Very few manufacturer's come out with a television that causes me to stop and actually research it. Usually because very few people actually know how to make a television that is unique and practical, and so most of them start to seem like the same. However, there are some televisions that are truly unique in their approach to entertainment. One of these TV's is the Panasonic 42″ Flat-Panel Plasma HDTV, Model: TH-42PX75U.

If you have read any of my other articles, you may have noticed that I completely love the company of Panasonic. I trust everything that comes out of their factory, because I know that it will be of the highest quality and standards. This has been true for their cameras, and it is still true for this television. Some of the features that this television offers its users is the resolution. You will be able to enjoy a total resolution of 1024 x 768. This along with the various technologies that are placed inside of this TV will make you think that you are watching something in real life, not on a television set.

This television comes with a 16:9 aspect ratio, which will give you the ultimate cinema experience. There are also several other aspect ratio modes that are included, some of these are 4:3, full, zoom, just and H-fill ratios. Along with the various ratios, you will also be able to enjoy the Digital Cinema Reality systems, which give you a literal reproduction of film – which just adds to the whole idea of creating an actual at-home movie theater.

Another feature is the high contrast ratio, which is 10,000:1 as well as having 3,072 shades of gradation and 29 billion equivalent colors. Basically what all of those numbers mean, is that you will get the most brilliant and arresting picture quality available today. You will never want to play your video games on another television again. Some other image features you will be able to enjoy includes a video noise reduction and motion pattern noise reduction.

Now, we know that this television has some of the best visual technologies, one may ask, “how does it sound?” Well, with a 2-speaker system that boasts 20W speakers and virtual surround sound, you will think that you have accidentally stepped inside of a movie theater. This television also comes with 2 HDMI inputs as well as 2 analogue audio, 1 composite video, 1 S-video, 2 audio and 1 component video inputs. And, of course, there are several outputs. These include 1 composite video, 1 analog audio and 1 digital audio outputs. And, there is also a V-Chip built-into the television.

When you are purchasing a new television, it can be slightly overwhelming. This is why you must continue to do your research and find out what exactly you need. However, considering that there are hundreds of choices, I highly recommend this television for those who are wanting a brilliant television set.

Is your laptop on fire? Laptops are notorious for overheating, especially if they are running for hours at a time. An efficient way to avoid overheating while your laptop is on a desk or on your lap is to use a cooling base. My personal favorite laptop accessory to use is the Microsoft Notebook Cooling Base with Fan. As the name suggests, this cooling base has a fan that directs heat away from my laptop. This keeps my 17″ HP laptop cool and helps my legs avoid burn marks.

There are a variety of reasons why a laptop may overheat, including dust particles blocking air flow, a bad fan, or the environment is too hot. Placing a notebook on your lap will also cause airflow issues, and you will most likely start feeling the heat on your legs. I once had a terrible burn mark on my leg from placing a notebook directly on my lap and not using a base. Not using a cooling base and allowing a laptop to constantly overheat can cause serious hardware damage. Your laptop can end up frying itself to death, which can result in hard drive and motherboard failures. An unexpected shutdown is a sign that your laptop is overheating, as well as if the unit feels hot to the touch.

Microsoft Cooling Base Portability
I really liked the fact that this cooling base is ready right out of the box. It plugged right into my laptop's USB port and started working immediately. There is no software or additional attachments to get the unit working. The cooling base works off the laptop and shuts off when I turn my laptop off. Of course, it also starts right up as soon as I turn the laptop on. To quit using the cooling base for a while I just unplug it from the USB port.

An additional portability feature is that the cooling base is super-slim. I can tuck the base in my laptop bag and have it with me anywhere I go.

Lap or Desk Use
The cooling base is lightweight; according to product specifications it weights less than 2 lbs. I found that the cooling base did not add much weight on my lap, which was great considering that my laptop screen is 17″ wide and the laptop itself is a mammoth. The cooling base also has top and bottom rubber grippers, which is useful in avoiding accidents or slips.

On the desk, the base can be adjusted in two ways; it can sit flat or be propped up with a built-in stand. I preferred to use my cooling base propped up with the stand. It helped to make this product more ergonomic, especially when I had to type for long periods of time. Using the base flat is tougher on my wrists and hands, and is not as comfortable when typing all day.

Does the Microsoft Cooling Base Work?
I would say that the cooling base is effective, and works well to take heat and dust away from the laptop. I found a significant amount of dust pushed away from the laptop. The dust particles would usually be inside the fan or on my desk. My laptop remained exceptionally cool, and the keys did not feel as hot after hours of use. I stopped having overheating shutdowns with my laptop. Months later my laptop had a motherboard problem, so the cooling base does work to keep the heat away but it does not solve all hardware problems.

Microsoft Cooling Base has only one fan, located right in the middle of the base. I have a 17″ HP notebook. I was initially worried that one fan would not be enough to keep the laptop cool. It seemed that one fan was enough, as it got the job done just fine.

I would suggest that this product be used by anyone with a laptop, even if you are not experiencing major heating problems. Allowing air to flow and keeping dust away will help you have an efficient notebook for years to come. Microsoft Cooling Base with Fan is available at most stores, including Target and costs less than $30. This product is efficient and affordable, especially considering the expense of laptop repairs or replacements.

Never, ever would I move to hit a meliorate intent than the marketing and organisation geniuses at Apple, but permit me intercommunicate this discover there anyway. With the MacBook bottoming discover at a 13.3-inch concealment filler and the
iPad at most 10 inches, a 12-inch ultraportable would encounter a status at Apple.

I crapper center Apple designers bristling at the intent already: 12-inch modify factors are so passe! Too small! 13.3 inches is the amend compounding of portability and size!

But move a minute. With today’s materials and semiconductor technology, 12-inch laptops add themselves to the incoming goblet of laptop portability: inferior than 2 pounds. With Apple’s gift for trend-setting designs, I crapper envisage a 1.5-pound, razor-thin (under 0.7 inches) MacBook that showcases Apple’s organisation prowess.

Of course, it would be priced substantially above the iPad to refrain whatever suggestion of candid competition. But conceive of the possibilities: a primary ultra-low-power Intel processor (Apple and Intel would requirement to alter downbound the thermals–the modify generated by the processor–a bit, modify beneath Intel’s newest power-efficient processors).

Or, as mayhap a meliorate option, envisage this: Take the iPad’s base internals, add a next-generation dual-core Apple A4 processor, paraphernalia on a built-in keyboard, and, presto, a rattling unequalled clamshell laptop not beholden to Intel (which, I’m sure, is dustlike with Apple). And Apple could creator an enhanced iPad-style operative system. (With Flash hold this time, please.)

Of course, there hit been a float of decorous 12-inch (and smaller) laptops in the time from companies same Toshiba, Sony, and Hewlett-Packard. Sony sells the 1.5 blow Vaio X series, and HP has continuing to update its favourite EliteBook ultraportable distinction with the 12-inch 2540p. But the Sony organisation is supported on a inactive Intel Atom processor streaming an overburdensome
Windows 7 operative system. And the HP organisation is more of a buttoned-down playing notebook.

Apple could alter whatever actual panache to the ultraportable laptop mart (again), which, I would argue, is effort stale. Would you acquire one?

This Christmas season we have a lot more to cheer for; Fifa 2009 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2009, two rivaling football giants are all set to ignite football passion like never before. Armed with new and improved gaming strategies in their arsenal, one can expect an explosion of football action as both sides gear up towards promising an exciting face off into the Christmas season.

Wonder who is going to be more successful? Well it is anybody's guess as to which game is going to set the crowds roaring for more. However a closer look into what each game offers is perhaps the best way of gauging which is the better game.

Fifa 2009

No doubt, Fifa 2009 is definitely popular not just with the home crowds but also on an international level. New improved game play that takes into account suggestions and criticism from players and critics alike has added to the success and popularity factor that Fifa enjoys year after year.

As the past years have shown, even this year there has been equal emphasis on ball physics and collision system. Fifa looks all set to rule the football games industry with additions such as “Be a Pro Seasons mode,” the “Adidas Live Season,” and the “10-on-10 football.”

Pro Evolution Soccer 2009

In keeping with the stiff competition that Fifa 2009 offers, Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 seem to have got right into the thick of things. There is a well recognized effort towards reinventing that game that set the grounds and the crowds on fire. However is not much change or addition in the game play from how it used to be earlier. And yes, a little more attention to the graphics side of the game would have definitely helped.

Having said that; natural game play is something that will surely bring back veterans and old loyalists of the game. Another positive is that they have the UEFA champion's league license, in addition to the licenses of both Manchester United and Liverpool.

Conclusion

From the looks of it, Fifa definitely look like they hold all the cards. In a world where improvement at every stage is vital, Fifa sure have their finger on the pulse of what sells and what does not. A mix of some super graphics and unique licenses has clearly put them in the front seat. Pro Evolutions Soccer may have some loyalist, however they really have a long way to go before they can offer stiff competition to Fifa and once again enter as rulers into the football gaming industry.

I know old PES loyalists might still throw the “natural game play” card in my face. While it does have its own place, but really how long can you pit that against new and improved technological advances?

All in all, both Fifa 2009 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 offer some of the best football action and moments. Honestly, no other game compares to the highs and lows that these two gaming giants bring.

The PSA Los Gatos Storm senior team will have a golden opportunity to advance into the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup tournament this Saturday night in San Jose.

While the San Jose Earthquakes long ago crashed out of qualifying for the 2010 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup tournament, one local entry still has a golden opportunity to make the final field of 40 teams. The PSA Los Gatos Storm, formerly the San Jose Frogs of the USL’s Premier Developmental League (PDL), will join the other 39 qualifiers if they can defeat North Bay rivals the Sonoma County Sol in a winner-take-all game at 7 p.m. this Saturday night at PAL Stadium in San Jose.

“We’re very excited for the chance to be in the U.S. Open Cup tournament,” said team General Manager Aaron Castro. “We hope to make a good showing for club soccer in this match.”

What is unusual about this story is not the game itself, but that the Los Gatos Storm are even entered into the tournament qualifier to begin with. In the 96 years the annual tournament has been contested, a team from the U.S. Club Soccer organization — the current affiliation for the Storm — has never participated. Instead, the United States Soccer Federation (USSF), the governing body behind the tournament, selected amateur teams from the more recognizable PDL and U.S. Adult Soccer Association (USASA) organizations through a series of regional qualifying tournaments.

“We participated in the U.S. Open Cup tournament when we were the San Jose Frogs, and we wanted to continue playing as the Storm,” said Castro. “However, since we are currently not a member of the NPSL (National Premier Soccer League, affiliate of the USASA) or PDL, we knew the traditional method for qualifying would be different. We thought it would be simple to enter as a US Club Soccer team, but it wasn’t.”

Back in April, Castro contacted the USSF about joining the already established Region IV qualifying tournament to be held at the end of May among teams from the NPSL and PDL. However, he was told that as not possible, and denied his request.

“I persisted in trying to get my team into the qualifying with the other Region IV organizations,” explained Castro. “Even though the NorCal Premier League (of which the Storm were a member team) was a recognized soccer organization and a sanctioned part of the USSF, there was not a mechanism for their teams to enter this tournament.”

Perhaps this initial refusal would be enough to deter most teams from their efforts, but Castro was not going to give up that easy. He knew that all USSF affiliated teams have the right to enter the U.S. Open Cup tournament, and he was determined to see the Storm get their chance to play. A series of e-mails and phone calls to the USSF went largely ignored, until he finally received a reply from an official in the registration department that told him that he would look into the matter.

“Just about the time when I didn’t think anything was going to happen, I get a call out of the blue from the U.S. Open Cup competition secretary asking me to explain our application,” Castro shared. “I let him know a little about our team and our league situation. I told him we had players that were former professionals and current college stars, and that we were serious about playing for the Cup.

“He said he would make some calls, and it seems like the next thing you know, in what seemed like the eleventh hour, I got an e-mail from the USSF outlining what they were going to do for us. We will have a one game play-in match against the 2009 NPSL champion Sonoma County Sol, and the winner will advance to the tournament proper.”

This unusual decision from the USSF also had a profound effect on the Storm’s play-in opponent. Instead of entering the Region IV qualifying tournament along with the other NPSL representatives, the Sol could now qualify with one victory. In other words, they have been rewarded for their 2009 success with a simple path to the final 40.

Meanwhile, the Los Gatos Storm were given a huge advantage over the other amateur clubs trying to complete their qualification by needing to play just one game. With no other system in place, and with little time to organize something new for all potentially interested U.S. Club Soccer teams, the USSF did what they thought was best.

“The USSF admitted that there wasn’t a mechanism to get a team like us into the tournament,” said Castro. “Apparently this is something they have wanted to do for some time, but until now the situation had not presented itself.”

When the announcement was made earlier this month, some clubs criticized the USSF for their decision to let the Storm enter into qualifying. There were complaints that the one-game format was unfair to the other amateur clubs that required a much lengthier path to the U.S. Open Cup. With the highest finishing amateur club in the tournament winning $10,000 in prize money, the Storm (and the Sol) would have the shortest path to that potential award.

“We were always willing to go through the same process the other PDL and NPSL teams were required to do,” explained Castro. “But we were not given that option because of procedural reasons. I do feel this was a fair decision by the USSF. Right now there are a lot of teams like ours that are prevented from getting into the tournament. If we can be an example of how to get in, and force the USSF to create a procedure so that more club teams can participate, then I think it is good for everybody.”

Castro understands the frustrations of clubs that have not found a way into the tournament. He especially shared concern for those teams that have a long history of playing soccer in their communities, and have never had the chance that the Storm now have.

“I hope other teams follow our path and get to compete in future years,” he said.

With decision announced by the USSF, the next step was to schedule the game with the Sonoma County Sol. After discussions between the two sides, it was announced earlier this week that the play-in game would be held this Saturday evening at PAL Stadium in San Jose. Admission is free and the start time is 7 p.m. with gates opening two hours earlier for pregame festivities.

On paper, the match-up would seem to favor the defending NPSL Champion Sonoma Sol over the club team from Los Gatos. In fact, back in April the Sol visited the Storm in Los Gatos for a friendly and walked away with a 3-0 victory. However, a closer understanding of the Storm suggests this game may be more closely contested than perhaps the USSF envisioned when they set up this qualifier.

The roster of the Los Gatos Storm is a mixture of former San Jose Frogs and current local college players. The senior team currently competes in the NorCal Premier League 23-and-under division, so is made up entirely of youthful players. However, they have been training hard since their season began, and even scheduled a couple scrimmages with the Earthquakes as a way to gain experience.

The frontrunner to the Storm, the San Jose Frogs, came onto the local soccer scene in 2005 when the original San Jose Earthquakes left the city for Houston. The team had three successful seasons during those subsequent years in the lower divisions of the USL: first in the NPSL and later in the PDL. However, the team failed to garner continued attention in San Jose when the new Quakes team debuted in 2008. Later that year, they dropped from the USL and reemerged as the PSA Los Gatos Storm.

Numerous players spent time with the Frogs before making the jump to professional soccer, including current MLS players Andrew Wiedeman (FC Dallas), Stefan Frei (Toronto FC), Luke Sassano (New York Red Bulls), and Brandon McDonald (Earthquakes). Additionally, San Jose Earthquake Chris Wondolowski’s younger brother Stephen also has spent time with the team.

Going back to their days as the Frogs, the Storm faced the Sonoma Sol on numerous occasions. That familiarity should help on Saturday, but Castro was quick to point out that the players are different this time around. Instead, a new group of guys will need to step up to the challenge if the Storm are to complete their path into the U.S. Open Cup tournament.

“Our boys are very excited,” said Castro. “The training sessions have been well attended and been full of energy. Everyone with the team knows the importance of this game for us and for club soccer. We want to go out there and make a good standing and not be embarrassed. We have guys that have played at this level in the past, and they are helping the younger guys to get the right focus and be ready for a good opponent.”

Nothing is more exciting than a win-or-go-home game, and Saturday night should be a fun experience for those looking to see some top amateur Bay Area soccer talent battle it out with a prestigious entry in the 97th Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup tournament on the line.

Best Christmas Gift of 2008

By

Gayle Griffith

Just a few days before Christmas, my 2006 Toshiba laptop starting throwing out blue screens of death. It was time to get a replacement. It was time to take my significant other out for some browsing at computer stores, something he always enjoys anyway.

I knew that I wanted an Intel dual core processor and as much ram as could be jammed into a laptop. My Toshiba had a big 17″ screen, but was a bear to lug around when I traveled. I decided to downsize to a smaller 14″ or so.

I reverted to being a 5-year old when I saw the Gateway laptop, with red housing and silver keys. I was sure it wouldn't have everything I wanted but it in fact had a 4GB ram, and was an Intel dual core Centrino. I practically hugged it right there in the store.

The fact that it had Windows Vista operating system didn't bother me. I'd used it on other friends' computers. I really like it better than earlier systems. Call me crazy but I love the way it functions. It may take some getting used to because of the sheer simplicity of it.

So, on the night before Christmas, my best buddy made sure that Santa delivered that little gem under my tree. It's been 5 days now and I've used it almost constantly. I've used it for my eBay business, for e-mail, for writing articles, and for photo work.

It came with a built-in webcam. I expected that would never be used. But the software that came with it lets me blend in video I've shot with camcorders and I can create storyboards, titles and roll credits at the end. There has been no downside to this computer. As I browse websites, I see that it is a “sell out” at most stores. That just makes me feel even luckier. And the reviews? Almost all are glowing. Getting this little beauty made me a happy puppy on Christmas and I'm still feeling that way.

I'd recommend it to anyone. If you'd like to try one, here are the specs:

Gateway M-6848

Widescreen Notebook

15.4 WXGA ultrabrite LCD

Intel Core 2 Duo processor

Vista Home Premium

4 GB PC2-5300 DDR2 Memory

250 GB Hard Drive

3 USB ports; 1.3 mp webcam

6.29 lbs.

Well, it looks like MSI isn't waiting for Computex to show off some of its wild, new concept devices — it's just unveiled this so-called “SketchBook” at an event in Amsterdam. Offering a new twist on the convertible laptop, this one doesn't actually convert into a tablet, but rather features a rotating base that has a keyboard on one side and a full-size graphics tablet on the other — hence the name. Unfortunately, MSI is staying mum on any other details at the moment — let alone pricing or availability — but our counterparts at Engadget Spanish did get a chance to check out an early, non-functioning prototype of the device. Check out a shot of it after the break, and hit up the source link below for the complete hands-on.

Features:

• Blu-Ray optional
• Intel Core i7 Processor
• Discrete NVIDIA GeForce 310M Graphics
• 16.4-inch display
• MSRP: About $999, $1719 as reviewed

Pros:

• Great screen
• Great power for price
• Numeric keypad

Cons:

• Heavy as the dickens
• A bit plain in terms of design
• Low battery life

Netbook lovers can stop reading right now. Like a steak at a mid-range chain restaurant, the Sony Vaio F Series offers a lot of meat, sizzle, and some flash but at $999 you’re not getting quite a bit of fat. First off, this laptop is huge. Coming from an era of the thin and light, slapping this on your desk will visibly shake your coffee cup and don’t even think about taking this on the road. Just leave it at home, on your kitchen table, and you’ll be good.

That said, I can honestly say that this laptop isn’t quite a desktop replacement nor is it a travel notebook. Desktop replacements are just that – you throw away your desktop and buy one to do everything including video editing, gaming, and SETI@Home processing. This laptop, on the other hand, is sort of just big-boned and has enough chops to run a few things and enough battery life to be dangerous. Think of it as a Cafe computer, one you can take down to Starbucks to get a little work done on – provided Starbucks is within walking distance and you have a hand truck – and then you take it back to the home or office and set it back up with all of your USB devices.

The laptop can play games – it hit 2424 on Geekbench, a more than acceptable benchmark number especially among other i7 laptops – and the numeric keypad makes it great for keyboard/mouse gamers.

Interestingly, this laptop supports near-field communications with some Sony cameras, a feature that is not mentioned anywhere on the case.

The laptop does get a bit hot on your lap, but this really isn’t designed for the lap. Your best bet is to put it on a table and leave it there.

The laptop maxes out at 8GB RAM and holds up to 640GB. Sony also offers a solid state drive option and Blu-Ray costs $100. In all honesty I wasn’t amazed by the screen when watching Avatar on Blu-Ray so you may be a bit disappointed if you’re expecting things to really pop.

The Bad
Ports. Come on, Sony! Ports! The laptop has two USB ports yet features an HDMI and eSATA port prominently on the right side. Heck, there’s even a Firewire port. However, if this thing is going to sit on my desk for most of the day, you couldn’t sneak in a few more USB ports? There’s enough real estate on here, even with the rounded hinge at the back, to allow for a bit more expansion.

Finally, the F Series is definitely not the most exciting-looking laptop I’ve seen. It doesn’t look as bad as some of the other guys’ “fleet” laptops – the ones your IT department buys for you – but this won’t win any beauty prizes.

Bottom Line
At $999 at its cheapest model, it’s easy to tell who this laptop is aimed at. It’s a lower-priced gaming machine for a lower-priced market and it performs as advertised. It’s not so orotund as to be unacceptable and it’s not so small as to be portable – it’s almost just right. If you’re looking for a stable, strong laptop for a high schooler or someone who just wants a workhorse, this is an interesting consideration for your stable.

Following the footsteps of NBA Street and NFL Street, the FIFA Street series offers a more arcade-style approach to its sport simulation counterpart. The latest game in the series, FIFA Street 3 is the first next-generation offering. How does it fare against its predecessors? Find out in this preview.

Graphics
Although it was a choice of style, the character models look bland and uninspired. Fortunately, FIFA Street 3 looks great in every other department such as the incredible lighting, super-detailed environments and smooth animation. However, it doesn't look leaps and bounds better than previous games of the series.

Sound
Since soccer is a prominent international sport, FIFA Street 3 will feature artists from around the world including Bassnectar (San Francisco), Chromeo (Canada), Datarock (Norway), Hexstatic (London), Walter Meego (Chicago) and more.

Gameplay
As part of the Street brand, FIFA Street simplifies the game of soccer for a more arcade-like experience.

Several changes had to be made in the game to make the game of soccer more action-packed while maintaining the fundamentals of the sport. These changes include a smaller playing field, smaller roster of players and emphasis on style. As a result, you get a more exciting, high-scoring affair.

Style in FIFA Street 3 is important since it builds momentum for your team. To gain momentum, simply perform a few tricks with the ball. Once you fill the momentum meter, you will enter the Game Breaker mode, resulting in you getting new moves that will increase your chance of scoring.

Since Game Breaker mode provides an absolute advantage, gamers can easily spam the momentum meter by constantly performing tricks. This is because, like all other Street games, defense is kept at a minimum in FIFA Street 3. Basically, your best defense is a great offense.

Fifa Street 3 controls in the following ways:
Left Analog: Move Player
Right Analog: Drags
L1: Switch player on defense
R1: Use Gamebreaker
L2: Face Up and stall
R2: Hold to sprint
Circle: Shoot
Square: Lob pass on offense; aggressive tackle on defense; throw the ball longer as goal keeper
Triangle: Flick/juggle on offense; drop the ball as the goal keeper
X: Pass on offense; conservative tackle on defense; throw the ball as the goal keeper
Select: Instant Replay

Final Product
The shift to next-generation won't be complete without online gameplay. Luckily, FIFA Street 3 has plenty. The most interesting mode is the Online World Challenge, which allows gamers from around the world represent their country in a tournament. Every game in the tournament matters since the combined results of one country will be measured against others.

If you don't like soccer than you probably won't appreciate FIFA Street 3. Soccer fans looking for a casual experience, however, should love the game. FIFA Street 3 will be released in February for the Nintendo DS, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

 There’s a superb match in the Championship Playoffs today, so you need to make sure you watch Blackpool v Nottingham Forest live stream online if you want to see a great game! Every time Blackpool and Nottingham Forest play each other at the Bloomfield Road stadium, there is always an exciting atmosphere, and today will be no different. There will be 10035 screaming fans in the stadium to watch this match first hand.Watch Nottingham vs Blackpool Forest live stream online. On paper, it seems like Blackpool will be underdogs – and it’s a fact that Nottingham Forest usually play better when they are slight favourites, so it could be an explosive situation. Some of the meetings between these two clubs over the last couple of seasons have been close, so watch out today!

soccer is okay. i mean, it eliminates the most delicate, sensitive, accurate, and complex piece of the human anatomy – your hands. why would you take the one thing that separates us from all animals, that is the cornerstone of our civilization and remove it from an athletic competition? truth is a dog could kick a ball over a line. that being said, it can be fun and i am looking forward to the world cup. still, i guess the one thing i pity the europeans for is that soccer is all they have. americans get three distinctly different sports that overlap perfectly over the course of a year. europe has soccer. formula 1? tennis? nah… not really. team sports are the biggest draw and they only go in for soccer. and their championship isnt even really a championship. if you win the superbowl, you're the champion. but soccer you have like 4 different cups, league, inter-european and national team competitions. it's never over. you never know who really is the champion and every season of the year is the same exact sport. fuck that. especially fuck that today because we woke up in madrid and got to the train station and the whole station was filled with soccer fans. screaming and yelling like 5 year olds. and every single train to barcelona was FULL. full because of soccer. there is like a train every hour. 12 hours of trains totally booked with screaming soccer fans. i think it's because that's all they have. if you spread your sports love over the course of a year across multiple types of athletics you could avoid idiotic situations like this. seriously. 

INDIANAPOLIS
— The NCAA men's and women's soccer championships are a step closer to becoming a single event.

Division I men's soccer committee chair John Diffley confirmed Thursday that the Division I men's and women's committees are recommending a combined championship event beginning in 2012.

Diffley, a senior associate athletic director at St. John's, said there is no firm timeline for a final decision, which will be made by the NCAA.

Diffley said combining the two events could be more economical and marketable, creating additional fan interest. Diffley acknowledged there are concerns about a joint championship, including wear and tear on fields.

HP has unveiled several new products during a celebrity-studded gala in New York last Wednesday. According to HP's press release, the launch was held on the eve of New York's Fashion Week where the company played host to nearly 1,000 audience that were mostly celebrities and industry movers and shakers.

One of the celebrities in the event was tennis champion, Serena Williams who HP honored as the latest “achievers” in HP's “The Computer is Personal Again” Marketing Campaign. William's commercial had its television debut last August 27. In the event, HP also announced its support of the Design Industry Foundation Fighting AIDS organization.

The new skins were showcased by several celebrities including Williams, professional snowboarder and skateboarder Shaun White, supermodel Petra Nemcova, and custom motorcycle designers Orange County Choppers.

According to HP, a limited edition HP Blackbird 002 Dedication Edition will be available for purchase starting September 15.

I had just received my Acer Mini Laptop a few days ago when I ordered it from “Ecom Electronics”. Being 8.9 inches across and holding endless possibilities, this computer is perfect for someone who likes to travel but doesn't want to carry around all that weight. It met my expectations very well because I imagined it to run slower than a normal computer – but it's about the same! The speed of this computer runs very quickly with 512 MB RAM and a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 Processor. This advanced yet small laptop can do just about everything.

This little laptop has Windows XP plus a quick set up wizard to help you get started. There are no confusing manuals to read or disks to put in the PC. All you have to do is turn it on, while following the easy Wizard prompts. Once you get everything set up, you'll notice one of their best features comes with virus protection. With McAFee Security Center, it's simple to protect your laptop from malicious websites or files. It also has up to date scanning so you don't have to do everything manually. Another handy tool I like about the program is the Parental Controls
are adjustable.

I am not just writing an Acer Mini Laptop review to give the good news, but also some cons. I'm always writing articles, so I was a bit weary to see they did not include the full version of Microsoft Office. Yes, the Acer laptop does come with this software but you can only have the trial version for 25 days. However, there are still writing tools available like Wordpad, Notepad, and Microsoft Word Processor.

One other thing that I havn't mentioned is their games. They have about two different game sets rather than one. For example, in the Acer Game Zone are a few games like Cake Mania, Chicken Invaders, Fizzball and more. Located in the regular Games menu is Pin Ball, Hearts, Internet Spades and Solitaire.

The only problem I have encountered with the Acer Laptop is that the screen resolution is too small and there are only two settings for it. Whenever I go to Internet Explorer, all the font is tiny. It would be nice if they could fix that in the future because sometimes I find myself squinting. Also, if you are looking to save your files one day you will discovery that this laptop does not accept discs of any kind. You can use a flash drive for the Acer Mini laptop just fine. I hope this little Acer Mini Laptop Review contributed to you.

He came home that day with a big smile on his face, and the wrinkled soccer sign-up flyer in tow.  Little did I know what he was about to show me would change our daily routine for the next two months. 

“Mom, please!  I really want to play!''  He said so enthusiastically!  Who was I to say no to an 8 year old asking a question that way?

“You have never played any sports!  You do know that there is going to be lots of hard work ahead of you? There will be no quitting until the season is over.”  I replied cautiously.  However, all I got in return was a big head nod for a yes, and a half toothless smile that melted my heart.

So, that next Saturday morning found us with all the other children and parents at the U-8 soccer sign-up booth, paying fees and learning what team we would be cheering for.  My son's excitement about it all, I must admit, made me just as anxious to get the season started.  

Did the season get started so quickly, too?  Time sure did fly by!  There were major struggles at the very beginning, as one would expect with any child just entering a sports routine.  With practice only twice a week, and the first game only 2 weeks after the first team practice, there was little time for struggle.  We had to get through learning all the basics of soccer, and then a little bit of physical strength training (i.e. running).   There was that practice when the running was just a little too much and we had to leave early because of a belly ache!  There was also that practice where coach got a little frustrated with my son for not being able to “dribble” the ball just as well as he had in the last practice.  The “pressure” really became a lot for me as well as my son, and he really began to doubt this position he had so enthusiastically put himself into.  Quitting the team became a popular topic to discuss at the dinner table. 

However, gentle reminders of what he had wanted that day he brought me that flyer home helped to ease the urge for him to just quit it all.   There were several late nights of dad and son in the backyard working on “soccer skills” that helped him perform better in practice and in games.  There were cancelled appointments and plans to be able to fit all of the soccer requirements in our schedule.  This all came down to that one moment that made it all worth our while.  I was able to stand on the sideline and cheer my little boy on when he scored his first goal in a game that brought victory for the team.  The sacrifice had been so worthwhile, indeed.  When I ask him, “Son, are you ready for next season?”  I get a big head nod for a yes, and a half toothless smile that melts my heart.

So, when your child comes home asking asking “Please!”!  Don't pass judgment by replying with a sudden no.  Think about how it could just maybe be all worth your time!

1899 Hoffenheim Fussball Trikot

December 6, 2006 

After some struggles to earn promotion to the Bundesliga 1, Munich 1860 signed another American, reports Kicker. Striker, Josh Wolff, will be relied on to score goals in close matches to help the team escape second division soccer.

The Lions are currently only four points short of earning promotion. The team counts on a strong backline led by American defender, Gregg Berhalter, who appeared for the U.S. National Team in World Cups 2002 and 2006.

The former captain of Energie Cottbus helped the East German team climb into the Bundesliga 1 last season, only to remain in the Bundeliga 2 by signing with Munich 1860.

Wolff will join his American comrade after several successful campaigns in Major League Soccer. Wolff was a Fire original and played 84 matches for Chicago. While in the Windy City, the young striker tallied 32 goals.

After his success in Chicago, the Georgia native moved to Kansas City to play for the Wizards. While with the Wizards, Wolff put in 27 goals in 80 matches. 

In 2003, Wolff suffered a meniscus tear and ankle injury which slowed his blistering pace significantly. However, the forward finished his last three MLS seasons healthy. Wolff scored 25 goals in the past three seasons with the Wizards and all but maxed out his salary under the league's tight cap.

Like most European teams, 1860 only signed the striker to an 18 month contract. The reasons for the short contract are multi-fold.

Few European teams will give any player pushing 30 more than a one year deal. The belief is by that age most players, especially forwards, are finished. Wolff is 29.

Munich 1860 also struggles with budget issues. Despite the team's recent success, previous pushes toward the “Big Show” have hurt Munich's funds. The team simply can't afford to issue a big contract.

Wolff is an American. Although signing American players is becoming more common in Europe, it is still viewed as a gamble. Despite appearing in two World Cups, Munich will keep in mind that he only scored once in both.

For Wolff, this move is elementary. His salary is largely fixed in the MLS, and he's still fairly young. For the forward to start preparing for retirement, he needed to go abroad. This move will help him further develop his on-field smarts and ideally help him establish a comfortable nest egg.

The day after Blanc’s final game as the coach of Bordeaux, the club released an official notice confirming Blanc’s departure and his tenure as the France coach after South Africa (pictured below).  While this isn’t really a surprise since Blanc’s “good friend” and former Bleus 98 teammate, Didier Deschamps, practically spilled the beans earlier this week in an interview with L’Equipe.

Blanc, himself, refused to confirm on his acceptance of the position before Bordeaux finished its final workout session which took place on Sunday morning.  Bordeaux, who have Blanc officially contracted to work with them until June 2011, are expected to be compensated by the French Football Federation for releasing Blanc from his contract.  

The announcement of Domenech’s successor by the FFF has raised eyebrows among fans and the current Les Bleus team.  The French captain, Thierry Henry, has been very open in his distaste for this announcement being made before the World Cup.  But, the FFF, unsurprisingly, refused to listen to public opinion and insisted the announcement take place.

Blanc’s reign will not begin until after the South Africa World Cup when Domenech’s contract with the FFF runs out.  And while France fans are optimistic, Blanc will be joining the Bleus on a bit of a sad note in his career.  Bordeaux, which he led to a historic double league and cup title last year, has not faired nearly as well this year- not even qualifying for the Europa League.  The club, in its statement shifted part of the responsibility for the club’s failures this season on the FFF, blaming

“members of the FFF” for “prejudicial statements”which, according to the club, “undoubtedly affected (his) end of season (…) and beyond, future seasons. “

In a statement, the FFF President Escalettes said that he was “delighted” in the “declaration of interest” from Blanc and invoked Blanc’s experience and history with Les Bleus.

“The sporting past, personality, charisma of Laurent Blanc fit the profile-type of coach that the FFF National Research want after the World Cup in South Africa.”

Regardless of his last season at Bordeaux this season, France has been looking forward to Blanc’s confirmation nearly as much as they are looking forward to Domenech leaving the post.  The appointment of Blanc should be formalized by the FFF by May 20 (Federal Council) or May 29 (general meeting).

And please, learn how to read our name from the paper, its quite insulting for us :/ And the toughest group is in my opinion group D, all the countries are quite evenly matched.

    Mas quanto a seu comentário em Brasil vs Portugal bem estará um 50/50, isto estará bom, quis vê-los jogar-se no ano passado mas fucking França eliminou ambos deles no ano passado agora eu poderei ver os encarar-se. Então veremos quem comer o cachorro-quente, Você ou Me!

    Antes de tudo eu sou português meio que você pode dizer que sôo como um gângster de latino porque sou latino meio me, mas não mexicano que eu não ocupo-me de ser chicano, é frio. Mas sou peruano meio e infelizmente eles não o fizeram à Chávena Mundial. Mas meu Portugal fez e meus EUA também fizeram desde que nasci nos EUA.

Football (soccer) fans are preparing for the FIFA World Cup in South Africa next month, but right now another football World Cup is going on – in Gaza. While Palestine may not be able to send a team to South Africa, a Palestine team is competing against foreign residents of Gaza who have formed teams representing their countries, in a tournament being played over the first two weeks of May. Palestinian bloggers are thrilled by the tournament – and two of them managed to attend a match.

The website of the Gaza World Cup explains what it's all about:

Currently 1.6 million Palestinians are held in geopolitical limbo while Gaza struggles under a multifaceted siege. Gazan involvement in international sporting events, and indeed many arguably more important activities, remains nearly impossible for the foreseeable future. The Gaza Strip is, inexplicably, excluded from the rest of the world. In the spirit of banding together, the “Gaza World Cup” is a highly inclusive project that aspires to remind the Gazan community, as well as the rest of the world, that we share more in common than political adversity. Specifically, a two-week football tournament is scheduled for the first half of May, 2010, in which approximately 200 Gazan professional football players will join together with 200 foreigner amateurs to compose 16 different “national” teams in the quest to win the “Gaza World Cup” – an artistic trophy handmade from the twisted iron of Gaza. Forming the core of the Gaza World Cup will be a partnership between 16 professional football clubs in Gaza and an equal number of foreigner amateurs residing in Gaza for various humanitarian purposes.

The students writing at Life on Bir Zeit Campus (Birzeit is a university in the West Bank) think the tournament is a great idea:

We're far superior than y'all who are counting down the days until the World Cup in South Africa commences because a more important and more high-profile world cup is happening right now! ‘Tis called…the Gaza World Cup. Unfortunately for us, we can't be there in person to witness history, what with all the occupation borders limitations permits and the rest of that jazz, but we have little things like Internet and Television Sets to observe the games keenly. We're picturing normal people with normal bodies and normal (or less than) fitness levels, as opposed to the Adonis yummy six pack professional athletes, playing a good game of football. It's so cute! And really great…Palestine for the World Cup!

Haitham Sabbah, a Palestinian blogger based in Bahrain, says:

It seems that football fans might be able to do what Arab governments have miserably failed to achieve or even address: lifting the illegal inhuman Israeli siege of Gaza!

Two young Gaza bloggers were excited to have the chance to attend their first football match, the second match of the tournament. Lina Al Sharif, who blogs at Live From Gaza, was surprised to be able to go:

Stadiums in Gaza are for men. Girls going to a football match is not a familiar thing. So, my friend and I were worried that our parents would not let us go. Surprisingly, my father gave me the permission, assuming that I would be bored and leave at once. Excited I was though I am not a fan of football. But that didn’t mean that I didn’t want to try the feeling of being in a football ground watching people cheering over men passing a ball.

The match was at 5 p.m . We didn’t want to be all 3 girls going to a men territory alone, so the brothers of friends came with us. (though they are way younger than us!) The 3 scarf wearing girls were darted with looks of “WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?” by the guards of the playground. They thought we were journalists, but we innocently said that “We are here because we want to watch the game”. Still surprised, but they gave us seats where the foreign supporters were as we literally were the only girls except for a few girls who came later.

You can read about the match itself at Lina's post. She concludes:

It was a special day for us. A new experience that brought us as close as possible to a football match. The Gaza World Cup is a project that many would underestimate its value. But the idea of this event hits the core of the Gaza plight…the siege. Many do not think of the Gaza youngsters and their need to play sports. This event provides Gazans some sense of solidarity mixed with the entertainment of a football match.

Lina posted a short video she took during the match:

Amal is Lina's friend, and she writes at Hopeingaza about attending the match:

It was really amazing how the foreigners [in Gaza] were so supportive for this world cup thing, I thought they would have never take such matter seriously and to them it’s but a trifling thing, but on the contrary they came and supported us and it meant the world to me and to all the Palestinians. Going to a football match was one of the wishes I had on my wish list to go watch a football match abroad because I knew there could never be a football match in Gaza, but in Gaza I fulfilled one of my wishes in the Gaza world cup 2010.. this world cup is like a shout to the outer world who are watching us suffer under the siege not able to do anything like crippled people, that we can do it..
