      Browned toast and potatoes are 'potential cancer risk', say food scientists
      http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-38680622

      If that were the case, a large majority of the southeast would be dead and/or dying of cancer... Especially those folks that attend a traditional Southern Baptist Church. [Nary a single after church shindig I remember did not come with toast and taters in some form or another].

            The biggest news in this corner of the world is that the FALCONS ARE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!

                    Yes, they are. And apparently, they are sportsing harder and playing sportsball better than most of the other teams.

                    Who are the Falcons sportsing against in the Super Bowl?

                            Any other year when the Pats are not in it. This one is important in a lot of ways.

                                Their descriptions of the problems seem plausible. We'll see if this puts them back in the good graces of consumers. I for one and looking forward to the Note 8... Codename: Fire Extinguisher, ha ha.

                                  I'm probably going to go with an iPhone for my upgrade tbh. I made that decision before any of this happened though.

                                    My phone is still in relatively good shape and works decently. My battery is starting to go though. (Note 4 ~2 years old, I think).

                                      Gotta feel a little bad for them. Regardless, they already lost my business after years of being Samsung loyal. 80% of my phone choice is dependent on removable battery, headphone jack, and SD card slot. Might go LG next round - the V20 looks like a pretty fun phone to nerd out on.

                                            I too was worried about this, but I haven't had a real issue of it with my Nexus 6P. I use a portable power pack, problem solved.
