its obvious were not getting luck so, not sure what your point is.
I believe any man's finest hour - his greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle...Victorious
Still waiting. Under the worst circumstance, instead of showing the supports are team needed, they decided it was in their best interest if the Dolphins became the laughing stock of the league. SMDH. And Luck may not even be this best QB in this draft. LMAO. Dolfans embarrassed themselves.
I'm still here. It's not that I legitimately wanted the team to tank the season, it was more that I knew for a fact that this team was not gonna win many games, if any, with Henne under center.
This team is far from being terrible. The combination of poor coaching, lack of in-game adjustments, poor managing, and the worst starting quarterback in the league, piss-poor attitudes and many other things combine to take a group of talented players and give the illusion of a very very bad team.
With a new group of position coaches, a new head coach, and a new quarterback will create a new mentality for this organization. IMO, this team is a playoff team next year and a perennial playoff team for years to come if everything mentioned before hand falls into place.
"Fundamentals, technique, execution -- primary. Scheme -- secondary."
"We will incorporate an aggressive, up-tempo, attacking style in all three phases of the game."
"Our team will play with discipline, poise, and maximum effort."
"I want us to be the best tackling team in the NFL, the best team in pursuit, I want to take the ball away from other teams, I want to rattle the opposing quarterback every opportunity we get."
-- Joe Philbin 01/12
Where are all the "Orton gets us into the POs" Myopians who thought that a QB with padded stats when it meant nothing, a career 61QBR on 3rd downs and losing 10 out of his last 13 games on basically more of a team with better receivers than the one Tebow's won 3 out of the last 4.
Thanks Ross for stepping in to restore some sanity.
For me, the plan is for Luck to "Suck" the rest of the college season causing teams to look at other players. He has not been playing well the last couple of games. Maybe all the #1 talk has messed up his focus. Then we grab him with our dreamy early teens pick.
Did anyone watch Baylor Saturday night? I am starting to be a believer in Robert Griffin III. If we miss out on Luck and Barkley, he should be the #3 prospect over Landry IMHO.
So who doesn't want Luck? Man people have short memories and are easily swayed. Let's see what happens the rest of the way. Look what happened with Fitz and the Bills.
I just hope we get any of these top QB's at this point. I don't know how far we're going to play out of Luck and Barkley
I'm on the "whoever is the best QB available when we pick" bandwagon. If they have to, this team needs to trade up for their QB.

If you are in the mood for comedy, check out "Miss Congeniality" at 6 p.m. today on ABC Family, in which a nerdy FBI agent (played by Sandra Bullock) goes undercover at a beauty pageant to find a saboteur.
Who can forget Bullock's character Gracie Hart falling down after attempting to walk in high heels? Her lust for a doughnut? Her self-defense demonstration? I could go on, but watch it for yourself.
What other Bullock movies do you remember?
1. Bullock co-starred opposite Sylvester Stallone in this 1993 futuristic film.
2. She played Annie in this 1994 film about a madman trying to blow up a bus if it travels under 50 mph.
3. Bullock starred as a newspaper columnist who enters an alcohol rehab center in which 2000 film?
4. Bullock co-starred as a rich woman who stereotyped minorities as thieves in this 2004 Oscar-winning film.
5. Bullock won an Oscar for her portrayal of this real-life woman who adopted a homeless teen who played football.
6. Name the film in which Bullock's character was caught in a cyberspace conspiracy which claimed the lives of the only people who knew her.
7. Bullock starred as a nurse who cared for an injured Ernest Hemingway in which 1996 film?
Answers: 1. "Demolition Man." 2. "Speed." 3. "28 Days." 4. "Crash." 5. Leigh Anne Tuohy, and the film was called "The Blind Side." 6. "The Net." 7. "In Love and War."

This event marks MPI Europe's official launch in Brussels. To inaugurate the new office, MPI Europe will host a panel discussion to explore what is driving societal discontent in Europe, the role immigration plays in this, and why there is a growing perception that immigrant integration efforts are failing.
Recent Activity
While a number of major migrant-sending countries like Morocco and Turkey have started to take an active role in the integration of their migrants abroad, the role of subnational authorities has been overshadowed by diaspora engagement initiatives at the national level. This report investigates how the activities of origin countries' regional and local institutions may improve the lives of emigrants to Member States of the European Union.
While there is growing consensus on the value of immigrant integration support prior to departure, such initiatives generally have not fully realized their potential. This policy brief reviews promising examples of predeparture measures for labor market integration in Europe that are jointly designed and/or run by origin- and destination-country actors, illustrating their potential to help effectively address some of the most stubborn obstacles to successful integration.
Youth of a migrant background are over-represented among those who leave school early in the European Union. This policy brief discusses empirical findings, theoretical insights, and promising measures that may inform further policy action to address the disproportionately high level of early school leaving among students with a migrant background, which results from socioeconomic and other factors.
A number of actors outside the formal educational context, including parents, peers, and other community members, can play an important role in the social and educational development of migrant children. This policy brief reviews current measures to promote the integration of migrant students around Europe, focusing on those initiatives that include the family and community as part of the educational process.
Employment-oriented mentoring is increasingly recognized in Europe as a tool for advancing the labor market integration of disadvantaged individuals, including immigrants. This report highlights a number of relevant one-on-one mentoring practices in Europe and North America, focusing on the role of different initiators and stakeholders, forms of collaboration, methods, and target groups.
A day-long conference in Brussels, co-sponsored by the International Labour Office and the European Commision's Directorate-General for Employment, Social Affairs, and Inclusion, where panelists discuss the dynamics by which migrants get stuck in low-skilled work, and the role of training and employment services in helping them progress in their occupations. The conference concludes a project and series of reports prepared on the Labor Market Integration of New Arrivals in Europe.
This report is the final one in an MPI-International Labour Office series that examines the employment prospects of migrants in the EU (focusing on the case-study countries of the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom), as well as the effectiveness of integration and workforce development policies in helping these workers overcome barriers and ascend out of low-skilled work.
It is crucial for children of migrant background in Europe to become proficient in their host country's main language of instruction. This MPI Europe policy brief provides key points and good practice examples on what comprehensive language support in Europe might look like.

According to the American Heart Association, more than two million Americans suffer from atrial fibrillation (a-fib). Half of those who have a-fib don't even know it. Why does that matter? Because a-fib is one of the leading causes of stroke.
"When it comes to preventing a-fib-related stroke, it's important to talk to your doctor, understand your risk and monitor your pulse regularly," advises Joel E. Smilow Heart Institute Chief of Cardiology Stuart Zarich, MD.

text:
I chose to open my audiography with silence. Silence represents the calm before the storm. When we are sleeping we do not process the sense data of the real world in a direct way. In reality the only silence is found in sleep.
The silence is followed by an alarm. This noise wakes me every day. More than that, it marks a sharp snap into the new day. The alarm is both cyclic and punctual, it divides the realms of slumber and awareness of dreams and reality. In addition to these sentiments the also evokes a sense of resentment. Resentment for the regular and scheduled life we construct, wash rinse and repeat. As the alarm interrupts my natural Circadian rhythm, I am reminded of how little freedom I have existing within a system of artificial segmentation of time and an unnecessary sense of urgency.
Following this alarm is the song "Hoodmorning" by the Game. The opening half minuet of the song reminds me of how fortunate I am to be waking up in the place I am. It is also an upbeat song that adds some flavor to an otherwise monotonous morning routine. When selecting what song to start my day with, I had some difficulty. After narrowing it down to two selections, Up Up and Away by KiD CuDi and the previously mentioned track, I decided to go with the Game, mostly because of the general message of the song and the semantic mood it creates. KiD CuDi is too airy and happy to begin the grind of a day of classes to. In reality, the specific song is unimportant to the auditory significance of this sound byte. Rather, it is the buildup of the introduction and abrupt beginning that force me out of bed and into the shower.
The noises of my morning hygienic activities are white noise. The sound of water running in the shower as regular to us as the wind, can induce a meditative mood, especially fresh out of the dream state. It is this sound coupled with a feeling of refreshment that pulls me fully into my day. As I hastily brush my teeth, listening causally as Michelle Chion would say, I stop to realize how odd it is to hear a noise from inside one's own head. The sounds of cleanliness are encouraging and healthy.
As my day continues I head to class, compressed air hisses as a bus pulls up to the front of University Heights North. It represents the beginning of work, of study. As my ear perceives the hissing air, a mental sigh accompanies it, and I am resolved as I board the bus, mentally preparing to tune out the noise on board. The clamor of humanity itches my inner ear as I ride to class, irritating and obnoxious, even as I try to block it out. Snippets of the irrelevant banter we employ to fill the silence of our world. Conversations with no substance, used to pass the time, to fill the space with not a single individual investing any real stock or passion into anything they say. Talking for the sake of talking. I am relieved as I disembark.
This transitions to the relative silence of the classroom broken every so often by the question of a student or the opening of a door. Pencil scratches paper as the professors voice slowly fades from my immediate auditory sphere of attention and becomes time. The scratch of pencil on paper is significant. It is paradoxical. The audio should indicate a hunger for knowledge, a drive to pay attention and take down the notes heard from the professor manifested in frantic scratching. In this case it is the sound of a pencil doodling away, the sound of a brain producing in the wrong discipline, an artistic output that indicates a need for stimulation. The boredom encapsulated in this sound byte is something I live with daily, another reminder of the monotone of daily life. It seems that the monotone of life. It seems that as our lives become more monotonous in nature, audio of our daily lives blends together, resonating with this sentiment. We are quick to disregard those things that do not interest us, especially in audition.
Class ends and I return to my dorm. The slam of the door punctuates the day, semantically symbolizing an end to work contrasting a physically constrained dorm with the mental felling of freedom that creeps into my consciousness.
This freedom is manifested in music. As I turn on the stereo and Macklemore's "Jimmy Iovine" blasts on and the bass rattles the shades, I start to refocus my auditory sense on the music finally something with passion coupled with intelligence. Message and content are integral in my enjoyment of music, the semantic meaning of lyrics stimulates my brain in ways that the noises of everyday life never can. Reduced listening takes this to a whole different level, opening a world of infinite possibility.
Lastly, I included the light switching off to punctuate my day. A simple click the marks a spiral into the world of dreams and nightmares, a calming and relieving noise even with the knowledge that tomorrow won't be that much different.

Arizona Cardinals
49ers touchdowns against Cardinals came at a price
Maybe the Arizona Cardinals got the last laugh after all?
Not really.
Anyway, the San Francisco 49ers beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-13 in the regular season finale last Sunday. A close game in the first half, the 49ers took it to the Cardinals over the game's final 30 minutes.
In all, receiver Michael Crabtree scored a pair of touchdowns while running back Frank Gore tallied one. As part of their respective celebrations, each player threw the football into the stands.
As it turns out, footballs are expensive.
According to CSNBayArea.com, the players were fined for tossing the footballs away.
The well-meaning gesture came at a price, though. Both players were fined $10,500 by the NFL, according to a league spokesman.
The league considers it fan safety issue to have players throw football into the stands, as opposed to handing the ball or tossing it to a fan, which is allowed. The NFL does not want fans fighting over a football.
Fortunately for both Crabree and Gore, their contracts are paying them hefty sums. However, that probably won't do much to dull the pain.
If only they would have scored fewer touchdowns that day…

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Disc golf is new to the area where I live. Our first local course was opened in 2010.
Last year I got involved in starting a local club with a bag tag. This year we hosted 4 tournaments and had over 60 players compete in our bag-tag challenge. However, there is one player who I am pretty sure is cheating!
Early in the summer I played a bag-tag round where I was in a foursome with him, where he kept score. I was having a good round and was sure I was winning the card. When we got to the last hole he announced the score and was four strokes ahead of me. I thought it was strange seeing as how he really hadn't had a good tee shot and had spent a lot of time in the ruff. Since then I have been on the same card with him several times (none of which did he keep score) and have had questions about the scores he claims for at least 2 holes a round.
It's not just me I've spoken to others who have the same opinion after playing with him. Plus, during a tournament in which I was the TD, 3 players who were the same card as him in different rounds stated that they really doubted he had shot as well as the scores he turned in. However no one was willing to swear to the fact. He ended up winning his division.
My question is how much proof is needed and how can the proof be obtained to prove that he is cheating? What action should we take to stop his cheating?

hell any smartphone for that matter
It's still overkill.
PDGA Marshal walks with the group...
Have Anyone , Make sure this Guy Attends Every Players Meeting and Have the TD Point out , No Cheating and have this guy walk up to the Front where the TD is speaking ! If Caught , have him DQ'd !!!
Fortunately, I've never ran across someone like that, but I would say that you just have to watch him like a hawk, and politely correct him when he gives an incorrect score.If everyone in the group agrees about the scores he cannot complain about it.
Honestly i'd tell him quit being a little B!tch and lying and whining when caught but who am I to judge... lol
we used to have a guy like this and eventually the word got around that everyone knew he was a cheater and he just stop playing becuase everyone knew he cheated, kind of hard to look someone in the eye when you got a rep. like that.
Take four pebbles of similar size and four post it notes with you to the next tourney. One at a time, remove a valve stem and put one of the pebbles inside. Screw the cap back on until you hear a light hissing sound. Write "Cheaters never prosper" on the post it notes then put them on each tire. Do all four tires.
Have the TD , Point him out at the Players Meeting !!! So Everyone will know , not to trust him !!! That usually stops any problem right away !!
I had the same thing happen to me this weekend at a tournament, we all said the scores aloud at the end of each hole, he was keeping score the entire time which isn't a big deal usually, but at the end of the first round he magically tied with me... I seen holes that I know he 5-ed or 6-ed and he wrote down one stroke better than what he got on those holes, I talked to the TD and all he could do is give him a warning... My recommendation is to keep score on a separate card from now on... lesson learned here... I kicked his a$$ in the second round so no worries...

If you suddenly lost all of your sources of income, including your job, would you consider yourself poor?
Lets say a huge financial collapse occurs, and you lose all your sources of income, almost overnight, no-one is hiring, people everywhere in your country are in the same situation, the currency of your country is so inflated its virtually worthless.
Would you consider yourself poor?
Or do you have skills which would enable you to survive, perhaps even thrive?
Feb 23 2013: If the situation is the same for everyone, we just lower our class but not change positions.
It really depends on the person, some people will do better in chaos or try harder and achieve more than before as the same time, some people lose hope and fail on difficult situations and just gives up.

Feb 23 2013: If everyone is poor, then no one is poor.

I would survive.
Feb 23 2013: Nicely put!Feb 25 2013: I do not agree. You are saying that if everybody is hungry then on one is hungry. That is obviously wrong. If everybody is poor then no one is rich!!!... Poor is someone how has trouble to solve his/her basic needs so making everybody poor doesn't solve the basic needs of everyone , as you state.

Feb 25 2013: Broke is a temporary condition, I agree. Poor is a state of mind, I disagree, because poor is a state of you stomach (empty)!Feb 26 2013: I will consider myself broke, not poor. Poor is one does not only have resources, physical and intellectual, but has no hope for redemption.Feb 24 2013: Way ahead of the game here. We garden, can, have water wells, animals, wind generators, etc ...
That neither makes me rich or poor ... just capable of surviving.
Feb 24 2013: What animals do you have, if I might ask? And wind generators!
Feb 24 2013: Bergey 10kW. Just a few animals ... pig or two ... chickens .... cow or two .. all dependent upon needs or projected needs and freezer space. Dog and cats are pets ... however one mean cat might be considered .. LOL
Thanks for the reply. Bob.
Feb 24 2013: I have always lived in cities and would not myself know how to care for or milk a cow. How wonderful that you have these skills.
There are people in the city who keep chickens.Feb 24 2013: I am certainly not a natrual. All of this is real work. But the wages and benefits are worth the effort.
Just for the fun of try a herb garden that you can do in the house. I find it very calming.
There are dude ranches and work farms that you could "summer" at to better appreciate the effort and hone some skills you may not know you have.
Thanks for your reply.Feb 26 2013: Dont eat the catFeb 25 2013: It depends on your definition of "poor"... to me poor is someone how doesn't have enough economic resources to fully cover his/her basic needs. So if I wouldn't be able to have access food and/or shelter I would consider myself poor... on the other hand, no matter what, as long as I can provide myself with enough food and shelter, I won't consider myself poor.

Family and friends would cooperate, and we would survive.

Feb 24 2013: Poor is someone who gives up .You have the skills to what in the old terms is barter You provide a serivce to people to whom are in your position. And them make an agreement in payment, i.e.food. As d cameron in U.K and his cabinet say "WE are all in this together" HA! HA! HA! unless you have millions in the "BANK"

I wrote "We are never poor as long as we have each other"..because according to the scenario presented by our friend Lionel in this question; "people everywhere in your country are in the same situation " ( jobless, penniless, currency is worthless, etc. etc......)......so I think he is trying to present what in his assumption maybe the most dire of dire situations.
This means that we all have no money, and my answer to that is that as long as we have each other we have enough. Because when we have the ability to appreciate that we have each other, then we have the only thing that matters: our spirits.
I think the only danger is our spiritual poverty, whether it is individual or collective.
. .
Mar 8 2013: Thank you Don. I appreciate your big "No" to Lionel's question. And your kind words to me♥

I think the only way that one is poor when living in a car...is if one makes a permanent home of it for themselves.
In other words, our circumstances change, ( and change is guaranteed by life) so it is what our spirit makes of it that determines our experience.
Which "temporary" do we make "a permanent"?? This choice is ours.
Fritzie -
Feb 23 2013: I would only have skills to trade. I don't know how to farm and don't have land that is good for growing things that would make an adequate person-diet. I don't think I would consider myself poor, though. It depends how you define it.
- +1
Feb 24 2013: You as all have plenty of un -used attributes its finding th right oneMar 8 2013: Everyone may advise different solutions but reality in such situation is more painful. Values we have earned in our life will help us to lead a rich life and a notable death.
There are more poor people than rich people(in terms of income) so bad plan on income = a very bad life.Mar 5 2013: to me, POOR is a lack of something in our own mind. if there is someone who has felt a lack of something; strong unrest or loneliness, I think we could consider him as a poor.
i just want to say that I think the meaning of the word "POOR" is defined by each person or their environments.
so I don't think this question is proposition. Or we have no clear answers about this.
this question is difficult however it' s also valuable.Mar 1 2013: Poor is a very relative term of refernce. Nonetheless the subject does leave you questioning yourself as to whether you do have the skills to survive! I suppose after the intial realiziation of the new status quo one does enter the realms of introspection.
Poor is not exactly the thought that crosses a mind thats comming to grips with a situation of worthlessness. The quest for survial overpowers logic, which in quick time transforms thoughts into emprical emotions.
Poor is a perception that is quickly dealt with by every mind that is rich to change the narrative sooner than later.Mar 1 2013: For me
Poor + Poor = Surviving
Poor + Rich = VERY POORFeb 27 2013: Referencing the Great Depression?? Okay, I'll bite. I would consider myself freed. However, not all would feel the same, but my children are grown and have families of their own...so I will just consider myself and my husband. I believe we would feel a sense of freedom never thought of, due to the ability and experience to earn money. When I readTales of a Female Nomad by Rita Golden Gelman, I felt a sudden urge to have the freedom you speak of. Check it out...
Feb 27 2013: freed from vaccination, schools, healthcare, heating, leisure time, cars, proper clothing. if this "new world" seems desirable to you, i certainly don't envy your current life.Feb 26 2013: I'd probably be richer than most the other 7 billion humans and most of those who lived before, but considerably poorer than I was previously.
I guess its relative to what you compare it to.Feb 26 2013: what kind of skills allow you to survive without food?
Feb 26 2013: hunting, fishing, stealing, gardening, gathering, biological stasis perhaps?

The Blossoming of Maximo Oliveros
An effeminate 12-year-old who dutifully plays mother to his criminal father and older siblings experiences a crisis of conscience after befriending an honest Manila cop in the sophomore feature from director Auraeus Solito. A young innocent whose devotion to his family finds him taking the place of his own deceased mother, Maxi spends most of his days cooking and doing the household chores. In the evening hours, Maxi can often be found on the streets shopping and taking in a film at the local DVD stand with the many homeless children who seek a momentary escape from their bleak existence. When Maxi is rescued from a group of local thugs late one night by kindly rookie police officer Victor, his attraction to the kind-hearted and trustworthy Victor soon finds him torn between the criminal behavior of his family and his desire to follow a more honorable path in life.~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Quality Bedspread I had been searching for the perfect bedspread and found it here. The Bird of Paradise spread is high quality, heavy weight, and beautiful! I'm very pleased with my purchase and will continue to buy from the Vermont Country Store. Thank you for carrying good quality merchandise! October 22, 2013
Beautiful Pattern...but!!!!! I recently purchased this lovely bedspread and put it on my bed. The pattern is very pretty and unusual, which interested me. The fabric is a dense weave and this makes the bedspread rather on the 'stiff' side! I felt as though I was sleeping under a big piece of canvas! The material is not very soft, but I am hoping that when I wash it(in a commercial washer as it is King-size), it will soften-up! I am keeping it because of the look, but I do wish that the material would have been a lot more soft. October 18, 2013
Quality & Beauty This bedspread has good coloring and the feel of good quality. I would considering buying from your store again without hesitation. June 9, 2013
Beautiful, Quality Item This is a lovely bedspread! I purchased the mint color to match my bedroom and the color represented online was an exact match! The fabric has a good weight to it and it machine washed and dried beautifully! I just ordered another for fabric to make an upholstered headboard and window valances for my bedroom! June 2, 2013

Immersed in the speed of everyday troubles, their lives inevitably climax in a fatal collision between real and virtual identities, a final logging-off from innocence.

Home has been anything but sweet for Mark Webber in recent years, but he's ready for a reversal of fortunes in his 10th race at Albert Park
by Matthew Clayton
Mark Webber has, in his own words, "ticked a lot of boxes" in his last two seasons in Formula One. In his past 36 races, the 34-year-old has managed six wins and 18 podiums in all, but for all that success, there are two glaring holes in his CV that he's determined to fix this year.
There are five tracks on the 2011 calendar where the Australian has never stood on the podium. Two of them have been on that calendar in every one of Webber's nine F1 years.
One is Monza; the other, Albert Park.
Webber is well aware of what he calls a "hideous stat", and after a front-row start here last year produced a ninth-place finish, he's hopeful that he can improve on that home record on Sunday.
"After the last two years, I know there's not a huge amount of tracks that I haven't had a podium on now; here, Canada, Monza, and obviously some of the newer ones like Valencia and Korea," the Red Bull driver says.
"I actually don't mind the track here even though the results haven't come, and I've always been pretty quick around here."
Webber has qualified inside the top 10 in six of the last seven years at home, but race day success has been harder to come by.
This Sunday will be Webber's 10th race at Albert Park, with fifth on debut for Minardi in 2002 and the same result in his first race for Williams three years later being the high points.
He led the race for a lap in 2006 for Williams before being forced out with gearbox failure, got caught out in first-lap accidents in 2008 and 2009, and was wrong-footed by the changeable weather here last year despite setting the fastest lap of the race.
Webber says his memories of the 2002 debut, driving for compatriot Paul Stoddart, still burn brightest.
"Ten years at home goes pretty quickly, and it's hard to remember what happened in a lot of them," he says.
"The thing I remember most from '02 was that it was such a bizarre week and people like 'Stoddy', (Australian Grand Prix Corporation chairman) Ron Walker and (chief executive) John Harnden. Then to have everyone crash into each other at the start … and I still don't know how that car even got around the track, but it did."
Success was a long time coming for Webber – no driver in F1 history has waited longer for his maiden victory (130 starts) – but times have changed dramatically in the last two seasons. While he stops short of saying that a win at home would rate second only to a World Championship, it's clear that he's motivated by victory in Australia being within reach.
"For me to win my home event would be right up there with Monaco. I've had six of them (wins) now, but this one would be the next-highest on my list, if you like."
Red Bull and Ferrari look to be the two teams to beat based on pre-season testing times, but Webber is wary of Albert Park's reputation as a car-breaker this weekend.
"This is just a brutal event in terms of car preparation," he says.
"You can fail to finish in the first few races very easily. We've just done an amazing amount of mileage in the (northern hemisphere) winter, but the cars are incredibly complicated. I predict we're going to have good reliability this year, and I really hope that we do because we have some good things in place with the car.
"But I just want a smooth Sunday this weekend and to get started with a good result."

Down in the Lone Star State, they have been having quite a lively debate in the Texas State Legislature on abortion rights. It seems that the Republican majority was pushing a bill that would ban abortion after 20 weeks of pregnancy. It would also require that clinics offering abortions meet the same standards as surgical centers.
Well, it seems that as the final vote drew near and the Texas Senate gallery filled with riotous pro-abortion demonstrators yelling and threatening those who supported the bill, a Phoenix rose from the clamor. She was an instant heroine who had come to save the day for women who choose themselves over that of a new life entering the world. She became quickly recognizable by her blonde hair, her eyes that seemed to always be gazing to the horizon (certainly not heaven) and the rouge red (not pink) exercise shoes that supported her superhuman efforts to filibuster for 11 hours and bring a halt to the bill's passage. Her Twitter disciples rose from 1,200 to 20,000 within a 12-hour period.
She is Wendy Davis, Texas state legislator extraordinaire!
The liberal media had instantly found a new celebrity. Countless news accounts had within 24 hours turned Ms. Davis from an unknown into a household word, at least within the state of Texas and the dorms at Smithy College.
The comments describing her were full of adulation:
"She's inspiring," said an admirer.
"She's smart at a whip," claimed another.
"She's a grandstander." Oops! That must have come from a sourpuss Republican.
In bold headlines, The Dallas Morning News stated, "Davis is set for the fast track!"
They were already comparing her to former Texas Gov. Ann "Silver Spoon" Richards. In fact, odds were already being given by bookies on her chances to win the governor's office. They called her a scrapper. The Morning News wrote that when Davis was just 14 "she had after school jobs selling newspaper subscriptions and working at a juice bar. By 19, she was a single mother herself, divorced, working two jobs and living in a trailer park."
The miracle of her own life continued as she went onto community college, then Harvard and became, of all things, a lawyer and then, of course, a politician.
All of this is interesting considering that Democrats don't believe people are incapable of surviving without government handouts. By the way, do you think her supporters were thanking Davis' mother for not having an abortion?
In the end, confusion reigned and the final vote that was passed was ultimately rendered invalid due to time. Pro-abortionists Wendy Davis had saved the day. Davis would claim that she did in behalf of all Texans. She announced, "They (pro-abortion women) were asking for their voices to be heard. The rules speak for themselves."
But then, as it is always quietly asked, "Who speaks for the fetuses?" Who raises their voice for those lives who will not be allowed to live?
Davis stated that she was speaking for Texans, but according to polls more than 60 percent of the state's population supported the bill. I would imagine that 100 percent of the fetuses would have lent their support.
Abortion wasn't being outlawed. Why is it too much to ask for women to be able to make a decision within 20 weeks of pregnancy? Why is it wrong to require abortion clinics to meet higher medical standards that would only make it safer for the patient?
Have we so soon forgotten the atrocities of the Philadelphia abortion doctor and convicted murderer Kermit Gosnell? As stated by the Washington Examiner, the very unsanitary conditions that existed in Gosnell's clinic and the "horrific methods he used to 'ensure demise' of babies already born and wriggling" are in fact the issues that the Texas bill was trying to address and so vigorously opposed by Sen. Davis.
The progressive media would rather give biased kudos to a woman like Davis over, say, someone like former abortion doctor, now pro-life advocate Dr. Bernard Nathanson, or even the woman behind the Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade, Norma McCorvey, who now regrets her decision and speaks out against abortion.
Dr. Nathanson once wrote about his experience of performing abortions: "You ask if perhaps for a fleeting moment or so I experienced a flicker of regret, a microgram of remorse? No and no. And that is the mentality of the abortionist … another demonstration of moral neutrality of advanced technology in the hands of the amoral."
It is my opinion that much the same can be said of the mentality of Wendy Davis.

Seersucker Cotton Pajamas
100% Cotton Pajamas in Striped Seersucker Are Warm-Weather Classics
Seersucker Cotton Pajamas 12 12
Love these! I didn't have any of the concerns expressed by other reviewers. Regarding size, I took a chance since I usually wear XS or size 4, so these are roomy on me, and I like that. I've never had the buttons come unfastened. I love these pjs, just ordered a third pair. August 6, 2013
I love seersucker PJ's Purple is my favorite color & these PJ's are soft & cozy & make me feel like a little girl again. Thank you for having products that bring back wonderful memories. September 27, 2013
LOVE THE SEERSUCKER MATERIAL I have three pairs of these pajamas and I love the material. However, I had to have the button holes on all three altered so that they did not come unbuttoned. These pajamas also need ironing, especially on the inside of the pajamas where the top buttons. These issues would not deter me from buying another pair, because they are comfortable. August 13, 2013
So comfortable! I bought these pajamas before I had shoulder surgery---The pajama shirt was easy to put on since I could not raise my arm. The 100% cotton material is high quality. August 6, 2013
Disappointment Not happy with elastic in pajama pants. Pajama top should be longer and buttons should be larger with proper button holes. Mine come unbuttoned at night. July 25, 2013
Size I ordered these pajamas in size Large because I had gotten a pair just like these (also in size Large) a few years ago. I was very disappointed when this pair arrived because the pants legs were 6 to 7 inches longer than the previous pair--and the top was exceptionally large also. Otherwise I really like the seersucker material of these pajamas but the sizing apparently has changed. I did not reorder the pajamas in a Medium because I was concerned they would not fit either! July 21, 2013
Very Comfy I saw some negative comments about the buttons opening up. I took a chance and bought them anyway. I have not had any problem with them so far. July 20, 2013
Order a size larger I bought these PJ'S in medium/however, being 100% cotton, they shrunk. I sent them back and ordered a large and am waiting for them in the mail. The price is high, but the item is well made and I should have them for years to come. June 24, 2013
What Our Customers Are Saying about Our Seersucker Cotton Pajamas …
"These pretty pink pjs are incredibly comfortable, fit well and look nice. I always have a great sleep in them. Two thumbs up from me!" - Debi, Tehachapi, CA"
""These seersucker PJs are my absolute favorites for three summers in a row. The pure soft cotton is not scratchy. I'm still loving my original pink PJs (3 years old, a bit too dogged up for house guests), so I'm back for the yellow or lavender. "" - Patricia Rains, San Diego, CA"

Hell, I can even pay directly to SI using PayPal if that speeds things up. It's the weekend, I want to waste it playing FM!
Can someone upload a link for WWSM 8.0.1 Patch. I can't find it anywhere!
I get a 404 error when trying to download the mac WWSM try and buy version: http://download.sega.com/u/nasa/wwsm_2008.zip
Dear Marc Duffy,
Since I haven't heard back from you via email or spoke to you on MSN for about a month, answer me this question at least here when you see it.
Is it possible for me or someone else in North America to BUY yet another version of digital download, so a friend of ours in China can download and install and play it instead?
This may be what we have to do in order to get Jpee (creator of FMM editor), the WWSM version. And a couple of us are willing to do so. We just need to know if it'll work however.
Same for me, now that the patch is out I would really like to buy this, please fix it.Originally posted by wolly:

Whats wrong with the Futbol Manager mac download?
The WSM2008 digital download for MAC is not working!!!
the link to download wsm2008 for mac is still not working
Futbol manager mac south america is still not downloading either. I bought the game, had a problem on my computer, had to download again, and the site just disappered. Nobody answers on this formum. I trust the creators of the game, but I dont know if I should trust e-sellerate, or whatever you call it. On there site there is no reference to Futbol Manager. What should I do? Cancel my credit card order? At this point,what I really want is an answer, in order to think better before taking any decision.
Can anyone tell me why the digital download of the MAC WSM and Futbol Manager versions are now working???
sorry, i meant not working!!Can
Obviously, as the posts above state, the Mac download is not working at all. I would like to reiterate that. I just learned about WSM 08 and want VERY much to check this out and probably purchase it (especially from all the great things I keep hearing about it). This has clearly been an issue for a few days now, so can we at least get a comment on what the situation is with the Mac download? Of course, a solution would be better, but at least a word on what's up would be nice.
Whatâs about french version ? No reseller of the box version in Quebec City (Quebec, Canada).
Please !!!
Any ideas when Football Manager 2008 will be available for downloading for the rest of us (not living in US or S-A)?
Do license codes work with both PC and Mac versions of the game? I'd like to throw FM onto my PC laptop but I've bought the Mac ver.
You can select French in the game.Originally posted by Corcha:

Argh!! what about those in Asia. Anyone have any suggestions because I can't speak Korean!!!
pls, can we have some answears mark....i really want to get the game....but i just need answears....pls
I can't emphesize the statement above enough. I made a post weeks ago, and sent emails to 2 locations (the first one I sent, gave me back an auto email telling me to post on here first...which I already did). All I want to know is what is going on with the Mac download for this game. If it is not fixed, then is it even being worked on? Is it even on the radar? If we're just being ignored, then it would be cool to know so I dont waist my time waiting for this damn game. I mean, this IS a professional thing right? It seemed that all questions were being answered promptly, until this Mac download problem started happening. All of the sudden, the admin's disappeared?
Look, just tell us...please. Is it being fixed or not? I've been checking this page pretty much every day since I began looking at this game, only wanting an answer...thinking that it couldnt be more than a few hours away. Its only a few sentences. No email response...no post response...just let me know if I can look forward to downloading this game or not...
and I KNOW I can order the cd...but I would like to try it out first...and the Mac demo isnt working either...the download says "Try & Buy." I would just like that chance...
Thank You.
yeah i second that
i want to learn about the situation of the digital download for the mac version
Can you purchase the full version of Worldwide Soccer Manager 2008 from the demo, or do you have to purchase the full version separately
now that I reformatted my laptop, the fact that the download link for Mac WWSM is gone is somewhat troubling.
I've dropped Marc a line, but given that it's the holidays, is there anyone else here who can help me?
Go to the SEGA site and the download links are near the top left of the page:

Yes, just wait for the header graphic to load and the graphics on the left side of the image will say: PC/MAC CD-ROM, PC DOWNLOAD and MAC DOWNLOAD. It worked like a charm for me. And when you launch it, it will come up with an application to connect you to the eSellerate store where you can purchase for US$29.95.
Don't bother with the text link near the top if you're on a Mac.
wow, I have no idea how I missed that.
I appreciate it greatly.
Any news from this?We are also going to be releasing a digital version of Football Manager 2008 at some point after 8.0.1 ships so this may suit any of you in other countries who are unable to get the game delivered.
And does this mean that Fm08 digitally loadable also in countries where boxed version is available?
Hard to say seeing as SI/Sega have forgot about this thread. Maybe they're focused on the next game, patch or the PSP-version or something. I tried sending mails to both Vaughan and that guy from Sega, but neither have replied.
It's pretty amateurish that the game hasn't been made available as a digital download yet for all of Europe (and the world for that matter). This isn't exactly the third world, must I buy the bloody boxed version?
I don't want the manual, I don't want a paper or plastic box/container, I don't want a poster or a mousepad - I just want the game!

I don't know what's going on now, being a mere customer. I'm still waiting for an answer as to whether or not there's a downloadable PC version I can use a Mac reg code on.
Is anyone else having trouble downloading the game from Boonty? I have the downloader installed and unlocked, but it won't connect to actually download it. Is there anyway else to download it?
SAme issue as you; bought today but unable to connect to the server to download; firewall is off.
Having the same problem - bought the game finally but can't download it from Boonty.
Bought game yesterday, been trying to download for 24 hours now, nothing working, and i see other people having same problems with download as well. So if you are thinking of buying game via download, just stay away, at least until "if" it gets fixed.
Try going to Boonty's home page and doing a find on Worldwide Soccer Manager 2008, click on Buy this Game Now, and it should take you to another page that has "Download WWSM2008 Now". I just did it now and it seems to work without repurchasing. But I haven't figured out if this is just a demo or it's registered my copy somehow.
Went to that Boonty site (At least I think it was the correct one) and they've no link to WSM2008. 2007? Yes, but not 2008. Can you post a link here please?
Yeah, if you just go to boonty.com, it won't show up. But the above should work - I just tried it. Sorry, I didn't notice that distinction originally.
Thanks! I'm downloading now; hopefully it will be complete or at least recognize my transaction number from yesterday.
Looks like its working fine. Thanks Opeth you're a lifesaver.

Nothing? This isn't improving my views of SI over the last couple years.
I'm trying to install the game on my laptop and keep receiving a message saying "The SERIAL was not found in the database." I have checked the number numerous times and it is correct. I have the game up and running on my desktop. How do I go about getting it going on my laptop?
Tried e-mailing email@example.com as the error message suggested but it is always returned as undeliverable.
Sorted. Had to redownload instead of just copying dolwnload files from my desktop.
Hi Marc
I downloaded the games and all works well but i can't find the manual could you tell me where it is located?
Thanks a bunch
Grr - so I had to reformat my computer a few times over the past week due to problems - got it all sorted out now, but can't unlock WWSM. I assume I've hit the "amount of times it has been installed" mark. The Boonty webpage has a section where you can get a new code by completing a form - here is the page but of course, WWSM isn't bloody listed. I guess I have to contact their customer service(and of course, WWSM isn't listed on the form there). Anyone got any idea how long they generally take to respond? I e-mailed them twice last week due to an issue with their page, and never received a response from that either.
hey everyone, has anybody managed to purchase wwsm08 from Europe yet?
I prefer digital versions to boxed ones and would like to get this game.
Also are there separate patches for fm08 and wwsm08?
appreciate any replies
bodonodon, I believe you aren't allowed to download if you live in Europe, though I may be mistaken.
On the topic of digital downloads, is the Mac version ever going to be up? Or was that a limited time only offer?
I downloaded the Mac version in November - and paid for it too. I need reinstall it though to check out the new patch. I hope it's still available (it really should be). SI?Originally posted by Guinness79:

I second that, I've been dying to buy Football Manager 2008 for my Mac but it is hard to find the Mac boxed version and the didgital download version doesn't seem to exist. SI !!! HELP !!!
I guess it's too late now. They've finished working on the game, they've finished providing support and answers to the questions. They're probably to busy with FM Live to even acknowledge the world around them.
Why, I don't know. Maybe it's because they've had all the award ceremonies for games. Maybe they've already sold enough to make the game a success. It's like U2, as long as they sell 5 million albums, who cares if the songs are so-so?
I'm not really this cynical, but this is the first time I've experienced this kind of blatant disregard from SI.
Love the games, hating this.
Football Manager 08, Worldwide Soccer Manager 08 and Futbol Manager 08 are available on steam as digital purchase.
For the Mac version of WWSM, the link on the Sega site doesn't work:
Is there anywhere to download the try and buy? I don't want to get the CD version - seems like a waste.
Here is the Sega North America link:
I was finally able to download from here.
I have downloaded the Mac version of WSM 08. However, I am unable to purchase the product as when the e-sellerate purchase screen appears, there is no option to buy WSM 08. This problem has been brought up in a separate forum:
as well. Is there something that I am doing wrong or something I need to do differently in order to complete the purchasing process? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Will WSM 08 be made available for purchase through digital download again?
In order to play with a friend who has WSM 2007, I've tried to download and buy WSM 2007. The try and buy demo is evidently crippleware, and even after buying the game via the built-in app, there are features missing such as the pre-game editor.
What do I need to do in order to get the full version of 2007 going, or get my money back?
I did figure out how to fix my problem:
A) Reinstall using your Order ID.
B) Install the patch.
Since I'm not allowed to edit my own posts (and whose brilliant idea was that? ), I need to clarify that you can do one or the other, it doesn't require both to fix the issue I was asking about.Originally posted by Kristopher:

I am interested in buying Worldwide Soccer Manager 08 on Steam....can someone verify which version is on Steam? What is the update process like for Steam versions??
hi , tried downloading football manager 2008, entered all the payment details and then it came up with a screen saying it was calculating my license, then nothing happened. havent received my confirmation e-mail either. anyone know what i can do??
unable to buy....how stupid! >:|
so has anybody been able to find a digital download for WSM 2008 for mac anywhere ? i've been dying to play the game for so long, come on SI ! I mean its easier to find Eastside Hockey Manager for godsakes
I'm downloading the Steam version now, Weeeeee, please let FM2009 be on steam straight away
Hi Marc,
I have just purchased WSM 2008 but am not sure if it's been patched to the latest level (8.0.2 ?)
If it hasn't - where can I get the latest patch for WSM 2008 ? The update functionality within the game brings me to an error page on the SI site saying that the download was not found in your download archives.
What's gonna the price for the 2009's version and when it gonna be released?!
Is WWSM 08 compatable with Windows Vista? I just got a new lap top and want to download it so I can play when I am on vacation, or will I have to wait for 09 to be compatable with Vista?
I already have the CD (or is it DVD? - whichever!) version of FM2008. I'd now like to get the digital download version for my notebook (no CD or DVD drive). Is there any way I could get it for free?
