Locals nominated to McDonald's All American Team

| | Comments (17) |

It's a simple question on the McDonald's All American blog (yes, they have a blog, too):

Is someone from your high school a 2009 McDonald's All American Boys or Girls nominee? Answer: Yes!

More than 2,000 McDonald's All American nominees were selected from across the country and represent the top high school basketball talent in the nation. Among them is Pasadena's Joseph Henson (San Jose State) and Travis Flye. Muir's Brittany Henderson (Kentucky) and Eliza Pierre (Cal) also are nominated. Henson is averaging 12 points per game and Flye averages 13.5 points. Henderson is averaging 13.7 points, nine rebounds and two blocked shots per game. Pierre averages 10.5 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists, five steals and three blocks per game. Nice!

From those over 2,000 nominees only the top 24 boys and girls will make it to the final teams. Past nominees who went on to play in the McDonald's All American Games include LeBron James, Shaquille O'Neal, Maya Moore, Greg Oden, Candace Parker, Kevin Garnett and the list goes on.

The official 2009 McDonald's All American Teams will be announced on February 18.

Stay tuned.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It's very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

I absolutely love an electronic cig. They are absolutely handy
