VIDEO: Terry scores at the right end for Chelsea; Liverpool chug past Bolton; Brum claw a point against Spurs; Agbonlahor double for Villa; Rangers & Celtic win
Burnley 1 – Chelsea 2 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) (MOTD highlights here.) A sweeping attack from Chelsea tore through the Burnley backline in the 27th minute, Cole pinged a diagonal ball over to Malouda on the left, the Frenchman played the ball across goal and Nicolas Anelka was all alone to stroke home the opener. (First half highlights here.) The Clarets levelled five minutes into the second half courtesy of a wonder-touch from Steven Fletcher, the striker controlling a high ball around Alex before getting the rub of the green and finishing past Cech. With Chelsea struggling to find a winner, John Terry (who else!) forced the papers to talk about his footballing ability by powering home a free header from a Lampard corner. (Second half highlights here.)
Liverpool 2 – Bolton 0 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) (Longer highlights here.) Relief broke out at Anfield 10 minutes from the break as Liverpool took the lead against Bolton when Dirk Kuyt slid home after Insua crossed from the left and Aquilani did well to head the ball back across goal for the Dutchman. (First half highlights here.) The Merseysiders made sure of the points midway through the second half when an Insua shot took a wicked deflection off Kevin Davies for 2-nil.
Birmingham 1 – Tottenham 1 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) (Longer highlights here.) Spurs wasted another opportunity to claim three points conceding a last minute equaliser at St. Andrews. Birmingham went behind again on 68 minutes when Peter Crouch flicked on a Gareth Bale cross to Jermain Defoe, who claimed his 17th goal of the season. But in the final minute of normal time, defender Liam Ridgewell extended his side's unbeaten home run to nine games as Birmingham stay in eighth place.
Fulham 0 – Aston Villa 2 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) (Longer highlights here and MOTD highlights here.) Villa enjoyed a comprehensive first half performance as Gabriel Agbonlahor tormented Chris Smalling and then Brede Hangeland to score twice at Craven Cottage.
Wigan 0 – Everton 1 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) Luis Saha was unfortunate not to have been awarded a penalty in the first half for Everton. The Toffees eventually scored five minutes from time when Tim Cahill struck with a trademark header from a corner.
Hull 2 – Wolves 2 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) (MOTD highlights here.)Â Hull took the initiative after 11 minutes when Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink grabbed his third goal of the season. Just four minutes into the second half, a freak own goal from Anthony Gardner saw Wolves draw level but Ronald Zubar soon gave away a silly penalty and Stephen Hunt, who has been the subject of strong interest from the visitors, restored Hull's lead from 12 yards. Once again Wolves responded though as Matt Jarvis netted after 67 minutes.
West Ham 0 – Blackburn 0 (Premier League, January 30, 2010) (MOTD highlights here.) West Ham's first game at Upton Park under new ownership did not go entirely to plan as they had to hang on for a goalless draw at home to Blackburn. Morten Gamst Pedersen hit the bar and Gael Givet saw a shot cleared off the line for Rovers. The Hammers belatedly stirred with Alessandro Diamanti forcing a brilliant diving save out of Paul Robinson.
Preston 2 – Ipswich 0 (Championship, January 30, 2010) On-loan Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck scored a sensational goal in the 2-0 victory over Ipswich as the 19-year-old struck with a delightful chip in the 84th minute after substitute Neill Collins had opened the scoring with a 64th-minute header at Deepdale.
West Brom 3 – Sheffield United 1 (Championship, January 30, 2010) Graeme Dorrans opened the scoring from the penalty spot, Roman Bednar made it 2-0 at the break. Another penalty from Darius Henderson pulled the Blades back into contention, 53 seconds later Jerome Thomas secured the match for the Baggies.
Leeds 2 – Colchester 0 (League One, January 30, 2010) Jermaine Beckford opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 38th minute and wrapped up the points for Simon Grayson's men with a second 10 minutes after the break.
Rangers 3 – Falkirk 0 (SPL, January 30, 2010) A sparkling curling free-kick from Steve Davis gave Rangers the lead over Falkirk, and a sweeping attack from the Gers early in the second half saw Davis tee up John Fleck for number two. A solo stunner from Steven Whittaker, the midfielder racing through midfield and striking home with a controlled finish, wrapped up the points.
Hamilton 0 – Celtic 1 (SPL, January 30, 2010) New Danish striker Morten Rasmussen marked his debut for the Super Hoops breaking the deadlock at Hamilton in the 67th minute when the forward pounced on a loose ball inside the Accies penalty area and fired a low drive into the net.
Deportivo La Coruna 1 – Real Madrid 3 (La Liga, January 30, 2010) Esteban Granero headed Real Madrid into the lead at Deportivo. Manuel Pellegrini's side claimed a second in the first half with a goal of real quality. Kaka led the break down the left, played in Guti and the veteran midfielder backheeled (assist of the season?) for Karim Benzema to tap into an empty net. With three minutes remaining Riki pulled one back from the penalty spot but in injury time Karim Benzema completed the win from an Arbeloa cross.
Sporting Gijon 0 – Barcelona 1 (La Liga, January 30, 2010) Gijon survived an early scare at home to Barca when Zlatan hit the post following a free-kick. Barca struck on the half hour when a fantastic through-ball from Iniesta freed Pedro Rodriguez in the inside left channel and the striker drilled the ball in the near post.
Espanyol 1 – Athletic Bilbao 0 (La Liga, January 30, 2010) Espanyol captain Luis Garcia drilled in a low cross from the left to Verdu early in the second half to earn his side a hard-fought victory against Bilbao.
Bari 4 – Palermo 2 (Serie A, January 30, 2010) Goals from Leonardo Bonucci, Edgar Alvarez, a Vitor Barreto penalty and a late strike from Vladimir Koman helped Bari blitz past Palermo to revive hopes of European football. Edinson Cavani and Javier Pastore had restored belief to level the scores at 2-2 for the Sicilians, but the spot kick and late strike made the difference.
Napoli 0 – Genoa 0 (Serie A, January 30, 2010) A goalless encounter extended Napoli's unbeaten run to 15 games.
Schalke 2 – Hoffenheim 0 (Bundesliga, January 30, 2010) Schalke's fifth home win in a row kept them in the chase for the Bundesliga title and condemned Hoffenheim to their seventh game without a win. Kevin Kuranyi put Schalke ahead in the 19th minute and Lukas Schmitz sealed the latest win for the Royal Blues early in the second half.
Bayern Munich 3 – Mainz 0 (Bundesliga, January 30, 2010) Bayern had to wait until the hour mark to score against Mainz after keeper Butt missed a penalty (1st time in his career) in the first half, Robben lifted a ball into the box which Daniel van Buyten met with a header that slipped through the keeper. 15 minutes from time Mario Gomez netted Bayern's second to put the game to bed, and for the second week running Arjen Robben closed out the scoring for Munich scoring direct from a free-kick.
Monchengladbach 4 – Werder Bremen 3 (Bundesliga, January 30, 2010) Gladbach needed just four minutes to strike against Werder Bremen as the hosts made a joke out of the visitors' offside trap and Marco Reus had the easy job of scoring into an open net. Werder then suffered a miserable first half collapse as Roberto Colautti doubled the lead after 13 minutes and Raul Bobadilla made it 3-nil after 18 minutes. Bremen's star player, attacking midfielder Mesut Ozil, pulled a goal back when he slipped the ball in the near post, but Gladbach quickly restored their three goal cushion when Raul Bobadilla bagged his second, again making a mockery of Werder's backline, with only 35 minutes on the clock. A crazy first half closed out with Werder netted a second as Claudio Pizarro showed his predatory talent getting ahead of his marker and heading in a right wing cross. (First half goals here.) A late goal from Torsten Frings gave Werder hope but Gladback held on for the three points.
Hannover 1 – Nurnberg 3 (Bundesliga, January 30, 2010) Second-bottom Nurnberg took the lead at third-bottom Hannover on the half hour when Albert Bunjaku broke the offside trap and fired a left-footed shot into the net. A back-post volley from Albert Bunjaku doubled the visitors lead after the break while Jiri Stajner quickly brought the hosts back into the game with a a strike that cannoned home off the underside of the bar. A brilliant solo performance from Albert Bunjaku steered Nurnburg to a vital away win as the striker streaked past the home backline to net his hat-trick goal in the 67th minute.
Eintracht Frankfurt 1 – FC Cologne 2 (Bundesliga, January 30, 2010) Maniche gave Cologne a surprise lead at Frankfurt in the second half. Chris slammed the hosts level after Cologne had twice put in goal-line clearances fro a corner. But after a freak snow-storm hit Frankfurt the hosts conceded a late Cologne winner when Marco Russ turned a free-kick into his own net.
Hertha Berlin 0 – Bochum 0 (Bundesliga, January 30, 2010) Hertha Berlin retained their record of having not conceded a goal in 2010 but could not beat Bochum as they remain deep in trouble at the foot of the table, seven points from safety.
Montpellier 2 – Marseille 0 (Ligue 1, January 30, 2010) A fine individual goal by Karim Ait Fana just after the break put Montpellier in front, a Benoit Cheyrou og completed the win.
Monaco 3 – Nice 2 (Ligue 1, January 30, 2010) Park Chu-young inspired Monaco to victory over Nice to extend their unbeaten run to seven league matches.

Lille 1 – Lens 0 (Ligue 1, January 30, 2010) Belgium winger Eden Hazard lived up to his reputation as one of Ligue 1's most exciting players by resisting the challenge of two defenders to score Lille's winner after 23 minutes.
Nancy 1 – Lorient 0 (Ligue 1, January 30, 2010) Youssouf Hadji scored the only goal of the game five minutes before the interval to secure a win that sees Nancy climb to 12th place in the standings, two points behind Lorient, who have now lost two league games in succession.
Nacional 0 – FC Porto 4 (Liga Sagres, January 30, 2010) Porto's bit-part winger Silvestre Varela fired the visitors into the lead at Nacional from the penalty spot after having won the spot-kick after Alex committed the foul and got himself sent off. Radamel Falcao doubled Porto's lead after Varela then turned provider minutes before the break and Falcao bagged a third on the hour. Verela wrapped up the points rounding the keeper and a defender and scoring the fourth.
Benfica 3 – Guimaraes 1 (Liga Sagres, January 30, 2010) Pablo Aimar put the home side ahead on 17 minutes, Nuno Assis levelled things up at the break but Carlos Martins won the match with Benfica's second on 50 minutes and then a third ten minutes later.
AZ Alkmaar 0 – Groningen 1 (Eredivisie, January 30, 2010) AZ Alkmaar missed the chance to move up to sixth in the table after slipping to a 1-0 home defeat to FC Groningen. Tim Mavatz struck the decisive goal ten minutes into the second half as Groningen stay in ninth.

The DIY approach
If you are taking the DIY approach, there are a multitude of ways to learn about various subjects, and many are free. Seminars, webinars (seminars on the internet), free information packs, websites, magazines and newspapers will provide valuable information. The more you read, the more you will learn, and you'll find certain providers, authors, companies and philosophies that match your own way of thinking and investing.
The most important piece of advice I can give you is to never sign up for anything at a seminar, because emotions will sway your decisions and spruikers are highly trained in raising your emotions and expectations. With any of your investing or educational activities, take your time, consider the facts and do your homework before you commit to any contract or agreement with a company. Always read the information about the product, such as the product disclosure statements (PDSs), including the small print. If you can't be bothered reading the PDS you shouldn't invest in the product. Ask yourself, what's in it for them? How do they make their money? What is their motivation?
You should look for philosophical and fiscal alignment with any company or fund you invest with: any company you deal with should have your best interests in mind. For example, if a Queensland property developer just sells property on the Sunshine Coast or Townsville, then their chief motivation will be to convince you that this is the best area to invest. However, you will have a choice as to where to invest and that choice is far and wide. Do your research and make sure you understand the consequences of committing to a contract of any kind.
An independent legal opinion can be a valuable investment. It always surprises me how valuable some of the free information available to you can be. The opposite is also true, but I often find that investment magazines are extremely helpful in providing education about certain strategies or topics, and they illustrate their points well with examples or case studies that the readers can directly relate to.
I have been writing for Money magazine for many years, and I know that it is a good example. Its direct competitor Smart Investor is equally, good, and many of the property magazines also have extremely helpful articles and case studies. However, property magazines appear to be full of advertisements from spruikers of all types, so be cautious: attend a free seminar or webinar, but do your homework and exercise great prudence before you make any legal commitments.
Working with professional advisers
Many professionals also provide an array of different services to help clients like you—solicitors, accountants, financial planners, stock brokers, mortgage brokers, real estate agents, insurance brokers and many more. If you do seek help make sure you clearly articulate your needs, goals and objectives to your chosen professional. Call me cynical, but even professionals can revert to the 'what's in it for them' scenario, where they may be too enthusiastic to sell you a product or service that serves them well but is not necessarily the ideal outcome for you.
Keep focused and communicate clearly when working with professionals in any field. It's no different from working with trades people. You need to check licensing, credentials, association memberships, as well as seek referrals and get to know and trust them before making a commitment. A good place to start for financial advice, for instance, is a website called Money Smart (www.moneysmart.gov.au) to check licensing and complaints against financial services license holders.
The other word of caution is about scams. With the advancement of technology comes the ability for criminals to invent more and more elaborate means of defrauding you of your money.
The naive and trusting need to be very vigilant. A large proportion of people who are defrauded are elderly people, and many don't find out they have been defrauded until some time after the crime was committed. Please be aware and as I always say, 'There's never a silly question when it comes to your own money', so make sure you ask lots of the right types of questions when seeking financial advice. The Money Smart website has a sample list of questions to ask when you sit down with an adviser or salesperson.
Financial planners help you to achieve your goals and objectives; accountants may help with cash flow and tax; your super fund will help with saving for retirement in the most tax-effective way; a mortgage broker may help with property purchases and loans; solicitors, with estate planning; and insurance brokers with risk management and life insurance. There are also plenty of companies that can help with all of the services listed on the diagram. Sometimes using someone who can do all of these things is helpful, but just be careful of jack of all trades, master of none. You may be more likely to find the full array of services at larger firms that have many advisers and offer multiple services.

Ed Sheeran spills the beans on his Game Of Thrones cameo
The Shape Of You star is stepping out in a different direction later this year.
Ed Sheeran has revealed that he will sing in his forthcoming cameo appearance in hit TV series Game Of Thrones
It was already confirmed that the chart-topping musician would have a brief stint in the fantasy drama programme, and he has now shared that his character will be a friend of Arya Stark, played by Maisie Williams.
Ed told The Hits Radio: "I just do a scene with Maisie.
"I sing a song and then she goes, 'oh, that's a nice song'."
In March, the show's creators David Benioff and DB Weiss revealed Ed had been cast in Game Of Thrones.
They revealed they had pursued the Shape Of You hit-maker for some time because Maisie was a fan and was keen for him to appear.
The 26-year-old is following in the footsteps of fellow musicians Wilko Johnson (formerly of Dr Feelgood), Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol and Will Champion of Coldplay in having a cameo in the series.
Game Of Thrones returns in July.

Just wanted everyone involved in or interested in Mountain Run 2014 to know that I've officially submitted a written narrative concept to Volvo for the Jalopnik Film festival. Fingers crossed that they'll like it and think it has enough potential to actually throw from resources our way to help us make this into a proper car film.
As for the written concept, here's what I sent them:
Cars are a lot like people. Some are fun. Some are boring. Some are reliable. Some are a bit more high-maintenance. And just like people, many cars will give back what you give them. Treat them well, with attention, with love, and they will reward you with years of smiles and of freedom. Treat them with disregard, apathy, and malevolence and you'll soon find yourself stranded on the side of the road, staring down an insurmountable repair bill, face covered in oil like wine thrown by a jilted lover.
Surround yourself with enough cars and their owners and you'll begin to see this symbiosis visualized in more ways than one. Cars begin to reflect their owners and vice versa. Given a sufficient variety of owners, you will see a massive spectrum of just how individual cars can be- even when they're technically 'the same' as another of a like make, model, and year. Given time and a loving owner, cars are the special little snowflakes we all like to envision ourselves as.
The ways this individuality can be created varies. Some owners have more money than time and can just order parts by the pallette and take the car to a shop to have the experts make sure it's all done properly. Others, like myself, will learn how to pinch every penny and go without other things in life, just to afford that extra $20 to install a pair of brake pads that are an upgrade over the factory originals. Some have the tools and facilities to fabricate their own parts and tools. The crucible in which every car is transformed from just a VIN designation on a car lot into an embodiment of the owner's personality and preferences varies just as much as the people who drive them.
No two cars live the same life.
But back to that crucible. Just how much fire and steel are truly required to fully enjoy your car without compromising your ability to drive it safely and legally on public roads? How much money do you really need to get a grin on your face around that corner or on that long straightaway? How far is too far? How much is not enough? Which provides more of a sense of accomplishment and pride- sweating and bleeding for each and every bolt, or know that every single part was installed with absolute precision and professionalism?
How would you even begin to test such a quandary?
I think the first step would require a fair number of cars and a fair number of owners from different walks of life. The next step? An environment where the fruits of those labors can shine, but not a race track or drag strip- No, we need an environment that can be accessed by anyone, regardless of means or resources. Simplified, we need to get a bunch of different people, with different cars, modified in different ways or even stock, and place them on some of the best roads in the region to really let the labor and personalities of these snowflakes shine and reveal their strengths, as well as their weaknesses.
That sounds pretty complicated, doesn't it? Like a lot of work.
I guess it's a good thing then, that we've already done the hard part for you. In the final weeks of October, myself and over a dozen other gearheads, from every walk of life and in a beautiful variety of daily driven vehicles, everything from a decades-old Audi quattro, to a Ford SVT Lightning pickup truck, to the requisite Mazda MX-5, will head out on a 3 day excursion into some of the best roads the Blue Ridge mountains have to offer, with that same question on our tongues: just how much, if at all, do you need to modify your car to truly enjoy it on public roads, without sacrificing your finances or daily driveability?
But again, it's not just about the cars. The cars are great, sure, but they would be nothing but paperweights and museum exhibits without people to drive them and forge bonds with them. That's why we would spend a large portion of the narrative exploring the relationship between man and machine. By interviewing the owners of the cars throughout the trip, as well as seeing them interact with their cars in non-driving roles, such as roadside repairs, adjustments, spit-shining, or even just sitting back and getting a great picture, we'd help piece together just what it is that makes us care so much about these rolling masses of metal and glass.
So what's really left? Well, since we all love our cars so much, most of us have spent every last penny on them, with no money left for recording gear! A couple of GoPro's, cheap lapel mics, and crappy point-and-shoot digital cameras makes up the entirety of our film equipment. We have no dedicated camera vehicles, no thousand-dollar editing software suites, and no idea what we're doing when it comes to filming something like this, aside from a massive backlog of Top Gear episodes viewed repeatedly. And you know what?
We're not going to let that stop us.
Even if we're not able to get any further help or assistance, we're still going to do it. We're going to take what cameras we have, with our Radio Shack microphones, and we're going to film, narrate, edit, and publish whatever we can, no matter what. Not only to chronicle our adventure, but to also answer, once and for all, just how far from 'stock' is 'fun'?
Though, admittedly, it'd be pretty awesome to have a Volvo or two along for the ride.

Henderson Group shares surge after Janus Capital merger announcement
Shares in Henderson Group surged on Monday after it announced a merger with US firm Janus Capital, creating an investment titan with more than 320 billion US dollars (£247 billion) in assets under management.
The company's stock was up 12.6% in morning trading, with shares worth 261.3p each.
The deal will see the combined entity renamed Janus Henderson Global Investors and hold a combined market capitalisation of six billion US dollars (£4.6 billion).
The two firms said their "merger of equals" will see cost savings of at least 110 million US dollars (£84.7 million) a year. Henderson and Janus shareholders are expected to own approximately 57% and 43% respectively.
The companies said on Monday: "Janus's strength in the US markets will be combined with Henderson's strength in the UK and European markets to create a truly global asset manager with a diverse geographic footprint which closely matches the global fund management industry."
Henderson boss Andrew Formica and Janus chief executive Dick Weil will lead the new firm, which will apply for admission to trade on the New York Stock Exchange as its primary listing and ditch its London listing.
The deal, which still requires shareholder and regulatory approvals, has already received the blessing of Janus's largest investor, Dai-ichi Life.
The combined firm will have around 2,300 employees across 29 locations around the world, with revenues of 2.2 billion US dollars (£1.7 billion) and underlying earnings of 700 million US dollars (£539 million).
Mark Dampier, head of investment research at Hargreaves Lansdown, said: " On the face of it, the deal makes a lot of sense and the groups complement each other. Scale can help keep costs down for fund groups, allowing them to offer more competitive fund pricing, while still delivering good active performance.
"The fund management industry is polarising, with the likes of Henderson and Janus seeing the benefits of scale at one end, and smaller boutique fund management groups focusing on niche propositions at the other. Those in the middle will need to be on their game to keep up."

High prices cripple the Egyptian construction sector
The number of registered contractors in the EFCBC has plunged to an unprecedented 9,400, compared to 41,000 that were previously registered

Since the 2011 uprisings, economic fluctuations have hit Egypt's construction sector, crushed beneath a monopoly-driven hike in prices of building materials, drop in the Egyptian pound's value and rise in energy prices.
The construction sector which represents between 15% to 17 % of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) and provides up to 8 million jobs, has been facing "deterioration and continuous losses," according to Mohamed El-Sayed AboElenin, Secretary General of the Egyptian Federation for Construction and Building Contractors (EFCBC)
AboElenin emphasized that construction workers are the only labourers who have not called for sit-ins, referring to a spate of demonstrations which have been taking place since 2011 in all sectors of the economy, as workers pushed for myriads of demands.
The number of registered contractors in the EFCBC has plunged to an unprecedented 9,400, compared to 41,000 that were previously registered. "Being registered in the EFCBC means the contractor holds a licence enabling him to work legally. This decrease in the number of registered contractors means they either went bankrupt or changed careers," said AboElenin.
AboElenin pointed out that with several factors weighing down on the sector, many construction companies were compelled to halt their projects or to direct their investments to Libyan, Iraqi and Saudi Arabian markets.
Steel and cement are the two materials that have been impacted the most by the ongoing fluctuation, their prices reaching alarming levels. The latest indices from Egypt's Chamber of Commerce show that a tonne of cement currently costs EGP 600 and that of steel is valued at EGP 5200.
In February, a spike in the prices of cement was recorded by Egypt's Consumer Protection Agency (CPA) prompting it to file a complaint along with the Authority for Safeguarding Competition and Preventing of Monopoly against cement companies accusing them of leading a raise in cement prices that does not match real estate recession.
Atef Yaaqoub, president of CPA, said "prices surged by 30 percent, and cement is really a strategic product in about 95 industries."
He said the country had 16 cement factories in 2010 with a total annual production of 43.3 million tonnes, while in 2011the number of factories increased to 19 producing 44.7 million tonnes and in 2012, there were 21 factories producing 48.3 million tonnes. While this should mean an increase in supply and therefore a reasonable price, local cement prices by the end of 2012 shot to EGP 480 per tonne on average. Officials cite energy shortages and high price of foreign currency for this increase.
"The current increase in local cement prices is attributed to a rise in energy prices and workers' wages; moreover the amounts of energy provided to factories have plummeted, thus cost prices rose up," said Mohamed Hanafy, head of the chamber of building materials division at the Egyptian Federation for Industries.
He continued, "this rise in energy prices forced traders to think of using coal as a cheaper alternative and to conduct feasibility studies."
Meanwhile, Ahmed El-Zieny, head of the division of building materials in Cairo Chamber of Commerce, said the rise in cement prices is due to some factories monopolizing the industry like El-Dekheila factory which holds 80% of the entire market.
"There is absolute absence of laws and monitoring," he said.
He pointed out that in 2008 a notable boom in the construction sector was brought to a halt by the global financial crunch.
"The construction sector's woes exist since 2008 and we are waiting for the government to issue a law that can regulate the profit margin, and eradicate market monopoly," El-Zieny said.
Steel prices rose as well. Experts attributed this to the rise of the US dollar against the Egyptian pound. Hanafy said that 90% of steel raw material is imported, making the metal's price locally vulnerable to the pound's value.
Hanafy ruled out that the increase in steel and cement prices would have an impact on the prices of residential units, saying that these are mainly influenced by demand and supply, along with prices of the land itself and facilities.
"The price of steel and cement has no impact on residential unit prices, for instance in 2008 steel and cement prices were high, and residential units' prices were low," Hanafy said.
After a decree by the minister of industry and foreign trade (MIFT) in December 2012, which temporarily imposed protective tariffs on imported steel to be applied at a rate of 6.8% with a minimum of EGP 299 per tonne for 200 days, monopoly practices started to take place, El-Zieny notes.
Not only have the prices of cement and steel surged. AboElenin said that the rise in diesel prices and its shortage impact the whole sector, and EFCBC is set to hold a meeting with the Ministry of Petroleum to negotiate on providing more diesel fuel to construction companies, "but the problem is that even the ministry is out of fuel."
Adding to the financial burdens faced by the sector, construction companies have, since the 2011 revolution, been demanding that the Ministry of Finance repay money it owes them, "which at that time amounted to eight billion Egyptian pounds," said Hassan Abdel Aziz, the EFCBC head, in an interview between members of the contracting sector and Daily News Egypt. "But now the situation has gotten worse as the debt reached roughly EGP 13bn," he added.
He continued, "it's as simple as that: if contractors aren't paid the money they're owed, they can't complete their projects, and if they can't pay back money owed to banks this means they'd face legal charges."
Abdel Aziz said that the sector's problems with the ministry are not confined to the money owed. Taxes, social insurance, and other legal issues complete the list of grievances.
"The Ministry of Finance recognizes only eight billion Egyptian pounds of the owed money," said Abel Aziz.

Or, why do we, as classical educators, care so little about what modern foreign language research has to say?
The classical languages are generally taught very differently than modern foreign languages. Most people in classical education see this as a distinct plus: in addition to learning Latin, we also reap a variety of ancillary benefits inherent to deductive language study. Win-win, right?
But in the midst of all this brain-training grammar-translation study, do we actually learn Latin?
Reading about Latin education in the 19th century - the halcyon days of proper grammar-translation according to Cheryl Lowe of Memoria Press - one finds many noted classicists discussing how, after years of study, most students still couldn't just open a book and read a Latin sentence in Latin word order. They had to laboriously translate, word by word, to have any clue as to the meaning; even then, with each individual word correctly parsed and translated, they still often got it completely wrong. There was quite a lot of discussion about how to change Latin (and Greek) instruction to get better results, so that the majority of students attained some degree of actual reading ability in exchange for all their hard work.
I lurk on a list where the focus is applying modern language acquisition research and techniques to teaching Latin. List members cite firsthand experience with the low level of Latin skill achieved by the majority of their students under traditional g/t methods. In fact, they don't believe that learning Latin via a pure g/t approach trains the brain so much as it requires a brain with high cognitive ability in the first place. In other words, they say, learning Latin deductively doesn't make you smart - you had to *be* smart to successfully learn Latin via a grammar-translation approach in the first place. In their experience, only 5-10% of students - usually those gifted in math - can actually succeed in learning Latin by so-called traditional methods (they argue that teaching Latin almost entirely in the vernacular is actually an aberration compared to how it was taught for most of its history).
While I'm not sure if I fully agree with their assertion that grammar-translation study doesn't confer any brain-training benefits (though they seem to have cognitive science on their side with regard to it conferring - or more accurately NOT conferring - transferable skills; I'm not sure precisely where I stand on all that. Clearly, yes, critical thinking in a field requires significant domain knowledge; however, most people agree that "how to learn" skills, like note-taking, once learned, are applicable across many fields of knowledge. Which side of the line do the Latin claims fall? I'm not yet sure.), I've never seen anyone talk about a successful g/t program (one that conferred actual reading ability) that didn't involve a lot of Latin exposure and working in Latin (as opposed to the vernacular).
This observation dovetails nicely with modern language acquisition research (much of which is based on Krashen's five hypotheses). Some concepts pertinent to teaching Latin:
*The Input Hypothesis - A language is acquired through sufficient input that is one step beyond a learner's current level (input at i+1 for a learner at i); often referred to as comprehensible input, it should be self-selected and ideally be on a topic the learner finds intrinsically interesting. Thus they develop proficiency in the L2 almost incidentally while they are consciously learning about topics of interest. Krashen believes that generating output in the L2 has no effect on acquiring the language - input is all that matters - but other researchers disagree, variously considering output anywhere from helpful to necessary to acquire a language.
*The Acquisition-Learning Hypothesis - There is a difference between acquiring a language and learning about the language, with formal grammar study belonging to the latter and having no effect on the former ("language appreciation"), unless the grammar instruction is in the target language and the student is genuinely interested in learning the grammar. Then the grammar instruction functions as comprehensible input. (Traditional Jesuit Latin instruction would fall under this category; they utilized the direct method - striving to avoid, as far as possible, the use of the vernacular as the means by which Latin is learned - thus giving students large amounts of exposure to Latin.)
In reading threads (on the Well-Trained Mind boards) about learning modern languages, I find a lot of support for Krashen's ideas. There is a lot of emphasis about getting sufficient exposure to the L2 - at least an hour a day, if you want to achieve fluency. People talk approvingly about European schools that teach multiple languages by teaching other subjects (math, history, etc.) in the various target languages. Yet, when it comes to the classical languages, we're content to see maybe 15 lines of Latin a lesson?
We seem to forget that the classical languages are, in the end, still languages. Whether acquiring Latin confers greater benefits than acquiring another language, you still have to manage to acquire it. Research that is valid and applicable to learning modern languages is equally applicable to learning classical languages.

Latin Pedagogy and Second Language Acquisition Theory
3 comments:
Great post! A good starting place for me to develop a presentation for Latin teachers who are not sure why anyone would question the g/t approach. Thanks for your succinct clarity. It's sometimes difficult to synthesize the components of the debate into a cohesive statement.
I look forward to more on this topic from you.

Unlike most armed forces, combat uniforms and/or camouflaged pattern uniforms are rarely used in the IDF. Instead, the IDF standard uniforms comprised of cotton shirt and pants and come in single color - olive green. The design and features of these uniforms have remained largely unchanged since their introduction in the early 1960's. Further, they are general-purpose garments, used for both work and combat functions, and with regular units and special forces alike.
In the 1950's and 1960's camouflaged pattern uniforms were more commonly used in IDF, particularly with SF units. However, in the 1970's most of these uniforms were taken out of service partly to do a standardization process and partly to prevent friendly fire incidents. However, few SF units continued limited usage of camouflage pattern uniforms for deployment.
In the mid 1990's, following the continuous conflict in South Lebanon, the IDF placed in an increase focus on personal camouflage resulting in usage of camouflaged pattern uniforms by SF units for deployment and OPFOR simulations. These uniforms are typically issued in desert and woodland patterns, and most of them are U.S. Military surplus provided to the IDF at little or no costs.
In recent years IDF SF units have been issued with new combat uniforms. Unlike the current general-purpose uniforms, these uniforms are specifically designed for combat and to be worn under body armor or vests. Modeled after the renown Crye outfits, these uniforms are made of durable ripstop materials and feature dedicated pockets, zipper collar, adjustable Velcro closures, removable knee pads and other typical combat uniforms features.

College basketball coaching legend Bobby Knight is reportedly going to endorse Donald Trump at a rally in Indiana on Wednesday.
Knight successfully guided the Indiana University Hoosiers to three NCAA national titles, as well as several other Final Four appearances, during the 1970s, '80s and early '90s.
After Trump's victory in New York last week, the candidate told supporters at a rally in Rhode Island Monday that he would be traveling to Indiana on Wednesday, "I'm going to get Bobby Knight, I hope. I would love to get Bobby Knight, the great basketball coach from Indiana. He's an amazing guy."
Advertisement - story continues below
"Meanwhile, Knight, who is known for once throwing a chair during a game, has been talking up Trump for months, including when he was on speakerphone with Trump while a New York Times reporter was in the room. "No one has accomplished more than Mr. Trump has," Knight said in the article that was published last September.
TRENDING: Cowboys' Jerry Jones to NFL Boss Roger Goodell: 'I'm Gonna Come After You With Everything I Have'
Both Trump and Knight are known for their strong, Type-A leadership styles, and both unsurprisingly are fans of World War II Gen. George S. Patton. Knight, like Patton, was ultimately dismissed, due to his at times explosive personality.
Knight was admitted to the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1991. Before taking the position at Indiana, Knight was head coach at West Point, where he would coach future Hall of Famer Mike Krzyzewski ("Coach K") of Duke University.

The latest polling shows a comparatively tight race in the Hoosier State compared with recent contests, with Trump leading Cruz by 6 points.

Rock Hill, York County, South Carolina, USA - A woman knew something was in her attic when she heard a thump and then saw some nails start popping out from her bedroom ceiling one night.
Tracy, a mother of five, thought it might be an animal. She is also quoted to have said she thought "there was some poltergeist stuff going on."
She sent her older sons and nephew to check it out... And what they found was surprising.
It wasn't an animal, it was the woman's ex-boyfriend!
He came down from the attic without any explanation and left with a smile before police could arrive.
The man had been living in the attic for about two weeks, having been recently released from jail.
"He had packed all the old coats and jackets into the heating unit and was sleeping in the heating unit," said Tracy, who did not reveal her last name.
There were also large plastic cups containing human waste, which explain how he relieved himself in his rooftop hideaway.
Tracy's nephew is quoted to have said the man was able to peek through an air vent in the ceiling of the woman's bedroom.
"It got me flabbergasted," she told the newspaper. "How can you look at someone through an air vent?"
Another mystery is how the man got in and out of the attic because the only access is through the lower level of the house.
She and the man had dated for about a year twelve years ago, she says. Tracy had called it off after he became involved in petty crime.
He helped her install some doors in her house about a year ago and that was the last she saw of him — until she saw him come down from her attic.
Tracy has changed her locks, but her children are still afraid to sleep in their bedrooms.
She hopes the man is located and charged with a crime.
"I want him to be charged with it," she says. "It could be somebody else he does the same thing to, but she might not be so lucky."

A PRIMARY school has demonstrated its on-going commitment to the health and well-being of pupils by launching a second walking bus.
The "bus", which is sponsored by Endeavour Housing and bakers Greggs, brings around 25 children to St Cuthbert's RC Primary School, in Hartlepool, every day from a breakfast club based at the Belle Vue Centre in the town's Kendal Road.
The school's other walking bus brings in pupils from the Oxford Road area.
Headteacher Jo Wilson said: "As a school, we have a strong commitment to promote a healthy lifestyle to our pupils.
"We fully appreciate the many health and safety benefits of children walking to school regularly and we are delighted to have been able to launch a second walking bus."
The walking buses are also just one element of the school's wider healthy lifestyles strategy that involves pupils playing a leading role in planning a range of initiatives.
Robert Snowball, Hartlepool Borough Council's sustainable travel officer, said: "Walking regularly is good for children's health and helps to ease traffic congestion outside schools." Schools wanting more information about launching a walking bus can contact Mr Snowball on (01429) 523829 or firstname.lastname@example.com

One proven way to prevent and treat eye problems is with herbal supplement because of its efficacy and has no side effect to the body. One herbal supplement you can trust is Kedi Eye Beta Capsule.
It's an herbal supplement that improves eye circulation and provides the nutrients and oxygen to maintain healthy eyes. Kedi healthcare products are well known around the world for best practise and sound efficacy you can always depend on.
This statement from Dr. Alan Greenberg buttress my point on herbal supplements: "As a retired physician, I can honestly say that unless you are in a serious accident, your best chance of living to a ripe old age is to avoid doctors and hospitals and learn about nutrition, herbal medicine and other forms of natural medicine unless you are fortunate enough to have a naturopathic physician available. Almost all drugs are toxic and are designed only to treat symptoms and not to cure anyone. Vaccines are highly dangerous, have never been adequately studied or proven to be effective, and have a poor risk/reward ratio. Most surgeries are unnecessary and most textbooks of medicine are inaccurate and deceptive. Almost every disease is said to be idiopathic (without known cause) or genetic - although this is untrue. In short, our mainstream medical system is hopelessly inept and/or corrupt. The treatment of cancer and degenerative diseases is a national scandal. The sooner you learn this, the better off you will be."
Ingredients of Kedi Eye Beta Capsule
Kedi Vision Clear Eye Capsules for eye problems takes its main ingredient from the blueberry extract. Blueberry extract is the most effective eye care substance which is of small molecule and easy to be absorbed by human body.
Blueberry is a very strong antioxidant. It's the only selected fruit among World Health Organization top ten lists of healthy foods. In Japan, blueberry is called "smart fruit" and it's consumed daily because of its great medicinal benefit.
According to United states, japan, European scientists study, stated that regular consumption of blueberry products, not only significantly enhance vision, but also eliminate eye fatigue.
The clinical report also shows that blueberry anthocyanins retinal cells can promote regeneration of rhodopsin to prevent myopia and improve vision. Lutein is also a major eye indispensable nutrient which can reverse damages to visual acuity.
However, the long-term lack of lutein can lead to eye blindness. Using lutein and blueberries to treat eye problems is a breakthrough in the twentieth-century history of biological engineering.
• Provides the eyes with all the nutrients needed. Thereby prevent the eyes from diseases, oxidative stress and macular degeneration.
• Improves the blood circulation of the eyes which enhance the cells making the eyes be healthy.
• Maintains health status of capillary blood vessels and relieves strain, pain and dryness of eyes, protects the lentis.
• Prevent and improves the condition of eye disorders such as blurred vision, senile glaucoma/ glucoma, eye cataract, myopia, diabetic retinopathy, etc.
• Eliminate harmful free radicals and enhance visual acuity.

Joseph James Breunig 3rd
Poem: She Gave More - Poem by Joseph James Breunig 3rd
One ordinary day at the temple,
Jesus purposed to watch people go by;
He observed their heart attitudes,
without them… even knowing why.
He watched the gait of the proudly rich,
dressed in their expensive clothes;
they jingled a portion of their wealth
and drew attention with uplifted noses.
Christ properly noticed and judged the scene
of them depositing their offering coins,
disappointed that they collected their reward
(of pride) below the temple's cornerstone quoins.
Along came a widow, who gave her last two mites,
a reflection of a poor and impoverished state,
unknowingly falling victim to the scribes' greed,
as she quietly suffered under poverty's weight.
At the moment, Christ exclaimed to His disciples
that 'she had given more' than those preceding her;
for the others offered a pittance of their wealth,
although possessing an abundance of gold and silver.
For the misguided woman was improperly taught
that God would replenish her monetary seed,
when pressured to extreme and unholy sacrifice,
as she clung to the belief of His meeting her needs.
Unfortunately, she failed to recognize the false doctrine,
being perpetuated under the malpractice of the scribes.
For near to her was the Christ - the One who provides
the Living water, upon which one may graciously imbibe.
Please note that this story is not about giving,
but about learning to observe false Pharisees.
The widow's unhappy sacrifice was for nothing,
since the Christ's presence… she did not see.
Author Notes:
Loosely based on:
Mark 12: 41-44; Luke 20: 45-47,21: 1-4; Matt 23: 37-38

Mario Gabelli's Top 5 Fourth-Quarter Stock Buys
Posted by: Holly LaFon (IP Logged)
Date: February 7, 2014 02:52PM
Mario Gabelli (Trades, Portfolio)'s GAMCO Investors is in top form. The firm on Feb. 4 reported record assets under management at $47.0 billion, with a 93% increase in earnings per share and 24% increase in revenues in the fourth quarter compared to the previous year.
Gabelli holds that stocks ultimately rise or fall based on their fundamentals, thought he has a positive outlook on the economy entering 2014. In his fourth quarter Gabelli Asset Fund letter he wrote:
"We are optimistic, as it appears for the first time in many years that the world is poised for a synchronized recovery. Indeed, the U.S. is entering its fourth consecutive year of expansion. The housing market is rebounding, job growth is slowly improving, and government policy, which heretofore probably has not added to growth, is unlikely to hinder the rebound as pre-election gridlock sets in. Even the geopolitical stage seems free of major conflict, though flashpoints throughout the Middle East, between China and Japan, and between Russia and its neighbors remain concerning."
These days, he and his team are having to look harder for cheap stocks than they did five years. These are their top selections of the fourth quarter.
CNH Industrial NV (CNHI)
As his largest new holding, Gabelli purchased 7,774,050 shares of CNH Industrial, equating to 0.47% of his portfolio. The stock's share price averaged $12 in quarter four.
CNH Industrial NV has a market cap of $14.28 billion; its shares were traded at around $10.59 with and P/S ratio of 5.30.
ViroPharma (VPHM)
Gabelli acquired 673,900 shares of ViroPharma in the fourth quarter, equating to 0.18% of the portfolio. The fourth quarter's share price averaged $45.
ViroPharma Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in September 1994 and commenced operations in December 1994. ViroPharma Inc. has a market cap of $3.29 billion; its shares were traded at around $49.96 with and P/S ratio of 8.02. ViroPharma Inc. had an annual average earnings growth of 12.50% over the past 10 years.
LSI Corporation (LSI)
Gabelli purchased 2,489,060 shares of LSI Corp., equating to 0.15% of the portfolio. The stock's fourth-quarter price averaged $9 per share.
LSI Corp. was incorporated in California on Nov. 6, 1980, and was reincorporated in Delaware on June 11, 1987. LSI Corp. has a market cap of $6.08 billion; its shares were traded at around $11.07 with a P/E ratio of 65.70 and P/S ratio of 2.60. The dividend yield of LSI Corp. stocks is 0.50%.
Provident New York Bancorp (PBNY)
Gabelli bought shares of Provident New York Bancorp totaling 997,404, a position reflecting 0.071% of the portfolio. His fourth quarter share price averaged $12.
Provident New York Bancorp, a Delaware corporation, is a unitary savings and loan holding company. Provident New York Bancorp has a market cap of $1.02 billion; its shares were traded at around $11.72 with a P/E ratio of 20.10 and P/S ratio of 3.81. The dividend yield of Provident New York Bancorp stocks is 1.97%. Provident New York Bancorp had an annual average earnings growth of 0.80% over the past 10 years.
Santarus Inc. (SNTS)
Gabelli purchased 392,700 shares of Santarus Inc., equaling 0.067% of the portfolio. The stock's average share price was $28 in quarter four.
Santarus Inc. was incorporated on Dec. 6, 1996 as a California corporation and did not commence significant business activities until late 1998. Santarus Inc. has a market cap of $2.15 billion; its shares were traded at around $31.96 with a P/E ratio of 19.40 and P/S ratio of 7.28.

Well why not, that's what we say! We know that we're not perfect, we have a long way to go but winning City of Culture is exactly what Coventry needs to unite the city and work together towards something spectacular.
Coventry has a history of triumphing against adversity, of coming together with a fierce but quiet pride. We love our city and all too often have listened to others putting it down but now is the time to invite the world to venture past our beloved ring road and into a city with a story to tell and experiences to share.
We weren't sent to Coventry; we chose to come. Coventry is a city of welcome, a city of peace and reconciliation, a city of innovation and invention, a City of Culture.
City of Culture is a competition run by the Department of Digital Culture Media and Sport every four years. Previous winners are Derry/Londonderry in 2013 and Hull who have their year in 2017.
We expect that initial bids will be submitted in spring 2017 with four shortlisted cities being taken forward to a final round in Autumn 2017 with the winner announced at the end of the year.
The winning city will then spend the following years preparing to host one of the largest events in the UK calendar as the world watches. As to what you can expect in 2021, that's where you come in. Find out more about how you can get involved
Expect the unexpected! Winning City of Culture 2021 will transform your city forever. The young people that are in our schools right now will grow up in a city with more job prospects, a thriving programme of events to enjoy, more places to eat, shop and visit with a bustling city centre. It's a lot more than a year of cultural celebration (although trust us, that year will be unforgettable!), it's about changing the reputation of a city.
We urge you to keep an eye on the news as Hull becomes City of Culture in 2017 and watch just what a difference this will make.
Although known for being one of the cities that was worst hit during the bombings in World War II, Coventry has a rich heritage and is full of hidden wonders. Did you know that Coventry was capital of England, not once, but twice?
From the invention of the jet engine, to ribbon weaving and watchmaking, and of course being the centre of the motor industry, our city has constantly re-invented itself to survive and that appetite for invention remains today and will drive us as we bid to be UK City of Culture 2021.
From Warwick Arts Centre and the Belgrade Theatre to the UK's first Shop Front Theatre, the Tin Music and Arts, Coventry Cathedral and the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum there is already lots to do and see in the city. Winning UK City of Culture will give us the opportunity to not only showcase and enhance the organisations that we already have but will help nurture new creative industries.
The city also boasts the UK's largest free family festival with the Coventry Godiva Festival.

Eric Liu Quotes About CountryQuotes about: Country
Love of country cannot be a supersized version of individual narcissism. True love of country-of this country-is love of our children, of a creed that promises them a better life before it promises us anything, and embraces the sacrifices needed to make that better life. True love of country is giving ourselves to a cause and a purpose larger than ourselves. And that cause is to make liberty worth having, to make the pursuit of happiness deeper than the quest for personal pleasure, and to leave a legacy of progress and possibility.
True patriots believe that we should measure a citizen's worth by contribution to country and community, not by wealth or power-that those whom America has benefited most should contribute in proportion to their good fortune-and that serving others should be esteemed more highly than serving self.

The sweetest elephant satchel ever
It's even got a trunk and tusks
Zara elephant crossbody bag, RM99.90
I don't wear things to "spark conversations." Look in my wardrobe – there's not one statement bag or skirt or top or anything. So as far as me testing the waters in the statement accessories department go, the adorable elephant satchel is a great Chapter One. Satchels and I need no introduction, so the only thing that remains is getting used to girls (young or old) gawking at the amount of pachyderm cuteness that holds my personal belongings. And yes, I'm aware that this bag was actually designed for little girls, but really, so what? Your argument is irrelephant.

About: Charing Cross Hospital Charing Cross Hospital London W6 8RF

Anything else?
I went to charring cross A&E several times, twice in one day, they were worse than useless, incompetent and very un educated, they never went past the standard test of blood , x.ray, ecg, even though I was very ill they never tried to find out what was wrong. after they had done the standard tests they sent me home. when I returned a hour later in a ambulance. the nurse stuck the butterfly needle in my right hand next to my vein and asked me what was the sticking out of my hand. the level of incompetence in this hospital is amazing, ime surprised the dept is still open.

I always had a thing for the Millenium Falcon, but I never considered what it would look like with a hard on. Thanks to Jakks, (note the euphemism, please,) now I do.
It's a bit wrong, yet oddly arousing. Best toy since the vibrating Nimbus 2000.
Patch says,
Looks like Xorf.conf has a GUI in the next version of Ubuntu Linux. Nice. The most common piece of tweaking I've needed to do when installing Ubuntu on a new machine is to the Xorg settings, to get the right screen resolution and refresh rate. It's lovely to have this in a GUI, where those new to Linux can get at it without a session of "uh-oh, I need to learn how to use the command line!" getting in the way. Makes it about as easy to configure this aspect of Ubuntu as it is to track down display drivers for a fresh Windows install.
I think that installing fonts is one of the only remaining things that you can't do easily with a GUI in Ubuntu, but the Penguin does ever make progress …
Edit: Nevermind; looks like the feature isn't going to make into Gutsy (Ubuntu's next release). Ah well. Perhaps next time around …
Red says:
I have a camera phone. I keep it in my pocket, because belt clips and other cases that ride on the outside of my clothing are just plain dangerous. (Imagine constantly getting caught on doorways, seatbelts, walls, toilet paper dispensers, etc.)
My phone is currently working on a gallery show entitled, "Dark Spaces," which is a visual exploration of life, as seen from the insides of my many pockets. From an esoteric standpoint, it is a fascinating collection of images that express the digital soul of the artist. From a critic's standpoint, it is a collection of unexposed pixels.
I delete the images on a regular basis.. and always feel a little guilty.

"The father of two — identified only as XB — decided together with his wife "
That's the crux of the problem.
How much was the decision influenced by those around him?
In this case probably his decision and his alone, but how can we, society, always be sure this is the case?
