Police are on the hunt for thieves who stole copper wiring from a business in Berks County.
The break-in happened sometime between March 27 and April 6 at the former location of Northeast Building Systems, 5 East Pointe Dr., in Cumru Township, police said.
The thieves, police said, managed to get inside the unoccupied building undetected because its alarm system was temporarily bypassed during renovations.
The thieves removed approximately 3,000 feet of heavy copper wiring that measured between 5/8" and 1" in diameter, said police, adding that the damage and replacement costs totaled approximately $300,000.
Anyone with information about the break-in is asked to call the Cumru Township Police Department at 610-777-9595 or Crime Alert Berks County at 877-373-9913.

Ok somehow I fixed it... or it just started working again.
Craziest part... I have screws left over
Not sure what did it, but I took it apart, down to the motherboard shielding. Didn't take that off because I didn't see the point. Screwed everything back together and hooked it up.
When I turned it on for the first time, I didn't have the A/V cables (standard yellow red white) plugged into the PS3 or the TV. I held the power button for a complete power cycle.
The second time I plugged in the cables, turned it on holding the power down. After the reset beep, still holding the power, I hit the eject button with the same hand. (index = power, thumb = eject) Low and behold the screen popped white and black lines for a second like it was just getting a blank signal. Then the start up music played and the dashboard popped up!!
The second time I turned it on, I got the music and green and black squares as if the video card had died. (or is dieing)
BUUUUUUUUT The third time I turned it on everything worked great. I tried loading a game and it works.
Anyway, hope this works for other people. I'd just try the steps I did after I put it back together first and see if it's not like a better reset or something.
just one solution that worked for someone... i wouldn't count on this working long tho if it does there is an underlying problem somewhere with the motherboard on the ps3 that is causing the gpu to fail...
you should probably check the heat sink on the gpu and make sure you have adequate thermal paste and that your ps3 is not filled with dust and debris while your checking the thermal paste...

Posted 18 January 2010 - 09:14 AM
yeah, dust could be an issue with this, if its a early 60G....
but he has probably solved the problem by now, I hope :-)
but he has probably solved the problem by now, I hope :-)

Other errors such as temperature sensor defective, faulty power supply, etc. are almost impossible. A hard disk crash is excluded, because even with a defective hard drive will boot the PS3.

Nikon 1 J3 Review

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G80 Review
Your Comments
10 Comments | Newest Oldest First | Post a Comment
I'd love one of these to go with my other nikon professional equipment?
Whats the bokeh like on the 10-30?
The 1-series are great little cameras.
@Geoff, don't expect too much shallow DOF with the 10-30mm, the 30-110mm is a little better in that respect.
But if you really want shallow DOF get the FT1 adapter and use D or G-lenses.
With the the G-lenses AF will also work normally, but only with a single focus point.
Apologies Geoff, i mislead you. Just stick with Canon :)
I thought this was a review of the j3, but your saying it has no electronic view finder like on the j3. Why am I confused here. What camera are you reviewing? This is not the first statement in this review here that has confused me. I need an electronic view finder for beach videos.
Judging by the number of times the "J3" is compared to the "J3", this article is clearly a copy-and-paste job from another source or a review of a previous model. I'd be wary of taking any of its conclusions seriously.
Battery life is the worst I've seen on any Nikon camera.
Costco (Canada) has this with card and case for $379.99 (+tx)
Could anyone who had a chance to try it tell me whether this one is better than J2? Do the improvements done worth its price?
Won't be visiting your site again due to annoying, moving pop up ads. But good review.
Very unprofessional "review". A half-assed copy and pasted job.

Is Krishnudu hero or villain in Naa Style Nade?
Krishnudu is playing a distinct one in Naa Style Nade.
So far we have seen him in stereotypical roles. Krishnudu is playing a distinct one in Naa Style Nade. Just what does he do in the film? Rowdyism. "Krishnudu is playing a self-styled rowdy in the movie. Does he do bullying for good or bad? Is he a hero or a villain? All this is suspense for now", director Surendar Kapoor says.
Produced by Ravi Kapoor, the film's talkie part has been shot to the extent of 70%. "We will shoot an item song on a popular face in the coming days. More songs will be shot in Rajasthan and abroad later", he says.
Riteish Patel, Neelam Shetty, Arjun Yadav, Munnabhai, 'Telangana' Shakuntala, Narsing Yadav, Dilli Rajeshwari and others are playing key roles. Dance choreography is by Nixon. Lyrics are by Paidishetty Ram and T Shravan Kumar. Music is by Sunil Kashyap. Cinematography is by Nagendra Kumar.

Harold Simmons' nuclear waste committee fined for violating campaign finance law
It's not exactly going to break Dallas billionaire Harold Simmons, but the Texas Ethics Commission has fined his political committee $6,450 for violating state law. The committee — WCS-Texas Solutions PAC – made $64,500 in unauthorized political donations to Texas lawmakers in late 2011. The problem was that the PAC didn't qualify as a legal PAC. The law requires that PACs have at least 10 contributors. The WCS PAC had only one — Simmons, who deposited $100,000 and then dispensed money to favored political candidates. Waste Control Specialists operates a nuclear-waste dump in West Texas. Had Simmons, who heads the company, made the donations directly in his own name, it would have been okay. But the 10-contributor law is aimed at making sure big donors don't try to disguise their giving by doing so through a political committee.
A spokesman for the Waste Control PAC said he erred by not having at least 10 donors as the law requires. "We made a mistake," said Bill Lindquist. He said the PAC would amend its filing with the ethics commission to include the required number of donors. The amended report lists Simmons and nine additional donors, who gave $100 each including Austin lobbyists and the firm's public relations consultant.
The civil action was initiated by a formal complaint filed by Texans for Public Justice. "We are disappointed in the meager size of the fine," said Craig McDonald, TPJ director. "Let's all pray Simmons takes more care in handling atomic waste than he does in handling his campaign contributions."

Update part 7: the gear reducer
Last week the gear reducer was hoisted out of the engine room for an overhaul. After 12 years and close to 30 000 operating hours it is in use of some proper maintenance.
Ships bigger than the Clipper don't always need a gear reducer. They can harbor an engine big enough to create a lot of power and still have a low rotation count. A low rotation count is necessary for efficient propelling. When the rotation speed is to high the blades of the bow thruster don't have enough grip on the water so to speak to propel the ship.
On board of the Clipper however, there is not enough room for such a big motor. That's why she has a relatively small compact 4-stroke Caterpillar V8 cylinder motor. This motor can generates enough power (1000hp) but does this with 1800RPM. This amount of power is necessary when maneuvering, when the bow thruster is also used. The bow thruster also gets its power from the main engine through an hydraulic pump. 1800 RPM would be too much for the bow thruster. A RPM of 400 would be most efficient. This is where the gear reduce comes in. It is located between the motor and the bow thruster and reduces the amount of rotations to a more efficient volume. Also the gear reducer allows the bow thruster axis to be detached from the main engine. When sailing this reduced resistance. The bow thruster itself can be altered hydraulically in feathering position, further diminishing the resistance when sailing.
To overhaul the gear reducer it had to be lifted out of the Clipper. A hole of 180 cm x 180cm was made in the hull through which this 2 tons weighting piece of equipment was lifted. At first there was not enough maneuvering space in the engine room for the crane. By cutting the exhaust pipe of the main engine the necessary room was created. When, after the overhaul, the gear reducer has been put back in place, the exhaust will be repaired with detachable two flanges. This will ensure easy access in future.

This six page pattern contains detailed instructions for cutting and piecing the Sir Robot block.
Sir Robot comes with templates for his favourite accessories: a heart, gears, and a selection of mustaches.
The block takes a couple of hours to assemble, and I've found it quite exciting to watch the design come together. Once you've made one, you will definitely want to make another!
There is no paper piecing required to create this block. It's suitable for novice quilters who are looking to practice their piecing skills. This project will definitely help master a precise 1/4 inch seam allowance.
What can you make with the Sir Robot pattern?
- Baby blankets and children's quilts
- Modern robot themed quilts and accessories
- So much more!

It's a busy weekend for me! How about you?
I'll be participating in my first 5k race of the year at the Frosty 5k as part of the AlpenFrost Festival in beautiful -- and snowy -- Gaylord.
My goal this year is to do 14 5k races as a way to offset all my searches for Michigan's Best restaurants. It seems like I've gained a few pounds over the last couple of years. I'm also hoping to lose 20 pounds before I hit the road in mid March.
Now, let's get to the Top 5.
1. Traverse City Winter Microbrew & Music Festival, 4 p.m. Feb. 8, Traverse City
The Microbrew & Music festival happens twice a year in Traverse City, and it always features great Michigan craft beer and live music. The winter version takes place in the Farmers Market lots on Union Street and Grandview Parkway, and it will feature about 35 craft breweries with 130-plus beers. Some of the featured acts include Mustard Plug, Frontier Ruckus, Third Coast Kings, Don Julin & Billy Strings, Chardon Polka Band, Grand Traverse Pipes & Drums and more. Tickets are $40. More details at microbrewandmusic.com.
2. Cirque du Soleil Varekai, Feb. 5-9; Joe Louis Arena, Detroit
If you love the "cirque" shows, you'll be entertained by "Varekai" (pronounced ver·ay·'kie), which means in the language of the gypsies. This production pays tribute to the nomadic soul and spirit. Six performances will stop at Joe Louis Arena. Tickets start at $41. More details at olympiaentertainment.com.
Planning ahead: "Cirque du Soleil Varekai" returns to Michigan for performances April 2-6 at the Breslin Center in East Lansing. More details at breslincenter.com.
3. Michigan International Auto Show, Feb. 6-9, DeVos Place, Grand Rapids
I always attend this auto show because its smaller scale allows you to see just about everything, including 300-plus new vehicles of sedans, vans, SUV's, trucks, hybrids and sports cars. Festivities begin with a charity gala to benefit DeVos Children's Hospital on Feb. 5. More details at showspan.com.
4. Pixies, Cults, 7 p.m. Feb. 8, The Fillmore, Detroit
The legendary '80s/'90s alternative rock pioneers the Pixies will make a stop in Detroit this weekend with opening act the Cults. Tickets are $39.50 to $59.50. "Surfer Rosa" is still one of my favorite albums of all time! The band recently unveiled a video for "Magdalena" from its new release "EP2."
5. AlpenFrost Festival, Feb. 7-8, Gaylord
As I said, I'll be in Gaylord on Friday for the opening festivities of AlpenFrost, a pre-cursor to this summer's popular AlpenFest. On Feb. 8 I'll participate in the Frosty 5k, which is one of the many activities this weekend, including a Polar Plunge Parade, Soup-Off Contest, freestyle rail jam, and beer and wine tent. More info at gaylordalpenfrost.com. Also, later on Feb. 8 I'll head over to Treetops for its Wine and Beer Festival, which coincides with AlpenFrost.

Historical Traveler Reviews Albion House Hotel London
An email I wrote to this shabby/shady establishment:
Dear Albion House Hotel,
I travel weekly to London and normally stay at the Saint Gregory Hotel in Shoreditch. As the Saint Gregory was booked this week, I thought I would stay at the Albion House as it looked to be pleasant
alternative not located terribly far from the City.
Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience with your service. I called your hotel three times over the course of the week, and each time I was connected with a somewhat rude and generally unhelpful person.
On the first occasion I called to inquire if there was availability on Wednesday the 13th. The female reservationist could not be bothered to help me and asked that I send an inquiry via email. Any hotel describing itself as "contemporary, stylish, elegant and luxurious" should be capable of handling booking inquiries via email and phone.
Despite the attitude, I did make a reservation through londonnights. On Monday the 10th, I again called the Albion House to ensure that they had my reservation and to see if they could be so kind as to
supply me with the a booking number. Another equally unhelpful person took my call and said that the computer was down and that I would have to call later. Here is an idea for your customer service team: be proactive and ask for your client's email address and
offer to email them with the information.
Finally, on Wednesday evening the 13th, I called the Albion House for a third time on they way in from the airport in order to get the street address. Given the information, I proceeded to the hotel. When I arrived at reception (which was at a different hotel in
generally poor condition), I was told that the Albion house suffered some sort of electrical problem and therefore there was no room available for me. Why did no one proactively contact me or at least inform me when I call on they from the airport about this issue.
This way I could have found acceptable accommodation elsewhere. The gentlemen at the reception ushered me to the Crestfield Hotel on Argyle Square for substitute accommodation. The conditions at this
hotel were very poor, but as it was so late at night I had no choice but to stay in rather unclean, ill-kept room for the evening.
In summary, if you wish to continue describing yourself as "contemporary, stylish, elegant and luxurious" you need to drastically improve (or should I say implement) your customer service policy. I have informed londonnights of my experience, and I will
through travel websites (i.e. Trip Advisor) alert other travelers who are looking for "contemporary, stylish, elegant and luxurious" accommodation that they should avoid the Albion House Hotel.
What a disappointment
We booked this hotel because of the description and pictures and the staff very helpful on the phone. Unfortunately we were let down when we actually stayed there. Firstly we had booked quad rooms which i expected to be 4 single beds but they were 2 doubles. The rooms were very poky indeed and the bathroom was tiny - in fact it wasn't a bathroom but a shower with a toilet stuck in there. The triple room was better and had a bigger bathroom and separate toilet. Most of the staff we saw on a day to day basis were miserable, spoke hardly any English and were quite rude. The breakfast left a lot to be desired (no cooked breakfast in sight) and don't expect to be greeted with a smile or any pleasantries - that would be too much to ask! Finally check-out was 10.30am but at 10.20am the rude one was knocking on our door telling us to check out! Overall, very disappointed and i would not stay there again in a hurry!
Would Not Recommend the Albion
We went online looking for an inexpensive family-friendly hotel in London for a weekend trip from Paris, where we had been staying. The Albion's web site looked fine, the reviews on Tripavisor were mixed but not awful, the price was the best we could find. That said, I can't even tell you what the Albion is like because the inefficient, rude hotel staff at the Melville (where you have to check in) put us in another of their properties, the Excelsior. The room in the Excelsior was small to cramped, but clean, but seemed a poor value for the money. The area is dismal, entirely lacking in charm. There simply must be better values, with better service, in better areas in London. Just sorry I didn't look a bit harder.
Don't be fooled by the pictures!!!
Like most people, I decided on this hotel based on the location, price and pictures. And the pictures show only clean and nicely decorated rooms at THIS '13 bedroom hotel'.
What they don't tell you is that if you book budget /single rooms you DO NOT stay in this hotel. Instead, they send you across the road to a dingy old place where only the very basic of facilities are available. Oh! and you need to go back across the road to the 'place on the picture' if you want any breakfast...
Obviously, by the time you find out about this is too late for you to cancel without losing money. The reception staff was not only extremely unhelpful but spoke hardly any English at all. They would not even give me information on 'upgrading' to the building I 'thought' I booked in the first place!
When you book things online, you only have descriptions and pictures to go by - in this case these were neither honest or accurate!
Not as expected
We stayed at the Albion House Hotel for three nights and found the place to be really cramped. Although, it is new, the staircase was very narrow making us very difficult to cart our suitcases to the first floor. The room was very tiny and so also the bathroom. The flow of water was very good. The passage leading to the room from the staircase is so narrow which makes it difficult for the person to walk and carting the luggage makes it worse. Although we were there for three nights, we were just given a tiny soap for two adults and there was no shampoo in the bathroom. On the third night, when we entered the room, we found that the room was done and the lady who did the room must have forgotten to keep the towels. So we had to go down to the next hotel because ours had no reception. Looks like the next hotel is also under the same management. Now one has to ring the door bell and after two or three attempts, a man opens the door (this is after 8 pm). When we told him that there were no towels and no soap kept in the room, he was rude and most relunctantly gave us two towels and said that he could not give us soap because everything is under lock and key and that the manager takes the key away when she goes home. That means we had to have a bath without soap the next morning before leaving for the airport. The whole place looked scary to me and would not advise anyone to go and stay there. We were given a key for the main door of the building. God forbid if there is a fire, the passages in the building are so narrow that it makes one difficult to escape. This is the first hotel I have come across which has no reception. When we asked for the iron, they said that we could not take it to the room but should come and iron our clothes in the room which is in the next building. There are no telephones in the room and no safe deposit lockets at the reception nor inside the rooms.
Breakfast was very minimum, just two toast of bread with jam and butter and one type of cereal and one type of canned fruit. The breakfast room is so tiny that it makes it very difficult to sit and eat. I don't think it is value for the money we paid.
The location of the hotel is nothing great at all other than it being close to Kings Cross tube station.
There are better places than this one and think a hundred times before any one of you go there.
Great Value
Stayed here for two nights over bank holiday weekend (Sat & Sun), and found the place excellent value for money. Room very smart and comfortable. Breakfast is as advertised, continental, so found it annoying when other guests asked why there was no cooked breakfast. Would stongly recommend this place to anyone looking for something cheap and very cheerful in London. Nicely located near both King Cross over ground stations, and underground station.
We also needed to store out luggage somewhere after we checked out of our room, and they were more than happy to look after our luggage for us.
Nice little hotel
We booked a triple and found on arrival that we had been upgraded to a quad. The room was clean and best of all, the hotel is away from the main road so you get some peace and quiet. The toilet is small like most London B&Bs. There is room for improvement on the breakfast table though, with a cooked breakfast not available even as an extra. But at this price and location it is unbeatable value for money. I would recommend this hotel to all types of travellers for a short stay in London.
Terrific value
15 of us stayed for 5 nights. Terrific value for money. Excellent staff/owners. Very helpful. Would defintely stay again

Good option
The hotel is located 3 minutes walking from the king cross station.
The room (quadruple in suit) was comfortable and quiet. The bathroom was small, but the room is bigger than the average London rooms.
The hotel is new and very clean.
The hotel has few rooms and I did the check in and check out in the Melville hotel, 1 minute walking from the Albion House. If it's raining, you will get wet.
The images and the information that I saw in the web page are the same that I saw when I was hosted.
The breakfast is the weak point. Only there are coffee milk and a beverage called juice. There are too two toast with butter and jam, muesli and canned fruits.
Nice clean room
Great location in a quiet street opposite Kingscross/St Pancras Station. You have to walk across the square (50 metres)to check in at another hotel(no check-in facility at the hotel itself but there is a guard in the house), it was quite worrying if you want to check-in at 1 am and the guy happen to have gone out to get his snack. We stayed in a triple room, the room is clean and nicely decorated but be warned, there is no shampoo. Staffs are very friendly though speak hardly any English, breakfastroom is very tiny, you might have to squeeze some where in the corner waiting for a seat to become free. All of us are happy with the choice.

Whiteface in New York's Adirondack region is a mountain with a lot of character and one of the biggest characters on the mountain is ski school director Ed Kreil.
Whether he is skiing down a trail while playing his accordion or cruising the streets of Lake Placid in his Porsche (it's in storage for the winter), Ed is an attraction in an Olympic community that is full of world class attractions.
I've known Ed for years, but note that in the video he calls me Mark and the two to three feet of snow he talks about on Saturday was really about 20 inches - but we're not going the sweat the minor details.
If Ed looks familiar to the people of New Jersey, it's because he was a golf pro in the Garden State and a ski school instruction at the old Vernon Valley / Great Gorge resort (now known as Mountain Creek) during the 1980s.
Here are excerpts from a column I wrote about Ed in the Times of Trenton in March 2000.
Another way Whiteface separates itself from the crowd is with its ski school. Director Ed Kreil claims his ``parallel from the start'' learn-to-ski program is the only one of its kind in the country.
Other ski schools have beginners learn by using the wedge method, where the skier puts his feet and skis into a V-shape and snowplows down a slope. Ed puts first-timers on Snowblades (the brand name of a mini-ski made by Salomon _ although many use Snowblades as the generic term for mini-skis, this explanation will keep trademark lawyers from writing me nasty letters).
Snowblades, which are about three feet long, are often used to play in terrain parks and half-pipes and they're somewhat of a novelty item. Ed found that the mini-skis are perfect for novices, because they can start skiing with their feet and skis parallel right from the beginning. Ed first taught people to ski using Snowblades three years ago, when a group of 150 people from Great Britain came for lessons. Six members of the group were given Snowblades to learn on and the others learned with the traditional wedge method. Within three days, all the Snowblading students were skiing down from the top of Whiteface, while only a couple members of the large group of wedge students had progressed that far.
``We don't teach the wedge anymore because, after they learn it, they have to unlearn it when they parallel ski. We teach them right from the start how to ski as a good skier skis, and then we improve on that,'' Ed said. He added that people are having fun when they learn on Snowblades. ``You don't feel like you're learning, you feel like you're skiing.''
Ed introduced me to several of his success stories, One was a 47-year-old man who tried unsuccessfully to learn the old-fashioned way a dozen times. He now skis all over the mountain after only a few lessons on the mini-skis. Ed then pointed out a woman, about 25-years old, skiing down the beginners' trail.
``Look at that,'' he shouted, ``She's been on skis for only 20 minutes.''
ED THINKS no other place will teach people to ski his way because ``They're married to the old wedge method. That's what the skiing bible says, and nobody wants to rewrite the bible.''

May I presume upon your precious time to point out a few salient facts? Your excellent section labeled Correspondence has, it seems to me, been overflowing with controversial but often inaccurate letters of late. I am sure it is your wish to interest the reader by drawing him more fully into debatable subjects, yet I fear you do yourself a disservice by printing such epistles as "Breast Cancer" (172:1083 [March 5] 1960). McWhirter, I believe, uses the word "operable" in Haagensen's original sense; i. e., according to his criteria for operability. This is the point. According to Haagensen's criteria many "inoperable" patients had five-year cures. Further, your reader mistakes the purpose of radiation therapy—that is, not to kill all cells but to retard growth and cause walling-off fibrosis, thus limiting their further growth or spread. He therefore asks "Does axillary radiation, then, not cure but merely

HTC's Windows Phone 8X flagship official: 342ppi display, LTE, rocking 'em Beats
0. phoneArena 19 Sep 2012, 10:21 posted on
HTC just confirmed the existence of its flagship 8X phone that will carry the final Windows Phone 8 version, and it's a powerful spec sheet wrapped in nice candy colors..
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. Rager099 (Posts: 29; Member since: 06 Apr 2009)
not bad but i would have prefered at least a 4.5" screen because im used to my gs3 screen size. But nun the less a solid phone.
9. Nookie4u (Posts: 133; Member since: 13 Aug 2012)
imm, yes, a lot of people prefer bigger screens nowadays, I wonder why they didn't put a bigger one on this beauty..
16. Wiki_jaan (Posts: 704; Member since: 24 Jun 2012)
what about Ativ S 4.8''
31. ogy_dogy (Posts: 453; Member since: 29 Jun 2012)
Lousy samsung design, if this is a polycarb single shell like on the lumia its far better, some people dont compensate their own lackings with bigger phones :D
40. Doakie (Posts: 2007; Member since: 06 May 2009)
Meh. Dismissing other people's preference of larger screens as "Small penis syndrome" is rather short sighted. Some people just prefer larger screens, does everyone have to like what you like? That's like saying anyone with a full size car has a small penis and all Smart car drivers are well endowed... The logic doesn't work.
If you're not a fan of Samsung's design that's a valid personal opinion. My personal taste is the opposite of yours, I'd take an Ativ S over all other designs. But that's just my opinion.
45. ogy_dogy (Posts: 453; Member since: 29 Jun 2012)
You see the smiley face in the end, i was kidding, id love to have a huge car, phone, not so much. As for the sammys, i just cant get over their construction methods, but as you say thats my opinion, i always preffered tanks over planes :-P
21. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3782; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
If Beats audio is HTC's answer for the 'Floating lens' tech in 920, then HTC has lots of gap to fill up. Otherwise, this phone could be good for some serious music enthusiast, though i heard Beats isn't much enhancement in the phone. (Wondering if there is an expandable memory card slot)
But the phone definitely looks sleek...
33. snowgator (Posts: 3586; Member since: 19 Jan 2011)
I think the 4.3" option is fine. Both Nokia and Samsung have huge screens if that is a deal breaker for you. This is the industry average these days. There are those who want top shelf options in a smaller screen. Some are probably upset there is no elite device in a 3.7" or 4.0" screen size.

I think that it looks better than lumia
32. jed27 (Posts: 65; Member since: 09 Jun 2012)
lumias looks way better. even the 8S looks better than 8X. lumia920>8S>8X design-wise.
34. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
Kirholstov, I voted you down because you expressed your opinion. You see, many of the commenters on PhoneArena are Nazis, and in lieu of being able to leverage the fear of death, choose to vote people down. I'm sure you understand.
41. kirholstov (Posts: 145; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
Guys, this is only my opinion. I love the design of lumia but htc's design is a bit closer to me. I know that htc maybe even have copied Nokia's design.But I always loved htc design. Two years ago I bought htc desire. I'm happy with it. This year, probably, I will buy a new phone, and now I'm choosing between iPhone 5, Android and WP8.
42. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
You're lucky to have these choices. When I was in the market for a new phone last spring it was a choice between Android, a vastly inferior WP7, and the aging iPhone 4S. Needless to say, I pretty much had only one choice...
Given the same opportunity now though, I don't know what I'd choose: all three operating systems have their benefits.
(By the way, I didn't actually vote you down.)
44. kirholstov (Posts: 145; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
Where are you from? :)
46. ogy_dogy (Posts: 453; Member since: 29 Jun 2012)
Dafuq? I vote people down cos i dont agree with them, but i do appreciate their right to voice their opinion. If you look at all the tumbs up/down you see what people think, not who hates whom...
37. snowgator (Posts: 3586; Member since: 19 Jan 2011)
How can we judge without actually seeing them in person?
I will say this- Nokia and HTC are really entering the multi-color device world hard. If you want a more traditional look like a professional who is at meetings or clients a lot, maybe just your preference, the Samsung ATIV might actually score some points as it has a look way more mature (wrong word, but only one that is coming to my head right now).
I really like the multi-color options from Nokia and HTC. I have been itching for some choices. I love me some Samsung, but HTC has scored some points with me. The 8X will get a look see.
48. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
Both HTC and Nokia still offer black (and will probably release white versions later), and the gray one the 920 is nice enough. That said, I don't mind the colors, especially in a corporate environment, as it seems to state that I have a sense of individuality and personalization and won't conform to the monochromatic attitude
47. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
At least it looks good, and isn't a blatant copy like the ipod touch. I really like the curvature on the sides to the glass, much like the N9, Lumia 800, and the new ones, looks so inviting to touch and feel, unlike the harsh sharp edges of iDevices or the severe edge to the face transistion (typically with a different material ring, making it an even more unpleasent textural transistion) on many samsungs
4. neutralguy (Posts: 1152; Member since: 30 Apr 2012)
looks like a lumia 820 with that color!
5. Savage (unregistered)
Lumia-like design by HTC. Fancy stepping into Samsung's shoes?
29. Veigald (Posts: 290; Member since: 13 Jan 2012)
Agreed. Looks like a bit duller Lumia 920, with less interesting colours and a somewhat unsharp feel (hard to put the finger on).
49. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
I agree that the colors are less interesting (the yellow looks like old dull highlighter, unappealing), but I find the blue to be very pleasant. I've never been much of a fan of red, so I'll admit a slight bias there. Nokia's red is much oranger, so it's striking without being typical
6. papss (unregistered)
Me likes! Im happy to see all the support on w8 right now. As a Android owner this is good for competition.
7. ahhxd717 (Posts: 332; Member since: 08 Dec 2011)
Any word on whether there's an SD slot or not? Otherwise I'm really liking this phone. 4.3 inches is enough for me and that screen sounds awesome. The Lumia is still probs my top choice though

nope...the review is here...http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/19/windows-phone-8x-by-htc-hands-on-microsofts-modern-mobile-os-p/
8. jimjam (Posts: 257; Member since: 28 Jun 2011)
Does wp8 slove issues like wifi turning off when the screen is locked? Or internet sharing cutting off if there is a short period of inactivity? These two really forced me to buy another phone other than wp7.
28. Mobile-X-Pert (Posts: 565; Member since: 20 Dec 2010)
None of those issues are present on WP8. WP8 is like a whole new OS.

11. bobfreking55 (Posts: 866; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
this isn't enough to beat the Ativ's 4.8" display and I prefer the Ativ S' design. This design language is very common nowadays.

15. FranksGT (Posts: 167; Member since: 29 Aug 2012)
Condsidering HTC has had this same DESIGN for awhile you Sir are wrong and a APPLE lover obviously.
The only thing that has changed in HTC design is the front glass from what it looks likes. the back looks like a INspire/Desire/Evo

It's alright. Not enough to make upgrade from my HTC Radar off contract though. Nokia still in the lead too.

19. skymitch89 (Posts: 1299; Member since: 05 Nov 2010)
I'm thinking that the color/design isn't specific to the device manufactures, but I'm thinking that it's specific to Microsoft. Otherwise how would multiple device manufacturers develop devices that all look really similar.
35. Commentator (Posts: 3692; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
In an interview an HTC rep stated that they were going for what a LiveTile would look like in real life, like if you were to actually hold one. I'm sure that's probably the same inspiration Nokia used.

These are the types of phones Windows should have launched with, not gradually building up to them. Now that the OS has some great handsets, let's see if the gradual increase can pick up momentum.
51. -box- (Posts: 3991; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
I don't disagree, but Windows Phone 7 and 7.5 weren't capable of phones like this. I would rather they had released 7/7.5 to build a name and get momentum going than start off with 8 (which would have been called 7) which would then be an untested and arguably untrusted system.

I'd like to see HTC pay homage to the original Touch Diamond, complete with LED circle and everything.
39. ahhxd717 (Posts: 332; Member since: 08 Dec 2011)
Me too! I loved the design of that phone. It would be cool if HTC picked up the Diamond line again for their WP's
38. Tsepz_GP (Posts: 987; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
Im suprised they didnt give it the 4.7" display of the One X. HTC were the ones pushing the screen size limit in WP and Android, now they seem to be more conservative, im guessing the Titan2 didnt sell that well after all?
The WP8 flagships are rather dull, i must say. They all have VERY similar specs, same features missing, and obviously the same UI, its like the same phone, just with a different name on it, it's a damn shame.
Looking forward to HTC's S4 Pro based Android flagship, clearly WP isn't going far.

54. jibraihimi (Posts: 762; Member since: 29 Nov 2011)
Does this phone has micro sd slot or not...........??? Because other sites are reporting that it has micro sd slot to expand the internal storage which is 16GB.............
55. jibraihimi (Posts: 762; Member since: 29 Nov 2011)
If this phone really has micro sd slot then Nokia should take a look at this device, and learn how to incorporate Micro Sd slot in polycarbonate unibody, without affecting it's look..........

i really hate the design, not elegant,
58. pikapowerize (banned) (Posts: 1869; Member since: 03 May 2012)
it looks nice but i think this isnt a worthy flagship! its a stepdown from titan/titan2!
59. DP777 (Posts: 15; Member since: 25 Sep 2012)
Nokia Lumia 920 has better dispalay by size, sensitivity, brightness and resolution and the best camera on the market, 32 GB of memory against 16 of HTC, Lumia 920 has wireless charger and HD Dolby Stereo sound, better battery, the best navigation and maps, Nokia City Lens, exclusive maps, Optical image stabilisation great accessories. HTC might compete only with Lumia 820, but Lumia 820 is still better and has some unike features just compare and you will see that HTC 8X by all specs is avarege phone, some specs are good but it's not not a flagman.

Go with Flamethrower for Flygon because Fire Blast has 65 accuarcy although it is a powerful attack. Flamethrower works better due to 100 accuarcy and 95 power. Attach a Life Orb to it and it will take out a Scizor/Forrestress in no time.
Overall Team 10/10

My Diamond party consists of:
Luxray lv. 70
Giratina lv. 71
Dialgia lv. 59
Jirachi lv. 56
Gyarados lv. 52
Blissey lv. 50
... Or, to pass my knowledge to others, maybe. =P
Lucario isn't a common lead at all, anymore. Infernape's lost a huge amount of popularity too, considering bulky leads, especially with an Occa, rip him up. A Fake Out Sash set might show up every once in awhile, but there is such a thing as switching out. =P Bronzong's still around strong, but remember, Gyro Ball's BP is dependant on it's speed compared to the opponent's. Max HP TTar with no speed EVs isn't taking massive damage from a low BP, low base attack move; super effective STAB or not.
T'is true, Swampert lacks the raw power to smash things on his own; without an item. I've used a CBPert before, as insane as I am (take a wall and turn him into a sweeper? LOLWUT?), and it worked well. Not excellently, didn't win me any matches, but it didn't lose me any either. 525 attack with STAB Waterfall and EQ isn't too appealing to any poke not a wall, after all. ... Oh, and 'Pert's a ground type, only rock types get the Sp. Def boost. Get your facts straight. =P
Good assessment Storm, Flygon is a great asset with U-turn. Can't underestimate the power of free switches. =P The only thing I've gotta mention is Flygon and 'Mence share the same Base Speed. Any offensive set running Naive/Timid/Jolly, bar DD sets (they never max EVs; but come in on the switch, and Flygon gets battered), and there's a speed tie.
Not to mention there's the huge risk that the 'Mence is scarfed or otherwise. Switching Flygon in on 'Mence, and especially keeping it in on 'Mence is generally a bad idea, hence U-turn. Unless you KNOW by speed comparison that 'Mence is slower than your Flygon, NEVER leave a Flygon in on a Salamence. U-turning the turn after it switches in isn't the brightest idea, either. =P
Can't agree on your opinion with the Lucario set, though. Shadow Claw and EQ are out of place on any band/scarf/LO set, E-speed if it's not a Band set. The type coverage is rather sloppy, so... I'll confront that at a later time when I actually rate the team.
Good opinion on Gross' set, Storm. Psychic and Steel both have terrible coverage, and when you're trying to sweep, we all know coverage is everything. Thunder/Ice Punch should generally take the passenger seat when paired with MM. Again, I'll cover why in the team rate.
I can tell you don't know the horrors of Scizor. CB Scizor is indeed the most common, and the most deadly CB poke in the current metagame, but NEVER underestimate the SD version. I used to run a team with SD Scizor as the main sweeper; I never lost with the team. +2 LO STAB Bullet Punch anhilates pretty much everything; and if it doesn't, X-Scissor and Superpower do.
I loves me some Scizor, so I'll go into it right now; Night slash is redundant, since Bug already smashes Psychics, and hitting ghosts isn't too important when most of them are too fragile to take a BP, or otherwise, you can't handle (Dusknoir, the only bulky ghost that really posses a threat to Scizor, will survive a Night Slash, and then WoW your Scizor, ending his sweep permanently; if you think you can just SD up against him, you're wrong too. Fire Punch/Pain Split will put you in KO range from Burn and LO after one or two attacks; meaning you'll take out Dusknoir, and your sweep ends. Not too effective, lol.
Anyways, Storm has a point about Superpower; steel types wall Scizor completely, mainly Skarmory. Superpower highly dents it coming from +2 LO. However, it takes two Superpower shots to 2HKO Skarmory, meaning your attack stat is back to normal, you've taken LO damage, and your defense is now cut in half. Not the best position.
IMO, Brick Break is better, since it doesn't lower your attack/defense, can be consistently used to kill multiple threats without stopping your own sweep, (TTars, Blisseys, and Lucarios all on the same team, for example) and the only drawback is you can't 2HKO Skarmory (which can only whirlwind you or get KO'd), and can't OHKO Heatran. Just grab a Magnezone, or get some entry hazard damage prior to your sweep, and both of them will still fall.
Also, once HG/SS comes out, Scizor can be tutored Bug Bite. If your Scizor has Technician (which it should; otherwise Bullet Punch doesn't do crap), Bug Bite has 15 more Base Power than X-scissor. Not saying you should hold off on Scizor until then, but when you get the chance, teach it Bug Bite. You never know, you might steal a berry, and that 15 extra BP just might be enough to snag a game-winning KO. I've won a game by two damage before, seriously. =P
Anywho... I'll rate this team eventually. First up, Storm's team! I'll edit it in, or throw in a new post if someone posts before I'm done.

Following Goldman, Investment Banks Eye Utah
A word of warning to Ivy League Excel jockeys heading to Wall Street: You may end up in Salt Lake City. It's a long commute to the Hamptons, and the nightlife can be … well … sobering. Then again, think of the skiing.
Utah, already home to 5 percent of Goldman Sachs workers, is gaining momentum in its bid to be Wall Street of the West. State economic development officials say they are in advanced talks with three major banks on projects that would bring an additional 1,000 securities jobs to Salt Lake City.
For finance companies, the strategy is a classic arbitrage trade. The state offers real estate and labor well below the rates demanded in the concrete canyons of New York or other finance hubs. And, in part because a high percentage of the Salt Lake City population has completed the Mormon church's two-year missionary program, foreign language skills are abundant. More than half of Goldman's Salt Lake workforce is fluent in a second language.
Utah is also sweetening deals with major incentives, offering credits of up to one-quarter of corporate tax bills. That means Goldman will receive $47 million in Utah rebates by 2029, provided it keeps about 1,100 workers in the state and hits certain investment hurdles. Four years after signing that deal, Goldman has already met the first target. It has 1,500 Utah workers and is still making a strong Salt Lake sell in its recruiting materials.
It's not just tech support. Goldman now has asset managers and research folks in the state. It even recently added a team of investment bankers. Next month, the company will host its annual meeting in Salt Lake City, its first outside New York City.
The state has also notched smaller recruiting victories of late. Morgan Stanley has expanded its Utah operations three times in the decade since it opened an office there. In November, Royal Bank of Scotland committed to hiring 310 workers in the state, in exchange for $5.3 million in tax credits.
Granted, another 1,000 jobs won't change the industry. But in a smaller city like Salt Lake, those jobs are significant, and over time, those zeros add up.
Meanwhile, the share of securities industry workers in New York City has fallen from 30 percent to 21 percent in the past 20 years,, according to a recent report by the Securities Industry & Financial Markets Association. The city's finance industry now employs 169,700, down from a peak of 200,300 in 2000.
The labor picture is similar across the Atlantic. Employment in London's financial services industry is nearing a 20-year low, though City banks and brokerage firms still employ about 237,000 people. Powder skiing is not one of their perks.

If you attended the Outdoor Retailer Show in Salt Lake City last year you might have been one of the lucky ones who got a taste of a classic Bend beer in a classic Bend cup. In a show of just how tight Bend outdoor retailers really are, Ruffwear, Deschutes Brewery and Silipint got together to serve 200 of the trade show's attendees Deschutes beer in a Silipint. The only catch? Give us your contact information so we can tell you more about what it means to do business in Bend.
It was part of the ongoing effort by Economic Development Central Oregon to lead an organized effort to recruit more outdoor industry businesses to town. And it's just one of the ways this business support group, and outdoor retailers already here, are making an impact. EDCO and the Bend Economic Development Advisory Board have also created a series called the Outdoor Roundtable, which gets outdoor industry leaders together to collaborate around what the industry needs in Bend and how to recruit more players to the team. "Bend has all the raw ingredients to get on the map," said Van Schoessler, a sales manager for Seattle-based Stanley Outdoor, who moved to Bend three years ago and helped formed the Roundtable. "And we have the community interest and collaborative spirit to make it happen." Scott Allan, President and CEO of Hydroflask, has been involved with the Roundtable project for two years and sees an upside for all involved. "It benefits all of us to see the local outdoor industry grow," said Allan. "A bigger market helps give people confidence to take the leap and move their families to Bend, knowing they'll have more options."
One of the early spin-offs from the Roundtable is Bend Outdoor Works, an incubator project aimed at nurturing and accelerating industry growth by pooling existing resources and making them available to start-ups. "A lot of the time, established companies are going to have excess materials or idle time on their equipment. Whether there's a need for fabric cutting, prototyping, testing, and so forth, local companies are working to make resources available for start-ups," said Allan. The Roundtable is also working with OSU-Cascades in an effort to develop curriculum to strengthen the local workforce. "There is already quite a bit of industry talent here—more than you might think," said Allan. "But it's in our best interest to keep growing it. So we're working with OSU to develop courses in product design, product testing, marketing, etc. If a business is coming here to start, just knowing that the industry that's here now is working together with such collaboration and enthusiasm is likely to be comforting."
Despite their enthusiasm for developing future resources through the Roundtable, Schoessler, Allan, and others are quick to point out that there's plenty of reason to move here already. "Bend is a great place to operate an outdoor company," said Allan. "There are a number of companies here already and a ton of talent that can provide help in getting new companies off the ground. It's in our own interest to help out, but we're genuinely passionate about helping others get started."

Russias Anti-Gay Crackdown
By HARVEY FIERSTEIN
Here is the full article: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/22/op...down.html?_r=0On July 3, Mr. Putin signed a law banning the adoption of Russian-born children not only to gay couples but also to any couple or single parent living in any country where marriage equality exists in any form.
A few days earlier, just six months before Russia hosts the 2014 Winter Games, Mr. Putin signed a law allowing police officers to arrest tourists and foreign nationals they suspect of being homosexual, lesbian or pro-gay and detain them for up to 14 days. Contrary to what the International Olympic Committee says, the law could mean that any Olympic athlete, trainer, reporter, family member or fan who is gay or suspected of being gay, or just accused of being gay can go to jail...

McLane's Mason, Prep's Zablotny named all-state in basketball
District 10 had four boys basketball teams make runs to the PIAA quarterfinals this season.
The star from each of those four has been named to the all-state team.
Cathedral Prep standout Sheldon Zablotny, the District 10 Player of the Year, along with Jaymon Mason (General McLane), Matthew Dogan (West Middlesex) and Darrian Brown (VisionQuest) were named to the Pennsylvania Sports Writers all-state basketball team on Tuesday.
"There are a lot of great players around the state and just to put me in the mix feels good," Mason said. "I came in every day and worked hard to get better as a player and we had a great season. We wanted to get to the state championship but it was a fun year with a great group of guys."
Mason, a 6-foot 2-inch junior, averaged 18.4 points per game for the Lancers to be named to the second team. The Lancers finished the regular season 21-0 and won the District 10 Class AAA championship. McLane's undefeated season ended in the quarterfinals against eventual PIAA runner-up Montour, 48-38.
Mason was named to the all-district team last week and was a first-team all-region selection. The sharpshooting point guard was voted the Region 7 Player of the Year and has received some interest from Gannon in the early part of his recruiting.
Zablotny, a 5-foot 11-inch junior guard, put together another terrific regular season before breaking out in a big way during the playoffs. Zablotny scored a career-high 26 points and had 12 rebounds in an 85-43 rout of Strong Vincent to win the D-10 Class AAAA championship. Zablotny then had 25 points against Central Catholic, including the game-tying jumper at the end of regulation and the game-winning runner at the buzzer.
"I was wondering how the state viewed me as a player and it was great to hear I made all-state," he said. "It felt like all of my hard work in the summer and the work my coaches put me through paid off. My team really helped me get there this season."
Zablotny, who was named to the all-state third team, has 874 career points and is on pace to become only the 11th player in Prep history to crack 1,000 points. RaSean Thrower was the latest to do it in 2010 with 1,094.
Zablotny is receiving interest from Elon (N.C.), Youngstown State and Gannon.
Class A was the most successful class for D-10 in the PIAA playoffs with all three teams reaching the second round.
Dogan, who could break the Mercer County scoring record next year, was named to the first team, while Brown was a second-team selection.
Dogan, a 6-foot 6-inch all-district pick, averaged 22.4 points per game to lead West Middlesex to the Region 1 and D-10 Class A championships. The junior has 1,497 career points and is chasing Kennedy Catholic graduate Kyle Randall's record of 2,022.
Brown, a 6-foot 2-inch senior, averaged 21.5 points per game for VisionQuest this past winter.
Chester coach Larry Yarbray picked up the Class AAAA coach of the year honor after leading the Clippers to their second-straight PIAA title. Chester has won 58 consecutive games.
Former Edinboro star Adam Kaufman of Montour was named the AAA coach of the year.

1 review for Black with Faded Pattern Crystal
I must express some thakns to you for rescuing me from this scenario. As a result of looking out throughout the the web and coming across tricks that were not beneficial, I was thinking my entire life was well over. Existing devoid of the solutions to the difficulties you've sorted out by means of your entire review is a critical case, and the ones which could have in a wrong way affected my entire career if I had not encountered your web blog. Your natural talent and kindness in touching everything was important. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not come upon such a solution like this. It's possible to now relish my future. Thank you very much for this specialized and sensible help. I won't think twice to suggest your site to anybody who would like tips about this issue.

Hadley Park gets $6.5 million for renovations
Comm. Hardemon & City approve funding
Carla St.Louis | 2/20/2014, 9 a.m.
Charles Hadley Park Youth Center will be receiving a makeover courtesy of Commissioner Keon Hardemon.
"The community had been demanding park improvements and expansion for years," said Hardemon. "We have literally, hundreds of children who actively use the park on a regular basis and this will insure their activities continue regardless of the weather. Additionally, it will allow for the expansion of programs currently housed at the park."
Hadley Park, located on N.W. 50th Street and 12th Avenue, is a popular fixture in Liberty City.
Its beautification process includes a new 23,000 square foot youth center that will include an indoor basketball court, exercise room with adjacent lockers and restroom and classrooms.
The Meek Senior Center's lobby and reception area will be connected by a new covered drop-off area.
The renovations will include new meeting rooms, a computer room, office spaces and storage.
Other park improvements include a field parking lot and signage with ADA concrete ramps.
Hadley Park's makeover plans are expected to bring approximately 100-150 construction worker positions to Liberty City.
The improvements were funded by a $6.5 million allocation from the City of Miami Commission and the Homeland Security Bond Initiative.

On Sunday, Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) called in to a New Nation of Islam radio program to talk about racism in the government. He had some thoughts on the topic.
The 11-term congressman argued that racism is behind much of the GOP's strong opposition to and "disrespect" for President Obama, specifically citing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's early pledge to oppose anything Obama proposed ("Now if that's not a racist statement I don't know what is"). Then Thompson called Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas an "Uncle Tom," adding that "it's almost to the point saying this man doesn't like black people, he doesn't like being black."
Even the New Nation of Islam host, who calls himself the Son of Man, was taken aback by the "Uncle Tom" reference. But Thompson stood by the remark in an interview with CNN's Dana Bash on Wednesday — not many members of Congress or the Washington press corps listen to New Nation of Islam radio, so it took a few days for BuzzFeed to pick up the quotes and for everyone to get upset.
Thompson explained to Bash that every decision Thomas has signed on to at the court has "been adverse to the minority community, and the people I represent have a real issue with an African American not being sensible to those issues." When Bash asked if "Uncle Tom" isn't "a racially charged term," Thompson responded: "For some it is, but to others it's the truth." Here's Thompson's interview with Bash:
Thompson further argued that he can call someone an "Uncle Tom" because he's black. I suspect that theory will quickly be put to the test in Washington and in his Jackson-based district — the only majority-black district in Mississippi (Thompson is the only Democrat in Mississippi's congressional delegation). You can listen to Thompson's factually questionable thoughts on Republican racism, via BuzzFeed, or hear his "Uncle Tom" remarks below. --Peter Weber

Vin Scully, the famed Los Angeles Dodgers announcer whose dulcet tones are known throughout Southern California, called his last game at Dodger Stadium on Sunday. The 88-year-old has spent 67 seasons with the Dodgers, following the team to L.A. from Brooklyn. The day was all about Scully, with players tipping their caps to him before their first at-bat, and his grandchildren surprising him in the booth.
All for you, #VIN. https://t.co/whd02EBBpk
— Los Angeles Dodgers (@Dodgers) September 26, 2016
During the seventh inning, a recording of Scully singing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" played, and his rendition of "Wind Beneath My Wings" was heard at the end. Addressing the crowd, Scully said: "You have kept me young at heart. Believe me when I tell you, I've needed you far more than you needed me." The game ended on a high note, with a walk-off homer in the 10th inning by Charlie Culberson giving the Dodgers a 4-3 win over the Colorado Rockies and their fourth consecutive division title. "Would you believe that run?" Scully asked. "Leave it to the Dodgers." Catherine Garcia
The midnight curfew put into place Thursday in Charlotte, North Carolina, following protests over the fatal officer-involved shooting of Keith Lamont Scott, was lifted Sunday by Mayor Jennifer Roberts.
In a statement, Roberts and Trevor M. Fuller, the chairman of the Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners, said they wanted the community to "show their unity in a peaceful and legal manner." After Scott's shooting on Tuesday, protesters took over the streets of uptown Charlotte, with some incidents of violence — a 26-year-old man was shot and killed by a civilian, police say, and several protesters and officers were injured.
The protests over the weekend, including one outside of the NFL game Sunday between the Carolina Panthers and Minnesota Vikings, were all peaceful. As "The Star-Spangled Banner" played inside Bank of America stadium, demonstrators went down to their knees, NBC News reports, with riot police watching. Catherine Garcia
Arnold Palmer, the beloved golfer who helped popularize the game, died Sunday. He was 87.
His death was confirmed by Arnold Palmer Enterprises CEO Alastair Johnson. In a career that spanned six decades, Palmer won 62 PGA tour titles and seven majors, in addition to making millions as a pitchman and golf course designer — he put his touch on more than 300 golf courses in 37 states and 25 countries, including the first modern course built in China in 1988. Palmer was born Sept. 10, 1929, in Pennsylvania, and his father, a pro and greenskeeper at a country club, first put a club in his hands at age 3. Before winning the 1954 U.S. Amateur at the Country Club of Detroit, Palmer attended Wake Forest University on a golf scholarship, spent three years in the Coast Guard, and sold paint in Cleveland. Palmer, nicknamed "The King," said his 1954 win was the "turning point in my life. It gave me confidence I could compete at the highest level of the game."
Palmer was also known to non-golfers for the famous beverage carrying his name: the Arnold Palmer, half iced tea and half lemonade. He received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2004 and the Congressional Gold Medal in 2012, the highest honors the United States can give to a civilian. His wife of 45 years, Winifred Walzer, died in 1999. He is survived by his second wife, Kit; daughters Amy Saunders and Peggy Wears; and six grandchildren, including PGA Tour golfer Sam Saunders.

Protests over Keith Lamont Scott's death expected to continue at Charlotte's Panthers-Vikings game
Charlotte city officials say they are planning extra security for the Carolina Panthers vs. Minnesota Vikings game their city will host Sunday, because protests over the police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott are expected to move to the Bank of America Stadium. The city has labeled the game an "extraordinary event," a category which permits police to ban backpacks in the stadium as well as items like box cutters and chains that might be used as weapons.
Protesters took to the streets for a fifth night on Saturday after the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department released dash and body camera footage depicting Scott's death. The video does not settle the issue of whether Scott had a gun or whether he was holding it while interacting with officers, a major point of contention between police and the Scott family.
"There is no definitive evidence in this video as to whether or not there is an object in his hand, and if there is, what that object is," said an attorney for Scott's family, Justin Bamberg. "But what we do know is that the moment Mr. Scott is shot, it appears as though he's not aggressively moving toward law enforcement; he's actually doing the opposite. He's passively stepping back."
Some protesters have expressed hope that an NFL player, like the Panthers' Cam Newton, who has spoken on race-related issues in the past, might declare his support for the rally at the stadium. Bonnie Kristian
North Korea held its first air show Sunday, and only two of the planes were remote-controlled scale models.
Intriguingly, one of the models was a miniature American F-16, an odd choice for the isolated, communist nation whose government regularly declares its hatred for the United States. Likewise odd, another demonstration featured U.S.-made Hughes MD 500 military-use helicopters, which in theory should not be in North Korea thanks to U.S. sanctions.
The show also featured parachutists, passenger planes, and fireworks. Watch a portion of the demonstration below. Bonnie Kristian

French United Nations Ambassador Francois Delattre said Sunday the barrage of Syrian government airstrikes that have pounded rebel-held areas of Aleppo since Friday amount to "war crimes" by the Bashar al-Assad regime and cannot be left unpunished.
The "Security Council simply cannot accept such war crimes — yes, war crimes — to repeat again," Delattre argued, proposing "an immediate humanitarian truce in Aleppo and the Ghouta [a region of Syria near Damascus], 20 years after the siege of Sarajevo."
Since Friday, more than 200 strikes have hit Aleppo, killing at least 100 people and leaving 2 million civilians without running water. The U.N. Security Council convened at 11 a.m. Eastern time Sunday to discuss the situation. Complicating matters, the council includes Russia, which is allied with the Assad regime.
Update 1:06 p.m.: British Foreign Minister Boris Johnson on Sunday also said "war crimes" are occurring in Syria and suggested Russia is responsible because of its alliance with Damascus. American U.N. Ambassador Samantha Power took a slightly more measured approach, avoiding the war crimes label but terming Moscow's actions in Syria "barbarism, not counter-terrorism" and calling the conditions in Aleppo "apocalyptic."
A Russian spokeswoman immediately rejected Johnson's remarks. "The foreign minister of Great Britain Boris Johnson said in a broadcast of the BBC that Russia is guilty of protracting civil war in Syria and, possibly, of committing war crimes in the form of air attacks on convoys with humanitarian aid," Maria Zakharova said on Facebook Sunday. "All this is right except for two words: Instead of 'Russia' it needs to be 'Great Britain' and instead of 'Syria,' 'Iraq.'" Bonnie Kristian
Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence promised Sunday his running mate, Donald Trump, will "absolutely" tell the truth while debating Hillary Clinton on Monday because he "always speaks straight from his mind and straight from his heart."
Trump is "going to speak the truth to the American people," Pence said in an interview with CBS's Face the Nation. "That's why you see the tremendous momentum in this campaign."
The veep candidate also weighed in on Trump's informal style of debate prep — which poses a sharp contrast to Clinton's more studied approach — arguing that Trump "has been preparing for this debate for his entire lifetime." After all, "he's built a great business and he's traveled the country," Pence said, "and particularly in this campaign he's given voice to the frustration and aspirations of the American people like no leader in my lifetime since Ronald Reagan."

'May you live in interesting times' (Chinese curse)
The level of pre-Budget speculation is greater than ever and this can be attributed to two things. Firstly, kites are being flown about the dreadful things ministers might have to do, if they are pushed too far. A speech to your parliamentary party is a good vehicle in this regard, because it is bound to be leaked afterwards to the media. (more…)
