Any tips to extend iPhone battery life?

Since I've updated with IOS7 the battery life on my iPhone has been terrible!
I'll barely use it and it sits in my handbag and by lunch time it will be at 30%!
does anyone have any tricks to make it last longer?

Will iPhone 5s from Verizon work with nTelos?

I have an upgrade available right now from Verizon and I would like to buy an iPhone for my girlfriend who has nTelos. I'm buying the iPhone from the Apple store. Will it work on her network or not? (Btw I plan to buy the iPhone and activate it, then deactivate it and reactivate my old phone)

My iPhone says that I have a text message but I don't?

My iPhone 4S has a notification that I have a text message but I don't. I have been searching the forums for an hour and I've tried everything from rebooting my phone, syncing it on iTunes, turning on and off my messages/emails, checking my voicemail, etc. I saw that I have to delete all of my text messages, however I don't want to do that. I do not know where the unread message is coming from and I have no desire to delete all of my text messages to do so. How can I get rid of this? I'm getting really annoyed.

Will She Give Me Another Chance?

I was selfish, I was mean and above all else I made it look like she didn't matter in my life and I just didn't care about her. But that's not true, I do care and my life would probably suck without her, like it does now she's not talking to me. I would hate to one day wake up and realise that's she gone and is past history. I want to get one more chance, to show her I really am nice. I don't care about her boyfriend, because if she gave me one more chance, I'd get closer and closer with her and steal her in the end and make her break his heart. I've been out of order and we had a massive argument on Facebook, that everybody was talking about, she got upset and now it's been four moths, I've told her I'm sorry but only wrote it on a memo on the Iphone and she said alright, but she never truly forgave me. We belong together, everything and everybody says it, I want her, she's the only one that I wanna be with and probably in the future, I won't care about no other girl as much as I do about her. We live in different cities and the only way to get one more chance, is if we talk on Facebook, but she wouldn't add me back on it and I left.

Should i return to Facebook? If I do return how do i make her add me or accept my friends request? I want my final chance!

Why do clocks slow down or speed up?

I have an issue with clocks. All the clocks that I'm around slow down or speed up. I'm obsessed with time because I never know exactly what time it is, so I have many clocks in my house. Currently, my microwave clock, oven clock, daughter's clock, stereo clock, computer clock and my car clock all slow down or speed up. The only clocks that stay consistent (which I set the other clocks to) are the watch I wear and my iphone. The clocks slow down/speed within a 1 minute to 1 hour range.

I tried googling it and all I got was information on batteries dying and electrical grids. The only issue I have with this is that I notice this happening with almost all the clocks I'm around. This started occurring (or at least I started noticing) 20 years ago, in 1993 or so.

Does anyone else have this same problem or have any information on why this is happening?

Added (1). Just to add to the rude comments: I have to get my children from the bus stop this year, so actually 5 minutes off is a problem. My car clock was an hour slower. It's not just a minute or two. My kitchen clocks are both 10 minutes faster now even though I just programed them.

I honestly don't understand why people have to add snarky, know-it-all comments. If you don't have the answer or can't say something helpful, then why do you even post?

IPhone problems? Hasn't been dropped?

I got it just this last September and its worked perfectly until now. When its not plugged in, it won't turn on. When it is plugged in, the Wi-Fi button to turn on Wi-Fi won't work, and it says I have no service. The place at the top where it says your bars(phone service) and 3G or bars or Wi-Fi, that just says: "Searching… ". The date and time are completly wrong too. It says its Wednesday, December 31st. Nothing was wrong with it until this morning.

Is this worth paying the money?

Is it worth paying the money to upgrade from the iPhone 4 to the iPhone 5s? I'm going to buy the iPhone 5s not get it on contract.
