A 27-year-old Wisconsin native is one of dozen injured during a shooting early Friday morning at a suburban Denver moving theater. According to WTMJ-TV, Carey Rottman, 27, was shot in the leg. Rottman's father tells the station his son is expected to be okay. Rottman attended Homestead High School in Mequon, Wis.
The suspect apprehended in the mass shooting at a suburban Denver movie theater has been identified as James Eagan Holmes, 24, law enforcement sources told CBS News correspondent Bob Orr.
Twelve people died in the shooting at a showing of the new Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora, Colo., early Friday morning. A law enforcement source told Orr the shooting appears to have been carried out by a lone gunman.
One federal official told CBS News that at this time Holmes appears to have been "under the radar." CBS News reports Holmes doesn't appear to have a criminal record in Colorado or in San Diego, Calif., where he graduated from high school. Pentagon officials said there is no record of Holmes having served in any branch of the military.
According to the University of Colorado, Denver, Holmes was in the process of dropping out of the school's graduate program in neurosciences. School spokeswoman Jacque Montgomery said in a statement that Holmes enrolled at the school in June 2011. She didn't say why he was withdrawing.
The University of California, Riverside, confirmed to CBS News that Holmes graduated in 2010 with a degree in neuroscience.
There was no immediate word of any motive for the attack. Federal law enforcement officials were briefed on the attack, but at this point there is no indication it is terrorism-related, CBS News senior correspondent John Miller reports.
Police evacuated the area surrounding Holmes' Denver-area apartment, saying the residence was apparently booby-trapped. A law enforcement source told Orr that police saw what looked like "buckets of extra ammunition" and some kind of chemical inside his home.
Aurora Police chief Dan Oates said it could take hours or days to safely enter the apartment.
Police recovered four guns at the theater, including two pistols, a shotgun and what is believed to be an assault rifle, Orr reports. Authorities also recovered a ballistic helmet and a gas mask.
The Century 16 movie theater is located next to the Town Center in Aurora, near I-225 and Alameda.

After 20 long years of waiting, one of the greatest sitcoms in television history is finally coming to DVD. Get a Life, starring Chris Elliott ran for only two seasons from 1990-1992, but it was way ahead of its time. Long before South Park was killing Kenny in every episode, Get a Life killed and resurrected Chris on numerous occasions.
If you've never seen or even heard of Get a Life, know that the show's influence on the cultural landscape runs deep. Perhaps you've heard of Dan The Automator and Prince Paul's collaborative effort Handsome Boy Modeling School. They did the song "Holy Calamity" that you probably heard on Tony Hawk's Underground 2 or on the soundtrack for Slackers.

The Archaeological Conservancy, Charity of the Day
Filed under: Charity of the Day
I mentioned the Nature Conservancy earlier this month but a lesser known conservancy is the Archaeological Conservancy. The Archaeological Conservancy is a non-profit organization which is dedicated to acquiring and preserving our nation's remaining archaeological sites. Many sites in the U.S. which contain prehistoric and historic remains have been destroyed by both looters and urban development. By owning these sites the Archaeological Conservancy is safeguarding the history of North America and preserving them for posterity. Since its beginning in 1980, the Conservancy has acquired more than 325 endangered sites in 39 states across America. The types of sites range from the earliest habitation sites in North America to a 19th-century frontier army post.
For a contribution of just $18 dollars you get their quarterly magazine, American Archaeology and you can send a gift membership to someone else. They also offer various archaeological tours. Their next one is planned for March 13-23, 2008 in Guadalajara, Mexico and costs $2,695.

A Saginaw Valley State University spokesperson says police detained eight students after a brawl broke out during a high school basketball game between Arthur Hill and Saginaw High Saturday night.
NBC25 cameras were rolling as police tried to break up the brawl.
This is the second time in less than a month that a fight broke out in the crowd during a boys' basketball game between these teams.
Head Coach Lou Dawkins says he hopes folks don't judge the schools by this incident. He says the people starting these fights aren't even students.
Three students were suspended after the fight January 5th. Two others who were not students were arrested.
No one was arrested after Saturday night's fight, but of the eight detained only one is known to be a Saginaw Public Schools student at this time.
No word yet on whether anyone involved will face criminal charges.
Authorities say fortunately no one was injured.

Attempts of Flight, Automatic Machines, Submarines and Rocket Technology in Turkish History
This short article is taken from the full article (by Prof. Arslan Terzioglu) which is available here as 15 page PDF file.
In the Islamic world, great importance was placed upon the study of natural sciences and technology. It is known that as early as during the reign of Harun al-Rashid, a water clock was built in the Islamic world. As told by Einhard who wrote the life of Charlemagne, Harun al-Rashid sent a water clock to Emperor Charles as a gift.
In the Abbasid period, Muslim scholars of Turkish, Persian and Arab origins created quite interesting works in the fields of mathematics and astronomy. It is accepted even by the Europeans that al-Bîrûnî, the Muslim scholar, (973-1051) had argued that the world revolved around its axis 500 years before Copernicus. It is certain that Islamic scholars influenced Europeans in the fields of mathematics, astronomy, and philosophy.
During the era of the Artuqs, one of the small Turkic states that appeared after the Great Seljuk Empire collapsed, technical works were built. Upon the encouragement of Malik us-Salih Nasruddin Abu al-Fath Mahmud b. Kara Arslan b. Davud b. Sokman b. Artuq (1200-1222), the Artuq emperor who reigned in Diyarbakir, Bedi' al-Zaman Ebu'1-Izz Ibn Ismail Ibn al-Razzaz al-Jazarî wrote a book with the title Kitâb al-Jâmi' bayn al-ilm wa'l-amal al-nafî' fî sinaat al-hiyal which mentioned several automatic machines, water clocks, water pumps, water levels, and musical instruments, with construction drawings.
Al-Jazarî worked for 32 years in the Artuqlu palace as the head engineer (Reis'ul-Amal) between 570 (1174) and 602 (1206). Al-Jazarî states that he had studied the books and works of scholars preceding him, but finally he had freed himself from their influences and solved the problems through his own point of view. He underlined the importance of the work, saying: "This book contains some tears that have been patched, some methods that have been classified and some sketches that have been discovered. I do not believe there exists another similar work". In his work, which consists of six chapters, al-Jazarî discloses his discoveries concerning important technical issues such as water clocks, water clocks with oil lamps, the constructions of pots and pans for wine making, the construction of ewers and bowls for use as cups, the sketches of pools and fountains and music automatons, and the sketches of devices able to elevate water from shallow wells or flowing rivers.
It is seen that the technical and natural sciences were encouraged and flourished not only during the Artuqs, but also in the other Seljuk beyliks, and in Syria and Egypt later on during the Mamluke sultans. Especially during the first Crusades, there was an obligation for Islamic scholars to work on the discovery of gunpowder and explosive weapons as early as the twelfth century, in order for the Turkic-Islamic world to succeed against the Christian armies.
Syria (and particularly Damascus) was a major centre of the sciences in the thirteenth century with the madrasas and hospitals built by Turkic Atabegs. It was very natural for Muslim scholars to manufacture gunpowder and build explosive weapons in Syria as it witnessed many gory battles during the Crusades. Islamic scholars in the thirteenth century had technical information sufficient to use gunpowder for rockets.
In the books "Kitap al-furusiya val-muhasab al-harbiya" and "Niyahat al-su'ul val-ummiya fi ta'allum a'mal al-furusiya" written by the Islamic scholar Hasan ar-Rammah Najm al-Din al-Ahdab in the thirteenth century, explosive materials, firearms, and, for the first time, torpedoes driven by a rocket system were mentioned. In this work on battle techniques written around 1275 by Hasan ar-Rammah, the illustrations of a torpedo running with a rocket system filled with explosive materials and having three firing points can also be found.
Another book on arms and military in the Topkapi Palace is a very valuable document copied in the fourteenth century that consists of three different works. The first section is called Kitab anîq fi'1-manajniq and written in 775 for Ibn Aranbugha Al-Zardkâsh, the Ayyubid commander or for Mingili Boga al-Shimmin. According to more recent research, the author is not known. The second section is the book called Kitab al-hiyal fi'l-hurub ve fath almada'in hifz al-durub, on rockets, bombs and burning arrows, written by the Turkish commander Alaaddin Tayboga al-Omari al-Saki al-Meliki al-Nasir.
Leonardo da Vinci is often mentioned as the first inventor of the dark box (a primitive version of a camera [Camera obscura]), water pump, flywheel, and flying machines. However, it is known that Leonardo da Vinci was under the influence of Islamic scholars, and he was particularly inspired by the work of al-Hazen. We have to remind here that a hand-written copy of the technical work of Ahmed b. Musa, the Islamic engineer, is still in the Vatican Library.
Furthermore, in the Turkic-Islamic cultural world, the first attempts at flight are seen long before the European Christian world. A Turkish scholar of Sayram (Ispidjap) had researched the relationship between the wing surfaces of birds and their weights, to find the physical causes for flight. This work set new horizons in the field of aerodynamics.
The most interesting of the flight attempts in the Turkish-Islam cultural circles were those of Hazarfan Ahmed Celebi and Lagarî Hasan Celebi in 1630-1632 during the reign of Sultan Murad IV. Evliya Celebi, who personally witnessed these flight attempts, gave the following information in his travel book, the hand-written copies of which can be found in the Libraries of Istanbul:
"Hazarfan Ahmed Celebi: First he practiced by flying over the pulpit of Okmeydani eight or nine times with eagle winds, using the force of the wind. Then, as Sultan Murad Han was watching from the Sinan Pasha mansion at Sarayburnu, he flew from the very top of the Galata Tower and landed in the Dogancilar Square in Uskudar, with the help of the south-west wind. Then Murad Khan granted him a sack of golden coins, and said:
Hezarfen Ahmed Celebi, who opened a new era in the history of aviation, being sent to Algeria on exile, and Lagarî Hasan Celebi not receiving enough attention, and his departure to Crimea later on, do answer the question of why the development in this field did not continue.
The Turkish engineer Lagarî Hasan Celebi, flying with a seven-winged rocket of his own invention and then landing safely on the sea with eagle-like wings, is very similar to the sea-landing methods of Americans, with parachutes after their voyages into space. Therefore, Lagarî Hasan Celebi deserves a special place in the history of aviation, with his flight attempt, which opened new horizons in rocketry techniques. Lagarî Hasan Celebi made his flight attempt with a rocket-like vehicle; the Ottoman Empire was going through its last bright era under Sultan Murad IV.
In the work called Ummul-Gaza, written by Ali Aga, the second caliph of the Bombardiers class in the reign of Sultan Ahmed III (1703-1730), which is in the Topkapi Palace currently; the rockets called tulumbas invented by himself and used for castle sieges in the seventeenth century were described. These are illustrated to be 11-12 arsin (7-8 m) long and the diameter was difficult for one person to encircle. In this work, Ali Aga relates the failures of the battles to the recession in inventing and developing arms and recommends to the sultan that new arms be developed. Thus, it is seen that the developments and new discoveries in the Turkic-Islamic world in this field came to an end.
The Islamic renaissance, which began in the ninth and tenth centuries, brought about major advances in the technical field and as early as the ninth century the first attempts at flight had begun in Turkistan and Andalusia. It is understood from the works of Hasan ar-Rammah and Aladdin Tayboga al-Umari as-Saki and other works the copies of which are in our libraries, which during the Seljuk and Mamluk era, rocket driven torpedoes and rockets were developed. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, the Turkish engineer Lagarî Hasan Celebi's flight in Istanbul is very similar to the sea-landing methods of Americans, with parachutes, after their space trials. Evliya Celebi mentioning that Lagarî Hasan Celebi went to the Crimea after this trial, to Selamet Giray Khan, and the first Russian rocket technology studies in Ukraine coinciding with just after Lagarî Hasan Celebi's residence in Crimea and his death, support the opinion that studies in the field of Russian rocket technology could have been influenced by the Turkish engineer Lagarî Hasan Celebi and his students.

Rangers prospect Grimm debuts against Astros
"I just tried to keep a straight face because my teammates were all like, 'What just went on in there?'" Grimm said.
After Washington declared Grimm the starter for Saturday, Grimm talked to his family, packed his stuff and prepared to head south to Arlington. He'll make his Major League debut against the Astros in front of a likely sellout crowd at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.
Grimm, a right-hander, said getting called up this season was always in the back of his mind.
"If it's not, you shouldn't be playing," Grimm said.
He takes over for Alexi Ogando in the rotation. Ogando, who originally replaced Derek Holland in the rotation, is on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right groin suffered Sunday.
The Rangers will likely purchase Grimm's contract from Frisco on Saturday. At Double-A, he was 8-3 with a 1.87 ERA and 67 strikeouts. His ERA is the 11th-lowest in all of the Minors.
A fifth-round selection in the 2010 First-Year Player Draft, Grimm will wear No. 51. Washington said the Rangers won't burden Grimm mentally heading into his first start.
"He's here because we believe he can handle the situation," Washington said.
The Astros counter with Lucas Harrell, a pitcher considered a rookie even though he pitched in the Majors in 2010 and '11. With 76 1/3 innings, he ranks first in the National League in innings among rookies and second in the Majors, behind the A's Tommy Milone.
Against the White Sox -- his former club -- on Sunday, Harrell went 7 1/3 innings, giving up five runs on six hits. He has thrown more than five innings in his last 11 starts.
"I gave up a few hits in situations, but we had the lead and I controlled the damage and the guys scored enough runs for us to win," Harrell said.
Harrell relies on the ground ball for outs. His ground-ball/fly-ball ratio is 2.39, the sixth-highest in the Majors.
Luck has been on Harrell's side recently. His ERA in his last five starts is 5.46, but he is 4-1 over that span.
Rangers: Hamilton likely to sit out series
Center fielder Josh Hamilton sat out Friday's game after being hospitalized with an intestinal virus on Friday morning.
Manager Ron Washington doesn't expect Hamilton to play Saturday, either. Hamilton's status for Sunday is questionable, though Washington doubts Hamilton can be fully healthy in time for the matinee series finale.
Hamilton left Thursday's game against the D-backs after complaining of a stomach ache. Hamilton's wife and daughters have both been sick recently.
The Rangers brought Leonys Martin up from Triple-A Round Rock to play center field. He batted ninth and went 0-for-3 with a walk on Friday. To clear space for Martin, the Rangers sent pitcher Koji Uehara to the disabled list with a strained right lat muscle.
To activate Grimm, the Rangers will need to make another roster move.
Hamilton is hitting .330 with 22 homers, 66 RBIs and a .674 slugging percentage.
Astros: Norris unlikely to start Sunday
Bud Norris, who sprained his left knee in his last start on Tuesday against the Giants, probably won't pitch on Sunday, his scheduled slot in the rotation.
Manager Brad Mills said the Astros will wait to see if Norris' condition improves on Saturday.
"We're hoping things turn for the better and we're able to work things out," Norris said. "Obviously, we need to make that decision here pretty quickly, and we will [Saturday] at some point."
Mills said Norris, who won't comment on the injury, felt a little tentative on the knee in a bullpen session on Thursday in San Francisco.
The Astros list Sunday's starter as TBA.
Worth noting
There are standing-room tickets available for Saturday's game and 1,000 reserved seats available for Sunday's game. Once Sunday's reserved tickets are sold, the Rangers will put obstructed view and standing-room tickets up for sale.
Astros shortstop Jed Lowrie walked in the first inning to end the Rangers' six-game streak of three-up, three-down first innings.
Hamilton's .357 average against the Astros for his career is fifth all-time among players with at least 120 plate appearances against the Astros. Hanley Ramirez (.379), Kenny Lofton (.373), Joey Votto (.369) and Bake McBride (.361) are the only hitters with better batting averages against Houston.

Noises Off, Fore and Aft: Clarence Brown Theatre Presents Classic Modern Comedy About What Actors Don't Want You to See
Published 9/11/2013 at 11:08 a.m. 0 comments
Anyone who's been in a play knows that there are always two simultaneous dramas: the one presented to the audience, and the often more desperate one backstage.
Clarence Brown Theatre Produces High-Speed Farce With Tom Stoppard's 'On the Razzle'
Published 5/1/2013 at 9:41 a.m. 0 comments
Tom Stoppard's On the Razzle is a classic mistaken-identity, disapproving-parent, jealous-pursuit romp turned up a few notches. It's like a long Marx Brothers routine, with about a dozen Marx Brothers, and no musical breaks.
Downtown's Satirical Revue "Forbidden Knoxville" Tries Out a Fresh Venue
Published 4/17/2013 at 10:02 a.m. 0 comments
"You're so odd but we love you still," goes a refrain in the opening number of Flying Anvil's new musical production. The endearment is directed, of course, at the city of Knoxville, and expresses our sentiments exactly.

Published 4/10/2013 at 11:23 a.m. 0 comments
Five Women Wearing the Same Dress was first mentioned in these pages back in the '90s. Back then, we'd heard rumors of a wacky off-Broadway comedy that happened to be set in Knoxville. We never made the trip to see ...
Clarence Brown Theater Takes on Rothko in 'Red'
Published 2/6/2013 at 10:38 a.m. 0 comments
The drama plays out as a very animated dialogue between the late-middle-aged Rothko, at the peak of his ca. 1960 vogue, and a (fictional) young assistant named Ken. The main context is Rothko's famous challenge to decorate the walls of ...
Clarence Brown Theatre and KSO Collaborate On a Brilliant Production of Sondheim's 'Sweeney Todd'
Published 9/5/2012 at 10:54 a.m. 3 comments

Theatre Knoxville Uncovers Existential Absurdity in Tom Stoppard's 'Heroes'
Published 1/18/2012 at 11:32 a.m. 0 comments
Heroes isn't as bleak or, probably, as provocative as Beckett, but like that crypto-existentialist's work, occasionally breaks through the mundane reality of mere sadness to absurdity, which can make the human condition seem pretty hilarious.

If you are a hard core rider, you believe that their is no such thing has bad riding weather, just riding in the wrong clothes! If that describes you, or you are looking for ways to make your winter riding even more comfortable, here are four suggestions we think will add to your year-round riding enjoyment.
We will start at your feet, with Shimano's Cold/Wet GoreTex™ Shoe ($229.99). This SPD compatbile, lugged sole shoe is fully GoreTex lined and features a 5" high hook&loop closed cuff to slip under tights and keep rain and snow out. Three hook&loop straps secure you foot, and the fully lugged sole (with optional toe spikes, included) give great footing on any surface.
If you want to use your current cycling shoes, you can't beat the Gore Bike Wear Wind Stopper Overshoe ($79.99). These are wind-proof, water-resistant and fleece lined, and great for temps in the 40s and lower The wide open, re-enforced sole works with Look and SPD compatible shoes, and their 8" upper can be worn over or under tights. These are my personal favorite, and have help up well through two cold weather seasons.
Now let's talk about your hands. Showers Pass just introduced the Crosspoint™ series of gloves to go with their full line of rain and wind gear. The Crosspoint line includes four distinct gloves designed for active cycling. They are form fitting with freedom movement and lots of Showers Pass innovation. Their Softshell WP(water-proof) $79.99, using OutDry technology, is the ideal glove that wintry-mix commute or training ride.
However, if extreme weather protection (and comfort!) is your goal, you can't beat Bar Mitts™ ($64.99) for use with either road or mountain/flat handlebars. These wind-proof, lined neoprene sleeves cover the end of your handlebar, and allows your hand to slip inside for full access to brakes and shifters. You can wear any glove you like underneath for unrestricted movement, and the rigid opening allows for easy hand insertion and removal. If you suffer with the cold hand "Raynaud's Disease", these could be the solution you have been lookinf for.
Bicycle Garage Indy has all these in stock, along with a full line of bicycling clothing and outerwear from Gore Bike Wear, SmartWool, Pearl Izumi, Louis Garneau, Sugoi, Bontrager and Showers Pass. If you tips on clothing for any condition, you can also check out the BGI Cold Weather Clothing Guide (pdf).

New art installation lights up Bay Bridge's Western span
By News Producer
San Francisco is globally famous for being home to the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, but tonight it's the Bay Bridge that's making international headlines.
A new installation called "The Bay Lights" launches with 25,000 LEDs lighting up all the cables across the Western span of the Bridge, transforming it into an illuminated sculpture inspired by the surrounding environment.
Sculptor Leo Villareal is the project's light artist, but Ben Davis is the man who came up with the idea for the installation.
Hana Baba speaks with him about the nearly two-mile long art project that debuts tonight at 8:30pm.

What makes a party so great is taking the time to enjoy the guests and knowing that they went home speaking about how wonderful of a time was had by all! Entertaining guests can happen with a lot of class and ease if you follow a few simple steps.
Making certain you have enough time to plan ahead is essential. About six weeks is needed to properly plan for a successful party. Making a guest list, designing the invitations, planning the food and drink that you will serve, and shopping is next. Planning a party scheme with colors to be used ahead of time can help when you shop for napkins, plates and cups. Choose foods and recipes that don't require so much last minute time in the kitchen cooking.
When planning appetizers, it's always best to make smaller bite sized items that people can still enjoy while mingling and talking. Finger foods work great and having a server go around passing things out can help. Having plenty of small tables around the rooms will help guests flow more naturally through the rooms without congesting one table.
Go with a mixed variety of foods. Hot and cold foods will both be needed as well as some choices for vegetarians. Fruit trays and vegetable trays with dips are always enjoyed by many guests. Keep food temperatures in mind and put chilled foods on smaller trays and replenish from the refrigerator as they get low to keep things from going bad. Chafing trays, crock pots and heating plates can be used for hot foods. Don't forget the sweets! Cookies, brownies, and bakery goods are always good to have for those with a sweet tooth! Of course, nuts, chips, pretzels, dips and crackers and cheese are clearly a win over with guests.
Beverages are an important part of party planning. Most guests will consume 2 drinks per hour during the first couple of hours and about 1 per hour after that. Always be sure to have a good stock of ice on hand for refreshing ice buckets.
Your party does not have to cost a lot of money to be successful. Planning in advance, preparing in advance, and entertaining is essential to making sure all have a great time and this is the party that is successful!

What we expect from tomorrow's Apple iPad event
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Features, Handhelds, PC / Laptop, Software
Apple is set to go out with a bang this year with its big October 22 event. The obvious product announcement that everyone is expecting belongs to the iPad line, with the iPad 5 and iPad mini both seeing significant upgrades. What else can we expect from what will likely be the final Apple event of 2013? Join us after the break for our analysis and expectations.

Apple to announce redesigned iPad 5, iPad mini with Retina display on October 22
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Handhelds, PC / Laptop
Apple is set to announce its brand new iPad 5 and iPad mini with Retina display on October 22, according to AllThingsD sources familiar with the matter. After announcing the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c in September, Apple will be following a similar pattern to last year, with the October announcement focusing on its tablets.
So what can we expect from the event? For starters, the fifth-generation iPad will see a redesign, bringing in cues from the iPad mini, like the thinner side bezels and a more sleek rear design. The iPad mini will be picking up a Retina display, the one glaring omission from the original model that launched almost a year ago. No word yet on if the Touch ID fingerprint technology will make it to either tablet, but we have heard reports that we may see both a space gray color, and the champagne gold that's been popular on the iPhone 5s (see our iPhone 5s review.) IGZO display technology from Sharp may be featured here, and AllThingsD says that both models will sport the new 64-bit A7 processor as well.
Of course, there are other products we're waiting for Apple to update us on as well, so there's a good chance we will also get pricing and release information for the new Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (especially since the Mavericks Golden Master is available to developers,) and a spec bump for the MacBook Pro to include Haswell processors, and possibly an Apple TV update. Of course, we'll be here to bring you all the news as it unfolds.

iPhone 5s review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Features, Handhelds, Product Reviews, Videos
According to Apple, the iPhone 5s is the most forward thinking smartphone ever created. Of course, being that this is an S-model iPhone launching in a year that ends in an odd number, and that means that we'll find plenty of naysayers who dismiss Apple's flagship smartphone as simple and iterative. It looks just like last year's iPhone 5 on the outside, so what can be so different, right?
Well, being an S-class device, the iPhone 5s follows a now-familiar pattern. The iPhone 3GS in 2009 doubled the speed of the iPhone 3G from the year before and added video recording and basic voice commands. The iPhone 4S brought Siri, 1080p video, and dual-core processing. This year, Apple has highly focused the iPhone 5s on three big changes. The iPhone 5s is the first smartphone to ship with a 64-bit processor, and includes the first 64-bit version of iOS in iOS 7. It's also the first smartphone to ship with a capacitive fingerprint sensor, and includes a greatly improved camera system. Sure, these things may not be important to those who are just fine with their current iPhone (or competing device, for that matter,) but for Apple, these moves are a big deal and set up the future.
But is a phone so focused on a future worth your attention today? Join us for our full iPhone 5s review as we seek out the answer.

iPhone 5s Silver gallery
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Features, Handhelds
The white and silver iPhone 5s is the only model that maintains a color that was introduced with the iPhone 5, with the other two colors (gold and space gray) being brand new for this model year. Our iPhone 5s review is now live, but if you're interested in seeing the silver 5s up close, we've gathered a bunch of images of the silver iPhone 5 body for your perusal in our iPhone 5s Silver gallery. Be sure to also check out our iPhone 5s Space Gray gallery as well.
You can pick up the iPhone 5s now from Apple.

iPhone 5s Space Gray gallery
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Features, Handhelds
The space gray iPhone 5s replaces the black & slates iPhone 5 color that Apple released in 2012. Some users complained about how easy it was for the slate anodization to peel, wear, or chip off of the aluminum, so Apple made the call to go with the gunmetal gray hue, which is easier to anodize, and should result in far less complaints. Our iPhone 5s review just went live, but if you want a look at some images the gray iPhone 5s body for your perusal, they're in our iPhone 5s Space Gray gallery. Be sure to also check out our iPhone 5s Silver gallery while you're at it.

iPhone 5s Space Gray vs. Silver gallery
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Features, Handhelds
You've likely seen and heard all about the gold iPhone 5s. It's all the rage. But hey--there are two other great colors available as well! In fact, we think that the silver and space gray versions are far superior to the champagne bore, so we've given both colors the spotlight here, putting them head-to-head. The space gray iPhone 5s replaces the black & slate iPhone 5 color that Apple released in 2012, while the silver color is the same as the one found on the white & silver iPhone 5 from a year ago. Check them both out in our iPhone 5s Space Gray vs. Silver gallery. Be sure to also check out our iPhone 5s Silver gallery and iPhone 5s Space Gray gallery, and then pop over and read our iPhone 5s review!

iPhone 5c review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Features, Handhelds, Product Reviews
The iPhone 5c is Apple's first mid-range iPhone handset to be introduced as a new model alongside a higher-end version. Available in five distinct colors, the device sports last year's internals with a fresh coat of external paint. As such, it's clear that the iPhone 5c is going after a different demographic than the top-of-the-line iPhone 5s--one that isn't necessarily looking at the specs of the device, and instead cares about the look and feel, and wants access to Apple's App Store without breaking the bank. That said, don't think of the 5c as the cheap iPhone--in fact, we'd bet that the "c" is gonna stand for cash, because Apple is poised to make a lot of it with the introduction of the 5c.
Is the iPhone 5c the right phone for you? Join us as we answer that question in our full iPhone 5c review.

Silver and gold iPhone 5s to be severely constrained at launch
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds
The iPhone 5s goes on sale tomorrow, and if you're hoping to pick up a gold or silver model on launch day, you may wanna wake up early and get in line at your nearest Apple Store location. According to 9to5Mac, both the silver and gold iPhone 5s models will be severely constrained at launch, with carrier partners sharing that they will likely only have the Space Gray iPhone 5s for sale. This means that if you are hoping to pick up a gold or silver iPhone 5s, your best bet is to head to an Apple Store, and get there well before the 8:00am opening. If you head to somewhere like Walmart, Target, AT&T, Verizon, Spring, T-Mobile, and others, Space Gray may end up being your only option.
Of course, if you don't have to have your iPhone 5s on day one, you can simply order the color of your choosing from the Apple Store Online beginning tonight at midnight.

The iPod classic still lives on at $249 for 160GB storage
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Handhelds, Portable Audio / Video
Ever since Apple introduced the new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c last week, we've been gettign questions from readers asking if Apple killed the iPod classic. Of course, a quick glimpse at the Apple Store Online confirms that the classic lives on for another year. The iPod classic offers 160GB of storage for those who have huge music libraries and want to carry it all with them. Our guess is that until the iPod touch offers 128GB of storage, we will see the iPod classic continue to be sold. You can pick up the iPod classic for $249 in black and silver.

When the Dallas Mavericks began their title defense by allowing all of their key free agents to walk away, most pundits around the NBA came to the snap conclusion that the Mavericks were cashing in their chips in favor of targeting Deron Williams and/or Dwight Howard in free agency next summer. For all of his protestations to the contrary, Mark Cuban's team hasn't done anything to prove that conclusion wrong. Sure, Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry have been as clutch as ever, and Shawn Marion had another phenomenal year, but overall the Mavericks looked like a team with two eyes on the future and none on the present.
To his credit, head coach Rick Carlisle did a great straight-man routine all season, talking about how much he enjoys a challenge and how confident he is in this edition of the Dallas Mavericks. It sounded good, but it was hard to take it too seriously as the team limped through the season and finally played .500 ball over the last 44 games. In fact, if it weren't for the total collapse of the teams below them in the standings, the Mavericks might have missed the postseason altogether.
They didn't exactly finish the season on a high note, either. The Atlanta Hawks took turns torching them in the paint and from behind the three-point line as they handed Dallas a 106-89 loss to end the regular season.
A sign of things to come?
The Oklahoma City Thunder certainly believe so.
On Saturday the Mavs will officially begin their title defense, and they will do so against the team they eliminated in the Western Conference Finals last season. The difference is that this is virtually the same Thunder team, only with another year's experience and a hunger to win it all. Meanwhile, the Mavs are a year older, a year slower, and missing many of the key ingredients who helped make them champs last season. They also finished the season with a 13-20 road record, and they will play the first two games of the first round on the road.
A quick look back at the 2011-12 season shows that Dallas had little luck beating the Thunder. They lost two preseason games in which starters played significant roles for both teams, and then proceeded to lose two of the three regular-season meetings between the teams, as well. They can take some solace in the fact that the games were all relatively close, but that's about all.
No, on paper this series is over before it gets started. But then again, the series won't be played on paper.
The only way the Dallas Mavericks can repeat as champions is if the human element becomes a prominent factor in the equation. Jason Terry calling out LeBron James and then torching him for four games is an example of the human element. Peja Stojakovic showing up from out of nowhere to light up the Los Angeles Lakers is an example of the human element. JJ Barea zipping all over the court, foiling the best-laid defensive schemes is an example of the human element.
We know Dirk Nowitzki is going to be in MVP form. We know Jason Terry is going to take over in the fourth quarter. We know Shawn Marion is going to be a game-changer, especially on the defensive end and on the glass.
But where will the human element come in this year? Can Roddy Beaubois be this year's JJ Barea? Can Vince Carter play Peja Stojakovic's role? Will Brandan Wright's much-improved play be a factor in enough games to give Dallas an edge?
No one's going to pick the Mavericks to beat the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs, and honestly, it's hard to make a rational case. Then again, the postseason is where legends are made, and last season's championship run was extremely unlikely, as well. Only by overcoming tremendous odds and having a huge dose of the human element can the Mavericks have even a sliver of hope of repeating as champions, but we saw them pull off some pretty amazing things last postseason.
Never underestimate the heart of a champion? Well, no Hakeem Olajuwon here. Still, there's a lot of pride in those aging Mavericks' legs. Don't count them out just yet.
Worst NBA Team Ever?
The Charlotte Bobcats certainly took their lumps this season, winding up with the worst season percentage-wise in the history of the NBA. There is a clear long-term plan in place, but stomaching the short-term has been tough – especially for the players. DJ Augustin talks with HOOPSWORLD about the mounting losses, seeing his team constantly mentioned as the worst ever on TV, the path going forward, and how far the Bobcats are from being a respectable team in this exclusive interview.
It's been a difficult season for fans of the Denver Nuggets. After the unexpected success following last season's Carmelo Anthony trade, it seemed like the Nuggets might just be a home court advantage team come playoff time, yet for much of the year they looked like a team that might not even make the playoffs. Of course, a plethora of injuries played a huge role in that and another midseason trade shook things up a bit, but despite all of that the perception in Denver was that the Nuggets were capable of a lot more than they were accomplishing on the court.
After a scary brush with dropping outside of the playoff picture altogether, head coach George Karl shortened his rotation, leaned on his veterans, and the Nuggets ultimately grabbed the sixth seed by winning eight of their last ten games.
"I think we're ready to go into the playoffs and play the best basketball we've played all year long," Karl said in an interview with 102.3 The Ticket in Denver. "I think the young guys, Arron (Afflalo) and Ty (Lawson), have had solid to very good years. At times, they both had parts of the season where they weren't involved as much we would like them to be, but the last six weeks they have been I think very, very special and I think our big guys in a crazy way, all of them have figured out how to help us win games. Gallo (Danilo Gallinari) seems like he's getting his legs back and his feel for the game back, which I think we need in the playoffs to be successful, and the number one thing about our team all year long is our bench. Our bench has been spectacular. Andre (Miller) and Al (Harrington) have been big-time veterans; Corey Brewer has been really good off the bench, and I think some of the other guys have always pitched in. From Rudy Fernandez, even though he's out for the year, he helped us early in the season win three or four games and I think it's a young, energetic team that is really anxious. As a coach, I'm 60-years-old and I'm anxious to see what we can do and I don't think anybody in the NBA this year is that far away from anybody else. I will give Oklahoma City and San Antonio, they've had special years and are very, very good but it's a long process."
Early in the season Karl spoke frequently about how he believed the Nuggets could win a championship without a labeled superstar. He clarified in an interview with HOOPSWORLD, saying what he really meant was that he feels there are several players already in his locker room who could turn out to be superstars. This season Ty Lawson has emerged as the first player to perhaps live up to that billing.
"I think the one thing we have is two playmakers who can make plays in any game and we can win games because of it," said Karl. "Because of Ty's youthfulness, his speed, and his ability to probably be more explosive than Andre, I think he's our engine and I think Andre in a lot of ways is our steering wheel. I think everybody else is kind of the wheels of the car. I don't think there's any question that Ty and Andre are the guys that make our offense happen."
Conventional wisdom says you slow things down, control possessions and play a more deliberate style of basketball once the playoffs start, but Karl sees that as playing right into the Lakers' hands.
"If your team says run, play fast, and be aggressive then why would you want to be like the Los Angeles Lakers and slow down and play a possession game. I understand all the things that people say, but I'm going to be honest with you, San Antonio is playing just like we play. Oklahoma City plays a lot like how we play. They've won a lot more games and a lot more big games than we have, but if our defense continues to improve, which it has over the last four or five weeks, if we don't beat ourselves, we have a lot of talent and if we put the pieces together we can play with anybody in this league. Probably the key to our team in those situations is making shots from the outside and Ty Lawson being into every game."
There is a perception that Karl relies too much on his veteran players, but Karl is quick to point to the emergence of rookie Kenneth Faried as an example of how he is open to letting youth be served.
"Fortunately, I've always been on teams that had to make the playoffs and had to win 50 games or win 60 games. In Seattle, if we didn't win 60 games we had a bad year. The expectations of the team that you are with, if you expected us to make the playoffs this year, I want you to know if there's another rookie in the NBA today that played more minutes than Kenneth Faried as a rookie on a team that has made the playoffs. I don't know if there is or not. I haven't studied it but all I'm saying to you is rookies on teams that have to make the playoffs to have a great year they don't play. The team that drafts a guy with the sixth pick in the draft and won 20 games last year, yeah, he's going to play because they don't have to win 45 games. I disagree with all the crap that been said by all these fans that I don't play rookies. Ty Lawson played 24 minutes as a rookie. That is a lot of time for a rookie. We had to win 50 games to make the playoffs and he still played 25 minutes per game. Now, if you want to play rookies and give them minutes and lose, then that's not me. You're right. That's not me as a coach. I think you guys are way off board on the bullsh…crap that you guys have been throwing out about me and Kenneth. Kenneth has played a lot of minutes, he will continue to play a lot of minutes, and he's earned those minutes in the right way. He's earned it by the respect of the players, he's earned it by helping us win games and he's earned it by continuing to keep a strong, professional attitude."
Looking back on the crazy, lock-out shortened and cramped 2011-12 NBA season, Karl sees his team emerging with a definite direction and emerging personality.
"I think the personality was we drifted from a team that didn't have a direction to a team that now has a good direction. A team that with Arron, Ty and all the young guys from the New York trade and we didn't exactly know what we would be this year and I think come this summer, Masai (Ujiri), Josh and I and the whole organization is going to know what we have to do. After the lockout, the new collective bargaining agreement, we've regrouped, re-established ourselves as a playoff team that's dangerous, and if we make some good moves in the next couple of years we're going to be really dangerous."
Taking out the Los Angeles Lakers, even without Metta World Peace, is a daunting challenge. Kobe Bryant wants another championship, and equally wants to make up for a disappointing finish to last year's playoffs. Standing between Kobe and his goals has proven to be a losing proposition, but the Nuggets feel they are at least up to the challenge.

One week ago in Chicago a new line of designed not pet clothes was introduced among the items was a -- Jacobs dull coat.
Embroidered with the woods Bok for Obama.
The event was an Obama fund -- So here's my take on the -- wouldn't talk who helped organize the pet clothing show.
I've made fun of ms.
wintour in the past and I'm gonna do it again.
She has the reputation of being a mom stuff among those she -- which is in the fashion business but that has not stopped President Obama from using coming commercials and the big money fund raises evidently his quest for money.
The president is willing to take the risk of alienating the vast majority of Americans who detest the that ms.
wintour -- is that every time.
She even pronounce is the first lady's name -- huge as if -- some quaint European now.
Now we -- on that ms.
-- is the system of a top -- they follow left British newspaper the guardian you know.
According to a source in the New York Times ms.
-- is quote incredibly concerned with where this country and America is going.
-- -- -- Ms.
-- -- -- leftist who wants to make America like Europe in my opinion she is precisely the kind of immigrant we could do without.
I don't like British people coming over here are making a ton of money and looking down their noses happens.
You come over India you better get on board with America if not get a little plane leave -- take yes socialism with you.
Can the second Arctic for you -- feel that good -- glad you could I it's an interesting it's interesting right like it went real -- falling -- with you if you I'm not mean by -- stuff but most things -- I don't know whole.
That deal with it is element the social socialist elitism -- it goes together -- -- and -- remember the former head of the IMF the guy was cart with a made in in new network.
He beat that rap but apparently there -- a couple of others that he still hanging on to win in France -- how many times are we gonna see this of leftist.
Who's who believed talked sold glowingly about the working -- there had no clue about what the working class does for a living multimillion -- leftists.
What's so frustrating is -- income equality push that Obama you know it's.
That's all part of his campaign right we're gonna pay higher taxes if you earn more money yet he's dependent on these people like Anna wintour to.
The interesting thing is though now most of the money for from Obama seems to be coming from these so lead -- to millionaires and most of the money for Mitt Romney seems to be coming from lower down the economic stress so that's a very interesting switch.

Ginger Spices Up Skin Care
Posted: July 30, 2007
Ginger is a traditional Ayurvedic ingredient that has been used for centuries to prevent as well as cure diseases such as skin disorders, fever and digestive problems. In China it is used to treat colds while in Japan ginger oil massages are said to ease joint pain because of this rhizome's anti-inflammatory properties. In the West, ginger root extract is used primarily for its warming effect to soothe and relax. It has been popular in bath, body and foot care for many years and is featured in ranges from Origins and This Works, among others. According to Mintel GNPD Cosmetic Research, ginger is now appearing as a key ingredient in radiance and anti-cellulite products.
For its Beauté Initiale range for younger skin (25-34), Chanel sought 'the most complete anti-oxidant ingredient.' It chose blue ginger from Madagascar and then treated it with a process known as polyfractioning. The result was said to be a purer, more concentrated active ingredient that offered broad spectrum anti-free radical actions. The range also contains vitamins and trace elements. The Energising Multi-Protection Cream SPF 15 is said to revive, protect and provide radiance to stressed or tired skin.
Building on the traditional Japanese use of this ingredient, but with a signature Greek influence, Korres Natural Products launched Arnica and Ginger Leg Relief Cream. This leg and foot cream promotes micro-circulation to provide relief from tired or heavy legs. It contains ginger oil to comfort aching muscles and joints, as well as arnica and other classic Greek island ingredients such as almond oil, rosemary and grape seed extract. The cream is free from parabens, silicone, mineral oil, propylene glycol and preservatives.
Ginger's energizing action is also suitable for anti-cellulite formulas. In the United Kingdom, Green People Organic Body Spa introduced Triple Action Cellulite Lotion with ginger and bayberries to stimulate circulation and combat cellulite. Described as 'organic food for your skin,' the lotion is made of 89.9% certified organic ingredients and reportedly contains no petrochemicals, parabens or unnecessary synthetic additives.
UK biocompatible brand Nude Skin Care launched Smoothing Body Refiner with stimulating organic mountain ash, phytoactive ginger, ginkgo, green coffee, fig extract and cupuacu butter. The product is said to boost micro-circulation, smooth and nourish all skin types.

Comments about The North Face Gold Kazoo 30F Down Sleeping Bag - Long Size:
I've only used this bag on one two-day car camping trip. It kept me warm in 32-37f over night temps in my Marmot Limelite 4P on a Thermarest Neo Air pad, wearing shorts, a t-shirt and wool socks. The lining is silky smooth and the hood covers very well. I'm 6'3" 215 and found it to be plenty roomy for a mummy. It did leak a few feathers, but no more than others I've seen.

All Ceiling Fans Are Not Created Equal
"Casablanca fans have a legendary reputation for quality and reliability"
From the furniture-grade wood veneer on the blades to the bearings in the motor, the exquisite craftsmanship of a Casablanca fan extends deep beneath its finish. Discerning consumers know that quality construction and meticulous attention to detail create a superior product, which ultimately yields superior performance and lasting durability. To see the process behind Casablanca's legendary reputation for quality and reliability, join us on a "behind the scenes" tour of the various phases of development as one of Casablanca's flagship products, the 19th Century fan, evolves from inception through final inspection.
Phase One
Concept Development
The process begins with ideation—small, quick sketches to investigate various design directions. Once these sketches have captured the essence of the product, they move to the digital world. Using state-of-the-art Alias 3D software, our designers begin to construct virtual products. This software allows us to make subtle yet critical refinements, create photorealistic renderings, and utilize rapid prototyping techniques to quickly develop models for evaluation.
Phase Two
Once the designs have been completed and approved for development, they are transferred digitally to Casablanca's Engineering Department. Using Pro Engineer software, our engineers seamlessly continue the development of the product, ensuring that the design integrity remains intact and the product is produced as designed. Completed engineering assemblies are transferred digitally to our manufacturing partners to maintain a high level of quality and performance.
Phase Three
Raw Materials
Each 19th Century component was created for a specific purpose. Materials were chosen for quality, durability, and beauty. Use of virgin zinc (not remelted scrap) creates detailed die-cast housings, blade holders, and other components of structural integrity and inherent beauty. Furniture-grade wood veneer blades and custom hand-blown glass add to the overall elegance of the product.
Phase Four
Finished Metal
There are no less than 15 different steps in the plating process of the 19th Century fan. The finishes are applied in meticulous steps for exceptional durability and a brilliant jewel-like finish. Several steps of the plating process are shown at right.
Phase Five
Testing and Inspection
Before being packed for shipping, every component of the 19th Century fan is inspected carefully. Every detail is given meticulous attention under strict quality control standards and the final product is inspected to ensure proper form, fit, and function.
Phase Six
Retail Showroom
The best way to experience "The Casablanca Difference" is to visit your local Authorized Casablanca Dealer. With the assistance of a thoroughly trained Casablanca Specialist, you will be able to see firsthand the Quality in Every Detail™ of a Casablanca ceiling fan.
Phase Seven
Customer Support
Casablanca provides the most comprehensive service in the industry. Customers receive outstanding support from a dedicated team of seasoned professionals at Casablanca headquarters as well as through a network of 450 Authorized Service Centers nationwide.
