Rumor:Apple next to release fifth-gen, SIM-less iPhone with 8MP camera by early August..

A new rumor that a late July to early August release timeframe for Apple's anticipated fifth-generation iPhone, said to include an 8-megapixel camera and a SIM-less design that will not be a major departure from the current iPhone 4 design.

A Source reported on Monday that the next iPhone will have the same form factor as the iPhone 4, and will use an ARM Cortex-A9 processor. The report said it is "not confirmed" whether the new processor will have a single CPU or is dual-core.

And also the handset will have an 8-megapixel camera, and a SIM-less design along with 3-4 internal antennas that will allow the device to serve as a "world phone" compatible with both GSM and CDMA networks. That would allow the same hardware to run on both AT&T and Verizon networks in the U.S.

The report claims that the device, which will include a Qualcomm chipset, will be released at the end of July or in early August.

IL MUNGITORE

Nei primi anni novanta frequentai un I.T.I.S. con diversi personaggi presenti ed ognuno con le sue chicche.
Uno dei migliori era il sciur Pagano da quel di Settimo,noto a tutti come un gran trombatore e per questo invidiato da noi giovani brufolosi dediti anima e corpo all'autoerotismo da interni.
Un giorno ci raccontò di aver scoperto in alcuni libri del padre(appassionato di yoga) una tecnica di allungamento del pene di origine orientale dove con la costante mungitura dello stesso si ottenevano risultati sconcertanti: allungamenti kilometrici ed erezioni eterne,bastava solo oliarsi per bene, fare il segno dell'ok con la mano e stringere il ciuffolo tra indice e pollice mungendo come Peter.
Rimasi molto dubbioso e presi tutto ciò come un burlarsi nei nostri confronti di poveri adepti della masturbazione.
Tutto ciò rimase nell'ombra fino a due giorni fa, quando un mio collega con fare discreto mi fa vedere un sito dove lui stesso aveva tratto benefici fisici e psicologici con........l'allungamento del pene per mungitura!!!!!
Il sito illustava per filo e per segno gli esercizi che il mitologico Pagano ci aveva tramandato vent'anni fa e che noi miscredenti avevamo bollato come eresie!!!
Cribbio come cambia il mondo sta di fatto che dopo aver ascoltato gli elogi del mio collega su questa tecnica ho immaginato il Pagano in qualche grotta nel Pakistan in posizione del loto, immerso in una beata meditazione ed avvolto,nell'invidia di tutti noi miscedenti, da un pene kilometrico!!!!!
Nuove generazioni dateci dentro ed otterrete risultati sbalorditivi......si spera!!!

Zen Interior Decorating and Design

Zen Buddhism, a way of thinking and living branches of art. Zen Zen home decor is related to the principle of daily life, which emphasized simplicity and natural harmony. No right or wrong. You do not need a bamboo mat or commercial screen to make your home more Zen. Zen decoration is flexible and unlimited. It all depends on how you imagine the harmony and hope into a tangible image.

The key to Zen is a simple decoration. Our aim is to create a harmonious interior, a simple flow, there is no obsticals, clutter, or on the road, so you 'is' in the moment uneccesary project. Although Zen is a simple decoration, project, in every family should have a specific use, although they simple clear, with strong features.

Zen to work within, it means using more natural materials to decorate your home. Tone in the home should be simple, and furniture around the house you should have simple, clean lines, and should meet the same color scheme. You can also add attachments, create a Zen room, but that in the carpet weaving areas, different plants and simple flower arrangements, rice lights, and even stones and silk pillows on the couch.

1. 

Natural lighting is also very important, because Zen encourages the entire home furnishings and large windows let in the light feeling is very easy to create a more favorable state of meditation. If you are going to your home to a new level, you can also consider creating a Zen garden. The idea is to work with you in this way home you will find a balance between form and space, whether you look or go.

A Picnic, Vintage Morris Minor and the Chelsea Flower Show

I felt like this sweet thing upon arrival at the Chelsea Flower Show yesterday.

I thought...if I could just move this person and that person, then

just maybe I could get a picture of...something.

That's the way of these things...you just have to be prepared.

Last year I managed a ticket for arrival first thing in the morning.

This year, I was a bit late into the game and only managed

an early evening ticket, starting at 5:30pm.

To be honest, it is wonderful to be there any time of the day.

You just have to go with the flow.

So....while I organise my photo files, I thought

I would invite you to join me on a picnic.

How about we fire up the motor on this beauty below,

a Morris Minor 1000 Traveller Estate Wagon.

I am seriously wondering if I could tuck this car away in one of

our containers on our next move. We brought two 40' containers from

New Zealand to England...what's one more when it is in the name of love?

I say, we take the car, park it under a big old tree, 

with a view of the English countryside. 

How about a trailer off the back of the car to tote along this shed?

A shed of our own and the comfort of a big old tree.

We can call it home sweet home for the afternoon.

We would not have to pack much as I would have planned a hamper

from Fortnum and Mason (here) because really...when you are going on a picnic..you

just have to do it right.  Be sure to bring your latest summer hat, we must take care 

from the sun in the name of midlife beauty. My latest thoughts on that, here.

  

 I like the notion of bringing along a few vintage 

gardening books to keep in the spirit of the moment. 

Cameras, sketch pads, music, arm chairs, 

a few kilim rugs, overstuffed pillows....

Do you think it will fit?

I promise to pack a few surprises in these vintage suitcases to keep

us entertained. If I gave one to you to pack for our picnic,

what would you bring along?

In the spirit of a weekend outing, I am sending you best wishes

for a wonderful weekend. Short or long, I hope it is fruitful !

More on Chelsea Flower Show coming up...

an inspiration or two at a time. :)

London fog, Tate Modern and Joan Miro

The Litte Fair-haired Girl at the Amusement Park
Joan Miro, 1950

I woke up this morning and admit I felt bleary eyed and tired. It was one of those 

mornings where I could have easily slept a while longer. The skies were grey, 

I had a mad rush to get the kids off to school and then catch a train to London 

and all I really wanted to do was sleep...just a little while longer. Being one of those 

annoying people who is always giving herself pep talks, I soldiered on.

My fog followed me into London.

and a bit further,

until...

I rounded the corner and came upon my final destination.

The Tate Modern Gallery to see the Joan Miro exhibit.

Needing further fortifications I stopped in at the Gallery Cafe 

for coffee and stared at the view. St Paul's Cathedral was in front of me, 

thru the lovely birch tree garden and over the Thames. 

With every sip, I could feel the morning fog melting away.

It is a good thing that my fog lifted because what was in store for me in this fabulous 

Joan Miro exhibit required my rapt attention.  There were over 150 paintings, drawings, 

sculptures and prints for me to pour over. This London exhibit is the first major retrospective

of Joan Miro to be held in nearly 50 years.  To be honest, I was not sure what I would think.

I went in a bit skeptical and came out a great admirer. His work is thought provoking 

to say the least. Although much of his work was painted thru desperate times 

(Spanish Civil War and Second World War), I felt a playfulness in his some 

of his work that was endearing.

The Passage of the Divine Bird
Joan Miro, 1941

A Star Caresses the Breast if a Negress (Painting Poem)
Joan Miro, 1938

Vegetable Garden and Donkey
Joan Miro, 1918

Drop of Water on the Rose-Coloured Snow
Joan Miro, 1968

I left the gallery, thankful that I gave myself that little pep talk earlier in the day.

Shortly after, the heavens above shed tear drops upon London

and I managed to catch one or two.

Wink, wink, blink, blink...off to bed for me.

Big day tomorrow....Chelsea Flower Show.

I won't need a pep talk for that one!

:))

Have a great weekend everyone!!

Banksy

I have to write about a picture, but I prefer to write about an street artist called Banksy, who makes his art in the public space producing a lot of images in the city every day. Nobody knows excatly who Banksy is, because he is an anonimous grafitti artist. The only thing we know, it's that he is english, because his work has been known in the stretts of english cities.He gives to his art a lot of political content, like anti-capitalism, anarchism, exsistencialsm or anti-imperialism and how his way of producing art is sometimes illegal, he doesn't say his real identity. 

The techinque more used by Banksy, is the stencil, that consists in a thin sheet of material that you cut in the form of letters and images applying pigment trough the cut-holes in the material. I really like this technique because the work is done just once and then you can reproduce the image all the times that you want without taking a lot of time or doing a big work. In his stencils, Banksy shows a part of the reality in a very creative way, giving social and political messages with an irreverent dark humour, not only in the streets, because Banksy also puts his works in the museums in a clandestine way, he has had exhibitions and he has make films too, all this from the anonymity and without beeing discovered his formal identity.
I really like the art of Banksy, but not only in an aesthetic sense, because I think that the ideas that he represents by his work are very important for our society, because he is able to show our problems in a very atttractive way so everyone see it.
