Samsung Announces Enormous Phone Called Galaxy Mega""Somewhere at Samsung's sprawling campus deep in the headquarters of the mobile phone division there is a Powerpoint slide with a simple line graph.

It does not note that the marketing budget for Samsung's enormous phones is much larger than for the smaller phones.

It does not note that Samsung also typically reserves its best hardware for its large phones.

It does not note that Samsung no longer even makes flagship phones with screens smaller than about 4. 5 inches.

and has succeeded with a phone that's never had a larger screen than 4 inches.

Whenever a reviewer says phones like the newly announced Samsung Galaxy Mega which has either a 6. 3

when you use it to make phone calls you look like a child with his head down on a school desk that these phones represent the worst tendencies of Samsung a company with the creativity

And so Samsung continues on the path laid out by this graph blowing past the 6-inch mark with a phone that is larger than several gadgets called tablets.

This phone is over half a foot long. That is a fact with numbers. This phone has middling specs.

It's not even as fast in the oblique and increasingly useless list of numbers that constitute speed as the Galaxy S 4

I will have an app and cables to jump start my car lol. Not that I'm a fan of the prospect of this phone

but this was literally the worst written article I've ever read here. Almost entirely overly-angry biased spew.

I had apple friends that talked about hacking the ipad mini to be a phone

I cary around a phone and a tablet 95%of the time when I leave the house.

and bluetooth to tablets and a lot of people might just leave their phone at homes most days.

(or more with google voice) and 2 devices (just pay for the second device). I would love to be able to text on my tablet (not using an app to cheat texting

but actual texting like phones do). If that were the case I would probably have an 8-10 device and like a 3-4 device.

Big phones are here to stay. Reviewers hated the Galaxy Note. Turns out they were completely wrong.

I personally agree that this phone is going to be a little too large. But these reviewers seem to have a vendetta of sorts trying to correct their previous massive blunder.

Oh Lord: Popsci editors have hatred a tremendous towards anything not Apple...Give it up guys Apple is losing ground

The phones are also amazing -and despite the plastic backing everyone complains about on the Galaxy S series it is a brilliant design b c it is lightweight cheap and replaceable

big phones sell! Long answer: don't think of this as phone. Think of it as the evolution of PC.

The future of laptops and netbooks. A laptop that fits your pocket that makes phone calls

another news article whining about how big this phone is. Again this is a multimedia pda consuption mobile office device.

I hold up an iphone its screen looks like a minature toy. Samsung is on the right path.

This cell phone is feeding the USA appetite. Dan bummer this wont fit in your NY skinny jeans. May

The only reason I bought a flagship 4. 7 phone is because it wasn't available in a 4. 3 size.

I'm torn between my dislike of enormous phones and my distaste for biased journalism...

I make my calls with Skype on my laptop or PC. Big screens. Good work Samsung!

I think the correct size for any phone is whatever is the biggest one you can hold with one hand.

and go ahead and admit we need fanny packs to be back in style for these larger phones.

That is why I love large screen phones. They give me a confidence that allows me to prosper.

Thank you big screen phones!!I remember when the first Galaxy Note came out. At the time it seemed similar in size to a Kindle...

so I felt that was a little big for a phone. I have an older Kindle Keyboard

and tried to imagine using it like a phone; the concept of possibly knocking myself out with it just because

) And now Samsung has an even bigger phone than that? Wow. But...I no longer hate the concept.

My phone has replaced pretty much my computer. And tablets while super cool? Just still seem too large

In this case the GM plant is Bt corn and the pest in question is the Spodoptera frugiperda

Bt plants are engineered so that they have genes from a soil bacteria called Bacillus thuringiensis. The genes produce crystalline chemicals that kill insect larvae when they eat it.

A larva that chows down on a Bt-crystal-producing GM plant soon stops eating.

*In addition to Bt corn Bt cotton is popular. Yet resistance to Bt crops has been occurring with pest species throughout the world.

The first publicly announced case of insects in a field evolving resistance to Bt plants occurred in India in 2009.

The first U s. case followed in 2011. Since then there have been dozens of similar incidents.

In 2013 a team of entomologists and agriculture scientists reviewed 77 previous studies about international Bt crops.

The team found that in 2005 only one of the 13 pest species examined could eat Bt plants without dying.

But by 2013 five species could eat Bt plants. The first engineered Bt plant was registered by a U s. company in 1995

but not long afterward scientists noted that insects would likely evolve resistance to them. Controlling pests whether it's with microbes in a hospital

The rising Bt resistance means that farmers will likely ramp up their insecticide use. One group of Brazilian farmers even wants GMO companies to reimburse them for the additional insecticides they had to use

because their Bt crops failed to deter pests. Companies are also likely developing new GMO crops perhaps with more insect toxins engineered into them to combat the newly evolved resistance.

There is already a second generation of genetically modified Bt crops that make two Bt toxins instead of just one.

So does planting first-and second-generation Bt crops separately. Both strategies lessen the deadly pressure against insects susceptible to Bt poisoning so they'll evolve more slowly.

Seed company Dow Agrosciences told Reuters that Dow representatives taught Brazilian farmers these strategies. The companies'instructions were confusing a lawyer representing the farmers told Reuters

Most non-scientist Americans first learned about Bt corn when a study came out finding that pollen from the corn may kill caterpillars of the monarch butterfly.

Later studies have found that Bt corn doesn't significantly affect the numbers of monarch butterflies
