We were, er, conned. Well, sorta.

We were rather circumspect in reporting late last night that Julian Assange had been arrested while visiting a medical specialist, and indeed, now, rumours that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been arrested in London are "false," the whistleblower website said on Saturday UK time.
Indymedia UK had reported that Assange, the 41-year-old Australian who sparked a diplomatic row when he was granted asylum by Ecuador, was arrested while secretly visiting a medical clinic five minutes from the Ecuadorean Embassy in London.
"Sources close to this reporter have confirmed that Wikileaks founder and international fugitive Julian Assange has been arrested by Scotland Yard detectives at a private medical clinic located just a five minute drive from the Ecuadorean Embassy," Conal Urquhart wrote in an article posted on Friday.
But Wikileaks vehemently denied the story, tweeting that "Reports of Julian #Assange arrest are false and derive from a fabricated story."
"Such media smears are common," Wikileaks tweeted. "Reader beware."
Indymedia UK has since 'hidden' the spurious article about Assange's arrest, citing a breach of editorial guidelines. Assange has been holed up in the Ecuadorean Embassy in London since last June.
He entered the embassy in an attempt to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning on charges of sexual assault.
The charges reportedly stem from Assange having unprotected consensual sex with two Swedish women, which can be considered a crime in the Nordic country under certain circumstances.
Assange has refused to go, asserting that Sweden's record of sending persons wanted by the USA to America for detention or trial meant he would be laying himself open to "rendition" against his will, possibly to face execution, and has offered to meet Swedish prosecutors in London where he believes his deportation to the USA is less likely.
Assange rose to international prominence after Wikileaks began leaking and publishing hundreds of thousands of classified US military and diplomatic cables, many of them detailing atrocities committed by US troops and local authorities in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Assange has been hailed as a champion of free speech and transparency by progressives around the word, and even by some libertarians like US congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul. He was voted Australian Journalist of the Year in 2011 by his peers in the prestigious Walkley Awards, and Wikileaks has even been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
But he has also been vilified by reactionary forces, especially conservative American politicians, some of whom have called Wikileaks a "terrorist organization". Former Arkansas governor, presidential candidate and Fox News contributor Mike Huckabee has gone so far as to call for Assange's execution.

Hi, Yolly,
This is totally off-topic, but I don't know how else to ask you a question other than to put it as a comment under your most recent post. Please feel free to delete after reading. The following was recently posted in comments under an article on Alternet about the proliferation of guns in the U.S. I'm wondering if it is true? Distortion of truth? Out-and-out wrong? Thanks for any insight and facts you can provide.
"AUSTRALIA'S GUN LAW – OOPS
Everyone should be very careful about what your government wants you to NOT have.Australian Gun Law UpdateHere's a thought to warm some of your hearts….From: Ed Chenel, A police officer in Australia.Hi Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real figures from Down Under.It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by a new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by our own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars.The first year results are now in:Australia-wide, homicidesare up 6.2 percent,Australia-wide, assaults are up 9.6 percent;Australia-wide, armed robberiesare up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)In the state of Victoria alone,homicides with firearmsare now up 300 percent.(Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not — and criminals still possess their guns!)While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months — since the criminals are now guaranteed that their prey is unarmed. There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly, while the resident is at home.
"Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in 'successfully ridding Australian society of guns….' You won't see this on the American evening news or hear your governor or members of the State Assembly disseminating this information.The Australian experience speaks for itself. Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens.Take note Americans, before it's too late! Will you be one of the sheep to turn yours in?
WHY? You will need it.FORWARD TO EVERYONE ON YOUR EMAIL LIST. DON'T BE A MEMBER OF THE SILENT MAJORITY!!!! BE ONE OF THE VOCAL MINORITY WHO WON'T STAND FOR NONSENSE……"
Stephen "Yolly" Yolland says:
It appears to be total rubbish, see it de-bunked in a police forum here:
http://www.realpolice.net/forums/off-topic-70/31984-australian-gun-control-2.html
However it raises the issue of what HAS happened since the gun buy back – which I see even a died in the wool right winger like Rupert Murdoch has recommended to Americans to consider. I will attempt some research and come back to you …
James Cole says:
Why is this post called "We were conned?"
Because the report was shown to be a hoax. It flooded the Twittersphere, which is why we re-reported it, albeit with reservations. Hence "sorta".

Claude Mouchard est un poète, critique et traducteur français né en .

Biographie

Professeur émérite de littérature comparée à l'université Paris VIII, et rédacteur en chef-adjoint de la revue Po&sie, il a entre autres publié deux essais historico-critiques et plusieurs livres de poèmes.

Il a traduit, en collaboration, de nombreux ouvrages, en particulier des pièces de théâtre (Blanche-Neige de Robert Walser, Eli de Nelly Sachs) et des recueils de poèmes (entre autres Géographie III  d'Elizabeth Bishop, Osiris et Antique observatoire de Gōzō Yoshimasu, Poèmes de la bombe atomique de Sankichi Tōge, Une feuille noire dans la bouche de Ki Hyongdo). Maître d'œuvre de deux numéros spéciaux de la revue Po&sie, consacrés respectivement à la poésie japonaise contemporaine et à la poésie sud-coréenne contemporaine, il travaille actuellement à la publication, dans cette revue, de poètes du continent africain.

À propos  d'« œuvres-témoignages »: Qui si je criais...?

Interrogeant des œuvres (de Ossip Mandelstam, Paul Celan, Imre Kertész, Avrom Sutzkever, Nelly Sachs, Anna Akhmatova, Margarete Buber-Neumann, Varlam Chalamov, Sankichi Tōge, Masuji Ibuse, Shōhei Ōoka, Rithy Panh…) qui se confrontent, de façon contemporaine ou rétrospective, aux pires violences de masse du , Qui si je criais…?  montre comment, tout en étant « chargées d'un contenu et d'une transmission » également urgents, elles « osent ce qu'il y a de plus aléatoire et de plus imprévisible: le rapport littéraire au lecteur indéterminé, l'adresse poétique à ce que Mandelstam appelle l''interlocuteur' ». Mouchard s'efforce de faire voir comment de telles œuvres créent un « lien à travers le vide », lien que la lecture doit essayer de prolonger.

Poésie et « notes »

Tout en travaillant à accueillir et transposer, en français, une multiplicité  de voix, Mouchard affirme qu'il n'y a « rien, peut être de plus anti-identitaire que la poésie et la traduction de la poésie ». Papiers ! s'écrit ainsi au plus près de ce qui « arrive » – en l'occurrence des questions, sensations, réactions, du « mal imaginable » (physique, moral, social) lié à la présence de ce qu'il est convenu d'appeler un « sans-abri » dans les rues d'Orléans.  Depuis 2008, Mouchard a publié plusieurs séries de Notes dans les revues Po&sie et Fario, ainsi que sur le site Poezibao, qui transcrivent l'expérience – rencontre, récits, conversations, interrogations – vécue « avec Ousmane », un réfugié du Darfour, dans une œuvre qui interroge et déborde les limites linguistiques, génériques, politiques de l'écriture de poésie pour déboucher sur une « horizontalité sans bords », en refusant par sa typographie même toute forme de clôture: notes « hétérogènes et tressautantes – sous les impacts d'informations diverses et imprévues » ; vouées à « recréer » ce que Mouchard appelle « de l' 'ici-maintenant' », « de l' 'avec' », ou « de l' 'entre' », pour travailler « à un 'nous' problématique et vital ».

This stainless steel money clip is a great product. Instead of using a regular money clip you can use one that can have multiple uses like this one does. It can be used as a belt clip, bottle opener, money clip, keychain and a screw driver. It's made from stainless steel which means its very durable and wont rust.
I have had many money clips over the years . This one is one of the best . Definatly the best for the price . I will by a handful for gifts this year .
Works great , just need more money to put in it !
Works great not bulky and extremely handy.
Strong great money clip or key chain! Great product, and price. Excellent service! Thanks.

Four Testaments Proving That Cryptocurrency Has Changed the World for the Better
You've got used to the idea that money exists only when we can physically hold it in our hands. We pay with bank cards for everything, but there's always an opportunity to find an ATM and receive stacks of cash to please ourselves. It provides us with some sort of inner confidence that money is physically real. Perhaps that's why the vast majority of people treat the idea of cryptocurrency with suspicion and ignore the very fact of its existence. Really, how is it possible to control something that has no tangible connection with reality?
1. Cryptocurrency and Blockchain Means Better Security of Digital Wallets
The truth is that the world is changing and we miss out on its progress when rejecting this new system of payment and the opportunities confers. Nevertheless, the reality is that our bank cards are even more vulnerable than cryptocurrency, and we have to understand this fact. If at some point down the line, someone who has all the necessary skills is lucky enough to hack your bank account, there will be no recourse except a kickin' back with a bottle of Jack Daniels and fantasies about a blood-splattering revenge. However, such a scenario is impossible with cryptocurrency, as it's based on a decentralized platform called blockchain, which is independent and cannot be directly regulated by people. All the action within the system is scripted automatically, and it's impossible to change them. This is the new reality of the financial online security, and it's worthy of our trust.
While trading don't forget about safety!
Learn what wallets are the safest
Cryptocurrency changed the essence of financial operations by making them simple and transparent. For many people it might be pretty challenging, as the operations conducted with cryptocurrency cannot be cancelled or disputed, they are literally irrevocable. If the transaction took place, there's no opportunity to press "cntr+z", but from the other point of view, it can be also be perceived as a source of confidence.
2. Anonymity and Transparency in Payments and Transactions Contribute to Cybersecurity and Safety of Information on the Internet
Cryptocurrency prompted the world to change by supporting a positive force in the invisible, but cruel, fight for global cybersecurity and the safety of information on the Internet. Primarily, it's given people anonymity in their payments and transactions. It's a radically new technology for financial transactions because it's fully open and transparent. All operations can be traced and checked, but at the same time, the names might not be disclosed. There's no "login and password" in the accounts of the cryptocurrency users, moreover, they're free not to provide any personal information at all.
Also, due to the smart utilization of the blockchain technology that's based on the decentralization of the information, cryptocurrency can be regarded as immune to hacking. In other words, the online financial operations might finally become not only open but also safe. Its users have to tolerate a lot of new and uncommon features, but they're provided for the sake of security. It's necessary to have a specific level of access to conduct any transaction, and it might not be possible to receive such access in the conditions when all the activities can be easily traced. In the previous year, about 41% of Americans had a chance to estimate the talents and abilities of the hackers who were able to steal money from their credit cards. The cryptocurrency cannot be stolen in the same way; it gives a sense of safety to its owners.
Do you know the difference between centralized and decentralized exchanges? Check it!
3. Getting a Passive Income Using Custom-Tailored Coins
Due to blockchain technology, every user has a private key to their electronic wallet, and it's enough to conduct transactions of any kind. Undoubtedly, it's extremely important under the modern conditions as in the coins, people can get salaries for their work from any part of the world. The reason is that price of cryptocurrency increases in accordance with the growth of an industry in which it circulates. For example, in the Hacken Ecosystem, utilization of the cryptocurrency allows getting passive income as people hold the custom-tailored token HKN. Also, white hat hackers can be rewarded for the services they provide, without having their identities exposed. It's a crucial aspect for encouraging such professionals to work for on appropriate side of the firewall. If their skills and abilities are not valued enough, they would probably apply them to black hat hacking. In fact, a lack of cybersecurity is still a problem, and the anonymous army of the Faceless Men is dealing with it even today. There's no need for them to show their real faces, and there's no need for the clients of the Ecosystem to ask for it. If white hat hackers trust this method of moving money, it might be pretty smart to act in the same way.

4. Opportunity to Get Additional Profit
In addition, cryptocurrency provides an opportunity to receive profits from buying tokens. The exchange rate of bitcoin-dollar has already passed the $20000 level, for instance. Now, it's floating around $18300. Bitcoin's price underwent a growth of 20% within a matter of days, which means an extremely high profitability. The same applies with tokens which value is growing constantly as well. For instance, the value of one HKN in the Ecosystem changes fast and positively after a token sale. Its primary exchange rate was $1, but it has increased after the crowdsale due to the high demand on the token and the burning principle being applied to regulate it. This principle is aimed at making the number of tokens in the system lower, and it will promote their growth in value. Also, it's noteworthy that tokens provide an opportunity to purchase the service of a company utilizing its cryptocurrency, which was bought by the customer for a rather attractive price. In other words, cryptocurrency turned out to be the example of a smart investment with positive liquidity that's used for buying a needed service. For example, the Hacken Ecosystem utilizes HKN for selling the services of white hat hackers, but this form of financial cooperation is quite promising for other spheres as well. Last but not least, our special product Crypto Exchange Ranks gives arbitrage view that allows its users to get income on sending money from one exchange to another.
The world might not be entirely ready to accept this new system of payment. People are actively resisting everything new and they try to delay the moment when it will be necessary to accept reality and learn how it works. The main challenge is that the world has already changed due to cryptocurrency based on blockchain technology, and it's necessary to adapt to these changes. The example of the Hacken Ecosystem might well be regarded as a small utopian version of how it should work globally for other organizations.

Whether you're competing in a marathon or just going for a short jog after work, getting a cramp is always something runners hope to steer clear of.
From a side stitch in your abdominal area to a Charley horse in your calf, cramping up can force you to start walking, come to a screeching halt and just overall, ruin your run.
Although there isn't significant evidence-based research on how to avoid getting a cramp while running, experts do have plenty of recommendations on how to decrease your chances of cramping up.
Here are eight ways to help stop cramps from getting in between you and your next run or race.
Stay hydrated.From facilitating with weight loss to relieving headaches to improving athletic ability, drinking plenty of water throughout the day can do miraculous things for one's body.
Although past research hasn't proven that dehydration causes cramps, experts do believe that it may reduce the degree of pain to which a cramp causes a person.
A survey-based study in the Journal of Sports Rehabilitation found that most responders indicated that dehydration was among the reasons they suffered from exercise-associated muscle cramps.
They found that fluid replacement was successful for treating and preventing their cramping, the study said.
Replenish with electrolytes.If you're planning to take part in any kind of athletic activity, including running, you'll want to make sure you're consuming electrolytes in your diet.Electrolytes are ions in the body that conduct electricity and they're important for a wide range of body functions, including athletic performance. When your body isn't given enough electrolytes it can cause muscle weakness and excessive contraction and cramping of muscles, according to Medical Daily News.
The body's main electrolytes include potassium, sodium, chloride, calcium, and magnesium. Eating a diet rich in those nutrients, including bananas, pickles, kale, and yogurt, will help ensure a proper electrolyte balance.
Stretch before you run.Once a specific muscle starts cramping, light stretching can be a great way to alleviate your pain and discomfort. But you don't have to wait until you feel the twinge to act.Stretching before a run will help your body warm up and decrease your chances of experiencing cramps, muscle strains, and injuries during your run, according to Healthline.
Don't eat directly before a run.Eating a meal minutes before you plan to sit on the couch and watch a movie is a great idea. But doing the same minutes before a run is a different story.
Experts advise against drinking large amounts of water or eating within two hours of a run. A 2005 study in the Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport found that runners who consumed a large amount of food relative to their body weight one to two hours before a race were more likely to develop symptoms exercise-related transient abdominal pain, also known as a side stitch.
Keep track of what you eat and see how it affects you.If you keep a food log for about a week, you can learn a lot about yourself and your body, including which foods make you bloated, why you feel more tired on certain days and what might be causing you to cramp up while running.
According to Active.com, runners should try to keep a log for a full weekthat details what you eat and drink, how long before a run you eat or drink and how you feel during your runs. This will help you determine which habits will work best for your exercise.
Pace yourself.If you have ever run competitively, you know that you should never start a run or a race out to fast. For starters, if you go out too fast you will most likely crash and burn. But you are also putting yourself in jeopardy of a muscle cramp.A 2010 study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that runners who ran at a faster pace at the start of their race were more likely to develop exercise-associated muscle cramping.
To try and reduce your chances of getting a muscle cramp, start by running slowly and settle into your goal pace as you go.
Monitor your breathing.If you're struggling from an abdominal cramp or side stitch during a run, chances are it's related to your breathing.
William Roberts, a physician at the University of Minnesota St. John's Hospital, wrote in an article for Runner's World that most abdominal cramps subside when you start deep breathing with your diaphragm in order to fill your lungs full with oxygen.
"If you are not using your diaphragm, you will limit your oxygen supply, and this may be the cause of your cramping and your heavy legs," Roberts wrote in the article.
Practice some jumping drills. Repeatedly hitting the pavement and running more will surely make you a better runner, but so will adding some jumping and skipping drills known as plyometrics.
Plyometric drills are training exercises that are proven to help improve athletic performance, and they're also believed to delay muscle fatigue and therefore muscle cramping.
When you add some plyometric drills to your training — such as box jumping or jumping lunges — it will help relieve tight muscles, improve coordination between your muscles and nerves to avoid cramping and make your muscles stronger overall, according to Runner's World.


I intended to build a modern style hall table. I used various methods such as CNC routing inlay and the twisted legs, hand cutting cross halving joints and notched rail joints, and also curved lamination of the stretcher. The table features sliding dovetail joints for the leg and rails, and also through dovetail joints for the drawers. The walnut used was from a tree that fell over in a storm years ago and the claret ash used was from a tree that was removed for property development.

A game of two universes. So what next?
After the first 45 minutes of the game against Spurs, I was already thinking of what the title of my post match thoughts would be. I was immersed in how I would praise Arsene as the best manager this club has ever known (that hasn't changed mind you), how I would shower accolades on Cesc for a vintage midfield performance, commend Nasri for fighting spirit, Cham29 fir striking instincts as so on. My facebook status at half time suggested that we were almost there and all I needed was a repeat or near repeat of the previous 45 minutes. But what did I get?
"Inability to kill off games after taking the lead, allowing the opposition back into the game. E.g Arsenal-Spurs (20th November, 2010).
See also: Arsenal-Spurs (31st October 2008), Birmingham-Arsenal (27th March 2010), West Ham-Arsenal (25th October, 2009)".
The disaster began when we lost the ball after taking a free kick, and Spurs launched a counter and the ball fell to Bale who finished nicely. Then Cesc had a moment of pure madness when he was penalised for a raised arm in the box, VDV struck the resulting penalty with aplomb. Then from a free kick, Kaboul headed past Fabianksi in between Cesc and Squillaci. Game won, Spurs had completed a magical comeback and won at our home for the first time in 17 years.
While I am not one to put blame on people, I think Wenger got a few things wrong. I still do not understand why He took off Nasri for an ineffective Rosicky. Nasri had everything to play for, a feud with Gallas was extra incentive, I doubt any other player in the squad will have the determination to score the goal did. It was evident form his celebration that he wanted to win badly and did everything to get the ball in the back of the net. He also brought on an unfit RVP for Cham29, and Walcott for Arshavin. Overall, his subs were ineffective and below par.
The defenders had a nightmare of a game, and Koscly in particular was found wanting many atimes. The Squilacci-Djourou combo showed great promise and I still don't understand why they were not paired again. Cesc had a game to forget, Clichy and Sagna did little going forward and Song was awful in his positioning, thus giving VDV ample space to cause damage.
I did not realize the effect of this defeat until I tried surfing the web I discovered that I could not visit my usual football sites without being greeted with comments and views on the game. I was in deep pain and the only respite for me was Chelsea's loss to Birmingham. In statistics though, you'll learn that both events are independent and mutually exclusive!
My worry now is how we respond to this defeat, our 3rd at home in November. If this home run continues, we should expect 3 more defeats (Chelsea, United and L'pool). 6 home defeats and we DEFINITELY won't win the league title. Are there any positives? Yes. Chelsea lost their 3rd league game in a row and we are still only 2 points adrift the top of the table.
The players have been in the press talking of how important it is to respond in the game against Braga. We need to do that in style, and even if we do beat them 10 zip, it still won't remove the fact that we have no record to hold over the Spuds any longer. How sad?
Roll on Tuesday, I can't wait for us to get a huge win so the ghosts of Saturday's game can be partly exorcised. One thing is for sure though, the scar of that game will be on the mind of every gooner…except of course we in the league come May.
It's a cold day in Accra today, very weird that is. I'm off to get some breakfast and prepare myself for a barrage from my Arsenal-hating pals. Not my best of times you bet.
From wherever you are reading, look for positives.
I'll be doing the same all day.
That's the question I asked myself as Mike Dean blew the final whistle to end what was a miserable afternoon for everyone associated with the Arsenal. We had just lost our second home game of the season, in November, to Newcastle? We cannot blame injuries this time around because for the first time since I can remember, we had over 8 of our starting eleven present on the pitch. Neither can we say it was fatigue because we had all our "best" legs rested over the week. We cannot blame the referee because it's not like he made a wrong penalty decision, wrong offside decision or that he blew the full time whistle on 80 minutes? So what went wrong?
Personally, I feel we underrated them. Yes, we rolled them over last week, away from home, so we are going to roast them at home. I'm sorry guys, football isn't Math and it just does not work that way. Granted, Fabianski could have done well on the set piece but we had a whole half to turn the result around do or at least grab an equalizer. But NO, we kept playing the ball over the top, playing to Newcastle's strength.
Everyone gave a flat performance and we paid dearly for it. Never have I seen Cesc perform so badly, so badly I wanted him changed for anybody on the bench. It cannot get any worse than this, I thought to myself.
But thanks to the Scousers, we are still 5 points behind when it could have been just 2 points. We are now in 3rd place level with the Billionaires and 3 points behind the Mancs who had possibly their best weekend of the season. The only good news for us is that the Spuds lost to Bolton. They must have been sapped following their heroics against Inter Milan.
We need to stop this habit of keeping it late, get an early goal and rest everyone's nerves. It neither does nor suits everyone to be on the edge of their seats waiting for a goal that should have come long ago. We lost at home to WBA and now Newcastle, and even though I am optimistic, we seem to be throwing away our chances of lifting the trophy. Don't get me wrong, it's still well within reach, but performances like this only make it a dream. Let's hope it does not repeat itself.
I'm done ranting, we have Wolves away in 3 days, and we need a great response from the lads after two really poor performances. We need to show everyone that yesterday's game is not more than what I think it is…a mere blip. Let's see what we'll get.
Comments Off on WHAT WENT WRONG?
Oh well looks like its another start-stop-season for our skipper, but the return of Wilshere to the first team is a welcome boost and after signing a new contract that trippled his pay, a goal and 2 assists shouldn't be too much to ask for. Then again Shaktar are no mugs, especially on their own turf. Song won't be able to continue his goal scoring run as a slight knock rules him out and his place will most likely go to the fit again Diaby. Arsh is missing as well and truth be told I'm happy, sub par performances from someone who cost much isn't pretty.
We really need to show more of grit and determination tonight in a very vocal and intimidating stadium, as a victory guarantees us qualification. AW is banking on Theo to give a scintillating performance after sayin he has the potential to better Henry but asked him to keep his feet grounded. Shaktar would probably remain unchanged with Eduardo starting the likely change. And NO I don't want him scoring again. With Fabianski in high spirits and playing well it should be easy, so long we convert most of the chances we create.
Possible Lineup : Fabianski, Sagna, Koscielny, Djourou, Clichy, Wilshere, Diaby, Walcott, Nasri, Rosicky, Chamakh.
Jackie gives 'em just what they wanted: Birmingham thoughts.
Coming in a week when Wenger called for a meeting between managers and referees to look into horrendous tackles, our own youngster gave the press something to throw back in Arsene's face. Wenger has lost a couple of his players to brutal challenges from opponents and has been on the fore front of a "stop violent tackles" campaign. Yesterday's events will definitely prompt the press to infer that Wenger has to put his house in order first. I have seen the tackle over and over again, and it certainly deserved a red; whether it was intended to hurt Zigic is something only Wilshere can tell. However, the good thing about the whole issue was his reaction to the sending off.
"I just want to say that I mistimed the challenge on Zigic and accept that I deserved to be sent off…I have no complaints about getting the red card and I will learn from this".
This is the sort of response we expected from the likes of Shawcross and Taylor, but what we got was a vindication of their actions. Great stuff lad, you are becoming a real man once you can take responsibility for your actions and not run away from them.
The game itself was a beauty as we totally dominated proceedings. We created chance after chance but were very unlucky to go behind in the 33rd minute when Zigic met a Fahey cross with a towering header past Fabianski. Not again…I thought to myself; the West Brom game definitely was not going to repeat itself. I just could not imagine us losing again to a team we would normally beat. My fears were allayed when 4 minutes before the break, a lovely run by Wilshere was halted in the box. Marouane picked up the bits of the loose ball and was felled by Scott Dann. The referee simply had to give a penalty, and up stepped our man of the moment, Nasri to fire past the keeper. One-all, and I knew we were going for something more. By the way, this is like the 6th penalty Chamakh has won for us, not really a bad signing eh?
The second half had barely started when a beautiful move involving Song and Wilshere sent Chamakh free, but he had to do a lot of maneuvering and body positioning to beat his markers, the keeper and slot the ball into an empty net. We had the lead now, deservedly and most of the possession. there was no way we were going to lose this one, not if there was no flappyhandsky moment. Speaking of flappy hands, he seems to have gained some sot of confidence. He was not at fault for the goal, his handling was assured and his decision-making was generally okay.
My highlight of the game was the sight of Nikky B on the sidelines replacing Chamakh for his first game of the season. He was welcomed to a rapturous applause and almost got himself on the score sheet within minutes of coming on. Both Rosicky and Nasri also tested the Birmingham keeper before Wilshere's moment of craze! I'm done talking about that, so it ends there!
So, it ends, 3 points to the Gunners, and a win for Arsene on his 800th game in charge. On a weekend that both the Chavs and United dropped points, a win is just what we needed. As I type this, the Scousers are losing their derby to Everton. I really pity them now, jokes aside. A few positives, very good games from Diaby and Wilshere, Chamakh giving us just what we lacked upfront. We have Nikky B, Ramsey and Theo back, Cesc will join soon, R.V.P isn't far away either. We move to second place, ahead of United on goals even a win for Citeh will push us down one more place. Not too bad, considering we were literally in trouble two weeks ago.
So we are back in business it seems, more point dropped by any of our rivals can only help our cause. But for now, we need to keep our side of the bargain and keep winning our matches, starting with a whitewash of Shakhtar on Tuesday.
C'mon Gunners, let's do this!


I just discovered Richard X. Heyman and initial my reaction was – how have I not managed to hear about this guy before now? His formula is simple: take strong songwriting, apply jangle-filled poprock production, and slather everything with killer Byrdsian harmony vocals. What's not to love? The readily available albums – Cornerstone, Basic Glee, X – all are worthy additions to your collection. But we are here today to pass some judgment. Heyman asked for it, really. By releasing two versions of his song "Hoosier" how could fans not be expected to take a side on which version they prefer? But the choice is anything but easy.
Both Richard X. Heyman and Peter Noone are worth looking up. Click on the links to become better acquainted with their ongoing musical exploits.

Join us on our trips between the 1st of June and the 28th of September to Norway, Ireland and Scotland
Sailing in Europe doesn't really get much better than this!
There is loads of info about all the trips this summer and the other activities of the club elsewhere on these webpages.
This summer we will be sending our yachts in search of some of the most stunning scenery in the world. With the fjords of Norway, the rugged coast of Western Ireland and famed islands of North west Scotland every single week will include exciting sailing, stays in beautiful anchorages and great parties on board.
Kestrel and Puffin will each complete epic voyages around the British Isles, much of it sailing companionably together. You, as the crew, are free to join them on as much of it as you choose. Handily we split it up into week long trips, with a changeover of crew each weekend, so you are free to pick your favourite bit.
Whether you are new to yachting, and want to take this chance to get involved while in the best surroundings, or are an old salt keen on putting your skills to the test somewhere a little more remote than Ipswich then there will surely be something for you. At a cost of only £166 per week this is also the best value you could see yacht sailing. We would love to see as many new people enjoying our hobby and our yachts as we think they deserve!
As you see from the map - our coverage of the British isles and North sea will be extensive!
Have a browse through the individual pages for each trip on the web page for more info.
The voyage:
Kestrel will leave the UK late in May and cross the North sea for Norway where she will spend a few weeks in the fjords. From there she will pass the Orkney and Shetland Islands on her way North of Scotland, cruising down through the Western Isles.
Puffin on the other hand, will travel around the Atlantic coast of Ireland on her way to meet Kestrel in Scotland. This is the first year we have had two yachts to play with, so for the rest of the summer both boats will explore Scotland together before heading in tandem back around to Ipswich. Sailing with two boats is so much fun we hope this will be one of the best summers yet.
The yachts:
Kestrel, a Sigma 38, has been owned and run by CUYC since 2008 and has completed 5 fantastic summer programmes. Renowned as a classic offshore yacht the sailing qualities of Kestrel are recognised by all who sail on her.
Puffin was acquired at the end of 2012 and is a modern Beneteau First 300. Lighter than Kestrel, she is lively and fun to sail, and easily matches her for speed! Rest assured both boats are equipped with everything needed for comfy living, with berths (beds), a galley (kitchen) and head (toilet...)
If you have any questions at all please e-mail the VC Sailing at sailing@cuyc.org.uk!
The individual trips:
All trips are one week long unless noted otherwise. The map only shows start and end point of trips as well as their general route; rest assured that there will be many more stops on the way!

Has Ford's Ecoboost Engine Brought Insurance Costs Down Or Up?
When Ford released its new, low emission Ecoboost engine, it understandably got drivers excited. The manufacturer is one of the first to focus on lowering carbon emissions, without compromising power.The question is, will this new Ecoboost engine really help to keep insurance costs down?What is the Ecoboost engine?The Ecoboost engine is just the start of Ford's mission to make its fleet of cars more sustainable.What's most impressive about the Ecoboost range is that it delivers better fuel economy, without compromising on power. With the majority of eco-friendly cars, power is often compromised to keep costs down. So, what kind of performance can you expect from Ecoboost engines? Well, take the FG Falcon MKII's Ecoboost engine for example. It offers the power of a six-cylinder engine despite only being kitted with a four-cylinder engine.It largely works through direct fuel injections and other impressive technology such as turbocharging and variable valve timing. It's this technology which allows the engines to work more efficiently, without sacrificing that all important power.How can it save you money?The main cost savings you'll benefit from with the Ecoboost engines, is long-term fuel costs. As a driver, you already know that the price of fuel appears to continuously increase year-upon-year. The costs of running a car can be extremely high, and for many they struggle to afford the increasing financial pressure of keeping their car on the road.As well as the long-term fuel cost savings, you'll also discover Ford vehicles that are fitted with Ecoboost engines are typically cheaper to buy too. You only have to take a look at the prices offered by top companies such as AA Cars, to see that there's some excellent deals to be had.So, what about insurance? Well, it all depends upon the insurer you go with as to how much money you could save. However, generally speaking, you'll tend to see more cost savings when taxing the vehicle, than you will with insurance. After all, there are many factors that affect how much you pay on your insurance. As the Ecoboost engines do provide more power, they're often fitted into smaller cars. So, if you currently own a larger, more powerful vehicle, switching to a smaller Ecoboost model will save you money on insurance.Overall, Ecoboost models do save you money, both in the short and the long-term. Ford is constantly looking to lower its impact on the environment so we're also likely to see many more Ecoboost models released in the not too distant future.

About Pat
The Matilda Effect: the brilliant women whose achievements were erased from history by men (Chloe Gray, Stylist, UK, 5-20-19) A new biography of Susan Sontag by Benjamin Moser claims that she was the true author of the book Freud: The Mind of the Moralist, a ground breaking novel that was published in her husband Philip Rieff's name. The "Matilda effect" is the bias against acknowledging the achievements of female scientists, instead attributing their work to male colleagues: "Although woman's scientific education has been grossly neglected, yet some of the most important inventions of the world are due to her." Forgotten Women is Stylist's series attempting to color in the stories of women history tried to erase.
Why America's obsession with STEM education is dangerous (Fareed Zakaria, Washington Post, 3-26-15) "...technical chops are just one ingredient needed for innovation and economic success. America overcomes its disadvantage — a less-technically-trained workforce — with other advantages such as creativity, critical thinking and an optimistic outlook. A country like Japan, by contrast, can't do as much with its well-trained workers because it lacks many of the factors that produce continuous innovation."...Jack Ma, the founder of China's Internet behemoth Alibaba, recently hypothesized in a speech that the Chinese are not as innovative as Westerners because China's educational system, which teaches the basics very well, does not nourish a student's complete intelligence, allowing her to range freely, experiment and enjoy herself while learning: 'Many painters learn by having fun, many works [of art and literature] are the products of having fun. So, our entrepreneurs need to learn how to have fun, too.'"

• A mother's influence
• Girls go to physics camp
• On Barbara Kerr's project, Targets:
• On Learning communities
• From Creeping toward exclusivity
• From Sissies, tomboys, and gender identity
The National Science Foundation books on girls and science
These contain invaluable resources to help engage girls and young women in activities that encourage their interest in science and engineering. No reason you can't do them at home or in camp.
• New Formulas for America's Workforce: Girls in Science and Engineering by Pat McNees. Download by chapter (PDF) or download whole book, free. Best practices for teaching science--to strengthen the science workforce. Chapters on Teaching with a difference, A welcoming new environment, Courses that feed, not weed, New dimensions in diversity, and Changing the learning environment. The original compilation of project descriptions (funded by National Science Foundation grant awards made from 1993 through mid-2002 by the GSE program). These three books are great teaching-and-learning resources.
• New Formulas for America's Workforce 2--Girls in Science and Engineering (available formats: HTML and PDF) More NSF-funded projects designed to ultimately improve the representation of girls and women in the sciences, mathematics, engineering and technology, from mid-2002 through 2005.
• New Tools for America's Workforce (HTML or PDF, posted 8-8-07) New Tools catalogs a wide variety of products from NSF-funded projects to help teachers, employers, policymakers, and parents foster gender diversity in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
In writing that first book for the National Science Foundation, as I read the files of NSF-funded research projects (and researchers) I kept wishing I could go back to school and learn "hands on" about science, the way girls learn it best. The book synthesizes findings and practical suggestions from 224 NSF-funded projects, which studied differences in the ways girls and boys learn (and react to) math, science, and technology in the classroom and identifies many ways to make science more appealing as a subject and as a possible career — to all students, but especially to girls and to minority students. Ruta Sevo was program director at the time I worked on this project. She also started volume 2, which the NSF released in 2007. (She has since retired and is enjoying a whole new creative period. Find her books on Amazon!)
Here are some selections from accounts in that first book of what engages female and minority students and encourages them to see themselves studying and working in science and technology:
A mother's influence (from Bring your mother to engineering school, Neda S. Fabris's project).
Asked what they want to study, most high school girls answer, "I don't know." Asked who most influenced their career choices, they usually answer, "my parents"—and for girls, especially, "my mother." Intentionally or unintentionally, mothers influence their teenage daughters' career paths, typically know very little about math and science, and tend to perpetuate stereotypes about math and science being men's work, best avoided by women.
As the daughter of an open-minded mother, Neda Fabris was unaware of research on the subject at the time she launched the Mother-Daughter Academy (an introduction-to-engineering workshop for high school students and their mothers — aimed at encouraging them to see engineering as a viable option for women, to dispel the myth that engineering is physically difficult and unfeminine, to raise the level of scientific knowledge, and to foster a public appreciation of engineering).
But she had noticed that mothers play a significant role in their daughters' career choices. And as the mother of two small children, Fabris noticed that PTA mothers often showed considerable interest in her career as a mechanical engineer. Several middle-aged women told her, often with a touch of sadness or jealousy, that they wanted to major in science or engineering but were discouraged from doing so by their mothers, counselors, and teachers. They were surprised when she told them that her mother, a foreign language teacher, had strongly encouraged her to study engineering. Fabris's mother, based on her experience in Sarajevo (Bosnia) in World War II, had concluded that engineering offered a solid chance for survival and prosperity anywhere in the world. Although Fabris was scared to death of engineering, the more she learned, the more she came to enjoy it and agree with her mother. She also became convinced that mothers should be more actively involved in their daughters' academic and career choices.
At the June 2001 meeting in Denver of the Society of Women Engineers, Fabris accepted the Distinguished Educator Award. Asked about the standing ovation that greeted her acceptance speech, she said, "It is a long way from Sarajevo to Denver."
(All but one of the daughters who participated in 1996 decided to study engineering, although only a few were considering it before the workshop. At least one mother, intellectually stimulated by the workshop, returned to school to work toward an advanced degree. Ratings were high for all parts of the workshop, with students preferring the hands-on contests and mothers preferring the theory and demonstrations.)

Girls go to physics camp, Ann Sigford's project
In 1998, the College of St. Scholastica put 35 Minnesota and Wisconsin seventh graders through a five-day Tools and Technology (TNT) physics camp, designed to engage them and their parents in hands-on physics activities. It was the second in a series of programs to support a cohort of girls as they moved through K–12.
The girls started by building a pine toolbox, and were each given a hammer, pliers, and a six-in-one screwdriver to use at camp and to take home. At first some girls were intimidated by the power drills, but soon they were vying for access to them. Guided by women scientists and instructors, they built large-scale inventions such as roller coasters, water-powered rockets, and motor-controlled planes.
After building their own siege engine — a medieval invention to catapult objects — they launched the head of a Barbie doll, to mimic the practice of launching diseased corpses over castle walls, to introduce disease among the besieged. Nestling Barbie's head in a sling, they tugged a rope, released a lever, and launched the doll's head in an arc across the college lawn. Her head was too light. By stuffing it with lead sinkers they made it heavy enough to launch. They also catapulted a motorized plastic pig, eggs, and fruit, learning through experience that potatoes and apples were a good weight for the purpose.
Working together, they learned about inquiry, teamwork, physics principles, and the use of tools. Betsy Fochs, a former pilot and a professor at the University of Minnesota at Duluth, taught them about conductors and transistors during a marathon appliance-smashing session in which they smashed open, tore apart, and studied the inner workings of telephones, VCRs, toaster ovens, TV sets, and parking meters. Exposure to science and women scientists is important at this age, says Fochs, "because it's the age they start to think it's not cool to be smart."
On Barbara Kerr's project, Targets:
"Most gifted girls are too well-adjusted for their own good. Many gifted girls do not achieve their own goals because their resourcefulness and eagerness to please causes them to compromise their goals many times in the course of their development. They sabotage themselves by taking less challenging coursework than they need, by stopping out of education or career plans, or by losing sight of their goals entirely—and often never aspire to goals commensurate with their abilities. Their strong priorities for maintaining relationships rather than achieving their own goals makes it inevitable that gifted women achieve less than gifted men....
Most of the eminent women Kerr studied had been talented at-risk girls. If so, perhaps the way to identify the gifted girls most likely to achieve their dreams was to look at the troubled brilliant girl who makes A's only in the subjects she cares about deeply and who struggles with many frightening and painful issues —- not at the straight-A achiever on the cheerleading squad.
...Some of the most powerful lessons on counseling minority girls came from the girls themselves. The project investigators had assumed, for example, that girls interested in science would want to be doctors, but rural Navajo girls felt a uniform distaste, even antipathy, toward this career—fearing anatomy classes because of traditional Navajo concerns about seeing or touching the dead. They also assumed that being an accountant would hold little appeal for a lively, sociable girl with math talent, who might prefer being a clinical social worker. But this was not the case for Pima, Navajo, Hopi, and Apache girls. On the reservation, an accountant is a friendly, caring person who often makes "house calls" and who helps the family fill out difficult tax forms resulting in much-needed refunds. A social worker, on the other hand, is someone who takes your children away.
On Learning communities (from Sandra Madison's project):
In studying why 60 percent of African American students—but only 12 percent of Chinese students—at the University of California's Berkeley campus failed freshman calculus, mathematician Uri Treisman had to throw out most traditional hypotheses (weak academic background, poor motivation, low income, and little family support). To his surprise he learned that the key difference between African American and Chinese students was the way they interacted with each other and the university. African American students did not study together; they worked hard, but they strictly separated their social and intellectual lives. Chinese students formed study groups and had study mates. Their ability to form communities and to collaborate was a key to their success.
Treisman's work at Berkeley provided the foundation from which two initiatives emerged: the Emerging Scholars program at the University of Texas at Austin and the "freshman interest group" (FIG) or learning community. ...The students most at risk of failure at the university, and most in need of social and academic scaffolding, are the students who arrive at the university with the least cultural capital: those from poor or working class families, those who are first-generation college students, those who are academically underprepared or have yet to establish firm career goals. A learning community can provide scaffolding for those students and counteract the feelings of isolation in male-dominated introductory math and science classes that lead many women to opt out of science.
From Creeping toward exclusivity (Cecily Selby's project):
As Nobel laureate Dudley Hershbach put it, "We are creeping toward inclusivity in science." More women are enrolling in science and engineering studies, but they drop out at proportionately higher rates than men do. Self-interest, civil rights legislation, and competition for talented women have compelled measurable progress in government and the private sector but the elite colleges and research universities have proven virtually impervious to change. Science and society require the broad talent and wisdom that can be assured only by increasing diversity in the workforce and workplace. And the shared perspective of the conference was that diversity doesn't just happen; it must be abetted by substantive changes in the attitudes, policies, and practices that inform how we educate the workforce and how the science workplace is managed....
To retain women and minority professionals, what makes a difference is collegiality, credit for contributions, supportive mentoring and recognition by peers and senior colleagues (regardless of gender), opportunities for advancement, visibility, and leadership, and a balance between career, family, and personal life....
Women often delay publishing their research until they have the "whole picture," so they tend to publish less often than men do, which reduces their chances for promotion and tenure. Harvard chemistry professor Cynthia Friend urged women to publish data that is "interesting" and provokes questions instead of waiting until they have all the answers.
From Sissies, tomboys, and gender identity (Susan Cavin's project):
Sociology generally defines "gender identity" as "socially constructed notions of masculinity and femininity." Survey results revealed that women enrolled in engineering felt they had to hide both their femaleness and their femininity to succeed in engineering. Looking and acting more masculine—to blend in with the boys—helped women survive. Students who were pregnant and could no longer hide being a woman felt especially vulnerable and were not taken seriously in the engineering classroom.
Women appear freer about crossing gender identity lines than men. It appears more girls were allowed to play with boys' toys than boys were allowed to play with girls' toys. Few future engineers liked only girls' toys, as children, even if they were girls. In all disciplines, the majority of girls liked both girls' and boys' toys. (Parents and toy manufacturers, take note: Provide more girls' toys that teach the same math/science/spatial skills as boys' toys do.)
Tomboyishness exists across all disciplines, but the incidence of tomboys increases in the traditionally masculine fields of the "hard sciences" and declines in the traditionally female fields of the "soft sciences" and the liberal arts. A masculine identity favors females in engineering science.
Of androgynous men, 80 percent identified as "neither masculine nor feminine"; of androgynous women, 80 percent identified as "both masculine and feminine"—a major finding that held true for both faculty and students. People's gender or biological sex seems to affect even the type of androgyny they choose.
Androgyny among men varies by race: 83 percent of androgynous white and Asian males preferred boys' toys, compared with only 57 percent of blacks and Hispanics. No Asian male played exclusively with girls' toys, but more Asian males played with both boys' and girls' toys than any other racial group. In this study, whites appear less rigid about girls' gender identity than people of color. No black woman in this study was ever called a sissy."
An unexpected bestseller for the National Science Foundation, New Formulas for America's Workforce: Girls in Science and Engineering went through its entire first printing in five weeks and then a second and final printing. Within a short space of time, more than 103,000 people had downloaded the book in PDF format. Fascinating findings from 225 NSF-funded projects on how girls learn best and on what you can do to improve science learning for girls, women, and minority students. Author: Pat McNees (drawing on what the principal investigators had learned and reported). Publishers: If you'd like to issue a reprint of the book, let me know. The discussion engendered by Larry Summers' unfortunate comments at Harvard have stirred up even more interest in the subject than there was when the book became an NSF bestseller.

£36million signing confirms he rejected Manchester United this summer
July 28, 2016 Jordan Street Transfer News 0
Manchester United have completed plenty of transfer business this summer, with Jose Mourinho bringing in hugely talented footballers, like Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Eric Bailly and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. However, one man they've reportedly missed out on is Sadio Mane…
Mane, who has just made the move to Liverpool has spoken out about his move, and claimed that Manchester United were interested and he rejected them as Liverpool represents a better fit.
"Yes, it was true (Manchester United were interested)," he said.
"There was interest from a lot of clubs, not just Manchester United, but as soon as I knew Liverpool were interested I just felt it was the right club with the right coach. It was right for me to come here."
Personally, I'm a huge fan of Mane's. He is an extremely talented winger with bags of pace and is a deadly finisher when under pressure. However, I find it very tough to believe that Manchester United had a firm offer on the table for the Senegal international. There was nothing concrete reported by the media which suggests there was, and you'd imagine it's a tactic on Liverpool's part, to endear Mane immediately to their fans.
