Messi's dedication is what you need for greatness, Wayne
By Neil Ashton
Two years ago, Wayne Rooney was a good World Cup away from being named the best player on the planet.
Rooney was the man, scoring 34 goals for Manchester United and had been named PFA player of the year just weeks before the tournament.
He had it all, but his depressing performances at the tournament in South Africa took the sheen away from the England striker.
By the time the nominations for the Ballon d'Or were cast, Rooney was an also-ran, an after-thought for the game's experts.
Tough times: Wayne Rooney has often cut a frustrated figure

Lionel Messi won it for the first time in December 2010 (in 2009, he took the last ever World Football of the Year award) beating his Barcelona's club-mates Andres Iniesta and Xavi to the coveted trophy.
A year later, Messi was named the best player in the world for a second time and he is expected to make it a hat-trick of titles later this year.
After scoring a 82 goals last season for club and country, Messi deserves to be in a category all of his own.
Messi scored a record 14 goals in the Champions League last season, five of them against Bayer Leverkusen before they were eventually beaten by Chelsea in the semi-final.
He has dedicated his life and his career to his chosen sport, standing out from the crowd with his classy performances in red and blue of Barca. His desire remains undiminished, carrying the baton for club and country again this season.
He barely had time for a close season break after his hat-trick for Argentina against Brazil in America on June 9.
There were goals in Barcelona's tune-up games against Raja Casablanca, Paris St Germain and Dinamo Bucharest before the real action got underway.
Top of his game: Lionel Messi has retained a real hunger for the game
He opened his account for the season with a goal in Argentina's impressive victory over Germany in a friendly in Frankfurt.
The Barca striker scored twice on the opening day of La Liga season in Barcelona's demolition of Real Sociedad at the Nou Camp.
He added another against Real Madrid in the Super Cup and then scored two decisive goals in the victory in Pamplona against Osasuna.
Messi is on it, aware that he is the centre of attention after a mesmerising season playing for Barcelona.
Scoring goals is his life's work, committing himself to his career and seemingly oblivious to the temptations that come the way of every professional footballer.
He has the desire to remain at the top, something that has been absent from Rooney's game since he moved to Old Trafford for £26.5million in 2004.
Rooney returned from that depressing 2010 World Cup to be confronted by lurid allegations about his private life.
He was later photographed urinating in a street and smoking a cigarette during the close season break.
Sublime: Cristiano Ronaldo remains one of the world's best players at Real Madrid
That image is not becoming of a player who wants to reach for the stars and take his place among the greats of the global game.
In Rooney's mitigation, he remains an exceptional player, capable of turning matches for Manchester United.
After the disappointment of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, he recovered to score 11 times in the Premier League and help take the team to the Champions League final.
Last season he scored 27 goal in the top flight, only three short of Robin van Persie's exceptional return for Arsenal.
Those kind of statistics confirm that Rooney remains a top-class player, but it is still sad that he has not been able to break into the top bracket of the game.
Those elite spots are occupied by Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Xavi and Iniesta, continuing to churn out the performances despite winning all the individual accolades that the game has to offer.
At 26, Rooney remains a cornerstone of the United team, a crucial member of a side beaten to the Premier League title last season on goal difference.
Time to change: Rooney is young enough to alter his path
His injury is unfortunate, keeping him out of some crucial Barclays Premier League games and England's World Cup qualifiers against Moldova and Ukraine next month.
Of more concern is the decision by Sir Alex Ferguson to drop him from the Manchester United team to face Fulham at Old Trafford.
Although rotation is a regular occurrence at the top level, dropping Messi is almost unthinkable for a La Liga game.
He plays week in week out because he wants to, demanding a starting role even when Barcelona are likely to roll over the opposition.
After Frank Rijkaard walked away from the Catalans in 2008, Pep Guardiola put his total faith and trust in the little maestro.
He is closing in on Cesar Rodriguez's all-time record number of goals for Barcelona in La Liga. Rodriguez scored 192, Messi has 173.
It is only a matter of time before Messi races clear of that target, but there will be no time to reflect on those records during his career. In time he will be able to look back on his career and accept that he made the most of his unique talent.
Sadly, Rooney will not be able to say the same.

"The most absurd apology for authority and law is that they serve to diminish crime. Aside from the fact that the State is itself the greatest criminal, breaking every written and natural law, stealing in the form of taxes, killing in the form of war and capital punishment, it has come to an absolute standstill in coping with crime. It has failed utterly to destroy or even minimize the horrible scourge of its own creation." ~ Emma Goldman

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A blown-out natural gas well blazing off Louisiana's coast poses fewer environmental dangers than past offshore accidents because it appears to primarily involve gas that disperses relatively easily, scientists said Wednesday.
"A gas well's not going to result in any kind of major pollution — perhaps not even significant pollution if it's burning," said Ted Bourgoyne, the former chair of Louisiana State University's petroleum engineering department. He now runs the consultancy Bourgoyne Enterprises Inc.
Federal inspectors said a light sheen was spotted around the rig on Wednesday evening, though authorities said it quickly dissipated and the fire aboard the rig continued to be fed by natural gas. A sheen was spotted shortly after the blowout began on Tuesday but it, too, quickly dissipated.
Gas wells often also have oil or other hydrocarbons as well as natural gas. Officials and scientists agree the latest mishap shouldn't be nearly as damaging as the BP oil spill that famously sent crude oil oozing ashore in 2010.
The fire broke out late Tuesday hours after the blowout, authorities said. Forty-four workers were evacuated from a drilling rig at the site, and no injuries were reported.
By Wednesday evening, the derrick and drill floor structure had collapsed. A fireboat was pumping water on the rig in an effort to keep as much of it as cool as possible.
University of Georgia marine scientist Samantha "Mandy" Joye also said the pollution and health dangers posed by a gas well are quite different than those posed at the well where the Deepwater Horizon rig blew up in 2010, killing 11 people and spewing millions of gallons of oil for weeks.
"The biggest danger from gas is that it is extremely flammable. At high concentration, gas exposure can cause health issues (vomiting, headaches, and worse) but such high levels are not likely to be reached in warm, shallow waters," Joye said in an email response to questions.
That's not to say there were no dangers. The Coast Guard maintained traffic restrictions within 500 meters of the site and the Federal Aviation Administration restricted aircraft up to 2,000 feet over the area.
Tuesday's blowout occurred at a drilling rig adjacent to a natural gas platform that wasn't producing gas at the time about 55 miles south of the coast. The rig was completing a "sidetrack well," which drills into the same well hole under the platform. Industry experts say such wells are used to remedy an obstruction or other problem with the original bore, or to access a different part of the gas reserve.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"These magnets were great! Everyone loves them. The quality is good. My only complaint is that the photo printed with a red tint to it. I compared it to the original photo I have and our skin is nore natural colored. On the magnets it's much redder. I don't think that the people who received them would even notice that so I'm satisfied with it."
"I ordered these as magnets for our save the dates. The quality is outstanding. The purple band is slightly darker than the image on the computer, but it works well with the colors we choose for our wedding. We didn't have professional pictures done, my brother snapped them for us and the picture we used came out very crisp and clean on the magnets. They are about the height of my iphone, only the width is fatter. The delivery was super fast! Everyone who has recieved our save the date has called or texted to say how much they loved them and how beautiful they turned out."
"The customization I requested was done easily. I had chosen the 'charcoal' version of "Built for Two". I replaced everything that was yellow on the card with the aqua color that the card also came in, 'paradise', because our wedding colors are pewter and aqua. It was also easy to add a line at the very bottom which was our wedding website. The paper seems great quality, the images are crisp and we're very pleased. I have not sent them out yet, but my guess is they will be well-received."
"I absolutely love the design of this save the date. My fiance and I love to ride bikes and this simple design allowed us to incorporate our love for cycling on our save the dates. I also got thank you cards to match."
"We picked the save the date because it worked best with the pictures we were wanting to use. I was a little worried how bright the picture and color strip would turn out. But, they turned out AMAZING!! perfect coloring and picture turned out great! This company did a great job! The product was done so quickly as well! I got them so fast delivered to my home. Very happy customer!"

Fashion Fraud! The Bernie Madoff iPad Case
Posted: August 17th, 2011 | Author: Marcus Dangerfield | Filed under: mcsixtyfive | Tags: Bernie Madoff, Blip, Blipvert, Faux, Frederick James, Frederick James iPad Cover, iPad, John Vaccaro, Kiss My, Marcus Dangerfield, Not Porn, Ponzi, Technoid Computer News | Comments OffHe's had his nifty little fingers in some pretty deep pockets. Bernie Madoff is presently shirtless but apparently not pantless. In case you live under a rock: In March 2009, Madoff pleaded guilty to 11 federal felonies and admitted to turning his wealth management business into a massive Ponzi scheme that defrauded thousands of investors of billions of dollars. Madoff said he began the Ponzi scheme in the early 1990s. However, federal investigators believe the fraud began as early as the 1970s.
Madoff was jailed for 150 years. Seems his crimes are being recapitulated in his absence. Accessory designer Frederick James is churning out iPad covers made from Madoffs discarded slacks> James describes his iPad covers as – little ironic – Non Protective, "The Frederick James iPad covers are NOT intended to be protective! When carrying your iPad in a Frederick James cover by itself, handle it just as you would handle the iPad if it was not in a cover. If you drop it and it breaks, Frederick James is NOT responsible.
Frederick James recommend their covers to protect only from light dust and debris. ALWAYS transport your iPad in another bag." Sound a bit like a Ponzi for a Pad? :: Read the full article »»»»

OPINION: In recent times New Zealand have been something of a third wheel in women's international cricket.
A bit like the single friend who is invited out to dinner with a loved-up couple - they're present, there are efforts to make them feel included, but in the end the couple only have eyes for each other and the friend ends up leaving early.
That's been the White Ferns' story when it comes to major tournaments during the past five years.
England and Australia, without question the most consistent teams in women's world cricket, have claimed all the spoils between them, with England winning the last 50-over World Cup, in 2009, as well as the inaugural Twenty20 World Cup in the same year.
Australia won the previous 50-over World Cup, in 2005, and have won the last two T20 World Cups, in 2010 and 2012.
New Zealand? Well, their sole triumph on the big stage was now 13 years ago, at the one-day World Cup in 2000, on home soil.
They've become accustomed to the bridesmaid tag, though, having lost three World Cup finals (one 50-over and two T20s) in the space of two years in 2009 and 2010.
They were ousted in the semifinals of the most recent World Cup, last year's T20 version.
You guessed it, Australia and England faced each other in the decider.
A 3-1 loss to Australia in the Rose Bowl one-day series before Christmas suggested more of the same could be on the cards at this year's 50-over World Cup, which starts for the Kiwis with a group B opener against South Africa in Mumbai on Friday night.
But there is genuine belief among the New Zealand team, belief that would now appear to be justified to those on the outside after they toppled Australia 2-1 in a Twenty20 international series in Melbourne this week.
"It's huge. I don't think you can underestimate the value, in the changing room, of winning games," New Zealand captain Suzie Bates said of the first series win on Australian soil in 26 years.
"Regardless of the format, it's great to have wins under your belt and we've just got to go and carry on what we've been doing in India. It's just nice to have this momentum going into the World Cup, and this winning feeling."
Even before their success this week, Ferns coach Katrina Keenan, a member of the World Cup-winning team of 2000, was in little doubt New Zealand had the players to win a World Cup.
"There's very little separating the top teams at this level, so it's very much going to be about sticking to our game plan and our strengths and how people cope with the pressure. We believe we can compete and win at the World Cup," Keenan said.
"In the past we've shown that we can do that at various stages of the game but we require complete performances, it's definitely something we are working on."
Runs from the experienced Bates and left-hander Amy Satterthwaite at the top of the order will be vital, as will Sophie Devine's hitting power in the middle order. There are few better strikers in the world.
As well, allrounder Nicola Browne, who also has few problems finding the boundary, looms as influential.
The slower bowlers are expected to be prominent in India, and New Zealand have a few handy ones, most notably Morna Nielsen who bowled exceptionally well in Australia this week.
The Ferns have two warmup matches - against Sri Lanka on Monday and England on Wednesday - before their tournament opener against South Africa. They will also face Pakistan and Australia in group B. Group A is headed by defending champions England and includes India, the West Indies and Sri Lanka.
v Sri Lanka, Mumbai, Monday v England, Mumbai, Wednesday GROUP B MATCHES v South Africa, Mumbai, Friday 10pm v Pakistan, Mumbai, Feb 3, 4.30pm v Australia, Mumbai, Feb 5, 4.30pm WORLD CUP WINNERS (runners-up in bracket) 1973 England (Australia) 1978 Australia (England) 1982 Australia (England) 1988 Australia (England) 1993 England (New Zealand) 1997 Australia (New Zealand) 2000 New Zealand (Australia) 2005 Australia (India) 2009 England (New Zealand)

"Hellboy" actor Ron Perlman and special effects studio Spectral Motion teamed up with the Make-A-Wish Foundation to grant a wish for an awesome kid named Zachary. Zachary's one wish was to meet Hellboy, so Perlman donned the costume one more time. Zachary was even transformed into Hellboy himself.
Sorry, Ina. Enzo has already moved on to bigger and better things: DOLPHINS! Next time Ina's team should be more careful about denying Make-A-Wish kids their dreams. View List ›
6-year-old Enzo loved watching the Barefoot Contessa show with his mother while resting in bed. After being diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, he told Make A Wish his one wish was to cook with Ina Garten. The Make A Wish foundation tried to set it up last year, but Ina said she was too busy with a book tour. They tried again this year and Ina's team came back with a "definite no." I will never watch Barefoot Contessa the same way again. View Image ›

We all get so busy this time of year, I'm sure you'll agree that there is no time for mistakes or for making dishes that don't turn out. That's why I tend to stick to the tried and true -- those recipes that have stood the test of time. Many of these recipes have been passed down from friend to friend or from one generation to the next. Making the recipe is a sweet way to remember the person who first gave it to you.
Lynn's Place: As temperatures drop, taste for soup rises
Written by Lynn GreeneThis is the best time of the year to make soup. It warms you up on a cold evening and it makes for an easier meal when you've already run out of daylight hours. I like to get the soup going at a simmer before starting my other chores. At a simmer, soup is pretty self-sufficient -- maybe give a thicker soup a stir more often. Why bother making soup, you might ask, when there are so many brands, varieties and price points in the canned soup aisle? The big reason is that you can control what you put in your soup if you make it yourself.
Lynn's Place: Traveling for Thanksgiving? Bring a side dish
Written by Lynn GreeneNot everyone will be home this Thursday cooking Thanksgiving dinner — some will be traveling to the holiday destination. Hopefully, you will be asked to bring something.
A side dish of vegetables, a special salad or homemade rolls donated by a guest will make the cooking load a bit lighter for the host or hostess. Make one of these dishes before hitting the road for your Thanksgiving destination.
Lynn's Place: Pull up some new ideas with root vegetables
Written by Lynn GreenePull up some new ideas with root vegetables
Everybody seems to be going back to their roots lately. Genealogy groups are growing in popularity and shows like "Who Do You Think You Are?"?have made history cool again. Well, I hope to do the same thing for these roots:?turnips, parsnips, carrots. To prepare these vegetables for the dinner plate, you'll need to peel them before cutting them down to size. This is important because they can have a tough core to them, and if left whole when the vegetable is a little oversized, the outer edges will be done, but this core will be barely al dente. Now, for the specific varieties and a few recipes on how to get started dining on this very "a-peeling" root family.
Lynn's Place: Save time in the kitchen with one-pot meals
Written by Lynn GreeneDaylight saving time ends today, Nov. 3, and that's good for early risers, but it's rather sad to come home from school or work in the dark. It seems to make time disappear when it's dark so early. But there's always time to make a nice dinner when you use one of these recipes -- everything in one pot and you're free to do something else for a couple of hours.

FL-17's Scott Galvin isn't running for Class President, he's running for Congress. Different rules and standards apply.
http://hallandalebeachblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/coming-sunday-scott-galvins-fl-17.html a Scott Galvin supporter from North Miami can't quite 'hold-his-horses.'
He couldn't simply wait patiently until Sunday for the photographic proof I will be posting here that was, after all, literally, mailed to me by Galvin's campaign, that among the many other things that have been said and written about FL-17 congressional candidate Scott Galvin of North Miami over the past few months, that he is impatient, lacks gravitas and perhaps a little too thin-skinned to be an elected official beyond the parochial city limits of North Miami, Galvin seems to lack the ability to effectively manage and delegate to subordinates. You know, his own campaign workers and contractors?
That's not a good sign for him now or for his political future.
This swiping of my photos without my permission is but the latest example I've seen that he is not quite ready for prime time.
On Sunday, I'll have YET another example altogether, complete with photos -ones that I've been sitting on for weeks- showing that serious citizens concerned about the innate character and common sense of their representation in Washington, D.C. would be wise to look elsewhere.
Scott Galvin isn't running for Class President, he's running for Congress, and we don't have to pretend to like him if we find him lacking in character or don't believe he will be a genuine common sense independent voice for positive change instead of an ideologue.
Different rules and standards apply, but he and his supporters seem not to have gotten that memo.
But he's hardly alone in that respect.
For this congressional election, this year, in my opinion, Galvin simply isn't the caliber of person I want representing me and my part of this country in D.C.
I want a unique voice who will challenge the conventional wisdom and negative reputation of South Florida congressmen, NOT another member for the echo chamber.
You have to represent citizens who disagree with you, too.
Below is the email exactly as it was sent to me this morning for inclusion in reader comments. While clearly well-intentioned, it only serves to confirm my suspicions that Scott Galvin & Company are NOT ready for prime time right now.
Maybe in the future after he's really really done something, but definitely NOT now.
Maybe others are willing to waste their vote, but I'm not.
We surely don't need more show horses like Alan Grayson in Congress, we need more work horses.
I spent over 15 years in Washington, much of it on Capitol Hill, and know the difference between the two from seeing examples of both nearly everyday.
I suspect most of you have the good sense to appreciate the distinction as well.
With all the problems that our country, state and local community faces, does this really matter? Galvin has been an exemplary public servant. He has run a classy, clean and progressive campaign.
If some graphic designer searched the web for an image, and used it for one of his mailers, is it really reflective on him in any way? I can guarantee you that Galvin does not design his own mail pieces. Nor does any other candidate.
Of all the things to talk about in this election, this is the one that I have seen that matters the least. Galvin is a terrific candidate.
Watch this space on Sunday and judge for yourself whether you want someone representing you in Washington who doesn't pay attention to what he says and does.
I do.
Hallandale Beach Blog is where I try to inject or superimpose a degree of accountability, transparency and insight onto Florida and local Broward County government and public policy issues, which I feel is sorely lacking in local media now. On this blog, locally, I concentrate my energy, enthusiasm, anger and laser-like attention on the coastal cities of Hallandale Beach and Hollywood.
If you lived in this part of South Florida, you'd ALREADY be stuck in stultifying traffic, paying higher-than-necessary taxes and continually musing about the chronic lack of accountability among not only elected govt. officials, but also of city, county and state employees as well. Collectively, with a few rare exceptions, they couldn't be farther from the sort of strong results-oriented, eager work-ethic mentality that local residents deserve and expect.
This is particularly true in the town I live in, the City of Hallandale Beach, just north of Aventura and south of Hollywood. There, the "Perfect Storm" of years of apathy, incompetency and cronyism are all too readily apparent.
Sadly for its residents, HB is where even easily-solved, quality-of-life problems are left to fester for YEARS on end, because of myopia, lack of common sense and ineffective supervisory management. It's a city with lots of potential because of its terrific location, yet its citizens have become numb to its outrages and screw-ups after years of the worst kind of mismanagement and lack of foresight. On a daily basis, they wake up and see the same old problems that have never being adequately resolved by the city in a logical and responsible fashion, merely kicked -once again- further down the road.
I used to ask myself, not always rhetorically, "Where are all the enterprising young reporters who want to show that through their own hard work and enterprise, what REAL investigative reporting can produce?" Hearing no response, I decided to start a blog that could do some of these things, taking the p.o.v. of a reasonable but skeptical person seeing the situation for the first time, and wanting questions answered in a honest and logical way that citizens have the right to expect.
Hallandale Beach Blog intends to be a catalyst for positive change.
If there's one constant gripe in South Florida, regardless of your age, race, nationality or political persuasion, it's about the fundamental lack of PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY here among Florida's state, regional and local govt./agency officials. Hallandale Beach Blog aims to be a small step towards regaining some of that needed accountability, whether it's thru simple public scrutiny, or requires a degree of follow-up investigation and public exposure of incompetency, cronyism or simple negligence -South Florida's usual governing style.

"Why do they need that in the Broward County charter?"
"Laws and Constitutions go for nothing where the general sentiment is corrupt."

"Why do they need that in the Broward County charter?"

Six YEARS after the county's voters had overwhelmingly passed an amendment to the County charter requiring its adoption, the Broward County Commission had yet to live up to its legal responsibility. That's why!

Above, Hallandale Beach City Hall Complex on S. Federal Highway/U.S.-1, where attention to details and appearances has never been their strong suit in the nine years I've lived here, since returning to South Florida after 15 years in the Washington, D.C. area. Thanks to the city's incompetent, myopic and poorly-managed DPW, the spotlights seen above in 2011 on the city's monument sign, at the corner of U.S.-1 & S.E. 5th St., have NOT worked since June of 2012. Which is to say that they have NOT worked since City Manager Renee C. Miller has been in place. The buck stops with her, of course, but as has been the case for YEARS, where the hell is the city's Dept. of Public Works (DPW)? I told the interim Dept. head about this and many other longstanding problems in-person, in early February, eight months ago, and nothing has been done about ANY of these things. But then attention to details and appearances really DO matter when you are a government, and the situation with the lights is but the tip of the iceberg. August 7, 2011 photo by South Beach Hoosier.

Ordinary people can make a difference in fight against corruption in Broward County
The next time you hear someone in Broward County, like one of the usual "experts" or pundits or maybe a self-interested lobbyist like Joy Cooper's supercilious pal Judy Stern repeat the Conventional Wisdom that nobody really cares about ethical behavior, transparency and accountability in Broward cities, except a handful of people, just keep this in mind.
As of December 4, 2013 at 9:45 p.m., in the 59 weeks since I first wrote my October 15th 2012 post titled, "Ethics? Not for us! Follow-up to my post re Hallandale Beach's unethical "business as usual" attitude, with "special rules for special people" if they are named Joy Cooper, Bill Julian and Anthony A. Sanders; What ethics? What rules? @MayorCooper, @SandersHB" it's been viewed 68,406 times. That's more than a thousand page views a week! Imagine that!That total doesn't even include the number of people who saw it the day it was first posted, when it was the default post of the blog. That's a lot of people who now know a lot more facts about the truth regarding the corruption and incompetency that have been commonplace in Hallandale Beach all these years while Broward State's Attorney Mike Satz and his staff did NOTHING. Just saying...
In the continuing opera still called, even by Cubans who have now lived the largest part of their lives in this country, el exilo, the exile, meetings at private homes in Miami Beach are seen to have consequences. The actions of individuals are seen to affect events directly. Revolutions and counter-revolutions are framed in the private sector, and the state security apparatus exists exclusively to be enlisted by one or another private player. That this particular political style, indigenous to the Caribbean and to Central America, has now been naturalized in the United States is one reason why, on the flat coastal swamps of South Florida, where the palmettos once blew over the detritus of a dozen failed booms and the hotels were boarded up six months a year, there has evolved since the early New Year's morning in 1959 when Fulgencio Batista flew for the last time out of Havana a settlement of considerable interest, not exactly an American city as American cities have until recently been understood but a tropical capital: long on rumor, short on memory, overbuilt on the chimera of runaway money and referring not to New York or Boston or Los Angeles or Atlanta but to Caracas and Mexico, to Havana and to Bogota and to Paris and Madrid. Of American cities Miami has since 1959 connected only to Washington, which is the peculiarity of both places, and increasingly the warp...
"The general wildness, the eternal labyrinths of waters and marshes, interlocked and apparently neverending; the whole surrounded by interminable swamps... Here I am then in the Floridas, thought I," John James Audobon wrote to the editor of The Monthly American Journal of Geology and Natural Science during the course of an 1831 foray in the territory then still called the Floridas. The place came first, and to touch down there is to begin to understand why at least six administrations now have found South Florida so fecund a colony. I never passed through security for a flight to Miami without experiencing a certain weightlessness, the heightened wariness of having left the developed world for a more fluid atmosphere, one in which the native distrust of extreme possibilities that tended to ground the temperate United States in an obeisance to democratic institutions seemed rooted, if at all, only shallowly. At the gate for such flights the preferred language was already Spanish. Delays were explained by weather in Panama. The very names of the scheduled destinations suggested a world in which many evangelical inclinations had historically been accommodated, many yearnings toward empire indulged...
In this mood Miami seemed not a city at all but a tale, a romance of the tropics, a kind of waking dream in which any possibility could and would be accommodated...
So this is where our tax dollars go to die?
"So this is where our tax dollars go to die? My friend and fellow civic activist Csaba Kulin, perhaps wondering when we're FINALLY going to get the clean and inviting public beach that Hallandale Beach residents believe we're entitled to but have never received under Mayor Cooper and her Rubber Stamp Crew.
Instead, we get rusty pipes in the middle of the beach and garbage cans on the beach -without lids- at the windiest place in the entire city. And a public building across the street from the beach that the public can't use for free but which city employees can -for their holiday parties."

Ria Formosa, on the coast of the Algarve close to Faro, is one of the area's most popular destinations for bird lovers and a wonderful place to spend the day. A protected nature reserve, the park covers over 50km of coastline from Tavira in the east to Ancao, encompassing almost the entire Formosa Estuary
The park is made up of a narrow strip of land separated from the sea by vast sand dunes, behind which lies a labyrinth of lagoons and small sand islands, mud flats, marshes and canals.The park holds special appeal for bird watchers, who flock to see a wide range of breeds such as the little bittern and purple heron, as well as egrets, white stork and the stone-curlew.
Many make this their breeding ground, while others use it as a migratory stopover. At the right time of year it's also possible to see the great spotted cuckoo, tawny Pipit, bluethroat, pied flycatcher and various warblers. Some birds of prey, such as the hunting kestrel, are frequent visitors to this protected zone.
The park also has the famous 'Portuguese Water Dogs'. These lovely shaggy dogs were once used by fishermen to drive fish into their nets. They even have webbed feet. The park is also an area of great botanical interest, with woodland, marsh and dune vegetation. This is a fantastic place to enjoy a short walk or take a longer hike. Take a sturdy pair of boots and binoculars, or just a blanket and a picnic, for a peaceful day away from the crowds on the beach.
Getting There
If you'd like to see the Portuguese Water Dogs then head to the Olhao entrance to the partk. The turning for the park is about 1km East of Olhao off the N125. It can be most easily reached by taking the Olhao turning off the motorway (IP1) and heading towards Olhao. When you reach the N125 roundabout turn right then you will see the brown sign at the next left turning. The park is on the left just after the railway tracks.
Local Tip
Take a coolbox with your picnic and a decent set of walking shoes as the carp park is near the entrace and you will see the most beautiful parts of the park if you walk a while. Worth a chat with the security guard and getting a map from him before heading into the park.

Ghana Air Force Delegation Visits Ramstein
A Ghana air force delegation, led by Col. Mike Kwame Appiah-Agyekum, visited Ramstein AB, Germany, for a first-hand look at how the Air Force trains its enlisted personnel. During the three-day visit in late September, Appiah-Agyekum, GAF director of administration, toured the First Term Airmen Center, the Kisling Noncommissioned Officer Academy, and Airmen Leadership School, states a Sept. 29 Ramstein release. The GAF plans to open its own enlisted academy, modeled on the Air Force's enlisted professional military education set-up, to educate Ghanaian airmen as well as those from air forces across sub-Sahara Africa, states the release. "If we don't give our [enlisted airmen] quality, professional training, we'll be left behind," said Appiah-Agyekum. The new academy "will enhance our collaborative relationships in all of West Africa," he said. This visit is one of the many partnership-building activities by US Air Forces in Europe-Air Forces Africa with African air arms. (Ramstein

There's only one thing I like to do.
The only thing I like to do is undress the girl completely before I decide to redress her.
Rated 3 / 5 stars July 31, 2007
I usually dont like dress-up games, and I have no Idea how I found myself playing this one, but yea, I liked it. I had to check the first one too, and it was pretty much horrible. But this one is one of the best dress-ups I've tried.
I dont understand that HellkittyNicclass or whoever he was for saying that this is a piece of crap. I'd say its pretty good.

This time she's a bit more "coloured" and has different kinds of hair but... still as crappy as the first one.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars March 24, 2007
Big Improvement... Definately.
This one does a il' better with the color, clothes graphics, playabillity and now contains music. This one is kinda good and worth playing. the number one Dress-Up series on Newrounds does twice as good with this one, but Dress My Babe V still remains tha best!

Not yet. I probably will one day, but I haven't done it yet.
So you're getting it but don't have a plan for using it?
isn't it just financial markets 101?
well yes you cant cover securities without covering the markets. the study of primary and secondary markets goes hand in hand wih the study and overview of debt instruments, equity securities, packaged securities, retirement planning, portfolio analysis. oversite boards etc etc
I could be wrong I dont give a shit, the markets are so corupt anyways...
if u get into managing hedge funds that CAN be some SERIOUS money.... it is pretty hard to get into. there are alot of guys that get tired of the investment banking pace and try to switch into something like managing hedge funds.
There isn't really a big difference in strategy b/t the two these days...hedge funds stopped being true hedges in the late 90s, which is why so many fund manages are out of work.
Managing a fund is a total dream job for me...but you have to build enough credibility (usually at an ibank) to gain the proper capital base.
becoming a successful hedge fund manager in this day and age is a pipe dream. it is the white mans equivalent of becoming a successful rapper or basketball player...
No i didn't miss your point, i was being sarcastic. i have NO desire to be a hedge fund manager. just get into investing make an ass load of money and get out.

Since my husband and I have completely different tastes in music, we occasionally buy audio books if we know we have a long journey together in the car.

We enjoyed every minute of our stay here. You are very much part of a bigger resort, but you don't have to leave The Shore if you don't want to. We... stayed for three nights which was the prefect amount of time. I usually like to go exploring and it was nice to just stop and relax for a few days. Service was great, staff were really friendly and helpful and there was a nice vibe to the place. And the rooms were awesome!!! بواسطة JoS من UK بتاريخ 2013/11/24

Hi! I am a very concerned about internet privacy and use a program called HD-X Lock to set a master and user password to the HDDs firmware (on the pcb of the HDD) so that nowbody exept me can (with a boot disk and the program) read the HDDs exept they pysically open the HDD and take the spindle to a external reader (or change the PCB to a same one without passwords?). The program is compatible with all HDDs which are ATA compatible. The program is quite cheap and the demo should provide some security but not all that is possible... Also i use a anonymous VPN internet tunnel called Relakks (from Sweden) which gives me a new IP adress over the ISP ones so that i always apear to be from Sweden - the providers of this service dont give away information of me to anyone exept i did something that would inprison me for over 2 years. Also the connection from my ISP to the VPN server is 128bit encrypted so that my ISP sees only bits and bytes but not what i really do. The service cost only 5€ a month. Furthermore i use Peerguardian2 which is a ip-blocker that has several lists of ips and ip ranges which it does not allow connections to. The program is free.. Always glad to help so post if you got questions.
Now Relakks offers a free 30day of their service to try it out.. now you can see if it works for you without paying the 5€..
If someone -really- wants to get your data, they're just going to break into your house and rob you What happens when a family member needs to get on your computer whilst you're on holiday? or you lose this disk? Your ISP won't give out your details either, unless the government lean on them... if the government lean on them then you've probably been doing illegal things... just move to Sweden and be done with it I do dislike the way that some companies are milking the generally ignorant over "securty" on their pc's *cough* norton, symantec *cough*. I mean, if you don't download illegal music or visit warez sites you're not going to get a virus or "spyware" or anything (i swear the definition of spyware covers basically anything...) Oh, and don't reply to emails like "send us your bank details, we need to do some security checks.".
I would imagine the VPN in itself is a bad idea when it comes to security; and I can't see a pseduo-proxy doing anything good for your bandwidth rate...
Whats true is that i had more port-scans while using the VPN then without.. my Firewall though blocks them.. The bandwidth suffers from the distance to Sweden so i get 400KB/s from 1.3MB/s normally but that is good compared to many none working or slow proxies out there..
And for that they will use google maps so they have a 3D pic of your house lol. On subject: I have nothing to hide so hiding my real ip and stuff is pointless. I use a good firewall that can filter out any kind of ads and any IP number + many other things to boot so all good there. Not seen a virus since i stopped using P2P which is some years ago now and then aVast stopped those.

24,000-year-old Siberian boy links Western Europeans to Native Americans
The anthropological world was stunned when the recent genome study of the 24,000-year-old remains of a small Siberian boy revealed that the child was both part-Western European and modern Native American.
This turns on its head the long-held notion that those who first settled the Americas (themselves descendants of Siberian populations) were related to East Asians, as well as raising questions as...
