Huawei Ascend Q hands-on (video)

Huawei Ascend Q handson video

Huawei's taken to the Taste of Chicago event in Chicago to introduce its fresh pair of myTouch phones to the world, but it also had another gem at its booth: the Huawei M660, also known as the Ascend Q. An upcoming smartphone that's poised to hit the US in August, the company plans to launch the device on Cricket as a prepaid handset. It's certainly not high-end, but we weren't exactly expecting it to take the no-contract carrier by storm in that sense. In fact, spec junkies may be a little disappointed at what they see in the portrait QWERTY phone: a 3.2-inch HVGA touchscreen display, Android 2.3.6, an 800MHz CPU, 1,500mAh battery, microSD storage slot and a 3MP fixed-focus rear camera with no LED flash. The device will also feature Muve Music, a Cricket staple that's starting to be included on most of its smartphone lineup.

The keyboard, while small, actually closely resembles a BlackBerry Bold -- its keys are pretty close together, but each key offers a ridge that gives our fingers a little more travel and makes it easier to type than most other 'boards its size. The one concern we had with the keyboard was its placement of some of the keys -- for instance, there's a messaging access button on the lower right corner of the device, which we accidentally hit on multiple occasions when we were attempting to hit the much smaller enter key just above it. For a Gingerbread device with an 800MHz CPU, the Ascend Q actually runs pretty smooth, with minimal lag when going in between various tasks. And in our limited time with the device, we were able to do a quick SunSpider test, which yielded a score of 4,800. In terms of the user interface, the Gingerbread UI on the Q is reminiscent to the skin we've encountered on previous Huawei phones such as the Honor and Mercury.

Overall, this will likely be a good device for prepaid fans interested in a smaller messaging device. Huawei wasn't able to give us any mention of pricing yet, but we imagine it will be quite a reasonable cost on Cricket. Check out our hands-on gallery and full video below.

Is It Possible To Train Your Self Guitar?

Is it feasible to educate your self guitar? The answer depends on the specific person who is trying to understand. Those who are tone deaf, who can't differentiate between different notes, or who aren't willing to put in the necessary effort and time may be better off taking a course or hiring a music trainer. For most people this goal is obtainable with a small budget and some time invested learning and practicing.

Anyone who really wants to learn how to play an instrument with out professional support can find lessons on the internet to use. It is important that the learning procedure follows a certain curriculum because each lesson will develop the concepts and ideas previously discovered. Missing certain lessons could affect the capability to play the guitar well and must be corrected. Start with fundamental music concepts and courses so that musical notes and scores can be read and recognized.

When you teach your self guitar but find that there are particular ideas or elements that are challenging then a music tutor might be hired to finish the learning process and offer ideas. Web based classes don't normally provide feedback and this is something that every single musician needs while learning. For many people the teach your self method could be highly efficient for beginners but advanced techniques and concepts may need further support.


Educating your self means following your own schedule and time frame. Several music and instrument stores carry sheet music and instruction manuals for beginners with nearly every musical instrument accessible. Several of these guides and workbooks offer priceless tips and hints which will help you learn faster and play much better. To play the guitar well it is vital to read music and identify specific notes. Several libraries carry books on these topics for individuals who do not want to spend cash buying books.

An on-line search will reveal many valuable resources that are free or low cost, and these resources consist of beneficial information. All the instructional supplies accessible on learning the guitar means that professional tutoring is not normally required. If this kind of training is required the cost is lessened and help is only used for certain areas of the classes.

Former President Bush Joins Fight Against Cervical Cancer


WASHINGTON - Former President George W. Bush is in Africa this week to promote cervical cancer detection and treatment programs for women, many of whom are living with HIV.? While Bush?s tenure in office was marked by unpopular wars and what critics say were failed economic policies, since leaving office he has been quietly building upon his success as president in fighting AIDS in Africa.

In Kabwe, Zambia?s second largest city, former President George W. Bush and his wife Laura opened of a new health clinic that specializes in the early detection and treatment of cervical cancer in women.
?
?We care because we believe that to whom much is given, much is required,? said Bush. ?And those of us who live in America, live in the most blessed nation ever and therefore when we see suffering, we ought to act.?
?
Through his George W. Bush Center and other partner organizations, the former president has raised more than $85 million for cervical cancer programs.
?
He says his goal is to build upon one of the great bipartisan achievements of his presidency.
?
His 2003 AIDS initiative that initially funded $15 billion-worth of anti-retroviral drugs and treatment to extend the lives of millions of Africans with HIV and AIDS.
?
Zambia now has the second highest number of cervical cancer cases in the world, in part because many of the women infected with the disease are also living with HIV and have weakened immune systems.
?
?But the saddest thing of all is to know a lady?s life has been saved from AIDS but died from cervical cancer,? said Bush. ?And so starting in Zambia, the Bush Center, along with our partners, are going to put on a cervical cancer crusade to save lives.?
?
Jane Chanda, who is HIV positive, is one of the first women at the center to undergo the screening.? The health worker applies vinegar to the cervix area - to turn any cancerous nodes white - and then uses a digital camera to locate any potential problems.? The screening shows Jane to be cancer-free and she says she is grateful to former President Bush.
?
?He?s a very nice person,? said Chanda. ?I thank him and I am wishing you [him] a happy life, a good life.?
?
At home Bush?s presidency remains a controversial subject, dominated by the terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001, prolonged wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and a deep global recession.
?
But in Zambia and much of Africa, he is remembered for saving lives.? A mother in Kabwe who just gave birth named her baby George in honor of his visit.
?
J. Stephen Morrison, director of the Health Policy Center at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, says. Bush deserves the credit.? He says in 2003,? Bush saw AIDS in Africa as a humanitarian disaster - that if left unchecked could destabilize the entire continent.
?
?When the president came forward and said, ?HIV/AIDS - we can save lives,? said Morrison. ?We can enhance lives. We can stabilize societies.?? It was with a very powerful ethical and moral rationale as much as it was about a security rationale.?
?
In his post-presidency Mr. Bush says he will continue to advocate for global health issues. For him, he says, it is a labor of love.
