Following in the footsteps of the record-breaking Marvel Studios' release, "Marvel's The Avengers," production on the highly anticipated release, Marvel's "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" has commenced in Los Angeles, California, with production also including locations in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington D.C. Directing the film is the team of Anthony and Joe Russo ("Welcome to Collinwood") from a screenplay written by Christopher Markus ("Captain America: The First Avenger") & Stephen McFeely ("Captain America: The First Avenger"). "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" returns Chris Evans ("Captain America: The First Avenger," "Marvel's The Avengers") as the iconic super hero character Steve Rogers/Captain America, along with Scarlett Johansson ("Marvel's The Avengers," "Iron Man 2") as Black Widow and Samuel L. Jackson ("Marvel's The Avengers," "Iron Man 2") as Nick Fury. In addition, film icon Robert Redford has joined the all-star cast as Agent Alexander Pierce, a senior leader within the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization. "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" is set for release in the U.S. on April 4, 2014.
 

"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" will pick-up where "Marvel's The Avengers" left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff, a.k.a. Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day Washington, D.C.

Ibis Smartwatch Concept

Posted: 26 Feb 2014 11:20 AM PST


 

Unlike most smartwatches, the Ibis was designed as a watch first. The elegant, metal design resembles a timepiece you would expect to see in a jewelry store. The "smart" part was conceived with the intention of supporting, not overwhelming the device's primary function.

 
Smartwatches don't have to be ugly and this concept is proof

MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

This is the free version.

The app can be used to track the tv shows you are watching. You can mark the episodes you have watched. And keep an eye on episodes that are yet to be broadcast in the USA.

Comes very handy to see when the next episode of your favorite show would be broadcast.

Free version does not have ads from what I see. They suggest going for the paid version if you want to support the platform.

Posted Image

Benefits of the paid version:

SeriesGuide X adds more list widget options and notifications for favorited shows.


There is an option in the settings to change the timezone to your own by adding number of hours. I am yet to see what number to add. If anyone is using the app here on the forum please tell me :D

"Google Earth utilizes broadband streaming technology and 3D graphics, much like a videogame, enabling users to interactively explore the world-- either their own neighborhood or the far corners of the globe," said Keyhole general manager John Hanke. Unlike Google Maps, Google Earth also lets users rotate their view to see terrain and buildings, and add annotations to maps. Google Earth can be downloaded for Windows; a Mac version is currently in development.

X Men: Days of Future Past

Posted: 26 Feb 2014 09:31 AM PST

Deadline reports that Fox made quick work of replacing their vacant director's chair and will likely be able to keep their July 18th, 2014 release date as a result. Fans should be familiar with Singer's work as he wrote and directed both 2000′s X-Men and 2003′s follow-up, X2. He also turned in the script for Vaughn's X-Men: First Class along with an ensemble of other writers, including Vaughn. We also got confirmation of the title from Singer recently. It follows the 1980s' comic storyline written by Chris Claremont that alternates between a present day battle against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and a future timeline where an assassination of a government official has led to Sentinels roaming the land and mutants held prisoner in internment camps.
The cast from the original film is expected to return, including Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.
