The Electrifyer

Pretty close with Walter McCarty singing. I'm pretty shocked he can sing good though... I wonder what Simon Cowell thinks.

Interesting little thing I notices just now: Out of the 20 participants chosen for the rookie game, only 4 of them come from the West. Three from the rookies (Paul, Head & Williams) and one from the sophmores (Harris).

Sayeed is pretty cerebral, like when he knew Locke was lying to him when he was covering for the hatch. And Locke is a lot better at mind games than Charlie is, so it's not out of the question that Sayeed could know Charlie was involved some how.

I love how dunks are kept track of in the stats for All Star games. Reminds me of Slamball.

I think Sayeed was the one who got it out of him. I remember his first name being Henry and I read the ABC.com message boards and they said Gale was his last name. Its some reference to the Wizard of Oz too.

His name is Henry Gale.

Found this on the ABC.com Lost message boards and I don't think anyone posted them here...

Another funny part from this week's episode is when Oscar got his Valentine from his "mom" and hastly put it in his pocket. I love the little subtle progression of the little side storylines in the show.

"The Faces of Scranton" video was just friggin awesome.

Four Pistons? That's incredible. Although they fully deserve being in there, it's going to be weird to see 4 Pistons and their coach at the All-Star game. With the coach, it's actually is going to be 5 Pistons at the All Star game.

Hopefully, for all those who hated the last episode, this one totally made up for it by showing what it led too. (Heel Charlie!)

Charlie's heel turn is now complete! The return of badass Sawyer! Awesome! Very interesting episode, with a nice twist. There was so much action in the Kate-Locke-Jack-Ana Lucia saga that I didn't even think of Charlie being the one who kidnapped Sun and help Sawyer steal the weapons. This is leading up to interesting drama in the camp unfolding. My only compaint is I really wished they use Ecko more though.

The Clippers have never been 11 games over .500 before? Wow, I did not know how bad of a franchise they really were.

Yay... Antonio Davis back in Toronto. Yay.

The concept of the four tribes intrigues me and made me watch this episode. The main reason why I liked All-Stars was because of it being 3 tribes competing against each other. I hope they don't merge these four tribes until at least 4 four weeks in. Also, Sally and Danielle are hot. I wish I were on that tribe.

I loved when Dwight mentioned Lost when he went down the warehouse and said "Remember the time in Lost where they met the others?". I know he wrote an entry about Lost in his blog, but I didn't know he was going to mention it on the show.

All Star starters have been announced: West: Yao Ming Tim Duncan Tracy McGrady Kobe Bryant Steve Nash East: Shaquille O'Neal Jermaine O'Neal Lebron James Dwayne Wade Allen Iverson Yao was leading vote getter over Kobe and Rasheed Wallace will probably be replacing Jermaine O'Neal whose injured. Speaking of All-Stars though, I feel a little bad for Chris Duhon not making the rookie team. Three Bulls players on the team is plenty, but Duhon works pretty damn hard and it's a shame that he couldn't make the team.

I saw Iggy play in the Steve Nash Charity game in Toronto this past summer and he threw down (and missed a couple) sick dunks. This guy has creativity in inventing new dunks you've probably never seen before. One of the things he did was a self alley oop, then he grabbed the ball with his left hand and passed it to his right hand behind his back and windmilled it from there. Although he missed, it was innovative and if he keeps up the creativity, the contest is his.

Moving the dividers doesn't work... they don't even go all the way to each side. There's always a space when I move them to the right or left most spots. Getting rid and turning on the quick launch toolbar also doesn't do anything. I just removes quicklaunch, but does nothing for the toolbar that is empty. And Leena, yeah it happens whether the toolbar is locked or unlocked. I just clicked unlock to try and remove it, but nothing works.

Lol, I noticed that too. The nicknames do sort of fit those characters though. I'm now waiting for someone to take this further and come up with a Star Wars related theory with the island.

On Babcock getting fired: ITS ABOUT TIME. I don't have any idea what his direction was. He did get a few good rookies this season, but outside of that, he did nothing. Trading away Carter for crap in return, drafting Araujo, not re-signed Donyell Marshall and saying that the Raptors would do worse this year than last are amoung his many mistakes as GM. I hope the Raps get a good GM to replace him. I wouldn't even mind if they got the old one back (Glenn Grunwald). Although he handed out some pretty gross contracts, he was still pretty good at spotting talent to fit in Toronto, like drafting Damon Stoudemire, Camby, McGrady, Carter, Peterson, Bosh, etc. With the firing of Babcock though, I wonder how long Sam Mitchell has left now...

I think the reason why some of you guys think this season sucks compared to last was mentioned before by someone. This number of episodes this season has been increased compared to last season and what the writers were prepared for, so thats probably why there is slower plot progression. If the number of episodes stayed the same, the pace would then probably be faster and more exciting. I, however, am so addicted to this show now that I'll watch any "filler episode" that they throw at me and still love it.

They're not as well known as a Video iPod is or anything, but upon researching some nice alternatives, I stumbled upon these two to be the best. I've read all the reviews online as possible, but some of them don't address some questions I have. If anyone has one of these players, I have a few questions about them: For the MPIO (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10062521&catid=10205): How is the Adobe Acrobat reading capability? I just want to know how clear the text is displayed and if you can zoom in on the PDFs. Also, does it play other text files in .DOC or .TXT or anything? And does it have a photo viewing capability for JPEGs? With zoom? For the Samsung (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0665000FS10065038&catid=10205): I know this can't read PDfs, but how is the JPEG viewing capaibility? If the JPEG had text in it, would you be able to zoom in close enough to be able to read the text? And what type of text, document or picture files does this play? I ask these questions because I like reading my class notes for school whenever possible, but sometimes it's very tedious to bring all the notes and I never really know when it is usefull. With the storage capacities of these players, I could easily put all my class notes onto one of these players (in either PDF or JPEG format). My only concern is how clear they will be displayed. Even if scrolling is a pain in the ass in any of the players, it' wouldn't matter to me so long as the text is clear. I don't even know how many people have these players, and maybe this post was a total waste, but please respond if you can.

It seems like Ecko is turning into what Locke used to be and Locke is turning into Jack in a sense that now Locke is becoming this know-it-all type authority figure heel and Ecko is cool, calm and wise face.
