This is truly a gem of Mid-Michigan and maybe all of Michigan. So very peaceful, comfortable and aesthetic. The breakfast was so tasty and outstanding and all with a loving home-made touch. It was also a great value and was exchange in abundance! Thank you so much Jim and Vicki. My wife has already told me she wants to come back!

My husband and I stayed two nights in the sweetheart suite for our 6 yr wedding anniversary. We booked the room online, so we only seen the pictures of the room from there. Upon our arrival, Vicki greeted us at the door and escorted us to our room. As we walk in, we are both shocked at how much more beautiful the room looks in person! Absolutely clean and such a great setting for a couple getting away to be alone. Vicki asked us where we would like to have our breakfast. We told her our room would be nice. But in the morning we were sitting on the porch and Jim asked if we wanted to enjoy breakfast on the porch. It was such a cute idea! He served us our breakfast on the porch in courses. Let me just say, the breakfast both mornings were so filling and delicious!! They are such great hosts. Since it is such a small town, there are only a few places to eat for dinner. But we tried the subs from across the street and we also ate at a small bar down the street. (Both walking distance) the food was good! There isn't much to do if you stay in town. But there is a cute park with a river that runs through and has a little walking bridge over. We loved staying here and we can't wait to return and try a different room! Thank you Jim and Vicki, our anniversary weekend was amazing!!

I was a month away from having our second child when we stayed here. I was blown away! The pictures do not do these rooms justice. It's one thing to put matching pieces in a room and call it good. These people went beyond that. Each room is an experience. As a guest you don't have to try to create a romantic atmosphere. It's already there. Stunning, really. The food was exceptional as well. I can't wait to go back and try reach room!

My husband & I always prefer a bed & breakfast to a hotel room & this place is the absolute best value we've ever stayed at. First the highlights; absolutely gorgeous & romantic room (stayed in the bridal suite), right in town making it convenient to grab a drink or a light meal with no driving necessary, & the breakfast was amazing, overall just an exceptional value. Now the few things that could be improved.... the owners daughter checked us in & it seemed a little strange just standing in the middle of the living room with her holding a clipboard & asking us questions; maybe invite your guests to sit down at that beautiful table to do the paperwork or better yet ask those questions prior to arrival. The rubber ducks in the bathtub must go; they looked very out of place in that romantic room. Also the room could use a CD player & a coffee pot. Our breakfast was delivered 45 minutes late after my husband went to check on it (we thought maybe they misunderstood & had it waiting for us in the dining room instead of bringing it to our room). Fortunately we had the time to wait, but if someone needed to be checked out at a certain time then breakfast should be delivered on time. Also when they finally brought the breakfast, he came right into our room & set the tray on our table.... a major NO-NO to come into someone's room! I was not expecting that & sitting on the bed in my pajamas! They should leave the breakfast outside of your door on a tray with just a light knock on your door to let you know it's waiting for you. So having said all that, it was one of the most romantic places that we've visited in Michigan & will certainly return. You must take the drive to Greenville & have a wonderful dining experience at Winter Inn as well.

J. Lindeberg Fall/Winter 2011 - I'm not really an advocate of the bandana around the neck look (or kerchief or whatever you want to call it), but If you can pull it off, go for it. However, I am definitely an advocate of that brushed flannel jacket. Those flap pockets look deadly.

Utah Jazz: Friday could be Paul Millsap's last home hurrah in a Jazz uniform
Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Depending on how things play out — in both the impending postseason and the upcoming offseason — tonight could be the last time Paul Millsap ever wears a Utah Jazz uniform at EnergySolutions Arena.
Utah finishes its regular season in Minnesota and Memphis, so Friday's game against the Timberwolves could possibly be the free-agent-to-be's home finale after a seven-year stint in Salt Lake City.
The longest-tenured Jazz player clearly didn't want to think about that fact, somewhat brushing off a question about whether he'd have extra emotions going into what could be his last home hurrah in a No. 24 Jazz jersey.
"I don't approach it differently than any other game, especially in these past few weeks," Millsap said. "The main focus, the main goal, is to win."
Millsap smiled when asked to talk about the growth he's experienced since coming to Utah out of Louisiana Tech in 2006.
It's obvious, though, that Utah has become a second home to him since he followed Karl Malone's path from Ruston, La., to the Beehive State.
"I don't have enough time to really talk about it. It's been a long road — a long, long, long time being here. Seen a lot. Done a lot," Millsap said. "(I've) met some great people and everybody that I've met (here) has been a part of my growth, has been part of me getting better as a person, as a basketball player.
"I owe a lot to this community," Millsap added. "I owe a lot to this organization."
And vice versa.
Millsap carved out quite the nice niche for himself as being a Jerry Sloan-approved lunch-pail worker who made the most of being an undersized, 6-foot-8 power forward. Drafted No. 47 overall by the Jazz seven years ago, Millsap proved to be a valuable backup behind All-Star Carlos Boozer and then showed that he's capable of carrying the starting load.
Millsap came into the NBA as a three-time NCAA rebounding champion, but he improved his outside shot and hit the weight room hard to become a versatile player with the ability to play away from the basket and to bang inside the paint.
"He's been a true pro. He's a guy that's grown a lot since we first brought him here," Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said. "He's worked a lot on his body to grow, to be the player that he is now from the time that he came in the league."
Corbin also lauded Millsap for learning how to "play with his size in this league" and for his off-the-court contributions.
"He's been a great teammate," Corbin said, "and a great guy for this community."
Millsap's future with the Jazz, however, is unclear.
Utah has two blossoming young big men in Derrick Favors and Enes Kanter, and it's unlikely the Jazz will bring back both Millsap and starting center Al Jefferson, who'll also become a free agent this summer.
HEALTH IN A HANDBASKET: It looks like the Jazz will have more bodies available for tonight's game than they did while playing the Thunder as a shorthanded squad Tuesday.
Marvin Williams (stomach flu) and Alec Burks (sprained ankle) both practiced Thursday after missing the loss to OKC with their ailments. Jamaal Tinsley injured his wrist, but he's expected to be good to go.
Burks is looking forward to playing again. He sat out the past two games after twisting his ankle while stepping onto New Orleans guard Xavier Henry's foot a week ago.
"It's tough because I've never hurt my ankle before," Burks said. " But I got through it."
The Jazz will be without Enes Kanter for the rest of the season. The second-year center underwent ligament reattachment surgery on his dislocated left shoulder Wednesday in Chicago.
Kanter will begin his rehabilitation process in the Windy City, his offseason home, before returning to Utah to work with the Jazz's medical staff.

AnoHana is a story of high emotion. There's a lot of screaming, crying, laughing, and soppy emotional weltering of every flavor. It is tough to digest all of that in 100 minutes. In fact, it's not really recommended.

UPDATES: Two men in custody after teenager is involved in 'fail to stop' collision after house party
Updated 5:28pm Saturday 8th March 2014 in News
POLICE are investigating a 'fail to stop' collision at Leydene Avenue in Bournemouth, this morning.
The road was cordoned off at both ends earlier today and officers were measuring tyre marks on the road.
A 19-year-old man, who had been walking on the pavement, suffered cuts and bruises in the incident.
The incident occurred at 2.15am after a party took place at a property in neighbouring Leydene Close, and police have seized a car.
A man, who answered the door to the house this afternoon, but did not want to be named, said there had been a row between two groups at the party.
After one group was told to leave the house, it is alleged that one man drove an Audi car at a teenager and his girlfriend as they walked along the pavement.
The man then said the car's occupants got out of the vehicle and began to punch and kick the injured youth on the ground before driving away.
He added police were quickly on the scene and the victim was taken to hospital by ambulance.
Detective Sergeant Andy Bell said two people are in custody - however, there has not yet been a charge.
He added that the collision is believed to stem from a disagreement which took place during the evening.
Police tape still surrounded five houses on the road until after 10am and residents on both sides of the street were not able to move their cars from their driveways.
At 10am one police officer and two scenes of crime officers were still at the scene.
Drivers trying to access the road were being asked to turnaround and find an alternative route.
Doria Mason, a resident of Leydene Avenue, said the road is usually quiet at the weekends but that there has been an increase in through traffic in recent times.
She added: "People use it as a shortcut to get to Castle Lane and it can get quite congested."
Cyril Faulkner, who has lived on Leydene Avenue for 15 years, said he was surprised to see his was amongst the houses to be cordoned off this morning.
He added: "It is a sober, quiet area and nothing like this has happened before."
Tony Letts, a self-employed publisher, said: "I couldn't believe it when I got up this morning. I wanted to get out and use my car but the police had cordoned everything off. It is usually so quiet here."

Found this caged and corked 750 at a local shop after some searching.
This is the North Coast version of the collab with Deschutes and Rogue.
Sales guy tells me it's "not really a barleywine for aging because its more of a double IPA."
Got it home and sure enough, it's nothing like a BW IMHO.
Pours a darkish golden brown, akin to a DIPA, pretty good amount of head that sticks around, again, like a good fresh DIPA should.
Flavor however isn't like a DIPA, nor is the nose. Not really sure what's going on here...but it's good.
The more I sip it the more it tastes like a BW, but only after its been swallowed, not in the mouth.
Looking forward to trying the Deschutes and Rogue versions, both of which I have, so see how they each out their spin on this interesting, yet unique, barleywine.

Poured into a snifter this beer was a cherry amber color with a small tan head. There was a smidgeon of lace.
Aroma of caramel and honey. Some dark fruit as well as a bit of citrus.
Caramel and toffee taste. Figs. Some grassy hops. Couldn't really appreciate the citrus noticed in the aroma.
Very smooth and easy to drink. The alcohol was not at all noticeable.

Served on-tap at local watering hole.
Nice bronze clear appearance.
Abundant two finger head holds up well. Good lace.
Not your typical barleywine.
Obviously not the intent of brewer to produce a knock your socks off numb the senses with tastes.
Very subtle. Flowery & very smooth up front with a nice surprising hint of hop flavor and alcohol sneaking up on you in the finish.
Too easy to treat this beer as a drinker not a sipper. Had to remind myself to slow down.
Very enjoyable. They pulled off something very different. A nice change.

(Served in a snifter)
A- This beer pours a clear bright copper body with strands of big bubbles gently pushing to the surface. There is a sticky creamy off-white head that has a touch of lacing with each sip.
S- The sweet pale malt aroma has some light caramel notes and a hint of butter in the finish.
T- The nice rich pale malt is sweet with a dry green woody hop finish and some cream flavor in the finish with a touch of sweetness.
M- The medium mouthfeel has a gentle crisp fizz and a nice soft alcohol warmth.
O- This classic barleywine has more of a "blonde barleywine" character to it. It is rich and sweet but not the luscious malt depth that I would expect from a barleywine. It is still a very nice sipping beer.

Poured from the bottle into a snifter.
A- This beer pours a beautiful amber color and leaves a considerable head and beautiful lacing on the glass's sides. In the glass, it looks like a dark amber beer.
S- A very fruity profile, something like earthy fruits like prunes and pears. A mild hop and malt profile is present as well.
T- Very similar to the smell, prominent citrus notes give way to piney, earthy hop resins and hints of spice. The booze emerges on the finish, but is not overbearing.
M- A bit more carbonated than would be expected. A bit of burn from the booze at the backend.
O- A good barleywine, but one with some noticeable flaws. Certainly could mellow out a bit and I'm sure aging would do this, so I'd revisit a few years down the line.

A friend brought a bottle over and was kind enough to pour me a tumbler glass as a sampler.
A: Cloudy with a medium head. Almost reminds me of a hefe with a bit more amber color.
S: Very fruity with some earthy wood smell I couldn't quite make out. The fruit is the main attraction here anyway.
T: The fruity aroma supported by an almost tropical mix of fruit flavor. Lots of citrus flavors chased perfectly by a wave of hops.
M: Smooth with low carbonation and a near-perfect amount of lingering hop flavor. There is a touch of alcohol burn, but not nearly what I expected from a 10%. This one could be dangerous.
O: "Barleywine Style Ale" represents this one perfectly. It's not what I expected from the "Barleywine" label, but it's a very worthwhile detour if you're looking for a bit of a curveball. If I encountered a bottle on the shelf, I'd grab it without a second thought.

Beloved: a novel by Toni Morrison — According to the publisher, Random House, the book can be described as "Staring unflinchingly into the abyss of slavery, this spellbinding novel transforms history in a story as powerful as Exodus and as intimate as a lullaby. Sethe, its protagonist, was born a slave and escaped to Ohio, but eighteen years later she is still not free. She has too many memories of Sweet Home, the beautiful farm where so many hideous things happened. And Sethe's new home is haunted by the ghost of her baby, who died nameless and whose tombstone is engraved with a single word: Beloved.

On Thursday August 9 at noon we'll be discussing:
Waterland by Graham Swift — Set in the bleak Fen Country of East Anglia, England and spanning some 240 years in the lives of its haunted narrator and his ancestors, Waterland is a book that takes in eels and incest, ale-making and madness, the heartless sweep of history and a family romance as tormented as any in Greek tragedy. According to the Los Angeles Times, "Waterland, like the Hardy novels, carries with all else a profound knowledge of a people, a place, and their interweaving… Swift tells his tale with wonderful contemporary verve and verbal felicity… A fine and original work."

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice, — is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other.
–John Stuart Mill, "The Contest in America," Fraser's Magazine (Feb. 1862)(Mill embraces the Union cause in America's Civil War)

The Oz project is developing technology for high quality interactive fiction and virtual realities. An important aspect of this research is the development of intelligent, emotional agents to occupy these micro-worlds. We present here some preliminary work on Em, a implemented model of emotion for use in these agents. Em is based on the theoretical, cognition-based emotion model of Ortony, Collins, and Clore and has shown promise of being a flexible model of emotion.

My first article for Seeking Alpha, "Why Buy MLPs?", was published September 5, 2008, just prior to the financial meltdown which dragged the stock market into depths that were hard to understand. At that time, the Alerian MLP Index had been drifting lower to 261 from a high of 342 in 2007. Despite this decline, I described MLPs as excellent long term investments because they invest in fixed assets in demand by the growing energy industry in the US and Canada. The articled opened with:
"Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) are a new type of investment with an excellent record of high rates of stable growth and mostly tax-free (until the ultimate sale) high yields. Master Limited "Partnerships are a new type of investment with an excellent record of high rates of stable growth and mostly tax-free (until the ultimate sale) high yields."
Then came market collapse. The MLP index plunged to 152 with a 15.3% yield in November 2008. After an attempted rebound, it fell back to 167 in March 2009. When the stock market roared back, MLPs led the recovery. It rose to 411 before settling back to 363 currently. Formerly, MLPs were known for having low betas with limited ups and downs. Not any more.
Even after those gyrations, the basics for MLPs remain in place. MLPs supply energy infrastructure, primarily for gas and oil. Both industries are growing rapidly in the US. Besides providing support for energy projects, in recent years they began investing heavily in shale related projects. The growth in energy from shale is best demonstrated in North Dakota where increased oil production will make it the second largest state supplying oil in the US (Texas is #1).
Investing in MLPs is different than investing in stocks. They are limited partnerships: ownership is measured in units which pay distributions (not dividends). Tax treatment of distributions is favorable, only a small portion is taxed in the current year. But tax reporting is not simple and significant record keeping is required while the units are held. MLP yields are high (the MLP index yield is 6.7%) which is attractive for investors willing to accept tax complications.
I favor 2 major MLPs, each has a companion company which is a corporation that issues shares. They pay stock dividends based on the distributions paid to unit holders, attractive for those who want to avoid tax hassle.
Kinder Morgan
Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMP) has become the largest MLP after acquiring El Paso last month. The system operates 80,000 miles of pipelines and 180 terminals. It transports natural gas, gasoline and crude oil in the Midwest, the Rocky Mountains and Texas and with the EP network from the Gulf Coast to New England, and in the west through Arizona, California, New Mexico and Nevada.
Its companion company is Kinder Morgan Management (NYSE:KMR), a corporation paying stock dividends. Kinder Morgan Inc (NYSE:KMI), is the general manager running the overall business. Its IPO was last year, so it has a limited record of dividend growth.
Enbridge Energy
Enbridge Energy Partners (NYSE:EEP) has 2 main businesses: the Liquids Segment for crude oil transportation (about 2/3 of the total) and the Natural Gas Segment with storage and natural gas midstream services (the remaining 1/3). EEP transports crude oil and natural gas liquids through the world's longest petroleum pipeline from western Canada to refining centers in the Midwest and on to Ontario, Canada. The Natural Gas Segment transports and markets gas in the Mid-Continent and Gulf Coast regions of the US.
Enbridge Energy Management (NYSE:EEQ) is the companion corporation (with stock that pays stock dividends) that manages the business. Enbridge Inc (NYSE:ENB), a major energy company based in Calgary, Alberta, owns about a quarter of the partnership and is the general partner.
MLP valuations are based on distributions, distribution records and the valuation placed on that income. Both companies have excellent records with no reductions. KMP distributions rose from 94 cents in 1997 to $4.80 presently. EEP distributions rose from $1.18 in 1993 to $2.13 presently. Both are guiding higher distributions for 2012 and beyond.
After outperforming popular stock averages for almost 3 years, MLPs are lagging behind in 2012. Lower prices raise yields for the index (which fell to 5.8% at its record high for the MLP index), bringing more value for security buyers. My article concluded:
"MLPs have excellent track records with relatively mild price fluctuations around their growth trend line, high yields (largely tax deferred) with excellent prospects for rapid growth going forward from strong demand for more oil and gas pipelines. These prospects have attracted many investors and this investment should gain popularity in the future."
Investors who bought MLPs 4 years ago (before the major portion of the crash) have done well, even though the immediate results tested their resolve. These securities should continue to give excellent long term results while providing current income to provide a degree of comfort during difficult times (like this year).

Artist Sue Glasgow opens show at new London bike shop
Pearson Performance in Sheen, SW London hosts art happening Thursday
The new South-West London bikeshop Pearson Performance is hosting a not-so-private view of sculpture and photographs by artist Sue Glasgow this coming Thursday evening.
Why in a bike shop? Called 'Experience; To Try', one of Glasgow's new works in her own words, "takes the simplicity of a pedal and transforms its existence to a singular over-proportioned monolithic figure in one piece, whilst multiplying its existence in another."
It's an invitation, as she puts it, "to experience the notion of taking part in the event as opposed to being a passive observer."
In other words, the artist is inviting the first 100 guests on Thursday night to take home one of the individually cast pedals "with her compliments" in return for sending her a photograph of the pedal in its new home and a few words describing a first bicycle memory. "The final images present the new use of the object as singular identities that pop up within the backdrop of their typical mechanical environment."
Sounds good to us; we're just dying to ask the artist whether we can decorate the plaster pedal before we install it to photograph in a niche by the fireplace. If we're allowed we're thinking Swarovski crystals.
Meanwhile, there's a pair of road.cc socks to the commenter below who can identify the manufacturer and model of the original pedal model.
Sue Glasgow 'Experience; To Try'
Thursday 17th November 6.30 - 8.30pm
Pearson Performance 232 Upper Richmond Road West SW14 8AG 0208 642 2095
until 30 December opening times Mon-Sat 8.30-5.30pm Sun 10.00-4.00pm
Time ATAC's but cant tell which model, ill go with:
Blimey Blackhound are you trying to win your way through our entire stock of socks!
And Graham Watson at Sigma in Kingston the same evening. What's the art-loving south-west London cyclist to do?

TMO changes set to be trialled
ESPNscrum Staff
March 7, 2012
Craig Joubert was at fault in the Bulls' win over the Cheetahs © Getty Images
Discussions are underway for Television Match Officials (TMOs) to be granted additional powers, with South African referees' boss Andre Watson hopeful that a trial could be in place for this year's Currie Cup.
The issue came to the fore again during last weekend's Super Rugby clash between the Cheetahs and Bulls, where a try was awarded despite glaring video evidence of a double movement.
Bulls prop Dean Greyling profited, as referee Craig Joubert had asked only if there was any reason not to award the try. As the official had missed Greyling's infringement, Johann Meuwesen, the TMO, was not permitted to inform him as his remit falls only on the grounding of the ball in that situation.
"According to protocol from the IRB a referee is not allowed to respond to any additional information from the TMO which doesn't relate to his original question," Watson told Die Burger. "Johann wanted to give Craig extra information, because it clearly wasn't a try, but both of them would have ended up in hot water.
"The problem started with Craig not spotting Greyling's transgression. In this case the protocol led to the wrong decision being made and Craig has taken full responsibility.
"[The proposed changes] will allow the TMO to point out foul play and to give additional information to prevent a situation like what happened at the weekend. If there is, for example, a forward pass which leads to a try 30 metres on, he'll be able to point it out. I really hope the Currie Cup is one of the competitions in which the protocol will be tested. A decision will be made next month."

Highlights, heroes, lows and laughs: The football season in review
'The Independent' football team hand out the gongs at the end of another fascinating and exciting campaign
Tuesday 31 May 2011
James Lawton: Sports Writer of the Year
Player of the season: Jack Wilshere. in a season of so much underachievement, he rose up as an authentic talent, a superior achiever, a natural player. Arsenal's frailties, and killing disappointments, didn't seem to touch him. A player of vital class for England, surely.
Performance of the season: Xavi Hernandez at Wembley last Saturday. It is hard to recall an individual performance delivered so perfectly. He was beyond any challenge in the depth of his impact – and that included the one from Lionel Messi.
Unsung hero of the season: Neil Warnock, the only winning manager not to be handed a bauble by the League Managers' Association. A proven pro who understands how a football club, whatever its problems, is supposed to function. Abrasive? In fact, as Walter Hagen advised, he has found time to smell the flowers.
Encounter of the season: Actor Morgan Freeman over dinner in Johannesburg during the World Cup – a man of great modesty and charm whose discovery of "soccer" as the world's most irresistible game was timely on the eve of Spain's defeat of the disappointingly thuggish Dutch. His respect for the contribution of sport to South African life was immense and touching, a reminder of the brilliance of his portrayal of Nelson Mandela.
Villain of the season: Too close to call, a toss-up between David Gold, David Sullivan and Roman Abramovich. No, that's not quite right. Abramovich, handily, when you consider the quality of Carlo Ancelotti, the man he humiliated so sickeningly. Dishonourable mention: Michael Platini and his absurd defence of the decision to take the 2022 World Cup to Qatar.
Match of the season: Manchester City 1 Chelsea 0, 25 September 2010. Manchester City's defeat of Chelsea came early in the season when Ancelotti's team had appeared to be unstoppable. City were ferocious and Ancelotti complained, mildly and charmingly, that the referee had left his whistle at home. City deserved to win and should remember the performance the next time they consider laying down the sandbags.
Quote of the season: "I wish I was Peter Pan. I wish I could play for ever." Robbie Fowler, aged 35, after appearing for the Perth Glory before a slim crowd in Brisbane on the eve of an Ashes Test.
Glenn Moore, Football Editor
Player of the season: West Ham took 32 points from the 32 matches Scott Parker started. They took one from the ones he did not. West Ham were a one-man team – as Fabio Capello belatedly recognised in recalling him to the England team.
Performance of the season: Barcelona's 5-0 defeat of Real Madrid in November. It was not just the quality of the football, but the calibre of the opposition – and their coach.
Unsung hero of the season: Mark Hughes, who didn't panic when Fulham slid into the bottom three; instead, he kept faith in his methods and when the injuries eased they climbed to safety.
Encounter of the season: A day spent with Dean Smith, Walsall's rookie manager, as he plotted what would prove a successful escape from relegation.
Villain of the season: Whoever not only allowed the FA Cup final to be played before the Premier League season finished, but also allowed matches the same day. Inevitably the title was clinched and football's most venerable competition lost a little more lustre.
Match of the season: Pretty much anything involving Blackpool. Whoever the opposition were Ian Holloway's men took them on and it was great to watch.
Quote of the season: "If you pay them the wages they'll come. We all kid ourselves, 'I've wanted to play for Tottenham since I was two. I had pictures of Jimmy Greaves on my wall'. It's a load of bull. Here's £80,000 a week. Lovely jubbly." Harry Redknapp
Sam Wallace, Football Correspondent
Player of the season: I voted for Gareth Bale in the Football Writers' Association awards but since then injury and fatigue claimed the end of his season. So it has to be Nemanja Vidic. OK, he could not stop Lionel Messi in the Champions League final but he still had a fine season. His tackle on Messi in the 22nd minute of the final was a beauty. He had most minutes on the pitch of any United player in the league – including Edwin van der Sar.
Performance of the season: Loved Jack Wilshere in both legs of Arsenal's Champions League against Barcelona, especially at home. But Wayne Rooney's second-half hat-trick against West Ham on 2 April was brilliant. Along with Ryan Giggs he ran the game. And just Rooney's luck, everyone remembers it for a naughty word he said to the camera. Aren't football people sensitive souls?
Unsung hero of the season: Let's go down a few divisions for this one. Graham Westley, manager of Stevenage, has won two successive promotions, from the Blue Square Premier and then League One while also administering a sound beating to Newcastle United in the FA Cup third round. The Stevenage manager is an "intense" personality by all accounts – but also a bloody good coach.
Encounter of the season: Along with a group of British newspaper journalists, I doorstepped Jack Warner, the Fifa executive committee member, at his hotel in Zurich just before December's World Cup vote. Small, aggressive and prone to being economic with the truth, we all got the feeling he was not giving us the full picture. That was one prediction that turned out to be correct.
Villain of the season: Easy. Got to be the Fifa executive committee. It's not just the technical and economic reports into England's 2018 World Cup being ignored. I can live with Russia getting 2018 (just about). What makes me despair is that Sepp Blatter and his Fifa executive committee members gave 2022 to Qatar in what is emerging as a corrupt vote. How could anyone ruin anything as wonderful as the World Cup? Somehow they managed it.
Match of the season: Newcastle United 4 Arsenal 4, 5 February. Alan Pardew's team were 4-0 down with 26 minutes played and, while we know how brittle Arsenal are now, at the time they were only four points behind Manchester United and in second place. Once Newcastle had scored two you could feel the momentum shift. Cheik Tioté's equaliser was such a beautiful way to round things off.
Quote of the season: "I see some players kissing the badge when they join a club, but the romance in football has gone. It's a different thing now. Players come and go. When you are joining a club you want to do the best for yourself and that club, and that's all. Some people like to kiss the badge. They can do it." Fernando Torres, 4 February
Ian Herbert, Northern Football Correspondent
Player of the season: Ryan Giggs. Fewer games and no BBC Sports Review of the Year gong, certainly, but at the age 37, his ability to compete defies all logic. His performance at Blackpool and at Chelsea in the Champions League will live on.
Performance of the season Jack Wilshere's display in the Nou Camp. The silver lining to Arsenal's 3-1 defeat on 8 March was Wilshere's ability to receive the ball in the tightest of spaces, with three or four men around him, and be comfortable anyway.
Unsung hero of the season: An engaging lunch with Roy Hodgson back in November, talking Paris, Liverpool architecture and Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon's BBC series The Trip, revealed a manager just starting to grow into Anfield. His dismissal cut him and it was a mark of the man he put it behind him and took West Brom to safety.
Encounter of the season: An interview with David Platt at Carrington. The build-up to the all-Manchester FA Cup semi final was raging and Platt cut through all the hype to speak of his early United days and provide the most illuminating insight yet into Roberto Mancini.
Villain of the season: Tom Hicks, who took Liverpool to such a precipice that the club's dirty linen had to be aired in the High Court as he was removed. There was solace in the unforgettable court performance display of Anthony Grabiner QC who memorably exploded the "grotesque parody" of Hicks and was later cheered along The Strand.
Match of the season: Stoke City 0 Wigan Athletic 1. The football wasn't divine but the theatre was sublime because we knew that Wigan, once relegated, would probably not return in a generation, and because Roberto Martinez is marvellous.
Quote of the season: "Get down to the library and read a book. Seriously – it's a waste of time." Sir Alex Ferguson on the joys of Twitter.
