Mark Corner, from the St Domingo Vale area of Everton, was arrested on suspicion of murder, a police spokeswoman said.
The bodies, which were found on Sunday evening, had been cut up and placed in bin bags in an alley in the Everton area of Liverpool.
One of the bodies is believed to be that of missing Lancashire prostitute Pauline Stephen, a 25-year-old mother of one.
Merseyside detectives do not know the identity of the second person but say it is a woman's body.
He said: "We will be handing out personal safety advice and personal attack alarms to prostitutes and encouraging the use of safe routes.
"Obviously at the moment it would be preferable for them not to use unsafe routes to ply their trade."
Uniformed officers were maintaining a high profile in the area, to
reassure residents.
The body parts were found more than a week since Ms Stephen was reported missing.
Clothes, believed to belong to Ms Stephen, were also found close to the remains and her car was parked nearby.
Ms Stephen, from Skelmersdale, Lancashire, failed to return home on 12 July, and has not been seen since.
Ms Stephen, who had a partner and eight-year-old son, grew up in Liverpool and had been working as a prostitute in the city.

Pitt assistant Jim Hueber is an equal-opportunity offensive line coach. He yells at everyone.
After two weeks of drills, his words have hit the mark and are helping shape Pitt's line into a serviceable group. Holes are starting to open in the defense, thanks to five starters getting accustomed to each other.
But here's a key to a successful season: Keep the starting line healthy.
"I'm not going to lie to anybody," Hueber said. "We're just like a lot of teams around the country. When we decide on five guys, that's the five guys we want to play. You don't want to play anybody else.
"I know you are hoping against hope that will happen over 12 games. But that's where we want to be."
From the start of camp, the starters have been led by seniors Ryan Turnley at center and Chris Jacobson at left guard, with Ryan Schlieper at right guard, Cory King at left tackle and Matt Rotheram at right tackle.
"We are going to be as good as our front five, as Coach Hueber always tells us," Jacobson said. "Leadership has to come from the front five."
The backups, none of whom have played in a major-college game, are showing "flashes," Hueber said.
"That's it. No elaboration," he said. "Flashes."
The group includes freshmen Adam Bisnowaty and Gabe Roberts at left tackle and guard, center Artie Rowell, right guard Shane Johnson and right tackle Zenel Demhasaj.
"The freshman kids are doing a nice job," Hueber said. "Artie Rowell has done a nice job. He has us in the right protections, stuff like that."
Still, Hueber is demanding more consistency, or else.
"When we get ready to go to game time," he said, "if they are not involved in the two-deep (depth chart), it will be their fault, not mine. They are getting as much coaching and as much is being demanded out of them as the guys who are with the first group.
"If they can't step up and do it, we will move someone else who can, or else I'll keep my fingers crossed that we got five (starters), or we'll have to move a fullback to guard. We'll go single wing."
Don't expect anything so drastic, though.
"I think we are getting closer to having five guys we can trust out there," he said. "By no means was it perfect (in Saturday's scrimmage), but over the last three days, we really felt like we got a lot done that will help us moving forward."
The example set by Jacobson, who is recovering from knee surgery, should be a source of inspiration, Hueber said.
"The fact that he is in the huddle, guys are looking to him. It's not easy to take a play off now when a guy is out there after (surgery).
"Not easy to beg out."
A sign in the Pitt weight room reminds linemen to be "tough, accountable and durable."
"If you are not out there, you are not durable," Hueber said. "You have to find a way to get on the field. If you are going to find a way not to, we got the wrong guy."

(Reuters) - Four years ago when the Chicago Blackhawks won their last Stanley Cup it seemed the only thing their precocious young captain Jonathan Toews could not do was grow a proper playoff beard.
Toews finished those playoffs scoring seven goals and 29 points in 22 games, claiming a Conn Smythe trophy as the post-season's most valuable player and adding his name on the Stanley Cup.
Back in the finals and ready to faceoff against the Boston Bruins in Game One of the best-of-seven series on Wednesday, Toews is sporting a much more impressive beard this time around but his scoring has not been nearly as striking.
With one goal through the first three playoff rounds, Toews' point production may be spotty but his confidence and maturity have grown to the point where he does not obsess over it like he might have earlier in his career.
"When pucks weren't really going in and I didn't seem to be contributing the way I know I could, people can say whatever they want to say," Toews told reporters during the Stanley Cup media day on Tuesday. "But I haven't let it bother me. I haven't let it hurt my confidence.
"I don't think anything in my game has digressed the last couple of years, I think I have only gotten better.
"The easy thing to notice is when you score points but I feel like there are still a lot of good things in my game."
While Toews waits for his scoring touch to return, the 25-year-old Canadian has found other ways to contribute to the Chicago cause.
He remains one of hockey's hardest workers, leads all Chicago forwards in ice time and is tops in faceoffs.
The only goal that is on Toews' mind these days is not the one he hasn't scored but the team objective of winning another Stanley Cup.
"We (Toews and team mate Patrick Kane) have both gone through some moments in the playoffs where people are kind of looking at a lack of contribution, we're not really too worried about it," said Toews. "We know there are a lot of good things we can do out there.
"The big reason why we are here is that we play so well as a team...that's the way it's got to be and the way we are going to win this series as well."
Since Chicago claimed Toews with the third overall pick in the 2006 draft the forward has gone from strength-to-strength.
In his first season he was a finalist for rookie of the year and in his second campaign he was made captain.
Nicknamed Captain Serious, Toews has always been viewed as mature beyond his years, providing him with the perspective needed to wait out a scoring slump.
"I think you just get that experience and you understand that, hey, not everything is going to go your way, not everything is going to be seen the same way from different people," said Chicago defenseman Duncan Keith.
"I think he's done a good job just keeping a level head. That's what makes him a great player."
Just 25, Toews is already a member of the Triple Gold club limited to players with a Stanley Cup and Olympic and world championship titles on their resumes.
He has twice played for Canada at the world championships winning gold and silver and was golden again at the Vancouver Winter Games, named to the Olympic all-star team.
But it is the soft-spoken Toews' feisty determination and intensity that are seen as his greatest qualities, leading by example rather than words.
"In 2010 when we went all the way to Stanley Cup final we didn't really know how good our team was," recalled Toews. "We went out there and won games and the next thing you know we were winning the Stanley Cup.
"Coming back here we realize how tough it is, how rare this opportunity is because we worked so hard to get here."

Porticus Gaii et Lucii
Richardson, L. jr
Porticus Gaii et Lucii (Fig. 48): a monument known from literary sources (Suetonius Aug. 29; cf. Cass. Dio 56.27.5) and identified by a large inscription (CIL 6.36908) in honor of Lucius Caesar found in 1898 near the southwest corner of the Basilica Paulli (Aemilia), broken, but clearly not far from the building from which it had fallen. Excavations in 1954 brought to light the remains of a monumental entrance to the forum between the Temple of Divus Iulius and the Basilica Paulli serving also as an entrance to the basilica. It consisted of a double arch, the half toward the basilica with its floor on the same level as that of the basilica, the other sunk four steps to the level of the Sacra Via. This was decorated with an engaged order and presumably served as the base for a program of statuary honoring Augustus's grandsons. The fact that it was balanced on the opposite side of the Temple of Divus Iulius by the Arcus Augusti should not be overlooked. The portico was, in effect, a triumphal arch for a triumph never won, hence its name. See also Basilica Paulli.

By IVES GALARCEP
CHICAGO– In a Gold Cup Tournament that saw them destroy opponents with multiple-goal barrages, Sunday's Gold Cup Final proved to be their toughest test of the tournament, and forced them to show off qualities that have been overlooked in this tournament.
Panama did a good job of being disciplined defensively, and forcing the U.S. to work very hard to try and break through. This required patience and quality on the ball to keep possession, especially in the first half, when Panama was still looking dangerous on the counter.
The U.S. team passed the test, and while they didn't light up the scoreboard, they came together as a team and contained Panama's attack while controlling play in the middle of the park and cleaning up the few promising sequences the 'Canaleros' were able to put together.
The midfield pairing of Kyle Beckerman and Mix Diskerud did an outstanding job of controlling the middle, while U.S. centerbacks Matt Besler and Clarence Goodson stifled Panamanian forwards Blas Perez and Gabriel Torres.
Here is a rundown of how all U.S. players faired in Sunday's Gold Cup Final victory vs. Panama:
SBI USMNT PLAYERS GRADES vs. Panama
Nick Rimando (6). Had zero saves to make on his least busy match of the Gold Cup, but did once again show excellent distribution skills out of the back.
Michael Parkhurst (6.5).
Kyle Beckerman (7). Had some uncharacteristic turnovers early on, but eventually settled into his usually steady self, winning the battle in the middle and covering an impressive amount of ground. Even contributed to defending in the penalty area on some occasions.
Matt Besler (7). Another top-class outing from the U.S. team's best centerback. He snuffed out countless Panamanian attacking sequences, and neutralized Blas Perez in a way no team had before in the Gold Cup.
Clarence Goodson (7). Partnered with Besler in shutting down Panama's forwards and dominating the penalty area. Another quality passing display suddenly makes Goodson look like a good bet to be starting for the U.S. when World Cup qualifying rolls around in September.
DaMarcus Beasley (6.5). Had an important role in trying to contain Panama's right wing, and he did that well for the most part. Was pretty quiet from an attacking standpoint, but did have one promising cross that Landon Donovan should have done better with.
Joe Corona (5.5). Started the match very well, and was arguably the U.S. team's best midfielder through the first 30 minutes, but he slowly began to fade and struggled in the second half before being subbed out.
Stuart Holden (NR). Was off to a promising start before suffering a knee injury 19 minutes into the match.
Alejandro Bedoya (7). Turned in his second straight strong performance and suddenly his national team prospects are on the rise. He kept on pumping in service into the penalty area until he finally broke through with his left-footed cross on the game-winning goal.
Eddie Johnson (5). Had a plethora of chances to try and do something with the ball, but never could get through the Panama defense. He was aggressive, and did keep Panama's defenders busy with his various step-overs and attempts to run at them, but lacked anything truly dangerous, and missed his best chance badly on an attempt directly in front of goal.
Landon Donovan (6.5). Struggled to get involved in the first half as Panama's defensive wall proved too tough to overcome, but Donovan found the game in the second half and proved to be much more successful at finding gaps to exploit. He didn't wind up with an assist on Shea's goal, but his missed attempt to play Bedoya's pass ultimately forced Panama's goalkeeper to commit, thus helping set up the goal.
Mix Diskerud (7). Came into the match cold after Holden's injury and almost immediately settled into the match. He made a conscious effort to contribute defensively and tied for the team lead in defensive recoveries. His passing was very sharp, with four of his five incomplete passes coming in the final third.
Brek Shea (6). Came in an almost immediately made an impact by finishing off Bedoya's pass for the game winner. Beyond that he was very aggressive in going after Panama's defense and put in some hopeful passes while also contributing defensively.
Omar Gonzalez (NR). Came on for the last minute (plus stoppage time) and made three important clearances in that short amount of time.
What do you think of these grades? Which player do you feel deserved a higher grade? Who do you think we were too generous with?
Share your thoughts below.
Loved MixD after he came in for Holden. He was all over the pitch breaking up passes and his own passing was very good at the same time. I think he went from under the radar to being close to booking a seat on the plane to Brazil.
No write-up on Parkhurst?
Ken Salazar
Nuff said!
SBI TroIl
He's been that forgettable, even Ives forget to write about him.
I though Parkhurst's run into the box was essential to pulling that defender away allowing Bedoya to slot that ball towards Donovan. That run might have been the play of the game IMHO.
Guy just keeps getting it down, simply and effectively, at every level, yet no one gives him any respect. Easy to blame Ives for his non-man crush, because after all, he has to appeal to all you idiots… Ultimately, I place the blame on rap music.
Best game of the tournament for MP. He shut down dangerous Quintero and got forward much better than he did early in the tournament. He missed a few chances to overlap but his run on the goal was essential to open up space for Bedoya.
Hard to overlap when every time he looked up, Donovan or somebody else was already parked in the overlap space
Although that miss probably drops eddie johnson a lot I didn't really think he was that bad the rest of the night. Thought he had some great hold-up play and was able to draw some fouls. Was very active all over the field
MOTM was easily Diskerud in my opinion
Agreed. I feel terrible for Holden, and hope that he sees a speedy recovery, but subbming Mix in may have been the best thing for the US team yesterday. Very very strong outing tonight and an overall solid tournament.
The problem with EJ was that there was too much hold-up to his hold-up play. He certainly did a good job of keeping the ball when it came to him, but he dwelt on the ball, often killing off good plays. He was also way too eager to take the ball wide and dribble from there. He only made a few weak attempts to make runs behind the defense.
Panama defended resolutely, but they were not completely bunkered-in; there were many times where the Panamanian back line moved up the pitch, but EJ made precious little effort to exploit any space behind them.
Exactly my thoughts, he's not a quick enough thinker in buildup like Herc or Wondo. His one advantage is speed and all he could do with that was run balls down to the corner flag so he could lose it again.
Quick enough thinker in buildup!?!? That absolutely wreaks. Did you not see his goal from build up in the Honduras match? Made a brilliant dummy run, spun off received a great pass from Donovan, blew by the defenders and hit a well placed shot in to the back of the net. You seriously need to check your paradigm about who is/isn't a "quick thinker." Your logo isn't a good enough mask.
I suppose Wondo, Goodson, Zusi, Mix, Holden, Beckerman, Besler, Parkhurst, Bradley, Cameron, Evans, Davis and Guzan are real "cerebral" players.
divers suck
Sometimes folks need to give credit where it's due. EJ and Donovan both missed easy chances against a planned smothering defense from Panama designed to not let them beat them. Bedoya, Mix, Goodsen were all the best on the pitch….
Donovan missed a header he needed to turn 145degrees to put on frame. EJohnson missed a sitter – badly. not apples to apples , friend.
EJohnson had a very good Gold Cup, but he looked dead tired at the end of the match, and was begging for Wondo to come in and spell him before his mishit.
"too much hold-up to his hold-up play."
Well said.
SoCal Soccer Mom
+1 you must have heard me yelling 'do something' when EJ started his step over, step over, step over, step over (and over and over) play.
Like the bleached hair, Eddie is simply pulling out all the greatest moves of 2001.
what a difference a miss makes. where were you guys after the Honduras game? EJ beat his man down the sideline on the build up that led to the goal and unsettled Panama's defense with a dangerous ball into the box, which may explain why Bedoya's seemingly innocuous pass made it all the way to the back post. EJ's run down the left is arguably the reason why Shea is in the box in the first place. Jeez.

JoshW: I guess your point is that because EJ had several great games, he cannot also have erred or done poorly in some regard?
My point is that he played the same as he did against Honduras, the only difference being that he missed the chance against Panama. Solid performance otherwise, including the build up to the only goal of the game. Arguably had a better game than Donovan. Tough for both of them to shine, given the field, the opponent and how they chose to play.
He absolutely did not play the same as he did against Honduras. Against Honduras he played through the middle and made himself a target in the area. Yesterday he kept drifting over to the wing, getting in Corona's way, failing to attack or to make himself a target. All he did was backpass. He was the prime culprit for our failure to generate anything in the first half. EJ has a habit of doing this when he starts to gain some confidence. He's unreliable.
Jurgen Klinnsmann
Clarence Goodson's grade is super important hence the larger font.
Bob Saget
Wow! A post from Jurgs! Thanks for commenting, and we're so glad you've been freed from CONCACAF prison.
A "7" is a bit too generous. While Goodson was solid and brought a lot of energy to shoring up the defense, his succession of long balls from the backline contributed nothing to the attack.
If we expect to perform reasonably well next summer in Brazil, we'll need good distribution out of the back.
I like the guy and hope to see him established with Besler as the starting tandem, but I'd say he was a "6" at best.
But he completely shut down arguably the best player in the tournament not on USMNT – Gabriel Torres. To boot, he moved up to deliver the pass to Bedoya, so could be credited with an NHL assist.
Sorry but Brek's contribution on the goal was merely to take the goal away from Bedoya. As shown on the replay the ball was already going in. Credit for being there though. A solid '5' only.
I don't know about that. Brek kicking it in made the goal a sure thing. If he didn't attack it like that, yeah the ball was still heading towards goal, but there would have been a possibility for a defender to clear. Brek made it certain.
there was no defender that close to Shea. Took the goal from Bedoya, although I'm not so sure LD didn't touch it but we'll take it.
Jesse D
If you are going to take away Brek's credit for scoring the goal, because it was too easy. Then give him credit for the EJ goal that should have been. That was also and easy goal and Brek set that one up.
Giving Eddie Johnson a 5 is a bit too generous. Each time he had a chance with the ball he spent time doing step-overs and dribbling his way into trouble rather than pressing and making something – anything – happen. As a result, the Panamanian defense was able to rush back as many players behind the ball as possible – ruining the small window of opportunity to take a chance. The most frustrating aspect was that he did this nearly every time he received the ball – he was missing the point. We don't need him to hold the ball when we have 70% of the possession. His ultimate misstep was blowing the open chance in front of goal. I think both E.J. and Herc are at risk of being left off of the World Cup roster in favor of a more stacked midfield (where we have significant depth) and a younger striker corps if/when Boyd, McInerney, Agudelo, Johannsson step up over the next year. I would bet that one of E.J. and Herc will be on the roster – but not both.
How can Bedoya be left off of the World Cup roster at this point?
Lost in Space
I agree in part that EJ and Herc (as well as Wondo) are on the fringe of the 23 for the WC.
There are a number of players who are making strong cases for themselves for those attacking spots, and for a change we have significant depth across all positions, and players who are flexable enough to play at a high level in multiple spots.
The players/depth at the Wide & Withdrawn forward/Wing Midfielder is growing:
Dempsey, Donovan, EJ, Gomez, Corona, Bedoya, Johannson, Agudelo, Wood, Shea
Players playing the central Striker role (Target) is a little thinner, but still good:
Jozy, Boyd, EJ, Gomez, Agudelo, Wondo
I think at the moment EJ makes the team (so long as he keeps his form), but Gomez & Wondo are going to miss the WC.
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
How can Bedoya be left off the WC roster at this point?…..We're still 10 months from making a decision on the roster and Bedoya is absolutely on the fringes. A lot can happen in that time. He certainly helped his chances though
I disagree about EJ for the most part. He was ineffective in this game. That was easy to see. However, his directness and versatility still have him as first attacking option off the bench. His ability to play anywhere across the front line is what will get him his ticket to Brazil. I actually think he will fare better in that role than as a starter. We won't be pinning teams back in the World Cup and his energy and ability on the counter will be useful if looking for a goal.
Lets not overreact to the young strikers in the pool. JackMac is clearly a ways away from the 23. Agudelo was left out of the Gold Cup for a reason. I'm sure Johannsson is talented, but lets see him play before we start mentioning him in the World Cup team. Like I said before, the WC roster selection is 10 months away and a lot can happen before then. We clearly have more options than ever before though. It will be very tough for Klinsmann to select the correct players for his roster.
"How can Bedoya be left off of the World Cup roster at this point?"
Because while he was good, he also missed some excellent opportunities to take a shot or make a difficult and daring pass.

Looking forward to Ives' 2014 WC roster prediction for August after this group played so well.
Yes! JK accomplished exactly what he needed to do during the Gold Cup. He elevated the competition for the best 23 and collected the trophy. Assuming we qualify, it's going to be a fun countdown to Brazil. Some quality players are going to be left off the plane and that's, unfortunately, a good thing.
Travis in Miami
exactly my thinking too
I'll never be a huge Beckerman fan, but he threw his body in the way of two or three shots during the last quarter hour and really stuffed a lot of Panama's attempts to work through the middle. That was as good a destroyer's game as anyone could have wanted.
I thought EJ got tired the last 30 minutes. His effort on that great cross by Shea was lacking and that's why it went horribly wrong.
Omar Gonzalez did dominate in the air when he came in with three towering defensive headers.
Bedoya isn't a lock for Brazil as some people might think. It could be a numbers game with Zusi, Donovan, and Corona at least able to play the right midfield spot.
Overall, this team steamrolled the tournament. Only Costa Rica really pushed them. Panama looked like they wanted to play for penalties with the whole team parked at the 18. At least the Ticos tried to play a bit more. Klinsmann coached this Gold Cup perfectly, six straight wins, all convincing.
Amid my own euphoria at claiming the title, I really was sad to see Holden come off. I've seen the replay numerous times from a bunch of angles and it just doesn't look good. I hope the MRI is negative, but having had serious knee trouble myself, it really looked bad for him. He's a good kid and could really use positive news on the injury front.
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
Strongly agree about the 'numbers game' with regards to the 23. We not only have more depth/options than ever before, but we also have a very versatile team. Seems like at least 1/2 the team can play multiple positions well. Versatility is so important in a WC roster. Klinsmann has some very tough decisions to make regarding the last 3/4 roster spots next summer.
EJ's grade should be a 3/10 tops. His "hold up" play killed off many an attacking move and he was barely trying to make an effort on balls that didn't drop perfectly to his feet. People in my section were chanting for Wondo to come on. Plus his attitude was poor all game and he just looked so disinterested. Anyone else see Damarcus have to knock him down a notch after he lost his cool with a panama defender? Until he learns to play with the team and gets his attitude in check, I don't think he deserves another call up.
Hahaha attitude problem? Its painfully obvious you never played the game
MidWest Ref
That is such a bullsh#t response. I am so sick of posters who say "you never played the game." Neither did Mourinho and he seems to know the game pretty well. I know plenty of players who don't understand the technical laws of the game. I would bet that there are plenty of athletes who play who don't really understand the strategic intracacies either. However, it was clear that EJ was frustrated. I agree that he didn't need to start an off the ball incident with the Panamanians, and good for Beasley in being a good captain and telling him off.
haha Mourinho played close to 100 professional games, how are you going to say he never played? I am sick of people who come on here and post uniformed comments because they have never experienced the game first hand. Its the same reason nobody appreciated Michael Bradleys game. They dont notice the simple things Bradley is able to do that makes the other players jobs so much easier. Its the same reason people wanted to drop Jozy when he wasnt scoring instead of seeing the space he created with his hold up play and the defenders he draws. Its the same people that come on here to bash Shea while he continues to produce when it matters. There is a reason a premier league team bought him while he was injured and a reason he impressed Blanc and many scouts.
EJ did what any player would do. He was hacked and let the defender know about it. He was protecting himself in a game where the referee wasnt. His hold up play wasnt as effective because the movement of the ball was stagnant.
Jozy, Jr., Brek, Timmay & GAM have all been on my hate list at one time or another. I reserve the right to add more as qualifying continues. Freedom!
I like Eddie Johnson, but he was bad yesterday, with the absolute low point missing a wide open shot two yards in front of the goal. It's a shame that Wondow did not get to see the field. I suppose he would have, had Holden not been injured, using the first substitution.
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
1 bad game after being one of our better players for the last 9 months….
When will we learn to stop overreacting to one good/bad performance. EJ is firmly in the 23 at this point. Obviously, there is plenty more soccer to be played, but lets not throw him off the bus for 1 bad game.
Travis in Miami
But we are talking about EJ. He has been one of the biggest punching bags for a big segment of USMNT "fans". Habits are hard to break for some people.
EJ h@ters gonna pop up whenever there's an opportunity. Same with LD and MB h@ters – as absolutely ridiculous as THAT is,
+1 Good point, we need to learn this.
We've seen this movie before. EJ works his way back into the team, scores some goals against lesser opposition, gains confidence, and then totally changes his style of play and becomes ineffective. It's not one bad game; it's the pattern of his career.
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
He hasn't just scored some goals against lesser opposition as you so dismissively say. He has had complete performances made smart passes, smart runs, worked defensively, ran at defenders, and yes, even scored goals. He has done everything asked of him and more. Like I said, he has been one of our best players over the last 9 months. He isn't going to be dropped from the roster because of this game.
Respectfully disagree on how "bad" EJ was. He controlled various long balls and hard passes very well in this particular game and I don't think that was a particular feature of his in the past. Recognize that on past performances those balls would have been lost to the other team for counters or their possession. He looks better muscled and I think that's a part of it. Never been a fan but he has shown well recently. Too bad he missed a sitter.
Josh D
"Brek Shea (6). Came in an almost immediately made an impact by finishing off Bedoya's pass for the game winner."
Disagree there Ives. Getting in the game and scoring the winner is making a big impact, not almost. Though it could just be a typo.
I thought Johnson played poorly and it's that inconsistency which will see him at home come June. Big deal you do step overs at the corner flag. Learn to do something with it.
Thought Mix deserved to start and he showed why. I hope Holden's injury wasn't as bad as feared, but Mix proved he's capable of stepping up.
Great tournament by everyone involved. Although the competition was as fierce, the team dominated like I've never seen a US team do, and so consistently. The "A" team has struggled against worse.
Grammar check! I'm pretty sure that the "almost" modifies the "immediately."
Josh D
"Brek Shea (6). Came in an almost immediately made an impact by finishing off Bedoya's p@ss for the game winner." – got moderated for using a quote with the naughty word p@ss. The comments are the best part of this site. Hope they get fixed soon.

Your reading comprehension needs work.
Josh, I think "almost" modifies "immediately", such that EJ scoring a goal in his first touch after 18 minutes in the quarterfinal game is an "immediate" impact, whilst Shrek Brea scoring after about 2-3 minutes is "almost immediately". Thats how I parse the verbiage from Ives.
18 seconds for EJ, not 18 minutes, sorry
SBI TroII
I think you misread that sentence. I thought the last part of Shea's comment was very conservative from Ives. Shea put in more than some "hopeful passes". EJ missed frankly a sitter from Shea and I think think Donovan mishit a header sent in by Shea.
Yeah, EJ did do a lot of useless standing with the ball, but he also won lots of headers and lots of balls flighted into the Panamanian third. I've watched too many US forwards have a poor first touch and lose the ball right back into the opponent's attack to not appreciate EJs good work as a target forward.
Mix Diskerud was absolutely incredible and no doubt in my mind the Man of the Match. The guy is fearless out there, and his defense was outstanding and he was all over the field all the time. I admit, I did not get it when the Mix fanboys were crying for him to be called up all the time the past year but I get it now. I hope to heck a better team in a better league swoops in and takes him and would almost bet that it will happen this summer.
– With Goodson's current form, he may have pushed Orozco out of the CB picture for the time being, If he keeps up the form during MLS, he may get the start for the August friendly.
– Parkhurst was steady and consistent the entire tournament. He's not flashy, or a big threat to go forward, but was very effective in the back. If he keeps up the form in Germany, I could see him getting on the WCQ team. Orozco might still get an opportunity there, with the status of Cherundolo uncertain.
– The Panama CBs were the core of their team, and were as solid as we'll see in CONCAFAF. EJ was not going to get a lot of space or free opportunities up top, not the way he was marked. I do think he has improved and matured a lot in comparison to past years, and expect that improvement to continue.
– I think Bedoya helped himself a lot in this tournament. He integrated well in JK's system, which shows good knowledge of tactics, and is a bigger threat for scoring than other wing MFs in the pool. I would think he is only going to improve after moving to this new club in the Netherlands. I think he has a good chance to make the bench for the August friendly.
– Both Mixx and Holden are competing for the same roster spot, and it's clear now Mixx will get the opportunity in August and the WCQs with Holden's unfortunate injury. I give Mixx credit for taking advantage of the opportunity, and stepping up defensively during the tournament. He's become a more complete two-way player.
– Beckerman unquestionably deserves a future call-up, but is competing against some stiff competition. He's behind Bradley and Jones, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Cameron positioned more in the CDM role going forward, which will impact Beckerman's future chances.
Can we give JK high marks again for a commendable coaching job, even from the stands? His player selection, tactics and game plan were well executed, even if he wasn't on the bench. But overall, he added depth and competition at nearly every position in the Nat pool. Well done!
@Paul: I thought Klinsmann did a great job through the Gold Cup–until the final yesterday. I think it was a mistake to start Corona at left wing and to start Holden. We were stuggling offensively in the first half. The team had been playing great with Torres on left wing. Either Bedoya or Corona could have played right wing, but I would have given the nod to corona. I don't feel quite as strongly about the decision to start Eddie Johnson, but I would have gone with Wondow.
In any case, a happy ending. This was a great showing from the USMNT B-team. Truly inspirational and no doubt the A-team players are feeling a bit nervous these days about holding onto their spots on the roster.
Definitely some room for subjective disagreement. But when it turns into a win, you kind of have to give the benefit of any doubts to the coach, and give him some credit. If we had to play the game twice, I'd like to see what Wondo would've done, perhaps subbing EJ later, but I was OK with Johnson's performance. And I'm with JK on Bedoya>Corona. But it's tough to criticize a win.
Completely agree about Corona, EJ, Torres & Holden. And, completely agree about result.
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
-CB picture looks like Besler, Goodson, Gonzalez, Orozco……Cameron is the wild card of that group. He could start at CB, RB or CM at this point or just be a jack of all trades off the bench. Orozco's future on the team depends on how Klinsmann wants to use Cameron I think.
-I agree Parkhurst was steady but still wouldn't be entirely comfortable with him starting next summer. Same story with Evans. They both did a solid job when called upon but seem like limited players to me. RB is starting to worry me.
-Spot on with EJ. He has improved himself a great deal and is clearly a much more mature player. Off day for him vs Panama but I believe he will be a contributor next summer.
-Bedoya/Mixx/Holden/Beckerman comments. agreed
Parkhurst or Evans at RB just don't seem suitable against tougher competition. Evans is probably the better option of the two simply because he provides excellent service from the wing ("the best defense is a strong offense" and all that). Still, we need a stronger RB to avoid pinning our RM with extra defensive concerns.
So, is the back line:
FabJo – Besler – Goodson – Omar
FabJo – Besler – Goodson/Omar – Cameron
FabJo – Goodson/Omar – Cameron – Besler
Or am I forgetting someone?
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
We will never see Omar or Besler at RB. Just not going to happen nor should it.
Cherundolo and Chandler are the most talented options but have huge question marks to go with them
Cameron, Parkhurst and Evans are serviceable options on the right but don't inspire much confidence there.
I've heard Fabian Johnson's name tossed around a few times as a RB option keeping Beasley at LB. Worth looking in to.
Lost in Space
I think ultimately that the RB spot will fall to Chandler or Fabian. Will depend on how the 1st half of the Bundesliga season plays out.
Wild cards are going to be Dolo & Lichaj. Dolo coming off an injury will have to show that he can regain his fitness and get time on the field with his club. Lichaj is with a new club in the championship…if he gets a starting role with his club and shows consistency he can make a case for himself. If both fail to impress by Dec. we'll have Evans & Parkhurst fighting it out for that backup role.
I get no Omar at RB, but why not Besler? Is that based on him being too valuable in the center or not capable of RB?
Why do you worry about Cameron at RB?
FabJo would be great at RB, but Beasley really is not great at LB. He's good, but not great.
My question @ssumes that we need a strong alternative to Cherundolo—whether he regains form or not.
I doubt that Lichaj will get much or any time under Klinnsman. I'd like to see it, but I don't think we will.
And, in response to Lost in Space, I don't have any confidence in Chandler's commitment to playing for the US. If I were betting, I'd expect Yedlin to be more likely that either Lichaj or Chandler.
Putting my Jurgen "crazy like a fox" Klinnsman hat on, I'd like to test Brek Shea at LB with FabJo at RB.
Yeldin is an exciting attacking fullback, unfortunately, sometimes he forgets to defend. Would he be ready for 2014? is going to be tough.
Our best hope is this:
FJ — Besler — JAB — Cameron
Tis but a hope for now though.
I have no idea how Brek Shea can look so awful some of the time but somehow has the ability to come in and change the game, like he did twice against Mexico and then in the Gold Cup against Costa Rica and Panama. The guy is carrying a lucky spell or something. I still do not want to see him as a starter, but Shea might be just what we need for emergencies as a late substitution next summer in Brazil. I hope the guy can get his act together and win a starting spot at Stoke and quit doing stupid stuff like posing for a photo in the locker room holding a pig's head.
I think Shea is the preferred choice at LM for Klinnsman, but he has yet to fully earn it. And yes I am talking about the "A" squad. When right, Shea has a wicked set of skills/athleticism, but he is wrong as often as he is right.
FabJo LB, Shea LM would be extreemely athletic- extra "e" intended.
When Eddie Johnson does his "step over move", you really can read the paper and have a cup of coffee, wait for him to finish, then position yourself so he passes backwards.
So happy he has resurrected his career but yesterday it looked like the "old Eddie Johnson" that some him floundering around Europe and moved out of the USMNT picture. The "no move" move, the missed sitter, the easy falling (not diving), the attempted head but, etc. I also liked how after Brek stepped in, protecting him from the big guy (forgot name), EJ decided to get tough with a guy half his size.
Don't read the clippings EJ. Keep working!
He's the #2 striker IMO. Jozy-lite. I am OK with him in any contest, even if I would rather have Jozy in there.
Announced attendance of 57,970 surprised me. All my Mexican friends sold their tickets. Trying to figure out who all went. I still heard classless fans screaming "Puto" on every US goal kick. They must think that's funny, but IMO it's a poor example for the children in attendance and poor sportsmanship. When I was in Mexico City I was impressed by the number of families that would go to the park on Sundays to see the sons and fathers play their games. It was a family outing. Didn't hear anyone screaming bad words. Anyway, I expected more empty seats at Soldier Field. Who did attend?
the unmistakeable Ronaldinho
Did you happen to attend any Liga MX games while in Mexico? I've been to a few down there it was the entire stadium yelling i on every kick. Part of their soccer culture I guess. Not something we should pick up on though.
I'm glad to see that 'you suck a$$hole' is dying out'
Is anyone forgetting that Bradley and cameron are still the best combo,
Even tho jones is still first choice
No one is forgetting that Bradley and Cameron played excellently together…what was it, once? or was it twice?
At any rate, it's premature to *conclude* that Bradley+Cameron is better than Brandley+Jones.
The rest of the comments here I think are merely pointing out that even though Bradley/Jones/Cameron'Diskerud are first choice CM, there has to be depth to the roster (especially if Cameron is played on the back line).
Agree with KGE.
What is most exciting coming out of the GC -as many have mentioned- is the depth the USMNT now has established. (thanks JK and staff)
As far as Brazil next year, we could see real formation and player moves to suit the competition: unheard of before. Substitutions could be a real, exciting thing, rather than a thing of dread.
Ideally, I would like to see the "team" attitude and mutual respect grow to where there is considered a starting XV, rather than just a starting XI.
Jones is an enforcer, too bad he won't just play the damn #6 role and allow Bradley to run the field. Cameron will though, too bad he doesn't play with Jones's edge. All three>than Mix.
not much to draw from this game or this entire B-rated gold cup. sadly, panama decided not to play soccer in the final, withholding what would have been US's one shot at a decent game against a respectable opponent.
final produced exactly 1 shot on goal – FOR BOTH TEAMS
over the entire camp id say bedoya slipped ahead of castillo as the emergency outside mid – 23rd spot on roster
if diskerud can either produce some offense in norway or (better yet) move from norway, he may get a closer look
D: beasley, besler, brooks, chandler, dolo, gonzo, goodson, fab johnson
CM: bradley, edu, jones, kljestan
A: altidore, bedoya, boyd, dempsey, donovan, johansson, zusi
?: cameron (currently starting RB with stoke)
I think there were atcually 3 shots, but point well taken.
Travis in Miami
I think we can draw a lot from this tournament. For example when looking at players like Edu, Sasha, Bedoya and Boyd, there are options that don't give the team a lot of drop off and could actually be debated are better than the selections in your squad.
(Not to mention this is assuming that Brooks and Johansson fit in well).
Sorry, this tournament taught us a ton about these players.
I swear to God Kleijstan better not be on this team while Brek Shea watches a bunch of right footed players try to lump up the left side.
any thought to doing a grade per roster player for the entire tournament? Maybe that's something that's just not done but it would be interesting.
Naugles made two good posts on EJ. He can be so brilliant – Honduras, El Salvador. But he can be frustrating, too, watching his work rate appear to go down, seeing him pullthings like that head butt stunt. Do that against Italy in the WC and you're gone along with your whole team.
I like talent but not when it is combined with stupidity.
That said, what a Cup! Thoroughly enjoyed it and looking forward to the next game.
To Bosnia and beyond!
I think that the CB's played well but the gaudy high ratings reflect more on the 70% possession stat that the USA had rather than their play. Also I was a bit concerned that the coaches saw the need to put in Gonzo when Panama just started bombing it in for the last couple of minutes. Our CB should not have needed the help.

AT&T Unveils Powerful New Web-Based Parental Control Feature for Wireless Service
AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless Allows Parents to Stay in Touch With Children While Setting Sensible Boundaries for Use
San Antonio, Texas, September 4, 2007
AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) today announced an innovative new Web-based feature that allows parents to stay in touch with their children while controlling the children's mobile phone use. AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless™ is a feature-rich service that allows a parent to set usage limits on a child's talk time, text messages, instant messages (IMs) and downloads, manage how and when a child can communicate, restrict access to mobile Web sites and allocate minutes among users of shared wireless plans.
AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless is the latest addition to the AT&T Smart Limits™ program, an initiative designed to bring together information about parental control features across AT&T's wireless, wired, broadband and video services. AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless helps parents protect children from inappropriate calls, texts and Internet content by allowing parents to block numbers they deem inappropriate and filter access to content inappropriate for children on their child's phone. Parents also have the flexibility to go online and change the limits at any time.
"AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless enables parents to provide their children with the safety and convenience of wireless service while setting sensible boundaries for its use," said David Christopher, chief marketing officer for AT&T's wireless unit. "AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless gives parents peace of mind in knowing they will be able to keep in touch with their children but will avoid unexpected overage charges on their bill."
With AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless online service, customers can:
- Limit the number of minutes that their children can use a wireless phone.
- Set limits on text and instant messages.
- Establish a dollar amount for download purchases, such as ringtones and games.
- Control the time of day and days of the week that the phone can be used.
- Block calls and text messages to/from numbers they don't approve.
- Filter access to Internet content that is inappropriate for children.
Calls and text messages to and from numbers designated as "Allowed Numbers" and calls to 9-1-1 are permitted regardless of restrictions to allow families to keep in touch.
By collaborating with children to set sensible limits for using a wireless phone, parents can help their child learn how to manage calling and messaging habits and work within a budget. When children near the established usage limit for any of their wireless capabilities (minutes, text/IM or downloads), they receive a warning notice. Once a limit is reached, the service will be restricted.
"AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless is another way AT&T is integrating services and features to help customers manage content delivery across any of their devices and decide what is appropriate for their family," said Christopher.
Results of a recent AT&T survey revealed that 84 percent of consumers believe parental controls and safety tools are extremely or very important in keeping children safe while they use today's entertainment and communications technologies. Nearly one-third (31 percent) of those adults do not feel that they have adequate knowledge of how to use those tools to protect children from today's threats.
"Children have more tools to communicate than ever before and need to learn to use them responsibly," said Stephen Balkam, CEO of the Family Online Safety Institute. "AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless gives parents the ability to limit their children's use of text messages and teach them to use their phones more responsibly. Just as important, parents can sensibly control their children's wireless access and protect their children from unwanted calls and messages."
AT&T Smart Limits for Wireless is available for $4.99 a month for each line for AT&T wireless consumers who subscribe to a new or existing postpaid rate plan. No special handset is required.

A Thunderstorm - Poem by Hezekiah Tiamiyu
Whirling from the west,
Madly running without rest,
Sharply, all vests abreast.
Windvanes runs out to the test,
The wind is truly from the west.
As the wind sweeps along the paths,
Like a king trees bow as he pass.
Is this arrival not a world class?
Every lass the mighty tree has,
Falls as the wind proves his class.
The pregnant cloud takes her form,
Saying the pregnant cloud is set to born,
Once again a very mighty storm.
All white and yellow to black they turn.
Thence comes that heavy thunderstorm.
Darting in and out, madly.
Traders praying, 'Rain go away, ' sadly,
Children, out with their pants, happily,
Dancing, singing, 'Rain, rain fall heavily'
As the rain pours down madly.

Recent comments by industry leaders have not helped.
The SA Government decided to review SAMAG after former Normandy boss and the state's economic Development Board chairman, Robert de Crespigny, questioned the project's viability, adding there was a history of disasters when big projects were attempted by small companies.
AustMag chairman Roland Williams repeated this comment at Friday's tense annual meeting when he belatedly admitted it was "always a big call" for such businesses to produce big projects.
Despite the AustMag legacy, Magnesium International and Latrobe are quick to point out AustMag's massive cost overruns will not occur at their projects.
Unlike Stanwell, SAMAG's proposed $740 million smelter in Port Pirie is based on proven DOW technology, has a power contract below market prices and has an offtake agreement for 100 per cent of capacity with Germany's TKMetallurgie, which hopes to sell the magnesium to car makers.
Mr Galt has also accused Mr de Crespigny, a one-time AustMag backer, of having a conflict of interest and not understanding the SAMAG project. Latrobe argues the pilot plant using its untested technology will be overseen by Canadian multinational Alcan International and conducted responsibly. Both believe that demand for the light metal from car markers will remain strong.
The real test for Magnesium International will be to raise $80 million in "cornerstone" equity away from the retail market. SAMAG is seeking three investors to take $20 million equity stakes, on top of $20 million pledged by construction group Thiess, as well as a $20 million contribution from the Federal Government, which is still smarting from its exposure to AustMag.
Latrobe is looking to raise $500,000 by July 18 that will trigger payments of $2.8 million in federal and state government grants.
"We've had a few light metal disasters in Australia - both in nickel and magnesium," Latrobe chief executive Chris Sylvester said. "But we will get the $500,000 and keep working on convincing people that this is a low-cost project that will be done right."

Q: I got this fireman's trumpet, badge and bell at an estate sale and would like to know what they're worth. I was told the bell was used going to a fire.
A: Donning our clairvoyant's turban, we deduce that the reader seeks current market value because he's hoping he got a deal.
The reader adds that the badge and bell accompanied the trumpet.
To clue readers, fire memorabilia is a hot collecting category. Pardon the pun. Antique and early items, from badges to trumpets, bells, engine lights, fire extinguishers, hose nozzles, buckets and more are prized.
As with other areas of collecting, top dollar goes to certain objects with specific attributes.
Take that trumpet, for example. Pre-bullhorns, fire trumpets were for speaking. In this country, they go back to the 1700s. Imagine a metal cone up to 25 inches high with a flared bottom and what looks like an eyecup at the speaking end.
In the earliest days, fire protection was a for-pay service. As a form of insurance, members were issued a metal plaque called a firemark to put on the front of their house to indicate that they were covered. The fire brigade would see it and stop. A neighbor without a firemark would be out of luck.
It figures that given how collecting works, original firemarks are highly collectible. Warning: Marks have been widely reproduced since the beginning, and some repros are old and very good.
Widely used, old trumpets were made for use or presentation. Working horns used at fires were brass, nickel or silver-plated brass. Some were even tole, with a painted surface. Today's collector expects them to show signs of use, including dents and wear.
Presentation trumpets were also common, given for an occasion or recognition or as a gift. Some are quite fancy, with elaborate engraving and long decorative tassels.
As seen in an image, our reader has a working version: We spot what looks like a large dent in the bell. Images sent are not clear, so we can only comment generally.
Written info sent says the horn is 16 inches long, with a 6-inch-wide bell. The mark "Weidner" refers to a maker of fire equipment.
In this category, most current collectors go for fire items where they can connect. Some like regional fire companies. Others prefer items marked with obscure and/or obsolete companies. Still others want marked early items from existing companies in major cities.
Checking sale and auction databases, we found work trumpets resembling the reader's that sold recently for $180 up to $300. His is a standard version and would price on the low end, unless a buyer wants the particular maker's mark.
Presentation horns ran up to $3,000 depending on inscription and condition.
Badges sold for around $20 and up depending on company and markings. All were under $100. The bell is a cow bell, not a fire engine bell. I doubt that it was used going to the fire.
FYI: "Firefighting Antiques and Memorabilia" by James Piatti and Sandra Piatti ($49.95, Schiffer) covers the gamut of fire collectibles and is most complete guide available. Includes 2001 prices.
Q: I inherited a collection of antique spectacles. How do I find info and values for them? Is the completely dark pair for a blind person or a welder?
A: For serious information, go to www.oaicc.com online for the International Ophthalmic Collectors' Club. Founded in Britain, it includes pros in the field who know their stuff. Membership will give access to archives and expertise.
When an outstanding collection of nearly 500 pairs of early opera glasses sold early this year at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers in Chicago, members descended on the sale and/or bid online or by phone. They paid up to $1,875 each for stunning examples, and every single pair sold.
Another alternative is trolling the Web. You may find limited info that way. Welders wore protective goggles. The blacked-out lenses were for the photo sensitive or blind.
Q: Why was leather adopted for fire helmets of the 1800s?
A: Leather deflected falling bricks and slate. Later, leather was embossed and painted.

The Best Offer @ MIAMI SHORES
Multiple Dates
Event Details
A master auctioneer becomes obsessed with an extremely reclusive heiress who collects fine art.
Virgil Oldman is a solitary, cultured man whose reluctance to engage with others, especially women, is matched only by the dogged obsessiveness with which he practices his profession of antiques dealer. He's never been close to another human being, not even Robert, his only friend - a young, skillful restorer of mechanical devices from every era. The day he turns sixty-three, Virgil receives a phone call from a young woman who asks him to handle the disposal of some family works of art. But when the time comes for his first site visit, the girl fails to appear, nor, for various reasons, is she present for the taking of the inventory or for the transportation and restoration of the pieces. More than once Virgil is tempted to bow out of what appears to be nothing but a bothersome mess, but on each occasion, the mysterious young woman, locked in her own obsessional world, convinces him to continue. And with this, the old antique dealer's life begins to take an unexpected turn. It is Robert who shows him, step-by-step, how to win the heart of a young woman who is afraid of the world and, caught in the middle of this puzzling game of chess, Virgil soon finds himself enveloped by a passion that will transform his grey existence forever.

'Battle of the Bands' is a fun lesson activity that gets students engaged in working cooperatively to read rhythms and perform together.
Grade 4-6
Students will work in cooperative groups (bands) to prepare and perform a song, rhyme or speech piece on non-pitched percussion instruments to develop rhythm reading and ensemble skills. This lesson is designed to fulfill Standard #5 of the National Standards for Music: Reading and notating music.
Student music textbooks
Non-pitched percussion instruments
Step 1
Tell students, "Today you will have the opportunity to participate in a 'Battle of the Bands'. The winners of the 'Battle of the Bands' will win a piece of candy/certificate. Before we divide the class into bands, let's go to the white board."
Step 2
Review several of the rhythms from the piece you have selected that may present a challenge to the students.
Step 3
Ask students to get in groups of 4-5 students.
Step 4
Ask students, group by group, to select the non-pitched percussion instruments for their band. Ask students to get textbooks and turn to the appropriate page.
Step 5
Tell students, "You will have approximately 10 minutes to work together and practice this piece to the best of your ability. At the end of the practice time, we will listen to each band perform their piece. Bands will be evaluated on the following criteria:
Tempo (Was the beat steady?)
Rhythm (Were the rhythms performed correctly?)
Balance (Could all the parts be heard? If students spoke the piece along with the rhythm instruments, could they be heard?)
Step 6
Practice. Teacher circulates around classroom to help students.
Step 7
Tell students, "It's time to begin the 'Battle of the Bands'. Please place books and instruments on the floor."
Step 8
Review evaluation criteria.
Step 9
Listen to, evaluate and rate each band after their performance. Ask the class how they did. Was the beat steady? Were the rhythms performed correctly? Could all the parts be heard? Assign a point value or combine a point value with a bar graph to show results. Record the results on the white board.
Step 10
Award the winners!
Have fun!

See now this is where all the girlies are at! I've been writing on and off since I was 13. Took a break at 19, did all the responsible things, now have two kids and took up sketching again about a year or so ago. Still have that old school style and I'm loving some of the new styles around today so slowly but surely trying to progress. I feel that I can't do illeagal stuff anymore due to crappy adult responsibilities and I wouldn't want to put my kids in jeopardy over not having their mum about. Here's a nice site:
I recently posted a sketch in Lust's Penism thread for him:
Lust by Dust

The Aidan O'Brien-trained filly was making a quick return to the racecourse, having just broken her maiden at Naas on Oct. 14.
The Rockfel has proven a good indicator of future high class fillies, as the past two runnings have been won by Finsceal Beo and Speciosa, both of whom went on to capture the Stan James One Thousand Guineas (Eng-I) as 3-year-olds.
Love of Dubai, a daughter of More Than Ready , went to the front shortly after the break and led the field of ten at a good clip through the first six furlongs. Johnny Murtagh kept Kitty Matcham held up toward mid-pack until the final furlong, when the pair traveled strongly between horses to range up alongside of the new leader, Missit.
The pair battled for a few strides until Kitty Matcham started to pull away in the final 100 yards, eventually winning by a neck. Missit had to settle for second, three-quarters of a length in front of Royal Confidence.
Final time for the seven furlongs was 1:27.01 over the good to soft going.
Kitty Matcham is by Rock of Gibraltar out of Imagine, by Sadler's Wells. She is a full sister to multiple stakes-placed Red Rock Canyon, and a three-quarter sister to group I winner Horatio Nelson.
Her dam, Imagine, was named champion 3-year-old filly in England after capturing the Vodafone Oaks (Eng-I) and Irish 1000 Guineas (Ire-I) in 2001. Imagine is a half-sister to champion Generous, winner of the Budweiser Irish Derby (Ire-I) and Ever Ready Derby (Eng-I) in 1991.

Atlantis expedition, Todd (briefly)
- "They were just simple villagers with no military experience but he trained them in all forms of combat."
- ―Rodney McKay[src]
In an alternate reality, Ronon's strike force was a group of Humans from the Pegasus Galaxy, led by Ronon Dex. After Teyla Emmagan died in 2008, Lt. Colonel John Sheppard was sent 48,000 years into future, and heard that in that timeline, Michael Kenmore started wiping out entire populations who were too weak to become part of his crusade. Ronon left Atlantis and formed his own faction of volunteers.
After they were trained for every skill and tactic Ronon knew, they managed to have made some successful attacks against Michael's facilities. In one instance, Ronon met "Todd", who also came there to sabotage Michael's base. Together, Ronon and "Todd" managed to destroy the lab, with them inside. Other squad members left the planet via Stargate before the explosion.
As Sheppard managed to return in time to stop Michael's plan, Ronon never had to leave Atlantis and form his own strike force. (SGA: "The Last Man")

German Energy Market Fallout from the Japanese Earthquake
The German response to the Fukushima nuclear power plant incident was possibly the most significant change of policy towards nuclear power outside Japan, leading to a sudden and very significant shift in the underlying power generation structure in Germany. This provides a very useful natural experiment on the impact of changing proportions of conventional fuel inputs to power production, helping us to see how changed proportions in future as a result of policy moves in favour of renewables are likely to impact. We find through exploration of a conventional demand- supply framework that despite the swift, significant change, the main impact was a relatively modest increase in prices occasioned by a shift of the supply curve; there were no appreciable quantity effects on the market, such as power outages, despite some views that the impacts would be significant.

Buccaneers Sign Second Round Pick Seferian-Jenkins
(via TampaBay Buccaneers Communications) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced today the signing of 2014 NFL Draft selection Austin Seferian-Jenkins.
Seferian-Jenkins (6-5, 262) was selected in the second round (38th overall) from the University of Washington, where he started 35-of-38 career games, including each of the last 28 he played, recording 146 receptions for 1,840 yards and 21 touchdowns. Despite declaring for the NFL Draft as an underclassman, he owns the top career marks in receptions, receiving touchdowns and receiving yards by a Huskies tight end. In his final year at Washington, Seferian-Jenkins won the John Mackey Award, given annually to the nation's top collegiate tight end.
A native of Fox Island, Washington, Seferian-Jenkins attended Gig Harbor High School, where he was a five-star recruit and one of the top prep tight ends in the country. Following his senior season, he was selected to multiple All-American teams.
The team also announced the signing of free agent wide receiver David Gettis.
Gettis (6-3, 220) – who participated in the Buccaneers mini-camp on a tryout basis – originally entered the league as a sixth round draft pick (198th overall) in the 2010 NFL Draft by the Carolina Panthers. He spent three seasons with Carolina, starting 13-of-17 games, recording 37 receptions for 508 yards and three touchdowns. He was placed on injured reserve prior to the 2013 season.

| Since you are asking for public comments I must register my intense dissatisfaction with the decision that it is safe for humans to ingest cloned meat and milk and milk products. Never before has the FDA undertaken such a serious decision as to how meat is grown for the dinner table. I am not ever interested in eating cloned meat or ingesting cloned milk and the idea makes me nauseated. Tampering with nature is not an objective of the FDA and I ask that you respectfully leave cloned foods out of the American food chain. It is truly nauseating to think your steak or chicken breast could be genetically manufactured. Tampering with nature is best left alone. The FDA is not God. The FDA was severely wrong about Vioxx as one of the latest failures and I beg you to not make ALL Americans victim to this hideous obnoxious idea to grow meat in a lab. What if you are wrong, you have been wrong before> This is an extremely bad idea and I will use President's Bush term.... I reject cloned meat and milk. Please rethink this bad bad idea. Thanks.

Richard Heimberg is a researcher, psychotherapist, and current professor at Temple University. Cognitive behaviour group therapy was founded on principles developed by Heimberg at the University of Albany's Centre for Stress and Anxiety Disorders. His focus lies on anxiety disorders, specifically social phobia. He has published more than 250 articles and books on social phobia.
In 1983, he became the first researcher to receive National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) funding to study psychosocial treatments for social phobia after the term first appeared in the third edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders in 1980.
