Later he was pictured leaving the Allianz Arena on crutches with his right foot kept in a protective boot.The striker - whose England World Cup hopes rest - was injured in the dying seconds last night after Gomez stepped on his right foot. He will be evaluated in Munich and flown home, although a full can probably take place in England.
Rooney is almost certainly the central Barclays Premier League title Saturday clash with Chelsea.A statement on the United website read: "Rooney is not back on the team to travel to the Allianz Arena, rather than separate rooms with security guards. His right foot was in a protective boot."
The sight of him limping off fears came to South Africa, especially when he suffered a metatarsal injury in the same way four years ago almost to the day.United led by a 64-second Rooney goal, but an equalizer from Franck Ribery - deflected in off Rooney - and a stoppage-time winner of Ivica Olic, the German side victory.Rooney, who was also booked, was injured in the run up to the winning goal.United manager Sir Alex Ferguson said: "Wayne has got a kick on the ankle. We do not know how serious it is."United sought to remove the fears that Rooney had broken his foot again, but he left the Allianz Arena on crutches with his right leg in a brace.Ferguson was in no mood to lay off his team to a defeat at the quarter-final tie delicate balance going into the second Wednesday leavesHe said: "We never played well and gave the ball away all night. This is not like us. The winning goal was a terrible.'At least we have an away goal. Bayern have a great chance but at home we should trust. Our goalkeeper made saves time and time again and kept us up. "Bayern coach Louis van Gaal is the absence of Rooney could be crucial.The Dutchman said: "He is their key player and if you looked at the statistics you would United their second highest scorer had seen their opponents. They had 11 own goals. That is how important Rooney is.

UFC 111 results

UFC 111 results:

Matthew Riddle d. Greg Soto via DQ:

After Riddle won the first two rounds, but in the third, Soto Riddle kicked up with a kick that fell while Riddle was an illegal blow. The doctor stopped the match, because the side of the face swelled to Riddle's Elephant Man proportions.

Jared Hamann d. Rodney Wallace via decision:

Boring fight, with the show off to a slow start with a DQ and this fight. All three judges scored it 29-28 for for Hamann. All three judges gave Wallace the first round.

Rousimar Palhares d. Tomasz Drwal via submission to a heel hook:

It seemed Drwal slipped throwing a kick about one minutes in the first round and Palhares immediately hit on the heel hook. Drwal tapped immediately, but Palhares kept it up, even after the ref tried to pry him out. Another place that makes the sport seem poor. Palhares apologized after the game.

Ricardo Almeida d. Matt Brown via submission to a triangle:

Brown just danced around and did not seem to want to do something, if we get another boring fight. Almeida him trapped in a body triangle in the second round, Brown got the choke and tapped out.

Nate Diaz deceased Rory Markham via ref stop:

Halfway through the first round, Diaz started connecting with punches. Markham was beaten down by a knee and Diaz just wailed away on him until the ref stopped. Diaz looked like a star, because it Markham offset by £ 30.

Jim Miller deceased Mark Bocek via decision:

This fight could have gone either way. A large back-and-forth fight. All three judges scored it 29-28 for Miller.

Jon Fitch d. Ben Saunders by decision:

Shane Carwin d. Frank Mir for the interim heavyweight title:

Carwin Mir forced against the cage halfway round one and just unloaded on him with punches. It was just vicious. Mir went down and Carwin did not. The ref had to stop before someone got killed. And who is the cage? Brock Lesnar. Lesnar takes the microphone and says that Carwin belt wearing a fake and that his (Lesnar's) belt was the real title belt. Carwin actually agree with him. It is for July 3.

Georges St-Pierre deceased Dan Hardy via unanimous decision:

Judges scored it 50-43, 50-44 and 50-45.

Sun & Earth Day, Magnetic Magic

Sun & Earth Day, Magnetic Magic:
Saturday, March 20th, was not only Vernal Equinox, but the annual Sun-Earth Day: a NASA effort promoted around the country to focus attention on the special connections between the Sun and the Earth. This year's theme: Magnetic Storms! That gave me a lot to work with-Sun-Earth Day usually does, but the opportunity to create more hands-on experiences for our visitors, the better, and when it comes to curious natural phenomena, magnetism is a fertile subject for all sorts or seemingly magical fun. So, I turned Chabot's Chemistry / Physics Magnetism laboratory classroom into a public, giving visitors a chance to learn, or relearn, some of the basics of magnets, as well as to connect the tabletop experiments to phenomena that take place on enormous scales on the Sun and the Earth. First was magnetic polarity: playing with a set of magnets, visitors got a feel for the behavior of magnetic poles N and S-and how opposite poles attract and like poles repel. (It's always fun to feel the pull of attraction between two magnets, but there's something extraordinary about the feeling of repulsion push-your mind just expects to see little bumpers on the magnets, but there's seemingly nothing there!) The Earth itself is a giant magnet, as most of us know, but what many of the adults found surprising and intriguing is the polarity of Earth's magnetic field. Using small magnetic compasses, we sought out the Earth's magnetic poles: north and south. By taking careful notice of which type of magnetic pole pointed to the compass needle ends, the fact that the magnetic pole of the Earth up near the geographic north pole is a south-or 'S'-magnetic pole was revealed! This is why in physics we are often careful to refer to magnetic poles as 'S' and 'N', not north and south, to avoid confusion. At another station, visitors made their own magnetic compasses by singing an iron nail stuck through a Styrofoam packing peanut and floating it in a bowl of water. Darned if that did not nail stubbornly turn to floating point in the same direction, no matter what direction we tried to turn it! Station 3 was about mapping the invisible magnetic force field surrounding various magnets. Human eyes can not see magnetic fields, but they are there and have an influence. I had constructed magnetic field mapping devices for this purpose: used CD jewel cases, labeling with paper removed, filled with a SPRINKLING or iron filings. When shaken gently back and forth, as if panning for gold, the iron filings align and connect in gritty little strings and according to the pattern of the magnetic field. The strong converging field at the two poles of a magnet were boldly evident, but also to be seen were the more tenuous curls of field lines arcing through the space around the magnet. The patterns formed by the filings were very similar to the patterns seen in images of Sunspots we compared them to. On the Sun, it is not iron filings that trace the invisible magnetic fields for us to see, but hot, electrically charged gas, or plasma (mostly hydrogen and helium, but also traces of calcium, iron, and other elements). Electric charges (electrons and ionized atomic nuclei) are strongly affected by magnetic fields when they move through them. Numerous ultraviolet images of the Sun were available on computer screens around the lab for visitors to compare the magnetic patterns and shapes to. We had more: building from an electro magnet wire, an iron nail, and a battery. This demonstrates how magnetic fields are created by moving electric charge in the electrically-conductive wire of the electro magnet in the circulation of electrical current inside the Earth's iron core, and in the motions of plasma on the Sun. It's all moving electricity, friend. We also conducted "Magnetic Yacht Races: Pushing through the repulsion of like poles, a floating, magnetized" yacht "across a pound or water. The challenge of propelling and steering the yacht yachts led to some interesting designs, certain configurations of packing peanuts and iron nails proved easier to accelerate and maneuver than others. Sun Happy Earth Day 2010! I wonder what we'll be doing next year.

Devotion

Devotion:
Again it comes into view that people are just typing in the word devotion into the search engine of their choice to see what all pops up in the results. Whether it, a song that you Aos, AORE or looking for a video clip that I think you will have to be a little more specific than just that to get what you want. So, since there isn, any AOT band particularly attached to the word or any year in which it might have been released or any particular authors I, aom afraid that I will have to give you the most basic explanation of the word devotion.

Now many of you feel a certain way about the people you love or it may be the job that you do and for the religious and god fearing it might even be just the act of remembering from whence they came but devotion means a certain child or commitment to an ideal, a loved one or an activity. When we talk about devotion it usually comes across as something that allows us to move mountains through

thick and thin for the thing that we are devoted to. We are then referred to as, Äòdevout, ao people, people who see nothing else but the target goal and that they have set for themselves and then it is that act of devotion that gets us to our goals.

Now it can not be measure in meters per say, neither can it be a sentiment felt like it was more of an innate quality that we all hold for things that appeal to us without giving us solid and concrete reasons behind why we are so attracted to answering certain qualms in our lives.

Draft law to reform the health care 101: How much time will it take to repair

Draft law to reform the health care 101: How much time will it take to repair?
WASHINGTON - Even if health care reform legislation passes, the largest health care system reforms will be a year away.

Huh? If Congress approves the bill, and signed by President Obama, does not make it, as you know, and the law of the land?

Yes. Indeed, some of the big changes take place immediately if this happens.

But some of the most important provisions of the draft law, the giant health is not set to take effect until 2014 or even later. As we said in the first installment of this series of easy English on what is in the health bill, the reform of the health care system is great, walking on foot, naive machine Goldbergian.

It will take time to prepare, in writing, and regulations governing their operations.

youâ ll note that the United States by 2014 will have two mid-term elections for Congress. Three, if you count the one that will occur in 2014 in the late itself. And in 2012 thereâ s the matter a little of the President Obamaâ s run for a second term.

thatâ s just like to point out that the implementation of the reform of the health care system can come in a political climate very different from the one that occurs in the corridor. If the bill passes, that is.

Things that happen first.The draft law to reform the health care makes this point to put things in the first, which was supposed to happen first. They are in sub-heading, and reach the top: "immediate improvements in health care coverage for all Americans." Things in the draft law, which applies to the following immediately:

Insurance companies will not prevent a ceiling age - restrictions on how much money can be paid at the end of the day - on their policies. They will face new restrictions on setting a maximum annual, as well.

Insurance companies will also be forbidden to withdraw your coverage, except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation.

Children will be excluded from coverage because of pre-existing health conditions. In addition, children will be able to stay on their parents policy until the age of 26.

Small businesses that provide health coverage for employees will be eligible for tax credits of up to 50 percent of the premium costs.

Older people who fall into the coverage gap or "donut hole", in the middle of Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage plan will receive $ 250 to help pay their bills.

People with pre-existing health conditions will be able to engage in a new image, but temporary, and high national insurance scheme against risks.

Things that happen later.The a key element of the superstructure Obama's health care reform effort is the individual mandate, as described in part one of this series. Will come most people who live in the United States there is a need for health insurance.

But this does not kick in until 2014, when you start the fines for those who do not have coverage.

Similarly, the support is designed to make buying a sensible policy - the subject of Part II of this series - do not start until then. And exchanges in which individuals and small businesses can buy health insurance (you guessed it - Part III) is not supposed to be up and running for four years, either.

In the end, one of the most popular provisions in the bill of health, will be blocked on the denial of insurance coverage because of pre-existing health conditions, do not take effect until 2014 either. This is because insurance companies will need to be a flood of new customers brought in from the state of the individual to reduce the costs of accepting people who already have health problems.

Medicare will pay the health care reform in the red

Medicare will pay the health care reform in the red:
Washington - scorekeepers budget in Congress say the reform of medical care, which included Democrats in earlier versions of health care and a bill that would push it to red.

The Congressional Budget Office said on Friday that the decline of the programmed reduction of fees in health care for doctors will cost $ 208 billion over 10 years. If added to the bill for health care reform, which would wipe out all the deficit reduction, leaving the legislation $ 59 billion in the red.

The so-called reform document is part of the House of Representatives the original bill. Given the high cost, the Democrats decided to continue separately. Republicans say the cost should not be ignored. Usually, Congress had waived the cuts to doctors year after year.

The March Madness tribute to the hoopster who played in mystery

The March Madness tribute to the hoopster who played in mystery:

March Madness serving adult men who wasted huge amounts of precious time carping about the performance of top athletes and coaches. But playing, not watching, is the essence of sport.
Hey, we can pause for a moment in our apprehensions March Madness bracket (up to you, President Obama!) To honor my friend Jerry, streaky outside shooter whose career ended recently with knee replacement surgery at the age of 62?
Jerry did not play for Duke or Syracuse. He never competed for NCAA Division] 1 basketball tournament, won a title or that I know. He did not do anything more impressive. Was able to continue to play forward, and extensively, a full 45 years after getting cut from his team in high school. Now this fact, you deserve to stand!

To understand this concept requires re-routing some to the concept of sport in America.

First, a snapshot of the game Jerry. He was a decent set of skills for a shooting guard. Unfortunately for him, was widespread, and endured a full 6 feet 3in. , A height that may not highlight the ability to compete in tournaments, but on the collective level stadium creates intense peer pressure to the convergence in the vicinity of the ring and not stray too much.

But Jerry likes to stray.

I am happier than ever saw him on the court was when he found himself with his colleagues who were tall or taller. Then, like a cross dresser wearing a sudden release of the skirt in the year, and his true identity as a perimeter-hugging three-point artist been freed.

My very harsh? If so, I do not apologize. Because any assessment amounts to a declaration that the Games illogical played any bets at all are every bit as worthy of such clashes JumboTron ESPN manual throughout the land.

This may not be suitable for all kinds of goods from the time the major disadvantages of sports business, but I want to mention one: adult men who have wasted huge amounts of precious time carping about the performance of top athletes and trainers. They will do themselves and their families and their communities and their nation more good through the application of that excitement for something useful.

Does not really matter if some new staff, the phenomenon of ignoring the man open or if coach John Calipari should keep his mouth shut? Sports lovers are the most helpless consumer group in America and do not have to be Sigmund Freud to see all the screaming on what it is: sublimation, transport, avoidance. The fact that the sports business and industry, which unfortunately includes the NCAA], and appeals so effectively to the mental disorders of the male and thanks to the savvy, but not to cheer about.

There is a boom subculture devoted to mocking the tendency of men (yes, mostly men of the type of drinking beer) to stumble in the coulda-been as a competitor in the type of memory. But even this memory, so easily mocked, are usually rooted in the games and to some extent "matter", where victory was being observed somewhere outside the minds of the players.

Unfortunately, Jerry has a professional such as these fires can not verify the glory. All those games, and certainly in the thousands, and all that goes with skill and workshops outside shots ... Well, you just take our word that the wonderful things that took place in those clubs, the YMCA moldy. You certainly will not find evidence of ESPN Classic.

I digress. In fact, I do not. Because they are interrelated sure, and joy undeclared pick-up soccer players, aging, etc., and the juggernaut hyperbolic sports television with lust greed to serve the expanding population of the couch - spectators potatoes.

As a small protest - against oblivion - I think in the retirement ceremony for Jerry. Of course, there will be a numbered jersey to hang from the rafters, the rafters are not sacred because it is hanged, not press clippings to read aloud or to watch the video. There is a new generation of players to pickup and cunning ways Twitter and YouTube may eventually reverse this deficit, but, so far, and men like Jerry Lee and most of the players I have known will vanish without a trace.

That's cool. We can take it. Because in our hearts and we know the truth, courage: there on the courts and the courts, and an unknown and unannounced, and left behind some of the very best parts of ourselves.

We call it March Madness time. Playing, not watching, is the essence of sport. Forget the last four. What about the applause for Jerry?

Bob Katz is a writer and author of the novel ", and the third Long", which will be published later this spring.

The Pacific

The Pacific:
Los Angeles:Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg swapped war stories of other people for the groundbreaking, the tragic impact in "Saving Private Ryan" and "Band of Brothers."And harsh and visceral shooting battle in World War II is the cooperation of review by the "Pacific", which is Part 10, $ 195 million miniseries debuting Sunday at 9 pm Eastern time the United States on higher vocational education. As it is celebrating the veteran said.
But "the Pacific" carves its own path around the lesser-known theater of war with the likeness of current conflicts. It also breaks the "Band of Brothers" mold after being beaten and battered by Marines home with little to institutionalize a classic World War II film "the best years of our lives.Challenge "was to be human beings and put them through hell, and I wonder how in the world they would approach the world when he returned," said Hanks.
"Section 10 is the first time that we went for it," he said.
Higher vocational education in the new series was born from its predecessor, 2001 acclaimed, Emmy-winning "Band of Brothers", and that dramatic true story of a company of paratroopers fighting in Europe.
"We just tell the story of a partial 'Band," said Spielberg. "My relatives used to say for me .. and we all fought in the Pacific region. This is a different story, and jungle warfare."
The father of the director, Arnold, and clashed with the Japanese in Burma and an uncle B - 29s flew over Japan. Other Pacific Theater veterans wrote to Spielberg, "wanted me to tell them the story."
Challenge for the executive producers Hanks and director Steven Spielberg and Gary Goetzman is that the conflict between the United States and Japan expand through a series of remote islands, and lacks the features that gave the European "Band of Brothers" in the immediate intimacy.
Men "and the Pacific" fought for dirt on Guadalcanal, New Britain, Pavuvu, Peleliu and Iwo Jima. In the series opens shortly after the of 1941 the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, and keep track of three Marines and ending youth on the home front in 1946 after the surrender of Japan.
"You can see who these men were before they come to war, where they came from, why they want to get there .... you can see how to get out of it, and if they did at all," said Joe cast member Mazilu. "You get the full scope of what it's like to be U.S. Marines at the time."
Mazilu, such as his co-stars, playing a true member of the First Marine Division. In the series focuses on Eugene B. Sledge (Mazilu) and Robert Leckie (James Badge Dale), both privates and writers of memoirs, which were used in the development of miniseries, as well as Sgt. John Basilone (Jon Seda), and the Medal of Honor.
"The hardest part was filming these men and try to tell their stories honestly," said Dale, a sentiment echoed by Mazilu SEDAN During a joint interview.
Even as the producers promised to go deep into the truth of the Pacific, and if the fight against U.S. troops emerged as the hero or not, Goetzman, the producer realized that at the end of the day, "you just can not help but have such respect for this unabiding vets" .
According to Hanks, theater and the Pacific, which faced was very different from the one Union.
"The war in the Pacific was more like the wars that we have witnessed since that time, the war on racism and terrorism, a war of absolute horror, both in the battlefield and those living in normal circumstances," he said.In addition to the suffering faced by the soldiers, and there are scenes in the series depicts Japan's forced use of civilians on the islands to become suicide bombers ready. In one scene, a woman blew up a bomb body; baby in her hands."We want the public to be prepared that there is a level of brutality in the 'Pacific' which are more intense than it was in the 'group of brothers," said Spielberg.
"Anything less than the graphic nature of the war, or for that matter, any war, will have been met by scorn by those veterans who fought in it," he said. "It would be just one of the most Hollywoodized filming an event that is tearing your body ... and often does not create even the memory of your existence, and in the war, and this is what will happen."
Co-executive producer, Bruce McKenna, a writer who started looking for "Pacific" Shortly after the work "a group of brothers," The violence is historically accurate.
Okinawa was the site of "most terrible fight which the Americans fought in World War II," he said. "And there were 8 million artillery rounds, one every second."The estimated number of deaths, according to several historical accounts, including more than 100,000 Japanese troops, at least 75,000, and severity of more than 12,000 U.S. troops.
I stood in Australia for more than a series' sites, including the war zones and scenes of the United States, within one year of photography in the period 2007-2008. More than 90 sets had been built, with 62,000 tons of earth excavated in a quarry outside of Melbourne for the construction of Iwo Jima and Okinawa battlefield.
There were six writers and six directors on this project, with retired Marine Captain Dale Day as a military adviser as he did in "Band of Brothers."Actors recognize that the circumstances did not suit the actual war, but with that infernal.
"You were not comfortable that the appointment for one day," said Mazilu, with 110 degree weather that made it against the burning of clothes and skin with the unending parade of flies "in an attempt to get on the nose, and eyes".
"They really CGI'ed of flies because there were too many on our faces," said Seda, using the abbreviation for the computer to generate images.
Spielberg and Tom Hanks are determined to honor all of history and those who live with their World War II films, which Spielberg will help to narrow the so-called "generation gap" between his father's generation and those that followed.
There are other ambitions for another project. Asked if they expected "and the Pacific" to resonate with viewers when it comes to conflicts facing America today, Hanks responded quickly.
"We want to resonate fully," he said. "The war in the Pacific are the war on terror, racism and suicide attacks. Both sides look to the other side such as dogs that are not worthy of human beings, of a civilization which does not recognize the advancement of the human species.
"Sound familiar? Sound like something that could happen?" He asked, referring to the United States and the conflict in the Middle East.
He pointed out that Americans who once bitterly rejected the Japanese brutality and barbarism is now accepted as friends and on an equal footing.
"Now we are in the face of another part of the world where we view and we see it as a deviation of mankind," said Hanks. "There is a possibility that somewhere down the line, 60 years from now, can look to the people who are trying to kill us and kill us now as we do today Japanese."
They are Hollywood A listers recognize that cooperation at the earliest possible time, 1986 a slight comedy which starred Tom Hanks and Spielberg's producer, gave no hint as to their roles in the future as historians of war be respected.
"When we first worked together in the 'money pit,' If someone has come to saying, to me: 'You two guys will get a job telling stories historical ... more specifically, the history of World War II,' you have said, 'You're nuts,' "Hank said, grinning.

Court Agrees to God on U.S. money, Pledge of Allegiance

Court agrees to God on U.S. money, pledge of allegiance:
SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) - A federal appeals court in California ruled that the references to God on the United States and the World Bank notes in the pledge of allegiance to the Flag of the United States to be unconstitutional and religious in nature. From two to one margin, and the three judges overturned their 2002 ruling that sided with atheist Michael Newdow that the complaint states God created the debt and violated the constitutional separation between church and state. "We believe it not - the pledge is unconstitutional," the ruling majority, referring to the pledge of allegiance made by children in public schools every morning on the American flag, which includes the line: "one nation under God ..". Pledge was amended in 1954 under President Dwight D. Eisenhower to include a controversial reference to God. The Commission's decision applies to this statement: "In God We Trust," printed on all United States bank note and coin in circulation. "The pledge to unite our nation and serve the wide range of reading through some of the proud of the ideals upon which our republic was founded and which we continue to pursue," said two of the judges. The lone dissenting voice went to the majority of people were wrong to assert that the words "under God" found in 1954 to amend the pledge was just a reference to the limited powers of the Federal Government. "This is, of course, an argument dreamed of my colleagues in any place can be found in the Congressional Record," and said the dissenting judge. "My colleagues apparently forgot that he is the Constitution which defines the restrictions on the authority of the government - not, as far as we have laws in question, and God," the judge added.

Chile Earthquake Aftershock was so great

Chile Earthquake Aftershock was so great:

Preferably 7.2-magnitude aftershock that rattled Chile today is nothing unusual weather after such a great original earthquake, scientists say.

The aftershock, which hit at about 11:40 local time, may sound very surprising, because it is larger than the original earthquake that decimated Haiti in January, but it was not unexpected for scientists, said Don Blakeman, a geophysicist with the United States Geological Survey.

The 8.8-magnitude earthquake off the coast of the Maule Region of Chile on February 27 was one of the strongest ever measured. After such a strong quake, aftershocks which themselves are substantially par for the course.

Aftershocks are usually smaller in size than the original quake, with many small aftershocks and a handful more. With an original earthquake that was more than a size 8 in "we would expect at least a couple of 7's," Blakeman told Live Science.

Aftershocks are earthquakes occur because the fault that ruptured in the initial temblor was not updating itself. They are usually within the same zone along a fault that ruptured in the original quake. And "the bigger the earthquake, the greater the aftershock zone," said Blakeman, which explains why the aftershock was not in the same place as the epicenter of the original earthquake. The fault zone for the initial quake was 250 miles (400 kilometer) long, "so it is a very large area," said Blakeman. The aftershock struck about 93 miles (150 km) southwest of the capital Santiago.

Aftershocks can last for weeks or months. They may not always occur, with periods of rest between sequences of aftershocks.

"The kind of runs in spells," said Blakeman.

Not long after the 7.2-magnitude aftershock today, a strong 6.9 aftershock shook the area again.

So far the initial Chile earthquake produced only one aftershock with a 7 in size and about 10 in between 6 and 7, Blakeman said. But "I know we had at least 150 in 5 or more range," he added.

And such great magnitude aftershock that ensures "you'll have much more after that," Blakeman said. "It's like this will have its own aftershock aftershock."

And even though it is farther away in the time of the initial earthquake, the magnitude of the aftershocks will not necessarily dispel. "We can certainly have more in the 7 range," said Blakeman.
