Galaxy S 3 to be offered in blue and white?

It's the day before a pretty significant product announcement (we'll be there!), so we're bound to see more leaks today, like this one suggesting that the Galaxy S 3 (or is it Galaxy S III) will be offered in more than one color at launch.  ?GSMarena? got a hold of an inventory screen shot from Carphone Warehouse suggesting that Samsung will launch the "Next Galaxy" in blue and white.  As we've seen with the Galaxy Note, though, Samsung's idea of blue is more of a black with a blue tint in the right light.  If this is true it'll be nice to have more than one color option at launch, as opposed to having to wait a little longer for the mythical white version that gets everyone all excited.

Junior Seau Suicide Renews NFL Concussion Debate

Junior Seau's grieving family does NOT believe the former football great's death was related to on-field concussions he sustained as a player, but his suicide has nevertheless renewed an ongoing debate over the NFL and brain injuries.

Police found Junior Seau dead yesterday at his San Diego County home.

Seau family sources tell say the death shocked them even more than it did his many fans, as Junior never complained about concussion-related medical problems, nor did he mention or appear to be suffering from depression.

Seau never spoke, allegedly, about the ongoing legal dispute between the NFL and retired players who claim the league concealed critical information about long-term effects of concussions over the past few decades.

Junior's apparent suicide, from a gunshot wound to the chest, instantly drew comparisons to the death of former Chicago Bears safety Dave Duerson.

Duerson left a suicide note explaining he shot himself in the chest because he wanted his brain to be sent to the "NFL brain bank" for further study.

The family is unsure why Junior wanted to kill himself, but feel there isn't necessarily a link to concussions and Duerson comparisons are premature.

Neurosurgeon Julian Bailes, longtime researcher into brain damage from concussions, responded with grief and medical questions about what toll Junior's lengthy football career (20 seasons) might have taken on the 43-year-old.

"As both a football fan and a researcher, the news comes with great sadness first of all for such a great player. But I think we have to add him to the list of those that we worry about who could have effects of chronic, repetitive brain trauma," said Bailes.

The chairman of the Department of Neurosurgery at the NorthShore University HealthSystem in Chicago added, "We don't have any strong evidence (yet about Seau), and we know that people commit suicide for other reasons. … But to me it's also concerning due to the fact that he had such a long playing history."

"The emerging research is perhaps pointing to the amount of exposure to repetitive head contacts being like a dose response. … The more you're exposed to sun light; you get a higher chance of skin cancer. … The more CAT Scans you have; you are exposed to radiation and perhaps side effects."

The Real Housewives of Orange County Recap: What Happens in Vegas ...

This week’s RHOC picks up where last week’s left off, with Gretchen becoming a Pussycat Doll and the gang, including Vicki, is all in Vegas to support her.

But will all the good will between Gretchen and Vicki be left in the desert?

Here’s THG's +/- recap of The Real Housewives of Orange County!

The girls are all nervous for Gretchen. Gretchen’s nervous for Gretchen. Everyone’s nervous. Except the ACTUAL Pussycat Dolls. While Gretchen changes into her performance outfit, everybody else enjoys the show.

Vicki says Brooks is from the South so he’s never seen anything like this.

Tamra says she could be a gynecologist now.

Plus 5 for the giggles.

It’s time for Gretchen to perform and Alexis’ prayers didn’t pay off. That was rough. But, like Tamra said, she looked great? That’s a plus, right?

The gang has ventured back to Slade and Gretchen’s hotel room for a post-Pussycat Dolls party and to celebrate Gretchen’s birthday. Vicki brought Gretchen a birthday present AND an apology. And then Vicki ruins it by expecting an apology back from Gretchen. Plus 10 for the apology and Minus 20 for ruining the moment.

Slade makes a toast to Gretchen for her hard work. It’s really sweet. Plus 5.

The next day, Brooks and Vicki hit the Blackjack tables with Tamra and Eddie. Heather and Terry join them. Tamra and Heather commend Vicki for apologizing to Gretchen. Vicki doesn’t want toxic relationships in her life which is why she says she apologized.

Slade and Gretchen are having a moment. He says that if she just always does what she loves, she’ll never work a day in her life. That that’s why he feels like he’s never worked. She says she’s the luckiest girl in the world. They’re so sweet they make me sick.

Vicki and Brooks are looking at one of Vicki’s properties. Now that she’s divorcing Donn, she’s got to sell off the home they planned to retire in. Or live in it.

Brooks, with one of his Brooks-isms, says “life is 10% what happens to you, honey, and 90% how you respond.”

Ugh. Minus 25 for creeping me out.

Alexis has decided to meet with Gretchen’s hosting coach. Jim and Alexis have prayed about it after their conversation last week, but she says they got different answers from those prayers.

The hosting coach uses a metaphor about a bus driver and a passenger on a bus and then says “You’re not ready to drive this bus.” That’s an understatement, hosting coach lady. Then she calls her a bimbo. Sort of. Plus 10 hosting coach lady.

After three attempts at reporting on a fake news story, the hosting coach declares Alexis has potential.

Heather and Terry meet up with Gretchen and Slade for dinner. They begin their dinner conversation by talking about Heather and Terry’s worry beads. Then the conversation turns to Gretchen’s career path. She says she’s thinking of Broadway. Or a recording contract. Or performing on stage again.

Hmm, maybe not Broadway, Gretch. Let’s stick to things that can be auto-tuned. But I still love you.

Then the conversation turns to Vicki’s apology and Gretchen’s decision not to return the apology. Heather thinks Vicki could’ve gone about things in a different way and would have perhaps gotten a different response. Like maybe if she hadn’t demanded an apology she would’ve gotten one.

And then they talk about Alexis and Terry calls her phony. Plus 10 to the doctor! Gretchen says that she’s seen a change in Alexis since Gretchen and Tamra have repaired their friendship.
Heather cuts Terry off. No more wine for him! Minus 10 to Heather for ruining the fun.

Tamra’s son, Ryan, has his first apartment and Tamra shows up with a care package for him - towels and cleaning supplies. Ryan has no furniture so Tamra takes him shopping. She asks him how much he plans to spend and he says “$600 bucks”? Tamra says they might need to go to Ikea instead. She offers to let him borrow the money and he breaks into a sweat.

Eddie calls and tells her not to let him borrow the money. That he needs to figure things out for himself. Which he does while she’s on the phone. He finds a couch within his budget and Tamra throws in some end tables as a gift. Minus 10. He didn’t need the tables.

Vicki, Briana, and Briana’s boyfriend Ryan go to dinner. Ryan’s a Marine and Briana has a thing for men in uniform. And speaking of uniforms and the Marines, Briana has a bomb to drop on her mom.
She got married. In Vegas. In a drive-through chapel.

I LOVE THIS GIRL. Plus 25!!

She says they didn’t tell Vicki about their plans because if she had, she would’ve had to turn her phone off for a week.

Vicki’s speechless. Finally.

EPISODE TOTAL: EVEN! SEASON TOTAL:-25!

Next week, Vicki will finally introduce Brooks and Briana and Slade will ask for Gretchen’s hand in marriage. The old fashioned way. Like Vicki wishes Ryan had done.

Loopc.am Stops Being A Gimmick And Starts Getting Funding

Loopc.am has lately become a little bit of a craze amongst some iPhone users I know. Frankly, at first it seemed like something of a gimmick. Recording and sharing short gif-based videoclips called loops seemed like a temporary blip. I mean, why not just do a video and upload it somewhere? But word on the street is that users have taken to the app in droves and that is leading to significant traction in, perhaps, the same way that people took to sharing filter-altered images on Instagram. Loopc.am is also continuing an interesting startup tradition out of Berlin right now, joining EyeEm on the 'photography' front, and the 'Berlin Swedish Mafia' of Soundcloud and Readmill. But Loopc.am Founder Tor Rauden K?llstigen feels animated loops are a brand new category of shareable content, and so do his investors, Passion Capital, who today doing an undisclosed seed financing round. Alongside them are angel investors including Zoe Adamovicz (Xyologic, Concise Software), Alexander Ljung (Soundcloud), Heilemann Ventures (Dailydeal), Christophe Maire (Txtr), Felix Petersen (Amen), Peter Read and Eric Wahlforss (Soundcloud). The new funds will be used for growing the team and accelerating product development, including expanding the Loopc.am app client to support other platforms.
