SORRENTO —The mayor and a councilman of October, and the council members Sorrento engaged in a verbal altercation that led to sheriff's deputies being called to Town Hall earlier this week.
According to an incident report obtained from the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office, Mayor Wilson Longanecker said he felt threatened by Councilman Jason Adams prior to Tuesday night's special Town Council meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to allow the mayor and council to discuss a potential lawsuit threatened against the town's Police Department.
Police Lt. Rosevelt Hampton and Sgt. Eric Waggenspack responded to the request, which came from Police Chief Earl Theriot, according to the report written by Hampton.
No arrests were made following the dispute, the report shows.
Longanecker said he was in his office prior to Tuesday's council meeting when Adams and Councilman Milton "Needlenose" Vicknair came to speak to him about unpaid attorneys' fees.
Town Attorney Donovan Hudson said he told council members that he hadn't been paid for work he performed in went to talk to Longanecker about getting the invoice paid.
Longanecker said he explained to the two councilmen that he had some questions about the bill for Hudson's supervisor, Karl Scott, and he was awaiting a response from Scott. Longanecker's explanation, however, wasn't sufficient for Adams, Longanecker said.
"I don't think they really want to hear anything I have to say," the mayor said.
Longanecker said that during the discussion, Adams became irate, slamming his fist on the mayor's desk and pointing at him in a threatening manner, and the mayor was fearful that the situation would escalate even further.
"It kind of blindsided me," Longanecker said, "especially to be in my office while I'm sitting at my desk."
Adams, who briefly served as interim mayor last year, said he didn't want to address the altercation in too much detail because Longanecker filed a formal complaint. However, he said he wanted to talk to the mayor to "take up for the attorneys because they haven't been paid."
"He doesn't want to work with (the council)," Adams said of the mayor. "He doesn't want to work with the attorneys. He's combative. He's constantly combative. He's not sharing information."
Longanecker accused Adams of cursing at him and treating him in a "hostile manner," something that should not be tolerated.
"You don't have to like me, but you need to respect the position I hold," Longanecker said.
Adams admitted that the conversation "got heated," but he said at no point did he attempt to attack the mayor, and he was "only emphasizing a point."
Hudson, who has been at odds with Longanecker at times over the mayor's handling of ongoing allegations and concerns involving the town's Police Department, said that since Longanecker returned from medical leave in August, the town government has not been running very smoothly.
"So many things could be handled in a way that would not exacerbate anything," Hudson said.

A teenager from Otley is among three talented chefts who have reached the final of a prestigious cookery competition run jointly by a Michelin-starred chef and a leading cookery school.
The title of the Golden Apron 2014 will be awarded to Yorkshire's best young chef on Monday, April 7.
The competition was open to young chefs aged between 14 and 19 from across the county.
The three finalists are: Oliver Robinson, 15, from Otley, who is at Prince Henry's Grammar School, and studies hospitality and cookery once a week on day release at Leeds City College; Jake Fawcett, 18, from Wakefield, who is studying for a Level 3 Diploma in Advanced Professional Cookery at Wakefield College; and Georgie Smithson-Brown, 14, from Great Hatfield, near Hornsea, who is a pupil at Hornsea School.
The Golden Apron is an initiative from James Mackenzie of the Pipe and Glass, South Dalton, near Beverley – one of only five Michelin-starred chefs in Yorkshire – and Tim Rymer of the Yorkshire Wolds Cookery School and farming company JSR, both based at Southburn, near Driffield.
The competition is sponsored by food suppliers Cranswick plc and Sainsbury's.
The three finalists have already cooked their way through two heats at the cookery school. At the first, they produced a pork dish to their own recipe, and at the second, the semi-final, a two-course dinner from James' recipes for salmon tartare with hot smoked salmon scotch egg and pickled samphire, followed by forced Yorkshire rhubarb with parkin and rum chantilly.
They will now cook alongside James and his team at The Pipe and Glass on April 7 to produce a gala dinner for invited guests.
One contestant will then be named as The Golden Apron 2014, and be given a work placement with Cranswick plc, working on the Sainsbury's account with their new product development team.
Oliver reached the semi-finals of the competition last year, and is delighted to have got a stage further this year. He said: "It feels great – it means that I'm developing as a chef."
James Mackenzie said: "There was fierce competition this year – we've seen some great cooking in both heats. I can't wait to work alongside these three in my kitchen and really push them to their limits."
JSR chairman Tim Rymer said: "The standard of dishes served to us by these young chefs was really impressive. They would not be out of place in any fine dining restaurant."

Gov. Andrew Cuomo got a late holiday present from Lt. Gov. Robert Duffy at a cabinet meeting today: a Buffalo Bills helmet.
The state announced a 10-year lease agreement on Dec. 21 to keep the NFL team in western New York. Cuomo was expected to attend the announcement in Buffalo, but couldn't get there because of poor weather.
The state and Erie County are expected to kick in $226 million as part of the deal, with the Bills picking up $44 million in stadium renovations and capital costs. The state's contribution will total $123 million, and Erie County will pay $103 million.
Cuomo and Duffy, the former Rochester mayor, hailed the agreement today, saying it was critical to keep the team in town. Duffy said Cuomo's "completion percentage is the envy of any NFL quarterback in terms of what he has done over the last two years."
Cuomo was excited about the gift, saying "That's the real deal. That's a beauty."
And he joked the helmet "will help with legislative relations."

I am in a disagreement with QueenBuffy about the use of images. Specifically the use of images from an Entertainment Weekly (EW) photo shoot made available last week. QueenBuffy has worked hard on uploading those images and adding them to articles. The whole set can be found at our season 2 article. I had some concerns about the way the images were used:
- They are the property of EW and we do not have permission to use them. We can make an argument that they are fair use images but I think that necessitates crediting the source wherever they are used.
- They show several cast members in costume but not with the same hair and makeup that they wear in character so I think it is misleading to say they are images of the characters. Likewise while they were produced to advertise season 2 they are not images of season 2 and instead were produced independently by EW in the post production period.
I began a process of renaming the images to mention EW, adding source information to their description, adding the fairuse licensing tag ({{fairuse}}), removing the categories Image (Season 2) and Image (Character) and ensuring that Image (Promotional) was used (which it already was in all cases) for the images themselves. I then checked that on the pages the images were being used they had an appropriate caption noting their source. For images in infoboxes I swapped them with a suitable image in the image gallery so that I could add a caption.
QueenBuffy left me a message saying that she preferred the EW images. I explained my reasoning about using the images carefully but I think we still disagree. I wonder if our fellow editors might be able to help us to build a consensus?
--Opark 77 10:55, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
I say list them as promotional images. But they fit at the character infoboxes, at least for now, until better looking material is released.--Gonzalo84 15:09, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Well, you know where I stand on it. I think it's okay to use their promotional images as infobox pics. They just stand out and look brilliant. (Beside some are already being used, like Arya's, etc. The one of Jon Snow and Tyrion for example are just so epic! lol --QueenBuffy 15:26, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
They are promotional images from EW, not HBO, and should not be used in infoboxes, as they depict the actors, not the characters (as noted, some have different hairstyles/hair colours - most notably Nikolaj Coster-Waldau - to their characters). The magazine covers can be used with fair use. The other images' use at all is dubious as they are copyrighted by EW. Remember that we have specific blanket permission from HBO to use their images, which is not the same as blanket permission to use all GoT images everywhere. If people want to use the other EW images, then their origin (EW) must be listed. I would also advise keeping the image sizes down (the sizes at the moment appear okay).--Werthead 16:39, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
- Speaking -strictly- from a user standpoint, my personal preference is to have all the images be as consistently similar in visual style as possible. If there were nice photoshoot-style images for all the main and recurring characters - correctly shown in full costume/makeup - then that would be great. Since that is basically never the case with a TV series, I think I prefer having screenshot images (of their most recent look) from actual scenes. In keeping with that, I think we should work to get better screenshots so that the images are all the same dimensions, and are all showing each character at approximately the same size/distance. This is a tall order, I know, but hopefully with the new season we'll be able to grab better shots of some of the more obscure characters. Either way, we definitely should never have character images showing the actors in anything other than full costume/makeup - as they would appear in an episode.
- As far as the actual use of the EW images here, I'm inclined to look at it from their perspective. If I were EW, there's no way I'd grant use of them to us. They use theirs to sell magazines and adspace on their site, and while the users of this wiki aren't trying to do that themselves, Wikia is. Obviously, they are not a wiki site, and we are not an entertainment magazine, but we are in competition with them for "hits," and therefore ad revenue. If we use them anyway, we're clearly treading in a "fair use" grey area, which could be argued until both sides are blue in the face. I think it sort of boils down to the question of- how good do we feel about using these images? On top of that I cite Opark's point that these are post-production images done by EW for EW. They are designed to look dramatic, and "pretty" in order to sell magazines, not to be 100% accurate. They look good, but the attention to detail where actual onscreen looks are concerned is just not there. I don't mean to come across as being overly critical, but I think using them actually brings our legitimacy as an encyclopedic reference down a hair.
- If the images are from HBO, of course we still want attribution in place, but they want us to use them. This whole wiki is like one big free billboard for the show, generating new interest, and feeding the addiction of already faithful viewers. So long as we keep providing accurate, reliable info about the show, I'm sure HBO will continue to welcome the free publicity.
- --XD1 20:00, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
- So do you think we need to go ahead and remove every EW image that was uploaded? I can start rolling back the images I added. --QueenBuffy 21:38, March 18, 2012 (UTC)
- I don't think we need to go that far. I think we should limit their use to the blog post about EW releasing them and the season 2 page for now.--Opark 77 21:43, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

"This is my second purchase from wedding paper divas and again I am very happy with my product. Easy site to navigate, super fast delivery all the way to NZ. The print and paper quality would have been perfect if the bottom pictures hadn't been cropped slightly. They still look great but it may pay to check your not going to lose anything important if the bottom is cropped just a smidge. Again very pleased with this company :)"
"This is a really classy thank you note. I had people I wrote a thank you note to thanking me for the beautiful thank you."
"I loved our thank you cards. We chose the color coast on the cards and added all of our coastal wedding pictures and it turned out beautiful."
"I needed to order thank you cards in a hurry with our first shower happening soon after our engagement photo session. I selected this card as it allowed us to display one of our favorite pictures as well as plenty of space on the back to write our thanks! So many of the recipients have reached out to me saying they love the card! We definitely agree with them- we love the card too! I ordered on a Saturday afternoon, made two additional edits and received them on Wednesday afternoon with expedited shipping. The WPD customer service was great as well via phone and email. I plan to order our wedding invitations soon from this site."
"My Thank You cards come out beautifully. I really fell in love with the design since it went perfectly with the fact I'm getting married in a park. I had also ordered the save-the-date postcards and Invitations of this design at the same time. When I opened the box I really was so happy with how lovely all three looked together."

Please nominate the members you think have best helped others provide effective multimedia content to their audience.
Photographer of the YearImagery forms one of the foundations for web design, and one of the most powerful elements is the use of photography. This award is for the member who has displayed the best eye for photography this year, displaying dazzling images, whether through one of the monthly memes or just in showing off their portfolio.
Social Media Guru of the YearSocial Media has become one of the most powerful tools in any web developers arsenal, but using it correctly can potentially make or break a site. Nominate the person(s) you think has the best understanding of social media AND has helped guide others in finding their way into that whole other world.
Design Your Site
CSS Guru of the YearCSS is one of those banes of the design world. You've got to know the ins and outs of each browser and how CSS plays with each one. You've got to know the box model, the IE6 annoyances, how the doctype plays havoc, etc. Who do you think can make css get up and dance? Please nominate the members that who you think have made the greatest contributions to the CSS forum.
(X)HTML Guru of the YearWhere is a table effective? Do you need a div or a span or a p? What is the difference between ul, ol and dd? What is XHTML and where should it be used? These questions (and more) are what is covered by the (X)HTML guru. Please nominate the members that you think have best shown that they know these topics and beyond, and can share (and has done so) with everyone at SPF.
Graphic Design Guru of the YearWhat makes a good graphic? What is color theory? What Font is used in the logo for Flickr? Wanna have a battle? These are the types of questions asked within the Graphics Forums. Whether it's helping to build a specific image, or just showing off a new tip they've learned, please nominate the members you think have best helped the members of SPF to develop their graphical skills.
The Dan Schulz Award for Web Design Guru of the YearThere is a lot more to a solid design than just the placement of images. Web design incorporates all the skills. You've got to know some graphics design, you've got to make CSS be able to at least hum if not sing, you've got to be able to know when a p element is a better use than a div. You've got to know about accessibility and usability and balance. Please nominate the members you think have shown the best grasp of all these skills, and have been able to help others improve their own skills.
Program Your Site

Server Guru of the YearInternet (and intranet) servers take on two basic flavors: IIS and Apache, each in their multiple active versions. This "choice" opens a world of problems as people must choose one over the other AND configure it to meet their needs. Please nominate the members you feel have made the most helpful contribution to the discussion of Web Servers.
Apache Guru of the YearApache is the dominant web server for good reason: It's inexpensive (open source), it operates identically across multiple OS's (there are WAMP and LAMP programs built around Apache) and it's proven its power around the world many times over. Apache configuration isn't tricky but there are a few tweaks that must be made to the configuration file to allow you to setup your test server (or manage a production server). Apache's core features allow webmasters plenty of creative manipulation yet using Apache's .htaccess (configuration by directory) files, even further tweaking is possible and the gains can be trememdous!

SEO Guru of the YearOne of our most popular forums of all - both for the legitimate and the not so legitimate.

If someone has caught your eye by handing out good advice, handy tips or is just a generally welcoming and knowledgeable presence around the place, then please make sure you nominate them.

If there is anyone lurking around that has outstanding knowledge when it comes to the business side of web development, then they deserve a nomination in this category.

Great post camisa!
The idea is that they have a lot less miles on their arms when they start pro careers. The downside (in addition to the stretching out that's referenced elsewhere in the thread) is that many of these guys had even less of an occasion to bother with developing offspeed stuff of the kind one needs to be a consistently successful big-league starter, so it's an added element of risk.
Players, fans share thrills
Dayton crowd applauds Reds stars, who appreciate their days as Dragons.
By David DiCenzo
Contributing Writer
Sunday, April 05, 2009
DAYTON The familiar smells of summer waft through Fifth Third Field. Pizza. Hot dogs. Beer.
But it's batting practice that has fans buzzing. When second-year Red Joey Votto takes his cuts, he hits a towering shot that easily clears the 402-foot sign in right-center field. The ball caroms off a rail and falls to the concrete. Many members of the red-clad crowd on the lawn scramble for the souvenir.
The day is already memorable for thousands of fans eager to watch Cincinnati's present and future crop of stars.
"It's really neat," said 29-year-old Batavia resident Christy Holcombe, decked out in a Reds T-shirt with matching necklace. "To see the future players against the current players, some of the prospects coming up through the farm system, it's going to be amazing to see them play."
A serious fan, Holcombe is carrying a folder with a sampling of the approximately 2,500 photos she shot last season.
"This is my condensed version so I can get them signed," Holcombe said, adding that Bronson Arroyo is her favorite Red.
Friends Zach Balsinger, 12, and Daniel Gnau, 11, get a close-up look at BP from a temporary seat in the second row, down the first-base line. It was a long winter for the pair from Centerville and Gnau in particular is pumped with the new season just days away.
"I'm ready," he said.
Balsinger attended about five Reds' games last season, but being able to see his team close to home is meaningful, especially because of the familiar faces of former Dragons like Jay Bruce and Homer Bailey.
"It sure beats the drive down to Cincinnati," Balsinger said. "It's great to see the old Dragons because we've had season tickets since the first year."
Hours before the game, Bruce and Votto recalled their time playing at Fifth Third Field.
"This was a big stepping stone for me here in Dayton," Bruce said. "I have a lot of great memories. I was telling guys on the way here, this place is amazing to play (in) as a minor league baseball player."
"I don't think I've ever played for a team that had such a great fan base," Votto said. "Diehard fans."
Those diehards also gave a rousing ovation to Cincinnati legends Eric Davis and Ken Griffey Sr., honorary coaches for the futures team. Longtime Reds' supporter Chad Hall, 35, said it was a treat to see Griffey throwing BP.
"Where else can you see these stars in a stadium so close?" said the New London resident, alongside his 5-year-old son Caleb, who was seeing the Reds for the first time.
"It makes for a great day."
Reds defeat minor-league stars 9-6 in Futures game
Former Dragons on both teams provide fans with home runs and plenty of hits and memories.
By Marc Katz
Staff Writer
Sunday, April 05, 2009
DAYTON Exhibition games are played for the memories, not necessarily the final score.
And there were plenty of memories at Fifth Third Field Saturday afternoon, April 4, when the parent Cincinnati Reds beat their best minor-leaguers 9-6 in a Futures game attended by 8,956 fans under cool but sunny skies.
Four homers were hit by former Dayton Dragons, two for the Reds (Edwin Encarnacion and Luis Bolivar) and two by the Futures (Chris Valaika and Todd Frazier).
The homers by Encarnacion and Boilvar (he'll open the season with Class AAA Louisville) hit the batter's-eye screen in dead center field, while Frazier's two-run blast cleared the left-field concession stand.
"My wife and family were here to see it," said Bolivar, who lives in Vandalia. "I feel pretty good right now."
Valaika's homer accounted for three runs as the Futures scored five times in the eighth.
"It's nice to do that in front of the hometown fans," said Valaika, who played for the Dragons in 2007. "And it's nice playing against the big club."
Frazier also was complimentary.
"If I could play here every day of the week, I'd do it," said Frazier, who was here for the final week of 2007 and 30 games last season. Valaika is scheduled to begin this season at Class AAA Louisville, while Frazier will begin at Class AA Carolina.
Starting Futures shortstop Zack Cozart matched Frazier with three hits, and 11 former Dragons in all from both sides collected hits.
Joey Votto and Jay Bruce were the biggest names in the Reds lineup as former Dragons, and Votto used his first at-bat to knock in a run with a double off the left-field wall in the first.
Twelve former Dragons in all made it into the lineup for the Reds, including Votto, Bruce, Encarnacion, outfielder Chris Dickerson and starting pitcher Johnny Cueto, all expected to be on the roster for Opening Day on Monday. Infielders Paul Janish and Adam Rosales also played, and at least one of them possibly both will be with the team on Opening Day. Pitchers Robert Manuel, Carlos Fisher and Pedro Viola also played.
Chris Valaika, the Reds' minor league player of the year in 2008, hit a three-run homer and Todd Frazier had a two-run shot for the Futures team.
"I saw some good things from them," Baker said. "I saw some good arms, quick bats and some power. This organization is going places."
Stewart was very impressive. He was hitting 94 pretty consistently and throwing a great slider. When he gets a little better command of that slider...
The talk of Stewart being converted to a starter has been going on for a while. He has not been able to repeat the same velocity on back-to-back days. On the second day, he is down a few miles an hour. That is the reason for the consideration.
I thought Stewart was the most impressive player on the Futures Team, although Frazier's home run was something to see. Frazier did butcher a fly ball in left. I have been saying for a while, he is going to need some time out there. He had the one base running mistake. On the other hand, he did a great job of going from first to third on a single to right center in the second that most players, even faster players, would not have done, simply because Frazier is so instinctive on the bases.
Of all the relievers on the field yesterday, I think Stewart easily has the highest ceiling. It was my first time seeing him pitch live, and he did more than enough to live up to the hype.
Nice report, CDG.
"Bring on Rod Stupid!"
Stewarts stuff was easily the most impressive from the relievers, but Carlos Fisher really impressed me as well. I really like his stuff.
Zach Stewart's dad said the plan was to start Stewart at Double-A, but that was two months ago and things could have changed by now. His dad made this post over on Redlegs Baseball back in January:
http://redlegsbaseball.blogspot.com/...h-stewart.htmlZach has not been told anything about where he will be this season, but his agent met with the Reds at the winter meetings and they told him that their plans were for Zach to start at Double-A unless he was to have a bad spring training. In that case he would start back in Sarasota at high-A.
For those who haven't seen it yet, Doug has a ton of videos and pictures from the Future Stars game up on his website. Check it out:

HTC EVO 3D ReviewHTC EVO 3D
Much like some of its contemporaries, the HTC EVO 3D features an equipped 1.2GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8660 processor with 1GB of RAM and an Adreno 220 GPU. Naturally, the higher than normal RAM amount is needed for the various 3D capabilities of the handset – thus, keeping things consistent in speed without sacrificing performance. And in all honesty, the handset executes effortlessly with little issues regarding responsiveness and speed. Even with a graphically intensive live wallpaper activated, the HTC EVO 3D is still able to casually navigate its homescreens – as nifty looking transition effects are used. Quickly running a couple of benchmark tests on the handset out of the box, it's able to produce some admirable results – albeit, they're not earth breaking.
In terms of platform experience, it's identical to what we've seen already with the HTC Sensation 4G, which is Sense 3.0 running on top of Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread. In fact, HTC Sense 3.0 isn't anything revolutionary, instead offering multiple improvements, not least of all in the form of an entirely redrawn UI and an intelligent lock screen.
The redrawn UI sits on top of Gingerbread and carries the premium feel from the construction across to the interface. From a design perspective, HTC Sense 3.0 is so considered, elegant and cohesive, that it's on another level to any custom UI we've seen. Widgets are pin sharp and there are some really attractive new ones, such as the photo grid (gallery) widget, a huge improvement over the static photo-frame. The 7 homescreens are also now on a revolving carousel system, so the last leads straight back to the first, and all with some rather slick SPB like carousel visuals in the process. If you'd like a comprehensive look at other aspects of Sense 3.0, you can read more about it in our HTC Sensation 4G review.
Without a doubt, HTC Sense is by far one of the best customized Android experiences out there, but we're actually expecting something more seeing that this is the HTC EVO 3D we're talking about. Do you read the 3D in that name? Well, it would've been nice if HTC concocted some sort of Sense 3D interface to show off the handset's prominent feature, but alas, we're simply given the usual assortment. Even if they can't simply convert Sense into 3D, it would've been nice to have some sort of app that brings up a separate 3D interface of some sort.
Camera and Multimedia:
Two 5-megapixel auto-focus cameras with dual LED flash sit pretty on the rear side of the HTC EVO 3D, which of course, provides the handset the ability to capture 3D photos and videos. The interface of the camera is HTC's standard, with a few more special effects and tweaks under the hood. When shooting 2D stills, it takes roughly 3 seconds to actually take the shot, save it, and jump back in to take another one. However, the time doubles to 6 seconds when snapping 3D photos. Although the 3D display is active when capturing 3D content, it's rather to hard see the effect while attempting to capture the shot – but at least it's prominent when previewing it later on.
Unfortunately, nothing has changed in terms of 2D image quality with the HTC EVO 3D – though, we're given a lower 5-megapixel shooter versus the EVO 4G's larger 8-megapixel one. Despite the drop, image quality is nonetheless the same with its average looking results. Generally producing soft toned details and cooler color production with images outdoors, things dramatically take a drop with low lighting shots since they're grainy, filled with digital noise, and produce distorted looking colors. Luckily, it manages to do very well with macro shots. At the same time, its dual-LED flash is able to lighten up the environment, but its potency is only evident when capturing subjects that are 5 feet away at the most.
3D photos, but rather, we focus our attention more on how well it brings forth that perception of depth. Rightfully so, it hits the mark dead on with its results, but there are some mechanics behind it to profoundly produce its intense 3D effects. Specifically, you'll get the most effect when taking subjects that are a few feet away, with additional subjects in the background littered around. However, you can kiss taking macro shots in 3D seeing that it ends up looking like a mirrored image.
HTC EVO 3D Sample images in 3D mode
Irritating to say the least, it's rather bewildering to find the HTC EVO 3D failing to cough up even some minutely decent looking high-definition videos. Shooting 720p videos at the smooth rate of 29 frames per second, it's actually one of the positive things going for, seeing that the rest is just absolutely garish. Actually, we're presented with abysmal looking details and an abundance of artifacting when panning to make the overall result far from being regarded as high-definition.
HTC EVO 3D Sample Video:
HTC EVO 3D Sample Video in 3D:
Music playback is through HTC's music app which delivers a very standard UI, though the overall music experience is great. Much like what we saw with the Sensation 4G, audio quality with the EVO 3D's speaker is neutral in tone – though, it doesn't sound strained at the loudest setting. Granted that it offers SRS enhancement, it does add just a tiny bit of power to its output, but it still doesn't come off as commanding.
Knowing that a dual-core processor is tucked inside of it, the HTC EVO 3D is more than capable of playing a test video of ours encoded in MPEG-4 1920 x 1080 resolution. Everything comes to life with its brilliant looking Super LCD display, but thanks to its screen size, it's more than enjoyable on so many levels. However, it's worth knowing that the handset omits a kickstand – meaning, you'll need either to hold it or prop it on something to watch videos comfortably.
Relying on HTC's Watch service, The Green Hornet movie in 3D is packaged along with the device, which shows how enjoyable it is to watch 3D videos on the go. Highlighting all of the best aspects of 3D video watching, the experience is actually the same when viewing 3D videos shot with the smartphone. Even though we can't gauge its actual level of detail, it's pretty much overlooked in favor of the level of depth presented to us with its results.
The gallery is HTC's standard gridded system, with some cool perks such as wireless network printing as well. Interaction with images is very predictable with pinch to zoom being silky smooth and images rendering instantly while looking great on the screen. Moreover, content taken in 3D are notated with the "3D" tag within the gallery app.
Lastly, using an optional MHL adapter that's plugged into the handset's microUSB port, we're able to watch 1080p videos stored on the handset directly on a high-definition television set. Not only that, but you can get a mirrored experience as well, which brings the handset's entire platform experience onto the big screen.
Preloaded with an 8GB microSD card, it's definitely something nice that complements the handset's built-in 1GB of memory. Likewise, if the 8GB card isn't sufficient enough, you can always swap it with cards up to 32GB in capacity.

Wow, 4 objective cons gets a score of 9.
18. vette21man (Posts: 351; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
I think you mean "sub"jective. And yes, I think a mobile device should have good battery life and viewing angles. It's a great phone to get a 9/10, but I believe the full point off is warranted. The Galaxy S II lasted ~60 hours in their medium use tests, so it's not like it can't be done with today's tech.
30. megadirk (unregistered)
I just don't see how only 1 point was taken off, "less than ideal battery life" should warrant 1 point subtracted just for that. At this point battery life shouldn't be listed in the "Con" category (not to mention HD video and viewing angles) on any manufacturers flagship device. Embarrassment is all they should feel if they still can't get this right so far into the game.
57. vette21man (Posts: 351; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
I would give you 2 thumbs up if I could.

also, the guys voice reminds me of Professor Frink of the Simpsons
4. Ruh (unregistered)
I'm not sure what people want in battery life. 7 hours of continuous talk and 10hr normal use seem great to me. Will definately be an improvement over my TP2 that i've had for almost two years.
22. vette21man (Posts: 351; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
I think "10hr normal use" needs to be more tightly defined. If this is listening to music, occasional email and facebook checking, texting, snapping a few photos, and playing a few games to pass the time, then my iPhone 4 has about 30hr of "normal use." It has probably 10hr of very heavy use. These are overall MOBILE devices, and should therefore allow you to be free from an electrical outlet for many hours without fear of battery death.
The 3D is a neat feature, but if it will kill my battery with 10hr of normal use, this tech is not meant for your phone, but a stand-alone device with a larger battery.
5. AndroidTroll (Posts: 359; Member since: 05 Mar 2011)
For once I think this was actually a fair review. I like that they enjoyed the 3D capabilities and appreciated that the price is a true bargain. But most of all, I love that not once was the iPhone 4 mentioned!
I can't wait to get this phone! Can someone please remind me how the Premiere special works to get one early on June 21st? Do you call Telesales or go into a store? Details would be appreciated. Thanks.
6. Su-Rio (Posts: 51; Member since: 05 May 2011)
omg, imagine when a new slim battery with a higher capacity releases for this phone... it'd be like 1900 mah, and add hours to phone use
7. Hallucinator (Posts: 387; Member since: 24 May 2010)
As an Iphone user, if this phone was coming to Verizon I would be all over it. Looks fantastic!!!!
8. Megatron (unregistered)
As an iPhone 3GS user looking to switch this year, I am really looking forward to getting this phone. IMHO, 2 of the cons listed are not cons for me.
I do not like wide viewing angles on my phone, I prefer privacy, as long as i can share photos with 1 or 2 other people I'm fine. It's got HDMI functionality if I want to share with more.
I don't care that it dosn't have a 3D UI. The reason they didn't do this is because it would be too straining on the battery and the user's eyes (as mentioned at CTIA 2011) and I agree. Besides, 3D is a bonus feature, new to phones. If this were a 2D only phone, that would not be listed as a con.
I am a power user, and 7 hours talk time/10 hours normal use will be fine with me, of course battery life could always be better, but I currently charge my iPhone 3GS 2 to 3 times a work day, I can't wait to be able to use a spare battery in emergency situations.

"I prefer privacy" is kind of fooling yourself into thinking that viewing angles don't matter. True that coming from a iPhone 3GS you will probably be impressed with the viewing angle. Just don't look at an iPhone 4, Droid X2, or Super AMOLED Plus screen before buying, and you will be just fine.
And as a "power user," you may want to look elsewhere, unless you plan on buying 2 or 3 spare batteries, but it sounds like you are comfortable charging 2 to 3 times a day any way.

Don't worry, I'm not fooling myself with the "prefer privacy" comment. The 3GS's viewing angle is more than enough for me and the people I show pictures to, so if what you say is true, then this will be more than enough of a viewing angle for me.
As far as battery life is concerned, I owned a Blackjack before the 3GS. The battery life on that phone was so bad, they provided a spare battery standard with the phone. The iPhone would last just about a day on my light to normal days, but lately AT&T's service in my building at work has gotten worse and my phone spends most of its day searching, wasting battery power, so I normally leave it plugged in at my desk now. Nevermind that I've been sitting in the same spot for the past year and a half. I would think it is my phone, but other people with AT&T have reported the same issues. While people with Sprint are getting full 4G coverage.

I forgot to mention that I have tried the iPhone 4 and I'll admit I like the contrast levels on the Super AMOLED Plus screens, but I wasn't impressed by viewing angles.
40. vette21man (Posts: 351; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
Sorry if all ya'll thought I was trolling, just trying to argue that I don't know anyone who looks at a phone screen and says, "It's a nice display, but I wish the viewing angles were worse." That's like saying, "Well it's a nice processor, but I wish it were slower."
I'm not convinced you thumbs-downers have actually seen the "Plus" version of the Super AMOLED displays. Not only does the "Plus" offer a better "perceived" resolution, but they have the best viewing angles of any display (see link below). I'm an iPhone 4 owner, and I can admit when other companies have better features. Seriously look at a Droid X2 vs the EVO 3D or Sensation (who all use Super LCD), the Droid X2 has considerably better viewing angles and more accurate colors.
43. megatron (unregistered)
If you have ever dealt with sensitive materials or people constantly trying to look over your shoulder when it is none of their business then you would know what I mean. There has never been a time where I thought, "If I could only see what was on my phone by looking at it from a 10 degree angle..." I know I'm not like everyone, but I don't see why someone would spend any considerable amount of time looking at their phone any other way than almost head on. Sure, maybe it's laying on the desk and it beeps and you look to see who the message is from or something like that. But I'm never going to have the need to see my phone from an extreme angle for any messureable amount of time.
You say asking for a narrow viewing angle is like getting a faster processor but asking for it to be slower. I don't agree. To me, asking for the widest viewing angle possible is like saying, "Hey world look at me! LOOK AT ME! See all my information! I don't care if you can see my credit card number or anything else, just look at me!"
47. vette21man (Posts: 351; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
I think I just realized we may be talking about 2 different things.
I am talking about accurate color reproduction and consistent brightness levels when I say "viewing angles." It sounds like you are more concerned about privacy in viewing angles. I could still read your credit card info from a screen with crappy viewing angles, I just wouldn't see it in crisp contrast, color or desired brightness. If you truly want privacy, then purchase a privacy-shade screen protector. My point of our entire argument is that a better quality display has many things: brightness, color reproduction, resolution, size, and viewing angles. No mobile display manufacturer is ever going to produce a screen and market it as "narrow viewing angles for privacy."
48. megatron (Posts: 8; Member since: 21 Jun 2011)
Agreed, but I also care about color reproduction, resolution, size, and brightness from various angles. But I still don't see the importance of wide viewing angles on a phone, at least not to the extreme, and agreed, if I want your information, I'm going to get it one way or the other. Just saying, I don't see why some reviews give cons for viewing angles if you can't see the screen clearly from less than a 15 degree angle. I want to know what people are doing looking at their phones from that angle for long periods of time.
50. vette21man (Posts: 351; Member since: 06 Apr 2011)
Looks like you're registered now. :-)
It's nice to have good viewing angles when:
- Sharing screen for videos/pictures/web on the go
- Tilting screen away from direct sunlight
- Have same color/brightness/quality when in landscape (rotated)
- Don't have to have the device perfectly perpendicular to face when watching videos/pics (i.e., there are many "sweet spots", rather than just perfectly straight on)
- And gol darn it, it's just so beautiful.
I understand your concerns with privacy. I think we can be friends now. :-)
52. megatron (Posts: 8; Member since: 21 Jun 2011)
All that makes sense to me, and i can understand the "cool factor" of having a phone that can be seen clearly from any angle. Just in practical use, at least in my life, I have no need for extreme viewing angles.
I'm always up for a good debate, I never really thought you were trolling.
44. megatron (unregistered)
Btw, I have seen the Droid X2, and like I said before, I admit the contrast levels are impressive on those screens. The "Plus" made a real improvement. Also, I prefer screens I can turn the brightness down very low on and still see clearly. Right now on my desk I have twin Samsung widescreen monitors with the brightness turned down to 5 (out of 100).
63. jroc74 (Posts: 6019; Member since: 30 Dec 2010)
Yea...Super Amoled + is nice.
Thats always been a pro for Amoled screens since last year.
69. c2g1980 (unregistered)
Please give an example of when the viewing angle would be important on a handheld mobile device. My epic has good viewing angles so I put a screen protector that blurs the viewing angles on it. Can't imagine y any1 would want to hold their phone to the side or at an angle to view it.

Apple's R&D spending skyrockets 40% in fiscal 2012, still 2% of sales
0. phoneArena posted on 02 Nov 2012, 10:15
Apple is notorious for making very focused Research&Development decisions, which keeps this part of its costs times less than the competition like Google or Microsoft...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

How much of that went towards the Mini and figuring out how to make a 4" iPhone screen?
3. TheLibertine (Posts: 484; Member since: 15 Jan 2012)
Your irony is very appropriate here, lets hope 2013 will bring some really fresh fruit.
5. Topcat488 (Posts: 1396; Member since: 29 Sep 2012)
It's a good thing that Apple is spending on R&D again, because i'm thinking about getting that iphone 5S this summer... So don't be so hard on them my Android brothers. Waiting on the Note 3 also. Three cheers for Apple... HIP, HIP, HORRAY.
12. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
nothing like buying the same phone that they already have. the 5s will be nothing but a minor spec bump and a new feature.... maybe google maps will be the new feature lol
16. Aeires (unregistered)
Ultimately the iPhone doesn't have to make a single hardware change for the next three years. If they gradually revamp iOS, that's big enough of a change for people to keep buying it (providing they don't isolate users like W8 is).
14. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
Let's not forget Apple also has the iMac, MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Apple TV, and iPod lineup as well. We may focus on their phones and tabs, but they do have other things to spend money on too...The new Macs look great this year.
17. Aeires (unregistered)
Haven't forgotten. One is a new product (sorta), and the other has lived with the same screen size for 5 years. The Mac and iPod series have lived with variety for a long time, so that's not as big of a product shake up as the iPhone is.
24. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
R&D isn't just about coming up with new products. That money also goes into improving or advancing older products. I imagine the new MacBook Pros w/ Retina Display took a lot of R&D money as well as the iPod redesigns. Not to mention iMessage working for all Apple products. It's not just "Product Shake Up" money.
27. Aeires (unregistered)
I know, what you described was more of the Development side.
I never said there weren't products that didn't get updated, just some were bigger changes than others.
29. someones4 (Posts: 625; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
R&D? Or bribe for the USTPO?
2. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
The one thing I look forward to is that R&D being a bit more focused with each team working more closely with each other. iOS 7 needs a major overhaul. Almost like the 3.5" screen, I don't think Apple can afford another year of the same OS design. Can't wait to see what Jony comes up with. OSX is something I'd actually prefer to stay the same, but I imagine the look of it will be changed a bit.
What I do wonder is what we will se how of the new iPad and iPhone. I've always said that we are getting to the point where specs don't matter all that much...we know that iOS doesn't take that much power to run. But will they change the look and feel of the iPad or sink money into changing iOS instead.
At any rate, it should be an interesting year for Apple...
4. TheLibertine (Posts: 484; Member since: 15 Jan 2012)
I like your comments, quite reasonable and interesting points you always pick out.
9. jmoita2 (Posts: 930; Member since: 23 Dec 2011)
2% of sales? With what they charge for their products, I'm surprised it's that high...
6. xtremesv (Posts: 298; Member since: 21 Oct 2011)
Apple needs R&D badly. Those days when Apple"R&D" was limited to buy innovative startups or visit distinguished companies and get ideas from their development departments, are gone.
7. hung2900 (Posts: 965; Member since: 02 Mar 2012)
Compared to more than $40 billion of SS, it's so nothing
20. Hemlocke (unregistered)
Compared to the thousands of products they make, Apple's lineup is also nothing. Apple spends appropriately for the size of their lineup. Consider that their entire hardware lineup will fit on one standard 4"x8" table. Yes, it is only 2%, but their sales are unlike anyone else's, as are their profits. For such a small, concentrated lineup, they spend a ton of money.
8. MeoCao (unregistered)
Apple's R&D is vastly different from other companies: It is like scouting job to find oppotunities of easy steals. Remember how they stole Sony's idea for iPhone design? This does not require much investment does it?
30. quakan (Posts: 1398; Member since: 02 Mar 2011)
Look at you re-hashing false information. Project purple came BEFORE the Sony design for the billionth time.
10. InspectorGadget80 (unregistered)
How are they even spending that much money in their R&D research when their wasting money in the court rooms? Plus I don't see them anything innovating their making except copying GOOGLES GLASS with their crappy ipatch
11. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
maybe they are adding their court costs into their R&D bill. I dont see how it could be so high either. lol
You could design an ipad mini in 10 mins. Its the same boring design using 2 yr old parts. Not like they came up with anything new. The i5 just got a 0.5 inch sctretch.. nothing new there..
imma guess that they are using it in their Mac line or TV line.. lol
13. Reluctant_Human (Posts: 904; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
If they spent a little less on marketing and put it to R&D or legal for bogus law suits maybe they would have products worth the price tags they put on them
15. DFranch (Posts: 254; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
I'm sure their R&D expenditure pales in comparison to how much they spent on legal fees for BS lawsuits.
18. lyndon420 (Posts: 5002; Member since: 11 Jul 2012)
R&D? Yeah right. I call BS...apple sues everyone instead of developing a superior product.

wow you can predict the future. tell me what is instore for Android.. because the Nexus is going backwards?
28. DaNTRoN (Posts: 135; Member since: 23 Jul 2012)
Just reading through comments and was wondering, how is nexus going backward? I hope you don't say LTE. It better than pretty much any phone on the market and half their costs. And the tablet is well spec'ed as well and priced on low side. Both are better than their predecessors.
Unlike a few apple products. The official name of the new iPad is, iPad with retina display. Take into consideration that the "new" iPad had retina display and the new iPad is newer than the "new" iPad.
Plus, I would take an iPod touch or iPad with retina display, hell, even the "new" iPad over the mini
23. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10457; Member since: 14 May 2012)
They already have with that buggy iOS 6 and scratch magnet iPhone 5.

5 Years Ago: Pink Floyd's Richard Wright Dies
Richard Wright, in the time just before his passing in 2008, was in the midst of something of a comeback alongside his Pink Floyd bandmate David Gilmour.
Though serving as a founding member of the legendary psych-rock outfit — and a key element of its musical DNA as a spacious, enveloping keyboardist and singer — Wright had eventually fallen out of favor with '70s-era mastermind Roger Waters. He barely contributed on 1979's 'The Wall' before being ousted prior to 1983's 'The Final Cut.' By the time a retooled Pink Floyd gathered for 1987's 'Momentary Lapse of Reason,' Wright was back in the band, but still in a reduced role. It wouldn't be until 1994's 'Division Bell' that the keyboardist would finally return to full membership in the now Gilmour-led Pink Floyd.
That rekindled relationship with Gilmour would continue right up until Wright's 2008 death from cancer at age 65. Just one week later, Gilmour's Floyd-filled 'Live in Gdansk' project — focusing on the guitarist's most recent tour with Wright — would appear. In many ways, that final collaboration stood as a tribute to Wright, showcasing key moments like 1967's 'Astonomy Domine' (which he co-wrote with original Pink Floyd frontman Syd Barrett), 1971's 'Echoes' and 1973's 'Time' (both brilliant collaborative moments between the keyboardist and Gilmour), 1975's 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond' (with its diaphanous synth interludes) and 1994's 'Wearing the Inside Out' (from Floyd's final studio effort).
With Pink Floyd, Wright had also co-written and/or sang lead on songs like 'Interstellar Overdrive,' 'Us and Them,' 'One of These Days,' 'See-Saw,' 'The Great Gig in the Sky,' 'Matilda Mother,' among others. He's remembered for solo albums like 1978's 'Wet Dream' and 1996's 'Broken China,' and was said to have been at work on a new project at the time of his death, though those recordings have yet to surface.

Get the Recipe
Imagine a Venn diagram with two overlapping circles. The first circle is coffee cake; the second, a fruit crumble. In the space between the circles you'll find buckles.
Making a buckle is easy. First you make a simple coffee cake batter, then you fold in a good amount of fruit. Next, pour the batter into a pan and sprinkle over a swath of buttery crumble topping. The name comes from the fact that as the dish bakes, the batter sinks (or "buckles") over the fruit.
Living in California, we just saw the season's first strawberries arrive at the market. They weren't especially sweet (I'd give it a week or two for them to be best eaten out of hand) so I decided to use them in a light dessert. Somewhere between a cake and a crumble, the buckle was the perfect choice. The berry flavor is really lovely against the lightly sweet vanilla cake and the gingery crumb topping.

Pharmacy and Medications
Switched from Crestor to Lovastatin
switched to lovastatin from crestor......now my blood pressure is 160/90 is it because of change
Thank you for contacting Net Wellness. The medication Crestor® (rosuvastatin) and Mevacor ® (lovastatin) are in the family of statins. Statins are a class of medications that are used to lower your cholesterol. Your body needs some cholesterol to work properly, but too much in your blood can stick to the walls of your arteries and cause a narrowing or blocking like a clogged drain. Statins lower bad cholesterol levels and raise good cholesterol levels and can slow the formation of plaques in your arteries. Their side effects are very similar with little differences. Rosuvastatin can also be used for hyperlipoproteinemia, atherosclerosis, hypertriglyceridemia, metabolic syndrome, prophylaxis of venous thromboembolism and acute coronary syndrome.
Elevated blood pressure is not a side effect of both medication, and rosuvastatin does not have any effect on blood pressure once it is discontinued. Depending on other medications that you may be already prescribed, there may be a drug-drug interaction that I am not able to identify causing an elevation in blood pressure. If you have any other medications that you take, please consult your local pharmacist for any possible interactions. If you need immediate information, your local pharmacist may be in the best position to assist you.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 12/4/2013 (1591 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Alberta Twitter sensation Kelly Oxford's debut book, a collection of autobiographical essays, is broadly about taking risks and embracing the imperfection in life.
"A lot of my life sounds like a lie because ... I do a lot of weird and stupid things," she tells her children in the book's introduction.
Far from being unbelievable, though, most of the situations the essays describe are relatively mundane.
As a pre-teen in Edmonton she takes a job as a dishwasher for a day; hijinks ensue. As a 17-year-old she flies to Los Angeles to find a movie star; hijinks ensue. She takes her family to the zoo or Disneyland; more hijinks.
A stay-at-home mom of three, Oxford was plucked from obscurity in Calgary in 2010 in the manner of American Justin Halpern of Sh*t My Dad Says fame.
Her clever observations on Twitter drew hundreds of thousands of followers, attracting the attention of book publishers and Hollywood producers. She and her family have since relocated to Los Angeles, where she is writing TV and movie scripts.
The risks Oxford takes in Everything Is Perfect When You're a Liar are generally small. In every anecdote she has a well-padded safety net behind the scenes.
"Dad gave me a hundred dollars, which doubled my available spending money," she writes about her trip to L.A. "As far as I knew, that was plenty; I'd never paid for anything in my life."
And each tale wraps agreeably for Oxford, with few consequences or repercussions. Stories end with her leaving the scene, driving home, flying away, passing by. If she's learned anything from her adventures, the lessons are vague.
With the stakes so low, the book relies on Oxford's wit and storytelling ability. If you're a fan of her tweets, you already know she can craft a bright, pithy one-liner: "I'm the Helen Keller of body language. If Woody Allen and I had dinner, we wouldn't even have to open our mouths."
But an essay is more than a collection of one-liners, and Oxford doesn't quite pull it off.
The book's best writing is that in which she puts aside the biting quips and exposes herself. An essay in which she recounts internships at a brain-injury clinic and seniors' home, for example, is honest and revealing with an edge of humour that keeps it from being syrupy.
The problem? There's not enough of that writing; it's lost among the wisecracks and shenanigans.
Reading the book feels a bit like being cornered at a cocktail party by a garrulous woman who's spent all day cooped up indoors.
At first you're drawn in by her vivacity, laughing along and urging her to go on. But before long, you find yourself glancing surreptitiously at your watch, nodding and smiling, while inching your way toward the door.

I have a clean 6'4" Lost shark five fin double bump rounded squash for sale. It probably has less than 10 sessions on it. I got it custom through ocean hut two summers ago. Dakine Bruce irons trac pad included. Pictures and full dims tonight. $375
I would also be willing to throw in a second 6'5 poly shark tri for free if that helps. This board has multiple dings but all are repaired and the board is water tight. A good choice for transitioning to a short board or a loaner board.
Will throw in your choice of Kinetic Racing Occy tri set or FCS MR tf-x tri set and a pair of q-1000 rears with either.
