A Sneak Peek Into Huawei Ascend P6 Via Released Photo And A Teaser Video

Publicizing via the social networking site, the company posted an image of the smartphone on Facebook along with a statement by Richard Yu’s, CEO, Huawei. The statement read, “You know, after using the P6 more and more, I’ve begun to notice how nice the side keys were designed and how good it felt to press them. Their positioning along the edge felt just right and natural. They aren’t protruding out too much so you don’t have to worry about the wrong button being pushed when it’s in your pocket, nor are they too flat that they’re uncomfortable to feel....

A Star On The Run

Mexican prosecutors charge that Andrade–with help from Trevi–persuaded numerous parents to turn over their daughters. Then, they allege, he gained psychological control over the girls and forced them to have sex with him. Criminal complaints have been filed by Karina’s parents and by two women in Mexico City who describe themselves as victims. Last fall, Trevi denied any wrongdoing and dropped out of sight. Andrade, who hasn’t been seen in public since 1997, has never responded to the charges....

A Mafia Bloods Alliance

This week Perna, 38, and another high-ranking mobster, Michael Cetta, 41, were charged with racketeering, conspiracy to distribute heroin and a host of other charges stemming, in large part, from surprisingly candid wiretapped phone conversations they had with the Bloods leader. New Jersey authorities say it is unclear how Spears, 33, forged his relationship with the Lucchese family members. What is clear is that Spears and Perna talked at great length....

A Magical Rivalry

We laughed about it in the locker room afterward. But Larry was highly competitive, and he meant it. A few nights later he got on a roll, and sure enough, he didn’t stop. He went for 60 points. If you’ve never seen anybody score like that, you’re not sure it can be done. But he did it. I broke a 15-year-old record and it lasted maybe seven nights. Maybe Birdie was right....

A New Dinosaur Flouts The Rules

Most theories of dinosaur evolution say that carnivorous dinosaurs, the ancestors of today’s birds, got smaller as they became more bird-like. But the remains of a new species and genus of dinosaur, discovered in Inner Mongolia and announced at a press conference in Beijing this morning, throw a wrench into that idea. Gigantoraptor, as he has been named, is surprisingly bird-like in his skeleton, and probably had feathers. He lived in the Late Cretaceous about 70 million years ago, and an analysis of his skeleton puts him in the same family as the beaked, bird-like Oviraptor, say Xing Xu of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who led the discovery, and colleagues....

A New Script

Predictably, progress at the meeting was limited, yielding no confirmation from North Korea about a purported offer by Kim Jong Il to drop its missile program in exchange for satellite launches in another country. North Korean officials like Paek are rarely empowered to be more than functionaries who stick to their tightly worded scripts. Said one South Korean diplomat, “Their basic emotion is still fear.”

A Plan To Unite North South Korea One People Two Countries Two Systems One Market

“Our approach now should aim more at the ‘One people, two countries, two systems, and one market’ model,” South Korea Unification Minister Lee In-Young told the Seoul Shinmun newspaper in an interview published Thursday and featured on the official website of the government ministry. He likened the strategy to that which established the European Union, an organization with a common currency and largely open borders yet with individual sovereignty among its 27 members....

A Radical S Work Grows Old Not So Gracefully

Newman, who majored in philosophy at New York’s City College, was an impoverished self-proclaimed anarchist who kept failing the exam that would promote him from substitute art teacher in the public schools to a regular one. Consequently, his wife, Annalee, worked two jobs, while he dreamed up schemes like concocting a system for picking winners at the horse races and running for mayor as a write-in candidate. As an artist, Newman couldn’t bring himself to commit anything to an actual canvas until he was 40 years old....

A Rebellion With A Cause

It already has. Manila’s long-simmering struggle with both communist and Islamic rebels in the southern Philippines – chiefly Mindanao, the country’s second largest and poorest island – has boiled over again. For about 30 years, the government and its rural adversaries have been locked in a seemingly endless cycle of vicious fighting, ceasefires, inconclusive peace talks, followed by more fighting. Philippine President Joseph Estrada has lately cranked up the military pressure on the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), a major Philippine separatist group and old government enemy....

A Rod S Final Week With Yankees Creates Complicated Relationship With Joe Girardi

His last night as a Yankee, of course, because even with Rodriguez saying things after Friday’s game like, “It’s going to be hard to top that,” and, “I’m at peace,” the man who is four home runs away from 700 in his career continued to avoid giving direct answers to questions about whether this was the end of his baseball career.

A S Ace Will Miss 2014 Season

Parker was examined Monday in Gulf Breeze, Fla., by Dr. James Andrews, who repaired his elbow on Oct. 28, 2009, when Parker was with Arizona. Parker is to have surgery again on March 25. Parker had a 10.61 ERA in three spring training starts. He becomes the latest pitcher who needs a ligament replaced, joining Arizona's Patrick Corbin. Atlanta pitchers Kris Medlen and Brandon Beachy also were being examined by Andrews on Monday and might need season-ending elbow surgery....

A Senator S Uneasy Debut

Controversy has trailed Moseley-Braun since the latter stages of her campaign. The most damaging incidents all seem to involve her boyfriend and campaign manager, Kgosie Matthews. In an exuberant victory speech two months ago, Moseley-Braun dubbed Matthews her “knight in shining armor.” Many of her staffers, however, took a dimmer view of his autocratic and often arbitrary behavior. After the election, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that two women staffers had anonymously accused Matthews of sexual harassment during the campaign....

A Simple One Word Answer

Many of those in the business of women’s health said they were perplexed and concerned by that second result. And the researchers at the Alan Guttmacher Institute said it would take more work to explain the increase in abortions among the poor. But those working closely with actual patients said that one word goes a long way toward explaining both the good news and the bad. Contraception. It’s been the rallying cry of those who favor keeping abortion legal for years now....

It’s only been six weeks since M ‘c revealed his illness but the rumors have flown every which way, freezing out the truth, which is: he has no symptoms and is on AZT without side effects; his wife and unborn child are unaffected; he has been placed on the president’s commission on AIDS and he’s signed a book contract for a reported $5 million; he plans to keep his spot on the U....

A Marvel S Avengers Halloween Event Has Tons Of Potential

Thus far, the events in Marvel’s Avengers have been themed around Black Widow and Tachyon Anomalies. However, a holiday event has potential, as making content for real world occasions has worked out well for other games. Whether it be Overwatch or Animal Crossing: New Horizons, gamers seem to love logging into their favorite games to celebrate the holiday season. As such, Marvel’s Avengers should capitalize on this, and there is no better option for a seasonal event than Halloween....

More than 20 years ago, Miller’s son published a photo-rich biography, “The Lives of Lee Miller,” that created new interest in that almost-forgotten life. Since then, there have been many exhibitions of her work and more than half a dozen books. Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise optioned her story for a film, but their marriage wrapped before the project began. Now an expansive new show, “The Art of Lee Miller,” which originated in London, just opened at the Philadelphia Museum of Art (through April 27)....

A Month On From Election 5 Questions About Concession Transition And Inauguration

The chain of events after Election Day has far from followed the usual expected routine. Below, Newsweek looks at five questions surrounding concession, the transition and inauguration. Will Trump Make a Concession Speech? Well, that would require the president conceding. Trump has not done so despite multiple news networks assessing Biden as the winner with 306 Electoral College votes, surpassing the 270 majority needed to claim the presidency. The Trump campaign’s efforts to alter state outcomes have failed thus far....
