"The credit crunch is hitting football – and the effect is likely to be even greater next year"
Comment & analaysis round up
Quote of the day: "Perhaps we were a bit behind them in terms of sharpness and match fitness but that is no excuse. In the first half we had too many unforced errors. We needed to be more dynamic, show more personality, and to try to drive the play. We need to get up to speed before the weekend and hopefully this game will let us know where we are at and what we need to do." – Mark Hughes.
Runner-up: "He [Gareth Barry] was in the right frame of mind and wanted to play. Nothing would have stopped him so that is pleasing. I have no idea what will happen between now and the end of August. He knew the consequences of playing tonight so the decision was very much his." – Martin O'Neill.
Today's overview: The most intriguing story of the day comes from Jeremy Wilson in the Daily Telegraph: "A range of new research has shown that the credit crunch is having an impact from the boardrooms controlled by billionaire owners down to the loyal fans who provide the foundation for every club. 'Across the country we are getting the same message: the credit crunch is hitting football – and the effect is likely to be even greater next year,' said Professor Tom Cannon of the University of Buckingham's Business School.
But, as always you wouldn't know that there are any financial constraints for Premier League teams if you take in all the stories leading the backpages this morning.
Chelsea lead the way, with The Times claiming that "Chelsea are determined to complete the world-record signing of Kaká, but they will have to wait until next year to do so.†And in a supplementary article Gabriel Marcotti suggests "After six years of holding back, the big clubs look ready to pull the trigger on the kinds of mega-deals that thus far have existed only in Football."
The Blues continue to be linked with a 23 million pound swoop for Robinho and even a raid for Manchester City's 18-year-old striker Daniel Sturridge. All this comes after Adrian Mutu was forced to pay the biggest fine ever handed down to a footballer to his former club.
It was only days ago that the papers were dead certain that Dimitar Berbatov would be a Manchester United player in time for their opener against Newcastle on Sunday, now the good news for United is that Wayne Rooney will be fit but Berbartov could be on his way to Barcelona.
Spurs and Manchester City are linked with a move for Roque Santa Cruz, with City also interested in Diego Milito.
With the new season just a day away Glenn Moore in the Independent provides a club-by-club guide to Premier League season 2008/9.
And The Guardian continue their analysis of every Premier League Team. Rob Smyth writes of Spurs: "Spurs are blessed with a plethora of attacking talent, and if they can keep their defenders injury-free, they could be unlikely title contenders." And he also previews West Brom's return to the top flight. "West Brom are certainly the most reliable of the three newcomers. They look good, too, but that doesn't mean they won't end their big night out going back whence they came with only Stoke and Hull for company."
Finally, two other articles of interest include Jonathan Wilson (Daily Telegraph) on Premier League referees, Wilson writes of "The Impossible Job" – refereeing a Premier League match. And The Independent include a quirky feature in their football coverage today: "Becoming a professional footballer is every boy's dream, including 26-year-old writer and Sunday league amateur Ben Welch. So how does he cope playing for League One side Swindon Town on their pre-season tour of Austria as they take on former European champions?â€
According to Jeremy Wilson (Daily Telegraph) "A range of new research has shown that the credit crunch is having an impact from the boardrooms controlled by billionaire owners down to the loyal fans who provide the foundation for every club. 'Across the country we are getting the same message: the credit crunch is hitting football – and the effect is likely to be even greater next year,' said Professor Tom Cannon of the University of Buckingham's Business School. The most obvious immediate impact has been on the amount spent in the Premier League transfer market, which is poised to show its first yearly drop for more than five years. Indeed, with just over two weeks until the summer window closes, the clubs have so far spent £300 million on transfers compared with a record-breaking £530 million for the full period last year."
All the newspapers report on Adrian Mutu and the compensation he has to pay to Chelsea. Guardian: "Adrian Mutu can finally count the true cost of his positive drug test at Chelsea after Fifa yesterday ordered him to pay £13.8m in damages to his former club. It is the biggest fine ever handed down to a football player. The world game's governing body calculated the compensation according to the value of the remaining period on a contract that was cancelled by Chelsea in October 2004, after he tested positive for cocaine. Mutu, now 29, is almost certain to appeal. He served a seven-month ban and paid a £20,000 fine at the time."
Matt Hughes has the lead story in The Times that "Chelsea are determined to complete the world-record signing of Kaká, but they will have to wait until next year to do so. Chelsea have not given up hope of completing the world-record signing of Kaká from AC Milan, but have resigned themselves to having to wait until next year to secure his signature. The club view the pursuit of the Brazilian as a long-term project, similar to the one that led to them luring Andriy Shevchenko from the San Siro two years ago, and, after being rejected this summer, will make a renewed attempt to secure their dream signing in 12 months' time. The Times has learnt that Chelsea are working with several leading agents on a deal that could take more than a year to come to fruition. Milan have rejected several polite inquiries this summer and insisted that Kaká is not for sale at any price, but they indicated that they may be willing to do business in the future."
And in a seperate article in The Times, Gabriel Marcotti argues that "Chelsea have laid the groundwork to move decisively for Kaká next summer… But perhaps times have changed. Perhaps the marginal impact of a superstar today is perceived to be far greater than it has been in recent years, not least because the globalised pie has grown and, at the highest levels, image rights are far more valuable than at any time in the past. After six years of holding back, the big clubs look ready to pull the trigger on the kinds of mega-deals that thus far have existed only in Football."
The Sun claim that "Chelsea will lodge a new £23million bid for Robinho, who has told Real Madrid: 'I must go'. The Brazilian superstar is even ready to strike in a bid to engineer a move to Stamford Bridge. SunSport can reveal the striker has told Real supremo Ramon Calderon he wants to join the Blues. And if he does not get his way, he will refuse to play in Real's game with Valencia this weekend His agent Wagner Ribeiro met Madrid officials yesterday. But Calderon rejected the 24-year-old's plea, telling him he was a major part of their plans and that Chelsea must pay £30m if they want him."
And the Daily Mirror report that Chelsea are also interested in Manchester City teenager Daniel Sturridge. "Chelsea are ready to raid Manchester City with an £8million move for teenage striker Daniel Sturridge – and make him the new Didier Drogba. Roman Abramovich's club have the cash to snatch the 18-yearold prospect who has been on their wish list for a couple of seasons, and a three-man delegation watched him playing last night. The Stamford Bridge outfit know City have to wheel and deal to bring in new players for Mark Hughes and this could be the perfect time to try and snatch Sturridge. Birmingham-born Sturridge isn't 19 until next month but is already shaping up as a star of the future."
Ian Herbert (Independent) has an update on the Dimitar Berbatov transfer. "Berbatov trained in London yesterday and the prospects of him being at Old Trafford in time for Sunday's curtain-raiser against Newcastle United do appear to be receding, since the paperwork would have to be completed by 5pm today. Though Ramos resolutely refused to discuss him or his future, he acknowledged that it was a time of uncertainty. Spurs have said Berbatov will not go before a replacement is found and that quest is far from complete. United are working on a deal for Berbatov and Spurs' belief that Barcelona are also monitoring the 27-year-old could move negotiations along on the eve of the Premier League season."
Antony Kastrinakis (The Sun) reports that Spurs would rather sell Dimitar Berbatov to Barcelona than Manchester United. "SunSport can reveal the Spanish giants have told Spurs they are ready to make a move for the wantaway striker. United remain favourites to land the Bulgarian — but only if they meet Spurs' £30million asking price. So far, United have not budged from £25m and, if they do not up their bid, Spurs will listen to Barca. And they would be far more willing to reach a compromise deal with them, than negotiate with United."
Many of the papers report that Wayne Rooney will now in fact be fit for Manchester United's opener on Sunday. The Sun: "Wayne Rooney has won his fight to play in Manchester United's league opener on Sunday. But crocked Michael Owen is OUT of Newcastle's line-up at Old Trafford. Rooney, 22, was hit by a virus during United's pre-season trip to Nigeria. The England forward began training again on Monday, though, and is fit for the big kick-off after putting himself through tough double training sessions every day this week."
Following their embarrassing defeat last night in the UEFA Cup, Daniel Taylor in the Guardian reports that "Manchester City will return to Blackburn Rovers with an improved offer of around £15m for Roque Santa Cruz. Even that is not guaranteed to persuade Blackburn to sell the Paraguay striker although the fact City are able to offer such a large sum will encourage the club's supporters that Thaksin Shinawatra still has the money to compete at the higher end of the transfer market."
Jason Burt in the Independent reports that City are now after two strikers. "Manchester City are to test Blackburn Rovers' resolve to hold on to Roque Santa Cruz by increasing their offer for the 26-year-old striker to around £15m – but, at the same time, are understood to have launched a £10m bid for Real Zaragoza's Diego Milito. The moves represent a real statement of intent from City, who are desperate to land a striker – given their injury crisis with Benjani Mwaruwari and Darius Vassell out while Jo is on Olympic duty – within the next few days. That is unlikely to happen before their first Premier League game on Sunday away to Aston Villa."
The double act of Darren Lewis and David McDonnell in the Daily Mirror suggest that Spurs and Manchester City are battling it out for Roque Santa Cruz. "Blackburn are bracing themselves for a bidding war between Manchester City and Tottenham, with the London club set to move in for striker Roque Santa Cruz. Rovers turned down a £12million bid from City for the 26-year-old Paraguayan marksman yesterday and the frustrated player is now ready to ask for a transfer. Spurs are waiting to pounce, with White Hart Lane boss Juande Ramos a huge admirer."
Jon Barbuti (BBC) analyses whether Arsenal can win some silverware this season. "But will that challenge come this year or do Manchester United and Chelsea remain a class apart? 'I think they will finish third,' said [Lee] Dixon. 'It pains me to say it because I want us to challenge and win it but I just feel we're a little bit short.' Arsenal's wait for silverware, any silverware, might go on a little while longer."
David Hytner (Guardian) features quotes from Emmanuel Adebayor, the Togolese striker said: "A lot of people talk about us and say we play good football, good football is good but we didn't win anything [last season] and you play to win. What we are going to keep in our heads is that playing [good] football is good but sometimes you have to be tough on the pitch to win a game. We have learned a lot of things. Sometimes you have to be dirty to win some games. Against Twente, we didn't play good football, we certainly didn't play our best – but we won 2-0 and that's what it's all about. Sometimes you have to forget about playing beautiful football and just make sure you win."
Ian Herbert in the Independent reflects on Liverpool's "disjointed" performance against Standard Liege. "You can't say they're not trying. Fernando Torres and Robbie Keane even took up seats together on Liverpool's flight home from Liege on Wednesday night, attempting perhaps to develop some of the telepathy which will be fundamental to their side's hopes of progress this season. The combination of pigeon Liverpudlian and broad Dublin would have made for a curious conversation but the two certainly had some talking to do. A goalless draw was considerably less than Liverpool deserved from the Belgian steelmaking city and though Rafael Benitez spared the strikers from his uncharacteristically blunt assessment – 'If the team don't play well the strikers don't get the chances,' he said – a night on the banks of the River Maas provided a telling reminder that a combined £40m of investment does not buy an instinctive understanding."
Phil McNulty (BBC) wonders whether Liverpool can finally make a tilt for the title. "Liverpool fans are indulging in a familiar August pastime – namely pondering all the permutations to work out whether they will finally win the title for the first time since 1990. Earlier in the summer I made a written promise to Liverpool fans who accused me of forever running down their chances of winning the Premier League. I said I would return to the subject on the eve of the new campaign, study the summer's events and assess whether this season would be any different from the last 18 years in title terms."
Jonathan Stevenson on the BBC website features Hull City goalkeeper Boaz Myhill. "Sometimes in life you have to take one step back to take two steps forward. Take Boaz Myhill, for example: a promising young goalkeeper with Premier League side Aston Villa one minute; sold to Hull City and thrown into first-team action in the Football League's basement division the next. A drop down three divisions can rarely have paid such remarkable dividends in the space of five years."
Brian Viner interviews Gary Megson in the Independent. "The media had certainly written Bolton off, and it still sticks in his craw that no apologies were forthcoming when, against all the odds, the club stayed up. 'There were a lot of articles saying we were relegated, including one from a well-respected journalist saying, 'Bolton have gone and I'm pleased they have'. I've yet to see a retraction of that. We [football managers] get judged every seven days, but who judges him for getting that wrong?"
The Guardian continue their analysis of every Premier League Team. Rob Smyth writes of Spurs: "Spurs are blessed with a plethora of attacking talent, and if they can keep their defenders injury-free, they could be unlikely title contenders." And he also previews West Brom's return to the top flight. "West Brom are certainly the most reliable of the three newcomers. They look good, too, but that doesn't mean they won't end their big night out going back whence they came with only Stoke and Hull for company."
Glenn Moore in the Independent provides a club-by-club guide to Premier League season 2008/9.
Jonathan Wilson (Daily Telegraph) writes of "The Impossible Job" – refereeing a Premier League match. "In their more rational moments, most people would accept refereeing is an impossible job, but I had no idea just how hard it is before being taken on a pre-season training day with the Football Association. Forget about dives and dissent, high tackles and shirt-pulling, have you ever tried blowing a whistle while running? Then, after an otherwise blameless match, you can ruin it all by seeing a clipped ankle, a player tumbling yards inside the box and awarding a penalty when replays will show that the contact was made an inch on the other side of the line. No wonder Alan Wilkie, once a Premier League official and now a referees' assessor, speaks of 'an obscene level of punditry'."
Graheme L. Jones in the LA Times welcomes the return of the European football season. "The long months of waiting are over. Now it's time for some real, honest-to-goodness, mud-slinging, in-your-face dust-ups. Europe's 2008-2009 soccer season got under way this week with France's Ligue 1 kicking off over the weekend. Today, the Bundesliga season starts in Germany and on Saturday the English Premier League begins play. In a couple of weeks, Spain's La Liga and Italy's Serie A will be up and running, and the planet's most popular single-sport club competition, the European Champions League, will begin attracting the kind of global viewing numbers that the NFL and NBA can only dream about."
The Independent include a quirky feature in their football coverage today: "Becoming a professional footballer is every boy's dream, including 26-year-old writer and Sunday league amateur Ben Welch. So how does he cope playing for League One side Swindon Town on their pre-season tour of Austria as they take on former European champions? Here, he relives the pleasure and pain of life on the pitch."
Gregory Sica in Sports Illustrated chews over Argentina's performance so far at the Olympics, as a semi-final with Brazil looms. "Argentina has the potential to retain its Olympic gold medal, but to do this it must be prepared to adjust itself to the circumstances that lie ahead as the competition reaches its decisive elimination stage. The Argentines are still the team to beat, but must focus on its objective at all moments."
Jeff Carlisle on ESPN Soccernet previews all four Olympics quarter-finals. "Come for Ronaldinho, stay for Gervinho. That is the message that emerges as the men's Olympic soccer tournament heads into the knockout stages. Individually, players like Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi have done their bit to raise the glamour level of the competition, but it has also been lesser known players like Italy's Sebastian Giovinco and the aforementioned Gervinho from the Ivory Coast who have added some sparkle."

Gary Barlow claimed at an X Factor press conference today that everybody "played [their] part" in the exit of Frankie Cocozza from the competition.
Cocozza departed the show on Tuesday after he broke a "golden rule" of the competition. He is believed to have been caught boasting about taking cocaine.
Barlow described the recent events as a "sad week" and claimed that nobody should feel "guilt-free" about what happened with the 18-year-old singer.
> 'X Factor' Frankie Cocozza 'thought drug use was no big deal'
> 'X Factor' Jonjo Kerr: 'Leave Frankie Cocozza alone'
Kelly Rowland was also critical of fans who booed Cocozza, claiming that she would not stand for any more booing from studio audiences.
All four judges were speaking at a conference to introduce their four returning acts - Amelia Lily, Jonjo Kerr, James Michael and 2 Shoes - who will compete in a public phone vote for the right to replace Cocozza in the talent show.

SALT - Boulder Ratings and Reviews
Went for the $29 Restaurant week menu. I was disappointed that the salmon advertised on the website was not on the menu. So I ordered the beef bourg instead and was again disappointed to get a small piece of fat and gristle that had too much of a tomato taste.
We have been to SALT several times prior to this visit. Each time we come we seem to end up here. This time we stopped by for breakfast and were not disappointed. I ordered the huevos rancheros and it was fantastic.
My husband had the bbq pork sandwich and would barely share!
Another great meal.
We recently ate there during the First Bite Boulder event. The menu sounded good, the first course of soup and salad was good. The second course offered a steak option with an additional $8 fee - which wasn't stated on the menu and the waiter almost forgot to tell us. The third course of dessert was disappointing all around. The bread pudding was soggy and didn't have much taste the pear was worse and difficult to eat.
From the minute we walked in the door until our dinner plates were cleared, 48 minutes elapsed. We still had a half a bottle of wine left. Our salads were bland, particularly the caesar salads. To top it off, one of us was served the wrong entree, even after a discussion about the dish that was ordered. The special two of us wanted to order was already sold out. However, the entrees were very good.
Nothing special here. Went for our anniversary which I noted in the reservation. They did not acknowledge or ask if there was an occasion. The restaurant was busy and loud. Not the right spot for an anniversary. The food was good but frankly I felt like I was at chili's instead of a nice restaurant. Too many other options to go back!
I was very disappointed. I went to Open Table specifically to look for a Happy Hour restaurant near a class I had at 6:30. I chose Salt thinking my friend, who was treating us to dinner, wouldn't have to spend too much. We had a 5 pm reservation and, after being seated, we were told that Happy Hour was only at the bar and at that, it was for drinks only! I was upset, but we stayed. She ordered a vegetarian dinner and it came cold! It was a bitterly cold night ... she should have been told it was not a hot dish. Our server did take it back and brought her the other hot veggie dish that was offered, but it wasn't very satisfying. The tomato soup was good, and our other friends liked their cioppino and gnocchi.
We enjoyed our meal from start to finish. We were running late for our reservation, and the restaurant held a table for us. (It was not crowded, anyway.) We were greeted by friendly staff when we arrived, and the host accommodated a change of table when we realized we would prefer another area of the restaurant. Our server was prompt and very helpful with selections, also not too intrusive. (This was date night with my wife.) We had plans for after dinner, so we were not able to sample the dessert menu, but I'm sure it would be as good as the rest. We shared the cheese plate, which has excellent options. My wife had the Mary's Chicken, which was both hearty and moist. I had the Beef Two Ways, which was delicious. The beer selection was excellent, with plenty of variety, as was the wine menu. We will definitely return!
We had a party of 6 for dinner on the Friday of Homecoming Weekend. We were seated promptly by a friendly Hostess and our waiter was very attentive. I had the pork chop which was just eh. Seemed like there was a lot of fat compared to meat. The bathroom situation is also limited. This is a historic building, so I'm not sure if that's a factor, but there are two single restrooms which results in long lines.
My husband and I both ordered roasted chicken. It was delicious and the portions were very generous. The chicken was perfectly cooked and I substituted some excellent polenta because I don't like garlic mashed potatoes (although my husband said the mashies were quite tasty). We both had doggy bags with plenty of leftovers for a second dinner at home. We will definitely go back.
I think Open Table should up the $$ signs to three instead of two.
We drank water, had two entrees, shared fries and a dessert.....$80.
With tip, nearer to $100. Dinner was fine; nothing special. Dessert was awful; pumpkin cake.
Dense, dry and not edible. Also, made a reservation and was seated in the basement.
Not the least bit appealing for dining. Sat directly across from the toilet in a booth.
We had a less than stellar dining experience at Salt.
An off night perhaps - but our service was uneven and included an the wrong glass of wine being served (a rose instead of a white - obvious error). We did not send it back.
And the wrong entree (chicken instead of pork and our server agreed there was an error) which we did send back. I waited 15 minutes for the correct entree while my dining companion ate alone - I feel that Salt should have offered to remake both dishes and serve them together.

Ever since the move, I have been struggling to find a sense of belonging and purpose; a reason to be here. We joined a camping club, Beekeepers Club, Friends of the Library and sometimes attend Unity Church. I am in the Master Gardner's class, a book club, a Master Mind group, on the Board for Habitat for Humanity and am attempting to grow a home based multi-level marketing business.
I have flown to Washington to attend Ramtha's School there, recently attended the Legacy Center personal growth seminar, have done Happy, Healthy, Wealthy online coaching and various counseling sessions in person and on the phone.
After closing our store, I have worked part time as a personal assistant. Yesterday we had a long talk during which I believed I was being fired. This was very distressing to me as I have a great deal of affection for this person. I now wonder what is the purpose of my life? I have figured out how to be busy but it seems very pointless. If I were not here, everything would continue just the same.
I am looking for something to feel inspired about. I left my husband once but since I have no money of my own, feel stuck here; no where else to go. In my previous life, I managed to earn money and take care of myself. Since living here, that feels nearly impossible. I feel so useless - a waste.
Why am I here? What is the purpose of my life? What am I supposed to be doing? Why was I born in the first place?
It is natural to have beliefs but it is a mistake to be attached to them. It is best to hold our beliefs about life and about ourselves lightly - always ready to change them as our awareness grows. What if it was OK to not know why you are here? What if it was OK not to be busy? What if it was OK not to know what you are supposed to be doing? What if this was all OK instead of making a problem out of it? What would you do then?
I feel you have a lot of unresolved grief that stems from the many recent losses in your life. Let's look at what you have lost recently.
As these losses accumulated your beliefs about having a purpose, keeping busy, etc have kept you distracted from feeling the way you ARE. As a result I'm wondering how deeply you have grieved for each of these losses? Could it be that these losses have accumulated one after another, without appropriate acknowledgement and without the time set aside to feel, explore and grieve for each one? Then the relatively minor loss of losing a part-time job, added sufficient to your burden of unresolved grief for your entire being to cry out to stop - because it needs to assimilate all this human experience. This is a classic case of inner guidance coming through and the ego acting as a distraction - taking the person away from what they really need.
I suggest you stop fighting your inner guidance, which comes from your whole being and which is crying out for you to stop. Instead I want you to trust this intuition and go with it. Take time out to BE. If doing this brings up buried emotions and grief - so much the better. Find ways to express these feelings through art, poetry, physical exercise, music, talking to a friend or any other means to which you feel drawn.
If you have the courage to let go and give up striving you may be drawn into a life of solitude and grief; however like the caterpillar weaving its protective cocoon, you will eventually emerge as a stunningly beautiful butterfly.
Further Help and Resources
I strongly suggest you consider going alone on a spiritual retreat. Choose one suitable for getting in touch with grief and sadness. I also recommend you take my book Unfold Your Wings and Watch Life Take Off on that retreat. It will guide you in moving through sadness, loss and grief and in doing so be able to live out your inner guidance which come from your Higher Self - God Within. As this process unfolds answers to questions like why am I here and what is the purpose of my life will eventually become clear.


text: This may seem silly, but I haven't been able to find the answer... I want to do a nandroid backup, but NOT flash a new ROM - I'm quite happy with the one I've got - but I was going to mess around with things a bit and wanted to play it safe. Here's my guess... can someone confirm/correct, please? 1. Power off. 2. Power up, holding down Vol-Up and End/Power. 3. Select Backup/Restore. 4. Select Nand Backup. 5. Click to confirm. 6. Wait. 7. Now what? Either Reboot System Now, or Power Off is my guess, but I will admit to being clueless at this point. thanks in advance!

I Prevail - Stuck In Your Head (Official Music Video)
I Prevail - Scars (Official Music Video)
In the early hours of New Years Day 2013, a radio astronomer at the Allen Telescope Array in northern California discovered a mysterious signal emanating from a star within the Ophiuchus Constellation.
Contained within the signal was a Message--of human origin--foretelling the details of man's imminent demise. The Message was brought to The Starset Society, who quickly realized the importance of its immediate publication.
Risking extreme danger, The Starset Society commissioned a group of musicians and scientists to assist them in spreading the knowledge to a broader audience. This group became known simply as STARSET.
Please hold. STARSET will begin the TRANSMISSION of the Message to the public shortly.
VAMPS, the visually arresting rock band featuring HYDE (L'Arc-en-Ciel) and K.A.Z (Oblivion Dust), are one of the most popular bands in Japanese music.
Since forming in 2008, they have released three studio albums and four live DVDs, all of them showcasing the band's signature approach to their craft: grand-scale theatrics and drama married to expert playing and song-writing – a potent combination that has led to them playing hundreds of shows at in their home country, taking over Japanese arenas for multiple nights in a row, a series of annual Vamps-curated festivals (including their legendary Halloween event and late summer Beast Party) and growing a global fan-base dedicated to both the band's music and message.
"I want our audiences to feel the wild and immoral side of rock culture. And, as we are vampires, our show will obviously be different from that of any other rock band!!" laughs HYDE.
In the wake of two international album releases, 'SEX BLOOD ROCK N' ROLL' in 2013 and 'BLOODSUCKERS' in 2015, the VAMPS name is being talked about beyond their native land – continuing down a path started in 2010 when the band recorded a live DVD in Chile ('VAMPS LIVE 2010 WORLD TOUR CHILE'), a title which hit the #1 spot on the Japanese DVD chart; in addition, their album of the time, 'BEAST', was a Top 5 entry on the South American chart, the first time a Japanese artist achieved such a feat.
In support of 'SEX BLOOD ROCK N' ROLL', VAMPS teamed up with Live Nation in 2014 for a tour across Europe, including a performance at Download Festival in the UK.
2015 saw the global release of 'BLOODSUCKERS', a Top 5 Japanese album including the singles 'WORLD'S END' (featured in Sony's Xperia mobile campaign), 'VAMPIRE'S LOVE', a Top 3 single launching Hollywood blockbuster, 'Dracula Untold' in Japan; 'REPLAY', the theme song for 'Dark Labyrinth', a world famous smartphone app from 'Dark Summoner', downloaded over six million times; and 'THE JOLLY ROGER', featured in the TV commercial for Nissan's X-Trail SUV.
"The 'BLOODSUCKERS' release was a significant moment for us," reflects HYDE, "as it's always been our ambition to be in the same position as artists from the UK or the US, artists I listened to when I was a kid. It was actually this desire to be successful around the world that drove me to create VAMPS and to get the whole project moving forward…
"Our goal is to get our music played on the radio right after the songs from other bands I admire, to perform on the main-stage at rock festivals, to enter the US Billboard chart… all of the things that most acts want to achieve in their career."
"Music shouldn't really have any boundaries," sums up K.A.Z, "everything should be possible."
VAMPS' 2015 world tour kicked off in Jakarta, before the band headed out on a US run with Sixx:A.M. – the band they had invited to play at their own festival, 'VAMPARK FEST', earlier in the year (Gerard Way, Nothing More and Buckcherry were amongst the other names on the bill), and Apocalyptica. Vamps also headlined shows in New York, Paris, London, Hong Kong, Taiwan, San Francisco in 2015, as well as a sold-out show at the world renowned Roxy in Los Angeles and performed at some of the biggest US Spring festivals including Rock On The Range, Welcome To Rockville and Fort Rock. They concluded the year with an extensive South America tour (hitting Chile, Brazil, Argentina and Mexico) before returning to UK soil as Special Guest on the Apocalyptica UK tour in late November – a darky thrilling on-the-road package supported by the collaborative single of the two bands, 'SIN IN JUSTICE'.
"We decided to think differently," says HYDE, "to take a whole new approach. By bringing overseas artists to Japan to play on our shows, we feel we can start to work more organically with them, to create a certain bond…"
"The 'exchange tour' concept is a great way for our fans to hear the music of other bands," nods K.A.Z, "and of course it can work the other way too, creating opportunities for us to perform outside of Japan and to collaborate on fresh musical projects. It's a wide world, and it's always exciting to have the chance to try something new."
In early 2016, the band went into the studio in Los Angeles with Grammy nominated producer Howard Benson (Papa Roach, Three Days Grace) to work on new music for a Fall 2016 EP to be released via Spinefarm Records, who have been working with VAMPS internationally since 'SEX BLOOD ROCK N' ROLL'.
The first double single, "Inside Of Me/Rise Or Die" will be released on September 16th, with the former song featuring guest artist Chris Motionless from Motionless In White, and the latter being co-written by VAMPS and Richard Z. Kruspe from Emigrate/Rammstein.
VAMPS will be playing six Tokyo shows in September (with In This Moment and Apocalyptica supporting) before heading back to the US for headline dates this November.

- Go Down
- Dog Eat Dog
- Let There Be Rock
- Bad Boy Boogie

- Overdose
- Crabsody in Blue (replaces problem child on international version)
- Hell Ain't a Bad Place to be
- Whole Lotta Rosie

Original paper
Gomphonema gracile Ehrenberg sensu stricto et sensu auct. (Bacillariophyceae): A taxonomic revision
Reichardt, Erwin
Nova Hedwigia Band 101 Heft 3-4 (2015), p. 367 - 393
published: Nov 1, 2015
DOI: 10.1127/nova_hedwigia/2015/0275
ArtNo. ESP050010103010, Price: 29.00 €
Gomphonema gracile is the name of a huge cluster of more or less similar taxa and demes that are reported from nearly all regions worldwide. But the identity resp. type of this species is unknown up to present. In this paper G. gracile is lectotypified and it is shown that it differs from current concepts including G. naviculoides as one of the principal species. Therefore an investigation of the type-slide of G. naviculoides is presented together with descriptions and discussions of the most important species of this complex occurring especially in Central Europe (G. acidoclinatum, G. auritum, G. lippertii) including four new species (G. campodunense, G. disgracile, G. graciledictum, G. stagnorum). In addition, information on the distribution and morphology of the tropical G. guaraniarum and G. graciloides are given and there is a discussion of forms which have been called "lanceolatum" within this cluster of taxa. A new name (G. graciolatum) is proposed for G. lanceolatum sensu Kützing resp. Grunow.

Friday, November 28, 2003 (Sunset Beach, Haw) Hawaiian Joel Centeio todaywon the Rip Curl Cup Trials. The US$250,000 World Championship Tournament(WCT) commenced this morning with its 32-man Trials showdown, progressingthrough until four finalists emerged to secure wildcard positions into theRip Curl Cup main event.
Solid 10-12 ft (4m) surf hammered the lineup throughout the day. Some epicbarrels exploded on the inside bowl section, while bigger cleanup sets alsowashed through and caused nightmares for those in their path. Many boardspaid the ultimate price and left the beach in multiple pieces.
In this afternoon's 30-minute decider, Centeio held off Tahiti's ManoaDrollet and fellow Hawaiians Sean Moody and Love Hodel, respectively. The20-year-old posted a 6.17 earlier on, and then maintained a slender lead.The former world amateur champion is now in his first World ChampionshipTournament and faces defending Rip Curl Cup winner Joel Parkinson (GoldCoast), together with fellow Australian Phil MacDonald in heat #6 of roundone.
"I woke up this morning and never thought I'd be here," said Centeio, oftaking out the Trials. "I just took it heat by heat and came out on top.It's great.
"It's new territory," he added, of facing the WCT competitors. "I'm theunderdog – the young guy coming up, so hopefully I can go out there withoutany pressure and beat those guys. After surfing a bunch of heats today Iknow what's going on out there, so hopefully it pays off."
Drollet proved the day's standout, posting a 9.5-barrel ride first heat, andthen another 9.1 tube in the semifinals. The Tahitian eliminated formerworld #2 Shane Beschen (CA, USA) and 2001 Rip Curl Cup winner Myles Padaca(Haw) this morning, along with 1993 world champ Derek Ho (Haw) en-route tothe final, but unfortunately wasn't able to lock in another high scoringride once there. The 26-year-old will challenge six-time world champ andcurrent ratings leader Kelly Slater (FL, USA), as well as Jake Paterson(West Aus) in a highly anticipated round one match-up.
"Wow," exclaimed Drollet, upon hearing his upcoming opponents. "That's goingto be very interesting. If I get good waves like I did today I'll have achance, but we'll see. I'll do my best, but it's an honor to be surfingagainst Kelly Slater. I remember surfing against him a couple of years agoand it was amazing, so hopefully this time I'll be more of a challenge forhim (laughs). I don't have any pressure and am just stoked to be there. If Ibeat him it's good for me, but if I don't, well, it's Kelly Slater."
Moody faces current #3 Mick Fanning (Gold Coast) and Paulo Moura (Brz),while Hodel will contest an all-Hawaiian heat in the main event againstreigning world champ Andy Irons (Kauai) and Kalani Robb. The experiencedSunset surfer is definitely a major threat in what will be one of thehardest opening round heats.
"It's a dream," said Hodel, of reaching the main event. "I don't care who Ihave, just as long as I get some open faced waves I'll be happy. I knowwhere to sit out here and experience helps, but hey, I'm against Andy Ironsand Kalani Robb, and both of those guys are incredible surfers."
Two additional wildcard positions were given to Hawaiian Rip Curl teamriders Pancho Sullivan and Jamie O'Brien. Sullivan will face current #4 TajBurrow (West Aus) and fellow Australian Trent Munro (Scott's Head), whileO'Brien is against current #5 Kieren Perrow (Byron Bay, Aus) and VictorRibas (Brz).
Recent WCT qualifier Bruce Irons (Kauai, Haw) unfortunately missed hisflight from Kauai to Oahu, and therefore a chance at gaining some addedexperience prior to his maiden campaign in 2004. Ian Walsh replaced theKauaian, but bowed out first heat and then snapped his surfboard whilereturning to the beach in the heavy shore break.
Bethany Hamilton was among the strong beach crowd at Sunset and presentedCenteio with his trophy on stage. The 13-year-old survived a horrific sharkattack on Kauaai three weeks ago and lost her left arm, but has become aninspiration to all with a courageous recovery and positive outlook. She evenre-entered the water and surfed in front of hundreds of cheering friends andadmirers at home on Kauai a few days ago, and will no doubt continue toovercome her setback with incredible determination and support. A specialfundraiser has been organized for tomorrow night at Waimea Falls, withproceeds helping to pay for medical costs.
Round one of the Rip Curl Cup is expected to begin tomorrow morning at 8am(local time), conditions pending.
Live heat scores, video and audio commentary are on www.ripcurl.com duringcompetition hours, with information available in four different languages,including English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French.

Naomi Kutin, The Orthodox Jewish Teenager Who Holds Many Powerlifting World Records, Really Is A "Supergirl"
April 20, 2017 — When she was 10 years old and 92.8 pounds, powerlifter Naomi Kutin broke a personal record: she deadlifted 209 pounds. That was 225 percent of her body weight.
Now 14, the New Jersey native holds numerous world records and competes in a sport traditionally regarded as a male undertaking.
However, Naomi does not lift on Shabbos. She is an observant Orthodox Jew.
Supergirl is an acclaimed documentary that examines the life of a young girl as she balances the many facets of her life — going through adolescence, school, religious observance (she prepared for her Bat Mitzvah during the filming process) and becoming a world record holder in power lifting.
And, like many visible females, she endures a significant amount of cyberbullying — trolls who tell her that powerlifting will stunt her growth, make her too masculine, is not a decent sport for a young Jewish girl.
It is certainly a full life for a teenager who also volunteers to teach special needs kids.
Supergirl will get a theatrical release later this year.

My girlfriend and I spent only 1 night in the Sequoia Charm room and it was the best night we spent on our vacation. We arrived at 2:00 and were planning on going to Sequoia National Park but changed our minds. We decided to go to town and get a few bottles of wine and some food and laid around all day on the river banks and in the river. The place has the most amazing views of the river and the room was immaculate. I loved the decor so much I am designing my basement in my home to reflect the same type of style. I would have recommended the place to all of my friends and would not hesitate to return!!!

North Main Street Grade Separation Project
In 1999, Conrail was taken over and split up by Norfolk Southern Railway and CSX Transportation with the latter company gaining control over the line through Wellington's downtown area. With this takeover, train traffic was expected to increase exponentially through town and to potentially create public safety issues by impeding police, fire, and emergency medical personnel. With this fear in mind, Mayor Barbara O'Keefe appointed a nine member Grade Separation Committee to meet with all pertinent parties to find a workable solution for this issue.
After much discussion and a healthy dose of controversy, the committee presented the plan in the map at right. The line in red is North Main Street (State Route 58). As you can see, the plan shows the road swinging northeast in the vicinity of Taylor Street, then turning and crossing under the railroad tracks, then finally rejoining it's present right-of-way in the vicinity of Clay Street. The present right-of-way for North Main Street would essentially become part of Kelly Street as shown in blue. Clay Street and the old North Main Street would both have slight curves where they intersect with the new North Main Street so that the intersection forms right angles .
The map at left became the working plan for the project. Many changes have been made to the plan since this map was made in 2004 for a college project. The buildings shown in red were slated for demolition for the project. Later changes in the plans required that one more house on Clay Street also be demolished, leaving just one house remaining on the south side of the street.
The project is to be completed in several phases.
1. Acquire the necessary property and demolish structures standing in the way of the construction.
2. Construct a temporary set of railroad tracks adjacent to the mainline. This is necessary because the current tracks must be torn out so that a bridge can be constructed to allow the road to pass underneath the tracks. The installation of this bridge could take several weeks and the railroad tracks cannot be shut down that long. Unfortunately, this phase, which has a price tag of over $2 million by itself, also requires the demolition of two homes and a commercial property that would would not otherwise be affected by the project.
3. Dig south approach to the underpass, build railroad bridge, lay rail and reopen CSX mainline tracks.
4. Remove temporary railroad tracks.
5. Dig north approach to the underpass, pave entire new right-of-way, build new intersections for Taylor/Depot/North Main as well as Clay/Kelly/North Main.
6. Move traffic to new right-of-way and place finishing touches on project such as final grading, seeding, etc.

Les structures de végétation arborées à Acacia sur le revers méridional de l'Anti-Atlas et dans la vallée inférieure du Draa (Maroc)
Quézel, P.; Barbéro, M.; Benabid, A.; Rivas-Martínez, S.
Phytocoenologia Band 25 Heft 2 (1995), p. 279 - 304
18 references
published: Jun 28, 1995

The Acacia desert savanna nowadays occupies large areas south of the Anti-Atlas and in the lower valley of the Draa river. The present vegetation structures are complex and constituted by elements from either tropical, either mediterranean or saharian origin, which coexist and prevail according to the present ecological and climatic conditions. At the northern border, Acacia raddiana mingles with the still mediterranean structures dominated by Argania and Euphorbia echinus whereas, in the eastern part, above 500 m, the same Acacia constitutes, with Ziziphus lotus, an essentially saharan grouping which spreads eastwards to the Saoura river valley. In the Draa depression, various sahelosaharan trees and shrubs give to the Acacia formations the nearly similar aspect they have in the central and southern Sahara. According to the edapho-geomorphologic criteria, various associations can be defined: Balanito aegyptiacae-Acacietum ehrenbergianae in the large sand-silty areas, Foleyolo billotii-Acacietum raddianae in the silt-sandy wadis, Rottboellio hirsutae-Maeruetum crassifoliae on the rocky sanded bars and Stipagrostido pungentis-Acacietum raddianae in the large sandy wadis.

The Swiss foreign ministry will continue to work towards releasing its citizen held in Mali.Geneva -- Switzerland on Wednesday said it would strive to secure the release of a Swiss citizen in Mali after the execution of a British hostage Edwin Dyer by Islamic militants.
The Swiss foreign ministry condemned the killing as a "barbaric act" and offered its condolences to the victim's relatives and the British government.
"No true religion and no worldview dedicated to the well-being of all humans can condone the killing of innocent people," it said in a statement.
"Together with the British authorities and the world community the FDFA (Federal Department of Foreign Affairs) condemns this extreme violation of human dignity," it added.
Al-Qaeda in Islamic Maghreb "killed Dyer on 31 May, finding that Britain is unresponsive and does not seem to care for its citizens," the US-based monitoring group SITE Intelligence Group quoted an online statement as saying.
Dyer and Swiss national Werner Greiner were the two remaining hostages out of six kidnapped by Islamic extremists in the Sahel region in December and January.
Two Canadian diplomats and two European women tourists were released in April and flown to the Malian capital Bamako, but Dyer and Greiner were not freed.
The Swiss ministry said it would continue to work towards securing the release of its citizen.
"Together with all concerned parties and particularly with the close co-operation of Amadou Toumani Toure, President of Mali, the FDFA continues its efforts to set the last remaining hostage, a Swiss citizen, free," it said.

Did you know that October is Fall Car Care Month? Well, it is! That's because October is the ideal time, while the weather is still warmer, to ensure your vehicle is ready to face the rigors of winter. Here at Byers Imports we pride ourselves on offering excellent car repair services to drivers in Columbus, OH and beyond. Here are a few things we can help you with to get your car in tip-top shape for the upcoming cold season.
The first thing you should do is have your battery checked. If your battery is close to dying, you often won't experience issues in the warmth of summer. However, as soon as the cold hits, a dying battery is much more likely to give out. Then, you'll be stranded with a dead battery in the cold. So better to ensure your battery is good to go while the weather is still warm than risk having a car that won't start in subzero temperatures. Here at Byers Imports, we can test your battery and replace it if needed.
The next most important thing to have checked out is your heating and cooling system. You might not care about your heat right now while the weather is nice, but as soon as you want to defrost your windshield so you can see to drive, you'll care. Bring your vehicle into Byers Imports and we'll make sure your heating system is working properly and we'll also ensure your wiper blades are up to snuff to deal with the ice and snow.
Don't get caught in the dead of winter with a car full of problems. Deal with them now while the weather is still nice and feel confident that you're ready
to face the cold head on. Bring your vehicle into Byers Imports and we'll take care of all of your seasonal automotive needs!

Have you had esthetic enhancements to your teeth or just naturally have great looking, perfect teeth? Here are some dentistry tips to maintain your picture perfect smile.
n order to maintain a healthy smile, you have to know what types of things are damaging to the teeth. Identifying and eliminating bad oral habits is the key to retaining a great smile for many years. Sometimes we are not aware that we are harming the health of our teeth. Do you:
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are in danger of causing a detrimental effect on your new perfect teeth and smile.
How Detrimental Are the Effects? No one can predict the exact effects that the habit will have on your newly perfect teeth, however, the longer the duration of the habit, the greater negative effect it will have on the longevity of your smile enhancements.
The first step to eliminating a bad habit is to identify and acknowledge that you have one. If your habit is crunching ice, you must alter or eliminate it from your day-to-day routine.
Other habits are harder to break like grinding your teeth. Grinding the teeth is generally an involuntary action and usually occurs when asleep. Because the habit is difficult to break, a plastic night guard is the best solution to prevent excessive wear of your teeth.
A night guard is a clear plastic mouthpiece that is custom-fitted to snap over your teeth, much like an athletic mouth guard. The night guard is designed so your teeth grind on the plastic, not your teeth. The night guard will wear out, but your teeth will not.
Do not neglect your teeth, especially if you have had esthetic enhancements. Your enhancements will not last forever, so in order to preserve your perfect teeth, have regular dental check-ups and do your best to eliminate bad oral habits.
By Benjamin O. Watkins, III, DDS
Do your looks affect the way people treat you? Positive self-esteem - how we feel about ourselves - is very important to a healthy personality, to happiness, to the development of a positive attitude about life, and to achievement in the direction we choose.
It is well documented that people with a positive "feeling" about themselves do better in school, in business, and have closer, more meaningful relationships.
One measure of self-esteem is how you feel about your physical appearance; or, more importantly, how you feel you look to others. The complexion, teeth, and nose, in that order, are the highest "rated" facial features.
Self-image begins to develop about age four or five. At that age, identity influences other developing traits: social skills, verbal skills, intellect, and the ability to define oneself as a successful person. In other words, at age four or five a child makes a giant step toward "I'm OK, I'm a worthwhile person," or, conversely, toward "I'm not OK." The results can often affect the remainder of that person's life.
Beauty is often more than skin deep, because the psychological damage to a person who feels unattractive can be devastating. Then there's the other side of the coin. Does how we look affect how others treat us?
Indeed. Studies have shown that good-looking people are given the benefit of the doubt over unattractive people. They're thought to be more intelligent, more likeable, higher achievers, honest, and braver than the unattractive. Even school teachers spend more time with attractive students!
Your mouth is important to your total psychological and physical well-being. Is it worth regular dental cleaning and cosmetic dental care? Is visiting your cosmetic dentist and having your broken teeth restored with beautiful dental crowns worth it? Is straightening crooked teeth with braces worth it? We think you'll probably agree, you and your family are definitely worth it!
