A super high grade of marijuana. Kush was developed by a very good bud breader name Kyle Kushman. There are now many varieties of kush available today such as O.G. Kush, Blackberry Kush, and Kyle's Purple Kush. Unfortunatly kush has been popularized by rap music.
buyer: What the fuck?! You're charging me $75 fucking dollars for an eighth?!!
dealer: shiiet niggah it's kush, fiddy cent rapps 'bout dis shiiet.

Good to High quality Weed.
Shit, that Kush was good...
by NTSaga October 20, 2003
A strain of Cannabis, almost solely of the Indica variety. The name "Kush" originates from the Hindu-Kush mountains where it was cultivated for thousands of years. This sweet smelling plant is part of the Cannabis Indica family, which leads the plant to be short and squat in appearance. Some forms of Kush, however, are in fact a hybrid between Cannabis Indica and Cannabis Sativa...which leads to greater harvests. Varieties of the Kush plant include,(But are not limited to), Hindu Kush, OG Kush, Purple Kush, Master Kush. Many crossbreeds exist as well.
Guy1: Hey Doc, whats this skunky green shit here?
Drgreenthumb: Thats some Master Kush my friend, best you can find outside of the Cannabis Cup.

Usually referring to the Kush strain family which is named after it's birth place, the Hindu Kush region of the Himalayan Mountains in Afghanistan (ex. Hindu Kush, OG Kush, Master Kush, Bubba Kush, Purple Kush, etc). Kush is usually a Indica dominated strain.
Yo man...I just got a pound of some kush.

Dank weed. If you're lucky, you can get some purple buds (purps). This is a sign of a kick ass product. I find it best to smoke a nug from a glass bong and then smoke some from a glass pipe. One should feel good after a rip from a bong, but the high will tense up as you're smoking.
I got some nice Purps, that's some dank Kush.

A 31-year-old Overland Park man has been charged in connection with an assault at Shawnee Mission Park Wednesday.
Police said Michael Erler, 31, approached a woman in the park, grabbed her breast, exposed himself to her and asked if she wanted to hook up.
Police said the woman called police, who arrested Erler in the park within minutes.
Erler has been charged with sexual battery and lewd and lascivious behavior.
While the arrest happened on the same day that an 11-year-old girl said a man followed her in a pickup truck and exposed himself while she was walking to school in Olathe, police said the two pickup trucks were different colors and they don't think the cases are related.

Samsung Galaxy S III vs Apple iPhone 4S
phone calls, while the GS III really impressed us with the loud and relatively clear tones emitted through its earpiece. Both handsets sound very good on the outgoing end. The Galaxy S III again has a slight edge thanks to its flawless noise-cancellation technology, which eliminates pretty much any ambient noise.
On the other hand, the Apple iPhone 4S's loudspeaker does sound louder and clearer compared to the one of the Galaxy S III, which is on the weaker side.
The iPhone 4S is rated to provide 8 hours of 3G talk-time, as well as 8.3 days of stand-by. Unfortunately, Samsung hasn't announced any specific numbers regarding the battery life of the Galaxy S III. With moderate use, you should be able to get about 2 days out of the Galaxy S III, while the iPhone 4S may last slightly longer, due to the more power-efficient software and smaller screen. With heavy usage, you'll hardly get more than a day from the Galaxy S III, and a day and a half from the iPhone 4S. However, this is all hypothetic, as the battery life of a smartphone depends on numerous factors, including coverage, how much time you spend connected to a 3G/4G network and how much to Wi-Fi, what apps you use, etc., etc., so don't give it too much thought.
As we stated in the beginning, this is one of those fights which could last for an eternity, because each of the opponents is the best in its own way. However, as we break things down, it should become clear to you which way you want to go.
There shouldn't be any doubt that the iPhone 4S is the better-designed handset. With striking visuals and premium written all over it, this is a phone that you won't be embarrassed to put on the table. Quite the contrary, you might want to put it there, as it has turned into a status symbol. The design of the Galaxy S III, on the other hand, caters to the needs of the hardcore crowd, thanks to its large display that makes enjoying multimedia that much more fun.
Apart from its multimedia superiority, the Galaxy S III is also the better phone if you love tinkering with the software of your mobile device. Are you of the type that is constantly looking for ways to personalize their computing devices, including their cell phone? Do you find it cool to install custom ROMs and/or overclock the processor of your handset, just to see how far you can go? If the answer to at least one of those questions is a resounding YES!, then you, our friend, absolutely need to get a Samsung Galaxy S III. We guarantee that you'll love it.
And who should get the iPhone 4S? Apparently, those guys would be the kind of users who don't really pay so much attention to their smartphone, but still want something that's contemporary and reliable. Are your needs limited to the basic phone stuff, surfing the web, occasional social network check and maybe even playing a game every now and then, but you have no intention of spending hours of rooting, flashing ROMs and searching for the ultimate widget set? Well, you guessed it you'll be better off with the iPhone 4S, as it's designed just for you, buddy.
Now, let the intelligent and level-headed discussion begin!

dumb comment if you are going to post make sure you post something interesting. back to topic the galaxy S3 brings more to the table with their new added features, and of course it has higher specs overall.
4. bobfreking55 (Posts: 866; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
i know. just havin' fun.
3. bobfreking55 (Posts: 866; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
wait, don't you think you should have included the camera software functions of the SIII? Hmm...
5. Yummy (Posts: 117; Member since: 28 Mar 2012)
THE IPHONE 4S IS THE BEST PHONE EVER! Jk Jk lol now that I have your attention, I really think it is just a matter of opinion. I would prefer the galaxy s3.
159. ajac09 (Posts: 1481; Member since: 30 Sep 2009)
and thats it it is ALL a mater of opinion. apple and android and windows and black berry fans all will find a reason to stay with what they like.
6. PackMan (Posts: 277; Member since: 09 Mar 2012)
Firstly, I choose Samsung Galaxy sIII.
And i think these reviews are pretty shallow, phonearena should go for in-depth reviews.
7. rallyguy (Posts: 620; Member since: 13 Mar 2012)
Well this whole article is opinion. The reason companies keep making different phones is because different people want different things out of a phone.
But if you stick to specs and current trends, I think it's hands down the GSIII is the more desirable phone. I wouldn't buy either one personally, but I'm the minority with that statement.
8. KingShango (Posts: 89; Member since: 16 May 2012)
I think the conclusion sums things up nicely. Both phones have pros and cons and its up to the consumer to decide what's best for them. Personally I'm not i love with the whole "giant screen" trend so the GS III is out for me. Maybe a One S...

9. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
great review. I was interested to see just how you wrote this up.
one nit pick though is on the syncing..when comparing the 2 you completely neglected the sgs3 's ability to use Google drive to back up everything, the fact that Gmail has always synced contacts or that g+ auto syncs your pix to privace folders online. the Samsung cloud services are not necessary.
12. bloodline (Posts: 706; Member since: 01 Dec 2011)
You should replace ray, I am not even joking.
Phones arena you should hire this guy
14. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
well the iPhone has iCloud and the iPhone can take advantage of Gmail and G+ features like that.
19. maryaaadil (Posts: 146; Member since: 07 Apr 2012)
Why do you guyz bother cloud when you have microsd card slot with support up to 64gigs
I think 64+64=128 gigs are enough for a phone even if you wanna play games like GTA IV on it
people can call me mad but as a matter of fact we can't enjoy as much privacy with (i)cloud than a SD card
38. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
because content in the Cloud is accessible from anything that'll take your password. phone, tablet, laptop, pc. it's available anywhere.
54. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
but what use is the cloud if you are not always guaranteed decent speed? not hating i use drive and dropbox but sometimes it is useless when i cant get decent speed where as with a sd card or built in memory,its always there regardless of your connection speed...cloud is not perfect but is great as you said its available if you got the connection and speed .its why i always buy phones with sd card slot.
89. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
you're right it's not guaranteed but if you're using a network like Verizon's 4G LTE or T-Mobile's HSPA+ then you'd just about think it is and besides most cloud services allow you to download your content so you don't HAVE to waste space on your phone with movies and music and such but you can if you want to.
116. maryaaadil (Posts: 146; Member since: 07 Apr 2012)
I am in India and where i live i have no 3G service..........
BTW I used cloud through WiFi but that was damn slow. So, no sd card slot is a deal beaker for me..
135. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
okay, so use your SD Card. whatever man. the Cloud is useful for some and not useful for others.
136. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
exactly. Useful for me, useful for u... were in 4g heaven. I wouldnt sync if i was on 2g all the time.. lol.
137. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
good god man, you'd think they believed we were trying to force them to use the cloud and nothing else wouldn't you?
177. DanMarino13 (Posts: 63; Member since: 22 Feb 2012)
The 4G LTE markets and man, i'm not even sure why you mention T-mobiles HSPA+, don't cover a majority of markets yet. Even then, you use more data on 4G and HSPA+, and nearly every carrier is not unlimited data, so you are just asking for overage charges on data usage.
63. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
exactly. and if someone steals my phone that's synced, I haven't lost a byte of info.. if someone steals your phone that u don't sync anything with.. you lost everything.
77. chapizzo (Posts: 116; Member since: 13 Sep 2011)
you know you can sync your phone with your computer as well right? What are the chances you lose both at the same time?
84. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
ive been working in the industry for a while now and the one thing i can say, is that almost no one backs up their phone to their computer. iOS is/was fragmented to all heck and back because of the old requirement of having to wire it up to iTunes to get updates and do back ups, regardless of how much the media ignores it... RIM and WM5/6xx both had computer back ups and no one used them either.
Syncing is thought free. It just happens and you dont need to worry about it.
141. tedkord (Posts: 11712; Member since: 17 Jun 2009)
I used Activesync to back up my WinMo phones to my PC back in the day.
178. DanMarino13 (Posts: 63; Member since: 22 Feb 2012)
The amount of customers that come into Best Buy and don't know if they have icloud or how to use it is staggering. Most consumers don't know to do either one, you should try being less biased.
85. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Cloud will in increase your payments because of huge traffic!
Also what you gonna do with your Cloud when there is no internet connection?
90. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
well then don't lose Internet Connection there babe or is that just too much to ask? ;P
the point is you have your stuff available if you want it. you're not obligated to use it but you can have more available to you when you have a solid Internet Connection which i'm not worried about on Verizon.
101. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
What about the payments because of huge traffic?
What about internet speed?
Not all world use Verizone.
You also can use SD card in your Laptop or PC so, that's not a problem.
Smartphone use more power while downloading content from the Cloud it will faster drain battery.
107. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
I dont use VZW
Tmobile's plans are way way cheaper and give more.
hard cable syncing still takes thought from the user
hard to argue the battery part, but chips are getting better, so phones are lasting a bit longer with each generation.
109. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
well then don't use it.
i have unlimited data, i can use 4G LTE and i'm not being charged to keep my data accessible from anywhere at anytime without actually having to take up my physical storage space so why not?
110. chadrick0814 (Posts: 209; Member since: 23 Nov 2011)
Do you have verizon when you're on a plane? When flying, I would think that is the time you want access to your data the most. You could pay the airline $7 for 15 minuts of wi-fi. However, if you're flying overseas, airlines don't have wi-fi over the ocean. Speaking of overseas, how well does verizon's CDMA network work outside of the continental US? The iphone now has the two antennas which is good. Its a good thing they are all rich because dowloading/streaming from the cloud while roaming has to be expensive. Now, aren't you glad you have the GSIII with both cloud access and a large amount of extended memory!
113. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
then download your data before you go. there's a time and place for cloud data just like there is for everything else. your plane example was as dumb as asking someone why they have games on their phone if they go to work.
142. tedkord (Posts: 11712; Member since: 17 Jun 2009)
Not if you hold it right, I suppose...
143. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
oh i see. you guys think i'm an iOS user huh? xD
106. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
most of the syncing options that take real data like G+ and such, you can set to "automatic on WIFI only". Problem solved. :)

162. Forsaken77 (Posts: 553; Member since: 09 Jun 2011)
I thought his comparison was terrible. It's like he was trying so hard to force out something good to say about the Android phone that literally wipes the floor with his precious iPhone. The GS3 is more than 3 times as powerful and feature packed. There is no comparison. This guy, Ray S., shouldn't be writing supposedly "objective" view points when he can hardly be objective. And it's not about "personal preference" in a head-to-head comparison. The GS3 wins, bottom line. This article is supposed to showcase the available features, most of which were left out of the GS3 part btw, and compare them against each other. This guy will never say anything is equal to, or better, than his iPhone and shouldn't be allowed to write these articles or reviews. The only thing he should be allowed to do is review the next iPhone, but even then you can't take it seriously because of his fanaticism.
11. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
you want the sgs3 unless: you barely use your smart phone, have Tiny hands, or are shallow enough to think that a phone is a status symbol that chicks care about (they don't).
25. andro. (Posts: 1998; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)
Agreed,the article pretty much states that also stating the iphone is the phone if you "don't reallypay attention to smartphone" and use your phone for "basic phone stuff with occasional browsing". Anything more can be too much for most ifans as their iphone is essentially to make them look "contemporary"
55. E.N. (Posts: 2610; Member since: 25 Jan 2009)
well to be honest, I think this review kinda sucked. This was more iOS vs Android than anything else and it was pretty generic (a little too much talk about customizing and widgets). If it was another reviewer, it could have easily gone the other way. And I think he was trying to please you Android folk because you guys basically criticize everything he does (he gave SGIII the upper hand in a lot and yet some of you are still complaining).
But anyway the SGIII is a pretty solid device, but I do wish it wasn't so ugly... I'm pretty hopeful that the iPhone 5 will destroy it though. If Apple delivers like they did with the original iPhone 4, it may be game over.This should get interesting.
68. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
he could have went into more detail. that is true. but as a quick overview it wasn't that bad.
apple needs to come out swinging for the fence with the i5. even this quickie review shows just how far behind apple is in many categories. the sgs3 preorders out pacing the i4s's total launch weekend sales really shows what the masses want. if the i5 doesn't bring it, iOS is going to lose a lit more market share. if it does bring it, it puts them back in the game.. not dominating.
59. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
iphone is great for people who dont like to customise there phone to make it there own and all they really do is browse the web,play some games,fb etc but arguably the experience of these things is actually better on the larger screen. iphones is a great phone(had the 4 myself) but personally for me it is very basic at everything it does and doest really push itself...one thing that annoys me with android vs ios reviews is that everyone keeps saying android is too hard and ios is simple but the simple matter is somethings in android is way easier on android due to widgets and its sharing capabilties but android itself is simple out the box and there are more things you can do with it if you want to but you dont have to...you can use android just as basic as ios out the box,the only difference is if you want to you can do more but the fact is you dont need to use those extra features to use android.

18. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Such a failed article!
Conclusion at the end is delusional.
With that attitude, why not compare the SIII with Emporia phones for elderly people and conclude that it all depends on what you need, so there's no clear winner.
You can't relativise the fact that, in a fair comparison, SIII blows the 4S out of the water.
It is proven in countless examples that android is actually EASIER to use, way more functional, more intuitive than iOS, (all things equal regarding the performance) even for a light user.
31. Ray.S (Posts: 331; Member since: 19 Jul 2011)
The Galaxy S III and iPhone 4S are more or less direct competitors. The Emporia phones that you give as an example are created for an entirely different demographic.
Note that I didn't say that the iPhone isn't for real smartphone users that do a lot of stuff on their devices. I just said it isn't the open and tweakable platform that Android is. But if you're OK with doing things in a strictly controlled way (the Apple/iOS way), you can do tons of stuff on an iPhone, using its applications. Meanwhile, if you want to do things your way, only Android can make this possible, because it gives you the freedom to do so.
71. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
so the big question is which phone would you buy with your own money ray? ;)
80. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
which one would you buy. the iphone 4S or the "crapdragon" version fof the SGSIII?
83. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
I'm not remixfa and I also wont buy Samsung Galaxy S III, but if I would, I would buy Samsung Galaxy S III with Exynos 4212.

As a federal appeals court considers the legality of Texas' family planning "affiliation regulation," a new report provides a preliminary assessment of the impact of the Texas rule on preventive care access by low-income women.
"An Early Assessment of the Potential Impact of Texas' "Affiliation" Regulation on Access to Care for Low-income Women," released by the Geiger Gibson/RCHN Community Health Foundation Research Collaborative, reports on the impact of Texas' "affiliation rule" on access to cancer screening, preventive health care, and family planning services by low-income women.
Specifically, the report finds that the affiliation rule – which would bar Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) clinics from participating in the state's Medicaid expansion family planning program because of their affiliation with an entity that performs and advocates for legal abortions – jeopardizes access to care for nearly 52,000 low- income women. The study reports that PPFA clinics represent the single largest source of health care for clients enrolled in the Texas Women's Health Program (WHP) and that their exclusion would eliminate women's access to 16 of 26 of the state's largest WHP providers. In FY 2010, PPFA clinics accounted for approximately 49 percent of all WHP-financed care, furnishing services to 51,953 WHP clients out of 105,998 WHP clients served. Of the 1,469 providers that billed the WGP in FY 2010, 908 (62%) served 10 or fewer patients, while 368 (25%) served only one patient. The authors conclude that the WHP program lacks any reasonable access alternative.
The report also examines the capacity of the state's community health centers to scale up their services to compensate for the loss of PPFA clinics. The authors conclude that it would be virtually impossible for health centers to fill the need given cutbacks in state family planning funding and the magnitude of the demand for health center services in the state with the nation's largest proportion of uninsured residents.

George Deeb: Budget for Proof-of-Concept Marketing from Day One
It is a sad, but familiar, story in startup land. An entrepreneur raises a limited amount of funds, plows it entirely into building out their product, and has no gas left in the tank for driving users to the site once the product is complete. Then they go to the venture community looking for additional growth capital, without having achieved the proof-of-concept required by the venture investors in the form of initial user adoption or revenues. Hence, leaving them out-of-luck with the VC's and scratching their head on how to raise sales and marketing money. This is the typical cycle I see over and over again with the startups that reach out to Red Rocket for financing assistance.
Proof-of-concept is defined as a rapidly growing base of users, revenues or client pipeline that can clearly demonstrate to a new investor that there is real and growing demand for your product or service, to get the investor excited about investing in your business.
See what other startup mentors have to say about marketing tactics.
When you are deciding how much money to raise day one, you cannot only think about the cost of building out the product, you also have to leave enough cash cushion in the bank, to allow you to hit the sales and marketing accelerator once the product is built. Frankly, this latter amount is equally important as the product itself, as without it, you will not achieve the proof-of-concept points that will open up the additional venture capital to scale up your business from there.
Every business has its own unique sales and marketing objectives. B2C businesses are usually marketing driven. B2B businesses are usually sales driven. So, you need to think ahead of time for: (i) which tactics are best for your business (search marketing, social media, media relations, trade shows, sales people) (ii) what is the "tipping point" that will get the longer-term venture investors (iii) budgeting how much sales and marketing money will be required to allow you to reasonably achieve those objectives.
For example, let's say you are an e-commerce website. And, the venture investor says, we would like to see 1,000 customers buy your product first, before investing. Through your own market research, you have learned that e-commerce sites have a 3% average conversion rate so you will need to drive 33,333 consumers to your website after the product is built. And, if you are planning on buying paid search traffic from Google to do that, you will need to research the average price per click for your keywords and industry. So, if that answer is $1 cost per click, you need to have $33,333 sitting in reserve for marketing.
Nothing goes perfectly as planned with startups, so I would set aside at least double what you think you will need.
Don't make the same mistakes of the thousands of entrepreneurs before you, thinking "if you build it, they will come". This is not the movie "Field of Dreams". This is startup reality. So before writing one line of technology code for your product, start thinking through your marketing needs from day one, to make sure you are raising enough funds for both your product and your proof-of-concept.
Mr. Deeb is managing partner at Chicago-based Red Rocket Ventures, a startup consulting and financial advisory firm.

CHESTERTOWN, Md. - Every week, Christeena Minopetros combs bays and beaches for sea glass, whether she's in Florida, Greece, or her childhood home of Sea Bright, N.J.
This month, she was dipping her fingers in the waves off Long Beach Island, where she returns for a family vacation most every summer, hoping to find the greens and blues and maybe, possibly, hopefully, a sliver of red or orange.
"It's such a mystery for me," said Minopetros, who serves on the board of the North American Sea Glass Association, a national collectors group with more than 2,000 people on its mailing list. "Where does it come from, and how did it end up here?"

Apple iPhone and Apple iPad users are complaining about battery drain problems on iOS 6.1.3
0. phoneArena 27 Mar 2013, 10:22 posted on
After Apple pushed out iOS 6.1.3 last week to repair an issue with the lock screen, it might have set off another serious problem as all of a sudden, Apple iPhone and Apple iPad users are complaining about an issue with the battery; some are saying that they can no longer work a full day without having to stop to recharge their device...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

i have iphone 5, updated to 6.1.3. I dont have huge battery drain like others, but yeh battery life decreased. Furthermore, no problems with wifi connection, just having some problems with 3G but maybe it is fault of my carrier

which Carrier you have?

Its just one epic fail after the other for Apple recently...yup thats what you get for throwing guys like Forstell out and making Joey Ive incharge!
2. funnyguy (banned) (Posts: 244; Member since: 10 Jan 2013)
On my ipad I feel that the battery is better after the update..
No problems whatsoever...
3. eliasafram7 (Posts: 83; Member since: 18 Mar 2013)
surely Apple is aware of the problem and hopefully iOS 6.1.4 will be sent out soon to repair the problem. yes sure after each update performed by apple the problems are growing instead of decreasing
47. andro. (Posts: 1998; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)
At this stage its like a degenerate disease,iOS updates are being pushed through almost by the week now to cure new faults and errors,but each cure is an ifan placebo as in fact the iOS as a whole is getting worse and more buggy with each release
6. sonofzeus (Posts: 95; Member since: 05 Jul 2012)
IOS 6.1.4 will resolve the battery drain issue,but will create some other problems for which IOS 6.1.5 will give a resolution and it goes On and ON

Don't worry, we still have more Apples, like : Japanese Fuji Apple, Granny Smith etc.
31. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
And there are alternatives.... Pears, oranges, berries come to mind.

I work for verizon and oddly enough blackberry has actually made a decent phone im playing with it right now. Iphone killer? Jk Apple doesnt need help with that.

Don't forget "Blackberries", I mean "Blueberries".

The fix involving letting your battery go completely dead is insane, who can afford to give up their phone for that amount of time? Is that a one time deal or do you have to repeat the process periodically?
11. mariosraptor (Posts: 125; Member since: 15 Mar 2012)
one time deal. just to reset battery stats
32. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
Well, you could also manually kill apps that aren't important. Draining the battery is a bit extreme, IMO. Plus, there is no guarantee that it will work.
9. CreeDiddy (Posts: 749; Member since: 04 Nov 2011)
My battery seems to drain faster through Spotify and heavy streaming than normal. However, we are all waiting for iOS7. So maybe these useless updates will stop.
12. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
Apple has gotten really good at screwing up their phones. I still wonder why someone would buy an iPhone 4S for $99 on contract when they could get a newer and better phone for the same price (RAZR HD, SIII)
29. Lift_Off (Posts: 152; Member since: 04 Apr 2012)
Oh ya they are so bad for releasing fixes to what people complain about... I dont think any other phone company pushes out fixes faster than apple does. and people buy the 4s because they want an iphone but don't want to spend extra for the 5. Not that hard to understand.
42. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
But why get an iPhone to begin with? Plus android updates don't damage the devices. The last time I remember hearing a complaint about an update on the Nexus was the calendar bug.
58. rcrider4 (Posts: 118; Member since: 14 Nov 2011)
I beg to differ. The ICS update for the Epic 4G Touch has caused my phone to shut itself off constantly. The only way to get it to turn back on is to remove the battery and restart. The phone is still on and burning battery while it is "off", it just won't turn the screen on, and in the battery meter, it showed that the battery died (which it didn't). I've fine through 3 replacements, all with the same problems. I'm hoping JB comes soon to fix it...
59. mas11 (Posts: 1034; Member since: 30 Mar 2012)
I'm talking about the Nexus 4 not a device limited by a custom skin or carrier. It's the pure Google experience. What carriers and manufacturers choose to do to their phones isn't Google's fault.
51. javac (Posts: 102; Member since: 04 Mar 2013)
Lol well im just going to throw this out there for you to think about. Maybe it should be QUALITY over quantity? with over 100 billion in savings you would think they could afford to invest in QUALITY.
14. PhonePhazer47 (Posts: 30; Member since: 01 Oct 2012)
have noticed that drain!..... cmon apple, get it together!!!....
16. vineethgajula (Posts: 2; Member since: 18 Mar 2012)
I own ipad after updating it to 6.1.3 i felt there is not much draining of the battery
18. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
As expected. :)
19. vandroid (Posts: 328; Member since: 04 Sep 2012)
I haven't noticed a battery issue on this phone in fact it's probably because I came from the HTc one s which has terrible battery life
20. mclifford81 (Posts: 74; Member since: 26 Jan 2010)
shorter battery life, wifi is not connecting, when on vibrate it vibrates three times for a text instead of the normal two and then 30 seconds later a notification pops up relaying the text notification bar, emails vibrating three times as well, and lastly losing sound during videos.. Annoyed? I'd say heck yeah!

all the phones are the same any 4g phone you are gonna charge them twice a day apple,andriod,windows ....im a tech for att the're not gonna last all day just deal with it ppl pay extra chargers and batteries for any phone

I've never had a problem with my iPhone 5's battery life, including after the update :/.

I have iphone 5 and ipad 2 and i have updated ios 6.1.3 but till today i didnt find anu battery issue...i dont even think there's such a problem..i don't know why people facing that but seriously no issue with mine ios devices......
52. javac (Posts: 102; Member since: 04 Mar 2013)
Your right you dont have any issues which means its all a lie!!!
Guys it was an april fools joke lets ditch our Cutting edge Androids and get the iphone 4!!!
27. sprockkets (Posts: 1611; Member since: 16 Jan 2012)
The reason for the battery drain is the ipad or iphone is constantly scrambling the lock screen program to prevent another bypass :)
28. pyradark (Posts: 857; Member since: 10 Jun 2012)
Thats why i need to shift in XZ. Im on vacation and i didnt update my iphone 5, so safe for awhile. Pls. Apple do something right with your update. Thank god i only get this phone thru carrier.
34. tbacba (Posts: 98; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
The gentleman who claimed his battery showed 99% charge after 12 hours is either confused or lying. A 2% per day battery drain means his phone previously (before the update) could last almost 2 months? I don't think so...
35. edwardpascual (Posts: 2; Member since: 27 Mar 2013)
Battery drain is my problem too since last update. Besides that, my iPhone 5 has freezed 5 times since last update. Apple people U should ck
36. bubbadoes (Posts: 987; Member since: 03 May 2012)
What do you expect on your premium device with undisclosed 1100 mah battery. Have you noticed Apple never discloses Ram. Processor speed other than a6 or battery mah size. They dwell on the fact that the phone is retina on the screen

No. Wait until 6.1.4.

41. jesusnexo (Posts: 149; Member since: 26 Mar 2013)
i shouldnt have updated my iphone 4 to 6.1.2 :( bateery sucks....
43. jphillips63 (Posts: 221; Member since: 04 Jan 2012)
I'm still on 6.1.1 on my iPad 4 I'm holding out until there is a real fix to this issue but I don't see any in the near future as the Devs for apple have been migrating over to android OS now and apple are loosing there best Devs which is quiet funny.
45. ijustcoolin (Posts: 9; Member since: 27 Mar 2013)

53. javac (Posts: 102; Member since: 04 Mar 2013)
except that you can only open apps from 7 am to 7pm.
54. vickygamit (Posts: 31; Member since: 16 Aug 2012)
they are pushing updates without testing and observations
55. spiderpig2894 (Posts: 588; Member since: 10 Jan 2012)
This is true. I have an iPad4 and the battery percent is now 96% from 100% in just 20 minutes of web browsing at the minimum brightness.
57. GadgetsMcGoo (Posts: 168; Member since: 15 Mar 2013)
They should really just put in removable battery doors. At least with this issue, one can drop in another battery in a pinch.
60. novakayn (Posts: 1; Member since: 30 Apr 2013)
I have the 4s and my battery dies fast and my wifi only works if I'm right in front of the router. All my other wifi devices work anywhere in the house, even my wife's 4s! It's very frustrating!

Keeping patients laughing throughout their root canal treatment isn't the only thing that Los Angeles Endodontist, Dr. Yacaman does well. She also executes insurmountable skill as she performs root canal treatment utilizing magnification lenses, microscopes, years of experience, and world-class training.
LA Endodontist, Fanny Yacaman has gained the trust of many celebrities and high ranking government officials who travel from around the world to be seen by her. Her experience, quick wit, and attention to detail put her in a class of her own.
Signs and symptoms that may indicate root canal treatment is needed can vary. Most of the time patients feel pain when they bite or chew, or sensitivity to hot and cold food or beverages. Other patients notice gum swelling or complain of feeling like they have a "pimple" on their gums. These symptoms may be caused by bacteria which causes decay and as a result of this factors, the patients develops an infection. This infection needs to be stopped as it is not only wreaking havoc in the mouth but can also affect other parts of the body. If the infection spreads to the tooth pulp, a root canal should be performed to clean the bacteria out of the tooth roots so it can be sealed so no more bacteria enters. If infection is not controlled on time, it may spread to other places in the face, brain or throughout the whole body. (There is also a proven relation between heart attacks and oral bacteria.)
Patients who need root canal treatment have the option to see a special type of dentist who has gone through two years of additional training solely focused on root canal treatments. This specialist is called an Endodontist. Beverly Hills Endodontist, Dr. Fanny Yacaman, has more than a decade of experience practicing root canal treatment and related Endodontic issues. Her personal fascination with teeth roots and root resorbtion benefits her patients as this passion translates into exceptional care. Restoring patients health quickly, painlessly and effectively is her number one priority.
The Los Angeles Endodontic team at Dr. Yacaman's practice is happy to treat patients with any level of dental anxiety. With Dr. Yacaman's help, fearful patients become calm and relaxed within minutes. Patients often refer to her dental practice as a dental spa. Through the use of breathing exercises, aromatherapy, and ambient music, patients feel calm through the entire root canal treatment process. If deeper relaxation is required, sedation dentistry is provided upon request.
Dr. Fanny Yacaman's Los Angeles Endodontic practice is conveniently located on Roxbury Drive right on the corner of Little Santa Monica, in the heart of Beverly Hills. Her office can be found toward the top of a large medical building and boasts beautiful views of the city.

The experiment was a big hitjust what instructor April Hill was hoping.
Hill is an assistant chemistry professor who promotes science education to underrepresented students pursuing STEM fields at MSU Denver. As an extension of that work, she ran the workshop at the Colorado Center for the Blind in Littleton and is planning more sessions there this year along with colleague Tom Vogt, assistant professor of chemistry.
Its all about showing blind students that they can do science and can do lab work, she says. Its just unfortunate that a lot of people feel like being blind automatically eliminates science as a possibility for them.
Hills work with visually impaired students began when she was a post-doctoral scholar at the Pennsylvania State University Center for Nanoscale Science. While there, she met a chemistry graduate student who is blind. His passion for engaging blind youth in the sciences inspired me to pursue the same goal, she says.
Together they ran several hands-on workshops and summer science camps, largely through collaboration with the National Federation of the Blind. Since joining MSU Denver in 2010, she has conducted a teacher workshop at a Colorado Department of Education State Conference on Blindness/Visual Impairment.
If a blind student is going to a regular school, the teachers have no idea how to get them involved in a lab, she says. So typically they are paired with a sighted partner who does everything and just describes to them whats going onwhich is possibly the most boring way to do science.
Hill is out to change that and encourage more blind students to consider science professions. The polymers workshop at the Colorado Center for the Blind represented a step in that direction.
What were hoping to do is excite them about science and to show them there are ways they themselves can do experiments, she says. They dont have to sit back and let someone else do them.

While financial details of Target's (NYSE: TGT ) acquisition of online cosmetics retailer DermStore weren't revealed, analysts were speculating the beauty-products supplier could fetch anywhere from $100 million to $150 million a few months ago, when Wells Fargo was hired as a strategic advisor.
With the U.S. cosmetics business a $36 billion industry, Target was smart to invest in this strategic piece of the pie, even if it won't materially add to profits this year.
Department stores still reign supreme when it comes selling cosmetics, with Macy's (NYSE: M ) pulling in almost $3.3 billion annually, and Sephora, which is owned by Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy and sells its beauty supplies through Macy's, Nordstrom, and other department stores -- as well as through its own storefronts -- rakes in an estimated $2 billion a year. It also has a strong online presence as well.
The Internet could be where the future of beauty lays. DermStore generated around $50 million in revenues last year that's projected to rise to between $75 million and $80 million in 2013, a 60% surge that's well ahead of the total 7% increase NPD Group said the so-called prestige beauty market sold in department stores saw in 2012.
As the second biggest retailer behind Wal-Mart, Target began a big push in cosmetics last year by following the lead of its rivals and rolling out "beauty concierges" to harass customers in its stores. But by focusing on a relatively high-margin business like cosmetics -- which to my male mind ought to be priced like a commodity and not at a premium -- it has the potential to generate more than just incremental profits to Target's bottom line and push an investment in the retailer much higher.
Two of the biggest names in cosmetics, Revlon (NYSE: REV ) and Estee Lauder (NYSE: EL ) , both carry operating margins of around 15%, while L'Oreal turns more than $0.16 of each dollar of revenue into operating profits. Avon Products (NYSE: AVP ) generates about half that amount, about what Target itself puts up, but the troubled beauty queen is in the midst of a turnaround and still has bribery charges hanging over its head.
In short, this acquisition is more than just a cosmetic makeover for the retailer. With Revlon recently agreeing to buy the privately held Colomer Group (for $660 million, no less) and Sephora picking up its interactive Scentsa platform, the cosmetics market is heating up, consolidation may become more common, and DermStore just might turn an investment in Target into more than just another pretty face.
Cosmetics is not only a growth industry in the U.S., but internationally as well, and China could turn into the biggest beauty market of all. Yet profiting from our increasingly global economy can be as easy as investing in your own backyard. The Motley Fool's free report "3 American Companies Set to Dominate the World" shows you how.

Plato's pole position mojo was back in bucket loads for Silverstone. Unfortunately for him, title nemesis Colin Turkington didn't want him to be lonely on pole and cuddled up in P2. Tordoff took third and the progressive Jackson, Smith and Menu trio completed the top 6. The Focus and VW…
Jason Plato's run of poles came to an end in dramatic fashion at The Rock. Not to the 'on fire' Colin Turkington, but to his team Sam Tordoff with a 1:22.471. It's easy to say that it was a ballast free lap but he was the best part of half…
The Turkington bandwagon kept on rolling into qualifying at Knockhill as he posted a time of 51.705s, almost half a second clear of the field. No mean feat over such a short lap. However as previously reported, an 8 place grid penalty for a transgression at Snetterton handed the pole…
The weekend saw the BTCC move to Knockhill, and two of our photographer friends have sent us some pictures of Marc quite literally throwing the Quantel Bifold MG6 around the circuit in incredible style. We got some amazing pictures of Marc on two wheels, both in the wet and the…

iTunes Store: Happy 9th Birthday
On this date back in 2003, Apple launched the iTunes Music Store and the Windows version, the real turning point, became available in October of the same year. Naturally, analysts and experts on the whole hated it, though the rest of us saw it was good and spent accordingly.
And, spend we have: more than 15-billion songs, 25-plus billion apps and kerjillions of quatloos.
Apple Launches the iTunes Music Store
CUPERTINO, California—April 28, 2003—Apple® today launched the iTunes® Music Store, a revolutionary online music store that lets customers quickly find, purchase and download the music they want for just 99 cents per song, without subscription fees. The iTunes Music Store offers groundbreaking personal use rights, including burning songs onto an unlimited number of CDs for personal use, listening to songs on an unlimited number of iPods, playing songs on up to three Macintosh® computers, and using songs in any application on the Mac®, including iPhoto™, iMovie™ and iDVD™.
"The iTunes Music Store offers the revolutionary rights to burn an unlimited number of CDs for personal use and to put music on an unlimited number of iPods for on-the-go listening," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "Consumers don't want to be treated like criminals and artists don't want their valuable work stolen. The iTunes Music Store offers a groundbreaking solution for both."
Read the full press release — Apple Launches the iTunes Music Store — from 2003.
Yes, Eminem was the world's best rapper and Tiger Woods was far and away the best golfer.
Well, although we could talk about how things have changed over the course of the last nine years, there's no question that iTunes is still number one…
What's your take?

I went this route because I don't know how to custom make CF shafts, plus I wanted to investigate a mod that does not require custom shafts, so others could also do. But my double decker separated on a hard crash. Daryoon made CF shafts for me and I have since abandoned my own mod. I suppose if you glued the swashes together well, they will last a long time. It doesn't bother the tail at all, as this mod only affects the swash and the angle of the rotors. It has nothing to do with tail holding. It illustrates well, what longer swash balls could do for the 9958.

9958 best micro fp and moddable as hell
Hello together... I m following this thread for nearly 2 years now, since I got my first 9958. Daryoon, helipad and several others do a great job!!!
I copied some mods from here and developed some own:
1. Daryoons shrinktube mod at the tailboom is a must, I additionally lead the exposed wire trou athin silikone tubing whitch itself is partially enclosed in a ring of shrink tube around the tail motors end. My tail motors die of exhaustion, not bcause cut wires...
2.Motors. I changed both motors against the v911 motors, they seem to have higher rpm. this gives me more power and more flight time, and the tail holds a lot better. bravo sx motors do the same, but are more expensive.
3.Swashplate. I use the helios 100 swash, same ball size but two sets of arms, fisheye... but you have to shorten the main axis for 3mm and drill new holes(look daryoons hacksmods page..) and you have to cut of the two guiding pins on the frame and glue on v911 pins set about 3mm back.
4. flybar. I widened the eye of the flybar afew micrometrs so I could make some shrinktube around the main shaft, where the flybar rides on. Now the feeling of iceskating is not completly gone, but the heli is more precise!
5. light. added a little diode (white, harvestet from cheapo 3channel heli) via a micro jst plug. the plug is soldered to the battery cables solderjoints(dunno if thats right, but it works). Now while nightflying my canopy is illuminatet and good visible.
These are my must do mods, qite simple, but effective. Even the laziest is advised to do at least the shrinktube mods, they enhance performance and durability

Tenergy 3.7v 169mAh question
I just bought two Tenergy 3.7v 160 mAh 15C batteries to use with my now almost-rangeless 9558 (I can still practice hovering). I charged one of them to 4.2v using the black charging cable included with the 9958. I watched it carefully as I was charging it; the light never went out, but the battery started to feel warm so disconnected it and measured the voltage. It was charged to 4.2v, which I believe is the target.
Here's the thing.. I can fly for about 15 to 30 seconds before the throttle runs out of enough juice to keep the heli airborne. Even though it won't lift the heli off the ground, it still reads 4v. What's going on? The 9958 still flies for the usual five or more minutes on the fully charged stock battery.
I have one more additional tenergy 160mah, but I'm afraid to try it. Did I ruin the first one by using the black cable?
Oh... I ended up completely hosing the antenna attachment point on the board by messing around there too much with my way-to-big soldering tip. Anybody got a spare board? <Grin>

I would start a grocery list of things you are going to need.
1) a less than 100 watt pencil type soldering iron, (the dream would to have a rheostat type controller)
2) good solder, it may be bad for your brain and bad for the environment, but lead is till best in solder (60/40 rosin core if you can find it, without the rosin core, you may need some soldering flux to make sure the solder melts into or onto the wires and circuit board before frying the board)
3) You should have a good charger, or at least one that does better than what you are using. These can go from pretty cheap to very expensive, but look at the battery forum threads to learn more than I can explain. I've got a couple of those little USB cable chargers for some quadcopters and at least one of them is doing something wrong because I had one battery almost burst and it was hot! while trying to charge it. I do not trust them anymore.
4) You really still don't know if the batteries are messed up or a motor. You might be able to tell by noting which gets hot first when you try to run the chopper. Since both motors and batteries are pretty cheap, I would get some of each. (soldering with a new fine tip iron will help here)
5) You should probably just order another chopper another 9958 would be fine and would make troubleshooting parts from one to the other much easier.
6) If you really think you messed up that board order another along with the motors (tail and main), batteries, and main rotor blades if you don't have more than 2 spares now.
It's all fun, but if you crash and or have problems, it's nice to have a few basic parts available so you're not waiting for a slow boat from China all the time.
John in Merrill
PS if this is still the heli with the mainboard antenna repair hatchet job, Replace the board! It looks like you have solder all over at least one if not more of the tiny SMD's on the board. Perfect flight may never be a possibility for that board. It's only $13.99 Right now at Banggood.comhttp://www.banggood.com/Wholesale-Re...r-p-41990.html
You hosed your Ternergy battery unfortunately. The 9958 cable relies on the overcharge circuit built into each 9958 cell to stop charging.
When a LiPO gets damaged, it's internal resistance goes up. Under load, it won't provide enough voltage. Take the load away and it'll still read more than enough volts to fly the Heli.

ATM I dont have apic of my shrinktube mod, have just a808 digicam and my internet at home is borken.... but I Try to explain. you cut of 6mm of shrinktube( diameter a little bigger than 4mm, 5mm is perfekt). Now you take your heli, take of blades, rotorhead and flybar. Then you slide on the shrinktube, after bthat you check if tge rotorhead stil fits, if not shorten the tube. now you fix the tube on the mainshaft by heating. If the flybar doesnt fit, widen the eye, but carefull, you need a tight fit. The fb should tether freely, but not more. the tighter the fit, the less ice skating....
I hope you understand, I try to post pics asap
Just a quick post, then back to catching up...
Thanks for the quick feedback on my 9XR question. I decided to cancel my 9XR order and get the older style 9X instead (its currently in stock in the USA warehouse with module and 8ch receiver for $65 plus shipping.) Although the 9XR appears to have some improvements over the 9X (better POTs, switches and ball bearing gimbals), it is not yet well proven and who knows how long the back order wait would be. The 9XR also does not come standard with the module needed and the antenna is on the back (rather than up on top) - seems like it would be prone to damage on the back of the TX when you set it down.
I've got lots more I'd like to say on this 9958 topic, but being OCD to the max, I feel as though I need to read the whole thread before I make any comments. I spent the entire weekend reading this thread and I'm now up to page 304 (only 170 more pages to go!) - I did the same thing over on the nanoCPX thread last week.
But I will say one thing now - Thanks a bunch to Daryoon and HeliPad! (and daf and others as well) for all their tireless and continuing efforts towards the promotion of this great little heli! (and the laugh-out-loud occasional humor as well! - especially daf's heli-isms - "RC helicopters -is there anything they can't do?")
p.s. Anyone try out the 9928 yet? (I'm curious what parts are interchangeable with the 9958) I'll find out when my order from MyRcMart shows up (hopefully in a couple weeks or less).
Thanks again guys!
Now where was I... (thats right - back to page 304 for the continuing saga...)

Huevos Rancheros with Tomatillo Sauce RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 1 1
My husband and I visited Cuernavaca, Mexico, a year ago and had huevos rancheros for breakfast while there. There my husband loved it so much he asked me to cook it for him when got home. This is my version, which is suited to my family's preference for sunny side up eggs, but poached or scrambled eggs would also be good. —Cheryl Woodson, Liberty, Missouri
- 5 tomatillos, husks removed, halved
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped onion
- 1 to 2 serrano peppers, halved
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
- 1 can (15 ounces) Southwestern black beans, undrained
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Manchego cheese
- 8 tostada shells, warmed
- 1/2 cup sour cream
