Has Apple changed in the one year since Steve Jobs passed away?

On this day, we mark exactly one year since probably the most influential person in tech, Apple's head Steve Jobs passed away…

An iPhone bigger than the 'ideal' 3.5" and an upcoming iPad at the 7" 'tweener' size Jobs declared would be "dead on arrival". . . yea the company hasn't changed at all. /s

I think they've changed in some minor ways.
#1 Their device security has gone to crap, everything is leaking long before release, Steve would have never let that happen. He'd go down to China personally and choke out some Foxconn employees for leaking his products. The fact that Samsung had no leaks with the GS3, and the next Nexus has had practically no leaks blows me away.
#2 They care more about the image that they take better care of their assembly worker life conditions within their factories.
#3 They are more willing to bend to what the consumer desires. Larger iPhone screen and smaller iPad screens, mucking up the screen resolution consistency that made their products so streamlined to develop for. One issue with bending to consumer desires, the profitability(through mass production) of keeping screen sizes small and consistent has gone down. So they gotta make that profit back...in Lightning adapter sales. Lol.
I think I'm correct in my prediction right after Steve died. Apple will(add has) become just like ever other average electronics company. They are going to focus on competing with their competitors head on instead of blazing off in different directions. And also follow market trends and consumer desire more. They've lost their visionary, but they are still full of talented people. So you'll see some great products still coming out of them. But you won't see the same huge directional changing innovation that Steve bought to Apple. I hate Apple to the core and even disliked Steve for his aggressive dictator like hold on their ecosystem, but I can still appreciate the innovation he bought the smartphone industry. If there were more people like Steve the computer industry would be much more advanced today than it already is.

If thats the case.....its 50/50 or a no vote.
They were still trying to sue the pants off of ppl since Jobs died. They have some issues with iOS 6 (maps) and the iPhone 5 (purple halo, lines on keyboards, build issues)
Claimed some features were first for the iPhone 5, when its been on Android since at least 2010, and was probably on Win Mo phones too.
yet the iPhone 5 is the most amazing phone created.
That doesnt look like 100% change to me. Products? I agree somewhat. The company as a whole? Well...I voted no.

Still the same low class products with a high class price.

dont forget the SUING!
35. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
No, it's not lie if person doesn't know that, because the Being of inquiry is based on perception of product, not some external and measurable value.
The true function of the product is to be percieved as a good product.
But, I will nevertheless ask you to state the things in which Apple customers were cheated. A couple of them will be enough to make a point of whether they were trully cheated.
3. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Sorry if it will offend someone but in my opinion Apple is the same pathetic company.
6. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
No, it's only closed, manipulative and rigorous, not pathetic. Pathetic are Samsung and Nokia, those who try to keep the pace with pathetic strategies like brutal insults and comparisons with Apple etc.
9. No_Nonsense (unregistered)
If advertising is pathetic, Apple should go out of business right now.
11. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
I never really understood how it is possible for a company to advertise themsleves by mocking the competiton.
In my country it is forbidden as tobacco ads.
12. No_Nonsense (unregistered)
Bashing/taking a dig at other brands is fine IMO. But, well what Apple does isn't. By which I mean, marketing every new thing like the best thing since sliced bread, patent trolling, refusing to acknowledge faults in previous products, falsely advertising products like iPhone 5 being the thinnest phone ever, yada yada is not good. Comparatively, Sammy and Nokia ads are better.
13. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Tell lies, disrespect and ignore customers isn't it pathetic???
I know business is dirty thing but there still is such thing like a business ethics about which Apple also has forgot long time ago and this is also pathetic.

Exactly. Desparation drives anyone crazy. No one to blame here..
22. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
I'm sorry, but Apple users don't feel cheated, disrespected and lied to. If they did, Apple wouldn't be the richest company in the world with 97% customer satisfaction. Maybe you would wish they are dissatisfied, but they aren't. You are just projecting your enthusiast needs on average users.
23. eisenbricher (Posts: 973; Member since: 09 Aug 2012)
Damn, he's pointing to the PC vs Mac ads. Those are mostly to blame for this trend of insult-advertizing.
24. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
Actually both Sammy and Nokia had great flops with ads recently. Samsung was bragging with their specs and perfromnce just to be defeated or equalled by "underspeced" iPhone in perfomance, and Nokia showed how honest they are with those image stabilization commercials. Then they continued to mock Apple, their buyers and color of devices, in lack of inspiration.
Please, be objective.
27. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
Yes, Apple did that over Microsoft when they were still underground. That WAS pathetic, and it clearly shows the when some company feels small and frustrated.
31. PAPINYC (banned) (Posts: 2315; Member since: 30 Jul 2011)
iDisAgree, Apple has changed a great deal, par example, it used to be that Apple's iPhone releases would always be accompanied by not more than one defect per refresh. Unfortunately, as Apple moves forward without Steve Jobs, their iPhone 5 "refresh" is riDDled with iDefects, e.g.,
1. MisguiDing Maps
2. Lavenderly Hued photos (very feminine, great for Metrosexuals)
3. Screeching lines across their virtual keyboard (a real iSore)
4. Dings, bangs, scrapes and bruises fresh out-of-the-iBox
5. ETC, still waiting on more iDefects to be discovered.
It's a shame what's happened to Apple, really it is.
33. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
"I'm sorry, but Apple users don't feel cheated, disrespected and lied to."
Yes, I agree with you they don't feel cheated, disrespected and lied to. But in this case feelings and reality are two different things.
Let's say that I lied for an person and that person did not realized that I lied, then it doesn't count as a lie and doesn't count as pathetic?
34. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Usually after new smartphone release you can check YouTube and find customers complaints about one or two main problems. But when I have searched for "iPhone 5 Problems" in YouTube and Google, I was SHOCKED, I have found so much people complaining about so much different iPhone 5 problems. Not one or two main problems but DOZENS of different problems! Maybe it is just me, but I have never before saw so much complaints about such big amount of different problems for one single smartphone after so short time after release!
There is a bunch of different screen problems like a flickering, bad screen sensitivity, even yellow marks on the screen or flashing.
There is bunch of complaints about antenna problems.
There is complaints about Ambient Light Sensor problems.
There is complaints about various sound problems.
There is complaints about purple tints in pictures.
There is complaints about iPhone 5 scratches out of the box.
There is complaints about WiFi problems.
There is complaints about keyboard problems.
There is even a problem called "Light Leak".
And so on and on...
And I'm even not talking about iOS 6 or Apple Maps problems...
And you know what is the most pathetic in this case, that Apple already knew about some of these problems even before release. For example about build quality problems they knew even before release but they just dont care about that...
Watch video:
"Foxconn Worker Claims New iPhone 5 is Poorly Made"
And you know what Apple's response is the same as always: "IT IS NORMAL!"
Purple tints on Apple iPhone 5 pictures is the camera's normal behavior or iPhone 5 scratches out of the box are also normal...
And everyone who don't believe what I say about all these problems and or think that I'm just trolling, just go to YouTube and search for "iPhone 5 Problems" also you can find many complains on Google, just Google for it! ;)
And please don't say that I'm trolling because:
1) It is my opinion.
2) It is based on real customers complaints out of the internet.
3) It is based on many articles in different web sites.
So it is not fake story created by me!
39. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Remember when Apple was claiming that iOS 6 is "The 'world's most advanced mobile operating system." - Isn't this called a lie?
Remember when Apple was claiming that Apple Maps "The most beautiful, powerful mapping service ever." - Isn't this called a lie?
Remember Apple response to customers complaints due to antenna problems "You're holding it wrong!" - Isn't that pathetic disrespect, disregard and lie for customer?
Remember Apple response to customers "Use iMessage instead of SMS!" when there was SMS security problems. - Isn't that pathetic disrespect, disregard and arrogance?
Remember about Phone 5 scratches out of the box and what Apple's response to customers complaints "It is normal!" - Isn't that pathetic disrespect, disregard and lie for customer?
Or remember about Purple tints on Apple iPhone 5 pictures, Apple's response also was "It is normal!" - Isn't that pathetic disrespect, disregard and lie for customer?
Also Apple already knew about some iPhone 5 problems even before release. For example about build quality problems they knew even before release but they just dont care about that and I call it disrespect for customer!

"No, it's not lie if person doesn't know that..."
If perso who is lying doesn't know that he is lying, then it is not lie but in other way it is lie. Anyway Apple knows about all own lies. ;)
45. No_Nonsense (unregistered)
Sorry for posting it twice but anyways here's my reply:
I don't know which Samsung ad was a failure but Nokia did apologise for the ad fiasco. Apple didn't even bother to address the iphone 5 problems except the maps one. And in which way the iphone 5 trumps the S3? I'd like to know everything else than the android authority drop test and the first IP5 benchmark that appeared.
47. AppleConspiracy (Posts: 637; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
Cult things have tendency to be overblown in mass media out of proportions, and so are all those examples.
Apple is not doing anything more unethical than other companies that market themsleves, however they are under the microscope because it's trendy now to hate Apple.
Antennagate - overblown. I've never noticed somthing that bothers me.
Scratches - overblown. You'll se when things cool out a bit.
Purple tint - already proved false.
Foxconn worker - lie. media engineering.
Apple Maps - logical situation of any service provider, soon it will be right on track with others.
So, nothing strange enough to be actually catastrophic towards buyers. Nothing different than other companies' doings. They still percieve Apple products as great. But, as I said, everything of Apple is now under microscope, because tendency is like that.

Want to buy yourself a shirt at a cheaper price for your birthday or planning to procure equipment at a competitive rate to upgrade your manufacturing unit through the click of a mouse - just wait till April 30.
A new international e-commerce portal that offers a wide range of products from garments to industrial products manufactured by the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) sector in India is in the offing.
Unlike other e-commerce sites, this portal, designed and created by the National Small Industries Corporation (NSIC), will cater exclusively to the needs and demands of the MSMEs.
"This site will provide e-marketing platform to the MSMEs on which they can exhibit their range of products, get brands, certification and close deals with their counterparts abroad," NSIC chairman and managing director, HP Kumar told Hindustan Times. "The consumers will get a wide choice of products at a cheaper price in comparison to buying from the stores."The entrepreneurs will get the opportunity to procure market information and simultaneously interact with the entrepreneurs in other parts of the globe, apart from participating in tenders.
While, the portal acts as an MSME directory, it shall have a quality check mechanism based on customers' feedback and automatic online grading of companies and products.
"In case of receiving any complaints on quality of the product or supply or poor performance, we'll remove the vendor from the site," said Kumar.

Despite his lack of match fitness, he has nonetheless joined up with the England squad ahead of Wednesday's fixture against Scotland.
With the Rooney situation now threatening to overshadow United's start to the season, Dwight Yorke has claimed that the stand-off would not been allowed to fester for so long had Sir Alex Ferguson still been in charge.
Yorke is good friends with Rooney and believes that United are "missing the point" in their current dealings with a player who simply wants to play regularly and feel valued.
Asked what would have happened under Ferguson, Yorke said: "I think the matter would have been resolved by now one way or the other. I feel he would have probably let him go by now. I know how brilliant he is but I think with all that Fergie came out and said – he said Wayne Rooney asked for a transfer, not playing him at key games at the right time – I think all of that would have built up.
"I know the kid. I know Wazza a little bit. He shares some stuff with myself. He just wants to play. Every player wants to feel loved and wanted. If he is not going to get it at United, he will seek it somewhere else.
"Until that is reinstalled back into his belief you won't see the best of him.
"That's up to the manager, that's the manager's job. That's why he is there, that's why he is getting paid the big bucks. I feel that once Rooney is in the position to do that, this year will be his best year."
Chelsea have had two bids rejected for Rooney, who has told Moyes he wants to leave, but Yorke does believe that he could be persuaded to stay. "Why not?" he said. "He's at the best club, he's at the right age. I feel Wayne Rooney has a lot to prove to himself and all the doubters out there. I've spent a little bit of time who him, he's eager to show he is not finished yet."
With Robin van Persie having turned 30 last week, Yorke also repeatedly pointed out that Rooney is still only 27. He has generally also had fewer injuries throughout his career than Van Persie.
"United are missing the point – at 27 you are coming into your prime," said Yorke. "We are not talking about a 30 or 31-year-old. He just wants to play. I feel the best side of his football is yet to come but you are not going to see that unless you are given time on the football pitch.
"He's a United player. I don't see much changing, I just simply feel that United can't afford to let him leave the football club. Not just to Chelsea but to anybody, I think he is that valuable as a player.
"I feel that he just wants to play the game and he has not been able to play the game in the way he likes playing the game. That free spirit, that go and play and express yourself."

There's a lot of talk in The Last Supper, too. Food and politics and death, yes. But mostly talk. That's what happens when you put a bunch of self-righteous liberal graduates around a dinner table. These aren't just any self-righteous liberal graduates, however. These ones have a Bernhard Goetz tinge about them. They've had enough of sitting back and doing nothing, and decide to lure a succession of right-wingers home for dinner, in a unique meal 'n' murder package that you won't find at your local Harvester.
A short way into the film, you realise that Title is not exactly enamoured of political correctness.
"I hate PC!" she exclaims. "It's sushi socialism. Despite being fairly liberal myself, the one thing I didn't want to do with the movie was say 'liberalism is good, conservatism is bad'. It's not that simple. I wanted to take on everyone. I despise political correctness, and I hate that pause where people are forced to check themselves before they laugh."
But presumably you've felt the same impotence and frustration that drives your characters to kill?
"That was my college career," she shrugs. "Just sitting around, bitching and moaning. What the movie hopefully says is: do something, don't just sit there."
She stops, realising where she has arrived. "I mean, don't kill anyone, obviously. But do something."
As The Last Supper's ethical conundrum demonstrates, Title likes a challenge. As if the film's budget and schedule weren't enough, Title was also moving house while shooting, and gave birth to a son just seven months ago. You'd be forgiven for expecting someone more bullish - a Kate Adie out of LA not El Salvador - instead of this modest chatterbox.
So what about that 18-day shoot then, Stacy - pretty amazing, huh?
"Oh, it's do-able," she assures me. "I made sure the cast had rehearsed. They don't do that much on big-budget movies. They just show up on set and rehearse on film. What a waste! If you saw the dailies for any big- budget movie, you would vomit."
She knows what she's talking about. She's been loitering with intent on film sets since before she can remember, tagging along with her father, who produced commercials. Consequently, her childhood memories feature a different kind of dolly than most people her age. She saw Michael Cimino in action years before Heaven's Gate got Hollywood's door slammed in his face, and watched Tony and Ridley Scott cutting their teeth in the days before she had any herself. The experience shows. One film, one Oscar-nominated short (Down on the Waterfront) and a pile of screenplays later, she's already got the business figured out. Now if only someone would produce one of the screenplays she's written with her husband, the "sort- of-famous" actor and Last Supper star Jonathan Penner.
It's not as if there isn't plenty to choose from. There are expensive action movies, like Payback, the one they polished off in 10 days when they got back from their honeymoon, and which Columbia paid an obscene amount of money for (it was once set to star Jean-Claude Van Damme). There's a sitcom pilot too, called Sitcom: The Pilot, about two sitcom writers locked in a room. Very post-modern. And Title's pride and joy, a horror movie called Dread.
"People cry when they read it, but no one will let us make it," she complains. "It's really frustrating, selling all these scripts but none of them getting made. It's like your life's in limbo." That feeling may not last. Judging by the promise of The Last Supper, you can expect Dread, Sitcom: The Pilot and Payback - Van Damme-less or not - to be arriving at a screen near you soon.
n 'The Last Supper', reviewed overleaf, opens Friday
- More about:
- Post-modernism
- Ridley Scott
- Supper

Best Hair Oil- Review & Giveaway
Remember back in the 80s when we used to think VO5 was the best hair oil? I remember those days of pouffy hair and dousing my locks with toxic chemicals…but those days are gone and most of us (hopefully) have moved on to a safer haircare regimen (and smaller hair!)
I've been a huge fan of coconut oil for a few years now, ever since I found out it was so incredibly good for you. Back in the day, coconut oil was portrayed as an unhealthy, saturated fat, but those of us "in the know" realize how truly miraculous this oil is.
It has hundreds of uses. Here's a sampling of a few of them:
- Use as face and body moisturizer
- Take 3-4 tablespoons for daily energy and fat burning fuel
- Bake with it in place of unhealthy canola oil
- Safe oil for frying as it has a high heat point
- Use as a natural deodorant

Tropical Traditions Gold Label Coconut Oil Review
I was so thrilled to receive a jar of Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil to review. I've tried many brands of coconut oil before and I must say TT's version is of the highest quality. It has a slightly coconuty, almost smoky flavor.
You really need to be careful of the coconut oil you purchase because not all companies take care with the production and manufacturing of the product as TT does. TT's coconut oil come from family farms in the Phillippines using traditional methods passed down for generations. This is the sort of coconut oil I want to be using!
So after all these years of eating coconut oil, baking, and cooking with it, it never once dawned on me to use it on my hair. I'd done olive oil hair treatments before with incredible results, so I thought, why not give coconut oil a try?
If you decide to do a coco oil hair treatment, here are a few things to remember:
- Apply the coconut oil to your hair, paying special attention to the roots (I'll tell you why in a minute)
- Apply the oil to dry hair
- Leave on for 30 minutes, an hour, or even overnight for some serious deep conditioning
- Cover hair with a shower cap or wrap your head in saran wrap to lock in heat to condition even more
- When rinsing, shampoo hair twice, then condition as normal
So why in the world would you want to slather coconut oil all over your head?
Here's why coconut oil works wonders for your hair. It:
- Strengthens hair
- Protects against hair loss due to the anti-microbial lauric acid it contains
- Rejuvenates hair with it's Vitamin E content
- Moisturizes and conditions
- Is anti-dandruff due to the high fatty acid content
- Is a wonderful styler – just use caution not to use too much (less is more)
Doesn't it make your hair greasy?
The answer is no! When you rinse it all out, you will be left with soft, shiny, grease-free hair!
I did this treatment yesterday and my results were exactly as expected. I didn't think my hair would look so healthy, but it did! This treatment is great for dry hair especially. You can still do this treatment if you have oily hair, I just wouldn't apply all the way to your roots. You can do this treatment once to twice a week to reap all the beautiful hair benefits.
You have a few options to try Tropical Traditions Gold label Virgin Coconut Oil. You can choose to purchase it. TT is always having sales! Right now the 32 oz jar is buy 1 get 1 free for a total price of $40! One jar is $29.50.
If you're the kind who likes to try before you buy, you can win a 32 oz. jar of your very own here!
It's going to be very easy to sign up for a chance to win.
Here's the details:
You get one entry for signing up for TT's email newsletter (Mandatory entry)
You get 3 additional entries for following Toxic Beauty Blog on Facebook AND for being an active participant in the discussions on Toxic Beauty Blog's Facebook page.
So let's get this giveaway going NOW! The giveaway runs from now through April 9 at 12:01 am. If you are chosen as the winner, TT will send the coco oil directly to you and you will get to experience the best hair oil you've ever tried!
Good luck to all my lovely readers!
Stay natural…stay beautiful…go green!
P.S. Be sure to check out the video below on how TT discovered this magical oil and be sure to leave a comment on your favorite way to use coconut oil!

A unpleasant, blustery northerly was blowing down Featherston St in central Wellington yesterday, although the locals call it a mild zephyr.
Planes flew in swaying like drunks on Courtney Place at 2am.
Misty drizzle swept across the capital early in the afternoon, and the forecast for tomorrow's clutch pool D game between Wales and South Africa is grim.
This is bad news for Wales, although their coach, former All Black hooker Warren Gatland, has been upbeat on what his team might achieve against the defending World Cup champions.
What they don't want, however, is a wet night. Wales know they must move the big Springbok pack around. A static contest is not on their wishlist.
Wet or dry, there is no great mystery about how South Africa will play this game. If it's fluid, incisive, spin-it-wide rugby you're looking for, forget it.
There's a clue on the South African bench - a five-two forward-back split, with three frontrowers - so a degree in rugby tactics is not required to know what's in store for Wales.
"They're big guys, eh," quipped Wales' captain, Sam Warburton, yesterday. He'd seen some of the opposition in the street the other day.
Not that Wales are short on beef themselves, but their record of one win and a draw from 25 clashes doesn't bode well.
Last year Wales lost 34-31 and 29-25 to the Springboks. They feel the gap is closing, even so.
"We're not going into this game hoping they have a bad day and everything goes well for us," he said.
"We are going in with some confidence. We've had a good warmup preparation, we feel physically in great shape and looking forward to Sunday."
Gatland has put his faith in young Rhys Priestland, with just four caps to his credit at first five-eighths, placing talented and versatile James Hook at fullback.
First choice pivot Stephen Jones is battling a calf injury, as are prop Gethin Jenkins and loose forward Ryan Jones, so Gatland's selection options were limited.
No Springbok will look down on lock Luke Charteris at 2.06m and the loose forward contest will be intriguing.
Warburton, who turned 23 five days ago and has just 17 caps to his name, has created a strong impression, and his battle with bustling Springbok fetcher Heinrich Brussow could be one of the key tussles.
"A lot of people haven't seen Sam Warburton, but I think he'll create an impact after a few games in this World Cup," said Gatland.
Warburton has another capable pair with him in the back row in Dan Lydiate and newcomer Toby Faletau.
Mike Phillips is a robust, resourceful halfback, Jamie Roberts is a blockbusting second five-eighths, and wings George North and Shane Williams - one strapping, strong-running and 19, the other diminutive, quick-footed and 34 - will fancy making a dent given the chance.
As for the Springboks, Danie Rossouw gets Bakkies Botha's spot at lock alongside Victor Matfield and there are no real surprises elsewhere in the side named yesterday.
Discipline will be a key for Wales. Morne Steyn will damage them if they're infringing within 40m of their posts.
The cup needs an early upset, an event to make the rugby world sit up. Might tomorrow be Wales' hour?

Great review! I think this is going to cost me....
What I like is the size for the features. I have a couple of tactical lights which are more like "sit someplace and look tactical" - this one looks like I'd actually pack it around.
Thanks again -
This is a discussion on Flashlight reveiw: HDS EDC U60 within the Related Gear & Equipment forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I finally got some time to get some good pictures (good by my standards which isn't very high :) ) and sit down and write ...
I finally got some time to get some good pictures (good by my standards which isn't very high :) ) and sit down and write about my new light.
[just a note, you can click on all pictures except the beam shots to get high resolution versions]
The HDS EDC U60 is made my HDS Systems. There has been alot of buzz about these lights for quite some time. I decided about a month ago that I really did need one of these lights. Before that I never gave these lights another thought. Then I started reading more and more rave reviews about people loving these lights. So, I thought I would give it a try. Then I hear that they are discontinuing most of their EDC line of flashlights. My first thought was,"Oh, great. They'll be out completely by the time I can afford one.". Well, that was partly true. I originally wanted a U60XRGT. The 'XR' meaning 'extended runtime' and the 'GT' meaning 'guaranteed tint'. Those were sold out by the time I got around to ordering one so I went for the U60XR. Come to find out someone had ordered the last one just before me. :( No, huge deal, I finally got the U60 ordered. I got mine from www.opticshq.com because it was the same price as most other places plus it came with a Pelican 1010 case and 24 Titanium brand batteries. Here is everything I got from OpticsHQ.
"What makes the HDS EDC U60 so special?", you ask. Well, I'll tell you. First this light has 4 different brightness levels, primary (10lumens), secondary (2.6 lumens), maximum (60 lumens), and minimum (.33 lumens). The cool thing about the four leves is that they are either two or three clicks away. And you can change the brightness of any given level. When changing the brightness you can choose from up to 20 different brightness levels ranging from 60 lumens down to .08 lumens.
"What other features does this have?", you ask. Lets take a look. The list of features from the HDS website:Now, when I first read the list of features I was very curious about how quick the Strobe and SOS functions actually where. Well, I tried to get a video of the Strobe function but the flashes of light are too quick for my camera to pic up. But it does flash a quick little 'blip' every second. I did happen to get a video clip done of the SOS signal. Here it is.The EDC Ultimate flashlights provides the following features:
* Your choice of maximum output - the world's smallest tactical brightness LED flashlight. 4 preset levels, 20 brightness levels with visually even spacing
* Fully regulated settings for constant brightness. Gracefully steps down to lower brightness levels to extend dying batteries
* Simple, intuitive single-button interface allows single-click On/Off. Additional brightness settings are quickly accessible. Features fully programmable
* 10 hours constant output on the Primary setting (10 lumens) using a single lithium CR123A battery. 20 minute minimum runtime on Maximum setting
* Ultra clear coated glass lens for maximum light output and improved scratch resistance. Optional polycarbonate lens
* Machined aerospace aluminum case with military hard anodize finish
* Will not damage rechargeable batteries. We highly recommend rechargeable lithium-ion batteries
* Reverse battery protection without diode power penalty
* Intrinsically safe and explosion-proof configuration
* Full thermal management - cannot overheat or get excessively hot
* Waterproof to 2 atmospheres
* Pocket clip and optional lanyard ring
* Dimensions: Ø 25.4mm x 82mm (Ø 1" x 3.2")
* Weight: 86g (3oz)
* Configurable options: all brightness settings, emergency strobe signal, SOS emergency signal (46CFR161.013-7 compliant), flashing locator (so you can find the light in the dark), turn on to last or specific setting, automatic switch lock (prevent accidental turn-on during transport or storage), automatic turn-off and two forms of momentary operation
SOS.MPG 5.9Mb
In this clip you will see the light flash 5 times first. That is me clicking 10 times to get into the main menu. once in the menu the light stays on for a second to let you know that you have entered the menu. You then see the light do a quick little 'blip' that is actually the strobe setting. I didn't want that one so I went to the next option by clicking once and you see three flashes. This is the beginning of the SOS signal option. after then three flashes there is a longer flash from me holding down on the button to select that option. After than I point flashlight at the camera then realize its too bright to do that so I pointed it away alittle bit.
Sounds complicated but I assure, once you play with it for awhile it becomes very very simple.
Now alittle about my particular flashlight. When I initially got my light I clipped it onto my pocket. I thought the clip was way to weak for these so I did some research and found a cure for that. I griped the clip with a pair of needle nosed pliers up by the screw holes and bent the clip so it would hold better. Now it holds like you wouldn't believe. Here is a pic of the clip for those interested.
As far as tint goes........All Luxeon LEDs come in different colors. Some more blue, some more purple, some greenish, and some just absolutely pure white. Mine is a cool white with just a slight hint of purple. Overall a very pleasing color that I don't mind one bit. It is really close to white though.
The cool thing about this light is that he has thermal protection built in. So, if you light gets too hot it will kick down two levels so you still get light and the Luxeon is protected from cooking itself to death. Also when the battery is depleted to much to maintain a brighter level, the light will search for a level that it can maintain. I checked the runtime of my light with a Surefire cell. I placed my light in a cup of cold water to keep the light cool and keep the thermal protection from kicking in. I set the light on high and put in the cup and waited for it to kick down a level. It took 27 minutes and 21 seconds to do so. The is more than I was expecting. The XR versions from what I've read gets about 10 more minutes.
From here on out I'll let the pictures do the talking for me. Not much more I can say.

Over all, I really really really like this light and can't wait to see what comes from HDS next. :)
If you have any questions or anything feel free to ask.
Great review! I think this is going to cost me....

Excellent Review, thank you very much!
Thanks guys. I really enjoy writing reviews even if I'm not the best at it. :) even more than that though, I really enjoy this flashlight. :) Well.....ok.....I enjoy all flashlights.

Welcome to The News You Already Know, where I summarize some of the week's biggest gaming news stories and share my own reactions to them. This entry covers the week of August 11, 2014.
Showing Off the Big Guns (Original Article)
During the calm before the Gamescom storm, Activision and Sledgehammer Games revealed a treasure trove of details surrounding Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare's multiplayer. For both the causal and professional players, the event featured a ton of information to take in.
The most stressed aspect of the multiplayer is how the Exoskeletons affect players' movement and strategies. Sledgehammer is extremely focused on verticality, which means that new moves have been created in order to enhance the feeling of empowerment that the suits offer.
Fancy tricks like the boost jump, dodge, dash, slide and slam have all been added for the sake of improving your character's mobility around any given map. Those mechanics are mainly for fast-paced chases and escaping enemy fire, but the slam is a devastating melee attack that can cripple anyone it comes into contact with.
Exo Abilities take advantage of your suits incredible technology, allowing you to use various tools like the invisibility cloak and Exo Launcher. Your suit does run on a limited battery life, so using these abilities wisely is crucial if you plan on staying ahead of the competition. As expected, Perks will be returning and featured one, called Overcharge, which increases the battery life to a certain extent.
Interestingly enough, Advanced Warfare will being introducing a new loot system to the franchise in the form of Supply Drops. These bundles of joy will contain weapons, character gear and the new Reinforcement Awards: small bonuses that are designed to assist struggling and competent players.
Inspired by Black Ops II's Pick 10, Advanced Warfare features an upgraded Pick 13 system that gives you even more room for customizing your personal classes. The new scorestreaks can be optimized to fit your trigger-happy needs, such as being able to rip a turret gun off its stand. Co-op streaks even allow two players to work alongside each other for adequate results.
The last significant addition is Create-an-Operator, finally giving players the chance to personalize their on-screen solider. You'll also be able to look at each player's character in the Virtual Lobby. If you want to take a self-made class for a spin, you can enter the Virtual Firing Range with the press of a button and shoot at targets to your heart's content.
Towards the end of the presentation, the discussion shifted to maps and game modes. Capture the Flag and Team Deathmatch will be coming back (obviously), but unique modes such as Momentum and Uplink will be making their debut in Advanced Warfare. The game will also be launching with a total of twelve maps.
Finally, the last sucker punch was the surprise unveiling of the Day Zero Edition. This version of the game will be available one day early for anyone who pre-orders Advanced Warfare now or has already done so. Those lucky enough to snag a copy will have twenty-four hours of early access, double XP and two bonus weapons.
My Opinion:
Quite frankly, I wasn't expecting this reveal to cover so much ground. The info presented during the live stream is interesting, but the multiplayer's lasting power has yet to be seen. I've always enjoyed the Call of Duty games thanks to their campaigns being nothing but explosion-fueled, Michael Bay extravaganzas (with the exception of Ghosts). Multiplayer, on the other hand, has mostly been hit-or-miss for me.
As I watch the online madness erupt in Advanced Warfare, I'm blinded by the sheer amount of potential it has. Titanfall was my temporary addiction back in March, and this year's COD looks to be taking the navigation mechanics to new heights. For now, I'll consider myself optimistic about Activision's latest heavy-hitter.
Lara Croft picks Favorites (Original Article)
While taking the stage at the Microsoft press conference during Gamescom 2014, Crystal Dynamics dropped the first bombshell of the show. Rise of the Tomb Raider, the anticipated follow-up to the 2013 reboot, will be an Xbox One and Xbox 360 exclusive when it launches holiday 2015.
The announcement was made by Darrell Gallagher, the head of product development and studios at Crystal Dynamics. Gallagher later went on to say, "This doesn't mean that we're walking away from our fans who only play on PlayStation or on PC. Those are great systems, with great partners, and amazing communities. We have Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris coming to those platforms this December, and Tomb Raider: The Definitive Edition is available on PS4."
Once this revelation was made, Phil Spencer made it clear that the exclusivity will only be temporary.
Note: The image above is not from Rise of the Tomb Raider.
My Opinion:
Mark this as the first legitimate shock of Gamescom 2014. Third-party exclusives are always a risky venture for the publisher behind the game, and a company like Square Enix can't afford any financial misfires. In Microsoft's case, I doubt that Rise of the Tomb Raider will become a monumental system-seller.
Being a fan of the 2013 reboot and an Xbox One owner, I'll certainly purchase Lara Croft's next adventure this coming year. However, I do think that this could backfire tremendously on Square. Games usually sell far more copies on the PS4 due to the larger amount of units out in the wild, and the Tomb Raider brand might not be strong enough lure consumers towards the Xbox One.
Still, I'm interested in seeing how this plays out when the time comes.
Greatness Arrives (Original Article)
Sony's Gamescom 2014 press conference was full of new game reveals, most of which were independent titles. Before the show even began, Sony announced that Journey and The Unfinished Swan will be making their way to the PlayStation 4.
Indie games such as Hollowpoint, The Tomorrow Children, and Volume led the pack of original IPs coming to PS4. Well-known PC games like DayZ and The Vanhishing of Ethan Carter are also console-bound, along with the survival horror title Until Dawn. Housemarque's Alienation was given a nod in the form of a debut trailer as well.
The beautiful Rime received a new trailer, Ninja Theory announced their new IP called Hellblade, and the creator of Rayman and Beyond Good and Evil—Michel Ancel—showed off his new game Wild. Media Molecule even had the spotlight to show off their reimagined version of Tearaway for the PS4 named Tearaway Unfolded.
In between the never-ending flood of news, Sony talked about firmware 2.0 and its various sharing features; a strange, interactive horror teaser was released on the PS Store during the show called P.T.; and how Far Cry 4's co-op mode works was clarified with new details.
If that wasn't enough, pricing details for the European version of PlayStation TV and PS Now's release window were discussed.
My Opinion:
Looking at this line-up of games is impressive to say the least, but I felt a bit cold after watching Sony's conference. Did I think it was lackluster? No, yet Sony might need to focus their priorities in order to keep people interested in the PlayStation name.
It's fantastic that indie games are given so much love, but triple-A titles are just as important to a console's life cycle. Ending the conference with Wild was a tad anti-climactic, and most of the flagship titles appeared as just trailers. The average Joe doesn't cheer when he sees Hotline Miami 2 or Journey on the big screen.
Also, where is the PlayStation Vita? It's a shame that such a fantastic piece of hardware is given so little attention by Sony, almost becoming non-existent. At this point, I can't imagine first-party studios using their time, money and resources on a Vita project when they can just make a new PS4 game.
Despite my minor critiques, Sony is still doing a fine job with their media briefings.
Welcome Back to Silent Hill (Original Article)
Ladies and gentlemen, Kojima has struck again. P.T., the survival horror game that announced a playable demo during Sony's conference, is actually the next Silent Hill.
Players who managed to beat the demo were treated to the reveal of The Walking Dead actor Norman Reedus, followed by two names: Hideo Kojima and Guillermo del Toro. For the final payoff, the game's true named was revealed to be Silent Hills.
That's right; the creator of Metal Gear is teaming up with the director behind Pan's Labyrinth and Pacific Rim to revive Konami's troubled franchise. No other details are available at this time.
My Opinion:
As a huge fan of MGS and survival horror, this surprise made Gamescom worth the wait... for the most part.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I've yet to complete P.T., but my issues with the small preview are common when looking over the various online threads. It is creepy walking down that empty hallway for the first handful of times, yet the game's final puzzle is much more cryptic than most of the previous Silent Hill games.
I would go into detail about it, but there's no point in complaining about a demo that was intentionally difficult. For now, I'm excited by the concept of a new Silent Hill from Kojima and del Toro. I just hope that the execution and puzzles are more within the realm of logic instead of obscurity. Let's hope is lives up to the lofty expectations.
Snake and the Steam Box (Original Article)
Only a few moments after the news was leaked early by Konami, Hideo Kojima announced that Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain will being coming to PC via Steam.
The prices and release dates for the two games have yet to be announced, but Kojima confirmed that Ground Zeroes will be coming out first. It's also unclear if the Steam version of The Phantom Pain will launch alongside the console copies.
My Opinion:
There's really no negative side to this story. The more platforms the games are on, the larger audience they'll build. It's a win-win situation.
It will be interesting to see how far out the PC version of Ground Zeroes is, especially since it's been out for five months on consoles.
Assassins Don't Work for Free (Original Article)
Assassin's Creed: Unity will be the first game in the series to introduce microtransactions. While the details are still unclear, reports have said that they will be used to earn items faster than you normally would.
Speaking with OXM, Senior Producer Vincent Pontibrand said, "If we think it fits the gameplay, or the brand itself, the core values, we're willing to take those risks. If not, then not. We're not going to make any compromises." Pontibrand also confirmed that this was "pretty much" how far Ubisoft is going with in-game purchases in AC: Unity.
My Opinion:
I suppose this will become an industry standard for fruitful franchises like Assassin's Creed. However, it's too early for people to overreact and cancel their pre-orders.
If these microtransactions only serve as shortcuts for weapons and items that I can still obtain by regular means, I'll just ignore them without uttering a word. Once story content and side missions are hidden behind a paywall, that's where I draw the line.
After nurturing such a successful series, Ubisoft would be making a grave mistake by angering their loyal fans.
Light Shines through the Shadows (Original Article)
Electronic Arts finally revealed BioWare's new IP during their Gamescom press conference, Shadow Realms.
Only available on the PC and coming in 2015, Shadow Realms is a horror-esque, online RPG that puts a great focus on story and four-player co-op. The plot takes place in a "modern fantasy setting" and will be released on an episodic schedule.
Players who are interested can sign up for a closed alpha—scheduled for next month—on the Shadow Realms website.
My Opinion:
Just like BioWare's past work, I'm sure Shadow Realms will continue to carry on their high level of quality. I currently don't own a PC that's powerful enough for gaming, and this earns a spot on my long list of PC games I've been dying to play.
It's also nice to see that EA is letting BioWare experiment with fresh ideas, instead of chaining them down with Dragon Age and Mass Effect.
Be sure to share your thoughts, comments and feedback below. Thanks for reading!

Sorry I just can not see this election being anywhere as close as these pollsters say it is. I see this election as being a complete route for Obama on the order of Nixon over Mondale. I think there will be a complete rout of the Democrats.
The economy is in the tank and it is not coming out of the tank until long after Obama is forcibly retired and on the lecture circuit.
Obama has beaten the US economy in to submission, made tax rate increases all but inevitable and so screwed up the healthcare industry that businesses are running away from private health insurance for their employees and major employers in this country are considering the near elimination of full time permanent employees so as to escape the ballooning cost of healthcare caused by Obama Care.
Anyone who is considering voting Democrat in this coming election is either a hopeless ideologue or is simply not paying attention.
"...I see this election as being a complete route for Obama on the order of Nixon over Mondale."
Did you just have a "Biden moment"? I think you meant to say Nixon over McGovern (520 to 17 Electoral votes).

As most readers are aware, AMT and the U.S. Department of Commerce initiated a new effort to deploy AMT Brazil in 2013. The first two years of the initiative included the incorporation of AMT Brazil and the development of member services similar to the ones offered in China, Mexico and India.
Today, AMT Brazil is offering the following services:
- Field service capabilities,
- Proxy hiring and general human resource consulting,
- Distributor, agents search / streamlining and arbitrage to develop your current distributor,
- Support in developing your Brazilian market access strategy by scheduling a market penetration review/consulting session,
- Market Access Sales Support, or MASS, a program that provides members with access to experienced Applications Engineers to visit Brazilian customers and "harvest" information about projects on the horizon,
- Office and meeting rooms space for member use, and
- Our newest service: warehousing, which provides members with cross docking, traditional warehousing or in bond warehousing.
Last piece of the puzzle
AMT Brazil was very fortunate to partner with FACENS (College of Engineering of Sorocaba), a highly technical Engineering School with branch locations in Sorocaba and Central Brazil (Belo Horizonte), to make this space a reality. On May 19, the grand opening of the São Paulo Technology Room took place. Utilizing this space, AMT members now have a way to present advanced manufacturing technology solutions to the Brazilian industrial base.
The fact that the Technology Room is located in a venue that so many talented professionals and engineers visit regularly, and where new engineers are being trained presents the opportunity to create "future preference," as I call it. By becoming an active participant in the Technology Room, members will have the chance to display their products to an audience of FACENS students, who are either already working in the industry (in the Sorocaba / Campinas economic region) or are about to start their career. Given this exposure, guess which technologies these new professionals will want to incorporate into their manufacturing facilities when it is time for a new capital investment?
The incredible opportunity offered by the Technology Room was further confirmed during the grand opening by FACENS. A representative of the college noted that the Sorocaba / Campinas economic region has grown between 10-20 percent year-over-year for the last 10 years. Companies like Toyota, Lenovo, Pentair and many global machine tool builders chose Sorocaba to set up a Tech Center or manufacturing facility, reaffirming the importance of the region.
Many important industry players attended the Opening Ceremony, including U.S. Consul General in São Paulo, Dennis Hankins; Paulo Carvalho, Director at FACENS; and Steve Lesnewich, AMT's VP Global Services. The ceremony was also attended by various industry leaders and FACENS faculty. The successful launch completed the deployment of a variety of AMT strategic marketing resources designed to help members gain footing in the Brazilian market.
I invite all members to take advantage of the Technology Room AMT set up at FACENS and use the venue to:
- Schedule technical seminars,
- Set up ongoing demonstrations of your product's new features, to create "future preference" and expand your in-country customer base,
- Access a wealth of engineering talent to serve as future representatives or staff in Brazil, either through AMT or in a direct fashion,
- Develop "in country" intelligence and solutions for Brazil's manufacturing applications that can be used by the local industrial base
- Complete any engineering or marketing project you may have in mind, as FACENS is very well connected with the Federation of Industries in the Sorocaba / Campinas region.
For additional information, contact Carlos G. Mortera, International Director, Latin America, at firstname.lastname@example.com or Achilles Arbex, General Manager Brazil, at email@example.com.
