The TorquingPoint Review of 2011
Well, 2011 has certainly turned out to be an interesting year for cars. We've seen McLaren deliver their first MP4-12C's to customers, only to have them riddled with issues. There have been more concept cars with 'alternative' drivetrains than we can shake a stick at, and the horsepower race seems to be getting ever bigger and crazier.
Ford showed us a production Mustang which has 650bhp and will do 200mph – figures that were the sole reserve of Supercars worth hundreds of thousands of pounds just 5 years ago. At the other end of the scale we have every major car manufacturer showcasing an electric vehicle, proving that the technology may not be fully ready for the mainstream but is certainly coming.
Renault are leading the charge of the EV brigade (apologies for the pun) with 3 new models including the funky single seater Twizy. But they are really making headlines with the fact that they get around the battery life issue and cost of the batteries by having Renault EV owners lease the batteries monthly. That way the price of the car can be lower and owners need not worry about the cost of replacing the batteries in 5 years' time.
In Motorsport, we lost 2 greats – Dan Wheldon and Marco Simoncelli – and Sebastian Vettel took another F1 title with a few races to go.
In the Performance world, it seems as if 1000bhp is the new minimum for a Hypercar, and 300mph the goal. There have been numerous new Supercar company startups, time will tell if their photoshop renderings and fancily worded press releases will ever actually turn into a real car or not.
So overall it has been a good year, especially for TorquingPoint. Only 2 months old, yet getting more readers than we had hoped for at this stage, we thank each and every one of you for your continued support. So for now, we'll leave you with our TorquingPoint Car of the Year 2011.
There were many contenders for the TP.CoTY, including the McLaren MP4-12C, Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0, Lamborghini Aventador, Nissan GT-R, BMW 1M and more. But in the end the car that kept coming back in our thoughts, the one that showed so much promise to us, isn't even a production car (yet). The design is so utterly beautiful it would sell if it had a 1.0 engine, but it also happens to have nearly 400bhp which certainly helps. When this car hits the streets in production trim it will look almost identical to this concept and will take the market by storm.
So we give you the TP.CoTY 2011 – the Jaguar C-X16:

This mini-book is focused on sharing notes from my attendance to events in Italy since early 2018, along with background material that I think might be useful for the target audience, and some connecting-the-dots organizational development ideas.
Furthermore, as I am currently based in Turin, I will use it as my reference example to discuss specific data and then move onto the usual "connecting-the-dots" (also if some of the information was actually collected in Milan, a mere 50 something minutes by high-speed train): adapt to your location if needed…
This short book (or extended essay) is just part of a series of collected thoughts and analysis.
Focus: the impact of social and technological change on traditional management practices.
Aim: to raise informed questions, not to provide answers
Join the discussion on http://www.linkedin.com/in/robertolofaro
This series has just a common thread: repeating that "connect experience and knowledge to initiate change" approach, but focusing each time on a specific issue.

If you are a producer in Douglas County, then the VSP process impacts you! The development of the Douglas County Voluntary Stewardship Program (VSP) work plan is underway.
Foster Creek Conservation District has been designated the lead planning and implementation entity for the Douglas County VSP process. Foster Creek has convened a work group that is tasked with developing a plan that protects critical areas and improves the long-term viability of agriculture. The work group has been meeting once a month since late last summer time.
The work group has made great progress in the work plan development over the past couple of months. We have wrapped up our discussion on agricultural viability, what it means, and how we improve it. One of the exercises we did to accomplish this was a SWOT analysis, which is a discussion of the strengths, weakness, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) of agriculture in the county. This SWOT analysis was done for two reasons. The first was to more fully describe baseline agricultural conditions in Douglas County. The second was to better understand what agricultural viability means to Douglas County and how the VSP work plan can address it. From the SWOT analysis, the work group developed objectives to enhance agricultural viability. These objectives are: 1. Maintain or improve a vibrant agricultural economy, 2. Maintain or increase agricultural production, 3. Maintain or enhance land used for agricultural production, 4. Maintain or increase participation and conservation activities to enhance agricultural activities, 5. Provide adequate technical assistance and information, 6. Work with local, state and federal agencies to develop processes for regulatory and tax reform, and 7. Assess adequate agricultural infrastructure. The work group then developed 34 specific activities to meet these objectives.
The work group has now shifted gears and begun to discuss critical area protection. At the March meeting, the group decided on a philosophy for measuring success in critical area protection. In short, success will be judged by the amount of voluntary stewardship measures that are being undertaken by producers in Douglas County. For more information please visit the VSP webpage.
There is still plenty of work to be accomplished. Foster Creek invites all interested stakeholders to attend and participate in the work group meetings. The meetings are open to public involvement and comment, and commitment to serve on the work group is not required. The next VSP work group meeting will be held on Monday, May 15, at 6pm in the Hearing Room at the Superior Court of Douglas County Building, 203 S Rainier St, Waterville, WA 98858. Please contact Aaron Rosenblum, VSP coordinator, at firstname.lastname@example.com or 509-426-5990 for more information.

Two senior Samsung Group executives have offered to resign to take responsibility for the conglomerate's involvement in the graft scandal involving South Korean President Park Geun-hye, Yonhap news agency said, without citing sources.
The report said Vice Chairman Choi Gee-sung and President Chang Choong-gi have offered to resign. Both executives were identified as suspects by the South Korean special prosecution in a graft probe that led to Samsung Group leader Jay Y. Lee's arrest last week.
Yonhap did not say whether the executives have formally submitted their resignation or whether they will remain with the conglomerate in some other capacity. Samsung Group did not immediately comment on the report.

In the Yard
A nice sunny day! Still a little below freezing but their is hope for some warm weather in the next couple of weeks. The last of the snow will go. Here the animals are enjoying the sun by the shed. The hens are sitting at the picture window in the hen house enjoying the view. Daisy, the cow, always like to soak up the rays of sunshine. Lucy, the calf, is laying down no doubt thinking when she can next steal some milk from Daisy. Rosy the sow is loose also with the eight young pigs. They call come when I call, that can be a mistake!
I called the piglets up to the back porch. I sound like a supporter of the "Rasorbacks" . . . Soo, Wee! Here comes the pig parade. !
Here is the group feeding at the back porch. Poor Rosie is thin. Spring will see here beef up (pork up). I hope to breed her soon, if arrangements can be made.
Shortly after taking these pictures all the animals showed up at the front of the house. I am waiting to see if they will go back to the shed by themselves. It is nice and sunny in front of the house and their is a little grass showing they are feeding on. This weeks task is the string the electric fencing and try to confine the pigs. They have already been to the neighbours. Luckily, when I call. . .home they came trotting down the side of the road in single file. It is interesting the kind of control you can acquire over pigs with a promise of little good meal and a lovely back scratch. Sounds like a woman I knew once:)

About the venue
At first inspection I was eagerly searching to find out what amazing downtown San Francisco loft hosted this incredible event. To my surprise, this incredible swank, posh, and deliciously modern soiree was hosted at The Cooper Building in downtown Los Angeles.
The Cooper Building is retaking it's place in the fashion district as the place to been seen if you are of a creative and artistic fabric in Los Angeles. The building is a collection of design suites, offices, show rooms, and artistic lofts located at the corner of 9th and Los Angeles Streets in the heart of the fashion district. The Cooper Building has been around since 1927 and today it represents a grand integration of the fashion arts in all media - design, digital, photography, and textile - brilliant!
Ask the expert
If you are a "wedding aficionado" then you might have guessed that this artful decor was flawlessly executed by the one and only R. Jack Balthazar. The combination of textures is one of the key components to transforming a whitewashed industrial space into a modern affair that has all the style, glamor, and warmth that is a signature for this well-known design team.
The expansive windows and open-beam look that are associated with a loft space can be an incredible asset or a challenge - don't try and redesign your space, work with it. I love how the design team has gift-wrapped the walls in a silky silver fabric creating soft fluid motion in the space, yet they have left the windows alive with light. The choice of a more translucent fabric softens the space and works with it as opposed to trying to camouflage it.
The ceremony design deserves a standing ovation. The creativity behind the unique ceremony design is captivating, creative, and completely couture. The combination of tall bar-height chiavari chairs, modern suede covered stools, and even a great comfy couch is completely fun. I have to give note to the flowers. Lucite columns, tall cylindrical glass vases, and mirrors topped with a monochromatic cascading arrangement of white on white - this design could be considered boring, but not here. They have used a combination of tulips, hydrangea, and other white blossoms to create texture, depth, dimension, and fun - not just your ordinary white wedding design. Love it!

5 Types of Retailers that Could Be Threatened by Amazon Same-Day Delivery
As Amazon has announced it will collect sales tax in another eight states. But while this move has proven to be unpopular with consumers, it is seemingly also strategic. Upon collecting sales tax in certain states, Amazon is also then free to set up a physical presence without additional penalty; it will thus establish a network of distribution points across the country — which could enable affordable, widespread next-day and same-day shipping. In turn, this will fundamentally change how and why we shop.

text: stonheng 0 Posted June 16, 2018 Hello, I have limited programming experience and am looking to automate a fairly simple task as follows: 1) make an application active (I don't need it to automatically open the application) 2) Enter a key stroke (such as Control-F2) to start a process 3) Pause for a short period of time (say 3 seconds) 4) Then hit the Enter key; pause again (3 seconds) 5) Repeat step 4 several more times (but the length of pause may vary in a few spots) I would appreciate any help to do this. And if possible it would be great to get the full step by step instructions because I am starting from zero knowledge of AutoIt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I worked pretty hard because after today I won't be able to do any heaving lifting for a few weeks - spinal fusion at C6/7 etc.
Just before the weekend I received a box of plants from the Diggers Club, comprising: 2 x Natal Plum, Acerola Cherry, Stevia (sugar plant) a sugar replacement, Yacon, Comfrey, Dwarf Apple Tropical Beauty and some seeds. All edible, and the plum, cherry & apple specifically suited to our climate in Brisbane.
|Natal Plums
I got all the others planted at all (no heavy digging soon remember).
I also constructed the second raised bed. After leveling the site (just where the edges would sit, not the whole area) it took 5 minutes at most to put together with the help of SMD. Thanks to all that preliminary work I did last week.
Then I had to put the protective edge (split irrigation pipe) along the top. It was so much easier this time with a brand new hooked blade in a proper Stanley Knife! However, care is recommended.

And the result:
Hope you had a happy Easter!

As kids reach the transition from elementary to middle school, they begin to "experience the journey." We want them to see that their faith and their everyday life are not separate.
Many people have traveled on Route 66, the iconic highway in the southwestern part of the United States. With a play on words, we have created Route 56, a place where we can walk with 5th and 6th graders as they experience the faith journey.
The Bible comes alive in the creative and highly interactive Route 56 environment. During these two years 56ers take a chronological walk through the Bible. We encourage them to participate in large group and gender-based small groups where they can discuss the lesson and build relationships. By learning and experiencing God's truth, they realize his impact in their everyday lives.
Route 56 meets Sunday mornings during the 10:45 am service in the Warehouse.
We're always looking for people who have a heart for kids & students in CCC's Family Ministry. If you would like more information, we would love to hear from you! We do need your help and our Family Ministry leaders are happy to answer any questions you may have. If you'd like to make a difference one child or student at a time please fill out our FAMILY MINISTRY VOLUNTEER form.

Sanibel Captiva Community Bank hasn't budged since it captured the lead in our rankings of the best nationally available CD rates on Nov. 11.
This small bank with three branches on Florida's southwest coast continues to pay 0.95% APY with a $1,000 minimum deposit.
That's two-tenths of a point more than anyone else because the next best rates offered at the time that Sanibel Captiva took the lead have all disappeared. Some banks lowered their rates a little, while others fell off the charts completely.
Four banks are now paying 0.75% APY:
Goldwater Bank requires a minimum deposit of $10,000. It has a single location in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Hudson City Savings Bank requires a minimum deposit of $5,000. This East Coast bank has 130 branches in New Jersey, New York and Connecticut.
Nexity Bank requires a minimum deposit of $1,000. It is an online bank headquartered in Birmingham, Ala.
VirtualBank requires a minimum deposit of $10,000. This online bank is a Division of Lydian Private Bank, based in Palm Beach, Fla.
Two banks are paying 0.70% APY:
MetLife Bank requires a minimum deposit of $25,000. This online bank is owned by the insurance giant.
OneWest Bank requires a minimum deposit of $1,000. It has 82 locations in Southern California.
These banks qualify for our rankings by imposing no restrictions on who can buy their CDs either online or through the mail.
See how these returns compare with CD rates from scores of other banks in our database.

Facebook is so desperate for engagement, it's spamming users via their 2FA numbers
Facebook is feeling lonely these days.
The social media behemoth has seen a decline in traffic in recent weeks along with millions of users leaving its platform, and it appears to be taking rather drastic measures to win them back. Specifically, spamming the hell out of them in a most unfortunate place.
SEE ALSO: The time has come to remove Facebook from your life
So says one account holder, Gabriel Lewis, who tweeted that Facebook texted "spam" to the phone number he submitted for the purposes of 2-factor authentication. And no, he insists he did not have mobile notifications turned on.
What's more, when he replied "stop" and "DO NOT TEXT ME," he says those message showed up on his Facebook wall. Read more…

The Sea
There's only one way to describe the New York premiere of Edward Bond's 1973 play: A complete washout. To steal (and modify) a line from Pauline Kael, director Scott Alan Evans directs this production--which could have been a very promising endeavor--as if he had never seen a play before. Rather than mining an intriguing plot (the aftermath of a deadly shipwreck and its effect on the locals in 1907 coastal England) for any real kinetic spark, he has the actors aimlessly wander around the stage, occasionally breaking to rearrange a few chairs and dressers that act as the scenery. Bond's language is very particular--it is heightened to the point of farce, even during the play's more serious moments--and only a handful of the people in the large cast seem to understand how it should be executed. The general cluelessness of the rest caused an uncomfortable silence to permeate throughout the evening. Highest praise goes to Gregory Salata, terrifically playing the stock role of a wise and misunderstood outsider, and lighting designers Mary Louise Geiger and Lucrezia Briceno, who kept it bright enough so that those who remained after intermission didn't fall asleep.

Turkey. Operational highlights. Working environment
- Kathryn Booth
- 2 years ago
- Views:
1 Operational highlights Almost 15,000 people approached UNHCR in Turkey to seek asylum in 2011, a 75 per cent increase in the number of new applications over the previous year. The situation in the Syrian Arab Republic drove more than 22,000 people to flee to the Turkish province of Hatay in 2011, with close to 10,000 still there at the end of the year. Turkey declared a temporary protection regime for all Syrians seeking protection in the country. Overall, the protection environment in Turkey has improved. Draft asylum legislation was submitted for endorsement by the Government before being sent to Parliament for adoption. The Government again permitted the waiving of residence fees for most asylum-seekers, and allowed UNHCR to gain access to asylum-seekers in detention as well as in the transit zone at Istanbul s Ataturk Airport. UNHCR made 5,000 refugee status determination (RSD) decisions. At the intergovernmental event in Geneva in December 2011, Turkey pledged to broaden its protection space by ratifying the 1954 Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons and the 1961 Convention on the Reduction of Statelessness, to adopt its first asylum law, and to provide temporary protection to Syrians fleeing violence in their country. UNHCR submitted around 6,500 refugees for resettlement, among the highest number of annual submissions so far from Turkey. Working environment In view of Turkey s geographic limitation to the 1951 Refugee Convention, UNHCR undertakes RSD for non-europeans. However, Turkey provides non-european refugees with temporary asylum, in principle pending a solution for them elsewhere. Almost all asylum-seekers and refugees in Turkey live in urban settings, save for the Syrian nationals under temporary protection who are hosted in camps (tented settlements or container cities). Turkey has advanced a number of positive developments, including in terms of legislation, following the establishment of the Asylum and Migration Bureau (AMB) under the Ministry of the Interior (MOI) some years ago. UNHCR was invited to participate in working groups and has contributed to the drafting of laws on asylum, which were in the final stages of preparation in 2011 prior to being sent to Parliament. The unrest in the Syrian Arab Republic drove more than 22,000 people to cross into the Turkish province of Hatay in 2011, with close to 10,000 still there at the end of The UN Country Team designated UNHCR as the lead agency for coordinating activities in Hatay. UNHCR urged the central authorities to establish a legal framework for Syrians asking for protection in Turkey, and welcomed the UNHCR Global Report
2 Government s decision in October 2011 to declare a temporary protection regime for them. UNHCR coordinated with the MOI and assisted in the relocation of persons of concern (about 2,000) who were residing in Van at the time of the earthquakes in October and November Achievements and impact Main objectives and targets UNHCR s objectives in Turkey were to advance the protection environment in the urban settings and to maximize the protection space available. The Office aimed to achieve these goals through close liaison with central authorities in Ankara, local authorities in the cities and a network of partners and NGOs. Favourable protection environment UNHCR has seen a marked reduction in cases of of asylum-seekers from Turkey in the past few years. UNHCR registered only one such case in There has also been a substantial increase in the number of persons permitted to access the asylum procedure from detention. Following interventions by UNHCR with the Turkish authorities and further to guidance from authorities, more than 90 per cent of these cases were granted access to the national procedure. UNHCR welcomed the decision of the Turkish police to start taking applications for asylum from persons arriving at Istanbul s airport. In addition, capacity-building activities and support by UNHCR helped police officials to increasingly address protection issues in the context of mixed migration flows. According to governmental statistics, 99 per cent of those claiming asylum from removal centres were released and granted access to the relevant procedures. The MOI and other relevant ministries received legal support from UNHCR in drafting the Foreigners and International Protection Law and secondary legislation. Several joint missions and capacity-building activities were conducted in cooperation with the MOI s Asylum and Migration Bureau as well as the General Directorate for Security which improved the quality of the national RSD procedure. UNHCR also strengthened its cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) in developing protection policies that have an impact at the regional level. Fair protection processes UNHCR made 5,000 decisions in regular RSD procedures, covering more than 10,000 asylum-seekers. It achieved its target with regard to the time taken for refugee status determination (RSD), limiting waiting periods at first instance and at the appeal stage to eight months each. The majority of first instance decisions were issued within six months, and the appeal backlog was eliminated. However, the unanticipated 75 per cent increase in new asylum-seekers later in the year made it difficult for UNHCR to maintain reasonable waiting periods for registration and RSD. The number of satellite cities where refugees reside continued to grow, reaching 51, which posed a serious challenge for outreach activities through NGOs, as they are currently present in only 22 of these locations. The reduction of residence permit ( fees in 2011 was an important step in improving the living conditions of people of concern. Persons of concern Type of Population Origin Total Of whom assisted by UNHCR Per cent female Per cent under 18 Refugees Iraq 7,100 7, Islamic Rep. of Iran 3,000 3, Afghanistan 2,700 2, Somalia 1,100 1, Various Asylum-seekers Iraq 3,700 3, Islamic Rep. of Iran 2,600 2, Afghanistan 2,400 2, Somalia Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan Syrian Arab Rep Occupied Palestinian Territory Various Stateless Stateless people Others of concern Syrian nationals granted temporary protection by the 9, Government of Turkey Various Total 35,810 25, UNHCR Global Report 2011
3 A Syrian refugee girl in front of the family tent in Boynuyogun tent city, in Hatay province. UNHCR / M. CORABATIR Basic needs and services Thanks to normative improvements, the school attendance rate among children aged 6 to 17 years increased by approximately 17 per cent compared to UNHCR supported the most vulnerable refugees with subsistence allowances, assistance for temporary accommodation and sanitary materials as well as medical screening, basic treatment and medicines. UNHCR supplied the Turkish Red Crescent Society with tents (2,000), blankets (10,000) and bed mats (10,000). These supplies were initially meant for the Syrian arrivals in Hatay, but were released to help cope with the earthquake in Van. Later in the year, UNHCR donated a further 2,000 tents and 40,000 blankets, bringing the total donations in 2011 to 4,000 tents, 50,000 blankets and 10,000 bed mats. Durable solutions As formal local integration was not procedurally available, resettlement continued to be the main durable solution available to non-european refugees in Turkey. More than 6,800 persons were submitted for resettlement in 2011, with acceptance in the first submission maintained at 90 per cent. Only seven refugees in Turkey requested UNHCR to facilitate their repatriation in 2011, while 241 returned spontaneously. Prevailing conditions in the main countries of origin were not conducive to voluntary return. External relations The designation of UNHCR as lead agency for the Syrian situation enhanced the public perception of the Office as a credible interlocutor with both expertise and accurate information. This has contributed to creating an environment of understanding, improving dialogue and facilitating access to people of concern. It also helped to improve understanding and awareness of the situation of non-syrians who have sought protection in Turkey. Logistics and operational support UNHCR supported its partners operations in Turkey by verifying standards of assistance, ensuring consistency with organizational objectives and policies, project monitoring and financial reporting. The Office facilitated programme delivery by overseeing implementing partners financial planning, monitoring and control. Constraints The absence of a legal framework for asylum continued to be a constraint in managing protection and assistance for asylum-seekers and refugees in Turkey. The absence of a national institution focused exclusively on asylum remains a challenge, although in part overcome by constructive relationships with other national entities. Financial information Requirements increased sharply in 2011 to cover registration and RSD, the influx from the Syrian Arab Republic and the response to the earthquake in Van. The funds provided helped UNHCR to ensure protection delivery, deal with unpredictable developments, maintain its credibility vis-à-vis the national authorities, preserve asylum space and strengthen practical cooperation with different governmental departments. UNHCR Global Report
4 Organization and implementation UNHCR s operations in Turkey were handled by its Country Office in Ankara, Field Office in Van and field units in Istanbul and Silopi. Following the series of strong earthquakes in Van, activities there were suspended temporarily and some of the staff transferred to Ankara. UNHCR s presence in 2011 Number of offices 4 Total staff 139 International 8 National 77 JPOs 1 UNVs 26 Others 27 Working with others UNHCR worked with the General Directorate of Consular Affairs in the MFA and the General Directorate for Security within the MOI, as responsible entities for asylum matters. The Office also collaborated closely with the Asylum and Migration Bureau of the MOI. Strong relations were maintained with the Ministries of Labour, Health, and Education as well as the Social Solidarity Foundation, the Social Services and Child Protection Directorate, and civil society. UNHCR s main implementing partners the Association for Solidarity with Asylum-Seekers and Migrants (ASAM) and the Human Resources Development Foundation (HRDF) provided refugees with psychosocial counselling and assistance in gaining access to their rights. They also conducted outreach activities and undertook protection interventions. Active cooperation was maintained with other UN agencies. For the Syrian situation, UNHCR is the lead agency for planning and coordination among the UNCT members. UNHCR worked closely with IOM and ICMC to facilitate resettlement departures, as well as on migration, asylum and trafficking issues. 6,500 refugees submitted for resettlement, mainly to the United States, but also to Canada, Australia, Norway and Germany. Unmet needs 64 per cent of targeted children of concern in urban areas were supported to attend primary education. Financial and medical assistance were kept to the bare minimum. With the increase in number of satellite cities as well as the number of persons of concern, the presence of implementing partners can ensure an outreach in only less than half of the satellite cities.

Turkey kept its borders open to receive some 22,000 Syrians fleeing violence in their country, while immigration police at Istanbul s airport started accepting asylum applications. Important headway was made in the area of facilitating the education of refugee children. Advancement in the areas of self-reliance and livelihoods will be further concentrated on in UNHCR reached one of the highest figures of resettlement submissions in a year with around 300 UNHCR Global Report 2011

Big Facebook Event Tomorrow – Rumors and Speculation
As many of you may have already read in the news, Facebook is holding a launch event tomorrow to announce new initiatives.
Lots of speculation around this event, including a Facebook phone – codenamed Buffy. But one thing is clear that there is some significant announcement that Facebook is going to make tomorrow, as Facebook does not usually hold major press conferences at its headquarters.
- Facebook is holding a press event at its headquarters on Tuesday at 10am PST
- They have not disclosed what will be announced
- Facebook has indicated the announcement is a "big deal" and most are speculating it involves mobile
- This is the first media gathering the company has hosted since it's Gifts announcement in November
Speculation from credible sources:
Facebook Phone (most talked about theory) — speculation from TechCrunch, Forbes
- Unclear whether it would be a proprietary FB branded device or a new Facebook OS for mobile
- The rumored OS, codenamed "Buffy," is thought to be built around Android
- The hardware, if it exists, is rumored to be developed by HTC
- Some speculate it could be a low-end to middle range phone built for the developing country market
Facebook Search – speculation from TechCrunch
- Zuckerberg had been vocal about his interest in expanding FB's internal search functionalities
- This would be an opportunity for FB to further monetize it's platform, especially in mobile
- Could enhance/integrate with the recently released Facebook Nearby feature – Facebook's latest push for small businesses and friend recommendations – perhaps in the form of a web interface or standalone mobile app
- Would likely be an enhanced functionality with the existing platform rather than an entirely new engine
Expansions on Facebook Gifting – speculation from Forbes
- Further monetize the platform with selling of physical goods
Stronger push towards gaming – speculation from Forbes
- As FB's biggest partner in gaming (Zynga) is dying, FB may be looking to start developing its own games to satisfy its dedicated audience of gamers
Instagram enhancements – speculation from Forbes
- Since spending $1 billion to purchase Instagram, FB has done little with to integrate with the photo-app so far; this may be their first announcement of deeper integration
Greater integration with automobiles – speculation from Forbes, TechCrunch
- May not be a coincidence that the announcement is scheduled right after the North American International Auto Show
- Theories include a Facebook-integrated car that enables seamless FB "check-ins" as you drive or a version of Facebook Messenger for cars (synced with Bluetooth)
Additional theories:
- Redesigning "Notes" to take on Tumblr
- Creating a standalone feed for different content verticals
- An easier user experience to navigate and find things on Timeline
- A video chat competitor to Google Hangouts
- New advertising channels
- http://www.businessinsider.com/techcrunch-is-kind-of-sort-of-reporting-that-facebook-will-announce-a-phone-2013-1
