Update: Bloomberg claims to have concrete information from unnamed sources on when the iPad Pro will release. More details below.
With Apple's thinner, lighter iPad Air (and now iPad Air 2) and Retina display-equipped iPad mini 3 out in the open, what's left for Apple to do?
Rumor has it that the Mac maker is working on an even larger iPad, commonly referred to as the "iPad Pro." We've combed through all of the rumors and scuttlebutt to bring you everything we've heard so far about this alleged iPad Pro.
Apple invited the press to a "special event" October 24, but the iPad Pro was nowhere to be found, with the company instead choosing to launch the iPad Air 2 and OS X 10.10 Yosemite.
Apple did something interesting with the launch of the latest full-sized iPad (aside from a total hardware revamp): Gave it a new name. The iPad Air alludes to the Cupertino, Calif. company adopting the naming convention of its laptop lines, the MacBook Air and Pro series, for its premiere range of tablets.
Logic would dictate, then, that if Apple were to release an even more sizable iPad, it would be with a professional bent and named the iPad Pro. So, we're looking at 2014 for a newer, bigger iPad entering a product category that has seen little success thus far. Will Apple be the one to legitimize the "professional's tablet?"
What is it? A brand new, larger iPad
When will it release? Either spring or fall 2014, we expect, possibly 2015
What will it cost? Likely somewhere between the iPad Air and MacBook Air
iPad Pro release date
The iPad Pro release date might be in 2014, following the iPad Air, which released November 1, 2013. However, there are many rumors regarding the tablet's firm release date.
The latest rumour is that the iPhone 6 was to blame for the iPad Pro delay. According to the Wall Street Journal, Apple's suppliers struggled to keep up with demand for its latest smartphone, which had a knock-on effect by pushing the iPad Pro back to 2015.
Another rumour, which stems from the supply chain cited by Digitismes, reckons that Apple has a 12.9-inch iPad Pro in the works that will arrive in early 2015. If true, it could be worth the wait, as that report claims that the slate will run a hybrid OS X and iOS-integrated operating system.
If that happens, reports from Taiwan that point to the iPad Pro as housing a more powerful version of the A8 chipset found in the iPhone 6 start to make a bit more sense.
One of the most credible updates – reports of a larger iPad release - peg it as right on track for a 2015 release date, Bloomberg reports, citing "people with knowledge of the matter," that an iPad Pro will enter production early next year. (The whole gamut of rumors and reports follow.)
Unnamed Foxconn sources have told Chinese news site Pad News that Apple plans either a late winter/spring or October 2014 release date. To further confuse things, these sources also claim that Apple is working on two versions of the pro-level slate.
According to Pad News, an iPad Pro with a 4K display will land in October. Korea Times's sources at a "local first-tier display supplier" report that a single version will launch "sometime early next year" with a nearly UHD resolution.
Even more sources reporting to China's United Daily News, point to another iPad Pro manufacturing partner entirely: Quanta Computer. DigiTimes's sources (hit-and-miss with rumors) recently backed up this report, claiming that Apple expected the manufacturer to have either a 12.9 or 13.3-inch model ready. Now, the Taiwanese outlet's sources say that Apple is leaning toward the smaller screen.
As if to mix things up even more, International Business Times reports that Apple is aiming for winter or even a spring 2015 release, according to its Foxconn sources.
Computer World points out that most US school districts determine their budgets in January or February each year. So, a fall or winter 2014 launch would make the most sense.
However, Rhoda Alexander, an analyst for market research firm IHS, isn't convinced that we'll see an iPad Pro in 2014 if at all. Alexander told CNET that, while she's aware that many manufacturers are looking at sample panels at various sizes–12.85 inches being one of them–it's still early days for the potential pad.
"We have not seen volume shipments yet of any panels," Alexander told CNET. "We have to get a lot further down the line in terms of seeing really strong indicators from Apple that such a product exists, and we're just not at that point."
Thanks to an analyst with KGI Securities, whether Apple will get to the iPad Pro in 2014 at all is a question we're all asking. According to a report published by the firm, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo doesn't expect that Apple will be ready to launch the pro-grade tablet until 2015.
As of March 17th, the latest from the rumor mill is that Apple has canceled its iPad Pro project altogether. DigitTimes – take that grain of salt – reports that the larger iPad has been shelved, anticipating a lack of support from developers and the overall ecosystem.
Has Apple already backed off out of fear of crowding the market? We hope you like your salt, because DigitTimes backpedaled a bit and reported on March 26th that the larger iPad project is still a go, with a projected late 2014 release date.
Reported on April 9th, the latest again pegs the fabled 12-inch plus slate for sometime in 2015, rather than fall or winter of 2014, KGI analyst Kuo reiterated as much in notes obtained by AppleInsider. But now, Kuo has a reason: Apple is allegedly still working on figuring out the best means of usability for such a large tablet.
"With the 12.9" iPad, we think Apple will come up with a new user interface that's more innovative and intuitive, so that input will be as efficient as a device with keyboard," Kuo said, according to AppleInsider.
Apple teams up with IBM
In order to further its lead in the enterprise space through BYOD, Apple partnered up with IBM to create new business-focused apps for iOS. This includes exclusive apps created by Apple and IBM in tandem ranging from data and analytics to device management and security.
While this move is currently just to increase the amount of existing iOS devices in the office, is there a better way to grease the wheels for a pro-centric iOS device? Not without spending a ton more cash, that's for sure.
Apple tries to quash the rumors
On the Macintosh computer's 30th birthday, Apple executives responded to rumors that the company was looking to merge Mac OS X and iOS into a single operating system. The retort? No chance in hell.
"We don't waste time thinking, 'But it should be one [interface].' How do you make these [operating systems] merge together?' What a waste of energy that would be," Apple SVP of worldwide marketing Phil Schiller told Macworld.
Craig Federighi, Apple's SVP of Software Engineering, echoed Schiller's statement with some rather sensible logic. Regardless, neither does this mean that an even larger iPad isn't in the works nor that iOS could become more professional-friendly to support such a device. Basically, if Apple were to release an iPad Pro, it wouldn't pull a Microsoft.
The competition already heats up
Samsung beat Apple to the punch in unveiling its 12.2-inch Galaxy Note Pro and Galaxy Tab Pro tablets during CES 2014. With that, DigiTimes expects Apple "to release its competitor by the end of the third quarter at the earliest."
iPad Pro design
It's doubtful that Apple would do much to change the shape of the iPad Pro in its leap to 12.9 inches, the supposed size most rumors point to. The iPad Air's design was applauded by critics (us included), and early sales projections say that consumers are into it. However, an Evercore Partners analyst suspects the size to be a smaller 12 inches to align itself closer to the 11.6-inch MacBook Air, AppleInsider reports.
An image supposedly showing an iPad Pro dummy unit has made its way into the wild and it certainly looks closer to 13 inches than 12.
It should go without saying that the iPad Pro will inevitably be heavier than the iPad Air. To even meet the iPad Air's feathery 453.6 g at 12.9 inches would be a miracle of modern engineering. That said, not much should stop Apple from meeting the Air's super svelte profile at 7.5 mm thin.
The concept designers at SET Solution seem to disagree. In the video above, SET Solution dreams of a device with an even narrower bezel with sharper edges, a camera with the dual LED flash found on the iPhone 5s, Touch ID and a textured aluminum backing.

As was discussed earlier in this article, diabetes is a very serious disease that must be treated properly. Diabetics must be willing to learn as much as possible about the nature of the condition so they know how to practice proper self-care. Diabetics who apply the advice from this article will be taking great steps towards improving their health and well being. You now know the basics of managing your diabetes on a daily basis. Don't forget that the tips here are only a few of the many things you can do and learn about, so don't stop researching your diabetes. To improve treatment compliance, take a moment to reflect on why you take care of your diabetes. Think about what you like to do, and how managing diabetes can help you do those things; think about what motivates you. Your passions in life should serve as excellent motivation to get your health on track. When you are trying to pick the right glucose monitor, it is important that you choose one with the features that matter the most to you. Your preferences could include speed, good data management and storage or just an easy to read screen. There are monitors out there to suit whatever priorities you choose. If you have diabetes or want to avoid it, you need to have more physical activity in your life. Not only will you lose weight, but your blood sugar will decrease because you will develop higher sensitivity to insulin. People who suffer from diabetes should not be sitting around all day. Be extra vigilant about your dental hygiene when you're dealing with diabetes, because the condition puts you at greater risk for gum disease. Make sure you floss every day, and brush your teeth at several intervals throughout the day.
Those who have been diagnosed with diabetes must take in all the information there is about their condition. By gathering as much information as possible, they ensure the best possible care for themselves. When the disease is diabetes, the power to conquer is knowledge and personal responsibility. This increases your child's chances of developing diabetes when he or she is born or later in life. It is very important for you to maintain good health so as not to doom your child to having diabetes.
Smoking is not a habit a diabetic should start, or continue. Smoking is harmful to your blood sugar levels, as well as its other harmful effects to you and others. If you need help to quit, ask your doctor for suggestions.
When people have diabetes they are also more likely to acquire other health problems as well, and they might not even notice them; one serious one to note is sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is when you do not breathe as you should while you are sleeping. If you are constantly fatigued during the day, consult a doctor and ask for a sleep apnea evaluation. When you have to deal with travel and diabetes at the same time, you had best get an insulated bag to carry your insulin. Insulin must be stored at a specific temperature; if you store it in a bag that is insulated, the temperature will remain consistent.
Remember to consult your physician if you're pregnant or if you think you have gestational diabetes. If you don't control gestational diabetes, not only your health, but your baby's health, is in jeopardy. Your doctor may prescribe certain medications that are safe to take during pregnancy, and he can also advise you of what to eat. If you find it difficult to keep track of your sugar levels as part of your diabetes management, use a log to record them. Keep a journal for your doctor of your treatments and readings. This enables your doctor to be able to monitor your techniques and progress.
If you have diabetes, cinnamon is a great spice to eat without adding sugar, sodium or calories. Adding cinnamon in certain foods will make the natural sweetness come alive without the negative affects of sugar, which can elevate blood glucose levels. Some studies have shown that cinnamon will lower the sugar levels, but regardless it is a good thing to add to your foods. While gestational diabetes normally ceases to be a problem after giving birth, you should still get your blood sugar levels checked regularly. You can still have problems with blood glucose levels when you have your baby! The easiest way to stay on top of your diabetes is to see your doctor regularly. By and large, diabetes is an incurable disease. You must constantly monitor your disease and how your treatment is helping (or not) to ensure that your health doesn't suffer. By taking measures to manage your diabetes before it gets out of hand, you will be able to live without the constant interference of diabetes.

After a landslide victory for the Philadelphia Eagles, demolishing the Oakland Raiders 49-20, the Raiders hope to get back on track against the struggling New York Giants. The defense of the Raiders was looking as sharp as it has since the Black Hole can remember, though last week's performance was horrid.
Despite the atrocious nightmare in allowing Nick Foles to etch his name in the history books with a record setting seven touchdown passes, the offense brings upon far more questions of concern. Allowing 49 points is simply unacceptable; however, the defense was a mammoth reason to why the Raiders were a competitive 3-4 prior to the blowout loss.
If I were to give the offense a letter grade on their performance thus far, I would give them a D … and that's being generous.
I'll begin with the young leader under center, Terrelle Pryor. The first few games of the season, Pryor looked as if he certainly had the potential to be a franchise quarterback, he was completing close to 70 percent percent of his passes and took good care of the ball.
The Pryor as of late, on the other hand, has majorly struggled. Pryor's thrown seven interceptions to just one touchdown the past three matchups, while completing a disappointing 53 percent of his passes. Being a quarterback in the NFL is exceedingly difficult; with that being said, Pryor must make major strides in his game as a passer if he wants become a tenable franchise signal caller.
The 24-year-old Pryor is in his first season as a starting quarterback in this league; I take that into consideration. In addition, the offense surrounding him has not helped him much either, which has made it even more difficult on the inexperienced Pryor.
Moreover, the youngster still has ways to go as a pocket passer. He's an amazing athlete, and incredibly fun to watch, but quarterbacks need to know how to properly facilitate the offense. Running quarterbacks are not going to win many games in professional football, you need someone who has the ability to stand strong in the pocket, make the right read, step up, and consistently make a throw. Duel threat quarterbacks, players who are legitimate threats as a runner and a passer, are some of the most dangerous amongst the league. That's who Pryor needs to become.
The weight of the offense does not fall entirely on the young quarterback. Pryor has been able to do some great things, without him under center, only God knows how many sacks a stationary quarterback would have taken – possibly an NFL record through eight games. His ability to extend plays and gain massive chunks of yardage with his feet is sensational.
Pryor's struggles have partly come from the poor play of the offensive line. Nonetheless, the front five is getting healthier and healthier every week. The line has struggled terribly at providing Pryor with a clean pocket to scan the field, largely due to injuries across the board. Fortunately, the offensive line will be the healthiest it's been all season on Sunday against the New York Giants, with rookie tackle Menelik Watson getting his first career NFL start and Andre Gurode back from injury. It should be a good week to evaluate Pryor as a pocket passer.
The running attack for the Raiders has been virtually non-existent, making Pryor's life even harder. Pryor has been the team's best rusher on the read option, or when he scrambles.
An effective run game is crucial, especially for a young quarterback, not only because it helps move the chains, but it sets up the pass game beautifully. Pryor could be a good play action passer with his mobility, though the Raiders haven't been able to execute the play action the way they'd like due to inferior protection and lack of a run threat out of the backfield. Darren McFadden will most likely not be ready to go Sunday after suffering another nagging hamstring injury, therefore Rashad Jennings will get the workload.
A reliable tight end is indispensable for a quarterback. The Raiders have seen some promise in the rookie Mychal Rivera, yet they haven't been able to consistently incorporate a threatening tight end in the pass game. Receivers have done an average job creating space off of their breaks, for that's an area with much room for improvement. The Raiders rank 30th in passing, averaging a low 197.8 yards in the air.
Offensively, Oakland has a tremendous amount of improving to do. We've seen the level of defense the Raiders are capable of playing when they're firing on all cylinders, but the offense needs to make significant strides. Rashad Jennings did play very well last week, rushing for 102 yards on 15 carries and a score. With a considerably healthier offensive line, hopefully the Raiders will be able to pound the ball against the New York Giants.

This year's IBM 5 in 5 explores the idea that everything will learn -- driven by a new era of cognitive systems where machines will learn, reason and engage with us in a more natural and personalized way. These innovations are beginning to emerge enabled by cloud computing, big data analytics and learning technologies all coming together, with the appropriate privacy and security considerations, for consumers, citizens, students and patients.
"We know more now than any other generation at any time has known. And yet, we struggle to keep up with this flood of increasingly complex information, let alone make sense of the meaning that is inherent in the massive amounts of data we are acquiring at ever faster rates," said Dario Gil, Director, Cognitive Experience Lab, IBM. "By creating technology that is explicitly designed to learn and enhance our cognition we will usher in a new era of progress for both individuals and for society at large."
The Classroom Will Learn About You
IBM predicts the classroom of the future will give educators the tools to learn about every student, providing each student with a tailored curriculum from kindergarten to high school and on to employment.
"In the next five years the classroom will learn about each student using longitudinal data such as test scores, attendance and student's behavior on e-learning platforms, not just aptitude tests," the firm said. "Sophisticated analytics delivered over the cloud will provide decision support to teachers so they can predict students who are most at risk, their roadblocks, and then suggest measures to help students conquer their challenges based on their individual learning style."
Buying Local Will Beat Online
Shopping online is a national past time. Online sales topped $1 trillion worldwide for the first time last year, and are growing faster than in-store sales. Nevertheless, IBM reports, in five years new innovations will make buying local de rigueur once again.
"In five years, retailers could rely on Watson-like technologies to equip sales associates to be expert about every product in the store," the firm said. "With technologies such as augmented reality and the recently announced plan to open Watson as an app development platform, IBM is providing shoppers with better in-store browsing and buying experiences."

I have REGULAR- 28 day cycle and I want to know , Is it possible to change the Ovulation date month to month when the cycle is 28 days and having REGULAR Periods...? OR is it always happen 14 days before I start my periods..?? I am 30 and my husband and I are trying to conceive (get pregnant) with a baby from about 05 months, but still we didn't get pregnant. I have never taken contraceptive pills and I'm wondering if this is normal since I have a regular 28 days cycle for periods.. I cannot detect my certain ovulation date, but we had sex by guessing the ovulation date as 14 days before my next periods, since I have a 28 days of a regular periods cycle. Did I missed my OVULATION DATE? I think I timed everything perfectly, so why didn't it work?? Please reply bcz I m expecting pregnancy.

I had the same problem as you, I could never seem to gauge my ovulation window. After many failed attempts I did some research and found the SMEP plan (sperm meets egg plan) I found it on twoweekwait.com it was very helpful. YOu will need some Ovualation prediction tests so I bought some off the internet (inexpensive) I started testing from cycle day 10 (day 1 being the first day of your period) I was shocked to get a positive on cycle day 19, I couldn't believe it was that late, I followed the SMEP plan to the word and fell pregnant straight away, I'm now 11wks along. Good luck!!posted 03/21/2013 by emma4742
First of all sperm can live for a few days in the uterus and it is good for them to be in there before the actual ovulation takes place. As far as ovulation goes, there is no way to guess what days you ovulate and it can vary cycle to cycle. An average luteal phase is anywhere from 10-16 days, anyhing shorter than that does not leave enough time for implantation and further cycle regulation is needed to lengthen this phase. The best way to find out when you're ovulating is to take your basal body temperature. There is no way other than this to confirm ovulation at home.posted 03/18/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Yes, your ovulation date can change from month to month. If your cycle is regular, though, it is not likely. As the other person said, a luteal phase is 10-16 days long. I would start charting your basal body temperature, cervical mucus and use a ovulation predictor kit twice a day for about a week before ovulation. Once you get a positive on your OPK, then you will ovulate within a couple days from that. Also, when you see egg white cervical mucus, then you are fertile and should try to conceive as many times as possible . Hope this helpsposted 03/19/2013 by a BabyCenter Member

What Moms Today Can Learn From The Mother of Jesus, Part 5
- Friday, January 10, 2003
Eventually she thought better of her decision, choosing a more logical way to serve those less fortunate, but the words that I had screamed were reflective of the words of my own mother when, at 18, I said I was moving across the state...when, at 35, I said I was moving to another state...when (never mind what age) I said I was going to New York City (on Sept. 10, 2001, no less)...and then when, having survived 9-11, I announced that I would be going to the Holy Land in the middle of its most recent conflict for 10 days as a journalist.
"Have you lost your mind?"
Lessons from Mary
We aren't the first mothers to ask this question and, if you've already had to say it a few thousand times, neither are you. And neither was Jesus' mother Mary. Or are you even aware she did? Remember the story that led Jesus to ask, "Who are my mother and brothers?" That's the one. Though we are quick to remember Jesus' reaction to their visit while He ministered and taught, I think we sometimes forget the reason for the trip.
The Scriptures gives us three versions of the story. Let's begin with Matthew. "While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him." -- Matthew 12:46
Jesus had just been in the middle of some fairly "hot" preaching and healing. He had even pronounced some curses along the way. ("Woe to you, Korazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida!...and you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the skies? No, you will go down to the depths.- Matthew 11:21,23) He had just finished speaking of "the sign of Jonah" and evil spirits coming out of a man. (Matthew 12:38 ff) All of a sudden, "Jesus, your mother and brothers are outside and I believe they want to have a little chat with you...."
Luke's version of this story tells us that Mary and the brothers were outside because the crowds around her son/their brother were "pressing." A woman who-at one time-had every access to her young man now couldn't get to Him even to speak privately.
But why had they gone? Mark gives us the reason in Mark 3: 20, 21, which reads: "Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, 'He is out of his mind.' (Hebrew: Existemi, meaning: to be out of one's mind, besides one's self, insane.)
Ah! There are those words again! "Have you lost your ever-loving mind?"
We can imagine what the conversation was like between Jesus and His family members (once He went out to speak with them), but we can't know for sure. (Personally, I envision Him cupping her nearing middle-age face with His hand and whispering, "It will be okay, Eema. [Mom] This is why I came. This is my purpose.")

By the time Europeans reached Indiana in the 1600s, our economic future was already set. Cornfields stretched for miles along the river valleys and colorful vegetables filled gardens tended by Native Americans.
Indiana was destined to be an agricultural state. Climate and topography made it so.
In 1794, after Gen. Anthony Wayne's army defeated Native Americans at the Battle of Fallen Timbers near Toledo, Ohio, his troops spent days destroying Indian grain fields throughout the Maumee River Valley and toward present-day Fort Wayne.
One soldier told of maize plantations, bean patches, apple-tree stands and potato plots. Wayne himself said he'd never "beheld such immense fields of corn in any part of America, from Canada to Florida."
Ever since, farming has been the foundation of Indiana's economy. Nationally Indiana ranks fifth in corn, fifth in soybeans and second in popcorn production. It represents just under 5 percent of the state's Gross Domestic Product.
"Agriculture's Bounty: The Economic Contribution of Agriculture," published by the Indiana Business Research Center, credits the agricultural sector for 190,000 Hoosier jobs. Of those, 103,000 are directly involved in crop production and processing.
It's no accident that Indiana is known for these things. The late, great Indiana University geographer, Stephen Sargent Visher, wrote in his 1944 book "Climate of Indiana" that, "During about nine months in the year the temperatures are more favorable than prevail in most of the world." Long stretches between frosts, reliable rainfall and warm summer days and nights create almost ideal farming conditions.
Scholars trace the genetic origins of corn back 10,000 years to a Central American grass called teosinte. It was the upper Mississippian Oneota peoples who lived along the Wabash River, however, who became "the first fully adapted maize agriculturalists," according to one study of native activity in the late prehistoric period, 950-1650 A.D.
Sponsored by the Indiana Soybean Alliance, the Glass Barn at the Indiana State Fairgrounds is designed to educate Hoosiers about what life is like for farmers and their families. The building features interactive and high-tech exhibits including a video theater where visitors can connect "virtually" with farmers. It will be open throughout the fair's run from Aug. 2-18, and long-term plans call for its use year-round as an educational center.
As the joke goes, "You know you're in Indiana when ... all you see are corn and soybeans." There's more than a grain of truth to it. It's an important part of our history and our present.

Samoa will jump forward in time by one day to make it easier to do business with Australia and New Zealand.
At present, Samoa is 21 hours behind Sydney. From 29 December it will be three hours ahead.
The change comes 119 years after Samoa moved in the opposite direction.
Then, it transferred to the east side of the international date line in an effort to aid trade with the US and Europe.
However, Australia and New Zealand have increasingly become Samoa's biggest trading partners.
Samoan Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi said: "In doing business with New Zealand and Australia, we're losing out on two working days a week.
"While it's Friday here, it's Saturday in New Zealand and when we're at church Sunday, they're already conducting business in Sydney and Brisbane."

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon have released a virtual time machine — for pictures. It's a super-advanced time-lapse photo system that allows high resolution as well as viewing changes over time such as plants in boom.
"With GigaPan Time Machine, you can simultaneously explore space and time at extremely high resolutions," said Illah Nourbakhsh, associate professor of robotics and head of the CREATE Lab. "Science has always been about narrowing your point of view — seeing a particular experiment or observation that you think might provide insight. But this system enables what we call exhaustive science, capturing huge amounts of data that can be explored in amazing ways."

After twenty years in Publishing, I have finally decided to take a career break and am going to be spending at least a year from June 07 travelling around the world, going everywhere and eating everything
I will be taking up offers from wherevever they come to sample the best the planet has to offer and so far have some amazing invitations from Elk Hunting in Finland to picking grapes in The Barossa valley
I would love to hear any other thoughts,suggestions or ideas of what is out there that I must not miss
If you want to read along as I progress, you can check out www.eatmyglobe.com
I appreciate all the help in advance
Simon, Simon, Simon... too easy my friend. But if you come to Chicago we can hook you up to: true deep dish pizza; italian beef; amazing thai food; two, count 'em two china towns, with a little viet thrown in for good measure and a futon right here if you don't mind a snoggle w/ a sweet little boy cat named Webster.
Thanks, Bryan
Chicago is definitely high up on my list. One of my favourite places in the USA is there ( or was last time I visited ) on East Roscoe (?) a place called El Tinajon. But, I am definitely up for a few days trying all there is.
Can I mail you? Or, you can contact me via the site
re: Simon Majumdar
I sent you my e-mail via your site. Good luck. This looks very exciting.
I've lived and worked in Asia, South Amrica, and Africa since 1974. I've only visited the US since then, and always plan my road food adventures there.
If you've lived all this time in the US, my recommendation would have to get out for your year. Then a first priority would be to include street and market foods in Asia. I would definitely include Pakistan, India, Laos, Burma, Vietnam, Thailand, China, Japan, Korea, and Indonesia.
I see that you're already developing plans for Europe.
Mexico is probably the only "must" in the Americas. I say this even though I've lived in Colombia for the past 13 years. I still travel too much, with food being one of the biggest compensations. Still, if the rest of the world is open to you, I would place most of the Americas except Mexico on the back burner (same with sub-Saharan Africa if you only have a year).
While in Italy, cross the Mediterranean just for the night food market in Fez, a World Heritage site.
My remaining unmet food goal is the Middle East. Perhaps you'll have some advice concerning the region as your adventure develops.
re: Sam Fujisaka
Within Sam's recs for Mexico I would definitely recommend a focus on Mexico City with maybe some day trips. Honestly you have a very ambicious plan for just one year, you could take an entire year just to eat your way through this city (15,000 eateries in the tourist & business districts alone... not including any street food or any of the interesting specialties around the fringes of the sprawl). Excluding all types of foreign & fusion food... there are probably a couple hundred different "genres" of Mexican food to explore.
If you go there I will definitely point you in the right direction.
re: Eat_Nopal
If you're making a trip to Mexico, don't to forget to eat at the beachside stands in San Felipe, birthplace of the fish taco.
re: Bostonbob3
Sorry, I wasn't impressed by fish tacos in San Felipe. We just randomly walked into the restaurant row places along the ocean front and didn't find one single good version. I think Ensenada's are much, much, much better.
The best meals I had in San Felipe were steaks oddly enough. Filet in Gorgonzola suace at Red Lobster the Italian restaurant in a colonial building. And a bacon wrapped filet served with Guacamole at an old school Mexican place a few blocks off the main drag.
As far as San Felipe being the birthplace of the fish taco... hardly. Fish tacos have been eaten for eons... at the very least we know Moctezuma had fish tacos among the 300 or so dishes that were regularly prepared for him. Among the tourist beach towns... fish tacos were commonly found in Acapulco before anyone had even heard of San Felipe.
re: Eat_Nopal
First of all, if you're eating San Felipe fish tacos in a restaurant, that's mistake number 1. The best, freshest, most authetic are sold out of little stands near the beach. As for your contention that SF isn't the birthplace of fish tacos, well, that has been under dispute by every burg down the Peninsula. Butr leave it to publicity-craving Acapulco to take credit for it.
re: Bostonbob3
Actually I have never even heard of anyone in Acapulco taking credit for fish tacos. Fish tacos are just such a part of family & casual eating over the ages that no one thinks of them as some novel creation that needs to be claimed.
Granted I am not saying that the fish tacos are the same. For example in Acapulco... the fish is usually poached in a cooked salsa, shredded put into a folded corn tortilla & deep fried.
If you go to Nayarit... it is fish that has been smoked over a grill for a couple of hours, then chopped up & served on a tortilla with a squeeze of lime and very spicy salsa (Chile Piquin or Chiltepin).
Etc., etc.,... the Baja style fish tacos (beer battered, shredded cabbage, cream sauce etc.,) are certainly a regional variation that developed in Baja exclusively.
But to say that San Felipe invented fish tacos (whose fish tacos almost certainly date to the last 100 years) is to ignore Mexico's variety of fish tacos & the country's long culinary history.
re: Eat_Nopal
Also San Felipe is a relatively recent town. Not much history there. Never had a fish taco there that came close to the best I've had in Ensenada.
Best steaks (and quail) that I have had in San Felipe were at El Nido, a steak house down at the southern end of the main drag, not far from the Cortez Hotel. Of course, it has been 3 years or so since I was last there, but I have eaten there a half dozen times over the years and usually had a good time and eaten good, if not great, food.
re: Sam Fujisaka
Sam, just curious why you feel that the Americas should be left on the back burner?
re: bolivianita
Well, I hesitated in saying so, but did include sub-Saharan Africa as well for the back burner. The reason is that Simon only has a year. I've lived and worked all over, and think that the Asian countries mentioned plus selected European countries, plus parts of the US and Mexico, and maybe the Middle East (the area I don't know) will be more than enough.
In the Americas, I've lots of relatives in Peru and Brazil, have worked all over, and have lived long periods in Bolivia and Colombia--and simply would place the other areas as a higher priority for now. Obviously, nothing to do with any prejudice against the Americas. I think trying to go everywhere while really enjoying and learning about different foods would be self defeating.
I would probably plan something like the folowing: a) two months US and Mexico (Simon has already given himself at least two months in the US), b) three months Europe, c) one month Middle East and north Africa, d) 1.5 months south Asia, e) two months SE Asia, f) 1.5 months China, and g) one month Japan and Korea. Europe is "heavy" given already developing plans.
If you are in the US and in the Philadelphia area, feel free to contact me for tips on good cheesesteaks, Amish food, taylor pork roll, soft pretzels & scrapple. If you would like a place to stay or dining companions, my husband and I would be honored!
I will be spending at least two months tootling around the US on this trip and it would be obscene not to have at least one Philly Cheesesteak. So I would be equally honoured
Other plans in the US include trips to lockhart TX, Louisville, Zingerman's in Ann Arbor and many others
I knew that Chowhound would be the place
There is a " GET IN TOUCH" bit on the site where you can contact me
Thanks again
re: Simon Majumdar
Okay, so it's cheesy, but you really should go to the Big Texan Steak House in Amarillo, TX. At least look at the giant steak.
Then eat a reasonable size steak and some fried rattlesnake and wash it down with a quart of Lone Star.
re: Simon Majumdar
Simon.. let me know when you'll be in Louisville, I know some great places to eat.. breakfast lunch and dinner unique to Louisville..
I'm an avid reader of Dos Hermanos and look forward to your upcoming adventure.
Get thee back to Northern California!
Wine making? Rock cod fishing? Cheese tasting at The Cheeseboard? an afternoon making marmalade with an artisnal jam maker?? This is my 2p worth and I'm sure my colleagues on the San Francisco board will jump in with additional suggestions.
I went to your site, read your story and even posted a response. I wrote there, good luck and bon appetit. I should have added, bon voyage.
Read A Cooks Tour by Tony Bourdain if you haven't already. Great to gather ideas, but I figure you may have already....
On the Westcoast of the US, I'd go to the Pacific Northwest for a while...try the local foods in Vancouver, Canada, Seattle and Portland...lots of Salmon and great local produce and ingredients...really fresh and unique types of food...lots of "hippie-ish" types of people that have clean, healthy food and interesting techniques...the seafood is great up here.
California? Perhaps the French Laundry? I haven't eaten there but saw a show on it (BOURDAIN) and it looked incredible. San Francisco also has a lot of great seafood and other interesting places, but I'd mainly try the seafood. Southern California....hmmm....I live here, but not sure if any place is really worth going as a destination as a whole of your world tour....nothing really "worldly", but a number of "good" restaurants....its more a melting pot of a lot of cultures...but you can find better versions in the originating countries
Then maybe spend 2 days in LAS VEGAS trying a variety of output from famous chefs who have opened up shop...Joel Robuchon, Bobby Flay, Emeril Lagasse, Guy Savoy, etc etc etc.
Hit up Houston, TEXAS for BIG MEAT, BBQ, RIBS, ETC
New Orleans, Louisiana is an awesome food city with some unique history. Cajun & Creole Food, oysters, crayfish, beignets, po' boys, etc.....probably my favorite "AMERICAN" food....if I had to go to one city in the USA to try some unique food, it would be New Orleans....fried gator!
re: Xericx
This week's Bordain food odyssey was to Ghana. It looked fascinating and exotic -- and he enthused over everything he ate (on camera, anyway). Next week's show is on the Pacific Northwest.
re: Xericx
Thanks for Mentioning Vancouver (BC). If you make it up here Simon let me know! I'll have you try BC Wines and some amazing seafood :)
Thanks All
I know I am trying to cram in a lot, but I will have to rationalise it as the offers come along
So far, some fun stuff though.
Now all I have to do is organise it:-)
Keep the ideas coming though
Internationally, I've been to England, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Czech Republic, China, and Argentina.
First, go to Italy. Visit the southern regions and familiarize yourself with their pasta, seafood, legumes, fruit, and wine. I don't think there is anywhere better to eat in the entire world.
I also recommend going to Hong Kong. I think it's one of the culinary capitals of the world. They have anything and everything you can imagine. Same with New York. Those are inventive places where you can maximize your gastronomical experiences.
Lastly, have a meal at El Bulli in Spain (Catalonia). It's one of the best restaurants in the world, if not *the* best.
Those are just my thoughts and opinions. Good luck!
Simon, Here's a delightful way to compare food and cultures:
1. Corky's BBQ in Memphis. Order the dry ribs. I have traveled the entire South from the Carolinas through Texas and no BBQ compares. (Although there are many excellent places, Corky's stands out.)
2. Then go to Bucca De San Antonio in Lucca, Italy. Order the roast goat. (A house specialty for 500 years.)
After dining at both Corky's and Bucca De San Antonio, ask yourself just one question: "Does it get any better than this?"
re: Simon Majumdar
That would be eastern NC sauce and the vinegar sauces are very good. Western NC sauce is different and has tomato and sugar in it. If you want lamb/mutton BBQ you will need to be west of Louisville in the Owensboro area. But in Louisville Lynns Paradise Cafe on Barrett for breakfast is great. Lily's on Bardstown RD. is very fine for dinner. For some really good southern cooking about 25 miles out of Louisville, in Shelbyville is an old girls school that has been converted to The Science Hill Inn. Do lunch there and don't pass on the bread pudding with bourbon sauce. If you wander into Indiana be looking for a tenderloin sandwich
re: Candy
YES! Tenderloin sandwiches! I live in California now and that's one of the things I CRAVE! They were always trying to outdo one another in the size department--ending up with comically small buns under a gigantic wave of fried pork...
Then try a brain sandwich in Evansville, IN.
If I were in that area I'd hit up the buffet at Moonlite barbeque in Owensboro, Kentucky.
re: therealbigtasty
Tenderloins are pretty easy to make yourself. Most places use a loin cut but I actually use the pork tenderloin instead. All it takes is cutting the sections and pounding them out dipping in flour, egg wash, and breading and frying. It is pretty simple.
re: Candy
Yeah, I know they're easy...used to make 'em in a restaurant where I worked, but it just isn't the same. I miss tenderloin sandwiches--I'm sad.
You know what I also miss? Sausage gravy and biscuits. Yeah, I can make that at home, but there's something about eating it in a greasy spoon that makes it more special.
re: therealbigtasty
Now that I really prefer to make at home. I'm picky about my biscuits
re: Simon Majumdar
Eastern South Carolina also has vinegar-based BBQ, a tradition it shares in common with my native North Carolina. In fact, SC boasts (at least) four styles of BBQ sauce: vinegar pepper, mustard, thin tomato, and thick tomato. You can find examples of all four in and around Charleston, along with many unique dishes that originated in the Low Country or SC in general, like shrimp and grits, she-crab soup, red rice, Frogmore stew, benne seed wafers, chicken bog, and BBQ hash. All that and Charleston is one of the best restaurant towns in the U.S., maybe even THE best on a per capita basis, though the point could be argued. I will send you an e-mail through your site so you can get in touch if you make it to my neck of the woods. My wife and I would be glad to act as tour guides.
re: Simon Majumdar
Oooooooh, try Dozier's in Fulshear, Texas. Outside of Houston. They have the most amazing homemade sausages in a variety of flavors. I dream of them
re: Simon Majumdar

I had not considered Croatia, but Spain is a bit of an obsession and I am there regularly. Mind you, there is always an excuse for another visit.
re: Simon Majumdar
I was wondering why you left out the obvious like Spain and Italy. But I am guessing that you are based in UK and those countries are probably very well traveled by now.
re: Simon Majumdar
oooooo, i LOVED the food in croatia! my in laws in Italy go often to Croatia to go hunting, and usually eat in Istria (the region near the Italian border), where they have unbelievable homemade pasta with fresh white truffle in cream sauce. Or the chevapcheech (spelling is probably completely wrong but i spelled it phonetically). They are finger like forms of ground beef with lots of garlic and spices, served with a sweet red pepper sauce. But my 2 personal favourites are the pig on a spit that you find all over croatia by the sides of the roads, or the scampi alla buzzera, which are great scampi in a wonderful tomato sauce. im not sure if it is worth it but if you are in the area, you would have a great meal. Other than that, if i had the opportunity i would go to Tuscany and have AUTHENTIC fiorentina steak from the chianina cow! Have fun!
I bet you haven't been here yet. It must be on the way to somewhere:
Just outside Santo Domingo (DR), we turned off the Santiago road. We pulled up outside a big concrete shack called El Boricua for a late breakfast. Inside, I was immediately delighted: it looked like the most basic of barbecue joints - communal tables, and a cow-pen controlling the line to the counter, just like Arthur Bryant's. Pork was clearly on the menu, but of course they weren't smoking it here but cooking it very slow on a spit over hot coals.
Getting to the front of the line, I was helping myself to chunks of roast pork, when a newly cooked suckling pig was brought in and hacked up. Some of that too, then. Also some stewed pork, fork tender, and some very dark longaniza - almost a cross between that rough garlicky sausage and a blood pudding. A bit of yucca, some lime wedges, and your food is weighed and charged by the pound. You can imagine how cheap.
Following the meal, we traced the life-cycle of the pigs in reverse (not for the squeamish). A small gratuity allowed us to be conducted out the back of the shack to where recently slaughtered hogs were being taken apart in a covered, open area. Beyond that, we saw the cooking pits dug into the ground - no open flame, but intensely hot coals and the pigs being slowly turned on spits.
Behind that, and rather richly smelling of piggy poo, many pens containing what seemed to me a bewildering variety of breeds. All kinds of sizes and colorings. And finally, a sort of lying-in area for pregnant and suckling sows. A tinge of sympathy, of course, for the little piglets - but you certainly get to see just what you're eating.
A rough-edged but very large operation; and very well-known I'm told. Pork from El Boricua is often ordered for parties in the city, and it's a long-established favorite.
I miss the fish sandwich on the Galata bridge. The cheapest, the tastiest fish sandwich I had ever had.
Imam bayildi ("imam fainted"), an eggplant dish so good I almost fainted.
Their breakfast! Individual components are almost ordinary (eggs, yogurt, olives, tomatoes, cucumbers...etc.) but you'll love it. Something in their milk, I think.
Lots and lots more. Would love to hear your report.
omg - I just looked at your blog - Malaysia! Our family used to vacation there all the time! Please do not go to the usual places (well, you have to include a few really amazing places) and let me have some vicarious adventure as well as reminiscence.
Looked at the whole journey plan. You need to be a little more specific, don't you think? Good luck.
re: grocerytrekker
I lived in Turkey for a couple of years when I was a kid. My biggest regret is not having been a more adventurous eater. While I was more adventurous than your average kid, there was still more to taste.
I miss it.
Simon, finally read your where and what. Some thoughts:
Pakistan rather than or in addition to Sri Lanka! Definitely Laos and Indonesia and NOT the Philippines. Peru and Bolivia rather than Argentina (unless you really want good meat and more really good Italian), elsewhere in the Caribbean unless you just really want to visit Cuba, Capetown rather than southern Africa.
Since there is already one recommendation for Amarillo, I will add Doug's BBQ on the corner of 34th and Washington Street. Look for the red hole in the wall.
Best series of meals I ever had were made by cooks in Indian family homes, mainly in Bombay. If you go, do everything you can to get invited to dinner. They never disappoint!
Best chicken ever came out of a bucket on the road leaving Chichen Itza ruins in Mexico. Slapped on a grill and wonderful!
re: aebp25
Just in case anyone wonders how I am getting on, I am on the first foreign leg of the trip down under in Australia
I am here for a while then off to Japan, China, Mongolia, Russia and Scandanavia before hitting the US in October and South America in November
Any more suggestions very welcome
re: Simon Majumdar
You can't be in Oz and not then include Vietnam, Laos, and India! China, yes--but Mongolia and Russia? Italy, Spain, and France over Scandinavia. But these are just personal food opinions. Have fun!! Keep us all posted. If you do get to South America, I'll take you out here in Cali, Colombia.
re: Simon Majumdar
You're not going to Canada??
re: Simon Majumdar
If you'll be in Copenhagen...the oldest restaurant in Copenhagen is called De Lille Apotek. While I don't eat they serve (fish of all sorts), it is a good representation of traditional Danish food.
hit one of the food halls in either Illum or Magasin. Much fun. Enjoy a Tuborg along Nyhavn.
In Stockholm, I managed to find what is supposedly the oldest bakery in the city (in gammle stan) and it was very tasty - sit outside for your "fika" (afternoon snack).
re: Jeserf
I will definitely be going to Vietnam etc before I go to India in the New year
Canada also on the North America part of my trip in Oct/Nov
re: Simon Majumdar
Let me know if you swing by Ottawa. While I'm sure you can find tons of stuff in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, there's always less info about Ottawa on the boards and in the mags.
re: piccola
Just an update and a huge THANK YOU to those who have been contact with ideas and invitations.
I am off soon to Japan, Hong Kong, China, Mongolia, Russia and Scandanavia.
After that, almost immediately off to the US where I will be in
KCM - for The American Royal
Ann Arbor
Lockhart TX
Then to Mexico, Argentina and Salvadore, Brazil before heading back to LA and SF
I will be working on a distillery on Islay for a week, then off to Cuba for Christmas and a break before beginning again in the new year with India, South East Asia and Africa.
The trip will finish in the country of my greatest obsession, Spain
I am delighted to say I have agreed a deal for the EAT MY GLOBE book which will be published in May 2009

re: Simon Majumdar
What are the dates you're going to be in Mongolia and Russia? What parts are you visiting? i can throw in some ideas on what not to miss.
re: welle
I will be in Mongolia and Russia from the 2nd Sept - 22nd Sept primarily along the route of the Trans Mongolian railway. Any ideas gratefully recieved
I am also pleased to say that there is now going to be an EAT MY GLOBE book to be published in 2009
Thank you all for the incredible generosity in suggestions and the mails I have recieved with invitations
re: Simon Majumdar
I'm not sure how adventurous eater you are and if you will be getting off the train for a day or two, or are strictly staying on the train.
In any case, your stay is probably not going to be long enough to befriend locals and get some real good food. Commercial stuff could be hit or miss. If you're adventurous enough, September is a season for airag or kumiss, local drink made of fermented mare's milk. But again, I would not recommend trying it without an advice from a local expert (it's like wine good ones are really good and bad ones are gross, so unless you try the best you can't form an objective opinion).
If you're going to be in Phila, you may as well take the 90 minute (by car) journey to Baltimore and indulge in Maryland steamed crabs. It would be a shame to be so close and end up missing that experience. I'd also recommend grazing at the food stalls at Lexington Market, and checking out the crab cakes at Faidley's there.
Also, and this may not fit into your itinerary, I think some of the very best food I've ever eaten in my travels was in Trinidad. (Although not Tobago.) Stick to doubles and rotis, and eat at street stalls. (They are perfectly fine, and no need to check which one has boiling water, or peeled veggies, as you have to do in some places.) Amazing and overlooked cuisine.
I travel in SE Asia often, and the recs on Vietnam and Laos are good...although in VN, I've always had my best meals on the street (literally). I would definitely skip the food in Cambodia. I also don't think you should miss eating in Kuala Lumpur and Penang in Malaysia.
I have to say that when I was in Croatia about four years ago, I was hugely disappointed in the food.
Also, maybe a stop in Bulgaria. During the fall, the very tomatoes on the planet, and fantastic salads and great Bulgarian 'feta.' While you're in that part of the world, the food in Georgia is fresh, innovate, and fantastic!
Edited to say: oopps, didn't read your post close enough. Well, T&T, Bulgaria, and Georgia can be for your next trip!
re: baltoellen
If you really wanted blue crabs it would be cool if you could make the Annapolis MD crabfest, all you can eat blue crabs, crab soup competition normally in August. But you gotta get some MD blue crabs there or in Baltimore.
Also if you are in Barcelona don't miss Commerc 24 (that's the address as well how handy!) and eat anything cuttlefish they have it is so good, one of the best meals I have ever had! And Bar Pinotxo at the Mercat Boqueria there, especially their traditional monkfish stew, and everything else it is all soo good. And make your reservations now for El Bulli. Oh Spain mmmmmm.
While in NOLA you must get beignets at Cafe Du Monde and a mufaletta at the central grocery I know it's already on your list.
re: ktmoomau
Certainly not breaking new ground here, but I found food in Umbria and Campania especially good. Certainly less celebrated (and thus more subject to rustic discoveries) than Tuscany, Bologna, Milan, etc.
There was an interesting point above re: omitting S. American cuisine. I have two somewhat incompatible thoughts on the issue.
First, it seems reasonable to skip over areas with cuisine that both (a) exists principally for simple sustenance as opposed to delight/gustatory pleasure/recreation/crticism, etc.; and (b) lacks flavor of relative complexity or intrigue. As others note, you can't hit 'em all. Having travelled somewhat widely in South America, I can say there are large swaths of interior Ecuador and Peru where virtually all available food is, for lack of a better, politically benign term, peasant food. I am sure that some places make great renditions of it, but boiled potatoes/tubers/starches, simple beans and basic meats on repeat are just not that interesting. (Having said that, the coasts and major cities of both nations have great things (e.g. ceviche and llapingachos) and the mountain regions have their moments-this is a general notion and exceptions abound).
Second, please consider Brasil, a greatly underappreciated food nation. This is the largest nation in S. America, with ethnic and racial diversity that rivals the U.S., a centuries old mix of several indigenous populations, portuguese, africans, and several other european nations. Given this, and geography suitable to massively varied agriculture, the stage is set for deeply interesting food. In the U.S. churrascaria (grilled meats) items and fejioda (black bean stew) are the most familiar, and while there is tremendous churrasco in Brasil, that is just scratching the surface.
In the North the Amazon basin has the greatest biodiversity on earth, and there are fruits, fish and other edibles that simply cannot be found elsewhere. I've eaten things there that are difficult to describe; I once had a shimmering, mysterious soup, whole eggs from unknown fowl aflot, with ribs of a 10 foot long 400 lb. river fish, pirarucu, the size of beef ribs; breakfasts of fresh fruits that continue to blow my mind; a roasted cayman salad.
In Bahia and Northeast, there is a distinctive w. african influenced cuisine that is phenomenal, and is increasingly appreciated in the U.S. as in dishes like moqueca, bobo etc. The food is often based on seafood, rich with peanuts and dende (palm oil), and jolted by the heat of the malagueta pepper. You can get fantastic things from vendors while just sitting on one of the thousands of Atlantic beaches like fresh crab, bolinhos de bacalau, grilled firm cheese, along with the national soda guarana or oversized ice cold beers in cooler sleeves.
In the huge cities of the south, there is an increased continental/Euro/cosmopolitan influence. There are restaurants there that specialize in european cuisines, as well as regional cuisines from around the country. Sao Paolo has a japanese community, and believe it or not I had decent sushi there. Rio has these wonderful suco bars that serve tens or hundreds of fresh squeezed juices from the rain forest fruits mentioned above. You can also find places that make caipirinha style cachaca-based cocktails from these; my favorite is maracuja (local passion fruit).
re: equinoise
Yes, I would go to places lke Belen at the mouth of the Amazon before coming here to Colombia or to neighboring Ecuador or Peru.
re: Sam Fujisaka
I have family in Belem, actually, they run a fishing business there. I have had many fantastic meals there. The most exotic food I've had was in Manaus or at the Ariau Towers lodge further into the forest.
re: equinoise
I love it when the fish come in and the nearby Belen fish market; followed by fish stew and manicoba in the adjacent food stalls.
I worked farther into the forest--Acre and Rondonia. Horrible food for the most part.
I'd include France and Italy among my musts. Have had some terrific mid-range to cheap eats (which is about all my pocketbook can usually handle when I travel) at spots in Paris and Florence, though those spots may not be around anymore.
You might consider poking around a few travel guides for some ideas. And everything I've read about Columbia suggests exercising great caution if you're traveling there.
re: bachslunch
Travel here in Colombia is not so dangerous in the last few years. The food hasn't improved in like manner, however.
Oh, above I meant go to Brasil. Don't come to Colombia or Ecuador for the food. My previous advice was to visit Mexico only in the New World--and then to add some SE Asian countries.
For the joy, the people, and the significance of the cultural crossroads, as well as the food, I humbly suggest the street food in the Muslim Quarter of Xi'an China, the eastern terminus of the Silk Road.
This is exciting! I will be going on a trip around the world in May '09, and will be looking for places to eat, so I'll check back here!

Samsung Galaxy S 3 (Link: Engadget Review)
Here's the new Samsung Galaxy S 3. It's looking to be better than its predecessor, but not by a whole lot. Instead of a 4.3" display, it's 4.8".
The main stand out features are:
- S Voice
- S Beam
- Pop Up Play
I'll go in reverse order.
Pop Up Play is a feature that allows you to continually view videos on the massive display while working on other apps. With a press of a button, the video becomes smaller and you can drag it around the screen. I think it's a bit of a novelty feature. If I were to watch a video and enjoy it, I wouldn't want distractions. And if I wanted to use another app, I don't want distractions there either. The "second screen" phenomena - using an electronic device while watching videos - might be the cause for this feature. Personally, the constant dragging around the screen seems more of a hassle than it's worth.
The S Beam is really cool. Take two Samsung Galaxy S 3's together back-to-back and the photo/video/song is transferred immediately. The only catch is you need another Samsung Galaxy S 3. From what I've learned, Galaxy Nexus is not compatible (despite being made my Samsung). But I could be wrong. Either way, pretty cool. It's sort of like Bump, which is compatible with both iOS and Android.
Last, but certainly not the least, is S Voice. Yes, S Voice where the 'S' stands for Samsung, I guess. It comes with 8 languages, 2 more than Siri. It can do everything Siri can do and more. It can launch apps and take pictures. It even tries to be humorous.
There are also a whole assortment of oddball features. I saw this one feature which I thought was poorly designed. It's a gesture to access the camera right from the phone. You'd think that Samsung would differentiate themselves from Apple by placing a dedicated camera button. Instead, to access the camera through this feature, you tap and hold and then turn your phone 90 degrees. I think dragging from the bottom of the screen upwards is a lot easier…
Well, there you have it. Initial impressions of the Samsung Galaxy S 3. I think it's more of a soft upgrade from the Samsung Galaxy S 2 but still worth buying if you don't already own a Samsung Galaxy S 2.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have had a child in this school for 6 consecutive years and there has been major restructuring changes every year as the school attempts to try to improve their standardized test scores and remove themselves from being a school/district in need of improvement. Curriculum is notably weak and teachers employ strategies such as "busy work" as a means for behavioral control. The principal has attempted to address weak teachers, however he is leaving and there will be a new principal next year. The assistant principal does not present professionally. The communication between parent and teacher varies widely depending upon the teacher, and teacher/parent conferences in the fall yield no real information about your child's learning.
My son is in 5th grade. The math and reading teacher are scattered and disorganized. It felt like I had to do their job for them. I would send emails and constantly did no reply or help with what I requested. The other teachers helped and were very organized. The main problem with this school is the Principal and Vice Principal!!!!! They are never there if you call, I have left many messages and they NEVER returned any of the messages. They don't want to deal with any issues. The vice principal acts like a goofy adult to try to relate to the children that spills over to the way she talks to the parents. She needs to cut out the "comedy act" and act like a respectable adult.
Barrington's multiage configuration for grades 6, 7, and 8 works to teachers' and students' mutual benefit, as the relationship developed over three years allows more individualization of instruction and greater rapport.
Although I fought the multi grade system with my first son, once settled in with the Greenhill team, he excelled. It has its faults, sometimes old material bored him, but sometimes he had a better grasp the second time around, and was very comfortable with the teachers by 8th grade. The team especially inspired creativity in my sons, allowing individuality. These teachers are warm and savvy with kids at this difficult age. Ladder math requirements in the Barrington system confused my kids and set them up for failure.
All the teachers I had were great. They were always wiling to help me with any problems I had. Band was a bad experience but chorus and drama was lots of fun. Art was fun but the class was repetitive and sports were loads of fun and they have a great variety. I loved my coaches but the weren't all great. Middle school was so much fun for me.
I have two children who have recently completed 8th Grade at BMS. We loved the mixed classes (6, 7 & 8th) and both our kids had a fantastic experience at BMS. We found the teachers accessible and encouraging. The music program has one of the most dedicated professionals I have had the pleasure of knowing. We recently moved from Barrington but would recommend the School System k-8th to anyone interested in a school system that encourages parental involvement, provides a challenging academic experience and great sports/musical and artistic opportunities. I understand Mr. Warburton (BMS Principal) has moved on and I don't know the new Principal.
My son has always had problems in school. However I do not feel that the IEP is working and I do not find any other ways to make it so that it will work. I also find that there is alot of confusion with the teams and there is a lack of communication with the parent. I give the school a rating of a d-f.
Barrington Middle school is a new structure and has a great classroom layout, the problem is that my daughter hates the 5th grade, although she has loved school until moving to this school. Her 5th grade teacher refuses to discuss problems that are affecting my daughter and has requested that her mother no longer contacts her verbally or by email. I do not know about the other teachers or administaters, but so far I would have to give Barrington Middle a low 'c' minus for working with my child.

LINCOLN — It turns out that Nebraska's Tatum Edwards was preparing to take over as the Huskers' new ace well before this point in her career, even though she wasn't asked to pitch too often here.
Ashley Hagemann logged 75 percent of the innings for NU's softball team during the last two seasons, while Edwards contributed significantly as a utility hitter. Edwards belted a team-high seven home runs and started every game in 2012, all while managing to quietly monitor Hagemann's demeanor, mechanics and strategy.
