Heraclitus 

emphasized the unstoppable movement of nature. One cannot step in the same river twice; both the river and the self have changed since the first time. Nevertheless, he saw that change did not mean sheer chaos. Hence he found in the universe a rationality which is the Logos.

Plato 

believed that the world was capable of being known through a human rationality that corresponds to or participates in the rationality of the universe,i.e. The Logos is the Sum of Human Rationality The world soul (Anima mundi) is an intrinsic connection between all living things on the planet forming the Logos.

Stoics 

equates the Logos with God, so God is the Sum of Human Rationality.The soul of the universe, which is composed of many seminal logoi that are contained in the universal logos

Plotinus

Logos is the principle of meditation, the interrelationship between the Hypostases (Soul, Spirit (nous) and the 'One

Philo

Represented the Logos as the Hebrew word of God, as colored by the later idea of the divine Wisdom which is the Hand which god uses to intervene in the physcial world and results in all what is happening, so it is the relation between God and Man,being both the agent of creation and the agent through which the human mind can apprehend and comprehend God including Nature and Angels but His Problem was "Is the Logos Seperate from God or a Part of God??"

Christianity

The Logos is Christ

You do not need to root or unroot the device to update the firmware to update with a stock image
Firmware version: I9100XXKI3.
XX = Europe.
K = 2011.
I = September.
3 = Version.

Pda is the basic firmware, Phone is the modem responsible for wifi/2g/3g, csc is the country specific code - language files/apps etc. You shouldn't consider these as separate, they all combine to make a single firmware (which will have the pda code) ,Kernel is a (small) part of PDA. So flash PDA replaces the kernel. But you can flash kernel separately without changing the other parts of PDA.


Boot-loader: handles booting an OS from ROM,Motorola and HTC especially have been using signed bootloaders that are permanently locked. This means that only the company is able to send updates to the phone, and there is no way for the Android modding community to do so unless they find a way around these measures.


Rooting: A new Android phone runs everything as an unprivileged user to avoid non-tech-savvy users messing it up. Rooting enables access to the superuser mode. You gain full control over the phone, and can optimise settings to boost battery life, etc, but the biggest advantage is that you can add customised ROMs (which is called “flashing”) but adding stock ROM doesn't require rooting. It even enables you to control, at the baseband level, your phone’s telecom components.so you can install special apps which uses root privilege like Market Enabler

ADB: The Android Debug Bridge (ADB) provides an interface/command-line access to the OS from your PC. It’s bundled with the standard SDK package.

Flash: Flashing is writing something over ROM, derived from the ancient way of flashing chips by fusing components on the chip.

1. Download the chosen ROM zip file and transfer it to the SD card.
2. Reboot the mobile and enter recovery mode.
3. Back up current ROM status, software and data. This is the most important thing to do, as you may end up bricking your phone without it — and remember, there is no recovery from bricking! Nandroid recovery is the name of the recovery file.
4. Now clear the factory settings and other data, and the Dalvik cache as well.
5. Next, install the new ROM from the zip file on the SD card.
6. Reboot, and your job is done.

Nandroid or Nandroid Backup: Much like we back up OS images on PCs, Nandroid backs up an image of the phone’s current state, which can be used in case of errors like Boot Loop or ROM update failure.

Custom Recovery Program: Custom Recovery mode is a command-line interface, available before your current ROM is booted.it is equivalent to the BIOS of your computer. It provides access to basic low-level maintenance and recovery tasks. However, to gain full control over your Android phone, you need to wipe the stock recovery image, and flash a new recovery image to gain full control of your device’s administration.Examples of custom recoveries include: Amon Ra Recovery, ClockworkMod Recovery, etc.
RomManager is a root app which allows you to boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery Mod and install roms automatically

Last days i made a tech news about a new dongle jb2 that can play 3.60+ ps3 game, in fact, this dongle need to work with patched (by the team who created the dongle jb2), burned bluray game to allow games to work on ps3. So this is not really what people expect.
A BIG rumor about a Custom firmware 3.72 float around here… A senior member of ps3news.com claim he have a cfw3.72 in development with a video proof. This video is controversed by everybody claiming it’s a fake… We are all waiting news from the guy of ps3news.com
Wait and see… I’ll make TechNews post if a legit CFW is released… Again, sorry for my bad english, this is not my first language and i try to make it clear as possible.

Situation: an English group releases a new movie ( DVDRip )
Take into consideration:
- In this example the supplier didn’t first drive home with the copy, but apparently uploaded from work, which is highly unlikely. But how long does it take him to get home in the example? 5 hours? 2? I therefor didn’t take it into consideration.
- There was no delay. Noone was busy, no work, no school, everything started right away.
Step 1. 0 hour.
A ‘supplier’ gets access to a new movie, he quickly ‘!dupe’ checks a IRC bot run by a friend of the group he works for. In less than a second, this irc bot searches for him the entire scene history of 4.5 million releases!
Step 2. 10 seconds.
He confirms the movie is not yet released, so he puts the disk into his pc and copies it’s contents to his hard disk. Once that is done, he starts the ssl upload to the private FTP of his group.
Step 3. 15 minutes.
The upload is done.
The group is notified in their private IRC channel either by a automated script connected to their ftp or the supplier himself.
A second dupe check is done to make sure it’s still not released yet, and the ‘ripper’ gets alarted; the race in on!
Step 4. 20 minutes.
The ripper FXPs/downloads the release to his ripbox, does a quick check and starts the encode.
Step 5.
The wait. It takes time to encode and you know your competitors could release it any moment if you’re in bad luck.
Step 6. 2 hours and 50 minutes.
The encode is done.
Sometimes the ripper checks for common problems like bad colors, errors in the sound, ghosting and other worries, but much more often due to the ‘rush’ to be first, he takes a 10 second peek and off it goes. After all, in the scene there is an advanced system to report and fix problems, something non-sceners do not benefit from, who usually remain stuck with the releases that had problems.
Now the encode is done, the ripper loads the file in the group’s auto-packer, which automaticly grabs the information on the movie from IMDB and automatically writes the NFO file while the movie gets packed. A few seconds later and it’s done.
Step 7. 2 hours, 50 minutes and a few seconds.
The movie gets automaticly FXP’d to one of the group’s ‘affils’ (affiliate sites), and from there FXP’d to the other affils. Since topsites generally aren’t any slower than several hundred Mb/s shared with only a few dozen others, and more often than not several Gbit/s, this aswell takes only a matter of seconds.
Step 8. 2 hours, 50 minutes and a few more seconds.
Final dupe check before ‘pre’, while watching the live announces of all and every new release in the scene, one of the members of the group writes the command to release, immediatly their auto-bot tells all the sites they are active in the release is now official (aka ‘pre’)!
Step 9. 2 hours, 51 minutes (What you expected me to write? ‘a few more, more seconds’? :p)
Tense? Now the madness really starts.
Right when the command is given, the bots on affil topsites send the command to all addpre channels on all nuke nets, dozens of bots add the release to their database, and within less than an second, the release is announced all over the scene!
At the same time, dozens of ‘racers’ spread the release to all topsites in the scene that want it at roaring speed, within 3 minutes the release is all over the scene!
Competing groups that lost the race by an inch immediatly grab the release to check it for errors to ‘proper’ it.
Step 10. 2 hours, 54 minutes
Final step for the group; they now grab their own release and check it thoroughly for errors. They do now, after it is released, because they already won ‘the race’ which matters greatly in the highly competitive environment of the scene. They also check now, because if they find problems, they can fix them themselves instead of having a other group release a PROPER on them.
Step 10. 2 hours, 55 minutes
Several of these topsites [1] are used by ‘leakers’ to bring the releases to you; they get send to their own private ftp and from there usually send to a seedbox on a private tracker.
Step 11. 3 hours, 10 minutes
Most private trackers now have the file.
Step 11. 3 hours, 20 minutes
Taken from private trackers like these, it starts to appear on Warez Forums and Usenet.
Also by now, the groups have likely checked the release for errors, and if there any problems, you might be stuck with a bad release if you never found out something was wrong untill you watch it
Step 12. 3 hours, 40 minutes
It starts to appear on public trackers.
Step 13. 4:30-5 hours
It starts to appear on classic P2P.
[1] Small sidenote: more often than not the owner of the FTP does not know of this behavior by one of it’s members, if they did most would stop it.
