Rangers chase Emery, top Flyers for 2-1 series lead
Apr 22, 2014, 10:45 PM EDT
Whether it was the right decision or not heading into the game, the bottom line is that Ray Emery eventually found himself on the bench during Tuesday's eventual 4-1 Game 3 loss to the New York Rangers.
Which means it's time to let out a sad sigh (if you're a Flyers fan) and an evil cackle (if you hate the Flyers), as the franchise's eternal goaltending questions may crop up once again. Fair or not based on the chances he faced, Emery allowed four goals on 20 shots before giving way to Steve Mason with a little less than 10 minutes remaining in the game.
Martin St. Louis is starting to find his offensive groove as his line with Rick Nash and Derek Stepan created quite a bit of offense for the Rangers. (Of course, Daniel Carcillo's offense was most … offensive in going up 4-1.)
The bad news might also be a blessing in disguise or the Flyers: Claude Giroux still hasn't gotten his game together. That's not ideal, although it provides some room for optimism as Philly is only down 2-1 even as its crucial star has largely been negated by the Rangers.
The Rangers continue to be a strong road team in winning what was an increasingly nasty contest.
The Rangers and Flyers face off in Game 4 on Friday, so Philly has an opportunity to catch its breath and maybe consider some lineup changes. Oh yeah, and Steve Mason gets some time to be truly 100 percent and prepare for what are almost certainly the biggest games of his career.
- gnashty - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:49 PM
And as I said. Ray Emery is inconsistent. He looked average at best. Unfortunate – at times he looks great at times he looks like me playing goalie. Not starting Mason was a horrible decision. He has arguably been the best goalie in a single season for a decade. Emery isn't as good as him. One thing I know Mase will start game 4 Friday.
- phillyphanatic77 - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:58 PM
No I don't think starting Emery was the reason we lost. I don't disagree that he was very beatable again and that Mason is a better goaltender, but I don't believe Mason felt well enough to play a full 60. He was there for an emergency and they put him in for garbage time to shake the rust off. Rangers deserved to win, Mason starts game 4. No debate.
- gnashty - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:07 PM
While he isn't the sole blame in this loss he plays a massive role into the loss just like he played a massive role in the win the other day. And as to Mase not being able to play – Emery could have gone done quick he's an injury prone goalie. There is no doubt Mase was ready they just chose to go with Razor
- canucks30 - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:59 PM
They're both inconsistent.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:04 PM
Mason has been real consistent this year and is miles better than emery, but Emery definitely isn't at fault for the loss but he had his bad moments that remind us why he isn't a #1 goalie
- canucks30 - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:06 PM
Consistency for Mason may be applicable for this year but his career has been a roller coaster.
- phillyphanatic77 - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:07 PM
Mason is nowhere close to Razor when it comes to being inconsistent. Not this season. Emery's 13-14 literally went one good start, one bad start, rotating every other game. And that's how he's been this series. Mason just offers far more when it comes to athleticism, flexibility, and the ability to play the puck.
- canucks30 - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:51 PM
The Flyers 30 year search for a #1 goalie continues…
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:58 PM
And the canucks search for a viable NHL team starts when?
- canucks30 - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:02 PM
I'm not sure "viable" is the right word since the Canucks are one of the NHL's most valuable franchises and have the longest active sellout streak in the NHL.
"Consistently competitive" would have been the more operative choice of words.
Although, I commend you for replying without the cliche riot reference. Good job.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:08 PM
Viable means capable of being successful which is what I meant, as in being competitive like you said, the franchise and fan base is very legit, just not the team
- canucks30 - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:14 PM
Fair enough. Although the word viable has more of a financial and economic connotation to it than successful.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:17 PM
Fair enough, we'll if mason is the real deal in the future as well
- thesportsjudge - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:26 PM
When you say "sellout streak" what exactly are you referring to? ;P

Good game by the Rangers.
Now I won't whine about the refs too much since the Rangers have had ample power plays in this series, and some of the calls against the Flyers have been iffy as well… however, that Carcillo penalty was the biggest joke I have ever seen. If there was a more clear case of a ref looking to call a penalty in order to give a team a chance to make things interesting, I've never seen it. Glad to see it didn't end up changing the outcome at all.
- maalea - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:00 PM
I think that call was more about the name on the back of the jersey, than the actions of the player.
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:02 PM
So, iffy calls happen not only against Montreal's opponents? Personally I don't care that iffy calls happen, but never will I subscribe to the idea that refs are bought out by any team.
- stakex - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:33 PM
Well lets be honest… the idea that any team has the refs in their pocket is just stupid.
My only issue is when the refs make phantom calls late in a game. It happens all the time, and it always seems to favor the team that's trailing. I'm not saying there is a conspiracy to make games as close as possible to keep the excitement level up, but that's certainly how some refs call the game. I don't mean just against the Rangers either, but the league in general.
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:41 PM
Hmm! I believe that refs use make up calls at times. Not to keep a game close or to give an edge to either team. If a referee got sucked into giving a penalty following a dive, then I believe they would use the make up call to even things up.
"While it is highly unlikely that a Referee would "invent" an infraction, the hard truth is that while every Referee's attempted objective is to maintain a "consistent" standard, he might alter that standard to grab a quick penalty with an eye toward fairness. If that meets your definition of an "even-up" call to compensate for an obvious mistake that has been made then so be it." -Kerry Fraser
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:12 PM
I think it was the combination of it being a good scoring chance and it being carcillo who btw lost his mind and nearly got a 2nd penalty for arguing
I wonder if carcillo plays Friday, he scored but took a dumb penalty on giroux and nearly took another for mindlessly arguing in the 3rd after the hooking call
- moarjam - Apr 23, 2014 at 10:10 AM
He was arguing so fervently because of how ludicrous the call was…It was terrible. Is he supposed to just smile and go to the box? If you aren't in position to see it was a blatant stick lift then don't make a call.
I'm sure he plays on Friday. He was much more effective than Fasth.
- 7mantel - Apr 23, 2014 at 8:45 AM
Years ago the refs swallowed their whistles in the 3rd period !
- maalea - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:53 PM
Rangers were the better team, again. Not going to win too many games scoring 1 goal, I don't care who's in net.
Mason is the much better puck handler, so maybe that can help get the puck out of the D zone faster and lead to a better transition game.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:56 PM
I think this was the 1st game the rangers really weren't the better team, they just converted (had some luck too) and had great performance by their special teams
- phillyphanatic77 - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:53 PM
Ok, first off Emery was average but he wasn't the reason we lost this game. He didn't help a ton but he wasn't completely to blame. The Rangers were a shot blocking machine. And for some reason the Flyers incessantly wound up for slap shots instead of going with quick wristers or snapshots. Hartnell learned and was an inch from scoring. Read and G had prime scoring chances from point blank and neither got a shot off. Unacceptable. While the Rangers deserve a ton of credit the Flyers made zero adjustments. They just kept trying to blast it through a brickwall. At one point in telecast they showed a montage of blocks and EVERY single one was a slapper.
Atleast there will be no controversy as to who starts game 4. Flyers need to make some serious adjustments and stop waiting til they're down 2-0 to start playing hard.
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:04 PM
I didn't see this game tonight, but what you describe sounds like the coach is not doing his job, or the boys are not doing as they are told. Too bad! Flyers had a heck of a year after a poor start.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:54 PM
Tough game for the Flyers, didn't play bad and were probably the better team 5 on 5 but couldn't convert and the rags did, that was the difference
hell of a game by the rangers pk, blocked and cut off a ln extremely frustrating amount of shots
At least we know whos starting in goal from now on
- therealtrenches - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:54 PM
The Flyers squandered all momentum they had going into this game pretty early. Not the look of a team that can challenge for the cup. They fall behind early too often.
- sjtorpitt - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:55 PM
Great game by Carcillo.
Hurt twice which prompted cheers by the classy Philly fans, and then scores and laughs at them while they flip him off.
- maalea - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:06 PM
The time he was curled up in a ball, at the blue line, was a total dive.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:15 PM
He also put his team shorthanded twice, his goal was a result of him coming out if the box for a break and emery leaving his 5 hole wide open with his stick by his side certainly helped too
- stakex - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:27 PM
That one penalty on him was a complete phantom call, and the other was pretty marginal for the playoffs…. don't think the coaching staff would complain much.
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 10:57 PM
Rangers fan shouldn't be too worried about the outcome of this series. NYR will prevail because of coaching, goaltending, and better d men. Same reasons why Mtl beat TB.
joey4id – Apr 16, 2014 at 2:58 PM
As in the Mtl/TB match up the team that will prevail is the team with the better goalie. Lundqvist and Price are the superior goalies in their respective series. NYR and Montreal also have the more experienced coach, and NYR as the better d over their opponent.
- phillyphanatic77 - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:03 PM
And what quote from yourself did you have ready in case the Flyers won?
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:07 PM
None! Contrary to what you wish to believe, I don't have contradicting quotes. When I'm wrong I'll admit it. I didn't give many chances for the Flyers to make the playoffs, yet they did. However, I did predict that the NYR would finish ahead of the Flyers. Would you like to see that quote? Anyway! Rangers are all over this one.
- joey4id - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:13 PM

Flyerspu, no need to get Into a debate here because it's exhausting and clearly you're speaking as a die hard flyers fan, but, better team five on five? You were outscored 4-0 on 5-5 play, yor goal came via 4 on 4. Flyers had more shots but very misleading, nothing of substance aside from a few shots. And before you get Into the post by hartnell, Boyle hit one too. The best save of the night went to emery on the StepAn shot. The rangers put on a show on the PK and zapped the few mins of momentum the crowd and flyers had.
- flyerspsu - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:27 PM
Let's agree to disagree, the flyers had control of the puck more but struggled to get pucks through and the rangers played great defense while the rangers had a deflection goal, emery dropping a floater on to stepans stick when there were what 2 rangers total in the zone, and carcillo coming out of the box to create a 2 on 1, but girardis goal was nice
- billiam55 - Apr 22, 2014 at 11:09 PM

Emery gave up 3 soft goals that he should have stopped and he would love to have back. The Flyers outplayed the Rangers and with better goaltending could have won the game. Now, here comes all the second guessing about goaltending. Everyone agrees, Mason is the better goaltender, but if Berube started Mason last night and they were beaten, Berube would have been crucified for sitting a "hot" goaltender. I am also tired of people calling Giroux oeverrated. Has he had a great series so far? No, but he is also being matched up against one of the best 3 or 4 defense pairings in the NHL. He also has 2 assists and is a plus-3 in three games. He also had the steal that led to the Flyers lone goal last night. Yes, I think everyone wants him to do more and becasue he is one of the top 5-10 players in the world, we expect more. The crisicism should be on the #2 line that has done nothing so far this series, and they are not being matched up against McDonaugh and Girardi.

lol no. YOU thought they wouldn't make playoffs, and told us to mark it down. well, I mentally marked it, and you were wrong. who you thought they were? no. you know nothing about who the Flyers are as you haven't had a complete thought about hockey since… well… ever.
- nashernation - Apr 23, 2014 at 2:02 PM
That was one of the best special team performances I've seen in this game. Girardi and Boyle had great games. St Louis is starting to look scary good on the top line.

White Station's Hollins earns AAA Mr. Basketball Award
Andre Hollins would have rather been on the court at the Murphy Center in a different capacity Saturday, but he was pretty happy all the same.
The White Station star, who is heading to Minnesota next season, won the AAA Mr. Basketball award beating out Melrose star Adonis Thomas and junior Alex Poythress of Clarksville Northeast. The award for Hollins came a day after his Spartans were eliminated by Craigmont in the state semifinals.
"It still hurts, but this cheers me up a little," said Hollins. "Congratulations to Craigmont, they played a great game. And to win this award ... it's just a blessing. I'm a little bit in shock right now."
The 6-2 Hollins averaged a Shelby-Metro best 25 points, to go along with four rebounds and four assists per contest. A four-year starter, he shot 50 percent from the floor, 40 percent from 3-point range and 88 percent from the line while leading the Spartans to a 30-7 record.
For his career, Hollins scored over 2,200 points while playing on four state tournament teams, including the 2009 champions

LOTRO From Past to Present A Look at the Books 9-11
The Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) has received a lot of new content, mechanics, and features since it's launch. This can make returning players feel like newbs all over again as they readjust and try to learn all the new content and changes that have been introduced to the game. This week Ten Ton Hammer examines the content introduced with Books 9 through 11 in the first of a series of articles aimed at bringing new and returning players up to speed on all the LOTRO content.
The developers at Turbine got a little creative with this update as they gave players the option to play as a chicken in what they called Session Play. You heard me right, I said a chicken. Just avoid getting choked by the enemies and I promise not to use that joke again.

Welcome to our website
Stay a while and take a look around! All the information you need to know about our grassroots, non-profit organization, including our programs and how to volunteer or support us is at your finger tips. We're neighbours helping neighbours to become fulfilled, engaged citizens of the London community through one-on-one literacy and numeracy training.
Though Canada is among the most prosperous countries in the world, low adult literacy is a problem in our country. Adult Canadians who have low literacy skills are more likely to be unemployed, unhealthy, use substances or be involved in crime.
The quotes from our students, displayed on many pages of this site, are testaments to the difference literacy training can make in a person's life.
Support Us
Literacy London couldn't run without the dedication of our volunteers and the financial support of the London community. We're always looking for people to volunteer and support us in helping London residents achieve their personal and career goals.
By clicking on the blue Canada Helps button above the menu on the left, you can make a secure online donation quickly and easily.
Behind the logo
How do you like our logo and slogan that appear on the banner of this web site? You'll see them on our letterhead, on posters, on our brochures and on just about anything else we can think of putting them on. The orange box, a transitional colour, makes us think of the optimism with which our students look to their future. The figure embedded in the orange block is happily in motion, springing toward the accomplishment of goals — a better life! Look hard and you'll see the image is also that of an open book and an open laptop computer. And our slogan, "uplifting lives", is what improved literacy does. Improved literacy can transform lives for the better, lifting them up from isolation, frustration, and not enough options. "Uplifting Lives" is what we hope to continue to do with the help of all our supporters, our volunteers, and most importantly, the hard work and dedication of our students.
The 1st Annual Literacy London Adult Spelling Bee was a great success! On behalf of the learners, volunteer tutors, staff and Board of Directors, I extend my sincere thanks to all who supported us in making the evening such a joyous event. The ballroom at Goodwill was literacy "buzzing" with excitement. The laughter, conversation, and overall sense of fun filled the room with warmth and light on a cold, dark and rainy fall evening. We, here at Literacy London, are honoured to have each of you in our lives. You made it all possible!
A very special thank you goes to Nick Paparella, Bill Brady, Murray Faulkner, Gary Ennett and Becky Howse for your hard work during the event itself. The words were difficult, indeed, and judging the entries was a serious gig. And, Nick, you always bring a sense of joy and fun to any gathering. We are thrilled that each of you has agreed to continue in your roles as ambassadors for Literacy London.
Funds raised from the Spelling Bee will be used to help pay for student learning supplies, tutor training sessions and technology support for Literacy London's programs. With your ongoing support, we are hopeful that Literacy London will be able to continue to serve those in our community who are committed to moving forward in their lives. We thank you again for your kindness.
Irene Wilmot
Executive Director
Uplifting Lives Celebration
On October 8, 2013, the community joined us in celebrating the accomplishments of the learners in the Literacy London program. It was a truly an "uplifting" evening and reminded all of us of the power of literacy to change lives. The four learners, who shared their journeys, including challenges and triumphs, impressed all of us with their determination. Thank you, Wanda, Maggie, Ed and Wendy for your honesty and courage.
The beautiful music was provided by harpist, Jennifer White and percussionist, Robert McMaster. The food, supplied by Joe and Edgar's Café of Goodwill Industries, was delicious and the raffle draws were very exciting. Thank you to all who contributed the prizes.
Nick Paparella hosted the evening and Bill Brady and Murray Faulkner each spoke about why literacy was an important issue in their lives. The volunteers who helped put the evening together included learners, volunteer tutors and friends of Literacy London. Thank you to all who contributed, attended and made the evening possible. Your support continues to Uplift Lives!

When someone tells me my prices are high I ask them what they think my time is worth. I let them know that I put a lot of hours into each and every box I create and I value my time and skills. My prices are not for everyone…but there are alot of people out there with plenty disposable income..
I always seem to somehow find customers that can afford to spend money for what they like and want. I have never made inexpensive items for a show …however… I always seem to make sales and get commissions afterwards…enough to keep me busy.
-- Each step of every Wood Art project I design and build is considered my masterpiece… because I want the finished product to reflect the quality and creativeness of my work

On Sunday, instead of paying tribute to his father on Father's Day, Teen Mom star Tyler Baltierra thanked an influential force in his life: his mother.Read Full Story
It was recently announced that Sister Wives' patriarch Kody Brown is going to become a father for the 18th time, as he and his fourth wife Robyn Sullivan Brown are expecting their second child — and she has a lot to say about his parenting skills.Read Full Story
"Christopher... where's your dad?" "Christopher's mommy... does he have a dad?" Those are the questions we get and each time I hear one I have to do a very graceful dance as not to miss a beat with my answer in order to ensure that Christopher believes that our family unit is one that is not different, but rather special and unique. Father's Day is an interesting day for me; it's a pretty big reminder that there is no dad in my son's life and a reminder that we may never know who his "birth dad" is. The day he said to me, "Mommy... my friend said at school if I didn't have a dad then I would have never been born," I was a bit stunned on how to react as I had yet to tell him his "birth dad story."Read Full Story
Growing up, I had the stereotypical type of parents you would see in a bad movie. Lazy dad that sits on the couch and watches sports, nagging mother frantically trying to keep the family together. A marriage that was quite obvious in its misery, with not a single kiss or touch to store in my memory.Read Full Story
Father's Day is a day to show the man who helped give you life or the man who helped you give life just how special he is. All dads are different and while some are serious and prefer sentimental gifts or the latest and greatest tech gadgets, other daddies would like nothing more than a good, hearty belly laugh. A gift that makes him smile is the best gift a child can give, other than unconditional love, a little respect and occasional silence.Read Full Story
A woman can begin to feel like a mom the moment she gets a positive pregnancy test, but for dads it's not always instant like that. It might be the moment his newborn baby is placed in his arms, the first night he spends rocking his crying child to sleep or the first time his baby mumbles "Dada." In light of Father's Day, we asked our Expert dads to share those moments with us. Here's what they said.Read Full Story

The University of Georgia has a long and storied tennis history beginning with the legacy built by Dan Magill to both men's and women's varsity teams winning regular season Southeastern Conference Championships. However, success on the tennis court has now spread from the varsity level to the Georgia club tennis team.
The club team secured the 2013 Tennis on Campus National Championship on April 13, defeating Florida 26-24 in a final the athletes said they never dreamed of reaching.
In less than a decade, the Georgia's club triathlon team has grown from five athletes to a team of 60, and its members are hoping Sunday's second annual Early Bird Sprint Triathlon will help it continue to build its reputation as well as its membership.
The event, which is open to the public, not only draws competitors from the Athens area but from across the Southeast with teams coming from Mississippi State, Clemson, Alabama, and Florida. Despite this widespread participation, club president Katie Reeder said the organization was keen to make the event a community-based one.
The Georgia club ice hockey team doesn't have the funding of the university's varsity sports, and it doesn't have quite the following the sport may draw in other areas of the country.
What it does have is a prestigious club tournament title that it hopes to build upon as it enters the offseason.
It is an impressive feat given the adversity the team has faced.
North Oconee girls basketball head coach Donnie Byrom has always demanded high levels of performance from his teams. This year, however, Byrom has been looking for something else from the Titans.
The third-year head coach was asking for a major investment from each of his players.
As the Cedar girls basketball team prepares for its first trip to the state playoffs since 2008, its 24-3 record has created an excitement that Harry Bufford said he hasn't felt since he returned as head coach in 2009.

It might seem like a post-practice shootout between James Jones and Mario Chalmers. The only difference is the two Miami Heat guards will be doing it in front of a packed house. Jones and Chalmers were named two of the six contestants for the 3-point shooting contest Feb. 25 during All-Star Weekend in Orlando. Also competing will be Ryan Anderson of the Magic, All-Stars Joe Johnson of Atlanta and Kevin Love of Minnesota, and New Jerseys Anthony Morrow. Jones claimed the event last year in Los Angeles, marking the third time in five years a Heat player had won. Jason Kapono did so in 2007 and Daequan Cook won in 2009. Miami also had Glen Rice win in 1995. Having a third of the field certainly helps the chances of another Heat player hoisting a trophy. Chalmers is shooting 46.3 percent on 3-pointers for the season and Jones is at 40.4 percent. Jones has attempted only 47 this season and likely is in the contest only because he is defending champion. Heat guard Mike Miller leads t...

Discussion in 'Literature' started by Master_Keralys, Jan 1, 2009.
Huzzah! Like a snow day without the health hazard.
Well, days off can be a hazard to one's liver, so to speak
EDIT: So, I'm starting my capstone paper this semester. I have decided to do it on how the Romans justified conquest and territorial integration, but need to decide whether to focus on how they justified it to the conquered, or on how they justified it to their own citizens. I also need to refine my data set, whether to (for example) Gaul, Dacia, or even Italy itself. Ideas?
Hm, do I have ideas about Roman conquest and territorial expansion, specifically in regard to literary, material, numismatic, or other means by which they justified it?
Yes, I juuuuuust might have an idea or two.
Jello is actually a textbook on Rome that has attained sapience and typing ability. Little-known fact!
Appropriately enough, since we're talking about papers, I had a little shocking bit of news today. It turns out that one of the papers I'll be writing this semester will probably be submitted to the United Nations with the view towards implementing some of its suggestions in drafting a new treaty.
Because there's nothing like the idea of an international committee laughing at how poor your writing is to stress someone out
Okay, Doctor Who fans, we've been through this before, but I can't remember the fairly detailed recommendations I've gotten before. So I need you again.
Where's the best place to start? I seem to remember the consensus was something odd for the uninitiated like me, like start with 2010, then go back to 2005, and so on. I'm thinking of starting at the 2005 reboot.
Some people *COUGHULICUSCOUGH* told me to start with the Ninth Doctor (episode called "Rose"), and I didn't like it. It was like the Power Rangers Putties teamup with the NJO World Brain or something. So I simultaneously jumped to Doctor 11 (episode "The Eleventh Hour") and Doctor 1 ("An Unearthly Child") and jumped back and forth. That way I could follow what people today are watching and also see how the Doctor developed. Now I'm going backwards through 11, 10, 9, etc and forwards through 2, 3, etc. I appreciate the Rose episode and 9th doctor better now.
I don't think anyone else would recommend you that route, but that's the one that got me hooked.
I would like that information too. I saw some seasons for ten euros in a local Kwik-E-Mart.
My re-reading of A Game of Thrones goes slowly. I decided to really learn about all those people and how they are related and make an Excel file of all the characters that are mentioned in the novel, the houses they belong in and how they were killed. Shouldn't take that long, I thought, after all the characters are mentioned in the first 100 pages it's just marking the dead ones.
I've never been so wrong in all my life.
194 named characters in the first 247 pages, and they just keep on coming. "The twins Ser Horas and Ser Hobber, whose shields displayed the grape cluster sigil of the Redwynes, burgundy on blue. Patrek Mallister, Lord Jason's son. Six Freys of the Crossing: Ser Jared, Ser Hosteen, Ser Danwell, Ser Emmon, Ser Theo, Ser Perwyn, sons and grandsons of old Walder Frey..."
lol, I don't think I've ever thought to try and write down all the names and houses before; I generally keep track of most of the major players, and rely on the appendices when that fails. 194 named characters already? I'm not so sure you should continue that project . . . that way lies madness.
This is the reason why I can't finish Song of Ice and Fire. Though the TV series is excellent and I am content to watch that instead.
Yeah, that's quite an undertaking with ASOIAF. I just kept plowing forward and figured if a character was important GRRM would let me know.
He is fairly good at that. There are some infodumps, but you do get the sense that he understands when his audience might be getting confused or bored. He strikes a fairly good balance of explaining things to the audience directly and through the world/character interactions, I think. As much as I love Malazan, you don't quite find that there; Erikson knows you're confused and laughs at you for it
The good side of this project is that when the second season finally begins in three weeks, I won't have any of those "Wait, Greyjoy? So he's not one of the Stark kids? And who are these two naked men having a political discussion during shaving? Renly who?" moments I had during the first watch. If they mention Yohn Royce I know that he's the Lord of Runestone, a bannerman to Arryns and a father of Ser Waymar Royce (a brother of Night's Watch, dead) and Ser Andar Royce. GRRM won't fool me! My only prediction for the second season is "Rocks fall, everybody dies".
Though I honestly don't remember that at all. I thought I'd been recommending "The Eleventh Hour" as a jumping in point since it first aired.
I feel like I let you down, now.
And you DIDN'T like it? But... when you put it like that, it sounds so awesome!
Anyway, yeah,
@instantdeath it's probably best to start with Series 5 "The Eleventh Hour", catch up with all the modern stuff, then go back to Series 1 "Rose".
EDIT: I removed my edit.
What does it relate to?
Privileges and immunities of officials under international law, which is pretty funny given the recent Lit thread about it. The professor's the United States member of said committee and so he'll basically guarantee that they'll read it, provided that they're good enough. Needless to say I want to make sure that it's good enough!
But I just got back a paper I wrote in 7 hrs on not much sleep that still managed to get an A from a former judge on the International Court of Justice, so at least I know that experts in the field don't think that I'm entirely stupid
The UN, the ICJ, hey? Sounds like you'll be going places when you're older, Jello.
I've thought about that myself, but I'm glancing at the columns of X-Men comics I'm currently indexing and deciding that one should only pursue one impossible project at a time.
Yeah, I've given up attempting to remember the details of every character in ASoIaF, if they come up I'll look them up or else Martin will give me sufficient information to work out who they are/their importance. That being said, I had no trouble with Season 2 of GoT - no confusing unknown (noteworthy) characters.
Yeah, I'm reading book 1 of Malazan right now and that's basically my experience. It's great- I like the characters (they don't irk me the way that a lot of the cast of Wheel of Time does), it's a neat setting, and his prose is fine, but I have no clue what the hell is going on. It suddenly jumped to Darujhistan, and now it's focusing on the Crone, I think?
To be fair, it wasn't just you -- somebody else (Hydro? Lord_Oblivion?) was also trying to sell me Rose. I just wasn't into her. It. The episode. And Jacen had just gone bad so seeing the World Brain starring on TV was like Embracing the Pain.
Also Eleventh Hour had just aired for the first time, so it was understandable you guys would be suspicious of a new doctor who broke into people's houses to raid their stores of fish custard.
Malazan and Wheel of Time suffer from opposite problems, I'd say. Malazan hits the ground running, and you don't really know what the hell is going on until you get a bit more into it (I'm actually not even half way through the series, but I'm at the point where I'm really enjoying it, and kind of want to go back and reread Gardens). Malazan books are so thick and, in a way, exhausting that I feel I need a break between books. Interesting thing about Malazan is that the second book focuses on completely new characters... some even recommend reading the second book first. The characters in the first book come back in the third, though.
Wheel of Time, on the other hand, starts off really slow and generic (and infodumpy). I really didn't like TEOTW, because I got the sense that it was a LOTR rip off with boring characters (apparently, Jordan intentionally gave it a familiar start, to make it easier to break into the fantasy market at the time). Luckily, it gets much more interesting, and peaks around book 4-5; by that time it's developed its own identity, and in my opinion (others disagree) characters have stopped being caricatures. Then it goes back to being really slow (the Andoran succession plot that runs through book 8-11 may be the most endurance testing thing a person can read)... then it gets better again for a strong finale. Luckily, Sanderson also smooths out some of the characters who never really stop being annoying. Schizophrenic series, that one.
On this subject, I think I'm going to reread ASOIAF sometime soon. Probably whenever the second half of Storm of Swords airs. The fact that it's unfinished has made me hold off on a reread, but I probably shouldn't hold my breath on that changing anytime soon.
@instantdeath: Cool, someone I can trust since your reaction was the same: I read the first Wheel of Time book last year, and was really, really bored. I know everyone raves about the series, but I assumed they were all more or less like the first one so I didn't have much interest continuing. So if they do get better as you claim, do I have to wait until books 4-5 before that happens?
Yeah, it's strange, since I hear so many people love the first one, though I personally think that's nostalgia. I just... wasn't a fan of the first one, until the last hundred pages or so, when we get a glimpse of what the series as a whole is about. The second book is also an "introductory" novel, but instead of focusing almost solely on Rand, we start to follow the girls a bit as they try to become Aes Sedai. I actually feel the second book has a very strong climax; by the time I finished the second one, I still had somewhat mixed reactions, but knew I'd enjoy the series. The third is interesting, in that the main character only appears briefly, near the beginning and at the end; Mat becomes a genuinely fun character to follow (and the series favorite). The fourth is where the series hits its high mark. There are some incredibly well written sections, the characters gain separate identities, and the plot itself becomes very interesting. It's not free from annoyances, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. To give you an idea, it took me months to read the first one, as I never found myself wanting to read more than a chapter at a time. It took me about two weeks to read the second one. By the time I got to the fourth one, the longest in the series, I had read it in just under a week. It definitely gets more engaging as it goes along.
The most appealing thing about the series is the detailed world, in pretty much all its aspects. One thing I will give Jordan, despite my gripes with some areas of his writing, is that every Wheel of Time book, even the slow ones, gave the sense that you were exploring. He did a good job establishing a world where rumor and myths can be more powerful than truth. Another thing Jordan is good at (something that made his fans go crazy between books, I understand) is that he's very skilled with foreshadowing. Some of this comes in the form of heavy-handed prophecy, and some of it is much more subtle. I haven't reread the books, and probably won't for at least a year or two (only finished the series less than a week ago), but I understand it's a good one to reread.
Unfortunately, the level of details works against the series, as well. Depending on who you talk to, the series begins to slow down. You can see evidence of this in book five, but I personally really enjoy that one. Others say book six, but are mostly mollified because it has one of the most extensive action sequences of the series. By about book seven, though, the plot definitely slows down, as he has to juggle about a bazillion POV characters, and some sub-plots come into play that arguably weren't needed. Interestingly enough, despite it becoming slow, it's hard to ever say Jordan intentionally uses filler; almost everything reveals something about the world (perhaps in greater volume than some would like), and seemingly insignificant events and discoveries can later turn out to be important. The world itself remains interesting throughout all these volumes, but I'm not the only one who wanted him to speed things up a bit. This finally happens in his last book, and by the time Sanderson takes over, it goes at breakneck speed. His final three books are not without their problems, but they form a very strong finale of the series. The last book, which came out very recently, does a very good job of portraying an earth shattering war. Oddly for a Wheel of Time book, almost 2/3 of it is battles. It's one of the most blood soaked books on the market (and important characters die! Whoa).
Luckily, the slower books were much less annoying for me than they were for other fans. If I had to wait two years to read Crossroads of Twilight, I would have been pissed. But because I knew I'd be able to read the series straight through, it didn't bother me. A novel that once seemed a roadblock was now much more manageable, since I knew I could just move on. The stalled pace didn't bother as much because I knew I'd reach the end, no matter how much detail he wants to give me on something I don't care about.
Some things that originally turned me off of the series at first was incredibly naive characters, an antagonist called "The Dark One", and characters that never, ever tell each other anything. That first one is solved to almost absurd degrees, as the main characters seems to become the author's punching bag. The second one is either solved or retconned, depending on your point of view. I don't think I'm alone in finding the villain of the first book incredibly lame, with some of the cheesiest dialogue in the genre. Turns out he was just an insane servant masquerading as him, and "The Dark One" is just called that by the public, people that don't truly understand him. By the time the final book rolled around, I was honestly getting a strong Lovecraftian vibe from him. I don't know if that's what Jordan intended or if Sanderson was responsible for that, but it's a hell of a lot better than a "big evil dude". Characters never fully drop the "never trust anyone ever" thing, but it gets a little better in Sanderson's books.
Err, in review, Wheel of Time is in my opinion a flawed but very entertaining series. Besides Lord of the Rings, I consider it the high mark of "playing it straight" fantasy (as opposed to people like Martin and Erikson who are subverting the genre). Ultimately, I feel the climax makes the slower middle books worth wading through. The thing about Jordan is that he can be slow, and he has many incredibly annoying tendencies and characterization habits, but when he's on the mark, he's really on the mark.
This gives me a much better picture then -- thanks! A lot of people had recommended I read Eye of the World and someone even gave me their much-loved dog-earred thrice-read copy, so I felt pretty bad after reading it and thinking it was one giant snoozefest. I didn't hate it, but it took me a while to read since the characters were so unemotionally stiff and the plot rambled on aimlessly most of the time. But I figure if so many people love the series, there must be something to it I haven't caught yet. So I guess I'd be willing to give the second one another go.
Ahhhh.... interesting. I will keep that in mind. There were a lot of off-hand references to subplots and locations I wanted him to explore more, but I wasn't sure if he was pulling a Silmarillion and just listing tons of potentially cool characters and myths without giving them any actual role to play in the long run.
Those were the exact problems I had with the first book as well -- although I wasn't even exactly sure of what was going on with the Dark One plot at the end of the novel. The pace and tone of the book took a 180 and sort of reminded me of the finale of the last Harry Potter after 400+ pages of walking, campfiring and tavern-drinking. If a couple of neurotic vagabonds could defeat a major dark power in the very first book, I had serious doubts about where the rest of the series was headed.
So all in all, thanks for the review! I think I'll probably give the series another go now...

Tactics - one tactic I always used no matter what its free form attacking instead of organized. I hate how if you take your striker to the left wing, the LW will just trail him, so instead in free form, he will attack the middle where your striker just was.
Tips - do not just buy high rated players because there rating is high, take a look at things that you need in your play style, ex. high stamina if you sprint alot, or skill moves if you do tricks. I personally will always stay away from players with stamina under 70.

Will be starting up a Liverpool career later tonight when I have the game, and I will also start a career with Anzhi at some point as I did successfully last year. Players who I'm very excited to try out include:
Sterling, Suso, Allen, Pacheco, Wisdom, Morgan (all Liverpool), Tello, Alba (both Barcelona), Dzsudzsak (Dinamo Moscow), Pomazan, Jucilei (both Anzhi), Doumbia, Dzagoev, Schennikov (all CSKA Moscow).

I've been playing with Napoli. Signed Subotic (he's heroic), Hangeland (not so good), Beckham for a bit of depth (and £140k/25k a week) and Raphael Varane on loan from Real. Currently sitting 2nd after beating Palermo and Fiorentina, although I lost in the Super Coppa to Juvé.
Varane's (76) a very good young talent. So too's Lorenzo Insigne (76) and Eduardo Vargas (77) seems to have good potential.

I started a career with Liverpool and signed Ilkay Gundogan from B. Dortmund, he's gone from OVR 80 up to OVR 85 so far, and he's quite young!
On another note, what's the deal with loan players? I still have Sahin and I'm near the end of my 2nd season, and Carroll still hasn't returned from West Ham?

Hi everyone.
I'm new to the forum, and joined up when I discovered this discussion going when looking for transfer suggestions for season mode. I only started playing FIFA about 3 months ago, but have put about 5 seasons into FIFA 12 on Professional. I've made the step up to World Class now.
I've taken charge of Brentford as they are currently my local team, but am languishing 2nd from bottom as I am finding World Class tough going. I'm still enjoying it mind...
After reading this thread I opted to bring in Bassam (GK) and Ali (winger) on free transfers and they have fitted into the starting line up. I only had about .5M transfer funds, but also brought in two of favourite players - Marvell Wynne and Arvydas Novikovas. The former for his pace and defensive abilities (I use him in the Makakele position), the latter because he's a pacy CF from Lithuania (where my wife is from). He was sadly crap in FIFA 12, but turns out to be half decent in FIFA 13 and is already one of my best players.

Go for shaqiri. I'm playin bayern munich which is his club and is a rotation player to start with so you may be able to get him cheaper but I'm playing him in the first team and after one season he has 98 acceleration 92 sprint speed 90 agility 85 stamina and 90+ dribbling

I just found a player Alessandro Pellè in free agents he's a 6'2 ft st with 65 overall and he's just 17. But I got a question I looked for his potential on websites like fifafanatic but it shows no player of this name how come then he be in my career mode.

sensacion7, I like your recommendation of Leonardo Taurino because he is one of the Players with the highest amount of growth Potential in the whole of FIFA 13's Career Mode.
Here are some more Players with big growth Potential who I signed for very little money at the start of my Sheffield United Career Mode:
Selected Players In - 1st Transfer Window of Season One:
Niklas Barkroth - 375k from IFK Goteborg (Allsvenskan)
Luke Shaw - 375k from Southampton (Premier League)
Scott Fraser - 80k from Dundee United (SPL)
Player Potential From FIFA 13 Career Mode Database: (Link)
Key: A = Ability, P = Potential, PG = Potential Growth, GSF = Growth So Far (Up to January 2013 of Season One)
LB - Luke Shaw - Southampton - Age:16 - A:58 - P:83 - PG:+25 - GSF:+5 To 63
Description: Shaw is also large at 6ft 1" and has improved very quickly.
CM - Scott Fraser - Dundee United - Age:17 - A:46 - P:79 - PG:+33 - GSF:+6 To 52
Description: Fraser has the largest Attribute Growth Potential in the whole game, a nice experimental Player.
ST - Niklas Barkroth - IFK Goteborg - Age:20 - A:58 - P:80 - PG:+22 - GSF:+5 To 63
Description: Barkroth is a massive Bargain at 375k, Right Footed with incredible Pace.
lukele87, as for the suggestions on Players you should Sign for your Career Mode with Blackpool I can highly recommend any of the Players given in my experimental Sheffield United Career Mode Updates:
The latest Player Growth Update compiled at the End of Season 2 can be found here: (Here)
Depending on your Budget you may be able to spend a little more on Players with slighty Higher Potential below:
Player Potential From FIFA 13 Career Mode Database: (Link)
Key: SA = Starting Ability, P = Potential, PG = Potential Growth
Potential 88 Players
Gabriel - CDM/CM - Pro Vercelli - Age:18 - SA: 66 - P:88 - PG:+22
Leali - GK - Virtus Lanciano - Age:19 - SA:71 - P:88 - PG:+17
Masi - CB - Pro Vercelli - Age:19 - SA:71 - P:88 - PG:+17
Pogba - CDM - Juventus - Age:19 - SA:72 - P:88 - PG:+16
Potential 87 Players
Bouy - CAM - Brescia - Age:19 - SA:67 - P:87 - PG:+20
Fischer - LW/CAM - Ajax - Age:18 - SA:67 - P:87 - PG:+20
There are plenty more Players with High Potential, but these Players start the Game by being rated at a relatively low Attribute levels, so they may be able to be Signed for bargain Fee's.
I hope this helps.

I've been very busy lately, however I've managed to complete a season of my new Villarreal career and start up the new season.
Normally in careers I win every game, but this can become quite boring and hence, after a perfect first season (largely simmed as I only really valued it as a squad building season), I'm going to push myself and play the second season on World Class, a difficulty I've never played before.
I debated playing on Professional but I was concerned, after a comfy win against Inter in pre-season, that even on Pro I could probably win the majority of games and win the league - not really what I want. Problem is that I'm really sloppy on World Class, but I'm hoping that at the very least the season of playing above my ability will vastly increase how good I am!
Anyway, here's my team just after the summer transfer window has finished:
Butland (Birmingham City) - 1.6m euros - now valued 4.4m euros - 74
Montoya (Barcelona) - 6m euros plus reserve striker (value 300k) - now valued 8m euros - 78
Musacchio - now valued 8m euros - 79
Nastasic (Man City) - 10m euros - recent acquisition - 78
Daprela (Brescia) - 1.4m euros - now valued 3.6m euros - 76
Pogba (Juventus) - 13m euros - recent acquisition - 78
Obi (Inter) - swap (Bruno) - recent acquisition - 78
Falque (Spurs) - 7m euros (originally had a loan buy out of 7.2m which Spurs blocked) - recent acquisition - 78
Suso (Liverpool) - swap (Cani) - now valued 6m euros - 75
Pacheco (Liverpool) - ~5m euros - recent acquisition - 76
Zaha (Crystal Palace) - ~5m euros - recent acquisition - 75
Gaspar - 73
Lejeune - 73
Ozdoev (Lokomotiv) - 72
Perez - 74
Leitner (Dortmund) - 75
Bille - 72
Piazon - 72
I haven't had chance to play many games, however my stars of last season were Pacheco, Butland, Pogba and Daprela. I also had Deulofeu (Barcelona B) who I very highly recommend. Suso and Deulofeu worked really well as wingers of a front three as they were a left footer on the right and vice versa, hence they did well cutting inside and getting goals. I wanted to keep him but I got a 8 million euro bid from PSG (he was valued 6 million). I counter offered 15 million, because obviously if I got that much I could get a quality replacement, and PSG accepted the proposal.
I wanted Labyad (Sporting Lisbon) on the left wing, however I had spent a lot of money bringing in players who did well on loan last season (Pogba, Falque, Pacheco) and a new face (Nastasic) and these cost more than I'd expected, hence Zaha was the cheaper alternative. I'm now absolutely skint!
In terms of tips, I would suggest offering straight swaps for younger players by offering your older players up in alternative. I got two really good swap deals:
Cani (30+ y.o. RM, rated 76, valued 2.2m euros) for Suso (~20 y.o. RW, rated 71, valued 3m euros)
Bruno (29 y.o. CDM, rated 82, valued 8m euros) for Obi (~20 y.o. CM, rated 78, valued 11m euros).
My season so far has been up and down, my first game on World Class was a 1-1 draw in a friendly vs. Frieburg, which I should have won but they scored a free kick to keep it level. I then got soundly beaten 4-0 over two legs against Barcelona in the Super Cup. The league has started okay(ish), with a win (Mallorca home), two draws (Malaga away, someone else at home) and one loss (Zaragoza away). I'm in about midtable at the minute and unfortunately the board want me to qualify for the Euro League. This is certainly achievable with the squad I have, however I will have to improve quickly!
Addition: You might wonder why I sold Rossi - I really wanted to get the money to build a more balanced team and the money has certainly helped buy some of the young, high potential players I have, whereas Rossi was being outplayed by Pacheco and wasn't growing either.
I do have a save file from the back end of last season, however I am currently (meant to be) working and am away from the xbox. When I go back to it later I will either update or add a new post with growths.

After narrowly avoiding relegation with Brentford on World Class, and yes, that did involve playing one particular match against MKDons 10 times ;-), my 2nd season save file seems to have issues, with my first competitive kick off marred by the fact that the ball disappeared and my players were chasing an invisible ball.
In addition, Brentford have such little funds that my intention to play a similar way to Boomerang Cat is not possible.
I may well take a punton Cardiff in the Championship and hope that the funds available make a bit of a difference, and of course that my ball doesn't vanish.
I'll definitely try and straight swap for some of the 88 and 87 potential players mentioned above!

Thanks for your help Boomerang Cat. I will post how my players are developing throughout the season at a later date... I have recently added Leandro on loan from Gremio who I used in Fifa 12 and grows to the mid 80's as I recall and have bought Connor Wickham from Sunderland so have a strong front line at the moment. I like the look of the Pro Vercelli youngsters so will try and sell a few more players to fund their purchases in January.

So following the issues I was having with my save file with Brentford I thought I'd change tack and try something different. I was struggling with Brentford's lack of funds and ended up with a small squad with not many rotation options.
To up the enjoyment I've opted to manage Monaco who have a healthy transfer budget and 9 players that have the potential to get up to at least 75.
I pursued many of the players identified earlier in the thread and for the first time ever have two starting 11s, which still seems excessive to me. Sadly I've already been knocked out of one of the cup competitions, so I may struggle to keep everyone happy.
On the plus side, I am improving no end, and am only 4 points off the top in the league. I am also extremely happy with my first team, which has an average potential of 81. I also managed to snag Fischer who will go up to 87!
Barkroth 80
Lumu 82
Piazon 85
Fischer 87
Ocampos 82
Ndinga 78
L. Benito 80
Rogne 82
Putsko 80
Wynne 66
Cragno 85
I'll post again at the end of the season to show what these players started off on and how they are progressing. I'll also show my 2nd 11 and let you know how these guys get on. They have an average of 77.
Just a quick note on Wynne. He apparently has a potential rating of 66 overall, however I got him to 68 in my first season with Brentford, so that seems off. He is incredibly fast and chipped in with two goals on the first day of the season. Him, Novikovas and Johnny Russell feature in all my FIFA teams at some point...

Hey all, bumped into this forum just now and thought it was pretty interesting - decided to lend some of my personal experiences with players I've used and been impressed with.
When I was playing with Hannover:
At Hannover:
ST: Mame Diouf - starts 77 - potential 80. Has really good speed, finishing, strength and heading. Perfect as a lone striker and extremely cheap for how talented he is.
CDM: Manuel Schmiedebach - starts 75 - potential 80. Great stamina, generally talented all round. Grows well and quickly.
RM: Lars Stindl - starts 77 - potential 81. All round skilled player, not especially quick but dependable player.
CM: Moritz Leitner - starts 74 - potential 83. Not overly cheap to buy but well worth it. Very quick, agile and brilliant as a CAM style player. Great for generating chances for other team members.
CAM: Siems De Jong - starts 77 - potential 83+ (so fifa says lower at 80 but he is 83 on my game). I played this guy in behind my striker in a 4-2-2-1-1 style formation and he's a beast. Scored so many goals with his ridiculous long shots (90+) and fantastic finishing. Highly recommend this guy.
ST: Luc Castaignos -starts 74 - potential 85. With Diouf in my team (who I adore, as said above) it was hard to want to play Luc. However after a year (maybe year and a half) the effort was well worth it. Very fast, skilled and great finishing. Has potential to be exceptional.
With Portsmouth:
In team:
To be honest there is nothing worth talking about in the team. Loads of youngsters but none with great potential. My work has come through free agents and then young players.
ST: Jose Adolfo Valencia - starts 64, potential 76. Bought this guy as he is super fast, strong and an all round useful player - cost me around 1.6mil at 70 rating. His finishing is pretty bad, but since finesse shooting has been nerfed hard, it matters much less. After a very solid season he grew to 73 and was sold for 7mil. Would have happily retained him but about 10 teams bid for him.
CDM: Auremir - starts 68, potential 75. So solid in midfield. Pacey for this position and able to play further forward, back or on either side. Is still the main stay of my midfield.
I can't comment yet but my starting line up is now:
GK: Butland - 69 with 85 potential
LB: Shaw - 68 with 83 potential
CB: Ake - 59 with 84 potential
CB: Alessio Romagnoli - 67 with 84 potential
RB: Elliott Hewitt - 58 with potential 81
Auremir - 68 with 75 potential
CDM: Can't remember second CDM atm
LM: Joshua King - 65 with 74 potential (used on LM-great pace)
RM: Lucas Andersen - 67 with 85 potential
CAM:Powell - 65 with 79 potential
ST: Yesil - 64 with 83 potential
(note all initial figures are from the start of the game, I am in year 3 and all are around the 71-74 region at this stage)
I anticipate keeping the back 5 with subs to be bought, however I am obviously going to need a proper LM (I have a 16 year old from youth with 86 potential, but I don't like using "fake" players - so will sell him) and I don't imagine I'll keep powell as my first CAM. With more money I'll try and get someone else.
I'm actually in the premiership after finishing 6th in the championship and winning the playoff. Currently doing ok, but anticipate a year (or two) to establish myself. Very unlikely I'll get relegated though. Was in the euro league in season two - having finished second in the FA cup first season after some fluley results. (Chelsea won and were in Champions League) Got totally detroyed sadly
Hope this is of some interest

A good bargain is Raheem Sterling of Liverpool. Overall is 69 in the beginning but it rises well.
If you want a profitable striker then buy Luis Muriel, bought him in the Summer transfer window for £13 million. Real Madrid offered £25 million in January!

Fulham Manager Career
Fulham in Manager Career on World Class
Had a big clear out straight away but kept Dimitar Berbatov as main attacking threat. Didn't have much money, brought in a good scout and stuck with most of my starting squad for first chunk of the season. Only 2 worthwhile signings were Wellington Nem and Raheem Sterling. Signed Paul Pogba on a season loan from Juve too.
Signed Ben Arfa, Kyle Walker and Emenike in January with some trades and money and they helped me finish 4th in first season and win the League Cup.
Signed El Shaarawy, Lass, Fischer, Forrest, Gary Gardner, David Alaba, Paul Pogba on a permanent contract, Ogbonna and Akinfeev in the Summer.
Just finished the January window of 2014 and only 2 deal done was a straight swap for Stevan Jovetic for Emenike and Ben Arfa for Lucas Moura. Emenike was an absolute beast and figured he'd pretty much peaked when I let him go as was on an 84 overall and Jovetic was an 85 with room to grow. Ben Arfa was also an 84 but Lucas an 83 at 21 years old. Only paid £8.5m + an unknown player. Thought good business in both deals but massively missing Emenike. Jovetic just not doing the business for me unfortunately!
Current Starting 11 and ratings
Akinfeev 88
Walker 83
Hangelaand 81
Ogbonna 84
Alaba 79
Pogba 80
Gardner 76
Lucas 83
Wellington Nem 83
El Shaarawy 82
Jovetic 86
Notable subs/reserves/loaned and ratings
Sterling 78
Forrest 78
Lass 75
Boakye 77
Vorsah 77
Currently sat 2nd in league, in all domestic cups and just drawn 1-1 with Inter in first leg of last 16 in Europe.
Wish I hadn't done the Emenike deal at the moment, going to try and get him back in the summer! He was way top scorer and seemed pretty much unplayable in every match. Definitely the best player I've used in career but Wellington Nem is pretty special too - no one can catch him!

New Design Hotel Topazz In Vienna's Smallest Central Building Sites
The collaboration between Austrian architects BWM Architekten und Partner and interior designer Michael Manzenreiter resulted in erecting a fascinating hotel in central Vienna. The new Hotel Topazz rises 10 stories in the air on one of the city's smallest building sites and its dark mosaic facade pierced by rounded windows cannot be ignored. Each of the elliptical windows corresponding to a hotel room/bath are lined with cushions to offer guests the possibility of enjoying surrounding views from the window seat. Roundly – cornered and topped off with a selection of the finest textures both on the outside and on the inside, the new design hotel boasts unconventional lines and comfortable, luxurious rooms that make up for the very small building lot, only 153 square meters. Sustainable materials are part of the hotel's energy-saving concept, as well as linen and locally- sourced food and drinks. Described as "reminiscent of a sculptural creation by Koloman Moser – a sparkling cylinder, studded with large, oval precious stones", Hotel Topazz is defined by its elegance and Viennese charm showcased in the heart of Vienna.
One comment
The exterior treatment reminds me of that ancient Chinese form of therapy called Cupping therapy, where local suction is created on the skin with glass cups –yuck!– and the final result looks exactly like that building.
The suites are gorgeous!!

U.S. Granted Access to Tunisian Suspected of Involvement in Benghazi Attacks
By Paul Rosenfeld | Nov 3 2012Ali Ani al-Harzi ,Benghazi ,Lindsey Graham ,saxby chambliss ,suspect ,
In a joint statement issued Friday, U.S. Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) said, The Tunisian government has granted in-person access to Ali Ani al-Harzi, a suspect in the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi.
Friday's press release follows earlier warnings, made by Graham and Chambliss, that if not granted access to the suspect, the U.S. could reconsider aid to Tunisia.
They continued by assuring that the interviews will be under Tunisian supervision and consistent with their sovereignty while simultaneously ensuring that these arrangements meet the needs of our investigative team.
The senators lamented the unfortunate amount of time it took to gain access, but welcomed the development as proof that this tight collaboration between our countries shows the growing strength of our partnership.
Graham and Chambliss concluded by saying, Tunisia is where the Arab Spring began and these latest events reaffirm the growing alliance between our two countries.
Why did it take two Republican senators to obtain access to this man for the FBI. Obviosly the Obama Administration did not want to talk to him til after the election. Or better yet-never.
Juan, it is clear you are one of the enemies of the progress President Obama has brought to the USA. Senator Graham and his republican cronies are just politicizing this issue and the Americans can definitely see through the smokescreen. Continue to fool around my friend. By God's grace, President Barack Hussein Obama would be re-elected on Tuesday, November 06, 2012 and your heads would explode.
this is a non issue for Tunisians…it has been politicized and overblown by the Romney campaign. There was no issue for the Tunisians to provide the FBI with access to this guy in accordance with Tunisian law and sovereignty (assuming the FBI won't water-board this guy :)). I don't understand this obnoxious Lindsey (I am not gay) Graham…It is clear that he wants to score some political points for Romney.
GIVE ME A BREAK! Half of you people have no clue what the real story is. You are taking seconhand data from a third-hand source! Think about it…WHAT IS NEEDED is not anyone going and doing long, tedious investigations to find any wrongdoings of the Reps or Dems…It needs to be a no-questions-asked "Munich" (film) type situation. Small Tier 1 elements being sent on their own, no ROEs, just a good SIGINT element supporting (TF Orange/"Activity"/ISA?) and about fifty door-kickers. End of story

The High School Valedictory Address You Weren't Supposed To Hear
By Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan
Evan Young was the valedictorian of this year's graduating class at Twin Peaks Charter Academy High School, in Longmont, Colorado, and planned to give the valedictory address. But his principal never gave him the chance because Evan planned to come out as gay in the speech for the first time. Evan eventually got to give his speech — two weeks later, not far from where Matthew Shepard, a young gay man, was beaten and tortured in 1998.

4.7 Liter Tuner advice
Hey everyone!
New to Jeeps and new to here. I have a 05 WK with the 4.7 V8 motor. I also have a RAM truck with a 5.7 L in it. I have been using a tuner with it for several years now and really like what I can do with it. I want to get one for my Jeep too.
I have seen the Trinity tuners but don't think I can get one for my Jeep with the 4.7 motor.
I have used SuperChips before and like them just fine.
What do you think my best options are?
Where is a good place to buy one?
Anybody know of any deals around?
Re: 4.7 Liter Tuner advice
Superchips is your best bet. Some 05-06 4.7's can use the Sct Tuners
Give Sean at firstname.lastname@example.com a shout. He Is a tuner and distributor for SCT. He will be able to tell you if your vehicle Is covered by a tuner.
