(CNN) -- Afghan President Hamid Karzai dismissed the country's national intelligence chief on Wednesday -- a move that coincides with other Cabinet-level shakeups as Karzai's government struggles to confront security challenges posed by Taliban fighters and an impending NATO withdrawal.
Rahtamullah Nabil, 42, whose two-year term has expired, is to step down from his post atop the National Directorate of Security, said a presidential spokesman who declined to be named.
He is expected to hand over the position to Karzai loyalist Asadullah Khalid.
The Pashtun leader is the nation's current minister of tribal and border affairs, but has come under scrutiny for alleged human rights abuses.
"This is a government with a checkered past that has come under serious accusations of torture," said Heather Barr, a Kabul-based spokeswoman for Human Rights Watch. "So the leadership of this institution really needs to be someone who is above suspicion."
The NDS is Afghanistan's main intelligence agency that reports directly to the president and National Assembly.
But perhaps more indicative of an Afghan government at odds is Karzai's choice for replacements at the Ministries of Defense and Interior, which have been vacant for weeks.
The Afghan president tapped Bismillah Khan Mohammedi -- a politically connected former Interior Minister -- to head up the Defense Ministry.
The move is expected to stir discord among parliament lawmakers who recently dismissed the Tajik leader from his post at the Interior Ministry, citing corruption and his lack of ability to stem cross-border attacks from Pakistani-based militants.
Ghulam Mujtaba Patang, a senior Afghan security official, is to head up the Interior Ministry, the spokesman said.
The cabinet shakeup comes ahead of the country's 2014 presidential elections, which also coincides with the drawdown date for NATO forces.

About KonaOld Hawaii's legends and a spectacular setting will make your visit in one of our Kona luxury rentals a royal one. Today, Kona evokes a private island feel with a seemingly endless stream of seaside landscapes, quiet activity, sumptuous meals and charming boutiques. It's no wonder the dolphins, manta rays and sea turtles alike find it appealing, as will you.
Things To Do
Kona's soft sunny shores and rugged lava terrain provide a duality to revel in—somehow, it's possible to enjoy an island escape with glimpses of a New England vacation. Multiple National Historical Parks include Kealakekua, Kaloko-Honokohau and Puuhonua o Honaunau. Kona's Big Island will enthrall, with its patches of diversity: colorful marine life, petroglyphs and buildings in which Hawaiian royalty once vacationed.
Swim, hike, snorkel and sunbath; every corner turned reveals an ancient temple, volcanic areas and an art community. You'll feel at home in your Kona luxury rental and find that the remarkable views tempt you to stay in your own sanctuary.
Eat and Shop
The resort area and private island mystique offers its share of upscale dining, seaside eateries and lively nightlife. Reach beyond the myriad of cuisines and make sure to explore Kona's best local dishes—the Kona mix plate, island fish and chips, and the bakeries with great breakfasts and sandwiches (perfect for picnics on the beach or hikes to the National Parks). Nearby Kailua adds to the varied selection of Kona. Make sure to find time to visit a coffee farm and sample the island's acclaimed Kona coffee.
Kona shopping is an experience in itself because there are no commercialized malls; rather, you'll find a smattering of boutiques and galleries packed with local crafts and art, jewelry, souvenirs worthy to find space for and gourmet foods, including coffee. The farmers' market will give you a taste of life as locals live it, plus it's the place for organic and fresh foods when you want to stay in and cook and enjoy a great meal in your Kona rentals extraordinary surroundings.
Getting Around

Married 70 years, Pittsburgh Couple Die Day Apart
PITTSBURGH (AP) -- A Pittsburgh couple married for 70 years have died a day apart.
Their daughter, Suzanne Rosenberger, says her 95-year-old father fell ill after saying goodbye to her 91-year-old mother and died the next day.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that the couple, Robert and Eleanor Schilling, died in late May at a personal care home.
Rosenberger says her mother could barely remember life before meeting her father. She says her mother ignored her family's wishes when she ran off to get married in April 1944.
Their marriage endured even though Eleanor Schilling was Republican and Protestant, while her husband was a Catholic Democrat. Rosenberger recalls that Sundays were "interesting."
The Schillings are survived by three children, four grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Georgia attorney general: Law blocks drug testing
Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens is agreeing with federal officials that U.S. law blocks drug-testing requirements for food stamp recipients.
Olens wrote Gov. Nathan Deal on Friday saying that the U.S. Agriculture Department is correct in stating the law bans states from creating eligibility requirements for people who get benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
Deal previously signed a law calling for recipients suspected of drug abuse to undergo testing.
But Olens says the state law isn't allowable under federal law.
Olens says the state provisions shouldn't be implemented in Georgia unless there's a change in federal law.
In Florida, a similar proposal requiring drug tests for food stamp recipients was declared unconstitutional by federal courts.

Pricing: It Is NOT About The Numbers
Pricing is one of the core 4Ps of marketing. It's integral to achieving your business objectives. For most businesses, this translates to profits, aka ROI.
Scared of dealing with numbers, marketers, business executives and solopreneurs guess at the "perfect" price rather than ensuring their prices are aligned with the rest of their marketing. The problem is that social media and mobile have changed pricing and increased price transparency. Source: Heidi Cohen's Actionable Marketing Blog
Direct Marketing ABCs – Digital, Social Media & Mobile Included
Direct marketing solicits an immediate action such as an order, application or registration.

Godfather Marketing: Make Them an Offer They Can't Refuse
When the Godfather spoke, everyone listened. Is the same true of your marketing? Everyone took Don Vito Corleone, played by Marlon Brando seriously, when he said to his godson, Johnny Fontane in The Godfather, "I'll make him an offer he can't refuse." For the Godfather, that meant do as I say or I'll kill you. While marketers don't need to go to that extreme, they must develop effective offers related to marketing's traditional 4Ps. Here are fifty offer-related questions to help construct your offer. (Note: Include this as part of your mid-year marketing checkup.)

How Social Media Has Changed Marketing's 4Ps
When the Mad Men roamed boardrooms of major brands, marketing focused on the 4Ps: Product, Price, Place and Promotion. To stand out, Trout and Ries introduced the notion of positioning which they called the battle for your mind. Fast forward to 2010 where digital marketers still incorporate the 4Ps into their plans, social media has altered the nature of the 4Ps. Here's how…

Senate committee to vote on medical marijuana regulations
A New Hampshire Senate committee is expected to vote Tuesday morning on a bill that would allow licensed medical marijuana patients or their caregivers to grown their own plants.
State lawmakers have already approved the use of medical marijuana, but so far they have not developed a system to regulate treatment centers.
Under the bill, patients would be allowed up to two mature marijuana plants and 12 immature plants or seedlings. However, they would have to give them up if a treatment center opens within 30 miles of their home.

Check engine and ESC OFF lights came on. I shut it off started again knocking noise was gone but it was still running rough. After5 min I shut it off and restarted again and it was fine. The check engine light is still on.I got scared when I heard the knocking noise. I will take it to a mechanic tomorrow but please help me with your ideas. Thank you.

This set is working out just great. It's currently anchoring a large open loft space. The combination of walnut finish and twill fabric is simply stunning. The tone of the wood hits just the right note of warmth with a tinge of classicism. It looks incredible in the middle of the space atop a big old Turkish rug. The pieces are super sturdy and were obviously constructed with the highest standards in mind. This set easily looks like I paid twice as much. Considering the high quality and low price, it's a great bargain. Seven pieces for under $$$ is a deal.
Absolutely love this set... The very first chair part we opened was damaged. But, my husband is quite handy, and was able to use glue and staples to mend the broken piece. I thought that would be easier than going thru the hastle of returning one piece. I'm giving this set 4 stars because the top of the table is very soft wood, and scratches easily. I always use a table cloth and chargers, and then remove them when we're done. Overall, I love this set and will have it for years to come.
Ever since I got this set, I have been entertaining more. The spaciousness and comfort of this set simply demands big, glorious feasts! The seats are very comfortable and the table is large and quite sturdy and stable. There was minimal assembly that was easy and in just half and hour or so, the dining room was looking amazing.
Although one of the chairs was broken I am really satisfied with this dining set. It arrived in no time and after assembled it looks just as fantastic as on picture. The chairs are comfortable and great looking, while the table is large enough to serve the dinner comfortably. My dining room is refreshed and became warm and familial with this beautiful set.
The table and chairs are very attractive and seem to be well-built, The problem I'm having is related to the leaf. The leaf that we received with the initial purchase had almost a 1 inch bow between the ends and the middle and was completely unusuable. We requested a replacement leaf, also bowed. We have now received 3 replacement leafs, all of which are significantly bowed and can't be forced into the table. We needed the leaf in order to expand to an 8 person dining set but I don't know if the company is capable of sending a flat leaf that will actually fit into the table. In trying to resolve the issue with Overstock, customer service representatives have been very nice and responsive but no reasonable resolution has been found. My only real recourse is to disassemble the set (which took 6 - 8 hours to fully assemble in the first place) and repackage for a refund. We like the set but we may end up spending another day to take the set apart and send it back since we really need the full 8 person option.
My issue with this piece is that the original leaf that was sent was bowed. They sent another one. That was bowed as well. My husband was able to get the leaf in. The table looks nice but I doubt we can ever get that leaf out!
As we moved into a larger house I managed to develop a huge dining room. Having many children I needed a large dining set. This one was the perfect choice. It is not only affordable, but all the pieces are top quality and comfortable. The set arrived in no time and once assembled I received an elegant and simple set. I love it.
The rubber wood with walnut finish and the classic and simple design make this set look fantastic. I love simple and comfortable furniture and this great set was the perfect option. Assemble took up time, but once finished the look is amazing. Large enough for our big family and top quality.

NAO tells HMRC: Pick up, dammit
The National Audit Office has told HM Revenue and Customs it has to make more improvements to its telephone services.

Part Year outsourcing?!?
Yes I really think my tax affairs are going to be sorted by an underpaid student reading from a script. Anyway HMRC staff sign a version of the official secrets act so that's going to work with the transient staff typical of multi use call centres.
HMRC and Official Secrets
How many different versions of the Official Secrets Acts are there?
There is only one. The act was created in 1911 with amendments made to the act in 1989.
The official secrets act is signed by just about everybody that works for a government department.
There's a question if they really need to sign it, as most don't come into contact with classified material. (It covers unclassified material too) It's used as a blanket to make sure any government employee doesn't reveal any information they come across in their job - in my opinion, a f**ng big blanket.
Even statements made to the Police by witnesses are actually classified! I know this because when I made a complaint to the Police..the paper forms containing the complainants statements were marked "RESTRICTED".

HMRC don't give you valid phone numbers
Sussex Accounts Recovery in St Leonards on Sea wrote to me in November accusing me of not having paid a months Tax/National Insurance for my Business - I had in fact paid. They invited me to phone them to discuss. The phone number quoted on the top of the letter is permanently engaged, and I mean permanently - I can never get it to ring, even out of hours.
Any attempt to find an alternative phone number via Google and local Governement websites only results in a British Telecomm intercept with "sorry that number is no longer in operation".
I phoned the HMRC Employer Helpline who admitted that they didn't have an alternative number for Sussex Recovery, and that they had had similar complaints, and that they "don't know what's going on down in St Leonards".

Taking Our Ball Back: Spurs Writer Martin Cloake On Football's Culture Wars
In a down-at-heel corner of southeast London the Holmesdale Fanatics are not just getting behind their team, they're taking giant steps towards reclaiming football for the fans. These Crystal Palace supporters stand, sing, wave banners and flags and generally have a good time. Known in the past for restrained loyalty, the atmosphere in this old fashioned ground lifts the team and intimidates opponents, bringing Liverpool's seemingly irresistible sprint for the League Championship to a grinding halt at the end of last season. The ground was rocking and so were the Reds' title hopes. The result was a draw but the experience unforgettable.
The Fanatics are amongst the most active and vocal participants in a movement loosely known as against modern football. High ticket prices, regimented stewarding inside and outside grounds, the fixture list the plaything of Sky TV, the dominance of the Premier League and the Champions League, all these and more have alienated large swathes of football's core support and kept an entire generation of young fans firmly in their armchairs in front of the tele. Yesterday the results of the BBC Price of Football survey shows the stratospheric PL seat prices – Spurs have the third most expensive seat after Arsenal and Chelsea – and rises substantially outstripping inflation.
There's a distance between us and the game we love. We call it the People's Game – perhaps it never really was but for 90 minutes every fortnight, at least it felt that way. It's been a recurring topic on Tottenham on My Mind, for example here and here because it's changing the way we relate to our club. Spurs fans are amongst the most loyal there can be yet this resentment at being exploited by the club is at the root of the poor atmosphere at many home games. Average performances are a factor but we're used to those by now. It's the underlying alienation that makes it worse.
But hang on a minute. You'd think the groundswell of opinion would become a tidal wave of change, but you'd be mistaken because not every fan sees it the same way. Many are quite happy in front of their 42″ plasma screens – expensive but affordable, watch every match in the comfort of your own home.
Or how about this from the Manchester City Supporters Club. In a statement regarding Financial Fair Play they have joined a legal action against FFP because it discriminates against clubs, or more precisely against the rule that is "a prohibition to invest that prevents ambitious owners to develop their clubs, that therefore shields the established European elite from being challenged."
In other words they're complaining that their owners can't spend even more money than the squillions already invested. Breaking even is bad. I get the established elite bit but surely FFP, however flawed the current rules may be, aims to encourage clubs to operate within their means and broaden the opportunities for clubs to reach the elite in ways other than finding a sugardaddy.
Their language is as interesting as their logic. They demand a hearing as "consumers of the football product", not as supporters even though the club was established in 1949. They conclude by saying they are doing this in the interests of all supporters of non-elite clubs, apparently oblivious of the fact that to the rest of us, they are the elite. Seems a far cry from the Holmesdale End.
In this mixed-up mumbled-up shook-up world, reading Martin Cloake's new book Taking Our Ball Back: English Football's Culture Wars is an essential route map out of this quicksand. Part compilation of existing essays from the New Statesman, In Bed With Maradona and elsewhere, part new material, it's the best single-volume coverage of football culture and support in the modern era. Long-time (and long-suffering) Spurs fan, Martin understands terrace culture and was actively protesting against the closure of the Shelf and other iniquitous developments at the club long before anybody coined the term 'against modern football'. Combine that with his journalist's eye for a story and the acumen of someone who has been writing about finance as well as football for many years and you have a sense of the depth and breadth of the book.
There's plenty of fascinating detail but Martin is not afraid to confront the big questions about the future of football. This is about a battle over the definition of what football is and what it means to be a supporter, timely given many are questioning their . Many of the examples are familiar to Spurs fans and readers of this blog. He piles into Stubhub and the 'Y word' debate is a perfect example of how the law has been used unfairly to target football fans. His incisive approach to the football authorities slices through the hypocrisy and flannel. Throughout explicit links to history and culture provide perspective and solidity that's absent from most debate around these fundamental issues. For example, the discussion on the 'new ultras', including our own 1882 movement, is situated in a broader context of oppositional culture and protest. The very different topics of business and football and the law in football, vital but often overlooked, are placed in context too.
Where Taking Our Ball Back really scores over other writing on the topic is that it manages a nuanced approach without losing any of the power of its argument. Many may be against modern football but It's just not that simple. A variety of currents are attempting to preserve the game's meaning, as I've indicated above, and this is one of the few books able to disentangle the various strands. The problem fans may have to deal with in the future is less about conflict with the clubs and more about conflict between groups of supporters, all claiming righteous salvation through their approach but in fact representing very different interests.
Taking Our Ball Back adroitly handles these topics in a readable, accessible manner. Times are changing. The sense of place and belonging that surrounds clubs, the link between club and community, is less important as each year goes by because of the national and global consumption of the PL. There's a real danger of these foundations shaking and with it our identity as supporters and therefore, because this bloody club means so much to so many, the foundations of how we see ourselves as individuals becoming shaky too. As Martin says, "modern football seeks to replace community with commodity."
Unreservedly recommended, and continue the discussion on Tottenham On My Mind because these issues are coming to a head at Spurs. Prices remain high, morale low, the prospect of the lowest WHL crowd for years next week and waiting in the wings the new ground and a possible move to Milton Keynes. For £3.04 on Kindle and only £6.97 in paperback, you can't go wrong.

Positive About Poch
Youngish Spurs manager seeking to make the best of the resources he has available without the full and unconditional support of his chairman. A squad of good players, mostly on the up, looking for direction so they can improve as individuals and as a team. Put the two together and some alchemy could result in solid in gold. Or a flask of bubbling gloop, useless to man or beast, in which case back to the drawing board.
I like the way Pochettino goes about his business. He's centred, poised in the calm, unostentatious way of a man who is sure about his own ability without teetering over the edge into the abyss of arrogance. Which comes as a welcome relief after AVB, Redknapp and Sherwood, all of whom loved the limelight in their different ways. Tim the Temp is STILL banging on about 'my Spurs' whenever the Independent let him anywhere near a keyboard, for Hod's sake.
Yesterday in the 2-2 draw against Sunderland there was much to admire in the Spurs performance. No doubt still smarting from their roasting a fortnight ago, Tottenham followed Liverpool's example and took a high tempo game deep into our opponent's half from the kick-off. It paid off with an early goal then despite conceding almost immediately, we dominated territory and possession with some decent football, pass and move, one-twos. The manager's message is clearly getting through to a bunch of players who are willing to listen.
Shame then that our old pals the Feebles had to turn up to ruin the party. Two feeble bits of defending when not under any great pressure did for us. We score, we concede. They go together like a horse and carriage. I tell you brother, at Spurs you can't have one without the other. 2-1 up, last ten minutes, stupid free-kick given away, defenders conspire to avoid the cross and Harry Kane clumsily knocks it in at the far post. Two points needlessly given away.
Woke up this morning, had those post-window blues. I don't expect that Spurs will spunk a fortune on players, I don't even advocate it. Rather, the end of the August window marks the start of the season proper and we're not any further forward than we were a couple of years ago. That opening paragraph is strikingly, depressingly similar to what I was writing about AVB and Spurs after his first window ended.
Here's another blast from the past – strikers, lack thereof. I am flabbergasted that a professional club in any league could leave themselves so short of striking options. Adebayor did well yesterday, kept in touch with the midfield rather than remaining isolated, but a full season at maximum intensity is asking too much and anyway he could be away for the ANC. Kane is developing well but nowhere near ready to lead the line on a regular basis. I hope Pochettino can do something with Soldado but we can hardly rely on him. The fact that Spurs have made this mistake for the last few seasons does not diminish the frustration and fury.
So how did this happen? Conspiracy or cock-up? Levy may have been reluctant to release funds, what with a stadium to pay for. I can't believe Pochettino didn't ask for another goalscorer. Not asking for a world-beater but there must have been someone out there. This one could well have been cock-up, however. A journo I follow on twitter, Spurs fan but not a sportswriter, said he had been told a sorry tale of mistakes made. No details of course but as his paper led the following day on Welbeck's arrival at the Emirates, I wonder if Spurs thought he was coming and had no contingency. Whatever, this wanton negligence could prove costly. The sense of settling for a reasonable season instead of trying to make something more ambitious happen is inescapable.
The delay in the new stadium has been in the news this week. Again, conspiracy or cock- up? Archway Steel, the last remaining business on the site, have appealed against their compulsory purchase order. It's their right and they want to play what they feel is a seller's market for all its worth. Their intentions were made clear in a swiftly deleted tweet: after the announcement they stated "on my way to don'tgiveaf**kistan."
Levy could pay up. Lot of talk about how poor Spurs have been in getting the job done but I'll accept these things are not straightforward and if public finance is available, Levy had the right to wait for it to appear and the CPO has held it up. Arsenal took years to sort out the Ashburnum site.
He doesn't like being beaten in a deal but it's an option. Which begs the question: how much does he want to build it? There may be more profit for ENIC if they sell with planning permission but no stadium, and this week there appears to have been some interest from potential buyers. Many believe the new ground is inevitable but won't be built by ENIC.
As ever the fans are left looking on, powerless. We are affected the most and consulted the least. Archway Steel have changed the language of the debate. We now must, repeat must, move to another ground while WHL is being rebuilt because of this delay, at least according to the press. Convenient. The original plan allowed for one season with a three sided ground, i.e. no move. I read that a subsequently amended design means the roof has to be built in one go. The fuss around Archway Steel is being used by the club to soften us up for the move, as if the club have no choice. Not their fault. But where we end up is their responsibility. Totally. MK Dons is the likely destination at the moment. THFC would be hard pushed to find a venue in the south east that would be less popular. The interests of supporters must be the highest priority, indeed in my view the only issue to consider. I'm not holding my breath.
This remains an unwelcome distraction. At the beginning of the season, it felt as if we were moving forward but the window plus the stadium and ownership questions mean the clouds of uncertainty have blown over again. Pochettino is our big positive. His organisation is seeping into the team's rhythm. He's already making good use of the resources at his disposal. The players are motivated and want to play decent football. The Argentinian is our key man this season.
Back to the game. Spurs took the game to Sunderland and dictated the pattern and tempo with sustained spells of controlled possession football. Eriksen was to the fore, especially in opening hour. He's looked sluggish so far this term but in a more central role he shone, making things happen. One lofted first-time one-two into the box was a delight – Manu's touch was blocked by the keeper. He started the move that led to our second and then ran 40 yards to finish it off. Dembele was strong, able to push into an advanced position because we dominated up front. His thumping thirty-yarder deserved more than hitting the woodwork. Lamela was similarly unlucky in the second half.
Sunderland had few opportunities but Spurs looked unduly shaky when the ball came their way. Chiriches looks permanently anxious. Johnson had too much room as he weaved his way goalwards for their first, the second could have been stopped at several points.
Mood Swings at Spurs
One of the finest Spurs strikers of modern times tips a bucket of cold water over a man in a chicken suit. Another Glory Glory night at White Hart Lane. For those of you who missed it, the half-time entertainment against Limassol was Chirpy doing the ice bucket challenge, having been nominated by Goonersauraus. People videoed it or rather videoed the video on the big screen. Not quite sure what they expected – Chirpy's expression didn't change, surprisingly.
The match itself was decidedly ordinary, just the way I like it when it comes to these early rounds of the Europa League. Get through it, bit of decent football along the way, no other expectations. And that's praise by the way – the team were confident, kept their shape and maintained the pressure throughout. Kane scored one but missed several – he seems better when he doesn't have too much to think, his one and two touch play is better than when he has time on the ball. Developing well but not yet ready to lead the line.
Slightly bizarre to see the AVB attacking set-up with Lennon and Townsend as inverted wingers and Paulinho in the centre. Poch now knows it's not effective but he could have asked me and saved himself the trouble. My only gripe was that this was a match crying out for width and wingers taking defenders on. In the end our goals came from exerting pressure – twice the Cypriots gave the ball away, the third a penalty – but we created that pressure and well-taken by Kane and Paulinho.
Good to see so many children with their families, benefiting from reasonable prices in the school holidays. To me a routine win, to them a special occasion that could mean they are fans for life. Spurs are keeping prices down for the Forest cup tie too – I'd designate an area that is even cheaper, just for families. WHam get stick for not filling their ground but they do kids for a quid for some games. It's an investment that will pay off in the long-term.
When Spurs played Keflavik in the early seventies, I bumped into several pupils from my school, not regulars like me or even Tottenham fans as far as I could tell, who had travelled from west London in the hope of a goal avalanche. No live football on TV in those days, of course, so this was the only way to see the Spurs stars and europe held some magic even if the opposition were part-timers. They weren't disappointed – Spurs won 9-0. Times have changed. Sides with limited skills like Limassol are impressively well-drilled and dangerous from set pieces but we broke them down without being at our most fluent.
The game may linger in the memory, however, as the final time we see several players who once, not so long ago, represented our future and a healthy one at that. Sandro the beast bossing midfield and terrorising his opposite numbers into submission. He did well enough on Thursday night and let's not be too presumptuous but the feeling persists that a succession of injuries have permanently deprived him of that precious half a yard that makes the difference between the average and the good, the good and the great. The manager has had a good look at his new charges now and placed Capoue higher up the pecking order with other more mobile players alongside him. Levy will be excited by the fee so that may be that. A shame – I really thought he could be one of our best buys, powerful, skilled and committed. DM for a decade.
We've barely got to know Chiriches but rumours of his departure are rife. A ball-playing defender able to turn defence into attack as well as time a tackle perfectly, centre-forwards can out-muscle him too easily when the ball is in the air. I worry though that Kaboul is not fit enough for a season. He's lost the supple pace that made him stand out. Welcome Favio but with Daws gone we still look short there so maybe Vlad the Paler will stay.
Holtby too – he must know his time is up if he can't get into the EL home leg starting line-up. He could do with thinking more and running around less but he's seldom played. I've remarked before that in his first year with us, he played only 4 games for 90 full minutes. He came with a good reputation and looked like he had a place in the squad at least but interesting that 4 managers, including Magath at Fulham, were unimpressed. Whether there's a place for both Lennon and Townsend I'm not sure.
Spurs have gone old school when it comes to transfers – players we know little or nothing about arriving with little or no warning. It's refreshing to look forward to judging Stambouli, who signed today, on his merits and on the evidence of our own eyes.
It does feel as if he and Favio were not first choices, if the rumours about Schneiderlin and Musacchio have any substance. That's no bad thing. Pochettino has a clear idea of the type of player he wants. If we can't get our first choice, try hard then move on. It is an approach that largely seems to have been accepted by the fans and this marks a singifcant change of mood. Since Pochettino took over, I have seen very few comments from supporters along the lines of 'where are the big signings, Levy get your cheque book out, we need stars to take us to the next level.' In that respect I can't recall a transfer window like it and it's all for the good. There's a willingness to have realistic expectations and allow an able manager to mould a team where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Fans are prepared to buy into that, which has not been the case recently.
Perhaps it's relief and gratitude after Sherwood's caretakership. It's gone well so far but the mood may darken if results turn against us. I do sense however that many are looking beyond just the next result. The problem is that with all the upheavals, yet again the manager has to rebuild the side with new players who need time to get to know each other. Let's get the window out of the way and get on with it. I'm looking forward to it.
A fond farewell to Michael Dawson, our warrior with a heart. Dawson was a much better defender than most give him credit for. His finest hours were in Europe, backs to the wall and penned deep inside the box versus Milan, he refused to give ground and marked Zlatan out of the game. One late late tackle saved the game.
To play to his strengths, he needed protection from the midfield that seldom came. Not an excuse, just fact. Look at how Terry and Kompany are vulnerable when deprived of a midfield shield. Coming as a makeweight in the deal to bring Andy Reid to transform our midfield, he saw his chance and took it rather than just a hefty pay packet, working hard on his game and in the process developing a genuine loyalty to the club that sadly few have matched. I couldn't believe the criticism he has recently received from some fans because he wanted to stay and fight for his place.
His time has come. His lack of pace on the turn left him and Spurs exposed too often, although that long cross-field pass he is derided for – 4 managers all encouraged him to do it so I reckon it can't have been that bad. It's a shame none of the other players appear to feel the club's heritage and bond with supporters so deeply. When he made an error, he used to give himself a good talking to and slap his thighs in part punishment, part encouragement. I loved him, never forgotten.
For more tributes, Adam Powley's love letter, Windy and Martin Cloake have said it more eloquently than I could.
Lloris and Eriksen Play Them On Their Own
If Spurs' scabby season is remembered for anything, it will be for the anger and despondency generated as raised expectations were crushed by profligate ineptitude. Its symbolic moment, the peg on which we can hang our memories, took place yesterday just before half time.
Stewart Downing's free kick was heading plumb for the centre of Tottenham's wall. Paulinho and Adebayor moved out of the way and the Whammers had won the match. When it came to it, two of our most experienced players avoided their responsibilities. It wasn't a powerful shot. All they had to do was stand there but they couldn't even be bothered to do that. Any semblance of organisation fell apart at the slightest pressure.
As he left the field a minute or so later, Hugo Lloris shook his head slowly and puffed out his cheeks. Paulinho and Adebayor's instinctive reaction was to turn their backs on their ball and in so doing on their team-mates. They had let him and their team-mates down. You may be playing well or badly, in our case very badly, but you stick together. Apparently not at Tottenham Hotspur.
The impact on Hugo was greater than on any other Spurs player. Leading from the back, he was outstanding throughout, giving his all in a game that to most of his colleagues appeared meaningless, judging by their lack of effort or application. He threw himself to all four corners of his net and of his area, fingertipping low shots round the post, holding the straight ones and fearlessly venturing into the muscle and elbows of a packed penalty box to punch the danger away. If he is planning to leave it didn't show but frankly after this, who can blame him.
The turning point was Kaboul's dismissal on 25 minutes. After a sedate opening when Spurs played some decent football, it all fell apart when the centre half pulled Downing down as he rushed towards our box. Last man so was gone. Personally I would have backed Hugo against Downing so Kaboul was at best clumsy, reckless more like. Lloris saved Carroll's thundering free-kick, of course he did, but Carroll headed in from the resultant corner via a deflection off the top of Harry Kane's head.
In a season where we've seen some rubbish, Spurs formed a rabble and stank the place out to high heaven. Having no idea is bad enough, they had no inclination to do anything about it. Paulinho, such a disappointment, sauntered around. I swear he kept looking at his watch to see how long he had to put up with it, or maybe he was checking the times of the planes to Rio. He certainly wasn't interested in playing for Tottenham. Dawson tried his best, Siggy was in headless chicken mode and Eriksen tried to make sense of how professionals could play this poorly. I couldn't work it out and neither could he, but at least he did something about it. Otherwise, I would rather be locked in a broomcupboard with Piers Morgan, John Terry and a box of two-week old rotting fish than watch this.
In contrast, Wham were totally committed. I've seen them a lot this season and despite their muscular approach they can be vulnerable. Instead, they were first to every tackle and loose ball, although they didn't have to work that hard because we gave the ball away so frequently. Bear in mind they have had their troubles too, with the added pressure of being sucked into the relegation places, yet they took on their challenge rather than run away from it as we did.
Sherwood's half-time talk had a marginally beneficial effect although it's hard to imagine how we could have played any worse. He moved us more centrally, sacrificing width for more bodies in the middle. Lennon stayed busy. Eriksen stood out with hard work and a couple of superb runs but his skills provoked a feeble response from the rest. He was excellent, while Lloris continued to excel too. 10 v 11 is hard enough but this was 2 v 11.
Couple more things to make you feel even worse, if that's possible. Carroll is Wham's dangerman. Kaboul was marking him at set-pieces. When he was sent off, Spurs failed to react quickly enough. Kane seemed to be marking him for the corner that followed the free-kick. That was a mistake that led to the goal. Daws tried to get to him but too late. It was always a mis-match. No one on the field or on the bench reacted quickly enough. There was time to bring Chiriches on after the free-kick but before the corner. Sherwood was too slow and by such margins games are won and lost.
And then there's Danny Rose. While the focus was on Kaboul's foul, moments before Spurs' back line pushed right up to the halfway line. As Downing ran through, Rose let him go. Before Downing's free-kick, Rose gave the ball away when under little pressure in his own half, misdirecting a simple pass. Inexcusable on both counts.
On Friday I questioned the emotional commitment of the current squad. I doubt that playing for Spurs means as much as it should, therefore when it comes to giving that little extra, they are found wanting and that the way forward is to build regular, personal links between supporters and players so they understand the heritage and meaning of being Spurs.
This game exposed the yawning chasm between fan and player. This may be the end of the season but it's a derby, it means something. Because of this, the fans give more but most of the players couldn't give a hoot. The supporters who went not only paid a lot of money but took some massive stick. That's what happens at a derby. The players could at least give something back. Disgraceful. No wonder we get angry.
It comes from the top. Levy's appointment of a caretaker signalled that we had limited ambitions for this season but this blog has effectively been about that dereliction of duty and nothing else for the past few months so no more about it now. A few paragraphs above, without thinking about it, I wrote 'they' not 'we' when talking about the club. Slip of the keyboard maybe but it's a small but telling example of how many supporters feel about the current situation. We're not all in this together.

Macomb County smoking ban approved
Smokers in Macomb County will have to think twice before they light up thanks to a new smoking ordinance approved Thursday night by the Macomb County Board of Commissioners.
Study: Smoking ban doesn't have negative economic impact
The new ordinance prohibits lighting up within 100 feet of entryways in county owned and operated buildings. It also prohibits smoking near windows that can be opened and air intake systems. The ban will apply to cigarettes, cigars and pipes.
Violators would be hit with a $100 fine for a first offense. A second offense would mean a $250 fine and a third offense would be a $500 fine.
The changes won't be implemented immediately.

Parents frustrated as mold closes Hinsdale Middle School
Burr Ridge resident Alessio Foracappa is frustrated that his twin daughters will miss more school.
His daughters and other Hinsdale Middle School students were told to stay home this week after mold was detected in the building.
"It's a pain and an inconvenience," Foracappa said. "I don't know what they are going to do at home all day."
During an emergency meeting Tuesday night, District 181 school board members mulled options for how to handle instruction of students while Hinsdale Middle School is closed.
Staff recommended keeping the school closed the rest of this week to give time for cleaning. They also recommended implementing a split schedule at Clarendon Middle School, starting on Monday if the ductwork is not cleaned by Sunday. During a split schedule, students from Clarendon Hills Middle School would attend from 7 to 11:30 a.m. and students from HMS would attend from noon to 4:30 p.m. The split schedule would last until whenever Hinsdale Middle School reopens.
The board did not make a decision before press time late Tuesday evening.
Foracappa was among the more than 100 parents and teachers who attended an earlier emergency school board meeting Monday, the first after school officials discovered the potentially harmful mold.
School District 181 officials said deep cleaning and mold mitigation must take place in the school before students can return to the school. School board members agreed at the emergency meeting to pay cleaning contractor, SERVPRO, $384,512 to clean out the duct system and to remove baseboard and some drywall. SERVPRO officials, however, said about 90 percent of the mold has already been removed from the building located at 100 S. Garfield St., in Hinsdale.
A contractor initially found mold after water damage occurred when a pipe burst during a frigid cold snap. Classes at the school have been canceled since Jan. 17 to allow for cleaning.
School Board President Marty Turek said the No. 1 issue is the safety of students and teachers who work in that building. "We are doing everything we possibly can," Turek said. "There are a lot of people doing a lot of work (to fix the problem)."
Parents and teachers told school board members that students and faculty had been experiencing health problems long before the pipe burst at the school. But SERVPRO and Integrity officials said an inspection and air test samples in November indicated no noticeable mold problems.
Parent Kathy Hanley, of Hinsdale, told the board her daughter has experienced health problems in the building for a long time.
"Every day she would come home with a runny nose and watery eyes," Hanley said. "It was consistent with attending school because she was fine on the weekends."
Christine Maxwell, a reading specialist at the school, recently told the Tribune she has long been worried about the air quality in the school and its impact on the health of students and staff. She said conditions have recently gotten worse.
After returning from the holiday break, she said she experienced a sinus headache, itchy eyes, cough, laryngitis and dizziness.
"We have medically fragile students who are affected (asthma, allergies, heart conditions, autoimmune) and staff (asthma, allergies, as well as pregnancies)," sixth-grade teacher Heather Scott said.
Superintendent Renee Schuster said the district will schedule a meeting the evening before school resumes so parents and staff can tour the facility and hear reports from representatives from SERVPRO and Integrity Environmental Services.
As of press time Tuesday evening, officials said classes might not resume until Jan. 28, and they had not yet decided how the missed time will be made up. Bridget McGuiggan, a district spokesperson, said Tuesday afternoon the district has several options. One would be to use previously scheduled non-attendance days. She said the administration has been in contact with the Illinois State Board of Education to clarify its options.
Schuster told the board Monday the district has been looking for alternative locations to hold classes including at local hotels. The board asked Schuster on Monday to investigate the possibility of sending students to Clarendon Hills Middle School at 301 Chicago Ave., in nearby Clarendon Hills. Hinsdale Middle School has more than 800 students.
Schuster said parents and students can receive updates about the situation on the district website at d181.org/hms/facility-updates.

Saturday's Recap from Navy
Saturday's Recap from Holy Cross
Four added to the Hall of Fame
The College Baseball Hall of Fame has elected four new members. The four people were Lou Gehrig, Christy Mathewson, Joe Sewell, and Jack Barry. Lou Gehrig played with the Columbia Lions before joining the New York Yankees and having a great professional career. Mathewson played for Bucknell from 1898-1900, in addition to Baseball, Mathewson played Football and Basketball. Joe Sewell played at Alabama from 1918-1920 and returned to coach the team in 1964 where he compiled a record of 106-79 in five seasons. Sewell and Gehrig were roommates with the New York Yankees which is ironic since they both are great players and contributers to the College Baseball World. Jack Barry played for Holy Cross from 1905-1908 and returned to the school in 1920 to coach the team. Barry is known as the Knute Rockne of the College Baseball World where he compiled a record of 616-150-6 (.802).
The full press release from The College Baseball Foundation is available here in PDF format.
With the baseball season getting around the corner, I would love to change the old career and get a job that would help me attend more College Baseball games. If anyone from the Boston/Providence area reads this blog and needs a college educated Kinesiology major from University of New Hampshire feel free to email me at [email protected] Even if you can take a look at my resume and see how I can improve it also contact me.
I am currently working on some season previews for the upcoming season and have these are some new schedules which have been released lately.
2007 Naval Academy Schedule
Paul Kostacopoulos and the Naval Academy have released their 2007 baseball schedule. The Navy Midshipmen will be led by Mitch Harris who was rated the number 2 pro prospect in the Cal Ripken Sr. League this past summer. The Midshipmen open the season on the road at Florida A & M. They will also take part in the Service Academy Classic in Millington TN from Feb. 23rd-25th. The teams which they are playing are Air Force and NCAA Tournament participant Missouri. Paul Kostacopoulos will also welcome back one of his old assistant coaches from his Providence College days in Charlie Hickey who leads the Regular Season NEC champs in the Central Connecticut State Blue Devils. Hickey was a key member of the Providence coaching staff during Paul's days there and ended up taking over the Providence program when Kostacopoulos left for Maine. The Midshipmen make a trip to Holy Cross this season so The College Baseball Blog will be there attending the games and giving you their insight on the Midshipmen in Late March/Early April. I believe that Navy will continue to raise the profile of their program with the work of Mr. Kostacopoulos and his great coaching ability but they will not beat the Army Cadets this season in the Patriot League.
The full schedule is available here.
Army Baseball releases 2007 schedule
The Army Cadets have released their 2007 schedule. They have a bunch of games down in the South to start the season which is traditional for a northern school. They visit Sam Houston State, Wofford, and UNC Greensboro each for 3 games sets to start the first 3 weekend series. They also have a mid-week out of conference game in Gainesville against the Florida Gators. The rest of their season is made up of Patriot League games and regional games with Cornell, Iona, and Manhattan.
This Army team should be right at the top of the Patriot League this season with All-American candidate pitcher Nick Hill and outfielder/closer Milan Dinga who can hit over 90 MPH. I predict on October 24th, that Nick Hill will pitch the game against the Gators and will give them fits.

Abilene, Kan. -- Storm damage is still being assessed and cleaned up in central Kansas.
Dickinson County Emergency Management Director Chancy Smith describes the hail from Wednesday evening's storm as ranging in sizes from golf balls to baseballs.
Smith says he was measuring the wind speed by holding an anemometer out his car window when a hail stone struck and shattered it. The winds were measured at 58 mph before it broke.
A couple of buildings at The Eisenhower Presidential Library and Boyhood Home grounds were damaged. Executive Director Karl Wiessenbach says it could have been much worse.
"It could have been worse" was the assessment of others in Abilene who remember how bad the hail storm in June, 2011 was.
But there were still several downtown buildings with glass damage to be repaired as well as many vehicles with hail damage.
Joan and Eldon Sims manage the Vita Villa Health store in Abilene. Joan was inside when she says hail the size of softballs slammed the side of the building breaking glass and knocking stones off the building.

Three Western Albemarle High School teenagers charged with underage drinking were in court on Tuesday.
Eighteen year-olds Steven Smith and Jacob Goeke, along with 19-year-old Stewart Macfarlane, pleaded guilty to drinking alcohol at an after-prom party in May.
The teenagers and 13 others were arrested while attending a party in Crozet.
The judge accepted their guilty plea in exchange for pre-conviction probation which includes regular classes on alcohol abuse.
"If they learn from the class, they do the class properly, and they don't get into any further trouble, at some point in the future the charges will be dismissed," said Albemarle County Commonwealth's Attorney's Jim Camblos.
Camblos says the order was standard procedure. The teenagers will have to return to court in June 2007.
