For many years I have been involved in training new motorcyclists, coaching them on the basic skills required to ride a motorcycle and eventually more advanced skills, but all built on a foundation of the basics. This is where there are similarities with training a new inside sales rep and training a new rider. On the surface they may seem worlds apart.

Legends in Concert
By Chuck Rounds
Note: Now playing at the Flamingo Las Vegas
"Legends in Concert" plays inside the Legends showroom at the Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino. It is an opportunity to watch the recreation of the live performances of some of the musical greats of our time. The newly reformatted production brings out Stephen Sorrentino as the host of the show---delighting us between performances of impersonators of Rod Stewart, Janet Jackson, Marilyn Monroe, and of course, Elvis. Sorrentino is also a pleasure to watch with his impersonation of Elton John.
Each of the performers does their best to give us the look, the sound, and the style of each of these artists. They are supported by the "Legend's Band," and the "Legend's Dancers." Each of these support groups is excellent. The musicians and the dancers are the hardest working members of this company, and they truly do an outstanding job. They are the true stars of the production. These two groups worked throughout the production, bending and transforming themselves into whatever style and genre was needed. I couldn't find a weak link in either the musicians or the dancers. Part of me just wanted to forget the impersonators, and just go for an evening of music and dancing. These two groups were fully capable of carrying an entire evening of entertainment themselves.
The impersonators did a fine job. They did, in fact, recreate the performance of their respective star. As the impersonator performed, video footage of the real performer played simultaneously. At times, there was the question as to which I preferred watching...the screen or the performer.
I guess I have a problem watching a performance being simply 'recreated.' I want more from my impersonators. I want to see the aspects of a performance that I've never seen. I want to see something new and unique with my classic musical artists. I can pull up old video footage any time that I like...seeing it live was nice for a moment...and then the moment passed.
The one person that did stand out and did give me a delightful uniqueness was the Marilyn Monroe impersonator. She was wonderful. She brought this character to life and made her vibrant.
The other great part of the show was watching Stephen Sorrentino perform (not so much as Elton John, but) as himself. He is very talented and does a full range of impersonations. His quick witted manner and energy really carried the performance forward.
The Legends Theatre inside the Imperial Palace is a fairly well appointed medium sized theatre. It is set up in the classic Vegas showroom style. The audience does get a bit crammed in with the seating. There is good lighting and sound, and several monitors that show both taped shots of the real performers as well as live shots of the impersonators. I thought that this was a really nice touch and kept the audience entertained with both the real and the fantasy.
The production of "Legends in Concert," works. We never forget that these are impersonators, and they put on a fairly lively show for us. The dancers and the musicians are great.

Sunday's New England Patriots Links 10/9
By: Ian Logue
One quick note before we get to the links. It's ironic that just less than one week after he made a classy move by offering a moment of silence for Myra Kraft before last Sunday's game at the Coliseum in Oakland, Raiders owner Al Davis passed away on Saturday. For any animosity Patriots fans may hold toward him, that's one memory that will certainly stand out in my mind for years to come.
Needless to say the odds are pretty good there will be a moment of silence for him today at Gillette Stadium, as he had a big impact on the game and will obviously be missed.

A third of unemployed young people feel depressed, rarely leave the house and believe they have no chance of ever securing employment, according to a report released today.
The study, commissioned as part of the Knowledge Economy campaign, looked specifically at young people aged 16 to 24 who were not in education or working.
It was conducted by the University and College Union and found that 40 per cent of young people who were unemployed, or 'NEETS', feel that they are "not part of society".
In addition, 33 per cent said they had suffered from depression and 15 per cent claimed to have a mental health condition. However, whilst the respondents were a "diverse group" who "all had different needs", 71 per cent said that they felt they had a lot to contribute to society, as long as they were provided with the right support.
This support would need to arrive in the form of motivational incentives and clear information on training schemes and job prospects, with one in three seeking "decent advice" on how to apply for work.
The UCU described the results as "heartbreaking" and called for a new contract to be established between society and the young, stressing that each NEET costs the Exchequer £56,000.
Speaking in response to the report, Professor Robin Simmons of the University of Huddersfield said the report's findings were both "disturbing and sobering". He said they "clearly illustrate the negative consequences for the individual and society of being outside education and employment".
"The research illustrates the corrosive effect that unemployment can have on a young person's confidence, motivation, and their view of the future," he added.
Simon Renton, UCU president said the report lays bare "the deep personal impact that sustained unemployment has on young people".
"It is truly heartbreaking to see so many people who want to contribute more to society but are left feeling their outlook is desperate and hopeless."

Questions and Answers
Is it possible to grow beard, even if it's not in my genes?
Growing beard for me is too hard. What should I do?
Depending on your genes, it can be difficult or impossible to grow a beard. If you are under the age of 30 don't assume it is bad genes. Many men are late bloomers for substantial facial hair. Some men find they can induce thicker beard growth through regular shaving even if at first you don't have the hair to shave. You can also try the creams, and vitamin regimens discussed in the main article(below), but for certain ethnicities, it is not possible to grow a beard. Remember your age may be the limiting factor. Many people find that it is difficult to grow a beard until well into their 20s, and some even later in age.
Factors that may be delaying your beard growth:
- 1Microwaving in plastic containers, even if they are microwave safe or drinking bottled water exposed to sunlight.Drinking water from water bottles exposed to the sun or repeatedly heated. Water bottles, when exposed to the sun, release BPA, which scientists think may mimic estrogen which are female hormones. Your body may be reacting to an unnaturally high level of BPA thinking they are female hormones.
- 2Eating significant portions of Tofu or other soy based products like soy milk.Although plant-based proteins are thought to be cleaner and healthier than animal-based protein, they are often based on soy protein, which releases isoflavones in your body, which mimics estrogen in our bodies.

How to get my beard to connect?
Hello, I'm 18 and trying to grow a beard and I can't get my mustache to connect to my chin and side hairs, any solution?

Problems about growing thicker beard?
I have thicker hairs on chin area and on my mustaches, but not able to grow thick hair on both sides of the face. Some patches are not getting filled
Depending on your age, your beard may not yet have reached maturity. The cheek area usually has patchy spots and the only way for you now to fill these areas in would be to use an oil like Castor Oil on those areas nightly before bed.

You may have to trim your chin and mustache but do not trim your cheeks and see if after 4 weeks you have a fuller beard.
See more questions like this: My beard grows thicker on the left, I have gaps on the right. How do I fix this
I am around 26 years old, but still no hair growing on the face (Chin and Mustache), I have been consulting with Endocrine specialist his name is Dr.Mathew John and he consulted and injected SUSTANON 250 for 3 months every month I used one dosage of this medicine but unfortunately no improvement after that and who advised me to meet trichologist ,dermatologist for checking and further treatment. In this situation, what must I do to grow hair on the face. Kindly advise please
It takes longer than 3 months for your testosterone levels to even out and allow hair growth to start. You should ask Dr. Mathew John if you can continue the injections or look into Androgel as a possibility. The other specialists he has recommended would be worth visiting if you desire a full beard. Some men just never reach the beard potential they always wanted but it is not the end of the world for them. You can also consider hair transplants to your face if you are still not satisfied with other medical treatments. Biotin and avoiding foods with DHT can also help you. Stop Hair Loss by Eating These 18 DHT Blocking Foods lists foods that you should avoid.

I am 23 still I don't have a proper beard, I feel ashamed of it, please suggest a solution for this
Unfortunately, there is no real solution for males who cannot grow a proper beard because the ability to grow hair on the face is mostly determined due heredity. However, you are still young and many men do not reach their optimum facial hair growth capacity until they are approaching their thirties, so be patient - it could still happen. However, your ability to grow hair has everything to do with how your body reacts to the testosterone it produces and many men have physiologies that are not provoked to grow hair no matter how much of the testosterone your body actually produces.

How to make my uneven beard thicker and how to grow it?
I am 28 years old and I still have not grown a full beard. I have very thin hair on the side of my chin which can't be visible easily. I can say I have a stunted growth on my chins. The rest of my beard is fully grown. I heard that we should not trim it for at least 1 month..well, I have tried it..but couldn't see good results..and now I trim my rest of the beard and mustache except the side of the chin, so what should I do to grow my full beard??
During the next month of not shaving or trimming, start to apply castor oil or amla mustard leaves to your patchy areas. You have decent growth everywhere else, so there is hope, you can fill in the patchy areas, either with new growth or better length. You should use facial wax to get the longer hairs to cover your patchy bald spots.

I have tried: I have tried not shaving and shaving regularly. I have also got a very high protein diet. I think it was caused by: Genetics
Do you consume soy food products regularly? If so, avoid those foods and foods fried in soybean oil. Instead, begin using Avocado Oil in the place of all other cooking oils.

Thin beard hair needs to grow and over time will the beard will become thicker. Use Hibiscus flowers and leaves and make a poultice to apply to your facial hair several times a week. Castor Oil can be applied to the areas to encourage more hair growth. Invest in a beard grooming kit to brush out your beard daily and exfoliate your face twice a week.
My son is 26 and still does not have a beard, is something wrong, I am concerned as a medical worker?
Is this a medical problem and will affect his ability to masculinity etc. I have tried: Nothing except normal vitamin
There could be a few reasons medically as to why he has not grown his beard yet. You should have him tested for hormonal functions to see if he is low on testosterone or has a thyroid disorder if he has very little facial hair. Some men do not ever get full facial hair though until they are closer to 35. Since you are worried, you can get his hormones tested and create a plan to treat him when you get the results.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/forum.php)
- Beginner Planted Aquarium (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-planted-aquarium/)
- - Can these plants go together? Also Cycling questions (http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/beginner-planted-aquarium/can-these-plants-go-together-also-122913/)
Can these plants go together? Also Cycling questions
So I am going to start cycling my first aquarium soon (50 gallons, freshwater), and I can't decide on which method to use.
I've done some research and know I want to have the following plants in my aquarium before I add my fish:
Brazillian Pennywort
Water Sprite
Dwarf Hygrophilia
Amazon Sword
Will these work together? My goal water parameters at the end of all this are 75-79º F, KH 2-5, pH 5.8-7.0, GH- below 12 (the softer the better, really).
Should I do a plant cycle only? Or a shrimp cycle first? Or a fish flake cycle? Or some combination?
And for however relevant it is, these are my intended fish:
6 Lemon Tetra (these would go in first, to help the cycling)
2 Bleeding Heart Tetra
2 Marble Veil Angelfish
2 Smokey Leopard Veil Angelfish
1 Black Angel
8 Nanus Cory Cats
I just went through this whole decision last week. The consensus was that if you are planting it, particularly with a lot of plants, you don't need to do the cycle.
The idea is that the ammonia is sucked up by the plants eliminating the need for the bacteria for that purpose.
Here's a link to one of the posts going over the processes involved.
Another less wordy post, same result, no cycle.
The plants are fine, butthere are a couple issues with the fish you mentioned..
Angels need to be in a "school" unless you have a mated pair. Too small of a group will result in one or two angels being bullied by the "alpha male".
Tetras should be in groups of at least 6, but the more the better. The groups don't neccesarily have to be the same species if they are all similiar enough (eg., neons and cardinals might be similiar enough, or neons and 'false' neons would school)
Well the OP has 5 angelfish listed so this should be ok. Up the Bleeding Heart tetras to 6. Even with a heavily planted tank remember to add fish slowly, waiting at least a couple weeks between additions and watch your parameters.
Posted via Mobile Device
Thanks for the help, I heard that 5 angels should be enough (and I don't want to put too much of a strain on my tank; I'm already at 60 inches of fish for 50 gallons). But if you think I should reconsider, I guess I'll look at other options (maybe take out some cory cats).
And would you say the Bleeding Heart Tetras and the Lemon Tetras are close enough? I know there's a bit of a size difference, but other than that they seem pretty similar.
This thread is now duplicating another, here
but I'm not going to merge them since the initial issue was different. But I would suggest, randomriter, that you not maintain two threads on the same issue as this will get confusing if members can't see everything else that has been posted before posting themselves, plus we don't want to be duplicating our efforts.:-)
Easy solution is to continue the fish discussion in the other thread. Hope that's OK.
Thanks for the suggestion.

DataStax Launches Scalable Real-Time Enterprise Graph Database
The DataStax Enterprise Graph scalable, real-time graph database powers cloud apps that manage complex and highly connected data.NoSQL database provider DataStax has announced its entry into the graph database space with DataStax Enterprise (DSE) Graph. Martin Van Ryswyk, the company's executive vice president of engineering, described DataStax Enterprise Graph as a scale-out graph database built for cloud applications that need to manage highly connected data. The new offering is built on the foundation of Apache Cassandra and Apache TinkerPop, the open source graph computing framework. It also features the Gremlin graph query language and DataStax security, search capabilities and Apache Spark integration. It will be available in the second quarter of this year. A graph database is used for storing, managing and querying complex and highly connected data, Van Ryswyk said. Moreover, the graph database architecture is particularly well suited for exploring data to find commonalities and anomalies among large data volumes and unlocking the value contained in the data's relationships. In addition to that, however, DSE Graph delivers continuous uptime, performance and scalability for modern systems dealing with complex and constantly changing data.
DataStax Enterprise Graph was inspired by the open-source Titan graph database. DataStax acquired Aurelius, the team behind Titan, last year and the team has built a new set of software that extends beyond the basic capabilities of Titan while still maintaining backwards compatibility.

"Yalta - Massandra" Massandra by Kuznetsov_Sergey
Massandra Travel Guide: 25 reviews and 74 photos
I've been to Yalta four times before this January: in 1967, 1972, 1973 and 1980. This city has become native and close to me since my youth. It's difficult to believe that Yalta is abroad Russia now...
We decided with my colleagues to spend our New Year-Christmas long holiday in Yalta in January of 2007. And I think we haven't mistaken! After 27 year of absence I saw a lot of new and attractive there, besides that I was happy to remind the places which I knew from early youth.
Our hotel was situated in Massandra. It's one of the most beautiful hotels in the Crimea since Soviet times. If you make a decision to come to Yalta - choose this hotel.
Only 20 minutes walk from the centre of Yalta and very developed tourist infrastructure makes this hotel very convenient for staying.
Welcome to the Crimea, welcome to Yalta, welcome to Massandra!

A very pleasant place to relax and enjoy the water. Great job of comments and pictures. How did the pics pass approval? I invite you to take a look at my last trip to 11 parks in Utah & Arizona in US. It was an adventure and scary in remote areas.
It's a wonderful place indeed... so much to do there and to enjoy!
interesting place to visit. it looks like i will be there this summer :-) Intourist seems great place, I took a note to stay there :-)
Alexander's Palace is indeed very beautiful, inside and out. And what a lovely time of year to go there with all the Christmas shows and celebrations.
Such a surprise to see how much things have changed in Massandra - nice to know the Palaces are open to everyone now
It must be amazing to find that some things have not changed in 40 years while other have so much! At first sight, I was amazed to find that Alexander 3rd palace looked so French but found that you explained why, not pure chance! Great page!
The Palace is my favorite in this part of Crimea. But I've never been inside. Thanks for sharing!

Consider situation when you have more Cassandra servers. It would require time synchronization in Cassandra itself. So we have to have time synchronization - on applications servers or Cassandra servers. I'm not sure if this is concern of Cassandra but it would be good for me...
To whom it may concern,
While timestamp parameter is auto generated by using cassandra-cli tool, why user have to manually insert the parameter in Cassandra-Thrift "insert" API??
In my point of view, leaving time-stamp to be inserted by client side will lead data into chaos, since clients' local time might be vary....
Time-Stamp better be generated automatically and consistently by Cassandra Server itself isn't it?
Any idea??

Avengers Fanboys, Check It Out
January 3, 2013 1 Comment
Screenwriter Todd Alcott has a series of great posts about the Avengers movie that look at the movie with a different set of eyes.
Where is the helicopter going?  The helicopter is going to some sort of government installation, The Joint Dark Energy Something.  What's happening at the Joint Dark Energy Something is that everybody there is getting the hell out.  This, in screenwriting, is called "getting into the scene as late as possible."  We don't know what everyone is running from, we only know that they are running.  This, too, increases audience involvement.  The audience leans forward to gather information when they are not spoon-fed it by a cautious narrative. We don't even get a clear look at the sign.  Do we need to know exactly what this place is?  Not really — the sheer size of it, which we've seen from our helicopter's POV, is enough to indicate that it is "important," and the panic erupting all over is enough to indicate that it is in great danger.  Again, stakes.  "Important" and "Great Danger."  Concision.
Everyone at the Joint Dark Energy Something is in a panic, except this guy, this guy who's there to greet the helicopter.  This guy is, Marvel fans will know, Agent Coulson, beloved agent of SHIELD.  But to the viewer who just wandered in from off the street, all we know is that he is The One Guy Who Isn't Running Around Panicked.  That makes him very powerful in his own right, and the fact that he is waiting for the helicopter makes whoever is in the helicopter that much more powerful. Keep in mind, we're still only a minute or so into the movie — if nothing else, The Avengers is a sleek deliverer of information.  We've not only been given a ton of information, we've been given it in a highly cinematic style.
And finally, after an exhausting two minutes of movie, we meet our protagonist, Nick Fury, getting out of the helicopter. Â This is the powerful man in the helicopter, this is the man The Only Man Not Panicking is waiting for. Â Everyone else is Running Away, this man is Walking Toward. Â You don't need to know anything else, he hasn't opened his mouth, he hasn't introduced himself, all he's done is fly in in a helicopter and get out, and already you know he's very important and very powerful.

It was on a beautiful spring afternoon in New York that a close friend introduced me to someone she thought would be the perfect man for me. He was creative, successful, soulful, sensual, and single, and he was into me.
I had lived in the city before, with my mother and sister, but now, because I was on my own, I felt like it was a different country. Without the haven of my family, I felt very exposed and unprotected. It was as if I were standing in a house in which the floors had not yet been laid.
A part of me was longing to be embraced by a loving, warm man so that I could feel safe and cherished. I thought that the presence of a man in my life was the only way to feel truly secure. I deeply desired the intimacy, connection, and joy of a relationship, as well as the solid foundation, and I anticipated that within the stable framework of "us," I could start to lay the planks for my new life.
I believed that this man and I could have all that I had dreamed of. Being with him gave me a lot of the things I was looking for, and we began to build what I thought was real intimacy. He was attentive and interesting, strong and seemingly very present, and the warmth of his presence felt like the family I missed. He loved the arts and theater, as well as music, dance, and food. He had an inner depth that called to me powerfully. In his eyes, I felt accepted and beautiful, free to be myself. I felt that he knew me -- really saw me -- and that was the greatest aphrodisiac of all. I started to open my heart and take him in.
One night, I called my mother from his apartment, telling her how happy I was. I said, "Mom, I think he is the one!" I wanted him to be the one -- for me, for her, and for my whole family, who so wanted me to marry. I was pinning a lot of hopes on this man, expecting him to fill the void in me, the part that felt incomplete and feared to be alone. I was already projecting the happily-ever-after. And, my, was I happy! Was I moving in with him in my mind? Yes. Was I decorating our imaginary home? Yes. All of which is to say that I was going about our relationship too fast, and in the wrong way. I kept looking to him to fill the emptiness. I wanted the experience of being significant to a man, so I could feel valued and whole. My fantasies were headed for a collision with reality. Little did I know that this man was deeply wounded from a childhood with a domineering mother and from a bitter divorce, after which he'd directed all his affections toward his young son. Emotionally, he wasn't available at all.
Six months into our relationship, he had a health scare that required surgery. He told me about it one night as we were lying in bed. He suddenly felt vulnerable, out of control, and very frightened. I, of course, wanted to comfort and nurture him.
He had specifically asked me not to go to the hospital with him, so instead I went to his house the day after, bringing food, games, DVDs, and me. We lay together on his bed eating and talking, and he eventually fell asleep in my arms. My heart was wide open, and the feeling was tender, calm, and sweet. That was the moment when, if words had been spoken, I would have said, "I love you." But something stopped me. It was the fear that if I said it, I would scare him and he would leave me.
What happened after he woke up was a classic example of mismatched expectations. He was anticipating a visit from his family, and I knew it was better for him to be alone with them. So I went back to my apartment, where I waited for him to call and ask me to return and spend the night. Instead, he called and said it was better for him to rest by himself. "Of course," I said. "I understand." But the truth was I didn't understand. What went wrong? I asked myself. Why doesn't he want me to be with him?
It took a long time before I realized that I had come up against this man's own closed heart. Perhaps seeing his domineering mother had triggered old fears and hurts. Whatever the reason, when he didn't ask me to come back, I took it personally and felt rejected. If I were to write his script, these are the words he would say to make me understand: I see your love, I feel your love, but truly, darling, right now there is no place in me to receive it.
That was the beginning of the end. I had lost my trust in the relationship. I never talked about my feelings; instead, I chose to withdraw. When I saw him again, something had changed. The connection seemed different, and neither of us knew how to restore it.
In this man, I saw my father and other men I had known who were shut down to love. Was it fear of being controlled? Was it feeling of unworthy or undeserving? Or simply the reluctance to risk feeling pain? It takes a lot of courage to make ourselves vulnerable to love, to keep opening up when every part of us wants to shut down. It takes mutual commitment and a willingness to sacrifice our world as we know it. We had reached a point where we were each unwilling to sacrifice and unable to let the other in.
I had to course-correct. I realized that if I wanted to have a healthy, happy relationship with a man, I had to have more of me intact. I knew how to merge -- that wasn't a problem -- but I didn't really know how to stand on my own solid foundation.
The transformation that took place after that realization was quite amazing. I decided I was going to take a sabbatical from men and pull my energy back to me. Whatever part of me believed that I couldn't feel happy and complete without a man's love was going to come under my care and receive my full attention now.
He and I had one more conversation, in which we both admitted that things had shifted, and we agreed to put some distance between us. After that, with no more distractions, no man, my family far away on the West Coast, I had the space to focus on my life by myself. Having been a caretaker all my life, it was a little strange at the beginning: There was no one to take care of but me.
Have you ever seen one of those Advent calendars that children are given before Christmas? Every day you open a little window that has a picture behind it. It can be magical as you wait to see what will come next. That's how I felt' as if I were opening little windows into myself, gaining strength and confidence with each opening. My windows were hiding so many inner riches!
One day I discovered that I could really enjoy being by myself if I had an environment around me that was nurturing and uplifting -- so I began to keep my favorite music playing, music that made me happy. Around the same time, I was looking for an assistant to help me with my work, and I realized I needed to choose someone who was joyful and caring and understood my sensibility. I found a young Argentinean man who made even filing fun. And I found my own rhythm and respected it, so that in the middle of a writing session in my apartment, if my body needed move, I would take myself out for a walk or a spin class. I learned to listen.
Writing my book became my way to top those inner riches. Through the goddesses, I was beginning to see my own gifts: my wisdom, my creativity, my love. I realized I had not said no to having a relationship with a man -- I had said a big YES to myself, and the windows were popping open.
In one of his dialogues, Plato talks about the "divine design" for each of us -- the idea that every person is destined for a task that no one else can accomplish, a path that no one else can take. Writing my first book became, for me, part of that divine design, an it marked the beginning of my new life as a caretaker of my gifts, filling my own cup first so that I could share with others. I copied a quote from Saint Catherine of Siena and kept it on my desk to remind me of the importance of being fully myself: "Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire."

Man. United Eyes Modric After Missing Out on Targets: RoundupBob Bensch
The following is a roundup of soccer stories from U.K. newspapers, with clickable Internet links.
Change of Plans
Manchester United is preparing a 25 million-pound ($38 million) bid for Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric after realizing it's unlikely to secure its original transfer targets, the Times said.
New manager David Moyes wanted a major signing such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale or Cesc Fabregas but has become frustrated after inquiries on all three fronts were rebuffed, the Times reported.
Reluctant Levy
Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy will reluctantly let Bale join Real Madrid if the Spanish club offers a world record 85 million pounds, plus another player, the Daily Mail said.
Levy changed his stance that Bale wasn't for sale after the Welshman decided on Spurs' preseason trip to Asia he wanted to move to Madrid, the Mail said. Levy will demand the money up front, with defender Fabio Coentrao or winger Angel di Maria being offered as part of the package, the newspaper said.
No Deal
Chelsea won't entertain any bids for David Luiz, even as Bayern Munich contemplates a 34.5 million-pound offer for the defender, the Telegraph said.
Luiz is not seeking a move, but if he were to be sold he'd prefer to leave England, the Telegraph said. Barcelona is his preferred choice, but he wouldn't balk at Bayern, the newspaper added.
Willing to Wait
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger won't increase the club's 40 million-pound offer for Liverpool striker Luis Suarez and is prepared wait to the end of the transfer period, the Daily Mirror said.
The deal hinges on the 40 million-pound clause in Suarez's contract that his advisers are adamant allows him to leave Anfield, the Mirror said.
Coming Back?
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is desperate to bring Didier Drogba back to Stamford Bridge as a player or coach, the Daily Express said.
Drogba, 35, has a year left on his contract with Turkish club Galatasaray and Mourinho has hinted he'd love to reunite with the striker, who spent eight seasons at Chelsea, the Express said.
