shouldn't it be WXGA?
25. jogutier (Posts: 324; Member since: 12 Feb 2010)
I didn't know that Verizon had WXGA? CONFUSED.......
45. Mario1017 (Posts: 336; Member since: 04 Sep 2011)
Do you know what WXGA is? its a resolution...nothing to do with verizon...
WXGA is 1280x800
46. Mario1017 (Posts: 336; Member since: 04 Sep 2011)
WXGA is 1280x800, not 720. So no, it shouldnt be WXGA, why do u say it should be?
48. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
WXGA can be anywhere from 1280x720 to 1366x800. So this could be described as WXGA, but either 720p or half HD is more accurate.

1620 battery---mmmmmm..4.3 screen, LTE, 1.5 ghz...I don't know how long that battery will last...The Bionics has a 1735 mah and I'm already reading bad battery life....HTC should have learned from the Thunderbolts small battery
18. idontknowanything (unregistered)
The processor is said to be a next generation 28nm Snapdragon that uses less power, hopefully that will make up for the smaller battery. Still, I agree with you.
19. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
That would be nice, but the S4 Snapdragons aren't supposed to be available to developers until next quarter. This probably uses the same MSM8660 currently used in the EVO 3D but clocked at 1.5 Ghz.
34. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
the MSM8960 is said to launch in devices by the end of 2011, the launch of the Vigor coincides with that and it would make sense because i came to the very same conclusion that samshotdogs did but i was going based off of it's slim frame that it'd have a smaller battery and it seems that i was correct so for this phone to even be usable it would have to have something like the MSM8960 but whether or not the 28nm building process which is said to cut down power consumption by 75% (which sounds like an exaggeration anyway) will actually bury the power consumption of a full HD screen, a 1.5GHz dual-core processor and 4G LTE connectivity enough to put battery life anywhere near what it is on the Bionic which uses a quarter of the pixels and a processor that's clocked down by 1/3 of the clock speed of the 8960 which will STILL be inferior to the OMAP4 remains to be seen but it's doubtful. unless you're just a straight up HTC fan or you're waiting for the Prime then there's really no reason to not consider the Bionic instead. the Bionic will have trade offs for the Vigor putting them at the same level.
39. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
We'll see. I looked into the MSM8960 and it does appear to have been sampled earlier than expected. The Vigor would be an ideal launch device for the S4 Snapdragons.
41. Jamister989 (Posts: 3; Member since: 24 Jul 2011)
If this does in fact have the new S4 MSM8960 that has LTE on the chip, this could mean an LTE phone that has a decent battery life.
42. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
i haven't heard anywhere that it had a 3G/LTE radio on the board. i was doubting it was even an S4. o:

The Incredible had reasonable battery life, no worse than my Droid 2, and I could get 2 days on that when I wasn't in the basement of my office. The 4G phones all have poor battery life, but the 3G ones are not that bad. I also had two HTC Windows phones, and both were pretty decent. They are all smartphones, so just plan to charge them nightly. Not a big deal.
13. iankellogg (Posts: 155; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
I have a droid incredible and I only care about MIN battery life. which for the droid incredible is less than 3 hours. not good by any means
14. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
I always read the Incredible had lousy battery life. The standby time was something like 150 hours, half that of most other phones. People overlooked it though because the phone was so fast.
Probably a good thing it offers inductive charging out of the box though.
35. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
it's ironic because the Droid Incredible 2/Incredible S has pretty great battery life.
38. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
The Incredible 2 just wasn't enough of a leap over the Incredible to really make an impression on people. It's gotten mediocre reviews even though it's a solid phone. Every time I've gone into a Verizon store I end up liking the DInc 2 design, feel and screen quality best. Actually a big reason I want the Incredible HD is because of how much I like the look and feel of the DInc 2.
43. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
the Droid Incredible 2 is a fine phone for what it is which is like a Global mid-range offering. my sister got one as a warranty replacement from her original Incredible and it has MUCH better battery life. she hasn't even had to get a second battery which i had to do for my Droid 3 which is a pretty big deal because the Droid 3 has pretty good battery life too. it looks really nice but my Droid 3 does too and i'm spoiled to it's power. the Droid Incredible 2 just feels laggy to me now after having the Droid 3 since it's launch.
40. erisowner (unregistered)
My Eris lasts FOREVER without a charge and the battery is 2 years old already!
55. eris hubby (unregistered)
my wife's eris had great battery life until one month ago when the battery decided it would only hold a charge for 3 hours.
6. dcgore (unregistered)
wow, it's beautiful...and i thought i was getting an iphone.
7. Adi (unregistered)
Surprising that phonearena didnt mention that this phone comes with wireless inductive charging capabilities. I am sure this is the first phone to come with such capability. (....well maybe because it is not an apple product.)
8. ayephoner (Posts: 850; Member since: 09 Jun 2009)
is that sarcasm?
palm pre plus...
9. Adi (unregistered)
well..my mistake. Thanks for correcting me.
10. DoctorD0S (Posts: 15; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)
There are a lot of phones with that option, Palm Pre, Palm Pixi, Incredible, Droid 3, Bionic, Droid Charge, etc. But most require a new back cover. Tempted to get one for my phone, but the charging pads are pricey.
12. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
48 GB built in? Dang. This'll definitely be $300 then.
20. Sethdras (Posts: 61; Member since: 22 Jul 2009)
16gb built in, comes with 32gb micro sd, still nice that it comes with an extra 32 and not 16, this will probably be my next phone, hopefully they include some beats headphones with it too
22. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
48 GB included, that's what I meant. Compare to the Sensation & EVO 3D that have only 1 GB built in and the Thunderbolt with 8 GB.
I don't care so much about fancy headphones, this phone already has it all.

well it says at the bottom Dr. Dre studio earbuds
15. iankellogg (Posts: 155; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
is this going to be omap or snapdragon?I hope it isn't snapdragon
16. superguy (Posts: 293; Member since: 15 Jul 2011)
I believe it is unfortunately. That's why it's a 1.5 GHz compared to OMAP based phones.
HTC seems to have a love affair with Qualcomm.
17. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
They've been working with Qualcomm processors pretty much exclusively for years. At this point it's probably easiest for them to develop/program for them, even if they're not the best available.
Is it true the current dual core Snapdragons don't really use the 2nd core? Is that likely to change when ICS arrives?
21. Gorilla (unregistered)
Anyone know if HTC uses Gorilla glass?
This is a great looking phone!
I think it will come down to this or the Prime.. gotta have that 1280 resolution!
I'd love a 4.5" screen, but I'm really worried that the Prime will not have a LED notification light being a samsung product.. does the GS2??
23. android1234 (Posts: 137; Member since: 09 Feb 2010)
This phone sounds great, but I'm enticed to wait for the Samsung Droid prime for the following: 4.65" super ambled hd display, TI OMAP 1.5Ghz dual-core processor, and ICS. These 3 feature are a better offering than HTCs vigor.
24. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
The screen spec depends on what you're looking for. If you're like me and you just want the highest pixel density known to man, a 4.3" SLCD HD display easily tops a 4.65" pentile SAMOLED HD (and the vaunted Retina Display for that matter). I don't need a 4.65" screen.
Otherwise yes, the Droid Prime will top this phone. And I'll still be happy with it.
27. android1234 (Posts: 137; Member since: 09 Feb 2010)
Correct, but pixel density over 300 looks pretty much the same to the naked eye. I watch a lot of netflix, so bigger screen and super amoled hd resolution is perfect, only downer is that its pentile arrangement display, but ohh well
28. iankellogg (Posts: 155; Member since: 15 Jun 2011)
pentile can be fine when the base resolution is high. The 800x480 pentile screens were like 400x200 or something similar, don't quote me on that though.
29. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
It's somewhere in between the stated resolution and subpixel-based resolution. A 300 ppi PenTile screen will look more like 250 ppi, which is still good. But 4"+ WVGA screens start to show jaggies much more readily, as the stated 230 ppi drops to like 190.
Even at 4.65", SAMOLED PenTile 720p will only drop from ~320 ppi to ~280. It'll still look stunning.
30. android1234 (Posts: 137; Member since: 09 Feb 2010)
I dont why Samsung chose to use pentile, or anyone one for that matter, unless they had to use it to achieve Hd resolution for super amoled.
31. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
When they started with AMOLED, Samsung used PenTile RGBG because there was no other way to balance the color intensities, and because of limitations on subpixel size. It wasn't a big deal until the screens started pushing 4". At that level the subpixel arrangement becomes clearer. My Rogue has a 3.1" WVGA screen, and I didn't even know it was PenTile until I'd owned it for over a year.
What I don't get is why Motorola went with Pentile RGBW for its qHD screens. It makes the screen look no better than an equivalent size WVGA screen. HTC uses a regular RGB LCD for their qHD, and the difference is definitely noticeable.
32. sooo (unregistered)
so if you had to pick a screen which one would you go with the Samsung for the HTC?
33. sooo (unregistered)
my guess would be that the samsung would have a better screen
36. android1234 (Posts: 137; Member since: 09 Feb 2010)
Htc will look sharper because its a smaller screen and rgbg, Samsung colors will look better due to it being super amoled....but screen aside, I wonder what the thickness of the 2 phones will be? Because I have thunderbolt and its just too thick. I know its because of he 4g radio, but theyvcould make it thinner if they wanted. Like the Droid bionic.
37. locoboy (unregistered)
Phone looks good I love my HTC more pixels better gaming better graphics than the samsung and the Samsung will lack on features the htc would have more features to play with so if you're a tech guy like me with the htc I don't like the way htc incredible 1 incredibles 2 camera runs blurry shots when you take pictures but is the camera on this 1 is good I'm gonna definitely buy this phone if they can get real full gaming on this then it will be sweet LOL they are also coming out with a 3 d HTC phone in about 5 months so save your upgrades or if you cant wait get this phone this phone is awesome I got 5lines so I got my upgrades ready LOL I pay $160 a month so to me it's like making a loan what is a cool thing about it the HTC tb has so many things wrong with it they said I can trade my phone in for that 1 free LOL I yea baby sweet and the battery sucks on all android cell phones not just htc so get it right but with the dual core technology it's gonna last 2 times longer so let me see how's the camera before I buy
44. yeayeayea (unregistered)
hmmmmm this is interersint article here..... says radio shack is expected to get this phone oct. 20
47. sooooooooooooo (unregistered)
So either the HTC Vigor or the Droid Prime.................... what is everyone else going for? Which screen will be better?
49. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
I'd have to see them side by side to say which screen is better. AMOLED in general is brighter & more vivid, but LCD is more natural looking. Both screens will be a big improvement over what's available today. I'm looking forward to the Vigor/Inc HD more because it will be smaller overall.
50. Vigor_fan (unregistered)
So im actually a bit confused. Between the rumors of it being the Thunderbolt replacement and the Droid Inc HD, if it truly is the later, when should we expect a second version of the Thunderbolt and what would we be likely to see on it??
53. roldefol (Posts: 4238; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
Well, it is replacing the Thunderbolt in the sense that it'll be HTC's flagship LTE phone on Verizon, but they chose to go with the Incredible design language (and no kickstand) instead. I happen to like the Incredible and Incredible 2, so an Incredible HD sounds great to me.
As for a Thunderbolt 2, there may not be one. For me the Thunderbolt name is associated with bugs and poor battery life, so I say they make it a one-off. Who knows though?

What: Bronco Hockey vs. Lake Superior State University
When: 7:35 pm November 7
Where: Lawson Ice Arena
Items being sought for the care packages are:
At Saturday's WMU hockey game at Lawson Ice Arena, people are asked to bring items for care packages to be sent in December to soldiers serving in Afghanistan and Iraq. The donations are a part of a Military Appreciation Night theme for the 7:35 p.m. game between WMU and Lake Superior State University.
"It's something the coach and the team felt passionate about," Elaine Russell, WMU's director of sports marketing, said of the event, which includes the Bronco players wearing camouflage jerseys.
A ceremonial puck drop will include Aidan, Dylan and Kellan Sloan, whose father, Maj. Douglas Emory Sloan, was killed in 2006 during deployment in Afghanistan. The major was a 1996 WMU graduate.
Care packages including the donations collected Saturday will be sent to WMU faculty members and students serving in the military overseas.
"These people are serving their country, and they are away from home," said Tracey Moon, of the WMU Advocacy Office for Transfer Students and Military Affairs. "It's a way to say, 'Thank you.' "

The Dallas Cowboys will be looking to significantly improve from their 6-10 record in 2010.
There are some positive signs from training camp. Most notably, Tony Romo is back, Felix Jones is looking sharp and Dez Bryant is ready to break out.
But, for every player looking like a star, there's a player who probably needs to be cut.
Keeping players around who aren't benefiting the team doesn't make much sense, especially with the Cowboys' salary cap situation.
Here are five players that the Cowboys should cut before the start of the 2011 season.

Today in the United States, virtually all family practitioners and pediatricians, most internists, and some obstetricians serve as primary-care physicians to patients and their families. Nevertheless, a large number of people are living in areas that can be classified as "medically underserved" in that the services of physicians and other health professionals are not available in proportion to need. The problem is particularly acute in the slum and urban ghetto areas of cities as well as in many rural communities. While it may be true that more physicians are needed, maldistribution and less than optimum utilization of health manpower result from conditions which cannot be treated by simply increasing supply. In fact, the problem may be aggravated by that approach. A preferred approach is to foster more effective use of existing health manpower and to encourage use of new types of allied health personnel where their need has been adequately

About the Community Writing Center
The Community Writing Center (CWC) supports, motivates and educates people of all abilities and educational backgrounds who want to use writing for practical needs, civic engagement, and personal expression. We provide opportunities to enhance writing abilities through such programs as Writing Coaching, Writing Workshops, the DiverseCity Writing Series and Writing Partners. These services are open to all Salt Lake area residents. You can learn more about the CWC got started by reading our history.
The Community Writing Center's annual budget is hard-funded by Salt Lake Community College. 98% of this funding goes into operational costs, 2% to writing projects. Writing projects are funded by donations, grants, and in-kind contributions.
The SLCC Community Writing Center opened in October 2001, the first of its kind in the nation, sponsored by Salt Lake Community College. The road to opening the CWC was one of collaboration among community members, college faculty and administrators, and many students. Together we took the leap to establish a new type of community education for the people of Salt Lake City.
The CWC has its beginnings in a service-learning writing course that partnered the SLCC English Department with the Artspace, Inc. community developer. Students in a special topics course produced the Bridges newsletter for the neighborhood that Artspace was located for four years, beginning in 1998. This writing in the community led to the development of the DiverseCity Writing Series, which again partnered the college with a community organization. This program brought together people in four different organizations over two years to write their stories, imaginations, histories, and dreams.
In the fall of 2001, the CWC opened in its first home, the Artspace Bridge Projects, on 5th West and 2nd South. With one faculty member directing the CWC, and six SLCC students working hard on developing the programs, the CWC began to establish itself as a fixture in Salt Lake City's community. People from the shelter came to work on resumes and life stories; partnerships were forged with other adult education programs around the valley, like the Literacy Action Center; the DiverseCity Writing Series published its third anthology of writing in collaboration with The Road Home Shelter, located just across the street; everyone worked to get the word out about the CWC through flyers, festivals and phone calls.
Two years later, other colleges across the state, and the country, started to develop their own community writing centers based on the CWC. Weber State University, in Ogden, opened a CWC in a community center downtown in 2003. Since then, seven other CWCs have either opened or are in development around the country, located at institutions like University of North Carolina Chapel Hill.
At the CWC, our programs grew rapidly. By 2004, we had worked with nearly 1000 people on their writing! People from all over the city participated in our Writing Coaching program and attended our writing workshops. The DiverseCity Writing Series grew to eight writing groups that met across the valley, and came together twice a year for publication and a public reading to celebrate their writing. And, the CWC had partnered with nearly 100 community organizations, city agencies and governmental programs on writing workshops and education for their clients, staff and volunteers.
In 2005, the CWC and the City Library met to talk about the Writing Coaching program that had been located in the library's technology center for over a year. We wanted to see how we could improve the services to the Library's patrons. During that meeting, the Library's director asked if the CWC might be interested in moving to Library Square. The CWC and the community college jumped at the chance to locate in the heart of Salt Lake City's community center. Partnering the Community Writing Center with the City Library seemed a natural fit, a collaboration that would serve the city's residents in ways that neither of us could do alone.
In January 2006, the Community Writing Center opened its doors at Library Square in Salt Lake City. The CWC is still led by SLCC faculty, and all the programs are still developed and run by students at SLCC and other local colleges and universities. In March 2005, the Community Writing Center was an national award of Writing Program Excellence, and was held up as a model of college/community partnerships for the rest of the country. We're looking forward to the next five years of writing with the community and serving the people of Salt Lake City.
The Community Writing Center is located on the east side plaza of Library Square at: 210 East and 400 South, Suite 8 Salt Lake City, UT 84111
UTA TRAX provides easy access to the Community Writing Center (Library Station), allowing you to park at a variety of locations throughout the valley.

By joining a writing group or becoming a mentor. Many of the CWC programs are supported by volunteers. Call the Community Writing Center at 801-957-2192 to speak with the DiverseCity Writing Series coordinator who will give you more information about how to become involved.
Writing Partners
Writing Partners are organizations, agencies, or businesses who partner with the CWC to address the needs of their staff, clients and/or volunteers through writing.
Many Writing Partnerships are workshops specifically-designed for the partner organization. These can be on any type of writing, and can be a one-time workshop or can be longer-term. Other partnerships co-develop writing groups for clients of an organization. In others, the CWC and the partner collaborate to create necessary written documents for the organization.
No. The CWC responds to the individual needs of the organization, agency or business. Basically, a Writing Partnership is any collaborative project between the CWC and your organization that involves any kind of writing (resumes, grant-writing, newsletters, poetry, letters, fiction, writing groups, applications, etc.).
It depends on the scope of the partnership. If you would like a writing workshop specifically designed for your organization, you will collaborate with the CWC to determine what you would like that workshop to include. You will also be responsible for announcing/advertising the workshop. If the partnership creates a longer-term writing project, such as an on-going writing group, your organization will need to dedicate personnel who can co-facilitate the writing project with the CWC for a period of time (jointly-determined). After that your organization will take over the project and the CWC will step out of facilitating it. Our goal with these types of Writing Partnerships is to create a sustainable program that the partner can facilitate on their own in the long-run.
It depends. Writing Partnerships are free for non-profit organizations. For governmental and for-profit businesses the cost is determined by the scope of the partnership, the level of the partners co-facilitation, and the organization's budget. For questions, contact the CWC Director.
Contact the CWC Director to discuss your organization's needs (801-957-2192). The director will meet with you to collaboratively brainstorm possible ways of addressing those needs and will determine the capacity of the CWC to meet them. A Writing Partner agreement will be developed between your organization and the CWC which will describe the time frame, responsibilities and intended outcomes of the partnership. Then, the partnership will begin.

Fixing busted budgets
In state capitals across the country, the fiscal year began July 1 with financial catastrophe. Summer schools were shut in California, state parks closed in Arizona, drug treatment and home health workers were slashed in Illinois, and paydays were payless in Pennsylvania, to give only a few examples.
Truth-telling time
This is truth-telling time in the fight for health care. The voices of the uninsured and underinsured, of those who have insurance but live in fear of losing it, must be heard. The stakes could not be higher.

Originally published at: http://www.howtogeek.com/175033/how-to-speed-up-any-android-phone-by-disabling-animations/
Android phones — and tablets, too — display animations when moving between apps and screens. These animations look very slick, but they waste time — especially on fast phones, which could switch between apps instantly if not for the animations.
While no animations is technically the fastest, 0.5x seems to feel the fastest for me. Without any animations, the thing feels like it's snapping at me, and I do not like rude tablets.
For the Samsung Galaxy S4, the Developer Menu is very well hidden !
To access
Settings -> About Device and scroll down to the "Build Number." TAP on Build Number FIVE times and Developer Menu is now active
Now return to the About Device menu and Develop option is listed 2nd from base of listed options...
(p.s Samsung I want the 10 minutes of frustration in finding this out back !)
I tried this on an Acer Iconia A200 tablet with no luck. I could never get it to work. Your mileage may vary.
Seriously? It wasn't second for me, but second last. But yeah, wasted ~5-10 minutes there.
Did you find the Launcher on your S4? I managed all the steps, but no Launcher in the list of all Apps in App Manager!
That'll be "TouchWiz Launcher", or "TouchWiz Simple Launcher", if you have enabled the simple launcher in the Settings.
my phone don't have these options. Which version of android have these options?
I own a moto g android version KitKat 4.4.4 and tried the abovementioned options to speed up my phone. But, the animations is not reverting back. Please help! If u wish I can also upload the current animation screenshots.
That's done it here! Animations × off ANDI is now on steroids! I'm not sure what the purpose is for these animations ,if only a theatrical expression or what ever ,but doesn't seem to affect any thing but screen load speed.

Yasinskas Archive: Blog | Columns
Jason (Jacksonville, FL)
Hey Pat, Do you think the Panthers should file tampering charges against every team on Peppers "list"?
Pat Yasinskas (12:58 PM)
No, because I think some of those teams on his list aren't even interested in him.
Ed (Charlotte,NC)
Pat, What are the chances that the Panthers make a run at Haynesworth assuming they trade Peppers?
Pat Yasinskas (12:59 PM)
Slim. Panthers are going to be tight against the cap and Haynesworth is going to cost a fortune.
Greg (Austin)
If the Saints cut players like Mike McKenzie, Jamar Nesbit, Brian Young, Kevin Kaesviharn, Hollis Thomas, and Jason David, will they then have the available cap space to make a splash in free agency?
Pat Yasinskas (1:00 PM)
Wouldn't say they can make a splash, but they'll have enough wiggle room to sign some second-tier free agents. But you've also got to factor Vilma's probable deal into that cap space.
Sackmaster97 (Worcester, MA)
Hey Pat, with Antonio franchised and Sims resigned, do the Bucs still make a big push for Haynesworth or try to draft a DT. And are they looking like they can win the Division next year?
Pat Yasinskas (1:01 PM)
Yes, I think the Bucs will at least make a play for Hayneworth. They need help in middle of D-line big time.
Mike Norfolk Va
Me again Pat. I've heard different things regarding the Bucs cap situation I've heard 42Mil to 50Mil which is the most accurate?
Pat Yasinskas (1:02 PM)
Think the $42 mil is more accurate right now. Bryant's counting almost $10 mil with the franchise tag. Also, this number's very much in flux with Sims re-signing. But they'll likely free up even more room with some cuts next week.
Steiny (NYC)
Do you think the Saints are done with trimming their roster?
Pat Yasinskas (1:02 PM)
No, they're not done. Still some moves coming next week.
naz, fort myers fl
Pat me and the guys here at work love your blog, my question for you is who do you speculate will win the NFC south this year, I think the New orleans Saints will, 1. Saints, 2. Bucs, 3. Falcons, 4. Panthers. And who will the Saints pick in the first round and do you think they will move up to pick up a better corner or safety?
Pat Yasinskas (1:05 PM)
Too early to make predictions for next year. Let's see what happens in free agency and the draft. I think you'll see Saints make several moves at corner and safety. They know they have to get better there. Obviously, Vontae Davis is one first-round pick I think is very possible.
Mike (Miami, Fl)
Hey Pat, with Mark Dominik coming and saying that they will not resign Garcia, do you think McCown will be the starter or will the Bucs pursue another option?
Pat Yasinskas (1:06 PM)
I'll promise you right now, there will be another QB to at least compete with McCown. McCown may end up winning the job, but they're not just going to hand it to him.
Mac (Tampa)
What a surprise, Antonio Bryant is upset by being franchised. He had a great year and has top talent, but also has a lengthy history of horrible behavior. The Buccs have to be wary of giving he a long term deal.
Pat Yasinskas (1:07 PM)
Agree. And I think Bryant should be thrilled to get the tag -- it's almost $10 million for one year. With his history, that's a great deal.
Jason (Greensboro)
There seems to be a lot of confusion regarding cap situations. Do you know of a website with that kind of information?
Pat Yasinskas (1:07 PM)
It's all very much in flux right now with players re-signing and getting cut. I'll try to update on my blog as often as possible, but it's changing every day right now.
Matt (Mesa, AZ)
Pat, With Peppers no longer available which defensive free agent do you see the Cards going after?
Pat Yasinskas (1:08 PM)
I think Cards should keep their own defensive ends. I like Antonio Smith a lot.
Vance (greensboro,NC)
Pat, who do you think will fill the void at CB (assuming that Ken Lucas is cut soon). and do you agree with these cuts- Landon Johnson, Ken Lucas, D.J. Hackett, Jeremy Bridges, Nick Goings.
Pat Yasinskas (1:09 PM)
Agree with your cuts. Richard Marshall takes over for Lucas, but then you've got to find a No. 3 CB.
Sean H (Orlando, FL)
Besides QB what are some major targets for the Bucs on offense?
Pat Yasinskas (1:10 PM)
Start with WR. Even with Bryant, they need another quality WR. Next, RB -- Graham's the only sure thing there. You could also see a left tackle.
Mike (Miami, Fl)
Its me again, which QB do u have in mind to compete with McCown? I hope its not Freeman because I think we need to draft a DT if we don't get Haynesworth or a WR if we do. What are your thoughts about the Bucs pursuing Cassel?
Pat Yasinskas (1:11 PM)
Don't think you'll see them go the rookie route. My prediction is someone like Losman or Grossman.
Jason (Greensboro)
What about Ken Lucas specifically? I've seen numbers ranging from 2 mil-9 mil for what the Panthers could save by releasing him. What's the bottom line?
Pat Yasinskas (1:11 PM)
Glad you asked. Got it right in front of me. Cutting Lucas would free up exactly $3.3 million in cap space.
Nathan (Cary, NC)
How can you agree with Nick Goings being cut? He is a leader and a key specail teamer. He can play fullback, halfback, even tight end if he had to. Why give up that kind of versatility - not to mention his locker room presence
Pat Yasinskas (1:12 PM)
Agree with all your points. But we're talking money here and Goings' cap figure is getting up there.
Jason (Greensboro)
Why cut Bridges? He provided some quality minutes this past season. Sure the o-line is good, but he was an important part of it's performance.
Pat Yasinskas (1:13 PM)
Off-field stuff and his cap figure is pretty high. They can clear $2 mil by cutting him. They need cap room.
CC (Atlanta)
AJC is reporting that Brooking and the Falcons are in talks. I presume he'll have to take a drastic pay cut to stick around. Do you think he will?
Pat Yasinskas (1:14 PM)
My guess is he stays -- at a very low price.
Nathan (Cary, NC)
Fair enough point on Goings, but restructuring might be better
Pat Yasinskas (1:15 PM)
Think it's at a point where restructuring wouldn't do any good unless he's extended. He's getting up in age and I don't know they would want to extend him.
Noah (Lakeland, FL)
Hey Pat, what do you make of the rumors that the Bucs could get Derek Anderson from the Browns for a 3rd round pick? Could the Bucs possibly pull the trigger on a deal like this?
Pat Yasinskas (1:15 PM)
If the price tag is only a 3rd rounder, I think they'd have to strongly consider it.
William (L.A., CA)
Why was Dalas the only team mentioned on Peppers' "list"?
Pat Yasinskas (1:16 PM)
That's the only one that the source has confirmed. We can speculate all we want on the others, but don't know for sure.
CC (Atlanta)
Dimitroff reportedly likes Cards DE Antonio Smith. If we bring him to bookend w/ Abraham we'll be in great shape.
Pat Yasinskas (1:16 PM)
Agree. I like Smith a lot. Was real impressed with him in playoff game.
Jason (Jacksonville, FL)
Remember John Fox is the Founding member of the Nick Goings fan club.
Pat Yasinskas (1:17 PM)
No, that was actually Dan Henning. But Fox might be vice president.
Dan (Charlotte, NC)
Pat, Do you see Charles Johnson starting next year for the Panthers?
Pat Yasinskas (1:17 PM)
Yes, but the question is who do they start on the other side?
Jason (Greensboro)
Ok, so let's say the Panthers burn Bridges. The list Vance gave only frees up around 8 mil, right? Arent the Panthers about 18 over after yesterday's events?
Pat Yasinskas (1:18 PM)
Don't have exact numbers, but I'm guessing you're at least in the ball park. They can also free up by restructuring some contracts. Suspect they've already done some of that, but it hasn't been reported yet.
CC (Atlanta)
Surprised Atlanta hasn't re-signed Foxworth? He played well last year... is it a money issue? Seems like he's not at the top of the CB list so I can't see that being the problem.
Pat Yasinskas (1:19 PM)
Just reported on the blog about an hour ago that Foxworth will test free agency. He thinks he can get big money. We'll see.
Jason (Jacksonville, FL)
Does Pep have to sign before he can be traded?
Pat Yasinskas (1:20 PM)
He would have to sign an offer sheet with another team as it stands right now under the rules of the franchise tag.
Cody, Cedar Falls, IA
With Jim Bates installing his bump and run man coverage at the CB position do you think Tampa Bay has the personel in place to employ that scheme or will they have to look to the draft and free agency to find players to fit? If so, who do you think they'll try to pick up?
Pat Yasinskas (1:21 PM)
Think Talib will fit in that. Might have to go out and get somebody else, though.
Nathan (Cary, NC)
What is wrong with Brayton starting opposite Charles Johnson for a year? He is no long term solution, but was solid last season - at least to the point where he was not a weakness along the front 7.
Pat Yasinskas (1:21 PM)
You comfortable with Brayton and Johnson as your starters?
Colton (Blacksburg, VA)
Pat, as a long time Panthers fan, I have been frustrated with our QB situation almost every year. Do you think a Peppers for Cassell trade is possible?
Pat Yasinskas (1:22 PM)
Lots of you asking this question. I'll answer all of you here. I don't see Cassell landing with the Panthers.
Chase (Gaffney, SC)
Pat, do you really think Ron Meeks is going to talk Pep into signing a long term deal?
Pat Yasinskas (1:22 PM)
Not a chance.
Tom (Atlanta)
Normally,I would balk at Foxworth getting a big deal, but considering the Colts gave $40M to the average Hayden, who knows?
Pat Yasinskas (1:23 PM)
He might get it somewhere else. Think Falcons are being cautious because they don't want to overpay him. If he hits market and doesn't get the big money he's hoping for, ATL remains strong possibility.
Mike Norfolk Va
Pat how do you feel about the Bucs rb situation is Kevin Jones a possibilty?
Pat Yasinskas (1:24 PM)
Graham is good. Caddy is a huge question. Not sure what Dunn has left or if he'll even be around. I'd go out and get a good RB somewhere.
Nathan (Cary, NC)
I would be comfortable with Brayton and Johnson as starters, just as much as 2007 Peppers and Brayton/Johnson. I would take Brayton's effort over a possible 2.5 sack repeat by an unenthusiastic Peppers. You wouldn't?
Pat Yasinskas (1:26 PM)
Not selling Brayton's effort or Johnson's potential short. But I think they need to add a DE to give them some more pass rush. That's supposed to be the cornerstone of a Fox defense.
Sean H (Orlando, FL)
Pat would Edge be a good fit in the tampa running situation, given that Jag is going to a zone blocking scheme?
Pat Yasinskas (1:26 PM)
I say go younger at RB.
JT Albuquerque
Afternoon Pat. For the life of me i can not figure out why everyone thinks Cassell is the best thing since sliced bread.. He has played ONE year and had a good year. But he also has a very good supporting cast around him and in a system that he has been in for several years. Why does anyone think that if he goes to a new team he will have the same success right away if at all?? Let the guy have 3 or 4 good years before everyone puts him up on a pedastal.
Pat Yasinskas (1:27 PM)
This one speaks for itself. I agree.
Steiny (NYC)
Why is Antonio Bryant's agent, Lamont Smith, not happy about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers putting the franchise tag on Bryant?
Pat Yasinskas (1:27 PM)
He's trying to get a long-term deal. That's his job.
tito (Charlotte)
Seems like Fox and Co focused on offense in last year's draft and free agency. So this year they fix the defense, do you agree?
Pat Yasinskas (1:28 PM)
Yep, I think that's where the fixing is needed.
Ryan (New Orleans)
Pat what do you think of the possibility of moving Mckenzie to safety where he wont take so much wear & tear?
Pat Yasinskas (1:29 PM)
Like the concept. But I'm not sure McKenzie has anything left. You could see him out of there in the next week. Nice player, but I think he might be at the end of the road.
jonny, queens
What is your opinion of the franchise tag? I've never seen anything so patently unfair. This is part of the reason I side with the NFL players in almost everything, the game is rigged against them on the business side of things. I mean you're gonna tell me that I played out my contract but I can't leave and even though I'm miserable you think adequate value for my misery is more money? That is the problem with things on so many levels. You tell an athlete that money should mean more than the team he plays for, or the best situation for him and his career then when he does something for money only you crap all over him about it. I wish the media backed these guys up a little more. Money doesn't necessarily compensate for unhappiness.
Pat Yasinskas (1:31 PM)
Some good points. And these guys do have to look out for what's best for them.
Terry (Charlotte)
Why is Peppers taking all of his gripes public? i think the organization has treated him pretty fairly throughout his tenure, he has $52mm+ in the bank to show for it sicne 2002. All of a sudden in the last 2 weeks, he has trashed the organization saying they held back his potential. Why couldn't he leave that between himself and the team?
Pat Yasinskas (1:31 PM)
A lot of times, the agents run the show on these types of things.
Marty Hurney (charlotte, NC)
HELP!!! I need to get Peppers outta here, but I will only take 2 first round picks. I can't have him on the bench wasting cap space in 2009. What should I do?
Pat Yasinskas (1:32 PM)
Relax, my friend. Take whatever you can get for him and move on.
Mark H (Greensboro, NC)
Yeah, but he is letting his agent do those things.
Pat Yasinskas (1:33 PM)
Terry (New Orleans)
Are there any good free agents out there that can turn the Saints Defense around?
Pat Yasinskas (1:33 PM)
Saints D might not be as bad off as you think. Lots of injured guys coming back and I think Dan Morgan can help them. May only be a couple players away from being decent.
Kevin (Tampa, FL)
Odds on Bucs getting Haynesworth?
Pat Yasinskas (1:34 PM)
Pretty darn good. They've got lots of room to work with.
Chris (Wilmington)
I didn't have a problem with Pep asking for a change of scenery, but think its hilarious that he also has limited the choices to four teams. Is there anything else you want Mr. Peppers?
Pat Yasinskas (1:35 PM)
I'll just say I think this situation could be handled a lot better than it has been.
Terry (Charlotte)
But peppers has to approve what is released by his agent, and his little conference call last week was all on peppers. He stated quite clear that he felt as if he was being held back. He did not own up to anything, not once in his transcript did he think it was maybe his fault, that maybe he did not give 100% effort. His comments suggest he is not a team player, he is only looking to fulfill his personal potential.
Pat Yasinskas (1:36 PM)
Again, I don't think it's being handled well. I wish Pep would just come out and say exactly why he wants out, instead of just hinting about it in broad terms.
Steiny (NYC)
Do you think Pettigrew would be a great fit in Atlanta?
Pat Yasinskas (1:36 PM)
That's not happening.
Brenden (Muncie, IN) [via mobile]
Good day, Pat. Have the Panthers even flirted with the idea with a 3-4 or hybrid defense or would that severely hamper chemistry? Your thoughts?
Pat Yasinskas (1:37 PM)
Fox is a 4-3 guy. He's not gonna change.
Jason (Jacksonville, FL)
A few people I have talked think that Peppers is just the next "Moose" goes away to a big payday and comes back in a few years. Can you help me tell them they are crazy?
Pat Yasinskas (1:38 PM)
They're crazy. Pep has burned his bridges with the Panthers and I doubt he'd ever want to come back anyway. Moose situation was totally different.
Mike ( Charlotte, NC)
Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Peppers say he wanted whats best for himself and the team? that he did not want to leave the team crippled?? Well his recent actions of limiting the teams he will approve a trade with is doing just that, crippling both his and the team's chances of getting a trade done. Mayeb Carl Carey should stick to being a student advisor at UNC...
Pat Yasinskas (1:38 PM)
Yep. He's doing a pretty good job of crippling them.
Kevin (Tampa, FL)
That's good to hear. I think Haynesworth is the perfect fit for the Bucs' system right now. But if we have to dole out around $10-15 million a season for him do you think we could still be major players for some other marquee free agents? And if so, who?
Pat Yasinskas (1:39 PM)
T.J. Houshmanzadeh? I think they need another WR ...or two.
David (New York)
Speculating now, do you think Matt Ryan will have a multiple MVP type career, or just multiple Pro Bowls?
Pat Yasinskas (1:40 PM)
Yep and I don't think we're speculating too much. The kid is very good and only going to get better.
Clovis (Baton Rouge, LA)
I know the Peppers story is big news, but how about some questions from other teams? Who else might the Saints be looking to cut to clear cap space?
Pat Yasinskas (1:41 PM)
McKenzie? Probably some contract restructres, too.
Steiny (NYC)
What is the latest on Cadillac Williams?
Pat Yasinskas (1:41 PM)
Long road ahead of him. A major question mark.
Mark H (Greensboro, NC)
Why is everyone so hung up on Haynesworth? He did have some very good guys on that D-line that helped free him up. Plus, he didn't do too much the first few years of his career. I think he'll sit on the money, once payed.
Pat Yasinskas (1:42 PM)
A valid concern.
ray gordon reid FORT PIERCE FLA 34954
question to PAT YASINSKAS AT 1.50PM HI PAT WHOS YOUR NFC SOUTH CHAMP 2009
Pat Yasinskas (1:42 PM)
Let's wait on that until we get through free agency and the draft.
Travis (Houston, TX)
Pat, since Atogwe has been franchised by the Rams who do you think the Saints turn to for help at the FS position or do you think they look corner in free agency and get somebody at safety in the draft?
Pat Yasinskas (1:43 PM)
I think they'll get a FS in free agency. There are some guys out there and will be more coming available that are better than what they've got.
Frat (Athens, GA)
Do you think Ryan will hit the sophomore slump next year? Or do you see him progressing even further next year with a full offseason under his belt?
Pat Yasinskas (1:44 PM)
I don't see a slump for him. Solid offensive weapons around him and I think they'll add a TE that can catch some passes.
daniel (tampa)
should tampa fans be concerned about bryant not signing a long term deal? Also do you think phillips,buchanon, and clayton get re-signed before free agency?
Pat Yasinskas (1:45 PM)
No, Bryant can still sign a long-term deal up until July. I think they're trying to keep Phillips and Buchanon. I think you'll see Clayton hit the market.
Jason, PA
Is Darryl Clark going to do enough this year to get PSU to the national championship game? The D should be tough with Sean Lee coming back
Pat Yasinskas (1:45 PM)
Absolutely, Nittany Lions will win it all next season.
Mark H (Greensboro, NC)
Could Atlanta trade Vick when reinstated? If so, what would they get for him?
Pat Yasinskas (1:46 PM)
Yes, they're trying to trade his rights already. But they won't get much for him -- maybe a late draft pick or maybe they simply will have to cut him.
Ryan (New Orleans)
How do you think Roman Harper will fit in Gregg Williams' system?
Pat Yasinskas (1:47 PM)
I don't think Roman Harper's as bad as a lot of fans think. I think he's a solid SS when he's got decent CBs and a FS around him.
Jason, PA
Brooks and Barber both Bucs in 2009?
Pat Yasinskas (1:48 PM)
Tough call. I think you could see one surprise in the next week or so.
Greg (Austin)
Jermaine Phillips said that the Saints are a possible destination for him in free agency. How would he fit in their secondary?
Pat Yasinskas (1:48 PM)
He'd fit very nicely in New Orleans. That's why I think Bucs will try to keep him.
Tony (Wilmington,NC)
Did I miss the ESPN article that the NFL went down to a 2 team league in the Bucs and Panthers? It looks that way since all the questions in this chat are for those two teams.... How about a Skins question. What approach do you see them taking this offseason (draft and FA)? What cuts can we expect...?
Pat Yasinskas (1:49 PM)
We're doing an NFC South chat here.
JT Albuquerque
Wow how did a PSU question get asked in the nfc south blog...Anyways..What was KC thinking when they hired Gary Gibbs (former saints dc) Did they not see any of the video? And what do u think the new DC will bring to the table if the saints can get any decent guys out there to perform Pat?
Pat Yasinskas (1:50 PM)
Don't put all blame on Gibbs. Injuries were a big factor last year. Williams will bring a more agressive attitude and I think that will help.
Jeff (Atlanta, GA)
the bucs would cut barber before brooks right? i dont think we could handle seeing a corner stone cut like they did to lynch
Pat Yasinskas (1:51 PM)
That would be my guess.
Danny (Spartanburg, S.C.)
I'm noticing that my questions are yet to be answered so imma just reply to the stuff ur sayin...It would be better for the Bucs to trade Brooks while he is still a pro bowler...I mean look at the Dolphins...They got rid of Jason Taylor AND Zach Thomass, (the faces of the Dolphins defense) and made the most dramatic change as far as wins go, ever...
Pat Yasinskas (1:56 PM)
Sorry, got knocked off computer for a minute. And, sorry, I can't answer every question. I answer as many as I can. Don't think you'll see Brooks traded. Doubt he'd go anywhere else and he doesn't have much trade value at his age.
Ryan (New Orleans)
Can you convince the other NFC South teams not to sign Deuce?
Pat Yasinskas (1:57 PM)
I think you're safe there. I don't see him fitting in Carolina or ATL. Tampa's possible, but I think they need to get younger.
Jared (Ann Arbor, MI)
Given that the Saints cut franchise all-time leading rusher Deuce McAllister from their roster, do they look into picking up a RB in the later (3rd round +) range of the draft, or are they satisfied with a sub-par rushing offense given the gaudy numbers Drew Brees repeatedly puts up?
Pat Yasinskas (1:57 PM)
I think they realize they need to get another RB. Payton even admitted that yesterday.
David (New York)
Can Jerious Norwood be a between the tackles type of runner? He was great in his role last year, but do you think he's capable of taking some more carries away from Turner and keeping the Falcons running game just as productive?
Pat Yasinskas (1:58 PM)
Not really a between the tackles guy. But I think you'll see him get a few more carries next year. They know they can't run Turner into the ground.
Mark H (Greensboro, NC)
Haynesworth = Sean Gilbert Buyers beware!
Pat Yasinskas (1:59 PM)
I like the comparison.
daniel (tampa)
Do you think raheem morris's relationships with players make tampa a wanted place to go for free agents? And which free agent do you think would benefit from this?
Pat Yasinskas (1:59 PM)
Yes, definitely. Lot of players didn't like Gruden. But Tampa's got a lot to offer -- great facilities and no state income tax.
John (Atlanta)
If you think Matty Ice will win multiple MVPs, are you seeing multiple Super Bowls in his future as well? Us Falcons fans are about ready for that.
Pat Yasinskas (2:00 PM)
It's at least possible. They've got a nice core in place and Dimitroff and Smith know what they're doing.
Miles (Orlando, FL)
On the subject of the bucs possibly making cuts to free up even more cap space... What players that the bucs have under contract do you see as expendable?
Pat Yasinskas (2:01 PM)
Galloway, Hovan, Dunn?
Sean H (Orlando, FL)
Is T.J. a real possibility for the Bucs at WR?
Pat Yasinskas (2:02 PM)
I think so.
daniel (tampa)
i would hate to see phillips leave tampa do you think that can happen?
Pat Yasinskas (2:02 PM)
I think the Bucs are going to make every effort to re-sign him. But, yeah, he could leave.
JT Albuquerque
Yes Pat but they more than make up for no income tax with the toll roads do they not? So do u see the Saints drafting a running back in the latter rounds or do u think they may pick up a decent free agent somewhere?
Pat Yasinskas (2:03 PM)
I see the Saints getting an RB through free agency. Not a huge name, but a guy that can move the ball on short yardage.
Morgan (Reading, PA)
Pat, how did you feel about Garcia leaving the Bucs? Wise decision of Tampa, recently te Bucs been making key moves to make their team younger, do you think this season will be considered a "building" season for them?
Pat Yasinskas (2:04 PM)
Yeah, but "building" seasons don't cut it anymore after what Falcons and Ravens did.
Miles (Orlando, FL)
Do you see any NFC south teams going after Derrick Ward?
Pat Yasinskas (2:05 PM)
Tampa Bay.
Mickey (Orlando,FL)
Who is an actual possibility for the Bucs at WR i have herd Boldin and Housh, but are those likely?
Pat Yasinskas (2:06 PM)
I'm telling you, I think Houshmanzadeh's a real possibility.
Mark H (Greensboro, NC)
Why are people worrying about salary cap now? Shouldn't that be more of a problem towards training camp? There are still a lot of variables to come into play (start of free agency, draft, cuts, etc.).
Pat Yasinskas (2:07 PM)
Because you've got to have the cap room first to make any moves in free agency.
JT Albuquerque
So do u see Aaron Stecker as being gone now.. or will he maybe stay around for 3rd string and special team duties?
Mark (Charlotte, NC)
Do you think they will keep peppers against his will
Pat Yasinskas (2:13 PM)
No, he'd just hold out and make it even worse. Two more questions -- I'm already past the 2 p.m. cut off point.
Jacob (Troutman, NC)
What do the Panthers do wil Jake's huge salary next season?
Pat Yasinskas (2:14 PM)
They'll sit tight for right now and see how he plays this year before making any long-term decisions.
Kevin (Tampa, FL)
Where do you think Peppers will end up?
Pat Yasinskas (2:15 PM)
Don't know for sure. But don't rule out Philly or Green Bay. And, obviously, don't rule out Dallas. I know they don't have first-round picks, but that can always change.
josh bristol
pat haynesworth goin to tampa right
Pat Yasinskas (2:16 PM)
I think there's a pretty strong chance of that. All right, I've got to run. Thanks for chatting.

Album Review
Willie Nelson
's idiosyncratic vocal style has always been heavily influenced by the blues, just as much as it has been by country, pop, and folk, but he'd never recorded a straight blues album until 2000's
Milk Cow Blues
. Any longtime
fan will undoubtedly be quietly thrilled with the idea of a straight blues album, and the very first notes make it seem like the record will deliver on its promise. Then
Francine Reed
starts singing. Yes,
Milk Cow Blues
is designed as a star-studded duets album, which is apparently the only way major labels think a new album from a veteran superstar will attract press attention and fan curiosity. Sometimes, the concept works, at least commercially, as proved by the stunning success of
. Here, the idea doesn't work quite as well, with the exception of the appearance of
Dr. John
. Nelson is in great voice here, and his three solo tracks are outstanding.

Wilson Pickett
Share This
Of the major '60s soul stars,
Wilson Pickett
was one of the roughest and sweatiest, working up some of the decade's hottest dancefloor grooves on hits like "In the Midnight Hour," "Land of 1000 Dances," "Mustang Sally," and "Funky Broadway." Although he tends to be held in somewhat lower esteem than more versatile talents like
Otis Redding
Aretha Franklin
, he is often a preferred alternative of fans who like their soul on the rawer side. He also did a good deal to establish the sound of Southern soul with his early hits, which were often written and recorded with the cream of the session musicians in Memphis and Muscle Shoals.
Before establishing himself as a solo artist,
sang with
the Falcons
, who had a Top Ten R&B hit in 1962 with "I Found a Love." "If You Need Me" (covered by
the Rolling Stones
) and "It's Too Late" were R&B hits for the singer before he hooked up with Atlantic Records, who sent him to record at Stax in Memphis in 1965. One early result was "In the Midnight Hour," whose chugging horn line, loping funky beats, and impassioned vocals combined into a key transitional performance that brought R&B into the soul age. It was an R&B chart-topper and a substantial pop hit (number 21), though its influence was stronger than that respectable position might indicate: thousands of bands, black and white, covered "In the Midnight Hour" on-stage and record in the 1960s.
had a flurry of other galvanizing soul hits over the next few years, including "634-5789," "Mustang Sally," and "Funky Broadway," all of which, like "In the Midnight Hour," were frequently adapted by other bands as dance-ready numbers. The king of that hill, though, had to be "Land of 1000 Dances,"
's biggest pop hit (number six), a soul anthem of sorts with its roll call of popular dances, and covered by almost as many acts as "Midnight Hour" was.
didn't confine himself to the environs of Stax for long; soon he was also cutting tracks at Muscle Shoals. He recorded several early songs by
Bobby Womack
. He used
Duane Allman
as a session guitarist on a hit cover of
the Beatles
' "Hey Jude." He cut some hits in Philadelphia with
Gamble & Huff
productions in the early '70s. He even did a hit version of
the Archies
' "Sugar, Sugar." The hits kept rolling through the early '70s, including "Don't Knock My Love" and "Get Me Back on Time, Engine Number 9."
One of the corollaries of '60s soul is that if a performer rose to fame with Motown or Atlantic, he or she would produce little of note after leaving the label.
, unfortunately, did not prove an exception to the rule. His last big hit was "Fire and Water," in 1972. He continued to be active on the tour circuit; his most essential music, all from the 1960s and early '70s, was assembled for the superb Rhino double-CD anthology
A Man and a Half
It's Harder Now
, his first new material in over a decade, followed in 1999.
spent the early part of the 2000s performing, before retiring in late 2004 due to ill health. He passed away on January 19, 2006, following a heart attack.

Sports legends Chris Evert and Greg Norman are engaged, they told the press at a golf tournament in South Africa on Friday.
The couple got engaged last Sunday while traveling to South Africa from the U.S., Evert, 52, revealed to reporters while announcing a new tennis center she is building, according to Reuters.
Asked about wedding plans, she said, "Well, it is an engagement ring. ... We don't know when and where we'll be married though."
Norman, 52, declined to add anything extra, leading Evert to joke, "Why don't you say something to them? Gee, you're a big chicken!"
Evert, a former tennis champion, and Norman, a top pro golfer, both split from their spouses in the past year – Evert from her husband of 18 years, skiing champ Andy Mill, and Norman from his wife of 25 years, Laura.

All these links were working when I posted this to the forum (26th February 2005 18:08). However, since IBO does not allow schools publish papers online, many were taken down. That is why you cannot access many papers anymore.
I found some papers on the Internet. So, download them, if you need. (These links can be also found in other threads).
However, I would like to ask you for one thing.
Do not post requests for papers to this thread. Only links to papers/sites with papers. Use other threads to ask for papers.

For searching for papers: try to put this to the search engine:
"until instructed to do so" diploma programmeAnd use as many search engines as you can.

Once I wrote little "guide", how to find papers on the internet and sent it to someone. But I think, it might be helpful for you. So here it goes:
Every paper contains sentence "Do not open this examination paper until instructed to do so". Every paper contains words Diploma programme. Almost every paper is PDF file.
So you take search engine and input this query:
"until instructed to do so" diploma programme
(with quotation marks). You can also specify that you want to search for PDF files (not necessary).
Then you find good search engines. Google is the first choice, however it does not find too many papers. You can use Google to find another search engines. Good search engines are Pandia (http://pandia.com), that sends your query to 5 or 6 another engines and sorts the results, msn search (http://search.msn.com) or SOGOsearch (www.sogosearch.com).
When you find a paper, then look at its address. In search engine you usually get only one paper from one site. And when there is one paper, usually there are more somewhere close. So, you take the address of the PDF paper and delete everything, that is behind last slash ('/'). Then you enter it to browser. Now let's take two examples.
a) you find this in search engine:
So you erase everything behind last / and result enter to browser:
You will see error message. So you will erase again everything behind last / and enter it again:
Now you get a page, where either are links to desired papers (not this case), or link to page, from where you an download the papers (in this example link saying "download physics material").
b) you find in search engine for example this:
you delete everything behind last / and enter it to browser. You see then directory listing. In that case it is good to go one or more directory up to see, if there are more papers. So in this case it is directory
In this case it is also good to browse everything on that server to see, if there are no more papers (on this site you can find also computer science
and some more subjects.
c) you find in search engine for example this
http://www.aselley.com/documents/exams/Nov00SLp2.pdf (does not work anymore)
when you try to use previous steps, you find either errors or no link to papers. In this case you can guess names of papers. Here they were for example these:
(you change level, paper or session). Sometimes it works (it did here).
Another way of searching for papers is asking other IBers. This way you can get to FTPs and sites, that are not available to public.
Math Methods
And I do not care about requests. Most of the time I cannot do anything about them.
does anyone have IB Music past yr papers? it'd be good if you could upload it on www.yousendit.com =) thanks
fyi. email it to yourself, and then you'd get a link.. then you can post the link on the board, and everyone can download the file.. (I think this would be an easier way to share IB past yr paper collections.. [zip it up] cos the IBO wont be able to shut these down, unlike FTP sites.)
maybe someone could start a collection of past yr papers, vade mecum(s) and syllabuses? =)
Here you go!
