This type of phones tend to be bulky for the camera lens right.

Samsung Galaxy Zoom huh... Let me predict what's coming next. One will be released every 2 weeks.
- Samsung Galaxy Zoom Active (waterproof/dustproof/rugged)
- Samsung Galaxy Zoom Mini
- Samsung Galaxy Aperture
- Samsung Galaxy Aperture Active
- Samsung Galaxy Aperture Mini
- Samsung Galaxy Macro
- Samsung Galaxy Macro Active
- Samsung Galaxy Macro Mini
- Samsung Galaxy ISO
- Samsung Galaxy ISO Active
- Samsung Galaxy ISO Mini
- Samsung Galaxy EV
- Samsung Galaxy EV Active
- Samsung Galaxy EV Mini
- Samsung Galaxy CMOS
- Samsung Galaxy CMOS Active
- Samsung Galaxy CMOS Mini
- Samsung Galaxy Boss Mode
- Samsung Galaxy God Mode
Guess what, probably none of the above could beat Nokia's 808/EOS and Sony Honami.

And if this would be the case how is this bad? Samsung are giving more and more choice which is only good for consumers...
66. GJanee (Posts: 214; Member since: 29 Jun 2011)
if certain companies start to spam your e-mail address with almost the same offerings every week, do you still consider it as good for you as consumer, and would you still feel like having more choice?
69. WHoyton1 (Posts: 1635; Member since: 21 Feb 2013)
Since when did Samsung start spamming your email with new phones... Electronic products are a different thing from say your average supermarket... More choice means better range of phones... Better android... Stop dissing sammy

hey dude.. do you ever think those phone will available in every country in this world??? NO!! samsung releasing different product for different country/market.. just like they always release the dual sim card galaxy family mostly in asia but not in europe or US.. you don't have to care what phone samsung will offer.. because it may not come to your country..

What's funny is, like some users pointed out, the GSIII had almost no problem beating up the Lumia 920 in most cases.
78. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
we get it, your a samsung bumboy and if your not getting paid then your truly wasting your time
s3 beating up the 920 is how you put it well if suddenly these phones can beat each other up then the 920 will snap the s3 in half
as for which is best its all down to preference, what the person needs or wants etc so hush fanboy
80. maccess (Posts: 742; Member since: 16 Jan 2013)
hey dude.. so do you thing "real photographer" will prefer the unrealistic and oversaturated picture from your lumia 920?? sorry i have to say as an "amateur" photographer i still prefer the much realistic colour reproduction picture taken by the s3.. even though the lumia has sharper image than the s3 but the stupidy unrealistic , oversaturated and overly warm image doesn't suite me..
83. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
lmao you just proven you know nothing and even i who take pics for a hobby can set you straight
fiirst off this
''i still prefer the much realistic colour reproduction picture taken by the s3''
you do know the s3 has never been known for its natural colours, thats where nokia have always been better. the s3 adds loads of post processing saturatin the pictures sharpening them to make them look attractive to the eye to fool those who just see shiny colourful pics....i.e. you
you should take some classes in photography if your going to sit there and say the s3 produces natural colours...........unvelievable how blind your fanboys are cant admit the truth
i will set you straight-the s3 produces saturated pics with post processing like the iphones do to make them more visually appealing. nokia and even sony to an extend produce the more natural colours that some see as dull
didnt you once say you were leaving this site for good? why come back you werent missed
93. maccess (Posts: 742; Member since: 16 Jan 2013)
c'mon boy if you really want to know what natural colour means just take your decent dslr then take a picture.. after that take an s3 and lumia 920 capture the same picture.. you will see wich one has the closer colour reproduction to your dslr.. enough said dude cause i've done it before using my old canon 550d and my s3 and my friend's lm920.. yeah i know most of people still will be WOW by lumia's "exaggerating everything" camera.. but it far from what you called "natural".. lol shame on you.. :D
85. SleepingOz (unregistered)
Oh, here's the butthurt nokia fanboy.
LMAO! Every camera comparison between those two came to the same conclusion. Truth is a bitter pill to swallow. Deal with it! =]
86. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
really has it now samsung paid troll
even though thats bs lets entertain your crap
your saying the s3 beats the 920 in the camera department, even though its more then on par in daylight with it and better at low light......when its comes to video the s3 cant compete
let me guess the s3 also beats the 808 right?
87. SleepingOz (unregistered)
The only good thing about the L920 is OIS.
"your saying the s3 beats the 920 in the camera department, even though its more then on par in daylight with it"
Yeah, keep lying to yourself.
Otherwise the camera comparisons from GSMArena and PA are here, just in case you wanna wake up from your denial. =]
No one is talking about the 808 here. It's GSIII's 8mp camera against L920's 8mp. Fleeing by deviating from the main topic when not being able to cope, as usual! LMAO!
88. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
considering the main topic is possible samsung answers to upcoming nokia and sony devices and you praising your beloved s3...you went way off from the start bumboy
its so funny you get paid well ? you shouldnt for your crap im sure samsung can do better in there trolls.
and your not wanting to talk about the 808 as you would have to admit your s3 wouldnt stand a chance.
you must be one of those arrogant little pricks that talk crap and think they can talk down to people. i will wait for you to get your fanboy help i remember you need a good 3-4 others to help you and make you feel good
ohh and dont spend all your sammy money at once
89. SleepingOz (unregistered)
The topic I started with my comment, which was directed to EXkurogane, was about the only fair camera comparison between Nokia and Samsung; the GSIII and the Lumia 920 since both are 8MP 2012 flagships. And that's the main reason why the 808 is excluded from most SMARTphone comparison.
Haha AD HOMINEM, as usual! Spewing BS to deviate from the topic doesn't actually count as valid arguments. You must be really frustrated for not being able to bring a single valid argument, aren't you?
Try again! =]
Suits you well.. haha

hahaha....first of all in camera department no m@@@f@@@r cheap chinese samd@@g stuff can beat nokia . If i have to buy a cam i would rather buy a canon or nikon. Why buy smthng stupid datsnot even a quality product. Lmfao. An idiot will buy such a dud.....even their next generation cant match nokia,s camera. Yup sony has that extra stuff to compete against nokia, but since last few years sony is going down vid camera. Hope to see a cybershot ......grow up samd@@g and stop fooling everyone with this cheap publicity , u cant beat nokia in phonecamra dept and nikon, canon in caera department

adding phone function to the galaxy camera and rebranding it as an S4 sibling. how original and innovative sammy...
srsly, the train with the 808 went away a long time ago, why would they still force such ridiculous ideas? both the eos and the 928 will still be smartphones that fit in the hand, not a canon 550d sized monster... definitely uncalled for.
8. Jason2k13 (Posts: 1214; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
you should become a new editor, you already know what the specs and the looks of the new galaxy S4 zoom.
25. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 3759; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
You ought to recieve a medal for blindness.
98% of the spec profile is listed up there...
And of course, you don't expect a phone to be 8mm slim with an optical zoom lens.
Let's see...
Galaxy S4 zoom...another addition to the ever expanding Galaxy series!
That's 5 S4 variants including this one...boy!

808 blew galaxy camera! Im expecting EOS to do the same....galaxy cameras are big and hefty and when the price is the same as EOS i see no reason to get galaxy!
14. Jason2k13 (Posts: 1214; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
dont make it sound like 808 blew everything away from the galaxy camera that's just fanboy talk. The galaxy is better in some areas such as:
- stronger xenon flash
- bigger field of view
- better zooming
- better night/low light shots
- ability to record videos at 60fps and 120 fps slow motion vids.
- more camera features
- more apps
808 is good for a phone, but i wouldn't say its better in everything.

44. SIGPRO (Posts: 1435; Member since: 03 Oct 2012)
let me start which Galaxy phone has a Xenonm flash....yes none so please!
Oh wait you talk about the galaxy camera..........the 808 is a cameraphone and the galaxy is just a camera so what are you talking about?
Get you facts right.....NOOB!
45. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
your a joke because this is about camera quality and you list more apps as a point
plus the bigger field of view is grasping at straws. the only thing the galaxy camera had was the optical zoom but face it its a bad camera.
its a dedicated camera and was beaten by a phone. no one said the 808 is the best at everything but seeing as this is and agina i say it about camera's you cant try and talk down the leap ahead the 808 is.
the galaxy camera was a joke, samsung thought they could just shove android on it brag make it sub par quality and it would sell
58. SIGPRO (Posts: 1435; Member since: 03 Oct 2012)
Totally agree with you, but some fanboys just don't get the picture, they keep hiding in their cave!

And samoled??
If this is a pure camera centerd phone, Samoled is not prfrble unless the samoled is already perfect.. Well gs4's Samoled has accurate color in movie mode if im not mistaken
24. yudi.nemesis (Posts: 1127; Member since: 14 Mar 2013)
even in movie mode IPS LCD still have more accurate colour than samoled
you can check displaymate comparison table if don't believe me.
38. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
i know that,, i will not argue abt color accuracy bet Samoled and LCD, LCD will win
15. MariaGabriela (Posts: 12; Member since: 30 Apr 2013)
samsung sucks at low light pictures so they will not do well in this area. Nokia and sony and HTC will always be the king in this area
17. Trex95 (Posts: 900; Member since: 03 Mar 2013)
Still can't beat them. I bet that 808 PV still better than 16 MP Camera.
29. boosook (Posts: 1436; Member since: 19 Nov 2012)
Samsung has become a little like Apple: too conservative. The S4 is just an S3 with updated specs and nothing new. Just like Apple is doing with the iPhone.
They're starting to understand now that the S4 is the least innovative of the new Android phones and is starting to feel the pressure from competitors like htc one or xperia Z, which at least tried to propose something original.
It remains to be seen if it's too late, because now they can't change their flagship for an year, so they'll be forced to make new models that will draw potential customers away from the htc one and xperia z (will we also see a water resistant model?), but those models will have to be necessarily mid-range (otherwise S4 users would be p****d off), so it is not guaranteed that they will succeed in contrasting competitors' flagships.
40. Jason2k13 (Posts: 1214; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
name me a phone with air view, hand gestures, eye scrolling, multi-view all packed in 1 phone?
is waterproof a new tech on the XZ?
is htc 4mp camera innovative even though its worst than gs4 or iphone 5 camera in terms of detail and quality?
and why would you call the S4 a bad phone, when it has better battery than the XZ and HTC? Battery life is probably the most important feature in a phone right now.
47. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
that myt be true for d design
but d design has magnfcnt achievements=packing larger screen and battery into a very compact and s3-like-size body
camera-s3 and s2 cameras are 2 of d best out der, and s4 took another level as some/most reviews said that s4 is d best android smartphone camera,,(808 is d best); weakness in lowlight but not much as far as u wont capture in an area w/ very very low light (flash is der), , .. to remove noise, downscale d photo using photoshop
features> many additional features but yahh some are half-baked, gimmicks but for me most of the features are useful, but we shudnt forget what features s4 has from s3 and note2
SuperAmoled> the new Samoled got different praises/good reviews for the large improvement, maybe it took a lot of work for samsung,, (well some/most units have problems)
d Octo-core myt not be perfect for now, but it is very capable
note: im a fan of samsung, but i cancld my gs4 preorder bcoz im afraid of d issues
65. WHoyton1 (Posts: 1635; Member since: 21 Feb 2013)
In terms of software Sammy is the best innovative company out there! Just because you have this blind hatred don't stray from the facts. Sammy just needs better design then they have everything and will destroy any iPhone out there just like they already do...
30. pyradark (Posts: 855; Member since: 10 Jun 2012)
Too bad, optical zoom is not gonna help to produced great quality like 808. Honami is the first step with bigger sensor, hopefully they dont mess with software. Hmmm to nokia, i dont know where to believe about the 920 image quality!!!
48. yudi.nemesis (Posts: 1127; Member since: 14 Mar 2013)
thats right with some accessory you can have optical zoom just like this one.
and until this day i think only Sony can compete with Nokia when it comes to camera,
because Sony make one of the best camera sensor in the world, sony have G Lens high quality lens just like Carl Zeiss, and they also have one of the best image processor.
so the only question is are Sony really serious with Honami or not??? and i just hope Sony will fix the camera software on Xperia Z soon!!! so we can see the real power of Exmor RS sensor
53. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
Sony should b serious w/ d honami coz dat myt replace my 808.. or even my future main smartphone ;)
60. yudi.nemesis (Posts: 1127; Member since: 14 Mar 2013)
don't worry if sony not serious again we still have many other option.

kicking is reviewable dude. how can you not know that? it happens all the time
Hossa kicked it in. Not reviewable.
Call on ice was goal. No reversible evidence.
Unbelievably bad goal.

So that kicked puck when it hits the inside edge of the post would put what type of spin on it? Any curlers or pool players here? Even bowlers would understand when a ball starts to bite. The puck would naturally generate a spin that would spin towards the net. Possibly right about the spot where Eva says Hossa's stick touched it. Also, it's almost 8 minutes into the period, how flat and even is a goal crease at that point of game? The puck could be going in any direction at that point. Goalies sure do a great job of roughing the surface in there, don't they.
So, the puck travels across the goal line to the goal post where we can see that it is still visibly on the line. At this point Conklin reaches his glove back and pulls it forward off of the goal line. And from comparing the videos to the still photo presented, we are to assume that O'Halloran saw the puck behind the goal line from approximately 12 feet away, while being slightly above the goal line, and apparently being able to see through a 2" thick steel goal post, and the solid web part of the net that is in that spot right next to the goal post on every net I've ever seen used in the NHL.
Sounds like someone was a little too anxious to call a goal. I don't see how, from his position, that he could be so emphatic that that was a goal. Maybe Oscar Goldman had a bionic eye put in him too, as well as Steve Austin!!!
I feel that the best thing to do in the future, would be to not make any calls on the ice and go to video review on any close or questionable calls. Toronto has a problem with overturning on ice calls, as we have witnessed on several occasions. So maybe they should have the refs not make a call and take it to review. The ref can state his point to Toronto, They can look at the play and see if they see what the ref thought he saw. And then make a ruling based on several eyes looking at the play in question, make a call, without, making the on ice official look bad. It may slow the game down, it may change the tempo, but making the right call in the first place should be the leagues top priority. Without that, it just continues to look like the bush league that it has become. And it's only getting worse.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 06:31 AM
Anyone with working eye sockets could plainly see it never crossed the line. That shouldn't be hard to overturn IF you're not playing CYA.

1) The puck never actually crossed the goal line
2) It was kicked in with a very distinct kicking motion
One of the worst video replay decisions I have ever seen.

This I can also agree with as a possibility.
Be careful man, people will say you are trolling because you have a different opinion than the majority.
Thanks for that total exaggeration of the facts. Its obvious you don't want to bring this to IM for some reason. Maybe your epeen needs a little growth or something. Just let it go man. People are going to have different opinions than you have. Belittling them is childish. Debate it. As a ref, I thoroughly enjoy this discussion because I am involved in this aspect of the game. Can't handle it? Then don't come in and whine about it.
Very true. I thought he was closer than that. Would be nice to know at what point in the play this picture was taken.
Does it matter much, its very unlikely that Dan was skating away from the play while calling goal. He was unable to see ANYTHING.
And I also find your trolling troublesome, but I am pulling for you guys to make the playoffs, I really am. I hope you beat the Canucks I really do, and then we will put you all out like the garbage you are.

Hossa definitely kicked the puck, which hit the post and rolled across the line to the other post, and was swept back by Legace, possibly without the puck ever crossing the line. He might have tapped it with his stick (thus negating the kicking motion), and Sobotka might have touched it as well.
The problem is that the ref on the ice (Good ole' Dan O'Halloran) signaled goal. Which means the War Room would have needed indisputable evidence of two things to overturn the goal. 1 - That the puck conclusively did not cross the line, and 2 - That neither Hossa, Sobotka, Polak or Legace touched the puck after it was kicked by Hossa but before it crossed the line.
The replays that I've seen suggest that no one touched it, and that the puck did not completely cross the line. But there's a difference between suggesting something and proving it.
This. It's a terrible, terrible goal but people shouldn't confuse stupidity with conspiracy.
Thanks TeeMan!

The puck sits on the goal line but never crosses it. The ref must have insisted to Toronto that he saw the puck cross the line underneath Conklin's glove when he attempted to pull it out. At that point Toronto does not have conclusive video evidence to overturn the goal and must give way to the ref's call on the ice. Hossa's kick of the puck wouldn't matter at that point because Conklin put the puck in the net himself.
I'll bash the ref on this one but not Toronto.
I don't agree with this at all, and I'll explain why. You can see it best in that slow motion video posted earlier in this thread. It couldn't be more clear, that Conk's glove is swooping in from the back and drags his glove outwards. At no point of that video, do you see Conk's glove stopping on top of that puck, dragging it in and back out. It's one solid motion.

What if it was Chicago Vs. Pittsburgh?
Which way would the call go then? hmm...
You raise an interesting question along the lines of 'can god make something so heavy even he can't lift it' thinking. Hmmmm, as they say in England a real poser.

You can clearly see Hossa whiff and the reason the puck has a miniscule chance in trajectory is because it bounced off the post rolling on it's side before Whobbling and leveling off.
Both Hossa and Sharp have stated they did not believe it was a goal.
These botched no-goal/goal/intent to blow calls infuriate me and have really made the sport less enjoyable for me. I am literally at a point where I just wish they would get rid of instant replay and the overhead camera angle as I would be happier in ignorance. What is the point in having it if the NHL refuses to use it to correct poor on-ice calls (on goals)?
Malik recently posted this topic actually came up at a GM meeting, but the idea of reviewing calls such as when a whistle was blown after the puck was in the net was turned down because they do not like taking decisions away from the on-ice officials. In other words, the officials' ability to make incorrect calls is something they feel the NHL should go out of their way to protect. Wonderful.

The best angle:

Clearly the puck doesn't get touched by his stick. It went over his stick and bounced. This is lame.
Tootoo does NOT belong on this team. He is classless and I would rather see the Wings be bad than classless. I feel the same way about Bertuzzi as well, but he at least CAN make the team better. With Tootoo the team becomes worse and in danger of being classless. Would you have liked Claude on the team? Or Roy? No. So why would you be okay with that POS.

TAHOE CITY, Calif. - If the first play of Saturday's Whittell at North Tahoe football game was any indication, the Lakers were in for a long day.
Whittell quarterback Austin Buyak connected with Ty Sprock for a 75-yard touchdown pass on the first play from scrimmage, and the Warriors went on to earn a 37-6 league win.
The Lakers seemed poised for a comeback against their lakeside rival when they drove the ball downfield with a smashmouth rushing attack led by Baird Bishop and Buster Fenley, narrowing the score to 10-6 late in the first quarter. Both Bishop and Fenley were hobbled early in the contest, however, which threw a wrench into the gears of North Tahoe's offense and defense, and Whittell took full advantage.
Buyak, a beast of a quarterback who can hurt teams with his powerful right arm or his legs, completed 12 of his 21 passes for 264 yards, with four touchdown tosses and one interception. All four of those TDs went for 34 yards or more as the Lakers struggled to fill in positions with the limited play of their big two.
"If Baird and Buster go out of the game, we have a lot of guys out of position and in a tough spot," said North Tahoe head coach Scott Everist, who suited 17 players, with only three seniors. "But to put things in perspective, no one thought we'd even be here now. These kids are tougher than snot."
Whittell head coach David Housel was pleased with his team's performance, as the Warriors limited the Lakers to 187 yards of total offense - all rushing - while tallying 397 yards of their own. The coach credited his players' effort, as well as the benefit of a "full" roster of 19 bodies.
North Tahoe moved the ball steadily down the field in the first half, repeatedly breaking off chunks of yardage with hard runs up the gut. But the Lakers only managed the one touchdown as drives petered out or resulted in turnovers.
The one TD drive was impressive. They drove 80 yards in 14 plays, capped by a bruising 3-yard run by Fenley.
The Warriors had an answer, however, as Buyak hit Sprock in the open field on the ensuing possession and the speedy senior outran the secondary for a 59-yard touchdown. Garrett Bronken kicked through one of his four PATs of the game - he also kicked a 39-yard field goal - and Whittell led 17-6 as the first quarter came to a close.
Whittell added another long touchdown play in the second quarter, this time for 41 yards from Buyak to Alex Barnes, to carry a 24-6 lead into the half.
Late in the third quarter, Hughston Norton broke free for 26 yards to the 3-yard line before being taken down by Fenley, who was already nursing an ankle injury. A scary moment ensued when Fenley rolled around complaining of pain in his neck. Coaches and trainers tended to the injured senior and determined that it was only a "stinger." He returned to the game the next quarter.
"The kids don't quit. They're hard-nosed," Everist said.
Kody Dangtongee punched the ball into the end zone two plays later, while the Warriors added a final score in the fourth on a 34-yard pass play from Buyak to Norton.
Besides Fenley and Bishop, who struggled through a thigh contusion, Everist complimented the play of his quarterback, Alex bourriague, for commanding the huddle in his first year of varsity football, as well as Jordy Holst and Travis Glander for solid games.
UP NEXT: North Tahoe hosts Battle Mountain on Saturday at 1 p.m. to end the regular season.

Everything from beds to a Steinway piano will be auctioned off at the old Erie County nursing home in Alden today as the facility prepares to close its doors for good.
But what won't be auctioned off are the buildings. Those will soon go dark – leaving some to worry about what will become of the sprawling campus that takes up nearly a quarter mile on Walden Avenue.
"If we could find a qualified user, we would be all for that," said Alden Deputy Supervisor Bill Weber. "We don't want that building, almost 600,000 square feet, sitting vacant on one of our main thoroughfares going through the town."
That's roughly the size of three Super Walmarts.
There are other challenges besides the size. Built between the 1920s and 1970s, the interconnected buildings likely have asbestos and lead paint and need a considerable amount of work to bring them up to modern standards. Not to mention the campus sits across from the county's Correctional Facility.
"It was built with a specific purpose, to house elderly people," said Legislator Terrence D. McCracken, who had been advocating for a plan for the empty campus. "There are not a lot of developers interested in retrofitting something to fit that building based on the way it was constructed."
The last residents moved out of the nursing home last month when Erie County Medical Center opened a new, $103 million long-term care facility in Buffalo. Erie County will take ownership of the complex sometime next month and will begin the process of draining pipes and taking other steps to secure the buildings that could p fencing off the land.
After that, decisions will have to be made about whether to tear down the buildings or to try to find another use.
"A demolition would probably have to come over time because of the sheer cost to demolish a building of that size," said Daniel Rizzo, deputy county public works commissioner.
Rizzo said estimates of the cost of demolition have been between $5 million and $10 million. County officials have considered the possibility of tearing down portions of the campus during the next five years.
Erie County agreed to take possession of the buildings in Alden under a broad deal struck in late 2009 with ECMC that paved the way for the construction of a new long-term care facility in Buffalo and eliminated a county obligation to cover losses at the hospital.
"This transaction was part of a larger settlement agreement in which we took over, frankly, hundreds of millions in costs over the next 20 years that the county would have previously been obligated to pay," said ECMC spokesman Thomas J. Quatroche Jr.
But what will become of the property has been a dilemma for Alden officials. Weber said town officials have explored everything from enticing a private nursing home to take over the facility to creating an agricultural food hub at the site.
There hasn't been much interest yet. But Weber said the land – especially if the buildings are torn down – could become a natural extension of the Walden Avenue business district.
It's one of the few areas of town that has public water and sewer systems.
There's another concern for town officials. If a plan isn't in place once the power is shut off, the options could become even more slim.
"You start shutting down these huge older buildings and they start deteriorating very rapidly," said Fred K. Heinle, director of economic development for the Alden Economic Development Committee. "Then what we see is the only option is demolition."
Heinle believes that the location and size of the property make it ideal for an agricultural resource center that would include a "regional food hub" for the distribution of locally and regionally grown and produced food.
But first, the hospital must finish its work to vacate the building, and that will include auctioning off hundreds of items once used to operate the home.
The auction, which will open with a preview at 8:30 a.m. followed by the auction at 10 a.m., will be held by Cash Realty & Auctions at the former nursing home, 11580 Walden Ave., Alden.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Genzyme said today it will challenge the FDA's complete response letter over the company's supplemental NDA seeking approval of Lemtrada™ (alemtuzumab) for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS).
The dispute precludes Lemtrada from meeting the drug's first contingent value right (CVR) milestone of winning FDA approval by March 31, 2014, Genzyme acknowledged.
The FDA, according to the company, is taking issue with the design of recently completed Phase III active comparator studies of Lemtrada in relapsing-remitting MS patients. The agency contends that in order to approve Lemtrada, Genzyme needs to complete one or more additional active comparator clinical trials of different design and execution than its current active comparator studies, which the FDA says have not produced evidence demonstrating that Lemtrada's benefits outweigh its adverse effects.
"Genzyme strongly disagrees with the the FDA's conclusions and plans to appeal the agency's decision," the company said in a statement in which CEO, David Meeker, M.D., added, "We are extremely disappointed with the outcome of the review and the implications for patients in the United States suffering with multiple sclerosis who remain in need of alternative therapies to manage a devastating disease."
"We strongly believe that the clinical development program, which was designed to demonstrate how Lemtrada compares against an active comparator as opposed to placebo, provides robust evidence of efficacy and a favorable benefit-risk profile. This evidence was also the basis for the approvals of Lemtrada by other regulatory agencies around the world," Dr. Meeker added.
Lemtrada is approved for marketing in the European Union, Canada, and Australia, with additional applications under review worldwide.
Lemtrada was among key assets that prompted Sanofi to acquire Genzyme in 2011 for $20.1 billion—with 17% of the purchase price, or about $3.4 billion, set to be paid out as CVRs entitling holders to additional cash tied in part to the performance of Lemtrada.
CVR holders were entitled to receive $1 per CVR if the FDA approved on or before March 31. Instead, CVRs plunged this morning on NASDAQ to 25 cents, down almost 70% from Friday's close of 82 cents, before inching up to 30 cents in before-hours trading.
The Sanofi-Genzyme merger included four additional CVR produce-sales milestones entitling holders to additionally receive:

Hensarling tip on Ryan's iPod play list: 'partial to Rush'
Jeb Hensarling, the Dallas-area congressman, served with GOP vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan on the House Budget Committee and the Simpson-Bowles deficit reduction commission.
So they've had some hang time.
Pretty close, by many accounts.
"We could not have been more proud of our colleague. Does Paul Ryan rock?" Hensarling said at Thursday's breakfast meeting of the Texas delegation. The Texans cheered and applauded.
"He rocks," Hensarling said. "OK, when he tells you his play list literally goes from ACDC to Zeppelin, he ain't kidding. And for those of us who know him best, he's a little partial to Rush."
As colleague Todd Gillman blogged earlier, Democrats trained fire Thursday on Ryan — and by extension, Hensarling — for harping on growth of the national debt and the $700 billion in cuts to Medicare Advantage plans that will kick in under President Barack Obama's health care law. Democrats noted that they and one other House Republican serving on the Simpson-Bowles panel walked away from a grand deficit-cutting plan because it called for higher taxes and didn't cut Medicare and Medicaid enough.
Hensarling, though, was aglow over Ryan's acceptance speech Wednesday night.
"In many respects, we consider that to be a validation of all the work that we've been doing for two years," he said, calling Obama "clueless" on economics. "And once we get that guy out of the White House, once we send Harry Reid back to the gambling houses of Las Vegas," the economy should start humming, he said.

The atmosphere created by some young people Thursday in Riverside Park during the Independence Day festivities turned as combustible as the fireworks.
Groups from outside the neighborhood, according to witnesses, started a number of fights and later wreaked havoc on Tonawanda Street by blocking traffic and jumping on cars before they were dispersed without arrests.
"It was a rough crowd," said Annette Class, a Riverside resident who attended with her three children.
She was upset by both a fight that broke out in the front of the crowd during the fireworks show and also the behavior of some young people afterward.
"I think next year we'll just watch it from our house," she said. "It wasn't a crowd I would want my children in, and I wouldn't suggest it for anyone with younger children."
A Buffalo police officer, who asked not to be named, confirmed some fights at the Friendship Festival, which includes carnival rides. The biggest problem was the crush of people that made it difficult to leave after the fireworks concluded.
The Police Department estimated the crowd at 20,000.
Making matters worse, the officer said, was a large group that briefly took over a street surrounding the park. "They all went on Tonawanda Street and they didn't go home. They blocked traffic, they stood in the middle of the street, they were jumping on people's cars. We just moved them out and got rid of them," said the officer, who was not authorized to speak to the media.
A large fight between women broke out during the evening, and a North Buffalo woman reported that several women jumped her.
Michael Moody, a carnival ride operator, said a fight broke out near the Sea Ray ride, a day after he witnessed a fight by the Orient Express that he said involved an estimated 45 young people.
Despite the violence, only one arrest was made Thursday. Police arrested a 20-year-old man on an illegal weapon possession charge, said police spokesman Michael DeGeorge.
Marlek Williams, of Littlefield Avenue, was arrested after police chased him from Hertel Avenue and Tonawanda Street to the second block of Gorton Street at about 11 p.m. Police found a loaded .380-caliber handgun he allegedly threw over a fence just before they caught him.
He was charged with obstruction for refusing to talk to officers at Hertel and Tonawanda, where they had responded to a "man with gun call."
A day earlier, during the festival, Justin Smith, no age available, of Ontario Street, was arrested for pulling out a knife during a fight.
Council Member Joseph Golombek Jr. said that besides "a handful of isolated fights," the event had far fewer problems than last year's festival, during which he said young people from outside the neighborhood were disruptive. The officer who spoke to The News agreed.
Crystal Best, who lives on Tonawanda Street, said she thought the sheer size of the crowd overwhelmed the ability of the police to respond to some of the problems that flared.
"There were just too many people for them to control," Best said. Additional police officers were added Friday, even though attendance was smaller than the night before.

It's Oktoberfest time in Summerville as the Summerville Breakfast and Evening Rotary clubs gear up for a bash that will put the celebration on everyone's must attend list.
While Germany's Oktoberfest is a 16-day festival held annually beginning in mid- September through the first weekend in October, Summerville will cram 16 days worth of fun into it's second annual one-day event.

By night, the band will crank up with German music by Hans Schmidt's German Band.
The Best German Costume contest is bound to bring out the creative side for everyone. All are invited to "dress German."
The Stein hoisting contest and barrel races cry out for teams to join the fun and a brat-eating contest is planned for late afternoon.
Food and drink will be available for purchase from local vendors.
And what Oktoberfest would be caught without beer. Craft and Oktoberfest beers will be sold along with other non-alcoholic drinks.

A 43-year-old Derby man's admission that he stole more than $13,000 from the Lakeshore Youth Football League could lead to a prison sentence of up to four years, the Erie County District Attorney's Office announced Thursday.
David Mascio pleaded guilty to fourth-degree grand larceny before Erie County Judge Thomas P. Franczyk, said District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III.
Mascio was serving as the league's president and treasurer when the thefts occurred between February and June 2011.
He stole more than $5,000 by cashing checks made payable to himself and also took $8,000 in cash from concession stand proceeds, the prosecutor's office said.
Sentencing is scheduled for Jan. 28.

Gov. McCrory visiting Mississippi for energy board
RALEIGH, WAKE COUNTY - North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory is back on the road talking about offshore energy exploration.
McCrory was scheduled to attend Tuesday the annual meeting of the Southern States Energy Board along the coast of Gulf of Mexico in Biloxi, Miss. He's supposed to participate in a morning forum with Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant to discuss developing oil and natural gas exploration within the Outer-Continental Shelf.
McCrory wants President Obama's administration to expand offshore leasing. He and other offshore energy boosters say it will make the country more energy independent while creating thousands of industry jobs and generating government revenues.
The governor signed a bill this year approved by the General Assembly that urges him to negotiate with South Carolina and Virginia to create a regional offshore strategy compact.

looks to soon capitalize on its success as the new sales king of the
GPU market, by launching in early 2011 its
"Fusion" products, which puts a GPU and CPU together on
a single die.At the IFA
2010 trade show in Germany this week, AMD showed
off an 18W TDP Fusion system-on-a-chip (SOC) solution.
The chip combines dual Bobcat cores with
AMD graphics, in what AMD calls an Accelerated Processing Unit
(APU). The product is codenamed "Zacate"
and looks like it could make a splash on the notebook scene thanks to
its ability to decode 1080p video and play modern video games (all on
a lean power budget). Such a processor would be particularly
desirable to ultra-portable designs.Unfortunately for AMD it
isn't the only one cooking up an APU. Bloomberg is reporting that
Intel Chief Executive Officer Paul Otellini will show off his own
company's take on a GPU+CPU SOC at the Intel
Developer Forum in San Francisco next week.The
announcement creates in an interestingly competitive scenario -- AMD
arguably has more GPU experience and the better graphics hardware
technology. But Intel has had superior
CPU processing per dollar for some time now. John
Taylor, a spokesman for the Sunnyvale, California-based AMD is quick
to note his company's graphics edge, stating, "There are decades
of research and design that goes into our discrete graphics.
Intel has yet to deliver a product that has discrete-level
performance. Right now, it's just claims."Of course
those are bold words coming from a company that has experienced
plenty of delays of its own in the past.Intel is reportedly
confident that it can outcompete AMD in terms of price. But its
integrated graphics processors thus far have been far from stellar
performers, to say the least. So who will pull off the APU
upset? The CPU champion, or the GPU grandmaster? The
financial stakes are high and the market is wide open; customers can
eagerly await a hard fought battle and the release of some exciting
new options in 2011.
quote: Anyone who knows about Intel's previous failed dedicated offerings know they have no idea what it takes to get a good GPU on the market.
quote: I was going against your stupid claim that AMD does not have said expertise
quote: I never said that at all.
quote: To date, Intel has utterly failed on the GPU front.
quote: AMD made a good choice to buy out ATI, but ATI did all the legwork and laid in the technical foundation for powerful GPUs with their Radeon brand...simply because the tech is marketed under AMD's banner does not warrant giving credit to AMD for the technical aspects of the product. AMD made a good business move but there is no props for technical innovation due.
quote: Intel has utterly failed on the dedicated GPU front. In terms of actual video chipset units sold, Intel is the leader. Their integrated graphics solutions ship more units than ATI and nVidia combined. I agree with you that Intel has failed laughably at the mid- and high-end GPU market. But at the low end where low cost, value, and low power draw are priorities, Intel is king. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2367210,00.as...
quote: I really wish AMD and nVidia would make more than a token effort to compete in this low-end low-power market. I suspect with their expertise they could make a much better-performing integrated video card than Intel with the same power consumption. Which I suppose is what this move by AMD is all about - challenging Intel's dominance of the integrated video chipset market.
quote: Q: Can Intel utilise the knowledge of even a competent GPU design team into their fusion CPU/GPUs?
quote: Does everyone seem to think that the largest and most successful chip manufacturer in history couldn't make a world class GPU if need be? It's ok to play brand favorites, just don't be naive about it.
quote: Sales will most likely be driven by Intel's name
quote: Intel has never released a good GPU of any kind
quote: Intel has never released a good GPU of any kind,

McCLURE - The children's faces lit up as they were handed small bracelets made of glow-in-the-dark beads and animal charms.
"You'd have thought we'd given them one million dollars," said Lorrie Gawryla, president of Hope International Services Inc.
Some of the children were orphans, housed at ISNA Orphanage, a government institute for street children, she explained. Others were children who live in impoverished villages in El Salvador where Hope International provides medical care, nutrition and clothing.

"When you ask them, 'What would you like?' ... (The children) don't ask for toys," she said, adding that they often wish to receive shoes or socks instead.
Gawryla is the founder of Hope International Services Inc., a non-profit organization that provides health care, education and outreach services. One area of service is El Salvador, where Gawryla travels annually with a team of volunteers to provide care to impoverished villages.
The most recent mission trip was held from March 26 to April 2. Her team included David Hearn, physician's assistant and medical adviser, and his wife, Hilary, from southern Huntingdon, and Matthew Kershaw, from Raleigh, N.C., among others.
Gawryla said the team visited El Espino, a disadvantaged village where families live in shelters with tin roofs and dirt floors. While there, volunteers provided clinics to offer families medical care, as well as necessary medicine and vitamins. They also gave families incaprina, a complete protein grain for children, she said.
Also during the trip, volunteers traveled up the mountain to San Vincente, an impoverished area isolated from other local communities.
"We provide the only medical clinic that goes there," Gawryla, who is a registered nurse, said. "... once a year. That's all the medical care they receive."
Gawryla said she mostly treats babies who are sick with high fevers. The babies are placed in tubs of water to cool their bodies, she explained.
In addition to providing treatment, Hope International works to prevent malnourishment and illness in the villages they visit. Kershaw said he helps communities set up clean water filters and teaches people how to use them.
All of the outreach provided by Hope International is funded by individuals, churches and businesses, and each trip costs approximately $10,000, Gawryla said.
The organization hopes to continue the outreach by providing one water filter to each home they serve, a total of 303 filters. Gawryla said each filter and barrel set costs $75. They also plan to provide incaprina powder milk and baby formula to 33 families monthly, at a total cost of $500 per month.
Their mission to serve ISNA Orphanage will continue by providing socks, tennis shoes, shorts and shirts to about 15 children at a cost of $42 per child. They also hope to support the transitional living program for orphans at $300 per team. Gawryla said when children graduate from ISNA at age 18, the program helps provide them with housing while orphans transition back into the community.
"We definitely need sponsors for all of these," she said.
The mission trips to El Salvador are a way to help others physically, but also spiritually, David Hearn explained. Every aspect of the visit is a chance to show others that, "Jesus is real, and Jesus cares," he said.
"God says we're supposed to treat the poor," added Hilary.
She cited James 1:27 which states, "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their time of need, and be holy."
"It challenged me as an individual," she said, adding that there is an inherent responsibility to help those in need, "especially if we have the means to do it."
In addition to medical clinics, the team said they provide community teachings on hygiene, first aid and parasite prevention.
For more information about contributing to the mission, call Lorrie Gawryla at (814) 404-0964, email email@example.com or visit www.HIServices.org.

April 30, 2013
An Elkins woman arrested after police found nine marijuana plants in her apartment remained in jail Monday on a $35,000 bond. Donna Lynn Wilfong, of 401 Lincoln Avenue, Apt....
They will have to drop the charges against her. When I was caught growing, they charged me with prohibited acts A as well, and because marijuana is not a narcotic, they had to drop the charges. Prohibited Acts A covers narcotic manufacturing.
when will this po-dunk little town learn to charge people correctly and quit wasting time and money charging people the wrong way

Is 401 Lincoln Avenue within one mile of a school? If so, shouldn't other charges be pressed?

Bread, Milk, Noro: Check!
Dear Kay, I barely got to the store in time to lay in provisions for the icy storm predicted last night. And by store I mean yarn store. Having already cleared Haus of Yarn of its most juicy Silk Garden (aka Stage One of this blanket), I bravely headed south to Bliss Yarns, located in the wilds of Brentwood, for Stage Two (aka Rilly You Don't Have Enough Of This Stuff?).

"He's a good card player," Damon told PEOPLE while attending the Planes of Fame Air Show in Chico, Calif., on Saturday.
Damon, who played a high-stakes poker player in the 1998 film Rounders, briefly addressed the gambling controversy surrounding Affleck's ban from blackjack.
Asked how good of a player his longtime friend is and whether the notion of his ban is believable, Damon replied, "Yeah, he can play."
So has Damon, who attended the air show with his wife, Luciana, and daughters Alexia, Isabella, Gia and Stella, ever used tricks from his Rounders role in the casino?
"Plenty of times," he said with a laugh.

The 1st Congressional District's war of words escalated Tuesday — two weeks before the special election — even as the candidates made no public appearances in the Charleston area.
Republican Mark Sanford, who spent the day campaigning around Beaufort, launched a new television ad renewing his attack on Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch for accepting campaign money from organized labor. The ad features a video snippet of her saying, "The voices of the union are not being heard."
Colbert Busch returned from a New York fundraiser Tuesday and plans two big events today, one with Republicans supporting her and another 5:45 p.m. rally for women at Burke High School.
And she got help this week from a new outside source: A TV ad by the nonprofit group VoteVets attacks Sanford for leaving his gubernatorial office in 2009 and not telling his staff where he was going.
The ad, part of a separate $30,000 campaign, features retired U.S. Army Col. Barry Wingard, saying, "Mark Sanford abandoned his post. No one, not even law enforcement or the National Guard could reach him," he said. "If I had abandoned my post, I could have been court-martialed."
During a campaign stop Tuesday in Beaufort County, Sanford amended his version of events the night of Feb. 3, saying a second son was at his ex-wife Jenny's Sullivan's Island house that night during half-time after a Super Bowl party, according to the Island Packet.
Sanford previously said he was at the home because he didn't want his youngest son to watch the Super Bowl alone. He currently faces a Family Court date on May 9, two days after the special election, to answer allegations he was trespassing that night.
The incident has scuttled Sanford's support among Republican groups outside the district — The Daily Caller reported that Republican members of the South Carolina congressional delegation canceled their planned appearances at a Washington luncheon for Sanford this week.
Colbert Busch is expected to receive more than $600,000 worth of help from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the House Majority PAC and VoteVets.
Meanwhile, Sanford's campaign questioned her claim in a new TV ad that she "worked with Boeing."
Sanford often has mentioned how he helped recruit Boeing as governor, and both candidates have sparred over who would vote most consistently in its interests.
Colbert Busch spokesman James Smith said in her most recent job as Clemson Restoration Institute's development director, she has worked with The Citadel, Trident Technical College and others to develop curriculum that Boeing needs so Lowcountry students can qualify for its new jobs.
The candidates are scheduled to debate on April 29, and they also both will appear the next night before the Goose Creek NAACP, though they are not expected to share a stage but address the group one at a time.

on November 11, 2012 - 1:35 AM
, updated November 11, 2012 at 1:36 AM
It's Awards Week in Major League Baseball and there are some new twists planned for the major awards handed out by the Baseball Writers Association of America. Finalists for each honor were announced last week for the first time and the actual winners will be announced in the next four days on a series of nightly shows that will begin at 6 p.m. on MLB Network.
The process is expected to be air-tight, with teams and players involved not even made aware of the BBWAA's final voting tally until the winner is announced live on the air. Monday night's show will feature the Jackie Robinson Rookie of the Year Awards in both leagues, the Managers of the Year will be unveiled Tuesday, followed by the Cy Young winners on Wednesday and Most Valuable Player winners Thursday.
Voting was conducted at the end of the regular season. Two voters in each MLB city vote for each award, meaning there are 32 voters for each National League award and 28 for each in the American League. That will even out to 30-30 beginning next year, when Houston moves to the American League.
Here's one view of how the voting might go:
Most Valuable
• American League: Wow. What a choice. History favors Detroit third baseman Miguel Cabrera, the game's first Triple Crown winner in 45 years. Stat geeks favor Los Angeles rookie Mike Trout. Sorry, Josh Hamilton. You have to sit this one out. Sort of like how you finished the season (what happened on that fly ball the last game in Oakland?).
Trout batted .326 with 30 homers, 83 RBIs, and led the league in runs (129) and stolen bases (49). How many spectacular catches did he make in center field as well? Cabrera's numbers are historic (.330-44-139) and his team won its division. He also led the league in slugging and OPS, although he's not much of a baserunner and his play at third base is average at best.
I'm inclined to get all stat-geeky on you and pick Trout and his all-around game. But a Triple Crown is a Triple Crown. And it came on a team that made the playoffs. Trout's team probably would have had the Angels not foolishly kept him in the minor leagues to start the season but the fact is the Angels sat out come October and a third-place finish in the AL West was considered a complete underachievement. The choice: Cabrera wins by a hair but I'm not going to be shocked at all if Trout gets the nod.
• National League: With apologies to 2011 winner Ryan Braun of the Brewers, Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina and first-half favorites Andrew McCutchen of the Pirates and David Wright of the Mets, this one really shouldn't be close. Giants catcher Buster Posey should be a runaway winner. He was terrific defensively and captured a batting title while hitting .337 and also led the league in on-base percentage at .410. The NL race is as simple as the AL race is complicated.
Cy Young
• American League: The Trout-Miguel Cabrera MVP race (stay tuned) has gotten far more publicity but the Cy race in the AL is far more muddied and nearly just as intriguing. The top candidates from this view are Tampa Bay's David Price, Detroit's Justin Verlander, Seattle's Felix Hernandez and Los Angeles' Jared Weaver. For sake of argument, I'm going to say King Felix (13-9, 3.06, 223 Ks) is out of the running for No. 1 after finishing the season 0-4, 6.62 in his final six starts. Weaver is out because he only was 20th in the AL in innings pitched (188) and 24th in strikeouts in spite of a 20-5 record and 2.81 ERA that was third in the league.
That leaves Price (20-5, 2.56) and Verlander (17-8, 2.64). Remember, no postseason. So no memories of Verlander pitching against the A's or Yankees (you'd have to throw out Game One in San Francisco). Verlander led the league with 238∑ — 27 more than Price and had a league-high 239 strikeouts (34 more than Price). He was second in opponents average (.217) and Price was fourth (.226). The choice: Verlander, largely for his incredible finish down the stretch when his team needed him (4-0, 0.64, 27Ks in 28 innings).
• National League: There's a case to be made for Braves reliever Craig Kimbrel (42 saves and all-time record of 16.7 strikeouts per nine innings) but I wouldn't vote for someone who threw only 63 innings. Matt Cain of the Giants went 16-5, 2.79 and threw a perfect game for a division winner. Gio Gonzalez of the Nationals led MLB with 21 wins and had a 2.89 ERA. Defending winner Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers could easily go back-to-back after leading MLB with a 2.53 ERA and posting a 14-9 record.
Then there's Mets knuckleballer R.A. Dickey. He led the NL in innings pitched (233∏), strikeouts (230, one ahead of Kershaw), complete games (5) and shutouts (3). My favorite stat, however, is that Dickey went 20-6 for a team that won only 74 games. No one comes close to that percentage of his team's wins. The former Bison became one of the most compelling stories in the game this year and better get his Cy while he can before an unrestricted Strasburg starts piling them up. The choice: Dickey over Kershaw.
• American League: Give Robin Ventura of the White Sox huge plaudits for the job he did as a first-year skipper, until his team finally caved in the final 15 games of the season. Tampa Bay's Joe Maddon won 90 games again despite missing Evan Longoria for long stretches. Oakland's Bob Melvin did an amazing job as well, keeping the A's together when they were seemingly out of the AL West race and watching them roar back to the game's best record in the second half capped by that incredible final week sweep of the Rangers to clinch an unlikely division title.
But this choice is easy. Baltimore's Buck Showalter flipped his team's record from 69-93 to 93-69, and nearly upended the Yankees in the AL East. The Orioles played hard, maybe because they were so young they didn't know any better, and showed remarkable poise in close games and extra innings that really keyed their run to a wild-card and their first playoff appearance since 1997. Showalter got the Yankees and Arizona close as well, but someone else needed to take those teams over the top. It will be interesting to see if that happens in Baltimore or if he can get the job done in 2013. The choice: Showalter, relatively easily, over Melvin.
• National League: Remember, it doesn't include the postseason. If it did, San Francisco's Bruce Bochy would get the award in a walk. Bochy will still get his fair share of votes for directing the Giants to a division title despite losing Brian Wilson to injury and Melky Cabrera to a steroid suspension. First-time skipper Mike Matheny of the Cardinals will do well in the voting and so will Dusty Baker of the Reds (although he proved to again be deficient in the playoffs).
This voting, however, is as simple as the one in the AL. Davey Johnson of the Nationals led his youthful team to an MLB-best 98 wins and even survived all the chaos caused by the Stephen Strasburg decision. Baseball is now entrenched with a legitimate contender in the nation's capital for the first time since the 1930s and Johnson seemed energized by his team even as he approaches 70. The choice: Johnson.
• American League: This is the one race where there is absolutely zero suspense. Trout will win, likely by unanimous vote. I would be astonished to find any voter who would not choose him No. 1 on their ballot. This is one of the best rookie seasons in baseball history and he's an easy choice. In any other year, however, Oakland outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and Texas pitcher Yu Darvish would certainly have a chance to take the award. The choice: Trout, by nine miles.
• National League: This is a far different picture. We're in the East, saw a lot of Nationals games and read a ton of Bryce Harper stories (he may have even come up in this space once or twice).
We didn't see a whole lot of Arizona pitcher Wade Miley and that's probably too bad because he had a sensational year. Those would be the top two, with Cincinnati's Todd Frazier, Milwaukee's Norichika Aoki and Colorado's Wil Rosario a step down.
Miley led all MLB rookies in innings pitched (194∏) and finished tied with Darvish for the lead in victories (16). He was second in ERA (3.33) and fourth in strikeouts. Harper had a fabulous year for a 19-year-old (.270-22-59, 18 steals) and was excellent defensively. He was in the top 10 among NL rookies in virtually every offensive category but didn't lead in any. I really like that he recovered from a .232 July-August swoon to bat .330 in September.
My own feeling is I tend to favor starting pitchers as rookies because there's nowhere for them to hide. Winning 16 games and throwing 194 innings is sensational, especially for a losing team. The choice: Miley, by a whisker.
