In a Masters maybe. Is it any coincidence that Andy has only won one set in 4 Grand Slam finals. I reckon he is knackered both physically and mentally by that stage. The Wimbledon crowd helped him this year but he had to win that 2nd set. Even last year versus Nadal in the semis Andy looked dead tired but I guess there had been some days cancelled then due to the weather. But still Nadal toughed it out when he had to. IMO Andy needs to win all his matches in straight sets before the final almost to win this thing. And remember the USO has this crazy Saturday/Sunday thing as well which just makes it even harder for Andy.
Blah,blah, blah as usual.

I agree, best of 5, but tie breaks in the fifth, until the final which should be a fight to the bitter end be it 18-16 or whatever.
I agree this. I don't think it would be right to decide a major final on a tie-break. I'd have no problem with a tie-break fifth up until then, but a final needs that bit of something, an edge, and a fight to the end fifth would be good.

Oh dear, find myself agreeing with BigNose
Andy does indeed need to finish matches quicker. There's been more than one occasion when he's played eg Ferrer, beaten him in a long exhausting match, and then played "tired tennis" the next round. Seem to remember an AO match just like that.
Especially at the USO where the weather has played such a crucial part in the matches of those not scheduled to start till Wednesday, where I'm sure Andy, not Fed, will land up.
Here's hoping that the new aggressive model can get the job done
It's obvious Fed's match against Delboy had taken it out of him so let's all start offering sacrifices to the tennis gods, that Fed has
very, very
long matches...

Andy's problems were always mental, when he came up against one of the big 3 in a GS!!He's one of the most physically fit players on the tour.

Hi All,
I've said it before, but I'm going to say it again. Andy was my pick for this year's USO over a year ago, and I'm inclined to stick with him. I just have a feeling.
Putting intuition aside, I think Andy could go to the USO with the best mindset he has ever had in a major. I'm not saying he will, but he could. He's become pretty consistent in the majors, especially over the last year or so, and is playing to a higher standard within the majors too. Putting to one side the fact that Andy got to the final at Wimbledon, look at how he played. He was outstanding, and the same at the Olympics. That is why I would argue that the Olympics was no fluke. It seems to me to have been part of a pattern that has been developing all year through the majors, at least the majors where you might say Andy has the chance of winning. I'd never say he can't win the French, but it would be more of a surprise to me if he did compared to his chances in the other three.
As far as Andy is concerned, I think it will be interesting to see if he does go in with that extra belief that he might have been lacking before. Should he meet either Novak or Smugfed in the semi's and final - which I do think is likely, I just haven't decided which I would want him to meet where, if you know what I mean - I hope that he will be able to think that he has got through both of them now in a situation that really matters. He'll still have to do it again, but I think that awareness that he has shown himself that he can do it now could really help him. I'm not even sure that the Olympic semi being best of three, rather than best of five, is relevant. Sure, Djokovic would have had more time to work something out in five, but Andy was playing so well, and seemed to be playing with real confidence, especially in the big moments, I think he may well have still done it.
The other thing within belief is the point some of you have made that maybe the hard courts at the AO might suit Andy better. I wonder if he believes that? All I know is that he has often said that he feels his best chance is the USO, and he must have thought like that for a reason. It's funny though, some would insist Andy's best chance is grass, not the hard at all.
I think the one thing that could prove interesting is how the crowds respond to Andy. I personally like the USO because they are loud crowds without being OTT. I just wonder whether in the US they will embrace him that bit more because they will know what he did at the Olympics. He has always seemed to have gone down well with the USO crowds before, but I just wonder if now they know he has gone through the top two for a title, they will back him even more. The US does like winners. If they do get behind him I think it will help. The USO crowds are more like the Olympic crowds than a Wimbledon Championships crowd, which I think suits Andy. He seems to thrive on rowdy crowds, he even enjoyed the crowd at the French when he played Gasquet. When he started to come back, the crowd got on his back, and I swear he thought it was funny!
Of course, some of the contenders will be different at the USO, although I'm not really looking too much beyond the usual suspects, if I can call them that lol. Outside of that, I'm in two minds about Delpo. Sometimes I think he could threaten. Other times I look at him and just don't see it. If he was to meet Andy I think he would give Andy a match, but I think Andy would get through. I would think similarly of Raonic and even Berdych in a best of five. It will be interesting to see where Berdych's form is. Come to think of it, going by recent performances, even he might want to know where it is. Then there is Ferrer of course, but he couldn't meet Andy before the final in any case. Mind you, there is a thought lol.
It will be interesting to see if Nadal's absence brings others through who might not do it with him there. What I will say is that it isn't relevant to Andy, at least not early on.
I don't think the results in Toronto or Cincy are remotely anything to do with the USO this year. I'm not altogether sure the build up tournaments have any bearing in real terms anyway, I mean look at Andy at Queen's and then Andy at Wimbledon. No connection whatsoever. But with Toronto and Cincy especially, I don't think they have any bearing. It will be interesting to see how well Djokovic recovers, but something tells me he will be ready to go next week.
The draw should be interesting. Anyone want to make a bet on Andy getting another tough one? He's thrived on it lately though. Actually, did anyone hear Mark Petchey the other day saying he didn't think Andy's Wimbledon draw was that tough? I can't decide if that suggests Mark is delusional or just has a lot of faith in Andy's ability lol. Seriously though, I wouldn't want Andy to have too many long matches early on, I hope he comes out flying and ready to go from the off. That said, I do wonder if there is anything to my thought that maybe a tough draw helps him focus on the matter in hand, maybe more than having 'easy' opponents he has time to mess around with.

Not at all comcerned about Toronto and Cincy. Andy needs the rest more than the match play. I'm getting the vibe that all Andy's hard work is due to be rewarded. I hope its not wishful thinking.

Yes and perhaps more important even than the draw at USO is the scheduling. As someone has pointed out, Andy invariably gets the short straw of starting last among the top players so that if he does make it to the end, he is disadvantaged. So let's pray for some justice for the Olympic champion for once when they decide who starts when.

After the ranking update today the seeding for the US Open is now sorted. Of course we don't know who will miss out through injury.
This is the provisional seeding:
1 Federer
2 Djokovic
3 Murray
4 Ferrer
5 Tsonga
6 Berdych
7 Del Potro
8 Tipsarevic
9 Isner
10 Monaco
11 Almagro
12 Cilic
13 Gasquet
14 Dolgopolov
15 Raonic
16 Simon
17 Nishikori
18 Wawrinka
19 Kohlschreiber
20 Roddick
21 Haas
22 Mayer
23 Fish
24 Granollers
25 Verdasco
26 Seppi
27 Querrey
28 Youzhny
29 Troicki
30 Lopez
31 Benneteau
32 Chardy
Those that will be seeded if any of the 32 above pull out: Istomin, Anderson, Melzer, Andujar...
These are the names I feel could be a threat to Andy in the first two rounds (in other words, the unseeded players):
Anderson, Stepanek, Baghdatis, Tomic, Nalbandian, Haase, Dimitrov, Goffin, Mahut, Harrison.
Based largely on how those players have fared against Andy in the past, with a few in-form youngsters who could be wild cards.
These guys shouldn't be much of a problem, but ultimately could be threats if Andy is not on song and well capable of taking sets of Andy.
The seeds we need to watch out for:
Round 3: Nishikori, Wawrinka, Mayer, Fish
Round 4: Isner, Cilic, Gasquet, Dolgopolov, Raonic
From the Quarters onwards they're all threats. However Berdych is out of form, Andy has a 6-1 H2H vs Tsonga and 5-1 vs Del Potro (who looked very ordinary against Djokovic). So it's the unlikely one, Tipsarevic, which I'm most worried about. He has given Andy some very close matches over the years and the H2H is quite close.
It's inevitable that Andy will draw a few of these (although watch Federer avoid all of them..), and that's not necessarily a bad thing, but these are all guys I would feel uneasy watching Andy play, and he won't be able to afford a bad match.

Thanks MH. Based on the list provided, Andy wouldn't want to meet Nishikori and Raonic as they can take sets from Andy and tire him out for the later rounds.

I'd say that Federer, Nole and Andy will all be losing at least more than 1 set and to whom, it's still unknown. There will always be players who will thrive on beating a top player rather than, let's say advancing in the tournament and making personal progress, and IMO, they are the most dangerous ones. Keeping that in mind, would be nice to see Federer playing two back to back five setters.
Anyway, going to back to Andy, it would be nice if he brings total focus and a very aggressive game. I don't' think he needs anything more than that.

Thanks MH that was useful, draw on 23rd ATP site says so not long to find out. DelPo has also got a slight wrist injury, but he got blown off the court by Ferrer at Wimbledon then Andy sorted Ferrer out in the next round. Berdych is Andy's bogie man, but he is not playing so well this season and could be out before they are seeded to meet. Tipsarevic has not beaten Andy for 2 years and their H2H is good 5-3; we all know about Tsonga. Raonic in the lower rounds is the only one that worries me; he got to the quarters in Canada and Cinci. However, he was knocked out by first Isner then Stan, both players I'd expect Andy to beat.
If Andy has a good first round then the sky's the limit!

Tipsarevic can be dangerous but he can also be shocking he's unlikely to make QFs i reckon. so would be a good quarter for andy ( Fed's probably getting him tho)
I also wouldn't mind to see Andy in Berdych's corner ( not so he can play him but because he'll probs be put by 4R and it may allow for a slightly easier QF- if berdy did make though it'd be 50:50 cos tomas has a game that matches up well with Andy's)

What should have been a jaw-dropping, edge-of-your seat conclusion to Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy ends up being an epic letdown. The fundamental problem with "The Dark Knight Rises" is simple -- there isn't enough Batman.
Nolan put out his first Batman film seven years ago, and following "Batman Begins" in 2005 was "The Dark Knight," which hit theaters four years ago in 2008. Maybe it's just that Heath Ledger as The Joker was so good in "The Dark Knight" that anything or anyone wouldn't be able to live up to the second installment.
The film takes place eight years after Batman disappears following "The Dark Knight." He's become a fugitive and lives in exile after assuming responsibility for the death of D.A. Harvey Dent. For some time, criminal activity in Gotham ceased under the anti-crime Dent act, but the arrival of Catwoman (although she's never called Catwoman in the film) and masked terrorist Bane have changed that.
The new evildoers in "Rises" are the mysterious cat burglar, Selina Kyle, (Anne Hathaway) and Bane, a masked terrorist who wants to smoke Batman out of exile by destroying the Cape Crusader's beloved Gotham. But neither of these nemeses have the strength (although Bane is a big guy) to create the energy of past Batman rivals.
Nolan said that it was a tricky balance to give audiences something they haven't seen before. He doesn't achieve anything tricky or balanced as he delivers a post-Apocalyptic Gotham that we've seen countless times before. And while Bane may be interesting in comic books, here he's one part Incredible Hulk, another part Mad Max and a third part Hannibal Lecter. Meanwhile, you'll find yourself asking your movie seatmate "what did he say?" more than a few times as Hardy's Lecter-inspired mask makes many of his lines indecipherable.
The plot is as thick as Hardy's biceps, too, with a lot of characters spilling in-depth details about where they came from, where they've been and why they are here today, sometimes stopping in the middle of a dogfight to tell their story while their foes wait for them to spit it all out; it's not very realistic.
Bale is better as Bruce Wayne than Batman. The actor seems to relish his chance for the more dramatic performances rather than playing the action hero. His most ambitious acting moments are during a stint as a prisoner where the only way to escape is to climb out of a deep well. Taking a page out of countless fighter movies (Yo, Rocky), Bale as Wayne uses any means to bulk up to get the heck out of that prison. Go, Batman, go.
Michael Caine as Wayne's beloved servant and confidante Alfred spends most of his on-screen time with a constant tear in his eye. Dick Van Dyke's Cockney accent in "Mary Poppins" has gone down in history as the worst portrayal, but Caine's in this film may end up taking the prize.
The introduction of John Blake (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) as a rookie police upstart has promise, until he's given a sappy backstory about being an orphan at a Bruce Wayne Home for Boys, where Batman's influence helped him want to do good for Gotham.
Probably the best thing about this Batman is its delivery on IMAX, and it is the only way to see this film. Spend the extra bucks as it is worth it. Meanwhile, credit Nolan for not taking the 3-D route, which would have been thoroughly cheesy.
Batman purists will, no doubt, love this film, but if it's summer superheroes in action you're longing to see, this 150 minute epic drama will leave you cold.

Weird fit
This dress had me stumped. I'm 5'4" 138lbs, the small in any Bebe dress usually fits perfect but this dress was different. The fabric is a bit thicker than usual and doesn't stretch too much. The bodice fit well, it was sleek and form fitting but the bust area by the arms were tight... I could barely move my arms, so it was either deal with that or go up a size and have a loose fit. If you notice in the picture above, the sleeves on the model is very loose, well this is what you will get if you go a size up. The dress is very cute but the fit of the bust and arms is off, maybe if it were sleeveless?

If we can't plead stupidity, what else is there? How do we live with ourselves? Is it all the stuff we buy that manages to numb our brains and consciences? When I see a headline like this one at Bloomberg today, World Needs Record Saudi Oil Supply as OPEC Convenes, there's just one thought that pops into my head: what the world needs is for us to stop doing this thing we're doing. Even apart from peak oil concerns, it's obvious we're going to run out at some point or another, and it doesn't matter whether that's tomorrow or at some other point in the future, though we do know it's not going to take another 100 years, or even 50. And nothing will ever take the place of oil; once those unique carbons are gone, that's it, we'll have to find a completely different way of running our societies, and if we're not smart enough to prepare for that beforehand, we'll be cats fighting in a sack and use the last scraps to kill off each other. And our legacy won't be the Greek thinkers and Picasso and Dostoyevsky and Walt Whitman and Maria Callas, since there won't be the means for our children anymore to share what makes man great between them. Our main legacy will instead be bloodshed, we will have gone the exact same path that any non-thinking or even primitive organism would have taken, who don't have opera or philosophy or poetry to their name.

When domestic producers filed the petition on June 22, they had every reason to expect that Commerce would agree to withdrawal, and do so quickly, as has been the precedent.
This is the first time where foreign producers have fought to keep a U.S. trade remedy in place. That tells the real story.
The current situation favors Mexican growers and protects the windfall profits they've been reaping.
Mexican growers are pursuing scare and bullying tactics. They've threatened retaliation against customers and producers of products not involved in the case.
These threats, if carried out, are simply illegal.
Mexican special interests have also suggested that domestic producers are trying to eliminate their product from the marketplace to eliminate competition. This accusation is totally false.
Terminating the suspension agreement and suspended investigation simply eliminates any existing government oversight of imports. No restrictions on trade will result.
Domestic growers are entitled to free and fair trade — and that's all they want.
It's time to end the charade, assess the facts and level the playing field. That is the only chance we have to salvage our domestic tomato market and save the tens of thousands of jobs nationwide that are currently at risk.
Reggie Brown is the executive vice president of the Maitland-based Florida Tomato Exchange.

Manufacturer: Steelcase
Steelcase is an American success story that goes back to 1912, when the brand was first founded as the Metal Office Furniture Company in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It received its first patent in 1914 for a steel wastebasket—a major advance at a time when straw wastebaskets were a major office fire hazard. That led to metal desks, filing cabinets, and chairs—an entire collection of office furnishings designed with an eye to high performance and cutting-edge technology. The brand, later renamed Steelcase, is now one of the world's leading office furniture manufacturers.
Steelcase continually studies how people work and incorporates that research into its design technology. The firm developed Leap, its best-selling ergonomic desk chair, incorporating a patented chair back that changes shape to support the spine as it moves. Steelcase's products are made with the utmost care and are quality approved by the industry's strictest manufacturing and environmental watchdogs.

su hwan 5pts But in Korea, many netizens are corrupt this result. But, it is not prove the performance. They are just hate "Hyundai". Not another reason. They are think foreign company is unquestioningly better than Korean product. If genesis coupe hang the porsche or another emblem, they say unquestioningly it's designed "Best of best" . Stupid.
bluepond 5pts @Vne1As the record of the posts here already prove, I never said "American fanboys". I said "American Car Fanboys" which could be a person of any nationality/race in this world. How very mature of you to bring NATIONALISM into this & start distorting my comments just like the other very dishonest guy in the above named ryandarr1979...You guys must be brothers or something since both of you guys have a dirty habit of LYING & distorting facts... If you can send me a message without even a single lie, distorton, or exaggeration in them, then I would be happy to reply to you in a nice manner... Until then, I really couldn't care what nonsense you rammble on about... Again, I really feel sorry for all the Motortrend reviewers here who have to put up with these dishonest lying haters who continue to act like 16 years old American Car Fanboy fanatics without any schooling in ethics...
Vne1 5pts @ Bluepond... It appears that Motor Trend has, to put it nicely, shifted gears once again and acknowledged the Mustang is superior to the Genesis. I guess all these American fan boys posting here are right and you are just plain wrong. Sorry Dude. You really should not bash people (American fan boys) for making legitimate arguments who turn out to actually be right
bluepond 5pts @ryandarr1979You wrote: "I already said you should use both"Nowhere in your writings did you ever say this or ever mean anything like this... Actually everything that you have written here before sending me a message first goes against this meaning... & sadly this isn't your only lie & distortion so far. There are just too many to mention...How did you become such an habitual LIAR? Maybe CON ARTIST would be a better term to describe a person like you... I feel sorry for all the Motortrend reviewers who have to put up with all the filth from ignorant & arrogant lying haters like you these days...
bluepond 5pts @ryandarr1979There is nothing wrong with defending the review/reviewers from delusional haters like you by saying that the review was valid bcus it took into consideration BOTH the track numbers & road feel impressions. Also saying that you "seem" like an American Car fanboy & what you say "makes you look like a fanboy" bcus of your accusatory nonsense saying that 'the Mustang should win bcus it did better ONLY in the track tests' is valid enough.Also, I wonder since when the term "American Car Fanboy" started to mean a specific race/nationality? There are Japanese & Italians who are fanatical fans of American cars too.So it seems clear AGAIN that you have a very bad habit of continuously making up nonsense & distorting other people's writings to cover up all of your immature mistakes that you have made until now. Makes me wonder how low an individual is willing to go? Full of delusional hate & continued nonsense & more lies. Amazing indeed.
bluepond 5pts @ryandarr1979I really enjoyed reading all of your crying messages in the above. One of them even accuses the reviewers of purposely coming up with a "Sham" review just bcus you didn't like the result. Well done. How mature of you! You also said that the test was a "JOKE" & said that the Mustang should have won bcus it did slightly better than the Gen in the track numbers & had a cheaper price. I wonder if there is a rule anywhere that says track numbers should always matter more than the evaluations made off of test tracks? Also I wonder if there is a written rule somewhere that says Price should always matter in every test & to what degree? I am afraid there is no such rule. Obviously YOU are trying to make up your own rules here & attacking the review & reviewers based on them. How self centered, delusional & amazingly childish you are. Fact is, there is no law saying that the test track results should always be considered as more important than the evaluations made OFF of test tracks, especially when the track results between the Gen & the Mustang here were very close when compared to the other cars in the same test.
ryandarr1979 5pts To everyone reading/replying in this thread. Go read page 34 of the June issue, article titled "Wrong Numbers". It sounds like the people posting have gotten under the editors' skin. Ironically, the issue features The 2011 Mustang V6 and V8 on the cover. Ron Kiino does the evaluation of both, wasting paragraphs talking about how the Mustang has gone so long in redesigns over the years. A few pages later, page 118 titled "Insignificant Others" Ron praises the Porsche Boxster for easily being the best topless two seater available. The Porsche Boxster has been around since 1997 and hasnt had a major redesign in its lifetime of 14 model years. Does Ron mention it? Nope. Dont get me wrong, its a fantastic car (I loved my 99 Boxster), but lets be fair here...
ryandarr1979 5pts @bluepondNot sure why I am endulging you, as I thought I was pretty clear, but since you continue to act childish (and prove my point) I will answer you like you are a child. I already said you should use both, but objective data is far more relevant than subjective data. Also, it sounds like I was accurate when I said you are 16 and drive a Hyundai, but now that I think about it, I question if you even have a license at all . The point about what cars I drove? Simply that I appreciate all good cars, whether built in Stuttgart Germany, Nagoya Japan, or Dearborn Michigan. Simply dismissing people with valid arguments as fanboys is childish and ignorant which I can see you are both. Why elude to you being Korean? Your undying love for Hyundai. Dont you recognize your own handywork? You started this by calling people American fanboys. You are clearly a troll and further argument with you is a waste of time as I dont cater to prepubescent teenagers. Also, you keep saying "so sad" maybe you're the one in need of a tissue...
bluepond 5pts @ ryandarr1979oh & I forgot to ask you... what does your inability to understand that car tests should be made BOTH on & off the track taking into account BOTH the objective 'numbers' & subjective impressions on real road have to do with my nationality/race(which is not Korean) & the cars that you drove in the past including the Porsche??? NOTHING. How superficial & childish. You are getting nowhere by trying to divert attention away from your obvious mistakes by rammbling on about some pointless nonsense & lying/distorting facts about what others have written on this board. Amusing indeed. What a waste of life...
bluepond 5pts @ryandarr1979Not sure why you are still unable to understand that there is nothing wrong with using BOTH the objective track test numbers & subjective road driving impressions by professional reviewers when evaluating cars. You keep sending me these messages that don't add up logically like a 16 year old kid with a grudge... go look at all of your crying posts in the above attacking the review/reviewers bcus you can't understand this. So sad. As I said before, my comments were directed at people who were bashing the reviewers with their delusional logic that only track 'numbers' should matter in the evaluation. So it seems you are distorting facts again by saying I attacked "EVERYONE ELSE". How dishonest & childish. I already explained multiple times why evaluating cars based only on the 'track numbers' would result in an incomplete test/review.I repeat... please don't distort other people's writings & stop sending me these childish messages which you have started. It only makes you look like a American car fanboy unable to face the changing realities.
ryandarr1979 5pts @bluepondWhat "changing realities" are you referring to? That the asians are making good cars now?" Realities aren't changing, they've CHANGED. Were you around in the 80s and 90s? How old are you? You sound like you are 16. Mazda starting building rotary RX7s in 1978. Datsan/Nissan has been making the Z on and off since 1975. These cars have been challenging (and in most cases, spanking) Americans since the 1970s in the sports car segment. The real change that is happening right now is that after years of getting slapped around by Asian car makers, the Americans are making good cars again (all around, not just sports cars). It sounds to me like you are a 16 year old Korean kid with a used Hyundai Tiburon with aspirations of owning a real car some day. By the way, since you mentioned Boxster, I owned a 99 Boxster, as well as two Stealth RT Twin Turbos (92 and 95) and a 1996 3000GT VR4 (last three all built in Nagoya, Japan). But yeah, I am a Mustang fan, having owned 3 5.0 fox body Mustangs and an 98 Cobra.
ryandarr1979 5pts @bluepondNot sure why you are so angry. Perhaps you should take a minute and calm down. I wasn't attacking you. Quite the contrary, in that you are attacking EVERYONE ELSE. Take your own advice and go back and read YOUR COMMENTS. You are calling everyone American fanboys and winers. Its just a review and clearly A LOT of people AGREE that the decision is controversial. Plenty of valid arguments are being made. The editors say themselves that the 2011 Mustang V6 is "nearly as fast as last year's 4.6 GT and MORE FUN TO DRIVE TOO". Last year's Mustang GT beat the Genesis 3.8. Now the 2011 Mustang V6 that is "more fun to drive too" loses to it? These are the EDITORS' SUBJECTIVE COMMENTS.
Vne1 5pts @Blue "Pillow Biter" Pond. Last I looked the Porsche Boxster was not part of this comparison test. Nobody is saying ONLY the numbers matter. What they are saying is they know BS when they see it. Nothing short of a bribed and completely biased opinion would trump EVERY MEASURABLE criteria listed. Did anyone notice that on the Magnificent Seven Comparison V8 Drag Race Video that the first thing anyone sees is an advertisement for Hyundai who wasn't even in the drag race?Who cares how well a Porsche Boxster handles and nobody would ever compare a light 2-seat roadster, with a mid-mounted engine, to a 4 or 5 passenger muscle car. To reiterate, the Mustang holds all the performance cards, costs significantly less, engine note sounds better, looks better, has better "real world" attributes, and is more efficient then the Genesis. FYI I am not an American Car fan boy, but like almost everyone else who posted here, I know BS when I see it.
bluepond 5pts @ryandarr1979Go read some of the comments here again. They're saying that the Gen's ability off the track should be ignored & only the numbers achieved by the Mustang on the track should be considered in the evaluation. That IS saying that only the track 'numbers' should matter. I was SPECIFICALLY replying to these comments, so next time learn to show some honesty & don't distort facts.Also, there is nothing wrong with professional reviewers evaluating cars from BOTH objective data & subjective impressions gathered from BOTH test tracks & real world driving conditions. If cars were only evaluated on numbers gathered from tracks, then the evaluation would be INCOMPLETE. As I said before, there are already many sports cars that can come up with better numbers than a Porsche Boxster, but that alone doesn't make the other cars better than the Porsche in overall driving ability & feel.Seems like you're another one of those confused & delusional American Car fanboy unable to face the changing realities. So sad
Vne1 5pts Bluepond I theenk u neeed to lern how to speal. Again, where did you go to school and what degree do you have? I bet you have neither a degree nor enough money to buy your new gay mobile. Last time I looked, you cannot lose everything and still win; that is, of course, there is extreme bias due to monetary compensation. I suggest you stop looking stupid and ay least attempt to make an argument that makes sense. The Genesis (Tiburon on steroids) looks ridiculous, costs more, is less efficient, and doesn't equal the Mustang in almost every performance criteria. As far as the "real world" you speak of, the Mustang can turn tighter and has more trunk space. It would have to handle like a wet dream for anyone to even think of calling it an equal, let alone the best. Although, they may have it in your color, pink. It appears you are both goofy and wrong.
ryandarr1979 5pts @bluepondI dont think anyone here is saying that only numbers matter. I do think most here would agree that they are the most important simply because the numbers dont lie. Its simple fact that the numbers are objective and each driver's opinion is subjective.
bossag 5pts I would really like to know why this lame magazine even bothers to test the cars. The testing shows what should be an easy win for the mustang, but the feel of the genesis is worth all the empiral data being dismissed? Whether price is factored in or not is not even in the discussion. It is car mags like this one that have a bias against domestic iron that helps fuel import sales. Dear God just look at the cars and which one would get the most looks? surely not the genesis, dead last. The car gurus always want more power and handling from the domestics and then they get it and blam, thats not what the parameter of the testing. Face it if you want an honest evaluation based on testing, this magazine does not meet the test. If you race them the winner would be the Mustang every time, no matter the driver. Musclecar is defined by the car that wins, not which one feels better getting beat.
bluepond 5pts @Vne1Hmmm... it seems you need to go get an education bcus you seem to be very confused...The Motortrend reviewers here rated the vehicles based on number tests AND also how it felt in real world driving in various road conditions...This is exactly how cars should be compared...looking at BOTH the track numbers & also how it drives off the track.BUT,you see,idiots like you keep thinking that only the track numbers matter... HOW STUPID. KEEP CRYING little GIRL.
DLC128 5pts The Genesis won because they needed a story. The Genesis lost to the mustang in every category, including styling IMO. But Motor trend needed a story to put on here to generate 238 comments, much more than normal. And it worked. You are all here on the site commenting, and so am I. The Genesis would have been better compared to a BMW, or a Porsche. Nothing in its styling or architecture say "Pony car" The only reason there are pony cars is because of the styling. Other wise you could consider many other 2 door cars with similar ratings.
CALI-LIFER 5pts Ron Kiino is retarded!! Same with the GT500 and the GTR!! HE KNOWS THE MUSTANG IS BETTER, BUT HE CAN'T SAY IT CAUSE HE SUCKS!!! I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT HIS ARTICLES!! GO MUSTANG!! GO FORD!! GO ALLEN!!
jmb327 5pts on any Hyundai, Hyundai! Hyundai! Hyundai! (think Larry Huffman So Cal drag race). Amazing how it ruled. we need the smaller Camaro now.
Vne1 5pts @Bluepond. Yes, numbers matter for real tests. A subjective comparison is nothing more than an opinion. The reason the Challenger lost, according to the test, was numbers. There is nothing to back up your assumptions or opinions, which makes them completely worthless.
Vne1 5pts What a GOOFY comparison. The Mustang holds all the cards in performance, value, and fuel efficiency. The Hyundai looks like a girl's (or girly man's) car. What free stuff (or advertising business) did Hyundai give St. Antoine for that BS win?
METALMATT1017 5pts This is a prime example of why I can't stand mainstream magazines. I'm willing to bet Hyundai has a good amount of ad space in Motor Trend. Because good paycheck is just about the only reason that I could imagine would put the Genesis above the Mustang. Certainly you wouldn't think that something as objective as how it "feels" could put it above the less expensive, faster, better handling and more efficient Mustang.
ryandarr1979 5pts Still a sham and the editors know it. If the Mustang had won, there would be about 10 comments, not 230. I dub thee; Hustlegate...
everdream 5pts alright, if i was buying a performance coupe, i'd want performance before features... if i want a comfy, feature full ride i'd get a mid-size sedan at a year end clearout!only one way to solve the "better for the price" crap...have a STRIPPER SHOW! heck, even title it that.compare the most basic, cheapest cars in the line-up...compare the Genesis base at $23,250 (it'll be a 2.0T)and compare the mustang base at $22,990 (it'll be a V6)now, do a comparo.
everdream 5pts @LexuslvrGmlvr you said:"damikco and you fail to understand that once you spec the Mustang up to the Genesis's level you will be paying a whopping $34,215. So much for being cheaper. "I say: @ $34,215.xx it'd be the Mustang GT with some options and we wouldn't have a comparo... just an even bigger ass kicking. mustang GT's with 412hp base at just over $30,000.
BrianMM 5pts 2.1 degrees negative camber and IRS on the Hyundai and it can't even beat the Mustang on the skidpad?Oh yeah, and you'll be replacing the tires quite often, so buy some cheap ones.
ryandarr1979 5pts Lets put all 4 cars on a track together and see who wins. Then you have a sports car test, not a musclecar (or as the editors like to call this test- a hustlecar test). Then after the Mustang comes in first because of better acceleration, breaking, and road holding, we'll see if the Genesis still deserves the win due to better "feel".
Captain.Awesome 5pts In all reality, if you enjoy driving one car more but decide to choose a different car because it is fractionally better on paper (but you do not enjoy it as much, as already has been pointed out), then you, by all practical purposes and for simplicity's sake, are a loser.
nwilson44 5pts Numbers arnt everything. The simple fact is that the mustang not only out performes everything, it has better fuel economy. If that wasnt enough it has the lowest base price. Now with all of that, i highly doubt that the Hyundai's driving experence is substantially better, and if it is its not so good to where everything else is null and void. Ford has done an amazing job, to say the least, in redoing the mustang for 2011. Once again numbers arnt everything but why test them if you dont use them. there is absolutley nothing in this test that out did the mustang despite the figure 8 TIME. the Grip is higher on they mustang btw.
bluepond 5pts There are many sports sedans that can even do better than a Porsche Boxster in breaking, speed, 0-60 times, fuel efficiency, etc...The numbers may come out as more superior in the sports sedans, but in terms of actual driving feel & overall handling performance they can never win over a Porsche Boxster...The same thing is happening here... The Mustang may have won in most of the 'Number' tests(by a very small margin), but the professional reviewers here found that the driving feel & overall handling performance in the Genesis to be better than the Mustang...All the Mustang & American muscle car fans who are crying like little girls here should all go & look at yourselves in the mirror & see how idiotic you guys all look... Since when was 'NUMBERS' everything???... bunch of crying pathetic losers unable to face reality.
Stangods 5pts Ok, someone stop the madness. No bones about it, I am a Mustang fan but that aside, the numbers don't lie. The article states from the beginning, this is a "muscle car" test. The Mustang takes top honors without question. That aside, have the editors driven the Hyundai at 20K+ miles ...it rattles like a 1976 F-series farm truck. And if you have a few pounds around the belt line & long legs, the Hyundai is terrible on comfort. Come on M/T, you're better than this
ryandarr1979 5pts What a JOKE. The Mustang is quicker, handles better, brakes better, more fuel efficient, and $6,000 cheaper. Why the Hyundai won? Because it has more OPTIONS???!!! You can add that stuff to the Mustang too and ditch performance package, and will be about the same price, with better fuel economy and still better performance. Significantly disappointed by the results.
shulling 5pts So, the Genesis won because it felt more like a real sport car. I guess there was no need for all the other tests that they went through (of which it didn't finish number one in any one of them while the Mustang took them all). Why did you bother with all the tests when the only criteria is "it felt more like a real sport car"?
MustangDan88 5pts Good job buy the Hyundai. But in fairness it really shouldnt have been tested with the other three. The Camaro, Mustang, and Challenger were all the budget v-6 versions. The Genesis 3.8 on the other hand is the premium version of the Genesis model. Put the budget 4-cyl. Genesis out there and see how the the rie, and interior feels compares to the others.
Mrlh61 5pts What I said was Find a track and get 4 different drivers to drive these cars around a track. Let all four gave an impression of the cars and get the times and let us..(The readers choose the car we would want) Winners will pick the winners. IMO The Genesis should be compared to Asian makes Same with German makes then there should be a heads up of the best V6's Just an idea. Let it be what it be and let the chips fall where they may.
Captain.Awesome 5pts IBx1Maybe they only commented on the Camaro's trunk and not the other cars' trunks because the Camaro is the only one with the trunk problem.Common sense, buddy..If one car has a unique problem of a tire valve cover peeling its paint, for example, would you expect the writers to all mention the other cars' tire valve covers which have no problems? Imagine how much unnecessary space that would take.
Enthusiast1 5pts @CASIO90280Think about it. Why do you think I brought up capitalism? YOU are the one that assumed that the editors might have "cashed the 'fat' check from Hyundai". All I stated was that in a capitalist country, this is possible (whether Hyundai did this or not is not my problem). And great job bringing up another irrational point of your so-called argument: your universityYes, I probably don't understand the "uniqueness" of your experiences at USC because I'm a Cornell Alumni. Now what are you going to just bring up? My major? Couldn't you have found better arguments against my criticism of the idiocy that runs through the comment section? Then again, if you are one of them, I rest my case.
IBx1 5pts I'm sorry, just watched the video again and I gotta say you guys at MT are seriously fucked in the head. The Camaro designers choosing retro-style over ergonomics? It's called design, and it's called impracticality(the intangible quality you buy when you buy a SPORTS CAR). You're going to fault the Camaro for having a small trunk and retro styling, but praise the Mustang on its retro styling and not mention the trunk in any of the other cars? What morons you must be.
HappyGenesisC.Owner 5pts I own a Genesis Coupe & I'm extremely happy with it. Personally, I think the Genesis Coupe is a luxury sports coupe rather than a muscle car. I haven't driven any American muscle cars but I believe they good cars too since they've been around for so long. Today's Hyundai is not the Hyundai 10 yrs ago. Their quality has improved substantially. I bet 90% of the people who posted harsh comments about Hyundai didn't actually try any recent models (e.g. Genesis sedan/coupe, Tucson, Sonata)at all. But I understand it'll take a while for people to realize & accept it. Thank you for reading my comment.
mustangtoby 5pts So last year, same comparison, the Camaro won over the Hyundia. Only thing different this year was the Mustang, yet the Hyndia is number one! Come on Motor Trend. So dis-similar results with almost exactly the same cars is utterly stupid. You just lost all validation in my book. Not only will my subscription be expireing, but I won't be trafficking this site anymore either. Morons!
prmonse 5pts You forgot one more parameter in your Hustle Cars piece, thats the wow factor. I agree on most of the conclusions, but I would give the Camaro first place on the wow factor alone, everywhere I go people ask and drool over it. The Hyundai barely registers, the Mustang is almost invisible by the Camaro and the Charger in this trim doesn't even register. You buy this cars for this and all the shortcomings are ignored for the pleasure of enjoying such a hot ride.
stang06ck 5pts I cant believe the Hyundai gets the crown, first of all ANY ONE who dares to say that Korean machine is a pony car does not belong at motor trend, that Hyundai had same EXACT weight to power ratio as stang but is much slower. don't tell me that .3 seconds in 0-60 time isn't much because that would be a lie. not to mention the stang ran Mid 13s in 1/4 and the Hyundai could muster only 14.2? with same ratio of 11.4lb per HP.. that says to me stang v6 much more actively refined. then there is efficiency.... how many cars can you count that have 308 DYNO HP that can go 0-60 in 5.1 secs AND get 30 MPG HWY!!!! not any of em, and at the same time put out much LESS EMISSIONS per mile!!.yea the stang has a live axle but hm wait a minute it still has best lat G accel, best turning radius, best braking numbers WITH SMALLER BRAKES TOO, and you said your selves handles great so get real.plus best redline and torque. we already know the stang was best in 1/4 mile,0-60 and much more but i wanted to point out the less obvious as i just did and remind you that its American and is by FAR the best value. you want to know why it really lost because everyone hates how fantastic it really is and is just trying to bring it down out of pure jealousy. which is a fact of human anatomy.motor trend i am very disappointed in you.
summit7 5pts Who cares what MT picked for a winner all I know is that I would never consider the genesis as a sports car I already picked my winner the Mustang and at every chance I get I will be kicking their a$$e$
luvmypriushybrid 5pts I love the Genesis...it's the only car that doesn't look like it belongs in the 1960's...

Thanksgiving is by far the nation's most boring holiday. Even the main event - gorging on food is compromised by the selection. Turkey' tastes like plywood and the second and third place finishers, potatoes and stuffing, are only edible if covered in gravy fat.
Brilliant jazz saxophonist Wessell "Warmdaddy" Anderson will appear tonight (Thursday, November 12th at 8 and 10 p.m.) at Snug Harbor along with Victor Adkins (p), Ed Perkins (s), Troy Davis (d) and Roland Guerin (b) in what promises to be incredible shows.
So, off the top of my head, in alphabetical order, here are the 30 jazz discs that I have dug the most from this decade which is now drawing to a close...
Alegria by Wayne Shorter Amarosa by Rosa Passos Avatar by Gonzalo Rubalcaba Beautiful Existence by Joe Morris Back East by Joshua Redman Betwixt by Pandelis Karayorgis Chasin the Gypsy by James Carter
Tonight in its rawest first mix form, the Danny Barker Centennial Radio Project goes on over the airwaves:
10 PM to Midnight on David Kunian's Kitchen Sink show
Something magical:
Changes take place in my neighborhood in small increments these days. We wake to another house starting repairs or to another being finished --- and still a few lay dormant. The kudzu and politicians ruin one thing after another, and without a glance, the people begin each day rebuilding the city....and dream that their Saints will end up in a Super Bowl.
Tune in Wednesday night November 11th for our special guest D.J. Truth Universal.
We have been wanting to get him on the show for a long time so you are not wanting to miss it as Truth will be in during the 11:00 hour performing live.
Truth Universal performs at 508 Maison on Frenchmen Street Friday November 13 with D.J. Dubla and many more.
I'm sitting with 'OZ show host Jukebox Jack just before the live broadcast of Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue. The WWOZ broadcast truck is to the left and behind us is the WWOZ/SoCo stage under golden-hour sun and near-perfect weather. An ideal closing Sunday for Voodoo.
Singer-songwriter Andrew Duhon was sitting in the WWOZ hospitality tent updating his Twitter account, and I chatted him up about his time at Voodoo before he was golfcarted away to the LOA lounge for a VIP performance.
What's your experience been, being a musician from New Orleans, at Voodoo?
New Orleans played a very large role in the making of an independent animated film
Out of Our Minds Animation Studio is thrilled to announce that "The Magistical" is an official screening selection to be shown at as part of The Big Easy International Film Festival.
Wandering as near to the PlayStation/Billboard Stage as I could, I caught the gypsy-punk superband Gogol Bordello. Although I had to watch mostly from the giant screen above the stage, I could hear the band's thumping presence easily from right in front of the sound tent.

New restaurants are constantly opening up throughout New Orleans. In 2011, 89 restaurants opened in the city, and in 2012, there were 43 grand openings. This year, at least 25 new restaurants already have planned openings. Here are a few exciting choices.
Mopho (514 City Park Ave)
Just opened in January, Mopho is the creation of former August chef Michael Gulotta. This greatly anticipated spot for "Vietnamese meets Louisiana cuisine" has a wide variety of foods on its menu, including appetizers like Banh Xeo Battered Shrimp and Grilled Shrimp or Pork Shoulder Spring Roll, specials like Pepper Jelly Braised Cedar Key Clams and Slow Roast Lamb Neck and Beet in Green Curry, customizable vermicelli, po-boys and, of course, pho. The opening was a great success, and this restaurant has significant potential to provide quality Vietnamese food to both New Orleans' Vietnamese population and fans of Southeast Asian cuisine.

Half term art cart
Art Cart starts tomorrow and the theme is love....
We will be looking at lovespoons, stay busks and tie on pockets and the kinds of symbols and patterns that are found on them. I have lots of A4 sheets for decorating and colouring, but i have also made four really large lovespoons that I need some fantastic art work for. Below is a picture of the sad white lovespoons - please help!!
A Feathery February Half Term
This week is National Nest Box Week and next week is Half Term so we've decided to combine the two and have bird-themed activities at T? Gwyrdd this weekend and all next week as well. We'll be making bird feeders and nest boxes and there'll be a free info pack all about how to attract birds to your garden and look after them.
With the weather looking increasingly Spring-like at the moment it is time to get those nest boxes up before the breeding season gets going. Spring and summer is a very busy time for the birds as they have to feed all those chicks as well as themselves, so any help that comes from us is most welcome I'm sure!
First flower
My 1st crocus has arrived! None reported from any schools yet, but I expect the reports to come flooding in this week.
Soon, lots of flowers will appear on the map - so you can watch exactly where the flowers are opening first.
Remember, crocus flowers open mid morning and close towards the end of the day. Download my investigation ideas to test this theory with your crocus flowers.
Don't miss your flowers! If by the end of this week your crocus hasn't opened - please take your pot home over half term. This way you can enjoy your flowers and show your family what you have been growing.
I've not received any questions this week but I've had reports of shoots from St. Mary's Catholic Primary School and St Joseph's R.C Primary.
Please send me pictures of your class with their flowers!
Professor Plant
Spring shoots!
Slowly, more and more schools are reporting shoot sightings! Cwm Glas Primary near Swansea have reported a few more shoots but still no sign at St. Mary's Catholic Primary School in Flint.
My daffodils are about 10cms tall now and my crocus have just popped through the soil. Even my mystery bulb is starting to grow and there are buds opening on my garden trees. A true sign that spring is coming!
Take a look at the pictures so you can be sure what bulbs you have growing. Send me some pictures of your shoots or how you collect your weather.
Watch your crocus very carefully now because once they start grow they can flower very quickly. As soon as they flower, send in your record so we can see on the map where the bulbs are opening first.
Competitions. Don't for get we have two fantastic competitions this year. The Daffodil Drawing Competition and the Win a trip competition. I've already recieved some very nice drawings from Bishops Childs Church in Wales School. I look forward to seeing some more from other schools soon...
Weather wise it's been very windy for most of us - so please check that your pots haven't fallen over.

After being inspired by our Quilting Club (next meeting is March 5th), I have been doing quite a lot of sewing. Over Christmas I got out the sewing machine and made about 8 bags, but mainly I've been concentrating on my quilt (see picture above). I've never quilted before (or sewn much really), so am learning as I go, and have been loving it.
This foray into sewing has meant that I've been spending lots of money on material and equipment and reading lots of books and articles. One of my favourite things I've found out is that on February 8th it's Hari-Kuyo festival in Japan. This festival gives people the chance to thank and appreciate the needles they have used in the past year by sticking them in to a big block of tofu! As one of the monks from the temple said in the article I read on the reuters website 'Sometimes there are painful things and secrets that women can't tell men, and they put these secrets into the pins and ask the gods to get rid of them.'
It made me wonder if there are any pins and needles or sewing customs in Wales (and the rest of the UK), does anyone know of any? In Oriel 1 we do have a charm bottle on display which has bent pins in it which is meant to protect the owner of the bottle from witchcraft, and of course, pins would be used with a voodoo doll or a poppet...
I had a look in Steve Roud's book 'The Penguin guide to the Superstitions of Britain and Ireland', and whereas there wasn't much about needles (other than if a needle breaks when you are sewing it will bring good fortune to the wearer of the article sewn) there are quite a few customs to do with pins. Pins used in the making of wedding dress are particularly lucky, you could also stick them into an onion as part of a love divination, but you shouldn't take pins on board a ship.
And back to quilting, and patchwork quilts in particular... 'If a lady completes one of these without assistance, she will never be married.'
Looking at Buildings
Pupils from Raglan VC Primary School took part in my Looking at Buildings session on Monday. Here are some pictures of just a few of the houses they made. I didn't get a chance to take photographs of all the buildings so if anyone at Raglan VC Primary School is reading this, please email me some more as everyone's building was looking so fantastic!

About caloocan4708's Garage
About me and my passion for cars
I've been a car guy for probably 60 years now. I've had several cars that I can kick myself for not keeping. Like the '40 Ford that I was the 3rd owner and that had the original paint still. Or the '50 Ford that was moderately customized. Or the '56 Ford Vic. And then there was the '60 Dodge Dart ex-state patroller with HP383 that I raced in the early 60's and drove daily between weekends. Even though it was used daily I still managed to win the weekend races. This was when drag racing was for the fun of it. All you got was your time slip and maybe a cheap trophy, and the starter was a flagman. There was a couple of other vehicles I wish I still had, the '68 Dodge Camper Special D200, 318 2bbl with Spicer 4:10 gears that pulled a 35' 5th wheel 5000 miles around the easter half of the US and managed to get 8.5mpg and was able to pass semi's in the Virginia mountains. One other car was the '74 Cadillac Sedan Deville (472ci), that manuvered like a tank in city traffic or when parking9 needed 2 paralell spots) but rode like an oceanliner on the highway( you couldn't feel any rough spots in the road). Just wasn't very good on mileage(of course we weren't paying $3+ /gal then).Now my daily driver is a 2003 Jaguar X-Type that's a great little car. Has a top end of 103+ and stick to the road like glue in the winter cause it's AWD. I also still have my 1964 Triumph Bonneville T120R motorcycle that I bought new in Atlanta, GA.
My first car
'41 Plymouth 4dr Deluxe
Car I wish I still had
'50 Merc, chopped and lower Lead Sled with flathead. Tuck and roll interior.
My dream car
Jag XK120MC (but I'll have to settle for the 2003 X-Type I'm driving now. British Racing Green, AWD fully equiped).
- Type of racing: Heads Up Drag Racing(Not Bracket)
- Driver: King Richard
- Driving song: Little Old Lady from Pasadena
- Car movie: Thunder Road
