Saudi holidaymakers have a special affinity with Dubai, a promotions official has claimed.
Speaking to Arab News at a roadshow event for Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS), Mohammed Ali Al-Kamali, acting marketing director of DSS, said visitors from Saudi Arabia would particularly enjoy this year's festival of shopping and tourism events.
He commented: "DSS is firmly etched in the minds of Saudi vacationers and we expect many more of them to enjoy the surprises this year than in the last few years."
DSS, which began yesterday (June 17th) and runs until August 7th, will feature over 150 participating retail outlets this year and offer "unbeatable bargains, daily raffle draws, family entertainment shows, spa discounts and signature events during the Middle East's biggest summer extravaganza".
As Arab News observed, the 2009 edition of DSS attracted 2.2 million visitors to Dubai, which resulted in consumer expenditure totaling AED3.37 billion, an increase of around five per cent on DSS 2008.
Mr Al-Kamali noted that since DSS was launched in 1998, an increasing number of visitors from Saudi Arabia and elsewhere in the GCC have attended.

We have a tendency to prepare ourselves for the attacks of the evil one where we are the weakest. But experience has taught me that Satan often attacks where we are seemingly the strongest. Today's word is designed to be both a comfort and a caution to you as you go throughout your day.
In today's verse we read of Peter's sold-out commitment and service to his Savior. Peter was confident in his commitment to Christ, but, ultimately, Peter's confidence was in himself. Peter was boasting of his own strength, and this is exactly where the devil found his foothold.
Peter was unaware of the weakness of his strengths. We must all remember that the enemy's attacks will come, not only at our weak points or during our low periods, but also at the peak of what we consider to be our strengths. Peter was secure in his belief that his own strength and will could withstand any attack that might come his way, and that is exactly where Satan tripped him up, exposing Peter's true, natural condition: harassed and helpless apart from his Shepherd.
What was true for Peter is true for you and me. We have all been tripped up by the devil in places we felt the strongest. Our strength is our weakness when, like Samson, we trust in the gift of our strength rather than in the One who gave us that gift. We must never believe that we are safe in our strengths; we are only safe in the strength of our Savior, who is at work within us. To be sure, the devil looks for chinks in our armor and launches his attacks, but we must also be ready to do battle with the evil one in areas where we believe we are fully armored.
When we find ourselves in the cross-hairs of the world, the flesh, and the devil, let us remember that we can do all things . . . but only those things in which Christ has strengthened us. The best way to keep our strengths from becoming our weaknesses to the watching world is to keep our eye of faith fixed on Jesus, the One who has promised us victory in Him and in Him alone. It is in His strength, nor our strength, where we will stand firm against every attack the devil sends our way.
As James said, "Resist the devil and he will flee from you" (James 4:7). Christian, remember that where we are weak, there Christ is strong.


Alcoholism and substance abuse have harmful and completely devastating effects on both individuals using the substance and their loved ones. Adults and children are all affected by abuse of substances, even unborn children are at risk due to narcotic-dependent parents.
The physical effects of drugs and alcohol alone are enough to make someone think about changing their life and habits for the better. Many individuals struggling with their addiction may not notice the long-term problems their abuse is causing on their bodies, here are some of the effects of these substances on the physical body.
Addiction often results in a weakened immune system which increases the likelihood of developing illnesses and infections related to those diseases.
Various heart conditions that range from heart attacks to damage within the small and large blood vessels due to injecting drugs.
Liver damage can occur with prolonged consumption of alcohol and other substances that have to be filtered through the liver. This could result in liver failure.
Seizures and stroke are also common effects of drug abuse, as well as mental confusion resulting from brain damage.
Lung disease is another side effect of drug abuse and alcohol addiction. Emphysema, lung cancer, and chronic bronchitis can occur within individuals struggling with addiction.
Decision-making skills can also be hindered by prolonged use of drugs and alcohol, making life difficult to manage.
Opioids depress breathing, which can worsen conditions like asthma.
Stimulants like cocaine cause damage to the heart every time they are used.
Drugs that are injected into the system can cause veins to collapse over time.
Kidney damage and failure can be the cause of the increased body temperature many drugs cause as well as dehydration and the breakdown of muscle tissue.
Mental Effects – Mentally, drugs are tiring and take a large toll on individuals and their processing. There are various short and long-term effects on the brain and mental functioning when it involves substances like drugs and alcohol. Mood regulation can be thrown out of whack with the use of drugs and alcohol. Substances fall into the category of either being a depressant or a stimulant. Depressants depress the nervous system, slowing down breathing and motor functions as well as brain activity. Stimulants do the opposite, increasing nervous system activity, such as increasing heart rate and giving users a feeling of energy and hyperactivity.
Drugs that stimulate the system can cause paranoia and anxiety in individuals.
There are instances of drug-induced anxiety that cause increased heart rate, shortness of breath, sweating, and fear of losing control.
Surroundings may feel strange and unreal, or you may think you are losing yourself or your sense of identity.
Psychosis can be caused or exacerbated by stimulants, individuals may see or hear things that are not there and may lash out violently in fear.
Depression can be a symptom of prolonged use. When stimulants are not in use, individuals can feel sad as their brains do not release dopamine as they would in a non-user.
There may be times when you feel restless, irritable, tired, or feel as though nothing is pleasurable in life.
Manic moods can become an issue, with users feeling as though they are on top of the world and in charge of everything when they are using a substance. These moods, however, are often temporary.
If you notice someone battling with their substance abuse and they show any of the following symptoms, speak with them or a professional immediately.
Help is out there for individuals that want to get clean and live a better and more prosperous life. The change can come if they stay dedicated to the course and get treatment.


A year on, she's much more able to understand things, and so I thought I'd explained to her that Homer is nothing to do with Christmas. We've been reading her the nativity story, and The Night Before Christmas poem, so we're trying to give her an idea of what Christmas is traditionally about. I thought this was case closed.
At the weekend ThingOne saw a picture of the whole Simpson family in The Guardian. She was interested as she'd recently seen a picture of Lisa Simpson on a birthday card and was keen to know who the other Simpsons were. All was fine until we got to the dog. ThingOne asked the dog's name.
"OK, ThingOne, I will tell you, but you need to remember that I told you that Homer Simpson is NOT Santa. He's completely different."
"He's called Santa's Little Helper."
Confused silence. The kind of confused silence you hear when a child feels she's been lied to by her dad.
"But, ThingOne, that's just his name. He's not Santa's dog, he's Homer's dog. Well, Bart's dog I think."
"Shall we do something else ThingOne? Would you like a biscuit?"
I may need to show her some Simpsons episodes. Just not one where Homer dresses as Santa.

Norman (Freddie Highmore) is shattered after he accidentally causes the death of a stray dog he hoped to tame. He takes the dog, named "Juno," to see Emma's taxidermist father, Will. Norman says that Will "can fix dead things."
Will (Ian Hart) explains that the first part of the job isn't a pretty one, but it can't be helped. They'll have to make an incision and "take everything out." Norman tells him that he figured as much.
Will gives Norman a text book so he can better understand the taxidermy process. Will notices Norman's sad expression and tells him he's sorry for his loss. Norman responds that he felt it would be dishonorable to just put her in the ground.
After Norman compliments his work, Will asks if he'd like to help him in the studio. He thinks that Norman may have a knack for the artistry of taxidermy. Norman seems to like the idea.
Dylan (Max Thieriot) and Remo (Ian Tracey) stop for the night on their way to pick up the trimmers who will be helping with the new marijuana crop. They grab a drink, but it's not long before Remo starts giving Dylan a hard time.
Sick of Remo's complaining, Dylan decides to give him a piece of his mind. He tells Remo that the reason he's working for a 21-year-old is because he's a pathetic, self-destructive loser.
Remo doesn't appreciate Dylan's insight.
Remo winds up and sucker-punches Dylan in the face, and the two fall drunkenly to the floor.
Remo and Dylan wrestle on the floor of the bar until Dylan kicks his grizzled employee off and struggles free.
Dylan lurches to his feet. Remo is waiting for him, but in his drunken state there's no way he's going to dodge Dylan's attack.
The bartender watches as Dylan lays into Remo and the two end up back on the floor.
Dylan nails Remo in the head with a beer bottle, then climbs on top to deliver a finishing blow to his face.
Dylan offers Remo a hand up, certain that the older man is done fighting for the night...
...but Remo has one last shot left in him. Dylan and Remo collapse to the floor. Again.
As they lie panting on the ground, Remo tells Dylan, "You better watch out for me, golden boy. I'll try to destroy you."
Back in White Pine Bay, Norman and Will chat as they work on Juno. Will tells him that he stopped doing taxidermy when he was married, since Emma's mother didn't like it.
Will says that he rediscovered himself when Emma's mother left. Norman is sorry about Will's wife leaving, but Will tells him he was happy to leave that life behind, and he was even happier to get Emma.
As Norman works on Juno, Emma walks in. She apologizes for telling Bradley's friends that Norman and Bradley slept together. She admits that she likes Norman, but wants to make sure that he knows her reasons for telling them had nothing to do with her feelings. She was defending him.
Emma (Olivia Cooke) tells him that she understands that he may never be her boyfriend, but she's used to things not turning out the way she wants. He's special to her. She feels safe with him, and doesn't want to lose him. Norman apologizes to Emma for being mad, and the two embrace, friends again.

The Pathological Moseyers Visit the Bog
March 7, 2017 December 23, 2019 Laura Erickson Blogs, Wildlife
I was in Colorado this month during the annual Sax-Zim Bog Birding Festival. It's sad when even a lovely conflict makes me miss the wonderful local event, so on Saturday I headed to the bog with my little birding dog Pip and my friend Lisa.
Earlier in the week, the forecast had called for snow on Friday, but that didn't pan out. The 7-degree temperature and high winds made it a little unpleasant putting gas in my car first thing in the morning, but clear roads and glorious sunny skies in the bog made up for that.
If I had a rock band, I'd call us the Pathological Moseyers. I don't like rushing from place to place, or bird to bird. Even when covering a lot of ground, as we did on Saturday, I like to take my time, driving slowly and staying at birdy spots longer than more acquisitive birders enjoy.
Electric Puppy (photo by Lisa Johnson)
We saw a few crows and ravens on our way into the bog, but our first exciting sighting of the morning wasn't a bird at all but two coyotes, crossing the road together and then splitting up. They weren't close, but were curious enough about us to stop and look—Lisa and I both got photos. There's genuine magic in seeing coyotes or wolves. We of course stayed in the car—my little dog Pip didn't pay much attention.
As we approached Correction Line Road, we watched for and found 8 displaying Sharp-tailed Grouse way in from the road on their lek, too far for photos. We didn't see the pheasant that's been reported in the same area, nor did we see any of the Wild Turkeys hanging out in the bog recently, nor any Ruffed Grouse which are ostensibly there all the time, and which Lisa was specifically hungry to see. But I was happy with the Sharp-tails, even from so very far away.
This year, owls have been few and far between—not one Northern Hawk Owl has been reported from the bog all season. We watched for owls as we worked our way to the Sax-Zim Bog Visitors Center to check out the feeders. We got skunked on owls for the day, but did see some spectacular Rough-legged Hawks. We didn't spot any magpies this time, and saw more Bald Eagles on our way back to Duluth than we found in the bog.
A couple of distant Gray Jays were hanging out near the Visitor Center feeders, and Pine Siskins were wonderfully abundant, making their exuberant chattering sounds, punctuated with their zippy rising song—I've been hearing that a lot in my own yard, too. In my own yard I've been seeing a handful of American Goldfinches, which I didn't find in the bog, but did find some Common Redpolls hanging out with the siskins at the Visitors Center feeders.
At the feeding station on Admiral Road, two Gray Jays posed for lots of close-up photos. Boreal Chickadees have been exceptionally hard to find this season, and sure enough, we didn't see any. But I got some wonderful Black-capped Chickadee photos at the Admiral Road feeders.
Lisa was positioned in the car perfectly to get nice Red-breasted Nuthatch pictures out her window—I missed that opportunity, but was fine focusing on Red Squirrels instead.
My total of 15 species for the morning seems rather paltry, but the quality of the experiences more than made up for the low number. We birders try to set up situations to maximize the variety and the number of birds we see, but the joy comes from individual encounters, which no abstract number can truly summarize.
Even if it were the only thing I saw all day, the sparkle in a Black-capped Chickadee's eye fills me with joy that lasts.
Robert Frost took that same deep pleasure in simple bird encounters.
Dust of Snow
The way a crow Shook down on me The dust of snow From a hemlock tree
Has given my heart A change of mood And saved some part Of a day I had rued.

The sequel has moved us 30 years ahead of the events of the first film into a gloomy world of the future, to survive in which it becomes increasingly difficult. People colonized other planets, leaving the worst of their brethren and replicants on earth - people of bioengineering origin, who after a long ban were again released.
The tension between the first and the last is constantly increasing and threatens to splash into something very serious. The only deterrent is the so-called running on the blade - the police, destroying the old models of banned replicants and not allowing them to violate the wobbly world.
Continuing his cult creation, Scott refused to shoot, but took the place of executive producer. The director's chair was entrusted to the Canadian Denis Villeneuve, who already managed to get two nominations for the Oscar, including for the rather successful Oscar-winning "Arrival" at the box office. The operator in a couple of Villeneuve was also chosen not pass-through - on the account of Roger Dickins "Big Lebowski", "Escape from Shoushenk" and 13 nominations for the film academy award. Add to this the writers of Hampton Fancher (the first "Runner") and Michael Green ("Logan" and a fresh adaptation of "American Gods").

Q: Xcode. Question about syntax error checking Xcode looked at this line and did not complain. Project built, code crashed at runtime.
NSString *randomName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@, %@, %@",
                         [randomAjectiveList objectAtIndex:ajectiveIndex],
                         [randomNounList objectAtIndex:nounIndex]];

Naturally, come to think about it, i have one too many "%@" in place, one more then actual arguments. Correct code should look as follows
NSString *randomName = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@, %@",
                        [randomAjectiveList objectAtIndex:ajectiveIndex],
                        [randomNounList objectAtIndex:nounIndex]];

I ask you though ... why didn't Xcode complain? Seems like such an obvious thing to do with param counters. Shouldn't this be checked at compile time? Is it specific to "%@", perhaps?
Please advise.

A: Based on a quick check, you're 100% right that this isn't checked at compile time, seemingly even by the static analyser. Conversely, NSLog is checked. So on my machine, with XCode 4.0.2, the following:
[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d %@ %@"];
NSLog(@"%d %@ %@");

Produces a warning on the NSLog of "More '%' conversions than data arguments" but fails to comment on the NSString.
So, the difference could be fixed function calls versus dynamic calls. The compiler can't actually be completely certain where the NSString call will go because it's possible you'll have declared a category or used the low-level runtime to adjust the NSString selector table at runtime.
However, especially given the problems you'll almost immediately encounter if you start modifying the behaviour of the Foundation classes, like you I'd have expected at least a warning.

Supernatural: Into the Mystic
by Billie Doux
"Fingers crossed it's zombies, and we can get our Walking Dead on."
You know what I don't usually say after watching Supernatural? What a lovely episode.
So... what a lovely episode. Yes, it was a typical monster of the week, but it had an interesting narrative twist. As in, can you believe they introduced two cool female characters, and both of them lived?
I really enjoyed Dee Wallace's performance as Mildred. When you have a much older woman hitting on a young man, it's usually played for laughs or groans or both, like Gert constantly groping Sam in "Red Sky at Morning." Here, Mildred's verbal passes at Dean were gently folded into a more serious ongoing discussion between the brothers about their chances of growing old and retiring themselves some day. And how about how Dean responded to Mildred? He wasn't offended or put off at all. He was flattered, and even possibly interested. Of course, Mildred may have been seventy-ish but she was also beautiful and a lot of fun. I loved the little Dean/Mildred moment in front of the (metaphorical) sunset where she told him to follow his heart.
It was also nice to see Sam connect with Eileen Leahy, another legacy Men of Letters hunter tracking the banshee in order to avenge her parents. And how cool was it that she was deaf? And that she and Mildred managed to defeat the banshee and save Dean and Sam, not to mention (and I can't help emphasizing this point) survive the episode? Like Sam, Eileen decided on the hunting life instead of going to law school. I hope they bring her back and not kill her off a second time.
Although the banshee wasn't anything special to write home about in the vast and bizarre realm of Supernatural monsters (I did like her wriggling Medusa-like hair), Dean and Sam did make some emotional progress. They had a heart to heart while digging a grave, and Sam finally told Dean about how guilty he felt for leaving Dean in Purgatory.
But Dean did not tell Sam about his connection to Amara. He told Casifer, who dropped by the bunker to do some Amara research. (Which gave us Misha Collins doing Lucifer doing Castiel, of course.) The banshee was supposedly going after the most vulnerable, but she went after Dean instead of Mildred. And Mildred got the feeling that Dean was pining for someone. What does this mean, that Dean is vulnerable? Is he just longing for Amara to dump some bliss on him, or is it more serious than that?
At least Dean noticed that something was "off" about Castiel. Was it just that he was hanging out at the bunker without his trench coat on?
— J and J are both exceptionally gorgeous and it's rarely mentioned, so I like it when it's mentioned. Mildred said the boys were too cute to be FBI agents. Has she ever seen The X-Files?
— Enjoyed the Golden Girls discussion. Dean liked Blanche and Sam liked Sophia.
— The opener with the baby was probably intended to remind us of Amara.
— The collective wisdom is referring to Lucifer/Castiel as "Casifer," so I went with that. But frankly, I like Lustiel better. Or Luci-Cas.
— Shoshannah Stern (Eileen) is probably best known for Weeds and Jericho. Dee Wallace (Mildred) has been acting forever but is probably best known for E.T.
— This week: Oak Park in or near Lebanon, Kansas, and a flashback to thirty years ago in County Cork, Ireland. Dean and Sam were agents Osbourne and Butler.
— Did we get more old music than we usually do? "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow," "Wonderful, Wonderful," "Prison Grove" and a reference to "Walking After Midnight." And "Into the Mystic" is a song by Van Morrison. (Lyrics here.)
Casifer: "I'm out of that awful, awful Cage and I'm here to save you all. Lucifer ex machina."
Arthur: "My wife left me. Via text, if you can believe it. A whole series of emojis."
Dean: "Wow. What'd you do?"
Arthur: "Oh, I didn't stand for that. Fought fire with fire. Sent her the poop emoji."
Dean: "Well, that's one way to fly."
Sam: "Turns out Harold was stealing the other residents' Viagra."
Dean: "I know. It was a real dick move, huh?"
I so enjoyed Dean's smile when he came up with that one.
Dean: "So no retirement, huh?"
Sam: "Hey, you're the one who's always wanted to go out blaze of glory style, preferably while the Bon Jovi song is playing."
Dean: "I'm a candle in the wind."
Mildred: (signing) "I got dibs on the other guy. You can have the tall one. I'm not much of a mountain climber anymore."
Eileen: (signing) "You sure you don't want both?"
Does this mean the episode didn't pass the Bechdel test?
Dean: (watching the sunset) "It's not bad."
Mildred: "Not bad? Honey, it's almost as gorgeous as you are."
Dean: "Your hand is still on my knee."
Mildred: "I could move it up?"
Maybe not a classic, but an enjoyable MotW episode. Three out of four candles in the wind,
Billie Doux has been reviewing Supernatural for so long that Dean and Sam Winchester feel like old friends. Courageous, adventurous, gorgeous old friends.

I'm so in agreement with you here - it was a lovely episode. To me though Sam looked more vulnerable than Dean. Now, anyone in the ep looked more vunerable - the deaf girl with trust issues, the elderly lady (so cute, so lonely)... well,Luci in disguise didn't. On the contrary, he was so content with himself, probably thinking - wrongly- that he's totally safe which I'm sure he isn't.What did he look for in the bunker? The Book of Damned?
Profe Friday, January 29, 2016 at 10:11:00 PM EST
I hadn't heard Lustiel until today. Hmm... I think you put the better liked character's name first. Like Destiel and Samifer. So I guess it really depends on if you like Lucifer or Castiel better!
Billie Doux Friday, January 29, 2016 at 10:28:00 PM EST
Anonymous, I thought the boys said they struck out on lore about Amara in the MoL archives because she was pre-biblical -- am I remembering that correctly?
And Profe, I thought it was just what sounded better? :)
Profe Saturday, January 30, 2016 at 10:06:00 AM EST
Lol. Probably. But I read "Lustiel" as Lusty-el and catch a case of the giggles, ruining whatever I'm reading. But on support of your argument Misha Collins tweeted that he prefers Lustiel!
TheShadowKnows Saturday, January 30, 2016 at 11:28:00 AM EST
I didn't even think of E.T. when I saw Dee Wallace, but rather Cujo and The Howling. Shows what kind of movies I usually watch, I guess.
Anonymous Saturday, January 30, 2016 at 8:51:00 PM EST
When I saw the baby, I didn't think of Amara but rather of Sam, a helpless, adorable innocent in his crib. (Perhaps this is because I haven't been watching since 2006; I binge-watched on Netflix a year or so ago, so the whole show happened much more quickly for me!)
Anonymous Sunday, January 31, 2016 at 8:36:00 PM EST
My favorite is Luciel. I thought the Banshee was really well done. Robbie Thompson loves to write strong women in his scripts. I hope we see Mildred (who does have a ghost problem) and Eileen (as a descendant of a MOL's and a hunter she needs to explore the Bunker) in future episodes. They were awesome.
The story was "lovely" wasn't it?
Juliette Friday, February 5, 2016 at 5:12:00 PM EST
I would definitely go for Casifer over Lust-iel - there was enough stuff referring to Amara that could be wilfully otherwise interpreted in this episode as it was!
Patrick Tuesday, September 13, 2016 at 12:41:00 PM EDT
Finally catching up before the new season starts, and I'd have to agree that this was a "lovely" episode. No long-beloved characters died, nothing was terribly gruesome, and we met a couple of ladies who would be fun to have back sometime. I'd especially like to have Eileen back someday. It's always nice to see Shoshannah Stern on my screen, and as a MoL Legacy, she does deserve a tour of the bunker. I think the only possible complication to that would be, once she knows about it, you either have her use it as a base of operations too(it'd be what Dean would call a "dick move" not to let her use it like they do), or come up with a reason why she wouldn't want to. Dee Wallace is always a hoot, even if I can't help thinking of E.T. anytime I see her. :) It'd be a little trickier to justify a second appearance from her, though.
Misha Collins really does do a great Mark Pellegrino impression, doesn't he? :)


The authorities in Nicosia, Cyprus hired private rubbish removal firms to clean the garbage after a strike of the workers which has lasted for 6 weeks.
Five companies were hired and started cleaning the north part of the city yesterday. The payment for the services will be provided by the "interior ministry" and the Nicosia "district office" in order the rubbish to be removed as soon as possible.
The reason for the situation is the strike of the Turkish Cypriot Nicosia workers. They have refused to collect the junk for 6 weeks because the major blocked the staff's payments.
The council of ministers did their best to force the major give their payments but unsuccessfully. So they said they are going to cover the salaries but to see the rubbish removal done and to get rid of the huge piles of junk.
The interior minister of Cyprus, Nazim Cavusoglu said that the private companies are going to work 24 hours if they have to so to return the good look of the city. He also stated that the public's health is the most important issue and the ministers were forced to act immediately.

Q: Clear canvas drawing: Jetpack Compose Once the drawing is done on canvas as follows:
@Composable
fun DrawFigures(count: Int){
    val radius = 200f
    val animateFloat = remember { Animatable(0f) }
    if(count == 1)
        LaunchedEffect(animateFloat) {
            animateFloat.animateTo(
                targetValue = 1f,
                animationSpec = tween(durationMillis = 3000, easing = LinearEasing))
        }

   Canvas(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()){
       drawArc(
           color = Color.Black,
           startAngle = 0f,
           sweepAngle = 360f * animateFloat.value,
           useCenter = false,
           topLeft = Offset(size.width / 4, size.height / 4),
           size = Size(radius * 2 ,
               radius * 2),
           style = Stroke(2.0f))

    //Other drawings
    drawLine(..)
    drawLine(..)
   }
}

This animates circle drawing. But after recomposition no matter what the count value is, the circle is always shown. How can we clear canvas or is there any other way we can achieve this animation based on the value of count?
Edit: There are other drawings which need to be drawn and this composable is called and recompositions are done based on the count value. It is a game and when user clicks to play again, count value will be equal to zero.

A: Use the state hoisting technique if you want to clear the Canvas element.
@Composable
fun DrawFigures(count: Int){
    val radius = 200f
    val animateFloat = remember { Animatable(0f) }
    ...
    if(animateFloat.isRunning){ // The Canvas will disappear if the Animator is completed. Also, it won't appear when the Animator hasn't started yet
        Canvas(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()){
            ...
        }
    }
}

The result here:

I want this article to serve as a guide to better posture. We could say it's a posture corrector in the form of an article.
Look around the room. Do you have at least one other person with you? If not, imagine that you do. Maybe you're at school, work, at the gym, or in a coffee shop. Regardless of where you are, look at who is with you. How are they presenting themselves? What is their mood? What are they emoting? Look at their posture.
After answering those questions, assess yourself. What are the chances you'd ap-proach someone who gives off that vibe? Would you hire them for a job, ask them out on a date, or strike up a conversation with them?
Can you feel the tension in your body? If you can feel it, others can see it. Your posture is your first and, in some cases, the last impression you leave with people. To judge is human, even it feels wrong, but everyone judges others.
If you're slouching with slumped shoulders, an arched back, and a scowl on your face, the perception is you're tired, irritated, and quite possibly less confident and weak. Let's not mince words. One shouldn't change who they are for other people, but if you want better opportunities in life, your body language (posture) should be addressed.
1. Make the commitment. Acknowledge and accept that you need to tweak a few things.
2. Take it slow. Don't try an all or nothing approach. To create a change, you need consistent effort.
3. Know what's right for you. Listen to your instincts. If it doesn't feel right, don't do it.
4. Know when to ask for help. Sometimes help is necessary.
– A posture brace is a quick, relatively easy fix if you find practicing on your own too difficult. You can wear a brace under your clothes. It cinches around your shoulders and abdomen to secure your posture. Over time, it will tighten the muscles and train your brain to create the habit.
– Slow, deep breaths will automatically cause your back, neck, muscles to lengthen as you draw in for air. This can be a quick fix for your posture, if you keep the stance. Try to hold your breath for longer periods of time.
– The benefits are stretching are endless and excellent ways to lengthen your spine and improve your posture.
A vital part of living a long, healthy, and happy life is making certain your body is as healthy as possible. Eat right. Sleep right. Don't overstimulate your brain, but also, don't let it go stagnant. Challenge your body and mind. Stay active and try to maintain a healthy posture.

Larry and I want to thank Tribune reporter Rick Pearson for spending so much time with us today. The problem of having Rick on the show is I just want to sit back and listen to his insights and that makes me forget that I actually have to talk.
We talked about the new governor, we talked about the midterm elections, we talked about the impending Chicago mayoral race. And while we're at it, we want to thank Tim Elenz and Bob for calling in with some cogent questions.

In 2016 a set of scrapbooks owned by famous Half-And-Half, Anna-John Budd (William Henry Muldoon, also known as Hal and/or Harold) surfaced. Sadly, the seller decided to break up the scrapbooks, removing the photos, and piecing out the collection over a month or so on eBay. Fortunately, we were able to secure a large portion of the collection through on-line bidding, and direct sale of the bulk of the photos.

Landry's Momentum Growing: Landry Picks Up Even More GOP; Conservative Support As They Unite Behind Him.
from a release by Jeff Landry's campaign…
Jeff Landry, the leading candidate for Louisiana's 3rd Congressional District, has earned the endorsements of two more Parish GOP Committees within the 3rd Congressional District and the endorsement of one of the largest, leading conservative woman's groups in the nation.
Both Plaquemines and St. Bernard Parish GOP Committees have now joined a majority of Parish Committees in uniting behind Jeff Landry. In addition, the well-respected national conservative organization, Concerned Women PAC, has given its endorsement to Landry as well. "It is an honor to have the support of the local GOP organizations and Concerned Women of America," said Landry.
After finishing with nearly 50% of the vote in the first closed party primary, nine Parish GOP Committees jointly endorsed Landry, in a display of unity. Now, with Plaquemines and St. Bernard joining the other committees, it is clear that Republicans and conservatives are unified behind Landry's candidacy. "Jeff is the right choice for Louisiana," said Penny Nance, CEO of Concerned Women PAC.
The Parish GOP Committees that endorsed previously are: Ascension, Assumption, Iberia, Lafourche, St. Charles, St. James, St. John, St. Mary, St. Martin. Concerned Women PAC endorsement followed the endorsements of other national conservative organizations such as American Conservative Union, Conservatives of America, Family Research Council Action PAC, Catholic Families USA, Catholic Advocate. And in the biggest display of unified support for Landry, both the TEA Party of Louisiana and the Republican Party of Louisiana have endorsed Jeff Landry.
The Republican run-off will be held on October 2nd and early voting will begin this Saturday, September 18th through the 25th.

Q: Redisplaying div in flex layout after display:none I have two aside divs (essentially two side bars) which must be hidden to enable a "fullscreen" of my central div main, I am using flexbox to assign proportions of the screen, however, upon redisplaying the elements as display : block, it completely ruins the original layout.
The code for hiding and displaying is below. I am using d3 for DOM manipulation.
function handlefullscreen(){
    if(d3.select("#fullscreen").attr("data-selected") == 1){
        d3.select("#fullscreen").attr("data-selected", 0);
        d3.selectAll(".aside")
            .style("display", "block")
            .transition()
            .ease(d3.easeCubic)
            .duration("250")
            .style("opacity", 1).on("end",
                redraw);
    } else{
        previousWidth = document.getElementById('left').offsetWidth;
        d3.select("#fullscreen").attr("data-selected", 1);
        d3.selectAll(".aside")
            .transition()
            .ease(d3.easeCubic)
            .duration("250")
            .style("opacity", 0)
            .on("end", function(){
                d3.select(this).style("display", "none");
                redraw();
            });
    }
}

Below is the CSS I am using for the flex elements:
     .wrapper {
         height: 100%;
         margin: 0 -10px;
         display: flex;
         flex-flow: row wrap;
         font-weight: bold;
         text-align: center;
     }

     .wrapper > * {
         padding: 0px;
     }

     .main {
         background: #ffffff;
     }

     .aside-1 {
         box-shadow:5px 1px 6px #4E565E;
         background: #d8d8d8;
         z-index: 1;
     }

     .aside-2 {
         margin: 0 0px;
         box-shadow:-5px 1px 6px #4E565E;
         background: #d8d8d8;
     }

     @media all and (min-width: 600px) {
         .aside { flex: 1 20%; }
     }

     @media all and (min-width: 800px) {
         .main    { flex: 3 60%; }
         .aside-1 { order: 1; }
         .main    { order: 2; }
         .aside-2 { order: 3; }
     }

A: You should change the display block to display flex.
d3.selectAll(".aside")
        .style("display", "flex")
        .... // rest of the code

Remember that flex is another mode for the display property.
Hope this helps

The intercondylar fossa of femur (intercondyloid fossa of femur, intercondylar notch of femur) is a deep notch between the rear surfaces of the medial and lateral epicondyle of the femur, two protrusions on the distal end of the femur (thigh bone) that joins the knee. On the front of the femur, the condyles are but much less prominent and are separated from one another by a smooth shallow articular depression called the patellar surface because it articulates with the posterior surface of the patella (kneecap).

The intercondylar fossa of femur and/or the patellar surface may also be referred to as the patellar groove, patellar sulcus, patellofemoral groove, femoropatellar groove, femoral groove, femoral sulcus, trochlear groove of femur, trochlear sulcus of femur, trochlear surface of femur, or trochlea of femur.

On a lateral radiograph, it is evident as Blumensaat's line.

Shopify supports most of the popular payment processors and is extremely reliable. In addition, there are hundreds of applications available via their app store that further extend the platforms capabilities.
Sign up through the link below to receive your 14-DAY FREE TRIAL for Shopify. All you need to do is simply fill out your email address to get started.
If you do not feel comfortable switching platforms on your own, you can find contractors online on sites like Upwork.
Now that you have been up and running for a few years, it is time to put a solid branding strategy into play. If you are like most businesses a lot has changed since you originally launched your store. Does your original branding match your business today?
You are going to want to make sure that all of your branding looks great. This includes all of your product images. If you do not have high quality images for each of your products you are going to want to start preparing to source new images.
Remember the old saying, a picture is worth a thousand words. This is even more true for e-commerce. People remember up to 80 percent of what they see, but only 20 percent of what they read. Make sure that your product images and overall branding help people remember your new e-commerce store.
Do not make a massive project out of updating or upgrading your branding. Take it one step at a time. If you got a bit lazy with your product images, take time to update your process for taking new product images. Then go back into your existing inventory and start updating existing products.
You should also take small steps to update your branding. Updating your website and logo all in one shot may be too large of a project to undertake while also running your business day to day. Break out the project into smaller chunks. Start with updating your logo. Swap it out on your existing site. If you are happy with it, then move on to redesigning portions of your website.
Search Engine Optimization is always a moving target. Google recently updated their search results to effectively penalize sites that are not mobile optimized, it was an event the mainstream press called mobilegeddon.
If your e-commerce site is not mobile optimized you are going to miss out on the ever growing pool of users shopping online from their mobile devices. You do not need a separate mobile optimized site like you might have needed back three or four years ago.
You are looking for a responsive design. Simply stated, the design responds to the type of device you are using when on the site. One of the great benefits of using a larger e-commerce platform like I recommended in step 1, is that they offer responsive templates that you can customize to match your branding.
This is also a good time to check out all of your product descriptions and make sure they are unique. Copying and pasting product descriptions from manufacturers is a big no no. You want to make sure that all of your product descriptions are unique. You can use tools such as copyscape to check the uniqueness of your descriptions.
You also want to ensure that all of your product page titles and meta descriptions are in place and effectively communicate the product. Your page title and meta descriptions show up in search results, make sure they are up to date and entice potential buyers to click through to your site.
While an email list of 100,000 may sound like a huge list, if none of the individuals on the list are engaged the list size becomes much less impressive. How often are you engaging with your customers? If the answer is 'I'm not sure' or 'once a month', it is not enough.
A great strategy for increasing customer engagement is the use of surveys. Email your customers with a survey asking them questions about their experiences with the site. Use a service like Survey Monkey. The feedback you receive will be invaluable.
You can also use tools to survey all of your website visitors on site.
You should also engage with customers and potential customers on social media. While it may be more difficult to survey on social networks, you should still attempt to better understand your audience as soon as possible.
A great tool for testing the engagement of users on social media is a contest or giveaway. Remember to keep it simple and on topic. If you are selling widgets on your site, you do not want to offer a free iPad for entering the giveaway. Offer a widget or something that customers of your store would show an interest in. You want an engaged audience, not just someone looking to score a free iPad and then drop off of your list.
Now it is time to take all of the feedback you received and start making changes. Try to address any low hanging fruit first. Potential customers might be worried because you do not have a phone number listed on your site. Maybe existing customers have been confused with a shipping policy.
Ignore any feedback based upon pricing or requesting discounts. You can make those changes at any time. Look specifically for feedback on your product or the ordering process.
How has your e-commerce site been attracting customers? If the majority of customers are attracted from paid traffic sources it is time to audit the existing advertising campaigns.
If Google AdWords are working, dig into the relevant search terms and make sure that you are not missing out on any big opportunities. Google's keyword planning tool in Adwords is a great resource and may unearth a few keywords or areas that you are not taking advantage of.
Keep in mind that if you are not tweaking your campaigns frequently you are most likely wasting money. You will benefit by updating any keywords or campaigns that are not performing well and increasing spend on those campaigns that are working well. Online consumer habits change quickly. Constantly monitor your campaigns.
Not advertising yet? It is time to consider your first campaign, here is a quick article on our first e-commerce advertising campaign. Do not make the same mistakes I did when setting up advertising campaigns for my wife's online store.
The key to taking your e-commerce business to the next level is focusing on aspects of your business that have been working and improving areas that are not. It sounds simple, but how many times in the past few months have you sat down and thought about any of the items mentioned above?
It is easy to get caught up in the day to day minutia of running your online store. I have repeatedly made this mistake. Take a few hours per week to think about strategy. Create a recurring event in your calendar to ensure that you sit down and think about taking your e-commerce store to the next level.
Shopify trial – check! I'm going to try it out and see if its the right platform for me. Thanks for the advice Robert.

Lyra's Entangled with Bears. Oh, My!: "The Golden Compass" and "Noelle"
I would love to give an account of how the little kids in the audience reacted to Chris Weitz's The Golden Compass, but as school was in session during the Friday-afternoon screening I attended, there wasn't a single kid to be found. And I'd give you an account of how the adults reacted, but in all honesty, I was too busy trying not to fall asleep to notice.
Schlock Appeal: "Snakes on a Plane," "Step Up," "Little Miss Sunshine," and "Pulse"
Incessant buildup for a potential Hollywood blockbuster is nothing new, of course. But in the case of Snakes on a Plane, it was the nature of the buildup that proved fascinating; everything hyped about this cheesy scare flick - the hysterically candid title, the presence of Samuel L. Jackson in bellowing motherf---er mode, the re-tooling to secure an R rating from its original PG-13 - seemed to promise, "This movie is gonna suck, and you're gonna love it." Offhand, I can't think of another movie that was so aggressively - one might say honestly - marketed as the schlock it was almost certain to be. By the time the movie opened last Friday, the anticipation among connoisseurs of cinematic crap had reached such a fever pitch that nothing less than the Best Bad Movie of All Time would do.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Snakes on a Plane isn't the best bad movie of all time. But it'll still do.

Home » Online Behavior Analysis Degrees » What is Behavior Analysis?
What is a Master of Applied Behavior Analysis?
Acquiring a master's degree in applied behavior analysis prepares you to make a positive difference in the lives of people with behavioral and psychological disorders. Though ABA is most widely used in treating and supporting children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, the field offers a variety of career options for individuals with a Master's of Applied Behavior Analysis. Check out our careers page to learn more about what you can do with this degree.
According to the Behavior Analyst Certification Board's (BACB) national workforce report, the demand for behavior analysts more than doubled between 2012 and 2014. Because applied behavior analysis has shown to be an effective therapy for children and young adults diagnosed with autism, it's probably not a coincidence that the growing demand for behavior analysts in recent years has coincided with an increase in the prevalence of children identified with autism spectrum disorder.
There are of course other reasons to study behavior analysis. Individuals who complete a Master of Applied Behavior Analysis degree program come away with a broad set of skills that can be applied to encouraging positive behavioral changes and improving one's quality of life. And thanks to online applied behavior analysis graduate programs, you can earn this impactful master's degree without putting your life on hold to go back to school.
Through coursework and supervised practical experiences, students enrolled in graduate-level applied behavior analysis programs are taught how to affect positive behavior change in a variety of populations.
Below is a sample of a partial ABA course sequence from our partner Simmons College. BehaviorAnalysis@Simmons offers a practice-based curriculum focused on contemporary research and the full range of applications of behavior analytic principles.
Introduction to Applied Behavior Analysis The focus of this class is on the fundamental underpinnings of applied behavior analysis, including behavioral vocabulary, definitions and principles (e.g., reinforcement, stimulus control and motivation).
Introduction to Single Subject Research Designs This course introduces students to various types of single-subject research designs. Types of measurement protocols, ethical issues, data collection and visual display are discussed in relation to each research design. Students will design, present and defend a hypothetical study.
Behavioral Assessment This course prepares students to conduct a functional behavioral assessment. By the end of the course, students should be able to plan effective clinical and educational interventions using a continuum of assessment methods.
Methodologies for Behavior Change I Students enrolled in this course are exposed to basic procedures and protocols to accelerate and decelerate behavior changes. Topics presented in this course include reinforcement, contingency contracting, rule-governed behavior, differential reinforcement, shaping and generalization.
Ethics and Legal Issues This course was designed to provide students with an overview of the Behavior Analyst Certification Board's Professional and Ethical Compliance Code for Behavior Analysts. Students will also become familiar with federal and state legal regulations and policies specific to behavior management.
Methodologies for Behavior Change II This course builds on the topics, procedures and protocols introduced in Methodologies for Behavior Change I. Students in this course will be exposed to innovative behavioral instructional protocols such as precision teaching, PSI, direct instruction, stimulus equivalence and errorless instruction.
Note:This is a sample of a partial ABA course sequence from our partnerSimmons College. The sample contains general guidelines; students' actual schedules in Simmons College's BehaviorAnalysis@Simmonsprogram may vary.

Q: Replacing disk while retaining osd id In a ceph cluster, how do we replace failed disks while keeping the osd id(s)?
Here are the steps followed (unsuccessful):
# 1 destroy the failed osd(s)
for i in 38 41 44 47; do ceph osd destroy $i --yes-i-really-mean-it; done
# 2 create the new ones that take the previous osd ids
ceph orch apply osd -i replace.yaml
# Scheduled osd.ceph_osd_ssd update...

The replace.yaml:
service_type: osd
service_id: ceph_osd_ssd  # "ceph_osd_hdd" for hdd
placement:
  hosts:
    - storage01
data_devices:
  paths:
    - /dev/sdz
    - /dev/sdaa
    - /dev/sdab
    - /dev/sdac
osd_id_claims:
   storage01: ['38', '41', '44', '47']

But nothing happens, the osd id still show as destroyed and devices without osd id(s).
# ceph -s
  cluster:
    id:     db2b7dd0-1e3b-11eb-be3b-40a6b721faf4

Watch my headphones fall off 3/4 of the way through my solo.
You can get the album and/or DVD here.
Killer solo!! I like the interaction between you and the drummer! Awesome tune (15/4!?! 🙂 ! Do you play on the whole album, "We Like It Here"? I hope you keep jammin' with Snarky Puppy! Greetings from Minnesota!
Thanks, Mike. Yes, I'm on the whole album.
Amazing solo! You nail everything that comes your way.
I thought I heard the mauve scale in there too….. Or maybe I'm color deaf!
Everyone knows you can't use blue scales with red headphones Bob 😉 Too explosive. No wonder the head phones flew off.
Going to use this in my classroom sometime to talk about improv in contemporary music. Great stuff!
Speaking of Red Headphones, what are they? I'm looking for some really nice studio ones for myself.
They're made by Audio-Technica. They donated them to SP for the session. And we got to keep 'em! They're nice enough. Perhaps bass-heavy (trying to compete w/Beats, I suppose). I still like my Sony MDR-7506s.
Wow!. You made my day! Couldn't keep from smiling as I listened to your stunning solo.
This entire track is sooo killin. I would like to transcribe your solo but I'm having a hard time deciding how to break up the 15. Ideally I would like to write it the way you were thinking of it. 2 ways are possible- either 7 + 8 or 6 + 4 + 5…. Or maybe I am just thinking too much? You never cease to amaze with your ability to be lyrical in odd time signatures. Thanks for the music!
It's actually much simpler: it's a 5-bar phrase in 3/4. The key is noticing how the bass part outlines the 1-5-1 of each chord in a couple ways.
Nice. I was planning on putting the bass part on there as well to show how well what your playing compliments the rhythm of the bass line. 3/4 it is- Thanks man!
This song is such a Trip!
Wow Such an extroidanary solo Bob i have listened to this song so many times! I have an important question, I know allot of people transcribe solos and i have seen from the research that i have attempted that they have some of your solos transcribed so i was wondering if your solo from this one was transcribed as well and if it is could you inform me on how to get it i would love to learn it. I have been learning a lot of trancripted solos from books like Charlie Parkers Omni Books and i would love for this solo to be one of my items that I can practice.
I have a question about the horn line at 2:18. It *strongly* reminds me of a horn line I've heard in another piece of music but I'm wracking my brains trying to find it. Maybe a David Bowie tune? Is it just a coincidence, or was this line riffing on a well known horn line from another piece.
Hmm. Just relistened. Not sure. If you find out let me know.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge review
The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is the more expensive, more curvaceous and more intriguing version of the company's latest flagship phone, announced back at Mobile World Congress in March. It's evidence of Samsung pushing itself in terms of engineering, but can its visually arresting design justify its monstrous price tag?
By Katie Collins
Unique design; Supreme performance; Stunning screen; Excellent camera
Monstrously huge price tag; Lack of functionality down the edges; Unimpressive battery life
Design and screen
Samsung totally went back to the drawing back when it designed the Galaxy S6 Edge. Gone is the plastic, gone is the "premium feel", and in its place is proper industrial design with clever engineering and genuinely premium materials. And let's not forget those edges.
First spotted on the Galaxy Note Edge last September, Samsung's curved screen and bendy glass is back. Whereas the Note only had one edge, which curved all the way round the side of the phone, the Edge has two and they are far more shallow. If you look at the phone side-on, you really only get a couple of millimetres of screen dipping down each side of the handset.
It's a very pretty illusion, but doesn't provide much screen to work with (more on the Edge's features below). It also doesn't make the phone particularly comfortable to hold. The S6 Edge has a completely flat back with a metal rim around it, and while this undoubtedly makes it lovely to look at -- particularly when it is sitting flat on a surface -- it's much harder to keep hold of than the S6. We'd almost go as far as to day it feels like you're holding it the wrong way round. Many phones such as the HTC One M9 have carefully curved backs that help them fit neatly into the palm; the S6 Edge feels topsy turvy in comparison.
If you think the S6 Edge is attractive as a static object, it really shines when the display is on. It's bright, sharp and clear thanks to the Quad HD 2,560x1,440-pixel resolution and it has that intense colour pop we've come to associate with Samsung's Super AMOLED screens. It packs in a stonking number of pixels -- 577 per inch -- which quite frankly is unnecessary given the capabilities of the human eye.
From Juul to Vype, the best vape pens and e-cigerettes tested
By Emily Reynolds and Daryl Baxter
The Edge's display does undeniably make photos and video look stunning, however. The curved edges also make images seem less boxed in by the phone's bezel and Samsung has done a stand-up job of ensuring they don't cause distortion.
Edge and features
The benefit of the edge when it first appeared on the Galaxy Note was tied into the complex software and features the phone boasts, designed to appeal to a certain class of power user. The same cannot be said of the edges on the S6.
Some of the edge functionality has been transplanted from the Note to the S6 Edge, but where it has, it doesn't really appear on the edges of the phone at all. If you didn't know to go digging through the settings menu for it you wouldn't even know it was there.
You can choose to activate scrolling tickers that show a frustratingly limited set of information, a night clock and little contact bubbles that can be used to gain quick access to your five favourite contacts.
Honor View 20 review: a mid-range phone masquerading as a flagship
By Robert Leedham
Activating these is needlessly fiddly. You can only drag in the contact bubbles from the sides if you are on the homescreen or lockscreen and swiping the side to see the ticker when your phone is off seems to be a process of trial and error that mostly results in error. You can also only choose to have one edge optimised for these features at a time, which does seem to negate the point in having two curved edges. At least it can be adapted for righties and lefties, we suppose.
Another feature of the Edge is that if it is facing down on a flat surface and one of your chosen five contacts call or text you, the edge panels will cast a light down upon the surface, and you should be able to tell who it is from the glowing colours. You can place your finger on the heart rate monitor to send a canned response. We honestly didn't find this to be particularly useful, but there may be situations where you find it is.
Samsung's fingerprint technology on the S6 and S6 Edge is much improved. It has gone from being unusable on the S5, to mostly usable. Rather than having to swipe your finger tip across it a very specific angle, you can now just place it on the home button. When it works as advertised, it springs to life much more quickly than the iPhone 6, but we found success rates to be much lower than on the iPhone, meaning that we had to enter a password to bypass the lockscreen more often that we'd have liked.
As for other features, there's simply not a whole lot to report. There is far less bloatware than we're used to from Samsung phones, and while it can't be deleted, it can be disabled and hidden from view.
Samsung eschewed Qualcomm chipsets for its 2015 flagships and to ensure its smartphones are as powerful each phone has an octacore processor. Four cores are clocked at 2.1GHz, and four at 1.5Ghz. Unsurprisingly both phones whizz through games with the greatest of ease and jump when you tell them too. Given how sensitive they are, they also sometimes jump when you haven't told them too, which can be a tad frustrating; we found that the phone can quite easily get up to mischief in your bag or pocket.
Microsoft Surface Headphones review: superb, but not stylish
By Simon Lucas
Despite having exactly the same internal components, the S6 Edge outperformed the S6 when we ran Antutu Benchmarking tests. The Edge scored an average of 70,638, whereas the S6 scored 52,270. It's hard to account for the disparity between the two. It's important to remember that benchmarking is just one measure of a phone's performance -- and not a perfect one. Both are some of the best we've seen, along with the the HTC One M9, which scored 58,833. When using the phones in tandem, there was no noticeable difference between the two.
Double click the home button and the camera will jump into action startlingly quickly. A 16-megapixel camera on the front and 5-megapixel snapper on the rear and are complemented by a well thought-out menu of modes, including a particularly nifty beauty mode for selfies. It smoothed out blemishes and drew attention to the eyes, without making the face look unnaturally doll like, as some beauty modes tend to do. Selective focus was also extremely useful, especially for macro shots.
Gallery: Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge review
Samsung is getting ever closer to giving Apple a proper run for its money in the camera department. In broad daylight, the S6 and S6 Edge have the best camera out there. It is capable of producing some stunning, well-balanced shots, but if the conditions aren't perfect, we find that the picture quality begins to degrade quite quickly as light conditions change, or as you take advantage of the digital zoom.

This was a problem we experienced with the S5 too, and while there's no doubt there have been improvements, it's not something Samsung has managed to stamp out completely. While colours remain extremely accurate, it's the noise in the photos that can start to be troublesome if you're not careful.
Even though the S6 is bigger than the S6 Edge, it only has a 2,550mAh battery compared to the Edge's 2,600mAh battery. The difference between them when it comes to performance however is negligible.
Battery life on the Galaxy S6 Edge is perhaps our main source of disappointment with the phone. While the handset retains its charge well in standby mode, it doesn't fare nearly so well when in use. Given the incredible demands that its screen will be putting on the battery, this isn't all that surprising, but could be a concern for power users who will struggle to get a full day out of it.
The good news is that you can charge the S6 and the S6 Edge pleasingly quickly -- presuming you are using the bundled charger. Even though Samsung had claimed that its new flagships reach fully juiced status faster than any phone in the industry, we were taken aback by how speedily the phone went from 0-100.
The only drawback is that you must use the official Samsung chargers; any rogue micro-USB cables will see the phone go from the fasted charging phone on the market to among the slowest. Wireless charging is also built in, meaning that if you have a fairly static desk job, it's not so stressful to maintain a charge, as you can keep a charging pad handy at all times.
Design is probably the most important factor to consider if you're thinking of buying the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge. It's those curved edges that make it stand out and that make it so mind-bogglingly expensive. Samsung has purposefully created an object of desire, in part to prove that it can. Like haute couture, it isn't necessarily the most practical or comfortable item to be in possession of even if does catch people's eyes everywhere you go.
If you want the best and most powerful Samsung phone around you certainly wouldn't be compromising if you went for the S6 instead of the S6 Edge. If you're an Android fiend who can't repress those magpie tendencies however, you will enjoy the attention that this stylish device attracts wherever it goes.
