Wow! Now you can launch Siri and tell it to launch an app for you instead of doing it yourself in half the time. And as far as #18 goes it sounds like Apple has just invented Instapaper.

But then, why is it that Apple always releases "200" features all d tym n we only get to kno about 15 to 30 of all those 200 features, something don sound ryt. And will i have Siri guiding me on my iPhone 4 or it will only b on iPhone 4S?

It's just marketing. Android 4.0.4 had "a few hundred" updates over 4.0.3, but Google doesn't have the same marketing team that Apple does.
117. CharlieAtInfinity (Posts: 253; Member since: 10 Apr 2012)
Exactly Michael, Apple's marketing is just BRILLIANT!!!
the way they show off the new features just gets the attention of new buyers even though that same feature might be present on their current phone :)
161. ChiX017 (Posts: 308; Member since: 09 Nov 2011)
Yup! Just imagine they introduce wireless charging & a Pureview Camera tech?
That would get people bed wetting!!
189. c.hack (Posts: 609; Member since: 09 Dec 2009)
Except 99% of those update were desparate attempts to keep Android from constantly crashing. I've yet to see a worthwhile update in ICS.
For that matter 90% of Android users still can't get the 1-year old ICS OS - pathetic Google, pathetic.

actually, I'm installing it on my G-Slate as we speak. I've had it on my SGS1 since december.
I fail to see your point other than your a troll.. with no point.
96. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
because every little bug fix to them is a "feature". every new sentence in Siri is a new "feature".
its tons of hype with no substance. Thats what Apple has always been good at. Giving people tons of Sizzle even when there is no steak to be found. Android is all steak, but very little sizzle. With apple is all "close your eyes and immagine the flame touching the rib eye, while the pepper and garlic roast under the flame".. Thats why its "magical". You open your eyes and its gone. With Google its. "yo, here is this big juicy steak and tons of spices. go do something with it". Its not as "magical", but u will be full when your done.

you guys are just pissed because the iPhone works everyday and android is glitchy at its finest. Not to mention you only have one device that isnt ruined, the Galaxy Nexus. Enjoy your crappy manufacture and carrier overlays.
110. xtian1103 (Posts: 363; Member since: 11 Feb 2012)
dude, even the galaxy nexus is a crappy device admittedly by those who own it. sometimes i really wonder how long will it take for android to realize that they have to reconstruct the os as a whole and not only an asphalt patchwork every time their devices lag. do they always have to release a project butter every os upgrade?
119. wackypandas (Posts: 7; Member since: 10 Sep 2012)
definitely not me. galaxy nexus with jellybean is not crappy at all :) oh and to your project butter joke well which OS doesn't want to improve their smoothness?!
149. infinitemethod (Posts: 149; Member since: 04 Sep 2012)
I have the Nexus. It's awesome. Have never had a problem. Nice try though.
130. darkkjedii (Posts: 21201; Member since: 05 Feb 2011)
Uh ohhhh a fellow apple user is fighting back. I like that lol. I think ios6, and the new iPhone will b great. Android fans don't, but hey it's not their cup of tea anyway.
143. structureman116 (Posts: 139; Member since: 14 Sep 2010)
I've never had an issue with my Galaxy Nexus...My wife has returned to the Apple store twice with her criphone to have them tell her, we don't know why its doing that, reset it and see if that fixes it. You can have your [r@pple any day of the week...I will stick with a superior OS like Android!
156. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
you sir is lying. say what you want about Apple. but their customer service is award winning..
160. structureman116 (Posts: 139; Member since: 14 Sep 2010)
Nah...I have no reason to lie gallitoqueen...Twice we were at an Apple store and twice all they could tell her to do is reset her phone because they could not figure out why it was having issues. And if you had any sense, you would have read comment #102, which my post was in response to you moron. It goes to show that [r@pple phones are not flawless. They have issues just like every other software, and in my case, more often than my GNex. Open your eyes and stop being a Lemming!
163. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
so why the name calling ... I had the opposite with Android.. but instead of posting it in a forum avery chance I get. I just move to a different OS, one for adults and works out of the box not the kiddie Android that you need to tweak for it to work
203. AndroidShiz (Posts: 154; Member since: 08 Nov 2011)
And jail breaking is so popular why?

No I'm not pissed. My Nokia N8 has voice commands build in that launch apps since I got in 2010. There's nothing new at all. It has 3D maps build in since I got it. It also has 3D buildings and satellite view (which requires an internet connection and is therefore useless when actually driving).
It can even plan a route through the agenda and addressbook (when an adress is added to a contact or a location is typed with the agenda subject).
Again I fail to see what's so special, especially since you STILL can't beam a photo, ringtone, app or other file to any other bluetooth enabled phone (the same with WP7/8 for that matter).
Responding to a call with an sms? Oh Dear so passée! My phone automatically responds to callers with SMS between selfprogrammed hours, switches of most radios, go to power saving mode and activates the silent profile. In the morning (at a programmed hour) the phone automatically goes into generic profile, disables power saving mode and activates all the radios.
I can even program it to do particular stuff on locations (either using celltower positioning or GPS). That's a smartphone.
Oh did I mention that it also automatically records ALL calls even when made using a bluetooth carkit or headset? Very convenient while driving since most countries today ban calling while driving.
With Apple it is STILL only superficial crap that's being hyped up.
Nah, I´m not pissed, I'm disgusted that I still can't buy a true replacement to my smart phone. And it only gets worse. Even Nokia is making that crippled crap now.
198. iami67 (Posts: 318; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
I beg to differ. I work for a major carrier and have way more iphones come in with glitches and not working correctly or broken screens. And no its not because there are more iphone out there. This past yr alone android was over 60 percent of smart phone sales. Apple was only 35. So keep trolling
104. keerthisaj (Posts: 1; Member since: 14 Jun 2012)
Dude, Wat r u talking thats all non sense,
Iphone they develop a feature lik siri where no other market leaders wer unable to release something lik that and u f**king call it as marketing.
thats bulls**t, i am a Iphone user and will remain the same.
109. sats.mine2k4 (banned) (Posts: 208; Member since: 10 Aug 2012)
Google voice has been on android since 2009( android 2.0). Please stick to your iphone we don't want dumb in our android camp..
Siri is NOT a Gimmick only for the people who are like "frog in pond"... or better called isheeep...
131. moofoodooloo (Posts: 137; Member since: 04 Jan 2011)
Trust me, I'm in the business..
THE DUMBEST of consumers are in the "android camp".
136. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
yea.. not gonna trust you on that. even the national surveys say your wrong. Oh yea.. and there is my own long stint in the business as well to let ya know your wrong.
There are dumb consumers with every OS. But if your truley dumb and need it as simple as you can get, iOS is the answer. No control, few options, its all done for ya.
168. epdm2be (Posts: 487; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
@ remixfa: Actually you're right.
"But if your truley dumb and need it as simple as you can get, iOS is the answer. No control, few options, its all done for ya."
... and since there are more stupid people in the world than smart people....
Rest my case. :-)
144. structureman116 (Posts: 139; Member since: 14 Sep 2010)
In the business of what? Lacking common sense?
200. iami67 (Posts: 318; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
instead of just making a foolish comment can you please say something with facts
202. sats.mine2k4 (banned) (Posts: 208; Member since: 10 Aug 2012)
Well apparently, your not in the "Android Camp" so i choose not to trust you...
127. blazee (Posts: 407; Member since: 02 Jan 2012)
@keerthiaj apple didn't come up w siri they bought off from a third party from the app store. And google voice was out way before siri was developed. Also im pretty sure google voice on android 4.1 has all of these new siri fearures.
135. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
and still quite a few more.
157. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
google voice was crap and nobody ever used as it could never understand you. please dont compare it to Siri..
Google Voice is no more they changed the name and is a Siri like feauture..
201. iami67 (Posts: 318; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
PLease people instead of silly comments please give me facts. Why is google voice crap. Apple loved it enough to rip off a small third party company. Amnd what people didnt use it. I sell phones and pitched google voice to every customer they loved how easy it was to text play music get directions. Maybe you have a speech impediment and no one can understand you. in that case im sorry.
167. epdm2be (Posts: 487; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
Voice commands have been available since Windows Mobile 2003 on Microsoft's smartphone OS back then. It could do a lot more besides voice dailing including starting up apps.
In fact I've used voice dialing on old featurephones (which is the most usefull part of using voice activated commands ON A PHONE!) since ages.
And suddenly Apple makes it sound as if it is so speciall! Why? Because it use 'the cloud'... oh yeah... that's definitely what we've all been waiting for.
188. CRICKETownz (Posts: 980; Member since: 24 Oct 2009)
first of all, bringing up voice command on a feature phone shows the stupidity of people who like to disagree just to disagree. second, Windows Mobile 2003 sucked in general so i think voice command should be the least of a conversation brought up concerning that train wreck of an OS. back in 2009 when Motorola launched its droid line that was the beginning of a maturation of voice command (yes i know the G1 was out before that...but that phone was pathetic) but it was primarily search-based in its orientation. It improved to launch apps, etc. but Siri took voice command a step further into offering more of a interpretation-based factor to voice command. No idea is original...not even good ideas, they are just improved upon versions of previous ideas which is with every technology out there. so are cars nowadays lackluster b/c they aren't the very first car? what about televisions? the hypocrisy & level of ridiculous comments made against anything that Apple does is criminal.
199. iami67 (Posts: 318; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
Your obviously an iphone user. Siri or vlingo or a thousand other names i can call it has been out for about 6 yrs. try again.
208. hengnarath (Posts: 14; Member since: 26 Aug 2012)
Oh don't you know that this feature has been used in China for long and a chinese company is suing iPhone over SIRI feature. iPhone develops it? Think again.

150. Teejay1100 (Posts: 115; Member since: 16 Aug 2012)
Very well said, and you are exactly true!! This is what people don't see or understand about how both companies do it.
155. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
why do you care what Apple is. you are not a consumer. are you?
187. CRICKETownz (Posts: 980; Member since: 24 Oct 2009)
well said for someone who is a fan of Android, but unfortunately it all comes down to personal preference as far as which OS has "steak or sizzle". its obvious what OS you support (which i'm sure for reasons that are important to you) but what i despise about Android loyalists is the mentality that you are not allowed to like iOS without being considered incompetent. all of the hardware/software features Android packs under the hood doesn't automatically equal better. Android users don't get that more doesn't mean better...its just more features. but the other side is that if the majority of those features aren't a make-or-break for someone, then can it really be labeled as better? each person's definition of "more" changes shapes based on the individual. The basis of why Android is better is always rooted in latest technology vs. Apple's passe approach. each statement you've made is based on something that you like & prefer. someone who drinks Pepsi isn't gonna praise Coca-Cola. reading the biased opinions of Android fans over & over (which saturate this PA relentlessly) gets kinda stale & less credible every time i read those types of comments.
182. ajerseyjr (Posts: 10; Member since: 10 Sep 2012)
I Wish They Remove The Notification Bar Cause Android Created That Bar And The Facebook Integration of Pictures Sony Is The First To Created That Feature. Please Apple Create a better innovation for your iOS not copying ideas from other OS and Companies.
94. s.mrabet (Posts: 124; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
200 new features!!!!
1. siri knows sports
2. siri knows restaurants
3. siri knows movies
4. siri launches apps!! wow
I guess all 200 features are the same app....
99. Raymond_htc (Posts: 430; Member since: 06 Apr 2012)
Haha! Whats the 200th feature? Siri knows how to switch off the iPhone?!
108. sats.mine2k4 (banned) (Posts: 208; Member since: 10 Aug 2012)
The 200th feature is "Siri knows Android is better"... the best of em all rite?
169. epdm2be (Posts: 487; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
Hey, stop laughing at it!
Soon Siri can tell you your future.
That'll put the entire astrology, tarrot-, tea leaf- and handpalm-readers out of business.
And when the awesomely smart Apple engineers figure out how to combine the facetime code with Siri, they it'll predict when you die! By analyzing your face and voice!
Food for the next croonenberg, Sam raimi or Wes Craven horror flick :-)
120. phljcnth (Posts: 485; Member since: 30 Apr 2012)
The only major change in Siri is that it can wash the dishes now.
123. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
it still wants to show you pictures of stallions though. but now it can find the stallions on the map.. :)
214. epdm2be (Posts: 487; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
unfortunately not for the +62 milion residents in france or the 28 milion residents in the Benelux.
In the non english speaking parts of europe (read: the majority) SIRI is completely useless!
Not to mention baseball is NOT the most popular sport in Europe. I wonder if SIRI knows if "Anderlecht" won against "Club Brugge" last week?
215. epdm2be (Posts: 487; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
Oops it seems that SIRI should be able to understand French.
Unfortunatly SIRI is useless for the +20million Dutch speaking residents in Belgium and the Netherlands. Not to mention that these are the most expensive countries to get an iPhone (especially Belgium with its ridiculously high tax-rate). Potential iPhone-customers there pay a large sum for improvements which are completely useless to them.
Well, I can only say to any Belgians or dutchmen, how stupid are you to buy an iPhone if most o/t enhancements made are a complete wast for you.
A similar situation excists in Rusia (and whole bunch of other languages) because rusian is not in SIRI's portfolio.
128. pimix2009 (Posts: 9; Member since: 26 Aug 2009)
I think they should call their 200 features " Siri know to count to 200" cuz thats all there is to it.
138. Commentator (Posts: 3684; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
The first 13 on this list could have been consolidated into 3 points...
151. Teejay1100 (Posts: 115; Member since: 16 Aug 2012)
Yup thats exactly Apple's strategy. A bunch of nothing
121. desijatt (Posts: 58; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
Real Change log:
1.Siri add ons,
2.Facebook integration
3.new maps with navigation
4.What Android already have
193. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3751; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
From how i look at it, number 1-4 is all about Siri. Siri can do this, Siri can do that...you might as well sum all of them up in one and make room for other tweaks that can be mentioned!!
197. iami67 (Posts: 318; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
Serious with this. Android has been able to launch apps by talking to it for a few years now. this is def not a instapaper. old news apple
2. jamrockjones (Posts: 345; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
A lot of those features were already available on Android. Now who is copying who?!
6. QinEmpire (Posts: 145; Member since: 16 May 2012)
wait wait.. facebook integration in Android == packing Android app from Google play as bloatware..
now who is copying who?
10. wassup (Posts: 565; Member since: 23 Jun 2011)
dude, do you have an extra chromosome?
my SGS1, which came out 2 years ago, had those features, without even installing the Facebook app.
Dude, just go f**k yourself, admit it, iOS is ripping off more from Android than Android did from iOS!

The Economy and the Blues
Texas singer-songwriter Townes van Zandt once told Emmy Lou Harris that there were only two kinds of music: the blues and zippity do da. To my knowledge he never posited a causal relationship running from too much of the latter to the former. But, as Billy Joe Shaver puts it so well, we're leaning toward the blues these days. Popular culture seems to buy the causal relationship since they apparently believe high pay and high living among some groups are responsible for it all and are determined to bring down the Temple. I'm not so sure.
I've always preferred to wallow in country music when I was blue…
…beginning in the 1950s when unrequited puppy love was responsible for my almost wearing out Hank Williams' record, Lovesick Blues, on the juke box at my Dad's Truck Stop. It's never been improved upon for a good pity party. Fortunately, living in Texas, I don't have to choose between the Blues and Country, because they amount to about the same thing in Texas. Texas Country is more bluesy and has less twang than, say, Nashville Country. If you want just a hint of country in your blues, try Delbert McClinton.
You can get solace from country, but not much useful advice. As Kenny Rogers taught us, you've got to know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em. Well, okay, so when do you hold 'em and when do you fold 'em? One thing I know is that I held them too long during the great 401K meltdown. I held on all the way down, like Slim Pickens riding the bomb down in Dr. Strangelove. Billy Joe said let me down easy Lord, and leave a mark in the dust where I lay.
Fortunately, living in Frisco, Texas, I can some day write some blues without having to change my address. The Frisco Blues sounds pretty good, almost as good as the Fort Worth Blues. You just couldn't write the Plano Blues or even the Dallas Blues. I don't know why; you just can't.
I'm tired and weary, and have some country blues tonight myself. So, instead of my doing all the work for you, if interested, you can go to YouTube and relive Hank Williams, especially "Lovesick Blues." And, if you're not from Texas, you might check out Delbert McClinton ("When Rita Leaves, Rita's Gone"), Billy Joe Shaver (I've Been to Georgia on a Fast Train and many others), and The Flatlanders: Butch Hancock, Billy Dale Gilmore, and Joe Ely. Try to find one or more of them doing "Dallas From a DC-9 at Night." It's not blues, of course, but it's a good song.
Enjoy your week-end. The stock market is closed.

Kim Kardashian's Romantic Italian Birthday Weekend With Kanye West
Happy Birthday to Kim Kardashian! The reality diva turned 32 on Sunday (October 21) and she's chosen to celebrate in Italy with her man, Kanye West.
Keeping her 16 million Twitter followers informed, the E! reality royalty tweeted, "Italy is so beautiful! Best birthday ever!!! I got whisked away to Rome for a birthday week surprise!"
Bringing along his camera, the "Monster" hitmaker took his white hot girlfriend for sunset walk after having dinner at The Grand Canal Restaurant.
The romantic meal was followed by a mini shopping spree, with West at one point buying some flowers for the birthday girl.
Meanwhile, rumors are swirling that Yeezy might take this romantic getaway opportunity to pop the question to his gal.
Ryan Seacrest, who serves as an executive producer on "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" hinted on his radio show that "we could definitely see an update on this story on Monday."

Proper manners are important in society. It really wouldn't have been any harder for the exchange to go something like this:
Squallz: I didnt see any credit to droidlife in the article.
Michael: The source links are at the bottom.
Oh wow, look at that, it was actually easier and took less time for both of them!!! :O

Peh. I appreciate that Michael jumps into the fray when called for. He has a right to be fed up with the incessant potshots at PA's journalism/professionalism/bias.
49. medicci37 (Posts: 1278; Member since: 19 Nov 2011)
Would be nice if the reader's had as much freedom to express their opinions as the writer's do though. I get tired of being warned over stupid sh*t because someone doesn't like my opinion. Never used to be that way. I miss that about PA
51. a_merryman (Posts: 749; Member since: 14 Dec 2011)
Right, the potshots at their professionalism by not acting professional. Not to mention they regularly edit the articles after posting and fail to say what they edited. So it is entirely possible that when squallz read it that they really didn't source it yet. Or possibly only sourced the Play Store.
I don't really think they're biased, before the launch of an Apple product they have a bunch of apple stuff, before the launch of Microsoft stuff they have a bunch of that, and before the launch of Android flagships they have a bunch of stories on those. Not much bias in the stories either, it's just fanboys getting butthurt when they dont see enough stories about the things they care most about...even though theyre complaining on the day the new iphone or galaxy device gets launched. I just read their comments as "Rabble rabble rabble"

Yeah....we should just devolve into the youtube comments so that nothing worthwhile ever gets said. I don't really care what squallz said, but Michael is supposed to be an employee of this place and a journalist. Show some professionalism and just correct squallz without the sass. I'm sorry I expect the bloggers themselves to be the bigger men and not act like the children that frequent the comment sections.

Nexus 4 was better in my opinion. That had that million dollar design with that crystal reflection back and all.

Nexus 4 LTE does not exist
Neither does a larger battery capacity model of nexus 5
43. NexusPhan (Posts: 625; Member since: 11 Jul 2013)
Except the standard Nexus 4 has full LTE if you're on T-mobile. So there is (and has always been) that option.
3. clevername (Posts: 1436; Member since: 11 Jul 2008)
This is such a boring looking device
12. imkyle (Posts: 1073; Member since: 18 Nov 2010)
Agree. While the specs are up to par, they could have made is a little less of a stretched out Nexus 7.
32. TheYellowDart (Posts: 26; Member since: 18 Oct 2013)
Never understood why people care about the appearance of their phone. All that matters to me is the screen quality cause thats all i'm gonna be looking at. The rest just goes into a slim case to protect the dern thing from my own stupidity.
37. Pancholo (Posts: 380; Member since: 27 Feb 2012)
A million times this.
If people are stupid, they get a cover, making them clever. If people are boring, they get an iPhone, which somehow makes them "interesting." What a silly society.
I'm waiting.

I'll buy this thing if its smaller than my xperia Z.
24. Kishin (Posts: 704; Member since: 30 May 2013)
Why would replace the Z for Nexus 5??
25. haroonazeem638 (Posts: 141; Member since: 29 Mar 2011)
I can bet you it is. Sony is going crazy with the bezels.
40. TediT (Posts: 41; Member since: 03 Sep 2012)
Why do they actually need such big bezels?
7. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 805; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
Awesomeness. . Please Google. I want one. But I'm in India. . Please launch here also with same price point. . Please. ..
17. htc_evo_3d (Posts: 84; Member since: 11 Mar 2013)
We all expect the same.. Last week my friend bought nexus 4 here in India and I could not believe my eyes, the device is freakingly FAST enough to handle 15 apps at a time.
Next time I am going to buy this Nexus 5 if released in India.
45. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 805; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
But it was released by LG and priced higher.. That is why I didnt buy it.. I want it at cheap price... If Google launches it at $349 in USA, it would be close to $500 in India if LG launches it.... Thats the sad part.. I want google to release it...

Told Samsung to stop using Glossy Plastic yet?
11. sojizy (Posts: 25; Member since: 30 Aug 2008)
how do you know there is no lte?
14. orca99 (Posts: 87; Member since: 05 Oct 2013)
There is LTE. What do you want in a design? A graffiti? Horns coming out of the back cover? A big apple picture on the back? LOL
30. Adrian38 (Posts: 142; Member since: 05 Nov 2012)
No LTE? Where the hell have you been? This most certainly supports LTE.
15. greathero1 (Posts: 565; Member since: 13 Jun 2008)
I love the minimalist design and the price point. Can anybody confirm T Mobile LTE bands because if so, I think I've found my back up phone replacement.
44. NexusPhan (Posts: 625; Member since: 11 Jul 2013)
Let me Google that for you.
16. Danishs (Posts: 147; Member since: 23 May 2013)
If only it was a liiiiiiiiiitle bit thinner
23. orca99 (Posts: 87; Member since: 05 Oct 2013)
It's already thinner than a Nexus 4 which has a smaller screen. If it was any thinner, you would have to settle for a smaller screen......like an iPhone.
19. GeekMovement (Posts: 2156; Member since: 09 Sep 2011)
If next year they release the next nexus, will they call it the nexus 6? What about the year after since their tablet already got the nexus 7 name? Will be interesting to see what kind of name they will come up with. Nevertheless, I'm stoked and excited for this.
21. rodkurt (Posts: 128; Member since: 29 Nov 2012)
again other countries can't relate and would buy it for a much higher value.
41. TediT (Posts: 41; Member since: 03 Sep 2012)
that sucks I know. I live in Albania and we cant use google play to buy devices and Nexus 4 was sold here for $600. This time I'm gonna order it from someone in US and just mail it
28. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
if this comes out for Verizon i'll be sold.
47. roldefol (Posts: 4253; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
I highly highly highly doubt it. If I had any confidence that Verizon would support the Nexus 5, I would have held out for it. Until they drop CDMA completely, I have no reason to believe they will. I'll just look forward to KitKat on the new Droids.
48. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
i'll probably get a Moto X myself if the Nexus 5 has no Verizon availability.
31. dickwyn (Posts: 621; Member since: 07 May 2012)
those icons look pretty good. waiting for a port
35. Taters (banned) (Posts: 6474; Member since: 28 Jan 2013)
Nexus 5 is based on the screen size. Next one won't be Nexus 6. It will be Nexus 4 2014 or Nexus 5 2014. Just like Nexus 7 2013 and the soon to be released Nexus 10 2013.
Going any other way runs into problems like Geeky movement just said.
36. sunnyfpy (Posts: 89; Member since: 12 May 2013)
Never a best seller from the beginning ,only latest Android OS at launch .
42. mui2g6 (Posts: 20; Member since: 12 Dec 2012)
bland design...boring
52. andynaija (Posts: 898; Member since: 08 Sep 2012)
Wait if the front-facing camera is in the middle where would the earpiece be?
54. roldefol (Posts: 4253; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
The earpiece is in the middle, the FFC is in the top left corner (it's a tiny thing).
56. kosal (Posts: 21; Member since: 19 Oct 2013)
Thats the proximity sensor on the left and FCC in the middle..... Now where the earpiece???
57. roldefol (Posts: 4253; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
Unless the earpiece is on the top of the phone (which I doubt), the earpiece is in the center, the ffc is on the left, and the prox/light sensor is hidden on the right. Can't usually see the prox sensor on a black phone, especially in a press photo.

Yes you are right....ive looked at the image closely now

Luxury Accommodation in Waterberg
Waterberg travel guide
The Waterberg Mountains in Limpopo offer over five thousand square kilometres of incredible, scenic landscape, while in the valleys and on the plains farmers make the most of the fertile soil to grow maize and sunflowers, and to farm cattle.
Against the magnificent mountainous backdrop, the bushveld landscape is typically African in nature with massive baobabs and Marula trees adding texture to the terraine.
Waterberg Highlights
Game Reserves: Stay in luxury game lodges and go on game drives and game walks aplenty to view the Big 5 and other South African wildlife species at the many excellent game reserves in the Waterberg region including Mabula and Mabalingwe Game Reserves and Welgevonden
Golf: The Legends Golf & Safari Resort is home to the unique 'World-In-One' Signature Course where each of the 18 holes has been designed by a world golfing legend. Take the challenge of the world's most talked about Par 3, the Extreme 19th - set high up on the Hanglip Mountain, accessible only by helicopter, and played to a green in the shape of Africa - some 400m below. An inspired 10-hole Par 3 Tribute Course pays homage to some of the greatest golf holes ever designed and there are two Clubhouses and a pool.
Hot springs: At Bela Bela (formerly Warmbaths) you can enjoy the many benefits of the natural hot springs – especially wonderful on cold winter weekends!
Museums: Visit the Waterberg Rhino Museum (Africa's only rhino museum) at Melkrivier and the Arend Dieperink Museum at Mokopan both offer visitors fascinating facts and exhibits.
- Nature Reserves: Enjoy the beauty of nature – hike, swim, birdwatch and explore the many reserves in the area including Waterberg Biosphere Reserve (which is the only savannah biosphere reserve in southern Africa and features significant San rock art sites) Makapans Valley (regarded as one of the country's most significant archaeological and palaeontological sites), Rust De Winter Nature Reserve and Nylsvley Nature Reserve. Explore the caves at Mokopane (with a guide!).

Tools and services are necessary for content marketing, content distribution and lead nurturing, there's no getting around it. There are a myriad of tools and services to assist with content marketing and content distribution. Some of the available tools are free or low cost, and others require payment or subscriptions in order to use. Lead nurturing may begin when someone clicks a link to find out more, opts into your capture page or sales funnel, and you offer them solutions in a more personally directed way, perhaps through a free e-book or a series of auto-responder emails. Depending on the situation, a phone call may be warranted. You may invite them to a webinar, send them an audio link or interact with them on Skype.
One of the best platforms for content marketing is a hosted WordPress blog. If you are a network marketer and are not yet ready to develop your own blog, there are alternatives. A popular site with a great Alexa ranking for marketers is IBO Toolbox, where you may construct free "press releases" and if you create good online SEO, you may have a chance of hitting the first page of Google for your keywords. For that you can use the Google Keyword Tools. While it is advisable to have your own hosted WordPress blog, there are free blogs sites and others where you pay to blog while selling the service to others to cover your costs and to even turn a profit. Nevertheless, to attract readers to your content, you must be able to be found in the search engines, or place your content where your target market is most likely to find it.
In addition to blogs, press releases or article marketing, other ways to get the word out about your products is through advertising with banners and text ads, using classified ads in Craigslist and other online publications, using company splash pages or squeeze pages or creating your own squeeze pages. If you use a splash page, let it lead to a capture page which will give you contact information for your leads so that you can work at lead nurturing, or even better, let your well written, search optimized content lead to a link which directs the reader who wants more information to a squeeze page or lead capture form.
Once you've published content, its important to consider your target audience and demographics. This is where content distribution comes in to play. Share your own content on social media sites, and have those share buttons available on your blog so that others may follow suit. Ask your friends, associates and readers for some "TLC" or Tweets, Likes and Comments. Some sharing tools that I like include TribePro, SocialAdr and SocialMonkee, which are services which help to increase backlinks to your content. Comment on other blogs with relevant remarks. If you are placing ads off site from your blog, you may want to use trackers to test the effectiveness of your advertising.
To share queued content to go out to social media sites at specific intervals, I like Social Oomph, which is kind of like having a social media virtual assistant, as it tweets for me on auto-pilot about every 20 minutes. While some of your social media can include automated posts; however, you have to also be social and interact personally, adding inspiration, value and positive affirmation for people. When people follow you on Twitter, thank them. Look among their tweets and find something of interest to retweet for them. Show good will, and ask questions to create interactions.
Lead nurturing is important for conversions. Auto-responder email marketing, free E-books, and some personal emails may start the relationship and build a subscriber base. Depending on the situation, however, when I pick up the phone and call people who have expressed interest, conversion rates have always multiplied Find out what your prospect is interested in and see how you can be of service. Be a good listener, and offer step by step solutions as you engage in lead nurturing.
Use Skype and get connected to people who join your programs and offer them assistance via screen sharing if they need help to learn a new skill. When screen sharing on Skype, you have to be either in call or video mode for it to work. You cannot screen share on chat as it won't work. After you develop specific problem solving skill sets with people, make a video about how to solve problems or shorten steps, or conduct a group session on Skype and record it.
These are only a few tools and tips about content marketing, content distribution and lead nurturing. It requires practice, patience and action. Its ok to not be perfect. What matters is that you try, that you move forward, that you continue learning and although you may find times where other things take precedence, don't give up. If this post was helpful, please comment and share. (I know the video is out of sync with the audio…. this is called trial and error learning. As soon as I learn how to fix it, it won't have to happen again.)

Happy Three Year Anniversary City of Heroes
[img]http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=8141693[/img] written by SeoulReaver Happy Three Year Anniversary City of Heroes. Today marks the three year anniversary of when City of Heroes first hit store shelves and became an instant success!!! Bringing the ability for everyone to be a hero for a small monthly fee of course. I've been one of the fortunate players who was around from the beginning to the present. I've seen every issue this game has released and I must say I haven't been disappointed with NCSoft and what they give to the avid fans of COH/COV. Everything from PvP to Real time effects and destructive missions. They have brought the semi reality of you becoming a hero right onto your desktop! Please help NCSoft celebrate by logging onto the Test Server tonight only for their Three Year Anniversary Party!!! The event will be broadcasted on Woot Radio as well as live updates! for more informationRead more →By Cherith in Angel Life No comments yet
Fun in the Sun? Pffffff
Whoa Woot! I have finished my classes for the term, the summer weather is slowly kicking in, and of course we all know what that means? It's the season for playing catch up! That's right summer does not mean the time to have fun in the sun. It's the time of year where I can finally catch up with all the wicked games that have been released over the fall, winter and early spring. As being the good student that I am (Cough Not Cough), I could never really get too engrossed by games through out the term because I would never be able to finish reading any of the text books, novels or library reserves that are required for my course. But now I'm super free! ^.^ So hopefully there will be more reviews and more blogs coming up from me ^.^ But for now, I just want toRead more →By netzach in Angel Life No comments yet
Reviews Re-vised
In a short time I will be writing a review on Rogue Galaxy. Yes and when I say short I mean in a few weeks, school is ending soon. Anyway, in additon to the normal review format I will be adding a section where I will tell you one of three things. The first being is this game a must buy right now, the second being should you wait for the bargain bin pricing, or three skip it. Just a little way to add some individuality to reviews. Not to mention it kills boredom and it's like my own little ratings. FollowRead more →By vainya in Angel Life No comments yet
An Introduction
Just a quick 'about me'. I'm a gamer, in just about everyway that word applies. What's interesting, is just how many types of 'gamers' there are. And we all look at each other differently. Me, I'm a role-player. Tabletop/Pen-and-Paper stuff mostly not the online stuff that seems to be gaining more and more popularity. I mean, the hard core, old school D&D & Warhammer Fantasy – games that've been around for near 30 years and don't show much sign of slowing down. I wish sometimes there were a better, clearer way to interact in a tabletop game online, it would be so great to keep up with old gaming friends that way…I love to mix and match my gaming loves by playing big fantasy games where I get to try my hand at playing a video game in a world, or system I'm familiar with because I've also role-played there.Read more →By Cherith in Angel Life No comments yet
Epic Mount Scandal
[url=http://epicslut.ytmnsfw.com/?ecb46839f78996db3ef3afd80e365b45]Epic Mount WoW Scandal[/url] I really don't feel that I should post the image of this person's post but for those of you who haven't heard or followed the link it is a sad day for females and gaming. Here is just one reply from many on this subject. It saddens me to see that women with little to no self respect pretty much take us back several hundred years just by ONE thoughtless act. Why am I being so harsh? Because now everytime i'm in game and ask for assistance i'm certain someone will remember this girl and say "I'll help ya…For an Epic Mount" *wink, wink* However it won't be as funny a reference as let's say the infamous "Leroooy Jenkins." As a Female and a Gamer i'm appalled that the moderators of that forum didn't delete her request for 1. safety reasons and 2. indescent advertisement. I'mRead more →By Cherith in News No comments yet

The lowdown on Vix
Hello everyone, and welcome to my little space here on gaming angels. Let me start off by giving a big thank you to Trina and everyone that has made me feel so welcome here, I am really excited to be a part of this community. Please allow me to introduce myself, my RL name is Kristianne, but my gaming name is Vix. Why vix, you ask. One of my friends from high school started calling me Vixen which in time shortened to Vix and needless to say, it has stuck with me ever since. I'm 20 and am in college studying International Relations and English Lit & Language. Bleh, I see double. Hehe. I work in the DVD/CD/Video Game department @ Circuit City. I consider my relationship with gaming as informed but evolving, if that makes any sense. Meaning that I hadn't really tried to branch out and play differentRead more →
Welcome to the Beginning
Hello everyone, my name is Netzach and I'm a reborn gamer. What is a reborn gamer you ask? Well a reborn gamer is a person who had drifted away from videogame for a period of time, due to circumstance, change of interest, or whatever other reason. At a younger age I use to play on my game boy, wicked games such as Kirby's Dreamland, or Mario, or Pokemon, but as time went on, I replaced games with other activities. It wasn't till I entered my university life that I began to love video games once more, and for the past 5 years I have been trying to pick up were I left off, and loving it.(Ever notice how the so called most important time of your life, ends up being filled with video gaming time?) Now time for a little Q&A about moi! Age: Too old Favorite Games: The FinalRead more →By netzach in Angel Life No comments yet
Hello and welcome…
Hello everyone my name is vainya and I'm a gamer. *waits for mindless "Hi vainyas* Anyway I have been playing games since I was four. I remember wanting to play the NES at a young age. No one would let me hold the controller. One day they walked away and I got my hands on the controller and they haven't been off ever since. I have the callouses on my hands to prove it. I remember pulling fatalities in Mortal Kombat quicker than those that had played it and were more experienced. Fastforward to 2002 and I was caught up in the Pokemon Craze. Yes we used to have Pokemon parties in class. One person would bring a link cable and we would trade and battle. I was the first to have level 100 pokemon. So I kept beating everyone. That was what opened my eyes to game development. IRead more →By vainya in Angel Life No comments yet

The case is reported of a 39-year-old pregnant woman who
presented with fever, abdominal complaints, and diarrhea. Laboratory investigation revealed mononucleosis in the peripheral
blood. All microbiological studies were negative, with the exception of finding cytomegalovirus (CMV). Seroconversion was documented; the virus was cultured from urine and subsequently
was demonstrated to be present in the inflamed mucosa of the
rectum and distal sigmoid, which was found at sigmoidoscopy.
This woman was delivered of a neonate with congenital CMV
infection but without apparent malformations. The patient experienced recurrences of the bowel disease, in the first of which
CMV could still be cultured from a biopsy specimen. In the follow-up period, an otherwise aspecific chronic inflammatory bowel
disease remained present. No immunological abnormalities
were found, and antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus
were negative. This case demonstrates that inflammatory bowel
disease can develop as a result of primary infection with CMV.

The holiday weekend snow storm has come to an end, but the clean-up for Hudson County residents is just the tip of the iceberg.
Shovelers are advised because that glistening white snow can be fatal. Heart attacks, back strain and muscle soreness are just a few of the problems credited to shoveling snow.
Here are some tips to make shoveling safer:
Always remember to dress warmlly, especially because you are working up a sweat.
Do not shovel the whole driveway in one shot. Take breaks every 15 minutes.
Go inside and drink hot chocolate, not hot coffee. The caffeine may increase your heart rate and cause your blood vessels to constrict.
Keep hydrated. Drink plenty of water.
And know the warning signs of a heart attack. These may include chest pain, shoulder, neck or arm pain, dizziness, fainting, sweating or nausea; or shortness of breath. And if you think you're having a heart attack, seek medical assistance.
Here is how to shovel correctly:
Lift with your legs, not your back. Bend your knees and keep your back as straight as possible so that the lifting comes from your leg muscles, not your back.
Pick up smaller loads of snow. It's best to shovel by sections.
Push. Don't lift. Save your back by pushing the snow to the side, instead of lifting the snow and throwing it off to the side.

Thursday morning's headlines
Making headlines around the Northwest this morning:
- Boeing Field Air Traffic Controller Suspended
- Seattle Cop Charged With Kicking Teen Suspect
- State Adds Jobs But Unemployment Rate Up Slightly
- Everett Man Accused of Bosnia War Crimes
Sleeping Boeing Field Air Traffic Controller Suspended
[Late breaking news: Official overseeing US air traffic controllers resigns after controllers sleeping on the job.]
Federal officials are boosting overnight staff at more than two dozen airport towers across the country after new instances of air traffic controllers falling asleep on the job - including at Boeing Field in Seattle this week.
The Boeing Field controller was suspended after falling asleep during a morning shift Monday. The Seattle Times' Jack Broom reports he was already facing disciplinary action for twice falling asleep during an early-evening shift in January, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
Mike Fergus, an FAA spokesman in Renton said it's not yet clear how much of a danger the employee might have caused.
Meantime, U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood told CBS's "The Early Show" this morning he's very displeased with several recent incidents of sleeping controllers across the country, including problems at airports in:
- Reno/Tahoe, Nev.

4th-Degree Assault Charges Filed Against Seattle Officer
A Seattle police officer accused in the videotaped kicking of a youth inside a convenience store has been charged with fourth-degree assault.
The city attorney charged 42-year-old Officer James Lee on Wednesday after reviewing an independent State Patrol investigation. The patrol was brought into the case at the request of Seattle Police Chief John Diaz.
Conviction on the gross misdemeanor is punishable by a maximum year in jail and $5,000 fine.
Lee's lawyer, Peter Offenbecher tells The Seattle Times his client is innocent and they plan a vigorous defense. The Oct. 18 encounter happened shortly after Seattle police were attacked nearby during a narcotics buy-bust operation.
The African-American youth has filed a claim against the city for $450,000.
The U.S. Justice Department recently launched a formal civil rights investigation into the Seattle Police Department after several incidents of force used against minorities.
State's Jobless Rate Inches Up
Washington added an estimated 1,100 jobs last month, though the overall unemployment rate increased slightly from 9.1 to 9.2 percent. The Employment Security Department says the professional and business services industry saw the biggest gains in March, adding 2,700 jobs. The industries that took the biggest hit in March were construction and education and health services.
Two Northwesterners Held in Bosnia War Crimes Case
Two naturalized U.S. citizens living in Washington state and Oregon have been arrested over allegations of war crimes in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
That country requested the arrest of Edin Dzeko of Everett, and Rasema Handanovic of Beaverton, Ore.
Both are accused of being members of a Bosnian Army unit that attacked the village of Trusina where 16 civilians were killed.
A defense attorney, however, will argue that Edin Dzeko, 39, is not the same person witnesses identified as participating in a massacre of Croatian civilians in the early 1990s, according to The Herald of Everett's Noah Haglund.
Both would have been 18 at the time of the April 1993 attack, which also left four people, including two infants, seriously injured.
She immigrated to the United States and became a citizen in 2002. He immigrated to the United States in 2001 and became a naturalized citizen in 2006.
Both were arrested Wednesday.
They're being held by the U.S. government, pending extradition hearings.

His first tip on getting noticed: stand out from the crowd.
"Say or do something that's out of the ordinary," the 30-year-old says in the August issue of Seventeen magazine. "It's not about what perfume you're wearing or if your shoes are cute. If you do something with purpose that is different than what everybody else does, then it makes you stand out."
The Maroon 5 frontman, who is currently on tour with his band to promote their latest album (It Won't Be Soon Before Long), also reveals what he consideres major turn-offs: not making eye contact, a lack of self-confidence and drama.
"I've been with girls who are very dramatic, and to me it's a waste," he says. "When there's constant drama all the time, it's such a drain on your energy."
And to answer one of the great mysteries of dating – how to judge a man's intentions – Levine says women can trust their friends. "They can provide an unbiased opinion of a guy you like, and if an overwhelming majority of your friends don't like him, chances are he's a moron and you shouldn't date him," he says.
Another secret? Pay attention to a man's relationship with his mother. "I'm a mama's boy," he admits. "That's why I'm nice."

Kevin Costner, Goldie Hawn, Kevin Spacey, Patrick Swayze, Michael Clarke Duncan, Lauren Holly, Denzel Washington and Cuba Gooding Jr. were among the fabulous folk who flocked to the 44th-birthday party for hot Hollywood producer Elie Samaha (The Whole Nine Yards). Tracee Stanley, the president of Samaha's Franchise Pictures, hosted the bash in L.A. But the person Samaha was most shocked to see was Renny Harlin, who flew in that night from Brazil, where he is directing Sylvester Stallone in Champs. Harlin came bearing a gift—a portable DVD player—and a new look: He had snipped off his customary ponytail. ("I thought it was time for a change," Harlin explained.) "This guy's so handsome, he's going to pick up all the girls," teased Samaha, whose seven-year marriage to actress Tia Carrere ended in February.
It's show time, and a Who's Who of Hollywood have been cheering the Lakers on during the NBA play-offs. Jack Nicholson cozied up with his current lady, The Practice's Lara Flynn Boyle, to watch the Phoenix Suns fall to his team on May 7. Two days earlier, Edward Norton and Salma Hayek double-dated with Dustin Hoffman and his wife, Lisa Gottsegen, to see the Lakers whomp the Sacramento Kings. Sarah Michelle Gellar also scored a seat to that game but took it a step further, asking to meet the team's star center, Shaquille O'Neal, at halftime. Alas, O'Neal was a bit busy. But would he have made time if a certain Oscar winner had made the request? After all, he did tell me, "The celebrity I want to take on a date is Angelina Jolie." Too late, Shaq. Ms. Jolie has been spoken for (see page 71).
Tough-guy actor Tony Danza, who used to box, isn't easily intimidated. But when top tap dancer Gregory Hines and veteran band maestro Skitch Henderson recently came on the same night to see Danza's song-and-dance act at the Regency hotel in New York City, the performer was really pressed to put his best foot forward. "When you have people like Gregory Hines or Skitch Henderson watching...it's a little tough," says Danza. "It was a very heavy night."
Contrary to published reports, David Hasselhoff says he will return as an actor in Baywatch Hawaii. "I still own a piece of the show," says Hasselhoff, an executive producer of the syndicated series which has its season finale this month. "I don't want people to think Mitch is gone. I'd like to appear once in a while." A source close to the show says, "The door is always open. Our story lines will be different next season. It's just a matter of whether it will work out."
Mel Gibson, in Chicago filming What Women Want with Helen Hunt, favored Cub fans inside Wrigley Field on May 2 with a stirring seventh-inning-stretch rendition of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game." But the Aussie also left a memorable impression on fans at the Steppenwolf Theatre, where he tried to slip in unnoticed to catch Gary Sinise in One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest. According to the Chicago Tribune, when Mel got up at intermission, there was a large, very-hard-to-miss RESERVED sign from his seat stuck firmly to the back of his leather jacket. Nice try, Mel.

Maangchi, thank you for the bimbimbop recipe and info! Your work is awesome and really appreciated.
Do you know where I can find a recipe for my favorite – bibim guk su? Not sure of the spelling…anyway I love those cold noodles and that is my favorite dish!
Thanks again for all the great work – can hardly wait to try all your recipes!
You are adorable! I have a blog and I just wrote a post about food photography. I'm an American photographer here in Seoul and I would love to learn how to make bibimbap! A young woman just emailed her favorites sites to me and on HER own blog I found my way to you. You are on her list!
Keep up the great work!
I will be in Thailand in the middle of March and while I'm there, I will take Thai cooking lessons. Do you give lessons? If so, please let me know.

I was checking the statistic of my blog… 30 visits? Weird… Usually nobody comes to my blog.
And now I know why! Because of the free advertisement by you.
I cannot stop laughing when I read your suggestion on the garlic-gy smell.
I had the Dol Sot Bibimbab last night, and the smell still lingered in my mouth this morning… I wonder how Koreans manage this, since almost every dish consists of garlic? Maybe Korean made toothpaste can kill the smell better?

Understanding the reactions of the pituitary-adrenal system to biologically important stress has recently been of central concern to students of stress physiology. Over the last decade an increasingly large literature adds assurance that psychologically stressful and emotionally disturbing conditions, not involving direct physical insult or injury, do also, though perhaps less greatly, lead to adrenal activation. Response has been reported to such diverse stresses as competitive sports, college examinations, paratroop training, anticipation of surgery, admission to a mental hospital, transfer of monkeys to a new laboratory, intentionally disturbing psychiatric interviews, delayed auditory feedback, disturbing movies, the experience of perceptual distortion, conditioned avoidance and punishment, and numerous other naturally occurring and laboratory-produced conditions. Although the earlier studies had to utilize secondary measures of adrenal activation, newer meth- ods for the measurement of plasma hydrocortisone and urinary hydroxycorticoids provide essentially similar findings.

J ASON AND MARLO Dilks, of Queen Village, are husband-and-wife owners of Slice, which makes "Trenton-style" pizza in Center City, South Philly and Washington Township, N.J. The first location, at 10th and Federal streets, opened in 2007. Marlo, 32, runs the business side, designs menus and shops for fresh ingredients. Jason, 38, spends nights in Slice's locations overseeing customer service and quality control. I spoke with Marlo.
Q: What led to Slice?
A: My father was a butcher at 24th and Passyunk and then he opened a deli in Folcroft and another in South Philadelphia. I waitressed throughout college and worked for him. I met [Jason] and he asked me where he should go for good Italian pizza in the city and I said not [Philly]. He took me to DeLorenzo's Pizza in Trenton. I said I'd love to bring that concept to Philly.

Remote Access to Windows File Server volumes
Colleagues - As a part of an overall network rebuild at IC, we'll soon be moving our Novell file sharing services over to Windows File Server (WFS) volumes. We're trying to develop a means to provide secure remote (i.e. from outside our firewall) access to those WFS volumes located inside our firewall. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has successfully tackled this issue and is providing secure remote access to WFS files behind a firewall by some means other than VPN. For purposes of ease of training, use and support, our vision is to make that remote access appear as close to on-campus access as possible through the use of services provided via the local desktop OS - one such example being WebDAV - for volume mapping and access. But we haven't yet found such a service that can be easily distributed across a firewall. Any and all ideas are appreciated. I'd be happy to summarize responses back to the group if desired. Thanks. ------------ Ed Fuller Associate Vice President for Information Technology Services Ithaca College 953 Danby Road Ithaca, NY 14850 P: (607) 274-1000 F: (607) 274-1484 firstname.lastname@example.com http://www.ithaca.edu ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.

For decades the Boy Scouts program has taught young men all across the country values they carry throughout their lives values like responsibity, loyalty, and politeness.
Fathers have gone through the program when they were young, and, in Bayonne, their children carry on the same tradition by following in their footsteps.
Troop 25 was founded in 1941 and was connected with the St. Vincent Cadet Corp in the 1940s. It then set its own path a few years later.
John Hughes, the scoutmaster of the Bayonne Boy Scouts Troop 25 for the past 43 years and vice president of the administration on the executive board of Boy Scouts of America, Northern New Jersey Council, is a man who has lived a life in scouting.
"The Boy Scouts is the most effective educational program," Hughes told The Bayonne Weekly. "It teaches young boys the conventions of life."
Scout law asks that scouts learn and display traits in life including being trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, economical, brave, clean and respectful, Hughes explained.
As scouts go through the program they can attain a number of different merit badges and ranks. The qualities one needs to possess in order to achieve those badges, and even succeed in life, are all included within the scout law, Hughes said.
"It's also about being part of a group and learning that actions one may do may have a even larger impact on the community. Learning and following the scout law can lead you on a path to success in life," he said. Leadership is one of the main traits that boy scouts learn as they continue through the program. Older scouts frequently work with and mentor the younger scouts.
"Boys leading boys has been the model since the beginning and it hasn't changed since then," Hughes said. Scouts become involved in community activities, including donating to food banks, helping out with summer camps, participating in the outdoor program, doing monthly activities, and being involved in many local service activities, Hughes explained.
Scouting has many different groups for young males to get involved in, starting with the cub scouts and carrying on through the age of 21 with venturing scouts. Some within local troops have been involved for years and the opportunity to teach and mentor young men through their early life holds a special place in their hearts.
With the program staying nearly unchanged after decades of service, Hughes is hoping that the organization continues to stay true to their beliefs and continues to teach young men values to live by.
"I just want the Boy Scouts to keep the same principles that have been around since it first started 100 years ago," John said.
"Kids learn in the Boy Scouts, but they don't even realize they are learning something and that's truly valuable."
Troop 25 meets at every Wednesday at 6:30 PM at Saint Vincent's School, 80 West 47th St.

fans of rock and roll help celebrate the latest PBS production
of American Soundtrack: "Rock at Fifty (1955 – 1965)." This
is the 12th installment of one of the most successful series of
productions in public broadcasting history.
musical montage of doo wop, pop, and rock is hosted by Gary Puckett,
lead namesake of the 60's rock band Gary Puckett
and the Union Gap, and one of American Soundtrack's most
popular hosts, Jerry "The Iceman" Butler, who makes
his seventh appearance. Puckett and Butler are part of a star-studded
cast of artists who helped to make what is called "the first
decade of rock" a piece of American history.

In communist China, the communist party has absolute power over the entire population of the Chinese people.
As everyone knows, absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Now the multinational corporations have climbed in bed with the communists. Many United States capitalists like the power that the communist have over their working people (slaves).
They know if they ship the working people's jobs to the communists, they can make enormous profits from their Chinese slaves and pay little or no taxes.
When they ship those products to the United States, they are charged a 2 percent tariff.
When we ship things to China, the communists charge us a 25 percent tariff.
We now have an enormous debt because we send so much money to the communists through unequal trade.
So many keep blaming the working people of the United States but never address the problems of unequal trade.
Under the Trade Act of 1974, Section 301 was designed to eliminate unfair foreign trade practices that adversely affect the U.S. trade and investment in both goods and services.
Under Section 301, the president must determine whether the alleged practices are unjustifiable, unreasonable or discriminatory and burden or restrict U.S. commerce.
If the president determines that action is necessary, the law directs that all appropriate and feasible action within the president's power should be taken to secure the elimination of the practice.
We Americans have seen so many jobs going to the communists by our capitalists so they can get around our Constitution and laws of the land. They couldn't get away with their criminal acts in the U.S.
It should be forbidden to import everything that was previously made in the U.S. into the U.S. from China, and everything else should be taxed at the same tariff rate as the communists tax U.S. imports.
That would balance our budget and get everyone working again and paying taxes to balance the budget.
William C. Green

Viacom released the following statement today in response to the YouTube user data controversy (first reported on this blog):
"It is unfortunate that we have been compelled to go to court to protect Viacom's rights and the rights of the artists who work with and depend on us. YouTube and Google have put us in this position by continuing to defend their illegal and irresponsible conduct and profiting from copyright infringement, when they could be implementing the safe and legal user generated content experience they promise.
Yesterday, a district court dismissed several claims in the case Coupons, Inc. v. Stottlemire, in which we had, in March, filed an amicus brief. Coupons offers online coupons that consumers can access and print using software provided by Coupons. The software tries to limit the number of times a user can print each coupon. Coupons claims that John Stottlemire created a tool that modifies the Coupons software, allowing users to print more coupons.

A few months back, SF Gate cartoonist Mark Fiore introduced his character Snuggly, the Security Bear, with a brilliant take on telecom immunity. Now, Snuggly is back, and he has a few words to say about "compromise."
As we reported yesterday, Chief Judge Vaughn Walker of the Northern District of California has just issued a key ruling in Al Haramain v. Bush, one of the cases challenging the NSA's warrantless wiretapping program. Judge Walker is also overseeing the consolidated litigation against the telecoms. With the Senate poised to vote on the FISA Amendments Act and immunity this Tuesday, this decision is particularly timely, as it demolishes key arguments made by proponents of telecom immunity:
As EFF has been saying for years, the best way forward in the wars over illegal filesharing is the creation of a Voluntary Collective Licensing system. It sounds simple enough: Music fans would pay a small fee each month in exchange for a blanket license to share and download whatever they like. Collecting societies would collect the money and divvy it up between rights-holders based on which files are shared the most.
Apparently no longer even bothering with coherent or rational arguments, supporters of the flawed surveillance bill have now resorted to namecalling. Here's Senator Orrin Hatch's argument in last Thursday's Senate debate. (h/t ThinkProgress)
New NSA Spying Decision Undermines Arguments for Telecom Immunity
Today, Chief Judge Vaughn Walker of the Northern District of California, issued an opinion in Al Haramain v. Bush, one of the cases challenging the NSA warrantless wiretapping program. The Court found that the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) preempted the state secret privilege. This important decision is particularly timely, as it undermines key arguments for telecom immunity on the eve of the Senate vote on a FISA bill, set for next week.

Candling is a method of checking an eggs fertility. Natural fertility is never 100%, in fact if you have bought shipped eggs for hatching the fertility rate is likely to be nearer to 50%, as even the best shipping method will have damaged some of the eggs. Otherwise if they are eggs from your own hens or ones that have never been shipped then you may expect up to an 80% success rate.
You will need to check your eggs for fertility when artificially incubating using an incubator. Infertile or bad eggs should be discarded so that there is no risk of them going bad and exploding inside the incubator, which would contaminate the other eggs.
Making a Candler
Candling gets its name from the days when people used candles as their light source, of course these days you can buy or make your own candler using a light bulb as the light source. The easiest way to make your own candler is to place a light bulb (low energy light bulbs are best as you can get a very bright bulb, but without the heat of a conventional one) and light fixture inside a cardboard box. Cut a small, round hole in the top of the box, just big enough to sit the pointed end of your egg into. Place your egg into this hole and turn the light on.
Candling does not damage the embryos inside the eggs as long as you don't heat them up too much with the heat from the candling device.
It is easiest to see development of the embryo after a week. The most critical period in the incubation process is the first week so if you do decide to candle your eggs before a week then be very careful with them and do not overheat them. Always clean your hands well before touching the eggs, otherwise you risk transferring harmful bacteria to the chick embryos. Limit your candling, to a very maximum of three times during incubation as each time humidity and heat is lost from the incubator, which could jeopardise your hatching success.
You should be able to see what is inside the egg and with practice you will be able to identify fertile eggs by the spider-like blood veins spreading out , bad eggs, (may have blood rings and will be cloudy) where the embryo started to develop but later died and infertile eggs that are clear except for the shadow of the yolk.
Always make sure your hands are clean otherwise you risk transferring harmful bacteria to the chick embryos, through the shells. Limit your candling, to a very maximum of three times during incubation as each time humidity and heat will be lost from the incubator, which could jeopardise your hatching success.
Don't be too quick to discard an egg that does not appear to be developing. We recommend that you wait until Day 14 before getting rid of it. Development will be clearer by then and you will be more easily able to compare the egg in question with others of the same age.
Dark brown eggs
Dark coloured shells are more difficult to see through, so you will need a brighter light. Even with a brighter light you may need to leave the egg longer until the embryo is potentially bigger and hope that you don't in the meantime have any eggs that go bad and explode.
Some Candling Photos
Candling is not a specific art, it is more of a comparison, meaning all the eggs of the same age should look the same. It is something best learned by doing it.
How do I spot bad eggs?
The egg on the left above shows a ring at 6 days. This ring is formed by concentrated bacteria which has invaded the eggs' membrane. It can become present very early, or after the chick has already started to form, as in the picture on the right. In the picture on the right the ring, or portion of it, can be seen at the bottom of the egg with the expired chick in the middle.
For a different reason. The egg on the left above shows a blood spot. In my experience an egg with a blood spot will not hatch. They will go bad and explode. The egg on the right at 6 days shows 'clear; which means it is infertile, or too old to germinate.
The egg on the left shows a blood spot incubated to 8 days. You can see the bacterial ring forming at this point. Soon this egg will start to 'weep' and if it isn't caught in time, it will explode into a stinky mess. The egg on the right shows highly defined pores. Eggs that look like this under candling have a slim chance of hatching in my experience. I've noticed that it mostly depends on the severity of the porosity.
On the left, you can see the 'spider' of veins growing away from the embryo, this egg is 6 days old. The egg on the right is 2 weeks old, you can see the clear spot beneath, with the yolk and chic embryo floating at the top.
