Phoronix: GCC 4.5.0 Compiler Released
Version 4.5 of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) was running behind with too many regressions being left open, but only a few weeks ago they cleared their P1 regressions and then put out the GCC 4.5 release candidate. Now, already, GCC 4.5 has been officially released...
Yes, LTO is definately the big one this release (particularly since llvm's LTO is only available on the OSX platform). Then we have Graphite, although it was already in 4.4, it was bare-bones and has now been enhanced considerably. Also plugin support has great potential (like llvm's DragonEgg). I'm surprised myself at how fast the gcc 4.5 release came out, here's hoping llvm 2.7 get's past it's critical bugs and releases soon aswell.
Yes I hear you, but making a c++ frontend is hard and it takes time. Meanwhile DragonEgg gives more options to those who wants to use llvm's optimizer rather than gcc's.

A Few Steps Toward an Explanatory Theory of International LawAnthony D'AmatoNorthwestern University - School of Law October 6, 2010 Santa Clara Journal of International Law, Vol. 7, p. 1, 2010 Northwestern Public Law Research Paper No. 10-58 Abstract: If any one sentence about international law has stood the test of time, it is Louis Henkin's: "almost all nations observe almost all principles of international law and almost all of their obligations almost all of the time". If this is true, why is this true? What makes it true? How do nations invent rules that then turn around and bind them? Are international rules simply pragmatic and expedient? Or do they embody values such as the need for international cooperation? Is international law a mixed game of conflict and cooperation because of its rules, or do its rules make it a game of conflict and cooperation? It is hard to imagine a set of rules in all of human history that is more important and less understood than the rules of international law.

As Ash and co. are about to have lunch, a hole appears under Ash's feet and fall in. While figuring out what to do, Iris and Cilan are distracted by a Ducklett who steals Cilan's cookware. Meanwhile, as it turns out, Ash and Pikachu once again meet the Sunglasses Sandile, who apparently wants to battle them. Who will win this time and why are the Ducklett stealing things?
The episode begins with Ash eating Cilan's food. Everybody is having a good time until Cilan detects that a creature is stealing his dish. Oshawott, Scraggy and Axew run to find the thief. Ash and Pikachu come, but fall into a hole. Iris sends her Excadrill (as the hole was closed by rocks), but Excadrill is inactive. Cilan brings Pansage instead out to dig and Iris comes to track the Pokémon.
Ash and Pikachu fall down and see the Sandail with Sunglasses. Sandile wants to fight Pikachu and the battle starts. However, a Ducklett goes between them, attacking Sandile and taking his sunglasses. They track the Ducklett, but another flies and takes Ash's hat. While Pikachu attacks them, *another* Ducklett arrives! They dodge the attacks and make a counterstrike, defeating Ash, Pikachu and Sandile!
Meanwhile, Iris found the missing Pokémon, while Cilan has managed to dig through the hole. Ash finds the items the Ducklett were storing - Pikachu attacks, but wounds himself when he is trapped in an umbrella. Sandile removes the umbrella and they both attempt to defeat the Ducklett. While the Ducklett still evade Sandile's attacks, Pikachu can't use his electric attacks. Pikachu uses his power, learning in process Electro Ball move, defeating the Duckett and sending them away.
Ash takes his hat back, Sandile his sunglasses and Cilan his dish. They all come to the Pokémon Center. As a last resort, Sandile wants still to battle Pikachu. During a moment, Sandail evolves into a Krokorok. Despite this, Pikachu still wins the battle, sending Krokorok away. The episode ends with Ash, Cilan and Iris making their trip to their next city.
- The title card music changes.
- This episode marks the first time Pikachu has learned a new move since the Kanto Battle Frontier saga.
- This is probably the second time Ash loses his hat to a Pokémon. The first being IL025: Primeape Goes Bananas when it was stolen by a Mankey.
- The animation for when a Pokémon evolves is changed, the Pokémon now glows blue and has yellow lines surrounding it.
- By learning Electro Ball, Pikachu replaces his strongest move, Volt Tackle.
- Professor Oak's Live Caster: Trubbish
- Who's That Pokémon?: Ducklett (US)

Wisconsin Holstein Annual Convention Set to Recognize Registered Holstein Producers
Wisconsin Holstein Annual Convention Set to Recognize Registered Holstein Producers
And Feature Dr. Gordon Atkins as Guest Speaker in Rothschild.
The Wisconsin Holstein Association's annual convention for members will be held February 22 & 23, 2013, and hosted by the Marathon County Holstein Breeders at the Stoney Creek Inn-Wausau in Rothschild, Wis.
The weekend's festivities will kick off at 1 p.m. on Friday, February 22, with the annual Holstein Association USA's Region 5 meeting, committee meetings, presentation of production awards and will conclude with the WHA Futures Sale, hosted by the Young Adult Committee (YAC). Outstanding choices will sell from the area's best cow families that night at 7:30 p.m., with a junior work auction to follow.
Keynote speaker, Dr. Gordon Atkins, Senior Clinical Skills Instructor of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, will be the featured presenter on the morning of February 23. Dr. Atkins will discuss "The Role of Conformation Evaluation in an Industry Dominated by Genomics" starting at 8:00 a.m. with a short question and answer session to follow.
Gordon graduated from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in 1973 and has practiced dairy veterinary medicine in Alberta for the past 39 years. His main area of interest has involved all aspects of dairy herd health with particular emphasis on functional conformation, nutrition, cow comfort, milk quality, and reproductive performance. He is a Past President of the American Association of Bovine Practitioners and is a past recipient of the A.A.B.P. Bovine Practitioner of the Year Award.
He remains active in the Holstein business as a breeder and exhibitor, is an official judge and member of the Type Classification Advisory Committee for Holstein Canada, and was awarded the Canadian Dairy Network Industry Distinction Award in 2009. His interest in genetics of functional conformation led to the production of a CD on this topic and his speaking and judging assignments have taken him from coast to coast in Canada and to over 20 countries internationally.
His teaching began in 2008 and has been recognized with numerous awards including the Pfizer Carl J Norden Distinguished Teaching Award. Gordon will identify areas where he feels remarkable improvement has been made as well as the areas that still require much work. As an official judge and long-time member of Holstein Canada's Type Classification Committee, he has a passion for breeding great cows but an unyielding conviction for ensuring that each conformation trait is evaluated in a way that ensures functionality and acceptance by the commercial breeder. He views Genomics as one of the greatest tools that the industry has ever had to advance the breed but raises a serious caution that it is not the only tool and we must be careful to not disregard many of the tools that have been so successful over the history of our breed.
The morning activities on Saturday morning will conclude with the WHA business meeting and Board of Directors elections. Following the meeting, recipients of Gold Medal Dams, Dams of Merit, 40 & 50 year members, as well as Wall of Fame inductees will be recognized at the Luncheon at 11:30 a.m.
Beginning at 1 p.m., attendees will have the opportunity to tour Nor-Way-Pete/Four-of-a-Kind dairy in Eland, Wis. and Matthiae Dairy Farms, Inc. of Marathon, Wis. Nor-Way-Pete is owned by Andy, Mary and Chad Peterson and the herd includes all animals owned by the Four-of-a-Kind Partners. Herd manager and part owner of Four-of-a-Kind is Dan Cnossen. The herd is home to five 94-point cows with a total of 190 cows classified and an August 2012 BAA of 108.3. The current rolling herd average for 256 cows on 3x milking is 30,585 4.0 1214 3.03 925.
Matthaie Dairy Farms, Inc is a fourth generation, family owned farm ran by Maynard, Jason, David and Michael Matthiae families. The farm consists of 1200 acres of owned and rented land with a 140 cow milking herd in a tie-stall barn with 21 Excellent cows, 55 VG, 57 GP and 2 Good with a RHA of 28,690 3.85 1106 3.0 877. The Matthiaes raise all their bulls and heifers and sell about 75 breeding bulls each year as well as send another 10 bulls to A.I.
At the annual banquet Saturday night the WHA Service Award recipient, Distinguished Younger Dairy Breeder and Distinguished Breeder will be recognized. A live auction will be held that night to benefit the Brad Fust Scholarship fund and the Junior Holstein Association. Businesses from Marathon County and the surrounding area have contributed items for the auction. American Wood Fibers, Swiderski Equipment, Meyer Manufacturing, Tom & Gin Kestell, Bonnie Mohr, George Waldvogel Family, Tom Morris, Bob's Catering, Synergy Dairy, Twin-B Dairy, Jason Mell, Dream Team Holsteins, Milkyhill Sales, Edgar Korner Kitchen, Trans Ova, Rick & Peggy Daluge, Trans Ova and Kalahari Resorts have contributed to this special auction. A dessert auction will also be held to benefit the WHA Scholarship fund. A live band will conclude the evening and is sponsored by the Marathon County Breeders.
Registration forms for the Wisconsin Holstein Convention can be found at www.wisholsteins.com or in the January Wisconsin Holstein News for those interested in attending. Registrations received by February 1, 2013 will benefit from lower meal prices. The Futures Sale catalog will also be available February 1 online, or to receive a hard copy, please contact the WHA office at 800.223.4269.

No wifi support in the cheaper version either not too bad if it has a ethernet socket ala ps2
No wifi support in the cheaper version either not too bad if it has a ethernet socket ala ps2
Your right most laptops use 2.5" hdds, and all major manufacturers has 7200rpm drives too.
http://boardsus.playstation.com/play...sage.id=241683Here's a link to the SCEA forum with some more info:
But I can't find the PDF file that has some more info. Also, if I remember correctly, the 20GB HDD package will not have built in wifi, and the controller wont have the "6 degrees of motion" built in it. The 60 GB package has the built in wifi and the controller with "6 degrees of motion".
If im not mistaken this weekend the E3 will be aired on TV. I don't remember what channel if I find out I will post. I will attempt to do some research this week on what has been released. I think once ill probably buy me a personal PS3 sometime in March or April 2007 once they work out all the bugs and I see how the mods are coming along.
G4 is doing an E3 thing all week.
Yes I know im just stating that I saw it was going to be aired on Cable, Satellite this weekend im thinking TechTV but not 100% sure.
I ment to say 2.5'', my bad. Also, I have a benjamin that says Sony will use a 5400RPM drive just like MS with the Xbox180 and 360...
Sup everyone, I finally thought about what you get for the 60GB pack and I think its worth it. If you compare the system to 360 you can see sony gets more, and with the added HD-DVD drive you gotta buy to watch HD movies it will be the same price. So in the end I guess its good, and the other thing I like is that the online is free. With free online and the high price I can finally enjoy online with a lot less little brats annoying the hell out of me. So my final answer is that I'm getting the system with the preorder I have. lol
I'm too funny, never can make up my mind... lol
I need to pre-order one still... last time I went into FYE they said they weren't taking any more pre-orders, maybe will have to search elsewhere though!
I have a preorder at Toys R Us for now, but once my fav electronics store (Future Shop) gets their Preorders going I'm going to get it there and cancel my other one.

Craig makes a good point about the watery surface of the pizza limiting the temperature of the oil. And even if the oven does change the flavor, that by no means equals ruining it. Cooking changes all flavors and textures to some degree, but quality ingredients are still fundamental. I don't see why any fat (whatever it may be) drizzled over the pie should be an exception to that rule. On the other hand, I haven't tried it, but I can definitely imagine that a post-bake swirl would bring the flavor of the oil to the forefront. I think I'll try it...
Is there any variety of olive anyone here is partial to in an EVOO? For example, is there an olive variety that has a smoother finish? More fruity notes? I'd imagine the olives used have specific characteristics that effect flavor, similar to grape varieties used in wine.
Absolutely, they have terroir just like grape. There are quite a few places that will allow you to taste different varieties so you can find out what you like. This may also be of help- http://lacucinaitalianamagazine.com/ingredients/olive_oil_guideETA: new link

Lee Factory Crimp Rifle Die
Key Features
Crimps bullet firmly in place
Impossible to buckle the case
Trim length is not critical
- details
back to topProduct Description
Factory ammunition is often more accurate and better able to withstand rough handling because the bullet is firmly crimped in place. A firm crimp improves accuracy because pressure must build to a higher level before the bullet begins to move. This higher start pressure insures a more uniform pressure curve and less velocity variation. Even powder selection is less critical. Until now, hand loaders seated the bullet to touch the rifling to achieve similar results. This is not always possible nor desirable. The Lee Factory Crimp Die is included at no extra charge with Lee PaceSetter Dies. It's just another added value that only Lee Dies offer.

I am a pediatric neurologist who treats children and young adults with primary pediatric brain tumors such as medulloblastoma, ependymoma, and high- and low-grade gliomas (astrocytomas). I also treat patients with neurologic symptoms such as headaches, seizures, and neuropathic pain or weakness due to any cancer and/or cancer therapy.
I direct clinical trials at Memorial Sloan Kettering that are helping to advance the treatment of brain tumors. My particular area of interest is young adult patients with medulloblastoma or ependymoma. These tumors are rarely seen in this population, and therefore experience managing them is limited. At our Center, we have a base of experience to draw from and are working on the optimal treatment for patients with these rare cancers. Part of my professional responsibilities is also to mentor and teach our fellows, residents, and medical students to help further the care of patients with brain tumors.
Here at Memorial Sloan Kettering, we work as a team to provide patients and their families with coordinated care and support. This multifaceted approach to treating patients with brain tumors is what drew me to this field. The relationships that I develop with my patients and their families continue to fuel my motivation.

Take proper measurements, choose the right size and make adjustments to any sweater pattern with Joan's practical advice and easy-to-master techniques. Accentuating the positive is often just a matter of having the right skill set, including the ability to combine different pattern sizes, lengthen sweaters and adjust for curves in both the front and back of the body. This example-packed class will teach you bust shaping, neckline alterations, armhole placement and shoulder cap adjustments to achieve the perfect fit for any body type.
Meet Joan and learn about adjusting shoulder fits.
"First hand experience taught me that just adjusting stitch counts to fit bust/waist/hips didn't always (or even usually) result in a great fitting garment. Things would still be off. Now I understand how to adjust my knitting to get a great fitting garment from the bust upwards. Thank you, thank you, thank you."

What Are Women Looking For
Hello everyone. I've been single for three years. I just received my annulment from the Tribunal in February, and got a second affirmative ruling of annulment in March. I just joined Catholic Match, and have been involved with online dating for a year now.
One of the biggest values I have is empathy for others. In light of this, I would like to know what the women out there are searching for in a man. What specific traits of a man make the difference between saying "yes" to him and saying "no". From reading many women's profiles, I think a have a good general idea though it goes without saying that women are different and have different needs. But I am looking for commonalities among what women desire in men because there is veracity in commonality.
So feel free to post your responses here. Also, if you would prefer to message me with feedback, please do so.
Thanks, and good luck in your search!

In my stash I still had a Special Navy Type IIA silently waiting.
I like these little boats, and I am looking forward to the puzzle of how to fit everything in.
The objective is a statically diving boat.
I want to try a new idea for the ballast system, and try how far I can go putting components in the water,
i.e. outside the WTC. because there is not much room for a (removable) WTC.
I purchased 3 traxxas waterproof sub-mini servo's. 3, so I can experiment with one.
that one was quickly opened, and while there are miniscule o-rings, there is also a lot of air in the servo's.
I intend to fill them up with mineral oil (lube oil of my lathe..).
One of the sides has enough room in the gearbox to drill a hole (to insert the oil) and
seal it with a M2 bolt afterwards.
The servo misbehaved (also without the oil added), but I think that is maybe caused by a
malfunctioning receiver or ESC.

Lusk Creek Canyon is the most well known whitewater run in Southern Illinois.

However, this is not a good beginner run. This creek flows through forests before entering the canyon.

These ink cartridges work on Canon Pixma 5220 and they are a great deal. Have no issues with them, and they shipped nicely each packed individually in vacuumed plastic, then in another plastic bag, followed by a box. No spills.
Was happy to find these affordable ink jet printer cartridges for my Canon printer. Reasonable cost makes it almost worth not refilling existing factory cartridges as I have done for some time. I would (and did) place a second order and was pleased with reasonably quick delivery. A minor number (2) of items in my order came up short, but when I notified Overstock, they immediately sent me the missing items. Very satisfied with Overstock.
I am sorry I bought this ink; just vey watery, stains the hands but nothing on the paper.

by Kristen Schaub Realistic home theater sound starts with the center channel Klipsch's RC-62 II delivers all the subtleties and dynamics required for a riveting home theater experience. Using patented Klipsch speaker technology, it fleshes out the front soundstage, ensuring that you hear every word, every detail of your favorite movies. Whether you place this speaker above or below your TV's screen, you can use the included feet to tilt and aim the speaker precisely at your listening position for the best possible sound. Horn technology for "front row" sound All Reference Series II speakers feature a redesigned version of Klipsch's famous horn-loaded tweeter. Because high-frequency sounds are more directional than bass frequencies, it's especially important to target them right toward your ears. Klipsch places their titanium tweeter inside a flared opening, known as a "horn," which disperses the highs evenly across your listening area in a 90°-wide, 60°-high pattern. With their Series II speakers, Klipsch has redesigned the shape and slope of their famous horn enclosure, so your movie soundtracks and music will sound more "open," with improved dynamics and efficiency. All in all, you can count on powerful, "front row" sound that's crystal-clear at all volume levels. High-tech driver design The RC-62 II also uses newly machined, light-yet-rigid Cerametallic woofers that produce smoother mids and tighter bass. The specially treated aluminum in the cones helps to dampen unwanted vibrations and reduce distortion, while an integrated dustcap gives them a cleaner look and adds stability. And the rigid, braced cabinet comes in a handsome woodgrain vinyl finish. Check out the rest of our Klipsch lineup to build a complete Reference Series II home theater system. And don't forget to add a Klipsch subwoofer for high-impact bass. Got wire? Most speakers don't include any. Learn about choosing and installing speaker wire at the Crutchfield Learning Center.

It has to reproduce clear dialogue and special effects that keep your eyes and ears glued to the movie action. A high-quality center speaker is a great investment for any surround sound setup. Try to choose one that's as closely matched as possible to your front right and left speakers, so that as sound moves across the front stage, it stays seamlessly realistic.
AWESOME!!!! Written By JimT, Missouri on Saturday, May 02, 2015 This my first Klipsch purchase, definitely not my last! Larry in Crutchfield customer support answered all my questions and was wonderful! I broke it in for about 48 hrs. A 5 year warranty? Are u kidding!? You can't beat that!Then I started watching movies, absolutely amazing sound out of this speaker. I set the crossover at 80hz and it sounds wonderful and is powerful. I'm hearing things in movies I have never heard before. If you are on the fence about purchasing this speaker, have no fear you will not be disappointed. This speakers shames all my other non Klipsch speakers! I ran the auto calibration on my Sony receiver then adjusted it a little for personal taste and sounds beautiful. My next purchase will be the RB-61II. Pros: For the money you can beat the quality of the build or the phenomenal sound it produces Cons: Not a con necessarily but it is a big speaker, but it delivers on every level I can think of!
Excellent Response Written By Jim T, New York on Tuesday, April 28, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Television dialogue very clear. Pros: Size
Klipsch RC-62 II Written By Bryan, Shreveport,La on Tuesday, April 21, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Got an RC-62 II to replace a Klipsch SC-1 center. Glad that I did make the switch. The RC-62 is much more crisp and detailed. I was having trouble hearing dialogue on movies with the SC-1. No longer a problem with the RC-62. Get one. You will not regre it. Pros: Great sound!!!!! Cons: None
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By starman, Michigan on Friday, April 17, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) got my order in two days, that's quick! Pros: it's the sound !!! I use this speaker a pair of rf 62IIs and four in ceilings in my basement entertainment system. it rocks!!! Cons: none
A Great Center Channel Speaker Written By BobC, Mississippi on Wednesday, April 15, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this speaker as a first step in upgrading my Home Theater system. It replaces a Klipsch Kg2.2v. I have 4 Forte as my primaries and a Klipsh 12" sub-woofer. Right after installing it my wife commented on the Clarity of the diction and the sharpness of the front sound. I have no hesitancy at all recommending this speaker. Pros: Clarity Cons: none
Outstanding center speaker Written By Burl, Richardson, Texas on Wednesday, March 25, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Outstanding center speaker. A friend of mine has the same model and I was blown away by the clarity and range of his and I had to have one. The dialogue is clearer and the lows are lower. I also immediately noticed that it is a much higher efficiency speaker system than the one I had previously. I've since lowered the power up volume level to adjust for the higher output. It fits perfectly in my media cabinet and sounds great in our home theater. I'm Very Happy with my new Klipsch Reference RC-62 II center speaker. Pros: Clear dialogue Cons: I waited way too long to get one.
Great center speaker Written By wheeleze, California on Monday, March 16, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great speaker that really brings your home theater experience alive. Pros: A quality speaker at a discount price.
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By Brian, Georgia on Sunday, February 08, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent center channel . I am sure there are better but this works great RF-82 II s . You need to match your center channel with your fronts. The vocals are great. I am coming from a set of Pioneer Andrew Jones speakers I got several years ago. To get better you would need to spend a lot more on some fronts. and then maybe a lot more on amps to drive the those more expensive speakers. I have lost some of my hearing from my time in the military and working construction. They didn't have hearing protection then. I hear so much more threw these with much less power it is hard to describe. I need to pick up some better surrounds to go with this later on. Pros: Accurate sound and vocals that you can hear. Doesn't require a lot of power to drive. Looks good. Cost for what you get. Abel to feel a large room. Center channel is 80% or more of what you hear so remember that when build a home audio system. Cons: Size, but uyou need
Explosive sound packed with more detail Written By Bruce, Cleveland, Ohio on Friday, February 06, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I upgraded from the klipsch Rc-500 after plenty of research and glad I did. The intensity of the sound really brought the movies to life paired up with 4 klipsch RB-62ii and the klipsch sw112 subwoofer. Classic rock with 5ch stereo mode is detailed and the vocals clear and well pronounced. Anyone who claims the center channel is most important is correct. Pros: Clean crisp balanced sound adding more detail not noticed before. Easy to configure sound level and enjoy in a matter of minutes. Cons: Took to long before I could afford it ;-)
Excellent Speaker - changed the entire sound of our home theater set u Written By Amanda, Big Flats, NY on Friday, February 06, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I ordered this speaker for my husband. He had purchased a packaged receiver and Klipsch speaker set several years ago, but over time we have upgraded some of the components. He had mentioned looking for a good quality center speaker this year, so happy birthday to him! After pouring over reviews/articles I finally decided on this speaker. It took him over a month to open it up, but he finally did and it is absolutely hands down fantastic. He doesn't show a lot of emotion and hates receiving gifts, but I knew this was the winner when he sent me text message that said, 'thanks. the speaker is awesome.' A winner indeed! The difference between the old center channel and new was extremely noticeable. It makes a real difference when utilizing the system. This speaker is a monster and your standard entertainment center likely won't cut it. Not sure that is a problem for most audiophiles because entertainment centers don't work for better equipment. If your television is wall mounted you can place underneath it with no problem - do the speaker a favor and don't put a television on top of it. We are utilizing this speaker with a Yamaha receiver, Klipsch RB-81 II shelf speakers, R-28F towers, and 2 reference subs. Pros: The sound quality is incredible. We are finally able to clearly hear the voices in movies without having to jack up the volume. The balance with the other speakers is really outstanding and it makes the viewing experience so much better. Crutchfield service and return policy. Buyer beware - a lot of places don't let you return this item. Cheaper price isn't worth it. Cons: None.
Great Written By TomfromNY, New York on Wednesday, January 28, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Sound great in combination with other Klipsch speakers in a 5.1 set-up.
solid center-channel Written By very satisfied with the sound, Baltimore, MD on Monday, January 19, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) These are not small speakers (for a center channel) by any means, but they definitely sound good. I've noticed a big difference in the sound quality of these 62's (stereo & center) speakers over my old Bose set. In their defense, the Bose speakers were much smaller & cheaper. For somebody who is looking for a solid, above-average, combination surround sound for movies, Blueray concerts and solid traditional stereo sound, I highly recommend the RC-62 speakers. For more money there are obviously better speakers, but I think these will hit the sweet-spot for 95% of listeners. These things crank and sound great with my Denon surround sound system. Pros: quality look & feel, solid sound, good intermediate size. Cons: none
Kl[psch Reference RC-62 II Written By FB, Massachusetts on Sunday, January 11, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The RC-62 II is every bit as good as all the reviews say it is and my comments really can not add anything substantial to those observations. Yes, it is big and heavier than most center speakers. Is that a negative? Not in my book. You want good sound, you have to push air. One speaker does not make a system but this one will make a wonderful contributor to any decent system. If your hearing is a bit marginal this speaker will welcome you back to the world that is with greater clarity. This is the third center I have had in about year and a half. I have a reasonable basis for my observations. I am very happy with this acquisition. The tilting mechanism is well conceived and executed, simple and elegant. Pros: Wonderful sound and tonality. Cons: N/A
Just Perfection Written By Frank, Georgia on Sunday, December 28, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The sound you get are perfect the words you hear from the center speakers are great. You add the rest of the klipsch speakers with it and you hear the perfect progression from left to right when watching a movie. Pros: the delivery it gives. Cons: N/A
Big center speaker Written By Eric P., Virginia on Sunday, December 28, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) First of all let me say that this speaker is huge. It replaces a RC-500 that I had for about a year. My reason for purchasing the RC-62 II was my RF-82 II towers seem to out perform my center and I needed a center speaker that could keep up. The RC 62 does it beautifully. The sound and dialogue is a definite set up in quality. I'm totally satisfied with this speaker and this will be my last purchase for a while now that I have all matching speakers. My set includes RF 82 towers, RS 52 surrounds, SW-112 and SW-115. I'm pushing them with an Onkyo 818 av reciever and Oppo 103 bp. Pros: Great sound and clear dialogue Cons: None
Klipsch rc62-ii Written By Brian, Green Bay Wi on Saturday, December 27, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This center channel sounds super. You get what you pay for. Glad I bought it. It also matches my RF7 ii's Pros: Build quality, looks. Klipsch quality Cons: None, just need more space, it does what it it was designed to do!
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By Anonymous, South river nj 08882 on Monday, December 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It sounds good Pros: Sounds good Cons: It's on sale
Klipsch RC-62 II Written By Mikey, Santa Barbara, California on Monday, December 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Outstanding center channel speaker especially for the $. Compared to DT, JBL & Polk & $ for $, the RC-62 has a "cleaner" mid-range which is key for a center channel. Driven w/ 125Wrms PA, it's efficiency & clarity compliments JBL Pro horns (R & L fronts), actually better than the JBL centers I listened to. Pros: Excellent freq. response & dispersion pattern for center channel as measured w/ spectrum analyzer. Robust construction. Nice (not outstanding) cherry finish. Cons: Minor, but would like to see combo banana jack/spade lug wire connections.
Excellent Center Speaker Written By JJ, Pennsylvania on Tuesday, December 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) What can I say? Sounds great with my RS-62 surrounds and RF-82 front speakers. Pros: Excellent sound Cons: Huge for a center.
Beautiful sound Written By Nick K, Moorhead, MN on Monday, December 08, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This center channel speaker is perfect for a theater setup. It has great sound and is very powerful, I would recommend it to anyone! Pros: Sleek design Great Sound Very Clear Cons: None
RC-62 Written By Charles, Virginia on Thursday, December 04, 2014 Have had this speaker since first introduced around 2005 or maybe 2006. It has gone through a few detail changes, but is still the same with an improved high end response since mine was made. In a word, it is "wonderful". Choice of a center channel speaker is critical to the sound quality of a multi-channel system, because about 75-80% of the sound comes through the center channel--the rest of the channels produce sound affects, ambient sounds and sometimes sounds that denote a spacial characteristic, but voices generally come through the center channel. This speaker reproduces voices perfectly--they sound real and have a distinct clarity without being overbearing. What about music? Music is reproduced perfectly. Since there are very few multi-channel CDs in existance, most music is just two channel and in a multi-channel system, the music is synthesized and sent to the various speakers. The center channel speaker prevents that "hole" in the middle, between the two main speakers from affecting sound quality and the RC-62 reproduces it perfectly, whether voice or music. Speaker is used with Klipsch Cornwalls, Klipsch RB-75, Klipsch SB2 and Klipsch RF-52. Pros: Gorgeous to look at and very well made. Extremely efficient, it places very little load an an amp and matches the sound of other Klipsch speakers. Cons: Big and heavy, which when you think about it, is not a "Con" at all.
Large, sweet speakers Written By Wes S, North Carolina on Wednesday, December 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) For a decade I had the original Bose cube speakers. They were nice, but not in the same league as these. I always wanted great sound, and now I can have it. I bought the Klipsch Reference RC-62 II (center channel), the Klipsch CDT-3650-C-II (in-wall/ceiling), Klipsch Reference RB-61 II (bookshelf), and a Klipsch R110SW subwoofer. I am still learning how to program the speakers and receiver, but I am confident that these speakers will do everything that I can ask them to do. The only downside is size. You really need a lot of space. Check out the dimensions of the speakers and make certain that you have enough space. Pros: Sound Quality Cons: Size
Definitely earns all five stars. Written By Chris M., Texas on Monday, December 01, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a great center channel speaker. I can hear whisper quiet dialogue with the volume turned low at night. Once the volume is turned up, explosions are loud and gratifying with zero distortion. My preamp crossover is set to 80 and I think that's perfect for this speaker. I've read a few reviews/comments (not here on Crutchfield) that describe this family of speakers as bright or shrill with 'weak' mids. I've experienced none of that-and these just replaced Polk Audio towers that have the sweetest mids. Pros: Sounds good, Looks good, efficient at low volume Cons: Big (possibly a pro)
Great sound Written By Mark, TX on Sunday, November 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Thumbs up
RC 62 Written By Vince, Ponte Vedra on Saturday, October 25, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I upgraded from an RC 52 to this speaker, there is a notable difference in dialogue volumes, the RC 52 was a great speaker when matched with other components from the 52 reference line, but I upgraded to the 62 series floor standing speakers and the 52 was outmatched. Upgrading to this speaker fixed that issue, the speaker is still breaking in but overall I am very pleased with the upgrade Pros: Volume, Finish - Klipsch reference series great as always Cons: None really, just a bit bigger
Excellent ! Written By jonathan, Climax on Tuesday, October 14, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this speaker to improve my center channel over the RC-42 which I already had. They do this very nicely with much improved full response. This speaker is very nicely balanced without having too much of anything. The sound is clear and just right. I have a large room and it has no problem putting out more than enough volume. I highly recommend it. Pros: Full response with plenty of base. Cons: Weight, 35 pounds !
RC-62 II review Written By Tim, Minneapolis MN on Friday, September 19, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Have been using an undersized center channel for more years than I will admit to. Even with a receiver that balances speaker volume based on listener seating location the center channel was always too soft. Not anymore, the RC-62 balances the dialogue and provides incredible sound. It is definitely large but matches the RF-82s. Luckily my cabinet is big enough to hold it and at the correct height for listening. Pros: Great sound! Cons: A bit large but worth the space it takes up.
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By Anonymous, Germantown, TN on Wednesday, September 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is great speaker to match with my Klipsch front speakers. I love the sound and clarity.
What a difference... Written By CullenT, NEW ORLEANS, LA on Friday, August 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have been through a ton of center channels...And I must say that after testing out several, this is a fantastic LARGE center speaker...This is where all the voices have been...I have upgraded from the Bose Acoustimass system (which is a joke compared to the Klipsch separates I just installed. Great speaker, great presence, and a fantastic company to buy from. Everything was top notch. Pros: Sound depth is fantastic. From low to high...This speaker Rocks. Cons: None
Last Center Channel You'll Need Written By JacobJ, Clifton, VA on Wednesday, August 20, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Klipsch Reference RC-62-II replaced an old Infinity center channel I had for a number of years. I had always had issues with vocals sounding light and muffled on movie and TV playback. I finally decided to replace the Infinity model with the Reference RC-62 as I already had Klipsch Reference floor standing speakers with my main setup. I could not be happier with the RC-62. The minute I plugged in the speaker and turned on the receiver the sound was fantastic and almost blew me off the couch. I had not adjusted the volume level from the last time I had watched TV with the old Infinity attached. The sensitivity from the horn shaped Klipsch cannot be beat. I have never had any complaints with any of my Klipsch products and this one is no different. The price may seem slightly high compared to other low end models but you are paying for a fantastic product which will last a lifetime with Klipsch. Pros: Vocals are crisp and easily audible even over loud background from movie soundtracks Sensitivity from horn shaped Klipsch tweeters is unmatched Cons: Speaker is heavy so be sure you are supporting it correctly Old light speaker stands may not support the girth from the RC-62
Reference 62 center speaker Written By Anonymous, Shawnee KS 66216 on Monday, August 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Awesome sounding speaker. Adds so much more to the watching experience. Pros: Great sound. Brings great clarity to any movie or show
Great sound Written By Mnk, Indianapolis Indiana on Thursday, August 14, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great sound at a great price Pros: Sound, price Cons: None
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By mns3dhm, Bedford, TX on Friday, July 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased the Klipsch RC 62 as the center channel in a Klipsch home theater setup. The speaker has a very high sensitivity rating so it can produce theater like volume levels with relatively little amplification. This is an important consideration with most home theater receivers. The RC 62 reproduces dialogue clearly and intelligibly and that is the one thing that I really care about with a center channel. The speaker also integrates well with the matching Klipsch floorstanding and bookshelf speakers in the Reference line. Pros: Can achieve theater like volumes with relatively little amplification Reproduces dialogue clearly Cons: The speaker comes with 'an adjustable foot' that allows you to angle the speaker up or down if need be (for placements below or above the screen). It's a good idea but terribly executed. You would be MUCH better off using Sorbothane bumpers to raise or lower the speaker angle.
Team Player Written By Chris, Oklahoma on Sunday, June 29, 2014 Have refurbished some older KG-4 Klipsch speakers - replaced crossovers and upgraded to titanium domes on horns. Anyway, they can handle 200W and peak at 500W - not that they ever need that kind of power with their high efficiency. Have always had a Boston center channel and thought I should replace it with a Klipsch center channel when I had the chance. Bought the RC-62 II as its performance matched the large KG-4s. What I didn't expect was how well the 62 meshed with the KG-4s. Now on a good Blue Ray master track the front three speakers work ridiculously well together. You really don't notice the speaker location anymore. Couldn't be more happier with this 30lb beast - also like the little pole on the back that allows you to raise the back end of the center speaker to aim it down a bit. Wouldn't hesitate at all to recommend this speaker. I think the smaller Klipsch centers would be overwhelmed and frankly I do not have the budget for the bigger $1400 version. Also, although usually do everything via UPS and online - I was passing through Charlottesville on vacation and was able to visit the mecca - Crutchfield Store - very impressed and wishing we had one here. Fit the speaker in the back of the Subaru and drove couple thousand miles pretending to be UPS :) Pros: Efficient compression horn driver and two stout 6.5 woofers. Heavy box with no noticeable resonation from speakers. Appears to handle large amounts of power effortlessly. Nice muted look with grill - does not attract attention to itself. Cons: None
OMG! Written By bsc200311, Desert Southwest on Sunday, June 22, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) You just don't know what your missing with a big box surround sound system. I can actually have brilliant action sequences while still having audible dialogue. Along with my floor speakers and new surrounds, all I have to say is...OMG! Pros: Clear highs and brilliant dialogue. Cons: ZERO
Review of Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Center Channel Written By JK, Irvine, CA on Monday, May 05, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product!! This center channel speaker greatly enhanced the overall effect of my 7.1 system compared to the powered Vizio sound bar (being used as center channel) i replaced. Dialog from my movies are much louder and clearer now with this product. Pros: Solid product supporting a good range of frequencies for a center channel speaker. Cons: None.
This is One Serious Center Written By Mr Picklechip, Motor City on Sunday, May 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am in the process of upgrading my HTS and knew I was going to go with the Reference series (I was very pleased with my decade plus old Synergy's). Plus, with the excellent pricing on the cherry finish I was able to 'upgrade' and bust the Rf 62 II over what my wallet said I could afford with the RF 52 II. My out of the box impressions were 'the finish is really nice' and 'wow, this speaker is bigger than even really large bookshelf speakers!'. Once I hooked this bad boy up to my new receiver and RF 82 II's (cherry finish as well), I knew I had made a good choice. Very crisp reproduction of voice and room filling dialogue proved to me that my Synergy center just wasn't cutting it any more. As a matter of fact, the sound was so good with my new audio setup it actually made my 61' DLP seem small...and I had to upgrade my TV to match my new sound system...what a shame ;) Pros: Trademark Klipsch clarity Definitely fills my room so much better than my old Synergy The cherry finish is really much nicer looking in person than the pic Special price allowed me to 'upgrade' from what I had originally planned on buying Cons: Made in China...I'm a bit disappointed here because my old Synergy models were made in Hope, AK. Surely if those could have been made in the US these could have been as well?
RC-62II center speaker Written By Jay W, Las Vegas, NV on Thursday, April 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this to replace my Infinity PC351, & I'm glad I did. This speaker has a wider range of sound wavelengths, so you're getting more sound at any volume. This is great for watching regular TV, blu-rays sound amazing. SACD's sound much better through this. Sounds are accurate and never distorted. This was worth every cent...highly recommended! Pros: life-like sounds Cons: none
rc62II Written By Mark C, Lima,oh on Sunday, February 16, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) excellent speaker.Have it hooked up with some old soundfield iv's it drowns them out.Worth every penny.
RC-62II Written By Swanny2, PA on Tuesday, February 11, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great efficiency and clarity make this unit excellent for movie applications. No need to strain when trying to hear speech during movies. Pros: Efficient and clear. Cons: Average finish. Would be nice to have standard spacing on banana plug connections.
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By Jp, Walpole ma on Monday, February 03, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This center channel is the real deal,I could not be happier with the clearity and power of this unit . I can not wait to upgrade the rest of my speakers Pros: Love the look,power and clear pounding sound Cons: None
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By M.D., Charlotte NC on Friday, January 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Crisp, clear sound. I purchased the RC-42 first, but exchanged it for this RC-62. The difference was huge. The advise to spend the bulk of your budget on the center channel is correct, in my experience. Worth the money, for sure. Pros: Great full-range sound, attractive Cons: pricey, fairly large
RC-62 ll Written By Cynthia, Brunswick, Ga. on Saturday, November 16, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Exchanged the RC-52ll for this speaker and very glad I did. Now have RC 62 ll Tower speakers, pair of RC 61ll bookshelf speakers and this for center. Kept my surround speakers and woofer from an Atlantic technology set up. Have an Onkyo NR 709 and an Oppo 103. It all fits together nicely. Very crisp and melodic. Great depth of sound. The Klipsch melds well with the other speakers. Very happy with my set up. Crutchfield and sales people great to work with and delivery speed excellent. Pros: Appearance and sound fantastic Cons: none
Amazing speaker Written By Jeffrey, Sarasota fl on Sunday, August 04, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is an amazing speaker,At first i wasn't sure,It didn't sound like it should then i bought some monster cable speaker wire and it brought the speaker to life.This speaker simply sounds amazing. Pros: Amazing sound quality Cons: None
WOW all I can say is GET IT Written By Cecil 27455, GSO, NC on Thursday, July 25, 2013 I'm so happy I upgraded from the RC 52 II. It's big but the sound improvement is well worth the size! It's so clear I can't say enough good about the RC 62 II! Pros: Sound quality Cons: SIZE
Exceptional Center Speaker RC-62 II Written By Doc, Anasco, PR on Wednesday, July 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) WOW, this speaker is fantastic!!! My old Klipsch RC 52(?) was decent but lacked something. My desire to listen to better dialog needed attention. I focused on Klipsch again for another center speaker as my towers and surround are Klipsch. I know the front L-C-R are the main ingredients to the HT as I mainly watch Blu-rays with my Oppo-93 and on my new 60" LED TV. NOW my new center speaker RC-62 II resides in same location as the old and now my ears hear details that I've missed before. I've watched the same movie again in my new RC-62 II and hear much, much better sound detail than before. Pls note that I have high frequency hearing lose and now I hear detail I didn't notice before. Kudos to Klipsch. Also I must comment on Crutchflieds' exceptional shipping service. I live in the boonies (Anasco) in Puerto RIco, a small town on the west side. My RC-62 II arrived in 2 days. NOW that's great customer service!!! I will order my new Klipsch towers from Crutchfield in the near future. Amazing! Pros: Wonderful clarity, vocals and detail. Price, I used my 4906 points and received a $93.00 credit off the price Style-beautiful Black Ash; blends in greatly with my existing Klipschs Cons: Had to rearrange my entertainment center to fit this enormous center speaker I have to re-watch my 300+ Blu-ray movies again on my new RC-62 II to hear what I missed
Great Upgrade Written By BryanS, Pittsburgh, PA on Saturday, June 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was looking to upgrade my center speaker and the RC62 provided a noticeable improvement in sound, asthetics and power. Pros: Sounds great and requires less energy to produce the same level of sound as my previous center speaker. Cons: A bit heavy
GREAT SPEAKER Written By RICH, New York, NY on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This center channel speaker is very powerful....it demands alot of power.....and it produce accurate voice matching...I LOVE IT....upgrading from a Klipsch C2 series cennter channel speaker. Pros: Perfect match with the RF-82II Cons: NONE
Great Buy! Ship from USA to Singapore! Written By Michael W, APO Singapore on Thursday, January 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a great centre speaker as descripted by manufacturer. Crutchfield done a great a job by shipping to my APO. Great support!!! Final totally cost is still lower than purchasing in Singapore.
Great sound.... Written By Brian, Shickshinny, PA on Tuesday, November 27, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great center channel.....Love it. The burn in time is about 100 hours. and the price was pretty nice as well. Thanks. Cons: None
What a difference! Written By Peter S, Hollister, CA on Saturday, November 03, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This speaker was the last piece for my 5.1 system that I added and it has not disappointed. I put the blue ray of Avatar on and watched it...awesome. I played the opening sequence for my whole family and they were all impressed. Listening to the world series was amazing. Very clear and rich reproduction of all the dialogue. Very happy and you will be as well.
Awesome Written By Rick, Fort Worth, TX on Thursday, October 18, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I'm not going to go into details regarding sound quality because every ear is different, but let me just say this is a HUGE improvement from my previous HT speakers. I love them! I bought the RB-82II speakers to go along with it. Unbelievable sound at a great price. Get the Cherry finish to get a great buy. You won't go wrong!
Review for the Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By Dan, Hot Springs Village, AR on Saturday, October 13, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Product works as advertised. Nice fit and finish. Cabinet is strong enough to hold a 60" flat screen plasma TV on it. Sounds great. Good value.
Klipsch RC-62ii works great Written By Winner101, Boise, Idaho on Friday, September 28, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I just bought this speaker and have not had time to hook it up. My friend has the exact same model in his home theater set-up that I have listened to dozens of times and it is nice. BTW, he is impressed too. I didn't plan on changing my home theater around right away but heard they were dropping the cherry veneer so I rushed in to buy all new speakers. Pros: Solid cabinet and solid sound. Looks awesome and matches my RF-82ii front speakers. Cons: I'm going to have to modify my entertainment center to hold this thing. I knew this when I bought it so not an issue.
Klipsch Reference RC-62 II Written By Anonymous, Coupeville, WA on Friday, April 20, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) So farf so good, system is still going on. Pros: sounds good and that's all I ask Cons: None
Perfect sound! Written By Chad, Michigan on Saturday, June 25, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this center to go along with my four Klipsch RF-52 II's. Couldn't imagine the sound being any better. I think I may upgrade the two front RF-52's to the RF-62's just so the sizes match, since I like to leave the grille covers off while in use. No real reason other than the speakers look great. Then I can use the existing RF-52's to convert to a 7.1 from a 5.1 surround system. I have had these speakers for a few weeks now and they have put up with everything I could think to put at it. Including bass test cds I used for my car system back in the day. :) No distortion, only crisp clean sound, great choice for anyone. After listening to my home surround I noticed today that the theater did not seem to sound as good as my house. I guess this could save me money in the long run...
Great Center Speaker Written By soundlover, El Centro, CA on Sunday, June 05, 2011 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Just installed my new Klipsch RC-62 II center speaker from Crutchfield on May 27, 2011, in the shelf over my 54" Panasonic Plasma and wired to an Onkyo TX-SR 806 receiver (all 3 purchased from Crutchfield). The sound is excellent, full and sharp. I am very pleased. The speaker carries the full spectrum of sounds and the speech is easily heard and understood.I love Klipsch speakers and want to upgrade my right and left Klipsch (pre-metal woofers) with two RF 52 II (my furniture will not accomodate the bigger 62 models). I always enjoy doing business with Crutchfield who gives such excellent overviews of their products, promptly delivers, & provides good techs to speak with when needed.

this should hopefully make it clear that performance in different distros is nearly identical, especially with similar versions of software. so pick any one that suits you. i had 'realized' it long time back when i saw almost no performance difference between debian i386 and gentoo with CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4", although i prefer gentoo for more freedom and more elegance, features and tools that suit my needs.
taking it further, imho different os'es too have similar performance in most applications. (although i am heavily biased towards linux.) ultimately it just comes down to hardware power .

As a fan of the Amedei chuao chocolate I tried this new domori bar along with the pralus version... I read here that Amedei no longer have exclusive rights to this famous cocoa bean. To my taste it was equally lovely though I noticed its flavour was a little more earthy perhaps but again reading on here about the 'signature flavours' of each chocolate maker this is not quite so unusual. I thought the Pralus was a bit too roasted for my taste but my sister loves that aspect of pralus. As Im very used to Amedei and theirs is a little cheaper to buy I shall not give this one 5 stars to reflect this but as a chocolate made from the worlds best cocoa bean it is of course at the top of its class.

On opening a strong smell of vanilla overpowers the senses. Perfectly smooth, perfectly creamy and perfectly mellow, this Chuao melts in the mouth with no invitation. The almond & honey explosion lingers long enough to leave you wanting more and the sweet sensation of the experience guarantees you will. Quality chocolate from one of the best.

As kids head back to campus, thoughts of chilly football stadiums, keggers, all-nighters and mid-terms fill the imagination.
While the reality of the college experience for most people is likely more about studying and surviving than partying, we've collected five iconic movies that fulfill every stereotype about college life.
Two of our featured flicks take us onto Harvard's campus. Although very few of us ever get to experience Harvard Yard, movies for generations have used the Ivy League backdrop for comedies.
Before Anthony Edwards became known as Dr. Mark Greene on the popular drama "ER," he played second fiddle and Super Nerd in another of our choices.
And, of course, what review of college movies is complete without the most-quoted, hilarious fraternity movie of the last century? Hint: "Seven years of college down the drain!" says the chubby protagonist.
So, without further ado, let's hit the books ...
No. 5: "Back To School" (1986)
Millionaire Thornton Mellon (Rodney Dangerfield) didn't go to college and wants his son Jason (Keith Gordon) to experience what he did not.
The only problem? Young Jason isn't wildly interested in either the academic or the social life. So the owner of Thornton Mellon's Big and Fat Stores decides to enroll right along with his son.
The plot memorably involves Dangerfield's character, accompanied by the sweet but tough limo driver/masseuse/assistant Lou (Burt Young of "Rocky" fame), clashing with the college establishment, romancing his literature professor (Sally Kellerman) and bringing a diving victory to Grand Lakes University.
Oh, and both Mellon Sr. and Jr. learn valuable lessons -- of course -- by the time the credits roll.
The movie offers three interesting cameos: the group Oingo Boingo, comedian Sam Kinison as a crazy professor, and writer Kurt Vonnegut as the ringer Mellon Sr. hires to write a paper on his own novels only to be told whomever wrote the paper "doesn't know the first thing about Kurt Vonnegut."
Our next movie takes us to Harvard with one very bad tan ...
No. 4: "Soul Man" (1986)
In the 25 years since "Soul Man" premiered, we've had a female black secretary of state and elected a black president.
While "Soul Man" pretends to make a social statement about an affluent white student (played by C. Thomas Howell) acting as a poor black student at Harvard Law School, the plot is transparent.
The movie is somewhat funny, but was widely criticized for its taint of racism. Howell bungles through life with predictable hair gags, and eventually 'fesses up when caught in the lie by his Caucasian parents and his black girlfriend Sarah Walker.
Rae Dawn Chong in the role of Howell's girlfriend is a bright spot in the movie, along with her interactions with her son George, played by Jonathan Leonard.
Movie fun fact: A young Ron Reagan (i.e. the son of then-President Ronald Reagan) played the role of Frank.
Coming up, we return to Harvard, but this time in heels ...
No. 3: "Legally Blonde" (2001)
"Legally Blonde" tackles sexism at Harvard Law School with student Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon) also admitted under suspect circumstances. At the beginning of the movie, Woods is California sorority girl concerned with looks and pursuing her MRS degree. Woods' other big goal is to get back the boyfriend who dumped her.
Along the way she discovers a propensity for law as well as a junior law professor played by Luke Wilson.
That's all fine and good, but the best part of the movie is the sub-plot between manicurist Paulette Bonafonté (Jennifer Coolidge) and "UPS Guy" (his actual name in the script), played by Bruce Thomas.
Witherspoon, donning horn-rimmed glasses, visits Bonafonté's ex-husband in his tiny trailer home with the goal of retrieving some very special joint property.
After Witherspoon spits out a mouthful of legalese, Coolidge's character grabs the dog and defiantly states, "I'm here to get the dog, Dumb***!"
That's funny, but not as funny as our next movie ...
No. 2: "Revenge Of The Nerds" (1984)
When Adams College freshmen Lewis Skolnick (Robert Carradine) and pal Gilbert Lowe (Anthony Edwards) arrive on campus, there's a housing shortage. They end up bunking in the gymnasium, along with a group of other displaced freshman.
Fortune strikes when fraternity rush leaves an eclectic band of self-proclaimed nerds left in the gym. Wanting to fit in, the nerds join the black fraternity on campus, and are subsequently harassed by the "cool" fraternity men.
The balance of the movie involves the "nerds" seeking revenge on the "cool" kids, including an old-fashioned panty raid and a finale at the Greek Games. The "nerds," thanks to their extensive computer knowledge, put on a show with electronically generated music that brings the house down.
And in this dream sequence, the nerd leader gets the beautiful blonde cheerleader.
Coming to our last selection, we've arrived at the ultimate college movie ...
No. 1: "Animal House" (1978)
Two generations of movie goers know the plot -- not to mention most of the lines -- of "Animal House" by heart.
But here goes anyway: In 1962, Delta House is the lowest of all Faber College's fraternities. When Dean Vernon Wormer (character actor John Vernon) targets the squirrely-yet-hard-partying Deltas for elimination all kinds of hijinks and hilarity ensue.
John Belushi became iconic as Bluto, the lovable slob in his "College" T-shirt, and was backed by the likes of Tom Hulce (later an Oscar nominee for "Amadeus") and other famous faces including Kevin Bacon, Karen Allen, Tim Matheson, Peter Riegert and Donald Sutherland.
The movie is inane, stupid, silly and full of bad puns and strange scenes like when Belushi destroys the guitar of cameo-making musician Stephen Bishop.
But all in all, "Animal House" is a classic that can be watched again and again, if only for the trivia.
Question: How did Otter's alleged fiancee from the women's college die? Answer: Fawn Lebowitz, Fort Wayne, Ind., died in a kiln accident.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Linda Caroline
"A friend gave this recipe to me a few years back, and my family can't seem to get enough of it. It sounds strange with cream in it, but that just enhances the flavor and texture. This is a very easy recipe."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Watch video tips and tricks
1 (12 ounce) package bow tie pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casings removed and crumbled
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup diced onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28 ounce) can Italian-style plum tomatoes, drained and coarsely chopped
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Hello! I am the submitter of this great recipes. I'm amazed at the wonderful reviews, but wonder why some have so much trouble with the sauce. The sauce is not to be poured over the pasta. It's supposed to be added and then mixed to the pasta. Therefore, it absorbs into the pasta and is never too thin or runny.
Made as directed while wondering where the flavor was supposed to come from. Wondering led to reality. This is flavorless without adding basil or oregano or something. Zzzzzz on flavor.

Delicious - hearty and satisfying. We used turkey italian sausage and fat free half and half to cut down on the fat, and 2 cans of Italian diced tomatoes instead of plum tomatoes. I also added about 5 oz. frozen chopped spinach (thawed) to boost nutrition and flavor. My whole family loved it!
This had a great flavor, and my husband really enjoyed it. However, the recipe does not say to drain the grease before adding the cream. I didn't, and it turned out really greasy--as well as a strange orange color :-). I will definately drain the grease next time. I am also going to substitute ground italian sausage. The links didn't provide a unique-enough texture for all the trouble I went to. Other than that, I would highly recommend it!
Hmmm...one problem with this recipe. Made large batch for Mr P last night so he could heat up the leftovers this evening as I'll be working late. Trouble is, he liked it so much that he scoffed most of it in one go - so he'll be on very slim rations indeed! Made exactly as per recipe, only substituting spicy Italian sausage for sweet and basil for parsley as that's what I had to hand. Extremely tasty and presents well - would definitely serve to guests (if Himself doesn't neck the lot first). Thanks for a very quick, easy and delicious recipe.
This dish was SO good and really easy to make. I used penne instead of the bow tie pasta and I took the advice of other reviewers and used canned Italian style diced tomatos. That saved me from a lot of chopping. Instead of heavy cream, I used half and half and used corn starch to thicken up the sauce. This made the dish a bit healthier. Since my husband loves spicy food, I used Spicy Italian Sausage and still added the crushed red pepper. When my husband ate it, he was kidding around and asking me which restaurant I purchased this from. I will definitely make this again!!!
EXCELLENT DISH!! I used only 1 14.5oz can diced tomatoes and then added 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning to the tomatoes before adding them to the mixture. In addition, while sauting the onions and garlic, I added 1/2 chopped green bell pepper (maybe next time I'll add a whole one) for color and more texture. It was wonderful. Although all the adults found it to be the perfect amt of spice, my daughter thought it to be on the hot side. So for her sake, I may reduce the red pepper flakes to 1/4 tsp. I can't wait to pass on the recipe!
This was awesome. Made this two nights ago and my husband is still commenting on how much he loved. I made exactly as written except substituted fat free half and half for about 1/2 of the cream...just to cut down on fat. Next time I make I will omit the oil...don't believe it is necessary as the italian sausage made enough on its own. Also, I used the sweet (mild) italian sausage and it was plenty spicy. Thanks for the terrific recipe! Made this in no time at all! 5/19/08 Made again tonight. Used all fat free half and half. Also omitted the oil. It was absolutely, without doubt, just as great, without lots of the fat!
