Too often we forget it, but rest is one of the keys to training and future performance. There are many different techniques for recovering well after exercise. You can use athletic recovery accessories to optimise each of these techniques. Follow the instructions!
Applying cold
Applying cold can promote athletic recovery after intense physical effort, since the feeling of cold can relieve pain. There are several ways to apply cold to your muscles and joints after exercising. The recovery accessories for providing cold should be chosen based on how you want to apply it:
- Instant cold compress: perfect for combat sports and contact sports such as football, rugby, or handball. It is a one-time use item that does not require refrigeration. This type of recovery accessory should be applied with a towel over the area to be treated. We recommend the APTONIA instant cold compress.
- Cold spray: this type of recovery accessory is a fast way to apply cold over the desired area, and it acts instantly. We recommend the APTONIA 250 mL cold spray.
- Reusable compress: With a pocket and a strap to position it well, this compress is very practical. It is reusable and can be used to provide heat or cold. We recommend the APTONIA reusable hot/cold compress.
Applying warmth
The effect of heat can provide better athletic recovery. You should know that we consider a thermal agent to be hot when the temperature is between 34 and 58°C (upper limit set with regard to skin sensitivity). To provide heat, we recommend the APTONIA reusable hot/cold compress, which exists in both sizes M and L.
Compression for recovery after sport
Compression is a technique that allows muscles to be compressed in order to help with recovery after sport by optimising rest periods. Compression socks, such as the APTONIA SOFT300, provide a gradually decreasing compression from the ankle to the calf, and allow for excellent support that reduces muscle vibration. These compression socks are no longer reserved for elite athletes, but are also available to all those who need it for training, travel, the big day or during physiotherapy.
Sports recovery massages
Rest alone is not enough after an intense effort. A sports recovery massage can be a good way to recover after your workout to heal faster, decrease fatigue, or detect tensions and spasms to be reduced. You can use manual massage tools to optimise this athletic recovery technique. These accessories allow muscles to relax. We recommend the APTONIA massage tool for a relaxing effect after exercise! Don't forget your first aid kit! Whether large or small, we recommend always having a first aid kit on hand. The perfect partner for your workouts or family outings, it is essential for all emergencies! Check out the APTONIA family first aid kit and the AP

FOXBORO, Mass. — Shane Vereen needs a nap in the worst way.
The former Cal running back got the call from the Patriots during Friday's second round, packed his bags and went straight to the airport, where he took a red-eye flight to New England. He got to the area at 5 a.m. and has spent his Saturday morning touring Gillette Stadium and meeting with his new coaching staff.
Vereen's eyes were puffy, and his voice was raspy. When asked if he was a coffee drinker, he responded, "No, I might need to start, though."
It's a necessary process during the NFL's touch-and-go labor situation. Draft picks can meet with teams through Saturday, but they'll be locked out after that. Therefore, it's important for all parties to take advantage of the loophole in the rule, and Vereen has already met with Bill Belichick and running backs coach Ivan Fears.
So far, Vereen has enjoyed what he's seen, even with his eyes half shut.
"[It's] very exciting," Vereen said. "Everything is everything I pictured it to be and more. I'm just all in all excited to be here and happy with the situation that I've fallen into."

CMDCM (AW/NAC/IDW/EXW/SW) Franklin "Spike" Call
Master Chief Call started his naval career in 1988 at Recruit Training Center, Orlando, Fla. He followed on to Photographer's Mate 'A' School at NAS Pensacola, Fla., and after graduation, was assigned to USS Constellation (CV 64) in San Diego, Calif. While on board he was advanced to Petty Officer Third Class, completed WESTPAC and NORPAC deployments, and sailed "around the horn" to the Philadelphia Naval Ship Yard.
In September 1990, Master Chief transferred to Naval Aircrew Candidate School with follow-on orders to Fleet Imaging Center Rota, Spain, as an aerial photographer. Following graduation he was designated a Naval Air Crewman, earning the Aerial Photographer NEC 8288. Additionally he was promoted to Photographer's Mate Second Class and returned to the Naval Schools of Photography to earn the Motion Picture Cameraman NEC 8133.
In November 1993, Master Chief reported to Combat Camera Group Atlantic, Norfolk, Va. There he completed two six-month deployments, traveled extensively supporting operations and exercises throughout Europe and the Caribbean Basin and was meritoriously advanced to Photographer's Mate First Class.
In July 1997 Master Chief was accepted to the coveted military advanced photojournalism program at The Newhouse School, Syracuse University, earning the Photojournalist NEC 8148. Upon graduation, follow-on orders were issued to Combat Camera Group Pacific, San Diego, Calif. In 2001 he was tested, selected, and initiated as a Chief Petty Officer and later deployed in support of post 9/11 operations.
Master Chief Call transferred to Fleet Imaging Center Pacific, Atsugi, Japan, in November 2002 and served as the Chief Petty Officer in Charge, managing five facilities spread throughout the Commander, Naval Forces Japan area of responsibility.
In November 2005, Master Chief Call went back to sea aboard USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76). There he served as the DLCPO for the Graphics Media Department, completed two WESTPAC deployments, was awarded the 2007 Commander U.S. Naval Air Forces Leadership Award, and was promoted to the rank of Senior Chief Petty Officer.
In December 2008 Master Chief detached from Ronald Reagan and reported to the Senior Enlisted Academy with follow-on orders to Expeditionary Combat Camera, Norfolk, Va., as the Senior Enlisted Leader. After being selected for Master Chief and Command Master Chief, he returned to Newport, R.I. for the CMC/COB course. His first CMC position began in 2011 with the "Wallbangers" of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron (VAW) 117, in Ventura, California. He completed an eight-month deployment aboard USS Nimitz (CVN 68) with the Wallbangers earning CVW-11's Top Hook and Golden Wrench Awards as well as the Battle "E" and Admiral Frank Akers Award as the best VAW squadron in the fleet.
Master Chief Call returned to USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76) as their CMC in the spring of 2014. Since then he has hull-swapped with approximately 1,400 crewmembers from Ronald Regan to USS George Washington (CVN 73), and sailed her "around the horn" to Norfolk, Va. Master Chief hull-swapped a second time with the crew to USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) and currently serves as the "Big Stick" CMC in San Diego, Calif. Master Chief Call is the only CMC to ever execute a three-carrier hull swap.
Command Master Chief Call has been awarded the Meritorious Service Medal, Joint Service Commendation Medal, Navy/Marine Corps Commendation Medal, Joint Service Achievement Medal (two awards), Navy Achievement Medal (five awards) and various campaign and service medals. His warfare insignia include Aviation Warfare Specialist, Naval Aircrew Warfare Specialist, Information Dominance Warfare Specialist, Surface Warfare Specialist and Expeditionary Warfare Specialist.

Petty bureaucrats harm area businesses
Re: the March 23 editorial "It's time to fix area's business-unfriendly image."
Sadly, this editorial spent 90 percent of its comments blaming the Legislature, lack of school funding, roads, taxes and other possible problems affecting the entire region, if not the state.
One short paragraph addressed the real reasons why Tucson and Pima County have this reputation — note that Marana and Oro Valley were not included — it is the rules, regulations, permits and licenses controlled and applied by petty bureaucrats that can be used to make the process fair and reasonable, or apparently all too often, a nightmare.
The editorial asks for specific cases where the experience was either good or bad. It will be very interesting to see who is willing to put their business at risk by blowing the whistle on some county or city department functionary. Better yet, would the county or city officials do anything about it?

Charter schools better, so give them the money
Re: the March 23 editorial cartoon by David Fitzsimmons
Once again, Fitz's Sunday cartoon was based more on ideology than logic, political agenda instead of intention.
Liberals against vouchers have failed to grasp one basic concept: The purpose of education is to educate the youth. The education system's objective is not to provide jobs for teachers but to provide a means for teachers to inspire and inform; jobs (and therefore teachers' unions) are the by-product of educating students.
Why do we care who gets the money as long as the youth get the best education money can buy? Of course, based on statistics, the youth do not get the best education money can buy (based on a comparison to other countries). Statistics also show that charter schools provide a better education for the same money.
Of course, the teachers' union contributes millions to the Democrats' campaigns, so there is a reason for making sure the money keeps going to public schools. Which goal do you support?

Poultry rights bill is a legislative farce
Re: the March 19 article "Mandate for poultry rights advances."
A clear picture of one of Arizona's biggest problems is evident in this article.
Arizona faces issues with child health and safety, infrastructure, funding for public education, health care, inability to attract business, mental health and a host of other problems.
But our "lawmakers" are concerned with private ownership ... of chickens?
Both the Senate and House are complicit in this farce. We are not served by either house, which appears, in this instance, to lack the compassion, intelligence and political courage to engage the issues that affect all Arizonans in their daily lives.

Krauthammer's knife no baguette alternative
Re: the March 21 column "Putin wields a knife; Obama whips out a baguette."
I had to go back and read Charles Krauthammer's column a couple times before I realized he really does not get it. Sometimes a baguette is better than a knife.
One can gain sustenance from a baguette but not so much from a knife unless one wants to feast on what is slain by the knife. And that may be Putin's intent. If Krauthammer thinks we should just sneak into this conflict as we did in Vietnam, maybe he should reread some history.
I make no pretense to understand foreign relations and the political implications, but I do know that it is much easier to criticize if one has no "skin in the game," and certainly there are many pundits on both the left and the right who have none.
Maybe all the critics should put some skin in the game, but that is not likely to happen.

Poll on D-M support was just propaganda
Re: the March 20 article "92% back D-M, other area bases, poll shows."
The least the Star can do to regain some integrity on this issue is to print the truth about the propaganda disguised as a survey or poll that led to this article.
The sham survey was funded by the Southern Arizona Defense Alliance and conducted by Strongpoint Marketing, whose website declares, "Our public relations team is made of expert storytellers."
They fail to mention that their stories are fiction.
I am a retired social worker who moved to Tucson in January 1976. I do not live in the Davis-Monthan contour zone, but do live near midtown Tucson, and most importantly, I cannot stand by when citizens are being bullied by the very military, which is supposed to be protecting all Americans.

New publisher should move Star toward center
I was hoping that with a new publisher on board the Star would somehow realign itself to the center — not left or right, but to the center — and be a periodical that would represent a variety of different viewpoints and not march to the same out-of-tune notes presently being sung by a majority of the media at large.
When you sing karaoke by yourself, it is usually off tune and shrill. If you seek a more harmonic approach, please try signing along with the rest of us, who at times may hit a variety of different notes but overall add to the melody being sung.

THE 2004 CAMPAIGN: BIOGRAPHY; Echoes of a 1972 Loss Haunt a 2004 Campaign
By TODD S. PURDUM
Published: September 24, 2004
It was the campaign that seemed to have everything. A rented mainframe computer and a sophisticated telephone voter list when typewriters and index cards were still common. A legion of eager volunteers, including a bike-riding boarding school student named Caroline Kennedy. Plenty of cash, celebrity supporters and a compelling first-time candidate: John Kerry.
But in the end, the 1972 Democratic campaign for Congress in the Fifth District of Massachusetts, stretching from the gritty old mill towns of Lawrence and Lowell to the upscale suburbs of Lexington and Concord, lacked one big thing: voters. Mr. Kerry lost to his Republican opponent in a district George McGovern carried, after a bitter battle in which his antiwar protests were attacked, his patriotism was questioned and he himself was derided as an elitist careerist. His political future seemed shattered before it began.
Months later, a sympathetic profile in The Worcester Telegram summed up Mr. Kerry's predicament on a day he had been doing errands, ran out of gas, then headed to the car wash. ''All of a sudden, water started washing over my shoes!'' Mr. Kerry explained in the article. ''The car was filling up with water! Water was coming out of every orifice! I could see the headlines: 'John Kerry, Former Congressional Candidate, Drowned in Car Wash.'''
The article continued: ''Obviously, John Kerry is a loser. Only losers have days like this.'' And Mr. Kerry himself offered a terse assessment: ''How did I feel when I lost? Lousy. I guess you learn from it. I'm not sure just what yet.''
Thirty-two years later, Mr. Kerry is once again surrounded by many of the loyalists from that first campaign -- the only one he has ever lost. He is once again on the defensive over his Vietnam War service and his antiwar record, once again facing a Republican opponent who mocks him as an out-of-touch elitist, once again fighting to fulfill his campaign's early promise.
So what are the lessons Mr. Kerry learned so long ago? To hit back hard when attacked? To bide his time and ration the early passion that made him such an outspoken opponent of the Vietnam War and such an eloquent, appealing candidate, but also a target of criticism? Perhaps a bit of both. From that election to this, his career has been marked more by cautious calculation than bold strokes, and to a striking degree, his vulnerabilities then remain his vulnerabilities now.
Mr. Kerry's supporters acknowledge the parallels between 1972 and 2004. But they also insist that he long ago learned the lessons of that searing defeat -- lessons that sent him on a slow, patient detour to law school and work as a prosecutor and private lawyer, before his return to politics and his election as lieutenant governor of Massachusetts in 1982 and senator two years later.
''I think it helped John enormously that he did not get elected,'' said Thomas Vallely, a fellow Vietnam veteran who worked for Mr. Kerry then and is working for him now. ''If he'd gone from Congress, from being a star, right to some higher job, he wouldn't have had the political skills he acquired going to law school, becoming a prosecutor, running for lieutenant governor and Senate,'' all in campaigns that seemed to involve what Mr. Vallely called ''near-death experiences.''
''Did he learn in Lowell, always fight back?'' Mr. Vallely asked. ''Yes, but John's always been a pretty good fighter.'' And, he added, ''Kerry's cooler now. He's cooler. I mean, he's less -- he's more skilled. He's not nervous.''
Dan Payne, another aide in that first race, said that Mr. Kerry had developed ''a kind of toughness that allows him to take hits,'' and that he was ''willing to go through these very difficult plunges in his fortunes.''
Mr. Kerry does not have 10 weeks left until Election Day, much less 10 months or 10 years to cross the finish line. So an examination of the 1972 race, and his reaction to it, offers fresh insights into the tasks he faces now, and his ability to accomplish them.
''I took a shellacking,'' he said in an interview this summer, before stopping to correct himself. ''A shellacking's the wrong word. I took a shellacking in the sense that I couldn't make it happen. But I didn't take a shellacking, because we accomplished a hell of a lot -- young kids, 26, 27 years old, putting this thing together without any political expertise.'' And, he added, ''sadly, not being quite aware of what was happening to us in the final weeks. If I knew then what I know about things today, I'm not sure I would have ever done it.''
Wowing the Crowd
Mr. Kerry had first considered a race for Congress two years earlier, just after he was released from active duty in the Navy in the winter of 1970. The district he eyed was the Third, stretching across the western suburbs of Boston from Fitchburg to Newton. But by the time he decided to explore challenging the hawkish Democratic incumbent, Philip J. Philbin, there was already a clear front-runner: the Rev. Robert F. Drinan, the Jesuit dean of Boston College Law School, who had become a prominent opponent of the war.

It isn't just the grocery-anchored centers that star in today's retail shopping center format playbill. Sharing the spotlight — and overshadowing the struggling big-box centers — are open-air extensions to enclosed malls, hybrid outdoor centers that feature a mix of power and lifestyle tenants, and town center projects that incorporate a mix of uses from residential and office to hotel and medical.
What gives these formats their edge is the strength of the tenant lineup. And there is no denying the power that supermarkets wield.

text: Hello Josy, I hope you were able to figure out the problem and shed some light on the subject as my XG-1 is doing the very same thing. New batteris, film loaded, button turned on...the b.c. doesn't work.. anyway...here's hoping. Thanks Josy05-03-2009, 09:35 AM I'm having problems with my Minolta XG-1, and I really hope someone could help me fix the problems. I have a Minolta XG-1, which hasn't been used for a long time. A little while ago I became interested in SLR photography so I decided to shoot some photos with it. Now, I've refreshed the batteries and I've put a new film in. I've set the settings to automatic and standard, but the film-advance lever won't go further than 30 degrees while it should go up to 130 degrees. In other words, the lever blocks and prevents me from advancing to the next photo. (Note: it's a new film and advancing from S to 1 (on the counter) is not possible). The required batteries are A76, but I've read that you also could use a similar battery (like L1154, AG13, LR44). At the moment I'm using L1154 batteries. I really hope that someone could help me because I look forward to shooting some nice pics with this nostalgic apparatus.

Gently hugs Numpty...and moves all sharp spinny things out of her way
I haven't got a clue, but I'm sure someone will come up with an answer. Sorry you are going through this, let us know what the doc says. HUGS
Hey all
Was wondering if anyone had ever had an issue with Bone Marrow Depression while taking Amytriptyline?
I was on it for a month for my headaches but the whole while kept going to the doctor about a really sore throat. He first thought Glandular fever then oral thrush but it never got any better with any treatment he gave me.
When he thought it might glandular fever he tested my blood and my WBC was really low, so he thought it was an infection but it came back up again within a week.
The last two times I've had blood taken they had trouble getting my arm to stop bleeding quickly afterwards and the other week there I banged my finger on a cupboard door (cause I'm real smart like that) and bled out through two bandaids before it would stop.
Anyway, I came of the Amytriptyline for a couple of weeks because it was causing constipation and bad bleeding down there (sorry TMI) and I didn't realise that my sore throat had gone away.
My headaches started again and I asked to be put back on it with Movicol to help my digestive system but the sore throat has come back within just two days. ~frowns and grumps~
So I read something about bone marrow depression and wondered if that might be it?
Am seeing the doctor tomorrow anyway (if I can get an appointment) but just wondered if anyone else had had a similar problem?
C x
Numpty:- (num-p-tee) dialect, chiefly Scot, ~n. 1. a bumbling fool: one who is intellectually challenged. 2. widely known in Scotland as an MSP (Member of Scottish Parliament).

Oh look ... a cookie
Bone Marrow Depression is one of the more common side effects of Elavil (Amitriptyline hydrochloride). The other side effects include: Blurred vision, bowel problems, breast enlargement (in males and females), constipation, dry mouth, hair loss, heart attack, high body temperature, problems urinating, rash, seizure, stroke, swelling of the testicles, water retention.
Bone marrow depression, or myelosuppression, is caused mainly by drugs and radiation therapy. When this happens, the bone marrow is unable to manufacture the needed RBCs, WBCs, or platelets with the following results:
* A reduction in the production of RBCs can cause a serious form of anemia called aplastic anemia.
* A reduction of WBCs causes a condition called leukopenia, which leaves a person open to many infections.
* A reduction in the production of platelets is called thrombocytopenia, leaving a person at high risk for hemorrhage.
It sounds as if you might be having a reduction in the production of platelets (thrombocytopenia). Has your doctor discussed this possibility with you or has he tested your platelet count? It is possible to have more than one effect (leukopenia and thrombocytopenia). I would suggest that you speak with your doctor again in order to determine what, exactly, is happening and what can be done about it. Prompt treatment is usually necessary.
Please let us know what your doctor says and what treatment is prescribed!
Peace and Blessings
Look For The Good and Praise It!

Comment of the day
Thoughts on testing from Lee_GH:
Something I think is worth pointing out regarding testing is that just about every racing category on the planet has begun to either ban or severely limit testing over the past five to six years so the testing restrictions are not just an F1 thing.
On the whole I actually think the testing ban has been good for F1, Its prevented those who can afford to test gaining massive advantages over those who can?������t.
Ross Brawn said a few years back that the biggest advantage Ferrari had in the early 2000s over other teams was that they did twice as much testing as any other team. He even spoke about how in late 2003 they had Luca Badoer and Felipe Massa testing during F1 race weekends in order to catch up to Williams, McLaren and Renault who had pulled ahead of them.
Something to consider also now is tyres. People complained last year how races got boring when everyone figured out how to use the tyres, Well bring in testing and they would figure out the tyres a lot sooner so we may end up seeing more boring races.
Also everyone praised Sauber last year for having a good car and maintaining it throughout the season, If testing was allowed and the big teams were able to spend days testing and Sauber was unable to spend money on testing they likely would have been well behind by mid-season, Something that was often seen with mid-field teams when we had testing.
Based on following F1 for about 35 years I can pretty much guarantee that bringing testing back would see the gaps between teams rise again and that midfield teams would once again be a few seconds off the front runners which would only hurt the quality of the racing.
Also its not as if we actually get to see anything from testing anyway, I?������d much rather all the focus be put on the race weekends which are after all way more important.

Don't miss a story. Like us on Facebook. Like Dallas News' Facebook Page
The Master Executive Council for the Air Line Pilots Association at American Eagle Airlines rejected a proposed contract Wednesday that would have traded concessions for new, larger airplanes and the ability to move eventually to pilot jobs at parent American Airlines.
"The vote today was about the future of Eagle pilots and the regional airline pilot profession," MEC chairman William Sprague said in the union's announcement.
"The pilots negotiated and signed a concessionary agreement during the recent bankruptcy, and management asked us soon after AAG exited bankruptcy for additional, significant concessions," Sprague stated.
"Our pilots decided they were not willing to work for less than the company is already paying our peers," he said. "We will now begin the process of assisting our pilots in identifying alternative career options within the industry."
Had the MEC members accepted the tentative agreement, it would been sent out to American Eagle pilots for a vote up or down.
Representatives of airline management including parent American Airlines Group (AAG)had warned the pilots that the carrier could become Comair II without changes in the pilot contract. That warning refers to Comair, a regional carrier bought by Delta Air Lines in 1999 and permanently grounded by Delta in 2012.
In its announcement Wednesday, ALPA referenced those threats.
"Company representatives made it clear that should the pilots and management fail to reach a deal, the company will not entertain future negotiations," the ALPA MEC stated. "Negotiators for AAG also stated numerous times that if a deal fails to be ratified, American Eagle Airlines will be downsized continually until it is small enough to liquidate."
It added: "During the coming days, ALPA will be working with the American Eagle pilots to help them find placement with other airlines. ALPA representatives will ask management for their timetable regarding the liquidation of American Eagle. Stay engaged as we move forward. The need for unity is more critical now than any other time in our history."

The Mr. Anaheim column a few weeks ago answered a question about the old Anaheim Drive-In, at Lemon Street and the 91 freeway, that closed down in the mid-1990s. The recent heat wave got me nostalgic for those outdoor movies on warm summer nights.
My wife and I took our 4-year-old daughter to her first-ever big screen movie (Disney's "Monsters University") at Anaheim GardenWalk last week. A pleasant experience, for sure, but I couldn't help but think how nice it would have been for her to be outdoors, seeing it on a giant screen.
It got me thinking about summertime in Anaheim. Here are a few memories – and thoughts about things to do in Anaheim:
•My best memories of summer in Anaheim are all about the parks, including John Marshall Park. My brother, David, and I would arrive with our friend Mark before the park even opened to play a game of catch or over the line.
When the instructors/coaches arrived, we rushed for the best carom board games – to help set them up so we could be the first to play. Then it was time for more baseball. Then lunch. Then more baseball until it was finally time to go home for dinner and a decent night's sleep so that we could, well, get up early the next day for more baseball. On weekends, we took a break from the park, only to play Wiffle Ball in the driveway.
The parks and rec. program isn't what it used to be with so many budget cutbacks. No longer can kids ride their bikes to their local park for a full day of events. But there are plenty of great recreation programs available throughout the summer – from gymnastics and dance, to traditional sports to arts and crafts. Check out anaheim.net/ezrecconnect.
•My first memories of swimming were at Pearson Park and Anaheim High School. The pool at Pearson has since moved, and Anaheim's pool is empty – last I saw, it had an old tire and shopping cart in the deep end.
But there are still opportunities to take a dip in Anaheim. The city contracts with the YMCA to run lessons at Pearson Park and at Canyon High School in Anaheim Hills. Swim classes are open to everybody from tiny tots to adults. We took our daughter for her first swim lessons at just 18 months to Pearson. It was nice to see the tradition continue and watch her learning to paddle and float just like her mom and dad did in Anaheim more than 30 years ago.
•The first place I ever played disc golf (or as we called it, Frisbee golf) was at Twila Reid Park on the 3100 block of West Orange Avenue in west Anaheim. The 18-hole course allows players to leisurely stroll through the 27-acre park (If you play like Mr. Anaheim, it's more like a lot of running around to chase after your wayward Frisbee).
The course is still there and known regionally by dedicated players. To be honest, the course isn't ranked particularly highly. The website discgolfscene.com gives it a "C" grade. But if you're an Anaheim resident, it's worth a few hours of your time to experience a fun summer day in the park.
•Playing in the Anaheim High School band in the mid-1980s, I got to play a lot of memorable venues, including the historic Cook Auditorium on campus. But one place that truly stood out was the stage at Pearson Park Amphitheatre.
The 2,000-seat theater under the stars was built in 1927. I think of it as the mini-Greek Theatre for Anaheim. There's nothing quite like sitting under the stars on a warm summer night, enjoying a play or some live music. Upcoming shows include a taiko drum show, a magic show and the Anaheim Ballet.
If you're a Beatles fan, I highly recommend the Fab Four tribute band, set to close out the summer season at the amphitheater on Sept. 28. I took my mom to see them at Pearson a few summers ago and felt like I saw The Beatles show I'd never been able to see live. They are that good.
So, those are just a few of the places and memories that I think make Anaheim so special during the summer.
I know it's a way-too-short list, so write me and tell me about the places you go in Anaheim that make summers memorable, and I'll try to share them on this page in coming weeks. In the meantime, enjoy the season and try to stay cool.
Contact the writer: If you have questions or comments for Mr. Anaheim, contact him at email@example.com.

Is Everyone On The Campaign Trail Getting Sick?
What can the candidates do to stay healthy on the campaign trail?
ABC Chief Health and Medical Correspondent Dr. Richard Besser told IE: "They are constantly meeting people. They are shaking hands, touching people, all of the time. If you think about how cold and flu are transmitted, that is the perfect way."
Some days it seems that just about everyone running for president is feeling under the weather.
Besser said: "My advice, if you are stick stay home. Wash your hands. Use an alcohol sanitizer and get enough sleep. I know that the candidates can't do any of those things."
Remember Hillary Clinton's epic coughing fit?
Marco Rubio struggled with a strained voice recently.
At the end of last Thursday's debate, Ted Cruz extended his hand but Rubio didn't want to shake it. People thought he was being rude but that wasn't the case.
"Marco is sick," his campaign tweeted. "That's why he didn't shake the other candidates' hands after the debate.
Cruz was feeling so under the weather, he had to cancel events last weekend.
Saturday Night Live made mischief when Larry David, who was playing Bernie Sanders, refused to shake hands with a supporter.

NBA refs to wear patches the rest of the season to honor Greg Willard
The NBA lost one of its most respected referees when Greg Willard died after a battle with pancreatic cancer.
Rick Carlisle, president of the NBA coaches' association, has been a staunch supporter of research, testing and treatment of pancreatic cancer. He lost close friend and mentor Chuck Daly to the disease in 2009.
"I'm a big advocate of pancreatic cancer research," Carlisle said. "We've all known about Greg Willard's situation for many months. We followed the situation closely and we're all very saddened that he's passed.
"The hope is that this will bring more attention to one of the most aggressive and under-screened diseases that we have. Greg was one of the top referees and a good person – and highly respected. And he's a crusader on this mission. The hope is that more and more people will take note of how important it is."
Starting with Wednesday's games, all NBA refs will wear a No. 57 patch (Greg Willard's number) on their shirts.
Ron Garretson wore Willard's No. 57 at Tuesday's game.

It was a secret office romance that resulted in a wedding four years later.
They came to yoga in 2000, in hopes of saving Julissa's life from the stress of the New York fashion industry. It was love at first practice. It did not only save Julissa's life but was also a gateway to new life experiences and transformations that neither could have imagined before that first yoga class.

The NYSE Big StartUp SM, a nationwide jobs-growth initiative designed to connect young companies and entrepreneurs with corporate America, was launched today by NYSE Euronext (NYX) in collaboration with Accion, Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO) and The Startup America Partnership. The program calls on the nation's corporate community to lend support, experience and resources to startups and small companies to improve procurement, networking, business development, training, marketing and information sharing. Yelp (NYSE: YELP), LinkedIn (NYSE: LNKD) and Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) are among the first corporations to participate in this endeavor. In addition to information and events to be provided as part of the initiative, a microfinance program called the Accion NYSE Job Growth Fund, started with a $1.5 million commitment by NYSE Euronext, will provide small businesses and startups with the capital and support they need to grow. The NYSE Big StartUp is unique in its comprehensive approach to promoting job growth through small businesses, startups and entrepreneurs. The program helps to promote the increased demand for goods and services that these growing companies need, while also mobilizing the corporate sector to contribute knowledge, expertise and funding where it can be critical to job creation. "America is looking for ways to create jobs and we believe part of the answer lies in nurturing the small business community," said Duncan L. Niederauer, Chief Executive Officer, NYSE Euronext. "Business leaders cannot wait for Washington to have all the answers, so our idea, The NYSE Big StartUp, is aimed at encouraging bigger companies to help small companies. NYSE Euronext is uniquely positioned at the center of capital markets to bring our community and partners together to fuel job growth. We are calling on established companies to direct their purchasing power to small companies. In addition, we are launching new training, mentoring and education programs for entrepreneurs, as well as the Accion NYSE Job Growth Fund to help ensure that capital is available to those least able to access it from traditional sources." Accion NYSE Job Growth Fund Accion is the largest microfinance lending network in the U.S. and has provided loans and support to hundreds of thousands of enterprising individuals in the U.S. The Accion NYSE Job Growth Fund officially launches today through a $1.5 million commitment from NYSE Euronext, and is now open for corporate contributors and small business applicants. The funding will be leveraged at a 4.5:1 ratio, enabling an even greater impact. Information on the Accion NYSE Job Growth Fund can be accessed and donations can be made at http://us.accion.org/. "Small businesses are critical to job growth and to our economy's recovery," said Gina Harman, President and CEO of Accion, The U.S. Network. "At Accion, we have been working alongside determined, hard-working business owners for over 20 years, creating innovative ways to remove key obstacles to their success and ensure they have the access to capital and the business support programs they need. We applaud NYSE Euronext for initiating The NYSE Big StartUp and urge corporations to contribute to the fund so that we can provide access to opportunity for the millions of small businesses in the U.S. capable of generating new jobs." Entrepreneurs' Organization The Entrepreneurs' Organization (EO), a global network of more than 8,000 business owners in 40 countries, serves as a catalyst that enables entrepreneurs to learn and grow from their peers' ideas and experiences. EO's role in the NYSE Big StartUp will include special focus on its Accelerator program, which through events and other outreach efforts fuels growth of earlier-stage entrepreneurs, provides mentors and training for EO's broader pool of entrepreneurs, and connects the EO network with the corporate supply chains.

They don't have to be flats, but heels that aren't taller than 4 inches please. I'm already kind of tall and I don't feel comfortable wearing sky high heels."
Sabee had a similar issue, saying, "I broke the arch of my foot a few years ago and I have not
been able to walk around in high heels. I know platforms have been the in thing for the last few years, but I can't even walk in them. I just want some nice stylish heels that I can wear out without breaking my ankles or the arch of my feet. I love all the bright colored suede heels this seasons, but I have not been able to find a wedge or anything that isn't just straight FLAT! I love my flats, but I would love to kick it up a notch or two. I wouldn't mind wearing low wedges or even kitten heels. I'm just so tired of flats and sandals. HELP ME!"
Fashion Bomb to the rescue!
We compiled a bevy of kitten and reasonably low yet cute heels for those who are height averse.
Low, Mid, and Kitten Heels:
We uncovered both pumps and sandals, with heels measuring 4 inches or less:
Low Wedges:
No withering heights with these! We found quite a few stylish picks, like Sam Edelman's Sophie Low Wedge Sandals:
A few Flats (just for fun):
If you're tall and statuesque, there's nothing wrong with a chic flat sandal. We enumerated some strappy beauts in bright, on trend hues:
Happy Shopping!

Labour is at a fork in the road. The road it takes could decide so much about the nation's future... Without an avowedly pro-European Labour party, not only will we fail ourselves, worse, we will fail the country.
Theresa May, we're now aware, is a "bloody difficult woman". Or so Ken Clarke says anyway. He was caught on camera discussing the Tory party leadership candidates with his old chum Sir Malcolm Rifkind, on Tuesday. He chuckled as he added: "But then you and I worked for Margaret Thatcher..."
The constant bickering between and within the great Houses, led by the Brexiteers, could in the end result in the devastation of our economy to the massive detriment of everyday people, while the main characters continue to enjoy their extravagant lives.
George Osborne and Michael Gove have shown that they are not averse to adopting Labour's policies where it suits their image as one nation conservatives. We are more than prepared to work cross-party to achieve change, if that is their genuine intent. But as is too often true with this Government, this seems another case of rhetoric not being reflected in reality.
"Unelectable", "inexperienced", "would lead the party over a precipice", the efforts of the Labour establishment to discredit Jeremy Corbyn's leadersh...
This week, the Home Secretary launched the new National Crime Agency, along with a Serious and Organised Crime Strategy. Only last week, Transparency International published the Anti-Corruption Scorecard - an assessment of the UK's performance on a range of corruption indicators. If the Government delivers on its new strategy, the scorecard will soon look dated.
Do you know Bilderberg? Nope? Well given the dark cloak of secrecy shrouding the shadowy annual conflab don't feel bad for not getting the memo. For the uninitiated, each year the world's elite bankers, royalty, parliamentarians and CEOs self-imprison themselves in some of the most luxurious hotels in the world for a weekend of, well, who knows...?
Last night I ... tuned into the BBC's coverage of the House of Lords debate on the Justice and Security Bill via Democracy Live's excellent website. (Yeah, I know, online parliamentary debates are the new rock 'n' roll). Anyway, here's the short version of what happened: the government won, human rights lost.
The bill, under this light, can be seen as an effective and convenient way to get rid of claims which shines scrutiny over British intelligence agencies. This will no doubt be a win for the security establishment as it will become harder for accountability and transparency to be reached amongst claims against them
The Legal aid Bill gave the coalition government the most defeats of any bill in parliament for the last sixty years. In the end government only won by one vote in the house of Lords. A vote they would not have had if Lord Newton was still around to vote.
Last week, lawyers for the police were partly successful in pushing a case concerning what has been described as the "sexual and psychological abuse of campaigners for social justice ... by undercover police officers" into a secret tribunal, from which little if any evidence of just how this was allowed to happen will emerge.
Wednesday sees the formal dispatch from the House of Lords of what the wilder critics have named my "Secret Courts Bill". The Bill's passage has so far aroused great passion and debate - as any Bill which seeks to deliver the twin imperatives of justice and security must always do.
To appeal to a broader electorate, Cameron needs people in his Cabinet in the mould of Ken Clarke. But keeping Ken in Cabinet for his easy and affable way with the voters is insulting to him and to many of the views he holds.
Julian Assange is accused of rape. I thought this whole 'it was only sex without a condom!' thing was cleared up by now, but I've still been seeing tweets to that effect over the weekend. You can read a list of the accusations here, but to summarise: he's accused of holding a woman down in order to have sex with her, penetrating a woman in her sleep, and having sex without a condom against the woman's wishes.
People are bonkers. I know this. I witness it on a daily basis and have learnt in recent years that 'normal' is not something that happens in humanity.
In 1942 William Beveridge, an economist, published the 'Beveridge report which identified five "Giant Evils" in society: squalor, ignorance, want, idl...


text: Politics 29 January 1999 The New Statesman Interview - Rhodri Morgan Wales's very own La Pasionara, full of flash and fire, defies the Labour machine and takes on Tony B Sign up for our weekly email * A single strand of purple and silver Christmas decoration hangs from the door of Rhodri Morgan's campaign office near Cardiff Castle; the remainder spills from a carrier bag dumped just inside the door. It is difficult to avoid the sense that for Morgan the party is over, that this large, loud and hugely popular man who has twice in a year taken on the official Downing Street candidate to lead the Welsh Assembly is about to come second again. Morgan himself says I'm wrong, that his all-volunteer campaign team is recording an 80-20 lead in telephone interviews with Labour Party members in Wales. But ordinary party members will not determine who leads them in the new Welsh Assembly. The decision will be made by a three-section electoral college whose intricacy would have delighted the architects of Tammany Hall. In the constituency section, no one seriously disputes that Morgan is well ahead (though perhaps not by as much as 80-20), but the news is not so good in the trade union section. The engineering union, with the biggest single block vote, will support Alun Michael, the Secretary of State for Wales and Morgan's opponent. Though the majority at a delegate meeting was only six to four, the rules say that Michael must get all the votes. The Transport and General Workers Union has also declared for Michael. The picture is more confused at the GMB but, like the T&G, it will not hold a membership ballot. Only Unison, of the big four unions, will ballot its members and, if Morgan loses that, he's finished. If he wins, however, the issue may be decided by the third section of the college: Labour MPs and MEPs and candidates for the Welsh Assembly. And, given that Morgan is well behind among the 39 MPs and MEPs but well ahead among the 40 candidates selected for first-past-the-post seats in the assembly, the whole election could hinge on the votes of 20 people. These are the candidates on the supplementary list who will gain seats by proportional voting rules on 6 May. They are all controlled by the Labour machine and, since it is impossible to imagine the party placing more than ten such list candidates in a 60-seat assembly, one wonders why there are as many as 20. So it is difficult to contest Morgan's verdict that the rules for this marathon contest "are old Labour, not new Labour, pre-John Smith not post-John Smith". They are certainly less democratic than the rules that gave Tony Blair the leadership of the party. Morgan rails against the "machine politics, massive majorities, gerontocracy, abuse of power and culture of arrogance" which, over decades, have impoverished Wales both economically and culturally. "There is a struggle for the soul of the Labour Party in Wales," he says, "between the machine politicians who cluster around the Secretary of State - the Labour local government leaders and the people who get the MBEs and the jobs on the quangos - and the grass roots or those who want to bring the grass roots in. The quango people are quaking in their boots and the same applies to Freemasons. People who are both on quangos and who are Freemasons are quaking in both boots." His support comes from "people who have spent all their careers trying to break up dinosaur-style Welsh politics and often paid a heavy price for that". This is a battle not between two candidates, but between two views of how devolution should unfold: Wales has a choice between La Pasionara or the low-key but effective cabinet minister who shares many Welsh doubts about devolution. What is said in public (or semi-public by the spin-doctors) concentrates mainly upon style since, bizarrely, neither candidate is allowed to issue a policy manifesto - policy is determined by yet another part of the Labour Party's re-oiled machinery. But the personal line of attack is clear enough: Rhodri Morgan is a loose cannon, a talker not a doer, when Wales needs a subtle administrator, able to mesh its new political institutions with the old ones back in Whitehall and Westminster. This is a view that hisses around the Cardiff cocktail-party circuit, where holders of mighty offices whisper that Morgan would run Wales like a branch of the National Union of Students. Alun Michael is all that stands between Wales and political infantilism. Occasionally, a well-dressed woman will draw you into a corner and suggest that, secretly, she hopes Rhodri will win. As I display this charge-sheet to Morgan, who will be 60 next birthday, his carefully rehearsed posture of calm slips just a little. "Alun and I entered the House of Commons at the same time. I could point out that at the time I had been the highest-paid civil servant in Wales, running all the European Community programmes here. Alun was running a youth club in Cardiff. But if I'd said that I'd rightly have been regarded as an appalling snob." Nor can he see force in the argument that, compared with Michael, he lacks ministerial experience, since both men backed the experience-free Blair against Margaret Beckett for the party leadership. Despite his background, Morgan's style is anything but that of the civil servant. He has promised a freedom of information code ahead of the delayed legislation in the UK. Asked about the future of the monarchy, he replies briskly that it must "Scandinavianise or die". Asked about his country's feelings for the Prince of Wales, he can't be bothered to duck and replies: "It's not a particularly strong relationship." He declares that we have entered "the most important three-month period in the history of Wales". There is, he insists, "absolutely no desire for independence" in Wales, but all the difference in the world between what he offers and an assembly led by someone who primarily represents the link with London and the obsolete office of Secretary of State. His rival offers "followership not leadership" and the stream of cabinet colleagues who have come from London to support Michael's campaign is simply more evidence of it. This is the Rhodri Morgan his supporters love. Jan Morris, the writer and historian of Wales, describes him as "full of flash and fire". "What we need," she says, "is a figurehead of the flamboyant Welsh kind, the Lloyd George kind perhaps, bold, outrageous, entertaining, unconventional, moving. Can you imagine Alun Michael in this theatrically demanding role?" But those who calculate with greater circumspection, whether the portly power-brokers of Cardiff or the worn farmers of mid and west Wales, are not looking for theatre. They want money well spent and relief from prolonged economic distress. Many of them detest the idea of more politicians per square mile. Morgan agrees that the economy is easily the most important question and presents himself as something of an expert: in his Welsh Office days, he helped bring to Wales the driver and vehicle licensing centre, the Royal Mint and a chunk of the Inland Revenue. He is also experienced in luring big foreign investors, where Wales enjoyed some notable successes in the 1980s. But there are problems here with which Welsh politics has scarcely grappled. How come a country so good at attracting big investors has stayed so poor, and indeed become relatively poorer? The Conservative Party in Wales has not enjoyed a majority at any election since the introduction of the secret ballot in 1868 ("it's a relationship based on trust and understanding - we don't trust them and they don't understand us," says Morgan). So shouldn't Labour accept some responsibility for this most critical of failures? And why should anyone believe that the latest bag of Euro-loot, which will come with the agreement that its first objective is to help those on the poverty line in mid and west Wales, will be any better spent? Morgan lacks a wholly convincing answer. He attacks the Tory characterisation of Wales as a place for low-wage, deregulated jobs, but insists that he is pro-business. His current line is that Wales should learn from the Celtic tiger, Ireland, to attract "clusters" of related businesses, rather than place its faith in mega-deals, like the half-complete LG silicon chip plant, now undermined by troubles in faraway Korea. He speaks of directing more resources towards "community enterprise, local enterprise or indigenous firms", but it's not entirely clear how. There's also haziness at the heart of Morgan's fiery position on quangos - it is irresistible as an assault upon a decayed political oligopoly, but perhaps naive in its confidence that the democratic structures that preceded quangocracy could easily reassume the burden again today. When Morgan proposes to cut the number of quangos in Wales from over a hundred to "fewer than half a dozen", you have to question the detail. His ideas on the health service, for example, which hosts a quarter of all quangos, appear to involve relocating power to general practitioners and local government committees, neither of them triumphant exemplars of open, democratic politics. Tellingly, he has no plans to demolish the superquango that will allocate economic grants. Morgan is being forced to think beyond the rhetorical simplicities of the democratic populism his supporters adore. Those who know him best say that he is indeed ready to make the adaptation of style necessary to hold high office, but that Wales still needs the decisive emotional and intellectual break he offers. Wales, they point out, is a country that has never been able to make up its mind about England: Scotland has its own farmers' union, Wales has two - one a subdivision of the UK National Farmers' Union, the other a Wales-only breakaway body. "The other side represents the view that, after 6 May, we're still very much part of the same system," says Morgan. "My view is that we have to take our own decisions and be as creative as we can with the resources available." It is a pitiable paradox that a judgement on this historic question will be so heavily stained by voices from smoke-filled rooms. Subscribe from just £1 per issue More

Pentagon Spokesman's Regular Tuesday Briefing
DoD News Briefing Tuesday, October 24, 2000 - 1:30 p.m. EDT Presenter: Rear Adm. Craig R. Quigley, DASD PA Q: What do you hear from the U.S. officials in Pyongyang regarding what commitments the North Koreans may have made on curtailing or eliminating their ballistic missile program? Quigley: Yeah. We don't have a readout yet here in the building, Bob. I think the goal is probably to let the secretary of State come back to the United States and brief the president first before there is any readout of the activities there. I can't characterize it for you quite yet, in any way. I'm sorry. We don't have any - we did have a couple of people with the secretary's party, but we don't have any feedback yet. Q: Has there been any troop movement or anything unusual or different that you've noticed in the North Koreans? Quigley: No. No, not at all. Q: Nothing has changed? Quigley: Mm-mm. (Negative.) Thank you.

While millions of Americans are digging out from the latest winter storm President Obama is thinking up more ways to spend our money. He wants a billion dollars for a climate change "resilience fund." He had to travel across the country to California to get away from all of the snow and ice to push this new global warming plan.
President Obama will pitch a new $1 billion climate change resilience fund during a visit Friday to California.
The fund, which would need to be approved by Congress, is intended to help communities dealing with negative weather that's the result of climate change.
Obama is touting the fund during a trip to California, which has been devastated by a drought that is threatening the Central Valley's agriculture production and has led Gov. Jerry Brown (D) to call on Californians to conserve water.
During a call with reporters on Thursday evening, the assistant to the president on science and technology, John Holdren, said, without any doubt, the severe drought plaguing California and a number of other states across the country is tied to climate change.
"Weather practically everywhere is being caused by climate change," Holdren said. (Read More)
Climate change didn't cause the drought in California, but the Democrats created the crisis it's turned into.
In related news, Senator Mark Begich (D-Alaska) says that every day buildings and houses fall into the ocean because of climate change. Too bad Washington, DC doesn't fall into the ocean.

If it was easy, would you move out of the US for a better life?
To a place with better opportunities? Better government?
I don't think the US is where the "American Dream" is..not for a lot of us anyway so Where would you move?
I would. And we may once we have the means. We'd really have to do some hard research before doing so, though. It'd probably be somewhere in Europe.
If obama gets reelected, i plan on hightailing it to canada. That idiot needs to get out of office. x_x.
IDK, I think about that often. More than likely we would move.
I dunno, thats a good question! Maybe if I had some family going with me!
I couldn't agree more! I wish I could just up and move, but I cant, bc of my kids
Quoting crystalplus1:
If obama gets reelected, i plan on hightailing it to canada. That idiot needs to get out of office. x_x.
If you can find me a better place, I may consider it. But I don't think there is one. Sure, Europe is nice, but then you pay 70% of your taxes, get state healthcare, have mandated civil service, and their economy is crap.
I'd be hard pressed to find somewhere else I'd want to live.
It's something that I've mentioned to my husband, but he's not too keen on the idea, and my kids gave a very vocal, "no way".
Yes I would. I loved Italy and Spain and both are great places to live.

By Nora Callahan, Northeastern PSA USAS Local 115
Adjuncts at Northeastern have just joined the latest group of contingent faculty to secure a tentative agreement on their first union contract! Students, adjuncts and community allies have been working together tirelessly for the past four years on this campaign. Through vocal support, persistence, and multiple actions, together we were able to pressure the University into a tentative agreement with the adjunct bargaining committee. We fought back against our administration and the famous union-busting law firm Jackson Lewis and won, in an amazing show of student-worker power.
As a result of this long and hard-fought campaign, Northeastern adjuncts will see significant raises. They will be compensated for classes cancelled on short notice. They will now have a formal process to address workplace conflicts and access to a professional development fund. A first contract is a huge hurdle. Our administration did all they could to stifle the union effort and exhaust these academic laborers, but we won after 4 years of campaigning and over 15 months of bargaining!
The adjuncts began organizing for their union underground four years ago supported by the work of the Progressive StudentAlliance, USAS Local #115, and members of our coalition, the Empower Adjuncts Community Coalition, made up of 15 other student groups. We have been standing by our adjuncts through the voting drive and through bargaining. We delivered letters, we paid visits to our deans, we held public office hours to highlight adjuncts' lack of offices and the lack of respect they receive from the administration. We showed up at bargaining sessions to let those at the bargaining table know who we support. We held teach-ins and did class wraps to let our peers know what was going on on their campus. We did flashmobs . We even occupied in our president's office building and blocked the train at our school's stop, arm in arm with community members, to say we will not accept low wages in our community.
Finally, early this semester the administration folded under threat of a strike, a student boycott and classes cancelled by supportive tenured professors. Northeastern is nothing without its students and the people who work to make our school successful. When we organize together we are powerful, and when we fight, we win!

THE company behind plans for the Wylfa Newydd nuclear power station were urged to "stay true to its promise" to maximise job opportunities for Anglesey residents.
Anglesey AM Rhun ap Iorwerth responded to Horizon Nuclear Power's announcement it would move to new headquarters in Gloucester by calling on the company to create "create employment now on the island" for those who want to commit to the project long-term.
He said: "I have always recognised the economic potential of the new Wylfa, but it is vital that Anglesey feels the economic benefits now."
Mr ap Iorwerth said that most of the staff in the current Gloucester HQ are working on the Wylfa development and the number is growing, although in time the HQ will also accommodate staff developing another power station at Oldbury.
He added: "Some recruitment has taken place for work on-site at Wylfa, and some workers from Anglesey are based in Gloucester; but with Horizon already employing well in excess of 100 staff on the project I have urged the company to take every opportunity to create employment now on the island, for those who want to commit long-term to the Wylfa project – including those who no doubt already have the right skills but have left the island due to a lack of employment opportunities.
"I have been in close contact with Horizon since my election and before then, and they know I will not rest in my determination to put the interests of the island, its workforce and the future prospects of our young people first."
Horizon Nuclear Power spokesman Richard Foxhall said: "We've already awarded 52 contracts to local companies and right now we're ramping up from 50 to 100 people working at the Wylfa Newydd site, including local contractors, as we enter a multimillion pound phase of ground investigations.
"The expansion at our current location allows us to keep the programme on track and deliver the associated growth in North Wales.
"The Anglesey workforce will far exceed those who will remain in Gloucester, with up to 6,000 people employed during construction and up to 1,000 once the station is operational."

Clichy - We must stay focused
Gael Clichy insists Arsenal must stay focused if they are going to challenge for the Premier League.
By James Riach
Last Updated: 27/10/09 11:08am
Arsenal defender Gael Clichy insists his team must stay focused in matches if they are going to challenge for the Premier League title.
The Gunners let a two-goal lead slip against West Ham on Sunday and left Upton Park with only a point after they dominated most of the game, with Carlton Cole and Alessandro Diamanti on the scoresheet for the home side.
France international Clichy believes Arsenal most improve small details and remain focused in games right until the final whistle in order to mount a title challenge.
"We were in control of the game, but it is not enough because we have to win games and stop losing points like this because it is a big disappointment," he said.
"We have the quality, it is just small details that make the difference and we know that.
"On set-pieces you have to be focused and referee decisions are not in our hands.
"The Premier League is really tough - even at 3-0 up you can concede a draw or lose the game.
"That shows you the level of the competition and the teams we are playing against.
"That is good for English football, but we should have won the game."
Arsenal take on Liverpool in the Carling Cup on Wednesday, looking to right the wrongs of Upton Park, and Clichy is looking forward to putting the weekend disappointment to the back of his mind.
"We know what we have done right and wrong," he added.
"When you make a mistake or have a bad game that the best way to forget it is to play as soon as possible.
"We have a big game on Wednesday in the Carling Cup against Liverpool, so we have to be focused on that and then of course Tottenham is a big derby for ourselves and for the fans."
