Touchscreen phone comparison Q3 - U.S. carriers
0. phoneArena posted on 25 Jul 2008, 08:43
There's no denying it, touchscreens are the latest trend in the mobile world and with the iPhone on the forefront of technology and fashion they show no sign of going away anytime soon. The iPhone was not the first phone to feature a touchscreen- they have been around since last century in fact- and it wasn't even the first fashion phone to ditch the keyboard; that distinction goes to the LG PRADA...
This is a discussion for a review. To read the whole review, click here

Until the other touchscreen phones get screens as responsive and sensitive as the iPhone, they will always be crap. iPhone has multi-touch and is very responsive and accurate. NONE of the other touchscreens are as comfortable with drag scrolling. If you have used the iPhone for a while you know what I'm talking about.

I had the Dare for one week, and really liked it ... i used an iPhone. The next day i stood in line and got mine. and haven't been happier. Everyone gets mad at the reviewers for comparing all the iclones, for the people who own an iclone (like I did) you probably disagree with the screen problems in the dare and vu. I watched all these reviews and thought there is no way this screen is really responsive. Its not, use an iPhone before you say that your phone is better. I said mine was better and now I have an iphone and see the glitches they are talking about. Some of the reviewers are apple fanboys, but chances are there is a reason for one, and they have used these phones and chances are you haven't.

I love how pissed off people get on here when someone disagrees with their opinion of a what phone is the best. Everyone complains about phoneareana being bias and then turn around and give their own bias opinions. I thinks thats the pot calling the kettle black and it just makes me laugh. If you are happy with your phone.....great...but why must most people on here insist that everyone should run out and get a certain phone because they like it. Everyone of these phones has it's advantages depending on what you want out of your phone. If you are big on iTunes, want the best mobile browser, and need the ability to sync with Outlook calenders and view email attachments then the iPhone is for you. If pictures and video are what you want then get a Dare. If you want the ability to watch live TV then get a VU. If you want Navigation or you are a big texter (like me) go with the Instinct. I must admit there are quite a few features that the iPhone lacks that the other three have but if you have no need for stereo Bluetooth, MMS, Video, no landscape QWERTY for texting, or PAM then these will not break the deal. The iPhone still has the best touch UI hands down as long as your are not wearing gloves. The one thing I think they should have added to the review is a break down of the plans each phone needs and what those plans include or exclude. I currently have the Instinct and with exception to the garbage web browser I have been very pleased with the phone. The only other phone I would consider using would be the Dare but until VZW allows me to add what I want to my phone that is not an option for me.

Just wait until the htc diamond and htc touch pro hit the shores at Sprint. Then we'll see. Iphone is having to many issues at this point. It sounds like they went the cheap route tosave money and it's showing.The diamond platform from htc will reign supreme.

Why is it that on every site including this one the user ratings have the dare higher than the iphone yet the iphone still kills the dare in this review? On phonescoop the Iphone isnt even a 3 out of 5.

thats because it sucks.....actually just the phone part, but that's an important part right?

btw, to those that just recently read the review, all the flaming is because the ORIGINAL review scores made the Iphone win. they changed it after the blatant fanboyism was called out.

thought phones were for making calls , doesnt score call quality???

I have to say, despite the fact that the Instinct is the supposed winner in this article, the sheer amount of praise (unwarranted or otherwise) slathered on the iPhone is what truly makes that device the winner in this article. I guess this comment is directed to those who proclaim that "the instinct won not the iphone." I guess these people lack basic reading comprehension skills; specifically, inferences and tones in documents and articles. yes, the instinct won in terms of raw score, but its the iphone that's doled with praise.

Why do I care about what any of you think about any of these phones? Isn't the most imptortant consideration (for me) which phone I like. One of you will say "They iPhone is the BEST!!!". For your needs and likes...it probably is the best. Why force your likes and needs on someone else? The Dare is not the best of these phones according to the comparison. For my needs and circumstances...such as network availability, it is the best choice for me.

I agree that the iphone is a revolutionary device, but I did notice that when it came to call quality they didn't really test these phones in areas other than bigger metro areas, I would have an iphone right now if it wasn't for att's crappy call quality and service and I live in san diego. I have never had a good signal from them and the amount of dropped calls was horrendous, I switchedto verizon after 4 years with att and cingular and have not had one issue with calls being dropped or not having any service with verizon. Not to bash the iphone but they should have compared it to other smart phones with touch screens since that is the category it is in. This is like comparing mac osx to windows 3.1. Sure would have loved however for verizon to have picked this up.

Here's some general info about the different plans (i.e. ongoing monthly costs). Sprint's Simply Everything (Unlimited Calls) seems the best so far...everything for $100. Verizon's "everything" plan for $140 has a couple of loop holes (one being limited voicemail--only 20 per month unless you are willing to pay more). ATT's plan is $130, no obvious hidden loop holes. Another interesting thing...if you pick a minute plan (450, 900, or 1350) with Verizon or ATT the "Unlimited Nights" are 9:00 PM - 6:00 AM. Sprint's "Unlimited Nights" are from 7:00 PM - 7:00 AM. With Sprint and it's "Unlimited Nights" range, you could almost pick their 900 minute plan for $10 less ($90) and do just as well.

there's no limited voicemail on the the verizon plan, way to lie your way through your sprint endorsement

I have never seeing together in one place so many inmature, fan-boys, haters, and idiots and stupids like each one of you call each other. The review was objective (any one of you know what this word means), technical, very extensive , complete and results all documented. The proof is in the fact that each phone fan-boy claimed it was unfair to their phone. HOW COME THIS REVIEW CAN BE AGAINST EACH PHONE AT THE **SAME TIME?** My only question is: what's wrong with Phone Arena that attracts this kind of crowd?
158. (unregistered)
first off, the only phones that were treated unfairly were the Dare and instinct...there's no one complaining about the I-phone and certainly no one complaining about the Vu this was a very technical, extensive review if you completely overlook battery life, call quality and service in multiple locations. These were all overlooked to give the I-phone the highest rating possible. Them when they get three pages of people calling them out, the review is changed and the instinct now wins...yeah, very efficient review if they can change results that easily to cover their asses I don't own any of these 4 touch phones and i could give a crap about owning one, but a biased review is a biased review
159. (unregistered)
When you own an iPhone or an Instinct, you will see what it's all about, omg... Dare and Vu are horrible phones, trust me.

Well if they would have given the i-phone all 5 u wouldent have said no phone is perfect So its all about how people feel about phones and I my self think that the iphone is wack so is at&t they have the worst plans make themself to be the best and there the worst i cant stand em.

PS: all of this is irrelevant because Sprint is launching the Touch Diamond in 2 weeks. And for all of you VZW fanboys out there, get over it, Sprint has exclusivity on this for at least 60 days, and the vzw version is stripped down. no g sesnor, half the ram, slower processor. Sprint wins, with a larger EVDO revA coverage area than vzw, and twice the options, that phone will be the best available. period.

i say all four phones are great phones. im on sprint and i dont want to switch so im getting the instinct. the review rated the iphone and instict pretty well, but i think they trashed the dare and VU a little too much. if i had to choose my fav out of the four it would be the instinct, but that might just be because its the only one i can get
164. sp3cialkw (unregistered)
I love this review/contest. I was having doubts about getting an instinct but now im sure. Yeah, there are much better phones coming out, but im only 18, i think i can wait 2 years to get a better phone. But i think it's funny that instinct dominated in this review when this site has sprint advertisements all over it.lol [im not suggetsing anything, just thoughtit was funny]

RE: Instinct: The Instinct is a fairly new phone yet it (and it's apps) have received a number of updates since it's release. One of the best is due out soon... a keyboard I/F to make it fully MIDP 2.0 compliant which will allow it to run the Opera browser and other JAVA apps not specifically built for the Instinct. (Most "in the know" Instinct owners are waiting for that Opera support!) The results of an app developer contest are due out soon. Outlook Web Access email support is built in already and OWA Calendar support is in the works. One other thing that might have been mentioned as a side note (not an actual phone feature) is the cost of data service to use all the great features of the phones. Sprint's Family Talk/Data Share plan makes it affordable for multi-phone families! BTW... Not knocking the other phones. Each has it's place depending on the user's needs and preferred network :-) B.J.

I got the instinct and it SUCKS!!! keeps freezing up so im trading it in for at ouch diamond tommorow!!

Did these iphone haters and iphone fanboys misread this article, so many people are saying its biased towards the iphone or that iphone won the reviews....I read the article thoroughly and Instinct is coming out as the winner of this review. Also I have handled each of the phones reviewed in this article and I find it to be a spot on analysis. Yes Iphone does look prettier but in terms of value Instinct delivers in all categories.

Its the Network! I can not afford an iffy network. Do I want a GSM Phone? Hell Ya! But its the Network! If you don't need a the Phone to work, then argue all you want. I hate Verizon. They are over priced and carry a lousy array of Crippled Phones, but its the network. I just want a camera phone. Is there a decent camera phone out there? Hell ya! just not on Verizon (3MP get real) and if it is not on Verizon I cant Afford it! (oh oh 3.2MP my hart is thumping, how about 7 or 10) For school kids and home bodies get T-moble or ATT or Metro or..., but if you NEED it to work. Its The Network. Please ATT catch up so I can jump ship. Europe is GSM they have ausome phones and camera phones that will all work on ATT but I need my Phone to work. so its a Dare or a u900 and god knows I will just crack the screen on a Dare with no Hard Protector cover, so what should i do. Cry my self to sleep and go buy a louse Flip Phone one more time. Dame this network.

Built on blood and ancient gold
Beating heart of immoral bold
So go! And find what you desire
In the shadow of the watchful fire.
Book One: An Adventure Long Overdue
Chapter 1
The island of Werithor lay far out in the Western Sea, weeks away from the sandy coastline which bordered Mossflower Country. Thick forests grew all over the island, covering the landscape in a lush patch of green. Sprouting out from the center of this rocky landmass was a dormant volcano. The mournful mountain towered solemnly over the expansive treeline. From afar, the island resembled a gem floating in the emerald waters; a shining example of rugged, natural beauty unseen, uncharted, and untouched by any creature.
However, this façade quickly faded upon closer inspection, for Werithor served as the headquarters for a vast corsair network responsible for generations of terror up and down Mossflower Country's western shores. Scores of well-concealed corsair villages were scattered deep within Werithor's vast forests, linked by the multiple rivers and streams which crisscrossed the interior of the island. Returning crews moored at the island's single port to resupply at these villages or to drop off their plunder for the reclusive rulers who employed them.
Security was the name of the game at Werithor. Guards diligently patrolled the shores at all hours. Incoming ships were routinely searched down to the last compartment. All residents on the island were subjected to strict curfews which, if disobeyed, meant instant death. The extremely secretive nature in which Werithor's rulers and corsairs conducted operations meant that Werithor had never appeared in any documents or maps. Its precise location had long been concealed from the rest of the world, and many a crew had perished to keep it that way.
Despite all the rules and regulations, there was never any cause for discontent among the corsairs, themselves further organized into ever-changing fleets and factions. Werithor's rulers always made sure that those who filled their quotas were handsomely paid in supplies as well as treasure – treasure usually brought back by the corsairs themselves. Therefore, if any talk of dissent or rebellion ever surfaced, the rulers of Werithor would always have an army of eager followers ready to silence the opposition.
Finally, Werithor's corsairs were not just numerous; they were experienced, professional killers who all knew each other. Captains expanded their fleets through alliance, and the underlings moved up through the ranks by proving themselves on expeditions. Even seasoned corsairs whose ancestors had served the island for generations would often be sent out on long voyages just to test their skill and wits. This kept the ranks clean of the undisciplined rabble that usually scoured the oceans. The ferocity and intelligence of Werithor's corsairs, whose ships were well-furnished and heavily armed with highly sophisticated weaponry, made them the de facto rulers of the high seas.
These were just a few reasons why Tenzir Bloodblade felt uneasy as he neared the island. Tall and broad-shouldered, with a patch over his left eye, the fire-furred fox was one of Werithor's finest, most ruthless captains. Other captains both feared and respected him. Younger corsairs wanted to be like him. But even a stoic veteran like Tenzir found it difficult to ignore the growing pit in his stomach as his battered fleet pulled into the harbor, nestled in a large bay on the island's east side.
The crew grew silent as a shadow cast itself over the ship, and they all stared up at the monolithic fortress looming over them, fear and awe in their eyes. Every single ruler of Werithor had resided here. Built from volcanic stone, which gave the structure a blackened tinge, the complex stood imposingly with its winding battlements, jagged walls, and somber towers, overlooking the harbor, where close to twenty ships were moored.
Somewhere, a large conch horn sounded, signaling that a ship had arrived in the harbor. From the deck of the Bloodblade, the imposing vessel which bore his name, Tenzir watched as a squad of a dozen blue-clad ratguards, fitted with glimmering steel helmets and breastplates emblazoned with the skull-and-trident, assembled the long rotting pier, spears at the ready.
"Rumskull," Tenzir spoke, not taking his eyes off the pier. His voice had a dull edge to it, like the blade of a rusty knife scraping painfully along stone.
The deck shook as a burly, overweight weasel hurried over to do his master's bidding. He was dressed in dirty, ragged trousers tied off at the ankles, and his unruly beard glistened with pan grease and fishbones from his last meal. He halted beside Tenzir and threw a salute, scattering barnacles from him as he did. "First mate Rumskull reportin' fer duty, Cap'n," he said in a strange voice that sounded like he only breathed helium.
"My cloak," Tenzir ordered.
"Aye, Cap'n," Rumskull said, grabbing a crewbeast who was passing by. "You 'eard the Cap'n!" he snarled. "Get 'im 'is cloak!"
The rattled underling scampered off to do Tenzir's proxy bidding, muttering something about suck-ups and sycophants. Normally, nobeast would put up with somebeast as obnoxious and sniveling as Rumskull, but the weasel possessed a pair of meaty paws the size and consistency of small boulders. Plus, he was Tenzir's brutal enforcer, and an order from Rumskull was as good as an order from Tenzir, who commanded complete respect from crew.
As Tenzir's crew moored the ship, the crewbeast Rumskull dispatched earlier returned with a deep-blue cloak, which Rumskull donned on his master. It was required that all corsairs wear blue on Werithor as a sign of loyalty. Though Tenzir detested the color (he preferred, of course, red), he knew he would need it for what he was about to do.
"All set, Cap'n," came Rumskull's voice. "Yore ready ter go."
Ignoring his lackey, Tenzir walked down the ramp his subordinates had laid out for him, adjusting the cloak to his needs. The stupid weasel's paws, he mused, were much better suited for smashing things.
The squad of ratguards standing on the deck greeted the fox with crossed spears.
"I'm here to see the Emperor," Tenzir rasped.
"Purpose?" the squad leader inquired.
"Urgent meeting," snapped Tenzir, neither wanting nor enjoying this conversation.
"After we search yore ship, Cap'n," the squad leader replied coolly. He then motioned to his compatriots to board the ship. Tenzir had no choice but to wait on the pier, tapping his footpaw nervously beneath his cloak as he stared up at the fortress. Not even he was exempt from the island's draconian security protocols.
After what seemed like an eternity, the squad emerged from the Bloodblade. "Ship is secure. All protocols 'ave been met," declared the squad leader. He turned to a pair of guards, who were now awaiting further orders. "Take Cap'n Tenzir up t' the fortress."
The two guards nodded wordlessly, escorting Tenzir inland. Following a long trip up a winding set of narrow stone stairs hidden in the cliffs, they reached the palace gates: two giant slabs of carved oak reinforced with steel bindings, on which was emblazoned the same skull-and-trident emblem found on the guards' uniforms. Tenzir's lips felt dry; the pit in his stomach never felt as deep as it did now.
The gates stood unguarded, but as the fox and his escorts neared the wall, there was a mechanical groan, and the gates swung inward by themselves.
Tenzir entered first, flanked by the two ratguards. All around him, on the high ramparts, guards stopped what they were doing to stare at the imposing captain and speculate at his sudden, unannounced arrival. They entered the palace, climbing several floors before they reached the top, where the throne room was located behind a set of doors, fitted with gilded knockers shaped like twin wildcat heads.
One of the escorts approached the foreboding doors that stood between Tenzir and the throne room. Reluctantly, he raised a paw to one of the knockers and knocked three times.
"Enter!" came a harsh voice from within.
The ratguard opened the door for Tenzir, mouthing "Good luck, Cap'n" before hastily retreating down the winding halls and stairs with his compatriot, leaving Tenzir on his own.
The throne room was large but bare, with a tall ceiling that amplified the sound of every step that Tenzir took. Polished marble tiles covered every square inch of the floor. Life-sized portraits of Werithor's past rulers, immaculately dressed and valiantly posed, hung on both of the side walls, flanking the of the raised throne, illuminated only by light coming through the window behind it.
Tenzir approached and got down on one knee – the traditional Werithese gesture of respect. "I have returned, my king," he said, with his head bowed.
"You know I don't take audiences at this time of day, Captain," the figure sitting on the throne said darkly, his voice carrying through the large hall. Tenzir kept his head bowed as Valroth, the ruler of Werithor, rose from his seat and descended the marble steps, meeting his subject at the bottom. He was old, evidenced by his graying whiskers and fur, but Valroth showed no signs of fading vitality otherwise. A powerful, muscular wildcat, Valroth stood a full head taller than Tenzir. The flowing blue cloak that he wore was bordered by tiny gems sewed into the lining. On the wildcat's head sat a glimmering crown studded with sapphires, emeralds, and other precious stones.
"Tell me, Tenzir," Valroth purred in smooth but foreboding voice that, like his body, still held the menacing imperiousness of his forefathers, "Why are you back so soon?"
"My lord, we made it as far as Salamandastron, in search of the escaped slave," confessed Tenzir.
Valroth folded his arms, his voice dangerously level. "And I'm guessing you didn't find him."
Tenzir seemed to wince, as if a painful blow had just struck him. "We were not even able to land our troops, my lord. They…they are building a navy…a fleet of ten ships. These ships are incomplete and not ready to sail, but they have already been fitted with weapons."
"A navy, you say?" Valroth inquired, deep in thought.
"They fired upon us, my lord." Tenzir said. "There were hares stationed on the ship and they fired upon us, sinking one of our ships. Scores of us were wounded. There was no way we could land."
"So you ran back here with your tails between your legs?" Valroth asked, his paw straying beneath his cloak toward the jeweled dagger at his waist.
This time, Tenzir looked up, and his eyes were blazing with fury. "No, my lord. I am requesting permission to launch an invasion of that mountain."
Valroth scoffed, his paw not leaving his weapon. "Why? So you can lead more of my corsairs to their deaths?"
"No, my lord," Tenzir replied, "If those hares are defending the mountain so vigorously, then the slave must be in the mountain, being cared for and fed by the Long Patrol while they extract every last drop of information on our island to him. They'll know where all these corsair attacks have been coming from, and once the Long Patrol has a navy, they'll be coming right for Werithor."
Valroth considered this for a moment, though he did not show it. Despite his failure, the fox had a point, and was probably onto something.
Tenzir must have picked up on the wildcat's thoughts, because he looked Valroth in the eye bravely. "I ask to lead an army against Salamandastron and finish what I started. With enough beasts and ships that island will fall. Werithor will remain safe, as it always has."
After a moment of crippling silence, Valroth spoke his verdict. "You'd better find that slave, fox, or your corpse will be thrown to the gulls. Now get out of my sight."
Tenzir bowed low. "I live only to serve Werithor!"
And then he was gone, leaving Valroth alone in the cavernous chamber. Worry plagued the wildcat's mind. The kingdom he had inherited long ago from his predecessor had been one of stagnation. Days passed slowly here. Nothing ever changed.
Nothing was supposed to.
The wildcat paced the floor of his quarters, stopping only to gaze at his reflection in the polished marble tiles. This couldn't be happening; not now.
For over sixty seasons Valroth had sat on Werithor's throne. The kingdom, ruled by a long line of wildcats, gained its prosperity plundering the settlements on the western coast of Mossflower Country, gathering up wealth in the form of gold and slaves. The corsairs did the dirty work. All the wildcats had to do was to organize the raids, maintain order, and keep their Captains in line.
"Is there a problem, O Exalted One?"
Valroth knew the voice. It was Nadira, his seer and advisor. The bent old vixen was the only creature the wildcat felt he could entrust his personal thoughts to. But Valroth, in his old age, had grown convinced of his own invulnerability. This, coupled with lust for gold, forced the wildcat into a brooding, solitary existence.
"Come out of the shadows where I can see you, vixen," Valroth commanded.
"I sensed that you were feeling worried, O Great One," Nadira said, slinking soundlessly across the tiles and into view. "You need not trouble yourself. Your corsairs have the matter all under control."
"This cannot be," Valroth growled, his blue robes tracing the floor as he started to pace again. "No slave has ever escaped the island."
"He could not have gone far, Your Highness," Nadira hissed. "Either the corsairs you have had patrolling the seas and islands will find him, or he will perish without ever laying eyes on land."
Valroth waved a meaty paw dismissively. "Enough with the titles, seer. He's gone, and I have to find him before the world finds out we exist. Why are you really here? I specifically issued orders not to be disturbed during this hour, so choose your next words carefully."
Nadira bowed low. "Your Majesty, I, and those before me, have lived to serve the line of Werithor," she said soothingly. After a pause, she continued. "Er…there is one problem though…"
"Spit it out, vixen," Valroth growled, "before I pull the words out of you myself."
"Through the casting of my shells and careful observation of the stars, I have predicted that this volcano – the symbol of your power – is about to erupt in precisely sixty days." Nadira announced. "Now, you have ample time to move your troops and treasure to a different island…"
Valroth's voice was dangerously low. "Are you threatening me, Nadira?"
Knowing better than to anger the dangerous wildcat, Nadira bowed low submissively. "I am merely suggesting, my lord, for your safety and for others – "
Valroth scowled. "Werithor is already going through enough change as it is. One of my slaves has escaped the compound and now this – "
"The volcano will erupt, Excellency," Nadira reasoned. "The shells do not lie."
"You and your shells," Valroth snarled venomously.
"Have you considered relocating to Thrune?" Nadira suggested, ignoring the aging wildcat.
"Why would I waste any time there?" Valroth asked, examining a claw yellowed with age.
"So you can conquer that old kingdom and complete the work of your forefathers," the vixen answered.
"I don't care about that wasteland!" Valroth spat, and his face was suddenly contorted with fury. "That place has nothing! My forefathers have robbed it dry, and as far as I'm concerned, their work is done." And then, he stalked back over to his throne – a tall chair carved out of the finest cherrywood – and sat down bad-temperedly. "I am without mate or heir. My only job is to keep this kingdom going, and I am not leaving this spot."
The wildcat leaned forward, hatred brimming in his wicked yellow eyes. "Do I make myself clear, fox?"
Nadira bowed low.
"Perfectly, Your Greatness."
And with that, she vanished out the door, like a wraith in the fog, once again leaving Valroth to stew in his own thoughts. Salamandastron. That word brought both fear and revulsion to Valroth's stomach. Salamandastron. That fortified volcano guarded by hundreds of fierce hares called the Long Patrol, led by the revered Badger Lords. Salamandastron. That annoyingly noble organization which patrolled the Western dunes and beaches, protecting the settlements from his corsairs. Salamandastron. The jeers and laughs of the enemy seemed to hang in the air whenever his fleets limped into the harbor from a failed raid, battered and broken.
Valroth's claws ground into the wood of his throne.
That's where the real prize was. No more raiding merchant ships and pithy desert villages. There was untold wealth in that mountain which stretched back to times much, much earlier than Werithor. If he could knock out those pesky hares, Valroth could build an empire stretching far into Mossflower Country.
The wildcat stood up, admiring the portraits of Werithor's past rulers. One day, Valroth would be up there with them, known across land and sea as the greatest ruler anybeast would ever know.
Daylight brought a clear sky above Werithor. Gulls screeched overhead, scavenging for their first meal of the day. Not a single cloud was visible for miles, and the sun shone brightly, bouncing off the gleaming waves.
Inside the fortress, however, was a different story.
Large conch horns had sounded the wake-up alarm, and the corsairs patrolling the island sprung awake and were scampering about their daily business.
In one of the corners of the sprawling palace grounds was a slave compound, which consisted of long, identical wooden cabins in which the slaves slept. There were no windows, and the single entrance to each one was guarded by a pair of thuggish slavedrivers.
It had been three weeks to the day since Tenzir Bloodblade left the island. Yet for these slaves, it could have been three seasons – three generations, even – and nobeast would have known the difference.
Ingle the ottermaid rubbed her eyes and yawned at the sound of the first horn. Blearily, she rolled out of bed, scratching at her body under her itchy clothing, which resembled at this point a ragged burlap sack than a tunic.
The slaves slept along the length of the longhouse, one row on either side. Breathing in the fetid air (there was no sanitation, though some thoughtful individual had scraped a hole in the ground in the far corner), the ottermaid shifted her body to the left, where her best friend, a mousemaid named Haida, slept.
"Haida," Ingle whispered firmly, rubbing her slumbering friend's body. "Haida, wake up."
The dangerously thin mousemaid sat up, groaning as she rubbed her eyes and mumbling, "Mmf, why y'gorra wake me up at dis 'ourr?"
Ingle smiled sympathetically. "Hurry," she whispered. "You don't want the guards catching you like this. C'mon. Chin up, full alert. Just like any other day." As she spoke, she patted her friend's cheek gently.
"Ugh, 'chin up, full alert,'" Haida groused as she shoved the ottermaid's paw away roughly, "Easy for you to say. You sweep floors and polish chairs in the palace. Some of us have to mine stone from the mountain, you know."
"I'm sorry," Ingle mumbled timidly, as the other slaves started to rise. "I just wanted to say good morning."
Haida mumbled something in response as the door burst open. The slaves squinted at the oppressive light. In the doorway stood a stoat and several ratguards who held the long slave shackles in their paws.
"Awright, you lot! Get on yer paws. Inspection formation, let's go!" yelled the stoat harshly. His name was Dirgetooth, possibly the most hated slave driver of them all. In the last week alone, two slaves had died from his abuse.
Dirgetooth turned the rats. "You three, get those shackles on those slaves, sharpish."
Ingle felt cold metal clamp down around her wrists and ankles. She tried to avoid eye contact with the rat who was applying the device. Unfortunately, she accidentally glanced at him.
"Wot're you lookin' at, streamdog?" the rat snarled, giving Ingle a venomous glare with his one functional eye.
Ingle said nothing and looked away, her cheeks burning and her heart beating fearfully inside her chest.
Dirgetooth cracked his whip to show everybeast who ran the show around here. "Right, then!" he began, as he paced around the room. "Same thing as usual! Ships need t' be fixed up! Our Cap'n's 'ave worked hard plunderin' an' raidin' so you lot could 'ave a proper job t' do! Hulls need resealin'! Interiors need paintin' over! New sails! New ropes! Those ships are ready t' sail by next dawn! I'll be watchin' you lot as you work, an' if I find so much as one paint chip come sunset…"
Dirgetooth paused his speech and leaned close to Haida, who winced as the slavedriver bared his crooked rotting teeth, "… then I'll flay ye alive with this whip!" he roared. He chuckled evilly as Haida kept her eyes glued to the ground, trembling slightly.
A shrewslave from the other side of the room named Jago had the nerve to speak. "Hey, leave her alone, you scumbag!" he cried valiantly.
Dirgetooth spun around, his whip at the ready. He was all too familiar with that voice: Jago was a fun creature to beat up because he never knew when to shut up. Walking over to Jago, who stared up at him defiantly, Dirgetooth pawed at his own ear. "I didn't quite hear you there, shrew," he said, a hint of venom under his voice. "Say that again, an' louder."
Jago scarcely had time to open his mouth as Dirgetooth landed a kick square to his snout. There was a collective yelp of surprise as the shrew fell back, pulling the chain and yanking several slaves down with him.
"You just cost this entire compound its one meal of th' day, ye miserable worm," Dirgetooth snarled, grinning evilly. Jago glared back, blood trickling out of the corner of his mouth and onto his frayed tunic. A concerted groan rose from the slaves.
The shrew spat out a tooth. "The minute you take these chains off, yore a deadbeast!" he growled.
Dirgetooth scoffed as the slaves he had knocked down extricated themselves from the tangle and got back on their footpaws. "Alright, alright, fun's over. You lot, wot are you laughin' at, eh? Get these beasts out of here!"
The rats started to escort the slaves outside. "Not you!" Dirgetooth growled, and Ingle knew who he was talking to. Every morning it seemed that the cruel slavemaster would forget that she was responsible for serving inside the fortress.
"Stop! Unchain that otterslave and bring her to the palace," Dirgetooth ordered.
Ingle glanced up at Haida as a rat unshackled her from her friend and led her away from the others, up toward the fortress.
"Have fun polishing suits of armor," Haida muttered, eyeing Ingle resentfully. The ottermaid said nothing. At that moment, she dearly wished she could be with her friend. Maybe then Haida wouldn't be so grouchy.
Any further thoughts the ottermaid may have had were dashed as the rat guarding her prodded her from behind with the butt of his spear. "C'mon, move yer lazy hide. We're not payin' yew ter daydream. Come ter think of it, wese ain't payin' yew at all!" ...

Both of the 'pommels' on these two are essentially the same but treated differently. The pommels here are the exact same poly cap but the top one is a female version with the black 'grip' section exposed. The bottom male one has the 'grip' section covered by some aluminium tube. The top one, I call the Sithulation, is made different by the addition of a plastic TV foot and me adding more grooves to the cap connecting to the foot (painted yellow).

But it's still not firedan, O.K. Crayig?
Anywho, happy to help out anytime!
And that's pretty cool that the other pommel is actually the female end, I'll have to revise my search and see if I can find it.
I've been meaning to ask, I may have over looked it, did you file the bottom of the 'Activation Box' on the older 'Male Pommel' lightsaber in order to fit it to the hose adapter piece that leads out of the handle and into the smaller bearing, or was that a ridiculously fabulous/fortunate find?
I salute the sabre maker Ridire Firean (in the hope thee won't chop off any of my bits with one of his sabres).
I did file down the window-frame 'activation box' as you say on the Faubi Wan for a closer fit. Crayig away....
Question for you saber pros......
Can you install a blade with a LED without destroying an original Luke 3 cell Graflex?
I have so many sabers to build, but my work area is outside and it's 200000 degrees.
HA! I'll just hold up to the California sun..
Hope this helps https://www.vado.com/products/showering
They should have just put "Also lightsaber parts" on the boxes!

In contemporary business and science a project is a collaborative enterprise, involving research or design, that is carefully planned to achieve a particular aim.
Project can also be defined as a set of interrelated tasks to be executed over a fixed period and within certain cost and other limitations.
Projects can be further defined as temporary rather than permanent social systems or work systems that are constituted by teams within or across organizations to accomplish particular tasks under time constraints. An ongoing project is usually called (or evolves into) a program.
The word project comes the Latin word projectum from the Latin verb proicere, "before an action" which in turn comes from pro-, which denotes precedence, something that comes before something else in time (paralleling the Greek πρό) and iacere, "to do". The word "project" thus actually originally meant "before an action".
When the English language initially adopted the word, it referred to a plan of something, not to the act of actually carrying this plan out. Something performed in accordance with a project became known as an "object".Every project has certain phases of development.
Musselroe Wind Farm is a wind farm at Cape Portland, Tasmania, Australia. It is third wind farm in the state, being owned and operated by Hydro Tasmania. It consists of 56 Vestas V90-3MW wind turbines, with a generating capacity of 168 MW. The energy output from the Musselroe Wind Farm will be sufficient to supply electricity to around 50,000 households and abate 450,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually.
The first 37 turbines have been connected to the grid in 2013, and the full farm was completed in January 2014.
Coordinates: 40°46′50″S 148°01′46″E / 40.78056°S 148.02944°E / -40.78056; 148.02944
Wind is the flow of gases on a large scale. On the surface of the Earth, wind consists of the bulk movement of air. In outer space, solar wind is the movement of gases or charged particles from the Sun through space, while planetary wind is the outgassing of light chemical elements from a planet's atmosphere into space. Winds are commonly classified by their spatial scale, their speed, the types of forces that cause them, the regions in which they occur, and their effect. The strongest observed winds on a planet in the Solar System occur on Neptune and Saturn. Winds have various aspects, an important one being its velocity; another the density of the gas involved; another is the energy content or wind energy of a wind.
In meteorology, winds are often referred to according to their strength, and the direction from which the wind is blowing. Short bursts of high speed wind are termed gusts. Strong winds of intermediate duration (around one minute) are termed squalls. Long-duration winds have various names associated with their average strength, such as breeze, gale, storm, and hurricane. Wind occurs on a range of scales, from thunderstorm flows lasting tens of minutes, to local breezes generated by heating of land surfaces and lasting a few hours, to global winds resulting from the difference in absorption of solar energy between the climate zones on Earth. The two main causes of large-scale atmospheric circulation are the differential heating between the equator and the poles, and the rotation of the planet (Coriolis effect). Within the tropics, thermal low circulations over terrain and high plateaus can drive monsoon circulations. In coastal areas the sea breeze/land breeze cycle can define local winds; in areas that have variable terrain, mountain and valley breezes can dominate local winds.

The Florida SouthWestern State College athletic program is a member of the Florida College System Athletic Association (FCSAA) and the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA). The Buccaneers are one of 25 schools in the NJCAA Region 8 and are one of six schools in the Suncoast Conference. Florida SouthWestern State College currently supports four intercollegiate athletic programs (Baseball, Softball, Men's Basketball, Women's Basketball), with Volleyball coming in the fall of 2017.
Baseball and Softball began their regular season competition in 2016 at the City of Palms Park in Fort Myers. Located on the Thomas Edison (Lee) Campus in Fort Myers will be the brand new Suncoast Credit Union Arena (completed in fall 2016), where FSW's men's and women's basketball and volleyball teams will compete.
The movement to form a unique sports association dedicated to America's two-year colleges arose in 1937 when several track and field coaches gathered in Fresno, California. A year later, the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) rejected a petition from 13 two-year colleges in California to grant their teams and athletes permission to compete at the NCAA Track & Field Championships.
In the spring of 1938, following the NCAA's rejection, those same 13 two-year colleges gathered again in Fresno to organize and form an association that would promote and supervise a national athletics program exclusively for junior and community colleges…and the rest is history.
On May 14, 1938, the first constitution of the National Junior College Athletic Association was accepted by its charter members and the organization held its first national championship event a year later in May 1939.
The NJCAA has played a vital role in collegiate athletics for the past eight decades and continues to be the leader in championing academic and athletic opportunities for student-athletes. This section of the association's website is dedicated to celebrating the NJCAA's rich history and tradition as the national governing body of two-year college athletics.
For more information on the NJCAA log on to www.NJCAA.org.
The Florida College System Activities Association, Incorporated (FCSAA) is a statewide non‑profit corporation regulating, coordinating, and promoting intercollegiate activities in: Athletics, Brain Bowl, Forensics, Music, Student Government, Student Publications, and Theatre.
Membership in the Florida College System Activities Association is open to any of the 28 colleges in the Florida College System. Each member institution is represented in the policy‑making deliberations of the Association through that institution's President or other designated representative. The institutional representatives constitute the FCSAA Presidents Assembly, the ultimate authority in FCSAA.
For more information on the FCSAA log on to www.TheFCSAA.com.
Member colleges of the NJCAA are allotted to a specific NJCAA Region upon membership to the association. Unlike other collegiate organizations that defer to conference affiliation, the NJCAA guarantees each member college's membership within the regional structure of the association. In most cases, region assignment is based upon geographic location of the college.
The region structure of the NJCAA is the primary method used by all sponsored sports of the association in determining qualification for national championship tournaments. In certain sports, two or more regions are partnered to form a competition 'district', which is then used for national championship qualification. The organization of districts varies per sport and is formulated every two years under the authority of the association's board of directors.
FSW is in Region 8 and is joined by ASA College Miami (Region 8 only; non-FCSAA member), Broward College, Chipola College, College of Central Florida, Daytona State College, Eastern Florida State College, Florida State College at Jacksonville, Gulf Coast State College, Hillsborough Community College, Indian River State College, Lake-Sumter State College, Miami Dade College, Northwest Florida State College, Palm Beach State College, Pasco-Hernando State College, Pensacola State College, Polk State College, Santa Fe College, Seminole State College of Florida, South Florida State College, St. Johns River State College, St. Petersburg College, State College of Florida Manatee-Sarasota and Tallahassee Community College.
The Bucs are also in the Suncoast Conference with Hillsborough Community College, Polk State College, South Florida State College, St. Petersburg College and State College of Florida Manatee-Sarasota.
The women's basketball program is Southern Conference with Broward College, Eastern Florida State College, Indian River State College, Miami Dade College and Palm Beach State College.

The Clock Tower
Cartagena's most famous landmark, The Torre del Reloj, or Clock Tower, was once the main gateway to the walled city. It was originally called Boca del Puente (The Mouth of the Bridge) linking Getsemani to the Old City via a drawbridge over a moat.
Construction on the tower begun in 1601, and in 1631 the tower became the principal door to the city as the fortifications around the city were completed.
In 1697 the tower was partially destroyed by the baron of Pointis, and then repaired in 1704, and it was also given a baroque facade and four tuscan arches.
The tower was built with a weapons room and a chapel inside, but these were replaced with a United States pendulum clock in 1874, and 63 years later was updated with a Swiss clock, which still exists today.
In 1888 the restoration was completed at the expense of architect Luis Philip Jaspe Franco, who gave the tower a gothic style with eight sides to show four faces of the clock.

Release #:14-60

ARB fines manufacturer of indoor air purifiers $120,000 for violations of air quality regulations
SACRAMENTO - The Air Resources Board has fined Envion LLC $120,000 for air quality violations relating to two indoor air cleaner models manufactured and sold by the company.
An investigation by the ARB showed that the Sherman Oaks-based company manufactured, sold, supplied and offered for sale in California indoor air cleaners that did not comply with the state's 'Regulation for Limiting Ozone Emissions from Indoor Air Cleaning Devices.' These models — an air purifier for the home, Ionic Pro Turbo, and a vehicle air purifier, Ionic Pro Car Ionizer — were sold in California from October 2010 to November 2012.
ARB requires that air cleaner products be certified because of their potential to exceed the health-based ozone emission limit set for them. Ozone is a well-documented air pollutant that can be harmful to public health and individual users. In addition, any indoor air cleaning device not certified by ARB that is advertised or sold via the Internet must display an advisory stating that the product "Does not meet California requirements; cannot be shipped to California."
"When purchasing air cleaners in California, consumers can look for an 'ARB certified' label," ARB Enforcement Chief Jim Ryden said. "This label informs consumers that the product meets California's air quality requirements and can be sold in the state. Our underlying goal is to protect public health."
The settlement agreement, signed by ARB and Envion this spring, indicates that Envion will pay $120,000 into the California Air Pollution Control Fund, which provides funding for projects and research to improve California's air quality.
Envion cooperated fully with the investigation. Envion took the required steps to obtain certification and both models were certified. The company also has taken steps to ensure future compliance with California regulations.

*INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: Our best tip for ordering, if you can, is to order several bottles or more at at time, to save more on shipping!
Detoxy+ is created by adding an oxygen molecule to magnesium—through the non-toxic process called ozonation—forming a compound called magnesium oxide. When you take the capsule, it dissolves and releases monatomic, or nascent, oxygen over a six to twelve hour period or more, throughout the entire digestive system.
The magnesium acts as a transporter of the oxygen throughout the entire body and has the gentle effect of loosening toxins and acidic waste in your colon, helping transport them out of the body via elimination. Oxygen, delivered in this way, supports the growth of friendly bacteria, which is essential for proper digestive and intestinal health.
Detoxy+ is safe for regular use and is non habit-forming. It can be helpful for anyone looking to increase their elimination and regularity, increase detoxification, reduce bloating or gas, and just feel lighter and healthier overall.

Obama Schooled Steph Curry in Connect Four and Gave Him Some Shooting Tips
They also built a paper maché volcano for a mentoring PSA.
The president paired up with Steph Curry for a mentoring PSA promoting My Brother's Keeper—Obama's initiative to connect young people with mentors in their community.
Mentors can help with things like resume writing. So Obama looked at Steph's CV and recommended that he get rid of the basketball clip art and remove the claim that he's an "incredible dancer."
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
After that, the two built a paper maché volcano, the president beat Steph at Connect Four, and worked on Steph's shooting form. It's truly heartwarming to see the president take an interest in this young man. I have a feeling he'll go on to do great things.

| Mother of Universal Charity
|October 15, 1701, Varennes, Quebec
|December 23, 1771
|Venerated in
|Roman Catholic Church
|1959 by Pope John XXIII
|December 9, 1990, Vatican Basilica by Pope John Paul II
|October 16
|widows, difficult marriages
Saint Marguerite d'Youville (October 15, 1701 – December 23, 1771) was a French Canadian widow who founded the religious order the Order of Sisters of Charity of Montreal, commonly known as the Grey Nuns of Montreal. She was canonized by Pope John-Paul II of the Roman Catholic Church in 1990.
Early life and marriage
She was born Marie-Marguerite Dufrost de Lajemmerais in 1701 at Varennes, Quebec, eldest daughter of Christophe du Frost, Sieur de la Gesmerays (1661-1708) and Marie-Renée Gaulthier de Varennes. (Pursuant to Quebec naming conventions, she would have always been known as Marguerite, not Marie.) Her father died when she was a young girl; despite her family's poverty, at age 11 she was able to attend the Ursuline convent in Quebec City for two years before returning home to teach her younger brothers and sisters. Marguerite's impending marriage to a scion of Varennes society was foiled by her mother's marriage below her class to Timothy Sullivan, an Irish doctor who was seen by the townspeople as a disreputable foreigner.[1] On 12 August 1722 at Notre-Dame Basilica in Montreal, she married François d'Youville, a bootlegger who sold liquor illegally to Indians in exchange for furs and who frequently left home for long periods to parts unknown. Despite this, the couple eventually had six children before François died in 1730.[1] By age 30 she had suffered the loss of her father, husband and four of her six children. Marguerite experienced a religious renewal during and after her marriage; in the words of her Vatican biography:
|In all these sufferings Marguerite grew in her belief of God's presence in her life and of His tender love for every human person. She, in turn, wanted to make known His compassionate love to all. She undertook many charitable works with complete trust in God, who she loved as a Father.[2]
Religious life
With her two surviving sons already in the priesthood, Marguerite and three other women founded in 1737 a religious association to provide a home for the poor in Montreal. At first the home only housed four or five members, but it grew as the women raised funds. As their actions went against the social conventions of the day, d'Youville and her colleagues were mocked by their friends and relatives and even by the poor they helped.[1] Some called them "les grises", which can mean "the grey women" but which also means "the drunken women",[3] in reference to d'Youville's late husband. By 1744 the association had become a religious order with a rule and a formal community. They were in 1747 granted a charter to operate the General Hospital of Montreal, which by that time was in ruins and heavily in debt. d'Youville and her fellow workers brought the hospital back into financial security,[4] but the hospital was destroyed by fire in 1765[2]. The order rebuilt the hospital soon after. By this time, the order was commonly known as the "Grey Nuns of Montreal" after the nickname given to the nuns in ridicule years earlier.[1] Years later, as the order expanded to other cities, the order became known simply as the "Grey Nuns".
Marguerite d'Youville died in 1771 at the General Hospital. In 1959, she was beatified by Pope John XXIII, who called her "Mother of Universal Charity", and was canonized in 1990 by Pope John Paul II. She is the first native-born Canadian to be elevated to sainthood by the Roman Catholic Church. Her feast day is October 16.[1]
A large number of Roman Catholic churches, schools, women's shelters, charity shops, and other institutions in Canada and worldwide are named after St. Marguerite d'Youville.

New project coming up: together with my friends and colleagues with whom I followed the course 'Visual Reporter' we are preparing a comic book about the frontiers of Limburg province. This book will be telling the stories of the ever changing borders of this most southern Dutch province, which is incorporated in personal union with the Kingdom of the Netherlands only since 1867 (Treaty of London). Mind you: 150 years ago!
Participating in this project: Gady Mirtenbaum, Berend Vonk, Jean Gouders, Marco Jeurissen and me. We hope to publish Grenzenloos at the end of this anniversary year.

The annual maize output is around 677 million tonnes. The main producer is the USA, which produces around 41 per cent of this. The quantity of maize produced in the EU, consisting of 189 million tonnes of green and silage maize and 53 million tonnes of grain maize, is sufficient to meet the EU's own requirements (without the accession countries).
Maize was first cultivated several thousand years ago and there are now more than 3000 cultivated species. Over time several main species have emerged, however, which differ mainly in the properties of the maize kernels. Flint maize has a hard kernel with a round shape. This species was discovered by Columbus in Central America and was also widespread in the Caribbean at this time. From there, the flint maize found its way to Europe, Asia and Africa. Another maize species besides flint maize is dent maize, which is characterised by a soft, floury endosperm between the hard, horny outsides of the grain. This maize species, as well as hybrid varieties produced from flint maize and dent maize, play the most important role in the economy today. Popcorn is a variant of flint maize. Popcorn was cultivated by the American Indians, making it one of the oldest cultivated maize varieties. Today maize is also cultivated and optimised using genetic engineering. Genetically modified maize varieties can be found mainly in the USA, Argentina and Canada.
Around 70 per cent of maize cultivated in Germany is used in animal feed. The remaining 30 per cent is processed further in the food industry to create various products. The most well-known and most important are grain maize, where the maize kernels are separated from the maize cob (preserves), corn starch (cornflour), glucose syrup, maize germ oil, cornflakes, popcorn, polenta, puffed maize snacks and maize paper (including cigarette paper).
The largest quantities of maize are processed and consumed in the USA (around 32% of world output), followed by China (20%), Brazil (5.8%) and Mexico (3.9%). Only a very small proportion of the maize output is traded on the international markets, since the largest proportion of the maize produced is consumed directly in the country of origin. Maize is exported primarily to Latin America and Africa. The Middle East and Asia are also important importers of maize. In Asia the primary importers are Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.
The most important trading venues for maize are the Chicago Board of Trade, the Bolsa de Mercadorias & Futuros, the Marche a Terme International de France, the Budapest Commodity Exchange, the Kanmon Commodity Exchange and the Tokyo Grain Exchange.

After the disappointing item number Mera Naam Mary and the melodious and soulful Sapna Jahaan, the much-awaited anthem from the action-drama flick 'Brothers' is out and it doesn't disappoint! Rather, it is a power-packed and enthusiastic track that would get your adrenaline pumping!
And it's not just the desi-styled anthem, composed Ajay-Atul and sung by Vishal Dadlani, that works but also the brilliant video that shows the two hotties of B-town Akshay Kumar and Siddharth Malhotra sweating it out with rigorous training to outdo each other in the MMA competition!
Yes, this video proves why Akshay Kumar is undoubtedly the Khiladi of Bollywood, his fitness and his dedication for workouts is very much visible! On the other hand, Sidharth Malhotra too, who has been proving his mettle by experimenting with his roles, looks great and promising enough to give a tough competition to Akki in the movie.
The song is surely worth including in your workout playlist. And inspires you to work hard and stay fit!

Technical spec. Edit
The vehicle reffered to as the "Lobster Cage Car" was originally Pappagallo's Lone Wolf Machine from Mad Max 2. The name "Lobster Cage" comes from an article in STARLOG #95, June, 1985[1] where the vehicle in question was referred to as the "Lobster Pot" and described a refurbished Mad Max 2 vehicle among Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome vehicles on the set.After the filming of Mad Max 2, the vehicle was displayed at the "Village Grand Prix" go-cart place at Blacktown in Sydney's west.[2] It was the re-aquired by the production company and modified to make it look similar to other vehicles in the movie.
The modifications mainly include a closed, round canopy which looked similar to a lobster pot, fenders, an air filter for the engine, additional piping and methane tanks and also the removal of the hot-rod style scoop on the rear engine.
Appearances on screen Edit
The vehicle was specifically designed to be put in deep background of the chase scenes and very briefly in a couple of Bartertown destruction shots. It is next to impossible to find this vehicle among the armada of Auntie's vehicles and for a good reason - George Miller did not want to display this car in full glory because it would remind the viewers of Mad Max 2.
Appearances off screen Edit
The vehicle survived filming intact and was later displayed at the Sydney Motor Show in 1985[3] among other Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome vehicles. Shortly after it was put in the storage for nine years until it was ordered to be destroyed in 1994 at the Simsmetal's St Marys facility in western Sydney.[4]
