mp3 player recommendations
Time
You can always go to ebay and get the no name mp3 flash mem stick drive. That's where I got mine. 1 gig and for 50 bucks after shipping. I've had mine for over a year and still works great, and I can put other files on there if I need to move files from one computer to another as well.

Granted, not the most complex thing nor does it have a lot of options, but its small, it works, and its cheap. Did a quick search now on ebay (search 1 gb MP3) and most 1gig players are going for way under 50 bucks after shipping. However, you do deal with a no name brand. Could end up with a lemon...

I might have talked a few local friends into helping me DL the episodes so I hope that I can get them all sometime this year!


Where are you getting them from? I'd love to see all the Dr. Who and how its changed over time. I remember the Tom Baker years when it was on PBS years ago. I'd love to see the other doctors in action.

Haha, whoops. No I didn't read it.

I heard on the radio that they "fired" 2 refs, though. One of them is the one that made the PK call in the AUS-ITA game . And the other is the infamous "3-yellow cards" ref. I'll have to find it on the web somewheres..


This story makes mention of one of the refs that aren't reffing anymore.

I swear I read this one more closely

EDIT: This is totally random, but I'm bored and I was thinking: Let's say a striker beats the keeper (dribbles round him perhaps) then blasts the ball at the goal. It's dead on target, and going fast. The nearest defender is too far away to get a foot to it. It's 100% going to be a goal. But then the defender decides if he can't get his feet to it he's gonna try a different tactic and he dives across the goalmouth, saving the ball with his hands. The ball doesn't go in. What would happen? Would the ref give the goal? Or would he give a penalty for a handball in the box? Considering a penalty has a chance of being saved, it doesn't seem fair, but what are the rules on this? And has it ever happened?
Penalty, and the defender gets sent off for a deliberate hand ball to deny an obvious goal-scoring opportunity.


Yep. Red card for the defender and a PK.

Think the USA is gonna beat Ghana? Ghana is clearly the much better team. At best, the US will get a tie, but that ain't gonna be enough.

X-MEN 3 PSYCHO REVIEW
Time
SPOILERS

That's no nurse. That's Moira MacTaggart! From Muir Island.

And I was very disappointed with the movie. I felt Prof. X was out of character. Getting upset with Logan and then blaming him? For what?! Didn't like that. Upsetting that they killed of Cyclops. Would've been much more dramatic if in the "final battle" with Phoenix, Cyclops destroyed her along with himself. But its true, the movie was about Allverine and Storm. Sheesh, you'd think they'd work on an accent with her.

Speaking of accents, no accent on Colossus. He's supposed to be Russian! And isn't he supposed to have a thing with Kitty? Gah!

END SPOILERS

Woo-hoo!

Devils steamrolled over them Rangers.

Now, to keep it up. A sweep would be ideal. Anything past 4 games would be troubling to me.

Of course, my friends who are Ranger fans were complaining that the Devils got all the calls. That might be true. A few calls were wishy washy, but they had to call the game tight. One bad hit could caused a huge brawl, then the game could've gotten way out of control.

I think that's going to be one of the more exciting match-ups in the east.


it will especially since NJ has never beaten NY


Not in the playoffs. Devils have the advantage in the regular season though. Like that matters. This is what matters.

Saturday is going to be brutal. How much you wanna bet that there are gonna be runs taken at Gomez/Gionta to cool the line off. Try and hurt them.
