Inter Milan face Tottenham Hotspur this week in the Europa League and Gareth Bale will be in the forefront of their minds thanks to the last time they met.
The Welsh winger is in devastating form for Spurs at the moment and will be in the mood to tear the Serie A side to pieces once again.
The first was during the white Hart Lane club's glorious defeat to at San Siro where Bale's brilliant second half hat-trick almost sparked an incredible comeback from a 4-0 deficit at half time.
Bale orchestrated Inter's demise in the corresponding fixture at White Hart Lane during Tottenham's first ever Champions League outing in 2010-11.
Bale's heroics got GiveMeFootball reminiscing about Premier League teams and their memorable moments in Europe, especially the numerous brilliant goals they have scored.
So, in true GMF style, we have compiled a top five of goals scored by Premier League stars in Europe.
Here they are:
Gareth Bale v Inter Milan
Tottenham are currently experiencing Bale's best form since his demolition of Maicon and the first of his incredible hat-trick was the pick of these. Everything that is brilliant about the Wales in international was evident – power, pace and clinical finishing. Watch it above.
Cristiano Ronaldo v Porto
The year Manchester United got to their second successive final was billed as the meeting between Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona's Lionel Messi. The Portuguese gave a little taste of what he could do in quarter-final against Porto. His 35-yard rocket was incredible and decided the tie. Watch it here.
Thierry Henry v Real Madrid
On their way to a final defeat at the hands of Barcelona, Arsenal faced a trip to the Santiago Bernabeu and left being the first English team to defeat the mighty Real Madrid in their own ground. It was thanks to this incredible solo effort from Gunners legend Henry.
Alex v Liverpool
Chelsea were in control after winning the first leg at Anfield 3-1 but goals from Fabio Aurelio and Xabi Alonso gave them a scare. It turned out ok in the end as a 4-4 draw saw the Blues book a semi-final against Barcelona. The highlight of the eight goals was a free-kick thunderbolt from Brazilian defender. Watch it here.
Freddie Ljungberg v Juventus
Arsenal could do with the combination of Dennis Bergkamp and Ljungberg right now; the pair shared a terrific understanding and were a constant goal threat to the Gunners opponents. Bergkamp's skill and guile around the box was well-known and the 3-1 win over the Serie A giants saw one of his most sublime skills. The third goal to wrap up the result came from a sublime flick that bamboozled the Italians' defence and allowed the Swede to dink over Buffon. Relive the moment of genius here..and here.
Which do you think are the best goals from Premier League sides in Europe? Leave a comment below to let us know…

Chapter Fifteen – To leave or not to leave?
Now, as she sits curled up on her L-shaped sofa with a thin, woollen blanket wrapped around her and the customary cup of green tea warming up her cold hands, she smiles a wry smile. None of her childhood propositions are quite as odd or unexpected as the one is she currently mulling over in her mind.
Well accustomed to watching relationships fail, Nadia has never been under any illusions that marriage is easy. Lust, she assumed, fizzled out after some time, the absence of which, although much missed, was overcompensated by deep love and respect.
She remembers her first few months of marriage, when Daniel's ego was still intact despite relying on financial stability from his wife, and hers was flourishing under the weight of constant compliments from her husband. She remembers the raunchy text messages they would exchange whilst she was at work, the tingling feeling in her toes whenever she would turn the corner into her street, excited about seeing him again and the lazy Sunday mornings they would spend in bed, just snuggling up to each other and talking about their lives, their hopes, their dreams.
Nadia can't pinpoint the exact moment when their Sunday morning chats started taking a bitter turn, when Daniel stopped asking her about her job, stopped sharing with her his plans, stopped talking about the future. At the beginning, he relished having so much time to read, to study Islam, to explore London and would recount a lecture he had attended, or show her a book on Sufism he had found. After a while though, he stopped going out, stopped reading and spent all day and night on the internet looking for employment. Their chats now consisted of him complaining about London – the weather, the pace and even the pigeons. When he ran out of problems he had with the UK, he would move onto her family or even her: her tiredness after a long day at work, the housework that piled up and had to be tackled on the weekends, her lack of interest in the kitchen.
During one fight, when he brought up the stack of laundry that had yet to be put away and the amount of pizza they consumed on a weekly basis, Nadia, her voice shaking, retorted: "I'm the one who is at work every day with an hour long commute each way. Since you're the one sitting around at home, why don't YOU do it?"
He fell silent. The anger that was sizzling in the air died as if a bucket of water had been thrown over it. He turned on his heels and walked out of the flat, into the cold, winter streets without his coat.
Nadia collapsed onto the kitchen chair, and with her head in her hands, regretted the words that carelessly (but accurately) fell out of her. A little part of her remained angry though. As sensitive as the subject was, the fact did remain that he was the one at home so he should have been the one tidying up and cooking, she shouldn't have to do it both. She was being made to feel guilty for not fulfilling 'wifely' obligations, but the sad reality was, neither was he. In Islam, it was his duty to provide her with a roof over her head, to put the bread on the table, not hers.
After the fight, Daniel stopped complaining about everything. In fact, he stopped talking altogether. He spent more time alone and no matter how hard Nadia tried to give him a shoulder to lean on, he refused to acknowledge it. Terrified that her marriage was failing because of its uneven dynamics, Nadia stopped talking about work and spent more time in the kitchen, attempting to restore some balance into their relationship.
The silence became louder and louder until one Sunday morning, he told her that he had been offered a job - in Dubai. A job he had already accepted, without even asking her, that he would take regardless of her opinion.
What Nadia hadn't realized about her husband at that time, was that he rarely spoke about the inner battles he fought daily. He was skilled at translating lust into love and then conveying it, but that was it. All other turmoil, conflict, confusion, was buried under an indifferent façade. So, although he had finally broken down and admitted his resentment, he didn't reveal the extent of his emotions – his bitterness at marrying someone more educated, more intelligent, better looking than him – his inexplicable need to feel wanted, powerful and desirable.
Nadia, like any other wife who wanted to save her marriage, quickly agreed to move to Dubai, despite recently landing a swanky new job in a swanky new City office. She blamed herself for not acknowledging Daniel's restlessness and bitterness until it had developed beyond repair, for not doing more to make him feel strong and worthy. Weighed down with burden of truly believing that she had not fulfilled her duties as his life partner, she pushed thoughts of her career, her family, her life and her home to the back of the mind and went about arranging the move with robotic precision.
"Are you sure you want to move out there? How could he not have even asked you before he accepted the job?" Roba was furious at the thought of her older sister moving across the globe with a husband who didn't seem to hold their relationship in much regard. Although Nadia didn't complain about the decision, it was clear that she was scared. Her family and friends assumed it was fear of the unknown that was worrying her, but the truth was, she was scared that her marriage was falling to pieces and that it was All Her Fault.
Daniel packed up and left, leaving her to sort out the rest of their belongings and admin issues while she worked out her notice period.
Their first few weeks in Dubai were difficult. Now that he had a job, instead of acting happily empowered, Daniel seemed to gloat over Nadia, laughing at the way she was at a loss of what to do with the vast, empty expanses of time she was confronted with. They already had an apartment, courtesy of the University, and after she had shopped for all their furniture and had decorated it with Ottoman inspired ornaments, rugs and cushions, she had absolutely nothing to do but eat, shop and sleep. As Daniel had lived in Dubai for six weeks before she came out and joined him, he had already made friends and Nadia was disappointed to find that they were nothing like his friends in England. Gone were the cute, God fearing guys she was happy to feed routinely. In their place were a couple of obnoxious, misogynistic 'Muslims' with drinking problems that she refused to tolerate. She was even more upset when she realized that he clearly preferred their company over hers.
Despite the steady degeneration of their relationship and the clear indicators of his impending – if not existing – infidelity, Nadia still clung on to a single shred of hope. Even when she was confronted with the extent of his Facebook fetish, the awful evening when he found her weeping and bleeding in the shower, a tiny part of her believed that it wasn't over. She would remember their dizzy courting days, the lovely, lazy Sunday mornings and his eloquent love letters and tell herself that all that love couldn't have just worn away. It was this fragment of faith that kept her heart beating and forced her blood to pump around her body.
She had eventually climbed out of the shower with aching joints and shriveled, prune-like skin. She wrapped a thick towel around herself and pushed opened the bathroom door. Her wet hair clung to her head and her neck as the water dripped down her back before being absorbed by the towel. Her eyes were still bloodshot and the cuts she had inflicted on herself – the long scratches on her arms and legs - were now sore and tender.
Daniel was sitting on the sofa in stony silence. He didn't look up when she entered the living room, nor did he utter a single word of consolation. His sullenness shocked Nadia, who expected a contrite apology at the very least. Even a denial would have been better than the refusal to dignify her pain with a response. She sat next to him on the sofa, her gaze cast down, her pulse throbbing in her head. Clearing her throat, she tried to speak, but nothing came out. Terrified that this was the end of her rocky fairytale, that she was about to be just another statistic, she tentatively took his hand into hers.
She didn't know why she took his hand. She just knew that she was scared, that she wasn't quite ready to let him go, and that she needed to find out exactly what was going on in his mind. Why did he feel the need to run after scores of women? She was tired of wondering, hoping, loving, to no avail.
"Daniel," she began, her voice hoarse. "What's going on?"
There was another long silence.
"Nothing," he eventually replied, his voice trembling. He let go of her hand and turned his head away, but she took it again and squeezed it.
"Daniel," she started again. "I love you. I loved you when I married you and even after everything, I still love you. But I can't continue like this. When we got married, you made me feel like the most amazing woman in the world. You made me feel like I could tackle anything with you by my side, that I would never be alone. You made me feel smart, beautiful, happy. Now, I don't know who I am anymore. I feel ugly, I feel weak, I feel lonely. Every day I walk around in a daze, my head splitting with pain, my lungs contracting as I try to breathe and try to understand. I left everything for you. I came out here for you. But I don't even know who you are anymore."
Nadia explained that she needed to feel loved and appreciated – by the man who mattered most to her. As she articulated her frustration and confusion, pain squeezed her heart and she wondered how she ended up in this position. She knew that Happily Ever After was just a gimmick created by Disney to make money, but she never imagined that she would be sitting with her husband a year after their wedding, trying to coax him into revealing the reason why he couldn't be loyal to her. Why her love simply wasn't enough for him.
With a lot of coaxing, Daniel reluctantly began to speak and their conversation was surprisingly honest. He confessed his desire for attention, his inferiority complex, the way he needed to feel loved, wanted. His history of depression. He admitted that he used to be on Prozac, that when he met her, he thought his self-deprecating days were over. And for a while, they were. Until his unemployed state began eating away at his self-esteem, his sense of self-worth, his masculinity. And now, even though he has a good job, he still feels weak. He hates that she used to earn more than he does now, that she has a better degree than him, that men are always looking at them wherever they go. He believes that they are wondering why she settled for him. Everyone thinks she is too good for him, and now, he feels that he is not good enough. He needs to feel worthy.
The more they spoke however, the darker the confessions became. He admitted to fantasizing over her friends, indulging in porn, hoarding a secret stash of pictures he had copied off Facebook - of very ordinary girls whom he felt attracted to. Nadia, sick to her stomach, was too scared to let her true feelings be known in case he stopped talking and reverted back into his shell. She listened to him admit that he had invited her buxom air stewardess friend out on a desert trip, and how Sophia had come assuming that Nadia was going to be there. She felt as if she had been stabbed. Running after random women was one thing, but to pursue her friend was the ultimate betrayal. Her words stuck in her throat, she said nothing, just stared at him in horror as she realised his issues ran deeper than just craving attention – he actually needed obscurity within his sex life.
A part of her wanted to get up, run out of the flat and never look back, but another part of her reminded her that she swore to be by his side, for better or worse. At almost thirty, she knew it would be tricky to find a Muslim husband and as a divorcee, it would be almost impossible. Should she – could she – overlook her husband's indiscretions for the sake of not being alone? No marriage is perfect and at least he isn't physically abusive – right?
"I do love you," Daniel explained, his voice strained. "But I need more. I can't help it. This isn't the first time this has happened. It has happened in all my relationships. I don't want you to leave me but I need more than just us. I'm sorry."
He stared at Nadia, at her bristle, uncombed hair, at her pale face and big, dark eyes. He stared at her small, frail frame wrapped up in a towel, the weakest of barriers, and for the first time in their relationship, realised how powerful he actually was.
"So what are you saying?" she finally asked. "You want to be with me but you want me to share you with any girl who takes your fancy? How would you feel if you were sharing me with a bunch of other guys?"
"Actually," he began nervously. "To be honest, I wouldn't mind. Why don't we try having an open marriage? We both love each other, we both like being together, so why don't we stay married but just enjoy other people's company once in a while? It'll solve everything."
Nadia's jaw fell open. In all her wildest dreams, her darkest nightmares, she never imagined that one day, her husband would offer to share her with other men in order to fulfill his own sexual fantasies. She was astounded that Daniel felt like his masculinity had been impaired by unemployment, and yet would remain intact if she - his wife and his honour - slept with other men. She shook her head in disbelief, got up and walked into the bedroom, locking the door firmly behind her. She had heard enough for one night.
Today, she sits on the sofa, still curled up, still unsure as to what she should do. Although she is not the slightest bit interested in embarking on affairs with other men, she is wondering if she should turn a blind eye to Daniel's infidelity, if she can be happy knowing that she isn't the only woman in his life. It has been done before, and no doubt it will be done again, but whether she too should live this kind of existence, she doesn't know. She does know that she doesn't want to be divorced, doesn't want her family in Morocco gossiping about her inability to hold onto her husband. She doesn't even want her grandmother to throw her arms around her and applaud her for doing the right thing.
Picking up the phone, she nervously begins to dial her mother's number. She can no longer face this alone.

Call me European (which I am) but the mindset of this couple is so closeminded. The story is just great. Absolutely fantastisc, thats not the problem.
Its reality that is bugging me. A beautiful girl bound by marriage to an a-hole husband... no words for it.
And the scary part is that people really still think that way nowadays!
Its irony for me really. Great stuff Ghostwoman. I'm your ghostman from now on...hooked. ;)

Well... speechless
- December 4, 2009 at 6:02 PM
I don't know why every body is chocked by Davids behavior. though some things are chocking, like he is okay of sharing his wife with other men just to fulfill his sexual obsession. but the fact that he desires other women than his wife is..... I mean men are polygamous by nature.
be 100% sure that this story has happened, is happenning with every single married life.
we all can go on a debate about it, but Huda is a good muslim. if she wants to practice islam, all of islam, let her husband marry another lady. they can do that. it would be the perfect move to save her marraige.
I liked the story alot, I heard about it from a friend. and to be honest I never thought it will grab my attention like this.
- December 24, 2009 at 1:05 PM
sounds very similar to my ex-marriage,throwing him out of my life was the best thing I'v ever done.

I will never understand women who "try to work it out" after the cheating crap they find out!! Fuck those dickheads big time! *fuming*

Recent Monterey Institute graduate Julian Zhu (MACI '12) could be considered a prime example of how social media is changing the landscape of the job search and recruiting processes for students and employers—not to mention the importance for students of building relationships with faculty members. Julian is currently working as a Terminology and Reference Intern with the International Criminal Court, Interpretation and Translation section in the Hague, the Netherlands. He found out about the opportunity by following Professor Uwe Muegge's Twitter feed and also got helpful tips from the professor about how to get the most out of his experience. "I found that the preparatory work greatly helped my work here," says Julian.
Later Julian found out about an opening for the position of Language Specialist at Amazon Kindle through Professor Muegge's Twitter feed (see @uwemuegge), and again sought his advice. The two corresponded frequently throughout the application process, as Julian prepared for the interview and made a salary request. And the story has a happy ending: Julian will start his new job with Amazon in Seattle on December 17!

Mastoiditis is an infection of the mastoid bone of the skull. The mastoid is located just behind the ear.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Mastoiditis is usually caused by a middle ear infection (
Mastoiditis usually affects children. Before antibiotics, mastoiditis was one of the leading causes of death in children. Now it is a relatively uncommon and much less dangerous condition.
Drainage from the ear Ear pain or discomfort
- Fever, may be high or suddenly increase
- Headache
- Hearing loss
- Redness of the ear or behind the ear
- Swelling behind ear, may cause ear to stick out
Signs and tests
An examination of the head may reveal signs of mastoiditis. The following tests may show an abnormality of the mastoid bone:
CTscanof the ear Head CT scan
A culture of drainage from the ear may show bacteria.
Mastoiditis may be difficult to treat because medications may not reach deep enough into the mastoid bone. It may require repeated or long-term treatment. The infection is treated with antibiotics by injection, then antibiotics by mouth.
Surgery to remove part of the bone and drain the mastoid (
Expectations (prognosis)
Mastoiditis is curable with treatment. However, it may be hard to treat and may come back.
- Destruction of the mastoid bone
Dizzinessor vertigo Epidural abscess Facial paralysis Meningitis
- Partial or complete
hearing loss
- Spread of infection to the brain or throughout the body
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you have symptoms of mastoiditis.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if:
- You have an
ear infectionthat does not respond to treatment or is followed by new symptoms
- Your symptoms do not respond to treatment
Promptly and completely treating ear infections reduces the risk of mastoiditis.

Brilliant1 necessitava di un nuovo design di logo e ha lanciato un contest su 99designs.
2 vincitori sono stati selezionati tra 68 design presentati da 25 designer.
Desire logo in Illustrator or Freehand vector form. Graphics in PNG or PSD. The winner must grant exclusive rights.
Desired Style:
Styles that pop! Crisp, friendly, professional, business, academic.
Accepted File Formats:
logo in vector, graphics in PNG or PSD. Prefer PNG.
First Class MLM (not live now) will be a site for people who are researching MLM, people who are wanting to be trained on MLM, and people desiring tools to help them build their MLM business.
FirstClassMLM homepage will be the gateway to sup pages that will be heavy in content (text). The sub pages will be:
1. Research (for people researching the MLM industry)
2. Training (for people wanting effective training)
3. Leads (for people looking for interested prospects)
Therefore, we need:
1 logo (First Class MLM)
1 home page (will be the gateway to the sub pages)
1 sub page for text content with space for advertisements
The reason we're combining all projects together is because there needs to be a consistent look and feel across all pages.
LOGO: Obviously with the name First Class MLM, we're looking for a design that demonstrates FIRST CLASS. We like seals and crests (art that demonstrates stability) as well as the use of classy fonts, but designers have free reign to create as brilliance strikes! The logo should not "drown" the primary purpose of the home page - which is to cause viewer to click through to the content pages.
HOME PAGE: We would like the home page to be professional with an academic, yet friendly business look and feel. The emphasis of the home page would be the art work that invites the viewer to click on the 3 sub pages (Research, Training, Leads). Therefore, the home page will have the logo, three main sections (Research, Training, Leads) - can be tabs, boxes or whatever. Also the basics: Home, About, Blog, Contact.
SUB PAGE: We would like the sub page header (logo, header bar) to have a similar look and feel as the home page. However, it will be slightly subtle in comparison to the home page as to not distract from the content of the page. The sub page will also require a column for advertising and place to sign-up for newsletter; preferably along right side. Here's an example of current subpages and volume of content: http://newsletter.firstclassmlm.com/
Obviously we're looking to replace this with something more aesthetic.
Desired color scheme: Whatever communicates "First Class" to you!
Example 1: Rich navy (#000066), tan (#C5BF81), dark red (#930042).
Example 2: Dark blue (#263B59), grey (#DDDDDD), red (#940041) and light blue (#8EA6C5)
These are only examples of color schemes we've liked.
This contest was originally listed in multiple categories:
- Logo Design
- Web Page Design

Expert Advice
Where does your run take you? Do you log miles on city streets or trek off-road?
The ASICS running collection at DICK'S Sporting Goods includes traditional running shoes and trail shoes—specialized footwear designed for unpredictable terrain and off-road conditions. ASICS trail running shoes feature aggressive outsoles for added traction and support.
Look for the details that help you make the most of your run. Multi-directional stretch-mesh in the upper provides lockdown fit and a breathable feel. Flexible rubber grooves along your shoe's outsole adapt to the natural movements of your gait. Innovative lightweight gel in your midsole cushions, comforts and absorbs impact.
Inner sockliner in your ASICS running shoes is a must—this feature works to lift perspiration from your skin and enhance the fit of your footwear.
Understanding the mechanics of your run is essential when selecting running shoes.
A runner's heel typically strikes the ground first. With every strike, the foot rolls slightly inward and the arch flattens to absorb impact. Your foot then rolls slightly to the outside to propel your next step.
Pronation is the foot's natural inward roll. Neutral pronation absorbs impact for efficient running.
Overpronation is the exaggerated form of this inward role. Runners with overpronation are at risk of joint injury and paint. Supination, or under pronation, is the outward roll of the foot.

I am using this blog to record my genealogy research progress. My research at this point is concentrated in Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvania records. Since many of my ancestors ended up in the Midwest and West my research sometimes takes me in that direction. I also research Irish records.

Hi - Charlesphine Hammer Engstrum (Godfrey's mother) was my grandfather's first cousin. I stumbled across your posting of the Engstrum family bible about six months ago while I was searching for the family. I knew about all of Charlesphine's children - except for Godfrey. And when I saw this post, I nearly jumped out of my seat. I'm so glad to have Godfrey remembered in the family records.
I was then able to find his tombstone http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=40221242
and poignant obituary for him: http://pluto.state.wy.us:80/awweb/awarchive?item=2794644
I have two questions:
1 - Is there another page or pages in the bible with the births of the other children?
2 - Is it okay with you if I download the bible image for the purpose of sharing with other interested family members?
Thanks so much!

Very Nice to hear from you Vauna! Certainly you can copy and share the bible in any form you would like! I will post the rest of the pages. Sad the bible ended up at a book sale. Hope that as many interested family members as possible eventually see it all. Also, thanks for the additional info! Annette

My grandfather was Laurence Emanuel Engstrum. My grandmother Laura left the Bible behind in Whittier when she moved to Missouri. I'd very much appreciate having copies of the family pages, or even the Bible itself if that's possible. Contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you.

A thoroughgoing exegesis of the lyrics to Pink Floyd's The Wall.
Be nice to get a serious answer if anyone feels like exerting themselves

Kill me.Some other tools are a bit sillier. The Emotional Labor browser extension, built by New York City writer Joanne McNeil, will embellish emails with exclamation points, smiley faces and affectionate words a spoonful of linguistic sugar added with a single click. Distracted men can download the BroApp, a program that automatically sends their girlfriends boilerplate texts like Hey babe, how was your day? and Miss you.
Yeah so did Jenkins but i need 10,000 words plus

I'm pretty sure all you ever need to know in Home Ec is "you can never have too much kitchen roll". That would have been more useful than anything else I ever learnt in Home Ec, probably.
replete w pathetic letter of rebuttal from the odious toby young
Ugh, it sounds like a fucking Tesco advert.One school near where I live in South-East London has an intake of British, African, African-Caribbean, European and Asian children: it put up an enormous Union flag mural, with Democracy, the Great British Value, emblazoned on it, the V of Value done as a tick.
I could quite happily go the rest of my life without hearing or reading one more thing described as "Great British". It's invariably something shit.
teaching a critical perspective of domestic history would be a good idea
then perhaps the next generation wouldn't potter about so apolitcially wearing keep calm and carry on aprons giggling over pimms and cupcakes and vacuous replicant popstars like ed sheeran

"Boogedy, boogedy, boogedy . . . Let's go racing boys!" NASCAR fans know well this call to action from legendary NASCAR driver and racing analyst Darrell Waltrip. Meanwhile, E15 is fueling the action on racetracks from Daytona to Talladega. Through the efforts of American Ethanol, millions of people are beginning to know its message.
American Ethanol is a partnership between NASCAR, Growth Energy and the National Corn Growers Association. The six-year partnership (which began this year) supports NASCAR drivers, racing teams and racetracks with various marketing activities and increases ethanol's visibility to the American public.
American Ethanol is participating in NASCAR's Prize Money & Decal Program. It sponsors the American Ethanol Green Flag Restart Award in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. It provides weekly prize money in the NASCAR Nationwide Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series based on drivers' finishing positions. It also has a NASCAR driver spokesman. Clint Bowyer, driver of the No. 33 Chevrolet car, grew up in Kansas and has spoken about ethanol's importance to rural economies.
NASCAR CEO Brian France updated the ethanol industry on NASCAR's use of Sunoco Green E15 at the Fuel Ethanol Workshop (FEW) in Indianapolis in June. France explained how the racing organization did a significant amount of testing on ethanol before it made the decision to fuel race cars with E15. If NASCAR had encountered any problems, the races would not have gone on with E15. France told the audience, "We had to have a lot of confidence in your product."
With some 80 million fans, NASCAR has high visibility, and the organization has helped correct some of the public's misconceptions about ethanol. "We've become mini evangelists about some of the key points — that ethanol helps with energy independence, that it's American made, and that it drives down emissions," France said.
Mechanics will sometimes tell consumers that ethanol will damage engines. Now that the ethanol industry can point to $100,000+ race cars running on E15, the argument can be put to rest, said Rick Tolman, CEO, National Corn Growers Association at FEW.
Ethanol has performed well during this racing season, and its use has resulted in only a minor decrease in fuel efficiency, France said. At the same time, E15 has increased engine horsepower between 5 and 8% and has reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
"More Americans are seeing the benefit of E15 and going green with ethanol when they see how Sunoco Green E15 has helped put NASCAR drivers in Victory Lane week after week," says Stephanie Dreyer, senior public affairs associate, Growth Energy. "The American Ethanol relationship with NASCAR is much more than just ethanol. It genuinely is about all rural Americans, considering how important ethanol is to the rural economy. The more we educate the American public about ethanol, the better."

Here are five standout moments from Sunday's 65th annual Primetime Emmy Awards telecast:
1. Merritt Wever, who won for best supporting actress in a comedy series, delivered what surely must be the shortest speech in Emmy history.
"Thank you so much," she said in accepting the award. "I gotta go. Bye."
It was both bizarre and humorous, prompting host Neil Patrick Harris to deem it the "best speech ever."
2. The five tributes to deceased TV standouts were as touching and emotional as expected. Among them, Rob Reiner, a cast member of "All in the Family," tenderly spoke of how Jean Stapleton brought "humor, heart and soul" to her role as Edith.
Also, a tearful Edie Falco recalled James Gandolfini as a man who was nothing like the mobster he played on "The Sopranos."
"He had tremendous warmth and heart."
3. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler proved again why they should be incorporated into every awards show from here on out. They performed a hilarious bit early in the show, in which they donned 3D glasses, munched popcorn and basically leered at Harris. (Urging him to shed his pants). It saved what was mostly a lackluster opener.
4. In a nod to Emmy history, Kerry Washington appeared with Diahann Carroll as presenters. Washington, who stars in "Scandal," was vying to become the first black performer to win for best lead actress in a drama. Carroll was the first black person, female or male, to ever be nominated for an Emmy.
Gazing out over the audience, the TV veteran cracked, "The men are much more beautiful than when I was working in television."
5. Michael Douglas nabbed a prize for his role in "Behind the Candelabra," a Liberace biopic in which he shared love scenes with Matt Damon. He delivered an innuendo-laced acceptance speech that had him insisting that the award should be shared with his co-star.
"You really deserve half of this," he told Damon. "So do you want the bottom or the top?"

Making the transition from military to college life can be challenging. To assist with this transition, Temple University has several support programs that are available to students.
Academic Resource Center
Not all students enter college with a clear understanding of what they want to study. To assist students in making important decisions about their program of study, the Academic Resource Center is staffed by attentive counselors who are equipped with the information students need to discover the major that is right for them. Even for students who enter Temple with a specific major in mind, the Academic Resource Center can help them to explore their options.
Career Services
Veterans seeking assistance with selecting a career path, post-graduate study or marketing skills can get support from the staff at the Career Services Center. Services offered include: career assessments, special programs, resources and industry information to help you explore your options. Services may be offered in person or online. To learn more, visit the Career Center.
Continuing Studies
Whether you are brand new to college or have multiple degrees completed, The Office of Continuing Studies is a good place to start your inquiry into Temple. Students take courses for a variety of reasons some of which include working toward undergraduate, graduate, or professional school admissions, professional development or personal enrichment.
Continuing Studies advisors can guide you through the process of enrolling in Temple credit courses on a non-degree basis. Continuing Studies students can earn college credit, but are not admitted into a degree program.
In order to earn a degree at Temple you must first apply and be admitted to the University. You can use Continuing Studies to help build an academic record if you plan to apply to Temple.
Please call to schedule an appointment with an advisor at one of the following locations:

Disability Resources & Services (DRS)
The Office of Disability Resources & Services, DRS works with veterans on identifying strategies and accommodations that allow them to participate fully in the University experience both inside and outside the classroom.
Veterans who use DRS often include those with traumatic brain injury, post traumatic stress disorder, ADD and learning disability. Also, a smaller number of veterans with physical, visual and hearing disability use our services during their time at Temple.
Some veterans who register with DRS choose to take their examinations in our department if they require extra time, a distraction-reduced space, assistive technology or other accommodations. DRS offers resources to assist with funding to cover costs related to attending Temple, such as tuition, housing, assistive technology, tutoring, books, medications and other disability-related expenses. In collaboration with career center, we lead a comprehensive job preparation program for students who use DRS.
Veterans are welcome to apply for on campus housing. Students are housed according to their class standing (i.e. freshman, returning, graduate, Ambler or transfer student). Housing policies and procedures are available on the University Housing and Residential Life website.

Student Financial Services
It may seem basic, but the first step in obtaining any student financial aid is to apply. Many students never do, in the belief that they will not be eligible for funds.

The Afghanistan Country Portfolio Evaluation (CPE) encompasses the entirety of World Food Programme (WFP) activities in protracted relief and recovery operation (PRRO) 200063 from April 2010 to June 2012. The PRRO aimed to enhance food security and improve the human and productive capital of 7.6 million food-insecure Afghans. As planned, it was the second largest PRRO in the world, representing 9 percent of WFP's total global budget.
Given the extremely complex and challenging operating environment in Afghanistan, WFP's operations underwent considerable change over the portfolio period. The evaluation found that WFP was appropriately and closely aligned with the evolving general architecture of government policy. Operationally, the evaluation found that while WFP worked closely with government partners at the local level for delivery, monitoring and follow-up, there were challenges and concerns related to partners' legitimacy in some regions and the adequacy of their management of WFP's food distribution.
Perhaps most importantly, conflict-sensitivity within the portfolio has remained reactive and focused on the maintenance of current activities rather than re-design. Overall, the medium- and longer-term activities such as food for assets were well received by beneficiary communities and nutrition projects have shown some encouraging results.

When you're trying to co-host a feminist radio show and some guy calls up and asks if he can request a song.
This is not unusual. People call to request songs on the radio all the time.
But when you explain that you host a feminist radio show and that you only play female-positive (or neutral) music and the guy says that he'll call back...and then he calls back asking you to play this song by Ludacris (warning - the lyrics are horribly sexist). Well, I hate that.
When that song was requested by a guy who clearly knew the criteria that Kate and I use to judge what music we play on our feminist radio show, it was annoying. It was clearly an attempt to try to cut us down. Either that, or that guy was really uneducated and had no concept at all about what "female-positive" means. But I don't buy that at all.
This isn't even the worst of what Kate and I have experienced during our three years of hosting the Female Impersonators Radio Hour at Knox College, but it never ceases to be annoying.

Was it 99 problems but a bitch ain't one? Because he's probably just upset that he doesn't have a girlfriend and so he's using derogatory songs to express his vast sadness and depression that girls don't like him. Sadly, this will backfire as a lot of girls don't like it when men are sexist.

Channel Your Favorite Hitchcock Heroine
We're feeling a Hitchcock frenzy (pun intended) in the air as fall approaches, so while Hitch's heroines may be classic beauty icons, their arched eyebrows, flushed cheeks, and blood-red lips feel particularly right this season.

So start your retro look with Stila's new Stay All Day Foundation & Concealer ($44); the two-in-one product offers full coverage.
Fill your brows in just a bit more than usual with Tom Ford's Brow Sculptor ($42) and swipe Revitalash's Spotlight Highlighting Pencil ($24) underneath the arch of your eyebrow. Blend the shimmer up into your brows and pencil a bit in the inner corner of each eye, pushing it out onto the lid.
Smile and brush CoverGirl's Cheeker Blush ($4) in Classic Pink along your cheekbones.
A strong red lip will help you stand up to villains so apply Revlon's Matte Lipstick ($9) in Really Red, blot, and apply once more.
Use the Mason Pearson Tail Comb ($22) to tease your hair (this is a good time to try out that faux bob!).
Toss Guerlain's Parure Compact Foundation ($64) and Estee Lauder's Lip Conditioner ($8.50) into your most ladylike bag. Wherever you're headed, make sure you don't sit next to the wrong stranger on the train!

We chat with John Coates, author of The Hour between Dog and Wolf: Risk Taking, Gut Feelings, and the Biology of Boom and Bust. Kirkus Reviews describes it as "an in-depth look at how financial risk-taking is linked to human biology, especially to the testosterone levels of young male traders, and the implications of this phenomenon for financial markets and the wider economy." If you want to understand how we think, this book goes a long way toward explaining it.
We also speak with Katherine Stewart about her book The Good News Club: The Christian Right's Stealth Assault on America's Children. Katherine Stewart is a journalist who has written for The New York Times, The Guardian, and the Daily Beast, among others. Her newest book was inspired in 2009, when the Good News Club came to the public elementary school where she sent her children. Sponsored by the Child Evangelism Fellowship, the Club bills itself as after-school Bible study, but its real mission is to convert children to fundamentalist Christianity.

At a probation violation hearing last week, Philadelphia Common Pleas Court Judge Genece Brinkley ordered the popular hip-hop artist "Meek Mill" to attend etiquette classes. The entertainer was convicted on drug and gun charges in 2008, for which he served eight months in jail and began five years probation in 2009. Subsequent statements made by Meek on his Twitter account led to anonymous death threats against his parole officer.
Meek's attorney argued that the probation's travel restrictions were preventing his client (who appears in videos rolling around in piles of money with hookers and champagne) from earning a living. Assistant District Attorney Noel Ann DeSantis countered, "That's the consequence of being on probation." The judge ended the contentious hearing by saying that the etiquette classes were "more important than any concerts Meek Mill might have."
My first thoughts upon reading about this were "Teaching manners to convicted felon hip-hoppers; who on God's green earth would want that job?" Then it hit me. This is Philadelphia, the city of kickbacks, cronyism, pay to play, you name it. There's money to be made from everything. I figured if I could open a charm school for these ne'er-do-wells and get the court system to funnel offenders my way, I could make a fortune.
And so it is with undue pride and some trepidation that I announce the grand opening of my "Skool of Hip-Hop Etiquette," a fully accredited, full-service facility offering certification programs designed to satisfy even the most stringent probationary requirements.
I am assisted in my teaching duties by my 84-year old uncle Roy, whose hip hop moniker is "Dentu-Cream." I go by the name "Vanilla Pudding." In addition to adopting these "street names," Roy and I have completed a course in "Hip hop as a second language," designed to further increase our "street cred" in the eyes (and ears) of the students.
Obviously, teaching good manners to rap-artist parolees requires some finesse. It's a fine line; if they get too refined or civilized, their career will be over, but if they don't improve at all, they'll go back to jail.
In our school, students will learn:
• How to rap in Chinese. Be prepared for the new world order.
• What to wear to a probation hearing. Sweater vest or suit and tie? Definitely not a full-length fur or sharks-tooth necklace
• Posture and Poise. Always grab your crotch with the left hand, and never look anyone directly in the eye while doing so, as this would be considered rude.
• Properly reading another's body language. No, I'm not reaching for a weapon; I'm merely adjusting my suspenders.
• The importance of apologies. For example; "I'm so sorry I shot you. I thought you were someone else." Of course, it's best not to apologize in person in cases like this, but you can send a nice note or a Hallmark card.
Conversely, if you were the shootee, you'd reply, "Thank you for not killing me. I'm delighted that I will still be able to make my dentist appointment this afternoon."
In addition, students will learn how to:
• Distinguish between self-respect and egomania.
• Be assertive without frightening children and old people.
• Get a trophy wife, a trophy baby and a pet alligator.
• Recognize the difference between "swagger" and "sexual harassment."
• Cover yourself in gold and diamonds without seeming ostentatious.
• Appear to show interest in the problems of others, even if all you care about is yourself.
• Avoid interrupting someone who's on a profanity-laced rant. Always wait until it's your turn to rant.
• Start your own line of cologne. If you're not comfortable calling it a "fragrance," you can call it a "scent," which has an exciting, territorial air about it. Call it something bold, like "Gutz!"
Future courses will focus on "How to plan and host successful parties on the Main Line," "Preparing for a date" and "What not to do on job interviews." With the proper training and dedication, all of our graduates can go on to become respectable members of society and best friends with President Obama. Excuse me, but I'm afraid I have to go now. I can hear Uncle Roy screaming for help.

For most of us, being a long-time diehard of the Seahawks (or even any sport team) tends to make one superstitious by default.
Maybe you noticed you were wearing a certain jersey when they went on a winning streak. Or you never, EVER watch a game without "doing this". Even if you don't believe in superstition, you find yourself doing them, even subconsciously, "just in case."
My Fearless Prediction threads tend to follow that philosophy. This month I am knee-deep in "Trends". Ever since I picked the Seahawks to beat the Rams and they lost, I felt it necessary to pick against the Seahawks to see if the tides of misfortune would overturn in our favor. So I predicted a Seahawks loss to the Panthers. Win. A Seahawks loss to the Patriots. Win.
You see where this is going, don't you?
As if I have a choice this week.
Aros' Fearless Prediction: Seahawks 13 - 49ers 17
Aros' Record To Date: A Happy 2-4

Taylor Swift Has 'Dubstep-Inspired' Track on 'Red,' Admits She Listens to A Lot of R&B + Hip-Hop
Taylor Swift experimented on her new album 'Red,' which drops Oct. 22. Perhaps all those guests she brought on stage last year during the mammoth 'Speak Now' tour and all the covers she performed of regional artists when passing through their cities rubbed off on her songwriting!
Rolling Stone heard the album, claiming that one song, which is a "key track," included a "dubstep-inspired bass breakdown." Wow. That's different, and we're curious to hear how Swift pulled EDM off!
Another song, dubbed 'State of Grace,' is said to be a "U2-style epic with reverb-drenched guitars." Whoa, U2? T. Swift siphoning influence from Bono? You don't say? Interest, meet aroused.
Swift, a noted fan of TV crime procedurals, isn't shy about admitting her passion for hip-hop. "I have so many playlists full of Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown," she gushed. "I love Wiz Khalifa." Time for a Taylor Swift remix of 'Black and Yellow?'
Swift also addressed the fact that she worked with songwriters on 'Red,' something she had not done prior. She did just fine penning all the songs on the mega-selling 'Speak Now' on her own, so why fix something that wasn't broken?
"I felt like an apprentice," Swift said about her songwriting partners. "They taught me so much about melodic sense, and they let me do what I love, which is the lyrics."
As for those lyrics that she loves? She touched on — you guessed it — love! "I know general things about love," she said. "How to treat people well, what you deserve and when to walk away. Other than that, love is a complete mystery – and that's why I like to write about it."
This is why our gal T. Swift is the teen set's poet laureate.

Helping The others Realize The Advantages Of ForLawFirmsOnly
Edward Kundahl, President of BusinessCreator and ForLawFirmsOnly, Reveals the Introduction of an Original Targeted Lead Generation Program

Edward Kundahl, president and business owner of BusinessCreator Inc. and ForLawFirmsOnly, a targeted lead creation and local search engine promotion and marketing organization, is thrilled to introduce the availability of a state-of-the-art targeted lead generation system developed uniquely for legal practitioners.
Edward Kundahl states, "Our all new Rapid Results Leads Program is devised to produce superior leads consistently, month after month, for a fixed monthly rate. Your phone will start to ring almost as soon as we get your campaign started. After many years of experience generating leads for attorneys, we have been able to develop a program that is more practical than the existing solutions provided for online leads. Our unique program features include: a fixed monthly fee (no pay-per-click or pay-per-call costs); no setup fees; exclusive leads - each lead is only sent to one law firm; we serve only one law practice-type in your marketing area; direct-call from our lead generation platform; online access and daily reporting, and no long-term contracts - you may cancel your program at any time after the initial three-month campaign. In addition, there is absolutely no restriction to the volume of leads and no restriction to the quantity of offered professional services or coverage areas."
Kundahl continued, "The all new program is designed around our professional skills and takes a holistic strategy to lead generation specifically designed for lawyer or attorneys. It takes advantage of programmatic ad management, the most efficient method to manage PPC programs for maximum call volume. The process is managed by our new team leader, a former Google AdWords employee responsible for training AdWords Agencies throughout the U.S. for over a decade. The campaigns are optimized for phone calls, mobile and voice search. We also utilize the power of Facebook ad display to generate quality leads. Our skilled illustration artists work with our promoting and marketing group to generate high-converting display ads and landing pages. We also take advantage of display ad retargeting. Our program has access to as much as 99 percent here of all sites that supply ads on Ad Exchange Networks and our platform ties into over 70 diverse BusinessCreator publisher exchanges. We use a unique tracking number for each and every client campaign. There are every day reports and access to the call-tracking website.
" Our new Rapid Results Leads Program is created to generate quality leads consistently, month after month, for a fixed monthly fee. Your phone will start to ring almost as soon as we get your campaign started."
