Private Pensions: Conflicts of Interest Can Affect Defined Benefit and Defined Contribution Plans
GAO-09-503T: Published: Mar 24, 2009. Publicly Released: Mar 24, 2009.
Conflicts of interest typically exist when someone in a position of trust, such as a pension consultant, has competing professional or personal issues. Such competing interests can make it difficult for pension plan fiduciaries and others, in general, to fulfill their duties impartially and could cause them to breach their duty to act solely in the interest of plan participants and beneficiaries....
Private Pensions: Fulfilling Fiduciary Obligations Can Present Challenges for 401(k) Plan Sponsors
GAO-08-774: Published: Jul 16, 2008. Publicly Released: Aug 15, 2008.
American workers increasingly rely on 401(k) plans for their retirement security, and sponsors of 401(k) plans--typically employers--have critical obligations under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). When acting as fiduciaries, they must act prudently and solely in the interest of plan participants and beneficiaries. The Department of Labor (Labor) is responsible for prot...
Defined Benefit Pensions: Plan Freezes Affect Millions of Participants and May Pose Retirement Income Challenges
GAO-08-817: Published: Jul 21, 2008. Publicly Released: Jul 21, 2008.
Private defined benefit (DB) pension plans are an important source of retirement income for millions of Americans. However, from 1990 to 2006, plan sponsors have voluntarily terminated over 61,000 sufficiently funded single-employer DB plans. An event preceding at least some of these terminations was a so-called plan "freeze"--an amendment to the plan to limit some or all future pension accruals f...
Defined Benefit Pensions: Survey of Sponsors of Large Defined Benefit Pension Plans (GAO-08-818SP, July 2008), an E-supplement to GAO-08-817
GAO-08-818SP: Published: Jul 21, 2008. Publicly Released: Jul 21, 2008.
Over the last five years, a number of large, high profile employers have announced their intention to freeze-- an amendment to the plan to limit some or all future pension accruals for some or all plan participants-- their larger defined benefit (DB) plans that represent a significant portion of plan liabilities and plan participants in the private DB system. To better understand the current plan...
Private Pensions: GAO Survey of 401(k) Plan Sponsor Practices (GAO-08-870SP, July 2008), an E-supplement to GAO-08-774
GAO-08-870SP: Published: Jul 16, 2008. Publicly Released: Jul 16, 2008.
American workers are increasingly reliant on 401(k) plans for their retirement security, and sponsors of 401(k) plans have critical obligations under the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). To administer these plans, the sponsor--typically the employer offering the 401(k) plan--selects plan features and other characteristics, including the types of investment options offered...
State and Local Government Pension Plans: Current Structure and Funded Status
GAO-08-983T: Published: Jul 10, 2008. Publicly Released: Jul 10, 2008.
Millions of state and local government employees are promised pension benefits when they retire. Although these benefits are not subject, for the most part, to federal laws governing private sector benefits, there is a federal interest in ensuring that all American have a secure retirement, as reflected in the special tax treatment provided for private and public pension funds. Recently, new accou...
Individual Retirement Accounts: Government Actions Could Encourage More Employers to Offer IRAs to Employees
GAO-08-890T: Published: Jun 26, 2008. Publicly Released: Jun 26, 2008.
Congress created individual retirement accounts (IRAs) with two goals: (1) to provide a retirement savings vehicle for workers without employer-sponsored retirement plans, and (2) to preserve individuals' savings in employer-sponsored retirement plans when they change jobs or retire. Questions remain about IRAs' effectiveness as a vehicle to facilitate new, or additional, retirement savings. GAO w...
Department of Energy: Information on Its Management of Costs and Liabilities for Contractors' Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans
GAO-08-642R: Published: Jun 19, 2008. Publicly Released: Jun 19, 2008.
For the past 60 years, the Department of Energy (DOE) and its predecessors have carried out their national security, environmental cleanup, and research and development missions through management and operating (M&O) contracts and other site contracts for operations at DOE-owned facilities. DOE currently has 43 such contracts with private companies and nonprofit organizations, including universiti...
Individual Retirement Accounts: Government Actions Could Encourage More Employers to Offer IRAs to Employees
GAO-08-590: Published: Jun 4, 2008. Publicly Released: Jun 4, 2008.
Congress created individual retirement accounts (IRAs) with two goals: (1) to provide a retirement savings vehicle for workers without employer-sponsored retirement plans, and (2) to preserve individuals' savings in employer-sponsored retirement plans. However, questions remain about IRAs' effectiveness in facilitating new, or additional, retirement savings. GAO was asked to report on (1) how IRA...
Private Pensions: Low Defined Contribution Plan Savings May Pose Challenges to Retirement Security, Especially for Many Low-Income Workers
GAO-08-8: Published: Nov 29, 2007. Publicly Released: Dec 11, 2007.
Over the last 25 years, pension coverage has shifted primarily from "traditional" defined benefit (DB) plans, in which workers accrue benefits based on years of service and earnings, toward defined contribution (DC) plans, in which participants accumulate retirement balances in individual accounts. DC plans provide greater portability of benefits, but shift the responsibility of saving for retirem...

A member of the Northern Elders Forum, Professor Ango Abdullahi was a guest at the book launch of Dr. Hadiza Isa Wada.
The former presidential aide said the merger of different tribes into Nigeria by Lord Frederick Lugard in 1914 was an error.
He said, Nigeria is negotiable and that if the semi federal structure Nigeria practices is no longer workable, the entire nation should be restructured.
Ango further stated that if true Federalism cannot work, then all regions should go their separate ways.
According to Ango, "If Lugard made a mistake in 1914 let's correct it now. Why not?
Read Also: The imminent disintegration of Nigeria — President Buhari: Part 1.
"If Nigerians cannot live together and allow peace and development to reign, then let's go our separate ways.
"Let's separate so that we can concentrate and develop our children and grandchildren in peace.
"There's nothing wrong with that. So many countries have gone through that before.
"So I don't believe in all these emotions and sentiments that Nigeria is indissoluble," he said.
"Take Great Britain, they've been a model for 1,000 years of democracy.
"But Scotland that had been in the union for about 350 years opted for a referendum to get out; same problem with Ireland.
"The Soviet Union was a super power many years ago, today 12 or 13 countries were created from it.
Read Also: I am qualified to be president of Nigeria — Sheriff.
"So what is so special about Nigeria? If we find truly that we cannot develop and guarantee the welfare of our people as a nation and the solution is to go our separate ways, why not?
"We the northerners were taking the brunt of it. And those who ought to have said something stayed quiet.
"India got independence in 1948, yet one or two years later Pakistan was created, and in another one or two years, Bangladesh emerged out of Pakistan.
"If we can't live together and understand each other, let us scatter," Abudullahi said.

So what's everyone got planned for the weekend? Husband has a riding
lesson Saturday and some chores to do for our water company, but I am
hoping for some major garden clean-up time. I am going to clean up the
greenhouse and maybe move some plants in, even though the weather has
been pretty warm. Then I'm not sure - I can either head for the front
yard and keep tackling that, or I can get rid of what's left in the veg
garden. The veg garden will be more satisfying since it will be easy to
tell it's done. The front yard needs the work more.
Some things I can't do because our water is going to be rationed over
the coming week. We get deliveries from a big water agency and we also
have wells, but the agency is shutting down for a week to do maintenance
so we (and everyone else in this valley who gets water from them) is
going to be short. Ask me if I think this is a good idea in the middle
of a fire season, to be shutting off the water flow. At least we have
wells but they don't put out enough to even keep all the households
supplied if they don't conserve. Should be interesting.

(please do not post in this thread until all parts have been added)
This is a guide that focuses on the very basics of deck building. The stickies here aren't really comprehensive enough when it comes to covering what a new player should look for. Hopefully this will be a lot more helpful to confused newbies.
1. Star Values
2. Before You start to Build
3. Building A Balanced Deck
4. Advanced Deck Building Techniques
5. What's Next?
No one else has any feedback?
Should I re-do this and include the two sections I added into primary guide?
is there anything else you would add?
Is this helpful enough to deserve a pin at the top? (I'd say so! )
I took some time to write this out; feedback would be appreciated
Awesome guide!!
keep it up!!!!
Nice guide I hope lots of people benefit from this
To Whom it may Concern,
I am team building right now and I'm trying to focus on a dual clan deck, is there a guide that show s what clans are good to start with or could someone give me some pointers. Right now I have mostly GHEIST and Sentinal, but I'm thinking about switching to either the Fang Pi or Bangers (of the two I have Kati for Fang and Shann from Bangers, both are real good cards). Any help would be great. Thanks

Private Anclote Island only minutes from downtown Tarpon Springs, this home has it all.
This beautiful tropical private island home has gorgeous views of a protected island, a private beach at low tide, a private pool with jacuzzi, and gulf access. Anchor your boat right behind the house! Relax in this paradise home or enjoy the famous Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks within walking distance. Take out the canoe, fish, swim, enjoy a barbecue, or relax around the pool with a cool drink while basking in the Florida Sun. There is even a family-friendly fire ring for backyard bonfires!
This four bedroom jewel has a master suite downstairs with bay windows facing the water, a flat screen tv,a jacuzzi tub, his and her sinks, and a sliding door leading to the waterfront pool and lanai. A stunning waterview from the second story balcony compliments a bedroom upstairs with queen bed and double closets. Two other bedrooms upstairs round out the sleeping arrangements with a lofted bedroom on one end and a bedroom with twins next door for the fourth bedroom. The three upstairs bedrooms open onto a mini library with internet connection and tv area with movies--a great hang out spot for the kids. If you MUST stay connected while on vacation, there is wireless internet throughout the house. The home boasts three full bathrooms; one upstairs, and two downstairs, including a pool bath.
The formal dining room seats 8 if you want to dine formal, and both the family room and dining room are tiled in marbled ceramic.
The great room is spacious and perfect for entertaining, with cathedral ceilings, a gas fireplace, a wine and buffet area, stocked with glasses and dishware for any occasion. All first floor rooms enjoy a picturesque view of the water. Sliding doors with screens open onto the backyard where you are sure to spend most of your time. Just beyond the pool and backyard firepit, a gentle slope of land leads down to the water where you can catch crabs or fish, while watching shrimp and sponge boats glide by on their way out to sea. If your luck at fishing is bad, pop around the corner and pick up a fresh seafood dinner from one of the many restaurants or fresh seafood markets. And while you're at it, grab some freshly baked Greek pastries for dessert in the largest Greek community outside of Greece, steeped in rich culture.
Your home was a wonderful place to return to, after a hard day of paddling.
Spa & pool were rejuvenating. Such relaxing breezes in the evening. Bonus to have shallow access to the water!
Henry & I enjoyed the beautiful master suite. One of the most relaxing homes that we've rented. Thank you - from Fanny & Henry & friends, Canada.
Spent a week in Tarpon Springs kayaking, biking, boating, swimming, shopping. Beckie and Fran were great to work with. Great house close to everything. Watched the boats go in and out of the harbour. The accommodationstore were great with no issues at all. Great quite neighborhood. Enjoyed the pool and hot tub daily. Saw dolphins and a manatee right off the back yard. Would highly recommend for a family or just adults.
Travelled to Florida to bring together our extended families for a week in the Clearwater / Tarpon Springs area. Our party consisted of 4 adults and 3 teens and we had a very comfortable stay in terms of sleeping. My brother's family of 5 stayed elsewhere, but we were close enough to get together during the day or evenings for everyone to spend time in the house. Even with 6 adults, 3 teens, 2 kids and a baby, there was enough space in the living room/kitchen/patio area for everyone to hang out and not feel cramped together.
I'd never done anything like this before so I went over the reviews again and again. I was hoping for the best but fearing the worst. Fran was awesome to get back to me with answers to any questions and helped settle my mind. The week of the trip, everything went wonderfully. I was able to dismiss any complaints about cleanliness immediately.
We all enjoyed the pool and the area attractions. The house was clean, well furnished, and even better than described. Any small issues we had were quickly attended to. We didn't have the opportunity to use the canoe, but having that as an option is great! We never messed with the hot tub at all (Florida Summer) but the pool was fantastic!
Fran is very up front about house rules and expectations. I suggest reading and abiding by them - in particular, the schedule for trash pickup.
The sponge docks are fun but very aimed at tourists. The Greek pastry is fantastic and if I have one recommendation above any others - eat more pastry! Seriously, you'll miss it when you leave and you'll look back longingly :) Also, Sunset Beach is about a 10-minute drive. It has some of the clearest water I've ever seen and free parking as well (a rarity in Florida I came to learn).
We are hoping to have the opportunity for this to be a yearly thing for us. No regrets at all (other than that pastry thing)!
We brought our children and grandchildren to this lovely home / community over Memorial Day and had a fabulous time. We enjoyed the canoe, spa, pool and direct access to the water. It was a lovely place and quite close to the docks. Would definitely like to return sometime. Becky was just lovely making sure we had what we needed.
*NOTE!!* We took this vacation in early April 2015. I added this review too late to choose the right date above. REVIEW: We decided to escape the cold of Wis and head to Fla for Spring Break. We didn't schedule it with a lot of time left before spring break arrived. Beckie was the first to respond and worked with me right away to set up what times were available. Beckie was amazing to work with and the home and property were just gorgeous!!! We arrived and the property care taker was waiting for us to walk us through the house. Fantastic service! We had everything we could have hoped for in the house. The pool and hot tub were super clean and were so enjoyable to use. Being right on the water was awesome as we got to watch the boats head out to the Gulf, we took the canoe out, and just sat and relaxed on the patio to enjoy the view. The cherry on top of the vacation was the close proximity to the Belle Harbour Marina. We rented a pontoon boat for half a day (mention the Mason's and they price things just right!!) and headed out into the Gulf. That was so much fun to do. We saw dolphins on our way out as they were feeding and we stopped at the Anclote Key Preserve State Park on the island which was a blast. I can't say enough good things about this home, location, and owners!! We will be reserving it for our 2017 Spring Break and I recommend anyone thinking about heading to Fla to do the same. You will not regret it!!
This was our second stay at this home. It is comfortable and clean, and the pool and outdoor dining area made for many relaxing days for our family. Very close to many fun restaurants and the sponge docks of Tarpon Springs. We would highly recommend the home - thank you Becky!
I have stayed in different rental properties in Florida on 8 different occasions some homes some investment properties and believe in giving an honest review so here goes. This is a 3 bedroom villa with a futon bunk on the landing which was not explained. There is a fabric screen door but the window has no glass, shutters or curtains and is above the living area so all the noise and sunlight travels straight in there. None of our children wanted to sleep here so we had to forgo the room with the balcony and slept in the master down stairs. This was not ideal as the children were upstairs and we were down stairs.
The house is in a truly beautiful location but the marina over the way starts work at sunrise so it can get a bit noisy.
The first night my husband and I got bit all over, we found a 3 inche hole in the window screen in the morning! The sheets are polyester so I recommend taking your own as heat and polyester don't mix. The ceiling fans are the quietest I have ever used and you can sleep with them on. The air con is efficient but extreamly noisy upstairs if I had slept up there it would have drove me mad. The timer shuts the air con off from 10pm I think but we sleep and rise early.
The pool was a brilliant size and we really liked the freedom of not having the screen. The pool Hoover wasn't working when we arrived and the net broke from sun damage when we tried to use it. Considering the pool man comes on the day we arrived this seemed a bit strange. Fran was straight on it the next morning (a real credit to the owners, friendly and nothing is to much trouble). The pool level was low which meant leaving the hose to run but I sadly forgot to turn it off when my husband took it out of the pool. The pool man found it and we got told off. We really did not like having to leave the pool Hoover in when the pool was in use and have never been anywhere with this policy before. The children found it creepy and my ten year old got caught in the piping when he was training, it is about 6 meters in length and sometimes coils on its self.
We never used the outside dinning as the neighbors cat sleeps on the chairs and the cushions are left out. We did inform the owners of this on our first morning. Despite them being covered in hair and dirt (I think the cat had taken residence some weeks ago) no attempt by the owners to clean or replace them was made. The table still had ring marks among the cat hair from previous residence which totally put me off as thi

End entity certificates chained to an intermediate certificate represent the highest possible security solution for Certification Authorities and therefore their customers. There exists a very small possibility, consistent amongst all certification authorities, that the certificate used to sign end entity certificates could be compromised. The signing process itself mandates that the signing certificate must be accessible in order to perform the signing operation. In the case of an intermediate certificate, the corresponding root certificate is secured/locked away, eliminating the possibility of it being compromised by daily signing processes. End entity certificates directly signed by root certificates (i.e. no intermediate protection) provide no recourse should the root certificate itself become compromised. If an Intermediate were to be compromised then new intermediates could be created and new end entity certificates could be issued.
Once a root itself is compromised there is no solution or replacement strategy. It is therefore considered industry best practice to use intermediate certificates.
Intermediates also help by constraining the size of the Certificate Revocation List (CRL) associated with a certificate product. By periodically rolling over the intermediate CA that signs the end entity certificates CRL's are kept to a minimum. Maintaining optimal CRL sizes ensures that customers have a smooth and seamless experience visiting Secure Sockets Layer(SSL)-secured websites while full security is maintained transparently to customers/end users.
All the popular web servers' support chained certificates and have done so for quite some time.
For IIS. Both Microsoft IIS 5.0 and IIS 6.0 are fully PKCS#7 compliant whereby they will automatically parse the certificate extract the new intermediate and install it in the appropriate certificate store. (Root certificates are also installed if previously removed from the server)
For Apache. Major CAs will deliver a 'bundled' file containing the complete certificate chain providing a single installation method for the certificate.

The Farm and Fun Time radio program, which was instrumental in bluegrass beginnings, now has recognition in downtown Bristol, on the Tennessee/Virginia state line. The thoroughfare previously known as Winston Alley has now been renamed as Farm and Fun Time Alley.
WCYB's radio show Farm & Fun Time was an important radio show in the history of early bluegrass music. The station featured many of the finest bluegrass and old-time artists of the period. The show had a loyal audience base in Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky and West Virginia. It was a highly influential part of the lives of many people from the region, some going on to become major bluegrass artists themselves.
The fledgling Lester Flatt, Earl Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys group found a niche on the program.
Broadcast live from a studio in the General Shelby Hotel, the program helped to establish the careers of other legendary bluegrass performers, including the Osborne Brothers, Jim and Jesse McReynolds, Mac Wiseman, Carl Story, The Sauceman Brothers, and Curly King & Tennessee Hilltoppers, as well as the brother duet act, the Blue Sky Boys.
Farm & Fun Time had a clear channel, a strong 10,000 watts signal, and the show received letters from listeners in five states. Begun as a 30-minute program, the show expanded to 90 minutes as more and more bands came to play.

My remote is not working. I removed the batteries and put them back in to try to reboot the remote without luck. I also have tried fresh batteries. All I get is the cable light (on the remote) blinks twice and then the TV light starts blinking without stopping. I really don't want to go to the Comcast office to exchange it. This is becoming an every-four-months occurrence.
so every four months your remote goes bad? that makes no sense, I have had mine for 10 years no problem. what remote is it. you have to take the batteries out for a few hours to let the remote reset.
click this link to read how to reset the remote. This is a simple google search on your issue.
I had the exact same symptoms you did last night and I tried everything to fix it. Then I noticed a stuck up arrow key. It was stuck under the metal ever so slightly I had a hard time seeing it. I freed up the key and it started working like a champ. Try closely checking your remote for a slightly stuck key. I hope this helps you.
Thanks for the information. The remote is the silver one with the grey OK/Select button. I had the batteries out overnight and had no luck with it rebooting. I also tried the reset in the link you sent me and I wasn't able to get to the point where pressing the setup key had any effect. Again, thanks for the tips.
Thanks for the troubleshooting tip. None of the buttons seemed to be stuck. I went through all the buttons with the batteries out and all of them seemed to be working normally. I guess I'll stop by Comcast today to exchange it.
I had the same issue and discovered one of the keypad buttons stuck just a little bit under the remote cover. The way the remote "thinks", that button is constantly being pressed, which is why the Cable light stays on. Once I freed the stuck button, everything returned to normal.

This review is from: CHIMEI CMV 937A Silver-Black 19" 8ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 330 cd/m2 600:1
Looks great both image and style wise.
It won't stay on!! I purchased mine from a major OEM and since it comes on and goes off randomly an RMA may or may not solve the issue. I am guessing I get the same one back that I send in.
Other Thoughts:
As the other poster said, it will suddenly go "poof". No front LED, no picture, no nothing. It may come on 10 seconds later of 3 hours later.

Manchester United
Main sponsor: AIG (Insurance)
Cost per annum: £14.125m
Kit supplier: Nike
The AIG deal is worth £56.5m over four years, Nike paid the club £303m for licensing rights, and Budweiser is the club's official beer. Still no word on why former Saatchi & Saatchi CEO Lee Daley, lasted only four months as commercial director last year.
Main sponsor: Samsung (Electronics)
Cost per annum: £10m
Kit supplier: Adidas
Football sponsorship is a key battleground in the ultra competitive consumer electronics market. South Korean giant Samsung grabbed the Chelsea shirt after they lost out to Sony for Uefa Champions League and Fifa World Cup rights. As an IOC partner Samsung also sponsored the Olympic torch relay around the world, escorted by the controversial men in blue suits.
Main sponsor: Carlsberg (Brewing)
Cost per annum: £7m
Kit supplier: Adidas
Carlsberg's 15-year commitment is the longest commercial relationship in British football, but the club may seek a shirt and naming rights deal to fund their long-awaited new stadium, which may test the brewers resolve. Last year, striker Fernando Torres sold more shirts than any player in the Premier League, not including those carrying his own El Niño brand.
Newcastle United
Main sponsor: Northern Rock (Finance)
Cost per annum: £5m
Kit supplier: Adidas
The nationalisation of Northern Rock means Kevin Keegan's team is partly funded by the taxpayer despite being owned by billionaire retailer Mike Ashley. Calls to end the relationship have fallen on deaf ears: "I believe it is in the commercial interest of the bank that we should continue," said N. Rock.
Main sponsor: Emirates (Airline)
Cost per annum: £5m
Kit supplier: Nike
Arsene Wenger has transformed "boring Arsenal" into one of the most aspirational brands in football, but his antipathy to summer tours means the club won't be "taking the live experience" to America or the Far East soon, despite the chance of free Emirates flights. Back home, the Emirates stadium has become a London landmark.
Tottenham Hotspur
Main sponsor: Mansion.com (Casino and Poker)
Cost per annum: £5m
Kit supplier: Puma
Spurs were the second choice for Mansion, which came close to a deal with Manchester United. The sponsor accused United of "double-dealing", while the club said concerns over the gambling and casino link turned them off.
Aston Villa
Main sponsor: Acorns (Children's Hospice)
Cost per annum: Free
Kit supplier: Nike
Randy Lerner, Villa's American owner, has taken a leaf out of Barcelona's tie-up with Unicef, Villa gave their shirt free to a local children's hospice, costing the club around £5m a year in revenue.
Main sponsor: Chang (Brewing)
Cost per annum: £2.6m
Kit supplier: Umbro
Chang is part of the ThaiBev brewing giant and the deal is testimony to the Premier League's international TV reach. Alcohol sponsorship of sport is set to come under renewed pressure as the government acts on binge drinking – acting on advice from the Portman Group, the brand has chosen to remove its logo from children's shirts.
Manchester City
Main sponsor: Thomas Cook
Cost per annum: £1m
Kit supplier: Le Coq Sportif
No Ronaldinho to sell the City shirt as the Brazilian star chose Milan, and fans and sponsors will take little consolation that his new club played in the Thomas Cook Cup, a pre-season tournament. Thomas Cook is into its sixth year as sponsor – and fans are four times as likely to book holidays with the firm.
Hull City
Main sponsor: Karoo (Internet Service Provider)
Cost per annum: £800,000
Kit supplier: Umbro
The newly promoted club hopes this year's shirt will fare better than a previous Tiger skin incarnation, which was voted worst ever football kit in a poll of readers of The Sun. Karoo is a local ISP owned by Kingston Communications, which is the monopoly web supplier for Hull.
Blackburn Rovers
Main sponsor: Crown Paints
Cost per annum: £1.5m
Kit supplier: Umbro
Manufacturing problems at Umbro's factory unfortunately meant the launch of the new shirt was delayed and the club took a hit in all important pre-season shirt sales. After an absence of over a decade, the Crown Paints logo comes back into football. The local brand was one of the first shirt sponsors and is synonymous with Liverpool in the Kenny Dalglish era.
West Ham United
Main sponsor: XL Holidays
Cost per annum: £1m
Kit supplier: Umbro
There are two views of the new away kit. The official line is that it recalls Hammers heroes such as Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters. Some fans see it differently: "It's a rip off of that crappy Seventies England shirt," wrote one blogger, "must've taken them about 10 minutes to think that one up, thanks for nothing!"
Wigan Athletic
Main sponsor: JJB (Retailer)
Cost per annum: £1m
Kit supplier: Champion
Wigan chairman and JJB Sports founder Dave Whelan dropped Umbro in favour of Champion when Umbro were hit by England's failure to qualify for Euro 2008. Umbro was bought by Nike, which paid £285m to consolidate its position against arch-rivals adidas. The white England shirt is still the best-selling replica kit worldwide and Umbro's deal with the FA is due to run to 2014.
Main sponsor: OKI (Printers)
Cost per annum: £800,000
Kit supplier: Canterbury
Last year's FA Cup win gave Japanese printer manufacturer OKI some welcome additional worldwide exposure. The club is supporting the OKI Street Arts Community initiative, encouraging school-aged children to get involved in the arts, and the company's PR agency Whiteoaks has been pushing the OKI Street Sixes, a youth football league, part of a Hampshire-based drive to reduce street crime.
West Bromwich Albion
Main sponsor: None. Played pre-season in last year's T-Mobile shirt
Cost per annum: Not applicable
Kit supplier: Umbro
The Premier League's rules ensure an even share of television coverage over the year. Despite this, the club will become the first since the Premier League began in 1992 to start without a sponsor. Supporters can weld one on when a sponsor is found, says a hopeful press release.
Main sponsor: Boylesports
Cost per annum: £2.5m
Kit supplier: Umbro
Boylesports, one of Ireland's biggest bookies, is the latest Irish link to Wearside. Manager Roy Keane and chairman Niall Quinn front a club owned by the Drumaville Consortium, a collection of Dublin businessmen, "It's the biggest thing since Jack Charlton and Italia 90," says investor Charlie Chawke. Aer Lingus and Ryanair agree, reporting increased traffic from Dublin and Cork to the north-east.
Main sponsor: Garmin SatNav
Cost per annum: £1m
Kit supplier: Errea
Lazy players will be found out this year as Garmin supply Boro coaches with GPS-enabled Forerunners that measure the squad's heart rate, speed and the distance covered during training. Fans can view the data online during the season. The team bus driver will also be under pressure to get the team to away games on time as the sponsor has equipped the coach with the company's core SatNav product.
Main sponsor: LG (Electronics)
Cost per annum: £3m
Kit supplier: Nike
No one can say Mohamed Al Fayed lacks imagination when it comes to negotiating with sponsors. Bundled in to LG's deal is floor space at Mr Al Fayed-owned Harrods and the roof of Craven Cottage, which is positioned under the Heathrow flight path. The sponsor says that nothing should be read into the fact that the entire senior marketing team left the company shortly after the deal was signed.
Stoke City
Main sponsor: Britannia (Building Society)
Cost per annum: £1m
Kit supplier: Le Coq Sportif
The credit crunch era is no bad time to promote the benefits of saving, so Britannia support their involvement by some neat activation, donating substantial sums to the club via its Save & Support initiative. Stoke are tipped for relegation, but the Staffordshire-based building society has been sponsoring the club for 11 years and holds the naming rights to the stadium.
Bolton Wanderers
Main sponsor: Reebok (Sportswear manufacturer)
Cost per annum: £1.2m
Kit supplier: Reebok
The Reebok Stadium was one of the first British naming rights agreements, signed in 1997 and recently renewed until 2016, and a blueprint for Arsenal's deal with Emirates. Sponsor and club work closer than most – Reebok's UK head office is in the north stand of the ground.

Achieving bone union can be difficult in all aspects of orthopaedics including spine, trauma, and upper extremity surgery. Failure to achieve bone union results in multiple additional surgeries, significant morbidity, and ultimately can lead to loss of extremity function or amputation. To overcome the limitations in current orthopaedic practice, researchers are using tissue engineering techniques. By combining biodegradable scaffolds with bone inducing factors such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and demineralized bone matrix, missing bone tissue in segmental defects or non-unions can be healed. BMP-2, though potent in promoting bone regeneration, can lead to heterotopic bone formation which may require additional surgery. Therefore, there is a great need for new candidate molecules that might provide treatment results equivalent to or better than now achieved. Recently we found that thrombopoietin [TPO, the main megakaryocyte (MK) growth factor] could heal critical size mouse femoral defects as well as, if not better than, BMP-2. We hypothesize that TPO accelerates bone healing by two important mechanisms. First, TPO increases MK numbers which in turn enhance OB proliferation, increases bone formation, and accelerates periosteal bridging. Second, TPO more rapidly restores bone contour at the fracture site by binding to c-mpl on osteoclast (OC) progenitors, increasing osteoclastogenesis, and subsequently coupled remodeling. Therefore, in Aim 1, we will establish how TPO impacts bone regeneration in a mouse critical size defect model.
In Aim 2, we will dissect the mechanisms by which TPO enhances OB number.
In Aim 3, we will determine the mechanisms by which TPO enhances OC number and function. Successful completion of these studies will demonstrate the utility of using TPO to enhance bone healing under difficult conditions such as large segmental defects and nonunion. Further, these studies will begin to provide us with the mechanisms underlying the success of TPO in bone healing. Understanding these mechanisms may provide insight into alternative treatment strategies for bone healing as well as systemic bone loss such as that seen in osteoporosis.
Healing large defects in bone is difficult in many cases. We have found that a novel protein, thrombopoietin, can enhance bone healing in mice and eventually hope to bring this to the clinic for use by orthopaedic surgeons.

All day the noise and commotion drove me to distraction -- and it had been a fairly quiet day.
I was alone in the pod I share with two other reporters and my phone only rang once.
You would think the quiet would be conducive to a productive day, but I could barely put two sentences together because of the noise and commotion coming from within, my whirlwind thoughts stirring up fears and anxieties I thought I had put to rest.

I have a credibility problem. The medical profession has an axiom which advises, "When you hear hoof beats look for horses, not zebras." In other words, look for the most likely explanation and not the unordinary. In my case when I hear hoof beats I think of unicorns! Once an idea is in my head, no matter how unlikely, it captures my imagination and reduces me to a novelty.
Over 3000 vehicle-deer collisions occur each year in Kentucky, and autumn is the peak season. According to the Kentucky State Police, almost half of all such collisions occur in October, November and December. November is the peak month by far, averaging around 750 collisions annually. Three people were killed in each of the past two years.

"Chuck's" Ryan McPartlin knows that it takes a real man to admit to liking girly drinks.
The actor, who returns as Devon "Captain Awesome" Woodcomb on the spy comedy on Monday, Jan. 17, subjects himself to Zap2it's Celeb Slam Book, beginning with whether or not he's graduated from his girly drink guilty pleasure that he admitted to at Comic-Con.
"Aw, man, here we go. Yeah no I haven't," he tells Zap2it with a laugh. "I like my Cosmos once in a while, but if you put an Appletini in front of me, I won't say no. The thing is I can get into just about anything. It depends on what everyone's doing around me too. I'm a very social butterfly."
McPartlin also opens up about his first celebrity crush (Hint: She set young boys' hearts aflutter on "Who's the Boss?"), a movie that makes him cry without fail and the ambitious shoes he'd like to fill for one day.
We present to you Ryan McPartlin's Celeb Slam Book:
1) Can you tell us about your first kiss?
I think it was on the dance floor in 7th grade. In a public place, I made a big show out of it. I let my friends know I was going to do it and I planted it on her for a couple giggles and chuckles. I think I was even wearing braces. It wasn't the sexiest thing. What are you going to do?
2) What food can you not resist?
I have a list of things I have to eat when I'm in Chicago. Portillo's hot dogs, cheeseburgers. I probably switched from Lou Malnati's, but anyway a Chicago-style deep dish pizza from Lou Malnati's or Giordano's. That probably does it right there. Hot dogs, hamburgers and pizza. It couldn't get worst for you.
3) Is there a star out there you'd like to be a personal trainer for?
It would probably be somebody where I could really make a difference. I would have loved to have been, like, Chris Farley's personal trainer. I'm a little bit optimistic and spiritual in that way, but if I was a personal trainer I wouldn't necessarily want to take someone who's already in fantastic shape. I would want to take someone who has serious issues. I think Captain Awesome would do the same thing. The coach part of me too, to take on a real challenge.
4) What is your worst trait or habit?
I like coffee, I like my Happy Hours and I like beer on the weekends. I watch football with beer, but that's not too bad.
5) What's your deepest fear?
Not being there when my kids need me. That would be the closest to a deep fear.
6) Movie that makes you cry?
I think I'd go with "Planes, Trains and Automobiles." My favorite. Love John Candy.
7) Who was your first celebrity crush?
Alyssa Milano. I've never met her out here [in Hollywood] actually, but that would be very strange to be like, "Oh hey, I had a picture of you in my locker in seventh grade when I had my first kiss with my braces on. I might have been picturing you, Alyssa. So nice to meet you."
8) What's a show or cartoon you don't mind watching with your kids?
"Little Einsteins." I don't mind listening to their music. I like "Baby Einstein" better before the kids were talking though when it was just classical music. It was great.
9) If you could be invisible, tell us a naughty thing you would do.
I'd love to be on the set of a Jim Carrey movie and just watch him in action the whole time. That's not so naughty, but all the actors I really admire, I'd love to go on the sets and not have anyone know I'm there and just watch them in between takes and how they are in real life and watch their process as actors as well.
10) If you could trade lives with someone for one day, who would it be?
I'd probably have to say [Barack] Obama as crazy as that sounds. I visited the West Wing while Bush was still in office and it was just amazing to me. I see why a lot of actors become infatuated with politics because lives are really at stake. It's a whole differnt ballgame when you're at that level. So I'd probably do that for one day and try and see what it really is like to be in his shoes.

The Associated Press
A 17-year-old honor student from Westmoreland County has entered the equivalent of a guilty plea to four felony charges in juvenile court for using a computer virus to crash a Sony Entertainment Corp. gaming website.
The charges grew out of a federal grand jury investigation in San Diego, but authorities agreed to let the charges be handled by Westmoreland County Juvenile Court because of the boy's age.
Police say the boy used his computer skills to cripple Sony's PlayStation site for 11 days in November 2008 after he was barred from it for cheating while playing a war game against others online.
The boy is living with his parents and attends Greater Latrobe Senior High School. He'll be sentenced at an undetermined date.

England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff hopes to make his return following ankle surgery in Sunday's one-day friendly against Sri Lanka A at Liverpool.
Flintoff has been due to feature for Lancashire's Second XI in their three-day match against Derbyshire at Blackpool, but heavy rain forced the game to be called off without a ball being bowled on Wednesday.
Lancashire's side for the match against Sri Lanka A also includes Flintoff's fellow England pace bowler Sajid Mahmood and Australia batsman Brad Hodge.
The 29-year-old Flintoff missed both the Test and one-day series against the West Indies after his operation, his third on his left ankle, but hopes to fit in time for England's one-day matches against India which begin next month.
England's second of three Tests against India was due to start in Nottingham on Friday.

Madewood Plantation House, a 75 millas al noroeste del Barrio Francés de Nueva Orleans (65 millas desde el aeropuerto NO), es un refugio lleno de gracia, donde la vida se ralentiza. Esta National Historic Landmark mansión del renacimiento griego, llamado el "templo de los campos de caña de azúcar," se asienta sobre 20 hectáreas, con robles en expansión. Sus ocho habitaciones grandes camas con dosel y antigüedades, pero el ambiente es más acogedor que formal. Elija una noche con todo incluido o visitar los restaurantes locales para una experiencia variada. Los clientes que eligen el paquete de todo incluido se reúnen para el vino y el queso antes de sentarse juntos durante una cena con velas de especialidades del sur de Louisiana. Después, el café se sirve en el salón. Madewood ha aparecido en Travel and Leisure y Conde Nast Traveler. Tours, alojamiento durante la noche y los eventos son availalble con sólo reservas.

A former plantation house as a bed and breakfast. We stayed one night. After a cheese and wine reception with the owner followed a 3 course meal. Because of no other guest we had the house for us during the night. It was a great experience to live like a plantation house owner for one night.
5 en agosto 21, 2016
We happened to be the only guests during our night at Madewood (august is the hot period), and we had a great time enjoying the house for ourselves! Food was delicious, people very kind and helpful.

Our anniversary weekend was incredible! We really enjoyed the quite, relaxed atmosphere. Actually staying in the home was quite an experience. The staff was very pleasant. The food was possibly the best we have ever had.

My daughter and I stayed here last year for four days and came back this year for an entire week! Our room was gorgeous, we slept in a half tester antique bed. The service there is excellent and whatever they are paying Angie isn't enough because she goes way above and beyond! We went this year to celebrate my daughters high school graduation and she had the choice to choose anywhere and she chose Madewood because of our previous wonderful visit last year. Angie not only made a cake for my daughter but she actually called the school (in Missouri) so she could decorate it with her school colors, all a wonderful surprise for us! She also took her personal time to show us a very secret spot :) Our room was extremely spacious, the food was absolutely delicious and you honestly feel as comfortable as home. Any visit to Louisiana will always have Madewood as our home base!!

This place has the potential to be one of the best B & B's in the south. Some upgrades are definitely needed and it could smell a lot better but it was a great experience. I would love to have a home like this. I felt as if I literally stepped back in time. A porch swing and some sweet tea would have made my visit ideal. The dining experience was very authentic. Angie did a fabulous job. Eating by candlelight is something that everyone should do, even if it's in their own home. There was a southern ease about it that made me not want to get up from the table. The only critics I have are that it could have smelled better and it could have been cleaner. The bed skirts and carpets were rather dirty and I understand that the place is quite old, but there's no reason for the smell. The air conditioner was not sufficient and made this Yankee Gal quite uncomfortable. The outside of the house was riddled with cobwebs and mud-wasp nests... not exactly ideal for visitors. Like I said, the place has all the potential to be spectacular and I hope they're able to accomplish that because it truly is a gem!
Respuesta del propietario
We are delighted that this writer had such a lovely visit to Madewood and wish she'd requested some sweet tea, as we would have been delighted to provide it. Because of the historic character of the mansion, we can't offer porch swings; but we do have two swings -- one used by singer Beyonce in a recent filming -- hanging from oak trees on the property. Guests love to have their picture taken on that one! We actually feel that for 33 years Madewood has been one of the best B&Bs in the South. We've certainly learned a lot over three decades and have tried to incorporate guests' suggestions to make the Madewood experience even better. We're not sure exactly how a 170-year-old National Historic Landmark should smell; but when the writer mentioned this, we immediately switched her to another room and heard no further comments. Nothing was said about the air conditioning. Sometimes guests inadvertently select energy saving mode when they really want full speed ahead; but we must be advised of any problem in order to correct it. We checked the dust ruffle in the bedroom and discovered a small coffee stain that had gone unnoticed. Unfortunately, in spring and summer, it's almost impossible to keep up with mud-dauber nests, which seem to pop up outside overnight. Despite our best efforts, spiders may choose to spin their webs on porches; Madewood is in the countryside, and they just sneak up on you. Part of the difficulty in maintaining everything in tip-top-shape is keeping up with damage caused by guests. In this party of three couples, one gentleman could not take the time to call the three cell-phone numbers listed when they returned after dark and found the rear door locked. One of the original glass sidelights at the rear entrance was shattered by heavy blows that alarmed guests in a nearby ground-floor bedroom. Just knocking on the wooden door or frame to alert someone inside would have sufficed. We hope to replace it with original wavy glass to protect Madewood's reputation as one of the best, and most historically-significant B&Bs in the South. Respectfully submitted, Keith Marshall Proprietor

Overtall a good experience. Great house, beautiful furniture, excellent dinner. However the cleanliness of the room is questionable, especially around the toilet, dust on the shades, etc. The electrical installation is outdated: impossible to put the light on (string broken), safety is questionable. Breakfast is too heavy for European stomaches. Excellent welcome and service quality.

Angie is a very nice house keeper. The house is like a museum-plantation. It's very quiet and with many charms: decoration, furniture. The dinner and the breakfast at the large table shared by all the guests wee really nice. A little bit pricey. The only problem has been the difficulty to find the house since there are two parallel roads along the river. The house is on road 308, not on road 1. This is correctly indicated on the map.
5 en abril 04, 2016
Everything was perfect, and Angie was the perfect hostess and Alice the perfect chef when my girlfriend and I were there. I love Madewood and the whole experience of staying there. Angie went out of her way to make a very special treat for me that my fiancé arranged with her from afar. Can't wait to go back.
