Apple iPad mini With Retina Display
Beautifully built. Fast. Sharp screen. Excellent app options. Cellular version works on all carriers.
- Cons Expensive. Not as easy to hold with a single hand as narrower small-screen tablets.
Bottom Line
The new iPad mini has a super-sharp Retina display and packs all of the power of the iPad Air into a more portable package.
The new Apple iPad mini With Retina display ($399 to $829) is just a shrunken iPad Air. It's so similar to Apple's flagship tablet that your decision will pretty much be completely based on size and price. Like the Air, this is one of the slimmest and best-built tablets you'll find anywhere. It's an absolute pleasure to use. But unlike the large-screen Air, the iPad mini has many viable small-tablet competitors that are much less expensive, making it less of a must-buy and more of a luxury purchase.
The mini is so similar to the Air, check out our iPad Air review for full details.
Physical Design and Wireless
The new mini is superficially identical to the old one. If you look really closely, you'll find that it's ever so slightly thicker (.01 inch) and ever so slightly heavier (by less than an ounce) to accommodate a larger battery for the new high-res screen. At 7.87 by 5.3 by .29 inches (HWD) and 11.68 ounces, it'll still fit in old iPad mini cases.
The difference between the mini and the Air is really now about size and price, not weight. I just held both tablets in my hands, and now that the Air is only four ounces more, the weight difference between the two tablets doesn't feel meaningful.
The mini still has the 4:3 aspect ratio which makes it compatible with iPad apps, but noticeably thicker—and less usable one-handed—than the competing Google Nexus 7 and Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 7". Its metal-and-glass construction is still tightly elegant, with a shiny chamfered edge around the corner. The narrow side bezel echoes the iPad Air's, and like the Air, it comes in silver and space gray.
The 7.9-inch, 2,048-by-1,536-pixel IPS LCD touch screen is bright and sharp. It's the exact same resolution as the iPad Air, but in a higher pixel density—324ppi to the Air's 253, almost the same density as the iPhone 5S. All of the screen elements are slightly smaller than they are on the Air, something you notice in productivity apps with lots of tiny screen elements like iPhoto. They're still usable, but you need slightly sharper eyes and fingers than you do on the big iPad.
The mini comes in a dual-band, 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi version and a universal cellular version that works with all U.S. carriers. Every mini is unlocked, even if it comes with a SIM card installed, Apple told me. Wi-Fi performance was good, but not quite as good as the iPad Air. Testing against a Meraki MR16 router through a metal door, I saw 13-14Mbps down on the mini but 18-19Mbps down on the Air. Bluetooth 4.0 is also on board; the cellular version, but not the Wi-Fi-only version, has GPS.
Battery life was 6 hours, 8 minutes playing video with the screen set to max brightness. That's better than the Kindle Fire, but not as good as the Nexus, and it's just about the same as the iPad Air.
Performance and Multimedia
The iPad mini has a 1.3GHz Apple A7 processor, the same speed as the iPhone 5s and slightly slower than the Air's 1.4GHz. It scored slightly slower on the Geekbench and Sunspider benchmarks than the Air did, but matched the Air's result on the Browsermark browser test and on the GFXBench graphics test. Both tablets are faster than the Nexus 7. Although Amazon's Kindle Fire HDX outpaces the iPads on graphics and processor tests, the iPads' Safari browser showed superior results on the browser tests.
The slight slowdown didn't visibly affect app performance, and both of the new iPads are much faster than previous models. High-end, accelerometer-based games like Asphalt 8: Airborne and Need for Speed: Most Wanted are actually more playable here than on the Air, because it's easier to handle and tilt the smaller device. iPhoto and iMovie also work smoothly.
The M7 motion coprocessor also makes an appearance here. Apple showed me how diary app Day One, for instance, can monitor how much you walk or travel with the iPad in your bag.
iOS is still a simple grid of icons that is passionately focused on touch. And iCloud remains an important component to the OS, especially for backing up your data. Read our in-depth iOS 7 reviewfor the full details.
The mini's 5-megapixel main camera and 1.2-megapixel front camera are almost exactly the same as the big iPad's. I noticed that when shooting side by side, the big iPad sometimes selected slightly higher ISOs—64 as opposed to 50, 500 as opposed to 400—making the big iPad's photos a little brighter, but just a touch noisier. The HDR mode also still doesn't do much; a bright sky will blow out in any image. I'm really splitting hairs here, though. These are very good cameras, for a tablet.
Like the Air, the Mini has a pair of bottom-ported speakers. While the speaker grilles are smaller than the Air's, they generated almost exactly the same volume: 86 or 87 decibels at six inches. Also like on other iPads, if you want to play your video on a TV you can use a $49 HDMI adapter cable or Apple's proprietary wireless streaming system, AirPlay.
Also like the Air, the mini comes in 16, 32, 64, and 128GB models, starting at $399 and adding $100 each time you double your capacity. The 128GB tablet has 115GB free for your files.
Comparisons and Conclusions
If iPads were the only tablets, you'd be able to make your decision here completely based on size. I prefer the iPad Air to the mini because I think that once something isn't truly handheld or pocket-sized (in other words, wider than a Nexus 7 or a Kindle), a roomier view on the world and larger touch targets trump slightly better portability. But that's just a taste issue.
The bigger concern is that the mini's small-tablet competitors all cost much less, and they're also great devices. The $199 Amazon Kindle Fire HDX is beautifully built, with a gorgeously sharp screen and a fast Web browser. The $229 Google Nexus 7 is even more portable than the mini and has a competitive app selection. The $359 Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0comes with a pressure-sensitive stylus; an equivalent stylus for the iPad costs at least $80 extra.
Yes, I made the same argument last year. It gets a little tougher this year because this year's mini is much nicer than last year's; the processor and screen are both much, much better. But the competition's gotten better, too.
So you're paying $170 extra here (up from last year's $120 difference) to get iOS apps rather than Android apps. If you're an iPhone user, or you're attracted by unique iOS exclusives like the Infinity Blade series of games, Toca Boca kids' apps, or the iWork office suite, that investment will probably be worth it. But I think all of those apps play even better on the big iPad. If you're looking for cross-platform applications like Kindle book reading, comics reading, casual games, or Web browsing, you can get them on a great tablet that costs a lot less. That makes the iPad mini a very highly rated tablet, but still not quite our Editors' Choice.

The Story of Bunnychow: Truck, bread and moving beyond curry
The latest endeavour by Shanti Hospitality, involves a truck, some bread and some big global flavours. If you put them all together, you get 'Bunnychow', a new and intriguing fast food concept, recently launched in the UK. The interesting creation is essentially a hollowed out loaf of bread stuffed with an array of different fillings including 'Bangcluck Chicken', which is flavoured with a Thai inspired spicy ginger sauce, succulent chicken and an Asian slaw, or 'Pork n' Pickle' slow roasted pork and homemade pickles or the signature 'Monkey Gland Meatball' cooked in a South African, BBQ inspired monkey gland sauce. The Bunnychow received investment from Shanti Hospitality in 2013, and although it's a new concept in the UK market, it actually originates from Durban, South Africa in the 1940s.
CEO of Bunnychow, Atholl Milton explains, "This is a South African concept which was created by the workers so that they could carry their daily curry to the sugar plantation fields, by using a loaf of bread, as the vessel for carrying the filling. It was a good source of protein as well as carbs and helped them get through the day. Bunny chow is now a legendary dish in Durban, South African and we loved the idea of using the loaf as a vessel for a range of exciting fillings, to keep the workers of London sustained throughout the day. In 2013, we developed the bunnychow food truck which roamed around London showing up at events or festivals. This really tested the product. Soon after, we found there was a huge interest in Bunnychow so we opened up our very own shop in Boxpark."
Bunnychow's first stationary appearance thus came in the heart of Shoreditch. Housed in adapted shipping containers, Boxpark offers a bunch of pop-up shops and global street food spots, the perfect spot to ensure Bunnychow is completely at home.
Speaking about the strategy to grow this new business, Milton said, "Since we launched, we have received great feedback from the customers and the press with the likes of Olive Magazine and Charles Campion hailing it as a key trend for 2014. We have finally secured a location in Soho that will become our year-round equivalent to Pret-a-Manger, where you can get hot food, as well as breakfast. The roll out strategy is then to set up 7-10 of these in the next few years. There will be a variety of food on offer from breakfast through to dinner and we're looking to launch our own branded products, in-store such as our range of healthy, freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices. It's also important that we continue to evolve and adapt the menu with the seasons and with an awareness of new trends and flavour profiles.
Asking Milton what compelled Shanti Hospitality to choose this particular type of cuisine, he said, "Well, nobody has really done it in a big way, over here. A lot of people are doing sandwiches, pizza, burgers but that is everywhere. Bunny chow is something which has a tradition to it and a history to it. You can also adapt this type of food to the local culture and change the flavours according to the season. Also the bread itself can be varied to appeal to different types of customers, for instance gluten-free.
As fast food goes, Bunnychow increasingly attracts many lovers and Shanti Hospitality hopes to fulfil the demand by expanding the company across central London. Milton said, "At the moment our concentration is on launching individual outlet concepts such as Wardour Street in Soho, and from there, we'll assess the market and move forward, store-by-store."
Bunnychow received investment from Shanti Hospitality, a part of C&C Alpha Group but has been conscious not to blow the budget on traditional advertising and marketing. Milton said the secret is, "we decided to take a more untraditional route in the sense of talking about the brand. So, for example, we've used social media to get people talking about Bunnychow, taking pictures of it on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, that has all created a huge buzz, which has been really encouraging".
If the Bunnychow tweets, 'likes' and Instagrams are anything to go by, this new food phenomenon is set to be deadly competition to all existing fast-food joints!

I was thinking the very same thing. Maybe they didn't want people to forget about them amidst all the hype that Warhammer is starting pick up. I believe their release date is around Sept 18th, which lines up closely with "the coming weeks" give or take a few weeks or this new content patch.

Cut Me Up by Brion Gysin
Cut Me Up by Brion Gysin
Nothing here was written "under marijuana" or "under" anything else. Billie Holiday and Baudelaire have borne witness that nothing was ever written or sung better under any drug. Hachichi I am and I bow respectfully and gratefully to my Principal as any Client should (not _must_). My Principal is no Monkey— no Machine. My Principal is called Out. I am a poor Singer but I can write out all of the Song I know in two ways and on both sides of this paper. Who runs may read. Learn to read by improving your running. Dig deep what Burroughs has to say against junk. Mektoub— It Was Written. Dig the difference between all the Junks acting on numerical proliferation and pot, art or whatnot acting outside of number. Outside of number is the only way out. The only way out to space. If you dont want out you don't want space and the less you get until you have none at all. The Ins want space for themselves because they never but never get enough of it to be comfortable. THEY CAN'T. They way out is Here and it CAN BE WRITTEN. You can start writing it now by cutting up this whole book. Add what you like and make a new book of it. We have called
this method the CUT-UPS EVER SINCE WE FIRST STARTED ON THEM and the name is as good as any. They are not a new Discovery. Tristan Tzara, the Man from Nowhere, divined Dada out of a dictionary with a knife, pulled words out of a hat and might well have burned the Louvre if he hadn't diverted into the Communist Panic by the Art Wing of the Freudian Conspiracy calling itself Surrealism under Andre Breton. We don't want to see it happen again. Above all I don't— I the Man from Nowhere negotiated like a Tangier Space Draft on a Swiss bank.
There is no game without two players. In other words, it could. But this is the Open Bank— these monkeys hear a lot and see a lot and talk almost all they know. Anyhow, here is the gimmick. Cut up everything in sight. Make your whole life a poem. You can't lose, man. You can't lose because you've got nothing to lose but that worthless junk you're sitting on. Get out of that blue frigidaire and Live. You'll know everything. You'll hear everything. And you'll see everything that's going on. Really make the entire scene. Not many chicks will. Say they know plenty already. They do. Try it. Be a Poet. Be a Man. Never forget that Grandaddy Burroughs invented the adding machine when the more efficient abacus had been used for thousands of years in Asia. Yesterday a thousand years ago, Hassan Sabbah, a Persian by birth and school-chum of Omar Khayyam, walked by accident (as if there were any accidents) into the studios of Radio Cairo to find all the cats bombed. He realized like a flash that _he_ could SEND, TOO. He took the mike to an unheathed pent-house called Alamut near the Caspian. Called the Aga Khan today, his original station nearly a thousand years ago could broadcast from Alamut to Paris with Charlemagne on the house phone and as far as Xanadu East. Today the same lines have been proliferating machine-wise and a stray wire into the room I am in… Well, you figure it out. Try it yourself. Here is how you do it: Let's see, now. No, I'm not stalling. Common sense tells you that words are meant to mislead. Especially in these areas. It's about like this: Just talk to yourself for a minute. You hear that little voice? Well, now argue with yourself: take two sides of a question. Dig? That's already a line. Do it like a phone call. Broadcast something. I hesitate to advise, because I know only for me, that something pretty saucy will often get you a sharp answer. Realize that it is an answer when you hear it and not just you. You first party or any party may be hard to identify but just go on listening. Soon plenty of voices will come in and soon you will be able to call out. Don't put this down. Lots of people want this, need it and are damned well getting it by themselves. This ain't no monopoly, lady. Shove off, you! Well, as I was saying before I was so brashly interrupted… Stop and Listen. The state called reverie just before sleep is a good place to start. You may find the head-shrinkers putting this down, they will. If you work on some mechanical job this should be a snap for you.
Artists and intellectuals BEST learn a method best called LOOK AWAY. You will find that you are broadcasting at all hours without knowing it. How else do you think ideas "get around", man. Well, call me any time you want and just identify yourself when you call. Name and address, please. I'll be glad to talk to you about this or anything else you have in mind. Crazy, man, crazy. We need this. We have to have this or, frankly, fellow pale-faces, we are SCREWED. I'm not putting that down, either, but I think I know what it means. Do you? Every non-paleface is on the line FREE OF CHARGE. Pale-face have the CHARGE but the line is not free for him. The TOLL has, historically, be enormous. THERE IS NO NEED TO HEAR THAT NOISE AGAIN. We went through the Ice Age in the Cave and came out to hunt sickly-pale like Lazarus or any Haitian zombie with a Reactive mind built in by our women who sent us. Women-set Motherlovers, to a man. It must have been great in that Cave— or that's the way they put it. Me, myself, now… All anybody was ever supposed to want to do was to get back IN. Well, if you to get IN instead of OUT then SPACE is not for you and you are going to get less and less of it until you don't have any at all. The INs always say MINE. I put that down. It's EVERYBODY'S space and there's plenty of it. A point in space is an argument place says Wittgenstein. "No two anythings can occupy the same spacetime position," mutters Burroughs. Go on. Who says Time? It is the power of every hand to destroy us and are beholden to every one we meet, he doth not kill us. BUT The river hath more need of the fountain than the fountain of the river… the swarming sting of the sun has ceased over the endless lakes of lilac light burning away to a fiery rose on the dunes running like molten orange-gold. The day-tortured eye can no longer support. Before it died behind the clenched lids the sun wrenched itself from the sky and fell sickeningly over the edge of the world. Blues deepen like vertigo into permanganate purples. An icy chill weeps the very length of darkness after sun, cracking the desert rocks like a rattle of fire across the Sahara. Step into a Grain of Sand. It is Everybody's Earthly Kingdom bathed in the white light. You can get the light with prayer, mescaline, fasting, sex and know where to find it again when you want it. Praktice makes perfect. Neither prayer nor mescaline nor anything else makes it happen. The light is there. Myself, I think that our troubles have only started and now that we have cut you in on this you are in on it whether you like it or not. You are on our side now that you have read this far and you are sitting pretty. This has taken you out of the area of words. If they throw words at youcutthemup and throw them back. If you want to disappear… come around for private lessons. Free. Painters have it made. Dangerous ground. Picasso can make a rainbow frame his new house and Cezanne's mountain behind it. See LOOK. He ate the entire Imaginary Museum, shat on a canvas and sold it for a rainbow. Who can say ? We don't need to burn the Louvre now. The Equanimity of Complete Despair. The Shining Air. Sensitive Desert. Puddles of Light. One Pace from Nowhere. Clouds on a Wall. Erasmus to Durer. It is like being against the weather. Into the Space Ship on the IN Programme must go: A Scientist, A Colonel and A Magician. To live in a capsule of Earth atmosphere out there and propagate virus-wise there must be a Woman. A Tin-Hunan of Outer Space that she wants to make into IN-space for her. Tin-Hunan veiled the Touareg men and dyed them blue. The Space Queen hopes to step into the ship and throw off the horrid disguise. Stripping off her gimmicks and tossing them to the boys she raises aloft a vial of sperm and proclaims herself to be the sole Scientific and Magical Colonel of Space. "Back to Earth you Drones," she snarls to Men. "And keep humping." From having been artisans, painters have become alchemists and now to this. Wurra, wurra ! The great painters burn up the subjects they touch— all the fine flesh, roses, guitars and most of that merely visible world has been burned down for good. Now here's the picture: One eye strikes deeper into it than the other eye. This throws the Intellect or even the Reactive Mind or whatever right off balance for long enough for You to _see_ that other dimension. Painters are bucking for space like Cezanne bucked for the museum. Painters and Prophets speak in ecstatic tongues which even they "know" only in the act of speaking them. Look Away.

|Feng Shui for Love and Romance
Improve your Love Life through Feng Shui
by Mark Jacobson, MS in Ed., Certified Feng Shui Consultant
Feng Shui Consultants of Boca Raton
|Are you and your romantic partner not getting along - is there a lot
of disagreement conflict when there used to be love and
togetherness? Or, do you not have a romantic partner in your life but
wish you could find one? Properly applying the principles of Feng Shui
might be just what you need to fix that relationship or find a new
one, and it might be as simple as making a few simple adjustments.
Feng Shui helps with many important life goals, including career,
wealth, education, etc. One of the most important, and popular, Feng
Shui goals is Love and Relationship. You can use Feng Shui to find a
partner or improve your existing relationship. The back right corner
of any room or home is the Feng Shui Love and Relationship corner,
but your bedroom is the best place to start to improve your Feng
Shui Love and Relationship energy.
Examine your bedroom, especially the back right corner of your
bedroom, right now and see what items are there - next to your bed,
on your walls, in the corners. Is there a garbage pail there? Is that
why your love life is in the garbage pail? Do you have a picture of
your ex-love there? Is that why you can't move on? Do you have a
picture of your mom there? Something else that is not very romantic?
Remove anything that doesn't scream love and romance to you.
Note the color of your walls, carpet and sheets. If they are
depressing, dark, or just not romantic you might want to change
them, or improve them with highlights like romantic colored sheets or
curtains. What are romantic Feng Shui colors you ask? Romantic
Feng Shui colors are pink and peach. Use these colors liberally in your
bedroom and Love and Relationship area of your home for optimal
romance in your life.
In Feng Shui two of anything represents a harmonious and balanced
relationship, and items that are pairs or couples bring good couple
energy into your home and life. Do you have two identical
nightstands on either side of your bed with identical lamps? You
should. Make sure there are two pillows on your bed with matching
pillow cases. Is there a picture on the wall? If there is it should be a
pair or couple, not one figure, whether it's an animal, person, or
thing. There should not be a picture of a single person or animal in
your bedroom because it represents isolation, the opposite of what
you are trying to achieve. Your bedroom should represent to you the
romantic ideal you seek. Same thing with any statues or figures -
they should be matching pairs. The Dragon and Phoenix represent
the perfect couple, so representations of them together are
appropriate. Pairs of anything are good to have in your
bedroom, especially a Feng Shui romantic cure like love candles or
hearts. There should not be any pictures that are not romantic in
your bedroom - no photos of children, or sad people. The ideal
picture to hang on the wall in your bedroom, if you have a partner, is
a photo of you and your partner, preferably a romantic photo or one
that reminds you both of a happy and romantic time in your
Do you have room on either side of your bed, or do you and your
partner have to squeeze into bed from the same side? Make room on
both sides so you both have room to go to bed, and if you don't
have a partner there will be room for one to enter your life. You want
your entire room to have the look you expect it to have when your
ideal partner becomes a permanent part of your life and your
bedroom. And for some extra powerful romantic energy hang a
Marriage and Union Hanger in the back right corner of your
bedroom. This double coin hanger represents the perfect blending of

Indian defence minister says nations need to jointly fight terrorism
Tuesday, Feb 14,2012, 9:04:25 PM
Warning against the danger of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) falling into wrong hands, Indian Defence Minister A K Antony on Monday [13 February] said nations will need to work together to defeat such challenges.
The Defence Minister also said that the international community will have to jointly fight the menace of terrorism, which is of "grave concern to global peace and stability".
"WMDs go beyond nuclear weapons. These weapons may be biological, chemical and radiological, in nature and do not require sophisticated delivery systems. There is always a danger that these weapons may fall into wrong hands.
"Thus, nations need to cooperate with each other and draw up a comprehensive approach to evolve institutional frameworks to defeat such challenges," he said while addressing the 14th Asian Security Conference here.
Antony said problems such as "terrorism, drug trafficking, money laundering and transnational crimes are common concerns the world over."
"Terrorism continues to remain a grave concern to world peace and stability. Nations must draw up collective and innovative measures to counter and defeat such asymmetric threats," he said.
The Defence Minister said impact of issues such as food, water, economic instability, terrorism, proliferation of WMD and drug trafficking is having an impact on the dynamics of various societies and nations.
Antony said that as a fast-developing economy and democracy, India has been and will continue to be committed towards building a peaceful, secure and economically stable Asia.
"However, to address such non-traditional challenges, we also need to move beyond conventional ways of dealing with them," he added.
Observing that cyber security was a critical area of concern, Antony said nations must take serious and prompt note and cooperate with each other to strengthen seamless cyber security.
"Security of networks has become an urgent concern, as enormous vital and critical data passes through them every day. Any breach of cyber networks can cause untold damage to the security of any society or country," he said.
Pointing out that climate change too has an impact on security as it is causing floods and the per capita availability of water is decreasing sharply worldwide, the Minister said, "Water is actually fast emerging as a major source of insecurity and a potential issue for conflict among nations."
"Thus, nations need to cooperate on sharing water and efficient water usage and harvesting and initiate collective action for preserving our common environment," he added.
Antony said that energy was a source of competition among nations for energy demands and as fossil fuels are depleting at a rapid pace, nations and societies need to focus on alternative sources to meet our needs.

I named this column Comedy Matters because I truly believe it does. It matters to the junkies and alcoholics who frequent open mics to work through their demons on stage. It matters to the headliners and road comics who travel from club to club each night for a living. It matters to writers and Hollywood execs who make millions off the laughter that rumbles in darkened theaters. It matters to cancer patients, widows and kids. Comedy strikes us over the head or starts slowly in our belly and bellows out of us warming our innards with a rush of happiness. So when a comic dies, we hurt. And today, we're hurting because the world lost a great one.

Paula Hearts Jokes: Paula Poundstone at the Lensic
Watching a comedian move seamlessly between pre-written material and off the cuff banter with the audience while maintaining control of the show, making everyone laugh and improvising most of their set—well, it's sort of like seeing a unicorn. There's a very distinct possibility that Paula Poundstone is a unicorn. The comedian is known for her impeccable crowd work, which I witnessed when I first saw her perform in the 1987 TV special "Women of the Night" with Ellen DeGeneres and Rita Rudner. The way she incorporated the audience into her act changed the way I saw stand-up comedy. She provokes the audience with adamant personal questions, mocking their responses, but in a playful and free manner that never quite seems confrontational. With a new CD out called I Heart Jokes: Paula Tells Them In Boston, Poundstone can be heard on NPR's "Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!" See her live at the Lensic Performing Arts Center (211 W. San Francisco) in Santa Fe tomorrow evening at 7:30, and witness as she guides the audience through a series of quick comebacks and witty one-liners. Tickets run between $27.50 and $35.

The last camera angle was the best where it shows just how far he had to go. Also like Geno Smith looking dumbfounded that that just happened.

|I agree
He had no reason to hit her. It just looked like she was hitting him as well. Neither of them should be using violence. I agree that the dude committed a crime and deserves to be punished as he knocked her out completely.

Yes, I would prefer that nothing on this blog be a complete surprise to them but perhaps some of the in depth anaylsis goes beyond what they themselves have time to do.

Although I hope Hoke and Nuss read this blog. If tempo is truly an issue, perhaps MgoBlog can help them realize it.

|Hopefully neither of them get anything
Both of them were very physically violent with each other. It's not like he hit her out of the blue. She clearly had no problem hitting him before he retaliated. Yes, it is disproportionate force that he used, but she is no saint and shouldn't be rewarded for her behavior.

If he finishes the season at .500, I am a happy Detroit Lions fans. Am I the only one who thinks that Schwartz has done really well there? Dare I say the Lions are fun to watch? They seem like they should win every game. He should not be fired at all. 0-16 is all I can say. How many coaches did they try before they got Schwartz? Yes, the Lions underperform--but that is what makes them so fun to watch. You never know when they are just going to go off and crush the Green Bay Packers or lose horribly to the Eagles. The fact that they are actually capable of winning under Schwartz, regardless of whether or not they actually are, is an improvement.

|How about...
OSU or msu wins in a slugfest. Auburn gets crushed by mizzou and the sec loses all of their bowl games. Big ten wins all of theirs. As much as I dislike osu, im so sick of hearing how good auburn is. They won on two miracle plays.
|41 weeks 4 days ago
The sec generally has 3-5 decent teams. This is about what most conferences have. Then they have average teams and bad teams. Very normal. Nothing to see there. Media needs to stop overhyping them.
|42 weeks 1 day ago
|terrible precedent
Such an action would set a terrible precedent. If that is the case, then the Big Ten, Big 12, Pac 12, etc have no chance because there will always be plenty of 1 loss SEC teams out there. SEC is not that great. Mizzou powered through their conference in only their 2nd year in there. It's not like Mizzou was anything special in the Big 12 and 2 years removed is not much. A one loss Auburn team should not under any circumstances jump an undefeated team from a power conference.

|Smart kid
Seems like he doesn't understand video cameras. What if the Big Ten watches replay and suspends? That'll make for a good Big Ten championship...

|if msu wins next week...
Why not MSU? A one-loss team, whose only loss was to a ranked team (ND 25 at the time) with arguably the best defense in the country. Seems like that would be a better choice than Missouri or Bama.
|42 weeks 1 day ago
If this happens, the Big Ten should quit the entire system because it is flawed. What if, instead of Ohio State in that situation it was Michigan? We would never allow such horrible SEC incestuous logic. If OSU beats MSU, then they deserve to be in the Nat Championship game regardless of what happens in SEC land.

OSU's offense ran for some ridiculous yards today, largely because of a good, experienced o-line. Losing that will still certainly hurt them.

Overtime is at best a 50/50 proposition. I like that he is rolling the dice without screwing around with overtime. Huge game by Devin. Let him try for a 3 yard throw with it all on the line.

When the Los Angeles Lakers face the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center, Pau Gasol will have at least one supporter on the rival bench who will be unconditionally rooting for him on Friday.
Pau Gasol is having a difficult time after missing eight games earlier this season due to knee tendonitis. Once a core player on the Los Angeles Lakers offense, Pau Gasol has now been assigned to reduced minutes off the bench since coming back from a concussion that forced him to miss five more games this season. While Pau Gasol was initially being a good solider about his new role on the bench, the 32-year-old appeared greatly frustrated by the recent situation after he didn't see any playing time in the fourth quarter of Los Angeles Lakers' win over the New Orleans Hornets on Tuesday.
Now, fellow Spaniard Ricky Rubio is speaking up for him, alleging that Pau Gasol has proven himself as a top-flight player in the NBA and questioned the Los Angeles Lakers' decision to remove him from the starting lineup.
"I don't think so," Minnesota Timberwolves guard Ricky Rubio offered his perspective on whether Pau Gasol was being treated fairly in Los Angeles. "He proved in the league that he is one of the best. He can pass, he can shoot, he can rebound. He can do a lot of things."
"I think if you use him in the right way, he is a top player in this league," added Ricky Rubio." If they don't want him, we are more than welcome to get him."
Pau Gasol's name has been mentioned quite a few times in trade rumors over the past few years. The Minnesota Timberwolves have always been seen as a likely landing spot for Pau Gasol.
But Kobe Bryant has always rallied behind keeping Pau Gasol in Los Angeles. Additionally, until shortly after the training camp, Pau Gasol was still expected to be a key part of the Lakers' offense especially after the acquisition of Dwight Howard and Steve Nash. But Pau Gasol has struggled to find his place in Mike D'Antoni's offense. The four-time All-Star Pau Gasol is averaging a career-low 12.8 points and 44.8 percent shooting from the field this season. So after starting each of the past four seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers, Pau Gasol has lost his spot to journeyman Earl Clark, who received the nod from Mike D'Antoni this season.
"He's been with the Lakers (five-plus) seasons. And he's been a starter since day one. This year – it seems like…It's been the last two years – it seems they don't want him," said Ricky Rubio. "But actually they need him, because he's a great player. He can do a lot of things."
"He's had issues with his knees, and it's been a lot of years without resting for him," continued Ricky Rubio. "But he's a veteran, he knows how to play. He's a great player."
Minnesota Timberwolves coach Rick Adelman has for long pondered over the possibility of using Pau Gasol-Kevin Love in a front court pairing, similar to his efforts with Chris Webber-Vlade Divac in Sacramento. However, the trade seems something pulled out of the air since Pau Gasol is owed $19 million both this season making it an unfeasible option for both parties.
"It's hard when you're hearing things, rumors that you're going to be traded," said Ricky Rubio. "But he's a professional. He's been playing a long time, and he's going to keep doing what he's been doing."
Ricky Rubio: Gasol's "more than welcome" in Minnesota

Shelby isn't the only company celebrating a major anniversary in Monterey this year. Lamborghini marked its 50th year in business, and the 2012 Concorso Italiano is packed with Raging Bulls from every era of company's history. While the show serves as a showcase for all Italian makes, the Laguna Seca Golf Ranch always sees a wide cross section of manufacturers and models from around the globe.
This year, Fiat showed off the new 500T as part of the brand's 55th anniversary, and the show grounds were filled with a rash of classic Fiat models. Those included one very gorgeous Cinquenento Abarth, as well as a few examples of the new 500.
Finally, Bertone is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2012, and the Concorso Italiano featured plenty of concepts and production models by the design firm. Even the Nuccio Concept showed up on the green in all of its 80s futuristic splendor. As you may recall, the last time we saw that machine, it was lounging under the lights of the Geneva Motor Show. Check out the full gallery above.

Sightings of a "ball of coloured flame" or "silver fireball" have been witnessed in Christchurch, Whanganui, Wellington, Kapiti Coast, Nelson and Kaikoura between 6pm and 7pm on Monday.
One witness in Canterbury wrote on Weatherwatch.co.nz: "Was like a flying ball left with a jet stream sort of thing in the sky and was really bright!"
"Fantastically big, bright, and racing across the sky," said another witness in Otaki, Kapiti Coast.
Simon Holtham wrote on the website: "I saw this too, it was like something out of a movie, ball of coloured flame shooting towards the earth from west to east, a couple of flashes, lots of smoke which stayed in the sky for ages, and then gone."
Another person said: "Seen bright light flying in high speed with huge tail over looking the Cook Strait."

Yes you are correct, Phantoms are ú8.00 each or ú40.00 for 5 through Needles.
I think ú4.50 each or 45.00 for 10 is quite a good deal. If you are not interested why comment?

Jojo1982 - on 17 Jul 2013
In reply to Drewster - BAD SELLER: I am appalled by the treatment Drew has had from UKC. It clearly states in his post that he has just been struck down with long term illness... that would be CANCER!!! He clearly posted his phone number and email address for people to contact him with as he is in and out of hospital for treatment at present. On top of this he has been forced to move from his home due to a relationship breakdown. Why not just call him if there was an issue? He has been a member of UKC for seven years or so and has sold numerous items through the forums (30ish items) I don't care if you ban me but I DO hope that a few people read this and reassess their membership you insensitive jobsworths.
P.S. Drew would like to thank all of the people who have bought and received items from him and given positive feedback on this forum (although it would seem that some of this might have been removed...) If any of you are still interested you can contact him on the email or phone number above.

Budgie Behaviour
Budgies are very social animals, which is why they make such great pets. In the wild, they live in large flocks, and have constant interactions with those around them.
Like any animal, budgies have developed certain ways of interacting, and certain patterns of behaviour. When we learn to understand how budgies communicate, and what their actions really mean, we can begin to have a relationship thats happy and fulfilling, for us and them.
Obviously, budgies dont have a complex spoken language, like we do. Theyre not able to communicate complex ideas like mathematics. But they do have a wide range of expression, through body language and vocalizations, which help them communicate how theyre feeling and what they want.
Budgies are born knowing how to communicate with other budgies, and they all understand this common language, so they can instantly get along with new budgies that they come across.
Behaviour in the Wild
Budgies form large communities, called flocks, and live together relatively peacefully. Theres no social hierarchy, (nobodys in charge,) they just band together to help each other survive. When youre on the ground, eating some seed, its much better to have a hundred pairs of eyes that can spot predators.
Even though nobodys in charge in the flock, that doesnt mean everybodys best friends. Sometimes fights will break out over mating opportunities dont they always? but these fights arent brutal fights to the death, they tend to just be threats, with the loser backing down quickly enough. The only time budgies are really willing to fight is to defend their nest in the breeding season.
Learn more about wild budgie behaviour.
Courtship and Mating
There are no alpha males and females in budgie society, keeping breeding rights for themselves. Every budgie is free to mate with who they want, it just depends on who manages to attract them.
The whole dating process can be quite long and drawn out before the couple actually mate, and the male often has to put in a lot of effort before they do. The male has a variety of strategies to improve his relationship with a female, from just walking up very close and tapping her with his beak, to feeding her, or starting mutual grooming sessions.
Of course, its not all a one sided process, the females communicating what she feels at each step in the relationship. Often females are happy to go along with the mating process, but if they really dont want to mate with a persistent suitor, they can go as far as attacking him until he goes away.
Body Language
Aggressive Behaviour
When a budgie wants to get aggressive, it stands up tall and straight, even straightening its foot joints, to make itself appear larger. After that, it makes hostile vocalizations at its target, and violent motions with its beak.
Often this show of aggression is enough to make its opponent fly away. But if the other budgie wants to fight, itll give a warning call of its own, then theyll attempt to pull each others feathers out, and bite each others feet.
Fights are rarely fatal, and usually end before anyone is seriously hurt.
In total, budgies spend several hours grooming themselves each day. This activity is spread out, throughout the day, a few minutes each time.
For a budgie, good hygiene and grooming isnt just a way of avoiding germs, its essential maintenance, which keeps them in top flying condition. A budgie that has ruffled, dirty, uneven feathers will have a hard time flying. And if the budgie doesnt keep its feathers oiled up, its not protected from rain, or heat, and could lose the ability to fly altogether. Because of this, budgies keep themselves extremely well groomed.
Learn more about budgie grooming.
Comfort Behaviours
Budgies relive tension by puffing up, and shaking out, their feathers. Youll often notice your budgie doing this throughout the day, and almost always after scary or tense experiences. Your budgie will often shake its feathers out between activities, and before or after resting, much like we might have a stretch.
We all know how good it feels to get rid of tension, and this is a very healthy behaviour for your budgie.
One things which is common to most animals is yawning. Nobody knows exactly why people and other animals yawn, but there are many theories. The most popular theories tend to be that we yawn when were low on oxygen, or because we want to relieve some tension. Whatever the reason is, budgies yawn as well.
Temperature Control
Budgies deal with the cold much like any other animal does. When budgies are trying to keep warm, they huddle together, and puff up their feathers, to trap warm air. Normally, budgies become very touchy when another bird invades their personal space who doesnt? but when you need to keep warm, normal rules dont apply.
On the other hand, when its very hot, youll often see your budgie stretch its wings out and start panting. This is to help keep the whole body at an even temperature.

"According to BIGinsight's St. Patrick's Day spending survey, 54.4 percent of Americans say they will celebrate the traditionally Irish holiday this year, the most in the survey's nine-year history. Overall, the average person will spend about $35 on the holiday, totaling $4.6 billion."
I <3 Retail is going green this week in anticipation of St. Patrick's Day on Saturday and we want to see your best green goods! Bonus points if your showcase merchandise is at the $35 price point or below, but no worries if it's not.
"Why the interest in St. Patrick's Day", you might ask?
"When asked how they will celebrate, eight in 10 will aim to avoid the traditional pinch by simply wearing green… BIGinsight's Consumer Insights Director Pam Goodfellow says, 'As a non gift-giving holiday, St. Patrick's Day really brings out the fun in consumers every year, knowing they can splurge on gimmicky accessories like pins and buttons for their clothes and even home decor items to put their entire family in a festive spirit.'"
When consumers are poised to spend, Raleighwood Media Group's retail marketing team wants them to shop with you! Send pictures, description, and prices for your best green goods to firstname.lastname@example.com before Friday at 6:00pm for free inclusion in this week's St. Patrick's Day features on IHeartRetail.com!
