Recent Posts Without Featured (Sticky) Posts

Is there a way to show only the 5 most recent posts BUT leave out of this loop any ‘sticky’ or featured posts? I’m at a loss. I can’t figure out what to put in my “<?php query_posts” section. Here is my current script:

<!-- Begin New Articles -->
<h3 class="widget-title">What's New</h3>
<?php if (is_home()) : ?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
<?php query_posts("showposts=5"); // show one latest post only ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<div id="recentarticleslist_images">
<div class="recentarticleslist_images_pic"><?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
					the_post_thumbnail( 'thumbnail' );
				} ?></div>
<div class="recentarticleslist_images_title">   <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title=""><?php the_title(); ?></a></div>
<div class="recentarticleslist_images_date"><?php the_time( __( 'F jS, Y', 'linen' ) ); ?></div>

</div>	

<?php endwhile; ?><?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?><!-- End New Articles -->
