Mario Balotelli lit the fuse on Manchester City's title charge as the Italian scored twice in a stunning 6-1 victory over 10-man Manchester United on Sunday.
Balotelli's heroics helped Roberto Mancini's side end United's 18-month, 37-game unbeaten run at Old Trafford and lifted table-topping City five points clear of the reigning English Premier League champions.
Sergio Aguero was also on the mark for City as United played for almost the entire second half with only 10 men after the dismissal of defender Jonny Evans, who had been badly at fault for the first goal.
And there were two late goals for substitute Edin Dzeko, with David Silva also scoring, as United leaked three goals in as many minutes in stoppage time.
Making history
It was an extraordinary afternoon in the history of both clubs, with City recording their biggest win at Old Trafford since a 6-1 victory here in January 1926 and United suffering their heaviest ever Premier League defeat.
It also marked a remarkable turn of events for Balotelli who had made the headlines after the fire brigade was called to his Cheshire home in the early hours of Saturday to put out a blaze started by igniting fireworks in his bathroom.
Almost inevitably, the opening goal came from Balotelli after City had weathered a strong opening from the hosts.
Evans gave the ball away needlessly in the 21st minute and allowed City to launch a devastating counter-attack.
Silva slipped a pass into the inside-left channel for James Milner, who pulled the ball back for Balotelli with Evans failing to mark his man closely enough.
The Italian produced a fine low shot from 18 yards which flew into the bottom right-hand corner of the United goal beyond the dive of David de Gea.
Not satisfied with that, Balotelli, without a smile on his face, then lifted his jersey to unveil a t-shirt bearing the message "Why Always Me?".
It seemed a fitting question, given events of the weekend, but the 21-year-old's footballing abilities remain unquestioned whatever his problems away from the game, even if his t-shirt slogan earned him a yellow card.
Costly red
Matters did not improve for United after the interval. A minute after the restart, Silva's neat through ball found Evans the wrong side of Balotelli and the Northern Ireland defender blatantly pulled back his man.
Referee Mark Clattenburg had no choice but to show Evans a straight red card.
Reduced to 10 men, United might have gone further behind when Micah Richards powered towards goal, following an Aguero mishit, and shot wildly over.
Young did better when he robbed Milner in the 57th minute and bore down on goal, Richards' last-ditch block preventing a shot.
But that was a rare glimmer of optimism for United fans and, on the hour, City had wrapped up the points with another beautifully-worked goal.
Sunday October 23 Arsenal 3-1 Stoke Fulham 1-3 Everton Man Utd 1-6 Man City Blackburn v Spurs QPR 1-0 Chelsea
Milner and Silva exchanged passes, the latter back-heeling to the former who reached the by-line before drilling the ball across goal to the far post where Balotelli converted his second of the afternoon.
City added a third on 68 minutes through Aguero. Milner's pass freed Richards down the right and he pulled back the perfect cross into the six-yard area where Aguero comfortably converted from close range.
Fletcher claimed United's consolation, nine minutes from time, when he swapped passes with Javier Hernandez and curled a perfect finish into the top-right corner of the City goal from 20 yards.
But United would not be spared complete humiliation and, in the 90th minute, Gareth Barry flicked on a corner to the far post where Joleon Lescott crossed for Dzeko to knee into the net from close-range.
A minute later, Silva was played clear by Dzeko and sprinted half the length of the field before coolly placing the ball past de Gea.
And, in injury-time, Dzeko was again on the mark, another counter-attack sprung by a slide-rule Silva pass which allowed the forward to advance and beat the exposed de Gea yet again.
Chelsea lose
A good afternoon for City got even better in the late games as Chelsea crashed to a 1-0 defeat against Queens Park Rangers in a pulsating west London derby which saw Andre Villas-Boas's side finish with nine men.
Tottenham moved up one place with a 2-1 win at Blackburn, who slipped back to the foot of the table after the defeat at Ewood Park.
Arsenal captain Robin van Persie came to the rescue once again as the Gunners downed Stoke 3-1 at the Emirates and at Craven Cottage, Everton scored twice in injury time to clinch a 3-1 victory over Fulham.

It's the last day of our holiday today and after all that riding we decide on a relaxed day... No cycling, just a walk into Sydney and wander around.
We head down to Circular Quay and decide on a tour of the Opera House.

A Flying Visit
... had been staying in Cardwell (small world really!) which was nice too. I went to the theatre with one of them to see The Lion King which was absolutely incredible, definitely worth the $50! Absolutely brilliant.
After waving goodbye to her as she headed off for her 24 hour flight back to Ireland, we eventually left the city and left for Fiji in the hope of sunnier days and slightly less covered up women!
Bondi winter
... and spending time with him brightens my weeks. I stay for 2 hours after my shift ends drinking wine and eating nibbles with Helen, Edwards mum, which was a lovely way to say goodbye.
Our last weekend in Sydney is spent with Victor and Marlene, relaxing in Oakhurst.....great company and great food as always!!....In another month we'll be back here with mum and dad on our east coast road trip.....more good times ahead!

The walk was totally different from the Eastern coastal walk, as on the Eastern walk you could along the coastline on the edge of the cliffs, and see the view, whereas on this one you could see the coastline but it was like we was in the jungle. There was trees and bushes all around us and a tiny path to follow, it was more of a hike than a walk. We was so glad to get out of ...

Designing Systems for Reliable Human Performance
In system, process or product operations, humans cause as much as 70 percent of the failures or problems that occur. Most industrial design processes are not completely effective in designing systems, processes and products for reliable human performance. Occasionally, the consequences are expensive product liability claims. This programme describes the important factors, techniques, tools and data that form the foundation of an effective design process for reliable human performance. The programme also describes how to set reliability and maintainability requirements for systems, processes or products that include humans and how to test the human-machine designs for compliance with the requirements. A broad range of engineers and managers should benefit from watching this programme. References and hard copies of the visuals are included with this CD-ROM course.

An up-to-date look at free software and its makers
Inthis month's Projects on the Move, we look at Squirrel SQL, a full-featured easy-to-use GUI-based database management tool. We also have updates on Debian: frozen Etch, the upcoming DebConf 7, and spring cleaning
on the Debian Desktop.
Just like on a filesystem, the command line is often the quickest way to perform many database-related tasks. This said, GUI-based front-ends also have some advantages, like giving you a fast overview of existing databases and tables. Plus, if you are unfamiliar with a particular SQL dialect or engine, you can still edit tables, modify access privileges or change table structures. If you need SQL queries for more complex tasks, they often provide SQL editors with syntax highlighting.

Sign in to digital edition
Thursday 2 Apr 2015
By Gareth Harris and Charlotte Burns. Web onlyPublished online: 29 March 2013
A New York collector has lost his legal battle against the photographer William Eggleston in US federal court. Jonathan Sobel, a financier, says that his collection of more than 190 photographs by Eggleston, which includes limited edition prints, was devalued by an auction of Eggleston's works at Christie's New York in March 2012.
The sale was controversial because it included new, larger format editions of the photographer's famous dye-transfer images that the artist first produced in the 1970s and early 1980s. The 36-lot white-glove sale totalled $5.9m with the top lot, Untitled 1970, setting a world auction record for a single print by the photographer at $578,000 (est $200,000-$300,000).Sobel sought damages from Eggleston and his son William Eggleston III, as trustees of the Eggleston Artistic Trust, for violation of the New York Arts and Cultural Affairs Law (Acal), fraudulent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment and promissory estoppel. From 2008 to 2011, Sobel bought eight limited edition works by Eggleston, each of which was individually numbered, measuring about 16 by 20 inches. The same images were consigned to Christie's but in a larger size (44 by 60 inches), and were digitally manufactured from computer-generated files. The court papers state that "Sobel's belief that the works were limited editions was a principal factor in his decision to purchase them... he argues that the defendants violated the Acal by holding out the limited edition works as restricted to a maximum number of multiples and subsequently creating and selling the reprints." The court ruled that "nothing in the statute suggests that such behaviour violates the Acal". Sobel could not be reached for comment.

It List: The Best New Hotels
Courtesy of Vina Vik
Introducing a Caribbean design star, an eco-pioneer in the Galágapos, and more exciting new hotels that are transforming their destinations.
It looks like a concrete-and-glass spaceship touched down amid the lush hills of Chilean wine country. In fact, it's Viña Vik, a new retreat that's thrillingly original and opening up the Millahue Valley to more travelers.
Wine-country hotels the world over tend to follow a few familiar themes—intimate scale, lots of stone and rough-hewn beams, expansive views, good food—and if they often deliver a high degree of comfort, they also rarely offer many surprises.
Viña Vik is the opposite, from its curvilinear winery designed by Smiljan Radic to rooms that pursue an idea (say, an homage to Piero Fornasetti) down to the smallest detail. It's the kind of hotel that can singlehandedly make a trip memorable.
After all, there are great new hotels, and then there are game changers. For our 10th annual editors' choice awards, we picked 43 transformative properties—and vetted each one with a hotel stay.
Our search took us from Anguilla to Australia, from India to Italy. In Florida, we followed the cool crowd to the Miami Beach Edition, the latest scene-maker in Mid-Beach. The party begins in the lobby, with its all-white billiards table, and overflows into a nightclub, a bowling alley, a Jean-Georges restaurant, even a skating rink.
In Portugal, the arrival of Sublime Comporta opens up a stretch of coastline that's been a longtime getaway for Lisbon's smartest families. The husband-and-wife owners make guests feel like instant insiders, pointing out the best beaches and arranging scenic horseback rides.
These remarkable newcomers are a reminder that a great hotel can be a destination unto itself. They provide not just a place to rest your head but also an entire rationale to get on a plane and explore someplace new.
So check out this year's It List and get planning.
