WUSA (2001–03)[edit]
The team played its home games at Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium in Washington, D.C., where the team offices were also located. The team's "founding players" (players from the national team allocated three to each WUSA team) were Mia Hamm, Siri Mullinix and Michelle French. The team was expected by some to be one of the best in the league but finished seventh out of the eight teams their first season.
However, this finish allowed the Freedom to select Abby Wambach as their first pick in the 2002 WUSA draft. Additional personnel changes, better performance from retained players, and a Mia Hamm improved by off-season knee surgery led to a far better finish, as Washington went undefeated in their last eight matches and finished in third place (only two points out of first). In the postseason, they won their semifinal match against the Philadelphia Charge, 1–0, and went to the Founders Cup, the WUSA championship match, which they lost, 3–2, to the Carolina Courage.
In 2003, the Freedom were just good enough to make the playoffs, clinching the fourth and final spot with two games to go. However, they would go on to beat the regular season champion Boston Breakers in the semifinals, 0–0 (3–1 penalty kick shootout), and then defeated the Atlanta Beat in the Founders Cup, 2–1, in overtime. It was the last Golden Goal in a FIFA-sanctioned first-division league before the practice was changed.
Exhibition years (2004–05)[edit]
After the WUSA folded, the Freedom maintained an existence as the Washington Freedom Soccer Club, moving their home stadium to the Maryland Soccerplex and putting together a team called the Washington Freedom Reserves, which consisted of half-a-dozen players from the WUSA days along with young local players. In 2004, they played assorted exhibition matches against college and W-League teams and participated in the WUSA Festivals.
In 2005, the roster was significantly upgraded by adding former WUSA players like Tiffany Roberts, Kylie Bivens, and Emily Janss, as well as players Ali Krieger and Joanna Lohman from the U-21 National Team. The team also brought in former star soccer players Sun Wen and Brandi Chastain as guest players for one game each. In a season of exhibition matches, almost all against W-League teams, the Freedom compiled a 7–2–2 record.
W-League (2006–08)[edit]
The team became an associate member of the W-League in 2006 and played an exhibition season based on home-and-home series against east coast W-League teams. Then, on December 7, 2006, Washington announced that they had acquired a full W-League franchise.
In 2007, playing games that mattered for the first time since 2003, the Freedom compiled a 12–1–1 record, defeated the regular season champion Ottawa Fury in the Eastern Conference championship game, then went on to beat the Atlanta Silverbacks, 3–1, in the W-League championship match.
In 2008, the Freedom went 11–1–2 in the regular season, winning the Northeast Division, then defeated the Atlanta Silverbacks, 2–1, to capture the Eastern Conference championship, but then fell to the eventual W-League champion Pali Blues, 2–0, in the W-League semifinals.
Women's Professional Soccer: The first season (2009)[edit]
When the Women's Professional Soccer league formed in 2008, the Freedom became one of the original seven teams that started play in 2009.[4]
The coaching staff went to considerable lengths to retain as many players with past Freedom experience as possible.[5] The initial WPS player allocation, announced on September 16, 2008, assigned US Women's National Team players Abby Wambach, Cat Whitehill and Ali Krieger to the Freedom.[6] Wambach had played for the Freedom in 2002 and 2003, while Krieger played for the Washington Freedom Reserves in 2004 and 2005, and for the W-League team in 2007.
In the 2008 WPS International Draft, conducted on September 24, 2008, the Freedom selected Japanese striker Homare Sawa, French players Sonia Bompastor and Louisa Necib and Australian forward Lisa De Vanna.[7] Following the draft, the Freedom named Erin McLeod and Lene Mykjåland as post-draft discovery players.[8]
Following that was the 2008 WPS General Draft on October 6, 2008, and all of the players selected by the Freedom were from the Freedom's 2008 W-League roster: Sarah Huffman, Becky Sauerbrunn, Lori Lindsey and Emily Janss.[9] Lindsey had been on the Freedom roster since the final WUSA season in 2003, and Janss had been with the team since 2005.
The 2009 WPS Draft took place on January 16, 2009. The Freedom drafted Allie Long, Alex Singer, Jill Gilbeau, Parrissa Eyorokon, Briana Scurry, Rebecca Moros, Sarah Senty, Kati Jo Spisak, Claire Zimmeck, and Christen Karniski.[10] Additionally, the Freedom received the rights to Joanna Lohman in a trade with Saint Louis Athletica.[11] All of the players except for Long, Eyorokon, and Scurry had previous experience playing for the Freedom's W-League team.
Two players were added to the roster after tryouts and training camp: Kristin DeDycker and Madison Keller.[12] Keller had experience with the Freedom going back to 2004, while DeDycker (née Warren) had played for the Atlanta Beat in the WUSA.
McLeod was intended to be the starting goalkeeper, but visa issues kept her unavailable through the first five matches of the regular season,[13] and the Freedom had mixed success with Briana Scurry and Kati Jo Spisak in goal. Following her arrival, though, the Freedom won three out of the next six matches while only losing once.
Abby Wambach, meanwhile, was recovering from a broken leg and didn't feel fully recovered until late in the season, when she returned from national team duty having scored her 100th international goal.[14] She then went on a tear, scoring five goals and two assists in the team's final four games. The Freedom won three of those four matches and thereby clinched third place in the standings and a home playoff match. But despite looking strong going into the playoff match, and coming off a solid 3–1 victory over their opponents, Sky Blue FC, they put on a listless performance and were eliminated from the playoffs, 2–1.[15]
Women's Professional Soccer: season two (2010)[edit]
Unlike most of the other WPS teams, the Freedom made only limited changes in the offseason.[16] The marquee signing was of young forward Lene Mykjåland from the Norwegian national team,[17] followed by picking up Nikki Marshall, Beverly Goebel, Kristi Eveland, and Caitlin Miskel in the 2010 college draft.[18] The team then signed Christie Welsh, who had helped lead the 2007 Freedom to the W-League championship before being drafted by the WPS Los Angeles Sol and then traded to the St. Louis Athletica.[19] Brittany Bock was acquired in the dispersal draft to place former Los Angeles Sol players.[20] Marisa Abegg and Meagan McCray were brought in after going unsigned by their former WPS team, FC Gold Pride.[21] After the St. Louis Athletica folded, the Freedom signed their 2010 second-round draft pick Ashlyn Harris,[22] who went on to become the starting goalkeeper after Erin McLeod tore her ACL in a match on July 24.[23] On August 5, the Freedom traded their rights to Nigerian defender Faith Ikidi to the Chicago Red Stars for English national team defender Anita Asante.[24]
Players did not return for several reasons. Lori Lindsey and Sarah Senty were picked up in the expansion draft by the Philadelphia Independence, one of the two new WPS teams for 2010. Lindsey had originally joined the team in 2003 during its last year in the WUSA, while Senty joined the W-League team in 2007. Ali Krieger signed a two-year contract with FFC Frankfurt, keeping her there into 2012.[25] Other players with extended Freedom experience not re-signed included Emily Janss (since 2005), Joanna Lohman (2005), Kati Jo Spisak (2007), and Christen Karniski (2008). Additionally, Alex Singer, who joined the W-League team in 2007, was cut on August 5 to make room for Anita Asante.[26]
The Freedom started their season solidly in April and May, with a 4–2–1 record good enough for second place. However, in July and August they went on a ten-game winless streak ending with five losses in a row that put them out of playoff position and put head coach Gabarra's job in jeopardy. Longtime assistant coach Clyde Watson resigned and former Chicago Red Stars head coach Emma Hayes was hired as a consultant.[27] The team rebounded to finish the regular season 4–1–2, good enough for the fourth and final playoff position. That led to a road match against the Philadelphia Independence, which the Freedom lost on a goal from Amy Rodriguez in the waning seconds of overtime, wasting a superb performance from rookie backup goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris.[28]
Following the season, Gabarra announced his resignation, citing "irreconcilable differences" between himself and team management.[29]
Women's Professional Soccer: purchase, relocation, and termination (2011)[edit]
Financial troubles that had stirred in the background during the middle of the previous season came to the front during the offseason, with the longtime team owners finally deciding to back out after ten years of supporting the club. With multiple teams having trouble making offseason payments, the league was under threat of folding.
Dan Borislow, owner of the phone service MagicJack, bought the Freedom in 2011. He changed the team name to Magicjack and moved the team to Boca Raton, Florida. He quickly came into conflict with the players and owners of other teams and the league terminated the franchise on October 25, 2011, accusing Borislow of misconduct. The WPS subsequently cancelled the 2012 season and the WPS ceased to exist.[30]
Most recent squad[edit]

Competition history[edit]
The Washington Freedom was one of the eight professional soccer teams that played in the Women's United Soccer Association from 2001 to 2003. The team won the WUSA Founders Cup III in their final year, shortly before the league announced on September 15, 2003, that it was suspending operations. Unique among the WUSA teams, though, the Freedom maintained a continued existence, playing exhibition seasons in 2004 and 2005, then joining the USL W-League in 2006 and winning the W-League Championship in 2007. The Freedom became a part of Women's Professional Soccer that launched in April 2009 and participated in that league in 2009 and 2010. The team was then sold, moved to Florida, and renamed MagicJack.
Despite the addition of a professional team, the Freedom maintained an elite amateur team, which played in the W-League in 2009 and 2010, finishing second in the league in 2009.
Head coaches[edit]
- Jim Gabarra 2001–2010
- Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium, Washington, D.C. 2001–2004, 2008–present
- Maryland SoccerPlex, Germantown, Maryland 2004–present
While in the WUSA, the Washington Freedom played their home games in RFK Stadium in Washington DC. Since the WUSA ended, the Washington Freedom has played most of their home matches at the Soccerplex in Maryland. They have, however, continued to play some games at RFK as doubleheaders with DC United. These include games as the Freedom Reserves in 2004,[34] while in the W-League,[35] and since joining the WPS.[36] They played three doubleheaders in 2009[36] and one doubleheader in 2010.[37]

Date of Stay: June, 2016
Nice park over all, there are a few places towards the rear that have workers staying and it gets a little junky looking. We were in the F row on the way north and in the E row on the way south which was much nicer. Friendly staff and the escort you to your site to make sure you get in and hook ups are to your satisfaction.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
This place is mostly for permanent residents. There are a few sites for transients. The site we got was a back in. With trees on both sides of the road I attempted to back in, and after many tries I eventually pulled into a large site opposite mine to finally get straightened enough to back into the site. There is no TV cable hookup so you better have a satellite antenna because I was able to get maybe 3 channels and they were popping in and out on the rv antenna. There is a lot to do if you have a boat and the northeast river is not far away. That said there is not much to do if you don't. They did have bingo one night on the weekend. The store was open from 10 to 2 usually. Walking the dog around was not much fun with some large flies that would constantly buzz and try to bite you. We were travelling north to visit family and friends in Delaware and this was the closest camp we could find that was open. I would not stay again.
Date of Stay: June, 2016
We have stayed here many times before. This time on the road I called ahead early am to secure a site with the size of rig and tow vehicle. When we arrived they put us onto a site that fit the rig but not the pick up truck. I parked in the small site next to us, as long as no one showed up to use it. I asked to move to another site but staff didn't seem to want to do that even though there was no one on the sites that I was asking about. I believe staff should be able to move to a better site to accomadate the size of the rig and tow vehicle if the site that they assigned isn't big enough. I saw a small 15 to 17 foot scamper type trailer on a site that was way bigger than they needed and we were on a site that we fit but just barely. I later watched another fifth wheel attempt to pull into a site that he had to back into a site that he could have fit better only to pull forwards into a small site that was assigned him. He didn't have enough room to make the turn into his site without hitting a motor home on the other side of road. Not a great way to end the day after having been on the road for many hours to have this king of agrevation, very poor.
Date of Stay: January, 2016
We have stayed here several times while visiting family in the area. It is a great place and well maintained. Friendly staff shows you to site and makes sure you a located properly. Nice for walking around the park on paved roads, all concrete pad sites also. Small dog walking area, but outside the park you can walk along roadway for more excercise. Nice pool unfortunately it was too cool when we were there. Restrooms were very clean, and well taken care of. Laundry area was also very nice.
Date of Stay: January, 2016
Great place to stay when seeing friends or family off on a cruise. It is right next to the exit to the Atlantic and you get quite a view of the ship coming through the canal heading out to sea. The park is nice, concrete pad, we had a large tree dragging the roof of the rv and would not allow the antenna to go up or turn, without a trimming. Friendly staff and accommodating us with a better site than one that was too short for our rig. We enjoyed our stay here and will return again.
Date of Stay: December, 2015
We have camped here many times over the years. Convenient to Disney and many restaurants and shopping. It just doesn't seem like the owners or management care to do anything to perk up the place. Sites are adequate but poor drainage in some sites, trees or other obstacles in others. The restrooms were dirty, and at 9 am there was no toilet paper in any stalls when we were there. Water lines that are frequently broken by drivers running over them because they stick out of the ground in odd places. It would not take much to make this a better campground but it just seems to get by and no one seems to care. But location seems to trump fixing things as long as people continue to camp there.
Date of Stay: April, 2015
This is a owner owned campsite which when the owners aren't around anyone can rent the sites for a very pleasant stay. Clean and well maintained sites, but beware that dogs keep off the grass signs are everywhere. I walked ours out to the entrance roadway so as to not bother anyone in the park. Lots of high end motorhomes with a few fifth wheels and travel trailers scattered about when we were there in April. April happened to be quite hot and humid which I guess is the norm for Ft. Myers area, but it was easy to get into the park as most of the snowbirds had left. Very close to Ft. Myers Beach and Sanibel Island. Lots of things to do in the area, and restaurants a plenty for those who like to eat out. We arrived unfortunately during a spring break week and found the beaches quite crowded. We waited until the week was over before venturing back to the beaches again. Swimming pool and club house was very nice, with a bar area at the pool. We camped here in a fifth wheel and the sites were very large, we will be back again.
Date of Stay: April, 2014
This is a very nice park, only negative is if you are closest to I-295 then you get a lot of road noise. Nice lake and play areas for kids. They have a cafe that sells good food at reasonable prices so you don't need to run out after a long day on the road. We stayed one night and wished we had stayed a bit longer but we will go back again. Sites were decent, we had a back in near 295. The site had loose stone that made the truck wheels want to spin in it while backing into site, should have used a different type that hard packed like crusher run stone mix. All in all a nice place to stop for overnight or longer.
Date of Stay: April, 2014
We arrived checked in and were assigned a site. We drove to the site and it was being used by the propane truck. We called the office and a camp worker took us to some other sites to see if they would be a better fit. A lot of sites were short for a fifth wheel of 38 ft. plus a pickup, which by the way they say just park on the roadway in front of your RV. We finally found a site that was a bit bigger and my truck and RV fit on the site. All of the sites had stone bases and were very level, we had a back-in site. The electric box was so far forward I had to put my 50 amp and a 30 amp cord together to make it. If campgrounds would put the utilities in the center of the site it would make life much easier. Our rig has the electric connection in the rear if all sites were in the middle most cords would make it ok. The wifi worked ok, no problems. The dog walk area is located under the high tension wires but it gives them plenty of room to exercise. It is a pity that some dog owners do not pick up after there pets even though the campground provides doggy doo bags for them. We were able to drive to the Metro station and park to get to downtown DC for sightseeing. The park staff was very helpful with information on how to get around DC. The campground also has a cafe that has a well equipped kitchen and friendly staff. We stayed here for 5 days in a fifth wheel and we will be back again. This is a great place to stay and we have been here many times before. The campground is adding new cottages and a Lodge for people without campers to be able to enjoy the DC area.

Easy access to I-95. Nice clean park with well maintained level gravel sites. Only complaint on the sites is the sewer and electric are up near the front of the site and our electric is in the rear of the trailer. Needed two lengths of electric cable one 50 amp and a 30 amp to get to the box. I would recommend pulling a fiver up to the front and disconnect. Then park in the back of the site, that way the sewer hose and electric cable would be closer. TV is OK, but not a lot of channels. Internet service was OK, also. We would stay here again.,

This campground is close to I-95 and also comes with the noise from the traffic. The sites are dirt, sand, and some stone. It's a nice park but there are things that could be done to improve it. Lots of trees and roots in and around the site making it hard to walk or level the rig. Cable TV was terrible and not worth watching. Internet was spotty. It does have a nice storage facility for those needing to leave their rigs. Nice folks that run the park. Just didn't feel the park was worth the price but just my opinion.
Date of Stay: March, 2014
This campground could be so much better if the staff would do something to clean it up. After a rain the sites are soft and mushy. Some stone would make a big difference and make the sites better after a storm. There are old campers that haven't moved or been lived in for years located in the park. The good is the Passport price and the closeness to I-95. Flying J and the Denny's restaurant are a plus. Good food at Denny's and cleaner than most. This campground is an overnight stop and not much more. We stayed in a fifth wheel.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
We stay here on our way to Fl.and back again on the way home. Very friendly staff and will show you to your site. The campground was expanded with about 80 new sites mostly out in the open, no trees. The older section has trees and some hang down a bit as our site did, and dragged across our roof. I mentioned it to staff and they made a note to have it corrected. The sites are gravel/stone with many pull through sites. Easy access and exit from most sites. Nice dog park in both sections of the c.g. Take some caution here, our dogs stepped on some spikey things in the new section dog park and had to remove them with tweezers. Not sure what they are called someone said they were sand spurs or some such thing. No problem was found in the older section as it had more grass areas. We like this campground and will stay here again.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Very friendly staff, clean campground,seems to be well maintained. I had some trouble with my rv getting a tv signal and one of the staff riding around on a golf cart stopped to see if he could help. It turned out to be something on my rv and not the park service but the staff tried to help by testing the connection at the pole with another cable and tv to check it out. Nice dog park but did not see any doggie doo bags anywhere, this should be available near the trash can. Though there are always those who think they are too good to pick up their own dogs mess, no matter how much is provided for them. Anyway, the C.G. is located right next to I-95 but with an a/c on you don't notice it. And even outside sitting at the picnic table you hear it but it is not objectionable. All in all it is a very nice stop and the sites are all stone and fairly level, with easy entrance and exit. Some trees for shade but not a problem with hanging branches they seem to be well trimmed. We stop here often and will be back again, we camped in a fifth wheel.
Date of Stay: June, 2012
Every year we camp here going to FL and back home again. Every year I wonder why I stop here. Mostly because it is convenient and price is good. The campground is old and many indigent people living on site, some in storage sheds. Old RVs with trash and debris all around the sites on right side of park. Left side is usual spots for overnighters. These sites are stone and grassy areas that have low spots that fill when it rains. We were in a site that after the rains had 3 to 4 inches of water in it to try and hook up in. Also the ground was soft and worried that we would get stuck trying to exit the site. The positives are it is close to I-95, fuel at Flying J, Denny's, and grocery store close by. This campground could be so much more if someone took a little initiative and cleaned it up and improved the sites with more stone to fill in the low spots. It might be a bit more of a drive but I'm going to Jacksonville next year.

Gary Cahill insists all Chelsea's players would rather win trophies than make history by matching Arsenal's 'Invincibles'.
The unbeaten Blues are four points clear at the top of the table after eight wins and two draws. Martin Keown, who helped Arsenal go unbeaten during the 2003-04 League season, says this Chelsea side are one of the best in Premier League history.
It has sparked a debate over whether Jose Mourinho's men can follow the Gunners into the record books by claiming the title without losing.
But Cahill told Standard Sport: "Winning trophies rather than having an 'Invincibles' season is all that matters. When people talk about us going unbeaten, we're just laughing it off at the moment.
"No one is talking about it in the dressing room. People outside are talking because we have started well but it's not something the players discuss. That's a good thing."
Chelsea's unbeaten run stretches to the cup competitions and Cahill believes their dominant start to the season is psyching out rivals before a ball has been kicked. The defender said: "I think it gets in the heads of the opposition and will do so even more the longer it goes on. We're really proud of it and our start to the season.
"It does put a feeling in their minds that we haven't lost before they come and play us. It gives us confidence too that we are winning matches and getting the right results.
"When you're not winning it puts you under pressure, but that doesn't apply to us at the minute.
"I think that can be the case [teams beaten before kick-off]. You can tell by the way some opposition line up.
"Even when things haven't gone perfect for us, like over the last week, we are still unbeaten. You have to respond to adversity and that's what we do.
"The late equaliser at Manchester United [last week] was a massive blow, things went against us that changed the game.
"I'm actually annoyed we haven't kept more clean sheets but the positive thing is we are reacting and responding when things go against us."Reuse content

Mike Wallace, legendary television journalist, dies
Advertisements for the CBS newsmagazine show "60 Minutes" once boasted that for anyone hiding a secret, four of the most dreaded words in the English language were "Mike Wallace is here."
As the biggest star of the longest-running, highest-rated, most influential news show since its 1968 debut, Wallace helped define television journalism with an adversarial interviewing style that was as admired as it was feared.
From an early career as an actor, cigarette pitchman and game-show host, he transitioned to what he called a more substantial career in hard news. "60 Minutes" made him rich, famous and one of the most commanding and imitated fixtures of TV journalism for more than two generations.
Wallace, 93, died Saturday at an assisted living facility in New Canaan, Conn., CBS News announced. He had a history of heart ailments, including a triple bypass operation in 2008.
Wallace developed a compelling persona that seamlessly blended country club locker-room bonhomie with the prosecutorial zeal of Torquemada. With his theatrical baritone, he pitched softball questions that could take a sudden detour into an uncomfortable line of questioning meant to sniff out misdeeds or fun gossip.
He became known as one the most skilled interviewers of the powerful, famous and elusive - world leaders, Hollywood celebrities, controversial newsmakers, notorious criminals and the hinkiest scam artists. He was a pioneer of the surprise or "ambush" interview, a technique intended to shock its targets into spilling information they might not in a scheduled interview.
In short, he helped invent magazine-style television, which merged elements of news and entertainment in a powerful and immensely profitable way that kept CBS the most formidable of network-news providers for years and "60 Minutes" one of the most trusted of news programs.
Its weekly viewership reached 40 million at the peak of network TV audiences in the early 1980s. It spawned many imitators and, like Wallace, won the top honors of the profession.
Television historian Ron Simon said Wallace's ability to remain engaging while asking aggressive questions was crucial to his success as an investigative reporter.
"He paved the way for how investigative journalism is done on television," said Simon, a curator at the Paley Center for Media, a New York-based museum of radio and television. "He created a persona that worked for many decades and was compelling to viewers, who identified with him and trusted him as someone representing their interests."
When mapping out an interview, Wallace told Time magazine he organized his questions by ambition, motivation, greed, joy and defeat, and said this established a "chemistry of confidentiality" that showed his guests "I cared enough to read and look at and worry about the questions."
Among Wallace's memorable exchanges was a 1979 interview with Iran's Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini shortly after his followers seized the U.S. Embassy in Tehran and took 52 Americans hostage.
"Imam," Wallace began, "President Sadat of Egypt says what you are doing is, quote, 'a disgrace to Islam.' And he calls you, imam, forgive me, his words, not mine, 'a lunatic.' "
The moment was riveting, in part because the interpreter initially refused to translate what Wallace had said. Wallace said the statement was crucial to make, to get around Khomeini's "almost robotic" responses on questions that had been approved in advance by Iranian officials.
Khomeini called for Sadat's "overthrow"; Sadat was killed by gunmen in 1981.
In other interviews, Wallace caused a long chill in his friendship with the Reagans when he appeared to criticize first lady Nancy Reagan for not being able to say how many blacks were on her husband's top campaign staff.
Wallace once got a Chicago business executive keeping two sets of tax records to admit to fraud on camera. As the reporter described the story to USA Today: "I said, 'Look, between you and me, Chicagoans do this all the time, right?' And he says, 'Between you and me, you're right.'
"Between you and me and the whole middle of America! What a moment!"
Wallace said he liked constructing stories as if they were "morality plays," and his reports developed certain hallmarks over the years: the penetrating question, the close-up so intense it showed the guest's pores, the way he discredited a guest's statement by repeating it back in disbelief.
In 1993, Wallace and a camera crew surprised a New Mexico priest, on a 10-mile pilgrimage, who allegedly molested a parishioner when she was 15.
The priest, Robert Kirsch, said Wallace was harassing him but the newsman persisted: "Now why would she say that about you . . . if it were not so?"
A state judge ruled against the accuser because she had waited too long to bring her claim.
Wallace himself was once asked on "60 Minutes" if he'd worry about someone barging into his office and confronting him with what appeared to be bombshell evidence.
"I wouldn't," joked the four-time married Wallace, "which is why I lead a life beyond reproach."
As the decades passed, Wallace became as much a celebrity as any of the actors, presidents and dictators he profiled. His was instantly recognizable with his full, pitch-black hair raked backward, his deeply tanned skin and enviably trim physique earned from years of tennis and sit-ups.
Despite his bouts of depression, his stamina for demanding assignments and far-flung travels never waned. "I love the urgency of what we do," he told People magazine. "I like the battles that take place, the jousting."
He remained a competitive correspondent on "60 Minutes" well into his senior years — "60 Minutes" creator Don Hewitt once called him a "force of nature" — and he could turn brusque and demanding when he was not accorded star status on assignment choice.
Mindful of his public image, Wallace became a leading and controversial voice in the 1990s debates over corporate censorship in journalism when CBS executives interfered with his "60 Minutes" segment on a tobacco industry whistleblower.
Wallace conducted the interview with the whistleblower, Jeffrey Wigand, who said he could prove cigarette executives were lying when they publicly declared they knew of no evidence to prove the addictive nature of nicotine.
The segment was made just as CBS was in the middle of a takeover by the conglomerate Westinghouse, and the network feared Wigand's confidentiality agreement with his old employer, Brown & Williamson, would make CBS susceptible to a multibillion-dollar lawsuit.
In 1995, "60 Minutes" broadcast only a small portion of Wigand's interview and hid his identity and face. On air, Wallace noted the limitations imposed by CBS management.
But the entire behind-the-scenes drama proved damaging to the prestige of "60 Minutes" and Wallace and culminated in a Hollywood film, "The Insider" (1999), with Christopher Plummer portraying Wallace as a corporate lackey who didn't use his authority to stand up for journalistic integrity.
Wallace denounced the film, and CBS News President Andrew Heyward said Wallace was "vociferous and public in his campaign and in his criticism of his own corporate bosses."
Wallace lightened his opinion after the film was nominated for Academy Awards, telling a reporter, "Everybody is saying I really don't look so bad at all in it."
Wallace threatened to retire but never did, saying in his 2005 memoir, "Between You and Me," he kept getting interview "opportunities I can't turn down."
The interview he always wanted and never got was with Pope John Paul II.
"I wanted to talk to him not just about being the pope, but about other things — about acting, about politics, about celibacy, about skiing," he told the Newark Star-Ledger. "I wanted to talk to him as a man."

About Me
I am a photographer trying hard to get more work published and break into the professional ranks full time. That being said, I consider myself a professional, and conduct my shoots accordingly. This includes committing to shooting dates (and not flaking out), and working diligently and efficiently on days that I shoot. I expect the same from models. Feel free to contact any of the models I have credited here for references.
I am wide open to ideas and styles, from simple portraiture to elaborate artistic shoots. If you have an idea or a hole in your portfolio, lets work together towards some work that benefits both of us. I obviously prefer TFP/TFCD, but I will pay if someone brings me a great idea.
I have professional cameras, and enough strobes and lighting equipment to do about anything we can dream up. My Photoshop skills are solid and getting better every day.
"It's not so much about developing trust, but more about developing the feeling that what we're doing Is a collaboration. I'm interested in what we can do together, not what we can do separately."

When it comes to talking about safety and security, most people all around the world are willing to do anything in order to make sure that everything they have is safe and secure, including their whole family and their properties. Even though you think that your outdoor areas do not have any precious things to be secured from, but it would always be a nice idea to start thinking of installing security lights outdoor. Here, you can find some tips about how to install security lights outdoor.
# 1. Considering about the Cable
Of course, it is always extremely important to deal first with the cable. You need to ensure that all the cable chains are on their right place to avoid any fatal injuries.
# 2. Thinking about the Best Weather
Of course, the best weather for installing security lights outdoor will be on the summer day, or when the weather is nice and warm. It would be really dangerous if you install it during the rainy day, or when the weather is not good enough.
# 3. Stay Away from the Children
Once you have a plan on installing security lights outdoor, it is extremely recommended that you keep your children away from your place. You have never known what is going to happen when you are installing it.
# 4. Switch Off the Main Power
Just before you are starting any electrical works, it would be the best idea to always stay safe by switching off the main power. In order to do this, you can be sure by using a socket tester which can confirm whether the circuits are dead or not.
# 5. Switch Off the Breaker
In order to keep you and the whole family in a safe condition, it is important to switch off the breaker, and if it is possible, you need to lock it. You can isolate the circuit by removing the circuit fuse and save it on your pocket for avoiding any accident.
# 6. Attach a Note
For more safety sure, you can start attaching a note to the unit such as when you are working on installing the security lights outdoor. It is important to leave a message that you are still working on it so that there is no someone else who tends to switch on the power.
# 7. Removing the Old Fixture
After you have removed the old fixture and reconnect the wires, you can simply start installing a new fixture for more convenience. Then, you need to program the light settings.
# 8. Testing the Motion Sensor
In order to be able to test the motion sensor, you can begin to place a piece of tape over the lighting censor in order to know whether the light settings have already worked or not. Even, you can adjust the unit's sensitivity if it is necessary.
Basically, it is not difficult to start installing the security lights outdoor. Once you have installed it, you will get loads of benefits. You will be able to see who is calling at night and identify easily the burglar. The most incredible thing about outdoor lightings is that you can create adorable visual effects of lights, shadows, and paths among the plants and the front door.

I am a U.S citizen. My sister from Turkey has been staying with me for 2 months on a tourist visa. If I petition for her, can she stay in the U.S. while the case is pending?
No, sorry. A sibling petition under current law takes 10-14 years to become current and have a visa number available.
An immigrant petition filed on a sibling's behalf does not give any right to remain in the US. To remain, sister must otherwise find a valid nonimmigrant visa category (student, work, etc.) to remain in valid lawful status in the US.

Mirror Restaurant
6/F Tiffan Tower, 197-199 Wan Chai Road, Wan Chai
Tel: 2573 7288
Open: Mon-Sat, 6pm-10.30pm
Cuisine: French
Price: the Mirror 'signature menu' is HK$498 plus 10 per cent for four courses and HK$598 for six; the degustation menu is HK$898 for six courses and HK$1,198 for eight.
Ambience: casual, intimate and friendly. Tables are well spaced with comfortable chairs. There's a small open kitchen crowded with a chef and four cooks (right).
Pros: there were at least as many waiters as cooks, so service was attentive and eager to please. When our waiter noticed that my guest hadn't finished one of his courses, he asked if there was anything wrong, and then told us the chef could adapt the dishes if there was something we disliked. The wine list is very short, but beautifully selected to match the food, and fairly priced. The menu prices are also fair, especially considering the quality of cooking and ingredients.
Cons: the executive chef, Jeremy Biasiol, worked with top chefs, including Alain Ducasse and Paul Bocuse. He is obviously very talented and his dishes have a lovely lightness, despite being served in large portions. But some of the dishes lacked spark, and this avid food lover wishes the chef would just relax and let his creativity rise to the level of his superb technique. The two soups we tasted - Jerusalem artichoke veloute with eel and ricotta (from the signature menu) and mussels bouchot soup (from the degustation menu) were smooth and ethereal in texture, but lacked flavour.
Recommended dishes: I ate a combination of dishes from the menu degustation and the dishes from the degustation selection that my picky guest wouldn't eat. Frog legs with garlic cream and watercress sauce (above) was a lovely combination that was beautifully rendered. From the degustation menu, sweet raw scallops were topped with black truffles (not as flavourful as most I've tasted) and light, refreshing lemon condiment. The savoury dish that I loved the most was the succulent, tender, roast pigeon with red wine sauce and macaroni gratin with truffles and comte (above). Desserts of 'Mirror style' pear Belle Helene and molten chocolate cake with wood strawberries were very well done.
What else? The menu changes at least once a month. Advance bookings are absolutely necessary.

Many new beers from Europe have been introduced to U.S. consumers over the years A new beer has been developed in Europe that will be introduced in the U.S. The plans are to launch an advertising campaign during the summer of 2010 and then start selling the beer shortly thereafter. This would not normally be big news. What makes this new beer unique is that it will contain 32% alcohol. Yes, 32%!! That is approximately 6 times the alcoholic content of the great majority of beers on the market in the U.S. today! Friends, if you drink just one of these SUPER BEERS and immediately leave the bar and get into your vehicle and drive, you are going to have a BIG problem if stopped by the cops!! Nowadays, if you are stopped by the DWI cops and they smell alcohol on your breath, rest assured you are going to be arrested for DWI. The Field Sobriety Tests are just a "dog and pony" show that are captured on the officer's video camera inside his police unit. The only reason for these tests, contrary to what the officer tells you, is to gather evidence against you. Plain and simple. End of story. Drinking one of these SUPER BEERS is the equivalent of drinking a six pack. If you drink one of these 32% beers in 20 minutes that is like consuming a 6 pack of your favorite beer! Think about it. If you drink two of these beers...forget about it...you are toast!! Bubba Cates - DWIDUDE Investigator

Getting Ready For My First Date...With My First GirlfriendMature
It was really strange – but in a good way – to have a girlfriend. Throughout my years growing up from a girl into a woman, I'd never really thought about my love life. I grew up seeing so many of my friends dating other people but the thought of me having a 'soulmate' [as my friends liked to put it] had never crossed my mind…till now.
The moment the words, "Will you go out with me?" were asked to me from Will, I couldn't surpress the wave of happiness that came over me. It was great to have someone in that way...to love you and look out for you. And it was all the more convenient when that person is your roommate.
The following weekend, Will said she wanted to take me on a date. When I asked her where, she refused to tell me as she wanted it to be a surprise. Nevertheless, my curiousity didn't dampen and only increased when she said she was going to go "prepare things" on the day of the date, and then come back to pick me up.
"Come on Will, can't we just go together? Otherwise it would just be-"
"Otherwise, it wouldn't be as perfect. Alex, I want to make this perfect for you. Is this or is this not your first date with me?"
I bit my lower lip and looked up at her as she stood across me on the other side of my bed. "It is but-"
"No buts. Believe me, you won't regret waiting."
She grinned and without another word, left the room, leaving me alone. It's not like I didn't understand. I did. But the suspense was starting to gnaw away at the sides of my heart and I couldn't help but wonder where she was going to take me.
The hour passed slowly and I lounged about lazily on my bed, reading books, revising homework and essays that had already been completed and listening to music. Constantly, I would look at the clock that hung on the wall and my eyes would flicker to the framed photo Will had given me - a reminder that if she'd given me something that beautiful, the date she was going to take me on now would definitely be worth the wait.
Finally, when I heard the room door open, I jumped off my bed and ran towards Will who was grinning widely.
"We can go now," she said, taking hold of my hand.
"But wait, should I bring anything? Like money or food or-"
"Nope, everything is prepared." Then she paused and stopped walking, looking me up and down which made me feel very self concious. I was only just wearing skinny jeans and a tank, there's nothing wrong with that is there? "You should probably change though...into something more, 'gown-like'."
My eyebrows lifted and placing my hands on my hips, I gave Will, what she liked to call 'the look'. "Willow Sampson, where exactly are you taking me that would require me to dress up in a gown?"
She ignored me, probably because she felt more pushed to answer the question when I used that particular tone of voice. Reaching past my waist, she took her camera and muttered, "I'll be needing this."
Her eyes met my impatient ones and she smirked, probably finding my uncontrollable excitement very amusing.
"Believe me Alex, you're going to love this."

Kony 2012 - The Solution
Decided to do Friday's video a day early! This Kony 2012 video is all the rage with the celebrities. So I thought I would jump on the trendy fad and give my perspective. However, unlike others, I offer real solutions!
5 comments:
Couldn't summon up the willpower to get through the vid. Lots of TNB I assume. Saw a lifetime's worth of that when I lived in London.ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
in the kony vid someone farts at 29:12. why?ReplyDelete
"A phony youth movement – Kony 2012 – is being used as a propaganda operations to promote US military intervention and instigate regime change in several African nations.ReplyDelete
This is the first large-scale campaign to mobilize social medialites to aggregate public support for what would otherwise be, controversial pro-intervention US foreign policy. The production relies on highly charged and often unrelated emotional triggers, which ultimately rely on the viewers sense of compassion in tandem with a lack of prior information on the subject to produce a desired result – explicitly, the villainous mythification of Kony and the mainstream acceptance of US presence in Africa through a proposed archipelago of AFRICOM military bases in the region.
The production targets an age group between thirteen and twenty-one, and uses a level of academic vocabulary appropriate for a young adult audience with a limited attention span; the narrator at one point even insists the viewer pay attention. The viewer is encouraged to form an emotional connection to Russell, as we witness unrelated footage of his child's birth.
The viewer is then subsequently associated with Russell's role as a nurturer to his young son, before shifting to scenes of Russell nurturing the Ugandan child soldier, Jacob. Russell is shown prophetically pledging to stop the LRA to the traumatized and crying young boy. The intimate portrayal of emotion in these scenes work to further incite a reactionary response from the viewer, towards the preordained conclusion suggested in the narrative – a mass mobilization of support for the US military in their efforts to stop Jacob's source of trauma. Bernays' would be beside himself.
KONY 2012 is produced like any other sleek marketing campaign – instead of stimulating elements of self-satisfaction like advertisers would do to promote a product, US military intervention is justified to end an atrocious humanitarian catastrophe. The film also plays on an underlying theme of the White Man's Burden, a notion that persons of European descent inherit a quality of guilt for their ancestors' inclination for slavery and colonialism, requiring an activist response to finally correct the situation by 'saving Africa.'

CARDIFF reached the summit of the Championship, their highest position since March 1971, when they beat the previous leaders, Birmingham, 2-0.
Before a gate of 20,109, the first sell-out league crowd at Ninian Park for 46 years, the Welsh club seized control with an early goal from Joe Ledley and Paul Parry, who had set him up for it, added the other from a cross by the impressive Steve Thompson.
Birmingham could have had no complaints about the result. They hardly got a look-in during the first half and although they improved in the second, Cardiff, in addition to Parry's strike, saw a Michael Chopra shot hit the bar.
Cardiff manager Dave Jones said: 'We took a bit of flak following Tuesday's defeat to Barnet [in the Carling Cup] but came out of the traps at 100 miles per hour and didn't even stop to take breath. We have just got to keep it going and keep our feet on the floor. In the last few weeks we have matched the top two teams in this division in every department but we will get even better and stronger.'
In addition to Cardiff, the other Championship team unbeaten after five matches are Southampton. However, they will have had mixed feelings about their 1-1 draw at home to Preston, because Grzegorz Rasiak grabbed his fourth goal of the season to give them a deserved half-time lead against Preston at St Mary's only for a glaring error by Southampton keeper Kelvin Davis to allow Simon Whaley to level from a free-kick.
It was very much the Jamie Cureton show at Colchester as the experienced striker, 31 tomorrow, steered the home team to their first points of the season through a 4-3 win over Derby. Cureton could have had five goals but eventually ended up with three, the first two of which were scored in the space of three first-half minutes to give his team a 2-0 lead. The goal that completed his hat-trick gave Colchester a 4-1 lead.
Another thirtysomething striker who stood out was Plymouth's Barry Hayles, the scorer of his side's equaliser in the 1-1 draw at Stoke.
The only team with a 100 per cent record now are Swindon, the League Two leaders who beat Stockport 2-0. Of the others with maximum points after four matches, Port Vale lost 1-0 at Yeovil, where John Terry's brother, Paul scored the only goal, while Nottingham Forest drew 1-1 at Huddersfield after being ahead.
Though Macclesfield are the Football League's most poorly supported club -the only one with an average attendance currently under 2,000 - their manager, Brian Horton, refuses to use this as an excuse for their drop into the relegation zone.
The reason is the financial support Macclesfield have had from their Iraqi owners, Amar and Bashar Alkhadi, the London-based telecom entrepreneurs, who have family and business ties in the town.
The brothers' investment in the club, which started three years ago, and has stemmed partly from their having family and business ties in the town, might be a spit in the ocean compared to that of Roman Abramovich.
But the highly-experienced Horton, a managerial veteran of more than 1,000 games, says: 'They are one of the main reasons why I enjoy it here so much. They are the best owners I have ever worked for.'
Horton readily recalls the owners' part in helping to steer Macclesfield into the 2005 promotion play-offs, in his first full season at Moss Road, through allowing him to sign David Morley, Danny Swailes and Kevin McIntyre at the mid-way stage.
'I think a lot of fans would have been happy to see us finishing halfway, but like me, Amar and Bashir wanted to really have a go at achieving more than that,' he says. 'That is typical of them. I have a very young squad this season, but the other week, they allowed me to sign Jamie Tolley [from Shrewsbury] and they are still saying to me: "Listen, if you want another player, go and get him." I cannot praise them enough.
'The fact that we got into the play-offs two seasons ago is now giving me a bigger problem than I should be getting because some of the fans are expecting that from us,' Horton adds. 'But I cannot deny we underachieved in the opening matches. Amar and Bashar, and the rest of the board, have done their bit - now it's up to the players and myself to do ours.'
Unfortunately, this did not happen yesterday as Macclesfield, with only one point, lost 2-0 at home to Wycombe.
Of the other teams at the bottom, Bury picked up their first points of the season with a 3-0 win over Grimsby, while Rochdale also broke their duck (in terms of goals as well as points) with a 1-1 draw at Accrington Stanley.

What is Baroque?
Against the backdrop of Hampton Court's Baroque Palace these beds convey the magnificence and bombast of the period.
A fresh twist on Baroque
Secrets of the Royal Bedchamber exhibition designers Universal Design Studio have taken a fresh contemporary twist to the core principles of the Baroque aesthetic; dynamism, reflection, embellishment. The exhibition design aims to complement and contrast with the magnificence of the Mary II's State Apartments.
Christopher Wren's Hampton Court Palace is a fantastic example of exuberant English Baroque architecture. This magnificent half of the palace was King William III and Queen Mary II's answer to France's Versailles.
Baroque art in the exhibition
The Kings and Queens that occupied Hampton Court during the 17th and 18th Century were also important patrons of Baroque art and music. Queen Anne's funeral music, which you can hear in the exhibition, was written by Baroque composer William Croft, whilst her successors George I and George II were patrons of German composers Georg Frederick Handel and Johann Sebastian Bach whose music defined the mid-18th Century and is still popular today. And if you visit the Drawing Room in the Queen's State Apartments you will see Anne immortalised in Antonio Verio's painted ceiling.
Exhibition included in palace admission
Secrets of the Royal Bedchamber is included in palace admission. Members go free.

Atlanta's Award-winning Architect Boye Akinola, AIA Makes Difference in the Design of Luxury Homes
We at Boye Architecture, Inc. are excited to highlight the contributions of one of America's most talented award-winning luxury home plan and custom house plan architects in the service of residents of Metro Atlanta and United States of America.
In the last 17 years, these enclaves of affluence in Atlanta and the rest of the nation in large cities exhibit the increase in the demand for housing stock of high quality and progressions in the lifestyles of this middle to high-income African-American home buyers that know what they want and can afford the luxury lifestyles they desire. In addition, these target groups of home buyers have become very sophisticated in choosing their brand of housing and the surrounding neighborhoods. Consequently, African-American home buyers utilize the services of highly qualified architects, interior designers and builders to assist them in realizing their luxury lifestyle dreams.
Since 1993 at 30 years of age, one Atlanta Architect has been in the fore front of this trend and is proud to make a difference in designing and creating a signature style of homes for the African-American community in Atlanta and the rest of the Nation. Boye and his award-winning Atlanta firm, Boye Architecture, Inc. (formerly bA Design-Architects)

Architect Boye continues to provide luxury custom home designs for diverse ethnic clientele that include local, regional and international real estate developers. He explains "in the future when people go through African-American neighborhoods, they will get to see and understand how we lived. I feel this is part of my purpose and my higher calling in my architectural practice. I am blessed and very fortunate to serve families in Atlanta. I thank all our past and present clients in Atlanta in the past 16 years that have afforded me the opportunity to design their dream homes for them."
Some of the major highlights of Architect Boye exceptional career :

Architect Boye branded and designed John Wieland Homes' new custom home styles based on Boye's signature unique luxury European designs.
2. Since 1999, Architect Boye designed new collections of luxury homes with smaller heated areas and sizes to accommodate clientele that wanted to live in a "Boye' house but didn't want to spend millions of dollars of their house.
3.
