I received the package May 21, 2012. What was alarming, was the fact that box was the orginal box for the TV. Not an actual box used for shipping. It was torn up, bent, and ripped apart at some areas. I have pictures as well showing this. When I saw this, I immediatly opened the package, to find that there was NOTHING but two pieces of styrofoam protecting the tv. [continued below]....
The next day, I called Tiger Direct, already upset but open to some sort of agreement or compromise with Tiger Direct to fix my problem and still be a satisfied customer. What I experienced was a complete opposite.
The customer service rep I spoke with, had no sympathy for my situation at all. I explained to him that obviously it happened during shipping, but it wasn't hurting Tiger Direct, because the carrier would have had to pay for the damages to see the tv. translating to Tiger Direct making not one but TWO TV sales. Leaving me still without a product I had paid for almost two weeks ago, and without the money I used to purchase it.
After explaining my concerns to the representative, he put me on hold for about 3 minutes. Upon returning, he told me that they could give me $10 off. That almost made me lose it. Here I am spending around $500 for a TV and all they could do, was give me $10 for having to wait over a month to receive a TV I already paid for.
I asked him what he thought about that, and if he was me what he would feel like. He didn't respond just put me on hold for another 3 minutes and came back and said we can double it and give you $20 off of your TV. At this point, I was just too upset to think clearly, so I accepted the offer and told him that I wanted this to be done quickly and a new TV sent as soon as possible.
Two weeks go by, and I have heard nothing from Tiger Direct about getting a new TV. I called them today June 9, 2012, spoke with a representative about my concerns, and then was put on a 5 minute hold, to find out they haven't even shipped the new TV to me yet. Translation, I would have to wait ANOTHER 10 days before I would receive my TV.
I also inquired about my refund of $20 as to when I would receive that. She told me that it wasn't a refund it was a GIFT CARD! Unbelieveable!!! They actually expected me to want to spend more money on their site after all of this? I told her that I was told it was supposed to be a refund. She told me she could forward that along but would not have "guaranteed" results of being a refund.
Fed up with this disgraceful lack of empathy, and horrid customer service, I asked for a refund. I was told it would take 3-5 business days for me to receive my money back. I guess they didn't really care about my purchase because they did not offer anything to make up for my very reasonable concerns with this transaction.
If you have read this, do yourself a favor, save your time, and your money DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM TIGER DIRECT!!!

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - The Florida Highway Patrol has nearly 200 vacant trooper jobs statewide, and some are worried that it could be a problem for public safety.
Concerns were raised after the deadly 70-vehicle pile-up on Interstate 4 in Polk County on January 9th. Only two troopers were patrolling Polk County when the early morning accidents occurred in heavy fog, killing five people.
Colonel John Czernis says it wasn't staffing but weather and speeding drivers that caused the accidents. He says the Florida Department of Transportation placed warning signs up in the area, and FHP patrolled it for much of the night without seeing any problems.
Czernis acknowledged that stabilizing the work force and getting better pay for his 1,600 officers is his top priority.
The FHP has 186 trooper vacancies statewide. Base pay for new troopers is $33,977, according to FHP, which is lower than many other police agencies in Florida.

The Internal Revenue Service's rules for 401(k) tax-deferred, employer-sponsored retirement plans set maximum annual limits on the amount that you can contribute to these plans. The limits apply collectively to all your 401(k) plans, not to each plan individually. If you exceed 401(k) contribution limits, you should take steps to come back into compliance.
Contribution Limits
For 2012, the annual limit on elective tax-deferred employee 401(k) contributions waS $17,000 for taxpayers under age 50. Those 50 or older could contribute an additional $5,500, bringing their limit up to $22,500. When you have only one 401(k) plan, the plan administrator will tell you to stop contributions when you reach the limit. But because the contribution limit applies collectively to all your 401(k) plans, it's possible to over-contribute when you have plans with multiple employers or multiple plans with the same employer.
Taxation Doubled
If you don't take action to correct the excess contribution situation, you will be taxed twice on the money. An excess contribution is not tax-deferred, so it will be taxed in the year it is contributed and taxed again when you withdraw it from the 401(k) during retirement. If you discover you have put too much into your 401(k), contact your employer or plan administrator to have the excess returned to you.
Action Deadline
You must request return of excess contributions in time to have the money paid back to you by April 15 of the year following the year in which you made the excess contribution. For example, if you contribute too much to your 401(k) in 2012, you must request that the excess be returned to you by April 15, 2013. The plan administrator also will return any earnings on the excess contribution. If you have multiple 401(k) plans, you can retrieve the total of your excess contributions from one plan and leave the others untouched.
Tax Consequences
In the 2012 contribution example, if you withdraw an excess contribution by April 15, 2013, you add that amount to your other taxable 2012 income. But the earnings on the excess contribution become part of your taxable 2013 income. This "corrective distribution" and related earnings will be reported to you and the IRS on Form 1099-R. While you will owe income tax on the corrective distribution and related earnings, they won't be subject to the 10 percent penalty on early 401(k)withdrawals.

Described as the most technically innovative Volkswagen ever created, the 2011 Touareg makes use of many modifications to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.
The exterior design remains familiar but dimensions have changed 4.3 cm longer, 2.0 cm lower, and has a 4.0 cm longer wheelbase – width remains unchanged. Design details include a new corporate face grille, a reshaped profile, and distinctive taillights.
Inside, the cabin has higher quality materials, more comfortable seats, and additional rear leg room. The rear seats can be folded down via a press of a button to free up 1,642 liters of cargo space (it has 580 liters of space with seats up). Other equipment includes a standard 6.5 inch touch-screen, a 6-disc CD changer, an available GPS navigation system (with an 8-inch touch-screen), and a variety of different trims.
Weighing in at 208 kilograms less than the outgoing model, the 2011 Touareg offers a choice of FSI, TDI, TSI, and Hybrid engines. The V8 petrol, V10 TDI, and W12 engines are no longer offered.
The Touareg Hybrid is motivated by a supercharged V6 TSI petrol engine that produces 245 kW and an electric motor with 34 kW. With a combined output of 279 kW and 580 Nm of torque, the Hybrid can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 6.5 seconds and push on to a top speed of 240 km/h. Combined fuel consumption is rated at 8.2 L/100 km, while CO2 emissions come in at 193 g/km. The hybrid can also drive up to 50 km/h in pure electric mode.
The 3.6-liter V6 FSI has 206 kW of power and 360 Nm of torque. It drinks 9.9 L/100 km, and has a CO2 emission rating of 236 g/km.
On the diesel side Volkswagen offers two TDI engines. The V6 TDI cranks out 176 kW and 550 Nm of torque. It consumes 7.4 l/100 km. On the other hand, the new 4.2-liter V8 TDI has 250 kW and a whopping 800 Nm of torque. Fuel consumption is rated at 9.1 L/100 km.
The engines send power through two all-wheel drive systems. The base 4Motion version has a Torsen limited-slip differential and an off-road driving program. If that isn't enough for your off-road adventures, the V6 TDI offers an available 4XMOTION all-wheel drive system. It allows the Touareg to climb grades of up to 45 degrees thanks to reduction gearing, locking differentials (center and rear), and a rotary terrain switch (which offers five modes – On-Road, Off-Road, Low, centre differential lock, and rear differential lock).
The new Touareg will start arriving in dealerships globally from April.

Solutions for Chapter 28 Problem 3RQ
During storage of compressed air in supply tank, there is a possibility of working pressure exceeding maximum allowable pressure of 150 psi. To ensure that pressure does not exceed further, safety pressure relief valve is fitted. This safety pressure relief valve is known as pop-off valve. Generally, pumping is cut-out by governor after reaching a pressure of 120 psi. In failure of governor cut-out, this relief valve relieves the pressure from the supply tank.
Therefore, the correct option is - it relieves pressure from the supply tank in the event of governor cut- out failure.

You'll Never Guess What Cara Delevingne Calls Her Lady Garden
Cara Delevingne has built a career (and a massive social media following) out of being unflaggingly authentic. Throughout her time in the spotlight, she's used her celebrity status to draw attention to difficult topics — from mental health to sexual orientation to animal rights — with candor and insight. Now, with Gynecological Cancer Awareness month right around the corner, Cara is encouraging women to talk more openly about vaginal health.
[ These Celebrities Want You to Tend to Your Lady Garden (for a Good Cause) ]
The Suicide Squad actress is the new face of Lady Garden, a UK-based campaign run by a group of women, including her sister, Chloe, who founded the Gynecological Cancer Fund after experiencing a "bit of a scare with a pre-cancerous cell." (The Delevingne power siblings could give the Olsens and Kardashians a serious run for their money.)
"She was very brave and spoke about it. It takes a lot of courage to talk about things like this. I think women need to be braver about it because otherwise people can be affected," Cara explains in the campaign's promo video. (more…)

Constant-collateral pyramiding trading strategies in futures markets
This paper introduces constant-collateral pyramiding trading strategies, which can be implemented in the futures markets. For these strategies, expressions are derived for effective constraints on the number of futures contracts in the trader's portfolio and on the trader's wealth. Implications of the results are drawn regarding the degree of pyramiding adopted by a subgroup of noise traders who underestimate the probability of receiving a margin call when they engage in positive feedback strategies. Suggestions are made regarding how market regulators can use margin requirements to encourage these traders to adopt less aggressive pyramiding strategies.

The process of buying or selling a self-storage facility has become more rigorous as markets have become more competitive and changes in the economy impact property value. To know the accuracy of a self-storage appraisal, a self-storage owner should have a clear understanding of facility value and the effect of capitalization (cap) rates. A buyer should complete a comprehensive due-diligence process to know if an investment is financially sound.

Chemistry of Secondary Polyphenols Produced during Processing of Tea and Selected Foods

AbstractThis review will discuss recent progress in the chemistry of secondary polyphenols produced during food processing. The production mechanism of the secondary polyphenols in black tea, whisky, cinnamon, and persimmon fruits will be introduced. In the process of black tea production, tea leaf catechins are enzymatically oxidized to yield a complex mixture of oxidation products, including theaflavins and thearubigins. Despite the importance of the beverage, most of the chemical constituents have not yet been confirmed due to the complexity of the mixture. However, the reaction mechanisms at the initial stages of catechin oxidation are explained by simple quinone–phenol coupling reactions. In vitro model experiments indicated the presence of interesting regio- and stereoselective reactions. Recent results on the reaction mechanisms will be introduced. During the aging of whisky in oak wood barrels, ellagitannins originating from oak wood are oxidized and react with ethanol to give characteristic secondary ellagitannins. The major part of the cinnamon procyanidins is polymerized by copolymerization with cinnamaldehyde. In addition, anthocyanidin structural units are generated in the polymer molecules by oxidation which accounts for the reddish coloration of the cinnamon extract. This reaction is related to the insolubilization of proanthocyanidins in persimmon fruits by condensation with acetaldehyde. In addition to oxidation, the reaction of polyphenols with aldehydes may be important in food processing.

Also, there is nothing here about anyone having access to any ones files or data (encrypted or otherwise). Just procedures which would allow one access to there own account, this would be akin to an automated password reset.

Proud to Serve
When a To-Go Order Came from Marines in Afghanistan, N.Y.C. Chef Sara Jenkins Filled It with 300 Free Sandwiches
Porchetta's website clearly notes its delivery zone: a 26-block area serviced by bicycle. But after chef-owner Sara Jenkins confirmed that this message from 6,900 miles away wasn't a prank, she wrote, "Love to." Moreover, there would be no charge, thanks to donations from purveyors Niman Ranch (426 lbs. of pork) and Sullivan St. Bakery (350 ciabatta rolls) and free shipping by DHL.
Afghan law prohibiting the sale of pork (in deference to Muslim belief) doesn't apply to U.S. bases. But re-creating hot, crispy sandwiches in a remote desert raised other challenges. Jenkins, 44, roasted, froze and vacuum-sealed the pork and packed it in boxes with frozen rolls and reheating instructions. "I was worried that they'd get this big stinky mess," she says. But after stops in Germany and Bahrain, the shipment arrived five days later, and Bergmann surprised his squadron with, he says, "the best meal they had had in 11 months." Soon, Jenkins' e-mail box filled with thanks from the troops. "Awesome!" wrote one, Maj. Gerald Cummings. "You brightened our day, taught our taste buds a culinary lesson and raised our pride in our country." Jenkins deflects the praise: "It made me feel good" to provide "a little taste of home."

Poem for Dudley
So my old Basset of 16 years was laid to rest and I wrote this poem more to comfort me than anything else. By writing it helped me "cry it out" and expel the pain of losing him while remembering all the good times we had and what a great companion he was to me. Anyway figured I'd share.
Now I lay me down to sleep
The tears from flowing I cannot keep.
Sorrow fills a barren space
As I close my eyes and see your face.
Ive lost my Dudley, my best friend
But he was spirited until the end.
Hanging close while I cut the grass
Yet slow to move for the mowers pass.
Garden watering and coffee with my guy;
A summer tradition as my buddy lay nearby.
It was just a week ago, so its difficult to believe
That youve been struck so quickly by this disease.
With droopy eyes, crooked feet, and long ears
Youve anxiously greeted me throughout the years.
Now memories they are that Ill hold dear
For within my heart you are forever near.
Doc Herzog being a compassionate man
Gave us the bad news as best anyone can.
Your liver has failed you my dear old boy
Only memories will remain to bring us joy.
As I lay you in my lap that final night
In the grass in the sun where you found such delight.
I stroked your head of gray and ears so long
And told you of my love so strong.
We were there until the end; I kissed you lightly,
Said goodbye, and hugged you tightly.
I know that you went quietly into a big sleep
Of that I remind myself as I start to weep.
As weeks go by so will signs that you were here;
Water bowls gone and little tufts of shed hair.
Time will pass quickly since you were last alive
So we planted a flower thatll continue thrive.
Fond memories will stir of good ole times I assume
For years from now it will continue to bloom.
I keep expecting to see you round every corner
The bathmat, the stairway, the hallway runner.
Theres more room on the couch now at dinner time
And youre not there in the morn for the alarm clock chime.
Yes, time had come to say goodbye
But in my heart you will never die.
For a funny memory replays within my mind
Youre running fast through the grass from behind.
With tongue swinging low in the heat of the day
And your long floppy ears bounce and sway.
Searching to find me wherever I am
You make me laugh out loud. You are such a ham.
That's a beautiful poem; I'm so sorry for the loss of your buddy. :pout:
Awww that poem made me wanna cry :pout: I am so sorry about Dudley! :hug: I bet he had a good life, and a long one too. Just be glad that you got the chance to be his friend.
Aw- so sorry- we have 2 bassets- (had 3 til last year) and they are the sweetest pals ever. Good for you for writing about it. Dudley will never be forgotton, and is up there in pet heaven waiting for you! hugs
What a sweet poem. I'm sorry about Dudley. :pout:

PROVIDENCE, R.I. � No one was injured in a fire that started in the basement of a 3�-story building at 1055-1057 Eddy Street at 12:30 p.m. Thursday, Deputy Assistant Fire Chief Joseph R. Desmarais said.
The tenants who were home got out themselves, Desmarais said. In all, eight adults and nine children resided there, he said, and will need other accommodations. The Red Cross was called on their behalf.
There was moderate fire damage to the basement and first floor, Desmarais said. The cause of the fire, which was under control in about 25 minutes, is under investigation, he said.

Preston manager Graham Westley has branded Craig Morgan's decision to reject a move away from Deepdale as "bizarre".
Morgan is one of three senior players currently available for transfer at North End alongside Iain Hume and Keammar Daley.
Westley confirmed each of the trio has attracted interest from other clubs, but defender Morgan is the only one to turn down a concrete offer from an unnamed side.
"There's been interest in each of the three lads," Westley said. "The situation with each of them, as you come to the end of the transfer window, evolves by the day.
"Morgan has turned down a move, which is particularly bizarre for a player that decided in the first place he didn't want to be a part of what's going on here. He doesn't want to be a part of it, doesn't want to play. A difficult one to get your head around.
"Humey, Keammar, yes there's been interest, there's been discussions and we'll see how those things unfold."
- Craig Morgan

How to launch a new business in three months
Published January 8, 2012 by Gillian Hunter
"NewCo" Project Timeline > Three months from start to finish
It has been quite a week for aardmaan. Besides celebrating our tenth year in business, we also celebrated the launch of a major player in the SAP GRC space. This is the story of that strategic rebrand - and how it took us just three months from initial brief to spectacular launch.
SeventyThree Design contacted us in September about a potential client project. We pitched against two other agencies, and won the contract on 6 October. The project was to create a new brand identity for two leading consultancy players in the SAP GRC space who were merging. They wanted a new web landing page, and material for internal and external launch.
On the 4th November, we presented to the boards of the two companies - one Dutch and the other British. Our proposal included a brand new company name. Don't think they thought we'd come up with a brand name everyone would liked, but the first response was: "That's brilliant! Where did that come from? Pure genius!" Now the hard work began, building on the strategy work we did prior to the board meeting and creating the content and design elements.
On 6th of January, as planned, the company announced itself to the world! It was an very exciting week and an exhilarating 3 months. We delivered more than expected > a complete new website that is market focused, new service portfolio, a reference library, customer information packs, new corporate brochure, internal and external presentations, corporate guidelines, corporate templates, a calendar and more.
My twitter feed tells the story >
The name of the new company, we can now reveal is Integrc (pronounced In-te-gri-see). Delighted that domain name was available! In all its variations too. So appropriate to the market, the company and their values!
Integrc goes live > 6th January 2012
Launch day finally arrived and the feedback from the client was phenomenal. Everyone they had spoken to loved the name: their employees, clients, partners and major stakeholders too. The website: www.integrc.com went live - on schedule.
"Upfront we realized it would be a very challenging target to realize, but you did make it! We have a terrific new name, a splendid looking website with good content, logo ... thank you for giving us a wonderful start to our journey."
And, CEO of Hallam thinks so too ... great to get the recognition. Don't ask for references near often enough (note to self)
This couldn't have been done without teamwork - so thanks to Vicki of SeventyThree Design for getting me involved and the rest of the dream team for pulling this off > @_sixpm @robthedog and @73design - and of course our amazing client, Integrc > couldn't have done it without you! Loved every minute of it!
Too busy to celebrate our birthday?

It is our tenth birthday this week! We opened the doors for business the first week of January 2002. Those ten years have flown - and the tenth anniversary sort of snuck up on us! We've been so busy with projects for clients that we put our own celebrations on the back-burner!

Just a thought
Published October 28, 2011 by Gillian Hunter
Who do you really think drives your business success? Is it your direct paying customers? Or their customers? The people who actually use your product or service.
So, who do you focus on? Where do you put all your effort? Pleasing the customer or creating something that users will rave about? It's simple really, if you don't excite users, your customers (the guys who sign the cheques) won't get excited either. Users drive sales. Customers only buy because they see there is a ready market - and they're onto a sure thing. They're only really interested in the bottom line and making a good profit. If users aren't going mad about your product or service - where's the incentive?
So, how do you treat the users of your products and services? Do you engage them? Talk to them? Or, ignore them?

So I went to their website (https://www.buymagicmesh.com), did some quick reading over what was on the front page (more advertisement for themselves) then clicked the "buy now" button. Next page had me put in my card information and then told me there was a 7.95$ P&H fee, so figured sure, still not that bad, I'll still go with it.
What followed though was five or so pages of trying to sell me more stuff, I had to carefully click my way through the pages to make sure I didn't accidently buy more then what I was looking for until suddenly, TADA! "Purchase is complete". No warning, no reviewing my order, just, done. And what was more, my total came out to almost 40$. P&S ended up not being the 7.95$ I saw but 16$.
Pissed me off so much. No way to go back. And if I want a 'refund' I still have to pay the P&S and will only get my 19.95$ back. Such a scam.

Another win
Any comments from the anti-Rafa brigade?
How many months off did Blackburn have leading into this game?
What other excuses can you come up with this time to not congratulate Rafa on engineering another victory and keeping us in the hunt?
Well done lads, a battling win against a spiteful team.
Why is diouf still alowed to set foot on a professional football field? He is a total pillock.
I noticed that Gerard did in fact play midfield today, where he rightfully belongs and we looked a bit more creative for it.
Still yet to be impressed by Maxi and would rather have Benny out on the right than him.
PS: I see the SAF factor scared the pants off Dowd and he handed the CC to Utd when they should never have been allowed to get a sniff in after that Vidic foul. Best defender in the EPL? Not anymore.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Dave, Gerrard picked the ball up in the centre circle quickly played an intricate one two with Kuyt, fed the ball to Benayoun who in return fed it back to Gerrard who finished with real aplomb that wouldnt have happened if Masch and Lucas had been paired together, if you read back through some of my posts regarding Gerrard slotting back to midfield at the side of either Masch or Lucas then you will see not only did I say he was more than adequate for that role but due to his fitness levels and desire to get forward he would also get forward at every opportunity, and this goal just goes to show that ;).
I will give Lucas credit for the pass that lead to the second goal, quick incisive thinking, it's a pity we don't see this very often, hopefully it's a sign on things to come.
P.S we adopted a 4-4-2 formation for the first time in ages so obviously Gerrard would have been given the opportunity to get forward at every given opportunity, pretty pointless having 2 holding midfielders in such a formation.

So what you're telling me is the deep thrusting passes you've been asking Gerrard to provide if he was put back in the center to direct traffic like Alonso used to do, was actually provided by Gerrard, to Gerrard! Not sure what game you were watching mate, but Gerrard scored off an assist from Yossi. In the box I might add, which is where you'd expect him to pop up if he was sitting in the slot behind the striker. So while he did sit in the center, and do a fine job IMO, he obviously had license from the boss to push further forward, which is exactly what he did when he got his goal.
Btw, Torres's goal while assisted by Maxi, might note the long pass that really set up the play was provided by..........wait for it.........none other than.............Lucas. And there I was thinking he could only pass sideways and backwards.
Hope this is not too patronizing, I've been accused of that lately. I'm going after the bleading obvious which can be patronizing, or actually rather annoying to those avoiding the facts so that their world view still holds.

I tell you what he has to be houlliers greatest buy. As i said, value for money wise, he was the greatest foreign buy in the premierleague. After seeing some of our defending I wish he was still here. He is rated the best centre back in the Bundesliga at 34/35!
hear hear on your Sami comment Daniel. When he and carra played I never had the collywobbles about our defence the way I do these days! He was a great buy indeed. Rarely injured, totally consistent, fearless, clean in the tackle, strong and a great servant to LFC.
Wish some of Rafas signings were half as good!
A Yahoo! User Mar 2, 2010 01:18 Flag
Well with regards to significant performances and achievements that stick out I would have to say the 'outs' probably win.
I mean Garcia and his many superb goals, especially the one against juve and the 2 against chelski.
Also, riise setting up gerrard in instanbul.
And big sami is just the best value for money foreign buy there has ever been in the premiership, nevermind just for liverpool.

Been thinking about your post Ajay, and think it's got a major flaw. The problem is its not just another win sitting all on its own, which is how many who still can't bring themselves to giving the manager the slightest bit of credit, view the Blackburn game.
People have made up their minds, fine. But to think your open minded, when you've already you've made up your mind, is a contradiction no matter how you try to spin it. But what I'd hope people look at, is not "Another win" but ask themselves, can we turn this season around?
I know many of the Rafa haters also hate statistics, but numbers while they may not tell the whole picture, also don't lie. Over the last 8 league games, or since New Years, we've taken 15 points out of a possible 24 or 1.87 points per game. Still off the pace of the 2 clubs vying for the title, so nothing to right home about, but still ahead of our main rivals for 4th. (Villa are 10 out of possible 18, or 1.66 per game, City are 14 out of a possible 24, or 1.75 per game, and Spurs are 12 out of a possible 24, or 1.5 per game.
My question is can we get better? And, or will our main rivals step it up a gear also, or are they already in top?
I still think the jury is, and should be out on Rafa, and a decision should not be made until the end of the season. Fine if others would rather make that decision before all the facts are in, but wondering if we do finish in 4th, and on a run that actually makes 4 quite comfortable, despite the minds already being made up, will they afford the gaffer any credit.

More 'emotive' language in there Dave I'm afraid - 'Rafa haters' - 'hate' statistics...although this subject will run and run :-)
Statistics are fine - taking a particular time frame always tells the story in a positive or negative light whatever your side of the fence.
Our points haul by month/possible :
Aug 6/12
Sep 9/9
Oct 3/12
Nov 5/9
Dec 10/18
Jan 8/12
Feb 7/12
...the September total looks good because we beat Hull, Burnley and West Ham (2 at home - 1 away).
August, October, November and December did nothing to set the pulses racing.
You know my stance on Rafa - I think he has turned over a tremendous number of players in an attempt to stumble upon a good squad.
At the risk of incurring the wrath of someone in particular :-)
I will mention some ins/outs :
Reira/Rodriguez - better than Pennant/Garcia?
Skrtel - better than Hyppia ?
N'gog - better than Crouch/Keane ?
Aquilani - better than Alonso ?
Insua - better than Riise ?
Im not saying there were not reasons for the moves - just wondered if they were for changes sake...
And where any of the players giving him a different tactical option.
Lastly, I would say that the jury has been out - in private & in the pubs after the match.
He is on death row. 4th place may be good for the team and the supporters - but it might get him a reprieve too - I hope not.

I'll be fair and agree with you here mate, yes most managers do blame everything and everyone else accept themselves and their team...would be nice to see some humility in football every now and then.
Yes great goal by stevie, started and finished by him. Hopefully a sign of things to come. If he gets put back in that 'hole' though then i doubt we will see it very often as Gerrard wont be deep enough to start moves like that. When have you ever seen lucas or masch create and score a goal like that? Never.
Thats the main thing mate, keeping 'nando fit...lets just hope that he has had a decent rest now and all the injury worries are behind him.
Hi Daniel
I agree with your second para - Rafa does lack grace after games that he loses but, to be fair, he's hardly alone on that score.
Most managers use post-match comments to deflect blame away from the team and create a "us against the world" atmosphere. Step forward SAF, Mr Wenger and the 'Special One' :-)
Was a good goal by Stevie wasn't it. Let's hope him and Nando can stay fit 'til the end of the season eh?
adidasmalmos....interesting and very amusing that soon as u pointed out to dsteer the error of his ways on the Stevie G thing he....disappeared ! lol. Maybe went to wipe all that egg off his bespectacled face eh ?
ADIDASMALMOS..I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever mate that u are far more tactically astute than Benitez as are at least 75% of the posters on this board and probably every other board of a club in EPL.

Man hurt in shooting at Sarasota auto repair
Published: Monday, October 29, 2012 at 12:27 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, October 29, 2012 at 1:14 p.m.
SARASOTA - Police are investigating a shooting that occurred around 11:30 a.m. today, which left one man wounded and expected to recover.
Police were sent to the 2000 block of 13th Street to investigate a shooting at an automotive repair shop.
According to police spokesman Capt. Paul Sutton, "a dispute escalated to a gunshot" at the business at 2070 13th Street.
Sutton said the victim received a "non-life-threatening" wound, and is expected to recover. Additional information, he said, will be forthcoming.
A Sarasota County Fire Department ambulance transported the victim from the scene.
"We have suspect info, are are trying to locate him," Sutton said.
Crime scene technicians ringed the entire business with tape, and photographed evidence in the small parking lot.
A woman who has had a business in the area for more than 20 years, who did not want her name used, said other than the occasional robbery at a nearby bank, this type of violence is uncommon in the neighborhood.

Protection needed
The Mississippi House has let die a proposal by Gov. Phil Bryant that would have eliminated civil service protection for rank-and-file state workers.
Bryant and the Republican leadership in the Mississippi Legislature wanted to take state workers out from under the authority of the state Personnel Board, which provides civil service protection for workers. They argue that tight budget times require more flexibility for agencies to manage their payrolls.
Fortunately, a majority of House members saw the proposal for what it is – an attempt to politicize state agencies right down to the receptionist at the front door. Without civil service protection, workers would be subject to the political whims of each incoming administration.
Rep. Herb Frierson, a Poplarville Republican, decided not to bring the bill up for a vote, saying that he was well short of the number of votes needed to pass it.
The state Senate already had passed legislation that would have taken state workers out from under the board for two years.
About 29,000 of the state's 35,000 employees come under the civil service law. They are the rank-and-file career employees who serve the state, regardless of which party or politician is in power.
All but a handful of states provide civil service protection to keep employees from being hired or fired because of their politics or the lack of it. Civil service helps prevent elected officials from doling out jobs to all their political supporters. It also helps provide a continuity of service.
There is no evidence that the civil service law needs any tinkering. The governor and his political friends appear to be out of touch with Mississippians on this issue.

So...been away a little while. Been focusing on getting kinks straightened out. Things have been going pretty well i would have to say. The other day my husband went out hunting with a woman who hunts with him and his buddies regularly. Her husband is one of these buddies. I didnt mind at all. He was up front about it being a woman...etc. and made sure i didnt mind. When he got home he was talking to his "gf" and she got VERY upset about it. Asked him if he was really hunting, stuff like that. She was extremely jealous over it. I guess later she told him that she didnt like it at all and she wasnt about to share him. Well...i have to share him...and I'M his WIFE. It took us by complete surprise. She has NEVER been jealous. I wonder if its actual jealousy of me? She says no...but where did that come from? How should i take this and how should we handle it if it arises again?

Microsoft has launched a new ad campaign, asking users of Google's cloud email service, Gmail, if they have been 'scroogled'.
The computing giant spearheaded the campaign in December with a Christmas advert highlighting Google's practice of prioritising paid-for results over general ones.
Microsoft is now ramping up its anti-Google rhetoric with a new set of videos, which claim the search giant scans the content of Gmail users' emails to generate targeted ads.
The company has also started a petition against Gmail via its Scroogled.com website, calling on Google to stop using information gleaned from private emails in this way.
This is not the first time Gmail has come under fire from Microsoft: the company criticised the same practice back in 2011 and slammed Google Apps last year.
But for round three, the organisation has taken the opportunity to push its newly-rebranded cloud email service Outlook.com (formerly Hotmail) as an alternative.
"Outlook.com believes your privacy is not for sale," said Stefan Weitz, senior director of online services at Microsoft.
"We believe people should have choice and control over their private email messages, whether they are sharing banking information or pictures of their family or discussing their medical history," he added.
Microsoft has also launched a Facebook page to support the Scroogled campaign, but the reaction to it has been overwhelmingly negative, with many commenters calling the ads "childish".

I don't know the answer to that.
What a beautiful story!
Notre Dame University went ahead with both the honorary degree and the commencement speech for pro-abortion President Barack Obama despite a multiplicity of protests. Seventy Catholic bishops sharply criticized the decision, 360,000 persons signed a petition opposing the invitation, and 1,400 Notre Dame supporters even indicated their intent to cease donating a combined $14 million to the school. Many outraged Catholics have called for the resignation of Father John I. Jenkins, the school's president. They blame him for soiling the schools supposedly unsullied commitment to Catholic beliefs. The truth, however, is that Notre Dame went off course long ago, taken there by its famous former and longtime president, Father Theodore Hesburgh. . .
"The question, then, is how do we work through these conflicts? Is it possible for us to join hands in common effort? As citizens of a vibrant and varied democracy, how do we engage in vigorous debate? How does each of us remain firm in our principles, and fight for what we consider right, without demonizing those with just as strongly held convictions on the other side?" President Barack Obama, Commencement Address at the University (formerly) of Notre Dame.
As sad a sight as it is, having a pro-abort socialist honored at a school built to honor Our Lady, we must realize that the crime committed today is not the arrogant speech of Obama, nor even the heinous duplicity of Fr. Jenkins, the current president of ND. No. As great men recognize that they stand on the shoulders of their predecessors, we must look deeper to see that Obama and Jenkins are but the tip of the iceburgor rather, of the Hesburgh, in this case. For the "honor" of the destruction of Our Lady's school rests squarely on the shoulders of one man, Rev. Theodore Hesburgh, the president of ND from 1952 to 1987. . .
Forty years ago the major Catholic universities in the U.S. decided that the Catholic Church needed to reform her teachings, especially that of sexual morality, to conform to the times, and that they should lead that reform. In 1967, at Land O'Lakes, Wisconsin, they declared their independence from the Church, exchanged the faith of their founders for an evolutionary heresy, proclaimed themselves to be an alternate magisterium, and transferred control from their founding religious orders to secular boards of trustees. Not coincidentally, by these actions they qualified themselves for lucrative financial grants from foundations controlled by leaders of the Culture of Death.
For forty years the true nature and intent of this revolution has been disguised. As a result, generations of Catholic students and graduates have been and are being ill formed and misled in their faith, or have lost it altogether. . .
Thread by me.
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- In a lengthy press conference late Thursday, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs fielded more than 40 questions about where Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor stands on the issue of abortion.
Gibbs reiterated that President Barack Obama did not ask Sotomayor directly about her abortion views but talked enough about legal theory with her that he fells comfortable with her abortion stance.
"In their discussions they talked about the theory of constitutional interpretation, generally including her views on unenumerated rights and the Constitution and the theory of settled law," he said. "He left very comfortable with her interpretation of the Constitution being similar to that of his, though the bulk of the conversation was about her approach to judging."
Gibbs largely ducked questions about Sotomayor's abortion views or her position on a so-called "right to privacy" that has been used to validate abortion. He retreated to his boilerplate language saying that Obama and Sotomayor have essentially the same outlook on the Constitution.
"He felt comfortable that they shared a philosophy on that interpretation ... [of] the living document of the Constitution of the United States of America," he added. . .
Thread by me.
A man who was featured in ads and on TV opposing Washington states assisted suicide Iniative 1000 died of ALS last week.
The group True Compassion Advocates says John Peyton died at home on Thursday, the same day Linda Fleming of Sequim woman became the first person to die under the "Death with Dignity" law.
Eileen Geller, president of True Compassion Advocates, a group that was against the law, called Peyton a hero in life and in death.
He showed us how to live with real dignity and die naturally and comfortably. He literally gave his last breaths to advocate for those at risk for assisted suicide. John Peyton demonstrates what I have seen in thousands of dying patients over 25 years working as a hospice nurse - that no one needs to die in pain or uncomfortably, and that people with life-limiting illnesses need competent, supportive care, not lethal drugs."
Voters approved the assisted suicide law in November by a nearly 60 percent vote, making Washington the second state to have a voter-approved assisted suicide law. It is based on a law adopted by Oregon voters in 1997.
The blood thirsty death mongers have a problem with that. They hate it when anyone is allowed to die naturally and comfortably. There's even one of them complaining about it on that thread.
11 Blessed are ye when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and speak all that is evil against you, untruly, for my sake: 12 Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is very great in heaven. For so they persecuted the prophets that were before you. 13 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is good for nothing any more but to be cast out, and to be trodden on by men. 14 You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house.
-- Matthew 5:10-15
Thread by me.
SOUTH BEND, Indiana, May 22, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Dozens of pro-life protesters arrested at the University of Notre Dame on May 17 for protesting President Obama's commencement speech will be heading back to Indiana in coming weeks from all across the country to stand trial. While Notre Dame had pro-life demonstrators summarily arrested for "criminal trespassing," witnesses say that pro-Obama demonstrators were given free roam of the campus - a fact that the pro-lifers' attorney says violated the Equal Protection clause.
~snip~ Asked whether Notre Dame had been involved in the cases, Dickson said: "the only response I got from Notre Dame was that they weren't interested in sitting down and trying to discuss these matters, that they were ... out of their hands."
While Obama addressed Notre Dame's commencement and received an honorary law degree, over 40 pro-lifers were put in jail or police custody for trespassing. Among those arrested were Norma McCorvey, the "Jane Roe" of Roe vs. Wade, Alan Keyes, and Fr. Norman Weslin, the Founder of Lambs of Christ.
"We will not be silent.
We are your bad conscience.
The White Rose will give you no rest."
As I've said before, by the death mongers' logic Hitler dressing in his finest uniform and committing suicide "died with dignity", but Jesus Christ, beaten, mocked and nailed to the Cross for our sins somehow lacked dignity.
Thanks for linking these threads. I just discovered these articles with a Google search earlier today. I feel like a veil has been lifted. All of a sudden things that didn't make sense are all coming together. Having that historical context is essential in this fight to preserve Truth. God bless.
I had wondered about this for a long time, these three threads exposed exactly how the heretical treachery transpired.
Thanks for the ping!

This might help someone. In March 2003 I sent $55 to Distributor Enterprises in hopes of receiving a catalog-stuffing package. I never received anything. However, over the next few months I continued to receive the same offers in the mail, only the name and address was slightly different each time, yet always from Florida.
Anyways, one night I was bored and just for the heck of it I decided to file a complaint against them with the Attorney General of Florida, I had no expectation of recompensation. I filed the complaint online ant it only took about twenty minutes. After a couple of weeks I got a notice in the mail from the Florida Department of Consumer Affairs that said they were investigating my case. Then guess what? About one month after that I received a check in the mail from Distributor Enterprises for the amount of $55. I was shocked, that was definitely that last thing I expected.
If you have been ripped of by D.E. Enterprises, or whatever else they want to call themselves, then I would urge you do file a complaint with the Attorney General of Florida as well. It only takes twenty minutes or so and you can do it online. I dont know the web address off hand but you can easily find it if you do a search for Attorney General of Florida. You can also go to the Better Business Bureau web site (www.bbb.org) and find a list of names and addresses used by Distributor Enterprises as well as phone numbers, this is helpful information when filing a complaint.
This business will go down for sure if enough people file a formal complaint against them. Then we can stop receiving their worthless junk mail.
