I am excited about this news. That said, the chemistry between the stars will make or break the movie. I really hope the focus on that vs just gender swapping the original cast.
The all-new, all-female Ghostsbusters are here. Melissa McCarthy, who was already in talks for one of the leads, has signed on for the Paul Feig-directed reboot, and the studio is now negotiating with Kristen Wiig as well as Saturday Night Live players Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

One of the most valuable skills I picked up in the USAF was understanding how fallible you memory is and how to work around that limitation.
Implanting a false memory of committing a crime is easier than you think.

I am excited to play Homeworld again. It was/is one of the few games that really made me rethink what games can do.

Deflategate, so much easier to discuss with sincere earnestness than concussions, domestic violence, and labor rights. I doubt the NFL could have wished for a better day of 'bad' news.
Brunell, Jerome Bettis and Brian Dawkins all agreed that Brady's insistence that he wasn't aware that footballs were deflated lacked credibility.

I can't imagine this working. That data is simply too valuable. Someday it feels like the internet is powered by little else but personnel data driven marketing. Basically, that ship left port a long time ago. At this point, it would be more practical to regulate and define ownership/rights of this data.
Both industry and Congress are aligned to keep personal data available.

There is always one commenter who makes the 'speed doesn't kill, the lack of skill kills' argument on these sorts of stories. It is, as always, an egocentric argument that ignores the negative potentiality of so much energy stored in a mass hurtling down the freeway at excessively high speed.

Things beyond the drivers control/skill can create a catastrophic series of events that are avoidable/mitigable by simply driving at suggested speeds. A drivers skill cannot prevent mechanical failure, other drivers' poor decisions, local wildlife collisions, and unexpected road debris.
The first Lamborghini Huracan crash happened in Hungary last September. Now there's video showing how it went down, recorded by the passenger with a mobile phone and released by the police.

And yet the results are meaningless as the understanding of the question is different between a US adult and a AAAS scientist. People may distrust GMOs for more than the the very narrow reason that, strictly speaking, GMOs are safe for human consumption. A US adult is likely to read that question in a much broader context than a AAAS scientist.
Survey results published Thursday by the Pew Research Center in collaboration with the American Academy for the Advancement of Science indicate most Americans hold science in high esteem, while revealing huge opinion gaps between scientists and the general public over issues like GMOs and anthropogenic climate change.

The updated models with larger screens definitely helped demand but I think a lot of this success is also due to Apple supply chain improvements. Not only was Apple able to cut in a new design with a new screen but they were able to do it at volume. Too often in the past, Apple has been crippled by supply constraints. They could have sold more phones if only they had phones to sell. Success at this scale is due to doing A LOT of things right.
The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have helped Apple sell an astounding 74.5 million iPhones during the first quarter of the company's fiscal 2015 year. That's more..

Seriously, that is just good business on Apple's part.
Apple's gain looks to be its rivals' big loss.

I feel more prepared to engage in shoe activities after watching this video.

As someone who shops heavily on Amazon, this doesn't surprise me in the least. The only guarantee you have shopping with Amazon is that the price will be competitive and will arrive at your door in two days.

Where Amazon wins nearly every time when buying physical products is the savings in time, convenience, and gas. Getting in the car and driving to the store is expensive when you factor in these hidden costs. For me, this is why I shop Amazon.

For non-physical items like movies, games, etc, I am not a die-hard Amazon shopper.. Here, there is more parity between retailers. Price/service(s) become more important in this scenario.
