Top Speed had the pleasure of trying out a greener option for that other necessary item in any weekend racers garage, a work truck. Sure its nice to have a classic Ferrari or a an all out race car in your garage, but what good are they if you cannot get them to an appropriate environment. That is where our GMC Sierra 2WD Hybrid Crew Cab comes into play, this pick up can haul up to 6,100 pounds of trailer and seat six individuals inside the cab. Aside from the nice touches like the 18 inch chrome rims and larger than life front grill, the Sierra Hybrid has the benefit of being an alternatively fueled vehicle.
The full sized trucks 2-Mode Hybrid/Electric power train is tuned to get as much as 21 MPH when driving around town, impressive for any vehicle that weighs over 5,000 pounds. Don't let the size discourage you, the Sierra Hybrid is easy to drive and the power adjustable front seat allows the driver to find the perfect vantage point.
The truck uses a combination of an electric module and a 6.0 Liter Chevrolet small block to make 332 HP, but you most likely won't have to use much of those ponies, we found ourselves driving the Sierra around on electric only power most of the time, negating the need for any of the eight pistons. It was nice to know that they were there when we needed them like when passing on the highway or pulling a heavy load. One thing was for certain, the GMC Sierra Hybrid is working hard to give trucks a good name again.
Continued after the jump.
Exterior Impression:
The GMC Sierra is big truck, the kind that has a commanding presence on the road, what isn't big however are the Hybrid badges. Unlike the Escalade that shows off its advanced two-mode hybrid/electric drive train, our Sierra 2WD Hybrid would blend in with the rest of the crew at any job site. That's not to say that the Sierra doesn't identify itself as Hybrid vehicle, the tasteful etchings from the Escalade and Tahoe carry over.
Our Stealth Grey Metallic work truck of the future rode on the massive standard issue 18 inch chrome rims that are made up of six thick spokes. The GMC Sierra Hybrid rides high up in the air; the truck has plenty of ground clearance, our Sierra looks even bigger than a normal truck because it combines a full size bed with a full size four door cab, making one large piece of Americana.
Interior Impression:
The inside of the GMC Sierra is as wide open as spacious as the exterior is large. The four door cab can seat six if the center armrest is up. It was easy to find the perfect driving position with our truck's only option, a 6 way power adjustable chair for the driver. It made it easy to grab a hold of one of the most comfortable leather wrapped steering wheels in any vehicle on the road today and view the well laid our gauges.
The seats were covered in a beige cloth that was easy on the eyes, but we are not so sure how well it would stand up to muddy work clothes day in and day out, perhaps some seat covers would be in order. One option that our Sierra was missing is the large LCD back up camera/hybrid monitor. Instead our truck came with a standard issue GM head unit. The rubber floor mats were a nice touch, they should come standard on every vehicle, they just make clean up so much easier, and after all the GMC Sierra should spend a considerable amount of time in the mud.
The Drive:
The GMC Sierra Hybrid drives like any large American truck should, the hybrid drive train only added to our driving experience. In fact we found ourselves driving around town on electric only, negating the need for the 332 HP 6.0 Liter modern day V8 with features like active fuel management and variable valve timing. Unfortunately we didn't have a chance to test the Sierra Hybrid's 367 lb-ft of torque to haul any cargo even though our GMC truck was equipped with a trailer hitch and has a 6,100 pound towing capacity.
Why to Buy:
The GMC Sierra Hybrid is a green truck that deserves to get dirty, unlike an Escalade the gas/electric GMC is more of a tax write off than a status symbol. This is the truck that a foreman will drive to a job site. Showing his clients that they can feel safe that their money is going towards a greener future. This is also the truck that we most expect Willie Nelson to drive to the store, although it's not a bio diesel, the 2-Mode Hybrid system allows the 5,600 pound truck to get an EPA estimated 21 MPG in the city and 22 MPG on the highway.
Why not to Buy:
If you are the average construction worker, you can pick up a standard Sierra for around $22,000. Being green probably won't be such a large factor when it comes time to purchasing your new workhorse, especially when it will set you back almost $20,000. If you don't need a truck, but want to support GM and be extremely flashy go buy a Hybrid Escalade.
Other options that you can look at are the Ford F-150, Dodge Ram, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan. All are full size pick ups with similar sizes, prices and capabilities; although no country builds a truck like America.
Top Speed Final Verdict:
We liked the GMC Sierra 2WD Hybrid Crew Cab, the truck's large living space and dominance on the road made it a vehicle that you feel safe to be behind the wheel of. The truck has seating for six and can haul over 6,000 pounds. This is the perfect truck for fleets and hard working individuals, whose truck will be a large part of their workforce. If General Motors can figure out a way to make the hybrid unit more affordable, our Sierra came in at $39,640, this hybrid pick up would put the F-150 to shame, but we fear that the price to go green is just too expensive for the Sierra's target market.

She wasn't ugly, but not remarkably beautiful either. Not too fat, not too tall, not too loud, but definitely not shy. Steelly grey eyes that matched the clouds that hung over Forks under serious eyebrows made her look continually determined. This, paired with a jet black, short, shaggy bob gave her a tomboyish edge. A delicate jaw shape and heart lips redeemed and otherwise solemn face.There was really nothing very special about her at all, and yet still, much more than ordinary.
These were the thoughts of the Cullen/Hale/Black family, back in their old roost or Forks, Washington for another round of highschool. It had been nearly fifty years since they were last here, and yet surrounded by totally new people, the town itself had changed very little. This was just fine for the Cullen/Hale/Black family, who themselves had not changed either. As the largest group of supernatural beings living together in North America, they counted themselves lucky to have a place to retreat to.
Forks was where werewolf Jacob Black is the Alpha of the wolves in La Push. He and his wife Renesmee had remained on the reservation while the rest of the family went to travel the world.
Carlisle Cullen is the founder of the clan, he created Esme, his wife, Edward, a mind reader, Rosalie, the diva, and Emmet, the jokester. They were later joined by Alice, who can see the future, and Jasper who can feel and manipulate the emotions of those around him. During there last visit to Forks, Edward met Bella, who was a human at the time. After war and conflict and a messy love triangle and a wedding, Bella became pregnant with Edward's baby, only possible because she was still a human. She had Renesmee, a half human-half vampire baby. An overdose of vampire venom saved Bella from near-death, and Jacob imprinted on Renesmee. A stand off with the Volturi came to a draw, and the Cullen/Hale/Black Family dispersed for a while.
They came back together for a short time when Renesmee and Jacob had twins, a boy and girl named Jurni and Caohme. They were the closest thing the world had to a wolf/vamp hybrid, so everyone held their breath for what would come. Other than a growth spurt more dramatic than Renesmee's, Jurni turned into a normal werewolf and Caohme remains ageless.
Now they were back, and they were watching the newest member of Forks High School, Janessa Marquez. She seemed to slide right into the routine, as though there were no new school shock at all, though still in the first week of attendance. All of her teachers already liked her, not surprising seeing how she always got her work done on time, early even. Popularity was common for new students, but sophomore Janessa seemed to like the freshmen more. She was not unaware of the Cullen/Hale/Black family(CHB). It was impossible to live in Forks and not know about the CHB. Not only was their 'father' the best doctor they had ever had, their seclusive tendencies and perpetual good looks made them hard to ignore. Edward had been the first to really notice her. As a mind reader, he had learned to tune out the insipid voices of teenage thoughts. It wasn't until he was directly adressed by Janessa that he realized he could not hear her thoughts. In Environmental Science, they were supposed to be writing an essay about landfills. At the end of class, she said something to him, but he hadn't caught it. Edward was used to just looking into a person's mind to see what they wanted, but it was like there was nothing there. the affect was not unlike missing a stair at the top of the staircase, or perhaps falling because the wall you meant to lean on wasn't there. She stared at him, large dark grey eyes boring into him in a way that made him feel as if she were drilling into his very soul. Not used to floundering in this manner, Edward forced himself to speak.
"What?" he said, with an air of helplessness and an ounce of defense. Now, she looked a little annoyed.
"I said, 'Your chair is on my bag.' Three minutes ago. When the bell rang." she said. Edward then noticed that the room was very empty, except for the teacher, Janessa and him.
"Er, excuse me." he muttered, moving his chair.
"Thanks." she said flatly, then left. Edward was puzzled by this. The only person's thoughts who he could not hear, were Bella's. But that was nothing like this. Everyone's mind was like a speaker, Bella's talent was being able to cover hers. But Janessa didn't seem to have one at all. He wasn't the only member of the CHB to notice that Janessa was strangley immuned to their supernatural powers. Emmett had her in his Geometry class. He made an off color comment in his usual fashion. This, however, earned him an icy glare from Janessa that made even his century old vampire skin crawl. Jasper, also in that class, immediately hoped to 'help', but could not find her emotions. Emmett had been feeling uncomfortable, and those around him were amused, but there was no emotion for the expression on Janessa's face.
It was now lunch time. Of course, everyone at CHB table had food, but no one was eating, except Jacob and Jurni. Edward had conveyed what he noticed, Jasper and Emmet corroborated, and now they were taking turns studying her, because it would definitely be noticed if ten pairs of unblinking eyes were trained on one person. Janessa sat with a group of freshmen, talking and eating. She didn't smile, but she didn't look bleak or angry.
The freshmen around her would spuratically burst into laughter or call out, but she did little more than nod interestedly. Of course, Rosalie went snooping. Janessa was an emancipated minor living in the house that her deceased grandmother willed to her, her parents were also dead. Her grandpa was some kind of entrepreneur that traveled all over the world selling planes or something. she had a perfect record. She was also part Quiliette Indian.
None of this information was remotely helpful. Nor were Jurni's thoughts. Edward was a litte uneasy with Jurni's infatuation, it was his grandson afterall. he also recalled similar thoughts from Jacob over fifty years ago, and how painful it was for him. If Jurni was meant to imprint on someone, it would happen the at first sight, right? It didn't matter what Jurni felt right now. However human Janessa seemed to be, without his mind reading edge, Edward felt exposed, threatened even. Whether she was just a girl with latent abilities like Bella was, or something more sinister, he knew it was imperative he find out.

very interesting, please keep me updated!
Really good so far. Continue.
Chpt 1
"I think she's probably some creepy vamp from the Volturi, you know how greedy they are." Jacob voiced loudly. The CHB were back in the Cullen house, discussing Janessa. Everyone else suspected the Volturi too, but it didn't really make sense. Edward had seen into the mind of the Volturi's leader on several occasions. Aro was a mind reader himself, but his ability relied on physical touch. He was power hungry and especially loved creating and 'collecting' vampires with special talents. He had, on several occasions, extended an invitation to the talents of the Cullen family, Alice and Bella in particular. If there was a vampire with the talent not to appear to be a vampire, it was quite possible that Aro would have it. But Aro believed he was all powerful, he wouldn't send a spy. Not only would he consider it beneath him, but he knew that the CHB would be overly wary of such a trick. He did have people to 'check up' on them every decade or so, but no one ever lingered. While possible, it seemed unlikely that Janessa was one of the Volturi. "Maybe she's just someone who's gotten used to being treated like she's weird. She must know she's different, I don't know a person alive who would stared down Emmett." Caohme snickered. "Yes, she does seem....unperturbed." Jasper said. "You can't sense her emotions." Rosalie reminded. "I can't read Bella's either, but it's not hard to tell when she's frustrated." He snorted. Bella did look worried. She never fully recovered from her human experience with the Volturi, and she knew they would do whatever they could to break up her family. Though comprised of the strongest beings on earth, she was the only one who truly felt the fragility of their relationships. Alice had been trying to summon a vision of the future. Over the past few decades, she had disciplined herself to see around the disturbances of werewolves, Renesmee and the twins, which were little more than fuzzy glitches in the picture. She detected no Volturi presence, but they had gotten around her before. There was also nothing about Janessa. Alice knew this was wrong, because she had purposed to talk to Janessa herself, even if the others chickened out. There was nothing but classes and walking through the halls. This was unsurprising, since Edward couldn't read her mind and Jasper couldn't sense her emotions, but it only added to the unease about Janessa. "Do you think my shield might work on her?" Bella asked. "Or my gift, maybe?" Renesmee wondered. "I don't know...if it's a mind power, it's definitely worth a try, but we have to try it away from distractions, you know?" Edward said. "And just how do you think we'll get her alone? She doesn't like us, man." Emmett said. "No, she doesn't like you, Em." Rosalie chuckled. Emmett scowled, his ego obviously still bruised, but he quickly changed tactics. "I guess we'll just leave that to Jurni, huh?" he said, pushing Jurni who had been sitting very quietly on the couch. He got up slowly, like an animal roused from it's comfortable position. "I think we're going to freak her out with any kind of interregation you have planned." Jurni said. Edward knew this was directed at him. "It's not an interregation, Jurni, we're just curious." Edward corrected. Jurni didn't answer and walked out of the house. There was only a moment of silence, then the conversation started again. Jurni had been a bit of a rebel in the CHB. For a clan of vampires and werewolves, they were very open and friendly with one another. Except Jurni. He seemed to begrudgingly go along with the 'family thing', like a teenager might go along with a parent's religion. He was a lot like Jacob before he imprinted on Renesmee. Except Jacob was somewhat pleasant with his family and Bella. Edward never voiced this, but he knew that Jurni had the uncanny knack to see through fascades, even more than a mind reader, emotion senser and a seer could all together. It could just be the power of observation, but there were times when it seemed supernatural. "Maybe Jurni's right, we can't just ambush her. If she is a Volturi spy, it'll be a give away. If not, it'll be overwhelming." Renesmee said. "Yes...well, I suppose there's only one other option. We befriend her." Edward said. "Wait, what was the first option?" Caohme asked, a little confused and suspicious. Everyone couldn't help but laugh a little. The sound of a car coming down the drive alerted them that Esme and Carlisle were back from a shopping trip. Moments later, they came through the door with enough groceries to feed an army. Though only Jacob, Jurni and Caohme eat food, it was way more than the three of them could eat. It meant that they were expecting some kind of company, and the food was for appearance's sake. Dr. Cullen and his wife have seven foster children, and they rent their rooms out to their 'cousins', the Blacks. either way, it has to look like twelve humans live and sleep and eat in the house, ten of which are supposed to be teenagers. Rosalie hopped up to help Esme in the kitchen, as she was the one who liked to do homey things like cooking and cleaning. Caohme annouced that she was tired, and Renesmee said they were going home to get some sleep, insisting that Jacob came with them. The Blacks were gone, Carlisle joined the rest, and was quickly filled in about the 'Janessa' situation. He listened carefully and quietly. "You don't think you may be over reacting about the whole thing?" he asked. Edward was becoming annoyed with these doubtful comments directed at him. "It's been nearly ten years since we last heard from the Volturi, fifty since we last faced them. It would be irresponsible not to handle this as a possible threat." Edward said. The immediate thoughts of the others made him realize his words were harsh. "I...I just don't want to be caught off guard." He restated. Carlisle nodded. "I understand. But as you said, it would be highly unlikely for the Volturi to send a spy. They believe that everything they want will eventually wander to them." He said knowledgeabley. Edward was still unconvinced. At their last interaction, they had been surprised when they brought the wives along with their army. They may be old and covetous, but they were not unwise. "It's going to be okay. We'll make a new friend and do some more snooping, and when it's over, we'll realize it was nothing at all, just a girl that can do something cool." Bella said, taking Edward's hand. He knew she was still worried, but was trying to put on a brave face because she didn't want anyone else to know. He gripped her hand in acknowledgement to this, and the subject was dropped for now. "Don't we have homework to do?" He asked out loud to remind everyone that morning was fast approaching.
New Reader-I like this :) it's very intresting and you have a unique style of writting. It's good and oh just one tip. When a new person speaks put it on a new line as it gets very confusing and bit hard to read :)

The stars put a 1960s twist on the event, which was billed as "an evening filled with peace, love and psychedelic Shakespeare" starring "groovy love children Rita 'Daisy' Wilson and Tom 'Far Out' Hanks and a tie-dyed cast of hilarious hippies."
The 22nd Annual Simply Shakespeare Celebrity Reading raised money for the Shakespeare Center Los Angeles, an organization which creates literary programs to help impoverished students.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon was arrested for driving while impaired early Saturday in Raleigh.
Gordon was arrested near the intersection of Glenwood Avenue and Pasquotank Drive, according to police. Raleigh police said Gordon received a speeding citation for traveling 50 miles per hour in a 35 mile per hour zone.
According to the citation, Gordon's blood alcohol level was .09 at the time of the arrest. Gordon admitted to drinking three mixed drinks, vodka, court documents show. ?Gordon had to surrender his license and can not drive in North Carolina for 30 days.
Gordon is due in court August 26.
It is not clear why Gordon was in Raleigh. He posted photos to an Instagram account four days ago of himself at RDU International Airport. He wrote he needed to get out of Miami with the photos.
Haydn Patrick "Fats" Thomas posted a $500 bond for Gordon, according to court documents.
In 2013, Thomas rented out a vehicle to former UNC basketball player P.J. Hairston. Hairston was arrested June 5, 2013 in Durham in a vehicle from Thomas along with Elizabeth City State basketball player Miykael Faulcon and former college basketball player Carlos Sanford. All three were charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession. The charges against Hairston were later dismissed.
Gordon pleaded not guilty to a speeding ticket he received May 25 in Ohio, according to WKYC. Gordon was stopped for going 74 miles per hour in a 60 mile per hour. Gordon was fined $187.
Gordon is already facing a season-long suspension from the NFL after failing an offseason drug test. He was suspended two games last season for violating the league's drug policy.
Gordon was supposed to have an appeals hearing later this month with the NFL.
Former teammate D'Qwell Jackson tweeted "please help this kid, it's not about football anymore" in response to Gordon's arrest.

Senior editor Wayne Cunningham hits the legendary gadget district in Japan in search of weird and wonderful electronics.
While in Japan for the 2007 Tokyo auto show, we took a trip through Akihabara, Japan's world-famous district of electronics shops. Akihabara includes shops tiny and large, selling everything from computers to transistors. It's an electronics wonderland.
Shop in Tokyo's Akihabara district will make a surprisingly realistic (or is it creepy?) little doll version of you--in case one of you isn't enough.
Man arrested in connection with Sunday's deadly rampage in the Akihabara electronics district in Japan allegedly posted information prior to the killing spree.

Would religion exist if the first humans had our scientific knowledge?
I am steadfast in my opposition of religion.
I believe there is a beauty to mystery and living well. I believe religion unknowingly does its followers wrong. It tells them that all beauty you see is God's doing.
I believe God is the ultimate manifestation of not knowing the answers. He is the life-filled alternative to an "I don't know."
I believe religion functions as ethics, as philosophy, for those too weak to act good on their own fruition, and need some sort of motivation to be good: a ticket to heaven will do.
So, my question is this: do you believe that, if the first humans knew everything we know today -- about biology, chemistry, physics, economics, and so on -- would religion exist? If so, why? If not, would this be a good or bad thing?
Showing single comment thread. View the full conversation.
Jan 5 2013: Your question implies that science and religion have emerged and evolved separately and in sequence, but it is not the case; it's never the case with anything else ! Everything , and i do mean everything grows together , it's concrecence.
As Einstein put it: all arts, science and religions are branches of the same tree.
Ed Schulte 50+Jan 5 2013: Hi again nn
First I will have to comply with TED rules and post something that relates to the tread above. A subject that appears as often on TED as the subject "What is Happiness or Why am I not Happy" does....gee maybe the two questions are related!!! :-)
All Religions are man-mind-made ....all discoveries made by man-mind are a reflection of that same mind that invents Religions therefore the two Science/Religion cannot b separate in anyway other then that individual minds-egos want to do so.
Hi again nn
And yes I did and a big smile to "thank us" …..and yes any subject worth the context within "thank us" does not suit a "debate" of any kind. All true "Truths" are subjective after all.
Before a go further I would highly suggest your return to your last post to me and remove your e-mail now. (There are plenty of nut cases on the TED forums) I have it now and tag you with the refs you have requested, by that rout, after I sign off here.
Here is a quick quote to end here
"Daskalos: This is very precious work, most vital to our effort to understand and experience the relative truths and advance in our development. It is not enough that we sit and talk and talk, for as I often repeat in the lessons we must not accept anything unless we ourselves have experienced it. Truths unexperienced quickly degenerate into dogmatism."
Jan 6 2013: I quote the great Christopher hitchens
" where religion ends philosophy begins. Where astrology ends astronomy begins. Where alchemy ends chemistry begins,"
Science evolved as the replacement to religious or supernatural ideas such as earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, meteors, the northern lights, the tides, rivers, mountains, weather patterns, the sun itself, the formation of the earth etc etc once all had supernatural explanations but are now replaced by scientific explanations
Jan 6 2013: Let's fallow this logic : when Newtonian physics ends QM begins. But classical physical laws were laws of nature and absolute/objective/scientific truth.
It makes science a record of dead religions.
And if you think astrology and alchemy is not science you terribly diminish this enterprise, which i respect.
I do
Jan 7 2013: No you're Newtonian example doesn't work, it would be closer to say relativity rather than qm but Newtownian physics is largely included in relativity and is merely improved upon. They explain two different aspects the macro and the micro and there is a search currently going on to link the two
Science is the history of evidence, what is currently believed is what current evidence suggests, something's we have reason to think will change in the near future, others we don't such as gravity like it would take a lot of new evidence to disprove gravity as opposed to one version of the multiverse theory which the Lisa telescope will prove or disprove
And astrology and alchemy aren't sciences, you can't get degrees or doctorates in either of them. Alchemy is sheer ignorance of the atomic model, no chemical reaction on earth will turn one element into another ( gold is usually the one alchemists used to try to attain) but through evidence and experiments we discovered that nuclear fusion turns two elements into one larger one and that's called physics
Jan 7 2013: The very division 'macro/micro' reveals the cartesian
mindset :)
' As above so below ' , the laws that governs the universe are simple and truly uni-versal.
Watch this video, if you haven't yet, it's simply brilliant, no words are necessary , no ambiguity here, you can see with your own eyes how it works.
You think that QM is an 'improvement' , inevitable development of N. Ph., let me try to explain shortly why i think it is not.
Btw. classical physics is defined as a ' limiting case ' in QM, not the basis on which it grows.
The subject of QM is the Whole and Parts are the result of the analysis, while in classical physics , parts are fundamental, the Whole is just a convenient notion to assemble the parts.
Don't you see the difference ?
"... astrology and alchemy aren't sciences, you can't get degrees or doctorates in either of them "
Please...., tell me you are kidding :)
Jan 7 2013: You're making no sense, I said relativity was an improvement on Newtown, qm is a whole different thing. Qm deals with quarks, gluons, bosons, photons etc and they come with the uncertainty principle
Relativity deals with larger things such as galaxies and there is no uncertainty principle in the macro because we can know a trucks position and momentum whereas we can't know both for a quark or photon.
And yes I'm being serious Oxford, Cambridge, trinity college Dublin, queens Belfast. St. Andrews, imperial college London, Harvard, MIT all do not offer alchemy or astrology as subjects you can learn
Jan 7 2013: No success ? ! After rediscovering in the middle of the twentieth century N's papers, most scholars now concede that Newton was first an foremost an alchemist. It is also becoming obvious that the inspiration for Newton's laws of light and theory of gravity came from his alchemical work.
And talking about Charles Darwin, don't forget about Russel Wallace, the theory of evolution was called initially Darwin-Wallace theory of evolution. And Wallace appeared to be far more advanced scientist then his time could afford. he had the idea of ' engine' that corrects the mistakes before they occur ; It's the idea of field , conscious field. His idea was suppressed and forgotten alongside with the name. It's very interesting stuff, google it, maybe you'll get new, OK, slightly altered idea of how the scientific doctrine of objectivity was shaped, ' objectivity' is relative to the mindset you bring to it..
And now we are in topic again. No need to go far, let me quote from the comment above :
"All Religions are man-mind-made ....all discoveries made by man-mind are a reflection of that same mind that invents Religions therefore the two Science/Religion cannot be separate "
I am on boad with this vision .
Jan 7 2013: How, just how? You link me an article or paper that claims that newtons belief in two chemicals mixing to form one caused him to form the theory of gravity. That is the biggest gap in logic I've ever heard.
Please define for me what you think alchemy is?
And I'm not arguing that he wasn't an alchemist I know he was but there is no way it influenced him.
And it wasn't that he necessarily discovered gravity, it's just the maths was too complex to understand gravity, so he invents calculus and this aids him in working out the properties of gravity and how it held the solar system together.
And I'm still willing to bet my whole foe on it that if Newton had of been taught about the atom, electrons, and some basic chemistry which 12 year olds learn he'd realise alchemy was wrong, like imagine living in his time when you don't even know what things are made of, of course you'll think alchemy could work. But evidence changes and so do views with evidence and its here I give Newton the benefit of the doubt that if he had modern evidence he would fully embrace it and feel foolish for once thinking that he could make gold by mixing chemicals

Right now, Manny Acta's typical lineup card features Jack Hannahan at third base and Lonnie Chisenhall at designated hitter. That's fine for now, but it won't last once Travis Hafner comes back; Hannahan and Chisenhall can coexist in the starting lineup only because Pronk isn't there to DH. Once Hafner returns, Acta will have to make a decision about who will be the everyday man at the hot corner.
However, the debate has not been limited to just those two candidates. In Wednesday's cleveland.com comment of the day, reader Big M advocated for someone else to be the Tribe's starting third baseman: Jose Lopez. The idea of letting Lopez usurp Hannahan and Chisenhall belies a gross overestimation of Lopez' abilities—a sentiment that seems to be common among Tribe fans this year.
But armchair analysts aren't the only ones enamored with his play. Manny Acta himself seems to be Lopez' biggest fan. He's the go-to guy whenever an infielder needs a day off or there's an opening at DH. He's Acta's preferred right-handed bat off the bench despite the presence of Shelley Duncan, and Acta thinks enough of him that he often hits as high as cleanup when he's in the lineup. But why?
Take a look at the numbers. Jose Lopez is batting .230—not an auspicious start. What's worse, thanks to his poor plate discipline (he's drawn only six walks in 143 plate appearances) he's getting on base at a miserable .259 clip. He hasn't impressed on the field or on the basepaths, and his solid power (.156 ISO) doesn't make up for his other deficiencies.
Anecdotally many fans might remember some of Lopez' big hits this year, but with a 72 wRC+ to his name he has been actually 28 percent worse than a league-average MLB batter—so the idea that he holds his own at the plate is false, let alone thinking of him as a good hitter. And at -0.2 fWAR, Lopez' production has actually been worse than what a team would expect to get from an average player in Triple-A.
How does Lopez compare to the Tribe's other third-base options? Take a look. Here are his numbers against Jack Hannahan's:
And against Lonnie Chisenhall's:
Both of them blow Lopez out of the water. One could make the argument that Lopez is still the best option against left-handed pitchers (personally I'd prefer to keep Hannahan's glove in the lineup), but the perception that Lopez is the best hitter at the hot corner is clearly false.
How about at first base? Here's how he holds up against Casey Kotchman:
Their bats have been essentially equal in value, yet most fans seem to think of Kotchman as an automatic out while Lopez hits in the middle of the order. (The idea that Lopez is the better option against southpaw pitchers has more merit here than at third, but again one must consider the difference between Kotchman's defense and Lopez'.)
Okay, but Shelley Duncan just cannot get anything going at the plate. Lopez has to be a better option of the bench than him, right?
Well, based off this year's numbers, yes—but not by much. Looking at these very similar statlines it's baffling that Acta so prefers Lopez to Duncan. Especially since Duncan has a much better track record and will almost assuredly be a better hitter going forward.
Just to show how wrong popular perceptions are, look at this comparison between Lopez and another right-handed mystery Indians player:
The mystery man is ahead in every category and leads him by more than 20 points of wRC+—I think it's safe to say that the bottom row beats the top. Were this a game show, I'd now open the door and show you…Matt LaPorta from 2011. A player who lost his job at the end of last year—the team has so soured on him that he hasn't gotten a real chance in 2012 despite the obvious need—handily outhit a common face in the middle of the Tribe's current lineup.
This isn't mean to be an attack on Lopez, and while there are better uses for his roster spot I'm not suggesting that he has no value to the Indians. Quite the contrary—his versatility and right-handedness are real assets. But there's no real justification for the idea that he is one of the team's best hitters or Acta's eagerness to play him as much as possible.

Things I liked:i shoot long range after work as it gets dark. these help me to see 60 yard shots and zero in my scope. when the scopes done i switch over to regular paper or spinners.
Things I would have changed:offer a 2 per page/target version so i don't have to keep replacing after multiple shot groups.
Things I liked:Easy to see shots made from a distance.
Things I liked:Everything!
Things I would have changed:Maybe more per pack? They work out to be about 75 cents each (depending on shipping), but I got a good 1/2 hour of shooting out of each one.
What others should know:These targets are great. They are on high quality laminated paper and you can really see your shots hit immediately. I used these for the first time in the rain and put about 20 pellets into it before I swapped out. Of course, the more dots you have, the harder it is to see repeats, but that's not really an issue. I'm definitely buying more of these.

Do folks eat really well in Richmond (VA)?
- p
- pollychowing Jan 30, 2007 11:17 AM
I'm wondering about where to go out for a super, casual dinner - not LOUD and noisy, but small, intimate and comfy. The fan or Carytown would be close by - anything new?
Since my post yesterday, I went to The Times Dispatch restaurant reviews and found their top 10 for 2006; tried Rowland last night and had a lovely dinner. Nice 35 to 40 something crowd, no smoking - a bit slow as they were short-staffed. Husband loved his lamb shank, and my Mahi was nicely done. Will go there again -
I also recommend Rowland. Another good place is Six Burner. Their mac & cheese is to die for. We often get an extra order to take home and have later in the week. And Six Burner takes reservations, whereas Rowland only does for larger parties. Zeus Gallery Cafe on Belmont is intimate but casual and has IMO the best desserts in Richmond, hands down. One thing I definitely would do is stay FAR, FAR, away from Dogwood Grille.
re: pollychowing
The menu leans heavily on the seafood side. I've had salmon and the fried oysters with cheese grits. Also they are good at letting you subdtitute sides, etc. My husband tends to get lamb/beef/pork and I don't remember what he's had specifically but he's been pleased with everything (and he's harder to please than I am). Another place to consider is Comfort on Broad Street, but it can be loud at times, especially in the front, if you are in one of the back booths, it's much quieter. Enoteco Sogno next door to Cabo's is sort of an Edo's Squid light and wasn't loud on the Saturday night we ate there with friends.
Let's see:
Zues Gallery Cafe - Menu changes daily, not too pricey. Great wine
and beer list. The food is great! It's in the Museum District on
Belmont Ave.
Rowland - Not cheap by any means, but it won best new restaurant in
Richmond for 2006. Great fresh seafood, very eclectic but incredible
food. We've eaten there 4 times and they've been the 4 best meals
I've had this in years. Corner of Shields and Main (We can see the
door from our porch!
The 4 Burner Cafe - Quiet, comfy. Older crowd most nights. Food is
good, but not a meal you'll remember in the morning.
Mom's Siam - Vietnamese and excellent! Quiet and comfy.
Those would be my top four picks for quiet and great food. If they
want more casual we end up at Kuba Kubas at least once a week.
Incredible Cuban food, but it's not quiet - just comfy. Fan family
regular hang-out.
Hope that helps.
You know, I have to honestly add that Rowland was not really comfortable seating - my husband sat in a woven, wobbly high back chair, and I sat on a hard, unpadded bench - was offered a fat pillow - too large to sit on, too fat to go behind my backsides. We were close to the next table - occupants were congenial, but they might not have been. Pricey to be understaffed and not really comfy - I guess the chef is definitely the raison d'etre!
We haven't tried Rowland yet but plan to soon.Our favorites include Six Burner,Millie's,and Comfort.We also enjoy Bacchus on Main Street.We used to go to Zeus Gallery but since it has changed so much lately we probably won't go back anytime soon.The quality of the food has gone down as well as the service.I heard that it's because they lost most of their long time staff-including the chef...yikes!!
re: PomPom
Yep...the chef left along with Jeanne and Laura, the two long term waitresses. They are opening a restaurants called Karsen's on Cary St. I believe it's scheduled to open this summer or fall.
Zeus had gotten much better and we still go fairly regularly, but I think the expansion has been too much for the kitchen to keep up with.
I am most excited to try Karsen's, and it's closeby. We had a nice dinner at Amici's last Monday sitting side by side across from Kate's bar - the ambience is European (let the hoi-poloi eat outside in the noxious fumes), and I enjoy the innerworkings occurring inside. We also savored a yummy 2002 Napa Cab. I'll call Karsen's tomorrow.
We visited Karsens Monday and went upstairs where we ran into some gliches - our waitress was friendly but flighty and gave us no clue to the way the unusual menu is set up. (She said she was supposed to bartend, but they were short handed that night) We were left to order blindly; fortunately, my husband ordered the fritters for us which were a real treat. My husband wanted shrimp, but the tiny serving came as a surprise and was too small to stuff so the "stuffing" was on the side (it's called an "option" - now we know), and there are no sides except meal size salads. I enjoyed my veal medallion, but I expected more than the one large piece. The wine list is adequate and we easily found a selection.The owner came when she saw our confusion, and offered us a dessert on the house which we refused, but we did enjoy the tasty chocolate and cobbler choices. We'll go back, again because the basics are all there to give the neighborhood a real good choice.
I do hope karsens makes it - I can't imagine they would scrimp on their crabcakes - that is one item even the least sophisticated Richmonder can reognize as compromised. Went again tonight to The Old City Bar and had a lovely meal with such pleasant surroundings; it is easily reached from here too.
re: pollychowing
We like Old City Bar also and it's easy to walk over to Havana 59 for a mojito. We had a nice dinner at Millie's last night after a couple of glasses of wine from Sensi.
Enjoyed Rowland's when it was Stella's. Had the worst possible dining experience there about a year or so ago for our anniversary, however, when a waitress was openly hostile towards us for reasons that are still a mystery to us. The fact that the staff ignored us for nearly 15 minutes to boot did not help. My wife and I were speechless and we eventually stood up and walked out -- never being approached by anyone to inquire what was wrong. We will never return there and I sincerely hope that no one else was as unfortunate as we were.

The Wedding took place at the Don Cesar in St. Petersburg, Florida. The guests had no idea. Neither did the hotel staff... This video is taking center stage on many newscasts around the country, and is starting to go viral, so we thought we'd share with you as well.
Yes, the swords were metal. The groomsmen wore Knight armor over their suits inspired by in-game weddings from the video game AdventureQuest Worlds.
The videographer scrambled and got 3 extra cameras when tipped off by a man in an Iron Man suit about what was going to happen.
The groom is Artix, creator of a number of video games including AdventureQuest Worlds. The bride is clearly too blinded by love to realize what she got herself into. Also, she paid for the wedding. Maybe this will start a new genre "Battle Wedding."
WWE legend Jimmy Hart picked out a special suit with hearts on it for the occasion. The Ninjas included American Ninja Warrior stars Drew Drechsel and Reko Rivera. George Lowe, the voice of Space Ghost Coast to Coast narrated the cake cutting... which was cut using the #2 Frostmourne replica from World of Warcraft.
Musical guests Voltaire & One-Eyed Doll performed during the reception.
No gifts were accepted at the wedding, only donations for a local school that serves children with disabilities.
Batman is still alone in his cave with his total gym if any of you ladies out there are interested.
"Sincere thanks to you and all of our family and friends who came to watch and to be part of our special day -- whether in person, online, or wherever you may be..." - Adam (Artix) & Michelle (Trini)

Bay Area Crisis Nursery staff get a new look by BACN - over 4 years ago
"This picture was taken at our staff meeting. We purchased 150 t-shirts. Staff were given "tickets" to pick out two shirts for free (in their Christmas stocking). We then have the t-shirts available for purchase by over 100 volunteers and other people who have expressed an interest. This is the first year we've offered shirts with our logo in color. We were able to do that because the staff at CustomInk took our graphic, sharpened it, and made us proud. We couldn't have done it without them. Everyone loves the four colors that chosen and really appreciate the quality of the shirts. We work with children from birth - age 11 and it is important that not only are the colors bright but easy to take care of. Thanks to all the people at CustomInk."

I risked it and bought this not knowing what it smelt like. I thought I have so far liked all of the Glow range so would probably like this too...Well I wasn't disappointed. I don't like overpowering fragrances but thought it was a bit too light at first but through the day could still smell the gentle whiff of this lovely soft floral fragrance so would definately buy again as it has become one of my favouries.

Many of you might remember our Supra Stars issue of Turbo (February, 2000), where, in tribute to one of the best import super cars available on the planet, we unleashed a fury of Supras for your consumption. The issue revolved around Craig Paisley's Supra Drag Monster which graced the cover but a closer look inside highlighted the fact that most of the vehicles featured in the issue were found at the Supras Invade Las Vegas III held on September 17-19, 1999. Christian Rado's street-driven, 10-second strip charmer; Brice Danna's wild, 674 hp, red rocket and Ben Treynor's Supra sleeper were all shot at the event. However, there has been one car that has eluded our grasp until now.
We first saw Kenneth Henderson's meticulously constructed black twin-turbo Supra in the Luxor parking lot. The Bomex front spoiler, Stillen side skirts as well as the 18-inch, three-piece Manaray wheels, the 14-inch cross-drilled Brembo rotors and four-piston calipers at the corners, were all reasons enough to have the Supra set up for a date with the camera.
Although the body has been sculpted with stunning success, we were surprised to hear that the real work was performed under the hood. Kenneth first started modifying his twin-turbo Supra shortly after purchasing the vehicle. With simple bolt-ons and a pair of tweaked factory turbos, the car was able to pound out 418.3 hp at the wheels on pump gas. In late 1997, Kenneth decided to shift the Supra into high gear and enlisted the help of Alex Shen and Jeff Kung of SP Engineering in City of Industry, Calif. The three brainstormed and drew out a battle plan for the Toyota.
At the time, the easiest way to make more power was to remove the factory sequential turbo set-up and install a large single-turbo system. Although this would meet their horsepower expectations, the power output would only be at the top-end. Since Kenneth wanted a daily driver, the single-turbo approach would greatly increase turbo lag and dilute the low-end grunt needed for around-town driving. To resolve the turbo lag issue and increase low-end power, a twin-turbo set-up was decided upon. Unfortunately, at the time, HKS' bolt-on twin turbo upgrade was not available on the market and GReddy's upgraded system for the 2JZ-GTE powerplant was a single-turbo based unit. The solution was to develop a prototype GReddy-based twin-turbo upgrade. To this day, it is the only one of its type.
Take a peek under the hood of Kenneth's Supra and you can easily tell this was no one-day job. Top Secret, a major Japanese-market tuning firm, was enlisted to fabricate a tubular, equal-length, stainless-steel exhaust manifold based upon SP Engineering specifications for U.S.-spec Supras. Advanced Design Fabrication (ADF) of Whittier, Calif. spent countless hours fabricating the entire system's intake, exhaust and intercooler plumbing with multiple heat shields to prevent heat saturation. SP Engineering then mated Top Secret's stainless-steel exhaust manifold to twin GReddy TD06L2 20G-8cm2 turbochargers. A single GReddy Type-C wastegate, with enough CFM to support 1,000 hp at the crank, was called upon to keep the Mitsubishi turbos in check. ADF was also contracted to fabricate the stainless-steel downpipes, super induction air box and secondary fuel rail.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Re-election seeking Sen. Al Franken joined President Barack Obama for only a limited portion of a two-day Minnesota visit.
The Democratic incumbent toured a suburban work force center as part of an unpublicized stop with Obama on Friday. But then Franken headed north to Duluth for a memorial service for former Rep. Jim Oberstar. Franken didn't attend a town hall event Thursday in Minneapolis or a speech in the city on Friday.
Republicans are criticizing Franken as being too cozy with Obama when it comes to economic policy. A political group known as the Heartland Campaign Fund is driving that point home in an ad launched in conjunction with Obama's Minnesota trip.
Other Democratic luminaries, including Sen. Amy Klobuchar and Gov. Mark Dayton, spoke before Obama at Friday's event.

Convicted former governor was released from federal custody a day earlier than expected. Phil Rogers reports.
Former Illinois Gov. George Ryan took a big step toward becoming a free man Wednesday.
Ryan, 79, was released from federal custody a day earlier than expected. Federal Bureau of Prisons spokesman Chris Burke said Ryan was released Wednesday morning.
"I feel wonderful. I'm glad to be home," Ryan said outside his Kankakee home. "There's no place like home, especially in America and freedom's a great thing. I'm glad I've got mine back."
Ryan served in state government for 40 years and spent nearly six years in prison in Terre Haute, Ind., for corruption. He was released from prison in January and bypassed staying at a halfway house to return to the Kankakee home he shared with his wife, who passed away while Ryan was in prison.
"It's an empty house without my wife of some 60 years," he said. "Friday was her birthday. [It] cCaught up to me finally. She's 79. That's life."
His July 4 parole date was bumped up because of the holiday, two sources close to Ryan's family said.
His future plans include writing a book, albeit one that came with a warning.
"With any luck I won't put you in it," he said to a reporter. "If your name appears, it won't be good."
Ryan still has to serve the terms of his mandatory supervised release, which means he'll have to report to a parole officer for one year.
The main provisions of Ryan's release include:
Ryan works at his son's insurance company and was required to report to the Chicago halfway home weekly.
Ryan was ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $603,348, a figure that appears to have been satisfied.
