Verizon Sony Xperia Z2 Coming Next Quarter (Rumor)


 

 We have been hearing various rumors about when the Verizon Sony Xperia Z2 smartphone would launch, and now according to a recent report, the handset will launch in the middle of the next quarter.

The news comes from @evleaks, who has said that the reason that the Sony Xperia Z2 has not launched on Verizon as yet, is because the handset will come with LTE-Advanced.

This means that the Verizon Sony Xperia Z2 needs to go through a new certification an testing process, and this is the main reason that the handset is yet to land on the carrier, LTE-Advanced is designed to be faster than LTE.

The handset is expected to share the same specifications as the existing Xperia Z2, which will include a 5.2 inch full HD display that has a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels.

The Sony Xperia Z2 is powered by a quad core 2.3GHz Snapdragon 801 processor, the handset features 3GB of RAM and 16GB of included storage, this can be expanded further via a microSD card slot.

Other specifications on the Xperia Z2 include a 20.7 Sony Exmor RS rear facing camera that comes with a range of advanced features, plus a front facing 2.2 megapixel Sony Exmor R camera.

As soon as we get some information on exactly when the Sony Xperia Z2 will launch on Verizon Wireless, we will let you guys know.

some Specifications of The HTC One E9 and E9+ leaked


HTC One E9

Earlier today, we came across some leaked images of the purported HTC One E9 in action, giving us a glimpse of the design of the alleged handset. It’s not the only time we saw it making rounds on the internet, earlier this month, the same handset was spotted at Chinese regulatory authorities as well.

  • Recently, the popular Twitter leaker Upleaks revealed some interesting information about the upcoming handsets. It seems it’s not just the HTC One E9, but the Taiwanese OEM is also reportedly working on the HTC One E9+ with a model number A55 which we’ve seen in the past few leaks.

So it turns out the handset we’ve seen numerous times in the past few weeks is not the HTC One E9, but the bigger version of the dubbed as the One E9+. As per Upleaks, the HTC One E9 will boast a full-HD display and a 13MP main camera for photos and videos. As for the HTC One E9+, the alleged handset will come with a QHD display as well as a 20MP camera.

Previous leaks suggest the HTC One E9+ with model number A55 will feature a 5.5-inch display, but the exact screen size of HTC One E9 is still unknown. The handset is rumored to come with a MediaTek processor paired with 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage and Android 5.0 Lollipop with Sense 7 on top of it.

There’s no word from HTC about the existence of the handset, but judging by the number of leaks we’ve seen in the past few days, there’s a possibility that we may get to see it in the next few weeks. We’ll update you as soon as we get any other information about the handset.

Here Is why you Should drink water from a copper cup

The medicine of Ayurveda recommends drinking water stored in copper canisters, because it is believed that the copper has antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties. There have been medical studies that show the benefits of drinking water stored in copper pots.

One study done in 2012, found that storing
contaminated water in copper pots up to 16
hours at room temperature, reduces the
presence of harmful microbes. This has people believing that copper is the solution for the purification of drinking water, especially in developing countries.

There is a different study that showed that
copper surfaces in a hospitals killed 97% of the ICU bacteria that can cause infection, which resulted in a 40% reduction in infection rates.

Scientists at the University of Montreal
published a study in this month’s issue of the
Journal of Behavior Therapy and Experimental Psychiatry that suggests that perfectionism might be at the root of body-focused compulsive habits like nail-biting and hair-twisting. For the study, researchers worked with 48 participants, half of whom regularly engaged in these types of behaviors. The other participants,
who didn’t have these habits, acted as a control group. Continue reading What Biting your Nails Says About Your personality

South Africans perform first ‘successful’ penis transplant


image

The world’s first successful penis transplant
has been reported by a surgical team in South Africa.

The 21-year-old recipient, whose identify is
being protected, lost his penis in a botched
circumcision.

Doctors in Cape Town said the operation was a success and the patient was happy and healthy.

The team said there was extensive discussion
about whether the operation, which is not life- saving in the same way as a heart transplant, was ethical.

There have been attempts before, including one in China. Accounts suggested the operation went fine, but the penis was later rejected.

Penis replacement
The man was 18 and already sexually active
when he had the circumcision.
The procedure is part of the transition from
boyhood to adulthood in parts of South Africa.

ceremony in South Africa
The boy was left with just 1cm of his original
penis.

Doctors say South Africa has some of the
greatest need for penis transplants anywhere in the world.

Dozens, although some say hundreds, of boys
are maimed or die each year during traditional initiation ceremonies.

Long
Surgeons at Stellenbosch University and
Tygerberg Hospital performed a nine-hour
operation to attach a donated penis.
One of the surgeons, Andre Van der Merwe, who normally performs kidney transplants, told the BBC News website: “This is definitely much more difficult, the blood vessels are 1.5 mm wide. In
the kidney it can be 1 cm.”

The team used some of the techniques that had been developed to perform the first face
transplants in order to connect the tiny blood
vessels and nerves.

The operation took place on 11 December last year. Three months later doctors say the recovery has been rapid.

Full sensation has not returned and doctors
suggest this could take two years.
However, the man is able to pass urine, have an erection, orgasm and ejaculate.

Preparation
The procedure required a lot of preparation.
The team needed to be sure the patient was
aware of the risks of a life-time of
immunosuppressant drugs.

Also some patients cannot cope with a
transplant if they fail to recognise it as part of their body.

“Psychologically, we knew it would have a
massive effect on the ego,” said Dr Van der
Merwe.

It took “a hell of a lot of time” to get ethical
approval, he added.
One of the concerns is a heart transplant
balances the risk of the operation against a
certain death, but a penis transplant would not extend life span.

Dr Van der Merwe told the BBC: “You may say it doesn’t save their life, but many of these young men when they have penile amputations are ostracised, stigmatised and take their own life.

“If you don’t have a penis you are essentially
dead, if you give a penis back you can bring
them back to life.”
Further attempts on other patients are expected to take place in three months time.

Breastfeeding “linked to higher IQ”


image

A long-term study has pointed to a link
between breastfeeding and intelligence.
The research in Brazil traced nearly 3,500
babies, from all walks of life, and found those
who had been breastfed for longer went on to score higher on IQ tests as adults.

Experts say the results, while not conclusive,
appear to back current advice that babies
should be exclusively breastfed for six months.

But they say mothers should still have a choice about whether or not to do it.
Regarding the findings – published in The Lancet Global Health – they stress there are many different factors other than breastfeeding that could have an impact on intelligence, although the researchers did try to rule out the main confounders, such as mother’s education, family income and birth weight.
