Google’s new Nexus phone image leaks on the net
The image of Google’s new Nexus phone has been leaked on the internet. According to The Verge, the images were posted on the Nexus Indonesia Google+ community. In May, the reports suggested that Google was working with partners Huawei and LG to produce two new Nexus phones, a 5.7-inch Huawei device and a 5.2-inch model with LG. The Google’s new Nexus image shows the back of a white Nexus device. At the base is a sticker featuring a small red circle that appears to be LG’s logo, suggesting that the phone is the LG device. It also features a bulging camera, laser focus and dual-LED flash. At the top is a camera and underneath it is a similarly sized circle that looks to be the fingerprint scanner. The image resembles renders of the supposed LG device leaked late last week with a rounded back and a camera. There is no solid date set for either phone’s launch.

Disney Is Adding A Massive 14 Acres of Star Wars To Its Theme Parks
Years of rumors have finally be made official. Disney CEO Bob Iger just announced at the D23 Expo that they are making not one, but two, full-on Star Wars-themed lands at their theme parks. One at Hollywood Studios in Orlando and one at Disneyland in Anaheim, marking their largest single land park expansions ever. At 14 acres wide, the parks will transport fans to a whole new Star Wars planet (which, from the images, looks a lot like Naboo) that’s located on the edge of the Outer Rim. Every inch of it will be from the series’ mythos. Everything will tie in. There will be cantinas operated by aliens, and all that good stuff. As for the rides, there will be two major ones. One will let fans fly the Millennium Falcon on a secret mission, the other will place them in between a fight with the First Order and the Resistance. Disney offered no details on when these two Star Wars lands would be done, except to say it would take time. While we wait though, they announced a few new Star Wars updates for the parks in the coming months. First, the legendary ride Star Tours: The Adventures Continue will be getting a Force Awakens update in the coming months. They’ll add a new location from the film into the experience of the ride, as well as some new characters. Second, there will be an update to the Jedi Academy where kids can learn to be Jedi. Third, they will launch an attraction called Star Wars Launch Bay, which is a huge space fans can walk through to see props, costumes, drawings and more from the Star Wars universe. Finally, in early 2016, sort of like the popular Star Wars Weekends events at Disney Orlando, they’re launching a limited time seasonal event called Star Wars: Season of the Force. The park will have a ton of exclusive, limited time events, foods, characters and more. One example they gave was Space Mountain would be transformed into Hyperspace Mountain. The traditional ride will be updated with Star Wars music, visual effects and more. This will be in both Orlando and Anaheim.

Indonesian Plane Carrying 54 People Missing Over Papua
An ATR42-300 aircraft operated by Trigana Air as Flight 267 has gone missing near Papua, according to various reports. The twin turboprop was said to be carrying 54 people and lost contact with air traffic controllers about 30 minutes after taking off from Jayapura in Papua. The flight was headed for Oksibil, also in Papua. The aircraft involved in the incident, registration PK-YRN, previously served Trans States Airlines prior to joining Trigana Air’s fleet in 2005. Unfortunately, Indonesia’s Trigana Air has lost several aircraft in its history and as a result, is blacklisted from operating anywhere in European airspace. The ATR42-300 is a short haul regional airliner, is powered by Pratt & Whitney Canada PW 120 engines and is flown by a variety of civil and government operators. Some reports are indicating that Flight 267 crashed into a mountain, with local villagers witnessing a low-flying aircraft plunge into terrain in the midst of inclement weather. There are currently no reports of any survivors, or if anyone on the ground was injured during the course of the crash.
