The six-man shortlist for the PFA Player of the Year award was revealed at lunchtime on Saturday. Asked whether he agreed with the team, Keown told The Daily Mail: 'The goalkeeper should be Ederson . "Think back to Claudio Bravo past year who was so indecisive in goal for City". " Ederson will spend much of a match with little to do but will still pull off a moment of brilliance when called upon".
While Bautista, age 37, has worked as a primary corner outfielder for the last several years, he'll try his hand at third base for the Braves, starting at their extended spring training complex. "A guy chooses to come to here rather than somewhere else, it's a good thing", he said. Still there is no timetable for when Bautista can be expected to be ready to play in the minor leagues or Atlanta.
Antoine Fuqua is returning to direct, with Richard Wenk also back as the sequel's writer. When he learns that an old friend has been killed, he sets out to avenge her murder. Pedro Pascal ( Game of Thrones , Narcos ) and Ashton Sanders join them for The Equalizer 2 . " The Equalizer " is Fuqua's highest-grossing film.
Antonio Conte gave his backing to Alvaro Morata after Chelsea's win at Burnley and insisted the striker was not taken off because he missed a great chance to score . "Tonight I saw a great team spirit". A second-half miss, after racing clear of the Burnley defence, highlighted the £58 million man's lack of confidence and prompted Antonio Conte to replace him with Eden Hazard on 70 minutes.
The 2018 National Football League schedule is out and the defending Super Bowl champions kick off the regular-season slate against the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday, Sept. Sunday, Nov. 18, 1 p.m. - Eagles at Saints: Former Eagles cornerback Patrick Robinson returns an interception for a touchdown. November 25 vs.
Being home on the weekend before Christmas and the weekend before New Year's is a nice finish for the team. On Nov. 26, the Patriots defeated the Dolphins 35-17 at Gillette Stadium. Week 3: Sept 23 at Detroit, 8:20 p.m. According to Jeff Howe of The Athletic , the Dolphins will travel to Foxboro to play the Patriots in Week 4 on September 30.
The Reds were undone by Jay Rodriguez's second-half header after winning at the Etihad Stadium last weekend in scintillating fashion and the manager stressed the Blues' success has little to do with the surprise result at Old Trafford . In practice, it was probably as much through a desire to rest legs ahead of Saturday's FA Cup semifinal vs. Tottenham as a mass wielding of the axe, but Pogba's name stood out glaringly among those retained.
Bergeron was nominated as a finalist for the Selke Trophy on Thursday for the seventh season in a row. When Bergeron met with the press Thursday he did sound quite hoarse, but it's not known if an illness would have been enough to keep him out of the lineup.
He said: "I respect all opinions, but when you are attacked personally, it starts to get hard. It has been hard not to play and practice". The captain of Paris Saint-Germain says the unfair criticism directed at him has made up his mind about an exit from the Ligue 1 giants.
The Jets hit another prime time game early in the season in week three against the Browns. Miami's home schedule features an impressive slate of opponents, including four games against playoff teams from the 2017 season. The Palm Beach Post also reports that players of the Miami Dolphins will be wearing Stoneman Douglass shirts during the offseason program's start.
Leonard's rookie season was the lockout shortened 2011-12 and he played in 64 of the 66 games. Kawhi Leonard has a new team, and Gregg Popovich isn't the coach. San Antonio lost the first two games of the first-round playoff series on the road. Leonard's minutes increase during that stretch, going from around 16 in his third game back up to 20, then 26 and then 27.
Belgium midfielder De Bruyne has been one of the stand out players in City's record-breaking campaign, but he knows Guardiola was the mastermind behind their triumph. City's title-winning week was slightly soured by crashing out of the Champions League at the quarter-finals 5-1 on aggregate to Liverpool just five days previously.
To join the conversation make sure you tune into The Game with Ryan Fowler weekday afternoons from 2-6 p.m. for the latest news and discussion surrounding Alabama Crimson Tide Football. There are probably 100 D-I programs that would love to have him. Hurts completed just under 62% of his passes in his two seasons at Alabama where he threw for 40 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
Liverpool have already beaten Manchester City three times this year, and look to be a team that is determined to start challenging for major trophies under Jurgen Klopp . Salah will lead Egypt into the World Cup this summer for the first time since 1990. What a season it has been for the Egyptian superstar! Klopp was joking, of course, but his point is still valid: the world is watching Salah as he continues to break record after record.
Victor Moses was the match-winner as Chelsea eased the pressure on London rivals Arsenal by denting Burnley's surge for sixth place. "This could be an option for Sunday or the future", Conte said. "We have moved forward a long way but there is still a gap between the top clubs and ourselves, without a shadow of doubt", he said. Chelsea went in front in the 20th minute as Moses' cross was missed by Burnley keeper Nick Pope and deflected in off Long.
Detroit is 37-39-2 all-time on Thanksgiving Day, including wins in four of the past five seasons. Detroit now leads the all-time series between the two teams 7-6, with the last matchup being a 24-17 Lions victory at MetLife in 2014. Ameer Abdullah #21 of the Detroit Lions celebrates his touchdown against the Green Bay Packers during the fourth quarter at Ford Field on December 31, 2017 in Detroit, Michigan.
At the time of the collision, road conditions were clear and the sun was shining, Zablocki said. The RCMP is also looking at interviews, photographs, environmental factors, visibility, road conditions and human elements involved in the crash.
Admission and parking were free, and the game attracted a crowd of 46,028. Canha, normally a corner outfielder, said tracking balls in center is actually easier but conceded both were do-or-die plays. Fans had to pre-register to get one of the free tickets, but the stands are expected to be filled for the celebration. "I've just got to grind it out".
The Iowa men's and women's basketball teams don't yet know when they will begin playing Big Ten games next season. The women are maintaining an 18-game conference schedule, meaning the Husker women will face four opponents once at home , another four once on the road and five teams in home-and-away meetings.
That will be the first piece of the puzzle before the Giants fill in a blank at No. 2. There has been plenty of discussion about what the Browns will ultimately decide to do, but a new report indicates they could be considering an unconventional move to find their quarterback of the future.
Just when you thought the Jags had outdone themselves by putting in a pool at their stadium and serving teal hamburgers during the playoffs, they go an add a dog park to EverBank Field. Apparently, they'll also have access to their own pool. The old two-tone Jaguars helmets are out. It was a bit anticlimactic, however, after artwork of the uniforms was hung at Jacksonville International Airport on Wednesday evening.
Zinedine Zidane has insisted once again that there is no problem between himself and Gareth Bale , after the Welsh star was named on the substitutes bench in Real's 1-1 draw with Athletic Club on Wednesday night. "It always happens in a team where you have some players in good form and that is what is happening at the minute". The French boss added that sometimes in a team full of great players it is hard to play each and every player on a regular basis, "It always happens in a team ...
He'll be wearing a mask with protective eyewear built into it, which is also reportedly stronger than a normal mask. Embiid was on the floor with the 76ers for their morning shootaround practice, but coach Brett Brown says there's no change in the All-Star center's status.
Allardyce has guided Everton to ninth in the Premier League after taking 27 points from 20 games since replacing the sacked Ronald Koeman. Our department has not been asked what we think of the survey , even though it has been passed out before.
Having an average of 53.40 in 66 tests that include 21 centuries, Kohli would want to extend his supremacy when India visit England at the end of June. Kohli enjoyed a hugely successful 2017, being named ICC cricketer of the year and Wisden's leading cricketer of the year, while Forbes put his brand value above Barcelona star Lionel Messi on their Fab 40 list .
The Spurs have dropped the first two games of the playoffs to the Warriors , suffering from a lack shooting ability. Reporter Rick Maese spoke to these "insulted" fans who felt betrayed by head coach Gregg Popovich's continuous bashing of Trump (as well as his supporters).
At halftime of TNT's broadcast of Wednesday's game, Charles Barkley said Towns is "so limited offensively". That premise turned out to be incredibly flawed. Minnesota spread the floor when the Rockets would switch their forwards and centers onto Wolves guards, giving guys like Teague and Derrick Rose room to operate and moving Towns, who often had a guard defending him, into the corner.
The Ravens can also simply point to Marshall as another option in any negotiations with Bryant's team. NY saved $5.2 million against the cap by releasing Marshall. The three-time Pro Bowl receiver will surely have more lucrative options elsewhere. "The Giants", he says, "got a helluva defense, they're going to pay OBJ (fellow wideout and pal Odell Beckham Jr.), so coming back".
Mikko Rantanen finished the game with zero shots on goal, and had only one shot attempt all game long in over 21 minutes of ice time. Colton Sissons (third of series) and Craig Smith (second) scored in the second. Making matters worse for Colorado is that it might have to play Game 5 without starting goalie Jonathan Bernier , who departed after the second period with a lower-body injury.
Tampa Bay leads the series three games to one and can close it out Saturday afternoon on home ice in Game 5. Vatanen was injured on a hit by Lightning forward Nikita Kucherov late in the first period of last night's game. The Lightning had tied it at 11:30 of the opening period on a great rush. Cory Conacher appeared to give Tampa Bay the lead with 7:39 left in the period, but the goal was overturned when a review found the Lightning were offside.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW - Chapter 24 - Verse 21
Verse 21. There shall be great tribulation. The word tribulation means calamity, or suffering. Lu 21:24 has specified in what this tribulation should consist. "They shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations; and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles shall be fulfilled." That is, until the time allotted for the Gentiles to do it shall be fully accomplished; or as long as God is pleased to suffer them to do it.
The first thing mentioned by Luke is, that they should fall by the edge of the sword. That is, should be slain in war, as the sword was then principally used in war. This was most strikingly fulfilled. Josephus, in describing it, uses almost the very words of our Saviour. All the calamities, says he, which had befallen any nation from the beginning of the world, were but small in comparison with those of the Jews. Jewish Wars, book i., preface, § 4.
He has given the following account of one part of the massacre when the city was taken: "And now rushing into the city, they slew whomsoever they found, without distinction, and burnt the houses and all the people who had fled into them. And when they entered for the sake of plunder, they found whole families of dead persons, and houses full of carcasses destroyed by famine; then they came out with their hands empty. And though they thus pitied the dead, they had not the same emotion for the living, but killed all they met, whereby they filled the lanes with dead bodies. The whole city ran with blood, insomuch that many things which were burning were extinguished by the blood." Jewish Wars, book vi. chap. 8, § 5; chap. 9, § 2, 3. He adds, that in the siege of Jerusalem, not fewer than eleven hundred thousand perished (Jewish Wars, book vi., chap. 9, § 3)—a number almost as great as are in the whole city of London. In the adjacent provinces no fewer than two hundred and fifty thousand are reckoned to have been slain; making in all whose deaths were ascertained, the almost incredible number of one million three hundred and fifty thousand, who were put to death. These were not indeed all slain with the sword. Many were crucified. "Many hundreds," says he, (Jewish Wars, book vi. Chap. xi Chap. xi. §1) "were first whipped, then tormented with various kinds of tortures, and finally crucified: the Roman soldiers nailing them (out of the wrath and hatred they bore to the Jews) one after one way, and another after another, to crosses, by way of jest, until at length the multitude became so great that room was wanting for crosses, and crosses for the bodies." So terribly was their imprecation fulfilled—" His blood be on us, and on our children," Mt 27:25. If it be asked how it was possible for so many people to be slain in a single city, it is answered, that the siege of Jerusalem commenced during the time of the passover, it is estimated that more than three millions were usually assembled. See Josephus, Jewish Wars, book vi., chap. ix., § 3, 4.
A horrible instance of the distress of Jerusalem is related by Josephus. The famine during the siege became so great that they ate what the most sordid animals refused to touch. A woman of distinguished rank, having been plundered by the soldiers, in hunger, rage, and despair, killed and roasted her babe, and had eaten one half of him before the deed was discovered. Jewish Wars, book vi., chap. 3, § 3, 4. This cruel and dreadful act was also in fulfillment of prophecy, De 28:53,56,57.
Another thing added by Luke Lu 21:24) was, that "they should be led captive into all nations." Josephus informs us that the captives taken during the whole war amounted to ninety-seven thousand. The tall and handsome young men Titus reserved for triumph; of the rest, many were distributed through the Roman provinces, to be destroyed by wild beasts in theatres; many were sent to the works in Egypt; many, especially those under seventeen years of age, were sold for slaves. Jewish Wars, book vi., chap. 9,. §2,3.

CHICAGO — As fans poured into the Yale Bowl for the 1993 football game with Harvard, a traditional season finale that embodies Ivy League rivalry, a provocative issue of The Yale Daily News circulated in the crowd.
The lead article in the student newspaper raised what at the time was a most unsporting-for-the-Ivies question about Carmen Cozza, the longtime and revered Yale coach whose team had but two wins that season: "Is It Time for Carm to Go?"
The article created a commotion and some permanent hard feelings toward the young sports editor who wrote it. His name was Theo Epstein.
Long before Epstein became the curse-busting, boy-wonder executive who helped the Boston Red Sox end an 86-year-old championship drought and took the Chicago Cubs to their first World Series in 71 years, he did the kind of work that often vexes leaders in his current business.
Epstein spent his first two years in college as a sports reporter before sharing the sports editor's job as a junior. He spent most weeknights hunkered down — razor knife and pica pole at the ready — in the townhouse that served as the Yale paper's offices.
Asked on Thursday at Wrigley Field if there was anything from those experiences that he had carried with him to his job as the Cubs' president for baseball operations, Epstein chuckled.
"I met some friends, and we had fun," he said. "You're not going to draw epic similes between The Yale Daily News and the World Series."
Still, many of those who worked closely with Epstein on his college paper recognize characteristics that are more broadly on display now, from the shrewd way he has built up the Cubs to the puckish sense of humor he flashed last month when he wore sunglasses and a fake mustache to sit incognito (briefly) in the Wrigley bleachers.
Although Epstein, now 42, was in the midst of movers and shakers at the paper — future lawyers, professors, White House advisers and even some journalists — he stood out as not just one of the sharpest minds in the room, but also as a magnetic personality who encouraged creativity.
"In very different ways, that experience of The Daily News prepared a lot of us to do great things," said Margarita Mooney, an assistant professor of practical theology at Princeton who was Epstein's fellow sports editor. "Nothing I've done has been as hard as editing The Daily News, not even writing a dissertation. I think it prepared me for that, and I have no doubt it prepared him."
Epstein took the work seriously, but not himself.
He tagged almost everyone with a nickname. The freshman reporter Elias Levenson quickly became Bureau (as in the Elias Sports Bureau), and the managing editor Mitch Raab was Rabbi. Epstein thought nothing of an impromptu wrestling match in the offices. The soundtrack for late-night editing was WFAN, the New York sports talk station.
To some of his former Daily News colleagues, it is not surprising to learn that Epstein has organized morning pickup basketball games at Staples Center in Los Angeles and Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland during this postseason.
"Everybody's envious if you make a career in a kids' game, but it really is a big business," said Troy Flint, who is now the director of communications for the California School Board Association. "What might become dull with other people, he keeps it lively."
Storytelling runs in Epstein's family. His grandfather and great-uncle won an Academy Award for the screenplay of "Casablanca." His father is a novelist and the longtime director of Boston University's creative writing program, and his sister is a screenwriter.
So Epstein's rise at the Yale newspaper seemed natural. He oversaw eight to 10 reporters, assigning them as often to squash and sailing as to basketball and baseball. And while other section editors turned page designing over to others, Epstein asserted that the sports department would handle everything — right down to each photo caption.
"We had these gigantic screens that you lay the paper out on," said Brian Mendonca, who was on the sports staff. "I can still picture Theo's face pressed against the screen looking over what he was editing."
Epstein encouraged his reporters to unearth the unusual, to explore an interesting moment in a game rather than rote play-by-play, and to cover coaches as personalities with outsize influence on Yale sports.
"What I most remember is his ability to take chances and do some offbeat things," said Levenson, who is now a lawyer. After sitting in the bleachers at Yankee Stadium for the first time, Levenson submitted an article: "The Afternoon I Lost My Bleacher Virginity."
"I thought he was going to shoot it down," Levenson said. Instead, Levenson said, "he loved it."
A special section published before the Harvard game is one of the signature responsibilities of the Daily News sports editor's job. It takes weeks of planning.
When Epstein took over in October 1993, he had seen Yale football on a downward trajectory over a few seasons, and some players had begun grumbling that the team's offense was antiquated. So for the special section, he pitched an article suggesting that after 29 years, it was time for Yale to find a new coach.
Mendonca wrote a companion article arguing that Cozza should stay, but few paid attention to that.
"It was handed out at the Harvard-Yale game — the worst possible time to have that story — so it was obviously a big splash," Mendonca said. "If the whole issue had been blank and there was just the headline 'Is It Time for Cozza to Go?' it still would have caused a stir. You were questioning a legend."
The story did not go down well with Cozza — or the football team.
After Yale beat Harvard, 33-31, Cozza quipped that a game ball ought to be awarded to The Yale Daily News.
"It hurt," Cozza, 86, said in a recent interview. He retired after the 1996 season and still has an office in the athletic department. "We had a good program. In my 32 years, we won 10 league championships and finished second eight times. To have some punk kid do a number on you right before the biggest game of the year didn't sit too well."
He added: "Obviously, he's no friend of mine and I certainly don't wish him well, but I understand how students are. They want notoriety. In all fairness, I think Theo wanted to make a name for himself. The only good thing about it is he fired up my team. I didn't have to give them any pep talk."
Cozza put any ill will aside long enough to compliment Epstein on his work as a baseball executive, noting that Yale graduates are bright. He also wanted to relay his congratulations.
Epstein, for his part, looks back with some misgivings.
"He probably deserved a little more respect than we showed him; I regret that," Epstein said. "I don't think we knew enough about the ins and outs. We had an amateur opinion and partial information. He was probably more qualified to make a judgment of whether it was time for him to go than we were, but that didn't stop us from printing it on the front page of the paper, which is something that in hindsight we should have realized."
Epstein sighed.
"It doesn't stop people in the media today from doing the exact same thing," he added. "I wish it would."
Epstein asked to convey his best to Cozza. But the former coach has other reasons to root against the Cubs in the World Series. He grew up in Parma, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland, and signed a professional contract with the Indians after college.
Noting that he threw a no-hitter and hit a home run in the same collegiate game, Cozza said: "Tell Theo I was a pretty good baseball player. Maybe he would have signed me."

At 9:20 p.m. Friday, an explosion cracked through the raucous din of a soccer game at the Stade de France.
Outside, a terrorist with a suicide belt filled with shrapnel lay dead, and the mortally wounded passerby near him became the first victim of a coordinated act of terrorism that would be the deadliest in Europe in over a decade.
Five minutes later, a black SEAT compact car motored up to Rue Alibert in a vibrant neighborhood in the 10th arrondissement. Assailants with Kalashnikovs fired on an open-air bar and sidewalk café, killing 15 people, before speeding off into the night.
Two more bombs blew up outside the stadium, and the gunmen in the black car continued their gruesome round of the city.
By 9:36, they had shot up more two bustling nightspots. Four minutes later, three different men stormed into a crowded rock concert and opened fire on more than 1,000 people.
When it was over, three hours after the attacks started, 129 people were dead and 352 others were injured.
The militant group Islamic State claimed responsibility, and authorities said evidence suggested at least some of the attackers had come from Syria and Iraq. Six of them detonated suicide vests and a seventh was shot to death by police.
"It is an act of war that was waged by a terrorist army, a jihadist army, by Daesh, against France," declared French President Francois Hollande, using an Arabic acronym for Islamic State.
"What they do is stiffen our resolve — all of us — to fight back, to hold people accountable, and to stand up for rule of law," U.S. Secretary of State John F. Kerry said in Vienna as he joined ministers from around Europe and the Middle East to discuss a resolution to the long-running war in Syria.
Pope Francis called the killings part of a "piecemeal third World War."
The stunning coordinated assaults, which prompted French officials to step up security on the borders and declare a state of emergency, were the worst terrorist attack to hit Europe since the 2004 Madrid train bombings, which left 191 dead and 1,800 injured.
They are likely to fuel rising popularity of the far right, which has capitalized on anti-immigrant sentiment, and challenge generous attitudes toward the thousands of refugees streaming in from Syria that countries such as Germany have shown.
France's Muslim community braced for a potential backlash. After attacks in January on the offices of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, the country saw a spike in acts of anti-Muslim aggression, such as vandalism of mosques. France is home to the highest proportion of Muslims — 7.5% — of any country in Western Europe.
Friday's operation apparently began with a small extremist cell around Brussels, where French authorities believe the attack was planned and financed, according to two U.S. law enforcement officials who have been advised about the French investigation.
The French newspaper Le Monde reported the terrorists came from the Brussels suburb of Molenbeek, which has been a center for radical Islamists for several years — it was the home of a man who was recently thwarted before he could carry out a passenger-train massacre in Belgium.
French prosecutor Francois Molins said three teams of terrorists, carrying AK-47 assault rifles and wearing explosives vests with identical detonators, appeared to have carried out the attacks.
The bombs killed several of the attackers but only one bystander; the guns, on the other hand, wreaked carnage throughout the City of Light.
At 9:36, the SEAT pulled up to La Belle Equipe, a sidewalk café and restaurant on Rue de Charonne near the Place de la Bastille.
One witness, who identified himself only as Leo, described what followed as "apocalyptic."
From his apartment just above the scene, Leo said he heard an initial burst of about 50 extremely loud gunshots, followed by another. He looked out the window and saw a car stopped in the middle of the intersection
"Shards of glass were everywhere," he told RTL Radio. "People were screaming. ... It was an absolutely terrifying slaughter, with bodies spread across the ground."
When the shooting stopped, he said his wife ran outside to help. Dozens of people were lying on the ground in pools of blood. Someone told her there was a birthday party going on.
Nineteen people died there.
Four minutes later, another team of three attackers with AK-47 assault rifles stormed into the Bataclan concert hall, as some 1,500 people watched a band from Palm Desert called the Eagles of Death Metal.
They started shooting as panicked concertgoers scrambled for the exits or lay low to escape bursts of gunfire. Witnesses said the shooters reloaded several times and sustained the barrage for some 10 minutes.
Molins said 89 people died at the Bataclan. He said the attackers mentioned Syria and Iraq as they fired. When police entered the building, two of the terrorists detonated their suicide vests, and one was shot to death by authorities, he said.
"We are determined to find out who were the attackers, who were the accomplices," he said. "How they were financed."
One of the attackers at the Bataclan was a 29-year-old man who has been arrested eight times for "acts against the common good," but who had not been linked to terrorists, Molins said.
A second Frenchman was stopped and questioned at the Belgian border on Saturday. He had rented a black Volkswagen Polo driven by a man believed to be one of the gunmen who attacked concertgoers at the Bataclan, the prosecutor said.
NEWSLETTER: Get the day's top headlines from Times Editor Davan Maharaj >>
One of the victims was a 23-year-old design student at Cal State Long Beach. Nohemi Gonzalez of El Monte was part of an international exchange program at the Strate School of Design. Another American, Helen Jane Wilson, told the Associated Press she was shot in the leg and was heading into surgery at L'Hopital Saint-Antoine.
Wilson said she had lived in New Orleans before moving to Paris, where she runs Rock en Bol, a catering company. According to her Facebook page, Wilson is originally from Los Angeles.
Authorities across Europe moved swiftly Saturday to identify possible accomplices to the seven attackers, with Belgian authorities announcing they had made several arrests.
A spokeswoman for Belgian Justice Minister Koen Geens said authorities had arrested "several suspects," though it was not clear what connection, if any, they had to the attacks.
Geens said the arrests came after the rental car, with Belgian license plates, was seen close to the Bataclan, the magazine De Standaard reported.
U.S. law enforcement officials confirmed that several vehicles, particularly black sedans, have been identified in connection with the case, and that at least one was traced back to Brussels. One was found laden with high-powered weapons, they said; another had been rented.
The sources confirmed that one of the terrorists appeared to be a Syrian, based on his fingerprints and a Syrian passport found near his body. Several others, the sources said, are believed to have come from Iraq.
All of the terrorists who blew themselves up were wearing "vests or belts" heavy with detonators and metal fragments, such as "nails and ball-bearings," the sources said. Each of the suicide bombs appeared to have been built in a similar fashion and with identical components. Other terrorists were armed primarily with high-powered Russian-made Kalashnikov AK-47 rifles, they said.
"The French police were aware of at least one of them," said one of the sources, "and had been following him at times but did not think he was operational," that is, a potential terrorist.
"The others we don't think were on French police radar," the source said.
U.S. authorities believe the suicide blasts during a soccer game at the packed Stade de France, the national stadium just north of Paris, were meant to "send a statement" because the two teams participating — France and Germany — are Christian countries and because the French president was attending the match.
"But the killing of hostages at the theater was a slaughter," said one of the U.S. sources. "It was about a high kill number."
Islamic State said in a statement that "youth who divorced from the world and went to their enemy" had targeted "the hearts of the Crusaders" and unleashed "horror in the middle of their land."
It said the attacks were in retaliation for French airstrikes on Islamic State-controlled territory in the Middle East, and that France would remain at the "top of the list" of its targets.
French officials, including Hollande, have publicly blamed the attacks on Islamic State.
But the U.S. sources said the multiple sites and soft, crowded targets in the attacks are indicative of Al Qaeda rather than Islamic State. They stressed that authorities still are trying to pin down which organization was behind the attacks.
"Who planned this? Who paid for this?" said one source. "That's what we want."
Chu reported from Paris, Serrano from Washington and Mozingo and Finnegan from Los Angeles. Times staff writers Sarah Parvini and Alexandra Zavis contributed to this report.

What is your preschooler's major? Just kidding! With hundreds of majors out there for college students, it's more important than ever that we start exposing a variety of concepts to our early learners as soon as possible. By doing this we can help to develop early learners' creativity, curiosity, and enthusiasm for the world around them—and also get them started on the right track for college!
Organized by "major," this series will present a list of suggestions of easy, fun, and interactive/assisted activities for your early learner in the field of sciences, technology, humanities, and many more.
Note: The example photos below contain some choking hazard items. Be sure to alter activities with age appropriate materials if needed.
The Sciences Part 1
- Play "Huff and Puff" by having your early learner collect objects of different sizes, weights and shapes. Place each object in front of a fan in turn, and have your child sort which objects move from the wind from those that do not.
- Ask your child: Why did some objects move? Why didn't some objects move?
FYI, "Moves a lot" is a favorite ☺ --Try different fan speeds!
Engineering and Architecture
- Make and name a pet rock (or use another toy or item), and build a house for it with blocks, tools, or household items.
- This exercise introduces and enforces building skills and structural perception.
Atmospheric Science (Meteorology)
- Over a period of a month, have your child draw and color (or paste images printed off the internet) the weather of the day.
- This exercise improves descriptive vocabulary, weather, and time concepts.
Biology (Botany)
- Pull out a weed from the garden and place it on a flat surface.
- Ask your child a couple of the following questions:
- Which part needs the ground to live?
- Which part needs the sun?
- Which is the longest part?
- What is the shortest part?
- What do plants eat?
- Where does the water that plants eat come from?
These are just some of the thousands of ways to introduce your early learner to new experiences and concepts. In her VPK classroom at CCSWFL, Miss Angela uses boxes of different sizes to introduce students to the engineering concepts of structure and sequencing. Students place smaller boxes into larger ones, and also work together to stack the boxes to make towers. It's fascinating to watch Ja'Lia, who is normally one of our quietest students, jump to action in a leadership role for the stacking part of the project. We can see her confidence grow every time there is a similar activity. Now she even delegates smaller tasks to her fellow students!
Do you have any college majors that you'd like us to cover? Let us know in the comments!

Important victories on ACTA! Moving on to Final Steps | La Quadrature du Net - 0 views
shared by Gonzalo San Gil, PhD. on 31 May 12 - No Cached
Gonzalo San Gil, PhD. on 31 May 12[Submitted on 31 May 2012 - 08:53 ACTA copyright Karel De Gucht David Martin Marielle Gallo Brussels, May 31st 2012 - Votes were cast in three of the four parliamentary committees preparing the EU Parliament's final decision on ACTA. Citizens' concerns, as well as Internet innovators & start-ups' interests have been upheld in "Civil Liberties" (LIBE) and the "Industry" (ITRE) committees. Even the "Legal affairs" (JURI) committee, usually very conservative and keen to support repression on copyright issues, rejected Marielle Gallo's pro-ACTA opinion. Citizens should rejoice but keep up the pressure for the upcoming steps, up until the final vote scheduled for early July. A massive rejection of ACTA would create a political symbol of global scale.]

(*Author's note – I know, this was supposed to be posted last week. I waited trying to remember to take the pictures from The Boy's phone into the post. But now it's Wedding Wednesday again and The Boy is out on the town so wait no more… I guess what happens in Alliston, stays in Alliston.)
The night before for the Boy was slightly different than mine. He was a little stressed when I left him in the morning, but headed north for a round of golf with my dad, his dad, a groomsman, my brother, all of my uncles and a few of their wives. I think there were about 12 of them or so. He insists he was having a terrible round until about the 4th hole (coincidentally that is the hole my parent's live on) when he chugged a beer and things got much better from there.
The biggest inconvenience for the Boy around the whole wedding deal was its effect on his golf game. It went in the crapper for about 2 weeks before and he was not happy about it. Much beer was enjoyed by all, as I understand it – apparently my brother was incoherent by the time they were off the course and the Boy was not far behind him.
Dad planned a delicious Man Feast of steak, potatoes and Caesar Salad, and then they broke out into games of poker. Most of the groomsmen were able to join in the festivities by dinner time, which the Boy really appreciated – he was getting pretty nervous and they all ensured that with the help of some Steamwhistle they would take his mind right off his nervousness… I believe they succeeded.
It's difficult to tell who won the poker games since there seems to be prize presentation pictures with everyone that was there, but in the end, the Boy walked away with most if not all the money and both $50 gift cards to Golf Town – score!
By 1am my Dad took on the role of responsible adult and sent the boys to bed. I think a few heads were hurting in the morning.
The Boy wants everyone to know that he had an awesome day and night before. He was so appreciative to everyone that came to hang out with him. While he was excited to get married, he hates being in the spotlight especially in a church and he was really couldn't wait for the whole thing to be over! His number one fear was that he was going to pass out at the front of the church (he didn't).
1 more sleep for The Boy!

Syrian rebels repelled on Sunday a suicide attack by Islamic State militants on a military base near a border crossing into Iraq and a rebel convoy headed to the base, leaving at least four dead and several injured, rebel sources said.
The midnight attack on a heavily defended base near the al Tanf border crossing involved at least one explosive-laden vehicle that rammed an entrance to the base. At least two people were killed and scores wounded, a rebel source said.
The militants also staged a suicide attack on a convoy of rebel fighters from the Western-backed Osoud al Sharqiya rebel group, who had sent reinforcements from their outpost near the Rukban refugee camp further south-west. Two of their fighters were killed in the ambush.
Islamic State "staged a suicide attack and there were clashes inside Tanf. Two were killed and several injured. They also attacked our convoy but it's over and matters are under control," said a senior rebel source from Osoud al Sharqiya who requested anonymity.
U.S.-led coalition planes were involved in the operation, which went on into the early hours of dawn, to track down the militants who staged the hit-and-run attack and apparently fled, a rebel commander involved in the operation said.
Both Tanf and Rukban are near the joint Syria-Iraq-Jordan border. Osoud al Sharqiya, one of the main groups in that area fighting Islamic State militants, is part of the Free Syrian Army of rebels financed and equipped by a Western coalition.
Jordan, a U.S. ally, backs the moderate rebel groups aligned with the so-called Southern Front supported by an Arab-Western coalition, who trying to prevent opposition-held southern Syria from falling to Islamic State.
The rebels took the border crossing of Tanf last year from the ultra-hardline militants and tried unsuccessfully to drive the militants out of the Syrian border town of Bukamal on the Euphrates, further north-east, a major supply conduit for the militants between their strongholds in Iraq and Syria.
In recent weeks, the militants in the Syrian desert near the Jordanian border have regrouped further north to reinforce their Raqqa stronghold, after major defeats in Syria and Iraq.
Western intelligence sources have worried for months that militants fleeing from their main urban strongholds of Raqqa in Syria and Mosul in Iraq could find a safe haven in the region.
A Western intelligence source told Reuters that U.S. and British special forces are expanding the Tanf base to use it as a major launching pad for operations in coming months to oust militants from Bukamal, a major militant stronghold.
Diplomats say plans are underway to stage new coalition strikes on Islamic State fighters in the south, including an area to the west of the southern city of Deraa. Militants entrenched in the Yamouk River Valley near the Israeli border have recently made gains.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I received this book in exchange for an honest review (LoP or Lovers of Paranormal)
This book is very different than most paranormal books I've read. The synopsis is very vague, which only makes it more interesting since you really have no idea on what to expect. The author is very imaginative and you can really see it on every page. Everything is intricately described making it realistic enough for you to believe that it is indeed all true.
I just don't like Elizabeth's character which I think is underdeveloped. It looks like she was just inserted in the story so that the protagonist will have a love interest. The "fall in love" part is also unbelievable. It happens so fast that you would think it was done just to finish the story ASAP. Despite this, I would still recommend it to mystery/thriller/paranormal fans who wants a different/unique concept.

In true Atlantic Voice fashion, there's no single theme to this episode - instead Eric and Zeff weave through a "To Do" tray of various topics (all meaning a lot of links in paragraphs below..)
There's talk of DNA tracking, Zeff ponders employment with NASA, and Eric has some tips (and protective eyewear) for the upcoming solar eclipse. Delivery services and an experiment with a driverless cars are discussed, as well as talk on the World War II film, Dunkirk.
Listen on x2 speed (you have to listen to get that reference...)

Half of 2012 is almost over. For the past few months I've been desperately trying to get back to feeling like this again. I think I'm gradually getting there again, or at least, I'm making a better attempt at it.
Weekends are the best times for getting my act together. A stolen Saturday. A really good latte. Messy but healthy burgers at Grill'd.
Bento of the week is gyudon (beef bowl) with a half boiled egg and garlic long beans.
Something to look forward to? Masterchef is back on Australian tv (^__^).

Vibrating mascara, whatever will the beauty bods think of next? Vibrating foundation?! (Oh right, they already have…) You get my point. Vibrating mascara just screams gimmick to me, but as always with these things I was curious so when I was sent one to review I got testing immediately.
To be frank, my first impressions were pretty poor. The vibrations that buzz down the wand when you press a button on the lid not only do nothing to enhance application but they also make it pretty uncomfortable (vibrating eyeballs anyone?). I tried it out a couple of times to see if it might have just been me having a blonde moment, but I am still going to stick by the opinion that the vibrating feature is just not for me.
The mascara sans-vibration on the other hand, I love. The formula is light and smooth, so there is no clumping, but it still manages to coat lashes with a nice even layer that is noticeable yet not too dramatic for daytime.
So, vibrations aside this is a good mascara, but for £14.67 (currently on the Boots website) this is a really steep price to pay for a high street-brand mascara with a gimmick! For a few extra £££ you can splash out on a Dior Show or Lancome Hypnose, or save some money and go for one of Maybelline's other famous mascara's without the vibrations – I have heard the Collosal Volum' Express (£6.99 from Boots) is pretty impressive from the lovely Recessionista, you can read her review HERE.

The Career Fair at American River College was incredibly busy Thursday, as 31 different businesses packed a room in the student center and offered information about jobs and career options for places like the California Highway Patrol, Devry University, and Farmer's Insurance.
Kolleen Ostgard, interim president of student services said she saw "anywhere from 500 to 600 students" pass through the room, picking up pamphlets and talking to employers.
Stephanie Hall, a child development major, spent an hour and a half inside. She is a first semester student at ARC, and thought the event was very helpful.
"I've never been to a career fair before, and I liked it. It's nice to get to talk to these people face to face instead of, 'Fill out this application and wait for us to call you,'" said Hall. "And I actually got to fill out two applications for things they're hiring for now. A lot (of) what I heard was that they'll work with you until you get the degree, and then you can get the higher paying jobs … So it was very useful."
About half of the booths also offered information about opportunities for students while they went to school, like Sugar Bowl, the ski/snowboard resort, and University Enterprises, Inc., an organization with assistant positions for students throughout California. But the main focus was looking towards the future.
Ostgard said of the event, "We want to introduce ARC students to the opportunities that exist out in the working world, and to be familiar with what employers are looking for when they hire people. It's also a great networking opportunity, giving students a chance to talk to people about what they're studying, what they want to do when they're through with school, what the expectations are of our employers, and really get a sense of what career path is right for them."
Dante Loggins, a biomedical engineering major, was disappointed that the FBI could not attend as planned, due to the government shutdown.
"I was really looking forward to talking with them and finding out more about what they do, although I doubt they would have told me everything", said Loggins. He still found the event just as useful as Hall did, adding, "CalTrans has a lot of career options, and they're all non customer service, which is important to me."
The career center at ARC also holds workshops on résumé development and interviews.

Latest in air-cooled range qualifies for tax deductions under Enhanced Capital Allowance scheme
Tecumseh has expanded its Silensys range with a full line of Condensing Units, which can be purchased with three different types of compressor:
standard piston; high-efficiency rotary, which can give more than 20 per cent better COP than the standard; and high-efficiency scroll, which offers 10 per cent better COP.
Tecumseh says the standard version offers a plug & play solution that can decrease installation time by about 25 per cent over conventional installation.
ECA listing for the Scroll and Rotary range allows specifiers to claim back the first year's worth of tax paid, while enabling access to Carbon Trust loans if required.

Barrington Watch Winder Review With 10% Discount Code
Well if you don't know much about watch winders or you're new to the wristwatch game, here goes a simplified explanation.
Before we get into the reviewing process here is a 10% discount promo code: FADED10 from Barringtonwatchwinders.com exclusively for our audience.
The one we will be reviewing is the single winder from Barrington Watch Winders, Its a British brand with a product line that stretches from single winders, all the way up to dual, quad and multi watch winders. Some are even cased within bulletproof glass!
Featuring an ultra quiet Japanese motor, the single winder is available in seven signature colours; black, white, red, green, blue, orange and yellow. Coming with a slightly higher price tag, you can find their limited edition range that consists of premium wooden finishes such as GREY KOTO, OAK (UNVARNISHED)
Special Editions
Click here to have a look on all the exclusive colours
The Design
As for the dimensions, it's quite compact so will easily fit on shelves or desks, taking up less space than you'd expect. For people who have multiple single winders, the watch winder box allows you to store multiple watch winders in the most compact way possible. The other important thing about the winder is that it's very heavy which gives it a premium feel but not ideal for carrying with you while travelling.
In case you are wondering about how well will your watch fits on to the holder, you're provided with a standard cushion on Single Watch Winder range which will fit a wrist circumference of 19-24cm but they also provide 'Flex Cushion' which is much more versatile and can, therefore, fit wrist circumferences of 14-20cm, as well as larger models of watch.
Another important thing is to not confuse a Watch Winder to a simple Spinner
There are certain so-called lower priced "Automatic watch winders" on the market
Most of these are simply an ordinary watch storage box with a low-quality motor device attaches to it. These "spinner" gadgets should not be classified as "Automatic Watch Winders". These gadgets simply "spin" your watches continuously without any intervals.
While these low quality "watch winder spinners" could serve the purpose initially, the continuous use of these non-stop "spinners" will cause stress on your watch's internal mainsprings, and exert unnecessary torque pressure on the moving mechanism of your watch. All these would likely lead to loss of accuracy of your watches, causing the internal lubrication of the watch movement to wear out much faster, and would very likely shorten the lifespan of your watches.
Barrington Watch Winders operate on a principle of gentle rotation. these rotate for a minute before resting and then starting again for another minute, with the interval period determined by how many turns per day you have set, which can be set to 650, 750, 850 or 1000. To further protect your watch Barrington Watch Winders only operate for twelve hours in every twenty-four. This means the one-minute cycles will continue only over a twelve-hour period and for the next twelve hours the winder will at rest.
Sometimes (not always though) cheaper winders have noisier motors or become noisier over time.
That's not the case with the Barrington winder I have personally used. Although it's not completely silent, it's at a tolerable limit which is quite understandable given it has moving parts inside so it's unlikely it could ever be completely silent. Moreover, as it has a 12-hour rest interval in every 24 hours you can set it to in such a way so that it stays at rest during your sleeping schedule.
A watch winder is for automatic watches only, those that do not have a battery and do not need manual winding but keep going because of the motion of the watch on your wrist. Typically these are higher-end Swiss and German watches. So it provides an element of convenience. Leaving your watch in a winder ensures that when you come to wear it you can be confident that the time is correct and the watch can be immediately worn without the fuss of having to adjust the date or time.

Will you be dressing up tonight?
Or did you go out this weekend?
No dressing up for Spencer and I this year.
But I am more then happy to dress up
our little butterfly and hand out candy.
Halloween for us has always been a light hearted fun day
of dressing up and collecting candy.
Some families choose to close their doors and shut off the lights,
some go full force and decorate their homes like a haunted house.
Growing up we dressed up,
went trick or treating and ate candy.
Always passing off the Tootsie Rolls to Mom
and eating an apple after a few treats before bed.
It was always harmless fun.
(Except that time I lit my hair on fire with a candle....)
I plan to do the same here.
Nothing over the top,
but always an open door to the neighborhood kids
if we're able.
I think its a great way to meet the neighbours,
be friendly and be a light.
What is your take on the controversial holiday?
Consider reading this blog for a (perhaps different) perspective.
I cannot believe that this was a year ago!

Peerless Battle Spirit - Chapter 635
Chapter 635 - Geniuses' Gathering
As Princess Miao Miao continued to read the manual, the structure of the Martial Art slowly came into view inside Qin Nan's mind .
The art was known as the Disordered Ocean Art!
One would be granted the power to control waves like the ruler of the ocean upon full mastery of the Martial Art .
"The Sleeping Buddha Method from before and the Disordered Ocean Art now, the Princess must have tried very hard to find them . I shall collect more wines for her…"
Qin Nan mumbled to himself .
Following this, he was immersed in the process of comprehending the Disordered Ocean Art, and began to learn the Martial Art .
The eyes of Princess Miao Miao flickered as she observed that Qin Nan had begun to cultivate . Following this, she glanced at the Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise and said with a cold tone, "I know everything that happened in your Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom . I hope that you will try your best to assist Qin Nan—this is your chance . "
Despite being one of the Four Great Factions, helping Qin Nan was considered a mere 'chance' for them .
The Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise did not rebuke it, but nodded its head and said, "Princess, don't worry . The Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom has decided to be Qin Nan's ally . If he's in trouble, we will try our best to help!"
"Glad to hear that," Princess Miao Miao nodded her head and said calmly, "Soon, I'll become a Guest Elder of the Mu Clan, and I believe that you know how significant the position is within the Mu Clan, with extremely strict rules . "
The words startled the Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise .
If she became the Guest Elder of the Mu Clan . . .
That would be incredible!
Princess Miao Miao did not say anything else . She held her jaw with her palm and stared at Qin Nan while blinking her eyes . The screen began to twist and become faint slowly, but she continued to stare at him in silence, as if every second was incredibly precious .
The screen entirely disappeared, allowing the Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise to let out a sigh of relief .
It felt strange too, as it was once a half-Martial Monarch Realm presence, but it subconsciously felt intimidated facing the woman .
"This ancient Martial Art might be related to the Crimson Blood Ocean, which will serve as a great help to Qin Nan when he enters the place…"
The Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise mumbled to itself and glimpsed at Qin Nan, before closing its eyes .
It would probably take Qin Nan half a day to learn the ancient Martial Skill . It could make use of the time to take a small nap .
At that instant, Qin Nan's eyes suddenly sprang open .
A blue glow was emitted from his body, followed by the faint sound of waves, which became louder gradually, like the roar of an ocean .
"This is——"
The Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise wore an astonished face . It was even more shocked than previously when it had learned that the woman was from the Mu Clan!
Qin Nan had only spent less than the period it took an incense to burn to learn the ancient Martial Art!
Had he he really finished learning the ancient Martial Art that quick?
Even a tenth-grade Di ranked genius wouldn't be able to do that!
"Phew, I didn't expect to learn the ancient Martial Art this quick . " Qin Nan became excited as he mumbled, "If I'm guessing right, it's most likely due to the rank up of my cultivation, allowing the capabilities of the left eye of the divine God of Battle to grow stronger, thus increasing my Martial Skill Talent…"
Previously, he had been able to memorize the entire Martial Art by taking a glimpse with his eye .
Currently, following the rank up of his cultivation, it was easier for him to comprehend the secrets of Martial Skills!
"However, my cultivation is still too weak, and is unable to utilize the strength of the left arm of the divine God of Battle!"
Qin Nan glanced at his left arm .
He could not wait to witness the strength of his left arm, which was once Sacred Leader Qinglong . How destructive would the force be?
"Mm? Senior, what are you…"
Qin Nan was slightly startled . For some reason, the Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise had landed before him and was currently staring at him with its mouth wide open, as if it had seen a monster .
"No, nothing . Don't worry about it, it's really nothing…"
The Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise collected its thoughts and shook its head . It could never tell Qin Nan that a peak Martial Sacred Realm presence was completely dumbfounded by Qin Nan's Martial Skill Talent .
A rare occurrence took place at that instant .
Knock knock knock .
A series of knocks could be heard on the door .
Qin .
Qin Nan's figure instantly went to the door with full attention . His eyes were filled with a fierce look .
They had yet to stumble into any familiar faces in the Disordered Ocean City . Who could it be? Jiang Bilan?
Filled with doubts, he reached out his hand and opened the door . The Phoenix Soul-Consuming Fire was gathered in his body . If there was any surprise, he could easily unleash his attack .
The Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise squinted its eyes too .
"Master Duan Qing, I'm a servant of the City Lord's Mansion . I'm here on behalf of the City Lord to invite you to the Geniuses' Gathering!" Outside the door stood a silver-plated guard holding his hands together . He clearly knew that the young man before him was ranked thirty-third on the Hidden Dragon Ranking!
"You know me?"
Qin Nan's eyes flickered coldly .
If he wasn't mistaken, from the moment he had entered the Disordered Ocean City, the Luan Clan had most likely been spying on him .
The silver-plated guard could feel his body shivering . He had expected Qin Nan to be enraged, but even with his mouth opened, he could not say a single word, as if his tongue was tied into a knot .
This man . . . his gaze alone was extremely terrifying . Even the Three Stars of the Trading Alliance could not be compared to him!
"What is the Geniuses' Gathering?" Qin Nan's gaze became calm . He had no reason to trouble a guard who was only here to deliver a message .
"Each time the Crimson Blood Ocean becomes accessible, the City Ocean becomes accessible, the City Lord's Mansion will hold a gathering for the geniuses of the Four Great Factions and other famous rogue cultivators to meet one another and discuss Martial Arts…"
The guard explained .
Qin Nan immediately came to a realization . The City Lord's Mansion was using this chance to build a connection with the geniuses .
"Master Duan Qing, you might want to know this—Zhu Hang and the Three Stars of the Trading Alliance, and the disciples of the Wanxiang Pavilion and the Dao-Seeking Mountain have arrived…" The guard hesitated for a while before saying while clenching his teeth .
"Zhu Hang? The Three Stars? Disciples of the Dao-Seeking Mountain and the Wanxiang Pavilion?"
Qin Nan was startled hearing this .
"Thanks . "
Qin Nan flicked a pill into the guard's hand with a flick, who became joyful and expressed his gratitude . He handed Qin Nan the invitation before leaving the place .
"This Zhu Hang and the Three Stars, I've heard of them . They are all on the Hidden Dragon Ranking . If I'm not mistaken, this Zhu Hang is quite an outstanding one, who possesses a ninth-grade Di ranked Martial Spirit . I believe he's in the top fifteenth on the rankings . " The Kingdom Protector Black Tortoise said .
Qin Nan wore a grin .
The succession of the Crimson Blood Ocean had yet to appear, but the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon Ranking from the Four Great Factions were already here?
"Let's take a look then!"
Qin Nan made up his mind .
He was keen to witness the strength of Zhu Hang, the Three Stars, and the other geniuses!

It Was A Wasted Gift
>> Thursday, February 21, 2008
A little over a year ago Doug & I were discussing what to get his mother as a Christmas gift. After much discussion we decided to connect the computer we had given her a few years before to the internet. Our thought was that we would be able to keep in touch with her that way.
So I began the task of choosing an ISP. I had to find one that would work in her remote area and wouldn't cost us too much- just in case she didn't use the service. I chose a dial up internet account for the basic reason that it was inexpensive and they had a local phone number.
When we told Doug's mom about her gift she was so excited. We got the necessary hardware (the computer didn't have a modem) and set it up for her. Then we walked her through how to use email, how to get online and the other fun aspects of life on the World Wide Web.
We left happy thinking that we would be able to email photos and little notes about the girls activities to Doug's mom and be able to keep in touch more. We were even discussing how, if she really liked being so connected, we could look into high speed broadband ISP deals to speed things up for her.
You can probably see where this is going… We never got an email from her and all of our missives went unanswered. We were worried that something had gone wrong with the setup so we had Doug's brother check the situation when he was visiting.
The verdict: her husband didn't like her to be online. Yep, he didn't say a word while we were there and let us spend about $100 on hardware and sign a one year contract for service and then he wouldn't let her use it.
As you can imagine I was a bit annoyed because of the wasted money. And the fact that I had to wait a year to cancel a non-used account. Which is not so easy; companies will do about anything to get you to keep your account. I ended up telling them that Doug's mom was in a nursing home and couldn't have a computer.
