"Cruise ships are designed for people to stay for a week or a month at the most. These people will be living here six months to a year."

Totally... I only use BeyondPod and Spotify so I wasn't aware it was mainstream now.

BeyondPod puts the main controls in the notification shade as well as the "album" art

As I get unwanted calls I add the number to my Android contacts under "Telemarketer" and have that contact sent directly to Google Voice voicemail. At Google Voice I have a stern message saying that my number is on the do not call list and that they should take me off the list. Not sure if the voicemail message works…

The power pack app is no longer available because the widgets and features are now part of the regular app. Update Astrid to get the features.

Despite it's shortcomings as a player the design and layout is spectacular. Especially when compared to the Spotify app which can only be described as a hot mess.

Lock Screen Widgets are only on Android 4.2+ (as mentioned) and adding a lock screen widget is not intuitive. From the lock screen swipe to the right.

Being a premium Evernote user with Android is just super frustrating. Every improvement and new feature for mobile goes to iOS first. It took over a year after the iOS app for Android to even get Hello and Food. We are still waiting on the Moleskine notebook to work in the Android app and I suspect we will be waiting…

To clarify: Your point is still valid but the tribe you are referring to most likely knew that there is an outside world and had probably moved deeper into the jungle to avoid it. They knew of us (albeit probably very little about us) and we knew of them (thanks to satellite photography and commercial settlers).…

Really great suggestions. When I was a kid (I think they call it a tween now) I was on medication that required a blood test every other week to make sure the levels were good. The first few times were scary but I quickly got over it. I no longer am nervous about needles and give blood regularly (condition and…

Jose Canseco was caught going 104mpg on the highway and he tried to blame it on the jet fuel he put in his Porsche: http://articles.latimes.com/1991-02-15/sports/sp-1121_1_florida-highway-patrol
