Moto G 2nd Generation -detailed review

Moto G 2nd Generation-

The second Moto G (marketed as simply Moto G) is an Android smartphone developed by Motorola Mobility. Released on September 5, 2014, it is a successor to the original Moto G released in 2013. The phone was initially aimed at developing markets, although it is also available in developed markets as a lower-cost option compared to other phones in its class.

Hardware-
The phone features a 5 inch HD LCD IPS screen, coated with Gorilla Glass 3, Google Android Kitkat 4.4.4 operating system, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 quad-core processor clocked at 1.2 GHz, 1 GB of RAM, with a "splashproof" coating, curved backing, and front-mounted stereo speakers below and above the screen. The Moto G has 8/16 GB of internal storage, which can be expanded up to 32 GB with a MicroSD card. The Moto G 2nd Generation only supports up to 3G connectivity, and is available in a dual SIM model in selected markets. The device includes a non-removable 2070 mAh battery, which Motorola touted as having "all-day" battery life. The Moto G features an 8-megapixel rear-facing auto-focus camera; the device includes a flash and a front-facing 2-megapixel camera. The device is available in either black or white front colors, and has an interchangeable rear cover with different color options.

The phone is closely related to the new Motorola devices like Moto G, Moto X, Moto E; although there are some key differences despite their similar appearances. The Moto G does not have active notifications, quick capture, and touchless control like the Moto X due to the Moto X using a special processor that would be cost-prohibitive for the Moto G. However, the phone gets the Ambient Display feature in the Lollipop update, but it only works for new notifications. Unlike the Moto X, the Moto G has a removable back cover so that users can customize the phone in whatever color they want; although the Moto X has its online Moto Maker that also allows the user to customize their phone, the casing on it is permanent instead of interchangeable like the Moto G.

Software

The second generation Moto G ships with Android 4.4.4 "KitKat", using a mostly stock user experience with additional, proprietary software features; including Moto Alert, which allows users to notify others of their location. Moto Assist, as introduced by the Moto X, which automatically enables or disables certain modes, such as silencing the ringer or auto replying to text messages, depending on certain scenarios—such as when a user is in a meeting as determined by their calendar, or driving, Motorola Migrate and the usual Google Applications package. The handset comes preloaded with Google Now Launcher as the default home screen launcher. Motorola has committed to providing an update to Android "Lollipop" following its release.

Firmware updates
The Motorola Moto G 2nd Generation received an Android 4.4.4 KitKat Maintenance Update in September 2014. The update brings to the version 21.11.23 over the same Android version. The update brings various bug fixes and performance improvements. The main primary change noticed in this update is the update to Google Now Launcher, improvement in battery life, new Language and input options, a (very rarely noticed) new camera picture-taking sound & a brand new design for the "Powered By Android" logo on the boot screen. The Android™ 5.0 Lollipop update started rolling out for this device starting on 12 November 2014. This update brings to the version 22.11.6 along with other improvements.[1] The Pure Edition of this phone in the US (carrier unlocked version) became the world's first mobile phone, after Google's flagship Nexus models, to be updated with Android™ 5.0 Lollipop. Updates for the model to the rest of the world are scheduled to be rolled out in the subsequent weeks.

Motorola, with its software update urgency, with both the first and second generation Moto G models now being treated to the latest Android 5.0.2 update. Few people have received the update so far but it does seem to be rolling out now and would be received by all users.

Today education and craft.

In my views,Our educational system, in its entirety, does nothing to give us any kind of material competence. In other words, we don't learn how to cook, how to make clothes, how to build houses, how to make love, or to do any of the absolutely fundamental things of life. The whole education that we get for our children in school is entirely in terms of abstractions. It trains you to be an insurance salesman or a bureaucrat, or some kind of cerebral character.

Introduction to DIY

Do it yourself (DIY) (which I describe)  is the method of building, modifying, or repairing something without the aid of experts or professionals or creating something new which is helpful. Academic research describes DIY as behaviors where "individuals engage raw and semi-raw materials and component parts to produce, transform, or reconstruct material possessions, including those drawn from the natural environment (e.g. landscaping)".DIY behavior can be triggered by various motivations previously categorized as marketplace motivations (economic benefits, lack of product availability, lack of product quality, need for customization), and identity enhancement (craftsmanship, empowerment, community seeking, uniqueness)[2] The term "do-it-yourself" has been associated with consumers since at least 1912 primarily in the domain of home improvement and maintenance activities.[3] The phrase "do it yourself" had come into common usage (in standard English) by the 1950s,[4] in reference to the emergence of a trend of people undertaking home improvement and various other small craft and construction projects as both a creative-recreational and cost-saving activity.
Beyond magazines and television, the scope of home improvement DIY continues to grow online where most mainstream media outlets now have extensive DIY-focused informational websites such as This Old House, Martha Stewart, Hometalk, and the DIY Network. These are often extensions of their magazine or television brand. The growth of independent online DIY resources is also spiking.[9] The number of homeowners who blog about their experiences continues to grow, along with DIY websites from smaller organizations.

Çinema 4D introduction

The new basic CINEMA 4D modeling tutorial uses practical examples and interactive instruction methods, which have become hallmarks of digital-tutors’ products. With more than three hours of instruction and a total of 31 lessons, we are shown how to use the most important CINEMA 4D tools and features to build a model car. The video tutorial offers a basic introduction to polygon modeling and how to create geometry using splines and Generator objects. The car is then fine-tuned using features such as Subdivision surfaces and CINEMA 4D R15’s highly optimized Bevel tool.CINEMA 4D unlike most of the other big 3D programs actually has a very user friendly and intuitive interface. However, that doesn’t mean you won’t need a little help to point you in the right direction if you’re new to 3D or perhaps have just encountered the free version of CINEMA 4D in After Effects and want to know how to get started with it.Searching for helpful CINEMA 4D beginner tutorials can be a bit of a chore, so I’ve collected some of the best beginner tutorials for CINEMA 4D all one page. Hopefully, by the time you’ve gone through these CINEMA 4D introductory tutorials, you’ll have a good grasp of how CINEMA 4D works and you can move onto some of the more advanced CINEMA 4D tutorials.
