Switching from Android to iOS? 11 tips to help make the move
Summary: Thinking about switching from an Android to an iPhone? iOS 8 could be the right time to say goodbye to the Google OS.
2 of 11Image
Tip 1: Android-style keyboards will be available soon
Ever mulled making the move from Android to iOS? Here's a series of tips to help you decide whether to switch to move to Apple's OS, or stick with Google's.
With the arrival of iOS 8 just around the corner, Android handset owners will soon have fewer reasons to resist hopping over (or back, as the case may be) to the iPhone.
Android owners take for granted the freedom to switch keyboards, add widgets, and install new or even multiple launchers to customise their device. For the most part, Apple has made the decisions on these elements for users, limiting iOS to a few wallpapers and built-in features like the iOS keyboard, which hasn't been revamped since the first iPhone.
The launch of iOS 8 itself will bring two major changes that should make iPhone owners less likely to move to Android, and give Android users one fewer reason to resist a jump to Apple.
First, the keyboard is getting a makeover with new predictive text functionality, which should allow users to write whole sentences with just a few taps, according to Apple. The keyboard will suggest the the next complete word in the sentence being typed, a change from the current method where it just offers to complete the current word itself. Its predictive engine is customised for context too, adopting a more casual tone in Messages and a more formal tone in Mail.
The bigger change in iOS 8 is that Apple has made the keyboard an app rather than a fixture, meaning Android afficinados can choose to swap out Apple's own keyboard for any number of third-party keyboards.
Android users, most likely with larger screen devices than the iPhone 5S, will already be familiar with swipe keyboard apps that can be faster and more accurate than fumbling around a screen to hit iOS' soft keys. Third party keyboards desiged for two-handed typing could also help improve typing on what's expected to be the larger screen iPhone 6. A few that should be coming soon to the App Store include Swype, SwiftKey, and Flesky.

Tip 2: Widgets are on the way
Widgets can be great for bringing live information to the surface from weather, social, stock and news apps, allowing you to catch key bits of information without having to open an app.
Previously, the only way around the lack of widgets in iOS was to jailbreak the device or buy fake widgets, which use the 'badge app' icon to provide live updated information.
These workarounds won't be necessary when iOS 8 arrives, offering developers the ability to add widgets to their apps.
Android to iOS switchers will find a completely different way of handling widgets and one that still doesn't quite offer the flexibility to plaster the homescreen with large widgets. Instead, widgets will live within the iOS 8 Notification Center, Apple's alert hub for messages in iOS and OS X.
Specifically, widgets will become part of the dropdown in the Notification Center's Today menu, where basic at-a-glance information is drawn from an app that has a Today extension.
So, users will be able to add widgets in the Today view for those apps and can edit them in the Today view to add, reorder and remove widgets.
Whether Apple's way of containing widgets in the Notification Center is popular with Android users remains to be seen, but it does finally address a capability that Android users have come to expect from a modern smartphone.

Tip 3: Consider Accompli for Mail
Anyone that left iOS for Android in recent years will be pleased to know that search in Mail does work reasonably well now. For Gmail users, it's therefore not as necessary to install the Gmail app just to find an email that's not stored locally.
But there are notable limitations to Mail on iOS. Unlike the native Android Mail app, Mail on iOS cannot attach files to an email. To send photos for example, the user must go to the Camera app, select forward, pick a photo and then choose Mail. It's minor but annoying obstacle to do something that's standard on desktop and on Android.
Fortunately, Acompli, a relatively new email app for iOS, will let you send locally stored attachments from within the app, in addition files that have been recently sent or received.
While adopting Android's more visual approach to email, the app also borrows from the iOS Mail app's archive action, using a swipe left action to bring up delete or archive email.
The app includes an easy way to send a contact your calendar availability or a map of your current location, as well as manage your calendar through the app, cutting out the need to go back and forth between the Mail and the Calendar app. And it's free.
The one downside is the lack of control over notifications. Every single email, no matter how unimportant, will deliver an alert. Notifications for the native iOS Mail app can be limited to people from contacts that are selected as VIP.
iOS 8 brings a number of improvements to the Mail app though, including a new VIP feature that notifies the user when they receive an important reply. The user simply taps 'Notify Me' to activate an alert for incoming messages on a particular thread.
The new Mail app also adds the ability to mark messages as read or unread or to flag them for follow-up with a swipe to the left or right. Swipe actions can also be customised.

Former Steelers LB James Farrior Makes Top 20 List Of Best Free Agent Signings In NFL History
Jim Reineking of NFL.com posted a photo essay on Wednesday of his top 20 free-agent signings in NFL history. I was a little hesitant to even flip through it for fear that he would not include Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Farrior in his list. Surprisingly, he did. Reineking ranked Farrior 14th overall, which is more than fair, in my opinion. Farrior remains the best free...

The 150-bed St. James Nursing Center in Detroit, with its history of troubles, remains one of the lowest-performing facilities in the state, according to federal ratings. / ANDRE J. JACKSON/Detroit Free Press Detroit
Owner Mohammad Qazi gives a tour of one of Ciena's other homes -- the upscale Regency at Waterford. He says Ciena is working to improve "some very troubled homes" it took over in Detroit. / WILLIAM ARCHIE/DETROIT FREE PRESS
Trust and neglect: Part 2 of 3 | Part 1 | Part 3
The stench of human waste hit her as she walked into her new job.
Denise Hubbard hadn't officially begun as nursing director at St. James Nursing Center in Detroit. But her phone rang on a Sunday, a day before her start date: Midnight shift nurses had left, and dayside was short-staffed.
Could she come in?
In a series of court documents, Hubbard described her first day -- Jan. 14, 2001 -- in graphic detail: sickly, malnourished residents; overworked staff, and equipment "completely plugged with hard, dried green mucous."
"Dried salt like tear stains" streaked the face of resident Shirley Jackson as she rocked in bed, struggling to breathe. Jackson's lips and tongue were dry and turning blue. At 68 pounds, bones protruded through her skin.
Jackson was hospitalized, Hubbard said, and died weeks later. The home paid $265,000 to settle a lawsuit filed by her sister. Earlier this month, owner Ciena Healthcare Management issued a statement saying that, despite setbacks, it is making "progress towards better and sustained compliance" with health regulations.
In 2003, Hubbard filed a whistleblower suit against Ciena, spawning a legal battle that ended with a court-ordered plan to improve care in the chain's 36 homes, mostly in Michigan. Ciena paid $1.25 million but admitted no wrongdoing.
More than 10 years after Jackson's death, the 150-bed Detroit nursing home remains one of the state's lowest performing, federal ratings show. So are two other Ciena homes, Omni Continuing Care in Detroit and Brittany Manor in Midland, even as Ciena also owns highly ranked homes.
The story of St. James, from its enduring problems to its continued operation, shows the glacial pace of nursing home reform in Michigan -- where a substandard home can linger for years, racking up violations, but staying open for business.
Rich homes, poor homes -- all with same owner
Ciena Healthcare Management, a nursing home chain with nearly three dozen Michigan facilities, is a study in extremes.
At its newest home, Regency at Waterford, the smell of fresh paint and new carpet lingers. There are private rooms and showers, wide-open meeting spaces, courtyards and an executive chef.
While the Waterford home glimmers, Ciena also owns two Detroit homes that are among the state's most poorly rated: Omni Continuing Care and St. James Nursing Center. Both have been cited again and again by state inspectors for serious lapses in patient care, as has Brittany Manor, a Ciena facility in Midland.
Although these homes are near the bottom in serious violations, they are not alone. More than three-quarters of Michigan homes received at least one serious violation in the last three years.
At Omni in 2009, a diabetic man died after he didn't eat dinner or a snack and was not given a supplement or insulin. A lab technician found his body, cold and stiff. Staff had trouble rousing a sleeping nurse as they called 911.
Inspectors also cited Omni for failing to report several incidents, including one in which a 60-year-old man died after pulling out a tube connected to his trachea.
At St. James, along seven-lane Gratiot Avenue, a resident with a history of confusion slipped outside in 48-degree weather for hours, dressed only in pajamas. Surveillance tapes showed that he passed two staff members in the parking lot -- one who said, "Good morning," she later recalled -- yet no one questioned him.
It wasn't until the man's girlfriend reported him missing two hours later that staff searched for him. He was located two blocks away, sitting on a porch.
In 2009, inspectors reviewing a death at St. James discovered that a nurse caring for a dying woman was actually an impostor. Deanna Smith-Eddington had worked there for nearly a month, dispensing medications and caring for residents.
St. James was cited for, among other things, failing to adequately screen Smith-Eddington's background.
Ciena told the Free Press that St. James reported the impostor nurse to the state. She remains in prison.
There were lower-level citations, too.
At St. James last year, an inspector watched for 20 minutes as one resident stood covered in her own waste, asking for help that never came. One staffer observed what was happening, picked up breakfast trays nearby and left.
Yet the Ciena chain of nursing homes also boasts facilities that have performed well on federal ratings, with few violations, including Christian Park Healthcare Center and Christian Park Village, both in Escanaba.
Ciena "is such a mixture of poor performing homes and lovely places which are well staffed and (have) state-of-the-art equipment," said Sarah Slocum, Michigan's Long Term Care Ombudsman, a state office.
The poorest-performing, she noted, are in some of the most troubled neighborhoods.
Slocum said her concerns are not limited to Ciena, but extend to any chain that has an extreme mix of affluent and poorly financed homes, yet is expanding. "If those resources are being spent on opening the new places, they're not being spent on the old, struggling places," she said.
Southfield-based Ciena now operates under a five-year, court-ordered federal agreement that requires tighter federal oversight. The order came after St. James nursing director Denise Hubbard quit her post in 2001 and filed a whistleblower's suit alleging residents lived in filth, missed meals and medications and, in at least two cases, were malnourished or severely dehydrated.
A work in progress
Ciena owner Mohammad Qazi gave the Free Press a tour of the sparkling Waterford home last summer with an administrator and two public relations representatives.
Sitting in the private dining room, where the executive chef served up seared chicken in cream sauce, Qazi said he is working to improve care at the Detroit homes by hiring more staff, and is renovating homes across the chain, but it's hard.
St. James was troubled long before Ciena bought it in 1998. The state already was threatening to close it for problems, including malfunctioning equipment and inadequate facilities.
All these years later, Qazi said, recruiting staff in some of Detroit's poorest neighborhoods is "an ongoing struggle." He said money is tight because residents are overwhelmingly poor and rely on Medicaid. Qazi said higher-income Medicare patients, whose short-term daily reimbursements are much higher, "keep us in business."
He also said the state scrutinizes St. James and Omni more closely because of earlier problems, a cycle that he said leads to more citations and more scrutiny.
"Here's what it really boils down to: Ciena took over some very troubled homes in Detroit. That is just a fact.
"Now, was it a mistake?" he asked. "Yes and no."
Qazi noted, though, that as a large, for-profit chain, Ciena can build new facilities that will have everything baby boomers will need in the coming years -- from greater personal space in their rooms to better socialization and advanced medical care.
David Haron, a Troy attorney who represented nurse Hubbard in the whistle-blower suit, dismisses Qazi's argument that it's hard to find good help. He noted that Detroit is a city starving for jobs.
Haron said that nursing homes can find good hires if they are willing to pay "a reasonable rate. There are a lot of good nurses out there."
Nursing home owners who believe they can't possibly improve care because of location or staffing should "shut it down," he said. When it comes to neglectful care, "the government shouldn't be enabling these people by paying for it."
Over the last three years, state inspectors cited Michigan's 427 nursing homes 2.5 times on average for serious violations, meaning residents were harmed or placed in immediate jeopardy because of something the home did wrong.
Fewer than one in four homes had no serious violations in that period.
At St. James, on Gratiot, and Omni, on Conner, state regulators found serious violations 11 and 13 times, respectively -- the highest statewide, according to an analysis by the Free Press.
Ciena said the current St. James violations are misleading and do not yet reflect recent appeals to a 2010 report.
The violations at Omni mostly stemmed from a single report -- "an anomaly" in otherwise good care, Ciena said.
Understaffing was something that respiratory therapist Elizabeth Williamson called a "chronic problem" at Omni. She was fired in 2009 after she cooperated with a state investigation of alleged patient mistreatment.
"These are patients who don't feed themselves, can't use the bathroom on their own, don't turn on their own," Williamson told the Free Press.
After a six-day trial in July -- in which Omni's attorney later called Williamson's testimony "an inflammatory emotional appeal ... that had nothing to do with her termination" -- a jury awarded Williamson $705,000. Ciena is appealing.
A history of trouble
Troubles at St. James date to the 1990s, before Ciena purchased the home in 1998. The state has since purged those reports, but, according to research by Alison Hirschel, former president of the National Consumer Voice for Quality Long Term Care, St. James was nearly closed in the 1990s.
There was a 1997 fire that prompted the evacuation of the third floor, as well as "long-standing physical plant and environmental problems, understaffing, insufficient linens, and allegations of insufficient food which may also be indications of financial difficulties," Hirschel wrote.
By 2001, when Hubbard took over as nursing director, Ciena had owned St. James for more than two years.
Finding resident Shirley Jackson, 42, dehydrated and malnourished, Hubbard ordered her hospitalized. Jackson, Hubbard later said in court papers, was one of 17 residents whose feeding tubes were partially clogged from inadequate flushing. She said she also found more than 50 medication errors, such as narcotics that didn't match records, improper drug levels and poor nurse's notes.
Jackson's older sister, Carolyn Vincent, told the Free Press she had complained several times about her sister's shrinking frame. "They said, 'We'll get to it,' " she said.
Hubbard worked at St. James for just over nine weeks.
She saw enough, in that short time, to call the feds.
More than a decade after the state first threatened to close down St. James, the home remains open, though it is on a federal watch list of troubled homes called Special Focus Facilities, one of four in Michigan on the list. Its most recent inspection noted that conditions "have not improved."
Slocum, of the ombudsman's office, said the state has been "mostly appropriate" in closing problem homes in recent years.
Still the most fined: St. James
And the state has hardly been inactive. In a 34-month period ending in August, Michigan levied $9.9 million in federal fines against nursing homes, more than any state in the nation. The most fined home, at $300,349, was St. James.
Slocum declined to discuss St. James specifically.
"A lot of work goes into enforcement, but a small percentage of chronically performing homes apparently have not been inspired by the current set of penalties," she said. "There's just not enough motivation in the carrot and stick."

- Summary: When young Bilike finds an ordinary ping pong ball, he and his friends take to flights of imaginative whimsy and embark on a journey to find the source of the mysterious unknown object. Bilike's old grandmother says the ball is a glowing pearl sent by the gods, but the boys are skeptical after it fails the test. Since none of their other family members are able to offer any more insight, the three boys trek to the faraway monastery to consult the wise lamas.

In Mongolian Ping Pong the point is to look under the majestic vistas and see value in ordinary things -- ping-pong balls included.
This is one of the most becalming films ever made. The grasslands seem oddly serene, and to watch them is to feel your pulse rate flatten out -- yet another aspect of Mongolian Ping Pong's transcendent charm.
Although its leisurely pace might be a bit tough going for restless Westerners, Mongolian Ping Pong is the kind of film that should rightly be seen by children, not just adventurous adults.
A charming but overextended yarn about some prairie tykes who mistake a table-tennis ball for a glowing pearl from the gods.
Hao doesn't seem to have a point of view. Mongolian Ping-Pong is episodic and meandering, with several tedious stretches.

ChadS.Nov 9, 2006A coke bottle falls from the sky; a ping-pong ball floats down a river; yes, "Mongolian Ping-Pong" at times recall the South African import "The Gods Must be Crazy". Both films share the concept of a foreign artifact which transforms the culture of its nomadic practitioners. In this world without Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, or any sort of formal wonderment to entertain a young child, Bilike believes that his ping-pong ball is a glowing pearl. "Mongolian Ping-Pong" is about how children from all walks of life find magic in their prosaic lives. When Bilike and his friends learn that their glowing pearl is actually a ping-pong ball, they launch a short-lived journey that recalls the South African film, and unintentionally, "The Lord of the Rings". Like those homebody hobbits, these rural boys have no idea how far a far-off place really is. "Mongolian Ping-Pong" moves at a snail's pace, but not off-puttingly so.… Expand
EdK.Feb 5, 2007The San Francisco Chronicle review has this movie pegged: episodic, meandering, and tedious. I was hoping for something clever, set out on the steppes of outer Mongolia. Well I got the Mongolia part, just nothing very clever. I understand that subtitles change things a bit, but the "dialogue" (such as it was) was terrible (did the kids write their own lines?). And the storyline doesn't ever really get off the ground. A better title for this movie would have been, "Random Goings-On in Mongolia, with a Ping Pong Ball." I give it a 4 just for the scenery and because I like independent movies; really, it's about a 2.… Collapse

NEW YORK (MainStreet)Dividends are an added bonus to any investor's portfolio, because of the high volatility they creates and the funding they provides. After a dividend is announced, the share price of the stock usually rockets up due to the potential dividend the investors could inherit. But when the ex-dividend date hits, the stock price usually declines.
Dividends, quite simply, are funds allocated to investors or shareholders by a security due to a specific profit margin reached by the company. Not all securities provide a dividend. Unlike quarterly earnings reports and other data where there is a set released date each quarter, there is no specific date that a company releases its dividends.
When investing in stocks that possess dividends, there are three objectives that you should keep in mind. The ex-dividend date (the date you must contain the stock), the pay date (the date you receive the funding), and the date of record (two days after the ex-dividend date).

Did you hear that? Oh, that was just the sound of Taylor Swift absolutely killing (in a good way) her first live performance of 'Shake It Off' at the 2014 MTV VMAs tonight.

Taylor Swift announced to fans during her worldwide live stream on Monday, Aug. 18 that her new single 'Shake It Off' and new album '1989' are unlike anything she's ever done before -- and from the few hints she's dropped about her new LP, it really sounds like it will be a whole new side of Swift!

Rated 1 out of 5Â by Nicolemeowkitty Eh I thought this piece would be really sweet, but in reality it just looked like a flower sack. The ends are unhemmed {as many of their pieces are}, and it was completely sheer. If it was made of a thicker fabric this dress would have been a sweet touch to anyone's wardrobe, but instead it was a flop. I would not recommend buying it- I was very disappointed. This will definitely not stop me from buying FP clothing though(: 8.2.2014

Pa. Treasury working to return $93,000 this Black History Month
Updated On: Feb 19 2014 10:46:31 AM CST
State officials say the Pa. Treasury is working to return thousands of dollars in unclaimed property to African American organizations and institutions.
State Treasurer Rob McCord says the department wants to return $93,000 in unclaimed funds to the rightful owners this February, which is Black History Month.
He's asked his team to identify the property that belongs to organizations like the NAACP, African Chamber of Commerce, Union of Black Episcopalians, National Society of Black Engineers and the United Negro College Fund.
The funds may also belong to historically African American institutions of higher education like Cheyney and Lincoln universities, along with fraternities and sororities.
"Our Return Team is eager to reunite these funds with the rightful owners so they can be used to continue improving the lives of and providing opportunities for African Americans across the Commonwealth," McCord said.
Groups can visit the Pa. Treasury web site to find out if any of the funds belong to them.

The Platinum classics and Pixar titles are a good beginning, but if Disney really wants to push the format, I would suggest they NOT make us wait seven more years for HD releases of movies currently available on SD, such as THE JUNGLE BOOK, LILO AND STICH and MARY POPPINS. Further, I submit that the HD release of live-action classics such as 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA and SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON be added to their release schedules. Finally, badly-managed SD releases such as pan and scan versions of the beautiful JOURNEY OF NATTY GANN and entertaining IN SEARCH OF THE CASTAWAYS and WHITE FANG be given 16x9 Blu-ray release. And don't forget my personal fave, NEVER CRY WOLF! Get these titles out there for those of us eager to plunk down our hard-earned dollars, Disney!
