Last year, we linked up to the story from the Detroit Free Press of how former Detroit Red Wings #1 Draft Pick, Joe Murphy, was homeless in Canada.

A year later, Murphy is back in the same situation and perhaps now using drugs, too.

Samsung does a 180 on something it had mocked Apple for doing…..

NEW YORK (AP) – Ever since Apple decided to ditch the headphone jack in their iPhones, Samsung has been trolling its rival for doing so.

Now, it’s following it. Samsung says when its Galaxy Note 10 comes out it won’t have a headphone jack, either. So

how is Samsung trying to spin the removal of the headphone jack? It says it decided to ditch the jack because many

people are using wireless headphones these days.

Another reversal for Samsung has to do with the size of one of its new models. In addition to releasing a larger Note

10 Plus, it is introducing a smaller version of its Note, for people who think smartphones have gotten just too darn big.
