Excitement builds among gadget fans as Apple sends out invites to an event in California, thought to be the launch of iPhone 5S.

Apple has sent out invites featuring colourful polka dots

Apple is expected to launch its latest iPhone within days, after invites to an event at its American HQ were sent out.

It is believed the technology giant will unveil the iPhone 5S at an event in Cupertino, California on September 10.
The emailed invitation had a picture of the Apple logo surrounded by multi-coloured polka dots and the sentence: "This should brighten everyone's day."
The invite fuelled speculation that the latest generation of the smartphone would come in colours others than the trademark black and white.
The 5S will feature a fingerprint sensor for enhanced security along with a 12 or 13-megapixel camera, according to reports.
But there is also speculation that a second, cheaper version of the iPhone will be unveiled this year called the iPhone 5C, and it could be this device that is available in a range of colours.

The current iPhone model comes in just black and white

Analysts say the company needs a cheaper phone to encourage growth in markets like China and India, and to counter Samsung's wide range of devices at varying prices.
Apple previously announced it is introducing a new operating system - iOS7 - described by chief executive Tim Cook as "the biggest change to iOS since the introduction of the iPhone".
The new software has been designed to make the iPhone appear bigger, with features crafted to take advantage of the entire screen.
Text is said to appear sharper, while a "control centre" on the phone allows users to adjust settings with just one swipe from the bottom of the screen.
This gives instant access to functions such as airplane mode, wi-fi, Bluetooth or Do Not Disturb, and enables users to quickly pause or play a song, jump to the next track and stream music.
A "notification centre" will now be available from the "lock" screen so users can view updates with a simple swipe.

 Will you be buying the new iPhone and what is your opinion on the new features?

Rapist Discovers His Victim Had HIV

You know what they say about Karma been a bitch? In the news today, a young man who raped a woman  he knows has the deadly virus HIV. He is now awaiting results to know if he has contact the deadly disease. 

Full story is below.

Richard Thomas will find out on Friday whether he has contracted the incurable disease from the woman he attacked.

The 27-year-old knew the woman he raped, the court heard

A jailed rapist will discover this week whether he contracted HIV from his victim.

Richard Thomas, 27, collapsed when police informed him about his victim's medical status and is still waiting to hear if he has contracted the virus.
Thomas knew the woman and was aware that she has another illness but had not known about the HIV.
He was shocked when he was told and asked to be taken to hospital, Liverpool Crown Court heard.
He had let himself into her home in Leigh, Greater Manchester, uninvited in the middle of the night and she awoke to find him raping her from behind.

"She froze and no words were exchanged. He pulled up his shorts and left," said Harry Pepper, prosecuting.
"He was arrested and interviewed and said he had been drinking heavily, taken cocaine and ecstasy and could not recall the incident," he added.
His barrister, Virginia Hayton, said that he still cannot recall the attack but when told about it he said that the woman "would not lie, she tells the truth. If she says I have done it, I have done it."
Jailing Thomas for five years and four months, Judge Mark Brown said he had committed "this dreadful offence" while she lay asleep, having taken a sleeping tablet, and left her distressed and anxious.
He ordered him to sign the Sex Offenders Register for life.
Thomas, of Sandringham Drive, Leigh, pleaded guilty to raping the woman on July 20 this year.
Miss Hayton said that Thomas, who has previous convictions but none for sexual offences, "is remorseful and cannot understand why he did it and it is troubling him."
She said that he will not find out the result of his HIV test until Friday and has had the worry of the outcome hanging over him.

"It is his own fault, if he had not committed this offence he would not have placed himself in this position."
She said that he started using cannabis at the age of nine and was drinking heavily at the age of 11. He became addicted to ecstasy and cocaine at 13 and was put in care the following year.
He has been trying to contact his family but they want nothing to do with him, she said, and he will now be away from his partner and their young daughter, as well as his two other older daughters from previous relationships.
