Max Pac or Krejci
Mac Pacioretty or David Krejci, points only, short and long term, and by how much do you prefer your choice?

MaxPac for me. He still has a chance to get better. Krejci has peaked and he can only go down from here.

I'll take Krejci.
The Bruins (& the Dallas Stars) were two teams that didn't do very well on the PP last year. Most teams will have their top forwards register somewhere between 20-35 PPP. For the 2nd year in a row, Krejci put up 50 even-strength points... but only 11 or 12 PPP. I'm a HUGE fan of production at even-strength, because I think that a player that does well even-strength will eventually get a shot on the PP, eventually click, eventually get 20 PPP. 50 ESP + 20 PPP = 70pts for Krejci. I think he could pull that off, but I'd peg him for 65pts. MaxPac had a very nice year with 65pts. But the whole line was magical... Eric Cole had 61pts on 14.5% shooting, DD had 60pts on 16.3% shooting. Can these guys all click again to put up 60+pts each? Hell, no. This is not a line of 60pt players. There's a new coach in Montreal and for all we know he's going to do things differently... which means... the ice time isn't necessarily going to get any better for Cole-DD-MaxPac. Playing devil's advocate to myself, MaxPac did have 52 ESP + 13 PPP. So, his numbers rival Krejci's... and his PPP could/should go up. But I much prefer Krejci's linemates over MaxPac's linemates. Krejci, for me. Full-year predicitons: Krejci = 65pts (50 ESP + 15 PPP) MaxPac = 60pts (45 ESP + 15 PPP) I also much prefer passers (Krejci) over shooters (MaxPac) in points-only leagues.

Max Pac. easily. Could very well be a 40-40 guy going forward. 10th in SOG last year. Just wait until he plays alongside Gally. Krejci = meh.

But yeah in a points league I would agree with you. Krejci is the choice. He's more proven at this point and more likely to be the guy with the higher point total. MaxPac is better in a league with peripheral stats. One thing to think about though, is Krejci going to be getting less PP and regular ice time now that Seguin is growing? Because that could cut into that projection...

I would want the better hockey player, and that is MP.
Let it be known that only 13 points of his 65 came on the powerplay. (4G, 9A) He averaged 3min10s/game on the pwr play last seaon. He'll garner more points with increased pwr play time/opportunities and with a better support cast (Gally + a nice wave of youthful dman coming down the road). nice read below on MP. http://www.habseyesontheprize.com/20...max-pacioretty

Ha - good luck! No way. He put up 32 assists last year and Desharnais and Cole both overachieved in shooting percentage. ps. COD, I already posted the "good news" of MaxPac's PP numbers in my original post. You probably didn't need to regurgitate it as your own... (and I'll have to assume you read my post.) Quote:
Last year they already made the switch, the Marchand-Bergeron-Seguin line became line 1 & PP1 (with Horton out) and Lucic-Krejci-Horton(Peverley) was line 2 & PP2. So that HURT Krejci, but it won't get any worse than that... being Line 2 & PP2. With MaxPac, last year he got Line 1 & PP1 minutes... but can/will it get any better than that? Honestly? Especially with the magic that Cole-DD-MaxPac showed. I don't think that repeats. (I said the same thing about Stastny & Chris Stewart's "magic"... but people weren't listening to that one either. Everybody expected them to repeat.) I mean... how often do we see a player make a big jump... and then we expect them to repeat it - which is often wrong. MaxPac made a huge jump... 65pts in an everything-went-right-for-this-line season. He played 18+ min/game and 3+ min/game PP. People have a tendency to think that young players will CONTINUE to rise just because they are young... but when you are playing 18+ & 3+, you've pretty much maxed out your TOI. The only other maturation is in hockey-sense and chemistry. Is MaxPac's hockey sense & chemistry going to get any better than last season? 65pts. I say no. I say that 65pts will be a standard "great season" for MaxPac going forward. I think he'll level off to more around 60pts. Last edited by Pengwin7; 12-07-2012 at 01:56 PM. |
I'd take MaxPac for sure.
Stamkos was asked today in Tampa how he can top last season: "Well, get into the playoffs. That's the big key and that's our goal here." Follow me on Twitter @thehockeyhitman |

Richard Anuszkiewicz is an American painter, born in Erie, Pennsylvania, in 1930. His work is representative of the op art movement. "Op art" (analogous to the term "pop art") is an abbreviation of "optical art." It was loosely used in the '60s to refer to a class of geometrical abstraction that exploits perceptual ambiguities and other marginal optical devices in order to shock and disrupt vision, causing the work to seem to vibrate, pulsate, or flicker and sometimes creating a hallucinatory appearance of movement. The purpose of optical art is to activate vision by imparting the strongest possible retinal experiences, which is done by exploiting visual ambiguities, so that as the visual system is fatigued the eye fluctuates in an attempt to evoke and maintain a consistent image. For that purpose, op artists elaborated on the well-known visual illusions from the standard textbooks on perceptual psychology. This exploitation of scientific principles in artistic creation was perceived to be an ultimate expression of the modernist ideology and as such was harshly critiqued by a group of the New York–based "neo-geo" artists in the '80s.
Richard Anuszkiewicz's Spectral Cadmium, which will be on display in the Handwerker Gallery's Permanent Collection Showcase, fully inscribes the op are logic. We invite your thoughts and comments on this dazzling encounter between art and science.

How to respond to the Service Battery warning
Last weekend, while testing some battery conditioning software for a future story, I noticed a distressing alert in my Battery menu in the Menu Bar. It said "Service Battery" accompanied by that nasty triangle with the exclamation point in it.
Not a happy thing. NOT awesomeness.
Fortunately, I'm spending most of the week creating videos at Mac Station in Abbotsford, so I have access to skilled and certified Apple Specialists who are able to check out my battery and see if it's really finished.
Fortunately for you, this level of service as not reserved just for friends and family of Apple dealers. If your machine is under warranty1 this service is free and, quite likely, any repair required thereafter.
No Flash? No problem—click here!»
Don't be afraid of bringing your Apple products in for service—that's what the warranty is for.
Thanks to Jeremy Wedel ( @az1de ) for running the diagnostic on my battery and talking with me today on camera so that I could share this technological life lesson with you. My battery failed under warranty and before its time, so my replacement will be free of charge.

"There is a remarkable force to all of Ornstein's music—a burst of energy, a frenzy and a passion which are ever refreshing to the tired musical ear."—George Gershwin
This original anthology is the first single-volume edition of the works of American avant-garde composer Leo Ornstein (1893–2002). Characterized as a futurist and ultra-modernist, Ornstein created daring, dissonant works that excited both admiration and contempt. A steadfast follower of his own musical instincts, the composer retired from his career as an internationally renowned pianist in the 1920s and continued to compose in obscurity for another half-century. Ornstein founded a Philadelphia-based music school, enjoyed a renaissance of popularity in the 1970s, and completed his eighth and final piano sonata at the age of 97.
These sixteen compositions span eight decades and demonstrate a remarkable diversity of styles, from lyrical to atonal. Contents include Three Moods, Impressions of the Thames, Impressions of Chinatown, A Long Remembered Sorrow, A Morning in the Woods, and other works. Aaron Copland declared a performance of Wild Men's Dance as the most controversial moment of his young life, and as recently as 2002, The New York Times pronounced it "a shocker." Many originally published from 1914 to 1925, these pieces were long out of print until their return in this unique edition, which is sure to captivate intermediate to advanced level pianists and all fans of avant-garde music.

Frédéric Chopin composed his piano trio when he was an 18-year-old student. About the performance of the trio on 31 August 1830 he wrote: "On Sunday we rehearsed the trio. Perhaps because I haven't heard it for a while, I was very happy with myself (fortunate man!)." Incidentally, Robert Schumann also shared this opinion, writing in a review: "Is it not as noble as possible, more full of enthusiasm than any song ever written by a poet, original in the smallest detail as in the whole, every note music and life?" We agree with this verdict and recommend this trio in our new Urtext edition to all lovers of highly romantic chamber music.

The Czech composer Antonin Rejcha (also Anton Reicha, 1770–1836) was famous as both an experimental composer and as a teacher and theorist. His 36 Fugues for Piano testify to this experimentalism; they can be seen as a type of "Well-Tempered Piano of the new ages", basing the traditional Baroque fugue on radical new fundaments.
The first edition of this unusual collection was produced in 1803 in Vienna by Reicha's own publishing company "Au Magasin de l'Imprimerie chimique". It included both a dedication poem to Joseph Haydn and a comprehensive foreword in which Reicha identifies the characteristics of his compositional style. The second edition (Vienna 1805) included a short theoretical text "Über das neue Fugensystem" ("On the new fugal system") in the form of a polemic, reacting to his critics, one of whom was Beethoven. Six fugues are based on the themes of other composers (Haydn, Bach, Mozart, Scarlatti, Frescobaldi, Handel).
The musical text is a corrected reprint of the edition by Václav Jan Sýkora from 1973, which itself was based on the referred to edition from 1805 as well as on the later edition by Tobias Haslinger (Vienna, c. 1828).

One of the finest music manuscripts – for scholarly and practical use
My Ladye Nevells Booke is one of the finest musical manuscripts of the late 16th century. With its 42 compositions, it comprises about a third of the keyboard music by William Byrd – including some of his most popular compositions such as the variations on "Sellinger's Round" and "All in a Garden Green".
Byrd himself selected the pieces for this anthology and directed the work of copyist John Baldwin. The meticulous, small corrections, found on almost every page, were most probably written by Byrd himself. The grand coat-of-arms at the beginning refers to Sir Henry Neville of Billingbear (Berkshire) and as such identifies his wife Elizabeth as the dedicatee.
The manuscript did not become public property until 2006 when it was purchased for the British Library. Now it is published in book form for the first time and gives the musician an impression of the richly decorated preserved original volume.
In his commentary, Byrd specialist Oliver Neighbour describes the genesis and history of the work. He also provides information on Byrd's concept, the chosen repertoire and gives technical details on the notation.

Anniversary edition on the occasion of the 75th birthday of Valentin Silvestrov: 'This work could well be called (in analogy to Bach's 'Art of Fugue') 'Art of Melody' if there were a didactic mission.

This very special slipcase edition album features the very best of Ludovico Einaudi for solo piano.
Einaudi's music is universally loved by both musicians and non-musicians, fans of popular music and fans of classical music. His unique, instantly recognisable compositional style is inherently steeped in emotion. It is impossible to play or listen to his music without being affected by it.
The music in this album is largely accessible to pianists of moderate ability, making it suitable both for less capable pianists wishing to progress, as well as further advanced pianists looking for relief from the rigours of the more serious repertoire.
Beautifully packaged and newly engraved, this unique collection includes a special foreword from the composer.

Programme Note
Hans Abrahamsen 6 PIECES FOR HORN, VIOLIN AND PIANO
My '6 Pieces for horn, violin and piano' was written in 1984 as a commission from the Danish Radio for a concert where Ligeti's horn trio should receive its Danish premiere played by Danish musicians.
My trio is based on my work 'Studies for Piano'. While I wrote these studies I tried to 'conjure up' instrumental parts inside the piano movement. When I received the commission for a horn trio I turned to six of the studies and deepened them by 'screening them' so that their parts and moods appeared in a clearer way. Furthermore I changed the order of the movements so a new unity appeared, beginning with a steadyly hesitating 'Serenade' in slow-motion followed by the 'Arabesque' which hardly gets started before it stops. Then 'Blues', a melancholy melody and 'Marcia Funebre', like a fossilized picture with a dramatic threatening outburst ending with a quiet but majestic melody in violin and horn, a melody that disappears in the chords of the piano. Before the last movement 'For the Children' is a large 'Scherzo misterioso'.

Passers-By, Preoccupied
There was a time – not that long ago – when the passers-by on New York's sidewalks were eye candy for street photographers like Misha Erwitt. Then cellphones came along. Things have changed.

Maybe today's children will turn to street recordings, hoping for something interesting in New York again?
I'm grateful to her for bringing it more to light. I hope Cambridge is less distracted!

With sleek metallic case, the DSC-T10 fits anywhere, travels with ease, and captures spectacular color images in a style all its own -- so you can always have great little Sony Cyber-Shot® camera on hand to save your memories.
Sometimes flash can change the mood -- so the DSC-T10 provides high sensitivity (ISO 1000) for excellent low-light shots at higher shutter speed and for capturing images in museums or religious sites where flash may not be permitted. Sony's Clear RAW™ Noise Reduction system counters the picture noise traditionally associated with high ISO.
With its Clear Photo LCD Plus™ design, the DSC-T10's big, bright 2.5"1 screen raises the standard for built-in, on-screen picture viewing -- and gives you adjustable brightness to images look better even in bright sunlight.
A supplied NP-FT1 InfoLITHIUM® rechargeable battery lets you shoot up to 250 pictures3 on a full charge, recharges quickly and easily, and shows you about how much shooting time remains.
The DSC-T10 has a built-in slot for optional Memory Stick Duo™ media that provides ultra-compact, high-capacity shooting and recording.
The Sony Super SteadyShot® system detects camera movement and sends correcting signals to a stabilization lens to prevent image blur and reduce the effect of camera shake -- an advantage when shooting with such a small camera.
With 56 MB Internal Memory, the DSC-T10 allows you to shoot photos without a flash memory card -- so you can always get your shot even if you forgot your card. From internal memory, you can easily transfer your images to Memory Stick Duo™ media, upload to your computer or make prints on your digital printer.
The DSC-T10 gives you greater creative freedom to adjust color mode for the creative results you want -- with new Natural setting for subtle colors and Vivid setting for more intense colors, in addition to Standard, Monochrome and Sepia color settings.
To improve camera response and extend battery life, Sony's Real Imaging Processor LSI (Large Scale Integrated) circuit decreases shutter lag, improves picture quality and clarity, and increases battery stamina.
Another step up in megapixel performance gives you greater detail for making large prints or cropping in tightly on your subject -- with Sony's advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design, more light passes to each pixel for increased sensitivity and reduced noise.
An ingenious lens design provides 3X Optical Zoom capability in amazingly compact camera dimensions -- and even at full zoom the lens doesn't project beyond the camera body, preserving the ultra-slim styling of the DSC-T10.
The DSC-T10 lets you view in-camera images in Slide Show sequence, with one-button operation, selectable transition effects and up to four music background tracks that make it more entertaining to share your memories with family and friends. You can even use supplied Picture Package Music Transfer software to add your own favorite music.
The Cyber-shot® DSC-T10 intelligently "crops into" the central portion of interest in your photo without sacrificing full CCD resolution -- avoiding the image degradation of other digital zooms.
Supplied software makes it easier to upload, organize and search photos on your PC -- and provides a convenient map view function to sort photos by location and display their origin on a world map by using an optional GPS unit.

The Shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald (right-click to copy direct link)
Lee Harvey Oswald's Mug Shot
Dallas, Texas Monday, December 24, 2012
The Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas hosts five eyewitnesses of the Lee Harvey Oswald shooting, including news reporters and the police detective who was handcuffed to the prisoner. Oswald was suspected of killing President Kennedy and was being transported to the Dallas courthouse when Jack Ruby shot him in the basement of the police department on November 24, 1963. Oswald died hours later. Panelists discuss their experiences from that day and talk about the impact of the event on the media and on their lives.

The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza is located in what was once the Texas School Book Depository in Dallas, the building from which Lee Harvey Oswald shot President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. Museum curator Gary Mack spoke to a tour group led by historian Richard Norton Smith about how the museum presents the information about the assassination and ensuing investigations.

In the years since President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963, numerous theories have surfaced about who shot the president and why. In this program, authors David Wrone, Gerald McKnight, David Kaiser and Max Holland dispute each others findings about what really happened in Dallas in 1963.
Former homicide detective James Leavelle looks back at the morning Lee Harvey Oswald was shot by Jack Ruby in Dallas, Texas, on November 24, 1963. At the time of the shooting Oswald was in police custody on suspicion of assassinating President John F. Kennedy two days earlier. Mr. Leavelle was Oswald's police escort when Jack Ruby killed him in the midst of police, reporters, and live television cameras.
In this program from our 1999 "American Presidents: Life Portraits" series we focused on James Garfield's life and career. Historians discussed Garfield's military service, his election as president and assassination shortly after his inauguration.

Metropolitan State University professor Douglas Rossinow teaches a class on the Iran-Contra affair, which took place in the mid-1980s during the Reagan Administration. The Iran-Contra affair stems from Reagan administration officials funding the Contras - who were fighting against the Sandinista regime in Nicaragua - with money from the sale of arms to Iran. The arms were being sold to Iran in the hope of gaining the release of American hostages held in Lebanon - hence the reason the affair is sometimes called as the "arm-for-hostages" scandal. Metropolitan State University is in St. Paul, Minnesota.

PETIT LARCENY - MASSENA - A Louisiana man lost his beef, his barley and his freedom Wednesday night in Massena.
Village police charged Jayson Thompson, 27, of East Dublin, La., with petit larceny at 6 p.m. Wednesday after he allegedly attempted to shoplift $125 worth of steak and beer from Price Chopper.
While he was being processed on the petit larceny count, it was determined the sheriffs department also had a warrant for his arrest from St. Lawrence County Family Court.
He was arraigned by Massena Town Justice Gerald P. Sharlow, and bail was set at $500 on the petit larceny charge and $5,000 on the family court warrant.

Wood floors for all tastes
We used to think wood flooring was too delicate for a family. But considering that wood has been the floor of choice since the 15th century, it appears to be plenty durable. Wood was a huge improvement over earthen floors, and it is softer underfoot than stone. It didn't take long for wood to get the fancy treatment once the French fashi

Thyme in the garden
Whenever I pop fish or a boneless chicken breast in the oven, I head out to the garden for a pinch of thyme. Paired with lemon and a pad of butter, it's my favorite way to dress up any kind of entree for a low-cal quickie. What I love about thyme is it's always there. Plant it once, treat it right, and it never goes away. Thyme m

Long Island, NY - can't evaluate quotes for new HVAC (with duct work)
OMG, will someone please help. My husband and I have decided to put in central air and do away with our very ineffecient "in-wall" dinosaurs. We live in Western Long Island and have received three quotes thus far....all for different brands and costs. Very frustrating to assess. We have a three bedroom ranch that's approximately 1600 sq ft. We are only doing the main level of the house, not the basement. We have an unfinished attic that's accessible for the return.
Quote 1: Luxaire, 3.5 ton, 14 SEER = $xxxx without electric
Quote 2: Goodman, 3 ton, 13 SEER = $xxxx without electric. Said we could also have American Standard and the cost difference is $xxx though not sure if $xxx more or less than Goodman because Mr. Clueless (husband) took the call.
Quote 3: Rheem 16/13 (SEER/EER), 3 ton unit and air-handler $xxxxx
OR, American Standard 16/13 SEER/EER, $xxxxx
Or, American Standard 13/10.5 SEER/EER, $xxxxx
I was told company that did Quote 3 does impeccable duct work (and their three quotes include the electric), but was told same for Company Quote #2 and that recommendation came from my oil service company who does not put in HVAC systems. I have researched this for 9 days now. Waiting on one more quote, but I'm beyond the point of being able to assess anything. This is apples, oranges, and grapes. Company A likes Luxaire, Company B likes Goodman and Company C likes Rheem or American Standard. American Standard scares me as in the Northeast, and in particular Long Island, we are at the merch of LIPA (Long Island Power Authority). American Standard has a motherboard, and LIPA loves to give you surges...to the point we've have the motherboard go on my husband's computer (twice) -- and that's with having a surge protector. I would flip out if the motherboard blew and was not covered. Long Island weather is not Arizona...nice and steady.
Very confused and unlike most men, my husband is letting me do all the work and research. Can someone offer me advice?Last edited by Stamas; 08-07-2012 at 03:58 PM. Reason: Removed pricing

It seems you are on the right track. Doing some research first will save you some pain later. When it comes to brand names, they are all nearly equal, what really warrants your concern is the installers. The best unit is a pile of junk if installed incorrectly.
The contractor recommendations you receive by word of mouth are more valuable than what someone says online about one brand or another. Go with the company you trust more.
Which company showed the most professionalism? Did any of them do any load calculations? You will hear this over and over as more people post but before people talk down to you and scold you for not requiring all contractors to do this, take into considerations which ones did with out you asking. Especially since you are installing all new duct work, you need to find a contractor that knows what they are doing when it comes to sizing equipment and duct work.
One simple way to find this out without sounding to pushy is ask the contractors how they decide what size unit to use. If they say anything like, "we have a rule of thumb" or "The number of square feet" exclude them from your search. If they say something like "We use a load calculation manual" then keep them in consideration. You will be able to tell that they have done some sort of proper load calculation if they took measurements of the house and windows, asked questions about when the house was built or any upgrades that you have done.
The bottom line is the contractor is more important than the equipment.
An air conditioner is designed to have a long productive life if it is installed and maintained correctly, no matter the brand.The only true knowledge is the pursuit of knowledge
First of all, are we looking at "heat pumps" or just air conditioners? If you haven't already research this, heat pumps can provide heating and cooling while ACs can only do cooling. With the winter temperatures in Long Island, I would look into maybe a AC with a gas furnace (if you have gas), instead of a heat pump with an air handler. Not to make your choices more complex but when it gets close to freezing a heat pump doesn't work very well and you will need the booster electric heat to kick in which means higher electric bills.
Quote 1: I am here in California so I won't know how popular Luxaire is, but I never heard of it. I did a little research and it is owned by Johnson controls which makes me think York. My two cents is I don't know the brand... you can decide what that means to you.
Quote 2: The Goodman unit is the standard efficiency unit, so you are getting a basic unit and should be the cheapest along with the 13/10.5 American Standard unit. Now I don't speak for everyone but I tend to hear more negatives about Goodman than any other brand.
Quote 3: The higher your SEER and EER numbers the more energy efficient the unit is. So your 16 SEER/13 EER are really good units and there should be a big price difference. Best thing is to figure out how much are you willing to pay to save on your energy bills in the future. Return on investment can take a while.
I can't help you much with electricity... since I am a mechanical engineer but I am sure the electrician you hire can figure out something. I know that they have more reliable surge protection circuit breakers that should work better than your store bought ones. I would have thought all the units have motherboards somewhere since many thermostats are digital now.
Bottom line if you are going to stay in your house for a while, get the Quote 3. Rheem vs. American Standard (aka Trane)... more information like a model # will definitely help us compare the two better.You can call me Sam

Thanks for the info. To answer Fifth Root - -NONE of these guys mentioned load in their calculations. For quote #1, he didn't measure a thing. He did not look at the house or our electrical feed or anything. He recommended 3.5 ton vs. the other two who recommended 3 ton units. guy #2 who came highly recommended by our oil guy used square feet -- that he measured with an electronic measuring tool but his measurements were lower than quote #3 yet they both came up with same tonnage (3 ton). Quote # 3 was TWICE the price of the other two but included electric. Twice the price is pretty steep even if one guy was a 13 seer two of three of his quotes were for 16 seer. Could the price be double? I didn't think so. BUT, he's been the most attentive and his proposal is very detailed. On the other hand, the quote is only good for thirty days which is odd to me. And when I wrote to him yesterday that his duct work must be the Mercedes but I need a Ford, he said he could quote me less for lesser equipment and will. Look, I don't know much about this and there is no way I could ever know if the duct work is good. All I've got are referrals....one from my oil burner guy (but that was the Goodman brand that people seem to have issues with) and the other from a colleague at work, but he is literally twice the price. That's a huge delta.
To the o.p. who asked about heating -- as previously stated, my house is heated by oil -- so I"m talking Central A/C only.

Will Sestak join Dems looking to challenge Gov. Tom Corbett in 2014?
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The Democratic sweep at the top of Pennsylvania's ballot has so energized the party that three prospective candidates are already sending out strong signals of interest in contesting Republican Gov. Tom Corbett's re-election bid two years from now.
York businessman Tom Wolf, Philadelphia millionaire Tom Knox and state government veteran John Hanger said in recent telephone interviews they are seriously considering seeking the 2014 Democratic nomination or have already decided to run.
Former U.S. Rep. Joe Sestak, a retired Navy vice admiral who narrowly lost his 2010 bid for U.S. Senate, declined to be interviewed by telephone. In an email, he said he is "very interested" in returning to public service but would not discuss his plans for 2014.
Several other Democrats did not rule out campaigns, including Allentown Mayor Ed Pawlowski, state Treasurer Rob McCord and retiring state Auditor General Jack Wagner.
The state's best-known Democrats — U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, who was re-elected this month, and former Gov. Ed Rendell — made clear that they do not intend to run.
"My focus has been and will continue to be the work I'm doing," Casey said Wednesday. "I'm very content in the Senate."
Rendell, a regular guest on the TV talk-show circuit since he left office in 2011, said the state constitution bars him from running for governor again and that even if he could run, he wouldn't.
"I've been there, done that," he said.
In the Nov. 6 election, Pennsylvania voters picked Democrats for president, U.S. Senate and all three of the statewide row offices. Continued...
Democratic interest in ousting Corbett has been fueled by factors that include his low job-approval rating — 40 percent in a Quinnipiac University poll released this month, up from a nadir of 35 percent in June — and public disenchantment over more than $1 billion in spending cuts for public schools and state-supported universities last year.
While Corbett, formerly the attorney general, has signed state budgets on time and kept his promise not to raise taxes, even some GOP leaders roll their eyes over his low-key public persona and his tendency to soft-pedal job-producing projects that he supported.
Corbett has two years to fine-tune his message and build a re-election campaign now in its earliest stages. He'll have the incumbent's fundraising advantage in a campaign that his top political adviser estimates will cost at least $25 million to $30 million.
"There's a long time in the political world between now and the 2014 election," said the adviser, Brian Nutt, who predicts the campaign will hinge on jobs and other fiscal issues.
Corbett also will have history on his side. Every Pennsylvania governor since Milton Shapp was elected in 1970 has served two consecutive terms, with the two parties taking turns in the governorship every eight years.
Still, among many Democrats, optimism runs high.
"I believe I'm going to run right now," said Knox, 71, a businessman who ran unsuccessfully for Philadelphia mayor in 2007 and abandoned a 2010 bid for governor before the primary. "Circumstances happen that might change our mind, but at the present time I'm fully committed."
Wolf, 63, served nearly two years as Rendell's revenue secretary and has contributed generously to Democratic candidates over the years. He said his decision on whether to run ultimately will hinge on the financial condition of the building-products company he heads and that his ancestors launched six generations ago.
"I'm not only not ruling it out, I would love to do this," said Wolf, who considered running in 2010 but decided it would interfere with his business responsibilities.
Hanger, 55, a Harrisburg lawyer, said he hopes to make a decision on a run within the next few weeks and is meeting with potential backers. Continued...
Hanger served on the state Public Utility Commission for five years in the 1990s and headed the Department of Environmental Protection under Rendell for nearly three years. He also was the founding president of the environmental group PennFuture.
"I'm as strongly interested as you can be," he said. "There's a lot of folks who agree that I am prepared to be governor."
Among those who are keeping their options open, Pawlowski said he is seriously considering a bid for governor in 2014, but winning a third term as Allentown's mayor next year is his priority for now.
McCord, a former venture capitalist from the Philadelphia suburbs who was re-elected as state treasurer this month, said the 2014 election was "not my focus right now" but did not rule out a campaign.
Wagner, who is winding up an eight-year tenure as state auditor general, said he is not ruling out another gubernatorial bid but that he is concentrating more on a possible campaign for Pittsburgh mayor next year. Wagner ran for governor in 2010 but came in second in a four-way Democratic primary.

The 2012 Bentley Mulsanne has the horsepower and torque for times when you need the power, but for just cruising on the highway when you don't need a ton of power, the Bentley incorporated cam phasing and variable displacement. Once you get up to speed, excessive horsepower is not needed. The Bentley drops cylinders and powers down to four cylinders when cruising with a light load to save fuel consumption. Under full power, it puts out 505 base horsepower and 752 pound-feet of torque at about 1,750 rpm.
The 2011 Maybach Landaulet Convertible, a German-made sedan with a 6.0-liter, V-12 bi-turbo engine, puts out 620 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, allowing you to cruise to your heart's delight. This five-speed automatic gets 16 m.p.g. on the highway, which is not too shabby for a high horsepower sedan. Put down the convertible top and cruise in style. The four-wheel disc brake setup allows for the extra stopping power needed to slow those horses down when you need to stop. This four-passenger sedan provides plenty of leg room: 41.3 inches. It features 38.8 inches of headroom for those taller people.
The 2011 Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57 S is another German-made best luxury sedan that gives you a comfortable ride with the power to cruise. The Maybach's power plant produces 620 horsepower between 4,800 and 5,100 rpm and 738 pound-feet of torque between 2,000 and 4,000 rpm. This is just about right of idle, so if you goose it, the power is almost instantaneous.
Another one of the best sedan cars is the 2011 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe. The Drophead's 6.7-liter, V-12 power plant puts out 453 horsepower at 5,350 rpm and 531 pound-feet of torque at 3,500 rpm. It hits the 0 to 60 mark in 5.6 seconds with a maximum speed of 150 mph. It's six-speed automatic transmission transfers the power to the rear wheels. The Drophead provides impressive headroom of 40.4 inches and 40.9 inches of leg room in the front. The rear is also spacious, and provides 37.1 inches of headroom and 36.8 inches of leg room in the rear.

- One can hope. "Hope for the best. Expect the worst. So goes the philosophy of the man leading Canada's battle group into one of southern Afghanistan's most treacherous areas, with the spring fighting season just around the corner. A winter of raiding Taliban redoubts for hidden weapons has Lt.-Col. Michel-Henri St-Louis feeling optimistic that the insurgents won't be able to muster the fierce attacks of years past. "We are hoping," said St-Louis, who is in charge of the 1st Battalion, Royal 22e Regiment combat team, based at CFB Valcartier. "The intent is to have the spike in violence either diminished, lulled or taken away. That will obviously make things better."
