HTC One X vs Samsung Galaxy Note
0. phoneArena 07 May 2012, 09:18 posted on
Here we are, comparing HTC's high-end for the year - the One X - with the phone Samsung took a big risk with and won - the 5.3" Galaxy Note. We say won, since it has sold millions to date, backed by a lofty marketing campaign, whereas the HTC One X has only been around for a few weeks, but the Taiwanese already pledged that its One series trio will receive the best marketing attention the company's ever done too...
This is a discussion for a review. To read the whole review, click here

one x wins!! :D

Well in my opinion, the HTC One X really has nothing special apart from it's beautiful display and speedy processor. In every other respect it's just like every other phone and falls short in some categories. Heck, it's not the only player in the quad core game anymore, with the Galaxy SIII right around the corner. The Note, on the other hand, is and will be the only phone to exceed 5 inches and have a stylus, and just simply works. You could take a look at the sales. In short, NOTE WINS!

Yeah I agree with you, nothing really special with one x. Its just the same with other phones. The note has stylus, the first with 5.3 inch screen and hd resolution. Your one x just catching up with samsunghas already have. Yap the sales also its pretty obvious.

Why compare that? they are very different and not for the same customers
4. bobfreking55 (Posts: 866; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
Hmm. Galaxy Note is a bigger SII with a stylus and 200Mhz more, and ICS is already a bigger factor me.
HTC One X vs SGS III ASAP when it releases please, and if I make a request, can we have John V do it?

ICS is coming for Note this month or the following (for the US variant)

why u want so
35. Raymond_htc (Posts: 430; Member since: 06 Apr 2012)
CONTINUE TO USE THE ONE X! Trust me! its better than the Note, a lot more better. stylus? no problem. go buy stylus and it'll be almost the same as the note.
8. quryous (banned) (Posts: 106; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
They are both nice, and all, but I still think I'll wait until lots more features are adopted and integrated in to the Galaxy Note 2.
9. sorcio46 (Posts: 435; Member since: 27 Jul 2011)
Both are eccellent phones, maybe the software comparision would be fair after Note's ICS update
11. ryan_dcruz (Posts: 2; Member since: 07 May 2012)
Samsung Galaxy Note FTW.
Nothing new about the HTC One X except for the heavily marketed quad-core. Which quite frankly majority of Smartphone users dont ever require. No obvious benefits.
Galaxy Note has the massive 5.3inch screen and the ever useful S-Pen going for it.
And above all the mammoth 2500mah battery :)))
Having said that though, if you still feel you require a quad core processor rather than a dual core....go for the upcoming Samsung Galaxy SIII :)
12. jan25 (Posts: 470; Member since: 26 Feb 2012)
the G Note here, i am pretty sure ICS will put it on par with recently Quad Cores if not better.
13. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
I have seen people that have purchased the note hardly ever use the stylus.. and is simply to big.. when using it as a phone not a tablet... and those are the characteristics of the Note.. One X wins in my mind
14. hung2900 (Posts: 956; Member since: 02 Mar 2012)
And you'll change your mind after using Note
15. gallitoking (Posts: 4718; Member since: 17 May 2011)
honestly have not use it personally but I will soon...
17. ZEUS.the.thunder.god (unregistered)
yeah coz you have the habit of using 3.5 inch display lol
16. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
One x - better processor, sharper screen, much lighter, more compact
Note - bigger screen, s-pen, sd card support, removable battery
Although comparing them is hard, they are very close on the points table
23. Deicide (Posts: 82; Member since: 02 Jul 2011)
Note has the better screen imo, only reason OneX has a shraper image is b/c of it's smaller screen = higher PPI. But the Note has the higher resolution.
18. calirocker394 (Posts: 8; Member since: 03 May 2012)
Wish the note would come to T-Mobile:(

Cant you Americans just buy unlokced instead of keep wishing/complaining ?
19. CX3NT3_713 (Posts: 2275; Member since: 18 Apr 2011)
The note is a great phone. I own the att version.. I cant wait for the note 2 :-)
20. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
Be rational people please. I can't believe some people are arguing that the Note is a better overall device because they think there's nothing is "special" about the One X. What is this "special" component that the One is missing and how does the Note possess it? One X has a better screen, better processor, its thinner, and has a beautiful design that I believe looks way better than the Notes plastic casing. The Note does have an SD slot and removable battery but other than size there is nothing "special" about the Note. 0.3 inches of extra screen space is simple not a rational reason to say that the note is a better device. It's not. The One X is a better overall device. I don't see it any other way. Prove me wrong.
25. ryan_dcruz (Posts: 2; Member since: 07 May 2012)
Im betting you own NEITHER.....lol
You ask whats unique about the Galaxy Note?!?!? One word....S-Pen! !!!!
Oh & id prefer being able to remove/replace batterys. ..oh & the extra space via removeable micro sd cards. Sigh n those one X suckers can only dream of a 2500mah battery!
27. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
You can click on my username and see. I own an international One X and I have briefly used the Note for my own comparison purposes. I understand the Note comes with a stylus Samsung has deemed the "S-Pen" but, although it may very well be wonderful (It was not included in my comparison) is not a factor in my argument. I am referring specifically to the devices aesthetic attractiveness and the capabilities of the hardware/software itself and not accessories like stylus and removable batteries and SD cards. I do understand that accessories effects consumers and appreciate that the Note does have/allow such accessories to be used with it but, I do not believe such accessories should effect a raw comparison of the two stand alone devices capabilities. I believe that when to comes to both aesthetic and capabilities of the phones themselves the One X wins in more categories then the Note.
26. OHaZZaR (Posts: 131; Member since: 19 Aug 2011)
Well see you're saying the extra 0.3 inches is simple, but the already snappy 1.4GHz dual core processor is not enough, that you must have a quad core processor to get tasks for a smartphone done. The gap between dual core smartphones and computers is already thin enough, the gap between quad core smartphones is only marginally thinner, if not at all. Also, what's the reason you buy a certain phone in the first place? It has something no other phone has and that thing is something that you might find very useful in your life. Sure, plastic, all the phones have plastic and HTC isn't plastic, but if you think about it, nearly 9 out of every 10 users who can afford a smartphone also afford covers, and what do we do with these covers... We cover the backplate, whether it's as crappy as the Note's plate or as durable as the One X's. Now as for the display, it's all about opinion. I don't mean to sound biased, I like the sound of an infinite contrast ratio. I like my blacks being black and whites being white, not a shade of grey. Also a lot of you just forget about this little detail that HTC praised so much and that is camera. Samsung didn't really talk about the Note's camera but it takes some very decent pics. The One X's aren't even tolerable, especially after HTC talked so much about their imagechip and fast photo taking capabilities, but what's the point if you can't even take a decent photo. So there you have it, HTC is lacking in one department, the Note, last I checked, had all it's details paid attention to, and added a few pretty cool extras.
28. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
First off, that was me that thumbs down you. It was an accident. I happened to push it while scrolling. Actually you caught a typo I made. I ment to say "simply". I believe that 0.3 simply is not enough of a difference in screen size to consider the Note a "brand new type of device" and/or a better more user friendly device then the One X. I don't think the fact that you can buy a case for the phone plays any factor in making the Note a better stand alone device. Actually the fact that your argument is the plastic back would motivate people to buy a case for the Note only proves my point more. The plastic it cheap, weak and no one prefers it to the One X's casing as far as build quality is concerned. Also I think the 1.4Ghz dual-core is a very capable chipset but, the One X's is better no matter how big or small the performance gap is (it actually pretty sizeable if you look at the benchmarks). I don't think saying that the dual-cores performance is close but, still falls short to the One X's is a good argument on behalf of the Note ether. As for the camera, I own a One X now and my photos are brilliant although I would not consider the One X's camera quality to be the best on the market the camera UI is very snappy and with all the added modes and option the One X's camera serves its purpose exceptionally well. I didn't get a chance to fool with the Note's camera enough so I will not say if its better or worse then the One X's but, at this point I don't think it matters. I'm not saying there aren't reasons to buy a Note (accessories) but, as far as the core devices are concerned the One X is a better overall device.
29. Vakeros (Posts: 1; Member since: 10 May 2012)
Firstly, it isn't 0.3 inches it is 0.6 inches. Compare a Galaxy S screen with a One X for seeing the difference. Secondly, the Note has a higher resolution for web browsing - so less scrolling. Thirdly, battery life is probably the number one gripe for smartphones. One X is trounced according to specs and the ad hoc test - in addition the Note battery is removable.
Fourthly, you are saying that it is the looks that swing it for you, ignoring the point made above that people use cases / sleeves etc.
Fifthly, camera, the tests show that the NOte is better for video and photos except maybe speed - which generally isn't the issue.
So don't say that the One X is better. Every single one of your arguments for the One X are demolished. The Note wins out on every category above so your final statement is plainly wrong. This doesn't mean the One X isn't a nice phone - but it isn't a better overall device or on many ways of measuring it.
In addition the Note has expandable memory and has the S-Pen. It seems for you the two drawbacks are bragging rights from benchmarks and what you might look like holding the phone to your head. If you are that worried get an iPhone! There isn't that much a size difference (as you said above...)
36. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
Firstly, it may have been better for you to have just made a numbered list (just jokin'). I thank you for correcting me about the screen size. I looked at someones comment and it said "5 inches" so I just took that and ran with it without even checking the specs, my bad. I went to an ATT store recently to give the NOTE another shot against my international ONE X and I have to say I still feel the same way. It seems that your comment is not saying that you disagree with what I am as much as you feel that the the categories that the ONE X trumps the NOTE in are less important and that the NOTE better caters to there core need of the user. Somethings can't be argued fore they are your opinion and pertains to the way you personally use your device (ex. High screen resolution for browsing vs Screen size). You also go on to say that the look and way that the materials that the phone are made of aren't important because the user can buy a case. I am not ignoring that you can buy a case for the NOTE, I'm say that in the build materials of the NOTE are of subpar quality when compared to the durability, look and feel of the ONE Xs casing. By you saying "Oh, you can just throw a case on it" not only are you reenforcing what I've already pointed out about the build materials of the NOTE, your also saying it doesn't really matter what a phone is made of, looks or feels like. I can not entertain that. Design and build materials matter when it comes to overall quality of a device because of comfortability, durability and aesthetics. This time I made sure I compared cameras and I have to say there was not much of a difference in the quality of the images I took with ether device. They both have great cameras the ONE Xs being faster from boot to shoot. The NOTEs video capabilities I did not test but, I assume that the NOTE did better in that category with the ONE Xs 1080p video recording topping off at 24 fps. Once again this is a comparison of devices not accessories so S-Pens, and cases for the NOTE have no part in it. Expandable memory and replaceable battery are to pluses but, I can't give the too much credit because they indirectly effect performance and require additional purchases. The NOTE is a little big for a pocket device but, I'm not bothered by it at all I just don't think it should be regarded as this new device just because of 0.6 inches. In my comparison I also found the NOTE to be fairly laggy in comparison to the ONE X when scrolling the app drawer and the home screen. Im sure it has something to do with the size of the display straining the chip. My biggest draw back is not "how the phone looks on my ear", it's the smoothness of the UI and the power of the chip-set. The ONE X bet the NOTE performance wise every single time in everything I tested (benchmarks, games, ICS UI) that's most important category. The ONE X is more powerful and better overall. Overall as in 'with everything considered' not meaning 'better in every category'

Well I see the point you've made. Still you have to admit that usually people will buy a case whether or not it were made of plastic. As for the camera, not sure really, I think I judged too early and from the photos phonearena posted. I do agree that their performance is pretty quick and snappy, I also have to admit as much as I love the Note's picture and video quality, I loath the shot to shot time, it's lackluster, or I'm just impatient since not many people complain about that aspect of the phone. You do make a valid point about processing speed, the Note simply can't compete with that much horsepower, but I'm saying that thus far I didn't need such computing power on my phone, at least not until developers come up with apps that utilize all these cores, like animation and video making, or video editing, like Sony Vegas or Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro. In the end, it's all a matter of opinion, I do and will believe that my trusty Note is the better device, as I didn't feel the regret and self-loath that one has when he sees his device bested in specs and awesomeness, the feeling I felt when the Galaxy SIII was unveiled.
38. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
The ONE X has its draw backs too: no replaceable battery, not memory expansion, Tegra 3 compatibility issues (ex. gameloft). Your very right in think that you don't have a top of the line device. The NOTE is easily becoming one of the the most iconic and well recognized Android smartphones. And if theres anything that Android need if it's going to topple the Apple empire it is recognition.
I have to say that I have the upmorst respect for you, your opinion and I greatly appreciate that you to the time to read mine. Thanks.
39. OHaZZaR (Posts: 131; Member since: 19 Aug 2011)
You are very welcome, and thank you as well. One last question, just out of curiosity, I found it a little funny that phonearena gave the AT&T version of the Note a higher rating than the international one, especially since that one lacked a physical home key and it's more out-dated processor, the only thing it has that the international one doesn't would be 4G and the lagging issue that you've had is pretty common on my phone admittedly but never has it lagged in the app drawer, so were you using the international version or the AT&T version. Just for the record, mine's the international one.

The note should really be regarded as a mini tablet below 7" with voice calling capability rather than regarding it as a cell phone. Samsung pushed it out as cell phone is really a glimmick. It should be compared in the tablet category and Samsung should open up another new trend for tablet below 7 inches with this Galaxy note rather than to compete it with other cell phones with screen below 5 inches. This should be regarded as the very first new Mini tablet ever manufactured by Samsung instead.
22. KEVlN (Posts: 83; Member since: 19 Aug 2011)
I have to disagree. Yes the note has its niche market but that falls into the cell phone category. The note is more comparable to a cell phone now a days rather than compared to a tablet. The smallest tablet size (on average) is 7" and the note is almost 2 inches smaller than a small tablet. But in comparison to cell phones its roughly only an inch bigger than the average 4.3" cell phone. Only 0.6 inches bigger than the one x. So in my opinion and in a general sense, the note is closer to being a cell phone than a tablet although it is neither. Its a whole new type of device, which is why people love it.

waiting for the micro-sim Galaxy Note 2. preferably 7" =)

hi sir i had to register just to inform u the n700 model note is not the at&t model that u compared ur one x to. they not only have diff chp sets the international version dosent have at&ts bloat ware installed.. and i say this to explain the possible lag u described at the at&t store...and afterall u did say u have the international version of the one x...thats all im sayin...u might of had a lil advantage on the i717 that u wouldnt with the n7000 :)
42. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
Very true. Thanks for clarifying that for me. I hadn't originally planned on doing my own comparison, it was more of an after thought when I read PA's review. An international Note would have definitely been idle had I had one available at the time. I'm sure the Int. Note would have gave the One X more of a fight.
43. animeware (Posts: 24; Member since: 14 May 2012)
The One X - Has so many issues like Wi-FI issues and many other issues. Don't by One X it doesn't even have removable battery.
The Note - you got to remember when you researching a phone you wanted to say to your self do I want this type of design and what kind of components do I want and specs. The Note is the only smartphone that I know of that is 5 column row.
45. Jonathan41 (Posts: 532; Member since: 22 Mar 2012)
I've never had one single issue. Every phone has defective units at launch and the iPhone doesn't have a removable battery either an no one says s*** about that. Frankly if the battery is healthy then I don't really care if I can take it out or not.
46. zahmed (Posts: 2; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
PA, Kindly write correctly about video playback capabilities of HTC one X compared with SGS III or Galaxy Note. You are not telling completely about One X. It is no way at par with both of above mentioned handsets. in fact, HTC is still offering the same codec support which it used to with Desire HD. Not even AC3 audio codec support. This is serious bulls**t on HTCs part while they write "Multimedia Powerhouse" about their phones and still supporting the limited codecs. Whereas, you throw anything in SGS I to SGS III and it plays back flawlessly.
Moreover, HTC needs to look in following shortcomings in their high end phones, seriously:
1. Small batteries sizes they offer with their large acreen phones.
2. Beats headphones to be proivided or atleast in-ear buds headphones like Samsung does for better and comfortable audio listening experience.
3. Proper file manager.
4. Built-in 16gb with expansion slot for micro SD card

Compare also x one with newly updated to ics galaxy note... Lets see then... Because comparing phones with gingerbread and the other is ics is just plain stupid...

While IT leaders on both sides of the cloud debate are right to remain vigilant about issues that are core to enterprise viability and sustainability - such as data security, compliance and overreliance on a small number of suppliers - evidence suggests that some of these fears lessen once a more serious move into the cloud has been made.
As a result, IT leaders should acknowledge this and consider the service-based advantages and improved business focus that may result, and ensure that they work with a reputable, long-established supplier that can provide the requisite guarantees.

The Blended star is spending part of the summer on the popular island off the coast of Massachusetts, and, according to the locals, Barrymore, 39, and her family are having a great time.
On Friday afternoon, Barrymore and 22-month-old daughter Olive hit up the popular Children's Beach for some fun in the sun. Olive was spotted sharing beach toys with the other kids in the sand.
The family then headed to dinner at Lola Burger, where Barrymore dined on a New England summer staple: a lobster roll.
Barrymore is also mom to newborn daughter Frankie, whom she and husband Will Kopelman welcomed April 22.
Earlier in the week, Barrymore and company hung out by the pool at the Cliffside Beach Club.
"She was very friendly and very nice," realtor Lori Markell tells PEOPLE. "She said she just had her baby 11 weeks ago."
After their time at the pool, Barrymore decamped for a healthy bite at Something Natural. She was also spotted at the Starlight Café, where she posed for pictures with waitresses. Dressed in a white skirt, cardigan and no makeup, Drew looked like the epitome of New England summer casual.
"She's just a nice person," adds an onlooker who lives on the island.

With the game into its final minutes and Tiffin University on its way to a victory over Ohio Dominican, the Gillmor Center crowd was quieted when the Dragons' star post, senior Jessica Harris, went down.
Harris, who had her usual rock-solid game with 12 points, 12 rebounds and five blocks, put a scare into her teammates and coaches. In a season where Tiffin already lost senior guard Karli Mast, losing Harris would be devastating to a team trying to make the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference tournament.
"When Jess went down, I think we all kind of took a gasp," TU coach Pam Oswald said after Saturday's 67-50 win over the Panthers. "My biggest thing was, I had a sub there waiting for her. But it happens. She's a pretty tough kid."
Harris got up and walked off the court. In a postgame interview, she said she was OK.
The senior picked up her ninth double double this season despite playing just 24 minutes, and helped Tiffin up its record to 10-9, 7-8 in league play. The Dragons sit tied for ninth in the league. The top eight teams make it.
"We just want to get to (the GLIAC) tournament," Harris said. "I think everybody knows that. Our first step to getting to the tournament was beating ODU, and we weren't about to let them get in our way. I know I wasn't."
For all that Harris did Saturday, it was also what her teammates were able to do when she was on the bench. TU's reserves had a nice game, with Jordan Fraley leading TU with 13 points to go along with four assists, four steals. Overall, the Dragons outscored Ohio Dominican in bench points, 25-3.
"I think they did well," Harris said. "Everybody has a role on the team, and everybody played it well. I don't mind when they're in; I know everything's gonna be all right."
Oswald said it's important to rest Harris, and to give the program's younger players some experience.
"Once we get a little bit of a lead, I want be able to get our young kids in and get their feet wet," Oswald said. "It was nice being able to get (Marisa) Liburdi in, and being able to get (Jessica) Farr in for more minutes and things, but then being able to get (Harris) back in and try to get a rotation, just because the simple fact, that somewhere down the stretch we might have someone in foul trouble, and I want to be smart with our play."
Tiffin led almost the entire way, and held a 31-25 halftime advantage. Senior Stephanie Kelly got Tiffin going right away to start the second half, nailing 3s on back-to-back possessions to put the Dragons up 37-25.
"We just got more energy in the start of the second half," said Kelly, who had 12 points and four assists. "We set good screens to get me open."
But the lead didn't make Oswald or her players complacent. Not long after, Oswald was whistled for a technical after arguing what she thought should have been a foul on ODU.
If nothing else, the technical appeared to fire up Oswald's players. TU led 39-28 when the the technical was called. The Dragons immediately went on a 10-2 run that essentially put the game away.
"If my kids are gonna go out there and put forth effort ...then I'm gonna fight for them when I don't think (a call) is right," Oswald said. "I kind of let the moment get to me, but if that fired (my team) up, so be it. But I'm not gonna let something just get by."
The Panthers (5-12, 2-12) were led by Alex Hallenbeck, who had 10 points, 12 rebounds, and by Rachael Torey, who had 16 points.

Batman: Arkham Asylum is one the greatest comic game ever. This is not just one of your wholesome, typical Batman story. It is so much more than a full fun gameplay elements and well-told story.
Super Gamer Dude
Xbox 360
Batman Arkham Asylum sees the return of Batman and this time the caped crusader has captured the Joker but, unfortunately, he has allowed him to escape. The Joker later makes his way to Arkham Asylum where he decides to come up with a concoction that allows him to make everyday baddies into super soldiers.
The game combat style is similar to other titles like Assassin Creed where you can carry out a series of moves and these moves are elevated if the right combinations of buttons are pressed at the right time. By doing this you are given the opportunity to be able to create long combo streaks and counter moves, and when very long combat punches and kicks are done in succession, super combat moves will come into play.
You also have the option during certain levels to be able to swoop down from high locations to swoop down on your enemy, and perform stealth attacks and kicking motions for closer combat. As you progress through the levels other in game gizmos become available to you, these include a Batman belt, which enables the caped crusader to be able to use grappling hooks to climb, remote sensor batarangs which can be guided for stealth killing, gels which enable Batman to move through certain walls during gameplay and many other tools are put at your disposal.
Batman Arkham Asylum also has the element of the Gothic about it which relates very much to the Batman Franchise films, books, and comics, so they have kept it in line with the overall style which is generally associated with the super hero. The characters often make an appearance more than once and as expected all the favorites are included, such as Scarecrow, Mr Freeze, the Riddler and more than 20 other characters which you will have the opportunity to meet during the game.
You also have other modes during gameplay which enable Batman to complete a series of riddles which run through the game, and you also have the option to dismiss these riddles, but may decide to revisit the game once completed, and decide to complete that series of riddles later, for extra gameplay.
The graphics within the game and the sound quality is very well presented which adds to the overall experience of the game, as far as Batman games go this is by far one of the favorites. The only downside to Batman Arkham Asylum is that the game is relatively short. The completion without doing the riddles is around ten hours and compared to other games this is a little on the short side. However, this is a very good combat action game which any Batman addict would love to own. Overall I would give this game 9 out of 10 for overall gameplay experience.

They discuss the strange attraction of the Arenberg Trench, Team Sky's strategy for winning at this year's cobbled classics, how the UCI is unwise to tamper too much with the established race calendar, and why it ought to be doing more to promote women's bike racing.

Mosquito Bikes is proud to announce that it is the UK's first and exclusive retailer of Alchemy custom bicycles. You can see them in the flesh, along with all Mosquito's other brands, at the Bespoked Bristol hand-built bicycle show show between the 12th-14th of April.

Twerking, tongues and teaching teens
August 30, 2013
So, have you heard any good Miley Cyrus jokes this week? Although many found her pathetic, desperate-for-attention performance at the MTV Video Music Awards Sunday to be funny, it was actually a sad......
Oh that's great. Tell them to join the Boy Scouts', where they're taught that gays should be discriminated against. Cause, you know, that's so much better than twerking.

Marla R. Keown/Aurora Sentinel
Marla R. Keown/Aurora Sentinel
AURORA � Having been diagnosed with celiac sprue disease a few years ago, Dan Adema sums up his diet in simple terms: �I can�t eat anything that tastes good.�
If it has gluten, it�s a no-go. That means no pizza, no cake, no cookies. Foods that make the average eater�s mouth water simply make Adema sick.
That�s why a few years ago, when the smell of his wife�s freshly fried chicken � made to her grandpa�s old southern recipe � wafted his way, Adema was torn. A few bites of that fried chicken and all its gluten-filled goodness, and he�d be hurting.
But the smell was too much to take.
�I said, �I know it�s gonna be bad if I eat it, but I can�t take it, I got to eat some,�� he said.
That moment of weakness in the face of good fried chicken � as well as lab tests that later showed grandpa�s recipe was gluten free � sparked Grandpa�s Gluten-Free Gourmet. Adema and his wife, Angi, launched the company from their Aurora home last spring.
The company�s gluten-free chicken encrusting is now available at several Vitamin Cottage locations around the state, as well as a handful of specialty shops.
In the coming weeks, the Ademas plan to add spicy, Italian and dairy-free options to their mix, which at the moment includes just garlic Parmesan.
For Angi Adema, the company is a way to honor her late grandpa, Larry J. Malone.
�Grandpa Malone� was from Tennessee, and like a lot of cooks in the South, he knew what he was doing when it came to fried food.
His recipe for fried chicken was a staple on the family menu growing up, Angi said, but grandpa probably never imagined his recipe would be commercially successful.
�I think he would be kind of shocked to know that we shared it with everyone,� she said.
But, launching a company from the ground up has been a challenge, and one filled with long nights and busy weekends.
Both Dan and Angi work regular, 9-to-5 jobs � Angi at an IT company, Dan in construction and web design � so getting the company started meant working farmer�s markets all over town.
During one stretch last summer, the couple worked 160 days straight without a day off � slinging their mix at area markets, spending hours in a rented commercial kitchen preparing huge batches of the mix and packaging it for sale. The recipe�s popularity made all that work necessary.
�People really enjoy it, and that�s the answer we needed before we could move forward,� Angi said.
The business has also been a way for the Ademas to connect with other celiacs and help them out.
Dan knows well how frustrating it can be to go to a restaurant and not be able to order anything on the menu. Or to have to eat a separate meal from the rest of the family. So being able to see other people with the same disease be able to eat fried chicken for the first time in years has been rewarding.
�From a celiac�s perspective, we are really trying to make a product that really brings social acceptance,� he said.
And, it doesn�t hurt that Grandpa�s recipe tastes good, so celiacs and non-celiacs alike can eat it together, Angi said.
�The stuff tastes like normal food, so people who (can eat gluten) are going to enjoy (eating) it too,� she said. That�s important for families who often have to cook two meals, one with gluten, one without, she said. �You�ll have at least one meal people can make where they don�t have to make two separate meals,� she said.

NEW WASHINGTON - Upper Sandusky never got out of the gate against Buckeye Central as the Bucks rolled past the Rams, 56-27.
The Bucks never let up, outscoring Upper Sandusky 32-11 in the first half. The onslaught continued as Buckeye Central made an 18-6 run in the third quarter.
Austin Wurm posted the game high of 20 points for the Bucks. He was 7 for 11 on field goals with five 3-pointers. Cade Kaple went 4 for 6 from the field with three 3-pointers to add 11 points.
Wes Vent led the Rams with 10 points. Seth Frey added six points, while Cody Collins had five points and led the team with four rebounds.
Late run closes victory for SW
ATTICA- Thanks to a fourth-period surge, St. Wendelin turned back Seneca East in the closing moments of Friday night's game, 63-57.
After being down 31-25 at the half, Seneca East's Ethan Caudill put the heat on the Mohawks. He scored 28 points to keep the Tigers in the game.
A 16-7 run in the third period put Seneca East ahead 41-38. After a sluggish seven-point showing in the third, St. Wendelin caught fire to outscore the Tigers 25-16 in the final quarter to eke out a win.
The Mohawks were led by Gabe Walters who had 17 points. He was 7 for 10 from the field and 3 for 4 at the line. Peter Campbell was right behind Walters with 15 points on 5-for-5 shooting from the field and a 4-for-4 effort at the line.
FHS still seeking first NBC win
ELMORE - Drew Lewandowski and Grant Wies combined for 33 points Friday as Woodmore stormed past Northern Buckeye Conference foe Fostoria 71-57.
Lewandowski hit four 3-pointers on the way to 17 points and Wies scored 16 for the Wildcats (4-16, 4-9 NBC).
Eric Gruelich added 11 points and Phil Thorbahn tossed in eight.
Fostoria (2-17, 0-13) got a game-high 20 points from Jayden Stanton. Kaleb Bemis chipped in 11 points, but no other Redman scored more than five.
St. Wendelin wins without Troike
KANSAS - No one player makes a team, but without Kamryn Troike, St. Wendelin still powered forward to beat Lakota, 33-23.
Troike averaged 20.4 points until an injury kept her out of St. Wendelin's game against the Raiders Friday night.
Allie Rutter stepped up her game in Troike's absence to lead the Mohawks, shooting 4 for 6 from the floor en route to posting 11 points. Mackenzie McAfee added nine points and led the team in rebounds with nine. Hailee Burns chipped in six points and Edy Mowrey put up five.
Katie Park led everyone in scoring with 14 points for the Raiders.

A man was arrested in Walmart Saturday evening after allegedly using a knife to open merchandise packaging.
According to Tiffin Police Department, Timothy S. Stallings, 24, of Fostoria, was charged with robbery, a second-degree felony, for committing theft with a deadly weapon.
Officer Jake DeMonte said Stallings was trying to steal merchandise and used a kitchen knife to cut open packaging. The knife was in his sleeve, and he did not threaten anyone with it, DeMonte said.
DeMonte said Stallings ran back into the store after being stopped at the entrance, and a pursuit ensued.
"A customer actually tried to stop him," he said.
DeMonte said the customer and Stallings were fighting in a clothing department, and a loss prevention officer lay atop Stallings until police arrived. Stallings was arrested in the store, he said.
DeMonte said Stallings also was involved in an incident at J.C. Penney prior to his arrest at Walmart. Employees thought he was trying to steal a pair of shoes, he said.
Stallings was being held at Seneca County Jail Saturday.

Prejudice & Discrimination
Books are mirrors in which children see themselves reflected. When children are represented in literature and other media, they begin to see themselves as valuable and worthy of notice. Conversely when children do not see accurate representations of themselves, they may internalize the message that they are not worthy of notice.
Just as books are mirrors for children, they are also windows to the world. This is true for all children, but it is especially true for children whose life experience is limited by homogeneous school and home environments. Reading about people in all parts of the world fosters children's understanding and respect for their own and others' cultural groups, helps them to see themselves as members of the global community and supports the lifelong process of learning about multiple perspectives and experiences.
Books can also help children develop empathy by increasing their understanding about how people around the world are both similar to and different from themselves. Research shows that there is a positive correlation between empathy development and lowered prejudicial attitudes and behaviors. Talking about and acknowledging differences does not, as some fear, lead to increased divisiveness. Research on differences shows the opposite: that acknowledging human differences creates unity. Books that illustrate the ways in which people are different from each other can play an important role in promoting understanding and respect.
In addition, books can and should promote social action to combat injustice. Children need to hear stories about people who have been successful in challenging inequity. Books can inspire children by showing them the power of pro-social actions against injustice. Children need to understand that they are not powerless in the face of prejudice and discrimination. Books can provide models to help children see themselves as social activists. This is an important way that books help prepare children for the future.

Thursday, July 3, 2014
Registration is open for Summerville Country Clubs 15th annual Junior Open Golf Tournament held in memory of Dr. Roy Meyers.
Scheduled for July 11, the tournament is formatted to appeal to a wide range of junior golfers.
Its good for any junior golfer looking to get some tournament experience in a fun setting, Summerville Country Club Golf Pro Bray Blanton said. Its a good beginners tournament because there isnt a lot of pressure but at the same time the competition for the top spots gets very competitive. Weve also had good luck in the past with our sponsors coming through with some great prizes.
Each year prizes are awarded in multiple categories. Four different sets of tees are used to accommodate golfers of varying experience and age.
The tournament is open to male and female golfers age 7-18. The registration fee is $25 per golfer and includes lunch and prizes following play. Club officials are asking interested golfers to register by July 8.
Golfers age 7-10 will play nine holes and use special tees. Golfers age 11-12 will play nine holes and use red tees.
Older golfers will play 18 holes with those age 13-14 using the white tees and those 15-18 using the blue tees.
Tee times, beginning at 8 a.m., can be scheduled by calling the Summerville Country Club Pro Shop. Practice rounds will be available at no charge (walking) July 9-10 and parents may play along those days for a $16 cart fee.
Summerville High School golfer Andrew Purcell does plan to defend the SCC Junior Open title he earned last summer by parring the third hole of a sudden death playoff to win the tournament.
Purcell and Pine Forest golfer Spencer Warner both finished their round at Summerville Country Club with a score of 79 to tie for first place in the age 16-18 (championship) division.
Two of Purcells high school teammates played in his group and if they would have performed just a little better they could have participated in the playoff round. Dylan Bunch carded an 80 to place third in the tournament and two-time Roy Meyers Junior Open Champion Christian Woods finished with a round of 81 to place fourth.
In the younger age divisions, Luis Thompson stole the show by carding a 2-under-par 34 to win his third consecutive Roy Meyers Junior 10U Title. Tyler Brown finished at 43 to place second and Noah Kessler finished at 47 to place third.
Price Lenoir shot a 50 to win the age 11-12 division. Joseph Evans (57) place second and Lauren Fix (58) placed third.
Max Kastenholz shot an 83 to win the age 13-15 division. Ky Matsumoto (87) placed second and Brodie Blanton (92) placed third.
About Dr. Roy Gene Meyers
Dr. Meyers was a baseball and track star in high school. He took up golf in his 40s and often played his age until he stopped playing in his late 80s.
Dr. Meyers flew combat missions in World War II, but his primary occupation and interest was behavioral optometry. His career allowed him to help improve the vision and development of countless children and adults.
In 2004, Summerville Country Club officials began holding their annual junior tournament in his honor as a way to thank Dr. Meyers for his passion for golf and the support he gave junior golfers at the club.
Each year up until his death in 2011, Dr. Meyers presented the trophies and other prizes at the clubs annual junior tournament. Those duties have now been passed down to members of his family.

RICHMOND, Va. - The Stetson men's basketball team will play its first road game since the season-opener taking on VCU Wednesday night in Richmond. The Rams (3-3) host the Hatters (2-2) at 7:30 p.m. in the first ever meeting between these two teams.
"It's going to be a real challenge," Stetson head coach Casey Alexander said of the game against the Rams. "Obviously [VCU head coach] Shaka Smart has done a great job with that team. They play hard, they're great defensively, and it's a tough environment, so it will be a fun - fun might not be the right word - it will be a great challenge for our team."
In just three seasons at VCU, Smart has turned the Rams' program into household name, winning the CBI postseason tournament in his first season, making an upset run to the final four in 2010-11, and then returning to the NCAA Tournament's Third Round just a season ago. VCU has compiled a record of 87-31 under Smart, which includes this year's 3-3 start.
The 2012-13 version of the Rams seems to have the same qualities that has made the program so successful the past few years. The team's aggressive style of defense allowed VCU to lead the nation in steals per game (10.6) and turnover margin (+6.5) a year ago, and through six games in 2012-13, the Rams are recording steals at 10.8 per contest.
Taking care of the ball was an issue for Stetson last season, but over the first four games of the season that has been anything but an issue for the Hatters. The team currently holds a 1.58 assist-to-turnover ratio, tallying 74 helpers to just 48 turnovers, which is much improved over last year's mark of 0.84.
Overall, Stetson has shown a number of improvements during the start of the second season under Alexander, which has included the first back-to-back 20-point victories since the year 2000. The Hatters' only two losses have been single-digit defeats to the ACC's Miami and the Big East's USF.
Fans can listen to Wednesday night's game on the radio at WSBB 1230 AM in New Smyrna, 1490 AM in DeLand, or online at www.myam1230.com. There will be no audio on GoHatters.com. VCUAthletics.com's Ram TV will also have a live video stream of the game. Live Stats, the @StetsonMBB Twitter feed, and Hat-Alerts are also available for in-game updates.

5 Absurd Exploitation Film Subgenres
Film is a great way to escape the everyday and participate in a rich and wonderful fantasy world, whether you're heading to Middle-earth in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings or future Detroit in RoboCop, where Dick Jones is so gonna get his because that guy is a total asshole. At its best, film can act as a mirror for the audience and make us see ourselves -- our desires, our secrets, and our hopes and dreams -- for better or for worse and give us insight into the human condition. At its worst, it probably was directed by Uwe Boll and/or starred Ashton Kutcher.
While nearly every genre of film has its merits, from the real world presented in documentary to the laughter brought on by comedy and the stirring emotion of a good drama, probably the most notably awesome genre of all is exploitation. Why? Because it exists solely to exploit something, and it doesn't even hide it. It wallows in it. But weirder than even that, than the knowledge that people are making films to exploit most famously sex in sexploitation films and (slightly less popular but still very famous) black culture in blaxploitation films, is that there are just oodles of subgenres out there, all dedicated to exploiting some subset of people. I figured I'd share some of my favorites with you because it's good to know this stuff exists.
#5. Nunsploitation
Comstock/Comstock/Getty Images
Generally speaking, nuns are about as culturally relevant these days as telegrams, zeppelins, and Tony Danza. How often do you even see nuns anymore? And when you do see nuns, do you ever think, "Mmm, I'd like to Hail Mary a piece of that?" No. No you don't, because all nuns have to be at least 60 and reminiscent of Abe Vigoda in the looks department. Nonetheless, for a time in the 1970s a certain group of filmmakers and filmgoers all shared a beautiful dream -- that nuns were hot and either a) desperate to shed their religious oppression and clothes to engage in frolicky nun debauchery or b) two seconds away from a homicidal rampage at any given moment.
Shining Example: Images in a Convent
Italian director Joe D'Amato, mostly known for horror movies produced on a budget that wouldn't get you a pair of Nyke sneakers at a ghetto flea market, gave us one of the best examples of nunsploitation. (I'm using the word "best" in the same way you'd use it to describe the different shits you see in a zoo. Like "The elephant clearly has the best shit, it can bury a man whole.")
I found a 15-minute clip on YouTube and was surprised because I didn't think there were 15 minutes in this movie that didn't feature nudity. I was surprised again to discover that there aren't, and you can see naked nuns on YouTube, apparently. I checked with the bosses at Cracked and they watched the clip and then told me to find them more clips and a bottle of white wine. Then they told me I was pretty and my mouth was the sort of mouth built for kissing and other naughty things, some other stuff happened, and, long story short, I couldn't use that clip.
Even the box art is chock-full of nudity, but at a more acceptable level. It calls this the most explicit nunsploitation film ever made, but it's not that it's full-on nun porn (there is a bit of full-on nun porn, but it's not the whole movie) so much as they just never stay clothed. And even when they are clothed, like in a nun's habit, they have boobie panels cut out. There's also some demon possession, because of course there is.
#4. Nazisploitation
Photos.com/Photos.com/Getty Images
The "-ploitation" suffix makes it sound like something is being taken advantage of, which makes Nazisploitation sound bizarre at first, because how do you exploit Nazis? Are there civil rights attorneys out there to prevent innocent Nazis from being taken advantage of? Can we donate to a charity on their behalf?
Luckily for you, none of that is a concern -- these are just good ol' fashioned movies about Nazis committing sex crimes. There may be other plot elements, but basically they're very focused on the idea that, as part of their day-to-day Nazi routine, the SS were really into sexual depravity. And there were a number of busty SS officers as well. I can't speak to the historical accuracy of that.
Shining Example: Ilsa: She Wolf of the SS
I can't express in a way that will ever be profound enough just how ill-advised the very existence of this movie is. Imagine building your own car from scratch in your garage. It takes years to do and you literally machine all the parts yourself, you cut the panels and shape them, every aspect of this thing was made by you, by hand, and when it's finally finished, you realize with some consternation that you've assembled it with the gas tank attached to the front bumper and it's padded with TNT for some reason. And also the car was responsible for one of the most atrocious genocides in the history of mankind. This movie is wrong like that.
Ilsa starts with a disclaimer against the horrors of the Nazi regime, a nice, classy touch, given that this movie is mostly about German boobs and torture. Misplaced sentiment is a thing that never existed in the basement where this movie was filmed. Ilsa starts by humping a POW, but he fails to satisfy her, so she has to castrate him. How will he ever learn if you do that? That's foolhardy, is what that is.
Much of the rest of the movie is about torturing women to prove that they can handle pain intercut with more dirty Nazi sex. If someone made this movie today, it would be trending on Twitter for days.
#3. Ozploitation
Davis McCardle/Digital Vision/Getty Images
The first time I heard of Ozploitation, I of course hoped it had something to do with Munchkins buttfucking flying monkeys, but alas, I was in the wrong Oz. Please don't question my motives. This subgenre is focused mainly on the Land Down Under, where everything is just a little bit more awesome thanks to Vegemite and deadly snakes.
Most North American audiences probably had little contact with Aussie films before Mad Max came out, and Mad Max is a pretty great example of the genre. I'd use it here if I didn't think everyone had seen it already. Basically, Ozploitation came into existence when Australia introduced an R rating in the early '70s and filmmakers responded by trying to make as many R-rated films as they could on a budget that wouldn't get you a Happy Meal.
The Howling III: The Marsupials
The Howling was a pretty popular horror movie, but the franchise really fell to shit after the first part, so much so that a lot of people weren't aware that it's even a franchise. Did you know that there are eight Howling movies? And literally none are good after the first one? Now you do.
The Howling III is arguably the best of the worst in the series and a fine Ozploitation flick. How do you make an Australian werewolf movie? Drop the wolves and use kangaroos. It's about werekangaroos. Maybe they're werewombats. Werekoalas. WereTasmanian tigers. Doesn't matter. There's even a birth scene with a little joey in a pouch. However lame that sounds to you, it's actually worse when you see it. There's also this scene:
The film is loosely about a scientist researching werewolves and this dude making a movie and how they both end up having sex with werewolves. There's also a scene in which a ballet dancer turns into a werewolf on stage and eats a guy. It's pretty much fantastic.

Unable to speak after sustaining injuries to the throat, according to sources, the 19-year-old suspect is "intubated and sedated," CNN reports.
"I, and I think all of the law enforcement professionals, are hoping for a host of reasons that the suspect survives, because we have a million questions, and those questions need to be answered," Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick told reporters on Saturday.
The other suspect, Tsarnaev's older brother Tamerlan, was killed in shootout with police on Friday morning. Tamerlan's death came after the pair allegedly shot and killed an MIT police officer and carjacked a driver, who they released unscathed.
Suspect Partied After BombingsTsarnaev, a college sophomore, remained on the University of Massachusetts-Darmouth campus every day after Monday's attack until late Thursday. While investigators spanned Boston, Tsarnaev attended classes and dorm parties, a university official told CNN.
A student – who asked to remain anonymous – told The Boston Globe that when she saw Tsarnaev at a party on Wednesday night, he was "just relaxed."
In the dorm where Tsarnaev lived, students like Pamala Rolon joked that the suspected bomber could be their classmate.
"We made a joke like, that could be Dzhokar," Rolon told PEOPLE. "But then we thought it just couldn't be him. Dzhokar? Never."
She continued, "I would never have thought he would do this ... This is shocking to everyone, even people who knew him. I just can't believe that someone I knew would do terrible things like that."
"He was a caring, loving person. He was thoughtful, he was funny, you know? He was someone that you could just hang out with and you could be yourself around him. This is, like, unbelievable," Rolon said.

The effort from both sides was phenomenal last Friday as Stratford extended its winning streak with a victory over Summerville.
The Knights (6-0) earned a 28-26 win over the Green Wave (4-2) in a game that featured several momentum shifts and came down to the final play.
"What a great game and atmosphere," said Stratford coach Ray Stackley, whose team won despite losing seven turnovers and dropping 12 passes. "This was just a typical Summerville-Stratford game."
Stratford, ranked eighth in Class AAAA, scored first on an 80-yard touchdown pass from University of Georgia commit Jacob Park to fellow senior Thad Thompson.
But the rest of the first half belonged largely to the Green Wave, which scored 20 unanswered points to take a 20-7 lead into the half.
The Knights scored 21 points in the first five minutes of the third quarter to take a 28-20 lead, and that flurry set the stage for the dramatic conclusion.
"We played good but we didn't do what we had to do to win," Summerville coach John McKissick said. "Stratford did."
A pair of penalties on Summerville helped shift momentum in Stratford's direction.
For a moment, the Wave thought it had delivered the knockout blow on the first possession of the second half.
Linebacker Codie Soto intercepted a Stratford pass near midfield and returned it for a score but the Wave was penalized for a block in the back during the return.
Summerville eventually punted and an unsportsmanlike penalty later continued Stratford's ensuing drive.
With new life, Park tossed an 89-yard touchdown pass to Thompson, who leapt over a Summerville defender before dashing to the end zone.
The Knights then capitalized on two turnovers.
T.J. Deveaux stripped the ball away from a Summerville rusher and returned it 23 yards for a touchdown. Tyler Tekac's third extra point gave the Knights a 21-20 lead.
On Summerville's next possession, linebacker Ty'reik Faulks forced a fumble and Deveaux recovered the ball for the Knights. That led to a 16-yard touchdown run by Tyree Scroggins and an eight-point Stratford lead.
In the fourth quarter, Summerville drove 83 yards to score on a 6-yard run by sophomore Chris Felder. Bridges handed off to Felder again on the two-point conversion attempt, but the Stratford D stopped him short of the end zone so the score remained 28-26.
Summerville's Michael Murray recovered the ensuing onside kick to give the Wave one last chance.
But the Knights' Taylor Morrison got through to block a 47-yard field goal try on the last play, preserving Stratford's second straight victory over Summerville.
"My hat goes off to them," Stackley said. "They had a great gameplan and they are so quick on defense. They got us discombobulated in the first half but I thought our defense really played hard the whole game.
"Park didn't have a great first half which is very not typical of him but he played a great second half. He put the ball on the money when we needed him to."
Park completed 17 of 40 pass attempts for 319 yards and two TDs. Thompson had six receptions for 219 yards, including the two TD catches.
Bridges completed 12 of 43 pass attempts for 190 yards and two TDs. McCurry led the Green Wave receivers with four receptions for 99 yards, including the 37-yard TD catch.
On defense for the Knights, Deveaux made 13 total tackles, while Morrison and Joe Cook had eight stops each. Michael Simmons and Cecil Smith were in on seven stops apiece.
Stratford begins Region 7-AAAA play at Cane Bay on Friday while Summerville travels to Dorchester County rival Fort Dorchester to kickoff the Region 8-AAAA slate.
The Knights' next opponent is coming off a 34-20 loss to Colleton County, which Stratford just defeated 43-0.
"Cane Bay is a very well-coached and capable football team," Stackley said. "They have excellent speed on offense and a very good quarterback. Their defense runs to the ball very well. We will have to clean up our act from Friday if we expect to be successful."

LOCKPORT – Joshua K. Allen, who converted a shoplifting incident into a felony by pulling a razor blade on a store security guard, was blasted as an incompetent criminal and a bad person Thursday by State Supreme Court Justice Richard C. Kloch Sr., who sentenced him to a year in Niagara County Jail.
"How do you live with yourself? Do you have a soul?" Kloch demanded of Allen, 27, of Lena Drive, Wheatfield. "You don't have a soul because you can't be honest."
Assistant District Attorney Theresa L. Prezioso dubbed Allen "a serial larcenist" and said he recently was arrested on another theft charge at the North Tonawanda Walmart.
Kloch said Allen is "a poor thief because he keeps getting caught." Prezioso said Allen has a history of trying to mislead judges.
Allen was arrested Feb. 15, 2011, at the Sears store in The Summit, a Wheatfield mall, after the razor blade incident, which followed the theft of a bottle of perfume and a memory card for a digital camera. Allen pleaded guilty to attempted second-degree robbery.

WASHINGTONVILLE - After the state Route 14 and Washingtonville Street intersection is bid out, the Ohio Department of Transportation expects work to begin in June, according to Becky Giauque, public information officer for District 11.
Washingtonville Council approved legislation authorizing the ODOT to bid out the work to upgrade the intersection during Mondays' meeting.
Fiscal Officer Dale Davis said ODOT will pay for 100 percent of the construction costs which will more closely align Washingtonville Road with East Street, which are opposite of each other, while widening state Route 14 and adding left turn lanes and a traffic signal and providing 8-foot wide sidewalks along both sides of state Route 14 and Washingtonville Road throughout the project limits.

The intersection of state Route 14 and Washingtonville Road are scheduled for a major upgrade this summer when the Ohio Department of Transportation aligns them, widens SR14, adds left lanes and a traffic signal. All the work will occur inside the Washingtonville village limits and council approved legislation authorizing ODOT to bid out the contract during its Monday meeting. ODOT engineers estimate the cost at about $1.1 million. This view from Washingtonville Road looks south toward the End Zone and post office on South County Road. (Salem News photo by Larry Shields)
Traffic will be maintained on state Route 14 which ODOT says has an average daily traffic (ADT) count of 10,850 vehicles through the intersection.
Any additional features the village wants above ODOT's requirements will be paid for entirely by the village.
Giauque said engineers estimate the project to cost in the range of $1.1 million and a fall completion date is expected depending on the availability of asphalt at that time.
Giauque said it could be opened with the final paving left until the spring of 2014.
"They may have to put the final completion date off," she said.
The first public hearing was held in 2009 and in 2010 former Mayor Norm Sommers said the intersection renovations had been discussed for over a decade.
"It's a safety issue that [the village] has been looking into for some time now," Sommers said at the time of the hearing.

5 Bizarre Outbursts By Celebrities You Thought Were Sane
Everyone knows about Michael Richards and Mel Gibson's racist tirades. We've all seen Britney Spears' multiple meltdowns. We already know these people are fuck-ups. But there's a more subversive type of star out there -- one who keeps his dark side well out of the public eye. Every once in a while they let their true nature slip, and it's impossible to ever look at them the same again.
#5. Sean Connery is a Proud, Admitted Woman Beater
Wait, no. Sean Connery is an icon. He's James Bond for Christ sake. A Highlander. He's been knighted. And if you've had enough beer, he kind of sounds like a lovable cartoon pirate.
He's also an accomplished face spanker, as admitted in a 1965 Playboy interview:
But that was 1965. Times were different, and a lot more injustices were simply tolerated as facts of life. Racism, sexism, gigantic afros. A couple of decades later, Barbara Walters dug it up in a televised interview. Of course by that time, Connery had obviously changed his opinion.
Oh, wait, he didn't. When she brought it up, his first reaction was to turn his head and laugh in a way that said, "Oh great, here we go again with this petty bullshit."
Walters quoted part of the Playboy interview, stressing what he had said about using an open hand rather than a closed fist, adding, "Remember that? Yeeeeah." At this point, Connery loses his smile, which is appropriate because he's being scolded, and realizes he has to explain that of course he realizes that spousal abuse is a serious problem, right? Nope. The man is just really serious about slapping women. In a tone that makes it clear how he feels about mouthy women, Connery monotones, "I haven't changed my opinion."
When she presses him, Connery explains that you only beat women, "If you've tried everything else, and -- women are pretty good at this -- they can't leave it alone. They want to have the last word, and you give them the last word, but they're not happy with the last word. They want to say it again, and get into a really provocative situation. Then I think it's absolutely right."
So in other words, the woman has to keep bringing up something you don't want to talk about in order to create a provocative situation. Or to put it yet another way, Sean Connery is threatening to slap Barbara Walters if she keeps asking him about that quote.
It's always interesting to see the double standard we have for different categories of celebrity. If Sean Connery had been, say, a pro athlete or a politician, he'd get tarred with this reputation until the day he died. But he's so fucking suave. His accent wears a tuxedo. It's so impossible to connect that voice with the image of a drunken man slapping around a woman that we wouldn't believe it even if we had it on video. Hell, even Barbara Walters starts off the video with a subtle apology on his behalf ("I know Sean Connery regrets this conversation") and ends it with, "[he] has been married to Micheline for 31 years, and we have not heard a single complaint."
Not that Sean is alone in his belief that women exist somewhere on the same level as dogs ...
#4. Bill Maher Thinks Women and Children are Lesser Lifeforms
I always wrote off Bill Maher in the same way that I do Bill O'Reilly. He says things that are inflammatory in order to get ratings, and he's pretty good at it. But Maher is actually a pretty good standup comedian. The problem is, there is probably nothing more awkward than the moment a comedian stops his comedy in order to tell you what's really wrong with the world, and you quickly realize that their life philosophy is the stuff assholes are made of. As in this clip:
Feminine values have taken over America, and Bill Maher isn't going to stand for it! In these dark times, "Sensitivity is more important than truth. Feelings are more important than facts. Commitment is more important than individuality. [Angrily] Children are more important than PEOPLE!"
Wait, hold up. Children aren't people? Maybe it was just poor wording, but if that's not what he was trying to say, what was he trying to say? Did he mean to say "pets" there? Because I can see that. It doesn't really fit with the rest of his rant though. Maybe he doesn't realize that children are just younger people, and always confuses them for another race of smaller humanoids, like hobbits? And therefore doesn't understand why they get so many presents at Christmas? Seriously, help me find a way to interpret this that doesn't paint him as a shallow, hateful douchebag.
Fucking almost-humans.
He goes on, "It is sort of politically incorrect just to be male in this country now." Actually, Bill, I think you left out a word. In this country it's politically incorrect to be a male shithead. Is that what you meant? To back up his point, he brings up sitcoms. "The wife is always brilliant and ethereal and right about everything ... and the husband is always a dumb fuck, lucky to have found her. The only smart men on television are Frasier and his brother, both of whom are gayer than Little Richard's underpants." He claims that men in this country live lives of quiet desperation, forced to pretend in order to fit in with this oppressive woman's world.
I don't know, maybe I'm just blind to an obvious problem, but I've always thought that a white, heterosexual male in the United States has it easier than every other race, gender and sexual orientation on the entire planet. I tried flipping around the TV to see what he was talking about with male characters. Isn't Dr. House a smart guy? Jack Bauer? The genius guy on Fringe? The other genius guy on Lie to Me? Don Draper?
He then sarcastically applauds while saying, "Women are smarter than men. If women ran the world, there'd be no wars," saying these are, "... things we don't really believe but we pretend to believe because it's easier to make women nod than to live in the doghouse."
We only allow you to think you are human, because our logical, superior male brains told us to!
This anti-woman ("men's rights" if you like bullshitting yourself) thing is becoming more and more common in the world of talk radio and comedy, and I'm not sure why that is. I recently brought up where Dilbert creator Scott Adams had said the same exact thing. Did these guys get really fucked over in a relationship (Adams is married, Maher is not), and are just taking out their frustrations? Are they just trying to cater to a male audience, and think this is how you draw them in? Is a woman somehow preventing them from becoming even richer than they are now?
#3. Meatloaf Makes Gary Busey Look Sane
There are certain rock stars who you just know are douchebags through and through. Like Gene Simmons. He had a staged sex video he recorded, released, denied and then later admitted to for the sake of publicity. And many of you have heard the bizarre 25 minute long interview he did with NPR in which he desperately defends his intellect in an argument that exists only in his head, first making sexual advances on the female host, then using 50 cent words and literally defining them for her as if she's a child (if you haven't listened to that, you should -- the man comes off like a serial killer).
But on the opposite end of the spectrum is Meatloaf. The man made a career out of producing 12 minute power ballads, and later becoming the lovable teddy bear with huge tits in Fight Club. Who out there thinks anything bad about Meatloaf?
Well, correcting misconceptions like that is why we have reality TV:
That clip is from Celebrity Apprentice, where once-upon-a-time stars are made to do simple grade-school level projects that are clearly designed to prevent them from injuring themselves. So in this episode, they're doing an art project for a charity, and they've just returned from buying arts and crafts supplies. Each star gathers the stuff he bought, but Meatloaf can't find his and immediately blames Gary Busey. Violently.
Right off the bat he explodes, "OK! MOTHERFUCKER!" Someone asks what's wrong, and he erupts like a volcano made of cursing and fat. "I bought those motherfucking sponges! Part of that paint is mine! I'm fucking sick and tired of -- FUCK YOU, MOTHERFUCKER!" Meanwhile, Gary Busey is absolutely calm, explaining that all of the craft items on the table were his.
This only provokes Meatloaf, and the next several several minutes contain the most surreal combination of words I'm likely to ever type. Mark McGrath of the band Sugar Ray holds back a violent, swearing Meatloaf as the bassist from Lonestar separates a confused, innocent looking Gary Busey, while they try to figure out if he stole Meatloaf's arts and crafts supplies.
He screams at Busey, "You look in my eyes -- I am the last person in the fucking world you -- EVER -- fucking want to fuck with!" Everything goes quiet as he settles into a cold, psychotic stare.
Busey makes the mistake of returning the look, and Meatloaf charges.
Luckily Mark McGrath and Lil' Jon were there to hold him back as he pointed at Gary and called him a "fucking piece of shit." It's important to note that the guys all call him "Meat," so as they're getting Busey out of the room and Meatloaf is spewing obscenities, all of the guys are peppering his outbursts with, "Meat! Meat, meat, meat." Not as an encouraging chant, but in soothing rational voices, trying to calm him down.
Gary is taken out into the hallway, and McGrath goes about getting the crafts back from Gary's table. As they're sorting through the supplies, Gary walks back into the room, triggering another eruption of, "But you just don't fucking assume! You fucking ask!" At exactly that moment, the Lonestar guy finds Meatloaf's bag.
It was under the corner of a table the whole time. Gary Busey didn't take a single thing and was absolutely innocent. So Meatloaf apologized.
No, wait, he threw his paint at him and yelled, "Take your fucking spray paint!" Then continued to unload on him until the Lonestar guy explained that they were doing this for sick kids, and his actions were embarrassing. Only then did Meatloaf apologize, and he didn't do it to the guy he had just falsely accused of theft and nearly assaulted.
I realize reality shows are largely staged, and that even when they're not, they are specifically designed to produce screeching matches between spoiled, emotionally stunted human beings. But I don't think he's acting here, and I guess that's upsetting because it means living a life of fame, wealth and sustained success leaves you in an emotional place where you can be driven to a blackout rage over a bag of missing sponges. Isn't that the whole point of getting rich, that you rise to a place where you don't have to get worked up over stupid shit any more?
But what we actually see is the opposite. For instance ...

A cherry bomb is a type of firecracker that's explosion is half of that of an M-80.You can light up one of these and tie it to a brick and throw it into the ocean off the pier. When it blows up, it makes this huge explosion, making a bubble in the water. If there were any fish next to it when it blew up, you'd probably see them float up with it.
My dad liked blowing cherry bombs up in the water when he was a kid, but then those dumbass kids had to blow their hands up. I did'nt even get a chance to try them.
