JONATHAN WOODGATE could return from injury for Middlesbrough's Capital One Cup tie at Oldham Athletic tomorrow night.
The defender did not feature in Saturday's opening day win over Birmingham City, and has been struggling with calf and back problems throughout pre-season.
However, head coach Aitor Karanka revealed Woodgate is in line to make a return at Boundary Park tomorrow, while right-back Damia Abella could also be involved.

Boro haven't confirmed the right-back's arrival yet, but Abella is on Teesside and has already trained with the squad.
Asked whether the Spaniard could make his debut against Oldham, Karanka said: "We are trying to get it done so he can play tomorrow, but I don't know at this stage.
"I'm not sure if he will be in the squad because he has only just started training with the team and I don't want to disrespect the players that have been training with me for six weeks. But if everything is done I would like him to come with us."

Work is underway at the CTS Inc. ...
During a webcast, Calgon Carbon Corp. provided additional information about its recent acquisition of Waterlink's Specialty Products Division. Through this transaction, completed on Feb. 18, Calgon Carbon acquired the operating assets of Waterlink's U.S.-based subsidiary and the stock of Waterlink (UK) Limited. The purchase price was approximately $50.1 million, which included $35.2 million in cash and an estimated $14.9 million in assumed liabilities and direct acquisition costs.
Known as Barnebey Sutcliffe in the U.S. and Sutcliffe Speakman in the UK, Waterlink Specialty Products is a provider of specialty activated carbons, value-added services, and related equipment for use in water and air purification, solvent recovery, odor control, and chemical processing. The organization employs nearly 250 people at 11 locations in the U.S. and the UK.
Commenting on the acquisition, John Stanik, Calgon Carbon's president and chief executive officer, said, "We believe we are creating a stronger company due to anticipated cost savings and growth through synergies and economies of scale." The acquisition is consistent with Calgon Carbon's strategic plan to strengthen its core carbon and service businesses through acquisitions and/or alliances.
In addition to substantially increasing Calgon Carbon's market position in coconut-based carbons, the acquisition enhances the company's leadership position in impregnated carbons, expands on-site service capabilities, and extends its solvent recovery product lines. The acquisition also complements existing product lines with the addition of potable and expanded custom reactivation and additional capabilities in industrial air purification. Also, Calgon Carbon's customer base will be broadened due to Barnebey Sutcliffe's and Sutcliffe Speakman's specialization in small volume customers.
Mr. Stanik added, "We are not only acquiring a company with excellent carbon and service capabilities that have been proven in the marketplace, but also a company with a strong historical financial performance that we expect will be accretive to earnings in 2004. Despite a challenging economic environment, the company maintained EBITDA levels over the past three years."
For the fiscal years ended 2001, 2002, and 2003, the company's earnings before income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) were $7.2 million, $7.3 million, and $7.5 million, respectively. For the corresponding periods, sales were $65.1 million, $64.0 million, and $66.9 million.

PopGun Presents Soon to Be Innocent Fun:
Soon to Be Innocent Fun: Shannon F. (Light Asylum) DJ, ERAAS
Ritual Howls, FELTE (DJ Set)
Glasslands Gallery
289 Kent Avenue
Brooklyn, NY, 11249
Doors 11:30 PM
This event is 21 and over
On its acclaimed self-titled debut, Light Asylum takes the synth-pop sound of '80s groups like Depeche Mode and develops it into something new. It's not an easy feat, considering how often that sound has been copied and mimicked, especially over the past decade during brief fads like the electroclash trend.
The difference is Shannon Funchess. A fierce vocalist, she shouts and bellows with stentorian intensity, making Light Asylum seem thrillingly dangerous
Originally raised in Seattle, Funchess moved to Brooklyn in 2001 and spent the next decade contributing vocals to a variety of bands, including TV on the Radio, !!!, Telepathe and Teengirl Fantasy. Light Asylum began in 2007 as a solo project, with Funchess collaborating with other musicians.
Light Asylum solidified when Funchess met multi-instrumentalist and producer Bruno Coviello, while the two toured in support of another Brooklyn artist, Bunny Rabbit. "We realized we had similar interests and influences in our taste in music," she says before rattling off a list of industrial and darkwave bands they like, including Front 242, Cabaret Voltaire, Ministry and Clan of Xymox - as well as house music producers like Frankie Knuckles and Green Velvet. "I found someone I could actually write with," she says.
Light Asylum's debut was released in April. The lead track, "Hour Fortress," is dedicated to Billie Holiday and other black musicians in the early 20th century who were resigned to being "artists in a racist country." Its most explicitly political track is "IPC," which stands for industrial prison complex; more subtly, there's "At Will," which is a call to "kill our ego" and stop asserting our alpha dominance over others.
From 1999-2011, Robert Toher led the atmospheric post-rock band Apse, but by 2010, he was growing frustrated with that group's direction and organization. He started working on a separate project, ERAAS, with Apse guitarist Austin Stawiarz – Toher is drawn to the word "eras," he says (it had also been the title of a limited-edition Apse album). Toher and Stawiarz holed up in an old house in Northampton, Massachusetts, and gradually refined their new sound: dark, repetitive, richly-textured grooves, incorporating dissonant found sounds and unnerving reverberations. Before long, ERAAS became the duo's main musical outlet.
After relocating to Brooklyn, they completed their self-titled debut album in 2011, although it's taken more than a year to see the light of day. It's a splendidly unnerving recording, moving from eerie chamber music ("Black House") to spidery rock songs ("Ghost") to a pair of spectral dance-rock tracks, "At Heart" and "Briar Path," that come off like a blurrier, weirder version of the kind of skeletal funk ESG was playing in the early '80s. Toher's echoing high tenor appears here and there on ERAAS, although it's often hard to tell exactly what he's singing – "voice as instrument is important to me," he says. The only attempt to transcribe his lyrics that's appeared thus far is so riddled with gaps and guesses that it looks like translated fragments of lost literature, which seems appropriate.
Paul Bancell, Ben Saginaw, and Chris Samuels are RITUAL HOWLS. They are meat machines making noise and sights. Noise with an ebb tide of melody. They collect samples of collisions, scrapings on concrete, pounding metal & oak. Chris Samuels, formerly of DI_SECT, time stretches the samples and sequences them along with the beats. Ben Saginaw, painter of nineteenth century criminals, collector of wandering lines, gives the low end it's grip. Paul Bancell. Words and music. Feral. Leaves claw marks on your soul.

Graduate Admissions and Enrollment Services at William Paterson University THE MASTER OF ARTS THESIS Students write the graduate thesis in the last semester of graduate work with the advice of a faculty member, and while taking English 6990: Research and Thesis Seminar. Before the student can write the thesis, however, the student must be assigned a faculty advisor, and must submit a thesis proposal. Here is the timeline for submitting these documents. 1. Declaration of Intent. This one-page form briefly describes the area in which the student will be writing the thesis, and asks the student to list three faculty members with whom he/she would like to work. In consultation with the faculty, the committee will determine the best fit and assign the student an advisor. This form must be filled out TWO semesters before the student plans on writing the thesis and taking English 6990. The due date for this form is announced in graduate classes, and posted on the listserve but is generally due two weeks before the Thesis Proposal Workshop. This form must be filled out and returned on or before the due date. Forms handed in late or not handed in at all may prevent the student from securing an advisor. 2. Thesis Proposal Workshop. Approximately one month before the thesis proposal is due, a one-hour workshop will be held to explain in detail how a thesis proposal should be written. The workshop is widely advertised in the Atrium, announced in graduate seminars, and posted on the listserve generally two weeks before the workshop. 3. Thesis Proposal. This document specifically details your thesis project. The thesis proposal must be prepared in consultation with the student's thesis advisor, and must be signed by said advisor. The thesis is general due one month after the workshop. Late proposal may not be considered. After the proposals have been handed in, the Graduate Committee will review them and either accept them without change, or ask that specific changes be made before the student is allowed to continue. Students will be notified by mail about the committee's decision. Revisions to the proposal are generally due three weeks after the notification. 4. Thesis. In order to enroll in English 6990 and write the thesis proposal, a student must have completed at least 27 credits in the Graduate Program. A student may take other classes while enrolled in English 6990 and while writing the thesis. The writing of the thesis will be done in consultation with the student's advisor and with members of the Thesis Seminar. A final grade in the Seminar will be given based on the student's final project and participation in the seminar. The faculty advisor and the Thesis Seminar instructor, in consultation with each other, will give the student the final grade for the Thesis Seminar. For the thesis to be considered complete, the student must receive at least a B- and have finished the program. 5. MA Thesis in Literature. For the thesis, the student will establish a clearly defined area of literary study. The student must be able to demonstrate an ability to synthesize and evaluate literary theory. The clearly written, well-focused thesis should be 7,500-10,000 words in length and incorporate original insight with primary, secondary and contemporaneous critical sources. 6. M.A. Thesis in Writing. For the thesis, the student will write a 75 plus page manuscript that indicates advanced skills in writing in one of a variety of genres: fiction, drama, non-fiction (such as memoir, biography, critical essays), screen writing, journalism. For poetry, the student will write a 40 plus page manuscript. 7. Graduate Colloquium. At the end of the Thesis Seminar, a colloquium will be held where the student will give a brief presentation of his/her project. Participation in this colloquium is required, and is considered an opportunity to share one's work with the English faculty, and with family and friends. 8. Handing in the Thesis. After successfully completing the Thesis Seminar, and shortly after the presentation at the colloquium, the student will hand in a copy of the thesis to the Graduate Program Director. A binder will be given to the student near the end of the semester. A second copy of the thesis should be presented to the student's faculty advisor. If the student is in the writing concentration, he/she will also hand in the portfolio. 9. Graduation and Diploma. It is the student's responsibility to file for graduation with the Registrar. Once the student's final grades have been handed in, the student will be cleared for graduation, and the diploma will be mailed to you. Students preparing the thesis proposal should consult the following documents: Thesis Declaration of Intent Thesis Proposal Guidelines: Literature Thesis Proposal Guidelines: Writing Thesis Proposal Cover Sheet Thesis Title Page Sample Guidelines for Thesis Completion: M.A. in Writing Guidelines for Thesis Completion: M.A. in Literature

CBS News, August 11, "Skilled Labor Shortage Frustrates Employers [1]":
(CBS) Job openings at businesses fell to 2.54 million in June from 2.6 million in May, meaning there is now five unemployed workers on average for every job opening.
There's a brighter spot in manufacturing, where some companies are looking for workers, CBS News Correspondent Cynthia Bowers reports.
On a quick tour of her family's factory, Linda Fillingham proudly shows off employees making the metal parts that go into some of America's biggest machines.
What's holding her machine shop back isn't a shortage of work. Instead, it's a shortage of workers, whom she's willing to pay $13 to $18 an hour.
That's not to conflate the importance of a skilled workforce with the issue of attracting people with advanced engineering, scientific, programming or mathematical training as noted below [2].
The latter is more akin to this April CBS story, "New Nuke Plants Face Skilled Labor Shortage [3]."
(CBS News always seems interested in these workforce topics, which we appreciate.)

Stephen Sondheim is Broadway's living legend. A master of tonal composition, he's the genius behind such classics as A Little Night Music and Sundays In The Park With George. And recently he's seen tremendous success with two re-imaginings of his 1979 masterpiece Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. The first was the stunning cinematic translation by director Tim Burton, starring Johnny Depp as the title barber and Helena Bonham Carter as his cohort in crime, Mrs. Lovett. The second was a stage revival directed by John Doyle, who stylized the show almost beyond recognition. He used a single stage and two coffin-shaped objects to suggest the different locations in the show. And, most dramatically, Doyle had the actors play all the musical instruments. The revival was an instant hit, playing to sold out audiences in New York and Los Angeles. Doyle attempted to capture lightning in a bottle twice by offering a similar staging of an earlier Sondheim work, Company.
Company is a rumination on marriage and love in an increasingly metropolitan and cynical world. It centers around main character Bobby, a perpetual bachelor, and his 35th birthday. He's surrounded by married friends, all of whom are determined that this year they will convince him to join their ranks. Through a series of vignettes, Bobby encounters each couple and learns a little more about their lives together. At the same time, he tries to decide whether or not marriage is for him, and if so, who he should share his life with.
Company was a bit of an anomaly when it premiered in the early 1970's. Deliberately ambiguous and full of dark, tough humor, the show offers neither easy answers nor particularly enjoyable characters. Bobby is the best of the lot, and he's generally indecisive and detached. He wants to enjoy the benefits of marriage without the drawbacks. The rest of the characters seem flat out miserable in their relationships. The men often declare outright envy for Bobby's bachelor lifestyle, while the women practically demand that he get married, probably so they no longer have to feel drawn to the lure of his single status. Despite the overall downbeat nature of the show, it is often very funny, with memorable dialogue and even better music.
However much success John Doyle may have found with his bold new take on Sweeney Todd, he can't replicate it with this flat retelling of Company. Sweeney is a very elastic story, and the stylization of Doyle's staging recalled the show's Grand Guignol roots. While it didn't have the same effect of a fully staffed staging, it certainly provided an interesting alternative take. Company, on the other hand, is best told on a larger scale, with a more realistic setting. Doyle has stripped Company down even further than Todd, placing the actors on a square under lit stage with only a Roman column and a grand piano to suggest apartment furnishings. The column is distracting and the piano is almost never used. The actors not currently in the scene sit off the side of the stage, playing their respective instruments. It's not flattering and detracts from the core of the show.
Musically, the concept also falls flat on its face. Company, as the title suggests, is something best performed by a full company of players. The radical re-orchestrations of the songs are inelegant and strip the music of a lot of its beauty and urgency. The singing isn't so bad, with the exception of Joanne Walsh, who is so shrill and noxious that I think I'd rather get kicked in the balls than hear her voice again. It doesn't help that in the spoken dialogue scenes she simply does Elaine Stritch instead of coming up with her own take on the character of Joanne.
The saving grace of the production are the spoken word scenes, which generally retain all of George Firth's dark comedy. In particular, Raul Esparza is great as Bobby, coming off as effortlessly charming while also selling the internal conflicts of the character. And his voice is excellent. If only he had been allowed to play the part with a full orchestra and some real staging, we could have had a true revival of this Broadway classic.

So I am in the planning stages of a full gut renovation of our home, and need some advice.
I want to integrate my old school hi-fi system including a turntable (LP12), analog radio tuner along with some newer digital and non-digital sources.
So here are all my envisioned source components:
Analog radio tuner
Wii gamesystem
CD player to be used as a transport
Latest generation Tivo or verizon's fios DVR set top box
Blu-ray DVD player
DAC (not purchased yet)
I have an old Audio Research preamp feeding an old Rotel power amp connected to some B&W 805's.
The turntable, tuner and Wii are analog sources, so they will be connected directly to the preamp.
However, I am planning on getting a separate DAC (which will connect to the preamp), but I am not sure what is the best way to connect everything digital to the DAC.
I can either connect all four digital audio sources directly to the DAC, if I can find a DAC that has four inputs or find a digital audio switch of some sort to allow the DAC to receive more sources than it has inputs. (What kind of effect do such switches have on the sound?)
Or I can plug the CD player (as a transport) and squeezebox directly into the DAC, and since the TV will be fed signals from the tivo/cablebox and Blu-ray via HDMI, connect the digital audio out from the TV into the DAC, and let the TV switch audio between the two sources. The added bonus of this setup is that I will not have to change the input of the DAC when switching between cable and DVD.
So I either have three or four digital audio sources.
Will passing the digital audio through the TV degrade the sound?
Is there another way to connect all of this that I am not considering?
We have a relatively small co-op apartment, so I do not want to bother with a multi-speaker setup. Two-channel audio should be just fine in the small living room. Even adding a subwoofer to add some boom for movies would just annoy the neighbors.
We are building a custom cabinet for most of the gear, so I need to work out all the wiring ahead of time.
Thanks in advance,

Josh Smith scored eight of his 26 points during a 12-0 fourth-quarter run that wiped out a 98-92 Bucks lead and gave the Pistons the lead for good. His 3-pointer with 1:11 to go and a subsequent dunk put the game away in the matchup of the NBA Central Division's two worst teams.
Brandon Knight had 25 points and Ramon Sessions added 20 points and 11 assists for Milwaukee, which lost its 10th consecutive road game and dropped the season series 3-1 to the Pistons.

Ethics Line Disclosures
Reporting Methods
This reporting line does not replace or supersede existing reporting methods. LMU strongly encourages University employees to report concerns of misconduct to supervisors, Human Resources, Internal Audit or through other established channels whenever possible. Student misconduct should be reported through Student Affairs or to Public Safety. Certain matters cannot be accepted through the reporting line because they cannot be appropriately addressed when the reporter chooses to remain anonymous; Loyola Marymount University may not be able to investigate such allegations in an anonymous report. Reports on these matters will be forwarded to Human Resources rather than divisional SVP's or other managers. Reporters should contact the appropriate HR representative to complete such reports.
Please use the recommended procedures outlined by the relevant University policies to report Discrimination or Sexual Harassment, matters related to Faculty Grievances and other matters involving employee complaints.
Report Processing
Reports submitted via Ethics Line will be handled promptly and discreetly. No retaliatory action will be taken against anyone for reporting or inquiring in good faith about potential breaches of the University's policies or for seeking guidance on how to handle suspected breaches. Reports submitted through the Ethics Line will be given careful attention by LMU with the objective of correcting the situation being reported, once the facts have been corroborated.

Does anyone have the "MyFitnessPal" app? Wondering if I should add some people to it to help keep me motivated?
Posted By tanlover14 on 09/22/2012 06:30 PM
How does it work? I was just looking at it and I need an app to keep me motivated to work out and watch what I eat also! But I couldn't really get the jist from my quick glance on the app store.
I haven't really used it, to be completely honest, I should start though! What it is, is you put in your weight, height etc. and it will give you a caloric intake you must consume for the day. You log what you eat and when you exercise. You can have buddies and they can give you little motivational posts and stuff. It was rated high on the app store so it must be good! haha I think it tracks your weight and has a graph to show your progress too. I'm not sure on that one though, but I THINK I saw that. lol =)

Gun Makers Handed a "Get Out of Jail Free" Card
Howard Nations, National Trial Lawyers Association joins Thom Hartmann. Even though their guns are responsible for thousands of deaths every year - the gun industry is largely shielded from any lawsuits related to the deaths and injuries their products cause. How'd we allow the gun industry to gain immunity - and is there any way for this absurd protection to be repealed? We went after Big Tobacco with a massive lawsuit in the 1990's - why can't we do the same against the gun industry?

THIS CLIP is from the DVD "RISE" (Confluence Films, 79 minutes), yet another cinematographic adventure for fly fishers from Chris Patterson and Jim Klug, the producers of "Drift." The new DVD travels to the Florida Keys, Argentina, Alaska, New Orleans, Idaho and Venezuela and profiles anglers, guides and icons in their home waters. This clip features René Harrop — known on the Henry's Fork as the "Trout Hunter" — describing his close connection to one of the most fabled trout streams in North America.
EXCERPT: "I think I was destined to be here and to make my life right here. And that's the way it's been. 55 years later I still feel the same excitement, the same surge of energy and the sense of something very special about this place."
"The truest sense of happiness, of joy, is when we're where we want to be, and we're doing what we want to do."

Commentary: Big Airlines: Not Much Runway Left
For the nation's biggest airlines, the day of reckoning is at hand. And if they didn't already know it, they should now. With the rejection on June 17 of United Airlines Inc.'s (UALAQ ) second attempt to get $1.6 billion in federal loan guarantees, the Air Transportation Stabilization Board has made it clear that major carriers have nowhere to taxi to escape the onslaught of the discounters. Even if United does persuade the board to give it guarantees in its third and final attempt, that won't solve what's ailing United.
United has already made deep cuts since entering bankruptcy in December, 2002, lowering costs by almost a third. Pilots, aircraft lessors, and retirees have all chipped in to create $5 billion a year in savings. Still, that's nowhere near enough to return the carrier to health. With fuel costs soaring, United, like most legacy carriers, is still losing money. And low-cost players, which have gone from 16% of domestic capacity in 1998 to about 29% today, are flourishing. No amount of government aid can -- or should -- fix that.
That's why United is going to need more cost-cutting and perhaps a smaller network to save itself. Industry analysts believe the company must attract a private equity investor with or without loan guarantees.
But such a player would likely demand new management and cuts in areas once deemed untouchable. The biggest target: employee pensions that, in their present form, will cost the company at least $4 billion over the next five years. And if United cuts pensions, that would put pressure on American (AMR ), Delta (DAL ), and Northwest (NWAC ) to do the same.
United and other so-called legacy airlines must continue to remake themselves -- or die trying. Delta and Northwest are currently in negotiations with pilots to cut wages. Northwest is seeking givebacks from other unions, too. And Continental has warned it will need labor concessions to survive. Since 2001, the legacy carriers have chopped operating costs by $13.4 billion and have reduced payrolls by 100,000. Yet so far not one network major "has gotten to where they need to be for long-term viability," says airline expert Daniel M. Kasper of consultancy LECG Corp. (XPRT ) Pensions aren't the only problem. Health benefits, inefficient work rules, and seniority-based pay scales remain crippling. And with sky-high fuel prices and leaner winter travel ahead, maneuvering room for some big players may run out.
How the shakeout will unfold remains far from clear. Even some of the carriers that seem most endangered, like US Airways Group Inc. (UAIR ), could pull off a last-ditch transformation. And if the government rejects United's loan guarantee for a third time, the carrier could gain the leverage needed to win far lower benefits and wages, turning it into one of the most formidable network players.
It's more likely that one or more carriers will follow in the footsteps of such dinosaurs as Pan Am, Eastern, and TWA. "Labor will clearly do something" at both United and US Airways, predicts one high-ranking airline executive. "Whether it will be enough is the question." Vaughn Cordle, a United pilot and financial analyst who runs AirlineForecasts LLC, questions whether airline employees truly understand the magnitude of the problems facing their carriers, especially the crushing debt and pension costs. If workers refuse to make the necessary changes, he believes, airlines such as United will be forced to start selling assets. In short, they'll slowly begin to liquidate, and that will only exacerbate cost and revenue problems.
Of course, a move to shrink by some of the biggest players could certainly help the rest of their beleaguered brethren. But those carriers will hardly have room to breathe. Such low-cost juggernauts as Southwest (LUV ), JetBlue (JBLU ), and AirTran (AAI ), which could grab as much as 35% of domestic capacity by 2009, will continue to put pressure on costs and pricing. And those majors that do survive face a difficult future with debt-laden balance sheets. "I don't see any of them coming out strong," says credit analyst Philip Baggaley of Standard & Poor's (MHP ). More pain and turmoil clearly are on the horizon. And, as United is discovering, time is running out.

Are the US Obsessed with Cloud as much as Europe was with Open Source?
by Andrea Di Maio | June 23, 2010 | 6 Comments
Over the last month or so there have been a couple of worthwhile events about the US Federal Government's cloud computing activities.
The first one has been the publication of an interesting report, authored by the federal CIO Vivek Kundra, on the State of Public Sector Cloud Computing. This is a compendium of what the federal government is doing as well as a list of actual and announced projects at federal, state and local level. The purpose of this report is to boost confidence in the progress of the cloud computing agenda and to show to reluctant agencies how several government organizations are making or considering the move.
The second one has been the launch of a request for proposals by the General Services Administration (GSA) for cloud-based email and collaboration services. This is probably the highest profile move to email as a service after the one undertaken by the City of LA. According to Vivek's report, also the Department of Interior would have announced an agency-wide e-mail as a service program, but ironically their CIO, Sonny Bhagowalia has been hired by the GSA Office of Citizen Services to deal with – guess what? – the cloud portfolio.
Taken at face value, these events witness the unstoppable force of cloud computing in the US government. Indeed I and my colleagues who cover cloud computing receive an increasing number of inquiries and requests to help frame RFPs for cloud-based services. Therefore reality seems to be matching perception.
However, it is interesting to note that Vivek's report contains quite a few "announced projects", where no contract has been awarded yet, nor is there any evidence that savings have been accrued or value created. One of the oldest GSA projects, the move of USA.gov to cloud, is still on-going and I guess it will take some time before one can assess total cost of ownership and savings (this was a subject of debate after a wrong statement about expected savings a few months ago).
Vivek's report also mentions interesting development spearheaded by NIST, such as SAJACC (Standards Acceleration to Jumpstart Adoption of Cloud Computing) and FedRAMP (Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program), both of which are deemed essential to overcome some of the residual skepticism about using cloud computing in government. Unfortunately all it says about both is the general goal and what NIST role is, but does not say what the progress is nor to what extent either or both are going to make life easier.
While there is increasing awareness about cloud computing, and the offerings are rapidly maturing, all this buzz keeps reminding me about the excitement of European, South American and Asian governments about open source (see here for an article from 2001). This was complemented and reinforced by the well-justified interest for open formats (see Belgium and Denmark ruling in favor of ODF, and the never-ending debate about whether Microsoft-backed OOXML is good enough).
While the use of open formats and open standards is becoming a requirements in most system and software public procurements in Europe and elsewhere, there are also some governments that actively push for open source or mandate that open source alternatives are considered for any procurement. However, with few exceptions, the advice is always to use open source where it demonstrably delivers value for money (see the UK latest open source policy).
What Vivek's report says about the federal budget planning reminds me of those positive discriminations forcing agencies to think about the use of open source and somewhat prove why it can't be used. In fact the text says:
By September 2011 – all newly planned or performing major IT investments acquisitions must complete an alternatives analysis that includes a cloud computing based alternative as part of their budget submissions.
By September 2012 – all IT investments making enhancements to an existing investment must complete an alternatives analysis that includes a cloud computing based alternative as part of their budget submissions.
By September 2013 – all IT investments in steady-state must complete an alternatives analysis that includes a cloud computing based alternative as part of their budget submissions
I almost feel I could replace "cloud computing" with "open source" and things would still look the same.
I have raised a few times (see here) the intriguing relations between open source and cloud computing.
But I find quite ironic that governments use the same mechanisms (hype and pilots) for both, as they actually serve different purposes and benefit different audiences. Indeed, one could say that both help save costs (although this must be demonstrated on a case by case basis). But while open source (together with open standards) aimed at reducing and preventing vendor lock-in. cloud computing is all about being locked-in with vendors.
Indeed, as Vivek says, there are standardization activities going on, but they are still far from being well articulated, let alone produce any actual result. If there is anything to learn from the ODF vs OOXML battle, standardization processes may be difficult and adoption of standards by vendors is not a straightforward task.
I am not sure that those who are pushing for massive cloud computing adoption today are putting enough thought into the total cost of ownership of cloud computing solutions, including their exit cost.
Exactly like for open source, the right approach is in the middle. Cloud computing is one possible sourcing option to consider, alongside traditional outsourcing, remote hosting, infrastructure utility, on-premises software and so forth. It is not end, but a means to an end (cost-effective IT).
It would be great if the cloud "knights" in the US federal administration would study the recent history of open source and open standards in European governments. They may conclude that they need more caution in promoting vendor solutions, a more heavy hand on standardization and interoperability and a less religious approach to the cloud as THE solution to all the IT evils.

Thoughts on Are the US Obsessed with Cloud as much as Europe was with Open Source?
[…] This post was mentioned on Twitter by Andrea DiMaio, Toshio Matsuda. Toshio Matsuda said: [Gartner] Are the US Obsessed with Cloud as much as Europe was with Open Source?: Over the last month or so there … http://bit.ly/cpfTvX […]
I am an open source realist. We face the situation that there is a grotesque gap between market realities and government activities, and the reason for that is unreasonable lobbying from third nation players against open source for European government use, an attempt of shooting in the cradle to defend established market positions and ideological positioning. As a result Europe is lacking behind and fails to reape the full benefit from its digital policies. However, all parties understand that you get open standards policies for free when you aim for open source, and that anti-open source lobbying doesn't stop with that objective and moves the goal post to combat open standards. As of cloud services it is a bit holding the lobby horses that convinced the governments that this was the future.
"If there is anything to learn from the ODF vs OOXML battle, standardization processes may be difficult and adoption of standards by vendors is not a straightforward task."
How about that:
– participants in standard development need to be independent from their sponsors to enable a proper technical review. It is abusive to fire professionals who failed to get a technically immature standard accepted. The IEEE ethics code is a model.
– we need new tools for crowdsourcing standard review and editing, web based standards meeting and more access to the standard institutions
– License models have to be universally accepted and enable legal confidence in multiple jurisdictions, whether it is RF or FRAND. We need model licenses for both, just like the EU did with their EUPL process for code licensing.
I'm not sure I agree with the comparison of US cloud computing "obsession" and the European one with open source.
I mean, I can see your points, but I also believe that open source (and not because I am or am not an open source evangelist) was (or actually is) way more strategic for Europe than cloud computing can be for anyone.
Besides the widely referred to issues of open source about one not being locked in (specially a government), security, customization, flexibility, interoperability, data ownership and a long etcetera, there are two aspects of open source that make it worth the "obsession" for European politicians, which actually are the two sides of the same coin:
– to stop the huge and expensive imports of software from overseas (mainly from the US), and their direct impact on the balance of payments
– and to help developing a national/local software industry, with its direct and indirect impact on jobs, R+D+i outcomes and their multiplier effects, etc.
So, while I share your observations on the US obsession with cloud computing, I think that European obsession with open source was more than justified — especially in comparison with US's
You mean the European Parliament buying iPads and the Spanish Parliament buying iPhone 4s for their MPs, for instance? 😉

NEW YORK, Oct. 8 (UPI) -- The World Trade Center tragedy has spawned several Off Broadway dramas but none with the cutting edge of a satirical comedy about a bibulous gourmet dinner party from hell titled "Omnium Gatherum."
American playwrights are just beginning to grapple with the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and their efforts began to show up for the first time in this new theater season. The subject hasn't been tackled as yet on Broadway, which depends on more popular entertainment themes or sure-fire revivals.
"Omnium Gatherum" was the outstanding entry in the Humana Festival for New American plays in Louisville, Ky., earlier this year, and is getting an $800,000 production at the Variety Arts Theater. As its title implies, the play is about a mixed bag gathering, mostly of intellectuals, at the dinner table of a famous life-style autocrat named Suzie, a caricature of Martha Stewart.
The terrorist bombing of the twin towers is a recent occurrence and the trophy party guests assembled by the socially ambitious Suzie still duck whenever a helicopter swoops over her Manhattan penthouse apartment.
The play by Theresa Rebeck and Alexandra Gersten-Vassilaros follows closely on the opening Off Broadway of "Recent Tragic Events," which reduces 9/11 to maudlin soap opera dimensions, and "Portraits," a more serious take on the event that deals with altered lives. "Omnium Gatherum" is more of an audience-pleaser, laced with contentious confrontations, dark humor, and flimsily disguised parodies of well-known personalities.
In addition to Stewart, the playwrights have created characters satirizing novelist Tom Clancy, journalist-commentator Christopher Hitchens, Mideast affairs expert Edward W. Said, who died last month, a feminist and vegan who would appear to be an amalgam of several real life prototypes, and a black woman writer less susceptible to identification. There are two other dinner guests -- one dead and one very much alive and dangerous.
Insults and epithets fly around Suzie's exquisitely set table while she serves up each dinner course with a full description of its contents -- golden candy cane beef tartare, wild Columbia River salmon with fingerling potatoes and roasted fennel, Moroccan spiced lamb with couscous (she insists on pronouncing its coush-coush), Anjou pear and endive salad, and strawberry mille-feuilles with mascarpone custard.
The guests occasionally comment rapturously on the food, but seem more interested in drinking and mauling each other with words. It's the sort of free-for-all in a civilized setting that lets audience members wallow in a sense of superiority as to how they would act under the same circumstances. It also confirms their suspicions that celebrities are ill-mannered egomaniacs.
Nevertheless there are plenty of laughs to be had out of the prejudices and ignorance revealed in the shouted crossfire on such topics as Palestinians vs. Israelis, capitalism and the exploitation of Third World poverty, the United States as a world class bully, veganism vs. meaty diets, the frustrations of African-Americans, the inanity of New York Times book reviews, and Hitler vs. Mahatma Gandhi.
The ideas and opinions proferred on these subjects seem shallow and are seldom debated at length, reducing the evening to a rosary of sound bites that reminds the hearer of a talking heads show on television. Only Khalid, the Mideast expert played with a modicum of dignity by Edward A. Hajj, comes across as a cool head in an overheated exchange, even though some of his views are couched in laughably opaque language.
"So we are then, all of us seeking, let's say, a false oneness to pull us through the demanding duality of life," Khalid observes in his role as "The Voice of Reason."
Another quiet voice is that of Jeff, a guest sympathetically played by Joseph Lyle Taylor who is revealed late in the play and jolts the dinner party momentarily until the arrival of a threatening terrorist named Mohammed played by Amir Arison, whom Suzie serves up along with the petits fours as her piece de resistance.
Mohammed touches off another shouting match that unites the other guests in such a false sense of moral righteousness that they begin to dance together to the strains of "I've Got the World on a String," a signal for an apocalypse to strike, dragging the dining table to a fiery underworld in a shower of debris that looks for all the world like Mardi Gras confetti.
Will Frears has directed this fearsome lampoon with an eye to making it as inflammatory as possible.
He is ably assisted by a strong cast that revels in over-the-top acting -- Kristine Nielsen as the maddeningly silly Suzie; Phillip Clark as Roger, her loudmouth novelist boyfriend; Jenny Bacon as Lydia, the sexy vegan with a pregnant secret; Melanna Gray as Julia, the black writer with attitude; and Dean Nolen as Terrence, the overbearing Cambridge-educated journalist.
Designer David Rockwell has contrived a simple but glamorous setting for Suzie's party illuminated by a threatening-looking chandelier made up of glass icicles that adds to the eerie lighting design devised by Jules Fisher and Peggy Eisenhauer.
Junghyun Georgia Lee's costumes capture the casual look preferred by contemporary intellectuals perfectly, and restaurateurs Peter and Penny Glazier's dinner menu reflects the current penchant for pretentiously prepared foods culled from around the globe.

Not too shabby!
Hey Chester, it's MK16SniperRifle from Xanga! This animation demo wasn't bad at all, even though it was a demo. The plot can unfold in later animations, so let's not worry about that one. Sometimes the greatest stories start in the middle of the book ^_^ It does leave me wondering about the storyline, so that's good!
Yes, the jumping thing really is unstable. For a while, I was floating in air, lol. Like GuitarNProgress said, the Special Attacks need some work and creativity to'em when they come around. I do think that each mission should have two separate special attacks (this just gives the game more individuality).
Music & voice acting = awesome! Good job on that one! Hmmm let's see... I need enemies I can shoot! Like 'Space Lackeys' or something! Once again, I agree with GuitarNProgress about the movie AFTER the battle with the Boss.
Other than the above mentioned... I can seriously not wait for the next episodes to come out! Fantastic work on this!
Thanks for the review, buddy! And yeah, I made a lot of improvements for the next one gameplay-wise.
Rated 2.5 / 5 stars
I liked the idea of it and it seems like it is going to turn out well i only saw a few things that need improvement
1.The characters legs didnt move when i was walking
2.The plot seemed a little random and didnt tell us much
(but i suppose well find out in the future ones)
All in all it looks good and ill wait for the next one
Thanks for the review. I know about the not moving part, happened on the ramp I assume? It's caused by the jumping engine, and most likely I'll remove the "ramp" in the complete version.
Sorry for the randomness of the plot, that was not my intention (or is it?). I hope it left your wondering more about the story.

it's pretty good
Rated 3 / 5 stars
I'm surprised at all the reviewers. Unlike most (apparently), I actually tried out the game system. Let's see what I can give you on THIS one :).
: Game Overall -
Okay, you have your character that can jump, shoot, move, and react to the environment even allowing for a special when the yellow bar fills up.
Enemies: Yeah, there was one. However, it's really lacking. I'm surprised with the apparent power that the person has (you having to walk through the "maze" and all [this isn't a joke or sarcasm, by the way]), I feel there should be sub-minions at the least. It annoyed the hell out of me, though, walking up to her and the movie part taking over. I feel the movie that came should've been after an actual fight with her.
Engine: This needs work, too. It looks nice, yes, but it's lacking some of the most important parts, which is the enemy to pc reactions. Hypothetically, if I get shot by Minion A I should lose 3% health. If I shoot said Minion, he should lose... say, 20% health. What tells the game itself that my shots (and his as well) are hitting? What tells the game that I'm in Minion A's firing range? What tells the game where my shots should end at? If I hit the minion, it should stop at him, right? Or even the wall for that matter.
Interface: A cleaner interface would be nice. The Controls should be in the Controls option from the main menu, IMHO. Just try to clean it up a bit and only put important information there.
Special Attack: I liked this concept, but there needs to be more behind it. Is this the only special attack I'm allowed? Will I be able to change it? Does it change mission by mission? Will there be another button for me to press to initiate a different move? Perhaps SHIFT + S for the special "Surging Plasma" would be sufficent, and work well for whenever the PC has more specials allowed to them.
Misc.: The background needs more work and detail to it. The character has a very Samus Aran/Metroid type stance (I like it, personally :)). The movie portion lacks plot. My biggest complaint, though, was the sudden stop of Voice acting. There's no reason you couldn't have implemented it during the battle as well. The music is there to heighten the user's mood to your set the mood, not create it :). Good job on your submission and I'll follow up and see what you can come up with. Hope this helps.
One word about your review: WOW. I will consider your suggestions without a doubt.
The interface I can do, and I just realized that there will be some "daytime" stages so that transparent look might make it hard to see.
I originally planned two special attacks, but kept it at one for simplicity's sake and seeing how I'll have multiple characters playable through the series.
I'll focus mainly on boss battles but there'll be some stages to go through depending on the story. Very nice suggestions for the minor enemy AI, even though it's out of my league, I hope to make it Megaman I quality, or maybe Castlevania.
The sudden stop in the voice acting is due to my original plan of having voices limited to the "in-game" segments, I may have the whole thing voiced depending on demand and file size.
I was kinda afraid of not having enough plot, but the "complete" version will definitely have one.
I'm glad you like the character, I'm really proud of her design and looks.
Again, big thanks for your review.

The goal of wart treatment is to destroy or remove the wart without creating scar tissue, which can be more painful than the wart itself. How a wart is treated depends on the type of wart, its location, and its symptoms. Also important is your willingness to follow a weeks- or months-long course of treatment.
Most warts don't need treatment. But if you have warts that are painful or spreading, or if you are bothered by the way they look, visit your doctor for treatment options.

It was a fairly bold statement uttered by Tom Lehman in the aftermath of his loss to Tiger Woods yesterday in the Buick Invitational at Torrey Pines. "He whipped the field playing lousy," Lehman said. "I give him a lot of credit."
Now, "lousy" and Woods' vaunted golf game go together in word association about as often as "poor" and his bank account. With his 41st PGA Tour victory, worth $864,000, the 29-year-old has surpassed $46 million in official earnings. But in this case, Woods couldn't present much of a case to the contrary.
"I think Tom probably outplayed me today," Woods said of winning a 31-hole Sunday duel in which he shot 4-under-par 68 in the final round on the South Course to Lehman's 73, winning his third Buick Invitational in seven years at 16-under 272. "He hit it wonderfully all day."
During a bizarre week in which fog delayed portions of three rounds, Woods did not hit it wonderfully. In fact, for much of the time he scraped it around the Torrey Pines golf courses, looking not unlike the guy who struggled for nearly a year with changes in his golf swing.
He hit only 45 percent of the fairways and 68 percent of the greens in the tournament – both stats that were far worse than his mediocre cumulative totals in 2004.
But in the strongest indication yet that Woods might be approaching his former major championship form, he said he actually knew where his missed shots were going. And it didn't hurt that he continues to be an all-world putter in the clutch.
"This is not a game of perfect," Woods said. "It's a game of misses. For me to go out there and miss the ball in the proper spots virtually every time, give myself the best angle ... that's very exciting." The rest of the PGA Tour must be thrilled.
For nearly a year, since last February's Accenture Match Play Championship at La Costa, Woods did not touch a trophy. Now he's won three times in his last four starts, including unofficial wins in Japan and his own Target World Challenge. The Buick victory was Woods' first in an official stroke-play event in 24 tournaments spanning 15 months.
"It's hard to believe it's been that long," Woods said. Woods achieved the latest one in rare fashion, by coming from behind in the final round for the first time since the 2001 NEC Invitational. He was faced with a three-stroke deficit after playing 13 holes yesterday morning to complete the fog-delayed third round. Late in the afternoon, Woods was two strokes down to Luke Donald with five holes to play.
Then it all fell his way. Woods and Lehman birdied the 13th hole, and Donald dropped out with a double bogey on the 14th. Lehman then suffered bogeys on the finishing two holes, and Woods closed out a harder-than-it-looked three-shot win by draining an 18-foot birdie on 18.
Lehman's costly final bogey – the result of a thin third shot at 18 that came up short of the green – dropped him into a three-way tie with Donald and Charles Howell III. Howell might have reached a playoff with Woods, but his bid for eagle came to a stunning end when his ball bounced out of the hole and into the pond fronting the green.
It was that kind of day.
"How about the week?" Woods corrected. "You had to be so patient. I just kept saying to myself that everyone had to deal with it." Woods said he got up at 4:50 yesterday morning, and he played in a slumber when he bogeyed the first two holes after the resumption of the third round, in which he ground out a 72.
The final round was yet another adventure, with Woods hitting only six of the fairways and 10 of the greens in regulation. But he made only one bogey, and for the second time in the tournament he required only 25 putts. It is that kind of pressure that forces his opponents to make critical mistakes.
"I figured we were going to have to make a birdie on the last two holes to beat this guy," said Andy Martinez, Lehman's caddie. "I mean, he gets it up and down from everywhere. All day, he got it up and down."
If this had been match play, Woods' crushing blow to Lehman's psyche might have come at the par-5 sixth. He missed the green left, flubbed his chip and still made a 21-foot birdie putt. Lehman, meantime, reached the green in two shots, but had to settle for birdie and didn't gain ground.
"I played with him the last 36 holes and he mis-hit a lot of shots," Lehman said. "I think he just proved what a great competitor he is with his phenomenal short game. He made all the putts he had to and his chipping was great, but he definitely won the tournament not playing his best."
Woods wasn't about to care how it looked, not after last year. "I'm not out there," he said with a grin, "struggling trying to break 90."

The Good, the Bad and the Incredibly Ugly Fashion at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival
Celebrities in Cannes have been spending the past week partying on yachts and attending glamorous film premieres. Thus, their fashion crimes deserve no clemency.
Celebrities in Cannes have been spending the past week partying on yachts and attending glamorous film premieres. Thus, their fashion crimes deserve no clemency.
So, after a blitz of round-the-world openings, Inception finally had its official, big-deal Hollywood premiere at the famed Grauman's Chinese Theatre. And yes, Ellen Page et al still looked nifty. And then there was the Breast Dress...
There was a mysterious, horrible similarity to many of last night's getups - as if a first-year costume student had outfitted all the stars for a glam-rock interpretation of Kiss of the Spider Woman:
[Los Angeles, January 31. Image via Getty.]
The 2009 American Music Awards, at Nokia Theatre L.A., had the boldfaces: Rihanna, Reba, Paula, Shakira, Alicia, Kelly and hundreds more. And it had clothes: amazing and bizarre. And, oh yeah, it had Bobby Trendy.
Yup, kids, amidst the glitz and glam, things got ugly. Really ugly.

First, there were the Best. Now, we've got the Worst! The feathers, the glitz, the feed sacks... cringe and reminisce with us, after the j ump.
Not that they asked for our advice, but following the New York Times' example, we've decided to list those celebrities we'd most like to see made over in '09.
Last night, nice guy fashion designer John Varvatos and Converse teamed up to put on a shopping fundraiser for Los Angeles' Stuart House, a branch of UCLA's Rape Treatment Center. And Cindy Crawford and her family came! Seriously, does this woman age? Also: could she and her kids look any more adorable? Alas, compared…

Long Distance Touch Lamp
Jewelry designers Jude Rand and Eben Papele hand cut and hammer each piece of jewelry in their Upstate New York studio so that no two pieces are exactly alike. Blending geometric motifs with folk art traditions, they are equally enamored with the very old and the very new.
This delicate necklace is highlighted by two hand-textured sterling silver semi-circles, inspired by the sun setting over the ocean. They hang from a simple silk cord strung with handmade Japanese glass beads. Handmade in New York.
Rand Papele was born of the shared vision of partners Jude Rand and Eben Papele. We met twenty years ago and have been collaborating ever since. It is our desire to create personal objects in our own language of shapes, patterns and symbols that references traditional folk handcrafts as well as modernist schools of thought.
Still haven't found the details you're looking for? Check out our Product Q&A!
Please note, the Semi Necklace - Gold has been discontinued. When it sells out, it will no longer be available.

The company believes its new venture, Tru, will "fill a massive void" in the current marketplace, and claims similarly priced hoteliers offer an "inconsistent product and service delivery".
More than 40% of demand for hotel rooms in the US comes from customers looking to spend between $75 and $90 (£52 and £63) per night - and Hilton says its rooms will fall in this price range.
But although the hotels look set to be brightly coloured and newly built, checking in could be a shock to the system for some - as wardrobes are replaced by hooks on the wall, and the traditional hotel desk is scrapped in favour of a chair with space for a small laptop.
Tru hotels are initially planned in 102 locations across the US and Canada, meaning customers in the UK may have quite a wait before they can make a booking.
The push into cheaper accommodation could prove to be a smart move for Hilton.
Although luxury hotels continue to have the highest occupancy rates in the market, and naturally command the highest nightly room rates, growth has been disappointing in recent months.
The company, which has more than 4,500 hotels worldwide, also appears to have an ulterior motive: attracting younger visitors.
Chris Nassetta, Hilton's chief executive, said the chain hopes to "get them loyal to our system and trade up as they move on in their lives".

The Gift of Church: Everyone, Whether Believer or Not, Needs to Belong
I have belonged to many churches in my fifty-seven years, beginning with St. Pius X in Warren, Ohio, and most recently to both a Presbyterian congregation and a Catholic parish. I hear at least a hundred sermons a year, and the act of listening to a priest or a pastor expound on Scripture is always good, even if the sermon isn't.
Going to church, I've learned, is a gift-a gift that teaches us how to give to others. Everyone-every single person reading this and every person in the world-needs to belong to a church no matter whether they believe or not.
First, church gives its members a regular occasion for concentration on the biggest questions of them all – questions that have been asked since the beginning of time for the simple reason that we are made to wonder about this world and our places in it. Those questions and that wondering are not served-reliably and seriously-anywhere except in a church. And thus that deep, deep hunger is fed only through life within a body devoted to answering these enormous questions of why the world is the way it is and how we ought to live in it.
The second gift a church gives is a community of people-far from like-minded and usually very diverse in terms of social and economic backgrounds-who are inclined to care about these big questions and because of that inclination to act in particularly civil ways. Real communities are very hard to come by. Workplaces are organized for profit, and neighborhoods are far from the stable, multi-relational centers of life they were even a few decades ago. Not so the church.
Church begins by offering the gifts of important conversations and real community, but for those who stay longer than a few weeks, it soon begins to teach gift giving, whether it is some- thing as simple as teaching Sunday school to three-year-olds or helping out with the ushering, or second-level gift giving of dollar contributions or mission work, or third-level commitments of fellowship in a small group or an international mission. A healthy church will be all about gift giving and learning to give. And before you know it, you will be both giving and receiving in quantities you had never ever imagined.
Energy, enthusiasm, and gratitude-three of the seven gifts outlined in my book The Happiest Life-should be evident in every worship service, even the most contemplative. Prayer and singing, the readings and indeed every aspect of church, whether Roman Catholic or Protestant, should be infused with these gifts, though, of course, we are susceptible to "going through the motions." The great worship director or liturgist, the terrific priest-homilist or preacher will be known for the energy and enthusiasm in proclaiming the gospel, and every participant will at least say the words of gratitude that are at the heart of every Christian service, thus setting the tone for a week ahead lived in accordance with the practices of collective worship.
Generosity is a learned behavior. The habits of giving and volunteering that are part and parcel of almost every Sunday school in the country do not go unabsorbed by the children on whom they are conferred and to whom they are modeled.
How much happier people would be if, regardless of their beliefs, they showed up at the same church most every Sunday, said the same prayers, chatted with the same people, heard the same sermons, attended the same potlucks.
Listen to me. This is the key to renewing your life if you are unhappy. Pick a church. Practically any church. Go and go and go again and again and again. Even if you are shy, force yourself to say hello to the greeter and find a second gathering there-a Bible study, a class, a lecture-and go again. After a month you will have seamlessly evolved into a churchgoer and your life will be almost inestimably better.
There are huge theological divisions between churches, but they hardly matter if you are unchurched. Here's my advice: pick the biggest church within five miles of your apartment or house and just go there. Stick there for a year. Then decide if you need to change because of theology. If you are a cradle Catholic, find your closest Catholic parish. Familiarity will make the first few visits easier on you even if you are shy beyond belief.
People want to talk about God and about this crazy world with all its terrors and pains. And people do talk about God and about this crazy world with all its terrors and pains, every Sunday and often throughout the week.
So go.

Spurs given boost with Vertonghen, Paulinho, Sandro and Kaboul in line for Man City return
TOTTENHAM quartet Jan Vertonghen, Paulinho, Sandro and Younes Kaboul could all return from injury for next week's match against Manchester City at White Hart Lane.
All four played in today's behind closed doors friendly win over West Ham at Upton Park, with manager Tim Sherwood watching on from the stands.
Sandro came off at half-time during the 3-0 victory against the Hammers, while Kaboul, Paulinho and Vertonghen all played an hour before being substituted.
And Sherwood was delighted to see all four players back in action.
"It is great news to see so many lads returning from injury at such a crucial time"Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood
"It is great news to see so many lads returning from injury at such a crucial time," the Tottenham boss told Spurs TV.
"They have come though okay and it's good to see them get some minutes under their belts. There is nothing like playing.
"With players of this quality coming back to fitness it reinforces the fact that we have strength and depth in the squad. They are players with real quality and ability. That's what I look for."
Kaboul had been sidelined for two months with a thigh problem while Sandro, Paulinho and Vertonghen have all not played since December.
Sherwood is likely to include all four in his squad for the match against City, as Spurs attempt to exact some revenge for the 6-0 drubbing suffered at the Etihad Stadium earlier in the season.

Nutrition & Healing - Macular Degeneration
By Dr. Jonathan V. Wright
If you've been told you have macular degeneration, your eye doctor may already have recommended that you take an anti-oxidant vitamin and mineral supplement. While this is an encouraging development in "mainstream" medicine, it's only a tiny first step. Mainstream medical practices offer no other remedies.
Actually, much more can be done to slow down and reverse macular degeneration. Although it can't be done every time, our clinic has helped many individuals with macular degeneration improve their vision dramatically.
Vitamins, minerals, at least one amino acid and herbs all help to restore vision for those with macular degeneration. But supplements are only part of what's needed. Nearly everyone we've checked needs improvement in digestion and absorption of nutrients also. After working with dozens of people with the problem, it's my opinion that macular degeneration isn't just an eye problem, it's a digestive problem, too. That's why treatment of macular degeneration using intravenous injection of nutrients is often much more successful than just swallowing them. But that's getting ahead of things. First, let's discuss the typical digestive problems.
Very frequently, in fact almost always, individuals with macular degeneration have stomachs which don't make adequate hydrochloric acid and pepsin to digest their meals properly. many don't make any hydrochloric acid at all! Without hydrochloric acid and pepsin, protein isn't broken down into amino acid as well as it should be and minerals aren't separated from the food as well as they could be, either. Technically, this problem is called "gastric hypochlorhydria", for inadequate production of stomach acid.
Unfortunately, most "mainstream" medical practitioners, including nearly all gastroenterologists, deny that gastric hypochlorhydria is a problem. Proper diagnosis and treatment of this problem requires a doctor skilled and knowledgeable in this area. To find one, you might call 800-241-7517.
Another problem with digestion and assimilation of nutrients common to those with macular degeneration is insufficiency of pancreatic digestive enzymes. Once again, "mainstream" medical doctors usually don't look for this problem, or dismiss it as infrequent.
Occasionally, supplemental quantities of bile salts can be useful, especially for those who've had their gallbladders removed surgically.
Certainly, taking the nutrients and herbs we'll go over next is very important to stopping or reversing macular degeneration, but making sure they're digested and assimilated as well as possible can be just as important.
The key nutrients appear to be zinc, selenium, vitamin E and taurine (an amino acid). Two key herbals are bilberry (European blueberry) and ginkgo. Other nutrients often used include vitamins C and A, beta-carotene and copper.
I usually recommend zinc picolinate or zinc citrate, 30 milligrams twice daily. Since the zinc usually is needed over a prolonged period of time, it's best to "offset" with 4 milligrams of copper, preferably copper sebacate [seb-ah-kate], taken at a different time of day than the zinc.
Vitamin E and selenium are frequently mentioned together as they work together in our bodies. For macular degeneration, I usually recommend 800 units of vitamin E and 300 micrograms of selenium daily.
The amino acid taurine is found in very high concentrations in the retina of the eye. It's available in most natural food stores in 500 milligram size. I usually advise two capsules daily, taken together in between meals.
Bilberry (European blueberry) is available in capsules in a 25% extract. I recommend 80 milligrams, twice daily. Ginkgo is also standardized at 24%. Once again, I recommend 80 milligrams, twice daily.
If your macular degeneration is severe, it's probably wisest to use these key nutrients and herbals individually. Some of the other people I work with who don't have a severe problem also choose to use them separately for a first few months. However, to make it easier, there are several "combination supplements" available in natural food stores containing all of the nutrients I've mentioned, as well as the herbal extracts and other nutrients, also.
If you don't improve by swallowing these supplements, don't give up! Remember, that's almost always a problem with digestion and assimilation accompanying macular degeneration, which definitely needs checking into and proper treatment. It'll help your whole body, not just your eyes! If macular degeneration is more than slight, I recommend starting with injections of the key nutrients to make absolutely certain of the best chance for recovery.
Because of differences in age, sex, metabolism, or potential allergy, these diet and supplement therapies may not be suitable for you. Consult a health care professional skilled in nutritional and natural therapies. To locate one near you, you might call the American College of Advancement in Medicine at 800-532-3688 or the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians at 206-323-7610.
