Facts about Banshee
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Brown Or Chocolate (Mostly)
- Age: Adult
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
My name is Banshee!
Banshee's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, declawed, good with kids, not good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Banshee is a gorgeous 8 year old boy looking for a new home because he has recently decided he didn't like the other animals in the house and has been starting fights with them. He loves to play & interact with people, toys, laser pointers, etc. Banshee loves to cuddle and mainly sleeps/hangs out with his current owner's son. He is a diet-controlled diabetic, so he just has to be on a wet-food only diet and he has no health problems at all. This is not easy for his family, but it's not fair to Banshee or the other animals to just be unhappy. We just want to find him a good home with someone who will love him, play with him and keep him healthy. Could this be you?

Re: WWE 2006 & Beyond by ddmrko
Good show.
The Edge promo was very well done. You can tell he's still out for himself (and Lita) and is just keeping the rest of the army onside.
The RVD v Masters match was good with Edge's army raising hell. Always good to have a heel faction and this will be a good one. Flair's lot going after them makes a nice contrast.
DX was well done - I'm in suspense as I think it could go either way. Wouldn't be shocked to see an HBK turn.
Orton's promo was great, I like the shoot stuff you threw in there. Its always good when superstars deviate from the norm
Kane thing was good, great debut from Abyss. Hopefully we see more of Bearer too
Kenny v Haas was a good way to push Kenny
I like the set up for Vince/Shane and I like the way that Vince is losing the plot and is obsessed with DX - very realistic.
The Cena promo was great and the match was better than it would be if it actually happened on Raw! Loved all the false finishes and Orton attacking the ref really solidifies him as a heel.
Your Women's Division is booked very well - everyone is in character and looking forward to a possible Triple Threat match for the belt.
Edge v Flair was great. Edge and Lita on great form as always. Nice to see Lita heavily involved and I'd nearly forgotten about Foley so nicely done to bring him back into it and move Flair on.
Regal: He made me kiss his backside but it was a pleasure because it was such a wonderful backside.

This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)

Sony BDPS6200 3D Blu-ray Player with Wi-Fi and 4K Upscaling
Original BDP-S5100 review:
This is a full featured BD/DVD/Network player.
The player uses the same XMB (Xross Media Bar) interface as last years players and the PS3. All the same services are on this player as last year, including all the popular ones - Netflix, Amazon, VUDU, Hulu and Crackle. The Netflix interface supports the new Super HD (5800kb/s) stream, with Dolby Digital + audio. Amazon also supports Watchlists and Dolby Digital 5.1 bitstream. I mention this, because its one of the few players out there that does.
New for 2013 is the Youtube app, that gets a serious facelift, and supports HD streams and a new look.
Disk start up times have also being improved over last year by at least 10 seconds (compared to the top of the line BDP-S790 from 2012).
A lot of folks complained about text input on last years player, as the onscreen keyboard used a numeric keypad to provide the input. This year, Sony replaces it with a full QWERTY style onscreen keyboard, which is certainly easier to use.
What else is there. Well again the Sony player is very good for supporting local media playback through DLNA. This bluray player supports more file formats and codecs that most, and is best used with the Serviio DLNA server.
Also new for 2013 is the players ability to work with Sony's new 2nd screen app called TV Sideview. This gives folks the opportunity to interact with the player using a iOS or Android device. You are able to search across multiple network services (Netflix, youtube) and local content too ... although i've not had much luck with search ... the system seems to have a few bugs in it right now. Early days though.
One other new capability over last year is the built in Opera web browser. It has being improved and will support "some" HTML5 video streams ... such as youtube, within the browser. Again, my experience with it wasn't ideal, and I really wouldn't recommend using this blue-ray player to browse the net! Its just too slow to render the pages.
Visually, its a nice looking player, and has a semi metal case, compared to last years all plastic one. Its suppose to have improved WIFI reception too ... although I only tested it with a wired Ethernet cable.
If you're looking for a solid disk and network player, the BDP-S5100 is well worth a look. Is it worth upgrading from last years BDP-S590? ... well, only if you are a heavy youtube user would I consider it. The BDP-S590 was already a excellent Bluray player, and Sony has only done a few incremental improvements here.
Final thoughts ... note that this player has no analog outputs; not even for audio .. so if you have non HDMI equipment, don't even consider this player. No Digital optical output either (Only Coaxial) Also this player won't come with a HDMI cable, so plan ahead !!
I can't comment on its 3D abilities as I don't have any 3D displays.
For folks that may have a issues with video cutting out intermittently, do yourself a favor and turn off "deep color" in the screen settings. No content uses this feature anyway.
Thanks for reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Player With A Few Issues (RESOLVED),
D Bone (SoCal USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
I bought this to replace my Panny 210 and so far, it works well, with just a couple of complaints. Compared to the Panny 210, the unit is quieter and much quicker to load and play a BD. The UI is typical Sony and I like it, a lot. The wireless was easy to set up, and the firmware update was finished quickly.......... Make sure you turn the "BD Audio Mix" setting to OFF if you are connecting the player to an AV receiver that can decode DTS Master and Dolby HD signals, otherwise you won't get the best that Blu-ray has to offer.
Now, as for the issues. The Pandora app takes much longer than I expected between songs. On my Sammy 6420 TV, it is no more than 5 seconds between songs and on my Onkyo 709 it is no more then 3 seconds, but on the S5100 it takes at least 15 seconds or more between songs........Pretty annoying. However, the YouTube and Amazon Prime apps both work great with no stuttering or buffering and I'm only on a 2.5mbps connection.
The main issue: Today when I went to play Pandora it got stuck on the "Acquiring internet content 3/3" screen and would not load any smart apps. I turned it off/on and nothing, then I unplugged it for 5 minutes and plugged it back in, nothing, I rebooted my DSL ( even though the S5100 said that my connection was OK ), and still no joy. I read online that with some of its other players, Sony recommends to do a system reset to fix this, but I also read from users that a reset didn't do a thing, and they had to spend 20 minutes resetting up their player, so I didn't do it. I then got stubborn and tried to load Pandora again and let the machine idle on the "acquiring internet content" screen for 20+ minutes and it magically fixed itself. This would be a huge deal breaker if it becomes a trend. I will update with the results and adjust my rating when I get more time on the unit. If it happens again, it will be going back immediately, but if it was a one time fluke, then I will be more than happy to keep it.
Hopefully Sony gets enough complaints regarding the Pandora app and sends out a firmware update to fix it. If that happens, and today's app issue never happens again, then this would be the perfect 5 star player......Time will tell.
UPDATE 5/7/13: I read over on AVS Forum that it was recommended to disable the "Software Update Notification" setting (set to ON by default) to prevent the "acquiring internet content" freeze that I experienced. I did so the day I wrote this review and I have not had another issue since. The downside is I have to manually check for updates my self, but I personally prefer that as it's no different on how I handle Microsoft Updates for my computers. One check per month should be more than enough, but since it's so easy, you can do it at the end of every session as it takes under 15 seconds to complete.
I could no longer take the Pandora & Slacker delays between songs, so I ditched them, and now just use my Samsung's Pandora app instead. If you have other smart machines in your home theater, then they probably have Pandora & Slacker on at least one of them, but if you're going to have to rely on the 5100's Pandora & Slacker apps, then be prepared to be frustrated.
I raise my rating to 4 stars because of the simple fix for my main issue, and it only falls short of 5 stars because of the lazy apps. If Sony fixes them, then it's a 5 star machine......Overall, a very good player that (knock on wood) will live happily in my system for years to come.
UPDATE 6/4/13 Today's firmware update completely fixed the Pandora app. Now there is only a 4 second delay between songs. I raised my rating to 5 stars.
UPDATE 6/28/13 It's been 3 weeks since the firmware update that fixed Pandora and I'm happy to report that this is the only Pandora app that I use now. 3-5 seconds in between songs is awesome. Also, I re-enabled the "Software Update Notification" and I have not had the issue I mentioned above regarding the unit freezing on the "Acquiring internet content 3/3" screen, and I use it daily.............Typical Sony, find a problem, fix it........... I can't recommend this unit enough.
UPDATE 9/1/13 We have been using the Amazon Instant app more than we ever have, and I am happy to report no issues. We are now on U-verse 6Mbps and that speed is fast enough to receive DD 5.1 when it's offered, also no stutters or freezes either and the video is above average for a streaming HD feed. The firmware updates have lessened as of late so it looks like Sony is happy with its current performance..........I know I am.
UPDATE 5/20/14 It's been 13 months with many, many hours of use both as a Blu-ray player, as well as a streaming media player and I am happy to report there have been no major issues. Sure, there has been the occasional issue once or twice that turning it off/on resolves, but knock on wood, I have not had to do any type of soft/hard reset like unplugging or hitting the reset button in the settings. I would say that it gets used for 70% BD movies and 30% streaming as I now have a Roku3 that I rely on for streaming duties. I see no reason to pay more for the 2014 Sony when this model can be found for so much cheaper............... 5 stars easy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sony S1100 vs S3100 vs S5100,
E. Tucker (IA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
With the release of these three updated Sony bluray players in 2013 I have put together a quick overview of the main differences between the three to help you decide. I went with the middle of the road S3100 and so far have been very pleased. It pretty much comes down to whichever features you need in your player as all three from a playing bluray perspective are the same. When you are ready to put your big boy audio/videophile pants on, check out the Oppo high end player at the bottom.
The Base Player - BDP-S1100 - Replacing the Sony S185
No WI-FI - Wired Ethernet only
Does NOT support DLNA
There is NO internet browser
Does NOT support Super Audio CD
There is NO analog video or audio outputs whatsoever
There is only one USB input (on the front of the player)
There is NO optical digital audio output on any of the three players. In addition to the HDMI there is digital coaxial audio output only.
Middle of the road - BDP-S3100 - Replacing the Sony S390
All the previous plus...
WI-FI support (2.4GHz)
Internet Browser with Opera TV store
DLNA support
Gracenote "lookup" support
TV Sideview Android and iPhone App support
There is NO optical digital audio output on any of the three players. In addition to the HDMI there is digital coaxial audio output only.
The High End - BDP-S5100 - Replacing the Sony S590
All the previous plus...
3D support
Extra USB port in rear
2D -> 3D conversion ability
There is NO optical digital audio output on any of the three players. In addition to the HDMI there is digital coaxial audio output only.
The Sony Flagship player - BDP-S790 - Not being replaced by anything this year yet
All the previous plus...
4K Video Upconversion
Internet Picture Enhancer Pro
Super Bit Mapping
3D Streaming
Additional HDMI out in the rear
Composite Video output in the rear
Analog Audio output in the rear
And for those that didn't know that high end bluray players existed out there, check out one of the most popular ones on the market.
The Oppo BDP-103

3.0 out of 5 stars Fine as My Workhorse 3D Blu-Ray Player Only,
MINDSCI (Bridger Mountains, Montana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
I had a Sony BDP-S590 3D Blu-Ray Player, but my big puppy jumped on me and I fell hitting the open disc tray with my shoulder. I tried opening up the unit to see if it was something I could fix; unfortunately, I found a large white gear broken in half. The BDP S590 was history. In the process, I had also discovered that the Sony BDP-S590 was built like crap. Its innards are just cheap.
I had paid less than $100 for the quite good performing BDP-S590, so I took a chance on its successor the BDP-S5100; I have not been disappointed. The BDP-S5100 is even faster than the BDP-S590. Blu-Ray Discs load immediately. The Blu-Ray picture is excellent with incredible detail, very low digital noise, and good color . DVDs also look very good with upscaling to 1080p; it's actually the best I have seen yet in this price range. 3D Blu-Rays look great too. Titanic 3D, Dredd 3D, Pacific Rim, and Promethius 3D all look fantastic with this player.
Another plus with the Sony is that it has both optical and Digital Coaxial sound outputs. I have the Digital Coaxial connected to a multiple input and output Digital Coaxial Switch and Selector. That way I get dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 sent to my 3 older JVC Digital Receivers with digital soundfield processing. Unfortunately, they don't have HDMI inputs and outputs, But thanks to their Digital Coaxial inputs, I still get Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 96/24 Audio output to my 5.1 X 3 surround setup with dual 10" subs.
Disappointingly, the BDP-S5100 is just as unsubstantial as my older BDP-S590. This is definitely not going to be a long lived device. At 2 pounds it is light as a feather which smacks of cheapness. Like the BDP-S590 it is likely the same: all delicate plastic, very thin stamped steel, and small misplaced globs of grease. However, the BDP-S5100s saving grace is its superb Blu-ray processing .
Meanwhile, I will not be letting this player connect to the internet most of the time. Unfortunately, Sony forces Firmware Updates that enforce more and more restrictive "features" on the user. As a result, I will connect to let it do firmware updates only after I read about their effects from those that have a given version. I am just using the BDP-S5100 as my workhorse Blu-Ray player for all the movies I rent from Redbox and Netflix. It's a great performer when used as such. Its 2D to 3D conversion actually works OK on a few titles. I use my Smart 3D Wi-Fi HDTV for Streaming.
Finally, the BDP-S5100s quasi-pyramid/stealth-bomber top is just ridiculous in my opinion. Amazingly, all the main Blu-ray player makers are following this same silly "artsy" design philosophy with weird shapes and all the buttons on the top. It's as if they think owners are going to have their $100 player on a special display table in front of their Big screen 3D Smart HDTVs for everyone to marvel at- just silly. All my components are in dust protected cabinets with shelves, but I won't be stacking anything on top of the Sony due to its shape. Luckily the buttons on top are raised, and there are only four. Sony, please put the control buttons back on the front where they belong. You're not the only component I own, so why not play nice with the others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Player,
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
Pros: Quick setup, great picture quality, lots of apps
Cons: Menu screen is a bit too dark, BD player a bit noisy
I've only had this player for a couple of weeks, but have played around with it quite a bit. I'll preface my review experience by saying that this is my first blu-ray player, so I have nothing to baseline it against.
The player loads very quickly upon power up. Compared to the load time on my Oppo 971h DVD player, it's a race car. The picture and sound quality are top notch, as expected. I did not experience any glitches during playback and the 7.1 surround sound is truly immersive. The wifi setup was very easy and I was able to quickly download an update to the firmware and be up and running in a short time. There is a bit of a noise when using the physical disk (BD or DVD) as it spins even when you're not playing the movie. This was not much of an issue for me since my equipment is inside a cabinet.
There are the typical selection of apps avaiable for streaming: Netflix, Amazon instant video, Youtube, Hulu+, Vudu, etc. I tried out Netflix first and the HD streaming was flawless, with no interruptions or lags. It does take about 20 - 30 seconds to load to actual app, but once you're in, there are no delays. I had a similar experience with Amazon. I'm a Prime member, so as soon as I logged in, I saw my saved items in the queue. There was a small delay with the Amazon app as I navigated through the choices and menus. Also, the Amazon user interface is actually more intuitive on the older Wii console.
Pandora is another app I've tried and have gone through several playlists throughout the week. Again, like the Amazon app, I experience some delays here and there, but nothing too annoying. The songs however, seemed to play with no lag.
The one area that is somewhat annoying is the menu and keyboard options. I'm hoping to remedy the latter with a USB keyboard, but for now, I have a reasonable solution. I've installed the TV SideView app on my iPad (it's also available in the Google Playstore). Using the app, I can quickly search for titles, play movies, music, etc. much faster than wading through the menus with the remote.
As I mentioned before, the menu seems a bit dark and scrolling through the huge list of apps for video and audio is not ideal in the current arrangement. I've also experienced some sub-menus that don't display a "back" or "return" button. It appears as if you're stranded at the end of some menu. You are forced to hit the "Home" button to get back to the main menu.
The physical size of the player is rather small, which is nice if you're fighting for room in your electronics cabinet. It is somewhat difficult to stack another device on top of it since it has that prism design, but I still managed to get the Wii console and my ATT Uverse box on top of it. The build quality seems rather cheap for a player that's supposed to be a flagship model.
Overall, I'm very pleased with this device so far and I'd say it's a solid contender. I may provide an update in a couple of months after extended use.

Melba "melba" (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
March 6 2014
I got this for a gift for Christmas. It was fine, great, very happy until TODAY.
After upgrade to software above ALL REGIONS DVDS OTHER THAN USA REGION WILL NOT PLAY.
Very upset, Sony, Amazon, please advise.
March 7, 2014
Amazon has agreed to take the product back for a full refund, something I am very happy about because I got no response from Sony and don't want to fool around with hacking a product I have only had for two months.
After reading quite a bit online, it is clear that many sellers specify *** Do Not Upgrade ***, something I would not have agreed to (future compatibility), since this is a product I do not want to be replacing every few years. There was nothing here or on the package documents to say do not upgrade.
I will replace this from an online seller who supports firmware upgrades, even if it is a bit more.
Again, thank you Amazon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceeded my expectations,
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
Everything worked perfectly out of the box. Netflix / Amazon Prime /Pandora etc etc all worked fine with the codes the player provides during setup or when using the first time. Absolutely no problems. Old DVD up-conversion looks sweet.
Hookup was a snap (does NOT come with any HDMI or any other cables in the box), and I had some minor kludging to do, as some of my other equipment has been around for quite a while - but everything went smoothly.
My old receiver has, along with 3 Toslinks, a default "coaxial" digital audio input for DVD players,
and since the hi-quality :D gold shielded "digital audio" cable I foolishly ordered from Monoprice hadn't arrived yet, I just grabbed a cheap video composite rca cable I had laying around and used that.
I'm used to good quality (for digital) 5:1 optical audio, and for the life of me I can't tell any difference (no crosstalk, buzz, interference or drops) using this cheap workaround rca cable (a short 6' run) - so I'll swap out when my "good" one gets here, - but just so you know, a cheap yellow video composite, or ANY cheap rca audio cable will likely work in a pinch (for short runs).
If you don't have a "coaxial" digital rca input on your receiver, just get something like this: C2G / Cables to Go 40018 Coaxial to Optical Digital Audio Converter
The picture quality right out of the box was impressive - if necessary I can even convert the HDMI output to DVI (via converter cable) to accommodate an older DLP Samsung tv, and though when I do this it degrades down to 1280�720 it still looks great. I've seen no glitches, drop-outs etc so far, even when I hook it up to the older equipment.
The icing on the cake was the network performance. I have a Netgear 802.11.N wireless router with wired gigabit ports, but even though the Sony player only has a 100baseT ethernet input (I did go wired RJ45, haven't tried wireless yet) the network speed is more than adequate - I have little to no download wait time for Netflix, Amazon Prime HD movies with 5:1 sound - and when I can dig up a good quality movie from one of those sites (full 5:1 / HD) everything looks and sounds great, with fast rewind / fast fwd / repeat over the network (Comcast "blast" testing at 50Mb+ down-speed)
Lastly, what also impressed me was how painless it was to access all my multi-media from my PC with DLNA. My laptop saw the Sony player immediately on the network and vice versa - and with a few "share / permissions" tweaks on my laptop for security all my music, vids and pictures were immediately available on my tv.
The only things the S5100 doesn't do that higher-end players do are 4K upscaling and "Skype on your TV" - but until prices for 4K come down a lot, I have no desire to shell out $$s for a 4K tv, and I Skype from my laptop. The included Opera browser imo is for me a waste of time - I use my laptop's browser.
For $130 bucks, this thing exceeded my expectations in performance and literally painless setup. Easily worth the dough.
As I try newer more tricky stuff in the future I may add some detail to this review, but honestly, after just a couple days and just the few things that I've done so far, I
I have to give the BDP-S5100 my total recommendation for anyone looking for an affordable mid-range solution to media players.

2.0 out of 5 stars I think I got a dud.,
parrothead (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
I own several Sony DVD players, and they've all been very good, till now. This player got good reviews and operates about the same as the other players I have, so I thought it would be a safe purchase. When it arrived and I hooked it up, the first thing I did was update the firmware. So far so, good. I set up other services such as Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, Youtube, etc. All that worked fine. The first time I noticed something wasn't right was when I attempted to play a 3D blue-ray DVD. It would say that it was reading the disk, but never come back. After several power cyclings, it finally read the disk, and played normally. If I tried to stream anything, it would report a network error, and quit, even though the smart tv right next to it was able to stream the very same service without a problem. Occasionally, streaming works, but most of the time, it does not. And, I continue to have problems with it reading DVDs. I tried to get it to display pictures and video on a USB drive. It would say it was reading the drive, but would never return. The very same USB drive plays without a problem on the smart tv and computer. So far, it has not been able to read any drive I have tried, even though every other device, including my older Sony DVD players, can.
The only thing I can conclude is that this particular player is defective. Other reviewers have noted problems with player. Gotta return it.
A couple other things aren't working. If I try to update the firmware wirelessly, it goes away for about 10 seconds and then returns with no message of any sort. My other Sony players will say the firmware is up to date if its. This does not. Also, it cannot see my computer on the network, even though the tv and other players can. And, last but not least, it occasionally freezes for no apparent reason.

This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
Product worked well out of the box but after only a couple movies it now won't read any discs. It just displays a "false" error and amazon is no longer accepting a return for this faulty merchandise. As a long time amazon customer this is very disappointing.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU WANT TO USE AMAZON PRIME VIDEOS OVER THE INTERNET! (IT RARELY WORKS),
Hypercussion (New York City Metro Area) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony BDP-S5100 3D Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (2013 Model) (Electronics)
This blu-ray player itself isn't bad. In fact I was really liking it. For less than $80 you are getting a blue ray player with built in Wi-Fi. But there's always a catch right? And that's where the Sony Entertainment Network comes into play. When you install this player you are forced to register it to use the Sony Entertainment Network or SEN if you are activating it for use with Amazon Prime. They claim it enhances the quality. Well I guess Sony considers unavailability and constant software upgrades an enhancement. When you connect to Amazon you also connect to SEN servers and when you really want to watch a movie (like on Friday or Saturday night), so does everyone else and Sony's servers are so overwhelmed and under provisioned that you constantly receive "a network error has occurred" when trying to connect to Amazon. I did a lot of troubleshooting and I am certain the problem is with SEN. I can connect to any other streaming service (but only have a subscription to Amazon) and a TV I have in another room that is Internet capable can connect without a problem. I searched Google and there are dozens of other users complaining about this issue. If I didn't throw out the box, I'd return this in a minute. I've been a loyal Sony customer for many years but no more. I will never buy another Sony product. And seriously DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU WANT TO USE AMAZON PRIME VIDEOS OVER THE INTERNET! Regarding the software upgrades, I've owned this for 2 weeks and have had to run through 3 already which take about 10-15 minutes each and require a power reset of the player. One last point that might be an issue for you. This device only supports a digital coaxial audio output (or audio through the HDMI interface) so if you don't run your HDMI through a receiver or don't have a digital coax interface on your receiver (I did) you might not be able to run the audio through your surround sound system.

Campbellsville used a strong second half to overtake Adair County and capture the Citizens Bank/Campbellsville University Holiday Classic basketball tournament on Wednesday night.
The Eagles (9-2) trailed 18-8 early and 30-23 at the half against the hot-shooting Indians (5-8).
Campbellsville scored 13 of the first 17 points in the third quarter to claim the lead for good.
Thomas Downs, who did not score in the first half, tallied nine points in the period's first five minutes and finished with 14 points and 10 rebounds.
Taylor County won its first two games in pool play (vs. the Australian Cobras and Washington), then fell to host Marion County in the battle for the No. 1 seed and to Simon Kenton in the third-place game in the Mordecai's Holiday Homecoming Classic in Lebanon.
The Cardinals were paced by senior guards Lloyd Stotts (70 points in four games) and Tyler Moss (53), who both were named to the all-tournament team.
Tevin Webster was in foul trouble against Washington County and had 38 points.
Campbellsville University making its first trip to the NAIA College Baseball World Series was just one of the huge highlights on the local sports scene in 2009.
Here's a month-by-month summary of some of the headline makers.
Campbellsville Eagles knock off previously-unbeaten LaRue County on the road.
Taylor County uses 50 combined points from Chase Cox (26) and Leonard Macon (24) to down Campbellsville 65-43.
Campbellsville's girls' break a 48-game district losing streak to upend Taylor County 60-53.
The crystal ball is in terrible need of repair after starting the football bowl season at 1-6. However, after five straight wins early in the week, there may still be some hope.
Here's what might (or might not) happen on the local, state or national sports scene.
Campbellsville used a 15-7 run to end the first quarter and never looked back in disposing of host Barren County 56-44 in the third-place game of the T.J. Samson Hospital Holiday Classic on Wednesday night.
Aaron Schwoebel's three close baskets and three more hoops by Bryton Taylor ignited coach Tim Davis' Eagles while Matt Davis had six second-quarter points and 11 in the first half.
Davis and Thomas Downs had nine rebounds apiece as CHS won the boards 41-19.
Tevin Webster had six points in the first quarter and inside mate Chase Seaborne six in the second period, and Taylor County out-scored Claiborne (Tenn.) 19-9 in the second quarter to capture fifth place 53-41 on Wednesday afternoon in the T.J. Samson Hospital Holiday Classic at Barren County.
Coach Troy Young's Cardinals won their last two games and now stand 6-4 overall.
Webster finished with 15 points while Seaborne totaled 10. Webster also had three assists, two blocked shots and two steals while Tyler Moss had seven assists for Taylor County.
If you started looking for comparisons between the Campbellsville University Lady Tigers and their Saturday afternoon opponent, Indiana Wesleyan, there weren't that many.
Well, the teams both sport two seniors on their rosters and both beat Bethel at Bethel.
So, if someone was looking for an advantage going into the game between the NAIA's 10th-ranked Division I team and NAIA Division 2's No. 4, IWU had a seven-point edge in the margin of victory over Bethel.
Cameron Hall, a Campbellsville University signee, hit a fall-away jumper with just more than 10 seconds to spark Glasgow past Campbellsville in a semi-final clash in the T.J. Samson Hospital Holiday Classic on Tuesday at Barren County.
The Eagles (5-2) had fought back from a 14-point second-quarter deficit.
Bryton Taylor's 45-foot banked-in three just before the half-time horn brought CHS within eight, and the Eagles used seven Taylor points to creep within six (56-50) at the third-quarter stop.
The project that will ultimately lead to night games for football, soccer and baseball and artificial turf for football and soccer, drew its first dirt Monday when holes for the light poles began to be drilled at Finley Stadium.
Playing without a pair of starters, MeLeigha Pollock (back injury) and Hope Wigginton (out of town), the Taylor County Lady Cardinals fell 55-43 at Bardstown on Monday night.
The Lady Cardinals (7-3) trailed only 34-30 at the intermission, but were out-scored 13-6 in the third quarter.
Freshman Mercedes Cox paced Taylor County with 26 points while juniors Elizabeth Thomas and Alana Claywell added seven apiece.
The Lady Cardinals begin play Sunday in the Independence Bank Holiday Classic at Daviess County.

Fab Freebie: The Art of Home
You guys know we're suckers for a good house portrait, so we're happy to be serving one up this week thanks to watercolor wizard Michelle Schneider of The Art of Michelle. She creates all sorts of good stuff, but we're drawn the most to her charming renderings of people's homes and gardens. It's always fun to see the different twists that artists put on painting their most structural of subjects. You might find someone's pet popping up in the yard of some of Michelle's work – or some sheet music adding some texture to a tree or a roof. This week she's giving one of you a custom 11 x 14″ house portrait, which is valued at $300!
Please use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter (it might take a second to load, but it should eventually pop up below this paragraph). This giveaways is available worldwide! Plus, Michelle is offering free shipping on orders using the code YOUNGHOUSE through October 7th! And FYI, she's currently taking holiday orders (but is almost booked up). And for anyone who misses the freebie bonus question, we started one over here in Forums so you can sound off and see what everyone else thinks on the subject.

Does participating in the "freebie" over in Forums gain us an additional entry?
I think I need to sit in the corner with a "Dunce" cap on because I have no idea what "freebie bonus question" is and if I don't answer in the forum does that mean my entry is voided? I feel a little lost when I enter into the givaways. It's a conundrum.
By the way I love this idea. Very cute idea to hang a nice portrait of your home.
This would be perfect! We are getting ready to put our beloved home on the market. We have gotten orders to Hawaii (seriously, half way around the world) and we know that selling is best for us right now… but it does hurt our hearts a little to do so!
Enjoy Hawaii, Gayla! It's my favourite spot on earth. I'm assuming you're a military family, so just wanted to say 'thanks' for all you do & best wishes! :0)
I have become obsessed with your blog ever since my husband and I started house hunting back in February and bought our first home in July. Although we've done a ton of painting, paintings and pictures have not reached the top of our priority list just yet. Having a painting of our first home would be the perfect start with photos of both of our childhood homes above and below!
I have ordered from The Art of Michelle before! She is so creative and a joy to work with. My friends and family are always commenting on my house portrait!
Sherry, if you and John are looking for a new home renovation project that might have special (hint, hint) meaning, I have found it for you. Marshall Mathers' boyhood home is going up for auction this week. Minimum bid is $1! Of course, you would have to travel back and forth to Detroit, but the property is only 776 square feet so you could probably knock it off over a long weekend.
Oh…. for a second I thought it was "Jerry Mathers" as in, "The Beaver" ! Haha – and I wonder how many of you won't know who I'm talking about.
Such a great idea! Love this!
These are so cool!! I just bought my first house 2 months ago and would love to get one of these.
It would be so amazing if I won this! My husband and I got married at our house & I gave birth to our son at our house too!
I love her work and I have been eyeing it for a while. Unfortunately, I can't get one right now but I definitely intend to have her do a painting of our current house one day! This house is our first together and where our son has grown up so far, so it definitely holds that sentimental value!
"You might find someone's pet popping up in the yard."
I swear I read this sentence three times before I realized you didn't say, "you might find someone's pet POOPING in the yard."
I was like, "why would anyone want their dog pooping incorporated into a print of their home?" #longday.
I did the same thing!!
me too!
Same here!
LOVE it, Kate! I'm still laughing…
I would love to win this and get a custom painting of my grandmother's house. My grandfather designed it and helped build it. I don't get to visit nearly as often as I'd like anymore. I'd love to have that bit of family history with me in my own home.
Funny, I JUST purchased a home portrait via Etsy this past Friday from another young lady! My dad sold my childhood home at the end of July so I felt like I needed something professional to remember it by. It would be SO cool if I amassed a mini collection of different artists' take on my old home :)
OH MAN! I would LOVE to win this. I've been thinking about how much I would love a portrait of our home lately. It's such a sweet and personal touch. Great giveaway! Her portraits are beautiful.
Oh! This would be the perfect gift for my mom. My dad passed away last year and she's having a hard time keeping the place up by herself. It's the house they lived in their entire marriage, so it's sad for her (and the rest of us) to have to sell come spring. Fingers crossed that I win but if not it's still a wonderful gift idea to remember all the memories from our home.
TO ALL THE LADIES: if you miss the raffle, well, I do house portraits as well and I will happily watercolor all the houses for the ladies who couldn't make in the talented Michelle clients list! :-)
PLUS I design and realize custom portraits in the shape of paper dolls! I am a young architect but I am curating and growing my "secret" illustrator business :-) I love my dolls and I am pretty sure you will love them too!
Please stop by on my website or facebook page to say hello and peek at my "Happy families" series: you won't be disappointed, I promise! :-)
Find me on
http://www.lacatrina.it and LaCatrina.it on Facebook!
I have to get one one of these for my farmhouse! LOVE IT!
Oh! I LOVE farmhouses so much! Would love to move out to the country someday…
I purchased this for a friend as a housewarming gift and she just loves it. She even included their pug on the front steps! These are absolutely beautiful in person and such a special accent to a home!
The link doesn't work for me :( It just takes me to the blog article again :O Evil internet robots messing up the YHL universe :O
Just a totally random question – do we have to check back here to see if we won, or we will be emailed directly? I've always wondered that….
I have to say, I am selling my first ever home (you know, that I personally own) and this gift would be so meaningful to me for so many reasons. My mum lived here with me and she also passed away here with me at her side. I would love to have a picture to take with me to all my new homes. Thanks for the chance!
the link for the forums doesn't work =(
What a lovely gift to giveaway, thank you!
This would be awesome!
One of the greatest giveaways so far! This is so personal! Thanks for sharing!
It wasn't meant to be spam :-(
This is such a sweet giveaway. I can't remember, but didn't your (Sherry's) dad draw one of your old houses before? This reminds me a lot of it. :)
These are great!! Off to check out more…
This would be so neat! My husband and I are finally purchasing the house we've been renting for the past three years, which just happens to be my childhood home! I'd love to have it for posterity as it is our dream that one day our children will take it over. In fact, my parents bought it from my mom's sister, who was only the second owner to ever live in this home. Lots of family history, which is just the way we like it! :)
NO WAY. I was JUST looking at her shop on Etsy over the weekend – thinking about ordering a print for my in-laws (who just moved out of my hubby's childhood home into a city condo)! This would be an amazing giveaway to win! Fingers crossed!
Ohhhhh awesome :)
I'd love to have a picture of my parents teeny little house done :) They've owned it for over fourty years.
Oh my goodness! I was just thinking of this as we just moved into our forever home after renting and townhome living throughout our 13 year marriage and three kids. <3
You guys post the most interesting giveaways – I love hearing about different artists and shops to explore. Thank you so much for taking the time to find things that will be meaningful and unique to share with us!
Oh, I want to win this one so much! This is my first house, and it's a wee little one that won't last me too much longer, but I worked very hard to get and have it, and I'm proud of it. It's far from perfect, but I DID IT. :)
This is a wonderful giveaway! I would love to order one of these of our first house and I'd frame our first house key with it!
Thank you for the chance! Such a neat prize! lol
Just curious(promise, not complaining lol) why you don't offer more than the one entry per person..like adding "email subscribe" or "follow us on twitter" or "tweet"..just wondering..thanks!
This is great! I would love a portrait of our home.
I'm curious if any of your readers have won twice? I watch Live with Kelly & Michael and people win several times all the time!
I would absolutely love to win this. My dad passed away earlier this year, and my mom is having to sell the house because of it. This would be such a nice gift for her to remember it by! My fingers are definitely crossed for this one!
I recently came across one of your old posts where you got a print of your old house as a gift and was thinking of how nice it would be to commission that for our new house since we absolutely adore it. Then I thought how nice it would be to have a print of my parent's house in Puerto Rico where we would go on weekends and vacations and although we stopped going when I was still very young, I loved it. Soooo, long story short, so glad you're doing this freebie!
Oooo I've never painted a Puerto Rican house before! How cool would that be? Sounds like you have a lot of amazing memories!
I consistently have trouble trying to use Rafflecopter by email login on my iPhone. What's am I missing? It just goes opens a new page and times out, saying "loading." Did this last time too.
Thanks. I figured out the problem is just when I go to the site through Feedly.
Haha, our home is just too ugly for us to enter this. 70s architecture for the win?
We have just sold our house but have technically not closed. Prayers! But I purchased that home by myself at 30 and I know I will bawl when we close as it was a big accomplishment for me to buy alone. It was my son's first house, tear! I would love to win this to always remember our first place!!!
I'm in love with our little old cottage and would love to have a picture of it! Awesome giveaway!
These paintings are good! Thanks for sharing.
Hi John and Sherry,
I have a quick question about the giveaways. When someone wins the raffle, do they receive an email informing them that they won the prize, or do participants need to continue to check back after the drawing closes?
Thanks so much!
Ashley H.
P.S. You're style has really inspired me to step outside my comfort zone and select colors/styles/patterns that I have not traditionally chosen. It's been really fun! Thanks! :0)
I figured an email went out, but I just wanted to double-check. Does the email from directly from you all, or from Rafflecopter?
Thanks again!
Ashley H.
out of curiosity (and i'm sure John would get all giddy with the prospect of playing with more numbers) how many of your fab freebies have NOT gone over your former 10k entry limit since you eliminated it with the RaffleCopter widget?
Bummer. At first I saw the 77 comments and thought that was all that entered for the giveaway. Boo…I really want this. Both our babies were born in this house that we rent so I would love to have a keepsake of it since I know we won't be here much longer.
That's so sweet!
Just bought our first house, so this would be really neat!
Hi there! I have a memory of you all also getting a custom wooden block type thing of a house done. Do you have the link to that post or that artist's site by any chance? I've been googling around and I can't find it!
This comment section is currently closed.

DEFINITION of 'Interstate Banking'
The expansion of banking across state lines. Interstate banking became widespread in the mid 1980s, when state legislatures passed legislation that allowed bank holding companies to acquire out-of-state banks on a reciprocal basis with other states. Interstate banking has led to the rise of both regional and national banking chains.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Interstate Banking'
Interstate banking has grown in three separate phases, starting in the 1980s with regional banks. These companies are limited to a specific region, such as the Northeast or Southeast, and were formed when smaller, independent banks merged to create larger banks. Then state law permitted a national trigger that allowed mergers with banks in any other state after a certain date. The Reigle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act allowed banks which met capitalization requirements to acquire other banks in any other state after Oct. 1, 1995. The direct result of these legislations was the onset of nationwide interstate banking.

"There's always been an increase, but the last couple of years we've seen a large increase," Greene County Commissioner Larry Snow said.
Greene and Orange counties topped the list seeing the largest annual increase, something that means more taxes for unhappy residents.
"It's been rough, I mean rough. I don't know how the people in Greene going to be able to take much more of this, it's just steadily going up," Greene County resident, William Frye said.
Officials say one major reason for the increase is the booming real estate market, but they hope that what goes up will eventually come back down.
"I hope so cause we're all struggling, I am too and this year's not going to be a whole lot of fun," Snow continued.
Not fun, maybe for the working group, but a serious concern for those without a steady stream of income.
"We are on my husbands pension, how could it get any harder?" Orange County resident Alice Schaefer said.
Despite the crunch being felt across the board, not all counties are seeing the same drastic increase and that's leaving some residents with wandering eyes.
"I've been here about thirty two years and I'm looking at Madison County already," Greene County resident Darlene Meade said.
One thing all county officials stressed is that residents can appeal their assessments by getting in contact with their county assessors, but it needs to be done shortly after receiving the notice.

Debunked 'stimulus' claim
It was an absolute roaring success in terms of what what it was designed to achieve. A transfer of wealth from the private to the public sector = more dependency on gov't = political power and votes. Works every time. . As happened in Europe decades ago, once you pass the threshold of 50% of the electorate on some kind of government payroll, there is no turning back. It's not the end of the world, but certainly the end of productivity powered growth and the exceptional American propsperity we have come to take for granted. . Global investment of wealth and talent follows productivity, just as is it did when it left Europe for America, and is now doing from America to Asia. Our economy is entering an inevitable 'mature' state of political control. Best thing is to try to lock yourself into a gov't job while you can! .
Call to action on warming
Wow, . Global warming believers are not exactly known for their scientific literacy, but this is embarrassing!
'limit emissions of the harmful gases, especially carbon monoxide, the primary greenhouse gas.'
The GHG in question is Co2 - Carbon Dioxide, not monoxide. But this is still not the primary GHG which is in fact water vapor by a LONG way. Co2 is not 'dirty pollution', it is a product of natural respiration which is the main source of 'emissions', it's main role is in photosythesis, most plants evolved with Co2 levels far higher and still prefer levels around 3 or 4 times higher than today.
'The public perception of climate change has shifted considerably in recent years from one of significant doubt about the role heat-trapping gases play in global warming to one of general acceptance'
This sounds like something written 15 years ago, before global warming was the subject of satire. Actually the more people have become educated, the more faith in global warming has plummeted. Look up any poll you like
'Melting ice in the cold regions of the globe has caused a rise in average sea levels around the globe'
Actually, sea levels have been rising since the last interglacial maximum some 19,000 years ago. Pray this does not stop or reverse in our lifetimes! No acceleration has been detected since 'industrialization'
In 2007, IPCC notes "Global average sea level rose at an average rate of 1.8 [1.3 to 2.3] mm per year over 1961 to 2003 (IPCC) concluded that "No significant acceleration in the rate of sea level rise during the 20th century has been detected
This is actually the IPCC interpretation of 'a slight deceleration'
'widespread drought or floods in some places, heavy and more violent storms in others'
IN fact, global warming would reduce the overall strength of weather systems. Weather is powered by temp contrast, not heat alone. Consider the greatest storms we know of are on Jupiter and Saturn which are far colder. Likewise Venus has an atmos. of some 97% Co2. Temps of 700 degrees and hardly a breath of wind- because of the even heating. .
Global warming would warm the poles disproportionately, creating a more evenly heated and hence more stable climate. .
These basic facts are known by 10's of thousands of qualified skeptical scientists who consider catastrophic AGW a humiliation to science. This versus a handful of discredited political activist groups . So what's this all about? .
"Putting a price on carbon dioxide emissions, either through a cap-and-trade program or a tax, is a critical step in addressing climate change,"
Bingo!- you can't tax natural phenomena that have occurred for 100's of millions of years, but the by-product of all economic activity on Earth? It would be very surprising if politicians were not trying to tax that!

Brees expresses confidence in rookie Armstead
Updated On: Dec 26 2013 10:23:20 AM CST
Drew Brees sounds as if he's fine with coach Sean Payton's commitment to stick with rookie left tackle Terron Armstead in a game New Orleans may have to win to make the playoffs.
Armstead made his debut Sunday in a 17-13 loss at Carolina. Three times, the player he was blocking - Greg Hardy - sacked Brees. Twice, Armstead was called for false starts.
Beyond that handful of plays, however, Brees and Payton insist they came away from their analysis of game video with the impression that Armstead performed relatively well under difficult circumstances.
Payton says Armstead performed well as a run blocker and held up well in pass protection much of the game.
Armstead says Payton's patience with his mistakes helps his confidence.
New Orleans hosts Tampa Bay on Sunday.

Manchester United's Under-18s slipped to a narrow defeat on a cold and blustery Newcastle Training Ground on Saturday after firing a rare blank.
The young Reds, who put five past Middlesbrough a fortnight ago, couldn't find the net in a game that produced very few genuine scoring chances at either end. There was little to pick between the sides and one goal early in the second half proved sufficient to give the hosts all three points.
Dean Henderson was the busier of the two keepers in the early stages of the game as the home side looked to strike first. Newcastle should have taken the lead in the fourth minute after skipper Alex Gilliead burst into the area because although the Reds managed to defend his cross, the ball ran to Liam Smith and he blazed over from a good position. When Smith threatened again with a tricky curling shot from the right wing, the visitors' captain Ryan McConnell did well to clear it from the line.
At the other end, Demetri Mitchell, Joshua Harrop and Marcus Rashford all tried their luck to beat Newcastle keeper Freddie Woodman from long range. However, it was Matthew Willock, restored to the team after injury, who went closest with a shot that flew narrowly over the bar.
The strong wind was playing havoc with the game but both sets of players were doing their best despite the testing conditions. Playing into the teeth of the wind, the Reds started well after the break and seemed unlucky not to be awarded a penalty when Ashley Fletcher appeared to receive a push as he attempted to reach the ball.
Then, with eleven minutes of the second half having elapsed, Newcastle made the breakthrough. There didn't appear to be a threat when Magpies midfielder Greg Olley collected the ball midway in the Reds' half, but he managed to navigate a route through the defence before hitting a rising shot past Henderson.
The visitors enjoyed more possession in the second half and Rashford had the Newcastle defence back-pedalling and was unlucky not to be rewarded for his skill and determination. But the Reds were still finding it difficult to produce good scoring opportunities until Mitchell got his head

2500 Victory Ave
Dallas, TX 75219
Category: Music Venues
Region: Uptown & Oak Lawn
Fans of comedian and ventriloquist Jeff Dunham and his rainbow of supposedly hilarious puppets will be thrilled to know that the Dallas native is bringing his Disorderly Conduct tour to the American Airlines Center on Saturday. With such characters in his arsenal as José Jalapeño on a Stick and Achmed the Dead Terrorist, it's no wonder that Dunham is no stranger to controversy, having been accused of racism more than a few times, and of relying on his puppet shtick to be funny a time or two as well. That doesn't keep him from being what Time Magazine called "the most popular comedian in the United States" and being the only ventriloquist alive capable of filling a venue of this size. He performs at 7 p.m. Saturday at American Airlines Center, 2500 Victory Ave. Tickets are $59.38 and going fast at americanairlinescenter.com.

County Clare Farmhouse Rental Photos and Description
Sleeps 8 - 12, 4 bedrooms + convertible bed(s), 2.5 bathrooms
WHEN GUESTS drive down our road and take in the view they all exclaim 'Wow!' When they open the front door and enter our home they all exclaim 'Wow'!
In Glendree we found a peaceful and picturesque location, and working with an existing traditional house and farm buildings we extended and restored to create our dream family home centred around a huge, open-plan room with a grand design - a room in a home full of light and warmth, beauty and comfort, and interesting things reflecting our own interests and travels.
When we're home we like to spend some of our time with family and friends – walking, talking, cooking, dining, touring and exploring . . . and at other times quietly reading, listening to music, watching movies. . . and our high quality cook's kitchen, big tables, wall of books, fireplaces, superior underfloor heating system, wifi internet, ipod docking stations and sofa and reclining chairs in front of the big screen . . . all help make you comfortable and relaxed.
Our home really is the best of the old and the new. A complete renovation of the main house was undertaken in 2008, the conversion and connection of the old dairy in 2009 and, adding charm and character, the original 300 year old cottage stands proudly next to the old piggery and coach house ... unrestored ... our next projects!
The property sits peacefully in idyllic, Irish countryside, halfway up the mountain side of Slieve Aughty and overlooking the valley to the Slieve Bearna mountain range. The view is stunning - green, rolling hills, hedge lined lanes and fields, and old stone walls and cottages – all made for quiet, contemplative walking or if you feel like it - more active hiking, cycling, fishing, biking and exploring. It is all here!
Our home was designed to bring the best of the outside inside. A run of French doors open onto an elegant and large terrace which wraps around the living areas and provides an ideal area to quietly gaze at the view, sit by the firepit or BBQ and entertain. From this terrace you can hear the fall of our stream only 50 yards away, and on a clear night the Milky Way can be viewed arcing across the sky. Our large, south-facing conservatory is full of healthy plants and houses our favorite overstuffed sofa in which to recline with wine or a book, and is also set up for sunny, picturesque dining. Large expanses of double glazing and multiple skylights throughout the house all serve to capture the view, solar heat and light - all bringing the best of the outside inside.
We find many of our guests, despite the best touring plans and our proximity to major tourist attractions, simply relax and stay close, enjoying our home and close environs ...as we do whenever we can.
- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets considered
Guestbook comments from the owner
Fran and Paul,
I wanted to tell you how very much we enjoyed staying in your home. Our children loved adventuring outside and enjoying the sounds and sights. My wifes parents enjoyed the quiet serenity and simply relaxing and reading. It was just more than we had ever even hoped for.
The icing on the cake, so to speak, for us was Bernie and Trix. Trix greeted us with cookies and cream and a very warm heart. Bernie greeted us the same and together they made us feel so welcomed. My wife and our youngest children visited Trix at her home to see her animals one of the afternoons and had the time of our lives. My daughters both rode a horse for the first time and we had the chance to see why Glendree must be so close to your heart. Wonderful people, a wonderful house, and an experience that we will talk about for the rest of our lives.
Thank you again so much!
