AN UNSEASONAL panto delighted patients and parents at the Oxford Children's Hospital.
The production of Robinson Crusoe was put on by the Starlight Children's Foundation as part of an eight-week tour across the UK.
Eight-year-old Annabelle Glover, from Pitstone, near Tring, was amongst the children in the ward who watched the play. She was rushed into the hospital on Tuesday after breaking her elbow at a gymnastics class.
Annabelle said: "I liked that it was adapted from a film but had lots of random songs with changed lyrics.
"My favourite character was Captain Hogwash because he was really funny and a bit weird."
Mum Catherine added: "Annabelle had an operation and the next day the pantomime came.
"It was nice for her, she really enjoyed it."
The Children's Hospital opened in 2007 at the John Radcliffe site in Headington after a £15m fundraising campaign.

The new "Iran crisis" is such a sickening concoction of stupidity and lies that it almost defies comment. It certainly defies contemplation; even to think about it for thirty seconds is enough to bring on a bout of the dry heaves.
Fortunately, several other writers — with iron-clad innards, no doubt — have boldly waded in and dismantled the deception behind the manufactured hissy fit over Iran's "secret nuclear facility." Jason Ditz at Antiwar.com gives a good overview of the case, which, shucked of all the warmongering frenzy, boils down to this little nubbin of reality:
Iran was building a new nuclear enrichment facility, as it is allowed to do by international treaty. The United States and several other Western countries knew about the facility for years. The facility, which is still months away from completion, is not designed to enrich uranium to weapons grade. Iran is not required to inform the IAEA about any new enrichment plant until six months before the plant goes into operation. There is some quibbling about a codicil that was meant to require Iran to give extra early notice; but this was never ratified by the Iranian legislature, so Iran is in compliance with the Non-Proliferation Treaty which it signed and ratified years ago. (As opposed to such already nuclear armed American allies as India and Israel.) The facility was not secret, it can't build bombs, it is not even finished, and it has no nuclear material in it.
Er, that's it. But upon this paper-thin foundation, a vast fortress of sinister bullshit has been erected by the "progressive" American president and his laughable lapdogs in London and Paris. The long-known presence of a unfinished, non-weaponized, treaty-compliant building is now being presented to the world as a burning reason to impose harsh new sanctions on Iran — harsh to the point of outright acts of war, such as an embargo on shipments of gasoline and other fuel products to Iran. And of course, our coddled, padded, well-protected War Party hacks have seized upon this non-event to bay even louder for oceans of Persian blood to slake their thirsts — or bolster their faltering manhoods, or do whatever it is that the thought of foreigners being slaughtered in great numbers far, far away does for pathetic little wretches like Lindsey Graham, Joe Lieberman and the Whole Sick Crew.
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
As we all know, Barack Obama and his Europuppies meant to make a big show of sword-waggling at the opening of the oh-so-momentous G20 summit in Pittsburgh. Iran beat them to the punch by formally notifying the IAEA of the new facility before the summit, but in any case, the "Iran crisis" served its purpose for the Masters of the West: it covered up the fact that they actually had nothing whatsoever to say about the ostensible theme of the summit — solving the global economic collapse. If the "Iran crisis" had not sucked up all the media oxygen, these "leaders" might have had to explain why they have given trillions of public dollars to the perpetrators of the economic collapse, while letting millions upon millions of their citizens slide into jobless, homeless penury. They would have had to explain why they are taking nothing but the most ineffective, cosmetic measures to rein in the hyper-greed of the oligarchs. And they would have to admit that their only plan for addressing the crisis in the future is to do more of the same: giving the elite even more public money to use as they please.
But all the economic questions were blown away by the ever-sexy talk of war. And of course, all the hoo-rah about a new war also distracted from the White House dithering over the old, failing war in Afghanistan. It's the oldest con trick in the book: distracting the sucker while you pick his pocket.
But unfortunately it's not just a game: the militarists are in deadly earnest about attacking Iran, and year by year, they creep ever closer to their ultimate goal — no matter which party controls the White House. As I wrote here last year:
There is literally nothing that Iran can do – or not do – to divert the American elite's desire to strike at their land and bring it under domination. And apparently there is nothing that anyone in America with any power or a major platform will do to stop it either.
Arthur Silber concludes his damning analysis of our unforced march to new horror with a heartbreaking quote from Martin Luther King Jr. Let it serve as the last word here as well; no one will put it better:
There is such a thing as being too late.... Life often leaves us standing bare, naked, and dejected with lost opportunity.... Over the bleached bones of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words: "Too late."
George W. Bush's innumerable sycopants like to potray him as a down-to-earth man of the people: a man's man, tough and fearless, a good-ole-boy...

Arizona State Sun Devils
ASU President Michael Crow's statement on Steve Patterson leaving for Texas
Below is a statement from Arizona State University President Michael Crow on AD Steve Patterson leaving for Texas.
During his stay at ASU, Steve Patterson has positioned Sun Devil Athletics to continue its forward momentum well into the future. He first became involved with ASU three years ago to put the university's athletic department on a sound financial footing and that is exactly what he has done. I well understand his desire to return to his home state and wish him well at the University of Texas.
ASU's varsity teams rank high across the board in their achievements on the field of competition and in the classroom. With the opportunity to win Pac-12 and national championships and to renovate Sun Devil Stadium, the position of vice president of athletics at ASU will be attractive to a wide range of candidates across the country. We do not intend to slow our forward progress in the least and have appointed Senior Vice President James Rund as interim athletic director while we conduct a national search. Dr. Rund will be capably assisted by a staff of senior associate athletic directors who have been part of the ASU team from 10 to 30 years.

Wadi Rum also known as The Valley of the Moon is a valley cut into the sandstone and granite rock in south Jordan at 60 km (37 mi) to the east of Aqaba. It is the largest wadi in Jordan. The name Rum most likely comes from an Aramaic root meaning 'high' or 'elevated'. To reflect its proper Arabic pronunciation, archaeologists transcribe it as Wadi Ramm. The highest elevation in Wadi Rum is Mount Um Dami at more than 1,800 m (5,900 ft) above sea level. More info in Wikipedia.

John Kenny's Cricket World Cup Blog
John Kenny reports from Brisbane, where Cyclone Marcia interrupted the best-laid plans of our man on duty at the Cricket World Cup.
John Kenny reports from Brisbane, where Cyclone Marcia interrupted the best-laid plans of our man on duty at the Cricket World Cup.
Our intrepid reporter John Kenny reflects on what was in his words "a mighty day" as Ireland got their World Cup campaign off to a winning start against West Indies.
John Kenny is in New Zealand ahead of Ireland's opener against the West Indies in the Cricket World Cup.
In his blog, RTÉ Sport's John Kenny assesses how Irish drivers are performing across various classes on the international stage.
The start of the swimming events in London on Saturday morning could not have thrown up a more exciting race than the men's 400 metres individual medley (IM).
It has probably gone unnoticed but Ireland's Cliff Dempsey, who is making a career in running cars in the British Formula Ford Championship, seems to have an eye for talent.
'A smile spread across his face when Jean Todt, President of the FIA, the world governing body of Motorsport, says that his relationship with Motorsport Ireland hasn't been soured...'
With January now behind us and the motorsport season revving up for 2011, the year promises much for Irish motorsport competitors, writes John Kenny.

The Irish way of 'chancing your arm' does not apply in China or at the Olympics.

I have an 02 Grand Caravan, and every winter, the blower motor resistor goes out and has to be replaced because the fan only works on high.
I replace it, and it'll last about a year and then go out again.
Is the only fix to replace the blower motor? How much would a typical repair shop charge for that? Someone told me that it could be moisture getting where it shouldn't (the blower motor wiring?) and causing the problem. Could this be true, and if so, how can I check that and seal it up?
Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated. I can replace the resistor, but I'm not a mechanic, so detailed suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
Just a guess, but the blower motor might have a shorted armature winding, and if it stops with that winding in contact with the brushes, the next time you turn on the fan the resistor will see a very low impedance path to ground. Et voila, toasted resistor.
No idea how hard it is to replace the blower on that model...

Are you replacing it with a MOPAR part or aftermarket part? Mileage on the vehicle is?
Glenn Beasley Chrysler Tech
I get the part from the dealer, so I assume it is a MOPAR OEM part. The van has about 109k miles on it. It started doing this at about 80K and we replaced the part three times now, about once per winter.

-Debt settlement companies tell people not to open mail from creditors or take their calls. Would you like to know why? So the consumer has no idea what is happening. This is why many of these places also have consumers change their addresses and phone numbers to these places. I have heard some real horror stories about people who signed up with these companies, think everything is going well (Because there are no calls or letters from creditors), next thing they know, they receive notice to show up at court because they are being sued.
-I have learned that three large banks will not deal with these debt settlement companies or law firms. Citi, GE Money, and Bank of America. Depending on the balance, some of these accounts are immediately sent for legal action because debt settlement companies such as Credit Solutions refuses to honor the financial institution's request to cease accepting thier customers.
-FYI...Check the bank that finances your accounts if you've already signed up with CSA to make sure it isn't one of these banks financing your card/loan. I know that Citi finances cards such as Home Depot, Macy's, and many gas cards. GE Money finances accounts such as Wal Mart, Lowes, Sam's, JC Penney.

P500 owner/no experience besides point & click
I am in the Kansas City area and need lessons in how to use a basic slr/dslr camera. I have a P500. NOT what I want now but still can't master it. Any advice besides read the manual? I don't know what RAW is and I'm not afraid to say it. LOL
#1. "RE: P500 owner/no experience besides point & click" | In response to Reply # 0jec6613 Registered since 12th Feb 2013Tue 12-Feb-13 11:40 PM
This is a bit late, but I suppose better late than never.
The Nikon P500 is a point and shoot, the same as any other in many ways: it uses a small sensor and has an integrated lens. What it offers over a basic pocket one, however, is a huge zoom range (it's very nice, as you've probably realized by now) and manual control of the exposure.
There is no raw mode at all on the P500, so you don't need to worry about that for now, but for reference, a raw file takes the raw data straight from the sensor and doesn't process it, allowing the photographer to process it later. JPEG, which is all that yours will produce, is the finished photograph, with some data missing when it's compressed and written to your card. In short: working with raw is like working from a negative in a darkroom, where you can dodge and burn and adjust the photograph to your liking after the fact, while JPEG is like a Polaroid, where it's done when you remove it from the camera and you can only make very limited adjustments, if any, after the fact.
Fortunately though, you do have manual control on your camera - that is, you can adjust ISO, aperture and shutter speed manually. Any beginner photography book can instruct you on how to use your camera's manual modes creatively, as well as instructing you in composition.

Hi, Just noticed your post today and wanted to say I just bought a Nikon P510..and it appears to be great...gotta love the zoom...Check out the book Photographers Guide to the Nikon Coolpix P510 by Alexander White..I bought it from Amazon. It is a very interesting book using ABC language. I also bought a battery and car adapter for my camera..and now I am checkin out an Eye-Fi memory card. Enjoy...Carol Ann..

Souhan: Rio Olympics far more captivating than frightening
You've heard about all of the problems that threatened or hampered the Games. Here are the things that went right:
Dynasty continues: Whalen's 17 points helps Team USA to another gold medal
The U.S. women are one of the most dominant teams in the modern history of sports with 49 consecutive wins and six Olympic golds in a row. They did not play a fourth quarter in Rio with the outcome in doubt.
U.S. men down Serbia, romp to third consecutive Olympic basketball gold
New Wolves coach Tom Thibodeau's supporting vocals help orchestrate gold medal blowout.
Souhan: U.S. women's successes are a barometer of progress
Title IX isn't the sole reason for the Olympic dominance of U.S. women — many gymnasts and swimmers begin winning medals before they graduate from high school — but it has helped grow the ranks of female athletes, and has given girls incentive to pursue sports and athletic scholarships.
U.S. men's basketball team not dominant, but gold within reach
For a team that is undefeated, this tournament has been a relative struggle, but the coaching staff has found player combinations that have led to improved defensive performance.
Souhan: Sacrifices, bonds made U.S. women's basketball journey special
Four Lynx players and their coach earned medals, and the tears and hugs made gold seem like anything but a foregone conclusion.
Core of USA women's basketball sets a lofty standard
Consistent excellence is Team USA's hoops stamp. The Americans go for a sixth consecutive gold medal on Saturday.
U.S. outlasts Spain, holds Rubio scoreless, will play for gold

Rubio gets chance to impress Thibodeau in Rio
Timberwolves guard Ricky Rubio, playing for Spain in the Olympics, will face Tom Thibodeau, an assistant coach for Team USA, in the semifinals.
Whalen's mind focused on gold medal, not Rio distractions
Lindsay Whalen dedicated herself to making the U.S. team. She was thrilled to compete in her first Olympics in London, and is no less thrilled to be on the current team that is dominating in Rio.
Team USA cruises into men's basketball semifinals with win over Argentina
The Americans climbed out of an early hole with their work on defense.
Souhan: Appeal finally granted, Hassan Mead gets his place in 5,000-meter final

U.S. men's basketball barely winning, let alone dominating

Emmanuel Matadi's journey continues in Rio
MSU Mankato track star, with mom watching, made his native country proud
Lynx center Fowles makes U.S. running game even better
What do you get the team that has everything? How about a 6-foot-5 center who comes off the bench and makes like Usain Bolt?
Souhan: Nothing's black and white in Rio (green, yes)
What's different about these Games is the way the "organizers'' react to problems. These are the "Don't Blame It On Rio'' Olympics.
Augustus' 100th game with USA Basketball brings joy, heartache
Seimone Augustus, whose family in Baton Rouge, La., has been displaced by floods, helped the U.S. women set an Olympic record in her 100th game.
Souhan: 'A true warrior,' Usain Bolt wins third 100-meter gold

Usain Bolt finally gets his time to strike in Rio
While Usain Bolt preps for Sunday, Elaine Thompson headlined Saturday.
Souhan: Tale of two Simones expands the Olympic ideal
These Olympics, at least so far, belong to great moments for Simone Biles and Simone Manuel.
Souhan: Phelps wraps up Olympic career after extending his prime
Phelps savors his career swan song, adding a silver to four Rio golds

Souhan: Two games, three points. Rubio terrible in Rio
At a time when his long-term future with the Wolves is in doubt, Ricky Rubio is damaging Spain's chances at a third consecutive gold medal game with the U.S.
Team USA preps for unbeaten Australia
Australia isn't expected to beat the Americans, or necessarily stay close, but in this lopsided competition they are one of a few teams considered to have an outside chance of testing the U.S. when the teams play at 5 p.m. Wednesday.
Souhan: Brazil brings the sport, and the party, in beach volleyball
A sport that seemed like a lark or a departure when it became an official Olympic sport in 1996 has become one of the best shows of every summer Games.

Whether home or abroad, Lynx know all about finishing first
Four Lynx players and one coach take their winning formula from the WNBA to the Rio Olympics.
First step for Minnesotan's bid for cycling medal: Embrace the pain
For cyclist and Mounds View High graduate Kelly Catlin, the harder the knock, the stronger she gets.
Souhan: Are Vikings fans setting themselves up for disappointment?
To believe this Vikings team can become the first to ever improve on a season of 11 or more victories, you have to believe a number of things.
Souhan: From bleachers to bunkers, Hazeltine preps for Ryder Cup
As Minnesota's first Ryder Cup is scheduled for Sept. 30 through Oct. 2, Hazeltine National in Chaska is prepping and primping all over the grounds.
Souhan: Being a hometown guy not an asset for interim GM Antony
Minnesotans don't actually want Minnesotans involved with their sports teams. They want Minnesotans involved with their sports teams who make them feel good.
Souhan: U.S. Bank Stadium upgrades Minneapolis' aura
There might not be another place in the world with so many beautiful arenas located so closely together, not with the addition of U.S. Bank Stadium.
Souhan: Does Pohlad have enough savvy to hire the right GM?
The Twins are in need of a full-time GM now that Terry Ryan has been fired. This is the hire that will define Jim Pohlad's tenure as the Twins' primary boss.
Souhan: 'There is a reason Twins employees wept on Monday'
The Twins' firing of Terry Ryan feels shocking, but only because of his personality and the organization's longstanding commitment to loyalty among its most visible employees.
Souhan: Whether Twins languish or rise rests a lot on Gibson's arm
Of all the starting pitchers capable of taking charge of the Twins rotation, Kyle Gibson has the best pedigree.
Souhan: Retiring Vikings linebacker Greenway remains happy camper
For the eighth consecutive summer, Chad Greenway played touch football, ran drills and participated in other events at a life skills day camp in Hutchinson.
Souhan: Vikings, Turner need to get Patterson the ball
The relationship - or lack thereof - between Norv Turner and Cordarrelle Patterson is a fascinating dynamic.
Souhan: Lessons of NBA free agency aren't lost on Timberwolves
Amid the big moves, Minnesota did well by staying out of the fray.
Souhan: Bloomington guitar-maker's link to Prince passes to Colts owner
Jim Irsay, owner of the Indianapolis Colts, collects famous guitars. Last week, he paid $137,500 in an auction to buy a guitar that at least looks a lot like the yellow version of Prince's "Cloud" guitar.
Souhan: Buddy Ryan's abrupt, unapologetic manner will be missed
In the 1980s and '90s, football fans often couldn't wait to open the morning newspaper to see what Buddy Ryan had said, or done. The blunt former coach died Tuesday.
Souhan: Gifted Byron Buxton deserves Twins' long leash of old
The team should practice patience with their top prospect, just like they did with Torii Hunter.
Souhan: Rubio hasn't proven worthy of leading Wolves' resurgence
Tom Thibodeau's selection of Kris Dunn means he doesn't want to rely on a point guard who never seemed to be as good as he was projected to be, and who never seemed to elevate his team.
Souhan: Thibodeau's first Wolves draft pick eschews obvious for intriguing
Oklahoma's Buddy Hield was the safe, even obvious, pick. Kentucky's Jamal Murray was the safe upside pick. Kris Dunn was a less obvious fit but that doesn't mean he wasn't the right guy.
Souhan: Johnson's Open victory a good sign for Americans at Hazeltine
Johnson's major breakthrough at Oakmont is a wonderful sign for the United States' chances of a rare Ryder Cup victory.
Souhan: Take your stroke, USGA, but Open title is all Johnson's
Dustin Johnson is an aloof golfer who oozes athletic arrogance and married the daughter of a hockey legend. Sunday at the U.S. Open, Johnson's calm and the USGA's inanity actually made him a man of the people.
Lowry upset about final-round Open collapse
If the USGA hadn't commanded so much unwanted attention, the 2016 U.S. Open could have been remembered for how poorly Shane Lowry played on Sunday.
Souhan: Long day at U.S. Open leaves Lowry ahead of many lurkers
If Shane Lowry can't maintain his two-shot lead over the field, there will be dozens of players within reach of the lead in what has become a strange and fascinating tournament.
Day shoots 66, gets back into contention at U.S. Open
The world's top-ranked player shot a 66 and got to sleep in.
Souhan: Johnson leads again at a major; what will follow this time?
Dustin Johnson is the most intimidating player on the PGA Tour in terms of ball-striking and athletic ability, and perhaps the frailest under pressure.
Sergio Garcia at 2 under at U S. Open
He's a major contender again after a climactic his 50-foot par.
Souhan: Journeyman Landry leads after damp Day 1 at U.S. Open
Andrew Landry, No. 624 in the World Golf Rankings, was one of only nine golfers to finish. But his 1-under par is good enough for the lead at the U.S. Open.
Unforgiving Oakmont pushing Spieth's buttons
Jordan Spieth is at 1 over, as an amateur and fellow Texan sits in first place during a delayed Round 1.
Souhan: As Mickelson ages, U.S. Open becomes more elusive
Phil Mickelson, six times a runner-up in the U.S. Open, turns 46 on Thursday. Only one golfer older than 46 has won a major.
Souhan: The Open at Oakmont good for high scores, little fun
This week, Oakmont and the USGA seem intent on protecting par. The question is, why?
Souhan: Vikings are proving adept at choosing free agents
When pro teams sign free agents, they often get damaged, arrogant or selfish goods.Somehow, the Vikings and General Manager Rick Spielman have avoided these pitfalls.
Souhan: Time to forget the past and embrace Wolves bright future
Sure, the Wolves could have had Warriors' stars Steph Curry or Klay Thompson - maybe both. But given how things played out, they're just fine now without them.

WWE Stars vs WWE Wrestlers
As we all know when wrestlers get big in the industry they branch off into more media outlets and forms of entertainment.Usually taking breaks from wwe then next thing you know.Surprise! there in a new upcoming movie or guest starring on your favorite tv show.And many of them continue to focus in those alternate industries SO MUCH that they almost build a second image in that/those industries.Superstars such as: the rock,john cena,steve austin just to name a few.So my question is do you enjoy both worlds so to speak of WWE wrestlers? Or Do you think its best to focus on one industry at time?
Re: WWE Stars vs WWE Wrestlers
I don't see anything wrong with wrestlers' having outside interests. Hell it will make them more money so go for it. But I could see how WWE would be greedy and want them all to themselves.

I am currently a mother of a two yr old and I am 3 mo pregnant with my 2nd child,with my 1st pregnancy I had a different doctor and I didn't feel like I was getting the personal care and time I needed. With Dr.Cohen it is a whole different amazing experience. From day One he has given me his cell phone number for emergencies, I can call one day in advance and be squeezed in and he had gone above and beyond to assure my comfort with dealing with severe nausea and vomiting. He has went out of his way to email other specialty Doctors who have previously turned me away due to being overbooked and suddenly they squeezed me in after getting a personal email from Dr Cohen. I just feel as a Dr he is amazing as well as his secretary Mrs.Roz who calls me periodically to check on me, this is what I wish I had with my 1st pregnancy but am so so happy I can receive it in my 2nd, only downfall is that he is primarily High risk ( which is what I am this pregnancy) So with subsequent pregnancies I might now be able to have him as my Ob/Gyn unless I become high risk again

Once again we've shown how inept we are in the transfer market. Is he really over 3 times better than Damien Duff ?

I was shocked at the price but it is good to see you buying decent English talent again.
Personally i thought you would have gone for Hargreaves.

Hi, spurs fan here,
Just wanted to set a few things straight
Yes you have payed over the odds for Carrick (£14m-£18m)
Yes he is not World Class
He is still young at yet to reach his potential. I think SAF could bring out the tiger in him and really make him into a great player. To be perfectly honest, and I'm not bitter here coz we've lost him, but he has a lot to improve in his game.
1) Tackling - he ducks out of tackles and is never a really 'hard' challenger, but you could argue that type of midfielder is becoming passe now that the game is hindered on the fouls/cards/diving/cheating etc
2) Doesn't head the ball
3) Too negative, plays backwards instead of forwards
4) Set pieces are often woeful and overhit!
5) Doesn't shoot enough (2 goals last season)
Now of course its easy to be critical, its what us English do best, but obviously he has strengths too, the ability to find a pass, he makes so much time on the ball, two great feet, and you saw it towards end of last season, when he got forward he looked exciting.
I hope he matures as a player and adds to his qualities by working on his weaknesses, then he just may be worth every penny you spend on him.
Whatever I think, Man U desperately needed to fill that void, and that desperation caused SAF to dig deeper in his pockets, and that with Spurs reluctance to let one of their key players go, the inevitable result was a high price.
I'm looking forward to playing you guys this season, we always seem to have good, competitive but well natured games. A lot of respect between the two clubs and I admire that

If u don't like it FUCK OFF to FC United with all the other turncoat scumbags. Whinging tosser.

CARRICK is the best in his position now we need this player so we have to pay ,I think that if we had paid spurs 70$ it would be good for us ,people see obi mikel he's shit ,and then u judge
Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone's got one and most are full of shit!
I've never seen Obi Mikel play in the premier league or internationally. What are you basing your judgement on?
I guess fans are never happy.
If we failed to pay 18m to get him, we say Galzer's interest payment screwed us up.
Now we showed willingness to spend big in transfer market, we say it's overpriced and we should get something cheap that Chelsea just got rid of.
This signing is very important because of the following,
1. he is relatively young
2. he is playing central mid-field and we are lacking creativity. How many chances we created vs Milan two years ago? Even with Ruud, we are powerless vs top defensive teams.
3. we showed top clubs MU still can pay big bucks to get players we want.
4. it will lift some confidence of the team
5. he is playing for England so I am sure many fans here would be happy to see that.
So please cheer up and be a little positive.
cant imagine why you compare someone on the way up to someone going in the opposite direction... duff is a sometimes effective winger with a dodgy hamstring carrick is an underated defnesive midfielder with a vast array of attacking passing potential ,long ball ,short, over the top ,crosses , 50yard upfield passes we are in need of someone to sweep up and start our attack off with incisive passing and competent hard tackles in front of the back four like keano used to do lets at least give him a season to see what he can do and allow him to settle and remember he wants to prove he should be in the england team by right and im sure he will do us well

Well said! If I were in Carrick's shoes, I would only want to move from a club which is pushing the EPL top 4 and improving, to a club in that top 4 which is capable of winning everything. I also wouldn't want to be a bench warmer and be able to communicate in English. So I would choose United, case closed.
I agree that football is about opinions and in the long run you might well be right. However, business is also about making decisions and I think that SAF is well aware that he needed to bolster his midfield and that he couldn't piss about much longer otherwise he might miss the boat. If we can do good business for Senna and maybe a world class striker I think all in all it will be a good summer.

Relying on this information I purchased his service using my Google account for payment of $189. He said this was for administrative fees that he would be emailing me a list of properties and to let him know which ones I was interested in.
I was then sent an application which had basic information. The application was an email he said copy and paste in new email and then answer the questions. I did this and initialed where necessary. One portion of the text was actually hidden which I did not see because you actually had to click on the portion of text to make it visible. I was not familiar with this feature.
At that time I had already paid the $189 and then was told to "sign" the application.
I was sent 3 lists of properties that had properties from 6/09 to the present day. I requested information regarding 10 of properties. Richard Garcia had me working with Cynthia by this time. I was sent the contact numbers and instructions to call each place and make an appointment to see the property.
I called the numbers provided. I was instructed to tell them that a broker Richard Garcia had referred me to them. I left messages when I did not reach anyone. One property was already taken. I talked to one gentleman who told me all about their process and how they would need to run their own credit check and I would need to pay for that and also that would do full background checks due to HOA regulations. Another agent in regards to another listing said that I would need to come into office and be qualified before I could even see the property.
At this time I realized that Mr. Garcia was not what he held himself out to be. He gave me numbers to call told me to take all my information with me and be ready to leave a deposit with that person who showed me the place to show that I was serious. He did not tell me that everyone I called would be another Relator or Property Manager.
When I signed up for service I thought I would be working with one person who would find me a place. That he would qualify me for the properties he had and it was only a matter of finding the right one!
Upon this realization that what I thought I paid for and what I got were two different things I contacted Mr Garcia and requested full refund. He told me that he cannot that his company will not allow him to do so. He is the owner of this company.
I informed Mr Garcia that I had decided that I would not be moving at this time. I had a baby prematurely and she was in hospital. That his service was not needed anymore.
Mr Garcia did not cooperate with me. He still ran my credit report as well as my boyfriends even after I informed him that he did not have permission to do so. Mr Garcia said that I was trying to rip him off and that based on my credit that is what I do. My boyfriends credit report also came back with some interesting information regarding his employer it stated that he was a porn star working with deez easy and a con artist. This was not on his credit report 3 months ago.
I gave Mr Garcia the oppurtunity to refund my money and even keep the 39 for his troubles. He refused. He has been very unprofessional.
I recieved only one call back from the 8 messages I left. The real estate agent I spoke with did not even know Richard Garcia. I spoke with in regards to my situation and he informed me that this is becoming a new upcoming scam.
Mr Garcia obtains information from public records and makes potential renters believe these are properties HE manages. The truth is that he provides a list and a coaching session to how to rent a property and nothing more.

A preliminary hearing has been tentatively scheduled for August for a Monroe County Correctional Facility inmate charged with stabbing another inmate with a pen.
Placed in jail and awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty to retail theft in a January Pocono Township case, Ruben Calero, 28, said he stabbed Diego Sanchez, 39, in June after Sanchez allegedly threatened Calero's family, according to a District Attorney's Office affidavit. Sanchez is serving time after pleading guilty to terroristic threats and resisting arrest in a May 2013 Pocono Township case, according to court records.
Surveillance video shows Calero left his cell, armed with a pen, entered Sanchez's cell and got into a scuffle with Sanchez after both had eaten breakfast with the other inmates, according to the affidavit. Calero moments later returned to his own cell and he and Sanchez then began arguing between their two cells.
Ten seconds later, Calero, still carrying the pen, again exited his cell, approached Sanchez, who retreated into his own cell, and tried to stab Sanchez in the face, the affidavit states. Sanchez was stabbed several times in the left forearm while trying to fend off the assault and required medical attention afterward.
Calero is charged with aggravated assault, aggravated assault by a prisoner, reckless endangerment and simple assault.

This textbook is a companion volume to the author's "Course in Normal Histology," to the illustrations in which the reader is constantly referred. Written by a man of real scientific eminence, with a creditable research record, the book has many unique features which should commend it to teachers. One notes with pleasure that the author recognizes the impossibility of giving any structural definition to which all cells will conform, and the necessity of correlating the information gained in different fields of inquiry. It is one of the few books in which an attempt is made to establish a relation between histology and gross anatomy, on the one hand, and between histology and physiology, on the other. The absence of adequate illustrations is not wholly a disadvantage, when we reflect that histologic study is always carried on in presence of the material, and when we remember the baneful influence on the

Skill Level Beginner
In the last several movies, we've introduced you to a number of ways to create graphics in Processing, both based on the formulas in your sketches and also based on references to external data. We've also shown you how to create the basic elements of interaction, by, for instance, being able to click on shapes and drag them, being able to roll over, have them change, respond, provide extra information, being able to slice through, being able to rotate, to zoom, to slide. These really are the basic forms of interaction for the great majority of data visualizations, and I think you'll find that as you take those elements, you'll be able to build almost everything that you want to do.
However, I did want to show you a few kinds of more elaborate data visualizations and user responsiveness that because they are rather lengthy, very time consuming, I wanted to show you the code from the built-in examples in Processing, really, so that you're aware that they exist, and you can take a look at them and see if they provide any kind of inspiration or direction for your own work. The three examples that I'm going to show you all come from one book by Ben Fry, one of the co-creators of Processing.
They are from his book Visualizing Data. It's an excellent resource, and I strongly encourage you to take a look at. It's relatively advanced, but it is very careful and steps through all the way. I want to show you three of the examples that come in the Processing example folder. So, for instance, if you have Processing open, you simply go to File, to Examples, and then this window here pops up, Standard Examples, and you go to Books, down to Visualizing Data.
And the two that I want to show you are first from the one that says ch03-usmap where he shows every step of a build of a map that has some data that's responsive on it. I wanted to show you number 16, step 16, very quickly. And what you have here--I'll pull that out--is that he's been taking step by step of getting a map of the United States and then superimposing what are actually random data points in the middle of each state, along with a rollover.
This is great work. This is where the Table class that we've been using comes from. And I want you to see some of the things that he is able to do to serve as an inspiration in your own work. I'm just going to hit Run here. And what we get is a map of the United States, with a dot in each central location. And there are two things that happen. Number one, if I press the space key, those dots change to other random values, where the colors indicate positive and negative and the size indicates the magnitude of the number. And they're totally random. These look like voting results, but they're just random numbers.
And what happens is first off, he has this nice little compression thing that refers to as the integrator, that makes it possible for these to change slowly from one to the other. The other one is if you hover over one of these, it actually gives you the name of the state and the current random number. Also, he's got a wonderful bit of code that makes it so that even when things are closed into each other, you don't accidentally queue the other state's information. Anyhow, this is a way of working with latitude and longitude, as well as data values, and providing levels of interactivity.
I suggest you look at it. Again it's in the Standard Examples of Processing, under Books/ Visualizing Data/ch03-usmap. This one is step16_lethargic. The next one I want you to take a look at, if we close that, is from hierarchies, and what this is is a way of looking at how things are apportioned and groups that are contained within groups, contained within groups. In this particular example, what we're going to be looking at is the filetreemap, and that's the one that I have open right here.
A treemap is a space-filling diagram that shows hierarchical relationships. Now, in order for this one to run, you're going to have to go and download a folder from his own website. You're going to need to download the treemap library and the place you go for that--I'll just show it you in a web browser--is to his own web page, benfry.com/writing/treemap, and that brings up this page that says Treemap Library.
What you need to do is go to the second paragraph and click on where it says library zip. That will download a folder for you and put it in your Downloads, and it shows up first at library, but if you double-click on that, it says treemap. And then what you need to do is need to go to your Sketchbook folder in Processing and find your library folder. Mine is right here. I have it under Documents/ Processing. And then you just drag it in. Then you need to quit and reopen Processing, and then the treemap library will be functional in there.
And what you find, when you open that one, is you get this program that's going to look at the size of files on your computer disk in the folder that you designate. Now, it also runs at a rather high resolution natively, 1024 x 768. So, for right now I've just bumped it down to 800 x 600 so it all fits on the screen. And here's how it works. You click Run, choose a folder. I'm going to go--so I'm going to go to the desktop here and just choose my Exercise Files folder that I have created for this course, and I'll press Open.
There we have 14_02, 14_03. And I'm just going to double-click on this one. And this breaks it up into its constituent pieces, and you can see how big each of the files is relative to each other. So, this is--again, it's called a treemap. It's an interesting way of looking at relative sizes and how things are nested within each other. It is, however, very complicated coding. You'll notice that we have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 separate tabs in this one, as well as an external library.
That's why instead of me demonstrating how to create it, I simply want you to be aware that it exists, and I'd encourage you to look at Ben Fry's book and add the sample code that he has provided in Processing to figure that one out. The last one I want to show you very quickly is under graphlayout. A graph means also a network diagram. And I'm going to show you this one that, right now it bounces around a fair amount. It's little weird. But what it's doing is it's taking the text from Huckleberry Finn and it's showing the relationship between the words. Again, this is another wonderful piece by Ben Fry.
It's from his book, and it's included in the Standard Examples in Processing. And all I want to do is run it and show you how it connects things. Now, we think there maybe some little funky right here, that's I'm just clicking and dragging each of these pieces around, but it shows the relationships between words. Anyhow, this is a network diagram. It can be used with social networks. It can be used with telephone calls. It can be used with anything that connects with other things: scientific publications that connect through referencing to other ones, people who register in same courses together.
Anyhow, this is an elaborate version, and really an advanced topic, but something that I want you to be aware that it exists and that you can explore, especially in consultation with Ben Fry's excellent book, Visualizing Data.
