BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) ? It got a little awkward during NBC's "Parenthood" panel at the Television Critics Association summer press tour when Craig T. Nelson was asked about whether he regrets making recent comments about the network not supporting the show.
Last March, Nelson was quoted as saying NBC was "out of it" and didn't do enough to promote the series.
On Saturday Nelson said, "You get associated with a show that you love and a show that you believe in and a cast that's just extraordinary and you get frustrated with the fact that it doesn't seem to be honored the way that you feel it should be... I've been doing like 18 years of series television and I haven't been associated with a show...this wonderful."
Nelson went on to say he was "proud" of speaking out.
Executive Producer Jason Katims countered the comments saying, "The fact that we're sitting here on a panel going into a fifth season is indicative of the passion the network does feel for the show."
At this point Monica Potter mouthed "I'm so uncomfortable!"
Earlier, chairman of NBC Entertainment Robert Greenblatt, called "Parenthood" one of its "great, quality shows" and expressed frustration that the show doesn't get more acclaim.
"It doesn't get the Emmy nominations. It doesn't get the accolades. It's one of the best shows on television, and I wish it had more of that acclaim."
The network has picked up "Parenthood" for 22 episodes for its fifth season. The last time it had a full order was the show's second season. It will air on Thursdays with "The Michael J. Fox Show" and "Sean Saves the World" starring Sean Hayes.
"Parenthood" follows a large family living in the San Francisco area with all of its ups-and-downs. It also stars Peter Krause, Lauren Graham, Dax Shepard and Erika Christensen.
It premieres Sept. 26 at 10p.m. EDT.

The University of Colorado Boulder reported it is being investigated by the U.S. Department of Education Office of Civil Rights over its handling of an alleged sexual assault involving a student.
The university first became aware of the federal inquiry on June 21, CU Boulder spokesman Bronson Hilliard said. The CU-Boulder chancellor's office sent an internal memo to the student body, faculty and staff on Wednesday afternoon.
"You have to be very careful in announcing an investigation," Hilliard said. "You want to make sure you have all the details correct about what the precise focus of the investigation is."
The internal memo from Chancellor Philip P. DiStefano acknowledged the actions the Office of Civil Rights is undertaking but said it couldn't provide any details about the case.
DiStefano said that he has ordered an external review of the university's Title IX compliance efforts to make sure its procedures dealing with sexual misconduct meet guidelines. Since 1972, Title IX has regulated gender-based discrimination - including sexual assault and harassment -- in education settings.
Sarah Gilchriese, a 20-year-old communications major at CU Boulder, said in a phone interview she filed the complaint with the OCR because she was unhappy with the way the university handled her case.
Gilchriese said she was sexually assault by another student off-campus during the middle of February. She reported the assault to CU-Boulder's Office of Student Conduct around March 3.
The student conduct office undertook an investigation and suspended the alleged assailant from school for eight months, fined him $75 and assigned him to write a paper reflecting on the incident. The university took nearly a month, Gilchriese said, to have her assailant removed from the campus.
"He was going to be allowed back on campus when I'm still a student and that's wrong," Gilchriese said.
She said she hired a lawyer and went to court to get a protection order so he could not return.
"I want (CU) to amend their policies to protect the victims," Gilchriese said. "I didn't ask for this to happen to me."
Gilchriese said she filed a police report. The alleged assailant has not been charged with a crime.
The Post does not typically identify the victims of sexual crimes, but Gilchriese chose to be identified.
CU-Boulder is standing by its record of Title IX compliance, Hilliard said. He said the external review ordered by DiStefano is designed to make sure the university is in full compliance with Title IX.
In 2007, the university settled two claims filed under Title IX, paying female students who were sexually assaulted by football players and high-school recruits at a 2001 party a total of $2.8 million and agreeing to add staff to help CU prevent sexual harassment and misconduct.
Hilliard said the university enacted a series of reforms as a result of the settlement and since then has "basically been in rolling review to make sure we are in compliance with Title IX."

Whenever there's a big news story, scammers and cyberthieves are quick to take advantage of Internet users' curiosity in order to plant malware on their computers and steal sensitive personal information.
The baby boy born yesterday (July 22) to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge ? aka Prince William and the former Kate Middleton ? is probably no exception.
So be very careful if you're Googling for news about the royal tot or for terms such as "royal baby photos" or "Princess Kate."
Online criminals carry out search engine poisoning to turn news-seekers into victims, using marketing techniques to boost phony links to supposedly exclusive items up to the top of Web search results.
But instead of being taken to real news or photos, victims often end up on corrupted or deliberately phony sites that can infect their computers.
Scammers do similar things with videos. Promises of "leaked" footage are common, but there's often a catch: You'll be asked to allow video-player "installers" or "updates" to be installed.
Instead of allowing a movie to play in your browser, the downloads could actually contain any number of nasty programs, including ransomware, spyware or other Trojans.
[7 Security Spring Cleaning Tips]
As of this writing, there are no legitimate images or videos of the infant prince on the Internet, so any links that purport to have them could be attempting to harm you.
Criminals also prey on celebrity news junkies in the form of phishing emails that promise "exclusive" information about a breaking story.
For example, the royal family has revealed the new prince's birth weight, but that's about all anybody knows so far. The public is clamoring to know the little guy's name, eye color and any other tiny detail.
Scammers feed off this hunger and may try to get the better of nosy news hounds by emailing to victims messages that claim to have links to secret details about the royal baby.
But the recipient will first have to take a survey, log in to Facebook (beware of fake login pages) or provide his name, address and credit-card number.
To avoid falling for attacks such as these, use good anti-virus software and pay attention where online links actually lead. (Don't click on any links in email messages you're not expecting.) If it looks suspicious, don't click on it.
Stick to major and trusted news sites. If anyone is going to have the latest scoop, it's probably not going to be confined to an obscure and fishy-looking website.
There are no reports of royal baby scams yet, but they're sure to come. Online criminals have had months to prepare for Kate and Will's big day.
"Sadly, it's almost inevitable," British security expert Graham Cluley wrote on Twitter about royal-baby scams. "It is going to be such a huge news story, the bad guys will jump on the bandwagon."

Google's taking another big stab at the TV market with its just-announced Chromecast HDMI streaming solution, and it's naturally lined up some content partners to make that device more useful. At its event today, the company confirmed that Netflix is on board with video streaming support from its Android and iOS apps; Chromecast buyers will also get three months of Netflix for free "for a limited time" with their purchase (notably, that includes existing Netflix members). On the audio side of things, you'll also be able to take advantage of music streaming courtesy of Pandora, which is apparently coming sometime after launch according to Google's blog post. Less surprisingly, YouTube, Google Play Movies & TV, and the Play Music app will also be offering full support for the device, letting you push videos and music to your TV (and the sound system attached to it) from your mobile device of choice. Additional content partners are said to be "coming soon."

Unemployment remains a huge problem in Nigeria. Every year Nigerian universities continue to churn out thousands of new graduates with freshly minted diplomas who join a competitive job market with bleak employment prospects. If you are among the 25 percent of unemployed Nigerians or perhaps one of the approximately 45 percent of working age Nigerians who have given up hopes of finding a job in a job market that seems to be tilted in favor of the connected and returnees with shiny diplomas, questionable accents, and exotic work experiences from abroad, here are five things you should know:
Think Global
Now is not the time to begrudge the rich and fortunate who can afford to travel abroad for work and educational purposes. Just because you come from a poor or middle class socioeconomic background does not preclude you from opportunities abroad. In today?s hyper connected global landscape, what you know is more important than where you come from or your socioeconomic background. Take advantage of globalization and develop a global mindset.
A global mindset in the employment context is about developing your skills and applying them wherever they are needed around the world. For example, are you an unemployed Political Science and policy graduate who grew up in the North and who have mastered the cultural factors and dynamics that influence behavior and day to day living in the North? While a bank or oil company in Victoria Island may not necessarily value this in you, your perspective may be invaluable to an International Development agency somewhere around the world that is focused on resolving the conflict in Northern Nigeria and other African countries undergoing similar challenges as the North.
Similarly, are you fluent in Arabic? As a bilingual Nigerian, your English and Arabic skills maybe highly appreciated by a U.S. contractor in the United States or the Middle East. There are many instances where the skills we take for granted in Nigeria are actually appreciated around the world. Rather than sinking deeper into the pool of unemployment in Nigeria, broaden your horizons by thinking about how your skills may be applied beyond the shores of Nigeria. Think about teaching English in countries with emerging economies, such as Brazil and China. Most of these English teaching jobs will usually have a preference for people from the United States, the UK, Canada, and Australia; however once you can demonstrate that you know English just as well, you also have a fair shot at these jobs. Apply for fellowships and programs such as the Atlas Corps, which provides work opportunities in the United States to individuals from around the world. Take advantage of the aging populations in many countries and apply for skilled jobs in these countries. Some countries with aging populations are seeking qualified people to join their workforce and pay taxes.
Update Your Skills and Competencies
Just because you are unemployed is not a reason to set your alarm clock to 10:00am every morning. You have to do what you can to improve your chances of landing your next employment opportunity. And updating your skills set does just that. If there is any benefit to being unemployed, it is the time it allows you to do things you may otherwise not have time to do when you have a job. Now is the time to get that professional certification you have been putting off, return to school for a graduate degree or certificate program, and learn skills that will distinguish you from other job applicants.
Learn to Tell Your Story
An engaging C.V or resume and clear cover letter is the key.A common mistake most job applicants make is to underestimate the power of a good CV and cover letter. Your CV and cover letter is your ticket to landing an interview and a potential job. It also represents your brand. The secret to writing a powerful CV and cover letter that would make recruiters remember you, even after reading hundreds of other CVs and cover letters, is to think about your brand and the value it represents. Don?t just list all your past places of employment and job description or few assignments and chores you did there. Instead, write about how whatever you did added value to the organization. Remember that you don?t need to have had the fanciest title or position. It all depends on how you sell it on your CV and cover letter. When writing your CV and cover letter, establish a clear link between whatever you did and the bottom line of the business. Show your impact.
Consider an example of a secretary whose only responsibility was to pick up coffee for a physician in private practice. Although her tasks may seem menial, such a secretary can show her value on her CV by explaining how the coffee she sourced enabled the physician to stay alert and perform more than two surgeries a day. And by performing more than two surgeries a day the organization brought in X amount of money. She can also explain that by bringing in coffee every day, she enabled the physician to concentrate fully on patients, provide the best patient care, and increase patients? satisfaction. In this example, the secretary has shown how her role contributed to the bottom line.
Think Outside the 9-to-5 Box
Don?t be ashamed of unprofessional jobs. At one point or another, we have all been guilty of tying our self-esteem to our jobs. And so when we suddenly find ourselves unemployed without a traditional 9-to-5 professional job, our self-esteem plunges, and then we vigorously look for another 9-to-5 job. Our society has typically regarded bankers, doctors, lawyers, telecommunication workers, and oil company employees with a lot more respect than individuals in other professions. But here?s the deal: there is a lot of value and learning opportunities that can be gleaned from nonprofessional jobs that can help you get your next professional job. The financial rewards and respect may be minimal, but your professional growth would be enormous. For instance, by selling goods as little as recharge cards and even pure water, a person can learn highly valuable and sought-after skills such as customer service, interpersonal skills, and supply-chain management. Moreover, the experience provides good information and answers for behavioral interviews in which recruiters ask for specific life examples or situations of when you exhibited certain skills and capabilities. Again, it all depends on how well you are able to articulate these skills on your CV. and cover letter, and how you can translate the lessons learned from a nonprofessional job into a professional situation.
Volunteer and Make a Difference in Your Community
Volunteering helps to keep the mind engaged and it can be a potential differentiator between job candidates. When a recruiter is presented with two identical job candidates, the person who has volunteered and made a difference would be preferred over the person who remained idle and done nothing since being unemployed. Volunteering can also help you shake off the self-pity, shame, and laziness that unemployment sometimes forces upon people. Rather than eating Nkwobi, drinking stout, and complaining to friends about how hard it is to find a job in Nigeria, get up and start making a difference in your community. Something as little as cleaning your street can snowball into a nonprofit or nongovernmental organization. Don?t underestimate what you can achieve simply by getting started.
So there you have it. These five tips should get you moving towards your next opportunity.

The Southwest plane that skidded down the runway at LaGuardia Airport on Monday caused significant damage to the aircraft, but only 10 passengers walked away with minor injuries. NBC's Katy Tur reports.
By M. Alex Johnson, Staff Writer, NBC News
New York's LaGuardia Airport was fully reopened Tuesday after a disabled Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 skidded to a hard landing Monday evening as its front landing gear collapsed, authorities said.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said crews with cranes lifted the jet from the runway onto a flatbed truck. Officials said Tuesday morning that the runway had been reopened.
Of the 150?customers and crew?on board the flight from Nashville, Tenn., three passengers, the two pilots and three flight attendants were treated and released from the hospital, Southwest Airlines said Tuesday.
The National Transportation Safety Board said there was substantial damage to the aircraft and announced an investigation.
"The NTSB is doing what they call a preliminary investigation,? Southwest Vice President Linda Rutherford told NBC 5 of Dallas, where the airline has its headquarters. "That involves a review of the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder."
Bryan and Callista Foster were passengers on Southwest 345 when the nose gear collapsed during a landing at New York's LaGuardia Airport. Bryan Foster had is camera rolling and caught the moment when the plane hit the runway.
Rutherford said investigators were also interviewing the pilots.?
The jet came to a stop Monday on Runway 4 at 5:45 p.m. ET, said Thomas Bosco, the airport's general manager and acting aviation director for the Port Authority. Four others refused treatment, he said.
The airport, which was closed after the accident, was reopened at 7 p.m. ET, Bosco said.
There was still no explanation for why the landing gear malfunctioned. The Federal Aviation Administration said Monday night that the pilots "reported possible front landing gear issues before landing," but it gave no further details.
About a dozen emergency vehicles surrounded the Southwest plane, whose passengers evacuated by the rear chute and were taken by bus to the terminal. Bosco said none of the injuries occurred during the evacuation.
"It's a surreal scene here given what just happened in the Bay Area," Sam Brock of NBC Bay Area, who saw the incident from another plane he was on at the airport, told?NBC New York in an on-air telephone interview, referring to the crash of Asiana Flight 214 early this month at San Francisco International Airport.
Brock said the pilot of his flight told passengers that there were no serious injuries and no sign of fire or flames on the Southwest plane.
Steve Czech, who was on the runway waiting for his American Airlines flight to take off, told NBC New York that he saw the Southwest plane touch down.
"There was just this fireball going down the runway. It was unbelievable ? it was probably 300 yards from us, if that," Czech said.
"Clearly, there was no nose gear," he said. "It was just screeching down the runway, fire on both sides. There was debris kind of rolling off to the sides."

A wheelchair-bound man with no legs is celebrating after catching an 8 foot, 250-pound shark off the North Fla. coast.
The St. Augustine Record reports that Matt Sechrist, a 19-year-old student from Clay County, reeled in the lemon shark while sitting in his wheelchair on Vilano Beach.
A family friend dropped bait off the coast, then Sechrist put the brakes on his wheelchair and strapped on a fighting harness.
Friends and family members held the chair in place while Sechrist struggled to catch the shark.
After an hour, the shark tired and Sechrist reeled it in. The group took photos, revived the shark and released it into the ocean.
Sechrist starts college this week to pursue a major in human performance, so he can train other wheelchair-bound athletes.

The company is buying $1.1 billion worth of its stock from its largest investor, Third Point, and three of the company's most important directors--including Third Point's Dan Loeb--are quitting?the board.
This is big news for Yahoo! from a fundamental perspective. The three board members who are resigning, activist investor Dan Loeb, media consultant Michael Wolf, and turnaround expert Harry Wilson, have made a major contribution to Yahoo's turnaround and stock price resurrection over the past two years.
This also seems like big news from another perspective:
It seems like the very definition of insider trading.
How?
Well, sometime prior to the open of the stock market this morning, three of Yahoo's most important board members decided to resign.
And, sometime prior to the open of the stock this morning--before the board-member resignations were made public--Yahoo's largest shareholder, which knew about the resignations, dumped $1.1 billion of stock.
The information that three important board members are quitting is highly material information--information that almost any reasonable investor would want to know when considering a Yahoo trade. Trading while in possession of material non-public information, meanwhile, is insider trading.
Given that Yahoo's three most important board members just quit, it's not surprising to see Yahoo's stock down 5% this morning. It's actually surprising to me that it's not down more than that.
Third Point and Yahoo obviously knew that three of Yahoo's board members were about to quit when they agreed to the terms of the deal in which Yahoo will buy 40 million shares of its stock from Third Point.
Third Point and Yahoo, however, did not wait to agree on a price for this trade until after the news about the board member resignations had been made public.?
Third Point and Yahoo did not, for example, wait until the close of trading today, when Yahoo's stock price will presumably reflect the market's assessment of the news that Yahoo's three most important board members have just quit.
Instead, Yahoo and Third Point priced their transaction based on Yahoo's closing price on Friday--before the news about the directors quitting was made public.
So Third Point is getting the pre-resignation price for its stock, while knowing about the upcoming board member resignations. And the rest of us Joe Schmo Yahoo shareholders, who didn't know about the resignations, are now getting the post-resignation price.
Again, the definition of "insider trading" is trading while in possession of material non-public information.
It would be extremely hard to argue that the sudden and unexpected resignation of three of Yahoo's most important directors is not material non-public information.
And it would be impossible to argue that Third Point and Yahoo did not trade while in possession of this information.
So, how is this not insider trading?
I don't mean to be dense or rude here. ?And I'm also not a lawyer. So maybe there's some exception to insider trading laws that allows insider deals like this to happen.
To be clear, I'm also not objecting to big private block trades. Those happen all the time. (In most cases, though, they happen at a discount to the prevailing market price, to account for the likely impact of that amount of stock changing hands on the market price. This one, I note, did not happen at a discount.)
And, very importantly, these big private block trades also do not happen when both parties--and no one else--are in possession of?highly material non-public information, such as the resignation of three key directors.
I am sure that this deal was lawyered out the wazoo. So I'm sure there's some innocent explanation.
But until I hear that explanation, I will be scratching my head.
A source familiar with Third Point's view of this trade says that it was legal because the stock was sold to Yahoo, not the public. Yahoo was in possession of the same information as Third Point, the source says, so there was no information on one side that was not known to the other side.
And I certainly see that.
As a Yahoo shareholder, I'm a bit annoyed that Yahoo didn't insist on getting a modest discount to the trading price in exchange for buying such a big block of stock, as I would have expected in this scenario. But I'm not arguing that Yahoo got shafted by being sold stock while not being in possession of the information on the other side of the trade.
The folks I'm frustrated on behalf of are Yahoo's other shareholders, who didn't sell, and who didn't know about this material non-public information that both Yahoo and Third Point knew about when they traded at that juicy $29+ price on Friday.
A a Yahoo shareholder who was/is thinking of selling his stock, for example, I can tell you that I sure would have liked to have known on Friday afternoon that Yahoo's three most important board members were about to announce that they were quitting. That information might have made a difference to me when I was considering selling my stock (which, as it happened, I actually was doing on Friday afternoon. I didn't sell.) And I certainly feel like a bit of a sucker this morning, now that I have learned that Yahoo's smartest shareholder, Dan Loeb, unloaded $1.1 billion of his stock on Friday, while knowing what I was I blissfully clueless about all weekend.
DISCLAIMER: I am absurdly conflicted here. First, I'm a Yahoo shareholder. For better and worse, I've owned the stock since 1998. (I have been thinking of selling it recently, in part because I'm sick of having to explain that I'm a Yahoo shareholder when I write or talk about the company. It looks like Friday might have been a good time to sell.) Second, I work for Yahoo: I'm a host of a Yahoo Finance video show called Daily Ticker. Third, I have friends and acquaintances at several companies involved in this transaction and many more companies that might have been involved. Basically, I have so many conflicts and potential conflicts with respect to this story that I could spend the rest of the day describing them....

I've always liked this song. It's made of layered voice tracks all sung by Imogen Heap and backed up with some keyboard synth shenanigans. Of course, we all remember it for the bridge aka the "mmm watcha say" portion, which was apparently featured prominently in the climactic scene of The OC series finale. I wouldn't know because I never watched The OC, except that then SNL made a hilarious Digital Short spoofing The OC and prominently featuring some "mmm watcha say"s. Good stuff.

That will kill iPhone 4(S) customers.
13. Berzerk000 posted on 1
But iOS 7 needs 1 GB of RAM now because it finally supports multitasking, even Apple knows that. If they put less than that, then they are intentionally putting a drawback on their users.
11. KingKurogiii posted on 0
it would have to be more like the 5 to be able to support LTE in the "Apple Proper" way and also i think an iPhone "Lite" really messes with Apple's model of just being able to move down the last gen iPhone to the mid range category which i think worked really well for them however this could work if this ends up just being an inexpensively built iPhone 5. so then they could fill the mid range category with both this and the 5 but they'll be able to offer trade-offs for each other, price vs. quality without specs having to be thrown in. if they were the Lite would probably lose considering how cheap you can get an iPhone 5 nowadays.
12. thelegend6657 posted on 0
I think iPhone lite is 4S replacement in the mid range world
14. Berzerk000 posted on 0
I didn't like how the previous gen iPhone was their mid range model, because after 1 or 2 software updates they are severely behind in features compared to the newest generation products. It's a big middle finger to those who buy previous gen devices. If Apple can make a mid range device alongside their flagship while giving it the same software features, that would be a much better deal for people who can't buy the high end model.

A woman has died while riding a roller coaster at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, Texas. (AP Photo/The Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Ian McVea) MAGS OUT; (FORT WORTH WEEKLY, 360 WEST); INTERNET OUT
ARLINGTON, Texas ? Investigators will try to determine Saturday if a woman who died while riding a roller coaster at a Six Flags amusement park in North Texas fell from the ride dubbed the tallest steel-hybrid coaster in the world after not being properly secured by staff, as some witnesses accounts contend.
The accident happened just after 6:30 p.m. Friday at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. Park spokeswoman Sharon Parker confirmed that a woman died while riding the Texas Giant roller coaster but did not specify how she was killed. Witnesses told local media outlets that the woman fell.
"She goes up like this. Then when it drops to come down, that's when it (the safety bar) released and she just tumbled," Carmen Brown of Arlington told The Dallas Morning News. Brown said she was waiting in line to get on the ride when the accident happened.
Brown said she also witnessed the woman being strapped into the ride.
"They didn't secure her right. One of the employees from the park ? one of the ladies ? she asked her to click her more than once, and they were like, 'As long you heard it click, you're OK.' Everybody else is like, 'Click, click, click.' Hers only clicked once. Hers was the only one that went down once, and she didn't feel safe, but they let her still get on the ride."
Six Flags expressed sadness over the death and said it was temporarily closing the section of the park around the accident site. It didn't say how long the area would be closed. A message left for Parker by The Associated Press was not returned.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends during this difficult time," the park's statement said.
The Texas Giant reaches 14 stories high and has a drop of 79 degrees and a bank of 95 degrees. It can carry up to 24 riders. The ride first opened in 1990 as an all-wooden coaster but underwent a $10 million renovation in 2010 to install steel-hybrid rails before reopening in 2011.
Brown said she was next in line behind the woman and saw her being strapped into her seat next to her son.
"We heard her screaming. We were like, 'Did she just fall?'" Brown said. Continued...
Arlington police Sgt. Christopher Cook, the department spokesman, referred all questions to Parker. No other details were available.
In another amusement park accident Friday, a boat on an Ohio thrill ride accidentally rolled backward down a hill and flipped over in water when the ride malfunctioned, injuring all seven people on it. Operators stopped the Shoot the Rapids water ride after the accident, which occurred on the ride's first hill, the Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio, said.
In 1999, a 28-year-old Arkansas woman drowned and 10 other passengers were injured when a raft-like boat on the Roaring Rapids ride at Six Flags overturned in 2 to 3 feet of water about 200 feet from the end of the ride.
Six Flags Over Texas opened in 1961 as the first amusement park in the Six Flags system. It is 17 miles west of downtown Dallas.
