Dreamcast Gems: Part 2
More underrated games
Welcome to Part 2 of Dreamcast's most underappreciated games!
Presented by Echidna64
In Part 1, I left you guys with a teaser picture-
This is a screenshot from the game Outtrigger. From the youtube videos, this game looked like it would be a heavy hitting twin brother of unreal tournamant.
But when I got a chance to play it myself, I was disappointed. Even though you could switch to first and third person views, the control scheme was aggravating to say the least. Sorry guys!
One more thing before we get started...
I found about this insane survival/horror game for Dreamcast called D2. It looks very intense but unfortunately I wasn't able to play it myself so I can't review it. However, here is a gameplay video...
For mature viewers only
Cue the underrated games!
Armada smoothly combines rpg elements and a space shooter. It has full weapon customization and the entire universe is free roaming. It's a simplified rpg that you can just pickup and start blowing stuff up. Also, the explosions look cool.
Repetitive gameplay
Toy Commander-
This game totally exceeded my expectations. This game is great and it flaunts it brilliantly. You have a vast number of different vehicles- tanks, cars, airplanes, helicopters etc. at your disposal. Tear it up in huge 3-D environments. I was really impressed with the levels. To give land vehicles an edge over aircraft, they let you drive up walls and upside down on ceilings. Your house is the warzone.
Limited weapon selection
Gundam Side Story-
This is everything that a mech game should be. It has epic customization, slick graphics, free roaming through vast cityscapes, a versatile combat system, and intelligent teammates. Dueling it out with a sword and shield is also amazing!
Poor peripherals, tricky movement
Space Channel 5-
Aliens have invaded and they are forcing people to dance! Space Channel 5 is wildly original and it has some killer beats which makes this game all the more addicting. You play as Ulala, a futuristic reporter who dances her way to victory over the brain warping U.F.O's. The graphics are solid and the dance moves are well choreographed. There is also a cameo by space Michael Jackson!
Confused target audience, sometimes hard to hear what moves you need to do
Ikaruga is one of those games that you try to beat to earn street cred. You love it because it is so challenging! Ikaruga is different from other games in its genre because you switch between red and blue energies which cause you either to absorb or get totalled by projectiles. Expect to be blown up a lot!
The difficulty makes this game not for your casual gamer
Psychic Force 2012-
I enjoyed Psychic Force, being able to "fly" around in a fighting game and executing high level psychic attacks is pretty sweet. The characters are typical Japanese badasses. It's a cool change of pace and the combat system is kinda like the DBZ games today.
Controls could be better
As a bonus, I'm including a Special Requests Section...
A couple games have been asked for in my first Dreamcast Gems article. I actually have played both of these games beforehand. Here's what I have to say about them...
Elemental Gimmick Gear-
E.G.G. is a very unique game. It has an in depth sci-fi storyline. It truly creates it's own world. The environments are artistic and well conceived. One of its biggest strengths is it's 3-D combat system which boosts the gameplay of any RPG. I can't praise E.G.G. enough for its originality, try it yourself and get lost in it.
Bad:Heavily storyline based which could turnoff some people
Yes the game is in English, I just liked this screenshot
You play as Capcom characters as you blast your way through arcade style with one or two players. The action is nonstop and the enemies are satisfying. My favorite is the zombie gorilla from the haunted house level. Being able to play as Megaman totally makes this game.
I really don't like the targetting system and camera angles
In Conclusion
Dreamcast had a excellent lineup of game titles. I blame it on poor advertising for why these great games fell into obscurity. I'm not lying when I say that there are many more fun Dreamcast games. I haven't even touched upon racing, puzzle, or sports games.
Hopefully, I have increased your curiosity about the system and perhaps inspired you to give Dreamcast a second chance. Cheers!

hired 13 times on Thumbtack
Now offering piano lessons for beginners.
The piano is the "Rosetta Stone" of musical instruments. Piano instruction offers both the skill of playing the instrument, as well as a comprehensive understanding of music theory and practice. The same musical language may be applied to most of the instruments around the world.
Many musicians who learned the piano have, in turn, picked up on other instruments with ease, and they even compose their own music. Musical training teaches multitasking, coordination of mind and body, and appreciation of music that is unattainable otherwise.
Music helps people discover abilities they didn't realize they possessed. One learns the process of learning itself: how to examine problems and how to work toward solutions. It helps with emotional balance, offering the ability to work out problems while you play. Learning to play music with others also teaches cooperation and compatibility.
When learning an instrument, One discovers music in new ways, the appreciation of great masterworks and may encourage new possibilities for the future. I highly recommend everyone to learn music, it brightens the mind and brings joy to the heart.

TCTI: Too Crazy To Ignore
Dave Ross
< Dave Ross
Could the neighbors have prevented Newtown?
In the year since the Sandy Hook Massacre, Daily News reporter Matt Lysiak actually lived in Newtown, Connecticut writing a book about whether this tragedy could have been prevented.
We've all heard that the gunman, Adam Lanza, suffered from an extreme form of Asperger's, but Lysiak focuses on his mother, Nancy, who became his first victim - and the strange choices she made, considering how ill her son was, to the point that he blacked out his windows and created a 7 foot by 4 foot spreadsheet documenting past mass shootings.
"It was meticulous, and he had another spreadsheet that was a check off list on things to do to prepare for a killing, so this was premeditated," says Lysiak.
Let's not skirt what made the difference here. It's one thing to be mentally ill, it's another thing to be mentally ill and have access to weapons like this. And Nancy apparently had been teaching him to use weapons since he was 4 years old.
"She encouraged it. She took him to the shooting range," says Lysiak.
Was there a critical mass of neighbors who knew he had mental illness and access to guns?
"This tragedy could have been prevented," says Lysiak. "This is why I felt it was important to write this book. There were many, many steps all along the way where people were like, wow, that's weird you let him around guns. I've talked to people who've told me that. I was like 'Well did you say anything to Nancy?' [They were like] 'No, she's a very independent spirit.'"
Matt Lysiak author of "Newtown: An American Tragedy" says, as tough as it is, when neighbors see a family out of control, they should find a way to intervene.

Motorola Moto G (2014)Compare8.5 reviewWhile most of the buzz has been for its brother the new Moto X, there is officially a new Moto G as well. Of course, there isn't exactly all that much that is new about the device, as it shares quite a bit in common with last year's Moto G. The major difference this year is in the design of the device, while the internals are only a modest update overall compared to last year's Moto G. On the outside, the changes can be summed up in two points: the display is now 5-inches rather than 4.5, and there are stereo front speakers. That's about it. On the inside, the cameras have gotten modest updates (8-megapixels in the rear and 2-megapixels in the front compared to 5MP and 1.3MP), and there is now a microSD card slot. Otherwise, the device has the same Snapdragon 400, 1GB of RAM, swappable shells, and software offerings.+ View Specs
8.5Motorola Moto G (2014)
Samsung GALAXY Note 10.1 (2014 Edition)Compare8.5 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) is a powerful 10-inch tablet with a high-resolution display. The display features a 2560 x 1600-pixel resolution, and under the hood there is an octa-core Samsung chip clocked at 1.9GHz for the 3G/Wi-Fi version or Snapdragon 800 for the LTE variant, and an impressive 3GB of RAM. The Note 10.1 2014 features an 8-megapixel main and a 2-megapixel front cameras. It will arrive in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB models.+ View Specs
8.5Samsung GALAXY Note 10.1 (2014 Edition)
Samsung Galaxy E5CompareThe Samsung Galaxy E5 features a 5-inch Super AMOLED 720p screen, a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 410 processor, 1.5GB of RAM, a 8-megapixel main camera, 5-megapixel front-facing cam, 16GB of expandable internal storage space, and a 2,400mAh battery. The operating system is Android KitKat topped off with the latest Samsung TouchWiz UI.+ View Specs
Samsung Galaxy E5
OnePlus 2Compare5.8 reviewThe OnePlus 2 is an incremental step in terms of overall design language. The frame is a magnesium and aluminum alloy, which should keep weight in check, and provide a high-quality feel to the physical build of the device. On its left side is a new hardware feature called the "alert slider." It's a 3-stop sliding button allowing for quick switching between sound and notification profiles, making it easy to silence your phone in a hurry. The OnePlus 2 is a dual-SIM device, and it features a USB Type-C plug. The larger male USB plug is also reversible, and is patented by OnePlus. Switching out back plates is easier now with "StyleSwap" covers. OnePlus will have four new StyleSwap options available should you not prefer their signature Sandstone cover.+ View Specs
5.8OnePlus 2
Samsung Galaxy S3 NeoCompareThe Galaxy S3 Neo is presented by Samsung as "the most premium dual SIM smartphone". The phone has a quad-core 1.2GHz processor, 1.5GB of RAM, dual band Wi-Fi and supports microSD card up to 64GB. The S3 Neo runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.+ View Specs
Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo
Samsung Galaxy J1CompareThe Samsung Galaxy J1 is an entry-level smartphone with a 4.3-inch WVGA (480 x 800) display, dual SIM capabilities, and Android 4.4 KitKat on board. It's got a 5 MP camera with LED flash on the back, and a 2 MP snapper on the front (this one's helped by a Palm Selfie function that detects movement and lets you take selfies using hand gestures). The new Galaxy offers 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of internal memory, microSD card support, and a 1850 mAh removable battery that should be able to provide a talk time of up to 10 hours. Ultra Power Saving mode is also available.+ View Specs
Samsung Galaxy J1
Huawei Ascend Mate7Compare9 reviewThe Ascend Mate7 sports a 6-inch display with 1,080 x 1,920 pixels, and has very thin bezels. It runs Android KitKat and offers LTE connectivity. A 5MP front-facing camera, 13MP rear camera, 2GB of RAM, and 16GB of internal memory are also available. The handset is powered by an octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 925 SOC.+ View Specs
9Huawei Ascend Mate7
Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3Compare7.5 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 truly deserves its name for its among the largest handsets to ever see the light of day sporting a massive 6.3-inch 720p screen. Providing processing power is a dual-core 1.7GHz processor backed up by 1.5GB of RAM for smooth multitasking performance. With an 8-megapixel camera on its back, the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 should be a decent snapper given the right circumstances, while that 1.9MP front-facing cam will come in handy when you're in the mood for a video chat. There are also 8 or 16 gigs of on-board storage, 3200 mAh battery and LTE connectivity.+ View Specs
7.5Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3
Samsung Galaxy S III miniCompare8.9 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy S III mini is an affordable 4.0-inch handset that comes with the latest of Android, 4.1 Jelly Bean. The interesting thing about the handset is that it has all the unique features that came in the original S III: TouchWiz with the S Voice assistant, SmartStay that shuts off the screen when you're not looking at it and S Beam with tap to share for songs and files as big as 10MB. Hardware-wise, the Samsung Galaxy S III mini is a mid-range device with 4.0-inch Super AMOLED WVGA (480 x 800-pixel) screen, 1GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 5-megapixel rear camera and microSD slot.+ View Specs
8.9Samsung Galaxy S III mini
Microsoft Lumia 640 XLCompare8 reviewThe Microsoft Lumia 640 XL comes with a 5.7-inch display (versus a 5-inch display on the Lumia 640), and it runs on Windows Phone 8.1 with the promise to get upgraded to Windows 10. Its features include a 1.2GHz quad-core procesor, 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, 13-megapixel main camera and a 5-megapixel shooter on the front.+ View Specs
8Microsoft Lumia 640 XL
Samsung Galaxy S5 ActiveCompare9 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy S5 Active has a 5.1-inch screen with resolution of 1080 x 1920. A quad-core 2.5GHz Snapdragon 801 CPU is under the hood along with the Adreno 330 GPU. 2GB of RAM and 16GB of free memory is on board. The back and front facing cameras are 16MP and 2MP respectively. Android 4.4.2 is pre-installed out of the box.+ View Specs
9Samsung Galaxy S5 Active
BlackBerry Z10Compare7 reviewThe Z10 is a fully touchscreen BB10 device sporting modern specs, with cool patterned soft-touch material on the back. The screen is 4.2" LCD with 1280 x 768 pixels, making for a pixel density of 356 pixels per inch. A 1.5 GHz dual-core processor and 2 GB of RAM are the power under the hood, and there are 16 GB of internal storage, as well as the all-important microSD card slot. You will need all the RAM, because BB10 is a true multitasking system, like Android, so everything remains how you left it, or moves on under the hood, but is available at all times.+ View Specs
7BlackBerry Z10
Sony Xperia Z3+Compare7 reviewRight off the bat, the new Sony Xperia Z3+ looks very much like the Sony Xperia Z3, down to the 5.2-inch, 1080 x 1920 resolution screen. Inside, though, Sony has opted to go ahead and power the device with the 64-bit Snapdragon 810 SoC which features an octa-core CPU and the Adreno 430 GPU. 3GB of RAM is inside. The rear camera is the same 20.7MP snapper employed on the Xperia Z3 (still no OIS) but the front camera has been bumped from 2MP to 5MP in order to take better selfies. Sony has trimmed the sails on the battery, choosing to enlist a 2900mAh juicer rather than the 3100mAh cell that powered the Xperia Z3. But the smaller battery allowed Sony to cut the thickness of the phone to a svelte 6.9mm from 7.3mm.+ View Specs
7Sony Xperia Z3+
Microsoft Lumia 550CompareThe Microsoft Lumia 550 features a 4.7-inch LCD display, with resolution of 720 x 1280. The Snapdragon 210 chipset is under the hood, carrying a quad-core 1.1GHz CPU and the Adreno 304 GPU. 1GB of RAM is inside, along with 8GB of expandable internal storage. A 5MP camera is found on back, and a 2MP front-facing shooter handles selfies and video chats. A 2100 mAh juicer provides the power, and Windows 10 Mobile is pre-installed. The phone supports 4G LTE connectivity.+ View Specs
Microsoft Lumia 550
Sony Xperia SCompare8.5 reviewSony Xperia S is packing a 4.3-inch display with 720 by 1280 pixels of resolution and a MSM8260 dual-core chipset clocked at 1.5GHz. 12-megapixel camera with an Exmor R sensor will be present on its back side, a front-facing shooter is present as well. In terms of storage, 32 gigs are at your disposal. Unfortunately, instead of Ice Cream Sandwich, Android 2.3 Gingerbread will come out of the box, but an update is scheduled for the second half of 2012.+ View Specs
8.5Sony Xperia S
Sony Xperia T2 UltraCompare8.8 reviewThe Sony Xperia T2 Ultra has a massive 6-inch Triluminos screen, with a pixel resolution of 720x1280. The thin, 7.6mm phablet is powered by a quad-core, 1.4GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of microSD-expandable (up to 32GB extra) native storage.+ View Specs
8.8Sony Xperia T2 Ultra
Sony Xperia Z5 CompactCompare7 reviewThe Sony Xperia Z5 Compact is a no-compromise compact phone that features the top of the line Snapdragon 810 system chip and the ultra-fast 23-megapixel Exmor RS camera that the Xperia Z5 family has. The Z5 Compact sports a 4.6-inch 720 x 1280 pixel (HD) display and is actually narrower than phones like the iPhone 6, but it's also a fairly bulky phone. We're happy to see that it also packs a fingerprint scanner built in the side positioned lock screen.+ View Specs
7Sony Xperia Z5 Compact
Apple iPhone 4Compare9.5 reviewThe iPhone 4 is now boxier, with the rear side now flat, instead of rounded. It will keep the 3.5-inch display diagonal, but will quadruple the pixels to 640x960, making it the highest-resolution screen on a smartphone to date. Apple actually calls the new screen Retina Display, because it shows 326 pixels per inch, while the human eye can only distinguish around 300 ppi. In addition, the screen will utilize the LCD IPS technology (same as in the iPad). The other new stuff includes a front-facing video call camera, 5MP main camera lens with LED flash and 720p HD video recording, Micro-SIM slot, instead of ordinary SIM, a secondary mic for noise-cancellation and a lot of other new features.+ View Specs
9.5Apple iPhone 4
BlackBerry PrivCompare7.2 reviewThe Priv is BlackBerry's first Android-based smartphone, and is presented as a secure handset. It comes with a new BlackBerry app called DTEK, which reportedly "lets you know when your privacy could be at risk so you can take action to improve it," while at the same time offering access to the Android ecosystem. The Priv has a sliding QWERTY keyboard (a rarity these days), in addition to a 5.4-inch dual-curve Quad HD (1440 x 2560 pixel) display. Other features include LTE connectivity, a six-core Snapdragon 808 processor, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of expandable internal memory, and a 3410 mAh battery. An 18 MP rear camera (with OIS and 4K video recording) and a 2 MP front-facing camera complete the specs list.+ View Specs
7.2BlackBerry Priv
Sony Xperia Z UltraCompare8.7 reviewThe Japanese have not only made the thinnest 6.5mm watertight phone with the largest 6.44" screen and fastest 2.2 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor with the Xperia Z Ultra at launch, but it also wanted to diversify its phablet functionalities beyond what is possible with Samsung's Note family, for instance. As such, they have employed a technology that allows you to write on the screen with any regular pen or pencil whose tip is more than 1mm in diameter, besides gracing it with stylus input functionality.+ View Specs
8.7Sony Xperia Z Ultra
LG G FlexCompare8.5 reviewThe LG G Flex is a smartphone curved to follow the contour of the face. It also features the rear key first introduced in the LG G2, as well as a "Self Healing" coating on the back cover. On the specs side it includes a 6'' curved P-OLED display with 720 x 1280 px resolution, 2.26 GHz quad core Snapdragon 800 processor, 2 gigs of RAM, 32 GB storage space, 13 MP rear camera and 2.1 MP front one, all that run by Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2.+ View Specs
8.5LG G Flex
Motorola Moto X Pure Edition (2015)Compare9.1 reviewThe Moto X Pure Edition comes with a 5.7-inch LCD display, protected by Gorilla Glass 3. A resolution of 1440 x 2560 gives the screen a pixel density of 520ppi. Under the hood is a Snapdragon 808 SoC, which includes a hexa-core 1.8 GHz CPU and the Adreno 418 GPU. 3GB of RAM is inside with 16GB/32GB/64GB of internal storage. Those requiring additional memory can use the 128GB capacity microSD slot on board. Motorola says that the 21MP rear-facing camera on the Moto X Pure Edition is the best camera that it has ever produced. Both the back and front-facing shooters feature an aperture of f/2.0, and the camera on front is equipped with a wide angle lens. The phone supports 4G LTE (Cat.6, 300Mbps) connectivity, and is covered with a nanocoating that protects the phone from accidental spills and light rain.+ View Specs

Huawei Mate SCompare6.5 reviewHuawei Mate S features a 5.5-inch, 1080p screen with the fresh Force Touch technology in select markets. The Kirin 935 chipset is under the hood, with an octa-core CPU and the Mali-T628 MP4 GPU. 3GB of RAM is inside, along with 128GB of native storage. A 13 MP camera in the back with OIS and dual LED flash, an 8 MP selfie shooter with front LED flash, and a much improved fingerprint reader round up the pretty offering.+ View Specs

Samsung Galaxy YCompare7 reviewSamsung Galaxy Y is targeted to the younger crowd. It sports a 3" 240x320 pixels LCD display, 832MHz CPU, 2MP camera, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, Bluetooth 3.0 plus Wi-Fi, and a meager 1200mAh battery.+ View Specs
7Samsung Galaxy Y
Microsoft Lumia 535Compare7 reviewThe Microsoft Lumia 535 doesn't offer high-end specs, but it's certainly a step up from the slightly older Lumia 530. Powered by a quad-core 1.2 GHz Snapdragon 200 processor, the phone features a 5-inch IPS display with 540 x 960 pixels, HSDPA, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of expandable internal memory, and a 1905 mAh battery. On the back, the Lumia 535 has a 5 MP camera with LED flash, while its front-facing shooter is the same 5 MP one that we can find on the selfie-centric Lumia 730 / 735.+ View Specs
7Microsoft Lumia 535
Samsung Galaxy S DuosCompare7.7 reviewThe Galaxy S Duos looks just like the Samsung Galaxy S III, but - of course - it has far less capable internal parts. For starters, the screen will be smaller, at 4 inches rather than 4.8" and with a resolution of 480x800 pixels. The phone will luckily run on Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. It will have 512MB of RAM and 4 gigs of internal storage.+ View Specs

HTC Desire EYECompare8 reviewThe HTC Desire EYE marks the company's foray into "selfie-centric" smartphones. The two-color unibody device sports a 5.2-inch 1080p display with a pixel density of 423ppi. As a whole, it's a pretty power-laden device, as it totes a pretty large dual LED-enabled 13MP front-facing camera with an f/2.2 sensor aperture and a wide 22mm lens. Under the hood one can find a quad-core Snapdragon 801 humming at 2.3GHz, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of on-board storage, microSD card slot, 2,400mAh Li-Polymer battery, and another 13MP camera at the back. It's running Android 4.4.2 KitKat out of the box with HTC's Sense 6 atop.+ View Specs

Samsung Galaxy CoreCompare8 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy Core will be a low- to mid-range model with a 4.3" WVGA display, 1.2GHz dual-core processor (possibly a MediaTek or something like that), 5MP camera and Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. One of its more interesting features is that it will come in a Dual SIM variant, where the two SIM card slots will be able to remain active simultaneously. The Galaxy Core will come with the lovely TouchWiz Nature user interface and all of its useful features like Smart Stay, S Voice and Smart Alert, with the last one alerting you to missed calls and messages once you pick the phone up.+ View Specs
8Samsung Galaxy Core
Lenovo Vibe X3CompareThe Lenovo Vibe X3 arrives with a 5.5" 1080p display, Snapdragon 808 or octa-core MediaTek (for the 16 GB version) processors with SensorHub co-processing unit, 2 or 3 GB of RAM and 16/32/64 GB of internal memory storage, plus a microSD slot. The multimedia capabilities will be further enhanced by a hearty 13 MP/21 MP Sony shooter on the back with phase-detection AF, depending on the version, dual LED, dual-tone flash, as well as a 5 MP or 8 MP front-facing cameras. Lenovo usually does well with the battery capacity in its phones, and the Vibe X3 doesn't disappoint, housing a 3600/3400 mAh juicer in a 154 x 76.5 x 9.3 mm or 153 x 75.9 x 8.7mm (for the basic 16 GB version) metallic chassis.+ View Specs
Lenovo Vibe X3
Samsung Galaxy S4 ActiveCompare8.5 reviewWith the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active we get a 5" 1080x1920 pixels Full HD LCD display in a 9mm thin phone, a quad-core 1.9 GHz processor, 2 GB of RAM, an 8 MP camera on the back, LTE/HSPA+ radio, infrared beamer, 16 GB of internal memory plus a microSD slot, a decent 2600 mAh battery, and Android 4.2.2 to run it all, with all the goodies of the latest TouchWiz Nature UX. The outdoorsy features don't stop with the IP67 certification, making the phone dust- and water-proof up to three feet deep for up to 30 minutes. Samsung has thrown in the "Glove Touch" mode, which lets you operate the display with mittens on, and the "Aqua Mode" in the camera app interface, which helps make better underwater pictures and video. Long-press the volume key up, and the powerful LED light becomes a torch, and that same volume rocker down can be used as a camera shutter key directly from locked mode.+ View Specs

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 NeoCompare8.5 reviewThe Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo, a slim-sized Note 3, is a 5.5-inch phablet, distinguished by its S-Pen stylus and hexa-core Exynos prcoessor. The Note 3 Neo runs a customized version (TouchWiz) of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, and comes with an 8-megapixel camera, 2GB of RAM, and a large 3100mAh battery.+ View Specs
8.5Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo
Asus ZenFone 5CompareThe Asus ZenFone 5 is a phone powered by a 2GHz Intel Atom chip along with 2GB of RAM. Its 5-inch IPS display has a resolution of 1280 by 720 pixels and can be operated while the user is wearing gloves. The phone's main camera can snap photos at 8MP and the PixelMaster tech is present. There are several colors to pick from – Charcoal Black, Pearl White, Cherry Red, and Champagne Gold.+ View Specs
Asus ZenFone 5
Motorola DROID UltraCompare8.7 reviewThe Motorola Droid Ultra comes with a 5-inch HD display. The device is both thinner and more durable than earlier devices thanks to a new unibody kevlar construction. Thickness comes at the slim 7.18mm making this the thinnest 4G LTE phone out there. A brand new dual-core X8 Mobile Computing system is powering the device allowing exciting new features like 'Touchless control' that has your phone listening to you at all times, something we saw on the Moto X leaks. There's also the 'active display' technology that only lights up a part of the screen to conserve battery. Technically, a dual-core processor is what's under the hood, don't get fooled by the '8-core' talk in the event. The Droid Ultra features an f/2.4 10-megapixel camera and chances are this is the same unit we'll see on the Motorola Moto X.+ View Specs
8.7Motorola DROID Ultra
Sony Xperia M2Compare5 reviewThe Sony Xperia M2 has grown considerably, and its display now measures in at 4.8-inches. In comparison, the amount of pixels went through only a minor update - a 540x960 qHD resolution. The processor, now a respectable 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400, has also seen an upgrade, and allows the Xperia M2 to hook up to a 4G LTE network. While on the topic of connectivity, its worth pointing out that the M2 will also come in a dual SIM version. The rest of the hardware highlights include an 8-megapixel camera, with Sony's proven Exmor RS sensor, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage, and a fairly large, 2300mAh battery. The M2 will come in the three signature Xperia colors: black, white and purple, and will see a global launch starting April 2014.+ View Specs
5Sony Xperia M2
Motorola Moto ECompare9 reviewThe Moto E continues on the design legacy of the Moto X and Moto G, with a similar slightly chubby, curvy form with a dimple on the back. The handset comes with a 4.3-inch display with a resolution of 540 x 960 pixels (qHD). This might sound low on paper, but on this small screen, it works out to the very sharp pixel density of 256ppi. Best of all, the Moto E runs on the latest Android 4.4 KitKat. The little new Moto features a Snapdragon 200 system chip with 1.2GHz dual-core Cortex A7-based processor and an Adreno 302 GPU. There's 1GB of RAM, and a scarce 4GB of internal storage (only 2.2GB available to end users!) that you can, luckily, expand via microSD cards. It's also got a 5-megapixel camera (no flash in sight) capable of recording videos with 480 x 854-pixel resolution at 30 frames per second.+ View Specs
9Motorola Moto E
Samsung Galaxy TabPro SComparePowered by a 6th generation, dual-core Intel Core M processor clocked at 2.2GHz, the Samsung Galaxy TabPro S can offer full PC functionality, thanks to Windows 10 and all its features - including Microsoft Office, OneDrive, Cortana, and the new Microsoft Edge browser. The Galaxy TabPro S comes with plenty of RAM (4 GB), and includes a 5,200 mAh battery that can last up to 10.5 hours, and can be fully charged in 2.5 hours. The tablet also has two 5 MP cameras: one on the rear, and one on the front.+ View Specs

Scotty Bowman figured he'd have Chris Chelios with the Detroit Red Wings for a brief time.
Acquired less than two years after Vladimir Konstantinov's horrific and career-ending accident, Chelios filled a void at defenseman and would give the Wings' young blue liners a little more time to develop.
A decade later…
"It's hard to fathom," said the Blackhawks' senior advisor. "We were thinking he'd play a year or two until some of our younger defenseman made the NHL. He played nine years. If we'd have known."
What surprises many is how long Chelios played, logging 26 seasons and retiring at age 48. What surprises no one is that Chelios is a first-ballot inductee into the Hockey Hall of Fame, which will have its ceremony tonight in Toronto. For those who played with, coached or watched the Chelios, the Chicago-born defenseman epitomized toughness, longevity and determination.
"Talk about a great story," Blackhawks historian Bob Verdi said. "He's cut from every team (when he was young), told he wasn't good enough, that he was too small and he didn't play defense in the beginning. Then he turns out to be the ultimate warrior."
[From YAHOO: How Chris Chelios' Hall of Fame career almost never happened]
For fellow Chicago native Eddie Olczyk, his former teammate and longtime friend's induction is well deserved.
"It's the pinnacle of any individual award you can get for a player. He just was able to be the best for long stretches at every level he played at, and that's the most important thing," Olczyk said. "It didn't matter what the game was, the competitive nature. He was a great player for a long period of time. I couldn't be happier for him and his family."
It's easy to point to Chelios' well-documented fitness regimen as why he played so long. As Olczyk said, Chelios was "a unique freak when it came to conditioning. He could have a long shift, then come right back out and be just as good as he was before." But it's more than that. Chelios started his career as a more offensive defenseman and ended it as a shutdown one. And no matter his style, Chelios was always pitted against the opponents' best.
Chelios' ability to adapt, adjust and still thrive was evident.
"If you wanted him to play a skilled, elite and fast offensive game, he could do that. If you wanted him to play a nasty game, he'd be right in the middle of it," Olczyk said. "But as he got older he understood his role. His ability to play any way for as long as he did separates him from everyone else."
Being a three-time Norris Trophy winner validates that.
"He was in contention all the time, and with the defensemen that started in his era, the competition was pretty stiff," Bowman said. "Denis Potvin was still playing, Ray Bourque, then along comes Al MacInnis, Nicklas Lidstrom and Scott Niedermayer. These are (current and future) hall-of-fame defensemen, and he was in an era with seven or eight that you could say, 'Which one wins the Norris?'"
[MORE: A look at 2013 Hall of Fame class]
Chelios' love of the game was undeniable.
"Normal hockey players look forward to time away from the rink in the summer, whether you're going to the lake or playing golf or whatever," Verdi said. "I don't think Cheli ever felt more at home than when he was on the ice."
Verdi guesses that, despite retirement, Chelios will always find a reason to get back on the ice.
"He's not skating now, only because he's being indicted in to the Hall of Fame," he said. "But he'll probably skate somewhere Tuesday when it's done."

The iPhone has its App Store. Linux has its application repositories. Gamers have their Steam. So why, then, does the open-source world not have a centralized database for standardizing application deployment on PCs?
I can see your answer now? "That's crazy!" Elaborating, you'd probably suggest that half of the joy of open source comes from the individual development that people (or groups of people) pour into a piece of software. In short, you probably think they should be free to distribute it as they see fit: via SourceForge, on their Web sites, burned onto a disc and cast into the sea, whatever.
But think about it--just think about it--for a moment. A single, downloadable application that could grant you access to a SourceForge-like list of open source applications grouped by categories, themes, alphabet letters-anything you want! It sounds like a far-off dream, perhaps the whimsical musings of a columnist looking to write something for the week. But I'm not the only one who considers a single-front application "store" for the open-source world as a real, future possibility. No, I've got Novell on my side too.
An open-source "store," and I use that term loosely to keep out the incorrect assumption that applications would come with a price tag attached, would solve a number of problems that hold back more widespread open-source adoption. For starters, there's the name recognition. Go up to a group of average PC users and ask them what their favorite open-source applications are. Odds are good they will have no answer for you. And if they do, they'll probably say Linux by virtue of it being the only open-source software they're familiar with. Maybe Firefox. Even for a grizzled OSS-finding veteran like myself, it's not always easy to get tabs on the latest and greatest projects on the Web.
By combining the information for a wide swath of open-source projects into a single, downloadable application, the program could eliminate the barriers surrounding the discovery process for these apps. Instead of a user being forced to pore over blogs to find new and interesting programs (this one included), the application could categorize all included open-source programs by theme. Want to check out all the applications that have been submitted to the tool's database in the last seven days? Done. Want to filter these down to applications that run on Windows Vista and relate to audio editing in some capacity? Search via filter. Done. Want to queue up some apps to download in a wish list-like fashion once your big Linux distro is done? Click the star icon by each App you want to keep your eye on for later. Pardon the cliché, but the possibilities are endless.
Instead of staring at a screen of binaries and snippets of documentation, users could view a brief summary of what each application does, as well as its system requirements and a screenshot or two. Integrated community features would not only allow users to submit bug and help requests a la SourceForge, but would give users a chance to add comments and rate the application. Registered users, validated developers, or important community members could chime in to lend these notes and reviews a voice of authenticity over the general internet mutterings, and good users-like Yelp commenters-could be voted into authority based on their behavior.
But don't think that everything in the open source "store" would be as pretty and one-button-installey as Apple's application store. I'm also envisioning a future where sysadmins, hardcore users, or even the open-source curious could create predefined installation packages for sets of open-source applications. They could use the advanced features of the "store" application to download and deploy this package to individual or networked PCs, ensuring not only a trusted series of applications for a clean-slate PC, but also removing the annoyance of having to manually install one program after the other. These packages could be selected by application, but it would be the program itself that decides which binary or executable gets passed along to the PC depending on the operating system being used. An application store-type concept would also allow users to keep these applications continually updated--an important note, given just how much a typical open-source program can change in any given time.
These are just a few thoughts. How far off am I from Novell's dream? It's unclear. They seem to be in brainstorming (if not daydreaming) mode just as much as me.
"There's a core experience, but then the ability to customize that experience," said Holger Dyroff, vice president of business development at Novell in an interview with PC Pro . "On the user end, all they'll see is an open-source applications store with one-click downloads of new software. Unlike the other stores though, they won't have to pay for any of those applications, which will be very attractive."
Well, at the very least, it's the start of an idea. And if you still think it's loony, I'd like to note that a number of the features I listed above already exist in some fashion on the Web . In fact, some are even open-source programs themselves. We have the database. We have the applications. It's time for someone to make like a Bruticus and combine these elements into a single, easy-to-use, download platform for open source.
Stay informed about all the latest open-source application downloading tools (and awesome programs) by following me on Twitter @acererak !

Businesses primarily concerned with the financial and physical benefits of solar can opt to build an on-site solar generation asset at their facility with an external solar provider. With this approach, a solar provider like Constellation handles all costs and tasks associated with building, owning, operating and maintaining the solar arrays.
At Constellation, we provide customers with a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) or Solar Services Agreement that features the known price/kWh for power (e.g., standard electricity) over the term of the contract, typically 20 years.
Business customers avoid a large capital expense and receive budget certainty with a proven cost-management strategy. Plus, Constellation secures rebates for customers from state agencies and utilities as well as federal and state tax incentives if available.
Our customers also benefit from industry-certified measurement and reporting systems that provide documentation of cost savings and solar energy production.
Solar photovoltaic power is generated by transforming sunlight that hits solar panels into electricity as direct current (DC). An inverter turns that DC into alternating current (AC).
Businesses use the generated power and push back to the grid any excess supply.
For every MWh produced, the system generates an environmental attribute which may have separate value depending on the market (sometimes called a Solar Renewable Energy Certificate or SREC).

Frank Peretti talks about
The Veritas Project: Nightmare Academy
Q.     Describe The Veritas Project: Nightmare Academy in 100 words or less.
Nightmare Academy is the second book in The Veritas Project Series. The theme deals specifically with the existence of truth – a challenge against the post-modern idea that there is no absolute truth and that truth is relative. Without giving away the story, I'll say that Nightmare Academy deals with a secret experiment in which runaways are plucked right off the street, bused to a hidden academy in the woods, and placed in an environment where truth doesn't exist. The purpose is to find out if you can erase truth from a person's mind.
Q.     What was the most interesting or challenging part to write?
The hardest part of writing Nightmare Academy is melting down such a complex issue into simple story terms. The notes I wrote in brainstorming about this book take up more pages than the book itself! There are so many issues, angles, and topics to examine about right and wrong, the basis of truth, and the foundation we build our morals on. Handling all those subject matters can become very complex. Reducing it to a workable story is the challenge.
Q.     Why did you write The Veritas Project and specifically Nightmare Academy?
The underlying purpose of The Veritas Project series is to equip young people to discern truth and confront the popular notion of relativism – post-modernism, if you will. I'm trying to fight current thinking that there are no absolutes - believe whatever you want. I want to teach kids to think for themselves and not believe everything they are told. Important worldviews are woven throughout the story to encourage this on ideas such as absolute truth, relativism, fallacy of evolution, etc.
It's very evident that when mankind supercedes truth, mankind's darker side prevails. The result can be chaos, preying upon the weak, and eventual tyranny. When there is no truth, tyrants will rule. I want to get kids thinking about these issues.
Q.     Is there a message for teens in Nightmare Academy?
The message for teens is that there is such a thing as absolute truth and it can be known. Don't let anyone tell you differently. Relativism is destroying our culture and our families. Kids are being robbed of their very souls. Kids are destroying each other because they have no absolutes. Our society is basically "anything goes", it's an issue of who has the most power, not who is right. Don't think with your feelings or hear with your eyes. Don't believe everything you're told because it feels good, has an impressive image, or looks good on television. You must learn to think and challenge these issues and make sure what you are being told really corresponds with reality.
Q.     Will there be another book in The Veritas Project series?
I certainly hope so! We'll wait and see if readers want more books in the series.

No, bathing too much is so bad for them. Espically everyday.
Horses have special oils in their coat that they need, and if you bath them too much, they will get rubbed out. Not good!
I've heard some people saying that 1x week is okay, yet some others 2x/year is the max!
I stick with 1 time a month in the hotter months.

Happy Birthday Prince George! The Duke and Dutchess of Cambridge introduced their first born to the world one year ago today. This time last year, journalists from around the world were camped outside Saint Mary's hospital in London waiting for the prince's birth. William and Kate will celebrate George's first birthday with family and friends at Kensington Palace and are expected to have a party. George is third in line to the British throne.

Google has a plan to make your pages load faster. The search giant has developed a new kind of image format that promises to shrink the size of web photos and graphic files down by about 35 percent, which should boost load times for websites. Facebook, Netflix, EBay and several other websites have begun supporting the new format. So if your pages load a bit faster in the near future, you might have Google to thank.
Number 3
A Michigan sheriff says orange is no longer the new black in his jail because he thinks the Netflix prison drama "Orange is the New Black" glorifies life behind bars. The sheriff is swapping the orange jail jumpsuits for black and white stripes, saying he doesn't want the T.V. show to "bleed over into real life." He also says the new jumpsuits will make it easier to spot when prisoners out on work detail.
Number 2
It's been four days since Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 crashed over eastern Ukraine, and pro-Russia rebels are finally beginning to hand over key items from the crash to investigators. Refrigerated rail cars, packed with bodies from the crash, were taken away Monday. 282 victims have been discovered so far, and a team of dutch forensic experts will have to identify each individual. No one knows when the bodies will be returned to the families.
Number 1
The White House says President Obama will meet with leaders from three central american countries this week to discuss the ongoing immigration crisis. Obama will hold talks with the presidents of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. About 60,000 mostly unaccompanied children from Central America have crossed the U.S. border since the beginning of the year, and the administration has been grappling with how to deal with the influx.

Q: Weddings For Dogs?
What is your opinion? as for me I think it is a cute idea but why not just let your dogs be together as long as they are spayed and neutered they will be happy just to be with each other. So what do you think?
Apr 12, 2010
I think weddings are silly for dogs. If people want to do it and have fun, and the dogs put up with it, that's fine. All of mine run together anyway. Besides, dogs are not monogamous.
Thumbs Up: 1 | Thumbs up!
Apr 12, 2010
Before any marriages could take place, there would have to be canine priests/pastors, etc. Until there are canine clergy members who support the concept of weddings for dogs and are willing to perform the ceremony, there should be no dog weddings!!!!! (Stated differently, if/when dogs themselves come up with the proposal, then "man" can listen and be "best man" at the doggies' wedding!!!!!)
Thumbs Up: 1 | Thumbs up!
Apr 12, 2010
ches i think it is for the people. i really think animals feel silly dressed in clothes. if they were ment to wear clothes they wouldn't be born with fur

< Seattle Seahawks
Reports: Travis Jones is Seahawks' new D-line coach
By Brady Henderson
The Seahawks will hire Saints assistant Travis Jones to be their defensive line coach, according to reports.
ESPN's Adam Schefter and Jason La Canfora of CBSSports.com report that Jones, an assistant defensive-line coach for the Saints, has agreed to be the Seahawks' head defensive line coach.
Jones replaces Todd Wash, who followed close friend Gus Bradley to Jacksonville when Bradley, the former Seahawks' defensive coordinator, was hired as the Jaguars' new head coach.
According to his bio on the Saints' website, Jones has been a member of the team's coaching staff since 2008. He previously spent three seasons with the Dolphins.

Damage control for sneaky car rental fees
March 11 (Reuters) – A few weeks after Melanie Mendez and
her husband returned home to Massachusetts from South Florida in
January they received a bill from a rental car company for $555.
The reason? Damage to the 2012 Hyundai Sonata GLS they had
Mendez, 41, says the damage was there when she got the car,
but a diagram made at the time of the rental noted it on the
wrong side of the vehicle. While she normally pays more
attention, this slip got away from her. And once it was done,
there was no convincing the rental agency that it was
pre-existing damage. She had to turn to the Better Business
Bureau, which eventually got the charge dropped.

If you can remember owning just about any electronic device purchased in the U.S. between 1998 and 2002, you could be due some cash from a class-action lawsuit with a $310 million settlement fund. You don't need a receipt.

Available only as part of the Barbra Streisand Collection. One of the most popular movie musicals ever made, Funny Girl follows the early career of stage comedienne Fanny Brice - a role that earned Barbra Streisand the 1968 Oscar for Best Actress. As the film opens, only her mother believes Fanny can make it in show business. When she gets her first break at Keeney's Music Hall, her hilarious debut as a roller-skating chorus girl gets her hired as a comedienne. A year later Fanny is working for Florenz Ziegfeld in his famous Follies and brings the house down with an outrageous and unplanned number. Fanny becomes a star, falls in love and marries Nick Arnstein (Omar Sharif), a handsome gambler whose luck doesn't hold up. The film's many memorable songs include "Don't Rain On My Parade" and the Streisand classic "People." Contains the ever popular four and a half minute overture at the beginning of the film, during which there is only a blank screen.

Originally posted on Rockies Review | Last updated 8/4/12
Don't expect Fans of the Colorado Rockies were angry and upset when the team announced a crazy new theory.The club announced that they would be going with a four-man rotation where the starting pitcher was done after 75-pitches, and another "starting" pitcher would come in afterwards and throw up to 50 pitches. The theory made nearly everyone shake their heads and made the Rockies the butt of many jokes from around the league.The complaint was that the decision made no sense. The decision was made in an effort to get the starters to throw strikes and become more efficient. However, the critics questioned what it would do to the bullpen. Even with the lack of success from the starters before the implementation, the fact is, every now and then, the bullpen got a few days off here and there, or at least a couple of games now and then that would make the burden a little lighter.Throughout the implementation, the starting pitching, with the exception of Jeff Francis, hasn't pitched bette...

You may feel lonely and frustrated when it seems like your husband's job takes priority over your marriage, family, and children. If your husband's career goals seem more important than your marriage, check out these tips – they're inspired by a reader's comment.
One of the best books I've read on marriage communication is The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work: A Practical Guide from the Country's Foremost Relationship Expert.
"I am 27 and have been with my husband for 9 years, married for 3," says A. on 7 Signs Your Marriage is Over. "We both work for the same organization.. We earn fairly well and have recently bought a beautiful house on a joint loan. It's been a great time together. But for the last six months, I don't feel loved or understood any more."
She shares more below – but right off the bat, it sounds like communication is a stumbling block in their marriage. He's not communicating how important she is to him; she's not hearing how much he loves her.
And, here are a few tips for when your relationship seems to come second to your partner's goals…
When Work Takes Priority Over Your Marriage
Here's the rest of A's story: "Around 6 months back my husband got an offer to work abroad for a year in another country 6,000 kilometres away! I didn't have the option to leave my job to be with him, as I had started working after my Masters degree. I didn't want him to take up the offer as I couldn't imagine a life apart from each other. Also, our current salaries leave us with a sufficient surplus every month.. But, he decided to take the job to meet his financial goals."
She's having a hard time making the transition from being together all the time to not seeing him for the next year. "It's been more than a month since he left, but I still wake up crying and miserable," she says. "I know I have to cope with the cards that have been dealt me, but sometimes the pain is unbearable."
His financial and career goals seem more important to him than his own wife. "I sometimes wonder if all love is lost," says A. "How could he make the decision to leave me and go away for a whole year? He calls regularly, he says he misses me, but I am not able to accept it at face value. Please help me. I need guidance on how to make my marriage work."

Understand your husband's "Love Language"
In The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts, Gary Chapman describes how different people give and receive love. I summarize it in Examples of the Five Love Languages – Different Ways to Love.
A's husband's decision to take the job far away – and his desire to achieve his financial goals – may be because he loves her so much, not because she and his marriage aren't important to him. It's possible that his love language is security and material possessions ("Acts of Service").
Perhaps he's more focused on his long-term goal of financial security – that's what he's working towards. He feels his marriage is loving and secure, so he's confident enough to leave for a year.
How do you deal with feelings of loneliness and insecurity?
My neighbors have been married for 23 years; the husband just left for a two year work stint in Thailand. His partner is fine with it, and plans to visit every couple of months. I guess when you've been together for two decades, two years seems like nothing!
I'm married to a geologist, and most of his colleagues leave the country for work reasons. Sometimes they go for weeks; other times they leave for years. Sometimes their wives and families follow; other times, the loved ones stay home. My husband only leaves for six to eight weeks every summer — I'm one of the lucky ones.
So, though I'd hate to live apart from my husband for a year, I know his leaving isn't a sign that he doesn't understand or care for me. Sometimes men are more achievement and work-oriented than their wives, who are more relationship-oriented.
I can't tell A. how to make her marriage work. I'm not a marriage counselor. But, I can offer a few tips for when a husband's work goals seem more important than marriage.
Remember that people make decisions for specific reasons
Since I don't know the whole story – and A's husband isn't sharing his perspective – I have no idea if he really is putting his work ahead of their relationship. I don't know why he accepted a job thousands of miles away without considering how it would affect his wife and their marriage.
But, I do know that every story has two sides. Every marriage has two perspectives. And, I believe that if they had a good marriage before he decided to leave, then he left to work in another country for a reason he believed to be good.
Maybe it wasn't the best decision for their marriage…and maybe it won't be the best decision for his career or financial goals. Maybe it'll turn out to be the worst decision he ever made. But, I think A. has to have faith that though it feels she and their marriage is less important than his career, he thought he was doing the right thing at the time.
Find ways to be heard in your marriage
I also don't know if A's husband is hearing how lonely, rejected, isolated, and disrespected she feels. Does he feel bad that he decided to leave for a year? Does he regret it, or how he handled it?
One of the best ways to reconnect with your spouse is to really hear and accept his perspective – and hope that he really hears and accepts yours! If you're not being heard, read When You Feel Alone in Your Marriage – Emotional Disconnection.
When you're separated by work (such as in military marriages), you could…
Build an interesting, fulfilling, fun life! I know life is dreary without your husband – especially if you don't feel important to him – but the absolute best thing you could do is create an exciting life for yourself. Not only will this make your time apart fly by, it'll keep you happy and busy. The happier and busier you are, the more attractive you'll be to your husband.
Also – if you're not happy or emotionally healthy, get counseling. Find a support group. Do whatever you can to become a strong, healthy, happy, vibrant, attractive woman. Do it for yourself first, and for your husband second. The more attractive you are to your hubby, the more he'll yearn to be reunited with you…and the less likely he'll do this again.
