The 10 Greatest Footballers To Never Play in the World Cup
The World Cup is football's biggest stage, where legends like Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, and Beckenbauer helped cement their status among the game's greats.
However, for other legendary players, qualifying for the World Cup was something they would never experience.
The following 10 greats either experienced personal misfortune or found themselves as great players representing soccer minnows with little help on their respective national teams.
However, the one thing they all have in common is that they never played on the world's greatest stage.
George Best
Northern Ireland: 1964-77
37 caps, nine goals.
Perhaps the greatest British footballer to ever live, George Best never played in a World Cup.
A legend at Old Trafford, Best scored 138 goals with the Red Devils and was widely considered the best player in England during the early part of his career.
While a legend in Manchester, Best rarely showed the same eye for goal representing Northern Ireland.
However, Northern Ireland did not qualify for the World Cup Final in 1966, '70, or '74, and while the side did qualify in 1982, Best's talents were deteriorated by his alcohol abuse, and he was not chosen.
Eric Cantona
France: 1987-95.
45 caps, 20 goals.
The international career of "Eric the Great" was filled with controversy and clashes with management and French football officials.
Always talented yet mercurial Cantona had infamous run-ins with French managers Henri Michel, Gerard Hollier, and Aime Jacquet.
In qualifying for United States '94, France needed only two points from their last two matches to qualify for the finals. However, they drew against a weak Israeli side and lost in injury time to Bulgaria and failed to qualify.
Leading up to France '98, Cantona was under suspension for the infamous Crystal Palace incident and was not chosen to the side where France won their only World Cup.
Alfredo di Stefano
Argentina: 1947-49; Colombia: 1949-54; Spain: 1954-61.
41 caps, 29 goals.
When the list of greatest footballers of all time is made, there are always four names listed at the top of that list: Pele, Cruyff, Maradona, and di Stefano.
The great Argentinean-born di Stefano represented the nation of his birth internationally, but his nation chose to not participate in the 1948 World Cup.
After a brief stint as a Colombian national, di Stefano became a Spanish citizen in 1956; however, the Spainards failed to qualify for Sweden '58.
In the twilight of his career, di Stefano led Spain to qualification in Chile '62. However, an injury kept him from playing in the finals.
Duncan Edwards
England: 1955-58
18 caps, five goals
Football's most tragic figure, none other than Sir Bobby Charlton has said Edwards was a vastly superior player to him who would have surely been the captain of England's 1966 World Cup championship side.
Arguably the most talented of Busby's Babes, Edwards represented England in a friendly at the age of 18, at the time the youngest player to ever represent the English national team (a record since broken by Michael Owen and Theo Walcott).
During qualification for Sweden '58, English manager Walter Winterbottom had selected Edwards to take over the right wing position from longtime English captain Billy Wright.
However, on Feb. 6, 1958, Edwards was critically injured in the Munich Air Disaster and died from kidney failure two weeks later.
Duncan Edwards was 21 years old.
Ryan Giggs
Wales: 1991-2007
64 caps, 12 goals.
One of the most respected players in English football history, Giggs' home nation never came close to qualifying for the four World Cup finals during his international career.
Always a football minnow, Wales (aside from a fading Ian Rush) had few other top flight players and were never a threat to qualify.
Giggs was also notable for rarely playing in Welsh friendlies, a decision relating more to Sir Alex Ferguson's unwillingness to release him than his personal preference.
In a 2006 friendly against Brazil, the yellow and blue's manager Dunga paid Giggs the ultimate compliment, saying the Welshman was good enough to easily have earned a spot in his side.
Andrei Kanchelskis
Soviet Union: 1989-91; Commonwealth of Independent States: 1992; Russia: 1992-98
57 caps, seven goals.
The excellent Russian winger was a mainstay for both Manchester United during Alex Ferguson's rebuilding efforts and also on Mersyside at Everton.
Born in the Ukraine, of Lithuanian parents, and a resident of Russia, Kanchelskis chose to play for the latter after the fall of the Soviet Union and the dissolving of the Commonwealth of Independent States.
Kanchelskis represented Russia in the European Championships in both 1992 and 1996.
However, after helping Russia qualify for United States '94, he led a boycott of manager Pavel Sadyrin and refused to play.
Jari Litmanen
Finland: 1989-present
122 caps, 30 goals.
Second to only Michael Landrup as the greatest Scandinavian footballer of all time, Litmanen, like Ryan Giggs, has never been close to even qualifying for a World Cup final.
The former Ajax legend is the most capped player in Finnish history. Litmanen scored his first international goal 20 years ago and is still an active footballer representing his nation.
At the age of 36 and coming off ankle surgery, Litmanen chose to take part in European Championship qualifying, scoring two goals in the final two matches.
Still representing his nation at nearly 40, Litmanen is still playing for the Finnish National Team and still playing well.
Abedi Pele
Ghana: 1982-98
73 caps, 33 goals.
The three-time African Footballer of the Year is still a legend in the French-speaking African nations as well as South Africa.
One of the top players in Ligue One for nearly two decades, Pele did more than Roger Milla to lead the influx of top African players into European professional soccer.
However, despite the success of the Ghana youth teams and his own professional career, Pele was unable to lead his nation to five World Cup Finals.
Well-publicized disputes with fellow European-based teammate Tony Yeboh led to disharmony on the squad, although their feud was settled in time for the Black Stars to finish second in the 1992 African Cup of Nations.
Ian Rush
Wales: 1980-96
73 caps, 28 goals.
The grand gentleman of Merseyside never played in a World Cup Final despite his success at the club level at Liverpool.
The all-time leading scorer in Welsh National Team history, Rush, like Ryan Giggs later, found himself an elite player representing a nation with little else in terms of high level football talent.
Rush attempted to qualify for four World Cup Finals and (alongside Giggs) nearly led Wales to the 1998 European Championships in England.
The high point of Rush's career might have came in 1988 after an ill-fated move to Juventus earlier in the year, when the Welshman scored the only goal in a 1-0 upset of Italy.
George Weah
Liberia: 1988-2002
60 caps, 22 goals.
Weah is both the only FIFA Footballer of the Year from Africa and also the only person given that award who never played in a World Cup Final.
The greatest African player to ever live, Weah was the best forward in both France and Italy during the prime of his career.
At the international level, Weah wasn't only a member of the Liberian National Team; he WAS the Liberian National Team.
War-torn Liberia, under the brutal regime of genocidal kleptocrat Charles Taylor, did not have the money to even field a side when Weah personally bankrolled his home side, played, and even coached Liberia.
While twice qualifying for the African Nations Cup, the closest Liberia would come to qualifying for a World Cup was when they missed qualification for France '98 by one point.

The Mughal Emperor Shahjahan ordered it built in memory of his favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal, who died in 1629A.D. Islamic architecture, in its purest form, is epitomized by the Mughal Emperor Shahjahan's Taj Mahal. Work started on this movement in 1634 continued for almost 22 years. Situated in the city of Aqra in India, on the banks of the river Yamuna, the Taj is enclosed in a garden amongst fountains and ornamental trees.The walled complex includes two mosques and an imposing gateway. The tomb is encased in white marble which is decorated with flawless sculptures and inlaid design of flowers and calligraphy cut from precious gems. Below the dome in a dimly lit chamber lie the mortal remains of Shahjahan and beloved wife,queen Mumtaz Mahal, reminding the world of their undying love. It rests on a platform of red sandstone . At each corner of the platform stands a slender minaret (prayer tower). Each tower is 133 feet high . The building itself is 186 feet square. A dome covers the center of the building. It is 70 feet in diameter and 120 feet high.Passages from the Muslim holy book, Quern, decorate the outside. Built in charming environs, the Taj Mahal is one of the most beautiful architectural work in the world. Without doubt, The Taj Mahal ranks as amongst the most perfect buildings in the world, flawlessly proportionate, built entirely out of marble. Intended to be a commemoration of the memory of Shahjahan's beloved wife , in reality it is his gift to entire human race. ANGKOR WAT The city of Angkor, in northwestern Cambodia , was the capital of a kingdom known as the Khmer Empire , for over five- hundred years. In fact, the word "angkor" means capital. It became one of the most architecturally complex places in the world between the 9th and the 13th centuries, but when armies from Thailand captured the city 1431, it was abandoned by most of its citizens. The largest component of this complex is known as Angkor Wat. The word "Wat" means monastery, and it was used as just that. This huge temple was built by King Suryavarman II, who decorated and built it in his Hindu beliefs. Dedicated to the Hindu Gods Shiva, Brahma, and Vishnu. It was a holy place for many. But soon in the ruling of King Jayavaraman VII decided that the Gods of Hinduism had failed him. Buddhism was prevalent in the construction of Angkor Thom, a new nearby capital. The Hindu decorations and deities were replaced by Buddhist carvings, statues, and other art, when it became a Buddhist shrine. The entire city where Angkor Wat is located extends fifteen miles (24 kilometers) from east to west and eight miles (13 kilometers) north to south. Around the temples the terrain is landscaped by and intricate system of reservoirs, canals, and moats that were used for water control and irrigation. The whole system symbolized the Hindu thought of a central mountain, Mt. Meru, a dwelling place for the Gods. Angkor Wat's five central towers represent the peaks of the holy mountain. The enormous moat surrounding the shrine suggests the oceans at the edge of the world. Crossing this moat includes crossing a 617-foot (188-meter) bridge. From the early fifteenth century, when Angkor was completely abandoned, until the late nineteenth century, Angkor was kept intact by the Theravada Buddhist monks. It became one of the most important pilgrimage sites in Southeast Asia. | ||||

BBC Scotland denies pro-SNP bias
Broadcaster denies claims that Newsnight Scotland is biased towards the Scottish National Party.
By Emma Geen Published 10 August 2012The BBC has published a letter in today's Scotsman defending itself against claims that Newsnight Scotland is biased towards the Scottish National Party.
It follows the political drama surrounding an interview broadcast on Tuesday night, in which the Labour MP Ian Davidson referred to the programme as "News-nat Scotland", accused it of pro-SNP bias and refused presenter Isabel Fraser's demands to apologize. Davidson's attack was later supported by Labour activist and former Glasgow Lord Provost Michael Kelly writing in his Scotsman colomn yesterday.
The BBC responded in their letter by saying:
[W]e completely reject suggestions of bias on the part of our journalists working on Newsnight Scotland or, indeed, on any other of our programmes . . . Ms Fraser did what BBC journalists do week in, week out when she robustly, but fairly, challenged the views of Ian Davidson MP on Tuesday evening's show . . . To suggest that by asking these questions she holds or promotes a particular opinion is, quite fundamentally, to misunderstand political interviewing.
However, the Herald's political editor Magnus Gardham argued today that Davidson escalated his attack only "after it emerged an apparently neutral constitutional lawyer interviewed by the programme was an SNP blogger".
The Herald reports that Davidson is now calling for an apology from BBC Scotland.

Red Rain...there's nothing wrong with Unionism, thre is something wrong with the massive media bias in favour of it and there is definitely something wrong about BBC Scotland's traditional support of Labour - even when Labour has been utterly insupportable. For the BBC - and the papers too - there;s nothing wrong with Labour cosying up with the Orange Order. Do you really think that would be acceptable to the Labour party in England, 'cos I don't.
For the BBC - and the papers - Glasgow councillors being so close with gangsters is n't worthy of comment - do you think Labour members anywhere else would be content with that?
For the BBC the tradition of corruption, cronyism and jobs for the boys in Glasgow is just a natural part of political life....I'm glad to see that the Scotsman was prepared to stand up over that one, but it's an isolated example.
To a great degree the SNP have not prospered because they have provided reasonably competent social democrat-style government, it is because the Labour party in Scotland is so raddled with dishonesty.
Incidentally, Davidson has a track record of bullying - or trying to bully women; ask any any number of female Labour activists, MPs, MSPs and activists.
All accuse the BBC of being biased you simply can't please all the people all the time..
The BBC (and ITV for that matter) actually has a long track record of being very sympathetic to Unionism in general and the Labour Party in particular. Quite recently the studio guests on a particular programme discussing independence were all Labour party sympathisers and it has been quite commonplace for all of the guests to be unionists. Is it the case that the BBC are moving toward a neutral stance and that is what Davidson is complaining about?
What's wrong with Unionism?- isn't it better to be part of a unified whole... than a fragmented brooding minority? The British and the Irish have to much shared blood and sadly spilt blood to engage in sectarianism.
Ian Davidson MP, Joyce MP, Devine MP and various other thuggish "Scottish" Labour troughers are standard issue and tell you the pit of naked self interest into which that party has descended.
Oblivion awaits them-or a place in the House of Lords where they can sit in unelected troughing splendour :-)
Davidsons strategem hass been entirely successful. I.E. maximun publicity for I Davidson Plc.
Agree with previous comments He is a well known Bully and, as a former cooncillor and a Glasgow MP very much trades on his "plain speaking" aka threatening behaviuor.
I back the BBC to the hilt on this one.
idependence would minimise the scope for this type of individual to thrive in the culture of smokey Old Labour, the Labour of man's pub and the back room fixers
Davidson is typical of the "North Britisher" Labour MPs who have served Scotland so badly over the years. He has a history of making idiotic statements (such as describing the SNP as neo-fascist) which can only lead to the conclusion that he is an idiot.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
There's such a thing as cutting someone too much slack. At some point, enough is enough. If they really suck that bad (or are that flaky, dishonest, or irresponsible), cut them loose. I admire your kindhearted generosity, except when it gets the best of you or those around you. It's not your job to take in every stray and charity case—especially those who are determined to sabotage anything good in their lives. Let them go hang themselves on someone else's time and in someone else's space, if they can find anyone. Don't be the softhearted sucker this time around.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You don't usually need encouragement to step up—sometimes for opportunities, relationships, and scenarios you're entirely inappropriate for! However, here's something that would be (relatively) perfect for you, and you're too shy, lazy, or nervous to actually raise your hand and take it on? I'd be proud of you if you'd managed to avoid one of those messy, sketchy situations you all too often get mixed up in—but this hardly qualifies. Take a closer look. It's pretty likely you can properly pull this thing off, so jump in quickly, before the window of opportunity closes forever.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
You're not psychic (at least not in this case), so even though you may think you can predict the future and see how this is all going to play out—you're dead wrong. There are surprises ahead. However, they'll only manifest if you're truly open-minded here. Of course, you can still stubbornly make your predictions into self-fulfilling prophecies, if you prefer—but I hope you don't (especially since the scenarios you envisage aren't particularly uplifting or happy ones). Besides, by going that route, you'd be cheating yourself out of a much more interesting, inspiring, and rewarding story.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Most of us have fallen at least a little short of what we dreamed for ourselves ten years ago (while a lucky few met or surpassed those dreams). However, we've all learned a lot—and hopefully those lessons can translate into making our more recently conceived-of goals more achievable. Don't be disheartened that some of the dreams imagined by a younger, less realistic you have proven to be (at least so far) impossible. Many of those you came up with a decade ago required luck or other elements you simply had no control over. Your new dreams are ones that will test your actual skill and determination—and thus can be ones to be proud of.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
We all occasionally have cause to regret or rethink the decisions and choices we've made. It's okay to indulge in these kinds of feelings once in a while—remembering the whole time that there's pretty much nothing you can do about those choices, which brought you to this place. Longing for the supposedly better life other decisions might have brought you should be limited to occasional wistful (and short-lived) daydreams. The rest of the time, but especially this week, you should concentrate on making good choices. Here's where you start from, like it or not. Make the best of it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Everyone views the world through distortive lenses (yes, including you). That means that although someone else's perspective of you might be worth considering, it doesn't mean it's necessarily objective, just because it's coming from an external source. It's colored by their own experiences and way of looking at the world. That's not to say you should view all negative criticism (or positive encouragement) as invalid; however, do take it with a grain of salt. If it motivates you to better yourself, that's fantastic. If, however, it's only demoralizing and depressing, feel free to mostly disregard it while you get your shit together.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
It's funny and fascinating how you can sometimes feel more connected to animals than to people. That's because, of course, animals are simpler. It's not that they give you more—people absolutely have more to offer, if we're going to be objective about it. It's that they give you more than you're willing to actually accept. It's not that animals are better than people—it's that you have fewer walls up when interacting with them. Those defensive buttresses are somewhat obsolete at this point. Take some of those walls down, and you'll notice that your fellow humans are more than willing to give you the same kind of adoration and affection—and more.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
It's my goal this year to become hot (again?). This admittedly rather shallow objective has deeper roots, because eliminating the small spare tire I've accumulated in my thirties means also getting rid of some mental and emotional flab and toning my spiritual as well as physical discipline. By the time I've gotten to the "hot" place (and I'm already several months into the process), I hope to be a lean mean powerhouse on a number of levels. You'd be best served this week (and in the coming months) by holistic goals that serve you on many levels—try to craft yours to do exactly that.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
More than half the time, the reason you can't have what you want is because you won't let yourself. That's right, at least 51% of your unfulfilled dreams, missed chances, and unrequited loves were because you didn't have the chutzpah, self-worth, or drive to just ask for (or simply go for) what you wanted. I can only remind you so often that you deserve most of the good stuff you hope for—you've got to take on the job of reminding yourself, too. When will you stop shooting yourself in the foot like this, and keeping yourself from realizing your own desires? Start this week.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
More often than not, love appears to fall into our laps—but in truth, at those times we were at least subconsciously putting ourselves into places and situations where it might happen. If you're experiencing a dry spell, it's not entirely by accident. Some of it, at least, is your own doing. Of course, going the opposite extreme won't do you much good; few people find slutty desperation attractive. But putting yourself out there, along with opening your mind, could get you further than you think. Don't go out with the intention of finding someone—but do go out. Just try to have fun, and the rest will (eventually) fall into place by itself.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Sometimes it depresses you at how easily people can be manipulated. However, it's not your job to make them savvy, wise, or grounded enough to resist blatant emotional exploitation. You can choose, or not, to take advantage of their susceptibility, but I suspect if you spend too much time protecting people from themselves (and any manipulation, accidental or otherwise, from you), you simply won't get far. You don't need to take people for a ride, but if a little nudge is enough to get someone onto the same page as you, and your intentions are good, I say go for it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
There have been times I've found old journals, bits of writing, and I don't recognize them. They're written in my hand, in my book, so there's no question they came from me, but I have absolutely no recollection of having ever written them. These fascinating presents from a former self have at times confounded, exhilarated, inspired, and amused me. Write a letter to your future self this week. It doesn't have to be anything huge or well thought out. "This is how I'm feeling today," will do. Then forget about it, and don't visit it for years to come.

We have read about the bug in mkpsf which is stated to give the wrong RA
and DEC values in the header of the PSF file made. However, we have
recently made a PSF that appears to have the correct RA and DEC but the
wrong pixel size (CDELT) and center pixel (CRPIX). Does anybody have
experience with this? Is it OK to manually edit the header to the
requested pixel size and center?

Research Article |
Contact author: Tim Brackenbury, Bowling Green State University, Communication Disorders, 200 Health Center Building, Bowling Green, OH 43403. E-mail: tbracke{at}bgsu.edu.
Purpose: Evidence-based practice (EBP) involves the incorporation of research evidence, clinical expertise, and client values in clinical decision making. One case in which these factors conflict is the use of nonspeech oral motor treatments (NSOMTs) for children with developmental speech sound disorders. Critical reviews of the research evidence suggest that NSOMTs are not valid, yet they are widely used by clinicians based on their expertise/experience. This investigation presents detailed descriptions of clinicians' and researchers' views and opinions on NSOMTs and EBP.
Method: Individual interviews with 11 clinicians who use NSOMTs and 11 researchers in child phonology were conducted. The interviews were transcribed and organized into themes, following a phenomenological research design.
Results: Five themes were identified: (a) NSOMTs are effective, (b) EBP is useful, (c) there is no published research supporting NSOMTs, (d) research evidence may change clinical use of NSOMTs, and (e) researchers and clinicians have separate but shared roles in clinical decision making.
Conclusions: The participants' responses provided detailed and complex insights into each group's decisions regarding NSOMTs. These responses also suggested questions that should be considered when making decisions about approaches that are not fully supported by EBP.
Key Words: clinical practice, speech therapy, qualitative research, controversial therapies

James, Like many of your nitwit TP friends you just don't have a clue.
Many people make thier only income from capital gains. Some of these people never worked a day in their lives, should they pay a lower percent of tax on thier income than a working family just trying to get by?
The U.S corporate tax rate is very high compared to other countries, True. But no corporation pays this high rate, None! What they pay is the effective tax rate which is very low. It averages 25% lower than OECD as a share of our GDP. The rate on average corporations pay is 13.4% and generally the larger company you have the lower the effective rate is. Some of our largest corporations pay No corporate tax at all. In the last 50 years or so the percent of tax corporations pay as part of our Federal tax revenue is down 75% and the corporations are making record profits.

Posted by Mrs. Tim Hay on August 29, 2010, 9:31 pm
Words cannot express how much all of your stories, pictures and kind words about Tim have meant to my family. We ALL suffered a great loss together. There will never be another Tim Hay, but his legend will live on. Not so much for racing but for who and what he was and stood for. A family man to the core, a best friend forever and man who was able to take his passion for racing and share it with so many people. We all lost a treasure but God gained a special angel.
While we all mourn my husband's death just remember Tim was never a quitter and would expect all racers to continue your passion as he did his. We knew the risk involved and I was told to prepare myself, that it wasn't a question of if he was going to wreck, but when. I loved my husband enough to let him live his dream of trying to get a 3 second pass. He won because I will bet you it took him 3 seconds or less to get to heaven. It's a long hard road ahead of me and I will have many last moments and first moments of things that I have become accustomed to having him by my side for.
Tim was larger than life and will be missed so very very much. If you were one of the lucky ones to have him in your life then you know what a treasure he was. While we miss his laughter and great smile, he is now sharing these things with his new family upstairs. Just look who we now have to greet us when it's our time to cross over the pearly gates.
May God be with you all and give everyone the strength to continue life as Tim would have it.

Hello Fashionistos! My name is Stephania Lara-Cuellar and I am delighted to return as a Style Guru for Texas State University this fall semester. I am a senior majoring in Public Relations with a double minor in Fashion Merchandising and History. This is my last year of college and I am so excited to document it for CollegeFashionista.
In my year as a Style Guru I have sharpened my eye to notice the beauty of the style that surrounds me. I have learned that good style transcends the test of time and extends far beyond clothing. It is an attitude, it is an ideology or it is as simple as a your grandfather's old sweater. There are no rules for style, and usually those that break them are the ones that stand out the most.
This past summer I had the amazing opportunity to live in New York City. And though it was but a short two months, the impact was prodigious. The ability to be surrounded by so much art can have ever lasting effects. The entire summer was spent marveling at every glorious piece that shapes the Big Apple. This of course, restructured my own personal style.
My personal style will always be an evolving process. I love to learn about new things and incorporate them into my attire. I am far more inspired by the enduring presence of architecture than fleeting trends. I also take to Mexican and French film, music and fashion because those styles still rule large today.
I am an eternally curious human being who finds the world fascinating. CollegeFashionsita has given me a platform to observe the behaviors in trends. This semester I am writing the ACCESSORIES REPORT column, which is a dream come true since accessories are what makes us unique. I am so excited to share it with you readers and hope that you learn as much as I do.

SUNDAY, Oct. 14 (HealthDay News) -- Nightmares are common in children and upsetting for both youngsters and parents, but there are some things you can do to manage and prevent them, an expert says.
You should never ignore a child's nightmare-related cries in the middle of the night and you should go to the child immediately, Dr. Tom Jackson, a California psychiatrist who specializes in treating sleep problems in children, said in a news release.
If you feel angry, frustrated or impatient with the child, take a few moments to calm yourself before going into the child's room. At this important moment, your child should not feel any negative emotions from you, Jackson said.
Comfort and calm your child by cuddling, gently stroking the child's head or back, and reassuring him or her with comforting words. Listen to your child's fears with empathy, understanding that those fears are real and should not be discounted.
Remind your child that it was only a dream, but remember that young children don't yet understand that dreams aren't real, Jackson said. Help your child take charge of dreams by suggesting, for example, that he or she imagine the nightmare ending in a happy way.
Preventing nightmares is the best solution and there are many ways to do this, Jackson said.
Make bedtime a comfortable and safe experience for your child. This can include relaxation-inducing rituals such as reading; having a bath or gentle massage; drinking a mug of warm herbal, caffeine-free tea; or something as simple as being tucked in with hugs and kisses.
If your child has frequent nightmares, talk together during the day to pinpoint what underlying fears may be causing the bad dreams and then try to resolve those fears, Jackson suggested.
It's also a good idea to analyze your child's daily routine to determine if there are things happening at school, home or elsewhere that could be causing nightmares. This includes monitoring your child's television shows and video games.
If nightmares continue even after you've taken steps to prevent them, it may be a good idea to discuss the issue with your child's doctor, Jackson said.

Died: April 26, 1995
Married: Jean Moore Amory; Ursula Wyatt
Children: With Jean: Garry Trudeau, Jeanne Fenn, Michelle Trudeau
Dr. Francis B. Trudeau was the son of Dr. Francis Berger Trudeau and grandson of Dr. Edward Livingston Trudeau and the father of Garry Trudeau. He was the founding president of the Trudeau Institute.
He was graduated from Yale University in 1942. He served in the Navy in World War II. He was graduated from Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1950, and trained as an intern and resident at Bellevue Hospital and New York University; he took further training at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Montreal. Dr. Trudeau practiced internal medicine in Saranac Lake from 1954 until his retirement in 1985. He was chief of medicine at the General Hospital from 1960 to 1977.

SL's Dr. Trudeau makes own breaks with exercise as motivation
By GEOFF KNAPP Sports Editor
SARANAC LAKE - Dr. Francis Trudeau's athletic achievements extend along a lengthy winding road. The name of the road is Recovery.
The 61-year-old Saranac Lake native has rebounded from over seven major orthopedic problems, including a broken back and hip, to capture first place in the Masters 15-kilometer Cross-Country Ski Championships held Monday at Mt. Van Hoevenberg. The event was a part of the Empire State Winter Games.
'Functional return' is a term which Trudeau uses to describe the ability to not only have an injury mended but to also regain full use of areas affected. The full recovery of an injured athlete involves a meticulous schedule of exercise but Trudeau believes that physical recovery is only 50 percent of the fight to a complete functional return.
The mental attitude of the athlete on the rebound is critical for an entire recovery, according to the healthy Trudeau.
The string of injuries started while a member of the Yale University ski jumping team in the late 1930s. A jump in the U.S. National Ski Jump competitions resulted in a broken back and numerous other related complications.
Fortunately for Trudeau, another competitor in the meet came to his aid and helped him to the stretcher. The doctor recalls that the help came from a man named Art Devlin.
After being transported in a hearse to the hospital (no ambulance was available). Trudeau was placed in a body cast which extended from his lower torso all the way to his neck.
Other complications stemmed from the injury including problems with joints and bone marrow infections.
Trudeau overcame the majority of problems related to the injury and pursued a Naval R.O.T.C career which began in 1942 in Tunisia, North Africa.
While serving overseas, the officer ran into further misfortune and seriously injured his knee. This time the recovery period included three years of being placed on crutches.
The Saranac Lake native returned to medical school in 1946 at New York City's Columbia University where he met sports medicine expert Hans Krauss. Krauss emphasized the theory of functional return to Trudeau who began a series of therapeutic exercises to regain full use of his leg in athletic activity.
Back in the North Country in the late '60s, the doctor received further guidance from Lake Placid's Dr Ed Hixson.
Hixson's guidance carried Trudeau back to the winter sports scene where he became a ski patrol at Whiteface Mountain.
Trudeau utilized his own experiences by putting his first-hand knowledge into practice in Saranac Lake.
The remarkable story became almost an epic for the determined doctor in 1979.
After returning from a trekking tour in the Himalayas, further misfortune struck. Trudeau slipped on an ice patch outside Lake Placid's Olympic Arena and the end result was a broken hip.
Dr. Craig Dumond from Ray Brook performed surgery which required a complete replacement of the hip. Dumond has since become chiefly responsible for the amazing comeback.
Dumond theorized that jogging would put too much pressure on the hip region but that the sliding action of cross-country skiing would act as an excellent exercise tool.
Trudeau has become very active in the sport of rowing where last summer he was vice-president of the Lake Placid Rowing Club.
Trudeau believes that motivation reaps one of the highest rewards possible— a bountiful life which includes constant activity.
The Evil Knievil of winter sports will continue to compete when he travels to Bretton Woods, New Hampshire Saturday where he will compete in the 50-kilometer Yukon Jack crosscountry ski race.
Trudeau strongly believes that good health is more than the absence of disease. He says that to get the full optimum of life there is only one medicine he prescribes— exercise.

Meath student going for gold
Natalya Coyle with Olympic Council of Ireland president Pat Hickey is one of five recipients of Olympic scholarships presented by the Olympic Council of Ireland, OCI, to young athletes preparing for qualification for the 2012 London Olympic Games.
To reach the pinnacle of any sport requires dedication, commitment, hard work and plenty of ability. The demands on a pentathlete can be even greater as they bid to reach the summit.
Tara Athletic Club boast one of the worlds leading exponents in 20-year-old Natalya Coyle and already her exceptional abilities have led to her gaining international recognition and financial support from the Olympic Council of Ireland (OCI).
Last month she was named as one of five recipients of OCI scholarships awarded to young athletes bidding to qualify for the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Coyle, a Trinity College student of Business, Economics and Social Studies, aims to represent Ireland at the London Games in the sport of Modern Pentathlon. She joins Lisa Kearney (Judo), Aileen Morrison (Triathlon), Barry Watkins (Canoeing) and Sam Watson (Equestrian) on the OCI scheme.
The Olympic Council funding helps pay for travel abroad in an effort to qualify for the Olympics in London in 2012. The grant also comes with all the support services such as gym work and physio visits. The Olympics in 2012 is my major goal at the moment, said Coyle as she took a break from her studies last week to talk to the Meath Chronicle.
Our scheme is primarily aimed at so-called minority sports and is especially geared to support young athletes who have an excellent chance of making the strenuous qualification standards for the London Games, commented OCI president Pat Hickey
We are confident that all five athletes will make the Irish Olympic team for London and that the scholarships, to be used for training and competition purposes, will help them improve their already high competition rankings.
Coyle, Eanna Bailey (Rolestown) and Arthur Lanigan-OKeeffe (Kilkenny) continued their preparations for the 2011 competition season with a warm up competition in Bath last month.
The Meath girl finished ninth in a high quality womans field after taking three seconds off her long-course swim time.
Bailey finished third after a very strong fence with Lanigan-OKeeffee in sixth place.
Travelling abroad to compete at international events is not uncommon for Coyle and her team mates and the Tara girl is focused on what is required to make it to the top.
The penathlon is a difficult sport because of the multi-discipline. It is so difficult to train for all the events because they are all so different. There is running, shooting, swimming, riding and fencing and I have to try to get in enough training for all those different events, said Coyle.
I would train for around 25 hours a week and that is the most difficult part. It is starting to get a bit easier because I have a great support system now with the Institute of Sport, with my college and with my coaches.
I only have one day off per week, a Sunday while Tuesday is one of my busiest days. Im in the gym for an hour from 7.0 and then I do running from 9.0 to 10.0. I go straight into shooting then from 10.0 to 11.0 before I take a bit of a break where I have to go to college.
I start back then with fencing from 2.30 to 5.0 before I head to the pool for swimming from 7.0 to 9.0. So it is a 14-hour day on a Tuesday and it is hard work. On the other days I do three or four sessions.
Im really starting to enjoy the fencing discipline and it is becoming my favourite event. Since Ive started to do more training that has become really enjoyable. Im in a great club in Trinity, but I like all the disciplines because all the training is starting to pay off.
I would probably be best at the horse riding discipline because I have been riding horses since a very young age with the pony club. I used to do tetrathlon with the pony club and I progressed from there to the penathlon, she said.
Olympic qualification takes huge amount of dedication, but Coyle is confident that she has the right support and ability to get her to where she needs to be.
If she can maintain her current form over the next 12 months then she will be a major contender for the London Games. However, she knows it will be hard work, but she is willing to make the sacrifices.
It is going to be really difficult to qualify for the Olympics. Last year I qualified in the top 36 for the World Cup final in June, so if the Olympics were last year I would have qualified.
My aim this year is to compete in the top events again and gather enough ranking points to be in the top 36 in the world and therefore qualify. Im confident that is within my reach, but it will all come down to hard work.
Im lucky because two of my really good friends Eanna and Arthur are involved as well so it makes it easier. Throughout all the disciplines I have made great friends and I train with them as well.
My ultimate aim is to qualify for the Olympics and that is where my focus is. If I do manage to qualify then all the sacrifice is worthwhile, concluded the determined young Tara woman who is aiming to be a major hit on the worldwide stage.

It's WIAAW (shock)
No, that's not a typo in the title. Today I am posting what I actually ate today, on this Wednesday.
My week of hols is flying by but it's been a productive one thus far. A highlight was getting new glasses and discovering that my left eye is pretty much worthless in so far as it adds nothing to my vision. It's just lazy and lets my right eye do all the work.
Another highlight was going back to uni to meet my dissertation supervisor about getting an article from my dissertation published in a nursing journal.
And the final highlight was attending my first ever Zumba class this evening. I was awesome. I made up my own dance moves, shook my body to my own rhythm 'n' everything. Skillz. In all seriousness though, it was such great fun that it didn't matter whether you could follow the moves and music.
As for food, here's most of what I've been munching on today, and without explanations because I'm too lazy on a tight schedule this evening; The American Office Season 6 is waiting for me upstairs (the boxset arrived yesterday in the post, after what seemed like forever since I pre-ordered it). Anyways, here goes!
Another WIAW almost over.
Ta-ta for now! xxx

Son loves it ... but SOOO ANNOYING!

My son loves the turtle, but there is a definite flaw in design. When he holds onto one of the legs it sticks on the same sound until he lets go of it. Of course at 3 years old, he likes loud repetitive noises, as parents, we do not! Once he lets go of the leg, it will finish the saying. The part of mask that is "tied" fell out after 1 day of play, but we superglued it back on.

These are awesome figures. Ordered all four of the turtles. All came in one box. Box was damaged on one side and two of the turtles boxes were crushed on the sides., I exchanged them at the store with no problems.
Sound makes this action figure great

Bought the product as a gift for my nephew. Said he loved it and his mom told me he plays with it all the time.

Want to see a House of Shadows gameplay video? We have you covered.
I'd love to try out this brandnew game, but... the problem still remains that it is only for iPhones and iPads and I use an Android phone... =/
Is there any way you could release these games for Android based phones too? Or are they really exclusive to iPhones? =)
It looks great btw! =D
Hope you're able to have this game on ArmorGames as a Flash Game as well so I can enjoy it! ;)
Its great to know that free games on one's iPhone are still out there, and this is certainly one of those games.

Novelist Chad Prevost Delays 'Happiness'
This is a story about writing--a story that involves bigger questions about the current e-book revolution and the future of publishing. It's a story about the way that writing can go off in unexpected directions.
Chad Prevost's first novel, The Director Of Happiness, was supposed to be published online in installments starting this month. At the last minute, Prevost and his publisher decided to delay publication and add new perspectives to his novel. In this funny, sometimes poignant interview, Prevost explains why.
