Arsenal star Cesc Fabregas rubbished rumors of a move away from Ashburton Grove despite having visited Barcelona last Wednesday.The player, who started his career at the Barcelona youth academy, has been heavily linked with a move back to the Camp Nou. He was rested for Arsenal's 0-0 draw with Slavia Prague, but surprised many by spending his break with Alex Hleb in Barcelona, watching the Spanish giants defeat Rangers, courtesy of a goal from former Arsenal talisman Thierry Henry.Arsene Wenger was the first person to play down the Barcelona link, completely dismissing the reports."This is no story," he said. "Fabregas is under contract with us. If Barcelona want to buy any player under contract then I’ll give them my phone number. But I think they have it because they just bought Thierry Henry."When asked if he would consider an offer, the reply was simple: "No chance."But there's only so much a coach can do to keep a player at a club, and Cesc Fabregas had always said that he wou
Nicolas Anelka says there is no unrest in the Bolton dressing room and says Wanderers will finish in the top 10 at least. Bolton have had a poor start to the season and not only do they sit second from bottom in the table but there is constant speculation doing the rounds that all is not well behind the scenes. "Top 10. I think it is possible and I think everyone will be happy with that," Anelka revealed. "Yes, a top 10 finish - even more, you never know. We have only just started the Premier League season, so we still have 30 games."I don't think we need to change anything. We just need a bit of luck. If we win two games in a row the confidence will be there, will come back, and we will start to play better because we are winning games. When you are winning games, you are more confident and you win and you win."We should be higher because we have a good team and good players. We changed the manager and we changed the way we played. I can see it on the pitch that we are playing better
Ayman Nour will stay in jail for a long time as it seems , some one does not know want him back free to the political arena very soon. Just from couple of days , a key witness in Ayman Nour's case , the primary eye witness who sent him by his testimony to jail was found dead in his cell at prison The interior ministry said that he committed Suicide , that is the official statement the government is promoting Before we go to any details ,I think I told you before there is a gap between the people and the regime in Egypt and that we do not believe easily their official statements especially when it concern political opponents and leaders with popularity like Ayman Nour and MB As soon as it was announced on the net that Ayman Ismail ,the key eye witness was found dead in his cell as a result of suicide ,the Internet was full of conspiracy theories .

Replacing baby boomers who retire presents a continuing problem for companies in the Pittsburgh region. And there is no easy solution in sight. Our universities and colleges attract many young students to Pittsburgh, but after graduation they leave in droves for jobs elsewhere.
The Coro Report of April 2003 showed that between 1980 and 2000, the population of 20- to 34-year-olds in the 10-county Pittsburgh region dropped by more than 200,000 for a 32 percent decline from 1980 levels. Between 1990 and 2000, the region experienced another 6 percent drop.
Of the solutions offered to this dilemma, few, if any, have focused on the need for Pittsburgh companies to restructure traditional corporate culture to make it more acceptable to younger employees.
In the past 25-plus years, I have consulted with corporate leaders throughout the United States and in more than 30 countries around the globe. I have seen them create corporate environments that attract the most talented, younger people whil

What the Leaf really need now is for Tucker to return soon from his foot injury.
