Preview: Jaguars and Gamecocks
What: South Alabama Jaguars (6-4) at South Carolina Gamecocks (5-5)
Where: Columbia, SC. Williams-Brice Stadium
When: Saturday, kickoff 11AM CST.

Line: South Carolina by 25.5
South Alabama travels to Columbia, SC to take on the Ol' Ball Coach, Steve Spurrier, and his South Carolina Gamecocks. This is the second SEC team the Jaguars have faced this season. They lost their home-opener to Mississippi State 35-3.
But the Jaguars have come a long way since that game and have clinched bowl eligibility. The only thing left is to finish the regular season, hopefully with a bang. What a bang it would be to sneak a win out of Columbia!
But the Jaguars will have to play a near flawless game to do it. Against Texas State they overcame four turnovers, three of them being fumbles on three-consecutive possessions all in their own territory. But the Jaguar defense only allowed 10 points off of those three turnovers. They won't be so lucky against an SEC team.
In their first five wins of the season, the Jags only turned the ball over twice. In their four losses they have turned the ball over 11 times. Bottom line, they have to protect the ball.
In all six of their wins they have rushed for over 150 yards in each of them. They probably won't be able to just start out running the ball against the Gamecocks, so they will have to used their passing game to make the defense play honest and allow some running lanes to open up. USA likes to test defenses deep and if they can complete some of those passes that will go a long way to help open up the running game.
Hunter Vaughn stepped up big time against Texas State. He has prepared this week as if he's going to be the starter because it is unknown if Brandon Bridge will be back 100% from his injury. The decision on who will start at quarterback will probably be announced just prior to kickoff. Teams routinely utilize graduate assistants to pour through social media and websites to glean any tidbit of information that may help their team.
Each team has had ups and downs. South Carolina was picked as one of the top SEC teams and to compete for the SEC East crown, but right now getting bowl eligible for their 10th consecutive season is their goal. Coach Spurrier keeps getting asked about his future at South Carolina, they wonder if he will even be there in 2015. These questions and their upcoming game next weekend against rival Clemson could have the team looking beyond this fledgeling football team from the Sun Belt coming into Williams-Brice Stadium.
That could work in the Jaguars favor.
If they could get some early success, score points, convert third-downs and rest the defense, they could make it a long day for South Carolina. And with a little luck the Jaguars could come out with a win.
But rest assured those boys from the South will be playing their hearts out in Columbia.
Go Jags!
USA v Navy has Kickoff Time
South Alabama announced the kickoff time for their regular-season finale against Navy at Ladd-Peebles Stadium. The Friday, November 28th game, the day after Thanksgiving, will begin at 2pm CST.
The Game will be broadcast on ESPN3 as well as over the radio via Lite Mix 99.9FM and the iHeartRadio app.
Navy is 5-5 after a convincing win over Georgia Southern last weekend. The midshipmen have the week off before traveling to Mobile to face the Jaguars. They will then play their annual regular-season finale against Army on December 6.
Colby Sawyer Named Honorary SBC Player of the Week; Monday Press Conference – USC Edition
The Sun Belt Conference named 11-year-old Colby Sawyer the Honorary Sun Belt Football Player of the Week on Monday. Sawyer, an inspiration to the Jaguar football team, signed his National Letter of Intent with the program a week ago and joined head coach Joey Jones for his weekly press conference, made his first appearance with the team on Saturday against Texas State.
Sawyer signed with the Jags as part of Team Impact which helps match kids with chronic or life-threatening illnesses to teams. He was diagnosed in June of 2012 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and had over a year of chemotherapy treatments as a patient at USA Children's and Women's Hospital.
After signing with the Jags he received his own locker, jersey and other USA team items. He was with the team during their bus trip to the stadium, through pregame warm-ups, and when Coach Jones was addressing the team. He was also led the team out onto the field. And he was also on the sidelines when the Jaguars rallied from 10 points down and held on in the final seconds to defeat Texas State to earn bowl eligibility and most likely their first bowl invitation.
Derek Westbrook, who is a member of the student athlete advisory committee (SAAC), had a part in helping to make this possible. The senior attended the Sun Belt's SAAC conference this past summer in New Orleans as a representative from South Alabama. He was also recognized during halftime recently as being a member of the South Alabama Cross Country team who won the SBC Title this season.
"Colby has impressed all of us throughout the Sun Belt with his spirit for the Jags and his inspiration to the team," Sun Belt Commissioner Karl Benson said. "Colby is unquestionably deserving of this award and all of the recognition that he has received."
Team IMPACT's mission is to match kids facing life-threatening and chronic illnesses with teams throughout the United States. So far they have placed 560 kids with 280 schools in 37 states, one of their latest being Sawyer.
Press Conference
Jags Basketball Face Golden Eagles Tonight in Hattiesburg
After defeating Carroll to being the season, the Jaguars travel to Southern Miss as they try to go 2-0 on the season.
The Jags used a late run to defeat Carroll 85-64 as the Golden Eagles used a strong second half to defeat William Carey 86-63.
Southern Miss has a new coach this season. Doc Sadler has a career record of 150-107 in his ninth season as a head coach. USM is ranked #138 in the Sagarin ratings while the Jaguars are ranked #280.
The Jags only shot 45.3% against Carroll on Friday night however the Jags won the rebounding battle 38-27 with 19 offensive rebounds. Freshman Abdul Lewis led the Jags in rebounding with 10 in his first career game. All 10 game in the first hald in 11 minutes of play. Augustine Rubit was the last Jaguar to pull down double-digit rebounds in his first-ever game in 2010.
Junior John Brown led all players with 22 points, 14 of them came in the second half where he made all four 3-point attempts. He also went 6-of-6 from the foul line.
The Jags look to improve on their 10-36 all-time record in road openers where they have lost 18 of their last 20. They broke an 11-game string in 2012-2013 when they defeated then #24 ranked Florida State 76-71 in Tallahassee.

Jaguar Soccer Fell to #2 Florida State 5-0 on Friday in first round of NCAA Tournament Play
The University of South Alabama soccer team fell to #2 Florida State Seminoles in Tallahassee in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Friday, 5-0.
The Jags started off strong by holding the Seminoles scoreless through the first 44 minutes of the match, but a goal with 0:38 remaining in the opening half gave them momentum which they seized and never looked back.
FSU got goals from five different players while goalkeeper Cassie Miller was forced into making only one save as the Seminoles outshot the Jaguars 23-2 and also came out on top in the corner count 11-0.
FSU's first goal came on a header after an in-swinger from the byline just before halftime. Then in the second half the floodgates opened as they found the back of the net four more times. The first coming seven minutes into the half on a header. Eleven minutes later they added another.
The next goal game in the 73rd minute on another header with the final goal coming six minutes later.
"First of all, I want to congratulate Florida State," said South Alabama head coach Graham Winkworth. "I think they're one of the, if not the most well-coached and organized teams in the country, with potentially the most talent in the country as well. So congratulations to Coach (Mark) Krikorian and all the girls and staff, because they are a phenomenal squad. But I could not be more proud of my team. I know the scoreboard is the same as last year, we were kind of hoping the NCAA might send us in a different direction this year, but we were back here. I know the scoreboard says the same thing as last year, but I think the game was a little different and I think at halftime Coach (Krikorian) would admit that he was in a game, and it was a game. For 44 ½ minutes, we held them, maybe the best team in the country, so I could not be more proud of the team."
Jags Earn Bowl Eligibility, Inside Track to Bowl Game with 24-20 Win over Texas State in final seconds
The University of South Alabama football team overcame injuries, turnovers, allowing 10 points in the first quarter, and a last minute drive by Texas State to hold on for a 24-20 win to close out Sun Belt play.
The game could not have started worse for the Jaguar offense. Three-consecutive fumbles in their own territory yielded 10 points for the Bobcats in the first quarter.
"We had three turnovers in the first quarter, and that wasn't good, but we were only down 10 points," head coach Joey Jones explained. "I felt pretty fortunate to be in that situation. The defense came out and fought as they always do."
The first turnover occurred at the Jaguar 44 and the bobcats took advantage by converting on 3rd and 12 with a 16 yard completion to keep the drive alive after which they would eventually punch it in for the first points of the game.
On the next Jaguar drive Jerrid Jeter-Gilmon forced a fumble by Xavier Johnson, who was also injured on the play and missed the remainder of the game. The bobcats started at the Jaguar 33, but the defense was not allowing another touchdown. Instead the bobcats were forced to kick a 41-yard field goal to take a 10-0 lead late in the first quarter.
The ensuing kickoff was being returned by T.J. Glover when the ball was popped into the air and caught by a Texas State defender at the Jaguar 28-yard line. But again the defense was not going to allow a touchdown. On third and one, Theo Rich stopped the running back for a two yard loss. Then the 38-yard field goal attempt would miss wide left.
The Jaguars would get on the board with about 10 minutes left in the half on and eight play, 56-yard drive for a touchdown. Terrance Timmons gained 29 yards on the drive and moved the chains twice. Vaughn kept the drive alive on fourth-and-three when he found Jereme Jones open for a seven-yard completion. Vaughn would toss a lateral to Jake Howton who would throw it back across the field to Vaughn who would then go 28-yards untouched for the Jaguars first touchdown of the game making it 10-7.
Texas State would regain a 10-point advantage with just over four minutes left in the opening half when tight end Lawrence White was left open running a seam route for a 46-yard touchdown.
The Jags would add a field goal with 1:16 left in the half after Kendall Houston found an opening and ran 31 yards. Aleem Sunanon hit a career-long 46-yard field goal to cut the bobcat lead to 17-10 which would also be the score at halftime.
South Alabama came out in the second half with a renewed energy and determination and held Texas State to just 115 yards and three points.
"Our offensive and defensive staffs did a great job of making adjustments in the second half," Jones said. "Our kids never gave up, and never had a look in their eyes that they were done. I felt good about it the whole time. I was a little nervous on that last play, but they came up with the play and made it to win the ballgame. It's a great win for this university."
USA opened the second half with the ball and only needed four minutes to tie the game. Vaughn kept the drive alive with a 14-yard pass to Bowman on third-and-13. He could come back to Bowman again to gain 45 yards to the Bobcat 9 yard line. Two plays later Vaughn connected with Danny Woodson II in the back corner of the end zone for his first career touchdown pass.
The Jaguars would finally take the lead with just over 12 minutes left in regulation. Terrance Timmons would cap off a 10-play 63 yard drive that took four-and-a-half minutes. The possession began with Timmons breaking off an 11 yard run. Vaughn converted third-and-2 when a 10-yard completion to Bowman on the last play of the third quarter. Kendall Houston set up Timmons for the touchdown after carrying the ball four consecutive times, including a 15 yarder on his first touch.
USA's defense forced a three-and-out after Maleki Harris stopped Terrence Franks for no gain on a third-and-one. But the on the Jaguars possession, was they were moving the ball, Vaughn's pass was intercepted along the left sideline and returned to the Jaguars 25 yard line. A nine-yard completion on first down led to a third-and-one at the Jaguar 16, but Maleki Harris blitz up the middle with perfect timing with the snap count to blow up the play and drop Robert Lowe for a four-yard loss. Texas State settled for a field goal to cut the Jaguar lead to 24-20 with over four minutes remaining.
The Texas State defense stiffened and the Jags could not muster a first down and gave the ball back to the Bobcats with two-and-a-half minutes remaining.
A 21-yard completion from quarterback Jones to Brandon Smith on fourth-and-seven kept the drive alive, as did a pass interference call on a third-and-18 at the Jaguar 39 yard line. They could continue to move the ball until they reached the Jaguar 4 yard line with five seconds left on the clock after spiking the ball. The final pass of the game fell incomplete as the Jaguar team broke into celebration.
Hunter Vaughn, the third string quarterback coming into this week, got his first start when Brandon Bridge was not ready to return to the field. Vaughn was an efficient 20-of-28 for 182 yards, a touchdown and an interception. He spread the ball around to seven different receivers with Jereme Jones leading the team with five receptions for 37 yards. Braedon Bowman caught four for 81 yards, Danny Woodson also caught four for 30 yards and a touchdown. Shavarez Smith caught three for 21 yards.
Terrance Timmons led the team on the ground with 74 yards on 11 carries. Houston added 68 yards on 10 carries as the Jaguars rushed for 174 yards as a team with an average of five yards per attempt.
Terrell Brigham had a career-high 12 stops to lead USA. Harris added nine with Jesse Kelley and Davin Hawkins both adding eight each. Kelley had 2.5 tackles for loss and two sacks.
The Jaguar defense held the Texas State running game to only 106 yards, they came into the game averaging 227 yards rushing per game.
"First of all, my hat's off to Texas State — what a game," Jaguar head coach Joey Jones said. "Last year it came down to the last play of the game, and it did again this year. They have a great program. [Head] Coach [Dennis] Franchione does one heck of a job with that team, we knew it was going to be a tough one. We went all week long knowing that this was do-or-die for us to get into a bowl game.
"I just want to commend our players and my staff who have done so much in preparation to get to this point. They believed all week long, and they believed the entire game. We got behind and had a few early turnovers, but they didn't panic. I thought we played a wonderful ballgame. Hunter Vaughn came in at quarterback and did a heck of a job even though he really hasn't practice all year long. My hat's off to him as well as the rest of the players on this football team, they did a tremendous thing today. We obviously have a chance to get into a bowl now with six wins, and we're going to be a good one for somebody. We're excited about it. It could be the first bowl game in South Alabama history."
"We live in a one-play world, don't we with our football team? We came up a play or two short tonight," TSU head coach Dennis Franchione stated. "South Alabama did a nice job. I thought their quarterback did a better job in the second half and that was big for them. We still were able to get down there [in scoring position] and have a chance to win the game, we just didn't quite get it done."
South Alabama improves to 6-4 overall and 5-3 in Sun Belt play. Texas State falls to 5-5 overall and 3-3 in conference play.
The Jaguars travel to Columbia, SC to face South Carolina on Saturday for an 11AM CST kickoff.
Preview: South Alabama vs Texas State – Claws Out
South Alabama enters Saturday night's game against Texas State backed into a corner. And when you back a wounded animal into a corner, they become very dangerous.
The Jags know they need this game most of all, it will put them at six wins on the season and get them bowl eligible for the second consecutive season. But it could very well be for an actual bowl slot. You might as well call this a 'winner take bowl' game.
Beginning this season, the Sun Belt Conference has automatic ties with three bowl games up from the two bowl tie-in's they had in previous seasons. The addition of the Camellia Bowl in Montgomery is to thank for that. Georgia Southern is one win away from an undefeated SBC record, but they are ineligible to go to a bowl game barring there not being enough bowl eligible teams to fill all the bowl slots. I have not gone back through all of the caveats to that rule change, but if memory serves me right, they would be among the top choices to fill a slot.
Louisiana-Lafayette, also currently undefeated in conference play, could still get a share of SBC title if they win out. But it's pretty much a lock that, if they keep playing at the level that they have the past couple of weeks, Lafayette and Arkansas State are going to be the top two teams filling the New Orleans and GoDaddy bowl slots. Which leaves South Alabama and Texas State fighting for that last slot.
This is the Jaguars final conference game while Texas State still has two more after the Jaguars. The Bobcats will face a red hot Arkansas State team, where they will be underdogs, and then wrap up the season against Georgia State where they will be favored (has GaSt been favored in any game this year??). If the bobcats only win at Georgia State (which they should) then USA and TXST will have the same record, but (not so fast) USA will hold the tiebreaker due to winning the head-to-head match-up.
Over recent weeks the Jaguars have been been beat up. Last week they had eight starters out against Arkansas State and it showed. They have lost Jay Jones and most recently Marvin Shinn to season ending injuries.
The big question is: "Have they been able to mend their wounds enough to win this week?" and "Have the reserves stepped up their game to fill those empty cleats?"
So after all that, what does South Alabama need to do to win?
Jaguar Soccer Travels to FSU for the First Round of the NCAA Tournament
The South Alabama soccer team makes their second-consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament with a familiar opponent waiting for them. The #1 seeded Florida State Seminoles.
South Alabama (19-2-1) will meet the Seminoles (18-1-1) in Tallahassee in a rematch of last year's NCAA Tournament appearance where FSU won 5-0. But the Jaguars look avenge that loss.
The two schools have a history that dates back to 1996 where they have met on the pitch in Tallahassee four out of six times, with the 'Noles holding a dominant 6-0 record.
Both teams enter the match with impressive unbeaten streaks. The Jags enter with an 18 match unbeaten streak dating back to an August 31 loss to Kennesaw State while the Seminoles are undefeated in their last 15 matches dating back to a 2-1 loss to #5 Florida on September 5.
FSU has some impressive wins under their belt this season. They defeated #10 Notre Dame 3-1 and #4 Virginia 1-0 to claim the ACC title as they went 9-0-1 in conferece play as they try to win their first National Championship.
Seven Seminoles earned All-ACC honors including offensive player of the year.
South Alabama earned the SBC's automatic berth by winning the conference tournament with most outstanding player Charde Hannah. They outscored their three opponents in the tournament 6-1 with freshmen Hannah and Rio Hardy accounting for all the goals en route to joining three teammates on the All-Tournament team.
"We're absolutely buzzing," Jaguar head coach Graham Winkworth said. "I'm not sure many people believed when my staff and I arrived that we could go from 217 (in the RPI) in the nation to a team that's being considered for at-large bids now. It's a huge accomplishment for the girls and I'm really excited.
"One of the things that gets me most excited is that we've done it with two different squads. We inherited a good bunch of girls that just needed to be shown a few things and they worked extremely hard to get to the NCAA Tournament. In the meantime we had to recruit a new team as well, with a few of the older girls remaining. We managed to repeat and take another step forward. It's a great feeling and we're excited to have another crack at one of the best, if not the best, team in the nation."
"It's more of an experience thing. Last year we went in there starry-eyed," Winkworth said about the difference between last year and this year. "We need to show respect to our opponents, but at the same time, we need to play without fear. We need to understand that we're here because we've earned it. We deserve to be here and I'm really proud of the girls. What an opportunity to play one of the best teams in the country."
"They're very similar to last year," Winkworth noted. "They've returned most of those players from last year. They lost a couple of key ones, but they've been replaced with excellent players. To be honest, they have so many talented players, they can only play 11 at one time, so it's OK for them to have 16 or 17 top stars. We understand they have a lot of threats, not only in open play, but also from set pieces too. We have to do our very best to prepare for those as well as we can."
"We've gone quite a few games without a defeat now and that's going to breed confidence through the team," Winkworth said. "During that period we've played some very good opponents, including a much-improved Sun Belt Conference. The conference ranking nationally is much higher than this time last year. For us to beat teams of that caliber before the NCAA Tournament is a big momentum builder for us, as well as a confidence boost. We've done it with such a young team as well; the future of this program is very bright."
South Alabama and Florida State get underway at 6pm CST at the Seminole Soccer Complex.
Jags Announce Baseball Schedule, Will Host Alabama, Auburn, Miss. State
The University of South Alabama baseball program released their 2015 schedule which includes nine NCAA Regional and two Super Regional participants from last season.
A whopping 16 of the first 17 games of the season will be played at Eddie Stanky Field which begins with a three-game season-opening series against New Orleans February 13-15. On February 17 the Jaguars will host Auburn. They will then host Maryland, a 2014 Super Regional participant, and Arkansas who advanced to the championship game of the NCAA Charlottesville Regional last year as well as Central Florida for a weekend tournament February 20-22.
Their only road game in February will be on February 24 when they travel to Montgomery to play Alabama State in a midweek game. USA returns home to host Brown (February 27-March 1) in four games over three days. Then they host Southerm Miss on March 3 before hosing Arkansas-Little Rock on March 6-8 to open their Sun Belt conference schedule.
Other games of note throughout the season are Southeastern Louisiana on March 10 and Alabama State March 17 in Mobile. The Jags will also host Lafayette runner-up Mississippi State on March 31 and Jackson State on April 1.
The full schedule can be found here.
"You obviously want to try to put together the best schedule you can," South Alabama head baseball coach Mark Calvi said. "It used to be that 40 wins was the benchmark to get into the Regionals, but now there are teams with 40 or more wins that get left out because their RPI is lower than a team with fewer wins. We definitely don't want to be left out. It's RPI-driven first and foremost. We have our sights set on winning the league every year, and we want our guys ready for the competition they will play in the postseason so they will have seen that caliber of a team consistently throughout the year. It's a tough schedule, but we feel good with it. There's not a lot of wiggle room, but it creates excitement within our program and with the fans. It's a great home slate; we're excited about it."
"I think the conference is very strong," Calvi said about the Sun Belt. "We played Georgia Southern back when I was at South Carolina. They are a pretty consistent Regional team, and they were in a tough league in the Southern Conference. They are a very good team, and they have an experienced coaching staff. They definitely add some strength to the league. Those (GSU and Appalachain State) are two very competitive programs. I like the league. We want to make this a three or four-team league in regard to the postseason. I think it is as competitive as ever, but we'll see."
The 2015 Sun Belt Conference Championship will be held May 20-24 in Troy, Alabama.
Jags and Gamecocks to Play in Regionally Televised Game on November 22
It was announced on Monday that South Alabama's game against South Carolina will be regionally televised.
The Jaguars will face the Gamecocks on Saturday, November 22 with an 11am CST kickoff. The game will be broadcast live on FOX Sports South.
USC will be the second Southeastern Conference opponent on the Jaguars' schedule this season. They were defeated by current #1 Mississippi State in the home opener at Ladd-Peebles Stadium.
This will be the Jaguars first non-conference game after playing eight-consecutive conference games since September.

If you believe homosexuality is a choice...
I do not believe it's a choice. I believe you are born that way.
Single Mom
"We saved the world. I say we party."
Oh and if you believe you choose who you are attracted to, at what point did you choose to be attracted to the opposite sex?
"Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. You may reapply if circumstances change."
I believe you are born with your sexuality.
A friend of mine is not religious but believes it's a choice. I asked HOW he could believe that. He said there is no scientific basis or any proven fact that it's a gene, etc.
That's it. I could get nothing else out of him.
Not based on religion. Why would you think that?
It's not hard to believe that people use religion as an argument to say homosexuality is a choice. If you believe that the Bible says homosexuality is a sin and abomination, why would you believe that God made them that way? You would believe that it is man's sins and that with God he can change.
Being gay is not illegal.
Don't like it? Don't hang out with gay people.
"I'm building bonfires of my vanities and doubts, to get warm, just like everybody else."
--Frank Turner
I agree with Ashley. Many religious people believe it's a sin. Sins are things you choose to do, then repent for them and try not to do them anymore. So if being gay falls under "sin" category, it would stand to reason that many think it's something they can just ask for forgiveness and not practice.
But it would be like me having to ask God for forgiveness everyday for having blue eyes and liking men...
ETA: "if being"
He said there is no scientific basis or any proven fact that it's a gene, etc.
^^Did you point out that there is also no gene for height?
I will totally do your taxes (that was sexual) -some dude on OKC

San Jose, Califo...
I made it from a self drafted skirt pattern I made a while back. The skirt pattern was just a basic pencil skirt, and I added vertical insert to the sides to add more interest. In my head, the horizontal part of the skirt was supposed to be narrower, creating a skinnier illusion. But the fit was so nice that I decided not to mess with it.
Mar 22, 2013, 04.14 PMby dgprado
Lovely!! It really fits you!

I think the skirt looks great like this!
Mar 21, 2013, 07.01 AMby avjames
It looks good, even if it's not exactly the way you want and the stripes are mached perfectly. I am always in awe when people are good at matching stripes.

Highlight Congress manifesto, partymen told
The Congress leaders launched a scathing attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party here on Friday and said the wind of political change was sweeping across the State in favour of the Congress.
At a political rally held here, Congress leader Siddaramaiah said the people of the State want a positive change as they were fed up with the misrule of the BJP. "Good and able leadership coupled with transparency in administration that was pro-poor, pro-Dalit, pro-minorities and pro-farmers was what the people need," he said.
Regarding attacks on churches, Mr. Siddaramaiah said there was no protection for minorities in the State under the BJP regime. Referring to the five-year BJP regime, Mr. Siddaramaiah said it had looted the State, forgotten its promises made to farmers and failed to handle drought effectively.
He said there was no employment generation in the State and the funds released by the Centre were not effectively utilised.
Taking a swipe at the Janata Dal (Secular), he said, "it was a father and son party which could not win more than 25 seats in all and yet H.D. Kumaraswamy was day dreaming of becoming the next Chief Minister."

M3 sedan would have more room. Good all around car.Coupe, just about the same room as a Mustang. But it will be older. (in your case) Just remember, even though your paying $40grand for it. Your still maintaining a $70,000 car. Oil change even if DIY oil and filter will cost you atleast $100. Parts and labor will be more expensive. It will be out of warranty soon. It will need repair that you need t pay for soon. If you plan on modding the car, It will cost you more.
Mustang, would probably be more fun on the street since your not tracking it. Would cost less to own. Brand new, that means its under warranty longer. Big downside is that everyone in their civic and camaro will probably rev and and want to race you. (might be a good thing depending on your preference.)
If your asking me, I prefer the M3, I bought the M3 because we needed a car for the family and I refuse to buy a boring car. Mine is a 08 sedan. So far no major issue I have 37,000 miles on it. I did not mod the car. Im keeping mine stock. It is the family vehicle. The wife drives it, I drive the suburban. I have 2 fun car on the side.
In the end I recommend you drive both. Buy the car for yourself and not because you care what the other driver or what the people walking on the sidewalk thinks.
BTW most test, shows both car being equal in performance. 1/4 mile times. Track times. But the good ol ass test will say mustang is faster on straight, m3 on the turns.

I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living or get busy dying.
The Shawshank Redemption celebrated its 20th anniversary this year, and to mark the occasion stars Tim Robbins, Morgan Freeman and director Frank Darabont reunited for a special Academy screening of the film this week.
Digital Spy goes then and now with the cast of the beloved drama to find out what happened to them in the years since Shawshank's original release.
Tim Robbins (Andy Dufresne)
Already a well-established and respected actor by the time he won the role of Andy Dufresne, Tim Robbins saw his career surge in the wake of Shawshank. He bagged the role after Kevin Costner, Tom Hanks and Brad Pitt turned it down, but their loss was his gain.
Post-Shawshank he starred in films ranging from Mission to Mars, to High Fidelity and Green Lantern. His biggest career success »

Japanese actress Tao Okamoto ("The Wolverine") plays DC Comics' character character 'Mercedes "Mercy" Graves' in director Zack Snyder's "Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice":
Mercy Graves originally appeared in "Superman: The Animated Series" (1996) as the bodyguard/personal assistant of Superman's archenemy, 'Lex Luthor'.
Originally the leader of a gang of female thieves, Luthor was impressed by her mixture of ruthlessness and street savvy.
He offered her a job, taking her in, cleaning her up and entrusting her with personal security and dirty work.
A proficient martial artist, Mercy uses a rough, street-form of kickboxing as her preferred form of attack.
She is also an expert with most forms of handheld weapons.
Her preferred dress is a chauffeur's uniform with short skirt, chauffeur's cap, nylons and high heeled boots.

Opening Batman: The Complete Series, I said, "This is my childhood in a box." When the ABC series debuted in January 1966, I was seven, the exact perfect age to be utterly captivated by seeing a comic book faithfully adapted to the small screen. Without fail, I was glued to the television set on Wednesday and Thursday evenings right until the final episode aired in March 1968, leaving indelible images in my mind. These were reinforced just a few years later when local syndicated reruns burned the stories, sounds, and characters deeper into my psyche.
I was too young to understand the context of the show and its impact on popular culture, DC Comics, or the world of licensing. I didn't get the wry jokes, it's knowing pop camp approach to storytelling, or how it cleverly worked on multiple levels (a rare occurrence on prime time back then). Instead, »

DC comic book fans have plenty to be excited about, as Warner Bros. recently unveiled plans for their very own cinematic universe, which could even rival the phenomenal success of Marvel if handled right. Everyone knows that the internet is full of trolls though, so many are already deriding the future of the company's silver screen ventures on the basis of just one release to date. Whether you love or hate Zack Snyder's Man of Steel is ultimately irrelevant though. Even Madame Xanadu would struggle to predict the quality of the upcoming releases before they've been made, so fans will just have to wait patiently and pass judgement when the time comes.
In the meantime, while audiences have been griping about how long it took DC to throw their hat into the ring, fans in the know have been enjoying the incredible animation released as part of »

A quick review of tonight's "The Flash" coming up just as soon as blogging about supernatural events doesn't really pay well... For the most part, "Plastique" continued to demonstrate all the things "The Flash" has learned to do well in such a short span of time. We got cool demonstrations of super-speed, with Barry running up walls and across water for the first time. We got a welcome twist on the Freak of the Week format by having Plastique turn out to be a good guy who couldn't control her powers. (Though how it hadn't occurred to her to wear gloves until Caitlin suggested it didn't speak well of her brains.) Clancy Brown was impeccable casting as General Eiling, a longtime DC Comics heavy(*) who should have uses on both this show and "Arrow" if need be, and the initial teases of Gorilla Grodd have me excited, even if we »

Christian Bale, most would say, made an incredible Batman. Long-time fans of the character also champion Kevin Conroy, who voiced the Caped Crusader through numerous animated incarnations. Michael Keaton's turn is deeply underrated, that kid on Gotham is doing yeoman's work, and though I have my fears about Batman v Superman, I think Ben Affleck is going to rock the doors off the thing. They're all great performers, they all do justice to the character… and yet whenever I see them, some small part of my brain whispers a simple reminder: none of them are Adam West. Without him, none of them would have had their shot at the cape and cowl, and for all the derision foisted on his campy take on the Dark Knight, his version has endured for almost half a century. We've waited decades to see his Batman anywhere outside of a bootleg DVD; this week, »

From Jack Nicholson to Heath Ledger to... Jared Leto? According to The Wrap, Warner Bros is in negotiations to have Leto join the cast of their forthcoming "Suicide Squad" movie, to be written and directed by "Fury" filmmaker David Ayer, as the iconic Batman villain The Joker. Why so serious Jordan Catalano?
The film concerns a group of super-villains who the government grants amnesty by sending them on a top-secret mission that will likely get them all killed. The studio is also after Will Smith, Margot Robbie and Tom Hardy (reprising his Bane role? Or a new role? How many comic book bad guys can he essay?), according to the same Wrap report. It's thought that Jesse Eisenberg will be reprising his role as Lex Luthor (from the forthcoming "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice") in some capacity in the film.
Warner Bros. had initially wanted Ryan Gosling for the role, »

Justice League #1-6
Written by Geoff Johns
Pencils by Jim Lee; Inks by Scott Williams; Colors by Alex Sinclair
Published by DC Comics
Created as the flagship title of the New 52 and the opening arc for this new era of comics, Justice League "Origin" is a cringe-worthy retelling of the League's beginnings. Despite having the talented Geoff Johns handling story and drawn by Jim Lee, Justice League "Origin" is a boring and underwhelming tale.
The story follows the expected Leaguers: Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Aquaman, and new regular Cyborg as they join together to form the Justice League. Unfortunately, all of these heroes present have been reduced to early to mid-twenty somethings in an effort to make them younger and more relatable. But this only serves to make the world's greatest heroes a bunch of bickering idiots. Superman is a short-sighted brute, Batman talks down to everyone, »

For anyone who has seen more than one Marvel movie but would shrug perplexedly at the mention of Jack Kirby or Steve Ditko, "Marvel, 75 Years: From Pulp To Pop!" — an ABC special, giving "Agents of Shield" the week off — should probably be required viewing. Fun, fast-paced and encompassing many of the company's highlights along with a few lowlights, it's a solid primer on Marvel's history, while weaving in inevitable self-promotion and synergistic plugs. Frankly, an hour doesn't do the topic justice, but it's still a timely recognition of the outfit that started out 75 years ago as, yes, Timely Comics.

When Warner Bros. announced in April that Broadway star Ray Fisher will make his feature film debut as Victor Stone, a.k.a. Cyborg in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, it was believed to be a smaller role that would expand in Justice League. Little did we know that Warner Bros. planned on making this 27-year-old actor a major part of their DC Comics movie universe, after last week's announcement that he will have his own Cyborg movie in 2020. During a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, the actor also confirmed that he will star in both Justice League Part 1 and Justice League Part 2, along with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and his stand-alone Cyborg movie.
The actor revealed that he was just as surprised as the fans, since he was told only a few hours before last week's huge announcement that he will be getting his own Cyborg movie. »

The ferocious alien furballs of 1986's Critters and its three sequels look to pay Earth another visit in an upcoming series from Warner Bros.'

Blue Ribbon Content is wasting no time herding shows towards production. Today, the recently launched label announced three series orders—Justice League: Gods and Monsters Chronicles, an Untitled Mortal Kombat Series, and Play It Again, Dick—as well as a slew of in-development programs, including a live action Critters series:

Ray Fisher will be making his DC cinematic debut in the Man of Steel follow up, Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice. Although he will only play a minor role in Zack Snyder's sequel, Fisher's character Cyborg/ Victor Stone will then be receiving a spin off movie in 2020. EW spoke to the actor recently in the wake up Warner Brothers and DCs upcoming film slate announcement. 'I didn't know the extent to which DC and WB had planned on taking my character," he recalls, 'When I signed on, I just wanted to be part of this world. But that specific in formation, I found out then and there. I didn't think I'd be getting my own stand alone film.' Funnily enough, the actor only found out from producers he was getting his own solo movie a few hours before the line up was publicly released. In typical fashion, »

Ray Fisher – who is set to portray Victor Stone, a.k.a. Cyborg in the DC movie universe – was just as surprised as fans when it was announced there would be a Cyborg standalone film in 2020. The actor found out at the same time the fans when Warner Bros. and DC announced their film line up last week.
Fisher told Entertainment Weekly: "I didn't know the extent to which DC and WB had planned on taking my character, when I signed on, I just wanted to be part of this world. But that specific information, I found out then and there. I didn't think I'd be getting my own stand-alone film."
Newcomer Fisher will first be seen in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and will likely appear in both Justice League movies before taking the lead of his own movie in 2020.

If you're anything like me, you can't wait to feast your eyes on the newly-announced Lego Batman movie, which will spin off this year's incredibly successful The Lego Movie. While that particular project may not assemble its way to theaters until 2017, DC Comics and Cartoon Network are making the wait more bearable and airing a Lego DC Comics special later this month.
Titled Lego DC Comics: Batman Be-Leaguered, the project isn't nearly as polished as what we saw from The Lego Movie and is more akin to some of the straight-to-dvd films that spun-off of the Lego Batman games, but it still looks like a fun DC special made more enjoyable by its Lego makeover.
Batman Be-Leagured will tie into the upcoming Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham videogame and will air on Cartoon Network on October 7th, 2014 at 6:00 Pm. It was written by Jim Krieg »

AOL Buys Third Screen Media Ad Network
Seemingly in parallel with the land grab going on online, mobile M&A is heating up. Earlier this month, Microsoft acquired EU ad firm ScreenTonic and prior to that voice services and directory provider Tellme. Today, mobile ad network Third Screen Media went to AOL and will become a subsidiary of Advertising.com. Microsoft had been seen as a Third Screen suitor earlier in the year.
Third Screen is a strategic acquisition for AOL, as mobile becomes a more important category and advertising becomes the source of more and more revenue for AOL.

WASHINGTON – Landmark immigration legislation is doomed to fail in Congress unless border-security provisions are greatly strengthened, Republican senators bluntly warned Tuesday.
If in fact the American people can't trust that the border is controlled, you're never going to be able to pass this bill, declared Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, top Republican on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
His admonishment, joined by those of other GOP lawmakers, came as both Democratic and Republican senators filed a flurry of amendments ahead of the first votes Thursday in a separate committee on the bill to deal with an estimated 11 million immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally and the millions more who might be expected to try to enter in the future.
Border security was the major sticking point Tuesday.
If we're going to get immigration reform through, if you're going to get it through the House, we're going to have to do a whole lot more on what is the definition of a controlled border than what is in this bill, said Coburn.
Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Ron Johnson, R-Wis., voiced similar concerns at a hearing to examine border security provisions of the bill. One of the legislation's authors, Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., has already acknowledged that the bill will face a tough road to passage if those elements are not made stronger, and in a statement Tuesday he welcomed possible changes.
In order for this bill to become law, it will have to be improved to bolster border security and enforcement even further and to limit the federal government's discretionary power in applying the law, Rubio said.
Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., an author of the legislation, defended the border security provisions and said that for some Republicans, border security is just their excuse to oppose immigration overhaul legislation.
Durbin said that border security is stronger than ever, but nonetheless we went the extra step in this bill, and they're saying it's still not enough. You kind of reach a point where you have to question their commitment to immigration reform.
The bill would allocate $5.5 billion for border measures aimed at achieving 100 percent surveillance and blocking 90 percent of illegal border crossers and would-be crossers in high-entrance areas.
The Homeland Security Department would have six months to create a new border-security plan to achieve the 90 percent effectiveness rate. Also within six months, the department would have to create a plan to identify where new fencing is needed. Once that happened, people who were in the U.S. illegally could begin to apply for a provisional legal status.

The last thing you want is to be considered a fool the next time you go gold-panning. So to avoid that terrible fate, read this lesson and learn what the common mineral pyrite looks like.
We also recommend watching The Fool in King Lear: Quotes, Analysis & Quiz and Election of 1848 and the California Gold Rush
Fool's Gold is an expression used to describe the mineral pyrite (sometimes called iron pyrite). The name is derived from the old mining days, when (apparently) many novice gold prospectors mistook tiny pieces of the mineral for gold in their pans. Strangely enough, the mineral really looks nothing like gold. And I suppose that's why they were considered fools.
Pyrite is a metallic mineral that is composed of iron and sulfur atoms bound together in a ratio of 1:2 (FeS2), and it is arguably the most abundant sulfide mineral on Earth. The name comes from a Greek word for fire in reference to the tendency of the mineral to spark when struck against steel (in fact, it was used for that purpose in early flintlock rifles).
The mineral is found in many sedimentary rocks, such as limestone, shale and coal, as well as in metamorphic rocks like schist. It is a very common mineral in ore deposits, where it is found along with other metal-containing minerals. And yet it is not mined for its iron (the metal is difficult to extract). In some rocks, usually shale, pyrite replaces shell material to form what are known as pyritized fossils.
Pyrite rates a hardness of H=5.5 on Moh's hardness scale, the scale used by geologists to describe a mineral's resistance to being scratched. (For comparison, quartz is H=6, diamond is H=10 and gold is H=2.5). It has a brassy yellow color, but it does not look as bright yellow as gold. If the mineral is ground into powder - a physical property known as the streak- the color appears greenish-black (powdered gold is still yellow in case you're wondering).
Pyrite crystallizes from iron and sulfur-bearing water solutions, sometimes heated, in which there is very little free oxygen (that's known as a reducing environment in chemistry). Bacteria may also be involved in some pyrite deposits, particularly in shale.
When the mineral forms crystals they can assume the geometric shapes of a cube (with six square faces), octahedron (eight triangular faces) or pyritohedron (twelve pentagonal faces), or even combinations of those shapes. It also can be massive, lacking any visible crystal forms, and occur as irregular grains spread out through a rock.
Whether in crystal or massive form, pyrite has a metallic luster. However, because the mineral does react chemically in air, it often has a dull or tarnished appearance.
Gold atoms can substitute for the iron atoms in pyrite's atomic structure, and some gold deposits do contain pyrite that contains several tenths of a percent gold in it. That likely is the source of the confusion between the two; however, it hardly makes pyrite as valuable as pure gold. Nickel also substitutes in the structure, forming a closely-related sulfide mineral called bravoite.

When pyrite-bearing rocks are exposed to the elements, the mineral reacts readily with oxygen and water to form new iron oxide and sulfate minerals, as well as sulfuric acid. That chemical reaction causes the acid mine drainage that is a common problem in mining regions (including metal and coal mines).
On the other hand, that same chemical reaction has been used in commercial-scale sulfuric acid production since the 15th century. The mineral is also used to make sulfur dioxide, which is used to bleach paper and in other industrial applications.
Some of you may own marcasite jewelry. It is actually pyrite that has been cut or faceted and polished. Just to confuse matters, the jewelry shares the name of another iron-sulfide mineral (similar to pyrite) that is not used for jewelry. Maybe Fool's marcasite is a better name?
Pyrite is the most common iron sulfide mineral on Earth and is found in shale, coal, limestone, schist and many deposits of metallic ores. Its association with gold ore and its superficially similar appearance led to its confusion with the precious metal, and thus the name 'Fool's gold.' It often forms brassy-yellow, cubic crystals that have a shiny metallic luster. It is not mined for its iron content but is used to make sulfuric acid and other chemicals. Naturally-weathered pyrite creates acid mine drainage.
