Howard homers in Phillies 4-1 win in St. Louis

Howard homers in Phillies 4-1 win in St. Louis
ST. LOUIS -- Ryan Howard plays 81 home games a year, but the Philadelphia first baseman really makes himself at home in his native St. Louis.
In another successful homecoming, Howard homered for the 10th time in 27 regular season games at Busch Stadium and drove in three runs Thursday night as the Phillies kept up their best stretch of the year with a 4-1 win over St. Louis.
Howard lofted a two-run homer just over the left-field wall and just to the right of the foul pole off Shelby Miller with one out in the top of the sixth, giving the Phillies (33-38) a 4-0 lead. It was Howard's 14th homer of the year.
Howard, who started the night's scoring with an RBI single in the fourth, went 2-for-4, upping his career average at Busch to .374 with 38 RBIs.
"It's always good to come back home and play in front of friends and family," he said. "You feed off the crowds here. I guess it's easier for me because I'm back home."
With Howard's big bat backing him up, rookie right-hander David Buchanan (3-3) authored his best start since coming up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley May 24.
Buchanan entered the game with a fat 5.97 ERA, but stifled the Cardinals (39-34) on four hits over 7 2/3 innings, walking one and striking out four. Buchanan lost his shutout in the bottom of the eighth when third baseman Matt Carpenter laced a single to right that scored shortstop Jhonny Peralta.
"He was down in the zone and he had two fastballs working," Philadelphia manager Ryne Sandberg said. "He had the cutter and the two-seamer both working to both sides of the plate. When he had to make a pitch, it was a quality pitch."
Buchanan had one truly stressful moment in the second inning, giving up consecutive one-out singles to first baseman Matt Adams and catcher Yadier Molina that put runners on the corners.
But Buchanan whiffed Peralta with a high 2-2 fastball and got a lineout from second baseman Kolten Wong. That started a run where Buchanan retired 17 of 18 batters, yielding only a leadoff double to Miller in the sixth.
With the sellout crowd of 42,106 hoping for a comeback, Buchanan got his next three outs on five pitches.
"I've been trying to work on dodging the big inning," Buchanan said. "I kept some balls down and there were plays made behind me. I wanted to go deep into this game and help the bullpen out."
Closer Jonathan Papelbon pitched a clean ninth inning for his 17th save as the Phillies won for the eighth time in 10 games and notched their first four-game winning streak since taking five straight from June 2-6, 2013.
"It's hard to believe it's been that long," Howard said. "I hope it doesn't take that long for the next one."
Meanwhile, St. Louis lost its second straight after a season-high five-game winning streak and fell 4 1/2 games behind Milwaukee, a 4-1 winner at Arizona, in the National League Central.
Miller (7-6) pitched 6 2/3 innings, allowing seven hits and four runs while walking three and fanning four.
"Up and down," Miller said of his effort. "I thought I did a good job staying ahead of the hitters for the most part and got deep into the game, but I didn't make the best pitches at some points. I left some balls over the middle of the plate."
NOTES: St. Louis decided to skip the turn of RHP Michael Wacha in the rotation, meaning RHP Carlos Martinez will take his second start of the week on Sunday. The Cardinals are skipping Wacha for rest, not injury reasons. ... Philadelphia recalled C Cameron Rupp from Triple-A Lehigh Valley and sent down OF Aaron Altherr to Double-A Reading to make room for Rupp. Backup C Wil Nieves felt a pop in his right quadriceps running out a double Wednesday in Atlanta, and the Phillies want protection in case starter Carlos Ruiz goes down. ... Cardinals RHP Joe Kelly (hamstring) threw a bullpen session Thursday and plans to throw another one this weekend. If that goes well, Kelly could start a rehab assignment next week.

Which are the things you should be doing every day in order to improve your life?
If you want to improve your life, I'm pretty sure you're dissatisfied with it. But don't worry, I'm here to help you to come to a better, and more joyful and quality life, with advice as well as with ideas.
Believe it or not, almost every person on earth wants life improvement. It's nothing strange, because we all have our own goals, and everyone wants to achieve some of their dreams. That's why, the pursuit of life improvement is quite normal.
The problem of the story lies in the fact that few people know how to truly improve their life. There are several different solutions, but they can be divided into good and bad ones.
If you want to improve your life, the engagement of a life coach imposes as a good solution. Such people stand behind a multitude of realized improvements in the lives of their clients, thus, it will be very easy for them to find the right solution for you. Their satisfied customers have to be the proof of their quality. Be careful when selecting and choose a coach who is very successful in improving the lives of his/her clients.
I'd like to mention books that are related to an improvement in the spheres of life, as another good solution. Very often the solution is right in front of us, but we can not understand it. Books serve as a great tool that provides a new perspective on life and thus also provides new insights, which may lead you to a better quality of life.
Tips on the Internet that are often written by the quasi-experts can be a bad solution. Books are still a much better source because they are made by the experts. After all, it is essential that you take all the information with a grain of salt, and then decide what is good and what is not by yourself. As I already said, the books, the internet or professional journals shall only be a tool that will open your eyes completely.
I somehow got stuck in a profound darkness, that's what I don't like. So to simplify the whole story, what follows is a list of things that you have to practice every day in order to improve your life.
Spend more time with your family and friends
I recently watched a super TED video which talks about the actual importance of social connections between people.
Experts have been conducting research for nearly a century, and after profound analysis, they have noted that lonely people are much more prone to various diseases, unhappy life and an early death. Therefore, the thesis on how being surrounded by the people you love is the most important thing in life imposes as a key conclusion.
I said, 'surrounded', but I will have to deny what I said. Being surrounded by people doesn't necessarily mean not being lonely. It is important to be part of this community, to talk, socialize and ultimately feel a connection with the people who surround you.
Nowadays, our priorities are often related to job, career, success, while we should in fact focus on some other (more important) things. When you think about it, you'll spend the best years of your life chasing a career. Are you going to be proud of the fact that you were a successful careerist, but a very bad friend at the end of your lifetime? Certainly not, because what's really worth are the moments we remember and which have been spent with our loved ones.
It is necessary to find a balance, but at the moment I'm pretty sure that this balance doesn't exist in your case. If that were the case, you wouldn't be engaged in reading this paragraph.
What's important, if you want to improve your life you need to start spending more time with people. Be a part of the community, and never a mere observer. Invest more time in building friendly relations and I am convinced that your life will become a lot better. And, be sure to see the video I've listed above.
Increase your physical activity
This is one of the things to do everyday, you shouldn't skip. The old saying goes, 'healthy body, healthy mind' and that's not far from the truth.
Exercise, even though it seems hard, and a big consumer of our energy, it actually isn't. In fact, it has quite a counter effect. By doing exercise, we don't only strengthens the body but also our mind-set that becomes aware of its possibilities.
Exercise makes us push beyond our limits. Sometimes we aren't even aware of how powerful we are, until we taste the adrenaline that makes us move a step forward, a second faster, a meter further.
Nowadays, it's not a problem to start exercising properly. Thanks to many experts, coaches and quality sites, the knowledge is at a hand reach. All that separates you from improving your life is that little mega important step: Just start!
I'm not sure if you know this, but there are many ways to make exercise fun and short. The myth of several hours of sitting and weightlifting at the gym is the thing of the past, because there are many other proven ways in which you can make exercise more effective.
The Zenhabits team made an effort to write several important facts on how to make physical activity more effective. Do not forget, it is the quality of the physical activity that matters, not the quantity.
Quality and sufficient rest
If you want to improve your life, you have to embrace the fact that you need to improve the quality of your sleep. If you have ever wondered what do you do all day, then you must have come to a conclusion how you spend one-third of your day sleeping.
You can improve your life dramatically, if you improve the quality of your sleep. Let's not fool ourselves, sleep is extremely important. Sleep gives us the energy and allows us to use our day better.
Do you know that there are several different stages of sleep?
Most people in the world practice mono sleep, in other words a single stage sleep. However, there are more and more enthusiasts who are testing new ways of sleep that are scientifically proven.
For example, there is a sleep mode, in which the optimal time spent on rest is just two hours in a day. Isn't that amazing?
The team on Dreams.co.uk has dealt with the phenomenon of sleep, and they have prepared some great infographic for you. I still haven't obtained the right to publish this infographic on my site, but I hope that I soon will. Until then, be sure to check out this link and find out how you can sleep more efficiently.
Laughter is the cure
I have to admit, I really resent myself for laughing so little. Although I may be above the average, I still tend to believe that it is not enough.
I passed by a kindergarten today, and a beautiful sunny day invited the kids to the playground. I heard laughter, a bunch of laughter. I Immediately got goosebumps, and I felt joy. Maybe I'm crazy, maybe I'm not, but it has been scientifically proven that laughter is healthy.
Great advantages possessed by the people who laugh a lot are:
- Laughing reduces the stress hormone
- It reduces blood pressure
- It causes the activation of different muscles in our body
- It reduces the feeling of pain
- It improves the level of immunity to a certain disease
Not to go any further with the benefits, feel free to hurry up to Gaiam Life and read a great article about the benefits that laughter has on your body and mood.
Many agree that laughter is the best cure for everything. Now let me ask you honestly, when was the last time you really had a good laugh? Was it today, yesterday, last week? Unfortunately, the answer of many will not be very positive.
We need to laugh more often. It is healthy for us, for our friends and our whole environment. Is it so hard to invest time in something that requires a minimum of effort, and gives so much in return? Of course not.
The human touch that means so much
If I'm not mistaken, January 21, is the International Hug Day. The day in which the hugging propaganda spreads in all directions, and in all the media. But what about the other days of the year? Isn't it true that they also deserve to be hug days for you, me, or someone else?
Psychologists agree, five to six hugs a day will make your life more beautiful and you will live longer. So, hugging has a very positive impact if you want to improve your life. In the early days of the last century Virginia Satir already came out with the theory that man needs:
- 4 hugs to make it through the day
- 8 hugs to maintain the joy of life
- 12 hugs for an improvement and an advancement in life
After her, many psychologists agreed that actually these 8 hugs represent some magical limit. Masters in hugging are certainly children who continuously strive to hugs. Well, why wouldn't we adults hug too?
I think it isn't necessary to mention that one of the biggest advantages of hugging is a sense of belonging. As I've mentioned before in the text, the loneliness is one of the biggest problems in our lives. Therefore, a hug is emerging as the perfect solution that leads to life improvement.
I must have woken up your interest with the information provided. If you want to find out additional facts about the benefits of hugging, be sure to check out a quality article on the portal MindBodyGreen.
Eat healthier
A few days ago, I've started my own project in which I'm going to show people how good nutrition is one of the steps that lead to a successful life. This may now seem absurd to you, but believe me, the food has a major influence on the mood in our everyday life.
I found an interesting experiment on the Internet, which was conducted a long time ago, and it is partly related to food.
The Marshmallow Experiment is actually a kind of test that showed how the kids turned into business people. So, the kids were put in a room, and there was the question of who will succeed to resist a Marshmallow. It turned out that people obtain certain habits later in life, depending on the decision to eat or to postpone the eating of a Marshmallow. To find out who turned out to be more, and who less successful in later life, I recommend you to check out the Jamesclear.com
I came down the rails a bit with this experiment, so we should return to the key of the story – a healthy diet.
The past year has shown how for the first time in history we have more obese than underweight people in the world . Isn't that terrible? While most of us are engaged in overeating, children are dying of hunger on the other side of the planet. That's awful!
It is time you stop with the unhealthy habit of overeating. It is necessary to find balance in the diet, as well as in all other things in life.
The introduction of healthy ingredients and the reduction of the number of calories, could have a significantly positive effect on your life. Here I wish to mention energy, health and less fatigue as a side effect of the improved nutrition.
It might not be one of the key factors, but our menu has a great impact on the life improvement. Therefore, hurry up to some portal and find out everything you want to know about proper and healthy diet. Don't forget, you'll benefit from this change, as well as the rest of the world.
Be more considerate and more polite
I often remain shocked when I hear that the people who are only a few generations older than us are saying 'You' when addressing their parents. In the past older people had the respect of their children, who knew how to appreciate everything they were doing.
Nowadays the things are different. Is that enough reason to not say 'thank you' and 'your welcome'?
I think every person is delighted when he/she encounters a spokesman who knows how to use the words 'thank you' and 'your welcome'. It is not to be surprised, when that is a reflection of respect for someone. It indeed forms part of the manners we were taught at school or at home.
I somehow get the feeling that less and less people use manners. Frankly, I think this is as big a failure, as it degrades a sense of respect for someone.
If these words stop being used by me, you, and then by someone else, who will use them at all? This would led to a total lack of respect and consideration for everyone.
It's very important to show respect for others, because it encourages them and shows them you are a person worth of respect. On the other hand, respect is likely to be reciprocated. Surely you'll feel great when someone tells you 'thank you' or 'your welcome'.
Meditation of any kind
People often think meditation is some ritual in which they must stick to strict rules. You need to stop worrying about the rules, because the only important thing is to find time for yourself.
Meditation will certainly improve your life. Many successful people practice it, and therefore it can only do you good.
If we go around all the written and unwritten rules, meditation comes down to taking a break from life. It is necessary to stop for a while and soothe your life. So, a couple of deep breaths-exhalations, thinking about something nice and leaving all worries aside. This in few words is meditation.
You can find out more about the techniques and rules of meditation on an excellent website Goodlifezen.com. Particularly interesting is the article about important factors that make meditation successful. The article can be read here.
10 new ideas every day
After a man reads a lot of books and articles about successful businessmen on different sites, he can easily extract one key rule: "Write down 10 new ideas every day".
Many well-known entrepreneurs were putting their new ideas on paper every night. They did it as long as it took them to find the 'gold mine' that led them to the achievement of their dreams. Some have continued with the habit, so they still do it.
Whatever you come up with, you can always do more and better. Therefore, writing down the ideas, makes you think about them, and by doing that, your improving them. In parallel, your imagination will contribute to the new ideas. Your paper of ideas will be richer and richer every day, so you'll detect the 'gold mine' more easily.
I have to admit that this is one of the best tactics to improve your life. Try to focus on what's bothering you and then look for the ideas on how to improve that part of life. Don't ever give up, the first idea might seem stupid, but each subsequent should be getting better.
And so, I've come to an end of 'the things to do everyday in order to improve your life' list. In my opinion, the list contains exactly the most important factors that should make you wince from your current position.
Now, it's all up to you. It's time you wince, and start doing something better in your life. Every little thing that bothers you is a sign that you're not happy. At the same time, it is a sign that you've got to breathe a new fresh impulse into that part of your life. Just do it!
What do you think? What should we do in order to improve our life? Write your opinion in the comments.

Tom Sharpe, (Thomas Ridley Sharpe), English novelist (born March 30, 1928, London, Eng.—died June 6, 2013, Llafranc, Spain), crafted satiric novels dripping with dark and riotous humour. Sharpe was known for his bawdy style and for his ability to take the absurdities of everyday life to uproarious new heights with extravagant—albeit obnoxious—storylines. The most beloved of his 16 novels depicted the comic misfortune of the ill-fated college lecturer Henry Wilt. The commonplace character's outlandish predicaments began in the original book, Wilt (1976), and maintained their hilarity through four sequels and a feature film, The Misadventures of Mr. Wilt (1989). Sharpe's popular Porterhouse Blue (1974) and Blott on the Landscape (1975) were adapted for television in the 1980s. His childhood was influenced by Nazi ideology, as his father was a fascist and a strong admirer of Adolf Hitler. After viewing footage of death-camp liberations, however, Sharpe rejected Nazism. He studied social anthropology at Pembroke College, Cambridge, where he later served as a lecturer and gleaned inspiration for the Wilt series. In 1951 Sharpe moved to South Africa, where he witnessed racial injustice firsthand as a social worker in black townships and was imprisoned for writing the antiapartheid play The South Africans (1960). He was deported back to Britain in 1961, but his crusade against inequality continued. He mocked the apartheid regime in his debut novel, Riotous Assembly (1971), and followed suit with Indecent Exposure (1973). Ill health caused Sharpe to limit his output later in life, but he was working on an autobiography at the time of his death.

Queensland, known as the Sunshine State, is Australia's largest state on the East Coast and extends from Brisbane, the capital in the South to the Tropical North, to Cairns and Port Douglas. There is so much to see and it is warm all year round. Queensland is home to one of the Great Wonders of the World, the Great Barrier Reef, and the huge Daintree Rainforest, both full of colour, wildlife, are very untouched and are naturally beautiful.
Ideally, base yourself in the North in Port Douglas, just 45 mins north of Cairns and explore the reef and rainforest, vast countryside, and long sandy beaches, which you can often have to yourselves! You can also hop over to the Whitsundays, perhaps to Hamilton Island, to sail and enjoy Whitehaven beach, 6km of white sandy beach, rivalled as one of the best beaches in the world.
In the south, enjoy Noosa, its surf beaches and cafe culture. There is such a range of sights to see and activities to enjoy here including swimming and surfing at the local beaches along side water sports, including parasailing, jet ski-ing, water ski-ing and windsurfing on the nearby Noosa River. Visitors can also take a kayak or canoe through the everglades of the Great Sandy National Park where you can travel through waterways teeming with wildlife that have flowed for thousands of years. The renowned Australia Zoo is home is full of furry creatures from wombats to Tasmanian Devils. Other fun activities include travelling across the Noosa River via cable ferry and journeying deep into the Cooloola National Park to the Teewah and Rainbow Beach coloured sands or travelling along the spectacular Seventy Five Mile Beach to Fraser Island and explore the natural beauty of this magnificent wilderness with a guided rainforest walk. Take a refreshing swim in a freshwater lake before returning to Noosa through the towering forests of Satinay and Brushbox and down the remote beach streaches of the 'sandy highway'.
We also recommend dolphin watching at nearby Harvey Bay. Queensland is Australia's fastest-growing state, and it is no surprise as it offers so much!

North Korea's state media has confirmed what was never in doubt – a 100 percent, no-abstention poll victory for leader Kim Jong-Un in the country's stage-managed parliamentary election.
Every single vote cast on Sunday in Kim's constituency was for the man who can now add MP to his many titles that include Supreme Commander of the armed forces and chairman of the powerful National Defence Commission.
"All the voters of the constituency took part in voting and 100 percent of them voted for Kim Jong-Un," the North's official KCNA news agency said.
"This is an expression of people's absolute support and profound trust in supreme leader Kim Jong-Un as they single-mindedly remain loyal to him, holding him in high esteem," it said.
Sunday's ballot was an election in name only.
Each of the nearly 700 constituencies had only one state-sanctioned candidate, ensuring a foregone conclusion in every case.
Voting was mandatory and state media said all registered voters across the country – except for those based overseas – took part.

Cisco IP ACL Configuration
A while ago poor Cisco Freak from the Whirlpool Forum and others had the arduous task of trying to get me to properly understand what happens when a Cisco IP Access Control List (ACL) is applied to an interface as in or out.
This sounds simple enough and for 20 years or so I had thought it was. That's until I gave some (rather poor) advice to a poor soul regarding blocking some VLAN traffic on his Cisco switch. Due to some misconceptions on my part my advice was errant. The above mentioned gurus set about patiently (at least it seemed patiently to me) correcting my minor, yet important misconceptions regarding the nuances of applying Cisco ACLs to interfaces.
I have since found what I reckon is the best explanation of the concept I have read. And surprisingly it is from the cisco site.
The relevant section is…
When you refer to a router, these terms have these meanings.
Out—Traffic that has already been through the router and leaves the interface. The source is where it has been, on the other side of the router, and the destination is where it goes.
In—Traffic that arrives on the interface and then goes through the router. The source is where it has been and the destination is where it goes, on the other side of the router.
Inbound —If the access list is inbound, when the router receives a packet, the Cisco IOS software checks the criteria statements of the access list for a match. If the packet is permitted, the software continues to process the packet. If the packet is denied, the software discards the packet.
Outbound—If the access list is outbound, after the software receives and routes a packet to the outbound interface, the software checks the criteria statements of the access list for a match. If the packet is permitted, the software transmits the packet. If the packet is denied, the software discards the packet.
The in ACL has a source on a segment of the interface to which it is applied and a destination off of any other interface. The out ACL has a source on a segment of any interface other than the interface to which it is applied and a destination off of the interface to which it is applied.
For this to cement with me I had to imagine I am a Traffic Cop on a router interface. So to keep it simple, let's imagine a simple router that only has one LAN and one WAN interface. Then imagine you are the Policeman standing guard on the LAN interface on that router. That means you stand facing (connected to) the LAN (probably a switch). In this instance, Inbound traffic is coming at you head on, headed for the router.
So if an ACL is applied in on you that means you are deciding if it should be allowed from the LAN into the Router. if an ACL is applied out on you that means it you are deciding if it should be allowed from the Router to the LAN. In both cases you will look at your rule book and consider if the traffic is permissible or not. Hence why it is important to block traffic at it's source to conserve precious CPU resources.
Back to the analogy, being the good Cop you are you know that if you get a positive match on your list you stop looking any further. So you see a deny statement for a packet you instantly deflect it and don't have to deal with it anymore. You don't keep looking down the list to see if it's permitted elsewhere. Equally if it's permitted, you don't keep looking to see if it is later denied. That'd be silly.
Just remember the Cop (ACL) always faces the direction the interface is connected to. LAN faces the LAN, WAN faces the WAN, VLAN faces that VLAN. That's a tricky one. The VLAN ACLs inbound traffic is coming at it from the VLAN headed elsewhere! Hence, on a VLAN ACL, if the ACL is applied out, it is traffic destined for the VLAN! If you remember/understand that, the rest is a cinch.

Can Manchester United football school score in India?
One of the English Premier League's top football clubs, Manchester United, has opened its first training school in India. Zubair Ahmed reports from Mumbai on what the club hopes to achieve through the school.
A clutch of young boys and girls are hugging different parts of the "world class" green turf and going through the meticulously worked out afternoon practice session.
A coach shouts instructions: "Dribble Alastair, dribble."
Alastair is huffing and puffing while trying to dribble the ball past other players.
Everyone is learning the art of dribbling at Mumbai's footballing hub, the Cooperage, which is going through a complete makeover.
A brand new natural grass pitch, donated by football's world governing body Fifa, has already been laid out.
It is where Manchester United have chosen to open their first football school in India.
'Why cricket-mad India?'
It's midday and the sun beats down on the trainees, but that fails to diminish their enthusiasm.
They believe they might be the answer to India's appalling standard in international football.
Alastair Fernandes is one of the nearly 300 trainees at Manchester United's school in Mumbai, launched last month.
A trainee has to cough up 12,600 rupees ($256; £162) for a course of 10 sessions.
The high fee prices out working-class children, so not surprisingly, most trainees are urban middle- or upper-middle-class boys and girls.
But no one is complaining, as the demand for quality training is high in the city. There are hardly any football academies of international standards.
Alastair is one of the youngest but also one of the most ambitious trainees. His dream is to play like Manchester United players, Nani and Valencia.
"When I grow up I want to play for Manchester United," says Alastair with a heavy emphasis on the English club he loves.
Many of the boys training here want to represent big football clubs and not necessarily their country.
India may be a country of over one billion people but in football it ranks 157th in the world.
And yet Manchester United, one of the world's leading football clubs, has chosen to open a school in cricket-mad India. Why?
"We have fans all over the world. We are a global football club. We need to reach out to our fan base worldwide. India is a perfect example where we are bringing Manchester United from Manchester all the way to India," replies Chris O'Brien, the school's head coach.
To demonstrate that Manchester United means business, Mr O'Brien was sent over to Mumbai by his bosses at Old Trafford (Manchester United's home ground and headquarters) to teach the school's young recruits some deft touches and techniques.
Huge potential
Besides Manchester United - Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal have also explored tie-ups with local partners.
Some European football clubs, such as Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, have also been showing a keen interest in the Indian market.
Experts say merchandise is a big driving force for these clubs to come to India which is perhaps one of the last untapped markets.
A couple of years ago, the UK-India Business Council hosted a seminar on bringing European sports to India.
Adidas' head of global sports marketing, Jocelyn Robiot, estimated that the sportswear market in India was nearly $500m (£316m).
Football is becoming increasingly popular in India. Marketing experts say after cricket, football is the second most popular sport and has a huge following among the urban youth.
Several European football clubs have sent talent scouts to India in the last few years.
Nearly all of them have come to the conclusion that cricket cannot be replaced but there is a huge potential for football's growth in the near future.
"The way Indians are consuming football, specially the English Premier League in urban India, one day football will be neck and neck with cricket," says Mukul Choudhari, the Manchester United Soccer School's director.
So, do European clubs just want a token presence in India right now? Or do they have long-term plans to develop and raise the standard of the game in India?
Mr O'Brien makes it clear his club's goal in India is not to hunt for talent but to teach kids at the grassroots level how to play football the Manchester United way.
"Our philosophy is to work with players of all abilities. It's not a talent identification exercise. It's about bringing Manchester United to all young players all across the country, no matter what level they play at," insists Mr O'Brien.
Manchester United has a few cafes and sports stores in the country in partnership with Indian companies.
But the Mumbai soccer school is just the beginning of a long association.
"We are not here just for a couple of weeks. We are here to develop the game at the grassroots level. It's a long-term initiative," Mr O'Brien says.

U.S. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that he has a history of handling sexual harassment cases the right way, and Frankfort Democrats are "scrambling to try to belatedly get it right."
In an interview with the Herald-Leader, McConnell said a sexual harassment scandal in the Democrat-led state House "wasn't handled well."
McConnell, who is running for a sixth term, has been vocal about a controversial decision last week by the Kentucky Legislative Ethics Commission to not punish former Democratic state Rep. John Arnold, who resigned last fall after three female staffers accused him of harassment. He has denied the allegations.
On Saturday, McConnell accused House Democrats of a "cover-up," saying the ethics commission should reopen the case. Likely Democratic Senate nominee Alison Lundergan Grimes followed suit Monday, calling for a re-hearing of the case by the commission.
McConnell offered himself as an example of how elected officials should handle situations when a member of their own party is accused of sexual harassment.
"I think I demonstrated 19 years ago, in the toughest possible position, how this ought to be handled," McConnell said.
The senator was harking back to the case of then-Senate Finance Committee chairman Sen. Bob Packwood, R-Oregon, who was accused of sexual harassment shortly after Republicans had won control of the Senate and with McConnell sitting as chairman of the Senate Ethics Committee.
McConnell, who said Tuesday that sexual harassment "was not being treated very seriously in the country" at the time, made a motion to expel Packwood from the Senate. Packwood instead resigned.
"I did that 19 years ago," McConnell said. "I don't see much evidence of that going on in Frankfort right now. Maybe that will change."
However, some Democrats say McConnell's handling of the Packwood scandal resembles how House Speaker Greg Stumbo dealt with the Arnold scandal.
In August, Stumbo filed a petition for censure or expulsion of Arnold and appointed a committee of lawmakers to investigate their colleague. Arnold subsequently resigned, and the committee's work stalled as members argued about whether the committee had authority to punish a former lawmaker.
"The day we learned of the incident, we acted to protect our employees and instructed the Legislative Research Commission director to investigate the allegations and follow our policy," Stumbo said Wednesday in a statement. "Additionally, I personally filed a "petition for censure or expulsion," which resulted in former Rep. Arnold resigning his seat."
Last week, the ethics commission voted 4-1 to fine and reprimand Arnold for his behavior. But under the commission's rules, at least five votes were needed to act. Three members did not attend the meeting, and an additional seat has been left vacant for years by legislative leaders.
The only no vote was cast by Elmer George, who was appointed in January by Stumbo. George said he didn't think the commission had the authority to punish a former member of the General Assembly.
On Monday, House Democrats hastily approved a bill to strengthen and diversify the ethics commission. The bill clarified that former lawmakers can be punished by the ethics panel for offenses committed while in office and that sexual harassment is an ethics violation. However, the Republican-led Senate did not take up the bill Tuesday, the final day of this year's legislative session. Senate President Robert Stivers, R-Manchester, said afterward that the proposal wasn't strong enough.
Since McConnell's initial reference to the 1995 Packwood episode on Saturday, the Grimes campaign has circulated an editorial from The New York Times that accused McConnell at the time of "bullying tactics that betray the committee's nonpartisan mission."
The battle at issue was between McConnell and Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., who pushed for a full Senate hearing of the case.
McConnell pushed back, threatening to call for similar hearings into allegations against former Sens. Tom Daschle, D-S.D., and Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.
The editorial said that "it is improper for Mr. McConnell to hold the Packwood matter hostage to unrelated issues. That is an abuse of his power as chairman."
McConnell said at the time that he wanted to avoid the "circus" of a full hearing.
When asked Tuesday about that version of the events, McConnell said: "The way it ended was I made a motion to expel him from the Senate."
"He decided to resign short of that," McConnell said. "That's the toughest possible situation, when people you know, people of your same party, people of influence, have made a mistake, to step up to the plate and handle it the right way."
Other news articles from the time indicate that the majority of senators on both sides of the aisle praised McConnell for his handling of the matter despite Boxer's charge that many of the actions he took "were not proper."
Current Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who routinely battles with McConnell, praised the Kentucky senator's role in the process as "strong and resolute," according to a 1995 article in the Louisville Courier-Journal.
"I think McConnell and the rest of the committee allowed the Senate to have one of its finest days," Reid said at the time. "It couldn't have happened without him."
McConnell used the episode in an ad during his 1996 re-election campaign, featuring footage of him at a news conference saying, "no workplace in America ought to tolerate the kind of offensive, degrading sexual misconduct that the ethics committee finds Sen. Packwood to be guilty of."

April 9, 2009 --A west suburban school will get some of its electricity from an alternative source of energy. Crews on Thursday finished installing an urban wind turbine at Rhodes School in River Grove.
School officials believe the turbine is the first of its kind in the country.
It's expected to produce about 400 kilowatt hours of electricity per month or about half of the electricity that an average home would use.
The turbine will also be used as an educational tool to teach students about alternative power and saving energy.

The Zombiepocalypse
Background – The World
After the end of the first Gulf War, nearly all the troops came home with stories of weird shapes seen in the night, strange noises coming from nowhere and sights that just didn't add up. Of course, the military's PR agents explained it all away as "combat fatigue" and "the fog of war", but many believe the reports are too numerous, too similiar and too well corraborated to be figments of anyone's imagination.
The weirdness continued in the ensuing years, as the country polarized around the christian fundamentalists who pointed to the increasing number of "irrefutable" claims of "demonic doings" and "miracles" as proof the end of the world was nigh. The nonbelievers pointed to the ubiquity of home cameras and video editing software. Late night TV was full of self-proclaimed wizards and witches, who seemed to be able to conjure effects at will, with no props or setup.
Videos of the OKC bombing clearly showed a face attributed to satan in the billowing dust cloud. The fact that McVeigh claimed himself a holy warrior was only lost on the other warriors for christ, and they continued to redouble their efforts to convert the unholy plebians and/or create their own little Jerusalems through the nineties. The divide between the religious right and the rest of society came to a particular head in 1997, when then president Clinton vetoed a bill banning cloning. He stated that the gains to be had by genomic research far outweighed the risks. Several southern and western states nearly seceeded from the union, and military and national guard units were put on the highest alert. The crisis was averted when the administration allowed a bill that forbade federal funding for human genomic research, and required all "self sustaining tissues" to be destroyed within 14 days of "viable uniqueness".
However, the schism in American society did not heal with the stroke of a pen. Malaise, psychological disorders, depression, nightmares, sleeplessness seemed to affect not just Americans, but everyone across the world. Popular entertainment seemed preoccupied with dark themes, the nature of mankind and the possibility of redemption. When the kids shot up the school at Columbine, nobody was surprised. Sales of OTC and prescription sleeping pills, antidepressants and antianxiety drugs skyrocketed.
The attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11 galvanized the unbelievers. At the same time, dark political forces seemed to be growing out of the former Soviet Union, and while nobody but the wackiest conspiracy nuts really believed they were tied to islamist fundamentalists, the new political organization seemed intent on undermining the West's traditional role as leaders of the planet's economies. The neo-conservative movement in America played off these threats and swept the elections of the early 2k, winning massive majorities in the executive and legislative branches and then stacking the judicial branch with likeminded people.

The neo-conservative movement in America played off these threats and swept the elections of the early 2k, winning massive majorities in the executive and legislative branches and then stacking the judicial branch with likeminded people.
Life across the planet grew grim, and the US was not spared. Food riots became commonplace in third world countries. The "storm of the century" pummeled both hemispheres every year. Sightings of strange beasts and unexplained occurances began to show up in "respectable" news outlets. Most people, despite the dwindling economy, soldiered on and tried to eke out a comfortable life as best they could. In the US, jobs related to the military sector were plentiful for people willing to toe the party line, and the armed forces were recruiting in record numbers. The stranglehold on the media by the ruling party made sure patriotic fervor was stoked. The newly formed Department of Homeland Security had carte blanche, and scientific research seemed to dwindle to a halt. Unless it had military applications, of course.
The forces of the newly formed New World Alliance were positioning themselves in direct conflict with the interests of the G7. Comprised of most of the former USSR, Mayanmar, Bolivia, Cuba, Sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Central America, it's members espoused a militarstic socialism and "pride of the oppressed", and their leaders openly spoke of "taking what is ours by right of history". As the number of bush wars grew, and the intensity slowly but surely intensified, it became obvious that the NWA was working with anti-western fundamentalists in at least an advisory capacity, funneling intelligence and materials into combat zones. When the Columbia shuttle broke up in reentry, the media widely reported "enemy agents" were believed at fault. But when the crew was found alive in the intact command section, it was hailed as a miracle. Before being whisked away for "medical observation", the astronauts each reported "angels" that protected them from the inferno and gently carried their cockpit to the ground. Unfortunately, the astronauts are still in "observation" some years later and the incident has dropped off the public radar.
The G7 was too tired, too broke and too busy trying to clean up after the mess that global warming was causing to engage the NWA directly. The american appetite for cheap gadgets and entertainment still drove ships laden with consumer goods across the oceans between Asia and the west coast of North America. While scientific research in the traditional sense of discovery for the good of mankind seemed the province of a handful of cranks and idealists, datacenters with concentrations of computing power never before seen were growing at an alarming rate. It was an open secret at every medical school that the best jobs for promising young doctors and biotechnicians were with the military, though no official statistics were available.
By the time McCain won the 2009 election, the United States had become a vividly polarized society, with the fantastically wealthy elite writing rules for themselves while the fragmented and dwindling middle class tried to make ends meet, keep their job and raise their kids. All it cost them was their civil liberties and any hope of saving for retirement. The increasing masses of jobless working class people hunkered down in the vast stretches of smalltown america, forced out of the cities and suburbs by increasingly draconian taxes and "patriot duties". Soon, vast parts of the heartland were virtually lawless fiefdoms, with innumerable local prophets, warlords and bandits assuming political control of the destitute population. The federal government was content to let this de facto privatization of local administration happen, as long as the tax money went to Washington and nobody challenged the system.

About us
This year marks Open Polytechnic's 70th Anniversary. Since 1946 Open Polytechnic has been helping students from all over New Zealand change their lives through access to flexible distance learning.
Watch our video recorded at the 2016 graduation ceremonies to find out more about the impact Open Polytechnic has had on New Zealand and our students.
Open Polytechnic had a different name when it first began operations in 1946. Known then as the Technical Correspondence School, we were originally created to help with resettlement training for returning servicemen and women from World War 2.
When the institution first opened it had 23 staff, 673 students, and course materials and assignments were sent by Army transport.
Following a change in the Education Act in 1963, we became the Technical Correspondence Institute, known affectionately as TCI by many tradies still in the workforce today.
Another legislation change in 1990 saw us become the Open Polytechnic, and begin offering our first degrees – first up was the Bachelor of Business (Accounting).
Open Polytechnic chief executive Dr Caroline Seelig says that while the name of our organisation might have changed over the last 70 years, one thing has always shone through. "The accessible, flexible distance learning experience we provide has helped change the lives of thousands of adults, and you don't have to go far in New Zealand before you run into someone who talks about how Open Polytechnic has helped them achieve their educational goals."
While Open Polytechnic has always changed and evolved over the years to meet the changing needs of New Zealanders and the New Zealand workforce, we have always had the same underlying purpose – to take education out of only being available in institutional settings, and bring it to where people want it and need it; into their homes, their workplaces and their lives.
On 1 July, 2016, staff enjoyed a morning tea to commemorate Open Polytechnic's 70th anniversary.
In celebration of our 70th Anniversary, Open Polytechnic ran a photo contest on our Facebook page, with students submitting photos of themselves in front of landmarks or recognisable sites in the town in which they study. Below are the first and second place photos from our students. To see all of the student photo submissions, visit our "Open Polytechnic Everywhere" album at http://bit.ly/2b7Mnur

Singer Demi Lovato is delighted Amy Schumer has challenged "society's twisted views" of perfection with her naked Pirelli calendar picture.
The Trainwreck actress is one of the famous faces featured in the 2016 edition of the iconic year planner, and for her black and white shot, she posed on a stool, wearing nothing but a pair of knickers and high heels, while holding a cup of coffee.
The image, shot by revered photographer Annie Leibovitz, evoked a huge reaction from the public, and high praise from Schumer's peers, including 23-year-old Demi.
The singer, who has battled body image issues all her life, believes Amy truly represents the message she is trying to get across in the lyrics to her songs on hit new album Confident.
"This is the perfect example of a #CONFIDENT woman taking a giant s**t on society's twisted views of what perfection is," she wrote on Instagram on Tuesday (01Dec15) alongside the image of Schumer baring all. "I wrote Confident with women like her (men too) and examples like this in mind.
"The attitude captured in this photo is brave, sexy and inspiring but most importantly REAL!!!! F**k yeah @amyschumer... Women all over the world thank you for this. Especially me."
Demi spent time in rehab in 2011 and 2012, battling an eating disorder and other body-image related problems, but she bounced back to become a mental health campaigner and confident women's rights activist.
The Cool for the Summer singer even posed nude herself during a photoshoot with Vanity Fair in October (15), and then insisted the revealing shots of her should not be retouched.
"The most challenging part of that photoshoot for me was going in the buff with no Photoshop," she told Access Hollywood. "There were times where I was looking at the pictures with the photographer and he would say, 'Oh, we could fix that,' and I was like, 'No, we can't. We cannot use Photoshop in this shoot'.
"Of course it's awkward, but when I start to think about the message, when I would start to think about how many people this would inspire, I got more comfortable doing it."

During his stay in the MeetFactory, Stijn Van Dorpe has been researching forms of ideology that offer a counterweight for the presumed natural and as such invisible ideology of neoliberalism. Van Dorpe invited different Prague based ideological groups that all assume a radical approach towards different inequalities (caused by capitalist society), to have a common meeting and to discuss some thorny issues. The outcome of this discussion will be visualized by a huge fabric, assembled by sewing during a week of collective meetings. The fabric will be created into a quilt of different ideological signs and positions of the group's together with marks of how the group's relate to each other and actual solutions for different political challenges. By bringing these people together around the central democratic values of equality and freedom, the artist (re)installs a fictional, utopian political model, a model that offers alternatives for today's status quo. On Saturday the 10th during the open studio at 8.30 pm, the fabric formation will give rise to a public discussion.

West Point woman arrested on felony drug charges
A West Point woman was charged with multiple felony drug charges following a traffic stop last week.
Investigators with the Clay County Sheriff's Office charged 30-year-old Megan Farrell with possession of marijuana (misdemeanor), introduction of contraband in a correctional facility and four counts of possession of a controlled substance - codeine, morphine, amphetamine and Vyvanse.
Farrell was transported to the Clay County Detention Center with bond set at $22,105.15.
She was arraigned in Clay County Justice Court on Monday.
Sheriff Eddie Scott said the investigation is ongoing, but encouraged anyone with information to contact investigators at the Clay County Sheriff's Office at 662-494-2896 or Golden Triangle Crime Stoppers at 1-800-530-7151.

Do you remember when the news broke about the U.S. tapping the phones and emails of U.N. delegates in NY as part of an aggressive campaign of strong-arming countries into voting for the illegal war on Iraq? Now, stories about U.S. coercions vis-a-vis Iran are slowly coming to light, and I am sure there are many more that we will never know about.
Stephen G. Rademaker, the former Assistant Secretary for Nonproliferation and International Security at the U.S. State Department, has acknowledged that India's votes against Iran at the IAEA were coereced.
Bush probably promised that if India helps to punish Iran for trying to excercise the rights guaranteed to it under the NPT, then Mr. Bush would reward India for refusing to join the NPT, and I guess that explains the sweet (no pun intended) mangos for nuclear capabilites deal Bush offered India.
India will get nukes, Iran will get nuked, and the U.S. will get mangos, among other things.

The Iraq State of Islam
Michelle Bachmann, the House Representative from the 6th district of Minnesotta has some insider information about the futre of Iraq, though she isn't revealing her sources. Here is an excerpt of an interview, in which she discusses the content of a secret pact:
"Iran is the trouble maker, trying to tip over apple carts all over Baghdad right now because they want America to pull out. And do you know why? It's because they've already decided that they're going to partition Iraq.
And half of Iraq, the western, northern portion of Iraq, is going to be called…. the Iraq State of Islam, something like that. And I'm sorry, I don't have the official name, but it's meant to be the training ground for the terrorists. There's already an agreement made.
They are going to get half of Iraq and that is going to be a terrorist safe haven zone where they can go ahead and bring about more terrorist attacks in the Middle East region and then to come against the United States because we are their avowed enemy."
That's right folks, the "Iraq State of Islam" in the Western part of Northern Iraq!
In case you've never heard of Bachmann, let me refresh your memory, she is the one who couldn't let go of Bush after his last state of the union address.
One of the best descriptions I've read of that incident is the following from a DC blog site:
"Yes, we saw crazy Michele Bachmann sexually assault the President. It was… weird. It made us uncomfortable. Sadly, Minnesota's KSTP has taken the video down from their website, after their servers were presumably swamped by perverted Drudge readers. We'll work on getting our own up, but in case you're wondering what you missed, the crazy Jesus Lady held on to the President's shoulder with a Holy Ghost-strengthened death grip for what felt like an hour. He signed her an autograph, she still held on. He tried to ditch her and kiss some other congresswoman, and she still held on. In fact, she held on even tighter.
She finally got her hug and kiss, after the President realized that if he didn't acquiesce, she would probably slip him a roofie and drag him into a committee room somewhere."
And now you have had a glimpse of what kind of personalities and lunatic reasons are associated with those who support George Bush's Iraq strategy.

1. Political prisoner Ahmad Batebi has been transferred to a hospital, and his doctor has announced that he is not in a condition where he can endure further incarceration. It looks like this news of his condition is spreading pretty quickly across the Persian language websites; I hope the publicity helps his situation.
2. According to a story published in Friday's New York Times Weekend Arts section about a new exhibition at the Asia Society, "Flaunting Dominion in Ancient Iran", a number of objects, which had been in French museums for generations (read: stolen by colonialists eons ago), were held up at customs for reasons having to do with the current sanctions on Iran and despite having permits.
According to the terms of the US embargo on Iran, no art objects of Iranian origin may enter the U.S. without permit, no matter how long they have been outside of Iran.
As my friend and erstwhile blogger Sima pointed out when we were chatting earlier, this may be a blessing in disguise. Maybe if the artworks made it here they will try to confiscate it and sell it off, you know the way they are planning to do with Iranian artifacts in possession of University of Chicago.
3. I haven't seen it yet, but I've heard decent reviews from a few people, so I will cautiously recommend this BBC documentary on Tehran. It supposedly shows many different sides of Tehran, instead of reflecting the hackneyed polarities usually beamed in for Western audiences.

Anna Nicole, Britney Spears, and Kooodz
The U.S. media out-does itself on a daily basis. CNN's Newsroom program, which is broadcasting as I write, prompted me to send them the following letter:
As if CNN's excessive focus on Anna Nicole Smith was not enough, now you are covering Britney Spears' shaved head?
The funniest part of this embarrassing focus on celebrities on a "news" show is the way that CNN tries to disavow its involvement in making these stories "newsworthy". Your anchors' banter about there being "lots of celebrity news" is hilarious, as though CNN has no role in making events such as a haircut a "developing story".
By the way, please let your anchors know that Quds is not pronounced Koooodz. As for the content of your coverage of the Quds Forces, I will save my comments for a later time, as I am sure there will be many opportunities in the near future to speak to your superficial and ill-informed Iran stories.
Anna Nicole, Britney Spears, and the Koooooooodz Forces, U.S. journalism at its finest!

1. The niece of Pakistan's ex-prime minister Benazir Bhutto, who happens to have one Iranian grandparent, manages to take a trip to her grandmother's homeland. You can read about Fati's determination to visit Iran and her brief stay in Tehran. (third installment here)
2. The Iranian government is so concerned with gender equality that the parliament has been musing an affirmative action bill that would guarantee a certain number of slots for men, since they are increasingly outnumbered by their female counterparts. Today, officials announced that 67% of students admitted to Iranian medical schools are young women. I guess the parliament better get to work on enacting their proposed laws ASAP.
3.Check out this Kuwaiti singer's video satirizing Mr. Bush and his "freedom and democracy" agenda. Bush must be in big trouble when even Kuwaitis start turning against him! Anyway, my favorite part of the video comes at the end. I wont spoil it for you, but let's just say it involves one of my favorite "men".
4. Have you heard the one about the Iraqi graduate student at Harvard who left the U.S. to study displaced Iraqis and then he became a displaced Iraqi himself? And he is not the only person of Iraqi descent having a hard time reaching Harvard. A friend of ours who has been accepted into a graduate program at Harvard, may not be able make it to the States in time to begin his studies. Born in Spain and holding a British passport, he just has one small problem: his dad is an Iraqi. According to the people at the U.S. embassy, his father's nationality means that his student visa could take months to go through. Naturally, he is considering alternatives on where else he can pursue his graduate education.
Meanwhile, the U.S. has announced that they will accept 7,000 new Iraqi refugees. Seven thousand out of an estimated 2.8 million Iraqis who have been displaced because of the U.S. war. I guess the other 2,793,000 Iraqi should try and cram themselves into neighboring Jordan or Syria (forget Iran, they'd only be displaced again after the bombs start falling).
Anyway, you can be sure that the refugees will be highly screened, with first preference going to people who variously collaborated with the occupation authorities, the same way that refugees were chosen after the disasters in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.

1. Have a look at how CNN correspondent Christiane Amanpour treats her younger Iranian counterparts, a group of journalists who are trying to ask her about her Iran coverage. The clip doesn't have subtitles, but you don't have to be able to understand Amanpour's broken Persian to grasp how condescending and rude she is to the Iranian journalists. She actually hushes them like you would a group of cranky babies.
When an Iranian journalist asks her about the political content of her reports, she responds that there is no such content in her work. Does Ms. Amanpour know that she is covering Iranian nuclear facilities, rather than, say, rose gardens in Shiraz?
She also brushes them off when they ask whether an Iranian journalist could have the access to sensitive U.S. sites and highlevel officials like Amanpour has had in Iran.
Not surprisingly, the Iranian channel covering Amanpour's behavior is having a propaganda field day, but frankly, I can't say I blame them.
2. The owner of the Lebanese business pictured below is on to something. There is a sign up asking patrons not to talk politics while inside.
I saw this picture here, where there is also an Arabic language story about it.
Somebody should capture this sentiment as a slogan on a piece of clothing, kind of like the "Please don't ask me about my thesis" t-shirt. These days, I've been feeling so overwhelmed and freaked out about political developments that I could really use a "Please don't ask me about politics" t-shirt.

Iranians Come Out To Speak Against Aggression on Iran
I found last week's peace march in Washington DC quite encouraging: significant numbers of Iranians turned out to specifically show their opposition to aggression on Iran. I was busy hauling around and holding up signs for most of the time, but I did manage to take some pictures when people were first gathering. I am posting some of them below.
First, our young activists:
Now some of the banners:

The consolidation of one of Du Page County`s smallest and richest school districts with a Cook County district nine times as large and half as rich would ``clearly benefit all students in the territory,`` concluded the superintendent of the larger elementary school district at a hearing Tuesday. ``This is by no means a case of a Goliath attacking a David,`` said Supt. C. Thomas Reiter of Cook County`s Lemont Elementary District 113, which is seeking consolidation with Bromberek Elementary District 65 in Du Page. Lemont has 919 students; Bromberek has 104.
``I see the benefits of smallness maintained plus the advantages of a little larger system,`` said Reiter, pointing to reduced per-pupil operating costs and expanded school programming possible through pooling of both districts` resources.
