Michelle Williams: The Family That Wouldn't Give Up Hope
Michelle Williams: The Family That Wouldn't Give Up Hope
After his massive stroke, the doctors had all but given up on my father. But not us, not his family.
We were all there, the whole Williams family; every relative that lived close to my parents' Illinois home had gathered around my dad's hospital bed. Mom is one of eight, and almost all of them are ministers, so you can imagine the prayer that was going on in that room.
Help would have to come from God, because the doctors had already talked to Mom about withdrawing life support.
"We don't think he's going to make it," they said.
Gospel music filled the room, but there was no response from Dad. No expression on his face, no change in the slow, anguished breathing, no fluttering of the eyelids, no grip in the hand I was holding. My music group, Destiny's Child, had just finished our final tour.
I'd been home the month before to throw my grandmother, Dad's mom, an 85th birthday party and had seen all the family then.
What a happy time that was. Running errands for Mom and Dad, picking up my nieces from school, babysitting, cooking up some mac and cheese and banana pudding, my favorites, just like always.
Now everything had changed. Dad had had a stroke, his second one, and unlike with the first, it didn't look as if he'd recover. I remembered that first stroke as if it happened yesterday. My whole world stopped.
I was a freshman in high school. Mom had gone down to a church convention in Memphis for the weekend. It was a Sunday morning and with Mom gone, Daddy got us ready for church. He didn't say anything, just tapped me on the shoulder and gestured. Nothing unusual about that.
Mom was the one who made noise in the morning, calling down the hall, "Get yourselves dressed, children, we're heading out the door in five minutes!" Dad was quieter. Did I notice that he didn't say anything in the car either? No. He just dropped us off and drove on. I figured he had an errand to run.
During worship he would be up in the sound booth, doing the audio, like every Sunday.
But at the end of the service he wasn't anywhere to be found. Not at coffee hour or Sunday school. It was Granny who showed up in her car to take us home.
"Get in, kids." She looked worried, but you could see she was trying to hide that from us. "Your daddy's in the hospital," she said "He's had a stroke. Your mom's on her way back from Memphis. I'm sure everything will be fine. The doctors will take good care of him."
Daddy evidently knew something was wrong as soon as he woke up. He couldn't hear well. Found it hard to talk. He took us to church and then drove straight to the ER. Someone there must have called Granny.
I hate to think now of the danger he put himself in, driving like that after a stroke, he should have called 911.
I don't think he knew what was going on, but checking into the hospital was the right thing to do. And dropping us at church first? Well, God always came first in our family. Still I think God would have understood. The sooner you get medical help at the merest sign of a stroke, the better.
I should know. I've become an ambassador for the American Heart Association's Power to End Stroke campaign and I make a point of letting people know things like that. But that's now and this was then.
Dad had all the risk factors for stroke: diabetes, high blood pressure, and smoking even though he didn't smoke that much. Mom's a nurse and after Daddy came home she had a battle plan. No more pie à la mode. No smoking. A list of exercises.

Need to examine the Niners recent ability to judge OL draft talent by regime:
Pre-McCloughan Era (2003-2004):
1st-rounder Harris had some good run-blocking skills, but not the feet to be a pass-protection OT. Never understood why Harris wasn't tried at OG.
2nd-rounder Smiley was probably the best OL drafted with a high pick by the Niners this decade. Outstanding puller from the OG position and very tough, often playing through injuries that sidelined Jennings. A real loss when McCloughan decided not to pay him, and Parcels did.
7th-rounder Heitmann was well-coached at Stanford, very cerebral, and responsive to prro coaching. Filling the void between Newberry's collapse and the development of Baas, Heitmann developed his body, used his PT experience at OG, and grabbed the starting C job. Heitmann's secret is that he continued to develop in a major way, after being drafted.
McCloughan Era:
McNolan admittedly had Jacksonville envy. They coveted size above other traits, and Warhop was a straight ahead blocking OL coach. Draft picks were made to fit this vision.
2nd-rounder Baas was a spur-of-the-moment, on-the-clock pick, when NE selected Logan Mankins with the preceeding pick. Selected primarily as Center insurance for the debilitating Newberry, Baas has really never played the position for which he was drafted. He has been injury-prone, but somewhat effective as a straight-ahead blocker. His pass protection and pulling performance at OG have been more spotty. Is Baas starting-OG quality? I'm not sure. Is he playing out of his best position? Is he starting C quality? I have no idea.
3rd-rounder Snyder was an all Pac-10 LOT at Oregon, who was drafted with being an NFL OG in mind. His versatility has been a valuable team asset, but he has played more games at OT than OG. Is he playing out of his best position? Who knows?
1st-rounder Staley was the "last true 1st rounder" on the Niner draft board when he was selected at #27. Staley seems to have the right stuff to surpass Smiley as the best Niner OL draft pick of the decade. He is tough and has natural leadership ability. He did a fine job at RT, before being moved to LT. If the club drafted a LT in the 2010 draft, moving Staley back to RT, would not seem to involve much risk.
4-rounder Wallace was selected as Heitmann's back-up, after the club decided that Baas was going to be an OG only. Great college stats in the Big 12, but not a good Senior Bowl. The fact that Wallace has only suited-up for 1 of 32 eligible games, seems reason enough to call him a bust.
2nd-rounder Rachal was a raw player, with a rather high waist for an OG. I first thought that he might start at OG and eventually be moved to RT, because of his body type. Clearly, Rachal is not responding to Foerster's coaching. I would like to see how Rachal would develop under a different OL coach, in order to really make a judgement on him.
FA Wragge has been a good interior OL complement to Snyder, in that he is versatile enough to play 3 positions, C, LG or RG. Wragge is strong, but slow, more of a straight-ahead guy, not quick enough to pull effectively. He earned Nolan's respect and a place on the team with his toughness and durability
Many other OL have passed through the Niner ranks via FA and UDFA signings over recent years. The current "stickees" include OT Pashos and OT Boone. Carolina was considering switching Pashos from RT to OG, before he left there to sign with the Niners as an OT. Pashos might be better used by the Niners as an OG. Who knows? Boone seems to be a lot like Harris. Nice kid, hard worker, slow feet.
So, lot of questions here about evaluating talent in the pre-draft period, even with a lot of close-up Senior Bowl observation advantage. Also lots of questions about whether guys are being used at their best positions. Also lots of questions about the lack of skills being taught to these guys by the OL coach. Also a fundamental question of whether the "size" criteria will continue to rule, or whether a different specification needs to be used to select OL (for example, mobility). I support re-defing the criteria with a new OL coach in the McKittrick mold (Mike Solari?).
And, yes, my recollection is the same as yours. The Jets did bring-in a veteran OG from the Steelers to compelment the rookies in re-building their OL. Don't remember the name or know if he is still there.

Welcome to the Fifa 09 achievement guide and road map to 1000g. This years Fifa is something special and by far the greatest Football game ever made.
There are a total of 48 achievements, 8 of which require you to play Online. Thankfully there are no challenge mode achievements this year.
Abbreviated Walkthrough:
And I suggest keeping a list of what stadiums you have won in.
Step #1 - Arena Achievements:
One the game loads up, you'll be in the arena. Once here, get the following achievement:
Gimme Five
Time you played a match yet?
All you have to do here is score 20 goals in the arena for these 2.
Step #2 - Goalscoring, Buying/Selling, Miscellenneous and The Purist Achievements:
Start a brand new manager mode season, play through the whole season without simming any matches, if done correctly, you should get "The Purist" once complete.
Before starting, make sure you change your currency to Dollars ($$$).
Along the way, you should get the following achievements.
Goalscoring achievements:
What a Beauty!
Wing Play
Like on the training field
Fling yourself at it
In off
On yer bike!
One goal a season
Good head on your shoulders
On the spot

Step #3 - Be-A-Pro Achievements:
Following my Instructions for Living Legend should net you the 2 Be-A-Pro achievements:
Provider (Keep playing until you get this, then sim the rest of the games)
Club God
Living Legend
When playing the Final, make sure you win.
Step #4 - Other Miscelleneous Achievements:

1. Custom Sixty-Four Winner
2. One Star Winners

4. The Kwong
5. The Parolin Manoeuvre
6. Giant Killer
7. Jonzo's Lounge
Follow the steps in the guide and you'll be fine.

Real World Winner
Ranked Winner
1st Time Out
A.Bell Fever
The Gipson Curse
The Poon Sang
The Venhola Ice
Step #6 - Frequent Flyer, The Peterson, and a Mop Up:
Almost there now, just a few more achievements left.
Frequent Flyer - If you were clever and listened to what I said, you should have kept a list of what Stadiums you need to win in, you should only have around 10-20 stadiums left to win in.
The Peterson - All thats left now is The Peterson, play for 50 hours. This can be done On and Offline. Use the time you spend trying to get The Peterson to go for any achievements you may have missed along the way.
Overall, the achievements are not that hard, just time consuming. By the time you finally get The Peterson, you should have everything else.
Remember, if your struggling to get a certain achievement, USE THE BOOSTING THREAD! Which can be found here:
Also, feel free to PM me with any Questions, or leave a message on this topic.

Bend it like a Pro - 15
Score from a free kick in a match.
This achievement can be quite challenging, even with a boosting partner or 2nd controller. The way I managed to get it was too aim for the top corner nearest to the keeper (so you dont have to worry about putting the ball over the wall). When shooting, hold , and fill your power bar about 1/4 of the way up. If it doesn't work first time, just keep trying, it'll come eventually. You can also unlock the "In Off" achievement by doing this, just as I did.
You are given a freekick when the opposing team fouls you anywhere on the pitch apart from the penalty area.
Screamer! - 10
Score from over 30 yards out in a match.
This is very easy to do if you get yourself a boosting partner or 2nd controller. Just have the other person bring their keeper out () and shoot from around the kick off spot by holding .
On the spot - 5
Score from a penalty in a match.
If you dont already know, a penalty is awarded when you are fouled in the opposition penalty area. Just play a cup game and purposely let the game go to penalties, as long as you score 1, you'll unlock the achievement.
Or, if you cant be bothered doing that just get a boosting partner/2nd controller and get them to give you a penalty. If you're lucky you'll get this by just playing, but these 2 methods are extremely easier.
Good head on your shoulders - 10
Score with a header in a match.
This doesn't need much explaining, all you have to do is score a goal with your head, you can either do this by crossing the ball into the box and pressing , or taking a corner and pressing . It'll come in time.
Can be done with 2 pads
One goal a season - 10
Score with a defender in a match.
This achievement is simple, just score a goal with a defender, if you're not sure who is and isn't a defender, press pause and go to team management and look at your team, defenders are players who are either, LB, LCB, LWB, CB, SW, RCB, RWB or RB. Also, defenders will have small yellow icons next to their names in team management.
Can be done with 2 pads
Eat my chip - 10
Score by chipping the keeper in a match.
Not too hard, when your about to shoot, hold + and your player should chip the ball over the keeper into the net. Shouldn't take more than a few tries.
Can be done with 2 pads
On yer bike! - 30
Score with a bicycle kick in a match.
This is quite tricky as Bicycle Kicks are not performed that often.
Give the ball to your winger and run down the wing, just before you run out of play, cross it by double tapping . As the ball is coming to your player hold and double tap . This IS a hard acheivement, but will come with hard work. If you haven't got it already, you should unlock the "What a beauty" achievement as well.
View a Bicycle Kick goal here:
In Off - 20
Score off the woodwork in a match.
For this achievement, you must score a goal, BUT, before you score, the ball must hit the post or bar before going in.
This pretty hard, I got mine at the same time as the freekick achievement, apart from that, I dont really know what else to suggest.
Can be done with 2 pads
Fling yourself at it - 20
Score with a diving header in a match.
For this, pick Chelsea as your team (if you want is a.s.a.p) as Drogba is the player who does diving headers the most on the game. I reccomend you play against a 1/2 star team.
I've been told that the best way to get this achievement is to give you're opponent a corner, then, once the corner has been taken, win the ball and fast break (Basically give it to one of your wingers and leg it). Once to get to around the edge of the penalty area, double tap to cross the ball, and double tap to do a diving header. If you successfully perform a diving header, the player will land on his chest. Once it goes in, achievement unlocked.

Like on the training ground - 10
Score from a corner in a match.
Not really anything to explain, when you get a corner, fill your power bar about 3/4 of the way up and keep tapping , if you win the ball you're player will either head it or volley it, and if the ball goes in, achievement unlocked.
You dont have to score from the actual corner kick and can be done with 2 pads
Wing Play - 10
Score from a cross.
Have one of your players run down the wing and cross the ball in (), and press to shoot, this may take a few tries but you'll get a goal eventually.

Score on the volley in a match.
A volley is when you shoot without letting the ball hit the ground, in other words, in mid-air. The easiest way to perform a volley is to cross the ball into the box, and double tap when facing towards the goal. The ball MUST hit the back of the net before hitting the ground.

Hero - 10
Save a penalty.
The easiest way to get this would be to be boost or use a seond controller, and give away a penalty, but make sure that you tell each other what you're doing.
Or, if you dont have a boosting partner, you can play a cup match (Or normal k.o, I did it in a cup game on manager mode) and purposely let the match go to penalties, then work your way from there, you'll probaly save at least one.
Director in the making - 10
Upload a video to EA sports football world.
Really simple, start any match and play for a few minutes. After about 5 minutes, press Start. From here go to Instant Replay and let it load up, re-wind the video to the start and then press the button, choose a slot for it to go in and wait for it to upload, once it gets to 100%, the achievement will pop up. This can also be done in the arena.
Giant Killer - 15
Beat a five star team with a half start team.
Start a new match and for your team choose a team with a rating of 1/2 star. I myself used Bury. For the opposition pick a 5 star team, I picked Chelsea. Just play through the match and win. The achievement will pop up at the end.

Last gasp goal - 19
Score in the 89th minute.
Pretty self-explanatory, just score a goal in the 89th minute of a match, if your not sure, the 89th minute is from 89:00 - 89:59 on the game clock.
Or, find yourself a boosting partner, and just before the 89th minute, have him/her bring their keeper out (), leaving you to just put the ball into an empty net.
Can be done with 2 pads.
A Man Down - 20
Win a game when one man down.
Ok for this achievement, the first thing you have to do is get one of your players sent off. You get a player sent off by commiting fouls, the easiest way to do this is to just slide the opposition player (), by doing this you will usually get either a yellow card or a straight red card. If you get a yellow card, just do the same thing again, meaning you will get another yellow card, 2 yellow cards = red card = sent off.
Once you have your player sent off, you must then win the current match. I found the easiest way to do this achievement was to score a few goals and take the lead, and then get a man sent off. This way you dont have to worry about scoring with 10 players instead of 11.
Can be done with 2 pads
Custom sixty four winner - 50
Win a created tournament that starts with 64 teams.
Ok, to do this achievement, do the following:

Game Modes ===> Tournament Mode
Tournament Mode ===> Create Tournament
Set the tournament to the following:
Number Of Team: 64
Auto Fill Teams: No
Tournament Name: (whatever you want, I left mine blank)
Advanced Settings: On
On the next page, just change the "Fixtures V Each Team" to 1.
When filling in the teams, pick someone good like Man United, Chelsea, Barcelona, Inter Milan etc. Then for all the other teams choose teams from Coca Cola League 2 in England.
From here on, you can either play all 6 matches or...
If you've followed what I mentioned to do when choosing teams this should be easy, but just incase, save your game before every match. If you sim and lose, immediately turn your xbox off if you have autosave enabled.
Easier if you turn of autosave and just save after every win and reload if you lose
One star winners - 75
Win a Tournament that starts with sixteen teams, with a one star rated team.
For this one, do the following steps:
Main Menu ===> Game Modes

Auto Fill Teams: No
Tournament Name: (whatever you want, I left mine blank)
Advanced Settings: On
For your team pick a team rated one star (I have highlighted the best ones in red IMO), all one star rated teams are:

Huge investment - 20
Buy a player in Manager Mode for 50 million of your chosen currency.
The easiest way to do this this is the following:
Main Menu ===> Game Modes
Game Modes ===> Manager Mode
Manager Mode ===> New Manager Mode
Choose Manchester United as your team. (Barclays Premier League)
Leave all options as default, BUT CHANGE YOUR CURRENCY TO DOLLAR ($).
Pick any sponsor.
Create a new save and save your manager mode.
From the main manager mode screen go to Menu (Y)
Go to Transfer Central, then to transfer market.
Press Y to search and choose detailed. ONLY CHANGE MIN. OVERALL TO 85.
Then submit search.
If you've done everything right, a list of players should come up. Find KAKA and submit a bid for him (SET THE PRICE TO THE HIGHEST IT WILL GO, AND SET THE WAGES TO THE HIGHEST THEY WILL GO)
Go back to Transfer Central and choose Transfer List.
Find Cristiano Ronaldo, and change his status to "For Sale".
Go back to the main manager mode screen.
Sim your next match.
First of all you should receive a bid for Cristiano Ronaldo, if its over $50 million, sell him, and immediately the achievement "Huge Return" should pop up. If the bid isn't over $50 Mil, just sim the next match and again you should get another offer.
You will also more than likely sign Kaka, and if you did it for over $50, that achievement should pop up to.
Huge Return - 30
Sell a player in Manager Mode for 50 million of your chosen currency.
See "Huge Investment".
Spending Spree - 20
Buy 50 in players in your career in Manager Mode.
Pretty self explanatory, just sign 50 players all together in manager mode.
It doesn't have to be done in one season, it is done over the course of the 15 seasons you spend in manager mode.
I've found that the easiest way of doing this is to start a new manager mode with Manchester United.
From here, go to the transfer market, and search (Detailed) Min Overall: 5 and Max. Overall: 50.
Then, just submit bids for any player's on that list that shows up, make sure you set your bid to the highest, and the players wages to the highest.
Then, go back and sim your game. Afterwards, you'll receive messages off the board saying which players you've signed and who you've not signed. If you dont sign some one, dont worry, just go back to the transfer market and search again.
Once the transfer market shuts, just sim all your games until its open again, and repeat what you've been doing, if you run out of players on the Min: 5 Max: 50 list as you go along, change it to Min: 5 Max: 60.
The purist - 100
Complete a Manager Mode season without simming any games.
Self explanatory, you must complete a season without simming any matches. That mean that you must play every match (Including Cup Games etc.) from start to finish.
If you want to do it as quickly as possible, choose Sydney Fc as your team when you start. (Sydney Fc are in the Australian A-League). The Australian A-League is the smallest league on the game therefore it'll be quicker to do than the Premiership for example. It only has 24 league games, providing you get to the finals, otherwise its 21.
Quite time consuming but keep at it and you'll have it quicker than you'd expect, time you play also goes towards "The Peterson".
Provider - 10
Perform a cross for a friend who scores from it (co-operative achievement).
The easiest way to do this is to get a friend to use a second controller, set up an exhibition match, and both move your controller to the same side.
Once it starts, you win the ball and run down the wing. When neccersary, cross the ball in to your friend () and get him to score. If it doesn't work, just keep trying until your friend manages to score.
If you have one, you can have a 3rd controller control the team your playing against and just leave it, and you can also bing the keeper out with that 3rd controller if it helps.
This can also be done in be-a-pro mode, and be-a-pro mode online, and online clubs. As long as you provide a cross and one of your team mates scores you'll get this.
Frequent flyer - 20
Win in every stadium.
Simple enough, just win one match in every stadium in the game.
There are 48 stadiums in the game, they are:
Allianz Arena
Aloha Park
Camp Nou
Crown Lane
El Bombastico
El Medio
El Reducto
Emirates Stadium
Estadio Azteca
Estadio De Las Artes
Estadio Del Pueblo
Estadio Latino
Estadio Mestalla
Estasio Vincente Calderon
Euro Arena
Euro Park
Football Ground
HSH Nordbank Arena
Ivy Lane
Millenium Stadium
O Dromo
Old Trafford
Olimpico Generico
Parc Des Princes
San Siro
Signal Iduna Park
Square Ground
St James' Park
Stade Gerland
Stade Kokoto
Stade Municipal
Stade Velodrome
Stadio Classico
Stadio Delle Alpi
Stadio Olimpico
Stadion 23. Maj
Stadion Europa
Stadion Hanguk
Stadion Neder
Stadion Olympik
Stamford Bridge
Town Park
Veltins Arena
Wembley Stadium
I reccomend keeping a list of all stadiums you have played in incase you miss any out.
Real world winner - 20
Win 5 Interactive League matches.
To start an Interactive League game follow these steps:
Main Menu ===> Xbox Live
Xbox Live ===> Online Game Modes
Online Game Modes ===> Interactive Leagues
Ranker winner - 10
Win a Ranked XBOX LIVE match.
Self explanatory really, just win a ranked match on xbox live.
You can either go on:
Ranked Quick Match.
BAP: Online Team Play
Fifa 09 Clubs
Online Leagues
Interactive Leagues
Whatever game mode you choose, just pick a strong team, and try your best to win.
If your struggling to get a match find yourself a boosting partner.
Manual labour - 10
Win a match with fully manual settings (no assistance can be switched on).
Ok, for this one, you just have to win with manual settings, if your not sure how to do this, then follow this:
Main Menu ===> My Fifa 09
My Fifa 09 ===> Settings
Settings ===> Xbox 360 Controller Settings
When you reach the 360 controller settings, change the following:
Auto Switching: All the way down (Move the bar as far left as it'll go)
Pass Assistance: Manual
Through Pass Assistance: Manual
Shot Assistance: Manual
Cross Assistance: Manual
Lob Pass Assistance: Manual
Once you've done all this, go to the main menu and start a normal kick off match. Just win the game and the achievement should pop up at the end.

1st time out - 10
Win an Online League match.
Self explanatory really, just win one online league match, if you dont know how to start an online league game, follow these steps:
Main Menu ===> Xbox Live
Xbox Live ===> Online Game Modes
Online Game Modes ===> Online Leagues
If you are struggling to find a league or win a league match, you can use the achievement trading thread, im sure theres someone else who is willing to help you get these if you help them:
Living legend - 50
Reach legendary status for your country.
This achievement must be done in a "Be-A-Pro" season, if you dont want it to take hours, then this is how I did it quickly.
Start off by going to transfers, pick any team to start, it doesn't matter. Once the transfer window comes up, press "" to search for players, choose detailed, and change the "Min Ovr." to 85.
A list of about 6 pages should come up,
IKER Casillas - 91 (Spain)
Javier Zanetti - 86 (Argentina)
Lucio - 87 (Brazil)
Alessandro Nesta - 88 (Italy)
Phillip Lahm - 85 (Germany)
Carles Puyol - 88 (Spain)
Cristiano Ronaldo - 89 (Portugal)
Franck Ribery - 88 (France)
Kaka - 90 (Brazil)
Zlatan Ibrahimovic - 89 (Sweden)
Francesco Totti - 86 (Italy)
Then go into squads, and put these all as starters on Sydney Fc AND USE THE 4-1-2-1-2 FORMATION.
(Main Menu ===> Manage Team ===> Team Management)
Then choose any player off the starters and make them captain, I would suggest "Christiano Ronaldo" as he is by far the best player.
But, if you choose someone else, make sure to also make sure to make the capital of their national country!
Once done, start a new "Be A Pro" season with Sydney Fc, for your player select who ever you made captain.
From there on in, simulate every single one of your matches, and this along with "Club God" should unlock along the way of the 4 seasons. I managed to get Club God after 2 seasons.
At the end of the 4 seasons, you MUST WIN the Be-A-Pro world cup thingy to unlock "Living Legend". So I suggest that you play these matches, just to be sure, because many people have lost out here by simming their Be-A-Pro cup matches.
Club god - 40
Reach legendary status for your club.
Just follow my instructions for "Living Legend".
This will unlock along the way.
Secret Achievements
A.Bell Fever - 20
Catch the A.Bell Fever by beating the creator or someone who has already has the fever.
This is a viral achievement, to get it, you must beat someone who already has it. This must be done over Xbox Live and THE MATCH YOU PLAY DOES NOT HAVE TO BE RANKED.
The achievement is widely spread out so it shouldn't be too hard to get.
But if your struggling to win you can find someone to boost this with here:
The ol' switcheroo - 5
Successfully perfom a pass that switches the play from one flank to the other.
Ok, so basically, what this achievement means, is to perform a pass from one side of the pitch to another. You can do this with any team, in any game mode.
The quickest way to do this to have one of your players get the ball, stand at the side of the best, face towards the side opposite you, and hold down X (Full Power), 9 times out of 10 the ball will go to one of your players and you'll unlock the achievement once the other player gets the ball. If it doesn't work first time, just keep trying until you get it.
Gimme five - 5
Score 5 goals in the arena.
See "Time you played a match?".
Time you played a match? - 15
Score 20 goals in the arena.
All you have to do is score 20 goals all together in the arena, it does not have to be done in one go, but its probaly easiest if you do them all in one go.
If you have know idea what the arena is, its the place you play when the game first loads up and before you start to play a match. Once you score 5, "Gimme five" will unlock, and then when you score 20, this achievement will pop up.
Optimus Chung - 10
Win a game with adidas Live Season enabled.
For this, you just have to win a match with the adidas live season enabled. To enable the live season, follow these steps:
Main Menu ===> Adidas Live Season
Adidas Live Season ===> League Selection
From here pick any league you want. It'll then ask you to enter your free trial code. You can find the code on the back of your manual. Enter it and you should be done.
Once you've done that, follow this:
Main Menu >>>> My Fifa 09 >>>> Settings >>>> Advanced.
Once that comes up, press RB 6 times and "Adidas Live Season" options should come up. Turn them all on and go back to the main menu.
Then just play a normal match on Kick Off and win. The achievement should pop up at the end.
The Peterson - 1
Play for 50 hours.
Self explanatory, just play Fifa 09 for 50 hours. When doing this you must play and complete matches. Matches played against the CPU and matches played on XBL both count towards this achievement.
To check how long you have played, follow these steps:
Main Menu ===> My Fifa 09
My Fifa 09 ===> Fifa 09 Profiles
Fifa 09 Profiles ===> My Stats
From there go to "My Matches" and your minutes played offline will be in the Bottom Right Hand Corner, press X to see your Online minutes played.
For the Record, 50 Hours = 3000 Minutes
The Parolin Manouvre - 10
Win a game whilst not signed in to Xbox LIVE.
Ok, this achievement is simple, just win any match whilst not signed in to xbox live. To disconnect from xbox live, do one of the following:
1. Turn you wirless router off.
2. Take the ethernet cable out of the back of you xbox.
3. Take the wireless adapter out of the back of your xbox.
Once you've done that, all you have to do is play a match against the CPU and win.
The Poon Sang - 20
Win with 11 created players over xbox live.
To start off with, go to Manage teams from the main menu, then go into the creation zone and create a player.
Create 11 players, you'll want 1 Goalkeeper, 4 defenders, 4 midfielders and 2 Forwards. Put them onto any team you want. Then go back to the main menu, back to manage teams, and go to team management. Find the team you put the players on and edit the squad so that they are all the starting 11.
For the next bit I seriously suggest a boosting partner, because its going to be hard winning genuinely with 11 created players against someone who will more than likely use one of the best teams on the game. Set up a game with your partner over xbox live, and have him let you win. Achievement will pop up at the end.
The Venhola Ice - 20
Win a FIFA 09 Clubs match with your club
Quite straight forward, just win an online club game with your club. You can either create a club or join a club, there are many clubs in the Fifa 09 forum which you can join. Get you and your team to go to the dressing room, and start a game. It doesn't matter how many players are there as long as your club wins. Acheivement will pop up at the end of the club game.
Sparky Clean - 10
Keep a clean sheet.
A clean sheet is given when you team does not concede a goal in the whole of a single match. This can be done in any game mode, boosted online, or done with 2 pads, and also, you dont not need to win, you can draw 0-0 and still get it. Achievement will pop up at the end of the match.

The Gipson Curse - 10
Go into an online match after choosing your own arena player.
This achievement is pretty simple, although some people have reported it to possibly be glitched. But anyway, to do this, follow these steps:
Main Menu ===> My Fifa 09 ===> Arena Player Selection
Choose any player apart from Ronaldinho, and go back to the Main Menu. Go to Xbox Live and choose to play a quick ranked match, choose the team of the arena player you chose (For eg. If you chose Kaka, you'd pick AC Milan as your team) and wait patiently.
The achievement should pop up when you are playing in the arena before the match, but it may also come up as you start the match.
Judas - 10
Beat your favourite team with their rival.
If you cant remember who you chose as your favourite team, go to My Fifa 09 ==> Fifa 09 Profiles ===> Profile Manager.
If you look at the bottom of the screen from here, it should tell you your favourite team and your favourite teams rival.
From here, go back to the main menu and start a normal kick off match, for your team, choose your favourite teams rival, and for the opposition, choose your favourite team. Just win the match and the achievement will pop up at the end.
Fifa fair play - 40
Play 5 consecutive matches without getting any cards (bookings must be enabled in the settings).
Ok, this is quite simple. You have to play 5 matches in a row without getting yellow or red carded. You get carded for commiting bad fouls, so I suggest that you dont use to tackle, but use instead, that wat you're less likely to get booked. Online games do not count towards the achievement. Once you've finished the 5th match, the achievement should pop up.
Pictures speak a thousand words - 10
Upload 5 screenshots to EA Sports™ football world.
This is simple, when you start any match (apart from xbox live games), just play for a few seconds, then pause the game by pressing . Go to "Instant Replay", and press in to take a screenshot. Once it has uploaded, keep uploading the same screenshot until you've done it 5 times, once the 5th one uploads, the achievement should unlock. This can also be done in the arena.
Duo-Hedgeidecimal - 50
Enter a match with 20 people in a Fifa 09 Clubs Match.
For this one, you must first go to your clubs dressing room. Then you must wait until 10 people enter the dressing room, once they have, press to start a club game. IF THE OTHER TEAM DOES NOT HAVE 10 PLAYERS THEN LEAVE IMMEDIATELY. If the other team doesn't have 10 players, just have your team leave and keep joining matches until the other team has 10 players, when picking positions, make sure everyone chooses a postion, and that nobody CHOOSES "ANY". If you do this you will not get the achievement. It will pop up just before the match starts if everything is ok.
Jonzo's Lounge - 60
Score 2500 points and win 5 badges in a single Lounge Mode match.
To start a lounge match, follow these steps, Main Menu ===> Game Modes ===> Lounge Mode.
This achievement can be done with 2 controllers, or you can do it against the computer, which Tbh I found easier. For your team select a 5 star team, eg. Man United, and for the opposition, choose a 1/2 star team, eg. Bury.
Now, on to badges, you can get them, for various things:
Score a freekick
Score a Header
Score from a corner
Score a Hattrick
Dont concede a goal
Score more than 10 goals
Dont give any fouls away.
If you do most of these then you should unlock the achievement at the end of the match.
The Kwong - 10
Score a headed goal with the shortest created player.
This achievement can be boosted online or by using 2 pads. I would suggest boosting online.
What you need to do is to go to the creation zone, and create 2 Central Midfielders (CM) and 2 Strikers (ST) AND PUT THEIR HEIGHT AS 4"11. You do not need to do anything else. You can these 4 players on any team you want, it does not matter.
Now, go Team Management from the Manage Teams section of the Main Menu, and put the 4 players you just created as starters. Once you have that done, you are ready to play.
Start whatever match type you are using to do this, and once the game starts just score a header with one of the 4"11 players. I would suggest boosting this, because then you can just have your partner bring his keeper out (), leaving you to head the ball into an empty net.
Well, thats it, its finally done, Enjoy!

I'm with you on this one because I scored at 88:53 and was gutted to be such a small amount away as it was only 5 min halves so a couple of seconds at the most
So unless this achievement is a little glitchy, its from 89:00 to 89:59

A quick way to get the Huge Investment and Huge Return achievements is to start a manager mode game with Man utd and make sure the currency is set to $.
Put Ronaldo up for sale, sim the first game someone will offer more than $50million after the first game accept this then go to the transfer market and do a search for Casillas (Real Madrid keeper) put in a bid for this player by maxing out everything (i bid $51 Million which was the max i could go), sim the next game and hopefully you shoul have signed him.

on another note - the man down achievement won't unlock 4 me???
A Man Down20 Win a game when down one man
I'm assuming your not done with the guide as theirs not even half the achievements up.
I know it says not to post but i wanted to ask/point out some things.
Write the Guide as if the person reading it has never played the game and is Soccer (Futbol) dumb. Since i get EA Sport titles for $20 each i'm probably going to get this game because i have not played a soccer game since Fifa 06 and the achievements look fairly easy and fun. So i obviously don' know what i'm doing .
Bend it like a Pro - 15
Score from a free kick in a match.
This achievement can be quite challenging, even with a boosting partner or 2nd controller. The way I managed to get it was too aim for the top corner nearest to the keeper (so you dont have to worry about putting the ball over the wall). When shooting, hold LB, and fill your power bar about 1/4 of the way up. If it doesn't work first time, just keep trying, it'll come eventually. You can also unlock the "In Off" achievement by doing this, just as I did.
How do we get a free kick? It just says how to score but not how to get a free kick or anything leading up to the goal itself.
Hero - 10
Save a penalty.
The easiest way to get this would be to be boost or use a seond controller, and give away a penalty, but make sure that you tell each other what you're doing.
Or, if you dont have a boosting partner, you can play a cup match (Or normal k.o, I did it in a cup game on manager mode) and purposely let the match go to penalties, then work your way from there, you'll probaly save at least one.
Purposely let the match go to penalties? Is that the shootout after the overtime? Can we just set the halves to 1 min.?
Last gasp goal - 19
Score in the 89th minute.
Pretty self-explanatory, just score a goal in the 89th minute of a match, if your not sure, the 89th minute is from 88:00 - 88:59 on the game clock.
Or, find yourself a boosting partner, and just before the 89th minute, have him/her bring their keeper out, leaving you to just put the ball into an empty net.
You need to score from 89.00 - 90.00 can be done with 2pads
A Man Down - 20
Win a game when one man down.
Ok for this achievement, the first thing you have to do is get one of your players sent off. You get a player sent off by commiting fouls, the easiest way to do this is to just slide the opposition player, by doing this you will usually get either a yellow card or a straight red card. If you get a yellow card, just do the same thing again, meaning you will get another yellow card, 2 yellow cards = red card = sent off.
Once you have your player sent off, you must then win the current match. I found the easiest way to do this achievement was to score a few goals and take the lead, and then get a man sent off. This way you dont have to worry about scoring with 10 players instead of 11.
Can be done with 2 pads
Giant Killer - 15
Beat a five star team with a half start team.
Start a new match and for your team choose a team with a rating of 1/2 star. I myself used Bury. For the opposition pick a 5 star team, I picked Chelsea. Just play through the match and win. The achievement will pop up at the end.
Can be done with 2 pads
For these achievements, if using two controllers, can the person who doesn't want the achievement just score a goal on themselves? It would surely make things easier.
Other than a few little bumps the guide looks great, keep up the good work and i look forward to seeing it again once it's completely finished.

quick way to do the 1 star winners is just start the swedish cup and win with Trelleborg
On top of what i said in my previous post, can you pull the opposing goalie for every achievement, it would surely make things easier.

Alfes2000, who you may know from his blog site providing lots of great looks at new Japanese releases, has tweeted a few in-hand images of the Japanese Transformers Generations release of Fall of Cybertron Optimus Prime. Evident from these images is that all the flat red on the US Fall of Cybertron Optimus Prime is shiny here, and the blue is a bit darker to match – does the higher-quality paint job make the difference for you?

The city of San Francisco is being rescued from paying the cost of staging the "Batkid" fantasy that captured the imagination of North Americans.
Philanthropists John and Marcia Goldman are picking up the city's $105,000 tab for allowing Miles Scott, a 5-year-old Northern California boy with leukemia, to fight villains and rescue a damsel in distress as a caped crusader in November.
City officials say most of the money went toward renting a sound system, video screens and other equipment to accommodate the large crowds that turned out to see "Batkid"
The elaborate fantasy was arranged by the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

I am trying out wp-super-cache instead of W3 Total Cache but I am not sure about the CDN part. On W3TC I had it running with speedymirror so all images always were pulled from the CDN automatically.
But do I need to do some sync outside wp-super-cache for the wp-content, wp-includes content to be put on the CDN? Is this not done on the fly?

State employees injured by carnival trailer wreck
WESTMINSTER An East Calais woman was one of two state employees injured Tuesday afternoon when a box truck hauling a carnival cotton candy trailer jackknifed on Interstate 91 and hit their car.
Vermont State Police said Patricia Ethier, 44, was driving the state Department of Labor car and Aaron Lewis, 38, no address given, was her passenger. Both were taken to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital. According to a state employee directory, both work for the Department of Labor in Montpelier.
A spokeswoman at the hospital said she could not confirm whether either was a patient there.
Police said both were wearing their seat belts.
Police said a box truck driven by Karl Blanton, of Lenoir, N.C., was southbound on Interstate 91 at about 1:45 p.m. when it left the road.
Both northbound and southbound traffic was reduced to one lane until the two state employees were freed from their vehicle, a Ford Fusion. Rescue workers cut the top off the vehicle, police said.MORE IN This Just InBERLIN Free trade talks between the European Union and the United States have failed, Germanys...

Cesc Fabregas - World Class?
Cesc is a very good player....but not yet world class i would suggest.
In my opinion there has only probably only been three world class central midfield players in the premiership in the last 10 years or so.They are Vieira,Keane and Gerrard...Cesc can join them if he keeps on improving.He has all the weapons in his armoury to become one of the all time great players.I for one will enjoy watching to see if he makes it.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
In my criteria for assessing attacking central midfielders, Cesc is the best in the premiership and would compete with any in the world. If you take the goals out of gerrard and lampard then they don't even come close in terms of attacking midfied play. If Gerrard is world class then Cesc has to be. Remember he has been best player in junior world tournaments in the last few years with only Messi to compete with him
Just watch him move and pass and you'd know what I mean
- 1 Reply to fred j
Totally agree with freddoc, I'd prefer Cesc to Lampard any day, as for Gerrard, well I like him, he's a great player. But, he is a different player from Cesc, full of power, whilst Cesc has the craft.

Oh god. Just typing this recipe's name made me want to make it for dinner tonight. And so it shall be done.
Just an odd, aerial view from that delicious dinner last week…
There is something so adult about salads with fruit, right? Is it just me? I mean, young Chrissy definitely preferred her a ranch salad with shredded carrots and a crouton or 3000. And up until a year ago, I still thought that that was my preference. But no. Especially not after this salad.
And can I just say how awesome I feel when I make my own salad dressing? Pretty awesome. It's SO easy ANNNND it has the added benefit of being able to annoy people by saying, "I MADE IT MYSELF! THE DRESSING! I MADE IT MYSELF!" Which is always fun.
Omnomnomnomnom. And this is coming from someone who thinks salads are for rabbits and other demons. Apple, Pecan, and Blue Cheese Salad riiiiiiiiight here [click]. (I used cranberries instead of dried cherries!)
Combine the salad greens, apples, pecans, cherries, and cheese in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk the oil, Dijon, maple syrup, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste. You can also add all these ingredients to a jar, put the lid on the jar and shake it up.
Pour as much of the salad dressing on the salad as you like and toss to combine.

Otto Thott
Otto Thott (October 13, 1703 – September 10, 1785), was a Danish Count, minister of state, bibliophile, and collector of books. He was one of the greatest private book collectors of his time in Denmark.
Early life and education[edit]
He was the son of Tage Thott (d. 1707) and Petra Sophie Reedtz. His father died before Otto had been reached the age of 4 years, and his mother moved, with him to Sorø, where he went to school. He also lost his mother before he was 17 years of age. Thott was left alone almost without any funds. He was supported by and he was able to continue his development at the way that the time was considered to be necessary for a young nobleman, namely by a trip abroad.[1]
He lived for a time in Halle, where he studied the Jurisprudence, and also the history and philosophy. These studies he continued in the University of Jena and later during his stay in Holland, England and France. Besides, made the acquaintance with several scientists in the various towns where he stayed, and though his funds was probably limited, he earned himself valuable manuscripts and books.
After his return from the trip he obtained, in 1723, a secretary position in the Danish Chancellery, although he was only 20 years old. A significant step forward in his career was made on August 30, 1746, when he came to lead the Finance College as the 1st deputy, a post he held until the December 6, 1759. The year previously he had reached the highest statesmanship dignity on July 21, 1758, to join the "gehejmekonseillet".[2]
Shortly after Frederick V's accession to the throne he had received the Order of the Dannebrog. On September 4, 1747, he received the title of Privy, and in 1752 the Dowager Queen Sophie Magdalene awarded him the order of "de l'union Parfait', and he occupied repeatedly for a long time a position as one of the Copenhagen Bank directors. In 1755-1758 he modernized Gavnø, turning it into a rococo palace.
Book collector[edit]
Otto Thott acquired most of the library of Edward Harley (1689–1741) after the latter's death.[3] The library of Otto Thott contained 138,000 volumes at his death in 1785.[4][5] It was one of the largest private libraries of the 18th century in Danmark.[6]
The Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen received 4,154 manuscripts and 6,159 early printed books, of which 1,500 were incunabula.[7] Further, the library bought about 60,000 volumes at the auction sale.[4][8]

Point your browser to http://www.asc.edu/supercomputing/software.html
Contact the HPC technical support staff at email@example.com
8. What math and utility routines are available on the DMC and SGI Ultraviolet?
Public routines in FORTRAN and C can be found at http://www.netlib.org The slatec library is already installed on the DMC.
The Intel Math Kernel Library is on the Ultraviolet.
The SGI Ultraviolet SCSL library is on the Ultraviolet.
The AMD core Math Library is on the DMC.
The ATLAS library is on the DMC.
9. How can I get help with my code?
Contact the analyst at email@example.com.
10. I compiled and ran my first big job on the computer, but after a few minutes it died with the message "Cpu limit exceeded". How do I run big jobs?
Interactive jobs are limited to 600 seconds.
Information on how to run your job via the SLURM job queueing system is in the user manual.
Contact the analyst for help at firstname.lastname@example.com.
11. What is the batch system and how is it used?
Unlike PC's, these platforms are not designed for interactive work. Therefore, jobs that need running are submitted to a batch system for processing. The system handles multiple requests and schedules each job based on which batch queue was requested. To see a list of available queues, type qlimits at the prompt.
To utilize the batch system, contact the analyst for help at firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you are using an application package, run scripts are available which automatically submit your job for you. These are usually located in /apps/scripts. All you do is run the script and answer the questions.
If you are compiling your own code, the analyst had scripts designed to compile, execute and scp your code anywhere you desire.
If you feel comfortable using Unix scripts, prepare a simple script that runs your executable and submit it to the appropriate queue with the run_script command as follows
run_script <scriptname>
12. How do I use X-window based software on the DMC and SGI Ultraviolet?
The following commands can be used to setup a X-window connection to the DMC from a machine running UNIX X-windows. The commands might be slightly different from a Macintosh or PC with an X-window emulator.
ssh -Y firstname.lastname@example.com (where user_id is your login)
Type the command.
See the HPC User Manual for additional information on how to install and use X-Windows
13. How do I request new software for the DMC?
Contact the analyst for assistance in preparing a request.
In general, the more expensive the software, the greater your need will be to demonstrate interest in the software at multiple AREN client institutions.
14. Is the supercomputer just for hard science and engineering?
No! Although chemists, engineers, and physicists currently dominate the use of the supercomputers, we also have biologists, musicians, environmental scientists, and other non-traditional users. With the growing interest in data-mining applications in a number of fields, we expect the diversity of our user community to increase.
Please contact the HPC staff at (256) 971-7448 or email@example.com if you are contemplating non-traditional use of the DMC.
15.How do I get an account on the supercomputer?
There is an annual request for supercomputer accounts, via a web form. This is free for academic use in the state of Alabama, with commercial rates available. To get an account on the Ultraviolet, please go to:http://www.asc.edu/cgi-bin/account_request.cgi
After filling out the form, click "Submit Grant Application". This will generate a second page summarizing the information you entered. This second page must be printed, signed and faxed to (256) 971-7491. You will receive an email with your account password and information on accessing the SGI Ultraviolet within a couple days.
16.What do I do if my disk quota is exceeded?
All user accounts on the SGI Ultraviolet and DMC have disk quotas, which determine how much information can be stored in the home directory and it's subdirectories. By default, this quota is 20 GB. Users can see their disk quota by typing "quota" or "usage".
Please note that it has always been the policy that disk space on the supercomputers is for work in progress, not permanent backup or archival. Completed work should be transfered to a campus facility for permanent storage.
While a calculation is in progress, the /scratch file system provides a large amount of temporary disk space. The amount of space that can be used on /scratch is limited by the choice of job queue. To see the queue disk limits, type "qlimits". Any files created on /scratch must be removed within one week after the calculation completes. Files left on /scratch more than a week are automatically deleted.
If the nature of your work is such that you must have a larger home directory quota, you can request a larger quota. Users can request up to 1 TB quotas at no charge. Send an email with your request and a brief justification to David Young at firstname.lastname@example.com
For quotas over 1 TB, please contact us to obtain a quote to purchase additional resources. To obtain a formal written quote for disk space, contact Mrs. Donna Daniel, Director of Client Services, at email@example.com or 334-242-0175.
17.How do I find out how much memory and CPU time my job used?
After the job has completed, type the command "jobinfo -j JOBNUMBER".
