Samsung Galaxy S II vs LG Optimus 2X benchmark tests - guess who scored 3732 on Quadrant
0. phoneArena 30 Apr 2011, 03:13 posted on
We ran Samsung's Exynos chipset against the first dual-core phone with NVIDIA Tegra 2 silicon, the LG Optimus 2X, and the Samsung Galaxy S II results on the synthetic benchmark tests went off the charts...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

Go Samsung!! 3732 score on benchmark is amazing!!!!!!!!
I never seen this score unless device's been overclocked..
The best smartphone ever.. Throw the I-phone into trash lol

OMG OMG WOW i mean WTF you guys creaming yourselves over Quadrant..
Its only synthetic benchmarks guys. How does it go in REAL life is what i'm interested in...
36. PHONE_FREAK (Posts: 51; Member since: 20 Oct 2010)
In real life, it means that everything is faster. MUCH faster. Just compare the G2X (not Optimus 2X which is plagued with buggy software) to single core devices. You will notice a significant improvement in speed. Of course this is because of the dual core processor..
But I must agree with you that Quadrant isn't as important as many people present it as. It is mainly bragging rights.
44. cheetah2k (Posts: 1576; Member since: 16 Jan 2011)
MUCH faster my ass. I could make my Dell Streak 5 produce 1800+ quad scores up from 800 and it still performed like a dog. The same goes for the original SGS. Even with the ext4 file system hacks it lagged, but the 1600+ quadrant scores it was getting suggested otherwise..
55. donzere (Posts: 12; Member since: 10 Jun 2010)
what's the point of all the speed if the device is still buggy and laggy most of the time.
57. lacp (unregistered)
What buggy, what hell! It's the most smooth android phone and the most smooth phone of all existent phones even that the IPhone 4.
58. rayjones09 (Posts: 149; Member since: 16 Dec 2010)
See, you were going well for awhile. I'm sorry, but NO Android device no matter how fast and smooth is as smooth as IOS or WP7. You'd be deliberately delusional to actually believe that.

i plan to sell iphone 4, this sg2 will be my next phone, i hope price not to much
23. chinakidoliver.iab (Posts: 75; Member since: 07 Dec 2010)
its expensive unless u do a 2 year contract it is 200 dollars
45. Niels (unregistered)
I think if you're used to the overpriced iPhone this phone will be very cheap for you.
3. Andy (unregistered)
benchmark is meaning less. galaxy s can achieve a higher score without overclock.
although the score for galaxy s is high, it is still not very smooth
4. tony (unregistered)
amazing, i sold my iphone 4 to get this, currently awaiting delivery from Gum Mobile, very excited to get this fantastic device
5. tony (unregistered)
nice review btw!!
6. IOS5 (unregistered)
LG opitums 2x has better screen than galaxy s2 but still can't see it direct under sun light and it's IPS panel?! Super Amoled plus looks good but Amoled screen still has some issue with burn off effect and darn battery life in white color! Sorry fandroid but both of them can't trust it's all about the look but when it comes to quality, functionality still HTC,Motorola the best.
13. AppleFUD (unregistered)
You obviously haven't been keeping, expected from an isheep like you.
The S Amoled + is probably the best screen on a handset today--every reviewer has even stated that including the flaming ifan reviewers. Second, the battery life on this thing is great--average users will see at least two days use easily.
Now go back to sucking on your iToy.

How do you know he has an iPhone?! This person never alluded to having that device but because he speaks contrary to your opinion, you call him a sheep and assumes he has an iPhone. You Android fans kill me.
43. Sancheezmo (unregistered)
His name is IOS5. Iphone Operating System. Thats how he knows you idiot.
60. rayjones09 (Posts: 149; Member since: 16 Dec 2010)
The idiot who's doing something with his life I'm sure. I can guarantee I'm younger than you yet exhibiting a far higher level of intellect and maturity than you. What a shame. I've never seen people so eager to harshly judge a person's competence and intelligence over a phone OS choice. And I'm the idiot...right...
62. superpiff (unregistered)
yeah but he said htc and motorola were the best so that would suggest that his opinion is unbiased,and maybe he doesnt have an iphone currently and is interested in the iphone 5 whenever thats comin out.
59. rayjones09 (Posts: 149; Member since: 16 Dec 2010)
See, I get thumbs down for no reason. Just for speaking contrary to Android. Bollocks.
63. superpiff (unregistered)
i dont think has to do with your opinion as much as your tone, things come across harsh when written.ill give you a thumbs up
18. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
What are you talking about? The G2x has a nice ips screen, but its not a "retina display" like the iphone's IPS Screen (which is made by LG as well). The ips on the G2x is almost as good as the super amoled on my vibrant (i put them side by side), but it is blown out by the higher pixel count in the SGS2's Super Amoled +. And what burn off effect are you talking about? Really? Where do you get your info?
I love when iBots try to tell people that actually use android which manufacturers are the best. The GalaxyS is the best phone ive ever owned (and ive had quite a few) by far. If you want a high end android device, your best bet.. in order.. is Samsung- HTC- LG- Motorola (GalaxyS2, Evo3D/Sensation, LG G2x/3d, Atrix/bionix(the second one..lol).). The only reason i didnt give the LG higher is because they are still new to the game. the G2X is a fantastic device.

You might be falling for Tegra's FPS limit trick on Smartbench. The S2 has a hard limit of 60 FPS to save power while Tegra allows for higher FPS than 60 to score better on benchmarks even if the LCD screen can't display it. Smartbench game tests looks very simple. Try something harder for the GPU like GLBenchmark 2.0 Egypt test to better compare the GPUs.
11. KingK (unregistered)
No, you are falling for sgs 2's graphic trick, thinking mali is hot shit when its junk. lol
Quadrant is all over the place for sgs2 , from 2500 to 3700. \
Pretty pointless to compare 2.2 to 2.3
17. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
the difference in the sgs2 is that the lower end quadrants are run on a preproduction SGS2 that was clocked at 1ghz and not optimized. The 3000+ quads are on the retail release thats been optimized and clock has been raised to 1200mhz.
technically, 2.3 doesnt do much of anything for graphix. many people have had a speed decrease not an increase when going to 2.3.. at least in quadrant.
37. PHONE_FREAK (Posts: 51; Member since: 20 Oct 2010)
I don't think that quadrant is fully optimized for 2.3. Not to long ago, the test would fail. Correct me if I'm wrong.
47. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
corrected you.
it runs fine. i run it on my vibrant with 2.3.3 on it. I dont know of there ever being a problem with it because as soon as 2.3 came out, people were benchmarking it.
There just isnt a big increase like everyone is expecting.
Also, quadrant hasnt been dual core optimized yet so who knows whats going to happen to the scores if they do finaly optimize it.
64. superpiff (unregistered)
xda developers recognized that quadrant sometimes didnt work well with gingerbread broseph.
65. superpiff (unregistered)
also if you have data2ext your quadrant score will balloon, i believe it has something to do with I/O part of the test.i get anywhere from 2200 to 2500 with boyppc-shiftpda ginger sense.s rom on my Hd2 u.s. but if i dont have data2ext then i get around 1700 to 1900.
67. Jeez (unregistered)
wc326 over at XDA has done the GLBenchmark comparison. Sympathy for the guy who just got his 2X devaluated. Egypt real app test 23.3 vs 41 fps.
8. Jeez (unregistered)
Just look at the FPS counters in the video to see what I mean.

@ios5 where the hell riding you get the information that LG has a better screen than gs2? you are highly misinformed even the original galaxy s has a better display than the LG.
10. som (Posts: 768; Member since: 10 Nov 2009)
Samsung are making most components for their smartphones and tablets and LG bought some components from other companies.
Samsung is a winner in research and developments in components that Apple and others are depend on.
38. PHONE_FREAK (Posts: 51; Member since: 20 Oct 2010)
LG is not bad in that department though.
12. IOS5 (unregistered)
@Lzoe yes LG 2x has better screen its LCD IPS panel the screen looks like blasma TV and Super Amoled looks like LED TV?! i try out the Super Amoled with galaxy s and LG opitmus 2x i know that Super Amoled plus its diffrent than normal Super Amoled but still it looks like Super Amoled. still prefer Sony Ericcson Arc Mobile BRAVIA engine screen for watching youtube video and movies belive that its better than both!
14. Heatfan316 (unregistered)
Good to see the optimus keep up with that Samsung beast I have a g2x should be even closer when the g2x gets 2.3 but I still love that Samsung
15. TT (unregistered)
One thing that should be mentioned:
The Galaxy S II is capped on 60 frames per second, while the Optimus 2X is capped on 120 frames per second. This tends to skew results for GPU benchmarks. (Note how much more frames it's getting in the relatively weak "Planet" test in Quadrant. Meanwhile, the S II would've likely gotten much more in Nenamark if it hadn't been capped.)
16. ragmuffin (unregistered)
Okay, we need to bear in mind that the Galaxy S 2 runs on a 1.2 GHz dual core chipset, whereas the Optimus 2x runs on a 1 GHz dual core CPU. That's about 400 MHz of difference right there. It's almost like you're comparing the Wildfire with the Incredible S. Plus the GS2 runs on Gingerbread whereas the Optimus 2x runs on Froyo. Upgrade it to Gingerbread and then we might have a fair comparison. As all may know, dual core CPUs run better and faster on Gingerbread or Honeycomb. But of course, we can't take away anything from the Galaxy S 2. It is a remarkable device indeed.
In terms of display though, there is no match to Samsung's Super AMOLED Plus. It probably is the best there has been and to be honest that has been their major selling point, the displays. So this seems like a slightly unfair comparison to be honest. I personally would like a comparison between the Motorola Atrix 4G and the Optimus 2x. That would be more fair I think. Good day.
19. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
fagmuffin.. that isnt 2 cores running at 1200... its 2 cores running at 600 to make 1200....lol.
46. ragmuffin (unregistered)
Wow, I have a lot to learn from a nutpicker like you. So according to you the Galaxy S 2 has four cores? LOL :D
You crack me up man, big time :P
51. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
and where did i say anything about it running a quadcore? lol.
66. superpiff (unregistered)
i believe your wrong. if im not mistaken its 2 1.2 gigahertz processers. why would they need to give you 2 processors for 200 extra megahertz when old phones run 1 gigahertz or 1000 megahertz with only one processor that doesnt make sense broseph.i guess ignorance is bliss
20. taz (unregistered)
@remixfa... i think its you who is wrong lol its 2 cores running at 1.2ghz.....follow this link if you dont believe me.
http://asia.cnet.com/ask/is-a-1ghz-dual-core-cpu-e quivalent-to-a-2ghz-chip-62207801.htm
48. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
your link is dead.
but yes, i was incorrect about how the clock speed is calculated. I was thinking back to an ariticle about power consumption and how one of the cores turn off and the other will drop mhz to conserve battery when not in use.. which makes them better juice sippers than single core...
Still.. ragmuffin, going from 1ghz to 1.2 ghz is not 400mhz of difference which is what i was commenting on to begin with. Its 1 chip running at 1200mhz with 2 cores in it. that doesnt mean its really a 2400mhz chip, which is what you seem to be implying by the 400mhz comment. The cores arent added together to make a new number. the mhz is the mhz.
21. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
for those confused with dual core the clock speed remains the same but the ability of the device to process data is faster depending on how many cores are used
hope this helps clear this =)

Check this out and Unless something is wrong with your eyes, you'll have to agree that even the original galaxy s has a better screen than the LG Optimus

I was just curious about them,but I HATE arguments about Android vs. Android phones,'cause both of them are very good.I just bought my SGS(1),and now I'm very happy with it,well satisfied as well.
But guys,please don't hate LG,or SGS2,hate iPhone,Apple,or everything else,but not Android.We must hold together.Share things,enjoy things together,not flaming each other,b'cause somebody loves LG,somebody loves Samsung.
Love both of them.Peace.and hate Apple,if you want to hate on something.
33. protozeloz (Posts: 5396; Member since: 16 Sep 2010)
It's also the magic of android you can love Samsung and hate LG even if both deliver a good user experience, but cmon I agreed with someone that has a low end phone (hate those) things can be possible

Where is this supposed everywhere? Be real, the Android fans bring up iPhone comparisons first. iPhone fans are in the minority if you want to be honest, or at least they seldomly comment on these articles. Go ahead thumbs down me. It seems almost every logical and rational comment is thumbs down because it's contrary to this Android crave. Grow up.

MARTINSBURG - At the 2012 W.V. Department of Transportation Transportation and Planning and Programming Conference, guests heard of the potential community and business benefits resulting from a completed pedestrian pathway study on Edwin Miller Boulevard.

Mark Dyck of William H. Gordon Associates, Inc., gives a joint presentation with Kathy Mason of the Berkeley County Development Authority on the results of a pedestrian pathway study for Edwin MIller Boulevard at the 2012 W.V. Department of Transportation's Tranportation, Planning and Programming Conference.
With numerous apartment complexes surrounding Edwin Miller Boulevard and more than 24,000 vehicles driving through the area a day, a study was conducted to provide options for safely organizing foot and vehicle traffic, as well as increasing access to area businesses.
First conceived in 2009, the pathway study grew from a desire of businesspeople along Edwin Miller Boulevard for a professional-looking northern gateway into the city of Martinsburg.
With funding provided by various organizations and grants, two studies were performed to determine what options were available for a pedestrian pathway and the cost of the options. The first study specifically focused on Edwin Miller Boulevard while the second study encompassed a larger surrounding area.
"One of the issues out there was there are a lot of pedestrians and a lot of motorized wheelchairs from the apartments that are along the boulevard. There was a big safety issue as the cars and motorized wheelchairs vie for the same space," said Kathy Mason, Business Programs Manager for the Berkeley County Development Authority.
Since Edwin Miller Boulevard, originally designed as a five-lane road, consists of two lanes and a center turn lane, there is ample space to construct a pedestrian pathway.
As part of the study, a survey was distributed to residents, including the occupants of the 375 apartments distributed among the boulevard. According to Mason, approximately half of the apartment complexes have a degree of assistance for the handicap.
"Seventy-three percent of respondents said they would walk along the boulevard if there was a safe way to do it. The other thing we found out through the survey was most of their destinations were the grocery store, restaurants, the bank, the CVS drugstore and Sheetz, so all the businesses along there would benefit from this pathway," Mason said.
Options developed by the initial study for Edwin Miller Boulevard include an eight-foot pathway, in-line transit stops, landscaping and crosswalk signs for motorists and benches.
The second study included connecting Edwin Miller Boulevard to surrounding sidewalks and forging additional pedestrian pathways to locations such as multiple schools, parks, residential areas and businesses.
"In talking with the businesses along there, there's some agreement that they would help keep the pathway clean. Honestly, we haven't gotten as far as maintenance," Mason said.
Although initial estimates in 2009 predicted the project could be completed in three years, Mason believes the project will be finished in six years from the 2009 start, in 2015. The study results have been presented to the Berkeley County Planning Department and the city of Martinsburg.
"Hopefully what we've done with the Edwin Miller Boulevard area is to enhance the idea that pedestrian mobility is important and give both Berkeley County and the city of Martinsburg a framework the can follow when they're looking at these issues in the future," said Mark Dyck, of William H. Gordon Associates Inc., who performed the study.

You asked what was new and you got your answers. He hadn't made 147 for nearly 2 years. NEW. He fought at 154 for a tune-up against a nobody and looked horrible. NEW. He was caught with Hydroxycut while trying to cut to the 150 CW. NEW. Hell, he'd been suspended for a year. NEW. But in your demented view, none of that changes anything, right? It's just par for the course.

I will explain one last time.
They had found a substance that Margarito put in his drink according to Manny's camp. Being that Margarito is a known cheat Roach was concerned it was PEDs or a masking agent (see article below: a banned substance) . So they wanted Margarito tested.
Now, that is what the controversy was about that was stated in the article. It was not PEDs since I'm sure we would know about it after the testing but that was the concern.
The thing is that it was a claim by Manny's camp that it was used to improve performance but then they fought, Margarito lost and that is that. Nobody that I can recall at anytime said that Margarito was weight drained. That is the controversy that your article was about ... it was not about Margarito being weight drained as you tried to prove!!!
It's ironic that you posted an article and can't comprehend what you posted yet you insult people due to YOUR problem with comprehension. I tried to assist you to understand but you were more into trying to criticize than see that I was trying to make you understand.
Read this article as it has more details on the matter:

LMAO, your're a moron. You raised the issue asking for an article that said he was too drained. You got an article that states he was caught with Hydroxycut and struggled to make the weight. You do realize what Hydroxycut is used for? Christ, they must have admitted you for a 5150 when Nappiao got put to sleep.

Oh right, so when you asked what was different and got objective answers that didn't suit you, you want to move onto subjective bullsh1t like 'he looked way healthier'. Sure buddy. Good job. I mean he looked awesome right? A plodding come forward heavy bag with no hand speed who ate punches until his orbital bone snapped. He looked phucking WONDERFUL. Really.
And for the record, the 150 CW request by Cotto was lame. Just as lame as Nappiao's CW demand. But nothing as bad as Nappiao's ridiculous 148 CW demand to rematch Cotto. That sh1t was 110% pure cowardice.

And no, none of Pac's Cw requests is as bad as Cotto's. CWs have been employed forever by smaller guys moving up. They are never used by a champ to handicap a divisional challenger, much less a one eyed non contender.

I asked for proof that Margarito was weight drained. Yes. Did you provide me with that proof? No!!!!
What you provided me with was about the controversy that happened prior to the fight. That is, the claim by Manny's team that Margarito was taking a substance that can improve his performance. If you read the article that I posted, it stated:
"Margarito put something in his drink and the Manny Pacquiao camp said it was Hydroxycut, which has ephedra, a banned substance. Ephedra is basically like the drug speed and would give a fighter a big advantage."
You would not be taking Hydroxycut on fight night to lose weight so Manny's camp thought it must be to enhance his performance.
It's possible that Margarito did have what Manny's camp claimed. It's also possible that Margarito uses it to help him lose weight easier. This is all speculation. Again, the controversy was about what did Margarito put in his drink the night of the fight. That is what your article and mine was about. Neither your article nor mine had any detail that Margarito was weight drained. So you fail!!!

when new love is found and all of your time is consumed by talking to or being with your boo, one is said to be at love camp. Usually involves ditching your bros during important events such as the Super Bowl or guys night.

Overall Assassin's Creed II is a masterpiece of gaming. The developers, Ubisoft, did an outstanding job with the first release, and this is simply an extension of what is considered by many to be the greatest game ever made.
Super Gamer Dude
Xbox 360
A continuation of Assassin's Creed, the story continues where that story left off with Desmond Miles escaping from the Templars with the help of Lucy and joining her group of resistance fighters. Desmond takes a look back at his ancestors' past roles as assassins. While about this he takes on the past role of Ezio in 15th century Firenze. There are a lot of links to the previous game so it helps if you have played it, but you'll get by without it anyway.
Assassin's Creed was thought by some to be rather repetitive but that's not the case here. The missions are of many varieties. The side missions can become a bit tedious but their only reason is to gain some extra money and if you don't want it don't do them. Ezio is a champion freerunner and a bit of a dab hand stabbing, making for acrobatics and creatively gorey murder methods. Even the great Leonardo Da Vinci lends a hand.
Ezio's capers make money which can buy weapons, ammunition and other sundry equipment. He can also use it to pimp his home city of Monteriggioni and in return a more beautiful city is received and a cut of the profits. There's also lots of collecting to do; weapons, paintings, armor, and the like.
All this is set in beautifully built cities which are all worlds in themselves and open to adventure. Running over rooftops as you do, pushing down some baddies, or quietly sauntering around town, please yourself.
The music adds to the ambiance and there is also a commentary from people passing by when you're going nuts doing acrobatics and you can always listen in on covert conversations.
The camera can be difficult at times with nonsensical angles, and sometimes the images seem to have a mkind of their own, and during races this can be a problem. But for the most the part the visuals are up to the job.
Then the DRM problem; any problems with the internet or internet servers and you are doomed. However most of us will be OK in this respect. However we could do without the problem and it will cost sales.
The game itself is well playable and visually attractive. High marks all round.

The FBI is expanding its investigation into parking meter thefts in Buffalo to at least two former city employees who collected thousands of dollars in quarters as part of their job.
Sources close to the investigation said the targets are Mark S. Carlson and Franklin A. Lopez Jr., two parking meter collectors who are no longer on the job.
The FBI declined to comment, but three sources familiar with the investigation said it began after Kevin Helfer, the city's parking commissioner, found Carlson and Lopez with an unauthorized second vault in their city-owned vehicle.
"They worked together on one truck," said one of the sources. "They were a team."
Helfer would not comment on the expanded investigation but at a news conference said, "If there were others, they will be prosecuted."
Buffalo Police Commissioner Daniel Derenda also indicated the investigation is still open.
"We are looking at other people," he told reporters. "The case is ongoing. There may be more to it."
Lopez and Carlson could not be reached to comment Friday, but one source said they left their City Hall jobs after Helfer discovered them with the second vault.
Their job, according to sources, was to empty parking meter canisters filled with quarters into a portable vault they transported to and from City Hall.
The allegation is that they used an unauthorized second vault to steal from the city, sources said.
The news of a growing FBI investigation came on the same day that James Bagarozzo, a former parking meter mechanic, was sentenced to 2½ years in prison for his role in a separate scam.
Quarter by quarter, meter by meter, Bagarozzo accumulated quite a fortune. By his own admission, he stole $210,000 during an eight-year period.
"The facts in this case are egregious," U.S. District Judge Richard J. Arcara said in sentencing Bagarozzo to prison on Friday. "He systematically stole money … from parking meters he was entrusted to repair."
Bagarozzo is one of two parking meter mechanics arrested by the FBI in December 2011 and accused of breaking and rigging meters they were supposed to be fixing.
Both he and Lawrence Charles, a meter mechanic who admitted stealing $15,000 in quarters, pleaded guilty last year to felony charges of theft and conversion.
Almost overnight, their crimes garnered local and national headlines.
"What began as a theft of nickels and dimes in the end was the equivalent of a major bank heist," U.S. Attorney William J. Hochul Jr. said at a news conference Friday.
Several law enforcement officials referred to the brazen nature of Bagarozzo's crimes – they showed a video of him stuffing his pockets with quarters – and suggested his wrongdoing strikes at the heart of what public servants are supposed to do.
"These series of actions by Bagarozzo represent the ultimate betrayal of the public's trust," said Holly L. Hubert, assistant special agent in charge of the FBI in Buffalo,
Helfer, the man investigators credit with discovering the thefts, called Bagarozzo's sentencing the culmination of a case that took thousands of man hours to build.
"I think today is about justice, about rebuilding the public's trust," he told reporters.
The video showing Bagarozzo taking quarters out of the meters and then stuffing them into his pocket was taken by a team of private investigators hired by the city.
The owner of the firm, Empire Investigations in Buffalo, spoke for the first time Friday about their work on the case, an investigation that took nearly three months, 800 to 900 man hours and included surveillance and undercover video cameras.
"I've had a litany of cases involving corporate theft," said Empire owner Paul H. Lawrence. "But in my 20 years, I've never seen anything of this magnitude."
Bagarozzo, 58, said he began stealing from the city when he became ill in 2003 and grew worried about providing for his wife and two teenage girls. He was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease, a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the gastrointestinal system.
Over time, he also started to gamble at local casinos and, according to his lawyer, James P. Harrington, his hobby eventually became an addiction.
"It's no less an addiction than a drug addiction," Harrington said in court Friday. "And over time, Mr. Bagarozzo succumbed to it."
Bagarozzo, in a plea to the court, suggested his arrest may have saved his life.
"I have hit rock bottom," he told Arcara. And now "I have come back to life."
Prosecutors tell a far different story of the Bagarozzo they know.
They describe his actions as an orchestrated scheme, a pattern of criminal activity that lasted eight years and occurred on an almost daily basis.
They also claim that by the time he was caught, Bagarozzo was spending half of his work day stealing from the city.
"The crimes committed by James Bagarozzo and Lawrence Charles were massive violations of the public trust," Assistant U.S. Attorney Maura O'Donnell told Arcara.
O'Donnell said Bagarozzo started out stealing between $5,000 and $10,000 a year, but the thefts escalated to the point where he was taking home about $1,000 a week in quarters.
Bagarozzo, she told the court, broke about 70 to 75 meters as part of his scheme and rigged them so the quarters would remain in the upper compartment instead of falling into the more secure lower compartment.
He would then take out fistfuls of quarters, stuff them in his pocket, deposit them in a bag in his city-owned truck and take them back to his house during his lunch break.
Bagarozzo, a longtime city employee who once served as head of the animal shelter, has repaid about 75 percent of what he stole from the city and promised to pay the balance after his sentencing.
The money he repaid City Hall includes about $54,000 the FBI seized from his home, including $40,000 hidden in his bedroom ceiling.
Well known in North Buffalo, where he has been politically active for decades, Bagarozzo submitted more than 130 letters of support before his sentencing, including one from a Buffalo Common Council member.
"Through his political activity, his involvement in the community and his interactions with those around him, I have found Jim to be a loyal friend, a devoted husband and father and a caring individual," Delaware Council Member Michael J. LoCurto said in a letter to Arcara.
LoCurto said he has known Bagarozzo since he first became involved in politics 14 years ago.

Past editorial Intern: Amy (Meyer) Roady
Amy (Meyer) Roady, 2000
University of Illinois
Currently, I serve as communications director for the Illinois Soybean Association (ISA). Prior to working for ISA, I was a 4-H youth development educator for University of Illinois Extension, regional editor for three weekly newspapers and copy editor/page designer for a daily newspaper. During fall 2012, I also taught an introductory agricultural communications class at the University of Illinois. I also have done guest lectures at Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism, where I received my master's degree in journalism in 2002.
My husband, Patrick, and I live in Mahomet, Ill. We have two sons, Brandon and Jacob.
Since graduating, I have supported the University of Illinois Ag Communications program through serving on the Ag Communications Alumni Leadership Council, hosting students during job shadow programs, lecturing to classes and speaking on the program's behalf. In fall 2012, I received the College of ACES Young Alumni Award.
I also have been an active member of the American Agricultural Editors' Association. This year, I am serving as the Ag Media Summit program chair. I also serve on the membership committee. Last year, I received a stipend from AAEA's Professional Improvement Fund (PIF) to attend the 2012 IFAJ Congress in Sweden.
The internship was extremely rewarding and gave me an opportunity to serve the dairy industry while developing my journalism skills. The internship fueled my interest in journalism and magazine publishing. It's what led me to specialize in magazine publishing for my master's degree at Northwestern University. I learned a lot that summer. My communications skills improved, but more importantly I learned what it's like to work in the industry. The experience, along with my education, laid the groundwork for my career.

More than 4 million babies are born in the United States each year and doctors say the number one problem with new mothers following the birth of their child is postpartum depression.
Unfortunately, many women try to keep this condition a secret and doing so could have devastating consequences.
New mothers are often disappointed and even ashamed when the joy they expect after having a baby turns into sadness, fear or both.
One woman, "Amanda," described her experience.
"I felt scared, panicked, doomsday, like trapped,just overwhelmed, a feeling of kind of helplessness, you know, like everything is on you," she explained.
A Bumpy Emotional Ride
Dr. Theresa Whibley has been delivering babies for decades and warn new mothers to expect a bumpy ride after giving birth.
"I think many women are not prepared for some of the emotional effects of having a baby," she said. "It's obviously a very happy time usually for most families, but you forget that there are great hormonal changes."
"There are great changes in family dynamics, certainly there are huge changes in sleep and it's really amazing to me that women do as well as they do in the post partum phase," Whibley continued.
The truth is, it's normal to feel sad or scared after giving birth. It's called the baby blues and 80 percent of women get them. But if these feelings last longer than two weeks, it's likely postpartum depression and should be treated professionally for the sake of the mother and the baby.
Baby Affected for Years
"Children of depressed moms lag behind other children," said Dr. Christine Truman, a psychiatrist who specializes in postpartum depression.
Dr. Truman says if mothers don't get help for postpartum depression, it can cause problems for their children such as delayed language development, difficulty bonding with people, behavioral problems like increased crying, anger and difficulty regulating their emotions.
Dr. Truman explains these impairments could last for years.
"The interesting thing is that the degree of impairment in the children seems to be related to the duration of the mom's depression," she said. "So the longer a mother is depressed the more likely and the more serious the impairment would be in the child."
Psychosis Symptoms
About one in five mothers suffers from postpartum depression. Symptoms include sadness, guilt or fear, withdrawing from people, sleeping too much or too little, having trouble with their memory, concentration or making decisions.
Although postpartum depression is a very serious condition, there is something worse known as postpartum psychosis. This is a very rare type of disorder that affects about one in 1,000 mothers. It is said to have been what Andrea Yates was suffering from when she drowned her five children in Texas in 2001.
Dr. Truman says women and their families should take immediate action if symptoms of postpartum psychosis appear.
"A mother experiences extreme agitation, extreme mood swings confusion about what's real, disorientation, disorganized thoughts or speech and often hallucinations and delusions. It's really an emergency situation," Truman explained.
Family, Friends Must Help
Many new mothers don't realize they have postpartum problems, so it's often up to the people around them to recognize the warning signs and urge them to get help.
Treatment usually involves talk therapy and anti-depressants that are safe for breastfeeding. Amanda is doing both.
"Last month has been the happiest month I've had in quite a long time, just because I feel like I'm getting normal again," she said.
Removing the Stigma
Truman is interested is removing the stigma attached to postpartum depression so more people come forward to get the treatment they need.
"Postpartum depression -- it's a biological illness. It's a medical illness," she said. "It's not caused by a weak personality. It's not caused by a failure on the mother to do what she's supposed to do. It's a biological illness, so it's not something a mom has any control over."
To illustrate that point, examine the change in hormones a woman experiences before, during and after pregnancy. The levels of progesterone and estrogen continue to rise steadily throughout the 40 weeks of gestation until reaching very high levels. Then within 24 hours of giving birth those levels go crashing down to pre-pregnancy levels.
Although hormones contribute to postpartum depression, so does the environment. For instance, women who live on military bases are at higher risk, because they're separated from their extended family and often their husband. I
n fact, women in western cultures like the U.S. have higher rates of postpartum depression, because they are more likely to raise their children virtually alone, compared with other cultures where women share all the responsibilities of child birth and raising children with family and community.
Because of this, a good support system is invaluable and women can go a long way toward preventing postpartum depression by making connections to people in church, their families or their neighborhood.
Reaching Out to New Mothers
Likewise, people who reach out to expectant or new mothers can provide a meaningful service to them.
Deanna Otto brings food to new moms who don't have family nearby. She often does housework or watches the baby while mom gets the sleep she craves.
Otto also spends time talking to new mothers and pays attention to how they are doing emotionally. This type of service is something she recommends to all Christians.
"It's just the right thing to do," she said. "I feel better as a person helping out somebody else. They really appreciate it -- just those hours -- it gives them a little reprieve so that they can feel like they can do it all themselves again."
While motherhood is a blessing, it's not always easy. Paying attention to how a new mother is feeling can avoid heartache for her and her baby.*Originally aired December 15, 2009.

Those we love don't go away; they walk beside us every day. Her family knows that's where she will stay; beside them all, every day.

Mr. Groh is not as straight as you think. Mr. Groh and Shirley were trying to make a position for him as a legal Deputy with in the Department they just ran out of time. I stated it before no one with Shirley ties should be appointed. What would be the difference between Boober and Groh both already have a Judge for a wife. You people realy do not know what is going on in Jefferson County do you!! Take a look at Shirley's Face Book page that just started last Friday and ask youself why are two of the Jefferson County Commissioners listed as his friends. Does not seem to me they are looking out for the tax payers.

Jessie Jones is Shirleys best friend and has been seen with Brunswick,Mills and Fletcher at Shirley's house since his resignation. More than half of the Deputies do not support these gentelman for the job but can not voice their concerns because State Code will not let them. No one should be appointed to the position that has any ties to Bobby Shirley or the Department will be no different and more law suits will be coming for the tax payers to pay for.

Bobby Shirley was a good sheriff. Need more like him. Criminals lose their rights when they commit the crime but somehow there is always a greedy laywer with no morals ready to defend them and give them more rights than the non offenders. As far as shooting at his wifes lover- can't blame a man for that!

Each commissioner selecting several names than compare the lists to see which 3 get an interview sounds like a popularity contest to me. They all deserve an interview than reduce to the top five from the group, not the top 2 like the JCESA did, than re-interview in an in depth interview for final selection. It should be the top five just in case your top one turns down the job and you have to select the one you did not want but put up against the one you wanted to make him look even better.

How can Earl Ballenger be on the list he ran as a Republican in the election so that means he has had to change his party to be eligible so was he really a Republican than or is he really a Democrat now talk about flip flop. Sounds like he will do anything to be Sheriff. Do we need that. Not to mention he is older than dirt just as Boober is.

If you have been looking for a car but you?re on a very tight budget, maybe you should start to look from bunch of cool cars listed on Kelley Blue Book used cars near you. For some reason, KBB, which is a standard guidebook for automobile buyers, has become very popular among individuals who are looking for quality card at very affordable rates.
Since Kelley Blue Book was launched some 96 years ago, this has become a favorite car destination for people who are looking for new or used cars and know their true value. For those who aren?t that familiar about this online resource works, this facility basically works as a standardized online resource where automobile dealers, buyers, as well as insurance companies refer to in knowing the true and updated market value of such a car.
Why use this facility?
Aside from providing useful about a vehicle?s market value, this facility has also become very popular because of its updated and wide range of information. In fact, many people the Kelley Blue Book used cars, which features useful information that every car buyer or owner should know about.
But one of the questions that people ask is why on earth should they ever have to use that resource when they can directly ask the seller or dealer of the vehicle about the car?s true value and whatnot. But the truth of the matter is, with all the complexities of automobile is quite a hard task.
Thus, getting as much help as possible is very important for people who don?t want to buy a crappy car or any kinds of vehicle. Since in the first place buying a car, whether it is brand new or used, is indeed a huge expense, one should know well enough about the vehicle as much as possible.
Other information provided by the Kelley Blue Book
The book also includes helpful information on how to assess the true value of the car after an accident. With this information, buyers can have an educated decision on what to do next after figuring themselves on a vehicular accident of some sorts that affected significantly affected their car?s overall value.
Since the company has been reporting updated market value of all sorts of vehicles, industry players particularly automotive dealers are considering the Kelley Blue Book as a reliable resource for unbiased and honest vehicle information.
Not just people can get valuable information about a certain vehicle, the company also provides information that will enable consumers have an educated decision before buying a certain vehicle. Information such as the car?s specification, pros and cons, and current market value are available for public access.
A smart choice before buying a car
It is a common practice for most people to do some research before buying a certain car. But knowing where to get that information is another story. Sometimes, people end up on the wrong information making them an misinformed buyer. Buying a car and not knowing what kind of car you have just bought is the same as throwing your money in the trash.
This is the main point why creators of the Kelley Blue Book started their business some 96 years ago. In a bid to help buyers become informed and educated buyers, they have provided readily available information that anyone has an access on anytime.
At the end of the day, spending your hard-earned money to a car that won?t last longer than one year or its value isn?t its ?real? market value. So it is really important to be informed before spending even a penny of your hard-earned money.

Surfing Inside
Personally, I do prefer not having to say "don't touch" very often. Smudges don't really bother me.
(Rebecca Vizard stockings used as boxing gloves.)
This battered old upholstered bench of mine is still the most used, kid-friendly piece I own because it's sturdy (at least so far), low to the ground, has relatively soft corners and sports a forgiving print that hides smudges.
I'm happy to see it enjoyed, but I wouldn't encourage skate board jumps from it. Aside from obvious safety issues, there's the concern of promoting a rock star mentality that says it's okay to trash other people's things.
I also wouldn't serve a birthday cake on it, but I don't mind cups with lids. (The bench is my coffee table.) Blurry boundaries, maybe. These days, when it comes to kids and furniture, everyone has different views on what is appropriate and what isn't.
When my parents were growing up, the "inside rules" were fairly strict and universal. Outside, though, they were free; allowed to climb tall trees and explore their neighborhood on bikes without adults around.
[Fast forward a couple of decades; Lisa Borgnes Giramonti's husband in the 1970s.]
Today, most of my friends teach their toddlers never to stand in tipsy dining chairs: "You have a choice, either kneel or sit." But they are much looser with sofas. I was curious to learn how designer-moms and tastemaker-moms handle things around the house. Here's what a few had to say.
Laura Casey is a North Carolina-based interior designer and mother of boys who cut her decorating teeth working with Victoria Hagan and Cullman and Kravis. She is an ace at offering her clients chic, attainable options that are always compatible with family life. (The tailored table skirt below solved one client's entry hall woes.)
About her own house Laura says, "The sofas in the family room get jumped on literally everyday. Just today Brooks [age three] put all of the cushions and pillows on the floor and told me he was building a rocket ship. My thought is pretend play is better than having the TV on all afternoon! Plus, how tiring to yell at boys all the time to sit down. Coleman [almost age two] follows right along. While I do let them do this there are rules about behaving at other people's houses. They know that these sofas are for jumping but that is not a universal rule."
And she adds, "A few months after Brooks was born, formula spilled all over sofas that I had just reupholstered. It was the first time that I had to think about what was ahead of me...I decided then not to sweat it and to keep to that [philosophy] going forward. Up on a mantle out of reach, there are a few things that are precious to me for sentimental reasons more than monetary value. "
Laura's kid-proofing tips:
1. Proseal the fabrics
2. Put eggshell on the walls
3. Use washable crayons
4. Keep Herend and crystal out of reach.
"Other than that, they can pretty much play 'pirates' all day long. I always think a house becomes a home when it is really lived in and my boys do just that!"
Mrs. Blandings, also the mother of three young boys, explains that no room is off limits in the dream house. However, "All food must stay in the kitchen (or dining room if we are eating there.) We have a shoe basket by our back door but it is for the ease of finding them rather than for cleanliness."
She does confess to coveting that low white Bill Sofield tusk table from Baker. Several years ago when she showed it to Mr. Blandings, he said, "Will you be mad if the boys jump off of it?"
And she replied, "Well, yes, it's lacquer; it will scratch."
"Then pass," he advised. Today Mrs. Blandings says children understand limits, but "restraining from launching yourself off of a table with tusk legs might be too much to ask."
Lisa Borgnes Giramonti is mom to seven-year-old Luca.
She says, "Although he's learning to treat things with respect, 'Spills happen' is still my daily mantra. I have a newfound appreciation for scratches and stains; they season a home and give it character. My concern is more about safety. I try to curb Luca's impulse to careen at top speed down the stairs, for example. But kids still need to have fun. When it came to jumping on the daybed in the living room, instead of forbidding my son to do it, I enrolled him in a gymnastics trampoline class...and now he springs with infinitely more balance and control. He knows it's a special treat that can only be done at our house, with me looking on!"
Lisa's other kid-proofing rules:
1. Sticky fingers go on your napkin and not on the chair you're sitting on.
2. Food belongs in the kitchen, unless it's popcorn, which can be eaten anywhere.
3. Permanent markers are for grownups; washable markers are for everybody.
BTW: Lisa's family has something else that really loosens up a room: a guitar. Lately I've been noticing the instrument in so many of my saved magazine tears.
For the next round of pictures, I may have to borrow my nine-year-old neighbor's.

I LOVE the fabric on your bench...love, love, love.
- Style Court said...
Thanks Elizabeth! I'm afraid it's become over-exposed but it makes me happy.
- Alicia said...
My best advice came a long time ago when a man in Kansas was being interviewed after just losing everything to a tornado...
"Never cry for anything that can't cry for you."
Amen to that.
- Mrs. Blandings said...
Ah! I forgot permanent markers and am so glad Lisa remembered. They are like knives at our house - totally off limits.

I have an off-white sectional that I took delivery of when I was on maternity leave nineteen years ago. Upholstered, not slip-covered. Most people thought I was crazy buying a white sofa with a baby on the way, cats, a dog and a husband with a dirty job. But I wanted white so that was that. Over the years, it's survived wine spills, blood stains, chocolate chip cookie crumbs and who knows what else. It's hosted big family holiday parties, little girl slumber parties and grown-up dinner parties. I never really babied it but we didn't eat pizza on it every night either. I deep cleaned it last week (an every-other-year or so affair), and it still looks great. I've wished many times to have slips made for it or to replace it with a slip-covered version, but it cleans up so well and is so comfortable and has been with us for so long, I just can't. Not yet.
You can have a stylish home and kids at the same time, but like Laura Casey said, you learn to not sweat it when things get a little messy. And you learn to spot clean like a pro. And, if you're lucky, you buy a magic sofa.
- Shani said...
That is a great bench. It is a beautiful pattern and I love that it hides stains well! It's amazing how children- no matter how many - can fill every inch of a home. I used to think that our living room would be off limits... now it is where we have toddler dance parties.
- Barbara said...
As a kid, neither I nor my brother would have ever thought of jumping on the sofa nor on the beds. It just wasn't done, but I don't remember ever being told not too. I guess it's a generational thing.
- home before dark said...
I'm with Barbara. I think children need to learn rules or be born knowing how to slipcover, remove stains, how to repair drywall. Letting children be children is not loving them. It is abdicating responsibility. Do you think for a minute you will be able to do in their rooms (when they grow up) what they have done in yours? You don't have to be a monster. You just have to set the rules and some space for them to be free (like in a park).
- Style Court said...
Hi HBD, thanks for commenting.
I feel like I should add that everyone I talked to believes in rules and boundaries. And personally, I didn't mean it is cute when kids disrespect their surroundings. Everyone seems to have a different point of view about what is reasonable and what is too much.
I also meant this post to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek. Obviously adults have to be in charge.
- Style Court said...
I'll try to follow up with the etiquette guidelines from decades past. It will be fun to compare and contrast :)
- annechovie said...
Fun post, Courtney. There's a fine line between teaching respect and being dubbed a "meanie". Tough call...I agree with you, everyone just has to feel their own way.
- Sophie @ Century Finds said...
My kids know which sofas belong to children (upstairs) and which belong to adults and may only be sat on (downstairs). Apart from that, we make sure to have sturdy coffee tables which survive being climbed on.
I also make sure they know the rules are different outside the home. The first time we hosted a childrens party I was taken aback at how all the children except mine thought it was OK to jump and walk all over my lounge furniture - while their parents looked on. So maybe I am stricter than I think ;-)
- Liz said...
What a great topic! And timely too, as I'm expecting my first child to arrive any day now and have been giving this very subject much thought and preparing myself to let go a bit. Thanks for having these stylish moms share their thoughts!
- Style Court said...
Congrats Liz and Godspeed !!
- Sanity Fair said...
This is just such a great post - I don't have kids and hadn't honestly thought a lot about most of these things (except when little visitors come, and I realize how ill prepared I am). Learned a lot - and really enjoyed your unique idea to ask designers WITH children how they handle it. Love the picture arrangements reflected in the mirror too - so well done.
- pve design said...
Wonderful, one British Mom at the park simply stated to her son, "slides are for sliding and stairs are for climbing" but boys do have a mind to climb slides, and to slide on steps and down banisters...
I think exposing children to fine things but then the things that have the "fortitude" to withstand the test of time...things that get better with age or have some sort of childhood residue left behind are better.
All the Mothers you have posted emulate this, teaching their children to live and love life beautifully.
- le style et la matière said...
I don't have any problem with my own children, it's when their friends come over that I feel nervous- but I know the little darlings aren't bouncing off the walls in their OWN homes. Makes me wonder how mine behave elsewhere!
- Karen said...
Fun post. And hey even adults have spills...
- bluehydrangea said...
Love this post! I have 3 children and God love them they are pigs!! thank goodness for white slip-covers and spot cleaner. No rooms are off limits and I'll have nicer fabrics when I don't have a one-year-old!
- Style Court said...
Sanity -- I appreciate that!
- Karena said...
You want your children and grandchildren to be curious and inquisitive , also respectful....some things are instinctive, like the desire to touch interesting objects ( I do it all the time!)
I am a big fan of the oriental rugs, spill after spill, they just hold up and look better more worn in!
These rooms are beautiful! I think music brings a lot of rooms to life whether it is a piano or guitar. Recently I saw the new Luxe magazine in L.A., I think it was designer Tia Zoldan and the room was shot with a piano and a guitar and it was all about chic kid friendly-ness!
- Laura Casey Interiors said...
Enjoyed reading all these comments. I may let my boys jump on the old sofas but I am tough as nails on manners...
- style chronicle said...
As a mother of four, I don't hold any of my possesions too tightly. I want my children to be free to color outside the lines and live in the moment as much as possilble.
That said, there is a need to teach our children to care for the things that they live with and own and to be equally respectful in the homes others. It is a fine balance.
I don't mind the stains and smudges in my home. They tell the story of my life. In my opinion, a slightly worn room is quite elegant. Afterall, true style is not caring too much.
Great post!
- Meg said...
This is such a great post! Love reading behind the scenes; Laura is one of my favorite bloggers and a new friend so it was wonderful to see her included!
- Style Court said...
Hi Meg, thanks for stopping by. Laura is terrific!
Love seeing my stocking ornaments being used as boxing gloves, when my two kids were little, if I needed a break I would let them draw all over my back with washable markers. Then we would get in the tub and they would soap up my back and wash it off. Closest thing I could get to a massage in My tiny town! Loved this post!

Isn't there manga for older Super Sentai series like GoRanger, JAKQ , BATTLE FEVER J , etc? It would be great to see titles like that instead of just Power Rangers etc. What is interesting is finding the old English dubbed SUPER SENTAI like on YouTube etc and conventions. It's easy to find BIOMAN , FLASHMAN , JETMAN etc , but finding the originals in English is very hard like,
TURBORANGERS (not Carrangers).
These used to get shown on low powered UHF stations like back in the late 1970's in places like New York , Hawaii , Philadelphia , etc , and of course over in Asia in places like the Philipines , China , Hong Kong , etc. Finally we see more old copies being found online etc. But it would be great if some anime company like this one would find and sell the complete series on DVD. I don't think the original companies that translated them decades ago before Power Rangers ever existed are around any more, so maybe it would be easy for you guys to get the rights from Japan? What would really be great is if someday soon they could start English dubbing old Japanese scifi shows and use computer animation if need be, to match mouth movement for translating. That would be better than Hollywood/etc's way of chopping out all the Asian actors & replacing them with Americans as we saw in Power Rangers. Translations more we saw in 60's ULTRAMAN , SPACE GIANTS , GIANT ROBO , WATARI (AKAKAGE) , SPECTREMAN and so on were much better than what we saw with VR TROOPERS, SYBER SQUAD, BEETLE BORGS, etc. Hey how about making some deals and English dubbing Godzilla's ZONE FIGHTER series or the Japanese SPIDERMAN ?
So is it true that Kamen Rider Dragon Knight will return next season now? That would be great. Finding manga for Kamen Rider isn't that easy. It would be great if the original English dubbed versions of Kamen Rider started to get released on a larger scale now. It's a lot easier to find the Kamen Rider Kuga & KAMEN RIDER BLACK RX series online now but finding the 1st 1972 series English dubbed is almost impossible still. Does anyone else know which other Kamen Rider series were English dubbed?
Elfen lied rules
These 2 classic anime & manga series have been such a success for years, but wouldn't it be great if the 1st action made Astro Boy (Tetsuwan Atom) & Gigantor (Tetsujin 28) series finally got imported to the US? We see some of them at a lot of conventions & online, but I'd really like to see that original 1959 action made Astroboy series get English dubbed. It came out before the 1961 anime series did. Same with the original 1960 Tetsujin 28 (Gigantor) action made series. It only lasted 13 episodes long so maybe it would be easy to get the rights for dubbing it? Or it's "brother" series DAITETSUJIN 17? I know it's easy to find the old 80's dub called BRAIN 17, but does anyone know about the translation that was called, REVENGE OF THE DEFENDERS? With all the popularity we see with GIANT ROBO, ULTRAMAN, etc, I think the action made Gigantor series from the 1960's would be popular too.
when they are hit they explode. but what is SUPER SENTAI. please reply.
