It's almost impossible to do this, but when I assemble a Top 10 list, I like to imagine myself a decade from now, reflecting back on the year that was. Which 2011 films will really stick out in my mind? Which are the ones that will rise to the status of all-times favorites, warrant repeated viewings, permanently lodge themselves in my cinematic soul? (To be honest, it's an interesting—and humbling— exercise to look back at my Top 10 lists from years past. . .some of the films I was so passionate about at the time, I can barely remember.) So what follows is my best guess of the films that will stick with me forever.
At the very least, they stirred the hell out of me this year.
1. Moneyball – A buddy film, a baseball film, but mostly a story about the courage to spurn conventional wisdom and take personal and professional risks. Brad Pitt gives his best performance ever as Billy Beane, an alpha male and baseball lifer, whose armor of confidence has been ever-so-slightly dinged by disappointment and regret. Jonah Hill is the brainy sidekick who idolizes and ultimately saves him. Director Bennet Miller and co. get all the baseball details right. You can practically smell the chew and the pine tar.
2. Hugo – Martin Scorsese makes a 3D film and shows the world how it's done (thus making him the greatest superhero of them all). His film about a little boy (Asa Butterfield) who lives in the bowels of a Parisian train station, circa 1920—is bursting at the seams with imagination, spectacle, and visual wit. The little boy is solving two interconnected mysteries: That of an automaton left behind by his deceased father and that of a bitter toy maker (Ben Kingsley) who works at the station. This is Scorsese's Cinema Paradiso, his love-letter to film, done with a master's eye and a passionate precision. Ultimately, Scorsese is able to celebrate the history of film while adding to own considerable cinematic legacy.
3. The Artist - It may seem astonishing that a black-and-white silent film, made by a French director with a nearly unpronounceable last name (Michel Hazanavicius) and starring two French actors that no one in the U.S. has ever heard of (Jean Dujardin and Bérénice Bejo) would be the frontrunner to win Best Picture at this year's Oscars. To which I say: See the film. Because, truly, once you see The Artist, it will all be clear. It's made with such visual élan, such an obvious love for the medium, such joie, such wit—it's about as irresistible as cinema gets.
4. The Help –I thought the book was one of the great populist works of entertainment of the last decade—juicy, hilarious, morally satisfying—and felt that Tate Taylor's film replicated many of its specific joys. It also featured fierce, fabulous, and career-changing performances by the likes of Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Jessica Chastain and Emma Stone. So the controversy that surrounded the film somewhat baffled me: This was not a story of a white woman swooping in to save her helpless servants. It was a celebration of collaboration, of the strength and sisterhood of women—of all colors. Did the naysayers not see the same film I did?
5. Bridesmaids- The funniest film of the year—by a wide margin. Among its many pleasures, it finally gave Kristen Wiig a proper vehicle for her outsized talent (she also co-wrote the script). As 30something, marginally employed, unlucky-in-love Annie, Wiig is a revelation, as comfortable with a subtle gesture as she is with a broadly comedic one. She never panders for the audience's affection—there's no adorable clumsiness, no chin quivering crying jags, no scenes trying on hats fetchingly in front of a mirror. In fact, true to her name, she spends much of the film completely wigging out. And in its own modest way, Bridesmaids is actually pretty groundbreaking. After all, how many raunchy, rollicking female buddy films have we seen in the last five years? (I'll save you a trip to imdb.com. The answer is none.) Turns out, when it comes to low-brow humor, anything boys can do, girls can do grosser.
6. Like Crazy – An achingly tender, heartbreaking, funny, sad, frustrating look at first love that will resonate with anybody who happens to be human.
7. We Need to Talk About Kevin – Lynne Ramsay's positively haunting film—a horror story in many ways—about a mother (Tilda Swinton) who doesn't love her own child. Does she not love him because he is awful? Or is he awful because she does not love him? In the aftermath of an unspeakable tragedy, Swinton's face is a rictus of despair. In a year of incredible performances, hers is the most powerful.
8. Midnight in Paris - Woody Allen's fanboy take on the artist's life in Paris in the 1920s—and his most charming film since Purple Rose of Cairo. In this case, the Woody substitute is a Hollywood writer (Owen Wilson), concerned about selling out, who travels to Paris with his materialistic fiancée and gets magically transported back to the days of Pablo, Ernest, and Zelda. Giddily romantic, filled with Woody's patented takedown of blowhards and pseudo-intellectuals, and a fun party game to boot—hey, is that Adrian Brody as Salvador Dali?—it was the film everyone loved this year, and with good reason.
9. Win Win - In my review, I referred to Thomas McCarthy as the "Anne Tyler of directors." He makes movies about surrogate families, unlikely bonds, and sad people finding solace—if not outright happiness—in each other's company. (In many ways, he reminds me of the great Alexander Payne—and this year, I actually preferred McCarthy's lively offering to Payne's somewhat wan The Descendants). Paul Giamatti gives another note-perfect performance as a decent man who does decent things, but not always for the right reason. Amy Ryan keeps it refreshingly real as his Bon Jovi loving wife. And newcomer Alex Shaffer shines as the sullen young man who enters their lives and, unexpectedly, their hearts.
10. Summer Action Movies - Okay, this is cheating a bit, but there were an insane number of good action films this summer. We'll start with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II, which ended that (eventually) excellent series on a triumphantly high note. Then the ferocious, humanist, fiercely original Rise of the Planet of the Apes, featuring that great motion capture performance by Andy Serkis, and certainly the most pleasant surprise of 2011. Those two may've soared above the rest, but this summer also gave us the treat of Chris Evans morphing from 98-pound weakling into superhero in Captain America; Kenneth Branaugh's campily-fun Thor; The Rock going bicep-a-bicep with Vin Diesel in Fast Five (actually more of a spring release, but I couldn't resist); and the female catnip of James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender teaming up (we're not worthy!) in X-Men: First Class.
Runners Up: 50/50, Beginners, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, Martha Marcy May Marlene, The Muppets, Putty Hill, Shame, Source Code, The Tree of Life, Young Adult.
Note: I am yet to see David Fincher's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I will post a review of that film on Tuesday and let you all know if it should've made the cut.

Thanks for sharing that with us. So much tragedy in that family.
YouTube- Elvis Father Vernon Funeral (2)
Vester Presley gets upset at the fans in this clip...
I'm the King of the Jungle, They call me Tigerman
Thanks for sharing that with us. So much tragedy in that family.
another sad event in presley family !
He was the firstest with the mostest.
Not sure if it's my weather, my computer or my eyes I don't see a picture?
"I just wanna be......your Teddy Bear"
Thanks for posting the clip JC. Interesting conversation about the plans they had in that time. I wonder how Vernon would have managed the estate in the following years had he lived longer.
Probably not with the same business 'savvy' that Priscilla entered into............
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
I imagine what happened with Priscilla would have happened with Vernon.
Vernon would have signed the Colonel up to carry on "TCB-ing" as did Priscilla, and then it would have been discovered exactly how much money the Col was getting and gone to court etc. Then Vernon would employ others to carry on the business.
and yet she and the col. remained friends with her even attending his funeral.
I'm not defending Cilla, and saying she did anything special.
However, I do think she has got more business savvy than Vernon had...........
She has employed the right people at the right time to do what needed to get Graceland open and paying $$$$$.
She, as well as being paid (why not?) made the best decision to look after Lisa's interests, and gave the fans somewhere to pay their respects to Elvis.
It is such a shame Lisa doesn't take a more forward approach to her Dad's continuing legacy
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Priscilla's not business savvy at all that's just a myth.
look at all her other business ventures they've all failed and her saying on Larry King that she was working on restoring old movies, starting her own record label and producing a Broadway musical about her life have all yet to materialize.
Thank goodness for the other executors who were not hired by Priscilla and didn't work for her but were appointed by Vernon in his will to manage the estate on Lisa's behalf.
Fans give Priscilla too much credit and May is right she wanted Colonel Parker to continue working with the estate and she was willing to pay him his usual 50%.
She wanted the Colonel to help her because she knew she didn't know what she was doing.
I'm sure the other executors advised her, they were bankers/investors. that's what they do. LoAnne Parker said the Col. never took that 50 percent of "everything", it was only for things having to do with Elvis's likeness. EPE was basically established already by Elvis and the col. it was just a matter of it being taken over by someone other than the Col. I know people think the Col. was a rip off artist, but he did work for his money too. It is said that Priscilla wouldn't even sign papers for months and drove the other executors nuts. I read that somewhere.
Thank you for sharing!
Yes, it is understandable. What I don't get is why they waited so long to do something about it since while Vernon was alive they had already talked about the posibility of opening the trophy room to support the house, but Graceland did not open for tours untill 1982. It's like they did everything in a hurry when they saw there wasn't almost any money left and then made all the arrangements in a few months.
I'm not saying she was qualified to make the decisions herself without advisors, but the right people working together got things sorted out.
I'm not a Cilla supporter at all, don't think I'm defending her. However I do think it's better having a family member heading things up front. LM would be the obvious choice, but as she isn't interested Cilla is the next best as far as I can see..........
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Sure, that's why Vernon saw her as the best option to take his place after his death. But what I meant is it's obvious plans and proposals were taking place while Vernon was alive so I wondered what he would have agreed to do had he lived longer. I guess he would have ended up opening Graceland too.

No, because it's not a sustainable way to get on base. He'll always run into slumps which trickles down the line up. Also, there will be situations where the lead off hitter needs to come through with runners on.
Let me ask, if it's the 9th inning 2 outs with a runner on second who would you rather see at the plate? Denard or Ben? Needing a bunt to move a runner over, who would you rather see at the plate? To lead off an inning in a 1 run game, who would you rather see at the plate? I can't think of situations where Denard isn't a more ideal hitter. As I mentioned I think they should trade Denard cause he has much more value but the slight difference between speed and defensive range does not make up the gap in ability at the plate. I like Revere, I'm rooting for him to be successful, but I have always thought he has the ceiling of Juan Pierre offensively and is a 4th OF on a winning team. I do agree that Aaron Hicks is the future, I love his upside.
Okay, this year Revere is a better #2 hitter...well, isn't Mauer always batting third. You see some better pitches. As a lead-off guy, they come at him right out of the gate. He has to improve what he looks at tremendously to hold down the lead-off position. Span, you pretty much know what you've got...except that he has now broken down for the second year. Wouldn't you feel better right now having Span sitting on someone else's bench and a solid pitcher in our rotation? Span had more worth during the trade deadline.In the off-season, he is just another player competing against a slew of free agent outfielders and other trade bait. Now you have to ask the worth of Revere as a trading chip compared to Span. And WiIllingham will still be the guy everyone wants.
Trade any Ofer you can for front line SP.
Disagree. Trade Span for pitching, keep Revere as lead off. Slap hitter, but he bats .300+, better OPS, excellent base stealer, fast as hell, great glove, and now an adequate, accurate arm. Plus, kids love him.
Meanwhile, you've got a bunch of good-looking prospects bubbling up through the minors. In the top tier you've got Hicks, Arcia, Benson, Dinkelman, Ramirez, Morales, Ortiz, Rams, Ray...and of course Buxton and Max Kepler on the E-Twins. Friends, the Twins system is loaded with outfielders. Unless those guys can throw curve balls for strikes, some of them will wind up traded for pitching.
All that talent coming up makes Denard Span available for trade. In fact, it practically demands a trade, especially with the Twins going through a penny pinching era.
So with your theory, Span would be a .350+ hitter with Mauer hitting behind him . You're right about knowing what we have with Span, a .360 OBP lead off hitter that can hit for 40+ doubles, steal 20 bases and play a good center field. And on him "breaking down", he hurt himself hustling for an extra base and making a spectacular catch for his team, he didn't mysteriously break down. He has flaws, mainly his baserunning but people don't point out the times where Ben fails to get a bunt down to move a runner over at crucial times in games. I just don't understand why people are so down on him, he's been a great player for us, and will be a great player for another team, probably next year.

I certainly wouldn't argue that personality trumps talent but I do think it matters. This is a team badly in need of some exuberance and leadership. You have a lot of really good guys on this roster but those same guys are very low key and quiet.
In terms of personality, I really like Span's competitive edge and he is possibly the 'nicest' guy on the team. Revere is just too happy go lucky. Revere's defense is a little overrated. He only has a .6 dWar. Ben doesn't even eclipse a .700 OPS.

I know Span doesn't make a ton of money but what if TR says to himself: "I can put Revere in center and not lose much and then if I flip Morneau and Span $20 million comes off the books and I can make a sincere run at Greinke." Would you essentially trade Morneau and Span for Greinke? I'm not a great sabermetrics mind (my two-year old probably gets sabermetrics better than I do) but I think at first blush I'd make that trade.
The more I've thought about it, the less I like Grienke.
#1. His numbers are no longer elite. An ERA a little under 4 and a little under a K per inning is elite compared to this squad... but relative to the money and years a 28 year old pitcher who has been in the majors since 2004... I don't like that risk.
#2. If he signs with the Twins it means we overpaid. By a mile.
#3 Why would he want to sign here? It makes little sense for a pitcher who will write his own ticket in free agency to pick a team that lost 90+games 2 years running... Hell if he signed here I think it would be a sign that he has no competitive spirit... and would rather just stay out of big pressure games.
The Twins need to make a serious run at fixing this rotation... but I don't think it should be Grienke.
In terms of return Span will probably bring a B prospect, Revere would bring very little until he proves himself again next year Revere will be viewed as a Juan Pierre, value, but not going to bring a good pitching prospect in return. Span could be bring more, but paired with a Parmalee could bring a solid B or more from the clubs looking for hitting (read Tampa Bay and Seattle). Oakland may also fit in this class, but they look more solid than the prior two clubs.
FA pitchers are going to be expensive. I expect New York and Boston to both be looking among other clubs. This will probably make the market price higher than the Twins or other small to mid market teams will want to pay, so trades will be the only way.
Span is due back in mid September and I hope he finishes well, otherwise the Twins will be left with the choice of trading Willingham for pitching or waiting until spring training, that would not be a good way to go.

I've always thought that because of his anxiety disorder this market might be ideal for him. I would think NY or Boston might eat him alive. Somebody else brought up Marcum maybe he'd be a better fit than Greinke. I think I'm on an island with this one but I'd try to leverage either Span or Morneau in a deal for Vogelsong from the Giants. SF has needs thanks to the Melky debacle and the fact that Belt is still a question mark.
A. Of the players mentioned... Span... Revere... Hicks... Arcia... Only one has proven himself. That is Span. I got a good gut feeling about Arcia... My gut says he will be special but until he does it in the majors we can't really boot Span or Revere out... Hicks finally had a encouraging year.... I really hope that continues and he is a monster but he's hasn't proven anything yet... I'm hopeful... Revere has done a great job and he's a freeking ballplayer but he's young and needs to continue doing it... He has earned the right to keep doing it. Span is the only one that has proven anything.
B. Saying Span has more power is like saying the 5-3 guy is taller than the 5-1 guy. Yeah he's taller but he ain't tall and a young 5-1 guy has the chance to grow to 5-3 or 5-6. You can't say it won't happen and you can't say it will.
C. I keep reading this Juan Pierre Comp and it always seems to be phrased in a negative way. Why is it negative? What is wrong with Juan Pierre. 12 year career... 9 seasons of 600 AB's... .296 career average... 586 stolen bases. He was traded in 2005 for 3 pitchers including Ricky Nolasco and Renyel Pinto who was the Cubs Minor league pitcher of the year in 2004. He's been a starter almost his entire career. The only exception was his last two years with the Dodgers after they acquired Manny. If Ben Revere turns out to be a Juan Pierre. I'd be thrilled and if he does... Hicks and Arcia will have to do extremely well to take his spot.
D. Ben is my favorite Twins player right now and I've always liked Span. I would still trade both of them for pitching. We need pitching.
Boom. Very true. I do actually think that a Span-Benson-Hicks outfield would be optimal, but I don't want both Willingham and Arcia to be traded. Clearly there are big questions about Benson now anyway. A Willingham-Revere-Hicks outfield is pretty good (with Arcia DHing quite a bit, but also Willingham as well). I do think that trading Willingham at the deadline is a good option if (assuming Span or Revere is traded) if if all three of Benson, Hicks, and Arcia are ready. I would love to see 2013 end with a "youth movement."
The best case scenario, in my view, is getting a flip-flop of Willingham and Revere defensively. And keeping all three OFs until it is truly time for Hicks and Arcia (and hopefully Benson). That time is not here quite yet. I am scared, however, that Span will be traded, Morneau kept, and Parmelee made into a right fielder. So preposterous. Parmelee has no future in the OF.
Baseball Reference has Span getting picked off 4 times in 2011. Revere 6. Revere had about 1.5 times as many opportunities. Not sure if those are accurate. I think Span's pickoffs happened in a bunch that made them stand out more. For the record, this year Revere "leads" 4 pickoffs to 3 (while also stealing more than twice as many and getting caught only about the same).
Since Revere is a cheaper option and will be under team control for a longer period, it seems like he will be around longer. Span is getting older and his performance will start to go the wrong way in the coming years. Hicks will be up by the end of next season to take over an outfield spot.
I have a feeling Denard's trade vaue isn't as high as it once was. He is looking like a player who is a little fragile (I know he can't help the concussion issue). I think Revere is only going to get better and you can't teach speed. He should be the CF anyway, even with a healthy Span.
I'm not against trading him for a B prospect if the team also pulls in a raw guy with good upside in the low minors. It all depends on the package. If it's only a B prospect, no thanks. I'd pass. The team doesn't need to trade Denard but it is a good idea considering the dearth of pitching in the system.

Jeff Fisher keeps everyone waiting !
In the 2011 off season the Dolphins started a full fledge media circus in the process of trying to lure now 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh, now one season removed it would seem that the Dolphins are going for round 2.
While note entirely their fault the Dolphins have been forced to wait for the past week or so for Jeff Fisher to make his decision to coach either the Dolphins or Rams. Despite initial reports from Jay Glazer that it was all but inevitable that Jeff would be the Rams coach it appears for whatever reason (a potential move to LA, preference of organizational structure) Fisher has shifted his preference to Miami.
With that being said nothing is ever simple in Miami and today for a short amount of time the media circus caused from a Dolphins coaching search reappeared.
It is a bit unclear whether a rumour started from a fan or from media however there was a report that ESPN radio announced Fisher was in the midst of signing with Miami and there would be a press conference later in the day to make the announcement.
As time started to tick, the social media world slowly discovered that the rumour was completely false and while many insiders such as Michael Lombardi or SI's Don Banks report that Fisher still is leaning towards the Dolphins there has been no official word on what Fisher decision will be and there was certainly never a press conference planned.
The power of social media was shown 10 fold this afternoon as the entire dolphins fan base was excited then disappointed and perhaps even more pissed off within hours. Some would argue that while we all love sitting on our computers anxiously waiting for twitter breaking news that twitter is often not the best form for releasing this type of news as this is the second time the dolphins fan base will be left disappointed. While I still believe Fisher will land in Miami it appears there is no avoiding the circus for this Dolphins organization.
After another day of waiting it appears Fisher will hopefully/ finally make up his mind this Friday.
Shefty reported today, Source said Jeff Fisher is making sure he has ideal situation. "This is not about money, not about negotiating. This is about winning."
Dolphins fans and Rams fans are running out of patience, so please for Tim Tebow's sake please make your decision already.

I have to disagree. He had an amazing visit to UM, said UM has his favorite coaching staff, raved about the food in A2 (and he's said in numerous interviews that will be a factor) and fully said he's looking at sports management after having met the dean of that program at UM (therefore, essentially dropping engineering). It's not ear-plugging as much as an educated guess. As far as VT, they don't have his preferred major, and he has said that's a major factor. Which is why I've personally felt confident. Not saying he's a lock, but post Hand's visit, I felt more confident about him than even Peppers after his. |

Does anyone own a PRS with stainless steel frets?
I own a guitar with a phenowood fingerboard and stainless steel frets and I love the feel of it.
Just looking for everyone else's thoughts.
Thanks guys!
Does anyone own a PRS with stainless steel frets?
I own a guitar with a phenowood fingerboard and stainless steel frets and I love the feel of it.
Just looking for everyone else's thoughts.
Thanks guys!
I don't own a PRS with SS frets, but I will say the frets on my 2012 PRS feel more like my one guitar with SS frets than any other guitar I own. I assume the alloy is harder than typical.
I do not believe they make them or have with SS and here is a video of Paul on why.
2010 Taylor 816CE
2012 PRS P22 in black gold wrap around
well now I see it was not in this video but I saw somewhere that he did not like the tone with stainless.
2010 Taylor 816CE
2012 PRS P22 in black gold wrap around
Phenolic fretboards are actually not pure wood, of course, but they can be very good and stable (they're sandwiches of woods and phenolic resin). I had one on my Modulus Graphite Bass a few years back. The combination of the graphite neck and the phenolic board was very clear sounding on a bass, anyway, and of course it was impervious to humidity, etc.
I have no idea how they sound on a guitar, though.
I think PRSes are good with their more traditional materials. If I remember correctly, a few BaM people had refretted guitars (maybe PRSes) with stainless steel. So it'll be interesting to get peoples' takes on the topic.
I'll be quite dead before any of my guitars needs a refret, so stainless steel frets isn't something I'd be interested in.
Last edited by LSchefman; 02-19-2013 at 01:46 AM.
The latest fret material is very hard, much harder than in the past. In one of the Rules of Tone videos, Paul says he asks his supplier for the hardest fretwire they can make. To my hands, it doesn't feel a million miles away from stainless steel which I've had on other guitars.
Does SS frets change the tone of the guitar?Anyone?
I de-modded my CU22 soapbar and made a factory spec setup.Im in love again.I very much believe now PRS guitars are perfect as they are.
I think stainless steel frets do change the tone. I would expect a brighter tone. It's different, some people love it and some hate it. I love them because I hate dealing with worn frets. I have played the living hell out of my early production Parker Fly and it does not show even the slightest amount of fret wear. I also know that the frets are hard to level and chew up fret files in a hurry. Try a Parker fly and see what you think. Good luck!
I actually have a Vigier GV Wood and I love the feel of the fretboard and frets. Now I want a PRS that is like it.
I've owned a few with SS, and I don't own them any more. I'm convinced it does affect the tone by adding some brightness. On certain guitars it might not be that noticeable but if you have it on a guitar like a Strat or something with an ebony board, it might tip it over into the too bright category.
PRS Guitars - PS #4344 SC245, PS #4343 DC245, Ted SC245 Willcutt's WL Limited, Paul's Guitar One Off
PRS Amps - Archon
I've had a few refretted with Jescar FW57110 Stainless, did not experiece added brightness.
If I Told You All That Went Down It Would Burn Off Both Of Your Ears
I am in total agreement. They have a distinctive tone to them. More metallic sounding, less woody, less bottom end. I owned 2 guitars with them, now one, and it will get a refret asap. I also have a strat with 2 necks. One with regular frets, a warmoth with SS. The guitar sounds totally different with the SS frets, and not in a good way.
Last edited by Tag; 02-20-2013 at 10:05 AM.
I have 3 guitars with SS frets comparing my mahogany SS fret with PRS 513 the SS resonate louder but plugged on the amp the 513 is brighter so the overall pack is what define the tone. For me the difference is on the feeling of the neck. With SS frets the neck feels harder but last way longer and with nickel frets it's smoother resonate better on your hands. At the end both guitars sound amazing I mean $$$$ amazing truly 2 pieces of state of art - yeah I love my guitars all of 'em can't pick just one
I've owned 2 guitars with stainless frets. They sounded awesome. I LOVE the feel. As a matter of fact, I just ordered a Private Stock Modern Eagle with SS frets.

Seagate 750GB Momentus XT Hybrid Drive SATA III ST750LX003 $100 after $20 Rebate Free Ship @Tiger
TU. I have the older 500gb version in my laptop. Seagate should really try to market this drive better. It took a week or so for the drive to learn what apps I use on a daily basis, but after that, this was significantly faster than any other laptop drive I've used. In a mobile environment, it's hard to do an SSD if you have a lot of data to carry around (and I absolutely do not want to drag an external drive with me) and it's even harder to justify the cost of a 500gb SSD. This drive is super awesome for the laptop segment. Mass data + SSD speeds for the cost of a standard laptop drive? Yes please!
Not just for laptops. Great last-breath upgrade for older desktops running Windows XP, especially if your old hard drive is nearing capacity. Unlike pure SSD drives, this one doesn't require Windows 7 for proper function.
I put one in my office machine at work. One thing I was unprepared for was how much quieter it made my system. The constant hard drive chatter disappears almost entirely. If you buy one of these, you can download Seagate's free drive cloning software to image your old drive onto the Momentus in a few minutes. Just hook the new drive to your machine, install the software on your old drive, and run. The software checks to see that at least one of the drives is a Seagate product before running.

I'm interested to see if our coaches will take one more OL.
If they do, then I hope it is Darius Latham (assuming he wants to play in the B1G for Michigan).
I mention Latham because he can play on either both lines. So if we don't need him on the OLine, then we can switch him to the DLine and allow him to play as a DT or SDE.
I also like Latham because I recall him mentioning that he grew up liking Michigan and wanted a Michigan offer. I don't know if he ever got it.

he was 3-3 vs Miles and 1-2 vs Saban...not exactly what I would call " dominated" be either of them, but to each his own. I think Urban has been a head coach long enough that you kinda know what to expect from him recruiting wise...his classes typically rank high and he wins alot of football games. 2013 has been a crappy year OL wise for us, but Id hardly think that is the norm, and with 8 months to go, it can still be salvaged. No Strong or Mattison, but his assistants now arent bad recruiters and tOSU is one of those schools that can sometimes recruit for itself, regardless of coaches. I think Urban will do just fine

Keep in mind Saban and Miles oversigned, and Urban never did. If Urban could have signed 8 extra players a year the outcome would have been different. And if we can land Pocic, well be just fine with the OL. We'll also get Lovell Peterson who just dominated the NFTC camp. This time last year he was considered one of the best OL for this class and had Bama and OSU in the Lead. Well last summer he got very sick and lost 50 pounds. Now he's getting his weight back and should earn an offer at camp. Remember last year guys, signing day is far far away!

OSU fans always mention how a good defensive line will beat a good offensive line. Does that mean that Michigan's defensive line is going to abuse OSU's average at best offensive line in the coming years?

UPDATED: Body of Missing VSU Student Found, Still Searching for Second
Posted: 12:56 PM Apr 22, 2013
April 22, 2013 6:05 PM
PETERSBURG, Va. (AP) - A body recovered from the Appomattox River is believed to be one of two Virginia State University students missing since Saturday.
Media reports say the body was located by divers Monday afternoon. It was taken to the medical examiner's office in Richmond for identification.
April 22, 2013
Two Virginia State University (VSU) students are still missing, after being last seen in the Appomattox River early Saturday morning.
Officials say the search for the two freshmen has now moved from a rescue mission to a recovery.
Some of the students involved say the late-night swim was part of a hazing ritual for an organization called "Men of Honor". They say group leaders told them there was land all the way across the water.
The students say they thought they were joining a legitimate organization, but VSU says they do not sponsor any organization by that name.
"They made it seem like we were doing it for a school organization," says Christian Cavazos, a witness to the incident. "But they got kicked off a long time ago."
The two men still missing are Jauwan Holmes and Marvell Edmondson.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 2, 2008 Ford Motor Company employees at Kansas City Assembly Plant today celebrated the production of the new 2009 Ford F-150, which offers the most capability in the full-size pickup market with unsurpassed fuel economy.
Ford is the truck leader and core F-150 truck buyers expect and demand the best truck on the market, said Ford Motor Company Group Vice President of Global Manufacturing and Labor Affairs Joe Hinrichs, who thanked plant employees for a successful launch of the new F-150. Fords quality is on par with the best in the industry and the team at Kansas City Assembly Plant is delivering a truck that is Built Ford Tough with an unrelenting focus on quality and craftsmanship.
On sale later this month, the new F-150 offers fuel economy that has improved an average of 8 percent across the entire lineup as a result of a wide-range of engineering enhancements. The fuel economy gains reach as high as 12 percent versus the prior model year on F-150 models equipped with the high-volume 3-valve, 5.4-liter V-8 engine. At the same time, the new F-150 delivers class-leading towing capability of 11,300 pounds and hauling capacity of 3,030 pounds a combination no other competitor can match.
The new F-150, part Fords F-Series lineup that remains the best selling vehicle on the market, also offers more standard safety equipment than any other half-ton pickup on the market, with comparable or better pricing at all three cab configurations versus the competition. The F-150 Lariat SuperCrew, for example, starts at $35,820*, more than $5,000 less than a comparably equipped 2009 Dodge Ram.
Ford invested $110 million in Kansas City Assembly Plant for new tooling and equipment to build the new F-150, which offers consumers the most cab styles, box options and trim levels.
Upgrades include the addition of 24 new clearcoat robots for flexible automation in the paint shop. In final assembly, the box line was extended to support installation of the F-150 cargo management system and the tailgate step. The plant also added 65 new error-proofing devices to ensure quality is built into every new F-150.
In the body shop, state-of-the-art, precision lasers were installed to mate the roof and body-side panels to the trucks new roof structure, which features the industrys first use of super high-strength, dual-phase steel. The stiffer, tighter structure contributes to improved safety and delivers a quieter more refined ride.
These measures, along with other design changes are key to delivering Fords most capable F-150 ever. Even before production of the 2009 F-150 began, prototypes of the new truck endured 4.5 million miles of real-world and laboratory testing and quality checks where genuine truck customers use their pickups.
And while the truck was undergoing tough testing, Kansas City employees were focused on ways to build in quality into each new F-150.
The team at Kansas City Assembly Plant understands the importance of the F-150 to Ford, said Ken Ward, plant manager, Kansas City Assembly Plant. They are proud to build Fords most capable F-150 ever.

Thursday, Dec. 12 Girls Basketball
Western Buckeye League
Midwest Athletic Conference
VAN WERT — The St. Marys wrestling team swept a pair of matches at a Western Buckeye League super tri at Van Wert High School on Tuesday night. The Roughriders opened the night with a 59-21 over Ottawa-Glandorf and then handled Van Wert 48-28.
"The team made a lot of good choices from top to bottom," St. Marys assistant coach Tim Heisey said. "They seemed to move constantly. That's the key. We've just got to keep moving, moving, moving."
Tuesday, Dec. 10
Girls Basketball
UNION CITY — The Minster girls basketball team emptied the bench and spread 75 points between 13 different players in a 75-34 win over Mississinawa Valley on Monday night.
The Wildcats improved to 4-0. They will travel to St. Henry on Thursday for another Midwest Athletic Conference game.
Kayla Richard led Minster with 16 points, the lone Wildcat in double figures. Claire Fischer hit three 3-pointers for nine points, along with nine points from Logan Arnold and eight points from Lauren Roetgerman.
MASSILLON — Marion Local's 33-0 win over Trimble in the Division VII state title game on Saturday made the Flyers the seventh school in Ohio High School Athletic Association history to win three or more consecutive titles, joining Cincinnati Moeller, Cleveland St. Ignatius, Delphos St. John's, Newark Catholic, Versailles and Youngstown Ursuline
"It means a lot to us and our community," Marion Local quarterback Adam Bertke said. "Just to be out there with those top schools, it's an awesome honor."
NEW BREMEN — Things started clicking for the St. Marys Roughriders during the second quarter of Saturday night's game at New Bremen. St. Marys got its hands in the passing lanes, started draining shots and eventually opened up a double-digit second-half lead that it nursed through the fourth quarter for a 50-39 win over the Cardinals.
St. Marys' ended its three-game opening gauntlet against top Midwest Athletic Conference teams with a win — and a double-digit victory at that.
ANNA – It came down to a put back basket by Andrew Arnett with two seconds left to put the New Knoxville Rangers basketball team over the hump Saturday evening and give the Rangers a 59-57 victory over the Anna Rockets in a non-league game played at Anna.
MINSTER—Minster head coach Mike Lee said it best after his team downed Lehman Catholic 64-51.
"I just told the kids there are going to be nights that are not pretty and there were some rough moments, but it is better to be rough on the winning side then on the down side," said Lee.
Austin Brackman and Brandon Hoying scored 12 points apiece. Eli Wolf had 11 points.
NEW BREMEN — A three minute stretch midway through the third quarter allowed the Versailles Tigers to close up a deficit and by the end of the quarter grab a three-point lead. The Tigers hit free throws down the stretch to defeat New Bremen 58-47 Friday night.
New Bremen moves to 1-2 and 0-1 in the MAC.
ST. MARYS — St. Henry's first half was a messy affair, full of fouls on defense to go with a clunky offense. The first several possessions of the second half erased all that for the Redskins.
St. Henry scored the first 11 points of the third quarter to break things open after St. Marys had closed to within one at the half and the Redskins earned a 56-42 non-conference win at Memorial High School.
St. Henry outscored the Riders 17-6 in the third quarter to take a 42-30 lead into the fourth.

Louisville, KY, September 20, 2000 - Ford's Super Duty F-Series trucks are officially one in a million, and the Company celebrated the milestone today at its Kentucky Truck Plant in Louisville. There, a very special truck rolled off the assembly line - the one millionth Super Duty F-Series to be produced since the vehicle's major redesign for the 1999 model year.
On hand for the celebration were Kentucky Truck Plant Manager Frank Foley, UAW Chair Dickey Sutton, Super Duty F-Series Marketing Manager Lew Echlin and Over-8500-Pound GVW Truck Vehicle Line Director Bill Osborne.
"The men and women of Kentucky Truck Plant have worked hard and with pride to build this important truck for Ford Motor Company and its customers," says Foley. "Building one million trucks in two short years is definitely something to celebrate."
Very Important Customers Reaching this milestone would not have been possible without loyal Super Duty F-Series customers who have continued demand for the trucks and propelled sales of the Super Duty to approximately 40 percent of total F-Series sales.
One such customer is Larry Carroll, from Houston, Texas - the heart of the truck market. Larry was flown to Kentucky Truck Plant to join the celebration and to take possession of his truck - the millionth unit to roll off the line - during today's celebration.
"Larry epitomizes our Super Duty F-Series customer," says Echlin. "He has owned more than one dozen Ford trucks in his lifetime, he is active in his community, he leads an active lifestyle, and he estimates that he has put more than one million miles on his Ford trucks. How appropriate - the one millionth Super Duty F-Series truck going to a customer who has logged one million F-Series miles!"
Ford sells more over-8500-pound GVW trucks than any of its competitors combined. The Super Duty F-Series lineup, including Super Duty F-250 through F-550 is built at the Kentucky Truck Plant with supplemental production at the Cuautitlan Assembly Plant in Mexico. The Kentucky Truck Plant employs more than 6,000 people, who also produce the Ford Excursion SUV.

Premiums have resisted downward pressure for the past 10 weeks despite sparse demand from the stainless sector. But a shift has come for the base metal as stainless producers start moving their inventories back into London Metal Exchange warehouses in a bid to balance their books before year-end.

High school expels student for tweeting f-word
I am sure that the people who run Garrett High School in Indiana radiate intelligence.
Perhaps, though, they have tossed a little inkblot onto their pristine record with the expulsion of senior Austin Carroll. He didn't assault anyone. He didn't toss a projectile, nor brandish a knife. No, it seems that he merely tweeted.
Please prepare your best judgmental pose while I transcribe (mostly) his supposedly most offensive tweet: "F*** is one of those F****** words you can F****** put anywhere in a F****** sentence and it still F****** makes sense."
There, how did that feel? … Read more

The 2008 Subaru Legacy is a sporty, all-weather sedan that covers a vast range in terms of price and equipment. The base 2.5 i represents a strong value and is a distinct alternative to mid-size family sedans, while the 3.0 R Limited and high-performance spec.B models take on the best sport sedans from prestige luxury brands. All Legacys have stable and sporty handling, but models with the turbocharged engine offer especially sprightly all-around performance. Safety is also a strong point, with the sedan's top performance in crash-test programs.
All Subaru Legacy models are now sedans for 2008; in order to get the wagon body style it's now sold under the Outback name. A new six-cylinder model of the Legacy, the 3.0 R Limited, is available for the first time for 2008.
The Subaru Legacy now has three different engines available for 2008, depending on the model. 2.5 i and 2.5 i Limited models come with a 170-horsepower, 2.5L horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine, while 2.5 GT Limited and Spec.B models get a turbocharged and intercooled 2.5L flat-four making 243 horsepower. At the top of the range is the 3.0 R Limited, which gets a 245-horsepower 3.0L flat-six.

It's very close to Santa Monica, Hollywood and downtown. The purple room where we stayed was lovely but more importantly had a comfortable bed and pillows! Gail Buky assisted us with directions and helped us decipher which farmers market to tackle. We enjoyed the self catered breakfast, it suited us and our schedule. I would highly recommend this bed and breakfast it's gorgeous!"

Patrick will greet you every evening in an atmosphere full of music with a variety of themes. Have your flip-flops and pareo on hand for the famous camping night!

My favourite: eels with Roquefort and the crayfish salad in a genuine thatched cottage of the restored village of Kerhinet in the Brière regional nature park.

An institution for aperitifs and oyster tasting.

With refined decor and cooking. Christian and Eve welcome you there throughout the year. Under no circumstances mention Cocoches nose to his face!

A place not to be missed in La Baule that is chic and relaxed at the same time. I love their pizzas thin crust, their sumptuous chocolate profiteroles and the delicacy of their dishes.

If you want to taste good Dervin-style mussels, seafood, a good galette with a bowl of cider and have a breathtaking view of the ocean youre right on the path of customs officers of the wild coast [...]

I love this beach! I always have a good time in this top-notch brasserie that favours seafood. Very friendly!

It is so pleasant to watch the sunset while drinking a small caipirinha with sea urchin rillettes before having a dish that is always remarkable. Dont tell everyone; its a very special place!

A Thai restaurant. Some will tell you it is the best restaurant on the Coast and theyre right!
