Wow. No need to be rude or personal. If you would have read *THIS* topic you'd have already seen multiple times the explanation on why it's not possible to brick the APIM. I'll explain it again, for those of you unable to read and prone to making personal insults:
In order to *actually* brick the APIM, you'd need access to the low-level subsystem. This is only possible if you have the hardware from a Ford dealership, since that information isn't even *accessible* through conventional means.
The only problem you could run into is that it messes up the overlying framework, which is when you'd get the "contact your dealership" message. Most of the time, a simple fuse pull and trying again will fix it. If not, you take it in and they re-image it.
What this means is that there is *NO* chance of actually bricking the APIM. The worst you can do, in any way, is mess up the install...which can easily be fixed by a dealership.
And since you apparently missed another point made in this thread...there's no chance of a "messed up" install. The installation is locked using keys that aren't accessible to the public. This means that the installation can't be "faked" or messed with. If the files aren't actually put out by Ford, they won't do anything when you try to install. If it were possible to mess with an installation like that we'd already have modded interfaces.

"I was very happy with how my cards turned out! I had special instructions and they were fulfilled flawlessly and I received my cards quickly! I would recommend for sure!"
"I loved the delicate, simplicity of this card for my daughter. And the fact that I can later use the photo in a table top frame... quality of all tiny prints products is always excellent."
"These invitations are so elegant. I changed up the color of the flowers to blue and green. I had the cut seen in the photo and love it, worth a few extra cents to have fun shape instead of regular rectangular card shape. They were delivered to my door in perfect condition and just a ordered."
"This design was fun to work with and easy to fit all the details into the designated text area. The photo layout fell into place with ease. I love the finished product and quality of paper. Delivery turnaround was extremely fast - I just love this card!"
"I LOVE my invitations. It was easy to customize. Another thing I truly loved was the proofing. A representative called to make sure what they thought could have been an error wasn't. I loved the quality and the print work. Shipping came earlier than anticipated. I give it two thumbs up."

Northern Superintendency of Indian Affairs
United States American Indian Research Bureau of Indian Affairs Superintendencies Northern Superintendency
The Northern Superintendency was established in 1851 as a part of the general reorganization of the field service under an act of February 27, 1851. It superseded the Michigan Superintendency, which was abolished in 1851, and assumed some responsibilities of the former Wisconsin Superintendency, which had been discontinued in 1848. From the Michigan Superintendency it inherited the Mackinac Agency, which with the assistance of the Sault Ste. Marie Subagency, was in charge of the Chippewa, Ottawa, and Potawatomi tribes living in Michigan. From the Wisconsin Superintendency it inherited the Green Bay Subagency, which had jurisdiction over the Menominee, Oneida, and Stockbridge tribes living in Wisconsin and had reported directly to the Office of Indian Affairs following the termination of the Wisconsin Superintendency. The Northern Superintendency also assumed responsibility for some Potawatomi and other Indians in Wisconsin who had not previously been assigned to an agency.
The Superintendency underwent a complete reorganization in 1865. Several agencies were added and removed to other superintendencies over the years. It was abolished in 1876, after which the agents reported directly to the Office of Indian Affairs in Washington, DC.

In his 2003 treatise, Creating a New Old House (The Taunton Press, $39.95), Russell Versaci, AIA, taught readers how architects use precedent to design historical homes. His latest effort, Roots of Home: Our Journey to a New Old House (The Taunton Press, $45), traces the origins of those classic American house styles.
Early settlers, Versaci argues, brought with them house styles from countries such as England, France, and Spain. "They tried to create what they knew," he explains, "but it wasn't always successful because of the different climates. It was a real trial-and-error process." Over time, however, they adapted their traditional building methods to local conditions and resources—and thus was born regionalism, according to Versaci. He ties classic American house styles, such as the Spanish Colonial of Alta California, to the regions from which they evolved.
As principal of Middleburg, Va.-based Russell Versaci Architecture, Versaci specializes in high-end custom homes, but he's also on a quest to make traditional design more affordable. Using the successful Sears Home model, he has formed a partnership with Connor Homes in Middlebury, Vt., to design a line of kit houses. "I'm not sure I will be a highly custom architect much longer," he says, noting that soon the need may not be there. "I saw prefab as a solution for getting better design into the marketplace, a solution for the cost problem, and a way to diversify my practice."

Laminate flooring on 2nd floor....vapor barrier?
I am installing laminate flooring on my whole 2nd floor
I guess a vapor barrier is not required, right?
No, but if there's no built in padding on the back side of the flooring your going to have to lay that first.
Might want to read the box or go on line and read the manufactures install directions.
Yes, there is a padding
And I am planing to put 1st a layer of Homasote 440 for sound insulation
I was also thinking to put that 1st (between plywood and Homasaote) but they told me it won't be very helpful since there is no air in-between
So i will probably go with the Homasote only......
Before going foward on this figure out how your going to trim out where it meets the stairway. Last thing you want is a trip hazzard.
Yes, there will be somehow a transition with the stair
I will redo the stairs with oak, not laminate
I think I can manage to have the last stair perfectly at the same level of the laminate..and for the transition strip, I will have to find a thin one.
Don't see what I can do else...

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Hello and thanks you for using Just Answer. Every taxpayer is allowed exclusions from gift and estate tax before the tax is imposed. The gift tax exclusion is $1 million. A gift tax (Form 709) must be filed if a taxpayer makes any taxable gifts in the calendar year. Although tax is calculated on the return, no tax is due until the taxpayer exhausts the $1 million gift tax exclusion.
If you give your daughter $350,000 as a gift you must file IRS Form (709) reporting the gift but no gift tax is due until you exhausts the $1 million gift tax exclusion.

Keith Richards of The Rolling Stones was discharged from a hospital in New Zealand on Thursday
Aside from the news spread among people out there, which claim Keith Richards has undergone a second brain surgery, The Rolling Stones guitarist has on Thursday May 11, 2006 discharged from a hospital in New Zealand.
Richards' New York-based publicist Fran Curtis said in a statement, that Richards would remain an outpatient at The Ascot Hospital in Auckland and would return for checkups following an operation on Monday to relieve pressure on his brain.
Following his being discharged from the hospital, Richards said "From the doctors to the beautiful ladies who make painful nights less painful and shorter, I'm pretty much at a loss for words to express my deep gratitude. I hope I wasn't too much of a pain in the arse -- after all it was my head they fixed. Many thanks Kiwis."

Around the triangle in NC, it looks like the only color of WRX Limited they keep in stock is silver, which is the last color I would choose. So it looks like I will have to order one, which I am not opposed to, but I do have some questions.
I've watched a lot of Youtube reviews and read a lot of blogs and caranddriver type reviews. The common complaint is the base stereo. Is the major problem because of the head unit or because of the speakers? I'm considering getting the NAV/Keyless option because of this, but if the issue is only due to the head unit, I can get a good one for $300-$400 and be done with it (and save $2000). I don't need the nav, necessarily, especially since some say it's quite lacking. The keyless entry and remote start are also non-necessities. I tried to read through some of the posts, but there's so many to go through and the searching terms are rather generic.
My second question is, how long is the break-in period? I bought my 2010 Scion TC new in 2009 and I think the break-in was about 500 miles. Obviously it varies by vehicle, I'm just wondering how long I get to have a good excuse for playing around in a new car.
A food for thought question: What annoys you the most about the new WRX? What annoys me the most about my TC is that it won't charge my ipod when the car is turned off (it's actually an old iphone which is probably the problem), essentially it dies over night and has to charge for 2-3 minutes before it turns on. The only radio station that's decent around here has an unhealthy obsession with Tom Petty. I can only take so much. I wonder if the USB port on the new WRX can keep my old iphone/ipod charged?
My planned WRX is:
Limited trim, black in color
Nav/keyless/HK audio
The short throw shifter and auto-dimming/compass mirror seem to be a commonly packaged group of options, which I think I'd like, so can't argue with that. Are there any "must have" options other than that?

Senior ministers openly acknowledged the fall-out from his encounter yesterday with 66-year-old Gillian Duffy - who he branded a "bigoted woman" - had been damaging for Labour as they entered the final days of the campaign.
As he prepared for tonight's third and final leaders' debate - hosted by the BBC at Birmingham University - the Prime Minister said he wanted to concentrate on the economy.
"Yesterday is yesterday. Today I want to talk about the future of the economy," he declared as he addressed workers at a factory in Halesowen in the West Midlands.
But even on the issue he regards as his strong suit there was trouble, with claims that Bank of England Governor Mervyn King had warned privately about the massive scale of the cuts that would be needed after the election.
US economist David Hale told Australian TV that Mr King had confided that "whoever wins this election will be out of power for a whole generation because of how tough the fiscal austerity will have to be".
There was no comment from the Bank on his reported remarks, although it is understood that the two men met in London in early March rather than last week, as Mr Hale suggested in his interview.
But during his visit Mr Brown could not escape the issue of immigration, with one worker at the Thompson Friction Welding plant demanding to know what he was going to do about it during a question-and-answer session with staff.
Mr Brown insisted he understood the sense of public concern, pointing to the Government's introduction of an Australian-style points system for workers coming from outside the EU.
"I understand the worries people have about immigration. I understand the concerns about what is happening to people's neighbourhoods and I understand the fears that people have," he said.
Afterwards he acknowledged he should not have described Mrs Duffy as "bigoted" after she raised the issue of immigrants coming to Britain from Eastern Europe.
"I think that I have apologised and I have said that it was the wrong word to use. I am concerned about immigration and I am concerned about controlling immigration," he said.
However, he did not believe the issue would affect the outcome of the General Election, now just a week away.
"Really when it comes down to it, this election will be about the economy and about public services and how people see the future of the economy and the future of public services," he said.
Earlier, Home Secretary Alan Johnson admitted: "No one can suggest this wasn't damaging."
He said that Mr Brown was mortified for having made such a "dreadful mistake", and that Labour fully accepted that immigration was a legitimate election issue.
"The term 'bigoted' - unreasonably prejudiced and intolerant - certainly doesn't apply to Mrs Duffy," he said. "Mrs Duffy isn't bigoted, Gordon isn't a monster and the issue of immigration isn't off limits."
Neither David Cameron nor Nick Clegg wanted to be drawn on Mr Brown's comments ahead of the debate, but shadow chief treasury secretary Philip Hammond said voters would draw their own conclusions from what he said.
"What I was most struck by was the difference between what he said to Mrs Duffy when he was chatting to her and what he said about Mrs Duffy when he was in what he thought was the privacy of his own car," he told Sky News.
"People will draw their own conclusions about that."
Labour strategists had been hoping that tonight's debate focusing on the economy would be an opportunity to regain ground in a campaign which has seen them trailing in third place in the polls for much of the time.
But they found themselves trying to pick up the pieces from the fall-out of his chance encounter with Mrs Duffy, who had just popped out to buy a loaf of bread.
Sarah Brown joined a slew of Cabinet ministers rallying round in an attempt to limit the damage, insisting her "caring" husband "hated the fact he had hurt someone".
The Prime Minister had been canvassing in Rochdale when he met retired council worker Mrs Duffy, who asked him a series of questions, including about benefits and the Eastern Europeans who had been "flooding" into Britain.
As Mr Brown was swept away in his car, he told an aide the encounter had been "a disaster" describing her as "just a sort of bigoted woman", unaware that his words were being picked up by a television microphone he had forgotten to remove.
He later returned to her house to apologise in person for what he had said, after it became clear that she was deeply upset by his remarks.
Party strategists will now be scrutinising the polls for signs of how the gaffe has affected the election contest.Reuse content

Are you the Fallback Girl? If you've ever found yourself in a relationship that feels and seemingly looks like one, but you're struggling with commitment, or you've been in the ambiguous territory of a "casual relationship", you've likely tried to change them, wondered what you did to cause this, what you can do to win their love and commitment, or even whether you're going crazy.
Mr Unavailable and the Fallback Girl is the definitive guide to understanding the relationship between emotionally unavailable men and the women who love them. From explaining how and why they blow hot and cold to where that future they promised went to, how you've ended up being a booty call, why you've been together for a gazillion years but aren't going anywhere, and more importantly how and why you're involved with them in the first place, all of the answers are here.
You know you're dealing with unavailability when you ask stuff like: What happened to that great guy from the beginning? Why won't he break up or stay away if he doesn't want to commit? What the hell did I do to make him disappear? Is he going to leave her for me? It's because he's shy/busy/scared of his feelings, isn't it? Inspired by the real-life adventures in unavailability of Natalie Lue and the readers of her site, BaggageReclaim.com.
Mr Unavailable and the Fallback Girl is an empowering, entertaining, and inspiring read that will wise you up to pitfalls such as men who aren't over their exes, Future Fakers, guys who have more baggage than a Heathrow terminal, and reappearing childhood sweethearts. If you want to understand your own availability and why commitment in a healthy relationship is eluding you, Mr Unavailable and the Fallback Girl is your guide to being available and attracted to healthy, available partners.
Back in the summer of 2005, Natalie Lue was a single advertising executive wondering out loud on her blog why she had a penchant for unavailable men. Using her site, BaggageReclaim.com, to answer that question while transforming her life, her blog has become a go-to source for understanding emotional unavailability, commitment, dating, relationships and self-esteem while inspiring many thousands of people to change their own relationship habits.

"A Must"
This is a very good book, it explains all the mistakes and attempts we women make when we are in love with Mr Unavailable and with Mr Available as well.
The book is indeed repetitive but I particularly liked the repetition of the concept of why we fall for Mr Unavailable so by the end of the listening we do get the concept.
"Wonderful Self Help Book"
The narration was perfect. Funny, forceful and very real. The content of the entire book keeps you listening, laughing and identifying with your own behaviours.
This book has eureka moments throughout every chapter. It's not possible to pick up one particular phrase or topic.
There were no characters other than Mr Unavailable who was brilliantly described and the Fall Back girl was also beautifully captured.
Read this book if you have ever wasted your time on a man who is just not available and in the words of the book is offering you crumbs.
"An unavailable, fall back's girl momentary realizations verbalized"
This book was, for me, the streaming verbalization of the momentary realizations that passed through my mind many times through my focus on self discovery. No, she's not a scientist, nor does she claim to be. This isn't some scientific study on why some people end up in crappy relationships. This is a streaming reminder that your life is your main focus, that you can actually be the problem, but that it's part of learning how to bring happiness to yourself. I'm fortunate to live a life that is dictated by my own wishes and wants, and listening to this book solidified how fortunate I am to have the opportunity to look for, and want, and only accept quality. There are many wolves in sheep clothing, but being the one to try to shave it off is a waste of time. Take the book for what it is - a reminder to you in a time when you may be struggling like I am to assert your self esteem and be ok with having that power. I'm a fixer. If you're a fixer, just try it, you can always return it, but personally, I already know I will be listening to this the second I fall back into my cycle of self sabotage.
Thank you Natalie for just being honest and realistic, and not a male basher.
"100% Yes. "
If you're even looking at this review, answer is yes, definitely buy the book. It is fantastic! More amazingness than I can even begin to tell you.
"Fallback Girl in recovery"
I will listen to this book on repeat until I get Mr Unavailable out of my head and until I fix what's broken in myself.
"Finding answers..."
This book was so insightful. I have listened to it slowly over the course of my breakup and makeup and breakup again with the same person. I have finally found that not loving myself and respecting myself enough was allowing the wrong person to continually put their hooks back in me. I got answers to questions I didn't even know I had. Everything the author wrote, I could relate to so well. It made me feel like I wasn't the only one who has ever been in this kind of unavailable relationship. Nights when I felt so sad and alone, I would listen to the book and my tears dried, and I felt like everything would be ok. It helped me understand why things went wrong and my part in them as well. Great insightful book! Thank you for your words of healing.
"A brilliant book"
I have always attracted unavailable men. I know I'm also emotionally unavailable, mainly from all the pain I have experienced from these kind of men.
This book is so motivational, I'm going to listen to it again. Anytime I fall off the wagon or feel weak, I will listen to this book. What an eye-opener.
I don't hype up many books and have plenty which I can't even finish reading or listen/ pay attention too. I CANNOT stop listening to this. I am so much more clear headed already. I plan to listen all over again once I'm done!
"This should be standard reading for all women"
This book had been a life saver for me. After 6 years... yes, 6 years of tormenting myself with a flipfapper, someone who proposed many times, only to take it away because there was some "reason"..... after 100 times of breaking up and reconciliation..... i finally told him to shove off.
Then I panicked. What next? Now what? This book has helped me untangle the parts I was responsible for, how to sort out my OWN closet and how, I (GASP) have indeed been attracting unavailable men ( and some friendships) into my life because.. again (GASP)... I am emotionally unavailable. ME???? NO.... Natalie's straightforward approach and honest "wake-up calls" are tough to hear but sooooooooo needed. Be brave - be ok being uncomfortable and this book will be your best friend through the process.
LOVE - TRUST - CARE - RESPECT is my mantra. My promise to me! Thank you Natalie.
"It's great to get over an obsession and focus on self, what really matter!"
It's amazing, I recommended this book to lots of girlfriends and they all love it! It's great to lift an obsession and find recovery by focusing on self. Enjoy!
"Eye opener! "
Loved it! A serious eye opener and gave me lots of hope in future relationships.
"life changing. I can finally move on."
I can finally move in with my life. the book was as if someone made a movie of my life and then rode it in this book. So many questions have been answered

Kerry's Mideast shuttle diplomacy just beginning
- By Josh Rogin
Josh Rogin covers national security and foreign policy and writes the daily Web column The Cable. His column appears bi-weekly in the print edition of The Washington Post. He can be reached for comments or tips at email@example.com.
Previously, Josh covered defense and foreign policy as a staff writer for Congressional Quarterly, writing extensively on Iraq, Afghanistan, Guantánamo Bay, U.S.-Asia relations, defense budgeting and appropriations, and the defense lobbying and contracting industries. Prior to that, he covered military modernization, cyber warfare, space, and missile defense for Federal Computer Week Magazine. He has also served as Pentagon Staff Reporter for the Asahi Shimbun, Japan's leading daily newspaper, in its Washington, D.C., bureau, where he reported on U.S.-Japan relations, Chinese military modernization, the North Korean nuclear crisis, and more.
A graduate of George Washington University's Elliott School of International Affairs, Josh lived in Yokohama, Japan, and studied at Tokyo's Sophia University. He speaks conversational Japanese and has reported from the region. He has also worked at the House International Relations Committee, the Embassy of Japan, and the Brookings Institution.
Josh's reporting has been featured on CNN, MSNBC, C-Span, CBS, ABC, NPR, WTOP, and several other outlets. He was a 2008-2009 National Press Foundation's Paul Miller Washington Reporting Fellow, 2009 military reporting fellow with the Knight Center for Specialized Journalism and the 2011 recipient of the InterAction Award for Excellence in International Reporting. He hails from Philadelphia and lives in Washington, D.C.
Secretary of State John Kerry may not have scored a diplomatic coup during his recent trip to Israel and the West Bank, but America's top diplomat is just beginning what will but a long push to restart the peace process, according to sources and experts.
Kerry traveled to the region for the third time in two months this week and met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, Israeli President Shimon Peres, and Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayyad. After Kerry left town, Israeli newspapers published a series of anonymous quotes from senior Israeli officials stating that Israeli had rejected Kerry's proposals for using confidence-building measures as a pathway to a resumption of direct talks.
"I believe that if we can get on a track where people are working in good faith to address the bottom-line concerns, it is possible to be able to make progress and make peace," Kerry told staff at the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem.
The range of reported confidence-building measures that Kerry is seeking from the Israelis is long, and could include concessions related to economic development in the West Bank, the transfer of control over parts of what's known as Area C near the Dead Sea to the Palestinians, or the release of some Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons. The Israeli media has also reported that Kerry is trying to restart talks on the issues of borders and security first, leaving issues like the right of return for later.
"Kerry believes that he can bring about the solution, the treaty and the salvation," a senior Israeli official told Haaretz. "He thinks that the conflict is primarily over territory … and that is wrong."
But multiple sources told The Cable that Kerry's discussions with both parties were not so specific as to seek commitment to any particular confidence-building measures; Kerry at this stage is simply seeking Israeli buy-in to the concept of confidence-building measures as a step toward talks. But the anonymous Israeli official seemed to reject this construct as well.
"If negotiations are renewed, we will be willing to perform many gestures and steps, but they will take place as part of a process that is already underway," the official said.
Former Rep. Robert Wexler, now the president of the S. Daniel Abraham Center for Middle East Peace, told The Cable that the Israeli officials bashing Kerry on background are simply posturing ahead of what will be a protracted process that will play out over several months, if not years.
"I don't think that Secretary Kerry or the administration was rebuked. I think the Israelis are reacting to what they think is a recalcitrant Palestinian leadership and the Palestinians are reacting to what they think is a recalcitrant Israeli leadership and Secretary Kerry is in the middle," he said. "Invariably both sides will take exception to what Secretary Kerry is trying to promote and achieve. That's normal. That might be a necessary first step, what occurred this week. Not a pleasant one but a necessary one to allow Kerry to get to step two with both parties and achieve a more positive result."
Kerry and his inner circle, which includes the heavy influence of senior Middle East advisor Frank Lowenstein, are not naïve about the difficulty of the new peace process initiative they are proposing, Wexler said. They are taking a long view and are planning several more visits by Kerry to the region — the kind of shuttle diplomacy that was taken on by special envoys in past situations.
"The way I see it, you have a secretary of state who earnestly and for all of the right reasons is trying to make sense out of a very messy situation and he is trying to infuse rationality and a degree of trust into a dynamic which is poisoned with too much irrationality and distrust," Wexler said. "It's a monumental task that Secretary Kerry is taking on… there will be continuous setbacks and he knows that."
The advantages of having the secretary of state handle the diplomacy personally outweigh the disadvantages, Wexler argued, which include distracting Kerry from other matters around the world and placing the new secretary's credibility on the line very early on in the process.
The Obama administration needs to prove to both sides that it is committed to this new peace push in order to pressure both sides to dislodge themselves from their positions of inertia, Wexler said.
"Both parties are now seeking to ascertain is how persistent is the administration going to be? How much skin is Kerry and Obama prepared to put in the game?" Wexler said. "If both sides perceive that both Kerry and Obama are willing to bleed some, then the parties will become more accommodating."
Both the Israelis and the Palestinians can be expected to resist Kerry's initiative in the press because they are both posturing ahead of a possible direct negotiation, according to Wexler.
"For the time being, their strategy will be not to agree with what Secretary Kerry is promoting," he said. "Kerry's team is developing a 2, 3, 4 year strategy, because they understand all the obstacles that will be presented. This is the only reasonable course that has any likelihood of success and that's a reflection of the dire situation that we're in."

People have been talking a lot
about the language barrier being a problem for new Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti, but I don't
Ancelotti's English is not yet
perfect, but if you take a long-term view and are looking to employ a manager
for five years or more, it doesn't matter if it takes him a few months to
master the language.
In any case, he is taking over a
team where the majority of players are foreign and have played all over the
world. This isn't the 1980s any more - everybody is used to communicating with
people from different countries.
When Chelsea sacked Luiz Felipe Scolari, people said his flimsy grasp of English was to blame, but I think that
was just an excuse. There were deeper problems at the club.
A good manager will find a way to
get his point across - you only have to look at England's progress under Fabio
Capello to see that.
The main things Ancelotti needs are
time and money. He is Chelsea's
fifth manager in two years, and I fear that any boss who fails to deliver
instant success could find his stay there cut short.
One trophyless season will almost
certainly see him sacked, and it is no good for a team's stability if the
manager knows he must focus on the short term or face dismissal.
He needs the chance to make
changes and rejuvenate the squad. They need some younger players and some fresh
People are already saying he has to get senior players like John Terry, Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba onside, but he has got to wherehe is today by being his own man.
All he needs to do is decide whether or not these players are part of his plans. If Drogba wants to pick and choose who he is going to play for he would be better off back in the playground.
Chelsea have tremendous strength,
stamina and organisation, but are probably the least good side technically in
the top four.
Their strength is pacy,
counter-attacking play, but they need something different to give them more
options going forward.
I'm not sure what players he has
in mind and it is wrong simply to assume he want to sign the likes of Kaka and
Pato from Milan.
This is a fresh start for him and
he might want to go after players he had his eye on at Milan but did not have the resources to sign.
If Roman Abramovich gives him
financial backing, Ancelotti should have more clout in the transfer market. I
certainly don't think he'll be signing David Beckham again!
You can ask questions about
Ancelotti's record at Milan.
One league title in eight years at arguably the most prestigious club in Italy
is not great.
Although he won two Champions
Leagues, it is in domestic competitions where teams prove their consistency. His
last three league finishes were fourth, fifth and third, and he did not get a
good send-off from Milan.
I'm not sure Chelsea fans are unanimously in favour of the
Italian and they would have loved it if Guus Hiddink had stayed.
Only time will tell whether
Ancelotti is the right appointment. I just hope he gets enough of it.

France — land of red wine, baguettes, and the Louvre — has found itself locked in a pissing contest with American retail giant Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) over delivery fees. French lawmakers, in an effort to support small, independent book sellers, passed a law banning free shipping policies, a policy that is being called the "anti-Amazon" law.
France is home to one of the world's most robust book markets, boasting more than 3,500 traditional shops, 800 of which are independent. So it make sense that the government would be looking out for its interests, especially from large, foreign competitors like Amazon.
While a law banning free shipping is something that is incredibly difficult for Americans to wrap their heads around, the French have become accustomed to protectionist legislation. In 1981, small booksellers were the beneficiary of another law that has banned discounts of more than 5 percent of a book's cover price for new releases. This, like the anti-free shipping law, was put into place to give smaller shops a leg up.
But Amazon isn't sitting back, letting the French government one-up it. Instead of abiding by the new law, the company has rolled out a policy that's ingenious in its simplicity: shipping for 1 cent. While it seems petty and trivial, it is sure to ruffle feathers in the French government, members of which are afraid Amazon will undercut smaller booksellers, even if the company has to do it at a net loss.

Modelling the spatial demography of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) on the European continental shelf
Andrews, J.M. and Gurney, W.S.C. and Heath, M.R. and Gallego, Alejandro and O'Brien, C.M. and Darby, C. and Tyldesley, G. (2006) Modelling the spatial demography of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) on the European continental shelf. Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 63 (5). pp. 1027-1048. ISSN 1205-7533

Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) stocks across the North Atlantic have been subject to intense fishing pressure during the 20th century, and some stocks have suffered well-documented collapses. On the European shelf, cod are widely but heterogeneously distributed and are caught as part of a multispecies trawl fishery. There is a growing body of evidence that this stock is composed of substocks with potentially distinct demographic properties. As a first step towards the development of management methodologies that reflect this spatial and biological complexity, we present a spatially and physiologically explicit model describing the demography and distribution of cod on the European shelf. The computational efficiency of our implementation enables numerical parameter optimization, thus facilitating formal statistical tests of structural hypotheses. We use these methods to fit model variants embodying a variety of hypotheses about the movements of settled fish to a data set including spatial distribution information derived from International Bottom Trawl Surveys. The best-fit model emerging from this study is then used to investigate the potential effects of long-term application of a series of regional fishing closure policies.

Ruwalda Al-Habis watched her father and brother get caught in a fire which caused severe burn injuries. Ignoring the laws of Saudi Arabia, she got them in the family car, went behind the wheel and used the driving skills taught her by dad to get her brother and father to the emergency exit of the hospital. Ordinarily, when victims are brought to an emergency door, hospital workers jump quickly to the task of aiding the victims, but this was Saudi Arabia. Instead, they gathered around Ruwaida loudly exclaiming, "YOU drove them here?" Saudi Arabia is the only nation in the world which bans all women from driving cars. A woman who works has to get relatives to get her there as well as making certain she can go shopping or even to pray at a mosque.
The story of Ruwalda's drive was a front page item in many Saudi newspapers. She joins several other women whose decision to drive a car made headlines in a nation that alternates between life in medieval and modern times. Of course, there is nothing in the Koran or any religious writing of Mohammad about what women can drive. One can only assume they rode camels in his day. There are reports Saudi women living in rural areas enjoy more freedom when it comes to driving since reality takes precedence over the faith of a small minded men.
Last month a new group of women named, Committee of Demanders Of Woman's Right to Drive" collected 3,000 signatures. We can assume they did not drive around to round up the signatures. For some reason there apparently is no driving reason on the part of the government to halt this project.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Ravens running back Ray Rice will not play today versus the Bengals. With the Ravens having already locked up the AFC North and playing for just the No. 3 or No. 4 seed in the playoffs, they have decided to rest him instead. That means rookie running back Bernard Pierce will get the start.
Fantasy Analysis:
Say hello to reason No. 39,203 why playing for a fantasy football title in Week 17 is ill-advised. Healthy studs who would never be sitting in any other week are going to be inactive today, and it screws everything up. Also, consider that if the Ravens are willing to rest Rice, they are probably thinking about doing the same with Joe Flacco, Torrey Smith, Anquan Boldin and Dennis Pitta. I would get all of those guys out of my lineup right now.
However, I would pick up and start Pierce. He is averaging more than five yards per carry for the season and averaged close to nine yards per carry last week. He has been able to catch the ball a little and is coming off his first 100-yard game. I think he is well within RB2 territory today.

If you want to keep your brain healthy as you age, exercise your body. That, in essence, is the conclusion of four clinical trials, the results of which were reported at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in Vancouver, British Columbia, early last month.
The most ambitious study, of 120 sedentary senior citizens, was conducted at the University of Pittsburgh. Walking for exercise slows the memory loss associated with Alzheimer's, report researchers headed by psychology professor Kirk Erickson, Ph.D.
One group of seniors in the study walked for 30 to 45 minutes three days a week. The other just stretched and toned.
After a year, the walkers increased the size of their hippocampus, the region of the brain associated with memory, by 2 percent, as measured with MRIs. Most Alzheimer's patients suffer significant shrinking of the hippocampus.
The Pitt researchers also found growth in the prefrontal cortex, the region of the brain associated with decision making and related activities psychologists call executive function. The more fit the patient, the larger the growth in the prefrontal cortex.
"I would say this is pretty dramatic," Mr. Erickson said. "This is only after one year of exercise and moderate intensity at that."
Though it's clear moderate exercise can reduce the risk of cognitive impairment in older adults, very little is known yet about why exercise is good for brain health, or, what, exactly, is the relationship between a larger hippocampus and better memory, he said.
In a six-month study of women ages 70 to 80, researchers at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver found that walking and resistance training (lifting weights) improved significantly performance on the Stroop Test, which measures a person's ability to sustain attention with and without interference. It's commonly used to measure the brain's vitality and flexibility. Only the weight lifters had positive changes in the brain regions associated with memory.
"Twice-weekly resistance training is a promising strategy to alter the trajectory of cognitive decline in seniors with MCI [mild cognitive impairment]," said Teresa Liu-Ambrose, Ph.D., who supervised the graduate students who conducted the study.
In a separate yearlong study of 155 women ages 65-75, UBC researchers also found that weight lifting and walking maintained cognitive function. Those who functioned at a higher level at the start of the clinical trial improved more than those with lower cognitive function, which was not the result the researchers were expecting.
A Japanese study over a year of 47 seniors ages 65 to 93 found that those who exercised for 90 minutes a day improved significantly their ability to use language.
"These latest studies show that resistance training is emerging as particularly valuable for older adults," said William Thies, chief medical and scientific officer for the Alzheimer's Association.
Having trouble walking could be a sign of a decline of cognitive function, concluded "gait analysis" studies reported at the Alzheimer's Association conference.
Seniors walk slower, their pace and the lengths of the steps they take varies more as their cognitive function declines, according to a Swiss study of 1,153 seniors with an average age of 77.
"Those with Alzheimer's dementia walked slower than those with MCI, who in turn walked slower than those who were cognitively healthy," said Stephanie A. Bridenbaugh, M.D., of the Basel Mobility Center, who led the study.
A Dutch study of 1,232 people age 49 and older found that the speed with which seniors process information is associated with the rhythm aspect of gait; executive function is associated with pace and variability, and fine motor speed is associated with how well seniors perform a tandem walk (where the heel of the front foot is placed directly touching the toes of the back foot). These researchers did not find any association between gait and memory.
These studies don't break a lot of new ground, said Carol Schramke, a neuropsychologist with the Neuromuscular Center at Allegheny General Hospital, North Side.
"We've always talked about people who can't walk and chew gum at the same time," Dr. Schramke said.
The gait studies are like the buzz a few years ago that indicated a deterioration in the sense of smell can be a warning sign for Alzheimer's, she said.
Though helpful as indicators, gait studies and smell tests can't replace a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment to diagnose a patient's cognitive status, Dr. Schramke said.
"None of these things are perfect, but they're all pieces of the puzzle," she said.

Letter to the Editor: Need for reflection on transportation package
Without getting into too much detail, I find the public commentaries supporting the recently passed transportation package to be offensive.
It is a regressive tax that basically rewards the department whose lack of priorities produced the present situation of deficient bridges and mediocre roads. Additionally, a significant portion of the revenue is slated to go to municipal transportation in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia that bear no relationship to the "user fees" associated with the tax.
Further, Rep. David Reed's assertion that 50,000 jobs will be created by taking $2.3 billion out of the private sector and putting it in the public sector is a cruel joke. Has it been so long since the 2009 stimulus package that we forget that transferring money from one sector to another at best presents a wash and at worst makes thing worse?
Then there's the pork.
To paraphrase Everett Dirksen, $40 million here, $40 million there and soon you're talking real money.
A recent letter from a retired general suggesting that this funding would provide a cure for obese kids by providing more walking and biking trails, however, really took the cake.
First, I walk the Hoodlebug occasionally and really can't remember seeing any obese kids there — not even many kids at all. Second, what does a retired general know about obese kids? And third, what is a letter from Lancaster doing in the Gazette? There's something going on here.
Timothy L. Wilson
• EDITOR'S NOTE: We printed the letter by the retired general from Lancaster because he praised two local legislators, state Sen. Don White and state Rep. Reed, for backing the transportation package.

She had long, wavy blonde hair and wore a demure black suit.

Boland is an immature kid with a lean, unsmiling face, ice-blue eyes, and wavy blond hair.
Yet her undeniable beauty, her fair skin and her wavy hair, were facts to be reckoned with.
And her hair must be wavy and light with a little tinge of gold in it.

Here are dark caverns, crosses, confusion and wavy, broken and crooked lines.
It was a very dark brown or black colour, wavy or almost straight and sometimes curly, never "woolly."

Office Chair Designed For Mobile Device Use
Steelcase has studied how the body interacts with our various tech and has created seating that supports these postures.
Steelcase has introduced a chair designed to support people's interactions with modern technologies. Inspired by the movement of the human body, 'Gesture' was created for the way we work today. It is similar in theory to the 'Curious Rituals' project that categorized new gestures we've adopted to control digital devices.
The company undertook a global posture study in 11 countries, observing 2,000 people, and uncovered nine new postures. These include the 'cocoon' where the user curls up with a piece of technology, and the 'strunch' where they lean over a desk to look closely at a computer.
Steelcase created the chair by looking at the movements and gestures of the body, designing it to support posture changes influenced by the devices we use today. The back and seat move as a synchronized system to provide continuous and persistent support, and the back cradles the user in all positions.
The chair's arm moves like the user's arm, which allows them to be supported in any position, whether they are texting on a smartphone, typing on a keyboard or swiping a tablet. The seat provides comfort all the way to the edges and is flexible at the perimeter to allow seating in a range of postures without obstruction. 'Gesture' is also easily adjustable and can meet the needs of each individual user. You can learn more about the chair in the video below:

Embark on an RPG adventure and escape to a fantasy world filled with bizarre creatures. Take the role of Atsuma, Enchanter in-training, and transform from a naive student to the most powerful savior in a war 1,000 years in the making.
Super Gamer Dude
Xbox 360
The game is the first Japanese RPG game for Xbox 360, and it is already unimpressive and passive. Enchanted Arms is just as closely, almost copied from, FINAL FANTASY game. It is so sad that even the music it plays is so familiar, it gives you goose bumps. But nonetheless, this game is still worth playing.
Because the story is so predictable, but this is what role-playing game is for, isnÂ't it? But this game can take a normal player for almost two days max. The main character, Atsuma, suffered from memory loss discovers himself having a very powerful ability that can save the world. He is a student at Enchant University where he studies enchanting. Because the humans are so powerful that they can create servants and they are called golems. So, millennium ago the golems turned against the humans and created the Golem War. Fast forward to the present, AtsumaÂ's destiny to save the universe is revealed and a mysterious right arm that produces his power. AtsumaÂ's quest continues battling not just golems but humans too. He battles with many other creatures and going through dungeons and the like.
The good thing about Enchanted Arms is that it has many ground battles. Because it is an RPG game, you may have as much as 4 players or characters in your party. You assign orders to these characters and you just click go and specific actions are carried out.
Once you are in the battle, your character can automatically regenerate back their health. But if your vitality point, it will be impossible to do so. So you have to reach a replenishing station. Keeping extra character is required in the game to be swapped. Having an extra character saves you time to go through vitality areas.
There are so many golems in the game. More than 100 different golems are found in Enchanted Arms. Each golem has special abilities. There are also strong golems to watch out for. You can take as much golems as possible. You can do this in ranked or unranked battle. The game is not as good with multiplayer though. But it can be interesting to do multiplayer since you can acquire skills through experimentation and apply it to single play.
The sound of Enchanted Arms is good, though the English voice part seems to give you nightmares. English voice acting is totally bad to listen to. The music is so familiar, like most RPGs. But the presentation is a so-so. The character is fair enough with its details. It isnÂ't as bad as it seems but the graphics is not as expected of an RPG game considering it to be in Xbox 360 platform.

When you think salad, you probably think healthy. Generally, salads ARE healthier than a burger and fries. But we do things to salads that ruin the healthy status of our field of greens. Lots of things. One at a time, lest we get over whelmed. Since they're all bad, we'll go in no particular order.
How to ruin a salad #2: Creamy dressing
This is an easy one. And likely one you're quite familiar with already. Adding blobs of ranch or creamy Italian to a bed of greens can skyrocket the calorie and fat content of your good-intended healthy salad.
Consider that one tablespoon of ranch dressing has 73 calories (68 calories from saturated fat). Trust me, you use more than one tablespoon on your salad.
And don't be fooled by "low-fat" versions (for anything!). The fat is just replaced by sugar or sugar substitutes. If you're gonna do it I'd rather you get the full fat version. It's actually better for you, in a way.
How to fix it
Oil and vinegar based salad dressings are an improvement. But don't choose one without checking out the carbohydrates (sugar) and sodium content. Shoot for as low as possible in both cases.
The best thing to do is make your own oil and vinegar salad dressing at home. Just mix together extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar in 2 to 1 ratio. Two parts EVOO, one part balsamic. You can adjust this ratio to suit your tastes.
Also try adding dried herbs to the dressing to add another layer of flavor. Some salt and pepper works too.
If you've got a taste for asian, try ginger dressing. Be aware not to get the creamy type here too. You're looking for straight blended ginger. It has to be kept cool so look in the produce section with the bagged salads. Ginger dressing goes great on salad with shrimp and carrots.

To Make the Most of Curly Hair
Your best cut: All curly hair isn't created equal. The most flattering crop depends on whether you have loose waves or tight ringlets. Celebrity stylist Sarah Potempa suggests seeing a stylist who specializes in cutting hair dry. This way, she can more accurately see how your curls fall and snip accordingly. But in general "curly hair should never be worn one length, which can give you the dreaded pyramid effect," says Labrecque. Also verboten is razor cutting, which can slash already fray-prone curls and leave them frizzier.
How to style it: Use hydrating shampoo and conditioner. The outer cuticle layer of curly hair tends to lift up; the extra moisture may help strengthen weak strands and prevent breakage. Next, add a nickel-size drop of styling cream (more if your hair is thick) to towel-dried hair. Then shape your hair into twists and dry it naturally or with a diffuser. If you want looser curls, finish by winding sections of hair around a large-barrel curling iron. It may seem counterintuitive, but this can straighten coils a bit.

Yeah, I do that all the time myself. In my experience, the worst thing if you're not eating because of stress is to let it go overnight, that wrecks your appetite for at least the next week. Possibly a worse idea is to go twenty to thirty hours without food due to stress and then suddenly eat two hot dogs fried in butter. That was delicious though.

Sarah Silverman Shows Off Her 'Liquid Pot' on 2014 Emmys Red Carpet [VIDEO]
While most female celebs may carry a lipgloss or a mint in their clutch on the 2014 Emmy Awards red carpet, Sarah Silverman brought something a little more helpful: some weed.
As she opened up her clutch to E! host Giuliana Rancic, the comedienne pulled out a "vape pen," which she explained as "my pot. My liquid pot." While Rancic quickly wanted to change the subject, it was clear that Silverman had absolutely no shame.
And when she talked to NBC's 1st Look reporter, Silverman once again took another opportunity to talk about the pot in her purse, and this time she definitely seemed a little, uh, out of it — and many took notice, with various different news outlets (not to mention Twitter) deeming that, without a doubt, she was high already.
Hey — it's already in her bag. It definitely wouldn't be that far of a stretch!
Watch Sarah Silverman reveal her "liquid pot" in the video above.

REPORT: B2K's Raz B In Coma, Serious Condition
28-year-old De'Mario Monte Thornton (a.k.a. Raz-B of B2K) was sent to the hospital last Thursday after being hit in the face with a glass bottle at a Chinese nightclub during a performance. After being released, he was brought back the next day after he could not be woken up. Doctors are testing for brain activity, and his condition remains serious.
Reports say that Thornton was struck by the glass bottle while he was trying to break up a fight that started in the middle of his show. He underwent minor surgery after being brought to the police station along with his attacker for questioning.
Raz-B is the founding member of R&B group B2K, producing hits "Bump, Bump, Bump" and "Uh Huh" with singers Omarion, Lil' Fizz, and J-Boog. Since the group's breakup in 2004, Raz-B has released a mixtape and has been touring in China while working on a solo project.

Acheron, 6.5 Months
So, I noticed it won't be long until my little Acheron is 7 months old. And he isn't so little anymore! He is now 60 lbs (maybe a little chunky :p). Guess it's time for an update for those of you who don't see my constant ones on our facebook group lol! :D Just a bit longer and he'll be bigger than Schatzi, Koda and Shoba! :wild:
I have tons more pics, but it's a pain to get them the proper size. Sooo. Here's what I'll upload for now. Some pics of Koda bear coming later tonight. The last one is just for fun: three butts in the air as they dig like crazy in the sand at the beach!
For anyone wondering, we did go to DC for a little while. We are back in Ga right now to help out since my mother had surgery. (:
Awww... cute pictures and love that name. :)
Thank you (: We were surprised he let us stack him that easily. Wish the trotting one wasn't zoomed in... Would have been a great movement shot lol!!!
And thank you again! His entire litter has mythology-based names, and I couldn't resist his once I saw him.
He is so handsome and long legged! :wub:
Thank you! (:
I tell everyone he's half deer lol. :wub:

Choosing a Cricket Bat: Peformance vs. Endurance
As club players we all want gun bats that last for years.
But the way bats are made means that you are going to have to choose between the two.
You see, each piece of willow was once a living thing. Each one has the variety of attributes associated with something found in the wild.
Bat makers will tell you that as each piece of wood is different it is hard to find any correlation between the numbers of grains and how well a bat will perform.
The number of grains can however give you an idea of how the bat will work over time.
The more grains on a bat, the stronger the wood.
This means the bat maker can afford to press the bat less to strengthen it initially, thus making the bat springier; giving the bat good 'ping' or better rebound attributes.
These bats have a shorter life time as they are pressed less hard; hence why pros use narrow grain bats to take advantage of these attributes with a disposable attitude if they break.
They can afford to chuck a broken one away several times a season.
Us mere mortals that have to buy our own bats need to strike a better balance.
A wider grain bat will need to be pressed more during its crafting. These bats have a longer life time due to their 'harder' feel.
A good way to think about it is that narrower grain bats will score runs quicker often from a shorter life time compared with a wider grain bat, that will score just as many runs but over a longer period.
Which do you prefer when looking for a bat?

GM seller in UK selling a bat with a promised to be a great ping bat . However, the bat has 6 grains but they are faded or fading and not very clear. I hesitant to buy but his reasoning is that the bat willow is soft which made the grains faded but the ping is great. My argument is if the bat is soft the willow will damage soon. Any feedback on faded or fainted Willow grains?

The Americans have a saying: "You're better off being lucky than good... and you'd better be lucky, because you're no damn good."
Over the past 10 days the exploits of Roy Hodgson's England have given this a whole new meaning. In the first match the side saw dozens of shots on goal by France fizz just wide of the goal, while a solitary attempt on target at the other end found the back of the net. Then, against Sweden, Theo Walcott's speculative punt goalwards somehow got lost behind a sea of defenders, wrongfooting the goalkeeper on its way in. And on Tuesday night, Ukraine were denied an equaliser when John Terry was wrongly adjudged to have cleared the ball off the line, a blunder that appears to have finally undone Michel Platini's insistence that an extra pair of human eyes will do a better job than a digital camera shooting 1000 frames per second and reporting back to a top-of-the-range computer.
So lucky were England, in fact, that the Ukrainian's phantom goal could have been given and the hosts scored again without stopping the Three Lions from roaring into the quarter-finals. That's because France's capitulation against Sweden would have left England able to lose by one goal and still progress on goals scored.
Fans and pundits alike are asking how long that luck will last - but when you start getting the rub of the green in a big tournament, history suggests that it lasts until the end, as our round-up of the top 10 luckiest sports stars and teams of all time shows.
- - - -
Fred Couples at the 1992 Masters
The loveable American golfer's attempt to win The Masters at Augusta in 1992 looked doomed when his tee shot to the terrifying par-3 12th started rolling back down the slope towards Rae's Creek. Somehow, though, his ball defied the laws of physics to stop half-way down an incline so steep that Couples could struggled to take his stance to play his next shot.
Local journalist Furman Bisher claimed he had never before seen a ball stop on that slope in 42 years of covering the Masters, but Couples took full advantage of what he called "the biggest break in my life" to save par and go on to win by two shots.
Diego Maradona gets away with worst handball ever
The Argentine superstar was many things, but tall was not one of them. Yet it apparently never occurred to either referee or linesman that the only way the 5'5" striker could have outjumped 6'1" Peter Shilton for a ball was by using his hand. Yet that's what he got away after 51 minutes of the quarter-final of the 1986 World Cup against England in Mexico. Maradona's second goal three minutes later is probably the greatest ever scored in the history of the game, but England pulled one back and were rightly aggrieved to go out 2-1.
Boston College Eagles beat Miami Hurricanes to NCAA title
72,319 people were at The Orange Bowl in 1984 to witness one of the craziest finishes ever seen in an American football game. Boston trailed 45-41 deep in their own half with only 28 seconds left, while home side Miami's players admitted later that they "thought they had won" already since they merely needed to keep their opponents battened down.
But Boston were doubly lucky: after creeping up towards the half-way line on fourth down and with only six seconds left, quarterback Doug Flutie narrowly avoided getting sacked before heaving the ball as hard as he possibly could from his own 37 yard line into the 30mph wind blowing straight at him. The crowd watched in amazement as his superhuman throw somehow made it towards the end zone, gasped as Miami defenders Reggie Sutton and Darrell Fullington ran into each other, ooohed as the duo regathered themselves to jump for the ball, winced as it carried on sailing clean through their outstretched hands, and were finally left open-mouthed as Boston's Gerry Phelan managed to grab it for a winning touchdown just as the clock ran out.
Steven Bradbury wins Olympic speed skating gold
The Australian short track speed skater was happy just to have made it to the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, and thrilled when a series of freak collisions and disqualifications somehow helped him make the final. What came next, however, was a masterstroke of riding your luck: like a Blackjack player sticking on 12 and hoping the dealer busts, he skated around in the final a clear 20 yards behind the four runaway leaders. It looked to have backfired when the race came into the final bend with the Aussie still miles behind, but the leading quartet all took each other out as they jostled for the win, leaving Bradbury to skate over the line and collect the Aussie's first ever Winter Olympic gold.
Leeds gifted Challenge Cup final by Don Fox
Wakefield trailed arch-rivals Leeds heading into the final few minutes of the 1968 Challenge Cup final at Wembley, but Wakefield gritted their teeth and scored an amazing try under the posts with the final move of the match. All the veteran kicker had to do was knock over the conversion and Wakefield would win the match 12-11. Somehow, however, he spooned the kick wide of the uprights to make Leeds the luckiest winners in the tournament's history.
Nick Faldo wins five Majors thanks to others woes
He is England's most successful golfer of modern times, but Faldo is also its luckiest, at least when it came to his Major victories. He won the 1987 Open when Paul Azinger bogeyed the final two holes; the won the 1989 Masters when Scott Hoch missed a 12-inch putt on the first hole of a play-off; he won the 1990 Masters thanks to Ray Floyd hooking his ball into a pond on the second hole of a play-off; he won the 1992 Open thanks to John Cook missing a three-footer on the penultimate hole and bogeying the last; and he won the 1996 Masters thanks to Greg Norman producing perhaps the most incredible meltdown ever seen in the game as he blew a six-shot lead. Sure, he was good enough to be the next best player on the day and inherit those wins - but without a healthy slice of luck he'd never have pocketed five of his six Majors.
Allan Wells becomes fastest man in the world
The Scottish sprinter was doubly lucky to become the Olympic gold medallist at the 100m in Moscow in 1980. Firstly, most of his main competitors for the medal were not even at the Games thanks to the US boycott. And secondly, a split-second decision to chance a glance across at Cuba's Silvio Leonard during the race told him that he needed to dip through the tape to have any chance of a win. He dipped at a crazy angle, and though both runners were given a time of 10.25 seconds (in cold and blustery conditions) it was Wells who came out on top of the photo finish. Wells, incidentally, later beat the USA's top two sprinters that year, Mel Lattany and Stanley Floyd, in an exhibition showdown.
Chicago Bulls end up getting Michael Jordan
The Bulls had only the third pick in the 1984 NBA draft, but luckily for them the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers were both in desperate need of defensive players. That left the Bulls free to pick College Player of the Year Jordan... who went on to become player of the century.
England win the 2005 Ashes
Michael Vaughan's team - including Freddie Flintoff, Kevin Pietersen, Michael Trescothick and Simon Jones all at the height of their powers - looked on course to get blown away in the 2005 Ashes after being destroyed by Glenn McGrath in the opening Test at Lord's. But then McGrath injured himself treading on a ball while warming up ahead of the second Test at Edgbaston. England looked to have got themselves into a winning position, only for a late stand to bring Australia within two runs of victory. Enter Lady Luck once more, however, when Michael Kasprowicz was wrongly given out to rescue victory from the jaws of defeat for England and level the series.
It was the second-closest margin of victory ever in Test cricket, and set England on the road to victory - helped by more luck that included another injury to Glenn McGrath, substitute fielder Gary Pratt running out Ricky Ponting at a key moment of the fourth Test to help England win, and a string of uncharacteristic dropped catches by the tourists, including Shane Warne on the final day of the series, shelling Pietersen on 15, and allowing the batsman to go on and score 158.
Lleyton Hewitt wins the US Open and Wimbledon
Sometimes luck is a dumb fluke, sometimes it's an opponent's misfortune, and sometimes it's a power vacuum to let lesser stars shine more brightly. That was the case for Australian tennis star Hewitt, a former world number one whose career peak happened to coincide with the lull in between the decline of Pete Sampras and the emergence of Roger Federer. Hewitt - US Open winner in 2001 and Wimbledon champion in 2002 - was not the only player to benefit, with the same era also witnessing two other journeymen world number ones in Juan Carlos Ferrero and Carlos Moya. Harsh judgement? Perhaps, but then consider how many more Grand Slams Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal would both have won had the other not been active at the same time.
