Champagne and Fizz Gifts
Pop quiz hotshot! Do you own the following; a gilet, a pair of alarming red trousers and slip-on shoes? If the answers yes then you my friend, consider yourself to be quintessentially posh. However, if you own none of those things but do have a good bottle of bubbly waiting to be cracked open at a momentous occasion? Because if so, that's not posh, that's just good common sense! Mind you, one sip of Champagnes like the winsome Veuve Clicquot and you could end up proposing to your girlfriend/boyfriend/postman just so you can celebrate all over again. But, if not, don't panic, our range of gifts go hand in hand with any meaningful occasion no matter how large or small. Maybe you just want to celebrate giving the opposing team a good thwacking at your latest polo/basketball/Wii tournament, in which case just peruse our Champagne section to find your perfect fizz fit. Or perhaps you just want to say a little thank you to someone for looking after your cat/giving you a massage/offloading some amazing cast-offs, in which case, one of our exceedingly popular Proseccos should do the job nicely. Other events are more momentous and demand bubbles with gravitas. That maybe scientifically illogical, but you catch our drift… A bottle of vintage Champagne such as the toasty and well-balanced Pol Roger 2004, with suggestive notes of stone fruit, acacia honey and citrus, would add a touch of majesty. And of course we should all aim to be majestic, every now and again. You can send Champagne gifts anywhere in the UK and use our Next Day Delivery Service to get your sparkling gift delivered the following working day (for orders placed before 2pm).

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I am a Canadian citizen and married my husband (a U.S. citizen) 32 years ago. 9 years ago he filed the I-130 but never finished the process (because he never paid the filing fee) and now he is divorcing me. What are my chances to adjust my status now?
If he did not pay the fee, I -130 is not even filed. It is not just incomplete, it is simply not filed.
if he is divorcing you, then he should not even file I-130 for you.
Your chances to adjust status based on marriage are nil.
You should consult an attorney in your area or any immigration attorney on phone to get the advise.Ask a similar question
When the I-130 was mailed to INS, did you or him receive a receipt. Often times, people in divorce proceedings will claim the application was never completed etc.... You can contact USCIS to determine if a petition has even been filed for you. Also, an approved I-130 does nor automatically give you teh right to adjust. It only confirms the relationship exists. If you are devorced, the I-130 petition of your "ex" husband would not be the correct current status. You should contact an immigration attorney who can assist you as to what options if any you have. Good luck.
Legal disclaimer: The statement above is provided by CC Abbott is based on general assistance and not intended to be a legal opinion because not all the facts are provided. The person requesting information and all others reading the answer should retain an attorney who is permitted by the state bar within the jurisdiction who can examine the complete facts and provide a legal opinion on your case. All information provided in the above answer and other information provided by CC Abbott does not create an attorney/client relationship within any state of Federal law.Ask a similar question
I agree you should consult an immigration attorney. If the I-130 was filed but no I-485 was filed, you may have an approved I-130 but if you divorce before you receive your greencard, you will not be able to use that I-130 anymore. It sounds like the I-130 was filed a long time ago; check the exact date of filing; if it was before April 30, 2001 that may help you adjust based on a new case. Also, if your ex-husband ever abused you, emotionally or physically, you may have a claim to a greencard based on that abuse if you can proof it or have credible testimony. Consult an immigration attorney for assistance on this to see what your real options are.

CORVALLIS, Ore. - Five match wins Sunday powered the Wyoming Cowboy wrestling team to a team victory over No. 16 Oregon State on the road, 23-22.
The dual ended with the score tied at 22, but 13th-ranked Wyoming (2-2 overall) earned the victory on criteria, scoring 34 match points to Oregon State's 30. That added an additional team point. It was Wyoming's first win over the Beavers since 2003-04, when the Cowboys defeated OSU 17-16. Oregon State moved to 5-2 overall.
"It was a pretty wild dual," Wyoming coach Mark Branch said. "It didn't go down by any means how I thought it might. But between two good teams, to have four pins and really competitive matchups, duals get that way. You feel lucky to be on the right side of those."
The dual began at 125 pounds, with No. 14 Michael Martinez of UW and Pat Rollins. Rollins took an early shot but a nifty defensive move by Martinez prevented any points. The senior then worked his way into a takedown with less than a minute left in the first period for the 2-0 lead. But Rollins was in the top position to start the second period and took advantage, pinning Martinez at the 3:36 mark. Oregon State took a 6-0 lead in the dual after one match.
No. 16 Zach Zehner, a redshirt freshman, took on James Roberts in the 133-pound match. Zehner earned a takedown less than 15 seconds in for a 2-0 lead. A Roberts escape seconds later made the score 2-1. Zehner then used his aggressiveness to earn another takedown, and controlled Roberts for nearly two minutes, but Roberts earned an escape to make it 4-2. Zehner then lifted Roberts off the mat and threw him for another takedown to take the 6-2 lead into the second period. Roberts earned a takedown, but Zehner's reversal and subsequent pin at the 3:22 mark gave him the win and the team score was tied at 6.
"I was proud of the guys who responded," Branch said. "When you give up a pin in a match we feel like we're going to win and we're ahead, that can affect how the rest of the team performs. Zach came right out and got it back for us. He wrestled great."
Senior Chase Smith got in on his first dual action of the season at 141 pounds and took on fifth-ranked Mike Mangrum of Oregon State. The action was frenetic to start the bout, and Smith earned a takedown to take the 2-0 lead heading into the second period with 1:44 of advantage time. Smith's aggressiveness earned him 3:27 of riding time in the second period, but Mangrum followed up with an escape and a takedown to take a 3-2 lead into the third period. Mangrum rode out the third period, but the riding-time point made the wrestlers even at 3 heading into extra time. The wrestlers failed to score in the first minute, and it headed to the tiebreaker session. Mangrum rode Smith for all 30 seconds in the first session, and Smith did the same in the following 30-second round. Another minute was added to the clock, and Mangrum earned a takedown 30 seconds into the sudden-death period. Mangrum's 5-3 decision gave the Beavers a 9-6 lead in the dual.
Redshirt freshman Brandon Richardson took on OSU's 19th-ranked Scott Sakaguchi battled in the 149-pound match. Both wrestlers took aggressive shots early, but defense prevailed in the first period and the session ended in a 0-0 tie. Sakaguchi rode Richardson the entire second period and earned two near-fall points to take the 2-0 advantage into the last period. Sakaguchi then scored an escape point and added a takedown for the 6-0 win with riding time. Oregon State led 12-6 after four matches.
It was redshirt freshman Dakota Friesth and No. 18 R.J. Pena of Oregon State mixing it up in the 157-pound match, and Pena struck first with a takedown. Seconds later, Friesth escaped to make it 2-1. Pena went right back on top for a two-point takedown and he earned three near-fall points with 35 seconds to go in the period for the 7-1 lead. Pena then pinned Friesth at the 2:50 mark for OSU's 18-6 lead in the team score.
Wyoming senior Shane Onufer, ranked fourth, took on Joe Latham in the 165-pound bout, and Onufer built an early 2-0 lead with a takedown. Onufer gave up an escape to work for more offense and made the score 2-1 heading into the second period. Onufer then added an escape point and worked for a stall point against Latham. Onufer added a takedown for the 6-1 lead with 30 seconds left in the second period. Another stall point was added to Onufer's score for the 7-1 lead, and with riding time Onufer took home an 8-1 win. Wyoming trailed 18-9 heading into the seventh match of the day.
Pat Martinez, a sophomore, and Cody Weishoff of OSU tangled in the 174-pound match. Martinez had a takedown 48 seconds into the first period, but Weishoff made it 2-1 with an escape. Martinez added two more points with a takedown and made it 4-1 after one round. Martinez's reversal made it 6-1, but Weishoff earned a reversal to make it 6-3 shortly thereafter. At the start of the third period, Weishoff's escape made it 6-4, but Martinez worked for another takedown for the 8-4 lead, which was the final margin. The score went to 18-12 OSU with three matches to go.
UW's top-ranked senior Joe LeBlanc and Ty Vinson dueled in the 184-pound match. LeBlanc and Vinson scrambled for the first minute and a half, and LeBlanc eventually worked for a takedown and the 2-0 lead. LeBlanc earned two near-fall points for the 4-0 lead after one period. After choosing down to start the second, LeBlanc's reversal and subsequent pin at 3:37 evened up the team score at 18.
"Joe came out and got a big pin that we had to have. He knew that when he stepped out there," Branch said.
Wyoming redshirt junior Alfonso Hernandez, ranked eighth, and No. 16 Taylor Meeks took to the mats at 197 pounds in the only match of the day pairing ranked wrestlers. Hernandez got a takedown and two near-fall points to make it 4-0 with 58 seconds left in the first period. Meeks earned an escape point, but Hernandez stayed on the attack and got another takedown to make it 6-1 after the first round. Meeks got an escape point and the score moved to 6-2 just moments into the second period. Hernandez worked for another takedown for the 8-2 advantage. Yet another escape by Meeks made the score 8-3 shortly after. But Hernandez's takedown made it 10-3 just before the second period expired. His escape and subsequent takedown gave him a 13-3 lead, but Meeks made it 13-4 with an escape. But Hernandez got another takedown for the 15-4 lead. After Hernandez allowed an escape it was 15-5, but with riding time it was Hernandez earning the 16-5 major decision. Four team points gave Wyoming a 22-18 lead heading into the final bout.
"Fonz stepped out against a very talented kid and wrestled great," Branch said of Hernandez.
In the heavyweight bout, UW junior L.J. Helbig and fifth-ranked Clayton Jack stepped on the mat, knowing anything more than a major decision would spell doom for Wyoming. The two battled for one round, and Jack got a takedown for the 2-0 lead right before the buzzer sounded. Jack's escape point made it 3-0 shortly into the second period, and Helbig was called for stalling for a 4-0 deficit. Jack earned a takedown for the 6-0 lead, and added more poitns for the 8-0 lead heading into the third. Jack got another takedown for the 10-0 lead. Helbig earned an escape point, but Jack had another takedown for the 12-1 advantage. Riding time gave Jack the 13-1 major decision, which tied the team score at 22.
"L.J. wrestled smart and fought hard, and he didn't do anything (to put us in a bad position)," Branch said.
The team score then went to the criteria including number of falls, number of technical falls, major decisions and number of match points scored. The tiebreaker came down to total match points scored, which was a 34-30 Wyoming advantage. That gave Wyoming an additional team point to win 23-22.

Check out Seattle's first 'passive house'
Published 10:03 pm, Wednesday, July 11, 2012
Want to know what a "passive house" is? You'll have a chance to check one out first-hand for free on Thursday.
Contractor Hammer & Hand will show off what it calls Seattle's first passive house, Courtland Place, in Rainier Valley.
"While the term 'green building' often conjures images of bamboo floors and low-flow toilets, the passive house approach is about revolutionizing how our buildings perform, becoming quiet, comfortable, super-efficient, gracious spaces," Sam Hagerman, co-owner of Hammer & Hand and president of the Passive House Alliance US, said in a news release.
The passive house building energy standard, according to Hammer & Hand, "combines straightforward building technologies with advanced computer modeling to achieve 80 percent gains in energy efficiency compared with conventional structures."
Dan Whitmore, the project's Builder and Hammer & Hand supervisor, said: "The beauty of passive house is its simplicity. We're able to eliminate big mechanical systems and gadgetry and instead use modern building science to design and construct super-efficient buildings. Big gains in energy performance become possible at a modest cost."
A lot of it has to do with insulation, eliminating heat loss and using efficient systems. Courtland Place is heated by an energy-recovery ventilation unit whose output matches that of a toaster oven.

About National Family Promise
Family Promise is a national network of networks of people. Our vision is to end family homelessness. The best place to get the story of how Family Promise began is the "Our Story" page on our national website. We also recommend this video:
The success of the first Family Promise networks led other congregations to seek help in developing similar programs. To date, the national organization now called Family Promise has established 180 affiliates in 42 states, using the services of more than 150,000 volunteers and 6000 congregations.
The Interfaith Hospitality Networks (IHNs) provide shelter, meals, and housing and job placement support to more than 49,000 homeless family members annually, 60 percent of them children.
Witnessing firsthand the obstacles that low-income families face, Family Promise leaders and volunteers have been motivated to do more. Affiliates have seized the initiative to create additional community programs, such as housing renovation, job training, and healthcare programs.
As a way of helping at-risk families avoid homelessness, Family Promise began training volunteers to advise and mentor families, helping them achieve and maintain self-sufficiency.
To foster a greater understanding of the root causes of homelessness, Family Promise launched the Just Neighbors educational curriculum.
And although 41 states and 150,000 volunteers now define the breadth and depth of the organization, Karen's mandate remains in place…if you can strengthen one family you can strengthen a nation.
History Timeline
1982: Karen Olson, a Manhattan marketing executive, encountered a homeless woman, someone she'd seen over and over again on her way to work.
She decided to buy a sandwich for the woman. The stranger accepted the sandwich but asked Karen for something else — a moment to be heard, to be comforted, and to be considered as more than a mere statistic on a cold street corner.
Soon, Karen and her two young sons began frequent trips to New York to hand out sandwiches to the homeless. Olson learned that there were hundreds of homeless people, including families, in her home community of Union County, New Jersey.
She turned to the religious community for help, convinced that there were many who shared her concern and that together they could do what they couldn't do alone. Within ten months, eleven area congregations came forward to provide hospitality space within their buildings. The local YMCA agreed to provide showers and a day center for families. A car dealer discounted a van.
1986: The first Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN) opened its doors.
As word spread, ten more congregations formed a second Network. Programs for transitional housing, childcare, and family mentoring followed — outgrowths of increased awareness and involvement.
1988: The Network goes national
The success of the first Networks led other congregations to seek help in developing similar programs.
2003: The Network changed its name to Family Promise
The organization changed its name to Family Promise to reflect a broader range of programs and reaffirm its core commitment to helping families realize their own potential.
2007: Family Promise comes to Lawrence
Former KU Ethics professor Joe Reitz serves as CEO of a local healthcare provider for under-insured in Lawrence. It is there that he realized that there were homeless children in our community. Joe then gathered a group of committed citizens to research effective models for dealing with this issue. They began working with the national Family Promise organization to establish an affiliate here in 2008.
2008: Valerie Miller-Coleman
Hired Valerie Miller-Coleman as the Executive Director and opened before the first snowfall.
2011: Dana Ortiz
Served 18 families in 2011 — the most served in one year in Lawrence. In September, 2011 hired Dana Ortiz as Executive Director.

Brains, Beauty and a Bari Booty: Bari Founder, Alexandra Bonetti
Once we experienced Bari for ourselves, we had to meet the brains behind it. Who was this Venezuelan beauty who went to undergrad at Wharton, worked in merging and acquiring firms in oil post graduation, then up and created one of the most innovative, joyful, and effective workouts we have tried? We had to wait almost two months to find out, as she was traveling around South America with indigenous tribes studying the meditation and holistic healing practices past down from generation to generation. Are we dreaming? Alexandra Bonetti not only answered our burning questions of who, what, why, when and how Bari was created, but she reminded us about something so fundamental and so powerful: everything is connected. Your mind, body, soul, your movements and your meditations, your roots and your career. We'll let Alexandra do the talking, we just ask that you try and read the interview in your head with Alexandra's sexy Venezuelan accent and magnetic playfulness. Accents make everything better...
I'm from Venezuela. Growing up, I never worked out. Whenever there was PE class, I would get an automatic ear infection and sit out. It wasn't my thing. When I went to college here in the states, I was 17. I still didn't work out. Then I graduated and started consulting in the oil industry. I was merging and acquiring firms in oil and traveling a ton. I would visit maybe two countries a week. I was always living in an airport. I had three suitcases — one in NY, one in London and one in the Netherlands. I had no apartment, and nowhere to do my laundry. It was not normal.
I was always eating in airports — just super unhealthy — not sleeping, working way too much. Eventually I was like, 'I am going to end up in the hospital!', so I started running. I started going for maybe five or ten minutes on the treadmill in hotels. I was like, 'I sort of like this…'. I started running outside, and it really changed my life. I had more energy, I would wake up earlier, and I actually liked to work again. It changed my whole perspective. I was losing weight, but my legs started getting super bulky, so I was like, 'Okay, I'm going to start Pilates.' I did that, and it made my abs great, but the rest of my body wasn't so great. So I was like, 'Okay, maybe weightlifting…'. I started weight lifting in the gym, but then my back was huge, so I was like, 'Well this isn't it…'
I started combining the stuff that I loved. I started combining some elements from pilates that I loved, from cardio that I loved, and some weight training. Four years into consulting, I was like, 'I don't know if I love this anymore. I'm not excited about my life.' I was telling my mom that I didn't know what to do and she was like, 'Why don't you start something in fitness? You love working out!' I was like, 'Mom, please, do you want me to get fake tans too? That's ridiculous.' But that night, I couldn't sleep with the idea. Six months later, I'd left my job, gotten a pilates certification and opened Bari in Tribeca. When I opened, the method was a lot more basic than it is now.
"I think the recipe for success in this lifestyle is finding your crowd. The more you can create that community of like-minded people, the more successful your tribe is going to be."
I was the only one cleaning, training, marketing, handing out fliers on the corner…it was kind of crazy. It was a really interesting time in my life. I started meeting a lot of famous trainers that were also training all these celebrities — they were telling me that I should do things differently because 'that's not how I train Madonna' or whoever. And I was like, 'Well, that's actually interesting, because celebrities really are doing fun, different moves than the rest of us. Here I've been at the gym running and doing Pilates and models and celebrities are doing all these cool diagonal twists and turns and they're not working out hours on end and suffering with joint pain the next day.'
I fell in love with this idea. So I hired a few celebrity trainers to help me really evolve the concept and method. It was a huge hit. We combined the theory behind these different angles that we work out in with a fun factor, because it should be fun with a challenge. Though it shouldn't be easy, or you'll get bored quickly. It should be something that you can build up to — it's this idea of coordination. You're present. You're there. If you're thinking of your grocery shopping list, you're getting lost. Bari really forces you to focus.
It was super home cooked 'meal-y' (laughs). You never ate out. I don't know if that's an American thing, or just a New York thing, but in Venezuela, you don't buy pre-cooked anything. Everything is made from scratch, with fresh squeezed juice in the morning. We also eat a lot of cornmeal. Corn is very big there. Butter, sugar and carbs were part of the diet, but I feel like since I left Venezuela 13 years ago, people have become much more conscious about those kinds of things. I still prefer to eat at home than anywhere else. Name the best restaurant in New York, and I'd still rather eat a home cooked meal.
I love being with people, and I'm just a loud person in general. When my husband and I first got married, we lived in an apartment on East 11th, and the whole apartment was the size of my living room now, so we couldn't really have people over. I was like, 'I can't do this anymore. We can move north of Queens and I'll be happy. I just need space to entertain, because that's definitely a big part of who I am'. I also feel like when I was working out, I tried so many different gyms and studios, and the ones that I liked were the ones where I had a personal relationship with either the people that went there, or the reception and management team. It made me want to come back.
I think the recipe for success in this lifestyle is finding your crowd. Find people that can support you because if you're vegan and hanging out with people doing drugs and eating pizza, it's not easy. It's great to find a group of people that you can share similar interests with. I feel like the more you can create that community of like-minded people, the more successful your tribe is going to be.
I'm a strong believer in magic. Astrologers, readers, you name it, I've been several times this month. I recently met with this Indian guy from Ecuador — and I'm half Ecuadorian so it was such a coincidence —
and he was like, 'Show me your method…'. So I showed him how we dance, and he was like, 'That's how Indians do everything. You know, you are doing indigenous meditation at Bari. I'm sure of it! Explain to me.'
Then I showed him how we trampoline, and he was like, 'That's how Indians run…you guys are going indigenous meditations.'
I just took this past January off and went to Ecuador and studied indigenous meditation for three weeks. I worked in an orphanage in the mornings, horseback rode before breakfast, and then we'd go to villages and ask, 'Who here knows?' That's literally what we would say — 'Who in the village knows?' They'd be like, 'Go down two blocks, take a right, there'll be this big tree on the left, find this guy, he knows everything.' I ended up interviewing 20 shamans, and it turns out, what we're doing at Bari really is an indigenous meditation. I came back the happiest human being.
"Bari" is an indigenous tribe in Venezuela. But the thing is, I didn't know that when I named it. It's such a big coincidence. I can't get over all the coincidences in my life lately, and that's the biggest one. People use to ask me what it meant, and I'd be like, 'Don't ask me that question, it means nothing.' But now, I have an amazing story.
"Society is telling us to do everything, but we can't. We need to pick the things that we want to do that make us happy."
While in South America this past January, I also interviewed some Indians in Venezuela. The first thing that 100% of the people said to me was 'If you don't believe, I can't help you. If you don't believe, I can't cure you.' -- the same as in Ecuador. It was so interesting to see that across countries and different villages, the first thing they all wanted to make sure was that I believed in what they were doing. It was my favorite take away from the trip.
And really, that's the basis of Bari's brand — you have to believe in yourself. You have to quit thinking that you're not coordinated enough, or strong enough, or fit enough, or skinny enough, or tall enough. Those are just the stories we tell ourselves. It's so cool to see these people living such simples lives, and it all starts with believing! What do you believe in? If you believe in making a difference, you will. And you will feel it.
Everyone I met also had their own saying, which I loved. It wasn't like, 'This is THE WAY that you have to mediate, or think, or eat.' It was all different, yet similar. I think in our industries of food and fitness, there are just so many different ways of doing things. Each family or mentor passes down their own shaman technique. That's what they learn and what they practice throughout their lives. It was so cool to see that different things work, as long as you're open to it.
We have a really strong teens program right now in New Jersey and the Dominican Republic. I discovered fitness in my mid-20s, but these girls that are starting at 14 and 15, it gives them this different kind of discipline, self-confidence, and belief in themselves. The way that they frame their success stories are so different than adults. These teens just radiate confidence. They're so sure of themselves. I think that the more confidence women have, the more we start making decisions for ourselves.
Society is telling us to do everything, but we can't. We need to pick the things that we want to do that make us happy, and forget what people think or say. And I feel like if I can grab a 15 year old now and empower them to feel that way, then they can make their own choices, and they're going to lead a different life.
As I watch my clients grow, they love their bodies more. They walk into meetings taller. They love their presentations more. They get sexier with their partners. They feel more flirty because they feel prettier. They're like, 'No, you know what? I don't want to be in this relationship, I don't want this shitty job, because I can do better!' You start to see these really huge changes after their body changes — these huge confidence boosters come. And as a girl, it makes you feel sexier, and you eat sexier food. It makes you want to take pictures of yourself and be flirty and do well. It gives you an inner power.
"I really want to empower women to make their own rules and write their own stories so they can create deliriously happy lives."
I don't know if this only pertains to women, but one of my favorite things I learned when I opened was when my mom told me, 'Your business will always give you a second chance, but people won't.' If you're going to take a risk, take a risk on your business, not on people. Always treat people well. Our team at Bari is the best possible team ever. We have the best people that work there. The people that come to Bari are the best people. I think that you attract great people by being great to people. I think that wold be my number one thing to stress to others. Never forget people, never get too comfortable, and learn about other industries. Learn about other companies. Read bios on people that are doing it well. Read branding books on marketing, or whatever you feel like you love and don't know enough about. Just learn…always learn. It's so important to do something that you really love — your passion. Don't just search for your passion, or your whole life you're going to be like, 'What's my passion?!' It's not easy, because not everybody knows theirs. But just go for something that you love!
First, I wash my face with this oil to get my makeup off, then I use an actual cleanser. Then I spray some rose thing. Then, Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair. Then, a cell brightening serum. Then, twice a week, I'll mask. Then, it's usually a hydrating cream. Lately, I've been wearing a lot of Korean water packs. And then an eye serum.
My husband's like, 'Can I please kiss you?' And I'm like 'Nope, my creams are on, sorry. You missed your chance half an hour ago.' I spend half an hour every morning and every night.
I'm an affirmation all day, every day kind of girl — I'm like, 'Life is great, I love New York, oh my God there's a beautiful tree, my dog is so cute!' Trees are definitely a thing for me. I'm such a lover of life. I love meditation, and it's something that I struggled with for years, because it's not comfortable for me to just sit down in silence. It's not my personality. Some form of active meditation is my favorite. That's what I get from Bari when I do it every day. I like to do the 1pm class. I like to break up the day with a workout. Coffee is definitely a morning ritual of mine. My husband makes me coffee every morning. Until I have it in my hand, I can't say a word. I don't even open my eyes fully.
I really want to empower women to make their own rules and write their own stories so they can create deliriously happy lives — because even if one person a day at Bari feels like they're more empowered to choose things that they love to do for themselves, then I've done my job.

Better penis implants 'on the way'
Scientists believe they may have found a safe and more effective way of increasing the size of a man's penis.
It follows experiments by researchers in the United States in which they successfully carried out penis implants on rabbits.
The scientists grew penis tissue in the laboratory which was then surgically implanted into the rabbits.
It could also one day help those men who want a larger penis.
Laboratory tests
Dr Anthony Atala and colleagues at Harvard Medical School extracted samples from the penis muscle and erectile tissue of rabbits.
These cells were grown in the laboratory and within days resembled real erectile tissue.
The scientists then removed erectile tissue from the penises of 18 rabbits, replacing it with the engineered tissue.
Because the tissues were grown from the rabbits' own cells, there was no problem with immune rejection.
The rabbits were then placed in a cage with a female rabbit. The males had full sexual functions.
"They were able to copulate, penetrate and produce sperm," Dr Atala told New Scientist magazine.
Human tests 'far off'
The scientists are now trying to grow an entire penis from scratch.
It is one of the most difficult organs to grown in the laboratory because it is so complex.
However, the scientists have warned that they are a long way off being able to test the technique in humans.
They have also said that the procedure could not work for those women hoping to become men. This is because they do not have the right cells.
But it could provide an alternative treatment in the future.
At present, the penis is enlarged by injecting fat cells or 'pulling out' that part of the organ that is inside the body.
These methods are regarded as crude by some and are not always successful.
The study was originally published in the Journal of Urology.

DNC Wants Radical 9/11 Conspiracy Theorist as Its Chair — Where Is the MSM?
The media has accused Glenn over and over of being a conspiracy theorist. There's just one problem with that. Conspiracies are based on speculation, not fact.
Take the Muslim Brotherhood, for example. Glenn has reported on the radical group's plan to take over America. This is a fact based on a document called The Project, found in Germany by the U.S. government after 9/11. It outlines how to infiltrate the United States government, businesses and turn Americans against Americans.
"When you say something like the Muslim Brotherhood has a plan to take over America, that sounds crazy. But once you look into the sources and you see what it is, well then, it's a different story," Glenn said Thursday on his radio program.
Now take Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN), the man that Democratic Party leadership want as their next chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Rep. Ellison has been tied to the Nation of Islam, the Muslim Brotherhood and holds radical left-wing policy positions. He's also said very troubling things about 9/11.

How did the larger urban areas come to be?
The first individuals hunted and gathered. Both were based on chance and skill. Those who learned where the edible plants were that could sustain them, and animals that could nourish them, thrived. Since this was based upon the weather, season, and chance, some decided it was easier to feed certain animals, and grow those plants, rather than constantly move to different hunting and gathering grounds.
Individuals banded together into small farming communities for security from those predators who would take property or life. The agrarian society was limited by two main factors: carrying capacity and disease. As crowding occurred, individuals relocated further from the initial village, like the runners of a strawberry plant. Moving increased the carrying capacity as it decentralized. More plants could be grown, and more animals could be raised.
Some individuals grew tired of the agrarian life. They specialized their abilities, honing them into a better income generating occupation that would increase the number of goods and services and offer more stability. These individuals were sought out, especially by any centering force that brought cohesion to the collection of villages. The most powerful person, who could organize and control the other members, would gather these specialists into his immediate area. This generated value and income to that central village. Others, seeing that specialization brought more security and income, followed suit, especially young people. In many cases parents promoted the idea to increase the security of their children.
Chieftains and Kings arose. They needed specialists who could protect the leadership and extend it's power, or specialists who served the King. That group of specialists were considered more valuable than the others who did generalized labor. The latter was valuable and became a commodity. The former was considered more valuable and essential, the critical infrastructure of its day.
Populations shifted to the growing areas. The carrying capacity of that urban area though was greatly diminished. The only way that the urban area could exist at all was to ship in supplies from the outlying areas that were less densely populated and hence had greater carrying capacity. They were limited by the types of transportation, roads, ships, and the animals or people who could power them.
Some harnessed the wind, and these could transport the goods the furthest, but the cost was high in sailors. Many died due to weather, drowning, illness, nutritional deficiency, or hunger. A lack of wind to fill the sails could be disastrous. Most of these items were rare. They came from far away, and were priced accordingly.
Some grew tired of being in the second tier, and less valued. Their role was just as essential. In a sense it was more essential since the only way that the urban area existed, was through the cooperation of the villagers.
Threats though kept them quiet. Those threats didn't come very often. Most often the villagers were attacked since they had much of the wealth of essential supplies and since the power of the King and his soldiers was far away. Retribution occurred from the King, but rarely if ever did those goods return.
Some grew tired of this arrangement. Who was stealing from whom? Some dreamers wanted freedom from this kind of slavery. They moved further and further from the urban centers, away from the King and his control. The further away they moved, the more they became their own chieftains.
Income dropped off though. So did rare supplies. Loneliness set in. Communities allow goods and services to flow between its members.
Other came to the new areas seeking the same freedom. The same old patterns emerged. Specialization grew.
Kings saw the loss of income. The new areas could be new sources of power though. They declared that these new areas would be extensions of their kingdom. They couldn't easily impose their power though, not with the distance and transportation issues. The same issues of ship travel precluded the King from easily asserting his power.
There was only one solution: move the soldiers to the outlying areas. By doing so, the King could increase his income by imposing his power through military occupation.
Freedom is infectious. The taste of autonomy was far more powerful than any good or service that the King could tempt with. Chieftains and their followers resisted. Having lived and provided their own security for so long, and knowing the terrain, and being better supplied , they could fight more efficiently and successfully.
The King lost his battle with the Chieftains. It was expensive and unsustainable based upon logistics alone.
The Chieftains grew in power. They forgot why they came, seduced by power and greed. They redefined their role, and excused their behaviour. They imposed restrictions on freedom.
Those who loved freedom more than goods and services moved West across the great river that separated the new Kingdom. They were distant to the Chieftains. No threat to them. They helped the new urban areas by increasing the carrying capacity to stabilize. All was well.
The old King, inspired by the idea of colonies, started his own in Asia and Africa. It worked for a time.
The Pioneers in the West had difficulty. It was not unoccupied land. In fact, a separate group of Chieftains lived there in a stable way prospering. At first only minor skirmishes occurred. The population density was low, and hence the carrying capacity high.
More people got tired of the Chieftains and restrictions on Freedom. They knew that life out West could be prosperous. They lied to themselves that it was difficult. They ignored the fact that two-thirds of the people who traveled Westerward failed. Only a third stayed long enough to achieve land claims for five years. Disease, accidents, starvation, and boredom took the majority. Some dejected citizens returned to the new Kingdom's urban areas penniless.
Not only did the new Kingdom's citizens feel the pull of Freedom, people from other Kingdoms traveled to the New World, hungry for the promise of the West. Some lingered in the new Kingdom's urban areas, lured by its uniqueness and new found freedom. Much relocated Westward establishing their own villages, but banding together to be communities identifying with their former Kingdoms.
The Chieftains wised up. They were losing income. There were new markets that they could use to generate income. There were new modes of transportation that could safely move goods Westward, and purchase goods from those locations and bring them back East. These railroads allowed the movement of goods and people Westward.
Again a tiered society had been created. Western citizens were considered lesser than Eastern citizens. The Chieftains promised Statehood to the Western Chieftains. They were invited to send their own representatives to the East urban areas. By doing so, they could join with the Eastern Chieftains in determining the limits of Freedom. Sounds like an oxymoron to me.
Native Chieftain grew alarmed. Larger and larger influxes of migrating citizens encroached upon their hunting and gathering areas. Carrying capacity plummeted. Only by switching to agrarian villages or relocating to ever decreasing hunting grounds, could people cope, and most could not.
The income generated and the migrations served the Eastern Chieftains well. Imposing their power was difficult across the great River. The realized that sending military troops to occupy and support the Western States would be in their best interest. The railroads had a new function.
In the end, those with the most powerful goods that could project power won.

'The only problem is when you are in the public eye like we are, the entire relationship is under scrutiny,' the older Lohan said about their meeting throughout the week.
Lindsay Lohan's father Michael has spoken out for the first time since he was reunited with his troubled daughter in rehab, praising her progress and revealing they are taking steps to repair their relationship.
The actress, who has been in and out of jail and rehab this year, is currently serving out a three-month stint at California's Betty Ford clinic after failing two mandatory drug tests. She was rumoured to have reached out to her estranged father when he was spotted visiting the center on Sunday, November 7, and they fuelled speculation of a reunion when they enjoyed an outing to a movie theater together on Wednesday.
Michael Lohan has now confirmed they are making good progress in fixing their former family feud. He tells The R List blogger Jenn Hoffman, "I'm looking forward to seeing her again... The only problem is when you are in the public eye like we are, the entire relationship is under scrutiny so it's hard. It's harder for her... I know for a fact she's focusing on herself. I see it more now than ever."
And Lohan is adamant his daughter will be able to revive her flagging movie career once she kicks her addictions. He adds, "She's gifted... (She just needs to stay) on the track she is now and focusing on being Lindsay. That's it."

WEST COVINA - A hike in the state's sales tax may have resulted in weakened auto sales on many lots since the levy took effect April 1, and dealers now worry that increased vehicle license fees could sour sales even more.
Whether or not soft sales are linked to the increased tax increase remains unclear. But the added cost to consumers certainly hasn't helped local dealers in recent days.
Many dealers now say the sales tax increase, though troublesome, didn't have the impact that the increase in the vehicle license fee will have. Those fees are expected to more than double on May 15.
"That's the big one," said Mike Kern, finance manager for Glendora Hyundai and Suzuki.
Dealers said the vehicle license fee on top of the sales tax increase adds up to a double-whammy that ultimately will make selling cars increasingly more difficult.
For instance, the increased sales tax on a $30,000 car would be about $300. But adding the hiked vehicle license fee will increase the cost of that car by $750.
"It's unfortunate," said Linda Steves, co-owner of Tom Steves Chevrolet in La Habra. "I wish they would not have done it. It's hurting an industry that's already hurting."
About the only remaining hope for dealers are manufacturers' incentives designed to soften the blow of increased taxes and fees.
Hyundai is continuing its buy-back deal. The promotion applies to buyers who lose their job in the first year after purchase. For those who qualify, the company will buy the car back.
And GM and Ford have announced programs in which the companies would cover several months of payments in the case of a customer's job loss.
That despite the fact that GM appears on the brink of bankruptcy.
But Steves was confident major brands will survive.
"GM's fine...they are very confident," Steves said. "Even if it does go into bankruptcy, it is going to be a reorganization. Chevrolet, Cadillac and GMC are going to come out on top anyway."
Dealers also hope that sales will spike in the weeks before the increased fee takes effect. A similar spike occurred before the April 1 sales take hike.
"We definitely saw a surge in business, a lot of people were coming in before the increase," said Anthony Iannone, general manager of Ed Butts Ford in La Puente. "But it's going to be hard to tell until the end of the month (if a post-tax slow down) is really part of the sales cycle."
Many dealers promoted lower taxes as a way to attract buyers. In those promotions, auto lots - already reeling from the weak economy - ratcheted up advertising, pushing deals as the last chance for customers to avoid paying sales tax on cars.
"The first week after the increase was really quiet," Iannone said.

San Diego 43, New Orleans 17
SAN DIEGO (Ticker) -- Even with the highest-scoring offense and
the third-ranked quarterback, Marty Schottenheimer wasn't afraid
to reach into his bag of tricks.
Drew Brees passed for four touchdowns and the San Diego Chargers
executed a fake punt and a reverse that led to touchdowns in
the first quarter and rolled to a 43-17 victory over the New
Orleans Saints in an interconference game.
The win was the fifth in six games for the Chargers (6-3), who
lead the league in scoring, and remain tied with Denver for
first place in the AFC West.
"I thought for the most part our football team played with great
emotion and great energy," said coach Marty Schottenheimer.
"That's really a strong indication of their commitment to what's
being done. We're quite pleased with the result of today."
Jesse Chatman took a fake punt 22 yards on San Diego's first
possession and Tim Dwight ran 48 yards on a reverse on the next
drive. Brees finished off the first drive with a 12-yard scoring
pass to tight end Antonio Gates and LaDainian Tomlinson capped
the second with a one-yard TD plunge to give San Diego a 14-0
"When you have a guy like Jesse Chatman to do it and only one
yard to go, I felt very comfortable as did Steve,"
Schottenheimer said. "We executed it and it gave us a little
A week after completing 22-of-25 passes and a career-high five
touchdowns in a win over Oakland, Brees was 22-of-36 for 257
yards for the Chargers, who have won three straight for the
first time since opening the 2002 season with four wins. He
directed the offense to six scores in as many chances in the
red zone to improve the Chargers' red zone efficiency to 32
scores in 34 chances.
"The last six weeks we've come into our own," Brees said. "We've
really established the mindset and attitude of the kind of
offense we want to be. We step on the field saying we can beat
anyone and that's the attitude we need to have."
Brees has completed 121-of-170 passes with 15 scores and one
interception in the last six weeks.
Gates, who was a basketball star at Kent State and never played
a down of college football, caught three touchdown passes. It
marked the first time a Chargers' tight end caught three
touchdowns since Kellen Winslow did so against Kansas City in
1983. Gates leads all tight ends with 54 receptions for 602
yards and eight touchdowns.
"We had no answer; we couldn't cover Gates," said Saints coach
Jim Haslett. "He's big like a receiver. I think he's one of
the best tight ends in the league, if not the best."
San Diego, which has the No. 1 ranked run defense, limited New
Orleans (3-5) to 78 yards on the ground and 243 yards of total
offense. The defensive line harassed Aaron Brooks all day,
sacking him three times, picking off one pass and recording a
safety when an offensive lineman was called for holding in the
end zone.
"I thought (the Chargers defense) did a heck of a job mixing
their coverages and mixing their blitz packages at the right
time," said quarterback Aaron Brooks. "It caused us to struggle
a lot."
Brooks was 16-for-29 for 173 yards with a touchdown for the
Saints, who allowed the most points in a game since Indianapolis
scored 55 against them in Week Four last season.
"They're just better than us," Haslett said. "We had no answer.
I can't single out one guy that played well. Our offense
couldn't block all day. They beat our butts."

Judge Wayne Alley speaks to OU Law students on professionalism
Judge Wayne Alley recently spoke about professionalism and his legal career to the Legal Methods and Externship classes at the College. Judge Alley is a retired Brigadier General, former Dean of the OU College of Law, retired judge for the Western District of Oklahoma, and is currently a Jurist in Residence at OU. He told summer law students about his involvement in the Lt. William Calley appeal during the Vietnam War, commenting on the differences between civil and military tribunals. Judge Alley also described his duties as a federal judge, providing insight on judges' preferences. He gave several examples of good lawyering skills, and the students learned a little Oklahoma trivia as well. A fax from the Federal Courthouse in Oklahoma City to Judge Alley was the last facsimile transmitted before the Oklahoma City Bombing at the Murrah building on April 19, 1995. Civility, preparedness, honesty and diligence were common themes during his discussions. "Thank you for inviting the Judge to speak," one student wrote, "It was a phenomenal presentation."BACK TO MAIN

There are several talented 'big' receivers and Equanimeous St. Brown might be the best of the bunch. He measured in at The Opening at 6-5, 191 pounds and uses his frame and long arms to create a very big catch radius. He has soft hands, has underrated speed and quickness and has improved his physicality and ability to beat press coverage.
"I had an amazing experience," St. Brown said. "There was so much talent there and it was great meeting the guys and learning from them. We talked a lot about recruiting and what schools we were looking at. It was cool to pick each others brain and see who everyone likes and why."
St. Brown said he's likely down with unofficial visits but did set up his first official to Notre Dame.
"I'm going to Notre Dame (Oct. 4) when they play Stanford," St. Brown said. "I took an unofficial there already and liked it a lot so I'm excited to go back. I don't know where else I'll go, my schedule during the season is pretty busy so i'm just playing it by ear.
"It's safe to say Stanford will get one too and I might take one to LSU. I like USC and UCLA too but they're close enough that I could just drive there for an unofficial. I could do an official to one of the local schools too, right now, I'm open to everything. I'm just going to play the season out, watch how these teams look on the field and see where I fit in the best. From there, I'll do my visits and make a decision."

So a week later I get my car back!
They diagnosed and fixed my secondary air system...the pump was already replaced two years ago at another dealer but the SES light still came on that previous dealer was quite hard to deal with and wanted to charge me $300 for new tubes so I said forget it and lived with the light. This time, they replaced the pump again which still didn't work and after more diagnostics they replaced the Secondary air pump relay and that I believe fixed the problem.
My vanos oil supply line was seeping oil however it was NOT covered under the warranty, they quoted me $280 I think. I will change it out myself when I have time.
They also found fault codes for the cylinder ignition coil #2 &6, they did a compression test and replaced coils 2 & 6 under warranty. This was a problem I did not know my car had.
They did not replaced my fuel tank however as the found no problems...lets hope the pump craps out before my warranty ends!
Anyways, I'd highly recommend Crevier BMW as they are quite knowledgeable of the SULEV warranty, their own folder contains more information than we have here and also have lists of what exact parts are covered. Got a nice 2014 328d loaner too, as nice and tech packed they are, I'm much more happier in the e46.

Imagine if you will, that you are traveling with a small and unlikely group, preparing to face the elements.
You drive for hours, and then pull up into a promising-looking row of cars, tents, and sloppily hung blankets. Home sweet home, for now.
Once you choose a camping spot, you try to make it as cozy as possible, and divide up who will be sleeping in tents and who will be in the backs of the cars. You do your best to cook whatever you have with you into some semblance of a breakfast burrito. You put up shields against the sun, and talk amongst yourselves while looking suspiciously at the neighboring tents.
It's quiet…but you know they're out there.
Packing up as much ammo and sunscreen as you can fit into your tiny, cross-body bag, and wearing your most comfortable long-walk shoes, you and the others prepare to storm the entrance. There are no children with you—children couldn't survive here.
You won't be coming back to camp until the hunt is over for the day.
As you approach, you begin to hear noise. It starts as a low, muttering rumble. You see a Ferris wheel in the distance. Motionless. As you come over the ridge, you see them.
Bodies in torn clothes and half-clothes and no clothes at all, swarming through the valley in every direction. You see a pack of them devouring the contents of a hot dog stand, while another set wanders into a tent labeled "SONY."
You check the map and mark what you think are your best bets. You take a deep breath, and push through.
You're inside now.
You can't risk being completely cut off from each other, but you temporarily split off into smaller groups to divide and conquer. One group finds water, another power. You try to find medication for the other guy you left at camp, whose leg is swollen from an allergic reaction, but no luck. You regroup and survey the horde under the largest tent, looking for a weak spot.
"There," says one, pointing to a small open patch of grass in the middle.
You choose the attack carefully, coming from the slightly less dense left flank of the crowd. You move quickly, before the bodies have a chance to react. You grab the open spot just before a girl with feathered hair and body paint reaches it. She blinks at you, and then shuffles away.
You catch your breath for only a moment, and then you see the bodies nearer the front grow louder, and their dirty, sweaty hands go up as they press against each other, grunting and reaching towards the fresh meat that just came on stage.
As the music starts, you relax a bit, and you remember:
You are not in an episode of The Walking Dead. You are at Coachella.
(This has been a dramatization of Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.)
Please understand: I have nothing against Coachella. I enjoyed myself when I went last year. But there has to be some other, better alternative to buying $400 tickets a year in advance to go risk heatstroke and wait in line to charge your cell phone.
It's true—there might not be any other chance (except maybe Outside Lands in San Francisco) for you to see all of the bands on that lineup that you like at once again. And there is value in that. I'd rather get a package festival deal than spend $60 on a ticket, $15 on parking, and $10 on Ticketmaster fees to go sit really far up in an amphitheater and watch one artist I like from a mile away. At least at a festival I have a fighting chance of getting closer.
But even though I saw twenty-five bands in two days, I only really got to enjoy probably five full shows by bands I really liked. The rest of the time I was thinking, "I have to run to the Mojave stage to see ten minutes of Calvin Harris! Then I need to stop by Beirut, and start camping out for Florence and the Machine!" It was pretty chaotic. Except for earlier in the day when it was just too hot to move, and most of the bands playing weren't remotely interesting.
Is the money and effort spent really worth stumbling into the office on Monday morning dead tired, sunburnt, and sporting a dirty wristband?
Ehh. Maybe.
Jimmy Kimmel's lovely viral video of Coachella attendees expressing love for bands that don't exist hit on an important truth: most people who go to Coachella REALLY REALLY want cool points. I know I did. I'm almost unsure how Coachella managed to have any prominence in the days before our social validation came via social media. My very first Instagram photo was of that stupid Ferris wheel.
Maybe one day, a la Woodstock, my kids will ask me to tell them about the time I went to Coachella, and about all of the things I saw. But I sincerely doubt it.
Because the only thing revolutionary about Coachella is the number of different ways teenage girls have invented to paste things onto their bodies to avoid wearing actual clothes. There's not really anything that makes it special, beyond the fact that you can tell your friends that you went.
Would I go again? Possibly. If it had the most killer lineup of all time, and my friends were going and wanted to see exactly the same bands I wanted to see. Or if someone paid for my ticket. Or if they decided to hold the event some less scorching month of the year, like November.
But in general, it felt like more of a bucket-list conquest that doesn't need repeating. There are plenty of cheaper ways to see good music, and sometimes it's a lot more awesome to go to a show without smelling like an animal, and go camping when you're not wearing a $50 Urban Outfitters top that you're afraid someone will spill beer on.
Plus, I have a few more episodes of The Walking Dead to watch.

Halloween is about dressing up as someone different. However, I was disheartened that some find it humorous to parade around as Iraqis with fake bombs strapped to their chests.
This disrespects and hurts veterans who have served and sacrificed in Iraq, and who perhaps witnessed unpleasant events involving this very "costume."
As an Operation Iraqi Freedom veteran and a mental health professional serving veterans, I was saddened by the lack of respect and regard for our service members that this costume presented, even if it was Halloween. More disturbing, one individual wearing this costume represented a popular radio station.
Our returning veterans have made many sacrifices and continue to work to regain their lives that have been altered by service. They deserve to be supported and honored, not mocked by individuals who find offensive costumes comical.

I got into entertainment PR, but then I got fired. So I took a temp job at city hall in West Hollywood. When that job ended, the mayor referred me to a local fitness studio for a desk job. It was eight bucks an hour, but I could take free exercises classes -- I was immediately addicted! One thing led to another and, eventually, I started teaching my own classes.

The Gordon Research Seminar on Lung Development, Injury & Repair is a unique forum for graduate students, post-docs, and other scientists with comparable levels of experience and education to present and exchange new data and cutting edge ideas.
The focus of this meeting is on the influence of development, injury, and/or repair pathways on the initiation and development of lung diseases. Chronic lung diseases such as COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, and asthma are a global health burden, while acute lung injury is a common response to infectious pathogens, with lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths in the United States. A better understanding of progression of various lung diseases will lead to the development of cutting edge treatments. We invite all graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and physician fellows performing research in the area of related fields to submit an abstract for a poster or oral presentation.

Apple said it sold 4 million copies of the iPhone 4S during the three days since it was released Oct. 14.
If all the sales were in the U.S. that would be one iPhone 4S for every 75 people, if we included those too old, too young or too resistant to peer pressure to buy one.
Total sales include numbers from Japan, Australia, France, the U.K, Germany and Canada, so the pandemic is not as bad is my first scan of the headlines made me think it was.
It's not much of a relief, to tell you the truth.
The iPhone is among the best and certainly among the most popular smartphones on the market, but the last big release the iPhone 4 – only sold 600,000 during its first three days. Buying six-and-a-half times as many this time shows humans are getting either more stupid, more eager to have their coolest thing be exactly the same as everyone else's coolest thing, or have developed a follow-the-leader herding instinct that will soon have used-car salesmen, insurance policy floggers and other shady characters walking through heavily populated neighborhoods ringing a little bell to lead the more gullible residents toward another "incredible opportunity," marching order like the rats leaving town behind the Pied Piper.
Nothing against iPhone fans, or even the iPhone itself. It's supposed to be a fine piece of gear, just as most previous versions of the iPhone were. But it's not a big upgrade.
Other versions of the iPhone run iOS5, which is the biggest change, so that's not a big advantantage. And the functionality isn't revolutionary compared to any of the leading Android phones on the market. It might fit your preferences more closely if you like Macs, or rely on a bunch of real productivity enhancing apps your iPhone other than the ones that let you knock down buildings with birds.
But this is the minor upgrade that turned into a major release apparently just so Apple staffers could get one more product-shipping-showstopper out the door before Steve Jobs passed away.
This is a product so underwhelming, especially compared to the iPhone 5 everyone assumed it was from the excitement Apple tried to communicate through invitations to the press conference, that ITWorld blogger colleague Chris Nerney got to write my personal favorite headline of the past several months:
In hilarious practical joke, Apple assembles world's media to not announce iPhone 5.
If I'd been quick or clever enough, Chris and I could have come up with a whole list of things Apple could use to excite customers and the press by not announcing.
It would have been a great story, too; Apple's new strategic direction is to make a huge, splashy deal in the process of not announcing anything very interesting.
Then customers went and bought 4 million of them.
I think the joke wasn't the one Apple pulled calling that press conference; I don't think the joke was the amount of hypey coverage of the new Not-the-iPhone-5 was the joke either.
I think the joke lies somewhere in the number of iPhones people bought so quickly and in such numbers it's clear most buyers didn't care if the phone itself was good or baaaaad. They just want the unique advantages of owning the newest iPhone. Just like everyone else.
