See iOS 7 on the iPad in first screenshots


This is what iOS 7 will look like on Apple's iPad with retina display, iPad 2 and iPad mini.
Apple unveiled its new iOS mobile software last week, but hasn't really shown off how it will look on the iPad tablet. iOS 7 will come to the iPad at the same time as it hits the iPhone later in the year, but the beta version -- available to download now -- is only for the iPhone 5.
There's only one picture (the one above) on Apple's website of the iPad line-up with the colourful, cleaner, new-look iOS 7 on board. But developers spotted by 9to5Mac, have given us a glimpse of iOS 7 on the iPad by running the new software on the iOS Simulator, a developer tool designed for app-builders to road-test their nascent apps.
The iPad version of the new software still looks similar to the way the current iPad relates to the iPhone: a grid of four icons by five, with a fixed tray at the bottom.
The biggest difference is that some features, most notably the Control Centre, cover up less of the screen. Control Centre is a bar of quick access buttons and shortcuts -- letting you quickly toggle Wi-Fi or flight mode, for instance -- that you drag up from the bottom of the screen. It covers most of the iPhone screen, but is wider and shorter on the iPad and takes up less space.
There also appears to be a red icon in the tablet homescreen that doesn't show up on the phone, which looks like an icon for Photo Booth.
Fingers crossed that as we see more of iOS 7, there are some changes to help the software make the most of the larger screen.
To try out the iOS 7 beta for the iPhone 5 you need to register with Apple as a developer. The software goes public this autumn, and will work on the retina iPad, iPad 2 and iPad mini.
What do you think of iOS 7? Should Apple have taken the opportunity to make some changes specific to the tablet, or should it stay consistent with the iPhone? Table your motions in the comments or on our Facebook page.


Samsung to launch Galaxy S4 Advanced with faster LTE

The device will ship internationally, but due to network constraints in the U.S., it won't be coming here for the time being.
 
Samsung is ready to launch a new Galaxy S4 that will be capable of connecting to the Internet through the LTE-Advanced 4G technology.
Speaking to Reuters in an interview published Monday, Samsung Electronics CEO J.K. Shin said that his company will launch a Galaxy S4 Advanced device designed to connect to the next generation of 4G LTE networks, dubbed LTE-Advanced. According to Shin, while a movie download might take three minutes on a current LTE connection, it would take a little over one minute on LTE-Advanced.

The Galaxy S4 Advanced's chip will be made by Qualcomm, Shin told Reuters. The company plans to launch the device, which will be the first commercial product to actually connect to LTE-Advanced, as early as this month in South Korea.
If all goes well with the Galaxy S4 Advanced, Samsung will likely launch it internationally in markets where the service is available. That means U.S. customers are out -- the only LTE available now in the States is the older, slower version.



8 Tips For Keeping Your Relationships Exciting

No matter what way you slice it, relationships with significant others always require work. Even the best ones can grow a little too… well… comfortable, which is why I was stoked when my good friend Kate Dillon recently opened up in a conversation about what can keep a marriage (or any intimate long-term relationship for that matter) exciting.  

As Kate says, “It’s about finding that formula that works for you.” Every relationship is indeed different, but here are eight ideas from the conversation that we think will help bring excitement and longevity to any relationship. 

1. Stay intellectually stimulated.

Think about what makes a man (or a woman) irresistible. I’m sure we can draw up a number of physical traits, but after having conversations with a number of friends, most — if not all — always seem to mention the importance of mental stimulation. “I think staying intellectually engaging is more important for women,” says Kate. “I don’t want to feel as if I’m the only one bringing ideas to the table.”

Google Adsence celebrating 10 years of shared success

Ten years ago we launched AdSense to help publishers earn money by placing relevant ads on their websites. I can still remember the excitement and anticipation as AdSense went live that first day.
Our small team huddled together in a cramped conference room, and right away we saw that publishers were as excited about AdSense as we were.
Fast-forward 10 years, and AdSense has become a core part of Google’s advertising business. The AdSense community has grown to include more than 2 million publishers, and last year alone, publishers earned more than $7 billion from AdSense. AdSense is a community that thrives because of all the content creators we are so fortunate to partner with. Their stories inspire us to do our part to make AdSense great.


On this occasion, it’s especially inspiring to hear the stories of partners who have been with us since the very beginning—like a retiree in New Zealand who was able to pursue her dream of writing about her garden, a tech support expert in Colorado who can spend more time with his kids, and a theme park reviewer who now sends employees around the world to test and review rides—all thanks to money earned from AdSense.


As part of our 10th anniversary celebration, we hope you’ll tune into our live Hangout on Air today at 10 a.m. PDT (5 p.m. GMT) on the AdSense Google+ page. I look forward to joining several of our partners to share stories from the early days of AdSense, talk about how we’ve all grown since then, and discuss the future for publishers and online advertising. And if you want even more 10th anniversary celebration, just visit our AdSense 10th anniversary page at any time.
The entire team of SLNB wishes you more successes. However we ask you to make accessibility to AbSense program easier in the next decade you going into

Kidnapper's Confession: The Founder Of The Church Have Been Pursuing Me With Sword In My Dreams

The little 2-year-old girl kidnapped from the children church of Living Faith Church in Ota, Ogun State, has been found. The girl, known as Praise, was brought to church on Sunday morning by her parents.

She is now around four years old. Praise was reportedly sold to a woman in Kano. She was recovered from the woman who bought her after the man that kidnapped him confessed...

The kidnapper, while confessing, said he was struck with a strange disease after kidnapping Praise. He also became blind. In addition to this, he said he was always seeing the founder of the church, Bishop David Oyedepo, pursuing him with a sword in his dream, hence his decision to confess his sin.

Bishop Oyedepo said the self-confessed kidnapper was taken to a branch of Winners church by his wife.

There is nothing “impossible” for God to do… just believe!

See how Samsung torture-tested the Galaxy S4

A video from the Korean device maker shows the abuse its Android flagship smartphone is put through before hitting the public.
Samsung's own torture testing of the Galaxy S4 is shocking in its own way.

Samsung has occasionally been criticized in the past for sticking with lighter, plastic-y, and presumably less tough materials in even its flagship phones like the Galaxy S4. But the Korean monolith is out to prove that it did its best to torture-test at least the S4 before unleashing it on our harsh, unforgiving world filled with countless basins of water, fumbling fingers, and perhaps worst of all -- curious kids.
The below video shows the gauntlet of Samsung's "reliability" testing that the Galaxy S4 was run through. Apparently the phone had to survive being dropped a few feet onto a hard, metal surface hundreds of times, free-fall from a height high enough to shatter a ceramic mug, and a front-facing impact hard enough to crush a walnut shell.
We also see the Galaxy S4 submerged in water for "dozens of seconds" and given a "saltwater sauna" among other tests.
The demonstration is pretty impressive, but coming directly from Samsung it obviously isn't that objective. However, it seems in line with what CNET's Luke Westaway found when he put the Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5 through some serious abuse. Scroll down further to see the results of that head-to-head and let me know in the comments if you're convinced that Samsung has created one tough (plastic) cookie.
Language in Korea. you may not understand but the video itself is self-explanatory. Watch before making decision on which smartphone to buy

Ukrainian Aircraft Suspected To Be Loaded With Weapon Grounded In Kano

A suspected Ukrainian aircraft carrying weapons was briefly detained and freed by security operatives at Malam Aminu Kano international airport in Kano state northwest Nigeria.

A source close to airport security told Channels Television that the aircraft had landed for repair during which security began investigation and discovered large quantity of weapons.
“The aircraft landed at about 2am on Sunday and has been freed this afternoon,” he said.
All effort to speak with either the officials of the Federal Aviation Authority or the airport officials was not successful as spokespersons of both agencies were said to have left office.
However, a source close to the Nigerian army told Channels Television that an aircraft from one of the African country was intercepted.
“I know an aircraft was intercepted earlier today but I don’t know where it came from or where it is going,” he said


How Nigerian Celebrities Are Killing Themselves

Apparently basking in the euphoria of a new status, many Nigerians in showbiz throw caution in the wind in the process of “living it up”.
These days, hardly does a month end without news of someone in Nollywood or the Music industry, getting involved in car accident or public brawl…
nolcarac1

This comes as no surprise, especially to those who are in the know of the background of today’s stars. Most of them, even in wildest dreams, never thought they would attain their current standing in the society. In fact, not only do they talk about the rise to fame in interviews, they also author books and record songs on it.

Why we oppose use of condom – Catholic church

The Catholic church says it opposes artificial family planning techniques, because it encourages bastardisation of sexual activities by young people and “impedes normal procreation.”
The Secretary-General of the Catholic Secretariat of Nigeria, Rev. Fr. Ralph Madu, made this clarification in a response to an enquiry by The PUNCH on Sunday.
He said, “The Catholic Church believes that modern means, including the use of condoms is morally bad because it impedes normal procreation. You can meet with your wife when you do not want children and those periods when the woman is not fertile instead of having to destroy the sperm and all other forms of artificial prevention.
“They are very artificial means and they do not really give the moral lesson that borders around the use of the sexual organs.
“The one that gives you the opportunity to exercise your sexual urge without the consequences is the natural method and the church says you should go for the natural means.”
According to him, the excuse that it reduces the spread of HIV/AIDS remains invalid and untenable, adding HIV/AIDS is a disease that is prevalent among young people.
Madu added, “When you are talking about condom among young people, you are also talking about promiscuity. People have adduced arguments in case of people with HIV/AIDS and especially couples who do not want children. The use of condom and other modern means are being bastardised among young young people because they will resort to the use of condom so that they can have sex freely without impregnating the woman or getting pregnant.
“Those are various artificial means and the church is strongly against them. Instead, the church endorsed the natural method of copulation.”
