Nokia 808 PureView impressions, camera showdown with the iPhone 4S and HTC One S

Nokia invited us to take a tour of the Carl Zeiss HQ in Germany, all in the name of getting some time to shoot with the pair's latest project, the 808 PureView. Sure, you've heard the specs: a 41-megapixel sensor, f/2.4 Carl Zeiss lens and a focal length of 8.02mm. That hulking sensor dominates the body, but how do those photographic results turn out? We spent a few hours shooting with Symbian's (possibly) last hurrah and found that -- unsurprisingly -- this looks to be the new benchmark for mobile imaging. The top-heavy body fits in with the focus on mobile photography epitomized in this phone and there's a tangible quality to the photos even on the 808 PureView's 640 x 360 display, alongside a noticeable decrease in noise. Check out our gallery and grab more impressions and comparison images with the iPhone 4S and One S after the break.

Family Game Night Fun with Kerflip Word Game ? 7 on a Shoestring

Family Game Night Fun

We enjoy playing board games as a family whenever we can find the time to do so. Our favorites are a handful of classics that were around when I was a kid. Personally, I prefer trivia or word games since they appeal to my logical brain. My kids are split as to how they pick their favorites, but it is really about making family game night fun. We were recently introduced to a new word game that we could add to our collection. Kerflip! is ?The Fast-Thinking, Flip-Scoring, Free-For-All Word Game.? It is so much fun. My son, middle daughter, and I are all the wordsmiths in the house so my hubby and oldest daughter have to think quickly to beat us. This game is exactly the type of game I enjoy. Anything that stimulates my brain and gets me thinking quick on my feet has got to be good.

Fast Paced Word Game

The basic concept behind Kerflip! is to make words faster than your opponents. It is a fast paced word game that requires your attention and thinking. After you play it the first time you quickly understand how it is to be played and how to score. The race is then on to find your words before your opponent comes up with one so you can snag the higher score. Even the scoring system is unique in how it is done considering point values decrease as tiles are used and flipped over. And do not be fooled thinking that age matters in this game. Meaning, just because I am older that in no way means my 8 year old could not throw words out quicker than I could see them. She really enjoyed this game! Watch this video from the creator to?understand?exactly?how?to play:

Tile Collection Design

One of my favorite features of the game, other than playing it, is the unique tile?collection?design. As you play, used tiles are easily discarded into a designated slot under the game board. At the end of the game, once all tiles have been played, you simply lift up the playing surface, tilt the box so that the tiles slide into the accompanying box, and then easily pour all the tiles back into the bag for safe keeping. Awesome! I know one of our biggest problems with games is losing pieces. This makes clean up and storage simple and quick.

Sponsor Spotlight: Kerflip!

Kerflip!?is an exciting, shoot-from-the-hip style word game that rewards you for making words faster than your opponents can. A unique flip-scoring system allows tiles to have variable point values.??Easy to learn and completely original, you might wonder how it?s possible to pack so much fliptastic goodness into one small box! Kerflip! is giving one of you a chance to win your own game for family game night! Just watch for the Giveaway-A-Day tomorrow and enter to win! You can get a head start on entering by ?liking? Kerflip! on Facebook.

Powers, Iran discuss detail of possible nuclear deal

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - World powers and Iran held unusually detailed talks on Wednesday about how it could show its nuclear work is not a disguised quest for atom bombs, in a Baghdad meeting aimed at halting a slide toward a new Middle East war.

After a 15-month diplomatic freeze which saw tensions soar, and exploratory talks in Istanbul last month, the six powers were testing Iran's readiness to curb its disputed uranium enrichment program, under pressure of harsher sanctions.

The stakes could hardly be higher: global oil markets are jittery over sanctions imposed on Iran's vital crude exports and the possibility of Israeli strikes against its defiant arch-enemy, which has threatened reprisals if it comes under attack.

Iran warned again that it would not give in to pressure, but both sides were upbeat about the scope for an outline deal as the meeting between Iran and the United States, Russia, China, Germany, France and Britain began in the Iraqi capital.

"We had a detailed exchange this morning. (We) presented our package, the atmosphere was businesslike and meetings will continue this afternoon," a Western diplomat close to the negotiations told Reuters.

The powers' overall goal is an Iranian agreement to measures that would allay suspicions it is using its nuclear energy program as a cover for designing atomic bombs. Iran's priority will be to negotiate relief from sanctions damaging its economy.

The pivotal proposal by the six, led by European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, was for Iran to halt its enrichment of uranium to the higher fissile concentration of 20 percent, her spokesman Michael Mann said after talks began.

That is the Iranian nuclear advance most worrying to the West since it largely overcomes technical obstacles to reaching 90-percent, or bomb-grade, enrichment. Iran says it is enhancing the fissile purity of uranium only for medical research.

"We have a new offer on the table which addresses our main concerns about the Iranian nuclear program. The 20-percent enrichment question," Mann told reporters. "We hope the Iranians respond positively and we can make progress today."

In a separate interview with Iran's state-run English-language Press TV, Mann said no final deal was expected in Baghdad because progress was likely to be only gradual.

But he said toughened sanctions, especially an EU ban on Iranian oil exports due to take full effect on July 1, had helped to draw Iran finally into serious negotiations.

"We have put forward some things from our side to give back to the Iranians," Mann said, welcoming the approach of chief Iranian negotiator Saeed Jalili. "The mood music is certainly good between Jalili and Mrs Ashton and hopefully we can get a positive result."

Iran has hinted at flexibility on higher-grade enrichment although analysts caution that it would be unlikely to compromise much while sanctions remain in place.

In previous meetings the two sides could not even agree an agenda, with each largely repeating known positions and Tehran refusing any dialogue on changes to its nuclear path.

Ashton aides did not rule out talks extending into Thursday.

IRAN HOPES FOR "GOOD NEWS" SOON

Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi, speaking to reporters in Tehran, said: "The ideas fielded to us speak of the fact that the other side would like to make Baghdad a success. We hope that in a day or two we can bring good news."

Salehi also warned that Iran would not bow to pressure. "Their policies of pressure and intimidation are futile. They have to adopt policies to show goodwill to solve this issue."

Russia said the Islamic Republic appeared ready for serious discussion of substantive steps to resolve the impasse in return for the phased removal of sanctions.

Speaking of preparatory discussions before Baghdad, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in Moscow: "We got the clear impression ... that the Iranian side is ready to seek agreement on concrete actions." These would be taken step by step.

Another proposed step will be an updated version of an idea first floated in 2009 that envisaged Iran shipping out the bulk of its stockpile of low-grade uranium - which is potential nuclear weapons fuel - in return for higher-enriched fuel for the medical research reactor in Tehran, a diplomat said.

It was unclear whether that idea would gain traction after Iran's announcement on Tuesday that it had supplied its first batch of domestically made fuel to that reactor - a message likely meant to boost its leverage in negotiations.

The Islamic Republic launched higher-grade enrichment two years ago and has since transferred the operation to a bunkered, underground plant at Fordow that, to Israeli alarm, would be largely impervious to attack from the air.

"The key issue is the 20-percent enrichment potential. This has to be addressed in order to have a productive outcome," said one Western diplomat. "The marching orders for Baghdad are to have concrete ideas on the table, maybe not necessarily agree on all details of these ideas, but to have a clear commitment."

Iran, a major oil exporter, says it is enriching uranium for electricity. That requires fuel refined to 5 percent, although it will be many years before power stations are built. It also wants radioactive isotopes for cancer treatment.

Tehran has repeatedly ruled out suspending enrichment as called for by several U.N. Security Council resolutions.

DEAL ON EXPANDED U.N. INSPECTIONS "CLOSE"

In a possible sign of a new Iranian willingness to address concerns about its atomic ambitions, the U.N. nuclear supervisor said on Tuesday he expected to sign a deal soon to unblock an investigation into suspected work on atom bombs.

But Western officials note past failures to carry out deals on more intrusive inspections between the International Atomic Energy Agency and Iran, and their patience is running out.

Some Iranian officials kept up a hardline before the talks.

"The wall of distrust between Iran and the West is high and our public opinion has serious doubts about their compliance with their obligations. The negotiations ... are a good litmus test to prove the West's goodwill," Press TV quoted Kazem Jalili, spokesman for parliament's national security and foreign policy committee, as saying on Wednesday.

Iran suggested it would try to parlay its reported rapprochement with the IAEA into a deal in Baghdad to relax sanctions inflicting increasing damage on its economy, including a European Union oil embargo due to take effect in July.

But Western officials ruled out such a weighty concession so soon, even though their call for a "step-by-step" negotiating process is widely seen as a tacit admission that sanctions will have to be eased at some point.

"Sanctions are only going to be lifted if we have significant and genuine progress," one diplomat said.

Israel, widely assumed to have the Middle East's only atomic arsenal, has loudly expressed its skepticism about the chances for diplomacy to rein in its major adversary.

Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Israel was concerned that the world powers would not press hard enough to put a full stop its nuclear program and that Israel would keep all options open - an allusion to military action - to achieve that goal.

The main thing to know here is that bulky muscle builders had been able to get their physique that they have as a result of they?re either injecting steroids or because of their testosterone levels which is a very important consider growing that brawny muscles. And since girls do not possess high stage of testosterone then it is extremely unlikely for them to develop a butch physique simply by way of weight training.

The trick to making a habit of cardio exercise is to search out one thing that you have access to, but in addition one thing you are feeling comfy with personally. For example, some girls favor to train outside-take a hike, jog, go for a motorbike journey, etc. On the other hand, some girls would moderately simply get a fitness center membership and use a treadmill, bike, elliptical, etc. All of it relies upon what matches your life-style and budget.

Foreign Franchise The More Glancing Indonesia | World Business ...

Foreign franchise the more glancing Indonesia. As a franchise consultant, what sight I saw the rise of the phenomenon of foreign franchises coming into Indonesia? But may need scrutiny, if indeed it is rampant foreign franchise coming into Indonesia? or is it actually in Indonesia is still too ?less? because it still lacks many of the alien franchise in Indonesia? For example, in Indonesia there is still no Jack in the Box, no Hardee?s, no Long john silver, yet there is no Subway, Tesco, yet no Disneyland, Universal Studios and other country neighbor has long been in operation.

It turns out that scrutiny, as the State of these foreign franchises in Indonesia, still less than a foreign franchise in other countries. But our local franchise is already pretty much developed (though not yet all have a letter of registration marks STPW ? franchise).

What is the impact of foreign franchise for us in Indonesia (good for entrepreneurs and for the development of its economy)? As a franchise consultant is engaged for more than 15 years in the field of franchising/?s franchising, I still believe that?s franchising business system is the most effective and positive impact for businesses and the economy. Though there is a nonsensitive on each option, but still in the things that are reasonable and can be accountable (justified).

Foreign Franchise in Indonesia on its implementation is to use the joint appointment of a Master Franchisee or Franchisee Development Area, meaning there is a party which has close cooperation with business owners in a foreign country (the Franchisor ?s) to open, have, and operates the business with the Franchisor?s brand and business system in Indonesia. So who is the owner of the franchise company in Indonesia who became a foreign Master Franchisee or Franchisee Development Area? Yes of course The Indonesia as well. So it is not correct if there are words that ?we would have conquered foreign franchise ??. Because the alien franchise owners in Indonesia is Indonesia as well.

It certainly is no consequence that, as franchisees (franchise receiver) is obliged to pay royalty fee to the franchisor ?s. But it is a reasonable thing in cooperation of the franchise.

Why Renting Your Properties is a Smart ... - Decor Garden Home

May 18th, 2012 at 8:20 pm

People move in one place to another, in one home to another. From time to time, you will find people who are searching for a new destination in and reside in. And that?s the reason why renting your property is a smart decision.
Many people consider having their new place. More even aspire to move in to some place much better than their current place. Not everyone is decided already to reside in one spot for forever. Wanting and searching for new things and better things is a nature want for humans. But not everyone is able to afford to buy a new home. That?s why investment properties in tangible estate will always be a very profitable business!

Kinds of home that may be rented out:
? Apartments,
? condominiums,
? condotels,
? single family homes,
? multi-family homes, and
? townhouses

Now, let?s get to the explanations why renting your properties rather than living on it is a smart decision:

1. More income. For those who have a good investment property and also you chose to have it to rent, you will have a monthly income, that income is going to be used for make payment on mortgage payments along with other maintenance obligations, but once you?ve paid all of them, you?ll start receiving monthly income and that?s your ?profit? aside from the property!

2. Keep your property. You have extra monthly income by renting it out, simultaneously, you are waiting for the home value to go up and you will wish to let it go when the deal you are waiting for comes.

3. Tax breaks offset rent or any other income. Deducting your mortgage interest payments, insurance, property taxes, and maintenance and the collection of rent are included in here.

4. New home. Yes, you heard me right. By renting your property, you can have a new property. You don?t have to sell your house just to be able to get a replacement. Banks are okay to lend you sufficient money to purchase a new home using your existing equity. And when the other figures stack-up, banks don?t care if you sell or otherwise, so long as their risks are minimised by you having enough equity. If you?re able to keep your income stable and be able to pay mortgages, you are able to wind up using a new and better home, while having the ability to keep your rent out property!

News and Society -Crime News Blog: We Think, Therefore We ...

People think, therefore they commit actions of choice. Criminals think, therefore they commit crimes. This is not a very complicated notion, or is it a new concept. What becomes complicated are the processes and actions that follow, coupled with academic attempts to explain the subsequent acts. In very broad general terms, criminal behavior can be formatted and analyzed from the assessment of crime scene, but not to a point of perfection. Assessment, profiling or whatever you want to call it, is no more and no less just another tool for law enforcement. Just like lifting fingerprints, interviewing witnesses, or gathering other physical evidence, criminal behavior assessment is basically guesswork. Human behavior is not subject to strict codification or precise parameters by which exact measures can be deduced. Probabilities can be asserted along a continuum, whereby we can understand the thinking processes of criminals to the junction of potential prediction, but not absolute prediction. This is predicated, of course, on the assumption that certain elements exist within the known environment by which such predictions can be based. It is frequently suggested that criminals form pre-crime thoughts in an effort to individually and collectively carry out their criminal behavior intentions. Interdicting at this point in time would be unique and advantageous from a law enforcement perspective.

Motivations or personal agendas so to speak, set the stage for intentional selection for results that are either good or evil. Evil is the darkness of the human mind that fosters all manner of opposition to the positive and productive aspects of life. It is life negation in contrast to life affirmation. Conscious or subconscious thoughts take relevance and manifest themselves into real levels of expression with a significant probability of repetition. Thinking processes are the foundation of potential criminal behavior. People can be inspired by their thoughts for doing both good and evil. The pursuit of certain thoughts is grounds for criminal activity. People are a dichotomous expression of being on the one hand selfish, self-indulgent and self-centered in nature, yet also law-abiding, decent and considerate on the other. From an investigative standpoint, one can never underestimate the depravity of human beings. Human nature is not to be trusted to an absolute sense in all situations, under all varieties of conditions. Yet, everyone is still ultimately accountable and responsible for his or her actions, regardless of station or position in a given socio-economic context. Of course, some would use their status to place themselves above the lawful necessity of accountability and responsibility. And, as a result of one thinking that he or she can make choices contrary to accepted legal policy or social acceptance, criminal behavior becomes probable.

Criminal actions are probable due to personal decision-making. Such actions devolve toward personal choices associated with power and control issues. Criminals basically commit crimes because that is what they want to do. A person's code of morality is influenced by philosophical fallacies of belief. This affects the thinking process. People basically do stupid things. The depravity of behavior is most likely unfathomable to most people. Criminals think before they act. The thoughts are there long before the event takes place. Thinking becomes the basis to rationalize the behavior and ultimately blame the behavior on someone or something else. So, crime analysis is probably more descriptive of the actions.

The formulation of criminal plans (thinking processes) begins with the thought of doing the acts upon which one desires. Plans to do harm are not sudden and impulsive. They occur over a distinct period of time in the brain, or "mind", of the thinker. And, there is a high probability that since we are biologically oriented individual, our sexual drives and desires may influence our decision-making (choice we make) in terms of the crimes we commit and additions we create.

The thought processes emerge in some behavioral aspect, such as physically, verbally, and nonverbally, as well as symbolic behavior. Outward behavior is indicative of the inner thoughts of the person. Interpersonal communication is one of the keys to dealing with aspects of criminal behavior. People in general use various forms of communication to suggest their feelings, value system, lifestyle, attitude and thoughts. From tattoos to bumper stickers, to physical gestures and slogans, people, and in particular criminals, reveal indications of one sort or another as to their inclinations. Physical being is an expression of presence and that presence translates into wants and presumed needs. Whether by word, symbol or deed, the inner thoughts surface and become the outer actions of mind over matter so to speak. And, sometimes these outer actions become anti-social in nature. There is a deliberate desire to do the thing contemplated, whether the thoughts are short-term or long-term in transformation. Thinking is doing, acting, believing and experiencing. Various acts of criminal behavior range from the simple to the complex, depending on the linkage between thought and action, as well as the sophistication of the criminal. For instance, the amount of physical expression required for a particular act of deviance is related to the ability, skill and desire of the criminal. Opportunity is a given factor. From thought to action, the criminal is always looking for opportunistic forms of expression. Desire, opportunity and ability mix together in order that the desired action is executed. The "evil", as a concept of human behavior, concerns the malevolent things that people do to others. It reflects the inner composition of the human being. The connectivity evolves around the compendium of crime analysis and criminal behavior assessment.

It is associated with the ideation of preemptive actions toward the outer world, while one struggles with the inner world. Whether making bombs and blowing up buildings, robbing banks and raping people, the thinking facilitates the transformation into the criminal behavior. Evil opposes life and seeks to kill or otherwise destroy life. Acting out the actions is indicative of the internal "warfare" within the imperfect structure of human nature. As such, "evil" is human nature, and reflects the various personifications and proclivities down through history. No matter what the reason or suggested excuse, aberrant behavior begins with the individuals and then extends outward into the community of people. Whether minor or major, everyone commits some act of deviance against another. Such acts may be symbolic, verbally expressive or physical in actuality. The behavior may be overt or covert depending on the individual tendencies and preferences. Evil is characteristic of the state of human beings and the nature of their ongoing quest to fulfill selfish endeavors. This means others must suffer the consequences of what criminals do. Criminal activities extend from the human passion for adverse self-indulgent needs.

The transmutation of the thought processes are continually structured around personal intentions, some evil and some good. Compulsion to action generally reflects aspects of the personality, which typically favor the inclination to leave a "signature" upon one's behavior. As such, the various patterns of behavior are built upon a foundation of prior thought and consideration. Regardless of the socio-economic circumstances, criminals postulate their criminal intentions through their own framework of ideation. Committing acts of evil are from within the person and subsequently carried out in acts of violence, theft, cheating, and a host of deceptive behaviors.

Analysis and assessment are essential in developing crime prevention and interdiction efforts to prevent or identifying criminal actions. All human beings are potentially evil (i.e. prone to criminal behavior) and have the capacity for the commission of hideous acts of aberrant behavior. The only difference between the so called "law abiding citizen" and the criminal, is the "law abiding citizen" controls their criminal inclination. When we so often speak of "what a nice person he was", or "she wouldn't hurt anyone", how do we really know? What scale of perception do we use to assess the inner workings of person's mind, which we can see or measure by normal means. How do we really know who a person is by looking from the outside?

Since there are at least two versions of every person's personality and behavior extensions, one private and one public, what do we really know about the people? For that matter, it is even more complex to suggest we know something about people we don't know. Analysis, study and assessment are essential in laying the foundation for more definitive answers. Crime prevention through proactive intervention strategies is the main objective of this focus. By attempting to identify the basic ingredients in criminal activity and behavior, the mission is to interdict where possible, as well as identify and apprehend the criminal to every extent feasible. Law enforcement personnel want to stop the criminal before he or she commits the crime. If that fails, then the law enforcement practitioners want to solve the case in the most expedient manner possible.

Listening to convicted criminals serving time in facilities may not be the most efficient way to go about developing proactive strategies for crime prevention purposes. In most cases, criminals will tell you whatever you want to hear in order to satisfy their self-serving needs. For this reason, criminal behavior studies may be significantly flawed due to the deception and manipulation that most criminals act out on a regular basis. And, given the gullible and often na?ve nature of many researchers, the problem of data reliability is even more seriously affected. One must ponder the overall validity of information obtained from people who spend their lives deceiving others, making up their own rules and scapegoating at every opportunity. Self-serving, clever and deceptive, criminals will seek to justify every aspect of their behavior. Their actions will be rationalized to the extent necessary to shift focus from them to someone else. Criminals are very good at transferring blame from themselves to something or someone else. They typically will assert that they are the victims and the real victim is actually the cause of the criminal's suffering. Their thinking processes should be of more interest than their environment, personal history or socio-economic surroundings.
