First Impression of Samsung Corby Pro:

This phone is like that Nokia N97 (mini) and first look suggests that its an answer to that. Although the QWERTY keyboard with a slider gives a very business oriented look but all the social media and geo tagging features make it work for the youth and teens too.

The Real Experience ( of course which matters most)

Although the touch technology introduced in this hub is pretty much responsive like the Iphone and Ipod, but still it seem as if there is a lot of inconsistency in the touch design. I am saying this because some times the screen will start zooming and running and at times it will act like snail. the logos for different application on the screen are some times confused with scroll and select commands too so I guess this is the major disadvantage of this phone. Apart from this the phone seems to be user friendly and incorporates a very friendly TouchWiz UI. Features like Facebook and other social media apps with Geo tagging etc has the ability to make this phone highly youth oriented and like-able. the QWERTY slider keyboard is poorly manufactured and the keys are very narrowly separated hence giving a tough time while trying to write and email or sms. The camera is so so for this kind of a phone but with 13 Frame-per-second the video quality really proves to be a menace and hence is not a good buy if you are looking to make videos on the run with your phone. The call quality and in-call features are ok but it will really take longer calls to figure out what each in- call feature is made for and its detailed functionality. The media player streaming sound and ring tones of Samsung corby Pro are Ok.

The Final Word:

If you are looking for a highly sleek and trendy phone then Samsung Corby Pro will adequately fulfill your need and style and is a comparatively cheap and inexpensive substitute for iphone.

Brisk Walking vs Running, Jogging - Which is Better for What, and Why

janderson99-HubPages

Walking and running are the most popular physical activities for American adults. In 20 years, the number of people calling themselves runners' in the USA grew from 100,000 to 35 million. Walking is three times more popular than running as a form of regular exercise and is the most popular type of exercise throughout the world. But generally walking rates have declined steadily over the last several decades. For example, fewer children and adults now walk to work or school than they did 50 years ago. However, more people are adopting brisk walking as an exercise to keep fit and help lose or control their weight.

Running is generally more strenuous, because the pace is generally faster. Running should be better for improving heart health and overall fitness, but is this really the case compared with brisk walking? Walling at 100-120 steps per minute (brisk walking pace) can increase heart rates to 100 beats per minute, which is similar to jogging or slow running (heart rate 120-130 beats per minute). Both these heart rates are within the ideal training effort 50-70% of your maximum heart rate, which can be estimated roughly as 220 minus your age.

Running requires more effort because your legs have to lift your body weight up against gravity, rather than gliding along when walking. Running consumes about 20% more energy than walking at the same pace. However, at speeds greater than 5 mph (12 minute mile pace; 8 kph), walking burns more calories than running.

All these issues about how fast, and how far you run or walk, have made any reliable conclusion about whether walking or running us better very difficult.

Does the Tortoise beat the Hare? This article reviews of the evidence.

Does Running Consume More Energy than Walking at the Same Pace, and Why?

Studies have shown that you generally burn about 5 calories for every litre of oxygen you consume while exercising. When you run at the same pace as walking you consume more oxygen because running increases your heart rate more than walking. When you run, you actually perform mini-jumps from one foot to the other. Each mini-jump means that you have to raise to your center of gravity when you take a stride. It is this lifting, which burns more energy than walking at the same pace.

The table below summarizes the comparison between the energy consumed and oxygen consumption rates for a group of women in their 20s running and walking at 7 kph. The data shows that running generally burns about 20% more calories than walking, but the differences will depend on the pace of the walking and running.

However, at speeds faster than 5 mph, 12 minutes a mile pace or 8 kph, walking actually burns more calories than running. This is a very fast walking pace, and the exaggerated arm action and body swiveling required to walk that fast appears to burn more energy. Running is clearly more efficient at faster speeds, walking at slower speeds.

Comparison of Energy Expenditure When Walking and Running at the Same Pace (7km/hour)

Women (20 year old) walking or running 7 km per hour	Walking	Running	Extra for running (percent)
Oxygen connsumption (Liters per minute)	1.4	1.6	14.3%
Heart rate (beats per minute)	142	146	2.8%
Percent of Maximum Heart Rate (about 200 beats/min)	71	73	2.8%
Increase about resting Heart Rate (80 beats/min)	62	66	6.5%
Calories consume per minute	6	7.2	20.0%
Oxygen Uptake (liters per kg per minute)	22.5	26	15.6%

Does Walking and Running the Same Distance, in Different times Consume the Same Amount of Energy?

This is where the Hare and the Tortoise come in.

You burn less calories when exercising at a lower intensity by walking, than you do jogging or running at a faster pace. But if you exercise for a longer period of time, or you cover a longer distance, you may burn more calories walking. It all depends on the pace and distance. Walking at 2 miles per hour, walking at 4 miles per hour, or running at 6 miles per hour may burn the same total number of calories. Here's how:

• A 200 pound man walking one mile in 15 minutes, at a pace of 4 miles per hour would burn 113 calories.
• The same man, running one mile in 10 minutes, at 6 miles per hour would burn 155 calories.
• Strolling for one mile in 30 minute at a pace of 2 miles per hour would burn about 91 calories
• Strolling for 1.25 miles in 38 minutes at a pace of 2 miles per hour, would burn 113 calories, the same amount as walking one mile at a pace of 4 miles per hour.
• Generally walking, probably consumes about 20% less calories than running the same distance, but this difference is not huge.
• Briskly walking 20% further will generally mean that you will consume about the same number of calories as running the same distance at a faster.

Some other points are:

• Intense exercise burns more calories per minute.
• If you weigh more, you will consume more calories doing the same activity.
• The fitter you are the fewer calories you burn doing the same activity.
• The more intense the activity the more efficient will the workout be. You can increase your burn rate when walking by climbing hills or steps.
• Combining walking and running and doing interval training also helps you get fitter faster and get more benefit from your limited training times.

The general exercise activity recommendation for adults is either:

• 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity (brisk walking) per week
• 75 minutes of vigorous (running or jogging) physical activity per week

Calories Burnt per Mile and Kilometer

You can calculate the amount of energy consumed running and walking for various distances using the formulae in the table below. The 'extra calories' are those consumed doing the exercise itself, over and above the basal metabolic rate.

Calorie Consumption Rate Formulae for Walking and Running per mile and kilometer

Activity	Total Calorie Burnt per Mile	Your Net Calorie Burn per Mile
Running	.75 times your weight (in lb)	.63 times your weight (in lb)
Walking	.53 times your weight (in lb)	.30 times your weight (in lb)
	Total Calories Burnt per Kilometer	Extra Calories Burnt per Kilometer
Running	.54 times your weight (in kg)	.26 times your weight (in kg)
Walking	.38 times your weight (in kg)	.22 times your weight (in kg)

Injury Rates for Runners and Walkers

The number of running related injuries has been increasing as the number of runners has increased. Injuries include shin splints, heel spurs, stress fractures, and problems with knees and ankles. Walking is rarely associated with physical injury. Many runners switch to walking later in life due to a build up of injuries from running, particularly due to knee problems.

Is Running or Walking Better for Your Overall Health

Despite numerous studies claiming benefits for one side or the other, recent research has shown that both forms of exercise have about the same effect on risk for high cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes, provided the total energy expenditure for running and brisk walking is about the same.

Someone who walks for 90 minutes may get the same benefit as another person who runs for 30 minutes consuming the same amount of energy. Runners get more done in less time, and this seems to be important in terms of how long people keep to an exercise routine. But the outcome are similar for the same energy consumed.

In terms of weight loss, major studies have shown that runners are generally thinner than walkers and the runner weights were more stable. Walkers tended to put more weight on, especially for people over the age of 50. One of the problems with these long term comparisons is that runners tend to be thinner at the start of the monitoring period and so their physiology may be different, and this may partially explain some of the findings. However these is clear evidence that running is better for weight loss and weight control.

Effect of walking on allcause mortality

Recent studies have shown that walking is associated with a reduced risk of deaths from all causes, ranging from 1930 per cent depending on the length and frequency of walking activities. The highest reduction in mortality was associated with walking 20km per week, while a reduction of 19 per cent was associated with 2.5 hours of brisk walking per week (around 12.5km, assuming walking at about 5km/hour). For example, a recent study of almost 400,000 people found that even short sessions of 15 minutes a day of moderate exercise (which included brisk walking) could increase life expectancy of three years or more. Every additional 15 minutes of exercise undertaken every day reduced the all cause death rates by an additional 4 percent.

Effect of Running on AllCause Mortality

Recent large scale studies have shown that running lower the mortality risk by 19% compared with individuals who did not run. The general observation was that longer distances, faster paces and increasing frequency of running was associated with a diminishing mortality benefit.

Individuals who ran at a pace of 6-7 mph miles had 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality. Running at paces of 8 mph or more, did not significantly improve all-cause mortality. Running quotas of about 20 miles per week generally led to significantly reduced risk of death, but the largest benefit was seen for those who ran between 10 to 15 miles weekly.

Conclusions

Provide the walking is done briskly with heart rates at 50-70% of the maximum rates and the total energy expended is similar to running, the benefits for walking and running are similar. Running takes less time, but there is more risk of minor injuries. Running appears to be better for weight control. Running consumes more energy than walking at the same pace, but the differences are not huge (about 20% extra for running). Both running and walking provide similar benefits in terms of increasing life expectancy and quality of life.

Take home messages:

• For general weight loss, running beats walking, especially for people over 50.
• Running and walking affects appetite in different ways with walkers being hungrier just after exercising, but runners become more famished later.
• Both running and walking lessened the risk of cataracts, diabetes and other common illnesses.
• Walking appears to reduce heart disease risk more than running but both are much better than being sedentary.
• Pace matters for both walking and running, but most benefits appear to be gained with brisk walking and slow to moderate pace running.

So you be the judge. Who wins? The Hare or the Tortoise?

How to Meet Gay Men at The Touch of a Button.

Gay Mobile Apps

Meet gay men using mobile apps.Source: Gay Mobile Apps

Gay and got a smartphone? You may not realise it yet, but your mobile device can connect you to gay men instantly anytime, anywhere. Gay dating apps are redefining how gay men find each other and hook up on the go. At the tap of an icon you too can enjoy the location-based dating tool thats got the gay world buzzing.

Once upon a time meeting gay men on line meant dialling a gay phone chat service from your landline. How times have changed! For over a decade now gay men have had the option of connecting virtually via gay chat lines or on a far vaster scale using gay social networking websites.

Gay chat services are still extremely popular with men who prefer the anonymity and intimacy of a phone chat encounter. Advances in mobile phone technology have allowed traditional gay phone services to optimise their chat platforms, incorporating SMS chat and 3G video chat into the mix.

It is the advent of gay mobile apps however that is transforming how gay men connect with one another. Downloaded to your mobile in an instant, gay dating apps open up a whole new world of possibility in regards to meeting gay men when youre out and about.

Employing GPS technology, a gay app (short for application) allows you to pinpoint other gay men around you. At the tap of an icon you can see who is in your direct vicinity, what they look like and how many feet they are away. It also of course allows other gay men to find you.

At a straight party or club and want to find out if there are any other gay men in the room? How about when youre riding the bus home, at a concert, at the gym? Launch the app by simply clicking an icon on your phones display and youll find gay men wanting to connect everywhere!

How gay apps work in practise

Registering with a gay app service is quick, easy and discreet. You do not need to register or validate an email address or divulge your phone number. Most gay apps (if not all) are free to download and use, with some apps offering enhanced features for a subscription fee.

Upon downloading the application to your mobile you will be required to set up a profile, just as you would on a gay dating site. Photo upload isnt mandatory, but it makes sense to provide an image as photos help users determine which guys they would like to connect with.

Launch the app and immediately a grid style display appears populated with photos of other guys who are using the same service. The guy closest to you appears first in the grid followed by the next closest guy and so on. Keep scrolling and youre presented with page after page of guys who are using the same app as you all looking to connect with other gay men around them.

Click on a thumbnail in the grid feed and you can view that users personal profile, including enlarged photo, his stats and current location. All gay apps allow you to instant message other users with some featuring user designated personal numbers (so you can call each other without divulging your real phone numbers).

Gay apps are developing all the time providing users with more features, for example venue check-in - where you can track which pubs, bars and clubs your fellow app users are frequenting - the idea being it may influence your choice of venue. Its also another way to let other users know youre in the gay app club!

How to find gay apps

There are now several gay apps on the market all working basically in the same way, but with each offering their own unique added service features. They are easy to find, go to the iPhone App Store, the Android Market or your mobile devices online software store (where you download apps) and search Gay to see which gay dating apps your service is providing.

Top five gay app tips

1. Upload a photo to your app profile. By uploading an image you increase your chances of connecting with more guys.

2. Make the first move. Dont wait around for guys to message you; most guys will be flattered and happy that youve initiated contact. This maximises your chat success rate.

3. When messaging try ending with a question. This prompts the other guy to reply and keeps the conversation flowing.

4. Consider blocking guys who continually appear in the grid feed and that you have no interest in. This cleans up your feed and allows room for new guys to appear sooner.
