Entering a war zone is how cleaning supervisor Leon Lyford describes a typical seven-hour shift for him and his 25 co-workers, tasked with clearing up after hordes of drunken Auckland CBD revellers party into the small hours.
"I've had bottles thrown at me while on my motorbike and giant metal bins rolled at me by gangs of yobs," Lyford, 64, sighs. "I've had staff assaulted, equipment stolen ... and as for the foul-mouthed abuse, sadly, you just get used to that."
Lyford has been in the job almost four years. He said the work was becoming increasingly dangerous and revealed some city centre spots are almost no-go areas at certain times of the night.
Is Auckland New Zealand's dirtiest city? Here is the latest selection of your views.

Skolnick Shares The Mrs
Win a DVK Technologies THE MRS Compressor/Booster Pedal Signed by Alex Skolnick of Testament
August 2011, Santa Barbara, CA: MV Pro Audio, North American distributors of DVK Technologies guitar effects pedals, has just launched a contest to win a free THE MRS dual-effect pedal signed by Alex Skolnick, renowned guitarist with the metal band Testament and The Alex Skolnick jazz trio.
THE MRS dual-effect pedal pairs a legendary compressor circuit with a versatile booster to give you a sonic palette ranging from loud and clean to outright filthy! Along with traditional controls, the compressor features a Norm/Bright switch for some extra "zing!" and the booster features selectable Normal/Fat. Skolnick shares, "DVK Pedals are well built, look great, and open up many new frequencies for dialing in your tone. I like THE MRS and SilverTop in particular. Lately, I've been using THE MRS for recording crunchy tracks in my home studio."
THE MRS is part of a series that also includes the GoldTop, SilverTop, and Hairball pedals. DVK pedals thoughtfully combine two essential pedals into one, coupling effects that guitarists often use in tandem. DVK effect combinations include fuzz and vibe (a la Hendrix at Woodstock), overdrive and vibe (an SRV or Page essential), and compression and clean boost (for that indispensible Nashville sound). The pedals feature rugged, compact enclosures topped with custom original graphics that range from sublime to warped.
Sign up at www.mvproaudio.com/DVK_The_Mrs between August 1 and September 30, 2011 for a chance to win! No purchase necessary. This giveaway is offered to residents of North America only; void where prohibited. Only one entry per person; complete contest details and rules are posted at www.mvproaudio.com.

Finnish Police E-mails Spoofed in Phishing Attack
In a warning released by Finland's NBI (National Bureau of Investigation), the public has been alerted about "phishing" gangs, which are currently preying to financial institutions and banks consumers.
'Phishing' means sending a phony or spoofed e-mail to customers or clients of a bank, persuading them to 'verify' their password and account details over the Internet.
As per some reports, on November 9, 2009, Internet scammers for the first time tried to copy the Finnish police e-mails. They crafted messages in such a way that unwitting users could be deceived into giving away their credit card numbers.
The e-mails, using correct Finnish language, solicited credit card details from the recipient in the guise of terminating a supposedly misused card. The police said - it was rare to find phishing e-mails that purported to be from the police.
According to Timo Laine (Inspector of the NBI), it is usual for phishers to feign reputed organizations for stealing data but the current attack using the name of the police is apparently new. There have been no reports about anything similar like this before, Laine said, as reported by YLE.FI on November 9, 2009.
Moreover the officials said that efforts were on to establish stronger filters for bank customers' online transactions. The NBI was working in close coordination with the bank authorities and Internet Service Providers to foil the gang's activities.
In the meantime, the NBI noted that banks and police did not ever ask for sensitive information over e-mail. A senior officer at the NBI stated that in addition to the requirement of stricter software, it was also important to have the scam publicized to increase the general public's awareness. According to him, the bureau hoped that financial institutions, particularly banks, could do their bit by spreading information to their customers along with the common mass.
Phishing e-mails mostly related to tax topics and banks are arriving into inboxes in increasing numbers. Similarly, during October 2009, the HMRC (UK) alerted about a massive e-mail fraud that presented fake tax refunds to trick recipients in such a way that they revealed their credit card or bank particulars.

Charlie White had his dream come true almost six weeks ago.
With the 884th overall pick in the 29th round of the Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft, the New York Yankees selected the Terrapins baseball center fielder.
All he had to do was a sign a contract prior to the July 12 signing deadline, and he would become a professional baseball player. His lifelong fantasy would become a reality.
But there was something stopping White from signing that piece of paper: unfinished business.
"We have a core group of players that are coming back, and we all have the same goal in mind," said White, a redshirt junior. "In my three years at Maryland so far, we haven't made the postseason, and that's something that was one of my goals coming in: making it to the postseason and having success there."
White was not alone, though. The Pittsburgh Pirates had selected Terps right-hander Jake Stinnett in the same round, 15 picks earlier. But the hard-throwing starter also passed up an opportunity to play professional baseball in order to return to Maryland.
"I love UMD, and I love playing there," Stinnett said. "We have a great group of guys, great coaches, and I just have a lot of fun there."
Stinnett will move into a more prominent role on coach John Szefc's pitching staff with the departure of ace left-hander Jimmy Reed, whom the St. Louis Cardinals selected in the sixth round of the draft. Szefc will expect Stinnett to return to his late-season form from this spring, when he developed into a consistent strike-thrower and arose as the clear-cut No. 2 starter in the weekend rotation. Now he can be expected to bump up to the No. 1 slot.
"It's an honor to be a Friday-night guy anywhere," Stinnett said. "Hopefully I can just be a good leader for the team and get some wins. I want to be a good example for the younger guys, especially. I know Jimmy, last year … he really helped out the younger guys on the pitching staff and on the team. He's a great leader, so hopefully I can fill his shoes."
After a junior season similar to that of Stinnett's — both pitchers started in the bullpen and made successful switches to the starting rotation midway through the season — Reed was selected in the 21st round of the 2012 draft by the New York Yankees.
The lefty returned to school for his final year, just as Stinnett has decided to do. Reed had a dominant season in which he compiled the seventh-best ERA in the ACC (2.33) and dramatically improved his draft stock.
"You saw what happened to Jimmy last year," Stinnett said. "Hopefully something like that will happen to me because I know Jimmy is really happy about how that worked out with him."
Two of the Terps' high school signees, right-hander Michael Shawaryn and catcher Nick Cieri, will be joining the Terps in the fall, despite being drafted. The Kansas City Royals selected Shawaryn, and the San Francisco Giants selected Cieri in the 32nd round, but both remained unsigned at the deadline.
Shawaryn and Cieri are part of a strong freshman class that, along with the current squad, has the 2014 Terps poised to improve on last year's result. Szefc will be returning a vast majority of his starters — the Terps only lost three seniors on the entire roster — and the former Kansas State coach has his first year in the ACC under his belt.
Most importantly, though, the players are hungry for the postseason.
So hungry, pro ball can wait.
"I'm excited to get back to work," White said.

text: GET YOUR POPCORN READY: It's Mosley Report time! • I know Archer probably covered this, but it's worth repeating that the two kickers who showed up today went a combined 1-for-8 on field goals. Mike Vanderjagt missed practice because of illness. Bill Parcells' body language (a scary thing) suggested that he wasn't thrilled about Vanderjagt staying in his room. He didn't know whether Vanderjagt would be available for the afternoon practice. • Watched Marc Colombo in 1-on-1 blocking drills this morning. He neutralized Kenyon Coleman a couple of times, and that's difficult to do in a drill that favors the pass-rushers. Colombo worked with the first team today, but don't read too much into that. Rob Petitti has struggled a little bit early in camp. The coaches want him to take his great off-season onto the field. • Had a long discussion with Jason Ferguson about this camp compared to the last one. Last year, he got banged up early and never really seemed to hit his stride. Parcells said today that Ferguson will be under a tremendous amount of pressure because of the lack of experience behind him. Second-year player Thomas "Pepper" Johnson and rookie Montavious Stanley both have a chance, but they are far from polished. "Last year, I had to share time with [La'Roi] Glover," Ferguson said. "Now, I'm getting a lot of reps and a lot of it's on me. I like it that way." Ferguson has a very engaging personality, and he's really reached out to the younger players. And count him among the many who are raving about defensive end/tackle Jay Ratliff. • Andre Gurode appears to have the upper hand at center early in camp. He once again worked with the first team this morning. Gurode is better than Johnson against 3-4 schemes, a point that Ferguson emphasized during our conversation today. "Al's more versatile," Ferguson said of Johnson. "I just wish we could combine the two guys." Parcells has rotated centers before, but I get the feeling he'd rather go with one guy. • Someone named Stephen Bowen (Hofstra rookie) blew by veteran offensive tackle Jason Fabini during 1-on-1 drills this morning. To the naked eye, Fabini appears to be struggling. Parcells said Fabini's still trying to overcome shoulder injuries he had last year. Beginning to think our Todd Archer was right when he selected Fabini as a semi-big name that could be deleted from the roster. • One of my favorite things to do during practice is to stand near former Giant Jim Burt during drills. He sort of gives you a play-by-play of what's happening on the field. A few nuggets from today: Heard him say that no one on this roster is capable of blocking linebacker DeMarcus Ware. "I've never seen anyone like him," said Burt, who once played with a guy named Lawrence Taylor...Though you wouldn't know it by talking to Greg Ellis, Burt said of him: "He's no longer a disgruntled employee. He's got the best position on the field. He gets to go up against tight ends and running backs." Burt thinks Ellis has a chance to make a successful transition, but Parcells keeps telling us that we're "way too far down the road" on this story. • One Dallas-area reporter ran up to tell former OU safety Roy Williams that his alma mater had dismissed its starting quarterback while Williams was still basking in the glow of his contract extension. This same 40-something journalist has been known to attend news conferences in UT basketball jerseys. Back with a new feature called Coaching Shorts in just a moment. Don't turn that Internet address! Posted by Matt Mosley http://www.**************/sharedcontent/dws/img/standing/icons/email.gif at 2:40 PM (E-mail this entry) Morning practice observations • Since we've been asked to give some sort of news on new linebacker Akin Ayodele, here goes: He had a nice pass deflection of a Tony Romo pass, using the correct technique (arm closer to the quarterback) to bust up the throw. Parcells has said Ayodele, the Irving native, is doing a nice job. We'll have more, promise. • Parcells mentioned the possibility of having receiver Jamaica Rector play a little cornerback. He had linebacker Ryan Fowler line up as a fullback in goal-line situations Wednesday. Remember last year Marcus Spears lined up at fullback during games as a lead blocker. • Mike Vanderjagt missed practice because he was sick. Parcells isn't sure if the kicker will be out there for the afternoon workout. He's missed five of his first 12 kicks. And the Cowboys' kickers combined to make 1 of 8 tries Wednesday morning with all but one kick missing to the right. • Guard Marco Rivera had some tape outside his pants on his right leg. He didn't miss any time. • Marc Colombo was working at right tackle with the first team with Jason Fabini on the No. 2 unit and Rob Petitti with the threes. Parcells said he's just rotating his candidates. OK, but Colombo has been a surprise so far. • A Scott Shanle hit took off Marion Barber's helmet on a run, and Shanle's not known as a big hitter. • After a few poor looks in the two-minute drills, Parcells barked at Tony Romo, who has thrown four picks in camp.

The internet-based broadcaster that snatched English Premier League football away from Sky is now eyeing the All Blacks.
This weekend Coliseum Sports Media will stream the first of 380 Premier League matches to subscribers.
CSM chief executive Tim Martin said he could not reveal the number of PremierLeaguePass subscriptions, which start at $149.90, sold so far, but interest had "ramped up massively" this week.
"You don't know how the sales curve is really going to shape because we haven't done this before ... we are well into the thousands, well into, and that is tremendously encouraging."
He confirmed Coliseum is eyeing a much bigger scrap with Sky - contesting the rights to the All Blacks and Super 15 when they come up in 2015.
Although there had been no concrete discussions, Mr Martin said he had met with New Zealand Rugby bosses. He acknowledged they had a strong relationship with Sky, but an eventual play for rugby was realistic.
Yesterday Sky's director of sport Richard Last said it was committed to holding on to rugby rights.
"There is always a competitive marketplace ... I don't think there is any piece of content that is an absolute slam-dunk must-have, because you have to run a business.
"Obviously everybody who is interested in television in New Zealand would be interested in rugby. Winning the rights is easy - you just pay more than the person with the highest bid."
Mr Last said Sky had not lost a noticeable number of subscribers because of its limited EPL coverage, and the clubs deal was a sound offering after it missed out on live rights.
Nick Brown, general manager public affairs for New Zealand Rugby, said the long-standing relationship with Sky was valued and it showcased rugby well.
"The Sky contract concludes at the end of 2015 and along with our Sanzar partners we will be looking for broadcast and content arrangements that deliver the best outcomes for fans and the sport in New Zealand," he said.
Premier League: Who's showing what

You've already done what most will tell you to do...try them out yourself. Pick whichever feels best for you, and whichever feels the safest. I have no problem with the P99 having no safeties, as I don't have any small children around or anything of that sort to inadvertently pull the trigger. Also, with a hammer fired gun, it makes sense to have the hammer cocked and a thumb safety engaged since a lot are single action only (I believe the USP is DA, however). But with the P99 being striker fired, it requires no external safety. All of the safeties are internal, and all you need to do is pull the trigger in order to fire a round. If you do not want to fire the gun, don't ahve your finger on the trigger. Don't think that because the P99 has no user enabled safeties that it is an unsafe gun.
As you've already stated, the P99 feels great. That's about all I can say about it...it's hands down the best gun I've ever held in my hands in terms of feel. I only had the chance to shoot it in .40, which was a shame, since I'm not too fond of that round. Had it been 9mm I probably would've bought it right there.
The safety issue is something that you will have to decide on your own. The P99 is perfectly safe as long as you're not putting your finger on the trigger all the time. Think of it like a Glock...just without the external trigger safety.

The S.C. Department of Natural Resources will be out in force patrolling the state's waterways this July 4 holiday weekend, traditionally the busiest boating time of the year in South Carolina.
"Again this weekend, as we have throughout the summer, DNR boating safety officers will be focused in 'saturation' patrols on lakes, rivers, reservoirs and our coastal waters in an effort to reduce boating accidents, injuries and fatalities," according to Col. Alvin Taylor, deputy director for the DNR Law Enforcement Division in Columbia. "Our goal is to make the waterways a safer place for boaters and families by increasing our visibility and DNR presence on the water."
S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) law enforcement officers patrolling the state's waterways over the long July 4 holiday weekend will be on the lookout for dangerous boating behavior, such as negligent or reckless operation and boating under the influence; major causes of boating accidents, injuries and fatalities, Taylor said.
So far this year, seven people have died in boating accidents in South Carolina. There were a total of 13 boating deaths in 2004, 33 deaths in 2003, 14 in 2002, 18 in 2001 and 15 in 2000.
"We are working to reduce boating accidents injuries and fatalities by placing an increased emphasis on boating safety patrols, combined with a heightened boating safety public awareness initiative," Taylor said.
Last summer, DNR launched its new "Zippit" boating safety campaign. "Zippit" is a life-size lifejacket mascot that will be seen around the state on billboards and at public boat landings and special events. "Zippit" promotes the importance of wearing your life jacket and to always make safety a priority while boating and on the water. This weekend, at select areas around the state, the DNR (B-SAF) boating safety saturation team, will be handing out "I Got Caught Wearing My Life Jacket" t-shirts to children who are seen wearing their life jackets during routine boating safety inspections.
State and national statistics indicate that over 90 percent of all boating fatalities could be prevented with the proper use of life jackets.
Additionally, for boaters who would like to have a check of their safety equipment before they hit the water, DNR officers will be conducting boating safety inspections at some public boat landings over the holiday weekend. "These courtesy inspections are being offered to ensure that all boaters have the required safety equipment on-board their vessel before they launch their boat," Taylor said. "This is all about safety and averting a potentially dangerous situation before it becomes a problem." During these courtesy inspections, DNR officers will be available to talk with boaters and answer enforcement and safety questions.
Obeying boating laws and rules will keep most boaters safe and out of trouble:
State law requires boating safety training for anyone younger than 16 who wants to operate a boat or personal watercraft with an engine 15-horsepower or greater without being accompanied by an adult. For questions concerning this requirement or boater education courses contact, DNR's Boating Education offices at 1-800-277-4301, (803) 734-3995 in Columbia or (843) 953-9302 in Charleston.
Any person younger than 12 in a boat less than 16 feet long must wear a personal flotation device. Anyone on a personal watercraft, which includes Jet Skis, Sea-Doos, WaveRunners and others, must wear a Coast Guard-approved flotation device; they cannot be operated after sunset or before sunrise; and they must be equipped with self-circling or lanyard-type engine cutoffs. No vessel may operate in excess of idle speed within 50 feet of an anchored vessel, dock, pier or person in the water, or within 100 yards of the Atlantic Ocean coastline. No one may jump the wake of another vessel within 200 feet of the vessel creating the wake.
When towing a water skier or person on a floating device, a boat must have an observer onboard or the vessel must be equipped with wide-angled mirrors. A sound-producing device, such as a horn or whistle, is required on all boats. Fire extinguishers are required on most boats.
It is against the law, and extremely dangerous, to operate a boat while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Play it safe and use a designated driver while boating, just like you would in an automobile. In South Carolina, individuals involved in an accident that causes a death or serious injury face an implied consent alcohol test and serious penalties with a maximum of 25 years imprisonment and up to a $25,000 fine. On the water, the effects of alcohol or drugs are magnified by the elements of sun, wind and wave action. Alcohol also impairs coordination of arm and leg movements, slows response to emergency situations and makes it difficult for boat operators to scan the horizon.
Boat operators are also reminded that wearable personal floatation devices (PFDs or life jackets) are required for each person onboard. On boats 16 feet and longer throwable devices, such as flotation cushions, are required in addition to wearable devices. Life jackets must properly fit each individual, whether child or adult, and be serviceable without tears, holes or other damage or wear that would decrease the effectiveness of the device.
Also, before going out on the water, DNR officers encourage boaters to file a float plan. It's as easy as telling someone where you're going and when you plan to return. That way, if you run into trouble, DNR and other authorities will know where to begin their search. In an emergency, minutes count. Play it safe and file a float plan.
To report boating violations such as reckless operation or an intoxicated boat operator, call the DNR toll-free, 24-hour hotline at 1-800-922-5431.
For a copy of South Carolina's Boating Regulations, to find out about local boating safety courses or to obtain a free float plan form contact the DNR Boating Safety Office at 1-800-277-4301; (843) 953-9302 in Charleston or (803) 734-3995 in Columbia, or visit the DNR Web site at http://www.dnr.state.sc.us/etc/boating.html

Many of us may be thinking about Android Gingerbread today, but for Sprint, it's Froyo that's taking center stage.
Sprint's Samsung Epic 4G smartphone, like all other Galaxy S devices in the U.S., is still awaiting its Android 2.2 upgrade. Over the weekend, folks discovered a version of Froyo for the Epic 4G floating around the Web. That led to widespread rumors that the phone's Froyo rollout had officially begun.
Turns out those rumors were wrong.
Sprint posted the following statement to its Samsung Epic forums Monday afternoon:
Sprint is working on a software package for the Samsung Epic4G that will upgrade it to the Froyo version of Android. Over the weekend, some users were able to access and download a test build (DK28) for the Samsung Epic from some 3rd party developer sites. Unfortunately, this is not approved software for Sprint production devices and we strongly recommend that users refrain from loading it.
Software version DI18 is the current production version of software. When new versions of software are available, users will receive a notification from Google on their device stating that an upgrade is available for download and installation. While we are unable to communicate a firm delivery date, rest assured that we are working on a software upgrade to Froyo and hope to have it out in the very near future.
A bit of a downer on Gingerbread day, no doubt -- but there you have it.
For the latest Froyo upgrade status of any device, be sure to bookmark our Android 2.2 upgrade list. It's always kept up-to-date with the most current info available.

Zero Carbon Hub proposes way for builders to pay in lieu of cutting emissions
Carbon payments could raise £1.1 bn
Local authorities could set up multi-million pound funds to pay for carbon reduction measures using contributions from developing associations and house builders, under proposals unveiled this week.
The Zero Carbon Hub, a group of house builders and government representatives which co-ordinates the delivery of zero carbon homes, outlined the idea in a report published on Tuesday.
The funds would be paid by developers to offset any carbon emissions they could not eliminate through the building process when building zero carbon homes. All new homes must be zero carbon by 2016.
The report, based on research by Cooperative Financial Services and accountancy firm Grant Thornton, estimated that £200 million of developer contributions could be borrowed against to raise a total of £1.1 billion.
Under the proposals, this would work by setting a price for carbon emissions. Developers would then make a payment either to a local authority-run community energy fund or pay a third party provider to arrange a project called an allowable solution from a list made by the council.
Allowable solutions include investment in energy from waste plants, charging facilities for electric vehicles and low-carbon street lighting.
House builders must meet minimum standards to reduce carbon emissions from their developments and then use allowable solutions, provided either in the development or offsite, to meet the rest of the zero carbon requirements.
Matthew Bush, sustainability manager at Metropolitan Housing Partnership, described the proposals as 'a pragmatic solution to building zero carbon homes'. However, he expressed concerns that the practice could lead to confusion and 'double counting of emission cuts'.
A verification scheme, run by an independent board, will check the projects are delivered, give credits ahead of completion and approve the release of funds.
The cash would pay for projects generating 2,940 GWh of power a year, 37 per cent of the Department for Energy and Climate Change's target for energy generation from small renewables.
Housing minister Grant Shapps said he would read the report with 'great interest'.
Gary Porter, chair of the housing and environment board at the Local Government Association, said: 'It puts local communities first, which would ensure that development delivered through allowable solutions would not only provide environmental benefits but would also fit with the strategic planning aims of the local area.'

Next-Gen Audi A6 allroad (C7) Render from Acerbus
by, 02-16-2011 at 11:36 AM (9303 Views)
Having first sampled Audi's new A6 just last week, we've become entirely convinced that the new car will bring about an all-new level of prominence for the brand. Given that, we've been particularly curious about what new variants of the A6 will look like. Thanks to photoshop render artist Acerbus, we're now able to see.
So What Do We Think?
One of the things we really like about Acerbus is that renders never take much in the way of liberties. What you're looking at is an A6 with known allroad design cues such as the aluminum chin center, fender flares, wheels and grille. The only thing we might have done diferently is to raise the car up a tad. Nice work.
Check out the same shot in more colors after the jump. Thanks QARSI.de for the tip.

Nicolas Sarkozy's apology tour
- By Joshua Keating
Joshua Keating was an associate editor at Foreign Policy
French President Nicolas Sarkozy has, in the past, shown little interest in discussing the darker periods of French history. His summed up his attitude while visiting former colony Algeria two years ago, saying:
"Young people on either side of the Mediterranean are looking to the future more than the past and what they want are concrete things. They're not waiting for their leaders to simply drop everything and start mortifying themselves, or to beat their breasts, over the mistakes of the past because, in that case, there'd be lots to do on both sides."
But in the last two weeks there have been some signs that Sarkozy may be tentatively softening his relentlessly forward-facing outlook. Visiting Haiti last week to announce a debt cancellation package, Sarkozy had this to say about France's legacy of slavery, colonialism, and economic dominance over the country:
"Our presence did not leave good memories," Sarkozy conceded outside the still-standing French Embassy in downtown Port-au-Prince.
"The wounds of colonization, maybe the worst, [and] the conditions of our separation have some traces that are still alive in Haitian memories."
Visiting Rwanda today, Sarkozy didn't exactly apologize for France's conduct during the 1994 genocide, but at least took note of his country's faults:
"What happened here is unacceptable and what happened here forces the international community, including France, to reflect on the mistakes that prevented it from anticipating and stopping this terrible crime."
Asked what he felt those mistakes had been, the president cited a seriously flawed assessment of the situation in Rwanda as the genocide unfolded and a UN-mandated French military intervention that was "too late and undoubtedly too little".
But reflecting a thaw in relations, Sarkozy said he hoped the future would enable the two countries to "turn an extremely painful page" on a past fraught with mutual distrust. "Off the back of all these mistakes … we are going to try to build a bilateral relationship," he said.
Granted, this isn't much — certainly less than the Rwandans were expecting and much weaker than the apologies Bill Clinton and Kofi Annan have made — but it's a new style from Sarkozy, whose rhetoric has never exactly been known for its sensitivity.

Flu shots push starting early on High Desert
Vaccines offered now to combat virus
BEND, Ore. - Flu season, here we come.
Sign after sign is out there, as health officials try to persuade you: Now is the time for the shot.
"A lot of people think of the flu as a nuisance or it's not very serious when in fact, every year, a lot of people do die from complications related to the flu," said Dr. Mattie Towle at Bend Memorial Clinic.
Influenza usually hits hardest in January and February, but the virus is always changing.
Pharmacies are already launching the vaccine because they want you to be immune to the flu before the season officially gets here.
"If you start early, people will go into that flu season with the immunity in place and you'll have a less severe flu season," Towle said.
"People are going to have a fever, the runny nose and congestion, sore throat, and usually there will be significant headache and body aches," explained Dr. Keith Harrington at Mountain Medical Immediate Care in Bend.
This year, Americans have the largest number of vaccine options to choose from: the regular shot; the nasal spray; a high-dose shot for those 65 and older; a tiny-needle shot for the squeamish; and an egg-free shot for those allergic to eggs, though that's not being offered in Deschutes County.
"The CDC is saying the risk to egg-allergic people is really low, and it may very well be safe for them to receive the regular shot," Towle said.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends flu vaccines for everyone age 6 months and older. Certain people are more susceptible to the disease than others.
"Children, elderly, the immune compromised and pregnant women are really the groups that need to get the flu shot," said Tom Kuhn at Deschutes County Health Services.
Doctors also suggest some time-honored ways to keep from spreading the flu or other illnesses: washing your hands, covering your mouth if you have a cough and avoiding public places if you're sick.
Getting vaccinated for the flu is not only about protecting yourself, but those around you.
"The more people we get immunized, the more effective it's going to work for the whole population," Harrington said.
Bend Memorial Clinic will be holding flu shot clinics in both Bend and Redmond for the upcoming flu season.
The clinics will be held Saturday October 5th and November 2nd from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. at Bend Memorial Clinic's Eastside location at 1501 NE Medical Center Drive, Bend and Saturday October 19th from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. at Bend Memorial Clinic's Redmond location at 865 SW Veterans Way.
Walk-ins are welcome and no appointment is necessary. The cost is $30 per shot and is billable to most insurance. The BMC flu shot clinic is open to anyone over the age of 3 years old.
For questions about the Flu Clinics, please call Bend Memorial Clinic at 541-382-2811.
And here's Deschutes County's news release Tuesday on the coming flu season:
Flu season is here. Vaccination is the most effective way to avoid catching the flu virus, and the best way to protect yourself and your community from illness. Here is the very latest flu information for you and your family.
WHO SHOULD RECEIVE FLU VACCINE? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends everyone age 6 months and older should receive an annual influenza vaccination. Children 6 months through 8 years-old may need two doses depending on previous flu vaccine history, so it is important to talk to your health provider. A seasonal flu vaccination is especially recommended for people with chronic medical conditions, pregnant women, people living or caring for babies six months and younger, and all health care workers.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD WE BE VACCINATED? Each year, scientists determine the flu strains that are likely to cause the most disease and include them in the flu vaccination for that season. People should get a flu vaccine every year to protect themselves. Locally, flu season peaks in January and February but can begin as early as October and is unpredictable. Since it takes about two weeks after vaccination for antibodies to develop in the body and provide protection against influenza, getting your vaccine as soon as it is available will help protect you throughout this flu season.
WHERE CAN I GET MY VACCINE? Flu vaccine is available through local health care providers as well as most pharmacies (for people 11 years and older). Deschutes County Health Services is also offering flu vaccine for children 6 months to 18 years old. Call (541) 322-7400 to schedule a flu vaccine appointment for your child.
PREVENT GETTING THE FLU: In addition to vaccination, these preventive measures can help stop flu and other diseases·:
- 1. Cover your cough and sneeze.
- 2. Wash your hands often. Use soap and warm water.
- 3. Stay home when you're sick. Protect others at school and work by staying home at least 24 hours after a fever (100+ degrees) subsides.
- 4. Clean surfaces often. Flu germs can live for hours on hard surfaces, especially where children are playing.
Each flu season is unique, but it is estimated that on average, approximately 5 percent to 20 percent of U.S. residents get the flu. More than 200,000 people are hospitalized each year for flu-related complications and about 36,000 Americans die on average, per year from flu complications.

You might need to look into whether -miest- posts the results properly
so that -hausman- can utilize them. If -miest- does not do that, you
would need to write your own driver with a few commands. Read about

Carburetors, CFM and Dual Superchargers
Hey Everyone,
Well I'm about to start making my next project... Its going to be a twin M90 supercharger setup on a 383 Chevy. I just got the Superchargers rebuilt and I'm not sure how much Carburetor I'm going to need.
383 Chevy, all forged
9.3 Compression running E85
Comp cams xe274H with 1.6 full roller rockers
Airgap RPM intake
1 3/4" hooker fenderwell headers
3" aerochamber mufflers
The question is 1 or 2 Predator Carbs? We are dealers so I get a good price on them and have been very happy with mine so I'm sticking with them. They Flow 930cfm so i'm thinking 1 should be enough? The superchargers are going to be spinning about 14K rpm at 6000rpm
anyone ? :welcome:
i was just wondering how you are going to put these supercharges on a sbc?
383 @ 6K @ sea level
0# 665 cfm
2# 755 cfm
4# 845 cfm
6# 936 cfm
8# 1026 cfm
10# 1117 cfm
12# 1207 cfm
14# 1298 cfm
16# 1388 cfm
18# 1479 cfm
20# 1569 cfm
At 9.3 SCR, 10 lbs of boost will put the effective final static compression ratio at 15.5 which may be about the limit for E85. Don't take this as the final word on the subject, just as a starting point to dial from. You may find a way to run a much higher EFSCR.
Thanks for the info Tech, I think I'm going for twin Predators. They are self adjusting so it shouldn't be a problem to go too big.
I'm actually surprised more people haven't done this. I got mine at the u-pull it for $70ea. Rebuilding them is easy, all the bearings and seals are off the shelf parts and cost about $20 if you shop around. The most expensive part so far has been the bottom pulley at $170.
I will take some pics along the way but right now our business has been really busy.
Those huffers were designed to move dry air. Better make sure the seals and such are gonna be ok with gasoline or E85 or whatever you plan to run.
I hopefully got it covered. Form some of the message boards I have read quite a few people have used them with carburetors and no problems. Too be on the safe side I got new rear bearings with seals, the bearings are standard rear alternator bearings for GM cars, Been soaking them in E85 for the past week with no change in the seals. I have also been thinking about putting zerk fittings on the rear bearings but their only $3.50 ea so I'll probably call it good.
I have been planning this for months, making drawings, figuring the easiest way to make parts out of stock sized steel. I have even been dreaming about superchargers. I even have a note pad on my night stand :pain:
Did you ever complete your project? Pics? I bought a M90 a couple of years ago to put it to my 350. Got side tracked with motorcycle stuff. Trying to get back on track with this project. I have some ideas, but looking for others that have done this and how.
what are m90's off of?
It's an Eaton M90 mine came off a 3.8 Buick Bonneville.
1 Attachment(s)
They came off a T-Bird. Yes I did get it running and it ran very very strong. I just could not bring down idle enough to make it workable on the street with the Predator Carbs.
I still have it and may put it back together one day when I get some extra cash for some carburetors.
any photos of the intake manifold? Consider possibly just using one Predator carb?
What is your target power output? It's probably within the reach of one predator carb.

A Journey to the Interior of the Earth HTML version
I then remembered that we had searched for it in vain the evening before. My uncle
questioned Hans, who, after having examined attentively with the eye of a huntsman,
"Up there."
And so it was. The bundle had been caught by a projection a hundred feet above us.
Immediately the Icelander climbed up like a cat, and in a few minutes the package was in
our possession.
"Now," said my uncle, "let us breakfast; but we must lay in a good stock, for we don't
know how long we may have to go on."
The biscuit and extract of meat were washed down with a draught of water mingled with
a little gin.
Breakfast over, my uncle drew from his pocket a small notebook, intended for scientific
observations. He consulted his instruments, and recorded:
"Monday, July 1.
"Chronometer, 8.17 a.m.; barometer, 297 in.; thermometer, 6 deg. (43 deg. F.). Direction,
This last observation applied to the dark gallery, and was indicated by the compass.
"Now, Axel," cried the Professor with enthusiasm, "now we are really going into the
interior of the earth. At this precise moment the journey commences."
So saying, my uncle took in one hand Ruhmkorff's apparatus, which was hanging from
his neck; and with the other he formed an electric communication with the coil in the
lantern, and a sufficiently bright light dispersed the darkness of the passage.
Hans carried the other apparatus, which was also put into action. This ingenious
application of electricity would enable us to go on for a long time by creating an artificial
light even in the midst of the most inflammable gases.
"Now, march!" cried my uncle.
Each shouldered his package. Hans drove before him the load of cords and clothes; and,
myself walking last, we entered the gallery.

JP Morgan Cuts First Marblehead to Neutral
JP Morgan cut First Marblehead (FMD ) to neutral from overweight.
Analyst Marco Vilegas cited increased uncertainty stemming from the resignation of CEO Dan Myers. He noted the CEO's resignation is related to gifts exchanged with a client and says this is a rather extreme outcome, amidst a tumultuous time for the company. The development adds to a string of negative news flow on the stock, Vilegas said. He noted that the appointed CEO joined the company in August and he thinks a new level of uncertainty may make it more challenging for First Marblehead to add and retain important clients. While shares trade at a discount to the education finance group, Vilegas believes the discount is warranted given recent developments.

After spending last season as the assistant head football coach and offensive coordinator for Massac County, Ryan Lott is ready to turn things around and get the Patriots back into playoff contention as he takes over the reins as head coach this year.
"It's been a hectic summer, and I've been learning all the things a head coach has to do," said Lott, who was hired in March. "But I think I had an advantage over some people who take over a program, because I got to work with (former head) coach (John) Warren last year. Luckily, once I took over the program I already had relationships with the kids, so it was just continuing the work we had done in the offseason. We're just trying to make sure we keep the consistency up. We've had a great offseason. All our kids worked hard and are taking care of the things that will make us better."
Massac County returns five on offense who saw playing time last season, and two of those played quarterback. Senior Braden Fritch came into the season as the starter, but got hurt in game seven. That's when junior Jay Benard took over and started the final two games.
"Braden has showed he was very capable at quarterback last year," Lott said. "He's probably a better runner of the two, whereas Jay is more of a pocket passer. I think both can run the ball well enough. But there's a little bit of a different flavor with the offense when we have one in there over the other, and we'll call the offense to the strength of who we have in there. So that's something we've been working on with the different looks between the two."
Senior Dillon Stoner is expected to get the bulk of the carries at running back.
"We've got a good back returning, and he had a pretty good year for us," Lott said. "He had quite a few games where he ran for over 200 yards. So he was a very integral part of the offense last year. We're hoping to build on that and get some other guys in there to help out. We've got quite a few we're looking at to play, because we're quite pleased with our running back corps this year."
Lott said the people who play wide receiver will be virtually new, because of graduation.
Two juniors, Ty Copley and Zach Donaldson, will lead both the offensive and defensive lines. Lott said both groups will have guys who will have to play both ways.
"Donaldson can play anywhere on our front seven, and he and Ty have stepped up and taken charge of both the offensive and defensive lines," Lott said. "We're going to play a lot of guys there, which is what we want to do. But they have the game experience that will really help us out."
Along with Donaldson, Stoner also will see some time at linebacker. Lott hopes to work people in to make sure Donaldson and Stoner don't tire out.
"We've got some guys there we hope to get in at various times," Lott said. "The nice thing is we think we can get them some rest at different times during the game, whether it be offensively and defensively, so we can see how those other guys can handle things in in-game situations."
Quinton Fisher is the lone returning starter in the secondary.
"He's our leader back there, and he works tremendously hard," Lott said. "We want him to lead by example, because we know he's going to be the hardest worker in that group. We've got some guys who are filling in that I'm excited about who I think can help us make some plays in that group."

After 40 years, legendary Fil-Am rock band Dakila returns to Los Angeles at FPAC 22
Pioneering crossover band and 1st 'Best Balisong in the West' competition are latest add-ons to lively festival weekend
LOS ANGELES – Dakila, the legendary but, ultimately, short-lived band that both delighted and mystified audiences with their unique Filipino Latin Rock sound, will return to Los Angeles for the first time in four decades.
The crossover pioneers perform exclusively at the 22nd annual Festival of Philippine Arts & Culture, September 7-8 at Pt. Fermin Park, 807 Paseo del Mar, San Pedro.
"There is a generation of Filipino Americans who mention Dakila with fond reverence," said Jilly Canizares, FilAm ARTS Executive Director. "(FPAC) is beyond proud to present them after 40 years and now, other generations can see and hear for themselves why they were so popular in their era."
Formed in 1971, the San Francisco-based group uniquely fused rock, funk, soul and Latin to a historic, major label signing and album release on Epic/Columbia (now, Sony Entertainment) Records – among firsts for an Asian American/Filipino American group.
Originally comprised of David Bustamante (guitar/vocals); Rome Bustamante (organ/vocals); Bert Ancheta (guitar/vocals); Fred Ancheta (bass); Frank Magtoto (drums); Michael Gopaul (timbales/vocals) and Carlos Badia (congas), Dakila (Tagalog for "great" or noble") is perhaps best remembered for its 1972 album S/T.
The band were a popular attraction at various musical festivals and concerts, touring the nation with the likes of Malo and Buddy Miles and opening for Cal Tjader, Jose Feliciano and Cheech and Chong among many.
It was also at this time that the band was invited to perform at various California universities and colleges at the onset of the formation of Filipino American campus clubs and organizations.
Recently reforming after four decades, the band are being rediscovered by old fans and discovered by new ones.
"The last time (the band) played in LA was 1973 and we co-billed with Johnny Nash ("I Can See Clearly Now") at the Whiskey A-Go-Go on Sunset," recalls original member David Bustamante. "To say we're excited at coming back is an understatement. We're very excited."
In addition, FPAC 22 will also see the debut of the "Best Balisong in the West," a unique competition highlighting the uniquely Filipino bladed weapon, the balisong.
According to filmmaker/editor Paul Factora, the event's organizer, balisong flipping is a popular subculture amongst martial artists around the world, gaining popularity via exhibition videos on Youtube.
The competition will present unique, high-level and crowd-pleasing displays of what many consider to be among the most deadly of bladed weaponry.
Both events take place as part of FPAC 22 which also features comedian Rex Navarrete, the Filipino American Symphony Orchestra (FASO) and continuous entertainment on two stages over the course of two days.
Books, author signings, arts and crafts and a large array of traditional and contemporary food, music and artistry ensure that there is something for the entire family to enjoy.
FPAC is the largest and longest-running, Filipino American community tradition in Southern California, presenting over 500 artists and cultural bearers from across the nation every year.
FPAC 22 is produced by FilAm ARTS – the Association for the Advancement of Filipino American Arts & Culture, a non-profit 501©(3) organization, and sponsored by the City of Los Angeles, LA County Arts Commission, California Arts Council, National Endowment for the Arts, California Community Foundation, Toyota, The Getty Foundation, LA-18, Mavshack, The Asian Journal, Weekend Balita, BakitWhy.com, Oishi Media, The Philippine Department of Tourism, Western Union, The James Irvine Foundation, and LEAP, Inc.

The macabre and lurid tales of Edgar Allan Poe are vividly brought to life - and death – in this stylish, gothic thriller starring John Cusack as the infamous author.
When a madman begins committing horrific murders inspired by Poe's darkest works, a young Baltimore detective (Luke Evans) joins forces with Poe in a quest to get inside the killer's mind in order to stop him from making every one of Poe's brutal stories a blood chilling reality.
A deadly game of cat and mouse ensues, which escalates when Poe's love (Alice Eve, She's Out of My League) becomes the next target.

The Musketeers
Set on the streets of 17th-century Paris where law and order is more an idea than reality, the series follows Musketeers Athos, Aramis and Porthos who are far more than King Louis XIII's personal bodyguards, but ultimately stand resolutely for social justice: for honour, for valour, for love and for the thrill of it

Pacquiao walks into "perfect punch" from Marquez
And just like that, the book has been closed on the Pacquiao – Marquez rivalry. In their 4th career match against each other, Manny Pacquiao went down face down on the canvas with 1 second remaining in the sixth round after walking into a "perfect punch" from Juan Manuel Marquez.
JMM was setting Pacquiao up all throughout their match because that's what he is, a counterpuncher. Pacman got a bit careless in the sixth after landing a flurry of punches to put him on top but Marquez only needs a little opening to throw a looping overhand right that squished the face of Pacquiao and knocked him out cold, for about a minute.
It was not a "lucky punch". Even Roach acknowledged the fact that it was a phenomenal punch from Marquez. "He set us up well. I was a little surprised he could pull that off as hurt as he was, but he pulled it off."
Pacquiao needed smelling salts to revive and the customary post-fight hospital check-up yielded negative results so all is well for our champ.
"To all my fans, I would like to thank you for your prayers and assure you that I am fine. I am looking forward to a nice rest and then I will be back to fight.", said the People's Champ. I don't think Jinkee will approve on that last statement.
Anyway, it was eerily odd to see Pacquiao planking inside the boxing ring. He's the guy we thought couldn't be knocked out that way after stellar performances for the past how many years. It was his first time to be knocked since 1999.
"I never expected that punch," Pacquaio said in a post-fight interview. "I got hit by a punch I didn't see."
"I want to congratulate Juan Manuel. I have no excuses. It was a good fight and he deserved the victory. I think boxing fans who watched us were winners too."
That's good sportsmanship and indeed it was one helluva fight. Way better than his past matches that is. JMM knocked him down in the third with a right hand. Pacquiao got back at him on the fifth, even bloodied his face in the process. He was winning the sixth round until that last second miscalculation on his part that sealed the win for Marquez.
Now with Marquez showing the world that Pacquiao can be defeated decisively, I hope Mayweather Jr. won't be scared anymore to give the fans the "Fight" that everyone is waiting for.
Congrats to Juan Manuel Marquez for showing the world what he's made of in this decisive win against another champion.

Seeing Double with Danielle Steel
Danielle Steel has been writing megasellers since her early novel, The Promise, and now, with 40-something books under her belt and millions upon millions of copies in print, she has delivered Mirror Image, undeniably one of her best. The prose is clean, the story one of sisters in love and in war shines, and yes, you can get out your handkerchiefs and be prepared to laugh, weep, and lose yourself in a riveting saga.
If you're seeing double, it's because twin girls Olivia and Victoria Henderson have grown up practically as one person although, truth be told, they're extremely different from each other. They look exactly alike, except for the odd marking here and there that only their beloved nanny, Bertie, notices, but in personality they are diametric opposites. Victoria is a suffragette, she smokes when she can, she teaches herself to drive and that's saying a lot, since the novel is set right after the Titanic disaster. Olivia, on the other hand, is very domestic, serene, and not given to fits or flights of fancy. The twins have grown up, after the death of their mother, on a luxurious estate in Croton-on-Hudson with the tennis and leisure set, mingling with their neighbors (the Rockefellers!), and doting on their beloved father, who comes up on the weekends from his demanding but wealth-producing investments and steel-mill business in Manhattan. The girls have lived an idyllic existence, very sheltered from the world, but when they become young women, their lives change. At thispoint,Edward Henderson is semiretired, spending most of his time at the estate, but news comes from his attorney that he needs to attend to things back in the city for a short while. His attorney's young partner, Charles Dawson, visits the Henderson clan, and soon Olivia is smitten with him, without giving out any unladylike signals. Charles lost his wife to Titanic and now throws himself into his work, for the most part. Olivia finds him both sad and magnetic, but being the demure woman she is, she merely watches him; Victoria would've been more direct, but she has no interest in the young conservative attorney she'd rather be off getting arrested with the other women at the suffragette rallies.
When their father has to relocate them temporarily, Victoria begins to get into all kinds of trouble, and eventually scandal ensues. She's met an absolute rascal of a lover, and she may be just about to ruin the family name with her carrying on. Nature takes its course, and Victoria finds herself pregnant with the child of this married man. To save her reputation, Charles agrees to marry her but Victoria wants little of this. She was never meant to be tied down, and so she convinces her sister to do something that is completely against Olivia's nature.
We can't tell you what that something is, because to do so would destroy the surprise, but here's a sneak peek at what author Steel has in store for readers: the Titanic, the Lusitania, World War I, sweeping Hudson River estates of the rich and famous, and New York in the teens of this century, all the things money can buy, and the tears that come with the purchases. All of this is why we love Danielle Steel and take her stories into our homes and hearts.
Steel has had a bit of variety in her writing year, from her comic novel The Klone and I to her profound memoir of her son's short life, His Bright Life: The Story of Nick Traina, to this, a blockbuster historical about sisters and the men they love. Bravo, Danielleyou are at the top of your form, after all these bestsellers and all these years.

Ghana ace Kwadwo Asamoah staying put at Juventus
K. Asamoah
By Patrick Akoto
Juventus midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah insists he is going nowhere amid growing speculations surrounding his future.
English side Chelsea are believed to be interested in swooping for the versatile 25-year-old after watching him progress steadily. Â
However the former Liberty Professionals ace insists he has no plans of leaving the old ladies of Italian football.
"I have not spoken to anyone. "There are people who used to call me about clubs interested in me, but I don't put my mind on those things,†Asamoah is quoted by goal.
"The most important thing is to be on the field and do what you have to do. I have a manager who will do that job.
"At the moment, I have not spoken to anyone. I am doing well and Juve is one of the biggest clubs in the world. Moving to another club has not come to mind.â€

If MLS matches were only 75 minutes long, the Portland Timbers just might be a first-place team. Unfortunately for the Timbers, playing well for 90 minutes has proven to be impossible.
Montreal scored a pair of goals in the final 15 minutes to send Portland to another defeat in a match where John Spencer's team looked capable of earning a point or three. Bernardo Corradi scored the opening goal and helped set up Sinisa Ubiparipovic's insurance goal to give the Impact their second victory of the season.
Portland came in riding high off a win against previously undefeated Sporting Kansas City, but the Timbers offense struggled to find any rhythm against an improving Montreal defense. The Impact looked like a rested team coming off a bye week, particularly in the second half as they pounced on a Timbers side that looked to fade late in yet another match.
Montreal took the lead on a questionable penalty call against Steven Smith, who saw a loose ball hit his leg and bounce up and catch his arm. Corradi converted the penalty to give the Impact the lead.
Ubiparipovic closed things out with a streaking run into the area, where a pass found him wide open for his second goal of the season.
Here are the match highlights:
What did you think of this match? Impressed with Montreal's defense? Think Corradi might be the forward the Impact need to lead the attack? What do you think is wrong with Portland? Have an answer for these late-game collapses?
Share your thoughts below.
This game didn't feel like the same late game collapse that seemed to be the hallmark of the Chivas, RSL, and LA games. Yes, Montreal scored two goals in the last 15 minutes, but c'mon, that was a bad handball call and I feel like it's unfair to include a converted PK in with late game defensive lapses that let in Beckerman's stoppage time winner or Beckham's golazo. I'll concede that the second Montreal goal with a defensive breakdown, though. The outside backs need some more awareness of their surroundings, maybe?
No, yesterday's game felt like New England again: absolutely horrible, directionless play from the first minute to the last minute. The only difference between the NE and Montreal games is that at least in NE, they had shots on goal, just off target. Boyd had, what? Four missed shots in that game? I can count the number of Timbers shots on goal on one hand in both the games they've played on the 4-1-3-2 formation.
Not a bad handball call at all. His hand is outside his body and it prevented the ball from popping up. Watch it again. If that ball pops up, like it should have, the nearest Timbers player in on the ground and the nearest Impact player taps in a header. Absolutely right call.
Their defense won't get better until they make some major moves. The problem with Portland's offense is Chara and Jewsbury. They are so week in midfield and can't provide any type of service from the run of play. Boyd can finish when he gets service. Nagbe is the only creator. Build your offense around those 2 guys.
Disagree, it was a pretty egregious call. His body is turning away from the ball (as is his head) so there is no way he can see it. His arm was not in an un-natural position to get the ball, it was just the bounce that caught him. FIFA rules state that to award a PK it must be intentional; this clearly was not.
Agree – the commentator kept prattling on about whether or not it was intentional or not … Doesn't need to be intentional to be a penalty. Arm was away from his body and Portland gained advantage from the contact with his arm … That's a penalty.
In the fifa rules of the game a hand ball is defined as a "deliberate handling of the ball"
a LOT of refs are getting it wrong then …
Fair enough but that's what it says. Here's the full text (I should save this because it seems to come up about once a week)
Handling the ball involves a deliberate act of a player making contact
with the ball with his hand or arm. The referee must take the following
into consideration:
– the movement of the hand towards the ball (not the ball towards
the hand)
– the distance between the opponent and the ball (unexpected
– the position of the hand does not necessarily mean that there is
an infringement
– touching the ball with an object held in the hand (clothing,
shinguard etc.) counts as an infringement
– hitting the ball with a thrown object (boot, shinguard etc.) counts
as an infringement

Joe Smith
Should have been a straight red to Nyassi for the boot to Perkins' face. Hopefully the league will review that and Nyassi will get the suspension he deserves.
As for the Timbers, they're a mess. There are holes on this team but enough talent to at least be somewhat competitive.
However, the coach keeps trying to "shoehorn" guys into spots they're not suited to. He is not playing to their strengths and some guys are getting a free pass in exchange for awful play (Jewsbury, Perlaza, Palmer). It's also hard to tell if good young players like Alhassan and Nagbe are developing.
Wide backs are one problem, but CM is a disaster too. Two CDM mids on at the same time, neither doing much offensively. Chara could help on the attack, but he is not free to do so because Spencer insists on out-of-form Jewsbury playing CAM.
Yesterday it was Palmer-Jewsbury up the spine and the result was a inept CM. Because of this their attack is predictable and easy to stop. Service to Boyd is poor-mediocre or just not happening.
Also, the team is soft. Leadership on the pitch is being seriously questioned here in PDX. People are also wondering if Spencer has lost the team or if there are other problems internally. The next 1-3 weeks will be interesting, to say the least.
Correct, and the accepted interpretation of "deliberate" includes a player moving his arm out from the body in an unnatural manner in order to make themselves bigger or otherwise create a distraction – when they do so (as I think was the case here) and the ball hits their arm, that's a penalty.
I don't understand how you watch that and say his arm was in an unnatural position. Before the ball even comes in to his foot he is turning away which brings his arms up, but still close to his body.
And yes, most refs do get it wrong. Most people watching and commenting on this seem to be getting it right, outside of this blog.
GW out!
Timbers Fan
Three. Three CDMs on the field.
Timbers Fan
Jewsbury is fine as a defensive mid, but a zero as an attacking mid.
The problem is with the USSF with all their additional ATR over analysis it causes more confusion. Fortunately in Canada we actually us the laws of the game.
Georges Drouin
As a Impact supporter, my view is that the team is coming together real well: good starting 11, good bench and improving defense.
As for the game vs Portland, Montreal had better control of the match, much better possession, quality opps, etc.
Nyassi should have received a card, maybe a red. My first reaction was his boot was too high and could have been better controlled.
As for the PK, it was a good call, i believe.
The Impact deserved to win, did and, for a team having played 6 of 8 games going vs Portland, are beginning to demonstrate they can be in just about every game t.b. played.
Next couple will confirm this. W Rivas coming back, Thomas as a good back-up, w Valentin not distracted w US Olympic focus, the defense will only get better. Also, there should a DP or two t.b. announced in the next 8 wks.
The Impact's only bad game was vs. ReBull and Thierry. And in that game, they could have led by 2 goals going into the 2nd half.
In Montreal, we expect our teams to win championships. It's in our DNA. This drives everybody at the Impact: from Joey on down to the players, from Nick to Jesse and so on.
What I like about Jesse is his team focus, his personal commitment to success on the field from one game to the next and his way of evaluation progress. No everybody sees this when evaluation Impact performance. But believe me, it's in how Montreal wins Championships.
Georges Drouin
My third para should have read:
As for the PK, it was a good call, i believe.
The Impact deserved to win, did and, for a team having played 6 of 8 games on the road going vs Portland, are beginning to demonstrate they can be in just about every game t.b. played.
Don't kid yourself. Impact deserved the win, but Timbers are in terrible form. Ugly game all around.
Correct. Ugly, ugly game that Montreal deserved to win. Timbers are a joke and it is only a matter of time before Spencer gets sent packing.
