Megaman will appear on Consoles and Portables - According to Svensson at Capcom, Megaman is not dead, and will be coming back.
Megaman Will Appear on Consoles and Portables
In the November issue of Nintendo Power magazine, Capcom USA senior vice-president Christian Svensson was asked about the future of Megaman.
Svensson: "I can say with certainty that you've not seen the last of the Blue Bomber on consoles and handhelds, and, with luck, we'll be celebrating his 50th anniversary, including all of the games you're going to enjoy over the next 25 years. That said, an issue we've had in

I'm not an expert but I figured I could let people know my process if it helps them out, so here it is in all its glory.
1. Pre-Production:
-Obviously the first thing to do is set all your ideas on the table and begin piecing together what you want to do like figuring out which characters are going to be absolutely necessary to the story and which you'd like to include but may not be able to have.
Also finding out which elements you'd like to cross-over because not everything will work both ways.
It also helps to throw in some original ideas so it looks like something new rather than a re-hash of the two existing series'.
-Once you have your basic story outlined and prepared, start creating resources that you are going to use.
Some concept art, background designs, or character models are great things to show people that might be interested in helping you out; especially if you'r

10 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Clockwork1. Clocky has a lot of french blood in her veins, but doesn't have an accent.10 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Clockwork2 years ago in Personal More Like This
2. She really loves science and doing experiments
3. She's 100% full up straight in sexuality
4. She's very curious, and loves to find out new things. If you were to first meet her; she would examine you head to toe, and probably poke you in a couple places. She is also incredible at reading people.
5. She virtually never gets any sleep. The only time she does is if she's in bed with Ticci toby, (doesn't have to be sexual stfu >I) or if she gets so tired to the point where she just passes out one day.
6. She hates slenderman with a burning passion.
7. She see's Jeff as a brother, like a replacement for the shitty one she had before she became a murderer
8. She isn't careful; at all. She's pretty wreckless when it comes to fights, because she may have the balls to fight just about anyone, but because of this she usually gets hurt a lot. She can also be pretty cocky sometimes
9. If you get her to care about you

Laughing Jack UsageIm not sure if Ive ever publicly stated this or not but, everybody can use LJ, nobody has to ask me permission to use Laughing Jack for anything. Im 100% ok with people using him or my other characters for whatever inspires them. (no the lemons and NSFW stuff does not bother me every fandom has it, its perfectly normal and in no way "ruins" the character. If you want to keep LJ's horror appeal then just dont look at that stuff lol its pretty simple ^^)Laughing Jack Usage8 months ago in Personal More Like This
I try to look at as much LJ art as I can. Honestly its so flattering that so many people have been so inspired by my character to make all the fan art, fan fics, ships, comics, original voices, videos, cosplays, crafts, games, etc.
It means so much to me that my characters and my art can touch so many people in such a positive way!
So anyways, thanks for all the fan art everybody! I hope to see much more to come ^^ <3

Based on Melissa de la Cruz's New York Times best-selling novel, Witches of East End centers on the Beauchamp family, where in season one sisters Freya and Ingrid discovered they are witches with ancient magical powers. With the help of their mother Joanna and Aunt Wendy, they learned how to cultivate their craft and work together to defeat unearthly enemies seeking revenge on their family, while keeping their abilities a secret from the town.
This season, with the portal to Asgard open, what comes through will forever change the lives of the Beauchamps. Darkness surrounds East End as a new stranger arrives. Joanna is still weak with poison in her blood as the Beauchamps search desperately for a cure. With the death of Penelope, Killian and Dash's warlock powers return. #DarknessIsRising

On March 1, 2012 the Nevada DMV issued the first license for a Google Driverless Car. The idea behind this innovation is that one day soon new technology will drive cars safer and more skillfully than humans, thus saving lives and billions of dollars in car crashes. How well this idea catches on is a bit questionable, given the powerful "romance" of driving one's car, but it's certainly an indicator of things to come in the daily intersection of human and artificial intelligence and mobility. There have always been those who have dreamed of stepping into a mechanical exo-skeletal-type "suit" and letting the engineering do the work, insta

Early life becomes an exploration of invisible parameters, circles beyond circles, as one pushes out to test the boundaries of safety. There is one's bedroom, one's home, neighborhood, school and town, state and nation. Early on, maps become important documents – declarations of being and rights and privileges.

Ken Buck, cowboy boots on the ground, stays in it to win it against Michael Bennet
In late August 2009, Jane Norton had not yet entered the U.S. Senate race -- although her anointment by Republic Party powers was imminent. Former Congressman Bob Beauprez had just announced that he'd decided against a run. That seemed to leave just Aurora City Councilman Ryan Frazier, since reports had Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck dropping out. What a difference a year makes.
Last October, facing the well-funded Norton campaign, Frazier wisely decided to switch to a race for Ed Perlmutter's seventh Congressional seat -- a decision that paid off with his easy victory in the primary last night.
Buck, of course, stayed in it to win it.
How close did he really come to leaving the Senate race in late August 2009? When I asked him that at the Independence Institute's ATF event three weeks ago, Buck wasn't eager to talk about it. So instead, we talked about the new Jane Norton ad that challenged him to be a man -- after she'd already played the gender card in numerous campaign appearances. And that, of course, led to Buck's "I don't wear high heels" and "Weld County bullshit" comment.
And Buck wound up giving a big kick in the pants to Norton -- and the party powers -- with his cowboy boots. Bullshit and all.

ROME (Reuters) - Pope Francis said that violence and destruction in Iraq offends God and humanity and he held a silent prayer for victims of the conflict during his weekly address in Rome on Sunday.
"We are left incredulous and dismayed by the news coming from Iraq," the Argentine-born pontiff said, two days after the United States began air strikes to tackle an insurgency that threatens to tear the country apart.
"Thousands of people, among them many Christians, banished brutally from their houses, children dying of hunger and thirst as they flee, women kidnapped, people massacred, violence of all kinds, destruction everywhere ... All of this deeply offends God and deeply offends humanity."
A hush fell over the crowd in Saint Peter's Square after Francis, who has been tweeting calls to pray for the people of Iraq over the last two days, interrupted his prepared speech to ask for a moment of silence.
Francis thanked volunteers in Iraq and said his personal envoy Cardinal Fernando Filoni would leave Rome for Iraq on Monday, "to assure those dear people that I am near them".
The Vatican said in a statement later on Sunday that the Pope met Filoni to discuss the mission, which is intended to show solidarity with Christians in Iraq in particular, and gave the envoy a sum of money to provide urgent help to the people worst affected.
In his address, the pope also said a failed ceasefire in Gaza could only worsen conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, and prayed for victims of the Ebola virus and those working to stop it.

Former Weber State guard Damian Lillard explains his fear of 'historic statues'
Ben Brewer, Deseret News
Former Weber State guard and star NBA rookie Damian Lillard uses his speed and quickness to blow past on-court opponents. Based on a recent tweet, it seems the only things that can slow him down don't move at all.
During a recent trip to Washington, D.C., Lillard tweeted that he found the city's monuments to America's historical figures unnerving:
I like DC. I wana come back and visit the memorialseven though I'm scared of statues— Damian Lillard (@Dame_Lillard) November 28, 2012
People I'm only scared of historic statues. Abraham Lincoln , MLK, etc . Had a bad experience at the wax museum lmao— Damian Lillard (@Dame_Lillard) November 28, 2012
Lillard explained his phobia to reporters before Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards.
"I've always been scared of historic stuff like that. If I see statues of Jesus, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr. — all that stuff kind of gives me a funny feeling," Lillard told USA Today reporter Jeff Zillgett.
The former Wildcat identified a trip to a wax museum before his senior year at Weber State as a possible cause of the aversion.
"The last room was Barack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln — all these big-time historic people, and it looked just like them. Same size," Lillard said. "They had music playing in the room to set the mood, and it just threw me off."
Lillard was the sixth overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft. He is averaging 19.1 points and 6.1 assists per game for the Portland Trail Blazers.

A.J. Foyt might run Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart in Indy 500
Jun 5, 2014, 4:54 PM EDT
Legendary driver-turned-owner A.J. Foyt says he would consider fielding a race car for Jeff Gordon or Tony Stewart – or both – in next year's Indianapolis 500.
"If (Gordon) wanted to, yes he could do a good job at Indy and if he wanted to, I'd consider it," Foyt told The Detroit News. "Tony too. I gave Tony his first Indy ride in testing. Definitely I would (consider giving them a seat) because I know they could do the job."
It would be a milestone 500 for Foyt, who turns 80 next January. The four-time Indy 500 winner would be celebrating his 58th year in racing that year, as well.
One of the reasons Foyt is inspired to run cars for Gordon and/or Stewart was Kurt Busch's impressive rookie debut in this year's Indy 500, finishing sixth, he told The News' David Gorecki.
"I think (Busch) did a good job," said Foyt, adding that he wasn't surprised at how well Busch did. "No, he always has been a hard driver. I think he got away with a lot of stuff that should have bit him like that one day (crash on Monday prior to race), but he did a good job."
The question now is whether Stewart or Gordon would be interested in joining forces with Foyt, especially since it would likely cost about $1 million for just the one-off month of May effort.
Then again, if you were a potential sponsor who could have your company's name associated with Jeff Gordon or Tony Stewart and at the fabled Indianapolis 500, you'd probably be ready to write a check for $2 million to make sure both drivers get into next year's race, which would be the 99th running of the Greatest Spectacle in Motorsports.

That would be cool beyond words!

I don't like to wish away time, but that would sure be something special.
- indycarseries500 - Jun 6, 2014 at 9:20 AM
Haha, he's just saying because he knows they won't. Jeff has no interest, Tony has no interest in giving up soda cookies and Chevy damn sure won't be letting these two drive Hondas.
- indycar02 - Jun 6, 2014 at 8:48 PM
dont forget a few years back jeff drove montoyas f1 car, tony drove hamilton's f1 car, also with indys 100th 2 years off, by then foyt might be back with chevy.
- jdracer - Jun 9, 2014 at 2:33 PM
When Jeff swapped it was Chevy/BMW. When Tony swapped it was Chevy/Mercedes. They aren't competing for the buyer market like Chevy/Honda are.
- huskyfrk - Jun 24, 2014 at 3:50 AM
stranger things have happened. tony might, but doubt jeff would. but lets keep our fingers crossed and see what happenes.
- rho1953 - Aug 2, 2014 at 5:27 PM
Well, you don't know what engine Foyt will be running next year, do you? Teams change engine manufacturers all the time, that wouldn't be anything unusual. I would like to see Gordon give it a shot, I think he has what it takes to drive open wheel.

Chronic coughing is often the result of hyper reactivity of the airways which have become irritated and oversensitive. It is a deep, dry cough with hardly any phlegm.
It is a common problem.
Chronic coughing can be exhausting because it is usually tends to come in bouts characterised by 'Hair Trigger Cough Reflexes' where each coughing bout triggers the next one like a domino effect.
Chronic coughs are often first triggered by an infection, usually a cold, flu or chest infection that aggravates the sensitive linings of your airways.
Once this happens just the slightest thing – physical exertion, cold air, stress – even talking can trigger off a vicious cycle of coughing.
Though your cold or chest infection might last days, chronic coughing can last months.
A course of oral steroids may work.
Or you could try a totally natural solution. The SALT PIPE SALT INHALER.
Its a ceramic pipe with a little chamber containing a special type of mined salt. You inhale the pipe drawing in 'Salty Air' through your mouth and exhaling through your nose, doing this a few times in the morning and the evening the moment your cold starts to takes hold.
The concept of the SALT PIPE SALT INHALER was developed decades ago when it was observed that Salt Miners rarely if ever developed respiratory illnesses.
Scientists believe that inhaling 'Salty Air' helps accelerate the cleansing and healing process and rid the respiratory system of the irritants and inflammation created by your cold, flu or chest infection.
For thousands of satisfied customers all over the world who have literally dreaded the onset of a cold for the misery of the interminable coughing that follows for weeks or months on end, there is nothing like the soothing effects of The SALT PIPE SALT INHALER to soon help put an end to this exhausting, debilitating, distressing and depressing chronic coughing naturally.
The SALT PIPE SALT INHALER. NO COUGHING MATTER!

The story of the golden goose describes very well the world of dividend investing. On the outside, dividend stocks act like normal stocks as they go up in bull markets and go down in bear markets. On the inside however, these cash machines generate so much in excess cash flow that they are able to successfully reinvest in their business, while also paying higher dividends every year. Investors who hold onto their dividend growth stocks get a dividend check every quarter. Selling those dividend stocks and investing in the next hot tech stock would mean that investors would not be getting their golden eggs in a timely manner anymore, and would be at the mercy of the markets for their returns.
Several golden geese, announced plans to deliver higher dividends ( larger golden eggs) to their shareholders:
Hingham Institution for Savings (HIFS) provides various financial services to individuals and small businesses in Massachusetts. The company raised quarterly distributions by 4% to 26 cents/share. The bank typically pays a special dividend equivalent to the amount of regular quarterly distribution plus one penny. As a result, it essentially pays 5 quarterly dividends in a year. This marked the 18th consecutive annual dividend increase for this dividend achiever. Yield: 2.10% (analysis)
General Mills, Inc. (GIS) manufactures and markets branded consumer foods worldwide. It also supplies branded and unbranded food products to the foodservice and commercial baking industries. The company raised quarterly distributions by 8.20% to 33 cents/share. This marked the ninth consecutive annual dividend increase for General Mills. Yield: 3.50%
Duke Energy Corporation (DUK), together with its subsidiaries, operates as an energy company in the United States and Latin America. The company raised quarterly distributions by 2% to 25.50 cents/share. This marked the eighth consecutive annual dividend increase for Duke Energy Corporation. Yield: 4.40%
Darden Restaurants, Inc. (DRI) operates full service restaurants in the United States and Canada. It operates restaurants under the Red Lobster, Olive Garden, LongHorn Steakhouse. The company raised quarterly distributions by 16.30% to 50 cents/share. This marked the eighth consecutive annual dividend increase for Darden Restaurants. Yield: 4%
W. P. Carey & Co. LLC (WPC), together with its subsidiaries, provides long-term sale-leaseback and build-to-suit transactions for companies worldwide and manages a global investment portfolio. The company raised quarterly distributions to 56.70 cents/share. W. P. Carey & Co has raised dividends for 15 years in a row. Yield: 4.90%

Author information
David Howarth ran a spy ring during World War II from which this book was derived. Mr. Howarth, who died in 1991, was the author of two dozen major books of history.
Review quote
"One of the best adventure stories to come out of any war ... a story of heroism and high endeavor upon the sea." -The New York Times Book Review "Mr. Howarth does an especially good job of describing, without any heroics, the vicissitudes undergone by the survivors of these expeditions, many of whom managed to fight their way out of Norway and to freedom." -The New Yorker "One after another of Howarth's stories shows the skill, hardihood, and sheer courage of his men." -Chicago Tribune "For many of us the stories of Beowulf and Siegfried were required reading, but here in this modern saga are tales of resourcefulness, discipline, character and heroism which match the courage of those legendary heroes and excel them by their impulsion of patriotism and brotherly love." -Christian Science Monitor
Back cover copy
The occupation of Western Europe and Scandinavia in the spring of 1940 crippled Britain s ability to gather intelligence information. After the Germans invaded Norway, many Norwegians knew that small boats were constantly sailing from the Shetland Islands to land weapons, supplies, and agents and to rescue refugees. In The Shetland Bus, David Howarth, who was second in command of the Shetland base, recounts the hundreds of trips made by fishing boats in the dark of Arctic winter to resist the Nazi onslaught. For the Norwegians who remained in Norway, the Shetland Bus as this dangerous operation became known fortified them both physically and spiritually. Nothing but war would have made seamen attempt such dangerous journeys. Some stretched two thousand miles in length and lasted as long as three weeks in boats only fifty to seventy-five feet long. Fishing boats crossing the North Sea were sometimes attacked and sunk in minutes, hundreds of miles from a friendly ship or shore. Their crews had no hope of being saved. But to take the Shetland Bus meant escape when capture became the only other option. The Shetland Bus is the amazing true-life account of storms, attacks, danger, and the heroic efforts of brave men."

Merger brings together best of breed companies to create unparalleled insight opportunities
London, UK and Oslo, Norway and New York, NY: January 22nd, 2014: Confirmit has today announced the acquisition of Integrasco, a leader in social intelligence and text analytics. The acquisition brings advanced technologies for capturing social insights and analysing unstructured text into the Confirmit portfolio of software offerings for Customer Experience, Employee Engagement and Market Research.
Integrasco is a leader in analytical technology solutions and has helped many blue-chip companies track the performance of their brands, products and services, across social media, traditional media and customer channels to extract significant commercial value from mining unstructured text and insights.
Henning Hansen, President and CEO, Confirmit explains, "The acquisition of Integrasco underlines Confirmit's commitment to providing customers with the most comprehensive product suite for intelligence-driven action. Customers will be able to take full advantage of text-based feedback from almost any data source, including social media and survey verbatims, enabling them to keep pace with the rapid growth of this type of data and achieve greater competitive advantage".
The move, which follows the previous successful acquisitions of CustomerSat in 2012, Techneos in 2011 and Pulse Train in 2007, will enable businesses to gather relevant social media feedback at the point of experience. They can then tightly integrate this data with information gathered through the wide range of other channels supported by Confirmit, and generate new and valuable insights using the advanced sentiment analysis. Customers will be able to achieve new levels of insight from wider Voice of the Customer and Market Research programmes.
"In our experience, Integrasco is the only company that can deliver outstanding analytical solutions of this type alongside world class technology," said Olle Hagelin, Head of Field Quality, Sony Mobile Communications. "They've allowed us to master the big data space to deliver huge benefits to our business. We have achieved significant Return on Investment in our field operations through the investment in Integrasco solutions, and I am excited about the opportunity the integration with Confirmit solutions will bring".
Terry Lawlor, EVP Product Management at Confirmit adds, "This move is a significant development for both organisations. Integrasco has created some of the most innovative and effective social intelligence and text analytics solutions on the market. Adding these capabilities to the Confirmit product suite is a huge step forward in enabling us to take these solutions to a wider audience. We're delighted that both Confirmit and Integrasco's customers will have the opportunity to achieve greater insights through integrating social and text analytics with their Voice of the Customer and Market Research programmes".
Confirmit plans to release the Integrasco technology integrated with its Confirmit Horizons version 18 software in Q2 2014.

With SaaS use rampant across organizations, how can IT departments track company data and maintain security? More and more departments are commissioning their own solutions and bypassing IT. A cloud environment is amorphous and powerful, allowing you to set up solutions for all of your user needs: document sharing and collaboration, mobile access, e-mail, even industry-specific applications.

Malicious agents are moving faster than the speed of business. Even more worrisome, most companies are relying on legacy approaches to security that are no longer capable of meeting current threats. In the modern cloud, threat diversity is rapidly expanding, necessitating more sophisticated security protocols than those used in the past or in desktop environments. Yet companies are falling for cloud security myths that were truths at one time but have evolved out of existence.

Dear Amanda B,
Thank you for a great review, and so pleased you enjoyed your first experience at Yo Yo's, and we look forward to seeing you and your friends again soon.

Service was welcoming, being able to choose your own seat throughout the weekday. The food was too spicy for my tastes but once informed they gave me mouth cooling refreshments and their jasmine tea was lovely to finish off a lovely meal.
Dear Michael M,
Many thanks for a great review following your recent visit to Yo Yo Bar & Restaurant. Sorry you found the food a little hot! Next time you visit us please ask your food server who will be able to assist in your food selection. The Chinese and Japanese food is not spicy, with Thai being hotter and...
Could fault nothing. My first visit and was very impressed with service and the restaurant itself had a lovely welcoming atmosphere. All my food was cooked to perfection. Will definitely be going back.
Dear Emma LauraO,
Many thanks for such a great review following your first visit to Yo Yo Bar & Restaurant. I am so pleased that you enjoyed your dining experience and will be making a return visit to us again soon.
Please tell you friends about Yo Yo's.
Kind Regards
Simon & Team Yo Yo.
Lovely food, very good service from friendly waitress and waiter.
A good place for a party.
Cocktails were really nice and we were able to enjoy them away from the dining table in a very comfy seating area, or have a pre meal drink.
Dear Jenni 700,
Many thanks for your review, so pleased you enjoyed your dining experience with us. We have tried to create an all in one venue, where you can enjoy pre dinner drinks, then go to the Restaurant for your dinner and then end the evening back in the bar area, and always guaranteed a seat all evening. We...
Special mention for Oliver, what a delight he is, a credit to the restaurant .Food was great had a sharing fish platter then a wonderful coconut sauce dish. loved it . It was a saturday night and very busy but we were served quickly but didnt feel hurried,
Dear Whitewitch Hull,
With a name like that I am sure you are not one ! But many thanks for your great review so pleased you enjoyed your dining experience with us. Oliver is aware of your praise, and as his father am very pleased he has delivered on the service he has been trained to deliver. We hope we...
Fab food and drinks. Staff very friendly. Been a few times and it is always empty for such a big place. People need to use it or lose it. The night i was there with friends i saw the manager/ owner turn some ladies away who had come to use the cocktail bar at just before 10pm. Shame as they...
Dear Claire B,
Thank you for your recent review. I think the weekend you dined with us was an extremely quiet one not only for us for all the restaurants in the area. Whilst I appreciate your concerns as to why a group of ladies were turned away was the fact that we had so few customers that last orders...
Not been before having just moved from Leeds and deciding to try TripAdvisor...my meal at yo yo was, I thought well cooked, seasoned and tasted great. Staff and atmosphere were equally good. My only issue would be, in my opinion it needs some finesse with presentation. Overall, I would go back just for the flavours
Dear Ben 2341,
Many thanks for your review, so pleased you enjoyed your dining experience at Yo Yo's. Presentation is quite subjective and cannot comment on what you ordered when you dined with us, but we are not a fine dining restaurant and do not like to mess around with the food too much. If it was cooked in the...
Been here twice now at the start of a lads night out. Worth the drive from Huddersfield & we'll be back again. I highly recommend 😀
Dear Flashingblade23,
Many thanks for your review, so pleased you enjoyed your dining experience with us on Friday evening. Yes I realise you travelled far to dine with us, but sometimes you need to travel far to get good food, and you have found us now, so we look forward to welcoming you back to Yo Yo's again soon.
Went for a birthday treat with my girlfriend on a Tuesday. Great setting and a brilliant menu. Service was polite, friendly and quick. I would perhaps suggest that some prices are a touch high, for example Prosecco £22 a bottle is steep but not enough so to upset a meal. Worth a visit.
Dear Fredsleeps1,
Many thanks for your great review, so pleased you enjoyed your first dining experience with us. I do take your point that we seem a little on the expensive side, but this is to ensure that we attract the correct clientele into our Bar & Restaurant. This policy has served us well in the 9 years we have...
We came here for cocktails and dessert and we were so impressed. Great service. The place has a nice, relaxed feel and the desserts we had were amazing. I can recommend the Chocolate Scrapheap and the Treacle Pudding. Delicious!
Dear Rozanne M,
Thank you for writing a good review about your Cocktails and Desserts you had with us last night, pity you were in Yorkshire for the one night. If you are ever visiting again soon then we hope you would enjoy a full meal in the Restaurant.

David Beckham retires from soccer
May 16, 2013, 10:24 AM EDT
David Beckham's glittering career as the world's most recognizable soccer player is over.
This morning the 38-year-old Englishman announced his retirement from the game, after winning the French league title with Paris Saint-Germain.
The former Manchester United, Real Madrid, LA Galaxy and PSG player has become not only one of the greatest names in world soccer but also a global icon.
After captaining his country for many years, Beckham also became the first English player to win league titles in four different countries.
Beckham released the following statement, confirming his retirement from the game.
"I'm thankful to PSG for giving me the opportunity to continue but I feel now is the right time to finish my career, playing at the highest level," Beckham said.
"If you had told me as a young boy I would have played for and won trophies with my boyhood club Manchester United, proudly captained and played for my country over one hundred times and lined up for some of the biggest clubs in the world, I would have told you it was a fantasy. I'm fortunate to have realized those dreams."
(PHOTOS: The life and times of David Beckham)
Beckham's time with the English national team was monumental, winning a record 115 caps as an outfield player and he reflected on his success with England.
"To this day, one of my proudest achievements is captaining my country," Beckham said. "I knew every time I wore the Three Lions shirt, I was not only following in a long line of great players, I was also representing every fan that cared passionately about their country."
The former Major League Soccer star then went on to send out one last thanks to those closest to him.
(MORE: Beckham's five biggest moments in U.S. Socccer)
"I'm honored to represent England both on and off the pitch … I want to thank all my team-mates, the great managers that I had the pleasure of learning from. I also want to thank the fans who have all supported me and given me the strength to succeed."
Beckham will retire after Paris Saint-Germain's final game of the French season, when they travel to Lorient on Sunday May 26.
It will be the final game in his storybook career.

Thu / Jul 30
Choose a neighborhood
Known as the historical center of Munich, City Center encompasses Marienplatz, Odeonsplatz, Karlsplatz, Viktualienmarkt, Kaufingerstrasse, and everything around each of these landmarks.
Given the large number of historical sites, the area is usually flooded with snap-happy tourists. Since the neighborhood is also Munich's business center, however, there are plenty of stylish men and women to add to the bustle of the streets.
As night falls and the young professionals leave work and the tourists disappear, the action moves indoors to the bars and cafés where a lively scene featuring lots of Happy Hour specials draws in a sizable afterwork crowd.
From ultra-trendy lounges to laid-back bars and pubs, City Center offers a diverse though slightly pricey scene, perfect for relaxing over cocktails on a weeknight or stopping by for a quick drink before hitting one of the nearby clubs.

Iraq Topics
Democracy Now! has closely followed the U.S.-led attacks and occupation of Iraq over the years.
- 11-11-11 is not a variant of Herman Cain's much-touted 9-9-9 tax plan, but rather the date of this year's Veterans Day. This is especially relevant, as the U.S. has now entered its second decade of war in Afghanistan, the longest war in the nation's history. U.S. veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars are appearing more and more on the front lines—the front lines of the Occupy Wall Street protests, that is.November 02, 2011 | Columns & Articles
- Over the weekend, Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman visited demonstrators at Occupy Louisville, a protest inspired by Occupy Wall Street. They've set up an encampment right across the street from a local jail. We hear from veterans, students, social justice activists, and other community members who spent the night at the protest. [includes rush transcript]October 24, 2011 | Story
- Protesters at Occupy Wall Street include veterans of the U.S. military, many of whom are struggling with their multiple deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, mental and physical trauma and illness, and the hardships of pulling their lives back together when returning to civilian life. "It's no secret that a lot of veterans are facing unemployment, homelessness, and a lot of other issues that are dealing with the economy," says...October 11, 2011 | Story
