The Galaxy Nexus
Have any of you seen Samsung's new Galaxy Nexus, with google's no android operating system? It only came out a week ago in the states, but the screen is much bigger than the iPhone, it runs in 4G LTE, and it is thinner and lighter, and androids new Ice Cream Sandwich operating system rivals iOS5. The only down side is the 5 megapixel camera. I've spent some time with it, and honestly have come to prefer it to the iPhone. Any of you had experiences with the Galaxy Nexus?
Way too big. Still nowhere near as fluid as iOS. And until LTE offers as much coverage as 3G, all it is, is a battery drain.

I find the screen size to be just right, with the iPhone 4 screen being too small. After spending a few minutes with it, I thought the OS was just as smooth as iOS 5. And the 4G coverage has been blazing fast wherever I go (however I do stay in the northeast). I think it all comes down to a matter of opinion (except for the camera being worse than the 4s).
Just depends. If I was on verizon and in an LTE area, i'd consider it. But i'm not and so i don't.
I liked it a lot....I can barely use it one handed, I have 4g where I live and work(Daytona/Orlando) and its very fast......but I prefer my 4s honestly. But I hope a slightly larger screen is in the iPhone's future though. I will still get one if there is a penny sale on amazon......I'm a junkie like that lol.
I picked the Galaxy Nexus up when it first came out to check out ICS. Used it for a weekend and then returned it, the overall polish and navigation of the device was too involved in comparison to my 4S. The screen real estate was nice, but for me with average sized hands it was a two handed device for sure. Overall, it still feels like its lagging behind in consistency and ease of use in comparison to my iPhone, just my $0.02.
Guys I own both the 4S and Galaxy Nexus, the 4S being my primary phone.
Tbh ICS needs a little tweaking before it can get to the fluid experience that iOS offers. To me, Android is all about customisation. If you like to change the stock appearance/functions of your OS, then Android is the way to go but if simplicity is all you looking for then nothing can beat iOS.
My $0.02 -
I'm considering both phones. My current phone is an HTC Incredible, which I really like. My wife and stepson just got iPhones and they like them a lot (both had androids). What I like about the Nexus is indeed that big beautiful screen. I don't live in a 4G area don't care about that. I do like my current batch of android apps and Launcher Pro. I have an iMac so OSX is no stanger to me either. I'm gonna give the Big Dog a whirl and see how is shakes out. I get 2 weeks to see. I hear Apple people praising the fluid experience of OSX and stuff like that but I see that as pretty vague tbh. MPSHAH what do you like specifically better about the GN over the iPhone since you have both? Just curious. Not many persons on this and the android forum have had both of these phones.

Bumping this thread up. I got the Galaxy Nexus 2 weeks ago. So far it's everything I expected. Some highlights: the screen is GREAT. Even using the auto brightness setting I can see it in sunlight like I never could my Dinc. The size is what I bought it for and I like it. I make fewer typing mistakes (but I don't think the keyboard is that much bigger). Reading anything is way better. The ICS operating system rocks. I really like it, and it didn't take long to get the hand of it compared to Gingerbread. It it logical and being an Apple Fanboy (iMac, iTouch, Apple TV, iPod, iPad, wife with 4S) the similarities between this and OSX are why Steve Jobs was suing Google (they still are). Battery and signal strength are the same as my Dinc (I don't get 4G here). The screen use is a higher % of battery use but by the end of the day I'm 50% or more. I made it a day and a half once, and I used GPS several times. Camera is fine, it's a cellphone camera after all. There's a panoramic setting. I haven't used the video yet. The photo gallery is a copy of iPhoto and there's an easy photo fix feature too (sue 'em some more!). If there's a downside it's that the phone is bigger, and people who txt with one hand (stepson) probably won't be able to. I'm glad I got it, it was $250 for 32gb (the card is internal, not SD) with my discount with Vzn. Any questions I'll be happy to answer.
I've tried three separate times to like that phone and kept coming back to the 4s...first one, the battery life was horrendous...second one, i got a car charger so the battery wasn't as much of a big deal but having no signal at all when my wife's old blackberry tour had full bars was a joke...third one i returned today because every single time I tried to use it there would be no data connection unless I rebooted. Back to the iPhone and that's where I'll stay until possibly the next generation of android...unless the next iPhone is what I hope it will be. My opinion, if you must get a smartphone other than an iPhone on Verizon then get the razr maxx...
I would wait for the iPhone 5. It should have 4g LTE speeds and hopefully a slightly larger screen. If you have to have a phone right now, then I would pick the Galaxy Note > iPhone 4s because you will have to wait 2 more years before your next upgrade and staying on 3g with such a small screen for that long will be hard.
I currently own a white 16 gig iphone 4s and a galaxy nexus. (I returned the Note because it was too large) - 04-16-2012, 09:54 AM #16
I use a 4S but if I was to switch back to Android I would get the Nexus:
- It will get timely OS updates unlike other android phones
- It doesn't have a manufacturer's crap skin over android, do its faster and more stable than other android phones
- Hi res display is still pentile, but at 720 its almost as good as the 4S
- File system (MTP I think) allows use of all 32GB for apps or data (like the iPhone)
- Swappable battery - 04-16-2012, 09:56 AM #17
Good point. I'm no longer a fan of Android but hate to bash what is probably the best of them.
- Apps are still not as good as iPhone. In my most recent experience with a Droid X2 last week, there is no Flipboard, Zite is not as good (mostly a front end for the web), DirecTV app is a joke, MOG app has limited functionality, Slacker is unstable, Path can't upload video, Fitbit doesn't even work offline, etc...
- The GPS on Moto Droids is flaky a requires frequent battery pulls. I have heard Samsung GPS has had problems as well
- Poor battery life. I get 2 days on my 4S and only 12 hours on a Droid X2 without LTE. The Nexus is even worse.
- Cheap construction
- Pentile matrix screen
- Awkward to hold and type one-handed - 04-19-2012, 03:18 PM #19
I recently switched from my 4s and im a bit disappointed. While i appreciate the screen size, the battery life is poor and ive tried several kernels. Ive also tried quite a few radio combos but i constantly lose 3g/4g....but i got the phone used so i could have a defective model.
Ill keep playing with it until i find another 4s trade lol

"Give me what I want and I'll go away," demands the black-eyed, stocking-capped stranger Linoge (Colm Feore), who appears in a quiet island community on the verge of the worst storm in decades and brutally bludgeons an old lady to death. Tim Daly, the town sheriff and voice of reason and moral strength, locks up the quiet madman, but the deaths pile up as Linoge acts them out from his cell like a murderous mime pulling psychic strings.

Grey's Anatomy's Jessica Capshaw Is the Stepdaughter of Which Hollywood Director?
Jessica Capshaw is a star in her own right — as the actress behind beloved Grey's Anatomy character Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw) — but she also has serious Hollywood pedigree. She's the daughter of a famous actress, Kate Capshaw, who married an even more famous Hollywood director. So who's her celebrity parents? That's the question we asked Viggle LIVE! users during the Arizona-centric March 13 episode of Grey's. Nearly half of you — 49 percent, to be exact — got the answer right! Jessica is the stepdaughter of Steven Spielberg, the Academy Award-winning director of such movies as Lincoln, Jurassic Park, Jaws, Schindler's List, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial… the list goes on and on. Meanwhile, 32 percent guessed Avatar director James Cameron and 19 percent hazarded Wolf of Wall Street helmer Martin Scorsese.
Kate met Steven when she auditioned for the leading lady role in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. They married in 1991. Jessica has even acted in two of Steven's projects — 2002's Minority Report, which he directed, and 2005's Into the West, which he executive-produced.
Jessica was actually born before Kate was famous — when she was still living in Missouri and married to Robert Capshaw, Jessica's biological dad, whom Kate divorced in 1980.

You may have heard a lot of talk about Idaho recently, and it's no small potatoes. Idaho's governor, C.L. "Butch" Otter, recently signed into law a controversial anti-whistleblower "ag-gag" bill that punishes those who expose abusive conditions on factory farms. Though Governor Otter claims this law will keep agriculture producers "secure in their property," we, and countless others concerned about the welfare of animals, are extremely concerned about the greater implications of ag-gag.
In passing this bill, Idaho became the seventh state to enact an ag-gag law. By effectively closing out journalists, investigators, and even the general public from animal production facilities, the agribusiness industry can continue to keep consumers in the dark about where their food is coming from.
We have seen countless instances of abuse on industrial farms, including the recent case of a Wisconsin dairy farm that produces cheese for the frozen pizza brand DiGiorno. Undercover footage taken by Mercy For Animals caught workers at this farm viciously kicking, stabbing, beating, and dragging cows, and the footage led to 11 charges of criminal animal cruelty. Without such footage, we may never have known of these horrors, and because of ag-gag laws, we may never learn of countless other, similar instances.
Sadly, these bills are popping up everywhere, and we're up against a mighty opponent. We, and the animals, need your help to make sure that no more of these bills, or any others that imperil the lives of animals, pass into law.
For the animals, for the safety of our nation's food supply, and for the health of you and your family, please stand with us today.
I can't believe there's a law to protect abusers of animals. What? Is there a law to protect child abusers too? Anyone who abuses innocents needs to be prosecuted (and when they die they need to go straight to hades).
well, consider the facts here Pam. Think of all the innocent unborn children who are aborted and killed in their mom's womb's.
And think of all the innocent defenseless dogs and cats which are forced to be sterilized when they're young puppies or kittens too.
I don't like how this country is treating innocent citizens or innocent animals at all anymore. They're being abusive to defenseless kids and animals and they think it's "fine"!
What's so fine about it? To think they wanted us to start killing Horses, when they were our main transportation for several centuries isn't fair at all, in my opinion.
Meanwhile, though, they're sticking up for deer who are actually causing Deaths of many people and can cause deaths of animals with Lyme Disease, which the Deer often carry that Disease.
I do think they need to start hunting Deer a lot more than they're doing now. The deer often run into people's yard, eat all their gardens, vegetables, run across the streets and run into cars also.
If you driving your car with your dog inside it, or your cat, and a Deer runs into your car, your animals could easily be killed because deer are dangerous animals to have run into someone's vehicle, even into truck.
It is quite obvious that the world population has almost no say in what happens with the food we need to survive, the energy we need to use, the economic reality most of us live with. There are pockets all over the world that are allowing the senseless and cruel treatment of animals for all reasons that are criminal. From poachers killing elephants and rhinos to get money, sold to religious zealots to make money from the buyers in Asia to pay for their "war", to the endless and reckless building of palm oil plantations to the extinction of the orangutan and tropical rainforest biodiversity, to the clubbing and poisoning of dogs worldlwide, the reckless killings of whales, tuna and sharks for the endless Asian appetites, the eating of horse, dog, cat, the "farming" of wild fur-bearing animals for their skin for a fur coat, the stupid and irresponsible trapping of the wildlife of the world while trying to kill "predators" (to the detriment of wildlife biodiversity), the battery cages forcing pigs to live in misery for 5 years, unable to move or even be alive. I could go on with examples. I'm disgusted with everyone slinging names back and forth. This is an INTERNATIONAL CHALLENGE TO CHANGE THE LACKING MORAL, SPIRITUAL AND PERSONAL CONDUCT OF INDIVIDUALS, CORPORATIONS AND POLITICALLY POWERFUL CRIMINALS!!! Please, remember this is about the voiceless. These animals - ALL OF THEM - have souls, inner light and a right to live without being treated like rows of corn we harvest. Take your demands to the voting booth, the streets and right into the movement to change the way the world treats the animals who share this planet with us.
along with dumbing down of our kids, thanks to public mal-education, it seems we have grown more and more barbaric, allowing the rednecks to run loose, annihilating critical species in the wild and finding pleasure in the torture of slaughter houses...
Idaho Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter obviously caved to the special interests groups involved and the big money they threw at him. He is after all, a rancher who only sees $ when he looks at an animal. Hopefully, this will be Otter's last term as governor after signing this ridiculous bill into law. Seven states now have MORANS as Governors! SHAME on you all, and, hopefully, you will all be looking for new jobs when your terms are up in your states. Unlike you POWERFUL POLITICIANS, and FACTORY FARMERS, animals have NO choice and NO voice. May the animal lovers in this country bring both you politicians and factory farmers down and out!
Just stop eating meat! It is that simple. If you eat meat you are part of the problem. We eat WAY too much meat every meal every day. What do think these farms will do? Stop shopping at Costco!
Let's vote with our wallet to protect the innocent animals and punish the sick +greedy people and their puppet politicians: stop buying Idaho potatoes and any of their food products: let's hit them in the pocket, the only thing they care about!
I sign all the petitions and email our senators, but equally strong message is to boycott Idaho products. I will
It is hard to believe that elected officials will put their stamp of approval on cruelties inflicted on farmed animals. We as Americans or just good citizens have the right to
report on any type of cruelties going on each and everyday. It is our bounden duty and I would never adhere to that law. Imagine a cruelty law being passed in the United States of America. Who are those people? They are obviously void of a conscience. Maybe their wallets are being fattened up and it is clouding their better judgement. You think......! Keep up the fight against cruelties. Fight for those who are helpless!!!!!
It is an unspeakable act of cowardice and self-interest to pass these laws. I am willing to boycott any and all products produced in any way from states with ag-gag laws. There is nothing I need badly enough that an alternative from a state that defeated its ag-gag laws won't suffice. And if no alternative, do not need period. It would be great to know how to avoid products from these states.
As long as humans eat animals, the abuse will never end! In addition, the USDA is NOT here to protect consumers. That is a misconception that Americans have. The USDA was created to promote the meat and dairy industry, and help them sell more of their product. I gave up almost all animal products at the beginning of 2013 and have never been healthier or had more energy in my life. If consumers demand it, Big Ag will supply it in the cheapest, fastest way possible, which means that animals will forever be treated as a "commodity", not as living, feeling creatures! And they will be stuffed with inexpensive GMO grains that end up giving all of us cancer and other diseases!

Re: Offshore bluewater cruising - what sailboat would be best?
I thought that might be what you were saying.
I remember reading about a couple who went out with the plan to spend a year or more just sailing, no destination. I don't think it ended well.....
AND, they had a large boat.
We looked at the wetsnail 28 before we went with the Nor'Sea. We liked the layout in the Nor'Sea better. BOTH would work!
We know what you are saying about STUFF! We still have a lot of stuff. Things we just could not part with, like 2 motorcycles, antiques and photos. We had it in one of those pack it yourself portable storage boxes. We paid for the storage by the year and got a good deal. Had to think outside the box to make it happen...
Makes sense to me. And I agree, I am not fond of the wetsnail layout just there reputation for surviving everything out there. Nor sea?/...never seen one in person got to check em out. Thanks Greg.
For one the bigger the boat the harder to control short handed. Now this is assuming that the vessel is capable of the task she has been assigned, The point being a large bluewater boat is a serious handful single handed in a storm. While I have zero experience with sailboats I do have copious small boat experience up to 42 feet and the bigger they are the more work they are. I have a little less than 18 foot tin boat custom built for me by Wooldridge boats, the people that invented jet outboards, that has proven to be simply amazing. Up until this boat I would under no conditions have ever went offshore in anything under 27 feet. I have used that little guy to cross the bar at Winchester bay and coos bay Oregon many many times in the two years since she was born. I guess if one has the skill, experience, and desire he can beat the odds more often than not
....I must admit though size is nice in open water.

This paper investigates the feasibility of using neural network (NN) and late gamma band (LGB) electroencephalogram (EEG) features extracted from the brain to identify the individuality of subjects. The EEG signals were recorded using 61 active electrodes located on the scalp while the subjects perceived a single picture. LGB EEG signals occur with jittering latency of above 280 ms and are not time-locked to the triggering stimuli. Therefore, LGB EEG could only be computed from single trials of EEG signals and the common method of averaging across trials to remove undesired background EEG (i.e. noise) is not possible. Here, principal component analysis has been used to extract single trials of EEG signals. Zero phase Butterworth filter and Parseval's time-frequency equivalence theorem were used to compute the LGB EEG features. These features were then classified by backpropagation and simplified fuzzy ARTMAP NNs into different categories that represent the individuality of the subjects. The results using a tenfold cross validation scheme gave a maximum classification of 97.33% when tested on 800 unseen LGB EEG features from 40 subjects. This pilot investigation showed that the method of identifying the individuality of subjects using NN classification of LGB EEG features is worth further study.

Nutrition for baby's first 1000 days
The first 1000 days, from conception until two years, are the most crucial for a baby's development. more
Sweet potato is a tuber type vegetable which is actually not a potato at all. It is vegetable grown on a sprawling vine called a morning glory. Sometimes known as the Kumera, it is a very popular vegetable in the South Pacific area having been adopted into the cuisines of Melanesians, Maoris and Polynesians. Sweet potatoes are now readily available in Australia and are often used in roast dinners, soups and stews. Its bright colours give away its high nutritional value and it may be used in sweet and savoury dishes alike.
Sweet potatoes are sold as colours rather than varieties and may come in deep orange, white purple or red.
Sweet potatoes are available year round in Australia but are in season during May, June and July. When selecting you need to choose sweet potatoes that are well formed, have smooth skin and are uniform in colour. To store sweet potatoes you need to keep them in a cool, dark place. Do not store in the refrigerator.
You can use sweet potato pretty much as a replacement in any recipe that contains potatoes or pumpkin whether it is sweet or savoury.
You may peel and remove the ends of your sweet potato but you can also leave the skin on as it is edible. Cut into same sized pieces and steam or boil until soft. This will take around 8-10 mins.
I like to use gloves when peeling and cutting sweet potato as they give off a milky sap from the cut flesh.
