| Xiaomi Arch - Duel-edged SmartPhone |
Samsung released their Galaxy Note Edge which has a single-side curved edge display. One of the common compliant from users about the device is that if you hold your phone in your right hand, the edge works well. If you hold it in your left, it actually degrades the experience of using the device. Xiaomi not to be outdone have announced a duel-edged device. The Xiaomi Arch will have two curved edges and will effectively take care of the problem being faced by the Galaxy note Edge. The edges according to the company will be used to display notifications, live updates and other important data. The device is still in concept and should be made available later this year.

White Sand Dunes | Brazil's Lençóis Maranhenses National Park | By Gianni Monterzino
Please click on image to expand. The sands are white and look like snow from a distance. This is not a desert as the area gets regular rain. The reason there are no plants might be because there is not enough nutrients in the sand. All the regular rainwater collects into pools and form gorgeous lagoons. You can find out more about the place before visiting. [Image source here and here]

Madonna under fire after comparing herself to Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King and others [Photos]
The pic above is the the new artwork for Madonna's new album 'Rebel Heart'. What better way to gain attention than by creating a little controversy. So this is what the queen of pop did. She launched a campaign on Twitter and Instagram with the hashtag #RebelHeart. She started to photoshop her cover artwork onto famous personalities and took it a bit too far when using images of Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King and also people like Bob Marley. There is also a pic of 'Christ the redeemer' from Brazil. Onto which she photo shopped her artwork. Calling all of them Rebels -- which is true to a large extent. All of them wanted to beat the system and bring about a change. It cost them dear and took a lot of pain and sacrifice. Almost always was a lifetime's worth of work. Seems a little pretentious comparing herself to 'True hearts'. [Madonna on Instagram -- Madonna on Twitter]
