A/N: Just a little back ground on this story. One of my favorite episodes but also one of the worst endings was Suburbs. I never quite believed that Sarah could truly be that cold. I have read a lot of stories and this always seemed to be a topic of a lot of them. The thing I never liked though, was either one, they turned Chuck into some Rambo and had Sarah chasing him, or two, they turned it into a Sarah bashing session and filled it with so much angst it went over the top.
What I want to do is stay as true to the characters as I possibly can knowing one, where they were at in that time frame and where they are now in our current show. So in other words, don't expect Chuck to go join some elite organization and become a killing machine and don't expect Sarah to become some love sick crumbled form of her true self. I want to take what we already know, Sarah does have very strong emotions for Chuck and we have seen her cry and show those emotions and we do know eventually what happens when someone messes with her Chuck (see Phase III). What I want to see is if their relationship had changed into a true friendship at the point of Suburbs, how would Sarah and Chuck have acted from that point. How would events change for both of them if they were truly best friends from this point in their lives.
Also, I want to explore Chuck's friendship with others, especially Casey. Once again, how would things have changed from the point of Suburbs if Casey and Chuck were best friends. The story will mostly center around Chuck and Sarah but will have a lot of Casey and other characters. I will try to stay as close to cannon as I can.
I will also try to stay as close to time line and events as I can with maybe going AU just for a few things but hopefully nothing so out of whack that this becomes a full fledged AU. I really want to stay true to the original intent of the show but as always make it so much better. After all, who wants to read an exact replica of what we can already watch. I want to take it farther.
Hopefully you will enjoy my version of what I think should have happened. Remember, this starts on the Night after the Suburbs mission. Season 2 Episode 13.
Thanks again to Gladius for all his hard work on helping me with this.
I don't own Chuck.
Chapter 1 - The Beginning of Something New
Chuck had never been more excited and if he had to admit, more nervous, then he was right now as he was heading over to the Orange Orange. Sarah and he had just got back from a very successful mission in the suburbs and he could honestly say at this moment, he had never felt closer to Sarah.
He smiled thinking back to that morning where she made him breakfast. No surveillance, no bugs, no government, no cover, nothing, just Chuck and Sarah. He had never seen Sarah so happy and carefree as she was in that kitchen, making him breakfast. It was a vision he would never forget and it was what gave him the confidence that he needed now.
He was just about to the door when he stopped briefly; self doubt once again creeping into his soul. They had played a cat and mouse game, a will they won't they routine for so long, he couldn't imagine a life with, well with truth and honesty. Sarah and he being able to show their true feelings for each other was just a pipe dream, it could never happen. He almost turned around but then he remembered the night when Fulcrum uploaded their Intersect into him. The night they tried to do the same to Sarah but he and Casey saved her.
He remembered the look of helplessness on her face as she thought he had been turned. It was his turn to play the hero as he grabbed her head in his hands and held onto her tight as Casey initiated the Intersect upload. She had gripped his hand so tight, trying to draw strength from him and he was there to hold her, to protect her. For the first time since they met, he truly felt like she actually needed him. He wondered to himself what might have happened if Casey did not walk in the room after the Intersect upload was complete.
He had seen the look in Sarah's eyes and he knew she wanted more. But the big oaf had to come in and ruin everything. But remembering that look, remembering the breakfast, remembering all the other hidden moments; that is what gave him the strength now. He knew Sarah had a brief meeting with Beckman but he was hoping she would want to continue where they left off in "their" house. Okay, that would be his dream, but reality was he just wanted to spend a nice quiet night away, order in some pizza, and just watch a movie. No mission, no lies, just the two of them, finally able to relax. And who knows…
. . .
Sarah had just gotten done with her briefing. Her heart was shattered. She hated the Government so much right now. Well maybe not hated it, because without her job, she would have never been able to meet the greatest man alive. She was so close, so damn close to finally giving in and telling and showing Chuck how she truly felt. She wanted to show him that her making him breakfast was something she wanted to do everyday. Waking up with him was something she dreamed of doing. But then once again, she and Casey failed Chuck, allowing Fulcrum to upload their Intersect, thus making Chuck even more valuable now.
It took everything she had to convince Beckman not to throw him in the bunker. With so much vital information now in Chuck's head, Fulcrum would increase their efforts ten-fold. In order for Chuck to be safe, she could in no way be compromised. If they 49B'd her now, Chuck's new handler would definitely throw him in a bunker. If not that, then they would most likely treat Chuck like Beckman treated him, like a machine. Beckman would never allow another agent that might be compromised to replace Sarah. No she would bring in the queen robot herself, Alex Forrest, and there was no way Sarah would allow such an emotionless, cold-hearted bitch to handle Chuck.
No her heart was broken, but it was a price she was willing to pay to keep Chuck safe and free. She just prayed that Chuck would understand. She had to put the walls back up or she would lose him forever. It was selfish, that she wanted to stay. That should have been more then obvious when she gave up the chance to run away with Bryce. But she was not going to allow anyone but her to protect Chuck, it just was not going to happen.
The final words of General Beckman haunted her as she made her way up to the Orange Orange. "The Honeymoon is over". Beckman had no idea how those words pained her. She was almost to the top when she heard the bell ring to the Orange Orange. Her heart burst when she looked at the monitor and saw it was Chuck. She had to pause momentarily to regain her composure as she saw how handsome he looked. They were in matching outfits and it broke her heart even more thinking how cruel the fates were. She looked down at her own outfit, all dressed in black. How fitting she thought as she felt like she was going to her own funeral.
"Hey, everything okay?" Asked Chuck, a concern in his voice as he spun around to face Sarah.
"Just a routine debriefing." Sarah responded not able to look into those chocolate brown eyes.
"I was wondering…" Chuck started
Sarah froze, oh God, no not now, as she secretly eyed the surveillance in the room. Oh please Chuck don't do this here.
"If you wanted to swing by the old cul de sac tonight?"
And here it goes Sarah thought. The one thing she dreaded but she had to do. She could not let the powers that be even have an inkling that she was compromised. Worst of all, she knew this was going to hurt Chuck. She had no choice as Agent Sarah Walker; frost queen extraordinaire, came over her.
"Why?" And there it was the hurt in his face. One word and she knew she had stabbed him through the heart. It was officially the worst moment of her life…
{* * *}
Chuck was deflated as he returned from the complete debacle with Sarah the robot, and now he was left to finish his brief confrontation with Ellie. Ellie had such high hopes for him and Sarah and he could just tell she was so disappointed at the revelation that he and Sarah would never be anymore then they are right now. That thought haunted him as he plopped down on his bed. He briefly looked up to the Tron poster as if that would be his beacon of strength. They could never be more then they were right now. And what exactly were they right now? NOTHING! Everything was fake.
He rubbed his hands over his face, trying his best to wipe away the pain and sorrow. He almost felt empty inside. It was hard for him to explain. There was heartache at the way Sarah treated him at the Orange Orange, so yeah, he knew he still had a heart so maybe empty wasn't the proper word. Hollow? Maybe devastated? Destroyed? End of the world, never want to see the light of day, wish I was dead? One of those obviously fit.
I mean how could I be so wrong? He wondered. I am supposed to be good with this whole ability to decipher data. Well the data was there, but it definitely did not compute the way he had thought. Sarah had shot him down like she was some kind of freaking robot. As if nothing they did on the mission in the suburbs meant anything to her. Is she that cold hearted or is she just the best damn actress on the planet?
Chuck just could not fathom how another human being could act like that. Maybe if he had years of training in the CIA he could understand, but it was not in Chuck's DNA to even remotely be able to turn his emotions on and off like that. This was why he was having such a hard time understanding how Sarah could do it.
He almost laughed to himself thinking of his track record with girlfriends. Was he completely off in his ability to think he had chosen the right girl? Yeah that had worked so well with Jill. He really thought Sarah was the one though, that his luck had finally changed, but that all came crashing to the ground in a big old fiery ball of doom today. Chuck once again looked at the Tron poster, knowing what was behind it.
His thoughts came back to Sarah as she asked for the ring back. And that was not even the worst part. She kept rolling her eyes at him while he was trying to have a civil conversation with her. Okay maybe it did seem a little odd the way she did it, but what else would it have meant. She didn't have to be so rude, even when she was ripping his heart out and stomping it into the ground. I mean it was just one more night. Why? Was he really that pathetic to be around? I mean at this point even the old, Chuck we can't do this because it would compromise me blah blah blah crap would have been better then just the coldness from Sarah.
A quiet knock was heard at his bedroom door.
"Chuck honey. It's Ellie; can I please come in for just a moment?"
Wow, Chuck so did not want to do this right now. He loved his sister but now was not the time for one of Ellie Bartowski's lectures. Even so, it was his sister. Really the only woman left in the world that still loved him, and thank you conscience for pointing that out. "Yeah, come on in Sis."
Chuck knew right away this conversation might get deep as he saw the stern look on Ellie's face. He had seen that look quite a few times before. When he needed her help on which college to attend, when he asked her what he should do about Jill, when he needed advice about whether he should take a baseball bat to Bryce, and more recently, what he was going to do with his life. Yeah, this could get deep.
"Just a second sis, gotta log out of my computer game." Chuck typed something into his computer. He didn't need the government spying on him during this conversation so he initiated his surveillance loop. It would give him about ten minutes so he hoped that was long enough. He had programmed this a couple months ago originally with the intent that one day, God forbid, Sarah and he might need some privacy. Well that never worked out so he had come up with other uses for the surveillance hack. Having access to Castle can be so beneficial at times.
Ellie came and sat next to him on the bed. She put her comforting hand on top of Chuck's. "Chuck honey. I am so sorry that you and Sarah are having a rough time right now. I know how much she means to you, and whether you admit it truthfully or not, I know you wish things could move forward."
Wow his sister knew him better then anything. He hated lying to her for so long, she deserved so much better then that. He wanted so badly to tell her the truth. Then she would know exactly what he was going through; but he was in cahoots with an organization that didn't know the meaning of the word truth, honesty, or even love. He had only been part of this organization for a relatively short while but they had already infected him with their disease. He felt like any moment now his skin might turn to metal and a light would start spinning where his head was. 'Does not compute… Does not compute…' He knew it was just a matter of time before he became the very robot that his two handlers had apparently become eons ago.
Requirements for joining CIA/NSA, one must have NO emotion, must have NO conscience, and must be a robot, oh and must be the best actors in the world. Yeah, the government had a type all right.
Ellie could tell her little brother was off in his own little world. She could just imagine what his big old brain must be doing inside his thick skull. It was time for Ellie to bring out the big guns. She saw what Chuck had done on the computer and she figured they could speak freely now; it was time her little brother knew. "Chuck, does all this have anything to do with Sarah being a government agent?"
Chuck about fell out of his bed. "What… What did you say?" Chuck was stunned beyond belief. He knew he had to play it off, but he could not believe what he had just heard.
Ellie just looked at him. "Chuck, I raised you since you were nine years old. I graduated college with a doctorate degree in medicine all the while taking care of you. I have been offered a neurological surgical position at one of the top hospitals in the nation. And most of all, I am one of the nosiest sisters, along with being a clean freak, anyone could ever find. That Tron poster of yours needed cleaning, imagine my surprise when I saw what was on the back. Either way though Chuck, do you really think I am that naive that I do not know what is going on when it comes to my little brother?"
Chuck suddenly became very worried. He hated to think what might happen if the government knew that his sister knew what he thought she thought she knew. Oh man his head hurt right now.
Ellie could see the concern on Chuck's face. "Chuck you don't have to worry. You also know my minor was in theater so I can act the part. I have been doing a pretty good job for the last year haven't I?"
Chuck had so many questions. Wait a minute, she knew for the past year, but how did she keep this from him for so long?
"Chuck, look. I know you have a lot of questions but just know this. Yes I know you are a valuable asset to the government, and yes I know Sarah is a government agent. I also know that John Casey is a government agent. I also know that for a dead man, Bryce Larkin looked quite alive when he was talking to you near the fountain. You do also realize these walls are not that thick right? And Chuck, your "Team" might want to learn a little more about the effects of that truth serum the fake cop gave me; I couldn't move, but I could still hear everything baby brother. But that is not why I came to talk to you."
Chuck had to admit, at this revelation, his problems with Sarah at least at the moment, seemed very far away.
"I need to know how real you want your cover relationship to be with Sarah?"
Chuck was still shaking his head but he knew he did not have much time left before his surveillance loop ended. "To sum it up Ellie, all I know is I don't want to lose her. I can deal with everything else, but if I lose her, it would kill me."
Ellie seemed to ponder this for a moment. "Then you know what you have to do." She knocked on his head like it was a door. "You use that noggin of yours and come up with a plan to get her back. Remember, a good love story always starts with a friendship. Once you are there, and I mean Morgan type friendship, then she will be the one that comes chasing you. Trust me little brother."
For whatever reason, it did make sense. Yeah he wanted more then friendship but he got so caught up in the cover dating that he really never had an opportunity to just be Sarah's friend. I mean they could say they were friends, but that friendship was always marred by the fact he had always wanted more. Thus the true friendship could never take hold and blossom. And a friendship although in theory could compromise an agent, definitely should not be looked down upon as much as a deeper relationship would. It definitely would be easier to not have to hide anything.
He smiled as Ellie miraculously compared it to the one person that annoyed her the most, Morgan. It had originally caught him off guard that she would even suggest becoming friends like he was with Morgan, with Sarah. But when he realized how loyal Morgan was, the little guy would do anything for Chuck, anything. Then maybe it did make more sense then he originally thought. But would Sarah even want to be his friend?
"Remember who you are Chuck. Remember what is inside you. I know what your thinking Chuck. Would Sarah even want you as a friend? Well guess what little brother? You ask yourself how many enemies you had growing up. You ask yourself how many people ever thought ill will of you. No one Chuck. You have faults, sometimes to many to count, but one thing you were always a super hero at was being a loyal friend."
Chuck knew she was right. He may lack in a lot of areas but the one thing he always was, was loyal. Maybe to a fault, but when you were friends with Chuck Bartowski, then you had a friend that would do almost anything for you. There was nothing more important to Chuck then family and friends. Since it was obvious Sarah did not want to be an 'official' member of the family any time soon, then she would just have to fall under the category of friends. And honestly, that wasn't a bad thing as Chuck started mulling it over.
Ellie got up to leave and paused at the doorway. "And Chuck, I know that pretty much everywhere we go is monitored. So we will continue to play this game where I pretend that I am clueless and you pretend to lie to the one woman in this world who loves you more then any other." Ellie laughed as she walked out of his room. "When this is all through, I should receive an Academy Award."
And once again, Chuck was completely stunned. As if he did not realize it before, his sister was incredible, more then incredible. Was there even a word for someone more then incredible? And now, with her knowing at least enough of the facts, she had given him the opportunity to do something about it. He was tired of the moping around, the whining, the jealously, the annoying nerd that always seemed to follow Sarah around. Now that he thinks about it, no wonder she could not stand him.
He stared at the Tron poster once again as his resolve started to build, no more he thought. If he was going to win back the girl of his dreams, he would need to come up with a plan. The greatest plan of all. He knew what was behind the Tron poster, and now he would use that as a blue print for his new plan. The plan to win back Sarah Walker. It all would start with a simple friendship, and that he knew he could do.
{* * *}
Sarah sat on her bed in her hotel room; legs crossed underneath her, holding a very special photo in her hands. She looked around the room as if expecting someone to be there, after all she could never be to cautious. Beckman had tripled the surveillance on her and Chuck and it even got to the point where Sarah had found a bug in her own room. That was normally off limits but the Government did not see it that way now, especially with how important Chuck was. It was a small sacrifice to keep Chuck out of the bunker, but it meant they were no longer safe to express their feelings. She really had to laugh at herself. What was she thinking? They could monitor her all they wanted, she was such a CIA Agent, she never showed her feelings anyway, especially to the one man who deserved all her emotion. She realized a very disturbing thing, she was Casey with lady parts.
Whether she actually ever thought there was a chance to tell Chuck how she really felt, it was impossible now. She had hoped Chuck would be able to figure out what she was trying to tell him in the Orange Orange. She just wanted to hold him and scream to him that yes, she wanted to go back to that house, but those damn cameras and bugs were everywhere. She hoped he got the hint with her eyes trying to motion to the cameras above but from his defeated look, she was not sure he got it.
She sighed as she sat there thinking of all she had to give up throughout her entire life. For what? What had it gotten her? And now she was asked to sacrifice again. She honestly did not know if she could do it. She did not know if she could continue to hide her feelings from Chuck. The only thing she did know is that she would do anything to protect him. But even that was such a stupid thought. She would protect him from anything but a broken heart. God she hated this.
She held the picture just a little longer as she traced the outline of Chuck in his tux. They looked so natural together even though this was a NSA doctored photo. It didn't matter though; this was what she would hold onto to remember why she is doing this. Who cared if the inventory from the house in the suburbs was missing an item?
Her thoughts went back to her childhood musings as she used to dream about being a spy. One particular dream was her standing on balcony in some vineyard on a romantic getaway in France. In her dreams, it had always been her childhood idol, James Bond asking her to marry him. But recently, James Bond was no longer in the picture. Instead, it was a tall handsome man, with brown curly hair that made funny animal shapes, and the deepest chocolate brown eyes that could melt her heart. She would hold onto that dream. It was the dream and so much more that she was sacrificing now for in the hope of one day her dream, and thus this photo would be real. She would be a real girl. She would be Chuck's real girl.
Her heart sank as she realized just how far off that dream was. For now, she was Sarah Walker, CIA Agent, sent to protect Chuck Bartowski, keeper of the Intersect.
Sarah laid back on her bed, a lone tear in her eye as she realized how truly gone she was. How her nerd had truly infected her. She had been transformed and she just hoped Chuck could see through her hardened emotionless shell. She smiled, she just hoped Chuck could see that she was more then meets the eye, that someday she would be able to transform into the woman he would want to spend the rest of his life with.
A/N: Tell me what you think, I hope you enjoyed it so far. Hopefully you like where I am going. This was probably the most angst the story will have. The next chapter will be the implementation of Chuck's plan.
If you forgot, the Tron poster held all the details about everyone in Chuck's Spy life.

Today we set out to explore Porto. We revisited the cafe from the other night where we planned out our day with our companions and our entries for the blog. Catarina drove us down to the beach where stopped at another cafe for another coffee before taking off our shoes and "wading" (ankle deep) in the frigid waters of the Atlantic Ocean. I climbed out on a large rock and sat down to listen to the waves crash and for just a moment I began to reflect on my former life plans, friends, and lovers before stepping back into the present moment.
We are perhaps too fascinated with everything right now, stalling at every possible corner to observe and photograph the winding streets because they look so different than the neighborhoods back home. We explored an abandoned ceramics factory, which didn't really interest Catarina or Win too much. They laughed at us a little but also urged us not to climb the rotting stairs to the second floor which was one false step away from collapse. If they thought we were wide-eyed then, it was a bit comical to see us at the port. Everything was picturesque. We could have taken dozens of postcard-worthy photos if we were decent photographers. We bought chestnuts from a street vendor and the flavors mixed with the smells and sounds of the waterfront in an intoxicating mix of senses and emotions.
It's very easy to walk through the streets of this beautiful city and fall into the trap of viewing another country through a phony lense; as though every place outside the United States is a Disney attraction. The air smells different. The people speak a language we don't understand. Everywhere you look there is a bronze statue cast in the 19th century or a structure from the 15th century or even the 10th. A lack of consciousness about the political realities of another country often allow a person to take in all of these things in as they are by themselves, without any context, without being situated in history, and without any understanding of the fact that while for us they are "the sights," for the locals they make up a city where they live, work, and struggle.
During a different period, perhaps we could spend all of our time here fairly ignorant of the other layers of Porto. In this particular moment though, there is a mood developing across all of Europe that is becoming difficult to ignore. The program of the bankers, bosses and old mainstream political parties across Europe is one of austerity (or a set of policies which are designed to reduce budget deficits and enforce what they call "fiscal discipline" during economic hard times). It never means nationalizing the banks and cutting military spending. It always means gutting the public sector to make way for people who want to insert the profit motive into every sphere of life and cutting the funding to social programs.
The example of the new SYRIZA (Coalition of the Radical Left) government in Greece, which is making good on its promises to reverse the hated economic policies of the previous government, has become a banner which an exhausted population in any city can raise. The day before we arrived in Porto, there was a "Solidarity With Greece" demonstration. There were demonstrations all over the continent. While taking in the sights around city, we saw several stencils of the Greek flag along with anti-austerity slogans spray painted on walls. On the 20th, there will be a demonstration against the austerity policies of the Portuguese government.
There is more to the counter-austerity narrative than just rallies and graffiti from left-wing activists. The profound and deep nature of the crisis and its effects on Portuguese society means that the discussion is one that can pop up at any moment, in nearly every context. During dinner, Win made a joke to the waiter that he didn't need a napkin because he was German.
The waiter responded: "Ah, so this is austerity for the Germans!" Then he brought a stack of napkins to Win and quipped "My regards to Angela" (as in Merkel)
We all had a good laugh about it and Win said that he should start telling people he's Austrian.
We talked of how the everyday German is often an object of scorn in Southern Europe and that when Germans drive through they sometimes put up signs reading "Germans Against Merkel" in order to try and publicly distance themselves from the policies of the Troika; the European Central Bank, European Commission, and the International Monetary Fund. The German government is the biggest cheerleader for the Troika's policies of gutting social spending and economic safety nets across the weaker economies of the Eurozone, something roundly despised by struggling people in every country.
We spent the whole evening with Catarina's friend, Pedro. He works both as a freelance photographer and with a government program for troubled youth. He had a few jokes to tell about Germans.
Tomorrow we are to take the "Worst Tour," organized by a member of the Left Bloc, to see the poorest neighborhoods. These are the places in the greatest need of social spending and support and are thus hit hardest by the relentless drive of austerity. This is the side of a city that swarms of tourists don't visit. Until we do this, we can't honestly say that we've "seen" Porto. Maybe someone else will tell us later that we never really "saw" Porto because we never patronized their favorite octopus sandwhich vendor. I'm not sure if that's a real dish here, I just mean that we all have our own priorities.

Pro-Tip: Send Back Your Defective/Recalled Gun
The fact that Navarro failed to return his pistol is being used against him in a court of law, as evidence – additional evidence – that he was not a responsible gun owner.
"A North Bend man accused of fatally shooting a childhood friend while showing off a pistol he knew had been recalled has been charged with manslaughter," komonews.com reports. As Fergie would say, h-h-h-h-hold it. Let's skip straight to relevant information about the pistol Robert C. Navarro used to kill his friend . . .
Some models of the pistol – a Springfield Armory XD-S – had been recalled by the manufacturer because of a safety concern. Springfield Armory warns that defective pistols could accidentally discharge under "exceptionally rare" conditions.
According to charging papers, Navarro said he was aware of the recall but had not sent his pistol in for repairs. Police say he was worried the repairs would take too long.
Navarro "knew the weapon was defective and placed a greater concern with his own inconvenience over safety," the investigating officer said in charging papers.
Investigators tested the pistol following the shooting and could not cause it to fire without the trigger being pulled.
Springfield described the problem with the XD-S 3″ model problem this way:
One of our customers reported that his XD-S™ had fired multiple shots unexpectedly and returned this pistol to us for our inspection. Our gunsmith recreated this situation in a test pistol by modifying the components of that pistol and was able to recreate the customer's claim. Through extensive evaluation and testing of this pistol, we developed an improved engagement among critical components of the pistol to prevent the remote possibility of this unintentional discharge . . .
Our engineers went to work immediately and developed a design solution. Essentially, we redesigned the grip safety and created more positive engagement between the sear and striker. We then conducted extensive successful testing of that solution.
Like most of these recalls, recreating the issue would be nigh on impossible. One hopes the investigators contacted Springfield, rather than simply mucking around with Mr. Navarro's pistol. In any case, the description of events indicates that the defect probably had nothing to do with the negligent discharge.
"The evidence in this case shows that Robert Navarro retrieved a loaded firearm … pointed it at the chest of Albert Garza, and manipulated the firearm causing it (to) fire the bullet that killed Albert Garza," the investigating officer said in court papers.

The third and final 2018 Bledisloe Cup game takes place at Nissan Stadium in Yokohama on Saturday with the Wallabies bidding to avoid a series whitewash.
The All Blacks are already assured of retaining the Bledisloe Cup, which they have held since 2003, after taking an unassailable 2-0 lead. Can Australia salvage some pride in Japan?
There is little riding on the third game of the Bledisloe Cup series with New Zealand 2-0 and guaranteed to return the trophy for another year.
Australia are seeking a rare win over their rivals, while the All Blacks are out to complete a clean sweep.
It will only be the fourth time a Bledisloe Cup game has taken place outside of Australia or New Zealand with Hong Kong and Tokyo have been previous hosts.
Will neutral ground help the Wallabies and neutralise the All Blacks?
New Zealand won both games against Australia as they secured another Rugby Championship title this year. They were 38-13 winners in Sydney and recorded a 40-12 victory at Eden Park in Auckland.
The All Blacks beat Argentina twice, but did suffer a shock defeat at home to South Africa before gaining revenge over the Springboks in the reverse fixture.
After the back-to-back defeats to New Zealand, the Wallabies defeated South Africa at home only to lose at home to Argentina. Australia then got the better of the Pumas in South America and lost to South Africa in a mixed bag of a campaign.

— Qantas Wallabies (@qantaswallabies) October 18, 2018
New Zealand have held the Bledisloe Cup since 2003
This season represents a 16th straight year of dominance and a 47th series win in total
The All Blacks dominated both games during the Rugby Championship, winning 38-13 and 40-12
This will be only the fourth time a Bledisloe Cup game has been held overseas
The All Blacks have been much too good in the Trans-Tasman battles in recent times and that won't change on Saturday. The Wallabies don't have the weapons to punish New Zealand and this one can end in another wide-margin All Blacks win
Prediction: New Zealand by Over 12 Points ($1.61)

Ha Noi, 17 Sep 2015 - The Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) Programme of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) Viet Nam is launching the "Emerging Pandemic Threats 2 (EPT2): Risk Mitigation and Management of Human Health Threats along Animal Value Chains" project with the goal of making both livestock and people in Viet Nam safer from potential diseases.
In this globalized world characterized by ever-increasing cross-border movement of animals and people, farming intensification, increasing global demand for livestock and transforming ecosystems it is not a matter of "if" the next zoonotic outbreak or pandemic will take place, but rather, "when". In light of "when", we must take actions to be prepared to detect the event early, rapidly respond, and mitigate the impacts on people, animals, livelihoods, food security, and global economies.
Over the last 8 years, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) and FAO have collaborated closely to combat highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 which had significant impacts to the agriculture and public health sectors, trade, and tourism. Significant financial and livelihood impacts were also felt by farmers, traders, vendors and others linked to poultry production, poultry sales and value chains. During this long period of collaboration between MARD and FAO on this zoonotic disease, key activities and outcomes were achieved in areas such as coordination, surveillance, laboratory services, vaccination, biosecurity, socio-economics, communications and advocacy.
Through funding provided by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the long-standing successful collaboration between FAO ECTAD Viet Nam and MARD will continue, and the new project will build upon successes of the collaborative work accomplished in the HPAI program, fill additional gaps, and result in the Government of Viet Nam becoming even better prepared to detect a disease event early, rapidly respond, and mitigate the impacts on health of people and animals, food security and food safety. Collaboration with MARD Departments of Animal Health (DAH), Livestock Production (DLP), National Agriculture Extension Center (NAEC) and CITES Management Authority of the Viet Nam Administration of Forestry (VN Forest) will enable the new project to succeed.
The four main components of the new project include: 1) Collaborating for One Health at the animal-human-wildlife-ecosystem health interfaces; 2) Making value chains safer to get healthy, disease-free food to our tables; 3) Preventing and controlling diseases based on epidemiological approach; and 4) Strengthening cross-border collaborations in the Lower Mekong and Red River Deltas to better detect and control diseases. While this project focuses largely on a sustainable disease prevention and control of avian influenza and other livestock and zoonotic transboundary diseases, it will also contribute to food safety, food security and improved livelihoods for livestock farmers.
A signing ceremony to celebrate the commencement of the project "Emerging Pandemic Threats 2 (EPT2): Risk Mitigation and Management of Human Health Threats along Animal Value Chains" was held at MARD in Hanoi with the presence of FAO Viet Nam, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD), and USAID Viet Nam.

This week our guest is John Immel. He is the Founder of the leading Ayurvedic dieting website JoyfulBelly.com. He is also Director of the Joyful Belly Diet and Digestion Clinic in Asheville, NC. John promotes practical Ayurveda at diverse locations locally and nationally. He studied Ayurveda under Dr. Vasant Lad and in India.
John started his career with a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Harvard University. He first discovered Ayurveda while working on public health and service projects in South Asia & the Middle East. He studied the language and culture of Bangladesh over ten years and is fluent in Bengali. He is also a student of Sanskrit, Arabic, French, and Spanish.
On a personal note, John says, "Cooking is an integral part of health and the heart of a happy home. Disease forces people to look outside themselves for answers. Cooking brings these discoveries home into our daily lives, in a gentle and life giving way. When I returned home from South Asia, I came to love my new home in the mountains of Appalachia. I also wanted to bring Ayurveda home to America. Using the ingredients familiar from my childhood, I created Joyful Belly to recast Ayurveda in the context of our American traditions. Joyful Belly proves Ayurveda is easy and fun. This simple, practical and familiar approach has helped thousands on their journey to health."
Tune in at 1pm PT Wednesday to find out how you can have a joyful belly!

Here are the previous episodes:

Part Three
"Good grief, Beaky, where did you find this one?"
A large man in officer's uniform had appeared next to Tony.
"Oh, hello, Skipper. This is Josie. Josie, this is my skipper."
A large man in officer's uniform had appeared next to Tony.
"Oh, hello, Skipper. This is Josie. Josie, this is my skipper."
"Hello Josie," said the skipper, shaking hands, "Call me Christopher. What on earth are you doing with Beaky here?"
He was tall and broad-shouldered, with white, even teeth, a blue chin and the self-confidence of a successful ladies' man. Half of Josie found him repulsive. The other half…
"We're very good friends, Tony and I. I'm here to see him off," said the repulsed half.
"Tony's good friends with everyone." He turned to Tony. "And I'm sure he won't mind if his good friend Christopher dances with his good friend Josie."
Tony clearly did mind. "No, of course not."
As Hunt led her to the floor the band changed songs, leafing through music sheets as the clarinet began a familiar, slow introduction. She looked helplessly around Hunt's shoulder and smiled at Tony who shrugged and smiled back. He mouthed the words to the song: "J'Attendrai".
The dance closed at seven o'clock and somehow Josie found herself agreeing to a lift home in Christopher's car. She seized a moment to speak apologetically to Tony.
"I'm sorry to run off like this, Tony, but it'd take me ages on the tram. Thank you, I've had a lovely day. I've really enjoyed spending it with you."
"No, of course, that's absolutely fine. Good of the skipper to offer. Listen, do you think I could have your address? I was hoping you'd let me write to you."
"Yes, I'd like that. Have you got a pencil and paper?"
She wrote her name and address inside the cover of the notebook he produced from his breast pocket. She looked up, the pencil poised. "How do you spell the Italian for that song?"
He spelt it for her and she wrote "Tornerai" in a heart under the address. "There, now you know you'll return. And the lads in the mess will be jealous because you've got a girl back home."
"Have I?" He held out his hand to shake hers. "That's wonderful. Goodbye Josie, thank you for making it a special day."
"Goodbye. I hope I'll see you again." She hurriedly kissed his cheek, turned and climbed into the officer's car.
There was no letter on Monday or Tuesday, but Josie felt nothing but slight disappointment; after all, even if he'd written as soon as he arrived, it was unlikely to arrive sooner. And he was just a briefly-known, chance acquaintance anyway. But by Friday she admitted to herself that she was scanning the doormat each morning with more expectancy. But there was no letter.
It arrived on Saturday. She saw the RAF crest on the flap and paused, uncertain who the writer might be; guilty that there should be doubt.
Dear Miss Sharples,
It is with the most profound regret that I must inform you of the loss of Flight Sergeant Anthony Fielding. I must ask you to excuse my ignorance of your relationship to Anthony. However, your name and address were found in his personal effects and so I felt it my duty to inform you of his death.
Flight Sergeant Fielding was killed in action on the Monday following his arrival here at the base. He was a brave and popular young man who will be sadly missed.
With my deepest condolences,
Yours truly,
Alexr. E. Calthorpe, Sqdn Ldr

Annulment in Alaska
An annulment is a legal procedure that dissolves a couple's marital status by establishing that a valid marriage never existed. An annulment nullifies an already void marriage. The marriage will be set aside as if it never happened (a nullity), returning the parties back to single status.
These are marriages which are prohibited by law due to consanguinity between the persons, or a subsequent marriage contracted by a person during the life of a former husband or wife which marriage has not been annulled or dissolved.
See bullet list below:
- Fraud or Duress – If your spouse has married you by misrepresenting him or herself
- Under age Marriage – annulment petitions are accepted from parties that were part of a marriage involving either being younger than 15
- Mental Illness or Incapacity – If your spouse had a mental illness at the time of the marriage and you do not want to continue living with him or her
- Bigamy or multiple marriages – If your spouse was already married and entered into a marriage with you
- Impotency – If your spouse is impotent and you were not aware of this fact before marriage
Save yourself the hassle by downloading divorce forms here
State laws provide that in cases where an annulment is sought, and there are children of the marriage, that those children be afforded the same rights, protections and parental financial support, including that the children are not considered illegitimate offspring of the parents, that other children of the state receive. An annulment in Alaska is not the easiest procedure you'll go through. Like a divorce or separation you'll need to petition the court for an annulment, provide grounds for requesting the declaration, have your partner served and wait for a hearing date. Courts require greater proof (more convincing evidence) for annulments than they do for divorces.
[Based on Alaska Statutes 25.25.01, 25.20.050, 25.24.030]

About MAI
Refreshing and energizing. Like a morning walk in the Mediterranean when the dew adds that fresh feeling to the floral and citrus scents.
The notes
Top: yuzu citrus, bergamot, orange, spices
Heart: geranium, rose
Base: vetiver, cedar
100% natural, 97% certified organic*
*made with natural alcohol from grapes
A gorgeously refreshing smell
MAI is designed to give you a boost. MAI opens with beautifully refreshing layers of yuzu, bergamot, followed by a strong combo of geranium and rose.
The combination of flower and citrus continues in the middle notes, and you will get that fresh citrus scent, while some more green, and even slightly woody nuances from the cedar will pop in. Rose and citrus scents share some components so the rose/citrus combo both reinforces the smells and creates additional dimensions.
As the notes of rose and bergamot start fading out, the green vetiver and cedar wood notes start appearing more.
Not only are all our ingredients 100% derived from natural, plant-based sources, we make sure that all of our ingredients are used in safe, hypo-allergenic quantities.

About this Research Topic
The complement system plays crucial biological roles in both innate and adaptive immune responses. This important humoral arm of innate immunity provides initial defence against invading pathogens. Even so, a number of microorganisms may cause harmful infections because they have evolved sophisticated strategies to circumvent the immune defence systems of a variety of hosts, notably mechanisms to escape complement activation and ⁄ or lytic complement attack. Among these mechanisms are the recruitment or mimicking of complement regulators, the secretion of endogenous proteases or the acquisition of host´s proteases that inactivate key complement components, and the inhibition of complement proteins by direct interactions. Passive features such as the cell wall of Gram-positive bacteria prevent terminal complement complex deposition also contributing to complement evasion.
A better knowledge of how pathogens escape human immune responses not only contributes to understanding disease mechanisms but also paves the way towards novel therapeutic approaches.
In this Research Topic "Mechanisms of activation and evasion of the complement system by pathogens" we welcome the submission of original articles, reviews and mini-reviews, as well as opinion pieces related to the field. Updates and exciting recent findings on how Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, protozoa, mycobacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites circumvent the host´s innate immune responses will potentially impact the development of specific therapeutics to combat important human infections.
Keywords: complement, imune evasion, host-pathogen interaction, innate immunity
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.

Ryan Reynolds Explains How He Landed Céline Dion For Deadpool 2
Squeaky clean Canadian songstress Céline Dion may seem like an unlikely match for the raunchy world of Deadpool, but that's precisely what made her a perfect candidate to sing Deadpool 2's emotional theme. An impassioned ballad that propels the title character through some tough times, "Ashes" provides Ryan Reynolds and company with ideal accompaniment for more of their signature wisecracks and sight gags. If you've yet to experience Dion's latest tear-jerking movie anthem—which follows in the tradition of Titanic's "My Heart Will Go On"—here it is:
Asked how Dion ended up being involved with the film, Ryan Reynolds told the BUILD Series that his enthusiasm for the French Canadian icon played a major role: "Of course, the studio piles up a whole bunch of sort of millennial-friendly type singers that are all incredibly talented, but we just thought, 'Let's go right to the legend. Let's see if we can get her.' So we got a way in through her manager. I sent her a long letter describing what Deadpool is and what we're hoping to do, and… two hours later or something, she said yes. And then we said, 'How about a video?' and she said yes to that too!"
Deadpool 2 arrives in theatres on Friday. Check out the trailer below.

According to investigators, the woman submitted several phony disability claims between 2013 and 2016. In each case, the woman forged the signature of a LAUSD employee. According to the claims, the woman was unable to work, however she continued to work during that time. As a result, she collected disability insurance payments in addition to her regular salary.
Investigators found copies of the forged documents in the woman's car, along with other evidence to support the forgery claim. In addition to the fraudulent insurance claim, the woman also pleaded guilty to a single identity theft charge. The identity theft charge was unrelated to the insurance case, but investigators discovered it during a probation search of the woman's home. She was on probation for an earlier insurance fraud case from 2011.

This year has seen the rise of new artists and producers and our estimates shows that over 200 songs have been produced by our hardworking artists and producers which makes it difficult to hand pick out which one deserves a spot on our countdown. However, we've carefully chosen the songs that deserve to be on your playlist.
We'll feature the best of songs considering all genres released between January 2016 to December 2016. This list was compiled from our streaming system and from some selected OAP's in the state. So take a sit, grab your phone and enjoy.
10.T'SHAWN-Like That: Tshawn is one of the biggest acts from calabar to work with renowned artist like Vector and Mode9 no wonder he made the 10th spot on our countdown. Like That is no doubt one of the most played tunes on radio and streamed live on calitunes. It was released on 14th of Feb 2016. It has a groovy RnB tune to make you shake away your stress.
9.BEETOVIN-Atekong: This one wasn't difficult to pick. Beetovin released this hit single early in April 2016 and since then it has received massive air play from radio stations here in calabar. There is no doubt that Beetovin is indeed talented. Apart from singing, Beetovin is also a producer. He has worked with numerous artists and it's just a matter of time before he makes another major breakthrough.
8.FRANCIS BOND-Calabar Woman: Francis Bond released this gem early this year in Feb 2016. Francis Bond also known as the King Of Love later did a remix of this hit song with ikpa udo. The song was produced by Pheelz and released just in the breeze of the valentine season.
7.FADA KANE-Co-Operate: Cooperate was released in July 2016. Fada Kane is probably one of the most consistently good musician here in the south. At any point in time,he might not be the biggest star but he's always up there with the big leagues. He has over 30 songs to his credit and they spin in heavy rotation around radio stations in calabar and lagos. There is a video of the Cross River State Speaker dancing to the tune of this song on our videos section.
6.IKPA UDO-Right Now: Ikpa Udo is not new to producing hit songs. Over the years we've seen the maximum disturbance ent prolific rapper releasing hit after hit of singles. It is a dance track that does the magic in parties and celebratory times. Right now was released in July 2016.
5.KING-Made In Calabar: King took calabar by storm with the release of this highly infectious tune, Made in Calabar. He just remided everyone that calabar still has talents.This song has been on rotation throughout September 2016 and beyond especially with the release of the remix which featured ICEBOXX and TSHWAN. King also has an album.
4.REX-Olele: Rex is an unsigned artist based in calabar. Olele was released officially in February 2016 and since then it has enjoyed massive downloads and air play. It's one of the catchiest songs out this year. .He came into the limelight when he got a nomination at the PMFA for Olele. It is one of my favourites this year and we expect a lot from Rex in 2017.
3.OKPO RECORDS-Raba Raba: Upper X teamed up with the okpo records gang for the cover of FADA FADA by Phyno. It was an even harder version of the original hit song. It is one of the hottest party jams of the year. Raba Raba was released in JULY 2016 and has enjoyed much love from fans.
2.ICEBOX-No Problem; Icebox dropped this gem early this year and it's one that will stick around for a minute. He is one of the best rappers from the city who has perfected the act so well. Icebox knows how to package his music and No problem is proof of that. It was the first song to make the calitop5 number one. Apart from the numerous collaborations this year, Icebox also released an album too.
1.Iyanya ft Upper x ft Ikpa Udo-Ayaya: Iyanya's new hit is in line with what we've been getting from him over the last few years. To have a hit in Nigeria, you need all the ingredients. This song boasts of: great beat, solid lyrics, and a catch phrase for a hook. Upper x and Ikpa Udo came through with one the most catchy lines and it didn't take long before it began buzzing in clubs and radio stations.
That was our countdown…what do you think?
That is our top 10 songs of the year 2016. What do you think? What were your top 10 songs?

Brazil announce squad for Ghana friendly 5th September 2011 – Ronaldinho Gaúcho gets recall
August 18, 2011 at 11:26 25 comments
For the very latest news on Brazil, follow me on Twitter here
Brazil have called up 24 players for the international friendlies versus Ghana on September 5that Fulham's Craven Cottage. Under pressure coach, Mano Menezes, has recalled Ronaldinho Gaúcho after an absence of nine months from the national team. The forward was in danger of missing Flamengo's crucial league match against Corinthians on Septmeber 7th. But the Brazilian Football Confederation have already said that players involved in the Brazil game will be free to return and play for their clubs.
Also back are Real Maris leftback, Marcelo, Porto forward, Hulk, and Internacional striker, Leandro Damião. Santos (Porto owned) rightback/midfielder, Danilo, who's currently with the Under-20s in Colombia, gets his first call up. Out go Fenerbahçe's André Santos, Fred of Fluminense, and Chelsea's Ramires.
Menezes is in need of a convincing win. In his first year in charge of Brazil, the coach has yet to beat a side that may challenge his team in the World Cup in 2014. The South Americans have lost to France, Argentina and Germany and have drawn with the Netherlands. Brazil also failed to perform in the Copa America in July going out to Paraguay on penalties in the quarter-finals.
Brazil squad in full
Goalkeepers: Julio César (Inter Milan), Fabio (Cruzeiro), Jefferson (Botafogo)
Wingbacks: Daniel Alves (Barcelona), Danilo (Santos/Porto), Marcelo (Real Madrid), Adriano (Barcelona)
Centrebacks: Lúcio (Inter Milan), Thiago Silva (AC Milan), David Luiz (Chelsea), Dedé (Vasco)
Midfielders: Lucas Leiva (Liverpool), Ralf (Corinthians), Luiz Gustavo (Bayern Munich) , Elias (Atlético Madrid), Paulo Henrique Ganso (Santos), Lucas Moura (São Paulo), Fernandinho (Shakhtar)
Forwards: Alexandre Pato (AC Milan), Robinho (AC Milan), Neymar (Santos), Hulk (Porto), Ronaldinho Gaúcho (Flamengo), Leandro Damião (Inter)

a better squad than the copa one methinks can platoon kaka and dinho from now on take ralf and put back ramires for his energy
Should've had in Maicon for Alves, Santos for Adriano, Nilmar for Damiáo, Ramires for Ralf and Douglas Costa for Gustavo or Elias!
But a great squad anyway… So many great players to choose from!
Vamos la Brazil!!!!!
Good to see Marcelo in the squad now, his character will help the others like Robinho/Neymar/Ronaldinho to shine
RONALDINHO10 IS BACK! It sure took long for Mano 2 realise he needs players like Marcelo,Hulk,etc. Now Kaká jst needs 2 find his A.C Milan form. Bt anyway,da squad looks fantastic. LETS GET READY 2 SAMBA!!!
since ronaldihnio is playing dribbling , scoring allthe way
Every team has equal chances of winning the next European soccer championship. There are good teams and teams which are not so good. But… you don't know how lucky they are. Anyway
ronaldinho comes back ,thats good
i am happy now coz of Adriano (Barcelona) Marcelo (Real Madrid) Ronaldinho Gaúcho (Flamengo) i am flamengo fan i seen him performing very well now a days R10 so i am happy he back in brazil squad and jadson should be in the team i know this that tiago naves is not scoring that much goal for mengo i am not only a mengo fan i am a brazil fan s most of time see my club matchs so i know these players more than other bring him back yes me have a problem of shooting balls too much i am talking about naves but help him to be came
but he works hard most of match that kind of player Brazil squad need
give break to Robinho (AC Milan) now try some other give chance to vanger love or Jorge Henrique these player are very hard working give them chance
i veryyyyyyyyyyyyyy hapy ronaldinh othe best
i have no doubt this team will make it,thanks to ronaldinho and marcelo's back to selecao.Players should be given chance to prove themselves.
brazil and ghana will be a nice game to watch.both love samba.
Where is Kaka… What is the problem between Manazes and Kaka, that he has refused to call Kaka back to the national team since last years world cup in South Africa. Kaka is still one player that can make the difference in that midfield and iniates passes that can lead to goals. Kaka is more of a national team player than a clubside player. I see kak combining very well with the likes of Neymer, Robinho and the likes to make the difference because he is very creative. This present Brazil's squad lacks a leader in that team right now, Kaka can fit in very well in this role.
Also, this present Brazil squad has lost the flare of Brazillian soccer that we use to know and see. Brazillian foootball is drastically going down and something need to be done bring back the glory of Brazillian soccer. Brazil should invite the last under 20 winning team in Clombia to take their place in the national team. There are a lot of talented young players in that squad and these boys are hungry to make Brazil proud any day if given the opportunity. Also, there were some very good players in the under 20 squad that lost to Ghanna via penalty shoot out in the finals 2009. Where are those players today? Thank God for players like Neymer, young and talented, but he cannot do it alone, he also needs other hungry and talented players like him to bring back the glory of Brazillian's soccer.
I am a Nigerian and not a Brazillian. But I like Brazillian soccer more than any other soccer in the world. Brazil has produced a lot of stars that have always make me pround.Stars like Romario, Bebeto, Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Ronaldingho, Kaka, Roberto Carlus, Dunga, Cafu, Lucio, Maicom and Robinho.
I want Brazil to go back to the first position they have always been known for.
Menezes is very stupid kaka and anderson are better than all the midfilders he has invited. I no after this match he will be sacked cos ghana is going to hummilate brazil. Ghana 4 brazil 0
pelo menos tem Neymar e Ganso!!!!
It is great to see the king of the freertyle back to samba's squad. Millions of people are looking forwad to seeing you Ronaldinho. We all hope you will do on your best to beat Ghana as Brazil did in world cup 2006. I am cambodian. I like Brazil the best. My favorite star is Kaka. Though Kaka is not this squad, I feel not regret. Because it was coach's decision. I hope Kaka will be called as Ronaldinho.

We dont care about all de big names. GHANA will beat Brazil 2.0 beware Brazil beware. Watch out for Gyan
call anderson(manchester united)good player…
brazil line up,
squad team:
goalkepper: julio cesar(inter milan),DONI(liverpool),Jefferson (Botafogo)
Wingbacks :Daniel Alves (Barcelona),Marcelo (Real Madrid), Adriano (Barcelona),michel bastos(olimpique lyon)
Centrebacks: ALEX(chelsea), lucio(inter milan), David Luiz (Chelsea), Dedé (Vasco)
Midfielders: Lucas Leiva (Liverpool), Ralf (Corinthians), Luiz Gustavo (Bayern Munich) , Elias (Atlético Madrid), KAKA'(real madrid),ANDERSON(manchester united), Lucas Moura (São Paulo), Fernandinho (Shakhtar)
Forwards: Alexandre Pato (AC Milan), Robinho (AC Milan), Neymar (Santos), Hulk (Porto), Ronaldinho Gaúcho (Flamengo), Leandro Damião (Inter)
what a strong and better squad.i hope brazil are going to dominate.i am dispointed not seeing anderson in the squad.anderson is on his top form but ghana is winning because is a winning team.
ronaldinho is still de best player
I think that Ronaldinho10 today is very important to Brazil's team because he has a lot of experience of what do and what don't do in the life. He will pass a lot of experience to the more young people in Brazil's team like Neymar and Lucas and It is very important that Neymar and Lucas enjoy this moment because I think that in 2014 Ronaldinho will not play in the world cup. He will do like Beckham did with the English team in 2010 (South Africa's world cup). I think that he can be used in London-2012 if he continues playing like now. He was a fantastic player, but now he isn't the same. He is 31 years and all that he could do he did. I don't believe more that he will play like before, however I wish him good lucky. I think that the best of Brazil now is:
Goalkeeper: Julio César (Inter Milan)
Wingbacks: Daniel Alves (Barcelona) and Marcelo (Real M.)
Centre backs: Thiago Silva (A.C. Milan) and David Luiz (Chelsea)
Midfielders: Lucas Leiva (Liverpool) and Ramires (Chelsea) or Hernanes (Lazio)
Paulo Henrique Ganso (Santos)
Forwards: Leandro Damião (Inter- RS), Neymar (Santos) and Robinho (Ac Milan)

It's a family-owned pub with bags of character and a big heart.
The Jolly Taxpayer, on the corner of Eastbourne Road and Martin Road, in Copnor, Portsmouth, is a freehouse run by Ken Watson, his wife Gloria and daughter Theresa Johns.
They bought the business from Punch Taverns five years ago and have never looked back.
And that's been great news for drinkers – because the trio are buying their beer for less which means the prices have gone down.
In the last six months, the price of Courage Best Bitter has fallen by 20p to £2.80.
And being a free house, it means there are no restrictions on what they can do.
The pub's original 'bottle and jug' off-sales counter is still intact and has its own entrance. It's where adults can go and buy cigarettes or beer in a jug or bottle and youngsters can get sweets.
The family have been at the pub since 1981 and were tenants there before purchasing it.
They knew it was the right thing to do and feared another pub company stepping in and charging extortionate rent.
Theresa, 46, said: 'We were keen to keep it in the family and the only way forward was to buy the pub.
'The pub company had put in its magazine that if anyone made a reasonable offer, they could have it.
'We were able to negotiate a deal with our wholesaler and put the price of beer down at the pumps and we have been doing that ever since.
'If we get a discount we pass it on to the customer.'
Theresa said that when her parents retire, she has no intention of selling the pub on.
'I often get asked, when your mum and dad retire, will you still keep the pub?
'It's an absolute certainty that I will. It's important the pub stays within the family. I was born only three roads away from here.'
The pub has made up Christmas hampers filled with tinned goods for pensioners and it'll be open during the afternoon and evening on Christmas Day so no-one gets lonely.
Gloria, 68, said: 'There's a lot of people who live around here on their own, and this place is what they call their village.
'We all look out for one another. If we haven't seen someone come in the pub, and they're someone who comes in everyday, we go out and knock on their door.'
Regulars Janine and Joe Pay will do a parachute jump on December 28 for The Multiple System Atrophy Trust, because Janine's father John has got the condition.
The pub also supports The Rowans Hospice.

Joanna Macy – Live Simply

global oneness project Live Simply It's hard work and kind of boring to be always accumulating so much stuff Joanna Macy - San Francisco, California - Eco-philosopher and Activist and filling your closets and filling your shelves and being very aware of the downside of that. We're more open, I think, to the spiritual teachings in all the religions to live more simply, to show some self-restraint. I bet some of you have gone to Gandhi's Ashram with so few possessions and the carefully polished wood in the windows and the rounded mud of the wall; that there is in doing with little an aesthetic and a liberation. I love what the Center for New American Dream is revealing about the good times that people are having as they're finding alternatives to buying and stocking up. www.globalonenessproject.org - Footage courtesy of the Pachamama Alliance

We had a severe weather day yesterday.
After starting the day in the 60's, a cold front came through with ensuing storms.
Several towns near us were ravaged by tornados.
We were spared and just had a few high winds and rain.
The storm approaches
Angry clouds
Looking north where a tornado passed just minutes earlier
