By pixie cut I do not mean a bob or something short. I'm talking about a real pixie cut.
I want to get a pixie cut (now don't say "do what you want", I am asking to get a general opinion about this) and donate my very long, undamaged, hip-length hair to kids who don't have hair for different reasons. I noticed that if a girl cuts her hair short, she will probably be judged, especially from guys. I know that long hair for some reason means femininity to men, but why would you judge someone just because they are not as feminine as you want them to be? A women should be respected with short hair as much as a guy with long. That may sound weird, but I hear many very negative comments about this and that's sad. :( Would you be attracted to someone who is not as feminine (or masculine, if you're attracted to men) as you expected them to be? What lengh of hair do you prefer on a girl?
Most Helpful Guy
I like looking at women who look more feminine, which makes me prefer longer hair.
If you can get the pixie cut without looking more like a man, go for it. A lot of girls can pull it off, and for some... well, it just doesn't work for me.
Can I be attracted to someone with short hair? Hell yeah. I dated a girl who went from long hair to a mohawk (caught me by surprise), and I still dated her, no matter how terrible I thought it looked.
Your hair doesn't define you, but it does define a PART of you, and I look at the whole picture.11|00|0

basically depends on your face shape, if you have a short especially heart shaped face it'll look adorable,
one cut definitely doesn't fit all. if you have a heart-shaped face, you can do pretty much anything. If you have a long face or a bigger forehead, you need something with less volume--it should be softer and more swept over the face. If you have a round face, then it's better to have more volume on top with a slightly longer length.
I've had an audrey hepburn esque pixie since I was 16 and no one ever called me a lesbian haha.11|00|0
Oval face shape?
You can try pixie cut with bangs. light, side swept one's. Careful not to get too short in the back. (As in pretty much buzzed short lol)
Oval shape is generally pretty forgiving, diamond and heart too.
It's round, triangle and long faces that have a lot of trouble finding a good pixie.
Take a look at Emma Watson's pixies.

Middle-age men still have higher rates of heart attacks and heart disease than middle-age women, but those gender differences appear to be narrowing, a study finds.
The findings follow earlier research, published in 2007, establishing that stroke prevalence among women ages 45 to 54 was double that of men of the same age. Together, the findings suggest "an ominous trend in cardiovascular health among midlife women," said the lead author of both studies, Dr. Amytis Towfighi, an assistant professor of neurology at the University of Southern California.

I just recently started dating my best friend. He really likes me and I thought I liked him too. When he asked me out I told him that I thought that I liked him but that I also liked another guy too. I was fine with dating this guy especially since the other guy was an old crush who had moved away and now didn't have any classes with me. But now he is back and I am positive that I like him more than the guy that I am dating. I feel completely different about my old crush: I always notice if he is there, I always want to talk to him, I get a tingly feeling when he touches me, and I get jealous when he talks to other girls. I am not sure if my crush likes me though and I know that my best friend really does. I don't know if I like him in that way anymore. It's unfair of me to keep dating him when I know that I like someone else more but I don't want to hurt his feelings and I am worried that it is too soon to end it. Besides like I said I don't even know if my old crush likes me. I don't know what to do. Should I keep dating my current boyfriend and see how it turns out or should I end it now before I get in too deep?
Most Helpful Guy
well one thing, guys get PISSED if a girl cheats on them. if your going to find out if your old crush likes you. you should let down your best friend softly, tell him "we can still be friends or something" then try to not act desperite or jealous when your near your old crush or he might think that your to desperite. this is my opinion choose what you wish but if you cheat, you won't have your best friend as a friend.00|00|0

Most Helpful Guy
Well, I happen to be Greek :-). I grew up in Switzerland but my dad is Greek and I have a double-citizenship and of course I still got much of the culture and mentality through my dad.
So, having said this... I would first of all like to say that as a tourist, you will most likely not get to experience any racism. It is true that some people in Greece are extremely racist (mainly the members of the neo-fascist party Chrysi Avgi) but then again, you have this everywhere. You've got UKIP in England, some weird pseudo-Nazis in the US, Geert Wilders in the Netherlands and tons of right extremists all over east Europe and Russia. The difference to Greece is that, as you said yourself, people in Greece are struggling very much. I have relatives there myself and to somebody who doesn't live there, it's almost impossible to even imagine what it's really like. My aunt and uncle work like crazy and yet they sometimes have so little money they can't even buy enough food for the family. My dad sends them some money every month but it's still a big struggle. It's absolutely unworthy of a European first-world country. Now, having said this, I should also say that even though racism exists in Greece, it is definitely no mainstream phenomenon. What I mean by that is that most Greek people are not racist. In fact, most of them like foreigners. The problem with countries in big financial crises is that they are generally in danger of political or religious extremism. There is also left-wing extremism in Greece. The difference is that left extremists only attack buildings but not human beings (except from the police). Also, if you're American, you will definitely not notice any racism in Greece. The neo-fascists are mostly pissed at people from the middle east and north Africa because they believe that these people are coming to Greece to steal Greek people's jobs.
I travel to Greece more or less regularly and I haven't encountered racist people so far. It also depends a lot on where you go to. Athens is probably the place where you'd be mostly likely to experience it. If you go on one of the islands, you're in the middle of the tourist area, so there's no racism at all. And if you travel through the countryside you will also notice that people there are actually incredibly sweet and hospitable. They invite strangers for a cup of coffee to their homes and stuff like that. Something that would never happen in western Europe or the US.00|00|0

Not Rick Carlisle, abruptly dismissed in Detroit because two doses of 50 wins couldn't heal his fractured relationships within the organization. Not even the coaches from NBA powerhouses who still have jobs can feel very safe. Sacramento's Rick Adelman and New Jersey's Byron Scott, who is about to work his second straight NBA Finals, are two more names from the Fraternity Of Twenty-Nine whose job security has been questioned at some stage this season. They know it will be questioned again next season, or worse, if their teams dare to decline from elitism.
That is coaching in the league today. That is the only conclusion when the math is this simple. The unnamed expansion franchise in Charlotte will be the NBA's 30th team, which made those Charlotte Whatevers the 10th team in the league without a coach as of Sunday night.
The math says that's precisely a third of the league. At least until the press conferences started Monday in Detroit and Cleveland take us down to eight openings.
And that's chaos, by any arithmetic, which is why we submit another team-by-team breakdown of the coaching roller-coaster, same as last Monday. Yes, roller coaster. Carousel is too tame a term these days.
Detroit Pistons
Of all the teams to land Larry Brown, who knew it would be the team to offer the least input on personnel decisions? In Detroit, that's Joe Dumars' domain, and still Brown agreed to join the Pistons within a week of bolting Philadelphia. Yet there will be serious heat on both guys, who won't be able to pass the Pistons off as gritty overachievers this time next year. Brown will be expected to make the Pistons a perennial Eastern Conference juggernaut (a paradox, we know) after essentially convincing Detroit to quickly expel Carlisle. Dumars, meanwhile, faces even more pressure, knowing his gentlemanly nature will come under some attack for making a change after two seasons of all that overachieving ... even though ownership is said to have wanted the change more than Dumars did. At least Detroiters know Dumars can take the heat. This is his boldest move yet, but not the first bold one, so you bet on Joe D. to make it work. He's going to have to work at it, though. The stories trickling out about Carlisle are disconcerting, but don't forget Larry can also wear on those around him.
Cleveland Cavaliers
Paul Silas, as we've said from the beginning, was the right choice all along, a better fit as a first coach for LeBron James than Jeff Van Gundy. If the Cavaliers weren't so far along in their search, having narrowed the choice down to Silas and Van Gundy, there might have been time for Carlisle -- a close friend of Cavs general manager Jim Paxson -- to make a late run. Of course, Carlisle isn't a better fit with LeBron than Silas, either. History says it's always tough to be the first coach for a young superstar, but that's what Silas is. Tough. He wanted this challenge badly and will be a fatherly coach for the kid.
Philadelphia 76ers
Telephone call for ... John Thompson? There's a TNT guy we know who can handle Allen Iverson. Otherwise ... Philly is scrambling. Portland's Mo Cheeks is the Iverson-tested coach it really wants, but the Blazers have yet to give into reason and grant Cheeks permission to speak with his old team. If the Blazers don't want to give Cheeks a contract extension, and they apparently don't, the right thing is letting him go to the Sixers. If it doesn't happen, Nets assistant coach Eddie Jordan might be the Sixers' only other sensible option ... unless Thompson still has a hankering for coaching in the NBA and not just calling the games. One guy you can rule out is Carlisle. Even after giving his rep a handy boost by joining Dumars at the Saturday press conference and somehow taking his firing so well, it's tough to see Carlisle as an AI guy.
Houston Rockets
The "premier job," as even Silas called it, will apparently be filled third or fourth at best. The Rockets are intent on taking a measured approach, even though that has resulted in their list of candidates being cut in half -- Brown and Silas found work elsewhere, leaving behind Van Gundy and Mike Dunleavy. Word is that Dunleavy is getting the stronger push from within the organization. Word also is that Van Gundy's talks with Houston, as in Cleveland, didn't go as smoothly as anticipated. Mind you, those are just words and things could change. As for facts, look for Dunleavy and Van Gundy to be summoned for second interviews shortly, because they're the field now.
Atlanta Hawks
It's still unclear when new owner David McDavid will assume control of the franchise, and there's suddenly a possibility that his Fort Worth neighbor -- Dunleavy -- will be unavailable by the time McDavid gets the franchise. In that event, as covered last here Monday, he'd undoubtedly make a call to Dallas' Don Nelson and offer Nellie two jobs. Trouble there is, the likelihood still remains that Nelson and Mark Cuban will come together on a contract extension spanning at least two seasons, after Cuban insisted that talks would be put off until after the season and after Nelson himself admitted that moving elsewhere and starting over doesn't sound all that appealing at 63. "Nellie knows I want him back," Cuban said. As for Nelson's request to spend two weeks recharging at his offseason home in Maui, Cuban said: "He was cool with how I wanted to handle the contract during the year, so I'm cool with him taking some time." The good news for the Hawks, if they miss out on the big names, is that their interim coach proved more than capable. After a 3-12 start replacing Lon Kruger, and with even less to play for at that point, Terry Stotts took Atlanta to a 21-19 finish, validating the suggestions in Seattle and Milwaukee that he was head-coaching material.
Toronto Raptors
This is arguably the best spot for Carlisle. The Raptors have always admired him and Vince Carter needs a coach who will push him a lot harder than Lenny Wilkens did. The issue, as always, is those Canadian dollars. The Raptors have looked exclusively at unheralded assistant coaches from other teams -- Carlisle aide Kevin O'Neill and Seattle's Dwane Casey, most notably, but several have been interviewed -- because they still owe $5 million to Wilkens next season. They reportedly can't afford to pay head-coach money to two guys, which is a shame. Making significant changes to a roster filled with gaudy contracts is going to be a lot tougher than the improvement Carlisle can inspire with better coaching. But if the finances aren't there, the Raptors have no shot at him. Carlisle, mind you, could also elect to wait until next season's openings -- Van Gundy, too -- in a world where good coaches with top teams like Adelman and Scott are seen as vulnerable and where Indiana's Isiah Thomas can't dodge the job-security questions no matter how many times Donnie Walsh announces he's safe.
Washington Wizards
The Wizards were seemingly poised to give Brown everything the Pistons didn't -- GM powers, maybe even an ownership slice -- and still never really had a shot. That's because they have no shot at Finals contention, as the Pistons do, which is what Brown wants most at his age. And like we said last week, there doesn't figure to be a long line of folks applying after the messy Abe Pollin-Michael Jordan divorce. At this point, the Wiz would be lucky to land the in-demand Jordan (Eddie) because they still also have to hire a personnel man. A quick resolution appears unlikely here.
The Field
Uncertainty still reigns in New Orleans, where the Hornets are faced with two choices. They can pick from a threesome of finalists that has put off some of their veteran players: Tim Floyd, Brian Hill and Mike Fratello. Or they can re-open the search, which could prove problematic with so many other teams looking and reputation for thriftiness and troublesome owners. ... The L.A. Clippers are likely to be the last team presently in existence to make a hire, although the Chicago pre-draft camp is where they first hooked up with their last coach, Alvin Gentry. So you can expect the Clips talk with some folks this week, with interim coach Dennis Johnson still a possibility to retain his job because that's the, uh, easiest route for owner Donald T. Sterling. ... Charlotte, with no team to field until the 2004-05, doesn't appear to be participating in the madness just yet. Perhaps the Whatevers are waiting for the roller-coaster to slow back down to carousel speed.

Author: Bonnie Compton Hanson
Located in: Santa Ana, CA
Submitted: July 14, 2007
Tell us a little about yourself. First off, I am this book's author (PS: The
author's name is missing on the book's site!).
This is the latest of my popular girls series.
I'm also author of 25 other books for children and adults (including an award winner), plus hundreds of published poems, songs, puzzles, and articles (24 in Chicken Soup books). I'm a pastor's wife, mother of three, grandmother of four. I've been a missionary, teacher, communications director for an investment firm, farmer, waitress, factory worker, encyclopedia salesperson, and much more. Now I spend a lot of time speaking to MOPS groups and mentoring other writers. I also speak at writer's conferences. Besides a B.A. in art, I have earned a Masters in Ministry in Christian communication. And I love kids!
What was your motivation behind this project? I've received so many dear fan letters from readers, I wanted to encourage other girls to be inspired by this latest Ponytails book. I made my decision for Christ when I was 10, and I want to encourage my readers to take His claims seriously and ask Him into their hearts--and find love, hope, peace, guidance, and power to live the right kind of life. And to know that God never puts them down for being girls. He made them and is proud of them!
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? Besides genuine page-turning entertainment, I hope that the thousands of Ponytail Girls fans will continue to see that being a Christian is not a downer, but a joy, with fun, adventures, and challenges. And to see that God loves all girls, no matter their race or background.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? The young girls I know and meet, especially at our church, at the local school where I volunteer, and my own granddaughter. And of course I was once that age too!
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: Here's a brief synopsis: When Sam, LaToya, and the other Ponytail Girls learn about their city's new talent contest, they can hardly wait to enter. Basketball, music, science, gymnastics- -they're sure they'll win lots of prizes! Then a new girl moves in with a sick mother and father overseas. Their beloved Sunday school teacher loses her job. More problems come--including a storm that floods out their friends at a nearby farm. But finally it's time for the contest. They do their best--then comes a surprise! The latest adventures of these popular multicultural tween girls, also featuring puzzles, recipes, games, art projects, Bible stories, and more!

|The Open Door
Nikos Hadjikyriakos-Ghikas (1927)
the stuff
deep and useless
dirtied poets relish
their recipes for stone
the children's sweetness
is afraid of
go on
devour your fill
of sugar*
When I pause to consider the pros
of my alternate reality
my mind sweeps to the day a door
between worlds opened
I wanted full knowledge whatever the cost
to present sanity
self-knowledge begins at the sepulcre
doesn't it
once part of you has been interred
along with the icons
and putting aside of childish things
for good
and it's too late to unlike the process
causality prefers
I hadn't heard from you in a while and when you called my hands were lost in the grisly dishwater. Hard to know what to say at such times, so I blurted out that you'd caught me in the middle of a hot flash and instantly regretted that I had shattered your decade's old image of a sexier me. Then I didn't regret it. We are scarcely likely to meet again. 'Life is an experiment,' you said. I had a vision of glass pipes and bulbous test tubes and me as the last powdered element to be cast over the purple flame. No explosion. We were always non-lovers but occasionally bored.
This (highly) experimental piece is the result of a week's worth of reading and contemplating various writing prompts (and a debilitating lack of purpose on my part). I acknowledge that the end result may be abstracted to the point of being garbled but I lay it down at my readers' feet nonetheless.
My sources of inspiration are by no means responsible for the chaos.
Get Listed! features the poetry of W.B. Yeats. This is my source for all titles used.
The Sunday Mini-Challenge features the poetry of *Pablo Neruda from which my part entitled Monuments constitutes a 'found poem'.
Lastly, my reading of Nice Cage Issue #3 encouraged me to try something different.

Within the framework of the "University Alliance for Sustainability", Freie Universität Berlin, together with its four strategic partners, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Israel), the University of British Columbia (Canada), St. Petersburg State University (Russia) and Peking University (China), will focus on sustainability as a comprehensive topic for collaborating in research, teaching, and campus management. The new alliance will be under the patronage of Prof. Dr. Dr. Klaus Töpfer, Executive Director of the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS) Potsdam.
Freie Universität Berlin and its strategic partners see it as their responsibility to actively shape the discourse on sustainability and to meet global challenges with activities in all parts of the university. Forming this network under the topic of sustainability is a great chance to further develop structures to work with our most important partners worldwide.
From 2015 on, the University Alliance for Sustainability will be funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and use the partners' complementary strengths to develop joint research and teaching projects, offer exchange options for faculty, staff, and students, and foster inter-institutional learning with regard to management issues. To this end, the partners will develop joint undergraduate and graduate degree programs. Student initiatives will be able to network with their counterparts at other universities. Funding will also be available for research stays for researchers, summer schools for PhD students, conferences on the topic of "Green Campus" for management personnel, and several study and internship abroad options.
The Alliance's funding was won in a competitive call: the DAAD program "Strategic Partnerships and Thematic Networks" supports universities in building and developing partnerships as well as creating thematic networks with institutions abroad. During this funding period, 89 German higher education institutions applied for funding of up to 250,000 euros per year. A total of 28 projects will be supported for a maximum of four years, among them 10 strategic partnerships. With its Thematic Network "Principles of Cultural Dynamics," Freie Universität had already been successful in this funding program's last call in 2013, and is thus one of only six German universities being funded for both a thematic network and a strategic partnership. The program is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
For 2016, the University Alliance for Sustainability will offer the following exchange schemes for study and research stays at the four partner universities under the thematic framework of "Governance for Sustainable Development". Please note that the exchanges have to be completed in 2016, a separate call for 2017 will be published later this year. Further information on the different actions and funding opportunities can be found on the UAS website.

You purchased your LS400 because its a reputation for safety and Japanese engineering struck a chord inside you; so why would you be okay with second rate when it comes to the highest quality auto parts? Lexus car, truck, or SUV owners have become used to a certain level of a reputation for safety when driving their LS400 around town. While it's not hard to locate replacement parts for Lexus vehicles, these days only the highest quality are required to fix your automobile. Car aficionados appreciate the luxury built into each Lexus, and know that only the best replacement LS400 parts will suffice when maintenance needs to be done.
You never realize what you've got until it's gone, and the same is true for your power steering. You can consider your power steering pump the heart of your Lexus LS400 steering system, as it is responsible for pumping hydraulic fluid through the lines. Your Lexus LS400 power steering pump is connected to the pulley on the crankshaft via a drive belt, and derives its power by borrowing the crank's momentum. It assists your steering by compressing the hydraulic power steering fluid and sending it to the steering gear. You will notice a gradual loss of your power steering if the power steering pump is leaking, but if it seizes you can expect no power steering at all.
Procuring new Lexus parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the highest quality original and aftermarket replacement LS400 parts on the internet. When your Lexus requires the best replacement Power Steering Pump, there's no need to trust any store other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. Don't let a Power Steering Pump repair bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't gamble with its condition by using anything but the best replacement parts. Just choose your year from the list below to find the right Lexus LS400 Power Steering Pump for your 2000, 1999, 1998, 1997, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993, 1992, 1991, 1990 model.

We have an HP Laserjet P4015n. We have had it for about a year or two now as it is just out of warranty. Just recently we have started having some random print quality issues. It has started to duplicate the image down the page. Here is what we have done with it:
- Replaced Toner a couple of times and put an HP Genuine Cartridge in it
- Replaced the Fuser several times as well. Not sure if we ever put an HP one in as we normally just use the refurbished ones and have never had a problem with them
- Spoke to a tech and they said it was either the DC Controller or the High Voltage power supply. We bought refurbished ones of both.
The end user said the print quality has gotten a little bit better but it still duplicates the image down the page and it is random when it does it. Not always the first print, now always in the middle of printing, not always the last print. Mostly when the printer does NOT duplex a page. We are at a loss on this one and it is an expensive printer. The tech said anything we do now is just throwing parts at it. Has anyone else had this problem with this model or heard of problems with this model? Any suggestions as to what we can try next?

Have you replaced the transfer roller?
Nov 18, 2011 at 8:39 UTC
HP usually can tell you what part is at fault based on the distance between the duplicate image and the original.
Sounds to me like the toner isn't getting fused and it's then coming off onto another roller then repeating. Can you smudge the print easily or is it definitely fused?
I'd open up the printer to see if I could see evidence of the duplicates, even if I had to sit and print at it until the issue occurred.
I think you've probably replaced more than you should for the age of this printer, I'd guess we only replaced the fuser in our 10 year old LJ5000's maybe six times.
Check the printer control panel or web admin and see if there's a cleaning page you can run. See if there's any evidence of toner inside the printer on rollers, pickups, etc.

I think you've probably replaced more than you should for the age of this printer,
Isn't the P4000 family realitavely new? Our P4014 is only a few years old... oh, I see what you are saying. The printer is rather new, and maybe he's replaced too much for a new printer... I get it.
I had this issue with an older 1300 and the solution was the transfer roller for me.

Not like we have spent a ton of money on the parts. The fusers were sent back and we got credit, the dc controller and high voltage was only like a total of $120 and we did the work ourselves.
I did find their page and with it being every 3.75 inches it should be the fuser. But in the case you replace the fuser and that doesnt fix it, then the fuser is not heating up properly and that would be the high voltage board but the dc controller tells the high voltage board what to do which is why we have done everything.
I dont see any trace of extra toner on the rollers or anything like that. I have tried printing like 50 pages off at a time and they all come out clean so I will let it go for a bit and go back and do the same thing and they are all still fine. When one does screw up it will only be like maybe 3 pages in a row and then its perfectly back to normal for who knows how many pages.
The printer is but isnt old depending on the view you look at. It only has 250k pages printed on it so it still has a long life ahead of it. It is one of our highest volume printing machines.

I ran your issue past our tech support. Assuming all the parts that you have used to try and fix the printer were in good working order, they suggest like Benhar did replacing the transfer roller. When you do replace it, make sure to use OEM. It is very challenging to find an aftermarket transfer roller for this machine that will live up to the standards that you are looking for. This part is relatively inexpensive and should fix the ghosting issue.
I attached our QRG "Quick Reference Guide" for models P4010, P4015, and P4515.
I hope this helps.
Nov 21, 2011 at 7:15 UTC
either the fuser or toner cart. replace both (toner cart first as thats cheaper ;-)
Nov 21, 2011 at 8:06 UTC
Well, I havent got the new transfer roller in yet but today it now gives me the 50.2 error......
Nov 21, 2011 at 8:14 UTC

That error has to do with the fuser. Did you replace it or a tech? Possible a cable came loose or something.
Nov 23, 2011 at 12:13 UTC
well..... replaced the fuser AGAIN and looks to have solved the issue. Guess we had 3 bad fusers in row on this printer....

Samsung Galaxy S7 edge vs Google Nexus 6P: first look
13 Comments

Nexus 6P VS S7 Edge
No expandable storage (microSD card slot)
No water and dust resistant
No Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) for the camera
Lacks wireless charging
No Thermal spreader (Water-cooling technology to avoid the phones overheating)
Poor battery life- The large 5.7 inch display is an AMOLED capacitive touchscreen but not a Super AMOLED which is found on the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+. Comparison wise the Super AMOLED consumes less power which can save the battery juice a lot and more importantly it have better viewing angles than a standard AMOLED, but sadly its ain't any with Nexus 6P.

No $780 price tag...fixed it for you.

Don't listen to S.Kumuran
As someone who can openly admit the S7 edge seems like a far more advanced and capable device, the Nexus 6P is the best I've used to date. It has been the smoothest and most consistent Android experience I have ever come across.
Also, I wouldn't call 6-8 hours of SOT bad, which is what I get on my 6P.
So yes, the S7 edge is a hell of a phone that I do plan on buying, but let's not forget how great of a phone the Nexus 6P is.
7. Podrick (Posts: 1142; Member since: 19 Aug 2015)
I actually agree with you on this. S7 edge is a great device, but lets not take anything away from Nexus 6P, its one hell of a phone. Lets see what 6P's successor brings to the table.
3. cdm283813 (Posts: 424; Member since: 10 Jan 2015)
You forgot 810 vs 820, Gear VR, Samsung pay and smaller footprint.
The only plus is that Nexus 6p will have Android N before any other Android phone. And the price will most likely hit $400 in the next month or 2. But I would still get the Edge plus.
6. VZWuser76 (Posts: 4783; Member since: 04 Mar 2010)
I've had a 6p since about a month after launch. It hasn't overheated yet.
SuperAmoled is a marketing term used by Samsung to distinguish a panel that has the display and digitizer in one piece rather than two separate ones. Doesn't have anything to do with a better display, it just allows for a thinner component.
It's a little early to talk about battery life when you have no experience with the S7, Edge or not. And if it follows my experience with Samsung, battery will be great for the first few months and by about a year's time it'll be about half of what it initially was. The only difference here is the battery isn't removable.
10. Scott93274 (Posts: 5396; Member since: 06 Aug 2013)
If it weren't for Touchwiz, I would go with Samsung, but because of that it'll always be behind the Nexus line, for me at least.

Unlike you I actually own a Nexus 6p.
- Why do I need expandable storage? 64-128 gb is more than enough. Where were you when Samsung removed this? The S7 hasn't even came out yet. The 6P, like the S6, has been out since 2015.
- The phone does have water and dust resistance. Do the research. Look this up on reddit: reddit.com/r/Nexus6P/comments/3zhpyg/nexus_6p_water_resistant/
-No OIS? Big deal. The phone costs under $600. Samsung with its corporate greed charges over $700. Ridiculous price for a phone. The 6P has an amazing camera and takes amazing photos. The 240 FPS videos also come out amazing.
- Again, big deal. Wireless charging isn't as relevant as people make it out to be. Some people who just fine with plugging in their phone and leaving it charge for 20 minutes (which is all you need with the Nexus 6P to get an appropriate charge. Its charging is fast)
- Awesome how you have a disregard for facts. I have gamed a lot on my Nexus and have had it for quite some time now and have not experience any overheating. That "pro" you posted with the Galaxy is just plain illogical. Surely you could think of something better?
Poor battery life? Again, have you even touched the Nexus? On a full day of intense usage (with a lot of gaming involved) the phone hasn't ever died out on me. So as someone who has actually used the phone, the battery life is just fine. And 10 minutes of charging does get you a lot. Even without the charging the phone is reliable.
It seems that you did not weigh the pros and cons correctly, as your points made do not have much merit. Especially since the S7 hasn't come out. This isn't saying that the S7 is inferior to the 6P. That would be an illogical statement, this is saying that your comparisons are lousy.
12. siduaoisud (Posts: 9; Member since: 26 Nov 2015)
Also, the water resistance is just a gimmick. Samsung is using it as an advertising scheme to grab more consumers. Just like Apple, Google isn't using water resistance in its advertising realm. That does not mean the phone is not water resistant. It's called advertising. Samsung for all you know could be exaggerating like usual to gain more consumers since the smartphone market is taking a hit.
5. EricE (Posts: 1; Member since: 22 Feb 2016)
I think you need to have the editor look over this article again. There's some stuff missing that looks like it was the victim of a bad copy/paste. Seems like some important information is missing that I'd like to read. Might want to check these areas:
"The proven Adreno 430 GPU will, naturally, take care of any graphics-oriented tasks you may throw at it. And in reality There are be a few different non-expandable storage options available: 32GB, 64GB, and 128GB – a choice that sounds reasonable enough."
"For the Galaxy S7 edge, Samsung has opted to go with a 12-megapixel rear camera, which is accompanied with notable features such as an f/1.7 aperture lens and a brand new. Combining those elements with a "Dual Pixel"..."

Didn't like the Note5, due to no SD and removable battery.

I had Created Computer Configuration GPO and applied to one OU in that OU i had not move Computer directly instead of that i had created one Security Group in that OU. The Group name is BD_Grp and in that i had added Computer.
Now it is possible that if i apply my 'Computer related GPO' to that OU, than it will apply to my Computer account also ( which is in BD_Grp Security Group )
Please see the Print-screen attached.
I hope you will understand my query, if not please ask me a question, I will reply.
Thanks & Regards,

The GPOs are applied to Computers or Users only.
The way to accomplish what I think you are looking for is to apply the GPO to the OU containing the Computers and the Security Filtering option on the GPO to limit it to only members of that group.
(also keep in mind that group membership changes on computer may not take effect until the machine is rebooted)

The fact is that physical development starts at different times and progresses at different rates in different people. So, the beginning of the development that comes with puberty varies from person to person — and that's completely normal.
For both boys and girls, it usually takes several years after the first changes of puberty begin before they're all complete — and there's a lot of variation from person to person. So, two normally developing guys or girls who are the same age can appear quite different from each other. One can look older and more physically mature than the other. But the one who started later will catch up in time.00|00|0

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
Retailers enjoyed a solid 2009 holiday season considering the economic climate, but estimates indicate consumers will return to reduced spending habits in early 2010. Small businesses in general are still hurting, with the Small Business Optimism Index decreasing 0.3 points to 88.0 in December according to the National Federation of Independent Business.

 Although business owners cannot control how much consumers are spending or how the government handles the economic crisis, they can implement simple strategies to maximize their employees' efforts. One way to remain competitive and build on 2009 sales numbers is to use sound accounting principles to motivate employees and improve revenues in 2010.

 The key to a successful year is a detailed accounting plan complete with weekly goals and targets. Whether you have an in-house accountant or use an outside bookkeeper, remind them that monthly accounting practices are not sufficient, especially with other holidays approaching such as Valentine's Day, Easter, and Mother's Day. In particular, consider employing the following accounting principles to motivate employees and ensure a successful year:

 1. Use past sales numbers to create a 2010 plan based on specific sales, volume and net income goals. This may sound obvious, but too many small businesses fail to set sales and income goals every year. Keeping your 2009 numbers in mind will help you set realistic goals.

 In his book, "Attitude is Everything," Paul J. Meyer says goals should be SMART—Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Tangible. By setting SMART accounting goals for the year and sharing them with employees, your business is much more likely to find success instead of wandering aimlessly.

 2. Share weekly and monthly performance goals with all staff and provide incentives and rewards for achieving those goals. It is essential to include your employees in setting and achieving sales goals. Explain the goals to them, why you think they are realistic, and then provide a monetary incentive if they meet those goals.

 Consider holding a monthly meeting and rewarding successful employees in front of the entire team. The reward doesn't have to be expensive—employees will appreciate the recognition in front of their peers with just a small token of your appreciation such as movie tickets or lunch with the boss.

 3. Compare sales performance goals to actual performance on a weekly and monthly basis and review the results with employees. Again, you would be surprised how many retailers simply use accounting to track sales, rather than as a tool to improve sales. By comparing goals to performance, and reviewing the results with employees, you will be more likely to meet or even exceed them.

 When you meet with employees to compare goals to actual results, consider holding a brainstorming meeting on how to improve the numbers next month. Including employees in the planning process empowers them, and you might hear some great ideas.

 4. Determine sound accounting policies for promotions that will increase store volume and revenue per customer. Free offers such as free shipping, gift wrapping, gift with purchase promotions and complementary product packages can have a big impact on sales, and a small impact on the books.

 You can extend these promotions to your employees by offering incentives. For instance, if you offer a free gift with purchase, offer a reward to the employee who issues the most free gifts.

 5. Promote your gift card program. Estimates indicated more than 10 percent of holiday sales were for gift cards. More and more retailers are offering gift cards because they promote their specific brand, and commonly result in increased revenues when the consumer wants to avoid leaving a balance on the card.

 Train your employees to suggest gift card purchases, and even consider offering a reward to the employee who sells the most in gift cards. If you set specific, measurable gift card goals for 2010, your employees might be more likely to suggest them to customers when they are searching for a gift.

 More than 28 percent of businesses declaring bankruptcy cite problems with the financial structure of the company as the main cause of failure, according to a Small Business Administration study, "Financial Difficulties of Small Businesses and Reasons for Their Failure." With a good bookkeeper or CPA, you can ensure a successful 2010 by setting realistic goals for the year. Then, use those goals to inspire employees and reward them as they meet expectations and help your business prosper this year.

This was really fun to make. I saw this on a website and it was actually a cushion but i adapted it to be a wall hanging.
The border was a fun log cabin style block and the owl was steamateamed on then zig zag stitched around to secure it.
The butterflys had lost of beads added to bring them alive.
Adorable! I love owls.
Too cute, just way too cute.
Love,Love,Love this I want one
Really Cut!!! I love Owls.
This is so adorable! I love the colors...so sweet!!
Sew sweet! Love it!
This is absolutely adorable. I love the colors. What pattern, if any, did you use? My best friend is moving, she loves owls and I would really like to make one for her as a going-away gift. Thanks for sharing this wonderful project.
It was one that i made myself. I have also made a much simpler one just using a block border, It was so fun to make. You could do a log cabin border. The fabrics were from Riley blake they had fantastic colours.

Countries » Trinidad and Tobago » Getting Around
There are two options for travel between Trinidad and Tobago - by ferry and by air.
Travelling by air will cost TT$300 (US$50) round trip or TT$150 one way per person. There are twelve flights per day. Flight time is approximately 25 minutes each way. Caribbean Airlines runs the service.
There are two types of ferry service - fast and conventional.
Travelling by fast ferry costs TT$50 one way and TT$100 return. Vessels are the T&T Express and The T&T Spirit, which are both owned by the Port Authority of Trinidad and Tobago. The journey is approximately 2.75 hours. The Express is the faster of the two ships, but the Spirit is newer and has better facilities.
Travelling by conventional ferry costs TT$37.50 one way and TT$75 return, but the journey is approximately 5.5 hours. Vessels are the MF Panorama and Warrior Spirit.
Vehicles can be taken aboard the ferry, but this incurs a different charge which varies by size and weight. A return trip for a private car costs TT$350. This includes the cost of the driver. You are unlikely to be able to take a rental car on the ferry since you need to show vehicle registration documents.
From 1 November 2009, only tickets for same day travel can be purchased at the ferry terminals in Port of Spain and Scarborough. For advance tickets, you must purchase tickets from some select travel agencies - at peak times tickets sell out quickly, particularly for vehicles. For ferry schedules and travel agencies, see the Port Authority website.
Taxicabs are simply normal passenger cars with no special markings. However, their license plates start with the letter "H". They are found at Taxi stands which may be at a street corner or at the side of the road. Taxi stands in the cities and boroughs are usually marked, but outside of the city they are not. However, one can hail a taxi from the side of the road and ask where they are going and the fare before hiring the taxi. One pays for an individual seat and the taxicabs are shared, but a whole car can be hired if so desired, and if there are not a lot of passengers waiting. Airport taxis are an exception to this in that one almost always has to hire the whole car.
There are larger taxis, called "Maxi Taxis" or simply "Maxis" that go along a specified route. These are similar to mini buses and are painted white or beige and have a colored band around them. Each maxi usually holds approximately 11 or 25 passengers. The colour of the band indicates the area in which they travel. They have their own taxi stands and terminals. In Port of Spain, the maxis depart and arrive at the City Gate terminal, and in San Fernando they depart and arrive at the bus terminal at King's Wharf. These Maxi Taxis travel to the east, south and central areas of the island. In order to travel to the west there are a few designated areas such as the Diego martin/Petit Valley/Carenage/Chagaramas maxi stand located a few kilometers away from City Gate. If so desired, a maxi taxi can be hired for a whole day on a chartered trip. These can be negotiated directly with the maxi taxi drivers in advance. Prices vary.
Gypsy cabs are available as well. Locally they are called "PH" because they are private cars illegally used for hire. Use caution as "PH" drivers have been linked to crime including murder, kidnapping and robbery and carry no insurance for hired passengers.
Buses are run by the Public Transport Service Corporation (PTSC) owned by the Government of Trinidad and Tobago. Buses and bus tickets are available at City Gate in Port-of-Spain, King's Wharf in San Fernando and various other terminals and bus stops. A ticket is required to board the bus. Bus drivers do not accept cash or credit cards.
There is now a domestic ferry operating on the island of Trinidad between the two main cities of Port-of-Spain in the north and San Fernando in the south. The ferry ride is approximately 45 minutes between destinations and a one-way trip costs TT$15 (approximately US$2.50).
Car rental is widely available, and driving is on the left side (British style). There are several companies that rent cars including international chains such as Budget and Hertz. There are also local companies such as Auto Rentals, Kalloo's and many others. It is best to reserve a car in advance. However, one can rent a car at the airport upon arrival. The license plates of rental cars are usually designated with an "R" (meaning "Rental") as the first letter. Some private individuals will rent cars with plates designated with the letter "P" (meaning "Private"), but this is an illegal practice and it is better to rent a car with an "R" plate. However, it is becoming common practice for criminals to target drivers of rental cars since many locals seem to believe all foreigners are rich. So more and more car rental firms are now outfitting their cars with "P" in hopes that it would disguise the fact that the car is actually a rental.
Beware of drivers who do not follow the laws of the road. They may not stop at red lights, and make unannounced turns whenever, wherever! If you're only accustomed to right-side driving (US/ Canada/ Cont. Europe) strongly consider not driving at all. Basically, it is driving based on common sense. Drive to stay alive. If you foresee the possibility of unpleasantness, especially one that can turn into a road rage incident, avoid it.
Speed limits are in effect (80 km/h on highways), but rarely enforced. In fact, the police use timers, not radar, to catch speeders. It is a fun experience, if you can drive well, to enjoy the roads especially late at night or early morning. Avoid speeding on the main highways in rush hour or around the Queen's Park Savannah at any time. Other than that, chances that you will be pulled over are next to nil.
Although you will see many drivers doing it, it is against the law to make a left turn on Red (equivalent to a right turn on red in Left Hand Drive countries such as the United States). U-Turns are also illegal.
Taxis and Maxi Taxis in particular have been linked to a lot of crashes and traffic deaths. They will often stop without warning to pick up or drop off passengers, make risky maneuvers and generally drive recklessly. While these may illegal, the police don't seem to bother them except for occasional spot checks and road blocks. Police action involving Maxi Taxis and Taxis usually happens when they cause serious traffic problems, in which case, it is not uncommon for the Police and the town or city to relocate the Maxi Taxis.
People will also park their vehicles in the middle of the road where there is no shoulder. Wait until the opposite lane clears, then go around the parked car.
In more populated areas, such as the cities of Port of Spain and San Fernando, watch out for pedestrians, as jaywalking is the norm. Pedestrian crossing traffic signals are few and far between. Additionally, they require people to push the button in most cases. Most people don't bother and just wait for traffic to clear, or run across the road. Be cautious as hitting a pedestrian, jaywalking or not, can land you in more trouble than hitting a car.
Driving without insurance or with crooked insurers is fairly common. Sadly, it is not enforced as it is in the US or Europe. Use caution and try to avoid an accident as the other person may not have insurance, or their insurance may not be willing to settle with you.
Many road signs are old and not highly visible. Distances are marked in kilometres. Some rural areas off the main highways may have homes whose ground floors are paved with cow dung and dirt, called "leepay." However, this trend is fast disappearing as Trinidad on a whole becomes more wealthy.
If planning to go to the other side of the island (Trinidad), get an early start and allow the entire day with nothing important scheduled for the late afternoon. Although the island is not huge, getting somewhere can take longer than you might think. With the influx of used cars from Asia (locally called "foreign used") cars and the growing economy, more people own cars than ever. Therefore traffic jams are not uncommon, especially when going to Port of Spain.
