. That's 1,800 people a day; more than 680,000 veterans every year. These heroic Americans deserve recognition for their military service — particularly at the end of life's journey.
Snowline Hospice is grateful for the important contributions made by these men and women. A resource is available to healthcare professionals to help them honor veterans.
The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization in collaboration with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) launched We Honor Veterans, a pioneering campaign to help improve the care veterans receive from hospice and palliative care providers.
Snowline Hospice is a committed We Honor Veterans Partner.
As a We Honor Veterans Partner, hospices implement ongoing veteran-centered education for their staff and volunteers to help improve the care they provide to the veterans they proudly serve.
The nation is seeing many of the veterans who served in World War II and Korean Conflictpass away — and the number of deaths of Vietnam veterans is beginning to rise.
The We Honor Veterans campaign provides tiered recognition to organizations that demonstrate a systematic commitment to improving care for veterans.
"Partners" can assess their ability to serve veterans and, using resources provided as part of the campaign, integrate best practices for providing end-of-life care to veterans into their organization.
By recognizing the unique needs of our nation's veterans who are facing a life-limiting illness, hospices are better able to accompany and guide veterans and their families toward a more peaceful ending. And in cases where there might be some specific needs related to the veteran's military service, combat experience or other traumatic events, We Honor Veterans hospice partners will find tools to help support those they are caring for.
"All hospices are serving veterans but often aren't aware of that person's service in the armed forces," said J. Donald Schumacher, NHPCO president and CEO. "Through We Honor Veterans we are taking a giant step forward in helping hospice and palliative care providers understand and serve veterans at the end of life and work more effectively with VA medical facilities in their communities."
"The VA shares a common goal with our nation's hospices and that is to provide the best possible care specifically tailored for veterans, meeting their goals of care in their preferred setting. As we focus on working together and unite our services and skills, We Honor Veterans will channel our combined strengths directly to veterans — wherever they are receiving care," said Thomas Edes, VA director of Home and Community Based Care,
"America's Veterans have done everything asked of them in their mission to serve our country and we believe it is never too late to give them a hero's welcome home. Now it is time that we step up, acquire the necessary skills and fulfill our mission to serve these men and women with the dignity they deserve," added Schumacher.
The resources of We Honor Veterans focus on respectful inquiry, compassionate listening and grateful acknowledgment, coupled with Veteran-centric education of health care staff caring for veterans.
Snowline Hospice, the NHPCO and the VA are proud to share this available resource.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Remi Dibo, a 6-foot-9 junior college forward who provides most of his offense from the perimeter, committed to West Virginia on Tuesday night, becoming the sixth big man in the Mountaineers' 2013 signing class.
At Casper (Wyo.) College last season, the French native Dibo scored 18.2 points per game while grabbing 4.9 rebounds and making 41 percent of his 3-point tries. As a freshman he averaged 12.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and shot 40 percent from 3-point range. Over two seasons, he shot better than 78 percent from the free-throw line.
In the highlight video above, Dibo shows potential as a "stretch-4" — something WVU sorely lacked last season as it transitioned to the Big 12 and ranked among the bottom in 3-point shooting.
Upon finishing his senior season of high school ball at Mountain State Academy during the spring of 2010, Dibo planned to sign with Kentucky. But then five-star prospect Terrence Jones decommitted from Washington and took the Wildcats' final scholarship. Academic problems would have nixed his Dibo's entrance at Kentucky anyway, so he landed at Casper College, where he redshirted one year before taking a starring role the past two seasons.
Dibo is scheduled to receive his associates degree later this month, allowing him to spend the summer training in Morgantown. Three other Big 12 programs — Oklahoma State, Kansas State and Texas Tech — showed interest in Dibo this season, as did Clemson, Colorado State and Wyoming.
Barring another transfer from West Virginia's current roster, or an academic failure on the part of WVU's other five signees, Dibo's commitment wraps up the 2013 recruiting class. That means no room for Martinsburg High forward Donte Grantham, who received an offer from WVU last month but is still considering the likes of Clemson, George Mason, James Madison or perhaps devoting a year to prep school.
After West Virginia signed four frontcourt players in November — 6-foot-8 Delvin Williams (Montverde, Fla.), 6-8 Elijah Macon (Columbus, Ohio), 6-10 Brandon Watkins (Decatur, Ga.) and 6-7 Nathan Adrian (Morgantown, W.Va.) — speculation shifted to Bob Huggins bringing in at least one guard during the spring signing period. Instead, WVU settled on two more forwards with jump-shooting range, signing 6-foot-9 junior college forward Jonathan Holton (Miami, Fla.) on Monday before adding Dibo.

Did any of you guys (and gals) listen to statewide sports line last night. They interviewed a guy from something like jucorecruiting.com. He said these last two signings were perfect for WVU and that these kids would contribute immediately. He said they were flying under the radar and Huggs got them before any of the big time schools knew they were available. He also said 2 more weeks and they would have had offers from a lot of big time programs. Sounded to me like Huggs did real good. Time will tell.
There's a link to the interview on this page on the right hand side.
I'm thoroughly convinced that "tw eagle", "big tom" and "WILLIAM" are actually the same person obsessively posting from somewhere in his mother's basement, and suffering from schizophrenic delusions. My guess is that he has never actually played a sport in his life, and he's eternally embittered by the beatings he used to suffer at the hands of the jocks who took pleasure in punking his snarky little butt on a daily basis.
2 words ... "Seek therapy".
Low Rider
Just for clarification, Huggins is the 15th highest paid D1 coach, making less than heavyweights like Buzz Williams, Matt Painter and yes...John Beilein.
I am not suggesting in any way that Huggins is underpaid, but for those who think he is grossly overpaid, this is the cost of doing business at the major college level.
As for his recruiting this year, I get a feeling of desperation. This latest signing I understand, but I still don't get signing the kid out of Florida that was kicked out of URI.
I for one don't mind WILLIAM AND tweagle view points....they bring out the best in us all. Odd though, tweagle comments in caps and her sign on name in lower case..interesting. As for Grantham, maybe he'll be there next year if he decides on prep school. Looks like we will be signing on another foreign player..hope he turns out better than the previous experiment.
Question? Are Big Tom and William actually Marshall grads?
I really wish they would disable all comments for these articles. After reading it, the comment section is like seeing a buttcrack hanging out of a pair of pants. It doesn't matter whos crack it is, your eyes always drift to catch a peek.

Re: Murtha and Wolf
Not surprisingly, Murtha blatantly contradicted himself in his CNN appearance with Wolf Blitzer. As Dave points out, first Murtha said he didn't know money was being offered. Then he said, "they offered me the money, I said no." Did Wolf Blitzer call Murtha out on his explicit contradiction and likely fib? Of course not. Blitzer continued lobbing gentle questions with carefulness one would expect from an aging soft-ball coach.
Blitzer quickly went on to change the subject from Murtha's involvement in Abscam to the subject of why someone would bring this up at all. He then allowed Murtha to go on and criticize President Bush's handling of the Iraq War and comment on Bob Woodward's new book -- a story that dominated Blitzer's broadcast for the previous 45 minutes before the Murtha segment.
One thing Murtha mentioned did ring true, though. He cited politicians' underestimation of the American public. Well, Jack, as you said in the Abscam video: it's all about appearances, "public relations." Unfortunately Jack's greatest fear is coming true. As he said while being offered a $50,000 bribe, you've got to be careful, otherwise "the son of a bitch all falls apart...eight years from now." So he was off by 18 years!

The Break-up
There's nothing subtle about Gary Grobowski's (Vince Vaughn) approach when he makes a pass at Brooke Meyers (Jennifer Aniston) during a Chicago Cubs baseball game. It's a kind of clutch and grab come-on that ought to make any girl turn and run. Instead, the opening credits are a montage of happy snapshots showing the two of them during a 2-year relationship that followed their initial meeting.
The pictures give no hints of brewing trouble. But there is trouble and it all comes to a head following a dinner for the couple's respective families who are as oddly matched as the brash city tour guide and the svelte high-end art dealer.
For the record, the catalyst behind their big break-up isn't really about forgotten lemons, dirty dishes or an obsession with violent video games. It's about the lack of consideration and appreciation that too commonly creeps into comfortable relationships. And on that point the movie has something to say.
Unfortunately, it doesn't say it very well. Instead of addressing the kinds of cooperation and negotiation needed for success in long-term relationships, the film focuses on the escalating exchange of nasty jabs between Gary and Brooke as they try to one-up the bad behavior of the other. The results are loud verbal outbursts, wild strip poker parties, flaunted nudity and a string of dates used as unsuspecting pawns. As well as turning to his bartender friend (Jon Favreau) for advice and a drink, Gary, along with Brooke, drag their mutual pals into the fray forcing them to pick sides in the ongoing battle.
Billed as a romantic comedy, the script relies on sexually charged comments, body waxing, ethnic jokes and suggestions of homosexuality for humor. As well, the movie contains depictions of back and buttock nudity, profanities and strong sexual terms. After spending nearly two hours with this unhappy couple obsessed with looking for hurtful ways to bring each other to his or her knees, it's hard to understand why they want to stay together. Likewise, a lack of on-screen chemistry between the performers -- and the fact it's hard to laugh at something as painful as this break-up -- makes it hard to understand why the audience will want to stay and watch.

When does the iPad Air 3 come out? I'm already looking forward to the next iPad's launch date in 2016. And what new features, specs and design changes can we expect in the new iPad Air when it's released?
Update (05/02/2016): The last update focuses on the latest iPad Air 3 release date rumours, namely those claiming that we'll be seeing the iPad Air 3 announced at a March 15 2016 event.
We started looking forward to the iPad Air 3 launch almost as soon as the iPad Air 2 came out in 2014 - and when iOS 9 was announced, the countdown to the iPad Air 3 launch date began in earnest. No new iPad Air was launched in autumn 2015, so when will the iPad Air 3 come out? Here are all the latest rumours about the new iPad Air 3, from design and new features to dimensions, specs, UK launch date and UK price.
Welcome to our iPad Air 3 rumours article, discussing the latest hints about the iPad Air 3 release date, specs and UK price. We present all the available information, rumours and clues about the new iPad Air for 2016, including the probable iPad Air 3 release date, new features in the iPad Air 3, and images of the iPad Air 3 - both concept illustrations and leaked photos as they emerge. We will also analyse the iPad Air 3 rumours for their credibility based on our long experience of Apple product launches.

iPad Air 3 release date rumours: When will the new iPad Air 3 come out?
We originally predicted an October 2015 launch for the iPad Air 3, based on past behaviour from Apple. The iPad Air 2 was unveiled to journalists on 16 October 2014; The iPad Air 1 was announced on 22 October 2013, and released at the start of November. This is Apple's standard iPad release schedule, and the announcement of iOS 9 at WWDC 2015 on 8 June, same as every year, suggested that things were proceeding as usual.
But 2015 was a surprising year for iPad announcements. At Apple's September press briefing, where we would traditionally expect to hear about iPhones, iPhones and more iPhones, the company risked overshadowing the first sighting of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus by unveiling the iPad Pro (and then slipping out the iPad mini 4, which is actually a far more valuable and appealing update than last year's iPad mini 3). But there was no sign of the next mid-size iPad Air.
It had been rumoured before the announcement that the iPad Pro was such an important product for Apple that it had shifted resources away from the iPad Air 3 in order to get it finished - with the result that the iPad Pro and iPad mini 4 would launch together in autumn, and the iPad Air 3 would have to wait until 2016. 9to5Mac noted that the report seemed a little "sketchy", but it turned out to be spot on.
Many pundits speculated that the iPad Air 3 had been pushed back to October, the usual month for iPad launches, but Apple kept quiet on the subject. And now we're left to wonder if we'll see any update to the iPad Air lineup between now and autumn 2016. Indeed, some leftfield rumours suggest that Apple may have brought this line to an end, and will in future focus on the mini and Pro ranges. That strikes us as crazy talk, mind you.
iPad Air 3 coming in the first half of 2016 'but won't significantly increase Apple revenue'
Respected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has predicted that the iPad Air 3 will be unveiled in the first half of 2016, so the March launch event detailed below could be on - or we might still have to wait until summer.
In a further investor report on 24 January 2016, Kuo maintained the prediction of an early-2016 launch, but sounded a note of caution, suggesting that the Air 3 launch wouldn't have much of an effect on Apple's bottom line. (Kuo was similarly cautious about sales of the iPhone 6c or iPhone 6se, but suggested that new MacBooks are "a stronger candidate for becoming a theme given solid growth in the business segment, as well as a potential upgrade to hit the market in 1H16".)
iPad Air 3 rumoured to launch in March 2016 - but who started the rumour?
Of late, a number of Apple pundits and tech rumour sites have become fixated on March 2016 as the likely launch date of the iPad Air 3. (And we certainly wouldn't like to rule out a spring launch - it would seem odd for Apple to go two full years between updates of its classic iPad range.) The only thing is that the source everyone is pointing to doesn't actually predict a March launch.
Now, I'm the first to admit that I can't read Chinese, so I'm relying here on good old (not particularly good) Google Translate. But according to that service, the page on MyDrivers that multiple tech websites have linked to says:
"Latest news, Apple has not forgotten iPad Air 3, but postponed, but release indeterminate time, it will be available as early as October, or at the end of this year or early next year."
In other words (and apologies for the stilted translation-ese), the site doesn't claim to know when the iPad Air 3 will launch, observing instead that this is "indeterminate" and then offering three relatively widely spaced possibilities (one of which has already been proved wrong). And it doesn't specifically mention March at all, although the third prediction is vague enough that it could just about include March at a push.
There's a few possible explanations for this:
1) MyDrivers have edited their page, and it no longer says what is did when everyone linked to it - it is a couple of months old, after all (although it seems odd that they'd leave the October prediction intact while editing out a prediction that could yet be spot-on). They could also have set up a redirect to a different article;
2) That there is a MyDrivers page that predicts a March launch, but the first Western journalist to notice it accidentally linked to an older article on the same site and everyone else copied the link in good faith;
3) That Google Translate is letting me down somehow and the article says exactly what the other sites claim it does, and unlike me their reporters can read Chinese;
4) That I am being an idiot in some other unspecified way;
5) Or that nobody bothered to check the source they were linking to and a rumour has therefore been started based on no evidence at all.
Ultimately all that I can state definitively is this: quite a lot of tech websites - not all of them, by any means, but enough to call it a trend - are currently reporting a rumour that the iPad Air 3 will launch in March 2016; and I for one cannot work out where this rumour came from. If anyone reading this does have a source that points to a March announcement, please let me know and I will eat my words. Or at least update this article.
iPad Air 3 to launch alongside 4in iPhone in March
So it seems that I may have to eat my words, as 9to5Mac recently claimed, citing sources with knowledge of the subject, that Apple is set to launch the highly-anticipated iPad Air 3 alongside the 4in iPhone (iPhone 6c or 5se depending on which rumours you believe) and a handful of new Apple Watch straps at an event onTuesday March15 2016. It's said that Apple won't be using the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco as it did when it launched the iPhone 6s, and the company is instead opting for a smaller affair, possibly being held at Apple's Town Hall in Cupertino.
While there is no official word from Apple, we think this is more than likely, especially considering earlier rumours pointing towards a March 2016 release date (for both the iPad Air 3 and iPhone 6c).
iPad Air 3 UK onsale date rumours
When will the iPad Air 3 go on sale in the UK? There's usually a delay of around 10 days between the announcement and the devices going on sale. If the Air 3 launches in mid-March 2016, for example, then expect it to hit UK shops in late March.
There are occasionally shortages when a major Apple product launches, so those who are desperate to get their hands on the Air 3 would be wise to place a pre-order if possible. (Pre-ordering using Apple's own Apple Store app rather than on the website often appears to give you a head start that could make all the difference.)

The iPad Air 3 may arrive in spring 2016, but by no means every iPad owner will make the upgrade. How often do you buy a new iPad?
iPad Air 3 release date rumours: Design
Let's look next at the iPad Air 3's physical design. What will the iPad Air 3 look like (and feel like)?
iPad Air 3 design rumours: Smart Connector
We've seen a leaked schematic of the iPad Air 3 (see the images and videos section), and this appears to confirm that the iPad Air 3, like the iPad Pro, will have a Smart Connector on the lefthand edge for attaching a Smart Keyboard Cover.
Most iPad accessories are dependent on their own battery power - even the Apple Pencil has to be recharged, albeit very quickly, when it runs out of charge - but the Smart Connector allows a connected keyboard cover to draw power from the iPad's battery. In the iPad Pro's case, that means a very long usage time, since it has a monster battery; hopefully the iPad Air 3 will be able to offer something impressive in that department too.
iPad Air 3 design rumours: Thinner than the iPad Air 2
Physically, it's rumoured that the next iPad Air will be… wait for it… thinner than its predecessor.
"Additional [rumours] claim the iPad Air 3 will be thinner than the iPad Air 2," says Cult of Mac, "thanks to a smaller battery allowing it to shrink down to just 5mm thick (compared to the 6.1mm thickness of the iPad Air 2), as well as possibly including waterproofing or dust-resistant features."
It's generally a sound prediction to make, given that the iPad Air 1 was thinner than the iPad 4 and the iPad Air 2 was thinner than the iPad Air 1. The iPad Air 2 is already really thin, mind you, and we do sometimes wonder how much thinner tablets need to get before the compromises start to outweigh the benefits. The Air 2 is sturdy and has stood up to more than a year's heavy and frequent use, but we still recall the nervousness with which we handled it in the early days: it's hard to see an even more slender iPad Air 3 inspiring a great deal of confidence in its ability to withstand bending, chucking on a sofa, holding by one edge etc.
If batteries are getting smaller, couldn't they just keep it the same size and incorporate a higher-capacity battery unit, and give us a few more hours away from the charger?
Indeed, one rumour suggests that the Air 3's thinner chassis will actually mean it has a lower-capacity battery unit than the Air, which seems crazy to us. (Even though improvements in battery technology could mean that this lower-capacity unit actually lasts for a comparable length of time in practice, it seems barmy to consciously choose not to improve battery life when simply keeping the same capacity unit would achieve this.)
iPad Air 3 design rumours: 7000-series aluminium body
We mentioned above our general nervousness that a thinner iPad Air 3 would also be less robust. But one other change to its physical design could help with that.
The Tampa Bay Review thinks the iPad Air 3 is likely to be made of 7000-series aluminium, like the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus. There's a certain logic to this: spending the extra cash on stronger materials to make the newest iPhones more bend-proof than their predecessors was a popular move after the (possibly overstated) traumas of Bendgate. But it does raise the question of why the iPad Pro (which is more valuable) and the iPad mini 4 (which is more portable, and therefore more likely to get crammed into a pocket) missed out on this upgrade.
If the Air 3 is thinner than either of those devices then we have an answer, but that only poses another: what is it about the Air lineup in particular that makes it more deserving of a super-thin body than those other Apple tablets?
iPad Air 3 design rumours: iPad Air 3 colour options
We'd expect the iPad Air 3 to be available in Apple's now-standard three iOS device colour options: silver, space grey and gold.
Every year someone suggests that the next iPad will come in the bright primary colours of the iPhone 5c and every year that person is disappointed. We don't expect the iPad Air 3 to be particularly colourful (except for that lovely gold finish).
iPad Air 3 rumours: Specs
It's time to look deeper into the iPad Air 3. What do the latest rumours say about the iPad Air 3's specs?
iPad Air 3 specs rumours: 4-speaker audio setup
If the leaked schematic of the iPad Air 3 (see the leaked images and videos section) is to be believed, the iPad Air 3 is going to double its number of speakers: like the iPad Pro, it will apparently feature four. More importantly, there will be more of a separation (two are at the top and two at the bottom), since part of previous iPads' comparative audio weakness can be traced to the fact that their two speakers sit right next to each other.
iPad Air 3 specs rumours: No 3D Touch
3D Touch, the sophisticated pressure-sensitive screen technology on the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, will not make an appearance in the next 9.7-inch iPad. Or so says Ming-Chi Kuo, one of the most famous Apple pundits out there.
In a research paper, Kuo predicts that the iPad Air 3 will launch in the first half of 2016 - which fits in with growing rumours of a March event that could also see the debut of the iPhone 6c and Apple Watch 2 - but won't get the marquee feature from the flagship iPhones.
In the past, Apple has frequently introduced a new feature on the iPhone line and then dispersed it through other products - Retina displays, Siri, Touch ID - and plenty of analysts have made the obvious logical leap of assuming that 3D Touch will migrate to iPad at some point. Ming-Chi Kuo is the most authoritative voice to doubt this, but bear in mind that we're still in the realm of speculation - Kuo doesn't claim to have any inside source on these plans.
In fact, it could be argued that 3D Touch has its true origins on the Apple Watch, in the slightly different (or just differently branded) form of Force Touch. When it was first rumoured that this feature would move to iPhone, we were initially doubtful, for the simple reason that there's less need for multiple input methods on larger screens. The Apple Watch's display is cramped and doesn't have room for lots of icons, which makes a force-press a handy additional tool; the iPhone's screen is big enough for a user-friendly touch interface. Well, we were wrong about that, but if the iPhone didn't especially need 3D Touch, it could be argued that the iPad line-up needs it even less.

iPad Air 3 specs rumours: Screen resolution
Back in 2014, we wondered if the iPad Air 2 might get a screen upgrade from the Air 1, possibly gaining the Retina HD designation given to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. But its display is largely the same, with the same resolution and size. (One screen modification Apple did talk about was an anti-reflective coating: a nice - if unglamorous - upgrade.) And this idea has been floated again this year.
Back in September 2015 the Chinese-language site MyDrivers (link to translation) made some grand claims about the iPad Air 3's specifications. Most eye-catching among these is the unexpected prediction that Apple will increase the resolution and therefore pixel density of the screen on its next mid-size iPad.
MyDrivers reckons the Air 3 will get a bump up to 401 pixels per inch (matching the iPhone 6s Plus), which translates on a 9.7-inch screen into a resolution of 3112x2334. (This compares to 2048x1536 at 264ppi on both the Air 1 and Air 2.) We confirmed this figure using the handy PixelDensityCalculator website.
Pixel density is a measure of how tightly pixels are packed on a screen, and increasing it so much would result in an appreciably sharper screen - even though Apple used to maintain that 264ppi was more than enough on devices of this form factor.
Moving up to 401ppi on the Air 3 would be a major step forward for Apple, which has previously applied its Retina marketing label to 9.7-inch tablets rated at 264ppi on the basis that they are held further away from the eye than smartphones or even mini tablets (the Retina-rated mini 2 and mini 4 both have a pixel density of 326ppi, matching the non-Plus iPhones).
There is a simple reason why we don't think this is likely to happen. As well as smashing past the pixel density of half of Apple's smartphones, including the just-released and Retina HD-rated iPhone 6s (326ppi), all of which would be held far closer to the face than the iPad Air 3, it would also show up the iPad Pro, which has a pixel density of 264ppi. And the iPad Pro is a very expensive top-end device that is clearly positioned as Apple's flagship tablet. It's hard to imagine anyone happily paying top dollar for a 264ppi Pro when there's a 401ppi Air 3 for, presumably, about £200 less.
Oh, and we dread to think what such a large bump in resolution would do to battery life. The iPhone 6 Plus got round that because its larger size allowed it to include a bigger battery, but we're hearing that the Air 3 will be thinner than the Air 2.
iPad Air 3 specs rumours: Camera
When it unveiled the iPad Air 2, Apple upped the megapixel count on the iPad Air 1's rear-facing (iSight) camera, from 5Mp to 8Mp. The iPad Air 2 also gained new camera features: burst mode, panoramas (up to 43Mp), slo-mo, timer mode and time-lapse.
The front-facing (FaceTime HD) camera retained the same (1.2Mp) rating, but Apple said it had improved the sensor and made the pixels bigger for better low-light performance.
Cult of Mac, quoting Latinos Post, has predicted that the cameras on the iPad Air 3 will be specced at 8 megapixels (rear-facing iSight camera) and 2.1Mp (front-facing FaceTime camera). That's a slightly odd pair of specs, given that both iPad Air 2 and iPad Pro are rated at 8Mp/1.2Mp - does Apple really want to spec an Air higher than the mega-costly flagship iPad Pro? Then again, we've always felt that the FaceTime camera is more important for an iPad Air than the iSight camera, which most people use quite rarely, so making an upgrade there might be a good idea.
The typographical similarity between 1.2Mp and 2.1Mp makes it possible, of course, that somewhere along the line an error has crept in, and that the iPad Air 3 will actually have the same camera setup as the Pro.
iPad Air 3 specs rumours: Processor and speed
The iPad Air 2 got a new processor chip, the A8X - a souped-up version of the iPhone 6's A8. This has three billion transistors and offers (Apple says) 40 percent faster performance than the iPad Air 1's A7 chip in most apps and up to 2.5x graphics performance.
Offering a historical perspective (if four years counts as history), Apple pointed out that the iPad Air 2 is capable of up to 12 times faster processing than the iPad 1 (the first-gen iPad, that is, not the iPad Air 1!), and a staggering 180 times faster graphics.

It would be a big shock if Apple didn't upgrade the processor again when it launches the iPad Air 3, and it doesn't take a genius to predict that the iPad Air 3's chip will be an A9 or an A9X, and very speedy indeed. Given the near-overkill of the iPad Air 2's power, mind you, it might make sense for Apple to focus more on power efficiency than on sheer processing welly, and try to improve battery life.
This idea is backed up by the focus on streamlining and power-efficiency that we see in iOS 9, which is said to increase an iPhone 6's battery life by an hour on average. iPad battery life tends to be less of a hot issue than iPhone battery life, granted, but it's clear that Apple is taking power-efficiency seriously at last.
One other thought based on the iOS 9 announcements: new multitasking capabilities are likely to be extremely demanding on processor power (the iPad Air 2 is the only device capable of the most advanced multitasking feature in iOS 9, Split View) so a powerful chip wouldn't be wasted in the iPad Air 3.
iPad Air 3 release date rumours: iPad Air 3 UK price
How much will the iPad Air 3 cost in the UK?
Most likely it will cost pretty much what the iPad Air 2 cost when it launched. The iPad Air 2's UK price starts at £399 for the 16GB model in Wi-Fi only, moving up to £479 for 64GB Wi-Fi (as with the recent iPhones, Apple removed the popular 32GB storage option) and £559 for 128GB Wi-Fi. The 3G/cellular models cost £100 more at each configuration: £499 for the 16GB model, moving up to £579 for 64GB and £659 for 128GB.
With the iPad Air 3 filling in these price points, the iPad Air 2 will drop in price, most likely by around £80. The iPad Air 1 could get yet another price cut and remain on sale - much as Apple currently sells three versions of the iPad mini - but it's more likely to be discontinued. Apple usually tries to keep its range simple, and the main reason we can see for it keeping the iPad mini 1 around is that the iPad mini 2 and 3 are so similar.
iPad Air 3 rumours: Leaked images and videos
Update, 2 February 2016: This is a new section, because we've finally got some leaked images to talk about. Here's our first glimpse (sort of) of the iPad Air 3:
The image comes courtesy of Engadget, which received the leak from what it calls "our reliable source" without offering further description. And clearly it's a schematic or drawing of the iPad Air 3's design and general layout rather than a photo, so it's entirely possible that there will be changes to the design between now and the final release. (It's also possible that, despite Engadget's assurances, this isn't genuine.)
There are two main revelations to be drawn from the image, and both relate to features that are apparently migrating from the iPad Pro. The iPad Air 3 seems to have gained the Smart Connector on its lefthand edge (or righthand edge when viewed from the back, as above), which will enable users to connect a Smart Keyboard Cover - one in a smaller size than the current model, of course. And it's also been given the Pro's improved audio setup: four speakers.
More photos and videos, as and when we hear about them.
iPad Air 3 features wish list
So much for the rumours concerning the iPad Air 3's design changes, specs and new features. But what new features would we add to the device if we were in Jony Ive's shoes?
Here's our iPad Air 3 feature wish list. Some are brand-new wishes: perhaps ideas triggered by issues with Apple's latest line of iPads. Others are features we've been asking for since before the iPad Air 2 but weren't included in that device.
Let us know what features you want to see in the iPad Air 3 in the comments, or let us know on Twitter.
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Larger screen
You can never be too rich, or too thin, or have too much screen space.
In fact, there would be plenty of negatives attached to increasing the iPad Air 2's screen size from its current 9.7in diagonal: mainly increasing the bulk of the device (and having to incorporate a bigger and heavier battery to power the screen for as long), thereby reducing its fantastic portability. But a bigger screen would make the iPad Air more adaptable as a work device, and more immersive for entertainment, so who cares about practicalities?
In fact, since we wrote this wishlist, Apple has unveiled an iPad with a bigger screen; it just isn't called the iPad Air 3. Go and read our iPad Pro review for more on that one. We think the iPad Air line will continue to be based around a 9.7in screen.
Chances of happening (on the Air line at any rate): low
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Faster processor
This too is an obvious one, and something that has happened in essentially every iOS device update: a new, faster processor chip. But is it actually something to be wishing for?
The iPad Air 2 is fast enough to run every current app with ease, and on most apps you won't notice any different in performance between it and the iPad Air 1 (iPad Air 1 vs iPad Air 2 comparison). The iPad Air is effectively faster than it needs to be, and apps are trying their best to catch up.
The iPad Air 3 (or iPad 7) doesn't need to be any faster. It'll probably get a new chip, and there's a good chance it'll be a bit faster, but maybe Apple will go for greater power-efficiency instead?
Yeah, who are we kidding? You've got to be able to boast about processing speeds at the launch announcement.
Chances of happening: nailed on
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Improved camera (and the True Tone LED flash from the iPhone 5s)
The last of our recurring requests that crop up every time. Of course an improved camera would be nice, but we wouldn't cite it as an essential, since the iPad is used less for its camera than Apple's smartphones (less, although tablet camera use is growing all the time), and it's got pretty good anyway. A flash - such as the True Tone LED model in the iPhone 5s - wouldn't hurt, but only if it doesn't affect the price tag or portability too much. A smartphone needs a great camera; a tablet doesn't.
Chances of happening: mid to low
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Face recognition
Ah, something more interesting! What if the iPad Air 3 uses facial recognition to unlock the device?
Face-recognition is already available in the Camera app, but that's facial recognition only in the sense of recognising that something is a face, rather than recognising which one it is - which makes this one a long shot. It does also seem a bit unnecessary, given that Apple has the Touch ID technology, and so does the iPad Air 2. If it wants to do convenient, biometric authentication it can use that.
Chances of happening: low
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Full Apple Pay
This one is slightly complicated.
The iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 gained Touch ID fingerprint scanners - one of the components required to use the new Apple Pay online/instore payment service, which allows you to pay for things in shops by scanning your iPhone 6 or 6 Plus and touching the fingerprint scanner. And indeed both models can use Apple Pay in the US. (Apple Pay hasn't launched in the UK at time of writing, but it will make its UK launch in July.)
But they get only a limited, partial version of Apple Pay: one that doesn't work in shops. Instead they use the online and app-based versions of Apple Pay, which use Touch ID but don't require the NFC wireless antenna component used when scanning the iPhone 6 on an instore receiver.
A further complication is the discovery of NFC antennae in both devices when they were disassembled; perhaps these could be activated in future and allow for full Apple Pay. Or perhaps they are intended for some other purpose.
Either way, we'd like to at least have the option of instore Apple Pay with the next generation of iPads. Admittedly the average customer is a lot less likely to whip out a full-size iPad at the till, but we thought something similar about iPad photography.
Chances of happening: medium
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Live multitasking
"The fact that you cannot use multiple applications at the same time is a little annoying," said Product Reviews when discussing potential new features for the iPad Air 2, "and it would definitely be a great feature if Apple could add it in. For example you could update your Twitter feed in a sidebar whilst watching a video or check your emails whilst reading an article."
We didn't get it in the iPad Air 2, and it still makes sense for the iPad Air 3, although you'd probably need a bigger screen to be able to use this practically. And maybe it's more of an iOS 9 thing.
Even as a software update it seems very radical indeed for something that (I think) is a niche requirement. How many people check their emails while continuing to read an article or watch a video?
Chances of happening: low
UPDATE: Scratch that. Chances of happening: definite. Multitasking capabilities have been announced for iOS 9:
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Improved stylus support
"I'd like to see more attention paid to the display sensor technology that allows for the next generation of fine tip electronic styluses to be used more effectively and accurately," wrote MacObserver last year. They didn't get their own way with the iPad Air 2, so presumably are still hoping.
This sounds like a nice option, so it's most likely a question of priorities and compromises. And aside from Apple's consistent commitment to touch input in iOS, doesn't this sound like something Samsung would champion?
Chances of happening: low
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Subwoofer and other audio/speaker improvements
The iPad's audio output could be improved; this is certainly true. (The iPad Air 2 has stereo speaker units, but they are so close together that their output is effectively mono.) Yet there are limits on the richness of the audio a slim and portable unit can produce; I suspect that the average iPad owner would rather buy a separate wireless speaker than add any noticeable weight to the iPad Air's chassis.
A touch more bass output would substantially improve the iPad as a games unit, mind you, and it would be great for film fans.
Chances of happening: mid to low
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Increase the storage baseline
"iPads tend to accumulate a lot of stuff," pointed out MacObserver. "Apps, movies and music that make a 16GB iPad an anachronism. Here's hoping..."
In fact, Apple phased out the popular 32GB model instead, leaving the iPad Air 2 (and the iPad mini 3 and iPhone 6 handsets) with an oddly lopsided line-up of 16GB, 64GB and 128GB.
Will Apple phase out the 16GB iPad? It's going to happen at some point - remember the 8GB iPad? - but maybe not quite yet. Plenty of users store work documents and photos in the cloud, rarely game and use a small number of lightweight apps.
Chances of happening: low (for now)
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Memory card slot
We'll say right away: this would be nice in some respects but is highly unlikely.
Apple's philosophy embraces the closed box: the complete product experience bought ready-to-use and held apart from user tinkering and upgrades. Without mentioning that this would encourage buyers to go for the lower-capacity iPads and fill the shortfall with removable memory. And it would ruin the iPad's clean lines.
Chances of happening: no way
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Bluetooth mouse support
It's been argued that touch is less accurate than mouse (or similar) input, and that Apple's more work-oriented users would enjoy being able to use wireless mice with their iPad Air 3. If we were talking about the Mac OS X-running iPad Pro that some have discussed, this would be a no-brainer, but this would call for a major rethink of how iOS works, and we don't think that's likely.
Chances of appearing: low
iPad Air 3 feature wish list: Wireless charging
At the moment wireless charging is big let-down, offering only minor convenience rather than the quantum leap it appears to promise. The Air Voltage Qi Chargers are an example of a (comparatively) recent take on the concept: you buy a case for your device, and a separate charging mat. Simply laying the cased iPhone on the mat starts up the charging process - but it has to touch the mat, and the mat itself has to be plugged in.
If you could increase the range of the charge transmission so that, for example, you just need to be sitting with a couple of feet of the charger for the device in your pocket to start charging - then we'd be talking. Still, if Apple incorporated the technology in the chassis of the iPad so that you don't have to bother with a particular case then it would a bit more appealing.
Chances of appearing: low
Read page 2 for the rumours and predictions we collected in advance of the iPad Air 2's press event. See for yourself how much we (and the rest of the industry) got right, and how much we got wrong!

But investigative genius Stephanie McCrummen could see a virtual Klan hood on Perry's head. "As recently as this summer, the slab-like rock -- lying flat, the name still faintly visible beneath a coat of white paint -- remained by the gated entrance to the camp."
Near the end, she underlined it again: "In the photos, it was to the left of the gate. It was laid down flat. The exposed face was brushed clean of dirt. White paint, dried drippings visible, covered a word across the surface. An N and two G's were faintly visible."
Three thousand words on this.
Apparently, investigative reporting at the Post means staring at old rocks under paint (with a microscope?) to discern almost invisible letters and suggesting this should ruin a presidential campaign. It resembles the Post feverishly fumbling through foreign-language dictionaries trying to find a racially defamatory definition for "macaca" to torpedo Sen. George Allen's re-election in 2006.
The fact that these Republicans are racist is never established. Two days after the rock "scoop," a Post front-page article by Amy Gardner found Perry's record on race was "complicated"... by the facts. Yes, Perry "appointed the first African-American to the state Supreme Court and later made him chief justice" and oh, yes, "One chief of staff and two of his general counsels have been African-American." But many "minority legislators (read: Democrats) say Perry has a long history -- dating to his first race for statewide office more than 20 years ago -- of engaging in what they see as racially tinged tactics and rhetoric to gain political advantage."
What kind of offensive tactics? Guess what's listed first: "Black lawmakers have been particularly troubled by Perry's recent embrace of the Tea Party movement."
By contrast, does anyone recall The Washington Post being the first investigative journalism outfit to reveal the racist, anti-American and anti-Semitic rants of Rev. Jeremiah Wright in 2007? Of course not. That fastest-turtle award would go to ABC's Brian Ross on March 13, 2008. By that late date, after all the investigators had finished their naps, 42 states and the District of Columbia had already voted for a nominee.

At one point, you might have called David Wilder a renaissance man. In addition to owning six homes and "Phoenix's top gay bar," he was also the White Sox senior director of player personnel, in charge of Latin American scouting. How did he do it? Very corruptly, apparently.
The White Sox fired Wilder, who reportedly also lost $570,000 on his gay club venture, after an MLB investigation into allegations he was pocketing signing bonus money meant for his prospects. At least five cases have surfaced so far, and MLB sources said Wilder skimmed $200,000 from those contracts. Yikes. And you thought when they finally solved all this steroid business, all the scandals would just go away?
The Yankees and the Red Sox have also fired scouts implicated in this investigation, but since the CHICAGO TRIBUNE is the only rag to get off their asses and look into this, we have the most details from the White Sox camp.
One of those players who did sign for a large sum was Rafael Reyes, a 16-year-old outfielder who got a $525,000 bonus from the White Sox in 2007. Former White Sox scout Victor Mateo, who was fired along with Wilder and fellow scout Domingo Toribio, has told ESPN that Reyes' uncle gave him $50,000 as a gift after the signing.
Mateo told ESPN he passed $45,000 of that on to Wilder.
Sadly this doesn't seem to be isolated. As one source said, "It's systemic within baseball." And why not? The average bonus for a Dominican prospect has jumped from $15,000 to $110,000 in the last ten years.
So you've got cases like this, where Wilder allegedly either cut deals with the players to kick back some of their bonus, or misled the White Sox about the amount of money offered to the player, and pocketing the difference.
"Baseball is a private enterprise. As with any private enterprise, there are going to be thieves and whores," [Dominican Baseball Commissioner Porfirio] Veras said. "But there has been an indifferent attitude toward this. And the ones who always pay are the athletes."

NEW YORK — The stock market Thursday held close to its all-time high amid optimism that the economy is set to strengthen.
Stocks are on course for their best weekly gain in seven weeks after investors got more encouraging news on the economy. A survey showed that U.S. service firms increased their business more quickly last month as new orders rose. Separate reports earlier in the week had shown manufacturing strengthening, hiring picking up, and sales of cars and trucks rising.
The news came ahead of the government's monthly jobs report, which will be published Friday. Investors expect to see a strong pickup in hiring. Economists are forecasting that the U.S. economy added 200,000 jobs in March, according to FactSet. That would be the biggest gain in hiring since November.
"If you have a decent economy, a modestly growing economy, that's supportive of corporate earnings, and stocks can continue to benefit from that," said John Fox, director of research at Fenimore Asset Management.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 2.13 points, or 0.1 percent, to 1,888.77. The index closed at an all-time high of 1,890 a day earlier after rising for four straight days. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 0.45 point, or less than 0.1 percent, to 16,572.55. The Nasdaq composite fell 38.72 points, or 0.9 percent, to 4,237.74.
Stocks started the day higher after getting a lift from a report on the U.S. service sector. By midmorning, investors seemed unwilling to place big bets on the market before Friday's key jobs report.
"Going into the employment report, a lot of people aren't anxious to open new positions," said J.J. Kinahan, chief strategist with TD Ameritrade. "They don't want to be taken by surprise."
