The first season in the Premier League of my Southampton story is still very hard for me. The results are very different but mostly sad. Though we still create rather many moments in every match due to usage of 4-3-3 attacking tactics. Here I have brilliant 4:1 away victory over Derby, fantastic 5:3 with Liverpool, good 2:1 with Aston VIlla and very important, hard 2:1 win over rival Tottenham Hotspurs in FA Cup. On the other hand there were really disappointing losses like 1:6 to Chelsea and 1:4 to Newcastle. It was also very pity to loose the game with Manchester City with the hockey score 4:5 when my Southampton was leading all the match through. By the way, look at the results of December: 2:4, 5:3, 4:5, 1:6 .... Seems like I manage some kind of hockey team!!!! :))) A

She’s manipulative. She’s funny. She’s outgoing. She’s smart, oh that child is smart. She’s stubborn. She’s strong willed. She’s independent. If she’s thinking it, chances are I thought it to at some point in my life.

Somewhere in the afterlife, Charlton Heston weeps. With the help of the National Rifle Association and labor unions, a law was approved in the Florida Senate 26-13 that would prohibit business owners from banning guns locked in motor vehicles on their private property.The only companies that are exempt from this law are nuclear power plants, prisons, schools, and companies whose business involves homeland security.However, many business groups opposed the policy because, in this economy, the more people they are going to have to lay off, the better the chance the disgruntled employee will simply get his shotgun out of his car in the parking lot and...you know the rest.If the governor signs the bill, we can then start taking bets when the first occurrence of a mass workplace shooting will a
Nipah virus, a new and deadly brain and lung disease, emerged from Singapore and Malaysia ten years ago, and it is now spreading into rural India and Bangladesh. It kills up to three-quarters of the people who become infected in some outbreaks.
People are catching the disease by drinking date palm juice or eating fruit contaminated by the virus, or through contact with infected animals.
Fruit bats are a natural reservoir of Nipah virus, and the first outbreaks began when pigs on farms ate fruit which had been bitten by infected bats and dropped near their pens. An epidemic spread across the Asian peninsula due to the pig trade.
