T. A.) The Earl of Balfonr wrote a false bulletin about the Battle of Jutland during the World War Sn that an international ring of Jewish .speculators could clean up on the New York and other stock exchanges, and • Winston Churchill, while Lord of the Admiralty, committed treason, in return for moneys paid him by Jews, according to charges made by Lord Alfred Doug¬ las, notorious as.sociate of OsCar Wilde, in his iibel suit against the London "Morning Post," now before court. The "Post", whicli has an anti-Semi¬ tic history of its own, is being used by Douglas because it printed a letter from the editor of the "Jewish Guardian," in which the editor had declared ttiat Douglas's "Plain English" must no longer be a paying proposition if it was being forced to invent such "vile insults" against the Jews. • Lord Douglas's counsel contended that the question whether the charges against the Jews made in "Plain Eng¬ lish" were rubbish was not the point. The issue. was solely,' he said, whether the statement in the Post letter meant that the charges were due not to Doug¬ las's belief in them but to selfish circula¬ tion reasons. If they were rubbish, he said, the Post itself made similar charges. Among the charges against the Jews, which Douglas made in his paper, and which he reiterated at the trial, declar¬ ing that the Post had shared the same views, was that the Jews organized the French Revolution, the Belshevist Revo¬ lution, ¦ the. Sinn Fein movement—that they engineered the 'Versailles Treaty— that Wilson, Lloyd George and all of the world Jcadcrs were controlled by the , Jews, and the Jews had murdered Kitch- ncr.

Mr, Lewis was born in Wisconsin, in 1888; educated in the public schools of Milwaukee, and at the University of Wisconsin, George Washington Uni¬ versity and the University of Chicago, from which latter imstitution he received the degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence in 1913. He was first appointed as Secretary of the Anti-Defamation League in 1913, re¬ signing in 1917 to enlist as a private in the infantry of the U. S. Army. Upon his discharge from the army in 1910 after eighteen months' service in the American Expeditionary forces in France, during which he reached the rank of captain, he was reappointed as secretary of the League. Mr. Lewis will continue to ,act in that^ capacity. GERHARDT HAUPTMANN > GOING TO PALESTINE VIENNA (J. T..A.)—The J. T.

He has stated that be will consequently not stand any tnore as candidate for the Austrian Chamber.. In 1916, Dr. Fritz Adler killed the then Austrian Premier, Count Stuergh, as a protest against the war. LONDON, (J. T. A.)—Considerable expansion in the economic and labor spheres is indicated in the report of the Palestine Administration ¦¦ for 1922, to¬ day issued.' The economic depression, notwith^taiiiting several important com¬ mercial enterprises, wcre launched and incorporated during the year, the report •shows. , The wide scale building' activ¬ ity resulted in {i decrease in unemploy¬ ment. Attention is called to the fact that while !there has been much "political dis¬ cussion'? in Palestine during the year under review, there were no disturb¬ ances, the discussion being confined to constitutional questions. ^ Improvement Shown Improvement is noted in the railw.ay and postal system, although it is indi¬ cated'that motor transport, which many passgngers prefer, has had a bad effect on the revenue of the government rail¬ ways. iJIhd. Ame.rican J^JMJi^SgjCx'mBanv and' Standara,,On arc mentioned m the re¬ port, the former having opened a bank in Je'rusalem, while the latter applied for a concession for reclamation along the Dead Sea. The report cites the census figures among Jewish workers, showing over 10,000 men and women organized. Of these, some 2,000 are organized in co¬ operative labor associations. Jewish workers' pay and conditions of labor arc shown to be much higher than those of Arab workers employed by Arab em¬ ployers. An abstract of the full report follows: The principal event of the year under review was the' approval by the Council of the League of Nations of the British mandate for Palestine and the additional but.conditional agreement of France and Italy relating to their respective inter¬ ests in Syria. Mention is made of the Palestine Or¬ der in Council decreeing the establish¬ ment of a Legislative Council, and of the order granting a formal commission to Sir Herbert Samuel as High Com¬ missioner for Palestine. The "White Paper" The British Government's White Pa¬ per interpreting the Balfour Declaration favoring the Jewish National Home and the resolution of the Council of the League of Nations excluding Trans¬ jordania from' Articles of the Palestine Mandate are also cited. Measures taken in concert with the Zionist Organization in matters affecting the establishment of the Jewish National Home are covered in the report, which shows that while there had been much political discussion during the year, it was along constitutional lines, no dis¬ turbances occiirring any vvhere. Government revenues for 1921 and 1922 amounted to £E2,312.2t3, as against an expenditure of iEl,881,108. The sur¬ plus, however, may not be retained by the government but is chargeable to any liability whith Palestine jnay owe. on ac¬ count of the Ottoman debt to be im¬ posed under the Turkish Treaty. The general economic depression did not affect adversely Palestinian trade to an appreciable extent. Imports and ex¬ ports inc^-cased, altliough values had fallen. Continuous expansion is. noted in internal commerce. Twenty new companies were incorporated while there were, neither bankruptcies nor compul¬ sory liquidations of established firms. Country-wide building activity resulted in the absence of considerable unem¬ ployment. The agricultural recovery, too, was satisfactory. The area of cul¬ tivation had been increased. Tobacco- growing is ¦ making rapid strides and the last orange season was unusually profitable.

EPSTEIN Special Jerusalem Correspondent ". . . and as you tell me there is a demand for first class .stenographers in Palestine. I have no doubt I shall soon find a suitable post." Hard upon, the letter to her friend came the writer lierself. She had now been a week in the Land of Israel, which she spent in Jerusalem where she found an excellent Government position await¬ ing her. She was to begin on the first of next month and meanwhile was see¬ ing the sights. She was pleased with everything. Jeru-salem was really quite modern. Automobiles and public motor-busses conveyed you from end to end of the city; the shops had every¬ thing you wanted milliners and dress¬ makers (with taste) abounded; there were dances and concerts and tea gar¬ dens ; even accoinmodation with bath¬ room could be found. Her fear of be¬ ing "buried alive" in old Jerusalem van¬ ished, and after a ball given by an Eng¬ lish Club she confessed she was having a giddy time. ¦ Now, before settling down to work, she proposed lo visit one or two colonies and.I suggested the new colMlies in the "Emek," The journey north, through the: hills of Judea and S^fnaria was pleasant but did not excite I her. She was not impressed by"the Ar^b town of Nablus or the primitive village of Jenin, and she asked whether the Jewish set¬ tlements were of the sanie type. I tried to explain what the. colonies, thp life of the farm, the tilling of the soil, meant to us as a people; I dwelt on ,the ideal of the Haluzim'.s return to the land; I spoke of how they wve free and how through them our nation 'was finding its freedom. Biit my words found no lis¬ tener in the New York girl. Lwas talk¬ ing to one who did not understand. When she began to hum a fox-trot tune I gave up my explanations. In silence the car pushed ahead towards the Valley of Jezreel. It was in Afuleh that the ^[onderful thing ihappened. The chauffeur pulled up for benzine or water, and I, to whom the scene was familiar, did nc| trouble to leave the car.

Wise. .\ special place will be hollowed out in one of the foundational walls to re¬ ceive the stone, so as to make it a part of the foundation' of the structure. The stone will be marked by a metal plate bearing an appropriate inscription. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, while visiting * liright sun and very cheap; in the fields beyond Jewish, haymakers singing as they worked. There was a rattle of cart and horses, and a voice hailed me. Reins in hand, standing up in his rude wagon, the owner of the voice looked the picture nf health. Bronzed face, broad chest and strong ars; his shirt open and the shirt-sleeves rolled, up to the elbows allowing his hard muscles; farmer's breeches and leggings; and a smile that showed content and happiness. He looked like the figure in the Jewish Na¬ tional Fund's Golden Book Certificate. He had j'ust brought in the daily supply of milk from Merhavia, for Afuleh is llio station for that "kevuzah," and he was taking back supplies. We engaged in conversation. He gave me news of the farm (they had killed a cow the previous day and that was an event in Merhavia), and I told him of the Jittle- tatilc of politics as it was understood in Jerusalem. I did' not notice that the girl had approached us. "Won't you introduce me?" she whis¬ pered. "Certainly -^ but you don't speak He¬ brew, do you?" However, I offered to interpret. .. She asked the young farmer ever' so many questions and' he was amused at licr ignorance of the life in the colonies, but he seemed very keen on interesting her. , ¦ ¦ "The Kevuzah is a cooperative group," he explained. "We don't own the land. It belongs to the Jewish people and it is leased to us by the Jewish National Fund. We are forty-six "souls, all told. Some look after the dairy, others attend to the crops and the fruit plantations. Those eucalyptus trees alongside the railway line,were planted by us." "And have you any girls, too, among you?" she asked, "Of course! What farm is complete without girls?" he answered. I He had not meant it as a compliment —it was a plain statement of fact,—but she blushed at his straightforward glance and frank smile. "Why not pay u? a visit ?" he asked. ¦ I had given my assent before she had framed in words the questipn in her {Concluded on page 5.)

After a long and diligent search, however, it was retraced and safely brought to its destination. The building which is to contain the stone from King Solomon's Temple will house the Jevvish Institute of Religion established by Rabbi Wise last year. The Institute is now conducting its first Sum¬ mer School at 3i) West C8th Street. On the teaching staff of the school is the noted English schol.ir. Rev. Dr, R. Travers Herford, who arrived from London last week. He is the head of the Dr. Williams Library of that city and has gained an international reputa¬ tion by his studies of Jewish Talmudic literature. Dr. Herford is one of the few Christian scholars who enjoy that distinction. He has won especial rec¬ ognition by his book called "Pharisa¬ ism" in which he proves that Pliarisaisiii was not the religion of the letter it is customarily assumed to have been. Upon his arrival. Dr. Herford was greeted at an informal gathering of Jewish and Christian scholars. In the latter part of the week a luncheon in honor of the distinguished visitor will be given in one of the hotels of the city. Leaders of thought and teachers repre¬ senting various denominations will at¬ tend the luncheon. Rabbi Wise, who is now summering at Lake Placid, N. Y., will return to the city to officially wel¬ come Dr. Herford. The lectures of the eminent scholar, given every morning from 9 to 11, are attracting, lay listeners in addition to those registered at the Summer School. COUNCIL JEWISH WOMEN PLANS CAREERSFOR DEAF Mrs. Sidney M. Stern of Philadel¬ phia Reports Progress Among the Unfortunate '¦¦. MANY CITIES ASSIST IN WORK FOR THE DEAF One of the activities of the National Council of Jewish Women which has made remarkable progress during the past three years is its work among the deaf throughout the country. Mrs. Sid¬ ney M. Stern, of Philadelphia, National Cliairman of the Committee on Deaf, has announced that an increasing num¬ ber of Council Sections are entering this field and are promoting programs on their own initiative or in cooperation with existing institutions. The program that has been forwarded by the Council Sections include such service as the fol¬ lowing : An effort to make a thorough survey of the deaf in the local communities; to establish a relationship with existing in¬ stitutions for the deaf; to render per¬ sonal service; to provide classes in lip- reading and also night classes for the foreign born deaf. A group of religious activities have always been stressed, in¬ cluding religious instruction; religious services, a special Seder during Pass¬ over, and a special edition of the prayer- book. In the city of Baltimore, under the auspices of the local Council Section, classes in lip-reading have been insti¬ tuted. T^is remarkable service to these unfortunate men and women has been the source of joy and happiness to many. The Cincinnati Section has been offering the same opportunity for its deaf and at present two classes for adults have been established. The Dayton, Ohio, Section has made very frequent surveys in the local community and^has advised un¬ fortunate men and women to avail them¬ selves of the benefits offered by the local League of the Hard of Hearing. In Hartford, Conn., the local committee on deaf has arranged for an annual outing'' i'-' ¦L {¦¦¦ I ¦ t i Cor^tlte Jevvi.?h deaf, iind isyerfc%|,^s|''''^".',:/rK].-'^, •¦'?!. DRUNKEN CZAR CAUSED KITCHENER'S DEATH, - SAYS RASPUTIN'S AIDE NEW YORK (J. T. A.)-New light on the death of Lord Kitchener is thrown by the memoirs written by Aaron Sem- inowitch, secret;ary of Riasputin, the monk, who exerted an overpowering in¬ fluence on the late Czair's family. According to excerpts of the meinoirs printed in the Jewish Morning Journal yesterday, Rasputin told ¦ Seminowitch that the Czar was the only one to get word from England that Kitchener was bound for Russia. The Czar, however, admitted to Ras¬ putin that he had drunk excessively shortly after the receipt of the secret message and as a result had spoken too much, conveying the news of Kitchener's prospective arrival to his friend Voyu- koff, who in turn passed it on to the German spy, Prince Adranikoff. The Germans thereupon laid in wait for the ship and sank it, Seminowitch says. dn7«;d^?»r-ifi^deaf 'chiidr'eri.'' During" Passover there was a special Seder to which they were invited. The Hartford Section carries on its work in coopera¬ tion with the American School for the Deaf in that city. In Indianapolis, Ind., the women of the Section lend their aid to the State Institute in tbeir community. There are 3 Jewish children at this State home who have received all possible courtesies on all occasions. It also as¬ sisted in securing a scholarship for an unfortunate boy to the National School' at Washington, D. C. The Kansas City, Mo. Section has realized the great need for preventive work and so it has limited its efforts to work among those whose hearing is slightly impaired. In this way it hopes ' to avoid the intensification of its prob¬ lem among its people. Similar preven¬ tive work is sponsored by the - Little Rock Section, which distributed pamph¬ lets in the public schools. The members of the National Council of Jewish Women have realized the evi¬ dent need for educational work on ques¬ tions affecting the deaf and accordingly propaganda literature has been dis¬ tributed throughout the United States and Canada, urging educational pro¬ grams. The Minneapolis Section ar¬ ranges for frequent speakers in coopera¬ tion with the Minneapolis League for Hard of Hearing. During tho coming year it will increase the scope of its Section's activities '^by rendering per¬ sonal service in cooperation with its local institutions. About 35 children re- cciv'c religious instruction in the New York Talmud Torahs through ^subsidy granted by the New York Section. The New York City Committee his been de¬ voting its activities to the Jewish chil¬ dren in one of the public schools. The Philadelphia Section had 118 individuals attending a recent Seder. It also pro¬ vides classes for the deaf in the night schools, distributes leaflets on the care of the ears ih public schools, Americani¬ zation classes and Saturday afternoons religious meeting. | B'NAI B'RITH DISTRICTS IN PALESTINE AND POLAND CHICAGO (J.

Daulerio7/09/08 4:30pmFiled to: EspnBonnie BernsteinJemele HillDana JacobsonTopMedia Meltdowns1231EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink That's the question posed by MarketWatch columnist Jon Friedman, who gives the WWL a thorough Bissingering based on the recent "lowbrow or boorish behavior" of some of ESPN's talent. Specifically, the incidents involving Jemele Hill, Dana Jacobson, and Bonnie Bernstein, respectively. Friedman's piece, titled "ESPN: The sports leader in embarrassment" goes after Senior Vice President and Executive Editor John Walsh for an explanation to the recent spate of inappropriateness coming out of Bristol. Walsh answered carefully, explaining that he feels all of the incidents were handled appropriately and that, considering the enormous amounts of media content they push out, three incidents are not so bad. Advertisement Advertisement "We'd rather the scoreboard says none," Walsh said. "But if the scoreboard says three (examples), we endure." He called them "three separate instances" and added: "Trying to group them together, I think, would not be a wise thing for you."Friedman disagrees. In his story he writes, "In the news business, journalists will chalk up something out of the ordinary as an aberration. But when it happens twice, we wonder if it is a pattern. By the third time, it can reasonably be called a trend" and "ESPN rejects the idea that there is a pattern of recklessness in its ranks, but I'm not so sure."Yes, that ESPN is contributing to the collective dumbing-down of our society with its lowbrow humor and boorish behavior. Welcome to the new media landscape. Sponsored Update: ESPN VP Of PR Josh Krulewitz sent this comment to Deadspin about Friedman's column:"Obviously we disagree with the premise of an ESPN trend. As we said, the three incidents in the article were very unfortunate, yet unrelated. Mistakes happen across our industry and others. We tend to be the focus given the large amount of content we produce and the more than 1,000 personalities we employ. What's important is, when situations arise, we take them seriously and address them." I guess they only address these issues with the women.ESPN: The sports leader in embarrassment [MarketWatch]Reply123 repliesLeave a reply

Top Speed Hobbies llc. Gotta Need For Speed..
$1,500.00????? LMAO! It's not exactly a collectors item. They're poorly built from front to rear as Pro Boat was more worried about it looking like the real thing than how it ran. The smaller nitro version had that problem also. They sold a ton of those because of what I call the "Golly, Gee Whiz" factor as a lot of people bought one because it was a boat that just about everyone knows and could relate to, Owners were first-time boaters who didn't have a clue on how to run a boat. After being frustrated most of those went on eBay.
You might get half of what you're asking if you're lucky.
269 Racing Team
I hate to say this but, in all honesty, without some serious "remodelling", that boat will be coming back to you in a much less than "pristine" condition. They are very tail heavy and that, unfortunately, makes them unstable and prone to blowing over. Anyone that tries to "hop up" that boat may try to send it back to you and demand a refund since you sold them a defective product
HJ pretty much hit it. They're really tail-heavy because of trying to get everything under the cowl to make it appear more realistic and with the radio box so far aft the boats handle more like a flat-bottomed boat than a true hydroplane, Pro Boat boats, not just yours in the gas and nitro versions (Which BTW puts your in the wrong forum here seeing how it's gas, not nitro powered) just have a lot of issues out of the factory. Mostly with the little things that all add up, flex cables installed improperly that cause breakage, a rudder that isn't made to break away in case of hitting something (Pro Boat actually ran out of replacement rudders at one point as it was covered under their warranty) and other little bugs. Had they moved the engine and radio box further forward plus fixed what all was wrong with it then they in turn would have sold more of these. There was no big name that anyone really knew that did the R&D work like AquaCraft who has Mike Zaborowski. They've got some guy named Darrin (sp.?) who later I found out about but still not a name that most of us know. I've know Mike since long before he went to work for AquaCraft and know his race record.
We're not trying to embarrass you or anything close to that, just filling you in with the facts. Good luck on getting what you can out of it as there may be someone out there looking for just what you have.
The other companies have also been know to put out some duds like AquaCraft. The V-24 was a joke as the hull separated at the seam. The Fuji engines were junk. That's why they made a Rio 51 Z version as they started putting Zenoah's in them. They companies start with a boat and a price point then do what they can to keep the price reasonable even if corners are cut.
For $1,500.00 I can honestly build a boat that will run at twice the 35 MPH and out-handle that boat with top-of-the-line equipment.
269 Racing Team
one used to run here at our pond -basically the guy had a full race set-up under a hull that wasnt ever meant to handle it(with way to much cash invested into it)--Only after strapping on bags of lead shot to the front sponsons and adjusting those to keep it planted on the water did the boat actually hold well---it was the fastest gas proboat ive ever seen until he put one of my good 3 blade props on it and again it flew off the water--the boat is and never will be a race boat BUT if you dont expect it to be and just want a fun boat to run kind of like a Sunday cruiser than a few simple mods and its not bad--and NO HJ its no where near a "true" scale hull lol
I don't mean to hijack this thread but am interested in Ron's comments on the V24. We have one, probably 5 years old by now and though we don't run it often it probably has 4 or 5 hours on it. What are the issues? Other than the pipe coupler we haven't had any problem. It is not as fast as I expected but is a fun sport boat in our pond. Is there a thread on it? Thanks.
Rick H.
Boy, is this site slow at getting notifications out, I just got it.
The V-24 has a lot of reports of the hull splitting at the seam, if yours is staying together then you're one of the lucky ones. There were a lot of issues get the engine running. After AquaCraft came out and finally started using the Zenoah's then Mike amitted to me himself as to how bad those engines really were. AquaCraft does what they can as far a QC goes as they do random checks on every load that they get in Champaign, IL.
You'd think that because a boat may come from a big name that they shouldn't have problems. The Venom's are yet another like the KOS Cat's. They literally start falling apart as soon as they hit the water. We had a guy show up one day to run with us and let my son take his for a spin. My son is now 26 so it's not it was a little kid driving it but he said that it was the worst handling boat that he'd ever driven and he's driven a lot of boats in his time, not just mine.
Every company has their Chevy Vega or Ford Pinto. Mike at AquaCraft has put in up to 2 years of R&D work into some boats but what happens next is out of his hands. His higher-ups have the final word on any boat that they make although his name is the one that gets put on the box top and decals.
269 Racing Team
Apparently the asking price is down to 1k but still seems expensive
23 year old guy. I have a Need 4 Speed. Love RC, Sports, Lifting, Movies. I run my own RC Boats store and love it
If you need any help ask me and I will do my best help.
If you're interested then make an offer.
Just because something isn't made anymore and is NIB doesn't mean the it will accumulate value. When AquaCraft quit making the Rio 51 (not the Z) they were just abut giving them away. I could have bought the whole thing RTR for about what a bare fiberglass hull goes for.

It is obvious (and unfortunate!) that scientists seeking to expand scientific knowledge, often fail to reach beyond the boundaries of what is considered 'scientifically, or politically correct'. To be fair, I refer only to those scientific structures that create the theoretical molds that hold all the information we know about us and everything that surrounds us-the structures that cool and stabilize the information poured into those molds-the structures that permit unquestioned one-sided presentation of so-called "knowledge" in public forums, scientific conferences, schools, etc. It is possible to challenge or even overturn the accepted theories, but only within the scope of these limiting structures.

Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Holocaust Almanac: Sobibor's New Administration (Summer, 42) Reply-To: firstname.lastname@example.com Followup-To: alt.revisionism Organization: The Nizkor Project, Vancouver Island, CANADA Keywords: Bauer,Frenzel,Niemann,Reichleitner,Sobibor,Stangl,Wagner Archive/File: holocaust/poland/reinhard/sobibor sobibor.09 Last-modified: 1993/03/24 "With the expansion of the camp [ed: during the summer and early fall of 1942] came a change in administration. Captain Stangl was promoted to Kommandant of Treblinka, the larger death camp just beginning to exterminate the Jews from the Warsaw ghetto. Captain Franz Reichleitner, Stangl's Austrian friend from the old euthanasia program days, replaced him. Reichleitner was a tall, heavyset soldier who walked with a grace one did not expect from a large man. He was stricter than Stangl, but much more friendly and accessible to the Germans and Ukrainians. The Jews rarely saw him, and when they did, it was only to hear him shout, `Idiot, hurry up ... Idiot, faster ... Idiot, not that way, this way.' The Jews nicknamed him 'the Idiot.' His office assistant was Johann Niemann, a slim, withdrawn man who kept to himself and liked to ride around the camp on horseback. The Jews rarely saw him, either. They nicknamed him `Johnnie.' Under the new system, Gustav Wagner became a roving supervisor responsible for the overall performance of the worker Jews; SS Sergeant Karl Fenzel was placed in charge of Camp I and took over Wagner's duties when the Austrian was on leave; SS Sergeant Erich Bauer was in charge of the gas chamber. The Jews called him the Badmeister, `the Bathmaster.' ... With the expansion came a new wave of Germanic discipline. The Jews were divided into work brigades supervised by Kapos - Jews with whips and the authority to use them. Whistles and bugles called them to get up, work, eat, and sleep. ... Work in Camp III was maddening. Jews committed suicide there or, unable to eat or sleep, wore themselves out. Most just gave up and died. To make matters even worse, Kapo Franz, appointed by the Nazis to supervise the Camp III workers, went quite mad. He was only eighteen ... The fatigue, horror, and the responsibility had gotten to Franz, and he began to think of himself as an SS man and Jews as termites to be exterminated. Like an SS officer, he wore shiny black boots, polished by some tired Jew, and pranced around with his whip, arrogant and vain. His delusions had reached such a state that he became even crueler than the Nazis and Ukrainians. ... Out of sheer desperation, the Camp III Jews began digging a tunnel. When the Nazis found out about it, ... they selected every second Jew ... and lined them up. While the other fifty were ordered to sing a melancholy German ballad, they shot the Jews two at a time."

FOXBORO, MA -- The Patriots won their first game of the 2003 exhibition season, beating the New York Giants 26-6 in front of a wet crowd on a rainy evening in Foxboro.
New England got good production from their defense, forcing four turnovers, including two fumbles and two interceptions. The defense caused the Giants problems for much of the evening, and those problems started during New York's opening drive.
On the Giants second offensive play from scrimmage Patriots free agent linebacker Roosevelt Colvin forced New York runningback Tiki Barber to cough up the football and Ted Johnson recovered, giving the Patriots the ball at the New York 22-yard line.
New England struck right away. A 13-yard run by Kevin Faulk set up a 16-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Tom Brady to wide receiver Troy Brown, giving the Patriots a 7-0 lead they would never relinquish.
Brady finished the night 3-of-4 for 25-yards and a touchdown.
Meanwhile rookies Eugene Wilson and Asante Samuel got the start at left and right cornerback, and according to Patriots head coach Bill Belichick "did some good things". Fifth-round draft choice Dan Klecko also caught the eye of fans during the game. He spent time at the nose tackle spot but spent much of the evening working from the outside, putting pressure on Giants quarterbacks and also had the best night of the rookies and the team defensively. Klecko finished tied for first with 7-total tackles, but lead the team with 2.5 sacks during the game and spent much of the evening in New York's backfield.
However despite Klecko's performance Belichick was quick to point out after the game he still has plenty of work to do.
"It looked like he made a couple of plays, it looked like he screwed up a couple," Belichick told the media after the game. "We played him where he's been playing, he worked a little bit inside, a little bit outside. It was good to be able to get him an opportunity to play in those spots and we'll take a closer look at it on tape. I think there were some good things, and there were probably some things that weren't that good."
The Patriots next points came following an interception by Tyrone Poole, which gave New England excellent field position at the Giants 10-yard line. But the Patriots would have to settle for a 25-yard field goal by Adam Vinatieri, increasing their lead to 10-0.
But New York would get on the board after they returned the ensuing kickoff 37-yards, giving them good field position at their own 44-yard line. They would end up settling for a 29-yard field goal by Mike Hollis to cut the lead to 10-3.
The Patriots answered on their next possession following a 32-yard reception by tight end Christian Fauria from second string-quarterback Damon Huard along with a 13-yard grab by David Givens. The two plays helped set up a 39-yard field goal by Vinatieri, increasing New England's lead back to 10 at 13-3.
The Giants would later add another field goal following completions of 25, and 22-yards from J. Palmer to Ron Dayne and M. Rivers. Matt Bryant connected from 34-yards out to cut the lead back to 7, but that was as close as they would get.
New England's final touchdown came in the third quarter following a 42-yard pass from Rohan Davey to Bethel Johnson, giving the Patriots the ball at the Giants 8-yard line. Two plays later Davey found Fred McCrary in the endzone from 6-yards out for a touchdown, putting the game out of reach at 20-6.
Vinatieri would later add field goals of 24, and 46-yards, accounting for the Patriots final 6-points (12-total) and finishing a perfect 4-of-4 on the evening.
The Patriots next preseason game is next Saturday night in Washington against the Redskins.

KUALA LUMPUR – Malaysia on Sunday rejected claims that phone calls were made from missing Flight MH370 before it vanished, but refused to rule out any possibility in a so far fruitless investigation over the cause of the jet's disappearance.
The New Straits Times, quoting an anonymous source, had reported Saturday that co-pilot Fariq Abdul Hamid made a call that ended abruptly, possibly "because the aircraft was fast moving away from the (telecommunications) tower."
There had also been unconfirmed reports of calls by the Malaysia Airlines plane's captain, Zaharie Ahmad Shah, before or during the flight.
Malaysian Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told reporters Sunday that authorities had no knowledge of any calls made from the jet's cockpit.
"As far as I know, no," he said when asked if any calls had been made.
However, he added that he did not want to speculate on "the realm of the police and other international agencies" investigating the case.
"I do not want to disrupt the investigations that are being done now not only by the Malaysian police but the FBI, MI6, Chinese intelligence and other intelligence agencies," he said at a news conference in Kuala Lumpur.
Hishammuddin also said no passenger on the plane had been cleared in the criminal investigation into the fate of the flight, clarifying an earlier indication from Malaysia's police chief.
"The inspector general of police said at that particular point in time there is nothing to find suspicion with the passenger manifesto but . . . unless we find more information, specifically the data in the 'black box,' I don't think any chief of police will be in a position to say they have been cleared."
The police chief also clarified last week that passengers had not categorically been cleared as the investigation was ongoing.
Pilots Fariq and Zaharie have come under intense scrutiny since the plane vanished en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board on March 8, with still no clue as to the cause of the disappearance.
Investigators last month indicated that the flight was deliberately diverted and its communication systems manually switched off as it was leaving Malaysian airspace, triggering a criminal investigation by police that has revealed little so far.
A number of theories have been put forward, including hijacking, a terrorist plot or a pilot gone rogue, with authorities grasping at straws as to the fate of the plane without crucial data from the jet's black box, which has yet to be located, and no wreckage found.
Several sonic pings that authorities have said are consistent with a black box have been detected by ships in the search area in the remote southern Indian Ocean, off the west coast of Australia.
But Australia's Joint Agency Coordination Centre, which is leading the search for the plane, said Sunday that another 24 hours had passed without a confirmed signal, increasing fears that batteries in the beacons attached to the plane's two black boxes may now have run out.
The last pings were detected Tuesday.
There were 12 aircraft and 14 ships combing a 57,506 sq/ km (22,200 sq. mile) region of the Indian Ocean on Sunday, 2,200 km northwest of Perth, including Australia's Ocean Shield, which is using a U.S. Navy towed pinger locator to pick up the hoped for black box signals.

The markets are awash with surveys, asking people what it is they want, most desire, would kill for, and so on. This is especially true in the smartphone and tech sector, where emotions run high, brand loyalty is paramount, and the rivalry between devices can be as polarizing as the competition between the Red Sox and Yankees. Numerous polls indicate which gadget people plan on buying next — very few, however, point to which ones people want nothing to do with.
Fortunately, the world has the Raymond James research firm, which set out to determine which smartphone gadget repelled people the most. As it turns out, the majority of respondents in the survey were most turned off by BlackBerry (NASDAQ:BBRY), which took the top spot as the least-wanted phone out of the three major contenders. Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android followed, and Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) iPhone came in last — or first, depending on how you look at it.
Seventy-one percent of respondents said that they would never purchase a BlackBerry, 31 percent said they would never purchase an Android, and 19 percent said they would never purchase an iPhone. Figures on how many people participated in the survey were not offered, nor were any factors indicative of demographic.
While the information is certainly interesting — and admittedly not wholly surprising — these kinds of questions should be taken with a grain of salt. Negative experiences tend to run emotions higher than positives ones (typically, a patron who had a decent experience will be far less moved to write about it, or pass the word along — conversely, a person with a bad experience will jump on the opportunity to share just how bad the experience was). Therefore, when polling people in a negative frame by asking what device they would never get, emotional temperatures will tend to run hotter, and more people will be moved to voice their opinions.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Everybody knows how the U.S. auto industry has rebounded robustly from its years of depression. Previously pariahs on Wall Street, shares of General Motors (GM) and Ford (F) are now tracking on the fast lane, speeding up to new high price levels. Their turnaround and that of the industry is now legend, but some industry players have yet to catch as much investor attention.
One such company is Lear (LEA), one of the world's largest suppliers of automotive components for vehicle manufacturers worldwide, whose stock has been on the rise during this bull market -- but not as much as it deserves. Of late, more investors have discovered the stock after S&P Capital IQ highlighted Lear as its "Focus of the Week" on Aug. 25. The stock was trading at $97 a share when S&P published its highly bullish appraisal, but It has since gone up to $101, very close to its 52-week high of $101.71.
But Lear's stock has a lot more upside, according to Efraim Levy, analyst at S&P Capital IQ, who recommends the stock as a "strong buy." Lear has attractive total return potential, he points out. Levy predicts the stock will hit $130 a share in 12 months. "We expect Lear will benefit from rising global vehicle demand, led by growth in the U.S., China, and improvement in Europe, while maintaining a supportive balance sheet," says Levy. His forecast assumes the euro will stay at its recent levels.
Levy figures Lear will generate revenues of about $17.8 billion in 2014 and $18.9 billion in 2015, up from last year's $16.2 billion. The outlook for Lear's earnings are also positive, says the analyst, who forecasts the company will earn $7.90 a share in 2014, supported by executed and projected stock repurchases, rising to $9.25 in 2015. The company earned $4.99 last year.
Lear is a Tier-1 supplier of seating and electric power management systems to global vehicle makers. The seating systems include seat frames, recline mechanisms, seat tracks and trim covers, headrests, and seat foam. The electric power system includes electrical distribution systems for traditional powertrain vehicles, as well as for hybrid and electric vehicles.
Lear's biggest customers -- General Motors, Ford, and BMW – accounted for 54% of revenues last year. Sales in North America accounted for 38% of 2013 revenues, with Europe and Africa providing 38%, Asia 18%, and South America 6%,
Lear's recent agreement to purchase Eagle Ottawa, the world's leading supplier of automotive leather, for $850 million, "offers multiple positives for Lear," says Levy. The company expects immediate accretion of 5% to earnings per share in 2015, notes the analyst, "implying an increase of 46 cents a share applied to our $9.25 projection" for 2015. In addition, the deal would enhance Lear's competitive position in the seating business and "synergistically enhance growth for Lear," says Levy.
Brian A. Johnson, analyst at Barclays Capital Markets, upgraded his recommendation on Lear in August to "overweight" on the premise, he says, that Lear is a "hidden mega-trends" company with a "very attractive electrical power management business that is now coming into its own, outweighing secular pressures on its seating unit." The strong second-quarter results at Lear were driven by both the seating and electrical segments, notes Johnson. He has a stock price target of $113 a share, reflecting his expectation of "stronger revenue growth in seating and better margin performance of the electrical segment."
Johnson believes the stock should rise as further margin expansion is realized in Lear's electrical unit which, he says, "positions Lear as a hidden 'Connected Car' company." As such, he sees a possibly much higher valuation for the stock. He figures that by simply applying the average EBITDA-to-enterprise value multiple of auto suppliers to Lear's 2015 estimated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, "implies a $140 stock."
Also a big bull on Lear is John Murphy, analyst at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, who has raised his price target to $115 a share from $110 after Lear posted its second-quarter results. He notes that the company has improved its balance sheet and cost structure over the past 5 years which, he says, should provide ample liquidity to fund Lear's growth plans and to drive additional shareholder-friendly moves, including increasing dividends and share repurchases. At the same time, he expects margins to expand further as Lear's electrical business contributes a larger percentage of revenues and profits.

Author Dr. Richard Wrangham and The Raw Foodist: Suggestions for a Diabetic
Health Guide
Raw foodists might be happy to see some of what Dr. Richard Wrangham writes in Catching Fire: How Cooking Made Us Human. This book, which came out just this year, is one of the most stimulating reads I've ever found.
"Raw-foodism is a good way to lose weight," Dr. Wrangham writes. He is a professor of biological anthropology at Harvard University, the curator of primate behavioral biology at the Peabody Museum, and the director of the Kibale Chimpanzee Project in Uganda.
All of the studies of the body weight of raw-foodists have found that they tend to be thin. Maybe this is why the participants in the raw food diet program that Gabriel Cousens, M.D., developed did so well in controlling their diabetes. The film "Simply Raw," which I reviewed positively here last year, focuses on the experiences -- both positive and negative -- of six people with diabetes from around the country who took this program. Simply losing weight goes a long way toward diabetes control.
Raw-foodists report a sense of well-being, better physical functioning, less pain, more vitality, and improved emotional and social performance. Researchers have found improved serum cholesterol and triglyceride values. Raw foodists, unlike people who cook their food, also don't need to be concerned about the Maillard reaction, which we know as advanced end products (AGEs).
On the other hand, raw diets cause health problems. They include low bone mass in the back and hips, low levels of vitamin B12, low levels of the good HDL cholesterol and high levels of homocysteine, which may cause heart disease.
Those side effects don't show up right away. But others do. Eating nothing but raw food can make you pee a lot. The participants in studies of raw food diets were constantly hungry. Still, the basic problem with a raw food diet is that it doesn't give us enough energy, Dr. Wrangham concludes.
All of us can appreciate how cooking makes our food safer, improves the taste of our food, and reduces spoilage. It lets us open, cut, or mash tough foods. But few of us appreciate the key benefit, that cooking increases how much energy we get from food.
Other animals don't need cooked food. We do.
In the past anthropologists differentiated humans from other animals by calling us "Man the Tool-Maker," "Man the Hunter," and "Man the Meat Eater." Dr. Wrangham says the evidence suggests that "Man (and Woman) the Cook" came first.
Our bodies started to change about 1.8 to 1.9 million years ago. That's when Homo erectus emerged from its australopithecine ancestors and began to master fire and started to cook much of its food.
"After our ancestors starting eating cooked food every day," Dr. Wrangham writes, "natural selection favored those with small guts, because they were able to digest their food well, but at a lower cost than before. The result was increased energetic efficiency."
While we have smaller intestines than any other primates near in size to us, this is hardly all. We also have small mouths, small lips, weak jaws, small teeth, and small stomachs. Unlike the apes, we don't need these large body parts.
The energy trade off of a smaller digestive system means that we can have something that requires a disproportionate amount of energy, our big brains. All this and more because our ancestors learned to cook our food.
Now, all this is but the briefest summary of the case that Dr. Wrangham offers. I highly recommend that you read his new book.
If all you want to do is lose weight, you might consider a raw food diet. Personally, I prefer to preserve my energy too.

To be honest, there's always a slight absence of something when reviewing a game's soundtrack without having actually played the game first. Often enough, the events transpiring in gameplay accompanied by the song add to its likeability (or the listener's distaste for the track). But, despite all this being absent, Growlanser II's OST still manages to stand out to my ears, albeit as nothing more than a typical "old school" sounding OST.
For many, this may not be an appealing asset to the game. But for others, including myself, a little nostalgia that leads to a trip down memory lane is a pleasant experience. Coupled with the game's sprite-based character models, the "old school" experience becomes entire and complete. Now, in regards to what defines "old school", well, that's simple. For starters, it doesn't have any grand, professionally performed orchestrated tracks, ala Xenosaga. There aren't any surprise Heavy Metal tracks sprung upon us like with FFX, and there is certainly no attempt for an epic, movie-like score for the game. It's straight up "game music".
With Growlanser II, you are brought back to the days of MIDI. Only, of course, they've been revamped with some good synthesizer technology; you can still feel and hear all the traces of its roots. The game's soundtrack can be considered old school, with a twist of present-day genres mixed in. There are a lot of funky beats and techno grooves, tracks that rock out, as well as slower, more "passionate" sounding tracks reminiscent of folk tunes or westerns only edged with synthesized notes. The OST, overall, maintains a "game" feel to it, while nonetheless representing various styles of music and genres, all tightly bound by the shared roots of its composer's, Hiroshi Fujioka, unique take on music composition.
Overall, the soundtrack continues to be an enjoyable experience to this date, particularly those tracks found as samples here on RPGFan. Take the hint and give 'em a try, if you're any kind of music of VG buff, you should find them to your liking and perhaps even to your remembrance. Even with the absence of the game's events to strengthen the meanings behind songs, they still permit room for the imagination to conjure images of just what may be occurring. The OST can be compared to a tiny window, giving you just a peak inside the world of Growlanser, which is sad to say a long ways off, but nonetheless an anticipated title.

Any Given Billy X. Sunday…
R.I.P. To Shakir Stewart. However he came to his end the one thing that we can all agree upon is that he lived and died for the music industry. People were giving Jay-Z credit for bringing Jeezy to Def Jam but it was actually this man who discovered the 'Snowman'. This story is sad, but on another note it makes me wonder… What did Jay-Z do at Def Jam?
Jay-Z stays taking photo ops. Breaking and signing new talent to the music business? Not so much.
We are at the halfway point of the NFL season and those of you that signed up for the Billy X. Sunday Football Pool have 8 more weeks to stake your claims for these free sneakers I will be giving away. It's time to get focused on the teams that play well and kick the Cincinnati's and the Kansas City's to the curb.
What were the surprises this season? The Giants for one. Yes, I know they won the last Super Bowl, but who could've predicted that Eli Manning would become Peyton Manning while Peyton became Archie Manning? Another surprise from New York are the Jets. Brett Farve has some folks believing that the Jets are Super Bowl bound. The Jets used to be called the NY Titans. The current version of the Titans might just be the best team in the league.
Just like the NFL the BXS Football Pool has a lot of people jammed in around each other. Here's the Top 10…
1 Ruffway Bruisers
2 Con-Vicks
3 BigNat 58
4 Da Partystarters
5 Shame On A Nigga (Biily X.)
6 titansfan
6 yesh_yesh_yall
8 Line Em Up Boys
8 Funk Town's Finest
10 Mex
Everybody is still in the running to win it all so I suggest that those who are trailing the leaders get on their grind right now. Trust that I'm gonna try to win it all myself as well. I'm not just giving these kicks away. You're gonna have to earn them.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday declined to review a decision striking down an Oklahoma law that required any woman seeking an abortion to be shown an ultrasound image of the fetus beforehand.
By refusing to hear the case, the high court left intact an Oklahoma Supreme Court ruling that struck down the law on the basis that it violated the U.S. Supreme Court's precedent on abortion restrictions.
It was the second time in two weeks that the high court had declined to review an Oklahoma court ruling that struck down an abortion restriction.
Last week, the court dismissed another case concerning a state law in Oklahoma that cracked down on the use of the abortion-inducing drug RU-486.
The state of Oklahoma asked the Supreme Court to hear the ultrasound case, saying the brief state court opinion issued in December 2012 did not explain the rationale for its ruling.
Nova Health Systems, which provides reproductive health services, including abortions, and physician Larry Burns filed suit in 2010, claiming the law, which they view as unduly invasive, was unconstitutional under Oklahoma state law. A district court in Oklahoma issued an injunction preventing enforcement of the law in March 2012.
The case is Pruitt v. Nova Health Systems, U.S. Supreme Court, No. 12-1170.

Is It Safe To Eat Vitex During Pregnancy?
Vitex (vitex agnus-castus), well-known as chasteberry, is a fertility-promoting herb with numerous proven medicinal qualities. But is it safe to be consumed when you are pregnant? Do the hormonal changes, gastrointestinal issues, and allergic reactions caused by vitex affect pregnant women? Trail down for answers and decide whether vitex is safe to be consumed by expectant moms.
Health Benefits Of Vitex In Pregnancy:
- Flavonoids in vitex have a variety of antioxidant properties which aid in boosting immunity in pregnant women and also protect them from infections.
- The anti-inflammatory action of vitex alleviates joint pain and swelling in pregnant women.
- The iriod glycosides in vitex promote breast milk secretion during lactation.
Side Effects Of Vitex During Pregnancy:
- Minor side effects have been reported with the consumption of vitex such as gastrointestinal effects, such as upset stomach, nausea and diarrhea. Some users have reported acne, dizziness, dry mouth, fatigue, insomnia, headaches and weight gain.
- Irregular menstrual bleeding caused by vitex is considered to be highly risky during pregnancy.
- Chasteberry allergy has proved to cause symptoms like rash or hives, wheezing or trouble breathing, itching, difficulty swallowing and facial swelling.
- It is also capable of causing hormonal imbalances which is highly undesirable during pregnancy.
Hence it is always a better option to have a word with your gynecologist before eating vitex because it is highly important to stay safe and healthy when pregnant.

McLaren considering Vandoorne F1 role (Autosport)
"We are now assessing all scenarios. I think GP2 is one of them, as he still has to learn more about GP2, get more wins and obviously fight for the championship."
Len Terry 1923 – 2014 (Joe Saward)
"He was then convinced to return to Lotus and became Colin Chapman's design engineer, translating his ideas into designs and making them work. In this role he played a key part in the design if the Lotus 25 and 33 models."

"This former works Lotus, Renault, Brabham, Peugeot and Jaguar driver who won Le Mans, the World SportsCar Championship and is now President of the British Racing Drivers' Club named a stock car race with his family at Wimbledon Stadium as his greatest ever."
Rosberg escapes without further punishment. I understand that but wonder if the FIA will have a quiet word about their conduct.

Comment of the day
I was underwhelmed by the first video lap of Russia's new F1 track in Sochi but @ECWDanSelby liked what he saw:
If the whole video was on-board, it'd be a lot easier to tell, but I'd say the circuit actually looks pretty darn fast.
Many of the corners (up until the final sector) look surprisingly quick. A car with decent downforce will be lifting/dabbing the brakes on most of them.
It actually seems like quite a different style circuit for Hermann Tilke (again, with the exception of the final sector, which is just Abu Dhabi). Even in this (comparatively) slow car, the corners come thick and fast and seem never ending, but they're all pretty quick.
Usually Tilke's circuits include the mandatory long straight, and a mix of bends. This seems to be many quick flicks.

On this day 25 years ago it rain at Spa and Ayrton Senna did his stuff, leading home team mate Alain Prost.
But Prost had the feisty Ferrari of Nigel Mansell on his tail. Mansell was taking a particularly creative line at the exit of the La Source hairpin, and pressured Prost until he almost caught Senna, the trio separated by less than two seconds at the flag.

Fashion: The Definitive History of Costume and Style
FASHION, the Definitive History of Costume and Style from the Smithsonian is a long overdue encyclopedia of fashion through the centuries. Like other books by DK, this one capitalizes on lavish color photos and extensive visuals that create an exciting book where the information is easy to understand and remember.
If you are reading this blog, I know you will love this book. It's the holiday gift that you will put at the top of your wish list. It has 480 large format pages packed with wonderful images and photos of not only fashion, but common day apparel as worn during the ages. There is a great sense of continuity, as a time line progresses from page to page, taking the reader along for a ride through the ever changing fashion landscape.
Full page spreads are dedicated to the big names and groups who have influenced the fashion silhouette. Each provides a good overview of the subject, with enough images to make the point clear.
For the reader who wants to teach themselves more about fashion, this is the perfect book. It would even be outstanding for students, and should be considered a player in the textbook field. Having taught costume history for awhile, I can say that this will be a strong new player in the competition for costume history textbook adoption. Another reason for making this a text book is the price. At only $50, it is probably one of the best values out there this season, and a perfect way to spend that gift certificate your aunt will give you this year.
Book: Hardcover | 9.88 x 11.88in | 480 pages | ISBN 9780756698355 | 01 Oct 2012 | Dorling Kindersley (DK publisher)
note: I was not paid for this review, nor did I receive a copy of this book. This is my own opinion, based on having been able to see a copy of it.

Would you take that phrase all the way?AdvertisementWelcome to Morning Would, where we present you with some of the most desirable, controversial cars ever built and ask what you would do to drive one.When most car reviewers say a car is "livable," they mean it's reasonably comfortable and you could, without too much trouble, drive it to work everyday. What they probably don't mean is that you could actually buy one for the purpose of living in it. Would you do that for the Audi R8, though?AdvertisementThe R8 is comfortable and surprisingly calm and quiet when you want it to be. But then again, the seats don't lay flat, there's no internet connection, and from what I understand a bathroom isn't even optional.Your house is actually probably worth more than an R8 (it is, by super car standards, a bargain), so if you sell it to buy one chances are you might be able to afford a good chiropractor. But would you really sell your abode to move into an Audi? To the comments you go.Photo Credit: AudiReply42 repliesLeave a reply

Analysts Talk Apple Tablet, Make Ever More PredictionsCNN Money rounded up a bunch of analysts to basically talk about how great the Apple Tablet is, how it's going to cure cancer and save the publishing industry and keep your girlfriend from leaving you, and it's mostly a rehash of what we've already heard before with a dash of a few inane statements that are almost certainly not true. Check this one: Advertisement The device will come in several different models that offer varieties of Internet connections, such as Wi-Fi or 3G, perhaps through a contract with AT&T.Oh, really? Several different models, with varying internet connections? That sure sounds like Apple—they love confusing lineups that differ by virtue of technical specifications that only tech dorks like you and I understand. Advertisement Otherwise, nothing to see here, just more analyst talk. When something solid on the Apple Tablet leaks out, you'll know—and it ain't to be found in this article, which is why it lands, with a distinct PLOOP sound, into Remainders. [CNN] Mad Catz Brings Cheaper Xbox 360 Wi-Fi Adapter, Still About $50 Too ExpensiveI just got an Xbox 360 this weekend, and somehow did not realize that not only does the console not ship with included Wi-Fi, but an external Wi-Fi adapter costs about as much as my drinking budget for the month—in other words, way too much money. Luckily Microsoft's first-party adapter isn't the only game in town anymore: Mad Catz is entering the ring with an adapter of their own. Great news, right? Except not really, because while the Mad Catz adapter is $20 cheaper than Microsoft's that's still an $80 pricetag on an item that should be included in the first place. This thing should cost $30 at the most, not half the price of the console. It's in Remainders for that very reason: Yeah, it's a price cut, but it's still way too damned expensive. [Engadget] Sony Reader Firmware Upgrade Is Surprisingly DifficultThe Sony Reader PRS-500 may not have the cachet of the Kindles and Nooks of the world, but Sony did just release an upgraded firmware supporting the soon-to-be-standard ePub format. Except I guess the upgrade is seriously difficult, because instead of, you know, pressing a button, like every other firmware upgrade for every other gadget in the history of the world, you have to mail the Reader back to Sony to get this one updated. What? Well, Sony's got an offer in case you find that as silly as I do: A trade-in program that gives you either $50 or $75 off the purchase of one of Sony's brand-new readers! Eesh, Sony. At least take us out to dinner before trying to screw us with our pants on. [Engadget] B&N Giftcards Will Work for Nook Ebook Purchases, SoonRemember when we reported that Barnes & Noble's popular giftcards would, for some unknown reason, not be allowed to be spent on ebook purchases? Well, our reporting did its job, and B&N has decided to change its ways and allow ebook giftcard purchases starting in mid-December. We did it, people! High fives and ass-slaps all around!
