Book 1, Chapter 4: An Unwelcomed Arrival
On the open water, a boat appears and begins making its way across. Rey and Swift are at the front of it, looking out over the water. In the distance, the outline of the Fire Nation can be seen.
"We'll be there soon." said Rey with a sad look on his face
"What's wrong Rey?" asked Swift noticing his look and tone
"Oh it's nothing." he replied, but looked at Swift and saw he was unconvinced, "I've been in the Earth Kingdom my whole life, the closest I've gotten to the other nations was when a passerby would come to my village and bring news. Heck, the only time I've seen benders other than earth was during the race, it's a little unnerving to know that for the foreseeable future I'll be living near the capital of the Fire Nation."
"Is that a bad thing?"
"Bad? No. Different? Yes. I guess this is what you call culture shock. I've lived a small village for my whole life Swift. I've only seen it and the outlying forests when I went exploring, but I've never been to a city. You remember how I reacted when we arrived in Racton? Well the Fire Nation cities are supposed to be twice as big as that, I'm just trying to make sure I'm ready for it, not that I ever will be."
"I understand now, I felt the same way when I first crossed over into your world."
"Really? When was that?"
The wolf looked away for the first time and gazed out at the water, seemingly in remembrance.
"A very long time ago. I had been in the Spirit World for all my life, but felt an inexplicable urge to go into your world and see it firsthand with my own eyes. And so I did, and it was indeed very different from my own world."
"Yeah, mainly that we have this thing called color, it does wonders on the world."
Swift chuckled, "Agreed, but just like you I had to adjust. As I did, I felt my connection grow stronger to your world, and over time as I jumped back and forth the connection continued to grow. Because of that, I am able to help you now in your quest."
"So let me guess, you're saying that I have to suck it up and give it a shot?" asked Rey
"I wouldn't have used those words...but yes, suck it up kid." replied Swift with a chuckle
This caused Rey to laugh, and when he was done with that he had a smile on his face. Swift again looked at him, pleased that he made Rey feel better
"That's better." said Swift, "I know this is hard, but trust me when I say that the Fire Nation is a wondrous place full of good people. Give them a shot, be nice and courteous, and they'll be the same in kind."
"Yeah yeah, your right." acknowledged Rey
"Of course I'm right, I'm a spirit after all."
At this they both laughed and then just stared out at the ocean, then at the Fire Nation that was drawing ever closer. Within an hour they were able to see the Fire Nation in all its beauty. What they could see was indeed majestic, buildings of all shapes and sizes were filling up the sky, but what caught Rey's eye was how different they were from Racton. For instead of being pure modern construction, it had more like a hybrid look. There were massive buildings that showed the modern style, but there were also temples and other buildings that had a more traditional touch to them. This made Rey happy, and made him feel at home.
As the boat pulled into the dock. Rey and Swift got off and started heading to the middle of the city. Much like in Racton, they both marveled at what was around them. Stores again filled the streets, but much to Rey's surprise, they didn't sell just modern trinkets, they sold a variety of traditional items as well. In one particular clothing store there was a divide in the middle, on one side was a modern clothes section, and the other a traditional clothes section. Much to his happiness he saw a bunch of people in the traditional side picking out clothes.
Leaving the store, they continued on to look for the temple where they would find the Firebending master Jimon. According to Master Graham he was one of the best Firebenders in existence today, and was an old friend of his who would be happy to teach Rey. Provided he gave him a scroll from Graham proving who he was and who sent him. But as time went on, they still hadn't found the temple. Getting frustrated that they hadn't found it yet, Rey broke away from his male instincts and asked a passerby where the temple was. The man told him how to get there, but warned him to not go there alone and went off.
"Well that was weird." said Rey as the man went off, "What do you think he meant by 'don't go alone'?
Swift shook his head, "I'm not sure, possible trouble at the temple perhaps?"
"Maybe," he replied, knowing it was a possibility, but didn't feel right, "well we won't know til we get there. Fortunately for me, I'm not alone, I got you, you can fight if need be right?"
"Yes," Swift stated simply, "but I won't fight unless it's absolutely necessary, I prefer to keep a low profile."
"I understand, you don't want people to know you're a spirit, that's fine. Besides, I think I can handle whatever is at or in the temple. Shall we go?"
Swift nodded, and the two followed the directions of the man and soon enough reached the temple. It was just as Rey figured it would be, traditional, expressive, majestic, but it's what it wasn't that worried Rey. Nothing seemed to be out of place, no sign that the temple was dangerous in any way. This confused Rey, because the man looked serious enough when he told them to not go alone. But what did he mean?
Rey looked at Swift and saw that the wolf had the same notions going around in his head. Both knew that they needed to go in, and so with a nod to each other they went up the steps and entered the temple. Once again, it was exactly what Rey expected it to be, the floor was solid, and had outlines of a combat training area. There were practice dummies and other tools to help perfect technique as well. Both Rey and Swift stepped onto the combat area and looked around, seeing where the master may be. But before they could find a door a voice rang out.
"Who dares enter my temple?"
Rey and Swift looked around for the source, but couldn't tell where the voice was coming from. Again the voice rang out, this time even louder.
"I said, who dares enter my temple?"
"Someone who doesn't like to hear voices in his head," Rey said then looked at Swift and whispered, "no jokes please."
"What business do you have here?" said the voice
"I have business with the master of this temple." replied Rey still looking around for a body to match the voice
"You have found the master." said the voice
From behind Rey a door slid open, and a person walked forward. It was a girl, dark black hair with blue eyes and a fierce look on her face. She looked to be no older than Rey, and as she walked toward Rey and Swift he noticed that she walked with an authority about her.
"What business do you have with me?" she asked sternly looking at the two
Rey struggled to contain a laugh, but was able to say with a straight face, "I said I have business with the master. You are not the master, or at least not the master I seek."
The girls eyes fired up as Rey contested her claim, "How dare you, how would you know who the master is or isn't?"
"Because," Rey said calmly though with a smile, "I was told to find Master Jimon, and I know that he is a man, and an older one at that, and since you're female and young, that kind of rules you out."
The girl was not amused, "Whether that is the case or not you will address me with respect, and wipe that smirk of your face, you should have no expression when addressing your superior."
This stung Rey and his smile faded and his expression turned sour, "Excuse me?" he said, trying to contain his emotions
"You heard me," said the girl, an evil grin appearing on her face, "I can tell from your clothes that you're Earth Kingdom, and by the style, you live in a small village or something of the like. Which means you're here to ask for our help in some trivial matter which is beneath us. So I'll say this simply: Get out!"
Rey stood very still for a few moments after the girl finished speaking. He then threw down the bags he was carrying, including the one with the scroll for Master Jimon, and got his arms loose for he knew what was coming.
"Let me tell you something lady. No one, and I mean no one, is superior to anybody. And if you think for one second that I'm going to leave because an arrogant, egotistical, little brat told me to? Well, you got another thing coming."
"Don't you dare talk back to me you whelp, now i'm telling you for the last time, get you and your little mutt out of my temple!"
Swift growled at the girl, Rey had had enough, he clenched his fists and began to shake, "Girl, you can insult me, insult my kingdom, insult what I believe in all you want. But no one insults my dog."
The girl smiled, "Well, if you were of my kind I would challenge you to Agni Kai, but since you're not, we'll just straight-up fight. Which is great for me, I hate playing by the rules."
Without warning the girl jumped forward and launched a fireball at Rey, he blocked it by raising up a wall of earth from the combat floor.
"My turn." said Rey
He then with a punch broke the wall into chunks, and pulled them apart giving him a bunch of ammo. With them, he flung the debris at the girl, who jumped and dodged out of the way then attacked again.
Back and forth the two went, the girl would hurl fireballs and shoot flamethrowers at Rey, who would block and then try and hit her with the earth at his disposal. They continued on until Rey backed up against a wall and noticed he couldn't go anywhere, the girl noticed too.
"Let's take this outside!" she yelled before running forward toward Rey
He raised a wall to stop her, but this time she went right through the wall of earth, grabbed Rey, and broke through the temple wall launching them outside, then hitting the ground hard. The girl got up quickly, but Rey, who took the brunt of the fall, took longer to get up.
The girl smirked and said, "Ready to give up?"
Rey laughed as he got up, "Well I'll give you round one. But it's time for round two!"
With a sudden movement of his arms, Rey raised some earth blocks and got the girl in the chest, knocking into the air before hitting the ground. It was her turn to be angry, and again she charged at Rey palms alight with fire. Rey took the same initiative, and pulled some rocks from around him and formed them around his arms giving him some solid earth fists.
For the next few minutes the two battled in close-quarter-combat. They each launched a flurry of punches, kicks, and other techniques at each other to get the upper hand. Finally seeing an opening, Rey kicked the girl away, and before she could recover hit her in the chest with his earth fist. The girl flew far, and landed near an area with people, who were surprised at her sudden entrance. She got up and screamed in rage, then charged back towards Rey, unleashing a fierce and fiery assault that put him back on the defensive.
As the contest continued more and more people started to watch with looks of awe and horror. Rey and the girl didn't take much notice, they were too focused on each other. The battle raged on with no foreseeable winner, but Rey would not be denied this time. When he saw the girl hesitate for an attack he trapped her feet, then launched wave after wave of earth on her, hitting from all angles until she started to waver. Rey then went in close and delivered a fierce blow that knocked her flat to the ground. The crowd reacted with a mixture of gasps and cheers.
When he was sure she was down, he relaxed order to catch his breath. She was good, that was for sure, but she definitely wasn't superior.
"Well sunshine, it looks like I win round two. You wanna go again?" he said breathing heavy but still smiling
She slowly got up, a look of pure hate was on her face. She grimaced as she slowly got to her feet, but she wouldn't let him win, not like this.
"You...little...whelp!" she said through clenched teeth, "Who do you think you are? You think I'm going to give up just because you knocked me down?!? I will never give up until you are dead, or I am!"
Rey scoffed and returned to his fighting position, "Bring it sister!"
With a scream she ran at Rey and began to attack again, her element seemed to thrive under anger, because every time she launched a fire attack it seemed to be more consuming and vicious than before. This actually began to worry Rey, he was wondering who was in control, her or the fire. Rey went back on the defensive, and soon realized that she wasn't caring about who got hurt by her attacks, as long as Rey got hurt by them. This was confirmed when she unleashed a flamethrower that she made follow Rey as he tried to dodge it, the flames got dangerously close to the civilians, who instead of running was rooted to their spots.
The fighting continued to intensify as it went on, the girl seemed to be losing control the more that Rey kept surviving her attacks. Rey wasn't able to attack much, and when he did she seemed to not be affected by them, or at least not that he could tell. He began to try and contain her by rooting her to the ground, but whatever grip he got on her she quickly broke.
From the corner of his eye, Rey saw two kids run into the area where he and the girl where fighting, clearly not knowing what was going on. He broke off his attack to get to them and get them out. The girl looked at Rey running and smiled, she looked up and saw that there was a scaffolding above where he was running to, and decided to prove how superior she was. She unleashed a fierce fireball attack, and the wall above Rey and the kids exploded. Both it and the scaffolding began to fall to the ground. Rey barely got there in time, and pushed the kids out of the way as the wall came crashing down and fell upon Rey.
The crowd gasped at what had happened. Rey couldn't be seen in the rubble, and there was no movement to be found to suggest he was alive.
The girl, breathing heavily, was now calm from her apparent victory, and smiled before turning to walk away. Suddenly the crowd gasped loudly, and began to mutter to themselves. Confused, she turned around to see what they were looking at, and she went wide-eyed. The wall that had fell on Rey was on fire, but it wasn't her doing. The fire continued to spread, and from the rubble rose Rey, as she looked at him she saw two things. One, his look, it was of pure hatred, and it was directed all at her. The second was that each palm was alight with fire. He was Firebending, but he was an Earthbender, she didn't understand...and then...
"You're the Avatar." she said suddenly horrified
Rey didn't respond, but simply glared at her. The crowd began to murmur with the revelation of Rey as the Avatar. The girl began to tremble at what she had done, but didn't back off. Then Rey smiled, a very evil smile.
"Round three's not over." he said his voice now dark, "Let's finish this."
With a roar he unleashed an intense fire at her, which she barely dodged in time. And by the time she could reacquire her stance Rey was on her, attacking with a fury that was not there before. Attack after attack he unleashed on her, each more powerful than the last. She could do little but try and block his attacks, but no matter what she did Rey broke through and continued his own attacks. Finally, with a combination move he knocked her to the ground and raised his arm to deliver the finishing blow, when....
"STOP!" rang out a voice.
Rey stopped, and seemingly returned to his senses. He looked to where the voice came from. From down the way a tall grizzled man was looking intensely at him. He slowly walked toward him and the girl, and when he reached them he looked intently at them both. He didn't say anything, but the girl did.
"Father..." she said weakly but he raised a hand to stop her from talking
"Not a word Raya," he said calm but stern, "get up and come here."
With a quickness she did so, and stood next to her father. The man then looked at Rey, and did not waiver in his gaze for several minutes, then he addressed him.
"I assume that you are Rey?" he asked with an air of already knowing the answer
Shaking slightly Rey nodded, "Yes, I am Rey, are you Master Jimon?"
The man nodded in response, and then looked over to the rubble where only a few minutes ago Rey was under.
"I saw what you did, why did you save those kids? You could have lost the fight."
Puzzled at first, but sure of the answer, Rey responded, "Then I would've lost. The fight was between me and her. The kids were innocent, and I wanted to make sure they didn't get hurt by what we were doing. So when they ran onto our battleground I ran over to get them out. Your daughter, in her state, didn't see them and thus decided to literally bring the house down on me without a second thought. I could only save myself or them...I chose them."
Master Jimon continued to look at Rey as if to see if his answers were true or fabricated.
With a nod and a smile he addressed Rey, "You are truly how my good friend Graham described you. Selfless, yet passionate and unyielding. An interesting combination for the next Avatar. Please return to the temple as I straighten things out here, I won't be long. Raya, go with him and do not cause trouble, for you are in enough already! I will see you at the temple Rey."
With a hesitant look, both Rey and Raya walked together back to the temple. They didn't talk, they didn't even look at each other, both of them were in their own little worlds as they approached the temple and entered it at the same time. Swift was there, he hadn't left the entire time, but when he saw Rey he dashed over to make sure he was alright. Rey patted him on the head and motioned over to the far wall. When he reached it he slid down into a sitting position, thoroughly exhausted from the fight. Raya did a similar action, but on the opposite wall, they both locked eyes and glared at the other. If they weren't so tired they surely would've gone again.
Swift sat next to Rey and looked at him, Rey shook his head to motion him off from having an open conversation, but by pointing to both of their heads asked if he could communicate with him the way he does.
With a nod Swift replied, "Yes you can. Project your thoughts towards me and i'll hear them."
A small smile on his face Rey said, "Testing...1...2...3"
Swift chuckled, "Funny guy, so what happened? I didn't follow after she drove you through the wall cause I didn't want to leave this place unattended, and I'm glad I did, cause Master Jimon came in a little while after your fight started. I was thankfully able to tell him where to go. I assume he caught up to you two?"
"Yep," Rey replied with his thoughts, "good thing to, by the time he got there we were going for fatalities, it was ugly."
"No offense, but you look ugly."
Not knowing what he meant, Rey looked at his body for the first time since the fight. Sure enough, Swift's assessment wasn't wrong. His arms were covered in cuts, bruises, and burns. It hurt just moving them around to see the damage. It was a wonder he kept fighting in his condition. He then touched his face and recoiled when he felt a long open cut near his cheek. If there was a Waterbender nearby he would ask them to heal it soon, or else he could get a lot worse.
"You going to be ok?" asked Swift
"Physically? Yeah. Mentally?...I'm not sure."
"She got to you that much?"
"It's not just her, it's what she made me do, I always fight to win don't get me wrong, but near the end of the fight she endangered some civilians. I saved them, but got crushed underneath some rubble. When I was under it I...well, let's just say I went to a dark place, and when I got up I could Firebend."
"Yeah, but it came at a cost, because I wanted to hurt her...badly. It seemed to be my only motivation, and I came close to finishing her off when Jimon arrived. When he told us to stop I was able to come back to my senses and control myself, but a few seconds later...I don't know what would've happened."
"And that bothers you?"
"You bet it does! She was just as driven as I was, she wanted to finish me just as much as I wanted to finish her. I'm not like that Swift, I don't intentionally want to hurt people. Stop them, teach them a lesson, but never hurt or maim, she got me to go that far. It wasn't a fight, it was a war, and we both lost in our own ways."
Swift didn't know what to say, he had never seen Rey like this. So he laid down next to him and waited for Master Jimon to return.
Rey meanwhile returned his attention to Raya, who apparently hadn't broken eye contact with him since she sat down. He looked at her and noticed she too had a bunch of scratches, cuts and bruises. It gave him a small amount of pleasure to know she was just as hurt as he was. For minutes on end the two stared at the other, not willing to break eye contact, as if somehow this was the next round of their fight.
Then the door of the temple slid open, and Master Jimon stepped through. He stepped onto the combat area, which was torn up considerably during the fight, and motioned for the two to come over. The two slowly got up, still sore from the fight, and made their way to where Jimon was. When they arrived he addressed them.
"That little stunt you pulled took a lot of explaining to some very important people." he said with the look of a father disappointed with his two children, "But because no one was seriously injured, other than yourselves, and because Rey saved those kids during the fight, there will be no penalty against either of you."
"Nor should there be." scoffed Raya
"Thank you Master Jimon." said Rey simply
Jimon laughed as he heard their responses, "You two truly are polar opposites, no wonder you both fought. And though I don't approve, I heard it was a glorious spectacle showing just how capable you two are. I'm sure you will be great sparring partners for the task ahead."
"Hmph." said Raya
"Whatever you say." replied Rey
Jimon shook his head but did not comment on it, instead he said, "Now before we can continue, I insist that you both get healed, I happen to know a Waterbender close to here so I will go fetch him. You two stay here, oh, and once again, don't cause trouble."
He didn't wait for them to respond this time, he simply spun around and left. Raya and Rey, who were only a few feet away, once again stared at the other. But this time it didn't stay quiet.
"Don't think this is over." said Raya the moment her father was out of earshot, "I might concede that you won today, but that's only because I didn't know you were the Avatar, next time you won't be so lucky."
"Is that a fact?" asked Rey, "Let me tell you something Raya, I can't stand people like you, people who think they're better than everyone else, it makes me sick. You didn't care about who was going to be hurt in our fight so long as I was a victim, I bet you didn't even notice those kids or the crowd around us. You are reckless, and impulsive, and you put people at risk every time you fight. So you wanna go? Fine. Just let me know when, cause as long as I breathe I will be here to stop you."
With a scoff Raya turned her back on Rey and Swift and went to the door she used earlier.
Now just Rey and Swift remained in the area, and the two returned to the wall and relaxed, both waiting for the Waterbender to arrive. Swift had his eyes on the door that Raya went through.
"We just made our first enemy didn't we?" asked Swift
"Yep, that's a good possibility." replied Rey
"How do you think it's going to end?"
"Well to be honest there's only three ways it could end. First we somehow work it out and become friends."
Swift chuckled, "At this point in time, I would doubt that."
"Indeed," said Rey with a small chuckle himself, "the second is that we tolerate each other long enough for one or the other to leave and not come back."
"Well, being that you're the Avatar, and you have to learn the other elements, there's a good chance of that happening. What of the third?"
"The third..." Rey hesitated for a moment because he didn't want to admit that this was actually the more likely possibility, but he couldn't lie to Swift, "the third is that our hatred towards each other just continues to build up, and up, and up. Until one day we simply cannot stand the sight of the others existence...and we will fight...and one of us will not leave the fight alive."

Following a humiliating 6-1 defeat to Ghana, many people in Egypt called for national team head coach Bob Bradley to be fired as soon as possible.
However, the Egyptian FA has decided to keep Bradley on as coach for the second leg at home against Ghana, even though it's looking very likely that Egypt's dream of returning to the World Cup for the first time since 1990 is over. Despite going undefeated in the second round of African World Cup qualifying, Egypt were handed a tough draw against Ghana and couldn't stand up to the test on Tuesday.
"It is not logical to sack him [Bradley] and pay a big fine for the last match of his contract," Egyptian FA President Gamal Allam told BBC Sport.
That fine is reported to be $366,000 if he is released of his duties before the end of his contract, which likely is either in December or after the World Cup next summer.
Here are some more stories to start your Thursday:
Spain and Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas has faced a difficult period in his playing career in the last ten months, with his club starting position seemingly gone.
Both Jose Mourinho and current Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti have preferred Diego Lopez to start in La Liga every week at goalkeeper, with Casillas only starting in UEFA Champions League games or other mid-week matches. However, Casillas isn't interested in leaving the only club he knows for more playing time.
Of course I'd like to play but you need to respect the coach, it's his decision," Casillas told Spanish publication Diario AS. "A player, from a selfish point of view, will always want to play, but a good professional accepts it. I'd like to be at Real Madrid forever because it's what I've dreamed of doing since I was kid. What I need to do is train harder so I can play."
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admitted on Thursday at Arsenal's Annual General Meeting (AGM) that there was unrest 12 months ago in the wake of the sale of Robin Van Persie to Manchester United.
The London club sold the Dutch striker after a season when he scored 30 goals in the Premier League, but after taking some time for Santi Cazorla, Lukas Podolski, and Olivier Giroud to gel into the squad, Arsenal played much better in the second half of the season.
"We lost Van Persie, created a lot of unrest and destabilized the team," Wenger said, transcribed by The Telegraph. "But from November to May team showed fantastic mental strength.
"From the end of March to today, we have lost just one match, that created a huge emotion."
Wenger reiterated again that with Arsenal's improved financial position, they can afford to sign more high-profile and major-money signings like Mesut Özil this summer.
"We will also look to buy proven quality – we did not need to scout to buy Özil, it was just money," Wenger said. "I am pleased we have shown you we are not afraid to spend."
Switzerland National Team manager Ottmar Hitzfeld announced on Thursday that he's retiring from coaching after the World Cup next summer. (REPORT)
England will announce late this week that they will finish their 2013 schedule with a friendly match at Wembley Stadium against Germany on November 19. (REPORT)
Galatasaray President Unal Aysal has denied the possibility of midfielder Wesley Sneijder rejoining his former coach Jose Mourinho at Chelsea. (REPORT)
UEFA have announced that "Le Rendez-Vous" will be the official slogan of UEFA Euro 2016. (REPORT)
AC Milan are interested in acquiring left back Jordan Lukaku, the brother of on-loan Everton forward Romelu Lukaku. (REPORT)
What do you think of these reports? Did you expect Bradley to be sacked? Do you see Casillas regaining his starting place at Real Madrid? Do you agree with Wenger's comments?
Share your thoughts below.
That's why CAF qualifying is so difficult. You go undefeated, have one bad (terrible) game, and you're out. I think the CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, Asia have the best methods for sending their best representatives to the World Cup.
No kidding. ONE bad game and you are almost out? Ugh.
Not sure why Africa doesn't use Asia's setup to determine their WC teams. They might need to add one more early round of H2Hs to get the number of teams down, but no reason their last 10 or so teams shouldn't have a group stage.
I believe the answer to this is $$$$. Not enough resources to put on more qualification games than the existing format.
In another Thursday morning news item, Will Packwood has been loaned out for a month to the Bristol Rovers. Great news in his continuing recovery from his horrific leg injury. Hopefully he will be playing on Saturday.
is there a lower form of compliment for a coach than 'we'd fire him, but it would cost a lot"? really sucks how this whole situation shook out for Bradley…
The Imperative Voice
Egypt is like the Canada of CAF. Canada has won 2 Gold Cups and made 4 regional semis. But they have only qualified for the World Cup once, 27 years ago (86). Egypt has won 7 ACNs including 06, 08 (why they were in Confed Cup when we met), and 10, plus a runnerup and several semis. But they have two trips to the Big Dance and the last was 90.
I think the criticisms of the CAF qualifying formula are more general useful than strictly provable. Egypt qualified out of a soft group like we did and then got trounced in the opening leg agains a high level team. They fit somewhere in between, but are they one of Africa's 5 best? Who knows. But a more round robin setup at the end would more likely produce the best teams as opposed to those who receive nice draws. I'm sure Ghana still makes it but Egypt would have their shot too.
Far as the rest goes, it's a results business, he just got clobbered, and that kind of flop at Gold Cup lost him the previous job. It's not necessarily fair. It's hard to separate out a decent CAF team already from what Bradley added in the situation. You'd think that would have given him some leeway but he didn't get any slack from World Cup success to Gold Cup stutter when the team was stumbling and then lost to Panama and Mexico.
why was Casillas dropped from the line-up to begin with? Problems with Mourinho and now the new manager? He's still 1 of the top 10 best GKs in the world. a year ago he was arguably top 3
Why would they fire Bob Bradley anyway? Forget the fine. That loss had nothing to do with Bradley's lineup, strategy, or defensive plan. The Egyptian players just couldn't match Ghana's raw power at any position. They showed cohesion and had some good passing sequences, but every time Ghana got the ball, it was a nightmare. Ghana's midfield was way better, their forwards were too strong and too fast for the slight Egyptian defense. The man gave you a shot at the World Cup. You got the worst draw imaginable. Let him see out his contract without the histrionics.
Listen, I'll give props all day to BB for gutting it out and keeping that team together through incredibly difficult circumstances. But this idea that he "gave" them a shot at the World Cup is misleading.
Yes, he went undefeated in group play. But it was an incredibly easy group. And the reason they drew Ghana in the knockout stage has a lot to do with their failure last year to qualify for the African Cup of Nations. They lacked competitve results, fell in the rankings, and weren't seeded for the draw. This stuff happens.
He showed that he has the chops to get another chance after this. But he won't be the first (or last) manager to be out the door because of one embarrassing result.
Oh oh. Does this portend a Round of 16 show down USMNT versus Ghana…say at the Maracanã in Rio? These things come in Trilogies.

India is on the way to joining an elite club which today has only the US and Japan among its members.
India will launch on October 12 a satellite dedicated to studying climatic and atmospheric changes in the tropical regions. The project is a collaboration between the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) and the French space agency.
India, hence, becomes only the second country to launch such a space mission after the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), the joint space mission between the US-based National Aeronautics Space Administration (NASA) and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) designed to monitor and study tropical rainfall. But, that satellite was launched way back on November 27, 1997.
While the TRMM spacecraft in a similar low orbit is at an inclination of 35 degrees to the equator, Megha-Tropiques will orbit at a low inclination of 10-20 degrees to north-south of the equator to enhance observational capability of the rapidly-developing tropical systems and will enable monitoring of weather and climate over the entire tropical regions, ISRO Chairman K Radhakrishanan said.
"If all goes well, we will launch the satellite on October 12 to an orbit of 870 km with an inclination of 20 degrees to the equator to study the lifecycle of convective systems and their role in the energy and moisture budget of the atmosphere in tropical regions," Radhakrishnan said.
Megha-Tropiques, the satellite, is made of two words — 'Megha which stands for cloud in Sanskrit and 'Tropiques' which is French for tropics. The satellite is dedicated to studying climatic and atmospheric changes in the tropical regions in collaboration with the French space agency.
ISRO is giving the final touches to the ambitious Indo-French advanced tropical climate monitoring satellite which is expected to be launched from the Sriharikota spaceport, SHAR, on October 12.
As a joint venture between the two countries, the ISRO will bear the launch cost of Rs 90 crore. For the satellite payload, ISRO has incurred a cost of Rs 80 crore and the French space agency — Centre National d'Études Spatiales (CNES) has contributed Rs 300 crore.
Of the three instruments aboard the satellite, MADRAS has been built jointly by the
ISRO and CNES, while other two have been built by the French space agency. About 30 minutes after lift-off, the ISRO's telemetry, tracking and command network (ISTRAC) will take control of the satellite and the instruments on-board will be switched on during the following three weeks.
The 1,000-kg satellite will be launched onboard the 230-tonne Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) from the spaceport at Sriharikota, SHAR.
The satellite will carry an Imaging Radiometer Microwave Analysis and Detection of Rain and Atmospheric Structures (MADRAS), a six-channel humidity sounder (SAPHIR), a four-channel Scanner for Radiation Budget Measurement (SCARAB) and GPS Radio Occultation System (GPS-ROS), Radhakrishanan added.

French Love
Not my first boyfriend, but a great memory.
We had met at a party.
I was on a student exchange in France, living there for three months with my 'twin' who was a french girl one year older than me. She was in grade eleven, but had a myriad of older friends. One of these friends, who was graduated and turning 18 that year, had invited my 'twin' to her birthday party. My 'twin' had invited me to come along,( seeing as we spent almost all of our time together) and told me that FRENCH parties were the best!
I was excited, back home I hadn't really "partied" much; I was only fifteen and my crowd of friends had just gotten out of the themed birthday parties a few months ago..
Anyways, I was so nervous on the drive to the party. I didn't really speak the language, and wasn't really sure how to act at this party. I had only ever had a few drinks with my family at New Years & Christmas morning, so I wasn't sure what the 'norm' was.
When we got there, everyone introduced themselves and gave me 'le bises'. (Kisses on the cheek) It was fun! I was still a little nervous and wouldn't leave my 'twins' side.
Eventually after a few drinks I became less nervous and more chatty. People loved me! I was the 'Canadian Girl'. They thought my accent was so cute, and thought it was hilarious when I corrected their terrible english.
There had been this one guy, this crazy hippie looking guy, with long curly brown hair who had kept to himself most of the night, playing a guitar. Well, I could probably just tell you right now that I was already so attracted to him, and I hadn't even met him! He looked so sexy and cool just sitting there strumming away.
After the dancing died down and a few of the kids went outside for a smoke, him & I were left alone. He smiled an awkward but friendly smile at me, and walked outside. Just then, my 'twin' had stumbled out of the bathroom, and wrapped her big black scarf around my neck pulling me outside after her.
Everyone was hanging around in a big cirlce, sitting down in chairs. There happened to be a chair next to this mysterious boy, and I took the chance and sat beside him. Once I was sitting, he looked over at me and said "salut" (Hi in french) I was so stoked! He said 'HI' to me! Of course I said hi back, and that got us talking. He asked me basic questions, like my name, how I knew the birthday girl, and where I was from. He was shocked when I told him Canada. He said he knew I had an accent, but he would have never guessed that french wasn't my first language. I had blushed. He was so sweet.
Once the cold of night chassed everyone inside, it was once again just him and I left. I was kind of happy.
We sat outside for hours shivering and talking. We had talked about so much, most of it was french grammar, but I didn't care.
My 'twin' came outside after a few hours and said that it was time to go. Her mom was there to pick us up. I felt kind of sad, I had just gotten to really know this boy, and didn't want to leave. But of course I had to, so I said goodbye and we left.
My 'twin' knew I had liked him, and told me she thought he was cute.
Later that night, around 2:30 am, about a half hour after we arrived at home the mysterious boy texted my 'twin'. He had told her that he thought she was really cool, and thought that I was really cool too! He asked if he could have my cell phone number so that he could answer a few of my questions he didn't have time to answer! I was so happy! I couldn't believe it! He asked for my cell phone number! So, my 'twin' said of course and gave him my number. He instantly texted me, and we stayed up until 5 in the morning texting.
A few weeks later, after hanging out a few times he had asked me to go to a place called "Bellecour". A place in the middle of Lyon, France that was a beautiful open courtyard. In this courtyard, there was a massive ferris wheel type thing that over looked all of Lyon. Once we were there he asked me if I was afraid of heights; I said no. As soon as I had answered he took my hand ran over to the ticket booth, and bought two tickets. Once we were seated on the ferris wheel, he took my hand once more and looked at me. As soon as we were at the top he asked me to be his girlfriend.
It was the most romantic thing I had ever experienced. No movie, song, or anything like that had ever made me feel the way I felt right then. I was so in love with him, and in that moment it was totally clear that that was what love felt like.
I said yes.
He had smiled, and leaned in for a kiss.

Definition: Cobalt, a naturally occurring element, is used in the manufacture of aircraft engines, magnets, grinding and cutting tools, artificial hip and knee joints. Radioactive cobalt is used to treat cancer patients and to irradiate food. Normal exposures to nonradioactive cobalt are not harmful, but large amounts of radiation from radioactive cobalt can damage cells and cause nausea, vomiting, coma and even death. The International Agency for Research on Cancer has determined that cobalt and cobalt compounds are possibly carcinogenic to humans.
Definition: Nickel, a metal, can be combined with other metals to make coins, jewelry, and stainless steel. People working in nickel refineries or nickel-processing plants have experienced chronic bronchitis, reduced lung function, and lung and sinus cancers. EPA classifies nickel refinery dust and nickel subsulfide as human carcinogens. Source: EPA, HHS
Definition: Chromium is present in the environment in several different forms, some harmless and some harmful. Chromium 3 is an essential nutrient that helps the body process sugars, proteins and fats. Chromium 6, produced by industrial processes, can in high doses cause convulsions, kidney and liver damage, and even death. The World Health Organization, EPA and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services have concluded that chromium 6 can cause cancer in humans.

Mayhem # 1986208
About MeHi, my name is Jesus Villegas.
I am a 22 year old freelance photographer living near the Twin Cities area.
I've been doing photography since the beginning of my high school junior year, but have never taken it serious until I graduated.
I made a MM page to help me expand the different genres of photography as well as to network with a variety of local MUA, hair stylists, and models.
When it comes to shooting I enjoy just about everything, whether it's a lifestyle to an editorial, fashion, fitness, body painting, artsy, swimwear shooting. I find it amusing to have at least a little bit of experience with all types of shooting.
I am always open for new ideas, if you send me a message on here with any concepts you have in mind for a shoot, I'd love to see what we could produce.

You've already decided on next year's Game of the Year? Huh.
It does look pretty, I'll give you that. Worth a rental just to look at. The 3D Final Fantasies haven't exactly been riveting in my experience, though. They've all been so very slow, that I've played (7, 10, and 12, I think). So I'm not sold until I know more, though I'll consider buying it just because I know I'll never finish it in a rental period.
Come on, friends,
To the bear arcades again.
It's gonna be awesome; they're just plain old good, fun-to-play games. TBH all the 3D ones post-PS1 have actually been quite fast and all great in their own right (except FF12's story was kinda busted); never played 11 online so can't comment. I'm definitely buying it; probably picking up Vs. XIII too, as PS3 exclusivity can only mean better graphics.
EDIT - PS1 games were all good too, PS1 just aged like absolute garbage (like almost everything else 3D on the console).
Edited on by SwerdMurd
Vs. XIII looks amazing. I'm much more interested in that, despite knowing next to nothing about it. Just has the cooler atmosphere / vibe to it. Weird name though. I was under the impression it was actually a multi-player title until someone corrected me recently. I don't understand Square's odd practice of developing and releasing multiple games of the same name around the same time. Seems like they should have spread them out.
Come on, friends,
To the bear arcades again.
@Adam - That's a relatively recent trend; and I don't know if it can so be called due to the fact that this is really only the second example of that (the only other example of close-to-this would be the FFVII-related onslaught a few years back). Regardless, the whole FFVII IP cash-in worked pretty well for SE (everything sold plenty of copies) so I doubt they're gonna fix what isn't yet broken.
EDIT: Agito XIII for PSP looks awesome as well
Edited on by SwerdMurd
I may actually pick up a PS3 in order to buy Vs. XIII. I want that game a lot more than XIII, much more interesting.

I doubt Zelda Wii and Other M are gonna get GoTY....and MG 2 is a direct sequel. Again, assuming XIII will before release isn't any more feasible, but TP wasn't even close to GoTY and MG already happened once. Also, Prime already GoTY-ed so there's that "let's not seem biased towards the Metroid series" that works against it. I see no reason to assume these titles have any higher of a chance than XIII.
FF 13 does, in fact, look amazing! Though 360 gamers have to wait longer than PS3 gamers, I can still hold out!
Twitter - Infernape1000
Youtube - Infernape1000
@Infernape - they're releasing simultaneously in the US; that's why it's taking so long in development, unless the news has changed.
Edited on by SwerdMurd
I hope the story is ALOT better then FF12!!
I also hope the music will be great too,shame that Nobuo Uematsu won't be making the music IIRC.
btw,I'm getting the 360 version.
I hear its amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on hari-kiri rock!!! I NEED SCISSORS!!! 61!!!

I'm in the market for a tablet to make my life using the GIMP easier. I've looked longingly at them in stores but my credit card stayed in my wallet and I resisted the temptation! Now, I'm seriously thinking of making a purchase and wondering which one to go for.
After some initial problems Richard Querin got his Wacom Graphire3 working and I know there's the Linux Wacom Project but they're not the only show in town. What about other manufacturers?
As a photographer, has using a tablet helped you? Has it made it easier to work on photos? Is it easier to apply large changes like dodging and burning a whole image?
And finally, red or blue pill?
You better be good at hill starts if you live in San Francisco! I presume it's slightly easier with an automatic transmission rather than manual?
Highly processed image via multiple tools in the GIMP until I came up with an effect I liked – multiple layers, b/w, gaussian blur, layer modes and more.
I had to rotate the image at first and reconstruct parts of the image, but I think it came out reasonably well!

You've got to be optimist to be a Democrat, and you've got to be a humorist to stay one.
The aristocrat is the democrat ripe, and gone to seed.1850 Representative Men,'Napoleon, the Man of the World'.
Michael Foot, who has died aged 96, was a supreme parliamentary democrat who used his great gifts as an inspiring speaker and writer to urge peace, security, prosperity and opportunity for humanity and punishment for bigots and bullies of every kind. His bravery and generosity were unsurpassed. He used both to ensure that the Labour party survived as a political force when self-indulgent factionalism could have doomed it to irrelevance.michael foot
A person is not a democrat thanks to his ignorance of literature and the arts, nor an elitist because he or she has cultivated them. The possession of knowledge makes for unjust power over others only if used for that very purpose: a physician or lawyer or clergyman can exploit or humiliate others, or he can be a humanitarian and a benefactor. In any case, it is absurd to conjure up behind anybody who exploits his educated status the existence of an "elite" scheming to oppress the rest of us.jacques barzun
A democrat by conviction rather than by temperament, urging democracy as 'the only method consistent with human instinct toward expansion,' he was yet an educator, and believed in equality upon a high, not upon a low plane. Like Ruskin , he demanded of men their best, and with less than their best refused to be satisfied.florence earle coates
We stand equally against government by a plutocracy and government by a mob. There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations; even a democrat like myself must admit this. But there is absolutely nothing to be said for government by a plutocracy, for government by men very powerful in certain lines and gifted with "the money touch," but with ideals which in their essence are merely those of so many glorified pawnbrokers.theodore roosevelt
In former days, men sold themselves to the Devil to acquire magical powers. Nowadays they acquire those powers from science, and find themselves compelled to become devils. There is no hope for the world unless power can be tamed, and brought into the service, not of this or that group of fanatical tyrants, but of the whole human race, white and yellow and black, fascist and communist and democrat; for science has made it inevitable that all must live or all must die.bertrand russell

If Karl Rove is watching today, Karl, I want you to hear me loud and clear: I am going to provide tax cuts to ease the burdens for 31 million American families — and lift hundreds of thousands of children out of poverty — by raising the taxes on 0.1 percent of families — those who make more than $1,000,000 a year. You don't have to read my lips, I'm saying it. And if that makes me an 'old-style' democrat, then I accept that label with pride and I dare you to come after me for it.wesley clark

Then the big white whale, Clinton . What about someone who is a war criminal, a taker of bribes from foreign dictatorships , almost certainly a rapist (plausibly accused, anyway, by three believable women, of rape), executed a black man (Ricky Ray Rector) who was so mentally retarded that he was unable to plead or to understand the charges You're against all that, right? But you're for it when it's someone who you think is a "New democrat".christopher hitchens
Nearly everyone who is unemployed votes "democrat." Nearly every immigrant, at least in the first generation, votes "democrat." Nearly every non-white American votes "democrat." The GOP know that so intellectually and financially bankrupt an administration should never have been re-elected – indeed, given the scale of electoral fraud practiced by the "Democrats," he may not actually have been re-elected (always supposing that he had the constitutional right to hold the office of president in the first place).christopher monckton

ep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), a senior member of the Intelligence Committee released the following statement after the President's press conference today:
"Today's announcement by the President that he is committed to making the intelligence community more transparent, as well as making changes to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and Section 215 of the Patriot Act is an encouraging development. The Administration and Congress must now work together to make this commitment a reality, and take the necessary steps to keep us safe,while also adhering to our Constitution and our national values.
It was especially heartening that the President is open to having an adversarial process in the FISC, and that he is willing to consider significant changes in the metadata collection program. For some time, I have been urging that the metadata program be restructured so that the data is held by the telecommunications companies rather than the government. I hope this is one of the reforms the President has in mind.
The proposals that the President laid out today address elements of a package of reforms that I am working on in the House. I look forward to working with the President on his proposals and on the areas that require Congressional action, including the need for FISA court judges to be confirmed by the Senate. While the President's actions today are a welcome step, Congress must act to make these changes lasting -- both in this and future Administrations."
Schiff has introduced several pieces of legislation to reform the FISA Court to increase transparency and accountability. First, Schiff introduced the "Ending Secret Law Act" which would require the Attorney General to declassify significant Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) opinions, allowing Americans to know how the Court has interpreted the legal authorities created under Section 215 of the PATRIOT Act and Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act. Second, Schiff introduced legislation to require that the 11 judges on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) be nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. Finally, Schiff is planning on introducing legislation to require the Privacy and Civil Liberties Board to create a pool of attorneys with experience in Fourth Amendment or national security law to argue the side of the public when the government requests a surveillance warrant in the FISA Court.

Wolves 1 Burnley 2
Ten-man Burnley secured their Championship status in style with a convincing win at relegation-haunted Wolves.
Goals early in each half from Danny Ings and Martin Paterson earned the Clarets their first league double over the Old Gold since 1957... and left Wanderers' hopes of survival hanging by a thread.
The dismissal of Michael Duff – a late replacement for Kevin Long, who was injured in the warm-up – gave Wolves some hope and Nouha Dicko's 88th minute strike made for a frantic finish.
But Burnley held firm for a seventh away win of the season to end all lingering fears of the Clarets being dragged into a final-day relegation dogfight.
The Clarets were forced to make an 11th hour change to the scheduled starting line-up, with Long injured in the warm-up and replaced by Duff.
Otherwise, Sean Dyche opted for the team that kick-started the second half revival in last week's draw with Champions Cardiff City.
Holding midfielder David Edgar and striker Paterson were rewarded for their part in salvaging a draw, with wide men Junior Stanislas and Ross Wallace the men to make way.
The Clarets would have expected Wolves to come out all guns blazing, with manager Dean Saunders insisting that only two wins from their final two games would be enough to save them from relegation.
And Wanderers duly obliged with a storming start, with Tongo Doumbia trying his luck from Lee Grant's poor clearance, only for Grant to recover his ground and save comfortably.
But Burnley silenced Molineux in the seventh minute when Ings controlled Trippier's cross and fired an unstoppable low drive past Dorius De Vries and into the far corner.
Incredibly, it was the 16th time Burnley had led in 23 league games away from home.
And there would be no way Dyche's men were going to let this one slip away.
The hosts were rocking and rudderless and midway through the half they somehow kept the score to just one as Burnley carved out another golden chance.
Trippier found Chris McCann on the right and from his low cross, Sam Vokes' flick was brilliantly parried by De Vries, who was helpless as Ings clipped the ball back across the face of goal only to see a Wolves boot hack the ball clear.
Burnley were playing as though the shackles had been released, with fluid movement from Ings and Edgar mopping up in front of the back four, who were being tested with a series of high balls and crosses into the box.
And from one deep cross, eight minutes before the break, Wolves had Grant under pressure and forced an error from the keeper that had hearts in mouths before Grant did well to block the resulting effort.
And on the stroke of half time, from the hosts' eighth corner, Edgar was in the right place to hack a far post header off the line and preserve the interval lead.
Wanderers were staring down a barrel, and within seven minutes of the restart their day went from bad to worse as the Clarets doubled their advantage.
Ings' right wing corner was cleared back to the taker and his low, drilled ball was rifled home at the near post following a deflection by Paterson.
Vokes almost hammered another nail in his former club's coffin moments later, spinning in the area and seeing his rising drive fly just over the crossbar.
There was a chink of hope for Wanderers in the 65th minute when Duff, booked in the first half for a trip on Doyle, saw red for another foul on the striker 30 yards from goal.
That meant Edgar, so impressive in front of the back four, dropped back to centre back as the Clarets reverted to two banks of four.
And soon after, young substitute Liam McAlinden almost halved the deficit with a terrific curling effort from the corner of the box that had Grant worried, but sailed just wide of the far post.
As Saunders' men poured forward to try and salvage their season, the threat remained at the other end though and Paterson was inches away from confirming the victory with a low shot across De Vries and just wide.
With time ticking away and the home crowd becoming increasingly restless, Substitute Dicko handed Wanderers a late lifeline, hammering the ball home inside the box from a corner.
But despite four minutes of stoppage time and a late aerial bombardment, the Clarets stood strong to grab the win - and survival - they deserved.

"Just moved to a new city and wanted calling cards to share new information. Also added a list of my 12 favorite books to the back of the card being a bibliophile and often meeting with other book lovers. Lots of compliments on these sweet and fun cards!"
"I love these business cards! They have the perfect touch of simplicity yet are also unique at the same time. I will be proud to give these cards out to friends, relatives, and business professionals. Overall, I'm very pleased with my order! Thank you."
"I am happy with my business cards. This is my 2nd time ordering my design. The only thing I would 'tweak' a bit is to have the font a bit larger. Other than that, these cards are lovely & the customer service is superb!"
"Card compliments the stickers and address labels I ordered nicely. Wish I could have gotten the same design for the card as for the stickers and labels, but it was not an option. Print could be a bit more crisp."
"I ordered these on a whim without ever seeing any TinyPrints' products. I was very happy with how they turned out. The fee might be pricey for some but I have an need for quiet, beautiful aesthetics and added the shimmery overlay. I used a personal photo for the back of the card that was taken at 12 or 16 megapixels."

ISLAMABAD: A five day collaborative workshop on "Impacts of globatisation on rural development in Afro-Asian countries was inaugurated here on Monday by Minister for Professional and Technical Training, Mian Riaz Hussain Pirzada.
The workshop is being held in collaboration with Akhtar Hameed Khan National Centre for Rural Development (AHKNCRD) and Afro-Asian Rural Development Organistaion (AARDO), a New Delhi based organization.
The workshop is being attended by 32 National/ international delegates from 13 South Asian, African and Gulf region countries, and representatives of the foreign missions.
The five days collaborative workshop will be concluded on Friday. The workshop is aimed to provide an opportunity to policy makers, planners and implementers in the AARDO member countries to deliberate and formulate an action plan for ensuring sustainable rural development in member countries.
Speaking on the occasion, the minister for Professional and Technical Training said his ministry was devising a strategy to train across the country young boys and girls to enable them to earn their livelihood on their own.
He urged the AARDO to continue support for improving the system of training and infrastructure of country's rural development institutions. Such workshops will also help improving the system of training and infrastructure of rural institutions engaged in capacity building of Rural Pakistan.
"The exchange of information and communication can emerge as a tool for providing access to the rural people for improving their livelihoods, capacities, infrastructure, connectivity, health, education and for management of the living environment," the minister said.
The workshop will provide an opportunity for sharing rich experiences and best practices in the field of rural development, he said.
He congratulated the secretary general and member countries on AARDO's golden jubilee celebrations being held in New Delhi in March this year.
Director General National Centre for Rural Development (NCRD) Brig (r) Amanullah said the NCRD was established in 1979 to meet the needs for capacity building of the stakeholders engaged in rural development in the country.
He said NCRD has so far trained over 18,000 persons. NCRD became a linked institution of AARDO on May 21, 1997. AARDO had provided a grant of $28,000 in the year 1999-2002 to undertake Action Research Pilot Project on `Provision of Micro Credit Facility and Enhancement of Local level savings for Poverty Alleviation in Pakistan' in Chakwal. The programme was successfully launched and completed.
He said NCRD looks forward to a great interaction with AARDO during years ahead particularly for the capacity building of Local Government and Rural Development Institutions at the Centre and in the Provinces.

Leahy might also renew his push for legislation that would make it a crime for a company to hide a data breach from its customers. The bill, which Leahy pushed in the last Congress, would also require businesses that store consumers' sensitive personal information to establish data security programs.
Leahy has also been active on the cybersecurity front and has authored legislation that would stiffen penalties for hackers.
Leahy authored the ill-fated Protect IP Act that was shelved early last year after Google, Wikipedia, Reddit and other websites launched online protests against the anti-piracy measure. Leahy has said he is committed to tackling copyright infringement online, but a Judiciary aide said he is taking a wait-and-see approach on anti-piracy legislation this year.
"The problem of Internet piracy and the sale of counterfeit products online has not gone away. Sen. Leahy continues to monitor law enforcement actions, significant developments in the courts and voluntary industry practices, and all those pieces will help him determine what next steps are appropriate," the aide said.
