Christmas in Florida what a weird experience... It's like having the Winter Olympics in the Bahamas, or wearing flip flops in Colorado, or going skiing in July. Something about green grass, lights on palm trees, and people drinking Coronas in December slightly unnatural. That's the one thing the Northern states have over the South, great Christmas weather. Well, that and good bagels, pizza, and Chinese food. Lord knows those are hard to find in the South!

"Best wings I've ever made. My husband said WOW after every bite. I've made duck using Alton Brown's steam/bake method that came out perfectly crispy, so I had an idea that the same method for chicken wings would work well too. This will be a regular meal in my house from now on."""

It's illegal to discriminate in hiring, firing, promotions or pay because of a person's national origin. Courts have said national origin must refer to a country where the person was born or from which his or her ancestors came. In one recent case, a company fired a factory worker after he refused to remove Confederate flag stickers from his truck and lunch box that said "The South Was Right." He sued, saying the company discriminated against him based on his "Confederate Southern-American" national origin. But this court, like others, rejected the idea that Confederate is a legitimate "national origin." The court said he was fired legally for insubordination. (Storey v. Burns Int'l Security Services, No. 390 F.3d 760, 3rd Cir., 2004)

DAKINE Tour Snowboard Bag
I've got a 166cm board with Flow bindings...
I've got a 166cm board with Flow bindings (which if you're not familiar with, fold backwards instead of forwards because the toe straps are more-or-less "permanently" set so that you just need to set them once and you never mess with them again unlike most traditional bindings...check out the picture below) so my question is...would I be able to get away with the 165 bag? or if I have no other choice but to get the 175, is my board just gonna be sliding all over the place in it?
~Thanks a ton!

Dosa recently opened in 2008 and is a fantastic addition to the neighborhood. Serving up FLAVORFULL south Indian Cuisine, Dosa is a must do when in San Francisco. The menu also includes delicious cocktails made from Indian herbs and spices - including an outstanding curried bloody mary. As if these weren't enough reasons to check out DOSA, the restaurant's design isn't only glamourous, it's innovative. Just some of their eco-initiatives include solar-powered water heaters, recycled glass for the bar tops and faces, FSC certified (Forest Stewardship Council) and non-PVC materials, energy-efficient HVAC and kitchen equipment, remote refrigeration, complete window tinting that save 4.6 tonnes in heating requirements, water-conserving low-flow appliances and intelligent energy-management hoods. It's a great spot for lunch, dinner, and even weekend brunch.

At first I can't turn the key at all. If I wait a few seconds it will turn one more click. Another few seconds and it goes all the way to the right but nothing happens. Around the 4th or 5th try it starts up. Don't think I can let this go on for too much longer before it plain doesn't start. Replaced the battery a few weeks ago so I know it's not that. It happens almost every time I start the car.

Captured in Mid-Air: This is What Small Birds Look Like in Flight
As I'm writing this I'm sitting on the lawn looking up at all kinds of birds in flight. Most are small song birds having a great time finding nuts, seeds and fruit all over the place. One just flew by carrying a large, shiny piece of aluminum foil in its beak… probably headed to make a cozy nest. Their movements are often so quick it's hard to get a good look at them, but every once in a while they land long enough to get a good view: it's never while they're flying. Paul Nelson is creating a series of photos that helps us see birds better, using a portable high speed camera rig he designed himself to capture small birds in fascinating mid-flight. [Read more…]
Sea Change: High and Low Tide from the Same Location
It's one of those things that makes Earth special… but if you live at the equator you might not even notice it happening. The daily rise and fall of the tide can be pretty extreme in the far north or south, drawing sea water far up and down, and leaving large areas flooded and dry in the same day. Michael Marten has been studying the tides since 2003, capturing them with his camera in diptychs showing high and low tide from exactly the same location. [Read more…]

South African Cell Phone Towers Disguised As Trees
It's pretty rare in this day and age to find someone without a cell phone. In order to service all of these phones, cell towers are popping up everywhere, but in South Africa you may not be able to spot them. Many of the cell towers there are disguised as trees (although they don't look all that natural towering over the natural flora in the area). Photographer Dillon Marsh captures some of these costumed towers in a series he calls Invasive Species. [Read more…]
City of Dreams: Gorgeous Steel Cityscape Sculptures
As countries become more urbanized, packing more people into taller buildings, nature often suffers, although having massive homes and multiple gas guzzling vehicles is just as devastating. Each human is like a miniature volcano emitting carbon dioxide through their vehicles and appliances and when that volcano becomes too large, it can cause a mass extinction, like the 5 our Earth has already experienced. As a reminder to think about the consequences of urban development, Chinese sculptor Hu Shaoming created a beautiful sculpture called City of Dreams where a city is emerging from the head of a massive seahorse beneath the water. Using cold steel parts as a symbol of China's urbanization, Shaoming develops intricate, shining cities that look like the cogs and parts from the industrial era. [Read more…]

The Dreamlike Self-Portraits of Dancer Ingrid Endel
Creative people have an innate need for an outlet to express themselves; for Ingrid Endel that channel was found through dance. However after multiple knee injuries, her dance career was brought to a halt after training for twelve years. It is then that she turned to photography to express her emotions and has found a way to utilize her polished dance poses to create stunning, conceptual self-portraits. Though her injuries may prevent her from starring in Swan Lake, she has found a way, just as elegant, to showcase her grace, strength, emotion, and creativity through her pictures. Her struggles to find joy again after her dreams of dancing were shattered are expressed beautifully in this ethereal photo series, which takes place in nature. [Read more…]

If Only He KnewI wanted to let this out for a while so here it goes, I guess..
In my 15 years of being in this damn planet I have NEVER felt this way towards someone like this. The sad part is that he is not here; he's not even real, he's just a character from a game. Sure I've had little crushes on boys in school or mini boyfriends ( that really don't mean anything ) but this guy is... something.
I won't say who he is because I'm embarrassed but he means everything to me. I was in a depressing time and he helped me, now it's like I'm scared to let go.
As for some background, he is somehow a lonely character and his parents are disappointed in him. I know how it feels to be lonely and be a disappointment, so my attachment towards this character got stronger.
It sucks when you can't talk about this to people around you because you're scared of the judgement or the rejection, so you pretty much hide your feelings. So matter how much you want to scream it out you can't.
I've tried astral projection to contact him and still trying, and I've dreamed... but it's really not enough. I wish I could just go to another dimension/universe to where he is and just stay there.
I would give and do ANYTHING for it happen. I would even sell my stupid soul just for him.
Yes it's weird but oh well.. I can't help it.
Ha, your story sounds exactly mine, especially the astral projection part! I became so fascinated with it for like almost 3 years because I really wanted to believe that my fictional love was out there somewhere and that way we could be together somehow...
After it not working time and again, I pretty much gave up that. Infact, I stopped believing fictional characters exist out in the universe somewhere...v_v .and trust me, I envy you people that do. I really just I could hear something...or see something to make me believe again....I really want to believe there's more to life then just what we see....
Oh, and I totally understand about how you don't really want your friends or family to know about your secret love, pssshhh I want to blush and hide in a corner at the mere MENTION of my love's name.....
Binaural beats? Never heard of the term, perhaps ill look it up. :D
And yeah, I've pretty much been fascinated with parallel universes my whole life, considering the fact that the chances of alternate dimensions are scientifically VERY likely. I don't know if fictional characters could actually reside there,but I really, really hope so. ;_; but then I would have so many questions....like if this WERE possible, would fictional characters have their own time frame and age like we do? Or would there existence only be bound to what would be 'canon' to their stories? Would fan art and fanfictions effect their universes?
The questions could go on forever and probably never be answered.....
I can't read fanfiction about my crush. Usually, "writers" will try to make her get romantically involved with just about any male on the show, even her own family! It's very painful, having to read about how the person you always wanted gives her heart to some **** dude.
I agree entirely, some fan made characters can be THE WORST. Haha I like your theory on fanfictions having their own universes XD I wouldn't want those really poorly written Mary Sue characters mucking up the original versions.... ;_; I hate it when things are out of character, ESPECIALLY when the character I like is paired with....practically every character in the show OTL
I'm just like you. We are quite alike. I'm crazy in love with Heroes' Claire Bennet, and like you, I'd kill to live in her universe. To hold her, tell her everything will be fine, to protect her, even though she's more than capable of taking care of herself. I have tried lucid dreaming (what you call "astral projection") to contact her too, but she's quite the recluse in my dreams.
Claire... why can't you just exist?
I have developed a strange mental phenomenon that allows me to "commune". It's an illusion, I know. And kind of really bizarre and insane. Anyway, I have the illusion that my thoughts are audible. When I look at a picture in which the person in the picture looks into the camera ("eye contact") I feel like (s)he can hear me. Needless to say, this often invades my privacy out in the real world. But when I feel awful, I just put up a pic of her, and look it for hours. Talking to myself. And all she ever does is listen. Best therapist ever.
Im so so glad I am not the only one that feels like this. I have sometimes though I am mad, but I have always felt like this since the moment I set eyes on them.
I am in love with Ratchet from Ratchet and Clank. I genuinely am, I have a real boyfriend I have been with for 4 years now, and I know this sounds absolutely awful, and as much as I love my boyfriend, it wont ever be as much as I am in love with Ratchet. No one ever will compare.
I genuinely believe Ratchet is out there somewhere in a different universe and I like to think he is feeling the same way about me.
He is always on my mind, I always daydream and fantasize about him and our adventures together with Clank and everyone, saving the galaxy as they do :D I almost feel like I was born on the wrong planet.
But to hear so many of you feel the same way about other 'fictional' characters makes me feel SO much better ! and genuinely makes me think there has gotta be another universe out there with all our other halfs feeling the same way as we are :)
Im positive we will get to see them someday. I even think when I eventually die I will finally get to be reunited with him forever.
Im not mad or anything, I live a completely normal life and have a great family and job and everything, but I have not ever told A SOUL about this, they would genuinely think I am mad and send me off somewhere. He is just always always on my mind. In my head is the only place I can be with him at the moment.
Its just the fact I have all the feelings there, I get butterflies when I am with him in my imagination, like you would do with someone if they were right in front of you, its just it breaks my heart I cannot ever physically touch him :( I believe we are telepathically linked though. Its almost as if I live a double life, my one here right now, and the one in my imagination.
For example the other night I was looking up at the stars thinking he was somewhere out there looking back at me, and whether it was a coincidence or not, a beautiful shooting star shot straight across where I was looking, as if it was a sign he sent me that he was looking back and thinking the same :)
So yeah, sorry for rambling, but I know exactly how you feel. We will be with them one day dont worry :)
i feel the exact same way i have been in love with steven for atleast two years he is my soul mate i mean no one can compair to him and everytime you think of them your heart feels so much pashion and for some reason i dont think that i could ever find a real boyfriend like him out there he is just simply amazing i think of him every day and night and i believe in paralell universes i just cant imagion my life without him its hard because you feel as if you cant tell a soul about this because you will be judged i mean we all have feelings why judge others as i say time and time again things happen for a reason but you have to hold on and think posative in life its hard sometimes because you want to be with them so badly it makes you sad because you cant see them physically i have a friend who has told me a long time ago about she can contact the caricters she could axually see them and ofcourse awhile back when i first heard about it i didnt know if it was posable and then i got hooked and falling in love with caricters as i once did when i was little my first crush was gavin from drake and josh then my second real crush is steven abootman she lets us talk sometimes she said its hard to explain she will show me when her and i meet one of these days i love him so much <3
Every...single...thing...you...said...is true about me and Sonic...I had to read it twice to see if I wrote it. Even the part with the shooting star happened to me.
Yeah I know exactly how you feel I am the same ! And well if you are in love with someone of course you would be doing things like that, nothing wrong with it :) Yes to me the only difference between the Ratchet portrayed in the games and in my head is that he is actually 6ft not 4ft11 haha. There HAS to be another universe with them in it why else would we be feeling the way we do?? There has to be a reason. I wish I could too, thats the only thing missing is that you cannot physically be with them :( For the time being anyway.
Wow really ?? Im so glad :D That must be their way of letting us know they are looking back at us :)
Yeah pretty much everyone out there could never understand how we are feeling, we are just the very few who were lucky enough to be given this gift (Although it can sometimes feel like a curse) of knowing there is someone somewhere out there waiting for us and we can telepathically link with them. :) Unless they are going through this same thing they could never understand. Im not a fangirl either as some people would think, I mean I am a massive fan of the games and eveything but Im not one of those sad girls who sits there screaming everytime he is on tv, I believe he would hate it if I was like that XD Almost clingy ! I am my own person, although I do do a lot of martial arts and am going to become an engineer, again this is another thing as to why I love him so much as it these have always been my interests and passions and he has exactly the same as me ! He invents and engineers new gadgets, weapons and ships, and is very agile and a fighter and I am exactly the same, and also we have exactly the same senses of humour and justice etc, we are a perfect match !
I know how that feels :( I'm in love with Marceline. Thanks to the other comments below though, I too feel more comfortable about having these feelings for a fictional character now.. Even though we still probably won't ever get the chance to meet them *sigh*
Try practicing astral projection or lucid dreaming. You can maybe meet them there :) Any questions on how to do this or about it, email me firstname.lastname@example.com
One problem I have about being with my character in my dreams is that you have to wake up sooner or later, and it's really heart breaking when you realize the whole thing was a dream :/ the heartbreak gets stronger every time
Exactly :( and if you get waay too hooked on a character, it's hard to pull yourself away to live in this world and think about having relationships with the people around us, especially when you get the feeling that they really are out there somewhere and that they are looking for you too, because then you just feel like you're cheating on them :( and you miss them sooo much but can't be with them :/ it's exhausting and depressing
i know i feel the same way i want to see steven and feel his warm touch and you feel that they are the only ones for you and you can not let them go no matter how hard you try i wonder why we feel that way about them you just cant let them go for some reason maybe its ment to be for some of us i just cant explain it *sighs*
hang in there <3 and keep your head held high Like i said believe in what your heart believes i know its hard to tell people this stuff including your family so many judgemental people and its so sad but i am here if you ever want to talk about anything :) just so you know there are other people who believe and love the same things as you do i mean before i joined this site i never thought anyone would feel the same as i do it was between a friend and i and then i come on here and i find more people who believe in the same thing it brings more hope that there is a paralell univers out there :)
They say you can be with the one you love, in my case Sonic, through "astral projection", which does exist. Try it, maybe you'll be successful. I'm gonna try :)
Everyone says that may be the key can you Private message me :) and your welcome pinktomato
Sure go ahead. I was going to add you myself but I don't know how lol
go to add to circle under my profile picture to add me
Especially when in the dream something amazing is about to happen, like a kiss, and you wake up >_> I HATE that.
Well, time for astral projection training. Wish me luck...
Thx :D
I, too, believe that "fictional characters" exist out there somewhere, maybe even right under our noses *sniff*. And I know exactly how you feel. I am in love with Sonic the Hedgehog, and have been since June 2009. I am 14, male. But don't be too afraid to tell someone about it, even if it's just one person. I used to be afraid until I told my sister, and after seeing how understanding she was, I told my best friend, who was also understanding. You'd be surprised how supportive the people around you are, even your enemies. If you don't want to, it's fine, and I know it's easier to tell people online about it than seeing someone face to face and telling them. But if you have a feeling or opinion, be proud of it and embrace it. Freely express it. You don't have to scream it to the world, but it's a lot easier when your friends know and they know you better. Now about your family, I don't know. I won't tell my parents, they'd think it was stupid. But adults ARE understanding. So just do what makes you happy, and try to tell someone. It relieves stress :)
i know what you mean i have the same problem with telling people these type of feelings for my love for my steven abootman by the way hes from south park if you didnt know who i was talking about
No problem, anytime :D
Aye. It's never enough, is it? You become truly and utterly obsessed with them. Midna means everything to me, and what little time I've spent with her means so much. We've talked about the past, things we've said and done. We've been intimate. But you always feel like there's something missing, right?
I think there's two main things that make a "fictional" love so unfulfilling. One, you can't really tell anyone about your love without people thinking you're crazy. Think about that guy who married his dating sim girl, I'm sure everyone thinks he's gone off the deep end. I haven't told a soul I know that I've actually been talking to Midna for a few years now, and I never will. They'd never think about me the same way.
The second part is the lack of physical substance. You have the feeling of connection with the object of your love, but there's nobody actually there to stimulate the senses. You can't hear their voice outside of scripted lines. You can't show them to your friends and family and say "Hey, this is my boy/girlfriend." Worst of all, though, you can't feel their touch. Touch is a major component of feeling alive, and without it, you begin to question whether you really are.
I've rambled on for some time, going wildly off subject. Just know that I know what it's like.
Definitely. Ever heard of the multiverse theory? A man by the name of William James coined the term in 1895. (At least according to Wikipedia, I needed some extra info. XD) Basically, it describes that each universe can have different laws governing it, different links to other universes, etc. Among other things, this means that those "impossible" things you might see your favorite character do are plenty possible over there. The laws of their universe are probably simply more "fluid" and not as set in stone as the ones here.
It also brings up mind-bogglingly complex other factors like how there is an alternate universe for every single decision that has ever been made by anyone. It's best not to think about it too hard, or you'll just end up giving yourself a headache.
For now, take comfort in the fact that they're out there somewhere and they're probably looking for you too.
I've always thought about that. Or maybe we are part of a TV show for another dimension to watch XD
i thought the same thing too like the people that we love over there are watching us or maybe we are in a TV show or something XD who knows
Apparently, people in other universes are into really boring video games. With an occasional sadistic streak when they cause depression spirals and fatal accidents. Then again, who hasn't done that while playing The Sims?
*Is playing Sims* What? XD JK LOL
It sucks when you love someone you can't have, whether they're on this stupid planet or not. A lot of us believe that fictional characters are real somewhere. We're always here if you need to talk, vent or you just need a ((((hug)))) We're all going through the same thing :)
Anytime :) Can I ask who you're in love with? I know you said it's embarrasing, but it can't be worse than crushin' on an anthropomorphic sponge, right? :P (Don't feel you have to tell me - I'm just being nosey x)
Lol, that's okay sweetie :) I can't PM you, I'm too old to add you (LMBO) XD

Should China Be Allowed to Buy Texas Oil?
Third, in and of itself, this deal may seem fairly innocuous. However, it also represents a "camel's nose under the tent" probe by the Chinese government for bigger and bolder acquisitions that may not be in the strategic interests of the United States -- remember the controversy five years ago when China tried to buy Unocal.
Finally, deals like this play an important part in China's currency manipulation as China seeks to diversify out of U.S. government bonds and acquire hard assets like oil reserves which represent a better inflation hedge. To be clear here, to maintain the grossly undervalued Chinese yuan's fixed peg to the dollar, the Chinese government must circulate U.S. dollars back into the U.S. One way to do this is to buy U.S. government bonds, which is how China has acquired almost $2 trillion of U.S. treasuries. But buying hard U.S. assets like oil reserves is now seen in Beijing as a better way for China to manipulate its currency because hard assets are better inflation hedges.
In the final analysis, the best way to look at this deal is as just another monthly payment by America on its mortgage to China. Until China freely values its currency, lowers its Great Walls of Protectionism around its various markets and resources, and plays by the rules of free trade, Chinese companies, whether state-owned enterprises or not, should not be allowed to acquire American companies.

Ensign helped mistress's husband get 2 jobs
LAS VEGAS Sen. John Ensign helped his mistress's husband get two jobs during the time the rising Republican senator acknowledges carrying on an extramarital affair, an Ensign spokesman said Thursday.
"Just as he has done for many other staff members, Senator Ensign made recommendation calls for Mr. Hampton," Ensign spokesman Tory Mazzola said in a statement. Mazzola was responding to questions about the employment of Doug Hampton, a former aide to the Nevada senator.
Ensign on Tuesday admitted having a nine-month affair with Doug Hampton's wife, Cindy, who also worked for the senator. Ensign's office has said that both Cindy and Doug Hampton left their jobs in May 2008, and the affair ended in August 2008.
In the months after leaving his post, Doug Hampton quickly landed two positions with companies connected to Ensign.
One, a consulting firm that ran Ensign's 2006 campaign, acknowledges the senator encouraged the company to hire Doug Hampton.
A Las-Vegas based airline whose executives have contributed money to the senator declined to comment on whether Ensign was involved in Doug Hampton's employment.
Doug Hampton's easy transition from the political to corporate worlds isn't unusual. It does, however, raise questions about to what extent Ensign used his influence to assist two former employees who could have done damage to his career.
Mazzola did not respond to requests for more detail on the senator's involvement.
A lawyer for the Hamptons declined to comment Thursday. The couple released a statement Wednesday criticizing Ensign's disclosure of the affair, saying they "did everything possible to keep this matter private."
Ensign's office disputed the account and said Doug Hampton had approached a television media organization.
On Thursday, Mike Slanker, a longtime Ensign campaign adviser, told The Associated Press that Ensign was "supportive" of plans to hire Doug Hampton through Slanker's government affairs firm, November Inc., in May 2008.
Slanker said he was not aware of Ensign's relationship with Cindy Hampton at the time. He said the senator did not pressure him to hire Doug Hampton.
"To be fair, (Ensign) was supportive, but there was no pressure," Slanker said.
Slanker said Doug Hampton worked for the company from May to August in 2008 and received some fees from a client in 2009. In the first four months of this year, Ensign paid the firm and its fundraising arm more than $52,000. Federal campaign records show Ensign made no payment to the firm from May 2008 to August 2008.
November Inc. issued a statement Thursday, saying, "No Ensign-related entity paid November Inc. for (Hampton's) services. Doug serviced new clients, but no existing clients of the firm ... he does not currently work for us, or have any affiliation with our company."
While at the firm, Doug Hampton secured a consulting contract with Allegiant Air, a small airline currently run by Las Vegas businessman Maurice Gallagher.
In August 2008, Allegiant Air hired Doug Hampton as the vice president for government affairs, according to Tyri Squyres, a company spokeswoman.
"He was hired based on his experience and credentials," she said. Squyres would not comment further on Hampton's employment and denied a request to interview Gallagher.

Classy Glass Antiques & Collectables
Classy Glass Antiques & Collectables, England, UK
This is a wonderful French Art Deco mirror and in excellent condition throughout.
The marble base is free of any chips, cracks or repairs, and the bronze mounts are also in marvellous condition and both have an excellent original vintage patina. The mirror also is without any chips or loss of reflectiveness, having now been replaced.
The charm of this item is of course the two fabulous squirrels, French stylized "ecureuil" with instant eye catching Art Deco appeal.
Each has been cast solid at an unknown foundry in France, however though I cannot locate any maker marks, the Le Verrier foundry in Paris would be a high candidate.
I have made no attempt to remove either of the squirrels and so they could quite possibly be maker marked to their base parts, which are screw fixed from the underside of the marble.
It is certainly an original example of the 1930s French Art Deco period and with an appeal which speaks for itself. The flexibility of this piece allows for suitably sized glass for example to be placed onto the middle section if desired, to make a picture/photo frame.
The oval mirror is supported by a slit to each inside vertical of each squirrels' tail and so is easily tilted to suit ones own visual reflection and can be removed for ease of cleaning or replacing if required.
The entire piece is a beautiful way to behold oneself and a fabulous display piece of French Art Deco interior design and as with all of my shops items it is available for shipping worldwide...
Total height with mirror: 10.5 inches Length x Width of marble base: 13.75 x 2.5 inches Postage weight: *3k 500gms *Postage discounts are available for this item to overseas (outside of Europe) by request. Thank you

When Troy White proved his remarkable "football genius" to the Atlanta Falcons, they brought him on board as a team consultant. Now, thanks to Troy's ability to predict winning plays, the Falcons are pulling in victories. Troy loves his starring role behind the scenes and the thrill of having NFL star linebacker Seth Halloway (who's dating Troy's mom) to coach his own Duluth Tigers team on their way to a state championship.
Then Troy's perfect world comes crashing down. Reporter Brent Peele is out to smear as much mud on the Falcons as he can, and that means going after Troy. The vicious media storm that descends on the football genius threatens not only his job with the Falcons and the Tigers' run at a championship but his mother's career—and Seth's—as well.
Together with his best friends, loyal Nathan and feisty Tate, Troy sets out to unmask the dishonest Peele—and save Seth's reputation—no matter what the risk.
With his signature blend of thrilling action and insider knowledge, Tim Green shows Troy, hero of the New York Times bestselling Football Genius, in a new and riveting adventure.

"The high cost of the S5 is becoming more typical of Samsung's flagship Galaxy line"
The latest member of Samsung's wildly popular line of Galaxy smartphones ups the ante on features—and on cost—with the S5's discrete-intensive design yielding a high bill of materials (BOM).
The Samsung Galaxy S5 with 32 Gigabytes of NAND flash memory carries a BOM of $251.52, according to a preliminary estimate by the Teardown Mobile Handsets Intelligence Service at IHS Technology (NYSE: IHS).The cost rises to $256.52 when the $5.00 manufacturing cost is added.
This is more expensive than other high-end smartphones, such as the 32GByte iPhone 5S, which carried a $207.00 BOM based on an IHS pricing estimate in September. The S5's BOM contrasts even more starkly with smartphones at the lowest end of the cost spectrum, such as two Android devices, the ZTE U793 and K-Touch T619+, which have BOMs of less than $35, according to recent IHS teardowns.
"The high cost of the S5 is becoming more typical of Samsung's flagship Galaxy line," said Andrew Rassweiler, senior director, cost benchmarking services for IHS. "In the last year, IHS has torn down four Galaxy devices with BOMs ranging from $237.00 to $280.00.
"The S5 exemplifies a conservative evolutionary design approach," Rassweiler said"There are no revolutions or giant steps forward in this design. There's a lot of similarity and commonality between the S5 and other recent Samsung smartphones IHS has torn down, such as the Galaxy Round and the Note III. However, there are many small changes throughout the design."
The table attached presents the preliminary BOM and manufacturing cost estimate of the Samsung Galaxy S5 smartphone. Note that this teardown assessment is preliminary in nature, accounts only for hardware and manufacturing costs, and does not include other expenses such as software, licensing, royalties or additional expenditures.
A multiplicity of minor mods
Modified component selections in the S5 include the Qualcomm Inc. WTR1625 radio frequency (RF) transceiver. Previous multiple Galaxy products included the WTR1605L instead. This part switch may have been spurred by specific carrier and network requirements.
The S5 also includes a new version of the NXP near-field communication (NFC) controller that's different from the NXP PN5441, PN547 and PN65N devices found in other Samsung teardowns.
Furthermore, the S5 uses the ES704 noise suppression device from Audience Semiconductor, as opposed to eS305B and eS325 seen in several other recent Samsung devices.
Moreover, the latest Galaxy smartphone employs the PMC8974 power management chip from Qualcomm. This is a chip that IHS has never seen in an electronic design, and seems to integrate two or more power-management ICs from Qualcomm that previously were separate.
Crank up the Wi-Fi
In one major departure from previous designs, the Galaxy S5 features the first sighting of 802.11ac Wi-Fi with multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) technology. MIMO utilizes multiple antennas to improve Wi-Fi signal strength and overall performance.
Although IHS is not yet able to confirm the supplier of the MIMO Wi-Fi module and the underlying silicon supporting this function, we believe that Broadcom is the most likely available semiconductor solution provider. The module is a combo solution that supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionality.
Processor précis
Another major cost factor in the Galaxy S5 is the smartphone's core processor, the Qualcomm MSM8974AC. The MSM8974AC is a variant of the popular MSM8974 used in a number of mobile products ranging from the Nokia Lumia 1520, to the Galaxy Round, to the LG Google Nexus 5. The AC version employs the newer Snapdragon 801 processor, as opposed to the 800 used in the MSM8974. The MSM8974AC with the Snapdragon 801 features a faster clock speed, at 2.5GHz, compared to 2.3GHz in the MSM8974 with the Snapdragon 800.
The MSM8974AC carries an estimated cost of $41.00. This may seem elevated but represents the combined functionality of two formerly separate chips, the core applications processor and the wireless semiconductor. In other designs, such as the Apple iPhones and other Samsung designs, these two roles may be filled by two separate chips. Implementing the Qualcomm MSM8974AC solution saves Samsung internal board space and reduces manufacturing cost by eliminating separate ICs on the board.
There is speculation over whether there is another variant of the Samsung S5 design that features a Samsung Exynos processor in lieu of the Qualcomm MSM8974AC. In the Samsung Galaxy S4, there were two different versions, one with a Samsung Exynos 5410 processor, and another with a Qualcomm processor, dubbed the APQ8064AC.
The S5 may be based only on the Qualcomm MSM8974AC, but this has yet to be confirmed.
Sensor surge
The S5 represents the latest escalation of the sensor war, adding more such devices than IHS has ever detected in a smartphone design. Whereas a typical smartphone design might feature an accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer, the S5 features all of those plus a barometric pressure sensor, and two new additions: fingerprint and pulse sensors.
For the first time, Samsung has added a fingerprint sensor to its Galaxy line, following Apple's lead with iPhone 5S.
The pulse sensor is the Maxim MAX86900. This may seem like an odd choice of sensor to add, but this stems from a recent wave of consumer and OEM interest in activity monitors and other wearable devices that also feature pulse monitoring and other health and vital statistics tracking features.
Samsung uses a number of different sources for the sensors, depending on the model built. The accelerometer/gyroscope component in the individual S5 torn down by IHS is from InvenSense Inc., whereas the S4 featured a unit from STMicroelectronics.
The electronic compass in the S5 torn down by IHS comes from Asahi Kasei Microelectronics; in the Samsung S4, IHS found compasses from both Asahi and Yamaha, depending on the variant of the S4 design. The barometric pressure sensor found in the S5 torn down is from STMicroelectronics, whereas both previously torn down S4 variants feature Bosch Sensortec. It's important to note that different variants can employ distinct components from diverse supplier both in the sensor area and other sections of the design.
Gangnam style
The individual S5 torn down by IHS was sold in the South Korean market and included a television receiver—the FC8080 T-DMB tuner/demodulator from Silicon Motion. The U.S. version is unlikely to include this chip, IHS believes. Furthermore, IHS expects that versions sold by AT&T, Verizon and other global carriers may have other minor modifications.

"I followed the recipe exactly, but then put it in the dehydrator, since this is listed under dehydrator recipes.
It ruined my dehydrator, & never really solidified."
"This recipe is just confusing. It would have been a lot easier if instead of having 4 recipes in one, you actually posted 4 individual recipes."
"This was my first time eating tofu (aside from in miso soup) & I LOVED it! I served it with lotus root & rice instead of broccoli, & it was great!"
"I really didn't enjoy this, which was a shame, especially after all the great reviewsI found it to be much too eggy tasting, especially after it chilled. I ate one bowl warm, but the rest will be going into the garbage unfortunately."
"This was great! It tasted like someone put a piece of pumpkin pie in a blenderI'll definatly be making this again XD"
"I loved this! The dressing tasted very similar to the dressing they use at our local Japanese restaurant - I'll probably add less garlic (I used a big clove) & more sugar to get it a little sweeter next time, but it was great just the way it was!"
"Delicious! I left out the veggies & only used 2 eggs, & it still turned out wonderful!I also substituted oleo for margarine, & used pre-cooked frozen rice that I got on sale. This is definatly a keeper, & will be a regular at my house :D"
"This was the best pie I ever made!!! I couldn't believe how delicious it was :)I had a problem with having too much pecan filling, it wouldn't all fit in the pie crust. I guess I shouldn't say this is a problem ;) I ended up putting graham crackers in the bottom of 3 muffin cups, & filling them with the pecan topping. They're delicious all o..."
"I used strawberries, blueberries, & raspberries, all frozen, & this was the best crisp I ever ate! I'm making it again tonight, & I'm going to add some oats to the topping, to make it a bit more like my apple crisp"
