A Toddler might drop a bomb in her diaper, but not the kind that would blow a plane out of the sky. So why was an 18-month-old girl named Riyanna booted from Jet Blue flight 510 in Ft. Lauderdale on Tuesday Shortly after Riyanna and her parents had boarded the plane, an airline employee told them that they would need to exit because TSA agents w stanley romania ould like to speak with them. Puzzled, they asked why. Then came the kicker: little Riyanna had been flagged as no-fly. The baffled family disembarked and met TSA agents in the terminal. After about a half hour of embarrassing, invasive questioning, right out in the open, they were told they could re-board, without apology. But they were utterly humiliated, so they left the airport. Now, rightly, they want to know why this fiasco happened. The parents, who have asked not to be identified for fear of backlash, believe they were targeted because of their Middle Eastern origins, and because Riyanna mother wears a hijab.

They obsess around creating experiences, not just introducing new features whether or not those experiences always work is a whole other story . Maybe they are just trying to entice people over to the iPhone 4S, but either way, it proves that Siri can ;t fully function on every device. [iFixit via TUAW] AppleiPhoneiPhone 4SSiri
