No prob. Post again if you need any help. I get e-mails for replies. If you can't find your old cube, I recommend this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ...

I'm a mild enthusiast myself (fastest is about a minute). I keep one at my desk. I'm a big fan of the stickerless design and it's very slick out of the box. A little silicone oil lubricant (RC shock oil, 30wt) will make it REAL fast.

The corner rotation is really simple. R-, B-, R+, B+

You'll have to do that sequence 2x or 4x to get the orientation right. Then rotate the top face until you have a different corner that needs fixing in the "bottom right" corner (when looking at the top face). It's easy to forget the last B+ when learning (at least I did). And only rotate the top face, not the whole cube in your hands to get to the next corner. This move looks like it scrambles the cube, and then magically brings it back when on your last move. It's my favorite part, as it's some sort of "reveal" to an audience when it happens.

I learned this method too. It's the same one written on the booklet that came with my first cube. I think this is still the traditional/simplest method. When doing the final side (3rd layer), you first get the "cross" (center pieces in the correct orientation, not location). Then you go about rotating those centers, if I'm guessing right, the part you're stuck on. I flip my cube "up side down" so the third layer is on the top. These are the moves to switch the front center and right center pieces: U, R, U, Ri, U, R, U, U, Ri.... U signifies moving the "Upper" Face clockwise (when looking at it), R, is the "Right" Face, and Ri is the right face, but counter clockwise. All these are 90 degree turns. Not sure if this helps, and you'll still need to rotate the corners for position and then for orientation after this.

If this somewhat seems familiar, and it doesn't quite solve your problem, let me know, I can probably do a short video of this sequence and post it later tonight.

Came here to post that. Curtis Youngblood is really quite amazing. Kinda surprised that the posted video is of what seems to be a prototype to the Stingray 500, which has been available for a little while now: http://curtisyoungblood.com/V2...

Note that the wii sensor bar is only infrared LEDs. The camera is in the wii remote itself. It is also shielded by a infrared filter, so not much visible light makes it in there. Footage would be nearly useless as the remotes are generally pointed at the TV or flailing about.

In Europe, the card machines are portable and wireless. You never hand your card over, they bring the machine to you.

They sold the set-top box division for 2 Billion pretty early on, so, the patents are worth ~7B.

The MotoX already has this feature available. "Trusted Devices" http://www.androidcentral.com/trusted-bluetooth-devices-must-have-every-smartphone-going-forward ... but you have to have a bluetooth device on your wrist, preferably a BT 4.0 (low energy) device, like the Pebble Smartwatch.
