The new HTC One M8 has only been out for a few hours, but it's apparent that some people had their hands on the device before the announcement. And well, one them decided to drop the thing in water.
While Siri's integration with the iPhone is becoming increasingly substantial, restrictions with the intelligent personal assistant are apparent when it comes to third-party apps like Google Maps, Netflix, and Spotify (unless your iPhone is jailbroken, of course). As an avid Spotify user, it's distressing that I can't use Siri to navigate through the music streaming service's extensive library. In the car, I use Spotify about 90% of the time and it can become increasingly frustrating to chang...
When you're capturing video with a DSLR, not having some type of stabilization system can lead to some pretty awful and shaky scenes.

Learn how to deal with bees without getting stung. This instructional video from Howcast offers tips on handling yellow jackets.
We can't get enough of fresh herbs in our cooking, but that's just the problem: About 2 days after we purchase our sprigs of thyme and sage they look sadder than Ashton Kutcher's last romantic comedy.
Valentine's Day is traditionally thought of to be a lover's holiday. You know, the whole Casanova-esque wooing with red roses and chocolates exchanged, romantic dinner dates by candlelight in hopes of Cupid working his magic later on. But Valentine's Day can be just as fun for kids.
When it comes to Valentine's Day presents, let's face it: Non-handmade is best. It's not that we don't want that hand knitted heart sweater, but it's nice on the romantic holiday for a sweeter and couple-centric treat like a couple's massage or tickets to a play.
When the weather turns cooler and you begin to see the first signs of snow outside, you know it's time to whip out the comfort foods. And there's really nothing better to help you warm up inside than a nice, hearty stew.

We don't know that we'd want to live a burlesque lifestyle - stripteases, pole dances, outrageously sequined costumes - but we do know we love ourselves a pretty burlesque hairstyle. After all, there is no better way to feel drop dead gorgeous and glamorous than with a romantic, retro 'do.
What we love about braided an/or curly hairstyles is that they're so romantic and make us feel like princesses. What we don't like is the fact that they take forever plus a day to do, which doesn't make us happy when we're in a rush to go to school in the morning.
Bohemian hair makes us happy. Maybe it's something about how "undone" it looks: Loose, wavy, and with stray hairs all over the place, it's the ultimate romantic hairstyle and somehow always elevates you from just woken up sleepy mole person to ravishing fairytale princess.
We love this hair tutorial because it teaches you how to create the equivalent of a cinnamon bun on the side of your head. A Dutch braid is basically a braid that you swirl around and around itself in order to form a circular shape. While doing this on both sides of your head would be a little much (we're not going for Princess Leia here), opting for just a single Dutch braid on one side.
"Thunder" by Boys Like Girls is the ultimate late summer song. About a boy who falls head over heels over a girl and then gets propelled into a whirlwind romance, "Thunder" rhapsodizes on effervescent, fleeting summer love that crashes wildly into your life.
Whatever your favorite flower may be, you can't deny that roses are the most romantic and alluring flowers around.

Show your significant other just how much you love them by surprising him or her with one of life's most precious, romantic gifts—bacon! Best thing is, this passionate treat works for any day of the year (Valentine's Day, a first date, anniversary, etc.), since love and bacon go hand in hand.
Everyday hair doesn't have to be boring hair. In fact, doing one of the hairstyles presented in this video series doesn't take any more time (okay, maybe one or two more minutes) than your usual "I'm lazy and tired" ponytail.
Do you want to spice up your relationship and say something romantic on valentine's day? How about saying "I love you" or "I like you" in Vietnamese? This will sound different depending on if a guy or a girl is saying to one another. For a girl to say "I like you" to a guy, she would say "Em th’ch anh" and for a guy to say it to a girl, they would say "Anh th’ch em". For a girl to say "I love you" to a guy, she would say "Em yu anh". For a guy to say it to a girl, he would say "Anh yu em".
The Enzo Milano curling iron is revolutionary in that it is clipless. If you've curled your hair a few times before then you know that a great deal of curling irons always have a clip attached that holds in the hair, keeping it in place when you curl.

This tutorial teaches us how to play an acoustic guitar cover of Daughtry's "Life After You". Done entirely from the performer's (not Daughtry, as should be immediately apparent) bed, it features handy graphics that help to overcome the somewhat quietly recorded audio and make the video an effective tool for learning how to play this popular song by the former American Idol finalist.
Watch this video to learn how to edit the Windows Experience Index. While it may not be apparent from the video, but it is really quite simple. Browse to C:\Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore
Dogensangha describes in this video how one may experience the universe in body and mind through apparent non-action.
Purchasing a present for your sweetheart on Valentine's Day is stressful enough. If you go with something too personal - like some expensive Spanx underwear because she always complains about her muffin top - she'll get offended, but if you go with something too cliche and general - like a box of chocolates - she'll think you don't care.
You know how some women won't leave the house without at least some rouge and red lipstick on? We're pretty sure that Nicole Richie can't leave the house without at least one bohemian hairband in her hair.
We have nothing against posh, elegant romantic curls or modern pin-straight hair, but don't you ever miss the days when you were just a kid experimenting with her mom's drawer of hair goodies? Creating crazy styles was so fun and the results were always unpredictable.
Kizomba may not sound as familiar to you as a dance like the Viennese Waltz (in fact, it sounded like a funky toy to us at first), but in Africa it's THE dance to do.
In this tutorial, we learn how to say tender words to a woman in Russian. When you want to learn how to say romantic or nice phrases, you will first need to learn how to say the dialect correctly and get the accent right. Once you have this down, you can say "ti takaya prelesnaya" to say "you are so pretty". To say "you are so tender", you will say "ti takaya nezhnaya". To say "you are so sweet" you will say "ti takaya milaya" in Russian. Once you have a few of these phrases down, you will kn...
You'll feel a sense of great victory once you've completed a set of victory rolls because they sure are hard to do! But don't let the difficulty level of this retro '40s and '50s hairstyle deter you from creating one of the most romantic looks we've ever laid eyes on.
"Break Your Heart" by Taio Cruz and Ludacris may not be the most romantic song in the world - it's about a player warning a girl about dating him because he's only going to, you guessed it, break her heart - but it certainly sounds like one of the best songs we've heard in a while.
This makeup style was inspired by the Irish folklore creatures called Leprechauns, with their greens and pots of gold. Marinshe shows you this green makeup look that's perfect for Saint Patrick's Day, with a little bit of gold to top it off!
Yeah, we know the title of this video sounds confusing (dichroic what?), but a tri-strand necklace with a dichroic glass pendant is simply a fancy term for a necklace composed of three strands with a glass pendant hanging from the bottom.
In this tutorial, we learn how to write a love song on the piano with Nate Bosch. Keys to writing a love song include making tenderness with a light sound and following through. The e-flat key makes a beautiful sound that is perfect for a long song. You can use the lighter twinkling sounds at the end to make a light sound that is also romantic. Go to an open octave to add a very light sound that will compliment your notes perfectly as well. Make sure you use sounds that will compliment vocal ...
Need a standout hairstyle for prom that you can be sure no one else will have? Then chuck all stereotypes of traditional hair beauty (romantic waves, or a severe updo) and take a walk on the wild side by replicating Lady Gaga's fun hair bow.
