The hidden jewel of PEI's tourism crown
During 2003, I vacationed with my family in Prince Edward Island. We stayed in a lovely cottage unit on route 13, within walking range but a comfortable distance from the garish tourist traps of Cavendish.
One morning, I took a walk by myself, leaving the boys to play with their mom at the pool. I was still a few minutes from the noise of the main drag when I noticed a nondescript path that cut across a field and into a grove of trees. There was no sign or gate so I surrendered to curiosity and detoured into something truly magical.
I have always been a sucker for a well-worn path, and this one was a beauty. It must have been more than a century old. It stirred my imagination in ways unexpected, and I paused several times to marvel at how the trees leaned in from each side, like children craning their necks at a parade.
Finally, a modest wooden sign informed me that this was the same path Lucy Maud Montgomery walked every day, more than a century earlier, on her way to school.
The path ended on a meadow ringed by tall poplars, birch and spruce, with a wide hayfield sloping off to my right and down into the valley. To my left was a stone foundation all that remained of Lucy Maud's childhood home surrounded by a stand of mature trees, their leaves whispering in the breeze high overhead. Here were the meadows and paths explored by the famous author; the trees she climbed; the fields she ran in. You could stand underneath' her bedroom window and smell the blossoms, just as she had so long ago. It was the setting that had inspired so much of her stories.
It was, I am sure, one of the most serene places on earth. And it was completely untainted by commercialization, unlike everything else in the town, which was ironic given that this was where Lucy Maud gave birth to the Anne of Green Gables' concept, somewhere around 1905 (the book was published in 1908).
At the other end of the field was a small house, which doubled as a bookstore and museum. After browsing the artifacts, including the typewriter upon which Lucy Maud wrote some of her manuscripts (the early ones where in her own handwriting), I purchased Anne of Green Gables, the book that started it all. I read half of it that first afternoon, becoming so captivated that I returned to the bookstore and bought all remaining books in the series. (The stories are better written than you might expect, and all the strong characters are female whereas the males are just window dressing. Lucy Maud was definitely a feminist and perhaps a little ahead of her time.)
I eased into a conversation with the shopkeeper, a pleasant elderly lady who was a descendant of Lucy Maud's extended family. When I told her I was a writer, she said, Oh, then you will have to walk on the path of rejection.' This, I learned, was another time worn path that led from the homestead out to the main road, where the post office was located. In her early days, Lucy Maud walked this path many times, clutching letters from publishers that, alas, contained letters of rejection hence the name of the path. It felt so much like I was walking in Lucy Maud's world that, at times, I worried I might be invading her privacy.
I took all of these photos on that old homestead, hoping to catch even a hint of the inspiration that surrounded me. If you are a writer and ever find yourself in Cavendish, be sure to visit this spot. But do as I did take the back entrance, off Route 13. You will be enchanted.

What precisely groups a beer as an 'ale'
With the advancements and discoveries that man gradually created over the time he also learned to domesticate barley. He located that when he mixes barley with water and wild yeast and it's going to ferment and generate crude beer.
Ale is formed when the barley is fermented at greater temperatures generally 65 to 70 degrees degrees Fahrenheit. Yeast that's fermented at the top of the wort (unfermented liquid) is called ale yeasts. The temperature is perfect for the ale yeast to ferment which produces alcohol as a byproduct. The procedure produces fruit tasting esters which impart the flavor to the ale. Each and every sort of ale has their own exclusive flavor which has created them such a hit using the public over such a long period of time.
The yeast also imparts a definite aroma which integrates using the taste to impart the flavor to give the ale its distinction. Therefore ales have fruity flavors with lingering aromas and are normally far more complex to taste. The alcohol content is reasonably low ranging from two.5 to 6 percent. You will find distinct varieties of Ale especially with regards to the taste. It may be sweet and nutty or even sour and musty. Here in this post we make a list of some diverse varieties of ales which have been one of the most popular ones over the years:
? Pale beer is one of the most well-liked ones. They're typically a hit with sea food, beef, cheese and so on. the taste ranges from mild to bitter but are a type of dry beer having a defined hop taste.
? If you might be seeking slightly sweeter beer, then porter may be the very best selection. It's heavily malted and tastes from sweet to mild. Great to have with shellfish.
? Bitter ale is exceptionally bitter to taste and is actually a type of beer from Britain. The alcohol content ranges between 3 to 7 % however it is more typically than not around the five % percent.
? Blond and golden ales are another variant of the pale ale. This is closer to the lagers as they're slightly smooth to taste.
? The brown ale is brown in color or it might be slightly darker. It really is lower on the alcohol content and goes the best with spicy food.
Which is a little beer information for you and will hopefully allow you to decide on your next beverage choice! For much more beer information and enjoyable, have a look at BeerGuysTV.com!

Ex-Gay Group Warns: Change Or Die
Jim Burroway
December 6th, 2011
It has been reported recently that Exodus International president Alan Chambers is trying to save his organization from financial ruin by rebranding itself with some sort of a softer, kinder image. An Exodus member ministry in Bakersfield, California, however appears to have taken the opposite tack. Pastor Phillip Lee, executive director of His Way Out Ministries at Chester Avenue Community Church penned an op-ed in Sunday's Bakersfield Californian that looks like it came straight out of 1985. The upshot is this: everyone has a choice to either become straight or die of AIDS:
While AIDS is not solely a homosexual disease, the disease was confined almost exclusively to homosexuals in the beginning years of the epidemic in the United States. I personally witnessed this horrific tragedy unfold while living in San Francisco, having several personal friends die of AIDS at the beginning stages of what is now a pandemic. Tragically, the reality and threat of AIDS has not stopped men from engaging in unprotected sex and the continued risk-taking by many does not appear to result from a lack of awareness.
There is, therefore, little to no evidence that homosexual practice can be anything other than a severe threat to the sanctity of life. That said, all efforts should and must continue to better understand and find a cure for AIDS and AIDS-related diseases. However, if the sexual behavior that is fundamental to most homosexual practice constitutes the primary means of transmitting such disease, then it only makes sense for society to do all it can to decrease such behavior, which ultimately protects the sanctity of life.
I guess gay and bisexual women are off the hook. But what Lee fails to understand is that AIDS is the result of unprotected sex — whether that sex is gay or straight. It is not the product of being gay. If it were, AIDS wouldn't be a predominantly heterosexual disease worldwide. But there's no sense in grounding an ex-gay message in reality when the entire ex-gay movement is predicated on training people to ignore their own reality and embark on an lifelong struggle to try to achieve what does not come naturally to them. Stigmatizing people with AIDS is no small thing for people who have still have to deal with routine ignorance, but as far as Exodus-affiliated His Way Out Ministries is concerned, that stigma is just another tool in its toolbox.
This tactic is beyond merely deplorable. It is an outrageous throwback to the hysteria of twenty years ago. If Chambers really wants to rebrand his organization's image, he really has his work cut out for him among his own affiliates.

This symbol is used to indicate information that can result in personal injury or material damage if ignored.
After removing the battery from the calculator, put it in a safe place where it will not get into the hands of small children and accidentally swallowed. Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If accidentally swallowed, consult with a physician immediately. Never charge the battery, try to take the battery apart, or allow the battery to become shorted. Never expose the battery to direct heat or dispose of it by incineration. Improperly using a battery can cause it to leak and damage nearby items, and can create the risk of fire and personal injury. Always make sure that the batterys positive k and negative l ends are facing correctly when you load it into the calculator. Remove the battery if you do not plan to use the calculator for a long time. Use only the type of battery specified for this calculator in this manual.
Disposing of the Calculator
Never dispose of the calculator by burning it. Doing so can cause certain components to suddenly burst, creating the risk of fire and personal injury.
Handling Precautions
Be sure to press the O key before using the calculator for the first time. Even if the calculator is operating normally, replace the battery at least once every two years. A dead battery can leak, causing damage to and malfunction of the calculator. Never leave a dead battery in the calculator. The battery that comes with this unit discharges slightly during shipment and storage. Because of this, it may require replacement sooner than the normal expected battery life. Low battery power can cause memory contents to become corrupted or lost completely. Always keep written records of all important data. Avoid use and storage of the calculator in areas subjected to temperature extremes. Very low temperatures can cause slow display response, total failure of the display, and shortening of battery life. Also avoid leaving the calculator in direct sunlight, near a window, near a heater or anywhere else it might be exposed to very high temperatures. Heat can cause discoloration or deformation of the calculators case, and damage to internal circuitry. Avoid use and storage of the calculator in areas subjected to large amounts of humidity and dust.

k Turning Power On and Off
Press O to turn on the calculator. Press 1A(OFF) to turn off the calculator.
k Adjusting Display Contrast
1N(SETUP)c6(]CONT') This displays the contrast adjustment screen. Use d and e to adjust display contrast. After the setting is the way you want, press A.
You can also adjust contrast using d and e while the mode menu (which appears when you press N) is on the display.
If adjusting display contrast does not improve display readability, it probably means that battery power is low. Replace the battery.
k About the Display
Your calculator has a 31-dot 96-dot LCD screen. Example:
Input expression Calculation result
k Display Indicators
Sample Display: This indicator:
Means this: The keypad has been shifted by pressing the 1 key. The keypad will unshift and this indicator will disappear when you press a key. The alpha input mode has been entered by pressing the S key. The alpha input mode will be exited and this indicator will disappear when you press a key. There is a value stored in independent memory. The calculator is standing by for input of a variable name to assign a value to the variable. This indicator appears after you press 1t(STO). The calculator is standing by for input of a variable name to recall the variables value. This indicator appears after you press t. The calculator is in the STAT Mode. The default angle unit is degrees. The default angle unit is radians. The default angle unit is grads. A fixed number of decimal places is in effect. A fixed number of significant digits is in effect. Math style is selected as the input/output format. Calculation history memory data is available and can be replayed, or there is more data above/below the current screen. The display currently shows an intermediate result of a multi-statement calculation.
RCL STAT 9 FIX SCI Math $`
For a very complex calculation or some other type of calculation that takes a long time to execute, the display may show only the above indicators (without any value) while it performs the calculation internally.
Final Closed Parenthesis
You can omit one or more closed parentheses that come at the end of a calculation, immediately before the = key is pressed. For details, see Omitting a Final Closed Parenthesis.
Displaying a Long Expression
The display can show up to 14 characters at a time. Inputting the 15th character causes the expression to shift to the left. At this time, the ] indicator appears to the left of the expression, indicating that it runs off the left side of the screen. Input expression: 1111 + 2222 + 3333 + 444
Displayed portion:
When the ] indicator is displayed, you can scroll left and view the hidden part by pressing the d key. This will cause the ' indicator to appear to the right of the expression. At this time, you can use the e key to scroll back.
Number of Input Characters (Bytes)
You can input up to 99 bytes of data for a single expression. Basically, each key operation uses up one byte. A function that requires two key operations to input (like 1s(sin1)) also uses only one byte. Note, however, that when you are inputting functions with Math format, each item you input uses up more than one byte. For more information, see Inputting with Math Format.
Normally the input cursor appears as a straight vertical (I) or horizontal ( ) flashing line on the display screen. When there are 10 or fewer bytes of input remaining in the current expression, the cursor changes shape to I to let you know. If the I cursor appears, terminate the expression at a convenient point and calculate the result.
k Correcting an Expression
This section explains how to correct an expression as you are inputting it. The procedure you should use depends on whether you have insert or overwrite selected as the input mode.
About the Insert and Overwrite Input Modes
With the insert mode, the displayed characters shift to the left to make room when you input a new character. With the overwrite mode, any new character you input replaces the character at the current cursor position. The initial default input mode is insert. You can change to the overwrite mode when you need it. The cursor is a vertical flashing line (I) when the insert mode is selected. The cursor is a horizontal flashing line ( ) when the overwrite mode is selected. The initial default for Linear format input is the insert mode. You can switch to the overwrite mode by pressing 1Y(INS). With Math format, you can only use the insert mode. Pressing 1Y(INS) when the Math format is selected does not switch to the overwrite mode. See Incorporating a Value into a Function for more information. The calculator automatically changes to the insert mode whenever you change the input/output format from Linear to Math.
Changing the Character or Function You Just Input
Example: To correct the expression so it becomes LINE 369*13 Y 2
Deleting a Character or Function
Example: To correct the expression 369 12 so it becomes LINE Insert Mode: 369**12 dd Y Overwrite Mode: 369**12
Correcting a Calculation
Example: To correct cos(60) so it becomes sin(60) LINE Insert Mode: c60) dddY s Overwrite Mode: c60) dddd s
Inserting Input into a Calculation
Always use the insert mode for this operation. Use d or e to move the cursor to the location where you want to insert new input, and then input what you want.
k Displaying the Location of an Error
If an error message (like Math ERROR or Syntax ERROR) appears when you press =, press d or e. This will display the part of the calculation where the error occurred, with the cursor positioned at the error location. You can then make necessary corrections. Example: When you input 2 = by mistake instead of 2 = Use the insert mode for the following operation. LINE 14/0*2=
Press e or d.
This is causing the error.
You can also exit the error screen by pressing A, which clears the calculation.
k Inputting with Math Format
When inputting with Math format, you can input and display fractions and some functions using the same format as they appear in your textbook.
Certain types of expressions can cause the height of a calculation formula to be greater than one display line. The maximum allowable height of a calculation formula is two display screens (31 dots 2). Further input will become impossible if the height of the calculation you are inputting exceeds the allowable limit. Nesting of functions and parentheses is allowed. Further input will become impossible if you nest too many functions and/or parentheses. If this happens, divide the calculation into multiple parts and calculate each part separately.
Functions and Symbols Supported for Math Format Input
The Bytes column shows the number of bytes of memory that are used up by input. Function/Symbol Improper Fraction Mixed Fraction log(a,b) (Logarithm) 10^x (Power of 10) e^x (Power of e) Square Root Cube Root Square, Cube Reciprocal Power Power Root Absolute Value Parentheses Key Operation ' 1'(() & 1l($) 1i(%) ! 1!(#) w, W E 6 16(") D ( or ) Bytes 1
Math Format Input Examples
The following operations are all performed while Math format is selected. Pay close attention to the location and size of the cursor on the display when you input using Math format. Example 1: To input 23 + 1 MATH
e+1 Example 2: To input 1 + ' + MATH
Example 3: To input (1 + 2 )= 5 MATH (1+'2c5e) w*2=
When you press = and obtain a calculation result using Math format, part of the expression you input can be cut off as shown in the Example 3 screen shot. If you need to view the entire input expression again, press A and then press e.
Incorporating a Value into a Function
x < x < 20 x < 10000
Calculation results may be displayed in decimal form for input values outside of the above ranges.
k ' Form Calculation Range
Results that include square root symbols can have up to two terms (an integer term is also counted as a term). ' form calculation results use display formats like those shown below.
b e a', d a', a' d' b b c f
The following shows the range for each of the coefficients (a, b, c, d,
e, f ).
1 < a < 100, 1 < b < 1000, 1 < c < < d < 100, 0 < e < 1000, 1 < f < 100
2' 4 = 8' 35' 3 = 148.(= 105' 2) 150' 2 = 8.2 (3 2' ) = 6 4' 23 (5 2' ) = 35.(= 115 46' ) 3 10' + 15 3' = 45' + 10' 15 (10' + 3' ) = 290.3 (= 45' + 150' ) ' + ' + ' = ' + 3' 2 ' + ' + ' = 5.3 6
' form decimal form
' form decimal form ' form decimal form ' form decimal form
The underlined areas in the above examples indicate what caused decimal form to be used. Reasons why the results of the examples are displayed in decimal form - Value outside of the allowable range - More than two terms in the calculation result Calculation results displayed in ' form are reduced to a common denominator.
a' + d' a' + d' b e b e c f c
c is the least common multiple of c and f. Since calculation results are reduced to a common denominator, they are displayed in ' form even if coefficients (a, c, and d) are outside the corresponding ranges of coefficients (a, c, and d). ' ' 10' + 11' + = Example: 110 The result is displayed in decimal form even when any intermediate result has three or more terms. Example: (1 + ' + ' )(1 ' ' )(= 4 2' ) 6 = 8.898979486 If a term is encountered during the calculation cannot be displayed as a root (') form or a fraction, the calculation result is displayed in decimal form. Example: log3 + ' = 1.891334817 2
Basic Calculations
This section explains how to perform arithmetic, fraction, percent, and sexagesimal calculations. All calculations in this section are performed in the COMP Mode (N1).
k Arithmetic Calculations
Use the +, -, *, and / keys to perform arithmetic calculations. Example: = 36 LINE 7*8-4*5=
The calculator automatically judges the calculation priority sequence. For more information, see Calculation Priority Sequence.
Number of Decimal Places and Number of Significant Digits
You can specify a fixed number of decimal places and significant digits for the calculation result. Example: = LINE Initial default setting (Norm1)
3 decimal places (Fix3)
3 significant digits (Sci3) For more information, see Specifying the Number of Display Digits.
Omitting a Final Closed Parenthesis
You can omit any closed parenthesis ( ) ) immediately preceding operation of the = key at the end of a calculation. This is true only in the case of Linear format. Example: (2 + 3) (4 1) = 15 LINE (2+3)* (4-1=
k Fraction Calculations
How you should input fractions depends on the input/output format that is currently selected. Improper Fraction Mixed Fraction
Denominator Numerator
Numerator Denominator Integer Part (7'3)
Under initial default settings, fractions are displayed as improper fractions. Fraction calculation results are always reduced before being displayed. Appendix 7 <#001> + = <#002> 3 + 1 = 4 (Fraction Display Format: ab/c) 3 = (Fraction Display Format: ab/c) If the total number of digits used for a mixed fraction (including integer, numerator, denominator, and separator symbols) is greater than 10, the value is automatically displayed in decimal format. The result of a calculation that involves both fraction and decimal values is displayed in decimal format.
Switching between Improper Fraction and Mixed Fraction Format b d Pressing the 1f( a ) key toggles the display fraction c c
between mixed fraction and improper fraction format.
Switching between Fraction and Decimal Format f
The format of the fraction depends on the currently selected fraction display format setting (improper fraction or mixed fraction). You cannot switch from decimal format to mixed fraction format if the total number of digits used in the mixed fraction (including integer, numerator, denominator, and separator symbols) is greater than 10. For details about the f key, see Using S-D Transformation.
k Percent Calculations
Inputting a value and pressing 1((%) causes the input value to become a percent. Appendix 2 () <#004> 150 20% = 30 (150 ) 100 <#003> 2% = 0.02 <#005> <#006> <#007> <#008> <#009> Calculate what percentage of 880 is 660. (75%) Increase 2500 by 15%. (2875) Discount 3500 by 25%. (2625) Discount the sum of 168, 98, and 734 by 20%. (800) If 300 grams are added to a test sample originally weighing 500 grams, what is the percentage increase in weight? (160%) <#010> What is the percentage change when a value is increased from 40 to 46? How about to 48? (15%, 20%)
k Degree, Minute, Second (Sexagesimal) Calculations
You can perform calculations using sexagesimal values, and convert values between sexagesimal and decimal.
Inputting Sexagesimal Values
The following is the syntax for inputting a sexagesimal value. {Degrees}e{Minutes}e{Seconds}e Appendix <#011> Input 2030.

Coordinate conversion can be performed in the COMP and STAT calculation modes. Converting to Polar Coordinates (Pol) Pol(X, Y) X: Specifies the rectangular coordinate X value Y: Specifies the rectangular coordinate Y value Calculation result is displayed in the range of 180 < < 180. Calculation result is displayed using the calculators default angle unit. Calculation result r is assigned to variable X, while is assigned to Y. Converting to Rectangular Coordinates (Rec) Rec(r,) r : Specifies r value of polar coordinate : Specifies value of polar coordinate Input value is treated as an angle value, in accordance with the calculators default angle unit setting. Calculation result x is assigned to variable X, while y is assigned to Y. If you perform coordinate conversion inside of an expression instead of a stand-alone operation, the calculation is performed using only the first value (either the r-value or the X-value) produced by the conversion. Example: Pol (' ' + 5 = 2 + 5 = 7 2, 2) Appendix <#029> to <#030>
k Other Functions
This section explains how to use the functions shown below. !, Abs(, Ran#, nPr, nCr, Rnd(
Factorial (!)
This function obtains the factorials of a value that is zero or a positive integer. Appendix <#031> (5 + 3)! = 40320
Absolute Value Calculation (Abs)
When you are performing a real number calculation, this function simply obtains the absolute value. Appendix <#032> Abs (2 7) = 5
Random Number (Ran#)
This function generates a 3-digit pseudo random number that is less than 1. Appendix <#033> Generate three 3-digit random numbers. The random 3 digit decimal values are converted to 3-digit integer values by multiplying by 1000. Note that the values shown here are examples only. Values actually generated by your calculator will be different.
STAT Editor Screen Input Precautions
The number of lines in STAT editor screen (the number of sample data values you can input) depends on the type of statistical data you selected, and on the Statistical Display setting of the calculators setup screen.
Statistical Display Statistic Type Single-variable Paired-variable
OFF (No FREQ column) 80 lines 40 lines
ON (FREQ column) 40 lines 26 lines
The following types of input are not allowed on the STAT editor screen. m, 1m(M) operations Assignment to variables (STO)
Precautions Concerning Sample Data Storage
Sample data you input is deleted automatically whenever you change to another mode from the STAT Mode or change the Statistical Display setting (which causes the FREQ column to be shown or hidden) on the calculators setup screen.
Editing Sample Data
Replacing the Data in a Cell (1) On the STAT editor screen, move the cursor to the cell you want to edit. (2) Input the new data value or expression, and then press =.
Note that you must totally replace the existing data of the cell with new input. You cannot edit parts of the existing data. Deleting a Line (1) On the STAT editor screen, move the cursor to the line you want to delete. (2) Press Y.
Inserting a Line (1) On the STAT editor screen, move the cursor to the line that will be under the line you will insert. (2) Press 11(STAT)3(Edit). (3) Press 1(Ins).
Note that the insert operation will not work if the maximum number of lines allowed for the STAT editor screen are already used. Deleting All STAT Editor Contents (1) Press 11(STAT)3(Edit). (2) Press 2(Del-A). This clears all of the sample data on the STAT editor screen.
Note that you can perform the procedures under Inserting a Line and Deleting All STAT Editor Contents only when the STAT editor screen is on the display.
k STAT Calculation Screen
The STAT calculation screen is for performing statistical calculations with the data you input with the STAT editor screen. Pressing the A key while the STAT editor screen is displayed switches to the STAT calculation screen. The STAT calculation screen also uses Linear format, regardless of the current input/output format setting on the calculators setup screen.
k Using the STAT Menu
While the STAT editor screen or STAT calculation screen is on the display, press 11(STAT) to display the STAT menu. The content to the STAT menu depends on whether the currently selected statistical operation type uses a single variable or paired variables.
STAT Menu Items
Common Items Select this menu item: 1Type 2Data 3Edit 4Sum 5Var 6MinMax When you want to do this: Display the statistical calculation type selection screen Display the STAT editor screen Display the Edit sub-menu for editing STAT editor screen contents Display the Sum sub-menu of commands for calculating sums Display the Var sub-menu of commands for calculating the mean, standard deviation, etc. Display the MinMax sub-menu of commands for obtaining maximum and minimum values

All calculations in this section are performed in the TABLE Mode (N4).
k Configuring a Number Table Generation Function
The procedure below configures the number table generation function with the following settings. 1 Function: f(x) = x2 + 2 Start Value: 1, End Value: 5, Step Value: 1 LINE (1) Press N4(TABLE).
(2) Input the function.
(3) After making sure the function is the way you want, press =. This displays the start value input screen.
Indicates the initial default start value of 1.
If the initial value is not 1, press 1 to specify the initial start value for this example. (4) After specifying the start value, press =. This displays the end value input screen.
Indicates the initial default end value of 5.
Specify the end value. (5) After specifying the end value, press =. This displays the step value input screen.
Indicates the initial default step value of 1.
Specify the step value. For details about specifying the start, end, and step values, see Start, End, and Step Value Rules. (6) After specifying the step value, press =.
Pressing the A key returns to the function editor screen.
k Supported Function Types
Except for the X variable, other variables (A, B, C, D, Y) and independent memory (M) are all treated as values (the current variable assigned to the variable or stored in independent memory). Only variable X can be used as the variable of a function. The coordinate conversion (Pol, Rec) functions cannot be used for a number table generation function. Note that the number table generation operation causes the contents of variable X to be changed.
k Start, End, and Step Value Rules
Linear format is always used for value input. You can specify either values or calculation expressions (which must produce a numeric result) for Start, End, and Step. Specifying an End value that is less than the Start value causes an error, so the number table is not generated. The specified Start, End, and Step values should produce a maximum of 30 x-values for the number table being generated. Executing a number generation table using a Start, End, and Step value combination that produces more than 30 x-values causes an error.
Certain functions and Start, End, Step value combinations can cause number table generation to take a long time.
k Number Table Screen
The number table screen shows x-values calculated using the specified Start, End, and Step values, as well as the values obtained when each x-value is substituted in the function f(x). Note that you can use the number table screen for viewing values only. Table contents cannot be edited. Pressing the A key returns to the function editor screen.
k TABLE Mode Precautions
Note that changing the input/output format settings (Math format or Linear format) on the calculators setup screen while in the TABLE Mode clears the number table generation function.
Technical Information
k Calculation Priority Sequence
The calculator performs calculations according to a calculation priority sequence. Basically, calculations are performed from left to right. Expressions within parentheses have the highest priority. The following shows the priority sequence for each individual command. 1. Function with parentheses: Pol(, Rec( sin(, cos(, tan(, sin1(, cos1(, tan1(, sinh(, cosh(, tanh(, sinh1(, cosh1(, tanh1( log(, ln(, e^(, 10^(, '(, 3'( Abs( Rnd( 2. Functions preceded by values, powers, power roots: x2, x3, x1, x!, , , r, g, ^(, x'( Percent % 3. Fractions: a b/c
4. 5. 6. 7.
Prefix symbol: () (negative sign) Statistical estimated value calculation: m, n, m1, m2 Permutations, combinations: nPr, nCr Multiplication and division: , Multiplication where sign is omitted: Multiplication sign omitted immediately before , e, variables (2, 5A, A, etc.), functions with parentheses (2'(3), Asin(30), etc.) 8. Addition and subtraction: +,
If a calculation contains a negative value, you may need to enclose the negative value in parentheses. If you want to square the value 2, for example, you need to input: (2)2. This is because x2 is a function preceded by a value (Priority 2, above), whose priority is greater than the negative sign, which is a prefix symbol (Priority 4). Example: y2w= (y2)w= 22 = 4 (2)2 = 4
Multiplication and division, and multiplication where the sign is omitted are the same priority (Priority 7), so these operations are performed from left to right when both types are mixed in the same calculation. Enclosing an operation within parentheses causes it to be performed first, so the use of parentheses can result in different calculation results. Example: 1/215()= 1/(215())= = 1.(2) = 0.1591549431
Removing the battery from the calculator causes independent memory contents and values assigned to variables to be cleared. 1 Press 1A(OFF) to turn off the calculator. 2 On the back of the calculator, remove the screws and the back cover. 3 Remove the old battery. 4 Load a new battery into the calculator with its positive k and negative l ends facing correctly. 5 Replace the back cover and secure it in place with its screws. 6 Perform the following key operation: O19(CLR)3(All)=(Yes). Make sure you perform the above key operation. Do not skip it. Screw Screw
Auto Power Off
Your calculator will turn off automatically if you do not perform any operation for about six minutes. If this happens, press the O key to turn the calculator back on.

Mineral dealers in Rukwa Region have been urged to process the product locally in order to increase value and expand employment opportunities among the youths.
The call was made by the Regional Commissioner Eng.Stella Manyanya who noted that the region has abundant minerals which are yet to benefit its people particularly small scale miners because most of them are exported in raw form.
"Doors are open to investors and we want to process minerals here in order to add value to them and increase employment opportunities for our people," she said.
According to her the region is rich in mineral deposits and was looking for more investors in the sector.
The region has prepared long term strategies which would see more investors in various economic areas, she said, adding that last year's Lake Tanganyika Investors Forum has yielded fruits, whereby some business people have shown interests to invest in the region.
The Rukwa region has great economic potential and if utilised properly, can transform people's lives from abject poverty by exploiting the investment opportunities.
Eng Manyanya said other sectors of economy which needed to be marketed to investors include agriculture, infrastructure, tourism, fishing, transport and Kalambo waterfalls which is the second largest in Africa.
According to her the region is strategically, bordering Zambia, Burundi and DR Congo spewing a vibrant cross border trade which has benefitted the people in the area.
The government through its various institutions and agencies has taken different measures to ensure that there would be a conducive investment climate in the country.
They include provision of reliable power supply, infrastructure, hotels and the hospitality industry.
Opening the Lake Tanganyika investors forum late last year, President Jakaya Kikwete said the government was committed to push for countrywide investment promotion to enable more Tanzanians benefit.
"It is my desire to see investments spread all over the country and not concentrated in a few lucky places. Since the fourth phase government came into power in 2005, more emphasis and efforts have been directed towards promoting development and growth of investments in Tanzania.

The internet is a great resource for many things. Today you can re-engage with friends youfve lost track of, participate in professional communities, and search through a seemingly endless sea of information; some of which is actually good! You can also better yourself with internet coaching.
Like traditional coaching, internet coaching can provide customized training and counseling for any number of issues and interests. Having this kind of personalized service and support online can really help focus your efforts and attack any problem specifically from your own personal vantage point; much like you would find with a personal trainer or therapist in the physical world.
Considering becoming an internet counselor? This is something that a growing number of people in the counseling profession have explored. Most explore it briefly, as a curiosity. Others, find themselves intent on making the change from traditional counselor to internet counselor.
So how does one become a respected and sought out internet counselor? First it is important that you are qualified to be conducting counseling sessions. This article assumes that if you are reading this you either are already qualified or intend on becoming qualified.
The next step grows out of the question "Why would someone see you as an internet counselor rather than someone in person who is nearby?". Of course there are going to be a certain number of people who seek out internet counseling because they simply do not want to, or cannot, go to a physical office. However, what about the others who would see someone locally if there was a counselor that could help them. The key here is filling a very specific area of counseling needs that not all counselors can readily. That is right, pick a very narrow area for treatment. In doing this you open your potential clientele to people who need something specific. This is like selling a sugar free, diary free, nut free frozen desert that is tasty online versus selling ice cream locally. There will be people who cannot eat regular ice cream and you are the only one who can meet their desert needs.

Plank Cooking
Hi Dee,
The planks are usually used for grilling but could be used in a smoker. However, you'll have better more consistent results using chunks or chips for your smoke.
Planks could certainly withstand the temps, but I don't know that will really gain much by using them. Expensive and a lot of work compared with just low and slow smoking.

Cooking on Planks
If i'm cooking in a propane smoker or on a propane grill, can i use the planks? if so, how long can they be used? I need to smoke St. Louis ribs for 4 hours @ 220 degree can the planks be used? Most of all, when i smoke my pig for 8 hours @ 220/225 degree, will the planks withstand it? If so, at what size or thickeness would you recommend, and would it need more soaking time for the length of the cooking time. Your input would be highly appreciated.

wood planks
I have really enjoyed some of your other articles like the smoker comparisons but the wood plank test just doesn't have any detail. The only info that I received was that opinions varied. What were the opinions. Did some woods give a mild, medium or heavy flavor? Why did some think the wood went well with the beef? Did you season the meats at all? Did you sear the steaks before smoking on the wood? What temperatures did you use? In general I have to encourage you to continue the writing because their is just so little useful test info available. Thanks....Dave

Cleaning Planks
Clean with pure clean water. Do not use soap, as it will be absorbed by the wood and later imparted to the food.
After cleaning, let dry and you're ready for the next cook.
Be sure and oil them prior to cooking.

Thank you
Thank you for sharing the test results. I, too, was wondering how many uses one could expect from a plank, and the favorites included woods I might not have expected.

Hi so I'm sorta new to the world of fish. I've had a 5 gallon tank for a few months with great success. Over the weekend I upgraded to a 36 gallon tank. Still testing my ability to take care of a tank this big so I'm sticking with Tetras and a Guppy. I'd love any tip and pointers and if anyone wants to add me feel free. Meeting people who know about fish is why I'm here. :D
Here is a picture of my tank, it's taken from my phone since I haven't set up my camera on my laptop yet.
I guess I'll list my fish while I'm here. I have 7 neon guppies, my wife named them after the 7 dwarfs. 2 X-ray Tetras named Alan and Elc. 2 Raphael Catfish named Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homen-Christo. 1 Guppy named Milkshake. And a Pleco named Sharptooth. Oh and a Ghost Shrimp named Jacques.
Hello and welcome to TFK
Hello and welcome to the forum :wave: I love the fish names - quite creative.
hello and welcome. :-D

There aren't many products out there good enough to impress our esteemed editor Riyad. But when iRiver launched its first D-Click-based MP3 player back in 2007, he was bowled over. The device's fabulous screen and innovative control system made it one of the most compact, full featured mini-PMP on the market and Riyad was a big fan. Well now, iRiver has come up with the follow up to the Clix 2 - it's not the Clix 3, or any other kind of replacement, but a smaller player that expands the range - the Lplayer.
The Lplayer comes in two different capacities - 4GB and 8GB - and both have the same effective navigation system as the Clix 2. Instead of a separate control cluster, the Lplayer's screen doubles up as a four-way directional pad. You can click on the left, right, top and bottom edges of the screen to control the Lplayer's various functions. The controls aren't static either - they're all context-sensitive, so in different modes the controls do different things.
It takes a little getting used to, but after a while, you'll be flicking around without a moment's pause for thought. The only buttons on the Lplayer, as with the Clix 2, are around the edges of the player and these are used to adjust the volume and turn it on and off. There is a hold switch on the rear, too - essential with a control system such as this, as the screen is easy to activate by accident in a pocket.
The big difference between the Lplayer and the Clix 2 is its size - at 60 x 43 x 13mm, this player is much smaller than the Clix 2 and, as a result, much more pocketable. But that ingenious control system means that screen size isn't compromised too much. In fact, though the Lplayer has a considerably smaller footprint than rival players such as Apple's iPod nano, Creative's Zen and Sandisk's Sansa Fuze, its screen is still just as big or bigger at 2in, and it's all down to the fact that the D-Click system means there's no need for a space-hungry control pad. The only thing about the Lplayer's design that counts against it is its 13mm thickness - it's no match for the nano, Zen or Fuze on that front.

Arsenal are winning the race to sign Gonzalo Higuain after his brother/agent revealed that Juventus are unable to afford the Argentine striker now that they've sealed a deal for Manchester City's Carlos Tevez.
The Gunners are thought to have lodged a club-record £22 million bid for the Real Madrid hitman and are also prepared to give the 25-year-old a hefty increase on his pay packet at the Bernabeu.
While Serie A champions Juve were very keen on Higuian it would appear that the deal for Tevez, coupled with the arrival of Fernando Llorente on a free from Atletico Bilbao, means their interest has cooled. Assuming no other club comes in with a late bid it leaves the road clear for Arsene Wenger to complete his first big-name signing of the summer.
Speaking to Tutto Mercato Web, brother Nicolas Higuain revealed: "Now that Tevez is signing for Juve, does that mean Higuain is closer to Arsenal? I think so.
"Juventus is a great club, but Gonzalo is too expensive for them. Napoli? They're a strong team and a club that means a lot to Argentines.
"Having said that, I can't deny that Gonzalo is now close to Arsenal."
Presumably the noise about a possible deal with Napoli, former club of Diego Maradona, is down to suggestions new boss Rafa Benitez may be forced to sell top striker Edinson Cavani should Chelsea and Manchester City be willing to meet his buyout clause.
Arseblog News continues to urge caution, but we're now quietly optimistic that Gonzo could well be a Gooner sooner rather than later.
To use a football analogy it feels like we've scored a late winner and now all we've got to do is play keep ball by the corner flag until the final whistle…naturally you all being Arsenal fans you'll be aware that means it's far from being over.
If Eboue ruins this deal by doing something stupid….oh I have taken your analogy too far.

Think Higuain to Arsenal is almost a done deal but then i don't know what you people think about the Tevez deal which i think it will be a bargain for Juventus…..Higuan for 22M and Tevez for 7M?……Knew which one i will go for.

Higuain right? You'd go for Higuain. Say Higuain.
I would never want that overrated arse-raptor Tevez in a red and white shirt. Juventus are really welcome to him. I wouldn't take a troublemaker like him for free.
85 0
Agree with all of that. After the grief we've had with players agitating for moves, it would be asking for it to sign Tevez.
Also, if you could post "arse-raptor" as a stand-alone comment, I'd like to give it a thumbs up of its own.

So you'd have 29 year old Tevez, who has gone through his prime, will slowly get worse and isn't in the Argentina national team over 25 year old Huguain who is close to world class and only going to get better due to his age and is currently in the Argentina national team.
There is a reason one is 22m and one 7m….
45 0
Actually, the tevez deal depends on agreeing personal terms with juve and on how much he's in city? 250k/pw? If juve are going to match this, just the salary difference with Higuain would be 30m…
17 0
But what a player is worth and how much they are paid are two very different things. If they were connected then Gareth Barry would be world class….
9 0
Yeah, I should have posted it as a reply to Olayinka, what I mean was 'not only Higuain is a better player, he is also cheaper.' As I stated elsewhere, I don't like players with rooney's or tevez's attitude, I am very glad there is no such player now at Arsenal, and hope there won't be one anytime soon, at least as long as the club doesn't intentionally buy such players.
7 0
Also, I think that Tevez's feee will be paid in installments (because Juve is so poor they can barely pay their players enough to feed themselves) and the 7 million is just the first one.

Will probably never fully get over this if it doesn't pan out, so committed to the possibility despite trying to be cautious . Come on Gonzo, you can become a legend…

Please don't even joke about that.
The way this has dragged on it would be hugely demoralising if it doesn't come off. It's been done so publicly it's a massive risk to take. Although there hasn't been anything actually said by the board or Wenger it certainly seems as though they've been quite happy for this information to all be leaked.
It gets peoples hopes up and the board would normally play it much safer with this sort of thing.
Here's hoping it all goes through smoothly and soon too. This move alone would make my summer.
32 2
How have Wenger/the board been happy for the information to leak? The Arsenal never talk about transfer speculation, be they based in truth or lies. You can speculate this sort of news leaking might encourage fans to renew memberships etc, but you can't say with any certainty that they're happy for leaks.

no one has come out and down-played it have they?

No, but they never comment on rumours. They'd never get anything done if they had to downplay each bit of made up speculation from the press/internet – just look at the Arsenal silly season blog. I wouldn't take silence to mean they're happy for it being leaked.

Real Madrid feel the need to make a statement every couple of seasons or so.
I wouldn't be at all surprised if quality players like Di Maria and Ozil are up for sale in the coming windows.. they're the epitomy of flavour of the month.. they have to have the best of the best (their opinion of the player).
They probably don't see Gonz as exciting as a Cavani or a Suarez or whatever.
Look at their signing of Isco.. that boy is going to be great but I dont think moving to Madrid was a good idea for him..
Anyways one man's trash is another's treasure, so to speak, I'd happily welcome Higuain toThe Arsenal

Would most people on here be happy if Higuain was our only major signing this season.? Just curious.
And do you think he will make us into a seious challenger for the title if he was ?
2 3
If you split teams into 3 sections (defence, midfield and attack), then the trophy winners this year have at least 2 sections that are very good (whether you hate them or not)…
Barcelona had midfield and attack
Utd had defence and attack
Juventus had defence and midfield
Bayern had defence and midfield
While in just the PL; City, Chelsea, Us and Spurs had one very good section. For us, the midfield were our best section for half the season and then from Feb to May it was the defence. If we can get Higuain and improve the attack to near world class then we stand a much better chance all-round.
Whether it's enough is another question but If we can get 2 sections working throughout the season then we'll be in better shape
36 2
That was one of the best analysis I've read lol *stolen*
4 0
It depends on what you define as a major signing. If we signed say this Illamendi chap, who would probably command a reasonable fee (but i would guess less than £15 million) from sociedad as oppose to fellaini would you describe him as a major signing?
But if we signed Higuain, Illamendi and then another 3/4th choice centre back (which by definition means they would not be a major signing) then i would still be reasonably happy with our transfer business, not over the moon by any stretch, but optimistic nonetheless.
As for Higuain potentially making us into a serious title challenger i think we need to look beyond just his own effect on the pitch. His purchase will enable us to swap our main strikers during the season and make injuries and suspensions less of an issue. Having 2 very different strikers like Higuain and Giroud can only be a good thing for the team and provides us with genuine variety upfront as oppose to the square pegs that were put up top when Giroud was rested/suspended. It also means we would have the fabled "Plan B" in games where we are struggling to create or breakdown the opposition and would allow us to change things up whether its Giroud coming on for Higuain or vice versa.
From the evidence of Higuain's goal scoring prowess and the fact that we have often failed to take advantage of goal scoring opportunities in tight games, i think Higuain would certainly help us bridge that 16 point gap but if we were to sign him we must also strengthen appropriately in the other areas of our squad with, to quote Arsene the "right" players not necessarily the most/more expensive ones. Higuian, in my opinion,
just happens to the right player and of the more expensive variety.

Our only 'major' signing? No, I'd not be happy with that at all. Higuain would be a great signing, fingers crossed, and a great start to our summer, but we'd still need a new GK, a CB of some quality (again – why not get a cheap Micah Richards, who can also play RB?) and some good strength in Midfield – that could be a good DM, to free up Arteta, or a classy winger on the left might work to push Santi back into the middle.
We don't need all of those 3/4 players to be marquee signings, but we DO need them – we can't just keep on going with le Prof declaring that he's "happy with his squad" when he doesn't have faith to play half of them.
9 0
We don't really need another winger as a priority, the DM we do, the gk would be nice, the rest we dont need any big names for really, but i want Lars Bender/ Sven Bender or Fellani level DM if were going to free up arteta we can't trust that to a potential or a hoped diamond in the rough signing it needs to be a ready made professional with a bit of muscle.
4 0
Agreed, Bender or Fellaini would be rather lovely. I only mentioned the winger as I don't think Gerv is really going to improve, so to have one more winger would be good – maybe a decent young un', although I can't think of any names. That, or maybe promote Eisfeld and give him his chance.
Assuming we get Sanogo too, I think with him and Afobe on reserve we should be set up front. Reports are starting to suggest we might get Villa too, although certainly not holding my breath on that one.
1 0
No. We need to sign FOUR top-quality players in order to turn this average side into one capable of challenging for the PL title. Higuain would be a good start, but we need a top-notch goalie, a defensive midfielder and an authentic winger to be taken seriously.
I can't see hat happening.
3 9
We need two top quality players in every position to seriously challenge for the Premier League let alone the ECL. We need a top quality striker Higuain 23 mill, a tough midfielder Fellaini 20 mill, a world class AM midfielder 20 mill. We will still have 20 mill for the Jan window. The money is there to buy top quality. No more fourth place is a trophy mentality. Arsenal want the Premiership. Spend da bling.
1 5
What about a back up keeper and centre back? Do we get them for free?
No team has had two top quality players in every position. No team, ever, in existence. Never, ever, ever.
We don't need that. We can't AFFORD that. What we need is more quality in our first team, and more competition amongst our players.
I'll always point to our match against the chavs, earlier this year, for an indication on how we must improve. We were losing by a goal, and our players looked tired. And sitting on the bench was; our back-up goalie, three defenders (two of which hadn't played in a while), two young midfielders, and Arshavin.
We were looking for a goal, and on our bench we had SEVEN players who hadn't scored a single PL goal all season. We only had three first/second XI players out injured. How fucking retarded was that? We were never going to win the game once the chavs had scored, and they knew that.
We need to have two players in every position in our squad, yes, with some extra youngsters adding some flavour. But what we really need is to have that unpredictable factor on the bench. So, imagine this. We're one goal down against one of our big enemies. We are attacking relentlessly to get back into the game. Our rivals are tired, desperately clinging on to their lead. Then, because we have effective squad rotation, we bring on two fresh, massively effective players who are on the bench simply because of this rotation.
The opposition panics, defenders rush everywhere, and in that chaos we steal two quick, late goals. 3 yummy points.
I know it sounds unlikely, but it's what we used to do, and it's what salford does recently.
Um, anyway. Rant over. Jesus, this off-licence wine binge was not a good plan.

"No team has had two top quality players in every position. No team, ever, in existence. Never, ever, ever." … ever, ever, ever.
Manchester City. Or at least they thought they had if you accept the likes of Kolo Toure, Rodwell, Milner, Barry etc as "top quality". (Which they obviously do given their transfer fees.)
But you do bring up two decent points.
1. We had a relatively injury-free season 2012-13.
2. We do need strengthening in depth.
With Squillaci gone, with Djourou going on loan, and with Bacary and TV5 staying we have just seven defenders. We're missing a central defender.
With Diaby uncertain (and including Coquelin) we have just six midfielders only three of whom (Santi, Jack, and TR7) can we classify as attacking.
With Arshavin gone and the unreliability over Gervinho (whether he stays or not) we've a vacancy on the left.
There are holes to fill particularly if we're to manufacture the 17 + 8 = 25 Premier League squad requirements and a decent Champions' League squad.
Just to get to 25 we need at least 3 more players (net), and one will have to be 'home grown'. Make that 4 taking into account Diaby will be unavailable for pretty-much the whole season.
My point is that if I know this the manager knows it too. Which is why the summer transfer window was invented. And why it only opens on July 1st. (Something, historically, we've always seemed to respect.)
We are going to get a central defender. And at least one extra midfielder. And, at least, one (probably two unless we name Gnabry) extra in attack.
So, it's all (probably) under control.
0 0
It seems that Mannone is classed as 'home grown' … I did not know that.
So …
Szczesny, Mannone, Jenkinson, Gibbs, Ramsey, Walcott, Wilshere, and Oxlade-Chamberlain.
So no need for worry there.
0 0
I'm taking this as a positive. This will be our biggest signing in a long time and like most big signings there's no way of keeping it under wraps. So maybe, rather than expecting it to be highjacked I'm seeing this as our way of being welcomed into the big spending league. Seeing as we have more cash to throw about this may be the way the rest of the summer signings will take place – no more "ta-da!" announcements only, we have to put up with the day by day updates. And yes, there will be other summer signings!

what will this mean for Giroud's chances in the first team? they'll be competing for the same position.
0 0
given the vastly different styles the chances of a 2 striker formation and Santi going wide have increased, or Arsen will pick the striker best suited to the strengths and weaknesses of the opposition, i.e against stoke it will be Giroud all day long and possibly bring on Higuain late in the game as a 2nd striker if we need a goal. anti going to the left will also leave Podolski fit for striker duty as 3rd choice, not because he isn't as good as the other 2, but because of the type of player he is, it's a little extra depth.

In my 29 years, this is by far the most exciting transfer we have made. Well, this and Glenn Helder. I do feel a certain characteristic of being a Gooner is extreme scepticism but it would appear we are about to sign a world class footballer (have you seen the goals he has scored?)

Why change our back 6 (including the DM's) from last seasons unbeaten run? Arteta and Ramsey compliment each other with one great at passing and the other being a workhorse. While Wilshere is a very good midfielder, don't change a winning formula. We did that in the '06 CL final and look what happened.
6 0
Look what happened? Our keeper got sent off.
I agree somewhat with what you say (the Arteta/Wilshere partnership was pretty poor) but Arteta/Ramsey does have its limitations as well; it is not unbreakable.
I personally feel that our two centre midfield partnerships should be:
Wilshere-DM (a defensive player who can shield the defense on his own, allowing Wilshere more room to be reckless).
5 0
Key for me is if Ramsey can improve his play going forward and get in there with a few goals for himself, he will be one of the most pivotal members of the team. As is he played a huge role last season, and I'd like him to stay in our starting 11 with Arteta. But if he steps up then he can really cement his starting place. Think he can do it.

F**k the Rooney rumors, we should of gone in for Tevez, 10-12m for him, bargain, such a hard worker and great technical abilities, Higuain/Tevez partnership would of rocked.

Fucking hell, why is he not signed yet???
Arsene and Ivan must have balls of steel to hold out this long
Everyone knows we've got the cash

Maybe they are trying to throw Chamakh into the deal as a sweetener.
Or Santos.

Not yer actual sugar, more one of those artificial sweeteners that make things taste sort of sweet, if you get your tastebuds to do the equivalent of looking at the flavour sideways while squinting.

in other news, Flamini is outa contract soon and so is Micah Richards.
anybody fancy those two ? Richards could cover for CB and RB. Flamini as a DM ?

Not Flamini, but I've always though Micah could do a job for us. He'd be a great choice; a back-up CB and RB with tonnes of PL experience, and he's a gooner to boot. Not the most gifted player, but he'd be a good, reliable defender to have on hand to chuck on when we're holding onto a slim lead, or as cover for injuries (touch wood).

Wasn't too long ago that Richards got a run out for Ing-ger-land in some friendly at Wembley I was watching on the telly. Heavily hyped by the commentators.
My verdict: OK going forwards, but you'd be better off with a revolving door in defence. His reading of threats is non-existent, he's too slow at getting back and even fairly crap opposition can run rings around him.

Off topic, but tales of GK's being signed seems to have died a death.

Whatever happens with Higuain, I hope we raid Dortmund next.

We ate never linked with goal keepers by the press cause we never go in for one. Ps Tevez has joined juventus.

Save us Higuain kenobi, you are NOT our only hope. we need Fellaini to come with too.

Tevez has gone to Juventus. So they're probably not looking for another striker ?
ManCity has only 2 recognized strikers left, so they're definitely in for a striker. Higuain ? Hasn't Higuain played under Pellegrini at Real Madrid ? … who knows. his brother/agent saying he's close to signing for us is just a way to get them to pay more ?
Who else is in the market as a striker and which clubs need strikers ?
Suarez, Lewandowski, Higuain, Cavani, Rooney – can anyone think of any other strikers who are likely to move ?
Real Madrid, Man City, Man Utd, Arsenal – can anyone think of any other teams that are likely to buy a striker ?
Liverpool have already got 2 in. Sp*ds need one ?

add Mario Gomez, Hulk and Christian Benteke to the list of strikers who might be available.

as well as Alvaro Negredo and Roberto Soldado from the Spanish league

Starting to get the jitters about this transfer. I'd rather his brother said that the deal was " done" rather than "close". And why mention Napoli?
1 1
did i not read somewhere that the transfer window doesnt open for another five days? lots of deals "agreed" but none done methinks, hence the Club's caution re Higuain (and Sanogo) !!!
1 1
I really hope that's the case. The fact that man citeh are now down to two main strikers means they'll definitely be looking to bring someone else in. I just hope it's not 'our' gonzo!!

Just seen who our opponents in the CL qualifier can be and we can get Sociedad as i wrote on here at the end of the season when i was wishing Valencia good luck in coming 4th (they would've been seeded). Hope we avoid them but the draw will be even more tense now. http://www.arsenal.com/news/news-archive/champions-league-play-offs-the-lowdown
Also, it's a little strange how Tottenham were seeded despite no recent history in Europe when they qualified a few years ago (maybe they had been in a few UEFA cups) whereas Sociedad came 4th a league which must have a higher co-efficient than the PL and yet are unseeded.

not close enough.

Teves signing for 10m indicates Juve were never in for higgy, probably just a plot to get a higher bid. Let's hope the tottenscum bale – hig – contreau switch is bull shit as well.

[…] Speaking of fictional characters, we heard from the brother of Gonzalo Higuain who admitted things were warming up in terms of his move to Arsenal. He said: […]

He looks like Flamini in that photo. He needs a haircut like Jenkinson.

I have now spent around 6 hours per day for the last week hunting the net for the words "he has signed" and when I get up in the morning the first thought that comes to me is today is the day and its driving me crazy.
If this doesn't happen then I want a refund of hours lost from my life.
Come on Arsenal give us the news it's driving me crazy.

papers today say Madrid have offered players plus cash to Sp*ds for Bale. they've offered Higuain.
if this is true, i wonder why it is that we always find new ways of getting screwed.
still, nothing is certain yet. but the more worrying thing is the papers have us in for Rooney.
won't some other club please come and get him and take him off our minds. ManCity ? would he go there ?

Can't see that working if he's been negotiating with us:
"Gonzalo, hold your horses, we've offered you to Sp*rs in exchange for Bale."
"Thees ees no good. Everyone I spik to say they are a bonch of festering cunts and I do not want to go there."

So his options are to go to 5th placed Europa cup Spurs as part of a player plus cash deal for the Welsh wizard.
Or join 4th place Champions League Arsenal as their marquee signing.
I know what I'd do.
