Physware Launches with $2.5M Series A Financing
Leading Venture Capital Firms Support Electronic Design Automation (EDA) Technology That Delivers Unprecedented Capacity and Speed While Maintaining Accurate Physics
BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Physware, Inc., a provider of high-speed 3D field solutions for the high-frequency package and board markets, today announced that Madrona Venture Group and WRF Capital have collectively invested $2.5 million in venture funding. This funding will enable Physware (www.physware.com) to accelerate product development and global expansion.
"Physware's solution offers orders of magnitude improvement in speed without sacrificing accuracy. We use the term 'disruptive technology' too much in the venture business. This really is disruptive technology."
Founded in June 2006 by Dr. Vikram Jandhyala, Physware develops technology that significantly enhances advanced package and board-level electrical modeling and design. The company's patent-pending, physics-aware technology enables improved productivity and efficiency at every step of the design cycle, significantly reducing time to market.
"This funding represents a tremendous vote of confidence in Physware's revolutionary technology, which originated at the Applied Computational Engineering (ACE) lab at the University of Washington (UW)," said Professor Jandhyala. "Madrona Venture Group and WRF Capital have supported multiple successful technology companies originating from the UW, and we are delighted to have them as part of our team."
"What excited us most about Physware is that its technology is not just a little bit better, a little bit faster," said Greg Gottesman, Managing Director of Madrona. "Physware's solution offers orders of magnitude improvement in speed without sacrificing accuracy. We use the term 'disruptive technology' too much in the venture business. This really is disruptive technology."
Gottesman and fellow Madrona Managing Director Tom Alberg sit on the board with Physware chairman and CEO Dr. Jandhyala and Physware president and COO, Bala Vishwanath.
"We are excited to work with this team," said Alberg. "Vikram is that rare combination of technical genius and business leader, and Bala brings a solid history of execution in the EDA space. They've also assembled an incredible group of developers who have built a product that we think will change the EDA market landscape."

Solo Sara Bareilles makes big impression in small room
The voice of Sara Bareilles could fill, and has filled, venues larger than the Humphrey Scottish Rite Masonic Center Auditorium, which sold out its 435-seat capacity when she stopped there Friday night.
Bareilles was in the midst of her first-ever solo tour and evidently wanted the intimacy of a smaller venue - combined, perhaps, with the assurance that if she failed, she would do so in front of a smaller crowd. »Read Full Article(2)

Started this a while ago, finally got round to finishing it. Not too happy with the background though; I wanted to use a photo of foliage with effects/filters applied but I couldn't get it right, so I ended up using brushes instead. Left the sketch lines in on purpose; after toggling the layer on-off, I felt it gave a certain feel to it which I liked. I used a stock photo to reference (@syaccas_stock on dA) the pose and a google image search to reference the clothes.

4 new auto parts stores coming
O'Reilly expands into county
Published: Tuesday, May 1, 2012 at 1:56 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 1, 2012 at 1:56 p.m.
National auto parts retailer O'Reilly Auto Parts will open four new stores in the Ocala area in the coming months, including construction of a new building in Belleview.
The life of O'Reilly
• Company started in Springfield, Mo. in 1957.
• Among the nation's largest specialty retailers of automotive aftermarket parts, tools, supplies, equipment and accessories
• Currently operates in 39 states, including Florida
• More than 3,800 stores and 23 distribution centers
• Expects to open 180 new locations in 2012
• 2011 sales: $5.8 billion
• Publicly traded (NASDAQ: ORLY)
• On the web: corporate.oreillyauto.com
"We've been hammered in this recession and here we have a company that brought four locations in Marion County and will bring at least 60 jobs to our workforce, and that's what we need is more jobs," said Nolan Galloway, the Ocala-based real estate agent who helped the company locate three of the four properties.
The first store scheduled to open will be in the Ocala Shopping Center, 1811 E. Silver Springs Blvd., said Mark Merz, a spokesman for Springfield, Mo.-based O'Reilly.
It will occupy the 10,185-square-foot location that once housed Hollywood Video.
"That store is scheduled to open in the next couple of months, with two others set for within the next six months," he said.
The other two Ocala locations include the former home of several nightclubs, most recently the Palacio Latino and originally the Painted Horse Saloon, 2677 NW 10th St.; and the site of a former Blockbuster Video store, 2401 SW State Road 200.
The properties are approximately between 8,000 and 7,000 square feet respectively.
The fourth location, in Belleview, will take longer because the company purchased a vacant lot and will build at 5632 SE Abshier Blvd.
Merz said the company, which has more than 3,800 stores in 39 states, looks at a number of factors before it opens new stores. Among them: the number of registered cars in the area, population density and competition.
Ocala passed those analyses and fit the company's expansion plans. O'Reilly's plans to open 180 new stores by the end of 2012, Merz said.
The publicly traded company started as O'Reilly Automotive in 1957 and went public in 1993. It expanded by building new stores and through merging or buying other stores and regional chains. The company reported $5.8 billion in sales in 2011.
The company sells auto parts to both retail and wholesale customers.
"We like to have good, prominent storefronts, but we also look for a location that can accommodate the number of trucks that go out everyday to service our wholesale customers," Merz said. "We sure look forward to getting these stores open and partnering with the community."

Among the Islands: Adventures in the Pacific
Text Publishing Company, Jul 25, 2012 - Biography & Autobiography - 288 pages
Tim Flannery takes us on an enthralling journey through some of the most diverse and spectacular environments on Earth.
Twenty-five years ago, as a young curator of mammals from the Australian Museum in Sydney, he set out to research the fauna of the Pacific Islands. Starting with a survey of one of the most inaccessible islands in Melanesia - Woodlark, in the Trobriands Group - that young scientist found himself ghost-whispering, snake wrestling, Quadoi hunting and plunged waist-deep into a sludge of maggot-infested faeces in search of a small bat that turned out not to be earth-shatteringly interesting. He includes accounts of discovering, naming and sometimes eating new mammal species; being thwarted or aided by local customs; and historic scientific expeditions.
Among the Islands is the third book in a loose trilogy of Flannery's adventures, following on from the bestselling Throwim Way Leg (1998) and Country (2004).
Tim Flannery has written over a dozen books, including Here on Earth; the award-winning bestsellers The Future Eaters, The Eternal Frontier and The Weather Makers; and his accounts of adventures in Papua New Guinea and Australia, Throwim Way Leg and Country. Tim was the 2007 Australian of the Year.
'Flannery's recollection is part adventure romp and part political history but above all a love letter to nature and science...' Age
'A rollicking adventure story that will entertain amateur zoologists young and old. By populating the narrative with interesting characters as well as fascinating creatures and spectacular environments, Flannery also keeps the story interesting for those without a deep interest in science.' **** (Four-star review) Australian Bookseller and Publisher
'Flannery's own labours in exploring these exotic islands are recalled with the zest and enjoyment that attach to difficult and arduous circumstances overcome.' Canberra Times
'Writing in a witty, anecdotal, confessional style, Tim Flannery takes us with him on his search for elusive critters in exotic places, and along the way we learn a lot about nature, humankind's devastating arrogance, the politics of the Pacific and, most surprisingly, ourselves. Flannery is about as close as you can get to a living national treasure...' Courier Mail
'There is an 18th or 19th century explorer inside Tim Flannery, trying to get out...in this rather ripping yarn, which combines a passion for science with a zeal for adventure...Like any decent colonial explorer Flannery (whom David Attenborough has compared to David Livingstone, no less) and his colleagues suffered privations and hardships along the way, although the arduous conditions were always rewarded with the wonders of the natural world, and few are better qualified to write about that.' Weekend Australian
Among the Islands is not a polemic about environmental destruction nor a dissertation on the discovery of hitherto unknown species. It is above all an easily read and often surprisingly funny recounting of Flannery's early adventures. However it also provides the reader with insights into how Flannery developed the logic behind the theories he espoused in The Future Eaters and particularly The Weather Makers.' Gippsland Times
'Flannery is a gifted writer, able to bring the musty backrooms of museums to life. It will be a hardened reader who can finish the book and escape without a romantic appreciation for island life and the mysterious beauty of evolution.' Dominion Post Weekend Press (NZ)
'A ripping yarn.' Sunday Tasmanian
'Flannery is a crackerjack storyteller as well as a scientist.' Publishers Weekly

SDDC names 2011 NCO, Soldier of the Year
May 31, 2011
By By Mark Diamond, Hq. SDDC Public Affairs
Story Highlights
- Sgt. Douglas McBroom of the 597th Transportation Brigade named SDDC NCO of the Year.
- Spc. Francisco Espino of the 597th Transportation Brigade named SDDC Soldier of the Year.
Related Links
SCOTT AIR FORCE BASE, Ill. -- Sgt. Douglas McBroom was named the 2011 Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command NCO of the Year and Private 1st Class Francisco Espino captured SDDC Soldier of the Year honors during a ceremony May 27 at Joint Base Langley-Eustis, Va.
McBroom and Espino -- both assigned to the 690th Rapid Port Opening Element, 597th Transportation Brigade -- earned their titles following the week-long SDDC Best Warrior competition May 23-27 at JB Langley-Eustis and Fort A.P. Hill, Va.
During the competition, six SDDC Soldiers representing four of the command's five brigades competed in a variety of tasks, including combatives (hand-to-hand combat); news media training; an NCO and Soldier of the Year review board; the Army physical fitness test; a 6-mile ruck march; weapons qualifications; and a variety of battle drills that tested each competitor's knowledge of general Soldier skill areas.
McBroom and Espino will go on to compete at the upcoming Army Materiel Command Best Warrior competition, and the winners from that event will compete for top honors during the U.S. Army competition later this year.
During the SDDC Best Warrior awards ceremony May 27, SDDC Command Sgt. Maj. James Riddick congratulated each of the SDDC Best Warrior competitors and challenged the winners to prepare for the next level of competition.
"The Soldiers who win at the next level are the Soldiers who will sacrifice the most," said Riddick.
He told the two top Soldiers they should enjoy their win now, but after the Memorial Day weekend, it's time for them to get to work and prepare for the upcoming AMC competition.
"I expect you to go out there and hone your skills," added SDDC's top enlisted leader. "I know you have the ability to win [at the next level], but I want you to know it's going to require sacrifice. You're going to have to study more; you're going to have to workout more; you're going to have to go to the [weapons] range more."
With that, Riddick noted the highlights of each competitor and announced the two top Soldiers.
The Soldiers selected to compete for the SDDC Best Warrior competition mastered a series of benchmarks throughout the year and were handpicked to represent their brigades in the SDDC competition.
In addition to McBroom and Espino, the cast of SDDC Best Warrior competitors included: Sgt. 1st Class Elizabeth Wister, 598th Trans. Bde.; Staff Sgt. Lonika Harris, 599th Trans. Bde.; Sgt. Richard Gonzalez, 595th Trans. Bde.; and Spc. Anthony Macchio, 595th Trans. Bde.
Each competitor received 597th Trans. Bde. and SDDC command team coins, Army and Air Force Exchange Service movie passes, an SDDC "One Mind, One Heart, One Purpose" value card, and a certificate of recognition. Additionally, the SDDC NCO and Soldier of the Year each received a $500 savings bond; an SDDC plaque; a $100 gift card, t-shirt, lapel pin, military service assistance team coin, music Internet download card, and sports bag from GEICO; and a replica musket from Pioneer Services.

Jennifer Garner in Genetic Denim
Jennifer Garner is in a hurry! She was seen sprinting down a friends driveway after spending some time visiting with friends. I wonder if she was trying to avoid being photographed? Now that Violet has glasses, she looks just like a mini Jennifer, especially in these photos!
Normally I'm a huge fan of stripes but after seeing these photos, her shirt looks like she should be in a Where's Waldo book! I think thinner stripes are the way to go (or at least not in red!) Jennifer paired her striped shirt with a pair of distressed Genetic Denim jeans. This is the same pair we saw her in a few days ago. You can buy Genetic Denim jeans at Singer22.com.
Jennifer Garner in Genetic Denim
Chatting away on her cell phone, Jennifer Garner was seen outside Louise's Trattoria in Santa Monica, CA. Jennifer and her family were recently vacationing in Hawaii and little Violet got glasses! Looks like she's been keeping busy!
Although I'm not typically a fan of Jennifer's style, I really like these Genetic Denim jeans that she's wearing. She's been spotted wearing the brand before. I think that these could be really cute if she styled them differently and lost those horrid boots! You can buy Genetic Denim online at Singer22.com.

First let's revisit the 2009 DenimBlog Top Ten Diva's here. We are doing the same scoring system as we did last year: counting how many blog posts each celeb had and adding how many times they wore different brands so you can compare the scores from this year to last year as well!
The 2009 list was as follows:
1) Ashley Tisdale score 62
2) Lindsay Lohan score 59
3) Jessica Alba score 49
4) Rihanna score 36
5) Vanessa Hudgens score 34
6) Jennifer Garner score 34
7) Ciara score 32
8′) Megan Fox score 31
9) Heidi Montag score 30
10) Audrina Patridge score 30
This year's list starts off at…
#10) with Ashlee Simpson score 46
Ashlee's style is so retro-ish and almost hippie sometimes. From her high-waisted jeans all the way to showing off her long gams in short-shorts, I really adore how far she has came in our denim world! I hope she broadens her denim collection with some more brands in 2011.
#9) Lindsay Lohan score 51
Lindsay's score is only slightly lower than last year's but she has dropped from #2 to #9 on our list. She was just simply not out and about shopping so much this past year, probably due to her personal issues. We hope she gets those issues sorted and that she can get back to topping our list with her great choice in denim because I certainly miss all that Balmain!
#8) Vanessa Hudgens score 54
Vanessa was #5 on our list last year and I'm sure glad she is back on our list this year. She has such a great sense of style and she wears a lot of different up and coming brands as well. She is quite simply just lovely!
#7) Hilary Duff score 56
Honestly I was surprised that Hilary even made our list at all! She was blogged 37 times wearing 19 different brands!! Hilary is certainly one to start watching in 2011.
#6) Jennifer Garner score 59
Jennifer hits #6 on our list AGAIN this year. You all know how much I adore Jen as I think she is a great mother with a casual sense of denim style. She is on the go a lot so we get to blog her more than a few other celebs; she was actually spotted in 12 different brands this year too.
#5) Kim Kardashian score 72
I'm sure most of you would have guessed Kim was going to be on this list! Kim is certainly a rising star in the celeb world and her denim choices put her as a rising star on our blog. If we went to a top 20 list, I would bet both her sisters would be on there too. I love Kim's unique style and her beautiful curvy body. I wish the paps would get some more shots of her backside in jeans though!
#4) Miley Cyrus score 76
Little Miley…well not so little anymore, she has certainly grown over the last year. She wasn't even on our list last year! Miley was blogged in 20 different brands so she has really widened her denim scope rather quickly as well. She has had some rather risque choices of outfits but it's great to see her try out some different things and learn along the way.
#3) Ashley Tisdale score 81
Last year's denim diva is still close to the top of our list, though she is #3 this year. Ashley is Lorna's favorite celeb in denim and I can see why. Ashley's style very much suits her age group and she is always one for fashion sense.
#2) Jessica Alba score 88
Jessica is my personal favorite denim diva for this year, though she is the runner-up. Jessica's great ensembles always have me clamoring for more. Jessica wore the most different brands of any of our celebs; it makes me think she doesn't do any laundry, she just buys all new clothes! I'm not complaining, I'm just jealous! Even though we have spotted Jessica in 24 different brands this year, she still is missing a few key brands that I would love to see her in. Diesel and True Religion. Maybe in 2011?
#1) Rachel Bilson score 91
Rachel was blogged 73 times in 18 different brands, so she becomes the 2010 DenimBlog Denim Diva! Rachel really has fairly simple, elegant style and she really feels like the girl next door who has great fashion sense. It's hard to believe that she never was even on our list last year but now she is #1 this year! Congrats to Rachel!

These beautiful photos of the sky were created by stacking images of the same scene together using a time-lapse method. Photographer Matt Molloy snapped a range of scenes including sunsets and bright skies in at midday.
Mr Molloy, of Ontario, Canada, said: 'Sunsets seem to work well, as the lighting constantly gets darker. A midday time-lapse can get messy, but they can be fun too.' He added: 'I'm a big fan of experimenting. Much like this process, you never know what you're going to get.'

Queen's University Belfast researchers synthesize "porous liquid"; applications in more efficient chemical processes
November 12, 2015
Scientists at Queen's University Belfast, Northern Ireland, UK, have synthesized a porous liquid with the potential for application in a wide range of new, more efficient and greener chemical processes including carbon capture.
The researchers in the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at Queen's, along with colleagues at the University of Liverpool, UK, and other international partners, found that the new liquid can dissolve unusually large amounts of gas, which are absorbed into "holes" in the liquid. The results of their research are published in the journal Nature.
Shell launches commercial operation of Quest carbon capture and storage in Alberta oil sands
November 08, 2015
Shell marked the official opening of the Quest carbon capture and storage (CCS) project in Alberta, Canada, and the start of commercial operations there. Quest is designed to capture and safely store more than one million tonnes of CO2 each year—equal to the emissions from about 250,000 cars. Quest was made possible through strong collaboration between the public and private sectors aimed at advancing CCS globally.
Using activated amine (ADIP-X), Quest will capture one-third of the CO2 emissions from Shell's Scotford Upgrader, which turns oil sands bitumen into synthetic crude that can be refined into fuel and other products. The CO2 is a byproduct of the production of hydrogen, which is used to upgrade the bitumen.
DOE awards ~$25M to 8 projects for CO2 capture and compression; $15M for novel Direct Fuel Cell system
September 02, 2015
The US Department of Energy's (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has selected eight projects to receive almost $25 million in funding to construct small- and large-scale pilots for reducing the cost of CO2 capture and compression through DOE's Carbon Capture Program. More than half of the funding ($15 million) will go to FuelCell Energy for a pilot scale project using one of the company's Direct Fuel Cells for carbon capture and compression.
The DOE's Carbon Capture Program consists of two core research technology areas, post-combustion capture and pre-combustion capture, and also supports related CO2 compression efforts. Current research and development efforts are advancing technologies that could provide step-change reductions in both cost and energy penalty compared to currently available technologies.
New diamine-appended MOFs can capture CO2 for half or less of the energy cost of current materials
March 12, 2015
UC Berkeley chemists have developed a new material that can efficiently capture CO2 and then release it at lower temperatures than current carbon-capture materials, potentially cutting by half or more the energy currently consumed in the process.
The material, a metal-organic framework (MOF) modified with nitrogen compounds called diamines, can be tuned to remove carbon dioxide from the room-temperature air of a submarine, for example, or the 100-degree (Fahrenheit) flue gases from a power plant. A paper elucidating the mechanism of what the researchers are calling "phase-change" adsorbents is published in the journal Nature.

Polymer microcapsules with liquid carbonate cores and silicone shells offer a new approach to carbon capture
February 09, 2015
A multi-institution team of researchers has developed a novel class of materials that enable a safer, cheaper, and more energy-efficient process for removing greenhouse gas from power plant emissions. The approach, described in a paper in the journal Nature Communications, could be an important advance in carbon capture and sequestration (CCS).
The team, led by scientists from Harvard University and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, employed a microfluidic assembly technique to produce microcapsules that contain liquid sorbents encased in highly permeable polymer shells. They have significant performance advantages over the carbon-absorbing materials used in current CCS technology.

- + Szép tárgy, jó az Ios 7, király az ujjlenyomat-olvasó
- - Gyenge a vaku, bírhatná tovább az elem, az Ios 7 még nincs kész
The trajectory of the iPhone is, in most ways, the trajectory of Apple over the past decade. Insane ambition, untouchable dominance, the inevitable slowing of momentum. And now, reinvention, sort of. Mostly from iOS 7, partly from the iPhone 5S itself. But underneath it all, it's still just an iPhone. And that's still pretty good.
The smartphone race has reached a point where Apple can no longer pad its lead simply by staying entrenched with its existing product—competition has caught and in places passed it. And that, in turn, means the phone in your pocket will be evolving a little more rapidly than it has in the past. A new software design, fingerprint unlocking, broader motion sensing, even the continued evolution of Siri—these are the sorts of leaps forward that Apple is usually content to let others test out before giving its own refined take. The result is a mixed bag.
The iPhone 5S is literally just an iPhone 5, with a slightly different home button. It comes in gold now. If you're somehow unfamiliar with the iPhone 5, here is all you really need to know: It is impossibly light, the display is smaller and more narrow than most popular Android phones, and it is chamfered to high heaven.
Whatever else it is, the iPhone remains a gorgeous phone, one that's as satisfying to hold and use and look at as any piece of electronics has the capacity to be. It's thin, light, solid, regrettably scratch-prone, on the fragile side if not outright brittle, and all the other things you know iPhones to be. That's a little boring, but it also works.
And so Apple plays the hits. The screen is the same retina display you're used to. It's been outstripped in size and pixel density by other larger and more powerful phones, but you'd be hard pressed to point out any flaws. The size, weight, and general shape are all the same old Apple standards. We like them. They're not going anywhere. In fact, if you want to find change here, you're going to have to look inside.
TouchID, Apple's fingerprint scanning security system, just works. Remember how that feels? It's simple and convenient and never feels like an imposition. Every time I'm asked for the thumb ID, it feels like a shortcut. Oh, I'd have to input a whole damn password here, wouldn't I? It's almost like MagSafe, in that it takes a small not-really-an-inconvenience and makes it easier, better. Wet fingers—after just washing your hands and drying them on your pants, say—don't work so well, but we did find that eating chicken wings and having gross, orange fingers was just fine. So there's that.
There's another piece of hardware in the iPhone that hasn't been talked about nearly as much, but is maybe even more important than TouchID. The M7 processor is supposed to make your iPhone come alive. At the announcement event, Nike showed off a new app that would turn your iPhone into, basically, a Fuel Band you carry around in your pocket. The phone would pick up the fine movements of your body, but because that information would be routed through the M7 chip instead of the main processor, the effects on battery would be minimal.
That functionality, from Nike and anyone else using the M7, isn't in use yet. We don't know how well it will work or how accurate it will be, but that it wasn't ready for launch isn't the best sign. These are natural growing pains, but they fold into a larger trend of Apple just not getting things right the first time around. Siri, Apple Maps, and now whatever's going on here.
It's a shame that the battery-saving M7 hasn't really kicked in yet (or maybe a good thing, depending on how well it works), because the battery is crap. The 5S doesn't last as long as the Moto X or Galaxy S4, but the gap isn't huge. It's crap, mainly, because I think about battery every time I use it. With background updates off on non-essential apps, I'd get to around 5 or 6PM before the phone was flat dead on moderate use. A little longer on light use, and far, far shorter when I was screwing with it constantly (obviously). But that's not good enough. Sure, you can use a battery pack to top off throughout the day if traveling, or charge throughout the day at your desk (if you work at a desk, yuppie). But the primary feature of your phone should always be its ability to turn on, and that's an area the iPhone lags behind its major competitors, and is lapped, twice, by brutes like the Razr Maxx.
There's a new processor here, too, an A7 chip doesn't really bear mentioning. Yes, it's faster, in the way that processors tend to get faster from year to year. It's not a transformative feature, and the 64-bit jump isn't going to do you much good in the near future. You can read about some of the interesting things going on under the hood here, and down the road, the shift in course will prove crucial. But mostly, don't sweat it. The phone's fast. That's all you really need to know.
If the iPhone tracks the trajectory of Apple as a whole, the iPhone camera over the past few years has played that out in miniature. Beginning with the iPhone 4, the iPhone's camera has been the best, by reputation and often by reality. But over the past year, it's been caught and surpassed by competitors like the Lumia 1020 and the HTC One. It's still perfectly good—great, even—for a camera phone. But it hasn't been the best in a while.
Nuts and bolts, the camera is fast—especially if you're used to the longer shutter times of a smartphone like a Lumia with optical image stabilization—and takes sharp images. The tradeoff is that it doesn't do quite as well in low light. Its dual flash is a particular disappointment, since Apple played that up as a major improvement. It's not. It washes faces out like all the other LED flashes, and gets stomped by Nokia phones with Xenon flashes, like the Lumia 928 and 1020. Here's a small sample gallery of some shots from the phone. The colors are a little less saturated than we're used to seeing from an iPhone.
While the controls on the new app aren't as granular as some camera nerds would like, they're plenty good for the rest of us; the HDR setting ("high dynamic range" for shots with both bright and dark sections) being right at your fingertips is nice.
The "standout" new camera feature is probably the 120fps slow motion video setting, which is pretty cool actually, but mostly a fun novelty. It works by just shooting a video as you normally would, on the slow motion setting. Then you open the video and slide the bars around to pick which portion of the video is in slow motion. It works! Pretty well, actually. Maybe you'll use it at dumb college parties or recording your kids play sports. But will you really?
Here's the thing: This is a great smartphone camera. But it still exists within the paradigm of smartphone cameras taking very good throwaway pics—not the ones you want shot to last. The Lumia 1020's existance (I know the 808 PureView was out, but it wasn't viable for most people) changed that. The whole idea of how you use a camera in a phone is different now. Not being the very best isn't a crime—it's size constraints and less-than-superb processing here—but the next big jump has happened, and the iPhone isn't on board just yet.
For the first time since before the App Store, really, iOS has room to grow. Maybe it won't be as broad as Android or as lightweight as Windows Phone, but all the tools to make iOS as information-dense and functional as the other guys are here—it's just a matter of figuring out how to use them, in some cases. Still, despite the extreme makeover and new stuff bolted on, it's the iOS you remember.
iOS 7 still feels more welcoming than Android, which is alive and efficient but never really easy. But beyond the talk about the icons (dreadful in spots, but you stop noticing it—short praise but true) and flatness, the issues thing about the design that stands out after a week or so is the openness. That is, in place of traditional buttons, a lot of apps now just have some text. Done or Back, for example. The result is the whole OS feels less claustrophobic, but tapping buttons can be more hit and miss than you're used to, maybe because devs aren't used to enlarging the touch target for iOS. Small issue, but it's there.
Lots of features seem like they were barely thought through. Wasteful, stupid, but with room to turn into something truly good and useful. Let's take the new Notification Center as an example. The information organization doesn't make any sense. It displays the day of the week and the date in large type, and then underneath, the temperature and weather forecast, written out. This is not useful. Why would you need to know the day of the week so immediately? Why not have temperature and an illustration of the weather most prominent, or the time, or your most pressing upcoming event?
The whole Calendar widget is similarly idiotic. If you have a schedule slammed with meetings, events, lunches, and dinner plans, every day, hey this is great. But when you don't, the widget stays on your Notification screen, empty, just taking up space for no reason. And notifications themselves are split into All and Missed subcategories, which are inscrutable enough that I'm still not totally sure what the difference is.
These are part of a long list of small, frustrating things about the OS that will probably be sorted out eventually. But they're real enough for now, and raise two quick points. One, these are the misfit-toy problems that Android stared down for years, only without the broad customization offered by that platform. And two, for the first time in years, it's a little exciting seeing what the jailbreakers will come up with.
If they're taking requests, the keyboard would be a good start. It's insane to not have any form of Swype text entry in 2013. It doesn't matter what it costs. Spare no expense. If you need to pay Swype a billion dollars and every last Baby Gap t-shirt in Jony Ive's closet, by god, give it to them.
Siri, too, is still half-cooked. Apple's sometimes-silly attempts to humanize the "digital assistant" are useful in more cases than you'd think, like being able to say "get me directions to there" on a map or restaurant page without worrying about just saying "directions" and being flung off to a default address entry field. And some of the customization is still nice—who likes using their parents' full names?—but overall, the inability to make fine corrections to how Siri pronounces and recognizes words and speech (which many competitors are doing) is a frustrating hangup. (There's a new iOS 7 feature that lets you say "You're not pronouncing that correctly," but if you can't even get her to say it in the first place, that's faint help.)
The iPhone is still a beautiful phone, and iOS is more functional than ever. The redesign of the software makes it feel fresh, even though the phone looks more or less the same as last year. TouchID really works, and it's a huge convenience.
The camera is good, but its flash is a disappointment. Battery life isn't good, especially compared to some of the behemoths out there. And in places, iOS 7 feels unfinished, or poorly thought out.
The 5s is full of contradictions. It's iterative, boring, gimmicky, while at the same time taking the first, unsure steps into making the kind of smartphones and software Apple isn't already dominant in. Which is all-important for the company, but less so for what's in your pocket.
To you and me, the iPhone 5S is a great phone. It's not perfect, though. If you're a photo nerd or a customization buff, edge toward a Lumia or the Moto X. But most people know, generally, what an iPhone is like. And if that's something you want, then yes, buy this. It's the best and most convenient version of the iPhone yet.

The judging panel of America's Next Top Model will soon be getting a new look – in the form of fashion publicist and reality TV veteran Kelly Cutrone.
Cutrone, who appeared on MTV's The Hills and starred in Bravo's Kell on Earth, will replace André Leon Talley for cycle 18 early next year.
"I am a huge fan of America's Next Top Model and have watched the show for years," says Cutrone, 45, who owns People's Revolution. "Having worked in various aspects of the fashion industry over the course of my career, I am excited for this new opportunity and hope to bring a different perspective to the show."
Talley, 61, editor-at-large at Vogue, joined the show in early 2010, beginning with cycle 14, after many years of pleading from Tyra Banks.
"We have greatly enjoyed working with André Leon Talley and he has been an amazing asset to the America's Next Top Model family," says executive producer Ken Mok. "We wish him all the best in his future endeavors."
And he echoes the sentiment. "I had a great ride and will always consider my experience with Top Model one of the best moments of my life," Talley says. "Tyra is an incredible role model and I learned so much sitting next to her through four cycles."

If you look at our housing price charts, prices were correcting quickly from late 2008 to early 2009. The Bank of Canada had to follow the US bank rate reductions or our dollar would have went through the roof. Lower interest rates created a frenzy of buying that went unabated until this spring. Vancouver and Toronto are now showing signs of stress, sales of existing homes are substantially lower yoy, prices are starting to soften as well.

Ahem, have you looked at a chart of Canadian house prices from 2003 to present.
Here is a great Chronology of the CMHC ponzi scheme:
1954-1990- Somewhere along this time, 10% became minimum down payment.
1990- 5% was introduced as a trial run, then officially accepted in 1999.
2001 – Genworth (GE Capital) enters the Canadian mortgage insurance market
2001 – CIBC offered below-prime mortgages.
Pre-2003 – CMHC: 5% down with price limit depending on area, 25 yr amortizations, no price limit if 10% or more down
Sep 2003 – CMHC: 5% down, 25 yr amortizations, removed all price ceiling limitations. Now any mortgage would be insured regardless of the cost.
Mar 2004 – CMHC: Flex-Down product allows 5% down to be borrowed and 1.5% closing costs to be borrowed (essentially zero down, but 95% insured)
Mar 2006 – AIG enters the Canadian mortgage insurance market
Mar 2006 – CMHC: 0% down, 30 yr amortizations (Genworth announces 35 yr amortizations)
Jun 2006 – CMHC: 0% down, 35 yr amortizations, interest only payments allowed for 10 years
Nov 2006 – CMHC: 0% down, 40 yr amortizations, interest only payments allowed for 10 years
Oct 2008 – CMHC: 5% down, 35 yr amortizations, investors need 5% down.
April 2010- CMHC did some minor tightening of their guidelines, investors need 20% down.
March 2011- CMHC only allows 30 yr amortizations, restrictions on pulling equity out
2012 - CMHC only allows 25 yr amortizations, insured mortgages limited to $1 million, home equity refinance drops from 85% to 80%.
The amount of loosening that occured starting 2003 to 2006 was crazy. Any wonder home prices doubled over that period?

I hear lots of my fellow Canucks say it is different here, "we don't have sub-prime mortgages" - that's a laugh, all our mortgages are "sub-prime" - in the USA you can mortgage for 30 years and deduct interest from taxable income. In Canada the long dated mortgages are 5 year terms - when interest rates begin to rise all of our mortgages will "re-set" at higher rates. The fall could be quicker than the USA.
Up until Oct 31, 2012 our banks were still able to do "cash-back" mortgages.

The gates of the iconic Badrinath temple, one of the chardham yatra destinations, were closed on Thursday for the approaching winters amidst complete ceremonial rituals. Atleast 10,000 pilgrims were present at the temple to seek the last darshan of Lord Badrinath, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
