Ferguson's new book likely to affect Rooney`s peace process with Man United
London: Former Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson`s new autobiography, 14 years since the last one, is out on 24 October and the club is worried that some of the revelations might blow apart the peace process maintained with striker Wayne Rooney.
According to the Guardian, a few years ago United introduced a new rule that stipulated any player writing a book had to run it by the club first.
Since then, the books emanating from Old Trafford have been tasteless, the report said.
Unfortunately for United, Ferguson likes to go by his own rules and he could be threatening an already delicate situation, the report added.
The book promises to be tremendous and he has certainly appointed a superb writer in Paul Hayward to fall in line with the job Hugh McIlvanney completed in 1999, the report further said.

In Which I Dare Not Even Say The Word
re: GREAT ARTICLE!
From: [email protected]
I stumbled across your blog and noticed the great content you write. Over the last few months I've been researching and writing about (hearing loss, healthy lifestyles, aging, etc) and decided to begin blogging about it. With hunting season right around the corner I thought it would be a great time to highlight and focus on how you can protect your hearing and prevent hearing loss while hunting. I am very passionate about these issues, and since October was National Audiology Awareness Month and National Protect Your Hearing Month, I feel that it is important to continue to spread awareness. I'm wondering if you ever accept guest posts on those topics? If so, I would be happy to send you an article to review. Please let me know what you think, thanks!
We might well be interested. My question is whether you can tailor your article to discuss protecting your hearing not just during ANY hunting, but when hunting the most terrifying and dangerous game of all.
Please advise.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
17 Aug 2011 20:41 GMT | Asia, India
Huge protests have taken place across India in support of a jailed anti-corruption campaigner who has been demanding a tough anti-graft law.
Thousands of protestors turned out on Wednesday after Anna Hazare, a self-styled Gandhian, was arrested a day earlier when he went ahead with his planned protest and hunger strike in the capital, New Delhi.
Hundreds of his supporters, who had planned to join the protest, were also detained. Hazare's arrest sparked spontaneous demonstrations in cities across the country.
Spurred by messages on social networking sites, such as on Twitter and Facebook, at least 15,000 supporters thronged to one protest site in central Delhi alone, a Reuters reporter said.
In northeast Assam state, thousands of farmers, students and lawyers marched. In the financial capital of Mumbai, thousands of people carrying the Indian flag and wearing Gandhi caps chanted "I am Anna".
In the technology hub of Hyderabad, lawyers boycotted courts, students skipped class and hundreds took to the streets.
PM defends arrest
Earlier in the day, Manmohan Singh, the country's prime minister, made a statement in the parliament justifying the government's handling of the situation but opposition parties were left unimpressed.
Singh accused Hazare of being deliberately confrontational and undemocratic over his plans to stage the hunger strike.
Singh said Hazare's intention to fast indefinitely to push for changes to a new anti-corruption bill was a direct challenge to the government's authority.
"The path he has chosen is totally misconceived and fraught with grave consequences for our parliamentary democracy," said Singh as he was repeatedly interrupted by cries of "shame" from the opposition.
"It is a wake-up call for all of us unless we put our house in order. The people of this country are becoming restless," Arun Jaitley, leader of the opposition Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, said.
Hazare, 74, spent the night in jail despite being freed by the government.
A close aide, who had also been arrested, said Hazare was refusing to leave the jail until he obtained government permission to continue his fast in a park in the capital.
Police released about 1,500 of Hazare's followers detained for defying the police order not to protest.
In a pre-taped appeal, Hazare urged his supporters to protest despite his arrest.
The anti-corruption crusader, who has struck a nerve with millions of Indians by demanding tougher laws against rampant corruption, fasted as thousands of his followers gathered outside the jail.
"The government really doesn't know what it is doing," Kuldip Nayar, a veteran political analyst, said. "It is bungling, mishandling. They do not know at all how wide and how deep the resentment is."
Corruption-tainted government
P Chidambaram, India's home minister, said organisers had refused to guarantee to obey police orders that the rally would be limited to 5,000 people and that it would only last three days.
Chidambaram denied the government was quashing dissent and stressed that "this government is not against peaceful protest".
Hazare ended a four-day hunger strike in April after the government set up a committee to draft legislation to create an anti-corruption ombudsman. The committee included Hazare and other non-elected activists.
The legislation was introduced in India's parliament earlier this month but Hazare demanded it be made tougher to include the prime minister and the judiciary in its remit. The current draft of the law does not include them.
Hazare's protest comes as the as federal government battles a series of scandals, including the sale of mobile phone licenses and the hosting of last year's Commonwealth Games, which together lost the country as much as $40bn, according to government auditors.
Many ministers from the current federal government were arrested in the wake of the scams.
The Indian parliament has been paralysed by anti-corruption protests for two weeks, stalling crucial legislation.

U.S. Cites 'Self Defense,' Concedes Poor Coordination In Pakistan Incident
American military forces, "given what information they had available to them at the time, acted in self defense and with appropriate force after being fired upon" when they called for airstrikes along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border in late November in an incident that killed 24 Pakistani soldiers, the Pentagon said this morning.
"Nevertheless," the Defense Department also said in a statement about conclusions reached by its investigating officer, "inadequate coordination by U.S. and Pakistani military officers operating through the border coordination center — including our reliance on incorrect mapping information shared with the Pakistani liaison officer — resulted in a misunderstanding about the true location of Pakistani military units. This, coupled with other gaps in information about the activities and placement of units from both sides, contributed to the tragic result."
The incident damaged already frayed relations between the U.S. and Pakistan, which responded by closing some of its border crossings to U.S. military convoys moving in and out of Afghanistan.
This morning, The New York Times writes of the Pentagon report that:
"Even though it spread blame between both countries, the key finding of the investigation is likely to further enrage Pakistan: that the airstrikes were ultimately justified because Pakistani soldiers fired first on a joint team of Afghan and American special operations forces operating along the often poorly demarcated frontier between Afghanistan and Pakistan. ... Since the airstrikes, Pakistan has steadfastly insisted its forces did nothing wrong, and that they certainly did not fire the first shots."
In its statement, the Pentagon expresses "our deepest regret ... for the loss of life — and for the lack of proper coordination between U.S. and Pakistani forces that contributed to those losses."
"We further express sincere condolences to the Pakistani people, to the Pakistani government, and most importantly to the families of the Pakistani soldiers who were killed or wounded," the statement adds.
Then it goes on to acknowledge there is lack of trust between the U.S. and Pakistani militaries:
"Our focus now is to learn from these mistakes and take whatever corrective measures are required to ensure an incident like this is not repeated. The chain of command will consider any issues of accountability. More critically, we must work to improve the level of trust between our two countries. We cannot operate effectively on the border — or in other parts of our relationship — without addressing the fundamental trust still lacking between us. We earnestly hope the Pakistani military will join us in bridging that gap."

Loving vs. pleasing
Opinion: Columns
By Melissa Ford
What does it mean to really love your child?
Some parents think loving their child means pleasing him or her. I've discovered that pleasing has nothing to do with love and everything to do with fear. All too often (and I've done it, too), parents will please their child to avoid tantrums, withdrawal of love or hearing those stinging messages, "I hate you," "You're mean," or "You don't really love me!"
We've all tried to get along, let things slip, not rock the boat so our kids will love us, like us and want to spend time with us. We buy them things when we don't want to, we break rules, inconsistently enforce limits, or say "Yes" when we know the best response would be "No!"
Of course, we want harmonious relationships with our children, but at what cost?
The best way to love our children is not to please because we're afraid of an unhappy response. Truly loving your child requires setting limits (and following through), establishing rules (and sticking to them), motivating your child to fulfill her responsibilities even when she doesn't want to, and standing strong with love when your son pitches a fit or gives you the icy treatment.
The evidence that you love your child isn't whether your daughter likes you or your son agrees with your decisions. The real evidence is doing the hard part of parenting while continuing to love yourself, and your child, even when you fall out of favor.

There is something to be said about teaching more when they are young. Morals are learned by children by 5 years of age. Children are all different even within the same family. There is something to be said for birth order. Parents are there to love and nurture their little ones not to be their friend. You are their role model and they start out wanting to please you until they develop a mind of their own. Then it will be what you have taught them that guides them in the future.
Posted: February 6th, 2014 3:12 PM
I did say "should." But you're right, not always the case. Back to Ms. Ford's point, sometimes falling out of favor with your child is good for them so stick to your guns. Sometimes falling out of favor with your child is a warning sign that you're doing a horrible job.That was the reason I was questioning her advice.

"Nobody said parenting was easy." Spare me the condescension. I have adult kids who are well-educated and well-employed...fully functional adults. They needed a lot of limit-setting in high school, much more than they needed when they were younger. Your suggestion that kids need fewer limits in adolescence than in earlier years simply isn't always true. We joke now about our clashes when they were in high school, but it was no joke at the time.
Posted: February 6th, 2014 12:32 PM
Nobody said parenting was easy. Rules are important. But as they get older, kids should get better at following rules on their own and need less reminding. They make mistakes, but end up better able to function in the world when they turn 18.

Well, them, my parents sucked, and so do I. Pretty much all of my friends also suck at parenting, as evidenced by the challenges they faced with their kids in high school. You're perfect, but that's gotta be lonely.
Posted: February 6th, 2014 11:47 AM
It depends on how well-adjusted the kids are. And the parents. If you're doing your job as a parent, by high school they should be independent, responsible, and ready for adulthood. I'm calling that most parents suck at parenting though. Tough love only gets you so far. It's always the strict parents who have the crazy, partying kids, right?

To Parent - So, as your kids got older, you had to set fewer limits? I infer, then, that by high school you had to set hardly any limits, and had almost no opposition! That is exactly the opposite of my experience, and, in fact, the experience of the many other parents I know. I'm calling BS on this one.
Posted: February 6th, 2014 7:08 AM
Parents shouldn't live in fear of upsetting their kids. But the relationship shouldn't be totally oppositional. That's not loving either. If parents grow with their children, those moments of having to set limits and fall out of favor are fewer and fewer.

you make a great point. All too often I think we all see parents who live in fear of upsetting their children and the resulting tantrums. this seems to be especially true in two income households where parents don't get to spend as much time with their children as they like. children need boundaries. Boundaries in behavior and just as importantly boundaries in the parent child relationship. It cracks me up when i see parents that act as if they are in an equal partnership with there toddler

Joseph Nye: Do Presidents Really Steer Foreign Policy?
Joseph S. Nye Jr. is a University Distinguished Service Professor at Harvard. This article and the accompanying sidebar are adapted from his upcoming book, Presidential Leadership and the Creation of the American Era.The 21st century began with an extraordinary imbalance in world power. The United States was the only country able to project military force globally; it represented more than a quarter of the world economy, and had the world's leading soft-power resources in its universities and entertainment industry. America's primacy appeared well established.Americans seemed to like this situation. In the 2012 presidential campaign, both major-party candidates insisted that American power was not in decline, and vowed that they would maintain American primacy. But how much are such promises within the ability of presidents to keep? Was presidential leadership ever essential to the establishment of American primacy, or was that primacy an accident of history that would have occurred regardless of who occupied the Oval Office?

We tend to think of Woodrow Wilson, John F. Kennedy or Ronald Reagan as more impressive than Dwight Eisenhower or George H. W. Bush. Leadership theorists often dismiss transactional leaders as mere "managers." But that is a mistake.

The second US drone attack in two days in Pakistan's North Waziristan region killed has killed four people, including a senior militant commander with links to al-Qaeda, Pakistani intelligence officials and Taliban sources said.
Badar Mansoor, leader of a faction of the Pakistani Taliban, was killed on Thursday in the strike in Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan, near the Afghan border.
"He was living in a small rented house with his wife and children in Miranshah. He, his wife and two other members of his family died on the spot," a Pakistani Taliban commander told Reuters. He declined to be identified.
Pakistani officials painted Mansoor as al-Qaeda's chief in Pakistan.
"He died in the missile attacks overnight in Miranshah. His death is a major blow to al-Qaeda's abilities to strike in Pakistan," a senior official told the AFP news agency on condition of anonymity.
Intelligence officials said the death toll could rise because buildings next to the one targeted were also damaged and people could have been there.
On Wednesday, a US drone aircraft fired missiles at a compound in a village near Miranshah, killing 10 suspected fighters, Pakistani officials and villagers said.
The Central Intelligence Agency drone programme was apparently halted after a November NATO cross-border air attack killed 24 Pakistani soldiers, sparking fury in Pakistan.
The attacks with the unmanned aircraft in Pakistan's northwestern ethnic tribal areas along the Afghan border were resumed on January 10.
Several armed groups, including the Afghan Taliban and al-Qaeda, operate in Pakistan's semi-autonomous regions, taking advantage of a porous frontier with Afghanistan to conduct cross-border attacks, or plot violence elsewhere.
North Waziristan is also an important base for the al-Qaeda-linked Haqqani network, an Afghan faction allied with the Taliban, which the United States says is one of its deadliest adversaries in Afghanistan.
While the Haqqanis say they no longer need havens in North Waziristan and stay in Afghanistan, they are known to still maintain a presence in the Pakistani border region.
The use of the remotely piloted aircraft over Pakistan is opposed by most Pakistani politicians and the public, who
consider drone strikes violations of sovereignty with unacceptable civilian casualties.
But despite public opposition, Pakistan appears to have quietly supported the programme, which President Barack Obama ramped up after taking office in 2009.
On January 30, during an online question-and-answer forum sponsored by Google, Obama acknowledged the use of drones to make targeted killings for the first time.
The White House has since declined to discuss whether and why Obama had made such sensitive admissions.

Ghana's mixed fortune as a dumping ground for e-waste
Return to Kuwait: The class of 1990
13 Apr 2009 22:34 GMT
Election win
Lugo resigned as bishop of Paraguay's central San Pedro province in 2004 after administering there for 10 years.
He announced two years later that he was renouncing the status of bishop to run for president.
He won the presidency last April as head of a left-leaning coalition that ended more than 60 years of one-party rule in the poor South American country.
But the Catholic church initially rejected his application for layman's status, changing its mind and relieving him of his vows of chastity only after he won elections last year.
The lawsuit indicated that Lugo and the child's mother met when he was bishop in San Pedro and that he stayed in the house of her godmother.

Sony adds DSC-T77 and DSC-T700 to Cyber-shot range
Sony has introduced two new stylish cameras to its Cyber-shot range, in the form of the DCS-T700 and DCS-T77.
The DSC-T77 is Sony's thinnest model to date, at less than 5/8 of an inch thick. The 10 megapixel camera features a 3-inch touchscreen LCD screen, ISO up to 3,200, eleven scene modes, face detection tecnologies and in-camera image management.
The T700 though, earns extra points as it does everything the T77 does but throws in a slightly larger screen at 3.5 inches and 4GB of internal memory to boot. That's nearly 1,000 full-resolution or 40,000 VGA-quality photos, which certainly ensures it lives up to the "photo album in your pocket" reputation Sony labels it with.
Photos can be searched for in-camera by event, date, smile or face, displayed in calendar or chronological views, organised in
folders; and shared as slide shows or scrapbooks. The Picture Motion Browser software allows you to get more pictures onto your memory by letting you downsize the image to VGA and export it back into the photo album.
Both new cameras feature a newly-developed Carl Zeiss lens that integrates a 4x optical zoom, and also feature image stabilisation, scene recognition technology and an anti-blink function that warns you when someone has closed their eyes.
The two cameras will be available from September with pricing to be announced. The DCS-T77 will be available in brown, green, pink, black and silver, while the DSC-T700 will come in a choice of red, champagne gold, pink, dark grey or silver colours.

Me and my partner went to fuertvntra. We enjoyed staying at Sara Hotel. The only dissappointment was the weather. It was windy most of the time and very cloudy most days. Explored a town call Correjeca and was a lovely resort. More to shop there than Faleta de Luste.
Overall it was a pleasant stay.

Movie Info
Brain Donors is a game attempt to redo the Marx Brothers' A Night at the Opera in a contemporary setting. John Turturro plays the "Groucho" character, a shifty lawyer (he's even given a Grouchoesque three-barrelled moniker). Bob Nelson is the "Harpo" counterpart, a puckish handyman. And Mel Smith completes the trio as a Chico-like cabbie. All three conspire to save a failing ballet company on behalf of dowager Nancy Marchand, who does a film-length impersonation of Margaret Dumont. At times, Pat Proft's script comes off more like a 3 Stooges short than a Marx Brothers romp, but that's not so bad. What hurts the film is its fluctuating pace, which shifts into neutral just when it should go into hyperdrive. Will Vinton's Claymation opening titles supply some of the film's biggest laughs. … More

'Holdover' clause protects agents' hard work
A typical listing agreement will include a "holdover" clause to protect the real estate professional who has put in the time and effort to try and sell a home.

Share via Email
Q: I listed my house with a real estate professional. The agreement will be expiring soon and I'd like to sign with another representative. Is my original representative entitled to commission even if he didn't find the buyer?
A: It's not uncommon for a listing agreement to expire before you and your real estate professional are able to find a buyer for your property. Deciding whether to resign with your current brokerage or try a different one can be difficult.
A typical listing agreement will include a "holdover" clause to protect the interests of the real estate professional who has put in the time and effort to help you sell your home.
Generally, the holdover clause will state that if the property is sold within "X" days of the contract expiry to someone who was introduced to the property during the term of the contract, commission may still be payable to that brokerage. The length of the holdover period is negotiable and will be specified in your listing agreement. Most Buyer Representation Agreements also include a holdover clause.
Seek legal advice if you have any concerns.

It's that time of year again – the holiday season – marred only by the fact that shopping for swimwear rears its ugly head once more.
At this point I can only thank the Lord that internet shopping – not always the most creative or indeed discerning way to buy clothes – exists. How completely brilliant to bypass the experience of gazing in despair at a nearly naked, sun-starved body in a badly lit changing room, most likely blasted by air-conditioning and covered in goose pimples to boot. Why do they do that?
Then there are the sales assistants. In my experience, brutal, on this most sensitive of all shopping occasions, doesn't cover it. One can only assume that given most women's neurosis where exposing their bodies in public is concerned, the harridans that staff the swimwear departments are just over it but do these, our sisters, not have hearts?
So, this might sound profligate, but the trick with buying swimwear online is to buy more than one bikini/one-piece/tankini, depending on your preference, and then return anything you don't want, safe in the knowledge that, unless you have worn the same brand for years, and are pretty sure of your shape and size, you're unlikely to stumble across the perfect fit first time.
Being Probably the Most Boring Woman in the World where this summer staple is concerned, I was looking for a black bikini – a sun-kissed stomach that's seen better days is better than a pale one, to my mind, however challenging that first outing poolside may be. I didn't want an underwire – it has something of the exploding air bag in effect. I didn't want ribbons, bows or frills. I'm not 12 or driven by a subconscious desire to channel the dancing hippos in Fantasia. And I didn't want elaborate hardware, or indeed any hardware. It's bad enough on bags but weighing down a mere sliver of fabric and digging into sensitive places, it's far worse. I was looking, then, for the ultimate minimal bikini. And, lo, I found it.
It's black. It has a single clasp (also black). It has an ample, sporty top, with reassuringly broad straps so there's minimum chance of accidental exposure, and it comes with an optional pair of boy shorts to maintain a modicum of modesty should that be needed.
I have Melissa Odabash to thank for my bikini and, truly, a woman couldn't wish for more.
