It appears as though Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) went through a relatively successful Christmas quarter. Reports claim that the holiday period saw the iPhone take up a large portion of overall smartphone activations. The tech company is also expected to dial down its iPhone production for the first quarter of 2017.
Talks are surging about Apple Inc.'s upcoming, 10th anniversary iPhone. If the rumors and analyst comments are anything to go by, then fans can anticipate a revolutionary gadget this year. On the investment side of things, concerns about the future of Apple Inc.'s dropping iPhone sales, overseas assets and the shifting political landscape will see business markets fixed on the company's developments.
Apple dials down Q1 iPhone production
A report released this week claims Apple plans to kill its iPhone production by 10 percent for first three months of 2017. The news follows the publication of market research by Flurry — a Yahoo-owned company. Flurry's findings suggest that Apple handsets raked in a great number in sales from the 19th to the 25th of December. The iPhone and iPad alone accounted for 44 per cent of all handset activation during that period. According to Flurry, Apple came out on top of leading handset rivals, including Samsung.
The previous year's results were very similar to the recent Flurry report. Back then, Samsung only made up 19.1 per cent of all handset activations while Apple accounted for nearly 50 per cent.
The reduction in iPhone production is nothing new for Apple. The makers of the iPhone made a similar decision back in January 2016. However, the cut in iPhone production was 20 per cent larger. Apple had reduced the gadget's production by 30 per cent at the start of last year.
The year of the iPhone 8
Back in September, when Apple Inc. revealed its latest iPhone, the device left many iFans unsure if they liked it or not. Although there is a great number of people who like the product, it pulls in reviews describing it as an unimpressive upgrade with very little deviation from the iPhopne 6S. In part, this diverts a lot of attention to this year's i-device. Right now, the iPhone 8 promises to be a lot more appealing than it 2016 sibling.
Apple is also expected to finally be making the jump to OLED screens this year. The technology has long been used on premium handsets with Apple holding back on it. KGI Securities claims the device will come in three versions this Fall, with the two conventional iPhones equipped with LCD screen and another flaunting an OLED display.
OLED offers a few distinct advantages over LED and LCD. The display tech offers better visuals. Light colors are visibly brighter while darker shades gain more depth. It allows for better viewing angles too. OLED is a lot more flexible which contributes to durability. OLED displays are less likely to scratch and crack. Faster responses can be derived from the screen tech.
The biggest reason for Apple holding back on these innovations is cost. The company is looking at reduced profits for the foreseeable future as iPhone sales continue to dwindle. This year saw the company's first dip in revenue since 2001. Adding to the cost of manufacturing won't ideally boost profits unless these enhances bring the iPhone back to its former craze. OLED screens are the viewed as better, but they cost more. The same is true for glass-encased devices. Right now, Tim Cook and his company are faced with lowering profits or letting rivals run away with the market
"We don't know whether Apple's OLED iPhones will be a hit," said Tai Jeng-wu, president at Sharp. However, "if Apple doesn't walk down this path and transform itself, there will be no innovation. It is a crisis but it is also an opportunity."
The bulk of the reports covering the 2017 iPhone are based on rumor and expert commentary. The company itself has had very little to say about the product. Other rumors include and iris scanner and the home button being incorporated into the screen. However, only next fall will reveal how far predictions were from the truth. Apple Inc. Has repeatedly proven that it knows its own business better than expect speculators.
No iPhone 7S
The traditional titling trend that Apple uses for its iPhones is expected to take a minor skip next year. Fans of the company are likely expecting Apple to release an iPhone 7S in 2017. Many reports claim this won't be the case in 2017. Considering the features and significance of this year's gadget, it is thought that Apple might skip the traditional S upgrade and move straight to iPhone 8.
"So there's a good chance that Apple may decide to skip directly to the next full number, naming the 2017 iPhone the iPhone 8." reports KGI Securities.
2017 will mark a decade of iPhone production and only a device fitting of such title will do. Bearing this, an S upgrade might be too mild a title for what will be the Cupertino giant's 10th anniversary iPhone. The name iPhone 8 has not be confirmed by the company, but experts believe it to be the most "logical" choice considering the weight of the 2017 iPhone.
Glass iPhone 8
Apple has not encased its iPhones in glass since the iPhone 4S half a decade ago. The company is rumored to be giving the concept another go. How Apple plans to do this without significantly effecting the weight and durability of the iPhone is a concern for some. However, the use of innovative glass, like Gorilla Glass, is coming to the fore and especially seen on more premium handsets. Experts say a glass iPhone could be a sure way to regather the device's lost appeal while staying in-line with the firm's obsession with making its products slimmer and lighter.
The glass would also enhance the device's chargeability. Reports highlight that glass, unlike plastic or metal, can enable wireless charging at greater speeds "with minimum disruption from frequency interface."
Apple ventures deeper into Asian markets
Apple CEO Tim Cook earlier stated he is confident of transforming India into the next China for his company. Despite his excitement, there is still quite a lot of headroom to grow. The Cupertino-based firm is currently in talks with the Indian government to manufacture its products in the country. A senior Indian government official with direct knowledge of the matter was quoted by Business Standard as saying, "Apple wants to emulate its China model in India. The company wants financial incentives, which the concerned government departments are looking into."
Apple already settling in India
Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:AAPL) manufacturer Foxconn already has a well-established smartphone building facility in Andhra Pradesh. It holds a capacity of 1 million handsets per month. Dispite that, the firm is still a week player in the region. With soaring demand from domestic and foreign players, Faxconn is thinking about ramping up its operations in different parts of India.
In May this year, Foxconn announced it is interested in a 1,200-acre area of land in Maharashtra after looking at a few other Indian states. A report from 9to5mac.com reveals, The assembly factory built on the land will focus solely on iPhone manufacturing. It will cost about $10 billion as well. Making the manufacturing plot operational should take about 18 months from the time the deal is inked. There is also a number of several states in India which can offer the logistics demanded in a large-scale operation like building iPhones. Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh are two vibrant examples. Foxconn's Head of India, Josh Foulger clears the air surrounding India's logistical issues.
"India, from a manufacturing standpoint, has a logistic advantage, not just for India but for the Middle East and Africa. The ASP of products is very similar," Foulger reports. "If you look at making India a manufacturing destination for 800 million phones, it looks very attractive. India's cost is competitive. It takes time but if managed well, it can bring results."

Back to the 50's
Jose Zuniga
I awoke in the backseat of a Ford Thunderbird. Three other people another guy and two girls were also in the car. They seemed very familiar. The guy, with his dark jeans and tucked in white t-shirt with rolled up sleeves to his shoulder, told me to wake up and hurry into the restaurant.
We stopped at a Milkshake and Burger Restaurant. As I got out of the car I saw my apparel, a black leather jacket with some blue jeans. On my feet I had the newest edition Converse All-Stars. I enter the restaurant I am seated with the group of people that were in the car. The two girls, very beautiful and of short stature. One sits next to the guy that drove. I find his name is Johnny. The other girl has red hair and blue eyes. With her white top and pink skirt, she sits beside me. She tells me her name is Donna, and we work up a conversation. We eat our burgers and we are on our way. A hot, sunny day, saw us, take a trip to the beach. The girls are wearing their hair long, and other with it short. The way of life is beautiful here. nobody worries about a thing. Prosperity is in abundance, and everybody just seems very happy I still do not know in what period I have ended up in.
After the beach, we change out of our beach clothes go cruising. This is very fascinating as I have never done this. We drive by the beaten and by the buildings I know we are in Los Angeles, CA. We turn on the radio and I finally know the date. May 25, 1955, I am in the 50's, and I do not want to leave. The end of the day has us at at the drive - in movie theatre. The movie is, of course great, but what amazed me was the theatre. The cars and the atmosophere in the theatre.
I fall back asleep in the back of the Thunderbird. I awake back in my seat. The clock reads 1:13 PM. The date, March 30, 2015. I am back in my normal time.

GBPUSD Weekly Forex Forecast – 26th to 30th Dec 2016
The main theme in the Forex space remains the broad based dollar strength and the GBPUSD continued to head lower despite a lower level of trading activity. A bounce seems more likely in the current trading environment as the dollar rally has gone too far in a very short period of time. The stochastic indicator is already for quite some time in oversold conditions and last week low 1.2228 can provide us with a good support level from where GBPUSD can bounce, however, a break and a close below last week low will expose 1.2150.
The first major level of resistance comes in at 1.2360 followed by the last week's opening price 1.2476 which is very close to the big psychological 1.2500 level. The UK economic calendar is empty but traders need to be aware of the fact that the current low level of trading activity might be the catalyst for some erratic behavior.

Rated 4 out of 5 by John1138 from Beautiful Scent - Average Performance Lovely scent but only average projection/longevity. Still worth a purchase in my opinion. Like a lighter version of Gucci Pour Homme I with cinnamon thrown into the mix. 4/5.

Rated 4 out of 5 by blackers from special occaion fragrance I have a cupboard full of aftershaves simply because I like a change every day. I think if you wear the same one everyday it looses its appeal. I tried this at the airport and when I got home I decided to buy some. For me this one lasts very well probably because it is a perfume which is quite a lot more potent than eau de toilette. A very masculine fragrance which is woody but very sweet, not overpowering though. I tend to save this one for special occasions or going out in the evening and I have had lots of comments on how nice I smell. If you like this try ysl m7 oud which is also very woody.

Taurus PT92-AF
I picked up a used PT92 at the Indy 1500 gun show last weekend so I've been itching to get down the range to try it out, and this afternoon I did.
Like I said it was used, and just came with the one magazine, no box or manual but I got it for a good deal and after today's range trip I'm more than happy with my purchase. I'd shot a friends Beretta 92FS before and loved the feel of the gun but even used they were a bit rich for me right now but having fired both I don't feel as if I scrimped and went for a lesser weapon. I put nearly 150 rounds through it this afternoon with zero problems of any kind, need to grab a few different brands of ammo just to try other options and get some more practice in. A couple more magazines and a mag loader wouldn't go amiss either :D
I love just how easy the Taurus is to strip to cleaning which is my next job, a good clean and oil job.
I was shooting a little way back from the 15ft line and my best 5 shot group was 1 1/2". The rest were anywhere from 2 1/2 to 4" so I know I need to get more range time in but this will be my home defense weapon as well as range piece so I want to know it inside and out and feel 100% comfortable with it. As it stands now though any of the shots I fired today would have hit a bad guy where it counts so I know I'm off to a good start.
I've read alot of good and bad things about the Taurus but so far I'm a very happy PT92 owner!
looks like a clean piece. whats the mag capacity?
I'm glad to hear about your experience. Ive been looking at this hand gun and have heard some good stuff about the Taurus model.
The mag capacity is 17 but I was stopping at 15, it's still tight and a struggle to get the last couple in as it is.
Nice looking piece. Around here I see used Taurus PT92's for sale regularly at local shops and they are always priced within $50 of a used Beretta 92. Folks seem to really like the gun. ;)
How do you like the Sellier & Bellot ammo? I've got four boxes of .45 Auto FMJ I got cheap and was wondering how it runs. Seems like most of the ammo I pickup lately is so dirty I hate to shoot it.
Congrats on your new pistol. I like those S&B rounds a lot too. they are a little hot and usually really accurate. Hard to beat the price on them too.
I found the S&B rounds nice and smooth, recoil was nothing but then again I was expecting much from a 9mm. They were all clean and fed fine.
The other rounds I was shooting was some hand loaded 115gr that I also picked up at the show. I don't know what the specs were etc but they shot fine but the S&B's seemed a bit more accurate, to me inexperienced hands anyway :p
When did Taurus start frame mounting the safety?? I like that MUCH better than the Beretta's slide mounted one.
Good looking piece. Sounds like you are happy and if those groups are an indication, you can shoot her well too. :D
Congrats on the new addition.
Wheelspin, those Taurus PT 92`s are supposed to be very good guns.
When Beretta won the Brazilian Army contract for suppliying them with Beretta's 92's, one condition was that they would be made in Brazil by Beretta, so after this was done Beretta sold their machinery to Taurus,so they say they are very similar in quality to the original Beretta 92`s but a at a lower price.

It's not often the police have got your back when you're enjoying some of your favourite herb, but that was the case this weekend in Washington state.
With the recent change of legalisation making recreational cannabis legal in Washington State, Hempfest has been held over the weekend and there's not much the police could do about the fans attending and the consumption of large amounts of weed. To counteract any possible law breaking they took a novel approach to keeping all the people looking to get high in line.
To explain the rules surrounding recreational marijuana use in the state they hit up on the idea of targeting people with the munchies by applying stickers to Doritos bags and handing them out.
It's a refreshing change from the prejudice often felt from law enforcement officials towards cannabis smokers and great to see them taking a common sense approach.

Women cheat too, yes. But I have known many girls who have never cheated. I have never met a guy who did not cheat. Even my dad, I suspect, has cheated on my mom, though I don't dare tell her that. It sucks, because I crave a faithful marriage so badly, but I feel that no matter what type of relationship I have, the man will always cheat. Every boyfriend I've had has also cheated on me.
Guys, what's your definition of cheating?
What is the worst you've done while in a relationship, such as flirting, kissing, sex, etc?
I'm very thankful that most of the guys were being incredibly mature and respectful.
I'll just ignore the one or two jerks and go with what the nice guys told me. :)
Thanks again!
Most Helpful Guy
No I've never cheated while in a relationship.
Worst I've had is one girlfriend thought I liked another girl.
Girl I had been talking to before my gf and I were together stayed my friend after we got together. She had lingering feelings and flirted and I thought it was ok, because I wasn't going to do anything. And I never did.
We did end up breaking up because of my friendship with that girl. It was my fault, but I learned a lesson from it all. Either way, I was always loyal.00|00|0
To be fair to the question, a lot of guys don't cheat in a relationship because other girls aren't after them. It's the guys that other girls will still go after that actually have to practice loyalty
- Show AllShow Less
You don't think me waiting for sex has anything to do with it?
That's what I've been told by others, and it was really discouraging.
Unfortunately, therapists cost money, but.. if I ever get the opportunity, then I will.
I no longer see a therapist since I moved.
Good guys, even average guys don't become abusive because they haven't had sex yet. Bad guys who were already abusive will find an excuse to do it. That's not the reason.
But yes, you should totally invest some time into that. I think you'll really benefit from that

The Gophers came back to life in the third period, allowing just three shots on goal and staying out of the penalty box. The Gophers recorded 11 shots in the final period.

Oncor, Dallas Really Wants Lights (and Heat) Kept On at City Hall and Convention Center
Personally, I'd love nothing more than to see the council chambers go dark during this morning's briefing. Need something to liven up that ho-hum agenda that includes runaway shopping carts and a look at the Mayor's Youth Fitness Initiative -- or MyFi, as it's called. Besides, what glorious irony: That thing's funded by Oncor, remember?
This just in from Frank Librio, the city's public information officer (along with an updated clarification):
The City has requested that, if possible, City Hall and the Dallas Convention Center (which is hosting the NFL Experience) be exempt from rotating power outages. City Hall is open today for the Dallas City Council Briefing and other public business and it is also where the Emergency Operations Center is located for Super Bowl week. The EOC is operational 24 hours a day during Super Bowl Week monitoring, and responding if needed, to public safety issues associated with hundreds of special events. These operations are critical. Some libraries and/or recreation centers and other City facilities may be impacted by the rotating power outages.
Also, there will be many dark traffic signals and subsequent malfunction issues associated with the rotating power outages. Please remind commuters that signals may be dark and to proceed with caution. State Law requires the drivers stop at a dark traffic signal. The City will be assigning extra staff to restore traffic signal operations through out the day.
Clarification: The City of Dallas is cooperating with the power shedding plan implemented by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). There are a number of city facilities and traffic signals that are currently being affected. City Hall, which houses the 911 call center and the Emergency Operations Center, is considered a critical facility so it would not be affected.
Speaking of rolling blackouts, Dallas Area Rapid Transit sends word: "20 minute service for DART Rail. Rolling blackouts are causing additional delays throughout the system."
And while we're getting all community announcementy here: Check out the modified garbage pick-up schedule for this week. Long story short: There won't be none.

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 have always been on time with my rent payments, the term lease was indefinite, however the house is now up for sale. If it is sold do I only have 30 days to find a new place, move, etc? I don't want to keep looking, when I know it may take months to sell in this economy.
A landlord who wants to terminate a month-to-month tenancy can do so by properly serving a written 30-day or 60-day notice (if the tenancy is over 12 months) on the tenant. Generally, a 30-day or 60-day notice does not have to state the landlord's reason for ending the tenancy.Ask a similar question

Boiling Threats
Devion's mouth dropped open and he dropped the box, causing it to tumble to the ground as Kialuk scrambled over to where Devion was.
"What are you doing here?" he exclaimed.
Kayun brushed the dust off of his robes as the stood. "I wanted to come with you guys," he replied simply.
"B-but... w-w-hat..." stammered Kialuk, at a loss for words.
"I snuck onto the boat while no one was watching," explained Kayun, "and hid under that crate."
"But why did you want to come?" Devion asked.
The young airbender shrugged. "I wanted to be here when the Fire Nation came. I wanted to do something... something more than 'help' you Islanders reform your ways." he said, adding air quotes around the word "help".
"What's this?" came the captain's booming voice from further back. "A stowaway?" The three boys turned to see the tall man walking towards them, his expression unreadable.
Kayun gave a weak smile and scratched his head. The captain crossed his arms and shook his head.
"I guess there's nothing I can do about it," he muttered. "We're already here. You'll just have to deal with the chief."
Heaving a sigh, the captain turned around and ordered everyone to continue. Slowly, all the teenagers shifted their eyes away from the stowaway and went back to work as the cutter sailing ship pulled into the busy port of Palua.
Devion looked at Kayun and shook his head before grabbing his bag, stuffing his sleeping roll in it, and then picking the box up with Kialuk. Together, they joined the stream of people leaving the boat and followed them down the long dock. Dozens of boats were moored to the many piers extending from the cove.
A group of men clad in white robes with blue lining were walking down the beach towards the five Water Tribe boats. Chief Moi and four other senior Kiolu warriors broke away from the rest of the men and strode up to meet the incoming men.
Curious, Devion and Kialuk moved past everyone in front of them and dropped their box on the beach about fifty feet away from Chief Moi and the other men. They were talking in quiet voices, and from the way Chief Moi talked to the man from the other group, Devion assumed the man was the mayor of Palua.
They talked for about another minute and then Chief Moi turned back to the gathered warriors from Kiolu. "Mayor Kiona says the Fire Nation are docked on the other side of Palua and that he was about to send me a message," he announced loudly. "He also told me that we can set up camp beach beside the harbor. I will go and check out the Fire Nation and speak with them briefly. The rest of your, please begin making the campsite."
Chief Moi and the warriors around him turned and followed Mayor Kiona into the city. Everyone started to move along the harbor. Devion and Kialuk picked up the box and lugged it towards where Chief Moi indicated they would take shelter.
The small beach beside the harbor was quiet spot. A line of palm trees separated it from the harbor and one side was backed by rocks and plants at the base of the mountain. The sea wrapped around the other two sides of the sandy strip.
"Do you think this is big enough for us all to take shelter on?" asked Kialuk as he and Devion set the box down against a large rock.
Devion squinted and looked around. "Probably," he said. "There are about three hundred of us. The senior warriors will get tents, and I'd say are about fifty of them. Everyone else will have to sleep in the open, so we'll all be able to fit."
A soldier walking by stopped when he saw Devion and Kialuk sitting on the box. "All boxes are supposed to go over there by Hanuk," he said, pointing at a tall, lean man with short brown hair.
"We'll take it right over," said Kialuk. He dropped his bag in the sand and then rolled out his sleeping roll. "So people don't steal this spot," he added, glancing up at Devion.
Devion did the same as Kialuk and they once again picked up the large wooden box from the sand. They carried it over to the large stack of boxes. Devion awkwardly climbed up onto one box as Kialuk heaved the crate up to Devion, where he slid it above two other boxes.
Wiping their hands on their clothes, the duo moved back to where they had left their sleeping rolls and bags. Nani and Waipae walked onto the beach and Devion raised his arms. Nani saw him and tugged on Waipae's shirt. They both walked over to Devion and set their bags down on the sand.
"This is nice," Waipae said, looking around at the beach. "It should be pretty comfortable to sleep on."
"I just hope the tide doesn't come up here," muttered Nani. "That would ruin my night if I got sucked out into the ocean while sleeping."
All four of them laughed and then they settled down on the ground. Devion wiggled his feet in the warm sand and pulled up a handful of the grains, watching as they showered down between his fingers.
"I wonder how long we'll be here?" he asked after several minutes of silence.
"We'll find out soon," Kialuk commented. "Look, there's Chief Moi and the others."
Devion looked over at the palm trees and sure enough, Chief Moi and the other four men were walking onto the beach. Chief Moi's brows were furrowed and his face looked aggravated and bewildered at the same time.
He hopped up onto a rock and cleared his throat loudly. Even over all the noise of settling in, everyone fell silent and turned their heads to face their chief. "The Fire Nation is camping on the mountainside," he began. "There are about three hundred of them and they have five large, steel ships. I briefly talked with the captain and he claimed he was here on peaceful terms. We organized a time tonight to meet and discuss the Fire Nation's presence in the Island Tribes. That is all."
"I wonder what they want," muttered Waipae. "Why would they have attacked one of our ships if they were here on 'peaceful terms'?"
"That's what we'll find out tonight," came the deep voice of Chief Moi as he walked up behind Waipae. Frightened, he jumped forward while sitting a foot before turning around to face Chief Moi.
"I'm sorry," chuckled Chief Moi. "I can tell you weren't expecting me to come over here." Without giving time for a response, the chief looked over at Devion and Kialuk. "I want you two to accompany me to the meeting tonight. You witnessed what the man said back in Kiolu. It's only right you should be there."
Devion smiled. "Thank you, sir," he said, dipping his head. An excited bubble rose in his stomach. He was going to attend an important meeting between two nations. Now, it wasn't between the two leaders of the nations, but it would still be very significant.
Nani looked over at Devion and Kialuk. "Well aren't you two lucky?" she said. "That's a real honor, actually. I wish I could go. It'll be very interesting."
"Yeah, it will," put in Kialuk. "I'm a little nervous, though. These Fire Nation men sound dangerous. It could escalate into a battle."
"Chief Moi will make sure we'll get out of there if a battle happens," Devion said. "There's no way he'll put us at risk like that."
Kialuk nodded and leaned back against the rock while Devion stared out at the ocean, his mind rushing with thoughts of the upcoming discussion.
Night had fallen and fires were springing up around the camp on the beach. Devion, Kialuk, Waipae, and Nani were huddled around their small fire, watching the flames burning away at the wood. Just a few minutes back, they'd gotten through the long line near the boxes and were served some sea prune stew, a slice of bread, and a cup of water.
Most of the teenagers had sorted into small groups and found spots to spend the night back by the rocks. All the other men had gathered into bigger groups and set up their sleeping spots closer to the water. Every few minutes, a cacophony of laughter arose from one of the groups.
So it was unusual when an outburst of noise came from where Makanui and his friends sat a few dozen feet down from Devion and the others.
"Go away!" someone yelled.
"We don't want you near us," another person hissed.
"Get out of here!" shouted Makanui angrily.
A dark shape rose up from a few feet behind away from the group and wandered about ten feet before hopping up onto one of the rocks. Devion instantly knew who it was--Kayun. Feeling sorry for the way Makanui and his friends treated Kayun, Devion stood up and beckoned over towards his fire.
"Kayun," he said. "Come over here."
Kayun hopped down from the rock and walked towards the fire, sitting down against one of the rocks. "Thanks," he muttered. "You're basically the first people that have shown me any kindness. Most of the people my age have been rude and mean, while the older men have basically ignored me."
"Well, the older men ignore us, too," Waipae muttered with a laugh. "So don't feel too bad about that."
"But everyone else has no right to treat you like this," Nani said, casting a disgusted glance over at Makanui. "It's just cruel."
"I have a question," interjected Kialuk. "You know there's potential for a battle, right?"
Kayun nodded slowly, taking a sip of his stew.
"You're an Air Nomad," he continued. "Air Nomad's are supposed to be peaceful. You came here knowing there could be a fight and that didn't stop you. Why?"
Kayun sighed loudly. "I was sent here with the other missionaries as a punishment," he began. "The elders thought it would help to straighten me out, because I've always been a rule breaker. But what they don't understand is that I don't want to be a monk. I don't want to be an Air Nomad. I want to be an airbender, not an Air Nomad. I never had a choice in my life up until now. By coming on this boat, I can prove that just because I'm an airbender doesn't mean I'm a nomad. I want to do something in this world besides sitting around in a temple and talking about peace."
For a moment, there was silence. Then Kialuk said, "That actually makes quite a bit of sense, and I think you were really brave for coming here."
Footsteps sounded on the sand near their fire and a soldier walked into the orange light. "Chief Moi is ready to leave for the meeting," he told Devion and Kialuk. "Meet them at the palm trees as soon as you finishing eating."
Devion nodded hastily and swallowed the last bit of his soup and shoved the bread into his mouth. "See you guys later," he told his friends through his full mouth as he stood up. "I'll tell you all about it."
As they said quiet goodbyes, Devion and Kialuk turned away from the fire and jogged towards the palm trees, weaving around the dark forms of sitting men. Chief Moi was waiting there with seven other men, all of whom Devion recognized as senior warriors from Kiolu.
"We will meet up with Mayor Kiona in town," said Chief Moi. "The Fire Nation captain and his delegation will be waiting for us at the beach. Do not fear," he added at the uneasy faces of the men. "The mayor has scattered guards all around the meeting spot, so if anything goes wrong, they'll be there as backup."
That reassured everyone, but Devion still felt a little nervous. These very same Fire Nation soldiers slaughtered twelve men who were doing nothing but sailing into port. He hoped everything would be peaceful, because he didn't want a confrontation against powerful firebenders.
They walked up the beach and into the town. Devion looked around Palua with a smile on his face. It was quite a gorgeous town. Due to the mountains on both sides, darkness fell over the city, but soft golden lights stood on wooden poles every few feet, illuminating the stone roads. The wooden houses were larger and nicer than most of the houses in Kiolu. The nightlife here was much busier than Kiolu, too. People strolled through the streets and walked in and out of taverns and restaurants. Palua was quite a charming town.
Citizens gave the group of Kiolu warriors a second glance, but other than that, no one reacted to them. They made it through the pleasant town in about five minutes before Mayor Kiona and two men dressed in the white clothing of Palua stepped out of a house right beside the beach.
"Ah, you are here!" said the mayor kindly, spreading his arms. "We must hurry. I'd prefer to get this meeting done as quickly as possible."
"I wholeheartedly agree, Kiona," replied Chief Moi, his jaw barely moving. Devion could tell the chief was very tense and nervous about this meeting.
In silence, the thirteen people walked down the slope from the town and onto the white beach. A wooden table had been laid out about fifty feet from the shore. Torches illuminated the sand around the table, giving off a soft, orange glow.
As Devion looked around the beach, he noticed that the harbor was positioned to the right of the town, instead of being straight on the beach like the other side of Palua. He also observed that the beach was totally empty. There were no Fire Nation soldiers anywhere.
Chief Moi stopped and held up his hand, signaling for the rest of the group to halt. He looked around the beach, breathing in and out deeply. "Where are the Fire Nation?" he asked, his voice loud and clear.
Mayor Kiona looked around nervously. "They should be here," he muttered. "I told them to arrive before we did."
Dark figures jumped down from the ledge at the south side of the beach. Instinctively, Devion spun towards the movement and crouched down into a bending stance. The other warriors followed his gaze and drew their weapons or prepared to bend.
"Don't attack!" hissed Chief Moi. "It's the captain and his men."
Slowly, everyone relaxed, though Devion's heart was still pounding. They walked to the table and Chief Moi sat down at one end. The Fire Nation captain and his men reached the meeting spot and the captain sat, too.
Devion narrowed his eyes as he looked at the man. He wore an entitled expression on his face, as if everything that happened around him was supposed to be for him. His face was elongated and thin with a graying beard sitting upon his pointed chin. His hair, almost completely gray, was tied back in a ponytail. Overall, to Devion, he looked like a snarky, deceiving son of a gemsbok bull.
"Hello," he said, his voice cold and cunning. "I am Captain Uso of the Fire Nation."
Chief Moi stared back at him. "I assume that was directed more towards my men instead of me?" he asked, raising his eyebrows.
Uso nodded slowly. "Now, what would you like to discuss?"
"Why are you here?" Chief Moi questioned directly. "What is your purpose in the Islands?"
The man's eyes flickered and the right corner of his mouth tilted into a sly grin. "So brusque," he muttered, shifting in his seat. "We're all here just to talk, are we not? Such hostility for a peaceful meeting, isn't it?"
Devion breathed out loudly, ready to spit out a stream of words insulting Captain Uso for being a lying murderer. But he kept his cool and clenched his fists as the discussion went on. "You asked me what I wanted to talk about, and I told you," grumbled Chief Moi. "I repeat, what do you want from us?"
Uso placed an elbow onto the table and leaned forward. "I'm here to ask you for something by the direct order of Fire Lord Heizu," he answered.
Chief Moi shifted his shoulders and straightened up. "Ask away," he told Uso. "But that doesn't mean you'll get it."
"Over the past few decades," began Uso, "the Fire Nation has been using the last of our natural resources. After searching for years, some of our scouts have informed us that your islands are rich in natural resources that we might need in the future. What we ask is that you give us one or two of your less-important islands."
Devion's mouth dropped open. The offer was preposterous. Why would they ever give up one of their less-important islands to the all-consuming Fire Nation? It was horrendous, and he prayed that Chief Moi would decline Captain Uso.
"Give you one of our islands?" exclaimed Chief Moi. "For nothing in return?"
Shaking his head, Uso swiped his hands in front of his face. "We will not leave you empty handed, Chief Moi," he said. "In return, we would gift you with seven of our very own steel warships."
A chuckle came out of the chief's mouth. "We don't want your steel warships," he said hurriedly, looking around at his men, who nodded in agreement. Devion was one of the first to start nodding; a steel warship was exactly the opposite of what the Water Tribes used, and they were perfectly fine with using their wooden sailing ships.
"Fire Lord Heizu thought you would say that..." remarked Uso snugly. "So I'm afraid I have to tell you if you do not offer us one of your islands, we may or may not take it by force."
Anger and shock flashed in Chief Moi's eyes as he stared at Uso's smug expression. Devion knew he was struggling between keeping his pride as chief of a Water Tribe or protecting his people and sacrificing some of his land.
"I-I need time," he stammered. "But-but I thought you said you were here on peaceful terms?"
Uso chuckled. "I am here on peaceful terms. We haven't attacked anyone!"
"What about that trading boat you destroyed?" interrogated Chief Moi, flexing his arms as his hands were clenched into fists. "And the crew members you killed?"
For a brief moment, surprise sat on Uso's face, but it quickly vanished. "Oh, that small ship," he murmured casually. "Yes, that was an unfortunate accident. You see, we were moving through waters at night, and seeing as how our ship is much larger than a tiny trading boat of the islands, we accidentally crushed the back of that sail boat. As we boarded to tell them we would help them get to safety, the traders attacked us. Our only option was to fight back. It was tragic, really." He put on a regretful face, but Devion could see his eyes laughing cruelly.
Devion's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. His mind flashed back to the honesty on the stranger's face as he recounted the story of what happened to his boat. There was truthfulness in his voice, and Devion had known the man was speaking without lying. But here, this usurper Uso had completely changed the story. He was lying, making it up.
Before Chief Moi could open his mouth, Devion stepped forward. "You're lying," he said, his teeth gritted. "I talked to the man who survived your slaughter. He said you struck his boat and then attacked him and his crew. And he wasn't lying."
"Devion..." began Chief Moi warningly, but Uso cut him off.
"Do you really believe the word of a half-conscious, injured man over a fully sane, qualified captain?" he asked Devion, a hint of anger in his cold voice.
"Yeah, I do," replied Devion hotly. "Because he didn't take a force of fifty men and kill twelve men like you did, even if the dozen crew members did attack you first!" His chest heaving, Devion glared daggers at Uso, and Uso was watching back with narrowed, fiery eyes.
Uso threw a look of disgust at Devion and then abruptly rose from his chair, a light haze of smoke arising with him. "Learn to control your children, Chief Moi," he hissed. As he started to walk away, he spun back around and said, "You have one week to decide. I'll be waiting on a smaller island away from these people." His voice was full of anger and contempt, but right there, by the way he spoke, Devion knew everything he had just said about the trading ship was a lie.
The Fire Nation men walked back down the beach and towards their mountainside camp. Chief Moi slowly stood up and looked at Devion. "I admire how you acted," he muttered slowly. "But I suggest you do not do that around Uso again."
Without waiting for an answer, Chief Moi turned to the rest of the men. "We'll leave tomorrow at dawn," he announced. "Let's get back to camp. We have much to discuss."
And with those words, the group of thirteen turned away from the makeshift meeting spot and headed back to their campsite.

We all know what evolution is. That is the science of warm-blooded creatures walking into the sea to become whales and dolphins after crawling out of the sea to become warm-blooded creatures. It is that simple. Happens all the time.
Political evolution happens as well. There was a shining example of it on display last week in post-paleolithic/Claremont New Hampshire. Our beloved (in the polls for now) Governor John Lynch evolved into something new and from now on we have a highly evolved uber-species of governor. His scientific name for ever-more will be:
Governor Volynchski. Pronounced: Vol-lynch-ski.
The old governor, Lynch, was a creature designated to a very small deciduous, indecisive habitat. He had no natural enemies because a larger predator, Media New Hampshirosis, swallowed them up. The only other creature in direct competition with Lynch in this happy jungle was a friendly, timid, but highly successful plant eater - when he wasn't being cannibalized by other members of its own species.
The newly evolved Governor Volynchski has been – through selective judicial breeding, mated with a weasel-tempered animal which also possesses shark-like tendencies.
Suddenly, the hapless, indecisive Lynch, once the most popular creature in the jungle, must take action that may put him in danger of becoming extinct. He must feed his new darker side!
Should he change his stripes to spots? Can he evolve from being a vegetarian to a meat eater in time to survive or will the Neanderthals in the hills come to eat him up?
I see campfires and hear drums in the distance.

Seeking Information On Home Business? Then Look Below!
Affiliate marketing can be an essential part of your website's future. You need to do all of your research so that you don't lose a ton of money or customers. You also need to have a reliable network of affiliates. There are some tips listed below to help you start.
Place keywords in website content. By doing this, the search engines will recognize that your site is probably related to certain keywords and rank the site accordingly. But take care to do this naturally; abnormal keyword stuffing seems unnatural and unreadable to some. Just use the keywords in a conversational way.
To make sure you are paid for every sale that you make, ask about how the affiliate marketing program you join is going to keep track of your work. Make sure the program you join tracks where the visitor that bought something came from through cookies, and that they count mail or phone orders as well as online ones.Usually individuals who appreciate this article realize, yet there are times when they do not.
When you partake in affiliate advertising on your website, it is important that you be transparent about who you are partnering with. When you are honest, your visitors will feel better about contributing to your profit. If you seem like you are hiding something, your visitors may go directly through the vendor, instead of using your link.
Offer visitors to your website exclusive content or services if they make a purchase from the advertisers in your affiliate marketing program. Do not restrict vital information this way, but make sure that visitors who do buy get something of definite value out of your websites bonus content. This will encourage both purchases from your affiliate and repeat visits to your website.
Try to avoid becoming a "super" affiliate. They put their energy in too many places, they choose too many products, and they have too many promotions going at once to stay effectively competitive at any one thing. Keep in mind that there is no such thing as maximum results in affiliate marketing. It's more important to find out what works best for you and your business.
Using videos to help promote your affiliate service is a great way to increase traffic. It's not really hard work either. All you need is to shoot a single video, and then you can post it on countless viral sites, send it via email, and spread the word all over the net. A little bit of work goes a long way with video marketing.
Keep your role in mind. As an affiliate marketer, you do not have to be a hard-sale artist with a slick pitch. Just let people know about how the products you endorse can benefit them. Be sincere and genuine, but don't turn them off with a high-powered, hard-sell campaign. The company that produces the product already has well-researched sales materials in place.
Affiliate marketing can be very rewarding, but it can also be a lot of work. Regardless, if you know what to do and how to market smarter, you can really help promote your website. So, do yourself a favor and do your research and apply the above tips to your affiliate marketing strategy.

Heya, all. I just hit a nasty little speedbump. One of my clients needs to perform an accounting close-out in their primary business application by 2/29. The vendor's best practice for this procedure includes making a reference copy of the database prior to the close-out.
I'm running SQL Server 2005 RTM on a server I inherited. The wizards specified to perform the database copy aren't running, and the error codes referenced have been fixed in various service packs. It must be noted that, while I can get by in SQL Server, I'm far from a SQL Server expert.
Microsoft says that SQL Server 2005 SP4 has no prerequisites; I should - theoretically - be able to install it without issue.
Not good words to use when dealing with the primary business application that pretty much runs the entire shop.
Aside from the obvious "back it up nine ways from Thursday", does anyone have any advice on performing this upgrade? Does RTM to SP4 generally go well? Any issues with SP4 installation in general?

I don't think you'll hit anything wrong. I've never had any issues. But you know how these things go. I don't think anyone can give you 100% assurance. Make sure you have good backups in place and that you've tested the restore. Make sure you have the original media. Then go for it.
Feb 21, 2012 at 7:37 UTC
The only snags i found when moving databases was that SQL likes the sames revision level as that of the backed up database so if there Server has a more recent SP applied you may also need to upgrade to the same.
I would try doing a test restore first .
Feb 24, 2012 at 7:39 UTC
Thanks, guys. I'll be firing off the SP install tomorrow morning after verifying tonight's backup was successful.
**crosses fingers**

1st Post
I just did it on a cross cluster with replication with 2 SQL server 2005SP3, my passive instances was for one in SP3 and the other one in RTM
I did all update in one time by putting both active instances on the same node (so the other node with the 2 passiv server one in SP3 and the other one in RTM)
no trooble for the update
but i had trooble to put back online the push replication between both instances
after few try I find out that the update change the auth type of my servers
before we was in mix Windows + SQL and after updated all instances was in windows only and of cause the replication was using a sql account. probleme solve by putting back in Mix Authentification
did someone enjoy the same trooble ?
Mar 8, 2012 at 3:41 UTC
no one get the same as me by installing the SP4
on a Cluster ?
on a 2005RTM ?
if u have some feedback for me, I just try to understand why the auth level change

I DISAGREE with Steve Cox, (Letters, July 8) that the Battle of Britain fly past struck a jarring note in York's celebration of the Tour de France.
People in my age-group have clear memories of the Second World War. The sight of that tiny machine brought tears to my eyes, as I recalled York Theatre Royal's 2012 production of The Guinea Pig Club, the play about Sir Archibald McIndoe, the pioneering plastic surgeon who rebuilt the faces of surviving Spitfire pilots who were grossly disfigured by burns suffered during combat.
The fuel tank in a Spitfire was immediately in front of the pilot's seat.
The Battle of Britain was not the only turning point in the war, but I and many others would have had a very different adolescence had the Germans not been defeated, and the high-flyers among our Jewish contemporaries would not have been able to make their contributions to the arts, medicine and academia.
I hope that the fly-past was a reminder of this, to later generations.
Competitors from nations which used to be one another's enemies have long been able to take part together in international sporting events, but the courage of those young Spitfire pilots, 70 years ago, deserved a salute at last Sunday's celebrations.
Mary Machen, Main Street, Fulford, York.
• IN my opinion Steve Cox (Letters, July 8) has it totally wrong when he says that the fly-past by the Spitfire and Lancaster ruined a good day.
These iconic aircraft and the brave men who flew in them are looked upon by millions of people throughout the world as the saviour of the free world.
Had it not been for these aircraft Mr Cox might not have been able to watch the tour on Sunday as the world we live in would be totally different to what it is now.
This weekend is the Flying Legends airshow at The Imperial War Museum Duxford and the show has 40,000 to 50,000 visitors each day and the two aircraft that get the most attention are the Spitfire and Lancaster.
These aircraft are symbols of freedom and long may they continue giving pleasure to the millions of people who love to see these aircraft fly. On Sunday they were the icing on the cake.
Mel Burley, Albion Avenue, York.
• I DO not know the age of Steve Cox, but it was because of these two fine aircraft we have the freedom of having the Tour de France in this country today.
Yes, it was 70 years ago and I was a young boy when the war ended, but I still get exited to see them.
W Poole, Falcon Close, Haxby, York.
• ON SUNDAY I stood in Bootham and like many people was amazed at TheTour de France.
One of the highlights was the fly past of the Spitfire and Lancaster bomber brilliant, showing respect for all the airmen from Elvington many who were the free French who took off night after night with not many returning.
So we could enjoy freedom and the events like le Tour. It was annoying to read the letter from Mr Cox, which shows no understanding or respect to the memory of the airmen who lost their lives during the war.
These planes are iconic and part of our history and the fly past was far from being misguided.
From the son of a Flying Fortress Bomber and nephew of a engineer shot down in a Lancaster over Germany.
Tony Wash, Windsor Drive, Wigginton, York.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to adopt a village in his constituency Varanasi under his prestigious 'MP model village scheme'. He will be adopting Jaipur village of Varanasi in order to remodel it as an ideal village while infusing it with the hi-tech infrastructure and modern facilities as well empowering the people there.
The security has been beefed up and the massive arrangements are underway as the PM will finally be visiting the village on Friday. The villagers feel happy over this action by the Prime Minster as they say what they dreamed for was just uninterrupted power supply and drinking water facility. The Prime Minister will also inaugurate a trauma centre at Hindu University when he arrives in his constituency.

Shirley Copland was Spindler's baby?
ahhhh, the good old days of apple......
Anyone think their complaints of apple nowadays is comparable to back in the mid 90's ?? We are lucky folks now !!
Very interesting article
Of note is that OpenDoc (which Apple distributed with later releases of MacOS as well) was not just an Apple project. It was worked on by many other vendors. IBM actually included it in OS/2, where several applications took advantage of its features.
The expectations about Copland were one of the reasons I was willing to switch to Mac Luckily OS 8 and 9 had enough Coplandy goodness to get me through until Rhapsody.

She continued to act and dance through her school years, making regular television appearances from the age of 10. She landed a recurring role in the kids' TV show "The Adventures of Pete & Pete" and starred in "Harriet the Spy", but it was her role as Buffy's sister Dawn from the fifth season of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" that really brought her to worldwide attention, and all before she was 18 years old.
