New York hotels in the city that never sleeps
Visit our travel guide page to New York
While New York is well known for its eateries, it is one of the most famous shopping cities in the world. The one block Macy's in Herald Square is perhaps the most famous department stores in the world, and a must see. Saks Fifth Avenue is the store to go for high-end designer and old-world glamour. There are hundreds of shops to choose from and prices vary.
New York is a hotspot of fusion food and cuisine from around the world and visitors can easily browse for anything from classic Italian food to Chinese cuisine, which are all right on the same street. Flavours and styles vary, and many of them, such as the bagel or the Philadelphia Cheese Steak are American classics. Those looking for something a little classier can consider the 21 Club for American cuisine, the Aquavit for Scandinavian, or the Del Posto for Italian. A stop for a famous New York hotdog is of course a must.
Major Points of Interest
With Central Park, the Statue of Liberty and Times Square, New York is one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world. New York's hotels like the Ritz Carlton and the Waldorf are symbols of old world luxury, and attractions on their own. Visitors can stop by one of many museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art or the Museum of Natural History, visit Grand Central Station and take a subway ride, or go on a ferry ride to Ellis Island.
New York City is the place to be for anyone who likes sports because the city is home to the headquarters for the NFL, Major League Basketball, Major league Baseball, the National Hockey League, and the Major Soccer League (Football). The four most famous stadiums include the Madison Square Garden, MetLife Stadium, Yankee Stadium, and Citi Stadium.
New York is the home of some of the largest conventions in the world, including Comic Con, the NYC Bike Committee, Romance Riot (a convention for singles), and literally dozens more. As a result, there are more than twenty high-end convention centres available, including the Jacob K. Javits Convention Centre, the Desmond TuTu Center, The Madison Square Garden Expo Center, and more, which each have plenty of New York hotels nearby.

Yes, she Cannes: Karen Gillan's portrait on the French Riviera. (AP Photo/Jonathan Short)
If the Doctor ever finds himself short of a pair of binoculars, at a crucial moment, Karen Gillan's got them.
In an interview about her last day on Doctor Who, she told the Daily Record that she has taken one item as a souvenir of her time on the show, and it's part of the TARDIS: "I didn't get to keep any Pond stuff because everything related to Doctor Who goes into exhibitions. But I might have taken a little special something from the TARDIS."
When asked, she was forced to admit it's "a pair of binoculars. They look really weird in my house, just sitting there."
She also revealed that her last filmed scene was an emotionally charged affair: "It was a weird, serene day where everyone was feeling it. We don't film in chronological order so the last shot we filmed was me, Matt and Arthur going into the TARDIS. Then Matt closed the door for the last time and we were in darkness. We hugged and started crying. It was kind of tears of happiness. It was a feeling of 'Look at what we've done'. It was lovely."
• Karen stepped out of the TARDIS and onto the French Riviera last week for the Cannes Film Festival. She was there to publicize her film Not Another Happy Ending, which is set to start shooting in Glasgow in July. The director John McKay, who also directed her in We'll Take Manhattan, in which she played Jean Shrimpton. This time, Karen is playing "Jane Lockhart, a headstrong and passionate author of miserable fiction who suffers writer's block on her second novel." Her publisher has an unorthodox way of snapping her out of the funk — by making her miserable.
• We've been excited to see the reaction to Karen Gillan's announcement that she'd love a role on the NBC sitcom Community (which has featured a Doctor Who spoof titled Inspector Spacetime). "Karen Gillan" and the hashtag "#AmyMeetsAbed" were trending on Twitter last Tuesday, and some stars from Community have tweeted their enthusiastic approval.
And THE Neil Gaiman chimed in with elegant brevity on Tumblr, "Insert one of those wistful 'how I would love to write this scene' icons here."
• We're still trailing ahead to the release of the Doctor Who Playstation game The Eternity Clock, which will be out tomorrow (May 23).
Here's a Dalek's-eye view of what will happen:
• This week's Life Outside The TARDIS feature is all about Peter Davison, the Fifth Doctor and a man with a rare ability to convey stress in a charming way.
• Hats off to Steven Moffat, without whom this would be quite an empty roundup. He's set to receive a special award at this week's BAFTA TV Awards, simply for being marvelous.
He joshingly told BBC News: "Blimey. A Special Award. I didn't even know I was ill. So thrilled by this – especially after two years of [working on] Sherlock and Doctor Who, my two favorite shows ever."
Speaking of trophies, Neil Gaiman and Richard Clark won a Bradbury at last week's Nebula Awards for The Doctor's Wife, a script which demonstrates full understanding of the Doctor Who world while adding brand new twists. Gaiman tweeted a picture of his award.
• A quick show of hands: Who saw the Doctor Who cosplay reference in Criminal Minds?
What, ALL of you? OK…
• This week's rogues for the Rogues Gallery are the very literally named Haemovores. They're, like, evolved vampire humans from the far future who've come back in time to invent Dracula, and stuff? A most singular sub-species indeed.
• Speaking of popular Who baddies, Doctor Who Magazine has recruited every Dalek that ever exterminated for one killer cover spread.

In a lengthy, somewhat intimate retrospective piece posted today to Samsung Tomorrow, the electronics giant revisits the launch of the Galaxy SIII. Readers likely remember a launch that almost came off without a hitch, but which was tarnished by a "shortage" of Pebble Blue colored units. Following the international delay, Samsung said there'd be no delay for the Pebble Blue SIII's in the States, and all seemed to be well.
Are you just getting home from work and looking to unwind with some tunes? Maybe you want to rock out to the music on your phone – oh, but that crappy little speaker just won't cut it. The Monster ClarityHD, however, can pump out much more sound, and it's on sale from Best Buy. Yes, you might actually have a reason to buy something from Best Buy.

Welcome to the Android Police Podcast, Episode 44.
Don't forget - the Android Police Podcast's live broadcast is every Thursday at 5PM PST (www.androidpolice.com/podcast).

These are the full deal, too – both days, every event, all zones, every workshop, all presentations...
If you have a Motorola Photon Q, time to start the ritualistic checking for updates: a new OTA is headed out this morning. Software version 7.7.1Q-6_SPR-125_ASA-14, the first update since the ASA-10 maintenance release in October, will get your Q running the latest and greatest. And no, it's not Jelly Bean (though the Q will be getting Jelly Bean... at some point). The changelog isn't much of a log, either:
- Various fixes to improve overall device stability
But hey, bug fixes are bug fixes, and that's probably going to make someone somewhere happy.
Forget skeuomorphism. Why do we need things that look like objects if we can just use actual objects? That's what reddit user and notable George Bruns ballad davy_crockett thought.

Want to play music? Tap the headphones.
To round out our coverage of the Play Store's very best offerings from 2012, we're back with our top picks for best new game. In the interest of saving readers time, energy, and money in their search for awesome new games, we've compiled a short list of only the most notable games from the past year.
Our picks are arranged in no particular order, and since there are far more than four new games worth talking about, so we've got plenty of runners up.
If you've even dabbled in the Android mod scene, you know Koushik "Koush" Dutta. He's the chap who made ClockworkMod recovery and several other handy tools for advanced users. His latest app is Carbon, which may or may not be sarcastically named after the famously postponed Twitter app. (The app icon is a trollface - we'll leave the interpretation up to you.) The function is simple: back up both your local APKs and their associated app data.
One hundred million – that's a pretty massive number. And it's one that Samsung can now tout as a sales figure for the Galaxy S line as a whole. That's a combined number for the entire series: the Galaxy S, Galaxy S II, and Galaxy S III; no other Galaxy phones, like the Note, are included.
The original Galaxy S made its debut in June of 2010, with the Galaxy S II arriving just 10 months later – in April of 2011.

Most Popular App In The US? It's Facebook (Thanks To Apple)
Facebook can thank Apple for helping making it the top overall mobile app in the U.S. in 2012, according to new numbers out today from the comScore Mobile Metrix service.
ComScore says Facebook ended the year with more than 85 million unique adult visitors — that's on both Android and iOS. It's about 11 million more unique visitors than Google Maps. After Facebook, Google apps hold down the next five spots.
Facebook and Google Maps were pretty much neck-and-neck for several months last year, but comScore says Google Maps usage saw a significant decline after Apple dumped it from iOS and replaced it with its own maps app:
Apple's decision to replace Google Maps with Apple Maps on iOS 6 also caused a decline in Google Maps usage in October, which is largely responsible for the position swap. Meanwhile, Google Maps has been clawing its way back the past few months after getting reinstated on iOS 6, so look for the competition for the #1 spot to heat up as we head into 2013.
Here's comScore's look at the race in 2012 between Google Maps and Facebook.
In addition to being the most popular app in the U.S., comScore also says Facebook also leads in share of time spent. Facebook accounts for 23 percent of time spent using apps. Several apps are a distant second — Instagram, Gmail, Google Maps and YouTube all have three percent of time spent or less.
Onavo released its own look at mobile app popularity in the U.S. today, taking a slightly different approach to comScore and focusing specifically on several Google-owned apps.
Onavo says the Google Maps app ended 2012 with almost 30 percent "market share" in the U.S., which I take to mean it's been downloaded by that percent of smartphone users — or perhaps just iOS users. (It's not clear.)

� Christine Till Bodie, in the Sierra Nevada near the Nevada state line, is California's best preserved ghost town, and probably the best preserved ghost town in the United States. The elevation is quite high so access is only possible during the summer months. It is a complete town with old stores, homes, a church, school, hotel, bank, saloons, gymnasium, club, and many mining buildings, all in a state of "arrested decay". Try to picture what it was like when the buildings were still occupied and what life was like! Peoples' struggles; hard work. The climate is harsh, the ground hard. No power; no a/c; no hospital. And Bodie was certainly not a peaceful place. The harsh reality of the peoples' life is evident everywhere. The cemetery is...

D.E. Shaw Group's energy chief is leaving the firm after a brutal December.
Jeff Myers will retire at the end of March, The Wall Street Journal reports. His decision to leave after 12 years at the New York-based hedge fund came on Jan. 22, following an 18% loss for his group's Plasma hedge fund.
The $650 million energy fund lost 28% overall last year, and was on track for a losing January, as well.
Myers will be succeeded by two of his lieutenants, Sanjay Jacob and Travis West. Jacob, a former Citadel Investment Group trader, will be senior portfolio manager, based in Overland Park, Kan. West, formerly of power-plant operator Mirant Corp., will handle day-to-day management of Myers' 12-person team from New York.
"We will be sorry to see Jeff retire," Darcy Bradbury, a spokeswoman for D.E. Shaw, told the Journal. "Jeff has managed the unit very successfully over the years, with the team delivering strong long-term performance for our investors."

Chick-fil-A Founder S. Truett Cathy Dies at 93
Chick-fil-A's founder S. Truett Cathy has died at the age of 93.
Chick-fil-A's founder S. Truett Cathy has died at the age of 93.
Chick-fil-A's famous chicken sandwiches will still be breaded and fried, but soon they won't come with antibiotics. On Tuesday, Chick-fil-A, the privately held food chain based in Atlanta,announced that it intends to serve chicken "raised without antibiotics" at all its restaurants within five years. It sounds like a clear-cut promise. The history of such vows, though, isn't so simple.
Etiquette for Facebook postings generally follows the rules of conversation: Religion and politics are a no-no, so keep to neutral topics. However, a new survey from the Pew Internet & American Life Project makes a case that your political status update may actually change some minds, particularly if the reader is liberal. The researcher surveyed 2,253 U.S. adults from Jan. 20 to Feb. 19 and found that Democrats are more likely than Republicans and independents to get their news from social media.
"Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day," held on Wednesday, was set up by former Senator Rick Santorum and Governor Mike Huckabee as a nationwide rally to defend the company's president Dan Cathy after he spoke out last month against gay marriage. Cathy's comments sparked a multi-faceted debate over gay rights, religion, free speech and business.
Are you waiting for KFC to weigh in on the Chick-fil-A same-sex marriage controversy? Well, keep waiting, but in the meantime enjoy this very unauthorized Funny or Die re-imagining of KFC mascot Colonel Sanders' take on the issue. Here, Sanders (John Goodman) is presented as quite gay-friendly.
Don Perry, head spokesman for fast-food chain Chick-fil-A died "suddenly" Friday morning, the company confirmed Friday. Perry has been with the Atlanta-based company for 29 years, last holding the position of VP of public relations, a Chick-fil-A spokesperson wrote in an e-mail to Mashable. The spokesperson was unable to comment on the cause of death.
As if Chick-fil-A needed another public relations headache, it's become the target of a new paordy site created in protest of company president and COO Dan Cathy's opposition to gay marriage. The Chick-fil-A Foundation is a website cleverly designed to mimic the real Chick-fil-A site, except it's full of satirical content that defends Cathy's comments and calls on gay people to renounce their homosexuality.
Amazon CEO and founder Jeff Bezos has made a high-profile endorsement of same-sex marriage, pledging $2.5 million to support a referendum that would make such marriages legal in Washington state.
