August 16th 1819: Peterloo massacre
On this day in 1819 a cavalry charge killed 17 and injured 600 at a public meeting in St. Peter's Field, Manchester, England. The meeting of around 60,000 was held to demand parliamentary reform and was addressed by famous radical Henry Hunt, known as 'the Orator'. Radical agitation had been on the rise in recent years due to the famine and unemployment that followed the Napoleonic Wars and the introduction of laws that many felt unfair to the working class. Despite the peaceful intentions of the meeting, local magistrates feared it and sent in the cavalry, who violently dispersed the crowd. 15 people died in the ensuing violence, with hundreds more injured. The event was nicknamed 'Peterloo' in reference to the Battle of Waterloo of 1815. The massacre caused public outcry which only encouraged the government, led by Prime Minister Lord Liverpool, to crack down on radicalism. This period is sometimes referred to as 'reactionary toryism'.
August 13th 1910: Florence Nightingale dies
On this day in 1910 the famous English nurse, Florence Nightingale, died in London. Born in 1820, she was named for the Italian city in which she was born where her wealthy parents were visiting at the time. Her parents initially tried to prevent her from training to be a nurse, which she resolved to do after she believed God wanted her to do some work. However Nightingale bucked the tradition of upper class women settling for a good marriage and instead pursued a career as a nurse. She became famous during the Crimean War of 1853 - 1856 when she drew attention to the poor conditions of the troops and nursed wounded soldiers. Other nurses laboured in Crimea alongside Nightingale, including the Jamaican-born Mary Seacole. Upon her return to Britain Nightingale began the movement for professional nursing by establishing a nursing school in 1860, leading many to call her the founder of modern nursing. Florence Nightingale was 90 years old when she died, and passed away in her sleep at her London home.
August 8th 1963: Great Train Robbery
On this day in 1963, the 'Great Train Robbery' took place in Buckinghamshire, England. The team of 15 robbers stopped the Royal Mail train by changing a signal from green to red and stole £2.6 million, which is the equivalent of around £40 million today. Only 6 of the 126 bags on the train were not taken by the robbers. Most of the money, which was made up of used banknotes, was never recovered. 12 of the 15 were caught and jailed but some escaped and some were never caught.
July 17th 1790: Adam Smith dies
On this day in 1790 the Scottish philosopher Adam Smith died in Edinburgh aged 67. He is best known for his 1776 work 'The Wealth of Nations', a treatise on economics which has earned him the title of father of modern economics. He is also remembered as one of the first thinkers to expound the principles of what is now referred to as 'capitalism'; an economy based upon rational self-interest and a competitive free market in which the 'invisible hand' of the market should be trusted. Having enjoyed an illustrious career as a teacher and famed thinker, Smith died at an Edinburgh hospital after a long illness.
July 12th 1543: Henry VIII marries Catherine Parr
On this day in 1543, King Henry VIII of England married his sixth and last wife Catherine Parr at Hampton Court Palace. Henry's previous wife, Catherine Howard, had been executed on 13th February 1542 on charges of adultery. Of his other four previous wives, he divorced two (Catherine of Aragon and Anne of Cleves), one was executed (Anne Boleyn) and Jane Seymour died of natural causes. Catherine Parr helped reconcile the King with his daughters and assisted in restoring them to the line of succession. Henry died on 28th January 1547, and thus his last wife outlived him.
July 7th 2005: London bombings
On this day in 2005, a series of suicide bombings took place in the British capital city of London. The attacks were co-ordinated in order to achieve the most damage by striking the city's busy public transport system at the end of the morning rush hour. At around 8.50am three bombs detonated on Underground trains: one near Liverpool Street station, one near Edgware Road and a third travelling between King's Cross and Russell Square. The fourth explosion targetted one of London's iconic red double decker buses and occurred at around 9.50am on a bus in Tavistock Square near King's Cross. The four bombers responsible were Mohammad Sidique Khan (believed to be the ringleader), Hasib Hussain, Germaine Lindsay and Shehzad Tanweer. Each used homemade bombs they carried in their rucksacks. Along with the four perpetrators, the attacks killed 52 civilians and injured over 700. The attacks came during the Iraq War in which Britain, alongside the United States, took a leading role. The bombers were radical Muslims and considered the war in the Middle East oppression of their people. They also admired the head of terrorist organisation Al-Qaeda Osama bin-Laden, who was subject of an international search effort in order to bring him to justice for his role in the 9/11 terrorist attacks on New York City. The London bombings shook the Western world as well as Britain itself, for whom the 7/7 attacks were the country's first suicide attack (previous terrorist attacks included the 1988 Lockerbie bombing). The incident also raised concerns over domestic terrorism (as all four attackers were British citizens, not foreign agents) and London's security, especially as they came a day after London won its bid to host the 2012 Olympic Games.

July 5th 1948: NHS launched
On this day in 1948, the National Health Service came into effect in the United Kingdom. Ideas for a nationalised health system had been around for decades before 1948, but it was not until then that they became a reality for British citizens. The Labour government of Clement Attlee, elected in 1945, were committed to the principles of the welfare state. They were greatly influenced by the 1942 Beveridge Report, which recommended social reform to tackle the five 'Giant Evils' of squalor, ignorance, want, idleness and disease. Thinkers around Britain thus came to see healthcare as a fundamental universal right, not a privilege held by a few. Working with these ideas, the government passed the National Health Service Act in 1946, which came into effect on July 5th 1948 and created the NHS in England and Wales (Scotland's was created separately). The creation of the NHS led to universal health care in the United Kingdom, paid for through central taxation, ending the requirement that patients pay directly for their own healthcare. It radically restructured the British health care system, with the NHS taking control of the almost half a million hospital beds in England and Wales and placing almost all hospitals and staff under its jurisdiction. Despite ongoing debates over the efficiency, cost and structure of the NHS, it remains a central feature of the British welfare state. As seen with its celebration during the London 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony, the NHS is a point of national pride for Britain. Indeed, according to a recent study, thanks to the NHS Britain has the best healthcare system out of eleven of the world's wealthiest nations, with the United States in last place.

June 18th 1940: Churchill's 'Finest Hour' speech
On this day in 1940, the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill gave his famous 'Finest Hour' speech in the House of Commons. The speech came at the end of the Battle of France during World War Two, after France had fallen to the forces of Nazi Germany. In this speech, Churchill called for Britain to prepare for its role in defending the world from the Nazis; he called for people to make this 'Darkest Hour', after the fall of a key ally, into a 'Finest Hour'. After making the speech to the Commons, Churchill recorded it to be broadcast to the British people over the radio.
"the Battle of France is over. I expect that the Battle of Britain is about to begin…Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this Island or lose the war. If we can stand up to him, all Europe may be free and the life of the world may move forward into broad, sunlit uplands. But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour.'"
August 15th 1965: Beatles at Shea Stadium
On this day in 1965 the Beatles played their iconic concert at Shea Stadium in New York City. The gig was part of the band's 1965 tour of the United States, by which time they were international superstars and 'Beatlemania' gripped the world. The band formed in Liverpool in 1960, and came to prominence with their first hit 'Love Me Do' in 1962. By the time of the Shea Stadium gig they had a huge following in the US, and at Shea played to around 55,600 fans. As typical of Beatlemania, the crowd was deafening with their screams, which meant that the music could not really be heard, and were often seen crying and fainting. The Beatles did still manage to play a 30 minute set (very short by modern standards) with 12 songs. It was the intensity of these concerts, and the fact they could not hear themselves, that contributed to the band's decision to stop touring in 1966. Soon after the Shea Stadium gig, which was followed by another huge concert at Los Angeles' Hollywood Bowl, the band recorded their sixth album 'Rubber Soul'. The Shea Stadium gig was immortalised in a 1966 documentary about the event, which contributed to it becoming one of the band's most famous concerts. Shea was also an important milestone for the Beatles, and in fact for all musicians, as it ushered in the age of stadium concerts.
"At Shea Stadium, I saw the top of the mountain"
- John Lennon in 1970
August 11th 1897: Enid Blyton born
On this day in 1897 the famous British children's writer was born in East Dulwich, London. Blyton's books have enjoyed enduring popularity, selling over 600 million copies worldwide. Her most famous works include the character of Noddy, The Famous Five series and the Secret Seven series. Beyond her novels, Blyton was also a prolific writer of non-fiction, writing on topics as diverse as natural history and the Bible. Despite later criticisms of her work as representing outdated ways of thinking, including some arguably racist and sexist content, children around the world still read her books. Blyton died in 1968 aged 71 in Hampstead, England.
August 5th 1862: 'Elephant Man' born
On this day in 1862 Joseph Merrick, otherwise known as the 'Elephant Man', was born in Leicester. Merrick was an Englishman with severe facial and body deformities which resulted in him being exhibited as an 'Elephant Man'. Treated poorly by his peers, Merrick eventually ended touring Europe as a 'human curiosity' and remained in a London Hospital for the rest of his life. Merrick died in 1890 aged 27 from asphyxiation, supposedly because he decided to sleep lying down (the weight of his head meant he had to sleep sitting up) in order to be like other people. His story became especially famous after the 1980 film about his life starring John Hurt as Merrick and Anthony Hopkins as his good friend Frederick Treves.
July 13th 1985: Live Aid
On this day in 1985, the Live Aid benefit concerts took place at Wembley Stadium in London and John F. Kennedy Stadium in Philadelphia. Bob Geldof and Midge Ure organised the concerts to raise money to provide aid for victims of the famine in Ethiopia. Notable artists such as Queen, Phil Collins, David Bowie, U2, The Who, Bob Dylan and Paul McCartney performed. The London concert drew 72,000 and the Philadelphia concert was attended by 100,000. The global audience watching the live broadcast is estimated to have been at around 1.9 billion. The event was a great success, ultimately raising around £150m.
July 9th 1877: First Wimbledon began
On this day in 1877, the Wimbledon Championships tennis tournament took place for the first time. The competition is the oldest tennis tournament in the world and has been held in London annually since 1877. The first championship only included a men's singles competition and only saw 22 competitors; in 1877 Spencer Gore became the first Wimbledon champion. It is often considered the most prestigious tennis competition in the world. In 2013, the women's champion was Marion Bartoli of France and the men's champion was Andy Murray. Murray was the first male British champion in 77 years. This year's men's final winner was Serbia's Novak Djokovic and the female champion was Czech Petra Kvitova.
July 6th 1483: Richard III crowned
On this day in 1483, Richard III was crowned King of England. He had previously served as protector of the realm for his nephew the 12 year old King Edward V. Supposedly to protect him in the run up to his coronation, Richard had the young king and his brother lodged in the Tower of London. However Richard claimed the throne for himself and soon after his coronation 'the Princes in the Tower' disappeared; many believe Richard had them killed in order to consolidate his claim to the throne. Richard's reign, and indeed much of that of his predecessors, was dominated by the Wars of the Roses. These wars for the throne were fought during the mid to late 15th century between the houses of Lancaster and York, both rival factions of the royal House of Plantagenet. Richard III was a Yorkist and contributed to many of his house's early victories in the conflict, helping ensure his brother and then his nephew's reign. However, Richard III was destined to become the last king of both the House of York and the Plantagenet dynasty itself. He was defeated by the forces of Lancastrian Henry Tudor in the Battle of Bosworth Field on 22nd August 1485. Richard III was killed in battle, the last English monarch to be so, allowing Henry to become King and begin the rule of the Tudors. The hastily buried remains of Richard III were lost for centuries, until an excavation in 2012 found his skeleton under a car park in the city of Leicester.
June 19th 1937: J.M. Barrie dies
On this day in 1937 the Scottish author and playwright J.M. Barrie died in London aged 77. Barrie is best known for his creation of Peter Pan. Originally a play entitled Peter Pan or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, which later became the novel Peter and Wendy, they told the story of a boy's adventures in 'Neverland' with his friends and their encounters with the villainous Captain Hook. The aspiring writer was inspired to write this most famous work by his relationship with the Llewelyn Davies family. Whilst Barrie wrote other plays and novels, the adventures of Peter Pan remain his most famous, and earned him numerous honours in his lifetime including some bestowed by King George V. Before his death, Barrie gave the rights to Peter Pan to London's Great Ormond Street Hospital for children.

Kika Reviews
New York Times
Kika is actually one of this film maker's more buoyant recent efforts, a sly, rambunctious satire that moves along merrily until it collapses -- as many Almodovar films finally do -- under the weight of its own clutter.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5
Palo Alto Weekly
Kika is a kinky post-modern pastiche fatally short on substance and energy.
Full Review | Original Score: 1/4
Goatdog's Movies
Painfully flat.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/5
Almodovar's latest movie, Kika, is...an outrageous campy comedy about the omnipresence of tabloid TV.
Washington Post
It doesn't matter that Kika doesn't make sense -- doesn't even try to make sense. It's just so much fun to watch.
Austin Chronicle
A riot of colors, Kika is sometimes sick, sometimes playful, but consistently hilarious and entertaining in ways that few films have been lately.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5
Almodovar's central parody is strong enough to save this film from floundering too much or too often. It's daring and nasty, but rarely brilliant.
Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

Something alarming has happened to Almodovar: He has become commonplace and predictable.

There's a derelict atom smasher nestled in the middle of suburban Washington DC. The old Atomic Physics Observatory sits in the middle of the Carnegie Institution's Department of Terrestrial Magnetism, a scientific research campus in the city's Chevy Chase neighborhood.
The APO was named and likewise designed to look like an astronomical observatory, in hopes that the nearby residents wouldn't put up too much of a fuss when the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism built a particle accelerator in the well-off suburb.
When it was built in 1938, it was one of the most powerful particle accelerators in the the world. Less than a year after it was first turned on, it played an important role in confirming the nuclear fission of uranium, the discovery that directly lead to the atomic bomb. Today, it's mostly used to store garden tools. The maintenance staff let us look around at what's left of the old machine.
Walking in through the front door, one's vision is almost entirely taken up by the gigantic, upside-down pear-shaped pressure tank taking up most of the building. Inside is the accelerator. It's a Van de Graaff accelerator, very different than most accelerators used today. It uses static electricity to shoot ions down a beam pipe to a target room below.
We wanted to take a peek inside of the tank but the only hatch leading inside looks like it hasn't been opened in ages.ions at the end of a long pipe leading straight down. The ions each had one proton and one neutron. The positive charge of the steel dome repelled the positively charged protons, shooting it and the neutron it was attached to down the pipe at incredible speeds. Magnets guided and focused the beam of ions. Near the end, the positive protons would be sheared off, leaving only a stream of neutrons behind. (Carnegie Institution)
This old photo taken from inside of the tank looking up shows the spheroid while its being installed back in the '30s. Notice the beam pipe isn't in place yet. (Carnegie Institution)
Underneath the pressure tank is a space where scientists could access different controls and measuring equipment. On the far right is the beam pipe as it exits out of the pressure tank and leads into the target room below. There's all kind of old equipment and gauges that haven't been used since the facility was shuttered in the 1970s.
A ladder leads down to the target room. It looked pretty rickety, so we opted to take the tunnel from the building next door.
One room off to the side looks like it used to hold spare parts for the machine. Now it seems to be a catch-all for all kinds of old equipment from around the lab.
Two wooden doors lead to the target chamber. Along the walls are notes written in pencil of when the he ion source was last refilled with deuterium.
High energy neutrons cascaded down through the beam pipe from the accelerator above. The tube would have continued down onto a table where researchers could irradiate whatever samples they needed to.
Bohr broke the news of the discovery at a physics conference in downtown Washington DC. Two physicists sitting in the back of the room, Richard Roberts and Lawrence Hafstad, shot each other excited glances and bolted across town. They fired up the APO and within 48 hours, had replicated the experiment using their new particle accelerator.
Attendees of the conference showed up to see the results and brought along a reporter. Within a day, the world learned about the imminent arrival of atomic energy. The physicists snapped a photo inside the target room just after the demonstration of fission. From left to right Robert Meyer, Merle Tuve (who designed and built the APO), Enrico Fermi, Roberts, Leon Rosenfeld, Erik Bohr, Niels Bohr, Gregory Breit and John Fleming. Edward Teller was still upstairs when the photo was snapped. (Carnegie Institution)
proximity fuze for rockets instead.
After the war, research at the APO started up again, studying the nuclear structure of hundreds of atomic isotopes. In the 1960s scientists updated the machine to fire polarized protons, investigating the structure of unstable, short-lived nuclei. In 1975, the machine had finally outlived its usefulness, and was deactivated for good.
I couldn't help but wonder what would it would have been like to see the old machine active. Turns out, in 2010 nonfiction artist Jim Sanborn rebuilt an earlier prototype of the APO for an art installation in Denver. He scoured through old blueprints and schematics he found in the Carnegie archive, and built an exact working replica of the machine. Then, like Roberts and Hafstad, he used it to fission uranium of his own.

Some teams have quarterback problems and it can come in many forms. The Jets and Eagles couldn't be more different in how things are playing out. Nick Foles was edged out my Michael Vick for the starting job in Philly. Both QBs are having strong preseasons, but Vick has been one of the better players in the NFL this month. He had a 158.3 passer rating in Week 1 and he is doing an outstanding job of getting the ball to his receivers. Foles has been productive, as well, and he's been in great control of the offense.
As for the Jets, they aren't exactly in the best position for their quarterback spot. It's been an ugly August. The Jets keep turning the ball over and they haven't been efficient on offense either. Geno Smith actually won't even dress for the game and Mark Sanchez has an injury to his throwing shoulder, making him questionable for Week 1 of the regular season. You're obviously not going to target either of these guys, so let's look at the players you might be looking to pick up:
Is Chris Ivory going to be able to separate himself from Bilal Powell? The Jets aren't going to have Mike Goodson for the first four games due to a suspension, so it's going to Ivory and Powell getting the work. Powell is still ahead on the depth chart and the Jets have run a lot of wildcat plays for him. Still, Powell wasn't too impressive with the Jets and he hasn't done much to show he's made any sort of leap based on his preseason performances. It's really caused Ivory to slide in drafts. Here's a graph of his ADP:
It's come to a point where he's a bit of a value later in drafts, but he's still not going to be someone you're going to want to have as a flex or RB2. In Week 4 of the preseason, there usually aren't many things worth monitoring, but this one is right at the top of the list.
Is there anyone worth drafting in the Jets' receiving corps? Well, no. The Jets have nothing as far as skill players go and their lack of a quarterback severely limits any upside for any player. If you're in a very deep league, Jeremy Kerley is probably the guy to target before Santonio Holmes comes back. Still, this is 16-team territory. Jeff Cumberland is someone to think about in two-TE leagues.
Is Chris Polk gaining ground on Bryce Brown for the RB2 job? This has come up due to Brown's fumbling concerns. If Brown coughs it up again, it's not too far-fetched to think that Polk can leapfrog him. What's more, if LeSean McCoy misses time, there's a good chance that it will be a timeshare. Brown excelled in the role as the featured back last year, so he's being slight overdrafted based on last year's stats. He's going before Bernard Pierce in drafts and that simply shouldn't be the case.
The Eagles are going to run a ton, so Polk is a decent flier at the end of a 14-team draft.

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

Revered for having popularized the Southern hard rock genre, Lynyrd Skynyrd has is a classic rock band from Jacksonville, Florida that is best known for catalog of music from the 1970s. Formed in 1964, the band was formed by three teenagers by the names of Ronnie Van Zant, Allen Collins and Gary Rossington who chose the name Leonard Skinner, a mock tribute to their P.E. teacher, before stylizing their band's name as it is known today. Lynyrd Skynyrd released its first album, in 1973 to immediate success, garnering attention from fans across the country with its country-inspired hard rock sound. The band's debut record was the first in a series of acclaimed albums, followed closely by 1974's Second Helping, which featured one of the most renowned American rock songs, "Sweet Home Alabama." Lynyrd Skynryd created several tunes that are now deeply ingrained in American pop culture as anthems of classic rock, despite the infamous 1977 plane crash that would cut the band's peak years short. After Steve Gaines, Cassie Gaines and lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zant were killed in the crash only three days after the release of the band's fifth studio album, Street Survivors, Lynyrd Skynyrd broke up. The band ultimately reformed in 1987 with lead guitarist Gary Rossington as the only original member along with several musicians who played with Lynyrd Skynyrd before the crash, and Van Zant's younger brother Johnny as lead vocalist and songwriter.View More >

Robbers use JCB to ram-raid SITA offices in Mitcham and steal money from a safe
3:01pm Friday 27th June 2014 in News By Louisa Clarence-Smith, Reporter
Robbers used a JCB to smash open a safe before escaping with cash following a ram-raid last night.
Police were called to the SITA recycling park in Mitcham at about 11.10pm last night following reports of a burglary at the Benedict Wharf site.
Officers believe three men stole the key for the JCB on site before driving it through a wall of the offices, where they used the JCB to pick up a safe inside.
The robbers then used the JCB to to carry the safe over to another area of the site, where they smashed it against a wall to open it.
Disturbed by a security guard, they used the JCB to escape through the site's gates, before making off on foot.
A quantity of cash was stolen, including money raised by SITA staff for Macmillan Cancer Support.
No arrests have been made.
A spokesman for SITA UK said: "Fortunately, no one was hurt in this very serious incident, but there is significant damage to our premises and we have had to move our office-based staff to another site until the damage can be rectified.
"We are now doing what we can to help the police with their investigation.
"We feel very sorry for all the members of our staff who raised money for Macmillan Cancer Support, and for the charity itself, which has been robbed of this donation."
Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111

Bruce Happy To See Hull In Europa
Hull city manager Steve Bruce has stated that the club may need to look at the upcoming Europa league campaign with mixed views. This has been the case with every other small teams to have qualified for this competition. The sheer amount of games one has to go through in order to at least get away from the group stages has often led to teams suffering in terms of league performance. Clubs like Swansea and Wigan have learned this the hard way, but Bruce has stated that it would be a welcome to see Hull playing in Europe.
Hull city came extremely close to creating a major upset after a 2-0 lead against Arsenal in just 20 minutes of the first half. Arsenal then managed a spirited comeback and won the match 3-2 to lift the FA Cup title. Despite this defeat, Bruce was not heartbroken this was a great run with his team. Hull have not previously reached the FA Cup final in their history. The club was promoted from the Championship only last summer. In order to cope with the difficulty second campaign in the Premier league and in the Europa League, Hull are expected to make a couple of signings to strengthen the squad in the summer.
"We have to look forward to European football. We're going to have to try and enjoy it. Whether we've got the resources, whether we've got the man-power. I think we've got four [European] games by the end of August. And for a club like ours, I don't think we're ready for that. Now is not the time to reflect on that, it's the time to dust ourselves down, enjoy our holiday and come out and play in Europe," said the manager, who saw defender Curtis Davies produce an immense performance against Arsenal.

Gerrard Haunted By Slip Against Chelsea
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has admitted that he is still haunted by the slip against Chelsea that saw Liverpool so far 2-0 defeat at Anfield. This was the decisive turning point in the Premier League title race last season as it gave the impetus back to Manchester city with three matches remaining. City then went on to lift the league title, thus dashing the two decade wait for a Premier league title for Liverpool fans. Gerrard has desperately craved the opportunity to lift the league title, which is the only missing trophy from his cabinet.
Ironically, he had slipped at the back that allowed Demba Ba to score Chelsea's first goal. Ahead of the World Cup 2014, Gerrard has stated that he is still haunted by this defeat. The 34-year-old has also dismissed fears that he may allow this failing to spoil his World Cup campaign as well. He says that he will be totally over the slip by the time World Cup kicks off. This could be Gerrard's last major tournament at international level, as the 34-year-old has been stating in recent weeks that he will consider his England career after the World Cup.
England manager Roy Hodgson, though, has urged his captain to continue playing even after the World Cup.
"I take responsibility for the slip and the damage it's done. But is there anybody around this table who has not slipped at any time in their life? The difference is I did it at a bad time and at a bad place, at a bad moment. I keep saying to myself: 'How, where and why?' If I had done a bad back-pass, scored an own goal, or done my job wrongly, it would have really beaten me up," said the midfielder ahead of the friendly matches against Peru and Ecuador.

Rodgers takes Liverpool To New Heights
Liverpool's almost incredible transformation into one of the contenders for the title, all within a time span of less than a year can totally be contributed to the excellent training and coaching under Brendan Rodgers.
As a sign of its continuous progress, Liverpool's accounts were made public in the middle of tremendous apathy around a week ago. If it was a few years back, releasing the financial figures of any company was a very tricky business and almost needed a countdown from NASA while the figures were released.
Liverpool hasn't taken on a competitive one on one since the glorious victory of 3-0 in Barclays Premier League over Southampton early this month. A perfect mix of a middle of the week international fixtures round and further postponement of a match versus Sunderland has given Rodgers the exceptional opportunity of fifteen whole days to fine tune the game between matches.
No sign of any kind of let up has been seen during the training session under Rodgers, who further stressed on the tireless work that is being put in by the 2nd positioned team of the division. He reported to a popular television channel saying that it was quite interesting since the team got an adaptation day, post they were off the field for some time.
This season is going to be quite a low intensity one but the team worked with super high intensity during the training period, so much so that he actually had to take the team off training for a bit. They team is highly focused right now and is very ambitious about taking the club to new level of success. This he sees in their work each and every day and they are a team of brilliant professionals.

Perspective: Privacy concerns could keep Amazon delivery drones grounded
Several lawmakers are already calling for stringent privacy protections, and others are sure to follow
Computerworld - Amazon's nascent plan to use unmanned drones to deliver packages to customers has already raised strong privacy concerns that could ultimately nip it in the bud.
CEO Jeff Bezos' disclosure that a drone delivery service dubbed Amazon Prime Air could be delivering packages by 2015 has already prompted some lawmakers to call on Congress to implement new restrictions and rules surrounding the use of such private drones.
On the U.S. House floor Tuesday, Rep. Ted Poe (R-TX) likened Amazon's plans to something out of the old Jetsons cartoon. "Think of how many drones could soon be flying around the sky. Here a drone, there a drone, everywhere a drone in the United States."
He didn't stop there.
"The issue of concern, Mr. Speaker, is surveillance, not the delivery of packages," Poe said. "That includes surveillance of someone's backyard, snooping around with a drone, checking out a person's patio to see if that individual needs new patio furniture from the company."
Photographing swing sets, swimming pools, the people in the pools, or even peeking through windows could all be done with corporate drones, Poe warned in arguing for stringent privacy protections.
Massachusetts Democrat Senator Edward Markey, who just last month introduced the Drone Aircraft Privacy and Transparency Act, expressed similar concerns.
In a statement following Bezos's comments about Prime Air, Markey warned that new privacy protection laws must be passed "before our skies teem with commercial drones"
"Before drones start delivering packages, we need the FAA to deliver privacy protections for the American public. Convenience should never trump constitutional protections," Markey said.
Poe and Markey are but two of many that have called for the creation of rules to protect the public from potential privacy intrusions by civilian and law enforcement drones.
Privacy groups and lawmakers began speaking out on the issue after the President Barack Obama-backed Federal Aviation Administration Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 cleared the way for commercial drone use in the United States.
Most of the early concerns focused on limiting law enforcement's use of drone technology to conduct persistent, warrantless surveillance on people.
Eight states have already enacted legislation imposing restrictions on police use of drones, while 34 others considered similar legislation this year, according to the American Civil Liberties Union. Most of the bills would require police to obtain a probable cause warrant before they could use a drone to gather information in an investigation.
Meanwhile, Texas, Idaho and Oregon have passed laws targeting private drone use.
Idaho's bill, which the ACLU says may violate the First Amendment, prohibits photography or video recording by drones for profit. Oregon's law prohibits drones from flying less than 400 feet over the property of a person requesting such limits. The Texas law imposes a bunch of restrictions on private drone use, according to the ACLU.

Following Baltimore sports is a passion of mine. Since I was a little kid, I've attended Orioles games on a regular basis. I went to 20 games alone last year. Student Nights and Tuesday Bargain Nights are the best days of the week during the summer. Besides following the Orioles, I am a huge Ravens fan and Maryland Terrapins fan. Although I am hundreds of miles from Baltimore while in college, I keep tabs on local sports online and through friends back home. Amazingly, I've been able to stick with the Orioles through these tough times. I've grown up with the O's losing, therefore I've got nothing to lose and everything to gain as an O's fan.
I contribute and write for two blogs:

First, once you make the Potassium oxalate developer, it technically will last your lifetime, except one loses some in the paper with every print. I like to use it warm (about 100F or so). Occasionally you might want to filter the developer. I'll have to go up to the darkroom to get the amount per quart/liter.
EDTA -- about a tablespoon per quart (or liter). I like to add my EDTA to working strength Kodak HCA. Usually more HCA than EDTA -- perhaps 3:1. Some papers clear easier than others. I usually use 3% to 5% Citric acid for the first clearing bath, but three baths of the HCA/EDTA will work for most papers. As the first bath gets yellow (from the iron it is clearing out), it gets tossed down the drain and a new bath is added at the end of the line (the old 2nd clearing bath becomes the first clearing bath, etc).
I save the second and third clearing baths for the next printing session.
Good dust mask for mixing the developer. Gloves for the developing stage.
I like to use a "Puddle Pusher" for spreading the chemicals on the paper -- then finish up with a brush.
If your images have a lot of white near the borders (as in sky) and you get some "bleeding" of black from the black edge into you image area, I found that pouring the developer onto the print prevents this (rather than dunking the print into a tray of developer). This works for me especially as I have the developer in a water bath to keep it warm between prints anyway.
Thanks for all the information! That really helped. I might just start out with a brush to put the developer on the paper rather than a rod. I'm on a college student budget, so the less materials I need to buy, the better. If you could let me know the amount of potassium oxalate to the amount of water when you get a chance, that would be great. We might have one professor in the photo program who would know the ratio. One last question - do these chemicals go bad in their non-mixed form? I have a feeling that ferric oxalate, ferric oxalate with potassium chlorate, and the platinum solution have been sitting in their respective bottles for a while - along with the EDTA. They are in a closed cabinet in the photo lab and of course in dark brown bottles. But still wondering if they could possibly have gone bad. If they have, I might only be able to afford some palladium printing.

Expect mist and extensive hill fog, with a chill easterly breeze.

NEWS: Two people were in hospital for smoke inhalation this morning after a pan fire at a holiday bungalow in Camperdown.
The fire service says it sent 3 engines at just past 1:30am to a fire at a terraced bungalow at Festival Cottages, Camperdown.
A pan had caught fire and filled the house with smoke, leaving the two occupiers to be rescued by fire crews and sped by ambulance to North Tyneside General Hospital.
The blaze was confined to the kitchen, which was 70% moderately smoke-damaged while the rest of the house was 50% moderately smoke-damaged.

The sick pervert began abusing Mr Foster while bathing him, threatening that he'd be moved to a horrible home if he told anyone.
NEWS: Earlier we reported on a traffic light fault on Washington Road at Craigavon Road, and a broken down bus on the A1 southbound between Stamfordham Road and the Denton Burn roundabout. The traffic lights are now fixed, and the bus has been removed.
Meanwhile, on the Metro, normal service has resumed between Monkseaton and St James after delays caused by a stopped train.

NEWS: Cinema visitors are well aware just how silly they look in a pair of 3D glasses - and it seems this Geordie praying mantis can see the funny side too.
The jolly looking insect is the subject of a Newcastle University research programme into how the invertebrates react to flys "jumping out" of a screen in front of them.
And it's hoped the results could hold the key to understanding how creatures developed three dimensional vision, with potential applications for 3D recognition in computers and robotics.

Hi there! Yes, Laurence was right - I'm here with you on the liveblog. But make the most of me, as I'll only be running it for a couple of hours before handing the virtual baton over to the late reporter.
First off, I'm going to ingratiate myself with you all by posting a definite crowd-pleaser. Who wants to see a massive robotic hand crushing a car? Yeah? YEAH? 'Course you do. And we have the very story right here.
Traffic: There's very slow traffic due to surface water on the A1 Western Bypass Southbound between the Gosforth Park / Great North Road junction and A692 Lobley Hill Road / B601 Lobley Hill Road (Lobley Hill Interchange).
Hey, there's even a video of that robotic, emotionless hand crushing a car. If you've got some pent-up frustration, then this is worth a watch:
Traffic: It sounds like surface water is still slowing down traffic on the A1 Western Bypass southbound in Gosforth, and the A191 Benton Park Road. Still, at least it's the weekend, eh?

Medicare Pays $23M in Dead Claims
A federal investigation finds that although CMS has safeguards to prevent and recover Medicare payments made on behalf of deceased beneficiaries, claims have slipped through and been paid.
Medicare reimbursed providers and suppliers $23 million for healthcare services to beneficiaries in 2011, despite the fact that those beneficiaries had died more than a month earlier, according to an Office of Inspector General's report issued Oct. 31.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services "has safeguards to prevent and recover Medicare payments made on behalf of deceased beneficiaries," the agency said. "However, it inappropriately paid $23 million [less than one-tenth of a percent of total Medicare expenditures] in 2011 after beneficiaries' deaths. Part C (Medicare Advantage plans) accounted for 86% of these improper payments," or $19,906.805 for 11,835 deceased beneficiaries.
Part A claims submitted for dates of service (hospital, home health, skilled nursing facility, and/or hospice care) after beneficiaries' dates of death totaled $1.634,280 for 193 deceased beneficiaries.
Claims under Part D, which covers prescription drugs, with dates after death amounted to $1,049.444 for 5,101 beneficiaries. And claims under Part B, for physician and non-physician fees, amounted to $592,823 for 1,541 beneficiaries who had died by their dates of service.
