Computer Recommendation
Of the recent computers that I have owned, I have been most satisfied with those made by Dell and Lenovo. I currently own a Lenovo TS140 Thinkserver, which I use as a desktop, and a Lenovo Thinkpad 13 Chromebook. The build quality and "feel" of both machines is as good as anything I have ever used. I also own a Samsung laptop, which is a piece of junk, and a low-end Toshiba laptop, which is not bad but has some issues. I have a government issue HP laptop with docks at work and home that I am not happy with, but it has so much security software loaded on it, it is hard to evaluate. I will personally never buy another HP or Samsung computer. If you can afford it, I highly recommend installing an SSD and installing Windows and your applications on it, along with more than 8 GB of memory memory.

Real or fake ufo?
The video did not explain how the passenger captured the hostile UFO, nor does it say whether the passenger has released it. Seriously, how hard can it be to overlay a blurry object onto a video with software such as Adobe Premiere? I suspect the UFO is fake because I believe that the videographer knows what it is. I am prepared to have my mind changed if the person who took the video can produce the pilot of the captured vessel.

Knott County Central 78 Johnson Central 67
When one player dominates the ball, he turns everybody else into spectators. If JC does not develop more balance, they will suffer an embarrassing tournament exit at some point. JC has the talent to be a much better team than it is right now.

LG G3 Keeps Unmounting SD Card
Try cleaning the contacts of the SD card with a Q-Tip moistened with isopropyl alcohol first. If that doesn't work, then try the following tip from Tom's Hardware: Lg G3 SD Card not recognized any more I got a new Moto G 4th Generation about a month ago that would not read any SIM card, so I returned it to Amazon. The replacement worked fine. The Moto G has a poorly designed SIM card slot that does not always make contact with the card. Hopefully, the problem that you are having with your phone is with the card or a software issue and not a design flaw with the phone. I tried several suggestions to make my first phone read a SIM card and had no luck.

My Final All-Class Top 25
Johnson Central and Belfry are as even as two teams can get. Johnson Central doubled the total yards of offense that Belfry had but the Pirates made more big plays in the red zone. Computer rankings have algorithms and once humans start injecting their judgment into the rankings, then you might as well go to a paper ballot system involving polling. I would switch Belfry and Johnson Central based on the head to head result, but I understand why computer rankings do not so. A few years ago, Johnson Central dominated a Louisville Central team at home. Belfry beat Johnson Central and then lost to Central in the state finals. Would you have ranked Johnson Central ahead of state 3A champion, Central? CalPreps has Belfry ranked lower than JC because of the margin of its loss to a Tennessee team, versus the closeness of the JC game - and JC's dominance over Ashland, Wayne Country, and Franklin-Simpson. If Belfry's loss had been by a small margin or if Belfry had finished undefeated, then the win over JC would have placed Belfry over JC. No system is perfect, but CalPreps generally does the best job of picking winners and losers of any of the popular computer rankings, IMO.

My Final All-Class Top 25
Ever heard of an Indiana school named Warren Central? They have fielded some great 6A teams over the years with an offense that is just as run oriented as Johnson Central. For years I have read comments here that:Johnson Central would never win a state 4A title until they scrapped their offense in favor of a balanced attack like Highlands has. Now that they have won a title in dominating fashion, the bar has been raised and the comments are now that they could never compete with good 6A teams without a more balanced offense. A well coached team with outstanding linemen and skill players will always be competitive in any class. Like Warren Central's great teams, this Johnson Central team passed enough to keep defenses honest and had 219 passing yards against Belfry, which defended the pass very well this season - and that was with a freshman quarterback. Teams that discount Johnson Central's ability to pass the ball the next few years are going to be disappointed. Did you really have South Warren ranked fifth in all classes in the preseason? :-)

Johnson Central 48 Franklin-Simpson 0 - 4A State Championship
I was referring to @Tommy2tone's rankings and the tendency for some western Kentucky members to exaggerate the quality of Franklin-Simpson's competition. Had John Hardin, Hopkinsville, or any of the other western Kentucky teams that Franklin-Simpson vanquished met Johnson Central in the finals, the result would have been the same that it was for the Golden Eagle's district opponents this season. I agree that Franklin Simpson was the second best team in 4A, but based on a comparison of scores, I don't think that there was any real difference in the overall strength of the 4A teams in the east and west, except for Johnson Central. Too many based their impression of Johnson Central on the injury riddled team that lost to South Warren in the 2015 title game. South Warren was the top 4A team in 4A last season, but IMO, a healthy Johnson Central was the second best team in 4A last season and they were a very young team. Next season should be a great season for JC, but the young linemen will have some very big shoes to fill.

Johnson Central 48 Franklin-Simpson 0 - 4A State Championship
@Tommy2tone might also reconsider the rest of his rankings. Apparently teams like Ashland, Wayne County, Knott County Central, Mercer County, and Greenup County were not quite the cupcakes that many in western Kentucky assumed that they were. Johnson Central made quite a few teams look bad this season that would have held their own against Franklin-Simpson's schedule.

Franklin-Simpson vs. Johnson Central Updates - 4A State Championship Game
This is exactly right. When you get an early running clock it keeps the final margin down, especially with a team like Johnson Central that runs the ball so much. JC had running clocks against both Ashland and Wayne County early in the second quarter and only scored two more times in each of those games.

I am currently casting the KHSAA audio feed from a Chromebook to my TV through a Chromecast, but I should be able to stream it through Chrome from an Android phone just as easily. Just open your web browser and navigate to the KHSAA radio link.

Belfry 52 Central 31 - 3A State Championship
Everything was flawless for me up until late in the fourth quarter, when I lost the audio. I tried everything but rebooting but all I got was static.

Beechwood/Hazard Updates - Class 1A State Championship Game
I've not seen Hazard play this season. I never expected them to get past Pikeville and Paintsville.
