The Department for Transport has released their 'Future of Mobility: Urban Strategy'. CoMoUK welcomes the publication of the 78-page paper which makes for positive reading for advocates of a more efficient, cleaner and less impactful urban transport system.
There is a recognition that the moment of opportunity has comes with the advances in vehicular technology, data science, mobile technology and artificial intelligence. However, these advances alone won't deliver the urban transport system that reduces congestion, improves air quality and makes our cities liveable for years to come. On this, the strategy will be underpinned by nine principles which will facilitate the innovation in urban mobility for freight, passengers and other services. We consider this principle-based approach a very positive step for the provision and delivery of urban transport. The DfT Principles are inspired by Robin Chase's well-known 'Shared Mobility Principles for Livable Cities' in North America and have been interpreted into a set of well-constructed useful framework for transport planning in the UK.
The strategy has recognised the moment of opportunity that comes with the advances in vehicular technology, data science, mobile technology and artificial intelligence. However, this alone won't deliver the urban transport system that reduces congestion, improves air quality and makes our cities liveable for years to come.
Getting into more detail on the nuts and bolts of the strategy makes for positive reading. The first of these is the regulatory review into micro-mobility modes. With advances in mobile phone and battery technology, a suite of new modes and operations have come to market. However, our current vehicular and licensing legislation is not-fit-for-purpose. The regulatory review will encompass micro-mobility modes, Mobility as a Service, transport data, bus and taxi licensing.
CoMoUK hopes this serves to legalise micro-modes such as E-Scooters, but only in ways that create the tools for local transport authorities to manage and regulate them. One of benefits of the CoMoUK accreditation is that, in the absence of formal regulatory tools to manage shared modes it has provided a voluntary framework for minimum standards for operators. The accreditation schemes could provide the basis for future regulatory framework which would allow government in their efforts to manage and regulate these new modes plans to build-in flexibility in to the framework and we will be making this point in our formal response to the DFT strategy.
The strategy is light on funding for initiating the transition to more sustainable modes, particularly walking and cycling which is key for these short urban trips which make up a significant proportion of journeys in our cities. The strategy points to the 45% of urban trips which are under two miles. Principle 3 (promoting walking and cycling for short local trips) will need to be underpinned by financial commitment from central government to ensure active travel has the best chance of being the go-to mode for short urban trips. The strategy makes little reference to the use of punitive measures or controls to curb private car use. We welcome, however, that it points to the alternatives to private car use such as car clubs or lift-sharing.
The 'Future of Mobility: Urban Strategy' sets forth a framework for delivering the urban transport system that is definitely needed and welcome. Our journeys of the future could be faster, cleaner, safer and more affordable, bringing benefits to both individual journeys and society at large. We agree with the strategy that in the future we should continue and increase to use our mass transit networks. To do this, and as the strategy rightly says, it makes sense to move away from the ownership model of transport, a system which drives inefficiency, and transition to the usage model of mobility instead.


The Porsche 911 2.0 S coupé, introduced in 1966, marked a significant improvement and the first of countless upgrades to the legendary model, two years after the production commenced.
Although pretty similar in terms of look, it was down to the mechanic that the 911S made an actual difference thanks to its new all-aluminum, single-overhead-cam, dry-sumped, 2.0-liter engine. It boasted c. 160 bhp, which was a mere 30 bhp more powerful than its elder sister, the regular 911 2.0 SWB.
The 911S also had upgraded brakes with ventilated discs, Koni shocks, a rear anti-roll bar and a set of handsome, lightweight and now timeless Fuchs forged alloy wheels.
On the performance side, the 911S was capable of reaching nearly 225 km/h in fifth gear, which ended to convince private racing teams and amateur race-drivers to take the wheel to races and hill climbs on a regular basis.
Today, the 911S is a much sought-after 911 variant, and especially so with the very first examples from 1966, which are rare to come by in great condition and with continuous history.
The 911S we are offering here is chassis 306810S and completed production at Porsche's factory in 1966. It was sold new through dealer Autogerma of Bologna for the Italian market and registered that same year in October, it therefore represents a rare and south-after 1966 S model. The car was specified from new with a rare and highly desirable Black exterior (code 6609C) over Brown leatherette interior and optioned with Webasto (code 006387), a combination which it still retains today.
As per its Kardex, the first owner was Mr Ernesto Agostini of Milano who kept the car for a rather short time before it was acquired by Marcello Grand of Torino in 1967 and registered that same year with license plates TO 900353.
Marcello Grand, a young private race driver will have a roll bar as well as twin exthaust pipe fitted to the car in order to enter several races under the sponsorship of Rododendri racing team.
In 1968, Grand will enter 306810S in no less than 4 races, all well documented with both entry lists and multiple photographs.
In July 1970, the car was sold to Luigi Liri from Torino after having been owned briefly by Elda Bersano and still registered TO 900353. In late 1974 Liri will change address in Torino and re-register 306810S with new number plates TO L89662 as shown on the Libretto. Various traces of MOT equivalents and tax breaks will document his long-lasting ownership. The car will remain in Liri's hands for 28 years, before being sold in July 1998 to Giorgio Cerciello of Susegana, who kept the car for another 16 years under the same registration. In 2014, the 911S was sold to the current owner as a sound original, complete and matching numbers example but in need of attention. He took the decision to embark in a 'no expenses and details spared restoration', which has led to a magnificent result.
We can today assure that only a handful of 911 offered on the open market do match with the restoration of this example. With minimal mileage since then, this is an ever increasingly rare opportunity to acquire what could possibly be the most stunningly restored early 911S available and with a very special, documented history, in a most attractive colour combination!
The car is offered with its tool rool, original number plates and original Libretto dating back to 1969.

Wesley Chapel, FL, February 4, 2013 – Market Technologies, developer of VantagePoint Intermarket Analysis Trading Software, made a financial contribution to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team In Training. Funds raised go toward finding cures and better treatments for leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and myeloma.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is dedicated to funding blood cancer research and providing education and patient services. It is estimated that over one million people in the United States are living with, or are in remission from, leukemia, Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or myeloma. Someone new is diagnosed with blood cancer approximately every four minutes. Leukemia (and its related diseases) causes more deaths than any other cancer among people under the age of 20.
Sheena Cisneros, a friend of Market Technologies, is running in the Nike Women's Half Marathon in Washington, D.C. to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. She is also running in honor and memory of cancer patients (past and present), including a 13-year-old girl who is battling leukemia.
"If people can battle cancer every single minute of every single day, then I can do this to try to help them. Running a half marathon is nothing compared to the struggles they go through. It's the least I can do," said Cisneros.
Market Technologies' sells software designed to help traders and investors succeed in the market. It has been doing this since 1991. Its longevity speaks to its business success and through that success, the betterment of its customers' lives as they build wealth because of Market Technologies' software. Success breeds financial reward, but it also allows the company to fulfill its long-held commitment to giving back to the community. The company has a long history of donating to charitable causes.
"Our company is in the business of making money, like any company, but we believe we have a commitment to contribute some of that to our community to help those less fortunate or to help organizations whose goal is to make life better for those with serious illnesses. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is one of those organizations and we are proud to help," said Lou Mendelsohn, founder and CEO of Market Technologies.


Representatives of the White House said that US President Donald Trump is planning to meet with Russian leader Vladimir Putin during the G20 summit in Hamburg next week.
"US President Donald Trump was expected to meet with many world leaders, including President Vladimir Putin of Russia, Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, Prime Minister Theresa May of the United Kingdom, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan, President Moon of South Korea, President Xi Jinping of China", National Security Advisor Gen. Herbert McMaster told reporters.
He said that President Trump instructed his administration to work out the issue of developing cooperation with Russia in areas that are in the common interests.
In his opinion, there are a lot of problems in the world that fall into that category," including the North Korean nuclear issue and the fight against transnational terrorist organizations. The civil war in Syria was also mentioned, including issues related to de-escalation, defeating Islamic State (terrorist group, outlawed in Russia), and humanitarian efforts.
Director of the National Economic Council Gary Cohn stressed that there is no specific agenda for the meeting between Putin and Trump. According to him, the president will discuss important topics for them. "We are still finalizing schedules. So agendas for meetings have not been set up at this point", he added.
Recall that the G20 summit will be held in Hamburg on July 7-8.


"The man from whom God hid nothing" himself lay hidden for centuries to all but specialists. But in our own time his name, with the names of many other mystics of the 14th century, is heard with increasing frequency. That extraordinary century gave us Julian of Norwich and Catherine of Siena, whose approaches and style are markedly different from each other's and from Eckhart's. Catherine is the ecstatic mystic, but also a woman of action; Julian's style is quiet and slow-moving, befitting a woman who lived a secluded life of contemplation; Eckhart was a teacher and preacher, and his spirit moved in the 'apophatic way', the way of transcendence, also called the 'via negativa'. By studying all three we come to appreciate that in the field of spirituality there is more than one valid kind of voice. What they had in common was the core of Christian spirituality: a deep passion for union with God in Christ.
The German Meister (whose first name is unknown) was born about 1260 in Hochheim, a village in Thuringia. Nothing is known of his youth, except that he entered the Dominican Order in Erfurt, not far from his home. In 1277 he was a student in the liberal arts and philosophy in Paris. He began his theological studies in Cologne about 1280, the same year that Albert the Great, the teacher of Thomas Aquinas, died there. He would have been well aware of the intense controversy surrounding the teachings of these two great masters. Later he would remind his own accusers that these men were also accused of heresy in their time. By 1293 he was back in Paris as a lecturer in theology. On his return from Paris he was elected prior of Erfurt and Vicar Provincial of Thuringia. In 1302 occupied Aquinas's chair of theology in the university of Paris. The following year he was elected Provincial of the new Dominican Province of Saxony, but the General Chapter of the Order instructed him to continue his work in Paris. During this time he mapped out his great academic work, the Opus Tripartitum, unfortunately incomplete. By 1314 he is teaching in one of the priories in Strassburg, a city of intense religious activity at that time. He was deeply involved there in preaching and spiritual direction. It was there that German mysticism reached its peak, and it was there that he won fame as a powerful and enigmatic preacher. By about 1323 he has moved up the Rhine to Cologne, to teach in the Studium Generale where Albert the Great had once taught, and also to preach and work with the many monasteries and movements caught up in the exploration of the spiritual life. It was there that he felt the displeasure of the archbishop, who accused him of heresy. Eckhart answered the charges but did not satisfy the archbishop who had a profound antipathy to mysticism. Eckhart appealed to the pope, resident at that time in Avignon. Accompanied by a few of his Dominican superiors he made his way there to answer the charges. The commission set up by the pope, John XXII, to investigate his teaching examined a list of propositions that had been taken (out of context) from his various writings and sermons. On March 27th 1329 the pope issued a bull 'In agro dominico', in which seventeen of these propositions were declared heretical and a further eleven supportive of heresy. But Eckhart was already dead. Scholars are now virtually unanimous in believing that the process was faulty and the condemnation unjust; and besides, the bull was not addressed to the universal Church but only to the archbishop of Cologne.
The first thing that will strike you as you begin to read Eckhart is his depth and obscurity. Do not be disheartened by this; the darkness in him truly is light. St Augustine said that the mysteries of our Faith seem dark because they are an excess of light. Eckhart does not delay in the shallows, he plunges into the mystery of God. Union with God was the passion of his life. It is the unifying theme of all his work, and so when you begin to grasp the meaning of any one of his sermons you are beginning to grasp the meaning of them all. There are almost a hundred.
"You must give up yourself, altogether give up self." This is no more or less than the Gospel challenge to lose one's life in order to find it (Mt 10:39). In today's idiom it is to live from our true nature and not from the ego. If the word 'detachment' today suggests cold rejection, then a better translation would be 'non-attachment'. Eckhart did not flee from ordinary life - among other things he was an able and busy administrator - but in everything and through everything he sought union with God: "God is in all things." As you will see in the final text below, he carried this theme to the end, not to an easy compromise.
Some readers (including, famously, Martin Luther) are puzzled at the scarcity of references to Christ. But Eckhart's teaching is profoundly Christological. How are we to understand this? In the same way, I would suggest, that we understand why there is no reference in the Lord's Prayer to any of the Christian mysteries. It is the prayer of Jesus, not a prayer to him. When a disciple prays this prayer, he or she is situated (so to speak) within Christ's spirit, looking out, not outside looking in. This is a deeper sense of the expression 'Christ-centred'. "The Father bears the Son in the inmost part of the soul, and bears you with the only-begotten Son, no less. If I am to be the Son, then I must be Son in the same essence as that in which the Son is Son, and not otherwise….. St John says, 'You are the children of God' (1 John 3:1)." Eckhart is speaking from inside the experience of sonship, he is not commenting from the outside. This is the also called the theme of 'the birth of God in the soul,' a fundamental one for all the Rhineland mystics.
Is wealth something to be avoided?
Is Ego such a bad thing?
ARE THERE RULES FOR A SPIRITUAL LIFE?
on a wide variety of topics concerning the living of the Christian life.

Does the COVID-19 Vaccine Affect Kids or Teens Fertility?
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there is no evidence that COVID-19 vaccines impair male (or female) fertility.
The University of Miami completed a study to measure sperm parameters of participants who received a COVID-19 vaccine, which found no ill effects.
The study tracked the motility and concentration of sperm to see how they were impacted by the mRNA vaccine.
This research adds to the growing body of evidence that shows that the COVID-19 vaccine does not adversely affect male fertility.
There is some evidence (research is ongoing) that getting the COVID-19 virus itself may negatively impact male fertility and cause damage to the testicles.
While the Internet has been rife with alarming stories that the COVID-19 vaccines could harm fertility, this fear is simply not true. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), "There is currently no evidence that any vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines, cause fertility problems (problems trying to get pregnant) in women or men."
The COVID-19 vaccines have been rigorously tested for safety and efficacy—and they have not been shown to harm fertility. Moreover, the COVID-19 virus itself may have negative impacts on fertility and is known to increase the risk of pregnancy complications, findings that make it all the more important for everyone to get vaccinated.
One reason for initial concern about COVID-19's impact on fertility is due to a finding in a 2020 cohort study of SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA in semen. The study did not prove that the virus could be transmitted sexually, only that the virus was detected in the semen of people who were ill or recovering. This discovery resulted in speculation about whether COVID-19 could have effects on a fetus or on fertility.
Data are still being collected about COVID-19's impact on semen, pregnancy, and fetuses. However, evidence shows that pregnant people are at increased risk for severe illness from the disease. In addition, they are at risk for preterm birth and other poor pregnancy outcomes. So, concerns about the virus's effect on fertility and pregnancy are warranted. Moreover, research shows that the vaccine and booster are safe and effective during pregnancy.
Pregnant people can receive the COVID-19 vaccine. They were not included in initial vaccine clinical trials, but data from safety monitoring systems have not identified any safety concerns for the pregnant person or the growing fetus. Likewise, despite false reports online about a link between vaccination and female infertility, there is no evidence that COVID-19 vaccines adversely impact female (or male) fertility.
There has also been speculation about whether or not the COVID-19 vaccine could affect sperm quality. Research has never supported or suggested this, and a study completed in 2021 offers empirical evidence to quell those concerns.
COVID-19 Vaccines Are Safe During Pregnancy
A study at the University of Miami tested the semen of 45 participants, ages 18 to 50, prior to receiving a first dose of the vaccine and again 70 days after receiving the second dose. The study found no significant decreases in sperm parameters.
Since the vaccines contain mRNA and not the live virus, it is unlikely that the vaccine would alter sperm parameters. Interestingly, the study found a statistically significant increase in all sperm parameters. Before receiving the vaccine, eight study participants had low sperm counts. Of the eight, seven rose to the normal sperm count range after the vaccine; one remained low.
Researchers believe that the increased sperm parameters fell within individual normal variation and could be the result of the increased abstinence time before the second sample was taken (abstinence of three days was required prior to collecting the second sample).
Other research backs up these findings, showing no evidence of an adverse impact of COVID-19 vaccines on male fertility.
In a joint statement, the Society for Male Reproduction and Urology and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine said the only known impact of the vaccines on male fertility occurs if a fever happens after getting a dose. This may cause a short-lived decline in sperm health, something that can happen any time body temperature is elevated.
Impact of COVID-19 Infection on Male Fertility
Researchers are studying the potential adverse effects of COVID-19 infection on male fertility. Evidence of testicular damage has been found following COVID-19 illness, and further research is being collected on other impacts on male fertility post-infection.
"We were the first to demonstrate that the COVID virus, itself, can affect male fertility and be a potential cause for erectile dysfunction. We are now the first to examine if there is any impact of the COVID vaccine on male fertility potential, which we did not find," says Ranjith Ramasamy, MD, one of the authors of the University of Miami study.

— Ranjith Ramasamy, MD
Research has shown decreased sperm counts in some patients 72 to 90 days following infection with COVID-19. Ultimately, studies indicate the COVID-19 virus may pose a threat to male fertility, but the vaccine does not.
Does Stress Cause Infertility?
Microbiologist and immunologist Andrea Love, PhD, has dedicated three podcast episodes to debunking vaccine myths, including one about female infertility. Dr. Love explains, "The current myth suggests that the immune response to the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines causes the body to attack syncytin-1, a protein in the placenta, which could lead to infertility in women."
Love continues, "The claim states that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, which is what the RNA in the vaccine encodes, is so similar to the placental protein syncytin-1 that it leads to cross-reactivity. Cross-reactivity means that our immune system can't tell the difference between the two proteins and reacts to this placental protein as well."
Facts About the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine
However, Dr. Love says that all proteins are made up of amino acids, and the mRNA vaccines don't have enough amino acid sequences in common to be mistaken for syncytin-1. "That .39% homology, or protein similarity, would never lead to a cross-reactive response. Proteins need almost complete similarity in order to be mistaken for one another by our immune system, therefore infertility could not happen."
Love also points to recent clinical trials refuting the claim. In fact, nine participants in the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine clinical trial were dismissed because they became pregnant during the trial, with four of them being in the vaccine group.
Registries and trials in pregnant people are currently underway. BioNTech and Pfizer's phase 2/3 placebo-controlled trial will include 700 pregnant adults between 24 and 34 weeks gestation. The study is expected to conclude in August of 2022.
Facts About the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine contains the following:
Lipids (fats)
((4-hydroxybutyl)azanediyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl)bis(2-hexyldecanoate)
2 [(polyethylene glycol (PEG))-2000]-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide
1,2-Distearoyl-sn-glycero-3- phosphocholine
Salts and sugars
Monobasic potassium phosphate
Dibasic sodium phosphate dihydrate
Andrea Love, PhD
Proteins need almost complete similarity in order to be mistaken for one another by our immune system, therefore infertility could not happen.
— Andrea Love, PhD
Love breaks these complicated ingredients down, "Despite the science terms, the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have a quite simple formulation." They contain a sequence of:
RNA, which is the template for our cells to manufacture the spike protein of COVID-19; in other words, the piece of the virus that our immune system recognizes and responds to
Lipids to help transport and stabilize the RNA
Buffers to normalize the pH and make it compatible with the pH of our bodies
Sugar as a cryoprotectant, since the vaccine dosages are stored in freezer conditions.
While some of these ingredients may sound like scary chemicals, they're effectively harmless, says Love. They shouldn't deter you from getting the vaccine.
What This Means for You
While COVID-19 vaccines are relatively new, they are based on extensive research and have been thoroughly studied. Plus, their use continues to be rigorously monitored. Strong evidence shows very low chances of having any negative consequences from getting these shots. Specifically, the results of the University of Miami clinical trials and other recent studies confirm what scientists have presumed all along—the COVID-19 vaccine does not affect male (or female) fertility.

Robert Kirkman Talks Character Deaths With EW; Gale Anne Hurd Offers Season 5 Spoilers
This week, Robert Kirkman tells Entertainment Weekly he knows when each character will die, while Gale Anne Hurd shares some Season 5 details with Zap2it. Plus, Michael Rooker chats with the Los Angeles Times about Merle's popularity. Read on for more:
• Robert Kirkman shares with Entertainment Weekly that he has a good sense of when each character is dying and that killing them off is tough, but, "you know, the story's gotta get done and people gots to die, as I like to say."
• Zap2it gets ten Season 5 spoilers from Gale Anne Hurd, including her preference for Team Daryl ("I do know if there is a zombie apocalypse, I want to be on the back of his bike").
• The Los Angeles Times chats with Michael Rooker, who thinks that Merle is so popular partly because "doing a TV show is like doing a film every week. The impact on your fans and followers is remarkable."
• Michael Rooker tells the Orange County (Calif.) Register that getting killed off The Walking Dead enabled him to play the part of Yondu in Guardians of the Galaxy.

• Zap2it reports that Comic-Con gave The Walking Dead cast an opportunity to reunite with Sarah Wayne Callies and Jon Bernthal, who were at the convention for Into the Storm and Fury, respectively.
• According to Zap2it, Robert Kirkman reveals that Season 5 will likely have more episodes focused on specific characters, saying, "It's something that we've had the freedom to be able to do, so I would expect a little bit more of that here and there as we progress."
• Michael Rooker, speaking with San Antonio's WOAI, says Merle and Daryl's relationship was about "that commitment to family and the commitment to the love of your brother. It's there and it is quite apparent."
• Moviepilot takes a look at how "the walkers on the show have evolved – or should I say decomposed? – since Season 1."
• Dread Central, anticipating the Aug. 26 release of the Season 4 Blu-ray and DVD, reveals one of the special features, a video of walkers during the season that were tributes to famous movie zombies.
• Moviepilot attempts to explain why The Walking Dead is "as popular as it is."

2pts Barcelona to beat Real Madrid -1 on the Asian handicap, 21/20 VC or 41/40 Bet365 (Saturday 13th December 9pm ko)
The first "El Classico" of the season looks set to be the most one sided in a long time. Barcelona have the bookmakers running for cover and have been chalked up as short as 1/2, in an attempt to put people off backing them. They are the most in form team in Europe right now and are destroying everything in their path. A little over a month ago they beat Almeria 5-0 in the Nou camp, followed by a 4-1 win at Malaga and a 6-0 hammering of Vallodolid. Whilst impressive, these results were against inferior opposition and we had to wait for the run of fixtures against the big guns in La Liga to start, to see just how good Barca are. They answered this question in emphatic style with a 3-0 away win in Sevilla. This was followed up last week by a 4-0 hammering of Valencia, a team that had previously conceded just three times away from home, oh, and their leading scorer, Samuel Etoo, was suspended for this game too. Barcelona are the top scorers in Europe with 44 goals in 14 games, an average of 3.14 per game! They do not take their foot of the gas when they are a goal up, they keep going until the final whistle. They also have the best defensive record in La Liga, conceding just nine goals. Their twenty match unbeaten record in all competitions was ended by Shaktahr on Tuesday night, but it was a meaningless result with nearly the entire first team rested for this fixture.
Real Madrid have endured a torrid time of late. They were dumped out of the Copa Del Rey by an unheard of lower league side, then beaten home and away in the Champions league by Juventus, before scraping through to the knockout stages with a 1-0 win away at BATE Borisov. In the league they were beaten by Valladolid and Getafe and only scraped a 1-0 home win over bottom club Recreativo. Following last week's home defeat to Sevilla, manager Bernd Schuster declared that it was "impossible" for Madrid to beat Barcelona tomorrow and that it would be "their season". He might as well have said "sack me now", as such defeatist rhetoric went down very badly with the supporters and the club. Schuster got his wish on Tuesday when his contract was terminated and he got his pay off. Unfortunately this was about the same time I was suggesting that Zenit might be worth a small interest if you wanted a bet on this week's Champions league fixtures. The appointment of Ramos before this game obviously changed things somewhat. However, getting a result in a meaningless game against Zenit is one thing, getting something from the Nou camp is quite another. The removal of the unpopular Schuster will have given Madrid a lift but Ramos is not a magician. He will need weeks not days, to sort out Real's defensive problems and although one or two reinforcements will arrive in January, Ramos will have to wait until the summer before the real rebuilding can take place. So the side he puts out against Barca will be the same one that has conceded 24 goals in La Liga already this season. He cannot change it, as there is nobody to bring in, such are Real Madrid's injury problems. This week Ruben De La Red joined Diarra and Van Nistelrooy on the list of Madrid players ruled out for the rest of the season. Heinze, Pepe and Miguel Torres are also out of this fixture. They are joined by suspended duo Marcelo and Robben leaving Real literally down to the bare bones. Wesley Sneijder is also injured at the moment, but Real's injury problems are so bad that he has been named in the squad anyway and will join Saviola on the bench as possibly the only two substitutes you will have heard of. The others will be players from the youth team. So Ramos has extremely limited options if he needs to make any changes. Crucially, left sided duo Marcelo and Robben being suspended has left a gaping hole in an already unbalanced side. With possibly the most dangerous right sided duo in the world about to fill that hole tomorrow night, in Messi and Alves, it couldn't get much worse for Real. Reserve right back Salgado will have to fill in at left back and do his best to shackle Messi whilst Drenthe will play left midfield and try to stop Alves's rampaging runs forward. Much criticised Metzelder will have to come in at centre back, whilst Sergio Ramos moves to right back. Between Metzelder, Salgado and the severely out of form Casillas in goal, I just cannot see how Real will prevent Barca from scoring, they are averaging over three goals per game remember. I know that this is a big derby game, and the cliche says that form is supposed to go out of the window, but I cannot see past a convincing Barcelona victory. They will be keen to open up a gap at the top and seek revenge for last season's 4-1 defeat at the Bernabeau under Rijkaard. If Barcelona win by just one goal we will get our money back, but if they win by two or more, which I think is extremely likely, we will be collecting our winnings.

Channel 10 to Fight Netanyahu's Demand for $4.3M in License Fees
In petition to High Court, television channel cries foul after Netanyahu uses last day as acting finance minister to demand backpay on license dues.

The Channel 10 television station filed a petition Wednesday with the High Court of Justice against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the imposition of a 16.8 million shekel ($4.3 million) government fee that he imposed as acting finance minister earlier this month, a fee that the station claims is liable to result in the station going off the air.

Channel 10 at risk of closure after potential buyers back off
The petition challenges an order issued by Netanyahu just before the new government was sworn in, when he was acting finance minister, imposing the last-minute payment obligation. "It involves a decision that was taken in an underhanded manner," the petition claims, "apparently a few hours before the cabinet was sworn in and the new finance minister took office."
Last Thursday, three hours before he vacated the finance minister's post in favor of Moshe Kahlon, Netanyahu, who is communications minister in addition to prime minister in the new cabinet, signed an order requiring the station to pay the 16.8 million shekels for a three and a half year extension of its operating license. The decision was taken in keeping with a professional opinion issued by the Second Television and Radio Authority, which regulates commercial stations such as Channel 10, but it runs counter to a recommendation by the Finance Ministry's budget department to reduce the amount to about 5 million shekels.
"It involves a decision over which it is clear to everyone that the essence of the decision – the manner and timing in which it was taken – could be a death knell for Channel 10 if it is not rescinded immediately," the petition alleged. The station claimed that the Finance Ministry suddenly raised the issue of the debt only on April 30 in connection with the license extension, without allowing sufficient time for a response on Channel 10's part.
Sources at the station say that the issue of the fee also deterred two potential investors in the station, RGE Media, whose shareholders include U.S.-based billionaire Len Blavatnik, and Israeli entrepreneur Ilan Shiloah. For his part, Shiloah said his investment in the station is not off the table, but he cannot payment from his investor group by the end of this month, when the station must provide payment guarantees.

Yevgenia Medvedeva's once-certain Olympic gold now unsure
Posted: Feb 18, 2018 / 07:42 AM CST / Updated: Feb 18, 2018 / 07:42 AM CST
Yevgenia Medvedeva, competing at the PyeongChang Winter Games as an Olympic Athlete from Russia, first made a name for herself as a junior skater. She's been nearly unstoppable for three seasons, but, her once-certain gold medal chances, like her soaring jumps, are now up in the air.
Medvedeva was far too young to compete at the Sochi Games, but trained under the same coach as Yulia Lipnitskaya, who won gold in the team event and captured hearts around the world by skating to music from "Schindler's List" in a bright red dress.
The following fall, in her final year as a junior skater, Medvedeva won both of her Junior Grand Prix assignments, the prestigious Junior Grand Prix Final, and the world junior championships.
She ascended to the senior ranks the next year and landed atop nearly every podium. She won a Grand Prix assignment, finished second at another one, and then went on an undefeated streak that lasted over two years. She won the 2015 Grand Prix Final, the European Championships a few months later, and the senior world championships.
Medvedeva was the first female skater to follow up a world junior championship with a gold medal at the world championships. The anime and K-Pop lover described herself as having two minds: sometimes she felt like the grown-up she portrayed on the ice, and sometimes she just watches cartoons all day.
The next season, Medvedeva was perfect. She won both her Grand Prix assignments, the Final, her second Russian national title, the European title, and the 2017 world championships.
Medvedeva had set the highest scores ever recorded in the short program, free skate, and total overall score several times over throughout the course of her career.
She seemed to have broken the cycle over the past few years of having one dominant Russian lady who would later fizzle out. But then the bubble burst.
In the season leading up to the PyeongChang Olympics, Medvedeva struggled. She won both her Grand Prix assignments. In late November, she wore a cast on her right leg due to bone cracks in her foot. She withdrew from the Grand Prix Final and the Russian nationals.
Her young training partner, 15-year-old Alina Zagitova, won both of those titles in her absence.
Medvedeva returned to the ice in December, planning a competitive return for the 2018 European Championships in Moscow. It was her first head-to-head with Zagitova – and the end of her undefeated streak, which dated back to November 2015. Zagitova took gold over Medvedeva, separated by 5.38 points.
Medvedeva viewed the silver as a victory, mostly because she was able to compete and skate again. But her Olympic gold in PyeongChang, once seen as a lock, is more uncertain than ever. Now, Medvedeva and Zagitova are favorites for the gold and silver. Which skater earns which medal is unclear.
Medvedeva and Zagitova both are consistent, expressive, and formidable skaters. Most skaters jump with their arms pulled in tight to their chests, but both Medvedeva and Zagitova are known for jumping with their arms over their heads, which adds to the technical difficulty.
Medvedeva often earns higher artistic marks, while Zagitova is seen as having a technical advantage. Zagitova's stamina allows her to strategize her jumps: She "backloads" her programs and her elements receive a 10 percent bonus when placed in the second half of the program.
The ladies' short program is Tuesday, February 20 in Primetime on NBC and NBCOlympics.com and the free skate is Thursday, February 22 in Primetime on NBC and NBCOlympics.com.
CIUDAD HIDALGO, Mexico (AP) — Mexican authorities closed a border entry point in southern Mexico on Saturday after thousands of Central American migrants tried to push their way across a bridge spanning the Suchiate River between Mexico and Guatemala.
Honduran migrants waved their country's flag and sang the national anthem as they approached the bridge. At the height of the confrontation, Guatemalan authorities estimated 2,500 migrants were on the bridge or attempting to get on it.
(AP) – A boy armed with a gun killed three children and a woman inside a Utah home, then accompanied a fifth victim to a hospital, where he was arrested, police said Saturday.
ROOKS COUNTY, Kan. (KSNW) – A central Kansas man is dead after a single-vehicle crash on a country road early Friday morning.
A Rooks County police report says 59-year-old Mark Hays of Woodston, Kan., was driving alone southbound on 25 Road.

Jurgen Klopp is facing an FA charge after making comments about referee Kevin Friend that appeared to question the official's integrity.
The Football Association (FA) has charged Jurgen Klopp for his comments about referee Kevin Friend following Liverpool's draw with West Ham on February 4.
The Liverpool manager has been accused of breaching FA Rule E3 with his remarks about the official after the Premier League match.
Klopp appeared to suggest Friend favoured the home side in 50-50 decisions in the second half of the 1-1 draw at London Stadium.
The Reds went ahead through a Sadio Mane goal but the officials failed to spot James Milner in a clear offside position in the build-up, something which Klopp suggested influenced Friend's decision-making in the rest of the game.
The FA said in a statement on Wednesday: "Jurgen Klopp has today been charged with a breach of FA Rule E3.
Klopp has been given until 1800 local time (GMT) on February 18 to respond to the charge.
Liverpool's next match in the Premier League is on February 24, when they head to Old Trafford to face fierce rivals Manchester United.


One of the greatest things about my job is the variety. I not only oversee [quilted jackets brand] Lavenham's digital marketing strategy but I also work with the stock and customer enquiries. Each week involves updating our website with new stock and generating content on Facebook and Instagram based on lookbook pictures and images of our fans wearing our clothing. Part of my role is to take care of special social media projects. We always incorporate our British heritage into our video concepts. Managing director Nicky Santomauro and I are working on a video concept depicting the brand's history. I also control our stock, analysing which styles, colours and sizes we need to make more of, and then report back to our sales team. Customers contact us via email with their queries and I often help them to find products they're looking for through the website or via our stockists.
On social media we have a section called 'Fan of the day', where customers upload photos of themselves in our jackets using #lavenham. I repost one each day on our Instagram, Twitter and Facebook accounts using #lavenhamfanoftheday. It's a great way to gain customer feedback and it's rewarding to see such a positive reaction to the brand, so that's my favourite task of the day.
I pursued a rather unusual route into digital marketing. I've always wanted to study something events-related, so in 2008 I enrolled for a BA in Events Management at University Campus Suffolk. The course covered units on social media and digital marketing, which awakened my interest in this area. Eager to develop my knowledge, I applied for a marketing work experience placement at tourism body Visit Suffolk in Ipswich during my studies. I interned once a week from February 2010 and full-time during the holidays. My tasks at the agency involved coming up with newsletter content, but also organising travel industry workshops. When I graduated in May 2011, Visit Suffolk offered me a full-time role as digital marketing co-ordinator, where I stayed until I was approached by a recruitment firm for the digital marketing role at Lavenham, where I then started in mid-August 2011. Although my title is still the same, my responsibilities grew as the company expanded. I have lots more stock to manage as online sales increase and I need to keep our fans engaged through original digital content.
To see Lavenham develop throughout the years. When I started, our online presence was rather modest, with only a selection of four jackets available, but since 2011 the Lavenham website has expanded massively. Today, our ecommerce platform offers a full menswear, womenswear and accessories collection. We've also developed amen's and women's range for autumn 14 with iconic British brand Fred Perry, including a quilted bomber jacket and gilet. Setting up the Facebook page in February 2013 was also very gratifying. We attracted almost 10,000 fans in less than two years.It's great to know you've played a key role in the business's development.
I would have liked to have entered the fashion industry earlier. In hindsight I should probably have studied a fashion marketing or management degree in London, but I only discovered my interest in marketing when I was already pursuing a course in events management.
Nicky Santomauro. Her passion for the brand is infectious.
To always be creative yet consistent.
At the moment, I'm the only person in charge of marketing, so I hope to manage a marketing team as the brand grows.
Be creative and passionate about what you do but remain business-oriented. At the end of the day, it's crucial to stay one step ahead of your competitors in order to succeed.
I'd love to venture more into the events side of the fashion business, organising catwalk and trade shows. We arrange a press trip to our factory in Sudbury every year where we show our guests how the jackets are produced, present our autumn collection and take them to visit the village of Lavenham. That is something I'd be interested in doing more often.
