Real life is a funny thing, you know. I think most of us fear reaching the end of our life and looking back regretting the moments we didn't speak up. When we didn't say 'I love you'. When we should have said 'I'm sorry'. So there's a time for silence, and there's a time for waiting your turn. But if you know how you feel, and you so clearly know what you need to say, you'll know it. I don't think you should wait. I think you should speak now.
The above is an excerpt from Taylor Swift's Speak Now tour speech and it's something that stuck to me after all this time. In fact, even her entire letter on her Speak Now album resonates with me. I'm adding her entire opening on her Speak Now album because it's something that I think people should read – regardless if they're a Taylor Swift fan or not. Honestly, it's something I try to remember when I find myself shying away from opportunities or conversations just because I want to project an image of myself that I think I should be, and not who I really am. It helped me stop over-analyzing and over-thinking every single thing and maybe it'll give you something to think about.
'Speak now or forever hold your peace', the words said by preachers at the end of wedding ceremonies all over the world, right before the vows. It's a last chance for protest, a moment that makes everyone's heart race, and a moment I've always been strangely fascinated by. So many fantasize about bursting into a church, saying what they'd kept inside for years like in the movies. In real life, it rarely happens.
Real life is a funny thing, you know. In real life, saying the right thing at the right moment is beyond crucial. So crucial, in fact, that most of us start to hesitate, for fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But lately what I've began to fear more than that is letting the moment pass without saying anything.
I think most of us fear reaching the end of our life, and looking back regretting the moments we didn't speak up. When we didn't say 'I love you'. When we should've said 'I'm sorry'. When we didn't stand up for ourselves or someone who needed help.
These songs are made up of words I didn't say when the moment was right in front of me. These songs are open letters. Each is written with a specific person in mind, telling them what I meant to tell them in person. To the beautiful boy whose heart I broke in December. To my first love who I never thought would be my first heartbreak. To my band. To a mean man I used to be afraid of. To someone who made my world very dark for a while. To a girl who stole something of mine. To someone I forgive for what he said in front of the whole world.
Words can break someone into a million pieces, but they can also put them back together. I hope you use yours for good, because the only words you'll regret more than the ones left unsaid are the ones you use to intentionally hurt someone.
What you say might be too much for some people. Maybe it will come out all wrong and you'll stutter and you'll walk away embarrassed, wincing as you play it all back in your head. But I think the words you stop yourself from saying are the ones that will haunt you the longest.
So say it to them. Or say it to yourself in the mirror. Say it in a letter you'll never send or in a book millions might read someday. I think you deserve to look back on your life without a chorus of resounding voices saying 'I could've, but it's too late now.'
There is a time for silence. There is a time waiting your turn. But if you know how you feel, and you so clearly know what you need to say, you'll know it.
I don't think you should wait. I think you should speak now.
Love, Taylor
I decided to share this on my blog because I've been thinking back to the past years of my life. On the things I have said and I should have not. On the things I haven't said and I should have. On the things I did and should have not. On the things I didn't do and should have.
On the times I should've said 'yes' but instead said 'no' because I don't want to sound like I'm boasting. On the times I should have said 'no' but instead said 'yes' because I don't want to come across as lazy or selfish. On the times I said 'maybe next time' just because I don't want to step even an inch away from my very small comfort zone. On the times I said 'I'm fine' even if I know that I really am not. On the times I didn't say 'I love you' because I think I'm too cool for it and because no one else is doing it. Now I feel so awkward saying it because I'm just used not to. On the times I said 'No, thank you' when asked if I want this or that just because it's been drilled into me even if I most certainly want some. On the times I haven't said 'Sorry' because I prioritized my embarrassment over forgiveness. On the times I haven't spoken up when seeing a wrongdoing because I've been told to keep my head down and avoid trouble. On the times I brush off compliments on my achievements because I don't want to look arrogant. On the times I intentionally hurt someone with my words just because they have hurt me at one time.
What I've learn is that I regret most of the times that I haven't spoken up and decided to keep my head down; or the times I have spoken up with a malice intention. I regret following the social norms that tells you to do this even if you want to do that. I regret turning a blind eye on some instances because the majority do it, too. What I've also learned is that it is not too late to start doing it now.
I've learned to be vocal on my thoughts and opinions now. Though it doesn't come with that small voice telling me to just lay low. I've been in arguments with friends just because of different views and even severed off some ties because I realized that I no longer need toxic people in my life. I give away 'thank you's and 'I'm sorry's so frequently and I haven't felt lighter in my life. I've spoken out against conductors who insisted that my seatmate paid 20 when it was 50 even if it end up with me getting the stink eye. I've told people that they have hurt me instead of just shrugging it off.
I can still count how many times I have said 'I love you' to my family but I'm working on it. And heck, maybe one day I'll be the first to say 'I like you' to a guy when it comes that point.

Leading and managing in turbulent times requires the development of a set of productive habits that will hold us in good standing an provide a solid foundation. Without a foundation of productive habits we become easily distracted and although we may find ourselves busy we fail to make any meaningful progress.
Research by Heike Bruch and Sumantra Ghoshal described in the Harvard Business Review article "Beware the Busy Manager" found that:
"Our findings on managerial behavior should frighten you: Fully 90 percent of managers squander their time in all sort of ineffective activities. In other words, a mere 10 percent of managers spend their time in a committed, purposeful, and reflective manner."
The research also found that focus and energy are the hallmarks of purposeful managers and required for purposeful action. They describe these two elements as follows:
"Think of focus as concentrated attention – the ability to zero in on a goal and see the task through to completion. Focused managers aren't in reactive mode; they choose not to respond immediately to every issue that comes their way or get sidetracked from their goals by distractions like e-mail, meetings, setbacks, and unforeseen demands. Because they have a clear understanding of what they want to accomplish, they carefully weigh their options before selecting a course of action. Think of the second characteristic – energy – as the vigor that is fueled by intense personal commitment. Energy is what pushes managers to go the extra mile when tackling heavy workloads and meeting tight deadlines."
Only 10% of managers are focused and purposefully move their company forward. The other 90% may look busy—but they're probably just spinning their wheels! The question then is what separates the 10% of purposeful manager from the other 90% who waste their time on ineffective activities? The research highlights a number of habits that were consistent across the purposeful managers that kept them on track and productive, these were as follows:
- Purposeful managers tend to be more self-aware than most people.
- Purposeful managers have greater clarity of purpose and intention.
- Purposeful managers pick their goals – and their battles – with far more care than other managers do.
- Purposeful managers effectively manage their energy and protect their thinking time.
- Purposeful managers proactively manage their stress
- Purposeful managers sleep, watch their diet and exercise
- Purposeful managers build a support network
Reflecting on the above list of habits how well are you doing?
- Can you identify where you are on the focus / energy matrix?
- Knowing this what new habits do you need to develop to become more purposeful?

Your lack of closet space certainly hasn't stopped you from shopping. So why let your lack of outdoor space stop you from enjoying sweet pleasures such as fixing dinner with sprigs of basil from your own window box? Annie Novak, urban farmer extraordinaire — she's the co-founder and farmer of Eagle Street Rooftop Farm, a 6,000-square-foot organic vegetable farm in Greenpoint, Brooklyn — shows us how to get started.
Start with the three essentials

1. Sunny spot
"Regardless of your space, it's light that plants need to grow," says Novak. "That's how they make food."
2. Deep pot
"For balcony gardening, the first thing that people need to know is that plants ideally live in about 18-inch-deep soil," says Novak. "So you don't want to grow stuff in a yogurt container. You want to get a proper pot. The shallower the vessel the more evaporation and moisture loss in the soil, and the more stressed out the plants' roots will be."
3. Good dirt
"Buy a potting soil that has a compost blend in it," says Novak. "I do not recommend chemical fertilizers in your potting soil for the very simple reason that it's like having a cup of coffee — it gives you an energy boost for a minute and then after that you crash." Keywords to look for when buying your soil: compost, humus and any product that comes from the ocean. "A lot of bags will say, 'has seaweed in it' or 'enriched with lobster meal.' Almost any of those are going to be really good fertilizers that are added naturally to your soil."
Next, pick your corp
Once we have our sunny spot, good soil and a deep pot, what are some easy vegetables to start off with?
"Tomatoes are not! I find it fascinating that people always plant tomatoes because tomatoes are actually more prone to bad care," Novak says. "If you're a first-time gardener, it's not an easy crop to take care of. I hear so many complaints from people who are like, 'My tomatoes never make tomatoes!' And I say, 'Yeah, well, there are nine things going against you.'
"This is the logical way to think about it. The first thing all plants do is grow a root, and then they grow two leaves, and then after that they start growing more leaves. And once they have enough leaves and sunshine, then they're like, 'OK, we're set with our sugar, let's make flowers, fruits and seeds.' So if you're an apartment gardener and you're growing in a stressed environment, you want to grow plants where you eat the leaves, because plants are going to foliate no matter what you throw at them."
New to gardening? Novak recommends growing:
• Basil
• Mint
• Kale
• Lettuce
• Chives
"I'm a big fan of chives. It's really hard to kill them," she says. "When you cut them all the way back they just come up really thick all over again, and the flowers are delightful."
Start with seeds
"One of the best reasons to grow your own food is so you can grow a purple carrot instead of an orange carrot," says Novak. "I like to grow things from seeds, because when you buy the seed package you're choosing from a much larger range of varieties, like 13 kinds of mint, which is exciting. In the food we eat, we're losing so much diversity — and it sounds cheesy, but the privilege and power of growing your own food is you get to be the person who keeps these amazing heirloom seeds out in the world."
Be responsible
"If you have a terrace or a balcony, make sure that anything you put out there is heavy enough and positioned enough so that it will never fall off," she says. "With a rooftop ... you need to have safe access, you need a parapet that's the right height, and then containers that are big enough that they won't blow off the roof."
Tomato fever
"If you are fixated on tomatoes, start with cherry tomatoes," she says. "There's one variety called sun gold. It's a beautiful tomato, it's one of my favorites for gardening with kids."

Cappadocia ( also Capadocia; Turkish Kapadokya, from Greek: Καππαδοκία / Kappadokía, Armenian: Kapadovkia, Persian: Kāpādōkiyeh) is a historical region in Central Anatolia, largely in Nevşehir Province.
In the time of Herodotus, the Cappadocians were reported as occupying the whole region from Mount Taurus to the vicinity of the Euxine (Black Sea). Cappadocia, in this sense, was bounded in the south by the chain of the Taurus Mountains that separate it from Cilicia, to the east by the upper Euphrates and the Armenian Highland, to the north by Pontus, and to the west by Lycaonia and eastern Galatia.
The name was traditionally used in Christian sources throughout history and is still widely used as an international tourism concept to define a region of exceptional natural wonders, in particular characterized by fairy chimneys and a unique historical and cultural heritage. The term, as used in tourism, roughly corresponds to present-day Nevşehir Province.
The area is a popular tourist destination, as it has many areas with unique geological, historic, and cultural features.
The region is located southwest of the major city Kayseri, which has airline and railroad (railway) service to Ankara and Istanbul.
The most important towns and destinations in Cappadocia are Urgup, Goreme, Ihlara Valley, Selime, Guzelyurt, Uchisar, Avanos, and Zelve. Among the underground cities worth seeing are Derinkuyu, Kaymakli, Gaziemir, and Ozkanak. The best historic mansions and cave houses for tourist stays are in Urgup, Goreme, Guzelyurt, and Uchisar.
Hot-air ballooning is very popular in Cappadocia and is available in Goreme. Trekking is enjoyed in Ihlara Valley, Monestry Valley (Guzelyurt), Urgup, and Goreme.
Sedimentary rocks formed in lakes and streams and ignimbrite deposits that erupted from ancient volcanoes approximately 9 to 3 million years ago, during the late Miocene to Pliocene epochs, underlie the Cappadocia region. The rocks of Cappadocia near Göreme eroded into hundreds of spectacular pillars and minaret-like forms. People of the villages at the heart of the Cappadocia Region carved out houses, churches, and monasteries from the soft rocks of volcanic deposits. Göreme became a monastic center in 300—1200 AD.
The first period of settlement in Göreme goes back to the Roman period. The Yusuf Koç, Ortahane, Durmus Kadir, and Bezirhane churches in Göreme, and houses and churches carved into rocks in the Uzundere, Bağıldere, and Zemi Valleys all illustrate history and can be seen today. The Göreme Open Air Museum is the most visited site of the monastic communities in Cappadocia (see Churches of Göreme, Turkey) and is one of the most famous sites in central Turkey. The complex contains more than 30 carved-from-rock churches and chapels, some having superb frescoes inside, dating from the ninth century to the eleventh century.

Watermelon Day
Oh to have been able to sit in the garden enjoying a balmy summer evening whilst sipping on my watermelon drink.

A VILLA footballer was held by immigration officials as they investigated whether he had an illegal immigrant in his car, it was reported today.
Midfielder Eric Djemba-Djemba, 26, was travelling with two passengers back to the UK by car when he was stopped by British border officials in Calais.
Immigrations officers held Djemba-Djemba for several hours as they checked the passport belonging to a male passenger.
Eventually, the Cameroon international was allowed into the country with his other passenger, thought to be his girlfriend.
But the male passenger was refused entry to Britain because he did not have the correct documentation.
A Border and Immigration Agency spokesman said it did not comment on individual cases.
But he added: "Immigration officers have powers to examine all arriving passengers to establish whether they are a British citizen and, when they are not, whether they are eligible for leave to enter the UK.
"Our priority is to ensure our borders are secure and officers will make all the relevant checks necessary to do this."

Many ways to honor the mothers in our lives.
Last week, members of the Safer Chemicals Healthy Families coalition celebrated the more activist origins of Mothers Day by telling members of Congress that the best gift for moms (and the people who love them) would be to protect our families from toxic chemicals.
The perfect gift for mothers
Yesterday was Mother's Day. All across the US, mothers were treated to breakfasts, gifts, outings, and a potpourri of goodies- I hope so! I'm sure Sunday was a real treat.

5 Years
Do you remember when you were only 5 years old? Turning 5 is such a milestone in our lives because that's when you get to start school.
By the time you reach Year 8, you will realise that everyone's journey through school is different. Whatever happens, school is a time to enjoy being young, to learn, to be creative, and to create special memories.
We hope that your experience at school inspires you to be the best person that you'll ever be.
Enjoy our movie created by the Year 7 & 8 Extension group. A huge big thank you to Matua Lewin (Teacher) who is the person singing on our soundtrack.
(song inspired by 'Seven Years' by Lukas Graham)
The Legend of the Lost Tribe
Did you know that Kupe was probably the first explorer to reach NZ? Early Polynesian explorers used traditional navigation methods to guide them on their voyage. But what would make someone leave their island and travel thousands of miles across the ocean?
This movie was created by our Year 5 & 6 Extension students. First they wrote stories about Maori and Pacific warriors. Then they created a graphic of their own Maori or Pacific warrior on Hyperstudio. Each student can be seen fighting with their warrior in the movie. Check it out!
(Special thanks goes to Mr Jacobsen for his fantastic narrating skills!)

All Tune and Lube (ATL) is a small, Nogales, AZ-based full service auto care center. All Tune and Lube is founded on the idea that the customers' satisfaction is indispensable to the financial well-being of the organization. The management and staff will be working hard to ensure that all the customers' expectations are exceeded.
However, the auto repair industry by its very nature is a very competitive service-oriented business. All Tune and Lube will be distinguished by offering a stress-free repair service and a fully stocked parts warehouse to save customers' valuable time.
ATL's keys to success will include:
- Expedient and convenient auto repair services.
- Growing and maintaining a loyal customer base.
- An extensive auto parts inventory.
- Rapid order and installation of major auto parts.
- Work with our customers on a personal level.
Currently, All Tune and Lube management squanders approximately 30% to 75% of their valuable time handling various and assorted administrative duties associated with operating an auto repair center, including keeping and updating auto parts inventory and prices in a paper logbook.
Time is lost completing auto repairs waiting for parts that should be in stock. All Tune and Lube is not meeting its goal of customer service and satisfaction; this has caused lost business since customers are unwilling to wait. This is a service-oriented business and depends on pleasing the customer always; All Tune and Lube must continually compete against other local shops and the big car dealerships.
Certainly, All Tune and Lube's decision to implement a software solution to make it competitive and improve its service is weighed against some of the following questions. In looking for software solutions, questions like the following will need to be asked. What do we need? How much product did we...

Listen to this article
Is the UK bad at strategy? The London School of Economics (LSE) thinks so and is building on its reputation as a centre for socio-political and business thinking to launch a programme called Strategy in the Age of Global Risk to help address the issue.
The programme is intended for those dealing with international and military affairs, global business and finance. The programme addresses the threats and risks that could arise in the future and techniques for assessing and addressing them
As well as LSE professors, including LSE director Howard Davies and business school dean Saul Estrin, the programme will be taught by high-powered former diplomats and government advisors. These include Tony Blair's former chief of staff Jonathan Powell, Sir David Manning, formerly Britain's ambassador to the US, Nato and Israel; and Sir Richard Mottram, former permanent secretary at the Ministry of Defence and Chairman of the Joint Intelligence Committee.
Prof Davies says the course is one of a kind because "it looks firmly to the future, is grounded in a deep understanding of political, economic and military issues, and based on shrewd insights into how the art of thinking strategically can be revitalised."
The course will begin in September 2011 and includes four intensive one-week study sessions, 20 evening seminars, two policy weekend discussions and institutional visits spread across the academic year. The programme relies on coaching and other intensive teaching techniques rather that more conventional teaching methods. But such an experience does not come cheap: the cost of the course is £22,912.

Rising production cost and declining numbers of viewers are the primary reasons that the USA Network cancelled the television drama "Covert Affairs" after its fifth season. The move was surprising to some entertainment industry reporters because it was the type of program that USA had been seen as trending toward.
As with many aging shows, the cost of talent increased with its success. The spy show had also begun using more expensive and larger sets and filming locations, leaving USA to absorb the cost. While the show continued to do fairly well in overall viewer numbers, it had declined significantly in the highly coveted 18-to-49-year-old demographic.

There's no package in the Ubuntu repositories that can help you with this. There is a program, though, called Convert-Lit, but you'll have to go download and build it yourself. Convert Lit will convert a LIT file into HTML as well as OEBPF format.
The best instructions for building C-Lit can be found here. I'm reproducing a simplified set of instructions based on that document.
- First, install the
build-essentialpackage, if you haven't already done so. I've already covered it in a previous entry.
- Download the Convert Lit source.
- Download
libtomcrypt.This is a library decrypting the encrypted files.
- Unpack and build the files
gzip -cd < open_clit18src.tar.gz | tar xf -
bzip2 -cd < ltm-0.30.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
cd libtommath-0.30
cd ../lib
cd ../cl?t18
- The final optional step is to install the program into your system:
sudo install clit /usr/local/bin
You can choose not to install the program, though, and just invoke it from its directory.
As I said, Convert Lit will convert a LIT file into HTML as well as OEBPF format. To do this for a file called
book.lit, you would run the command:
The trailing / is necessary to create the directory, if it doesn't exist already. After executing, the HTML files and e-book files will be found in the
book directory.

They look a bit out of shape, a bit wrong, just like the world around you when you get tipsy! These glasses from Lori & Livia are reminders of the merry atmosphere in over-crowded bars, standing like happy cocktail lovers defying the laws of gravity. The glasses were put in a kiln at a very high temperature until reaching their melting point resulting in a slow deformation of the pieces while preserving their original identity.

Cool Van
It was -30 this morning, and I had not started it for a couple days, so it complained a little but then it revved right up.
I love my van.
5 comments:
I thought we had left the snow behind, but we're in a huge snow storm, and it's totally chaotic in Van. I totally lost my bus to work this morning. The roads were closed, and I knew the bus was operating, I just didn't know which road to find it on.
We also lost the power in our appartment so Tym had to leave and study elsewhere because it's too cold at home, and all the classes were cancelled. The entire campus is shut down. Hopefully power will back tonight, but we're not hopeful, as just a few weeks ago people were without power for a week. It's really quite strange: I'm used to the weather, but the city is not. Quite an Adventure!!

MaturesHD Review
Reviewed: 2010-07-09
Quick site rank and complete review of MaturesHD | Categories: European, Mature
User Rating For MaturesHD
Price & Payment Options
Tour Promises
Matures-HD.com promises high-def movies, always hot new content, unlimited downloads and lots of bonuses.
My Opinion About MaturesHD
7 sites
There are a lot of reasons to enjoy high-definition, but there is a specific benefit to watching old girls ferociously gobbling dick on Matures HD. Much more than lower quality, HD movies truly bring out the age of models and since all the women on this site are mature this means you can linger and pleasure over crow's feet and other fine lines and skin textures that set older women apart from the rest.
MaturesHD isn't an original site, per se. Some of the content found inside the members' area may be exclusive, but not original produced for this site. This aside, you do get a wicked selection of old gals with a feverish appetite for cock.
When you first login, you might be a little concerned. MaturesHD is one of several sites in the greater network, all of which you get access to. However, the first page you land on delivers quite a few teens and other babes. There is a page-top menu and you'll need to click the browse sites link to access the matures. Once on the Matures-HD page, you're not likely to enjoy the layout of navigation any better. It's all okay, but it could use some improvement. However, you won't have any issues finding the bonus content, which also include thousands of DVD streams in multiple categories including matures.
The women cross a small range of ages. This has its advantages and disadvantages depending on what age you like your old broads. There is a really hot 40-year-old blonde who takes on two cocks and I must admit that this is the age I like my mature women. There appears to be at least one model in her thirties, but most of the old gals look like they're over 45 years with some edging into their fifties. It's hard to judge, but some of the women look like old strippers, some like old skanks and some just look like really kinky mothers. There are plenty of big boobs around here and while there are some slim ladies, there are also a good number of larger women and while a few take on two guys at once, most simply enjoy focussing all their attention on one cock.
The photos do not replicate or parallel the movie action, which gives the site an edge of variety. There are 29 videos at the moment and you get 25 sets of excellent 2000x1333 photos that are downloadable in Zips. When viewing the photos online, they are scaled to a smaller size which is great for the slideshow or simply for browsing on your computer. While many sets offer a good dose of hardcore, it turns out that a good number of the women have a fetish bend. It's kind of kinky seeing some of the big old boards in super-tight PVC and lingerie.
Videos can be streamed in a Flash player and there are iPod/PSP, low and HD WMV downloads. The 4000kbps, 1280x720 videos are fabulous. The download speeds are reasonable, but if you're feeling impatient you can always watch the stream which doesn't take long at all to buffer and play. Understanding foreign language was a problem in the flicks with reality style lead-ins, but there are films more gonzo in nature and these ones bypass the niceties and get right down into the hardcore. Film style is a bit of a blend and the descriptions don't indicate much about the action contained within a film. In other words, the style of any particular flick with be a surprise.
Final Verdict
If you like a large portion of older Europeans whose only workout routine consists of fucking and whose idea of a beauty treatment is a huge load of creamy cum, then you're in luck with Matures HD. The site isn't large and the updates can vary between two to four in a month, but the video quality is excellent and these old broads can seriously do a number on any man's cock.

The 5 Foot Two Man Cross Cut Saw
The Two Man Cross Cut Saws have proved to be a much sought after product. These large saws are used mostly in forestry work and the crosscutting of large logs. But in recent years, these have been bought by people aiming to cut their own fire wood etc. They are a great alternative to chain saws in both a safety and environmental way and can be used by anyone! Get the family to help!
The teeth on the Two Man Cross Cut Saws work in a way that the teeth cut on the pull stroke on each side of the tooth and so actually cut in each pulling direction. The Two Man Cross Cut Saws comes complete with two wooden handles.
These saws have also been featured in the Discovery Channel's "How It's Made" programme
Maintenance: A large file is used for sharpening these items. Saw setters are too small for saws with teeth of this size.
Sizing advice: we recommend a saw length that is double the size of wood you are wanting to cut. This is to ensure that you can get enough stroke in your cutting.
Key Features:
* Pair of Beech Handles and fittings to attach handles to blade
* Peg Tooth formation allows cutting on both push and pull stroke through the wood
* Can be Re-sharpened using a Large File
Good to have on hand
Keep the water flowing
Keep your Metal from rusting
I'm sure we have the one you looking for

ALTOONA — Residents at Lakeview Terrace Christian Retirement Center trusted Peter Germeroth. They believed Germeroth, the center's former owner, when he told them last summer that the center was having financial problems and he needed their help.
What they probably did not realize was the size of the debt that the center had incurred during the past decade.

After the next generation of the Apple iPhone was discovered in in the latest iPhone SDK, the guys over at Engadget have found out some more details of the next iPhone, which could point to it having the ability to record and playback HD video in 720P.
Details have emerged that the new model spotted will allow for videos as wide as 1280 pixels and a total of 921,000 pixel count which could equate to a resolution of 1280 x 720, which is the same as HD video in 720p.
It is not clear whether the next generation iPhone will be able to record and playback HD video or juts play them back, if it did both a wonder what Apple would call the next generation iPhone, could they possibly call it the iPhone HD?
I guess we will just have to wait until we get some official word from Apple, lets hope the next generation iPhone does have HD video playback at least.

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - TNT Express TNTE.AS, whose $7 billion takeover by United Parcel Service (UPS.N) was blocked last month, reported a fourth-quarter loss on Monday and said it was looking to sell troubled businesses in Brazil and China.
The collapse of the UPS deal leaves the Dutch express delivery firm having to confront a weak European market on its own.
It reported a net loss for the final quarter of 2012 of 148 million euros ($197.59 million), down from a loss of 173 million euros a year ago on flat revenue of 1.86 billion euros, while analysts had on average forecast a net profit of 32.2 million euros on revenue of 1.886 billion euros.
The shares were down 1 percent after the results at 5.49 euros.
"There are many positive actions we can take to improve profitability and we look forward to providing a full update on 25 March," Bernard Bot, interim chief executive, said in a statement.
He also said the company was looking to make disposals abroad.
"Divestment opportunities for our domestic activities in Brazil and China are being secured," he said, adding that the outcome for China would be known soon.
TNT Express faces an uncertain future. It has cut capacity in Europe because of weak demand, was hit by restructuring problems in Brazil, and is seen as a minor player in China. Its chief executive quit soon after UPS made its offer in March 2012.
TNT Express was partially split from Dutch postal operator PostNL (PTNL.AS) in May 2011 in an attempt to profit from express operations as traditional mail business declines.
But its weak performance quickly prompted activist shareholders to call for a management shake-up or an outright sale, pushing TNT Express into the arms of UPS only to have EU competition regulators block the marriage.
The Dutch firm, which received a 200 million euro break-up fee from UPS this month, said on Monday it took 120 million euros in one-off charges and impairments, mainly on its domestic China and India businesses, and on the value of its freight aircraft. ($1=0.7490 euros)

While on that topic, I'd like to take a moment to apologise to the people of the forums for my crime.
Also.. I'm Riley. ^^`
