Leather Pipe Satchel & Pouch
A leather satchel is likely the oldest and most classic pieces of luggage ever made. In fact, leather satchels are often discovered as artifacts in archaeological excavations.
In 1991, Otzi, 'The Iceman' was discovered by two Austrian hikers in the Ötztal alps. After carbon dating and studies it was determined that he died about 5300 years ago. One of the items that was found with him was a small leather satchel (still intact) which contained some herbs and a few small tools. This says a few things:
- The leather satchel is a classic functional pouch used for thousands of years
- Leather is one of the most durable natural materials available
- Otzi had great taste
The Vanderburgh Pipe Satchel is a classic. Perfect for those hikes into the woods when it's time to regain your life's focus. It will fit everything you need for that 4 hour hike, or that fly fishing trip. It will fit
compact binoculars, a camera, your pipe and some tobacco. Toss a couple of loose cigars in it. It will perfectly cradle a 6 oz hip flask and your finest scotch.
It's easy to carry with it's removable leather shoulder strap. Clip your satchel to your golf bag and toss a few cigars in it. Or fasten it to loops on your saddle bags on your motorcycle. It has built-in versatility that will surprise you.
Last summer I went on a canoe trip to Northern Minnesota, USA. In my satchel I fit toothpaste, a toothbrush, deoderant, bug spray, knife, flint, and all the necessities for my travels.
The Adventurer's Satchel is Functional.
Not too big. Not too small. It has a special flap that unbuttons on both sides, allowing easy access and revealing the hidden pockets. It has a cleverly designed front pocket designed to hold a 6 oz hip flask and your finest scotch.
Filled Dimensions:
- Tall: 8"
- Width: 5.5"
- Thickness: 2"
The Adventurer's Satchel is Individualistic and Rugged.
It doesn't look like a man-purse. It's masculine and versatile. Available in three leather colors - Cafe Brown, Natural Tobacco, and Chestnut. It will look better and better year after year.
The Explorer's Satchel is Tough.
It's made it from the best full grain cowhide and lined with pig skin (the second toughest leather on the planet). Stitched with marine-grade thread. Aside from the stitching, it is completely made of leather. Your friends will envy your leather satchel.
The Leather Pipe Satchel & Pouch is Intelligently Designed.
It has a rounded profile allowing a great fit for a pair of compact binoculars. Special pockets under the lid can carry functional items like lighters or cigar cutters.

Festive Entertaining Guide: Desserts
The holidays offer bakers a chance to blend classical flavors in modern-day desserts.
That's exactly what Jordan Conner, pastry chef of Hotel Valley Ho in Scottsdale, did when creating two gluten-free desserts for Food & Drink's 2013 "Festive Entertaining" series and cookbook.
One is chocolate trifle with coconut whipped cream and hazelnut brittle. The "chocolate" is made with black beans.
The other is pumpkin bars with cream-cheese frosting. The bars are made with rice flour instead of wheat flour.
The result: atypical desserts that meet the holiday standard for decadence.
"The key in creating new desserts is to update traditional flavors with different ingredients. If you don't tell anyone the chocolate is black bean, they won't know. The taste is the same," Conner said. (We tasted, and agree.)
Unlike cooking, baking is unforgiving. Follow recipes exactly and avoid substituting ingredients. Follow these general tips for holiday baking:
Cookies bake evenly on an unrimmed baking sheet.
To keep cookies from sticking to your baking sheets, line them with parchment paper or invest in a reusable silicone liner.
To keep cookies the same size, try a small ice-cream scoop for measuring out dough.
When doing marathon baking, slip baggies over your faucet handles. This keeps the handles clean of dough particles during repeated hand and dish washings.
Put leftover undecorated sugar, molasses or chocolate cookies in a food processor to make crumbs for a future cookie crust. Store in plastic bags in the freezer.

Chapter 1 : A Terrible Accident
|Rating: Mature
|Chapter Reviews: 44
Background: Font color:
Stunning chapter image made by Anna_Black at TDA!
The flash of green light flew past his ear as Ron leaped from its path. He responded to his attacker with a flash of varied colors from his trembling wand. The brawny death eater dove from his path, and Ron shortly swore under his breath in frustration. Noticing the cease in fire, he sprinted through the rotting walls of the dilapidated country estate, frantically searching for his comrades.
This had turned into a nasty raid. Ron placed a dirty hand on his nose as he felt a warm liquid trickle down his lips, then lifted his head to the shouts of screams in the distance echoing off the walls.
With the fall of Voldemort, most of his most loyal followers had been tried in court; some were executed, and some were spared. Of the few that were placed back into society, a group of still loyal followers banded together, still acting on their ancient dark ways. They attacked muggleborn wizards, plumaged houses, and left simmering dark marks over vacated premises. The auror department had a partial job of tracking the dark wizards, and taking them out. Earlier this morning, Harry, who had elevated to the department head, received a tip that one of the contingencies of death eaters had set up their main operating quarters in an abandoned farm estate property in surrey. Harry took his best team of aurors with him, which included himself, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood, Ernie Macmillan, and Dean Thomas.
The team had reached the estate when twilight was beginning to settle over the fields, and they disbanded to search for the convicts. Hermione wanted to check the inside of the premise quickly, for fear of an ambush. Just as the team entered the first hall, a group of five death eaters sprang upon them, firing dozens of unforgivable curses. As dust from the crumbling walls hung in the stale air blinding them, Ron had frantically searched for Hermione, and saw her battling with a bearded death eater. His fellow comrades were all engaged in combat, with various spells shooting like fireworks from their wands. Ron was suddenly jumped upon by another death eater, and quickly settled into a battle of his own. He chased the billowing black cloak through crumbling halls and sinister paintings, throwing various disarming spells into the darkened night. Suddenly, he lost sight of the death eater, and slowed to a halt to catch his breath.
Ron refocused his thoughts on the battle before him. He continued through the halls, crimson blood trickling from his nostrils, in search of his friends.
His heart leaped as he whipped around to face a disheveled Harry.
"Harry! Where are the others?"
Ron saw his chest heaving, revealing that he had just been running, or sprinted to reach him.
"I'm not sure. Ernie and Dean just captured two, and Neville and Luna are winning against the others. But we still have to find their leader, Wallace."
The two lifted their wands as a crash echoed through the halls. After realizing it was far off, Ron whipped his nose once more and turned back to Harry.
"Where is she, Harry?"
He watched as Harry looked away for a brief moment, and faced him once more.
"She took off after Wallace."
Ron swore under his breath again, and stared at the blood streaks on his fingertips.
"I told her not to go off alone. Doesn't she know she could get hurt?"
Harry sighed.
"It's Hermione, Ron. You of all people know how stubborn she is."
"We have to find her. Now."
Harry and Ron began turned to run down the tattered halls, following the crashes and shattering sounds that randomly exploded past them.
Ron's mind was racing as they sped through the halls. Hermione was truly the most stubborn person that he had ever known. He would try to protect her from the dangerous and unpredictable raids, and beg her to stay near the others or himself, and not wander off alone: but Hermione would never listen to his pleas. She wanted to be just as a part of the action as the others were.
He considered their relationship to be exclusive, for the most part. They knew each had feelings for one another since the scene during the final battle, and things had just evolved from there. They were seeing each other, even though no formal question had been asked. So, Ron considered Hermione his girlfriend, and therefore felt that he had an obligation to protect her in these heated raid scenes.
"Harry! Ron!"
The two abruptly turned to face Luna and Neville.
"Where's Dean and Ernie?" shot Harry through forced intakes of breath.
"They've got four tied up outside, and under watch," answered Luna.
Ron pushed past Harry.
"And Hermione? Is she with them?"
He watched Luna and Neville turn to face one another for a small moment, and then Neville brought his eyes to Ron.
"We don't know. She went after the leader a while ago, and we haven't seen her since."
Ron placed his dirty hands on his sides after softly moaning under his breath.
"Alright everyone," said Harry, "Wallace is the last one left, since the others are tied up outside. Let's stay together, and go find them."
The group of four began to walk with a quickened pace down the corridors once more, peering in empty rooms for a sign of their missing comrade. Ron focused on Luna's blonde hair swishing side to side as if it was a pendulum as his mind raced.
What if something happened to her? He shuddered at the mere thought.
A resounding crash suddenly echoed from the floorboards underneath them. Without speaking, they fled towards the staircase, and thundered down the creaking stairs. What was waiting for them below was a vivid image from Ron's most heinous nightmares: Hermione was dueling the head death eater alone.
Sparks of red, blue and green flew throughout the room, and protective spells shot in intensified spheres. Ron watched as Hermione ducked past the deatheater's various curses, and flung a few of her own in his direction.
Hermione's face was livid in concentration was she shot another spell.
Her spells narrowly missed the snarling death eater.
Ron, his wand at the ready, began to charge down the stairs in her aid. He turned suddenly when Harry grabbed his arm.
"Ron, she won't want help-"
"I don't care Harry. She needs help, or else she could get killed."
He nodded to Harry before he turned towards the duel. With his arm extended, he sped towards Hermione. She turned towards him for an instant, and whipped another
spell at Wallace.
"RON! I don't need your help! I can do this by myself!" she shouted.
He ducked as a red curse shot past his ear.
"Don't be so bloody proud Hermione! Let me help you!"
Ron stood silently as he watched Hermione block the curses that shot towards them.
"Alright Hermione," he muttered as he began to back away, knowing she couldn't hear him.
He joined the others silently back on the stairs across the room. Ron lowered his eyes from Harry's "I told you so" glance and turned back to the battle scene. His innards twisted in knots as the duel commenced, with even more furry than before.
"She has the upper hand, you know," reminded Luna in her whimsical tone.
Ron grunted as he crossed his arms over his firm chest.
"If she doesn't advance any further within the next two minutes, we're intervening," he spat.
Everyone stared mesmerized in sheer silence as the battle raged on. Luna, however, was right. Hermione was winning; the death eater's spells began to lessen, and his looked visibly more tired. Hermione seemed to unstoppable, he eyes wild with confidence and rage.
The turn of events changed within a second. Suddenly, the death eater lost all looks of exhaustion, and shot a powerful curse at his enemy. Hermione was instantly thrown to the hard ground, and her wand rolled out of sight. After realizing what had just occurred, she pushed herself up to face the others in terror. Before any of the horrified aurors could react, the death eater threw them an evil smirk, and pointed his wand and a fallen Hermione.
Hermione fell silently to the floor, her chestnut curls landing in tangles around her still frame.
Hi readers!
First, I would like to apologize for not updating my other stories very often this summer. I honestly have never been this busy before. College applications and essays are taking over my life:( I know that being busy is a common excuse, but it's the truth!
So moving on to this story! I came up with this idea while on my recent vacation. While working on my essays, this idea popped right into my head, and I opened up microsoft word and wrote this chapter. This is going to be much more humorous and light hearted compared to my other stories:)
I promise that I will work on Just Decide and Trapped On Titanic's next chapters whenever I have the chance!
Please tell me what you thought.....Review! It only takes a few seconds:)

Recently MYHT held its annual parent orientation. The topic of the night was "Keeping our students spiritually safe." The focus of the night was to review the call of the gedolim at Citi Field to protect our children from the dangers of the Internet. The importance of this message cannot be overstated, especially at the beginning of the school year. Yam HaTorah rebbeim work so hard to inculcate within the students the proper values, and it would be a shame for those lessons to be blocked from penetrating the heart due to inappropriate material seen or read on the Internet.
The menahel, Rabbi Avram Pollak, spoke about the Mesivta's commitment to providing the students with a safe environment where they can grow to their maximum potential. He went further to explain that the goal of the Mesivta is to create a ben Torah, a person whose attitude and feelings are molded by the Torah. Rabbi Pollak explained how what a student does out of school really does affect his mindset in school. He quoted the famous Mishnah in Avos, "Mitzvah goreres mitzvah v'aveirah goreres aveirah." One aveirah drags us and pulls us towards the next one. He called on the parents to partner together with the Mesivta in making sure their children are provided with a consistent environment both in and out of school.
The night was further enhanced by a speech from Rav Eliezer Feuer, rav of the Young Israel of Bayswater. Rabbi Feuer spoke about how technology is not letting us live. People spend all day e-mailing, texting, and reading the news and barely have time to focus on themselves and their own growth. He called on the parents to choose life for their kids and get them used to a more productive lifestyle. He went further to say that it is ultimately the parents who really hold the greatest influence on their kids, and they must not just rely on the yeshivos to ensure their sons' success.
The night closed with a speech from the Judaic principal, Rabbi Eli Zoldan, who outlined to the parents some of the Mesivta's policies toward cell phones, internet, and social networking. He further drove the point home by quoting the famous Gemara, "If you meet the yetzer ha'ra, draw him to the beis medrash." Why must one draw him to the beis medrash? In a different Gemara it says, "I created the yetzer ha'ra and I created the Torah as an antidote to it."
"Why does it not suffice just to learn Torah if you meet the yetzer ha'ra? It is not enough just to learn Torah to beat the yetzer ha'ra but you must also be in a safe environment. That is our Mesivta's commitment." The parents left feeling relieved they are leaving their kids in good hands, and were excited for the coming year.

The first Chevy Camaro television commercial can still be seen on YouTube. It features a white Camaro RS/SS with the distinct bumble-bee nose band emerging from a volcano. The voice over proudly introduces "The fiery new Camaro from Chevrolet … something you have actually never ever seen before."
While engineers and designers feverishly worked overtime on the advancement of a four-passenger sports car they code-named the F-car, the Chevy public relations, marketing and advertising group prepared the world for the intro of a car they called the Panther.
All through the summer season of 1965 practically every aspect of the vehicle's design and development, from preliminary design sketches to clay models, was photographed and thoroughly documented. Chevy utilized the possessions to produce a 30 -minute movie The Camaro for sale in Crowell TX , which was later shown on TELEVISION and in cinema. They likewise presented women's clothes called the Camaro Collection as well as a Camaro road race video game.
Classic Camaros- Buy Them Here
In November, Chevy sales executives and innovative people previewed prototype models at the GM Tech Center. Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's venerable advertising agency, immediately began work on brochures, direct-mail advertising and sales promo materials, along with print, outdoor and TV/radio advertising. In April 1966, at the New York Auto Show Interview, Chevrolet sales executives admitted no name had been selected for the new automobile, but did announce that rates of 1967 Chevy Camaro for sale in Crowell TX design will remain in the Corvair-Chevy II range.
Throughout early 1966 Chevy agonized over a name for its Mustang-killer. GM's upper management fidgeted about the aggressive connotations of the Panther name. A similar bout of cold feet would later trigger the Pontiac variation, code named the Banshee, to be renamed Firebird. Over its brief life time, the F-car had actually been called by numerous names including Wildcat, Chaparral, Commander and Nova. It's likewise rumored that Chevy thought about utilizing the letters "GM" in the name, and created G-Mini, which progressed into GeMini and lastly Gemini. Nevertheless, GM's upper management vetoed the concept, fearing the vehicle might be a failure.
Automotive legend has it that someone at Chevrolet finally proposed the name Camaro and upper management rapidly concurred. Although the name has no real meaning, GM scientists supposedly discovered the word in a French dictionary as a slang term for "pal" or "companion." It's reported that Ford Motor Company scientists also found other definitions, consisting of "a shrimp-like creature" and an arcane term for "loose bowels."
Because a number or pre-launch materials had already been launched using the Panther name, Chevy's most pressing obstacle was to now rename their brand-new Mustang killer, the Camaro. Camaros are found in Crowell TX by looking for classic car dealers.

Q I am returning to the UK with my American wife after many years living in the US. We have owned a home in the US but never in the UK, and wondered if we would still qualify as first-time buyers in the UK? MO
A As far as lenders are concerned, yes, you probably do qualify as first-time buyers as you haven't previously had a mortgage in the UK. However, if you were hoping that you will qualify for the stamp duty land tax (SDLT) exemption for first-time buyers (due to come to an end on 26 March 2012), I'm afraid you are going to be disappointed.
Only buyers who have never owned property (in Britain or anywhere else in the world) are eligible for exemption from SDLT on properties costing £250,000 or less. As you have owned property in the US, that counts you out.

Hugh Grant is no stranger to the romantic comedy genre. In the romantic holiday classic Love Actually, Grant plays the newly elected British Prime Minister with this ensemble film that has interconnected stories.

The Christmas theme is a nice touch for many but does not mean this one is just for watching during the holidays. This series of overlapping mini plotlines cross over in hilarious and touching ways to satisfy watchers of any gender all year round.

This little indie film grew from a $5 million project into one of the highest grossing romantic comedies of all time, all because of positive word-of-mouth. If anything, this movie shows what a little help from a happy audience can do to promote worthy romantic comedies.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding is a unique story about a young Greek woman who falls in love with a non-Greek, creating complications for her family in approving her new beau. This film was cleverly written and features a top-notch ensemble cast with stars like Nia Vardalos, John Corbett, and Joey Fatone.

Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan are wonderful in this romantic comedy about the trials and tribulations of friendships between men and women. Many people can identify with the problems characters Harry and Sally are having: two great friends who don't want to mess up their friendship by adding sex into the mix.

Ryan's restaurant scene is one of the most recognizable scenes in movie history. College graduates, city goers, and otherwise platonic friends will especially enjoy this relatable film by director Rob Reiner.

There's Something About Mary is a Farrelly Brothers movie that expresses a hilarious tale of love, jealousy, and persistence. Ben Stiller stars as a shy yet lovable loser who never gets over the love of his life, Mary (Cameron Diaz).

Everyone can identify with having a dream girl or guy in high school, and this movie takes you back with a tale of the geeks, popular girls and a little bit of adoration.

Note: Hair gel will never be looked at the same way after checking out this comedy.

Meet the Parents is arguably more American comedy than romance and is a great movie that addresses the feeling of anxiety and that what-can-go-wrong nervousness for the groom-to-be. To the character's dismay, and the audience's pleasure, everything goes hilariously wrong, starting with a terrible first introduction to the potential in-laws.

The DVD for Meet the Parents is worth the watch alone, simply for the opportunity to watch Robert De Niro lose it while filming his scenes with Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller. This romantic comedy gem was so well-received, it spawned two sequels and Little Fockers.

Helen Hunt won an Academy Award for her portrayal of a hard-working single mom and waitress who is the target of unwanted, obsessive attention from a dysfunctional, anti-social, romance novelist, played by Jack Nicholson in an Oscar-winning performance.

This film will have you smile by the end due to its magical screenplay. As Good as It Gets is a drama that has been nominated multiple awards such as the Academy Award for Best Actor and The Academy Award for Best Picture. With a great supporting cast, including Greg Kinnear and Cuba Gooding Jr., As Good As It Gets truly is as good as it gets.

The Wedding Singer is an irresistible romantic comedy, teaming Adam Sandler with Drew Barrymore, and features a classic cameo by rocker Billy Idol. This movie features the trope of the broken-hearted nice guy trapped in an ironic job: a wedding singer. When abandoned at the altar by his former fiance, he loses all hope. That is, until things develop with Julia.

Set in the '80s, the film features some of the same music you hoped you had never heard again, but in this film, it doesn't seem as bad as you remembered. What makes this movie special is Sandler and Barrymore would later re-team for the less memorable romantic comedies such as 50 First Dates and Blended. Fans of the 80's will love this film.

Best friends Julianne Potter (Julia Roberts) and Michael O'Neil (Dermot Mulroney) make a pact to marry if they are still single at age 28. Julianne is getting close to her birthday, and it is time to make a move.

This film features classic hits like "I Say a Little Prayer" and is a classic rom-com and summer movie from the 90's. Fans of comedies and musicals will love this relatable concept of friends who have made a romantic pact as children. Cameron Diaz co-stars as Michael's fiancée who has the unenviable task of competing with Julianne for Michael's love.

A bit of an underrated gem, Ewan McGregor and Cameron Diaz star in A Life Less Ordinary, an entertaining film that mixes romance, comedy, and karaoke with angels masquerading as hit men.

This movie came and went quickly in theaters, but it is worth a look for those who like a little bit of fantasy mixed in with their romance. Different from the classical stories of romance, this science fiction romance is great for those who enjoy an unexpected thrill.

Another romantic drama featuring Hugh Grant, the amorous Englishman meets a gorgeous American at a wedding creating a delightful and humorous plot. This British contemporary film explores the idea that love can be discovered even if you were, deliberately, not planning on it.

This amazing cast and the intelligent script has an amusing storyline and makes Four Weddings and a Funeral a must-see and must-own romantic comedy.

Twin Baby Wall Mounted Porcelain Sink
We recently posted what we believed to be the world's smallest sink, but we think we've found a less homely contender for the title after running into this "petite" Twin Baby Wall Mounted Porcelain Sink. Just 11" wide, a foot deep and 4" in height, the footprint of this wash basin is almost as small as a large bar of soap! We hope there isn't a match toilet and bath tub.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp: We could have played much better
Jurgen Klopp admitted he was unhappy with Liverpool's performance after they fell to a 2-0 defeat away to Premier League leaders Leicester City.
After a lively but goalless opening period at the King Power Stadium the visitors succumbed to two Jamie Vardy goals in 11 minutes. The striker broke the deadlock after 60 minutes with a stunning 25-yard volley before taking his season's league tally to 18, reacting fastest after Shinji Okazaki had a shot saved by Simon Mignolet.
Klopp acknowledged the quality of Vardy's opener but the manager felt his team had been below-par on the night as they dropped to eighth in the table while the Foxes remained three points clear of Manchester City at the summit.
"It's rare a journalist says something more positive than the manager," Klopp told the BBC's Match of the Day.
"I'm not too fine with our game today. We could have played much better. We had a few shots where we could pass and a few passes where we could shoot. We created half-chances but not real chances."
He said of Vardy's long-range effort: "It was a world-class goal from Jamie Vardy. Today would have been a good day to show we are ready for this. I need a few more seconds to calm down. I have to watch it again."
Liverpool rarely threatened and Christian Benteke had another anonymous outing from the bench to further cast doubt over his suitability in Klopp's team.
The German felt his players could have taken something from the game but ultimately their decision making cost them.
"We had opportunities in the box but we didn't find the right decision often enough," he told a news conference. "The longer the game was we didn't get cooler, the decisions didn't get better. We had the ball in their box and didn't shoot.
"One second later Vardy shoots from 35 yards and the ball was in. This says most about the game. I don't feel too good."

Olympic Stars - Roman Sebrle
Roman Sebrle is as tough as they come and he will put his body on the line in the decathlon.
By Paul Higham
Last Updated: 08/08/08 2:46pm
In the toughest of all the track and field disciplines, only the very strongest can claim the glory, and so the fact that Roman Sebrle is the man to beat as he looks to retain his Olympic title shows what a special athlete he is.
With decathletes facing two gruelling days of all-round action, several, if not all, excel in one particular faction of the event either being speedsters who struggle with the power events or musclemen finding it tough to get their legs moving on the track.
Czech athlete Sebrle though manages to combine speed and strength with the obvious skill to master the more technical events on offer - with also a near-unlimited reserve of stamina needed to get through the ordeal and emerge with the gold.
33-year-old Sebrle started out as a high jumper but after switching to the decathlon he has moved to another level and will head to Beijing as the reigning European, World and Olympic champion and the world record holder.
First going over 8,000 points in 1996, Sebrle came ninth at the World Championships in Athens a year later and also claimed his first medal with a bronze in the heptathlon at the World Indoor.
A silver at the European Indoor in 2000 was followed by a silver at the Sydney Olympics where he only narrowly lost out to Estonian star Erki Nool.
12 months later Sebrle stepped it up another notch as he set a new world record and became the first man to go beyond the 9,000-point mark as he posted 9,026 in Gotzis.
A first decathlon gold inevitably came at the 2002 European Championships and after a silver at the worlds he claimed Olympic gold in 2004 in Athens by breaking Daley Thompson's 20-year-old Games record with 8,893 points.
A second European gold in Gothenburg in 2006 maintained his standing as the best around but it could have all ended in January 2007 when he suffered a terrifying injury when a javelin hurled 55 metres by South African Sunette Viljoen landed in Sebrle's shoulder.
A stunned Czech ripped out the spear and remarkably he escaped with just 11 stitches when a puncture just one centremetre higher could well have ended his career while a bit either higher or lower could have caused a far more serious injury.
Sebrle recovered well and just seven months later he lifted World Championship gold for the first time in Osaka, Japan, to complete his set of major medals.
Now holding all three big golds, and the world and Olympic records, it will take a huge effort from challengers such as American Brian Clay to stop Sebrle joining British great Thompson and American Bob Mathias in successfully defending the Olympic decathlon title.

Reserves Go Mad
A strong Blackpool reserve team ran out clear winners last night against rivals Burnley.
I use the word 'clear' lightly, 7-1 isn't that good a result; it's only six goals different!
The main talking point, surprisingly considering Blackpool scored SEVEN, was the referee again after he sent off Burnley's goalkeeper after just 18 minutes (explains the six goal margin!)

Man United take blame for ticket prices
QPR fans have been outraged at the charge of £40.00 for their tickets to the Carling Cup clash with giants Manchester United. It seemed to suggest to many that, because Rangers were now charging exorbitant prices for so-called "category A" matches, it would be alright to charge Rs fans the same high prices for away matches.
The price of £40.00 for adults was particularly galling since Rs fans were charged only £15.00 for similar tickets for the Aston Villa cup game.
It had been reported that Manchester United had offered the QPR Directors the option of taking tickets at a lower price but that the Rs` Directors turned this offer down. But now the official QPR website are reporting that that, reported in a national newspaper, was a "misleading report".
The official website now claims that the decision to charge £40.00 for tickets was taken by the Manchester United Directors solely and that the QPR Directors were not consulted at any stage. United are apparently charging their normal matchday price for non-members for the East Stand Upper Tier, where the Rs have been given an allocation of 6,000 tickets.
The article concludess that Manchester United, along with QPR, are happy to set the record straight on this matter. Perhaps they could also explain to fans why it seems that the only way to buy tickets is through Ticketmaster who are charging an additional £7.50 booking fee?
Are Manchester United within their rights to charge such a high price for this 4th round tie? Or are they just taking advantage of QPR because of the recent hype surrounding the latest price rises at our club?
Let us know your thoughts!

He saw siphoning gasoline as a way to make a few bucks.
The 37-year-old Spanaway man is accused of first siphoning gas from his neighbor's pickup truck but the neighbor caught on and bought a locking gas cap.
His next attempt was to puncture a hole in the pickup's gas tank and place a bucket beneath it to collect the draining gas.
The neighbor had had enough. He called Pierce County sheriff's deputies out to investigate and told them he believed it was his neighbor. Another neighbor offered to show deputies surveillance footage that allegedly showed the man walking back and forth between his home and the neighbor's pickup truck.
A deputy went to the man's house to talk to him and spotted a bucket of gasoline sitting out front.
While being interviewed, the man "indicated that he and his wife had fallen on hard times and needed to steal (his neighbor's) gasoline in order to survive," according to court records.
The man stole an estimated $50 in gasoline. It cost $1,094 to repair the punctured fuel tank of his neighbor's pickup truck.
Prosecutors charged the man with third-degree theft and second-degree malicious mischief. He has not yet been arraigned.

Cork City expecting "tough" encounter against holders Crusaders
CORK City boss Tommy Dunne are hoping to build on their impressive opening round victory over Cliftonville when they take on reigning Setanta Sports Cup champions Crusaders at Turner's Cross tonight (kick-off 7.45)
Crusader's currently lie second in the Irish League table and Cork boss Tommy Dunne is under no illusions as to the gravity of the task his team faces in this evening's quarter-final.
"Crusaders are in second place in the Irish League and they will be tough opposition," he said.
"They are the holders of the competition and they are going very well again this season.
"I remember facing them on a number of occasions throughout my playing career, and they are a club with history and a good tradition."
"They will be a tough, strong team, and they will have no fear at all coming down here.
"I would imagine they will be favourites over the two legs, considering they are the holders and the fact that they have the majority of their season behind them, so we know we are in for a good test.
"We are representing our league, as well as our city and our club, and I think it will be a game worth watching."
The Rebels will be without John Dunleavy is still ruled out following tonsillitis, while Brian Lenihan is continuing his recovery from a groin injury. Kalen Spillane is suspended following his sending off in the second leg against Cliftonville.

GEORGETOWN — On a historic evening, the Georgetown Lady G-Men kept their 2015 season alive with a rout of Finneytown in the sectional playoffs.
Although the game was much closer than the scoreline showed, the Lady G-Men's finishing proved to be the difference as they defeated the Lady Wildcats, 4-0, at Georgetown High School on Monday, October 19.
Senior Cheyenne Dunseith scored a pair of goals and, while freshman duo Lauren Carter and Amaya Lovell each scored a goal and had an assist.
"Overall it was a good win. It always feels good to beat a team 4-0, especially a team like Finneytown who is playing top teams in the city," Lady G-Men head coach Ashley Silvis-Corbin said.
The Lady G-Men entered the evening hosting their first sectional playoffs match since 2003, and they quickly imposed themselves on the game, controlling the tempo and keeping the ball in their attacking half of the field. Midway through the first half, although the game began to even out, possession-wise, Lovell found space down the right wing and crossed into the middle, where Carter's far-post run met the ball and stabbed it home past Finneytown goalkeeper Tess Enderle.
Following the goal, Finneytown woke up and began to play with a bit more urgency, and started to push the ball down the wings in Georgetown's defensive half of the field.
But while the Lady Wildcats created a few half-chances, Lady G-Men freshman goalkeeper Bella Clifton gobbled up the ball on every occasion and cleaned up any dangerous moments. Lady G-Men senior midfielder Rachel Gibbons always seemed to be buzzing around the ball as well, switching the field from left to right and breaking up opposition attacks.
"She is a strong player in the center for us," Silvis-Corbin said. "She doesn't have a lot of stats but she is wherever the ball is, I can always count on her to get it. She gives great through balls, she wins them all in the air, and she's a strong player."
In the second half, the Lady Wildcats nearly tied the game with a goal with 32 minutes remaining but one of the referees called the play back for a foul in the box.
Late in the match, the Lady G-Men took advantage of one of their few opportunities of the match as Lovell fed Dunseith for Dunseith's first goal of the game, giving Georgetown a 2-0 lead with 13:16 remaining.
Georgetown took a 3-0 lead after Carter found Lovell down the left wing, before Lovell dribbled through three Lady Wildcats defenders, cut into the middle, and fired a low strike past Enderle with 2:30 remaining in the match.
Dunseith put the icing on the win in the final seconds of the match with a fantastic goal off a corner kick. Dunseith took the corner kick from the right of the goal, and curled it in past Enderle without anyone else touching it for an olympico goal, finalizing the score at 4-0.
"That's what I was trying to do," Dunseith said. "I've done that before, but it's been a while. I was really happy."
The victory was the Lady G-Men's first since they last hosted a sectional match in 2003. The team hasn't won sectionals since 1998, according to Georgetown's record books.
"I think that it is important. Since I started we went from the bottom seed and we've made our way up to being seeded No. 9. I think it's huge for the program and it's a confidence booster. I think the kids that we have coming in and the seniors that we have are leaders and strong leaders for us."
The Lady G-Men next faced Madeira High School on Thursday, October 22, at Madeira. Read more about that result in the next Thursday News Democrat.

California retailers have been issued another cautionary tale about the pitfalls of requesting personal information from customers at the point-of-sale (POS). The law at issue – the Song-Beverly Credit Card Act, California Civil Code section 1747.08 – prohibits retailers from requesting and recording personal identification information from customers during the course of a credit card transaction. With an ambiguous statute and little case law, California retailers have found complying with California's Song-Beverly Act much easier said than done. Particularly troublesome is that no court has articulated when a credit card "transaction" ends such that the retailer may properly request customer personal information in compliance with the law. The ground for retailers has become even shakier following a recent opinion from the Southern District of California, which held that POS software that signals to the sales associate when the transaction ends, following which the customer's personal information is requested, is not enough to avoid Song Beverly liability.
In Juhline v. Ben Bridge Jeweler, Inc., No. 11cv2906-WQH-NLS, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 129413 (S.D. Cal. Sept. 11, 2012) the defendant jewelry retailer moved for summary judgment on the grounds that the plaintiff could not prove all the elements necessary to show a violation of Song-Beverly. Specifically, the defendant retailer argued that the company's POS software had separate sections: "Sales," "Tender" and "Customer Information." The company contended that the sales associate would use the "Sales" and "Tender" screens on the POS system to ring up the goods and process the customer's credit card. Thereafter, the sales associate would be presented with the "Customer Information" window, which "pop[ped] up after exiting the tender section of the transaction." The sales associate would then request personal information, and if the customer provided the information, then the sales associate entered it into the POS system via the "Customer Information" window. After this process, the receipt would print.
Relying on the titles and chronology of the POS software as defining exactly when the credit card transaction ended, the defendant argued that a Song-Beverly violation in this circumstance was precluded. The defendant argued that because the personal information was requested under the POS "Customer Information" window, which occurred after the initial POS "Sales" and "Tender" functions, the associate was waiting until the credit transaction was completed before making the request. According to the defendant retailer, it was "physically impossible for the store sales associates to record any personal information until the sales transaction is completed and payment is tendered."
Unfortunately for Ben Bridge Jewelers, the court found otherwise. In his order filed September 11, 2012, Judge Hayes cited the Florez v. Linens 'N Things, Inc., 108 Cal. App. 4th 447 (Cal. Ct. App. 2003) case and its determination that liability turns on whether a customer could "perceive" the store's request for information as a condition of the use of a credit card. Since the customer had no idea what POS screens the sales associate was currently utilizing at any given time during his trip to the check-out counter, the POS screens could do nothing to inform the customer whether his personal information was required to complete the transaction. Perhaps fatal for the defendant's argument, the retailer waited until after the "Customer Information" screen popped up to print the receipt and hand over the purchased merchandise. The court specifically pointed out the fact that the retailer requested personal information before the receipt printed and merchandise changed hands. Without a receipt and goods in hand, a customer could very well have a reasonable perception that his participation at the POS (and any associated request for personal information) was still required in order to complete his credit card transaction. The court denied summary judgment, and the Song-Beverly case against Ben Bridge Jewelers will proceed.
Interestingly, the Juhline court's interpretation is in striking contrast with the conclusion of the Los Angeles Superior court in a similar Song-Beverly class action case brought against Ben Bridge Jewelers in 2009. In that case, the court granted summary adjudication in favor of Ben Bridge Jewelers, and explicitly "decline[d] to read into the statute a requirement that no personal identification information can be requested or recorded until after a retailer prints the sales receipt and gives it, along with the merchandise, to the customer." As another example of the continuing confusion in the Song-Beverly landscape, the Los Angeles Superior Court order stated that it was also relying on Florez when coming to the directly opposite conclusion of Judge Hayes. (Judge Hayes also found that since the Los Angeles Superior Court case was adjudicated on the merits prior to class certification, and the plaintiff in the instant action was not a named party in the prior state action, the state court action had no collateral estoppel effect on the case before Judge Hayes in the district court.)
While this opinion does not give California retailers clear guidance on when a credit card transaction ends and a customer's personal information may be requested, it does offer helpful observations as to what types of POS procedures a future defendant retailer will need in order to raise a defense. Judge Hayes specifically noted that the personal information request occurred before the "receipt was printed" and "the purchased merchandise was handed to him by the sales associate." Had the personal information request occurred after the receipt and goods were in the customer's hand, Ben Bridge Jeweler would have had an easier time arguing that the customer could not have had a reasonable perception that the personal information was required to complete the transaction. In fact, the plaintiff's own declaration stated that "it is my experience as a consumer that a sales transaction is not complete until I have possession of the merchandise and can freely leave the store." While not ruling that handing the receipt and goods to the customer before requesting personal information will protect a retailer from liability, this opinion does imply that such procedures would be a more careful practice than requesting personal information before handing the customer the receipt and goods.
Of course, the district court's ruling is not binding, and this is an area of law where the Supreme Court of California could dramatically change the judicial landscape overnight. (For more information, read our prior article titled "Two New California Supreme Court Decisions Will Impact Landscape of Class Action Litigation Against Retailers.") Until the expectations of the law are better defined, relying on the labels and chronology of the POS software to define the parameters of the credit card transaction will not assist a retailer in avoiding liability under Song Beverly. With the continued development of the case law, and the onslaught of class-action Song-Beverly lawsuits recently filed against California retailers, we recommend that all retailers consult with California attorneys who specialize in this area to ensure that their POS practices are not putting them at risk for a class action lawsuit.

Metal Gear Solid may not be unfamiliar with torture, but MGSV's scenes of it look to be the most brutal and hard to watch yet. Following the uproar over Grand Theft Auto V's playable torture scene – which players cannot opt out of – Metal Gear director Hideo Kojima has stated that despite the narrative weight of MGSV's toture scenes, which thus far seem to include at least a couple of depictions of waterboarding as well as what we can safely assume is cattle-prod enhanced interrogation, will be kept as cutscenes.
""It's something that needs to be done," Kojima recently told Eurogamer. "As the expressiveness of video games goes up, if you want to go beyond that it's not something you can avoid."
Given that Kojima has previously stated the themes of the next Metal Gear range from revenge to race, heavy subject matter like torture doesn't seem out of place here. But keeping players from feeling too uncomfortable, as many felt being an implicit party to GTAV's torture sequence, is also important.
"I didn't want to go as far as having playable torture," Kojima added.
Whatever the case, it would appear that Kojima's claims that he wants MGSV to "change the industry" – which, coming from Metal Gear's "70 percent movies" auteur probably means tackling narrative taboos and subject matter that most games wouldn't touch (any expected design brilliance notwithstanding) – have a lot of potential to ring true here.
What exactly that will entail, or how it will play out, is something we won't know until sometime late next year. For more on the story, check out the link the below.

Here are some videos of Apple's CarPlay in action.
When you see it in action, it's not just that you can see cars getting smarter, but you also realize how this kind of technology will help spur driverless cars. You could essentially use a future version of this technology as your command center, while the car drives itself. I imagine driverless cars to be like autopilot in planes where a driver still needs to know how to drive in an emergency situation.
This video is the most impressive demonstration of the technology we've seen so far.
The touchscreen in this car is huge, which seems ideal for this kind of system (bigger screen can mean bigger buttons to tap), but it's a little laggy (especially when compared to current iPhone speed). That will need to be fixed before launch. The experience should be similar to using an iPhone. All of these systems, however, are demos right now, and should improve quite a bit before they ship to consumers. They are still quite impressive.

This is a weird video of b-roll outtakes. I don't know if it really has any value, but we saw no reason not to include. The two videos above are much, much more interesting.

Women's blood inspires rebel art in Nepal (Feature with images)March 21st, 2010 - 12:53 pm ICT by IANS
By Sudeshna Sarkar
Kathmandu, March 21 (IANS) As a young girl brought up in a conservative household in the Nepal capital, Ashmina Ranjit remembers how her mother used to scold her for touching things during menstruation. "I used to hate that," the artist says adding her anger inspired her to create and "celebrate womanhood and the feminine force".
"In South Asian countries, a natural feminine phenomenon is regarded as an impure thing," says the 43-year-old maverick artist, known for her multimedia presentations on war, human rights violations and discrimination against women.
"In Nepal, the traditional belief is that if a menstruating woman touches water, it becomes defiled. If she touches her husband, she commits a sin and if she touches a plant, it dies.
"When my mother asked me not to touch trees, I would deliberately go and put my hand on a sapling. 'There,' I would tell my mother, 'Did it die? Now it's become even stronger'."
The anger against discrimination against women has inspired some of Ranjit's most startling creations celebrating menstruation, which she redefines as "celebrating womanhood and the feminine force".
Last week, when Alliance Francaise organised the "Week of the Women" in Kathmandu to celebrate the 100th International Women's Day, Ranjit held a three-hour solo show with an art installation and a performance as part of her "menstrual activism".
"In Nepal, menstruation is regarded as a private thing and women are asked to stay in isolation," says the artist who comes from a community traditionally engaged in print-making.
"I calculated how many sanitary napkins a woman needs during her lifetime, if you consider the average adolescent to start menstruating from 12 and reaching menopause at 50. Then I glued the estimated number of pads into a white dress embroidered with red threads to denote veins. When I wore this dress to the performance, people were stunned at first. They didn't know how to react."
During the performance, Ranjit would squirt red paint from a tube into each of the pads, roll it up and put it into the litter bin. She would then move among the audience explaining what she was doing and why.
Now the mother of a nine-month-old is gearing up for a herculean 15-hour public show.
"I am planning to hold it around September," she says, "when Nepal celebrates Rishi Panchami. It is an occasion when women have to brush their teeth with twigs for more than 100 times and do other cleansing acts to expiate themselves of the 'sin' they committed by touching their husbands during menstruation."
Ranjit, who holds art degrees from Nepal's Tribhuvan University, Australia's University of Tasmania and the Columbia University Graduate School of Art, did her first menstrual installation, Hair Warp, in 2000 in Kathmandu, Fukuwa in Japan and New Delhi.
The exhibit included a dark room curtained with human hair. Inside the room there were public triangles strung with red thread to simulate the flood of menstrual blood.
She did an encore in 2002 while doing a three-month residency at New Delhi's Sanskriti Foundation. The installation at the Lalit Kala Akademi interwove the yoni, the tantric symbol for the female sex and reproductive organ, with the kunda, the male one.
The design was punctuated by hundreds of feminine dresses made of ceramic with a hole at the bottom from where pieces of red thread dribbled down to resemble blood.
Rural Nepal still observes 'chhaupadi', a dreaded custom that keeps menstruating girls and women confined, often in a dark cowshed outside the main house.
Girls are not allowed to go to school during this time while women teachers can't take classes, even in government schools.
"If you can't go to school 13 times a year, it becomes an equality-related issue as well," says Ranjit. "As it is, girls are behind boys. This makes them lose out further when it comes to education and opportunities."
Ranjit says her art is intended to make people think. "I always think culture should be preserved. But we need to question them. There would be no life without menstruation, which is a form of feminine power."
"So the taboo on it is a bid by patriarchal society to negate it so that it can dominate women."

S/O Ignoring Abuse
Poll Results
Question: If you are in a store and see what appears to be child abuse, what do you do?
Ignore it - Not your business.
Call PD - Better safe than sorry.
Total Votes: 36
Question: If you are in a store and see what appears to be child abuse, what do you do?
Total Votes: 36
In another post, it has been strongly suggested to ignore what appears to be child abuse simply because its not your child and you don't know the situation. Do you agree with this?
And don't suggest any other options for the poll... this is my poll conduct your own if you want it to be different. = )
Depends on what you are calling abuse. A mom yelling/slapping her kid? No I'm not calling the cops.
Report it. I could never witness a child being abused and do nothing about it.
I am in SHOCK that right now the poll says 26% of people would ignore child abuse because it's none of their business. What the hell is wrong with you people?! You see a child being abused and you do nothing because it doesn't affect you? No wonder so many children are abused for years--people aren't willing to stand up for them! It's disgusting! If someone saw someone else (your SO, a family member, a friend, a babysitter, etc) abusing YOUR child, would you not be pissed and out for blood if it went unreported, simply because it didn't affect the life of the person who witnessed it? "It's not my business. Who cares if that child is abused and neglected. It's not my kid." Seriously?
Proud momma of 4 kids, three of my own and one who didn't grow in my belly but has taken over my heart!
Honestly, if it's going on in a store, I don't know the full story. I wanted to call the police on someone a few weeks ago because there was a 2 year old behind us in a stroller with a broken arm and a broken leg and bruises everywhere. Looked like child abuse to me. I also know the father who was standing right behind her and he's an abusive ass to his women, so it made sense. I was telling my friend about it and come to find out that little girl was in a car accident with her mother a few weeks prior. I would have felt like an idiot had I called the police. Not only that, but I'm just curious, if you think abuse is going on just by something you see in a store, how exactly are you going to send police to their home? Follow them around the store until they leave and then follow them home? I just don't get it. Assuming abuse and actually seeing it and having proof of it are two totally different things.

One of the interesting items agreed to in the 2013-14 New York State Budget was the Family Tax Credit. As you may recall, the tax credit is supposed to impact middle class families with incomes between $40,000 and $300,000. One of the main sore points was that the tax credit is in the form of a rebate check which is scheduled to be mailed several weeks before the election of 2014. The other main sore point was that the credit excluded members of the middle class who did not have families. I am pleased to say at this time we at least have a proposal to address the first issue with the rebate check.
Assemblymember Donna Lupadro recently introduced (A6926) which is a bill that would lower the cost of administering the "family tax relief credit" that was included in the 2013-14 state budget. Senator Latimer has also introduced the same bill (S4745) in the New York State Senate. The bill would stop the state from issuing the credits in the form of hard rebate checks, cutting down on expenses such as printing, postage and the cost of administering the program. Instead, the Tax and Finance Department would be required to make the tax credit available when a taxpayer files his or her return for the taxable year. I am pleased to say I signed on as a co-sponsor of this bill as of this past week and for good reason.
Tax relief should not be politicized in any way, shape or form. Just as importantly, with today's technology, there is no reason why the tax credit cannot be calculated during the traditional income tax return season and hopeful deliver funds to middle class families households sooner rather than later. The "check before election" just dilutes the process and impairs what is an effort to help families throughout New York State and I look forward to supporting this effort going forward.

Photographer Shawn Nee, who has had numerous run-ins with Los Angeles authorities over the years, was detained once again.
This time, LAPD officers accused him of interfering with their investigation, even though he was standing on a public sidewalk behind two chain-linked fences, about 90 feet from the cops, as he snapped photos of them investigating a domestic violence incident.
They handcuffed him, placed him in a patrol car, drove him to the police department and handcuffed him again to a bench, before they removed the handcuffs and brought him into an interrogation room.
When he refused to talk, insisting on contacting his attorney, they released him without charges.
But only after having detained him for 90 minutes.
Then they claimed they had never arrested him.
"They said that I was never arrested, that I had only been brought in for questioning," Nee said in a telephone interview with Photography is Not a Crime.
Reason TV produced the above video on the June incident and wrote this story, quoting an LAPD spokesman who confirmed that we have the right to photograph police investigations:
Reason TV showed the video to Andy Neiman, the officer-in-charge at the Media Relations Section at the LAPD. He said he could not comment on the video specically but said of individuals taking pictures, "If their physical proximity to the investigating officers becomes interfering where an officer has to stop what they're doing to admonish that individual that they're too close or could you stand back because they are distracting from the officer's business, then that's where it becomes an issue."
But Nee says he was so far away from the investigation that the officers had to walk down a 60 yard driveway, enter their squad car, and drive to the location where he was taking photographs around the corner from the initial investigation just to detain him.
Besides his film camera, he had three Vievu cameras on him, recording all the interaction, including one on his chest and two clipped on his bag.
He is already suing the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department over its ongoing harassment of him, which goes to trial next year.
And he will most likely sue the LAPD over this matter, although he won't confirm or deny that.
But he does acknowledge he has a lot more video footage that he has not posted, but will eventually.
"I've learned over the years that police will watch the videos and collaborate their stories," he said.

I blame it on my entrance
It may have seen to much like confidence
Let me start it over
Help me get to what I can from when I did
Had to leave my reasons
It may have seemed to much, the consequence
In your busy, dizzy life you'll become everything
You said you would
All that I know is how I can hold on but all that
You see is how I let you go
How about once around?
It may have seen to much like confidence
Let me start it over
Help me get to what I can from when I did

0General Commentsuch a pretty song, JEW released this on the same demo cd as 'softer'. i think its all about a guy wanting to either apologise to or ask out a girl that he had dumped and regrets it. probably wrong, but i love this song. its another of their many beautiful songs. anyways, that's what i think...
0General CommentI first heard this song when I got the 5-track JEW CD. The guitars in it are just amazing, this song doesn't need lyrics over the top, I mean the lyrics are fantastic, but it's the actual music that makes love it even more. the outro to the song is just beautiful. This is definately one of JEW best songs, it's a shame that I have never seen them play this song live, I am sure it would also touch all of those that are seeing them from only listening to the Bleed American album.

Everton defeat Norwich to go 4th
Goodison Park
Saturday, January 11, 15:00
Attendance: 36,827
Everton jumped back into that lucrative 4th place as they saw off Norwich 2-0 at Goodison Park on Saturday. A Gareth Barry stunner opened the scoring for Everton in the 23rd minute and a Kevin Mirallas free kick early in the 2nd half effectively killed the contest on the hour mark. Despite the comfortable scoreline, Norwich did pose some danger to the Everton side and they will lament some poor finishing, but given the form of Everton in the 1st half and early in the 2nd half, it was a thoroughly deserved win for Everton. The result saw them leap frog neighbours Liverpool into 4th, with Liverpool playing on Sunday.
Everton made several changes to the side that defeated QPR 4-0, Jelavic was left out of the squad as he seems on his way out to Hull City. The likes of Baines and Lukaku also returned to the starting XI after being rested for the FA Cup clash. In a blow for the Toffees, young star Barkley suffered a toe injury and could potentially face a couple weeks on the sideline. It was revealed prior to kickoff that Everton had acquired the services of Aiden McGeady and the Irishman should be available for next week's clash with West Brom. Norwich made a couple changes as well, and shifted to a 4-4-2 with Hooper and Van Wolfswinkel upfront.
Everton started the brighter of the two and largely controlled the pace of the game and they had a golden chance to take the lead through Lukaku. Mirallas whipped in a cross and all it needed was a touch for the Big Belgian, however he could not get that touch and went harmlessly wide. Norwich then shortly after managed to create their best chance of the half after a terrific long ball from Whittaker landed in the path of the in form Hooper, however Hooper's touch let him down and Howard managed to get to the ball.
Everton continued to search for that first goal and just after the 20min mark they found it courtesy of Gareth Barry. After a brilliant touch and control from Lukaku, the Belgian laid it into the path of Barry and the on loan man continued to run towards the goal with Norwich defenders backing off, Barry then decided to take the shot from 20yds and unleashed an unstoppable shot that left Ruddy helpless to give Everton a deserved 1-0 lead.
After that goal, Everton continued their dominance on the game, however a combination of poor final ball and poor finishing meant that the Norwich shot stopper was never really tested in the 1st half. Norwich, despite conceding the possession were still dangerous on the counter and on the stroke of half time could have found themselves level, however Howard was quick to get out of his goal and force the striker away from goal, and the Van Wolfswinkel's shot was comfortably controlled by Stones, and he managed to clear it away.
In the 2nd half, it was more of the same from Everton and inside 10mins they doubled their lead courtesy of Kevin Mirallas. After Baines was taken down by Bennett, Mirallas stepped up to the task and from 20yds managed to stick it right into the corner and left Ruddy with little chance.
After that 2nd goal, the momentum did seem to shift as Everton let there foot off the gas, and Norwich, who had brought on Redmond were a bit more expansive and to their credit didn't lay down, and fashioned a couple decent chances with Snodgrass, Van Wolfswinkel, Redmond and Johnson all squandering their chances as Everton eventually ran out 2-0 winners.
Up until the 2nd goal, Everton were pretty good, our passing was outstanding and with a better final ball and finishing, we really could've killed the game early on. It was really disappointing to see us relax after the 2nd goal and let Norwich back into the game, but thankfully it didn't cost us in the end. Overall as an Everton fan you can;t really have any complaints. It was a decent performance, with 2 cracking goals, 3pts which sees us jump into 4th and we have a new signing in McGeady. So it was a good day for Everton as far as I am concerned.
