Samsung Galaxy Note 3 enters the phablet ring: 5.7" AMOLED display and new S Pen
0. phoneArena 04 Sep 2013, 12:16 posted on
Tears of joy are running down the cheeks of phablet fans worldwide today, as the third edition of the phone that created the category was just announced by Samsung at the IFA expo today. It is dubbed Galaxy Note 3, and will throw its weight into quite the different phablet environment than what it was used to the last two years. Against the formidable competition of gigantic phones like the Sony Xperia Z Ultra the Note 3 wields a new S-Pen stylus with increased functionality, a 5.7" Full HD Super AMOLED display - a feast in its own - as well as all the flagship bells and whistles we'd expect this season, and even more...

I've had the original Note, and a Note II. Last week I bought the Galaxy Mega 6.3, I'm doing this comment on. The Mega is almost as light as my note 2 and has a massive beautiful screen. So far I've had no performance problems. Only noticeable difference is that camera app shuts down a little slower. Since screen is so much bigger, I've actually had no problem using the included S Note app with my finger or a simple capacitative screen stylus I got from staples so I don't mind not having the notes built in stylus. Bought the mega for$479 off contract. The Note III is nice but frankly, for.25 more screen, it's not worth it, especially since it's better specs don't mean much in everyday use. Even I was surprised. I suspect, the note 4 will be a mega with a stylus, and when it is, I'll buy one. With Sony, HTC, and Acer building phones with screens over 6 inches, 5.7 just isn't worth the money

Shut up take my money. A little bit more. And some extra to be safe.

A phone to rule all. Everyone else compete for 2nd place now..

Where is the external speaker?
The so called leather looks more like plastic with fake plastic stitching. I'll be covering that up pronto if I get this one!
3GB of RAM is very nice, as is the 1080p 5.7" AMOLED screen.
I wish they'd gone a little bigger on the battery though.
70. JMartin22 (Posts: 1969; Member since: 30 Apr 2013)
It's on the bottom of the phone, the same style placement Apple is known for putting their speaker grills.
154. iushnt (Posts: 1699; Member since: 06 Feb 2013)
If you see their whole presentation then, they have said that the battery performance is 4 hrs better than note 2 in video playback. Seems awesome software optimization
69. JMartin22 (Posts: 1969; Member since: 30 Apr 2013)
Only 2 disappointments...
I thought they would increase the battery life in terms of mAh capacity by more than 3,200 mAh. This slim tirade manufacturers are on are putting longevity in a plateau. They did promise better battery life performance, even with the improved GPU/CPU/resolution though. So we'll see how detrimental it is.
There's no Optical Image Stabilization on the Note 3's camera. I would have hoped the rumors would be false. But to compensate for this. They used a more sophisticated and advanced LED flash technology for better low-light performance.
Other than that, the phone really is a hardware technological masterpiece for its time, and software is no exception either. Also, I wonder if this AMOLED panel will feature an unannounced RBG-Matrix sub-pixel layout like the Note II did.

S800/Exynos 5420 is more energy efficient, which is why it yields to longer battery usage.
76. livyatan (Posts: 867; Member since: 19 Jun 2013)
Oh..this is actually better than I expected.
You can take my money, Samsung.
My only slight worry was about the battery, but if it indeed offers even BETTER ENDURANCE than the Note 2 while packing far and beyond better chipset and only slightly larger battery, then this is a true masterpiece of a device!

I tired that on my GS3 and its nice.. But for note I will be keeping it some what stock.. I like to use the stylus and some features from Samsung. If I wanted to run full asop /Cymod ect I would get a Sony/LG /nexus ect..don't like having a dead s pen that I can't use to it full potential
155. iushnt (Posts: 1699; Member since: 06 Feb 2013)
the real answer is TouchWizz is on android and you can customize android heavily with several third party launchers and themes. What's the solution for iOS without jailbreak

Can't wait.. Will root this beast to make it more faster and better battery.. Don't like carrier crap and some Samsung crapware..

How did they pull an Apple? They more than doubled the performance, added 50% more RAM, about 50% higher pixel density, larger display but same size, added even more functionality to the S-Pen, and FINALLY got rid of that horrid glossy plastic. That's much more than Apple ever did with a single upgrade.

PA how can you guys post such a statement like this "The 13 MP camera on the back seems to be directly borrowed from the S4, ensuring some of the top quality images coming from an Android phone..." and when you tested the S4 versus the Moto X the S4 camera wasn't so hot especially in low light? I swear it's like a kid with a new toy, it's the best thing since sliced bread one day and so-so tomorrow and today it's great! The sensationalism in here is incredible.

I have an HTC One and I have to admit with no bias.. this phone is a BEAST. It brought everything we wanted. Ditched the glossy plastic back, 3gb RAM, 4k recording. What more can you ask for in a modern flagship?

This is why I love Samsung, coming to all US carriers. Great device and it looks a ton like the Sprint version of the Galaxy S II, but that's not bad, I like it. Why can't Sony be the same and bring it's flagship to all the US carriers? sigh. I know my decision..

its the same thing. this is just like apple lol. guys look i have the new note 3 it looks exactly the same as the older one. but i swear to u its different i promise. samsung u really lost ur creativity

eh...bigger S4 w/updated features. feel like i got away from Apple to get into something different just to be returned back to a new Apple (Samsung).
159. goprochyo (Posts: 8; Member since: 06 Aug 2013)
i have noticed 4 cons :
1. no OIS
2. only 3200 mAh battery (i was spected to be at least 3500 mAh in this huge 5.7'' phablet !!! LG G2 put 3000 mAh only in 5.2'' phone)
3. all the samsung smartphone build really cheap plastic,thats can broken easily.
4. less pixel density 386ppi than other compitetor.( barely can see on sunlight)
why samsung doesn't listen this things ?
160. phoenix985 (Posts: 27; Member since: 03 Jul 2013)
I really don't get you at all. Probably, all of you who are talking bad about this phone are just kids or crazy fan boy who is trying to justify a purchase of some other brand and just trying to make yourselves feel better. Although I own GS2, and like Samsung as a brand I will never say that other phone is bad or crappy or anything else just coz I would not buy it, or I can't buy it...All of these phones (G2, SXZ1, SXZ ultra, HTC) are really great and it just a matter of preferences which one you want to choose. If I'm trying to be unbiased and compare these phones to the NOTE 3, It gives the most for the buck. Best possible specs available at this moment (Samsung has always the best hardware at the moment of release), great screen, design is something I would not discuss since it is a good looking for me, but not necessary to others, and the S-PEN. All other phones are pretty similar, have the same CPU, same GPU, more or less the same screen size, but the S-PEN is NOTE3 exclusive feature, and awesome in my opinion. All the possibilities you can do with it are just amazing, multitasking at its best. None of other manufacturers have made anything similar. If I look at the XYZ1, it's a great phone per se, but nothing interesting for me. CPU and GPU are ok, nowadays standard, design wise is ugly (my opinion) coz it looks as a brick with huge bezels, has water, dust proof feature that might be cool for someone, but I do not intend to swim with my phone or take it to Sahara, so not a dealmaker for me. It has 20mpx cam, which is cool, but also not a dealmaker for me coz since we past 5mpx all photos look great for me and I do not intend to print a jumbo billboards so no use for me on that as well. But what matters is size, weight, battery, microsd and functionality and here is the SAMSUNG the king, coz it is not a regular phone, it's a niche phone and shouldn't be compared to the XYZ1, yet to the Ultra which, in my opinion is a huge brick the will be a fail since it cannot match NOTE3 in any aspect except its size, which is at the same moment a deal breaker. Looking at the phablet category, I cannot find better phone than NOTE3. Sure, there are some specs better on other phones, but overall, NOTE3 is the king, best benchmark scores, latest tech, S-pen, features, Knox security...actually, the only thing I could say it could be done better is design. I am open for discussion so please, let me know why other would be better than this, and please don't mention design and materials….Ppl are taking about the same SAMSUNG design, yet praising SONY design, but just look at their last 30 phones, all the same design, so don't be hypocrites. Maybe Samsung is not the best looking phone in town, but sure has better ergonomics. Nevertheless, OEMS should be the same, coz we wouldn't have any competition and at least you have a large choice, so in the end, take what you like and STFU. Love what you got, but respect others!!!

Halo 4
appleturnover87 4 years ago#11
I think this game is great.
Ah, poopinyoface thinks it's great guys. That's a great indicator
What's love got to do, got to do with it?
yoshiisback 4 years ago#12
The matchmaking system is silly without ranks. In Halo 2 and 3, you knew who was typically better than you according to rank, and this game needs that.
XBL GT: Yoshi eats
As a fellow Halo fan and competitive player I honestly just dont want to play a broken game. Halo 4 needs an update where ranks are visible in game. People really shouldn't start out with boltshot but if you must have it as a starting weapon nerf it then, its too OP to the point people get annoyed and stop playing altogether.as well as other weapons the boltshot was an example. The game got very repetitive and it seems boring(to me). the competitive settings are not set in stone and if they are there wont be a playlist for it. anyways thats how i feel, which is why i wont play at the moment and also the fact i have a real life with real problems and there are just some things that are more important right now.
Silent-N-Deadly 4 years ago#14
i dont like how weapons like, dmr, battle rifle, light rifle have taken over
PSN: Silent-N-Deadly
I personally love the game and think it's the best Halo yet (yes I've played all the others, unless wars counts). But, even though the game does have its stupid things (others halos had their own stupid things) my biggest problem isnt as much with the game, as it is with 343. I just feel like 343 doesnt connect with the fanbase as much as bungie did.
this topic/poll is ironic.
MonoSilentD 4 years ago#17
The constant whining from the community. If you don't like the game then STOP PLAYING IT! Trade it to GameStop and get cod or something.
Super Vejita 4 years ago#18
I don't think it's dying. Though the whining is pretty annoying if you ask me.
I think it's too early to say 343 mismanaged it, as it's only been out for two months and there is an update coming...though they have dropped the ball when it comes to Spec Codes.

1. Too many power weapons
2. Ordnance Drops
3. Weapon Spawns are random & spawn halfway into the game. Like on Complex the Laser doesn't spawn right off the bat. Rockets on Abandon.
4. The little things that were change from previous Halos that didn't need to be changed. Flinching while zoomed in, no pickup on grenades without a perk.
5. Armor Abilites. I just hate them all.
Not changing until the Lions win the Superbowl. 7-17-07

I'll admit, the game is in desperate need of a ranking system. When I first started out as like a level 1 through 10, I would very frequently have to go up against numerous guys in the 80s, 90s, or 100s. So I'd get my ass kicked over and over again because, yeah, I was new and they had played like a thousand games already. That should never happen. Even now that I'm a little better, being around level 30, I still don't like playing against guys that high, and I shouldn't have to.
It's not that hard to design a system that matches you against players of a similar skill level to yours. I feel like everyone would have more fun that way, as the challenge would be appropriate. I don't really have fun playing people far worse than me, and I definitely don't have fun playing people far better than me.
Other than that, the game is a lot of fun and I'm having a very good time with it. Of course, a popular online game is naturally going to have an awful lot of trolls and haters, so I'm not really all that surprised to see these Halo 4 boards absolutely jam-packed with users who seem to despise Halo 4.

After a devastating 37-20 loss to the Giants at home this past Sunday, many Packers fans are wondering, "What happened?" I know I found myself pondering that same question after Green Bay got blown out of their stadium in the playoffs.
Despite the fact that the Packers had some apparent holes throughout the course of the season, I truly believed that this veteran team with a history of winning would at least patch things up during the playoffs. However, instead of fixing things, they combined uncharacteristic mistakes with the problems they have been having all year.
It's time for this team to regroup after a disappointing season, and make some changes to their team this offseason. The Packers have a great core of players as is, but in order to become the dynasty so many people believed they would be, they need to add talent through the draft and free agency to fill holes across the team.
These are the cuts, signings and draft picks that should be made in order to get back on track next season.

We stayed at six different hotels during a New Mexico road trip and this one was by far the most modern and my favorite. The room was clean, contemporary, and "no frills", but had everything we needed. Toiletries were provided as well. The shower/tub seemed huge compared with many other hotels in this price range.

"Identity Crisis" is the 92nd episode of the science fiction television series Star Trek: The Next Generation. The 18th episode of the fourth season.
Geordi La Forge's friend and former crewmate, Lieutenant Commander Susanna Leijten, has come aboard the Enterprise-D; she is concerned that she and La Forge are the only two members of a previous 5-man away mission from the USS Victory to a seemingly abandoned colony on the planet Tarchannen III that are still accounted for; the other three, independently, have stolen a shuttlecraft from their current post and returned to the planet. Picard orders the ship to Tarchannen III; there, they find one of the stolen craft, manned by Lt. Hickman, attempting to land on the planet. The Enterprise is unable to establish communication with Hickman, and the craft is incinerated during re-entry.
On the surface, Leijten and La Forge discover another shuttlecraft, empty; strange footprints are seen near it. Leijten starts feeling ill, and they return to the Enterprise. Leijten improves immediately, but Dr. Crusher finds evidence of alien skin in Leijten's blood, not indigenous to the planet. While reviewing the data on the original Victory away team, Leijten becomes jittery and insists they return to the planet, and then starts exhibiting bright blue veins across her body. In Sick Bay, Dr. Crusher restrains Leijten and determines she is transforming into another species, and worried that this fate will befall La Forge. La Forge continues to study the data and discovers an anomaly in the original mission data. He notices a shadow in the recording that does not appear to belong to anyone on the mission. Starting to feel the same effects as Leijten, La Forge uses the data in the holodeck to reproduce the scene. By eliminating members of the mission from the scene he manages to discover that their team was in the presence of an invisible alien humanoid creature that created the shadow. It resembles what Leijten was transforming into. He suddenly goes into convulsions himself and soon transforms into the alien creature easily escaping the Enterprise due to his invisibility and beaming down to the surface.
Dr. Crusher discovers that Leijten's transformation was triggered by an alien parasite that was capable of overwriting its host's DNA; removing the parasite quickly returns Leijten to normal. Leijten tells Dr. Crusher that placing the parasite in the host is the way the species has of reproducing. On learning that La Forge has left the Enterprise and beamed to the planet and that an away team is going to search for him, Leitjen says that she is the only one that will be able to find him. Leijten joins the away team on the surface searching for La Forge. Using ultra-violet light, they discover a number of the creatures, all transformed members of the colony and the former Victory crewmembers. Leijten recognizes one as La Forge, and is able to coax him away and take him back to the ship where he is similarly cured. However, the other crewmen have been transformed far too long to be saved, and they are left behind on the planet; Picard orders warning beacons placed around the planet to protect both the creatures and the Federation.

AboutSharing useful tools and information for Managers, Developers and System administrators of web applications. As a start only Whois database is being released to help with rate control issues.
Rest API deployed to ProductionWhile the Rest API is ready, there is no documentation to go with it. Hence this domain was recycled and a good time to use NPM as well as NodeJS to make a static site that is multi-device. Here boilerplate from Google, Web Starter Kit came in handy. A good time to re-learn all the HTML from 18 years ago that was mostly learned offline using Internet Explorer 3.0 error page source code as reference.
30% through Whois data collection, Rest API readyAfter a few setbacks with Python module for a Cloud based CouchDB, restarted locally and as of date the IPv4 range is 30% covered. Somewhere along the line began working on Rest API and its now ready for deployment. This is where the Python microframework known as Flask was used for the API. Needs improvement in specific IP matches but otherwise works fine for collecting iterative data.
started Collecting Whois dataHalf way through collecting whois data and storing in JSON format. The purpose is to collect IP data and be able to query it manually or automatically in programs. Fortunately the RDAP format is now available with all RIR, the last one being AFRINIC. This saves a lot of trouble, however every RIR has rate controls in place. As such the data collected and refreshed over time will be made available without rate controls.
TechnologyThe site is new and using a boiler template. The site will be updated as and when there is content and perhaps some small improvements along the way. For now enjoy trying to figure out which links are actually working.
DataDatabases and Data by API are being made available for anyone to use.
ContentsRate Limits Whois
Rate Limits
Currently there isn't any specific rate limit. The expectation here is for the end user to be considerate. 2 queries per second is acceptable maximum for any use case. IP Blocking is in place for permanent denial of service for the most abusive IPs only. Idea is to enforce some logic instead of blindly querying the API. Use caching where you can, use "Accept-encoding: gzip" if you can.
Whois APIThe Whois data converted from RDAP to a local JSON format is available and continuously updated. The basic usage is outlined below.
- Path: /iputils/whois/
- Endpoint: http://www.webmastersupport.com/iputils/whois
- Method: GET
- Arguments: IP Address / (optional: subnet mask)
Example: GET http://www.webmastersupport.com/iputils/whois/184.108.40.206
Dealing with Rate limits is easy for this one. It is best to query for the start address and skip to the end address in the CIDR block of addresses. Query for the next address. Any programming language of your choice will have basic IP and Subnet manipulation librarylike Python's netaddr

New trial date set for Enrique Arochi, who's accused in kidnapping of Christina Morris
The trial of an Allen man suspected in the disappearance of Christina Morris has been postponed three months.
Enrique Arochi, 26, appeared in court Thursday in shackles and a green jail jumpsuit for a hearing on his attorneys' request for a delay. His trial has been moved from June 6 to give the defense more time to review 24 discs of discovery turned over by prosecutors last week. The trial was originally moved to Sept. 12 but has been reset for Sept. 6.
Arochi has pleaded not guilty to a charge of aggravated kidnapping. He is accused in the disappearance of Morris, 23, who was spotted on surveillance video walking with Arochi into a parking garage at The Shops of Legacy in Plano just before 4 a.m. Aug. 30, 2014. Morris, of Fort Worth, hasn't been seen since.
Arochi has said he doesn't know what happened to her, but police say her DNA was found in the trunk of his Camaro.
Among the new information turned over to the defense are raw surveillance videos, a spreadsheet logging the 450-plus tips to police on Morris' disappearance, Arochi's mail and phone calls while in jail, and a 250-page analysis of key video evidence.
Prosecutor Zeke Fortenberry said the most relevant video clips were condensed into one video and turned over to the defense more than a year ago. The video analysis and raw video feeds are new, he said.
"Both sides are working diligently in this case, but it is a lot of material," defense attorney Steven Miears said in asking for at least 90 more days.
The defense also filed a motion this week for a change of venue, citing the huge amount of pretrial publicity in the case that could prevent Arochi from getting a fair trial in Collin County. The motion suggested the trial could be moved to Houston, Austin or San Antonio.
District Judge Mark Rusch said he would hear arguments on the change of venue on June 6. If there is a change, he will decide where the trial gets moved.
He will also hear arguments on dozens of motions from the defense to suppress evidence collected in the case. Defense attorneys are trying to prevent a jury from hearing everything from DNA results to Arochi's emails to toll road and cellphone records and items seized during a search of his home. Defense attorneys have also filed a motion to quash the indictment in the case.

Hamburger New
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 mins
My husband's favourite burger shop - the only burger shop in our little village 35 years ago - still serves this Hamburger called "Hamburger Neu" which means "Hamburger New". Unluckily the owner of the place who invented this fabulous burger has died several years ago. There are new owners who serve the same burger, but it's not quite the same as it used to be, so we decided to make it ourselves. The onions used can be purchased in boxes in Germany. If you don't get them in the US, just fry your own, it's more work but even better I guess ;-)
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 bun
- 1 hamburger patty
- 1⁄2 cup ketchup
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 cucumber, pickled (sweet and sour)
- 1 tomatoes, sliced
- 1⁄4 cup fried onions
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
- Stir together ketchup and curry powder.
- Combine mayonnaise and mustard.
- Slice pickled cucumber and tomato.
- Lightly toast the split burger bun while frying the burger patty until done.
- Place the lettuce leaves on the base of the bun, top with sliced tomato.
- Place the burger patty on top of the tomato slices, cover with sliced cucumber.
- Pour curry ketchup on top, then decorate with mustard-mayonnaise.
- Top with fried onions and the second half of the bun.
- Don't try to take this with your hands and bite into it. Use fork and knife to prevent a mess.
- Enjoy :).

Wow! I need more stars!!! I made two burgers out of this with cutting the ketchup mixture in half...I told the hubby that he needed a knife and fork to eat it...He doubted me...but after taking the photos he made a point of reminding me that I needed a fork and knife to eat the hamburger....my first bite was full of dancing flavors...I could only eat half of the burger...it was very filling but satisfying...thanks for posting the recipe...made for Spring 2014 PAC...=)
What a different type of burger for me! First, I didn't have a hamburger patty....just ground chuck. So I wasn't sure how large it was supposed to be and just improvised! Wasn't sure if it was supposed to be seasoned or not, but decided to stick with just salt and pepper because of the curry in the ketchup. My first bite was questionable....so different from anything I've ever had, but by the 3rd bite I was sold. Just had to wrap my head around such a different taste for a burger! LOL! I think this would be really good on Naan bread or Pita bread....I'll give that a go next time. Thanks for sharing! Made for Aussie Reunion Tag.
Very good. I made it exactly as directed ans both me and my DH loved it. Thank you, this is a keeper!

Dr. O'Neal has been my doctor for 10 years and when my job changed, my decision on the type of medical insurance I signed up for is what he accepts. He is the only doctor I've seen that just doesn't give you a pill and sends you on your way. He wants to find out what is wrong and the staff in his office does a wonderful job with follow-ups. Because he is such a good doctor, appointments and the wait can be long but knowing what kind of doctor he is is worth the wait.
I have been Dr. O'Neal's patient since he first started practicing in Redlands, CA, over 30 years. I would not change doctors for anything. He is the best.
me and my wife have been s patient of Dr. O'Neal he is a very good physcicani know he goes to the hospital to do rouunds in the morning then when finished he spends the day at Beaver medical clinic until late like 7:30 because i have walked out of his office late many tiain then back home iiimes then back to RCH for rounds until 9:00 at least because i was at rry LeafRCH and he would come at 9:00 to do rounds

Mayweather: I Want One of My Fighters To Surpass Me
By Ryan Burton
MGM GRAND, Las Vegas - WBC welterweight champion Floyd "Money" Mayweather is just a day away from his showdown against Robert Guerrero. Over the past year Mayweather's promotional company, Mayweather Promotions, has really taken off. In February, Ishe Smith became the first boxer fighting under Mayweather's promotional banner to capture a world title. Five of Mayweather's fighters will be featured on Saturday's undercard including J'Leon Love's bout against Gabriel Rosado that will be part of the televised pay-per-view portion of the card.
Mayweather said that his ultimate goal is for one of his fighters to surpass the greatness that he has achieved. He said that he continually strives to put his fighters in the best position possible so that they can be successful. The 36-year-old champion tries to pass down what he has learned in a career that has spanned 17 years and counting.
"My long term goals are that hopefully I have a fighter surpass me - as long as I am a part of it. I want to be a part of a fighter going to the pinnacle. Who wouldn't want to be part of a fighter going to the top? I would love to be a part of it. The only thing I can do is keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best and constantly continue to put them in the best position possible. That is what it is about. I preach to them all the time. We sit down and I talk to them. I tell them things about my life, things that I learned at an early age. I want to help young fighters," stated Mayweather.
The Las Vegas resident said the fact that he is a boxer, and one who is still active, sets him apart from other promoters. He said that he can relate to fighters because he can see things the same way that they can and at the same time he is cognizant of the business aspect of putting on a promotion.
"I always tell the fighters I can see things from both sides as far as a promoter and as a fighter. I can see it from the same vision they see out of because I fight just like they fight. Don King can't see from a fighter's point of view. Bob Arum can't see from a fighter's point of view - because they aren't fighting. They are just promoters. To where as I believe in a fighter in the long run. That is what I believe," Mayweather explained.

Man admits to trespassing on school groundsJuly 09,2013BENNINGTON A Benmont Avenue man will spend a year on probation after admitting Monday to being at the Southwest Vermont Career Development Center on May 8 in violation of a no trespass order.
Brandon T. Billings, 21, pleaded guilty on Monday in Bennington criminal court to a misdemeanor charge of unlawful trespass. Billings was sentenced by Judge Cortland Corsones to serve 45 to 60 days in jail, but all of that time was suspended.
In an affidavit, Deputy Roscoe Harrington of the Bennington County Sheriffs Department said he was notified that Billings was at the career development center, which shares a campus with Mount Anthony Union High School, by the high schools head of security.
Harrington said several students had reported that Billings was sitting on the steps outside the career development center.
Billings had been served with a court order on June 14, 2011, that said he was not to be at the career development center or the high school.
Harrington said when he checked the steps, Billings was not there but video surveillance footage showed Billings had been on school grounds.
According to an affidavit, Billings admitted on May 16 that he had been at the school but said he thought the court order had expired.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER The Vermont State Colleges System Board of Trustees voted unanimously Thursday to...

Stanford's 2013 offensive line will average about 10 pounds heavier at each position than its 2012 counterpart (and Shannon Turley will make sure that's functional weight and not just blubber). Plus, the Cardinal will feature a bevy of intriguing weapons at the skill positions, despite losing Zach Ertz, Stepfan Taylor, and Levine Toilolo.
Admittedly, many of those key players will be virtually untested commodities. Still, spring ball demonstrated that the framework is present for the Stanford offense to stride forward 2013. Thus, the most vital variable in the equation is the play of quarterback Kevin Hogan, who started for the Cardinal down the stretch run and through the Rose Bowl. If Hogan's progression as a redshirt sophomore is anything like the second-year maturation of the previous two Stanford quarterbacks in the Jim Harbaugh/David Shaw era, Stanford has much to look forward to this coming season.
CoachingSearch.com's Pete Roussel compiled a simple collection of Stanford offensive stats from the past six seasons that presents a good picture of the improvement that one can reasonably expect in 2013. Obviously, Roussel's compilations confirm that Stanford offensive production did indeed peak during Andrew Luck's Heisman Trophy runner-up 2010 and 2011 seasons (the 2011 offense averaged a staggering 489 yards per game), but the third down efficiency column best portends future trends.
Third Down Percentage in a Quarterback's Second Year
Stanford's sputtering 2012 attack converted 38 percent of third downs, on par with 2008, the last pre-Luck year. That 2012 figure was down 19 points from its peak in 2010, when the Cardinal converted a sensational, NCAA-best 57 percent of third downs. That Orange Bowl season, Luck's redshirt sophomore year, saw a drastic 13-point increase in third down conversion percentage from Luck's first season as quarterback. (The Cardinal converted 44 percent of third downs in 2009.)
Similarly, Stanford enjoyed marked gains in Tavita Pritchard's second year under center, though Toby Gerhart's 2008 return from knee injury also obviously played a significant part in that improvement. The 2007 Cardinal converted on only 29 percent of third downs, while the 2008 squad moved the chains 38 percent of the time.
It's important to separate 2012's performance into two distinct categories, though. When discussing Hogan, the 38-percent figure is deceptively low since it includes the eight-game Josh Nunes stint during which Stanford converted only 38 of 112 third downs (34%). After Hogan came along at Colorado, that figure shot up to 45 percent through the final six games of the season -- comparable to Luck's freshman season.
Hogan's mobility proved to be an excellent asset when it came to moving the chains. But the best news for Stanford is that his starting career is less than half a season old. Expect third down efficiency under No. 8 to improve even more in year two, just as it did under Pritchard in 2008 (+9%) and Luck in 2010 (+13%).
Fifty percent third down efficiency isn't out of the question, and the framework for that improvement to occur seems to be present with Stanford's developing offensive line and spring promise from the skill positions. Combine that with an entire offseason of preparation as the starting quarterback, and it's reasonable to expect that Hogan's offense will establish consistency and avoid the long scoring droughts that plagued 2012.
Importance of Defensive Rest
The good news is that even modest offensive efficiency improvements should provide a potentially significant boost to the Cardinal's elite defense. Many Stanford defensive players have told me that their point of greatest physical exhaustion was the 2010 win at Arizona State, a contest in which the Cardinal offense struggled to convert a first down throughout a large chunk of the first half. Winded because of such constant defensive activity, many defenders yelled toward the offensive huddle on the sidelines, pleading with them to move the chains, not necessarily to score, but just to buy a minute or two of extra rest for the defense on the sidelines.
The Cardinal's defense successfully battled through similar fatigue last season, particularly when they overcame 10 straight scoreless offensive possessions to shut down a blur-speed Oregon attack at Autzen Stadium. Superior depth, which returns in 2013, certainly helped the cause, but an overworked defense runs the risk of eventually cracking. (See the disastrous loss at Washington this past season, in which one poor hustle cost the Cardinal the game.)
If Stanford's third-down efficiency percentage can replicate past improvement, the Cardinal defense will have the oxygen to make the make the jump from an elite unit to a virtually unstoppable one. A 50-percent offensive conversion rate would be yet another lethal asset for Derek Mason's defense.
That's the key for this 2013 team's Rose Bowl and national championship hopes. The Stanford offense doesn't need to be spectacular. It just needs to buy the defense the rest necessary to suffocate its opponents. Hogan's 2012 insertion in the lineup was step one. Now, recent statistical trends demonstrate that further improvement is a legitimate possibility.

After closing in late September due to sagging, the Leo Frigo Memorial Bridge in Green Bay is set to reopen to traffic in both directions on Sunday, Jan 5.
Repairs have been completed three weeks ahead of schedule after they began in November.
The $18 million to $20 million project was done following a state investigation that found the 400 ft. area that was sagging by around two-feet, was caused by corrosion of steel pilings around one of its supporting piers, as much as ten-feet below ground. Testing revealed soil around the pilings was contaminated with a corrosive compound.
The bridge handles an estimated 30,000 to 40,000 vehicles a day, while its closing leading to traffic problems due to detours.
