Accommodation and facilities:
The setting is fantastic, very romantic. The manageress is exceptional. The bungalow was very simple and the bathroom not very practical, water not very clean but I suppose this can be expected because of the setting. Hotel sevice and food ZERO! We would never return to this hotel.

Accommodation and facilities:
The standard rooms are really not good. The beds are as hard as wood, the towels are dirty and you can fall on cockroaches. You will need a torch to see where you re walking when you go back to your room at night and also to see if there is a crab (not small ones) that is going to jump in front of you. The place is very nice, it worth staying one night but not more.

The owners of
Nangyuan Island Dive Resort
have created an island retreat unusual in comparison to other resorts of Southeast Asia. Located on a small private island near Koh Tao in the Gulf of Thailand, Koh Nang Yuan is a vision of paradise. Her beauty takes your breath away. Her atmosphere is so extraordinary it makes you want her to remain a well-kept secret only for you and your closest friends. Her comfortable bungalows make you want to stay forever. Her beaches, formed by the ocean's currents interacting with the three peaks of the island made this triple strand of beach which is unique to the world. The resort's architects studied the island carefully, and built a resort harmonious with the natural rock formations of the island. They left the beach untouched, and built on the boulders of the island to ensure privacy, solitude, and environmental serenity.
Constructed originally in 1986, the quality of the accommodation and facilities has steadily improved to meet the demands of today's travelers. Your private bungalow ranges in comfort from standard to deluxe, a spacious sleeping area and living space, and a private terrace facing the sea. From our first day, we have made it a point to preserve the environment of the island and surrounding sea.
Therefore, during your stay we ask you to respect some basic ideas on environmental protection. Please avoid bringing plastic bottles or cans to the island, and do not take corals or shells - alive or dead - from the beach or sea. Finally, do not feed the marine life or bird life living on or around the island.
Nangyuan Island Dive Resort
offers several different levels of comfort to fit your budget and expectations. All bungalows come equipped with a refrigerator and some with VDO or living room.

:: The restaurant and coffee shop ::
In our intimate island restaurant, our guests enjoy some of the best Thai cuisine in the Gulf of Thailand. In between swims, enjoy a refreshing drink or cocktail at our beach bar. Our Coffee Shop is accessible by a short walk - or a short swim depending on the tide - offering a stunning view of Koh Nang Yuan.
:: The Shop ::
We have designed our diving center to balance with the resort's idea of environmental harmony. Integrated with the natural contours of the island's geological structure, we've used local wood to create a tropical island feel to the building. However, since modern diving practices, safety and comfort require modern equipment and professionalism, 25 complete sets of Scuba Pro equipment-some of the best in the world and replaced annually-along with a pure air station, insures the safest experiences underwater. Even though it may sound romantic to breathe from a bamboo tune and a mask carved from a clear piece of stone, we've confined the romantic feeling to aprs-diving in the bar and your room.
Koh Nang Yuan Divers is a PADI Resort Association Member and belongs to the distinguished world-wide organization Scuba Pro Educational Association (S.E.A). We are also affiliated with Phuket's recompression chamber, Dive-Safe Asia, thus all of our students and divers are automatically insured for free treatment in the unlikely event of a pressure-related injury.
:: The Diving services ::
The area around Koh Tao and Nang Yuan are the most famous spots in the Gulf of Thailand for scuba diving, and for good reason. Creating a dive resort was the next step in the development of the resort, as we know divers enjoy diving with friends. Due to the remoteness of Koh Nang Yuan, friends are what you make staying with us. When diving with us, you will be surrounded by your new friends and have the advantage of diving in small groups.
In 1995, the owner of one of the most prestigious dive centers in the Gulf created a dive shop fitting the style of the resort. With 10 years of experience in the area, we took our knowledge of diving sites and safety, and turned the
Nang Yuan Resort
into one of the most service oriented diving centers in Southeast Asia.
A secret waiting to be discovered and located only 15 minutes from Koh Tao. Nangyuan has one of the most beautiful beaches where you can sit and enjoy quiet sunsets on the beach, no cars or hustle or bustle.

I'm loving Camilla and Marc's AW13 collection featuring sharp tailoring, signature lace detailing and eclectic prints. If you've been following me for a while you would know that every season I have to buy at least one Camilla & Marc dress. I wonder which one it will be this season?! x Sharday

"Alone" piece at the Dogwalk in Dorchester. 1992. Krylon "Brick" force field (discontinued color, even back then), homemade green in the background. The spot was located next to the Ashmont-Mattapan trolley line. Boston's OD crew was the first to paint that spot and so much dope art was created there, including alot of the pieces that were the foundation of what people now call "Boston's no negative space" style.

Ive never pay attention to maintain my battery before, so my new bought battery endurance was decrease after a short time of using. Several days ago, the courier delivered my Dell 310-9080 battery that I purchased from laptop battery inc, I realized that I should take good care of it this time. Now I want to share some basic battery maintain method with you.
Dont use an inferior charger
Many people are taking good care of their laptop but ignore the lithium battery. When you choose a charge, if you cant find an original one, you should pick better quality one that with good brand and overcharge protection feature. Some poor quality charge can cause your battery a short life or even brings the risk of explosion.
Don't often over charge your battery
Long time of overcharging will make your battery in a high temperature status inside, it both damage your lithium battery and charge. So, just full charge is enough. If there is no overcharge protection of your charger, then the lithium battery can likely turn into a small bomb.
Finally I want to remind you that dont immediately use your battery after charging. The battery that has just fully charged is in a high temperature, the immediate use may cause a rapid increase of the internal temperature of electronic equipment, which has a bad effect on the life of electronic components

Pistorius says no intentions to kill girlfriend
Posted at: 02/19/2013 7:13 AM
| Updated at: 02/19/2013 8:04 AM
By: Associated Press | WHEC.com
Oscar Pistorius says he shot his girlfriend to death by mistake, thinking she was a robber.
The double amputee said in an affidavit read by his lawyer at his bail hearing Tuesday that he felt vulnerable because he did not have on his prosthetic legs when he pumped bullets into the locked bathroom door.
Then he realized that model Reeva Steenkamp was not in his bed. He says "It filled me with horror and fear ..."
He put on his legs, tried to kick down the door, then bashed it in with a cricket bat to find Steenkamp, 29, shot inside.
He said he ran downstairs with her, but "She died in my arms."

The State Highway Patrol is racking up another record year for drug seizures.
Troopers on Thursday confiscated 743 pounds of marijuana after stopping a pickup truck for an
improper lane change on I-70 in western Ohio. Troopers said they saw indicators of criminal
activity, and a police dog alerted them to the presence of drugs. An Arizona man was jailed in
Preble County.
The 743 pounds is the second-largest marijuana seizure this year by troopers. Patrol
spokeswoman Lt. Anne Ralston said troopers have increased emphasis on drug interdiction and
watching for signs of such crime.
Marijuana seizures by the patrol are up 151 percent over last year, and heroin seizures are
up 295 percent. Last year was a record year for seizures of drugs by the patrol.

"Good hotel, with very short transfer times"
After initially putting us in a room alongside the only (small) amount of building work going on, we were relocated, albeit at our request. Once in the new room we had a great stay - the resort was peaceful and never felt crowded. We liked the fact that it had a mix of couples, families and friend groups, so didn't feel like the clichéd Maldives honeymoon […] resort. Tried and enjoyed several of the restaurants - particularly liked the Sand Bar at sunset. It is only 10 minutes from Male and the airport - but you get very little noise. From the reception/restaurant side of the island you get views of Male, which we liked. From the other side, the more conventional view of sea and a couple of other small islands.

Cannot recommend this enough! Yes it's close to Male & you can see it from the east side but the rooms are beautiful, well kept & modern (we had deluxe pool villa) well looked after by our villa attendant every day.

World class service with a personal touch. We will go back without a doubt, probably for an anniversary. 10 mins by private speedboat so very convenient after a long flight from London.

""A wonderful getaway in the Maldives""
We just loved Kurumba and we can recommend it to those travelers who are looking for a true getaway. The island itself is located quite near the airport and the capital city, Male, but still we felt that we were far away. We traveled during the low season, which helped us to feel like we were some of the few tourists there. Oftentimes we looked to the […] left and right of our beachfront bungalow and never saw anybody. As a tourist in the Maldives, one has to know that you will spend some real money on food and other activities as they are not included in your hotel stay. The prices are high and there is an 18% tax on top of the that as well. Regardless, we totally recommend going to Kurumba and we would really like to return in the near future. Thanks, Kurumba for three wonderful nights! Ler maisAvaliação genuína de um cliente da Expedia

"Very good experience of Maldives for decent price"
The stay at Kurumba was filled with water activities, great food and wonderful live music. A very good value for money experience, the only issues we faced were the planes flying above us and late responsiveness by the staff at times. The sound of the planes too was only on one side of the island (once or twice and hour) and a worthwhile compromise […] to make for the decent fares. The staff needs to be increased though.

"Great for every occasion."
Kurumba hotel was a really good experience. The breakfast was really good, either you try the buffet or the Ocean Grill; personally I preferred the Ocean Grill as you could choose from a menu of nice breakfast dishes. The localization is good, as you can arrive really quick from Male's airport, which is one of the disadvantages as you can hear the planes […] all day long. The island is beautiful and well taken care of, the employees are really kind and always willing to help in any matter. The beach is amazing, as you just go some meters in to the sea and start seeing fish of any color plus little sharks and manta rays (the little ones that are not dangerous at all) The restaurants have nice decorations that go with the theme. They are not the best food that I have ever ate, but it is really good. I don't know if I would be back to Kurumba as there are so many other hotels in Maldives and I don't really know if I would be back to these fabulous islands as there are plenty of places to go around, but I defiantly recommend the experience in this hotel and in Maldives.

My hubby and I were on a honeymoon and we received exceptional service throughout our stay in kurumba.

Staffs were very attentive, friendly and flexible, and acceded to our […] every request to make us comfortable during our stay. On top of that, I must say the coordination between staffs was excellent. It seemed as though the staffs we came across remembered room 116 was on a honeymoon, they even remembered us by our names, and they would congratulate us spontaneously (whether or not we had seen them before).

"Relaxing hotel for a family"
Our hotel experience overall was excellent. The airport in Male is small, so it was easy to find the Kurumba service desk and representative. The hotel sent a yacht to pick us up and upon arrival, we were given cups of delicous coconut ice cream and a room upgrade without requesting it. The facility was super clean and a great deal of attention went […] into details in every area of the facility. The staff was very friendly and although we did not make many requests, they were accomodated immediately. The only downside was the buffet restaurant. The food that they had was OK and there was a lot of it, but for the cost of the buffet (USD60 per adult, per meal) the variety and type of food on offer should have been better.

"This is one place not to be missed!!"
My husband and I spent two fabulous weeks at the Kurumba for our honeymoon. We specifically chose the resort based on the fact that it had so many different resorts to choose from and it was a short boat ride away from the airport. We were not disappointed. The whole experience was incredible. From someone from reception collecting us from arrivals, […] checking us in and showing us to our room, to checkout and our transfer back to the airport. The staff were all extremely friendly and went out of their way to ensure we were ok in every way. They were always available without being intrusive. The food was AMAZING! Every meal we had was delicious and we could not fault any of the restaurants. We stayed in room 251 - a deluxe beachfront bungalow and it was our little slice of paradise for two weeks. Right on the beach, quiet and with what seemed like our own private beach with sunloungers. The outdoor shower was powerful and very hard to get out of! We did a lot of research before we booked and there were a few comments about the noise from the aeroplanes. I can guarantee you that this is not a problem. The variety of excursions were fabulous. I would totally recommend the dolphin cruise (we probably drank more in champagne than the actual cost of the trip!!) and the sunset fishing cruise. Overall, you will not be disappointed if you booked this resort. The only disappointment you will encounter is having to leave. I don't think the website gives it the justice it deserves!!

Its close proximity to the airport (a little less than a 10min. boat ride) and hence its relatively cheap transfer fees (60$ roundtrip per person) is something worth mentioning.Their generous hospitality throughout our entire stay was superb. Right from receiving […] us at the airport, upgrading us to a deluxe room AND allowing us to check-in a couple of hours earlier AND a complementary buffet breakfast on the day of arrival. We were speechless! The room was in excellent condition and the view was as if we were inside a desktop background. The beach was super neat, if it wasn't for the baby reef sharks and stingrays raid, our swimming in the sea experience would've been 10 times more enjoyable. we're lucky they were harmless though. for those who are concerned (like I was before I went) about the weather in september (which is supposed to be one of the wettest months).We learnt that tropical weather is the most unpredictable kind of weather, their wettest months could be the driest and the opposite holds true. I'd kept that in mind and so we were open for anything. But gratefully, the weather has been perfect throughout our 4 days stay. There was only one fleeting evening shower that didn't last for more than 30 minutes, and that was about it. I have to say the food was EXTREMELY pricey though! In a nutshell, I enjoyed my stay tremendously, I would go again and I recommend it for everyone. Ler maisAvaliação genuína de um cliente da Expedia
We had a villa 30 meters from the ocean, and the room was lovely, well maintained, and provided every comfort from coffee & tea maker to safe to beach and bath towels (plus hsampoo, conditioner, etc.). We had a large terrace facing the beach with a table and chairs and a chaise lounge. The setting was a tropical paradise, in fact. A coconut fell from […] a tree by the terrace and one of the gardeners cut it and gave it to use to eat--delicious. We did a tour to Male which was interesting and provided a little shopping. My only comment is that the food in the restaurants in rather expensive (plan $80 for a simple dinner for 2 with no alcohol). While there are 5 or 6 choices of where to eat, this resort is the only business on this island. It is one of the best resorts we have ever enjoyed in our world travels to 126 countries in the past 50 years.

"Great place for pure Rest and Relaxation"
We just got back from our honeymoon and we couldn't have chosen a better place than this! All the staff members were very courteous and went above and beyond to ensure we were as comfortable as can be. Would highly recommend this place for couples!Avaliação genuína de um cliente da Expedia
The staff were not friendly, after reading all the other reviews and being on holidays in seyshelles and mauritius I had high expectations that were not met. Unlike other holiday resorts I've stayed at before where all the staff make you feel welcome and have warm smile. There was only one friendly & approachable staff Ali. We were on our honeymoon […] & were not once congratulated on our marriage. We went on a private game fishing trip, our sparking wine and beer was warm as the hotel had not put the drinks on ice. We also went on a sunset fishing trip where the equipment was rubbish for the price tou pay you would expect to have fishing line that is not knotted and twisted, also the crew on this particular excursion did not speak English.

Legends of Roubaix: Hippolyte Aucouturier
Hippolyte Aucouturier
The wonderfully named Hippolyte Aucouturier was an imposing and outspoken rider whom Henri Desgrange referred to as "Le Terrible". The self-styled villain of the Peloton in black and white stripes (in fact red and blue) had the look of the silent-film nasty, yet this moustachio'd menace had a racing career spanning between only 1900 and 1908.
At the 1903 edition of Paris–Roubaix Le Terrible ordered a chase to bring back a group of escapees. Hippolyte hammered the group repeatedly by continuously upping the pace, swigging from a bottle of wine as he charged, so legend has it. As they entered the velodrome at Roubaix he passed his main rival who had somehow changed to the wrong track bike (as it was custom then to swap steeds once inside the track) and Aucouturier stole victory by over 100 metres - some claimed it was a pre-planned thwart…
The Paris–Roubaix of 1904 was the first to be run without pacers (since 1896 racers had followed motorcycles, cars and even tandems). Aucouturier was in the lead group of nine riders when the race reached the second checkpoint. The group hammered towards the control outside a café where a large crowd had gathered. They threw their machines to the floor and rushed to sign the register and get on the road again. Fights broke out between the riders but Aucouturier managed to slip away amongst the chaos and by early afternoon led the race alone.
The hardy César Garin, however, caught him with 45 km to go, Aucouturier doing a double-take to see Garin suddenly at his wheel. With 20km left Garin fell when a motorcar ran into him, remarkably he dusted himself off and recovered the distance, the pair entering the velodrome side by side. The duellers slowed to a tactical tête-à-tête, glaring at each other across the lanes. The crowd viewing this cat and mouse inside the track was only small - they had ridden so fast that only a few people had arrived in time to see them. Then Aucouturier used a mighty jump, akin to Buster Keaton astride a hobby-horse, to sprint away to victory.

Walking desks move workplaces forward
Treadmill fused into desks make big difference
SALT LAKE CITY (NBC/KSL) - At his new workstation, everything Dr. Chris Wood once did sitting, he now does standing -- while walking very slowly on a treadmill.
A telephone, computer keyboard, pencils, pads, papers -- everything you'd find on a conventional desk -- are on this new-generation workspace.
"I feel a lot more energetic," he said. "It's funny. You would think you would spend all your energy at the standing desk during the day, feeling tired in the afternoon and evening. But that's not the case. I find I have more get-up and-go."
Wood made the change following a back injury, when he found it difficult sitting in a chair for any length of time.
"And I find that doing something with my body while I'm working actually helps me focus better," said Wood.
Down the hall, co-worker Joan Golden stands and walks as well.
First- and second-year medical students at the University of Utah are standing and walking.
And at Rowland Hall, headmaster Alan Sparrow hopes his standing workspace is sending a message to students.
"But you also need to give a message that they need to move," said Sparrow. "Movement is good. Movement is healthy. Movement helps. The new book called -- not new -- but a book out called 'Brain Rules and how exercise actually helps your mind develop.'"
And who knows? For many students, sitting desks may be obsolete by the time they grow up.
So why? Why all this standing?
New studies this year paint a dismal picture of what's happening to the body when we sit.
Researcher Marc Hamilton said our muscles become as silent as a dead horse, and our calorie-burning rate drops dramatically.
Insulin effectiveness falls within a single day. The enzyme that vacuums fat out of the bloodstream plunges.
Researching Dr. Liz Joy said our metabolism simply bottoms out.
"If somebody gets up and moves just a couple of minutes out of every 20- or 60-minute segment of their day, they can lower their glucose levels and lower their insulin levels," said Joy. "We need to re-engineer our workplace so that we can re-engineer activity back into our lifestyle."
Those who've made the conversion so far claim it's a piece of cake.
"It took me only about five minutes -- five minutes I was typing almost as fast as if I wasn't moving at all," said Sparrow.
According to data collected from test groups, even 30 minutes of rigorous exercise will not reverse the downfall from sitting five- to six hours per day at the office.

UC Davis has written a football-themed rap song
More often than not, when sports-themed anthems are, well, they're bad. It takes a special skill to work football nomenclature into verse form without sounding like a complete cheeseball. Click here if you don't believe me.
But this UC Davis rap anthem "Go Hard" is, dare I say, pretty good. Don't expect to see Rev Marc and Mo Grant accept a Grammy for this one, but they get the job done.
It's too bad the team only has a couple more days to enjoy it. The 4-7 Aggies close the 2013 season at Sacramento State on Saturday.
'This is what makes us unique at Ole Miss'
Every video that Ole Miss churns out is top quality, and this one is no exception.
It starts with Hugh Freeze explaining the traits that make Ole Miss a special place to play and go to school, and then rolls into some highlights of players having fun and ballin' out.
This is really good stuff, and sums up the environment and culture that Hugh Freeze and his staff have created for their players in Oxford.
Video: All-Access inside meetings at Louisiana-Lafayette
Go inside the weight room and meeting rooms with the Louisiana-Lafayette staff in this video from the good folks over at ESPN.
After losing their first two games to Arkansas and Kansas State, the Ragin Cajun's have ripped off eight straight wins. Six of those eight wins have been by double digits.
The key to their success over the last few seasons under head coach Mark Hudspeth and his staff comes down to two things; working hard, and having fun.
"We work hard to try to be the hardest working team in the country, but also, we try to have a great time with our players." Hud explained.
There's a good reason why Hudspeth's name comes up every offseason when it comes to high profile job openings, and this clip highlighting how him and his staff operate is a great peek into why athletic directors have him on their short list of guys they want to see running their football program.

The Top Ten Athletics Directors You Need to Follow on Twitter
Twitter is great. Never before have you - the fan, the alum, the employee, the coach, the spambot - enjoyed the access to your favorite school's athletics director. With a few pecks at the keyboard, you can share your joys or frustrations in mere seconds. Like one Mississippi State fan did after viewing North Dakota State's season highlight video on our site and wanted to know why his school - an SEC school, in case you forgot - couldn't do the same.
@stricklinMSU we are an SEC school. Why can we not get video quality like this? http://t.co/pkpkedOViR
— Josh Waters (@msudawg12) November 18, 2013
Again, what's not to love about Twitter?
We decided to rank our top 10 Twitter follows among FBS athletics directors.
1. Greg Byrne
School: Arizona
Handle: @Greg_Byrne
Followers (approximate): 15,500
Reason: There are multiple. He is No. 1, after all. There was the time he trolled an Arizona State fan, or the time he announced the hiring of Rich Rodriguez over Twitter, or the time he invited two fans to take part in the Arizona football pre-game, or the time he agreed over Twitter to speak to an LSU sports management class via Skype. If that's not enough, he has Ron Swanson as his avatar.
Update: Thirty-six hours after the fact we received further confirmation that Byrne is indeed a deserving No. 1:
The real D Beebe emailed after being named #1 AD on twit. "Good work GB, but the fake @DanBeebe has over 21K followers. U
need 2step it up!"
— Greg Byrne (@Greg_Byrne) November 22, 2013
2. Scott Stricklin
School: Mississippi State
Handle: @StricklinMSU
Followers: 25,000
Reason: Stricklin wrote the book on fan engagement on Twitter.
@CroomDiaries IMO, big board should enhance, not dominate, game experience. We've crossed that line. It'll get fixed
— Scott Stricklin (@stricklinMSU) November 17, 2013
3. Jeff Long
School: Arkansas
Handle: @JeffLongUA
Followers: 41,000
Reason: Hard to imagine an AD with a more eventful 18 months than Long. He survived the Bobby Petrino mess, snuck Bret Bielema out of Wisconsin in a giant wheel of cheese (presumably), joined the College Football Playoff selection committee, and still finds time to be a situational comic.
Wow! These still exist?! My Children don't understand..... #NeverYield pic.twitter.com/Mr2YkYsEvH
— Jeff Long (@jefflongUA) November 10, 2013
4. Bill Byrne
School: Nebraska, Texas A&M (retired)
Handle: @Bill_Byrne
Followers: 7,500
Reason: The older of the two Byrne athletics directors, Greg's father is no longer working. But that only gives him more opportunity to throw out hot sports opinions without worrying about the repercussions.
Watched it happen too many times. When tu needs a call, they get it. Clearly a fumble. Call goes for tu.
— Bill Byrne (@Bill_Byrne) October 4, 2013
We all new BU was overrated & OU had lots of injuries, but this is hard to watch. I wonder what is on the LHN. Probably a volleyball replay
— Bill Byrne (@Bill_Byrne) November 8, 2013
5. Danny White
School: Buffalo
Handle: @UBDannyWhite
Followers: 1,500
Reason: One of the hot young names in the business, it's only a matter of time before the son of Duke AD Kevin White changes his handle to something like @OhioStateDannyWhite.
6. Mark Hollis
School: Michigan State
Handle: @MSUAD
Followers: 21,000
Reason: "Stress relief -- that's the reason I tweet," Hollis said earlier this year. "When you see a bunch of tweets come up from @MSUAD, it's because I'm either stressed about something or I'm extremely bored. I don't use it real well as a means for marketing. I use it more to get things off my chest when they're bothering me. Perhaps somebody in my role shouldn't do it that way, but that's the way I roll. If you know me, that's what I do."
When one of the most creative minds in the business has time to wander, you need to be there.
7. Ross Bjork
School: Ole Miss
Handle: @RossBjorkAD
Followers: 17,500
Reason: Bjork offers plenty of worthwhile content daily across the Ole Miss athletics spectrum - like here - but his feed really gets good whenever his seven-year-old son gets ahold of Dad's iPad:
Ssssrfgggggggggggg. Llllll http://t.co/74E9c9pl9a pic.twitter.com/YDsmGtM3Ph
— Ross Bjork (@RossBjorkAD) July 5, 2013
8. Kirby Hocutt
School: Texas Tech
Handle: @kirbyhocutt
Followers: 10,000
Reason: Hocutt announced the hiring of Kliff Kingsbury over Twitter. We only hope the next time the Red Raiders are ready to introduce a head coach that Hocutt remembers to tell his trusty camera man to turn his cell phone sideways.
Red Raider Nation, your new head football coach is........ #RideTogether http://t.co/hRFrzIBU
— Kirby Hocutt (@kirbyhocutt) December 12, 2012
9. Jay Jacobs
School: Auburn
Handle: @jayjacobsauad
Followers: 9,500
Reason: A former walk-on on the Tigers' offensive line, Jacobs holds two degrees from Auburn and has spent all but one year of his adult life in Auburn. He's as War Eagle as it gets. Which is why we can't tell if he's serious or sarcastic in this tweet, but either way it's just as great.
Because nothing could possibly top Aubie. RT@BradInAtlanta: Why does Auburn not have a live Tiger?? Help me out here @jayjacobsauad
— Jay Jacobs (@jayjacobsauad) November 15, 2013
10. Barry Alvarez
School: Wisconsin
Handle: @BeingAlvarez
Followers: 2,000
Reason: Technically this is a fake account, although if the top Badger did tweet, we all know he'd have fired off something similar after the Arizona State officiating fiasco.
If those refs are allowed to officiate anything more than a thanksgiving morn football game, then there is no justice. Hang up the stripes.
— Barry Alvarez (@BeingAlvarez) September 15, 2013
James Franklin at halftime...
With his team leading Florida 17-3 at halftime at the Swamp, James Franklin had a message for his team.
"It is 0-0; and that is not coach speak...We have got to go out and take this second half..."
His guys went out and outscored the Gators 17-14 in the second half as well.
Another solid video here from Vanderbilt.
Video: Actor Michael Chiklis does his best post-game Bill Belichick impression
After losing to Carolina on a controversial no-call on Sunday night, Bill Belichick got in front of the cameras and talked to reporters like only he can.
The interview got plenty of play on ESPN, and today I came across actor Michael Chiklis (who has starred in the TV show "The Shield", and the movie "The Fantastic Four") impersonating Belichick's now infamous presser as part of a piece on ESPN's SportsNation.
Chiklis nails it too, from the nonchalant emotions, all the way down to the cut-off sweater.
The only actor I can think of that would do a better stone-faced post-game Belichick would be Bruce Willis, and I don't see that video going viral anytime in the near future.
Garrick McGee: "Give us an offseason"
Sometimes a tweet says it all. Heading into Game 23 under Garrick McGee, this is the state of UAB football with a nationally televised game versus Rice on Thursday night:
UAB asking fans to sit on same side of football stadium to make it look good for TV http://t.co/wbyqb2yVng (H/T steveggerken)
— darren rovell (@darrenrovell) November 20, 2013
Sure, the Blazers play in an antiquated cavern of a stadium, but they were talking championships in Birmingham this offseason.
UAB is 5-17 in McGee's nearly two full seasons at the helm, and 2-8 this season. After Rice, UAB closes at home with Southern Miss so a 3-9 finish is likely, but a win on the final day of the season to match last year's 3-9 campaign does jive with the dictionary's definition of "progress."
"Regardless about what anybody says about our program, we're able to go out and getting kids that are preforming, that are able to perform as well as anybody in Conference USA," McGee told AL.com.
UAB ranks 75th or lower nationally in six of the eight major offensive and defensive metrics. The Blazers have one win against FBS competition this year, a 27-24 Oct. 12 win over Florida International, who itself needed a 24-23 victory over Southern Miss the week prior to earn its only win of the season. That doesn't come close to dampening McGee's outlook, though.
"Give us an offseason," McGee said. "We're going to continue to push forward. Our kids will be bigger, faster stronger and we're going to add another recruiting class plus about 17 guys that are injured and not able to play and will help us next year. I think the future is bright for us."

there's some sort of sarcastic humor in that question that not's translating, right?
if not, check the title of the post...
By the way - will Daniel Bard be non-tendered?
oh absolutely, they'll figure out what they think he's worth with the appropriate FA mark-up and go from there. Earlier rumors were 6/60 range, but if the posting fee is lower that may go higher, plus bidding war.
He may also want a 4 year opt out or something like Cespedes got. He's certainly the type of player they should make an effort on, just doesn't mean they should be completely dumb about it either. Finding 1-year wonders and comeback candidates on the pitching market has proven to be quite effective lately for a lot of teams.
"All in" was probably the wrong phrase to use. But out of all the SP out there he's probably a guy where it makes the most sense to overpay for a couple mil per year to get him. If that indeed would get a deal done.
doesn't seem like he's worth going all in on then imo...prefer they trade Samardzija (whom I'm no big fan of) for 3 prospects, with one at least having #2 potential (Skaggs would do).
sub-darvish, better than dice-K....with a ton of workload on his arm for a 25 year old from highschool all the way to the pros.
130+ pitch outings are nothing strange for him. he pitched 160+ in a game and came out the next day to throw 15 in relief...a few months ago.
I think Keith Law described him as more like Kuroda. Which is worth a 6 year 100mil + deal in this market.
I doubt they're going all in on anybody at this point. But if Tanaka is posted, they'll certainly put up the $20M bid and try hard to get them. But there will be plenty of competition and my feeling is that someone will be more willing to overpay at this point. We shall see and hope...
speaking of Tanaka, I know nothing of the guy...is he Darvish good or Dice-K good?
you missed the point of that inclusion...and ignored a lot of what surrounded it.
It would also be monumentally stupid to strip the franchise down and have crap performance for 2 years for a big rebuilding effort and then screw that plan up by spending a ton of money too early. Last year the free agent value was in the 2nd tier players that didn't require crazy long term deals or giving up draft picks. It didn't really work for the Cubs as did for other teams with Jackson's first year performance but that deal could still work out ok. The Cubs front office isn't stupid.
The Victorino deal is looking pretty good too. They nailed it last offseason. They didn't pay for the big money guys, they want for the 2nd/3rd tier guys for modest deals that didn't require giving up draft picks. Gomes and Carp were also nice scrap heap/low cost pickups too.
Go ahead and take a look at how the Red Sox spent their money:
Virtually all of their big free agent signings over the past 5 years have sucked, whereas the one-year contracts to fill gaps before youngsters emerge and players acquired in traded when they need them with little contract/money commitment have been effective.
Terrible Investments:
Bartolo Colon to Mariners rumors starting to float, that would be far wiser than trading for Price.
"they're already pissing away $26m on e.jackson having him pitch 2 punt seasons"
My point that you would complain either way confirmed!
Arencibia to Rangers...
Bellisario got $3M from White Sox, Ryan Webb a 2 year deal from O's. Ithought those 2 could have been potential Cubs bullpen targets, but still of plenty of options out there.
I think most people see that.
...well most sane people
