Samsung has done a lot to bring the idea of phablet devices to the smartphone mainstream, with the Note series pushing display sizes way beyond the 5-inch mark. The Korean firm is furthering this range with its latest device, the Galaxy Note 3, a stylish and powerful handset that takes what has been seen before even further. The large smartphone can also be paired up with the Samsung Galaxy Gear smartwatch, which we've taken a look at elsewhere.
Key Features
- 2.3GHz quad-core processor
- 5.7-inch Super AMOLED display
- 16GB, 32GB or 64GB internal storage
- 13MP camera
- Android 4.3
- 8.3mm thick
- 168g weight
- 3200mAh battery
Design and Build
Samsung has made a big break with the design trends of its recent handsets and replaced the thin plastic backing seen on many Galaxy devices with a leather-effect plate. This may not make the handset look any more premium but it does make it more tactile and easier to grip than earlier devices.
Impressively, despite a boost in display size, the Galaxy Note 3 is no bigger than its predecessor, and in fact comes in at only 8.3mm thick, slightly less than the Note 2. While this difference is tiny, it's impressive that Samsung has squeezed the bigger display into a smaller package, especially when a phablet device could threaten to be uncomfortably large.
Tucked away in one lower corner of the handset is the S Pen stylus, a revamp of what has been seen on earlier Note devices. The stylus is a little easier to grip this time around, and tucks away snugly in its resting place when not in use. There is still something a little uncomfortable about tapping the plastic pen onto a sheer glass display, but Samsung has done an impressive job of creating the feeling that you are actually pressing something when poking the Note 3 with the S Pen.
Screen Performance
On to that display, and the Korean manufacturer has excelled itself with the 5.7-inch Super AMOLED offering that is a sight to behold. Colours are very bold and bright, although possibly a little over saturated, but when images are shown on the device they are incredibly vibrant and detailed.
The overall effect makes the user interface look fantastic, and this alone combined with the size of the Note 3's screen makes it amongst the best displays around at the moment.
Under the Hood
What the Note 3 has in size, it matches in power, with Samsung having made use of a lightning fast 2.3GHz quad-core processor for the UK version of the device. In everyday use, this means that speeds aren't something that anyone with a Note 3 have to worry about, with the device being able to handle pretty much anything that's thrown at it.
Even the most high-spec games that use advanced, 3D graphics work smoothly on the handset, meaning that there are very few hold ups in its performance. Overall, Samsung has surpassed most of its competitors when it comes to processing power and the Galaxy Note 3 leaves pretty much every other handset in its wake.
Battery Performance
Similarly, the firm has included a 3200mAh battery with the device, which would normally ensure a long life from one charge. However, since most of the handset's power usage comes from its display, the Note 3′s battery life is very average.
We certainly didn't notice any real problems when using the handset, although it does take some time to charge. Moderate use should see it last around a day – don't let that big battery spec fool you into thinking otherwise.
Operating System and User Interface
The Note 3 sees the advent of Android 4.3, an upgrade on the Jelly Bean platform that has been commonplace on high-end handsets for some time now. On top of this is Samsung's distinctive user interface, boasting some excellent features that are tailored specifically towards the Note 3 and its S Pen functionality.
Everything is laid out in typically excellent style, with the UI looking both colourful and airy at the same time. The settings menu groups the multitude of options together into sections so it's even easier to find what you're looking for. Plus the notifications bar is incredibly detailed, full of options and controls that offer different ways of interacting with the handset.
The most distinctive features are those that work with the S Pen though, and there are many of them. Housed within the Air Command menu, which can be summoned by hovering the pen over the display, features such as Quick Memo and Screen Writer allow you to scrawl words across the display. Impressively, Action Memo can recognise text and numbers, making calls and doing web searches with the information you've entered, should you wish.
Further functions include Scrap Booker, which prompts you to highlight a section of the display before capturing a screen shot of it. Pen Window lets you to open certain apps within a small window on the screen, which is useful for bringing up the calculator or doing a quick online search if you're in the middle of something else. Finally, there's a general search option that helps you to hunt through documents and notes stored on the device.
Samsung has included the Multi Window feature seen on the Note 2, allowing you to show two apps onscreen at the same time. Couple this with Pen Window and you can have up to three apps displayed on the device at any one time, making for a real feeling of multi-tasking that is like using a desktop computer.
Additional Features
Not to be outdone by HTC with its BlinkFeed homescreen feature, Samsung has included its own news feed and social network update machine and called it My Magazine. Working very much like Flipboard, the service pulls through information from news providers and the likes of Facebook and Twitter and presents it in a grid-like format.
My Magazine can be activated by swiping a finger up from the bottom of the display, much like Google Now on many Android devices. The service can also read content stored on the device, such as notes and photos, but we did find that all of its content is displayed a little randomly. My Magazine may not be an ideal way to search for a specific thing, but it's great for general browsing.
Camera and Video
Many of the camera features seen on the Galaxy S4 have made the jump to the Note 3, including the range of shooting modes that make taking pictures easy. These include presets for action and close-up shots amongst a wide variety of others, all housed in a wheel-like interface that is very easy to use.
At 13 megapixels, the camera is capable of producing excellent images that are up there with the best being produced by smartphones at the moment. Trying to take shots with a handset this large can be a little tricky, especially when holding it in landscape, and this is a shame considering the quality of the camera here. Nevertheless, images look all the better when shown on the ample display.
Performance and Verdict
Samsung's Galaxy Note 3 is an evolution of what has been seen from the Note range before, taking the phablet and S Pen idea and simply improving the specs and features. There aren't any great surprises here, but this handset is a respectable upgrade of the Note 2.
However, that's not to diminish its capabilities and the Galaxy Note 3 is amongst the most powerful, high-spec and high-performance handsets available today. While the form factor and multi-tasking focus may not suit everyone we can imagine business users loving this device, with there being plenty of other impressive elements to meet the needs of many other mobile users.

California's state Medicaid program would stop paying for methadone maintenance under a plan from Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger that's aimed at cutting $53 million from MediCal, the Sacramento Bee reported May 26.
If the state legislature approves the plan, only pregnant women and minors would be eligible for MediCal reimbursement for methadone treatment. The move also would cost the state $60 million in federal matching funds.
An estimated 35,000 patients would lose coverage under Schwarzenegger's plan. One expert said that 70-80 percent of addicts in local methadone programs are MediCal patients.
Barry McCaffrey, a former U.S. drug czar, was among the treatment advocates who protested the plan. "Dumping tens of thousands of opiate addicts back on the street would be an immediate disaster to law enforcement, and to the families of people who have become stable, functioning adults," said McCaffrey.

Klinefelter syndrome
Klinefelter syndrome is the presence of an extra X chromosome in a male.
Alternative Names
47 X-X-Y syndrome
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Humans have 46 chromosomes. Chromosomes contain all of your genes and DNA, the building blocks of the body. The two sex chromosomes determine if you become a boy or a girl. Females normally have two XX chromosomes. Males normally have an X and a Y chromosome.
Klinefelter syndrome is one of a group of sex chromosome problems. It results in males who have at least one extra X chromosome. Usually, this occurs due to one extra X. This would be written as XXY.
Klinefelter syndrome occurs in about 1 out of 500 - 1,000 newborn boys. Women who get pregnant after age 35 are slightly more likely to have a boy with this syndrome than younger women.
- Abnormal body proportions (long legs, short trunk, shoulder equal to hip size)
- Abnormally large breasts (gynecomastia)
- Infertility
- Sexual problems
- Less than normal amount of pubic, armpit, and facial hair
- Small, firm testicles
- Tall height
Signs and tests
Klinefelter syndrome may first be diagnosed when a man comes to the doctor because of infertility. Infertity is the most common symptom.
The following tests may be performed:
Blood tests will be done to check hormone levels including:
- Estradiol, a type of estrogen
- Follicle stimulating hormone
- Luteinizing hormone
- Testosterone
Testosterone therapy may be prescribed. This can help:
- Grow body hair
- Improve appearance of muscles
- Improve concentration
- Improve mood and self esteem
- Increase energy and sex drive
- Increase strength
Most men with this syndrome are not able to get a woman pregnant. However, an infertility specialist may be able to help. A special doctor called an endocrinologist may also be helpful.
Support GroupsThe American Association for Klinefelter Syndrome Information and Support (AAKSIS) - www.aaksis.org
Enlarged teeth with a thinning surface is very common in Klinefelter syndrome. This is called taurodontism. It can be diagnosed by dental x-rays.
Klinefelter syndrome also increases your risk of:
- Attention deficient hyperactivity disorder
- Autoimmune disorders such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Sjogren syndrome
- Breast cancer in men
- Depression
- Learning disabilities, including dyslexia, which affects reading
- A rare type of tumor called an extragonadal germ cell tumor
- Lung disease
- Osteoporosis
- Varicose veins
Calling your health care provider
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if your son does not develop secondary sexual characteristics at puberty. This includes facial hair growth and a deepening of the voice.
A genetics counselor can provide information about this condition and direct you to support groups in your area.

With the unanimous vote of the newly reconstituted DeKalb school board this week, any suspended board members who want to fight their ouster were set adrift. They now have to front their own legal costs in court.
Former school board chair Eugene Walker intends to do just that.
But he is seeking donations to defray his legal battle. In a post on this blog about the importance of challenging the state law, Walker explained, "If this unconstitutional act is to stand, then what is next? It will only be a matter of time before another constitutional right will be taken away by another wayward and self-perpetuating politico under the guise of the greater good. Minorities should not feel secure if contrived allegations from anonymous sources with hidden agendas can go to private agencies and to have their civil rights stolen away. This cannot and shall not be allowed to stand."
Ronald Carlson, a professor emeritus at the University of Georgia law school, told the AJC's Ty Tagami that the 2011 law allowing the governor to remove school board members based on a probationary ruling by SACS rather than any proven wrongdoing likely will be questioned again if applied elsewhere, so "there's probably a public interest in this case going forward."
"I can't afford to do this out of my own pocket," said Walker, who was suspended Feb. 25. "I'm going to ask people who believe as I do — one person, one vote — to give whatever financial support they can."
Before Deal replaced two-thirds of the nine-member board, attorney Bob Wilson was hired to represent Walker and the district — and by implication the old school board — in the showdown with the governor and the Georgia Board of Education.
Wilson's bill for the lawsuit and other services over seven weeks through March 1 came to more than $164,000 Wilson, a former DeKalb district attorney who helped lead a governor's investigation into test cheating in Atlanta and Dougherty County, said he could not comment about his future role in the DeKalb case "because of ethical considerations." But Walker said Wilson could not continue representing him because he's "the school system's lawyer." Walker said he is seeking new counsel.
The lawsuit contends the Georgia General Assembly handed the governor unconstitutional powers to remove elected school board members. The governor acted under a 2011 law that authorizes intervention in districts placed on probation by their accreditation agency, in this case the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
Walker said he's "not eager" to serve on the school board again either and might retire if he wins. "I'm not fighting to keep a position on the board," he said. "My fight is to eliminate what I see as an unconstitutional law."

Only days ago Walker said he was going to pay the legal fees himself. Bet he gets the NAACP to pony up fees for him.

"Walker said he's "not eager" to serve on the school board again either and might retire if he wins. "I'm not fighting to keep a position on the board," he said. "My fight is to eliminate what I see as an unconstitutional law."
Walker = Patriot, a defender of the Constitution & civil rights . . . or . . . seflish jerk who has 1 – already taken (along with the other 6 who voted with him) $164K from a cash-strapped system (a problem he contributed to) thus essentially stealing education from the classroom sof DeKalb County; and 2 – prolonging a distraction while the system tries to get back on course.
I know my answer. If he won't resign & drop the suit, along with the remaining 4, he will reveal what he really thinks of education, and confirming what people have said for years. He should be forced to drive from school to school, visit each classroom & load up something everywhere until it totals $164K. The others should joing them – load up a van of shame.
"Sorry little Mary (stunned Title 1 school 1st grader) I need that book more than you do, so hand it over." Followed by "Ok, you 4, round up all the pencils while we're at it, we've got to get heading to Redan, I've got a couple of computers to load up, I think we're going to need a bigger truck." Then, "let's get up north, I can't wait to clean them out."
March 23rd, 2013
11:48 am
Why does Walker think it is necessary to continue to be a party of this litigation since the U.S. District Court judge asked the Georgia Supreme Court to consider the constitutional questions and it was docketed this week. Walker is quoted as saying "I'm not fighting to keep a position on the board," he said. "My fight is to eliminate what I see as an unconstitutional law." If the Supreme Court is already set to consider it, why the need/want for legal donations?
And before too many pretend lawyers post here that they, too, think the law is unconstitutional – this was left out above – Ronald Carlson, a professor emeritus at the University of Georgia law school, said the outcome is uncertain but that he likes the governor's odds.

I am not so quick to join this ongoing MOB like action of denouncement of Mr.Walker's claim. These type of actions have always presented themselves so many times historically before as popular right decisions. Somewhere down the line , that popular stance has been rejected by the courts as wrong morally, socially and constitutionally.
I do not agree with all of Mr.Walker's claims nor his actions or decisions as a school board Leader. Nor have I ever agreed with any politician or leader about their claims of doing the right thing until I see its outcome. That my friends reveals the true intent.
However as American I do support his right, to Fight what he believe as right! Freedom is never FREE! someone always has to Pay. whether it be in Blood or in money or treasure the cost is always higher than one expects. We should be proud as a people for him to have this opportunity.
This situation could have easily have happened to either of US. Maybe next time it will. But for now I am willing to allow this thing to work itself through the courts and lets see what happens. We may or may not be ALL surprised at the decision rendered.
Meanwhile lets See what exactly what Mr.Thurmond and these new Board members are going to do. there have been a lot of promises made and a lot of platitudes bestowed all around. We should now start to see the BEEF!
May I remind all of you, Mr.Thurmond promised a written detailed plan that was supposed to have been presented by him last week. There has been nothing but Silence here and from him about it. Let us see, if this too will be a part of this ongoing saga as we move forward.
Mr.Thurmond we are still WAITING…Patiently!

I strongly suspect that the NAACP — either the state group or the moribund DeKalb organization — doesn't have the money. I had assumed that he could find a hungry young attorney looking to build a reputation to work the case pro bono.
The problem, though, is that whoever takes that case pro bono will be immediately and permanently associated with Walker — who, frankly, may turn out again to be engaged in questionable practices once the board's ledgers are properly audited. That attorney will also be associated with the wrong side of popular opinion on replacing the school board, and if you're trying to build a rep, that's a bad way to start. So … Walker probably will have to cut a check.
I look forward to trolling his Kickstarter campaign.
The irony, of course, is that Walker's view of the law may be correct. SACS is like Moody's and S&P, or the NCAA. They can issue opinions, and we have decided to defer to those opinions. It's reasonable to question SACS motivations or whether the standards of conduct are applied selectively and reasonable to argue that a democracy shouldn't defer to authority outside of its own control. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
But the facts laid out by SACS aren't in meaningful dispute. The board was dysfunctional. Accounting standards that could allow millions in textbook funding to simply disappear for a time are an open invitation to fraud. The school system spends twice the money that its neighbors spend on administrative expenses … with what to show for it? Nepotism and political hiring appear to be the rule. People are going to jail for fraud, and the board didn't have the skills to prevent more from occurring — two of the deposed board members lack college degrees, for crying out loud.
Walker is defending this, in effect, with an appeal.
I look at the people who were willing to serve, when Deal called for nominations. After weeding through the jokers and the clearly unqualified, there were still dozens of people with really stunning qualifications. These are people with jobs — some with very well paid jobs — elite academic qualifications and tremendous working credentials, willing to lay a lot of that down to serve … as long as they didn't have to go through a campaign to get there — the fundraising, the careful language, the entreaty of district kingmakers. That list would have been longer still, had the controversy around removing elected board members not kept other qualified people from emerging.
I look at that list, and then I look at who is serving right now in office in DeKalb County … and I wonder what it would take to make public service here attractive enough to get more them to toss their hat in the ring. I think we can do better.

Gene Walker has at least six relatives in some form who work for the school system.
Also, he has a very, very interesting past as a member of the State Parole Board. Taxpayers spent a whole lot of money on Gene before.
Don't forget that it was current BOE member Marshall Orson and others from the Fernbank community that supported Walker in his re-election effort.
March 23rd, 2013
12:15 pm
Walker worries about a "wayward and self perpetuating politico". He might get a mirror for that one.
It sure seems to me that Walker's time on the stage is gone. He did such a crappy job that the governor had to get involved in a politically dangerous, no win situation for the good of the county and the state. Walker humiliated himself, his family and his friends.
Now that his failure is so public, Walker has reached for "voting rights" as a dependable lever to stir black anger. Walker is desperately trying to distract, dissemble and re-direct the conversation from his own failure and incompetence. It seems that many of the blacks in the county see through Walker's tactics and are instead interested in the schools and the kids.
Walker should go away and should go now.
No one ought to pony up a cent to prolong his exit from the public stage.
March 23rd, 2013

Maybe he can pass the hat to get the money to repay the school system all the money he "stole" from the students with his selfishness.

@Shark Punch! It wasn't constitutional until recently.
Crooked Deal changed the constitution to fit his needs.
Did the Dekalb Board stink? Yup. Did they need to step down? Absolutely. But changing the constitution to make it happen is underhanded.
March 23rd, 2013
12:28 pm
@ What's Best – The Constitution was not changed by Deal. The elected House and Senate chambers of the legislature passed a bill that Deal signed. It has been ruled constitutional by a U.S. District Court judge, who in turn forwarded it to the Georgia Supreme Court for review.
Your partisanship has blinded you to the facts.

"Minorities should not feel secure if contrived allegations from anonymous sources with hidden agendas can go to private agencies and to have their civil rights stolen away. "
Sorry, if you're going to try to use the race card, you have to get one of those brightly colored "african" style robes and funny little hat.
BTW, I actually think Walker has a legitimate case as to the constitutionality of the law. Too bad he's a race baiting idiot.
March 23rd, 2013
12:59 pm
I agree that Dr. Walker has every right to pursue this. However, this is about his civil rights and not the children's civil rights so I think it was always wrong to use the school system's money. However, there used to be a policy years ago when I worked for DCS which said if charges are brought against you as a school employee you have a right to have your legal fees paid by the school system.
I do not know if this is still on the books but if it is that is probable why Lewis has had his fees paid.
I think the problem with the removed school board is that charges have not actually been filed. If charges where filed then they also may be able to get their legal fees paid for. Again I am not for sure if this policy is still on the books. I have been gone from DeKalb for many years.
I do know if I have to hire an attorney as a teacher because my civil rights have been violated then I have to pay my own attorney fees. If this means so much to Dr. Walker I feel sure he can find the money to pay his attorney fees without passing around the hat. He is as capable financially as any of us if we were in this situation. Maybe Sembler can come through for him again.

I stand corrected; however, the constitution was recently changed, regardless, yes?
And you don't know anything about my partisanship; you would probably be very surprised, actually.

Deal had no joy in handling the mess of the DCSS. Replacing the boobs on the Dekalb School board, however necessary, was not a political win for Deal. It was the action of an adult leader who did the right thing.
The easy, politically advantageous thing would have been to turn this back on the mess and leave the kids to the disaster that is DeKalb county.
March 23rd, 2013
1:18 pm
Bernie is right — and as usual right on time. Anyone seen THIS article by the AJC concerning the same topic? It was only a matter of time, however – even I'm surprised at the speed of this one:
Deal seeks more state clout over school districts
It has been ruled constitutional by a U.S. District Court judge, who in turn forwarded it to the Georgia Supreme Court for review.
A) no it hasn't — He didn't rule on the constitutionality of the law
B) He forwarded the law to the GA Supremes BECAUSE of the issue of Constiutionality.
March 23rd, 2013
1:20 pm
However, this is about his civil rights and not the children's civil rights
Its about the constitutionality of the LAW. Is it LEGAL to usurp a person's rights to vote in or OUT a school official?
March 23rd, 2013
1:43 pm
@ABC: What is the most unfortunate is that the voters readily accepted the foolishness that went on at the school board. Unfortunate, too, that the board neglected the students' best interest and placed their own agendas first. I completely agree that the board needed to be removed, but changing the law to make it happen is frightening to me. It is a slippery slope.
March 23rd, 2013
1:46 pm
"However, this is about his civil rights and not the children's civil rights"
Actually its about the voters' civil rights. Walker is claiming a property right to the board slot, but its the voters' rights that have been taken away. Does the state have enough of an interest to override that? I think they figured if they had removed the 3 new board members, the state would have lost on that issue as 5 of the 9 board members would have been elected in response to board problems, replacing older members.
This won't be the last time the law is tested. It would be good if the state doesn't just spend the opposition into oblivion. You would think most of the work would have been done for the first court case. Like Carlson in the article, I think there is a public interest in seeing the case tried.
March 23rd, 2013
1:51 pm
The guys a (suspended) politician.If someone gives him money,that person should have to disclose and Walker should have to disclose its origins completely and promptly.These are campaign contributions (IMHO) and should be treated as such.If he prevails in his legal fight,you can bet that whoever gave him money will want to be repaid in favors,contracts or job appointments.
Can't let this one slide by people!
March 23rd, 2013
1:52 pm
As for people claiming partisanship, Don McChesney, who by every indication is a Republican, and from his blogs, despises Walker, thinks the law is unconstitutional.
Its disturbing to me how many people think the ends justifies the means. I think there is a state interest here, but its a close call and IMO the law should only be used when the voters aren't doing anything about the problem.

The court has rejected Walker's ridiculous claim that he had a property right in his board seat. He ought to be laughed out of the county for that whopper.
DeKalb may get what some of you want and the state turn its back on the slow moving trainwreck that is DeKalb County. Day by day I understand why Dunwoody and Brookhaven need their own school systems.

I hate to agree with Walker, but on this one, I do think he'll win. The sad thing is, Walker was elected by the might and power of the Fernbank voters by and large and those same voters certainly had the might and power to force a recall, yet chose not to. If they had followed the proper procedures in place, whereby the voters themselves cast out an elected official, there would be no lawsuit. That is purely Constitutional and American – by the people. This Governor working with a powerful leader of a psuedo-private accrediting corporation – not so sure… Think about it: 10 years from now it could be a very different Gov and a very different school board. It is very much a slippery slope.

Doris M basically it is already happening but it isn't fair to parents that care about education.
parents that really care are putting their kids in Private schools as fast as they can. Let the ghetto minded school boards, parents and students run their crap in the ground and not hurt the good students of counties like Clayton and DeKalb.

Someone suggested that the school district bill each suspended board member for their equal portion of the outrageous Wilson attorney bill.
That would be about $30,000 each. They need to pay the freight on their bad decisions before hiring a new attorney.

Pass the hat?
That's the best laugh I've had all week. Walker, Mighty Walker, reduced to panhandling.
Mwa ha ha ha ha.
And the best comment yet is
"He's a power drunk fool who cannot believe someone dare to put an end to his corruption."
You got it.
March 23rd, 2013

Another great comment "Now that his failure is so public, Walker has reached for "voting rights" as a dependable lever to stir black anger."
That's right. The race baiter. The race card player. Walker messed with the wrong guy in Governor Deal. Walker played the race card and Governor Deal beat him at his own game. Love it.
Now Walker wants to panhandle and beg for money for his corrupt revenge attempt to get back on the board. We'll see just how many friends and family he has now.
Ha hahah.
Where are all thsoe friends and family going to get hundreds of thousands of dollars for Walker's defense?
He can't steal from the public taxpayer in Dekalb anymore.
This is rich.
March 23rd, 2013
7:48 pm
Ella, you are right but it has to be as part of your job description. Dekalb BOE should immediately sever itself from the defense of CLewis, as what he is charged with was most certainly NOT part of his job description.
Most dangerous is vesting any credence in SACS and its self-serving power plays.
March 23rd, 2013
7:51 pm
Walker is as phony as they come. If he was so concerned about the constitutionality of the law, why didn't he say anything until it was him who was replaced. He thinks he is so righteous. Why then does DeKalb not use the Social Security System which they would have to contribute to but refuse to contribute a dime to teacher retirement. How fair was that Walker? How fair is it that my pay goes down yearly, but I teach far more students than before and my support is far less. You and the school board turned your back on the teachers and students of the county. When the economy was in better shape, you were begging for teachers, then it turned into 'you should be glad you have a job" from one of the board members. I know after spending 7 years in this district, I cannot afford to continue to serve the students there and will move to another district that knows how to run a school district. So Dr. Walker, maybe you should become a teacher in DeKalb now and see what you all have done to this district. Then see if you have a reason to cry.
March 23rd, 2013
8:40 pm
Kudos to Bob Wilson, one sharp guy who knows how to work the "system" to the max.
Working for DeKalb County government from 1978 as Public Defender and District Attorney until he resigned as DA to run for Governor, he had enough years with DeKalb to collect a pension and health benefits as a retiree to this day With his current bill to DeKalb, $164,000 for seven days work, he'll make more than he did for about 3 years salary with the county.
He represented the previous school board, and as such is not suing the county, just the state, where he was a Special Assistant Attorney General, compensation unknown.
Just the facts.
March 23rd, 2013
8:49 pm
He should walk away. He should be ashame of how he served on that board then to go begging for money to pay his legal fees. Seriously! If he cares about the students in Dekalb he won't make them lose money on legal bills to fight him in court when that money could be better spent. This man only cares for himself.
March 23rd, 2013
9:32 pm
Shame, shame, shame for all the money that was spent on the lawsuit. I am a retired teacher that taught for many years in Dekalb in elementary schools. Every summer in August, I would go to the local Walmart and buy pencils, crayons, scissors, notebooks, folders, plastic boxes for all of my students. Some students did not come with supplies but supplies were always there waiting for them. As the year went by I replenished pencils and crayons as needed. Most teachers at my Title I school made this trip to local stores every summer. We never complained…we just did it. And to think of all the money that has been wasted! When paper supplies were gone, we went to Office Depot and bought our own paper. Oh yes…and the trips to teacher stores. This was done with continuous cuts in pay and no more payments in our 403B. This was done with fulough day cuts when school started and going to work early weeks before because weren't allowed in the schools on the fulough days before school starts. The only way to keep perservering was to focus on the students and we felt that this job was our ministry….serving our students. Please pray for your teachers that they can continue to perservere and focus on their students. They are your heroes.

Sam 123, please hook up with a church to meet the needs of your students.
My parents' church as a school supply drive every year. Employees at businesses do the same: Delta, Coke.
And Wal-Mart has affordable copy paper — less than $3 a ream. Office Depot is high priced. Big Lots has great deals on school supplies — even lower than Wal-Mart.
Ask the PTA at your school to help.
Good luck and THANK YOU for what you do.

'Girls Around Me', the App which allows men to locate the nearest online women, has finally been taken out of commission, following public outrage.
The so-called 'stalker App' encourages people to sign on using their phones and then to track down girls in nearby locations who have logged on to Foursquare – a device where people can sign in to various places online.
A person's 'sign-in' is usually only seen by other people on their Facebook accounts, but 'Girls Around Me' leaves the format open for complete strangers to see a girl's declaration of location.
Once the sign-in has been found, the link will also take the users to the girl's profile page, where, if not privatised,they can see any personal details.
Russian developers of the App, SMS Services O.o.o. built the App in accordance with existing social network devices, and have, because of this, refuted claims that the process invades people's privacy.
"We only use publicly available information that we retrieve from the Foursquare and Facebook APIs," they explained.
"We process this information and display it on the screen of your phone. We have no access to your login details; they are stored on the Foursquare and Facebook servers. Authorisation is carried out on their side."
Their argument is that all the information accessible to someone with the App is information that is open for anyone to see on Facebook anyway.
However, unless an individual stumbled across a certain girl's profile – which is unlikely – it is doubtful as to whether a complete stranger would ever see the person's online profile, let alone be directed to whoever's physically nearest.
The developers see this all as a positive feature however, and maintain that despite its recent demise, it could have had an advantageous influence on dating and social conventions.
"Girls Around Me scans your surroundings and helps you find out where girls or guys are hanging out," it says on their website. "You can also see the ratio of girls to guys in different places around you. Choose the best place to go, or even start meeting people directly from the app."

When 18-year-old Albino (AJ) D. Fernandes died in October 2012, Levi Bazilio honored his friend by penning a song, "A Smile Is Contagious," on which he raps about his fallen classmate:
A born leader, born lover
Boy we love ya
Wishin' you were back
When we see ya, gonna hug ya
And when Levi's mother, Paula McDarby of Falmouth, was struck in a hit-and-run accident in Marion last July that killed two of her dogs, Biscuit and Ziggy, and nearly took her life, Levi turned once again to music as an outlet for his emotions, this time writing "Right Now," in which he raps, in part:
I live to give you what you need
We've been through the nightmare
So now I caught our future dreams
And we deserve that; at least I think so
You hit the earth fast so I told you drink slow
Now this is it ma
This right here is my promise
Love me to the moon and I love you to the comets
This is how 18-year-old Levi, a senior at Falmouth High School, expresses his thoughts and feelings. Some do it through writing. Others do it through painting. Levi does it through rap.
It began more as a hobby, or as he said last week in an interview, "we did it just as a joke," at his friends' homes after witnessing others freestyle lyrics. "It was so easy to do," he said, about his natural ability to turn his words into poetry against the backdrop of a beat.
Although rappers are known for being brash, Levi is anything but, a soft-spoken teenager who brushed aside previous requests for interviews because he did not feel the attention was deserved. And he freely acknowledges he is his own worst critic, noting he is often not satisfied with the finished product. "A lot of it is not being confident in what I record," he said. "When I record it usually takes me about 50 times on each part because it never sounds right to me."
Because of this perfectionist attitude, Levi considers himself happy with about seven of the countless songs he has to his credit. Those pieces, which includes "Right Now," can be found on his SoundCloud channel.
Not in that group of favorites is a song titled "I Got Enough" that was turned into a music video, directed by Boston-based cinematographer Patrick Lizza. Shot all in black and white, the video is set at a house party outside of Boston and features several of Levi's classmates from Falmouth High School.
The message behind the song, which has a jazzy feel, "is I'm telling people don't overthink things," he said. "You don't need a reason to do what you want to do."
Although he has songs that occasionally delve into the negative stereotypes that are promoted by other hip hop artists, Levi does his best to counterbalance that with ones that have a deeper meaning. "I definitely have more ignorant music to relate to what kids listen to, but then again I have music that tells about me and what I am feeling," he said of the line he has to walk between remaining hip and having a positive impact on his audience. "I'm trying to do some stuff that has substance and talks about what happens in life."
Honoring A Friend
And so it was with "A Smile is Contagious," which he recorded in the days following AJ Fernandes's death and which he turned into a YouTube video, primarily featuring photos of his friend. "I kind of looked up to him like a big brother," he said of AJ. "I don't think anyone could say anything bad about him."
Levi did the same when his mother was hit last year by 22-year-old David Pajunen II, who later was sentenced to three years of probation and lost his license for a year.
I just feel like life wouldn't be the same without [music]. It is something people need and it is how people relate to one another.
Levi Bazilio
"It was probably the scariest thing that ever happened in my life," Levi said. Following the accident his mother was in the intensive care unit at Rhode Island Hospital for three days, nearly dying because she initially would not take blood transfusions due to her religion. It was Levi who convinced her to rethink this decision, which helped to save her life.
And it was Levi who brought his mother to Mr. Pajunen's home in November, arranging an emotional meeting in which she finally heard an apology from the man who had nearly taken her life. "She needed to hear an apology and I felt like he owed it to her," Levi said.
These stories paint the picture of a teenager who acts older than he actually is, having been forced to confront difficult obstacles that have been placed before him at a young age. With each of these challenges, Levi has turned to music for solace.
And he has plans to continue to do so in the future, both in the short- and long-term.
On March 15, his birthday, he is set to perform live at Pufferbellies in Hyannis. The next night he will head to Providence, opening up for King Los and YL at the Dive Bar.
Although he can often be found recording music in his own studio at his home in Mashpee, or in the studio of fellow Mashpee artist Zack Gowan, owner of Micron Audio and a member of the band Phone Calls From Home, Levi prefers the thrill of performing in front of a live audience. "Getting in front of people is awesome," he said, though he is somewhat hesitant to do so in front of those he knows. "I'm more nervous when I do local shows... I feel like I'm less important to them because they know me on a personal level."
In the long term Levi is contemplating enrolling in Fisher College in Boston, where he would pursue a degree in marketing. Or he may elect to take a year off and focus on music, both producing and recording, as a way to give a voice to what he is thinking and feeling inside. "It is just everywhere you go. Everyone is always listening to music," Levi said, when asked what draws him to the art form. "I just feel like life wouldn't be the same without it. It is something people need and it is how people relate to one another."

Oh man I feel like this is going to be great
The lack of upgrade-ability ticks me off...and while the retina display is no doubt beautiful, it's not worth the price hike IMO.
Apple may have lost me with all these decisions.
There is no doubt in my mind that this is going to be a great seller and a fantastic product(which I believe it already is). However, I see why apple capped the upgrade capability. They would top out their upgrades= no sales for later products/upgrades
The screen is gorgeous no doubt but for the price... I'll be passing by this one.
Retina has spoiled us to the point where we don't care how much we
My $700 Toshiba has all that but the retina which I really don't care for. I have never cared for the MacBook but I saved myself a good $1500 with this and mine plays games really well
not to mention the design beautiful design which apple has warped and perfected over the many years. Or the amazing spaced and really the best laptop keyboard that is worth typing on.
Now if only it wasn't so expensive and uncustomizable. I really wanted one.
Can't customize is über fail on Apples part. Not worth 2100 for me if I can't upgrade it. They can take their retina crap and shove it.
In his defense though, is the design and keyboard worth $1500 extra? Also just buy a nice LED 1080p monitor for when he's at his house.
Despite that I plan to buy the new MBPwRD, what I want to know is that if some how you were able to acquire apples new ram can you replace the one that is already attached to the motherboard?

In New York City's War on Crime the most haneous detectives are made fun of by me! Yes now you can't even escape the clutches of this ubiquitous TV show on Rifftrax. No explicit content except it's Law and Order so it's pretty explicit already. If you are a TV Crime drama fan this rips it apart and if not then this is a good excuse to start. Please enjoy. Where else can you laugh at murdering innocent college students or prison tattoos. At one point I have my "robot voice" put it in sit com mode because if anything needs a laugh track it's Law and Order.

Vintage Performing Arts Poster Mr. Henry Ludlowe The Raven
My father was a professional photographer in Susanville , California and owned a shop called Eastman's Studio Photography. In the early 80's he bought the original Eastman's Studio business and building in historic uptown Susanville . This studio had been there since the early 1900's. My dad passed away in the early 1990's but he left with me memories and impressions that I carry with me today that reflect my work. In honor of my dad, my photographs bear the name and vintage tradition of Eastman's Studio Photography.

Four colorful hand painted bowls are paired with this magnificent deep bowl. I have looked high and low to find a truly deep bowl in which to serve soups or a tossed salad. Here it is!
In addition to serving your gazpacho, the smaller bowls are perfect for myriad uses: fresh salads, hot and cold soups, grapes or olives. You will be purchasing so much more than just a gazpacho set.
These bowls feature our new 'Flor' design from the artisans in Puente de Arzobispo. Each is signed by the artist.

Pure-Rest Organics
- Location: online only
- Website: purerest.com
Representing the healthy side of the spectrum, Pure Rest is a great, highish-end resource for ALL NATURAL bedding and mattresses. They do it all, specializing in two kinds of mattresses; organic cotton and natural rubber.
They will also kill you with how good they are:
"1# We start with US milled organic cotton fabric and quilt it to 100% organic cotton wool batting."
"2# Then we place 3 layers (for rubber mattress) or 4 layers (non latex) of organic cotton batting grown and milled in the USA, on a 1440 steel 660 count coil foundation..." [the list goes on...]
Prices run high (but all good bedding does). If you keep an eye out for their sale, it came up in October last time.
Pure-Rest also carries natural sheets, blankets, toppers, mattress pads, pillows and towels. Pure-Rest is associated with Ecobaby Organic, where organic crib mattresses and all sorts of healthy children's products can be found.

Pure-rest (ecobaby) is terrible. I ordered the pacific rim profile bed from them last week. They called me and told me it wasn't in, then charged my credit card for the full price plus $50. When I contacted them they told me the bed would arrive in 9 weeks, then contacted me again to tell me I had to pay $133 extra for shipping (not mentioned on their website) or cancel the order. This was after they charged my credit card. It was a horrible experience and I would avoid them at all costs.

By Josie Day, Hollywood Staff
We'd like to say this week's episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills packs as much punch as last week's, but unfortunately, this is not the case. It seems the girls, even with the alienation of Lisa, can't give us what we need.
Lisa and Ken leave Puerto Rico before the start of the next day, making another argument out of the question. The remainder of the girls get along fabulously, in the way they always do after they collectively decide one of them has been a lying b**ch.
Vacation can't last forever, no matter how rich or famous you are. Kim and Yolanda go to opposite sides of the country to drop their daughters off at college. Yolanda heads to New York and Kim drives down to San Diego.
But where is Carlton? We hear your cries, fellow fans! Carlton has been helping Lisa feel less abandoned with her advice on mean girls, as well as continuing the ritual of picking her children up from school every day. When we woke up from our boredom-induced sleep we realized the episode was almost over.
The highlight? Brandi's average looking parents met Yolanda and her husband David. And what did Brandi do for her father on his birthday? Other than tell the entire country how intimated and insecure being around wealth makes him. She bought them a new car.

Have you decided to leave your current college or university and continue your education at Northampton? We have just one word for you: Welcome!
Getting the most out of your transfer to Northampton requires a few extra steps in the enrollment process, but staff and faculty are here to make your transition as seamless as possible.
The Basics
It all starts with Northampton's standard application form and a $25 non-refundable fee. Everyone wishing to take courses for college credit at NCC -- including all degree and certificate programs -- needs to take this initial step.
You can submit your application to the college's Main Campus Admissions Office, the Monroe Campus Enrollment Office, or right here online.
Get The Credit You Deserve
If you completed courses at another U.S. accredited college or university, you may be eligible to transfer some or all of those credits - up to a maximum of 45 - into a degree program at NCC. Here's how:
Northampton Community College
Admissions Office
3835 Green Pond Road
Bethlehem, PA 18020
Once all of your transcripts have been received, the Admissions Office will perform a transfer of credit evaluation. Credit is awarded for courses completed with a C grade or better that apply to the NCC major. Transferred credits are added to a student's record upon final verification of enrollment (after the refund period of a student's first semester).
Take It To The Next Level
Once you've completed your application form, here are a few more steps you may need to take:
You're In! Now What?

Two teenagers were wounded in a drive-by shooting in the North Center neighborhood late Sunday.
The two males, ages 17 and 18, were traveling in a Dodge Neon in 2400 block of Irving Park Road when a dark-colored SUV pulled alongside and at least one gunman inside opened fire about 11:33 p.m., police said.
A bullet struck the 17-year-old in the shoulder. The 18-year-old suffered a graze wound to the head, as well as a gunshot wound to the back, police said.
Both are listed in "stable" but serious condition at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, according to authorities.
After the shooting, the teens fled in the Neon. Police recovered the car, riddled with bullet holes, about a mile away, at West Montrose Avenue and North Whipple Street, according to the dispatch reports.
No one was arrested as Area North detectives were investigating.

In this Article
When to Seek Medical Care
Do not assume that all red, irritated, or swollen eyes are pinkeye (viral conjunctivitis). Symptoms could also be caused by seasonal allergies, a sty or a chalazion (an inflammation of the gland along the eyelid), or blepharitis (an inflammation or infection of the skin along the eyelid). These conditions are not contagious. Pinkeye, if caused by a virus, is highly contagious.
Call your ophthalmologist if any of the following symptoms develop.
Your ophthalmologist may advise you to come into the office to be seen immediately. If you cannot reach your ophthalmologist, go to the hospital's emergency department.

NEWPORT NEWS – Local and state leaders have been reacting to the death of former Portsmouth Mayor James W. Holley. On Saturday morning, Congressman Robert C. Scott issued the following statement:
"Mayor Holley was a dedicated public servant and a tireless advocate for the City of Portsmouth and all of her citizens. A career in public service spanning back to 1968 when he was first elected to city council culminated in his election as the first African American mayor of a South Hampton Roads city in the 1980s. Despite the ups and downs of his career, Mayor Holley will always be known for his tremendous spirit, courage and tenacity when it came to fighting for the 'Portsmouth Family.' I will greatly miss his counsel on issues facing Portsmouth. My prayers go out to Mayor Holley's family, friends, his former staff, and all the people positively impacted by his life."

Will Rogers State Historic Park
Will Rogers Trail
To Inspiration Point is 2 miles round trip with a 300-foot elevation gain
Will Rogers, often called the "Cowboy Philosopher," bought a spread in the Santa Monica Mountains in 1922. He and his family enlarged their weekend cottage to 31 rooms. The Oklahoma-born Rogers toured the country as a trick roper, punctuating his act with humorous comments on the news of the day. His roping act led the humorist to later fame as a newspaper columnist, radio commentator and movie star.
Today, the ranch and grounds of the Rogers Ranch is maintained as Will Rogers State Historic Park, set aside in 1944. You can see a short film on Rogers's life at the park visitor center and tour the ranch house, still filled with his prized possessions.
Rogers himself designed the riding trails that wind into the hills behind his ranch. The path to Inspiration Point is an easy walk for the whole family.
Directions to trailhead: From Sunset Boulevard in Pacific Palisades, 4.5 miles inland from Sunset's junction with Pacific Coast Highway, turn inland on the access road leading to Will Rogers State Historic Park. Park your car near the polo field or near Rogers' house.
The hike: Join the path near the tennis courts west of park headquarters and begin ascending north into the mountains. Dogs are allowed on a leash not in excess of 6 feet. (You'll see a couple of different trails; join the main, wide bridle path.)
Rogers Trail ascends a ridge overlooking nearby Rivas Canyon and leads to a junction, where you take the turnoff for Inspiration Point. Not really a point at all, it's actually more of a flat-topped knoll; nevertheless, clear-day views are inspiring: the Santa Monica Bay, the metropolis, the San Gabriel Mountains, and even Catalina Island.

Why would anyone buy the slowest iPhone?
AT&T and sprints are much faster.
There faster but ATT just started this ******** where if your in the top 5% of using data, then they slow your data speed down.
I get text every month saying that crap. At that point I can't watch movies on my phone, my Internet is slow as ****, and I'm definitely not tethering from my phone to my iPad.
I would go to sprint but I owe them some money for canceling my service with them and going to AT&T. I might jump over to Verizon after my plan is up. Does Verizon have a unlimited data plan as well?
I use between 5GB and 25GB of my unlimited data bandwidth during any given month. I haven't had my bandwidth throttled through AT&T. I still have very fast 3G connection speeds. Speeds which rival many DSL home Internet service providers.
I did receive a phone call and emails regarding my data usage when I upgraded to the 4S and within 2 weeks racked up nearly 30GB of data usage. They wanted to know what I was doing. After telling them that it wasn't their business asking their customers what they do with their services, I told them that whatever I was doing does not breach my agreement and they let me be. Still have yet to be throttled.
If you've been throttled, then you might be less than truthful about tethering .. whether legally or illegally.
This is what they send me every month.
ATT Free Msg: Your data usage is among the top 5% of users. Data speeds for this bill cycle may be reduced. Visit www.att.com/dataplans or call 8663447584.
I need to call them and complain
verizon wireless is the nations top service provider... DUH!
AT&T will shut you off with that kind of usage. I know I have seen it happen. At the very least you are being throttled... if you are even telling the truth at all.
Haha I got the message just yesterday.
ATT Free Msg: Your data use this month places you in the top 5% of users. Use Wi-Fi to help avoid reduced speeds. Visit www.att.com/dataplans or call 8663447584
Then curiosity got me:
Next Bill Cycle: 01/21/2012
Data (MB): 10992.6 of Unlimited
Messaging: 206 of Unlimited
Visit us online at www.att.com/DataPlans
Verizon or sprint iPhone users call me on my AT&T iPhone and lets both look up scores or anything on the internet while we talk... Lol
Can do it with Verizon or sprint
Hehe, I'm one of them
