Easily grown in average, medium, well-drained soil in full sun to part shade. Tolerates wide range of soils, including dry rocky or sandy soils. Also tolerates some drought. Blooms on new growth. Prune in early spring.
Shrubby St. John's wort is a Missouri native plant that occurs on rocky ground, dry wooded slopes, uncultivated fields, gravel bars along streams and in low, moist valleys. A compact, deciduous, rounded shrub with an erect habit that typically grows 1-4' (less frequently to 5') tall. Features 5-petaled, bright yellow flowers (to 1" diameter) with numerous, yellow stamens. Stamens are bushy to the point of partially obscuring the petals (hence the species name of prolificum which refers to the stamens). Flowers appear in terminal or axillary clusters (cymes) from early to mid summer. Dark green, lance-shaped leaves are 2-3" long. Cone-shaped seed capsules split in autumn to release black seeds. Bark of older stems exfoliates to reveal attractive, pale orange inner bark. Steyermark lists this plant as Hypericum spathulatum. Plants of the genus Hypericum (some species have been used since ancient times in the treatment of wounds and inflammations) were apparently gathered and burned to ward off evil spirits on the eve of St. John's Day, thus giving rise to the genus common name of St. John's wort.
Root rot and wilt can be significant problems in hot and humid climates.
Mass or group in the shrub border or native plant garden. Can be grown as a hedge. Also useful for stabilizing embankments.
Thank You!
The Garden wouldn't be the Garden without our Members, Donors and Volunteers.

The IBPS common written examination for PO/MT jobs conducted recently has turned out to be termed a nightmare for applicants with the difficulty level taking most by surprise.But the common exam for jobs in rural banks (RRB) are to take place in the coming months.
62 regional rural banks (gramin banks) are participating in the common recruitments process & to apply for them, qualifying in IBPS RRB CWE is must. The procedure that precedes, follows the hiring route of PO,clerk & specialist officers.
This post will take you through
- Exam comparisons
- Officer pattern & books
- Office assistant pattern & books
- Which language paper to choose
With the exams to be conducted on September 21/22 (for officers) & Sep 28/29 (office assistants) there is enough time for applicants to prepare.
Similarity in exam patterns:
If you have appeared for previous PO or clerk CWE`s, then preparing for this IBPS RRB exam 2013 may not be tough as the structure of both are similar. Take a look at the image showing their 2012 composition:
They are pretty much the same except for the difference in no. of questions & marks.Both tests shall be online based.
To note:
|While unanswered questions are not given any marks, 0.25 as negative mark will be reduced for each wrong answer in both exams.
Although the exam is for scale I, II (generalist & specialist), III, we shall look at the the Officer (scale I) cadre in depth.
With a 2 hrs 30 mins duration & 200 objective type questions, the outline is as follows
Since RRB officer exam is similar to PO, study materials that you used for IBPS exam would be sufficient.If new, consider buying exam guides or solved papers for practice.
* RRB Officer Exam Guide – Rs.215 – Buy online
* Practice papers 20 sets – Rs.178 – Buy online
Office Assistants
The RRB office assistants test pattern is exactly same as clerical exam in commercial banks.
You will have to answer 200 objective questions within 2 hrs 30 mins & the maximum marks shall be 200.What are the sections?See below:
As the patterns of office assistant & clerk exam are same, it is worth to prepare for this test using those materials or you could get any of the below books for RRB CWE.
* Office assistant exam guide – Rs.240 – Buy online
English or Hindi language paper?
Now this is an important addition to the list of instructions.Since gramin banks are located only within a particular state, employees are required to have proficiency in the local language.
As per the govt.`s official language act, states are categorized as Group A, B & C.
According to it, IBPS says:
We hope this article would have explained the pattern of IBPS RRB (regional rural banks) 2013 common examinations in detail.All the Best!

Hiii... I need help at Hyrule Field with defeating the Twilight Monsters.
I've seen the one tip that says to kill the Monster farthest away and then use the force field to kill the other two monsters but I don't know how to use the force field. If you kill two monsters, the 3rd one wails and rejuvenates the other two.
How do I use the force field?
At this phase, Link is the wolf...I have no idea how to use the force field...am super-duper stuck.

Joe Wikert has just inadvertently proven that the book publishing industry drowned most of its innovators at birth. Earlier today Wikert published a post titled Whatever happened to innovation in the publishing industry?, and proceeded to unintentionally answer his question by example. At the beginning of his post, he cites the Kindle as the last major innovation in digital publishing: Remember the excitement surrounding the launch of Amazon's Kindle eight years ago? It was a clunky device, even by 2007 standards, but it was revolutionary. One of the original Kindle's breakthrough features was the ability to download books via cellular network. The eInk display and extremely long battery life also led to its popularity despite the device's hefty $399 price tag. That was eight years ago and it's hard to name even two or three other innovations that have had as significant an impact as the first-gen Kindle. Sure, the iPad was noteworthy but it didn't exactly reinvent reading. And while today's devices are faster and cheaper than yesterday's they feature incremental improvements, not groundbreaking innovations. The same can be said for all aspects of the digital publishing ecosystem, not just devices. The most interesting development over the past few years is probably the [...]

Bright purple. Sexy aromas of boysenberry, cherry-vanilla and raspberry preserves, with spicecake and cracked pepper notes adding energy. Juicy, vibrant dark berry flavors show liqueur-like depth and very good back-end lift. Supple tannins make a late appearance on the finish, which clings with impressive tenacity. This is pliant and juicy enough to drink now but I'd bet on it being even better in a few years.

The House Health, Insurance and Environment Committee passed a bill by Rep. Dave Young, D-Greeley, by a vote of 10-1 on Thursday that would reduce overdoses and other misuses of painkillers and household medications.
The bill responds to the 262 fatalities, 4,628 hospitalizations and 6,093 emergency department visits from non-opioid pharmaceutical poisonings in Colorado during 2012, according to a news release from the Colorado House Democrats.
"The presence of excess medications is a clear problem and results in thousands of hospitalizations a year and unfortunately sometimes death," Rep. Young said in the news release. "The bill encourages people to dispose of these medications in a safe and appropriate way instead of keeping them in their home."
The bill creates a safe disposal method for excess or unwanted household and prescription medicines.
HB14-1207 will now head to the House Finance Committee.

Ryan Hembury was bummed out as he left the University of Pittsburgh's Fitzgerald Fieldhouse on Sunday.
He knew losing his 189-pound match at the prestigious Dapper Dan Wrestling Classic was a possibility, but losing by fall, even to No. 1-ranked Morgan McIntosh of California, was not what he had in mind. Still, the Muncy senior couldn't help but be happy to be a part of one of just two Pennsylvania teams to beat the USA all-stars since 2001.
The Pennsylvania seniors beat five wrestlers ranked No. 1 in the country by Intermat on the way to a 27-18 win over the USA all-stars. Three of those five wins over No. 1-ranked wrestlers came from PIAA Class AA wrestlers. It was Pennsylvania's first win over the USA team since 2009. Prior to that Pennsylvania hadn't won since 2000.
"It just shows Pennsylvania is the best place for wrestling," Hembury said. "(Penn State head coach) Cael Sanderson moved to Pennsylvania because he knows it's the best place to be for wrestling."
Hembury said he was surprised at just how quick and strong McIntosh was once he got on the mat with him. McIntosh, who is a Penn State recruit and could be in the national champions' starting lineup next year, put together a number of takedowns and quickly racked up a good lead before he scored the fall against Hembury with 1 second left in the second period. It was the only fall of the match.
"He was definitely one of the best ones I've ever wrestled," Hembury said. "He's very quick and strong. I basically ran into a buzzsaw."
Hembury is just two weeks removed from winning a PIAA Class AA state championship at 189 pounds. He and teammate Zack Strickland - who won the 152-pound championship - were Muncy's first state wrestling champions in 55 years.
But even in the process of beating defending state champion Stephen Ceremuga of Commodore Perry in the final, Hembury hadn't run into someone at quite the level of McIntosh.
"He was always in very good position and very strong," Hembury said. "He was pretty much the total package wrestler."
Hembury, who was the first Lycoming County wrestler since 2004 to be selected for the Dapper Dan, is still walking away from the experience with a positive outlook.
"Overall it was amazing being with all these great wrestlers who are going to go on to be national champions and All-Americans at the college level," Hembury said. "It would have been nice to win, but I can't take it to heart and be depressed about it. I have to go back and learn from it."

A random traffic stop led Volusia County deputies to a missing 3-year-old child.
Police arrested the child's mother, 26-year-old Deanna Doss, after investigators said they stopped Doss' boyfriend during a traffic detail.
Deputies ran the tag and learned the vehicle had ties to a missing child taken from her father in New Mexico.
The child is fine, and her father is now traveling to Florida to get her.
Doss is charged with interference with the custody of a child.

Medical Coding & Billing
Chapter 11 Disease of the Digestive System (K00-K94) contains many combination codes that require careful reading.
Chapter 13 contains codes for bone, joint and muscle conditions that are recurrent or chronic conditions while Chapter 19 contains codes for current injuries.
For certain conditions, the bone may be affected at the upper or lower end such as with avascular necrosis of the femur in the knee joint. When the site is at the joint, report the condition of the joint, not the bone.
A symptom code should not be assigned when it is considered to be routinely associated with a disease process.
With indirect infections (Category M02) of joints due to infectious or parasitic disease classified elsewhere, the coder is directed to "code first" the underlying disease.
Staphylococcus aureus arthritis of the left ankle is an example of when the organism is reported first, followed by a code to report the pyogenic arthritis.
For hemorrhage to be reported there does not have to be active bleeding; however, there must be documentation in the medical record indicating active bleeding has occurred and the source of the bleeding must be identified.
The Includes and Excludes of a code are only listed in the Tabular; therefore, it is imperative that you reference the Tabular before selecting a code.
Pressure ulcers develop when the circulation to an area is decreased by the application of pressure to the area.
Many conditions reported in the musculoskeletal chapter are a result of previous injury or trauma to a site, or are recurrent conditions.

YOUNGSTOWN - The president and chief operating officer at V&M Star appeared visibly moved as he watched a video presentation filmed earlier this summer of the the new mill successfully completing its first billet piercing.
The video, filmed June 29 inside the Youngstown mill, ended with rousing applause from workers and onlookers.
''Every time I hear that applause I still get chills,'' said Joel Mastervich. ''We will be very, very successful. You can feel it. You can feel it in that video.''
Mastervich showed the short video presentation when he spoke publicly in recent weeks at the Youngstown Ohio Utica & Natural Gas Expo in Youngstown.
The pipe mill, under construction since the summer of 2010, is expected to be at full capacity by the end of next year, Mastervich said.
That is when the mill will be churning out pipes that will be used to reach natural gas pockets in the Marcellus and Utica shales. The premium pipe connections are made to prevent high-pressure gas leaks through the long string of casing as drillers punch holes a mile or more into the earth's surface to tap gas and oil-bearing shale rock deposits.
Those connections must be flexible, yet secure enough to withstand pressure as the drilling bends horizontally in different directions, a critical part of the process to extract as much gas and oil as possible from one drill site.
V&M had announced in February 2010 that it would construct its new mill next to its existing plant in the former Brier Hill Works of Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. The completed structure will be 1 million square feet, or almost 23 acres, under one roof.
The new plant will be capable of producing up to 500,000 metric tons of seamless pipe in small dimensions.
The smaller diameter pipe is needed in the drilling industry that is focused largely in eastern Ohio and Western Pennsylvania, helping the manufacturer to keep a corner on the market without high transportation costs.
Next in preparation for full operation will be a test of the rolling mill. The billet will be run through the rolling mill, known as the "fine quality mill'' or FQM. That is expected to happen some time this month, Mastervich said.
The company already has hired about 90 percent of its workforce needed to staff the new $650 million facility, creating a payroll of more than $46 million. That's up about 42 percent from a year ago,with more than 80 percent of the workers coming from the tri-county area, he said.
Still on the table is a new melt shop, where workers would melt scrap steel to make pipe. Mastervich previously has said only that the shop remains in the company's strategic plan.

The SN server implements part of a >password capability system, in such a way that any capabilities that >Alice (or whoever) entrusts to the SN server will be subject to the >limitations of password capability systems. Right. So, in a password capability system (e.g. Amoeba, NLTSS, ...) when you say the servers convey rights, they do so when presented with valid capabilities to the rights. Ditto SN. OK - now consider the possibility that Bob is somewhere else on the network. In fact one could go so far as to place Bob on a system where the form of the capabilities are data but in a form where the message passing system requires valid capabilities for communication (as you might have noticed I'm beginning to push). In other words, the form that the SN server returns must be in a form (or translatable into a form) that the TCB on Bob's system recognizes it as a right to communicate to the SN. Bob's public key comes in the message (essentially part of his "from" address). The SN server correctly produces a data capability for Bob and passes it down, as we agree, through the membrane. Now what? Can Bob fetch Foo from the SN? Of course if tries to and the SN is on the partitioned capability system (E?) where Foo resides then Foo will somehow have to pass over to Bob across the network. What about the case where SN is on a distinct machine on the network? Then when Bob makes the request on FMCSN and passes in FMCFoo, Alice's membrane service ends up passing Foo to the remote SN server. If Alice's system is a partitioned capability system then something like the DCCS makes the Foo rights available by itself tabling Foo locally and passing some sort of networked right to Foo across to the SN. Now Bob retrieves Foo by sending SNFoo to the SN server and gets back a networked version of Foo - though not FMCFoo as Alice's membrane attempt of course didn't recognize the SNFoo 'capability' as a capability as it went by. Does this seem to be getting a bit convoluted? I think so. I'm hoping to use that complexity in arguing for a simpler capabilities as data model (protocol) that can pick up the confinement value of partitioned capability systems in a TCB implementation supporting the protocol. We can all dream. --Jed http://www.webstart.com/jed/

|Here are some details about my project:
|Traditional, Retro / Vintage, Whimsical
What materials did you use? A mix of sweet fabrics including the Delilah collection by Tanya Whelan for Free Spirit and Cotton Couture solids in Candlelight (yellow) and Bright White. The green border is a print from True Colors by Heather Bailey. I used the Quick Point Ruler to make the dotty prairie point binding. The back is Minky Dimple Dot in a butter yellow color.
I'm partial to Tayna's fabrics, too. But the red and white polka dots is to die for. Really sets off the quilt.
Thanks so much! This was a really fun quilt to make :)
I love this. Fabulous job. Makes me want to make this quilt again LOL!
Thanks so much, Joanna! I'm so happy you love it! The pattern was so easy...and this was the first time I made Dresdens so I was super happy with the results :) I'm planning to make a larger one for myself! Thanks for the great class...it gave me courage to try this pattern and i know I'll be making it again and again!
I just finished attaching prairie points to the border of my quilt and have no idea how to finish the corners. Your quilt is so cute with the points! Any suggestions for finishing the corners? I have searched the internet to no avail. Thanks!!
Well, I couldn't find instructions either! I tucked the fabric edges under and if you look at my quilt, you'll see that you can see a little "bump" of the back fabric from the front and it looks okay. There is a lot of bulk there and I did trim back a little to eliminate some of the bulk before sewing. I don't know if this the correct way to do it, but it seemed to work! Good luck!
This is an adorable quilt ... after all that work, you even made a beautiful edging. Just wonderful!
Thanks, Mimi!

I was scared about moving back to the US recently, because of how I thought it was going to affect my attitude toward work.
In Flow, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi cites a study that across the board, knowledge workers report being happier and more often in a flow state at work. They were more likely to be dissatisfied and bored when they're alone or during leisure time.
However, they also across the board wish they had more leisure time. That is, they were asking for more time to spend in a lower state of being. I think most everyone that's a knowledge worker (applying that term liberally) enjoys working on challenging problems a lot more than watching TV.
But that's the cultural ethos that exists in America and the West around work. People are "punching the clock." I catch myself falling into that mindset sometimes and it scares the shit out of me.
That's part of what's so awesome about living in a very insular community like the entrepreneurial community in Saigon, Vietnam or Chiang Mai, Thailand. All the people that had bad attitudes only speak Vietnamese or Thai. And I don't speak any Vietnamese or Thai, so it was easy to separate from those people and that mindset.
Everyone that spoke English was way more engaged and motivated so I was surrounded by people doing interesting, exciting and meaningful work which made it easy to keep the mindset that work was pleasurable. It's a good reason to change your location.
And I would define work broadly and not necessarily something that results in a paycheck. People that work on interesting and challenging problems in general are likely to do the same when they're "on the clock."
I always feel awkward when people ask me how work is going. There's a choice between giving them the honest answer or the one they want.
What they want, and what I usually give people, is "good, thanks."
But often times, the truth is usually something more like, "It's awesome. I had this super interesting conversation with our software developer in Vietnam. We're figuring out how to best display the team login page for the new iOS software app we're working on so that site managers at valet locations can easily check their guys in and out and get accurate reports. Oh, and I got to learn photoshop so now I can do basic mockups myself."
What's interesting though, is that this is almost entirely an attitude problem and has surprisingly little to do with the actual work itself.
If I'm tired and worn out and felt like I didn't get anything done that day, the same enthusiastic conversation with our developer could be described as, "fine."
I think what Csikszentmihalyi says is true:
"A person can make himself happy, or miserable, regardless of what is actually happening "outside," just by changing the contents of consciousness. We all know individuals who can transform hopeless situations into challenges to be overcome, just through the force of their personalities. This ability to persevere despite obstacles and setbacks is the quality people most admire in others, and justly so; it is probably the most important trait not only for succeeding in life, but for enjoying it as well."
I noticed this working on a project this week. I spent a day working on what objectively is a mind-numbing task. I'm trying to figure out with a bunch of the different players in the credit card processing chain how we fit into the scheme so we can start accepting credit cards.
There's nothing pleasurable in the moment about trying to figure out how credit card processing works. It's an incredibly opaque system and no one is really incentivized to make it clear. However there's a lot of upside to being the guy that understands how mobile apps can integrate credit card processing.
You can see this looking at other people in similar fields.
Edmund John from Flag Theory has read more about foreign incorporation and tax law than anyone I've ever met. That's not something that seems explicitly pleasurable. But the result of that is there are a lot of really smart, interesting people that want to talk to Edmund.
Same with David McKeegan of Greenback Tax Services and Expat tax law. When I met David, he was running a very successful company with his wife from their villa in Bali.
It might be worth reading some tax law.
As Cal Newport says:
"Society, it turns out, doesn't care what you do for a living. It cares more about how well you do what you do."
In my experience, Cal is right. All the boring reading on SEO I did 2 years ago in between teaching English classes in Brazil got me a job at a marketing agency in Memphis.
Turning Meaningful Work into Flow
So how do you make work a flow experience? There seem to be 2 major components:
1. It should align with your long term goals.
"Many people consider their jobs as something they have to do, a burden imposed from the outside, an effort that takes life away from the ledger of their existence. So even though the momentary on-the-job experience may be positive, they tend to discount it, because it does not contribute to their own long-range goals."
This to an extent is an attitude issue, like in the case of Edmund or David McKeegan. They took the attitude that learning about foreign incorporation and tax law would allow them leverage to achieve things that were meaningful to them.
However, some work does just suck and is meaningless. If you spend all day filling out TPS reports, the answer might be to quit your job.
2. You should structure it properly:
The more a job inherently resembles a game—with variety, appropriate and flexible challenges, clear goals, and immediate feedback—the more enjoyable it will be regardless of the worker's level of development.
One of the best ways I've found to structure it is to use the Pomodoro Technique which essentially forces you to work on clearly defined tasks with clearly defined outcomes for set periods of time.
Leveraging Flow to Build Businesses
In Drucker's Collected Works on Management, he points out is that it's no longer enough for a company just to offer a salary and benefits to attract the best employees. They want to know what the mission of the company is. What it's striving for. The universe it wants to inhabit and help create.
What's exciting about this on a societal level is that more and more businesses are in a position to offer that. In fact, the market is demanding it. Not just employees demanding it from their corporations, but consumers are demanding it.
As technology increases transparency, it's increasingly important to consumers that they're doing business with people and companies that share their values.
Personally, I'm willing (and have) taken less money to work on projects and visions that are meaningful to me or that let me live more in congruence with my values. And I've paid more for products that have compelling stories.
I think some companies try to get cute with this kind of stuff by putting ping pong tables in the break room or having big comfy chairs in the break room. I like ping pong tables and big comfy chairs, but that's not what's going to drive the economy past it's limit.
What's going to power businesses that succeed in the coming economy is attracting and engaging people that think of meaningful work not as something they do from 9-5, M-F. But as a major source of purpose in their lives.

How to Complain to Your "Superiors"
Posted on January 29, 2012 | 13 Comments | Permalink | Email Article | Tweet
Very tactful for once. Mullet boss's feelings go unscathed.
At least Mullet Boss doesn't stink up the break room with fish every Friday.
I'm not sure whether Mullet Boss is a moron or a genius, either way I would not want to work for him.
Sometime I start laughing when I see your title in my feed reader, just anticipating where you're going to go with it. And yet I still get surprised.
I just realized ... Mullet Boss is wearing a toupee. Somehow that makes Scott more powerful and manly than toupee mullet boss.
Perhaps Mullet Boss is a genius in the most Machiavellian of ways... he forces everyone else back to work, while getting the break room to himself... DIABOLICAL!
Heh, read the first panel and automatically thought, "that should be whom, not who;" read the second panel and realized Scott knows both how the English language works, as well as how to write realistic dialog.
And the comic itself is funny, as well. Bonus!
The stinky lunch conundrum. I WISH that the smell would confine itself to the break room.
This is a surprisingly conciliatory edition of BI.
I'll admit that sometimes I think that if I had a large business, I'd gladly hire Mullet Boss to be one of the mid-level guys. As high up as possible without needing to be in the same state as me for most of the time. But then I see a comic with the angry customer, and I remember that moments like these are rare flashes from a dim bulb.
I wish there was a like button for comments. And comics alike. XD
Did Mullet Boss just win? Movies taught me that in (North) America, the underdog always wins.
Pointy-haired mullet!!
Funny how levelheaded the boss looks here. Some may relate to this kind of situation sometimes.

HandsTrackball - Kinect 3D object manipulation

We've seen XBox's flat 2D based Kinect NUI, but that's like wasting a whole "D"! We don't live in a flat world, so neither should our NUI's. Today's project responds to that and shows off controlling and manipulating 3D objects in a Kinect world.
I've created an implementation of a Kinect NUI Trackball which can be used for manipulating a camera around WPF 3D scenes. This "HandsTrackball" is adapted from the Trackball class included in the source code for WPF 3DTools. The original Trackball class allows you to use the mouse to rotate around a WPF 3D scene.
My HandsTrackball basically maps hand movements to what the original Trackball uses as mouse points. Some new ground rules as well as as some Kinect depth-to-screen point calculations are applied in order to make this all work.
The user's left or right hand can be used to rotate around the model. When the user moves their hand, a transform is applied to the camera viewing the 3D scene (the camera moves and the objects in the scene do not move). The camera only moves if the user's hands are at least a minimum distance away from the user's torso. The user can only move the camera when their hand is deliberately extended out from their body. This is a key constraint in order to make the HandsTrackball usable. It allows the user to put their hand(s) down to stop changing the camera angle and prevents accidental movement.

Wow this is probably one of the finest applications that uses the Kinect and actually is easy to use and understand. Great job!
This is the one what I finding. Great job. Thanks!
Code have tiny error when running this.
So I move "this.imageWorker = new BackgroundWorker();"
line 45 in MainWindow.xaml.cs.
to public MainWindow() {}, then everything work.
There is a run Error: in line 35 of MainWindow.xaml.cs :
if (!this.imageWorker.IsBusy), the value of "imageWorker" is null, why? and how to solve the problem? Thank you !

More than half of Android devices are powered by Jelly Bean
0. phoneArena 02 Nov 2013, 12:39 posted on
The latest figures are out and they reveal that more than half of all Android devices are powered by the Jelly Bean build of the OS; this includes Android 4.1.x to Android 4.3. The entire range of Jelly Bean flavored Android models now makes up 52.1% of the platform's population. Gingerbread, which covers Android 2.3.3 to 2.3.7, is next with a 26.3% share of Android models...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

I don't see how this post is related to the iDevices.. stop using that term iPhoneArena man. It just makes you immature. Heck, that term was coined up many years ago?! It's old, man.

Discontinuing support 4 Nexus devices after 18 months doesn't help. I thought Google supported Nexus phones as long as they were able 2
29. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
Nexus devices aren't supported for just 18 months, it's an 18 month *minimum*. The Galaxy Nexus actually got 21 months of support (October 2011-July 2013).
Also, Google did support the Galaxy Nexus as long as they were able to. After Texas Instruments left the industry, they've been giving limited support to their OMAP processors, I assume they've stopped supporting them altogether now. To try and develop an update for the Galaxy Nexus without proper support from the SoC manufacturer, it's more trouble for Google than it's worth, especially when a lot of Galaxy Nexus owners will just pick up a 4.4 custom ROM from XDA anyways.

51. marbovo (Posts: 658; Member since: 16 May 2013)
Its funny how people talk about this lack of support of the processor, but I've heard about just from the "expert forum users" not from Google
62. medicci37 (Posts: 1279; Member since: 19 Nov 2011)
Turns out a Dev going by baldwin77 or something like that, has released a kit kat rom. If he can I'm sure Google could if they cared too. Also, Google stated their 18 month support policy is why the stopped supporting the g Nexus
63. medicci37 (Posts: 1279; Member since: 19 Nov 2011)
Google is getting to be more like apple all the time
30. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Agree, if it is true then it is really sad and consumer treasonable! :(
But it still maybe just a trick to to increase Nexus 5 sales and after some time Google will update Nexus 4 to KitKat. Anyway I'm sure that XDA Developers will bring an solution.
54. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 805; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
Not providing OS update doesnt mean no support.. Google still provides other improvement updates to Nexus devices even when they cant provide new OS update..

Many of those are most likely Kindle tablets.

What about those cheap tablets powered with android from China...those are selling like hotcakes in Asia..all powered by gingerbread and those tablets don't support updates...how about that for consideration...
55. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 805; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
No.. basically most of them are cheap phones which were released with Froyo/Gingerbread and users dont bother to care about updates.. Those users use their devices for calling/texting/facebook and light gaming only... That suits them and they are not geeks like us.... :-)
6. mturby (unregistered)
The problem with android is that not everyone receives new android updates, as iPhone users do. p.s: I'm an android fan.
13. ilia1986 (unregistered)
How is that a problem? For whom? For a person who wants the latest version of android? He can install a custom rom provided his phone can run the latest android version. For a developer? He doesn't care too much since he's developing for multiple API levels anyway. For Google? Hell no. For the carrier? Nope.
This is not a problem.
14. mturby (unregistered)
the average android user dont even know what roms are, the issue is that u buy a brand new android phone, wich has either 4.0 or 4.1 a few months laters, u find out that ur friend has 4.2 or 4.3 and u r stuck on 4.0 forever unless u change the handset.
33. ilia1986 (unregistered)
Again - that's not an issue. You can root your phone and install a custom rom. I don't care about the average user. The average user plays candy crush and posts on facebook and cares little about the android version his\her phone has.
You want to have a newer android version? Want to phone not to lag? You got the option to do so. Install a custom rom. It's really is that simple.
37. mturby (unregistered)
so they wont notice the difference btween gb n ics or jb? ''Sorry, your device is not compatible with this app''. why not? -its GB OR ICS. u need Jelly bean. ok, let me call my carrier...thank you for calling xxxx...hey representative, update my phone!. -sorry we are not longer supporting your device, buy another one.
42. ilia1986 (unregistered)
Hey customer, why don't you install a custom rom in it? Or I can just tell you to buy a new phone and you might believe me... or if you're smart enough you won't and research a bit and install a custom rom and thus save your hard earned $$$.
45. mturby (unregistered)
u mean rooting my phone, getting the warranty voided and putting it at risk after the $200 dls paid only becausez android has an update issue along with the carrier? yeah right.
47. ilia1986 (unregistered)
1. As I said - it's not an issue. You can root and install a custom rom.
2. Your warranty typically lasts a year during which your phone is likely to recieve official updates anyway.
3. You can always unroot and flash a stock firmware again if you so desire.
4. Your argument fails logic as alternatively you would be forced to shell another 200$ to get a new phone in order to get the latest Android version. But like I said - you aren't.
48. Ninetysix (Posts: 2388; Member since: 08 Oct 2012)
Warranty refused cuz phone was rooted.
58. ilia1986 (unregistered)
Okay, so - root after your warranty is gone anyway.
41. Finalflash (Posts: 3109; Member since: 23 Jul 2013)
Doesn't matter, at least my 2 year old phones still function. Anyone with the new and amazing iPhone update on anything less than a 5 is screwed.
16. username45 (Posts: 5; Member since: 31 Oct 2013)
That's half a problem with Android itself (or Google, however you look at it), half with the manufacturer's.
For one, most Android OEM's don't actually care if their devices are updated, they just do it to look better, so 6-12 months of updates is usually enough, but not even guaranteed.
But it's also Google's responsibility to push OEM's to update their devices, which they don't do in order to keep them happy with the platform. And with the supposed "18 month update policy" they set a terrible example...
4.4 Kit-Kat solved one of the main issues with Android, specs requirements, but no Android version can solve the update issue, it's entirely up to Google to set some standards and make it damn hard for OEM's to get by without updating their devices.
And all this crap about lack of updates not being a problem: updates= new features, features= value, so more updates means more for your money, whether the consumer realizes what they are getting or not.
19. mturby (unregistered)
u r right bout that, the question is, will the carriers update capable phones to new 4.4 os if phones comply with the18 months google policy?...doubt it.
27. username45 (Posts: 5; Member since: 31 Oct 2013)
Thanks for bringing up carriers, forgot to mention them. And I don't think the 18-month policy applies to all android handsets, (although I don't think any handsets have been supported that long, save the GNexus) it's just some dumb thing Google has produced in order to kill off the Galaxy Nexus.
43. W.P._Android_in_that_Order (Posts: 208; Member since: 15 Feb 2012)
tldr on your comment. sorry
56. kabhijeet.16 (Posts: 805; Member since: 05 Dec 2012)
basically most users dont bother to care about updates.. Those users use their devices for calling/texting/facebook and light gaming only... That suits them and they are not geeks like us.... :-). That is why chart looks like that....
On iOS you are forced to update even if you dont want.....
8. rallyguy (Posts: 620; Member since: 13 Mar 2012)
No mention that Apple also has this problem to a lesser degree?
9. 14545 (Posts: 1545; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
I say this as an android user. But if the OEM's haven't updated that 26% of GB devices by now, why would that help in the future? Chances are they are "cheap" devices that the OEM's had no intention to support after release anyway. I just wish there was a way for google prevent the "skins" from being too deeply integrated and force the OEM's to make it where google can supply the updates to the core services in return for access to the play store other google services.
23. Leo_MC (Posts: 1512; Member since: 02 Dec 2011)
Galaxy Nexus is the proof Google is just the same as it's OEMs.
24. 14545 (Posts: 1545; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
I actually kind of agree. I'm sure we will get an unofficial build, but it would have been nice if google had at least officially supported the device for 2 full years. Maybe it is a TI issued as other have stated, but I doubt it. Google has the resources to take care of that if they cared to.
36. PBXtech (Posts: 1032; Member since: 21 Oct 2013)
Released 17 Nov 2011 and saw every release update from 4.0 to 4.3. How has Google not supported this device for two years?
Sprint and Verizon versions were screwed up by the carriers, which speaks volumes why newer Nexus phones were not offered on those carriers like they previously were.
25. mturby (unregistered)
no a chance! all of the nexus devices were and are receiving updates. nexus one, s, galaxy nexus, nexus 4...
34. PBXtech (Posts: 1032; Member since: 21 Oct 2013)
GNex is two years old. Most contracts are two years long, if someone has a GNex, they'll likely be getting a phone upgrade so it's not as big a problem as you make it out to be. Regardless, it still runs 4.3 which is a more than capable version of Android.
60. Leo_MC (Posts: 1512; Member since: 02 Dec 2011)
One has 1,5 - 2 years of updates from HTC or Samsung; why buy Nexus?!
64. PBXtech (Posts: 1032; Member since: 21 Oct 2013)
Stock vs. Sense vs. Touchwiz vs. custom overlays in general. Each has its advantages, customers have to determine what fits their needs to decide which to get.
44. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
This is like blaming microsoft for not letting me Windows 8.1 run on my MMX 200 desktop :D

its not about hardware. there r strong phones like the motorola droid razr that will remaing on jb.
49. Ninetysix (Posts: 2388; Member since: 08 Oct 2012)
What if we tell you that you can install Windows 8.1 on your MMX 200 with missing features. Features will be missing because we want you to have a good experience and not see the hardware limitation. Do you accept it or you're fine with running Windows 3.1/95 on your MMX 200?

Too bad the majority is 4.1 and not 4.3
31. Berzerk000 (Posts: 4275; Member since: 26 Jun 2011)
Well, 4.3 and 4.2 were pretty minuscule updates. The main features of the Jelly Bean version family are Project Butter and Google Now, which 4.1 users can enjoy.

Oh its not so bad.. Barring the rice, those three meals combined looks like a decent lunch....
I got an email today with a link to a video about what the magazine Eating Well advised was appropriate for a 1200 calorie day of food. It was pretty funny to compare that day to my day which comes in at 1264 cal with includes steak, chicken thigh, avocado, bacon and avocado and homemade mayo. Check out the video and then compare it to the food you will eat today. Sorry, it makes you watch a commercial first. Thank goodness for Primal!
What a 1,200-Calorie Diet Looks Like
Oh its not so bad.. Barring the rice, those three meals combined looks like a decent lunch....
If I was eating 1200 calories a day, I'd be wasting away... there are days where that's a MEAL, not a daily intake.
Peak weight on Standard American Diet: 316.8 lbs
Initial Weight When Starting Primal: 275 lbs
Current weight: 210.8 lbs
Goal weight: 220 lbs (or less): MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
The way "ChooseMyPlate.gov" should have looked:
How sad to think about having to measure 2 Tbs of hummus or count out 6 kalamata olives. And ONE wedge of Laughing cow cheese (light, of course)? I would be ravenous and miserble eating like that.
I almost don't bother making a meal if it isn't going to be at least 1200 calories.
That whole day would make me hungry, crabby and give me cravings. Where is the fat other than the oil at lunch? And it all looked pretty boring.
Yeah, those silly little girly meals will kill success every time. I have one big honkin' (for a girl) meal everyday, then spread whatever calories are left over to the rest of the evening. Even at 1500 or fewer calories per day, I can be totally satisfied. But ask me to eat a piece of salmon that's the size of a deck of cards, or to spread those calories over three CW meals, and I might as well go to the Goodwill now and pick up some size 20s because for me that's a total fail.

Who says back fat is a bad thing? Maybe on a hairy guy at the beach, but not on a crab.
What I found funny is that even Eating Well couldn't come up with a dinner that looked decent and was under 350 calories.
I know from experience that I start to go crazy eating like that. There's definitely no joy in food at all when I'm eating that way.
I've watched soooo many coworkers and family members try this approach: small plates with adorable little portions (photos proudly uploaded to social media of course). But energy balance always has the last laugh and they simply opt for complete denial about all the spontaneous extras: the office candy dish, Starbucks mocha on the bus, and 1000 kcal of cinema snacks don't even register.
