Vanquish The Foe - All Posts BYU sports. Messin' with Texas since 1987. https://cdn3.vox-cdn.com/community_logos/50093/vanquish-fav.png 2016-08-25T10:39:30-07:00 http://www.vanquishthefoe.com/rss/current/ 2016-08-25T10:39:30-07:00 2016-08-25T10:39:30-07:00 USA Today lists BYU Football's Taysom Hill as a preseason Heisman candidate
Taysom Hill finds himself on people's minds for College Football's most prestigious award once again.

The expectations for BYU wins this season is tempered given the new coaching staff and tough schedule, but according to USA Today, the expectations for Taysom Hill are sky high. There are 16 preseason Heisman candidates and USA Today has fifth year senior Taysom as one of them.

Josh Rosen is also a candidate and those two will meet on September 17th in Provo in what will be an absolute showdown. Rosen is the only player on the list that BYU will face but there are many other familiar names to College Football fans. Standford running back Christian McCaffrey, LSU running back Leonard Fournette and Clemson quarterback Desaun Watson all made the cut.

There is no doubt that Taysom struggled to be an efficient passer early on in his career but in his last six games he has looked great both passing and running the football. Taysom is 109 of 166 (65.7 completion %) with 1,243 yards, 8 touchdowns, 4 Interceptions throwing the ball in his last six games.

If he can keep those numbers throwing and continue to do what everyone knows he is capable of running the football, he will be on the Heisman watch list for many weeks to come.
 http://www.vanquishthefoe.com/2016/8/25/12644948/usa-today-byu-football-taysom-hill-preseason-heisman-candidate Samuel Hiatt 2016-08-24T11:58:37-07:00 2016-08-24T11:58:37-07:00 New poll shows the most popular team in the state of Utah is...Utah
And, like you'd expect, demographics matter

Thanks to a weird presidential election that might have Utah become reasonably contested for once, the state is getting a bit more attention from political pollsters than it typically does. And one polling outfit decided to have a little fun once they were finished with their presidential questions, and asked about what the people REALLY want to know about: college football.

Forget who Utahns like for President. Who is their favorite college football team?

Well, if this new Public Policy Polling report is accurate, it's actually Utah.

Utah wins out over BYU when it comes to college sports loyalties in the state, 32/26. Utah State is third at 16%, followed by Weber State at 4%, Southern Utah at 3%, and Utah Valley at 2%.

This will probably really shock everybody, but demographics mattered quite a bit, as far as local football team preference is concerned. Again, from the report:

There are massive political and religious divides on college loyalty. Among Democrats Utah leads with 54% to 15% for Utah State, with BYU only tied for third with Utah Valley at 5%. But among Republicans BYU wins out with 40% to 21% for Utah, and 15% for Utah State. The political divide mirrors the religious split- among Mormons, BYU leads with 40% to 20% for Utah and 17% for Utah State. But among non-Mormons Utah romps with 55% to 14% for Utah State with BYU registering at only 1%.

I'm not from Utah, so it's entirely possible I'm off-base here, but I would have expected BYU to do a little bit better among LDS residents in Utah. If this data is accurate though, the religious and political splits between BYU and Utah fans might be more dramatic than with any other local rivalry. It's part of what makes the Holy War particularly explosive, but also cool and unique.

Greg Welch of Loyal Cougars pointed out to me that BYU actually held a slim 35/33 advantage when PPP conducted a similar poll back in 2012.

Utah has been the more successful program in recent memory, and Utah State has recently enjoyed a bit of a program resurgence, so those two programs getting stronger local fan support makes some sense. If BYU is able to string together a few big seasons, perhaps this changes a bit.

Of course, if you're a political junkie, or are dying to know what the approval rating for Sausage McMuffins or alcohol is in the state of Utah, you can read the entire report here.

Hear Taysom Hill explain how the fans played a pivotal role in his decision to remain at BYU.

The week after Taysom Hill went down with a Lisfranc injury at Nebraska, BYU fans were still riding the emotional roller coaster of backup quarterback Tanner Mangum's Miracle at Memorial and the news that Hill had suffered the third season-ending injury of his career.

Although immersed in the elation and national attention that came along with the last-second Hail Mary pass that broke the Cornhusker's 29-year home opener win streak, BYU fans wanted to find a way to let Taysom to know they had not forgotten him. Thankfully, the ROC, BYU's faithful student section, made a plan—and that plan paid off.

Hope springs eternal at most college football home openers around the country, but the feeling in LaVell Edwards Stadium at kickoff against recent rival Boise State was especially electric. All eyes were on Tanner Mangum. The freshman had just pulled off one of the most memorable wins in BYU history—could he do it again?

Somewhere, away from the noise and excitement at LES, Taysom Hill sat on a couch with his wife Emily, recovering from surgery and watching what should have been his moment.

But down 24-14 at the end of the third quarter, it looked like maybe the magic was running out. Suddenly, signs that read "4 Taysom" flooded the student section, along with chants of "Taysom, Taysom!"

We love you Taysom. pic.twitter.com/PfhZ4ncKBi
— The Roar Of Cougars (@byuROC) September 13, 2015

It was a small gesture, but one that showed the respect and appreciation that all of Cougar Nation felt for their senior quarterback. It also created a spark for the players on the field to get the win for Taysom as they scored 21 unanswered points in the fourth quarter, including another Hail Mary pass and a thrilling pick six.

But with Hill's radio silence after his injury, no one quite knew how that tribute affected him or his decision to return to BYU. Until now.

On the heels of Tuesday's announcement that Taysom Hill will be the starting quarterback, BYU released a video in which Hill explains why he chose to return for his final season—and it has a lot to do with the loyal, passionate fans who fill LaVell Edwards Stadium each week. Hear Taysom explain what it was like for him to see the sea of number 4 during the Boise State game, and how it ultimately played a big role in his decision to return to BYU.

— BYU Cougars (@BYUCougars) August 24, 2016

On September 17, Taysom Hill will get his moment when he leads his team onto their home field in front of 60,000 loyal, hopeful fans. Wearing a new number 7 in support of his late brother, and with the support of Cougar Nation behind him, it should be a night to remember. As Taysom will tell you, there's no place like home.

DE-FENSE! DE-FENSE! DE-FENSE!

New BYU Football defensive coordinator Ilaisa Tuiaki begins to fill in the shoes of Bronco Mendenhall. Mendenhall caused disagreements among Cougar fans on every front except one — Bronco knew his stuff on the defensive side of the ball.

Tuiaki has already made a big change from the Bronco era. The Cougars are now playing a 4-3 defensive scheme. Will BYU keep points off the board in 2016?

PLUS, if you are a subscriber to the podcast you would get a bonus podcast this week. I had the pleasure of discussing the announcement of Taysom Hill as the starting quarterback with my Dad. Subscribe now and check that out!

Perhaps BYU's most famous alum is reportedly getting into the game

Everybody and their brother is getting involved when it comes to politicking for Big 12 expansion. Houston has the Governor of Texas tweeting his support. Cincinnati has the Governor of Ohio reaching out. Memphis has...uh, Justin Timberlake. The list goes on.

BYU hasn't had anybody with that level of star power reach out yet, but that may have changed, as BYU's most powerful alum is reportedly now making phone calls on behalf of the Cougars.

No, not Ken Jennings. I'm talking about Mitt Romney.

According to Kirk Bohls at the Austin American-Statesman, the former presidential candidate is lending a hand and hitting the phones. Per his latest column:

Bob Bowlsby remains very mum about the process that could lead to Big 12 expansion, but one Big 12 school official said 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has called power brokers, including Oklahoma State's T. Boone Pickens, lobbying for support for BYU to join the conference. Romney is a BYU grad.

Laugh if you want to, but that seems smart to us. Romney has a previous relationship wth Pickens, and if there is anybody who has the credibility to advocate for BYU's interests among this group, it might be him. After all, every Big 12 state except for Iowa voted for the guy, and maybe that matters for something, even the more progressive halls of university administration.

If everybody else is calling in their political big guns or famous alumni, why can't the Cougars?

Will it be enough? Who knows. But it probably can't hurt.

 http://www.vanquishthefoe.com/2016/8/23/12618582/byu-football-big-12-expansion-wait-mitt-romney-is-here-too Matt Brown 2016-08-23T16:04:36-07:00 2016-08-23T16:04:36-07:00 Iowa State's president said he's getting emails about BYU's Big 12 hopes. Here's what folks are sending:
Not all voices concerning BYU are negative ones, it would seem.

Last week, a Big 12 university president made a bit of news when he referred specifically to BYU's hopes to join the conference. In an interview with the Iowa State school newspaper, Iowa State President Steven Leath said, via the Salt Lake Tribune:

"I'm getting more input from individuals on BYU than any other school," Leath said.

...

"I am getting considerable input on both sides of the issue," he said. [BYU] is a school of integrity, they play by the rules, quality program, and people that have been there had great experiences and say we should consider BYU."

But, the president continued, referring to concerns expressed recently by LGBTQ advocacy groups about BYU's Honor Code, "I am getting an equal number that send me their Honor Code, their [angst] with a number of their social issues.

"And then there is a smaller group that says from a logistical standpoint, the fact that they don't compete on Sundays, the complexity especially of schools as far away as West Virginia make it unworkable."

So, that's pretty interesting, and a rare moment of candor from an administrator. What sorts of feedback might they be getting? After all, Big 12 presidents probably aren't checking message boards, their Twitter mentions, or a lot of blogs, but they probably are at least checking their email.

So I filed an open records request for every email sent to Steven Leath that discussed BYU's Big 12 candidacy from August 1 through August 17 (the date of the interview).

It would appear that most of the feedback President Leath was receiving happened well before the 1st of August, and an additional request will be filed for those other emails. Iowa State did send us two emails, which I will publish below. This story will be updated as I receive additional emails.

Here's the first email sent, on August 9th, titled "Concerning LGBT + Tolerance and possible Big 12 Expansion:

This story was also shared on CougarBoard. While this writer is just one of many possible voices, one speaking of the potential power of sports to help bridge gaps of understanding with religion, sexual orientation or politics seems like a powerful one.

The second email, dated August 12th, is titled "An experience at BYU":

Now, this email may not convince somebody especially concerned about LGBT issues, but it certainly speaks positively to the professionalism and compassion of the BYU football staff and offices. No matter what, that's a very nice thing to do.

These two letters, unquestionably, can't represent the entirety of feedback that President Leath is getting. It would appear that much of it must be occurring outside the scope of his school email. And that correspondence is likely to have a limited effect on his decision-making, if at all, so please don't take this post as an invitation to start a coordinated email campaign.

But if nothing else, this at least shows not every voice in this discussion is negative towards BYU. And, given the story that thrust BYU and LGBT issues into the public eye was posted on August 8, the fact that no outwardly negative emails turned up does seem of note.

 How exactly this saga will play out, of course, very much remains to be seen.

Jess and Mary put the coaching spotlight on Steve Clark, and catch up with one of their favorite Cougar fans.

It's week 32 of Cougs on Cougs, and the BYU Football season is a mere 11 days away! Seems hard to believe, but the eight-month long offseason is just about over. In another Cougs and Coaches segment, we spotlight new tight ends coach Steve Clark!

We take you through his coaching journey, which includes in-state stops at Provo High School, Utah, Southern Utah University, and Weber State, plus how he finally ended up at BYU — Spoiler Alert: Ed Lamb played a big part. Coach Clark may not be the biggest guy on the field (he's 5'3''), but he might have the biggest heart.

It might surprise you to hear who he credits with the success of his coaching career! We can't wait to see how his tight ends fair in this new offense.

Me: "What do you do outside of football?"

We invited one of BYU's most loyal, passionate fans, Pat Hammond, to share about her unique way of counting down to kick-off against Arizona. One of Pat's favorite things is taking photos with BYU players (checkout her Twitter hashtag, #PlayersWithPat).

Starting with number 99, Pat has been sharing photos of her with current and former players with jersey numbers that correlate with the days left until the football season.

You can follow along with her hashtag, #PatPreparesforPhoenix (you know we love that alliteration)!

Finally, we round up this week's news from the BYU social mediasphere in our Talk of the Town segment, including a team-bonding campout for the BYU Football team, outstanding finishes for a couple of former Cougars in the Rio Olympics, a new and exciting BYU Hoops commit, and details on a new radio show for fans called Coordinators Corner!

Don't worry — we'll talk about Taysom being named the starter on next week's show (of course that came out as we were uploading), and get you all sorts of ready for the Cactus Kickoff!

Bonus: Here's that video Mary was going on about, of the team singing the fight song. If it doesn't get you a little more pumped for football season, check your pulse.

Taysom may have a new number, but his position on the depth chart will remain #1

Apart from Big 12 expansion, the biggest question of the offseason was who would end up at BYU's starting QB. Today, that question has been answered, as Ty Detmer announced after practice that Taysom Hill has won the job and will start day one against Arizona.

The question now becomes whether or not Tanner will see playing time regardless of Taysom's performance. For now, at least we know who is first string.

Ty Detmer said Tanner mangum handled decision well
— Jay Drew (@drewjay) August 23, 2016

Both quarterbacks are fan favorites and even though the competition hasn't seemed to cause controversy among the team, or even the quarterbacks, fans have certainly been emotional about who they want to start.

BYU head coach Kalani Sitake added that Mangum will not redshirt this season, and will see time as a backup QB.

Sitake says Tanner Mangum will not be redshirted, will play as the backup quarterback.
— Greg Wrubell (@gregwrubell) August 23, 2016

Having two, high level QB options is always a big plus, especially given Taysom Hill's injury history. If Hill is healthy, he's one of the most exciting and dynamic quarterbacks in all of college football, and it's not hard to see why the coaches decided to go with him to start the season.

Comrie not satisfied with just being NHL draft pick
For most, being drafted by a professional sports franchise would equal success.
It would mean they've made it.
Eric Comrie isn't "most."
"It makes me hungrier," Comrie said. "I want to work harder. I have to work every single day to beat out guys for the starting job."
Comrie, a Newport Beach resident, was drafted by the Winnipeg Jets with the 59th pick in the 2013 NHL Draft, held June 30 in Newark, N.J.
Comrie, whose amateur coaches describe him as "a fantastic athlete" and a potential Hall of Famer, did let his mind wander for a moment during the draft, before snapping back into reality.
"I didn't really know either way, but my agent said first or second round," Comrie said of when he would be drafted. "I was just excited to hear my name called."
That excitement soon died. Comrie is back in business mode.
Development camp for the 18-year old is underway this week. He will return to his native Canada next week for more training, and then back to the Western Hockey League to play with Tri-City, a junior hockey league based in Canada and the U.S.
Essentially, he's made it, but he hasn't made it.
"The average goalie makes it to the NHL around 24 but it depends on the player and when the team thinks they're ready," Comrie said. "Most people play in junior leagues, then the AHL, then usually the NHL."
The developmental tactics employed by the NHL are similar to those used by Major League Baseball. Draftees often continue to play on a junior level, hoping to hone their skills in preparation of their call up to the big stage.
However, with the NHL, draftees are allowed to go to college after being drafted, which is not the case with baseball. Prospects instead enter teams' farm systems in different locations around the country.
If draftees are not signed within three years by the team that drafted them, they can reenter their names into the draft.
Comrie, whose two older brothers Mike and Paul played in the NHL, has no plans of exploring that avenue.
"I want to be signed by the Jets," he said. "I'm super excited to be part of such a great organization."
But Comrie knows he can't rush it. His immediate goal is to acquire an aspect of the game that proves difficult for a youngster.
"I want to gain more experience as starting goalie. As you play more, things seem more in control and the game will start to slow down. I just need to gain that experience."

Ahmed Alabadi
October 9, 2012
An Iraqi poet used the power of his words to cheat his own people out of more than $2 million.
Audio Transcript
Mollie Halpern: An Iraqi poet used the power of his words to cheat his own people out of more than $2 million.
Philip Reed: They said their lives were completely ruined by what he did.
Halpern: I'm Mollie Halpern of the FBI, and this is Gotcha, the Bureau's closed case of the week. Ahmed Alabadi, a dual citizen of Iraq and the United States, persuaded about 3,000 Iraqis living in the U.S. and overseas to invest in him and his company, Fedek Group. Alabadi promised he would double their money in just eight to 10 months. Alabadi and his associates also claimed he was helping to re-build Iraq. Case Agent Philip Reed of the Detroit Division says…
Reed: They definitely used the economic condition of Iraq to tug at people's heartstrings.
Halpern: Alabadi's investment fraud scheme was mostly a cash-only operation—making it a challenge to track the money. Agents got a search warrant for Alabadi's e-mail account and discovered exchanges that showed…
Reed: …that he was planning a scheme to defraud investors.
Halpern: Alabadi was sentenced to prison for nearly five years on wire fraud charges. He must also pay more than $2 million in restitution.

Ferrari 458 Spider

The car represents "the world's first mid-rear engined berlinetta equipped with a retractable hard top" with power extracted from the same naturally aspirated, direct injection 4.5-litre V8 found in the hardtop version.
The Ferrari 458 Spider is also using the same dual cluth F1 style transmission as the 458 Italia, but according to the company, certain features like the accelerator pedal mapping and the damping of the multilink suspension have been re-tuned in order to assure maximum pleasure and sportiness when driving with the top down.
The folding hard top used by the Ferrari 458 Spider (which weights 25 less than a traditional

Padron-Glass has been empowered at Monmouth
Barry McNamara
View High Resolution Version
Simone Padron-Glass will not get to enjoy the entire four-year Monmouth College experience, but she has not been shortchanged in making academic discoveries and learning about herself.
"Monmouth has become a second home to me," said Padron-Glass, who transferred from Lincoln College in 2010. "I've gone from not knowing anyone to making great friends on the swim team. I really cherish the relationships I've formed with some of my professors. Fred Witzig (history), Trudi Peterson (communication studies) and Annika Hagley (political science) have all been my mentors. Working with them has really opened my eyes. I know I can always do more, and I can always learn more, and they've helped me to see that I'm just as good as anyone else. I've struggled academically in the past, but they've helped me see that I'm of value. There are just so many good people here."
Related to her struggles, Padron-Glass has taken advantage of Monmouth's support system for students.
"Everywhere I go, there are people who care about you and want to help you," she said. "And it makes you want to help them and be a part of something special. I love the family feeling that's all around at Monmouth."
Padron-Glass said one of her MC friends who has graduated told her, "I have a feeling that I don't want to leave here."
"I think that says something about this place," she said. "It strives for community."
Athletics were an entry into the social scene for the fifth-year senior, who appreciates the role they play on campus.
"I not only know swimmers, but I know a lot of the women's basketball team, and the football team – they have some genuinely nice boys," said Padron-Glass, who is also a member of the women's water polo team. "I like the way the teams support each other. I have friends at other liberal arts schools, and the athletics there are very minor. I am proud to be a part of a liberal arts college that strives for excellence athletically."
Padron-Glass was asked what the phrase "liberal arts" means to her.
"To me, it means a diverse education. We don't just learn through reading and writing, but also movies, like the history through film class that Professor (Bill) Urban teaches. That's a great class for a visual learner like me. I like the way the history classes I've taken really focus in on the specifics of a subject, like the South before the Civil War, and I've enjoyed the political science course, 'Political Geography.' Our professors can make a whole course out of those specifics, like pirates, and they have such knowledge of their field that a semester's not even enough to cover it all."
As she was completing her associate's degree at Lincoln, Padron-Glass chose Monmouth over UW-Whitewater because a friend was also planning to attend. The friend chose another school at the last minute, but Padron-Glass is glad she stuck with her decision.
She is majoring in history and women's studies, but figures to be a bit outside of those disciplines if she is able to achieve her short-range career goal – being an adventure tour guide.
"I'd like to guide backpack tours of Europe, or maybe biking trips in Washington, D.C. – something along those lines," she said.
With regard to women's studies, Padron-Glass has had a lifelong connection to the discipline, being named for one of the founders of the feminist movement, Simone de Beauvoir.
"I never thought to take it that seriously, but through Trudi Peterson, I've learned to tie how I was brought up into what it means to be a woman today," she said.
Through the increasingly common "Slut Walks" – a form of protest against sexual violence that supports rape victims – Padron-Glass says she has learned "how you can take something around you that was meant to hurt you and change it into a symbol of strength."
Like other MC students, Padron-Glass enjoys departing from her major to take courses in the college's integrated studies curriculum. A course in economic development, taught by Witzig, she said, "completely changed my life. … It helped me find out what I was good at. We really delved into a world problem – how to solve poverty – and the class was a really positive influence for me."

Historian Frank Couvares on the Hollywood-China connectionHistorians in the News
tags: China, Beijing, Hollywood, movies, Chinese Communist Party, Frank Couvares
[Hollywood studios are increasingly editing their movies to cater to the Chinese market.]
...Frank Couvares, a professor of history and American Studies at Massachusetts' Amherst College, said that rather than something new, Hollywood's readiness to cater to Chinese demands on content reflects business practices the American film industry has had in place for more than seven decades.
"If back in the 1930s or '40s the French objected to portraying the Foreign Legion as being overly harsh on Africans, or the British were unhappy that they were being shown as too colonialistic, then Hollywood would make the edits it needed to market its product," he said.
Still, the scope of this latest iteration seems to dwarf that of its predecessors, not only because China's economic and political clout is so immense — successive years of GDP growth rates around 8- 10 percent have made its economy the second largest in the world — but also because the country's communist masters seem obsessed by the way Beijing is perceived abroad.

I really like this series. I am new to manga/graphic novel so I don't have a large catalog to compare but I find The Earl and the Fairy fun and interesting. Volume 3 has the same sort of interactions of main characters (the earl is flirty and shady) but with a new back story that is great. I am excited to read volume 4 to see how this back story will end! If you liked the first two volumes I am sure you will enjoy this one.
The Earl & the Fairy is an amazing series! After reading the first two volumes, I couldn't stop there, so much happens and you're left wondering what happens in the next manga. In this volume you will see a little more of Edgar's attempt to get his partner Lydia to have a little affection for him. Oh, and one more thing. I was extremely happy to see Raven smile and look happy for once! :D Want to see Raven NOT look intimidating once? then read this volume!
I really enjoyed part 1 and 2 so I had to get #3 and I will be getting #4. The storyline is great, even though he is not a believer per se he knows the Fairy Doctor has helped him out tremendously. To her chagrin she is now linked to the Earl as they go about their new quests.
Series getting very interesting. Art as usual is pretty good.
Story is good, but not compelling enough to make me want to buy future volumes. Great premise that keeps falling flat.

Apple's iPad has iPhone OS, and HP's upcoming slate has webOS. For similar devices from other hardware makers without the same software chops, Google's Android is starting to seem like the weapon of choice. The folks at Shufflegazine say that earlier today, Acer CEO Gianfranco Lanci briefly demonstrated a 7" tablet based on Google's mobile platform.
The tablet is reportedly scheduled for a launch some time in the fourth quarter. Shufflegazine snapped a pretty decent photo showing a Kindle-style hardware keyboard, a black, iPad-style display frame, and a color screen. The device "looked pretty fast with sensitive touch when Lanci used it." You'll have to use your imagination to fill in other details like pricing and specifications, because Lanci stayed mum about those.
When discussing how the device will hit the market, however, Lanci reportedly said Acer has "not decided between traditional channels or operators." This slate may show up either as a standalone retail product or as a carrier-bound device with a data plan, in other words.
Acer isn't the only one with an Android tablet in the works. Asus recently confirmed that its first iPad competitor, the Eee Pad, will run the Google software. (Thanks to Engadget for the link.)

Kings of Leon Cancels More Shows as Drummer Recovers From Broken Ribs
Kings of Leon is taking a two-week break from touring after their bus got involved in an accident last weekend. The band has canceled nine shows on their "Mechanical Bull" tour on the orders of drummer Nathan Followill's doctor.
"The process is now to rest in order for healing to take place," the doctor said in a statement. "To avoid complications and to make a full recovery, a break from performing to Aug. 28 is necessary."
Followill broke his ribs in the accident which took place after he and his bandmates played a show in Boston. The group subsequently canceled their August 10 gig in Saratoga Springs, New York. "Thank you for all of the get well soons. I'm a little banged up but will be back better than ever," Followill thanked fans for their support on Twitter after the news broke.
Other canceled dates include Kings of Leon's shows in Wantagh, Bristow, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. Their scheduled appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon", however, will still continue as planned on August 12. Questlove, the leader of the late night show's house band, is set to join the rockers and play the drums during the performance of "Family Tree".
Followill, along with other KoL members, is expected to continue their tour on August 28 in Holmdel, New Jersey.

Since Soundearphones has the gift card special, it seems tempting to get the Audeze LCD-2s.
Does anyone know how the Audeze LCD-2s compare to the Tesla T1s?post #7430 of 981511/25/12 at 7:04pmQuote:
well i can't give you a comparison. But I can tell you that it seems there have been some issues combining gift cards for big purchases. You may want to look farther into it before dropping the big bucks.post #7431 of 981511/25/12 at 7:05pm

You could easily get a better deal on an LCD-2 r2 by buying used on the FS forums here.
The LCD-2 has a more physical & visceral mid-range and bass than the T1, while the T1 could be considered more balanced-sounding (specifically, more treble quantity compared to the LCD-2) with a bigger soundstage. The LCD-2 is also very heavy and has a lot of clamping pressure - I've seen a lot of people complain about jaw or neck pain with it. The T1 is a lot lighter and not as much clamping pressure.
You need to factor in an amp (and possibly an appropriate-level DAC) too, if you don't already have one. The LCD-2 and T1 have very different amp requirements and I'd consider the Schiit Lyr the minimum for the LCD-2 and the Schiit Valhalla the minimum for the T1.
SoundEarphones also confirmed that you can't stack giftcards on purchases - i.e., you can buy two, but you can't use two when buying the item you want.post #7432 of 981511/25/12 at 7:09pm

Also on soundearphones, I'm pretty sure they charge "tax" as a way to compromise for their "free overnight shipping". I live in Ohio and I know for certain we don't have tax on online purchases, since I buy from amazon and newegg like atleast twice monthly. So.. I don't know where soundearphones is pulling their tax out of. At best you save ~$80 on he LCD-2's and they don't even offer the vegan pad options. I suppose if you're in the market for new LCD-2's and don't care for vegan pads its hard to fine a better deal. It's rather bs though since others have reported before during a similar promotion they allowed giftcards to stack and that they purchased LCD-2's for the $750 price point.post #7436 of 981511/25/12 at 8:05pm

BERLIN — Orders for Germany's industrial goods dropped unexpectedly in May, led by a fall in demand from other countries in the euro area and at home, official data showed Friday.
Orders were down 1.3 percent compared with the previous month, the Economy Ministry said. That contrasted with economists' forecast of a 1.2 percent increase.
Orders from elsewhere in the group of 17 European Union countries that use the euro declined 3.9 percent, while orders from inside Germany dropped 2 percent. But demand from countries outside the eurozone rose 1.1 percent.
It was the second consecutive drop for the country, following a 2.2 percent decline in April. The ministry pointed to fluctuations in the number of large orders, which it said were below average in May, as one source of volatility over recent months.
Without bulk orders, the general direction "remains upward, if less clearly than before," it said in a statement.
Germany has Europe's biggest economy and so far has weathered the continent's debt crisis well — helped by its traditional export strength and a robust job market that is fueling domestic demand.
Friday's numbers are disappointing but "have to be taken with a pinch of salt," said Carsten Brzeski, an economist at ING in Brussels. May had an unusually high number of public holidays this year, which probably blurred the picture to some extent, he said.
Brzeski noted that the underlying trend of industrial orders in recent months has been "slightly positive" despite falling demand from other countries that use the euro. He said that, while fairly well-filled order books should ensure a gradual pick-up in production in the longer term, "the medium-term outlook is not yet looking rosy."
On Thursday the VDMA group, which represents Germany's machinery producers, said it is now forecasting a 1 percent drop in production this year — compared with the 2 percent increase it predicted last September.
It pointed to a disappointing start to the year, particularly in the German market, but noted that exports to the key Chinese and U.S. markets have started increasing again.
