...tested the Storm's clickable screen last week when I met with Mike Lazaridis, president and cofounder of Research In Motion (RIM), BlackBerry's maker, in New York City - and I was impressed. You can press the screen to confirm menu choices, launch Web pages and open applications, a novel feature you won't find in other phones. After selecting, say, which e-mail message you want to read, you can open it by gently pressing on the screen - it actually sinks into the casing as you press, with a satisfying "click." The screen functions just like a mouse click...
...Storm eliminates that problem with the clickable screen. It further improves the touchscreen experience with two other features designed to separate navigation and confirmation, which, Lazaridis told TIME, is the trademark of the Storm.

Brownsville is not even a classic Prosperity congregation - it relies more on the anointing of its pastors than on Scriptural promises of God. But the believer's note to his minister illustrates how magical thinking can prevail even after the mortgage blade has dropped. "Last Sunday," it read, "You said if anyone needed a miracle to come up. So I did. I was receiving foreclosure papers, so I asked you to anoint a picture of my home...
...modest and reserved. Though Dennings was much more talkative than her costar, who gave little more than one-line answers. It’s easy to assume that Cera and his characters are one and the same—and he didn’t offer up much to confirm or deny that suspicion. When asked about the differences between his own experience as a child actor and the experiences of the regular teenagers he portrays, Cera said, “Well, the characters are totally different. None of the characters that I’ve ever played were child...
