A VERY SHOCKING STORY... NAKAKAKILABOT TALAGA... HINDI TO CHAIN MESSAGE O KAHIT ANONG CHORVA...

This is a story from University of the Philippines (Diliman) about a young college girl who passed away last month. Her name was Tiffany. She was hit by a dump truck. She had a boyfriend named Joel . Both of them were true lovers. They always hung on the phone.. You could never see her without her cell phone.

In fact she also changed her network coverage from Smart to Globe, so both of them can be on the same network, and save on the cost and get good network coverage. She spends half of the day talking/texting with Joel. Tiffany's family knew about their relationship. Joel was very close with Tiffany's family. (Just imagine their love). Before she passed away she always told her friends "If I pass Away please bury me with my hand phone" she also said the same thing to her parents.

After her death, people couldn't carry her coffin, I was there. A lot of them tried to do so but still couldn't, everybody including me, had tried to carry the coffin, the result is still the same. Eventually, they called a Feng Shui Master. He took a stick and started speaking to himself slowly.
After a few minutes, he said "THIS GIRL MISSES SOMETHING HERE". Then her friends told the Master about her intentions to bury her with her phone. He then opened the coffin and placed her phone and SIM card inside the casket. After that they tried to carry the coffin. It could be moved and they carried it into the van easily. All of us were shocked.

Tiffany's parents did not inform Joel that Tiffany had passed away. After 2 weeks Joel called Tiffany's mom and said,

"I'm coming home today. Cook something nice po, ha? Don't tell Tiffany that I'm coming home today, I wanna surprise her.

"Her mother replied... "You come home first, I wanna tell you something very important."

After he came, they told him the truth about Tiffany . Joel thought that they were playing a fool.. He was laughing and said "don't try to fool me - tell Tiffany to come out, I have a gift for her. Please stop this nonsense".

Then they showed him her grave. Joel said, "It's not true. We spoke yesterday. She still calls me." Joel was shaking.

Suddenly, his phone rang. "See.. this is from Tiffany, see this..." he showed the phone to Tiffany's family.

All of them told him to answer. He talked using the loudspeaker mode. All of them heard their conversation. Loud and clear, no cross lines, no humming. It was the actual voice of Tiffany & there was no way others could use her SIM card since it was nailed inside the coffin. They were so shocked and asked for the Feng Shui Master's help again.

The Master brought his co-masters to solve this matter. He & his co-masters worked for 5 hours. Then they discovered one thing...

FAITH IN GOD: Take time to read and to share with your friends

2011-10-10T16:59:00.001+08:00

Somewhere in Milaor, Camarines Sur(Philippines), there lived a fourth grader boy who would follow this route to school everyday: He has to cross the rugged plains and cross the dangerous highway where vehicles are recklessly driving to and from.

Once past this highway, the boy would take a short cut, passing by the Church every morning just to say Hi to God, and faithfully say his, "Magandang umaga po" in Bicol dialect. He was faithfully being watched by a Priest who was happy to find innocence so uplifting in the morning,

"Kamusta, Andoy? Papasok ka na?"

"Opo padre ... "he would flash his innocent grin, the priest would be touched. He was so concerned that one day he talked to Andoy.

"From school...", he advised "Do not cross the highway, you can pass through the Church and I can accompany you to the other side of the road...that way I can see that you are home safe...."

"Thank you father ... "

"Why don't you go home ... why do you stay in this church right after school?"

"I just want to say 'Hi' to my friend, God," and the priest would leave the boy to spend time beside the altar, talking to himself, but the priest was hiding behind the altar to listen to what this boy has to say to his heavenly FATHER.

"You know my math exam was pretty bad today, but I did not cheat although my seatmate is bullying me for notes... I ate one cracker and drank my water, Itay had a bad season and all I can eat is this cracker.

Thank you for this! I saw a poor kitten who was hungry and I know how he feels so I gave my last cracker to him ... funny but I am not that hungry.

Look, this is my last pair of slippers ...I may have to walk barefoot next week, you see this is about to be broken... but it is okay....at least I am still going to school.... Some say we will have a hard season this month, some of my classmates have already stopped going to school .... please help them get to school again, please God?

....Oh, you know, Inay hit me again, it is painful, but I know this pain will pass away, at least I still have a mother.... God, you want to see my bruises? I know you can heal them.... Here... here and .... oh ...blood ....I guess you knew about this one huh? Please don't be mad at Inay, she is just tired and she worries for the food in our table and my schooling that is why she hits us....Oh, I think I am in love ... there's this pretty girl in my class, her name is Anita ... do you think she will like me? Anyway, at least I know you will always like me, I don't have to be anybody just to please you, you are my very best friend! Hey your birthday is two days from now!!! Aren't you excited? I am! Wait till you see, I have a gift for you . but it is a surprise! I hope you will like it! Oooops, I have to go ..." then he stood up and calls out, "Padre, padre, I am finished talking to my friend ....

youcan accompany me to the other side of the road now"

This routine happens everyday. Andoy never fails. Father Agaton shares this every Sunday to the people in his church because he has not seen a very pure faith and trust in God, a very positive look at negative situations.

One Christmas day, Father Agaton was sick so he could not make it in the Church, he was sent to the hospital. The Church was left to 4 manangs who would chant the rosary in 1000 miles per hour, would not smile and would always find fault in what you do, they were also very well versed in cursing if you irritate them! They were kneeling, saying their kilometric rosary when Andoy, coming from his Christmas party,playfully dashed in.

"Hello God! I ......"

"P----!! (a curse) bata ka!! Alam mo nang may nagdadasal!! Alis!!"

Poor Andoy was so terrified, "Where's Father Agaton? He is supposed to help me cross the street ... and to be able to cross the street I will have to pass by the back door of this church .not only that, I have to greet Jesus. It is His birthday, I have a gift right here....

" Just as he was about to get the gift out of his shirt, the manang pulled his shirt and threw him out of the church. "Susmaryosep!!! (does the sign of the cross fervently) Alis kang bata ka, kung hindi matatamaan ka!!!

So the boy had no choice but to cross the dangerous side of the road in front of the church. He crossed. A fast moving bus came in.

There was a blind curve. The boy was protecting his gift inside his shirt, so he was not looking. There was so little time. Andoy died on the spot. A lot of people crowded the poor boy, the body of a lifeless young boy ...

Suddenly, out of nowhere a tall man in a pure white shirt and pants, a face so mild and gentle, but with eyes full of tears... He came and carried the boy in His arms. He was crying. Curious bystanders nudged the man in white, and asked,

"Excuse me sir, are you related to this child?

Do you know this child?"

The man in white, His face mourning and in agony, looked up and answered,

"He was my best friend . " was all he said. He took the badly wrapped gift in the bloody chest of the lifeless boy, and placed it near His heart.

He stood up and carried the boy away and they both disappeared in sight.

The crowd was curious ...

On Christmas Eve, Father Agaton learned of the shocking news. He visited the house, and wanted to verify about the man in white. He consulted the parents of Andoy.

"How did you know that your son died?"

"A man in white brought him here." sobbed the mother. "What did he say?"

The father answered, "He did not say anything. He was mourning. We do not know him and yet he was very lonely about our son's death, as if he knew our son very well. But there was something peaceful and unexplainable about him.

He gave me my son, and then he smiled peacefully. He brushed my son's hair away from his face and kissed him on his forehead, then he whispered something..."

"What did he say?"

"He said to my boy..." the father began, "Thank you for the gift .... I will see you soon ... you will be with me..." and the father of the boy continued, "and you know for a while, it felt so

wonderful ... I cried, but I do not know why....all I know is I cried tears of joy .... I could not explain it, Father, but when that man left, something peaceful came over me, I felt a deep sense

of love inside ... I could not explain the joy in my heart, I knew my boy is in heaven now but...tell me, Father, who is this man that my son talks to everyday in your church, you should know because you are always there ... except at the time of his death ......"Father Agaton suddenly felt the tears welling in his eyes, with

trembling knees, he murmurred, " ... He was talking to no one ......

but .. GOD...."

6 Myths Of Freezing Food

2011-10-10T11:50:00.000+08:00

Hilary Meyer, associate editor of EatingWell food magazine

Last week I went to the city in my freezer, throw all kinds of vegetables frozen packages of meat waste. I filled my 13 gallon garbage can, then quickly got out of the trash for collection. I felt very guilty about the amount of food I was throwing, but some of them more like a science experiment from something you ate. I promised myself to have a better balance of things to keep in the freezer, but I could not help feeling guilty for being so useless. Was it really necessary to throw away all this food? So I looked at the facts on freezing foods and find some surprising information that will help me be a little more efficient in the future.

Myth: You can freeze the food.

If it is true most of the edible frozen under the right circumstances, there are some that should never see the inside of the freezer. Delicate vegetables such as lettuce almost break down when they are frozen and then thawed. Creamy sauces, which are frozen and distinct "break" or curdle when thawed. Even the coffee should not be stored in the freezer, especially in dark roasts. Oils that make them so special to break in the cold, the coffee can easily absorb off-flavors. USDA is also not recommended to freeze jars or eggs in shell. (But you can freeze canned foods if they are removed from their original packaging, together with the eggs until they are removed from their shells.)

Myth: You can freeze food indefinitely.

This is true, at least in terms of food safety, quality suffers, but the food is not frozen. Here are some guidelines from the USDA, how long to keep food freezer (0 ° F) for optimum freshness:

Soups, stews and casseroles: 2-3 months

Cooked meats 2-3 months

Cooked steaks, roasts and chops: 4-12 months

Cooked Poultry: 4 months

Raw poultry: 9-12 months

Of course, how the item is stored lengthen or shorten the life of the freezer. Along with moisture in the air is the enemy of frozen foods (that freezer burn), so if you can keep these two elements to give your frozen food and life. That's why I love the vacuum sealer. It sucks air from the containers so food will last longer if they are simply stored in plastic bags or in their original containers.

Myth: Freezing kills the bacteria.

Freezing foods makes the active bacteria, but does not actually kill anyone. This means that if you went to the freezer contaminated food, once thawed, still harbor harmful bacteria, at the same time. The kitchen is the recommended temperature is the only way to ensure food safety.

Myth: Frozen are less nutritious than fresh.

In fact, the opposite may be true. Frozen fruits and vegetables may also be healthier than some of the fresh produce sold in supermarkets because they are usually treated to its degree of ripeness, when they usually are the most nutrient rich. If you are concerned about the loss of nutrients, eat fruits and vegetables frozen immediately after purchase: for several months, frozen vegetables are nutritious inevitably break down. Finally, steam or microwave rather than boil your product to minimize the loss of water-soluble vitamins.

Myth: Once thawed, the food will not be refrozen without cooking it first.

You can freeze and freeze to your liking, as long as food is not left out of refrigeration more than two hours (one hour or 90-degree heat). A point to consider is that all meat refreeze without cooking, in particular, the quality is degraded due to moisture loss in thawing process. Therefore, although technically it is safe to eat, a culinary point of view, is the best way to avoid re-freezing, if possible.

Myth: You can store frozen food in the long term, anywhere in your freezer or anywhere it's cold.

The freezer door is a convenient place to store frozen products, but not necessarily the best place for long term storage. The temperature near the door and varies each time the door is open. Although the food is frozen, the freezing process may be slower, opening the possibility of large ice crystals that form within the food and destroy their integrity. To avoid this, keep frozen foods at the bottom of the freezer, where a constant temperature of 0 degrees F is more likely to reach and use of materials stored in the front or back door. And if the power goes out? Do not open the freezer door! According to the USDA, a full freezer should keep frozen for 2 days. And if you're tempted to store the overflow freezer in a snow bank-only. Even if the temperature is very cold, the sun can still warm your frozen foods at temperatures dangerously hot. This is another great way to store beer, though. So keep doing that.

5 Things You Plan To Work, But Not In The Fact

2011-10-10T11:15:00.000+08:00

Most people are well aware of the placebo effect with regard to medicine. The idea is simply to believe that only cure for your symptoms is often sufficient to perform this treatment takes effect. For example, a patient who thinks he takes Advil for a headache while watching his headaches go away, even if it takes a sugar pill designed to look like a painkiller. The effect is strong enough to control groups in research studies on the effectiveness of treatment will be given a dummy treatment to control the effect.

But the placebo effect is not limited to medicine. In our daily lives we are constantly faced with situations in which the products or services do not work as promised. However, far from complaining to trample on someone, instead of leaving us convinced that the push button did exactly what he said he would. If a button says it will close the doors of the elevator, but does not seem to have the desired effect, we can still find a way to convince us that he was doing what he had said.

"Do not assume that self-deception is always intentional or deliberate," says David McRaney, author of You're not so smart, a book on self-deception. "We often engage in something called confabulation, which is essentially a story that we can believe in to explain the behavior that we do not understand ... We are very good at pattern recognition, and if we have the story correct What are the causes of the trend of course, we learn to associate cause and effect. "

In other words, if the button says it will close the doors of the elevator and the elevator doors do not close until they were pressuring him for 20 seconds, we have always managed to convince us that our actions brought by the result. It's like the man who took sugar pills labeled "Advil" - when the headache goes away by itself after a couple of hours, is convinced that the pill makes the case.

Examples of how this phenomenon affects us daily.

The elevator "close door" button

Let's start with the most obvious example:. Upset that "closing doors" in the elevator is a well established fact that in most elevators is what is essentially a dummy button.

But it's not like lift manufacturers to install an extra button just to give an illusion of control. In fact, McRaney said button can be activated, but only for some people.

'Close buttons do not close the elevator doors, in most elevators built in the United States by the Americans with Disabilities Act, "McRaney said." The button is there for workers and emergency personnel to use, and works only with the key. "

Sure, you could put a sign on the panel studied the situation and lift the drivers, but the notes McRaney, it is difficult to justify the time and money it would take. And then, we would probably weigh, however, convinced that it works this time.

"HD" TV

We are not suggesting that HDTVs are not really high definition, although the techniques of terminology can make it difficult to determine how a good image quality is. But for some people, just to see the "HD" label on TV is enough to convince them that the image is better, even if you have a bad connection or are not watching a HD channel. In short it is a high definition image is enough to convince them that the situation is better, and not until the grandchildren come and show us how to find HD channels were to realize their own dreams.

This is not just anecdotal, but. Dutch researchers did a study in 2009, where 60 people were shown a video clip on the exact same TV. However, half of them had been told that the clip will be high definition, and even the researchers connected a cable TV in more behind the thick end of Charade. The control group was told to expect a normal DVD picture.

They were then asked to describe the image quality. You can imagine that the group thought it was more pleasing to the eye of the image.

Of course, at that HD TVs are ubiquitous enough that most people when they see a high-definition image or not. And as one of the researchers told the magazine New Scientist, the difference between standard definition and high definition is less in Europe than in the U.S., so it would not be as effective here.

Yet it is a good reminder that the assurance that something is "high quality" not only make it more likely that you will buy the product - it can also subtly affect your enjoyment.

Walk Signal Controls

Many towns and cities have buttons that allow pedestrian crossings to speed the arrival of a signal. And in many places, do exactly what they promise to do.

But not everywhere.

The city of New York admitted several years ago that most of the "push-button, wait for the road" buttons are not assets that have long been replaced by automated systems that keep the lights on a timer set. This makes the placebo buttons as buttons to close the door on an elevator.

"As with the elevators, it would be expensive to replace or remove all non-functioning buttons, or to inform the public through a sort of media campaign," said McRaney. "There is no harm in letting people evident in your city powerless to keep buttons of passage for interference."

And many people will continue to grow even more - perhaps a relic of an era reminiscent of the buttons work, or maybe because sometimes they get lucky and the light will change immediately after they grow.

Again, in many municipalities, these buttons actually work. A 2008 study by Canada.com there was no placebo as in Victoria, Canada, although city officials admitted that the various buttons in efficiency.

Butt-Toning Shoes

If the elevator button and walk signal, there is no intentional fraud involved - just changed the technology, and nobody has bothered to inform the people who were still off by pressing in vain. But sometimes it's a classic case of a company makes claims that can not be backed up.

Case in point: the Reebok had just ordered the Federal Trade Commission to pay $ 25 million in bonuses, saying that the "tonic" to strengthen and tone shoes, thighs and butts of people who have used them. The FTC has also banned the company to make such claims in advertising future.

The decision is a blow of potential across the bow of the other companies that market similar shoes in the soles rounded supposed to do your thighs and buttocks do more work while walking. Despite the huge demands from companies like Reebok and Skechers, some experts are skeptical, USA Today last year quoted a professor of medicine, who called the allegations "nonsense" and suggested that their only effect would destabilize the Achilles tendon.

In spite of these skeptics, many customers are very satisfied with their purchase. In his opinion, the decision to respond to the FTC, Reebok spokesman insisted that the company has received "overwhelming feedback from thousands of enthusiastic customers EasyTone". And even though probably a little 'too much exaggeration of companies, we do not doubt that many customers actually come away feeling like they had improved their butt plugs. Maybe the shoes really do the trick. Or maybe they thought they did.

Office Thermostats

Sorry to break it, but large companies are not just going to let an employee warms cold crank every time he wants. But if you just locked the thermostat or put beyond the control workers constantly complain about.

The solution: a thermostat that does not do anything other than to appease the masses cool.

"In many offices on the buttons on the wall, doing nothing," said McRaney. "Some employers and owners feel like they can not trust people not to play with the temperature during the day, which costs them money, so they install dummy thermostats to give people an illusion of control. They work very well, as most people go wrong in thinking that they feel the change. "

When pressed, most of technicians responsible for installing support equipment that are simply a facade. A 2003 survey by the Wall Street Journal quoted an HVAC technician, who estimated that 90% of office thermostats are completely wrong (although other technical gave lower estimates).

We have not seen any studies that confirm that people feel warmer after playing with these accessories. But let's be honest: If you work, the offices did not bother to install.

Nobel Peace Prize goes to women's rights activists

2011-10-07T21:51:00.000+08:00

Oslo, Norway (AP) - Africa's first democratically elected president of the women, a Liberian activist against rape and a woman who stood up to the autocratic regime of Yemen, won the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday in recognition of the importance of women's rights in the spread of world peace.

The 10 million kronor (1.5 million) prize was split three ways between the Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Women's rights activist Leymah Gbowee the same African countries and democracy activist Tawakkul Karman in Yemen - the first woman Arabic to win the award.

Chairman of the Norwegian Nobel Committee told the Associated Press that the price of Karman should be considered as a signal that the two women and Islam have important roles to play in the rebel known as the Arab spring, the wave anti-authoritarian rebellion has challenged leaders throughout the Arab world.

"The Arab Spring can not succeed without the involvement of women in", said Jagland.

He said Karman, 32, belongs to a movement with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist group "that the West is perceived as a threat to democracy." He added: "I do not think so. There are many indications that such movement can be an important part of the solution."

Yemen is a very conservative society, but is a characteristic of the rebellion has had a significant role in women who turned out to protest in large numbers. Uprising, however, was one of the least successful, not to overthrow President Ali Abdullah Saleh as the country goes down a failed state status and armed groups to take a stronger role. Riots in Libya and Syria, women have been largely absent. And when it was a lot of women protesters in the Egyptian revolution, had a few key leadership positions.
Karma is a mother of three main groups of human rights of women journalists without chains. It 'been a leading figure in organizing protests against Saleh, which began in late January.

"I am very pleased with this award," Karma told the Associated Press. "I will give a prize for young people and the revolution in Yemen, the Yemeni people."

Referring to the Arab spring alone would have been problematic for the committee. Libya in the civil war that led to military intervention by NATO. Egypt and Tunisia is still in turmoil. Hawks are now in power in Yemen and Syria and Saudi-led forces crushed the uprising in Bahrain, leaving an uncertain issue for the Arab protests.

Jagland told AP it was difficult to find a leader of the rebellion of the Arab spring, especially among the many bloggers who have played a role in the activation of protests, and noted that work began before Karman revolt Arabic.

"It was not easy for us to say to choose one of Egypt or Tunisia to pick one, because there was so much," he said. "We do not want to say that one was more important than others."

Karman "activism began long before the revolution took place in Tunisia and Egypt. It was a very courageous woman in Yemen for a long time," said Jagland.

No woman had won since 2004, when the honorary committee of Wangari Maathai of Kenya, who died last month aged 71. 2004 was also the last year the award went to an African.

Liberia has been ravaged by civil wars for years, until 2003. The term conflict that began in 1989 left some 200,000 dead and displaced half the country's population of 3 million euros. The country - created to settle freed American slaves in 1847 - is still struggling to maintain a fragile peace with the help of the peacekeepers of the UN.

Although he lost in a landslide, has risen to national prominence and earned the nickname "Iron Lady". He went on to become the Africa's first democratically elected female leader in 2005.
Sirleaf was seen as a reformer and peacemaker in Liberia, where he assumed office. She is running for re-election this month and the opposition in the presidential campaign has been accused of vote buying and use of public funds for campaigning. His camp denies the charges. The election is Tuesday.

"It gives me a greater willingness to work for reconciliation," Sirleaf said Friday at his home in Monrovia. "Africans should be proud of Liberia."

The buttons on his presidential campaign says it all: "Ellen - she's our man."

Jagland said that the committee does not consider the forthcoming elections in Liberia, as he made his decision.

"We can not conclude that the domestic counterparts," he said. "We must look to the will of Alfred Nobel, the prize should go to someone who has done more for world peace."

African and international lighting satisfied with the news. Many were gathered in Cape Town, South Africa, on Friday to celebrate 80 anniversary of the Nobel Prize Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

"Who? Johnson Sirleaf? Liberian President? Oooh, "said Desmond Tutu, who won the peace prize in 1984 for his nonviolent campaign against the white racist regime in South Africa." She deserves more than once. It has brought stability to a place that was to hell. "

U2 leader Bono - who has figured in the speculation of the Peace Prize in previous years - called "extraordinary woman, a force of nature and has now recognized the world in this big, big way, great." Sirlaf a

Gbowee who organized a group of Christian and Muslim women to challenge the Liberian warlords, was honored for the mobilization of women "through ethnic and religious lines to bring an end to the long war in Liberia, and to ensure women's participation in elections. "

Gbowee has long campaigned for the rights of women against rape. In 2003, led hundreds of women protesters through Monrovia to demand rapid disarmament of the fighters who attacked women throughout Liberia for 14 years of almost continuous civil war.

Gbowee working in the capital of Ghana as Director of Women for Peace and Security Network Africa. The group's website says she is a mother of five.

"I know Leymah be a brave warrior to go where others dare not," said Assistant Gbowee, Bertha Amanor. "So it is just and right, and a very nice person."

Karman is Taiz, a city in southern Yemen, a hotbed of resistance against the regime of Saleh and now lives in the capital, Sanaa. She is a journalist and member of Islah, an Islamic party. His father is a former Legal Affairs Minister Saleh.

Long defends human rights and freedom of expression in Yemen, has campaigned for the ouster of Saleh in 2006 and installed the Yemeni initiative to organize groups of young people and the opposition as part of the National Council.

Karma was arrested Jan. 23 at home. When a general protest against his detention - is rare, women in Yemen to be in prison - was released the next day.

Karman was the nickname of "Iron Lady," Mother of the Revolution "and" The spirit of the Yemeni revolution "by fellow protesters.

Apple "disappointing" Message Of The IPhone 4S Apple "disappointing" Message Of The IPhone 4S

2011-10-05T22:26:00.001+08:00

Giant button points to many of his devoted fans Tuesday reveals iPhone suped-up 4 instead of a brand iPhone May 9
When many voices full month of feverish anticipation, Apple fans had greeted the recent opening ceremony on Tuesday, the latest iPhone. In the end, the Apple iPhone does not notify the 5, which is a new look and powerful, but only the iPhone 4S with the same look and suped-up, and the price of the iPhone to cut the old patterns. (The new iPhone will be sold 4S $ 199 and $ 399, and will go on sale October 14.) Many people have talked about Apple's statement "a disappointment". Is this true?

Do not judge by its cover smartphone: Of course, "if you liked the iPhone brand new 5 today, you might be a little 'disappointed," said Erick Schoenfeld at TechCrunch. But if you can get past that the iPhone looks like the iPhone 4 4S, you can actually find some major changes. Is there a faster processor, dual CDMA / GSM chip so that it works over cellular networks around the world, and much improved camera. Then there is a new software: IOS 5, of applications that operate icloud, and, above all, Siri assistant, voice-activated virtual assistant who can answer your questions and respond to natural language commands.

It is easy to see why Apple customers are disgusted: It has been 15 months since the iPhone was released four and all we get is an iPhone 4S? said Dan Lyons at The Daily Beast. It is "a disappointment for hardcore Apple fans." Of course, Siri is "pretty amazing", but mostly it seems that "Apple is pleased to continue to sell what they have." For years, Apple has been an innovator in the market, but now there are fears that increased complacency. "Whether in fact the case remains to be seen."

"Deception Apple iPhone"

In addition, Apple could have done better expectations, "In the past year, we suffered a lot of rumors almost daily in a device called the iPhone 5" and imagine that would get "something spectacular," said Chris Taylor Mashable. However, Apple has delivered a "more guts advanced iPhone" is not a "new device icon, it should be." Apple media generally works quite well and manages the expectations of its major product launches. But this time, curiously, the company did not. "Apple is losing control of the message?"

Wait. The iPhone is not even the biggest news story: "A real gem hidden" ad "is not necessarily a new iPhone at all, but rather to an earlier statement of submission of the Mac market share growth," says Market Intelligence Center. New Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said Apple now controls 23 percent of the marke computers, and that the Macbook Air and iMac are respectively the number one desktop and laptop computers in the country. This is a great thing - the Apple was once a cult brand that has struggled to get his foot. Forget the iPhone 4S - "the real news might be a strength of Mac computers and how they are shaped by technology, the world as we know it."

"I'm not trying to get the first interview of Amanda Knox after the show ... I will not pay for interviews in any way," Nancy said Shaun. "I think if he gets paid directly, or if it is a license fee for photography, the way a lot of networks around paying for interviews, I definitely do not have any show where you have to pay for guests and interviews. Secondly, I do not think he is going to tell the truth, anyway, so what's the difference? "
