Scoreboard proposal at Fenway Park goes painfully wrong Posted: 01 May 2017 10:14 AM PDT Scoreboard proposals are a pretty risky move...and they don't always pay off. One Red Sox fan learned that lesson the hard way on Sunday. He popped the big question on the scoreboard at Fenway Park, but he didn't exactly get the response he was hoping for. Of course his humiliation, like his proposal, was exceedingly public. People at the game took to Twitter immediately to talk about the awkwardness. The scoreboard proposal at Fenway may have just gone awry. There was no hug, the camera cut away and the crowd groaned. — Pete Abraham (@PeteAbe) May 1, 2017 Holy hell somebody just proposed to their girlfriend at Fenway and I think they said no. — Ty Anderson (@_TyAnderson) May 1, 2017 A video board proposal just happened at Fenway...and she said no... — Corey Thiele (@coreythiele) May 1, 2017 Someone even managed to capture a video of the moments following the proposal, in which she says the couple in question are fighting. Ouch. This guy just proposed at Fenway on camera. She said no. Now they are arguing. That poor camera man pic.twitter.com/N9m8nOIXKH — Kim (@kimba7391) May 1, 2017 Of course we don't know for sure that she didn't eventually say yes, but either way she was well within her rights to not be thrilled with this over-the-top gesture. And for some, the non-storybook ending was a welcome change from the usually sappy moments. Finally. Someone said no to a proposal on the Jumbotron at fenway. Love it. #StopProposingAtSportingEvents — Tom Giles (@TomGilesCSN) May 1, 2017 It's impossible to know the exact circumstances that led to this mess, but it sure seems like this dude should have made extra sure his girlfriend was on the same page re: lifelong commitment before popping the question in a stadium full of people.

Insider says Apple’s first new iOS product line in years will be unveiled at WWDC Posted: 01 May 2017 08:47 AM PDT In just a matter of days, a second trustworthy source has mentioned the Apple's unnamed Amazon Echo competitor. And this time around we have a purported launch date for the gadget, which will mark Apple's first new iOS-powered product line since the Apple Watch.
KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said in a note to investors seen by 9to5Mac that Apple will launch a "Siri Speaker" product at WWDC 2017 un June. Kuo, who has an accurate track record when predicting Apple's plans, says there's a more than 50% chance of Apple announcing the device at its developers conference next month. The product should then hit stores in the second half of the year, though it's unclear how much it will cost. Kuo calls the unbranded device "Apple's first home AI product," saying that it'll feature "excellent" sound, packing in seven tweeters and a subwoofer. The device will be sold as a more premium option compared to the Amazon Echo. A few days ago, Apple leaker Sonny Dickson said that Apple's Siri speaker design is currently being finalized. He later added that the device might feature some form of Beats technology and run a version of iOS. https://twitter.com/SonnyDickson/status/857584905982693379 Dickson further explained to Mashable that the gadget will feature a design similar to Apple's Mac Pro, but also to UE Boom's mesh speaker. Finally, he noted that it'll have controls in a concave area on top of the speaker. This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
This app is about to become every iPhone user’s new addiction Posted: 01 May 2017 08:27 AM PDT There's something about polls that are endlessly fascinating to humans. It doesn't make much sense, but we as a species really, really like to record our feelings, opinions, and stances in every possible way, even if it's something that really doesn't have any actual meaning whatsoever. Treeo, a new app that bills itself as "addictive emoji voting" squeezes that little part of our brains until it practically bursts, and there's a good chance you could lose some serious time As the name implies, the core mechanic of Treeo is a three-option polling system that forces you to decide how you feel about the specific options. It could be as simple as choosing which of three really awesome looking vacation destinations fits your taste the best, or deciding how you feel about three different outfits. But rather than just pick your favorite, you have to choose between the three emoji options — typically ranging from great, which might be a thumbs-up emoji, to awful, like a poop emoji, along with a third option somewhere in between. You drag the circular image of the choices to the emoji that matches, according to you, and your vote is then logged. Immediately after you vote, you get to see a breakdown of exactly how everyone else voted, with percentages showing how close you were to the average or how completely absurd your opinion actually is. It's extremely easy to grasp, and there's really no barrier to entry or learning curve, you just open the app, vote, and view results. But the real fun of Treeo is less about your own voting habits and more about seeing how your friends have voted. On the post-voting results screen you can scroll down to see how other people you've connected with on the app also voted, which really makes the whole exercise feel very, very personal. Finding out which guy (or gal) celebrity your friends find the most attractive, their favorite obscure 80s band, or what their dream car is can be a pretty enlightening experience, and the option to comment on friends' votes makes it a much more social experience than you'd initially expect. Of course, if you really want to embrace Treeo's most addictive feature, you can create your own polls, where you pick a category, choose the options, and assign the emojis you want the voters to use. It's very simple and you can whip up a poll in a matter of seconds. It's one of the app's best features, but it's also where there could be potential for abuse — think "hot or not" mixed with a hefty helping of adolescent bullying, for example. It's not a deal-breaker, but it's something Treeo's creators would do well to monitor to ensure things don't go off the rails. Treeo is free to download, and is live right now on the App Store.

France's Macron pays tribute to Moroccan drowned after 1995 Le Pen rally Posted: 01 May 2017 07:22 AM PDT By Michel Rose PARIS (Reuters) - French presidential frontrunner Emmanuel Macron on Monday paid homage to a young Moroccan man who drowned in the Seine 22 years ago after being pushed into the river by skinheads on the fringes of the National Front's traditional May Day rally. In an anniversary gesture clearly aimed at painting the National Front (FN) as extremist a week before he faces its candidate Marine Le Pen in a run-off vote for the presidency, Macron observed a minute's silence on the riverbank. "We must never forget what happened," Macron told reporters at the site, a few steps away from the Louvre museum, where he laid a wreath of white flowers in front of a plaque in memory of the victim, Brahim Bouarram.

Asian nations pulled into China's orbit as Trump puts America first Posted: 01 May 2017 07:05 AM PDT By Martin Petty and Manuel Mogato MANILA (Reuters) - Across Asia, more and more countries are being pulled into Beijing's orbit, with the timid stance adopted by Southeast Asian nations on the South China Sea at a weekend summit a clear sign this fundamental geostrategic shift is gathering momentum. U.S. President Donald Trump's flurry of calls at the weekend to the leaders of the Philippines, Thailand and Singapore might cheer those who fear his predecessor Barack Obama's "pivot" to Asia has been abandoned in favor of an "America First" agenda.
