In the aftermath of the tragic mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, on 14 December—where 20 young children and seven adults, including the perpetrator, were killed—there seems to be a newfound willingness among policy makers and the public to consider common sense gun policy reforms. This is a debate that until now has been conspicuously absent in the United States.
Although mass shootings have increased in recent years, the resultant deaths are just the tip of the iceberg. Guns are used to kill about about 86 people in the US each day,1 and the US has long been an outlier among high income countries in its firearm death rate. This difference is most starkly illustrated by the homicide rate in the US, which is seven times higher than that of 22 other high income nations. The high rate of homicides in the US is driven by a firearm homicide rate that is 20 times higher than in other countries.2
Contrary to pro-gun lobby claims, research into prevention of gun violence has shown that reasonable reforms could reduce the excessively high rates of firearm deaths in the US while preserving …

The Journal Mountain Research and Development published an issue dedicated exclusively to the 2010 Perth Conference. The special issue contains keynotes, synthesis, and policy papers.
A collection of all extended abstracts is available for download (pdf format). The abstracts are also availble as single-file pdfs on the conference CD. If you wish to receive a copy of this CD please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Mountain areas occupy 24% of the Earth's land surface; they are home to 12% of the global population, and another 14% of the population live in their immediate proximity. Globally, mountain areas are vital sources of water for agricultural, industrial, and domestic use. They include major centres of biodiversity, often coinciding with centres of cultural diversity where traditional ecological knowledge is maintained. In an urbanising world, mountain areas are key locations for tourism and recreation.
Mountain systems are particularly fragile, and subject to both natural and anthropogenic drivers of change. These range from volcanic and seismic events and flooding to global climate change and the loss of vegetation and soils because of inappropriate agricultural and forestry practices and extractive industries. Thus, many mountain ecosystems are moving along trajectories that couple high rates of environmental change with strong economic changes. The collective effect may be to alter the ability of these ecosystems to provide critical goods and services to both mountain and lowland people.
In October 2005, many of these issues were addressed in the Open Science Conference of the GLOCHAMORE (Global Change and Mountain Regions) project, funded principally by the EU 6th Framework Programme, with further support from UNESCO, took place in Perth, Scotland. The event was organised by the Centre for Mountain Studies (CMS) at Perth College UHI in collaboration with the other GLOCHAMORE project partners, and was attended by 210 people from 41 countries. Published outcomes included the GLOCHAMORE Research Strategy, the proceedings, and a number of special issues of peer-reviewed journals.
Five years later, the CMS, in collaboration with the Mountain Research Initiative (MRI), is organising a second conference on global change and the world's mountains. The conference is also endorsed by the Global Land Project of the IGBP and IHDP, UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere (MAB) programme, and the Commission on Mountain Response to Global Change of the International Geographical Union.
By bringing scientists from around the world to Perth, it will be a major contribution to the celebration of the 800th anniversary of Perth being granted Royal Burgh status by King William the Lion of Scotland in 1210. For more information, visit the Perth 800 website.

Pizza >Paradise Pizzaria
11389 Nuckols Rd, Glen Allen, VA | Directions 2305937.682869 -77.589930
Best pizza in Richmond – Delicious pizza: thick, piled high will great toppings, and cooked to perfection. You're going to have to wait for a seat, though, and then some more for your food. Well worth it if you have the time.
Best Caesar in Richmond! – Ok first off, the pizza isnt great. and I know good pizza, I come from phily/nyc. Its thick if you like that, but its almost like they make it with a thick spaghetti sauce rather than pizza sauce, them glom on the cheese too thick (which i didnt think was possible). They DO deliver though on weekends (contrary to their competition Nonnas that has better pizza). I have been here twice. They have a house dressing that is a basil vinegarette. Do not be scared by its odd dark green color- its the most awesome dressing! And, I consider it my life mission to find the best caesar salad in the world, so I am very nit picky about my salads. Since I moved to Richmond 8 weeks ago, I had yet to find a good caesar, and I was so impressed by their salad. AMAZING dressing, best in town. We ordered a couple weeks ago, and they screwed up the order big time. We called to complain, and they actually brought out more correct food to our house (on a Friday night). I was impressed by their customer service. Give it a shot!
Huge slices any way you want 'em! – We are new to the area, and a friend recommended this restaurant. After our experience there, I was very surprised to discover that there were no other reviews here. It was great! We arrived at 7pm on a Saturday night and were seated promptly. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable, and the clientele were a nice mix of young couples, families, and groups of friends out for a fun meal. The menu offers "premium" pizzas whole or by the slice, but we chose the "build your own" option and selected from their wide variety of toppings. The slices were huge and delicious--toppings are thick and plentiful. A slice is definitely more than enough to make a meal for one person. Prices are very reasonable, and service was good.

Kennel Cough - Treatment
Kennel cough, or tracheobronchitis, is bronchitis that is marked by a dry, spasmodic cough, retching, sneezing, snorting or choking. It is characterized by inflammation of the upper respiratory system. It can be caused by either a viral or bacterial infection.
Tracheobronchitis is highly contagious and occurs when dogs are kept in crowded places with poor ventilation and a lot of warm air - places like boarding kennels, vaccination clinics, hospital waiting rooms, or any other such place where other infected dogs may be present.
Kennel cough in canines is equivalent, in some aspects, to the common cold in humans. The symptoms are characteristic and obvious enough for diagnosis. And just as the common cold caused by a virus requires no treatment, kennel cough in dogs also does not require any treatment if the condition has been caused due to a viral infection. The symptoms tend to go away within 10 days. However, the commonality between the common cold and kennel cough ends there, since instances of kennel cough that involve the distemper virus carry a high risk and are considered to be serious. Such cases need immediate attention to ensure that the progression of the disease is contained.
The canine respiratory tract has enough safeguards against bacterial invasion. These are present in the shape of hair-like structures, with a coat of mucous, that protrude from the cells lining the respiratory tract. When this protective mechanism is damaged, the invading bacteria, especially Bordetella bronchiseptica, can travel down the airways and cause kennel cough. Kennel cough caused by bacterial infection is also self-limiting. Treatment is limited to cough suppressants to provide relief, as natural recovery takes its course. There are some veterinarians who may recommend or insist on directly killing Bordetella bronchiseptica with the aid of antibiotics.
The stress caused by crowding, heavy dust exposure, and poor ventilation during shipping usually leads to kennel cough in dogs and especially in puppies. Such cases can lead to severe tracheobronchitis. Dry cough in puppies is commonly seen in pet stores. The incubation period of the virus is between two to twelve days, and owners usually come to know about the condition after that have bought home a very sick puppy. Vaccination during the incubation period proves ineffective, and therefore young puppies with symptoms of kennel cough need to be taken to a veterinarian for treatment. Kennel cough in puppies is also self-limiting, but if exposed to Bordetella bronchiseptica during a viral infection, it can lead to serious consequences for the young ones. The condition is known to progress to pneumonia, which can be life-threatening if timely treatment is not given.References:

Feb 06, 2012
The media narrative has begun to turn against Newt Gingrich.
After losing soundly to Mitt Romney in Florida and Nevada, the tone of news coverage for Newt Gingrich became decidedly more negative in the last week, according to Campaign 2012 in the Media, the ongoing analysis of the tone and volume of presidential candidate coverage conducted by the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism.
The week of Monday January 30 through Sunday February 5, a full 41% of the coverage of Gingrich was negative in character, compared with just 24% that was positive. Meanwhile, roughly a third of the coverage (34%) was neutral or simply descriptive. A week earlier, and for the week before that, the tone of news coverage of Gingrich had split evenly between positive and negative treatment of the former Speaker.

I am so not looking forward to a bikini. I have gained over 25 lbs. and any muscle that I may have is hidden under an ugly layer of fat. I am thrilled to see the forum here and so many upbeat people sharing ideas and experiences. Yea!

Paterno widow defends JoePaTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS | February 09,2013STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Breaking more than a year of silence, Sue Paterno is defending her late husband as a moral, disciplined man who never twisted the truth to avoid bad publicity.
The wife of the former Penn State coach is fighting back against the accusations against Joe Paterno that followed the Jerry Sandusky scandal. Her campaign started with a letter sent Friday to former Penn State players.
She wrote that the familys exhaustive response to former FBI director Louis Freehs report for the university on the Sandusky child sex abuse case will officially be released to the public at 9 a.m. Sunday on paterno.com.
Freeh in July accused Joe Paterno and three university officials of covering up allegations against Sandusky, a retired defensive coordinator. Less than two weeks later, the NCAA levied unprecedented sanctions on the program that Joe Paterno built into one of the most well-known in college football.
When the Freeh report was released last July, I was as shocked as anyone by the findings and by Mr. Freehs extraordinary attack on Joes character and integrity. I did not recognize the man Mr. Freeh described, Sue Paterno wrote. I am here to tell you as definitively and forcefully as I know how that Mr. Freeh could not have been more wrong in his assessment of Joe.
The family directed its attorney, Washington lawyer Wick Sollers, to assemble experts to review Freehs findings and Joe Paternos actions, Sue Paterno wrote.
She did not offer details on findings in the letter, except to say that they unreservedly and forcefully confirm my beliefs about Joes conduct.
In addition, they present a passionate and persuasive critique of the Freeh report as a total disservice to the victims of Sandusky and the cause of preventing child sex offenses, Sue Paterno wrote.
Sue Paterno said neither Freehs report, nor the NCAAs actions, should close the book on the scandal.
This cannot happen, she wrote. The Freeh report failed and if it is not challenged and corrected, nothing worthwhile will have come from these tragic events.
In a statement released through a spokesman, Penn State called Sue Paterno an important and valued member of the Penn State community.
We have and continue to appreciate all of her work on behalf of the university, the school said. She has touched many lives and continues to be an inspiration to many Penn Staters.
The Associated Press left messages Friday for representatives for Freeh.
Sanduskys arrest in November 2011, triggered the sweeping scandal, including the firing of Paterno and the departure under pressure of Graham Spanier as president days later. Prosecutors filed perjury and failure to report charges against former athletic director Tim Curley and retired vice president Gary Schultz.
Sandusky, 69, was sentenced last fall to at least 30 years in prison in after being convicted in June on 45 criminal counts. Prosecutors said allegations occurred on and off campus.
The crimes committed by Jerry Sandusky are heartbreaking, Sue Paterno, who has five children and 17 grandchildren, wrote. It is incomprehensible to me that anyone could intentionally harm a child. I think of the victims daily and I pray that God will heal their wounds and comfort their souls.
Freeh released his findings the following month. His team conducted 430 interviews and analyzed over 3.5 million emails and documents, his report said.
Taking into account the available witness statements and evidence, it is more reasonable to conclude that, in order to avoid the consequences of bad publicity, the most powerful leaders at Penn State University Messrs. Spanier, Schultz, Paterno and Curley repeatedly concealed critical facts relating to Sanduskys child abuse from authorities, trustees and the university community, Freeh wrote in releasing the report.
Less than two weeks later, Penn State hastily took down the bronze statue of Paterno outside Beaver Stadium. The next day, the NCAA said Freehs report presented an unprecedented failure of institutional integrity leading to a culture in which a football program was held in higher esteem.
Penn State was given a four-year bowl ban, strict scholarship cuts and a $60 million fine. The NCAA also vacated 111 victories under Paterno, meaning he no longer held the record of most wins by a major college coach.
Since then Spanier, Curley and Schultz have also been charged with obstruction and conspiracy, among other charges. They have vehemently denied the allegations. So has the Paterno family, though they have promised a more detailed response when its own investigation was complete.
Paternos legacy wasnt his statue or his 409 wins, but family and players, his widow said. Less than an hour after the letter was released, a copy was circulating on social media and websites, including one belonging to Seattle Seahawks fullback and former Nittany Lion Michael Robinson.
The great fathers, husbands and citizens you have become fulfill the dreams Joe had, she wrote to the former players. All that we want and what I believe we owe the victims, Joe Paterno and everyone who cares about Penn State is the full record of what happened.
Paterno died in January 2012 at age 85, about two months after being diagnosed with lung cancer. The way university leadership handled his ouster over a late-night telephone call and its handling of the Freeh report and NCAA sanctions remains a sensitive topic for factions of dissatisfied alumni, former players, staff and community members.
I think Sue hit it directly on the head with everything, Robinson said in a phone interview. Personally, Ive been feeling this way for the past year. The Joe the media was portraying was so different from the Joe I know.
Trustee Anthony Lubrano, who joined the board last year after drawing support from disgruntled alumni, has been among more vocal critics who say that school leaders rushed to judgment on Paterno. Critics have also said Freehs report downplayed failures of Pennsylvanias child-protective services.
I knew Joe Paterno as well as one human being can know another. Joe was exactly the moral, disciplined and demanding man you knew him to be, Sue Paterno wrote. Never not once did I see him compromise his principles or twist the truth to avoid bad publicity or protect his reputation.
The Paterno family has remained supportive of the football program and Paternos successor, Bill OBrien. Sue Paterno has been active in organizing Special Olympics, which was again held on campus last summer; and son and former assistant coach Jay Paterno has done speaking engagements with students and attends sporting events.
On Monday, a recorded interview Sue Paterno did with Katie Couric for her Katie show will air nationwide. A preview was posted on the shows website this week.
It is still hard to accept, Sue Paterno told Couric when asked about hearing the Sandusky news. But when I read the first charge, I actually got physically ill.
Ive had so many sleepless nights.
In the preview, Sue Paterno elaborated.
These are children, she said. Our lives have been about children. We have five children. We have 17 grandchildren. Our lives are about children, making them better, not hurting them.
The familys response comes a month after Gov. Tom Corbett filed a federal antitrust lawsuit against the NCAA to overturn the sanctions. The NCAA this week asked a judge to throw out the suit.

Diamond Foods, which makes Emerald Nuts and Pop Secret popcorn, is cleaning up improper accounting of payments to walnut growers. The company launched an internal investigation last year that ultimately found that it improperly accounted for payments to walnut growers for years.
Diamond's stock price has tumbled with investors uncertain what official financial results would look like. The company's bid for the Pringles brand, owned by Procter & Gamble Co., collapsed and it eventually jettisoned its CEO and chief financial officer.
Thilo Wrede of Jefferies is waiting to see if Diamond gives a more thorough explanation for the restatements; if the restatements are limited to the walnut grower payments and exactly when the financial for 2012's fourth quarter and 2013's first quarter will be released.
SHARE ACTION: Diamond Foods' stock gained $1.84 to $19.69 in morning trading. Over the past year, the shares have traded between $16.15 and $40.71.

Online and in newspapers, pundits condemned stores that opened and shoppers who shopped on Thanksgiving. Writing in The Wall Street Journal, Peggy Noonan said Thanksgiving is "more important than anyone's bottom line," and she's likely right. But as I read the many "Thanksgiving is sacred" pieces, I grew tired of people I don't know telling me how to live my life.
I did not go shopping on Thanksgiving, or on Black Friday for that matter, though some of the deals were enticing. But my mom and sister-in-law did go shopping, most likely with my dad and brother in tow.
My mom is 72 years old and now retired after a lifetime of hard work. If she wants to go shopping on Thanksgiving, then she can. Like millions of other Americans, my mom spent Thanksgiving Day with family. She simply chose to spend a few minutes of the day shopping for a deal on a coffee maker.
Ms. Noonan called Black Friday shoppers "the lost, the lonely, the stupid and the compulsive." My mom is none of those. She's just a woman who likes shopping for bargains, which is hardly worthy of anyone's contempt.
And, by the way, where do we draw the line on Thanksgiving as sacred family day? In Selma this year, the fine and charitable folks at Edgerton Memorial United Methodist Church served a community meal on Thanksgiving Day. If the pundits are right, shouldn't the church have let its members spend Thanksgiving Day with their families?
But let's assume it's OK for church members to volunteer to provide for the needy on Thanksgiving; I certainly think it's OK. Is it any less OK for store employees to work on Thanksgiving to provide for their families? Is it any less OK for my mom to shop for Christmas presents for loved ones?
Reasonable people will often disagree, but can't we just agree to let people live their lives as they see fit? Why are we so intent on forcing our views on others?
I'm not that Republican
While I'm on my soapbox, I'm tired of people who don't know me describing my politics.
Yes, I'm a Republican, but I am not what Democrats would have you believe.
I am not, for example, waging a war on women; my wife and daughter would not allow that. I am not opposed to immigration reform; all of those immigrants here illegally are too vital to our workforce to send home. (I think many farmers, construction companies and manufacturers would agree.) I do not hate poor people, and I do not want this country and its president to fail.
I do think this president has made mistakes. His stimulus failed to create jobs, though I take no perverse joy in this country's stubbornly high jobless rate. The president was wrong also to promise Americans they could keep insurance they liked, though I don't think that's the greatest flaw in the Affordable Care Act. Which is to say that I don't know that it's possible to insure more people for fewer dollars without rationing care.
I do subscribe to many Republican policy decisions. For example, I think North Carolina was right not to expand Medicaid, because the federal funding promise was only for three years. What was the state supposed to do after that? Suddenly dump hundreds of thousands of people from the Medicaid rolls or raise taxes on middle class families?
I also have no real qualms with curbing jobless benefits, though I have received them myself. It's time to start repaying the federal dollars we borrowed to extend jobless benefits in the first place.
I have no problem either with ending teacher tenure, even though my wife's an educator. Rightly or wrongly, the curriculum in this state comes from the top down; it's essentially the same in every classroom in every grade in every school in every county, so how much academic freedom do teachers need? I suspect a fair number of principals and superintendents quietly support this view.
But in defense of Democrats, it's easy for them to label Republicans when Republicans do so little to make a good name for themselves, especially in national affairs. Which is to say, for example, that it's one thing to condemn the Affordable Care Act; it's another to offer an alternative that will guarantee quality insurance to more people for premiums they can afford.
Republicans also defer too often to their Tea Party brethren, who have the right idea – government shouldn't spend more money than it takes in – but whose leaders make mistakes; shutting down the federal government, even partially and temporarily, was a bad idea, at least from a public relations standpoint.
So the onus is on Republicans to choose the right leaders to articulate and implement a vision for, among other things, putting Americans back to work and ensuring them affordable, quality health insurance. In the meantime, no one should pretend they know who I am.

Associazione Calcio Milan (Italian pronunciation: [assotʃatˈtsjoːne ˈkaltʃo ˈmiːlan] ( )), commonly referred to as A.C. Milan or simply Milan, is a professional Italian football club based in Milan, Lombardy, that plays in Serie A. Milan was founded in 1899 by English lace-maker Herbert Kilpin and businessman Alfred Edwards among others.[2][4] The club has spent its entire history, with the exception of the 1980–81 and 1982–83 seasons, in the top flight of Italian football, known as Serie A since 1929–30.[2]
They are the second most successful club in world football in terms of international trophies along with Boca Juniors, with 18 officially recognized UEFA and FIFA titles.[5] Milan has won a record of three Intercontinental Cups and one of its successor, the FIFA Club World Cup.[5] Milan have also won the European Cup/Champions League on seven occasions,[5] second only to Real Madrid.[6] They have also won the UEFA Super Cup a record five times and the Cup Winners' Cup twice.[5] Milan has won every major competition in which it has competed, with the exception of the Europa League (in this competition they have lost two semi-finals in 1972 and in 2002). Domestically, with 18 league titles Milan is the joint-second most successful club in Serie A behind Juventus (29 titles), along with local rivals Inter.[7] They have also won the Coppa Italia five times, as well as a record six Supercoppa Italiana triumphs.[5]
Milan's home games are played at San Siro, also known as the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. The stadium, which is shared with Inter, is the largest in Italian football, with a total capacity of 80,018.[8] Inter are considered their biggest rivals, and matches between the two teams are called Derby della Madonnina, which is one of the most followed derbies in football.[9] As of 2010, Milan is the third most supported team in Italy,[10] and the seventh most supported team in Europe, ahead of any other Italian team.[11]
The owner of the club is former Italian Prime Minister and controlling shareholder of Mediaset Silvio Berlusconi, and the vice-president is Adriano Galliani. The club is one of the wealthiest and most valuable in Italian and world football.[12] It was a founding member of the now-defunct G-14 group of Europe's leading football clubs as well as its replacement, the European Club Association.[13]

|This article duplicates, in whole or part, the scope of other article(s) or section(s), specifically, History of A.C. Milan. (July 2013)
A.C. Milan was founded as Milan Cricket and Foot-Ball Club on 16 December 1899 by English expatriates Alfred Edwards and Herbert Kilpin,[4] who came from the English city of Nottingham. In honour of its English origins, the club has retained the English spelling of the city's name, as opposed to the Italian spelling Milano which it was forced to bear under the fascist regime. Milan won its first Italian championship in 1901 and a further two in succession in 1906 and 1907.[2]
In 1908, Milan experienced a split caused by internal disagreements over the signing of foreign players, which led to the forming of another Milan-based team, F.C. Internazionale Milano.[14] Following these events, Milan did not manage to win a single domestic title until 1950–51.[5] The 1950s saw the club return to the top of Italian football, headed by the famous Gre-No-Li Swedish trio Gunnar Gren, Gunnar Nordahl and Nils Liedholm. This was one of the club's most successful periods domestically, with the Scudetto going to Milan in 1951, 1955, 1957, 1959 and 1962.[5] In 1963, Milan won its first continental title by beating S.L. Benfica in the final of the European Cup.[15] This success was repeated in 1969, with a 4–1 win over AFC Ajax in the final, which was followed by the Intercontinental Cup title the same year.[5] During this period Milan also won its first Coppa Italia, with victory over Padova in the 1967 final, and three European Cup Winners' Cups; in 1967–68, 1972–73 and 1973–74.[5]
Milan won a tenth league title in 1979, but after the retirement of Gianni Rivera in the same year, the team went into a period of decline. The club was involved in the 1980 Totonero scandal and as punishment was relegated to Serie B for the first time in its history.[16] The scandal was centered around a betting syndicate paying players and officials to fix the outcome of matches.[16] Milan achieved promotion back to Serie A at the first attempt, winning the 1980–81 Serie B title,[5] but were again relegated a year later as the team ended its 1981–82 campaign in third last place. In 1983, Milan won the Serie B title for the second time in three seasons to return to Serie A,[5] where they achieved a sixth place finish in 1983–84.
On 20 February 1986, entrepreneur Silvio Berlusconi acquired the club and saved it from bankruptcy investing vast amounts of money,[2] appointing rising manager Arrigo Sacchi at the helm of the Rossoneri and signing the Dutch trio of Ruud Gullit, Marco van Basten and Frank Rijkaard.[2] Under Sacchi, Milan won its first Scudetto in nine years in the 1987–88 season. The following year the club won its first European Cup in two decades, beating Romanian club Steaua București 4–0 in the final. Milan retained their title with a 1–0 win over Benfica a year later and remain the last team to win back-to-back European Cups.[17] The Milan team of 1989–90 has been voted the best club side of all time, in a global poll of experts conducted by World Soccer magazine.[18]
After Sacchi left Milan in 1991, he was replaced by the club's former player Fabio Capello whose team won three consecutive Serie A titles between 1992 and 1994, a spell which included a 58 match unbeaten run in Serie A[19] and back-to-back UEFA Champions League final appearances in 1993 and 1994. A year after losing 1–0 to Olympique de Marseille in the 1993 Champions League final, the team reached its peak in one of Milan's most memorable matches of all time, the famous 4–0 win over Barcelona in the 1994 Champions League final.[19] Capello's team went on to win the 1995–96 league title before he left to coach Real Madrid in 1996.[19] In 1998–99, after a two-year period of decline, Milan lifted its 16th championship in the club's centenary season.
Milan's next period of success came under another former player, Carlo Ancelotti. After his appointment in November 2001, Ancelotti took Milan to the 2003 Champions League final, where they defeated Juventus on penalties to win the club's sixth European Cup.[20] The team then won the Scudetto in 2003–04, before reaching the 2005 Champions League final, where they were beaten by Liverpool on penalties despite leading 3–0 at half time.[20] Two years later, the two teams met again in the 2007 Champions League final with Milan winning 2–1 to lift the title for a seventh time.[20][21] The team then won its first FIFA Club World Cup in December 2007.[22] In 2009, after becoming Milan's second longest serving coach, with 420 matches overseen,[22] Ancelotti left the club to take over as head-coach at Chelsea.
During this period, the club was involved in the Calciopoli scandal, where five teams were accused of fixing matches by selecting favorable referees.[23] A police inquiry excluded any involvement of Milan managers,[24] but FIGC unilaterally decided that it had sufficient evidence to charge Milan vice-president, Adriano Galliani. As a result, Milan was initially punished with a 15-point deduction and was initially banned from the 2006–07 UEFA Champions League. An appeal saw that penalty reduced to eight points,[25] which allowed the club to retain its Champions League participation.
Following the aftermath of Calciopoli, local rivals Internazionale dominated Serie A, winning four Scudetti. However, with the help a strong squad boasting players such as Zlatan Ibrahimović, Robinho and Alexandre Pato joining many of the veterans of the club's mid-decade European successes, Milan recaptured the Scudetto in the 2010–11 Serie A season, their first since the 2003–04 season, and 18th overall.[26][27]
Colours and badge
Red and black are the colours which have represented the club throughout its entire history. They were chosen to represent the players' fiery ardor (red) and the opponents' fear to challenge the team (black). Rossoneri, the team's widely used nickname, literally means "the red & blacks" in Italian, in reference to the colours of the stripes on its jersey.[28]
Another nickname derived from the club's colours is the Devil. An image of a red devil was used as Milan's logo at one point with a Golden Star for Sport Excellence located next to it.[29] As is customary in Italian football, the star above the logo was awarded to the club after winning 10 league titles, in 1979. For many years, Milan's badge was simply the Flag of Milan, which was originally the flag of Saint Ambrose.[29] The modern badge used today represents the club colours and the flag of the Comune di Milano, with the acronym ACM at the top and the foundation year (1899) at the bottom.[29]
White shorts and black socks are usually worn as part of the home strip. Milan's away strip has always been completely white.[30] It is considered by both the fans and the club to be a lucky strip in Champions League finals, due to the fact that Milan has won six finals out of eight in an all white strip (losing only to Ajax in 1995 and Liverpool in 2005), and only won one out of three in the home strip. The third strip, which is rarely used, changes yearly, being mostly black with red trimmings in recent seasons.

The team's stadium is the 80,018 seat San Siro, officially known as Stadio Giuseppe Meazza after the former player who represented both Milan and Internazionale. The more commonly used name, San Siro, is the name of the district where it is located. San Siro has been the home of Milan since 1926, when it was privately built by funding from Milan's president at the time, Piero Pirelli. Construction was performed by 120 workers, and took 13 and a half months to complete. The stadium was owned by the club until it was sold to the city council in 1935, and since 1947 has been shared with Internazionale, when the other major Milanese club was accepted as joint tenant.
The first game played at the stadium was on 19 September 1926, when Milan lost 6–3 in a friendly match against Internazionale. Milan played its first league game in San Siro on 19 September 1926, losing 1–2 to Sampierdarenese. From an initial capacity of 35,000 spectators, the stadium has undergone several major renovations, most recently in preparation for the 1990 FIFA World Cup when its capacity was set to 85,700, all covered with a polycarbonate roof. In the summer of 2008 its capacity has been reduced to 80,018, in order to meet the new standards set by UEFA.
Based on the English model for stadiums, San Siro is specifically designed for football matches, as opposed to many multi-purpose stadiums used in Serie A. It is therefore renowned in Italy for its fantastic atmosphere during matches, thanks to the closeness of the stands to the pitch. The frequent use of flares by supporters contributes to the atmosphere but the practice has occasionally caused problems.
On 19 December 2005, Milan vice-president and executive director Adriano Galliani announced that the club is seriously working towards a relocation. He said that Milan's new stadium will be largely based on the Veltins-Arena and will follow the standards of football stadiums in the United States, Germany and Spain. As opposed to many other stadiums in Italy, Milan's new stadium will likely be used for football only, having no athletics track. The new stadium's naming rights will be probably sold to a sponsor, similarly to Arsenal's Emirates Stadium.[31] It remains to be seen if this plan will proceed or if this is just a ploy to force the owners (Comune di Milano) to sell the stadium to Milan for a nominal fee so as to proceed with extensive renovations. The possibility of Internazionale vacating San Siro may affect proceedings.
Supporters and rivalries
Milan is one of the best supported football clubs in Italy, according to research conducted by Italian newspaper La Repubblica.[32] Historically, Milan was supported by the city's working-class and trade unionists.[33] On the other hand, crosstown rivals Internazionale were mainly supported by the more prosperous and typically Milanese middle-class.[33] One of the oldest ultras groups in all of Italian football, Fossa dei Leoni, originated in Milan.[34] Currently, the main ultras group within the support base is Brigate Rossonere.[34] Politically, Milan ultras have never had any particular preference,[34] but the media traditionally associated them with the left-wing,[35] until recently, when Berlusconi's presidency somewhat altered that view.[36]
According to a study from 2010, Milan is the most supported Italian team in Europe and seventh overall, with over 18.4 million fans.[11] AC Milan had the ninth highest average attendance of European football clubs during the 2010–11 season, behind Borussia Dortmund, FC Barcelona, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Schalke, Arsenal, and Hamburg.[37][38][39][40][41]
Genoa fans consider Milan a hated rival after Genoa fan, Vincenzo Spagnolo was stabbed to death by a Milan supporter in January 1995.[42] However, Milan's main rivalry is with neighbor club, Internazionale; both clubs meet in the widely anticipated Derby della Madonnina twice every Serie A season. The name of the derby refers to the Blessed Virgin Mary, whose statue atop the Milan Cathedral is one of the city's main attractions. The match usually creates a lively atmosphere, with numerous (often humorous or offensive) banners unfolded before the start of the game. Flares are commonly present and contribute to the spectacle but they have occasionally led to problems, including the abandonment of the second leg of the 2004–05 Champions League quarterfinal match between Milan and Inter on 12 April 2005, after a flare thrown from the crowd by an Inter supporter struck Milan keeper Dida on the shoulder.[43]

Presidents and managers
Presidential history
Milan has had numerous presidents over the course of its history, some of whom have been owners of the club while others have been honorary presidents. Here is a complete list of them.[97]
Managerial history
Below is a list of Milan coaches from 1900 until the present day.[98]
Milan is one of the most successful clubs in Italy, having won a total of 29 major trophies. Together with Boca Juniors,[99] Milan is the second most successful club in the world in terms of international competitions won, with a record of 14 European trophies and four World titles. Milan has earned the right to place a star on its jersey in recognition of the fact that it has won at least ten scudetti. In addition, the club is permanently allowed to display a multiple-winner badge on its shirt as it has won more than five European Championship Cups.[100]
- Italian Football Championship / Serie A (level 1)
- Coppa Italia
- UEFA Cup Winners' Cup
- Intercontinental Cup
- FIFA Club World Cup
- Winners (1): 2007
Club statistics and records
Paolo Maldini holds the records for both total appearances and Serie A appearances for Milan, with 902 official games played in total and 647 in Serie A (as of 31 May 2009, not including playoff matches),[101] the latter being an all time Serie A record.[102]
Swedish forward Gunnar Nordahl scored 38 goals in the 1950–51 season, 35 of which were in Serie A, setting an Italian football and club record. He went on to become Milan's all time top goalscorer, scoring 221 goals for the club in 268 games.[103] He is followed in second place by Andriy Shevchenko with 175 goals in 322 games, and Gianni Rivera in third place, who has scored 164 goals in 658 games. Rivera is also Milan's youngest ever goalscorer, scoring in a league match against Juventus at just 17 years.
Legendary tactician Nereo Rocco, the first proponent of catenaccio in the country, was Milan's longest serving head coach, sitting on the bench for over 9 years (in two spells) in the 1960s and early 1970s, winning the club's first European Cup triumphs. Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who purchased the club in 1986, is Milan's longest serving president (23 years, due to a two-year vacancy between 2004 and 2006).
The first official match in which Milan participated was in the Third Federal Football Championship, the predecessor of Serie A, losing 3–0 to Torinese. Milan's biggest ever victory was 13–0 versus Audax Modena, in a league match at the 1914–15 season. Its heaviest defeat was recorded in the league at the 1922–23 season, beaten 0–8 by Bologna.
During the 1991–92 season, the club achieved the feature of being the first team to win the Serie A title without losing a single game. Previously, only Perugia had managed to go unbeaten over an entire Serie A season (1978–79), but finished second in the table. In total, Milan's unbeaten streak lasted 58 games, starting with a 0–0 draw against Parma on 26 May 1991 and coincidentally ending with a 1–0 home loss to Parma on 21 March 1993. This is a Serie A record as well as the third longest unbeaten run in top flight European football, coming in behind Steaua Bucureşti's record of 104 unbeaten games and Celtic's 68 game unbeaten run.[104][105]
Along with Boca Juniors, Milan won more FIFA recognized international club titles than any other club in the world.[106]
The sale of Kaká to Real Madrid in 2009, broke the 8-year-old world football transfer record held by Zinedine Zidane, costing the Spanish club £56 million.[107] However, that record lasted for less than a month, broken by Cristiano Ronaldo's £80 million transfer. This record, however, is in terms of nominal British pound rates, not adjusted to inflation or the real value in Euro, the currency used in Italy and Spain.
A.C. Milan as a company
Milan is a subsidiary of Fininvest Group since 1986. The office of club president has been vacant since 8 May 2008, following a new Italian law that forbids the country's prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, to have other managing roles in private companies or clubs.[114] The vice president and CEO of the company is Adriano Galliani.
According to The Football Money League published by consultants Deloitte, in the 2005–06 season, Milan was the fifth highest earning football club in the world with an estimated revenue of €233.7 million.[115] However it fell to 8th in 2011–12 season.[116] The club is also ranked as the sixth wealthiest football club in the world by Forbes magazine as of 2011, making it the wealthiest in Italian football.[12]
Fly Emirates is the current main sponsor for Milan's shirt starting for the 2010–11 season and lasting 5 years,[117] after 4 years with Austrian online betting company bwin.com as the sponsor.
Previously, the German car manufacturer Opel (owned by GM) had sponsored Milan for 12 seasons. For most of them, Opel was displayed on the front of the shirt, but in the 2003–04 and the 2005–06 seasons respectively, Meriva and Zafira (two cars from their range) were displayed.[citation needed]
The current shirts are supplied by German sportswear manufacturer Adidas, whose deal runs to the end of the 2017–18 season.[118] The deal makes Adidas the official manufacturer of all kits, training equipment and replica outfits. Prior to Adidas, the Italian sports company Lotto produced Milan's sportswear.
On 14 January 2008, Milan and Adidas renewed the sponsorship contract until 30 June 2018. According to the new contract, Adidas will be responsible for 3 separate areas of sponsorship; the sponsorship on the shirt, the merchandising and the distribution of all non-football related Milan products.[119]
AC Milan Group made an aggregate net loss in recent year, was one of the largest among the Italian clubs, which: 2005, net loss of €4.5 million (separate account);[120] 2006, a net income of €11.904 million (contributed by the sales of Shevchenko);[120] 2007, a net loss of €32 million;[121] 2008, a net loss of €77 million;[122] 2009, a net loss of €19 million (contributed by the sales of Kaká);[123] 2010 a net loss of €65 million;[124] 2011 a net loss of €67.334 million[125] and most recently a net loss of €6.857 million (contributed by the sales of Thiago Silva and Ibrahimović).[126]
AC Milan had re-capitalization of €75 million in 2007 financial year;[127] €93 million in 2008; €18 million in 2009[128] and €44 million in 2010[129] (€20.9 million of the capital increase was converted from shareholder loan); €87 million in 2011;[130] €29 million in 2012.[131] However, the group has had negative equity at the end of each fiscal year since 2006. The balance was €40.8 million in 2006, €47.5 million in 2007, €64.5 million in 2008, €72 million in 2009, €96.6 million in 2010, €77.091 million in 2011 and €54.948 million in 2012.

"I have 5 sets of the e30 with varying amount of time on them ranging from brand new to 500 hours and there is so much variation that I don't know which one to review here.

Save the Nuclear Dawn Mural in Brixton
Brixton's Nuclear Dawn mural is under threat as there are plans to develop the space next to the mural. The mural is locally listed and recognised as being a piece of Brixton heritage.
However it is up to the local community to speak up and ask for it to remain. We would like as many people to sign as possible but please add a comment if you are a local person, or have memories of the mural, as this will provide us with important and useful evidence of the mural's value to the local community.
We, the undersigned are opposed to any plans to remove the Nuclear Dawn Mural. We demand it is protected and repaired for future generations to enjoy.
NB The donation form which appears after you sign is not for the restoration fund.
Charles Green
This mean so much to those that live in brixton. It would be a travesty if it disappeared.
Nikki clark
Some things are just worth preserving...Fukushima isnt over...
this mural has a deep meaning to me.

Raiders-Broncos game televised locally
By Steve Corkran
Tuesday, December 4th, 2012 at 6:50 pm in Oakland Raiders.
The Raiders game against the Denver Broncos sold enough tickets to ensure it being televised locally, a team official said.
Therefore, fans not attending the Thursday night game at the Coliseum also will get a chance to see if the Raiders can snap a five-game losing streak and their first look at Pro Football Hall of Fame-bound quarterback Peyton Manning in a Broncos jersey.
The Raiders sold enough tickets to avoid a blackout of local TV for 13 straight regular-season home games before last Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns failed to reach the threshold.
The game will be televised on NFL Network and KGO-TV in the Bay Area.

|RHET 105, Spring 2012
|RHET105 Fall 2011: Principles of Composition
|RHET105 Principles of Composing
|Rhetoric 102 Race and the University is the second course in the year long composition requirement at the University of Illinois. Students build their academic writing skills and develop research strategies with the ultimate goal of completing an in-depth research project. As part of the Ethnography of the University Initiative, this course asks students to examine the "race" and "the university" as topics of inquiry. While reading about important issues in contemporary race discussions and exploring the relationships between race, representation and language, students choose a race-related issue on campus to research through firsthand experience with interviews, field observations, and text analysis in order to create their own original scholarly work.
|Rhetoric 105, Principles of Composition, Race & the University, Instr. Kristin McCann: This course entailed continual negotiation of three primary focuses: academic writing, introduction to ethnographic research methodologies, and critical inquiry into issues of race and representation. I approached this course as a semester-long conversation with students, the texts with which we engaged, and the kairos of the physical and ideological spaces in which we were immersed. I encouraged students to draw upon their expertise as current UIUC undergraduates and to consider their stake in the university's narratives. Students were, of course, not expected to produce a complete 'ethnography'; rather, to consider what combination of ethnographic research methodologies might be most useful to their specific essays and research projects and what issues they deemed most exigent for their inquiries. Students also had the opportunity to present at the bi-annual EUI conference, alongside other EUI undergraduate and graduate students.

|Rhetoric 105/Principles of Composition introduces students to the practices of research-based writing for academic audiences, such as formulating a researchable question, locating sources, constructing an argument, drafting, revising, and editing. This course uses writing, reading, observing, and critical thinking to develop scholarly curiosity. To do this, instructors focus on: deepening research skills, developing students' abilities to read and respond to difficult texts, and, most importantly, helping students through the writing process in a social, collaborative, revision-focused environment. This particular section of Rhetoric 105 was focused around the theme of "Exploring Student Communities at the University of Illinois." The assignments and discussions asked students to explore their own experiences as students and consider how various student communities shape our campus culture and identities as students. Over the course of the semester students formulated research questions about a particular campus community and answered them by doing semester-long ethnographic research (observations, interviews, archive analysis, and surveys), including a short video presentation. The kinds of writing studies and conducted were formulated around reflections on these communities.
|Students were encouraged to make their work public so that their research subjects, fellow students and Syracuse community participants, would be able to comment and provide feedback on their research. The IDEALS on-line archive would enable this process to be recorded for future students in the hope that they will build on present student research. The archiving of "scholarship in action" research for ANT 300 may help Syracuse University better understands the learning outcomes of "scholarship in action" initiatives.
|The course also introduced students to ethnographic methods. The bulk of this class was devoted to students' own ethnographic projects on a Syracuse University "Scholarship in Action" endeavor although it was possible to carry out research on other areas if students presented a good case for doing so. A wide variety of social practices and learning processes were expected to become part of what students researched.
|The Ethnography of the University Initiative (EUI) includes several universities and community colleges located in the state of Illinois. All of these schools are public. Syracuse University is the first non-Illinois and first private university to join the group. This class joined an inter-campus learning community in which many classes from several schools (most, however, are located at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) explore their universities and colleges ethnographically. In order to explore Syracuse University ethnographically, we needed to think about what "the university" is, what "ethnography" is, and what "scholarship in action" is. Broadly, we explored the university as a composite of prose, numerical, and visual narratives.
|The Ethnography of the University: Studying Scholarship in Action was designed to introduce undergraduate students to ethnographic methodologies, institutional analysis, and the research publication process. Students conducted ethnographic studies of Syracuse University Scholarship in Action projects of their choosing and had the opportunity to produce their results on the web. All the steps in the research process, from the formation of research questions to the creation of final research papers, was produced on-line at a collaborative website, Moodle, that has been created at the University of Illinois to facilitate undergraduate ethnography of the university projects. This project is titled the Ethnography of the University Initiative (EUI).
|There are three main components to this course: reading, composition, research. Readings focused on issues related to 'difference' and higher education, and the composing students did for this class included in-class writing, reading responses, and essays that build toward a research project of students' choosing. This course drew upon students' expertise as current U of I students and provided a space for them to 'inquire into'--to ask questions about—spaces they encounter on a daily basis. Throughout this course, we considered what the university 'is' and regarded 'difference' as an area of inquiry within the university's narratives. Another area of concentration was "ethnography," and students gained practice in the basic skills of ethnographic research—i.e., observation, interviewing, artifact analysis. Such practice was built into various assignments/students' own research project.
|Under the title of "Writing and Language in the University," this course centers on two interrelated topics: language, including variations in dialects and registers and the ideologies surrounding those variations; and academic writing, including its many genres and disciplinary differences. As we read, write, and talk about these topics, we explore how writing and language can vary and what makes us consider a way of speaking "standard" or a way of writing are more "correct" or "appropriate" in university contexts than others. We then move on to apply these concepts to our campus by exploring how writing and language are used at UIUC. Each student identifies a specific aspect of writing and/or language at UIUC to focus on for their in-depth research project. They might, for example, look at the range of writing genres used within their major; compare and contrast the academic writing expectations of different teachers, classes, or majors; explore the speech or writing experiences of a particular language or cultural group on campus; or examine current trends in student language use such as texting or slang. In their research, they pull from a wide range of scholarly sources including advanced academic articles and books as well as their own original ethnographic research (interviews, observations, surveys, and/or analyses of University texts). At the close of the course, they not only will have produced a polished final research project, but they will also have the option to share their research with the wider university community through presentation and/or online publication. As part of the EUI (Ethnography of the University Initiative), this class gives them the opportunity to create original scholarly research based on their firsthand experience with people, texts, and places on campus.
