Do you believe in the power of makeup? (Amazing, art, beauty, girl, women, before and after)

Seeing is believing!  Now you know not to expect too much on profile pictures on Facebook ;-)

Why is this woman on the fence with her pants down

The first impression of this image would lead one to believe that this young damsel is attempting to prank a neighbor, by taking a dump in their yard. No, she does not wish to give a shit in the neighbor's garden. There has to be another reason why is this woman on the fence with her pants down.
Perhaps she was trying on ladies clothing or maybe rehearsing a scene for a new movie being filmed. It seems a little chilly outside so there must be a good explanation as to why she would caught in such a condition as this.
The fact is this girl had just stolen something from a nearby store, meats of some sort and the stores security guards set off in pursuit of her. They chased the woman into a nearby back yard.

Was the Cloaked Alien ship over Malaysia sending and receiving twitter messages

A massive cloaked disk shaped UFO was photographed and seen by many eyewitnesses in the Malaysian Beach Resort of Tuaran. The blue white object seemed to be immersed within the clouds above. Obviously the ship was cloaked and the white was clouds passing around it. Was the Cloaked Alien ship over Malaysia sending and receiving twitter messages? This UFO was witnessed by employees and guests alike . No Alien video available yet though.
According to researchers, the searches for extraterrestrial life are in the wrong direction: you have to look to social networks.
The signals that would be sent to media alien intelligence should be similar to reports in the social network "Twitter". This is the conclusion astrophysicist Gregory Benford and his twin brother, James Benford, a physicist and president of Microwave Sciences, according to Daily Mail.

According to them, alien civilizations are more likely to send short directed signals in the range of one to ten gigahertz, but not the volume of the messages transmitted in all directions.

The reason lies in greater efficiency of such technology by saving resources, to which we are confident the study's authors tend to all sentient beings, even alien.

Thus, for interplanetary communication it is more suitable to "Twitter", rather than "War and Peace", says James Benford.

Transmission of signals over a distance of many light years requires considerable resources. According to researchers, if you look at the situation from the perspective of the aliens, it is clear those members of the American project "Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence" (SETI) for five decades have used an incorrect method.

Searches which are carried out by members of the SETI project, Benford assimilated as the work of a lighthouse, which looks for a signal that is constant through galactic space. But this approach may allow undetected short messages from being seen.

Also, the brothers believe that SETI is looking for not only 'wrong' but also 'non existent' types of signals. The strategy implies that SETI searches of unusual signals from nearby stellar sites. Instead, the brothers believe, they need to target the center of the galaxy.

The stars appearing there in the center are billions of years older than our Sun. This makes it possible to hope to meet with fairly advanced civilization, according to the brothers.
It reminds of an incident, August 15, 1977 when a radio telescope in Ohio took the unusual tone, which lasted 72 seconds. The signal received the title 'Wow signal' because of the inscription on the fields of printing signal, expressed surprise.

The signal came from the empty space in the constellation Sagittarius. He just passed on the frequency at which the researchers had expected signals from aliens.

Since then, no one has been able to explain the nature of this signal, as well as hear it again. So do you think the giant cloaked saucer was sending twitter messages?

2010 Review: Samsung S8530 Wave II - Go with the Wave! (preview, tech, news, report, Auckland, "Android Repair"


Introduction


They shall come in wave upon wave. Or so it seemed in the beginning. Samsung certainly wanted a strong start for their own Bada OS and they had it. It is usual for sequels to be questioned and belittled. That’s one thing the Wave II doesn’t have to worry about. It’s bigger and heavier than the original.  http://tiny.cc/samsung8530

When the second gen phone has a familiar sounding model name with an actual ordinal number in it – that doesn’t mean a complete lack of imagination. It’s a way to promote continuity. The Wave II has this base covered too – it’s nearly the same phone as the first Wave but presumably upgraded to reach to a more high-end market segment. Here’s a quick recap of its specs:

Key features

3.7" 16M-color Super Clear LCD capacitive touchscreen, WVGA (480 x 800 pixels), multi-touch input, scratch-resistant glass surface
Slim and solid metal body
Bada OS 1.2 with Samsung Apps
ARM Cortex A8 based 1GHz CPU
Quad-band GSM support with dual-band HSPA
Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n connectivity with WPS support, Wi-Fi tethering
Built-in GPS receiver with A-GPS support, digital compass, Samsung LBS powered by ROUTE 66
5 MP autofocus camera with touch focus and LED flash, geotagging, face, smile and blink detection
720p video recording at 30fps
2GB internal storage, microSDHC card slot
Standard microUSB port and Bluetooth v3.0 with A2DP
Standard 3.5mm audio jack, TV out
Stereo FM radio with RDS, FM recording
Webkit-based Samsung Dolphin Browser 2.0 with Flash support
YouTube client, Facebook and Twitter integration
DivX/XviD video support
Good audio quality
Main disadvantages
Limited number of available applications
Super Clear LCD can’t match SuperAMOLED
Card slot under the battery
No lens protection
SatNav software only a 30-day trial
No ambient light sensor to adjust screen brightness automatically
Poor loudspeaker performance
Wave II over original Wave
Latest Bada OS 1.2
Swype-like T9 Trace text input
Over-the-Air software updates
Larger 3.7" touchscreen

Yep, we know, it’s not a great update. Plus the first three differences over the original Wave are about to be washed away once it receives its due software update to Bada OS 1.2.
 

The Samsung S8530 Wave II may not be the upgrade that all users have been waiting for, but the phone runs the latest version of the Bada OS and has kept all the great features of the original: from the powerful CPU, to premium connectivity and HD video recording.

And all this is delivered on a larger 3.7-inch display. Sure, it’s no SuperAMOLED screen but Samsung promises the LCD screen is not your ordinary screen, too. You see, good things come in limited number and Samsung is pressed to supply enough SuperAMOLEDs for their Android and Windows Phone 7 operations.
 

Bad luck for the Wave II, we guess. Even worse for the original Wave – this phone will be as good as discontinued when the stocks run out. The Wave II will take over and that’s that.
Anyway, Samsung are probably not giving up on their Bada OS. If it eventually becomes the base platform for all their midrange touch phones, they will be extremely well positioned to adapt to the new market reality.
 

It’s not about the business benefits or the multitasking – it’s as simple as apps. Users love to have them and makers love to sell them. Imagine being able to do that on all levels – from the most basic feature phones to the top-of-the-line smart devices. That must be enough reason for Samsung to keep their commitment to Bada.


Like it or not, the Samsung S8530 Wave II is just a step in the process. We’re about to see whether it’s as compelling as its predecessor. As usual, we start with the design and hardware, and then put Bada 1.2 under the microscope.
