Bluetooth support is a missing feature on most Arnova G2 tablets, apart from the Arnova 7c G2 which has a different hardware.
Missing support in the device kernel and system can be added thru kernel modules, to make some external USB Bluetooth dongles work. Fenice57 already did that a while ago on his custom firmware for the Arnova 7 G2.
What do you mainly use Bluetooth for ?
We have started to adapt our custom firmwares for the Arnova G2 tablets to include Bluetooth support on the devices that offer an USB Host feature. These firmwares should be published shortly, starting with the Arnova 10 G2.
The setup to support Bluetooth on the Arnova tablets requires an USB Bluetooth dongle to be connected to the USB plug on the tablet, directly if the device has full size USB connector or using an USB Host cable.
The USB dongle must be based on a chipset made by CSR (Cambridge Silicon Radio, the company has actually been bought by Samsung two days ago), other chipsets are not supported at the moment.
We successfully tested the Daffodil 06M dongle below to be compatible.
USB Host cable, sometimes named USB OTG cable is used to connect the Bluetooth USB dongle (full size USB) to the tablet micro USB port. The Arnova 9 G2 and Arnova 10 G2 already have a full size USB Host connector and do not require the USB OTG cable.
As you can see on our video, once you have loaded our custom firmware (to be published soon) you will need these two applications to use a Bluetooth GPS on your tablet. Both applications are available for free on Google Play.
You can then use any application that supports a GPS, including Google Maps.
So far we have only tested GPS support with this Bluetooth setup, we will update this article when we discover more possibilities.
The tablet does lock up when going into sleep mode when the Bluetooth / GPS module is being accessed.
Thanks to Fenice57 for the Bluetooth kernel modules.
We've tried, without success so far, as we had some troubles with Android Bluetooth support and Android 4.0 ICS / 4.1 JellyBean.

Tim Guilford, MD
Session Title: The role of Glutathione in Chronic Health Issues
Dr. Guilford graduated from Johns Hopkins University and the University of Texas Medical Branch for Medical School. After two years of studying general surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital he completed his ENT surgery residency at the University of Michigan in 1978 and published a paper on the surgical anatomy of the orbit.
Dr. Guilford began clinical practice in 1979. In 1985 he introduced complementary medical approaches into his practice. The concept that chronic inflammation functions as a causative factor in illness became apparent while he was the director of a laboratory specializing in in-vitro allergy and viral immunology testing (1982 -1992). Interest in the immunology of yeast and mold led to testing for Candida albicans and other fungal organisms. Exploration and research into the detoxification of mercury led to insight into the need for glutathione in the defense against heavy metals and led to further insight regarding mycotoxins, which deplete glutathione. Dr. Guilford's study of the role that glutathione plays in the basic mechanism of many diseases led to his formulation of ReadiSorb Glutathione, a liposome encapsulation of reduced glutathione, over 15 years ago, The path to our current understanding of inflammation is chronicled in over 20 peer reviewed articles found at ReadiSorb.com-click on references and drguilford.com/publications/
Interest in inflammation has led to publications including Oxidative Stress and Low Glutathione in Common Ear, Nose, and Throat Conditions: and Antiparasitic and Antifungal Medications for Targeting Cancer Cells.

Manhattanite Cecily Sinclair is the host of cooking show Serving Romance where she creates gourmet French cuisine. When new CEO Devlin Hayes takes over CuisineTV with plans to rebrand the network, Cecily finds out that her show is going to change drastically, including the addition of Cecily's former nightmare of a boss, Italian chef Dante Marchetti. Despite constantly being at odds, viewers love their chemistry together, much to Cecily's dismay. But Cecily is determined to maintain her reputation and the integrity of her show, which means getting a step ahead of Dante and Devlin with her own schemes. As she tries to figure out if she's really meant for TV or if she should take a new path, she finds herself embroiled in romantic drama with both men who drive her crazy.
Mixing It Up is a fast-paced, well-written novel that will have readers guessing until the very end. Cecily is determined to control all aspects of her life. The more curveballs that are thrown her way, the more headstrong she becomes. She is definitely one of the strongest Chick Lit heroines, but her stubbornness gets her into some trouble. So, it's a good thing Cecily has caring friends to help her relax a bit. The dynamic between Cecily and her best friend/cousin, Dina, is fun to read because they are so different, but they balance each other out so well at all the right times. For most of the book, it's unclear who Cecily will end up with romantically. She has chemistry with Dante and Devlin, which makes things interesting. Readers will likely root for both men at different times during the book, as well as be frustrated by both. With Cecily's love life unclear, there's enough work drama and family drama to keep the story moving along.
The best aspect of Mixing It Up is the author's writing style, which is so natural and effortless, making it an easy yet compelling read. Cecily's passion for food jumps off the pages thanks to the author's exquisitely detailed culinary descriptions. Foodies and Chick Lit fans are sure to enjoy this entertaining read that excels in gastronomy, humor, and romance. Highly recommended!

Wow, quite a trip to Iraq. There were several ISIS-inspired bombings in Baghdad just before my arrival, which made me second guess my decision to go there. However, after speaking with Douglas Layton, the President of the Kurdistan Iraq Tours, I was reassured of my safety.
I arrived in Erbil (2016), one of the oldest living cities in the world, and an important crossroads between eastern and western civilizations. This is Iraq's fastest growing city, and is home to over 2 million people displaced by the region's many conflicts.
The citadel, which sits in the center of the downtown district, has been occupied for 5,000 years as a fortress and trading center. The government and UNESCO have been restoring the citadel for the past 10 years but little progress has been made in making it an open-air museum and bazaar.
Downtown Erbil is a vibrant and robust cultural center with a bazaar selling everything imaginable. Most of the handy goods are imported from China or India, but there are some wonderful baked delicacies there. There are 1000 of white and beige taxi cars on the city's streets, the ideal exterior colors to combat temperatures that at times reached 46-49 degrees celsius(120 degrees F).
The city and its residents struggle to keep the power on and air conditioners running. The government provides electricity for only 8-12 hours per day, and neighborhoods have large generators which also intermittently provide 4-6 amps of services. Most buildings are made out of cement block and many are only partially finished. The collapse of the world's economy in 2009 had a devastating impact here and there are numerous high rises throughout Erbil which are ½-¾ complete, and even some that appear fully done but that are completely empty. Villas which once sold for 500k are now lucky to fetch 150k. Making matters worse, there is no access to capital, making this a cash economy, and people are too scared of ISIS and the future to invest in real estate.
The powerful Barzani family controls all of Kurdistan. And I don't just mean politically, I mean everything. Barzani, his sons and family members control all key industries and government branches from telecoms to travel, advertising to oil. When a road is to be built, a Barzani company gets the contract. Erbil's sparkling new international airport, yep you guessed it, built by the Barzanis. The advertisements on the road, the finest hotels, restaurants, shopping malls – everything you can think of – are controlled by this powerful family.
Lest one believe the Barzanis to be abusing their power, keep in mind that the Kurdistan region is the only safe zone in the region, and hasn't had a terrorist incident in years, whereas Baghdad, only 60 miles away, reports them daily. Whether the Barzanis are paying ISIS to stay away or the Peshmerga are doing a stellar job to maintain security around Erbil whatever they're doing is working. I felt completely safe wandering around Kurdistan with my guide and the Kurds couldn't have been more hospitable. An American in Kurdistan is treated like royalty here. Need something at your hotel? No problem, you're an American and they'll go get it for you. Need wifi at the airport? Are you American? Let us give that to you.
Unfortunately I travelled to Kurdistan during the end of Ramadan, which meant that during the day many shops were closed. During Ramadan, many Muslims eat during the late late night because they can neither eat nor drink from sun up until sundown. Because they've been eating and drinking all night, they sleep until late in the morning and are lethargic during the day. Many shop owners don't bother to open and those that do, can't sell food or drinks for immediate consumption. Ice cream stores were open but couldn't sell it.
There were 2 highlights during my time in Iraq:
Meeting with Faryad (Fred) Barzani (yes that Barzani), a Peshmerga war general. We discussed his time in the U.S., his asylum in Iran and Saddam's brutal oppression of the Kurds. Saddam did not like the Kurdish preferences toward independence, and as a result he did everything to make sure they remained under his thumb. Saddam not only gassed the Kurdish people, but he gassed the mountain regions to kill their livestock and contaminate their water supplies. Between 1983-88, 200,000 Kurds were rounded up, put in trucks and dumped into mass graves. Fred lost 36 family members during this time and survived only because he was able to hide in a remote mountain area.
Fred started with the Peshmerga at 18 years old, and after working several jobs, has risen to one of the Peshmerga generals. 200,000 + 20k volunteers.
Our conversation led to this scathing conclusion: US policy to withdraw from Iraq prematurely, without leaving forces to train Peshmerga and Iraqi forces led to the rise of ISIS in Iraq and Syria. The millions of refugees in the refugee camps (including the 100,000 Yazidis) have us to blame for their plight, as do many of the other 2 million refugees in the other camps. Before going to war we must know the human costs involved, not just our troops … but the region's citizens. Our premature withdrawal has forever impacted generations of people in this region and their stories are absolutely heartbreaking.
Other highlight was going into a Yazidi IDP camp to speak with some of its residents. Many of the 100k were refugees from the northwest area of Iraq and were forced from their villages by ruthless ISIL fighters. I met several families whose mothers and fathers were both killed by ISIS and were now living at this camp. Each tent sleeps 5 people, they sleep on concrete floors and have little food provided. The tent camps are in the middle of the desert with few opportunities to find work. The schools are poor, the heat is oppressive, the winters are brutal and their prospects are bleak. I was tempted to give those I met $100 to share but that would have accomplished little. Even buying each family a chicken (for $2500) would have had little impact.

Kaizer Chiefs football manager Bobby Motaung believes former coaches Giovanni Solinas and Steve Komphela were quality, and the club believe in current incumbent Ernst Middendorp.
Komphela spent three seasons with Chiefs from 2015 until 2018 but failed to win any trophies during that period of time.
Meanwhile, Solinas was appointed ahead of the 2018/19 campaign but failed to deliver good results and football.
In December they parted ways with the Italian and hired Middendorp instead.
Nonetheless, Motaung, affectionately known as 'Bobsteak' by supporters due to his healthy appetite and the fact he is a major figure behind pulling the purse strings at Naturena, says all three have top qualities.
He told Sowetan: "He (Solinas) wasn't a disappointment. Things just did not work out for him.
"I don't like talking behind coaches' backs but we talked (with Solinas), settled and agreed that players were not responding to him.
"He was a professional coach. He is not bad quality in terms of work ethic and it happens.
"Players must respond to the stature, character and philosophy and to the way you work and in his case they did not respond.
"We had coach Steve Komphela who did well for us but trophies were not coming.
"Every coach has his own challenges and things didn't work out with both Solinas and Steve. We have not achieved what we want to achieve yet and it is too early to comment on those things.
"But the most important thing is that players are responding to Ernst. It is not to compare and regret what happened.
"We have had coaches in the past who were like Solinas and things didn't work out and they left. We have had coaches who were not as high-profile as him but they achieved.
"I can't criticize and mention names of the other coaches but they have won trophies and they never had the same work ethic as Solinas."


The foreign exchange market is one sector of the Iranian economy almost always affected by economic and political upheavals. Similarly, it exercises a major influence over key economic indicators such as the inflation rate, production and exports. It has been three years since the market experienced wild gyrations before settling in relative stability, thanks in large part to the economic policies of President Hassan Rouhani who took office in the summer of 2013.
In a talk with Tehran's Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture's monthly magazine, the CEO of Export Guarantee Fund of Iran, Kamal Seyyed Ali shared his views on the key issues related to the currency market.
"A key issue is the unification of forex rates. The government and the Central Bank of Iran should not hesitate in unifying the rates," he said. He elaborated by saying that the single rate plan is necessary as it helps put an end to rent-seeking, augurs well for transparency and facilitates foreign investment into the country.
Asked about the current situation of the currency market, the senior official said the market is stable for the time being and added that the CBI should take effective measures in dealing with the forex market.
He recommended the government to opt for "floating but managed" exchange rates.
The former deputy of the CBI's forex department noted that the lifting of sanctions and normalizing relations with the outside world can and should help maintain the present stability in the forex market.
Pointing to the recent decline in the USD exchange rate, Seyyed Ali said it could ultimately harm Iranian export, and opined that further decline in the foreign exchange rate would in effect undermine exports in 2017.
Iran was forced to revert to the controversial double exchange rate regime after nuclear-related sanctions caused unprecedented turmoil in the forex market in 2011-12 in which the national currency lost almost 70% of its value within days. The government and CBI officials have said they intend to introduce a "floating," yet "managed" exchange rate regime by October.

7 things paramedics wish you knew about their job | CBC News Loaded
7 things paramedics wish you knew about their job
About 150 paramedics work on P.E.I. — responding to Islanders' health needs and providing support during some of their most difficult times.
Just don't call them ambulance drivers
Jesara Sinclair · CBC News · Posted: Jun 01, 2018 11:00 AM EDT | Last Updated: June 1, 2018
Holly Noel holds her nephew Tucker MacPherson in front of an ambulance. Noel says a lot of the work she does is community-based. (Submitted by Holly Noel)
This week is Paramedic Services Week, and we asked some of P.E.I.'s paramedics what they wished the public understood about the work they do.
"There are a lot of misconceptions about paramedicine," said Holly Noel, an advanced care paramedic with Island EMS and the education director for the Paramedic Association of Prince Edward Island.
Health PEI adding additional Island EMS coverage
P.E.I.'s first responders look to bridge language gap with newcomers
1. They're highly educated
Noel, a paramedic for seven years who primarily works out of Belfast, P.E.I., said the public often doesn't understand how much education it takes to become a paramedic.
"I think a lot of people still think it's like you just have to have a first aid certificate and a driver's licence. No, it is not that at all," she said.
It currently takes two years to get a primary care licence for paramedicine through Holland College, and another year to become an advanced care paramedic.

Just a few weeks ago Michael Hannah, also an advanced care paramedic with Island EMS, became the first person to graduate from UPEI's new B.Sc. program in paramedicine, something he said has really helped him understand the foundation of what he does on the job.
"Science and medicine changes every day, it's really challenging to keep up — so really understanding how our practice is going to change over the next five years, how we're going to use new research and evidence to affect the kind of care that we're providing," he said of what he learned from the program.
Islanders win 2 of 4 Paramedic Association of Canada awards
2. The standards are 'incredibly high'
The education continues with on the job training, as well as what Noel calls "incredibly high" standards.
"For your whole first year, they audit every single patient care report you do. They ask you questions about absolutely everything you did, so it makes you very conscious of every single clinical decision that you're making," she said.
Holly Noel says paramedics are held to an 'incredibly high' standard on the job, which she says is as it should be. (Submitted by Holly Noel)
"And the standards should be high."
3. They care
Hannah has been a paramedic for about a decade. He said he's bothered when he hears someone say they don't think paramedics care — and are only there because it's their job.
Hannah says the paramedics he works with are passionate about what they do. (Pat Martel/CBC)
"We generally do care. We're not doing this for the money or for the fame," he said. "Genuinely people doing this line of work are in this because they genuinely love helping people."
4. It's not all accidents and trauma
Noel said when people think of paramedics, they often think of crashes and other traumatic incidents.
"When people think of paramedics they think you're getting in a truck and you're driving a million miles an hour to a car accident and then you're driving to the hospital as fast as you can," she said, adding that while she does attend motor vehicle accidents and other traumas, she said a lot of her time is spent in the community.
In addition to emergency calls, paramedics also do a lot of work in the community, says Noel. (Pat Martel/CBC)
"We do a lot of chronic health conditions, we do a lot of work with seniors … we go to a lot of palliative patients — all incredibly rewarding calls where you feel like you're really making a difference in these people's lives."
5. It's a changing profession
"It wasn't very long ago that … it was a ride in an ambulance — a very fast and unsafe drive to the hospital," said Hannah. "Now we're really focusing on bringing the emergency department to our patients."
Hannah cited the level of care paramedics are able to provide — including starting IVs, giving medications and fluid, and treating a variety of emergency conditions.
Noel was recently in Ottawa to lobby on behalf of paramedics. (Submitted by Holly Noel)
"It's a profession that's evolving and it's evolved so much and it's evolved so fast," said Noel.
She cited other provinces where paramedics do wellness checks, mental health visits and support to known high-risk drug users — all things she would like to see in P.E.I.
P.E.I. paramedics will do more home care under new programs
"It changes and it's just increasing in leaps and bounds, so I'm very excited to be a part of it," she said.
6. Don't hesitate to call
Both Hannah and Noel said they wished people knew more about the scope of what they do, in hopes that would lead them to call for help sooner or at all.
"They're like, 'No, I'll just drive my car when I'm having chest pains, to the hospital'. No, please don't do that. Please just call us. We'll start the wheels of emergency medicine the second that we hit your door," said Noel.
"If we don't think you need to go to the hospital that day or this is an issue that can be handled by your family doctor, we'll tell you that," she said.
The profession is changing quickly, said Hannah and Noel, and paramedics are able to provide a high level of emergency care before a patient reaches the hospital. (Pat Martel/CBC)
Hannah said that he hears a lot of situations where people have a family member drive them instead.
"I think that if people really understood that getting an ambulance in five minutes may give you a lot of access to a lot of that care that a person needs, I think it would really help the people that we provide for," he said.
Noel added that if a patient decides they don't want to go to hospital, they don't have to.
7. Don't call them ambulance drivers
"There's two words that make every paramedic cringe and it's 'ambulance driver,'" said Hannah. "Driving the ambulance is only the tip of the iceberg."
He said he cringes because the term doesn't acknowledge how "highly skilled and dedicated our paramedics are on P.E.I."
Yes, paramedics sometimes drive the ambulance, but don't call them 'ambulance drivers.' (Pat Martel/CBC)
Noel said she usually sees it as an opportunity to educate others.
"I'm pretty easygoing … I'm not going to get offended if someone calls me an ambulance driver, unless they're doing it to be insulting," she said. "The more that we can let people know that, 'I'm a paramedic, this is a profession' … I'll let people know."

PhD Cardiovascular Physiology, 2004
BMedSc (Hons) in Medical Sciences, 2000
Clare Ray gained a BMedSc (1st Class Hons) in Medical Science, specializing in Cardiovascular Physiology, from the University of Birmingham in 2000. She went on to study for a PhD in the Department of Physiology, developing a novel technique for directly measuring the in vitro release of nitric oxide from blood vessels and elucidating the pathway by which adenosine evokes nitric oxide release during systemic hypoxia.
Her two post-doctoral research projects, both funded by the British Heart Foundation, allowed Clare to continue her research into the control of oxygen delivery in skeletal muscle at the University of Birmingham and it was during this time that she developed her interest in learning and teaching.
Whilst continuing with her research, Clare completed the Associate Module in Learning and Teaching in HE in 2009 and was appointed as a lecturer in Cardiovascular and Respiratory Sciences in January 2010. In 2011, she completed the PGCertLTHE and became a Fellow of the HEA. In 2016, Clare was promoted to Senior Lecturer and became a Senior Fellow of the HEA.
As a post-doctoral researcher Clare developed an interest in outreach and widening participation and in 2003 became a subject tutor on the University of Birmingham's flagship widening participation scheme Access to Birmingham (A2B). Since then Clare has become increasingly involved in a variety of schemes and activities aimed at supporting the participation of underrepresented groups in Higher Education, resulting in her being appointed the College lead for Outreach and Widening Participation in 2013. Since then the College has made large strides in its widening participation activities particularly around widening access to medicine, via our Routes to the Professions: Medicine scheme. She has an increasing focus on the success and progression of students from underrepresented groups at all stages of the student life cycle and launched MDS Pathways in September 2019, which has received support from the Alumni Impact Fund, and will provide a mentor and professional development and networking opportunities for all MDS students who engaged with our widening participation programmes. As part of these activities Clare sits on the University Student Access and Progress Committee, the Physiological Society's Education and Outreach Committee, the National Medical Schools Widening Participation Forum, and the Realising Opportunities Academic Board. In recognition of this work, Clare was the first recipient of the Dean's Leadership Award in 2016 and was promoted to Reader in Widening Participation in Biomedical Education in 2019.
Clare is a member of the Birmingham Arterial Chemoreceptor and Hypoxia Group and her current research is centred around the control of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems in chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and diabetes.
Clare is interested in the scholarship of learning and teaching and evidence-based approaches to education. She currently contributes to cardiovascular, respiratory and other teaching on the following programmes:
Biomedical Science BSc
Biomedical Materials Science BMedSc
Dental Surgery BDS
Medicine and Surgery MBChB
Pharmacy MPharm
Clare is a personal tutor on the Biomedical Sciences programme and regularly supervises final year research projects.
See Clare talk about a great way to drive student involvement and therefore engagement during lectures: Polling Technology.
Postgraduate supervision
Clare currently co-supervises PhD students on the following projects:
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM)
Does exposure to chronic intermittent hypoxia in early life induce developmental programming of carotid body function in adulthood?
Clare's current scientific research is centred around the control of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems in chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Clare is a group leader of the Birmingham Arterial Chemoreceptor and Hypoxia Group. The research group focuses on defining the role of the carotid body chemoreceptors, in cardiovascular, respiratory and neuroendocrine physiology and pathology. With colleagues she has developed both an acute model of airway obstruction and a chronic model of intermittent hypoxia in order to investigate the mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular and respiratory complications of OSA. She also has an interest in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes as a co-morbidity of OSA and the interaction between blood glucose level and chronic intermittent hypoxia in the development of microvascular complications and the function of the autonomic nervous system.
Clare's educational research is in the area of Widening Participation and Inclusivity in Biomedical and Healthcare Education. Her current projects include: a collaboration with the University of Glasgow Medical School and Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry, looking at the experience of students from underrepresented groups before, during the transition to, and while at University; an evaluation of the effectiveness of mentoring and bespoke professional development training and networking opportunities on the transition to University and sense of belonging of students from underrepresented groups; and investigating the factors that contribute to differential attainment of underrepresented groups at all stages of the student lifecycle.
Clare is also interested in the scholarship of learning and teaching and widely uses and evaluates the effectiveness of the flipped classroom in undergraduate biomedical education.

That, his players say, is what helped them get on track and win their last two games, capped by Tuesday night's 73-56 victory over Georgia.
Georgia shot just 35.3 per cent overall, but really struggled from long range, making 3 of 23 shots.
The Aggies got a big boost from their bench, which outscored Georgia's reserves 39-10, led by Starks and Chandler. The solid play of the bench came on a night when leading scorer Mitchell finished with just nine points and third-leading scorer Savion Flagg had only seven.


While the Loop app is counting down for the special launch to unveil OnePlus 3, Amazon and Hindustan times earlier today jumped the gun and broke all the efforts of OnePlus to build the suspense. We have already covered what Hindustan Times advertisement showcased on OnePlus 3 and now it's time to see what Amazon India leaked.
Recommended: OnePlus 3 Vs OnePlus 2 Vs OnePlus One – Which is the best?
Here's all you need to know to stop biting your nails ahead of OnePlus 3 launch.
The OnePlus 3 is going to run a top-class Snapdragon 820 processor with a 6GB RAM. The processor should make it 35% faster that OnePlus 2 consuming much lesser power. As guessed, it does come with an internal 64 GB non-extendable storage and is installed with Oxygen OS running on Android Marshmallow 6.0.1.
It would be armed with Gorilla Glass 4 and comes with a 5.5 inch Full HD 1920 X 1080p Optic AMOLED display with 401 ppi.
It also looks sleek with an anodized aluminum body, yes you read that right and it is confirmed. So it is "Goodbye, Sandstone". The phone weighs 158gm and measures 152.7 x 74.7 x 7.35mm and is going to come in two color options: Graphite and Soft gold.
The rear camera is going to be a 16MP with Sony IMX298, f2.0 aperture, and an 8MP Sony IMX179 front camera. The rear snapper also comes with PDAF, LED flash, and 4K recording. The selfies must be improved with noise reduction and electronic image stabilization.
Thankfully, it comes with NFC and Fast charging technology – places where OnePlus 2 miserably failed. The charging port is a USB 2.0 Type-C with 'Dash Charge', a fast –charging technology(5V at 4A or 20W) which should charge the 3000 mAh battery to 60% in roughly about half an hour.
The phone also comes with a fingerprint sensor, dual nano SIM and a better and improved bloat-free version of Oxygen OS. It also would come with an alert slider, which would let you toggle between normal, priority and no alert options.
The phone is going to be invite-free and sold exclusively on Amazon and would be priced at Rs 27999.
Although there isn't much that you should be waiting, for now, do tune into the Loop for the glamor of the official launch.

Sports / Cristiano Ronaldo / David De Dea / Man U News
Man Utd stars snub Ronaldo ss they nominate De Gea for Player Of The Year
by Prince Admin · Published June 3, 2022 · Updated November 3, 2022
David De Dea, the goalkeeper for Manchester United, has been awarded Players' Player of the Year, ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo was snubbed by his teammates, who opted for De Gea to get the honor instead.
Last season, De Gea was selected Man of the Match seven times for United, the same number as Ronaldo.
Nonetheless, given De Gea's 57 goals conceded in 38 outings, Portugal's captain may have reason to be upset.
But the shot-stopper made some crucial saves that arguably prevented that tally from being much higher, like his last-gasp penalty stop against West Ham to secure a 2-1 win at Old Trafford.
Ronaldo enjoyed a fruitful return to Old Trafford, scoring 24 goals in all competitions, 18 of which came in the Premier League.

The Museum of American Armor at Old Bethpage Village Restoration will be observing "Veterans Day Weekend" on November 8th and 9th between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. by rolling out its heavy artillery, the only 155 mm Long Tom cannon on public display in the northeast where it will be pulled by an equally rare artillery tractor that moved the guns to the front lines during World War II. Also making appearances will be anti-aircraft batteries, anti-tank cannon and more.
In addition, the powerful cannon will be followed in the museum's Veterans Weekend armor parade by the iconic Sherman tank similar to the armor that appeared in the Brad Pitt movie "Fury" which seeks to portray the intensity of combat in the closing days of World War II.
The museum is asking any veterans with artillery experience to arrive during the weekend willing to offer video testimony on what it was like to "serve the guns" and the role they played in either World War II, Korea or Vietnam. "The Sherman tank may capture the public's attention but artillery is often the deciding factor in winning battles. This year we seek to focus on that role and the men who served in the artillery," stated museum director Mark Renton.
Operational vehicles now on display at the Museum of American Armor include the iconic Sherman tank, a Stuart tank used extensively by the Marines during their Pacific campaigns, a potent 155 mm howitzer, reconnaissance vehicles that acted as armored scouts for American forces, anti-aircraft guns and similar weapons that broke the back of the Axis powers during World War II. Other vehicles range from a classic LaSalle staff car in the markings of a Fleet Admiral, to jeeps, weapons carriers and half-tracks.
Beyond World War II programs, tribute efforts are being scheduled to honor the American service men and women who have served in Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf, Iraq, Afghanistan and the War on Terror so that the museum is able to fulfill its mission of honoring America's defense of freedom throughout the decades.
The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday, 10 AM to 4 PM. Admission is $10, adults; $7, children 5 – 12 (under 5 are free); and $7, seniors, volunteer firefighters and veterans. Admission to the armor museum also allows you access to Old Bethpage Village Restoration.

A bid for devolution for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight was submitted to government last year.
Since then, there has been a series of meetings with government officials, ministers and the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government; the process being overseen by a Devolution Board, which includes all local authority leaders.
The situation is currently rather fluid. Last month the government made clear it would only pursue devolution bids which included an elected Mayor. That is not something most Hampshire and Isle of Wight councils wanted, and the bid was 'paused'.
The BBC has reported that a deal has been reached for devolution in the Solent area. The deal encompasses Solent Local Enterprise Partnership and the councils of Isle of Wight, East Hampshire, Gosport, Fareham, Eastleigh, Havant and Portsmouth and Southampton. It is thought this area will become a combined authority with an elected mayor. Details are still very hazy and we hope more information will be released in the Budget tomorrow (16 March).
It is interesting that the Department for Communities and Local Government said devolution was "a bottom-up process", and yet there has still not been a single public consultation on the issue.

Calendar Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
Next Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo Tuesday, 2 February 2021
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed on February 2, 1848, and marked an important event in American history. Officially, the document is titled the Treaty of Peace, Friendship, Limits and Settlement between the United States of America and the Mexican Republic and it was the treaty that put an end to the Mexican War (1846-1848). It was this document that drew the border between the United States and Mexico at the Rio Grande and the Gila River, and that established the purchase of the territories of Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Texas and California by the United States from Mexico.
It was the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo that officially completed the territorial expansion of the United States.
On May 13, 1846, the United States declared war on Mexico as the two countries disputed the territory of the Republic of Texas, which had won independence from Mexico in 1836. Tensions between the two countries had been high since 1845, when Texas was admitted into the Union by President James Polk. The biggest conflict was over which borders belonged to which country, and American troops occupied the lands between the Nueces and the Rio Grande after the Mexican government refused to sell California and New Mexico to the United States.
Texas saw this as an act of aggression against their country and set their troops across the Rio Grande. This was seen as an invasion of American soil, and President James Polk declared war on Mexico.
The war lasted almost two years, until the defeat of the Mexican army and the fall of Mexico City in September 1847. The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed on February 2, 1848, and officially ended the Mexican War. Mexico was forced to give up their claims to Texas and recognize the Rio Grande as America's southern boundary between Texas and Mexico. The United States also gained 525,000 square miles of territory. In return, the United States paid $15 million to the Mexican government.
The Aftermath of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo
With the signing of the treaty Mexicans living in the newly purchased territories were offered U.S. citizenship. If they chose to remain Mexican citizens they would have to relocate back to Mexico. While the treaty had provisions that promised to protect the rights of the thousands of Mexicans who lived in the now-American territories, their ways of life came under attack and they were discriminated by the new settlers, which caused decades of conflict.
Abolitionists also opposed the Mexican War and the signing of the treaty, as new land would mean that slavery would be expanded into new territories as well. Bills were presented to Congress asking that slavery was prohibited in any territories acquired by the United States after the war, but the bills did not pass. So, even though the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ended the Mexican War, it fostered the war over slavery that was happening in the United States, which led to the outbreak of the Civil War (1861-1865).

The Uzbekistani government is conducting unlawful surveillance of its citizens and fostering a climate of fear and uncertainty for Uzbekistani people in Europe, said Amnesty International in a new report and film launched today.
'We Will Find You, Anywhere' looks at the impact of unlawful government surveillance on the lives of seven Uzbekistani people, living within and outside the country. The cases include a refugee living in Sweden, whose correspondence with family members back home was monitored, and a journalist forced to flee to France after being watched by secret service officials.
"This report reveals the far-reaching effects of mass surveillance not only on the human rights of people in Uzbekistan, but on Uzbekistani people in Europe," said Joshua Franco, Technology and Human Rights Researcher at Amnesty International.
"Within Uzbekistan, the authorities have created an environment of suspicion where surveillance, or the perceived threat of it, is an ever present fact of life for human rights defenders, journalists and political activists.
The report documents the case of Dilshod (not his real name) a refugee living in Sweden and an activist in the Uzbekistani political opposition. Members of Dilshod's family are no longer willing to be in contact with him after receiving visits from the police shortly after speaking to him on the telephone.
His dying aunt even received a visit from secret service officials following a telephone conversation with her nephew.
In Uzbekistan, it is routine practice for the authorities to harass and threaten families as a means of exerting pressure on them to disclose information on a suspect.
In late 2014, the email account of Galima Bukharbaeva, the Berlin-based Uzbekistani editor of the independent news platform UzNews.net, was hacked. When the contents of her private emails were posted on Uzbekistani websites, the local journalists with whom she worked secretly were exposed and put at risk.
Not only were Kamolova and other journalists forced to flee Uzbekistan following the email hacking in Berlin, but the site for which they worked – Uznews.net - was eventually forced to close down as well.
In another case outlined in the report, human rights defender Dmitry Tikhonov was forced to flee the country after personal data made public by hacking was used to threaten him with prosecution.
The legal frameworks created by the Uzbekistani government to regulate surveillance only serve to facilitate its widespread use, contrary to human rights law and standards. These frameworks provide the government with direct access to telecoms data and ensurethat many types of surveillance do not require legal authorization.
"The Uzbekistani authorities have designed a system where surveillance and the expectation of surveillance is not the exception, but the norm," said Joshua Franco.
"It's an environment of constant fear for Uzbekistani people, where every phone call, every email and every text message might not be private. The restrictions that this places on people's lives and freedoms are unbearable and unacceptable.
Surveillance in Uzbekistan is reinforcing an already hostile environment for human rights defenders, journalists, political activists and others in the country. In recent years Amnesty International has documented serious human rights violations, including arbitrary detention and pervasive torture by law enforcement forces and secret service officials.
Human rights defenders, government critics and independent journalists have been forced to leave Uzbekistan to escape arrest or sustained harassment and intimidation by security forces and local authorities.
Those few who remain in the country are routinely monitored by uniformed or plain-clothes law enforcement officers and secret service officials. Human rights defenders and journalists continue to be summoned for questioning at their local police stations, placed under house arrest or otherwise prevented from attending meetings with foreign diplomats and delegations, or from taking part in peaceful demonstrations. They are often beaten and detained by law enforcement officers or beaten by people suspected of working for the secret service.


WASHINGTON (AP) — The government knows who you're calling.
A: The Guardian newspaper published a highly classified April U.S. court order that allows the government access to all of Verizon's phone records on a daily basis, for both domestic and international calls. That doesn't mean the government is listening in, and the National Security Agency did not receive the names and addresses of customers. But it did receive all phone numbers with outgoing or incoming calls, as well as the unique electronic numbers that identify cellphones. That means the government knows which phones are being used, even if customers change their numbers.
A: In 2005, The New York Times revealed that Bush had signed a secret order allowing the NSA to eavesdrop on Americans without court approval, a seismic shift in policy for an agency that had previously been prohibited from spying domestically. The exact scope of that program has never been known, but it allowed the NSA to monitor phone calls and emails. After it became public, the Bush administration dubbed it the "Terrorist Surveillance Program" and said it was a critical tool in protecting the United States from attack.
"The NSA program is narrowly focused, aimed only at international calls and targeted at al-Qaida and related groups," the Justice Department said at the time.
But while wiretapping got all the attention, the government was also collecting call logs from American phone companies as part of that program, a U.S. official said Thursday. After the wiretapping controversy, the collection of call records continued, albeit with court approval. That's what we're seeing in the newly released court document: a judge's authorization for something that began years ago with no court oversight.
A: They're not interested in your records, in all likelihood, but your calls make up the background noise of the global phone system.
Look at your monthly phone bill, and you'll see patterns: calls home as you leave work, food delivery orders on Friday nights, that once-a-week call to mom and dad.
It's like that, except on a monumentally bigger scale.
The classified court ruling doesn't say what the NSA intends to do with your records. But armed with the nation's phone logs, the agency's computers have the ability to identify what normal call behavior looks like. And, with powerful computers, it would be possible to compare the entire database against computer models the government believes show what terrorist calling patterns look like.
Further analysis could identify what are known in intelligence circles as "communities of interest" — the networks of people who are in contact with targets or suspicious phone numbers.
Over time, the records also become a valuable archive. When officials discover a new phone number linked to a suspected terrorist, they can consult the records to see who called that number in the preceding months or years.
A: It's probably not. A former U.S. intelligence official familiar with the NSA program says that records from all U.S. phone companies would be seized, and that they would include business and residential numbers. Only the court order involving Verizon has been made public.
The court document published by The Guardian, however, offers credence to the original USA Today story, which declared: "The NSA program reaches into homes and businesses across the nation by amassing information about the calls of ordinary Americans — most of whom aren't suspected of any crime."
In this instance, Judge Roger Vinson authorized the NSA to seize the phone records under a provision in the USA Patriot Act, which passed shortly after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and vastly expanded the government's ability to collect information on Americans.
A: The judge relied on one of the most controversial aspects of the Patriot Act: Section 215, which became known colloquially as the "library records provision" because it allowed the government to seize a wide range of documents, including library records. Under that provision, the government must show that there are "reasonable grounds to believe" that the records are relevant to an investigation intended to "protect against international terrorism or clandestine intelligence activities."
Exactly what "relevant" meant has been unclear. With the release of the classified court order, the public can see for the first time that everyone's phone records are relevant.
Some in Congress, however, have been sounding alarms about it for years. Though they are prohibited from revealing what they know about the surveillance programs, Democratic Sens. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Mark Udall or Colorado have said the government's interpretation of the law has gone far beyond what the public believes.
"We believe most Americans would be stunned to learn the details of how these secret court opinions have interpreted section 215 of the Patriot Act," the senators wrote in a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder last year.
Q: Why don't others in Congress seem that upset about all this?
A: Many members of Congress have known this was going on for years. While Americans might be surprised to see, in writing, an authorization to sweep up their phone records, that's old news to many in Congress.
"Everyone should just calm down and understand that this isn't anything that's brand new," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said Thursday. "It's been going on for some seven years."
"The executive branch's use of this authority has been briefed extensively to the Senate and House Intelligence and Judiciary Committees, and detailed information has been made available to all members of Congress."
A: So far, very little. Despite campaigning against Bush's counterterrorism efforts, President Barack Obama has continued many of the most controversial ones including, it is now clear, widespread monitoring of American phone records.
"NSA collects, monitors, and analyzes a variety of (asterisk)(asterisk)(asterisk)FOREIGN(asterisk)(asterisk)(asterisk) signals and communications for indications of threats to the United States and for information of value to the U.S. government," she wrote. " (asterisk)(asterisk)(asterisk)FOREIGN(asterisk)(asterisk)(asterisk) is the operative word. NSA is not an indiscriminate vacuum, collecting anything and everything."
Q: Why hasn't anyone sued over this? Can I?
A: People have sued. But challenging the legality of secret wiretaps is difficult because, in order to sue, you have to know you've been wiretapped. In 2006, for instance, a federal judge in Detroit declared the NSA warrantless wiretapping program unconstitutional. But the ruling was overturned when an appeals court that said the plaintiffs — civil rights groups, lawyers and scholars — didn't have the authority to sue because they couldn't prove they were wiretapped.
Court challenges have also run up against the government's ability to torpedo lawsuits that could jeopardize state secrets.
A: Not under this court order, but it's not clear whether the NSA is monitoring email content as part of this program.
In 2006, former AT&T technician Mark Klein described in federal court papers how a "splitter" device in San Francisco siphoned millions of Americans' Internet traffic to the NSA. That probably included data sent to or from AT&T Internet subscribers, such as emails and the websites they visited.
Most email messages are sent through the Internet in "plain-text" form, meaning they aren't encrypted and anyone with the right tools can view their contents. Similar to an old-fashioned envelope and letter, every email contains details about whom it's from and where it's supposed to go.
Unlike postal letters, those details can include information that can be linked to a subscriber's billing account, even if he or she wants to remain anonymous.
In May 2012, Wyden and Udall asked the NSA how many people inside the United States had their communications "collected or reviewed."
The intelligence community's inspector general, I. Charles McCullough III, told the senators that providing such an estimate "would likely impede the NSA's mission" and "violate the privacy of U.S. persons."
Associated Press writers Jack Gillum and Lara Jakes contributed to this report.

President Pranab Mukherjee watches from the stands as Mohun Bagan U-19 defeat East Bengal U-19
The match was organized to kick-off a youth football tournament which is held every year with much fanfare.
President Pranab Mukherjee's love for football became evident once again on Friday evening when he took time out of his busy schedule to attend the inauguration of a youth football tournament that he himself had started organizing seven years back.
Mukherjee, whose five year stay at the Rashtrapati Bhawan will be coming to an end in the next fortnight, had started this competition in the memory of his late father Kamada Kinkar Mukhopadhyay in his constituency Jangipur and since then it has regularly featured in the Kolkata based youth teams' calendars.

In front of a chock-a-block crowd, Mohun Bagan U-19 defeated their arch-rivals East Bengal 1-0 with the goal coming from Debanna Chakraborty, an academy product who had participated in the U-16 I-League last year. Both the squads were full with players who had taken part in the U-18 I-League earlier this summer, where the Red and Golds had finished second best behind the AIFF Elite Academy.

Melbourne, Australia-based band, Amyl and The Sniffers, recently had a successful sell-out show at Underground Arts and played an exciting setlist full of their latest songs. They were joined by fellow bands C.O.F.F.I.N and Upchuck.
The audience was treated to a powerful performance by C.O.F.F.I.N, a five-piece punk/rock/metal band, from Norway. The group's sound can best be described as angry yet catchy, with heavy beats mixed into fast-paced songs that had the crowd moshing and headbanging along through their whole set.
Following C.O.F.F.I.N was Upchuck. Based in Atlanta, this high-energy punk group is one of the most exciting up-and-coming bands in its music scene. Their songs have been described as "in your face with rebel yell vocals, fast-paced drums, and heavy guitar riffs all over a catchy bassline." Upchuck's performance was filled with heavy bass riffs and growly vocals that had the whole crowd moving front and center in the circle pit and crowd diving off the stage.
Finally, the crowd went wild when Amyl and the Sniffers took the stage. They were rowdy, intense, and well deserved of the show's sold-out status. There wasn't a fan not screaming along as the group powered their way through favorites such as "Guided by Angels" and "Gnacked on Anger."
The Sniffers are currently on tour, so be sure to check out their website for dates and locations. If you can't catch them live, be sure to pick up a copy of Comfort to Me – it's worth a listen.

Hildegarde Flanner
American writer
Alternative Titles: June Hildegarde Flanner, Monhoff, Hildegarde
Hildegarde Flanner, in full June Hildegarde Flanner, married name Monhoff, (born June 3?, 1899, Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.—died May 27, 1987, Calistoga, California), American poet, essayist, and playwright known for her traditional poems that conjured images of nature and the California landscape and spoke to her passion for the environment.

Meet extraordinary women who dared to bring gender equality and other issues to the forefront. From overcoming oppression, to breaking rules, to reimagining the world or waging a rebellion, these women of history have a story to tell.
Flanner was the youngest of three daughters born to Francis William and Mary Ellen Hockett Flanner, who brought up their children in a progressive and intellectual household with a strong appreciation for the arts. (Each of the sisters chose creative career paths. The eldest, Marie, became a musician and composer in New York, and the middle sister, Janet, became a well-respected writer for The New Yorker magazine, writing under the name "Genêt.") In 1912 their father committed suicide, leaving the family a large sum of money to live on. Upon graduation from high school, Flanner briefly attended Sweet Briar College in Sweet Briar, Virginia, and then moved to California, where she continued her studies at the University of California, Berkeley, beginning in 1919.
Flanner's early poetry was autobiographical, written through the lens of her religious upbringing. While still in school, she wrote "Young Girl" (1920), which received a school prize awarded annually to the best unpublished poem. Shortly after receiving the prize, her first volume of poetry, Young Girl and Other Poems, was published, as was her one-act play, Mansions (both 1920). A poem titled "Communion" appeared in Poetry magazine in 1921. That same year it was included in a small collection called This Morning (1921), with a cover designed by Frederick Monhoff, an artist and graduate of Berkeley, whom Flanner married in 1926. Monhoff went on to illustrate and design nearly all of Flanner's publications throughout her career.
She and her mother, who had gone to live with her, experienced the devastating Berkeley fire of 1923, and she wrote a memoir, "Wildfire: Berkeley, 1923," in 1974 that was published in The New Yorker. She also wrote of that event in the sonnet "To My Books Who Perished by Fire," published in Poetry in 1927. Following the fire, which destroyed the home she shared with her mother (along with hundreds more), they moved to Altadena, California, near Los Angeles. As Flanner became more rooted in California, she increasingly drew upon nature in her poetry and became more specific about her natural environment, often writing of flowers, plants, and the landscape, as in poems such as "The Snail " (1928), "White Magnolia Blossom" (before 1929), "The Owl" (before 1929), and "Pacific Winter" (1929), all published in Time's Profile (1929), which was illustrated and designed by Monhoff.
Flanner's poems—as well as essays, reviews, and articles on her travels in the Southwest—were published widely in periodicals throughout the 1920s and '30s. Much of Flanner's work in the time leading up to World War II expressed anxious anticipation and fear of natural and human disaster, especially in poems such as "Hawk Is a Woman" and "Rattlesnake." Those poems, and 22 more, were issued in her collection If There Is Time, a New Directions Publishing House "Poet of the Month" publication (1942). After that publication Flanner's poetry writing slowed down, and her focus on the environment became more central. To escape what she saw as the rampant industrialization and ubanization of southern California, Flanner and Monhoff moved to the Napa Valley in 1962.
After a long hiatus Flanner published In Native Light (1970), a collection that included many poems from the 1920s and '30s reprinted alongside engravings by her husband. Three more volumes were published before Flanner's death: The Hearkening Eye (1979), a collection that also included a selection of early and new poems; Brief Cherishing: A Napa Valley Harvest (1985), a series of four essays illustrated by Monhoff's engravings; and At the Gentle Mercy of Plants (1986), which reprinted her 1974 essay on the Berkeley fire and included the essay "Roots and Hedges" and some poems inspired by her garden.

Q: Failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request - Trying To Get YouTube API Data I've recently been trying to get some data with YouTube's analytics API. I'm getting a problem on ONE domain but it's working without any errors on another.
It's using the EXACT same code apart from the form action="" which was changed from index.php to api.php - I just can't figure out why it's working on one domain and isn't on the other?!
The exact error is:

A: EDIT
Here's an example for a v3 api request with cURL. Therefore you need to create an api key in the developer console. If you don't already have a server key, create a new project, select it and then click 'Credentials' (in 'APIs & auth) -> create new key -> server key -> create (you don't have to enter anything if you develop on a local machine).
Then replace the placeholder in the code with your API key.
$api_key = 'YOUR_API_KEY';
$url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet,statistics&key=' . $api_key . '&forUsername=' . $_GET['username'];

// initializes the request
$curl = curl_init();
// sets the url
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $url);

// enables that curl_exec() returns content instead of status code
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);

// allows redirects
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);

// checks if a secure site has been requested
if(preg_match('/^https:\/\//', $url)){
    // if so, verification is disabled
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
}
// performs the actual request
$data = curl_exec($curl);
// destructs the request
curl_close($curl);

// this line converts the json string which is returned into a php object
$data = json_decode($data);

// you can access your stats like this:
var_dump($data->items[0]->statistics->subscriberCount);
var_dump($data->items[0]->statistics->videoCount);
var_dump($data->items[0]->snippet->thumbnails->default->url);

Note that disabling the ssl verification is not recommended in your final product, it's just easier for now. Later, you should properly verify the certificate. (Before you ask, i've never done this)
I hope this works for you.

Original Answer
Looks like allow_url_fopen is disabled in php.ini. If there's a line allow_url_fopen = Off in your php.ini, change it to allow_url_fopen = On.
But I'd prefer using cURL:
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/' . $channelUser);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
$data = curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);

The curl extension has to be enabled, too: extension = php_curl.dll (There could be a similar line starting with a semicolon which you can just remove). But on most configurations, this is already done.
