Make Way for the Mighty Titanic
By Elton Camp
Of its age, it was the crowning achievement
Never would it come to experience bereavement
The powerful ship that even God couldn't sink
Commenced its voyage across the huge drink
For the rich it provided luxury beyond compare
In steerage, the lower classes had their share
Its Captain Smith was a great man of the sea
Not a single one was more respected than he
The crew catered to first classes every need
Provided the finest food, music and great speed
From perils of ocean travel Titanic wasn't exempt
To warnings from other ships she had contempt
Wham! Into an iceberg with the side of the ship
From their mooring many rivets then did rip
Inrushing water carried the enormous ship down
Many of the passengers and crew had to drown
A cataclysmic event from a hundred years ago
To unbridled confidence struck a fatal blow

After visiting her daddy, Tiny realizes that it's time to make the most out of her life by creating a bucket list.
She starts her list with meeting Obama and owning a pet monkey. Shekinah's list, however, is far more eclectic: ride an eighteen-wheeler, be homeless for a day, catch fish, swim with sharks and climb rocks. Can they accomplish these things before the episode ends? We'll find out on Monday.

text: Kettering bowed out of the Setanta Shield tonight, after extra time, as a heavily under strength team was beaten 3-2 at A F C Telford. The even worse news was that Guy Branston was dismissed after receiving two yellow cards and will miss the Fulham game on Saturday. Telford's goals came from Terry Fearns (13), and two from Jamie Vermiglio (52 and 95).Kettering's goals came from Alfie Potter (46) and Jean-Paul Marna (76). In a game which was never dirty, or in some cases competitive, Referee Mr. Rushton managed to accumulate 10 yellow cards including the two for Branston, and also dismissed Mark Cooper for comments made between the first and second half of extra time. Teams : A F C Telford United 1 Ryan Young 2 Martyn Naylor 3 James Meredith 4 Gavin Cowan 5 Stuart Whitehead 6 Liam Blakeman 7 Jon Adams 8 Jamie Vermiglio ( 14 Jimmy Turner 111) 9 Terry Fearns 10 Danny Carey- Bertram (12 Matty Lewis 89) 11 Lee Moore Unused Substitutes: 15 Indy Khela 17 Dean Williams Yellow Cards: Vermiglio (67) Moore (79) Turner (120) Kettering Town : 1 Lee Harper 2 Nicky Eaden 4 Darren Wrack (17 Andre Boucaud 72) 5 Guy Branston 6 John Dempster 7 Alfie Potter (16 Richard Graham 95) 9 Chris Beardsley 10 Jean- Paul Marna 11 David Galbraith 27 Marvin Robinson 32 Craig Westcarr (19 Gareth Seddon 62) Unused substitutes: 13 Stuart Dorrill 38 Enzo Carillo Yellow Cards: Eaden (41) Beardsley (42) Galbraith (53) Branston (82 and 105). Therefore red card 105 mins. Dempster (104) Marna (120) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It was a strange looking Kettering line up which took to the field tonight as Mark Cooper tried to juggle his troops according to the rules of this competition and his injury list. After Jean-Paul Marna shot wide in the opening minutes and Chris Beardsley headed a golden chance wide from a David Galbraith corner- the home team took the lead after 13 minutes. An awful mix up between Nicky Eaden and John Dempster saw the ball gifted to prolific scorer Terry Fearns and he beat Lee Harper easily from 10 yards. From a short corner on 22 minutes- Marna's shot was deflected for a throw in and then Danny Carey- Bertram on the right, shot straight at Harper. Stuart Whitehead attacked a corner but headed wide for Telford. Craig Westcarr and Marna combined well on the left but Marna's cross beat everyone. Then Jon Adams got clear on Telford's right but his pull back was behind all his fellow attackers. Kettering should have equalised on 34 minutes from Eaden's free kick- but Guy Branston headed onto the top of the bar from an excellent position. Lee Moore had a strong shot saved by Harper, and the Kettering keeper repeated the feat again on 43 minutes- this time at the expense of a corner. The last action of the half saw Darren Wrack shoot wide for Kettering Half Time: A F C Telford United 1 - 0 Kettering Town Kettering's first equaliser came a minute after the restart as Gavin Cowan mis-placed a back pass which keeper Ryan Young did well to dive and shovel off the line only to see the follow up from Alfie Potter go in off his gloves. Potter got in another effort almost immediately, which Stuart Whitehead blocked. Telford regained the lead on 52 minutes through a firm strike by Jamie Vermiglio after good work by Moore. Gareth Seddon replaced Westcarr on 62 minutes and his first touch saw his downward header from a Galbraith corner cleared off the line. Lee Moore then almost put in Fearns, but the pass was over-hit. Kettering began to search for an equaliser and Cowan cleared a dangerous Marna cross before Young saved Galbraith's direct free kick. Marna again did well on the left and this time his low cross was met by Branston's right foot and the ball skewed wide. The second equaliser came on 76 minutes as Dempster's throw somehow found its way through to Marna down the right and he made no mistake from 8 yards. Both teams went for a winner with Adams and Vermiglio failing with shots for Telford and Beardsley and Seddon missing for Kettering 90 Minutes : A F C Telford United 2 - 2 Kettering Town Added time saw Telford score the winner after 95 minutes as Vermiglio stole in behind a static defence to head past Harper from Martyn Naylor's free kick. In the first half of extra time, Marna shot wide for Kettering; Harper saved Fearn's shot after Beardsley had lost the ball in midfield; Lewis had the ball in the net but was adjudged offside; Galbraith almost put past his own keeper and Branston was sent off for Kettering for a body check, after apparently being yellow carded earlier in the game for an unexplained dissent. Mark Cooper entered the field of play during the break and was duly dismissed from the playing area by the Referee, as Kettering completed the final 15 minutes with 10 men. In the final period Lee Moore shot over for Telford on 106 minutes; Richard Graham's shot hit the bar on 108 minutes and a minute later Galbraith's deflected shot hit the outside of a post. Jon Adams shot was saved by Harper. In the final moments Kettering threw everything forward and Young saved from Graham; Seddon was wide from a Marna cross and Seddon also had a great chance to equalise but his chip over Young ended up on the top of the net.

Who writes this rubbish? Media jump the shark over Novopay
TVNZ has an article about Novopay, I swear to go it must have been written by an embedded union flunky. Look at this:
A new bug in the beleaguered Novopay system could see education staff sacked at the end of the school term.
The glitch is threatening to terminate contracts on April 21, many of them the contracts of permanent teaching staff.
Epsom Girls Grammar School is among the affected schools, with 21 staff members scheduled for termination.
Really? A software system can over-ride legal and statutory obligations, not to mention contractual employment conditions and unilaterally "sack" staff. What a load of horseshit. However it doesn't get any better.

Rating: A good cupcake with a little icing! (click here to see what it means!)
Harry and Madeleine Winslow have been blessed with talent, money, and charm. Harry is a National Book Award–winning author. Madeleine is a woman of sublime beauty and grace. The Winslows play host to a coterie of close friends and acolytes eager to bask in their golden radiance, whether they are in their bucolic East Hampton cottage, abroad in Rome, or in their comfortable Manhattan brownstone.One weekend, Harry and Maddy meet Claire, who eagerly falls into their welcoming orbit. But soon her reverence transforms into a dangerous desire, and she no longer remains one of their hangers-on.A story of love, lust, deception, and betrayal as seen through the omniscient eyes of Maddy's childhood friend Walter, a narrator akin to Nick Carraway in The Great Gatsby, Indiscretion is an irresistibly sensual page-turner.
My Review:
This is a hard one to review. Every once in awhile, I will come across these kind of books. Love the storyline, hate the characters. Feels the characters are a bit pompous, feel a bit too deserving, and all want see helping others as a "project". So, on one hand, I did enjoy the storyline. On the other, I just couldn't connect with the main characters. I couldn't understand why Harry would risk everything for a 20-something, just for sex-but with a specific someone who befriended the family and friends, then slips into Harry's bed. Perhaps, he was stressed about writing a novel after the success of his first one. Perhaps, he was going through a mid-life crisis and couldn't see beyond the breasts of a young girl that was willing and didn't care what relationships she broke. Or, perhaps, he was just an idiot and didn't feel that he deserved all the goodness of a wife and mother, Maddy was. Yeah…can you tell I really care for Harry??? And, Maddy…she experiences all the anger and humiliation a woman could ever hope to NEVER experience. But, she does. And while I could understand her anger and being hurt, I really just felt that there was a disconnect with her too. I wanted to know more about the couple BEFORE the affair. I wanted to know what made them tick, how the fragility of their son impacted their marriage, and a little more about why they even let Claire (a random stranger) join their group.
This is a book that will either be loved or hated. I don't think the comparisons to The Great Gatsby give this book justice and really sets the book to fail. I often found myself comparing the characters to those of Nick Carraway, Jay Gatsby, Daisy Buchanan, and Tom Buchanan.
My suggestion to future readers: Don't compare it to the book or movies of The Great Gatsby!! Also, read this book with an open mind. If you have issues with infidelity and you are okay with a sad ending, then dive in!
This book was slow in the beginning with huge chunks of information missing for me and speeds up too quickly for me in the end, feeling sad for Maddy and wishing there would have been some joy in the midst of such tragedy.

A 36-year-old Del Rio woman died when her truck crashed into the French Broad River on Friday afternoon, the Tennessee Highway Patrol reported.
According to a report written by Trooper John Woods, Nancy M. Turner died in the 3:30 p.m. crash. Turner was driving a 1989 Chevrolet pickup on Fugate Road when the vehicle ran off the right side of the road, down an embankment and into the French Broad River and floating about 220 feet downstream.
Alcohol did not appear to be a contributing factor the report stated, although the victim was not wearing a seat belt.

Special to the Aiken Standard
NORTH AUGUSTA — E1T1 Elite couldn't have picked a better time than Sunday's title tilt of the Nike Peach Jam at Riverview Park Activities Center to start making 3-pointers.
After struggling from beyond the arc through much of the tournament, E1T1 caught fire when it counted; 12 3-pointers in the finale propelled E1T1 to a 108-102 championship victory over the CP3 All-Stars.
"I've been going through all the games and we've been shooting bad at the 3," head coach Edward Francis said. "I always point it out to them. I say, 'that game where we hit 3s is going to be a special game.' I'm glad it was the championship game."
The title caps an undefeated run through the Peach Jam for E1T1, who won seven of its eight games by double digits. Its last game was the most dramatic, as Francis' squad had to hold off a late surge by CP3. With the stakes raised, the two teams collaborated to produce the highest-scoring game of the week.
"It's a feeling of, just, relief," said Francis after the trophy presentation. "It was a long time to get here, but we got here."
Early on, the championship game looked like it was headed toward another E1T1 blowout. Answering the opening bell with menace, E1T1 raced to an early double-digit lead.
The early deluge was supplied by E1T1's three leading scorers, D'Angelo Russell (22 points), North Carolina commit Joel Berry (22) and Boubacar Moungoro (21).
E1T1 maintained its advantage throughout the first half, entering the break up 53-43. CP3 closed the deficit to as few as two points in the opening frame, but E1T1 kept finding ways to widen the gap.
CP3 clawed back in the second half primarily at the free throw line, attempting 34 of its 50 free throws after intermission. North Carolina commit Theo Pinson led the way for CP3, scoring 16 of his game-high 23 points at the charity stripe.
Another key to CP3's comeback was the post presence of Gary Clark, who posted a double-double with 20 points and 14 rebounds and presented a match-up nightmare down low.
"I told my guys before we came in that (Clark) was going to be a monster," Francis said. "He's always been a monster. I told them just to buckle down and man up."
Francis turned to Alex Owens and Travon Reed to combat Clark in the paint, and they answered the call. Owens snared a game-high 16 rebounds in 24 minutes, while the 7-foot-1 Reed pulled down eight of his own.
Each time E1T1 appeared to close the game out, CP3 clawed back. The lead eventually dwindled to just two points with under 30 seconds to play, but Berry and Duke commit Grayson Allen iced the game with clutch free throws.
"In this thing, there's going to be ups and downs. Teams are going to make runs," Francis said of his team's resolve. "We've just got to stay poised, stay positive and just stay together, no matter what the situation is."

Recognized for exceptional teaching and leadership, three Clovis Community College instructors have been named recipients of the 2012 Excellence Award from the National Institute for Staff and Organizational Development (NISOD).
CCC 2012 NISOD Excellence Award winners are: • Carl Armstrong, Adjunct Physics Instructor • Bradley Heath, Health and Physical Education Instructor • Monica Sanchez, Accounting and Business Administration Instructor
"The NISOD awards symbolize excellence in teaching—Brad Heath, Monica Sanchez and Carl Armstrong are very worthy recipients of this honor," said Dr. Robin Jones, CCC executive vice president. "All three of these instructors keep the student mission in the forefront of their relationships with students and faculty alike. Congratulations to three of CCC's finest!"
Winners were nominated by their peers, with final selections made by the college's Faculty Evaluation Committee. Armstrong, Heath and Sanchez will be recognized for their accomplishments during a ceremony, May 28, at the NISOD Annual Convention in Austin, Texas.
Heath said he was honored to have been chosen for the award by his peers. "I would like to thank my colleagues for nominating and selecting me for this award! I am grateful to be a part of the CCC family and share in the blessings of such a wonderful community we live in!" he said.
"It is a privilege to be a part of the Clovis Community College faculty, and I am especially honored to be recognized by my colleagues and the CCC administration," Sanchez said of her selection for the award.
Seeing the success of his students is a source of satisfaction Armstrong said. "I'm honored to have been selected for the NISOD Award from among all of the other fine instructors at CCC. I really enjoy working with the other faculty and staff and especially with my students. It has been especially rewarding to see how successful my students have been in their physics classes," he said.

Striving to serve, engage and inspire higher education faculty, staff and administrators, NISOD, based in Austin Texas, serves a membership roster of 700 community and technical colleges and universities in five countries.

1 pound
red potatoes, cut into chunks
1 (8 ounce) package
cream cheese, softened
1 cup
shredded Cheddar cheese
1 (3 ounce) can
bacon bits
1 teaspoon
cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons
garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon
grated Parmesan cheese
These were good for a different twist on plain old mashed potatoes. The cayenne definitely gave them a kick, but we really liked it. I did need to add a little milk while mixing because they were a little thicker than we like. Overall they were great! Thanks!
Unfortunately, two stars if you dare to prepare this as written, but very good after significant doctoring up. Way too much cream cheese, while at the same time sorely wanting for butter, milk or sour cream. The amount of cayenne pepper and garlic powder is extraordinarily excessive. Better with cooked and crumbled bacon. Finally, I can't help but think the submitter intended for this to be sprinkled with maybe a 1/4 CUP of Parmesan, not 1/4 tsp? After the above modifications as well as as the addition of a healthy amount of fresh, chopped chives, definitely 4-star quality - creamy and flavorful without assaulting the palate with an overload of garlic and cayenne.

I doubled the amount of potatoes called for (one pound of potatoes was not near enough to feed the four of us, let alone ten), cut the amount of cream cheese by a third and added a little milk to loosen the potatoes up a bit. I also used reduced fat cream cheese. I served this with Elegant Stroganoff Meatballs and a tossed green salad. These potatoes were very good--but I don't think I'd pair them with a rich dish like stroganoff meatballs again. My mistake. We still enjoyed them.
Disgracefully good! I made it with crumbled real bacon, and fat-free cream cheese. The only thing I wish I'd done differently was to use less cayenne - it was a touch too spicy for me. Other than that, this was really good. Would be great with some sliced green onion in it too. Thanks!
These are great potatoes. I did add some cream to give them more of a creamy texture.
Great potatoes!!!!!!! I didn't have the bacon that the recipe called for and I wish that I had it, but they were still great. My youngest daughter ate about three servings!!!!!!
Okay - nothing to rave about.
Way too thick. Needs chives. Will try adding some sour cream next time.

Of course, I want my partner to be good-looking but she must be gregarious, with a pleasant personality and an ability to mix with everyone easily. She must be well-educated,caring and be able to think independently.Besides i expect some one who is capable of loving/respecting me and my parents as her own, she should be some one who is sensible in taking daily routine decisions .I would like my partner to stand up for her own point of view if she feels I am wrong. This, I think, would make for more exciting interaction and a meaningful relationship.
Nevertheless, there must be some common ground. I love reading,travelling and have a wry sense of humour,therefore would like my partner to have good sense of humour, jovial , happy go lucky
person and enjoys a good look too. Finally, someone in whose presence i feel happy most of the time and with whom i can talk anything under the sky.

Stafford cottages that did not stand the test of time
Posted: May 10, 2014|
A BOLD programme by the old Stafford Rural District Council to get rid of buildings which officials considered to be uninhabitable - in other words, slums - was well under way by the late 1950s.
The swing of the demolition man's hammer also saw the disappearance of landmarks on some of the most glorious views of the Staffordshire countryside.
More than 500 properties were demolished in the project which saw many families move from almost remote rural areas into towns and larger villages during the project, which lasted until the 1970s.
Some buildings were deemed worthy of being listed, having architectural or historical importance, while a few had the potential for improvement with the aid of government grants.

Here are a selection of some of the properties which came under the spotlight of planners and environmental health offices.

We've talked about Kotick here before, and we've got him saying both that Activision will leave Blizzard alone and that they'll be seeking additional revenues where they can get them. But Kuchera isn't so balanced -- he's ready to pin Blizzard's decisions, including the idea to cut Starcraft II up into three different games, and the pending monetization of Battle.net on Activision's influence. And the last nail in the coffin is Kotick's recent profile in Forbes, which apparently had the writer calling Rock Band a "knock-off" of Activision's Guitar Hero (even though history says otherwise, since Harmonix, without Activision, created both franchises).
But that gets a little too far into non-Blizzard territory for us. Kuchera finishes by saying that there's two forces at work in Azeroth: "the loyalty of [WoW's] players" and "Kotick's cash lust." And he questions what will happen when the two finally face off. Which is basically what we've been saying for a long time. But the question so far is whether that's happened or not. Have Activision and Kotick pushed Blizzard to make the Starcraft II and Battle.net decisions, or is Blizzard making all of these choices on their own?

WORCESTER, Mass. -- Junior quarterback Dominic Randolph (Amelia, Ohio) completed 22 of 33 passes for 302 yards and two touchdowns, to lead the Holy Cross football team to a 55-0 victory over Georgetown at Fitton Field. The Crusader defense held the Hoyas to just 65 yards of total offense on the day, while posting its third shutout in the last four seasons. Holy Cross improves to 2-1 overall and 1-0 in the Patriot League with the victory, while Georgetown falls to 0-4 overall and 0-2 in the conference.
Holy Cross opened the scoring on its first possession of the game, when freshman wide receiver Josh Jenkins (Maywood, Ill.) ran 17 yards for a touchdown on a reverse. The Crusaders found the end zone again the next time they had the ball, with junior tailback Mike Kielt (Southbury, Conn.) scoring on a one-yard run. Junior placekicker Matt Partain (Libertyville, Ill.) then added a 21-yard field goal to make the score 17-0 at the end of the first quarter.
The Holy Cross offensive onslaught continued in the second quarter, with Randolph tossing touchdown passes of 12 yards to senior tight end Ryan McGuire (Woburn, Mass.) and 15 yards to senior wide receiver Ryan Maher (Boca Raton, Fla.). Partain would add a 26-yard field goal, and Kielt would make his way into the end zone again, from nine yards out, making the score 41-0 at halftime. The Crusaders outgained the Hoyas 439 yards to 33 yards in the first half, while posting 23 first downs to Georgetown's one.
Holy Cross added two more touchdowns in the second half to conclude the scoring. Randolph and senior quarterback Brian McSharry (Abington, Mass.) both scored on one-yard runs.
Maher led all Holy Cross receivers with five catches for 83 yards, as nine different Crusaders caught passes. Six different players also rushed for at least 20 yards, led by sophomore running back Nick Cole (Tucson, Ariz.) with 89 yards on 15 carries. All told, Holy Cross finished with 614 yards of total offense, its highest total in a single game since running up 642 yards in a 63-53 victory over Lafayette on Oct. 20, 2001.
Defensively, the Crusaders were led by senior linebacker Mark Kelliher (Whitman, Mass.) with seven total tackles. Sophomore linebacker Marcus Rodriguez (Peoria, Ariz.) added six tackles and a fumble recovery, while sophomore linebacker Sean Lamkin (Jenks, Okla.) totaled five tackles, two tackles for loss and a fumble recovery.
The Crusaders return to action next Saturday, Sept. 29, when they play host to Yale at Fitton Field. Kickoff is set for 12:00 p.m., in a contest which will be shown live on CN8.

Dundee Drivers Worst for Neglecting Tyres
According to a recent survey carried out by Michelin, drivers in Dundee are the worst in the country for neglecting their tyres.
The results come from a survey of over 4,500 vehicles from across the nation. Not only were the drivers putting themselves at risk by driving around on underinflated tyres, but in the report it is estimated that they are wasting £1.9million worth of fuel and are releasing an extra 4079 tonnes of CO2 into the air.
Perhaps the most alarming of the figures released by the French Tyre Manufacturer, was the fact that 9% of those checked in Dundee were actually driving around on punctured tyres.
Peter Snelling, Michelin's head of communications, said, "This is the perfect opportunity for motorists in Dundee to come and learn how driving with the correct tyre pressure can be beneficial to their bank balance, as well as the environment.
"Driving with the correct tyre pressure also increases safety. It really could be a matter of life and death and people should get into the habit of checking their tyre pressures every month or before a long journey."

The western Newfoundland campus of Memorial University is home to Newfoundland's only professional telescope, a 0.61 m (24") reflector! While its primary functions are teaching and modest research projects, there are frequent viewing opportunities for the general public in the spring, summer and fall. Details for the Summer Public Observing Nights can be found on the Public Tours page.
Visit our Image Gallery to see what the telescope and CCD imaging camera can produce! These are time exposure images of galaxies, star clusters, and nebulae which have been processed to reveal colours and detail not usually visible when seen through an eyepiece.
While visiting the observatory, be sure to walk through our Scale Model Solar System in the upper floor hallway of the new Arts & Science Extention. The planets (plus Pluto) have been placed on the floor at their relative distances from the Sun; can you estimate how far away the next nearest star is at this scale?

New Braunfels building new animal shelter
Humane Society set to open larger facility in December
NEW BRAUNFELS - The only animal shelter serving Comal county is about to get a major upgrade.
The New Braunfels Humane Society is building a brand new shelter to replace the one they've been in for the past 33 years.
"This building is falling down," said Billie Zercher, Executive Director for the Humane Society. "It is old and it is inadequate."
Zercher isn't over-exaggerating the current state of the facility. Built in 1979, it has served as the only animal shelter in the county. The "no kill" shelter takes in strays from the public, as well as the city of New Braunfels and Comal county animal control offices.
"We do not have a set time on how long we hold onto the animals," Zercher said. "We've had animals here 3,4,5 months at a time. We don't have enough space to house the animals that we take into this facility."
The 5,600 square foot facility only has 34 dog kennels and 38 cat kennels. They are at capacity year-round.
The current facility is so overcrowded, they can't even fit all the adoptable cats into one room. They have to use a storage room to house all the kittens at this time of the year.
But that's about to change.
The new facility will be big enough to let everyone spread out.
"The new facility that we're moving to will be double in size," Zercher said. "It's looking at 11,000 square feet with 64 dog kennels and double the space, if not triple the space, for cats. The cats will actually have a play area to be able to play in."
Zercher said a sizable gift from a donor helped them purchase a 16 acre tract of land where the new shelter is already under construction.
This week, the City of New Braunfels pitched in $500,000 to cover the costs of new office space and a new 10 year contract with the shelter to house the city's strays.
The new facility will be more people- and animal-friendly.
"We're going to have an indoor play area for the dogs, so if it's 100 degrees outside or if it's 30 degrees outside, the dogs can still get exercise," Zercher said. "We probably won't have problems filling it up, but I hope they get adopted out a whole lot faster."

Some of my neighbors have inflatable displays of Christmas characters that are deflated during the daytime. They look like, "Crime Scene Santa."
Are you saying you support the celebration of the birth of our lord and savior Jesus Christ? That doesn't make you a hypocrite at all...
Or perhaps she celebrates the pagan holiday that predates the Christian celebration?
Ok, so she is enjoying looking at the soltice lights? I can't tell you how many of my neighbors whip out the winter soltice lights and put them on their winter soltice tree.
I don't consider myself Christian but I enjoy the holidays for what they mean to me - a celebration of family and friends and the chance to recognize how lucky we are and help others out.

"We deliver, with the help of the food bank, 259,000 lbs. of food out of our location alone. During the holidays we help deliver 300 turkey meals," said Holman.
To help serve all those meals the food bank said donations from the community to help make ends meet are always appreciated. Students at the

Officials say $0.91 of every dollar donated to the food bank is put right back into serving the community. The Food Bank says in fiscal year 2013 they served just over two million meals and now they're on track to serving four million.

Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. iPhone 5S: Which smartphone should you buy?
- By Ryan Whitwam on February 27, 2014 at 2:20 pm
- Comment
Share This article
Samsung is the only Android OEM that can stand on its own against the Apple juggernaut, and the Korean company has finally taken the wraps off its new flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S5 . This device comes with improved hardware and an array of interesting sensors, but Samsung has also cleaned up its software and focused its attention on fewer features. Let's break it down and see how the Galaxy S5 compares to Apple's iPhone 5S .
Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. iPhone 5S: Design
The Galaxy series of devices are always getting bigger, but the increase in size is less substantial this time. The Galaxy S5 has a 5.1-inch screen with slim bezels that keep it from being too ungainly — 72.5mm across. The back is made of plastic with a dimple pattern that reminds many of a Band-Aid. It might not be the most elegant look, but it provides some much needed grip.
Apple's devices have always been more slim than Samsung's, and the difference is only becoming more stark as Android handsets continue to scale up. The iPhone 5S has a 4-inch screen and is only 58.6mm across. It's much easier to use one-handed, but the tradeoff is screen real estate. The iPhone has an aluminum composite frame that feels very solid and keeps the phone from being too hefty.
Another aspect to consider is Samsung's new water and dust resistant design. Last year there was a separate product for this feature (the GS4 Active), but now the Galaxy S5 can be dunked and splashed with no consequences. The removable back panel has a rubber gasket that seals the sensitive components, and there's a cover on the USB 3.0 port to keep water out. The Galaxy S5 is rated IP67, which should keep it dry for up to 30 minutes in a few feet of water, but Samsung encouraged potential buyers at its announcement not to push it that far. Still, compare that to the iPhone 5S with its warranty-voiding water sensors that can be triggered by the most miniscule amount of moisture.
Both devices include a fingerprint reader under the home button, but Apple has a more futuristic sort of implementation than Samsung. Samsung included a familiar swipe reader in its home button, so users have to drag straight down across the button to be recognized. The iPhone's Touch ID system can learn and recognize your fingerprint when you lay a finger flat on the button, which is much more convenient when you're pressing it. Watch the video below to see how clumsy the Samsung implementation can be.
Samsung ups the ante by including a heart rate sensor on the back of the phone. It plugs into the S Health app and it might actually get a lot of use — your finger is only a few centimeters from the reader, after all.
Samsung Galaxy S5 vs. iPhone 5S: Cameras
The iPhone 5S packs an 8MP rear-facing camera that routinely produces some of the best images available on a smartphone. It's not just the stellar back-side illuminated sensor that makes that happen, it's the two-stage flash that keeps objects from looking blown out or too dark when ambient light is low.
Samsung bumped the Galaxy S5 up to a 16MP sensor from 13 in its last flagship. One of the issues with a 16MP image sensor is that it can take a long time to acquire the image. Samsung has partially rectified that by using an advanced technique called phase-detect autofocus. This lets the Galaxy S5 focus on its target in 0.3 seconds, which should close the speed gap considerably.
Samsung has also added the option to capture 4K video with the Galaxy S5. At that point you're just left worrying about the amount of storage space being eaten up on the GS5's limited internal storage — it doesn't help that Samsung leaves you with less than 8GB to work with on the 16GB model.
The 2013 Android flagships like the HTC One and Galaxy S4 were vast improvements over past Android devices, but Apple was still the clear winner in overall image quality. This year, Samsung might have the right combination of features to win this matchup. Early impressions suggest that Samsung's camera is very good indeed, but we need more time with it before declaring an absolute winner.

Wow, the Galaxy really does look like shit. It's a nice powerful phone though, it's just a shame about that case. I think the Iphone is the better looking phone by a mile, there's really no contest there – the finish makes it look like a piece of jewellery.
The Galaxy seems to be the choice for people who want a more powerful phone and bigger screen. I just wouldn't want to be seen holding that large slab of plastic when making a phone call.
Depends on how big you are really.
I'm 6 2, and with a crown and boots a bit more.
The Note 3 I have looks just fine; I couldn't stand the shorter battery life or the features I would lose with s5 or 5s.
Funny how they are the same two letters actually.
I'm disappointed that there's no 2k screen on the s5. Samsung said it was on the roadmap, however they said for the year meaning it could be on the Note 4.
I just want a 4k screen on the Note 5 and 8k eventually and then I'm 'done' with phones.
A 4K or 8k on a phone? Do you have any idea what that would do to battery life? Plus, the human eye can't even see the difference between 720 and 1080 on a phone screen. Anything more than maybe 300ppi on a phone is useless.
Also, you said that the Galaxy S5 doesn't have a 2k screen. 2k means it has approximately 2,000 horizontal pixels(when holding in landscape) so technically it DOES have a 2k screen. 1920×1080. The horizontal resolution is 1920 or ~2000. 4k is 3840×2160 so the horizontal resolution is ~4000 which is why it is called 4k. 8k is 7680×4320
I pretty much disregarded his post when he said that lol! 4k phones… people can be so dumb sometimes.
Just a corection 2k is 2048 × 1080 4k is 4096×3072 ian 8k is 8192 × 4320.What you said ,3840×2160, is Ultra HD.
I'm not sure where you are getting those resolutions but they aren't right. None of those resolutions match up with any common aspect ratios. I have seen several resolutions referred to as 2k, 4k and 8k and none of them correspond to the resolutions you have listed.
Your 2k = 1.9:1
Your 4k = 1.33:1 (that is 4:3 which is the same aspect ratio as old SD TVs)
Your 8k = 1.9:1
Ya, the 4k is really weird. It's actually more like 4X. Why they used the K is beyond me. It's total pixel count…
I.E. 1920×1080 = 2,073,600 total pixels on the screen.
3840×2160 = 8,294,400 total pixels on the screen. Exactly 4x the difference. Why they used the K,… who knows unless they wanted to be difficult and go against vertical (but horozontal isn't 4k either so… /shrug).
Humberto Yi
We all know that, but it's not what it's used for in this situation… There is no 4 thousand.. The closest would be 3840 which is still 160 off the mark. And up to now, it's always been dead-on accurate: 720p 1080i or p, etc.
However the 4k seemed to be an inside term used to reference Ultra High Definition, basically at least 3840×2160 pixels in size. UHD would be more appropriate but 4k seems to be the latest 'buzzword'… God knows why…?!?
Humberto Yi
4K does exist, that's misinformation. 4K is/was suppose to be the digital cinema standard, of 4096×2160, and I believe you can buy, or will be able to buy projectors in actual 4K format, but I don't know of any TV's that are actually 4K. Ultra HD is suppose to be 3840×2160, but agreed, everything is labeled 4K, even though most or all of it isn't. The new thing appears to be "4K UHD" which is obviously garbage labeling.
Who makes calls on these things anymore?
agreed ^^ though im an android enthusiast galaxy isnt that appealing to my eyes…
Yeah I'm an Android fan too. I don't own an iphone, but I do like the look of them.
are u on crack
Samsung's design is really beautiful, makes iPhone look dated in comparison. Apple could really do with a change of design.
Yeah they should ditch the shiny machined aluminium look for plastic with dimples, lol!
Siri Tim Cook Holness
The Samsung S5 is a horrible looking
phone. Not even in the same league as the Apple iPhone 5S.
Looks aside, no doubt it's a capable phone. I'm trying to talk
my friend out of buying a S5, he only wants it because he hates Apple
products. He's the type that has to be right about everything.
He could end up with 2 paper cups and a string and still would argue
that it's the best phone out there because it's not Apple. Some
people should just admit that Apple makes beautiful products that are
easy to use and work awesome, but foolish pride will never allow it,
so the plastic phone crowd will continue to whine and bitch about
Apple while using there virus infested Microsoft products and ugly goofy google droid phones. LoL
cool story fanboy
So you buy a phone only for looks? Typical clueless iphone user. They have the market cornered for old people who know nothing about technology, while Android has the superior technology and features.
Well versed in every aspect of technology and far from old thank you very much, so since I'm not part of what you consider to be the majority of Apple users I can tell you with no doubt Apple products are ranked at the top. which is why so many companies are scrambling to copy them. I have no problem with people who dislike Apple products for valid reasons, but your analogy is asinine.

joke of the year… "while Android has the superior technology and features" ie micro SD, removable battery, malware, virus popups etc… and on Samsung extra innovation ie laggy UI,

I've only owned android because I hate Apple. The Iphone is a great phone, the ipad is a great tablet, however, Apple is a horrible company with gawd awful practices. They are stuck in Kindergarten, they refuse to play with anyone else, it's Apple's way, or they take the ball and go home. Lightning charger, none MP4 video, no MP3 audio, it's just idiotic. It doesn't matter how good the phone is, I'm not buying a bunch of songs in a proprietary format, when apple might not even be making phones in 5 years, for all we know RCA could be the biggest phone maker in 10 years, or some company not even around today.
Lighting port is ultra fast, I have a draw full of them from ebay for 99 cents each with free shipping. ACC is much better than MP3. If you are going to follow the hater crowd at least do some research.
Humberto Yi
Lightning port is still usb 2.0 last time I checked, it's running no faster standard than micro usb. It does allow for a faster charging rate, as micro usb is limited normally to about 1.8 amps at 5 volts (although there are some 2.0 amp chargers now), or about 9-10 watts (depending on amperage), and the the lightning is rated at "Up to 12 watts", I find that a stretch to call it ultra fast, and it only effects charging. ACC vs. mp3 is so close it's opinion, 256 kbps aac vs mp3 are indistinguishable, and the mp3 at the same encoding rate of 256 kbps is smaller. My point from the original post, is not that Apple makes bad products, they don't, they are outstanding products, but they could sell even more and have a wider audience if they gave up on some of the proprietary BS they use.

Neither, Android is the reigning malware king and Apples interface is so boring/dated. Although I do like the Apple case, it's getting dated too.
What are you hinting at then? Windows Phone? Firefox? Blackberry?
Something that actually excites me. It takes more than a big screen to get me going. I really like my Windows 8 phone, but I want a more classier looking phone. Not something that looks the same as the one everyone else already has.
Blackberry is only good for 100s of texts, aka either you're a lawyer or a drug lord. Both work hand in hand, and both professions may be held by the same person. :P
They have a q20 coming out which is a 3.5″ screen + the original trackpad & keyboard.
Personally Idc for them or WP.
Firefox is interesting because I've used Firefox for a decade and they have a $25 smartphone coming out.
Other third world companies do too, but Firefox has a brand name in the West which has led to sales in Spain and elsewhere.
Will be interesting to see and good overall. I shouldn't have to pay an arm and a leg to text my relatives in other countries. With cheap smartphones + whatsapp it'll be simpler and easier (cheaper).
Firefox appears to be moving to an ad based model, which means I'm the product, just like on Android. I'll happily pay for an ad free existence.
Prasad Velkuri
then you should really try those chinese phones as you can see whole lot of designs released everyday.
sebastian giacana
why do you think obama is not allowed to use his iphone?
Jamell Lewis
If Obama can't use his iPhone, he DEFINITELY can't use an android phone!
Jamell, don't waste you time on this crowd. They parrot what they read on forums and most of them have never even owned or tried an Apple product. I've had arguments with some people who think Windows Vista is the best O/S since sliced bread.
If users are careful about what they install on their phones, Android is just peachy. The problem is everyone just says 'Ohh new game!' and slams it on their phone. Even some VERY popular games do data sniffing. ALWAYS check the permissions completely and watch for changing permissions.
The iphone is from the last decade, hasn't changed in years, it's a bore
Not a fair comparison given 5S is a 2013 model and S5 is a 2014 model. It won't be fair either then Apple launches 6, in late 2014. Longer term, Samsung will get commoditized by cheaper Android players. They know this, hence the watch on Tizen. Apple either gets lots more cooler gear to tie people in, or its market share fades as people look again to cheaper phones.
It has 1/3rd the resolution, it was never a comparison. 1080p or 720 is good because you can watch most video at its native res.
720p is probably the best because many movies increase in size exponentially from there. However, for reading and other things 1080p is better. May also be amoled, and personal preference.
Like the author said, iPhone is good for doing things; if you do them Apple's way. I don't like that way, so I stick to customization.
"Apple's devices have always been more slim than Samsung's". I think this is a bit of a stretch. The iPhone 5s is .30 inches deep. The iPhone 4s is .37 inches. The Galaxy S4 is .31 and the S5 will be .32. Those numbers are so close together that it is hard to say that Apple devices have always been more slim. While the iPhone 5s is slimmer than the new Galaxy S5, the 4S was pretty bulky compared to the others.
Edit Sources: iPhone info came from Apple site and Samsung from GSMArena
Flash? Why doesn't anyone talk about the most important part for people that really love cutting cable? Its very important to alot of people, especially techies that love nothing more then to be able to access things on the internet without obstacles. Flash is the only reason i haven't upgraded to a Samsung phone. Because they've restricted access to it, they've basically become just as worthless as Iphone. I have a 4 year old Evo 3d that lets me view what i want, when i want online. I side loaded a Flash APK and to this day, it does what i want it to do. I constantly show this feature to all my friends and coworkers and they look at me with such sadness and disappointment that they don't have the same ability. Trust me, when you want to watch a game online, there is nothing better than a phone with Flash on it!
Firefox… Puffin, dolphin….
Tried to do it for my friends Galaxy S3, it didn't do it. For some reason, the newer Android 4.2 and above don't handle Flash. Not sure why. Even with Firefox and all the adblocks included, the flash sites wouldn't load the player.
Wrong! It does work on my note 2 just fine…
You must be talking about sites that don't distribute content that corporations would be mad about.

I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and despite it not being supported and not being available on Google Play, i have installed it on my phone direct from Adobe's site!
Do your research properly!
Yes you can install flash on your android device — search on google and you will find it. By the way, no need to jailbreak the phone.
Its simple. If you want a pretty phone that matches your high heels and fits into your G-string but doesn't have alot of awesome tech features that would replace a laptop, then dude, yeah you deserve an Iphone! If you want something that is tech powerful, full of features that make it a must have for people that love intergrating and replacing devices and consolidating your devices into one device, thus replacing a laptop, then you deserve a Samsung dude!. Its really just who you are. If you are a social butterfly that is constantly texting and giggling at your phone like an idiot, by all means, get your Iphone! If you are a tech hound that wants to push your tech to the limits, then get your Samsung!
Wow, what a convincing argument… I'll be replacing my 17 inch i7 laptop with a shitty little phone straight away!
diablo escarlata
Lol…Yea, I got the WTF look.
Please max. Show some respect for the big boys in computing. Do not ever! compare snap dragon or A7 with intel i7. (Not even going into xenon and the like)
But he is right, samsung (because of android) is kicking iphone kiddos badly. Is like two monsters against one.
Max is waiting for his parents to give him his allowance so he can crawl out of his parents basement, get on his bicycle with pink tassels and ride down to the local Walmart to buy the next big thing. lmao

Its getting there, lets see what happens with the LG G3
Its getting there, lets see what happens with the LG G3
^ Nothing to see here, just a trolololol.
So i saw the Olympics for free on my phone on a 4 year old android HTC Evo 3d! Guess how many of my Iphone friends got to do the same? Zilch! Zippola! None! Because Apple doesn't support Flash!
Mo Friedrich
Which is a freaking good decision considering there is HTML5 which website owners should be forced to move to, which is exactly what Apple does ;)
You keep enjoying your good decisions while i enjoy an awesome free internet!

Correction, there is a web browser on the AppStore called Photon Flash Player For iPhone. Gives you full flash support. Soooooooooo with that being said, Majority of people who "diss" the iPhone don't know nothing about the iPhone. iPhone users just don't go around bragging.
red rover
IPhone users don't go around bragging? You're kidding right? Have you even read through this thread?
Apple is the only company who's fans just start to make things up just to save image. ..sad it kinda reminds me of the down fall MySpace had when Facebook blew up
Ivor O'Connor
Which phone to buy? The first one that makes it to the Google Play Store of course.
Nexus 5.
Ivor O'Connor
So what about battery life? Can you take it with your for an extended three day weekend? I miss those old phones that you could take with you for weeks. They don't make them like that anylonger!
And what about readability in the sunlight? Can you use it outdoors in direct sunlight? Or is that next years model?
Extended 3 day weekend? You'll be lucky if you get a full day. If the Galaxy S5 gets the same battery life as my Nexus 5(4 hours screen on time with 15 hours off charger) it will be a HUGE improvement over the Galaxy S4. I have a hard time believing it will be that much better.
Absolutely, take and extra battery or 2 with you. An iphone will be lucky to get one day
red rover
Well they do still sell feature phones. If you want one, just get one.
Ivor O'Connor
I want those features in a modern smart phone. If it makes the modern smart phone weigh 20 oz instead of 10 so be it. I bet there would be a big market for it too. All those people who want the latest apps on a phone they can see and actually use over the weekend would be a best seller for years.
red rover
Give it time. I think you'll get what you want.
Angel Ham
What's the point anyway? The first thing people do to these beautiful phones in order to keep the casing from getting scratches is to stick them into a rubber casing.
James Howlett
Why does every new phone have to be compared to an iPhone ?
the iPhone 5 is old technology, it doesn't offer anythng useful
Before anybody mentions fingerprint reader, Motorola had it years ago.
Before anybody mentions 64 bit processor,
how useful is a 64 bit processor with a maximum of 1GB of RAM ?
how many apps are currently optimized for use with that 64 bit processor ?
The iPhone is not a true smartphone, its just an accessory item to go with handbags or shoes.
Last question :
Is this an Apple sponsored site ?
Mo Friedrich
Every new phone has to be compared to the iPhone because the tech experts everywhere agree that it shares the top position among high end smartphones with others, such as the Samsung Galaxy series.
The iPhone 5S is current technology which you could see if you took a look at the actual interior.
Motorola had fingerprint readers implemented years ago, yes. But it was more of a useless gimmick than a serious authentication method, whereas Apple crafted a pretty fine piece of tech into the home button – ever tried it? It works virtually 360 degree, takes less than a second to verify a fingerprint and is, considering you trust any US comany, stored encrypted and securely in a special storage compartment of the internal firmware flash.
64 Bit isn't just of use to adress more memory, it also allows of a much richer feature set of processor instructions, which gives app developers the ability to make their apps faster, more reliable and efficient. That ain't just marketing bullshit, it really makes a huge impact if devs code their apps appropriately.
Not all apps are currently optimized, but most will be soon. And don't forget that this was a long-term decision, as we will definitely need 64 bit mobile processors in the near future.
Just because you don't know how to properly configure and use an iPhone, don't mock others for it. iPhones are used in business settings because they integrate well with Windows Server structures aswell as Apple is considerably more trustworthy than Google – you can lock down iPhones so much that they don't send any unwanted packages to Cuppertino.
Also, considering older, less tech-savy people – like my mom, some clients, … – a fast, responsive, consistent, clear and well-structured UI is extra important.
Isn't this article moot after you have already published an article stating that the GS5 is the best phone money can buy.
Samsung, hire some designers.
and a marketer that can create a naming convention.
I love my S4… But not interested in the S5… Past the point of diminishing returns on the PPI count there. All battery burn at that point. I don't mind my S4's plastic case as it's always in another case anyhow to make it thicker. But with KitKat now, it's insanely fast (surprised the difference it made, and happily!) and fluid. Only if the camera was a tad faster. But I needed external memory and extended battery so the HTC didn't fit the bill this go-around.
Stacey Bright
So yeah, Nexus 5 is really the best phone anyone could spend their money on. Particularly if they aren't in love with Apple.
Rick N
Sony Z2
the LG G2 & Xperia Z2 are serious considerations too… Samsung have dropped the ball with the S5
"There isn't really a direct
comparison because the platforms are so different, but the iPhone 5S
does just fine with its 64-bit A7 SoC…" This is SO BIASED! I'm sorry, I just can't take you opinion accountable, because it seems like your brand loyalty to Apple makes you refuse to acknowledge which one is the better phone. Bigger screen, better camera… Yeah, Samsung S5 is the better phone… and btw, I am a Mac computer lover. I am NOT biased, I can just tell which is the better phone. You're supposed to be the expert here.
Prasad Velkuri
I think camera is not yet tested, and bigger screen is not always better. whats your point?
you are biased. plain and simple.
I love how all the insults for iPhone user's are "it's an accessory to go with your heels" and other illogical statements that have nothing to do with the comparison or anything in general. This isn't a fashion show so you can stop with the lame statements. Moving on, a lot of user's on here have already discussed the UI, design, speed, and features very well so I'm not going to repeat anything of that, but I do want to say is, a phone for me isn't just about performance and design, but also the FEEL. When I hold my iphone it feels great, the UI feels so powerful (I have mine jailbroken), and it all connects so fluidly. On an S5, the feel is not even on the same par at all (and the S5 design looks like a downgrade to the S4). The UI is speedy and good on a S5, but I personally dislike the clutter and how unnecessary a lot of the things are on the home screen and the icons doesn't look near as polished. Lastly, the resolution PPI was discussed on here frequently, one major part that wasn't mentioned is color balance. If you don't have proper balance in your colors of the UI and camera, it is gonna make photos and other images look totally off. The iPhone excels in color balance and one of the most accurate phones to do that. For me, I will wait for the iPhone 6 and stick with my 5 for the year.

Plastic piece of shit could never hold it's own against any iphone
Siri Tim Cook Holness
Iphone 5s anyday
Siri Tim Cook Holness
Even iphone 1 is superior to that shitty slab of plastic
The S4 looks much nicer, why couldn't S5 have more focus on the design, some of the concept on you tube looked amazing. They've ruined the S5. No innovation, lack of design appeal, 5″ is just perfect why make a phone bigger than that then its not a phone anymore. Samsung you've ruined the S5.
The sales speak a whole different language then you buddy…

The iPhone looks nice no doubt. Metal and glass are nice, but that only takes it so far. The features are what matters and how the phone work and for ME android is better. I really want to hold the SGS5 before I make a judgement about it. I would love Galaxy phone with metal and glass at about 4.5 displays.
your stupid
LOL at the conclusion.. it's going to be a tough call this year? the S5 completely owns that little toy that they call an iPhone!

Samsung's new Android flagship comes with a built-in 'Download Booster' mode that basically allows you to downloads large files (over 30MB) using both your Wi-Fi connection and cellular network at the same time, combining their bandwidth for zippier downloads. . This will come in handy, especially for users who are in a hurry to download a big file.

Spitballin' (or Super Pass It To Bulis: All In, if you love adventurous acronymizing) is a feature that allows us to touch on a multitude of things really fast, because in the world of hockey, there are always lots of things to find and colour. Here are a few quick topics.
Here is a comic
Since everything is depressing right now, let's start with the funny. Check out this excellent re-working of a Hark! A Vagrant comic, which now stars Eddie Lack and Roberto Luongo.
Lack's pursuit of Luongo's friendship is common knowledge around these parts, so this is pretty great. Who made this? We must know, as you have made us very happy.
The original comic, if you're wondering, stars Jules Verne and Edgar Allan Poe. They weren't contemporaries, but Verne adored Poe and was heavily-inspired by him, especially a story Poe once wrote about a balloon journey.
If you want to find a relationship between two contemporary American authors that was about this creepy, though, read up on Herman Melville and Nathaniel Hawthorne.
Alex Burrows is chasing history, although it may be chasing him — it's a fluid situation
Supposing Alex Burrows' season ended right this instant, he would finish the year at 64 shots on net without a single goal, which would put him right in line with some of the most futile seasons in recent history. Among NHL forwards since 1990, only Craig Adams, Bill Muckalt, and Paul Laus finished the year with more shots and an equal number, or absence, of goals.
But here's the major difference between Burrows and these guys: they took a full season to get where they are on this list, all averaging about a shot per game. Burrows landed in their camp in just 24 outings. He's averaging 2.4 shots per game.
You simply don't shoot that often and not score. Even Gilles Marotte, who holds the NHL record for most shots in a single season without scoring at 153, got there in 73 games. That's a shots per game average of 2.1. In other words, if Burrows actually does manage to shut himself out for the year, he'd be the highest-volume shooter ever to do so.
So will Burrows finish the season goalless? I'd say stranger things have happened, but they haven't. They actually haven't.
What's his deal, anyway?
It can't be injuries, after all. He's healthy, right?
Yes and no. It's important to understand that Burrows has missed over half the year, which means the rest of the league is in mid-season form, and he's not.
But more than that, he's still suffering the effects of the broken jaw, in a sense. Playing with a protector that can, at times, obscure his view of his own feet, Burrows is in tough to do what he normally does, which is jam in pucks from in close. This is a guy who scores most of his goals a foot from the net by being first to them. The extra split-second it's taking him to locate pucks at his feet is probably killing him.
Henrik Sedin is terrified
Back to funny. We've talked, in the past, about how Zdeno Chara shuts down the Sedins with aplomb. It's mostly due to his super long hockey stick, which allows him to singlehandedly break up the Sedins' cycle by simply standing between them and pokechecking every which way but loose.
However, it doesn't hurt that he's a terrifying, actual monster, as this AP photo demonstrates:
Again: this is a real photo from Associated Press. It is amazing. Seriously, can you imagine playing hockey against this guy? Now imagine doing it with busted-up ribs. No wonder Henrik looks so scared.
Soon you get to cheer for a good team
Finally, as mentioned, Pass it to Bulis will be transitioning into Pass it to Zamuner for the Sochi Olympics over the weekend, and to kickstart that process, here's Tanbir Rana's excellent Team Canada pump-up video:
I submit that Burrows is a good player, but became a great player once he found his Mojo with the Sedins. The Sedins have lost their Mojo, ergo, so has Burrows. I remember when he was up and coming how frustrating it seemed that he got so many great chances and couldn't convert.
The Sedins are to Burrows what Lemieux was to Kevin Stevens. Or Gretzky to about everyone he ever played with…
I hope you're right. But the way Burr has ben playing, the shot will beat the goalie, bounce off the butt of his stick, bounce out in front, bouncing off one of the Toronto d-men and in–but not before it deflects of Schroeder's shadow, awarding him the goal.
Seriously, for someone who'se had so much bad luck this year with injuries, Shredder has been amzingly lucky.
The whole team is playing with invisible chin guards right now. Possibly to make Burr feel better. Every time someone mishandles the puck without being checked, which is often lately, just say "chin guard", and take a drink. It makes the games more fun to watch.

Shayla Worley
Aug 16, 2013
ATHENS-----Former University of Georgia gymnast Shayla Worley was inducted into the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame Thursday as a member of the 2007 U.S. Women's Artistic Gymnastics World Championship Team.
Worley and six of her teammates were honored at the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony held in conjunction with the 2013 U.S. Championships in Hartford, Conn. Joining Worley were Shawn Johnson, Alicia Sacramone, Anastasia Liukin, Sam Peszek, Ivana Hong and Bridget Sloan.
Worley and her teammates won the team gold medal in Stuttgart, Germany, which was the second gold ever for the USA and the first World Championships team outside of the United States. The U.S. Women's Team won a total of seven medals total - four gold, two silver and one bronze - from the World Championships, and the U.S. women qualified for the 2008 Olympic Games with their performance.
As a senior in 2013, Worley helped lead the Gym Dogs to the NCAA Super Six. She was named Southeast Region Gymnast of the Year and earned All-America honors on bars and beam. The Orlando, Fla., native also shared the SEC beam title.
The 2013 U.S. Championships will air Thursday and Friday at 8 p.m. on the NBC Sports Network and Saturday and Sunday on NBC.

I'm not new to editing but relatively new to hosting/posting them anywhere othern than youtube.
I'm doing regular work for a personal training/ fitness company who wants to film & post weekly videos onlinein a secure password protected manner for clients to download when they're travelng. We're talking roughly 3-5 video's a week about 5 minutes in length each.
I am a new user of the Canon XF300, and I have some questions regarding storage and editing of the MXF files. When I store on blu-rays, I loose the link to the XF Utility software, is it possible to re-link later, or is it better to not use Utility at all?

When you're working with lots video, one of the major roadblock can be how much storage you have access to. This problem is compounded when working with mobile devices that often have only a few gigabytes with which to store your data. Enter the Kingston Wi-Drive 64GB. This device feels like it's tailormade for us.
Our company Dempsey Film Group has closed it's doors and we've been selling all kinds of stuff. Most of it is sold but we still have a SNAS storage system that is still available for sale. It's a 96 TB system that's all Mac based. This was used as a shared network attached storage and worked awesome for our 6 edit suites and graphic workers... It is my understanding that you can use this as a SAS unit as well or I am willing to part it out for the right prices and If I get a lot of response.

Hi Everyone,
I'm going to be traveling and shooting approx 3 hours everyday around S.E. Asia for 3 months. I'm deciding between a Canon HFS and HFN 31 right now but want to be able to download and backup footage every couple of days. What would be the most lightweight option to do this? I first thought of the MacBook Air but it doesn't have a firewire port and only one USB post. Is there a PC option or am I missing something like a go-between that would literally make it possible to download files directly from the camera to a hard drive?

Damn Food Waste!
29 Jun 13
Two days ago members of the Youth Food Movement Netherlands headed out to fields around Amsterdam to glean vegetables left behind after the harvest. Too small, irregularly shaped or slightly blemished, the tons of produce deemed "unfit" by retailers constitutes just a segment of the food waste that occurs from field-to-fork: around one third of global production. Today this fresh and healthy produce is being offered in a free lunch for 5000 people: a public action to urge everyone to help stop wasteful food practices – from farms to distribution networks and from company boardrooms to home kitchens.
Following in the successful footsteps of actions by the Slow Food Youth Network in Berlin (SchnippelDisko) and France (DiscoSoupe), today's Damn Food Waste/Disco Soep event at the Museumplein Amsterdam is a first for the Netherlands. Volunteers met at the Amsterdam Food Bank yesterday to wash, peel, and chop more than a thousand pounds of the "unwanted" vegetables and will today serve the huge pots of soup and curry in the prominent city square from 12 pm – 6 pm, with DJs to entertain the crowds.
Of the annual 4.4 billion euros of food wasted in the Netherlands, more than half is thrown away by Dutch consumers – around 110 lbs per person. This is equivalent to around 100,000 garbage truck loads of good edible food going to waste, much of it having travelled long distances. The Dutch government is aiming to achieve a 20% decrease in food waste by 2015 and the EU wants to see a 50% decrease of food waste by 2025.
Today's event is linked to the worldwide campaign against food waste Feeding the 5000, initiated by Tristram Stuart, author of Waste: Uncovering the Global Food Scandal (Penguin, 2009).
Damn Food Waste is an initiative of Youth Food Movement with FoodGuerrilla (NCDO), Voedingscentrum, Wageningen UR, Natuur & Milieu and Feeding the 5000/EU Fusions.

The Medford City Council could leave some residents in the dark this summer, after a proposal to turn off street lights, in an attempt to save money.
Street lights could be turned off this July and August on Columbus, West Main, Jackson, and Peach streets-- all in west Medford.
The two month project would serve as a study to determine if the plan will go citywide.
Some council members are not backing the idea-- saying the lack of light would spark fear in residents.
