How golf helped start ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
Jason Sobel explains the history of the Ice Bucket Challenge. Watch Morning Drive on Golf Channel.So you mention about Tiger and Rory collaborating on their ice bucket challenges. This is something that really is now making a significant impact with respect to ALS research. The origins, there are some vagaries to this, but you have been studying this and researching this. What are they? Well the ice bucket challenge started months and months ago. And really it's been around for a long time but, the ALS component, the charitable component of it can be traced back to a mini tour golfer. A guy named Chris Kennedy, who actually leads the West Florida golf tour on the money list this year. He's won three times already. And back on July 14th, just over a month ago, and just shows. How much this has spread. He took the ice bucket challenge, he pledged 100 dollars to ALS, which his wife's cousin's husband Anthony Senertia up here in Pelam New York, is suffering from, he's had ALS for about 11 years now. He's doing well with it, but obviously it's a very difficult disease. And one of the people that Chris Kennedy. Called out for his ALS Ice Bucket Challenge was Anthony's wife, his wife's cousin Jeanette Senerchia. She took the ice bucket challenge and it spread like wildfire in the community of Pelham, New York. It reached some people within the ALS community whothis morning, your boss, here at Golf Channel, challenged you to the ice bucket challenge. Are you up to the challenge, like, right now? Right now? Well, it does appear that I have a bucket filled with water and ice and so Jay, my former friend, still my boss and editor, he's still my friend even though he's called me out, he has given me the ice bucket challenge. I accept Jay, I am going to do it right now. Here we go, Gary. That's cold. Gary, first of all,

Bearing Witness to History

How did you witness history on September 11th?
Got to work around 8:15 am, put some coffee up and then toasted an English muffin. Back at my desk (We were on the 19th floor of 55 Broad Street, the back of our office had a great view of the towers from about a block away) at about 8:36 I heard what sounded like a large thunderclap. I thought to myself that it's beautiful outside when I came in, where did the thunder come from. I looked out my office window, which was on the opposite side of our building not facing the towers, and I saw what looked like ash and burning papers flying through the air along with a lot of smoke. I turned on my computer to Excite.com and it said that a plane had just struck the trade center. I yelled it out in the middle of our office and no one believed me. So I ran to the back of our office where we had a door that led out to a balcony where folks smoked when the wanted to, it had a great close up view of both towers. When I open the door a lot of smoke and debris was in the air and when it cleared for a second I saw all the flames. I immediately tried to close the door but people in the office came to the back because they smelled all the smoke. We all went on the balcony and watched what was unfolding. Me and a few of the guys were discussing that it must have been a private plane and that since it was restricted air space to begin with, the pilot must have had a heart attack or something. We were watching as people began jumping out of the building, we saw a couple holding hands plunge 75 or so stories to their end. It was like it wasn't really happening, like a surreal movie. All of a sudden we began to hear what sounded like a freight train going over our building. It looked more like a missile until the last second when the plane banked on its side and we saw the two wings as it plunged right into the 2nd tower. The building swayed on impact and we felt the heat and the blast shock like it was a slap in the face. At that point everyone knew it was a terrorist attack. A few of us knew it was Bin Laden because we always talked about all the crap he did to us like the USS Cole and the embassies in Africa. We knew a TV news crew assassinated the leader of the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan with a bomb in the camera the day before. It was the prelude to this offensive attack. After standing frozen solid in disbelief at was unfolding in front of us for what felt like eternity, but really only a minute, we ran to our phones to call loved ones and the phones were dead. The Verizon infrastructure was located in the WTC. We then tried our cell phones. Some were lucky to get through; others like me had a hard time. (I ditched Omnipoint after that) We turned on the radio and heard that there were 7-10 planes still unaccounted for, and then one hit the Pentagon, then we heard of the one smashing into a field in Shanksville Pa. While this is going on a close friend of mine reached our office and was covered head to toe in blood. She looked as if she dipped herself in a blood pool. Her hair was matted in it. She was crying hysterically and shaking. I was a Paramedic in the Army, so I went to her and checked her for any wounds, she was totally uninjured... not a scratch... I asked her what had happened and she told me she just came out of 5WTC (she took the PATH train to work and it lets out under the WTC) and was crossing the street when the first plane struck, she saw all the falling debris coming down and ran to a nearby men's clothing store, Brooks Brothers. A lady who was running just behind her was hit with falling glass and was cut in half just a foot or so from my friend. The blood belonged to that lady. While I was talking to her the first building began to fall. Our building shook violently like an earthquake, tiles came falling down from the ceiling and lights flickered and glass doors smashed. We didn't know if that building was falling on ours, thank God for us, it just imploded and collapsed straight down on its axis. A half hour later it was a repeat as the 2nd building fell. It was at that point we knew that there must have been unprecedented carnage there. We thought at least 20-30 thousand dead. Thankfully we were wrong and not for the heroism of our fire fighters and policemen and emergency services it would have been a whole lot worse. After that we heard an announcement on the building PA that they were evacuating the building to the basement. Some went, a few friends and me refused. We had water, food, telephones here, it is nothing but a trap down there I said. If the building fell, being under it wouldn't help much anyway. At around 11:45 me and a friend Peter Mule who was a Sr. Account Manager with RCG decided we were going to get out of there and make our way home. We took towels and soaked them and made our way down 19 flights to the lobby and tried to go out the front way. A police officer ordered us to get back in the building. We then went out the service entrance and the coast was clear except that it was like nuclear winter. It was like a dust storm in the middle of the Sahara but the dust was a grayish pink with burning embers. Walking in it was like trying to walk through 6-8 inches of snow... As we made it to Water Street we can see cars, buses, trucks, with there doors open, engines still running and abandoned. There was a city bus lying on its side, which must have turned over after jumping a curb. At that point I saw a lady walking aimlessly saying that we are all breathing in the remains of the dead. (I said, that's more info than I need to know at this point, it was sickening) It was like a mass refugee exodus to and over the Brooklyn Bridge. (I had a co-worker who actually jumped into the east river andtried to swin across to Brooklyn, was picked up by a passing ferryboat)) As we walked across the bridge we saw 2 fighter jets coming from afar aimed right at the Bridge, from a distance we couldn't tell who's they were. It was obvious quickly that they were ours. I got over the bridge and walked through the courts area to a neighborhood, which is considered an Arab neighborhood. The Arabs were literally dancing in the streets, cars with flags were streaming down Atlantic and 4th Avenues yelling "Death to America" and lots of other crap. Women were clapping and making strange sounds with their mouths in the streets... There was a huge police presence but they just stood there with an anger you couldn't believe on their faces. They wanted to shoot them. You could see it in their eyes. I had ducked into a pizzeria to hide while my brother made his way there by car to pick me up. The subways were evacuated and not running. I lost 17 friends, some cops and firemen, some former colleagues, and my doctor's son. I went to 5-6 funeral/memorial services but couldn't do any more. It was just too excruciating. The office opened the following Monday. The air downtown was a putrid mix of burning plastic/fiberglass and rubber and the stench of death. I had a bad cough from the moment I got off the M-train Broad Street subway stop until I reached home every night for the first 3 months. It will only happen again if we again have an administration that believes that appeasement is the best form of diplomacy. I don't believe war is either. What a ridiculous world we are bringing up our children in.
Has your life changed because of September 11, 2001?
I was always very cognizant of my surroundings but now I live by the saying... "Constant Vigilance" As citizens we have to partner with our protective services in making sure that terrorist attacks never happen again on American soil. There will always be some who hate the American way of life so to say that the war on terror will be unconditionally won like say WW2 is very naive. I just hope the threat of terrorism subsides so my children will never have to face a day like September 11th 2001 in their lifetime.
What do you think should be remembered about September 11th?
I think what should be remembered is the the firemen and policemen who raced into those buildings while others were racing out. The supreme sacrifice they made to help to save thousands of lives should be forever remembered. Also, those who fought with the hijackers about flight 93 which fell in a field in Shanksville PA so that thousands today could live.
Did you fly an American flag after the events of September 11th?
I always had the American Flag somewhere... A small one on my desk. The one I proudly display on Veterans Day and July 4th every year. I've been all over the world, to many countries capitals and seeing their flags flapping in the breeze but none of them are as beautiful as the stars and stripes. I may travel on vacations throughout the world and appreciate and enjoy other countries cultures but when I get into Kennedy Airport and go through customs and the inspector asks me "what would you like to declare", I always say with a smile.. "It's great to be home"... May God continue to Bless America and our men and women in uniform around the globe defending the freedoms we enjoy today.

Goodwill Manasota is putting 177 area seniors back in the workforce while serving the needs of community employers at the same time.
"Older Americans want and need to remain in the workplace past traditional retirement age," said Bob Rosinsky, president and CEO of Goodwill Manasota. "Those lacking jobs face a particularly tough time finding new positions."
He cites a number of factors, including the economic downturn, disappearing retirement funds and more people living longer and enjoying healthier lives.
"More senior citizens can and want to work these days," says Rosinsky. "But there are fewer jobs available."
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate for people ages 55 years and older has increased sharply since the beginning of the recession in 2007. By 2010, workers who are 55 years and older experienced an average duration of joblessness of 35.5 weeks before they found gainful employment.
"That's not just an empty statistic," says Rosinsky. "At Goodwill Manasota, more than 23 percent of our employees are over the age of 55 (177 employees out of 759). Our two oldest employees are 93 and 83. And the Centergate Bookstore on Bee Ridge Road has the highest number of team members over 70 years old."
There are a number of senior success stories at Goodwill Manasota -- and they all have names. Dick Morgan, 93, has worked for Goodwill for more than 38 years. He started out as a store manager and worked his way up to vice president. Today, Morgan is Goodwill Manasota's image consultant, a role he gladly performs when he travels to all 44 Goodwill Manasota locations to inspect them.
"I love Goodwill," said Morgan. "And I will be here for as long they will have me."
A mixed-age approach works well at Goodwill Manasota but it's not standard operating procedure in America's workforce.
"We need a thoughtfully conceived strategy supported by dialogue, research and the willingness to look at older workers in new ways," Rosinsky said. "Seniors want to give more. If we work together, we can make it happen."

Nurturing Youth Athlete Development: Training Parents to Develop Effective, Healthy Goals
Darcy Strouse, BelieveinMe Sports, LLC, USA
Theme: Youth sport
Program ID: LEC-03A
Presentation: October 2, 2013 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Room: Oak Alley
Parents can play an important role – both positive and negative – in youth participation and achievement in sport (Gould, Lauer, Rolo, Jannes, & Sie-Pennisi, 2006; Horn & Horn, 2007). And, this role may affect the impact of the youth sport experience on lifelong development, both mentally and physically (Brustad & Partridge, 2002; Frederick & Eccles, 2003). One area that parents can help develop is the motivational climate for the athlete (Duda & Treasure, 2006; O'Rourke, Smith, Smoll, & Cumming, 2012). Goal setting can be a key component of the motivational climate; however, to promote healthy mental and physical development inside and outside the sports arena, the goals must be realistic and developmentally appropriate. The purpose of this presentation is to share the experiences of delivering goal setting training to parents in a workshop setting. The "parental support" workshop was designed to enhance the type of motivational support, both short term and long term that parents of youth distance runners provide to their athletes. Parents were provided with didactic and interactive training materials on sport-specific and developmentally appropriate goal setting. In addition to the discussion of workshop methods, facilitators, and barriers, a key focus of the presentation will be the discussion of issues and implications concerned with delivering goal setting techniques to parents, including the role of the parent in providing a healthy motivational setting for the youth athlete and the development of overall, long-term well-being.

Utah Jazz (3-4) @ Toronto Raptors (1-5)
Full #UTAatTOR Game Stream -- Raptors HQ -- Jazz vs Raptors coverage
No Kyle Lowry, but yes Mo Williams. Doesn't mean we get the automatic win. After all, these guys beat us at home last year. Still gotta play the game. A game that, hopefully, we still win.
Probable Starters:
I'd love to see Al Jefferson stay hot, but I don't know if he can do it. It would be unfair to expect him to play like Karl Malone every game.

They're here because they are:
Influential to or have been influenced by Progressive Rock
Considered to have facilitated the development of Progressive Rock in their locale
Considered to reflect some/many of the stylistic elements and the erstwhile zeitgeist from which Progressive Rock emerged.
These are of course very broad parameters as this isn't an exact science but it's all there in the published definition on PA which I think ain't bad. No-one pretends that any of the artists in Prog Related are Prog. They're not. They're related to Prog.
By way of contrast Crossover Prog artists are deemed 100% Prog but their music contains elements we would ordinarily expect to find in more mainstream pop/rock idioms e.g. shorter more concise song structures, classical, jazz and folk affectations, a greater focus on repeated melodic hooks etc. They don't crossover into Prog, they crossover from Prog. Similarly, a very useful definition is provided on PA which should be of particular value to Prog Reviewers.

He was very progressive in his theatrical stage act. That being a desperate craft he strongly developed to be combined with his compositions. I saw him in "The Hunger" and it made me think about the many roles he took on during live performances.. Originally influenced by Syd Barrett' s music , his hair style. the makeup, expanded Bowie' s mind into doing unorthodox things. I can't imagine the suggestions that Bowie and Visconti made to each other during those early , so praised recording sessions. Apart from Bowie talents, we had Mick Ronson who was a fine and perfectly skilled arranger. Arranging the strings for "Life On Mars" as such proved that his work could easily be compared to the string/horn arrangements of Procol Harums Grand Hotel. Think about it. All those progressive or now defined Proto ..elements existed in Bowie' s music. In 71' he performed at Glastonbury Fayre . ...alone with an acoustic. He was a fine singer songwriter and if you dismiss his harder Rock songs from the early albums and focus mainly on his melancholy pieces, it is evident that he was influenced by a more progressive English writing style which was basically his environment.

As allmost every other artists born from the 70's scene, they was inspired by prog because at the time prog was huge. If you would ask Bowie "do you consider yourself as part of the progressive rock movement", im sure he would laugh himself to death.
He fits perfect in prog related.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Scores of local motorcyclists are revving up their engines for the children of St. Jude.
Two hundred motorcycle riders are motoring to Memphis as part of the 'St. Jude Rides: Peoria to Memphis' event.
Thursday morning, the riders departed from Walter Brothers Harley-Davidson in Peoria.
It is the 7th year for the ride, which has raised more than $1.8 million.
Event organizer Mike McCoy said it is a thrill to see the event grow each year.
"This is gratifying for all the hard work that everybody puts into it, because you know as we see the success rates go up and the new building going up at St. Jude at tower two and the new rec center that's going up down, there that's going to allow new doctors and doctors from all over the world to come in for research is really a huge thing," McCoy said.
The St. Jude Memphis to Peoria riders will arrive back in Peoria on Saturday.
The hope to beat last year's fundraising total of $531,000.

A tour-friendly set that's lightweight and durable.
This Mapex 5-Piece Standard-Sized Shell Pack is appointed with 7-ply, 100% maple shells that produce full-bodied, rich, low tones. Some of the main appointments include the Mapex I.T.S. drum Mounting system, with minimal drum contact for better tone.
Mapex is proud to present the Meridian Drum Series to their arsenal of world-class drums. Mapex offers lighter weight, and less bulky appointments with the Meridian Series drum set. From tom holders to lugs and their tom mounting system, Mapex has rethought everything on this shell pack.
The drum shells feature Mapex's I.T.S. Mounting System, reinforcement of their commitment to "less is more." The Mapex drum mount is compact while continuing to enhance overall drum response with less shell contact. With this Mapex mount you are able to change drumheads with the tom still mounted to the tom holder.
The included tom holders are light with little bulk, to offer a sleek look and a light overall load. The corner-friendly double tom mounts have a third middle position for a cymbal arm (not included), to make for fewer tripod stands on the floor.
Cymbals and hardware not included.

Comments about Mapex Meridian Maple Standard 5-Piece Shell Pack:
These are not perfect, but well-matched to the price. As they say, you get what you pay for. And, what you get for your money spent here is a well-rounded kit that even the best drummer would be proud of.
But you don't read a review to hear the same parroted phrases describing how awesome these are. Here is an exhaustible list of issues I have with this kit:
1. The rack tom sizes are too similar. Mapex's SRO setup was available when I bought these, and I wish I had gone for those. Just doing the basic get-the-wrinkles-out tuning for the toms make them sound indistinguishable from each other, so you might as well not bother having two. This is fixable with more effort put into tuning, but I am nothing if not lazy and like to have the drums sound as great as possible with as little effort.
2. The finish isn't as I was expecting. I am speaking from the Midnight Steel finish; and while they certainly don't look bad, the lighter color purple center isn't nearly as exaggerated as the picture suggests. Nevertheless, they do look really nice...just not as nice as I was expecting.
3. Ugh, the heads. They aren't nearly as bad as normal stock heads you get on lower end kits, but I have never understood the appeal of clear heads on anything but fusion kits...and single ply clear bass batter head?! Its things like this that make people think they need to shove half a bed into their bass drum to make it sound good. The entire kit is WAY too resonant out-of-the-box for my taste. Perhaps that is my own fault for getting 6-ply shells, but I was hoping the extra thickness of the shell plys would alleviate that a bit. Slap some one, or even two ply coated heads on everything (especially the bass) and there is no need for any muffling.
4. This is just a personal thing, but I actually prefer cymbal mounted toms. Bass drum mounted toms are certainly convenient, but I find the toms move around a lot more than if they were cymbal stand mounted. This isn't really a negative thing against the kit, though.

The Tigers' Austin Jackson congratulates Nick Castellanos after Castellanos scores on a single by Rajai Davis in the third inning Tuesday, one of 14 runs scored by the Tigers. (Robin Buckson / Detroit News)
Detroit � Fans might�ve been down on the Tigers after Sunday�s loss, a third straight to the Rays after winning the opening game of the series.
But Tigers players, they weren�t sweating � particularly the hitters.
While they only scored three runs on seven hits off Rays ace David Price, the swings were better than that. Statistically. Torii Hunter even shared the numbers.
�We had 19 hard-hit balls and 10 lineouts,� Hunter said. �That game could�ve went totally different when David Price pitched on Sunday, but it didn�t.
�(Tuesday), we hit the ball the same way and this time we got hits.�
�Baseball,� Hunter added, cracking up, �sucks!�
The Tigers racked up a season-high 14 runs on 20 hits in Tuesday�s rout of the Dodgers, half of the hits coming off another tough left-hander, Hyun-jin Ryu.
Many of the hits weren�t hit that hard, but they found grass, either via a seeing-eye single through the infield or soft loopers that landed just in front of Dodgers outfielders.
All that, two days after some Tigers smashes went right to the gloves of the Rays.
�It�s a crazy game, I�m telling you,� said Hunter, 2-for-4 on Sunday against the Rays and 3-for-4 on Tuesday against the Dodgers. �Off Price, it was unbelievable.
�Baseball hates players. We just gotta try to dominate it and overcome it. It�s like a lion. You�re just trying to tame it.�
All the good swings are impressive, seeing as designated hitter Victor Martinez (side) remains out of the lineup, and Miguel Cabrera got his first day off of the year Wednesday.

The Fluvanna Rescue Squad
is back in business after several months of operating on a provisional license.
The squad had a successful
review Monday from the Virginia Office of Emergency Medical Services. Inspectors
say the rescue squad has really demonstrated its commitment to the health,
safety and wellness of the people who live in Fluvanna County.
The squad passed its
administrative re-inspection with flying colors. Inspectors say all of the
records they found deficient during the first inspection are now complete and
thorough and that many of the records are actually better than those of other
squads in the commonwealth.
"The folks that we met today
were absolutely wonderful. They greeted us with open arms. The inspection was
impeccable," said Heather Phillips, an EMS program representative supervisor. "They
did gain a two-year license and we went so far as to commend them for the
effort that they've obviously put forward and demonstrated to gain compliance
with the regulations."
Inspectors say the Fluvanna
Rescue Squad has demonstrated a high level of effort to stay in compliance with
state regulations.
Representatives from the
state organization say they want to see volunteer organizations like this
survive at all costs, so they were pleased with the squad's successful
Fluvanna County Press Release
Fluvanna County Rescue Squad passed their Virginia Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS) re-inspection today and earned a full two-year license to operate as a rescue squad in Virginia. The State inspectors complimented the Squad members on the administrative corrections and the updated procedures they have put in place since the May 6th initial inspection.
"The volunteer squad members are to be commended for the efforts they showed today. They made tremendous progress to put necessary policies in place," reported Nancy Burrows, Program Representative at Virginia OEMS. "Our goal is to guide compliance with the regulations so that communities are best served."
"That is the positive and hoped for result for the organization and for Fluvanna County. I am grateful for the recent strong efforts to get Fluvanna Rescue back on track, and for the hard work of Captain Davis, the Fluvanna Rescue Board, and all the dedicated volunteers who serve in the organization," said Steve Nichols, County Administrator for Fluvanna County.
The County will carry on with collaborative efforts to improve Fluvanna Rescue's communication with the County, 911 Center, and with the other agencies, to strengthen their organizational leadership and management, to support their recruitment, training, and retention of volunteers, and to improve Fluvanna Rescue's overall operational coverage and performance. County staff will continue to work through the Fluvanna Fire & Rescue Association and with the leadership of Fluvanna Rescue to achieve these important outcomes.
EMS agencies are inspected every two years for compliance for administrative requirements of Virginia regulations. Because there were some deficiencies found during the May 2013 inspection, OEMS issued Fluvanna Rescue a provisional license with correction orders, with a July 31st deadline to come into compliance. The operational issues found with the ambulances at the May 6th inspection were corrected, the vehicles re-inspected and placed back into service on May 22nd.

You're welcome.
Thank you genius!!!

As a Verizon customer you may not have to deal with this, but you have to deal with timely updates either.
Just saying....
superscientific says:
Damn what a pain in the ass but I was able to get a 16GB after smashing the "proceed" button about 50 times in a row. I had it in my cart about 10 times but my frustration got me through. This is so sad though. Google should be able to do better than this. I cannot believe the bumper is still out of stock! Lets go Google! *UPDATE It has been working for alot of people as I originally posted in the thread. Don't leave the cart. Just hit proceed a bunch of times. Keep clicking. It will finally go through! Good luck!
Versed says:
Thanks, did what you did after I read your post and my order went through.

vansmack says:
I had a Nexus 7 in my cart as a gift and was able to add a 16GB Nexus 4 without hassle at 11:59 PST. Don't know if that information will help others. Could have been a fluke with dumb luck for me, but I have a confirmation email and 1-2 week shipping time frame on the phone, 2-3 days on the Tablet.
I'm also a regular Google Wallet user so I didn't waste time adding any info.
I feel awful for the rest of you - I hope you all get one soon!

Oh, were you buying 2 so I could have one?
at least now it stays in my cart. won't let me proceed though.
This is making my iPhone5 look better and better.

phor11 says:
It's certainly great hardware.
However, your wireless contract will probably make it look worse and worse over time.
$30 a month for unlimited text + ~10-18Mbps unlimited internet? Yes please.
I have mine on Straight Talk.
dongemus says:
Yeah because waiting in line for a phone is better than sitting home drinking a beer and hitting F5.
MegaSoundwave76 says:
and now its out of my cart again. this is insane. insane.
I'm taking breaks, this is completely absurd. I'm normally an extremely patient person
Pre-dawn raid says:
I wonder how many people have said, "Screw it, I'm getting the iPhone5" over this bullsh!t that Google is pullin'? The staff at Google or at least the clowns that run the Play Store site must not have read a single comment in the past two weeks on these blogs/forums to see the utter frustration their patrons are experiencing. What a fucking joke.
They were on a long vacation for thanksgiving. they should fire the guy running this.
I was thinking the SAME thing. They're killing their own business with this.
Having iPhones for 4 years, the "screw it" thought crossed my mind. Still hanging in there, but that unexciting iPhone5 comes to mind every time I see that "opps" bubble message lol.
kugreg says:
Again, had the nexus in my cart no less than 4 times, failed each and every time. GOOGLE FAIL. This is crazy and stupid. Google should know how to do this better, it is ridiculous that a company as big as google can't handle something so simple as selling things. Figure it out, or hire some people from Amazon.
bethel03 says:
I finally got mine ordered at 12:23 PST...wow that was the worst buying experience of my life! Took 24 minutes, about 500 page refreshes and about 50 false attempts of adding the phone to the cart. Google should be ashamed of themselves...but then again I still gave them $400 of my money so maybe I should be ashamed of myself...ugh...
I will not try again later! I will try again right now!
itsjose says:
>_< I should've bought one in the first run when I had the chance and not even bothered trying to ugprade through T-Mobile. LESSON LEARNED.
Ironzey says:
WHY!!!! F this, Where can I get a good deal on a Note 2 for T mobile?
davidb423 says:
I was able to get one 16 did nexus 4
clicking through the menus for 35 minutes!
eventually I realized like another poster here
just keep clicking on the proceed button
I mashed on it 50 times, didn't go back to another screen or try to add a bumper to my cart
finally went through
I will be amazed if it ships in 2 weeks though
very disappointed, who else can get the servers to handle something?
can't they do a pre-order? if apple can figure that out why not google?
Dan Goodes says:
Dear Android Central.
Get the hell over it. At least you had a chance at this new round of stock. Didn't even launch anywhere else on Earth.
So suck it up.
The rest of the world.
Don't be an ****
If you were sitting here for 45 minutes you'd be frustrated too.
Johnbibbs says:
His point stands though. It's only a phone, relax people.
Uncle Louie says:
Uhhhhh huh. Judging by ALL OF THE OTHER COMMENTS IN THIS POST, it's really just Android Central having the problem.

We're trying to get over it.

PWC Realtor says:
The problem too is that when you try to add an item to the cart ane that fails it still adds the item to the cart. By the time I was able to view my cart I had two 16GB models in my cart. Adjusted for one then went to proceed to checkout and BOOM FAIL.
Good thing I have a GNex to hold me over.

Site is down at present

no i am getting sold out on both. if the optimus g had an unlocked bootloader i would go for it right now.

Got mine on launch day. Got another today. whats so special about my computer?
its manned by a douchebag
(sorry, had to vent somewhere)
Keeps popping in and out of stock!! Shows Sold Out one second and Add to Cart the next. I got it in the cart about 10 times, still no luck with processing the order. i wish they would just let us back-order and forget about it, this is frustrating to say the least!!

When you have it in cart don't leave. Keep hitting proceed. Yellow banners will show saying it is not going through but keep hitting it. Then you will see a payment window pop up eventually
jonesdavide says:
That is what I did, and just kept clicking proceed. Eventually after alot of rapid fire clicking, I got a Captcha window to verify I was a human. Then it took me back to my cart and I rapid fired clicked until it proceeded to the next page for me to choose Google Wallet and submit my payment info.
greatgoogly says:
I think it's quite clear that Google has managed to arrive at an intersection of storefront incompetence and arrogance. It's not just that the process is broken, it's that they have no apparent concern that it is broken. This is a continuation of the failed Nexus 7 launch over the summer where pre-orders didn't ship until at a week after the product was in B&M storefronts. No statements from Google admitting a problem, no apparent progress towards fixing the situation, in fact they seem to have gotten worse. I kind of wonder after this if Google will just drop the Nexus line of devices and simply decide they don't have the stomach to sell the devices directly to the customer.
i am convinced that google play with devices selling is a prelude to an all out competition to amazon, sellling all kind of junk. But right now i feel like they are a decade behind i technology.
rkhaudio says:
Just awful, 40 minutes of wasted time, had it in my cart at least 10 times and then disappeared. Google is lost in this experience and so am I, will try one more time in a few hours.
rkhaudio says:
Finally, got one at 4:45 pm, says 2 - 3 week ship time.
I loved my Nexus One and after a 2yr hiatus, I want back in. Having a terrible reunion however. Seems like they still half ass everything commercial. Not sure which is worse, the Apple teet or Google's abandonment.
digitalslacker says:
I got mine...
Trick I used was open 3 browsers (they gotta be 3 different ones (IE, FF and Chrome) so the sessions are not the same) then just keep trying...took 13 min.
Don't worry i dropped the others outa my cart for yall after i got through.
Kumar Maloney says:
First world problems... :)
i cant get the yellow banner to stop!
So are they sold out now? I that's all i am getting :(
samagon says:
Google posts trollface.gif, you mad bro?
deltatux says:
... While us Canadians are drinking beer raging that it didn't even bother coming North...
eljedo says:
+1 on that one. I was so excited to see the email this morning saying it would be available at noon PST, then the little part that said US only. I'm surprised Canada sold out so fast the first time, must have been very limited stock.
spicy-chicken says:
You're lucky you got an email. Hopefully, it's coming to Canada in a few days since I missed out on the first batch of the 30 minute early launch. 12:00 they say. liars. ugh.
Dramer77 says:
i cant get throught either, this is BS.. i took my lumia 920 back to get one..
db0311 says:
Google - FAIL!!!!
mmaestro says:
45 minutes of trying, got to click to add to my cart 6 times, saw the cart twice, got server errors every time I tried to check out. And now it looks like they're gone.
I should send Google a bill for my time they wasted.
dbareis says:
If you are going to not allow preorder in blocks (so *not* first in best dressed) and therefore require people to wait around pressing F5 (already loading the server up) and then open the store the SYNCRONISED orders will kill it for sure. Don't know why anyone is surprised, could easily be predicted by Google...
Of course by not allowing preorder Google don't know if they have enough ready either.
kymoon says:
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have so far had it in my cart 9 times, and I can't proceed with the checkout!!!!!! Totally ridiculous!!!
I finally got one after 50 minutes of headache. I have multiple computers and browsers working on smashing that button. Surprisingly the one that went through was a Chrome window that I neglected for a while. I came back to it to give it another try, refreshed the page, device was still there, hit proceed, went through right away.
smooney3 says:
Finally got mine ordered. As a couple of others have said, if you can manage to get it in your cart, just keep clicking proceed until it actually does so. Don't leave or try to refresh the cart or it just deletes it and you'll have to start over.
hisownhero says:
That is the trick as others have said. Had success on Firefox.
masterpfa says:
Although we are still waiting in the UK, I purchased a Nexus 7 (or completed an order to be precise) and decided to include my order for a bumper at the same time as the tablet.
If my first experience was anything to go by, when I next attempt to purchase this phone I do not have any intentions of trying to add anything else to the basket to hinder any possible success in completing my order.
randyw says:
You can not even get to the Devices section now. Server is down.
finally got mine in after 1 hour of hell!
SgtMijo says:
sold out
ugahairydawgs says:
C'mon all....take it easy on Google. It's not like they're a web company or something.
I am not ordering one (again), but, it states 4 to 5 weeks delivery again.
What is going on?
this was more like a game than a purchase...
Ryan Christians says:
Finally got it!!! My mouse finger is going to fall off! I have no idea how many times I clicked proceed. It was funny, once the next screen came up I actually froze for a couple of seconds in disbelief.
ptjTkVHCPo77pyoEcGkMnQn2 says:
If any other tech giant in the Bay failed like this heads would roll.
Clearly this is intentional.
smooney3 says:
So, who is going to start the petition for Google to replace all the ruined F5 keys?
mercado79 says:
The other message is:
"Oops, we had trouble processing your request. We're working on fixing the issue. Please try again later."
Or, invalid request. Or, the item has been removed from your cart because it is out of stock... And then you see it's back in stock. What the hell is this?
Oh and I forgot one more: "We're sorry, there was an error. Please try again later."
robmalt1 says:
Thanks Phil. Maybe they'll get the message?
Anyone else getting we had trouble processing your order? or just Due to high demand?
alexvasquez86 says:
EVERYONE GET OFF!!! so i can buy mine! lol
borrowedchief says:
Honestly, I'm taking my money elsewhere at this point. Ridiculous.
Eloquence says:
I got 2!!! YAY!! 3 parts luck - 1 part skills! :)
RedVagabond says:
Do the thing where you keep hitting process, even though it's grayed out. I had to hit it about 2.5 million times (rough estimate) but it finally put me through so i could enter payment info. I got confirmation and the whole 9. purchased a 16 gig :) Happy to be trying android out after being on WebOS and WP7 :)
georgema says:
This is a pretty poor showing on Google's part as this should have been resolved before the second launch was allowed to go ahead. Have one in my shopping cart and just going to keep on hitting proceed. Fingers crossed....!
more than 1hour of clicking now and still nothing. now all i get is sold out on both models. I am beyond upset right now.
Dramer77 says:
just got off the phone with google, they said it was sold out in the first 5 minutes and that is why everyone is having these issues
Impossible. People above have stated they got it waaaay after five minutes.
one hour trying to place my order and gives me the errors, my cart gets empty. this is the worst online experience i have ever experienced. this is not acceptable from a company like google. they need a sales team with experience. I'm thinking on buying a f**** blackberry now!!!!! or jump off brooklyn bridge might be better.
Christopher Nelson says:
How to purchase a Nexus 4 phone during high traffic:
1. Refresh page in any browser until you can successfully add to cart. There is no trick to this.
2. Once you see the phone in your cart, do NOT click on anything. TAB over to the Proceed button and HOLD down the Enter button for several minutes (however long it takes) until the purchase goes through. In Firefox I saw the different "error" messages changing and popping up during this time. Just HOLD down enter until it goes through. Took me about 3 full minutes.
3. Enjoy knowing that you were able to purchase the phone.
Christopher Nelson says:
Apparently in certain browsers spam-clicking the proceed button will also work.
i'm like 20 minutes doing it, i give up
cynicist says:
Took me a full hour, but it works.
ultraviolet says:
You freakin rock! I spent 2 full hours of hitting proceed and just did your method and got it through in 2 minutes!
also, how can they be sold out on an item that will be shipped in a week or 2?!!!!!!
eucarter says:
Hey Google needs to understand its user-base, Android it HOT and people want it! I'm ditching stale ios to go back. Please fix this Google.
Rich Misenti says:
I just completed my order. Upon having the phone in your cart, just spam the Proceed button 50 times!
samagon says:
shows in stock, just added to cart, it said it would ship when available. I am happy with my gnex though, so I removed it. Keep pounding F5 guys!
Cubfan says:
I got two, but the second was accidental. After trying for 45 minutes, I wasn't about to try and fix it. Don't imagine I'll have any trouble getting rid of the second one. :)
I will buy your second one if you want. This whole experience has been a nightmare! I have probably hit the refresh button over 1000 times and only made it to the checkout once before the site crashed. So frustrating!
Chris Avila says:
I kept clicking the "Proceed" button for 60 seconds straight and it let me through! I was able to order the 16GB model. I really hope Google doesn't deny these order requests now that they've made it through.
Cubfan says:
I got "shipping in 1-2 weeks." Is that the best? Or did some see a better message?
tejasoffroad says:
YAYYYY!!! YEAAAHHHHH!!! they took my money!!!! Finally, yup, just clicked proceed a thousand times. got the confirmation email. Now running around the house screaming that i got one. YAYYYY!!!!! good luck to everyone else.
Edit: got the 16gb and "1-2 weeks" for me too
Chris Avila says:
No money is taken until the order has been shipped. Read your receipt. I really hope these orders actually made it through :(
doesnt even show up in my cart when i click add to cart now!!
Google has unwittingly (or not) created a massive distributed denial of service attack on itself.
latouffe says:
no no no. you dont understand. dont fix it. JUST )!#%*!@#_*( EXPAND THE GOOGLE PLAY TO OTHER COUNTRIES! I WANT GOOGLE MUSIC, MAGS, SHOP AND ALL THE GOOD STUFF IN POLAND, GREECE, GERMANY, SWEDEN AND ALL THE OTHER EUROPEAN COUNTIRES!
Vangsterz says:
I am working up a sweat mashing this button.
f it. I quit
Just switched hands to take over the button mashing
ineedme says:
This is just ridiculous
I give up for now, I've already wasted an hour and a half of my life
Does not make sense that they wouldnt just take peoples money and put them in line. GET WITH IT GOOGLE!
The worlds largest search engine. You would think they could keep up with the demand. Im so pissed!!! Im almost ready to just spend my money somewhere else. I would be fine with them at least being able to take my order but no they cant even do that.
dwhall says:
Galaxy Note 2 for me I am thinking... Done dealing with Googles crap.
I feel the same way. I have been waiting for a new phone and now I cant get it.
I recently just got the Note 2... awesome phone, highly recommend it.
will_solo says:
Google Play is currently experiencing very high traffic. Nexus 4 is not sold out and will still be available for purchase. Please try again shortly. Thank you for your patience.
Just got this message...
Yeah, just got the same message.
yah same here....
Same, just came up
iowabeakster says:
Hey a new error message. I was getting tired of the other three. Gotta love variety.
And now I'm also getting a google wallet error pop-up on occasion.
i'll take it as progress. :)
Mobius360 says:
Just so disappointing and a waste of time.
Jeremy626 says:
google is pretty shit.
multi billion dollars and can't even SELL SHIT on their site?
are you fkn kidding me???????
I just got this message. "Google Play is currently experiencing very high traffic. Nexus 4 is not sold out and will still be available for purchase. Please try again shortly. Thank you for your patience."
ncsu4life says:
what a ridiculous buying experience. for anyone other than hardcore android adopters Google will lose the average Joe who has heard about this phone and then tries to purchase one. which is a shame since this is such a nice phone.
Says high traffic and N4 are not sold out....hope it doesn't mean that by the time the traffic is fine, they'll be sold out by then lol.
mech1164 says:
As much as I wanted this. I'm so glad I have my GSM Gnex now. I'll be back in May after IO and get this then.:-)
Oskiee says:
Has anyone managed to order one?
So does this mean that the 8gb version will be delivered this year or is it still 4-5weeks out? That's the only reason why i have the 16gb in my cart right now.
helladd says:
I give up! (for now) congrats for the winners :P
miller7796 says:
Holy shit, I finally got my order placed. Used Firefox and tabbed over to the proceed button. Held down enter for about 10 minutes. Wallet took forever to load, but it eventually went through and I have an order number. Now to wait...
I was afraid they'd temporarily ignore my requests for Dos attacking them if I did this, but it actually worked. Thanks so much.
Now to get a beer and forget this disaster, two hours of clicking a button to buy a phone grr.
miller7796 says:
No kidding, I was worried the entire time that I would be locked out of my account for spam.
clintbrown15 says:
If you go back to Google Play now, there is a disclaimer at the top which says that the Nexus 4 is not sold out and that Google Play is just seeing a lot of site traffic. Most of you need to just relax with all of the dramatic #FAIL comments. Whether you buy it today or not, Google will still sell tons of these phones.
I managed to order an 8GB, I wanted the 16 but this is better than nothing. I now have very sore fingers and a worn out clicker.
I think a Walmart checkout line does a better job than this lol.
altonova1 says:
OMG! GOT MINE! I had 1 chrome window, 1 incognito window, 1 IE window, 1 in-private window and held the enter button on the "Proceed" button for 2 minutes on each page and rotated around. FINALLY got my order in after 2 HOURS!
FINALLY, I have it. Decided to keep trying after the latest message saying they weren't sold out. I had done the "Spam Proceed!" method for the past hour and half with no results (even went so far as to use my laptop and home desktop, no luck). I was going to let it go, but of course I had to try again. Spammed Proceed and... BAM. Just waiting on the confirmation email. Good luck to everyone else (and me, 'cause it still might not go through, smh)
jonnytbegood says:
After trying for nearly an hour and a 45 and feeling hopeless, I was able to order one. Keep at it guys...keep on clicking (or entering) that proceed button!! Fingers crossed for everybody!!!
"Due to high demand"? they're kidding right? How about "Due to our ineptitude,..."
Have been trying for a couple of hours now, still no luck!
Well, there's three "I got one!" comments back-to-back. I think a lot of people gave up, so if you want one, now is the time to try!
Yeah, fair enough. I'm still trying of course. I'm outside and forgot my USB mouse at home though, clicking a trackpad mercilessly is hard!
I was just getting off work as the phone was back in stock. I tried to order it from the Play Store on my Kyocera Hydro on my way home... smh. I know how you feel lol
Lol....I finally got one now! Seeing the order confirmation was worth the effort.
henryr934 says:
just order mine keep triying
PWC Realtor says:
anyone else feel that the line on the Play store about Nexus 4s not being sold out is just to pacify the angry mob?
RHFlorida says:
I tried since before noon PST and had two in my cart several times, kept hitting the proceed button, etc., etc. My wife did the same, and we have been at it the whole time. We decided to change tactics and only put one in each cart. Within a few minutes we each had one.
jonnytbegood says:
I highly recommend using the ENTER button at the "proceed" option folks!
ultraviolet says:
I second that!
stella_s55 says:
+1 - It really does work!
CoolBeit says:
Can't believe everyone is putting themselves through this. Give it a month and there will be plenty to go around.
hmmm says:
Better this than listening to people bitch all month long about theirs getting put on backorder because Google sold too many.
iowabeakster says:
2 hours later... purchase! Success!
I am glad I don't to the black Friday thing... this was close enough. My wife is gonna be excited with her new phone!
youareme7 says:
it's looking like they're finally starting to get a handle on the traffic, it's not slowing down at all for me anymore. Now they just need to bring the bumper back and start selling that awesome orb!! for such a highly touted feature you'd think they would have those for sale by now too...
blobpet says:
I was able to get through by doing the hold-down-enter-key trick. I didn't even remember about the sale until 40 minutes after it started.
masterpfa says:
Latest message on the web site
Google Play is currently experiencing very high traffic. Nexus 4 is not sold out and will still be available for purchase. Please try again shortly. Thank you for your patience.
wtfffff, still cant get an order through.
still showing:
Due to high demand, your order could not be processed. Please try again later.
kmcochran says:
Holey Crickey! I just tried that hold down enter key trick and it worked! I got a payment method box!!! Let's hope I really got a phone!!!
The Rambler says:
Still not able to order it... but on a positive note the N4 stays in my cart. Progress?
If it is staying in the cart that's a good thing...you need to go absolutely wild on the Proceed button. Google seems to have gotten a handle on the whole thing - only a matter of time...keep at it!
se1000 says:
phositadc says:
ROFLMAO finally got through at 5:26!
BTW, so the order page says "1-2 weeks." But the little message on the website said, "Nexus 4 is still in stock, but play store is just experiencing heavy traffic. Keep trying."
What's the truth? Is it in stock currently? Or will it be in stock in 1-2 weeks?
Rajat Sharma says:
got it...the hold enter thing worked for me
Rajat Sharma says:
and i ordered from india using VPN..as my friend z comng here ds christmas nd i wanted nexus really bad...so ordered from here using his card
impulse101 says:
Phil is the same guy who told us all that there is no ZOOM function in the new GMAIL app, lol
Another success with holding down enter while the proceed button is selected. After numerous attempts I held the button down for a minute or so, got tired and checked another tab, then when I switched back I had the google wallet prompt. Confirmation email received.
Never again...until the nexus 5.
dwhall says:
Finally went through... When it will show up? I just do not know lol
Are you still suppose to see "Due to high demand, your order could not be processed" when you hold down the enter key? When I hold down the enter key I don't see any messages.
You should see the error message, make sure proceed is highlighted when you're holding down enter. You'll have to hit tab a bunch of times to cycle through different elements of the page until it's highlighted.
vijayd says:
Thanks a lot guys. Hold down the Enter key worked like charm. I got a email receipt from Google wallet.
Scamx02 says:
Yes I got mine (16g) thanks to guy for the tip that hold the enter key, it works
maxnicks says:
I ordered 6 in the first batch. I've received five. For the other I received the email. My cuz ordered four this morning with no issues.
Six...? WHy so many?
Lazo7 says:
Can any explain the enter key trick!!???
Once you're on the cart page hit tab and different elements of the page will be highlighted. Hit tab until proceed is highlighted and then hold down enter. You'll get the yellow error message at the top but just keep holding.
vijayd says:
When Nexus shows in cart with "Proceed" button instead of clicking it, press 'TAB' key and move the focus keyboard focus to the "Proceed" button. Press and hold your "Enter" key for some time and let it go. After a few minutes, a pop-up appears and you can purchase your order.
jeffandpamsmith says:
I was able to order 2 16gb models seperately within 2 minutes.
Put it in your cart then keep clicking proceed every second. Ignore the yellow message just keep clicking. Eventually it sent me to an order screen.
I dont think it took more than 90 seconds of clicking...so I went back to the playstore and did it again. I have 2 coming. If my wife doesnt like hers its up for grabs at same price.
NOTE: as I was typing, Capital One fraud dept called me to be sure the 2 orders of $380 each (with tax and shipping) were not fraud, so I know the Play Store charged my visa!
Now, off to run thru the neighborhood with Bob (my Golden Retriever) with the theme to "Rocky" blaring thru my imagination.
PS I ordered using Google Chrome
vargaslc says:
Finally, enter key trick worked for me. Thanks!
davela72 says:
Finally, a 16GB purchased! I was very persistent with the "proceed" key and it mysteriously went through. That was a PITA.
YEA!!! Ok so the enter key is definitely the trick. For the newbie like me, you need to hit the tab key until the PROCEED button is highlighted. Hold down the enter and I was able to check out in 45 seconds.
In case your order takes longer, I was clicking on the mouse for 2 hours...
dp4 says:
Most likely, Google spent the last two weeks building a custom analytics suite from the ground up, to measure how many orders are failing this time around, rather than fixing the fact that the orders are failing. Because information is POWER!!!
ipguy says:
this looks like a US only release for now, i'm still getting the "out of stock" message in AU
Enter key trick worked for me too! 16GB Ordered!
what the hell i still can't get through and now message reads 2-3 weeks delivery :(
davela72 says:
My confirmation email says 2-3 weeks for delivery. Keep trying, keep hitting the proceed key, quickly.
farrock02 says:
tabbing over to the proceed button and holding enter definitely works. wish i knew that 3 hours ago.
itmustbejj says:
My gf just got our order for 2 16gb's through with the "tab to submit and hold enter" aka "Die in a waterfall of submits you Google bastards" method.
The Enter key trick worked for me too.
nahun7 says:
Holding enter on Proceed worked for me too. Just hold that son of a bitch down for a LONG time.
Mauibrenton says:
dannyboy414 says:
It only took three hours this time. Finally got my order placed. Two-Three Weeks I'll have my phone!
does google wallet work with IE7? i am stuck at work and thats the only browser i have access to?
onetonofclay says:
Only took 2.5 hours, but I got it. 16 gig.
winstonlegthigh says:
Enter trick worked for me in Internet Explorer. Tried Chrome and Firefox with no success, but loaded up IE, tabbed over to Proceed and held enter for about 30 seconds before the screen gray'd out a bit and the Google Wallet window slowly loaded up.
Rendin says:
Ditto on the Enter trick working. Just got my 16GB version ordered after 3 hours and 20 minutes. Only took about 5 minutes after I read about the Enter trick on here. It was using Chrome on Linux FWIW.
Robert Kelen says:
Amazingly the "Enter" trick worked for me too (though for me took an hour)... Found something heavy to hold down the key for me, and moved on to other things.
How the company that knows more about what people are searching for than any other could so badly misjudge demand, and then spend the two weeks between launch day and today and still make no improvements to the Google Play buying experience is quite amazing.
Innersoul33 says:
ENTER KEY TRICK WOOOOOOORKKKKSSS. I have been trying for 3 hours and just got through.
andyferg says:
+1 for the 'enter' trick. Been messing around with refresh/proceed sporadically since 12:30 PT on 2 devices, this worked like a charm!
stella_s55 says:
The "Enter" trick worked for me as well. I had to hold down the "Enter" key for about 1 minute then had to wait about 10 minutes and then I got the pop up to proceed. I was a little shocked and amazed that it actually worked! Thanks for the tip!!!! ^_^ Even though I will have to wait 2-3 weeks I know I will not have go through this stress again. I was using Chrome.
helladd says:
Worst buying experience ever!!! but i finally got one
dcreed says:
They've only got 17 units. They're being hand-made by fairies on a small island and then rowed to shore by leprechauns.
FWIW, the Enter trick worked in IE for me.
will_solo says:
I ordered the 8GB, then cancelled. 4-5 weeks, forget it.
itsjose says:
Get the 16gb 1-2 week wait ;)
Andresrsx0807 says:
Does anyone else get a picture with a broken robot when trying to check out? It says they couldn't complete my purchase because of a technical issue.
chestont says:
I got that because my google wallet info had expired. Entered updated payment information on Google Wallet and I was good to go.
@chestont thanks so much for your advice! I updated my Google Wallet and I was able to finally buy one. What a process but I'm glad that I finally managed to order one. Now the wait for them to be delivered starts.
maungmoe1 says:
Omg, it took almost 3 hours but I finally got 2of each. \oo/
Amir47 says:
Welcome to the wait list. I been there since the 13th
nukem98 says:
I got home from work and failing to get it with my phone. Constant high usage. Just fired up the laptop and got the phone in my cart and pulverized my right mouse button non stop. After 30 non stop clicks the order is placed and confirmed for 1.
thefutureman says:
kept pushing "proceed" for about 15 seconds and it actually worked (finally). confirmation email just received. will be my first android phone. i already have a nexus 7 and can't wait to ditch my iphone 4 on some poor soul.
RonD says:
Only took 3 hr and 50 minutes. I wore my finger out so just left the page open. The not sold out message had gone away, but the order didn't show that it had sold out so I figured it will just take to catch up. After doing nothing on the page for about a 1/2 hr, suddenly there was the checkout page.
Weirdo0815 says:
I ordered 2, for both my wife and myself, a few minutes ago. I too had to smash the enter key on the "Proceed" button but it worked.
willinthe985 says:
Been clicking proceed the last 4 hours...
willinthe985 says:
Well, got through by clicking proceed really fast. Called to tell the gf the good news and she informed me that I just ruined my Christmas gift. She was able to get one two weeks ago. :-(
Mobius360 says:
Gave up a while ago. Checked the page and 1 magically now sitting in my cart. Hit proceed and went straight to the order page. 4:10PM PST order confirmed. Hopefully gets here before Xmas, really looking forward to trying AT&T and T-Mobile in comparison to my Sprint Gnex. Now to read that article Jerry posted on getting the Sim cards.
Morjesta says:
I bought mine (2x) successfully, after 4 trillion failed attempts! Good luck guys!
Lazo7 says:
Thanks! The tab trick worked but now i got a 2-3 week delivery!!! Blaaa! O well still got my iphone 5... My first android phone!!
drewC says:
It's disappointing that Google hasn't learned anything yet. By the time people got their devices (8GB in particular) it will be time for CES 2013, and hardware wise at least this would be a much forgotten device. The mobile tech world moves too fast for some to wait around for 6-7 weeks.
I ordered mine on the original launch date and I just got an email today with a tracking number. Hope the device arrives tomorrow.
Google, for future reference, pre-order is the way to go. The whole idea of Nexus devices being the portal to Play Store contents would not work if: 1) the contents are poor or not as rich as your competition(think iTunes and Amazon); 2) people can't get their hands on your devices in the first place. -_-
jjnova says:
I am getting a different screen than everyone else. When I click on Proceed, I get the following
Uh oh. There was a problem.
We couldn't start your purchase because of a technical issue.
Details of the problem below:
Sorry, we were unable to process this request. Please try again later.
Gustavo Beckman says:
hey dude, this happened to me over and over.
after 5 hours i decided to change the google account and it worked
AgentRedlum says:
Was just able to get the 16GB version. Only had to wait five hours before the site would let me (first world problems!).
google trollllllll!!!!! mother fucker!!!!!!! now 8:10 pm ET could finally place my order!!!!!!!!!
Paul Sieradzki says:
^ditto. I was considering getting two, (one for myself and one to sell), but I think that by the time we get ours, the profit bubble would have burst, no?
I thought exactly the same and when the time came to pay I erased one from my cart.
Droid841 says:
Finally got through! Crap was more frustrating than being in line at the DMV. Ugh Google get your crap together!
Paul Sieradzki says:
I managed to finally get one. Still stuck with the 2-3 week delivery though. But this was definitely frustrating. I was debating on getting two, but I can only afford one 16GB (for myself) and an additional 8GB to sell for profit, but I feel like I won't get it until after the "bubble". Thoughts?
Vidgames says:
If it's any help, I had been trying to get my cart to checkout all afternoon (wish I had read about the enter key trick) using Chrome, but no go. Just now, I loaded up the Play Store in Firefox and went right through the order process. Strange.
Yahma says:
Tab trick doesn't seem to work in Chrome. I ended up clicking for over an 1.5 hours, and finally got the 16GB. My finger hurts now.
Joel Sparza says:

I have a 301 redirect to non-www, but www pages still getting views.
I have a 301 redirect on my htaccess files, but my analytics show that some www page were being hit. Sometimes i get errors that pages were not found by google. These are my results from today... i hope they show up right.
When I accesss my google webmaster tools I see some of my urls all mixed up.
mahes that are supposed to be like http://bootcamp4me.com/meps/ are showing up as /meps/http://www.bootcamp4me.com

What's up, Doc?
Okay, you're not a webmaster because you've abused your .htaccess file significantly.
First, and this one gets a "Standard Rant" is the use of <IfModule> tests.
[standard rant #4]The definition of an idiot is someone who repeatedly does the same thing expecting a different result. Asking Apache to confirm the existence of ANY module with an <IfModule> ... </IfModule> wrapper is the same thing in the webmaster world. DON'T BE AN IDIOT! If you don't know whether a module is enabled, run the test ONCE then REMOVE the wrapper as it is EXTREMELY wasteful of Apache's resources (and should NEVER be allowed on a shared server).[/standard rant #4]
No, I'm not calling you an idiot, just explaining that no webmaster would ever abuse a server with MULTIPLE <IfModule> (server) tests for EVERY file request. In any case, all that @#$% is likely in the httpd.conf where it belongs.
Second, FollowSymLinks is ALSO probably set in the httpd.conf.
Third, what is your specification? If it's to remove www from your URLs, then your code is inhibited from this with the !=on conditional test.
RewriteEngine on # Remove www # RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on is NOT necessary RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.+)$ [NC] RewriteRule .? http://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

End ****\'s Weekly DRIVEL Column
This petition is aimed at ending ****\'s weekly column of utter drivel. We believe the **** Reporter would be better served offering the weekly column to someone who has something to say and would be of interest to the **** Reporter Readers, perhaps local MP John Leech. **** writes in the most patronising and tedious manner possible, and his weekly column is a waste of ink and paper not to mention the hours wasted writing and reading this column. Please sort it out Mr Editor!
