Samsung announces EK-GC100 Galaxy Camera: Offers Jelly Bean and HSPA+ on a point and shoot

When Samsung announced the Galaxy Note II at IFA three days ago, it was not the only thing they unveiled. Samsung also unveiled their brand new Galaxy Camera. This is a brand new point and shoot camera that runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, has a 4.8 inch 1,280 x 720 HD display, and HSPA+ 3G and "4G" connectivity. Samsung is not the first company to release an Android camera because Nikon has already released their Coolpix S800c, but this looks like a much nicer camera. The Galaxy camera has a very nice spec list with its 4.8 inch 1,280 x 720 touch screen display, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, with the Touch Wiz skin, a 1.4GHZ quad-core processor, a 16 megapixel f/2.8-5.9 23-480mm lens, 21x zoom, a 1/2.33 inch BSI CMOS sensor, a pop-up LED flash, 3G/"4G" HSPA+ connectivity, a micro-SIM slot, a microSD card slot, WiFi connectivity, a 1,650 MAH battery, and it comes in black and white. This camera also has a very nice design with its many curves, comfortable looking hand grip, and its silver-clad buttons.The Galaxy Camera does not have too many camera features that will make it stand out from the crowd, but the fact that it runs Android 4.1 will make it really easy to use and for people to post their pictures to social networks like Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc. The HSPA+ built into the camera will make it even easier to post your pictures on the go, and it could let you check any of your internet-needy services (email, social neworks, etc.). Since the Galaxy Camera runs Jelly Bean, you also get the Google Play Store to download any Android app you desire. Overall, this looks like a nice camera that will bring many neat features with its Android interface but it will probably not be for anybody looking for the best camera on the market.

Review: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

It's 7:15 at night. The sun has been below the horizon for quite some time, but it is not yet my bedtime. I go to the cashier and ask her if they are showing my movie. She gives me a puzzled look, checks the queue, and luckily finds the tickets I am looking for. After asking my age she assures me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to fear. I then pass through the doors and embark on a journey I have been waiting for more than a decade to begin. Back in 2004 Nickelodeon, Stephen Hillenburg, & company released the very first feature film of the SpongeBob Squarepants franchise: The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie . The cartoon had been around for less than five years at the time, and many people did not expect much from its box office release. However, it did do very well for a television cartoon movie grossing more than $32 million opening weekend and receiving average scores of 66/100. This might sound mediocre compared to Oscar winning films, but this is incredib...

The Pursuit of Being Trash, with the Confederate Flag

Racial tensions have been high in the United States for awhile now, and in some areas, very similar to how they were during the 1960's Civil Rights movement. As a result, many problems have been exposed. Most recently, there was the horrible slaughtering of nine innocent churchgoers in Charleston, South Carolina. This was without a doubt a horrible, racially motivated event that blatantly showed once again how far America has to go to completely eradicate racism. Not only did this show how racism is still thriving in our country, it also sparked a debate over one of this country’s most racist symbols ever made: the Confederate flag. Everyone is arguing over the flag, but what is the actual argument? Right now, the Confederate flag is flying over the South Carolina capitol building and is currently apart of many states’ flags. Even though the Confederate States of America dissolved almost 150 years ago, they still felt the need to fly the flag. There are states that do not wave...

A New Leaf

Hello everybody; it's been a while. With school, work, and my extracurricular activities, I haven't had as much time as I would have wanted to spend writing. In the two years since I've last posted, I was vice president, president, and varsity captain for my high school's Academic Decathlon team, went to the California state Academic Decathlon competition twice, was a student commissioner for my city's Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, a speech coach for Chinese students learning English, earned my Eagle Scout rank, and was accepted into my dream school, the University of California San Diego. With that in mind, I'm also about to graduate high school. I wasn't the speaker that my high school teachers were looking for as graduation speaker, but I thought it would be remiss if I did not say anything. My original speech would seem a bit out of context as an article, so this is a slightly abridged version. "Throughout my high school career, this...
