Protestors camping out in groups like Occupy Wall Street arent just at risk of getting arrested, rained on, or frozen in a makeshift tent. Theyre also at risk from germs and other factors that can cause serious illnesses.
New York, hundreds of activists are packed together day and night in
Zuccotti Park, where cigarettes are shared and nobodys getting much
sleep. Already, a lot of activists have whats called Zuccotti
lung, a hacking cough that seems to be spreading from person to person.
expert Dr. Philip Tierno says that people crowded together in tent
camps are also at high risk for respiratory viruses, like tuberculosis
and Norovirus, which causes vomiting and diarrhea and could quickly
overwhelm the camps limited bathroom facilities. In fact, sanitation is
a huge problem with protestors tossing food on the ground to rot and
urinating in bottles instead of waiting in line for the bathroom.
Protestors are also living in damp clothing and carrying rain-soaked
signs, which are perfect for growing mold.
Tierno compares Occupy Wall Street conditions to pilgrimages in Mecca,
where huge groups of campers have come down with respiratory infections and diseases connected to contaminated water, like cholera.
Activists who get sick arent necessarily going home because they
believe getting sick is a badge of honor and just one of the many
sacrifices they have to make for a successful protest.
worse, the illnesses may not be contained in the camp for long, because
Occupy Wall Street protestors have made it a mission to shake the hand
of everyone who passes by.

Check out my blog. I have a few entries on opening theory and some "rules of thumb". It's written by a beginner, so maybe that will help keep pointers simple.
I took a look at one of your games, if I may:
It's an incredibly common removal of the defender idea: when your knight is defending a piece, capturing it or pushing a pawn at it removes the defence of the other piece.
BYP is making math videos now. I'm not skilled at math, maybe someone who is can confirm my suspicion that the videos are trash. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7VwfiwYkws
I didn't watch it all, but it looks like about 10th grade algebra.
BTW, as a student, Algebra is ninth grade level math...but we all take it in 6th or 7th lol..
So what? It's been a while since I took it, and I did say about.
Oh, boy. I hate to say it, but he made a serious error in that simple equation.
Yeah, I saw it. Made a number negative that wasn't supposed to be, right?
Your time spent is appreciated. And I invite anyone else who is so inclined to do the same. I really DO want to improve. I like two things you had to say - "Rook = endgame piece" and "consider 3 moves before you decide". I will take these to heart - thanks!
There is a chance that you suck at chess, but if you are an average person like 95% then you will improve like everybody.
Just "finished" a game with someone who abandoned the match when (presumably) they thought all was lost. What do they hope to gain by doing this? Chess.com mentioned they might have violated the "fair play" policy...?
Feel free to have a go at the game if you wish, too. :-)
I would gladly accept it as a resignation.

I'm sat on the plane home from the Farsight 2011 – Beyond the Search Box event putting together my thoughts on the day. I covered much of the event in real-time on Twitter – the 4+ hours of talk, debate and sometimes joust whizzed by so here is a smash and grab of the things I took away …you'll no doubt get lengthy coverage from far better writers than me so I'm giving you my gut feel of sorts.
- A feisty emcee is worth their weight in gold – Vivek Wadwha
- …especially when you have a controversy the morning of the event meant
- Due to that controversy though, we didn't get as much from the event as we could have. A shame and you have to question the timing of Google's announce of their "news".
- However, there were some nuggets on the future of search
- social will be a key element
- humans will likely still have a part to play in keeping the web orderly
- more natural interfaces are needed/wanted (be they speech, anticipatory search, or crowdsourced)
- Interop in search could open a whole new wave of innovation…but nobody seems keen to make the first move
- Many folks think we're paying for search…obviously indirectly rather than with currency
- The word monopoly came up much more than I expected…and usually not in reference to Microsoft
- The future of search is verbs – still noodling on this one but my inclination is that it supports the Bing notion of being a decision engine. I may be wrong
- Kudos to Stefan, Big Think and the Bing folks for pulling this event together – we need more of this kind of event IMHO. It wasn't perfect but there was an awful lot right about it in terms of pushing forward a discussion on a big topic.
More detailed coverage is below
That's my snapshot view….you can get a blow by blow liveblog from Danny Sullivan who earns my utter respect for being able to liveblog such a fast moving gig. My longer form coverage is below and I also took a bunch of photos that are up on Flickr – please feel free to re-use.
My overall feeling is today did help to move the discussion of search along. Not as much as I would have liked as there was far too much anticipation in the first hour about the big news this morning with accusations of Bing "cheating" by copying Google search results. You could sense blood in the water and though Peter Thiel kicked things off, questioning whether Bing was breaking even and suggesting it was the only potential challenger due to capital costs needed to run search. He also claimed that Powerset (in which he invested) became Bing…which frankly aint true. Anyway, everyone was treating that as the appetizer to the main event.
The main event duly arrived as Harry Shum of Bing, Matt Cutts of Google and Rich Skrenta of Blekko took to the stage for a panel discussion hosted by Vivek Wadwha. He proved to be an interesting selection of emcee – he was feisty, happy to ask the tough questions and had an unpredictability in pronouncing speakers names that kept me amused. Kara Swisher labeled him as snarktastic!
My takeaway from the heated debate that followed is that we didn't learn very much. Each side traded barbs about the whole situation – my sources tell me they were having a chuckle about it all backstage but I'm not so sure. It may have been fun to invite Danny Sullivan up on stage to join the fray but ultimately, this story will play out on the web more than it was going to on stage. Both sides got in some rib tickling punches before Wadwha moved the debate on to why we were really here – The Future of Search.
If I have a complaint, it would be that this topic didn't get addressed enough during the day. The panel session did touch on the subject of how we get some industry standards both in measurement and sharing of data and I can only hope that the conversation continued behind the curtains. Wadwha took an interesting line of thinking that positioned Google as Windows and suggested they needed to open their API's to let everyone else play. Let's not forget Blekko were up on stage too and Rich had some fine points to make about the need to get a lot of the crap off the web – they just announced they're banning a ton of spam sites. At this point the gloves came off again with a discussion of whether AdSense ads are a form of spam and whether Google should open up their data to help everyone clean up the web. This all ended in an interesting but ultimately too short discussion of the role of humans in cleaning the web versus machines.
At the end of all this, did we learn more about the Future of Search? Maybe. It helped to tease out important conversations about sharing of data (intentionally) to make the web a better place. I would also love to see more of the discussion on the role of humans vs. algorithms. We came back to this a little later with when social search came up.
When asked what the future of search is, here's what each panelist offered back
- Google: continue to provide best results for users
- Bing: it's difficult to interpret user intent…we're doubling down on understanding "who", about the user, what they want to do. harness the collective intelligence of the social network
- Blekko: categorize and curate to make search better. the only way to clean up the web is to wikipedia-ize it
Next up, Jaron Lanier – hands up who knew Jaron works for Microsoft? For some reason Jaron's slides didn't show up and he must have been the only dude in the room who hadn't heard about the big story of the morning. I didn't catch much of Jaron's talk and he only spoke for about 5 mins but I did hear him say he'd happily pay 1 penny for search if it were easy – suggesting that it's not easy today. This theme of paying for search came up many times and the consensus was we already pay for search – indirectly.
Next up was Esther Dyson who was my favorite speaker of the day – she was on stage several times and really stuck to a few main themes. She mentioned a discussion with Bill Gates at the D: Conference who said to her the future of search was verbs. If by this Esther and Bill meant search is about us doing stuff, I'm totally with them. I'll come back to another Esther comment later that got me thinking…
Next up, was Di-Ann Eisnor from Waze who broke in to demo mode and talked about crowd sourced traffic/travel info – GPS by your friends if you like. In principle, it seemed great but if you have friends like I do, they'd have great fun in gaming the system to route me into traffic.
The quick fire continued and Blaise Aguera y Arcas was up next. I'm a self-confessed Blaise fan and was slightly alarmed to hear the demo-meister would be delivering a demo free session <yikes>. Fear not, Blaise delivered a Metro-esque presentation highlighting how similar mobile search is to PC based search these days – thus lots more potential in mobile. Danny got a good shot of his slides that I missed – see below
Next up was Kevin Kelly and a panel of folks – Professor Marti Hearst from University of California-Berkeley, Sam Altman, CEO of Loopt and Ty Ahmad-Taylor, CEO of FanFeedr. I missed some of this discussion due to some technical issues (domain password expiration) but of the group, I learned most from Marti and Sam. In particular, I was surprised with Marti's acknowledgment of the work Microsoft is doing around natural user interfaces and the benefit they could have for search. She also touched on the future of search being driven by social search….another area we're focused on with Bing & Facebook. We returned to the discussion of search and verbs and got in to some confusion about what is a noun and a verb but landed on "finding" as the new preferred verb for this group. They also all claimed that we already pay for search which Kevin seemed to dismiss – I thought that could be a rich topic of debate but I'll bow to the wiser head of Mr Kelly. Checking back on my Twitter stream, this stood out for me from the panel.
Finally in this session, Kevin Kelly said he's like to have search answers whispered in his ear and I suggested he should read the Internet of Things post on this blog.
We then had a session on when the machine takes over which I didn't follow in detail (lack of coffee) but did get sucked back in to the conversation by Chris Ahlberg of Recorded Future. They have what I can only describe as a prediction engine which I need to go check out….I'm assuming it doesn't give me the lottery numbers for next week
Next up Gary Small – I've read some of his work recently and it's fascinating stuff. Added to which, Gary has fun in his delivery. He's been doing research with people who've never use the web (or search) before to understand the effect it has on their brains. Quite where he finds these people I don't know but his MRI scans of what the human brain looks like "on Google (or Bing)" are fun to see. What I learnt from his talk led me to this tweet
Gary finished up by predicting we'd be wearing headbands soon that could read our minds and take predictive on our behalf. Sounds similar to some of Craig Mundie's themes though I've not heard Craig go as far as headbands. Yet
Next up was from Ilya Segalovich, Co Founder of Yandex who got a rough ride from Wadwha – a shame actually as I think Ilya had more to offer and was put off his stride a little. Vivek started by asking him "why isn't Russia taking over the world" and finished by asking him what can Google steal from Yandex. Ilya charitably offered up shopping and a "few other things". Yandex does really rather well in Russia and I think he got short shrift. Shame as there is more to learn here about what they're thinking about for the future.
Things began to wind down from there though the final panel left me with a few thoughts – this cartoon from Tom Gauld depicted some of what Esther talked about when she said search needs to have more AI – to understand what we're trying to do and the benefit of pattern recognition.
Esther also said that as search gets better, we need to think of smarter questions. Not so sure about that one…
Ilya posed a great question asking how search history could become portable across search engines – asking when could you take your search history from Google to Yandex. Meanwhile, Gary warned that we're all walking around with our own personalized, connected computer and though our brains will get better at handling tech he questions whether we'll lose ability to talk face to face and understand things like non verbal cues. Somewhat ironically, I'm about to hit publish on this post from 20k ft in the air….while chatting to Jaron Lanier via email….he's on a parallel flight from Oakland to Seattle. Our new reality?

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Indictment: Boston Marathon suspect downloaded bomb-making instructions, jihad literature
BOSTON - Boston Marathon suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev downloaded bomb-making instructions from an al-Qaida magazine, gathered online material on Islamic jihad and martyrdom and later scrawled anti-American messages inside the boat where he lay wounded, a federal indictment charged Thursday.
The 30-count indictment contains the bombing charges, punishable by the death penalty, that were brought in April against the 19-year-old Tsarnaev, including use of a weapon of mass destruction to kill.
It also contains many new charges covering the slaying of an MIT police officer and the carjacking of a motorist during the getaway attempt that left Tsarnaev's older brother, Tamerlan, dead.
"Tamerlan Tsarnaev's justice will be in the next world, but for his brother, accountability will begin right here in the district of Massachusetts," Suffolk District Attorney Daniel Conley, whose jurisdiction includes Boston, said at a news conference with federal prosecutors.
The indictment provides one of the most detailed public explanations to date of the brothers' alleged motive — Islamic extremism — and the role the Internet may have played in influencing them.
Three people were killed and more than 260 wounded by the two pressure-cooker bombs that went off near the finish line of the marathon on April 15.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured four days later, hiding in a boat parked in a backyard in Watertown, just west of Boston.
According to the indictment, he scrawled messages on the inside of the vessel that said, among other things, "The U.S. Government is killing our innocent civilians," ''I can't stand to see such evil go unpunished" and "We Muslims are one body, you hurt one you hurt us all."
The Tsarnaev brothers had roots in the turbulent Russian regions of Dagestan and Chechnya, which have become recruiting grounds for Muslim extremists. They had been living in the U.S. about a decade.
But the indictment made no mention of any larger conspiracy beyond the brothers and no reference to any direct overseas contacts with extremists. Instead, the indictment suggests the Internet played an important role in the suspects' radicalization.
Before the attack, according to the indictment, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev downloaded onto his computer the summer 2010 issue of Inspire, an online English-language magazine published by al-Qaida. The issue detailed how to make bombs from pressure cookers, explosive powder extracted from fireworks and lethal shrapnel.
He also downloaded extremist Muslim literature, including "Defence of the Muslim Lands, the First Obligation After Imam," which advocates "violence designed to terrorize the perceived enemies of Islam," the indictment said.
Another tract downloaded included a foreword by Anwar al-Awlaki, an American propagandist for al-Qaida who was killed in a U.S. drone strike in 2011.
U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz of Massachusetts said Attorney General Eric Holder will decide whether to pursue the death penalty against Tsarnaev, who will be arraigned on July 10. Some of Tsarnaev's relatives have insisted he's not guilty, and his mother has said the allegations against him and his brother are lies.
The indictment assembled and confirmed details of the case that have been widely reported over the past two months and added new pieces of information.
For example, it corroborated reports that Tamerlan Tsarnaev bought 48 mortar shells from a Seabrook, N.H., fireworks store. It also disclosed that he used the Internet to order electronic components that could be used in making bombs.
The papers detail how the brothers then allegedly placed knapsacks containing shrapnel-packed bombs near the finish line of the 26.2-mile race.
The court papers also corroborated reports by authorities that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev contributed to his brother's death by accidentally running him over with a stolen vehicle during a shootout and police chase.
The charges cover the slaying of Massachusetts Institute of Technology police officer Sean Collier, who authorities said was shot in the head at close range in his cruiser by the Tsarnaevs, who tried to take his gun.
In addition, prosecutors said that during the carjacking, the Tsarnaevs forced the motorist to turn over his ATM card and his password and Dzhokhar withdrew $800 from the man's account.
At the same time the federal indictment was announced, Massachusetts authorities brought a 15-count state indictment against Dzhokhar over the MIT officer's slaying and the police shootout.
Tom Hays reported from New York.

As part of its 2013 expansion plan, the company announced a new franchise in the Motor City.
DETROIT - MosquitoNix is continuing its planned 2013 expansion, and announced a new franchise in Detroit.
The franchise was purchased by Jenny Hardwood, and MosquitoNix said that the new franchise will provide Detroit, Birmingham, Grosse Pointe Woods, Prosse Pointe Park, Grosse Isle and Novi with mosquito control just in time for summer.
"We are continuing our strategic expansion plan to meet the dramatic increase in demand for mosquito control across North America. Last year's West Nile virus outbreak was the largest since 2003. With summer just around the corner, time is of the essence for MosquitoNix to protect more and more families from annoying bugs and life threatening mosquito borne illnesses," said Dan O'Neal, chairman & CEO of FEMO Group Holdings, MosquitoNix's parent company. "We are impressed with Jenny's commitment to provide mosquito control to the Greater Detroit community so that families and businesses across the Motor City will be able to enjoy the outdoors safely," he added.
"We are excited about partnering with the MosquitoNix brand, which allows us to provide the most effective mosquito control solution available," said Jenny Harwood, President, MosquitoNix of Detroit. "Now that MosquitoNix is finally in Michigan we have the ability to potentially save lives and allow Detroit area families to reclaim their backyards without worrying about their loved ones and pets getting West Nile or other mosquito borne diseases."

Alessandra Ambrosio really is runway ready... as she poses with her luggage in airfield photoshoot with Johannes Huebl
Catwalks are, of course, her area of expertise.
And in these snaps Victoria's Secret star Alessandra Ambrosio really is ready for the runway - as she poses in a smouldering airfield photoshoot.
The 31-year-old mother-of-two donned a series of stylish outfits while on the shoot for German luggage firm RIMOWA.
Strike a pose: Alessandra Ambrosio looks stunning as she takes part in a photoshoot in Palma De Mallorca, Spain on Thursday
Double act: The Victoria's Secret star was joined by Olivia Palerm's model boyfriend Johannes Huebl for the RIMOWA Lookbook Shoot 2013
She was joined by Olivia Palermo's handsome model boyfriend Johannes Huebl as they took to the Son Bonet Aerodrome in Palma De Mallorca, Spain.
Brazilian beauty Alessandra jetted over to Europe last week, seen here strutting her stuff at the aerodrome on Friday against a backdrop of classic-looking planes for photographer Horst Diekgerdes.

Alessandra is seen in one behind-the-scenes snap having her make-up touched-up, ensuring she is ready for her close-up.
She looks fantastic in a navy blue trench coat, sexed up with a tightly-fastened belt and heels, while toting an item of hand luggage.
For another shot she changes into a bright orange dress, before looking pretty as a picture in a white frock and coat.

Alessandra, who recently strutted down the runway for this year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, is now back in California following her whirlwind trip.
She lives in Los Angeles with her fiance, businessman Jamie Mazur who she has been engaged to since 2008.
The couple have two young children together, four-year-old daughter Anja and six-month old son Noah.

HER Realtors hopes to make several acquisitions in the next 60 to 90 days as part of its aggressive Midwest expansion plans, Executive Vice President Michael Mahon says.
The Columbus-based real estate firm hasn't specified which firms it's targeting but Mahon told me deals can be expected to take place in Dayton, Cincinnati, eastern Indiana and Canal Winchester, among other markets.
HER also will roll out a new online system in the next few weeks, "refacing how consumers engage in real estate in regard to the Internet," Mahon said.
Evan Weese covers funding and capital for Columbus Business First.

NORTHUMBERLAND -- The Help Centre in Cobourg has laid off staff and is looking at how it will continue to provide services, following a cut in funding from Northumberland County.
Bill Crosier, the centre's managing director, said the non-profit organization had to let go a full-time staff person and a part-time employee after having roughly $93,000 of its funding from the County cut.
That's a large chunk of the approximately $250,000 the centre works with to help more than 5,000 unemployed and disadvantaged residents in Northumberland annually achieve income and housing security.
"It's going to have a big impact on services," Mr. Crosier said. "First and foremost is the loss of financial support for people in utility arrears ... Without that money we'll be at an extreme disadvantage to assist people."
But people receiving benefits through Ontario Works and the Ontario Disability Support Program will still receive help with rental and utility deposits and arrears payments, to ensure they have shelter, County officials said.
Shelter benefits along with discretionary benefits administered by the County "are not being lost, in fact we're keeping them alive and distributing the funding in a different manner," said Mark Darroch, the County's community and social services director.
"We're changing our business plan, we're changing our service delivery," he said. "We have to make sure we maintain the present programs ... with the dollars that are available, and to do things differently in order to keep those programs alive."
The County is being forced to make changes in its community and social services department as a result of funding cuts Northumberland has experienced itself. Those reductions are among millions of dollars in social assistance that have been slashed province-wide as part of the Liberal government's deficit-reduction efforts.
Northumberland is making up the shortfall with local tax dollars as much as it can, CAO Bill Pyatt said.
"If we just passed the cuts on to our residents, there would be some real hardships. We'd have more people losing their housing, which we don't want. Once somebody loses their housing, the consequences can be very, very severe."
Mr. Darroch met with the representatives of about 35 non-profit agencies in December to brief them on what was happening. He "challenged" them to re-examine their business plans and to look at opportunities for the integration and amalgamation of services and a consolidation of funding, in order to deliver services more effectively and efficiently together.
Reduced funding levels from senior levels of government is "the new normal," Mr. Darroch said, but "clients are not going to lose, that's got to be clear."
In fact, they stand to gain in the long run because of the new working relationships being developed.
"We realize there will be a lot of anxiety but the thing is we have to talk it out and work it through," he said. "I know by working together with the excellent agencies that we've got, it will work out best for the client."
Mr. Crosier said The Help Centre's board of directors has "yet to make any decisions on dropping anything."
The organization maintains an affordable housing registry "and whether we continue that or not will depend on our ability to bounce back from these cuts," he said.
It will search for other sources of funding. The United Way is already a major provider of funds and the centre augments its revenue with fundraisers.
The County has said it will provide $28,000 to help clients with utility costs and rent arrears, but "there's no assistance around administrative costs to provide the program," Mr. Crosier. "We haven't decided how the agency would be able to get the dollars out to the community when we can't hire anyone to do it."
Utility providers in urban communities contribute about $50,000 a year into a pot to help low-income families and individuals at or below the poverty level pay their hydro and natural gas bills, Mr. Crosier said.
But "we won't be able to help people as much in rural areas."
Also, with only two staff members left -- a third worker's contract ends in March -- "it's going to be harder" to help as many people at the free tax clinics The Help Centre offers each year, he said.
"It may diminish the number of returns that we can do," Mr. Crosier said. "We did almost 1,800 returns last year."

Japanese ranking site Goo is back with another survey, and this time they've asked their readers what anime characters have the cutest, most impression-leaving pair of peepers.
Specifically, they've asked about "tsurime," which kinda means upturned or almond-shaped eyes. Anyway, you'll get the idea once you see the list.
As of this past weekend, the Live Spectacle Naruto stage play is open for business in Tokyo! Japanese websites were given a sneak peak via a dress rehearsal on Friday, followed by the public opening on Saturday. Media in attendance have been allowed to shoot photos and videos, giving fans at home an idea of just what the heck a Naruto play looks like anyway.
There aren't many surprises when it comes to still photography from the opening, however, reactions to footage of the play's "high flying" trampoline-based fight scenes have been heavily mixed...
Back in July of last year we posted about the creation of Manga-Anime Guardians, an initiative started by the Japanese government in order to reduce piracy of anime and manga online.
Manga-Anime Guardians have now reported about their progress for the first time. Let's take a look at the results!
It's a strange, post-modern art project that shouldn't really work but somehow does: Bartkira, the project started in 2013 to redraw all of Akira with characters from The Simpsons.
This month, Bartkira hit Japan for the first time in the form of an exhibition in Tokyo's Asagaya neighborhood.
The Japanese government's Agency for Cultural Affairs announced Thursday the winners of 2014's Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Recommendation Awards, and the Rookie of the Year for media/arts went to none other than Masashi Kishimoto, creator of the recently-completed manga Naruto.
On, Japanese social media, reaction to a manga that ran for 15 years winning Rookie of the Year was a collective "congrats, but… huh?"
What happens when you find out your lead might just be a massive, unsympathetic jerk? I guess nothing, really—contrary to popular belief a character doesn't need to be likable to be a good character—but that's one of the handful of revelations in Ajin: Demi-Human vol. 3, where nothing is as it seems. Gamon Sakurai continues with an intense tale of special humans who can't be killed and the adversity they face from the government and public at large, and it just keeps getting better.

This sort of lightheadedness can actually be a sign of more serious conditions like very high blood pressure. The elevation difference your brain experiences within the few seconds you are rising shouldn't affect the body, but in people with high blood pressure, anemia, low blood pressure, thyroid disorders, diabetes, brain tumors, severe dehydration, calcium deficiency, magnesium deficiency, Parkinson's Disease, and other medical conditions may experience this sort of momentary black-outs.
It's called orthostatic hypotension (also known as postural hypotension) and is when your blood pressure drops suddenly when you stand up. It could be noted even by a problem in the main circulatory system.
If I were you, I'd get myself checked out just to make sure everything is alright. The doctor may be able to provide a few tips for you so that you don't have to deal with this. It doesn't hurt to make sure everything is, indeed, working right in the body.
Remember, you are important and you have to rely on yourself to take care of yourself.

when you stand up quickly the blood to your brain decreases causing you to feel light headed and dizzy which causes the black spots. When you stand up you need to stand up slower...otherwise you will blackout for a few seconds sorry hope this helps

United test Bayern resolve with £20m bid for Hargreaves
Saturday 20 January 2007
"Hitting a brick wall" was how Sir Alex Ferguson described his transfer pursuits yesterday morning and by close of play last night he had struck another obstacle as Bayern Munich refused to sell Owen Hargreaves despite an offer of almost £20m from Manchester United for the England international.
United revealed their desperation to add the combative midfielder to their championship-chasing squad when they lodged an offer of €30m (£19.7m) with the Bundesliga superpower. However, despite previous assurances from Bayern chairman Franz Beckenbauer that a sum in that region would secure the signature of Hargreaves, Ferguson was frustrated once again as the German club insisted they would not part with the player before the end of the season.
Speaking to the German tabloid newspaper Bild, Bayern president Karl-Heinz Rummenigge insisted United's improved offer would not alter his club's stance, although he stopped short of rejecting the bid outright. "It does not come into question," he said. "In the summer we will see how things work out."
The attempt by United to force through a deal before the close of business in 12 days' time was confirmed by the Munich midfielder himself, who celebrates his 26th birthday today, still hoping for a move he has actively encouraged since last summer.
"It's been official that Manchester United have made an offer for me," he revealed. "Man United has developed into such a talented team; such a great nucleus. Look at Rio [Ferdinand], Wazza [Wayne Rooney] and Cristiano Ronaldo, who is one of the best players in Europe at the moment. They've got incredible potential and for a club like Man United to make an offer is something I appreciate."
Old Trafford officials were last night contemplating their next move in the transfer saga but, despite the frosty reception for the bid, they believe Bayern's resolve may weaken as the January deadline approaches. If it does not, United will try once again for Hargreaves in the summer.
Bayern's glittering and populist hierarchy have issued conflicting signals over Hargreaves' availability for several months, with Beckenbauer accepting that the deal represents a fine return on a player they brought over from Canada as a teenager, but Rummenigge and general manager Uli Hoeness are refusing to negotiate with their Old Trafford counterparts. The latter's insistence that Bayern need the player more than money has deepened this week with the news that Sebastian Deisler, the Germany midfielder, is to retire at the age of 27, and fellow midfielder Hasan Salihamidzic has signed a pre-contract agreement with Italian giants Juventus.
Hargreaves, who has missed most of this season with a broken leg, returned to training this week and is expected to be involved in competitive action ahead of the Champions' League tie with Real Madrid next month.
Ferguson's dogged pursuit of the midfielder commenced in the aftermath of his sterling performances at the World Cup.
Ferguson's willingness to pay £19.7m for a player who - pre-Germany - was condescendingly dismissed on these shores, reveals the United manager's concern at the lack of cover for his current central midfield. Though Paul Scholes and, latterly, Michael Carrick have formed a healthy pairing in United's rise, there are few outstanding candidates to fill their roles should either succumb to injury.
Quite where Hargreaves would fit into United's current style of play, with Scholes outstanding this season, is a source of debate, but a hypothetical one unless Bayern finally relent.
"We are hitting a brick wall at the moment but it's interesting that ourselves, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool have been very quiet," said Ferguson.
"Blackburn and Ports-mouth have done a bit of business, I spoke to Martin O'Neill last week and he's finding it very difficult to get players in. It's not easy in January."

Short Cuts
St. Alphonsus was born in the village of Marianella near Naples, Italy, September 27, 1696. At a tender age his pious mother inspired him with the deepest sentiments of piety. The education he received under the auspices of his father, aided by his own intellect, produced in him such results that at the early age of sixteen, he graduated in law. Shortly after, he was admitted to the Neopolitan bar. In 1723, he lost a case, and God made use of his disappointment to wean his heart from the world. In spite of all opposition he now entered the ecclesiastical state. In 1726, he was ordained a priest. He exercised the ministry at various places with great fruit, zealously laboring for his own sanctification. In 1732, God called him to found the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer, with the object of laboring for the salvation of the most abandoned souls. Amid untold difficulties and innumerable trials, St. Alphonsus succeeded in establishing his Congregation, which became his glory and crown, but also his cross. The holy founder labored incessantly at the work of the missions until, about 1756, he was appointed Bishop of St. Agatha, a diocese he governed until 1775, when broken by age and infirmity, he resigned this office to retire to his convent where he died. Few saints have labored as much, either by word or by writing, as St. Alphonsus. He was a prolific and popular author, the utility of whose works will never cease. His last years were characterized by intense suffering, which he bore with resignation, adding voluntary mortifications to his other pains. His happy death occurred at Nocera de Pagani, August 1, 1787.
