Exclusive: Edgar Wright Talks Ant Man
And he's working with Simon Pegg again
Despite grabbing gold at the Sony Ericsson Empire Awards, Hot Fuzz helmer Edgar Wright clearly isn't ready to rest on his laurels just yet. He's ready to roll on a number of projects starting off with an adaptation of minuscule superhero Ant Man.
He's been attached to the big-screen version of Marvel's tiny comic book superhero - a character who can communicate with insects - for a while and the time, it seems, has come for the little man to make his move towards the big screen.
"It's written and we're doing a second draft of it," said Wright. "It's going to be less overtly comedic than anything else I've ever done. It's more of a full-on action adventure sci-fi film but with a comedic element – in the same spirit of a lot of escapist fare like that. It's certainly not a superhero spoof or pastiche and it certainly isn't a sort of Honey I Shrunk The Kids endeavour at all."
He's not got anybody in mind to play comicdom's tiniest hero just yet, so the big question at the moment is what incarnation will the hero take - the goody-two-shoes scientist Hank Pym originated by comic legends Stan Lee and Jack Kirby or Ant Man mark-II, the more roguish Scott Lang?
"Ah well, it could be Scott Lang, it could be Hank Pym, it could be both – okay it is both, now there's an exclusive for you."
While Wright puts the finishing touches to his script with co-writer Joe Cornish, he's got some other projects on the boil, including another collaboration with Simon Pegg. Could this be the final part of his so-called Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy?
"That's one of the things that we're going to do with Working Title who we've just signed a two-picture deal with," he said. "It will have comedy and a cross-genre in a similar way.
So how will it compare to Hot Fuzz and Shaun Of The Dead?
"Well, it'll be a trilogy in tone but I can't say any more than that. If you announce what the subject matter is, it can still be 18 months off and by that point everybody would be sick of it."
Clearly playing his cards close to his chest, we guess we'll have to wait and see how it'll all pan out. What do you reckon to the Brist director's latest revelations? Does he have the Wright stuff? Have your say below...

Highly recommended brand for quality
Reviewed By FRANK M (CENTRAL SQUARE, NY) Reviewed for a 2008 Ford Focus —1/8/2017 10:36 AM
I have quite a few weathertech items in my vehicles and they don't disappoint. The only complaint i would have is it's too smooth so things can roll around - but i bought it for protection when throwing in things that might be dirty or damp to protect the carpet underneath and that's what it does best. Just have to reverse roll it to straighten it out but other than that it fits well.

With the passing of Dave Brubeck on Wednesday, one of the greatest innovators in jazz history is gone.
Fortunately, there are decades of recordings, including this 1966 video of one of his best known hits, Take 5. Whether it's Take 5, Blue Rondo a la Turk, In Your Own Sweet Way and dozens of others, his use of non-traditional time signatures changed jazz forever and challenged all musicans that follow in his footsteps. If your collection is missing the legendary Time Out, you're missing something special.
I'm relieved his music is trending, because, sadly, so is Last Christmas by Wham!. YouTube, or good taste, must be broken.

In this profile we review this large region but where there exist only 10 suitable ETFs to feature. Some parts of the region would be in the Pioneer category meaning they're truly in their infancy for investors. Others are quite mature and have existed for quite some time with high AUM (Assets under Management) investor interest and acceptance. Demographics play a key role and in that regard selections in this diverse region are extremely varied. Russia is beginning to struggle with an aging population while the MENA (Middle East & Africa) sectors have a more youthful and developing consumer market. Russian and South African markets are rich in natural resources making for volatility along with the price action in commodity markets. South Africa has both a high level natural resources and excellent demographics meaning a rising consumer base. During 2011 the MENA region has been swept up in the Arab Spring as long ruling dictators have been thrown out and new regimes will take their place. It is uncertain how these developments will affect what markets exist in affected countries like Egypt and so forth. We rank the top 10 ETF by our proprietary stars system as outlined below. But given the diversity of this sector making these choices becomes a greater challenge.
Strong established linked index
Excellent consistent performance and index tracking
Low fee structure
Strong portfolio suitability
Excellent liquidity
Established linked index even if "enhanced"
Good performance or more volatile if "enhanced" index
Average to higher fee structure
Good portfolio suitability or more active management if "enhanced" index
Decent liquidity
Enhanced or seasoned index
Less consistent performance and more volatile
Fees higher than average
Portfolio suitability would need more active trading
Average to below average liquidity
Index is new
Issue is new and needs seasoning
Fees are high
Portfolio suitability also needs seasoning
Liquidity below average We feature a technical view of conditions from monthly chart views. Simplistically, we recommend longer-term investors stay on the right side of the 12 month simple moving average. When prices are above the moving average, stay long, and when below remain in cash or short. Some more interested in a fundamental approach may not care so much about technical issues preferring instead to buy when prices are perceived as low and sell for other reasons when high; but, this is not our approach. Premium members to the ETF Digest receive added signals when markets become extended such as DeMark triggers to exit overbought/oversold conditions.

Meet the Devil: 3 Most Influential Men beyond Ahmadinejad
Iran's pentagon is the place devil resides. It's been called the office and residential place of the supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei. It's located in central Tehran. From the north it neighbors Azerbaijan Street. From the east extends to the Palestine Street where the 'Islamic Propaganda Organization' is. From the south it connects to the Presidential office and from the West it reaches a couple of important organizations such as the 'National Security Council'.
Anyway, there're three men inside this complex who are in charge of almost every event in the country. Every act of the government as well as judiciary and legislative should be monitored first via any of these three.
Asgar Hejazi is the one responsible for the security of the complex and the supreme leader himself. He's extremely paranoid thus no one has a better picture of him. It's been said that he's also responsible for managing a parallel intelligence unit over official intelligence ministry of Iran. That unit has played the role of a dead squad on dissidents both inside and outside the country as early as Khamenei seized the power two decades ago. He's responsible for any attack on students and dissidents.
'Mr. Vahid' is currently enjoying so much power in the complex no one believes he's almost a newcomer. As the head of a 'Sepah Pasdaran' army, he came to direct Iranian politics sometimes around 2009 presidential election. As no one knows his real name, still we are not sure what he is exactly responsible for in the complex.
Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of Ayatollah Khamenei, is the one marching on to be the next supreme leader. He's very busy in the security matters and tries to be influential on every issue in the complex. He is the one who brought Ahmadinejad to his father and supported him almost on any turmoil. Still he is the main supporter of Ahmadinejad. There has been a rumor around that both are directing Iran's nuclear research towards a military form of obtaining bombs.
Iran utilized Phosphorus Gas during the Crackdown
It's been documented by the Iran's Human Rights Documentation Center (IHRDC) that during the crackdown after 2009 election, the Islamic regime utilized Phosphorus gas on occasions among opponents in the streets of Tehran. There is evidence documented; however, many witnesses were confirmed of utilizing dangerous and odd forms of military gases on civilians during those stunning days of Iran.
Here I quote from that evidence, the human rights violation case of 'Farideh'. She says:
"…I participated in the protests on June 20, 2009 – the day Neda [Agha-Soltan] was killed – and was injured. I was in the vicinity of Tohid Square in Tehran when government forces attacked the protestors with some type of gas. At first I thought it was tear gas, but I soon realized it was something different. By that point I had become used to the feel of tear gas due to repeated exposure in the protests. But this was different. Everyone around me collapsed to the ground. I myself suddenly felt dizzy and nauseous and my knees buckled right there on the street. People from the surrounding shops who witnessed the incident brought water and poured some on my head. I felt a little bit better. Somebody helped lay me down on a bus to take me home. I felt only half-conscious on the ride home. I remember that while I was on the bus, a woman in chador[long veil] told my friend that I deserved to be in that state, and that the election was over. Her careless comment started an argument among the bus riders… I later learned that the mysterious gas I had been sprayed with was phosphorous gas. After I was exposed to the gas, small blisters began appearing all over my body. When I went to my doctor, he examined the blisters and told me that the lesions were synonymous with exposure to phosphorous gas. Today, even after nine months have passed since the incident, the wounds are still visible on my body…" (Farideh interviewed by IHRDC on April 18th, 2010)
Now the question is what kind of state does this to his people? I strongly maintain the fact that Islamic dictatorship in Iran has no mercy to humanity. Whoever does this to his people instantly and without any further consideration or even fear, cannot have mercy to people of other countries around the globe. Undoubtedly, the common sense is responding clearly and decisively that the 'Deterrence Theory' fails if the current regime of Iran, the rouge & Stalinist state, reaches WMDs. In fact, they showed up in a number of occasions that they have secretly worked on worse cases of chemicals & biological as soon as the Iran-Iraq 8-year war had begun. It was almost around that period of time in which they had begun their secret quest towards the Atomic bomb. To avoid a disaster such as North Korea to happen in Iran there's not much time left. You can either stay neutral do nothing or serving humanity by acting in favor of a free and democratic regime to establish in Iran.
The choice is all yours whether you're helping Iranians fighting a barbaric & brutal regime or…
Obeying Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic considered 'Sharia Obligatory'
This article is a translation of the following Persian article published by the Green Movement of Iran's official website => http://www.rahesabz.net/story/19874/
JARAS: For the first time, and openly, the supreme leader of the Islamic Republic in response to a religious letter, placed himself officially on the saint level of 'all-qualified priest', 'deputy Imam at the time of (twelfth Imam's) absence', 'ruling branch of the Imams' and 'true all-time deputy to the Prophet'. And pointed out there shall be an absolute obedience regarding his governmental orders, he indicated, so forth reveals the 'full commitment to the Supreme Leader'.
According to Iranian Labour News Agency (ILNA) designers of the religious question to Mr. Khamenei had asked him 'please explain regarding the obligation to Velayat-Fagih (the Doctrine of Absolute Jurisprudence). In other words, how we have to act to reveal our full faith pledge to the legitimate successor of the (twelfth) Imam.'
Mr. Khamenei has responded, 'Velayat (religious rule) means the rule of all-qualified priest in the age of (twelfth Imam's) absence and it is a ruling branch of all Imams which is the same as the realm of the Prophet and by the fact that obeying governmental orders of the vali-fagih (the Absolute Jurisprudence), is the indication of full commitment to it.'
Thus, the Supreme Leader of Islamic Republic, in response to the above Question, primarily and officially call himself an 'all-qualified priest' and 'successor Imam in the age of (twelfth Imam's) absence' and called his government 'of the ruling branch (realm) of all Imams' and 'Messenger (Prophet's) realm' and noted obeying the governmental orders of the Vali-Fagih (the absolute Jurisprudence) reveals the complete obedience to Velayat-Fagih (the doctrine of absolute jurisprudence).
Two decades before and after the selection of Mr. Khamenei as the Supreme leader (after the death of late leader of the Islamic Republic) the late Ayatollah Montazeri and some prominent Clergymen didn't accept him as the 'all-qualified priest' competent to leadership. And due to this for so many years they were become subject to harassment and imprisonment and insult.
According to HAYAT reporter, deputy press secretary to Ministry of Culture & Guidance of Ahmadinejad's Government, Mohammad Ali Ramin, right after publication of Mr. Khamenei's response, emphasized on his news conference today: "If we pay close attention today, we derive from and develop all of our fundamental analyses from the principles and guidelines of the Imam Khamenei.'

Poujadism in Iran: Bazaar's getting united gradually
On 23rd of July 1953, when Pierre Poujade prevented inspectors of the tax board from verifying the income of another shopkeeper with a group of about 20 others, he absolutely had no idea more than half a century later his strike method will get into Tehran's main bazaar. And now Iran is again headed for strike season almost after 32 years. The last widespread strike in Iranian Bazaar (central marketplace) had paralyzed the Shah's regime and forced his economy to a sudden and painful collapse.
It's been more than a week now Bazaar is on strike mainly in Tehran which has been followed by a number of other influential cities such as Tabriz and Mashhad. The latest news reveals the trend is on rise and likely to hit other regions soon. It all began when Ahmadinejad's government representative on tax and duties announced an unbelievable 70% tax on annual income for business owners. The last year's tax income for entrepreneurs and business owners were at most 25 to 30 percent. So, it was quite predictable from the beginning that something is going to happen, and it happened sooner than many expected.
History has revealed that dictatorships always fear a strike more than rebellion. The act of strike simply has the shout of a nation's unity and strength loud to the oppressor; while, a rebellion can best maintain to a week or two and retreat fast soon after. Consequently, the only option available to the Islamic dictatorship of Iran is to act like a sneak rat, as they always did, and try to damage the unity. But strikes have a point of no-return. The point that seems to me is close to be reached is being followed gradually and smoothly in about a year period of time. That point has the sweetness of unity among the nation and as they experience its fruitfulness through the coming strikes, they won't give it up.
It's better for the Islamic regime of Iran to count to ten, because they're going soon and they're going painfully.
Iran's Aggressive Nuke Strategy seeks Legality
On the NEWS => Iran Passes Bill On Uranium Enrichment
Iranian parliament spokesperson announced earlier today that the assembly urges government of ahmadinejad to persue uranium enrichment even further. Anytime the Islamic assembly decides on an issue that the interests of the government are not pursued on, the supreme leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, steps in and announces the bill outlaw. And of course by the constitution he has such an absolute power over any legislation. Therefore, it doesn't surprise many Iranians that the predominantly conservative assembly more or less works with the government in order to avoid such clashes by which only damages assembly's not so good reputation.
It seems that international pressures on ahmadinejad force him to play on fake legitimacy. That's in fact one of merely two options left for him. He needs to inform the west his rush towards nuclear energy is legal and backs by the parliament. It's something that is very respectful in the west. At the same time he tries his other less importance option in addition. It's the false indication he's always played to exhibit Iran is only after peaceful nuclear energy; yet, even according to the common sense, it's been obvious he has one aim and one aim only to acquire enough nukes to 'wipe Israel off the map'.
He is gradually revealing signs of international pressures on his nervous gestures and his far beyond nonsense speeches compare to his past. Economics aside for a while, whatever he's dealing with these days should be less than sum of pressures he had same time last year. He has this gigantic power of strength and gradual progress as much as Adolf Hitler did. That is why for the sake of humanity something has to be done better sooner than later.
Sunnis vs. Shias: different branches of Islam at war
The unfortunate blood pool occurred two days ago in Zahedan, south-eastern Iran, wasn't something inevitable. Two separate bombings in a shia mosque had more than twenty killed and several injured. In response to government's mismanagement and failure to provide security, two MPs of the province in the 'Islamic Majlis' resigned and handed over their duties to the assembly.
Iranians don't need to lose lives in their gradual quest for freedom and democracy. In fact, reaching democracy is way different from mastering a classic-type revolution or freeing one's own country from enemy hands in a war-time. However to be honest with the reader of these lines, among Iranian conservatives of both revolutionary and anti-revolutionary camps liberty and democratic governance are not an issue.
They have the issue of religion deep in their daily politics, yet, they're the ultimate power holders. They kill, torture, behead and rape for the sake of their own definition of Islam. But one party, I believe, should be blamed responsible for the creation of a vicious circle by which only violence plays on top. That party is the Iranian-Islamic state terrorism itself. They have to be held responsible first and for good.
Majority of Iranians are considered as 'shia' muslims. Iranian ethnography shows they are mostly located in prosperous, central parts of Iran. However, Iran has historically had minority Sunni believers of Islam, who lived through the least prosperous locations mainly on the border line. There's no doubt that south-eastern Iran called 'Sistan & Baluchestan Province' is the poorest among other twenty-something provinces. It lacks major infrastructures and surprisingly has been the most trusted drug-trafficking route to Europe. It mainly consists of two ethnicities: Sistanis, minority shia population, and Baluchs, majority Sunni indigenous of the region. Sadly, they've been at war for the last century that even intensified during last thirty years of Islamic dictatorship.
Islamism has been tough and serious among both ethnicities. They've always represented by their religious identity. The disaster happened recently was in fact a retaliation by militant Sunni activists of Baluch origin who were deeply grounded in last two months after their leader got arrested via an Iranian-Pakistani intelligence cooperation and executed later last month. And now, we've witnessed their severe retaliation. Sadly, it's a vicious circle of violence ignited by the Islamic state of Iran.

The sign of Madness!
How many head of state do you know in history to act mad on occasions? Surely they're not much. But it's been common among Iranian politicians after the revolution to talk nonsense or stupid and even funny on almost every occasion. The least blooper was in fact the reformist and former president Khatami who I can say has been the best of the worst so far in three decades of the Islamic dictatorship.
However, blooping trend has been on rise since ahmadinejad got into presidential office at 2005. Beside the fact that majority in Iran and many outside know him as a complete and everyday blooper, after the uprising of post-election 2009 pious blooping is getting doubled and even tripled in scale. Laughingly, the trend acts like an epidemic is spreading far and wide to remotest holes of the state!
The very last blooping was by the head of Islamic Judiciary, Sadeq Larijani, whose brother is the head of 'Islamic Majlis', an assembly under supreme leader's full control. On his latest remarks, he amazingly said yesterday that Iranians need absolutely no account of sociology and psychology to be taught or discussed in any form and social sphere. Of course that's part of Mullahs terminology to use very common names targeting specific interests and mean completely different. They usually mean the intelligent agents, political and 'sharia'police or BASIJ (paramilitary guardians of revolution) by pointing on terms such as 'people' or 'Iranians' during their speech in general.
As far as I know when the sign of madness conquers the hearts and minds of politicians in a state, that system is going to pass slowly away. Madness, stupidity, and anger are just signs of weakness of the wicked. It seems international pressures are started to revealing their fist.

Fairley joins FOX's revival of the Kiefer Sutherland-starring series as the widow of a notorious terrorist, replacing Judy Davis who recently bowed out of the project.
Michelle Fairley has landed another TV gig after her "Game of Thrones" character's storyline ended. The Northern Irish actress joins the cast of FOX's miniseries "24: Live Another Day", taking over the villainous role left by Judy Davis who recently dropped out of the project.
Fairley will be seen as Margot, a British national and widow of a notorious terrorist, the role which initially belonged to Davis. Davis cited personal family matters as the reason of her exit, but did not divulge the details.
"24: Live Another Day", still starring Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer, is set London, four years after the events in the series finale. Now an exile, heroic agent Jack nevertheless is willing to risk his life and freedom to avert yet another global disaster. He attempts to thwart an unthinkable terrorist attack in London that could change the world forever.
Mary Lynn Rajskub returns as Chloe, who is now working underground. The actress dishes on her character's state, "When you find Chloe, she's just somewhere we've never seen her before. She's in a bad, bad spot...I've gone anti-government and when Jack and I are finally reunited, we're not seeing eye-to-eye and he's being hunted by a CIA agent."
Benjamin Bratt stars as CIA head Steve Harries, Yvonne Strahovski plays CIA agent Kate Morgan, Giles Matthey is CIA computer tech Jordan Reed, and Gbenga Akinnagbe is cast as a strong and arrogant field operative named Erik Ritter. William Devane returns as James Heller, who is now President of the United States, and Golden Globe Award nominee Stephen Fry joins in a recurring role.
The "24" revival premieres with a two-hour event Monday, May 5 at 8 P.M. on FOX.
Fairley, best known as Catelyn Stark on HBO's hit series "Game of Thrones", has recurred on USA Network's "Suits" following Catelyn's tragic death on the medieval drama.

The GOP lead effort to malign the Racine recall with tales of fraud and worker abuse came up with nothing on Friday when the results of the (breathless) sheriff's investigation report was released.
The boys at One Wisconsin Now turned up the heat on the Racine Sheriff and DA to release the report. Ta da! Not only did they release the report, the DA also said they would not pursue any investigation since it was clear the complaints were utter bullshit. (Not a direct quote - but close.)
At the center of the shit-storm was no less than flunky Lou D'Abbraccio - who seems to be the only person mentioned in the 19 page report who actually did break the law.
MASSIVE voter FRAUD and STOLEN elections has been D'Abbraccio's primary meme come election time for years - it's a floor show everyone has seen before.
However, it should be noted that this year D'Abbraccio put his hyperbole in overdrive. D'Abbraccio's obsession has resulted in a ridiculous sheriff's investigation - a price tag for which we'd be very interested in knowing. A dozen or so open records requests that suck up the time of city workers to comply and coordinate. All to fill an insatiable need to shit on City Hall and piss on voters in the inner city.
So how big a waste of time was it? Oh, it was epic.
PART ONE - Ottelien Takes A Dive
Wanggaard best buddy and ticking time bomb of anger mismanagement, Mike Ottelien got the ball rolling after Election Day when he went for a swim in the dumpster outside Cesar Chavez Community Center. Who can blame him? His best friend just lost the election. Who wouldn't rummage through a nasty dumpster to help a friend out?
So Ottelien (who we should mention is such a massive hot head that an office at City Hall which he frequents to subject city workers to his dickish rants had to install a door buzzer so he can't barge right through scaring the shit out of the staff), climbs into the dumpster and rummages around for awhile. He comes up with some ripped up voter registration forms which he places in a garbage bag along with a prescription bottle (?) a couple of bills and - get this - a MacDonald's food bag. Eew.
THIS is their smoking gun.
He leaves the bag of trash in the office of the sheriff's department investigator - who must have been fucking thrilled. The best part is he tells the investigator he has a photograph of himself IN the dumpster verifying it was he who found the trash. Note: We'd pay some serious cash for that picture...just saying.
So what did it add up to? Nothing. From the investigation report:
"In summary, none of the items brought to the Sheriff's Office removed from the dumpster by Ottelien prove or even suggest voter fraud had occurred at the Cesar Chavez Center. The items discarded in the trash are just that, trash."Ouch. Are they really this stupid or is their naked aggression and racism so overwhelming they cannot possibly see what jerks they are? Ottelien is so certain that nefarious activities are happening that literally (and insanely) anything is proof enough for him and his friends.
Tomorrow...Breaking The Law To Prove People Are Breaking The Law - Except THEY Aren't

Generierung schiefer Verteilungen mittels Skalenparametersplittung
There are several proposals of adding a skewness parameter into a symmetric distribution. Most of them are combined with a certain distribution. The following working paper will present an universal method of generating an asymmetric distribution. As an application this method is used to make the Generalized-t-distribution skewed - thus producing the Skewed-Generalized-t (SGT-), the SGT2- and the SGT3-distribution. These distributions include several well known distributions like the Normal-, Laplace-, t-, Cauchyand Box-Tiao-distribution. They also allow a higher leptokurtosis, what makes them suitable for the estimation of financial data

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Many Arlington parents either drove their children to school Monday morning or made other arrangements to keep their children safe as police continue to search for a man who tried to abduct an 11-year-old boy Friday morning.
"It's not safe for them to be outside by themselves, so I always walk them every day to school," said Vladimir Henderson.
Police said the boy was walking to Fort Caroline Middle School along University Club Boulevard between 8:40 a.m. and 8:45 a.m. when a man pulled up in black, newer-model Toyota four-door car with dark tinted windows and tried to grab him.
Investigators said the boy fought the man off and ran away, and the man then sped off.
The attempted kidnapper is described as a white man in his 30s with wavy, sandy blond hair. The man had a tattoo on the back of his left hand of a heart with a ribbon through it and three letters on the ribbon.
Police released sketches both of the man's face and of the tattoo.
On Monday, Fort Caroline Middle Principal Jennifer Bridwell sent a letter home to parents reminding them to review stranger-danger tips with their children. [Read letter]
Linda Young said the tips are something she has already hammered home to her four young grandchildren who live near the school.
"They all hold hands. No one goes anywhere without the other one," Young said. "They are all together. And if someone comes up to you, run screaming."
Anyone with information on the man's identity or the attempted kidnapping is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 866-845-TIPS.

4G SIM cards arrive on Verizon
Until then, however, Verizon still has to bring some LTE-capable handsets to work on that network. The company's 4G arsenal is limited to only two 4G USB modems at the moment, both of which appeared on Verizon's website in the beginning of the month. What is 4G bringing in terms of speed? Big Red promises average speeds ranging from 5 Mbps to 12 Mbps, so get ready for real-life download rates from 625 KBps to 1.5 MBps. Actually, the technology is capable of delivering much more, with initial tests showing download rates boom to 28 Mbps, but traffic congestion will slow it down significantly.
Verizon's LTE is expected in 38 major metropolitan areas by year-end, which would cover some 110 million Americans. Do you expect 4G to deliver as much as it promises?

Ok cool. Now, if only they would make the 4G phones for these SIM cards to go into. Sounds like a good idea.

Maybe the HTC Merge that was 'delayed' from Nov 11th will be coming w/ the 4G radio and front facing camera...
Oh how I wish.

who the hell cares about front facing cameras!? what for?? so you and your woman can masturbate together and watch one another at the same time when you cant be together??

@Gus P - I think what he is sayin is front facing cameras are overrated. To a degree i share his same disinterest b/c since the first front facing camera on a phone has seen the light of day people act like "oh, it doesn't have a front facing camera? that phone is lame" type of an approach now which is pure ignorance, i think.

I am really curious about what happens to the effective download speed once 4G handsets are available. Last week, I was at a Verizon store checking out the Samsung Galaxy tablet and the sales rep was telling me about how fast it was on a 3G connection. So I asked if the tablet that I was looking at was on the 3G network (it was displaying the 3G symbol) and the sales rep confirmed that it was. I logged onto speakeasy.net/speedtest and ran a test cycle, and lo and behold, the download speed was 280 kbps (ironically, upload speed was 560 kbps...). Sales rep was very quiet when I showed hiim the test results.
I wonder what the real life download speed of Verizon's 4G network is going to be.
4. zerglisk (Posts: 544; Member since: 09 Feb 2010)
Yes, numbers dont lie, ppl do!
3G speeds just varies from time to time and places to places, so doing a single test cannot justify the whole 3G service anyway.
A constant 5~8 Mbps should be great for a current 4G service imo.....
6. BobbyTaba (Posts: 316; Member since: 11 Aug 2010)
u gotta test it a few times to see if it stays the same

LTE wont ever be capable of the standards set for 4G. So technically I can see how you can say that.
However, it is a "fourth" gen of wireless tech. So essentially it is 4G.
13. Pings (Posts: 304; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
No "4G" is real 4G that goes for every carrier. Real 4G is over 100Mbps. We are going to have to wait for 5G (LTE Advanced) to get real 4G. But, no really cares if it's real 4G or not so just get over and call it what it's not.
25. CRICKETownz (Posts: 980; Member since: 24 Oct 2009)
Does it matter if the label doesn't meet the "technical" definition of 4G speeds or is it more important that the service is faster/more reliable than the competition? Do customers care about who has the biggest 700mhz spectrum and upload/download numbers? No. All they are concerned with is does it work more efficient than what the previous technology was. Carriers don't refer to 4G so much in the sense as the technical 4G speed definition but more so as the next generation of technology for the industry. I could care about the numbers all that matters is does it offer me a better experience than what i have become accustomed to.
29. cowsrockalot (Posts: 34; Member since: 02 Nov 2009)
Yea, but to me 4G means the Fourth Generation of data technology. We won't be seeing 4g speeds for a VERY long time.
7. pumah350 (unregistered)
@DXD- So what does the results mean? Sorry not really that geeky. I presume you mean that it was slow as hell and not 3g speeds?
11. Droid X Doug (unregistered)
The fastest download speeds I have seen on my Droid X have been in the range of 1.8 mbps (1,800 kbps). The worst download speed I have seen was 38 kbps on an Apple iPhone 4.
The point of my earlier post was that in the absence of sufficient capacity, a 4G claim is but a fairy tale - yes you might have a 4G network, but the effective speed of the network is worse than dial-up (the Apple iPhone 4 test result on the AT&T 3G network).
BTW, the Verizon store where I did the test was located in a retail street-type mall. So, yes there is potentially high network demand due to the presence of many users. But isn't that what AT&T was suffering under (high network demand) when the 3G-capable iPhone was released? I ran two iterations on the speed test to adjust for any failure due to hardware. Both test results were slow on the download speed.
10. smpdx (Posts: 127; Member since: 02 Nov 2010)
Yes thats slow. But its 3G and he was probably inside of a mall. Which means he wouldnt get a good reception anyways.
I dont know what this guy was expecting. Everyone knows 3G is slow. And everyone knows that speedtest.net is actually REALLY inacurrate a lot of times. If someone doesn't know at least those two things, they really shouldnt be blogging about the wireless industry.
12. Droid X Doug (unregistered)
I used speakeasy.net for the Verizon test. What is nice about speakeasy.net is that they have multiple servers that can be accessed for the speed test. The San Francisco server was closest, so I used that server for the test.
If you want to apologize for slow network speed, that is your choice. The wireless carriers are making claims about network speed and how 4G is so much faster than 3G. That may or may not be the circumstance. I certainly would not pay extra for a slower (or non-existent) network.
15. Sara (unregistered)
I assume 4G means the IPhone will be with Verizon as told by Phone Arena, in Dec. '10-or will it be at Verizon in Jan.'11? I am waiting for this IPhone to upgrade. Please let me know the latest release date..... SARA---in the Lower East Side of NYC
16. Droid X Doug (unregistered)
4G has no relation to the iPhone 4. The iPhone 4 is the 4th edition on the iPhone. Whether the iPhone 4 is available on Verizon is an issue between Apple, AT&T (there is an exclusive distribution agreement between Apple and AT&T) and Verizon. Most pundits say the exclusive agreement between Apple and AT&T expires some time in 2011. If there is no announcement by Verizon of the iPhone 4 being available on their network by end of 1Q (March 31st) 2011, it probably won't be available for the rest of 2011.
26. mr. droid (Posts: 278; Member since: 21 Aug 2010)
the iPhone is NOT a 4G phone. its simply 4th Generation. it is a 3G phone still.
19. skymitch89 (Posts: 1363; Member since: 05 Nov 2010)
LTE is an entry level 4th generation technology, so, even though it doesn't meet the speed requirements, it is still a 4G network. Those speeds are test speeds, which are usually higher than real world, there is always the possibility that the real world speed could be higher. I read that Verizon LTE was supposed to offer about 4x that of Sprint WiMax, (Instead of 3-6Mbps, it would get 12-24Mbps)
I take it that Verizon 4G launch is really near? Are these supposed to be micro-SIM or mini-SIM?
23. clevername (Posts: 1436; Member since: 11 Jul 2008)
I'm gonna take an educated guess here but if the whole card cutout is the size of a credit card like every other sim cards is then I would say it's too big to be micro sim. So mini sim is my answer/guess.

And the horse you rode here on, son. Dick....
21. Droid X Doug (unregistered)
I too was a bit surprised by the article telling us to get ready for download rates from 625 kbps to 1.5 mbps. If that is truly what should be expected from Verizon's 4G network, I have no need to 'upgrade' to 4G as I can get those speeds out of 3G for the most part (other than near Verizon stores in malls :-) ) already....
27. g (unregistered)
what it says is 600 to 1.5 megabytes not bits, there's a world of difference and you dont get even close to 600 kilobytes on 3g
28. Droid X Doug (unregistered)
@g could you provide a citation for your claim that the article was saying bytes instead of bits? Network speed ratings are generally referred to in bits, because binary digits are what are being moved.
30. g (unregistered)
Bytes are written with a capital B, while bits are usually reffered to with a lower-case b. And yeah bits bytes all is being moved, but when you download a song you see the traffic in bytes

The Amy Lee-fronted band kick Scotty McCreery out of the top spot on the U.S. album chart with their eponymous album.
After going on a hiatus for about four years, Evanescence come back big this year. The band fronted by Amy Lee claim No. 1 position on Billboard Hot 200 with their self-titled album "Evanescence" which sells a total of 127,000 copies in its opening week.
"What can I say, we're thrilled about it!" the female lead singer writes to MTV about their triumphant return soon afterwards. "We made an album that we're really proud of and now we get to watch it fly. We weren't expecting this and we're just so grateful to our fans."
This marks their second No. 1 album. Five years ago, the Grammy-winning band scored their first chart topper with their sophomore set "The Open Door" which bowed at No. 1 with 447,000. Its predecessor "Fallen", meanwhile, peaked at No. 3 on the U.S. album chart.
By sitting on the throne, Evanescene push aside last week's champ Scotty McCreery. The "American Idol" winner gives up the hot spot to occupy the fourth place. After selling 197,000 copies in its first week, he adds another 88,000 copies of "Clear as Day" (down 55%).
Adele holds firm at the runner-up slot by pulling in 111,000 copies of "21" (only down 1% from last week's number 112,000). Trailing behind her is this week's second-highest chart entry, Five Finger Death Punch. The hard rock band secure the third place with "American Capitalist" (91,000).
Scotty's fellow "Idol" alum Lauren Alaina rounds up the top 5 with her debut album "Wildflower" (69,000). This becomes the first time since 2008 when both the winner and the runner-up of the singing competition are on the top 5. Three years ago, David Cook and David Archuleta did so by sitting at No. 3 and 2 respectively.
The rest of the top 10 are filled with Tony Bennett's "Duets II" at No. 6, Lady Antebellum's "Own the Night" at No. 8, and Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter IV" at No. 9. New entries Ryan Adams' "Ashes & Fire" and Martina McBride's "Eleven" arrive at No. 7 and 10 respectively.
- Evanescence - "Evanescence" (127,000)
- Adele - "21" (111,000)
- Scotty McCreery - "Clear as Day" (88,000)
- Five Finger Death Punch - "American Capitalist" (91,000)
- Lauren Alaina - "Wildflower" (69,000)
- Tony Bennett - "Tony Bennett: Duets II" (55,000)
- Ryan Adams - "Ashes & Fire" (49,000)
- Lady Antebellum - "Own the Night" (47,000)
- Lil Wayne - "Tha Carter IV" (45,000)
- Martina McBride - "Eleven" (40,000)

Jennifer Lopez wears a bikini, displays that which her Mama gave her
After seeing these pics of Jennifer Lopez wearing a bikini in Italy, I think it goes without saying that she needs to challenge Kim Kardashian to an Ass Off. You know, settle things once and for all. To be honest, I don't exactly know what they'd have to settle, but I'm sure it has something to do with offsetting the moon's ability to affect the Earth's tides. I mean, look at that J-Butt. Asses don't have pecs!

SPOKANE, Wash. - Andy Landers looked down at the stat sheet on the table in front of him. The numbers were almost exactly what the longtime Georgia coach anticipated.
Yes, even the final score: Georgia 61, Stanford 59.
Jasmine Hassell scored six of her 13 points in the final 3 minutes and fourth-seeded Georgia reached the NCAA women's regional finals for the first time since 2004.
Georgia overcame three major scoring droughts, including falling behind 9-0, to oust the No. 1 seed from the Spokane Regional and end Stanford's hopes of reaching the Final Four for the sixth straight year.
Jasmine James led Georgia (28-6) with 16 points, including a pair of free throws with 23.5 seconds left that gave the Lady Bulldogs a 60-56 lead. It's the 11th trip to the regional finals in Landers long tenure at Georgia.
"As we came down the stretch, our players, I think figured out that they could make some plays and really did a nice job," Landers said.
"I think the thing that's so good about the comeback and going ahead is that each one of those five players did something that was really significant as we did that. And they did something really significant on each end of the floor."
Chiney Ogwumike led Stanford (33-3) with 26 points, but was held to eight points in the second half. She also had 12 rebounds.
Saturday night wasn't so much about getting even with the Cardinal, as it was about getting Georgia back to where it believes they belong.
"To finally make the next step and go to the Elite 8 and now to be going into another game to try to compete to go to the Final Four is definitely back to where Georgia basketball needs to be, trying to compete for a national championship," James said.
• Kentucky 69, Delaware 60: In Bridgeport, Conn., Kentucky coach Matthew Mitchell has his team one victory away from the school's first Final Four. The Wildcats had to overcome an incredible effort by Elena Delle Donne to get there.
Jennifer O'Neill scored 19 points and A'dia Mathies added 16 to help Kentucky hold off the Blue Hens regional semifinals, bringing to an end the stellar career of Delle Donne.
It's the second straight season that Kentucky (30-5) has advanced to the regional final and will play Connecticut.
"When we were here last year and go back and watch those games, I think we're more talented than the team last year," Mitchell said. "If we play really hard and make shots, we can beat either team."
The Wildcats would love to get down to New Orleans, the site the Final Four. It's the same city where the Kentucky men's team won the national championship last season.
"That's something, isn't it," Mitchell said. "We'd love the opportunity."
• Connecticut 76, Maryland 50: In Bridgeport, Conn., Breanna Stewart and Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis each scored 17 points, leading top-seeded Connecticut in the Bridgeport regional semifinals.
Stewart got help from fellow freshmen Moriah Jefferson, 10 points, and Morgan Tuck, eight points, in sending the top-seeded Huskies (32-4) to their eighth straight NCAA regional final.
Alyssa Thomas, who had averaged 28.5 points in the tournament, had 13 to lead Maryland, which finished its season at 26-8. The Terps' Tianna Hawkins and Chloe Pavlech each had 11 points.
UConn led 35-26 at halftime, then opened the second half on a 9-0 run.
UConn will be playing in a regional final for the 19th time. The Huskies are seeking their eighth national title.
• California 73, LSU 63: In Spokane, Wash., late.

Continental's IPO: Don't Rush In
Investing in airlines, as a hedge-fund investor once warned me, demands elaborate precautions: nothing short of garlic necklaces and voodoo incantations. So susceptible are airlines to every gust--rising fuel prices, slowing economic growth, stormy labor relations, and rotten weather--that the stocks seem to suit only the brave or the foolish.
Now, Continental Airlines (CAL ) is getting ready to offer investors a new way to prove themselves heroes or fools. In September, Continental aims to sell stock to the public in a unit called ExpressJet Holdings. ExpressJet runs Continental's fast-growing feeder airline, Continental Express, the nation's No. 2 regional--with routes to 113 cities, from Quebec to Ixtapa, Mexico. If all goes according to plan, six months or so after the deal, Continental will hand out the rest of its ExpressJet stock to its own stockholders, and ExpressJet will be on its own.
As Continental and underwriter Salomon Smith Barney have structured the spin-off, ExpressJet will be insulated from some of the vagaries of the airline biz. By mid-August, Continental (whose execs aren't commenting) had not estimated its price for the shares or specified how much of ExpressJet it hopes to sell. Yet from a look at Continental's preliminary securities filing, I think anyone interested in ExpressJet stock had better keep the garlic handy.
UP HIGH. Not that I foresee a crash. Revenue last year rose 30%, to $844 million. In this year's first quarter, it grew 33%. If Continental had set up and done the accounting for ExpressJet last year the way it does now, the regional would have posted an $84 million operating profit. With scores of new jets ordered for the next three years (chart) and with Continental having contracted to buy all of that capacity, ExpressJet has a good line on near-term growth. The contract also calls for Continental, not ExpressJet, to bear such risks as light loads, low fares, and high fuel prices.
So what's wrong? First, the fleet-use contract targets an operating profit margin for ExpressJet that financial statements indicate is 10%. Whether that's high, low, or just right, I don't know. The point is, at least through 2004, it won't vary much. If ExpressJet realizes a slimmer margin, Continental will "true up," or supplement, its payments to ExpressJet. If ExpressJet's margin exceeds the target, it will have to refund some fees. So, just as ExpressJet's risks are limited, so is its potential. Whether ExpressJet will price its stock high, compared with expected earnings, remains to be seen. But don't count on getting it at a discount.
The bigger worry facing investors is ExpressJet's continuing dependence on Continental. Yes, Continental aims to spin off its entire stake in ExpressJet. But as its largest customer, Continental will still wield huge influence through a seat on the board and a raft of contractual conditions, including a "most favored nation" clause. That gives Continental the right to enjoy any concessions ExpressJet might offer to attract business from another major airline. Yet at the same time, Continental is free to license the Continental Express name to other regionals. ExpressJet also can probably forget about being taken over at a nice premium. As long as Continental is ExpressJet's largest customer, a change in control would let it slash payments on its flights until ExpressJet's profit margin vanishes.
Just how much ExpressJet hopes to raise in the deal is unknown, but by now you can guess who gets the proceeds: Continental. ExpressJet is saddled with a debt to Continental of $552 million. Whatever ExpressJet raises in the initial public offering will go to pay that off. In addition, Continental is using the deal to lighten its own hefty debt load. It plans to give ExpressJet stock to its banker, Salomon, in exchange for taking $150 million in debt off its hands. Salomon then would resell those shares in the IPO.
It's hard to look at this deal without concluding that the chief beneficiary will be Continental. Investing in Continental may suit the brave. Chances are, ExpressJet's IPO is just for fools.

Thinking of putting together a high-quality, effective gym fitness routine? It sounds easy on paper, but what is required to get the most out of the body in the least amount of time? There are numerous factors to consider, but let's focus on the actual routine that would be used in this situation. Everyone is different and their bodies react differently, which has to be taken into consideration. Let's take a look at the best kind of routine to use when looking to get the most out of the body.
Body Weight Sets
A lot of people will begin their routine with weights and that might not be the best way to go about things. The best way to start is with body weight sets where weights are not being used at all.
You will just be using your body weight and lifting, pulling, and pushing it around. This is the best way to get results and gain those initial strength gains that can lead into better results with the weights.
You have to include a certain amount of push ups, chin ups, and pull ups into a routine. If it s chest day, you should be getting in at least 3 sets of push ups to begin.
Lift Heavy
This is important regardless of who you are and what your goals are. It doesn't matter, if you are looking to slim down. You should be lifting heavy and getting the muscle to work hard.
This will ensure the weight is lost faster because the amount of effort going in is higher. Lifting heavy is a great way to ensure the body is going all out at all times. Those who don't lift heavy tend to get mediocre results because they are always shooting under their potential.
A great routine has to have some form of cardio. The heart has to be pumping in order to get great results. It is far too easy for someone (especially those who are bulking) to start forgetting cardio. After all, they don't want to lose extra calories. However, the heart has to be trained too and this can only be done with cardio.
HIIT or 'high intensity interval training' is based around short bursts of activity and then resting in between. For example, you sprint for 30s and then rest for 1 minute. Do this for at least 10 minutes. This will help the heart get going and ensure the body does not lose muscle definition.
This is a routine that would work for anyone that wants to see their weight go down, body fat get cut, and to gain muscle definition as well. Of course, this gym fitness routine would only work out, if the person was willing to ensure they are eating right. If you don't eat right, you will never get the kind of results you want. You have to get rid of the alcohol and/or smoking along with all of the junk food present in your home. This is the only way to ensure you are getting the most out of the routine that has been crafted.
If you are thinking of going to the gym to get fit, this could be a way to start. Of course, you can schedule an appointment with a trainer to get the optimum routine for your goals.

The Flaming Fist, or Flaming Fists, was a mercenary company based in the city of Baldur's Gate on the Sword Coast, where its members served as city guards.[1] They also worked outside the city; their sphere of influence extending just south of Beregost but stopping before Nashkel.[citation needed]
The Flaming Fist Mercenary Company, as it was then called, was founded around 1345 DR by Eltan,[2] a formidable fighter and Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate.[3]
While the Fist's base of operations was in the city of Baldur's Gate, they had other forts and establishments in Anchorome, Chult and Tethyr.[4] The latter of which proved to be a source for recent hires by Duke Eltan during their decades-long civil war.[2]
By 1479 DR the Flaming Fists had changed from a mercenary group to the police and military force of Baldur's Gate.[1]

A Guide To Cleaning Your Sheets (For Single Guys And Lazy Girls)
We've always suspected that most guy's sheets didn't get properly laundered as often as we'd like. In the past, we've seen the stains (snot? cum? Doritos?) and tried to will ourselves to imagine we were covered in an invisible, full body shield of antibacterial gel where no microbes could harm us. A horrifying new study confirms our very worst imaginings of dust mites and fungal spores. It found that single dudes ages 18 to 25 only wash their sheets — wait for it — four times a year because they "didn't see the need" or "didn't care." That's once a quarter if he's feeling enterprising. Oh God, what if he's not!? We can't even think about it. Not that we always wash our sheet every two weeks as recommended by Martha Stewart, sometimes we're lazy too — not nearly THAT lazy, but still. For the single dudes and the laundry-hating ladies, here's a reminder about what needs to be done to keep your sheets from being absolutely disgusting (read: acceptable enough for people to want to sleep with you).
How To Tell If Your Sheets Are Dirty:
Lingering odor. Does it smell like something might have crawled under your mattress and died? Are your Dutch ovens not dispersing as quickly as they used to? Yeah, it miiiiiight be time to throw those bad boys in the washing machine.
Hot Tip: In a pinch, you can use linen spray to freshen up the smell of your bedding.
Stains. Whether it's bodily fluid or mustard (sometimes we want to eat a roast beef sandwich while watching "Breaking Bad" in bed, so sue us), this is always a good indicator that your bed could use some freshening up.
Hot Tip: Flip your pillows over every few days between washings to avoid your sea of drool conglomerating in one spot.
The appearance of any of the following: dandruff, blood, hair, semen, sweat outlines, skin flakes, crusty drool puddles. Seriously, it's time to wash your damn sheets.
Hot Tip: Buy multiple fitted sheets and put more than one on your bed every time you make it. That way, when you're pressed for time or feeling lazy, you can just take the top sheet off to reveal a pristine sheet underneath!
It's been two weeks since you last washed them. Even if you manage to avoid any of the above signs of uncleanliness (please tell us your secrets!), two weeks is generally a good timeline for sheet washing.
How To Wash Your Sheets:
Toss them in the machine. Throw your sheets into the washing machine with some nice-smelling detergent and wash in hot water. Tumble dry. Put back on the bed. Voila! Your life just got a million times better.
Hot Tip: Keep an extra set of sheets in your closet so you're not sheet-less while they're in the laundry bin.
Drop them off at the fluff and fold. Lazy launderers and washing machine-free folks can lug their sheets to a laundry service to get them cleaned, dried, and crisply folded. (Side note: we want to start an emo folk band and name it "Fluff & Fold." Don't steal our band name, OK?)
Hot Tip: If you really want to score some points with the ladies, iron your sheets. Even if the rest of your apartment is a cesspool of filth and detritus, this one little detail will make you seem like a classy, cultured man from a Dos Equis commercial.
