VIDEO: United hang on to beat Bolton; Liverpool deflated by "balloon goal" at Sunderland; Arsenal sink Birmingham; Villa exploit Chelsea's dodgy defending; Spurs win at Pompey; Hammers lose at Stoke
Manchester United 2 – Bolton 1 (Premier League, October 17, 2009) (MOTD highlights here.) It took United just two minutes to break the Bolton backline as Michael Owen had more than his fair share of luck to see his misguided header ricochet off Zat Knight and into the net. Just after the half hour United doubled their lead, Gary Neville played in Antonio Valencia to slash home into the near post for his first goal since his joining from Wigan. With 15 minutes remaining Bolton hit back as Matty Taylor headed home a Davis cross past the returning Van der Sar between the posts.
Sunderland 1 – Liverpool 0 (Premier League, October 17, 2009) (MOTD highlights here.) The Black Cats raced into an early lead past a depleted Liverpool side without Torres and Gerrard, but Darren Bent's opener was hugely controversial after the ball struck a big red balloon (the balloon was thrown by the Reds' away fans) on its way into the net to take the ball past Riena. Bent had two opportunities to kill the match early in the second half but the striker miscued after rounding Reina and minutes later he hit the post after intercepting a poor back pass.
Arsenal 3 – Birmingham 1 (Premier League, October 17, 2009) (MOTD highlights here.) Two quick-fire goals on the quarter hour from Arsenal, first a tidy left-footed strike from Robin van Persie and then a confident back-post finish from Abou Diaby from Rosicky's low cross, put the Wenger Boys in control. But in the 37th minute Birmingham hit back as fingers will be pointed at Vito Mannone for failing to deal with an up-and-under which Lee Bowyer was able to capitalise on. (First half highlights here.) A late third from Andrei Arshavin wrapped up the points for Arsenal.
Aston Villa 2 – Chelsea 1 (Premier League, October 17, 2009) (MOTD highlights here.) Villa were denied a penalty when Bosingwa had a coming together with Agbonlahor in the 11th minute, and just three minutes later Chelsea stole the lead as a speculative 30-yarder from Didier Drogba beat Brad Friedel when the keeper should have done better. Soon after their was a comedy moment to savour as Nicolas Anelka unintentionally took out Villa boss Martin O'Neill on the sidelines. The smiles were wiped off the Blues faces though just after the half hour as Richard Dunne headed in the equaliser from a corner after Carvalho went walkabout. (First half highlights here.) Six minutes into the second half and Villa Park erupted as Chelsea failed to deal with another corner and James Collins was left all alone to nod in number two.
Portsmouth 1 – Tottenham 2 (Premier League, October 17, 2009) (MOTD highlights here.) Rock-bottom Portsmouth conceded twice in the first half (highlights here) to Spurs, Ledley King brilliantly out-jumping two defenders to head in the first before Jermain Defoe slid in number two from a quick free-kick. Former Lilywhite Kevin Prince Boatang brought Pompey back into the game, and Spurs then had Defoe sent off for a stamp, but the Londoners held on to move into third place in the league.
Stoke 2 – West Ham 1 (Premier League, October 17, 2009) (MOTD highlights here.) James Beattie put Stoke in front with an 11th minute penalty before Matthew Upson headed the Hammers level just after the half hour. (First half highlights here.) Stoke retook the lead as Ricardo Fuller beat Upson down the right and, after his shot was saved by Rob Green, James Beattie slid in to bundle home the rebound.
Everton 1 – Wolves 1 (Premier League, October 17, 2009)Â (MOTD highlights here.) Wolves threatened to take all three points back to the Molineux after Kevin Doyle's second half strike had put the visitors ahead against the run of play. But an eighty-ninth minute strike from Russian midfielder Diniyar Bilyaletdinov rescued a deserved point for the Toffees.
Nottingham Forest 1 – Newcastle 0 (Championship, October 17, 2009) After a patient build-up, Dexter Blackstock netted Forest's winner to shoot down the Magpies.
Blackpool 2 – Plymouth 0 (Championship, October 17, 2009) Marcel Seip marked his debut with the opening goal for the Seasiders, powering home a header in the 31st minute before David Vaughan added a second in the 64th minute as the hosts rose to fifth in the Championship.
St. Johnstone 1 – Rangers 2 (SPL, October 17, 2009) St. Johnstone broke the deadlock with Rangers when striker Collin Samuel broke the visitors offside trap to streak through on goal and coolly slot home. The Gers levelled before the break through Kris Boyd's neat finish from 5-yards after Thomson's shot had initially been stopped en route to goal. Sevn minutes from time Rangers snatched victory as left-back Sasa Papac found himself in space and arrowed a shot past Alan Main from the edge of the area.
Celtic 0 – Motherwell 0 (SPL, October 17, 2009) Celtic were knocked off top spot as they failed to bounce back from their Old Firm defeat against Motherwell. The Hoops had an off day in front of goal with Niall McGinn missing a sitter two minutes before the break, heading Georgios Samaras' cross wide of goal. McGinn then drew a fine save from John Ruddy and Scott McDonald fluffed a late chance, while Artur Boruc produced a fine stop from Lukas Jutkiewicz.
Valencia 0 – Barcelona 0 (La Liga, October 17, 2009) Valencia secured a goalless draw with Barcelona to deny the Catalans a record breaking seventh consecutive victory at the start of the season.
Real Madrid 4 – Valladolid 2 (La Liga, October 17, 2009) Raul blitzed through Valladolid early doors with a brace, the first was a terrific back heel from a Granero cross and the second a sharp finish from the left, set up by Marcelo. Valladolid came back into the game thanks to a terrific free-kick from Aleman but before the break the home side took back their two-goal lead with a fine solo effort from Marcelo. Yet again Costa brought Valladolid back into the equation eight minutes from time, but with 11 minutes to Gonzalo Higuain put the game to bed with a wonderful lob after a great ball from Alonso.
Deportivo La Coruna 1 – Sevilla 0 (La Liga, October 17, 2009) A cracking left-footed drive from Juan Rodriguez blasted Depor into the lead against high-flying Sevilla.
Genoa 0 – Inter Milan 5 (Serie A, October 17, 2009)Â Inter took a three-goal lead into the break at Genoa. A Modesto og set them on their way, Mario Balotelli claimed the second and Dejan Stankovic scored a brilliant third, straight from Amelia's poor kick, just before the break. Jose Mourinho's side added to the scoreline in the second period through Patrick Vieira and Maicon.
Juventus 1 – Fiorentina 1 (Serie A, October 17, 2009) Fiorentina struck early doors at their bitter rivals Juve as Juan Vargas swept a left-footed shot into Buffon's near post. The lead didn't last long as Amauri pulled the Old Lady level in the 19th minute.
Freiburg 1 – Bayern Munich 2 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009) (Longer highlights here.) Thomas Muller and a Cha Du-Ri own goal gave Louis van Gaal's side all three points after they had lost one and drawn one of their last two games. Stefan Reisinger scored a consolation with the last kick of the game for Freiburg.
Stuttgart 1 – Schalke 2 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009) (Longer highlights here.) Schalke struck first thanks to Ivan Rakitic's effort in the 24th minute. Cacau levelled for Stuttgart in the 73rd minute and the turnaround was completed three minutes later as Kevin Kuranyi popped up with the winner in the 76th minute with some ice-cold finishing to claim Schalke's third straight league win.
FC Cologne 1 – Mainz 0 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009) Milivoje Novakovic scored the only goal of the game as Cologne eased their relegation worries with a 1-0 win against high-flying Mainz.
Nurnberg 3 – Hertha Berlin 0 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009) An early goal from Daniel Gygax and a double from Albert Bunjaku condemned Hertha to an eighth straight loss and catapulted Nurnberg out of the bottom three.
Eintracht Frankfurt 2 – Hannover 1 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009) Jiri Stajner levelled for Hannover on 68 minutes after Nikos Liberopoulos had broken the deadlock in the first half, but Frankfurt were not to be denied and triumphed thanks to Alexander Meier's late strike.
Werder Bremen 2 – Hoffenheim 0 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009) After Hoffenheim missed an early penalty, Claudio Pizarro and Per Mertesacker scored to give Werder the lead after just 22 minutes and that was all the hosts would need.
Hamburg 0 – Bayer Leverkusen 0 (Bundesliga, October 17, 2009)
Nancy 0 – Marseille 3 (Ligue 1, October 17, 2009) Mathieu Valbuena gave Marseille the dream start with the opener after just five minutes before late strikes from Brandao (78) and Fabrice Abriel (81) made the game safe for Didier Deschamps' men.
Lyon 0 – Sochaux 2 (Ligue 1, October 17, 2009) A goal in each half from Jacques Faty (17) and Sloan Privat (89) gave Sochaux a famous win and left Lyon with much to think about ahead of their Champions League trip to Liverpool next week.
Montpellier 2 – Saint-Etienne 1 (Ligue 1, October 17, 2009) Montepellier moved level on points with Lyon at the top of the table as St. Etienne were always facing an uphill battle from the moment Yohan Andreu was sent off on the stroke of half-time. Goals from Karim Ait Fana (54) and Souleymane Camara (60) were enough to give Montepellier all three points with Gonzalo Bergessio pulling a goal back from the penalty spot on 71 minutes.
Le Mans 1 – Boulogne 1 (Ligue 1, October 17, 2009) Le Mans looked to be heading for a vital home win when Roland Lamah fired them in front on 62 minutes only for Fabien Robert to grab an equaliser two minutes into injury-time.
Valenciennes 2 – Grenoble 0 (Ligue 1, October 17, 2009) Mahamadou Samassa fired the home side in front on 16 minutes and Fahid Ben Khalfallah doubled the lead five minutes later.
Auxerre 1 – Bordeaux 0 (Ligue 1, October 17, 2009) Fernando Cavenaghi was the guilty man for Bordeaux when he missed from the spot on 32 minutes and things got worse for Bordeaux when Valter Birsa netted the winner for Auxerre 17 minutes from time.
FC Twente 3 – AZ Alkmaar 2 (Eredivisie, October 17, 2009) Kenneth Perez had given Twente a half-time advantage by scoring against his former club but two goals in four minutes through Mounir El Hamdaoui and a Peter Wisgerhof own goal put AZ in front on the hour mark. Bryan Ruiz soon restored parity with a 62nd-minute equaliser, though, and Blaise Nkufo grabbed a last-minute winner to take his tally to six and give Twente a fifth straight league win.
Ajax 4 – Willem II 0 (Eredivisie, October 17, 2009) Eyong Enoh broke the deadlock on the stroke of half-time before Miralem Sulejmani doubled the home side's lead in the 64th minute – just a minute after replacing Dennis Rommedahl. The visitors' hopes of getting back into the game were dashed in the 80th minute when Leonardo Veloso was shown a second yellow card, and Ajax compounded their misery with Marko Pantelic and Luis Suarez scoring late on.
PSV 1 – Heerenveen 0 (Eredivisie, October 17, 2009) Danko Lazovic struck an 80th-minute winner to keep PSV two points behind Twente.
NAC 4 – Vitesse 0 (Eredivisie, October 17, 2009) The visitors were left facing an uphill battle when defender Frank van der Struijk was sent off for a professional foul in the 36th minute and Edwin de Graaf converted the penalty. Kees Kwakman added a second before the break before Anthony Lurling hit a second-half double to send NAC above Vitesse into seventh.
Anderlecht 2 – Charleroi 0 (Jupiler League, October 17, 2009) Lucas Biglia and Romelu Lukaku scored the goals which took the hosts two points clear of Club Brugge, who can reclaim top spot with victory against Gent on Sunday.
Westerlo 2 – Standard Liege 0 (Jupiler League, October 17, 2009) Reigning champions Standard Liege missed the chance to go top as they went down to a 2-0 loss at Westerlo, Dieter Dekelver's first-half brace doing the damage.
Besiktas 2 – Kasimpasa 1 (Super Lig, October 17, 2009) Goals from Nihat (8) and Deivson Bobo (38) put the home side in command before a fiery closing spell saw Fabian Ernst and Matteo Ferrari sent off on 83 and 87 minutes respectively.

'A genuine legend' Thousands pay respect to England great Sir Tom Finney
THE GREAT and the good of British football today joined forces to pay their respects to England legend Sir Tom Finney, who died two weeks ago.
Manchester United boss David Moyes and World Cup winner Sir Bobby Charlton joined 600 mourners at the legend's funeral in his home town of Preston.
Sir Tom, who won 76 caps and scored 30 goals for England, passed away aged 91 two weeks ago.
The winger was famous for his unwavering loyalty to Preston North End, the club he played his entire career for and made 569 appearances with.
He was one of the most genuine individuals you would ever be likely to meet. Everyone admired and respected him
Large crowds watched as the funeral cortege travelled from Preston's ground Deepdale Stadium to Preston Minster.
Former England international Sir Trevor Brooking was among those who paid their respects to Sir Tom.
He said: "He was one of the most genuine individuals you would ever be likely to meet. Everyone admired and respected him.
"To come to this event today, over 50 years since he played, and see all these people both here in the minster and on the streets, I can't think of many who would get the same reaction.
"As a player, he was the match-winner, the crowd-pleaser, the one who could make the difference - I was a youngster in primary school when he was playing, I would watch him on a black and white telly and then go out into the garden with my brother to try to emulate him."
Football League chief executive Shaun Harvey who was among those who attended the funeral described Sir Tom as a "genuine legend" of the beautiful game.
He said: "The great and the good of football have come out to say farewell to Sir Tom Finney - a man who was a genuine legend of our game.
"You only have to mention Preston and Preston North End... the conversation soon turns to Tom Finney and that sums up everything the man did for the club, the city and the game of football."
Manchester United boss Moyes, who started his coaching career at Preston, had previously described Sir Tom as a "great man".
The funeral service was shown live on a big screen inside Preston's ground to a crowd of several thousand people.
Sir Tom was nicknamed the 'Preston Plumber' as his father insisted he train as plumber.
He had continued working in the family business throughout his career which was useful income in the days when footballers were not paid expensive wages.
He was regarded as one of the true greats of English football - and his record of caps and goals came despite having lost six years to the war.
Preston chairman Peter Ridsdale said Finney had "touched the hearts" of the community.
He said: "What I think is wonderful is that so many people - not only from the game but also from the city - have turned out to say farewell.
"This is a player that truly touched the hearts not just of football, but the whole community.
"The whole of Preston has almost come to a standstill in the two weeks since his death, and that is testament to what a great man he was."

After months of getting body slammed, Linda McMahon is ready to suplex the competition with her tag-team partner and husband, Vince McMahon.
The WWE has launched a new viral campaign called "Stand Up For WWE," asking fans to voice their support for the sports entertainment company.
As Linda runs for Senate in the state of Connecticut, she's faced a series of attacks because of her former involvement with the WWE, where she was CEO until stepping down last September.
Opponent Richard Blumenthal and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee have pointed out the WWE's safety standards and tolerated drug use over the years in the months leading up to the Nov. 2 election.
As a last-ditch effort to sway voters, Vince is hoping the WWE Universe can help set the record straight as the Stamford-based company will attempt to "correct factual inaccuracies that have been reported during this election season."
The 65-year-old Chairman and CEO of the WWE along with several superstars will appear in videos discussing various topics including WWE's PG content, treatment of WWE's full-time employees and its performers, and WWE's Talent Health and Wellness Program.
"The nearly 600 full-time WWE employees, as well as its 140 Superstars, all work for one reason – to put smiles on people's faces," said Vince McMahon. "The inaccurate media reports about our company are not only an injustice but an insult to our millions of fans worldwide."
Unrelated to their campaign are two upcoming shows scheduled in the state of Connecticut – – a fan appreciation night in Hartford on Oct. 30 and a Friday Night Smackdown taping in Bridgeport on Nov. 2, election day.
The WWE has indeed cleaned up their act over the years, much to the disappointment of hardcore wrestling fans. The days of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin flipping fans the bird are long gone. Instead, WWE fans are left with boring storylines, no blood and over-the-top babyfaces like John Cena.
Here's to Blumenthal winning the election and the return of the WWE pushing the boundaries of sports entertainment once again.

Who loves chocolate? Yeah, that's what I thought. Almost everyone does.
However, for those of us trying to pursue a healthy lifestyle, we find that we can't indulge guilt - free because of the ingredients in a chocolate bar. The ingredient list below is for a bar that is quite popular in Nigeria. Not terrible but definitely not a healthy bar.
Ingredients Declaration: MILK CHOCOLATE(SUGAR, COCOA BUTTER, CHOCOLATE, SKIM MILK, LACTOSE, MILKFAT, SOY LECITHIN, ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR), PEANUTS, CORN SYRUP, SUGAR, PALM OIL, SKIM MILK, LACTOSE, PARTIALLY HYDROGENATED SOYBEAN OIL, SALT, EGG WHITES, ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR.
So, what is the way out? Make yours of course, and control what goes into it.
The recipe I am going to share with you is easy to prep for, requires just 3 ingredients and can be made in a short period of time. Best of all, you can get the kids involved. It's summer and I know that a lot of parents are running out of ideas to keep the kiddies occupied. You are welcome :)
What are our three ingredients? Cocoa Butter, Cocoa Powder, Honey. That is it. I particularly like this mix because it yields a hardish chocolate which is good for our temperate region weather.
This way, your chocolate will not melt the instant you take it out of the freezer. If you live in a colder place, you can go with half and half of cocoa butter and virgin coconut oil.
You can do that in Nigeria as well, don't get me wrong. Just know that your chocolate will be softer.
So let's talk tools. I would have given you the measurements in cups and tablespoons but Cocoa Butter is not that easy to manipulate in its solid state so it is best to weigh things out. This will also help you if you want to scale things up or down.
You need to gather - A Spatula, Kitchen Scales, Heat Safe container (I used a Pyrex jug) and silicone molds.
The Cocoa Butter is melted in a water bath. Don't pop it into a microwave to melt it.
Not only may this lead it to your cocoa butter burning but will definitely lead to the reduction of the nutrients. A gentle water bath is a better way of melting butters.
Once it is melted, put the cocoa powder and honey in and mix. It mixes very very easily. This step takes less than a minute.
You can adjust the quantity of honey to suit you. I do not like mine sweet at all so I only use a little bit.
Want a variation? You can add nuts and even dried fruits at this stage. You can also be like @eyiyemiolivia and add some dried yellow pepper for a kick. I split my recipe in half and added desiccated coconut.
Just mix it all in as you did the honey and cocoa butter.
Pour into molds and refrigerate/freeze. I find that when I use just cocoa butter, this can be ready within 5 minutes. With silicon molds, these pop right out.
Don't forget to let your little elves lick what is left in the bowl....memories are made that way 🙂
Enjoy your guilt free dessert. Remember, eat just a little of this, the fact that it is "healthy" does not make it free of calories.
- Cocoa Butter 250g
- Cocoa Powder 250g
- Honey (adjust to taste, I use about 100 - 120g)
- *Optional - Groundnut, Almonds, Sunflower Seeds, Coconut e.t.c
- Place Cocoa Butter in a Heat Safe Container
- Melt Cocoa Butter properly in a water bath until it turns to oil
- Take out of water bath
- Put Cocoa Powder and Honey into the melted cocoa butter
- Mix properly with a spatula or spoon.
- Pour into molds.
- Freeze.
- Un-mold and serve.

The prophecies were right : the end of the world is near... Create rituals, craft trees and flowers, fight pollution and organize with your friends to save the world from impending doom !
KWAAN is part RPG, part online virtual ecosystem and part pixel editor !
Every day, the tree god KWAAN needs to be kept happy : if sadness grows into KWAAN's heart, it will take the world (the server) away... To make KWAAN happy, every action counts! Dwaals will need to work together to meet KWAAN's demands: caring for KWAAN's appearance, summoning animals (ducks, penguins, little bees, platypus!!!), crafting flowers, clouds and smoothies, using items, discovering new landscapes, solving mysteries... KWAAN is curious, KWAAN always wants more gifts and novelty!
If the world is kept alive, then, maybe, an answer will be found to the greatest mystery of them all : where do pixel souls come from?
KWAAN is a positive thinking, peaceful, fully collaborative world, exploring the possibilities of online social gaming outside of the current media boundaries.
Originating as an experience commissioned by a cognitive science laboratory, KWAAN has grown into a fully realized virtual world, packed with festivals, challenges and strange happenings. KWAAN is a land made of many different organic systems, all interacting with each other to create a ever evolving context. Our intention is to make a living, thriving pixel world and place the player inside it, as a keeper of all things beautiful. KWAAN is a persistent cocoon, a parallel dimension without violence, a world where players are working toward a common goal, ultimately blurring the boundaries between the intimate and the collective.
KWAAN is the experience of another world, a tiny fragment of imagination adrift in virtuality. It is the song of every pixel, as they reach out for harmony. Come closer...
You have your place in the tribe, a house to customize your character, your inventory and your recipes, and your Ook, a very effective grapnel, to get around and explore the many levels.
At the heart of a fully functional ecosystem, with pollution and 30 different animals, up to 15 simultaneous players per server must help each other to take care of KWAAN.
To make the Kwaan happy, players will use the pixel art editor to develop its branches, summon animals, create flowers... There are also hundreds of items to combine !
Each day at midnight, the game checks the state of Kwaan's mood. If it's too sad, Kwaan will cry and drown the world in tears : the server will crash and the world must restart from scratch...

The Hamptons' hip, historic beach escape
Gurney's Montauk Resort & Seawater Spa, located about 120 miles from Manhattan, is the easternmost of the posh shorefront villages collectively called the Hamptons. Its 2,000 feet of pristine oceanfront abuts miles of soft, white sandy beach. For 90 years, Gurney's has been an iconic summertime destination in Montauk, in part because it is easily reached by automobile, jitney, train, private plane and boat.
In 2014, new owners invested in a multi-year, multi-phase and multi-million-dollar head-to-toe redo of the sprawling complex. Designer Michael Kramer enhanced the function and design of public spaces and a wing of rooms. He introduced a contemporary beachy vibe — using earth tones, reclaimed woods, white custom-built sofas and one-of-a-kind pieces — to make you feel as if you have your own spacious, airy and comfortably-casual beach house. Other facets of the revamp included the addition of 38 new Ocean Front rooms, the renovation to 42 Ocean View rooms, a redesign of the Beach Club, the debut of the hotel's ocean-fed swimming pool, and the opening of five new food and beverage venues.
The Rooms
Enjoy limitless views of the Atlantic and the sound of waves lapping the shore no matter where you stay in the Montauk hotel, whether in the seaside cottages flanked by beach grass and fronted with decks, the Ocean Front rooms in the Forward Watch Building or the Ocean View rooms in the Chart House, Flying Bridge, Promenade and Forecastle buildings.
The Ocean Front rooms feature a cool, contemporary beach style with whitewashed walls, multi-toned custom wood furnishings, wood floors and neutral linens. Each is furnished with either a king-size bed and sofa or two queen beds and opens to a beachfront terrace through sliding glass doors.
In-room TVs include options for guided meditation and workout programs. A kitchenette-sized area stores the mini-bar, safe and closet and the bathroom features non-slip composite flooring, faux wood-plank wall tiles and an oversized shower clad with subway tiles. Room amenities include hypoallergenic pillows, microfiber robes with terry linings and slippers, plus custom-blended Gilchrist & Soames bathroom products.
The Spa
In the 32,000-square-foot The Seawater Spa, the newly reconstructed Olympic-size indoor seawater pool attracts guests for aquatics classes and offers amazing ocean views from its wall of windows. The entire spa facility — lobby, boutique, locker rooms, 40 treatment rooms, salon, high-tech oceanfront fitness center and a couple's lounge — is exemplary of the top-of-class amenties you can expect from the resort.
Because Gurney's Seawater Spa pumps and heats ocean water for use in the pool, baths, hydrotherapy tubs and therapeutic treatments, it qualifies as the one true Thalasso center in the United States.
It also features Roman baths, Finnish rock saunas, Russian steam rooms and Swiss showers. The spa offers a full range of fitness options from yoga, Pilates, CrossFit and cardio sessions to pop-up fitness events and yoga on the beach. A partnership with Wellthily targets health aficionados by offering weekend retreats featuring healthy menus and the expertise of health, nutrition and fitness gurus.
As an added beauty bonus, guests can visit The Hairspace Salon, helmed by celebrity stylist Ric Pipino and Gil Haziza, for day-to-day hair maintenance or for added pizazz for special occasions.
The Food
In 2015, the Hamptons hotel inaugurated five food and beverage outlets managed in partnership with LDV Hospitality, notable for chef Scott Conant's award-winning Scarpetta restaurants. Scarpetta Beach, the resort's signature dining venue, incorporates local and seasonal ingredients in its sophisticated Italian cuisine. The menu is served in an expansive, oceanfront space with a subtle nautical theme. Navy banquettes face the view under a unique, custom-crafted macramé wall divider, made of sailing rope.
Corso Coffee, at a corner counter in the lobby, offers housemade croissants, pastries and light fare in a great room setting complete with a captain's table where guests mingle. Tillie's is a casual all day café where booths view the ocean. The Beach Club offers daily beach barbecues (depending on the season), and a newly opened late-night Regent Cocktail Club attracts young weekenders who have recently "discovered" Montauk nightlife.
The Extras
On the beach, hundreds of beach chairs, daybeds and umbrellas await. Active types beach walk, hike the Walking Dunes, mountain bike on hillsides and ride and golf seasonally. In summer, activities range from kayaking or surfing to sailing or deep-sea fishing.
Many guests are lured to the community's oceanfront state parks, including the famous Montauk Lighthouse. Most spend a few hours driving around to get feel for its marinas, clam shacks or seafood restaurants, the village boutiques and, especially, the scenic natural beauty of Montauk.

Among the darkest corners of Kentucky's past are the grisly feuds that tore apart the hills of Eastern Kentucky from the late 19th century until well into the 20th. Now, from the tangled threads of conflicting testimony, John Ed Pearce, Kentucky's best-known journalist, weaves engrossing accounts of six of the most notorious accounts to uncover what really happened and why. His story of those days of darkness brings to light new evidence, questions commonly held beliefs about the feuds, including long-running feuds - those in Breathitt, Clay Harlan, Perry, Pike, and Rowan Counties.
What caused the feuds that left Kentucky with its lingering reputation for violence? Who were the feudists, and what forces - social, political, financial - hurled them at each other? Did Big Jim Howard really kill Governor William Goebel? Did Joe Eversole die trying to protect small mountain landowners from ruthless Eastern mineral exploiters? Did the Hatfield-McCoy fight start over a hog? For years Pearce has interviewed descendants of feuding families and examined skimpy court records and often fictional newspaper articles. Now he puts to rest some of the more popular legends.
The book is published by University Press of Kentucky.
"If you are pursuing interesting stories of Kentucky's past; if you are seeking an entertaining mythology; if you find the evolution of oral history fascinating or are just curious about feuds in Eastern Kentucky, then read John Ed Pearce's Days of Darkness." (Lexington Herald-Leader)
"Pearce untangles the loose threads of conflicting testimony to present the reader with the real truth on six of the bloodiest and longest-running feuds in the history of Kentucky." (Lone Star Book Review)

This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Nasus Build
Purchase Order
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
This is a build for nasus that is about solo laning top and farming the hole time. If you really want to be op with Nasus you haft to farm very mutch to make your Q hit for like the half health . if theres to many at your lane and it's becoming hard to farm allways go backdoor on mid or bot. Hope you have fun and dont forget to vote this build up. :D
so the runes are focusing on ability colldows and armor penetraition. if you want to change something i think that the seals are the one's the change but i think there are no better in seal exept mana reg seals they are ok to cuz he really needs it to have but dont change marks or Glyphs or Quintessence.
the masteries are kinda good there are going for a little bit of all but i where thinking of having 21-9-0 but nasus really needs that and as i said if u want more mana reg switch seals then.
the items are going for a littel bit of defense but mutch damage but still you cant go full dps with nasus that will come back to you later on and it's not to good.
Skill Sequence
spells so your Q you want to max fast but your E is good is early farming and scaring away enemies wither is just good to have for kill or runing away you dont need to max soon.
Summoner Spells
teleport does help you alot when your soloing and saving your towers in later game flash well it's just good to have.
Pros / Cons
he is good in laning 1v1 but you dont really want to go right on him/her stay back with the minions and farm but if they attack you do: wither cast spirit fire on him/her and Q then walk back or if he has low health kill him.
Creeping / Jungling
if you have trouble farming on your lane you can go to another lane or you can jungel then go after: blue,red and wraiths when you have taken them go back to lane or you can take wolfs but remember that you get more minion kills on lane thats why you buy philosipher stone so you can take some hits
what you do is do your E on the minions and wait for one to get low the you do a basic then Q then do that on everyone of them if a minion is about to die and your Q is on colldown you should kill it but normaly dont hit them so you can get your Q up before it dies but with buying colldown boots soo early you can buy it even earlyer if u want and with runes and masteries.

Author: Student Blogger, Ibadat Javed
The weekend before our homeschool/tennis group started again, I played a major zone tournament in College Station. I was especially nervous since I hadn't done well at the tournament the weekend before. However, I'd had a pretty successful summer, losing only 7 of the 29 matches I'd played. My motto of the summer had become: "The first three matches are road kill; the semi-finals is where it starts." (tactful, I know…)
Although tournament weekends can be pretty stressful, my dad (who travels with me to most tournaments) and I tried to relax during any break I got between matches. I checked out the A&M Football Stadium which was so huge that it was overwhelming. We also made a quick sunscreen stop at Wal-Mart which was stocked with "college essentials" such as gigantic boxes of cereal, toothpaste, and granola bars. I think I stood there for nearly five minutes, imagining how awesome college must be, what with all those granola bars… Although I was stressed out in the morning, after winning my first two matches and reaching the semi-finals, I became more relaxed. A friend, also in the tournament, invited me out for Mexican food and, to this day, I still joke that the most challenging part of the weekend was not ordering the huge plate of nachos with extra sour cream. But trust me on this, unless you know it works for you, Mexican food is not the best thing to eat the night before a tournament. We discussed our matches and talked about what we did well and what we could have done better.
Tip: During tournaments, it's good to unwind at night and talk to a friend in order to calm your nerves before a big match.
At about 8 pm, I had a sudden realization that I was out of clothes and frantically explained the situation to my dad, who was deeply invested in a movie on HBO. We made a last minute visit to the laundromat and sweet potato fries trip to Harvey Washbangers (check it out if you're in College Station – their food looked amazing, the sweet potato fries were great, and they play good music all the time). I was asleep by 9:15 pm.
On Sunday morning, I began my semi-finals match against a girl who I had beaten once before. I had beaten her sister three times so it's safe to say that I wasn't a family favorite. Her parents were riled up and I was nervous. My coach gave me a lengthy pep talk over the phone during which I said maybe two words at the most. I was up 5-4 in the match and it started raining. Scratch that, it was pouring. The ref told us that there was no chance we would play in less than an hour so my dad and I headed back to the hotel. An hour turned into two, which turned into three…in between Gilmore Girls episodes, I would head down to the gym and run for a few minutes on the treadmill to keep my body warm.
Tip: Between matches, keep your body warm by jogging on the treadmill or doing the bike.
At 11 am, my friend and I were extremely bored and he decided to go Pokémon hunting. I followed him out into the rain and we spent nearly 20 minutes walking up and down the sidewalks hunting for the latest Pokémon. At noon, we headed back to our sites, and to my relief and dread at the same time, the courts were dry. My match was called and I headed back to the court to finish the match. I ended up winning 7-5, 6-1. I was so unbelievably happy since I had never reached a final in a major zone tournament before.
My opponents were still on court, battling, and I had a few hours before the finals. My dad and I headed to Starbucks where I had a bowl of fruit and a chocolate chip muffin. Not the healthiest thing in the world, I know… For me, eating only a little between matches works well, though. My opponents ended up playing a 3 ½ hour match and my finals match was scheduled for 4 pm, with a 60% chance of rain. I was trying to stay optimistic and told the tournament desk: "Well, there's a 40% chance it won't rain." We were the last match of the tournament and it started raining the second we got on court. We tried waiting out the storm but it was getting dark and they had to rain out the tournament. Despite not being able to finish the tournament, I take pride in the fact that I was up 30-15 in the first game of the match, though.
About our Student Blogger
Hello, my name is Ibadat and I have been a student at Laurel Springs School for five years. I am currently a sophomore. I play full-time tennis and in my free time, I enjoy reading (anything from books to the back of juice boxes), writing (especially poetry), binging on Gilmore Girl reruns, and eating pizza as often as I possibly can. My favorite book at the moment is Catcher in the Rye and I am currently trying to find my way through Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina. My favorite subject is Literature (for obvious reasons) and I want to major in Creative Writing in college.

Hi I have bought 4 of these Tee shirts. No not the same design. They are well made and are comfortable to wear. I have broad shoulders and bought XXL which fit very well. If you have ever grabbed a Tee from ASDA or TESCOs go with the normal size you would buy from them. The necks are not tight so you can actually breath. I have washed all 4 Tees a couple of times and I am guilty of using a tumble dryer with no shrinkage, no misshapening and no damage to the prints. Buy these Geek Tees at this bargain price.

How to Make It in (The New) America
(Page 3 of 3)
As part of his first official duties as the company's head of marketing and strategic management, Feagin asked Yeoman to come up with a piece that showed his unique style. Feagin had a bright, sunny image of Detroit's cityscape in mind, something that a young professional, for instance, might want to use on a business card.
Instead, Yeoman came up with a dystopian image of a man walking on railroad tracks leading into the city, which looms as if it was just the target of the first bombing attack of World War III.
"I hated it," Feagin says. "But that's when I learned that I'm not an art critic, and that's not my role."
Feagin reluctantly posted the drawing on Facebook. Twenty-four hours later, he got a call from a collector in Dubai who not only bought that piece, but two more.
"I didn't know anything about art, but I knew people could really be into this," Feagin says. When, several months later, a collector paid $2,000 for a decade-old sketch that's a rendition of the Packard Plant, Feagin knew they were in business. A year later, they've gone on to sell $40,000 worth of BeloZro's art, a small miracle considering the economy, the city they live in, and the fact that neither has a traditional background in the arts.
"Now," Feagin says, "I'm focused on building the brand, and I'm doing that by selling prints, t-shirts, iPad skins … but I'm also doing it tastefully. I respect the fact that it's art, and I'm not going to put him in a place he doesn't feel comfortable. Though we're going outside of the gallery system, I'm also keeping the established art community aware of us. But any one decision from an art gallery doesn't matter as long as I'm willing to hustle t-shirts."
BeloZro Visual Energy's latest project is a sequel to the "Detroit against the world" painting that Chrysler passed on, only this time they want to put the image on a billboard in the middle of the city by using the crowdfunding website Loudsauce.com to buy the ad space. They've even enlisted the help of Loveland.com founder Jerry Paffendorf, who used a similar crowdsourcing model with much fanfare to raise $67,000 to build a Robocop statue in Detroit. As of press time, they've raised $2,106 of the $3,500 needed to purchase space on the billboard, and expect the project to be fully funded by the Oct. 27 deadline.
"The theme of the painting is a time for change," Yeoman says. "America has its back against the ropes economically, but here's a public image of the Big Three standing together. I've hijacked [company] logos to change people's thinking about the auto industry."
Yeoman hopes the public—and the Big Three—will see the billboard the way he intends: as a symbol of economic recovery and community solidarity. The fact that Yeoman is returning to the same material seems to prove that even in the leaner, greener age of the domestic auto industry, its role in Detroit's economic health can't be overstated.
After all, without the profound effect Chrysler's bankruptcy had on both men, their startup company would never have existed in the first place.
Feagin says the crowdfunded billboard is just one piece of a year-long business plan that culminates with a "blowout party" next summer in the lobby of the urban monolith otherwise known as the long-abandoned Michigan Central Station. He wants to attract a crowd of attendees that includes everyone from "the hipsters and the homies, to pimps and players, to young professionals."
Although just thinking of the permits, security, and clean-up needed for such a massive shindig might make those made of lesser stuff feel faint, Feagin has no reason to think, after everything he and Yeoman have achieved together so far, that this goal won't also become reality.
"I feel like our story could give [the HBO series] 'How to Make It in America' a run for its money," Feagin says. "There's a hustle you get in your blood when you're from Detroit. I love having that in me. When we started, I asked [Yeoman], do you really want this? Because a lot of people have good ideas, but they don't really want to make it."

The original Velvia (RVP) was an ISO 50 film. In practice, many photographers used an exposure index (EI) of 40 or 32 to over-expose it slightly (one or two thirds of a stop respectively) in order to yield less saturated colors and more shadow detail. It was discontinued in 2005.
Velvia 50 (RVP50) was reintroduced, on the new film base, in 2007 after announcements under the provisional name Velvia II in 2006. The original Velvia (RVP) had been discontinued because of difficulties in obtaining some of the raw materials needed to make the emulsion. Fuji R&D created a new emulsion which substituted different materials in its manufacture yet retained the appearance of the classic Velvia.
Velvia has very saturated colors under daylight, high contrast, and exceptional sharpness. These characteristics make it the slide film of choice for many nature photographers.

Vintage clothing stores are all about overstimulation: HATS BUTTONS BAUBLES JACKETS everywhere. This annual shoe-in for secondhand duds does it right: the stuff is organized in a way that makes sense, and The Doors always seem to be playing in the background. While we can't guarantee you'll find those cowboy boots, ripped 501 jeans or three-wolf-moon shirt in your perfect size, looking is half the fun, right? And you didn't know you needed that bowling shirt that was once worn by "Clem" until you laid your hungry eyes upon it.

The Screen Illusion Trailer (2010)
10 December 2010 Comedy 80 mins
In this contemporary adaptation of Pierre Corneille's brilliant, eponymous 17th century play, the enigmatic Alcandre is now a hotel concierge who uses the myriad in-house high-tech security cameras to show worried father Pridamant the whereabouts and travails of his son, Clindor. As Pridamant witnesses the conflicting romances involving his estranged son, Corneille's modernist meta-narrative is transposed to contemporary Paris, underscoring the ambiguous nature of love, wealth and desire in an age of consumerism. (Chicago International Film Festival)

DoctorD, Crisco is not nearly as strong of a candidate as Aiken. Anyone who watched the primary debate could tell you that.
Do you have a discussion on your website as to why you picked Clay Aiken over Keith Crisco for the Democratic nomination for U.S. House District 2? Also why you picked Renee Elmers over "abstain" on the Republican side?
Robert - thank you for pointing out the typo. I have corrected it. Happy voting!
Thanks, SouthernMama. We too wish we could publish endorsements for every Wake municipality. However, we simply don't have the staff, resources or expertise to cover every race.
However, (as you noticed) Bob Geary wrote about the Apex Town Council race this week: http://www.indyweek.com/indyweek/two-women…
I think it would be helpful for the Indy to publish, at least online, voter guides for the many municipalities in Wake County. The folks who live outside of Cary and Raleigh make up more of the population of Wake than those who live inside C and R. Whom does the Indy endorse for the following municipalities?
Apex: three moderate/progressive candidates running
Fuquay-Varina: four moderate/progressives running
Garner: one moderate/progressive running
Holly Springs: two moderate/progressives running
Knightdale: three moderate/progressives running
Morrisville: six moderate/progressives running
Rolesville: one moderate/progressive running
Wake: two moderate/progressives running
Zebulon: four moderate/progressives running
First of all, I want to congratulate the incumbents on their endorsements. All three have impressive records on the Board and are well known in the community. As a challenger, I expect to be at a disadvantage. It is true that I have not had the opportunity to participate in various task forces and committees and enact policies that come as a result of being an elected official. While I appreciate the acknowledgment of my "charms", I do in fact stand for substantial issues facing our town.
There is a serious employment and housing inequality crisis in Carrboro that has progressively worsened to the point where there are few permanent residents between the ages of 22 and 30. We cannot offer them any employment opportunities or affordable housing, and as a recent graduate/stay-at-home father in a one-income family, I understand this struggle. Despite being hailed as a walkable and bikable town, the majority of our children still arrive to school by car or bus when it would be more convenient, and encourage active lifestyles, to walk or bike.
I would like to encourage citizens to visit my website, www.kurtstolka.com and learn more about my views, see my responses during live forums and to various questionnaires, and learn more about me as a serious and dedicated candidate for Carrboro Board of Alderman.
"Amusing. With one exception, this was essentially the Democratic party ticket, including judicial and bond issues. Can you explain what value you provide to voters above just going to the Dem party website?"
Really good questions. Unfortunately, I haven't taken the time to research every candidate for every race (Ag anyone?) and based on the Independent's history of social justice and shared responsibility I am willing to take their word on on the less sexy races, and it just so happens that the democrats appear to be fielding candidates who seem more appealing than the republicans. I'd love to see more independent candidates but we have to make do with what we have in elections, anyone want to run my campaign?
Besides, republicans in general wanted to pass the constitutional amendment banning marriage equality and I wouldn't want to vote for anyone who spent millions adding a constitutional amendment against something that was already illegal in NC and did little but sully our national reputation.
In all disclosure - I'm in the wedding Industry and would have loved the extra work, instead people are traveling to f*cking New Hampshire. New Hampshire!!!
- Jason Huggins
What happened to the discussion of Cherie Berry and link to an alternate view* of her?
* http://aflcionc.org/nc-labor-commissioner-…
ummmmmmm.........how about the one exception?
I certainly trust the Independent more than the Democratic party when it comes to politics.
Amusing. With one exception, this was essentially the Democratic party ticket, including judicial and bond issues. Can you explain what value you provide to voters above just going to the Dem party website?
Just a data point: I almost lost my vote last year because I had my phone out in the booth. The lady finally relented, though.
Hi Sarah et al.,
The print function has been repaired and you should have no further problems with printing our voting guide or endorsement pages. Please let me know if you do. Thanks!
Hi Sarah,
I apologize for the inconvenience. It appears our print function is broken across the board. We are working diligently to repair it. I will comment again here when things are functioning properly. In the meantime, please know that our voting guide displays beautifully on a smartphone so you can take it with you!
Sarah, thanks for letting us know. We're working on the problem.
Print button is not working
I'm really surprised that you guys didn't really say much of anything about John Owens. He's young but he's the only one with a completely new perspective, and he knows both the budget and the issues better than any of the other candidates, including long-time incumbents. He's displayed this at numerous opportunities. Shame on you Indy!
Plus, he has hilarious video ads:
As an unaffiliated voter is my vote more important in choosing Democrat or Republican candidates?
Today is the beginning of early voting and Over the past thirty years, I have served the people of North Carolina as a soldier and served in Iraq. I also volunteered and went to New Orleans in support of Katrina. I have had a number of jobs in state government, but only one career – public service.
With that core value at heart, I am running for the Democratic House District 39 so that I c...an continue advocating on behalf of the public interest, continue fighting for change, and continue making North Carolina a better state.
As your state representative, I will help strengthen our public schools by recruiting and retaining the best teachers possible, expanding access to quality pre-Kindergarten programs, and addressing the achievement gap. I will expand access to affordable health care to ensure that all children and seniors have health insurance. I will also work with the rest of the Wake County delegation to deal with the challenges resulting from Wake County's explosive growth by improving our public transportation system and tackling our water shortages and create economic opportunities to protect people from exploitation by powerful interests.
I want you to know how passionate I am about the issues that matter to North Carolinians. And I will get up every morning and work as hard as I did to win this race and take that passion to the floor of the North Carolina House of Representative.
But I've learned that winning depends on more than just hard work: It depends on people like you. I respectfully ask for your support and would be honored to partner with you on the issues we care about. More important than winning, however, is governing. I want to be your Representative in the North Carolina House and one that you will be proud to have helped elect.
I hope I can count on you to join me in this campaign for change. And if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (919)247-5152. Thank you for your consideration.
Don Mial
If you're voting the Indy Endorsement on County Commissioner, you should really check out John Owens for your fifth vote. John is easily the most progressive candidate, he's running the strongest challenger campaign, and he represents an important shift away from the status quo.
The website is chock full of policy ideas and issue commentary, check it out: www.TeamOwens.com
The Duke Democrats endorsed John saying:
"We believe John Owens is the single strongest candidate; among the fourteen candidates, we appreciate that at forums and in questionnaires, he is rarely evasive, and speaks directly and honestly without obfuscating his beliefs or his intentions. This quality is uncommon in any politician—and is sorely needed given the lack of transparency in Durham government. Some participants in Durham politics accuse Durham's "progressive left" of being out-of-touch with the needs of low-income Durham residents—Owens' life-story and background speak directly to his understanding of the role in government in helping to support citizens in their pathway out of poverty."
Rev Carl Kenney (who also used to write for the Indy) enthusiastically endorsed John on his popular blog, the Rev-Elution.
He wrote:
This kid has the stuff. I call him kid out of respect for what he brings, youthfulness, a fresh approach, an amazing understanding of the issues and a departure from business as usual in Durham [...]
Those in office may be a bit out of touch, and we need some new blood running the show. [...] The Rev-elution can see past the birth certificate. He's among the best "
We posted this on the other thread, but it bears repeating:
Please use your fifth vote for John Owens... and vote AGAINST Amendment 1!

Lawn Mower Selection Tips
The lawn mower manufacturers keep on increasing. Some of the largest companies in the US and elsewhere create all types of mowers. Any form of discovered lawn mower design is in their product lines. So it is rather obvious that the prospective customer could get confused when trying to choose a great product for commercial or residential mowing work. Since there are so many products to choose from, each offering unique pros and cons, caution is needed when trying to purchase a good mower.
Like some misguided shoppers, you possibly believe that any costly mower is great. While the saying that "cheap is expensive" may is still be sensible, you cannot so sure that the most expensive lawn mower is the most durable and functional. There are cheaper mowers that do the job perfectly. Further, some shoppers think that the bigger the mower the more effective it is.
Again this is not the case. You might come across a small mower that mows any grass species regardless of the height. In short, it pays to take the time to compare what is best for your yard in terms price, features, size of the yard and other factors. Here are your options:
Reel Lawn mower
Alternatively called the push, cylinder or manual lawn mower, the reel mower is the most classic model you can buy. It comes fully equipped with vertical wheels although this depends on the brand you come across. The main thing is the cutting deck and how it is attached to the body. Some reel mowers are more practical than modern machines that use electricity or gas. Further, these items are cheap, quiet, easy to maintain and safe in homes with little kids that easily get involved in mower accidents. Modern reel mowers do not require a lot of physical strength to push.
Electric Lawn mowers
There are a number of top quality and effective electric lawn mowers we have tested and loved. These are mowers that run by the power of electricity. Some models are corded, meaning that they run after being plugged into a power outlet. The other types are cordless and so they use rechargeable batteries.
Electricity is the cleanest fuel, making these sorts of mowers the best when it comes to the protection of the environment. Most electric mowers operate quietly too, and start with a single push of a button. Additionally, these machines are easy to operate, less expensive to buy and easier to maintain than their gas-operated counterparts.
Rotary Mowers – Push or self-propelled
This kind of lawn mower is run with gas, electricity or petrol. In short, rotary mowers are mostly motorized now. While there are so many options to choose from, the best rotary mowers are designed to cut all types of grass and weeds, including the toughest ones. One thing that makes them less desirable is their bulkiness, making them harder to push unless they have the Self propeller technology.
Riding Mowers
Walk-behind mowers are fine when your lawn is small. People who have two yards or one big yard would get so tired if they decided to use the walk-behind mower. Their best pick would be the riding mower. This mower is more sophisticated, featuring a seat for the user and the components that will enable the user to manoeuvre and mow. These are expensive mowers.
Tractor mowers
They look like normal tractors for farming only that they are tinier. The cutting deck for the tractor mower is usually situated between the front and rear wheel axes. These are even more expensive than riding lawn mowers. Depending on brand, tractor mowers can have a very sophisticated craftsmanship.
Hover, Robotic and zero-turn mowers
Hover lawn mowers commonly use a rotary blade yet they lack wheels. Without wheels, one may wonder how they operate. It is easy; they float in the air. There is a tire to offer cushioning though, and may be best for hilly yards. Zero-turn machines are best purchased for a yard that is full of obstructions as they don't need a turning radius.
To afford these you need to save a relatively large chunk of money. Robotic mowers, as the name suggests, are automatic mowers. They may be run by a solar engine or durable battery. Robotic mowers are just like reels in that they keep the surroundings clean.
When you go shopping for the best lawn mower, make use of the tips we have shared above. Note also that each category of mowers has so many options that need to be explored before any purchase is done.
