"Are you sure I can't get you a soda?"
I'm sitting in the anteroom of the vast corner office of New York City special narcotics prosecutor Bridget Brennan, who is reaching down to a minifridge wedged between the desks of her two assistants. She is one of the nation's toughest pursuers of drug traffickers, kingpins and gang thugs, but right now Brennan is acting like my Italian grandmother, who never let anyone refuse an offer of food or drink.
"How about coffee?" she continues. "A tea! Water? I know I'm parched." The second oldest of 11 children, Brennan learned early on to be a sort of third parent: a nurturing caretaker who also knows the importance of rules and proper behavior.
Satisfied that her guest does not need hydrating, she pulls out a ginger ale for herself. We are just back from a press conference in Brooklyn, and Brennan is coolly camera ready in a fitted dark-blue and white-stippled jacket with carbon piping, solid blue skirt and knee-high black leather boots. She prefers vibrant colors but thinks blue is a "serene" hue that photographs well at press events. Given that Brennan oversees some 3,000 arrests each year—suspects range from the most pitiable addicts, who may get treatment instead of jail time, to some of the most vicious criminals imaginable—"serene" seems like a wise choice for her fashion arsenal.
The Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor was formed in 1971 in response to the city's heroin epidemic, a gritty, violent time portrayed in such films as The French Connection and The Panic in Needle Park. Brennan, 57, is the fourth chief, and the first woman, to run the division. She answers to five bosses—the district attorneys of each of New York's five boroughs, who appointed her—and supervises a staff of 200.
The press conference, which was to announce a major bust, started late, and she had a packed day ahead. Brennan spoke movingly about a community "held hostage" by warring gangs. But she checked her watch discreetly; she wanted to get back in time for a strategy session about her newest top priority: the growing crisis of prescription-painkiller abuse.
Unlike the junkies of decades past, the victims of this epidemic are "not looking to get high, and they're not using drugs as a crutch," she tells me. Many of them—including a relative of hers who abused fentanyl patches—are instead what Brennan calls "accidental addicts," people who became hooked "merely by taking their medication the way they thought they were supposed to take it. They had some legitimate pain issue, like a pulled wisdom tooth, but they were prescribed a 30-day supply when they only really needed it for four days."
It's doctors who write those prescriptions, and Brennan has the medical establishment in her crosshairs. "We learned that between 2007 and 2010, the prescriptions for oxycodone alone had gone up by 100 percent, to over a million per year," she says. She pauses a beat. "That's prescriptions, not pills. One million prescriptions. For New York, a city of 8.5 million people."
The national statistics are equally alarming. Whereas physicians were once loath to prescribe opioid-based medications such as Vicodin (hydrocodone) and OxyContin (oxycodone) for anything but end-of-life hospice care or the short-term treatment of acute postsurgical pain, they've more recently changed their style. From 1997 to 2007, the number of milligrams of opioids prescribed per person in the U.S. skyrocketed by 402 percent. Admissions to rehab centers for painkiller-addiction treatment have quadrupled.

Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...
Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Has Two Dimensions,...
Diseases of the Eye That Cause...
Merck Serono set up a novel research collaboration to start innovative projects under the roof of a center operated by BioMed X. The new lab will focus on establishing a completely different way of fostering innovation. With the support of BioMed X, it will allow Merck Serono to run research projects with interdisciplinary project teams of young talented scientists, coached by a supervisor at Merck Serono and an experienced academic in an open-innovation lab facility in Heidelberg.
Top young talent from leading academic institutions worldwide will be selected through assessment centers based on their scientific expertise, creative energy, and passion for product-oriented preclinical R&D. Interdisciplinary project teams will collaborate with guidance of experienced mentors while expanding their scientific network and receiving training in entrepreneurship and leadership.
Under the terms of the agreement, Merck Serono will run its own research projects in the biomedical research lab in Heidelberg operated by BioMed X. The projects will be funded by Merck Serono. The project teams will work on new approaches to cancer therapy.
"Our goal is to seed and boost early stage research projects by placing them into a vibrant environment, bringing in top young talent to work at the interface between industry and academia in one of the top European research hubs in Heidelberg," explained Bernhard Kirschbaum, head of global research and early development at Merck Serono. "We expect this concept can result in a constant flow of innovative projects and creative talent into Merck Serono."
In addition to operating the innovation center, BioMed X will be responsible for worldwide recruiting of young talents, providing education to teams, and securing access to academic research infrastructure in Heidelberg.

Thousands of dollars in jewelry missing after pair of break-ins
Published: Friday, September 20, 2013 at 11:28 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 20, 2013 at 11:28 a.m.
The Davidson County Sheriff's Office is investigating a pair of break-ins that involve thousands of dollars of missing jewelry.
A resident reported a break-in to his home on Mock Street in Reeds at 1:47 p.m. Thursday, and a resident of Arbor Drive just south of the Lexington city limits reported a break-in to his house later in the day at 6:55 p.m. The sheriff's office hasn't ruled out the possibility that the break-ins are related.
The Arbor Drive resident reported $36,920 in missing jewelry, including four necklaces, four rings, three sets of earrings and jewelry set. The residence was last secure at 9 a.m. A DCSO report stated the suspect kicked open the side carport door and stole items.
The Mock Street resident reported $15,950 in missing jewelry, including two necklaces, four bracelets, three rings, a set of earrings, a PlayStation 3 and games for the video system. A DCSO report also stated the suspect kicked in a door and stole items.
The residence was last secure at 12:15 p.m. Thursday.
Capt. Casey Tarleton of the DCSO encourages anyone with information to contact his agency at 242-2105 or Lexington Area Crimestoppers at 243-2400.

Sale Price:
Published for the first time since it was condemned as heresy by early church leaders, the Gospel of Judas is told from the perspective of Judas Iscariot, history's ultimate traitor. However, the Judas that emerges in this volume is a hero, not a villain. The gospel has been translated from its original Coptic into clear prose and is accompanied by commentary that explains its fascinating history in the context of the early church, offering a whole new way of understanding the message of Jesus Christ.

The Gospel of Judas book review
By 160853
from Hong Kong
Comments about The Gospel of Judas, 1st Edition:
The Gospel of Judas describes the event that occurred three days before the celebration of Passover, in a secret conversation between Jesus and his disciple, Judas Iscariot. At the end of their conversation, however, Judas no longer remains as one of the disciples for he is arrested by the scribes for his betrayal of Jesus. As the gospel progressed, it became quite difficult to understand the reasons leading to his betrayal and this was mainly due to the increasing number of lines which turned out to be missing from the rest of the gospel. It was later found to be so because of the lack of proper handling and storage. Therefore, the missing lines were instead represented by either words, periods, or the number of missing lines, all put in brackets. Overall, this difficulty made it harder to understand the conversations that took place between Jesus and Judas.

The Gospel of Judas and Sant Mat
By Sahansdal
from San Jose, CA
About Me Everyday Reader
Best Uses
This book introduces the Gospel of Judas, the gospel that will link the Bible with Sant Mat, the modern mystic teachings that were brought to us over a hundred years ago in Swami Ji's "Sar Bachan" (available complete online at Scribd). The "Apophasis Logos" that is the incipt's first words are the "Shabd" of Sant Mat, or the "Word said without speaking" from the Greek loanwords. The "region never called by any name" that Jesus tells Judas about is "Anami Desh", "region with no name", from Swami Ji's Sar Bachan, page 26. Judas is the one disappearing into the luminous cloud at the end, WITH Jesus, both merging into the light (that's what new fragments reveal: "Judas stopped gazing at Jesus"). The whole gist of the gospel tallies perfectly with Sant Mat.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

State of Exception Panel Discussion on materiality and violence
With Stephen Brighton, Kathryn Ferguson, Robin Rieneke, and Jason De León. Offered in association with the opening of the exhibit, State of Exception. Two days of events are planned around the exhibit opening which will bring together students, scholars in the field, artists, and the local community. The exhibit presents traces of the human experience—backpacks, water bottles, border patrol restraints, and other objects left behind in the desert by both undocumented migrants on their journey into the U.S. and the law enforcement agents who seek to keep them out. This in combination with video shot by Richard Barnes on location along the U.S./Mexico border comprises State of Exception, the first major curation of the work of U-M anthropologist Jason De León's Undocumented Migration Project. This collaboration between artist/photographer Richard Barnes, De León, and curator Amanda Krugliak considers the complexities and ambiguities of found objects and what they may or may not reveal in terms of transition, human experience, culture, violence, and accountability. Based at the University of Michigan, the Undocumented Migration Project is a long-term anthropological study of undocumented migration between Mexico and the United States that uses ethnography, archaeology, and forensic science to better understand this clandestine social process.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Koop Great Gift! My grandson was very pleased with this skillet. He said he had one that wasn't as well made that bent when it heated and he was sure this one would not. He also liked the removable handle. June 23, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Wendy Great skillet! I'm going on my 2nd year with this awesome skillet & highly recommend it to anyone who likes grilled veggies. We are huge fans on kabobs which are usually on skewers, but with this pan, you really don't need skewers. Very easy to clean & use! June 13, 2012

Windows 8.1 Update and
Windows RT 8.1 Update (also known as KB 2919355) include improvements that make your favorite apps and settings easier to find and use, and provide more familiar mouse and keyboard options. For more info, see What's new in Windows 8.1 Update and Windows RT 8.1 Update?
Here's what you need to know about installing this important update.
If you're running Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 and you get updates automatically, you don't need to do anything: Windows Update will download and install the update for you within the next few weeks. It won't interrupt what you're doing except to tell you that you need to restart your PC to finish the installation.
To check if the update is already installed, go to the Start screen. If you see a Search button near your account name at the top of the Start screen, you already have the update.
The update is gradually rolling out to everyone with a PC running Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 over a period of several weeks. If you get automatic updates but you don't see the update yet, wait a few days and check again.
If you're running Windows RT 8.1, this update is automatic. If you're running Windows 8.1 and you want to check your Windows Update settings, see Turn automatic updating on or off.
If your PC is running Windows 8 or Windows RT, open the Windows Store on your PC and update to Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1. This latest update will be included. For more info, see Update to Windows 8.1 from Windows 8.
If you're not sure which operating system your PC is running, see Which Windows operating system am I running?
If you're connected to the Internet over a metered connection, you might not get the update until you switch to a non-metered connection and then check manually for updates. For more info, see Metered Internet connections: FAQ.
If you're running Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 and you don't have the update yet, you can manually check for and install the update by following these steps:
Make sure your PC is plugged in and connected to the Internet using a non-metered connection. Don't disconnect, unplug, or turn off your PC while the update is being installed.
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings. (If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)

After the installation is complete, restart your PC and sign in.
If you don't see KB 2919355 in the list of available updates, you might be missing one or more required updates. Follow the previous steps to check for updates, install all important updates, particularly KB 2919442, restart your PC, and then check for KB 2919355 again.
We strongly recommend that you install
Windows 8.1 Update or
Windows RT 8.1 Update (KB 2919355). This is a critical update that is required for future updates to Windows. If you prevent it from installing or you uninstall it, you won't get future bug fixes, security updates, and new features.
In some cases, if you uninstall this update from a new PC after signing in with a Microsoft account, OneDrive might not work as expected.
In most cases, you'll need the following amount of available drive space on your PC to download and install the
Windows 8.1 Update or
Windows RT 8.1 Update (KB 2919355) from Windows Update, depending on your version of Windows:
Windows 8.1 (64-bit version): 2 GB
Windows 8.1 (32-bit version): 0.8 GB
Windows RT 8.1: 1.1 GB
These amounts are estimates, so you might need slightly more or less available drive space for the update. To learn how to check the current space on your PC and free up space, see Tips to free up drive space on your PC.

Firstly when I find an absolute gun newgen and the players agent refuses to negotiate a contract.
Secondly, when managing a club, and we are set to move to a much much bigger stadium, yet it gets postponed by 12 months, time and time again.
Thoughts ?
And for other people, name 2 things that really get you mad in FM12 ...
Don't get me wrong, I love Football Manager 12, and all past versions.
-when the sub comes on before the other player goes off... this really annoys me.
crosses into the box never go to the mans head. Every goal from a cross is a volley or a tap in . as such, my 194cm tall striker, with 17 heading and 14 jumping, hasnt scored a single header despite having two wingers crossing often, aiming at the target man in the middle which is my striker, (one of the wingers has 13 crossing as well) he hasnt scored a single headed goal. This isnt because he's missing the headers, its because the the ball never comes in high enough!
Might be a stupid question but have you set crossing to 'float', 'drill' or 'mixed'?
wow done the match again, back to the usual rubbish away form where players turn to drunken stickmen.
all the decent newgens are spawning in dumb places, i got a 200 pa from belarus and found a 199 in egypt. and a bunch of other fantatic defenders... in thailand, japan, nigeria, uSA, all unsignable to work permit issues and they never get called up.
I can understand it happening a number of times throughout the season if you're a big team but for players who are supposed to be highly professional and determined complacency feels far too common.
i had them go complacent after 6 minutes into a game, we scored, spent rest of the game being rubbish.
too much of a sway, every team gets a period in the game, yet i go away to the big teams and get very little, that does not happen in real life.
Brazilian League is sorted by wins. So when it says Team X can go up two places if they secure a win against Team Y. When the teams their taking over have two wins more than Team X, it bugs me.
When I press 'Continue' and it comes up with the 'hint and tip' that "Picking someone with a high attribute in corners will make a good corner taker"
Captain obvious.
yes but the backroom advice never follows it.
The one little thing that annoys me is when the game says something along the lines of "Portsmouth have been the most prolific team in the transfer market bringing in an incredible 11 players", when in fact you've brought in 2 first teamers and 9 youngsters for the U18s.
It makes me worry that the game will think my first team has suffered a massive turnaround of players and punish me with disjointed performances.
The sheer stupidity of AI Clubs. I have just had a screenshot. "SAMIR NASRI PUTS PEN TO PAPER ON LUCRATIVE 2 YEAR DEAL WORTH £11,000,000."
He has been on loan with my West Ham side for 3 years!! Hasn't kicked a ball for Man City in all that time and they give him a new 2 year deal. Bizarre...
I'm managing Anzhi Makhachkala, who play in a relatively small, open stadium. Now I know that SI don't have the rights to reproduce stadiums in the game as they appear in real life, and I actually feel that the Anzhi stadium looks quite realistic in-game anyway. But what annoys me is what I see outside the stadium - a row of posh-looking terraced housing like you'd see in a middle-class area of London! This is Makhachkala, Dagestan! I know you don't know exactly what it's like outside each and every stadium, but don't stick a load of quintessentially English housing outside a Dagestani football stadium. I'd prefer some kind of generic wasteground.
Love the game but still several annoying things....
> Player Histories!!!
> Conference Question..." You've had a bit of a break..." er no; its been internationals and 95% of my squad has been away so hardly a rest for them!
> Manager rotation - manager sacked at spurs, replaced with fulham manager for spurs manager to take the fulham role. Maybe once in a blue moon this happens
> I'll echo the fans thinking the sale of a crap youth player for most of a season. He was poor and wouldn't have made cup appearances so get over it
> Hall of Fame not including ALL trophies. Even if the lague cup is a minor competition INCLUDE IT, what about the Club World Championship.... surely they all generate points!
> I'll echo those who have said about contract offers - SI simply have to include the ability for managers to say - I HAVE, you/your agent turned it down. I occasionally see that a player sacks an agent after the break down in contract talks but managers need to be able to say "I matched all of your demands, wages etc but your agent wants 10m I'm sorry but no... you can either get him to renegotiate or sit on your current deal!"
> The media not learning as the game goes on. Known for attacking play at your previous team you take control of another only to be asked what type of football, what type of manager, transfer targets etc. At least evolve and ask if the circumstances of the new club will dictate a change in your personal style i.e. for the remainder of the season we just have to win no matter what but in the longer term... or the club needs experience but I'll be looking to youth once the ship has been steadied
Players doing a Usain Bolt superman when celebrating a gaol, I'm sure someone in SI towers had a right giggle when they first saw it but 20 seasons later it is now more annoying than players 'rocking the baby'.
The way long throws are represented in an attacking sense. Every player stays behind the ball and waits for it to drop, meaning it usually ends up at an attacking player's feet only a few yards from goal. Players never try to get in front to win the header, and it's yet another example of the defensive deficiencies in the 3D.
Long throws in real life are generally like another cross, where the game treats them like a long ball to feet.
The fact that defenders do not bother to mark the player standing in an offside position near the byline at throw-ins - I guess someone forgot to program the AI to understand that you can't be offside from a throw in.
when i see long throws in the game, they look spot on, i rarely score from them (i think 1 a seson) they are more like corners
I find they are allowed to drop far too deep and to feet. In real life defenders would immediately get in front to win a header, or at least force the attacker to win it in the air. They wouldn't allow it to go to feet six yards out.
One thing that bugs me is that no matter what level in England I am managing at, whether it's championship, L1 or L2, my games are always officiated by a premier league referee. It's Walsall v Tranmere on a saturday and I've got bloody Howard Webb in charge.
Scout believes player X should be regarded as a definite purchase
*buys player*
Assman believes player X's squad status should be changed. he sees him more as "backup to the first team".
For all my first choice back 4...
Anyone here has ever seen a backpass to the keeper called a foul?
mine are
keeper wandering to wherever the free kick is to be taken from , then back to his goal or behind it to get the ball .
sent off player going and sitting on the subs bench
striker clean through on goal turning and passing back to a midfielder, or with a clear shot at goal in the penalty area passing the ball instead
Why does the ball go through to the roof of the net when it comes from over (e.g missed lob). If side-netting is possible, top-netting is possible too. Tbh this is not so small and insignificant for me and it's really annoying.
Agent/club spam. No, I won't buy that Japanese dude for my all-German team, especially when you're offering him for 2x his value and asking millions for agent fees.
The quantity of yellow cards. Makes me shake each match as my top striker going down would mean a major blow. Cmon dudes, this is soccer - it's brutal.
Player Search:
Asking my AssMan to filter out unrealistic targets, and then showing a whole host of Player/managers or Player/Coaches that I cannot sign. Please filter these out too, as I would deem them unrealistic too.
Match Ratings on Player stat screen:
This just shows bars, but you cannot read the exact rating for each match. There is no tool-tip on mouseover. That makes it more or less useless except as a quick overview of his performance, which could just as easily be done with a graph. Give me the exact match rating, at least on mouse over.
There is a free kick routine where the player taking the free kick does a quick short pass to a player with his back to the ball. One of two things happens, the ball bounces off your player intot he patch an opposition player, or your player stands completely still whilst the opposition player "intecepts" the ball. Any time a player tries to pass the through one of their own players and the ball bounces of their back, that happens a lot more then it should. Also in the match engine there are times when the ball comes near one of your players but they completely ignore it and just stand there whilst another one of your players runs across half the pitch to get the ball.
Negotiations aren't really negotiations. You have the initial offer, your counter offer, and then what is normally more or less their final offer.
I want £50k a week.
How about £20k?
I want £40k.
How about £25k?
I want £40k.
How about £30k?
I want £40k.
How about £35k?
I want £40k.
How about £38k?
I want £40k.
How about £39k?
Two days later. News item saying player X has rejected a new contract offer. Or worse the agent gets annoyed cancels the talks then hates you. I'm sorry you hate me for making you do your job? :confused:
Club's not getting the message when I keep rejecting their loan offers. I didn't want to loan my player to you the first, second, third or fourth time you asked so why have you placed the same offer for a fifth time in a fortnight?
But yeah ... I have seen a similar thing where a New Zealand club kept offering a contract to Besart Berisha (german/albanian player), and kept having to cancel the transfer as they were only allowed one Marque player (whatever that is) .. then two weeks later trying to sign him again, with the same result. I think they tried this about 5 times (so far).

just seen more ME stupidity, Penalty given for a push.
A. the player was OUTSIDE the area
B. what sort of push makes a player fall forwards when the player was next to him by his side looking at him?
Ask Ashley Young.
I don't have a problem with 'a' as mistakes are a part of the game.
ashley young went in the direction of the foul. a push to the side would not make you fall forwards.
and the net thing annoys me as well.

Player wants to leave as he's not getting first team football, you say you'll find a club for him, you offer him to other clubs but no one is interested, and player complains that you didn't keep your promise and may take things further.
My right-back has all the time in the world to get to the ball, but for some reason he still needed more time, striker (who was initially miles away) nicks the ball from him, runs through and smashes it past the keeper, who could have possibly been better positioned. Motivation screen says keeper made mistake for the goal and now has a rating of 5.5. The right-back, who was clearly the main culprit still says playing ok and no mention of his far more significant error.
Players being removed from my shortlist as per my instruction despite the fact that I ALWAYS choose add indefinitely.
Just lost an important game that could very well cost me the title. First question in post match press conference: "That was player x's 125th appearance for the club ". Why are you asking me this question?? My team are on the brink of a late season collapse and you're asking me if a player (who probably didn't even play well) is a great servant to the club? What's the significance of 125 appearances anyway?
I click on a player who I've just sold (just to see him in the new colours, I don't know why), and it says I'll need to scout him to know what my assistant thinks of him, despite the fact that just a day before he was part of my squad, and was so for the last 3 years.
Arsenal showing as white/red rather than red/white when playing Fulham at home, yet 3D view shows they're wearing the usual home kit.
problems with the text **** me of
i hate when i scout a bunch of people, that everyone is automatically on my subscribe list, is there any way to change that?
The number of times that the other team score right from the kick off after you've scored. Happens WAY too often on FM in comparison to real life.
A) players moan about not getting payed a lot despite being payed more than anyone else in the league
B) Players moan about the team not being prestigous enough for them but they moan every 3 months about it when it is not possible to change your reputation that quickly
C) in all 3 of my saves Lyon are ridiculously overpowered with great regens every year in 10 seasons they have made at least the CL semi final every time winning 4 times and have answered 9 of my goals with a goal within 45 seconds
D) i have a conversation with an unhappy player the chat ends unexpected and I have 12 players moan about how I have disrespected their mate
E) February comes and I always hit a blip
F) they restrict how often you can up your youth setup we have won the CL 3 times in a row and all of our youth to the exception of 2 would not even get signed in the conference north/south
and G) all the regens look the same which isn't realistic to me
Not able to lock a specific coach for a coach report. Argh! Everytime it goes back to the assistant!
The Board are happy that I declined to comment on a job offer, but when I actually rejected an offer, they won't react one bit.
The number of times a player scores his first goal of the season against you. Fine if it's the first couple of weeks but it's still going on in the last few games! Also reserves getting their one and only runout of the season will score against you. This also happens with their first goal for the club.

Good one Mike7077. The game just gets too slow after a few seasons. I know I dont have a state of the art laptop, but having to wait this long for the processing to end after I hit Continue is ridiculous. In fact, starting up the game and loading my save takes forever. And I've only got two leagues loaded (using add/remove leagues).
And if that is not annoying enough in itself I get informed (while waiting on the processing to end) about some Zambian player being transferred to some Zimbabwean club on a free transfer, some Belarussian player deciding to retire at 24 or Indonesia -19's drawing against Bhutan -19's. That's just rubbing it in..
The speed of the game needs to improve drasticly in FM13 or I see myself forced to return to an earlier version.. I usually start a save when I buy the new game and play that save untill the new game is released a year onwards, but this is utopia at the speed FM12 is in my current save, and I'v started all over twice already. New laptop maybe, but the game is fine in the first couple of seasons, so it should be later on, especially withe the add/remove leagues option keeping active leagues to a minimum

I bought a regen youngster from Dortmund in my 2nd season, assistant manager suggests I get Rosicky to tutor him. This is a good idea as Rosicky is a former Dortmund player and may help things. Later in the season youngster is very happy with how it went, they got on very well off the pitch, etc and Rosicky is now one of his favoured personnel. 3rd season assistant manager suggests it again so I go for it knowing how well it went last time. When it's over youngster is not happy as he learned nothing and there was a clash of personalities.
WHAT?? He was your best mate last time round! What's more, despite this clash of personalities Rosicky is still one of his favoured personnel and there is no mention of this clash in his general happiness!
Had a goal go down as an own goal from the keeper, even though he went to clear it, it smacked a defender standing near the penalty spot and rebounded in. Surely this is an own goal by the defender?!
it is usualy from those stupid corners, long shots and kock off goals as well.
and on long throws, i have had them behave like a corner, defender heads it in :P
My full-back scores a rare goal. Post match press conference: "A bit of a collector's item today - a goal from player X!". Fair enough, he's a full-back so isn't really tall enough to go up for corners and, being a defender, doesn't get too many scoring opportunities. Option 1: He'll start banging them in on a regular basis now!". No he won't, he's still a full-back so still won't get many chances. Option 2: "It was great to see, he's been working really hard to improve that side of his game". No he hasn't, he's a full-back and isn't expected or even required to score goals.
What annoys me is this:
I play the following formation: GK-DR-DCR-DCL-DL-DM-MCR-MCL-AMR-AML-STR
In the tactics screen before the game, during half time and after the game, the list of players is exactly in that sequence. However, during the game itself in TV-mode, the list of players in both de 'Assman feedback' window and the 'Team motivation' window the list is: GK-DR-DCR-DCL-MCR-DM-MCL-AML-STR-AMR. Very confusing. Is this a little bug in the game, or something of my own doing? I have posted this question elsewhere too.
Tiny fruit flys.
My team has 1 nervous player- I will still play well, create lots of chances but not score and end up with poor result; opposition has a team full of nervous players and it makes no difference to their performance or ability to score!
The keeper, seemingly on ice, gliding right out of the penalty area when he gathers up a harmless punt up the park and getting sent off in the process. happened to me twice in 3 games.
and no, it wasn't the depths of winter, it was an Italian September.
On my save (now in 2019) England hired Stuart Pearce from the start of the game. He won back-to-back Euro Championships and then resigned in 2016. Since then England have hired 4! unknown managers who haven't had any previous football/background experience! 2 have retired and 1 was sacked with the 4th still in charge. Surely there would be someone who wants to manage their national side with managerial experience?! They haven't performed badly (bar the one who got sacked) so it's not a major problem but it just annoys me seeing random people in charge of the national side.
players controling the ball, getting to the 6 yard box... then somehow skying the shot.
away game junk... sort that out, players playing like they are in treakle is no fun

- Balls always get booted to Row Z. By now, we should have many many balls lying around in Row Z!
- Youth players unhappy when I tried getting someone to tutor him
- Defender strolling towards the ball when the striker is in hot pursuit behind him
- Opponents scoring too many long shots. Scenario: opponent's striker is 35m away from your goal, you've got a couple of man on him. Suddenly, he rifles the ball into the roof of your net.
When players don't seem to want to actually play football...
Older players who would rather sit there and be unattached than sign for a top club...I'm the league winning PSG it's the 2nd season and Paul Scholes won't go anywhere near us. He'd rather sit and sulk that united have had thr audacity to released him.
Transfers like Eto or Drogba to a rich foreign league or Cahill to MSL just will not/can not happen in the game...
Somebody like say Rio or Carragher or whoever signing for the A-League or going to the US for one last hurrah is what we have come to expect...ditto a 33 year old World Class player going to Russia or China or like Salgado...to Blackburn.
This virtually does not happen with players choosing to retire rotting in the reserves of a big club but yet for example if you are a smaller London based Prem team and you go in for say Lampard in the 3rd season despite him playing maybe ten games the previous season...or he might sign but would still expect £100K per week and no matter how little football a player has been getting if he is retiring at the end of the season he is going nowhere!
When you are managing a National team they are still referred to as a "club" in press conferences.
Winger is clear, striker is ready to receive the cross for an easy scoring chance... but no!
Winger decides to stop, turns around and either passes the ball back to the overlapping fullback (who hits a predictable cross from deep) or hits the closing down defender and it's a corner.
1. On highlights view-A player getting injured and been forced to watch him roll around, the phyiso coming on, and then finally limping off, all this takes about 3mins and how it qualifies as a "highlight" ill never know. Yes you have the speed slider but its still annoying to have to bring this up and tilt it back and forth whenever this happens.
2. My back four taking an absurd amount of time to pick up loose balls, resulting in times when opposition players who started 10-15 meters further away getting there first. I'm pretty sure this is just a case of the ME poorly representing what is actually going on but still.
3. Not having the option to only view goal replays for my team, I don't want to view replays of opposition goals ffs.
4. Resorting to offering my players for stupidly low money in desperation to sell them but STILL not getting any offers.
5. Offering a player on loan who can easy be a very good player at Championship and below level, paying 100% of the wages but STILL not getting any offers.
4 part 2. Offering players FOR NOTHING and STILL not getting any offers, despite them all been on modest, easily affordable wages.
6. Doing the above 3 constancy for 4 months, then the player disrupting morale because "I broke a promise to sell", I ****ing tried everything ffs.
7. "Opposition team" profit from wasteful "my team". annoying because it usealiys follows on from an annoying game.
8. Very average/poor goal keepers going into god mode when you play them, only to go back to been their useless ****y selfs for the rest of the season.
9. One of my strikers missing like 4-5 CCCs, then having ago at me when I tell them they missed to many chances last match.
10. Amazingly qualify for the world cup as a massive underdog team, get a stupidly tough group stage draw, go out on 6pts (goals scored) and the two progressed teams both make the final.
11. Despite been by far the best English striker, I have never been able to get Wayne Rooney to perform at all at international level. constantly getting 5.8s ratings. Good job on si for translating his RL England form I guess.
12. World class players who their country massively relys on (no alternatives in that position) international retireing as soon as they hit 30.
13. Club managers withdrawing or liming to 45mins 2/3s of my squad.
14. Having a team which has this dreadful habit of playing amazing until they concede any type of goal. Leading to 3-0 HT wins to 4-3 losses.
15. Players who you have done an awful lot for, such as keeping with them though multiple massive injuries spells and continue to give them first team chances whereas allot of other teams would of forgot about them and labled them the next Paul Hargreaves, only to **** off the first chance they get. I'm looking at you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Kightly
16. Managers having "a relatively poor opinion of you" for no reason.
17. Thumping the premier league favourites 4-0 away, then losing to a league 2 side at home 5 days later.
18. Manchester City constantly poaching my staff.
19. Assistant Manager making terrible decisions if i give him any kind of power. (Arranging friendlies at home to San Marino, giving crap youth players good contracts etc)
20. Players who insist on "match highest earner clause"
21. Not been able to appeal directly to the player when he is "very interested" and his agent is been a blatant dick is negotiations.
22. My assistant always always "didn't see the incident to is not sure if I should appeal" does he even watch the games ffs.
23. Players getting double yellowed for two acts of diving. (On my team)
24. Overly lenient referees who you could shoot but only get "a stern telling off"
25. Still not knowing what screen flow really does or how it works.
Still love the game thou =)
- players walking away before the ref issues a card
- the unnecessary waste of time when having to watch sometimes minutes of scenes with no highlights between making a tactical change and it taking effect
- ball goes out for corner, corner taker walks slowly towards corner (no no shortcut in the scene), realizes the ball is somewhere else, walks to the ball, takes it, walks back to the corner. Another minute of my life lost
- players being just few steps away from an open ball but either losing a 10 mile advantage by just walking or only beginning to move towards the ball when the opposition players already has an advantage to get to it. I know it's not, but that feels sooooooo scripted when that happens

i had a manager like me and dislike like 2 months apart, although it was Kenny Dalgleash :P
i do hate that corner stuff, happens on goal kick, even more annoying when they throw it from behind the goal, it hits the post so they then walk to get that at such a slow pace on max speed :P

Not having numbers on the sliders. Ok you download a skin for it but why the hell is it not in the game to begin with?
Injuries seem to happen, then the players get injured within weeks or in thier first match back (when you are trying to get some match fitness on them) it happens far too often to be a coincidence, and is meaning you dont have a player for half a season.
even had one injured in training..... the same day i got the back intraining from injury message
I think it's a bit strange when the board accepts an offer for your star player and then criticizes you for letting that player go in the monthly reports...it's not like it was my choice to offload him!!
I hate it when Press Conferences highlight the same old thing (usually the most boring), and how you can't even view stats/attributes of board members anymore. Also the "Ex-England Star" thing. Just pick an ex international! I also don't understand how "I think many areas of the squad could be strengthened" = "Manager pleased with squad".
When a player breaks his leg, its over.
No point in keeping the player, just move him on asap.
Lost way to many wonderkids like that...
The answer line you quoted is available only if your are giving an unsure answer about your chances in the next match and ususally leads to the news item line "manager name wants more players" or similar.
In the English league, no matter what level you are playing at you will always have a Premier League referee officiating your game. Very annoying!
In the board meeting I get some suggestions of coaches that would be good to sign for my club and I offer them a contract. Then I get a new message saying that the board has cancelled the transfer as they don't feel that we need another coach...why the hell do you suggest people to me then???
My gripe is that when you select a player from their international screen ie the Argentina Squad screen, it only tells me they are Argentinian. I want to know what their club is not nationality, the big flag next to their name is already a big give away.
For Example I dont want to see 18. Matius Ezequiel Schelotto Midfielder (Right) D/WB/AM(R) Argentina I want 18. Matius Ezequiel Schelotto Midfielder (Right) D/WB/AM(R) Cesena
It used to be like that in previous versions but now I have to sift through the players history to find his club.
Also managers from clubs you have never played before saying that They are not your biggest fans and that they dont see eye to eye with you on many things or I get on really well with (you) even though you have never set foot in their country or ever heard of the Europa League qualifying round 1 team.

offsides when it comes off the opposition player..... therfore you are not offside
and injures. its nothing to do with staff. its to do with tiredness.I had 2 players injured, next game another 2 get injured, then ahd to limp through a period of 2 games a week with tired/reserve players. and on of my other strikers going off injured EVERY GAME
Last edited by scott MUFC; 18-08-2012 at 23:29.
Regardless of how crappy a goalie may be overall, if he has reflexes of 15 or higher, he will save everything.
I have three injuries in my squad at the moment. You might say: "Hey, I've seen worse!" And you'd be absolutely right! Only problem is, ALL three of them are DL's and all three of them are out for at least a month, one even 4 months! I say: Hello youth squad!
Anyway, I thought this thread was about small insignificant things that annoy you, such as the one about ref and player taking weeks to walk towards each other! Seems like it's just become a thread to moan about everything in the game (myself included)!
So when I get a red card several matches in a row, all the players in one position becomes injured in short order, the opponent succeeds with amazing things like 30-yard long shots whenever they want/need to and the whole team morale drops below ground level for no reason, then I say "oh well - poor form sets in" and take it on the chin because that is just how it is. Squad building and some team talk measures usually alleviate some of the dire effects of Poor Form, until it ends and you can continue where you left off.
As for -real- "small and insignificant things", I'd say it is the lack of movie direction in the ME that annoys me the most, still. There is so much unnecessary walking in the sequences that could be just cut from the game entirely (including Full Match). Why visualize picking up the ball before throwing in or taking the corner? Once the ball leaves the field, cut!
Players complaining of a 'lack of first team football' after being out half the season injured and has only returned to training to do light training
I don't want to read through everyone's but my main one's are youth players getting to big for their boots and not wanting to drop into league 2 etc and no option of buying a player but him staying there or going straight on loan for 6 months - 2 years.
Players not even wanting to discuss contracts with your team, in today's market agents would at least hear you out as they are a very unscrupulous bunch.
I hate agents asking for new contracts when some team has offered a really awful price for your star player!! DIE AGENTS DIE!
One other annoying thing is money-motivated players. You really get to see who they are when you set low bonuses for the season. Their morale's difficult to keep above poor, and they're about as consistent as the British summer weather.
It really annoys me that when I switch tactics during a match the opposition instructions get wiped out. I didn't say "stop marking that guy" I just said change formation. In real life management that just wouldn't happen.
And my new favorite:
Player raises a concern because he's not happy with his contract. You talk to him and say "Fine, I'll offer you another contract within the month.", largely because the only other conversation options are different variations of "f**k off", and he is the current fans player of the year after all so you want to try and work with him.
He seems happy with what you said, his morale goes up, and you're on the hook for a promise.
Then you go click on him immediately afterwards to offer him a new contract and he says he doesn't want to negotiate.
And to cap that, being in the BSN, it's not like I can sell him to someone and get him off the team... I'm now stuck in a position where I'm going to have a key unhappy player.
The game is amazing overall, but I've gotten so disgusted with the way that manager promises work that I'm never going to promise a player anything other than first team playing time again. My experience is that I don't have control over whether or not I can keep any other kind of promise.

The complete random timing of stupid two-footed tackles.
I currently have a player injured. he is complaining about lack of first team football to the media
Two days later he got injured in training that would keep him out for several months. Suddenly there was no trace of his unhappiness. His morale was okay, happiness was disappointed to be injured, but optimistic for the future. And when I tried a chat no sign of broken down relationships, so I just asked if he had any advice for potential signings and he was happy to respond! One long term injury and it's like nothing happened!
The amount of times I forget to renew my staffs contracts and then just before the second season begins I realise I don't have any coaches and my players stats have lowered. Or if I am a big club I hate the massive amount of contract negotiations I have to go through to renew all 50,455,417 scout's contracts before they expire
When, most of times, a player is sent off and is unabled to play for 3 games instead of only one. And a player that simulated a foul in FM07 sees a red card instead of a yellow card. And, to make things worse, the player is unabled to play for... 3 games.
moronic assman playing a player who had 20 minutes in a match the previous day.... resulting in a 5 month injury... thanks :P
I do wish my board would handle staff contracts tbh.
when you have green wage budget yet board give you naff all allowance to offer a contract to a player who wants one
Had a backroom advice meeting while I was playing last night.
Assistant manager 1st piece of advice: "Emmanuel Frimpong should be taken off the loan list as I believe he has a role to play in the first team".
Assistant manager 2nd piece of advice: "Emmanuel Frimpong's squad status should be changed from 'backup to the first team' to 'not needed by the club'".
Contradictory much??
I often get players reacting badly to recent manager comment due to the ass man's comments in press conferences.

Patagonian Cavies to be exact, from Patagonia of course. We live in arid grasslands and love munching on plants and grass. We're one of the top five largest rodents but look a lot like a cross between a rabbit and a deer. To escape predators we can jump 6 feet straight in the air and run 35 mph!
We're born precocial like lots of rodents which means we are born with fur, our eyes open, and can walk right away. We can even eat solid foods right away. Another cool thing about cavy babies is that we all live together in a den, our dad digs for us brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces, and nephews all in the same burrow and it doesn't matter which mom shows up to feed us we all eat together!

Blame It (On The T-T-T-T-T-T-T-Twins)
Last night, as the Chicago White Sox opened their last three-game series at their personal house of horrors, the Metrodome, the team was essentially playing for the rest of the season in one night. With the post-season roster deadline kicking in at midnight, it represented teams' last chance to improve their club for the stretch run. The Pale Hose were the epitomy of a bubble team, quickly fading from the AL Central race and needing to win this series to have any realistic hopes of remaining in the conversation.
Good thing that the Twins showed up to play then, huh?! Nick Blackburn (7 IP, 1 ER, 7K) continued his mastery of the Sox, while both Jo-Mo and Kubel went deep for most of the home boys' offense. Can you believe that Mauer (now at 26 dingers) has a shot at 30?! If Albert Pujols is the undisputed king of NL hitters, than Joe Mauer obviously holds that position in the junior circuit.
After the loss, then, the Pale Hosers decided to cut bait, trading Jim Thome and Jon Garland to the LA Dodgers and sending Jose Contreras to the Colorado Rockies. So even if the Twins don't game another game on the Tigers all season, at least we have the satisfaction of knowing that he did our part to knock our fiercest rivals out of it (sounds crass, yes, but I cannot and will not sympathize with a team coached by a nutjob like Ozzie Guillen).
-Wild prediction of the day: The Tampa Bay Rays will win the Wild Card in the AL.
-Speaking of the Rays, their big slugger Carlos Pena, quite remarkably, has more home runs than singles this season. Baseball Tonight continues to chart his progress, and it would be funny to see him finish that way. I believe Mark McGwire did that in his 70-homer season, if I'm not mistaken (or at least was close).
Preview (66-65, 2nd, 3.5 GB DET): John Danks (12-8, 3.82) vs. Jeff Manship (0-0, 5.14). Manship starting a game scares me a bit, but at least he won't have Big Thome to deal with anymore!

Princeton Falls to No. 13 Quinnipiac, 3-1
HAMDEN, Conn. (12/7/12) - No. 13 Quinnipiac handed Princeton just its second ECAC Hockey loss in a 3-1 game on Friday, Dec. 7 at TD Bank Sports Center in the first game in a home-and-home series.
The Bobcats took a 2-0 lead in the first period, but Princeton cut the lead to one in the second. Penalty trouble in the third wouldn't allow the Tigers to inch closer, and Quinnipiac sealed the win with an empty-net goal in the waning seconds.
Jeremy Langlois scored an unassisted goal at 5:34, on Quinnipiac's first shot on goal. Langlois stripped the puck from a Princeton defender in the left corner and walked in to put the puck between netminder Mike Condon and the right pipe.
Russell Goodman who just missed scoring early in the period snuck his second chance by Condon to help give his team a 2-0 lead at the end of the first period. The goal came with 58.1 seconds left on the clock. Clay Harvey got the puck on the left side and Condon had to scoot back on the ice to make the pad save. Harvey recollected the puck and shifted it into the slot where Goodwin found room on the right side.
Princeton cut its deficit to one with a goal at 15:29 of the second, the only goal of the period. Junior Eric Carlson scored his second goal of the year and second in as many games with a wrist shot from the point in front of the Tigers' bench. Sophomore Tom Kroshus earned the assist. Kroshus has three points in the last two games.
The Tigers wouldn't be able to get themselves in the game after receiving two five-minute majors and two game misconducts in the third period. The first was on junior James Kerr after a hit on Zach Tolkinen four minutes into the period. The Tigers penalty kill was excellent over the next five minutes, holding the Bobcats to just four shots, three in succession.
With less than five minutes left Condon made his first of two spectacular saves, flying from the right side of the goal to the left to deny Connor Jones on the doorstep. Condon would make another beauty stuffing Matthew Peca on a breakaway two minutes later.
Carlson picked up a major and a misconduct at 18:21 on a hit from behind. A retailiation hit by Kellen Jones sent him to the box for two minutes.
Princeton pulled Condon after the next face off in favor of the extra skater. Quinnipiac had a clear bump off the right post but its next effort went into the empty net as it took a 3-1 lead with 39 seconds left.
Condon finished the game with 24 saves in the loss for Princeton. Eric Hartzell stopped 11 on the other end as Quinnipiac outshot Princeton 27-12.
Both teams finished 0 for 4 on the power play.
Princeton is now 3-5-3 overall and 2-2-3 in the ECAC. Quinnipiac improves to 11-3-2 overall and 7-0 in the league.
The teams face off again tomorrow afternoon, Dec. 8 at 4 p.m., at Hobey Baker Rink.

i can agree with this.

Miss Raichu, you're my hero.
I put no stock in religion. By the word religion I have seen the lunacy of fanatics of every denomination be called the will of god. I have seen too much religion in the eyes of too many murderers. Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. What God desires is here [points to head] and here [points to heart] and what you decide to do every day, you will be a good man - or not.
If you stop bumping it up, it'll probably slowly die.

Lance. I mean, he has pink hair and he raises dragons, plus, you know, he's the strongest Pokèmon trainer in the world of Pokèmon and everything... That's different.
Ash is the best...he is really confident in his abilities as a trainer and his pokemon trust him...therefore bettering his chances of winning. And another thing is he and his cool pikachu are the two actual main characters that never leave the series.
Firestorm made me realize that if I quit and walk away, that's just lying down and making it easier to be pushed around....
Now I'm back to finish the stories and poetry I started...thanks Jess!:happysad:
And mrs.ashketchum, i dont love Ash, cos i AM a boy and thatd make me gay

Gary. Ash got lucky.
"What luck for rulers that men do not think." ~Adolf Hitler
"you are gay furthermore you like sex with men" ~god
One of the Seven Deadly Sins of PD: Femme Greed
Reason: AT first she wasn't... good, but after a few contests she's gotten stronger. Also she tied with Ash in a contest and also was the runner up in the Wallace cup. (Plus she's hot :3 )
My second choice would have to be Brock, he's like a Guru.

International Coalition for Sustainable Production and Consumption (ICSPAC)
- Date submitted: 1 Nov 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: International Coalition for Sustainable Production and Consumption (ICSPAC)
- Submission Document: Not available
General Contenta) What are the expectations for the outcome of Rio+20, and what are the concrete proposals in this regard, including views on a possible structure of the Outcome document? [Note: ICSPAC is a voluntary online community of individuals and organizations interested and involved in promoting sustainable production and consumption values, practices, and policies. The views expressed in the following emerged from various internal discussions but do not necessarily reflect all members of this community.]
It is important that the Rio+20 Outcome document clarify the role of sustainable consumption and production in the green economy. Given that achieving SCP was agreed at the World Summit on Sustainable Development to be one of the three overarching objectives of sustainable development, it is therefore important to show how the ?green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication? contributes to that overarching SCP objective as well as how SCP initiatives can implement the transition to green economies.
b) What are the comments, if any, on existing proposals: e.g., a green economy roadmap, framework for action, sustainable development goals, a revitalized global partnership for sustainable development, or others? One existing proposal which is not yet officially associated with Rio+20 is the Ten Year Framework of Programs (10YFP) in support of regional and national SCP initiatives. This proposal, agreed to by the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) in 2002 needs to be integrated into the Rio+20 agenda and outcomes.
Another important but less known proposal is for a global research program on sustainable production and consumption, which could help advance knowledge and exchange among countries and regions in addressing the drivers of unsustainable development as well as identifying and assessing new and old methods and strategies for enhancing sustainability from the global to the local.
c) What are the views on implementation and on how to close the implementation gap, which relevant actors are envisaged as being involved (Governments, specific Major Groups, UN system, IFIs, etc.); There are thousands of such initiatives operating within each region, from national government programs to local neighborhood cooperative efforts ? all addressing a different element of the production/consumption system and working to make it sustainable. These initiatives, organizations and networks need the support and programs promised by the WSSD in 2002. These groups are still waiting for that support. Rio+20 can address their needs by making the 10YFP one of its outcomes, finally implementing the promise made a decade ago. With the overall Rio+20 theme of ?renewal of commitment to sustainable development,? it is essential that the conference honor and implement such earlier commitments.
d) What specific cooperation mechanisms, partnership arrangements or other implementation tools are envisaged and what is the relevant time frame for the proposed decisions to be reached and actions to be implemented? One voluntary partnership that emerged during preparations for the Johanessburg Summit and which continues to evolve is the International Coalition for Sustainable Development, which is also a UN Partnership. This is a multi-stakeholder global community of individuals and organizations promoting the values, practices and policies of sustainable consumption and production. Support from and engagement by such communities of sustainability advocates is critical to the transition to sustainable or green economies.
Specific Elementsa) Objective of the Conference: To secure renewed political commitment for sustainable development, assessing the progress to date and remaining gaps in the implementation of the outcomes of the major summits on sustainable development and addressing new and emerging challenges. Contributions could include possible sectoral priorities (e.g., (e.g., energy, food security and sustainable agriculture, technology transfer, water, oceans, sustainable urbanization, sustainable consumption and production, natural disaster preparedness and climate change adaptation, biodiversity, etc.) and sectoral initiatives that contribute to integrate the three pillars of sustainable development could be launched and endorsed at Rio+20. The 2002 WSSD diagnosis of the ?Implementation gap? was that it was not only a ?lack of political will? in following through on the commitments of the Rio Declaration and Agenda 21, but global consumption and production patterns outpacing improvements in energy and materials efficiency, public environmental awareness, and innovation.
Achieving sustainable consumption and production was thus agreed to be one of the three ?overarching objectives of sustainable development? in addition to eradicating poverty and protecting natural resources. Reaching this SCP objective required a strategy to identify and address the causes and reverse these worsening trends of the previous decade. In response, the 10-Year Framework of Programs was agreed by WSSD delegates to support the various national and regional initiative targeting these underlying consumption/ production drivers.
The 10YFP remains one of the prominent gaps in Implementation. Rio+20's adoption of the 10YFP and the promotion of programs supporting regional and national SCP/green economy initiatives would be an important indicator of nations renewed commitment to achieving this overarching and essential objective of sustainable development.
b) Green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication: views regarding how green economy can be a means to achieve sustainable development in its three dimensions, and poverty eradication; what is its potential added value; experience to date, including what has worked and how to build upon success, what are the challenges and opportunities and how to address the challenges and seize opportunities, and possible elements of an agreement in outcome document on a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication At CSD19, the concept of ?green economy? was criticized by the G77/China and others for not being clearly defined and possibly being used to give developed countries an unfair economic advantage over developing countries. Others have voiced concern that the proposals for green economy do not go far enough, that they do not adequately address the need for more systemic changes in the economy. Here is where the ideas and efforts of those actively working to achieve sustainable production and consumption and thus sustainable economies offer valuable insights and experience in the practical work of making the economy more sustainable, moving beyond efficiency to sufficiency, on improving the well-being of everyone. These initiatives need the world?s support.
c) Institutional framework for sustainable development: Priorities and proposals for strengthening individual pillars of sustainable development, as well as those for strengthening integration of the three pillars, at multiple levels; local, national, regional and international. Given that achieving SCP is one of the overarching objectives of sustainable development, the institutional Framework for Sustainable Development should incorporate the Institutional structure mandated by the WSSD in 2002 to achieve the SCP objective. This is the 10-Year Framework of Programs (10YFP) to support national and regional initiatives promoting sustainable consumption and production. Although the ideas for this framework were successfully negotiated and agreed at the 19th Session of CSD, they have yet to be implemented. The UN Conference on Sustainable Development has a timely opportunity to adopt this 10YFP as one of the positive constructive institutional outcomes for moving the sustainable development agenda forward.
Considering that many of the national and regional green economy initiatives proposed or already active also contribute to a particular area of sustainable consumption and/or production, the 10YFP represents an important new institutional structure committed to encouraging, promoting and providing critical support to those green economy/SCP initiatives. This could easily be one of the important and tangible outcomes, especially if attention is directed to the needs of developing countries and communities through global and regional programs mandated to support their initiatives. National and regional green economy/SCP initiatives obviously need support from ?green investment,? but they also need research, indicators and information on trends, technologies, consumer behavior, as well as technical assistance, publicity, and other types of support which could be provided through global, regional and national framework activities over the next decade.
d) Any proposals for refinement of the two themes. Recall that Resolution 64/236 describes the focus of the Conference: "The focus of the Conference will include the following themes to be discussed and refined during the preparatory process: a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication and the institutional framework for sustainable development".

14 White Sox ejected
On this date in a Red Sox-White Sox game, 14 White Sox are ejected for jeering umpire Red Jones.
"Jones wasn't calling too good and they got to hollering at him. He didn't learn who was hollering at him. I was at the end of the bench, and he saw me open my mouth, so he threw me out. I just went in and sat down, and here come the rest of them." - Ralph Hodgin on his only career ejection

After admiring a collection of nude drawings above the bed in a cottage we once rented on Cape Cod, my husband and I decided to acquire some for our own art collection, to add to the handful that we had collected over the years. I've recently snapped up a few on eBay; the prices are great. You can get lovely sketches for very little money—under $20 even. They look beautiful with simple frames or ornate ones, in groups or on their own.
