At Gourmed we believe you need to know a few important things about this unique place before you dive in to the food!
• In Basque tapas are called pintxos (pronounced pinchos).
• The Basque have developed the concept of tapas more than any other province in Spain.
• There is something called Sociedades or "Societies" where men go to eat, cook and hang out with male friends. Traditionally women were not allowed under any circumstances, nowadays, women are invited to eat but are not allowed in the kitchen.
• There is a very specific way to eat tapas do not get overwhelmed and order the whole bar: move from place to place, eat one or two tapas at each stop depending on their specialty, accompany each with a glass of wine or cider. Then move on.

1. Do not introduce yourself to potential mates like this.
2. Don't try to change her.
3. Don't fess up to this. It doesn't make you look cool.
4. Being in a relationship with yourself is the same thing as being alone. And lame.
5. "Walks" are not viable date activities.
6. Do not dress like this.
8. Do not attempt to infiltrate your date's mind by singing "Co-sta-nza" to the "By Mennen" jingle. (Even if it kinda works.)
9. Oh, sure.
10. Never, ever say this while doing the grown-up.
11. This concept is guaranteed to backfire.
12. While it's hard for women to resist the offer of a good thumb-wrestling match, it's not enough to prevent them from leaving you.
14. And then, of course, there's this method of seduction. At least you'll have the preservation of your youth to enjoy. Alone.

Research expands and augments your experience and knowledge, providing a broader base for thinking and writing. It enables you to become an expert in areas not directly related to your everyday life. When you engage in research, you build valuable critical skills that serve you in other areas of life. You learn to ask probing and thoughtful questions, gather and interpret data, read critically, form intelligent opinions, and manage and understand conflicting information. As you do research in your chosen specialization, you become an expert in that area. In addition, when you write about your discoveries, others come to respect your knowledge and value your opinion.

Married to Africaby G. Pascal Zachary
G. Pascal Zachary is a foreign correspondent for The Wall Street Journal when he finds love in, of all places, the zoo in Accra, Ghana. That is where he meets Chizo Okon, the surrogate mother for an orphaned chimpanzee. In Married to Africa, Zachary tells their warm and humorous story, which is as much about the marriage of two cultures as it is about the marriage of two people.
Showstopper!by G. Pascal Zachary
Showstopper is the dramatic, inside story of the creation of Windows NT, told by Wall Street Journal reporter G. Pascal Zachary. Driven by the legendary Bruce Cutler, a picked band of software engineers sacrifices almost everything in their lives to build a new, stable, operating system aimed at giving Microsoft a platform for growth through the next decade of development in the computing business.Comparable in many ways to the Pulitzer Prize-winning book The Soul of a New Machine by Tracy Kidder, Showstopper gets deep inside the process of software development, the lives and motivations of coders and the pressure to succeed coupled with the drive for originality and perfection that can pull a diverse team together to create a program consisting of many hundreds of thousands of lines of code.

Dancin' Dogg Golf Introduces Melbourne Golf Club Replication for OptiShot Infrared Simulator
November 15, 2011. Dancin' Dogg Golf - maker of the OptiShot Infrared Simulator, the ultimate in-home virtual golf system - has expanded its premium course library to include Melbourne Golf Club, a hyper-accurate replication of an Alister Mackenzie design that consistently ranks as Australia's No. 1 layout.
A two-time host of the biennial competition between American and International squads, Melbourne Golf Club is well-known for its reachable par-5s and spectacular yet well-guarded par-3 holes. With signature large, undulating greens it has repeatedly been rated among the "Top 100 Courses in the World" (Golf Magazine) and "Top 100 Best Golf Courses Outside the United States" (Golf Digest).
"It's thanks to our in-house design and development teams that we're able to deliver this kind of truly unparalleled experience in time for the upcoming competition," says Brandon Theophilus, CEO of Dancin' Dogg Golf. "This means that OptiShot users can test their skills on the same pressure shots their countrymen are about to face Down Under."
Available by download at www.dancindogg.com, Melbourne Golf Club ($49.95) is joined in the OptiShot premium library by replicas of other world-famous courses and major championship host sites, including Atlanta Highlands, Capitol Club, Cogs Corner, Jones Lake, Monterey Classic, Old Scot, Ponte Vedra, Royal St. Marks and Whispering Dunes.
OptiShot (MSRP: $399.95) connects with Windows computers via a plug-and-play interface and requires only 8-½ feet of swing space. With their own clubs, up to four players per round can compete by hitting real balls, foam balls (provided) or no ball at all. Infrared sensors on a durable swing pad precisely record club-head speed, face angle, swing path, distance, tempo, face contact and ball flight. In addition to Core courses that come with the system, OptiShot users can practice and compete on the par-3 option or a realistic driving range.
Dancin' Dogg Golf was recently ranked one of America's fast-growing entrepreneurial companies by Inc. Magazine, placing No. 358 on the prestigious Inc. 500 list for 2011. This honor was based on the company's 951.2% revenue growth from 2007 through 2010. That increase was fueled by exceptional demand for OptiShot, a fun, accurate, affordable and easy-to-use golf simulator that allows players to improve their games from the comfort of home.
About Dancin' Dogg Golf
Based in Traverse City, MI, Dancin' Dogg Golf was founded in 2005 and specializes in developing innovative technologies. The company was recently named to the prestigious Inc. 500 list as one of America's fastest-growing entrepreneurial companies. Other distinctions include winning SoreGolf's 2010 Research & Development Award. Dancin' Dogg's product range is highlighted by the OptiShot Infrared Golf Simulator and its expanding library of world class courses that golfers play anytime, anywhere. Durable and built to last, OptiShot comes with a 180-day warranty and has been heralded by leading authorities nationwide, including GOLF Magazine, Golfweek, Sports Illustrated, Wired and Golf Channel.

Tyrone tells Frankie she will have to cope on her own at the Café as Vera is having the day off. Jamie and Frankie discuss Norris's accident. Lloyd finds Becky in his room trying on Kelly's clothes - she is acting strangely. Rosie tries to persuade Kevin and Sally to let Craig come over but they are just not ready for that yet. Kelly is cross at Becky for wearing her clothes without asking. Adam is very hung over from the night before Kan and Deirdre are not happy. Ken wants Adam to get a job. Lloyd confides in Steve about Becky's behaviour - Steve just laughs it off. Frankie is not coping well on her own in the Café and is also worried what Norris will do when he gets home from Hospital. Norris arrives home and Frankie thinks it is a good idea to buy him flowers to butter him up. When she sees Norris is in genuine pain and needing the aid of a wheelchair she doesn't speak to him and takes the flowers back with her. Jamie tells Frankie the Café has got mice - she is more bothered about Norris. Kelly tells Lloyd it is time for Becky to move out. The Health Inspector calls at the café because of the accident yesterday. He sees the mice and tells Frankie she has to shut the place down until he gives it the all clear in a few days.

CR 195: Bicycle helmets and Injury Prevention: A Formal Review (2000)
"Bicycle helmet efficacy is quantified using a formal meta-analytic approach based on peer-reviewed studies...The results are based on studies conducted in Australia, the USA, Canada and the United Kingdom, published in the epidemiological and public health literature in the period 1987- 1998. The summary odds ratio estimate for efficacy is 0.40 (95% confidence interval 0.29, 0.55) for head injury, 0.42 (0.26, 0.67) for brain injury, 0.53 (0.39, 0.73) for facial injury and 0.27 (0.10, 0.71) for fatal injury. This indicates a statistically significant protective effect of helmets." BHSI note: Most of the "helmets" in pre-1987 days were not capable of meeting today's standards. If the study were redone with more recent data we would expect a more protective effect would emerge.

Today's question dealt with the acquisition of Jim Thome by the Orioles:
If YOU DON'T BELIEVE Jim Thome juiced, I have some beachfront property I'd like to sell you. All of today's players are juiced — some just haven't been caught yet. Highly doubtful. No one has ever whispered Thome's name in connection with anything. He's as close to a throwback slugger as we have left in the game.
I GUESS TIGER IS SHUTTING UP all you haters out there, isn't he?
SOMEONE SAID IN FAN LINE that Tiger hasn't "beaten the big boys" lately. Well, he beat a top field at the Memorial, and last week Congressional played more like a U.S. Open course according to many of the players. Tiger has won three of the last seven tour events, and with 74 career wins, no competing player is even close. Tiger should be #1 until he retires.
AS ONE PERSON WHO STILL believes that integrity is an important part of the game of golf, I think that Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer should not have to step aside for anybody, no matter what they do.
I HEAR DUSTY BAKER COMPLAINING that Tony La Russa didn't pick a particular player from his Reds for the All-Star game. Hey Dusty — there's no crying in baseball!
I LOVE READING FAN LINE BECAUSE EVERY DAY SOME IDIOT calls in with misinformation. What's (David) Beckham been here playing soccer — six years? He has a spotless record in Major League Soccer. And then during the heat of battle, he gets into one scramble, and someone writes in and says send him back to England, and that's why soccer will never make it here.
WHY CAN SOMEBODY WHO ALREADY HAS a field hockey scholarship for college come and play on the soccer team on days when there is no field hockey? There are plenty of people who would like to round out the team. Teams have practice days as well.
ON PAGE 3 MONDAY IT SAYS ALLEN WEIK swam 1500 meters in 42.49 seconds. That must be a misprint! It was a misprint — Weik's time was 15:39.78. If he could swim 1500 meters in 42.49, he'd beat Shamu for a spot on the Olympic team.

Nintendo has already stated that what was in those "gamecubes" was the wii guts that they just didn't have enough wii casings produced at the time to use them at the E3 trade show
Probably IGN , since the logo was on the pictures.
Nintendo has already stated that what was in those "gamecubes" was the wii guts that they just didn't have enough wii casings produced at the time to use them at the E3 trade show
Please PM me before adding me!
I don't mind them using it. They were still in development and i can understand. At least they showed us what they had so far
i knew that the graphics were bad but the game play was just heavenly and with improved graphics it will be great
come on a multi billion dollar company wont make mistakes as these...
i think its fake and that somebody put the ign logo there as i havent seen this on ign
your telling me they didnt have one wii to play with??? come on peeps think?!?!?
will se the truth in 19days and 8hrs
In the making
after the E3 show, the Wii was not completely finished yet. so wat u saw there is oging to be better, since time brought on more development within the console itself in the past few months. as of right now, the Wii has been completed for a while; alls this means when the blind kid received the Wii is that the Wii is indeed finished, but the release date occurs past when its completed so that more Wiis could be in production until they meet the 4,000,000 quota when it can then go out to stores. this doesnt necessarily mean that they cant work on future projects for the Wii like packages and what not, however.
"Many religions within a nation causes little conflict, but two religions within a nation is nothing less than conflict."
"If you can speak three languages, you are trinomial. If you can speak two languages, you are binomial. If you can speak one language, you are American."
"Speak softly and carry a big stick"--Theodore Roosevelt. Haha describes me nicely.
companies often use incomplete dev kits in shows, the game in loaded into memory to avoid loading times (unless they are showing off fast loading time )
ign have received their complete wii (the review version, with green front) minus connect24 feature (because it isnt live yet) - bang goes the unfinished ATi card theory as their memory had game saves stored
in the last e3 sony where using dev kits is rack mount form
with only a few days before us release, the console must have gone through some official testing for wifi protocols (for the strict wifi compatablity laws)
even if the pics arent fake, then the 1st photo could well be the wii in dev kit form, and the GCs could be at the front of the stage for any reason
i would say it is more complete than the ps3 is and has a more definitive release schedule
i do remember Intel where shown to use Amiga 4000+video toaster for some presentations in a show... lol
Nintendo has already stated that they only had Dev kits available and that they had not completely configured how everything was going to fit inside the wii casing. This is really a non-issue. It was so long ago...
And don't get your hopes up that those were merely GC graphics and that the wii will be better. Thats not how it works. it was the GC casing with Wii technology. Simple as that, and there's no shame in doing that. It's about the technology. Not the shape of the casing.
I quite certainly think that the games shown at E3 of this year wouldn't have shown much of the Nintendo Wii's real graphical capabilities.
I think for many of these first batch of games, developers would be quite careful about not to over do the graphics, as to ensure games would run well, and maybe to lower development time.
I think I have recently been reading news about graphical tweaks for certain games (or maybe it was just Red Steel?), which maybe a sign of things to come, I dunno... I think that as developers get to know the Wii Hardware in a practical sense, then they will get to know the limits and hopefully the graphics will get better.
Finally, I'm quite pleased with the graphics I've seen so far... and I must say I'd prefer games with unique/fun gameplay and ordinary graphics, over games with ordinary gameplay and great graphics.

YOUNGSTOWN - Shortly after taking over as Youngstown State University president in 2010, Cynthia Anderson stood on the bridge that crosses over Wick Avenue, greeting and hugging students.

That and other memories were shared on campus Tuesday when Anderson gave her last State of the University address. A reception immediately followed the address, during which Anderson was greeted and congratulated by those wishing her well as she prepared to retire after a more than 40-year involvement with the university and its students, faculty and staff.
"While today I speak to you from this podium for the last time as your president, please know that it is certainly not the last time that I will speak to you as a colleague and a friend. I still have a lifetime to do that," she said.
Karen Cooper of Canfield, who said she considers Anderson a dear friend, remembers the day when Anderson was hugging students as they walked over the bridge, and said it is an example of the way she always puts students first.
"That's what it's all about. She's just an amazing woman. She will truly be missed," she said.
YSU senior Luke Politsky talked about Anderson's sense of humor.
"When she goes up on stage, she likes to make fun of me. She'll joke with me publicly," he said, laughing. "It's nice to see somebody that's engaged with students."
Politsky, a business management major who also is involved with the student government, graduates next month.
"We're very sad to see her go, but we're very grateful for the impact that she's had on students' experiences here. Enough can't be said about her interaction with us," he said.
Patty Gillis, administrative assistant for YSU's Procurement Services, said Tuesday was a sad day for YSU.
"I'm delighted for her to be able to move on, and I know she won't neglect this place. It's a part of her. She's accomplished great things," she said.
Accounting professor Ray Shaffer said Anderson will be missed.
"She's done a great job. She's always been very student-oriented and that shows in everything she's done," he said.
Mike McGriffin, Kilcawley Center building manager, called Anderson the matriarch of the university and said she has left an indelible mark on the campus.
"Her personality (will be missed the most). I think that her leadership style very much exemplified her personality. She's the type of person to make everybody feel as important and as loved as the next person," he said. "She's set a very happy and willing atmosphere. I think it'll continue with the faculty and staff that remain."
Anderson also said though she won't play a formal role in the process to select her successor, she will have the opportunity to speak with the candidates. She said she will be sure to tell them the greatest resource YSU has today and has always had is its human resource.
The three final candidates are William R. Decatur, executive vice president of the Rhode Island School of Design, Providence; Randy J. Dunn, president of Murray State University, Murray, Ky.; and James D. Moran III, vice chancellor for academic and student affairs, Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education.
Starting today, they will each visit the campus to greet faculty, academic chairs and academic senate leadership, YSU students, and members of the university and outside community. Once the visits are complete, YSU's Board of Trustees will vote on a final candidate.
Anderson said although her name isn't on any buildings, towers or streets, she hopes people remember her as a good, decent person whose passion was to serve students in any way she was capable.
"What could possibly be a better legacy than that?" she asked. "For forty-plus years, it has truly been a privilege."

I eat 2% Fage a couple times a week. I buy the plain kind and add cinnamon to it, maybe some chopped nuts like pecans, and in the case of tonight.... strawberries.
How long have you been on the primal diet? I can't imagine sweet n low tasting good at all if you have been on it for any period of time.
Reading marks books, searching the forums for the word "Yogurt", searching the main site for the word "Yogurt", searching the forum for the word "carb", searching the main website for the word "carb" will all point you in directions to answer your questions.
The reasoning being that flavored yogurt -> carbs -> how many carbs do you want? Can you tolerate dairy?
Really, no one can decide how often to eat yogurt better than you can.
edit: I realize this post comes off as kind of dickish, so let me add a few points and clarify.
1. Stay away from sweet n low. IF you have to add sugar, please try honey or agave nectar.
2. Stay away from flavored versions if you are trying to lose weight
3. Consume it as a treat unless you are fit, know how many carbs you want, and can tolerate dairy.

It is an exceptional incident, and the multiple coverage of it sticks to the pathos and tragedy of the story itself, rather than suggesting there are some wider lessons here. But there may be one or two, and both are drawn out by a former pupil of Mrs. Maguire's, novelist Anthony McGowan. In a powerful article for the Daily Telegraph, McGowan both remembers why Mrs. Maguire was such an important teacher for him, and combines it with reflections on the difference that has passed in schools between his time and now, the time in fact that Ann Maguire has been teaching.
The article as a whole is worth reading, as McGowan employs his novelist's eye and personal memory to reach a little further into this tragedy. But a couple of his observations should be noted by educationalists and politicians who fancy themselves as such. The first is his comment - as a novelist who visits many state schools - that schools now (and they are mainly comprehensives of course), whatever their rating on the Ofsted system, are gentler, more welcoming places than he remembers Corpus Christi being. The violence has been giving way to greater tolerance. This is a welcome and positive message, a sign that liberal ideas on the teaching and care of pupils in school are indeed having an impact. Talk about indiscipline and taking on authority if you must, but remember that when corporal punishment reigned in the corridors, so did pupil violence on a wider scale.
McGowan's second observation is that while violence seems generally to have become less, where it happens it has the potential - as on Monday at Corpus - to be utterly lethal. Knives have become too commonplace. And a knife can end a struggle before it's even begun.
I don't know what wider lesson we might draw from that latter observation. McGowan sensibly doesn't seek to do so. But the liberal battle for a stay of violence seems as urgent now as ever, as a new front has opened up over the past decade.
As for Mrs. Maguire, the testaments to her are humbling indeed for anyone to read, but especially teachers. I hope they were being made during her life as well, I really do.


text: My husband and I have been married for about 1 yr ever since the marriage his now14 y/o dtr hates me due to the fact that her mother is a bitter person. I have reassured her that I would never come in between her dad and her but the problems keep getting bigger. His ex and my ex got together and has caused us misery!! I would understand if we left our spouses for each other but that is not the case..They both left us. My husband's ex is nothing but a liar. They had been divorced for 4 yrs, she left him because she cheated on him numerous times. That was her 3rd marriage. She does nothing but use men and is not a good mother at all. My stepdaughter's my space is filthy!!! My husband had the children also 7y/o dtr half the time and he did not pay child support but he provided health insurance,. He is responsible loving man that has been totally betrayed by the lies of his 14 y/o. It was so bad that we decided to move he nows pay child support and he of course wants to take care of his children but his 14 y/0 has called and left nasty messages on our phones, has called me every name in the book and it is worse than ever, He has poured his heart out to her and all she knows to do is strive on conflict. Her mother lets her go to parties where drinking is involoved, she has already snuk out of the house and she is doing nothing but rebelling. Christmas is coming up and we are going to visit but my husband does not want her around during the holidays because all she does is start conflict. His mother is torn apart. I told my husband that I would be fine with her coming and I will be as pleasant and enjoy every bit of it I just know to keep my gaurd up. I don;t understand how she has accepted the man that was having the affair on her dad and he has provided them a place to live ever since their divorce but is acting so horrible towards her father? I am committed to my husband as well as his children but when you have an ex that is so evil you get to the point that you don't know what else to do. Any advice?

The Muslim Brotherhood is active throughout the Islamic world and there's concern that the group is taking over the revolution that swept Hosni Mubarak from power in Egypt.
As many have feared, that group is gaining influence in Egypt. CBN News Terror Analyst Erick Stakelbeck talked more about the growing influence of the Muslim Brotherhood on The 700 Club, April 4. Click play for his comments following John Waage's report.
Increasingly, the secular faces seen during the protests are being shouldered aside by Islamists, particularly in the recent nationwide referendum that reshaped Egypt's political structure.
One month ago, Mohammed Elbaradei was one of the heroes of the revolution. But on Referendum Day, a mob threw stones at Elbaradei, cursed him, and ultimately kept him from casting his ballot.
He opposed the referendum because he believes new political parties need time to organize and gain support.
According to Elbaradei, holding elections in September only helps established groups like the Muslim Brotherhood. And many in Egypt's Christian community agree with him.
Ramez Attalah is director of the Bible Society in Egypt.
"Democracy in our context gives a grass root majority -- if it's by popular vote -- for a very radical Islam, like Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza. We expected that if there is a democratic election that the radical Islam would take over the country," he explained.
Radical Islamic leaders pushed hard to pass the referendum, telling Egyptians they had a 'spiritual obligation" to vote 'yes.'
Others took a more worldly approach. One video shows a man filling in dozens of 'yes' ballots. Opponents say thousands of ballots may have been faked.
Clerics also made it clear they would tolerate no changes to the longstanding constitutional provision establishing Islam as Egypt's official religion.
"In this case, we will declare the jihad in the sake of Allah, immediately, God willing," one cleric said.
For Egypt's Christians, the Islamists' actions are a sign they will continue to be second-class citizens. Christians already suffered government discrimination under the Mubarak regime and were the target of deadly attacks by radical Muslims.
They believe that under the Muslim Brotherhood the situation will only get worse.
"What we're concerned about is the long term," Attalah said. "We're concerned about the elections in four years time after these elections. Because what we're seeing now is the nice face will we then see a different approach. Their history seems to indicate that what we're seeing now is not what we will see in the future."
Attalah says the new reality in Egypt doesn't necessarily mean more freedom for Christians. But it could lead to a stronger church.
"I personally believe that if Christians in Egypt are under duress in more difficult situations, their faith will flourish and it will be better for the gospel. If we get the freedom we're yearning for, the gospel as a message and a lifestyle will weaken," he said.

If you are an investor who has been looking heavily at the ultra-deepwater part of the rig market, you may be overlooking that the shallower jack-up market is having a pretty good run as well. Hercules Offshore (UNKNOWN: HERO.DL ) estimates that 95% of all jack-up rigs that are marketed to customers are currently in use, and another 123 rigs are projected to hit the market in the next couple of years.
One of the big reasons we are seeing so much activity in the jack-up market is because several large players in the Gulf of Mexico are going back to drill in shallower waters to explore deeper formations using horizontal drilling. Chevron (NYSE: CVX ) and Apache (NYSE: APA ) are two of the leading companies pushing this movement, and their presence could keep Hercules busy in the Gulf of Mexico for several years. Tune into to the video below where fool.com contributor Tyler Crowe discusses two other important takeaways from Hercules' recent earnings release.
An energy giant set to lead
Advanced technology in the offshore exploration has been a critical cog in transitioning the global oil market away from the traditional centers of power. Of all the companies that are giving OPEC headaches, this one behind-the-scenes energy giant is at the heart of this transition. We have put together a brand-new Motley Fool special report that goes into depth about the company we're calling OPEC's Worst Nightmare. Simply click here and we'll give you access to this valuable report that unveils the name of this industry leader.

New iPhone is not likely to feature NFC: here's why
0. phoneArena 28 Aug 2012, 08:47 posted on
We might have heard countless rumors about the upcoming sixth-generation iPhone from Apple, but while they all agree on some things like the larger, 4-inch screen, newer 32nm chip…
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. wendygarett (unregistered)
The answer is obvious!!! Because iphone don't even have the blutooth file transfer!!!
Why would iphone wanna give you the 'iBeam' when you cant even transfer file via bluetooth?
3. PAPINYC (banned) (Posts: 2315; Member since: 30 Jul 2011)
No Wendy, no NFC this go around because that will be iMplemented into the iPhone 5S six months, or so, after the release of iPhone 5.
5. kartik4u98 (Posts: 511; Member since: 19 May 2012)
I like when you give your views against Apple.!
18. wendygarett (unregistered)
but i still wanna to buy it someday tho :)

49. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
And I can see the rationale from the Apple fans already.....its not necessary. Its useless...etc, etc.
Guess what happens when the next iPhone gets NFC...it all of a sudden becomes the greatest thing in the world...
59. JessJess (unregistered)
Which is exactly what Android fans do. What's your point?
They are called 'fans' for a reason.
60. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
If I recall....not many Android fans never said the Retina Display wasnt necessary...but I remember many iPhone, Apple fans saying 800x400 screen res was unnecessary.....while the 3GS was on a lower screen res.
I remember many Android fans pointing out how Apple, iPhone fans all of a sudden thought higher screen res was great now that the iPhone 4 had it.
Thats my point.
63. JessJess (unregistered)
.......... Ok if you want.
2. frydaexiii (Posts: 1443; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
*snicker*snicker* So what's so innovative this round? More Siri languages? Zero-shutter lag?
6. PAPINYC (banned) (Posts: 2315; Member since: 30 Jul 2011)
They did 'zero shutter lag' already; my guess is more SiRi languages so that more people around the world can talk to themselves in long mundane diAlogue like John Malkovich in the TV spots.
7. kartik4u98 (Posts: 511; Member since: 19 May 2012)

let me guesss.. another crappy processor they made named ''A7''...
the proccessor is actually not that good- its just the iPhone's UI and OS IS JUST TO SIMPLE- a Galaxy ace with iLauncher on it runs as fast as an iPhone.

The Xperia P managed the NFC Xperia SmartTags with its aluminum body
10. doejon (Posts: 398; Member since: 31 Jul 2012)
but its not a unibody cuz areas where the nfc-chip and other antennas are are NOT covered with aluminum!
11. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
Probably because it would cut into Apple's profit margin.
13. structureman116 (Posts: 139; Member since: 14 Sep 2010)
Ummm...PA could have saved a lot of space on this page by just writing one sentence on this topic..."The reason why is because its another Apple piece of $h*t"!!
14. frydaexiii (Posts: 1443; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
You know what I think this is? Imagine
Now : "New iPhone is not likely to feature NFC: here's why"
When new iPhone is released : "OMG! IT HAS NFC! SO INNOVATIVE!!!!!"
So they just made something that should have been, into an overhyped feature.
15. gameday78 (Posts: 48; Member since: 17 Mar 2012)
all of these rumors are chasing people away from buying a new phone... What gives anyone the right to keep passing these along. I was watching my local news and they were talking about it like its set in stone and i know customers are buying into it. so if sept comes and we dont have an iphone launch they are gona freak out... please stop spreading this crap till u know or hear anything from apple. fyi the world will end in dec i read it online!
16. ekia007 (Posts: 61; Member since: 27 Feb 2012)
that will be infringment in patent. you can't copy that Apple
17. bucky (Posts: 2576; Member since: 30 Sep 2009)
i have yet to really see a use for nfc. Apple will most likely make is usefull somehow.
30. aokde (Posts: 186; Member since: 09 Jul 2012)
here you go:
50. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
Android and other mobile OS's that use it now already made it useful.
Please dont fall for the Apple hype...just because Apple isnt using it doesnt means its useless. You probably think 4G/LTE is a waste of time now too...
54. bucky (Posts: 2576; Member since: 30 Sep 2009)
I realize that it's not new to the industry but for some reason apple always puts it together. Nobody really cared about video chat before FaceTime. Nobody really paid attention to ppi, thinness of a phone and accessories either before the the 4 came along. I'm not a bias apple fan as I love My sgs2 but apple always makes it work as it should.
Guess we will see what they will do with it mainly with accessories i think.
55. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
Thats the thing. When Android and Win Mo phone had a higher screen res and ppi....it didnt matter....cuz it was higher than the 3GS. And Android and Win Mo companies didnt hype it like Apple does.
Apple comes and hypes up the Retina Display...now all of a sudden it matters. Phones with higher screen res and ppi were already there, just not hyped beyond belief.
Apple isnt dealing with LTE yet on the iPhone because it a battery drain and kinda unstable. I'm surprised the iPad is LTE....maybe because of the big battery...By the time the iPhone gets it...LTE tech will be more mature...and ppl will think its better because Apple did it. When its really just LTE tech will be better by then.
The more I see it...Apple are the masters of hype. Without really giving real credit to why its good or better on their products.
56. bucky (Posts: 2576; Member since: 30 Sep 2009)
I fully get what u r saying. Maybe it's just a case of paying full attention to that one feature and making sure it runs as it should. Though the iPhone does lack slightly in the features compared to android it does everything in baby steps(updates) and makes sure they just work.

Never read article on PA that S3 (or a particular Android smartphone) wont have NFC or wud have NFC, wud have that dfeature, wont have that feature..
Only when it comes to Apple, even if a simple feature is present or absent, a new article is written.
Seriously.. no one cares about apple that much... why is every feature in Apple is given so much importance.

No NFC? I'm sorry, How behind is gonna be Apple now? Should we wait for one more year?
They better have LTE in their iPhone this September.

We all saw that "survey" a few days ago claiming 4G not that important to "a majority" of users.
When the next iPhone is not 4g on both GSM & CDMA systems, watch how often that "pre fact" is quoted.
41. Savage (unregistered)
Ummmm, Yeah. Say the people who have never used 4G. Once we are used to faster speeds, going back to 3G will be a nightmare. Plus the New iPad has LTE. Why shouldn't the new iPhone?

I ask here in the office 20 people aprox. all Android users and not one uses NFC, so I don't see the big deal yet...
29. JessJess (unregistered)
It's a big deal because its not on an iPhone yet but its on Android phones.... that's it. If the situation was reversed, people would be defending why its /not/ on Android phones calling it useless.... (sad but true).
Apple are getting things in place (they just got a patent awarded recently) to put NFC on their phones, and more importantly, give it a purpose for being there for most people. At least that is my hope, otherwise its just another useless feature. There is virtually nothing I can do with NFC here, unless someone else I know has an NFC phone.

When "20 people around the office" see you coming, do they all think " here comes that loser to ask about my phones operating system"?
Or just most of them?

LMAO!!! Thumbs up!!!
53. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
It already has a purpose cuz ppl are using NFC as we speak. You really think it takes Apple to do something for it to be useful?
NFC is used for more than communicating with another phone. There's payment systems. Ppl are using it for that now.
58. JessJess (unregistered)
I already am talking about the payment system btw. That is only available by region. There is no where *here* I can pay for things with NFC.
And no it does not take Apple to do something "useful" but I believe that Apple have the ability to sway adoption.

SONY has figured a way to make NFC usable right away when you unbox your XPERIA:http://youtu.be/LfkFgtoQtFQ

Those 20 people might not use it, but all the people with Google wallet do. I personally use it to send pictures to my sister quicker.
51. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
And I know of at least 2 ppl who finds it useful.
So whats the point of your 20 ppl survey? Ask those same 20 ppl do they use banking apps on their phones.Would you think banking apps are useless if they didnt use it? Ask them do they buy things online. Would you think shopping online is useless if they dont do it?
We all dont use our phones the same or do the same things. Its useful for ppl that have a use for it. Thats with anything...
27. speckledapple (Posts: 892; Member since: 29 Sep 2011)
Mark my words. if all Apple has to show for its iPhone upgrade is a larger screen (with higher resolution I might suggest), thinner profile, and LTE, and a few SIri upgrades, it will be a disappointment to those who felt the 4S was not much of a bump. This will levy largely against them if thats the case.

They did add the new maps into the new iOS as well not sure about the other additions.

I doubt that most people who have phones with NFC actually use it. (Yes, I get that a lot of people still do/would want to use it).
I think NFC is nice feature to have, but not an essential one at this point.
35. Gsmalltheway (Posts: 174; Member since: 15 Aug 2009)
I really dont think it will be called the iPhone 5. The 4s was actually the fifth generation iphone. They willl probably just call it the "New iPhone" or the iphone 6
38. PotDragon (banned) (Posts: 214; Member since: 22 Jul 2011)
No doubt.
It makes me laugh how often the rumors are floated for a handset for which they don't even have the correct name. No chance it is called an iPhone5. None.

People need to get over the fact that it doesn't include NFC...big deal. Just another reason for lazy people not to reach into their pockets and pull their wallets out.
52. jroc74 (Posts: 6005; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
They might still have to reach in their pockets to pull their phones out...
The logic is amazing...
Maybe....just maybe....ppl use NFC for convenience. Like Speed Pass. Or Smart Trip cards, or credit cards, or...[insert convenient item here].

I thought Apple was granted a patent in 2011 for incorporating an NFC antenna in the display screen.
57. rallyguy (Posts: 620; Member since: 13 Mar 2012)
This patent thing is absurd. How can you patent the location where you put a chip? Is Apple forever banned from having a removable battery? If they did, tne they would be "copying" someone else. This patent crap has to stop.
You shouldn't be able to patent "round corners" and "a clear screen" with a display under it. Common!!!

While it might be too late to up his 2012-13 goals-against average and save percentage to a savory number, St. Louis Blues goaltender Brian Elliott is flaunting all-important hints of peaking at the right time.
After a 3-6-1 start followed by a month-long hiatus from game action, Elliott has started his homestretch on a three-game winning streak.
He turned away 19 of 20 Minnesota Wild shots and then 33 of 36 in 65 minutes en route to a shootout win over the regal Chicago Blackhawks. Most recently, he blanked the host Detroit Red Wings, 1-0, with a 28-save effort Sunday afternoon to help St. Louis leapfrog them in the standings.
Even if Elliott cannot fully repair his swollen GAA or sub-.900 save percentage, what matters is that he bolsters a run to the postseason and has the Blues poised to build on the foundation they sculpted in 2012.
Assuming he keeps up his timely, torrid pace, let the reigning co-recipient of the William Jennings Trophy be a model to other leaned-on NHL players who have lagged for the better part of 2013.
Here are some other NHLers who have been out of character since the belated season began or have had too many bouts of inconsistency but can render all of that moot by excelling in the climax of the campaign.

Taking Uncertainty Seriously: Revising Injunction Doctrine
Joshua P. Davis
University of San Francisco - School of Law
Rutgers Law Journal Vol. 34, No. 2, 2003
Currently, courts are supposed to resolve cases in two separate stages. First, they are to assess the merits. Second, they are to provide a remedy. In the first stage, they may be uncertain about the right result. They may even acknowledge their uncertainty. Indeed, the burden of persuasion is necessary precisely because courts must find facts in the face of persistent doubt. Once a court arrives at its view of the merits, however, current doctrine generally requires that it fashion relief as if it were sure it had decided the merits properly. This article challenges this way of proceeding, at least in the context of injunctive relief. It argues that the values that animate civil adjudication will be served best if courts take into account their uncertainty about the merits in deciding whether to grant an injunction. In particular, by considering their doubts about the merits and the relative stakes to the parties, courts can minimize expected error costs more effectively than current doctrine allows. To do so, they should tend to avoid erring to the detriment of the party that will be most affected by an injunction. The clearest implication of this argument is that courts should use a sliding scale approach to the burden of persuasion, placing a lighter or heavier evidentiary burden on the plaintiff, depending on whether the plaintiff or defendant values more highly a favorable decision on injunctive relief.

What We Learned Today, Monday February 13th, 2012...
ADELE MAKES A GREAT COMEBACK FROM THROAT SURGERY (sorry it's the best video I could find)...
Comments...from Henry
I am opposed to these new rules bascuee caffeine is so unknown to many people and most believe that caffeine is not a drug, but it is. Yet these rules state that the limited amount put in energy drinks is180 milligrams that would probably sicken or even kill a child from the ages four to nine years old. Try to imagine you are all grown up you and you open up a lets say a Red Bull you got a lovely spouse a five year old and a two year old. You just remember that it is garbage day so you put your Red Bull on the coffee table, your two year old comes by does not know what it is? so he starts chugging all 180 milligrams of caffeine and whole sugar bowl down till it's gone. Well we know the end your son dies. not only do you cry and hate yourself your family hates you.

Another important part is that if you are an elrdely person, travel insurance for pensioners is something you ought to really look at. The mature you are, the harder at risk you happen to be for allowing something undesirable happen to you while overseas. If you are not covered by several comprehensive insurance, you could have many serious troubles. Thanks for discussing your hints on this blog.

I thought not, since I think it should be fair regardless if you made a human child or a Blastoise for a daemon. So?
A default daemon with no items equipped has no 'powers'. To attack in the MMO part of the game, you need to equip items and such (or you could use your 'bare fists' but it does crap all damage). For instance, if you wanted to have a Blastoise as a daemon, Pokémon would have done a deal with CLOUD to make that possible. Then, you'd have a giant, blue turtle default. Then, you'd have to equip an item (let's call it a "Cannon Shell") for the body, an item for the claws and a magic accessory for the water 'magic'. Plus extra items for each element (if you wanted ice as well).
So, you have the potential to make a Blastoise with a bird for a body instead of a turtle.

Poisonous Wings, for example, could take up the "shoulders" slot on the character, and they get powered up with each level instead of wearing a cape/cloak/something. To compensate for not needing the majority of the loot they'd win, they'd get a tax on their gold earned.
I had two ideas for items and characters.
The first idea was that you've got slots. So yeah, a shoulder slot, head slot, face slot, body slot, over body etc etc etc. Like you would in any normal game.
Second idea was slots PLUS armour vs weapon points. Each character, depending on level, would have a certain number of weapon and armour points (which would depend on your level/stats) that they could use, as not all held items could be weapons. For example, Michaela's character. Those wings would take a shoulder spot, like you said. Then, because they're super OP, would have a really, REALLY high weapon number and a really high armour number. So, she could only equip the wings as a weapon and maybe one other, low numbered armour. Then, she'd be maxed out and couldn't equip anything else.
Although, it would be possible to equip something and nullify the points it uses if its a decorative item only.

Melee is very much based on stats. As damage is dealt in points (everyone would have a certain amount of HP), if a tiny fairy was up against a golem and the golem had super crappy HP and defence, it would be slaughtered by a fairy that had high attack. If the golem had high evasion though, it might dodge all the moves and slowly get the fairy's HP down.
Though, I thought all this stuff was stuff I didn't need to include because it makes things really complicated and confusing and I thought people were going to just use things ... fairly. d:
EDIT: oh, the only place stats dont matter is the ACID arena. everyone's stats are equalised there to make fights fair. all based on skill.

Also, if you're going to use those wings, they'd be fighting wings and incapable of flight.

Recently, New York Jets backup quarterback Tim Tebow pulled out of a scheduled appearance at Robert Jeffress' megachurch "due to new information" he received regarding Jeffress' view. While he never specified what the "new information" was, Tebow was almost certainly referring to Jeffress' virulent attacks on gays and lesbians, Roman Catholicism, Mormonism, Islam and President Obama. Yet just weeks after withdrawing from speaking at Jeffress's church, Tebow is now set to address Liberty University later this month at a conference geared... MORE >

KALAMAZOO, MI -- Less than two months before Michael "Mike Mike" Day was gunned down on a Kalamazoo street, the 13-year-old middle school student was shot in the back in an incident witnesses linked to rival groups.
A funeral service at the NHBP Tribal Community Center in Fulton is set for 3 p.m. Tuesday for Michael, who was shot to death on Memorial Day in Kalamazoo's Edison neighborhood. Fifteen-year-old Victor Garay has been charged with murder and conspiracy to commit murder, as well as two counts of felony use of a firearm, and will be prosecuted as an adult, Kalamazoo County Prosecutor Jeffrey Getting announced Monday. Getting's office also authorized the same charges Monday against Rashad Perez, 18, and Octavius Charles Snell, 23, both of Kalamazoo, in connection with Michael's killing.
Police have not characterized the May 26 shooting as gang-related, but a police report obtained by the Kalamazoo Gazette through the Michigan Freedom of Information Act ties an early April shooting in which Michael was struck in the back to a dispute between the "Washington Street Boys" and "Trapp Money."
Kalamazoo Public Safety officers responded to the area of Portage and Lake streets at about 11:40 p.m. April 5 on the report of gunshots. Officer Scott Brooks, who was patrolling the area, wrote in a police report that he heard 20 to 25 shots.
Michael was found with a gunshot wound to the back and was taken to Bronson Methodist Hospital, where he was treated and released days later.
Witnesses told police that a fight broke out at a birthday party Michael attended at a house on Carr Street, according to the police report. One witness told investigators several members of the Washington Street Boys were at the party when Trapp Money members arrived and began arguing with them. He and several others, including Michael, left the party to avoid confrontation, that witness said.
The argument turned physical and shots were fired, according to another witness, who said the Washington Street Boys are made up of 16 to 20-year-old Hispanic men, while Trapp Money is made up of 16 to 20-year-old black men.
The report said: "(Witness) stated he was certain there was more than one gun being fired and thought the groups were shooting at each other. He stated he heard about 15 shots fired."
As Michael and a few others were walking down Lake Street away from the party, they heard gunshots, according to the police report. Michael told detectives after he was shot that he had heard about 25 gunshots during a fight between 15 to 20 people.
The 13-year-old told police he believed Trapp Money members were the shooters. The report said Michael denied being involved with a gang and that when asked by police who "he rolled with," he said "himself."
Michael's mother, Dora Lopez, was interviewed by police at the hospital and said she didn't know her son had left home to go to the birthday party. She told officers she suspected Trapp Money members of shooting her son April 5 and that they had shot up her vehicle a few weeks earlier.
"She did not elaborate on this but it is known that there are many fights and shootings in this area between the Washington Street Boys (gang) and the Trap Money (gang)," wrote Officer Benjamin Ulman in the police report.
Four teenage suspects were detained after the shooting, two of whom were arrested on outstanding warrants. But no one was charged in the shooting, because police couldn't gather enough evidence to establish probable cause, according to the police report on the April incident.
