I called them last thursday,and all I was told is to wait then he asked for my number of which I gave..am getting tired,I blieve there should just tell us if there's nothing for we Nigerians as am losing interest already.

Am beginning to believe that there's no scholarship for we Nigerians this year especially the undergraduate just like last year..no post graduate student has been called for interview talk less of we undergraduate applicants.and they were in Ghana and some africa countries but failed to visit us.all u get if u call them is for we to be patient,but for how long?!....

Madrid (CNN) -- A high-speed passenger
train derailed as it hurtled around a curve
in northwestern Spain on Wednesday, killing
77 people and injuring more than 100,
officials said.
By Thursday morning, the death toll had
reached 77, said María Pardo Ríos,
spokeswoman for the Galicia regional
supreme court. In Spain, judges are often
called out to the scenes of fatalities.
Pictures of the scene showed a train car
snapped in two and another car on fire.
Rescue crews and fellow passengers pulled
out bodies through broken windows and
pried open doors as stunned survivors
looked on. Police escorted bloodied
passengers from the wreckage.
More than 20 injured victims remained in
critical condition early Thursday, said
Agustin Hernandez Fernandez of the
Galicia infrastructure ministry.
State railway Renfe said the train crashed
on a curve several kilometers from the train
station in the city of Santiago de
Compostela.
The train had 218 passengers aboard
and was nearing the end of a six-hour
trip from Madrid to the town of
Ferrol in northwest Spain when it
derailed at 8:41 p.m., the railway said.
It was unclear how fast the train was
traveling when it crashed. The train
was capable of going up to 250
kilometers per hour (155 mph), the
chief spokesman for Renfe said.
Residents who lived near the tracks
told the Voz de Galicia newspaper
that they heard a thunderous bang
when the train crashed. Many of
them rushed to the area with
blankets and bottled water for the
injured, the newspaper reported.

Jay Z's Magna Carta . . . Holy

Billboard 200, selling 129,000 copies,
according to Nielsen SoundScan (down 76%).
The set debuted atop the list last week with
528,000.
As the set retains the No. 1 crown, it's the
first rap album in nearly two years to spend
two weeks at No. 1. The last rap album to rack
up two weeks in the penthouse was Lil Wayne's

the charts dated Sept. 17 and Sept. 24, 2011.
Magna Carta . . . Holy Grail easily blocks the

iPhone 6 release date, news and rumours
24th Jul 2013

Everything we've heard so far about iPhone 6
When Apple unveiled the iPhone 5, the reaction
was a bit muted: where previous phones were
massive leaps forward, the iPhone 5 was a bit
longer and a lot easier to scratch.
So what can we expect from the next iPhone;
will it be the iPhone 6 or 5S? Let's see what
we can glean from the varying sources of the
internet - some reliable, some not so much. But
when might the iPhone 6 release date even be?
One thing is for sure, with the release of such
super handsets as the Samsung Galaxy S4,
Sony Xperia Z and HTC One, the next iPhone
will have to seriously up its game.
iPhone 6 and the iPhone 5S are two
different phones
The rumour mill doesn't seem too sure whether
the next iPhone is going to be the iPhone 5S or
the iPhone 6. Given the iPhone's history - from
the 3G onwards, there's always been a half-
step S model before the next numbered iPhone
- we'd bet on an iPhone 5S first and an iPhone
6 a while later.
However, in May 2013 Stuff reported it
received a photo of the till system at a
Vodafone UK store (which it has since removed
along with the reference to Vodafone), with
'4G iPhone 6' listed. Interesting.
It's been suggested that there could even be
three size variants of the new iPhone - check
out these mocked up images by artist Peter
Zigich. He calls the handsets iPhone 6 Mini,
iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 XL.
Could we see both an iPhone 5S and iPhone 6
this year? Some reports suggest a new 5S in
the middle part of the year before a revamped
iPhone 6 towards the end of the year or very
early in 2014.
iPhone 6 release date

Many pundits predict a summer iPhone 6
release date. It's quite likely that Apple is
moving to a two-phones-per-year upgrade
cycle, but we'd bet on a springtime 5S model
and a bigger, iPhone 6, update in the Autumn,
probably September.
Digitimes predicts a summertime reveal for
Apple's next generation phones, which again
fits with a WWDC unveiling. In May it became
clear that US carrier Verizon introduced an
iPhone 5 price cut of as much as $100 USD.
Reports in April also suggested that Foxconn
has added as many as 10,000 assembly line
workers per week to its Zhengzhou plant as it
readies itself for the iPhone 6 release date.
But Jefferies analyst Peter Misek reckons
we'll see an iPhone 5S first, with a June 2014
release for the iPhone 6. Citi's Glen Yeung also
believes that we won't see an iPhone 6 or cheap
iPhone until 2014.


iPhone 6 casing

Multiple rumours say Apple's working on
plastic cases for its next iPhone, mixing plastic
and metal in such a way that "the internal
metal parts [are] able to be seen from outside
through special design." Could these images
from Apple.pro be a new iPhone 6 complete
with plastic casing? The cynic inside us says
no, but you never know...
It's unclear whether such cases would be for
the iPhone 5S or iPhone 6, or if Apple is simply
considering making cheaper iPhone 4s to sell
when the iPhone 3GS reaches the end of its
life.
Speaking in March 2013, a KGI analyst said it
believed Apple would turn to manufacturer
Pegatron to make up to 75 per cent of low cost
iPhone products. Indeed, rumours in early June
2013 pointed at a $399 price point for the
cheap iPhone 6. We've also seen further
supposedly leaked images of an all-white,
plastic handset, but we're really not sure of
the provenance.

The iPhone 6 will finally do NFC
That's what iDownloadblog reckons, quoting
Jefferies analyst Peter Misek: it'll have a
better battery too, he says. Many Android
phones now boast NFC.

PayPal's chief information security officer,
Michael Barrett said this during a recent
keynote speech: "There is going to be a
fingerprint enabled phone on the market later
this year," he said. "Not just one, multiple."
Could this be inside the iPhone 6?

to slay Samsung's Galaxy S4
The iPhone 6 will run iOS 7
iOS 7 has been announced at WWDC 2013.
It's a radical overhaul of the OS, especially in
terms of the design which has fundamentally
changed and is far flatter and more Android-
like. There are rounded icons, striking colours
and a stark font. There are new features, of
course, such as Control Center, AirDrop and
iTunes Radio.
We're expecting a September or October
release date for iOS 7 in line with previous
releases.


iPhone 6 storage
We've already seen a 128GB iPad, so why not a
128GB iPhone 6? Yes, it'll cost a fortune, but
high-spending early adopters love this stuff.
iPhone 6 home button
According to Business Insider, of the many
iPhone 6 prototypes Apple has made, one has a
giant Retina+ IGZO display and a "new form
factor with no home button. Gesture control is
also possibly included" - more on that shortly.
Mind you, it was mooted that Apple would
dump the home button in time for iPhone 5, but
it never happened.


iPhone 6 screen
The Retina+ Sharp IGZO display, would have a
1080p Full HD resolution. It's also been widely
reported that Apple could introduce two
handset sizes as it seeks to compete with the
plethora of Android devices now on the
market.
Take this one with a pinch of salt, because
China Times isn't always right: it reckons the
codename iPhone Math, which may be a
mistranslation of iPhone+, will have a 4.8-inch
display. The same report suggests that Apple
will release multiple handsets throughout the
year over and above the iPhone 5S and 6,
which seems a bit far-fetched to us.
Patents show that Apple has been thinking
about magical morphing technology that can
hide sensors and even cameras . Will it make it
into the iPhone 6? Probably not.
Could the touch screen even be transparent?
Emirates 24/7 sin't the first source we'd turn
to for bone fide rumours about a new
smartphone, but it claims that an ultra-
sensitive transparent touchscreen will make it
into iPhone 6. The site also believes the display
will be made by Sharp, which wouldn't be so
surprising. One thing's for sure - a potential
wraparound screen is probably a pipedream.
Jefferies analyst Peter Misek also says he
believes the new iPhone will have a bigger
screen. Different sizes also seem rather likely
to us - the word on the street after WWDC
2013 was that there would be 4.7 and 5.7-inch
versions.


iPhone 6 processor
Not a huge surprise, this one: the current
processor is a dual-core A6, and the next one
will be a quad-core A7. The big sell here is
more power with better efficiency, which
should help battery life.
Expect to see it in the 2013 iPad first, and
expect to see an improved A6 processor, the
A6X, in the iPhone 5S.


iPhone 6 camera
Apple's bought camera sensors from Sony
before, and this year we're going to see a new,
13-megapixel sensor that takes up less room
without compromising image quality.
An Apple patent, uncovered by Apple Insider
in May 2013, shows a system where an iPhone
can remotely control other illuminating devices
- extra flashes. It would work in a similar
manner to that seen in professional
photography studios. Interesting stuff.


iPhone 6 eye tracking
One thing seems certain - Apple can't ignore
the massive movement towards eye-tracking
tech from other vendors, especially Samsung.
It seems a shoe-in that Apple will deliver some
kind of motion tech within the next iPhone,
probably from uMoove.
The new iPhone will have better 4G LTE
On its UK launch, just one UK network had 4G
LTE: Everything Everywhere, which currently
offers 4G on the 1800MHz band. In 2013, all
the other big names will be coming on board,
offering 4G in other frequency bands.
International iPhones already work across
different 4G bands to the UK, so you can
expect the UK iPhone 6 (and possibly the
iPhone 5S) to be more promiscuous than the
iPhone 5.
By the time the iPhone 6 emerges, iOS devices
should also have "nonclassified communication
approval" status from the US FCC, which
means they won't need to go through a lengthy
approval process.

iPhone 6 Wi-Fi may be 802.11ac
Apple likes to lead Wi-Fi standards adoption -
its Airport really helped make Wi-Fi
mainstream - and there's a good chance we'll
see ultra-fast 802.11ac Wi-Fi in Apple kit this
year . It's faster than Lighting, and not very
frightening.


iPhone 6 wireless charging
Wireless charging still isn't mainstream. Could
Apple help give it a push? CP Tech reports that
Apple has filed a patent for efficient wireless
charging, but then again Apple has filed
patents for pretty much anything imaginable.
The tasty bit of this particular patent is that
Apple's tech wouldn't just charge one device,
but multiple ones. Here are more details on the
iPhone 6 wireless charging patent.
Meanwhile, a further Apple patent seems to
imply that future iPhones will be able to adjust
volume as you move them away from your ear.
And could the iPhone 6 really have 3D? It's
unlikely, but the rumours keep on coming.



Stay tuned for more updates!

pravinp: about fooding and lodging............. We can not adjust like undergraduate students in PhD level sharing rooms and all.................. I expect they provide single room for PhD students ....

Nice one bro! Have u been interviewd and if yes,which program did you apply for?

Musabds: hello i just did my interview for undergraduate on the 13th. But i did not do very good cuz they asked question like "what is the population of turkiye" which i couldn't answer so i was wandering whether that could render me ineligible for the scholarship

I am going for PhD chemistry most probably in yildiz technical university, Istanbul or uludağ university, Bursa. If you guys know anything about these universities please share with me.
