An international team of scientists led by the University of Michigan has discovered a new type of photoreceptor—only the third to be found in animals—that is about 50 times more efficient at capturing light than the rhodopsin in the human eye.
The new receptor protein, LITE-1, was found among a family of taste receptors in invertebrates, and has unusual characteristics that suggest potential future applications ranging from sunscreen to scientific research tools, the team noted in findings published online Nov. 17 in the journal Cell.
"Our experiments also raise the intriguing possibility that it might be possible to genetically engineer other new types of photoreceptors," said senior study author Shawn Xu, a faculty member of the U-M Life Sciences Institute, where his lab is located.
The LITE-1 receptor was discovered in the eyeless, millimeter-long roundworms known as nematodes, a common model organism in bioscience research.
"LITE-1 actually comes from a family of taste receptor proteins first discovered in insects," said Xu, who is also a professor in the Department of Molecular and Integrative Physiology at the U-M Medical School. "These, however, are not the same taste receptors as in mammals."
Xu's lab previously demonstrated that although they lack eyes, the worms will move away from flashes of light. The new research goes a step further, showing that LITE-1 directly absorbs light, rather than being an intermediary that senses chemicals produced by reactions involving light.
"Photoreceptors convert light into a signal that the body can use," Xu said. "LITE-1 is unusual in that it is extremely efficient at absorbing both UV-A and UV-B light—10 to 100 times greater than the two other types found in the animal kingdom: opsins and cryptochromes. The next step is to better understand why it has these amazing properties."
The genetic code of these receptor proteins is also very different from other types of photoreceptors found in plants, animals and microbes, Xu said.
Characterizing the current research as an "entry point," the researchers said the discovery might prove useful in a variety of ways.
With further study, for example, it might be possible to develop LITE-1 into a sunscreen additive that absorbs harmful rays, or to further scientific research by fostering light sensitivity in new types of cells, the scientists wrote in the paper.
Several characteristics make LITE-1 unusual, Xu said.
Animal photoreceptors typically have two components: a base protein and a light-absorbing chromophore (a role played by retinal, or vitamin A, in human sight). When you break these photoreceptors apart, the chromophore still retains some of its functionality.
This is not the case for LITE-1. Breaking it apart, or "denaturing" it, completely stops its ability to absorb light, rather than just diminishing it—showing that it really is a different model, Xu said.
The researchers also determined that within the protein, having the amino acid tryptophan in two places was critical to its function.
When a nonlight-sensitive protein in the same family, GUR-3, was modified to add the corresponding tryptophan residues, it reacted strongly to ultraviolet light—with about a third the sensitivity to UV-B as LITE-1.
"This suggests scientists may be able to use similar techniques to genetically engineer other new photoreceptors," Xu said.
Researchers use engineered viruses to provide quantum-based enhancement of energy transport
Nature has had billions of years to perfect photosynthesis, which directly or indirectly supports virtually all life on Earth. In that time, the process has achieved almost 100 percent efficiency in transporting the energy of sunlight from receptors to reaction centers where it can be harnessed — a performance vastly better than even the best solar cells.
One way plants achieve this efficiency is by making use of the exotic effects of quantum mechanics — effects sometimes known as "quantum weirdness." These effects, which include the ability of a particle to exist in more than one place at a time, have now been used by engineers at MIT to achieve a significant efficiency boost in a light-harvesting system.

Check in was at an office fairly close to the apartment. We were given a map and directions which took us there without any problems. The apartment was clean and well maintained. It was situated within easy walking distance of grand place and city centre attractions. The only negatives were a bit of noise from what sounded like a party in an adjoining apartment and minor detail of the only tall cupboard to hang clothes in having no door handles.
I would recommend this apartment for short stays as storage is a little limited for more than a week.
This was our first trip to Brussels, Belgium. We were there for one week, although based on the experiences we had in this historic ancient city, it will not be our last. Our stay at Slacken Residence 5 apartment was definitely one of the highlights of our stay. From the very first communication with the staff to the last encounter, we experienced 5 star customer service. They made us feel as if we were visiting friends instead of being proprietors of a renovated castle. We had no idea how close we were to everything. After we settled into our flat, we decided to take a walk. Rue Antoine Danseuse is a luxury street of downtown Brussels. Many shops of modern Belgian fashion, shoe shops etc are there. There is something for everyone. The area is fascinating and you can have a peaceful walk either in the daytime or at night. Grand Place and Kennan Pis are just around the corner from this great road. Grand apartments and buildings occupy the road on each side. All these have great facade and the architecture will be of great interest for those studying architecture.
We spent 10 nights during our short vacation. Our stay was very exciting, and the apartment really fantastic.
This apartment is in a quiet neighborhood but also close to everything at the same time. It is a short walking distance to the metro and everything else. I particularly enjoyed the Rue Nerve shopping street. I advise you to start to walk on this road from Roger square then walk down the street to Grand Place. it is about 1-1.5 km long. A lot of street brand not luxury brand. The staff were very professional and very accommodating. We were very pleased with every aspect of the apartment and our stay. The location and price were superb; we could not have picked a better place to stay.
My partner and I loved this little flat in Brussels. From here we pounded the pavement and saw most sights – it was very accessible. As for the flat, it was very well equipped, tasteful and of a very high standard. The living area was fantastic; we spent plenty of time there. The staff were also very accommodating as well as understanding considering our miss-up with communications. Looking forward to our return some day.
The flat worked great for us. The staff were very hospitable and helpful. We particularly liked how close it was to the metro and walking distance to the sites of ancient Brussels. After we booked I wondered if I would have been better of here an area that so many have recommended. But once we were there we were glad we stayed in this apartment. Charming real neighborhood, plenty of night life with locals. The flat was quiet and the beds were comfortable. We were very satisfied.

BeschreibungShortlisted for the Man Booker Prize for Fiction As every schoolboy knows, you can fit the whole of England on the Isle of Wight. Grotesque, visionary tycoon Sir Jack Pitman takes the saying literally and does exactly that. He constructs on the island 'The Project', a vast heritage centre containing everything 'English', from Big Ben to Stonehenge, from Manchester United to the white cliffs of Dover. The project is monstrous, risky, and vastly successful. In fact, it gradually begins to rival 'Old' England and even threatens to supersede it... One of Barnes's finest and funniest novels, England, England calls into question the idea of replicas, truth vs fiction, reality vs art, nationhood, myth-making, and self-exploration.
PortraitJulian Barnes is the author of eleven novels, including Metroland, Flaubert's Parrot, Arthur & George and most recently The Sense of an Ending, which won the 2011 Man Booker Prize for Fiction. He has also written three books of short stories, Cross Channel, The Lemon Table and Pulse; and three collections of journalism, Letters from London, Something to Declare and The Pedant in the Kitchen. His work has been translated into more than thirty languages. In France he is the only British writer to have won both the Prix Medicis (for Flaubert's Parrot) and the Prix Femina (for Talking it Over). In 2004 he received the Austrian State Prize for European Literature, and in 2011 he was awarded the David Cohen Prize for Literature. He lives in London.
Pressestimmen"Runs at glorious full tilt...delightful stuff" Independent "A brilliant, Swiftian fantasy" The Economist "There is no more intelligent writer on the literary scene. In this novel, he is also moving. He has written nothing more poignant and enticing" -- John Carey Sunday Times "Not only a very funny satire about England and the world... He has also skilfully dissected the discomforting ways in which we have all grown to accept, and even depend on, illusion" Wall Street Journal "Few writers think and talk so beguiling" -- Zoe Heller Independent on Sunday

We have constructed a new humidity generator that produces gas streams of known moisture content at temperatures from 85 °C to 200 °C, absolute pressures from 0.2 MPa to 1.6 MPa, and relative humidities from 10 % to 90 %. The generator produces a moist gas stream by injecting fixed-rate streams of dry gas and liquid water into a vaporizer, where the water evaporates into the gas. The gas stream passes into a re-entrant RF cavity, which serves as our reference hygrometer, and then a test chamber. The present standard uncertainty of the RF hygrometer is 0.6 %, limited by uncertainty of literature values for the polarizability of water. Dry nitrogen gas purging the pressure transducer line also combines with the moist gas stream downstream of the test chamber and flows through one of a set of capillaries. Modulation of gas flow through the fixed flow impedance of the capillary gives a simple method for controlling pressure. Individual insulated, temperature-controlled aluminum ovens enclose each major component. A larger oven encloses these ovens and connecting tubing. To minimize corrosion, critical components are constructed of high-nickel alloys. The small total volume (< 1 L) and small flow rate (<0.5 L/min) reduce operational hazards from steam scalding or from gas explosion.

It'd be all too easy to title this little article, "Why I Like Jack Kirby", but that's not the point. It's a given that if you're of a certain age then you automatically must like Kirby and his art or you're an idiot. Generations of people grew up with Kirby's artwork in their comic books, be it the Marvel Silver Age or when he crossed over to DC in the early 1970s and attempted to revolutionise the comic book world there. Virtually every artist I've spoken to has sang the praises of Kirby and rightly so. The man was a true visionary. That a company, Marvel, could form an empire on the back of characters that he either created or co-created with Stan Lee (and let's face it, we may never know the extent of each man's involvement) and thrive for over five decades since speaks volumes. The Fantastic Four, the X-Men, The Avengers, Thor, Iron Man...the list is almost endless. However all of that bypassed me.
I first found Jack Kirby in the early 1980s. In Australia we had a variety of different comic books to read. We had the American originals, lovely colour comics that used to cost anywhere from forty to seventy five cents. We had the reprint material, large DC reprints, which, for the most part, I found dull and stagnant (the exceptions were when I'd buy a Batman volume with the likes of Neal Adams, Michael Netzer, Don Newton, Gene Colan, Michael Golden, Marshall Rogers and others, but they were the exception and not the rule). We also had little, digest sized Marvel reprints, along with magazine sized Marvel reprints and the Newtons. These were the comic books I grew up with. The Marvel reprints were full of the stuff of legends. Artists like Alan Weiss, Gene Colan, John Buscema, Jim Starlin, John Byrne, Frank Brunner, Ross Andru, John Romita, Gil Kane all captured my attention and imagination via these black and white reprints. I loved them and still do. Indeed in recent times I've amassed a collection of both the digest and magazine sized Yaffa reprints and at last count I had over a few hundred of each sized and I'm still adding.
Not that I was unaware of Kirby. Every so often I'd see a story with the oddest artwork I'd seen. It was, well, different, but it didn't excite as much as the time when the second hand store I used to frequent sold me the entire run of Iron Fist by Byrne for five cents a book, along with a healthy pile of X-Men comics, as drawn by Dave Cockrum and Byrne. Loved those books. However one my friends at school was doing his best to turn me onto Kirby to the point of giving me his (then) latest work, Devil Dinosaur. I couldn't get into it at all. It was near impossible for me to read, the dialogue wasn't any good (in my opinion) and the artwork was, well, not as good as Byrne or Starlin. I gave the comics back and moved on, slightly confused as to what all the fuss was about.
Then one fine day I found myself skipping school (can't remember why) and decided to engage in my favourite pass time, buying and reading comic books. I visited my local newsagent (now long gone) and was captivated by these Fantastic Four covers. I fished out my money and bought them all and sat down to read them. The first book I read contained the entire FF/Daredevil vs Dr Doom cross over and it stunned me no end. It knocked me out.
What captivated me was the sheer power of the story and the incredible artwork. The entire three issue saga seemed to be one long issue for me, indeed in Australia three part stories were often presented that way in the local reprints. Splash pages would be edited out and the whole thing would run as one long, 64 page story. In a way we were reading self contained graphic novels before they became the norm in the industry. Even so, after this initial exposure, I wanted more Kirby.
By this stage I was frequenting comic shops in Adelaide where I lived. I'd visit them about once a month as it used to cost me too much in both time and money to visit the city of Adelaide itself - I lived a good hour and change away from where I wanted to be. As such I missed out on the Pacific Comics material, such as Captain Victory or Silver Star, but I did get a good vibe when I walked into a shop and saw Kirby's artwork on a new DC book, titled 'Super Powers'. I got very excited indeed at this discovery and bought a copy, along with my usual grab bag of Australian reprints. With the insults of the comic book dealer in my ears (you see even today such reprints are looked down upon from most Aussie comic book dealers as being an inferior product not worthy of selling or collecting. The majority of the stores here won't carry the '70s/'80s reprint material - they couldn't carry them then and they rarely carry them now. It's only recently when they've discovered that there's people out there who'll pay good money for these books that some dealers sell them. Before that they'd merely throw such comics in bins - and I'm not joking with this, at least three dealers have told me that they'd rather throw Australian reprint comics in the garbage rather than be seen selling them, such is the snobbery that exists in the world of comic book collecting) I went home and cracked the cover.
Again I was disappointed. I could see how this stuff looked like the same style of art of the reprints that I had, but it looked more like bad Rich Buckler than Jack Kirby to me. Frankly I couldn't see what the fuss was all about. I'd also started to read books and fanzines about the industry as a whole and come to realise that Kirby was one of the most influential comic book artists of all time. Frankly, and being honest, I saw none of that with the Super Powers book. I mentioned this to my pal who suggested that I read the 4th World Saga. I borrowed some books, bought some others and sat down and started to...laugh! The art was great, stunning in fact. This was the Kirby that I'd discovered reading Fantastic Four, Avengers and Captain America, but the dialogue was incredible. Incredibly bad that is. I couldn't take it seriously and found that I could only read it by looking at it and not actually reading the words on the page. Then it was better than fine. Otherwise it wasn't readable, to me anyway. I'm now well aware that quite a few people prefer this material over anything else as it's 'pure' Kirby. For me it's just more proof that Kirby needed at least an editor, or someone to script his books. I gave up on it.
But I never gave up on Kirby. As the years passed I found more and more of his work and found that I liked it and liked it a lot. The artists and writers that I grew up all cited Kirby in various interviews that I devoured. John Byrne loved the guy, as did others, and even if I couldn't see any Kirby in their artwork I could see the influences. Mind you anyone that does 'draw like Kirby' eventually resorts to swipes, such was Kirby's style and influence. Steve Rude is the closest artist I've seen to drawing like Kirby without actually stealing his work, others, well the less said the better.
Years would pass and every so often I'd try my hardest to read the DC material, but I just couldn't do it - it wasn't something I could get into. People I'd know would insult me and say that it was just me, that this stuff was Kirby's best work - artistically you could argue that point, but as for the words? Nah...still can't read them without either laughing or giving up. Visually it's great - the Demon material leaves me breathless, but that's about it.
I love the old Kirby, well the middle aged Kirby I guess. His work at Marvel moves me each time I read it and I can read it endlessly, over and over. I still crack out the reprints and get stuck into them. I love doing it and hope I always will. I may have discovered Kirby in the reverse, that is I went from the people he influenced to the man himself (other people, like my pal Alan Weiss, have told me that's logical, he went from Kirby onwards, but being a bit younger, I went from people like Alan Weiss to Kirby backwards) but at least I made that trip.
Eventually I'd make it my goal to own some original Kirby artwork. It's not happened yet, but I have come damn close. Last year I bought four pages of stat artwork that was prepared for the UK comic book titled Mighty World Of Marvel. It's not original art, per-se, but seeing that Kirby Fantastic Four pages can fetch five figure sums, easily, paying a few hundred for the stats was a bargain for me. In 2006 we found a Kirby sketch in a magazine, scanned it and had my other great mate, Norm Breyfogle, ink it. He took one look at it and decided to ink two copies, one being faithful to the original pencils, the other being a 'fixed' version (or, as someone said, it was Breyfoglized). Oddly enough both images look right. Even though Kirby had made some basic errors (the shield of Captain America was askew and frankly Kirby could never draw Batman) when the art was inked to the letter, so to speak, it still looked right. There was something about Kirbys artwork, even with it's distortions and problems it still looks odd when it's altered. I've always wondered if this is why some artists were damn good for inking Kirby, and others weren't. Then there were artists like Barry Windsor-Smith or Joe Sinnott, who, when they inked Kirby, made the art look like their own, as opposed to merely tracing the lines that Kirby laid down. Thus, the second, 'Breyfoglized' version of the art looks more like Norm than it does Kirby. Go figure. Still I do own something that looks great on the wall.
All in all I can see why people adore Jack Kirby. I might have came in late compared to some, I might like the art of others more than Kirby. I might find the lives of others more interesting than Kirby's own life (hence I've written books on Ross Andru, Mike Esposito and Jim Mooney), but that's taking nothing away from the man. Virtually every artist I've spoken to over the years have lauded Kirby as a pioneer, and I agree with them - in an industry that seems to place the 'visionary' label on artists who go as quickly as they come, Kirby was the true visionary. he laid down the template for many to follow by helping to create a universe and leaving characters that not only outlived him, but will outlive almost anyone that reads this. He did to comic books what Walt Disney did to animation, what Charles M Schulz did to syndicated strips, he not only defined a genre, he made a genre. How many people can make that claim?
And that's why I don't like Jack Kirby, I adore him!

Most students stick to the straight and narrow when it comes to picking their course at uni. "I was good at English (or maths, or chemistry) at school, I'll do that." It's not surprising – there are tens of thousands of courses out there, and it's pretty intimidating trying to get your head around equine studies with French, let alone the difference between a combined honours and a sandwich course.
But it can pay off to take a walk on the wild side, when it comes to making your choices. Take Grant Douglas. It was only after flicking through a university prospectus that he found out about the ethical hacking and countermeasures course offered by Abertay University – a degree he soon realised was right for him.
"I was constantly messing around with computers and tinkering with the way things work, so I guess the path was always laid out for me. But, to be honest, when at school, I was completely oblivious to the fact that ethical hacking could be a real degree."
The course wasn't something his careers adviser knew about either: "I think this is largely due to the age of the course."
But by virtue of being new and niche, Douglas says his degree helped him find work immediately after graduating.
"We were taught how to investigate computer networks, identify design flaws and security issues, and test the security of websites as well as commonly used computer software."
Douglas also learned how to write software, program mobile applications, and develop websites – skills that industry is crying out for. He's now working at Cigital, one of the world's largest software security consultancy firms.
A lack of careers advice in schools means many young people don't know about the range of degree programmes on offer – especially new or specialised courses, says Alex Stevens, professor of criminal justice at the University of Kent.
"School teachers and students tend to focus, understandably, on the well-known disciplines of undergraduate study."
So how should you begin your search for the elusive perfect course? Stevens reckons painstaking detective work is called for.
"To find less mainstream courses, browse through the lists of courses that are available at the universities you're interested in, or [if you're aiming to get a place this September] on the Ucas Clearing vacancy list.
"If you see one that draws your attention, have a look at the course details online. You can also check it out at the Unistats website. If there's anything you're unsure about, email or phone the relevant admissions officer."
As you search, think of the end result you're hoping to achieve. Three years of creative exploration? Or a course that leads to a job?
It's always wise to research the graduate employment prospects for courses that appeal to you, says careers adviser Vince Peart.
What it is that you want to do when you graduate?
Labour market statistics are available on the National Careers Service website, and these can help you work out what jobs are like in the sector you're interested in.
"Look at the job profile section of the National Careers website, or on Prospects. If you type in your degree title it'll tell you the type of jobs people go into," says Peart.
"It's also worth looking at what the job opportunities are like in your university town, because lots of students will choose to settle down there after graduating."
Finding accurate information about the graduate job market is essential, agrees Ken Foreman, music business programme leader at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance.
He says many parents and teachers have outdated beliefs about which sectors are open to young people, and points to the music industry as an example. "Before, the music world was a small and clique industry – it's now the third largest in the UK and there are career paths available.
"These might not necessarily be on the stage, but for people who want to work in the growing area of music content. You might work for a mobile phone company, for example, acquiring content for their packages."
The way you are taught and assessed on courses like music business is often more practical than on a traditional degrees,
"Music business is a rigorous academic course – it's a validated degree programme – but you do a lot of practical, industry-related work as well.
"Building networks is just as valuable as getting the academic qualification. Music isn't like in other industries where you get a degree and then, once you've graduated, you write letters asking for a job. You have to make contacts while you're studying."
Nick Davy, higher education manager at the Association of Colleges says students who would prefer to study a vocational course should also look at the opportunities available through further education colleges.
"There's a belief that the only way to achieve a qualification is by doing a full-time three year degree at a university – actually there are lots of other ways."
College-based higher education courses can be far cheaper than campus-based university courses, says Davy: "Because colleges spend less money on research they charge much lower tuition fees. Many students also live within reasonable travelling distance of college, which means they save on living expenses."
"Education in colleges tends to be more vocational – for example, foundation degrees that are developed with employers. There's often a work experience or placement included during the course that prepares students for the job market."
The key thing is doing your research, says Peart. "Talk to course leaders, explore the content of the modules, check out the Ucas website and university prospectuses. Pick something that you're going to enjoy and excel in."
But remember, university isn't just about finding a job, it's about developing as a person and pursuing your interests.
"It's much better to take a degree in something that you're passionate about – you don't want to do a course just because you think it's more likely to lead to a job, and then come out with a lower grade because you haven't enjoyed the experience."
Elementary, my dear student.

Representatives from Wauwatosa's teachers union headed to Madison today to show their opposition to the proposals in Gov. Scott Walker's budget-repair bill, continuing a string of protests the group has been involved with this week.
After meeting with Wauwatosa School District officials Thursday, the union sent one representative from each district school to Madison today to voice their disapproval for Walker's proposal, which would require union employees to pay a greater share of pension and health insurance costs and lose their ability to collectively bargain during future contract negotiations.
Members of the union also participated in marches outside Walker's Wauwatosa home on Tuesday night and state Sen. Alberta Darling's Menomonee Falls office on Wednesday, said Debbie Brent, president of the Wauwatosa Education Association.
Brent said union members also will attend a rally Saturday at the state capitol.

Notts County 0 PNE 1
Paul Huntington grabbed the only goal as North End progressed through to the Northern Final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy with a 1-0 win at Meadow Lane.
Huntington bundled the ball home with his fifth goal in just two months to open the scoring 20 minutes into the opening period.
The home side saw two headers cleared off the line and hit the bar in the same first half attack, but otherwise Roy Carroll was the busier keeper, making numerous fine saves to deny North End making the margin of victory bigger.
Manager Simon Grayson, on his 45th birthday, made five changes to the side that drew with Milton Keynes Dons the previous weekend, with Josh Brownhill, Jack King and Alan Browne making up a three man midfield and Andy Little making his first start since 13th September.
The game started with a bang with the Magpies almost ahead inside 50 seconds, skipper Tom Clarke needed to make a fine block to deny Curtis Thomspon, playing in a forward role as part of a 3-5-2 for Shaun Derry's men, whose vicious shot was on target.
Hoqwever, the chances then began to fall to PNE. Josh Brownhill certainly had his shooting boots on, twice forcing former PNE trialist Roy Carroll into fine diving stops in the space of four minutes, the latter on 14 minutes getting through the Northern Irish international, but going wide of the right hand post.
But it was the prolific centre half Paul Huntington who grabbed the goal 20 minutes in. Kyel Reid won a corner on the left and then went over to the right to cross. The ball came over and Carroll seemed to lose it as the North End No.23 bundled it home from five yards out at the back post. The goalkeeper was livid, feeling he had been fouled by Jermaine Beckford, but referee Nigel Miller was having none of his complaints.
The goal awakened the home side who then had much the better chances in the second half of the opening period. Firstly on loan Canadian Michael Petrasso rushed from midfield and flashed a shot across goal but wide and then just after the half hour mark an almightly scramble followed a Gary Jones corner with both Andy Little and Alan Browne both heading off the line sandwiching a chance where County skipper Haydn Hollis headed against the bar.
This wake-up call re-ignited the yellows offensively as just before half-time a quick free kick to Browne down right saw the Irishman cross to Beckford; his volley bounced down and Carroll claimed off Brownhill's head as North End thought a second could be on the cards.
The rain began to fall as the second period got underway And it began with an excellent counter from the Lilywhites as Kyel Reid ran 70 yards before putting Hollis on his behind and forcing Carroll to make a fine save to force his shot away from his near post.
With ten minutes of the half gone a gilt-edged chance fell the way of Jermaine Becford, who had been put through by Alan Browne's powerful run and threaded ball, but the on loan front man scuffed the shot with Roy Carroll closing him down on the edge of the box, allowing the County No.1 to claim.
The yellows were able to play counter-attacking football and Alan Browne burst from his own half on 58 minutes, holding off three tackles before again Carroll was North End's nemesis, pushing his shot away to safety after the Irishman's 15 yard strike.
The home side changed formation on the hour mark to match PNE's 4-3-3, with striker Ronan Murray replacing centre half Taylor McKenzie.
The home side and their fans thought they were level on 65 minutes as McLaughlin got free in a left hand channel and raced away onto a flick on from Ronan Murray and lofted the ball over Stuckmann, but it fell an inch the wrong side of the post much to the delight of the North End faithful.
The last 25 minutes were fraught, but with very few chances as North End held on to set up a two-legged Northern Final against Walsall in January.
Notts County line-up
: Carroll, Adams (Hall, 75), Smith, Hollis (c), G Thompson, Jones, McKenzie (Murray, 60), C Thompson, Edwards, McLaughlin, Petrasso. Subs not used: Pilkington, Traore, Harrad.
PNE line-up
: Stuckmann, Wiseman, Laird, King, Clarke (c), Huntington, Little, Browne, Beckford (Humphrey, 75), Brownhill, Reid. Subs not used: Jones, Gallagher, Woods, Welsh.

Last week, we exclusively reported that Verizon planned to begin throttling the top 5% of unlimited data users with 4G LTE phones come October 1, a move which Verizon has since confirmed. The throttling is a part of Big Red's "Network Optimization" policy, which up until now has only affected 3G customers with unlimited data. As you can imagine, this news didn't exactly excite those with unlimited data plans who have been long-time Verizon customers. According to a letter sent to Verizon Wireless CEO Dan Mead, FCC chairman Tom Wheeler isn't excited either. (more…)
Tiered Data
T-Mobile Launches Own "Best Ever" Family Plan, 10GB of Data Plus Unlimited Talk/Text for $100
T-Mobile's John Legere is just as sick of seeing AT&T ads for their "Best ever prices" family plan as you are. To try and directly compete with that plan, T-Mobile will launch their own best ever-like pricing, with a new family plan that runs just $100 per month for four lines, yet includes the same 10GB of data as the competitors, along with unlimited talk and text.
For comparison, T-Mobile put together a chart to show you how this new plan beats out not only AT&T, but also similar plans from Verizon and Sprint. Since the chart was created by T-Mo, you have to take it for what it is. However, it does show the major points here, like price, which is $60 lower and the 2.5GB of data per line, with no overages. T-Mobile is still giving away unlimited data and text in over 120 countries with this plan, plus they are letting you stream music from many of the top music services without it counting against your data. (more…)
T-Mobile Uncarrier 5.0 – Test Drive Phones and Service Free for 7 Days, Wideband and VoLTE to More Markets
During T-Mobile's newest Uncarrier event, titled 5.0, the company is making its latest, potentially industry-changing moves that start by offering customers a 7-day free test drive of their network with an iPhone 5s. They also announced that their Wideband LTE is now in 16 markets and VoLTE is in 15 total (here is the full list). (more…)
Thursday Poll: Tiered or Unlimited Data?
Back in April of 2012, almost a year after we started to see tiered data plans takeover the wireless market, we asked our readers to vote in a poll, letting us know if they were still on unlimited data or part of a tier. Since then, the industry has continued to change, with the introduction of shared data pools and unlimited plans that offer up a limit on fast data before throttling you.
We know that many of you are doing whatever you can to hang onto those old, grandfathered unlimited data plans while others have had to jump ship, whether it be to upgrade or because they found what they considered to be a good enough deal. So some have let tiers take over, others have at least gone the unlimited-plus-throttling route. What we want to know today, is where you fall? Are you still hanging on to full unlimited or have you had to switch it up?
Feel free to let us know what your current plan looks like in the comments.
Verizon Introduces 60, 80, and 100GB Small Business More Everything Plans
Small business owners, starting today, you now have three new MORE Everything plan options from Verizon to choose from. The plans include 60GB, 80GB, and 100GB shareable data packages, along with connectivity of up to 50 devices, "the most offered on any small business mobile plan at this time."
These plans also include unlimited domestic and international messaging while in the US, plus unlimited voice. If you need to call Canada or Mexico, shared voice minutes can be added on for an additional charge. (more…)
Verizon Wants Month-to-Month Customers to Move to MORE Everything Starting April 17
Friends with unlimited data on Verizon who are on month-to-month contracts, are you ready to give up your precious plan for the land of the tiers? Big Red, starting on April 17, is willing to let you into their new MORE Everything plans at exclusive pricing for a limited time. What's that, did you stop reading? Can't say I blame you, but here is the deal anyway. (more…)
Verizon Matches AT&T's $160 10GB Family Plan, Adjusts Discount
At only a month or so old, Verizon is already adjusting its MORE Everything data plans to better align with their biggest competitor, AT&T. You may recall AT&T's headline grabbing move at the beginning of February, where it announced its "Best Ever Prices" for a family of four, with a 10GB $160 plan leading the charge. Verizon reached out today to note that they had recently made a move to match this offer. (more…)
Verizon Introduced a New $75 Single Line 2GB Plan, Secret 2GB $60 "SAVE" Plan Too
Verizon quietly introduced a new $75 single line plan today that gives customers 2GB of monthly data, along with unlimited talk and text. According to sources of ours, this new plan is a "limited time promotion," though we have no word on when it will end.
If that plan doesn't sound like the deal for you, know that Verizon also has a semi-secret option called the "SAVE" plan that is $60 for 2GB of data, plus unlimited talk and text. You need to qualify for it, but it's worth knowing about should you be in the market for discounted service and a new phone. (more…)

Microsoft is currently holding a special event in Shanghai, China, where Microsoft's corporate vice-president of Devices, Panos Panay, has just announced the completely redesigned new Surface Pro, which Microsoft says is "upgraded, versatile, and exceptionally powerful, with iconic Surface design."
The "beautifully crafted" new device is "the lightest, the best sounding, the fastest…the quietest," Surface Pro, according to the launch video from Microsoft.

Apple's partnership with Nike continues today with the sports brand announcing four new Apple Watch bands that will be available on June 1 at Nike's online and retail stores and also via Apple and resellers a few days afterwards. Nike says that the four colourways are inspired by the Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit "Day to Night" collection, which "celebrates runners whenever they choose to run - at twilight, sunset and everything in between. Each of the colours is inspired by a shade of the sky, from dawn to dusk, and allows runners to - for the first time - make a statement by matching their Apple Watch Nike+ bands to their footwear."
The Sports Bands cost $49 as standard, and although made for the Apple Watch Nike+, they will fit any Apple Watch model.
This follows on from the launch of the Apple Watch NikeLab on April 27, and also Nike's Rosche-and-Air-Force-1-branded iPhone 7 cases.

MacRumors reports on new images that have been posted today by Benjamin Geskin of two cases for the forthcoming 2017 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models, with Geskin noting that there will be "no new iPad mini this year." as has been widely expected.
The cases reveal a couple of details about the forthcoming iPads. Firstly, the cutout for the microphone is on the top rear of both cases, just as it is with the recently released 9.7-inch iPad, and not on the right side of the iPad, just above the volume buttons, where it is located on the current 12.9-inch iPad Pro.
Secondly, the cases also have several bigger cutouts that are presumably for four speakers: two on the top of the case and two on the bottom, either side of the Lightning port.
The cases also have inserts for stowing your Apple Pencil, as well as cutouts for the 3.5mm headphone jack, which is set to remain on the new 10.5-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models.

Back in February news emerged of a new Pokémon game for iOS called Splash! Magikarp, featuring the endlessly flapping fish. After the initial news about the game broke, it all went a little quiet, but Nintendo Life reports today that the game is finally on its way, but with a new name, Pokémon: Magikarp Jump, the same name as the popular mini game in Nintendo 64 Pokémon Stadium.
Magikarp's faithful fans around the world will have to be patient a little longer before they get their fins on Magikarp Jump, however, as currently it is only available on soft launch in the Italian App Store, and there's no news of an official release date in other territories as yet.
According to Serebii.Net, the simple gameplay sees you catching and raising Magikarp and then pitting them against others to see who can jump the highest. You can use various rods to catch Magikarp of different colours and sizes, all with their own abilities. Take your Magikarp through the leagues, feeding and training them to make them strong so that they can jump higher and higher. You'll also get to use other Support Pokémon to help your Magikarp.
Clearly, the Pokémon Company is having a bit of a Magikarp moment, having also just released the Magikarp Song video on the Official Pokémon YouTube channel, which has already had almost 2 million views in just 8 days. The lyrics are, of course, flat out trolling the poor Magikarp, with lines like "so weak that it's sad, really really sad."
All this Magikarp madness is a very smart move from The Pokémon Company, coming up to what it hopes will be another massive summer for Pokémon Go. When Pokémon Go became a worldwide cultural phenomenon last year, some of the earliest tweets and Instagram pictures that kicked off the whole craze were of Magikarp in the wild, appearing in frying pans on people's stoves, flailing around on the pavement, and so on.
Following the release of Ghosts 'n Goblins Mobile on iOS back in March, Capcom's classic side-scrolling action-platformer Ghouls 'n Ghosts has just arrived in the App Store. The story follows on immediately after the events of Ghosts 'n Goblins, with the side-scrolling arcade action authentically reproduced for iPhone and iPad.
As ever, the star of the game is the brave Sir Arthur, who must fight his way through the ghouls and ghosts of the title, and other assorted evil denizens of the underworld, and he certainly doesn't have an easy time of things, as you'll remember if you ever played the arcade or console game in the past. However, Capcom has made some improvements to the game to make it a little easier to play on devices with touch screens. Here are some of the key features of the remake:

According to a report on DigiTimes today, via MacRumors, Apple is increasing production of the forthcoming 10.5-inch iPad Pro, with sources in Apple's Taiwanese supply chain expecting shipments for the 10.5-inch iPad Pro to rise to 600,000 units in July, a rise of 100,000 units from the current 500,000. Annual shipments are expected to reach 5 million this year.
As to when exactly the 10.5-inch iPad might be launched, that is still very much up in the air, with KGI Securities' Ming-Chi Kuo recently saying that there's a more than 70% chance that Apple will announce the new tablet at its WWDC in June. However, the equally well-sourced John Gruber of Daring Fireball said back in March that the 10.5-inch iPad is "a 2018 thing, not a 2017 thing. Or, at the very earliest, a late 2017 thing - something they could unveil in October."
DigiTimes' sources also said that they have word that an upgraded 12.9-inch iPad Pro could enter mass production this June, with stable shipments in the third quarter. It's also rumoured that expected sales of the newly released 9.7-inch iPad will accelerate Apple's decision to phase out the iPad mini 4.
