Williams shows range center stage
Defensive Gems: Maturing Yanks outfielder makes big plays
By Andrew Pentis / Special to MLB.com | February 12, 2013 3:38 AM ET
In retrospect, Mason Williams finds it all too funny. During each of his pre-2010 Draft workouts for the Yankees, he was always instructed to line up at shortstop, not center field, where he transitioned his sophomore year of high school in Orange County, Fla.
"I'm a huge Derek Jeter fan, so to even think I maybe had a remote chance to play shortstop some time after him was huge," Williams, now 21, says. "I don't really know what went through their mind."
New York was undoubtedly seeking an eventual replacement for the club's aging captain two Junes ago, employing its first picks on teenage shortstops, Cito Culver and Angelo Gumbs. In the fourth round finally was Williams, the 145th overall draftee in his class.
And now? Baseball's 41st overall prospect.
An ability to hit and steal bases props up his profile, sure, but Williams is widely regarded as one of the game's next best defensive center fielders. This came with work. After adjusting his throwing motion -- moving from short, he raised his right arm's slot to generate more back-spin on the baseball -- Williams started learning the real nuances of his new spot: like focusing his gaze on home plate -- all while standing, bended at both knees, 300 feet away.
"He is really athletic, but he also reads the ball off the bat and has an ability to project where it's going to end up," says Mark Newman, the Yankees' senior vice president of baseball operations. "I don't know how much of that is innate. I don't know how much of that is the time he spends doing this, but he was really good when he signed with us, so if he started at a high level, he has improved."
BOB -- or Balls off the Bat -- has helped Williams the most in this most important of area of strong center field play. All of his Yankees coaches -- from Tom Slater and Ty Hawkins at Class A Short-Season Staten Island in 2011 and Carlos Mendoza and Greg Colbrunn at Class A Charleston in 2012 -- emphasized BOB on a daily basis.
"We ask the outfielders to move into different positions. We let them play shallow or in, we let them play regular depth and we let them play deep. When they're in, we challenge them to break on balls that are [hit] over their head," says Pat McMahon, who in addition to coordinating Yanks' international player development, teaches the system's outfielders. "You can fungo as many, you can pitching-machine a lot of balls to work that technique and footwork, but when there's added practice and it's live and playing it like a game situation, we think it's the best outfield defensive drill to help players continue to grow and get better."
So it's a step beyond "power shagging", the routine of another American League East center fielder of the future.
"I treat that BOB session like a real game," says Williams, who enjoys watching the first-step quickness of Major League glove men Austin Jackson (Tigers) and Adam Jones (Orioles). "I try to take the same reads and jumps and angles as I would in a game."
And how does he make his reads? Williams will watch the flight of his pitcher's pitch and the swing plane of the hitter's bat-head. These two pieces of information, once combined, get his cleats moving quicker in the direction of a fly ball or line drive that should be outside his reach. (An example of a read: If the batter's hack on an outside fastball is late, Williams can assume that the ball will cut away from him. A righty batter would strike the ball toward right-center, a lefty toward left-center.)
The head-start Williams chases gives him opportunities to lay out for would-be extra-base hits.
"His speed, quickness of the break, efficiency of the route give him range," Newman says. "There's [been] a bunch of dives, flat-out, full body-extended dives. One in Staten Island [in 2011]: He was diving away from the plate, in the direction of the fence. Not in, not even lateral. In is easiest and lateral is next. Away from the plate and toward the fence. You don't see that very often, and he made one of those."
Williams also made one of these that same season: In the top of the eighth inning of Class A Short-Season Staten Island's New York-Penn League Championship clincher on Sept. 13, 2011, he completed -- with an immodesty after the fact that seems uncomfortable on his tongue -- a "Willie Mays kind of play."
"I was playing [the batter] a little shallow, but he got a good pitch and he drove the ball to center," he remembers. "Off the bat, I thought I was beat, so I literally turned around and put my head down and started running to the fence, and I look up, and I'm tied with the ball and actually have a chance. It was more of a basket catch. I stayed on my feet for that one."
The grab, among his favorites for its timing, kept the opposition's leadoff man off the bases in a game the Short-Season Yanks won for the crown an inning later, 2-1.
"Those plays, him going to the wall, aren't unusual," says right fielder Tyler Austin, a fellow '10 draftee who has played alongside Williams with three teams over the past two seasons, including in Staten Island. "He actually made a couple in Charleston that were exactly like that, plays where I'm like, 'Oh, that ball's going to the wall' and he just comes and makes the unbelievable play.
"I don't think I've ever played with a center fielder better than him. With him out there, it's just a lot of stress off the balls that I can't quite get to and he's running down. He's going to make the unbelievable catch every chance he gets."
Beyond that shortstop-like athleticism and BOB-taught positioning, there's this, too. Austin and McMahon allude to it; Newman calls it an acrobatic style that leaves no room for fear of fences; Williams refers to it simply as helping out his team, which will likely be Class A Advanced Tampa come April.
"If I have a chance to catch [the ball] -- wherever it is -- I'm going to go 100 percent and try to catch it," he says. "Whether that is standing up, or running to the warning track, or diving. Whatever it is, I'm willing to do it."

A. J. dela Houssaye, IV, MD, FACS
"Many of my patients drive and fly long distances to see me because we offer the most advanced technology in Louisiana at a very good price."
(866) 750-7087
Dr. A. J. dela Houssaye, IV
Serving LASIK Patients in New Orleans and the Surrounding Area
Experienced, Renowned Surgeon
A. J. de la Houssaye, known as "Dr. D" to his patients, is a Board Certified Ophthalmologist and the Medical Director of SEECA. Dr. D is a Certified VISX Refractive Surgeon in LASIK, CustomVue Lasik, PRK and PTK.
State-of-the-Art Technology:
Dr. D has a passion for technology and has invested in the most advanced Lasik platform available. The VISX S4 CustomVue laser with ActiveTrak and Iris Registration is regarded as the most sophisticated and precise refractive surgery device in the world and provides the highest level of individualized refractive surgery available. Dr. D performs all refractive surgery at SEECA in a dedicated Refractive Surgery Suite.
ReZoom Your View of Life With the ReZoomTM Multifocal IOL
In addition to providing laser eye surgery, Dr. D provides treatments for those in need of intraocular lens implants (IOLs). Dr. D's cataracts patients are treated with specialized implants that include pseudophakic lenses such as Crystalens, AcrySof ReSTOR, ReZoom, and phakic lenses.
Affordable Pricing
Dr. D is committed to offering the most advanced vision correction options at a fair price. "I want to make this amazing procedure affordable to everyone, which is why we offer the CustomVue Wavefront Guided procedure at an affordable price with no hidden fees. We also offer interest free financing." The entire team is passionate about providing five-star customer service. Our customer satisfaction surveys show that our patients really appreciate the effort we put into giving them a wonderful experience. "Many of my patients drive long distances to see me in Houma because we offer the most advanced technology at a fraction of the price."
Accredited LASIK Surgery Suite
Dr. D's attention to detail is exemplified in his design of the Lasik Suite. The VISX laser sits on a beautiful marble floor, surrounded by accent lights, a giant Italian Tapestry and original art work. Most people are not aware that the VISX laser must be operated within a specific range of environmental conditions. To ensure consistent performance of the laser, Dr. D set up the Lasik Suite with an independent air conditioner system, a dedicated air purifier and a computer system that constantly records the air temperature and humidity. This system ensures excellent air quality in the Lasik Suite at all times. Dr. D added a backup power supply which ensures the completion of all refractive procedures, even in the event of a power surge or power outage.
Dr. D invented a computerized Electronic Medical Records System to maximize Lasik outcomes by providing unlimited access to critical data during the Lasik procedure. There are five large computer displays in the Lasik Suite that Dr. D uses to monitor all facets of the refractive process. This technology dramatically improves the safety of all refractive procedures performed at SEECA.
Dr. D also invented a patent-pending device called the "Laser Guided True Scan" that dramatically improves the calculated lens power used during lens exchange refractive surgery.
Since founding SEECA in 1998, Dr. D has performed thousands of surgeries including refractive, cataract, glaucoma, laser and plastic surgery. Dr. D has always prided himself on excellence in surgery and is constantly striving to improve his results.
To schedule a personal consultation with Dr. D and learn more about your vision correction options, contact SEECA at (866) 750-7087 or or Email Dr. D below with any questions regarding your vision correction options.

Dr. D. and his staff at SEECA have been specially trained to use the latest technologies in the ophthalmic field. When performing LASIK, Dr. D uses the CustomVue procedure, which combines the VISX S4 Excimer Laser and the WaveScan Wavefront System to provide a customized solution.
The WaveScan Wavefront System creates a detailed map of the eye that is 25 times more precise than the measurements used by conventional lasers. This map is used to create an individualized set of instructions for the VISX S4 Excimer Laser that is unique to each person (much like a fingerprint).

What Do Patients Say About Dr. de la Houssaye?
Dr. D. with Paul Fairless
Paul Fairless, Florida...
"I flew in from Florida because I heard Dr. D and SEECA were the best. After the amazing vision I have now, I must say that Dr. D and the team at SEECA exceeded my expectations."
From a 14 year old patient...
"I think Dr. D is very nice. I'm 14 years old and I love the care I receive from everyone in his office. Dr. D likes to take his time and show concern to his patients. I was transferred to this office. I don't think I could have found a better doctor."
Highly recommended...
"I would recommend him to all of my family and friends who wear glasses or contacts. His staff is extremely courteous and knowledgeable and his interior decor is stunning."
R.R. Dallas, Texas...
"I have to give a shout out to the doctor who did my lasik surgery. He is the best eye doctor in the world. I can say that without dispute because he fixed my eyes. Dr. A. J. dela Houssaye IV "Dr. D" is the medical director for Seeca Eye Clinic in Houma, LA. This guy is like no other doctor I have met in my 12 years of being a paramedic. Dr. D is so personal, and friendly and real. His staff are all so kind and it is really shocking to see people working in a doctor's office to be so nice. Dr. D treats every patient as he would his own family.
Dr. D. with R. R.
I had my operation in May of 2008,
"Two days after the surgery I could see 20/15 with some blurriness. It has now been 7 months and I can see 20/13 with no problems. You are welcome to watch the video below to view the operation. I will warn you that if you are sensitive to medical procedures you may want to skip it. I think I look horrible in the video, but just remember; I was a little bit nervous.
I had been suffering from sever headaches for about a year. I knew something was wrong with my glasses or contacts and visited a local eye doctor several times; just for her to tell me everything is ok. That didn't stop the headaches and the pressure I was having on my eyes. I was seriously worried there was a major problem. A friend, Mark, told me about Dr. D. He took me to see him and without an appointment Dr. D evaluated me the same day. He agreed the issue was probably related to me changing from contacts to glasses frequently and suggested lasik surgery. I was a little nervous about it, I mean I only have two eyes and as with any surgery there is a possibility of something going wrong. I asked Dr. D how many times he has had a complication with the surgery. He told me his criteria was very strict and if I didn't pass his test not to go and find someone to do it anyway, so I agreed. I turned out to be a candidate for the surgery, so we continued with the testing. I was so impressed with the surgery that I told everyone about it. I even sent my brother to Dr. D for lasik surgery, as his birthday present for 2008. It has changed his life also. Living without glasses is such a wonderful freedom. So my brother and I have brand new eye balls thanks to Dr. D.
To anyone out there interested in lasik surgery, don't go anywhere else. Visit Dr. D in Houma, LA, he is the best, its well worth the trip. The personal care Dr. D gives to each patient is genuine and sincere. He enjoys his work and he hasn't had a complication. Dr. D's work speaks for itself."
From a patient with children...
"I am very pleased with the way ya'll made my five and four year olds feel for their first visit to an eye doctor."
About the courteous staff...
"I am very satisfied with the glasses my son received. I am amazed with the things that he could not see before. The staff was very pleasant and courteous. It was an overall good experience - I was expecting it to be stressful. Thank you all."
Very professional...
"Your staff is very professional in what you do. All businesses should be run in this professional manner. Thank you all for your service."
I can see...
"Brian and I had Lasik surgery last Friday. We had it done at SEECA in Houma. If anyone is thinking about doing it, I highly recommend that you do. If you do, go to SEECA. I was extremely nervous and the staff at SEECA went out of their way to make me comfortable. A tech even came in and held my hand. My vision pre-op was 20/400. The day after my vision had improved to 20/20. It's amazing!"

A new photography installation entitled "Image of God," part of the Office of Alumni Relations' "Hope Anchors"art therapy project at Room in the Inn, will adorn the halls of Aquinas College during the Fall semester. These stunning photographs, paired with the Beatitudes, feature the faces of the homeless men and women who are students in the weekly class. "Image of God" underscores our common human dignity which is rooted in the certainty that we all are made in the image of God, in Christ's redemption, and in our ultimate destiny of union with God. The photos were taken by Harrison Hudson.
The subjects of the photographs come from many varied backgrounds. Some have been homeless all of their lives. One woman only recently became homeless after being injured in a hit-and-run without health insurance.
This art collection sets the tone for the Center for Faith and Culture's 2013–2014 Lecture Series, which takes as its theme Jesus' question, "Who do you say that I am?" For more information about the Lecture Series or for volunteer opportunities, please contact Rachel Leach, Director of Alumni Relations at (615) 383-3230 ext. 492 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.

The one true game that would sell PS3's like hotcakes would be if they did a Final Fantasy VII remake.
Dude, I still can't help but think you're trolling. However, in case you aren't, I will say this: This game still has a lot of fans. I just don't know if they would be willing to shell out at least $250 to buy a PS3 so they could play a PS3 remake of FFVII. I know I wouldn't. I probably wouldn't even buy the game, unless I found it used for under $15. And only if there was nothing else out I wanted to play. In fact, I could care less if it ever got remade because while it was pretty good, it really wasn't all that great (especially when compared with Final Fantasy VI.) In fact, it's the line between when the Final Fantasy series was great and when it went to shit. I do remember it being popular as fuck though. Everyone in college was playing it, it seemed. Still, popularity in the past doesn't necessarily translate to popularity in the present. Though the nostalgia factor could help.
I'm guessing you'd buy a copy. However, I have serious doubts that a remake of FFVII would make the PS3 "sell like hotcakes." Most people that love the game probably still own the original and don't care to upgrade their console past the PS2. However, I'd be willing to concede that sales of the PS3 may go up some if a FFVII PS3 remake was included with the console.
Anime junkie since 1984!
Yes it was a troll. Your statement about the series "went to shit" after VI is pretty biased and arrogant. ALL final fantasy games are unique in their own way, and evolve over time. Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm guessing you're probably one of the RPG fans that are stuck in the past and refuse to adapt to new changes ( correct me if I'm wrong, and give me an example on how your not). I enjoy all sorts of different styles; be it turn based, real time action, atb turn based, etc.., and you can't compare them to one another. If your a true gamer you evaluate the game on its own and don't compare it to xxx game.
idk now that its cancelled
I bought my PS3 just to play MGS4, and im glad i did. i prefer it to the 360 now.
The game that made me buy my PS3 would be Final Fantasy Versus XIII... I'm still waiting. It's been about five years now...
Assassin's Creed series is the reason why i want the PS3 so badly
So quiet...

Elective surgery is just that; elective. The approach for those seeking cosmetic surgery is different than when there's no choice in the matter. I believe that patient information, education and explanation are at the heart of what I do.
I think being a woman is an enormous benefit in understanding what my female patients are unhappy about. Their concerns are familiar to me personally, allowing me a deeper understanding. I think it is valuable to communicate orally, visually and in writing.
During the physical evaluation I like to point out what I am seeing as a surgeon. I frequently hear "I never noticed that". Knowing the advantages and disadvantages of different surgical approaches is important information for each patient so there is a greater level of understanding.
The patient has to be included in the decision making. I believe this is the essence of plastic surgery. Shape, size, scar length and placement, expense and recovery time all need to be taken into account.
It is very important to me that my patients are put at ease and never feel intimidated. My staff and I are committed to making our patients happy and to helping them feel comfortable and informed from start to finish.

Dude, you forget we've seen your troll attempts prior to this thread, once a troll n all that.
Anyway, I'm off to take a shit.................................yes...you knows it.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Ah and if you were real I would offer to walk your dog after I retired you
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Sounds like a challenge right there!
Twitter @ricbrad
Anyway figured I would write a little bit about how Im feeling.
Ive settled back in to the Training lifestyle better then I could of hoped freezer and fridge is packed to the brim with all kinds of fish and healthy turkey and turkey mince that's my main source of protein I have lots of packs of chilli rice cakes too which i have on a night with cottage cheese and salmon it really is rather yummy. Oh yes here is a great tip for you as you know before closing time the supermarkets reduce lots of meat and fish so what I do is go there around half a hour before they close and buy all the decent deals this should save you about 25% to 50% of your monthly meat and fish budget. Im feeling very very motivated to do the best I can in the sport which is going to take lots of hard work and luck. Age is thankfully on my side but who knows whats going to happen all I can do is stay true to myself and work towards my goal.
NEW GOAL Change in plan for fight date looking at November now providing progress continues at the rate its going. Also nsac rules to start with as to be honest if i do end up on the bottom Im not willing to risk the kind of injury Elbows could bring if i get tied up down there so yea Ive pretty much scrapped the full pro plan due to that fact. If i get through the fight and get the win i will most probably take the plunge then. But long way to go until that happens. Anyway im Enjoying my training Im not going to bore you with the drills we do as im sure 90% of you do the same thing so ive decided to talk about my Dogs instead Its with great regret that I can no longer take them for morning runs with me as they pull and jump up at me and simply cant be trusted. Its hopeless as I have to stop and start to sort them out and been fun loving Pit/Staffy They just want to play and not run with me so yea sad but has to be done. Thanks for reading my loyal supporters.
If what you said on the other thread is true and your gonna keep going with this blog an it's not a troll blog as you say I will follow it as I find them interesting.
Lets start off on the right foot.if I've offended you before I apologise,I know we have had difference of opinions on certain things.
It would be interesting to find out your background in martial arts and what you have competed in so we know hat level you are resuming from.
Would be cool to know what weight u are and what unplan to fight at,what your diets like and what kind of exercises and classes your training in.
I hope u see I'm being sincere.

Egyptian actress Ghada Abdel Raziq [2] has refused to comment on a recent statement by Lebanese singer Elissa [3]regarding the theme song for Ghada's latest television spectacle Ma Sibq Al Israr" (With Prior Insistency). Elissa is reported to have said that she regrets singing the song but Ghada is saying that she is "shocked" by such a statement.
According to the actress, [4] no one can change Elissa's opinion [5], but she cannot hide her disappointment that the Lebanese songstress would say such as thing as the song has seen significant success across the Arab world.
Ghada also said that she had insisted that Elissa [6] sing the theme song, as believes that it really can make a difference to a shows success, especially if sung by a respected artist. In a final twist to the tale, Ghada announced [7] that she had paid Elissa from her own pocket to avoid any further burden on the production company behind the successful drama.
Tell us what you think. Is Elissa or Ghada right? Should have Elissa have sung the song? Should Ghada have paid Elissa?

Religion makes people prejudiced, right? I mean, think about all the religious wars throughout history, or the centuries of colonial racism in the name of religion. Well, yes. But the truth is – as always – a lot more complicated. Sure, researchers have found that religious adherence predicts prejudice, especially against gays and lesbians. But another body of literature has shown that some kinds of religious belief can make people more open to outsiders and minorities. So what gives – does religion make us prejudiced and parochial, or not? The answer, according to a pair of researchers from the University of Illinois, is…yes. While religion narrows our horizons, God may expand them. [Read more…]

Dries Van Noten Fall 2012
There's always a special kind of dignity and gravitas in the atmosphere of a Dries Van Noten show. It has something to do with the grandeur of the incredible gilded, frescoed, and chandelier-hung halls of the Hôtel de Ville in Paris he shows in—surroundings that declare the epic scale of his success in sales. The pomp doesn't translate to the clothes in any showy way, though—the dignity is that of the everyday wardrobe of a rational woman who works—a fact dramatized by the simple but brilliant device of a long road of light that was suddenly picked out on the floor for Van Noten's women to walk on. Van Noten has a long relationship with these women. He knows what they like: easy yet structured tailoring, ethnic prints, a touch of handcraft and embellishment. The art of it is to maneuver within those fixed points to make something relevant to fashion each season.
Van Noten said he'd recently taken a trip to the Victoria and Albert in London—specifically, to the museum's holdings of decorative arts and costumes of the world—for print inspiration. He photographed costumes and textiles from China, Japan, and Korea, chopped up the images, and placed them, in patches, on silk mid-length dresses, blouses, and his signature jackets and coats. Gold-thread embroidery of birds in flight or dragons was worked into some of the outerwear—half the torso and a sleeve, maybe—in a way that leaves the options open for the pieces to be worn for day or night. Considerate versatility is another of Van Noten's highly valuable brand propositions.
Mixed in with Van Noten's penchant for olive-drab hints of military uniform, the ethnic touches gave his audience of customers a foretaste of how to go their own way for fall, while casting a knowing glance at fashion's emerging themes. A winter coat might be upgraded with fox-fur segments—collar, sleeve, or torso. The cut might seem roomier (check: oversize, but not freakily so). And then there's the styling knack many women will want to pull off for fall: the upturned white coat-collar, with a turtleneck beneath. One way or another, it's all about a done-up neck this season.

Find It Again and Again and Again
Do you use MS Word's Find feature?
Ever discover that the Find window is in the way when you're trying to locate the same text phrase multiple times?
I mean, it really is easier to leave the window open to use the Find Next button repeatedly than it is to close that window and start over each time. The inconvenience of the open window is worth it when compared to the "starting over" method, isn't it?!
And these are your only two choices, right?
Here's another option I'd like to offer you.
For the first Find of the text, proceed as usual. (Open the Find window, enter the text you're seeking and hit Enter).
After Word locates the text the first time, click the Cancel button.
At this point, it looks as though all is lost, but wait! There was a change you may not have noticed.
Below the vertical scroll bar, you'll find a series of buttons.
Usually, the up and down arrows are black, but when you hit the Cancel button, they turn blue. That blue color is Word's indication that it can still look for your text string.
The blue up arrow will find the next occurrence of the text above your current location and the blue down arrow will find the next occurrence of the text below your current location.
So, as you can see, you can continue with a repeated text search, without having to tolerate that open Find window. Who would have thought that a little bit of blue could be so useful?!

EARLIER: PRESS BRIEFING SET FOR 1 P.M. TODAY; NEW CLEAR CHANNEL BILLBOARDS; TEAMS SEARCHING NEWELL CREEK AREA; DODSON AND McCUNE MAY BE USING PUBLIC TRANSIT
Morning updates on the search for 13-year-old endangered runaway Samantha Dodson, who may have left with 40-year-old male Kelsey McCune:
- A press briefing is set for 1 p.m. at the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office Brooks Building (9101 SE Sunnybrook Blvd., Clackamas, OR 97015).
- The search is continuing, with the help of the FBI and other agencies. SWAT personnel, working with search-and-rescue (SAR) coordinators, are searching the Newell Creek area in Oregon City. SWAT is a uniquely skilled team well-qualified to search this terrain. They are also the largest law-enforcement resource that could be activated quickly to work with SAR coordinators.
- Authorities believe Samantha Dodson, age 13, and Kelsey "Patrick" McCune, age 40, may be using public transit. They may also have camping equipment. The Sheriff's Office is concerned about Dodson's welfare because of the record-cold temperatures expected to last for days -- leading CCSO to deploy extra resources in this case.
- Dodson's family and law enforcement are deeply concerned, and urge her to contact 911 or family as soon as possible to make sure she is safe.
- Kelsey McCune has no known address, but is known to make money doing freelance computer work. He may be carrying large duffel bags and/or backpacks with camping-type gear.
- Thanks to the help and cooperation of the FBI and Clear Channel, a new billboard is going up on McLoughlin Boulevard featuring the latest known photo of Samantha Dodson. Two more Clear Channel billboards are also planned for Washington County. An image of this billboard is attached to this release.
- Also attached to this release is a PDF of the latest public bulletin on the case. It contains a Photoshopped image of Kelsey McCune without facial hair.
- Again: If you see Samantha Dodson or Kelsey McCune, please call 911 immediately. Tips and info can also be sent to our Tip Line -- by calling (503) 723-4949 or by using the online e-mail form HERE

Hi, all,
I'm finishing up my new consultant website, and I can't decide - should I write content in first person, or third person?
My target market would be a small to mid sized business who is able to spend about $1000 per month.
Please let me know your thoughts.
I was always taught never to include any 'I's, 'my's or 'me's in any kind of professional writing. That rule always made sense, in my opinion. But I also think it depends on how personal you want to get. After all, you're not exactly writing an instruction manual. If a blogger, for example, wanted to show his personality/opinions in his writing, that rule would not apply. Try writing some sample content both ways and see how it looks.
Yes, that's the tough part. I'm not sure if I want to seem more professional or more personal.
Would you take a look at my site and give some suggestions?
I don't want to spam the forum, but with your permission I'll send over a PM.
Sure, no problem! I check it out a little bit later when I have more time and let you know what I think.
I certainly understand your dilemma. If you are a one-person business it is very difficult to write in third person unless your aim is to make your reader believe that you have a larger team than you really have. Still, you don't want to make your site look like it's all about "I".
I generally try to go for more personal so that the person reading realizes that there is a person at the other end of his/her computer. However, personal has little to do with either "I" or "he". Personal has to do with "you". Get your reader involved in your writing by using active verbs and showing him that there is a person at the other end of his/her computer.
If you are showing case studies in your portfolio, then start with "Company XYZ" needed (blah, blah, blah). Then you are fine to say "We were able to find a solution to their problem through...." because you are talking about you and your client working together.
Another example is to show your clients what they can depend on from your company. There, I think third person works well.
"You get a professional (writer, developer, designer) with XX years of experience."
It's also okay to throw in a little first person "Original articles are my specialty."
As said before, it doesn't really matter third or first person as long as you write so that your reader understands there is a person at the helm of your business. Even more important is that you show your reader that you understand there is a person at the helm of their business.
When i build up my website and put up my first article on the blog i was guided not to write it at the first person"i" because it will get a personal note and i had to focus on professional part.So i did
You could go both ways at once by writing articles using third person and placing a blog alongside it where you use first person.
um... that's second person, darling
third person actually sounds monstrously phoney
"a professional (writer, developer, designer) with XX years of experience"
is definitely third person.
"I" or "Me" is first person and "You" is second person.
So for it to be second person the sentence would read "You get you."
sorry, the sentece i quoted ~does~ use second person --
You = subject (second person)get = verb{a ... } = object
Well you need to put in a heading:
"What do you get from Company Name?
You get a professional... (and so forth)"
That is third person.
no it isn't
He gets a professional -- that's third person
They get a professional -- that's third person
You get a professional -- that's second person
sorry, but i did take english in school, ya know
It only uses second person in that it is addressing the reader. Both first person and third person use address the reader using second person and so that the reader is the second person meant by "you" is a given.
The subject of a particular sentence may be second person (and many ought to be whether you are writing in first person or third person) but that doesn't make the entire content second person since the first or third person relates to the way the topic is presented and not to the way you address the person reading it. It would make no sense NOT to address the reader in the second person. It is how you refer to yourself (1st or 3rd perason) that is what is being discussed.
You get my professional services -- first personYou get a professional service -- third person
precisely what this thread is about, and i'm glad you agree with me
sorry, no
your entire rationalization (or whatever you call it) just doesn't cut the mustard
i know english, and both of those sentences are second person
you can call it whatever you like
Using that logic "I have been thinking about her all day" is third person ...
Both are indeed second person.
If you don't believe me (and Rudy) check [here, [url=http://www.tarakharper.com/k_frstpr.htm]here, or [url=http://www.ehow.com/how_2122120_write-second-person.html]here](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-person_narrative).
Arguments aside, I think you shouldn't get too hung up on first, second or third person. The style you choose should fit what you're trying to achieve and what you want the reader to understand, feel, think, etc as they read your page.On some pages you'll want to discuss a topic which might call for a definite third person style. On other pages you'll want a conversational tone which may call for a mixture of approaches as you tell the reader a bit about you, your service, what they can expect and what they might need to do.I firmly believe that where you want to describe a person and their experience to give the reader confidence, first person works the best. It's a personal introduction by the person concerned and they're telling you, the reader, about themselves.I rarely dwell on first, second or third person. Some of my best and most successful articles written for web content talk directly to the reader and use the word 'you' often.
Eggs-actly. Well said! :teach:
I agree that both of them have a second person subject but that is NOT what the thread is about. The thread is about whether the entire article is written referring to yourself and your services personally using first person or impersonally using third person. Whether the subject of individual sentences is first, second, or third person is completely irrelevant. That the subject of a single sentence in an article is second person does not make the ENTIRE ARTICLE second person.
Using second person to write an article is rarely done because doing so implies that you are the intended reader as then all of the "you" references in what you are writing are references to yourself rather than to the person reading it.
An article written in first person personal will contain references to I, us, my, our and similar so as to make the references personal whereas an article written in third person impersonal will replace those references with a, the and similar so as to make the article less personal. If you write the article using second person introspective the you are refering to yourself as 'you'.
As an example:
First person (personal):It was a mistake for me to believe what I read about how inefficient ORDER BY RAND is.
Second person (introspective):You shouldn't have believed what you read about the inefficiency of ORDER BY RAND.
Third person (impersonal):Some articles discussing ORDER BY RAND imply that it is far less efficient than it really is compared to the alternatives.
felgall, i don't know why you keep moaning
shyflower gave a particular sentence as an example of third person, and it wasn't
nice attempted backpedal, dude
Rudy: the distinction that Stephen is making is correct.I can say, "Rudy is my friend." Although 'my' is an adjective, and Rudy is the subject, the sentence is in first person.Alternatively, if I said, "Rudy is Shyflower's friend." That sentence would be in third person. Same subject, but the modifier changes it to third person.
Take it to a business level and say "Shyflower's clients are happy people." (I hope!)
That sentence is in third person.
If I say "My clients are happy people," that sentence is in first person, regardless of the fact that in both cases 'clients' are the subject of the sentence.

Saints running back Darren Sproles has undergone surgery to repair a broken hand. He will not play Monday night against the Eagles and is out indefinitely. The injury was first made known when Sproles missed practice on Thursday. Since there wasn't much information about his hand at that time, not many people thought much of it. Unfortunately, Sproles' hand injury and that missed practice turned out to be a bigger deal than anyone imagined.
Fantasy Analysis:
Quite an unexpected gut shot to Sproles' owners. With Sproles out, Mark Ingram should see a few more carries, but probably not enough to make him fantasy-worthy. He's just not a great NFL runner. The big gainer here is Pierre Thomas , who should see more action out of the backfield as a runner and receiver. He is now a very good RB2 this week and going forward.

Humpy Wheeler bio booksigning set for Nov. 18
Race car pioneer and University of South Carolina alumnus Howard A. "Humpy" Wheeler Jr. will sign copies of his new book at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 18, at the Wild Wing Café in Columbia's Vista.
Wheeler, a former Gamecock football player and 1961 journalism graduate, will greet guests and sign his book, "Growing Up NASCAR: Racing's Most Outrageous Promoter Tells All," until 7:30 p.m.
The event, open and free to the public, is hosted by USC's Department of Athletics, School of Journalism and Mass Communications and the College of Hospitality Retail and Sport Management. Race car driver Jordan Anderson of Forest Acres also will be at the event to sign autographs. Jordan Anderson Racing is represented by Wheeler.
The event will coincide with the live broadcast, also at Wild Wing Café, of "The Spurrier Show," head football coach Steve Spurrier's talk show that airs on Citadel Broadcasting's WNKT-FM 107.5, The Game sports radio.
Wheeler is one of the most recognizable figures in NASCAR. His book chronicles both his life and career in auto racing.
The Belmont, N.C., native says he attended his first NASCAR race at age 11 and was hooked. After graduating from USC, he went on to build a career as one of the top racing promoters in the country.
The immediate past president and general manager of NASCAR's Lowe's Motor Speedway, Wheeler is credited with having transformed the 1.5-mile superspeedway into one of the world's premier auto racing venues. He is a member of seven Halls of Fame, including the International Motorsports Hall of Fame, and has earned numerous awards, including National Auto Racing Promoter of the Year and the Hugh Deery Memorial Award for outstanding service to the motorsports industry. He is chairman of The Wheeler Company, a management consulting firm for professional sports and business.
The book, released earlier this year, is published by MBI Publishing Company LLC and Motorsports. For more information about Wheeler's book signing and reception, call Terry Dixon, School of Journalism and Mass Communications, at 803-777-6898 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Redlands Police are seeking the public's help in locating a suspect in a police pursuit that resulted in a hit-and-run collision Nov. 2.
Officers were patrolling in the area of the Walmart store at California Street and Redlands Boulevard at about 6 p.m. that Friday night, when they were flagged down by a Walmart employee who reported a theft that had just occurred.
According to police reports, a 2000 Mercury Marquis, fled north on California Street at a high rate of speed and collided with another vehicle at California Street and San Bernardino Avenue.
One person was ejected from that vehicle and suffered moderate injuries. The driver fled on foot to a nearby warehouse, leaving another injured passenger in his vehicle.
Redlands Fire Department paramedics treated the injured victims, who were subsequently transported to a local hospital.
Police evacuated employees, locked down the warehouse, and used search dogs from the Colton and Fontana police departments along with air support from the Fontana PD helicopter but were unable to locate the driver.
The suspect has been identified as 28-year-old Terrell Anthony Harper, of Highland. Harper has a $100,000 arrest warrant stemming from this incident. Police say the vehicle he was driving was determined to have been stolen earlier out of San Bernardino.
Police ask anyone with additional information on the possible location of Harper to contact Redlands Police Dispatch at 909-798-7681. Anonymous tips can be provided by texting 274637 using the keyword "REDTIP." Certain non-emergency crimes may also be reported online using the Redlands Police Department's CopLogic reporting system at http://ci.redlands.ca.us/police/coplogic/start-report.html

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Thumpers' started by crankshaft, Sep 6, 2011.
thank you!!!
You're welcome, Ged. Hope someone finds something there they can eventually use.
By the way, where do stock 690 exhausts go to die? There must be a 1,000 of them piled up somewhere being eaten on by catalytic termites or something! Is my brand new one good for absolutely nothing?
P.S. I don't have a boat.
Stock 690's go where all the rest of them go....into the garage attic, under the house where my collection of BMW and Ducati stock cans go or who knows. No one actually does what they deserve....throws them in the dumpster. Some bright soul who figures out how to recycle them will get rich.
could you not just gut them and repack them or something to that extent. I have one in my furnace room collecting dust hoping it wont catch on fire.
I have yet to see a post with any pics showing a gut job. I gutted a couple BMW collector pipe cats with great results but that big muffler would likely present flow problems and have unknown effects on power delivery.
Supposing I had the time, and could weld it without paying $50 to a guy with real welding skills, I'd try it. But I'd like to see what's inside before I start cutting.
Ultimately, I think it would be cool to have a very quiet non cat stock look, even at the cost of a couple ponies...
Follow-Up: The PO, the PPO and their long time riding buddy all brainstormed and offered not only the PO's fully stocked shop but even hands on help. The problem was a corroded ground! The corrosion caused the instrument cluster temp gauge to reflect a temp "2 bars" higher than the actual engine temperature. The fan continued to cycle at the actual temperature.
So the cluster would read 12 bars and begin to flash red before the fan would even be activated at 10 bars. The engine was never actually overheating. After the "crew" sanded all contact surfaces down to a fresh shiny finish, they applied some di-electric grease and tightened it up. Voila...the cluster started behaving properly.
One question: the bike was stored most of the past year with a battery tender attached. Is it possible the trickle voltage would encourage corrosion?
Hope this experience might help someone in the future....
Hey guys, Hell for Leather held a contest to win some Kriega gear. The point was to take a picture of yourself doing something "epic" on your bike while using Kriega gear.
I made it to the final 12, and now it's up to a vote!
Here's mine, and my handle is "akirkland"
EDIT: Linky Now Worky -> HERE
Would really, really appreciate the support, or just go and vote for whoever's pic you feel is the best!
But given this is a KTM 690 thread, I would hope you guys would vote for the best bike!
^ linkey no workey...or you would have another vote
I couldn't get it to work either...
New and improved linky
This should get you there but there seems to be a formatting issue as I could only see one "vote" button at the bottom. I clicked it assuming it would bring me to a new page but instead I got a "thank you for voting" response. Guess I voted for the last picture?: http://hellforleathermagazine.com/2013/04/kriegasideup-the-finalists/#comments
It's a poorly setup page. You had to select the small circle above the pic then scroll to the bottom and click vote... somehow the very un-impressive BMW R1000 thingy is walking away with it... must have a big family, cause there is nothing epic about that... or most of those pictures for that matter.
done. I see you are in the lead
Fixed the link in my previous post, and here's another -> HERE
It really is a poorly setup page, there is a radio button you have to toggle above the picture, then scroll down and select "Vote"
Thanks for the votes, guys!
Mine went to a scrap yard.
Am I the only 690 owner that hates the stock heat shields ??
I keep seeing them on everyones bikes and wonder why you still have them on there. IMHO they put the heat back towards the bike and creates or could possibly create all sorts of issues.
I carved mine down to less than half its original size and have had no issues with heat what so ever. Cool to the touch and no complaints from my passenger. In fact, Im going to shrink them down even further.
I know there are a few companies that created some carbon fiber ones - but they are modeled after the stock ones and still look hideous
Both mine eventually fell off, damn screws vibrated out all the time. I replaced em with the CF ones figuring they'd do better with the vibration. So far so good. I don't give a shit how they look, all that matters to me is that they work.
I have Carbon ones on my bike witha little blue loctite they have lasted many of miles and the LOOK GREAT !!!
I couldn't agree more! They completely ruin the lines of the bike on the left side. Was considering how to get rid of them too, would love to see a pic if you have any.
Even getting rid of one is a vast improvement
(not my bike)

Property taxes are due October 1, and are delinquent after December 31.
There are two reasons for your property taxes to increase: (1) a tax rate (millage) increase, or (2) an increase in the appraised value of the property. The first reason, a tax rate increase, would have to come from a vote of the citizens or by the taxing authority (County Commission) to increase (or decrease) the millage rate. The second situation, involving an increase in the appraised value, would come from a court ordered re-appraisal or from an "economically-based" increase in the market value of properties in the county, resulting in an increase in the appraised value.
A mill is one-tenth of one cent. The number of mills an agency charges for taxes is multiplied times the assessed value of the property, and the result is the tax amount due. For example: $100,000 (Appraised Value) X (Assessment Rate: 10%) = $10,000 (Assessed Value) X .0325 (County Millage Rate) = $325.00 (Tax Amount)
A homestead exemption is defined as a single-family owner-occupied dwelling and the land thereto, not exceeding 160 acres. The property owner may be entitled to a homestead exemption if he or she owns a single-family residence and occupies it as their primary residence on the first day of the tax year for which they are applying. There are several different types of exemptions a home owner can claim in the State of Alabama. Please visit your local county office to apply for a homestead exemption. For more information regarding homestead exemptions, view our Homestead Exemptions page.
The Revenue Commissioner places a value on all property. This office is located in your local County Courthouse.
The County Revenue Commissioner is not required to mail tax notices and does so only as a courtesy to the taxpayer. You are responsible for the payment of taxes whether you receive a statement or not.
1. You may visit the county tax office and make payment by cash, check, or money order. 2. You may pay by mail. View County Offices for mailing addresses. 3. Ask your mortgage company to pay the tax bill.

1. Record the deed in the Probate Office. 2. Assess the property in the Revenue Commissioners Office. Note: Be sure to bring the deed. 3. If you purchased property during the year, you need to make sure the taxes are paid. The tax bill will usually be in the previous owner's name. You are responsible for taxes on all property you own, no matter how the bill may be listed. 4. Report all address changes promptly to your local Revenue Commissioner's Office in writing.
The law requires that owners, or their agent, must visit the Revenue Commissioner's Office no later than December 31 to sign a new assessment officially reporting any improvements made to or any removal of structures or features from their property, on or before October 1 of that year. Examples of improvements that should be reported would include: new structures or additions, swimming pools, extensive repairs, remodeling, or renovations; adding a fireplace, extra bath, patio, deck, carport, garage, etc. However, such things as re-roofing, minor repairs and painting, (normal maintenance type items), would not require a reassessment.
All Alabama counties are now under an 'annual reappraisal' program which requires the assessing official to review 1/4 of the County each year, and to assess any/all additional buildings identified during this process for the upcoming tax year. A review of 100% of the property in a county will be completed over a four year equalization cycle. The benefit to annual equalization is to improve equalization among similar and dissimilar properties. The annual equalization process also provides a stable as well as an enhanced revenue stream from property taxes for schools, municipal, county and state government. An equally important result is the small annual market value increase annually instead of the large market value increase of the four-year cycle. The Director of the Property Tax Division has the duties and responsibilities of managing the activities of the Division. The Code of Alabama 1975, Section 40-7-74 and 40-2-11, directs that the property reappraisal program shall be administered by the Commissioner of Revenue and supervised by the Director of the Property Tax Division.
The Code of Alabama 1975, Sections 40-3-20, 40-3-24, and 40-3-25 detail the appeals process. If you believe your property value is too high, you may file a written protest with the County Board of Equalization (BOE). Property owners are given 30 days to file an appeal after receiving written notice of change in valuation. Upon your appeal, you will be contacted by a county appraiser to review your valuation. If, after this review, you are still not satisfied with your valuation, a hearing will be set for you to formally meet with the BOE to present information you believe justifies a change in value. Following this hearing, you will be notified of the decision of the Board of Equalization. The Code of Alabama 1975, Section 40-7-71 states that any property owner may appeal from the finding of the county board of equalization. Such appeal shall be to the Circuit Court of the county where the property is located. Appeals may be made to Circuit Court within 30 days from the date the Board of Equalization notified you of their decision. In order to preserve your right to carry the appeal to Circuit Court, taxes must be paid by December 31 or a bond filed in Circuit Court in double the amount of taxes due.
If you are over 65 years of age, or permanent and totally disabled (regardless of age), or blind (regardless of age), you are exempt from the state portion of property tax. County taxes may still be due. Please contact your local taxing official to claim your homestead exemption. For county contact information, view the county offices page.
A public tax auction is held every year usually the first Monday in May. Everything that hasn't been paid prior will be auctioned off to the highest bidder.
Yes. You may redeem your property within 3 years of sale by paying all taxes, interest, fees, and penalties at the rate of 12% per annum.
No. Paying taxes on property does not constitute ownership. State law allows taxes to be paid by persons other than the owner(s).
The Property Tax Division makes the Book of Lands available for purchase and open for public inspection between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM, Monday through Friday, except holidays. A transcript of properties available for purchase can also be viewed and printed from the following: transcripts of tax delinquent property.
Yes. The taxes follow the property. The tax liability must be satisfied by the property owner whether the taxes were incurred prior to current ownership. Never purchase property before having a title opinion from a reputable source. It is advisable to consult a competent attorney regarding your contemplated purchase of tax delinquent property.
Manufactured Home registration is due October 1, and delinquent November 30. Manufactured home owners have 30 days after they purchase a manufactured home or 30 days after it enters into the state to register their manufactured home.
The base registration fee is $24.00 for a Single-Wide and $48.00 for a Double-Wide or larger which is used for residential purposes. If the home is used for commercial purposes, these amounts are $48.00 for Single-Wide and $96.00 for a Double-Wide or larger.
Possibly. Sales tax could be due if it was not paid when the home was purchased. Some local fees may also apply such as garbage, fire, etc. Delinquent fees are added if the manufactured home is not registered in a timely manner.
Yes. All manufactured home owners who are over the age of 65 shall be exempt from payment of the registration fee on their owner-occupied manufactured home. However, the owner will be subject to the payment of the $5 issuance fee.
Yes. The manufactured home owner shall immediately attach the decal to the manufactured home. At all times thereafter, the decal should be displayed at eye level on the outside finish of the manufactured home for which the decal was issued. The decal shall be located one foot from the right corner on the side facing the street so as to be clearly visible from the street.
Personal Property is property not permanently affixed to or part of the real property, such as furniture, fixtures, and/or equipment. Everything that is not real estate is personal property.
Every individual, firm, or corporation owning business personal property in Alabama on October 1 of each year is required to report personal property. Any individual, firm, or corporation owning aircraft based in Alabama, regardless of use, and any individual firm or corporation that purchases a permanent trailer tag for a tractor trailer, truck trailer, or semi-trailer.
A complete itemized listing of all personal property owned on October 1 must be provided to the local assessing official in the taxing jurisdiction in which the property is located. This list must be submitted between October 1 and December 31 of each year to avoid penalty. The list must include a description of the property along with its acquisition date and cost.
You may contact your local county office to receive a form by mail or fax. Or, you may download the Business Personal Property Return Form.
All furniture and fixtures as well as machinery and equipment purchased for and used by the business.
Yes, the local assessing official must receive a form every year no later than December 31 to report equipment that is owned and located in the county as of October 1.
Yes, all assets owned as of the October 1 lien date must be reported with acquisition dates and acquisition costs. The depreciation schedule used in preparing income tax returns may be used. However, the depreciation schedule must be adjusted for additions and deletions so that it will contain property owned by the business on the October 1 lien date. Also, assets which are expensed rather than capitalized for income tax purposes and are not included on the depreciation schedule must be added to the taxpayer's listing so that all personal property is reported.
The Property Tax Division of the Alabama Department of Revenue has established procedures in the Alabama Personal Property Appraisal Manual for determining market value and the assessed value of personal property. All counties in the state of Alabama use this manual to achieve uniformity. The type of business, type of equipment, acquisition year, and acquisition date are all used in figuring values. For example, computer equipment depreciates more quickly than items of office furniture. Business Personal Property falls into Class II property and is assessed at 20% of its market value.
If you fail to file a listing of your Business Personal Property, a field review will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Title 40 of the Code of Alabama 1975. During this field review, a listing will be made of your business personal property and this property will be assessed to you.
You will receive a tax bill the following October 1st, just like ad valorem taxes on real property. For instance, what you own this October 1 you will receive a tax bill for those items the next October 1.
When you purchased the equipment you paid sales tax and this is ad valorem tax or "ownership" tax that is solely based upon value. It is based neither upon the ability of the owner to pay nor upon the amount for which the property last sold.
Yes, and it will be. All counties are currently following the Alabama Department of Revenue guidelines to regularly audit businesses which have personal property.
You are encouraged to contact your county's personal property department. For county contact information, view the county offices page.
Upon the sale, trade, total destruction, permanent removal from Alabama, theft without recovery, or other transfer of a motor vehicle constituting Class I, Class II, or Class IV property under Section 40-8-1, the owner of such motor vehicle will be entitled to a pro rata credit for the ad valorem taxes paid for the remainder of the then current period for which such taxes have been paid.
The owner has sixty (60) days to claim the credit voucher from the date the vehicle is sold, traded, totally destroyed, permanently removed from Alabama, stolen without recovery, or transferred to claim the credit voucher in the county in which the taxes were originally paid.
Yes. Ad valorem tax is a property tax and not a use tax and follows the property from owner to owner. Therefore, unlike registration fees, taxes accumulate even when a vehicle is not used on the highway.
Yes. As stated above, Ad valorem tax is a property tax and not a use tax and follows the property from owner to owner. Therefore, unlike registration fees, taxes accumulate even when a vehicle is not used on the highway. When an Alabama resident buys a vehicle with an outstanding ad valorem tax lien, the buyer must: Pay all ad valorem tax that has accrued on the purchased vehicle since it was last registered and any applicable interest and penalties on taxes that are delinquent, except for the ad valorem taxes that would have been due in arrears for the 1999 tax year. Also, transfer the buyer's current plate to the vehicle or purchase a new plate for the vehicle within 20 days of acquisition to avoid a late penalty.
A tax map is used to identify ownership of each parcel of land in the county. These drawings are representations of geographical features, property lines, and parcel identification numbers. Although tax maps are for tax purposes only and cannot be used for conveyance, these maps have proven to be very helpful to taxpayers for many reasons.
Continuously. Changes are received by the Mapping Department daily. These changes usually result from deeds being assessed in the Appraisal Department and/or recorded in the Probate Office. Other updates come from newly recorded subdivision plats, right-of-way surveys, etc.
This 16 digit number uniquely identifies every piece of property within the county for tax purposes. The parcel id number is broken down as follows:
Example: 16-09-31-3-004-019.003
Multiple parcel numbers do not affect the tax rate on your property. These numbers are simply for location and identification. There are several possible reasons for multiple parcel identification numbers: Property lies in two different sections, and each section is numbered independently, each parcel was previously owned by different individuals, or property was purchased at different times.

"The more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war"
Red State - really solid film about fundamentalists in America, doesn't do the cheesy hollywood style and is quite harsh and gritty, Kevin Smiths first serious film as well, still has some dialougue heavy moments but without the college humour of his other films, worth a watch to be fair.
Tron Legacy - saw this the other week, s'ok, flashy, looks nice in HD, film itself is a bit meh, but passed a couple of hours and wasn't awful is about as much as I can say.
Thor - best superhero movie I have seen in ages, funny, fast action pace and looks fantastic. Mate of mine in work thought it sucked though so it seems a love it or hate it film. Personally, would recommend it for a saturday night, few beers n some popcorn with the missus type film.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
The Skin I live in.
Saw this with the Mrs. This dude wrongly kidnaps a dude he thinks raped his daughter then forces him to have a sex change then ends up banging him before it all goes tits up (Literally). - Its actually good but be warned - its uncomfortable Spanish waffle
Tucker and Dale vs Evil - superb horror comedy, spin on the usual crazy rednecks in the woods killing college kids. Brilliant at times, the scene with the chainsaw and running through the woods had me creased.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Watched Horrible bosses today.Not bad.
Strictly Conscious Business Everytime.
Last week watched La Horde - french zombie horror in a tower block - ok, amusing at times, not very scary but worth a watch if you like the ole zombies - better than anything Romero has done lately.
Attack the Block - not bad, funny in parts, but plays some of it a bit serious and couldn't take to the main characters - portrayed as chavvy thugs then heroe's - just didnt fit right, but overall worth a watch, quite entertaining to be fair.
Sig awaiting witty quote from someone.
Watched that horrible bosses last night after the above recommendation, it was ok and pretty funny in parts.
