Midrange phones are more competitive than ever, and their performance and battery life make us wonder why we spend $1,000+ on flagship devices. Phones under $500 used to include drab displays, awful build quality, and hardly any software support. But recently, even budget devices have featured OLED displays and years of software support. With so many high-quality options close in price, even a small discount can make a big difference.

In fact, it seems that more similarities exist between the Galaxy F14 4G and Galaxy A05s than the Galaxy F14 4G and Galaxy F14.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter.

I don't know about you, but where I'm at... it's still sooooo hot. The country as a whole has been under a huge heat wave this past week and today is no exception! I will say though, that we are lucky to have a dry heat instead of a humid heat. At least I don't feel like I'm drowning and on fire at the same time.
