London - British Open champion Darren Clarke has pulled out of next month's U.S. Open at the Olympic Club in San Francisco because of a troublesome groin injury.
"I am extremely disappointed that I will be unable to play in the U.S. Open," the 43-year-old Northern Irishman said in a statement released by his management team on Monday.
"But I have to make sure I am 100 percent ready for the British Open at Royal Lytham in July and to do that I've been advised not to play for a month."
Clarke has also had to pull out of the June 6-9 Nordea Masters in Stockholm.
He was first troubled by his groin during last month's Houston Open and it was again a problem in the PGA Championship at Wentworth.
Clarke missed the halfway cut on Friday at the European Tour's flagship event.
"I haven't been able to get through the ball properly and I don't want to take any chances," he added.
The U.S. Open starts on June 14. – Reuters

I think the big difference between the stuff and Civil War era buck and ball is that buck and ball actually worked. We know that to be a fact from the historical record. This stuff? Who knows.
Another big difference is that buck and ball would have been relatively cheap, while this stuff is frighteningly expensive.
The biggest drawback to buck and ball is its limited range compared to a rifled musket.
But, as the Irish Brigade proved at the Sunken Road at Antietam, if they could get into effective range, buck and ball was absolutely devastating.
In fact, buck and ball features prominently on the monument to the 12th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry at Gettysburg.

I recently purchased a 4" S&W 686+ for a woods/HD/target/plinking gun and I love this gun. I dithered over whether to get the 4" or 6". My son has a 6" S&W 686 and to me it was just too muzzle heavy. In my hand the 4" is much better balanced. The 4" is also easier to carry and deploy in a woods role when hiking and fishing here in the Wyoming mountains. For me the 4" was the right choice. A curiosity is that with my 686+ I shoot tighter groups one-handed than two-handed.
I always ask if it is okay to dry fire. I haven't been told "no" yet but I don't abuse the permission by dry firing an excessive number of times. I think that if I was told "no" I would respond that I want to try the trigger before I buy and if you won't let me dry fire then I'll have to go somewhere else where they will and spend my money with them.

Kate Hovey, illus. by Blair Drawson. S & S/McElderry, $17.95 (40p) ISBN 0-689-82901-9
This oversize volume addresses a narrow audience-sophisticated and skilled adolescent readers who remain open to picture books-but it offers those readers profound satisfaction. Debut author Hovey reworks the myth of Arachne in elegant rhymed verse, writing mostly in Arachne's voice but also in the voice of Athena. Relegating explanatory information to an appendix, the poet presumes a certain familiarity with the myth: Athena, the patron goddess of weaving, punishes Arachne for her hubristic pride in her weaving skills by turning her into a spider. Arachne speaks to her spider descendants in consistently dramatic, imagistic verse. She commands them: "Cast to the four winds/ my story's thread-/ let truth spread/ like gossamer from your abdomens/ across the fields of time!" Distinctly modern in its sympathy for Arachne's pride in her self-taught achievements and for her lack of respect for the gods and goddesses, this version will likely resonate with adolescents. Drawson's (Flying Dimitri) art, not particularly well-represented in the off-putting cover illustration, reconciles Hovey's contemporary interpretation of a classical subject with a visual approach that quotes classical motifs but uses stylish perspectives and emphasizes-if not exaggerates-the figures' emotions. The result is a bit eerie and, sometimes, surreal, as in a view of Arachne as a spider, with eight human limbs attached to a face that appears human but for its eight eyes. Together, art and text successfully challenge the boundaries of myth, stimulating readers to explore anew its proven terrains. Ages 12-up. (Feb.)

LA COSTA -- It was business as usual on the field for the La Costa Canyon High softball team Tuesday afternoon, even though there was a major setback off the field.
The Mavericks defeated ninth-ranked Mt. Carmel 5-1 in an Avocado League contest at home. They did that after forfeiting 10 games for using two ineligible players most of the season, La Costa Canyon coach Mike Hill said.
The two players -- one a starter --- played in three coed,slow-pitch recreational league softball games with theirclassmates. That violates a new CIF rule that states athletescannot participate in a sport outside school during the samesport's high school season.
Its purpose is to keep players from a competitive advantage. In the past, players would practice and play for club teams on the weekends.
"We are getting the death penalty for petty theft," Hill said. "What about the spirit of the rule? Playing slow-pitch softball with a 12-foot arc actually hurts your swing."
The two players, both seniors, are ineligible for the rest of the season.
Even though the Mavericks (9-17, 2-3) will have a poor record at the end of the regular season, Hill expects to be in the CIF Division I playoffs. A postseason seeding committee will notice they are a good team, and La Costa Canyon reported itself when the infractions were discovered.
"We are not trying to hide anything," Hill said.
The Carlsbad football team set that precedent this past fall when the Lancers forfeited three games but still made the playoffs. The El Camino girls basketball team was in a similar situation in the winter but didn't advance. That sport uses computerized power rankings to set the postseason brackets, and El Camino's record would have thrown off the computer.
"Wins and losses don't mean anything to me," Hill said. "Those players had their senior seasons ruined, and they've been with the program for four years. They weren't even travel-ball players. I feel really bad for them."
The Mavericks responded against the Sundevils (15-7, 4-1) by pounding out nine hits, led by Jace Williams. She doubled in two runs and scored twice. Kristina Barr and Brandy Bucher had two hits each.
"We realized we are going to come back from this," Williams said. "We are just practicing hard, and we have nothing to lose. We came out here with confidence."
A four-run third inning, another stellar performance from pitcher Jessica Smith (8-0) and error-free defense kept Mt. Carmel from making it a close game. Allison Masingill's pinch-hit single in the fifth inning scored Vanessa Soto for the Sundevils' lone run.
"We had an off day," Mt. Carmel coach Brandy Chavez said. "We keep telling our kids about adjustments. And we will adjust."

YOUTH clothing company American Apparel have unveiled their latest lingerie model - a 62-year-old woman.
In an update to their 1.5 million Facebook fans, the clothing retailer posted a picture of model Jackie O'Shaughnessy with the caption "Sexy has no expiration date. Jackie in Floral Lace Lingerie."
O'Shaughnessy has modelled for American Apparel for two years, but up until now had never done a lingerie shoot.
The model had previously told Fashionista that she was discovered on a Manhattan street by a talent scout from the retailer at the age of 60.
"I found a spot on the stoop and sat there smoking in my puffy winter coat and a woman walked by and said, 'You look so regal sitting there smoking that cigarette.' I said, 'Well, I don't think most people would agree with you these days.' And she answered, 'It's not the cigarette. You're just beautiful,'" O'Shaughnessy said.
There's no denying O'Shaughnessy looks fantastic, but is this a genuine show of diversity from American Apparel, or a publicity stunt?
On the Facebook post, the retailer provides a link (NSFW) to the lingerie section of their website - click through and you'll see no trace of O'Shaughnessy; in her place are dozens of pictures of very young models.
In recent months, the retailer has come under fire for a range of provocative stunts - from displaying shop window mannequins with pubic hair, to selling T-shirts with graphic depictions of menstruating vaginas.
American Apparel would have no shortage of models should they want to expand their roster of older stunners - earlier this month model Christie Brinkley, who turns 60 on Sunday, made headlines worldwide with her age-defying look.

It happens every year around this time like clockwork. The fall season marches closer and closer and Hip-Hop prepares for one of its most significant and darkest days: September 13th. Nearly 15 years after taking his last breath in a Las Vegas hospital, the life and times of Tupac Shakur has been dissected by every medium known to man, including TSS.
That is, every medium except ESPN, until now. On September 7th, exactly 14 years to the day he was shot, the network will air One Night in Vegas as a continuation of their 30 For 30 series. The Reggie Bythewood directed piece will focus not only on the shooting which occurred mere hours after Mike Tyson's destruction of Bruce Seldon, but more importantly on the brotherhood type bond the two shared. If executed correctly, this installment has the potential to find itself along with The Two Escobars, Without Bias and The U as some of the series' gems. I'm excited to see this. On one hand, I'm a big Pac fan so it's not like I wouldn't watch it to begin with. On the other, the world doesn't need another documentary on his death or the impact his life had on others. It's been done before and I don't see anything topping Tupac: Resurrection.
I have, however, always been intrigued by the relationship Pac and Mike had. They were two of the 90s most rebellious entities who both happened to be bonded by struggle. It's even crazier when you realize they were convicted for basically the same crime. Aside from scenes from documentaries and the occasional interview, much still isn't known about the two's friendship.
"He looked very destructive. He came across as a world beater," Tyson said. "As far as his music was concerned, his presence and his energy … the word I'm looking for is fearless. He came across as fearless. When you come across somebody that's fearless, you're a little bit in awe. You're like. 'Whoa!' He's ready to blow, too, at any moment; very volatile. He's very focused. He can go from one second to the next and get very focused."
The fact that it will be told largely from Mike's perspective only sweetens the pot. Looking back, the two were at identical points in their respective careers on September 7th, 1996. They were fresh off prison bids with a captivating similarity attached to their brands—both largely shunned upon by mainstream society for their controversial pasts—but desperately needed in their fields' artistic futures. The two were stuck with the near impossible task of moving forward with so many outside forces promoting immaturity. If anyone understood what Pac meant when he screamed "me against the world," it was Iron Mike.
Pending Bythewood accurately depicts this, many (who never took the time to) will learn something about Tupac Shakur and Mike Tyson they didn't know before. They weren't just thugs. They weren't just looking for trouble at every turn. They weren't just two entertainers from the ghetto. They were icons.
Presented by Cadillac, ESPN's One Night In Vegas premieres Tuesday September 7th, 2010 at 8PM on ESPN.

It's been a tough year to be the coach of a spring sport. With the weather keeping nearly everyone inside for over a month now, few coaches have been able to get their team into their natural environment to see what they are working with.
It would be a tough start to a season for any coach. But for a first-year coach, it seems especially menacing.
Yet, Mary Libbesmeier, the new head varsity softball coach, is quick to talk about the positives of being stuck inside.
Libbesmeier, an adapted physical education teacher, is in her first full year with the district after being a long-term sub the year prior. Before that she worked as a teacher and junior varsity softball coach at Buffalo High School. And before that she was at St. Cloud Tech where she taught and coached, including three years as the ninth grade coach and four as the Tech varsity softball coach.
She's already enjoying her time in Monticello, attributing many of the positives of being inside to the "luxury" of having the big field house.
"We've been able to accomplish a lot of things inside," said Libbesmeier. "I'm getting to know the players a little more on a personal level."
Those players are learning what it's like to play varsity softball for Monticello at the same as Libbesmeier learns how to coach Monticello softball. With nine seniors graduating from last year's team, there are only two returning starters.
"We're basically looking at a brand new defensive lineup," said Libbesmeier.
But for a coach who cares greatly about defensive effort, remaking the defense is an enjoyable task.
"We've been able to try different positions," she said. "I like to take pride in our team defense."
Defense is one of Libbesmeier's focuses as a coach. Another is fundamentals.
"I strongly emphasize proper fundamentals and technique," said Libbesmeier, adding that her teams play what she considers typical softball style, meaning playing small ball and advancing runners.
Another item that the new coach takes pride in and puts a focus on is communication. Having open lines of communication both between players and between the coaching staff is a huge step toward success, according to Libbesmeier.
So far, she has gotten plenty of practice communicating with her fellow spring coaches, as well as Athletic Director Gary Revenig, as the coaches try to balance this hectic spring schedule.
"[The other] spring coaches have been awesome to work with," said Libbesmeier. "And Revenig has done a great job. The entire staff has just been wonderful."
Speaking of staff, while she is still working to find out what she has in a team, she has a staff that has some familiarity with the team, and maintains continuity.
Jeff Houselog remains on as the assistant varsity coach and Melissa Gaulrapp is still the junior varsity coach.
"It's great to have them back," said Libbesmeier. "It's been a nice asset to have."
Coaching ninth grade this year is Paula Adamski. The Magic also added a fifth coach this year, Jessica Miller, who like Libbesmeier (a four-year starter at St. Cloud State University), is a former college player.
Miller, who will help a little at all levels, has been "a great addition."
But even with some continuity on the staff, a new roster and a new coach has Libbesmeier unsure of what to expect in her first year.
"We've been in one game situation so far," said Libbesmeier, referring to an early April scrimmage. "I'm not quite sure where we really stand right now."
Answers to that question will likely come soon. If the forecast holds, Monticello is scheduled to begin their season with a home game against Bemidji Friday at 5 p.m. That will be followed by the Magic hosting a four-team tournament Saturday morning, beginning at 11 a.m.
New softball coach is ready to get going
It's been a tough year to be the coach of a spring sport. With the weather keeping nearly everyone inside for over a month now, few coaches have been able to get their team into their natural environment to see what they are working with.

"Dick Inskeep was a great publisher," said Craig Klugman, longtime editor of the Journal Gazette. "He understood the importance of a free press, and a press that can speak truth to power and can keep citizens informed."
Klugman said the Journal Gazette staff will carry on that tradition as it moves forward.
Inskeep also was very "plugged in" to the community, Klugman said. Along with being involved in many community organizations, Inskeep also started The Journal Gazette Foundation in 1986, which Klugman said has given more than $10 million over the years to local organizations and causes.
Born Aug. 25, 1924, in Bluffton, Inskeep graduated from Rock Creek High School in Wells County in 1942 and Indiana University in Bloomington in 1950.
In 1949 Inskeep married Harriett Simmons, a niece of Virgil M. Simmons, who was co-publisher of the Journal-Gazette with James R. Fleming. Inskeep began working at the paper that same year, and over the next two years worked in every department at the newspaper.
Virgil Simmons died in 1958, and when Fleming died in 1973 Inskeep was named publisher.
On Jan. 1, 1997, he retired from his job as publisher, and his daughter, Julie Inskeep, succeeded him as Journal Gazette publisher.
However, he continued to serve on the board of Fort Wayne Newspapers, the business agent for the Journal Gazette and its competitor, The News-Sentinel, which is owned by Wheeling, W. Va.-based Odgen Newspapers. He also remained president of The Journal Gazette Co., which owns investments and funds The Journal Gazette Foundation.
Richard Inskeep's contributions to journalism were recognized in 1991 when he was inducted into the Indiana Journalism Hall of Fame. In December 2006 he received the First Freedom Award from the Hoosier State Press Association. The group created the award in 1978 to recognize service and commitment to freedom of speech.
In 2009, the Allen County Bar Association honored him with a Liberty Bell award. The award is given each year to a non-lawyer who is recognized for community service that strengthens the American system of freedom under law. His wife, Harriett, won the award in 1990.
Inskeep was known for more than his contributions to journalism. He also will be remembered for his involvement in higher education, especially his work on behalf of Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne and Indiana University.
"Dick Inskeep was a champion of higher education and a loyal and generous supporter of Indiana University and IPFW," said Irene Walters, executive director of University Relations and Communications at IPFW. "He advocated for higher education in our city, our state, and throughout the country in his role as national president of the Indiana University Alumni Association."
He was a member of the IPFW Foundation, Walters said, "and brought high standards for service and integrity to every endeavor he undertook."
He was awarded an honorary degree from Indiana University through IPFW in 2006 and the Broyles Medal in 2003, Walters said. The Broyles Medal is awarded for unique and significant contributions to IPFW from an IU graduate. Harriett Inskeep won the award in 1978.
The Inskeep Library inside the DeVault Alumni Center at IU is named for Richard and Harriett Inskeep.
He served on the board of directors of the Memorial Coliseum and the President's Council of Indiana University Bloomington.
He had served as a YMCA/Central Branch board member, chairman of major gifts for the Metro YMCA Building campaign and was a member of the United Way board of directors. He also was a board member of the Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce and Fort Wayne Philharmonic.
Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana named him to the Greater Fort Wayne Business Hall of Fame in 1998.
More Information
County Commissioners' statementWednesday afternoon, the Allen County Board of Commissioners issued the following statement regarding the death of Richard Inskeep, longtime publisher of the Journal Gazette:
"Richard Inskeep was a talented and committed journalist who cared deeply for Allen County, Fort Wayne and the northeast Indiana communities his newspaper covered. His paper never shied away from taking positions on a variety of local and state issues, and he would steadfastly lead the defense of the paper's opinions. He left his mark on his profession in this state with the establishment of various scholarships for students interested in pursuing a career in journalism. He will also be remembered for creation of The Journal Gazette Foundation and his community involvement and activity on boards and organizations, including the Memorial Coliseum board of trustees. Our prayers and deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends during this time of loss."

I'd like to do an artistic project using old house keys.?
I haven't seen anything definitive either way, and personally I'm not worrying about it. But you MAY want to avoid using old keys where they can come into contact with food or where toddlers might be tempted to suck on them or put fingers into mouths after handling them. (Small bodies, and developing brains, are more vulnerable.)
Having said that: As a part-time locksmith I've got a pile of retired keys which have accumulated over the years. When it eventually gets big enough, I may bring 'em in for recycling. But I do like the idea of doing something creative with them.
One possible idea: I have seen some mosaics made out of old keys set in grout. The ones I've seen were geometrics, but it might be really interesting to try to use the shadings and textures of the keys to create an image. (Me being me, I'd lean toward an image which somehow referred to the history of locks, but of course I'm obviously biased.)
Might be possible to do something similar but freestanding by silver-soldering the keys together (with a support frame). Or building them into a stained-glass-like matrix, though of course they wouldn't transmit light. (Reflect, maybe, if polished.)
Anyway, that's one possible direction. I'm sure there are others.
When you come up with something, please post photos -- I'm curious about what this project will turn into!
It's probably worth trying a few websearches for "key art" to see what turns up.
presenting only one to view every 12.5 minutes during
light on the display room wall.
I'm going to be watching to see if someone has an idea I might use too.

In the ancient times, kite flying to large extent had gratified men's subconscious desire to fly in sky like. Flying an object in the land of clouds and controlling it with a string held on earth and the floating movements of the kites in the wind have stimulated men's imagination in ages.
Not many props are required for the sport. Only a single individual can enjoy the game. But numerous people too can participate in a contest. Generally made of paper, silk or other thin materials, the kites come in various shape and size. The light framework is generally made of slim bamboo sticks.

Vincent Oliver is back with a new EP. Rather than doing the same ol`one sheet, we thought it more fun to hear a bit from the man himself:
'BUCKETS OF HEN'S FEATHERS':The title of the track is something my mother says when she burns her finger or something but doesn't want to swear. When you do gigs far from home you meet lots of people. Girls. This song is about the trouble that girls have [being intimate] when I'm leaving the next morning.
'I WANT IT ALL'I was lying on the couch at my parent's house watching some [rubbish] on the TV at 4 or 5 in the morning when this melody/lyric popped into my head. I was getting extremely frustrated that I wasn't in the biggest place doing the most dramatic thing with the best people. I have such an appetite. I was meant to re-write it but i didn't.
'HER DOORBELL'The sole sound source for this piece is a recording of the doorbell at number 6 Beverley Road, New Malden. It was recorded by Ol- ivia, She had been a good friend of mine for a few years, but I'd only recently started [being intimate]. The piece inadequately and awkwardly tries to reflect what it was like standing on her doorstep when I was waiting for her to answer.
'CLUODS IN THE HAED'I found life a terrible struggle when I was young. I used to fantasize about being diagnosed with something terrible. Then I'd find out that I'd actually been coping pretty well, considering.
"..by all accounts Vincent Oliver is a name you should remember and perhaps bandy about if that's what you like to do – ..For a first time release this is really on a very accomplished and thoughtful level. Well deserving of it's beautiful packaging, this is a gentle epic that will whip up a quiet storm." Warpmart, UK.
"Vincent Oliver creates kaleidoscopic music with touches of irony and full of purity that subtly reference a variety of inspirations" Trax Magazine.
"…Vincent Oliver puts forward a fluid intelligent electronica which will garner him respect from established artists" Popnews, France.
"…an insanely beautiful sound comparable to Slowdive's Alison or the finest moments of Ulrich Schnauss. A fabulous start for a strange series, recommended." Boomkat

IntroductionIntel Pentium 4 570J 3.8GHz LGA775 CPU
I reckon it's fair to say that Intel is really up against it in the high-end enthusiast sector right now. The fabled Prescott-based Pentium 4 promised much but has been something of a performance letdown, if we're completely honest. Intel started of 2004 with the launch of a 3.4GHz Northwood processor that kept reasonable performance parity with AMD's Athlon 64 3xxx line. We're now at the end of '04 and Intel's fastest P4 clock speed is only 3.6GHz, and that's only available in Prescott LGA775 flavour. Meanwhile, in the same time, AMD has launched a succession of S939 processors that are currently headed by the impressive FX-55.
To make matters worse for Intel, its Extreme Edition line, which is in direct competition with AMD's FX, seems to be floundering at around 3.4GHz. A recent chipset move to 1066MHz FSB did little to appease enthusiasts' desire for better all-around performance. To continue this maelstrom of discontent, plans for a 4GHz LGA775 Pentium 4 were dashed as Intel decided that its future desktop processors should provide more performance per clock cycle, most likely achieved by using dual cores and higher levels of on-chip cache. The excellent Dothan-based Pentium M has also been put forward as a likely performance CPU. In short, Intel's realised that the present single-core Pentium 4 doesn't have a great deal of clock headroom left in it.
A 4GHz single-core model will never see the light of day but that hasn't stopped Intel from quietly slipping in a 3.8GHz model today. We were fortunate enough to take a Pentium 4 570J for a review spin. It's evidently Intel's last hurrah to clock speed as the single most advertised factor in evaluating processor performance. That's precisely why the company has already moved on to a an AMD-like numbering system. Even at this early juncture, I can tell you that the 3.8GHz CPU ships with a couple of new features that are being introduced to the rest of the 5xx range. Read on to find out just what they are and how it performs.

"Quick start Kit with Mural came out beautiful, I was impressed!"
Jennifer from St.Petersburg
"Overall, this is a great product! Very easy to set up and also very easy to re-pack after use. The only (slight) downside was that the side panels came off their magnet strips occasionally (I think they are a bit heavy for the strength of the magnets). Also, we thought this would be one full stretch fabric piece, but in actuality, it's four strips of heavy-duty laminate held in place by magnets. That's not a negative, just hard to tell from the photo. All in all, we were very happy with this package (and it's a great value for the cost!)"

FOXBORO, Mass. — As always, it's never dull when the Patriots are on the clock. Bill Belichick proved it again during the three-day draft, selecting tackle Nate Solder in the first round, keeping the first pick of the second round to select cornerback Ras-I Dowling, using back-to-back picks on running backs, shocking the world by picking quarterback Ryan Mallett in the third round, jumping on the value of offensive lineman Marcus Cannon in the fifth round and pulling off two trades to get him into the first and second rounds of next year's draft.
There's no shortage of topics to discuss, so let's kick it off with a special Sunday edition of the Patriots mailbag. Thanks for your questions, and if you've got more, stop by later in the week to participate in Friday's mailbag.
With Nate Solder's athletic ability and his past as a tight end, can you see him bringing something more than line play to the red-zone offense? Do you see him lining up as an eligible receiver and becoming the Mike Vrabel of the goal line? Also, has Da'Quan Bowers played with this knee problem his whole career? To go from the possible No. 1 pick to out of the first round without character issues is rare. Go UMass.
With Solder's 6-foot-8 frame, he could definitely be an asset in that fashion, and that's something Belichick obviously likes to do at the goal line. However, tight end Rob Gronkowski is already a huge asset in the red zone, evidenced by his 10 touchdowns as a rookie, so the Patriots don't need to get overly gimmicky with Solder.
Bowers is believed to have a degenerative condition that will only continue to worsen through the rigors of an NFL lifestyle. If teams think he'll be useless after a certain point in his career — whether it's one year or four years down the road — they'd prefer to develop a player who could reach his potential by his third or fourth season and continue improving from there. Plus, Bowers could be more likely to get nicked up, and one bad knee injury could conceivably end his career at any point.
Like every good Pats fan should, I've learned not to question the draft guru that is Bill Belichick, but passing on Mark Ingram was a bit of a surprise. Let's not forget, he holds the 2009 Heisman Trophy. That being said, what potential do you think BenJarvus Green-Ellis has as the feature back of the Pats in seasons to come? Had a great season last year. No denying that, but you need consistency. Your thoughts?
–Pats fan in NY
Green-Ellis' teammates think he's got the potential to reach 1,200-1,400 yards as a primary back, and he has steadily improved each season with an obvious spike in 2010. They know what they've got in Green Ellis — a strong worker, hard runner and dependable ball carrier whose last (and only) fumble came in high school.
I understand the interest in Ingram, but it's not like he was head and shoulders above the other backs in the class. If that was the case, he would have been a top-ten pick. He'll be a good back with 1,000-yard potential, but that doesn't mean he warrants a first-round pick, as proven by the undrafted Green-Ellis.
Seventeen players surpassed 1,000 rushing yards in 2010. Three of them — league leader Arian Foster, Green-Ellis and LeGarrette Blount — went undrafted, and another (Peyton Hillis) was drafted as a fullback. Six of the 1,000-yard rushers were first-round picks.
The Patriots drafted two good backs who will complement each other well. Shane Vereen is the elusive runner who can excel in open space and the passing game, and Stevan Ridley is the power back who will spell Green-Ellis in those situations.
Belichick doesn't like to put a lot of responsibility on one running back due to the injury risk at the position, and that had to have been part of the reason he passed on Ingram, who has knee concerns. Since the Patriots held a private workout with Ingram, they were obviously comfortable with letting him go to another team.
Why not Anthony Castonzo instead of Solder? Most analysts feel he is NFL ready, and Solder is a work in progress.
It's a good question, and the consensus is Castonzo was definitely more NFL-ready than Solder. My belief is the Patriots believe Solder has a higher ceiling than Castonzo. I also believe Matt Light will be back for another season, and that will afford the Patriots the luxury of developing Solder before thrusting him onto the field. I like the Solder pick, especially if they retain Light.
Is there any word about why Mark Herzlich went drafted? He seems like a Belichick type of guy in the linebacker position. Also, is there a chance the Pats may pick him up as an undrafted free agent and give him a shot?
–Dave E
The thinking is teams just don't believe Herzlich has gotten all the way back to his Defensive Player of the Year level. As a potential bottom-of-the-roster player, he'd also need to be more valuable on special teams, and I don't think he's got the necessary special teams ability at this point.
Since Herzlich will be a long-term project, I also wonder about one important thing. Since he might be best suited to play with a team's practice squad as a rookie, teams might be worried about bringing him all the way through camp, waiving him and losing him to a team that claims him. Just a thought anyway.
The Patriots could still sign Herzlich, but two things lead me to believe it won't happen.
First, he's with agent Tom Condon and CAA, and the Patriots have stopped negotiating with Condon. It will probably be a little more difficult to negotiate a contract through this process than it would have if they drafted him.
Second, the Patriots spent a seventh-round pick on TCU special teamer Malcolm Williams, who admitted he didn't expect to get drafted. Williams played very little defense in college. So, the Patriots' decision to take Williams should tell you everything you need to know about their view on Herzlich.
Obviously, it'll probably be a couple of years before Ryan Mallet is NFL-ready. But with him drafted, is Brian Hoyer's future as Tom Brady's backup quarterback in danger?
Hoyer is entering the last year of his contract, and I think he'll be solidified as the No. 2 guy in 2011. While the Patriots have enjoyed the extra roster space with just two quarterbacks in the last two seasons, it would be a huge gamble to go into the season with Mallett as the only backup. A month and a half of training camp (if the lockout permits a full camp) won't be enough for the Patriots to know what they're getting in Mallett.
Jeff, I've always been a Patriots fan but have still liked the Saints and watched some of their games, and I think that Pierre Thomas would be a fantastic fit for our system. Even though the Pats drafted two more running backs, is there any chance we could target him in free agency? Also, do you see the possibility of Tom Brady one day taking over as our head coach when Belichick retires?
Thomas was linked as one of the Patriots' potential targets when the offseason began, but he signed a four-year deal with the Saints before the lockout.
As for Brady, well, I've got to give credit for the unique question. When he's done playing, though, he's got a $20 million mansion and a supermodel wife waiting in southern California. I don't think coaching will be all that tempting of an option, considering his other alternative.
I was wondering if you could tell me why New England passed on Cameron Jordan? In my opinion, we could have traded down for Jordan and still drafted one of the top three offensive tackles. Your thoughts on our complete disregard for Belichick thinking our pass rush needed zero attention? Thanks.
–Ben Ludwig
I can't imagine the Patriots found any fault with Jordan, and it's probably as simple as they thought Solder would be the better player over the course of his career. Sure, Jordan might fill a more immediate need (if Light returns to start at left tackle), but Belichick doesn't always think year to year, instead preferring to project over the life of their contracts.
It's also possible that Belichick views Ron Brace as the guy who could be that starter if he can stay healthy and remain on pace to keep improving the way he did last season. With Mike Wright and Marcus Stroud (and maybe Gerard Warren, too) providing depth on the defensive line, Belichick might not have viewed the position to need as much of an upgrade.
The outside linebackers who went in the second and third round in the draft were a little overrated, at least in terms of draft position. I don't think there was as much value there, and I'm really not surprised he stayed away from that crop of players at that point. It might not be the popular choice, but I'm at least trying to rationalize Belichick's approach over the weekend.
OK, Jeff, appreciate your work. I believe that this will be the year (if we have a season) Jermaine Cunningham will break through as the pass rusher for our team. We can go to free agency also, but I believe that Cunningham is our guy. After all, Belichick said that he already has good talent on the roster. But then again, this just my thought. Your thoughts?
Thanks, Kyle, and I do agree that Cunningham will have a big year in 2011. He really emerged throughout his rookie season once he overcame the injury that wiped out the majority of training camp. I wouldn't expect him to be the third linebacker to reach double-digit sacks of Belichick's New England tenure, but Cunningham should continue to be excellent against the run.
If you're looking for a breakout pass rusher, don't forget about Eric Moore, a late-season addition who recorded two sacks and 13 tackles in limited reps. Belichick likes him and expressed as much Saturday after the draft.
Jeff, when the Patriots decided to draft Ras-I Dowling, did Bill Belichick think Leigh Bodden would not come through after the injury? That being said, would you think that the Patriots will have the one of the best secondaries in the NFL?
Bodden said in March he was still recovering from shoulder surgery, but he expected to be fully ready for training camp. Even still, it was a pretty serious injury, and athletes do tend to have a difficult time recovering from a torn labrum, especially if Bodden leads with his shoulder to tackle.
More than anything, Dowling should be a pretty good player, and he probably represents the future at cornerback with Devin McCourty. He's physical, a good tackler and has good ball skills like McCourty, and Patriots fans should eventually like that pick.
I don't want to rank the Patriots' secondary until later in the summer because there will be plenty of roster movement throughout the league. But with McCourty, Bodden, Patrick Chung, Brandon Meriweather and James Sanders, there's definitely a very good core of defensive backs.
The NFL Draft was the last item under contract, right? Now, there is officially no football, as of now, right? So how does free agency work if there is no program, no workouts, no nothing for that matter? Please explain this a little to me. You would think they are bound to come to an agreement soon, right? I mean, aren't they technically losing money already by not having a plan?
–Tom Bouchard
The NFL lockout is in effect until the Eighth Circuit rules on a permanent stay, and that ruling will come early this week. If the stay is granted, the lockout will run through the owners' appeal of the preliminary injunction, which could run another month or two. And if the owners win that appeal, the lockout will remain until the two sides agree upon a CBA.
If the permanent stay is not granted this week, the NFL will reopen its doors like it did Friday before the temporary stay was put in place. That means players can work out at team facilities, and coaches can set up schedules for organized team activities and offseason camps.
The NFL will then decide when to start the league year to allow free agency and trading. This will be in place through the owners' appeal of the preliminary injunction. If the owners win that appeal (as said above), the lockout will be in place until a CBA is reached. If the players win the appeal, the 2011 season will happen in full, and the two sides can negotiate a CBA on the side.

The Ontario Institute for the Education of the Blind
Currently called the W. Ross McDonald, this facility was opened in 1872. In 1913 the name was changed to The Ontario School for the Blind and in 1972 to the current name.
In about 1979, Mrs. Margaret Chandler, a teacher at the school , documented the history of the school in her book, A Century of Challenge. in it, she has included an April 5th 1872 Brantford Expositor news paper article, which gives the details, of the building's design and construction.
Originally, the school, was a farm school, and was therefore situated on 65 acres of land, which were farmed, by both staff and students. accordingly, there were farm buildings; including barns, and horse stables, which were built of the same white brick.

Foreign secretary William Hague has been travelling around Asia, reminding leaders that Britain should no longer be viewed as a colonial power but as an equal partner.
Speaking to an audience in Singapore last week, he said: "Today our leaders and our people approach Asia in a wholly different spirit to the past – with a sense of equal partnership, respect and the desire to see opportunity and development for all."
Britain is targeting almost 30 countries it sees as "new powers of the 21st century", of which 11 are in Asia. Hague is looking to increase bilateral trade with China, India, Vietnam, Indonesia, South Korea and Malaysia in the next few years.
To support this initiative Britain is to open eight new embassies across Asia by 2015, one of the few Western powers to expand its footprint while other nations face financial pressure to scale back their diplomatic networks.
As part of the expansion, Britain will reopen an embassy in Laos while setting up a new "British interests office" in Myanmar, now that sanctions have been lifted.
The Foreign Office will add more than 140 staff to its Asian diplomatic postings, mainly in China and India. But it is not just concentrating on the world's most populous countries.
Mr Hague added: "Too often in the past there has been a tendency to overlook smaller nations in favour of the large." This was a hint that economies such as Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia were also on the radar screen for British diplomatic expansion.
To fund eight new embassies, six consulates and to send diplomatic staff to more 20 countries the Foreign Office will be closing some small consulates in Europe.
Cutbacks are also expected to be made in Afghanistan and Iraq once conditions allow.
A former employee of the British High Commission in Singapore said: "This is a part of a strategic shift away from Europe to Asia where Britain's long-term interests lie, so this was to be expected.
"There was previously talk of diplomats becoming more mobile and moving across the world to hot spots and where tourist numbers are high, without the need for an embassy. That would make more sense to me, so diplomats can move where they are most needed."

There's a new version available at http://www.dunslane.net/~andrew/Initdb_In_C.html - I think it takes care of all of Peter's comments. I removed initdb-scripts.h - the smaller scripts were moved into initdb.c with SQL comments turned into C comments, and the large script to set up system views becomes its own file, which is now passed to postgres with single line mode turned off. I have just realised that I seem to have skipped the bki file version check. I will fix that in the next version. cheers andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Momjian" <pgman(at)candle(dot)pha(dot)pa(dot)us> To: "Andrew Dunstan" <andrew(at)dunslane(dot)net> Cc: "Postgresql Hackers" <pgsql-hackers(at)postgresql(dot)org>; "pgsql-hackers-win32" <pgsql-hackers-win32(at)postgresql(dot)org> Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 10:07 PM Subject: Re: [pgsql-hackers-win32] [HACKERS] initdb > Andrew Dunstan wrote: > > There will be a new version out there soon.

Already the alpha pair of Denver's werewolf pack, Kitty and Ben now plan to tie the knot human-style by eloping to Las Vegas. Kitty is looking forward to sipping froufrou drinks by the pool and doing her popular radio show on live television, but her hotel is stocked with werewolf-hating bounty hunters.
Elsewhere on the Strip, an old-school magician might be wielding the real thing; the vampire community is harboring a dark secret; and the irresistible star of a suspicious animal act is determined to seduce Kitty. Sin City has never been so wild, and this werewolf has never had to fight harder to save not only her wedding but her very life.
Listen to more titles in the Kitty Norville series.

Love fantasy books, usually with a strong female character. I also enjoyed just about anything from J.D Robb I am a fan of mysteries as well. I also enjoy funny and quirky novels anything from Molly Harper is a winner in my book. Since listening to audio books is important to me while I travel I also follow certain narrators as well.
"Renewed my Vows in Vegas Right After Reading this!"
Ok, something about the name "Kitty" turned me off this book for about a year, finally I gave into to all the recommendations. I am glad I did. She is funny and so unlucky, it reminds me of Stephanie Plum in Janet Evanovich series, but much much more unlucky. I got hooked quickly and I only have one book left in the series. Each book builds on the last, and average about 7 hours a piece just enough time for Kitty to get herself in trouble and right back out of it again. This is not a deep book but enjoyable just the same. It's light at times, funny, and then serious but not so overwhelming that you can't set it down and come back to it. Its a good light read and the narrator was just perfect for the book, she tells the story in a light enjoyable way, and she has become the voice of Kitty in my mind.
Reading Raven
"A bit chaotic!"
This is a good story but it feels incomplete, like a PART I. The characters are not as developed as her other books. Kitty is still a great main character and this about her trip to Vegas to get married to Ben....add a radio show, her parents, and Vegas chaos intertwined with were-tigers, vampires, bounty hunters and a poker tournament. It just didn't flow as well as the other books but you need to read it because the next book picks up where this left off. It was OK, not great!
I Love a great supernatural tale, a Love story, PNR, a Cool Mystery and Most Sci-Fi....if there are vampires, weres or witches in it, that's a plus! Basically I am a 40+ y/o young at heart woman rediscovering the wonderful world of books and am now addicted! Lol I LOVE AUDIBLE!!!!!
"Good story!"
I would recommend this entire series to my friends, Kitty is a great heroine, she's funny, smart and a genuinely nice person...she cant help it if someones alway trying to kill her....lol
Kitty of course...
when Kitty and Ben finally get married....I was happy for her...nothing comes easy for Kitty...she deserves a happy ending!
Maybe...but I didn't.....lol
I love this series and am happy it was on sale....I bought all of them...and cant wait to read them all....Kitty is a very likeable MC....give this series a try....I highly recommend it!!!
"Ok but not the best of the series"
Not the series best
Tantalizing if a bit unsatisfying. The Long Game comes back around to tantalize us with
where the series is taking us in future books. I enjoy the relationship between Kitty and Ben. Being an attorney myself, I like Ben as a coolheaded partner to Kitty's trouble causing curiousity and frankness. This was a nice continuation of their partnership but the actual story line was a little too creepy for my taste.
Any of the number of meetings with Ben's friends in the werewolf bounty hunter convention taking place in Kitty's Vegas hotel. I enjoyed the dialogues between the werewolf pair and their natural sworn frenemies.
Ziegfried and Roy in shapeshifter/vampire Land.
I've been slowly working my way through the series and this is probably my least favorite so far. There are important elements included in the book but somehow the storyline as a whole didn't grab me so I could give it a true thumbs up. Maybe it's the Ziegfried and Roy storyline (I've always found those two a little creepy in real life, and kind of a joke) but I just didn't feel as satisfied at the end as I have with the other books in the series I've finished so far. I really like this series, the main characters, and the narrator always does a great job. Looking forward to getting more credits to spend on the 2 books I think I've missed.
"Great werewolf yarn"
I really like the Kitty Norville series. The writing is terrific. And you can't go wrong with Marguerite Gavin as narrator. She has a great voice!
"Vegas Baby!"
I didn't really have a favorite in this one. Kitty did too many stupid things, Ben was mostly AWOL, and no one else stole the show.
MG does a really good job performing Kitty; except for the occasional mispronunciation. Also, at one point she said 'Ben' when she should have said 'Dom'. Though these things are more of an editing issue.
Lions, and tigers, and werewolves, oh my.
This story revolves around a wedding. The happy couple end up in Vegas on a working/wedding holiday. There are werecats, vampires, a magician, and a hotel full of gun enthusiasts and werewolf hunters. I enjoy this series and recommend it, though there are some issues. Kitty rushes headlong into a trap without any regard to her own safety and that is just stupid. She is also running all over town even though she is being stalked by an assassin, which is also stupid. I am not a fan of story lines that include characters with cancer. Kitty's mom is undergoing chemo, but she gets the ok from her doctor to go to Vegas. Not bloody likely. Mom slaps on a wig, and she is ready to go out on the town. Give me a break.
"Not my favorite, but I can see the need for it..."
My rating: Teen (violence)
Favorite character/s: Brenda/Evan
Kitty and Ben are planning a wedding, but werewolves hate crowds.... Solution? Vegas, baby! The whole idea seems ideal, until: 1) Mom and Dad want to come along, 2) Kitty's boss wants her to do a televised radio show from Vegas, and 3) Rick wants her to deliver a message (supposedly an introduction) to the Vegas master vamp Dom. Ben agrees, as long as Kitty will let him gamble all he wants. Sexy blue wedding dress? Check! Kicky heels? Check! Sexy fiancé? Check? Mom and Dad? Check????
So far so good, and I was all in, but the storyline gets a little muddled and far fetched once they get to Vegas. (I know, I know, it's a werewolf story with vampires thrown in, it's supposed to be farfetched, right?). The problem isn't so much that we start dealing with the possibility of more "otherness", it's that so much is thrown at us at once. All in one book. All in one town, and all at the same time. Some of the story breaks down.
What happens to Ben? We find out at the end, but even that explanation is muddled by Evan's part in it. Why does there have to be an "Evan's part" to begin with? It made more sense without Evan's contribution. Don't get me wrong; I'm very glad that Evan and Brenda are in the book, and I hope they show up in other books, but the whole "what happened to Ben" part was really confusing, and I'm not sure it really moved the story except as a plot device. It was just too convenient.
Then there's the vampire Dom. He's just odd. His speech is odd, his mannerisms are odd, and his whole network is odd. Why did Rick send her to Dom? Does Rick suspect something? I hope we find out that Rick suspected something, otherwise his reasons for sending Kitty to Dom are a little...I'm not sure. I'm hoping this one works toward the long game, and wasn't just another plot device.
The Vegas lycanthrope debacle was an interesting introduction for a different supernatural development, but I wasn't as fond of the way these lycanthropes were introduced. I don't know, I guess it just put my hackles up. And there was the magician... I'm intrigued by him, and I hope he shows up in another book. I also hope we get to see what the backstory is between him and the lycanthropes in Vegas. And the priestess; I guess we'll find out more about her in another book.
That's my point though, this book wasn't that long, but the story went in so many directions, it feels like the whole story was muddled. Where was the buildup? And what about the...cliffhanger is the wrong word, but it's obviously a lead-in to another book. One of the things I really liked about these books was their standalone storylines. Not that each book doesn't need some sort of backstory after the first one, but the plots are "whole" somehow. This entire book feels more like a plot device for future books. Not that I haven't already purchased those other books, but I hope they don't turn out the same way. I really enjoyed the previous episodes, and I want to enjoy future ones just as much. I'll chalk this one up to "world building", and hope for the best.
As always, Marguerite Gavin delivers a fine performance.
"Pretty Good Installment"
Kitty's back - and getting married to her pack mate and lawyer in Vegas... if they can avoid being kidnapped by the mob, being shot at by supernatural bounty-hunters, and being sacrificed to an ancient god by feline lycanthropes. What a honeymoon!
After the very clear story arc in the first four books, I always struggle a little bit with Dead Man's Hand (I think this is my third read). Not that the story isn't good; it is. It's just that I'm not sure where it's supposed to be going. I also wonder if the first thing a new werewolf alpha would really do after a takeover is leave pack and territory.
However, this book does introduce one of my very favorite characters; Odysseus Grant. Grant is an old-style stage magician in Vegas, complete with top hat and tails and all the classic illusionist tricks like scarves and rings and rabbits in hats. But his real purpose in Vegas is a bit more interesting. Grant is a guardian, tracking old-style dark magic, like the cult of Tiamat and an old portal to a Lovecraftian realm. I would SO love some stories about Grant; he's mysterious and enigmatic and oh-so interesting. There have to be some good stories there. Vaughn writes a lot of short stories; I'll have to go scour her website to see if any of them have been about Grant.
I also like the observations Kitty makes about her relationship with Ben. She describes that love "snuck up" on them; it didn't hit them like a massive explosion. Their wolves mated first, and then their human sides came later. I really like how Vaughn writes a realistic relationship for Kitty and Ben; they fight, they aren't attached at the hip, Ben's not an "alpha" male as we see in some books--he lets Kitty be herself and do her thing. They worry about each other, but they don't limit each other. It's a really refreshing take on relationships in popular culture.
Overall, I like this book, but not quite as much as the first four. But that's okay, 'cause there are a lot more books to come. :)
Purchased. Review courtesy of onebooktwo| one book, two reviews.
I love books and love to get lost in the fantasy. I'm always looking for a new good story to bury myself in. :)
"Pretty good addition to the series :)"
3.5-4 stars
This was a pretty good story and addition to the series. Kitty and Ben are engaged and her ailing mother seems determined to guilt her into having the wedding quickly (while her mother's still around to see it...). Kitty and Ben are frustrated by the thought of all the planning and don't really want a big wedding so they decide on the plan to elope to Las Vegas to get married. When Kitty's boss finds out about the trip, he comes up with the idea for her to do a live show that's also on TV while in Vegas. Kitty's a bit frustrated over being expected to work over her wedding weekend but agrees. To placate her mother, Kitty invites her parents to Vegas for the nuptials but no one else.
Things were going to be busy enough with Kitty and Ben's wedding as well as Kitty doing her show but of course other things have to turn up to cause more issues for them. On the paranormal side; there's a magician that appears to be a decent guy but is too mysterious to tell for sure, the vampire master of the city who doesn't really seem to be master of anything, as well as a group of shifters that perform a shifter animal act in Vegas and seem to gain an unhealthy interest in Kitty. On the more mundane side of things there's still some danger since the hotel they're staying in is hosting a gun show and many of the paranormal hunters that Cormic and Ben know are there. Unfortunately, none of them are especially friendly to Kitty and a couple seem to be very interested in taking her out just for the sake of saying they did. Obviously, there's a lot of stuff going on that causes drama and danger. Kitty and Ben stumble through and manage to come out of things alright in the end and then Kitty and Ben head home married and happy to get out of Vegas.
This was a pretty enjoyable story. I still liked Kitty as a heroine but I will say that there were a few times in this book where she seemed to lack her usual intelligence and ran into trouble without thinking at all. I mean she's made some mistakes in judgement before but in this book it just seemed worse. Thankfully, she makes some friends that help her get through things alright. Overall, the story was still pretty good (even with a bit of frustration on my part) and I still liked the characters so I'd recommend it (and the series). :)
Long term book junkie only recently addicted to audio books. Now my iPod and I are inseparable.
"Kitty opts for a Vegas wedding"
I'm a big Kitty Norville fan: she's witty and brave and the books have serious content, delivered with a light touch. Normally I'm cheering for Kitty to win the day and sad that there are no more pages left to read. Yet with "Kitty And The Dead Man's Hand", I found myself going "Is that it?" and "What was Kitty thinking".
The story seemed promising enough: Kitty and Ben, already mated for life as an Alpha pair in a werewolf pack, decide to make things official in the human world and get married. To avoid the fuss of a big wedding, Kitty decides to get married in Vegas and her boss uses this as an opportunity to get her to do her radio show live on TV. He also books Kitty and Ben into a hotel that is running a gun show, complete with silver bullet carrying bounty hunter. Add in a magician who reads H P Lovecraft, a Vampire Master only interested in partying and a bizarre tribe of werecats and it should have been quite a ride.
Instead, I found it unsatisfying.
I've been to Vegas a few times, I even renewed my wedding vows there, and I thought Carrie Vaughn caught the atmosphere of the place well, so that wasn't the problem.
I think the problem was Kitty. She's on her own for most of the book for various reasons, even though she brought Ben and her mother and father to Vegas with her. She stumbles around getting into trouble and mostly waiting for someone else to get her out of it. She gives little thought to her family and only a little more to Ben. Her relationship with the BDSM-loving werecats didn't convince me. The way two of bounty hunters reacted to her was also hard to swallow. The marriage, when it did finally occur, seemed crass and narcissitically self-indulgent.
Maybe I just wasn't in the mood, or maybe I didn't get the appeal of all those bare-chested young men, but I just couldn't settle in to this book. In every other book, Kitty has grown and developed. In this book, she seems to take a holiday from herself.
Oh, and I still don't have a clue what the title means.
Anyway, I hope I get the real Kitty back in book six.

Get excited Batman fans. Batman: Arkham City is getting a prequel six-issue comic mini-series starting this May. The comic tie-in is being written by Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City architect, Paul Dini, with art by concept artist Carlos D'anda. The story will act as a bridge between the first Arkham Asylum game and the upcoming sequel, Arkham City.
The first two issues of the mini-series will double ship in May, with the rest of the issues hitting monthly. Each issue will run for $2.99 and will be available for both print and digital on the same day and date.
Additionally, there will be 8-page digital-first interludes that release between issues of the main mini-series. These digital shorts will also be written by Paul Dini, with art from a number of different artists, exploring the Dark Knight's many enemies as they "vie for power in this new city within a city" (referring to the prison city of Arkham City). Each digital short can be purchases for $0.99 digitally. They will also be made available in print when the Batman: Arkham City mini-series gets a collected edition.
"The digital first stories offer a unique incentive for fans to experience interesting and exciting stories beyond the pages in the printed comic," said Jim Lee, DC Comics Co-Publisher, "The additional pages will serve as interludes within the regular issues and won't be necessary to follow the main story of the miniseries. Fans will also be able to read these interludes in print later, when we publish the collected edition."
Last but not least, Here's your first look at the cover to Batman: Arkham City #1. (click to posterize)

City reject Corinthians' £35m Tevez bid
Corinthians are shocked that Manchester City have apparently rejected a £35 million bid for Carlos Tevez - as they claim they have had no contact from the Premier League club.
• Joorabchian claims Tevez deal close
• Corinthians offer €40m for Tevez
• Richards denies wage claim
ESPNsoccernet understands City are holding out for £50 million fee and that is the reason for them turning down the first concrete bid for Tevez this summer.
However, Tevez's agent Kia Joorabchian told ESPNsoccernet: "Corinthians have had no response whatsoever to their offer."
Joorabchian was certain when he claimed earlier on Tuesday that the Argentina striker was "close" to a return to Corinthians, the club he left in 2007 to join West Ham, that the offer would be accepted.
He said a move back to Brazil would be a "dream" for Tevez, who has stated that he would like to return to South America to be closer to his family.
"Negotiations have already begun. Corinthians are in contact with us," Joorabchian said. "His [Tevez's] dream and mine is to see him back with Corinthians. He said he has a job that does not end there, he wants to return because he has the dream of winning the Copa Libertadores.
"Corinthians have made the offer, now it depends only on Manchester City. City has to make a decision."
However, that decision now appears to have been made by the Eastlands hierarchy, with City chiefs turning down the bid as they are determined to recoup £50 million for Tevez, who cost them around £47 million when he made a controversial switch from Manchester United in 2009.
Tevez has become a City icon over the past two years and his goals inspired them to FA Cup glory last season, as well as a third-place finish and qualification for the 2011-12 UEFA Champions League.
The talismanic forward has scored 52 goals in 81 appearances for City, but has been regularly linked with a move away from the club over the past 12 months; ahead of this year's January transfer window he made and then withdrew a transfer request and again expressed his desire to leave two weeks ago.
Tevez has also previously been linked with Juventus, Inter Milan and Real Madrid but has maintained that his motivation for moving is to be closer to his daughters.
"Living without my children in Manchester has been incredibly challenging for me," Tevez said earlier this month. "Everything I do, I do for my daughters, Katie and Florencia. I need to be closer to them and to spend more time with them."
