Google bans Glass from shareholder meeting

In an ironic twist, Google has decided to ban Glass from their annual shareholders meeting. Like so many bars and other establishments ahead of them, Google fears Glass may be a bit too invasive. If they were hoping to avoid controversy in Mountain View with regard to Glass, they failed.
To be fair, Google has also banned cell phones and other recording devices, so it’s not all about Glass. To further drive the point home, Google has made no claims that Glass doesn’t have the ability or functionality to be intrusive on privacy. Having recently banned facial recognition software from Glass, it’s clear that Google has perhaps failed to properly appreciate how pervasive the technology can be, or what developers have in mind when considering the device as a platform to program for.

This creation bears some similarity to the recently announced Galaxy S4 Mini but also to last year’s Galaxy Camera. At this point, it’s not clear whether the image is accurate, but we’ll probably find out more details in the near future, considering that the Galaxy S4 Zoom product name has indirectly been confirmed already.

Is the HTC One Max (T6) shown in this blueprint?

The HTC T6 has been apparently shown in an alleged blueprint that has made its way to the Internet, revealing its potential size in the process (provided it's real).
Dutch site Mobileaks has published the blueprint, which you can see below, and the same source claims that the device, which is set to be HTC’s answer to the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, will be called the HTC One Max, a name we’ve seen in a previous T6 report. HTC One Max would be a pretty logical name for such a device, since HTC has also been rumored for some time to have a One Mini in the works, said to launch, just like the HTC T6 (or One Max, if you prefer that name), sometime during the second half of the year.
Here's the blueprint, as provided by the publication:
