Is this the Apple iPhone 5's display assembly?
0. phoneArena 19 Aug 2012, 22:26 posted on
Pictures obtained by smartphone repair shop UBREAKiFIX.com from one of its distributors claim to show the display assembly for the upcoming Apple iPhone 5; the pictures don't really offer anything new, but a closeup does reveal serial numbers to "prove" the authenticity of the photos...

It is just soo hard to look at a slightly taller and thinner phone and get excited. Add in a UI that is so 2010 (maybe 2009?), and the 'new' iPhone is just a Yawn.
Best wishes to those who are eagerly anticipating the new iPhone. Unfortunately, you don't know what you are missing in JB (even ICS for that matter).

And JB(ics) is?
46. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
JB = Jelly Bean (aka Android v. 4.1)
ICS = Ice Cream Sandwich (aka Android v. 4.0)

Wow, android? R U sure, dude? I have had android phone, but to compare it with an iPhone, wait a sec:) Android is a nice OS(athough copied), but I'd take one only for a second phone, never for my main one. I use 4S and Nokia now.

What a false statement, if you have used an android phone or tablet you would know that iOS and Android have different feature sets and UI. I don't get it why an iOS fanboy would lie about this sort of thing.
Features that iOS lack;
1. Bluetooth file transfer
2. Third Party Apps Multitasking capabilities
3. UI Widgets.
4. Open App Stores vs iTune (a clear monopoly)

Copied? You are smoking crack!. And believe what Steve Jobs said. There is no basis to this. Google develops Android. It is 100% genuine using Linux as a starting point. Do what you want but speak the truth and not wild accusations.
65. flamencoguy (Posts: 107; Member since: 04 Aug 2012)
And you did not even know what JB is. So you don't know that is is copied. Quote your source !

A lot of people critiqued the hell out of the SGIII and some people who own wish that it was built slightly better with better materials and a better design, some even saying that its a step backwards from the SGII's design. And look how well the device is doing.... From the rumored pictures of the Note 2, the designs is going to be pretty damn similar to the original Note, and the Note 2 is most likely going to be a great seller also. Why is there so much complaining about the iPhone's design? These images are AT LEAST an average design, maybe even a little above.
I'm awaiting the new iPhone, so thanks for your wishes. As long as this iPhone is not an "S" version, I think it will be a pretty solid choice for anyone out there looking for a new phone, we'll just have to see. I will be missing some cool features in JB, but there's also a lot to love about iOS too. You've made your decision to go with Android, so you should give others the space to make their own decision. I love how Android users advocate choice and deciding what you want in a phone, but then they attack users who do just that. Oh the hypocrisy!

I agree Android is the way to customize things and much more. but, when it comes to smoothness no one can compete with iPhone. Dont blindly down vote this comment
6. frydaexiii (Posts: 1443; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
Yeah, say that to project butter...Androids are just as smoother if you use espier launcher or iLauncher, but who in their right mind would do that?
7. Cerberusa2a (Posts: 33; Member since: 24 May 2012)
While iphone is very smooth with opening files and scrolling etc. I have been using jelly bean recently and i got to say, apple has its hands full with this android update.
8. ilia1986 (unregistered)
As an iPhone 4 user - I've noticed a relatively high amount of lag ever since iOS 5. Even after closing all "background" apps - there is lag when going to the spotlight, for instance. Or when installing an app and scolling the home screen. Such things didn't exist in iOS 4.x
12. frydaexiii (Posts: 1443; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
I noticed that in my friend's half-a-year old iPhone 4 and 4Ss too. Playing games like Infinity Blade lags like hell, and on some of the worst iPhones, even scrolling Facebook lags.
23. TROLL (banned) (Posts: 4851; Member since: 13 Apr 2012)
And also it lags playing 1080p. And can't open YouTube desktop website!

How about knowingly downvote? Jellybean is running pretty smooth on my Dinc2. Don't speak for everyone and expect to not be downvoted.

Why wouldn't it be, the OS is half-Baked, doesn't run any apps at the back ground, the phone was made to launch just apps.....
26. Raymond_htc (Posts: 430; Member since: 06 Apr 2012)
I read the comment. i dont blindly down voted this! what u said is utter crap. S3 and S2 are soooo smooth.. and with project butter for jelly bean, android phones in the future will be as smooth as the iPhone- or even more smoother. :)

Ok, that's just what the Galaxy SII LTE is to the Galaxy SII, larger screen with added LTE & NFC (That is if they even put LTE in). Come on, I know Apple fans always have low expectations when it comes to their products so they don't seem disappointed when the product is underwhelming , but this is just sad & pathetic. I still wonder how a company who releases minor updates as major product still have a running in the current market, idiots who still buy their crap is my guess.
17. nicholassss (Posts: 368; Member since: 10 May 2012)
The downside with this is not that its a bigger screen, the idea of stretching it and having it all long and narrow and just... weird looking.
20. TROLL (banned) (Posts: 4851; Member since: 13 Apr 2012)
+1 from me, and agree.....!
40. Bluesky02 (Posts: 1439; Member since: 05 Dec 2011)
I think it is from the expectation of perfect. Since they already know every versions are gonna look same there's a perfectionist mentality like "next version is going to be perfect"
16. ObjectivismFTW (Posts: 211; Member since: 03 Jul 2012)
Ahh, Apple once again working their iMagic -- selling incrementally updated products as "revolutionary" innovations.
Almost like the Call of Duty in the smartphone/tablet industry.

Bought an android phone few months ago and I tested thanks to the advice from fandroid... It AWESOME!!!
However, you cannot stop me to buy this iPhone tho, collecting the iPhone is always my hobby since 2007...
Android is awesome, but it will never be as cool as iPhone. I'm saving money to buy this, and please fandroid, stop bashing on every Apple article would ya :)

This reply is being composed on an iPad3 with iOS v. 5.1.1. The OS is the same on the iPhone 4/4S. Sorry, but iOS v. 5.1.1 is soo outdated compared to Android ICS or JB. iOS v. 6 is just an incremental upgrade over 5. The same can be said for the iPhone 5 (or whatever Apple ends up calling it) - an incremental upgrade. Certainly not worth eating a contract termination fee on top of the cost of the phone.

But Apple start to use its own maps :)
I can't wait to try it :)
39. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
When you try the Apple maps app, be sure to try it in a place you are familiar with. It would ruin your experience if you got lost using the maps app. It will take a while before the maps app is comparable to what Google has. Meanwhile, Googe will continue to improve Googe Maps....
41. wendygarett (unregistered)
Lol so you're sayin Apple will not improve its maps for the rest of our live? Lolol
42. Savage (unregistered)
No no! They will improve it. Just one update a year. Like they did with Siri.
43. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
And in the 1 year that Apple update its maps app, Google will probably release at least 2 significant Maps updates. They (Google) just released an update that provides the ability to store maps on the handset - great if you are going to an area with no cellular coverage.... Try doing that with the Apple maps app.
67. flamencoguy (Posts: 107; Member since: 04 Aug 2012)
And now who is copying whom?
I hope Google can sue Apple.
As you see Apple originates very little but mostly copies something other people started. They bought Siri, They did not develop it themselves. Check it out for yourself. I am not lying.
They will come up with something called Apple Earth next? What a bunch of low life copycats.

I don't care !! I want that iPhone!!! I do I do I do!!!
33. technut (Posts: 62; Member since: 03 Aug 2012)
Is it just me, or is a 4 inch display too small? I have a droid RAZR with a 4.3" display and just wish it was a tad bit bigger. I'm not trying to put down apple, nor am I blind... but come on, make a phone with a 4.5 - 5 inch display preferably closer to 5. Most people use their phones to do more than make phone calls these days.
37. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
Also, with the dinky display, the iPhone will never have a 720p display resolution. Just so that the user can text one-handed (Woopee! that must be better than sex...). Bet you never knew that you really needed to be able to text one-handed, did you?
Apple knows better than you do what you really need....

Apple will sell millions of this phone just like samsung sold millions of galaxy s3. Apple users will definitely buy this one just like android users patronize the s3. There's no variety on android handsets anymore, it's only samsung market.

Question? Why is it android users hate apple so much, but feel they have to come on all the apple articles to post that hate? If u hate apple so much y even click on the article, or do u jus want to insult apple users with stupid comments? Just asking.

Just makes no sense bro. I never see apple users patrolling android articles to bash them,and the android users. It also won't make a difference to apples users either. Just wasted time I guess

Looks almost exactly like the iPhone4S, not really much to see OMG, IT HAS A 4 INCH SCREEN, I GOTTA GET IT, EVEN IF I HAVE TO STAND IN LINE FOR 3 WEEKS!
That sums it up, it'll sell millions, even though.

For years, transit honchos in Trenton plowed billions into railroad connections, stations and improvements in North Jersey, while sending little South Jersey's way.
Years ago, they had sound reasons. The north's densely packed suburbs were where the traffic jams and occasional gridlock were.
But time and development have marched on. And traffic congestion has moved steadily south. Morning jams are no strangers to commuters on Routes 130, 70, 42, 55 and elsewhere in Burlington, Camden and Gloucester Counties.
So, New Jersey Transit is putting together an estimated $1.4 billion plan to run 37 miles of train service on old freight-line rights-of-way or new roadside corridors (Three alternative routes are being debated.)

the actual knockout wasn't like that though - it was a different type of trick. if you listen to marquez interview after the fight he even breaks it down for you... they knew manny had something to prove. that he would try for the big KO. So when manny landed something of significance in the sixth marquez started moving away, stopped countering for a little while, invited manny to take risks. it was all about getting him in the perfect position for a counter - a position he would never normally adopt. how often in these fights have you seen pacquiao rushing his face forward in that sort of area around an opponents body? never. the combination of having a point to prove and thinking he had a chance of a series defining ko, something to quiet the doubters and prove his "greatness", all this led to him being completely careless.
as a fan of boxing both of those punches were things of beauty. marquez said the advantage he had was that he was smarter than pacquiao and my word did he prove it.

I guess we'll have to disagree for the time being....saying all these nuances of subtle moves by Marquez doesn't dismiss the explosive power he showed last night...it was too much..i've seen him hit pacquiao a bunch of times while pacquiao was going in there guns blazing...(look at the second fight)...and Pacquiao was never hurt that badly before...never..

Van Duzer Pinot Noir Estate 2011
$31.95 Regular
2006 Vintage Tasting Notes
Van Duzer Pinot Noir Estate 2006 is drawn from seven Pinot Noir clones, each contributing to the whole. The deep purple robe of this wine gives an initial indication of the depth of this exceptional vintage. A complex nose of black cherry, cocoa, tobacco and spice introduces flavors that coat the mouth with deep, ripe fruit. A structure of balanced acidity and soft, integrated tannins extends the harmony in a rich, long finish. - the winery
Early warmth in the 2006 growing season produced uniformly rich, ripe fruit across our 75 acre vineyard. At harvest, hot, dry conditions threatened to send sugars and alcohol levels past their prime. However, the nine clones of Pinot Noir planted in the vineyard weathered the hot spell in good form, retaining their fresh fruit flavors and balance. Van Duzer�s farming method is precisely tailored to the climatic conditions at each vineyard site and to the characteristics of the clone, allowing the winery to allocate resources according to the needs of the vines in each micro-section. At the time of harvest�October 3 through October 9�sugar levels attained between 23 and 24 brix and the grapes maintained a good acid/pH balance. - the winery

For lovers of Historic Hotels
Elected Historic Hotel of Switzerland in 2001, this hotel radiates 1859 nobility and alpine elegance. Original furnishing in the rooms and lounges; the dining room displays 19th century ceiling painting. Large collection of original paintings. Frequent events with a cultural and historic background, such as concerts, talks and themed hikes.
Certified by ICOMOS
Historic hotel of the year 2001
Originally built in 1859, this hotel already had its first extensions done only ten years later by the renowned hotel architect Louis Maillard from Vevey. On a terrace overlooking the mountain road, the Bella Tola embodies a typical alpine hotel of the 19th century that, thanks to further additions, has developed into a Grand Hotel. It remained in the hands of the same family for three generations, after which it was changed into a shareholder company before finally falling into the possession of Anne-Françoise and Claude Buchs. The new owners have restored the house to some of its original luster, which had been lost little by little through the different phases of transformation. Today, the overall historic appearance is kept intact, with the old floors and windows having been stylishly renovated. The personal involvement of the current owners is inimitable, and a stay at this gem of a hotel in the Val d'Anniviers is a real experience.

Lance Armstrong Admits To Using Drugs. Who Will You Let Your Kids Look Up To?Buzz Bishop
Lance Armstrong was the closest thing I had to an idol.
I can't describe how I have felt for the past 18 months when I finally came to the conclusion that Lance was a cheater, and lying about it.
It was an interview Tyler Hamilton did with 60 Minutes that finally convinced me. The news hit me like the day you found out George Michael was gay. I was speechless. I mean, I probably knew all along, but when I figured it out, it hurt.
Then the interview with Oprah, where Lance finally stopped lying and admitted he used banned substances to win. So now it's not just supposition. It's real. And the frustration is back.
The thing that inspired me about Armstrong was his take no prisoners approach on the course. His huge comeback from insurmountable odds to dominate his sport and his endless commitment to give back were things I would often think about.
I took time out from a honeymoon in 2005 to watch the start of a Tour de France stage in Troyes, France (that's the pic I took at the left). An entire day on the train and waiting in the town for a 4 second glimpse of Armstrong leading the peleton out of town.
I wear yellow, a lot of yellow. Sure it helps that my name is Buzz and I have an affinity for wearing black and yellow as "my colours," but I was also a huge supporter of Armstrong's Wear Yellow initiative.
Wristbands. Shoes, Jackets. T shirts. Hats. Gym bags. Jerseys. I spent hundreds, if not thousands on them all.
All of it on a lie. The feelings I have about Lance's betrayal make me think about who my sons will look up to as they grow up. Already they have posters of athletes in their room, and will role-play as them when we're playing sports at the park.
We all seek mentors in life. People who will inspire us to reach our potential, and beyond it. For those who are passionate about athletics, it's a natural thing to copy someone who is already successful. We can invest a lot of hope and dreams (and cash) into our idols oly to see it come crashing down. Just look at the resume of some of the biggest athletes and celebrities in our era:
Kobe is an alleged rapist. Tiger is an adulterer. Kim Kardashian is a porn star. Chris Brown is abusive. Lance Armstong is a liar and a cheat.
Who's left? Hopefully you.
Take another celebrity's fall from grace as a personal challenge to be the hero your children can look up to. Be the mentor they need. Be the person they want to be when they grow up.
There was a day I would have beamed if my children would have said "Dad, I want to be like Tiger, or Lance." Not today. No longer.

Shaktimaan (Hindi: शक्तिमान) is a fictional Indian superhero from the television series of the same name produced by Mukesh Khanna and directed by Dinkar Jani. Around 400 episodes of the series originally aired on Doordarshan, India's national television network, from 27 September 1997 (barring the introductory episode on 27 September 1997) to 27 March 2005, on Sundays at 12 noon IST. The telecast slot, however was shifted to 9:30 a.m. for the last episodes. It has also aired on Pogo[1] in English, Tarang in Oriya and Chutti TV in Tamil, and repeated its Hindi telecast on STAR Utsav. Mukesh Khanna plays the roles of Shaktimaan, the main protagonist and his alter ego Pandit Gangadhar Vidyadhar Mayadhar Omkarnath Shastri, a photographer for the newspaper Aaj Ki Aawaz. Shaktimaan is depicted as a human who has attained superhuman strength and power through deep meditation and attaining control over five elements of life. Kitu Gidwani, and later Vaishnavi Mahant, and later Shruti Shetty plays the role of Geeta Vishwas, a reporter in the series who loves Shaktimaan. Surendra Pal plays the role of Tamraj Kilvish, the main antagonist in the series. The series started a franchise on the character. In May 2016, Mukesh Khanna announced that the show will be renewed and he will reprise his role of Shaktimaan.
Since the dawn of mankind, humanity was at peace until the arrival of Kali Yuga. Since then, greed and hatred has taken over humanity and has been deteriorating it for past 6000 years. To end this, a mystical sect of saints known as "Suryanshis" chose a man to rise up against all odds and defeat the evil prevailing within society. He was taught the way to energize the 7 chakras of body through Kundalini Yoga that helped him get mystical and supernatural powers. During his training, he also conducted the ritual of death in order to get total control over his powers by entering the holy fire and immersing his physical body in it. When the five natural elements of life, fire, earth, water, wind and sky invigorated his body, he gains superpowers and becomes a Superhuman. At last, he takes a pledge to finish corruption and injustice in society and fight the evil prevailing in the world. Due to his heroic initial works, he is named Shaktimaan by a reporter, Geeta Vishwas. Later, it is revealed that Shaktimaan was the rebirth of Shri Satya who had formed the Suryanshi Sect after the war of the Mahabharat 5,000 years ago.
His alter-ego is a funny geek named Pandit Gangadhar Vidyadhar Mayadhar Omkarnath Shastri, who works as a photographer in a daily newspaper office to maintain his secret identity as Shaktimaan.
Shaktimaan's nemesis is Tamraj Kilvish, who is the living embodiment of the evil and dark forces of the world.
Shaktimaan is another common human being, but reincarnation of Shri Satya, but has got his internal spiritual powers ignited with the continuous and typical practice of Hindu philosophical and cultural values system and activities like Yog Sadhna and Meditation. Also, he follows the morals and ethical values of truth, non-violence, and values stated in books like the Bhagavad Gita.

Shaktimaan received powers from seven gurus who trained and blessed him with "yogic shakti which was natural power." He was the chosen warrior against evil by siddha gurus of a cult named Suryavanshi. They are followers of the star Sun. As part of training, he trained with Kundalini Yoga to awake the 7 chakras of body and gain 'supernatural' powers from them. To gain complete control over his powers he performed the ritual of death. However, this did not cause death but made him more alive than when he was a normal man. He also performed Yajna in which he entered the fire himself and dissolved his body in fire. Then, the five elements of life, i.e. fire, wind, water, earth, sky revived his body giving him special powers from them. Thus after leaving his mortal body he was given a superhuman form to fight against the evil in the world as Shaktimaan.[2]
After Shaktimaan was created he set out to destroy his archenemy Kilvish. But, as the Mahaguru (Tom Alter) explained, Kilvish can only be defeated after evil is destroyed. Shaktimaan's mission is to destroy the sin within people, not the sinned people. Shaktimaan's adventures show him pursuing justice and saving his friends while Kilvish and his minions plot to defeat him.
Shaktimaan has superhuman powers which lie inside his body in his seven chakras of Kundalini attained through meditation. Shaktimaan worships God through the symbol Om. Truthfulness is his motto. He can even separate his body into five different bodies of fire, wind, water, earth and sky.[3] He is an expert, skilled and intelligent fighter and has fought with super-skilled enemies. He possesses physical powers like unlimited speed (up to the speed of light), strength, durability as well as psychic powers like telepathy, teleportation, telekinesis etc. Although he possesses godlike powers, his only weakness is a crystal (Papmani) possessed by Tamraj Kilvish which can be used to defeat and even kill him. This makes him powerless because it is filled with the evil of the world and is the source of the black powers. But he regains his strength after the crystal is taken away from him. He can be killed if the crystal is placed in front of him and he is treated violently to the verge of death.
Shaktimaan's powers are virtually limitless. He can do practically anything he imagines. The only limit to his powers is his own belief in himself and his knowledge of how to manifest his powers. His powers come from his chakras. (Note: Although we'll call them chakras in the vedas, in the series dialogue they will also be called energy centers.)
The seven chakras in his body which give him powers are:
- Energy Chakra (1): This chakra gives Shaktimaan super strength enabling him to fly, shoot fire from his hands, emit rays from his fingertips, blow a stream of freezing air, or send out protective force fields which nothing can penetrate (provided he can maintain his willpower and not give in). Shaktimaan's strength allows him to physically penetrate anything and lift any object.
- Creative Chakra (2): This chakra gives Shaktimaan the power to manifest things out of thin air, but they can be unstable and comically fall apart or cause other problems if Shaktimaan is distracted and loses concentration.
- Astral Chakra (3): This chakra gives Shaktimaan the power to control his astral body (a semi-transparent, ethereal duplicate of himself) which can fly, walk through walls, spy on others, see inside objects, etc.
- Heart Chakra (4): This chakra gives Shaktimaan the power to control the will of others, but only for good. He can will people to do the right thing, see the error in their ways, or simply make someone buy him lunch. This power is most useful when Shaktimaan needs to stop someone who is under the control of Kilvish from doing evil.
- Vibration Chakra (5): This chakra gives Shaktimaan the power to control all types of vibrations, including sound waves, light waves, healing warmth, etc. He can also use it to hear ultrasonic sounds, and can speed up the vibrations of his own atoms allowing him to transport himself in space or time. This can be very useful for getting out of dangerous situations, or going back to yesterday to watch a TV show he forgot to watch.
- Psychic Chakra (6): This chakra gives Shaktimaan the power of the "third eye" which enables him to read minds and see anywhere in the world at any distance. He can sense impending danger and see things at any corner of the world.
Personal life[edit]
To avoid being an easy prey of Tamraj Kilvish, Shaktimaan adopted a different identity as Pandit Gangadhar Vidyadhar Mayadhar Omkarnath Shastri in the society. The character Gangadhar is completely opposite to that of Shaktimaan in all aspects e.g. appearance, intelligence while he speaks pure Hindi.Whenever he gets any important job to do, he says that he has written a book on it which had never been published. Staying in the society as a common person helped him to get knowledge about crime. He got a job of a photographer for the newspaper Aaj Ki Awaaz after being interviewed by Geeta Vishwas. After a few weeks, he became a co-reporter working with Geeta. Through a series of incidents and the fact that he could never capture a photo of Shaktimaan, Geeta came to know about the dual identity of Shaktimaan, which was previously known only to Suryanshis. After Aaj Ki Awaaz was shut down, Gangadhar became a Hindi professor at a junior college. Later, he left the college to work for a news channel KR TV with Geeta. Later story is edited by pogo channel
Main characters[edit]
Geeta Vishwas[edit]
Geeta Vishwas (Vaishnavi Mahant, previously Kitu Gidwani), the female lead in the serial, used to work as a brave news reporter in Aaj Ki Awaaz. She was the first to report about Shaktimaan in newspaper and named the superhero as Shaktimaan. Incidentally, she was the only reporter to get interviews of Shaktimaan as Gangadhar used to accompany her as photographer in missions. She died in a crash planned by Dr. Jaikal.[4] As Shaktimaan loved her, he brought her back to life again using his power which resulted in losing his powers temporarily due to his against the nature actions. Geeta came to know about this after Shaktimaan regained power with the vow that he will never repeat the same mistake again. To ensure this, she planned to leave the country. In the lead up to that situation, she got to know about Shaktimaan's dual character for the third time. But unlike first two occasions, Shaktimaan didn't erase it from Geeta's memory this time as she promised to keep it secret forever.[5]
One year later‡, after Aaj Ki Awaaz was shut down, its staff members persuaded Geeta in returning to India to join them to release Shaktimaan comics. Later she teamed up with Gangadhar again and joined KR TV[6] as a television reporter while working for the comics simultaneously.
‡ – When the journalist character Geeta Vishwas was written out of the series, fan protests prompted the producers to bring her back.[7]
Main enemies[edit]
- Tamraj Kilvish
Tamraj Kilvish is Shaktimaan's archenemy. Tamraj means King of Darkness (tama = darkness, raj = king). He has lived 6000 years and is the source of evil in the world. He intends to rule the world by spreading darkness, hatred, sin and evil. It is said that the source of his strength is one-half of the "Shakti Punj" (the half which is referred to as "Paap Punj") which he managed to retain after he originally obtained the entire Shakti Punj by deceit from Shri Satya (Satya means truth), the founder of the Suryavanshi. However, it is also mentioned that the source of his strength is the evil that is committed by people in this world.[8]
It was later revealed that only Shri Satya can kill Tamraj Kilvish. After a death-defying adventure, Shaktimaan was told that he is the rebirth of Shri Satya. Shri Satya had given the exact time of the child's birth and the place before he died about 6000 years ago. Tamraj also knows this and this is the main reason he is frightened by the appearance of Shaktimaan as he knows that only Shaktimaan can kill Tamraj. He murdered Shaktimaan's parents and his adoptive father, Pandit Vidyadhar Shastri.[9] He and his minions plot to kill him but always fail. His minions include Electric-man (who can shoot lightning bolts from his body), Stone-man (who can shoot stones from his body), Plastica (who can stretch any part of her body), Dr. Jackal (an evil scientist) and others. Dr. Jackal has helped Kilvish in his various schemes by cloning Shaktimaan and also by turning aliens against him.[10]
In the television series, Kilvish is often treated as the personification of darkness itself even though he was once a human being who later becomes very powerful and commits many evil deeds. In an attempt to become immortal, he left his mortal body and took an ethereal body which can't be killed but Shaktimaan is told that he has to kill all the evil in the world to destroy Tamraj's ethereal body. Kilvish's trademark quote is "Andhera Kaayam Rahe" (May Darkness Prevail), which is also used by his followers.
Kilvish's character evolves as the series progresses. In the beginning episodes of Shaktimaan, his face is never shown and his voice is different from the voice that he uses in the later episodes of Shaktimaan, in which his role is played by Surendra Pal. Later his face deforms to become a distorted wolf-like face.[11]
- Dr. Jaikal
Dr. Jaikal is an evil scientist who works for Kilvish. His earlier intention was not that of becoming evil, but when he was denied scholarship for research, Kilvish provided him with funds and labs, thus making him a supporter of Kilvish & an evil scientist.[12] Though he is overall a brilliant scientist, his specialisation is cloning and various energy rays. His creations against Shaktimaan include Kekda Man (a clone formed by fusing cells of Crab & human), followed by Jonk Jonkaa (a clone using leech), an evil clone of Shaktimaan, Plastica, Lightman, 3D image, Super-heroine Sunanda and others. He also invented a height control solution and fictional EC- rays.[13][14][15][16][17][18] [19]
- Sahab
Sahab is an organised criminal and drug lord. Like Shaktimaan he also possesses double identity, the other being that of a law-abiding industrialist and Mayor, known as Kumar Ranjan. Except for Tamraj Kilvish (and later Dr. Jackal), no one knows that Sahab and Kumar Ranjan are the same person, thus making this his biggest strength. Through his criminal mind, Sahab keeps plotting ways to create trouble for Shaktimaan or to defame him and to find out about the real identity of Shaktimaan.[20]

Shaktimaan is the defender of the truth and justice as well as a role model for his television audience, even going so far as to lecture viewers on hygiene, patriotism and education.
When Shaktimaan first aired on Doordarshan, there were a lot of controversies created as children set themselves on fire or jumped off buildings hoping that Shaktimaan would save them.[33] In an effort to promote responsible behaviour among children, Mukesh Khanna spent a substantial part of the airtime in explaining to the children that the stunts shown on television were not real and should not be emulated.[34] Khanna also stated that most of the controversies were fake and were raised in media to undermine its popularity.[35]
Shaktimaan was one of the most popular and longest-running television series for Indian children on the Doordarshan channel.[36] In an interview with Nupur Rekhi of indiantelevision.com, Khanna told that, he has even received letters from the external affairs minister and then Prime Minister of India Atal Bihari Vajpayee saying that he has done a very good thing in choosing the role of Shaktimaan and keeping up with it. He has been featured in The Wall Street Journal on the front page reflecting on Shaktimaan's (and hence Khanna's) positive influence on children.
Later a series of comic books appeared featuring Shaktimaan and published in many Indian languages as well as English in association with Diamond Comics and Raj Comics. Shaktimaan merchandise like costumes, stickers, dolls, etc. were also introduced in the market.
In the wake of the 2001 Gujarat earthquake, Mukesh Khanna toured the affected areas in character as Shaktimaan topping morale and giving relief to people.

Big numbers highlight first days of Maple Grove Super Chevy Show

Comments Off on Big numbers highlight first days of Maple Grove Super Chevy Show
MOHNTON, Pa. (July 16) — The Maple Grove Super Chevy Show lived up to its pre-race billing Friday.
The annual event, traditionally the largest Chevy happening in the country, has already outdone itself, already drawing more race cars through tech inspection than competed here last year. The sixth event of the 10-race Super Chevy Show touring series features drag racing, a car show and swap meet on Saturday and Sunday.
"This event has always produced the largest numbers on the Super Chevy Show schedule," said Lex Dudas, Maple Grove Raceway vice president and general manager. "Once again, the Chevy fans of Pennsylvania didn't let us down. We had 561 cars at the track on Thursday and Friday, and more are expected Saturday.
"I think it says a lot to what this event means to this region. This is once again going to be the top Chevy event in the country. We're expecting a great show for the rest of the weekend."
Friday's numbers were also high for the swap meet and the vendors along the manufacturer's midway. There were also a large amount of car show participants on hand, with that number expected to increase on Saturday.
Saturday's show will also feature a bonus sportsman race, and a pro show with the GM Outlaw Pro Mods invading famed Maple Grove Raceway with two qualified fields of eight cars. The new outlaw Pro-Mod format marks a return to the quartermile action at the Super Chevy Show. It will feature two ladders, one for normal-aspirated entries and one for supercharged Pro Mods.
Also on hand are the jet funny cars First Strike and Top Secret, along with the jet dragsters of Queen of Diamonds and Beast from the East, who will square off to settle their own horsepower rivalry. Bob Hall's Astrovan Wheelstander, always a crowd favorite, will also be hand.
The top off for Saturday will be an appearance from NHRA legend Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins, who will pick his Top 10 from the Show and Shine area of the Car Show competition. This will be an added feature to the Super Chevy Magazine Editor's Choice Top 10 Awards as Super Chevy Magazine will be on site gathering information for feature stories, as well as taking photos of cars for their upcoming publications.
More information can be found at superchevyshow.com.
Gates open: 7 a.m.

MOHNTON, Pa. — The Super Chevy Show offers a little bit of everything for everyone.
Each of the 10 events on the series' 30th anniversary tour includes sportsman and pro show drag racing, an unbeatable car show and a flea market that is a parts collector's dream.
The Maple Grove Raceway Super Chevy Show, scheduled Friday, July 16 to Sunday, July 18, will put the swap meet genre on center stage with perhaps the biggest parts event in the country.
If you're a car enthusiast who is looking for that special part for your 1961 Impala, or the crowning piece for your '67 Camaro, then the Maple Grove Raceway Super Chevy Show is the place to be, because chances are they will have it.
Some 30 vendors are already scheduled to be on hand in addition to Super Chevy Show sponsors Gearstar Performance Transmissions, GM Performance Division, Original Parts Group, RacingJunk.com, Super Chevy Magazine, and Featherlite.
All will be coming to the Northeast, which in the past has been the top Chevy lovers event in the country.
"There are always pretty good shows," said Roger Ausley, whose Ausley Chevelle Parts will again be on hand. "It's always a really good show, sometimes better than Indy.
"Pennsylvania is a big car state and like I said, its a good show and the Pennsylvania boys always turn out."
A big list of vendors are expected to be there. They include Super Chevy Magazine, BME Photography, Renegade, Trailer Toad, Green Mountain Monogram, Minnesota Pneumatic, Jax Wax, Stealth Covers, K&R Camaro, Checkered Racing, Lehigh Valley Chevelle, Big J

Thank You, Gene Rubin & Walter Swanbon
I have grown increasingly fond of exhibits that seem like a welcome breath of fresh air. Hence I extend my thanks to Gene Rubin of Gene Rubin Audio and Walter Swanbon of Fidelis AV, whose system provided my first listen to the fine Stein Music Aventurin cartridge ($6495). Listening to the Quartet Italiano play Mozart, I was delighted by the very warm, civilized, and totally enjoyable sound of a system that also included the Palmer 2.5 turntable ($11,990), the Stein Music Harmonizer System, and LFD photo stage ($1895) and NCSE MKII hand-assembled amplifier ($7495), and Harbeth Monitor 30.1 loudspeakers (starting at $5990/pair). I didn't hear the DSD-capable Bricasti M1 DAC ($9995) this time around, but my audition of the pre-DSD version was so convincing that I considered adding it to my reference system.

Regarding (Letter: Editorial cartoon on pope was demeaning, Dec. 19, amarillo.com), Mr. (John) Lyne seems to be confused about the purpose of the opinion page in the Amarillo Globe-News.
It is my understanding that this section of the newspaper is for the expression of different views — not just the personal views held by the editorial page editor.
It is, therefore, a compliment to the editorial page editor and the AGN staff that Mr. Lyne cannot tell if you are Democrat or Republican, Protestant or Catholic, etc.
Keep up the good work!

David Beckham made a secret trip to West Africa's Sierra Leone last weekend on behalf of the international children's charity UNICEF.
His visit to the impoverished nation – where child deaths are the highest in the world – is designed to publicize the horrors of growing up in a country once wracked by civil war.
"We can't turn a blind eye to the tens of thousands of young children who die every day in the developing world," he said in a statement released Tuesday. "One in four children dies before reaching their fifth birthday – it's shocking and tragic especially when the solutions are simple – things like vaccinations against measles or using a mosquito net to reduce the chance of getting malaria."
Beckham, 32, signed on to help UNICEF years ago, while he was playing for Manchester United. He made his first foreign trip to Thailand in 2001.
"Saving ... children's lives is a top priority for UNICEF," he said, "and as an Ambassador I hope I can help to draw attention to this issue across the world."
Although this is Beckham's first high profile engagement, the father-of-three has long helped under-privileged children. "He works a lot with charity and has his own with [wife Victoria Beckham]," says a friend. "A lot of the work he does is behind the scenes and he doesn't want publicity. But this trip is about making people aware of the issue to help funding."
The soccer star – who, during his off-season, has watched his wife perform in more than ten Spice Girl concerts in London – returns to Beverly Hills next month to resume training with the Los Angeles Galaxy.

I'm only familiar with one a friend has. The trigger was contacting the guard and the sear still hadn't let go and the safety was pressed into some kind of pot metal part that wore out and I eventually replaced the entire trigger group for him. Wiath a scope it seems to make a good squirrel gun.
December 7, 2006, 12:17 PM
My father had one. I found it very accurate.
Had to put an O ring on the mag tube to keep tension on it to keep it from rotating and falling out. No big deal.
Trigger pull was terrible.
December 7, 2006, 12:24 PM
Probably the first gun I bought with my own money. I abused it terribly, and it just kept on shootin'. I traded it off years ago but wish I hadn't.
December 7, 2006, 02:27 PM
to see if I can make it work. Absolutely will not feed; all bullet noses impact above the breech face for a tip-up jam. AND the bolt cannot be cycled unless the trigger has been pulled. Yes, that's right: there's no way to eject an unfired round. He's not returning my calls; I think his wife just wants the gun out of the house. I'm inclined to destroy it, unless anybody has some ideas for a fix.

Answer: You ordered a Target e-GiftCard for your grandson, which is a basic gift card minus the plastic. You can find the terms and conditions of the card on Target's site, which are pretty interesting, even if you're just an average customer. Among the zingers: Regardless of the stated cash value of the card, it has a cash value is 1/10 of one cent.
I'd love to see someone try to redeem that!
I mention the terms because nowhere in them does Target guarantee it will sent a purchased e-GiftCard to a customer within a set amount of time. It could just pocket your money and send your grandson the certificate when he graduates from high school. Not that it would, but it could.
Calling Target was a good first step, and following up with an email was even better. You need a paper trail because you may have to prove that you've done your best to fix a problem later on. The correspondence will prove it. Only Target records your phone calls — for "quality assurance" purposes, I'm sure.
Target's advertising promises its e-GiftCard's are a "faster" way of purchasing store credit, but not for you or your grandson. It's unclear what caused the delay. It might have been a glitch in Target's system or it's possible that you gave the company an incorrect email address. Target wouldn't say.
If emails sent through the Target website aren't doing the trick, you might want to appeal this to an executive. I'd send a quick email to Kathryn Tesija, Target's executive vice president of merchandising. I'm sure she'd be more than happy to help you. Her email address is email@example.com.
I contacted Target on your behalf and it issued a new gift card six hours later.


text: This morning I knew exactly what I wanted for breakfast… oatmeal! But not just any oatmeal. I had this See's Candy butterscotch lollipop. The ingredients started out the way I usually make a batch of oatmeal, but this time I decided to mash the banana a bit. I also included some vanilla extract, stevia, and flaxseed (optional of course). So this morning I stirred my oats with the butterscotch lollipop instead of a spoon. I also mixed in the last of my jar of McCutcheon's pumpkin butter. Oh by the way… McCutcheon's is the best pumpkin butter I've had! Even the consistency is different from most pumpkin butters. For garnish I sprinkled some pumpkin seed granola. I wish this bowl could last forever. Unfortunately, I don't have another lollipop and that was the last of my pumpkin butter. Darned it!

Panic attacks and anxiety might arise in a person due to various reasons. While variation in hormone level due to menstrual cycle is the reason for this in women, it can happen due to other reasons like change in serotonin levels too. Here, we focus on some of the simple but effective methods that can be used to avoid panic attacks.
The scientists of the present day have come to a conclusion that panic attacks and anxiety disorders are owing to the imbalance in chemicals that occurs in the brain. Though it was termed as a mental disorder, some years back, studies have clearly shown that anxiety arises due to chemical and hormonal imbalance too. There are various medicines like Prozac in the market that claim to help reduce the chances of panic attack and anxiety, but the effectiveness of these are not very high. The reason for this is that they bring along side effects that might lead to suicidal thoughts and loneliness in the person who is suffering from panic attacks.
Treat panic attacks and anxiety with natural methods
Taking all these into consideration, the wisest thing to do would be to search for natural methods of cure for panic attacks. Here, we put down some of the natural methods that might be of great help in this regard.
- Go for a jog
One characteristic feature of panic attack is that it makes you feel like doing something drastic to get your mind off the emptiness in life. An excellent solution at this point would be to go for a run, as this kind of physical activity helps you refresh your mind and drives away the bad thoughts.
- Make use of pressure points
Sometimes, problems related to breathing might show up, when a person suffers from panic attacks and the best thing to do at this point of time would be to apply pressure on the breastbone or the sternum as it is more commonly known as. This eases the panic attack and helps you breathe normally.
- Keep your hands busy
Panic attacks can make people do the worst of things with their hands. While some people tend to scratch themselves, some even hurt their hands by hitting it against something during anxiety. By making sure that you have your hands busy, such circumstances can be avoided greatly. Playing with a stress ball would be the best solution to such problems.
- Use a metronome
Metronomes would be the best solutions to stabilize and calm you down during a panic attack. By using them, you can control your breathing pattern and thereby make sure that the impact of the panic attacks and anxiety is greatly nullified.
- Choose natural supplements
Herbs and other natural remedies like St. John's Wort are excellent solutions for panic attacks and depression. They are the best alternatives for artificial supplements and do not have any side effects also.
Panic attacks and anxiety due to emotional issues – relax and think
If you are sure about the fact that panic attacks in you is not owing to chemical imbalance, then try to figure out the situations or the places where you suffer from panic attacks. This would help you keep away from such circumstances and stay safe from panic attacks.

The records you see below are part of the Too Much Rock Single Series – a collection of 45 RPM singles that marry great songs with great bands all for the love of vinyl. Each old-school two-song single features one unique song paired with one cover chosen by the site. We press 500 limited edition copies and then simply give them away to the bands. We lose money. Bands make a little. Vinyl lives. Everyone wins.
I've been getting a lot of questions about the series, so: Yes, it's always a local band. No, I'm not taking suggestions. No, once they're gone they're gone. Yes, I just give them to the band and they can do whatever they want with them. And, whenever I feel like it. For anything else visit the about page and drop me an email. I love to talk about this project.
The Uncouth! kick off volume 4 of the Singles Series with "KC United." This anthemic number is an old-school call for unity between the punk and skinhead scenes and celebrates KC's rich history. The B-side features a powerful take of Slade's 1972 smash "Gudbuy T'Jane" that retains all the glam stomp of the original. Pick up a copy directly from the band.
Reviews and write ups: review (Kansas City to Larwrence Vinyl Records), Uncovering The Uncouth! (Oi! of America), review (The Deli)
Volume 3 of the Singles Series features Josh Berwanger (of The Anniversary & Only Childen) with new power pop jam "Oh Bis!" on the A-side, and The Jags' 1978 should-have-been hit "Back Of My Hand" on the reverse. The single features a must see retro paper sleeve created by alternate movie poster guru Jay Shaw.
The second installment of the singles series features Kansas City's Rev Gusto. The young band's brilliant blending of power pop and shaggy mod shines on A side "Still there," while the band nails the jittery emotion of Graham Parker's "Local Girls" on the B side. The limited-edition 45 is available directly from the band.
The singles series kicks off with Schwervon, a Kansas-via-NYC band (how often does that happen?) featuring guitarist Matt Roth and drummer Nan Turner. "Landlocked" is the first song written by the duo after moving to Kansas City, so it's only right that it appears on this release. Soon after witnessing the band's blending of Roth's ferious rock with Turner's fearless ingenuity, I knew that I wanted them to tackle the Raincoats' off-kilter 1979 anthem "Off Duty Trip." To get the 45 you'll have to talk to the band – I gave away all my copies.
The second single in the series will be released in early 2014. Another is planned for Record Store Day (April 19th). Sorry no peeking, I wont announce the band or song until I actually have the single in my hand. Call it superstition.

Today's NFL preview capsule, Sept. 19
Chiefs (2-0) at Eagles (1-1)
- Time: 8:25 p.m. NFL Network
- Opening line: Eagles by 3
- John Dudley's take: The Chiefs come in with the league's third-ranked defense, allowing 248 yards per game and only 18 points after ranking 20th overall last season. That's a little deceiving since they've played the horrid Jaguars and the Cowboys, whose 36 points in Week 1 were due in large part to six Giants turnovers. Kansas City hasn't faced anything like Chip Kelly's offense, which is averaging 477 yards and 31.5 points.
- Dudley's pick: Eagles 31-30.

You may feel somewhat downhearted today as you go about your daily routine, and the unpredictability of your sadness can weigh heavily on your heart. However, try not to let your dejection shape your perspective in a negative way. If you take a cue from your mood and withdraw into the comforting embrace of solitude, you will likely find you can see the issues underlying your mindset more clearly. How you respond to the insights you receive will likely differ depending on your unique circumstances. Today can be eye-opening, provided you feel comfortable enough with your emotions to examine them closely and without fear.
There is no reason to fear sadness, as it is simply another emotion in our larger palette of feelings. Sadness can serve many purposes in our lives—it lets us know when something is not quite right or helps us remember the importance of solitude in our lives. We tend to become sad when one or more of our basic emotional needs is not being met. If we treat sadness as an indication that we should look critically at the way our lives have been unfolding as of late, it can help us determine what we need to do to regain our usual vigor and enthusiasm. Ignoring sadness nets us little in the end. It is only when we confront it directly and honor the role it plays in our existence that it fulfills its larger purpose. You will find that your sad mood helps you better understand yourself today when you acknowledge it directly.

Will this product affect my brightness?
- Asked by Braiden V from Calgary
- on 6-May-2014
I've just got this filter today. I was bit worried about the reduced brightness at first as the filt I've just got this filter today. I was bit worried about the reduced brightness at first as the filter appears to be virtually much darker than I expected. However, when I put it on, it doesn't seem to affect much. I have the brightness slightly less than halfway in a room with normal light and it is more than enough for me. Note that I use the matt side (as I hate glare and reflection). Would have loved to compare it side by side with the glossy one but don't think there's a big difference. All in all, the filter doesn't bother me at all with the brightness.
