Facebook Home updated with folders, widgets coming next


Facebook Home updated with folders, widgets coming next

Facebook is busy pushing another round of updates out today for their standard app, as well as the somewhat useful Facebook Home launcher. The update for Home will bring the option for users to enjoy folders for their apps. Which can then be used in the app tray, or on the newly added dock so we can access apps and such like a smartphone should, instead of being merely a social networking device.

When Facebook Home first launched many were excited about it, but the lack of overall phone features we?re all used to was a big problem. They?ve since added the standard bottom dock for phone, messenger, or whatever apps you use the most. And now today have added folder support, something we?ve had on regular Android for a long time.

Simply drag an app on top of another and you?ll instantly be able to start a folder. This way users can group social apps, games, or whatever else into neat organized folders. Something that should make using Facebook Home even easier. Interestingly enough, while the changelog on the Play Store doesn?t mention it our Facebook rep mentioned the next feature they?re planning is widget support.

Sadly months after launch I still can?t try these feature on my Galaxy S4, as it isn?t officially supported, but if you?ve got a capable device give it a try from the download below. Then the regular Facebook app was also updated. We have sharing of stories into private messages, new swipe features to open chats, and for those still on Gingerbread they finally added the option to put Facebook on your SD card. That?s only about 2 years late.

Let us know if you?re participating in the Facebook app beta, and if you notice anything exciting. In the meantime, get the new Home below.

Severe storms bring tornado warning, lightning, but no relief

Severe storms brought little relief to the first five-day heat wave in three years Sunday.

The National Weather Service issued a brief tornado warning in the area of Pelham, Mass., and severe thunderstorm warnings were issued for areas south and west of Worcester during the afternoon.

Another day of blistering temperatures prompted the National Weather Service to issue another heat advisory.

Track storms with interactive radar

Heat indexes reached around 100 degrees.?While conditions were slightly less stressful than the past four days, temperatures reached into the 90s for the fifth day in a row.

Several lightning strikes were reported across the state including Northbridge and Palmer.

Kingston firefighters responded to a house fire on Round Hill Road for an initial report of a lightning strike, but they were still investigating the exact cause.

Marine warnings were also issued for the waters east of Plymouth.

Storm Team 5 meteorologist Mike Wankum said it is our second official heat wave of the summer of 2013.

?The pace of 90-plus days is very similar to the summer of 2010. That year we ended with a near record-setting 25 days above 90,? Wankum said.

Recreation & Sport: The Joy of Fly Fishing in New Brunswick

hotThe drive to Chipman seemed like it was going to be a foggy one but the fog was always just up the road ahead and by the time we reached the Canaan river the fog as gone. It was still cloudy though.

It was good to have the cloud cover as there was no wind at all. That only lasted a short while and then the sky was clear of clouds other than what you see when a plane flies overhead.

Once I saw the clouds disappearing it was time to pour on the sunscreen. I came home with only one tiny spot I missed that was burned. It's that little spot the gets burned when your shirt sleeves move up and down your arm.

It was one of those days when the wind was truly a welcome friend, even though it has a tendency to turn off those top water fish which are my favourite kind of fish. It also pushes off the spots we want to fish so we either have to use the anchor or the trolling motor.

The trolling motor is fun but this day it seemed to NOT be getting any power even though the power was there. So I was anchor detail for the rest of the day. But that was good as it was Casey that seemed to be doing most of the catching.

fishing spotI'm getting ahead of myself. First we stopped at a location we pass every time we go to Chipman. I have fished this area from my float tube so I've never gone very far from the bridge and never had any luck there.

We stopped and walked down to the launch which is normally blocked with downed trees and debris that gets blown onto the short. It's usually so bad that you would never be able to launch anything more than a canoe, kayak or float tube.

new spotWhen I fished with the float tube there was usually about four of us but never saw any action and would quickly pack up and head elsewhere.

We were so impressed with just how clean this spot was that we had to at least give this spot a try so Casey backed the boat down and in a few minutes we were fishing for pickerel.

There weren't many weeds here yet but we figured there would be pickerel here and headed out to give it a go.

Who Ever Cleaned This Spot Up Needs A Thank You

fat pickerelI have never had a good feeling about this spot but was excitedly anticipating a day where the pickerel would be jumping over each other to get to our offerings.

Sadly that wasn't to be.

It was a couple of hours before anything at all and then it was Casey with a fat chub. We then fished for another hour and it was again Casey but this time he landed a nice fat 21" pickerel.

That was it? Nothing else even looked at our bait.?

I'm not sure what it is about that location. Maybe later in the season when it's really thick with weeds we'll have to give it another try. But now it was time to get out of there and head to Chipman.

Wouldn't Want My Hand Caught In There

The fog that was over head making it look cloudy soon burned off and the few clouds that remained didn't stick around for long. Once the fog burned off the wind picked up but I didn't get upset with the wind because it was getting hotter by the minute and the breeze made it easier to handle.

meI'll admit I'm a top water guy and I'm always happier when I can fish top water baits and see the action. When it's as hot as it was I accept the wind and adjust.

This trip I was prepared with my new wide brimmed hat. It's not quite a sombrero but close and it kept the direct sun off my tender head.

The fishing was tough and the fish were acting very strange. Maybe the barometric pressure was squishing there head and messing with their vision because they sure were coming up short on the strikes. I think they needed glasses.

At the end of the day we both had 7 fish. The two biggest was Casey's 24" pickerel and my 23 1/2" pickerel.
