Microsoft has announced a definite release date for Gears of war 3 coming out for Xbox 360. It has been pushed back from the original release date in April 2011 to a September 20 2011. It was supposed to be unveiled on the talk show "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" but that can no longer happen due to the postponed date. This release date is a worldwide release date that includes places such as Japan, Australia and Europe as well as the US. Some of the maps and character models have already been shown to the general public to show what will be in the final game.

An auto corrected text message led to the death of Josef Witkowski. Niel Brook sent a text message that included the word mutter. This word was auto corrected to the word nutter which is a slang term for someone who is not mentally stable. Further texts were exchanged between the two men and it ended with Josef Witkowski going to Brook's house. When he arrived at Brook's house a knife fight took place and Josef Witkowski was killed. Brook stabbed him 104 times and was charged with murder at first but the charges were changed to manslaughter. if you ask me the auto corrected text was not at fault it was a crazy person who overreacted.

My Weekend

I had to wake up earlier than I usually do on Saturday because I had to go to a bowling tournament. I had to be at bowler city in Hackensack at 8:30 am. The tournament lasted until around noon. When I got home I fell asleep and and slept until around 5:30. When I woke up me, my mom, my aunt Jenn and my two little cousins went to Longhorns. After that i went home and played ps3 until i went to sleep. On Sunday i woke up to a call from a friend asking to hang out. I went over his house and I stayed there until around 3. After that i went home and worked on my history project watched some television and went to sleep.

Some German researchers at The Fraunhofer Institute for Secure Information Technology found a way to steal the passwords on the apple I pod in under six minutes. They abuse weaknesses in the safari browser. They have only been able to steal passwords from people who purposely jail broke(jailbreak-illegally download software to manipulate the codes in the I pod that set the guidelines to what you can do so they can do whatever they want on it) their I pods. Apple commented by saying that apple software could only be manipulated if they had the device in hand. Those same German researchers are now saying that people who haven't jail broken their I pods aren't necessarily safe. It is just more difficult to get those passwords, but it can be done.
