Reaching the AFC championship game in their first year under coach John Harbaugh was quite an accomplishment for the Baltimore Ravens, who successfully rebounded from a 5-11 season to get within a victory of the Super Bowl.No one expected much from the Ravens, who had a rookie quarterback, an inexperienced head coach and put 19 players on injured reserve -- second-most in the NFL. Yet they won 13

On the latest Edge Magazine, there is an interview with Hideo Kojima, in which he states he is disappointed how the game turned out...here are a few cut outs from it;"Game-wise, it's pretty close to the original vision: you sneak into the battlefield and can choose whether to do a stealth game or interfere with the battle more directly. But the graphic, side things like motion-blending and the size of the map, totally was not accomplished to my original vision - to my satisfaction.""When we first showed the game engine at TGS, the staff were really proud and happy. PS3 was a dream machine, y'know, and we were going to work on this and that - and we had so many ideas. But when we actually started developing the game, we realized there were a lot of restrictions and so it turned out how you

Kentucky Education Commissioner Jon Draud was disappointed with the allotment of money lawmakers set aside for school funding."We're certainly not going to move forward," Draud said.Draud said he doesn't yet have complete details, but believes that SEEK funding -- the $3 billion in state money used for day-to-day operations in local school districts -- will continue at the current level for both years of the next biennium.If that is true, Draud said, "it's taking a giant step backwards.""It will be extremely difficult to reach proficiency (goals) by 2014," he said. "I certainly don't think it's fair to our teachers. We've made a lot of progress in this state."Draud noted that "the option of the cigarette tax was there" to increase revenue.This from PolWatchers.

I have never been a fan of The Times, but this is disgusting what they have fabricated, they should be ashamed to have participate in such an unethical spreading of lies.

Last year, I was disappointed when NaBloPoMo ended because I had so much to write about and I felt like I needed a push in the right direction. This year, I'm disappointed because I wanted to write about so many different things, and never found the time. This year it felt more like a chore, something I HAD to finish and dragged my feet about. So I never got around to posting my ultrasound photo, never wrote about finding out the sex of our new baby, never posted a pregnant belly photo, never wrote about Elliot's birthday party or birthday, you didn't hear about our Thanksgiving, I didn't tell you about the great book I just finished, or write about my thoughts on being baptised. And I guess that's OK. Now I'll blog in my own time and hopefully be more interesting. Well done to anyone else who have completed the challenge... sorry I didn't do more commenting.

We are going to my in-laws for Thanksgiving dinner soon. I have debated all day on what to wear. What would Tim Gunn say? I know what he would say- the sweatsuit alternative, that comfortable yet stylish outfit every woman should have in her closet to be worn on a day you might normally throw on sweats.
Ahh Tim, my love, I’m afraid you’ll be so ashamed of me today. My in-laws like to cook, and they do it well. And there will be food. Tons and tons of food. Waistbands will strain to the point of the snaps begging for mercy. Bellies will swell, and at the end of it all, we’ll collapse onto the couch like a bunch of bloated turkeys ourselves.
Forgive me Tim, just for today, only sweats will do.

This bird is very disappointed in you. He put all of his faith in you and what do you do? You drop the ball. You let the whole team down. You made your grandmother cry.
This bird has never been especially eloquent, nor has he been adept in psychological effects of harsh criticism of children, but he’s doing his best. He knows you are a disappointment, and he is doing his damndest to let you know it, and make you feel guilty and bad about yourself. It’s how he was brought up, and he turned out okay, are you saying you are less a man than he is? You can’t take a little friendly criticism?
Okay, so maybe he was a little harsh. He didn’t have to call you a useless coward that will never amount to anything, and he certainly didn’t have to bring your family into it. The comment about your mother being a whore was particularly out of line. But, as I said before, he is just doing what he thinks is right. And hey, stop turning this around on him, this is about you. You blew it. You w
Well there will be no battle of the teams in this Dutch household. The Yankees lost in their fourth game, 6-4. The Indians take on the Red Sox on Friday in Boston. I am happy for Dutchie, her team makes the next step to the World Series but my goodness was I disappointed! I mean, you have to know they tried when it came to the bat but pitching left much to be desired! Wang started the game and let four runs in after only an inning and a half. What a way to start the game! I really don’t know what Torre was thinking when he put him in as starter when he did crap the first game against the Indians.
And as if the ball club didn’t have enough to deal with as far as the sharp sting of losing, George Steinbrenner isn’t sure he is keeping Torre! He gave him a message, win this or else. The Boss has spoken. On top of that A-Rod might not wear the stripes after this! A handful of ball clubs are willing to pay him up to thirty million a season to have him. His record is amazin

Acer: PC Industry 'Disappointed' with VistaAcer president Gianfranco Lanci today became the first major PC manufacturer to openly attack Microsoft over the Windows Vista operating system. He was quoted in the Financial Times Deutschland.Lanci said the operating system was riddled with problems and gave users and businesses no reason to buy a new PC, according to the report. Taiwan-based Acer is the world's fourth-largest PC manufacturer, after HP, Dell and Lenovo. "The whole industry is disappointed with Windows Vista," Lanci said.Despite the long wait between Windows XP and Vista, the latest operating system still lacks maturity, he said. "Stability is certainly a problem," he said. Users are voting with their feet, Lanci said, so that the Vista launch has had the smallest impact on PC sales of any version of Windows in the history of PC manufacturing. He added the situation didn't look likely to change in the next six months. Many business customers have specifically asked for

I got very disappointed and sad today. I keep hoping and hoping and I forget about reality.I thought that I could be sure that my dad would show up at my 30th birthday party but apperantly I was wrong. I thought that of course he would want to be there and celebrate it with me, but I was wrong. He and his new wife are prioritizing their money elsewhere and my birthday is not that important to them. They are putting their money on a mediterranean cruise (which by the way will be at least ten times more expensive than a trip to Sweden would be) which means they can´t afford to come and visit me on my birthday. I wonder if there would be the same priorization if it would be his new wifes daughters birthday? I seriously doubt it.It is a long time since I last felt so small and so insignificant. If my dad does not feel that my birthday is important then why should I? I guess he does not understand how significant he is in my life. He does not understand how unworthy he can make me feel by

It's been a mixed day really and a slight loss of 0.5%. I started the day by laying Sergio at 1.5 with a liability of 1% (winning 2%). I think Sergio is a great player but pressure is a funny thing and with the amount of class in the field I felt at 1.5 he was worth a small lay. I left that going for a while and I concentrated on racing.River Thames got me off to a lovely start and I was 3% up and feeling confident about my next lay of Celtic Change. Whilst I'm his least favourite fan, it appears he rode an excellent race on Celtic Change to get him up to win. I lost 4.5% on that race leaving me 1.5% down for the racing. I'd been monitoring the golf and had planned if Sergio hit 3.0 (2/1) I would trade out and leave myself with a green screen. I backed him for 1% and I have a 1% profit regardless if he goes onto win or lose. A nice position to be in.It's been my first loss on the racing for quite a few days and I can't help but feel disappointed but I know I can't win everyday an
I was disappointed yesterday. No mail. I have been expecting a return letter from Judy Neeley anytime now. I hope she isnt mad at me or something. You never know. These girls have a tendency to flip on you at the drop of a dime. Speaking of the ones that flip, Ive contemplated contacting Beth Markman. She initially got mad at me in 2005 when I told her someone from the state of PA had contacted me. It was some lady looking for a support group to donate some money to her. But for some reason Beth didn't like that shed contacted me and flipped out. She calmed down and the flipped again when she asked me what I had found printed on her online. So I found an article and printed it out. She lost her mind and got pissed off at me because Id sent her the article and it had a bunch of other girls info on it as well. That enraged her. She was so mad at me. Suddenly Im getting letters from every chick on death row in Pennsylvania. They all told me how stupid and callous I am. That I have no hea

Indian cricket was shocked by the national team's poor World Cup showing
The secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has admitted he was "taken aback" by Graham Ford's decision to turn down the chance to coach India's national team.
Niranjan Shah told the Hindu newspaper he expected Ford to leave his post as director of cricket after the BCCI offered him the prized job.
Ford said on Monday his decision had been the right one "for me and my family" but Shah admitted he was "extremely disappointed" by the popular South African's decision.
"I can tell you that he did not make any demands. He neither asked for his own support staff, nor did he ask for a two-year term. He appeared happy with what was given to him. The only doubt was about `when' he would join the team, not 'whether'."
Shah expressed his frustration with Ford, adding: "He could have taken stock of the situation, whatever his problems were, in the beginn
Leeds, June 9 (IANS) It was actress Shilpa Shetty’s 32nd birthday Friday, but she was so busy that she had little time for the ‘private’ party in the evening and made a brief ‘guest appearance’, minutes before midnight at the Victoria Quarters here.
The media were strictly kept off the event, organised by International Indian Film Acamedy (IIFA), as it was supposed to be a private event for her to celebrate her birthday in the company of other celebrities from the film fraternity and other invited guests.
But it turned out to be almost a public affair with over 250 guests turning up.
Celebrities like Preity Zinta, Bobby Deol, Upen Patel, Jay Sean did not stay long when they realised that the private birthday party had taken on a rather different colour. Quite a few stars were also upset at the way they were being mobbed and hunted for pictures and autographs.
One visibly harassed celebrity said: “We were told that this was a private party. We are ha

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee Titans running back LenDale White did not make it back in time for Tuesday’s organized team workouts, leaving coach Jeff Fisher unclear about White’s whereabouts.
“Everybody else managed to make it back,” Fisher said. “He didn’t, so I don’t know, I guess he had things that are more important to him than what we’re doing. I would assume he would be back at some point today.”

I was able to wait a few months for agloco to launch. I was happy to promote to get an initial downline of 300+ because the agloco administration said it would launch months ago. Now all thats happening is that people are loosing interest and slowly beginning to drift elseware. Every email I receive is just more and more promises of ‘launching next month’, and excuses. I read the guy’s website who has 20k+ referrals in agloco… I think its all very well having an amazing amount of referrals, but what use is it if you can’t even earn.
One thing that really shocked and disappointed me was that the last email update said that even when the viewbar was released to all members - We wouldn’t see any money for over 2 months!!! Its logical in a business sense, but people will only stand around waiting for so long. Could agloco flop? Its possible.
It has become obvious to me that agloco has been very poorly planned and could possibly be a big waste of time. T
