Demis Roussos - FarAway (feat. Hasna)

Greek singer Demis Roussos dies aged 68

R.I.P.  DEMIS ROUSSOS... GOD BLESS... 

Greek singer Demis Roussos, who sold more than 60 million albums worldwide, has died aged 68, the Hygeia Hospital in Athens has confirmed to the BBC.

He was best known for his solo hits in the 1970s and 80s, including Forever and Ever, Goodbye and Quand je t'aime.

He was also a member of progressive rock group Aphrodite's Child.

Roussos was renowned for his off-screen role in Mike Leigh's 1977 TV play Abigail's party, having provided the party's soundtrack.

He had been in the private hospital with an undisclosed illness for some time.

His Aphrodite's Child bandmate Vangelis paid tribute in a statement that begins: "Demis my friend.

"I have just arrived in London and I've been told that you decide to take the long voyage, I'm shocked because I can't believe that this happened so soon.

"Nature gave you this magic voice of yours which made millions of people around the world very happy."

He added: "As for me, I keep those special memories that we share together those early days and I wish you to be happy wherever you are."

He signed off with the words: "Goodbye my friend goodbye. Love Vangelis."

Greek singer Nana Mouskouri paid tribute on French radio RTL: "He had a superb voice, he travelled in the world ... he loved what he was doing.

"He was an artist, a friend. I hope he is in a better world."

Finding fame

The singer was born Artemios Ventouris Roussos in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1946, to a Greek father and Egyptian mother of Italian origin.

He was raised there until his parents moved to Greece in the early 60s after losing their possessions during the Suez Crisis.

Roussos began his music career at 17, when he joined the a band called The Idols, where he met Vangelis.

Aphrodite's Child produced three albums including It's Five O'Clock and 666, and enjoyed huge success in Europe in the late 1960s, especially France.

Roussos went on to enjoy a successful solo career, topping the charts in several countries with Forever And Ever in 1973, before doing the same in the UK in 1976.

Memorably he was referred to in Mike Leigh's Abigail's Party, by the character played by Alison Steadman, who plays his record in an attempt to impress her guests - commenting that he "doesn't sound" fat.

Demis Roussos was still performing on stage in 2012

Roussos was photographed surrounded by awards for the UK sales of his albums, including gold discs for Happy To Be and My Only Fascination

Other solo hits include My Friend the Wind, My Reason, Someday Somewhere and Happy To Be On An Island In The Sun.

Roussos' fondness for kaftans saw him dubbed "the Kaftan King" and he often wore them for his performances on shows such as Top of the Pops.

He was also famous for his vocal adaptation of the score from the 1981 film Chariots of Fire, which had been composed by Vangelis.

In 1978, he decided to keep a lower profile and moved to Malibu Beach in the US - where he shed much of the weight that had seen him routinely mocked by comedians like Freddie Starr.

Famously, he was caught up in a plane hijacking when flight TWA 847 from Athens to Rome was hijacked by members of Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad in 1985.

He and his third wife were held at gunpoint for five days before they were released. Some of his fellow passengers endured 17 days in captivity.

The experience changed his life and afterwards he decided the best way he could help others and promote understanding in the world was by returning to music.

He released his album The Story of Demis Roussos not long after.

True Detective Season Two: How Big Is Justin Bieber's Penis?

A single question now plagues the minds of all Americans, weighing down our brains as we slump in our office chairs, then slump in our cars, then slump in our couches, and then slump into bed: how big is Justin Bieber's penis really?

The swaggy lil pop star and his cavalry of minders would have us believe that Justin Bieber has a huge dick.

Last week, Calvin Klein released photos of Bieber modeling their underwear for a new ad campaign. One memorable shot showed off the singer's protruding package in arresting profile. Shortly after the photos hit the Internet, a web site called Breathe Heavy posted what it claimed was the same image prior to re-touching. If that claim were accurate, it would mean that Calvin Klein (well, not him personally, although maybe) had stuffed Bieber's stocking nearly to bursting. Here are the two images side-by-side:

Bieber's team immediately insisted that Breathe Heavy's photo was fake, and requested the web site take it down. Breathe Heavy complied, originally replacing the photos with an editor's note, but eventually removing the entire post altogether. In that since-deleted note, Breathe Heavy's editor seems to accept Bieber's explanation at gunpoint.

Bieber denies the photo is real, and I respect that and will believe him.

The question, therefore, is: Are the claims of the Bieber camp correct, and the photo fake?

Or did Breathe Heavy have the real photo, and capitulate in the face of legal intimidation?

(It's easy to make a case that Breathe Heavy's photos are the real deal: We know that at least one photo was significantly retouched prior to publication, as Bieber's camp did not dispute an earlier TMZ story alleging that Calvin Klein sculpted Bieber's pecs, filled out his abs and bestowed him pubes in this ad from the campaign; furthermore, virtually every celebrity photoshoot in America gets touched up at some point. Why would Bieber's dick be a grand outlier?)

But in many ways this dispute is just a lead-in to an essential American question: What exactly is Bieber packing?

Let's be true detectives.

This is a screencap taken from a video of the Calvin Klein shoot that Bieber himself posted to Instagram. Here we have a direct, unaltered view of his package and can plainly see that it looks quite different than the massive knot he is sporting in the photo advertisement. Front-bulge will almost always look less impressive than side-bluge, granted, and this is a fine bulge, certainly, but one that seems far off of Calvin Klein's idealized Burmese python.

Last September, Bieber appeared onstage at the Fashion Rocks concert. For some reason he stripped down to his underwear, which produced a number of generally alarming photos such as this one.

There are a number of things we can glean from this photo. One is that Justin Bieber has muscles. Look at the strong boy! Another is that his happy trail does indeed appear to stop abruptly right about where it does in the pre-Photoshop version of the Calvin Klein shot in which a model gropes him. But because Bieber wore jet black briefs that reveal no hint of bulge, this photo doesn't help us understand how big his dick actually is.

For that, we must consult more candid shots.

In 2013, Bieber went to Hawaii and jumped off a cliff. After exiting the water, he was photographed walking on the beach, resulting in the image you see here:

This is perhaps the most revealing shot of Bieber's bulge in the wild. Does it look exceedingly large? I'd say not. In fact, it looks like any man's normal penis. Of course, it should be noted that it's unfair to judge a dick by what it looks like immediately after being submerged in the sea. However we can only work with the materials we have.

Next we will consult a Tumblr called Justin Bieber's Bulge, a blog "dedicated to Justin Bieber's glorious, wonderful bulge," which is not run by me. For a Tumblr devoted to one man's dick, it's a pretty boring blog, but there is one compelling photo.

Here is a fan shot of Justin Bieber in concert, his leather drop-crotch pants dropped well below his crotch. We can see a hint of bulge, and from this angle it does not look like Justin Bieber is trying to smuggle a butternut squash through airport security, as Calvin Klein might want us to believe.

That is evidence supporting the theory that Justin Bieber is adequately endowed. Arguing in favor of Justin Bieber's alleged big dick are two people: Tati Neves, a Brazilian model, and Bieber's trainer Patrick Nilsson. These two claim to have seen Bieber's flesh in the flesh, and if we're to believe them, Calvin Klein has staked its reputation on the right massive dong.

Neves claims to have slept with Bieber during his infamous Brazilian sex romp. Here is what she told a British tabloid about Bieber's D:

Speaking to The Sun, Brazilian model Tati Nevas said: "Take it from me, he's well endowed - and very good in bed."

Nilsson, meanwhile, was shuttled out to do damage control in the wake of the Calvin Klein Photoshop controversy. Here, according to Breathe Heavy, is his assessment:

And to make up it, here's a new quote from Justin's trainer Patrick Nilsson, who says JB is packing. "I can definitely confirm that he is a well-endowed guy. I sound weird saying that, but yes."

Indeed you do.

Two people claim to have personal connections with Justin Bieber's dick and claim it is large, but one is on Justin Bieber's payroll. While we will consider their opinions, the overwhelming visual evidence suggests that Justin Bieber's penis is perfectly average—large enough to adequately fill out a pair of briefs, but not so large that it could arouse envy and terror when plastered across sprawling billboards, or choke a cow, without enhancement.

In this case, it appears, Justin Bieber is the same as any man.

How To Recover Deleted Files From Your Android Phone

It has happened to all of us – at one point or other we all wanted to go back in time and change something. As most pop songs will make you believe “you can’t turn back time”, but when it comes to technology nothing is ever completely impossible.

If you’ve ever had a fight with a loved one, you may remember the urge that suddenly takes over and tells you to delete everything connected with that person: photos, videos, chat history.. And if you are reckless enough to act upon that feeling, you will probably regret it in a few minutes.

Or it does not have to be that dramatic – you can simply delete a nice photo or a fun video by accident, by pressing the wrong button at the wrong time or letting your phone toss in your handbag without blocking your keyboard.

Whatever the reasons might be, once you realize that something important is deleted – you will start desperately wanting it back.

So what do you do? Do not panic just yet! There may be a way to get those precious files back. But first, make sure that you:

• don’t save anything else onto your device before the recovery (or this information may be written over your deleted files)
• stay away from any updates (by turning off your Wi-Fi and other connections)

Now let’s get down to the recovery process. There are two approaches here and which one you choose depends on whether your device is rooted or not.

If your device is not rooted, the easiest way to recover data from your phone is by running a specialized programme on your PC. You will need to start by downloading this programme first and you will find a number of options available (like Android Data Recovery, Recuva, Coolmaster and others). Once you have the software installed, you will need to connect your phone to your PC via a USB cable or insert your phone’s SD card into the card reader on your PC.

With most of these programs you will have to specify the type of files you want to recover (jpg,. txt., mp3, etc). You will also be presented with folders from which data can be recovered. Follow the instructions and once you succeed in recovering the lost files, make sure to save them on your PC first and only then go on to transfer them to your Android device to avoid any complications, that may occur if you try to restore the files to their previous location.

If your device is rooted, the process will be a bit easier and you will not have to involve your PC. You will need to install an app like DiskDigger or Undelete on your rooted device,. These applications are made exactly the purpose of restoring deleted files and will do most of the work. So from here on now, the procedure gets pretty straightforward:

You will need to choose the location (phone memory or SD card) from which you hope to retrieve the files.

The application will them scan your chosen location for any information that can be retrieved.

Once the scan is complete, the app will show you the data that can be recovered in different folders: Music, Video, Pictures, Files, etc.)

You can then check the folders for the needed files and pick the ones you want restored.

Once you select the files to be retrieved they will be reappear in their previous location.

Ta-da! You have now achieved the impossible: you have traveled back in time and undone a mistake you’ve made. Now, if only life were that easy…

Quick And Easy Guide For Cleaning Your Smartphone

Your phone may look all squeaky clean and shiny to the naked eye, but you may be surprised (or rather disgusted) to learn that these small gadgets have been proven to shelter more bacteria than doorknobs, keyboards and – oh, the horror – toilet seats. However, you do not hold up a toilet seat to your ear or talk into it – that makes your mobile phone a powerful carrying case for seasonal flu and other infections.

Thus, giving your phone a regular cleaning is not only an aesthetic thing but a necessary hygienic precaution.

When it comes to cleaning any electronic gadgets, the keyword of the whole procedure should be – gentle. Your movements must be soft, careful and light – that is why it’s not recommended to indulge in the relaxing process of phone cleaning if you are running late or are not in a good mood. Other than that, the process is pretty much straightforward. All you need are the proper tools and the knowledge of the basic do’s and don’ts.

Here’s how you do it:

Let’s start with the screen and cover the don’ts first.

Don’t: It may be a natural instinct to use window-cleaning products on your screen (glass is glass, after all). But this is a very bad idea. Windex and other popular household chemicals contain ammonia – which may significantly damage your screen overtime. Additionally, some touchscreens (like that of iPhone, for instance) are covered with a special coating, that would be destroyed if a heavy chemical is applied.

Do: Use a special cleaner meant for electronics. If you a DIY kind of guy or girl you can prepare a solution of 60 percent water and 40 percent isopropyl alcohol.

Don’t: Never use any paper materials – towels, Kleenex, tissues – to clean our screen. Rough fibers can scratch the display.

Do: Use a microfiber cloth (the one that usually comes together with eyeglasses).

Don’t: Never spray the solution directly onto the screen. ip the microfiber cloth into the cleaning mixture and gently wipe down the screen.

Do: Instead, dip the microfiber cloth into the cleaning mixture and gently wipe down the screen.

Once your touchscreen is wiped clean, let’s get down to harder-to-reach areas, like earphone and charging slots. These crevices can easily gather dust, crumbs and other dirt.

• Use a Q-tip, dipped in the same solution, to gently clean the slots.
• Another way to do it is to get your hand on a can of compressed air and “air out” the areas in question.

For a more high-tech approach to cleaning, you could try a professional phone sanitizer, that uses UV light to get rid of all the hidden bacteria.

Using Airplane Mode: In the Air And On Land

We all know that our phones have airplane mode and we also know that quite logically, we should be using that mode when on board the plane. But what is it exactly that the airplane mode does and are there any alternative uses of this feature? That’s what we are here to find out.

In The Air

So what does enabling airplane mode actually change in your phone? First, it disables your cellular connection, meaning your phone will no longer be searching for connections with cell towers.

First, it disables your cellular connection, meaning your phone will no longer be searching for connections with cell towers.

By toggling on airplane mode you will also automatically disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. But the latter can be turned back on manually – as these days most airlines offer paid Internet on board the plane.

The question of whether it is really that necessary to switch to airplane mode or turn off your phones during take-off or landing has been brought up numerous times. The idea behind the ban is that whenever turned on, your phone will be trying to establish a connection with a cell tower, even when it means boosting the signal (as will be the case high up in the sky) and all this data transmission may get in the way of airplane’s navigation equipment. Surely, this does not mean that a turned on cell phone will cause a crash – but to stay on the safe side, airlines have always been careful about all sorts of interferences – and you can’t really blame them. On your side, having your phone turned on and in constant search of signal will eat away at you battery in vain – so you’re not missing out on anything.

On Land

One of the most popular alternative uses of airplane mode is battery saving. True, you will not be able to receive or make calls or send text messages – but if you are in an emergency and really need to make that battery last – a quick tap on the airplane mode will conserve your juices till you get your hands on the charger. Keeping your phone in airplane mode during charging itself will also speed up the process. So if you don’t have that much time left – you might choose to keep “flying” to get as much power as you can.

Personally, I found airplane mode a quick fix at a meeting, negotiation, discussion – or any situation that demands your undivided attention. This means you will get rid of all the ringing and buzzing with one simple move and will be able to concentrate.

On the same note, there may be times during the day when you just want to “disappear” – it may be an urgent work project, a trip to the spa or some quiet time with a book. Whatever it is – you deserve peace when you need it.

If you seem to have too many distractions coming from your phone – a quick switch to airplane mode can keep all of them out of the way with your phone still being on, and the ability to go back to the world whenever you want to.

When traveling internationally, and if you have roaming enabled, having your phone switched on can get expensive. Even if you do not initiate any calls yourself – people may be calling you, leaving voice messages and sending texts, completely unaware of the humongous bills you’ll have to face when you get back.

With all of the uses that airplane mode may have on land, it’s important to remember that it will prevent people from being able to reach you (even in the event of an emergency) – so use it wisely.

How To Print From Your Android Phone

True. The world is moving away from paper printing, as we have more and more portable devices. And in many ways, your Android phone is a perfect replacement for a printer, as you can store and take your documents anywhere you want.

However, it may take another century or so to get rid of red tape completely, and from time to time, as much as we may despise the idea – we will have to print.

But enough with the drama. If you feel like printing from your Android phone, here’s how you do it.

First, you’ll need to get connected to Google Cloud Print, a service that allows you to print over the web from any device, be it your Android phone or tablet. To start with,  let’s tend to your printer. Connect it to your computer and activate Cloud Print support in Chrome – this way you will be syncing your printer with your Google account.

Next, move on to your phone and install Google Cloud Print app.

Now let’s go through the printing process step by step. Select a document you want to bring onto paper, tap the Share button and select Cloud Print app to share the document with. The? you should be able to see your printer and get down to the process. Do note that you will need to be using the same Google account on your phone and printer.

Using a cloud service for printing is quite convenient as you will be able to send documents to your home or office printer from anywhere and even share your printer with others, so that they can do the same – great way to save time (and spend fewer hours at the office).

But printing does not necessarily mean paper. I often us ethe print feature on my laptop to convert a document into PDF. However, and quite unfortunately, our phones do not have a Print button – and thus – no Print To PDF function.

But not all is lost. You can follow pretty much the same steps with a Share button, but you will need to pre-install an app that can convert your files to PDFs.
One way to do that (and if you want to quickly PDF a web page) is to use the ever-handy Cloud Print app that you have already installed. Another great feature of the app, is that once you enable it, your Google Chrome browser (if you do not have one on your phone, you will need to install it) will also have printing functions. So all you’ll have to do is open up a web page in the browser, select Print – and the page will be saved as PDF onto your phone’s Downloads folder, probably under the name “ChromeSnapshots”.

Another way to PDF things is to use the Share button. Share the document with Cloud Print app and save the file to Google Drive. It will then appear in your Google Drive storage as a PDF document – ready for you to access and use anytime you want.

If you are looking to convert more different formats into PDF, you can also look into downloading a specialized app, like Word To PDF for Android. The application handles .doc, .docx, .odt, .ott and .rtf and will do the job quickly with a simple click.

So here it is! Printing has never been so easy – no additional cable mess, driver installation or any fuss of that kind. But as easy as printing has become – do take a minute before tapping “Print” and think if you could just go digital and save a few trees.

How To Adjust Your Android Phone If You Are Left-Handed

From Raphael and Leonardo Da Vinci to Marylin Monroe and Jerry Seinfeld, the world knows lots of outstanding left-handers. And people often say that being left-handed may come with a number of benefits, like being better at certain sports or even having a higher IQ.

However, when it comes to the routine of everyday life, being left-handed may come with quite a few inconveniences. And using a mobile phone is no exception in this. As our phones are becoming more and more ergonomic, and their usage more and more convenient, all users, no matter  right or left-handed, should benefit from it.

So how do you make your Android phone experience better if you are left-handed? Here are a few simple tips:

First thing you’ll need to consider doing (and the one that will enable all the following moderations) is activate CyanoGenMod app, that will (among other things) allow you to make changes that will turn your device into a more left-hand friendly one.

What is CyanoGenMod?

CyanoGenMod is open source firmware, designed for the Android system, allowing its users to get access to features and options not found on their devices by default. Switching to left-handed mode is one of those features and this is what we will cover today.
But CyanoGenMod offers a rather extensive set of other features, like tethering (making your phone double as a modem), overclocking (increasing your phone’s processor speed for better performance), an enhanced reboot menu, application permissions management, Open VPN client and more.

For our current purpose though, let’s get back to the left-hand mode. Once you have the software installed – head on over to Call Settings and enable Left-Hand mode. It’s as simple as that – your phone is now optimized for left-handed use and you will be able to maker smaller tweaks as you navigate your phone for more new features.

Head on over to Settings and enable Left-Hand mode. It’s as simple as that – your phone is now optimized for left-handed use and you will be able to maker smaller tweaks as you navigate your phone for more new features.

So what has changed?

First, it’s about making calls. As a left-handed user, you may have a natural habit of holding your phone to your left ear when talking. However, later versions of Android come with sensors that can detect when you are about to hold up the phone to your face. This comes with some pretty cool benefits, as the phone will automatically disable the touch screen, to avoid any accidental button pressing and send it into sleep mode to save battery. But holding up your phone to the left ear instead of the right can throw off the system and make it works less well. Left-hand mode, enabled thanks to CyanoGenMod, will change that and you’ll be able to hold the receiver any way you like.

Another thing to consider is screen rotation. Android phones are already great in a way that they rotate the screen automatically when you turn your phone. However, the way the screen rotates puts left-hand users at a disadvantage – as all the action buttons will remain on the right side of the screen, making the scrolling or choosing options quite inconvenient.

Once again, CyanoGenMod comes to the rescue. You will need to head over to the Settings menu, go down to Sound and Display, where (only with CyanoGenMod  enabled) you will find a new option labeled Screen Rotation. The option comes with full customization and allows you to choose between 0 and 360 degrees. Selecting 270 degrees will put the action buttons right where they would work best for left-handed users – on the left side of your phone’s screen.

There you go. These may be just a few small tweaks and changes, but we hope that they will improve your comfort level and allow you to operate faster and smoother.

Your 3D-printed car will be ready to drive in 44 hours

You knew the printed car was going to happen, but as soon as this weekend? That’s when the first printed car arrives. It will be built up from carbon-reinforced plastics, then driven out of Chicago’s McCormick Place convention center and onto the streets of the Windy City. The vehicle will be printed over 44 hours. Technicians will add in the unprintable — electric motor, battery, wiring, window glass — and the car, called Strati, should be out the door Saturday.

Rather the print dozens of smaller sub-assemblies and screwing, gluing or bolting them together, the concept car has a main body structure built up as a single module using something called the BAAM Machine. BAAM stands for big area additive manufacturing, with a deposition rate of 40 pounds per hour.

Can your trade show do this?

All this happens at a trade show called IMTS, the International Manufacturing Technology Show. It’s being held this week in the Windy City, attracts 100,000 attendees, and is awash in acronyms. IMTS is run by AMT, the Association for Manufacturing Technology, which promotes US-based manufacturing technology. Many of the manufacturing technologies used to make Strati were pioneered at the DOE (Department of Energy) manufacturing demonstration facility at ORNL (Oak Ridge National Laboratory).

The Strati components that aren’t printed in the trade show microfactory from carbon reinforced ABS plastic (see, another acronym; photo right) will be added to the car by a company called Local Motors. The company also creates specialty cars and motorcycles using more traditional construction techniques.

The built-up, 3D-printed body comprises everything that doesn’t move, doesn’t need to be clear, or doesn’t conduct electricity. Local Motor additions include the motor, battery, wiring, seats, windshield, suspension, wheels and tires, steering wheel, windows, and headlamps. AMT touts the American nature of the operation. France’s Renault supplies much of the EV running gear, though, sourced from the components that go into its Twizy electric cars.

Could this be the future of automaking?

Ford’s River Rouge complex in Dearborn, MI, has 16 million square feet of factory space and can build several hundred thousand vehicles a year. A microprinter doesn’t need much more than the footprint of the car to operate, about 100 square feet, and can build a car every two days, if Strati is typical. (It’s a two-seater, smaller than most cars.) And it would be easy to configure different cars. Want more back seat room because you carry four adults a lot? Want extra headroom for someone who’s six-foot-six? All that is theoretically possible.

Right now, custom-ordering is frowned upon or impossible with cars shipped in from overseas, especially Asia. The same mindset continues even now that they have factories in the US. American automakers will build to order, but it can take a couple months, and a lot of incentives or rebates cover only the cars in dealer stock. German automakers do a brisk business in custom-order and European delivery and the majority of Minis are sold built-to-order. But those are the minority.

If a regional facility or even your dealership printed the car of your dreams this week, it might change the nature of the car business. We’d say it’s for the better. Someone working an assembly line might feel differently.
