- Biography
One of Australia's leading and best loved actresses, Sigrid Thornton has starred in many of the films which are now regarded as classics of the Australian cinema, including, George Miller's box office hit, The Man From Snowy River, (Fox Classics), The Lighthorsemen, (RKO), directed by Simon Wincer, Slate Wyn And Me, (Hemdale) and The Man From Snowy River II, (Disney – Touchstone) In addition, she has starred in several very successful mini-series including The Boy In The Bush for Channel Four / ABC, co-starring Kenneth Brannagh and The Far Country co-starring Michael York and 1915 for BBC / ABC.
The Man From Snowy River performed very well at the US box office and is regularly screened on cable and free to air networks throughout the world. The mini series, All The Rivers Run, made for the Seven Network and HBO, set Australian ratings history and was a hit on US cable station, Home Box Office and was a top rating series throughout Europe. Sigrid consolidated her profile in the United States following several seasons in her starring role as Amelia Lawson in the popular western series Paradise for Lorimar Television and CBS. David Jacobs, veteran Producer, of Paradise, Dallas & Knots Landing, specifically tailored the role for Sigrid, rewriting the character to make her "Australian". Sigrid was one of the first Australian actors to have a network series lead on US Television. Along with recipients, including Clint Eastwood, John Houston and other western icons, Sigrid was awarded the highly prestigious Cowboy Hall of Fame award for best T.V. contribution to Western Heritage for Stray Bullett, an episode of "Paradise" in which her character, Amelia Lawson, is accidentally shot.
Since returning from the US Sigrid did the TV movie The Feds and earned rave reviews and an AFI best actress nomination for her episode of GP. Sigrid was chosen by SHOWTIME to write and present their Cinematheque segment of film reviews for the Foxtel and Galaxy cable networks. Gabrielle Lord's Whipping Boy starred Sigrid opposite Temuera Morrison from Once Were Warriors winning the rating slot for Network Ten. The second series of the ABC / Artist Services production, SeaChange has been an unprecedented ratings success and award winner for the national broadcaster becoming the No. 1 show on Australian TV. Sigrid was closely involved with the development and production of the first ABC co production, Great Expectations The Untold Story taking the position as Associate Producer. Over the last few years Sigrid has entered into development arrangements with Network 10, Southern Star, Artist Services and independent Producers.
Sigrid has worked extensively behind the cameras on behalf of the film and television industry, the arts and various charities. Sigrid was chosen by the Australian senate to be the master of ceremonies at the International Parliamentary Union Conference in Canberra. Sigrid acted as one of the Australian representatives on an official Australian film delegation to China and also on a cultural exchange delegation to Vietnam. She served several terms as a member of the board of the Australian Film Institute as well as serving as the patron for Women in Film and Television. Sigrid
was appointed to the Commercial Television Production Fund in 1995 for a three year term. Sigrid has served on the board of Film Victoria and was the keynote speaker at the "Arts Angels" program for the Victorian Arts Centre Trust which raised millions of dollars for the arts. Sigrid continues to do extensive work with children and World Vision.

- Trivia & Quotes
Quotes (2)
Sigrid Thornton: (On childhood) Well, I'd have to say I grew up in a very politically active household and a very…a household that embraced, you know, a really sort of active social conscience.
Sigrid Thornton: (On World Vision) Humanity is facing one of its biggest challenges ever in halting the spread of HIV/AIDS. Already there are more than 12 million children in Africa orphaned through this disease. Unless we stop the spread through education and prevention, Asia will also be ravaged. Australians can help stop this from happening, and by working with World Vision, I hope to encourage people to do what they can.

Four Healthy Community Banks Worth Watching
This bank has modest overexposure to both C&D and CRE loans, but the pipeline is a healthy 65.5% funded. This bank has been an acquirer of assets from more than one FDIC failure, so it is highly unlikely that this bank will fail. The daily chart shows OZRK overbought and above its 21-day, 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages at $29.36, $29.56 and $28.48, respectively. My weekly value level is $28.21 with monthly and quarterly risky levels at $34.39 and $35.24.
Commerce Bankshares ($38.20) reports quarterly results on Thursday, and analysts expect it to report earnings of 72 cents a share. We rate the stock a Hold (3-Engine) and have a one-year price target at $38.95 (2.0% expected 12-month gain).
CBSH is a member of the KBW Bank Index (BKX), is well within the risk guidelines for exposures to C&D and CRE loans, and its pipeline is a healthy 58.1% funded. The daily chart shows that CBSH has rising momentum and is above its 21-day simple moving average at $37.72, and between its 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages at $38.37 and $38.11.
My weekly value level is $35.58 with semiannual, annual and monthly pivots at $37.45, $38.59 and $38.52, respectively, and quarterly risky level at $41.78.
Webster Financial ($21.65) reports quarterly results before the bell on Friday, and analysts expect earnings of 44 cents per share. We rate this stock a Buy (4-Engine), with a one-year price target at $23.17 (7.0% expected 12-month gain). WBS is well within the risk guidelines for exposures to C&D and CRE loans, and the pipeline is a healthy 51.2% funded. The daily chart shows that WBS has overbought momentum and is above its 21-day, 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages at $21.01, $20.82 and $20.56, respectively. My weekly value level is $19.94 with quarterly and monthly risky levels at $22.37 and $23.06. Below is my semiannual value level at $16.08. I advocate the use of good-'til-cancelled limit orders to add to long positions or become less short on share price weakness to the Value Levels. Traders should enter GTC limit orders to reduce the long positions or to add to a short position on strength to Risky Levels.

Noni grows extensively throughout the South Pacific, and was at one time the most widely used medicinal plant in the region. This evergreen shrub grows especially well in the rich volcanic ash of Hawaii. Some of the beneficial constituents of Noni include various terpene compounds, caproic and caprylic acids, vitamin C and alkaloids. However, Noni is most famous for the presence of an alkoloid proxeronine, which is believed to be a precursor to xeronine.

I have no idea what's going on here but I like it!
Wow, what an interesting collage of characters, utnesils, plugs and other assorted riffraff all gunked together by a blue something that seems to be the sentient version of everything else mentioned here! Really neat piece, like acid mashed Escher.
If Keith Haring, M. C. Escher, and Dr. Seuss had a baby, it would look like this!
great drawing.
super cool!
very nice details! 5$

nice idea, nice work!
nice visual dynamics
RAD! awesome work and great detail!
I like it!!
cool! k haring inspired?

very interesting!!
Very cool look. Personally, I'd really like it as a tonal print on a blue shirt, but either way it's still lots of fun.
I like it...cool illustration...hope you get good score...$5
I loved the green-on-silver design, and I love this one too. This time it's even got a flow to it, instead of being presented on one big rectangle. It looks very dynamic, and I can see myself and others spending a few moments just looking at the shirt and going "Wow... That's really awesome," every time a new detail is noticed. Very well done again, sir.
ı like the illustration but ı dont have any idea about subject
Crazy stuff$
Nice illo!
incredible, excellent style and subject!

IHTMLXDomainRequest interface
The IHTMLXDomainRequest interface inherits from the IDispatch interface. IHTMLXDomainRequest also has these types of members:
The IHTMLXDomainRequest interface has these methods.
Method | Description |
abort |
The abort method terminates a pending send. |
open (XDomainRequest) |
Creates a connection with a domain's server. |
send (XDomainRequest) |
Transmits a data string to the server for processing. |
The IHTMLXDomainRequest interface has these properties.
Property | Description |
Gets the Content-Type property in the HTML request or response header. | |
Gets or sets the method to handle the onerror event. | |
Gets or sets the method to handle the onload event. | |
Gets or sets the method to handle the onprogress event. | |
Gets or sets the method to handle the ontimout event. | |
Contains the body of the response returned by the server. | |
Gets or sets the value of the timeout property. |
Cross-domain requests require mutual consent between the Web page and the server.
You can initiate a cross-domain request by creating an
XDomainRequest (XDR) object with the window object,
and opening a connection to a URL.
When sending the request, Windows Internet Explorer 8 includes an
XDomainRequest: 1
HTTP request header.
The connection is completed only if the server responds with an XDomainRequestAllowed: 1
response header.
To use the XDR protocol, you first create an XDomainRequest object. Then you use the IHTMLXDomainRequest::open method to establish a connection with a server. Once a connection is opened, the IHTMLXDomainRequest::send method transmits data strings to the server for processing. For example:
// 1. Create XDR object xdr = new XDomainRequest(); // 2. Open connection with server using POST method xdr.open("POST", "http://www.contoso.com/xdr.txt"); // 3. Send string data to server xdr.send("data to be processed");
For more information, see XDomainRequest.

Kindergarden isSubmitted by Guestfvc (not verified) on Thu, 08/06/2009 - 3:50pm.
Kindergarden is MUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Much Much Much more than the 'work' (how much work do they really do in Kindergarden, seriously). Its about social interaction with their peers. And if they get frustrated and feel alone and isolated in their first educational experience, their self-confidence could hurt for years to come.

thank you for your kind comment it was nice having you visit us
This place was adorable. Eilish was friendly and helpful, and answered all questions right away and clearly. The space was perfect for us, and very comfortable and cozy. Very clean, very safe, very convenient. We liked it so much we decided to stay an additional day, and paid for breakfast the next day, which was delicious and convenient. Kenmare and the Ring of Kerry has been the highlight of my European adventures, so beautiful and friendly. I dream of coming back!
Thank you for your kind words Caitlyn it was a delight to have such a charming young ladys stay with us' eilish
Eilish was really very welcoming and accommodating .we arri er earlier than we thought and it was no problem .the room was just as described and there was even tea & coffee available in the room .. And a hair dryer .. Breakfast was great too
Thank you Barbara for your kind comments it was very nice having you stay with us
A large room very clean and cozy, ideal for going on holiday with the family. The highly recommend it. Stefano, Vanessa and children
It was great meeting both of you and your lovely boys who were the quietest nicest one could meet, hope you can make it back sometime
This is a great B&B. Eilish is very nice and was very welcoming upon my arrival and immediately showed me to room. The room was very clean, nicely furnished, and an en suite bathroom. The bed itself was very comfortable. And the wifi reaches into the room, which is very welcome.
It is an easy 20 min walk from the city center but a bit too far if you have much luggage to walk, so I'd recommend a cab if you're walking. This also makes the B&B nice and quiet, away from the bustle of Kenmare.
The breakfast next morning was excellent. Great Irish breakfast.
I would definitely recommend this B&B.
Charming place and charming hostess! We stayed only one night but had comfy, clean beds, followed by a delicious full Irish breakfast. Highly recommended.

Hallo I am Eilish, I was born in Kenmare and going home from school years ago one could not miss the visitors to our area, they would go to a lake to fish, sit and have a picnic and even start painting a picture of the lake Trees and Mountain, , I enjoy sharing their interest in our area and our beautiful natural Environment in the most interesting part of Ireland, 'Ring of Kerry' which is world famous and 'Ring of Beara' Kenmare is on the Estuary center of both, We have a special interest in 'Skelligs' which is a 4th century settlement and a wild life refuge
I have a great understanding of people who want to get away from it all, I love travel in my own Country, Switzerland and Cruises which gives me the chance to see several places, I have spent 20 years in 'Civil defense' which assist people who get hurt in the sports field or the many cross country events like the 'Kerry Way', I have been Golfing for a few years too but as my handicap has not improved I have given it a rest, I'am a member of Kenmare bridge club as well as taking part in other card games, and of course I enjoy family life. I have prepared our rooms to a very high standard, comfortable beds and all the things that add to your enjoyment, see you soon!

Second Quest
The Second Quest in Legend of Zelda is a beast. If you thought the locations of key items and dungeons were difficult to find in the Main (First) quest, you haven't seen anything yet. There are dungeon images with specific layout of every item, movable block, breakable wall, hidden passage, and enemy. Check out the specific dungeon pages for detail maps inside the dungeons.
It should be mentioned, that if you haven't finished the Main game, you can't access this second quest, unless you create a new file, and name it "ZELDA". It is highly encouraged to play through the Main quest first though, to familiarize yourself with the difficulty and pacing of this game. Ok, you have been warned. If you decide to use the cheat code mentioned above and try the Second Quest without playing through the first – Good luck! With this guide, you may have a chance...
At the start – things seem familiar. You get your starting sword from the same mysterious man on the first screen, and Dungeon One is in the same location as in the First Quest – although the interior layout is different.
There are several optional upgrades you can grab before you start the Dungeons, and it is recommended doing as many as possible.
Here is a complete list of all the walkthrough sub-pages:
- Preparation (Second Quest)
- Dungeon One (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Two (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Three (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Four (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Five (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Six (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Seven (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Eight (Second Quest)
- Dungeon Nine (Second Quest)

Garfield the Cat knows about sleep! Kids don't. Garfield is the official spokescat of the Star Sleeper Campaign launched in 2001 by the National Center on Sleep Disorders Research (along with the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, the Better Sleep Council, and the National Association of Elementary School Principals).
This 7-year campaign aims to get children ages 7 to 11 to really understand "that sleep is important to doing your best in whatever you do, including school performance, sports, other extracurricular activities, and establishing good friendships and family relationships."
Most kids get less than the average of 9 hours of sleep that they need. This leads to irritability, decreased attention, easy frustration, and difficulty controlling impulses and emotions. School performance suffers. Behavior worsens. Many kids who don't get enough sleep are misdiagnosed with ADHD. Sleep, nutrition, and exercise are part of the foundation of a healthy childhood.

The Press Says
MobyRanks are listed below. You can read here for more information about MobyRank.73
An interesting concept for an action/adventure game with a deep storyline that evolves gradually, but it suffers from the scope of its technical glitches.
Game Informer Magazine
When I was tuned into New Legends, I enjoyed myself. When I died, though, there wasn't a fire burning inside me to avenge protagonist Sun Soo's death. I hate to say it, but the dearth of respectable titles on Xbox since the launch means this mediocre title is probably one of your best bets.
GamePro (US)
New Legends is a game at war with itself. On one front, hero Sun Soo and his allies struggle against the endless hordes of the evil warlord Xao Gon in an epic action/adventure; on another, great ideas clash headlong with lame execution in a grand struggle for gameplay dominance.
New Legends spent a long time in development. But after playing through it, you'll likely feel that if Infinite Machine had only had a little more time to work on New Legends, it could have easily been one of the must-have games for the Xbox. The combat is certainly fun, but not to the extent that you can overlook some of New Legends' other problems, like its camera issues and its short length. The game lasts only a little longer than five hours and lacks any extra features. Once you've finished playing the game, you probably won't have much incentive to play it again.
Game Informer Magazine
If I worked at a retail store, I'd place New Legends right next to Genma Onimusha. The catch is, I'd have a huge animated arrow pointing toward Onimusha that says, "Don't be a fool...buy this hack 'n' slash instead" I chuckled at the cheesy plot, rolled with laughter over the buggy gameplay mechanics, and walked away with a tear in my eye. Mediocrity at its finest!
Gâché par une réalisation défaillante et par un gameplay trop pauvre, New Legends ne fait donc pas le poids face aux autres beat'em all de la console. A réserver aux joueurs les moins exigeants, et encore...
Gaming Target
Every once in a while a video game comes along that challenges all conventions and makes the industry sit up and take notice. When a game like this is released, it makes the gaming world a better place and gamers everywhere revel in their good fortune. However, New Legends is not that game. Sub-par graphics, weak control, along with confusing and uninspired mission design add up to one frustrating experience. It's too bad, really, as it seems possible that there was potential for a great game in here somewhere…unfortunately it just didn't happen that way.
Die Anlehnung an das bekannte Prinzip von Koeis Dynasty Warriors und die Benutzung von zwei Waffen gleichzeitig hören sich nach einem interessanten Spielchen an. Doch New Legends bleibt in jeder Hinsicht hinter den Erwartungen zurück: Grafik, die Schwierigkeiten hätte, auf Dreamcast akzeptiert zu werden und dazu noch von massiven Problemen gebeutelt wird, gibt sich vergeblich Mühe, den durchschnittlichen Sound, die nichtexistente KI und die wenig Überraschungen bringende Story zu übertünchen.
Ich weiß wirklich nicht, wo der Gaul mit den Entwicklern durchgegangen ist, aber ich hätte nicht erwartet, dass ein simples aber dennoch unterhaltsames Spielprinzip wie das der Dynasty Warriors so verhunzt werden kann.
I guess it's pretty obvious by now that I just wasn't very impressed with New Legends. As good as the story and weapon variety is, the game is ultimately overshadowed by wonky camera work, uninspired voice acting, poor graphics, and repetitive gameplay. I could forgive the game if it were just the graphics that weren't up to spec, but New Legends just has too many gameplay problems to be worth your time. The Xbox deserves better than this, and so do you.
Thank God for rentals, because this is all the game deserves. A weekend renter is all you need here to experience everything New Legends has to offer. I highly doubt... no I promise you will never pick up the game once you beat it. Anyway, the game is a perfect rental and is well worth the four clams I laid down on it. I advise you do to the same....
Game Chronicles
New Legends offers a great mixture of both ancient and futuristic China if you can look past the numerous technical glitches. While it's possible to enjoy this game for its gun shooting and sword slashing fun, it is with a heavy heart that I must classify this game as not worthy of purchase for your Xbox collection. At best, it is only worthy of a five day rental.
So then, I'm going to be harsh here. The game may have it's fans who like hack and slash style affairs, poor graphics and glitches, but I don't. If I see any more games with glitches and poor quality control such as this ever again, I will personally find the developers, staple their eyes open and make them play the game until they are truly sorry. You have been warned.

Samsung Tears Down The Galaxy Note So iFixit Doesn't Have To
In an official attempt to get some press, Samsung has taken apart one of their upcoming devices for all to see, instead of DIY site iFixit doing the deed. From the teardown, a 5.3-inch 1280×800-pixel HD Super AMOLED display is visible, the unspecified 1.5GHz dual-core processor (likely the Qualcomm Snapdragon S3), an 8 megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash plus other the bits and parts like sensors, radios, and plastics. There's also confirmation of an NFC antenna and a Wacom digitizer for its stylus (yes, the Galaxy Note can make use of an official Samsung stylus).

Commentary: Tiger's own feet of clay catch him
Nine women at least. And counting.
When did this guy find time to play golf?
And taste? Shall we put this nicely? This was not about intellect. It was not about character. My favorite so far is the pancake waitress, who would go from her $8 an hour job to playing with Tiger. Tiger was democratic -- and catholic -- in his offers to the women who served him food and drink.

Will he bring back Anti Phillstrom too?! I missed his white gold locks flowing down the ice!!! Honestly though, I'm kinda mixed on the idea; but would welcome his scoring. I had committed the shirsey I had of his to working on cars in the garage and somehow it always came out clean in the wash, so hoping that that will be a metaphor of his return to Music City!!
Time to start the Radulov watch! Will the wayward Pred finally come home?
The "Radulov Watch" has turned into a full blown "Radulov Warning."
On July 11, 2008, Nashville Predators winger Alexander Radulov bolted to the Kontinental Hockey League despite having one year remaining on his entry level contract. He was 22 at the time and would become the face of the new league in his native Russia. The 2004 first round pick is a four-time KHL All-Star, has won a KHL MVP award (2010), a Gagarin Cup (2011) and set league records in scoring (254 points all-time), assists (163) and even plus/minus (plus-98).
Basically, he's won just about everything he can in Russia, short of maybe a goaltending award.
Fast forward nearly four years and the Predators have never been able to replace Radulov's offensive ability, through free agency, the draft or otherwise. While he still has one year left on his KHL contract, the Nizhny Tagil, Russia native has told Russian media that there is "a gentleman's agreement" in place to where, if he wanted to return to the NHL after his KHL season was over, he would be allowed to do so.
Well, his season is now over.
This has many a Preds fan salivating at the idea of their long lost sniper returning to don a gold #47 sweater in time for the NHL playoffs. And with Radulov's Salavat Yulaev Ufa club being ousted from the first round of the KHL playoffs this morning, now's the time to start speculating.
The question now is "how long would it take him to get back to Music City?" If his KHL season had ended on Wednesday morning, there was a minute possibility that he could be suited up for Saturday's contest against the Detroit Red Wings. However, that would've been a lot to ask of a guy who still needs to make amends inside the locker room, deal with media asking the same question 31 different ways and, of course, adjust to the 12-hour time difference. With that in mind, maybe it's a good thing that the Preds will be on a four-game west coast road trip next week. That would give Radulov time to get packed up in Russia, get settled in at his Nashville residence and make the trek halfway around the world without being in any kind of rush.
Assuming his first appearance would be after the trip, that would mean Tuesday, March 20 would be his first National Hockey League tilt since April 20, 2008. It would also give him 10 regular season games to adapt back to NHL life before the playoffs. And honestly, would the Preds even welcome him back if it took any longer?
You need all of your players on the same page come playoff time. The post season is no time to be working out kinks and ironing out wrinkles. Adding an elite goal scorer like Radulov sounds great on paper but, in reality, he's not just going to pick up that old violin he hasn't touched in four years and be part of the symphony. He'll have to re-learn it.
The week or so off gives him a good chance to do that and, quite frankly, it gives the coaching staff time to figure out what they're going to do with their lines. With everyone healthy (which this team basically is right now), the Predators have five lines worth of forwards. And that's right now. If they add Radulov to the mix, they're facing the tall task of scratching four healthy players that are dying to play each and every game.
That being said, there's no denying that adding Radulov makes Nashville a Western Conference favorite. Maybe not the favorite but certainly a favorite.
Now all we have to do is wait. And watch.
SPECIAL THANKS to the uber-clever JR Lind for coining the term "Radulov Warning."

I don't know if I can see Rads back this year. Making moves before the trade deadline is one thing, but this just seems like too late. We're already trying to find our perfect line-up, and I'd rather see Rads suited up for a whole year than 10 games and then whatever comes next.

Can I make a suggestion to extend the warning time for patches?
Reason being, it takes me a lot longer than the 20 or 30 mins warning time to run Poorjoy's. I was lucky that I had done the map two prior to getting the warning and I only saw the 10 min one then. I'm not going to dwell on the issues that arise if a player misses the warning, but it's highly probable that someone could enter Poorjoy's, get the warning, and be screwed. The map is great, one has to take care soloing it, one can attempt it at relatively low gear levels for challenge and let's face it, there are not many builds even in GG gear that are going to be steam-rolling that map quickly if they care for their life -_- Thanks. If we had them drop while players were running regular maps then they'd merely stockpile them and occasionally get some free Atziri runs out of their existing play. ~Chris Wilson on fragments.

Often, in the US, we take our right to free speech for granted. But, this right is one that is often an issue of conflict and agitation. It's a right for which people frequently must fight.

Reggie Zeil Ware
Reggie Zeil Ware, age 89, was born May 5, 1924 in Montesano, WA to Wesley and Pearl Ware. He was the eldest of seven. He was a long time resident of Machias, WA where he and his wife of 65 years Dolores, lived and raised their family. On January 5, 2014 he was called home to Jesus. He leaves behind brother, Ron Ware of Bellingham, WA, sister, Faith Haack of Centralia, WA; son, Douglas Ware of Phoenix, AZ; daughter, Julie Allen of Benton City, WA; grandson, Kelly Allen and his wife, Michelle Allen of Hermiston, OR; granddaughter, Brooke Zueger and her husband, Blake Zueger of Lake Stevens, WA; and great-grandchildren, Hunter and Ryan Allen of Hermiston, OR. He was preceded in death by the love of his life, Dolores Mae Ware (Bunney). Reggie proudly served in the United States Army during
. He was the personal escort for Dwight D. Eisenhower in which Reggie believes was the reason he survived the war, adding this as another way in which God helped protect him during his life. After WWII, Reggie went to college at WWU and obtained a teaching degree. He then taught Mathematics and Mechanical Drawing in the Edmonds School District for over 30 years. He also was a Driver's Education Instructor for Edmonds Community College after he retired from teaching. Reggie was also a long time member of Machias Community Church and Christian Family Assembly, where he was in charge of the sign board and faithfully put up words of encouragement to everyone who was blessed by them. Reggie loved his family! He spent the better part of his life loving and supporting his children and grandchildren in ways that can't be measured. He lived his life to honor Christ and wasn't afraid to share his love for Jesus with everyone he would meet. He is now reunited with his wife Dolores and finally gets to see Jesus. A grave site service will be held on Sunday, January 12, 2014 at 11 a.m.at the Machias Cemetery.

Many sites using many scientific methods are projecting vast, historic improvements for our Tampa Bay Devil Rays in 2008. Baseball Prospectus uses PECOTA to project a 22-win improvement and an 88-74 record.
Another scientific projection uses the ratio of a team's wins to the team's total payroll. In 2007, our Devil Rays led the Majors in wins-to-payroll ratio, spending $365,518 for each victory. By comparison, the Yankees were dead last, spending $2,076,904 per win.
This offseason, our Devil Rays have significantly increased their payroll — Rays Index estimates it at $43,281,250 — an 81% increase from last year's $24,124,200.
If our Devil Rays can simply sustain their 2007 $365,518 per win pace, they will win 118 games in 2008.
They will break the 2001 Seattle Mariners record for regular season victories.
But wait, there's more. If our Devil Rays do find the courage to sign Barry Bonds, and give him the same $17,000,000 salary the Giants paid him in 2007, our Devil Rays would be projected to win 164 games in 2008. Not only would they be baseball's first perfect team, but also the first team to ever win more games than it actually played.
Who ever said math and science were boring?

It's not easy being a celebrity. Sure, there's the constant adoration and seemingly never-ending supply of money, but when it comes privacy these guys get the short end of the stick. But Katy Perry figures, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. The singer made elements of her personal life public -- and in a big way -- last night at the Grammy Awards, by debuting her new single "Part of Me."
Clearly referencing her surprise split with Russell Brand (who filed for a divorce from Perry on Dec. 30 of last year), the Teenage Dream songstress hit the stage with a vengeance, singing lyrics like, "You chew me up and spit me out/ Like I was poison in your mouth/ You took my life/ You drained me down/ But that was then, and this is now." But that's just the tip of the musical iceberg. Perry continues to make not-so-subtle references to her broken love affair, but suggests that she's risen above her heartache and is now stronger than ever, singing, "Look at me/ I'm sparkling/ You will never put me out again/ So you can keep the diamond ring/ It don't mean nothing anyway." Like I said, not so subtle. I guess this round goes to Perry.
And while the single officially drops on Feb. 21, feel free to listen to the audio below and rock out with Perry about being over her former beau.
