Nokia launches Lumia 620 – Most affordable Windows Phone 8 device
Today Nokia have announced their third and most affordable Windows Phone 8 handset. This one is designed specifically to appeal to the youthful, fun side of the market.
The Nokia Lumia 620 uses a new 'dual-shot' colour technique to deliver a variety of striking colour and texture effects. Dual-shot adds a second layer of coloured, transparent or translucent polycarbonate on top of a base layer to produce secondary colour blends and depth effects. There will be a range of seven exchangeable shells so folks can customise the look even further.
The Lumia 620 will sport a 3.8" WVGA 800x480 screen that uses Nokia's familiar 'Clear Black' polarising screen technology to reduce glare. It will also pack a Snapdragon S4 dual core CPU running at 1 GHz, so it's clocked a bit slower than other Windows Phone 8 handsets. The 620 will also have a base memory of 512MB RAM and 8GB of on-board storage. Thankfully it also has the option to increase storage by way of MicroSD cards of up to 64GB in size.
Nokia had this to say on the launch:
"We continue to execute on our strategy to reach new audiences and new markets," said Jo Harlow, executive vice president, Nokia Smart Devices. "With its innovative design, the latest Windows Phone 8 software and signature experiences from Nokia, like Nokia lenses, Nokia Maps and Nokia Music, the Nokia Lumia 620 is a highly competitive smartphone at this price point."
Cameras will be taken care of with a 5MP F 2.4 Aperture, 28.0mm focal length but will not have the Carl Zeiss optics. For the purposes of video calling the device will house a standard VGA front facing camera.
The Lumia 620 supports Bluetooth 3.0, NFC and the usual Wi-Fi Standards a/b/g/n but there is no option for the Qi Wireless charging. The device supports a replaceable battery and weighs in at 127g.
Nokia also had this to say:
"People can do more of the things they love when they choose a mobile device that has a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor," said Enrico Salvatori, senior vice president and president of Qualcomm Europe. "The Snapdragon S4 Plus processor is the heart of the Nokia Lumia 620, making it possible to multi-task, stream in HD and share content at super-fast speeds."
Initially the device is set to become available in a range of colours including, lime green, orange, magenta, yellow, cyan, white and black. The price of the handset is going to be around USD $249 without taxes and subsidies. Initial shipping will commence in Jan 2013 in Asia, followed shortly by the EU and Middles East.

Let us know what you think about the latest addition to the Lumia range in the comments below. Thanks to everyone who tipped us!

So does the 8S also support 64GB SD Cards?
rianext says:
Think so...but something that definitely goes in favour of the 620 is NFC support which the 8s doesn't have...
tissotti says:
Not to talk about the price difference. HTC's suggested price for 8S is 339 euros. Nokia's suggested price for Lumia 620 is 190 euros. Lumia 620 also got 8GB vs 4GB on 8S.
one thing this does makes me wonder, what place does this leave for WP7.x? if Nokia wants to keep WP7.x (like they have said), this means WP7.x must take Nokia's S40 place in the super low end (30-150 euros).
Tomasz S. says:
Also, the 8S only has 4GBs for the OS, apps and Games. Moreover the 620 seems to be priced lower. Poor HTC - Nokia and Samsung are going to destroy them on all fronts.
oditius says:
According to HTC website the 8x has NFC. I also could swear that I read that all WP8 phones come with it.
tissotti says:
EDIT: you where talking about 8X. Lumia 620 and (X do really have nothing in common other than WP8. Lumia 620 is 400 euros cheaper.
Are you sure? Multiple news site reported it had no NFC, neither can i find it being mentioned by HTC's own site or GSMarena spec list.
Starlight87 says:
HTC 8x definitely has NFC
First tip for improving 8x battery life is to switch NFC off....
But I think you mixed 8x and 8s. HTC 8s doesn't have NFC
kunwar_91 says:
8X has NFC
but low end 8S does not have NFC
dominicancash says:
Poor HTC ,Samsung killed them with android , and they don't even have a shot with wp8 lol ,who's gonna buy the 8s ,or 8x when you can get the 920 or 620 pls.
Round And Round says:
I'm buying the 8X , speak for yourself
tigermcm says:
I have a red 8x and my wife has a blue 8x sooo yeah speak for yourself
cmdates2991 says:
People who aren't on AT&T. Both AT&T and T-Mobile have crap service where I live. Verizon also happens to have LTE here so it's a no brainer. I got an 8X and I have no regrets.
snakechia says:
Hohohoho gooooood
toyotast165 says:
Nope, after Xmas. My wife saw that pink 920 story awhile back and that's all she wants now, another pink phone, I would have gotten her this but its not getting released till after the holidays... Hope they come out with pink model for Xmas or I'm gunna have to just get jewelry lol
rianext says:
The phone seems to be priced well...sales will be awesome if its priced right in India...:)
pankaj981 says:
Agreed, looks like a PERFECT budget device..
kunwar_91 says:
budget> come on man! nokia said its 249$ that means 12500Rs and after taxes its almost 15000Rs .. and for that its a dual core device 3.8'CBD display 8Gb internal, all other devices are so expensive with these specs ... HTC One V is 17k n htc 8S has been announced for 19k this is the best phone to get in india for budget of 15-20k i'm just wondering what will be in the 700 series lumia wp8 model
pankaj981 says:
Well thats what I meant..its the best bang for the buck device..
GuilhermeManso says:
This is the "Zune-lke design" that The Verge noticed some months ago. The dual shot color technique was used in the Zunes firt gens too. I love this!!!!! Congratulations Nokia!!!
scarlet0pimp says:
I thought the 8s also has a 1ghz dual core, the article seems to suggest this is the slowest windows 8 phone, when it will be as fast as the 8s.
tissotti says:
yeah, they share the same exact SoC.
diego3336 says:
This is the kind of device that needs Instagram to be successful. I can imagine a bunch of kids and teenagers wanting this device because of the funny and modern look, but refusing to buy because the lack of Instagram.
Kristijan87 says:
Sadly, I agree with you. Although Instagram is something I couldn't care less about, for some people it's a must have. Especially the younger audience, at which this device is aimed for. Facebook (because Marky owns Instagram now) must be pressed (or payed) to issue an Instagram app for Windows Phone, a.s.a.p., and, if possible, the one packing the same feature set as Android and iOS, not some dumbed down version...
pankaj981 says:
Lol... Considering the fact that FB hasnt even developed its own app for WPX devices, i highly doubt they will developing/porting Instagram...it has to MS or some other company who has to take its stance..
nwildcat says:
I don't think the success of the 620 will hinge on Instagram. This appears to be a device they are expecting to launch internationally, not in the US. I believe Instagram, though popular in many countries, is most popular in English speaking countries and in Europe. So while it may have a hurdle to get over with that mentioned EU launch, probably not as much for the Asian and Middle East ones. Not to mention, when it comes down to it, if the price is right that might trump everything else since they pay full retail for phones most places outside of the US.
diego3336 says:
Believe me, there's a lot of "instagrammers" in Asia and Middle East. Sometimes, almost a half of pictures on Popular page (think about an Instagram version of Twitter's trending topics) are from users from Asia and Middle East, including a lot of local artists. I'm from Brazil and Instagram is huge between teenagers here too.
nwildcat says:
I didn't say there weren't a lot in those countries, I said I don't think success hinges on Instagram there as much. Look at the comment below about its irrelevancy in India. I'm not saying it wouldn't be nice and I'm not surprised its popular in Brazil, but having a lot of Instagrammers in a certain country and having popular pictures from those countries doesn't make it a deal breaker. I know for sure I've read that Instagram is not a consistent top 10/20 app in many Asian markets, that's what I mean. Brazil and South America weren't mentioned in this article at all, so I wouldn't assume this phone is going there anytime soon.
Diego Godoy says:
The Blog Nokia Brasil has said:
"Gostou dele? Nós também. O melhor é que você não vai precisar esperar muito: já no 1 º trimestre de 2013 ele está chegando por aqui. O preço vai valer muuuuuuuuuuuuuito a pena. A gente garante. ;)"
"Liked ? We too. the best is that you wont' need to wait much: in the Q1 of 2013 they will arrive here. The price will worthwhile. We Guarantee. ;)"
nwildcat says:
I don't speak Portugeuse but can guess what that says since that translation isn't great. Doesn't change that this article doesn't mention Brazil and what is or is not popular in Brazil isn't necessarily indicative of other parts of the world, same with the US.
VerizonMidwest says:
Dude... he just gave you the translated quote from Nokia Brazil. The article doesn't mention Brazil, but Nokia Brazil says it's coming Q1.
Sounds like the 620 is going to make a big splash in the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China)... happy to see this.
anujtwp says:
Instagram is totally irrelevant in India. And I am sure India will be one and most important among FEW markets this phone launch in.
rianext says:
true...i.never knew heard abt instagram being so popular until I came over to WP and saw everybdy complaining abt it missing...:P
aubreyq says:
Gautam_vb says:
kunwar_91 says:
yea instagram is totally irrelevant in india , my friends with iphones , one X and all kind of high end phones dont even what it is ... let alone the target market of 620 ... this phone is gonna sell like hotcakes if its priced 300$ i.e around 15k Rs in india
krishna6233 says:
aubreyq says:
This is nice. The non-subsidized price is pretty damn good.
znellu says:
Guess WP Central got a bit late in reporting about Lumia 620 :)
Round And Round says:
Who cares
znellu says:
wrighty694 says:
Nice move to introduce an 'entry-level' handset to the range by Nokia.....good call!!
cedarlog says:
now htc 8s has a tough competitor :)
pankaj981 says:
I dont even think the 8s even is in competition. With built in skype video calling, removable sd card (this is huge for a budget device), nokia exclusive apps (another huge point), low pricing and off course nokia as a brand name...the 8s will be lacking way way behind...
kunwar_91 says:
let me add more CBD screen, nokia build quality, 8GB internal memory, Dolby support on headphones, this is one awesome phone
augustofretes says:
"Nokia buld quality". Stop drinking Nokia's cool aid, this phone has an awful design, and it will have an awful camera, and it looks as cheap as it gets, just like the Nokia 820.
The 8S is more expensive, but the build quality, design, and I'm sure the camera and the screen, are also better. The battery is also bigger. The 8S looks like a good mid-range, and you can get it for 370 USD with shipping on eBay.
pankaj981 says:
I think you dint follow a thing...its cheap hence the cheaper price....think before you comment. No one is taking sides over here...the article says cheapest WP8 and so it is...for the price its giving u everything.
rmichael75 says:
Stop drinking HTC kool aid buddy..
pankaj981 says:
While replying hit the proper reply button
OMG55 says:
I believe this is really to goal of MS/Nokia. Once this happens, could it be possible that the deal the two parties signed contained a purchase clause for Nokia or a clause for Nokia to make Microsoft branded and Nokia branded cell phones?
111san says:
No what the deal requires is for Nokia to sell a certain quantity of WP8 devices...doesnt matter at what price range since MS gets same license fee for each copy of wp8 irrespective of whether the phone is a 700$ 920 or 300$ 620. Elop speciically mentioned during their financial meeting that according to the deal, they need to sell enough phones per quarter that will see them almost matching the250 million $ that MS gives them in he form of wp licenses. That means Nokia and MS envision that Nokia can sell around 10-15 million lumia devices a quarter very soon....hopefully as soon as Q1 2013/
jdefuria says:
Assuming this is coming to the U.S., I take it Verizon will get this handset and the proceed to
1) Discard the main distinguishing feature (the "Dual Shot" interchangable cover), and replace it with a non-replacable black or white cover.
2) Redesign the phone so it's egg shaped.
3) Find 6 places on the phone to slap the hideous logo somewhere on it.
AgentTheGreat says:
You forgot to add "RB" ;)
jjmurphy says:
I'm already thinking about getting this to replace the wife's 900.
Bruno H says:
Is this the replacement for Lumia 710?
710 was a big seller. If the CPU can handle new WP8 games then this could be the next big low-end seller.
pankaj981 says:
Well the CPU is dual core so should be powerful enough but its the GPU that will make the difference, I know the Adreno 225 (i guess it might be the one) is powerful enough to handle current gen mobile gaming...unless you want to play Crysis on it :P (if someone ports it)
lesnjoro says:
Its Adreno 305
znellu says:
The Snapdragon MSM8627 SoC with 1Ghz CPU has a Adreno 305 GPU...
Tense says:
I have the same question. I'd like to upgrade from my current L710 to a similar WP8 model, but I don't want anything "weaker" (for lack of a better word,) then the 710. Nokia choosing to brand it as the 620 makes me skeptical, but I won't assume anything since the 510 and 830 seem to go against their past system.
xekrax says:
Smaller version of Lumia 800. Looks amazing!
Dusteater says:
I might have to get one of these for use overseas since AT&T refuses to unlock my 920.
pnhd says:
so this is cheaper than the 8s, has more memory storage, front facing camera, nfc, detachable battery, different color shells, all the nokia exclusive apps and features.
i wonder now what ther 720 will bring to the table? maybe a 4 inch amoled screen, 8 mp shooter and a cool desgn with the same processor and ram as this 620, or 1 gb ram?
tissotti says:
Yeah i wonder how could it slot between 820 and 620.
Would it use this lower end SoC found from 620 and 8S or the same S4 dual core 1.5ghz + 1GB RAM found from 920, ATIV S etc.
eLseStudio says:
Nokia read my mind! I always wanted a cheaper option for WP8. Now this is the answer! Lumia 920 for my girl, Lumia 620 for me, happy ever after :P
jalb says:
I will follow this one closely. I am wary of the 512 mgs of RAM, but if it runs well and smooth, this might be an affordable way to get back on WP. I have never bought an international phone and tried to use it here in the US, I wonder what all is involved.
anujtwp says:
512 MB RAM is a minimum system requirement of WP8 for WVGA (480x800) displays so this won't be a issue.
haydt1 says:
Damn. I wish this would have come out in the US a month ago. I would have probably gotten this instead of my 820. I prefer the smaller phones.
hoonigandad says:
Wow, its still small, but a great phone for 250$...exchangeable shells and SD support!? Nice, its like my focus flash just better! =)
txaggies07 says:
I want this for my wife. She has been wanting a WP8 that is a bit smaller then the current crop.
lebza77 says:
I am currently using Lumia 710, wondering what 720 will bring on the table. This is turning to be good. 7 out of 14 people in a taxi are usually using Nokia. Some people are going to be silenced big time.
GoodThings2Life says:
I never really felt like cost was a problem for Nokia considering the super-low 920 and 820 pricing, but I do like the smaller form factor... I've heard plenty of comments about wanting a smaller device.
tissotti says:
Lumia 720 from the leaked pics seem to be the smallest of these devices.
cgold1 says:
Remember that in most places carriers separate the cost of service from phone loan repayments. The 920 is $450 and the $820 is ~$400. The $100 dollar price of the 920 is just a downpayment and you payback the loan over the course of the contract, except in the US no major carrier separates the loan repayment from the actual plans so if you own your phone you just grossly overpay.
So I agree in the US there isn't much of a market for low end smartphones because the plans are so overpriced but in many countries a $250 dollar phone is a great deal.
aubreyq says:
I believe T-Mobile has an option where you pay the full price of the phone over the course of the contract, but your monthly usage rate is lower than a fully-subsidized phone. I don't think the other US carriers offer this.
rianext says:
That's cause the carriers subsidise it in the US...in India and a few other Asian countries, there is no carrier subsidising, you have to buy the phone at full cost..not something everbdy is ready to do for a 920...hence the alternative, 620..
krishna6233 says:
Lumia 620 is poor man's 920 :D
saving money for my first LUMIA.. excited :))
mccasive says:
You wouldn't be in this forum if you were poor, you probably will be busily begging for food and clothes from else where. I think it's rather for the budget minded people than for the poor in the real sense.
richard_c says:
As has already been stated this will be in direct competition with the HTC 8S. Even though I really like the design of the 8S the 620 has 8gb of storage and a front facing camera. Also theres all the exclusive nokia apps you get too. Poor HTC, they only have themselves to blame
Forc3 says:
Only 1300 mAh? :/ the 8s has 1700! Ok but theres a FFC in there, more memory and Nokias exclusive apps :)!
MrLunga says:
Someone please help! I would love to know the info on the music that's playing through the video and I am really impressed with how they advertised the 620, I hope we will get it here in South Africa before the US.
bonecrusher says:
My phone just told me this is Gardening by Mike Slott (Lucky 9teen)
Terence_27 says:
Wondering what would be the specifications of Nokia Lumia 720?
I hope instead of the 3.7 inch display of 620 it would be 4 inch, 1300 mah vs 1600 mah, 8gb vs. 16 gb internal memory + m.c. , a 1 gb of ram instead of the 512 ram of 620. And that would be a perfect mid range smartphone, also add wireless charging. Go Nokia
salata says:
Second this. 620 is now my favorite of all Lumias now. 920 to big, 820 to ugly. Wish 720 have spec you wrote and similar design to Lumia 800/900/920/N9. That would be my perfect phone.
poddie says:
Wait.. The 820 is ugly? The Verizon variant is, thanks to the hideous logos and redesign, but the 820 looks great.
rocky 800 says:
nokia smokes all windows phone devices
bilzkh says:
Nokia should put a lot of weight behind marketing and pushing the 620, it can drive up WP's market share considerably
AgentTheGreat says:
Tell me about it. It looks as though companies are mistaken in thinking they have to release phones in the US to be successful. Haven't seen even ONE Windows Phone 8 device in the Middle East, and this region is HUNGRY for Low-end and mid-range devices.
Nokia used to be king here; they have given up. They could easily fill markets like India and all of Middle East, and make piles of money.
jkrc717 says:
A 4 inch, Lumia 920 with removable battery, 16 GB internal, SD card up to 64GB, changeable colors, super thin and super light is a phone that should be made.
Cellus13 says:
If you want it to be thin then it definitely won't have pureview.
Jivko Ianev says:
I am only wondering is 512Mb RAM are enough for WP8 and app? On Nokia 610 WP7.5 with 256Mb some app dont work.
skisagooner says:
I've read somewhere that only very few apps will not be able to run due to the RAM. It shouldn't seem like a big deal, but it's big enough for me to look past this phone.
onggeo says:
THIS! This is what will replace my HTC Trophy. Gonna have to buy a spare batt though. Hopefully they release it here in the Philippines for around 10k-12k by Jan. I wish that they put a 4-inch screen though, lots of wasted bezel space imo
tarzanmarzan says:
I understand if its pricing Is affordable for people off contract, but Is Nokia stretching itself too thin by releasing so many different products? Or is this aggressive line up of choice a good thing?
aubreyq says:
It's a good thing because they're targeting as many markets as possible.
tarzanmarzan says:
Thank you for answering. As long as they continue to make all their products quality and offer support fine by me.
Carlos Duarte1 says:
How a bloody proper sized (4" or thereabouts) non-brick flagship? And you can drop wireless charging!
ejlee072006 says:
No wonder nokia is having a hard time producing the 920.. They kept producing all this lumia all over the world.. The world of WINDOWSPHONE has began!!
lebza77 says:
MrLunga my thoughts exactly, I can't afford contract phones, this or 510, 505 plus current crop will rule the South African market, wait and see.
baandoptager says:
This kicks ass. The best small WP8 device out there now!
ZAEENTECH says:
Lumia 620 versus HTC 8S:
1. Price: $249 vs $384
2. Screen: 3.8" TFT Clear Black WVGA 246 ppi vs 4.0" SLCD WVGA 223 ppi
3. Storage 8 GB vs 4 GB
4. NFC=Yes vs NFC=No
augustofretes says:
Lumia 620 vs HTC 8S:
1. $249 + taxes (and shipping, this won't be sold in the US) vs 370 with shipping.
2. AMOLED (bet you is pentile) vs SLCD.
3. Both support Micro-SD.
4. Cheap plastic peace of crap vs Beautiful design and build quality.
5. Shitty camera (Nokia's cameras have not been good in a while, except the Pureview 808, and the Lumia 920... in low light, because in daylight its kinda shitty) vs Decent Camera.
6. 1300 vs 1700
The build quality alone is enough for the 8S to be a better option. The Lumia 620 is just cheap, that's all.
DanBB1 says:
Clearly you didn't even bother to read the article, and now you are just making things up. I feel bad for HTC owners if they really have such a low self esteem. Apart from battery, none of the agruments for HTC hold.
chatscc says:
bilzkh says:
Well just look at the Ad Duplex numbers, 24% of Windows Phones in use are Lumia 710s and 18% are Lumia 610s. Definitely illustrates that entry/mid-level handsets are integral to driving WP growth, and are in fact forming the core userbase of WP. Makes sense, in this day and age people are very price-conscious, and in many parts of the world carrier contracts are difficult to come by, people simply buy their handsets outright.
That said, I think the Lumia 920 can do fairly well in the Middle East, at least in the UAE and Qatar I know for a fact that Nokia has solid brand recognition. However, the Lumia 620 and 510 (on 7.8) should be pushed aggressively as the ideal mid and low-end options, respectively.
mstrblueskys says:
It looks like the Palm Pixi of Windows Phones!
MathiasVerden says:
When did NOKIA become the Apple of smartphones?
glonq says:
Became Apple in what way? I thought Apple was the Apple of smartphones.
iSingBass says:
I'd really be considering one of these if it was coming to the US. For now I'll continue to wait for my yellow L920 that I ordered at a pretty good bargain.
sdreamer says:
Wow, lots of phones. Feels like Nokia is doing some blitzkreig strategy here, let's flood the market with phones. Not only phones, but they seem to be quality phones. This is what Microsoft needs right now, more handsets to flood the market with their OS on it as the public starts to percieve weaknesses and bordem in what they already have. It'll be good if Nokia can actually get carriers to get this and make this the free phone must get.
johaas says:
Man, that thing is no slouch. Really great price.
iamSherlocked says:
I am wondering the condition of wp haters (droid lovers especially) here in india who complains abt every small small thing!
Here is nokia's answer on you face guys! Goodluck.........
ColleenYoga says:
What is the US carrier?
JamesDax3 says:
It would be a darn shame not to bring this to the States. I'd love to get this for my 12yr old rather then the L710 I was thinking of getting. Would make a nice device for the likes of MetroPCS and Cricket as well.
ymcpa says:
I wonder why it is so thick. It is the same thickness as the 920 without all the technology packed in. They could have dropped a few mm from it. I guess they want to have a common look for their devices.
rmichael75 says:
What is this obsession with thin ness. I hate a thin phone.. very uncomfortable to hold..
The ophone is find as it is asquare.
Also in pictures Nokia phones always look thick than in person. Lumia 900 looks thick but i find it too thin for my liking.
theta orionis says:
Might be too late for my 17 year old daughter who is firmly entrenched in the Apple camp...but a whole generation of younger folks may find this appealing. If the CPU can handle music and gaming, this might be a hit.
Aykazu says:
It would seem that Nokia is doing what they know the best = Flood the market with 10's of new models that varies in shape, size and prize. That was pretty much the concept Nokia used for 20 years and 14 out of those they were the market leader in mobile business.
This kind of devices are the real thing that WP8 needs more than anything else. I hope Nokia will rise once more, afterall they are the most innovative mobile business in the whole industry.
skisagooner says:
Except that keypad candybars, flipphones, sliderphones, portrait QWERTY's, landscape slider QWERTY's, touch and type's have all been eliminated and replaced with pure, touchscreen. When the iPhone came out I was reluctant to change to touchscreen, instead I bought a C5-00, a traditional keypad candybar.
But now with WP8, I'm ready to embrace change!
Really though, they definitely need to come up with a 4.0" 720, and then maybe a 3.5" 520 or a 4.8" 1020, then the WP8 portfolio will be complete.
Once the lineup is complete, refresh the entire lineup all at once after 1-2 years... And get people talking!
go_jev says:
some one please tell abt the availability of lumia 920 and 820 in india :- Nd WTH nokia wants indian's to use there cheap lumia 620 first ( 620 gnna launch first in india )
ihavewp8 says:
People with wp7.5 with 1ghz is still fast and fluid. So I think 620 will still be twice fast and fluid with dual core
Cellus13 says:
Its a nice looking phone. I like it.
crazygonzo says:
The only mistake they made is the release date, WP8 in November 2012 and Lumia in January 2013 is LATE ! should have been available for few months already as it's very important to hook new customers and sell as many Windows devices as fast as they can.
HTC blew it with the 'budget boat' for 8S - 4GB ? at 339 euros and no NFC, they need to drop the price immediately to 229 euro. Lumia 620 wins ! Interested in the upcoming 4" Lumia 720 design, why didn't they introduced it now ? They want to release it in February or what ? soooo slow
noirsoft says:
At that price, I may pick one up, pop in a 64GB MicroSD and make it a dedicated music player to replace my ZuneHD.
Cellus13 says:
Unfortunately it won't be release in the US. Said by Nokia in a tweet :/ oh well next year their could be a Lumia 720.
Kadcidxa says:
Ill trade in my old wp phone for one.
glonq says:
The specs are thoroughly inferior to similarly-priced droids, but mabye the pretty colors will sucker in a few buyers.
Tips_y says:
That's an absolute lie! Androids priced in the range of $250 unlocked are all single-core or old models, without NFC, and without front-facing cameras! On the other hand, the 620 is dual-core and a brand new phone, has NFC and FFC!
rmichael75 says:
It has the HAAS mic as well.
kingraven says:
I love the colors! I want that green on a Lumia 920! One can only hope. I like the idea of low-cost smartphones to reach those that don't care about latest & greatest. Heck, even if my WP device took a dive, I know if I really needed to, I could get a decent handset for cheap without contract. Decent specs on the device.
kurotsuki says:
And after all those nice specs ... it only sport 1300 mAh battery? What a bummer. My Lumia 710 have the very same battery, sports only single core (although it's clocked higher), and it only last half a day for regular usage. So how come a dual core one also using the same battery. I want this Lumia 620 ... but ....... *sulking in dilemma* XD~
Tomasz S. says:
Newer phones may be more energy efficient (through both hardware and firmware improvements), hence no need for a bigger battery.
immovablesoup says:
620 Forum is up! Yay!
isoulsel says:
I like Windows Phone and all, but come on people... Budget devices? Nexus 4. Period. For 50 more dollars, you get a MUCH better phone.
AMERICANRAJ says:
I saw the HTC 8X it's too thin and also the corners get discolored after 2 weeks. I hope you saw the picture posted. Anyway, go Nokia! I have the cyan L900 and want the white 920 or yellow dirty fellow. ha ha.

Lynch, Markey Hit the Road, Republicans Get Started
Nomination papers deadline is Wednesday, Feb. 27.
With only days to go before nomination papers are due in the race for U.S. Senate, last week was a busy one for announced and potential candidates looking to fill the seat left vacant by John Kerry's appointment to Secretary of State. The Republican field lost one prominent candidate, and another generated a bit of controversy. On the Democratic side, Congressmen Edward Markey (D-Malden) and Stephen Lynch (D-South Boston) have been working through their pre-primary debate schedule and campaigning across the state. Democrats Markey and Lynch hit the road Both Democratic candidates hit the road again last week from Pittsfield to Salem, meeting with residents and attending fundraisers. Markey had campaign stops in Taunton, Fall River, Lowell …

what do you think, stick to neutral or cover your boo-boos with these pretty little things?
source and photo cred: paper mag
Man those Brazilians are lucky! I would definately put those band-aids on for absolutely no reason besides the fact that they're cool.
i think these are fun! plus, it's not as if they'll always be covering our knees, since it was only in childhood that i would scrape them up on a daily basis.
My favorite is the black and white striped one, quite fun!
this isn't his first non-traditional collaboration. he also redesigned the McDonald's uniforms in brazil recently.
Have I totally lost my mind, or do I seem to remember period in the late 80s when it was chic to wear neon colored bandaids as accessories? Even if I'm crazy and that never happened, it still makes sense. Anything can be fashion, right?
that's really fun! might make your injury a lot happier and cooler, haha.
Personally I like happy faces better!
A nice patterned band aid on the knee is always a good accessory. haha
Ooh how fun.
Those are so cool! Probably the closest I'll ever get to wearing something by a designer. Nude colored band aids are noticeable anyways, might as well have fun with your injury.
I kinda love them a lot. Camilla, I think it was a real fad. I know in the early 90's I would put colored Band Aids Down the backs of my Doc Martin Boots. Oh lord I can't believe I typed that out loud. Anyway I would totally use those band-aids, I never buy the nude ones anyway always the colorful kid ones.
now these...are pretty darn cool.
I'm going to go to Brazil and climb a tree, jump out of a swing at full height, or maybe just fall over the handlebars of my bike. ;)
I have your lovely blog on my roll... would you like to trade links?
LOL. I will just stick to my spongebob or hello kitty bandaids x)
Wow-very funky!!
thats cool
hey, i've added you to my blog roll if you want to swap links!
that is insane.
Those are fun. I prefer to just not get injuries, though, to being THAT fashionable:))
Ohh! Herchcovitch!! i just LOVE! your closes, shoes, bags, all.
yess brazilians!
I pick those! I always get cartoon band-aids and stick 'em on my boo-boos. They're much more fun.
Herchcovitc band-aids top plain band-aids any day of the week. If I'm going to get all dinged up, I might as well show off my gnarly wounds with cool band-aids!
oh these are such fun! I always wanted sesame street ones and my mom wouldn't get them:(
By the way, you've been TAGGED!
How cool is that???!
Wow! That is insane. I wish we had those here.
Neutrals for sure! But these are fun.
i'm all about pretty band-aids :)
Um, this is awesome (!!!). I would totally fall down on purpose just to have an excuse to make usage of of them. Neat. :]
i probably wouldn't use them but buy them purely on the basis that Alexandre Herchcovitc designed them =]
these are fun.
do you know how much they are?
I would stick to the original bandaids for myself, but these are very cool!
I try to stay away from bringing attention to my injuries so I think I'll stick with the neutral ones. They are fun though!
Add E.R in MySpace!
Not fair! I would totally scrape up my knees just to get my hands on a box :)
i would definitely use those! my favorite bandaids have always been printed ones. i just wonder how much they cost...?
you've been tagged!
Those are awesome. With how often I end up with scrapes I really should get some cute bandages.
Fashion is pain?
wow..those are so cool!!i love the art!!
animal printed are for kinds..and this for us!
I'd certainly go for those.
i would pretend to have a cut to wear theseQ
I'd stick to the neutral ones on me but I'd use these as stickers!
That is amazing I wonder whwer you get these
That's so random. Designers seem to be doing all sorts of collabs nowadays.
Oh I love these! Definitely these over neutral. I'm not the biggest Hello Kiddie fan, but she is on my band-aids and I love them... so I imagine I'd be quite receptive to herchcovitc's designs.
This is amazing, kids have the disney themed ones, so it's only fair...love them!
oh. i have a NEW POST. finally...
damn finals...
love. xo.
ooh love them! i think it's a great idea as it's not like a bandaid can't be seen (they don't exactly camoflage themselves into your skin) so you might as well flaunt it!
Thats such a fun idea!
designer band- aids were made for luxaholics! I would totally wear these over the boring regular skin tone band-aids!! These are fabulous!
Must get them NOW. I love Alexandre Herchcovitc!
i love the concept of brand-aids... BCBG ; )

Somebody's Cold War Is Giving Me Chills
I had never before in my adult life had such a length of uninterrupted time to do what I wanted during the day, without work, or anyone actively clinging to my person/relieving themselves in my vicinity. (Aside from the hobos, I mean.) It was like an episode of The Hills, only without all the backstabbing and leggings and vacant staring. Oodles of time for a pedicure! Massage! Brunch! Cozying up with a good book at a tiny book shop! Lazily strolling the aisles of Trader Joe's! And, uh, learning that the opening lyrics to Weezer's "Say It Ain't So" are "Somebody's Heine' is crowdin' my icebox/Somebody's cold one is givin' me chills." And not... "Somebody's hiding; trolling the baseboards/Somebody's Cold War is giving me chills." (Arguably, the last one is something I could've learned anytime, but it's still valuable information. And IT BLEW MY MIND, sadly.)
Of course, life must balance itself out, and so what followed my relaxing time of magical relaxation, naturally, is that J had to go to Vegas this week for a long-ass trip. Now, I know what you're thinking, and that is "naked hooker orgies!" but unless the many documents he carried with him are all part of an ingenious and elaborate ruse, it seems that things will be all business, and he shall be steering clear of the naked hooker orgies. OSTENSIBLY.
In other news, my (Mostly) Fictional People Who Need To Get Punched In The Neck list has inducted three new members this week:
This guy:
Gisele Bündchen for this article (and I hasten to point out, my ire is NOT for her approach to childbirth, but for her being such a giant, sanctimonious douche. I mean, of course you should describe your own experience, but in so doing, don't not-so-subtly tick off a list of things that you didn't experience, when YOU KNOW such things are icky and painy and, well, pretty commonplace in nearly every single delivery, no matter what method).
And finally, Smuggy McLoosepants:
I've vented about her ad nauseam on Twitter, but you guys, her failure to effectively communicate with her poor tailor -- who's just trying to do her job, MY GOD -- makes me insane. Her smugness is obviously an issue, but coupled with that is her mystifying inability to: (a) simply say "I lost weight. Take in these here fatpants;" and (b) tack on the clarifying term "yogurt" when listing the dessert-y stuff she's been eating. Like that's Just A Totally Normal Thing That People Do When Talking About Their Creepy Yogurt Diet; they say the flavor, neglecting to mention what in the hell it is they're actually eating. I'M SO SURE, Smuggy McLoosepants.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to go eat lemon. SMUGLY. While I'm doing that, feel free to add on to the (Mostly) Fictional People Who Need To Get Punched In The Neck list. A little venting is good for the soul!

next halloween I have the perfect costume for my boyfriend... that guy!
he'll have to be all "yea i'm dress as some dbag from a blog my girlfriend saw" but it's totally worth it. - 10:45 PM
- TUWABVB said...
I cannot stand those yogurt commercials. And the one where the wife chastises the husband for doing the very thing that she does when he's on the phone with his friend? Can you day "double standard" (even though I think it's another actress).
How does "I was outside now I'm inside" clear up the argument? ARGH! - 10:51 PM
- kara said...
Uh, are you a Bachelor watcher? I'm actually pretty embarrassed to say that I am watching, since I had successfully avoided it from the first season until now. But anyway, if you are, then you'll understand that VIENNA NEEDS TO BE ON THE LIST!!! She is too horrifying for words to adequately describe.
- Ladybug's Picnic said...
Oh Gisele. And people are BUYING IT. And a (very reliable) little bird here in Boston told me that her yoga-water-om-shanti-non-hurty-homebirth was also attended by an OB-GYN and several nurses.
- brandi said...
I never knew those lyrics either! At least "trolling the baseboards" makes a smidgen of sense, unlike my interpretation, "drowning my eyespots", which is not only not the lyrics but also not a thing at all.
I hate that yogurt lady. HATE HATE HATE. - 10:54 PM
- Nothing But Bonfires said...
I TOTALLY thought it was "Somebody's Cold War is giving me chills." In fact, when I saw the title of this post in my reader, I was like "Oh! Metalia has been listening to that Weezer song!"
- Blythe said...
My theory: her PR person is an aspiring fiction writer who has spent the last few years writing releases that say "I eat bacon-sprinkled cupcakes for breakfast every day and don't gain an ounce!" and is just using the birth of Gisele's child to take it to the next level.
- MadameQueen said...
Totally needing to be stabbed in the neck? Flo from the Progressive commercials. She was cute at first, but now she's just annoying.
and that guy in your first picture? The text says "The Momen" (the "t" is cut off) and I totally thought that was some new term like metrosexual -- like a combination of man and woman. - 8:28 AM
- Lawyerish said...
I hate that yogurt chick with the fire of a thousand suns.
I also think that every person in every Cadillac person should be punched in the neck. They're so SMUG even though it's just a stupid CAR.
I will also agree with Kara that Vienna on The Bachelor could use a good neck-punch. She is GROSS. - 9:45 AM
- ellbee said...
Really? Does no one want to punch Ali in the neck as well? Vienna's a psychopath, true, but Ali's just a Fakey McJerkerson hag! (Wow. she apparently pisses me RIGHT off.)
I used to think that Dido's "White Flag" song said: "I won't poke my eyes out and surrender", which, good? Me neither? As it turns out, it's the eminently more sensible "I won't put my hands up and surrender" and that just makes me feel better about the whole thing. - 9:55 AM
- oceansandmountains said...
There's a song by Gary Barlow, who you probably don't know because he is a member of the English boy band, Take That and they never 'made it' over here to my knowledge. Anyway, he has a song called 'Open Road' that has lyrics that are something like "now I just keep on walking down that open road" and up until a year or so ago I was CERTAIN that he was saying "I just keep on walking down that toblerone". Which makes zero sense but sounds fun. And makes me crave some chocolate.
The smugly yogurt lady absolutely needs that punch in the neck, I can't stand her! - 10:03 AM
- missris said...
Yeah, right, childbirth didn't hurt at all and the hardest part was picking the baby's name? I'd like some of what she's smoking in case I ever decided to have a kid. I bet next she's going to say she just keeps thin by running after her kids...right.
- Hip Hip Gin Gin said...
Instead of nominating someone else for the list I think I'd just like to punch Gisele in the neck twice!
- Kristabella said...
I hate that yogurt lady! All those stupid yogurt commercials. And mostly it is because I hate yogurt and yogurt is NOT pie!
There are so many things that make me ragey and I can't think of one right now. I will have to come back! - 12:48 PM
- lowermainlandmom said...
Metalia, your post made me laugh out loud! But just as funny are the great comments. You have a great blog, and great followers! I include myself in that list, even though it is tooting my own horn :).
- Ailis said...
Ugh. Not only is she a beautiful model but now she has to rub *this* in people's faces? I don't care what she writes, I don't believe it. I triple-punch her in the neck as well. I live in a large city as well but not NY and would also punch in the neck people who drive gigundo SUVs like the Escalade. It is entirely unnecessary to have a vehicle of that size in the city, besides which you can't even use it off-road, if that is the reason you wanted it (for your country home, of course.)
- Torrie said...
My perfect day would be hanging out with you, and shopping for clothes while we discussed pop culture.
- auntie said...
i'm with Kristabella: no amount of cutesy commercials can convince me that eating chocolate parfait YOGURT is the same as eating A CHOCOLATE PARFAIT!!
i'm also on board with at least a double neck-punching for Flo and those stupid cavemen.
*ha! my word verification was "bashy". could only have been better if it was actually "neck punch" :) - 3:34 PM
- KT said...
I haaate that smug yogurt lady. I hate that entire campaign actually (the other one? Where she's on the phone and her husband is searching the fridge for the yummy desserts she's describing? Because apparently all men are stupid? Drives me nuts). It's right up there with those ads a few years ago for the truck that changed into an SUV & the guy said "maybe we should change before picking up the girls" so his friend starts changing his clothes; which you would. But the guy actually meant the car - as though that's just something people SAY: HATE.
- Leezie said...
PLUS, did you see this? made me SO angry! "Gisele Wore 'Almost the Same Clothes' When She Was Pregnant"
http://nymag.com/daily/fashion/2010/02/gisele_wore_almost_the_same_cl.html#ixzz0ebV3BhR2 - 4:12 PM

The RFS Blog Awards are back! Get your nominations in
- Jess said...
I was able to cope with "that guy" until I got to the ankles/feet. And then it was all, yeah, kind of want to beat the shit out of him now.
And Gisele? She probably gave birth to a five pound, tiny-headed child after an hour of contractions and two pushes. Because had she pushed out a nine-pound kid after 27 hours of labor? She'd still be at home weeping at the fact that she'll have hemorhoids for the rest of her life. Let me smack her in the head. Repeatedly.
(I'm 35 weeks pregnant with my third kid...I kind of want to beat the shit out of everyone anyway) - 6:03 PM
- Dr. Maureen said...
I hate that yogurt lady SO MUCH. 'I was outside? And then I came in. So... in." THAT DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE.
I also the Glade lady who seems to think there are "fancy" candles and "cheap" candles and that anyone gives a rat's ass. Hate. - 8:07 PM
- Kerri Anne said...
Trolling The Baseboards would be an awesome band name.
And that mustached half-leg-crossed, flood-pants-wearing girl of a man is making me laugh so hard right now. - 8:18 PM

how did I miss that on Twitter...because OH MY GOD that stupid-ass smug lady...HATE HATE HATE. "no in" "no in" I'm all screaming at my tv "say it again bitch and I'll cut your ass!"
Gisele's a turd. She's made bitchy comments in the past and blamed it on the fact that Brazilians are less uptight and feelings-y than Americans, or something, so she definitely gets a neck-punch two-fer.
I can't believe people are peeved about this yogurt lady and have forgotten the previous generation! "This is taking off this ugly bridesmaid's dress good." "Punching the bride for making us wear them good!" "Hooking up with the best man good!" Yogurt is not now, nor has it ever been orgasmic, so dear ad agencies, stop with the outrageous misrepresentations. Go smaller. It's more believable and less annoying.
My nominee, though not a character, per se: whoever decided, on the little wax paper that covers the sticky side of Always wings, to print "have a happy period." Get run over by a car, dude. Maybe your replacement will be a woman who wouldn't write something so profoundly stupid.
Also, the obvious. Every now and then, there's something good on Oxygen. But the promos for their "reality" shows, specifically "Bad Girls' Club?" When I'm queen, there will be no profiting from encouraging women to behave horribly and reflect poorly on their entire gender. Hate Oxygen for that. (And Bravo, for the "Housewives." Really, any show publicizing immaturity and lousy behavior. No wonder people think Americans are ill-mannered maroons.) - 7:25 AM

Ok...I feel like an ass because I think the yogurt lady is funny! But Gisele. Listen, I had a scheduled C section because my baby was frank breach (you know, they can't come out butt first...that's not so good). I had acupuncture, I went to the chiropractor, I was on all fours upside down on an ironing board (yes, for reals) and I couldn't get him to move. Just because she was lucky enough that her baby was in the right position doesn't mean she gets to try and make me feel like a bad mother. I totally value people choosing natural childbirth, but don't make people feel shitty because they do something different than you. I kind of what to punch that guy from Allstate commercials in the neck....I don't like the way he talks to me...he reminds me of men who talk to women like they are stupid. I don't like him....

I'm a little late to the neck-punching party, but I would like to add people who drive across multiple rows of parking spaces to the list of people who need to be punched in the neck.
I was at the mall this morning and I parked waaaaaay out so that I could maximize the amount of walking I was going to get on the way to return a Christmas present (yes, I am a procrastinator). As I'm walking out, this woman drives within 10 feet of me, diagonally across 4 or so rows of parking spaces and then pulls into a spot like it was her friggin' garage. Oh, and did I mention I was pushing a stroller with my kid in it? And when I did the "what the hell?!" gesture at me, she had the balls to stare at me as though I was the one in the wrong? Neck punch! - 2:09 PM

Now I'm waiting for a post about all the cheese and seafood you're gorging on while J's in Vegas.

Oh so true. Here's the thing: It's probably MUCH more helpful to feel sorry for a woman who has to wake up and make pancakes for others ('cause she's surely not eating them!) the morning after giving birth. Pity.
And another thing. What a giant D-bag for making statements about an easy recovery time when you OBVIOUSLY have FULL-TIME baby nurse(s). - 1:27 PM

Just have fun
Like (0)
I don't know why people take this game so seriously. Who cares about fictional stats that mean nothing in the real world. I gave up on these stats because you have to realise its just a game. I don't care if people think the guns I am using are noobish or if I'm trash because I have a low kdr. I bought this game for fun therefore why not? Now using whatever I want and I don't care if people think the guns are trash. My question to them is why don't you just have fun and not take this game so seriously? RANT OVER
I really hate it when people start talking trash... I just toggle mute them lol. But i guess some people live to play or just hotheads. It really makes the game unenjoyable sometimes though. Its like you killed their dog or something. Also could just be game strategy , but its a sucky one lol I feel you!
I tried a different class once in a ranked game and was experimenting with the FAD. I went positve, but got a PM "YOU SUCK". go figure
I didn't reply, just felt WTF where did that come from?
Yeah I unlocked the fad when I first prestiged and used it for a long while, but have stopped for the most part. It's been a week since I played but I think I still have one on my overkill class with a shotgun. NOt sure if I wanna still use it, kinda been hit and miss with it latley.
Definitely try it again. Your story is a lot like mine and I have kicked myself for wasting a token on the FAD when it was so inconsistent. Post August buff, the consensus is that this gun is finally up there with the better ARs.
Agreed MW3 can provide hours of fun when approached with the right attitude I love playing alongside my mrs who you can always bring you back to the reality of it just being a video game when even after a couple of BS deaths on the trot will still shout out "Wooot wooot" when her betty gets someone.
First of all, good for you that you don't care about stats or performance or whatever, and just play the game to have fun. I personally have no problem with that, and I couldn't care less about how "good" you are at the game...
That said, you shouldn't have a problem with people who DO pay attention to their stats either. It's called being competitive and it's not a bad thing. I'm spending days of my life playing this this game. When you think about it, it's actually super repetitive. So it makes sense that one of the main reasons I play, is to improve. I want to see my k/d ratio go up... I want to see my w/l ratio go up... Etc etc...
I mean it's like saying, "Why do casual basketball players, or chess players, or golfers or whatever try to win games and improve upon their individual numbers? It doesn't mean anything in real life after all". It's competitiveness and it's self improvement. Yes it's just a video game that has very few implications in real life, but you could say that about a whole lot of things in life?
I mean, if your issue is entirely the fact that you don't like people talking trash to you when you're not "trying" or whatever, then that's fine. But if you're complaining in general about people who strive to get better at the game... then I think it might be time to reexamine some elements of your personal constitution there.
I love to win but really who doesn't? But .... Thats not as important as having fun! I have been playing COD since the very first one (on PC) and not untill I bought Black Ops on PS3 have I ever heard so much trash talk! I don't care about my stats, I mean yes I like to go positive but if I don't, no biggie. I have had more than one message calling me everything you could imagine. I had one guy get so mad because I took his gun and camp spot and wore his azz out he actually started sending me messages with serious threats! I wasn't too worried ... He probably couldn't get permission from mommy to come after me anyway lol
LOL too funny OffTheEdge . I get that all the time too and its usually in the middle of the match I feel like saying to them why dont you play the game instead of messaging me trash.. I agree on both accounts, I love to win but if i dont then better luck next time!! Its a good laugh once and awhile
I am all about the challenges while I play. I get alot of satisfaction out of filling up all the challenges for the weapons, and prestiging just to come back and fill them up again. Some of them are contrary to my playing style so I die alot as well. Sniping and prone shots for me demand camping, so I camp. When all is said and done I have had fun though.
i play mw3 for fun i could careless about my stats it fun mess other people stats till they rage quit
If you have a high KD or Win Ratio, that is fine, I want to raise my KD ration and constantly look for ways to get better, ... BUT one thing i will not do is trash talk another player, no matter how good or bad they may be .......EVERYONE sucked at these games at one time most when they started playing it for the first time..... So trash talking is cheap ..... I think the stats do cause a lot of this, ... That is where the mute feature is handy. just mute them or block them all together... just dont fall victim to the trash talk and try not to out do the trash talker by talking trash back, he or she probally has a comeback for whatever you are going to say.....but when you say nothing .....they have less and less to say ......My Normal response to them is now ...."Have a good day Idiot you are now muted" ..... sometimes i dont mute them and just listen the trash talk stops if they think i cant hear it LOL
Find People and Clans that you fit in with......... Our clan has Members who have high KDs and LOW KDs ...... as the clan leader i tell them the one thing i will not allow is trash talking other clan members or other players in general, do so and you will get kicked from the clan no matter how good you are ........ and i have booted a few out for this.....
What's your clan name Out?
I am going to look you up Is it just outkast? Whats the lvl ..
Yes Clan Name is OutKast
My Gamer name is Outkast-Dlow
we have 21 members in our clan,
clan level is 28, will be 29 after todays clan challenge is over
The only thing we require is you have a mic or headset, and you must meet the core group of our clan, ... we do this just to make sure you are going to fit in with us ..... We are 95% from the south, all country boys or i should say men and women, sonce we range in age from the mid 30s to 50 .....we do have a couple of early 20 members ...... we dont trash talk .......we will defend ourselves tho at times...LOL, but our goal in the clan is have fun, joke around and level up
I will take alook! It's either me or my wife playing lol and I am in my 30's :) sounds fun to have everyone over 19 no offense to anyone lol
I've always played COD games for fun, not too bothered about stats that much.
I do like to win games and go positive but I've always played solo, and it's quite hard to go positive on wins and K/D ratio when everybody on my team runs off in different directions, lol. Especially when facing clans or parties who are well organised. I usually back out of lobbies with parties or clans before game starts now.
If everyone is fed up of trash talk just mute them. I do in every game.
If fed up of getting messages just go into account settings on PS3 and alter settings to recieve messages from friends only. That's what I did when I used to get game invites from strangers on BLOPS. Nobody can ever message me now. Less stress. lol.
We are all humans and competitive, its natural. Some play for pure enjoyment while others play for that competitive feel and feel that they have to improve to get enjoyment. .

As the only name on the ballot, Assemblyman Ricardo Lara, D-Bell Gardens, was virtually assured a victory in the 33rd Senate District before voting even began.
With 100 percent of the 379 precincts reporting, Lara had 80.5 percent of the vote early Wednesday. His write-in opponent, Peace and Freedom candidate Lee Chauser, a teacher, had 19.5 percent.
The district includes Long Beach, Signal Hill and part of Lakewood and Paramount, along with Commerce, Cudahy, Bell, Bell Gardens, Lynwood, Maywood, South Gate, Vernon, Walnut Park and Huntington Park.
Lara didn't face a major party candidate after Assemblywoman Bonnie Lowenthal, D-Long Beach, dropped out in favor of seeking a final term for her seat following Lara's entry into the race late last year.
The move was seen as an acquiescence to political realities. Lara, an openly gay Latino, was endorsed early on by the California Latino Legislative Caucus, and 48.7 percent of households in the 33rd District are Latino.
Lara's priorities in his state Senate run include improving education, promoting civil rights, more government transparency, more jobs for working families and protecting the environment.

Badger State Games will end after 25 years
Started in 1985 to re-create the Olympic experience for citizen athletes, the Badger State Games has reached its own finish line.
The nonprofit Wisconsin Sports Development Corporation announced Tuesday it would drop the games it organized for both winter and summer sports.
"It is time to yield to market forces beyond our control and explore new ways to serve the sports marketplace for the benefit of the state of Wisconsin," the WSDC interim president and CEO Dan Doyle said.
Participation in the games has dropped in recent years, revenue also declined and the WSDC has reduced its staff and budget in response to budget issues.
Competition from other races and tournaments - particularly in youth hockey and soccer - have hurt the Badger State Games.
In a telephone conference Tuesday afternoon, Doyle reported that roughly 20,000 people participated in the games annually in the late 1990s. That number dwindled to roughly 5,000 in the 2011 versions of the winter and summer games.
Financially, the corporation that organizes and promotes the games lost nearly $50,000 in the fiscal year ending July 31, 2010, the second year in which expenses exceeded revenues. According to its federal tax filing, the corporation had debts that exceeded its assets by nearly $8,000.
The Madison-based corporation estimated that 350,000 athletes have participated in the games over the 25 years, in everything from curling, archery, Nordic skiing and ski-jumping to tennis and soccer.
(My own in the Badger State Games experiences include a sweltering hot mountain bike race at the Blackhawk Ski Area, and a frosty cross-country ski race in subzero temps at the Nine Mile Recreation area in Wausau. I have the medals as reminders. Please share your memories via email to firstname.lastname@example.com, or in the comments section.)
"We are very proud of our accomplishments over the years," Doyle said. "The games have supported dozens of sports and have fostered an environment in Wisconsin where athletes now have a wealth of opportunities to participate and compete."
Questions about the sustainability of the Badger State Games started several years ago. The Wausau/Central Wisconsin Convention and Visitors Bureau stopped providing roughly $100,000 in support to host the winter games in Wausau.
Contributions from sponsors also dropped off.
According to the announcement, the event hosts in Wausau and the Fox Cities will consider reviving the games in some form.
Doyle said decisions on the future mission of the WSDC would be decided in the next three to six months. One option at the top of the list includes creation of a sports authority to organize major sporting events, including NCAA Div. III championships, he said.
The financial position of the non-profit requires a quick decision.
The WSDC also said it would try to sell or transfer ownership of the Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame.
The physical recognition of sports luminaries is the Walk of Fame, which features plaques of Wisconsin athletes, located along N. 4th St. adjacent to the U.S. Cellular Arena.
Franklyn Gimbel, chair of the Wisconsin Center District, which owns and operates the U.S. Cellular Arena, said the Walk of Fame isn't going anywhere.
"We think we should have the Hall of Fame," Gimbel said Tuesday., "We've invested $750,000 to create the Walk of Fame. And I hope there would be some method of reviving the whole notion of the Hall of Fame. It has value."
Gimbel said the district was not looking to spend money on the Walk of Fame and the annual dinner. "We would be looking for some managing group to take it over and run it," he said.

I am crying Tom. I have participated in the XC Ski races in every BSG
since inception. You could see this coming on the Winter Games side with
total entries in XC events dropping from a high of over 1700, to around
700 or so total last year.
They always ran a quality event, it is very sad it can't continue.linkslvr Aug 02, 2011 11:02 AM
While I don't disagree with you philosophically, vegaspacker, this is not
really the place for your comment.linkslvr Aug 02, 2011 11:22 AM
Lets tie vegas comment with the subject of the article. People don't participate in things like the BSG if they can't afford to because they don't have a job. Simple concept, isn't it?
Chequamegon Aug 02, 2011 11:36 AM
1. The Badger State Games will be missed. I never played in the soccer tournament, nor did my kids, but I did participate in the shooting and wrestling competitions several times. They did run great events that brought people together from many different areas or specialty schools.
2. vegaspacker should re-pack his or her backside with the cra* written above. Vegaspacker might hate Governor Walker--I dislike many current and past politicians, but I also know that some stories and some places should escape the from partisan BS.OverTheHillSoccerDad Aug 02, 2011 11:42 AM
I am in favor of blaming politicians here. BSG have been dying for 10 years, so blame Doyle. That was fun!

The BSWG always offered quality events with many dedicated volunteers,
but IMO they priced themselves into declining enrollment.
If you are in the medal running, it was sure worth it, but if not, why not ski
an event like the Hinderbinder instead? The every weekend racers are going
to hit them both, but the occasional racer may skip the BSG.I happy dirt Aug 02, 2011 12:16 PM
I find it kind of interesting that they say the youth hockey & soccer tournaments provide a conflict of some sort. My son's youth organization always left BSG weekend open making the assumption that the teams would try to get into BSG. I know my women's organization has done the same in the past as well. Many times, the youth were unable to get into the tournament and then ended up with a weekend without competition.

Cheqaumegon and Vegaspacker:

worse than a whiny looser in sports. You two just come across way too
whiny. The logical jump that Walker caused this to close and that it is the
governments job to ensure you have a personal budget for entering sports
events is ridiculous. We all have to make choices in how we spend our
In my poorest flat broke out of work days, I still made calls on how I
spent my cash and found ways to participated in races.
I am not thrilled with Walker, but you guys are so much worse. Don't
blame everything on Walker. Grow up and run your life. Expect others to
do the same. The government can't solve all problems for all people.jimmyv65 Aug 02, 2011 12:19 PM

Carrying the torch of the original Planet Eclipse Geo, the Planet Eclipse Geo2 has proved to be huge success. Teams and players across the world have been drawn to the supremely smooth and quiet operation of the marker, while the rugged reliability and simple maintenance make it a true Eclipse product. Now, the Planet Eclipse Geo2.1 brings some of the critically acclaimed features of the recent Planet Eclipse Ego11 to the Planet Eclipse Geo. Namely the New POPS ASA and the Angled Swivel on the SL3 regulator.These 2 new additions further improve the already exceptional ergonomics of the Planet Eclipse Geo2 as well as producing a sleeker and more attractive profile. Of course all the other characteristics of the Planet Eclipse Geo2 remain, such as its excellent handling of fragile paint and the fully featured and E-Portal compatible electronics. This is still Planet Eclipse Geo. Just Refined...
Key Features
- The Propsaft Assembly has been redesigned and now has a spring loaded drive core. The drive core prevents air loss in both the firing stroke of the bolt and on the return stroke of the bolt. this results in not only a more efficient paintball gun but faster recharge of the valve chamber. They have also added fins to the tip of the propsaft to keep the bolt and propsaft concentric at all times.
-The SL3 regulator is more consistent, has less creep, and more accurate than any previous Planet Eclipse regulator. It will also allow the planet Eclipse Geo to work with any high, mid, or low pressure tank on the market without fluctuation in performance. You can even switch from a high pressure tank to a low pressure tank without any ill effects.
-The Shaft 4 Barrel has been developed to improve consistency and efficiency. they have made the rear bore longer and as a result you get a higher velocity than the older shaft barrels with the same paintball gun and same settings. All of this and they were still able to lower the sound signature.
-After the success of the GST kit for the original Eclipse Geo they have decided to give the Eclipse Geo 2 the same treatment. The GST bolt and GST can now work with the drive core to reduce the sound signature and recoil making the eclipse Geo 2 silky smooth and quiet.
-The new eclipse circuit board has a 92% larger screen with adjustable backlight color. Planet Eclipse has also optimized the accuracy of Dwell and Rate Of Fire control. They have kept the option to use a micro switch or opto switch but redesigned the GUI (Graphical user Interface). You can also use the Eclipse E-Portal to connect your marker to your PC.

MOUNT PLEASANT – Central Methodist (Mo.) University broke a stalemate with a penalty kick for its first goal, and Iowa Wesleyan College was unable to come back in a 2-0 loss to the Eagles Saturday afternoon at East Lake Park.
The Tigers went scoreless in seven shots on goal and dropped to 1-5 on the season. CMU improved to 2-1 this year and defeated Wesleyan for the second straight season.
The Eagles scored late in the first half after being awarded a penalty kick following a foul against IWC inside the box. Pat McVey converted the kick at the 34:57 mark and Central Methodist went into halftime with a 1-0 lead.
The Tigers put on an offensive push at times in the second half, putting six shots on goal against CMU keeper Corey Schelle. Wesleyan was unable to convert, though, and the Eagles increased the lead to 2-0 in the 78th minute on an unassisted goal by Thyago Catharino.
Central Methodist held a 12-9 advantage in shots, while IWC had a 7-6 advantage in shots on net. Michael Roberts (Sr.-St. John's, Antigua) led the Tigers with four shots on goal. Goalkeeper Troy Osborne (So.-Sydney, Australia) made three saves for IWC.
Iowa Wesleyan is home again on Tuesday when it faces Rockford (Ill.) College at 4 p.m. at East Lake Park.

The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 is the most compact, modular and fieldbus-independent I/O system for decentralized automation.
Pluggable I/O Modules: For certain applications, a pre-wiring of components, independent of the electronics, is appropriate.
Consequently executed decentralized automation ends closely at the machine - frequently so close that there is no room for a protective cabinet or enclosure. WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 755 was designed for those conditions.
The IP67 Fieldbus system does not offer in every situation the flexibility and cost-effectiveness which would allow the user to achieve a consistent change-over from the IP20 to the IP67 automation system. In such cases, Sensor/actuator boxes are a real alternative.
WAGO-I/O-IPC (758 Series)
WAGO-I/O-IPC, compact industrial PC. The IPC is a cost-effective industrial compact PC solution for real time control applications. Despite its compact design, the IPC integrates all standard PC functions, including network and fieldbus interfaces, for local and remote control applications.
I/O Software (759 Series)
Software. Maintenance/programming software and WAGO-TOPLON® for building automation.
WAGO SPEEDWAY 767 is a modular, IP67-rated I/O system which is ideal for applications in harsh environment conditions.
Interface Modules
Besides pluggable function and interface modules, slim relays and optocouplers, as well as modern switch mode power supplies, WAGO also offers interface modules in different versions.
Overvoltage protection
Enhance reliability. Used to protect other electrical equipment and systems against excess overvoltage and to generate equipotential bonding.
Power supplies
With primary switch mode power supply units, constant voltage sources, power supply and back-up capacitor modules, WAGO offers a comprehensive range of power supply units for a wide range of applications.
