OnePlus 6 is just days away from launch and the company has already revealed several features and specifications of its upcoming flagship. However, not much has been known about the OnePlus 6 camera and its features, apart from the fact that there will be a dual camera setup. The latest teaser put out by OnePlus hints at a camera that will be able to compete with the best smartphone camera offerings right now. OnePlus seems to be fairly confident about the capabilities of the OnePlus 6 camera, as it has pitted it against the likes of Apple iPhone X, Samsung Galaxy S9, and Google Pixel 2.
The company posted some images via its Twitter handle, alongside the caption "The OnePlus 6 Dual Camera takes on the iPhone X, Samsung Galaxy S9, and Google Pixel 2. Can you match the shot to the phone?" The new teaser is a part of OnePlus 6 Blind Test, which the company has put up on its site. It challenges users to match pictures captured to their respective smartphones. The options, of course, are the premium smartphones that have been mentioned. Notably, these smartphones have cameras that have been regarded by many people as some of the best in the market. With this move, OnePlus is clearly taking the competition head-on.
In the OnePlus 6 blind test, the company has posted four sets of images. There is one set that shows photos of architecture and another one is a set of low light images. The other two sets have portrait images in good light and low light. It is up to the fans to match the photos with the smartphones by replying to the tweet.
OnePlus wants users to take the blind test as well as refer friends to it. While the top three scorers on the leaderboard have been promised a free OnePlus 6, the company will also give out other gifts.
When it comes to optics, previous rumours have suggested that the OnePlus 6 will come with a vertical dual camera setup at the back and might bear a 20-megapixel primary and a 16-megapixel secondary sensor. The front camera of the OnePlus 6 is rumoured to get a 16-megapixel sensor for selfies and video calling. To recall, the OnePlus 6 launch is expected in London on May 16, followed by events in Mumbai and Beijing on May 17.
A smartphone is just as much a business communication device as it is a personal one. But using a single number for both on your phone is unprofessional and unnecessarily problematic. But smartphone technology and the many apps available in the marketplace allow you to easily get a second phone number avoiding these problems entirely.
If your phone can accept a second SIM card, you can get another number from your service provider. However, if you don't want to use this option or can't because you don't have a secondary SIM slot, you can use an app to get a second number on your phone.
Why Get a Separate Business Number?
First, it clearly separates your personal and business conversations, while at the same time protecting your personal private number. Additionally, you won't have to worry about figuring out who is calling you because the dedicated line identifies it. Last but not least, it gives you a professional appearance.
Some apps may have either a free version or trial period, so if you can, try them out before you purchase a plan. And be sure to read the fine print, because unlimited calls, SMS and text are in most cases between users of the app.
Here are 25 apps you can use to add a second number. All of the second phone number apps are available for Android and iOS, except for LineUp, Numbers Plus, Second Phone Number, and Swytch, which are only for iOS.
The GoDaddy SmartLine was just announced recently by the domain name company. You can get a local phone number with a US area code plus customizable voicemail, business hour ring option, text messages and more. You can try it free for 30 days.
Burner is one of the more popular apps for creating a secondary number. It was originally designed to create a temporary number, but permanent options are now available. The mini burner will give you 14 days with limited talk time and text messages, while the permanent version is a monthly plan for as long as you need the number. There is also a three-line plan if you happen to need more numbers.
With Google Voice, all you need is a Google account to get a new phone number. The calls can be routed to your mobile phone, computer, home, office or another location. In addition to standard calling features, the app also transcribes voicemail messages to text.
Like Burner, Hushed has temporary and permanent options for your second phone number. It starts with a free number for three days, followed by seven-day and permanent plans you have to pay for. Features include custom voicemail messages and call-forwarding.
Dingtone gives you a free US number so you can make calls or text to any landline or mobile device in over 230 countries. The company uses its dedicated VoIP network to deliver HD voice and also provides instant messaging to share photos, videos, locations and contacts. Yearly and monthly subscriptions are available in the US, UK, Canada, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
Free Tone says it gives you unlimited free calls and texts to U.S. and Canadian phone numbers when you get your own number from any area code with no trials or hidden costs. The company uses VoIP technology to deliver the service. The free calls only apply to the contiguous US and Canada, so make sure you check if you plan calling anywhere else.
CoverMe gives you end-to-end encryption to make secure private calls and send texts with your new number. The app also has a private vault to hide photos, videos, passwords and files. You can get US and Canadian numbers for many different area codes.
Cloud Phone describes itself as a business phone system for managing your business and personal calls. It includes one touch access to call recording, conference calling, eavesdrop, voicemail transcription and flip call features. The app includes a professional company greeting and an auto attendant for call routing, voicemail and call forwarding.
iPlum has domestic and international functionality with support for 22 global languages on smartphones and tablets. You pay as you go by only purchasing the credits you need for your second number. You can port your existing phone number with caller ID, dedicated voicemail, call forwarding and picture and video messaging.
Line2 offers full feature business phone systems for your second number starting with 1,500 minutes of outbound calling or forwarding. You can get a number in any city in the U.S. or Canada with visual caller ID, group calling and messaging, number blocking and more.
The second number LineUp provides offers texting, photo messaging, calling and voicemail. The subscription-free pricing lets you use the number for a single call or long-term use. The company also provides vanity numbers for your business with calling and texting features. The calling and texting minutes you pay for roll over instead of expiring, and they are good for any LineUp numbers you have.
Numbers Plus lets you create multiple numbers and keep them as long as you want. Currently it only supports US and Canadian numbers for making calls and texting. You can try it for free and use the in-app purchase feature for additional time and numbers.
The Phoner app has a random phone number generator to quickly give you a temporary or permanent number. Once you get the number, you can access reverse phone number lookup, phone call recording functions, anonymous texting and calling, along with SMS and MMS.
Ring4 gives you a local or international number in 20 countries with features such as text with emoji, call recording, do not disturb mode and more. If you make international calls, you can make or receive calls and texts overseas with a US number, with no roaming charges.
TalkU gives you a free second number to make and receive calls in the US and internationally. Call any mobile or landline phone number in more than 200 countries with unlimited free calling and texting between TalkU users. Features include Visual voicemail with instant listening, call screens, group calling with free group conference calls, and walkie-talkie.
Talkatone gives you a free US or Canadian phone number to make free calls in those countries. Inbound international calls are also free, with monthly subscription fee for making calls to select countries. The app supports ads, but you can pay for the service to have them removed.
Swytch has designed its app so businesses can give their employees work mobile numbers, instead of work mobile phones. This is a great cost effective option for many small businesses. For the employees it means not having to change personal handset, network operator or SIM card. And for business owners, it means saving on the purchase of increasingly expensive smartphones.
Sideline built its business with a free version loaded with features, but now it is only available as a paid service. Still the high-quality features such as auto-attendant, along with standard calling options seem worth the price for many businesses.
Second Phone Number gives you as many numbers as you want with monthly or yearly subscriptions. The phone numbers are available for 31 countries with features including contact management, numbers for specific business use, texting, SMS and more.
Telos gives you unlimited calling and texting with a second phone number. You can get a US phone number in any area code as well as international numbers in several countries. Calls can be forwarded to any landline or mobile number with voicemail, auto reply messages and blocking features.
Textfree starts with free text messages, inbound calls and limited outbound calls for your second number. It is important to remember you have to use your free number at least once within a 30 day period or the company will reclaim it. You can keep the paid numbers for as long as you want.
TextMe Up lets you manage as many numbers as you like and switch between multiple numbers in one screen. Features include HD voice and video calling, as well as group messages with texting, photo and video sharing. You can call numbers in the US, Canada, UK and 200 countries with monthly plans.
Textplus provides real free US phone numbers with unlimited free SMS text and MMS to any US or Canadian number. While inbound calls are free, you can only make ad-supported free calls. If you don't want the ads, you can opt for the paid service. The app uses push notifications to instantly deliver text messages. You can also send emojis, stickers, animated GIFs, and voice notes with support for group blast messaging.
You can place and receive calls and text messages to any phone number or SIP device with Virtual Phone. The app includes features to keep track of all caller information, such as geographical location, time zone, caller's name, and phone. Advanced business call management and routing rules, interactive voice menus, custom greetings, multiple voice mailboxes and more are also available.
WhatsCall lets you make calls to users even if they don't have the app or an internet connection. It includes one touch recording for incoming and outgoing calls, call block and caller ID. The company has different offers to earn credit for free calls, including watching ads, playing games, completing tasks and inviting friends.
The company said it would cut the price of an out-of-warranty battery replacement from $79 (roughly Rs. 5,000) to $29 (roughly Rs. 1,850) for an iPhone 6 or later, starting next month. In India, the cost of out-of-warranty battery replacement was approximately Rs. 6,500 inclusive of taxes, as per industry sources. Apple has confirmed that the new price starting next month will be Rs. 2,000, exclusive of taxes. The company also will update its iOS operating system to let users see whether their battery is in poor health and is affecting the phone's performance.
At least eight lawsuits have been filed in California, New York, and Illinois alleging that the company defrauded users by slowing devices down without warning them. The company also faces a legal complaint in France, where so-called "planned obsolesce" is against the law.
The Google Pixel 2 is the company's latest offering in the premium smartphone segment but the steep pricing has been putting off a lot of prospective buyers, especially in India. To woo back the pure Android lovers, Google and Flipkart are offering a major discount on the Pixel 2 during the latter's Big Shopping Days sale, which starts on Thursday, December 7 and extends to Saturday, December 9. The Flipkart Big Shopping Days sale has a Mobile segment, and offers include discounts on the Xiaomi Mi A1, Redmi Note 4, popular iPhone models, as well as a limited stock sale of the iPhone X.
The Google Pixel 2's base model will be available at Rs. 39,999 in Flipkart's Big Shopping Days sale. This offer price will include a flat discount of Rs. 11,001 as well as a Rs. 10,000 discount that will be subject to card partners during the sale. Exchange offers with up to Rs. 18,000 discount will also be made available, and a BuyBack Guarantee of Rs. 36,500 has been announced.
Launched in India earlier this month, the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL are the latest flagship smartphones by Google. The smartphones have high-end hardware that includes high-resolution 18:9 OLED display panels, Snapdragon 835 SoCs, 4GB RAM, 64GB and 128GB onboard storage.
Apart from the Pixel 2, the iPhone 7 will be available at Rs. 39,999 as well in the upcoming sale in limited stocks. The Xiaomi Mi A1 will come at a discount of Rs. 2,000 and cost Rs. 12,999 on Flipkart during the Big Shopping Days sale. As we mentioned, Flipkart's sale next week will also see the iPhone X coming back in stock, in what the e-commerce platform is promoting as the "biggest-ever" sale of the handset in the country so far.
The Flipkart sale will also see the first release of Redmi 5A (Rs. 5,999), Micromax Canvas Infinity Pro (Rs. 13,999) and Infinix Zero5 (Rs. 19,999) in the Indian market.

2014 Position Preview: Running Backs
In the final installment of our 2014 preview series, we take a look at the running backs.
By Mike.Plank Sep 5, 2014, 9:00am CDT
Share All sharing options for: 2014 Position Preview: Running Backs
Jamie Squire
A month ago, running back was considered by many to be a position of strength for Kansas. Despite losing James Sims, the group had experience, talent, and depth. In a span of 12 hours, the "experience" and "depth" portion of the RB group was gone due to season-ending injuries to Brandon Bourbon and Taylor Cox (both of whom will seek a medical redshirt).
"Well that doesn't sound too bad," you might say. "That sucks that two guys got hurt, but you still have four more backs on the roster. Right?" Wrong, because if you'll remember, just a few weeks before these injuries occurred highly-regarded recruit Traevohn Wrench enrolled at Butler County C.C. after failing to academically qualify and Darrian Miller left KU for "personal reasons." This of course left KU unexpectedly scrambling at RB this fall.
And scramble they did. It was announced shortly after the Bourbon and Cox injuries that true freshman safety recruit Joe Dineen would be moved to RB. Dineen will be backing up JUCO transfer De'Andre Mann and true freshman Corey Avery, both of whom have had "excellent" camps and were allegedly challenging the two seniors for playing time already.
In a way, having the bye week at the beginning of the season has actually been a blessing for Kansas, as it gives the coaches - and the backs - time to adjust and prepare.
Let's hit the kool-aid and take a deeper look at these guys - and then go hit the kool-aid again.
Key Returners:
(This space intentionally left blank.)
Ha. Just kidding. Kind of. As mentioned earlier, both Brandon Bourbon and Taylor Cox will seek medical redshirts and attempt to rejoin the Jayhawks in 2015.
The New Guys:
Did you drink your kool-aid? Ok, here we go.
De'Andre Mann (Jr): Currently listed as co-#1 on the depth chart with true freshman Corey Avery. Mann, listed at 5'9, 198 lbs, is a JuCo transfer from Harnell C.C. in Salinas, CA. According to JCGridiron.com, Mann was the top-ranked RB coming out of JuCo last spring and was a three-star prospect at ESPN, Rivals, and Scout. He chose Kansas over Georgia State, but also held offers from Miami (FL), Purdue, New Mexico, Hawaii, and Colorado State. He is currently the only back on the Kansas roster with significant experience after high school. In his two seasons at CC, he rushed for 1706 yards and 27 TDs in 2013 and 1098 yards and 16 TDs in 2012.
Corey Avery (Fr): Currently listed as co-#1 on the depth chart with De'Andre Mann. Avery is listed at 5'10, 195 lbs, which is excellent size for a true freshman. He comes to KU from Carter High School in Dallas, TX, a perennial power in Texas high school football. Avery was a four-star recruit by ESPN and a three-star recruit by Rivals and Scout. He chose Kansas in a televised ceremony over Nebraska, Texas, and SMU. Avery also held offers from Baylor, LSU, Ohio State, and Texas A&M. Here's hoping Avery is a quick study and a natural runner, able to hit the holes on time and pick up blocks when called upon.
Joe Dineen (Fr): Listed at 6'2, 210 lbs, Dineen was recruited to play safety at KU after concluding a high school career at local Lawrence Free State High school as a two-way starter - at QB and safety. He last played RB during his junior year at Free State. His only other official offer was from Rice, but schools such as Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Nebraska, Kansas State, Stanford, North Carolina, and Arkansas all showed interest. Dineen "willingly" moved from safety to RB, and his athleticism should help him catch up quickly.
The Rest of the Roster
Kansas does have several more players listed on the official roster as "RB." They are: Aaron Plump (Jr), Preston Randall (RS-So), and Ed Fink (RS-Sr). I'll be completely honest - I don't know anything about these guys other than what is on their official profile. Actually, that's not completely true. Ed Fink used take reps at fullback - back when we still had that position - and has been a contributor on special teams. Other than that... well... I'll just let you click on the link and read their profiles.
You might say, "Well what about Tony Pierson?" Dear reader, while I'm sure Pierson will get a handful of carries every game, I've seen no indication that the Jayhawks want him moved back to RB. No, Pierson will primarily stay as a WR.
However, and hopefully this goes without saying (but I'll say it anyway) - Kansas will still need to be able to run the ball if they want to have any success. Even in this day and age of point-a-minute spread offenses, the running game is what triggers it all. The week 1 bye should, hopefully, help Kansas out here. The opener against SEMO is the perfect opportunity to get all three backs some game action and see who responds.
Ok, time for that last drink of Kool-aid.
Look for Mann or Avery to take this opportunity by the horns and run with it... pun intended. Hopefully the remaining group of running backs can avoid the injury bug and have a productive season.

The Gear S3 also offers a dual-core Exynos 7270 processor, 768MB of RAM, and 4GB of storage. The watch also features sensors such as GPS, NFC, and even optional LTE. The standout features, though, include Samsung Pay (on any smartphone) and the rotating bezel. The Gear S3 is a pretty big watch, though, coming in at 12.9mm thick with a 46mm diameter.
I have the new version Samsung Galaxy watch 46mm. It is excellent. I do not have to use spotify premium to play music. I can simply add tracks (and images too) saved on my Note 8 phone. Bixby can open the apps without turning the bezel. The battery life is not 6 days as advertised, if used all day to make calls, text, listen to music, play games, check emails, read the news, search the internet, etc, then the battery lasts at least 3 days before recharging. There are several free watch faces available through the Galaxy app. This watch can also be used to make sos calls which can be preset for 911 or any contacts you wish to add. Then these contacts can call you back on low volume mode and listen for an hour. You can use this feature with a timer so if you accidentally activate it, you have time to turn it off before it makes the call. Adding a GPS app to this phone can allow you to take a screen shot of your location and send it if in a crisis. Of course the google app for navigation is also available for travel. You can use a wifi connection without your phone, if you turn off bluetooth and select wifi connection to your watch via phone. There is no need to buy the most expensive Samsung Galaxy with the built in sim. Also samsung pay is available on the watch. Of course it has Accelerometer, Gyro, Barometer, HRM, Circular Super AMOLED (360 x 360) Full Color Always On Display, Corning® Gorilla® Glass DX+. There is also a feature that tells you when to take deep breaths while it count the duration of inhaling and exhaling. This is great when you need to stay calm. The workout features are better than on previous Samsung watches. You can monitor calories, caffeine intake, water intake, track your sleep. You can swim with this watch. There is a water lock feature. Once you are out of the water you can expel water from the speaker by tapping a button. This watch has several other functions but It's too much to write in a quick review. Of course you can add a security pin to your watch, use locator to find your phone or vise versa. You check youtube for more of the features. Samsung doesn't have everything listed in specs. I'm still keeping my Ferragamo and Versace watches but I think I'm selling the rest of watch collection. The Samsung Galaxy watch has all of the features I need and changing watch bands is easy. I still recommend buying a screen protector and a tpu/silicone case or shell in case you drop your watch. Some sellers are offering a 2 year guarantee which includes accidents but I have the 1 year Samsung warranty. I would love this watch more if it had a nano sd slot. Specs are 768MB RAM and 4GB Internal Memory.
The TicWatch Pro shares the TicWatch E model's older processor and late arrival, and it would be just another big (45 mm case), thick (12.6 mm) Android smartwatch, if not for its trick of having an old-fashioned-looking LCD screen that the watch switches to when you're not actively looking at it or using it. This feature extends battery life significantly, especially if you go for periods in Essential Mode, where you see only the LCD screen showing the time, date, and your step count. But the transition from the LCD screen back to a "smart" OLED screen is not smooth or quick, and if you switch the watch to Essential Mode, you have to reboot it to get back to regular smartwatch functions.
Apple has continued its focus on its health focus with the Series 4. In addition to being able to detect a fall, this new Apple Watch introduces three heart-rate tracking features that will be available later this year. It lets you know if your heart rate is too low, it can detect irregular rhythms (which may indicate atrial fibrillation), and most impressively, it serves as an FDA-cleared electrocardiogram.
The Martian Passport wants to give you the best of both watch worlds, by offering a mechanical, analog watch face and a small LCD. If you prefer a traditional-looking watch and want the "smart" component to be unobtrusive, this model may work for you. It comes in three varieties, all with silver bezels: a white face with a black or white band or a black face with a black band.
The RC-1000 Wrist Terminal was the first Seiko model to interface with a computer, and was released in 1984.[10] It was developed by Seiko Epson and was powered by a computer on a chip.[12] It was compatible with most of the popular PCs of that time, including Apple II, II+ and IIe, the Commodore 64, IBM PC, NEC 8201, Tandy Color Computer, Model 1000, 1200, 2000 and TRS-80 Model I, III, 4 and 4p. The RC-20 Wrist Computer was released in 1985, under the joint brand name "Seiko Epson".[13][14] It had a SMC84C00 8-bit Z-80 microprocessor; 8 KB of ROM and 2 KB of RAM. It had applications for scheduling, memos, and world time and a four-function calculator app. The dot-matrix LCD displayed 42×32 pixels, and more importantly, was touch-sensitive. Like the RC-1000, it could be connected to a personal computer, in this case through a proprietary cable. It was also notable in that it could be programmed, although its small display and limited storage severely limited application development.[10] The RC-4000 PC Data graph also released in 1985, was dubbed the "world's smallest computer terminal".[10] It had 2 KB of storage. The RC-4500 (1985), also known as the Wrist Mac, had the same features as the RC-4000, but came in a variety of bright, flashy colors.
Fitbit OS 2.0 brings a new-look UI that offers more insights into your daily data and quick reply support for messages for Android phone users (iOS support coming at a later date). You can still download apps and a whole lot of watch faces, pay from your wrist using Fitbit Pay and tap into Fitbit Coach, while new women's health tracking has also been introduced for the first time, which is also available for the Ionic, too.
To charge the watch, you have to clip on the charger and align it with contacts that you can't see when you're clipping. Why make it so complicated? There's no NFC for easy pairing, and you have to find the smartwatch app in the app market, download it, and install it on your mobile device. The Frame's display readability in bright sunlight was judged to be only good. It's relatively heavy, at 2.7 ounces (only the Toq is heavier).
All but the Martian Notifier claim some degree of water resistance: the LG, Samsung, and Motorola models can survive underwater up to 1 meter for 30 minutes, the Cookoo2 up to 100 meters, and the MetaWatch up to 3ATM, which is equivalent to 30 meters. Only the Martian and Motorola models claim to have scratch-resistant screens (the Martian has an anti-scratch acrylic crystal and the Moto 3 uses Gorilla Glass 3).
The LG G Watch was the first one we tried that uses Google's Android Wear OS (the Moto 360 and Samsung Gear Live do as well). It includes Google Now, the company's Siri-like "intelligent personal assistant." Say "OK Google," and you can do Google searches, compose texts, and make requests of your watch ("Show me my steps" or "Set an alarm"). Google Now also offers up a stream of "cards" on the watch's face, with information it determines is relevant to you. If, for example, the card tells you how many minutes it would take you to get home from your current location, you can click on the card and get specific traffic and navigation information.
Why we like it: Garmin's Vívosport fitness band gives you more (and more-accurate) fitness tracking features than a smartwatch, though you won't be able to respond to messages and notifications or use apps on your wrist. The Vívosport lasts up to a week on a single battery charge, while an Apple Watch or Android Wear device requires overnight charging. Its screen always shows stats during a workout, while smartwatches like the Apple Watch typically turn off when you're not looking at them. And you can wear a Vívosport while you sleep to get at least a rough view of how restful your night was without having to worry about charging it every morning. All these things give you a better overall picture of how active and healthy you are, and make it more convenient to wear one smaller device all the time: You won't have to grab a phone to track a run, you won't have to wear a large, utilitarian-looking GPS watch to work, and you'll rarely have to worry about battery life during a long workout. The Vívosport also tracks heart rates and GPS location nearly as well as a GPS watch (with some exceptions), but in a smaller and less noticeable package.
Since the early days of modern smartwatches, we've sought to test as many relevant models as we can and recommend the watches that do the best job of making a smartwatch convenient and useful. We test Wear OS watches by wearing them while they're connected to Android phones. Whenever possible, we ask other people to try out our potential picks to get an idea of how others react to a watch's size, style, interface, and other features.
While you're not getting Spotify or Apple Music here, you are getting enough storage for 500 songs with a process that's fairly easy. You just boot up Garmin Express, select the Music tab and choose which of your own music you want to port over. If you do want to sync over playlists from a streaming service, your only options are iHeartRadio and Deezer.
The Q watches do not have built-in GPS or heart-rate sensors, and aside from one model (the black silicone strap Explorist), they are not made for heavy exercise tracking. The watches' IP67 rating means that they're dustproof and ready for rain, and that they can survive a short dunk in water less than 3 feet deep. For tracking your walking, movement, light bike rides or occasional runs or hikes, though, the watch does fine.
Flaws but not dealbreakers: The Apple Watch requires an iPhone—if you have another kind of phone, you're out of luck. While good Apple Watch apps are better than what you get for Android smartwatches, many are still very limited compared with their phone counterparts. And it can get annoying how aggressively the Apple Watch turns off its screen (to save energy) whenever it senses you've put your arm down.
The Asus ZenWatch 3 was a previous top pick for a Wear OS smartwatch. As of now, it has reached the end of its Wear OS updates (after a very long delay getting to Android Wear 2.0). Its rotating crown does not actually work to turn or scroll anything on the screen. Its proprietary watch band connections mean that your options are limited to what is available from third parties on Amazon. And the watch is hard to find new.
Smartwatches are still a very new thing to a lot of people, and for good reason. You don't absolutely need one to get through the day, and some of the best smartwatches are much too expensive for many folks out there. With that said, they are good for a lot of things. They can provide you with an easy way to get information, allow you to dismiss or reply to new messages without having to pull out your phone, and much more.
The Fitbit Ionic works fine as a Fitbit tracker, but despite being more expensive than our picks or the Apple Watch Series 1, it lacks many smartwatch functions you'd hope to have. It passes notifications from your phone to the watch, but you can only respond to some of them (with only five quick reply lines); and dismissing them (either one by one or as a group) involves annoyingly hard presses and long scrolls. Syncing music files and offline Pandora playlists requires you to use a desktop app, which is laborious. Two Wirecutter writers who tested the Ionic also had trouble setting it up to work with their Android phones (a 2015 Moto X Pure and a 2016 Samsung Galaxy S7) and had to perform significant troubleshooting to get their data to sync. The Ionic's battery life, even while using GPS for outdoor exercise tracking, is its most impressive feature, lasting at least five days in one test and nearly seven days in another. The Ionic is most useful to Fitbit enthusiasts who want to track outdoor exercise without bringing a phone; it's not a good option if you're looking to deal with incoming information.
For instance, I rarely use the touchscreen on my Fitbit Versa because the shortcuts to my most-used smartwatch features are available via the three physical buttons on the watch. Gesture recognition is hit and miss on smartphone screens, nowhere near as responsive and accurate as on your smartphone screen, so bear that in mind too. Force Touch is a useful feature that has come to smartwatches, notably the Apple Watch. Just press down or tap the screen to activate different features.
The Charge 3's screen has 40-percent more active space than the Charge 2 has, and it makes for a better touchscreen overall. From the watch face, swipe from top to bottom to reveal the notification drawer; from bottom to top to see the daily dashboard; and side to side to see available apps. Transitions between screen pages are smooth, and stick-figure animations in apps like the Exercise app move with ease.
Google announced in late August a substantial new version of Wear OS, which should roll out to nearly every smartwatch running Android Wear 2.0 as of September 2018. The biggest changes are to the navigation of Wear OS's homescreen, which means it could make these watches significantly easier to use. The updated UI will give you four primary places to go from your watch face: Swiping left gets you to the new Google Fit and its Heart Points and Move Minutes; swiping right brings you to a hopefully fast-loading, better-responding Google Assistant interface for asking questions or issuing commands; swipe up and you'll see a long stream of all of your notifications, which you can interact with and respond to; swipe down, as with Wear 2.0, to access quick settings. Google told Engadget that the update focuses on reducing loading times and improving Assistant responsiveness, which addresses some of our major our misgivings about Wear OS. We'll test this latest Wear OS and update this guide after we have a better sense of the changes.
As mentioned, the rotating crown on the Q watches is a bit stiffer than it should be. This makes it somewhat more difficult to spin through notifications or scroll through a longer bit of text with the tip of one finger. The fix is to push the crown forward or backward from a lower angle, or roll more of your finger over it. It's easier to turn with two fingers, but that's definitely not a convenient gesture; you'll likely just learn to get the rolling right.
None of these smart watches are necessarily waterproof but they are water-resistant. The Samsung Gear Sport is good to go so long as you don't go any deeper than 50 meters. Same for the Apple Watch. However, the Q Venture is a little more delicate and can only withstand some splashing and momentary submersion in a meter of water. In other words, the Q Venture will survive if you drop it in a sink full of water and you scoop it out almost instantly.

India catches gold fever!
November 17, 2010 at 8:34 am by HaribabuBolineni 2013-11-13T07:40:40+05:30
MUMBAI: India's gold imports, which had already exceeded 2009 levels, is likely to cross the 750-tonne mark this year due to increasing consumer demand for jewellery despite soaring prices, the World Gold Council (WGC) has said.
"Going by the trend, its good to estimate that the gold imports would cross the 750-tonne mark this year, a level earlier achieved in 2007. We have already crossed last year's total imports by almost 100 tonnes in the third quarter to reach 624 tonnes," WGC Managing Director, Middle East and India, Ajay Mitra told reporters here today.
In 2009, the total imports stood at 559 tonnes. He was talking to reporters after releasing a report on gold demand trends in Q3, 2010.
In Q3 2010, India, the world's largest consumer of the yellow metal, has bought 214 tonnes of gold compared to 176 tonnes in the same quarter in 2009.
Gold jewellery demand in India in the July-September quarter surged 36 per cent to 184.5 tonnes from 135.2 tonnes in the corresponding period last year, the report said.
The total gold demand rose 79 per cent to 650.4 tonnes in the January-September period compared to 363 tonnes in the same period in 2009, indicating a robust demand, Mitra said.
"We expect this phenomenon to continue. With the wedding season coming up and two months still remaining until the end of 2010, we anticipate that Indian gold will continue to reach greater heights," he said.(PTI)


Its one thing to own a camera, and its another to know how to use it. Please know the difference if photography is your passion. Throughout time I've come to accept what I'm good at capturing with my camera and I think once you've done that, you will be a force to be reckoned with. It is a magical moment becoming aware what you are good at and why you are good it. You can apply that theory to life, but that discussion is for another day while sipping some tea with honey.
So I will include some of my favorite photos that I felt were very emotional and well captured.
Older PostRoyal Rumble @ TeaNJ!


Clove oil works fast in my mouth. Whenever one of my teeth becomes sensitive, I suspect the enamel is wearing away. This sometimes happens when I taken lemon juice.
So I apply a drop of Clove oil to my finger and rub the finger all over the tooth area. The extra oil left on my finger never go to waste. I always use up the extra oil by rubbing it on the back of my neck or the inside of my wrists. The oils are precious, every drop!
If my lips burn after using the Clove oil, I simply wipe the outside of my lips with a cloth. All is good.
Sometimes one application of Clove oil is enough, sometimes I need to apply the oil twice a day... even continuing those applications for a few days.
Each case is different, but I'm willing to use the Clove oil as long as it takes. It's truly an amazing oil.

Our friends and colleagues plagued us with questions before we left. Won't you be cold, bored, unsafe and sea sick? I admit, I too had some concerns but none of them proved true.
I was never cold and we were exposed to the ferocious winds and weather when we climbed a volcano in the snow, rode zodiacs around icebergs and kayaked through thin ice. We also had sunny, calm days. How did we stay warm? The pre-departure packing list from Quark Expeditions was so detailed and complete; there was not room for error. We bought the recommended layers, fleece, gloves and socks. The yellow, fleece-lined, super warm, water-proof Polar coats were given to us when we boarded the ship.
There was one exception: both my husband and I voluntarily took the "Polar Plunge" and jumped into the frigid water. Adrenaline and excitement kept me warm until my entire body was submerged. Then I gasped and struggled to climb the ladder back onto the ship. The cheering of new friends kept me sane, or made me do this insane jump. It was truly a "once in a lifetime" experience. Yes, I'll never do it again, but I'm glad I did it once. It was one of those peak life moments.
We felt secure and never at risk during the entire voyage. Numerous, detailed safety briefings and procedures, as well as the competent and experienced staff and crew, put us at ease. We chose Quark Expeditions because they have 30 years of experience and excellent past passenger reviews.
Never! Although we packed several books, a deck of cards, and dominoes, we were never bored. Two excursions daily, visits to research stations, lots of educational lectures, movies, a health club and activities from yoga to Latin dancing kept us busy.
Everyone aboard had a different remedy for potential seasickness-- just in case the two-day crossing of Drakes Passage was rough. I got queasy for a few hours the very first night and took seasickness medicine which worked like a charm. Other cruisers used a "patch" or ate saltine crackers and candied ginger. My husband never got sick.
How does it stack up against other "once-in-a-lifetime destinations?
We rank our Antarctic cruise right at the top of the list, equal to our honeymoon safari in Africa.

3.22.2017 / Awards
New Songdo City Recognized as World Changing Idea in Urban Design
The KPF project in Incheon, Korea, has been named an Urban Design finalist for Fast Company's 2017 World Changing Ideas Awards.
Twenty-five judges considered more than 1,000 entries, crowning 12 winners and 192 finalists in several categories, such as food, health, energy, transportation, photography/visualization, apps, advertising, consumer products, and student work. In its inaugural year, the Awards represent the best of social entrepreneurship at the intersection of innovation and impact.
The publication acknowledged New Songdo City for its sustainability impact, specifically its ability to reduce waste and emissions. Over 50% built, it has upwards of 30,000 residents, 33,000 jobs, and 70% fewer emissions than developments of its size. The master plan includes walkable streets, 40% green space, and a vibrant urban density to promote active street life. This includes a 100 acre central park, 16 miles of bike lanes, plentiful public spaces, and wildlife zones to enhance the relationship between community and nature. The design also consists of intelligent buildings, black water reclamation, and advanced waste collection systems, with a network of sensors running through the city to monitor environmental and physical data. New Songdo City demonstrates how the collaboration of public and private interests can result in a highly sustainable and livable environment.
Fast Company has also featured Hudson Yards for its unique infrastructure solutions and its status as the first modern New York City neighborhood built entirely from scratch. KPF designed its master plan and three towers at 10, 30, and 55 Hudson Yards. Further information about New Songdo City can be found here, in addition to an archive of KPF's other master planning projects.


I've been told all my life that I'm a dreamer.
For the longest time I felt that these things were criticisms. They made me feel defeated and awful. I felt like I was doing something wrong. So I tried to hide those "escape moments". I hid who I really was and tried to become who I thought others thought I should be.
I am glad those times are over and i have learned to accept who I am! I am different…I am a little weird sometimes, and I dance to the beat of my own drum. Do you know what else I am? HAPPY! I love not caring what others will think if I like this song…that show…those books.
Too often we allow the opinions of others to dictate who we are. And we live in a world of miserable people because of this! So sad.
It is hard to be yourself because it means making yourself vulnerable. Vulnerability is nearly as hard as forgiveness. It requires setting aside that shield we often hide behind.
It is also a strength.


Party shoes needn't always mean stilettos – sculptural block heels are just as chic and comfortable. Giuseppe Zanotti's 'Roll' mules are made from silver leather and embellished with glistening crystals. Team yours with a silky dress or kick-flares.


So, I ended up having a great trip to see my family down south and surprisingly everything went smoothly…until my return trip.
Well, I take that back. I was annoyed on the flight to Tennessee because, being the cheap frugal traveller that I am, I tried to just take a carry-on and not pay $25 to check luggage. So I'm proud of myself for remembering to do this and I get up to the ticket counter and I realize – I brought a bunch of liquid stuff. Son of a... So I have to pay the $25 and check my little bag anyway lest I throw away $25+ in shampoo, body wash contact solution, etc….
But whatever, that was a tiny issue and the rest of my trip was great. Until my flight back to D.C.
I was supposed to leave at 6:40 on Sunday, stop in Detroit, then land in D.C. around 11pm. My parents and niece dropped me off and as I waved at them walking through security, I wait for my bags to come through the Xray machines. And I wait. And wait. And finally the TSA agent asks if I have candles. I do – like four of them in two different bags. They are Christmas gifts. Are we not supposed to have candles either now??
The TSA agent explains I AM allowed to carry candles, but they have to run some swab thingy over them and send them BACK through xray. And by the time they finally finish this process, I have to RUN to my gate to catch my plane.
I frantically ask the guy at the counter about getting on the flight and I'm told: it's three hours late. And that it will only get me to Detroit tonight. Forget about getting all the way to D.C.
But, they'll pay for a hotel. In Detroit. Fine. Mom, Dad, Niece? I know you want to come back in and get me and take me to have coffee for three hours somewhere!
So we do that, and I have to go BACK through security, explaining again that yes, I have scary candles in both my bags, blah blah.
After all that, I nearly break the darn things on the hotel floor!
Which reminded me of a ridiculous incident back when I was on an overseas trip during college with my friend Laura. We were souvenir hunting in Scotland and what did we decide would be a fantastic souvenir to drag home?
I'm not even kidding. We really did. She and I both had porcelin dolls given to us as we were growing up and we spotted this little boy doll in a shop called "The Piper" and he was wearing all the traditional Scotish gear and something broke in our heads and we honestly thought - we should buy that to remind us of Scotland! And drag it back to our hotel! And then pack it in a suitcase to go to a new continent!
The candles ended up being fine and I get to my room and realize - I have nothing to wear to bed and no toiletry items…since I had to check my bag with all my liquids.
Fine. Skin to the wind! I'm tired and don't care what I'm sleeping in anymore! But I do feel gross from travelling and have no face wash.
Thankfully, I have "gas permeable" (AKA basically glass contact lenses…I'm blind as a bat, don't ask) lenses that don't have to be in solution. So I grab two drinking cups from the sink – one for Left eye and one for Right, and start to take out my first lens.
And promptly drop it on the floor. On the DIRTY HOTEL FLOOR. And I have NO CONTACT CLEANER.
Grrrr! Now I may have wrinkles AND an eye infection.
I think about my NEXT problem – teeth.
I look around and see – bar soap. And one bottle of shampoo.
I begin to wonder how bad it could really be to have your mouth washed out with soap …when I call the front desk and thankfully they stock toothpaste I can get in the morning. I can just use my finger if need be. Fine. Going to bed.
And it won't turn off.
The cold side will, but the hot side just keeps on running!
Neat! I'll be sleeping with no clothes, the skin on my face drying up, my teeth rotting and water running all night! Thanks Delta airlines!
I wiggle the handle multiple times and finally FORCE it all the way to the Left and it stops.
Ok! Now we are ready to get…..3 whole hours of sleep before having to wake up for my next flight.
I get up – get the water stuck on again, throw on the same clothes as yesterday, inform the TSA agents that I am, in fact, smuggling Candles, and finally make it back to D.C. in time to work and then sit in grad school class. ...And then stay after class for a group project. Longest. Day. Ever.
And to think I actually flew to Tennessee this time as a "treat" to myself to make the trip easier. From now on, I'm just driving the dang 8 hours and holding every bottle of liquid I own on my lap, just because I can.

Sheet lamination and lament winding are two of the most popular processes used to make golf shafts. The sheet lamination process is known for its design versatility. Using this process, a golf shaft's zone prole can be tuned to the minutest details, yielding the purest golf shaft possible. While the lament winding process may be less versatile, it can easily be used to make shafts with a high degree of concentricity and consistency. ZPT is our pioneer attempt at fusing these two distinct processes.


Power is a tricky thing. Even people who want to use their powers for good can fall prey to a hero complex, the kind obvious in the worlds of sports, comics and church-planters.
I was done with infrastructures that created pseudo-popes out of spiritual leaders. My first impulse was to rail against all leadership that posed and protected, but God's Spirit confronted me to move beyond anger cloaked in a righteous agenda. God instead pinned me on my own unexamined discipleship practices. I needed reformation, but I was confused at where to begin. Romantically, I thought I could construct a new way of discipling that had no power dynamics, no acknowledged leader. I was wrong. No matter the context there will always be a bit of deference to a defacto discipler. My fresh passion needed to be harangued into something valuable on the ground.
I had studied social psychology and found some valuable insights there but it was the oddity of Jesus that confronted my leadership principles. In one of Jesus' weakest moments in the Garden of Gethsemane, a place of intense strain, he does something foolish in the school of leadership. Jesus invites Peter, James and John in close to behold his struggle. Jesus pioneers space for others to witness his knee-knocking fragility. "Dad, I'm afraid, could you please take this cup from me?" (Luke 22:42). Jesus is violently vulnerable. Don't domesticate what Jesus did. In our culture this would be called "seeing someone at their worst." The Hero Jesus was exposing disciples to the drama of his own humbling (Phil 2). The wisdom of this is hidden from leadership experts. There is an agony in Christ's vulnerability. Theologically I knew about the weakness of God on the cross, but my senses were opening to how this flowed into real-time discipleship habits. To participate in Christ is to participate in weakness with others.
Leaders are notorious for offering idealized reflections of themselves. We're all tempted to suppress anything that would threaten our guru image. We must take a sledge to that superiority soaked in sage spiritual insight. Discipleship has a power dynamic that must be sabotaged. I'm convinced the nucleus for change is the self-imposed offering of vulnerability. God was not calling me to stop discipling but was inviting me into a new tension; a tension that God in Jesus inhabited with first-century disciples. I needed to offer teeth clenching vulnerability in the very discipleship huddles I was piloting. Over the years I've learned this is easier said than done. First, I've had to learn (still learning) how to be naked in my insecurities, fears, idols and unrepentant angers. Downloading vulnerability into my own discipleship approach has risked rejection. We're all weak most of us are just too afraid to admit it. Second, I've learned that vulnerability from a discipler can be disorienting for apprentices. A discipler off their pedestal looks iconoclastic to some. Many find confidence in having access to a leader who appears quixotic in their connection to God. Even the most progressive among us lives vicariously through the strength of leaders, online celebrities and writers. Having spiritual leaders secured in their place provides us with a solid point of reference. We want our spiritual leaders to be spiritual maharishis.
There are ways pastors shortcut around this; they banish their struggles into a container. One of those tricks is vulnerability in preaching or from a media/writing platform; I call this pulpit protection. There is an unspoken detachment in a platform or a pulpit. Vulnerability from a pulpit can actually prop up our image with people. This does not mean you should not model a fitting vulnerability from public platforms, but please understand its serious relational limits. The other shortcut: Pastors are solely vulnerable with other pastors. I used to think this was the only appropriate domain for me. I thought only they could understand. This has proven to be well intentioned but misguided leadership wisdom. If you want to call others into covenant-community you cannot contract your vulnerability out to some off-ramp or pit-crew.
Discipleship has changed dramatically for me in the last 10 years. It has been awkward and discomforting at point blank range. Yet I've discovered something afresh: Mutual vulnerability opens up space for the Spirit of God. A mini-temple springs up between us; a temple the Holy Spirit enjoys hanging out in. No longer am I convinced God needs my brilliant strength more than he needs my weakness. So be on the look out for sophisticated ways we photoshop ourselves. No matter what tool you employ in discipleship, it must include a power sabotaging element. Institutional Leaders do not offer people deep meaning, incarnational ones do.

Moonlight Fire. 2007. Wikipedia. Author: kkmontandon.
Dept. of Forestry & Fire Protection v. Howell, Case Nos. C074879/C076008 (3d Dist. Dec. 8, 2017) (fully published; first posted on Dec. 6, 2017 with costs/fee discussions not published) is a case arising from the 2007 Moonlight Fires which burned 65,000 acres in Plumas County. Plaintiffs, mainly governmental agencies or affiliates, sought to recover fire suppression costs, investigation costs, and damages from defendants, mainly landowners, alleged to violate fire suppression statutes. The defense won, with the trial judge awarding multiple millions of dollars for routine costs, discovery violations, and attorney's fees to the various prevailing defendants.
Lots of things happened on appeal, but a revisit was necessary on most of these postjudgment orders. However, the multi-millions in attorney's fees award against Department of Forestry (Cal Fire) evaporated on appeal.
With respect to routine costs, the appellate court had to remand to apportion costs given that it found only the judgment against Cal Fire was justified on appeal. The costs award was not allocated, requiring a remand to determine the costs to be awarded against Cal Fire.
The discovery violations of over $20 million also had to be remanded because the trial judge's award was overbroad in nature—it awarded costs and fees for work prior to the discovery violations and failed to apportion out expenses not related to the violations. Federal court broader discovery sanctioning authorities were different, and did not require a different result given the more narrow sanctions mandate under Code of Civil Procedure section 2033.
That brought the appellate court to the attorney's fees award against Cal Fire (somewhere in the $28 million area), which fell as a matter of law. The first basis was Health and Safety Code sections 13009 and 13009.1, which provide in relevant part that the charge for fire suppression costs, rescue or emergency medical service costs constitute "a debt of that person [found liable under sections 13009 or 13009.1], and is collectible by the person, or by the federal, state, county, public, or private agency, incurring those costs in the same manner as in the case of an obligation under a contract, expressed or implied " combined with Code of Civil Procedure section 1021.8, which provides that when the Attorney General prevails in a civil action based on sections 13009 and 13009.1, the Attorney General is to be awarded his or her " costs of investigating and prosecuting the action, including expert fees, reasonable attorney  fees, and costs." From this, the trial judge concluded fees were awardable pursuant to Civil Code section 1717; however, the appellate court found that the first scheme only talked about a mechanism for collection (not a fee entitlement basis) and the second statute only related to the Attorney General (not private persons). The second basis was California's private attorney general statute, but the Third District perceived that the defense had significant financial stakes given the potential personal exposure such that the financial burden element of Code of Civil Procedure section 1021.5 could not be met under the circumstances.

Tax Benefits for Many U.K. Non-Doms to Be Reduced

Last month, the UK government announced sweeping changes to the taxation of "resident non doms," a classification of individuals who receive favorable tax treatment from the UK government.
The UK tax obligations of an individual depend in large part on the individual's "domicile" under generally applicable English common law principles. (Unlike the US tax system, the citizenship of an individual is irrelevant under the UK tax system.) The UK income tax and capital gains tax systems (which operate as two separate regimes of tax) take into account the "residence" status of an individual, as well. The residence rules were massively overhauled with effect from 6th April 2013. Note that a UK tax year runs from April 6 to April 5 of the following years.

When Can A Trust Be Reformed To Add Remainder Beneficiaries?
Authored by: Luke Lantta
We've looked at a lot of cases where courts have permitted trust reformation or modification. In many of these cases, trusts had been modified to avoid unintended or adverse tax consequences, to fix a scrivener's error, or to tweak some administrative provision. A Florida appellate court's ruling in Megiel-Rollo v. Megiel causes us to add another potential circumstance to that list: adding remainder beneficiaries. Adding beneficiaries gets to the core of a trust's dispositive provisions, so let's turn briefly to the unique circumstances underlying this decision.
The grantor created a revocable trust naming herself as trustee and beneficiary during her life. Upon her death, the grantor's assets were to be "divided between the Beneficiaries as tenants in common in proportion to their respective interests as

As part of the Surface Transportation and Veterans Health Care Choice Improvement Act of 2015, signed into law by President Obama on July 31, 2015, Sections 1014(f) and 6035 were enacted.
Section 1014(f) provides rules requiring that the basis of certain property acquired from a decedent may not exceed the basis of that property as finally determined for federal estate tax purposes, or, if not finally determined, as reported on a statement made under section 6035.
Section 6035 imposes new reporting requirements for the executor of an estate of a decedent where a federal estate tax return is required to be filed. The executor must furnish, to both the IRS and to each person who holds a legal or beneficial interest in the property listed on the estate tax return, a statement "identifying the

Estates Must Now Request Closing Letters from IRS
In the past, when an estate of a deceased taxpayer filed a Form 706, United States Estate (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return, the Internal Revenue Service would automatically issue an estate tax closing letter, signifying that the Return had been accepted by the IRS. At that time, the estate could be assured that, unless the estate took an action that re-opened the estate tax return to review, no additional estate tax would be imposed by the IRS.
Recently, a change was made on the IRS website that indicates this procedure has been changed. Per www.irs.gov:
When can I expect the Estate Tax Closing Letter?

Limits Of Exculpatory Clauses In Trusts
Many trustors want to give their trustees wide berth to administer the trust. In a lot of cases that makes sense because the trustee does not need someone second guessing every discretionary act taken during the life of a trust. One way a trustor may try to give a trustee room in administering the trust is by including an exculpatory clause in the trust that relieves the trustee from liability for actions that might otherwise be considered a breach of duty. Of course, trustees appreciate these kind of clauses. Some jurisdictions defer to these clauses; some do not. In Rafert v. Meyer, the Supreme Court of Nebraska invalidated a provision in a trust that provided that the trustee had no duty to pay the insurance premiums on 3 insurance policies that constituted the corpus of

Pay-what-you-want (PWYW) means that if you purchase this piece, you decide what you want to (or can) offer.
It may sound a little crazy at first, but there are a number of reasons why I'm doing this. Firstly, it makes my work accessible to people who otherwise wouldn't be able to afford it. Secondly, these things help to build trust. Trust is a good thing. And thirdly, it generates a type of economy which makes us think differently (also a good thing).
So, how does it work?
Well, it's easy. Enter your price in the field above the red button and click "buy now". A box will appear at the top of the page. Click on the yellow "Checkout" button, this will bring you to PayPal where you can round off your order (you don't need a PayPal account for this, you can use a credit card instead).
You can base your price on what you feel the artwork is worth, on the amount that you can offer, or on what feels right for you. Please do note that I charge a minimum of €7,50 to cover postage & packaging.
If you're new to this, fear not! I welcome every offer that comes my way. If in doubt, shoot me an email.

The girl in this illustration has lost her way in a dense forest. It's winter and she's trapped in a white world of snow and tall, identical trees. She feels scared and wanders around in circles until suddenly, the trees seem to come alive and show her where to go.

Q: Why am I getting a Seg Fault on this line of code in Qt creator/designer? I am using Qt4.8 RHEL6.5.
ui->le_config_0->setText("Today is Monday");
le_config_0 is a QLineEdit widget.
In the debugger this is the line it seg faults on.
I built the line typing ui-> and it gives a list and I chose the le_config_0 then -> and chose setText().
This doesn't make sense at all to me.
I tried changing the widget to a QTextEdit with the same results.  I'm wondering if my install of Qt has gotten corrupted or my QtCreator/Designer has gotten corrupted.
Thanks for any help
emp1953

A: I created another simple GUI project with one QLineEdit widget and performed the same operation on it.
It worked perfectly.
Something in this project is corrupted.
I will start over with a new project.

First of all, I am new to both this list and rockbox, although I have grasped the concepts and functionality of rockbox quite well.
1. When stopped, I can't activate a context menu on another file giving me any playlist options other than "insert," which creates another list with just that particular file as the only item. If the iriver is playing I have the full list of options.
2. When recording from the radio, the level of both playback and the recordings are very low. Turning up the volume to compensate results in a painfully loud volume when the radio is turned off and a file resumes, or rockbox speaks.
I'm using the latest official release.

Jewish World Review Jan. 18, 2005 / 8 Shevat 5765
Goin' nuclear — literally
http://www.NewsAndOpinion.com | Last week, the leadership of the House of Representatives employed the political equivalent of the "nuclear option." It removed a popular legislator, Rep. Chris Smith of New Jersey, from his position as chairman of the Veterans Affairs Committee over his failure during the last Congress to adhere to the budget and agenda laid out by the President and his allies on Capitol Hill.
The extent and implications of Rep. Smith's apostasy pale, however, by comparison with those of another Republican chairman, Rep. David Hobson of Ohio, who led the Energy and Water Resources appropriations subcommittee in the 108th Congress. Although Rep. Hobson says he believes that "Our nuclear arsenal remains an important component of our overall national security program" and that he supports "maintaining our current stockpile," his actions last year fail to bear out that commitment.
At the very least, Mr. Hobson has made choices that render the maintenance of our current stockpile problematic. They also raise real questions as to whether our nuclear arsenal can remain "an important component of our overall national security program."
This was accomplished when Rep. Hobson was able last Fall to exploit the classic "smoke-filled room" process that shaped the 2004 omnibus appropriations act to decimate President Bush's plans for assuring the continuing effectiveness of our nuclear deterrent, as called for by the 2002 Nuclear Program Review.
For example, if "maintaining our current stockpile" means anything, it requires that our existing nuclear weapons remain safe and reliable. Given the fact that they are obsolescing, the only way to be absolutely certain is to conduct underground tests. Today, it would take some three years to do so. Mr. Hobson says it is an "unwise and unnecessary use of limited resources" to try, as Mr. Bush has recommended, to shorten significantly that lead-time.
The President also believes we can no longer safely afford to be the only nuclear weapons state incapable of manufacturing "pits" — the plutonium cores that are at the heart of our current arsenal. Mr. Hobson says he does, too. But he thinks, since it will take years to design and construct such a facility, it won't matter if all but the most preliminary of work is delayed still further. He says he wants certain questions answered first, but they amount to a technical smokescreen for policy-driven inaction.
The Congressman has departed even farther from the Bush strategy with respect to what it will take to provide for America's future deterrent. The President thinks we need to design a Robust Nuclear Earth Penetrator capable of holding at risk the growing number of deeply buried sites used by North Korea, Iran and the like to conceal weapons of mass destruction and command-and-control facilities. Mr. Hobson disagrees, claiming that, like enhanced testing readiness, this and other advanced weapons development efforts would be not only wasteful but would "send the wrong signal to the rest of the world."
Congressman Hobson has contemptuously dismissed contrary judgments like those President Bush has made as "the desires of Cold War fighters for new weapons and facilities." As Keith Payne observed in Sunday's Times in an essay entitled "Cold War Thinking on Nuclear Policy," such a criticism is all the more ironic for it coming from a man who would condemn America to retaining, at best, an arsenal designed to deter our Cold War foe — not those we confront today and tomorrow.
The folly of this approach was dissected in another excellent November 16, 2004 op.ed. in the Washington Post published by one of the Nation's most respected experts on nuclear weapons, former Defense Nuclear Agency chief Vice Admiral Robert Monroe (U.S. Navy, retired). He noted:
"No other nation has the global responsibilities the United States bears, and we must take the actions needed to meet them — particularly those involving deterrence. To be effective deterrents in the future, our nuclear weapons must have greatly increased accuracy, reduced yields, specialized capabilities (such as deep earth penetration) and tailored effects (such as ability to neutralize chemical-biological agents)�.In a dangerous world, with many states and organizations committed to acquiring and using nuclear weapons, it would be unwise for the United States not to make our nuclear deterrent force more effective."
Finally, Mr. Hobson claims that his positions enjoy majority support in the Congress and that representations to the contrary are "simply inaccurate." In fact, the full House and Senate were given successive opportunities to vote last year on who was right — President Bush and experts like Admiral Monroe, or Mr. Hobson and anti-nuclear activists opposed to the Bush defense program. Each time, the Bush position prevailed. The Hobson choices were enacted only when, in the Omnibus bill, neither the 108th Congress nor the President had the opportunity to address them individually.
Now, it falls to the 109th Congress to correct the damage Rep. David Hobson's choices threaten to do to our nuclear deterrent. In that debate, Mr. Hobson should, of course, have his say. But it should not be from the vantage point of chairman of the relevant appropriations subcommittee, the sort of position of responsibility that — as Chris Smith recently learned the hard way — is not entrusted by the leadership to those with their own agenda. That sensible approach to party discipline should most especially be applied when the individual in question's agenda is utterly inimical to the Nation's security.
