We invest in youth, City pay silly money: Ferguson
Air Jordan Retro Shoes On SaleManchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson said on Monday he wasn't concerned by rivals and newly-crowned Premier League champions Manchester City's ability to out bid them in the transfer market.Air Jordan Womens sale online
United lost out on successfully defending their title solely on goal difference to City on Sunday when two injury-time goals saw City to a 3-2 win over QPR and their first league crown in 44 years.new air jordan fusion shoes
However, Ferguson said that he was not going to be forced into a change of transfer policy because of losing out to their city rivals and would stick to investing in young talent while Abu Dhabi-owned City spent huge amounts on established players.
"We know City are going to spend fortunes, pay stupid money and silly salaries. We know that happens. We can't do anything about that," the 70-year-old told MUTV at the United player of the year dinner.Jordan 4 Fusion Woman Sale
"We are not like other clubs who can spend fortunes on proven goods. We invest in players who will be with the club for a long time, who will create the character of the club and the excitement for our fans.
"We are good at that and we are going to continue that way."
Ferguson, who is believed to be targeting two stars from Borussia Dortmund's successful Bundesliga title defence Japanese international Shinji Kagawa and Polish star Robert Lewandowski, said there was no need for a large scale overhaul of his squad.
This despite finishing without a trophy, being knocked out of the Champions League at the group stage and letting an eight point lead over City in early April slip.
"We have set out our stall for certain players and we want to make sure the evolution continues at United," said Ferguson.
"I have been at the club for 25 years and I have to maintain a certain standard that keeps us there all the time.
"We don't always win it because we are always there, which is great credit to how we view things."But there is nothing materially wrong with us. I know there are some critics but we got 89 points."http://www.shoesjordansforcheap.com/
Football edges closer to technology goal
After years of debate which has moved at a glacial pace, world football chiefs are close to sanctioning goal-line technology after a string of high-profile refereeing controversies. Kids Jordan Shoes
FIFA's rules body -- the International Football Association Board (IFAB) -- is expected to give the thumbs up to goal-line technology at a meeting in Kiev in July following the European Championships. Womens Nike Air Shoes
IFAB is currently assessing two different systems bidding to be approved as authorised suppliers of goal-line technology, one from British company Hawk-Eye and the other from German-Danish firm GoalRef.
Both companys' systems are undergoing rigorous testing ahead of the IFAB meeting, and Hawk-Eye will be used in a live match situation on Wednesday when Eastleigh and AFC Totton face each other in the Hampshire Senior Cup final.
Former English referee Neale Barry, a member of the IFAB sub-committee assessing the relative merits of the systems, believes the use of goal-line technology is inevitable.
Barry attended testing at Southampton's St Mary's stadium, which will host Wednesday's match, and is keen for referees to be given the support of technology.
"The international board first started looking at the technology in 2005," Barry told reporters. "The technology has moved on greatly since then when you look at Hawk-Eye and the quality of their cameras. New Jordans 2012 For Sale
"I think really there has been the attitude that we should really try to help the referees for this very, very factual decision.
"The ball is either over the line or it isn't. It is not a matter of opinion - it is a matter of fact.
"I think what we're trying to say is 'let's find a technology that works, that actually gives the referee that vital information', because in reality the most important decision in a game is whether a goal has been scored or not.
"We're trying to give the referee as much as help as we can, assuming the technology works and we can get it licensed, but we're very, very positive."
Hawk-Eye, which reportedly will cost around 250,000 pounds (403,000 dollars) per stadium, deploys six cameras at each end of the stadium to calculate a three-dimensional position of the ball.
GoalRef, the other technology under consideration, uses a chip placed in the centre of a football which will be picked up by sensors installed in the goalmouth.
With each system, the referee will be alerted by a signal transmitted to a wristwatch within one second of any goalmouth incident whether the ball has crossed the line.
Both systems could be available later this year if they meet with IFAB approval in July.
Steve Carter, the managing director of Hawk-Eye, is adamant that his company's technology will make refereeing controversies such as Geoff Hurst's 1966 World Cup final goal a thing of the past.
"The testing process has been exceptionally rigorous and whichever system is approved, every football fan can sleep easy at night knowing they are accurate," said Carter.
"At the moment all of our concentration and energy is on doing as well as we can, making the technology as good as possible and making sure that we get excellent results from phase two."
Meanwhile Barry is sceptical of the argument that any introduction of goal-line technology will be the thin end of the wedge, leading to video replays being used to rule on issues of offside or foul play.
"I've been on IFAB for seven years and it is a very, very conservative organisation," Barry said."I'd be astonished if we go to other forms of technology. In my personal opinion, I don't think we will ever get to that point."http://www.shoesjordans23.com/

'Housewives' says farewell with grace and humor
For those who haven't yet made their farewell visit to Wisteria Lane, be advised: Plot spoilers from Sunday's finale await.
Suffice it to say, everyone seems destined to live happily ever after. At least, with the exception of Karen McCluskey (Kathryn Joosten), the cranky but lovable senior who was battling cancer. But she dies peacefully at home, the way she wanted, with a favorite Johnny Mathis record serenading her.
By this point, she has saved the day for Bree Van de Kamp (Marcia Cross), who was on trial for murder — an accidental homicide that was actually committed by Carlos (Ricardo Antonio Chavira), the husband of Bree's fellow housewife, Gabrielle (Eva Longoria). jordan shoes for sale
Bree was prepared to loyally take the fall for her friends, but, at the last moment, Karen steps in and confesses to the crime.
Besides her false confession, Karen voices on the stand a tender summary of life in the "Desperate Housewives" neighborhood: "It's not just a bunch of houses in the same place. It's a community — people who care about each other." new jordan shoes
The charges are dropped against Bree, who overcomes her fear of commitment and settles down with her cute lawyer, Trip (Scott Bakula), after he assures her that her tarnished past doesn't bother him: "All those ugly details you're talking about, they just prove that you're human," he says lovingly.
Lynette (Felicity Huffman) and Tom (Doug Savant), whose marriage seemed on the rocks, reconcile passionately in the middle of Wisteria Lane in the romantic glow of streetlights. Shoes Jordan Fusions Sale
Preparations are afoot for the gala marriage of Renee (Vanessa Williams) and Ben (Charles Mesure), with all the expected hysteria and confusion. For instance, en route to the ceremony in a stretch limo, Renee's expensive wedding gown is soaked by pregnant Julie seated beside her, whose water inconveniently breaks. But with Gabrielle as an accomplice, Renee steals a replacement gown from a bridal store. Nike Air Jordan 6
Then Julie (Andrea Lauren Bowen), the daughter of Susan (Teri Hatcher), gives birth at the hospital as, in cross-cuts, the wedding reception takes place and Karen breathes her last. Life, nuptials and death: a bittersweet confluence.
The ratings and heat that greeted "Desperate Housewives" eight years ago have faded during the series' run. The season finale for its first year drew more than 30 million viewers, while, this season, the series has averaged 8.5 million each week.
But Sunday's two-hour finale (whose second hour was written by series creator Marc Cherry) was a reminder of why "Desperate Housewives" struck such a chord with its arrival in fall 2004.
It burst on the scene as a lighthearted souffle of blackmail, lust, adultery and sisterhood; as TV's go-to address for sexy suburban angst. It hooked America from its first-place premiere airing when, among many twists, its series-long narrator (neighbor Mary Alice Young, portrayed by Brenda Strong) gave a play-by-play of her own suicide.
Then, as now, at the heart of this throbbing universe are the four titular housewives: overwrought career woman and weary mom Lynette; sexy, spoiled spitfire Gabrielle; goodhearted bubble-head Susan; and wired-too-tight homemaker Bree.
All of them have gone through so much, yet managed to stay rooted, as hordes of other characters came and went through the years. (Accelerating things, the time frame skipped forward by five years midway through the series' eight-season run.)
But that's all over. All four women (we are told) will soon scatter, living out their lives elsewhere, but happily.
The first to exit: Susan, the only member of the foursome who leaves without a partner by her side.
"Do I have one last torrid romance in me? Maybe," she tells daughter Julie wistfully. "But I know if I am ever old and lonely, I can wrap myself up in all those memories (of life on Wisteria Lane), and I will be content."
She has sold her home to a young married couple. But the wife, named Jennifer, confides misgivings at moving to the suburbs.
"I'm a little worried it's going to be boring," she tells Susan.
"Oh, I wouldn't worry about that," replies Susan with a knowing smile.
And, indeed, new housewife Jennifer seems to be bringing her own secrets and woes to the block — at least, if the series' final shot of her stricken expression and a mysterious box are any indication.What a relief as the show comes to a close! Just because viewers won't be privy to future happenings on Wisteria Lane doesn't mean there's any danger of things settling down.http://www.jordansretroforcheap.com/
Bobby Brown says his new album represents healing
Kids Jordan ShoesNEW YORK (AP) — Bobby Brown says it took him a long time to come out with a new album because he's spent so much time trying to get his life on track.
Now on tour with bandmates New Edition, Brown says he's ready to return to his solo career with the album "Masterpiece," due out June 5.
"It's what I've been through throughout my life, and just trying to heal myself through my music," the 43-year-old singer said in a recent interview.
"Masterpiece" is Brown's first album in 14 years. He was a multiplatinum star with New Edition and later developed his solo career. But his well-documented battle with drugs and his legal woes led to his musical decline. His turbulent marriage to Whitney Houston further eroded his image.
In a recent interview with the "Today" show's Matt Lauer, Brown denied that he got his late ex-wife addicted to drugs. Houston's career was derailed by her drug use, which came to the public's attention during her marriage to Brown. The superstar drowned in February in Beverly Hills, Calif.; her death was complicated by heart disease and cocaine use, according to authorities.cheap jordan for sale
"The Matt Lauer interview was just for me to clear the air about what everyone was feeling about my ex-wife's death," Brown said.
Although he was arrested for DUI in March, Brown insists he has been drug-free for more than seven years. He said his attempt to get his life in order is part of the reason why the album took so long to make.Jordan Fusion for sale
"When you're working on yourself, you have to really concentrate on working on yourself and it takes a back seat to what you want to do and what I'm gonna do," he said.
Brown says "Masterpiece," which he started working on last year, is "the best album I've done so far.
"But I'm going to do better in the near future," he said. "I just want to get back to what I do, which is entertainment, and this is the start to me getting back to what I want to do."
Brown is engaged to his manager, Alicia Etheridge, with whom he has a young son. He also has other older children, including 19-year-old Bobbi Kristina, his only child with Houston.jordan shoes online
Brown said he and Etheridge plan a private wedding, and described his life as content.
"I'm happy right now in my life, I'm comfortable with who I am," he said. "It's just better."

Stocks, euro drop as deadlock continues in Greece
The euro sank to a three-month low against the dollar and borrowing costs for Spain and Italy jumped as bond traders anticipated that financial stress could spread far beyond Greece. Investors dumped risky assets and plowed into the safety of the Treasury market, pushing yields to their lowest levels this year.
The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 125.25 points to close at 12,695.35. The Dow has lost more than half of its gains for the year in the past two weeks as worries resurface about Europe and the strength of the U.S. economy. Save on Nike Women's Jordan Shoes
In Athens, talks between political parties to form a government dragged into a second week. The uncertainty has raised concerns that Greece could miss a debt payment and drop the euro currency. The worry is that if Greece leaves the currency union, bond traders may demand steeper borrowing rates from other troubled countries and push them deeper into debt. Shopping Results for Nike Air Jordan 1
The turmoil could easily spread to the U.S. through the banking system. "The large banks are globally connected," said Guy LeBas, chief fixed income strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott. "The concrete fear is that if Greece exits the euro, that would hurt European banks. They'll pull back lending to U.S. banks and then they'd be in worse shape." Fusion Shoes Jordan Sale
In other trading, the Standard & Poor's 500 index dropped 15.04 points to 1,338.35. The Nasdaq composite sank 31.24 points to 2,902.58.
The losses swept across the market. All 10 of the industry groups within the S&P 500 fell.
JPMorgan Chase's $2 billion trading loss continued to hang over bank stocks. JPMorgan dropped 3 percent following news that the executive overseeing its trading strategy would step down. Morgan Stanley and Citigroup, two banks with large trading operations, sank more than 4 percent.
The loss to JPMorgan appears "manageable," said Matt Freund, a portfolio manager at USAA Investments. "But people are looking at other banks and wondering who's going to be next? What else could be lurking?"
Major markets in Europe plunged. France's CAC-40 and Germany's DAX lost 2 percent. Benchmark indexes fell nearly 3 percent in Italy and Spain.
Traders shifted money into the safest of government bonds, pushing Treasury prices up and their yields down. The yield on the 10-year note hit a low for the year, 1.77 percent. Jordan 8 Fusion on SaleAir Jordan 12 Fusion Sale
Since hitting its high for the year on May 1, the Dow has been on a steady slide, closing lower on seven of the previous eight trading days. The Dow's 1.7 percent loss last week was its worst since Dec. 16.
Despite the broad market decline, some stocks posted gains:
— Chesapeake Energy Corp. jumped 4 percent on reports that the investor Carl Icahn bought a stake in the natural gas company. Chesapeake's CEO said he'd welcome an investment by Icahn, who is known for shaking up companies.
— Yahoo gained 2 percent. The company replaced its CEO, Scott Thompson. Yahoo reportedly pushed Thompson out for padding his resume.— Electronics retailer Best Buy Co. rose 1 percent after the company's founder, Richard Schulze, said he would step down as chairman. An investigation found that he knew the CEO was having a relationship with a female employee and didn't tell an audit committee.http://www.buy-jordansretro.com/
Obama says same-sex couples should be able to marry
"It is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same-sex couples should be able to get married," Obama said in an interview with ABC's Robin Roberts.
Obama's comments marked the first time a U.S. president had publicly expressed support for gay marriage, and his position was hailed by Democrats, gay rights groups and others as a benchmark for civil rights in the United States.
"This is a major turning point in the history of American civil rights" said New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, an independent whose city is in one of six states that allow same-sex marriage.
Neera Tanden from the Center for American Progress described the president's expression of support as "another large step toward realizing this country's promise of equality."
Others, including Republican activists and conservative Christian leaders, criticized Obama's stance and called it a huge political risk on a divisive issue.
Some said it could lead independent voters who oppose gay marriage to support Mitt Romney, Obama's likely Republican opponent in the November 6 election. Noting that 29 states have approved bans on same-sex marriage, they said Obama's announcement also could help Romney consolidate support among evangelical Christians who, like Romney, oppose gay marriage.
"Today's announcement ensures that marriage will again be a major issue in the presidential election," said Tony Perkins, a prominent evangelical leader and president of the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian group. "The president has provided a clear contrast between him and ... Mitt Romney."
Added Ralph Reed of the Faith and Freedom Coalition: "This is an unanticipated gift to the Romney campaign. It is certain to fuel a record turnout of voters of faith to the polls this November."
Romney, campaigning in Oklahoma City, said he believes "marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman." He has said he supports hospital visitation rights and other domestic partnership benefits for gay and lesbian couples.
Analysts saw Obama's move as a calculated risk at a time when polls indicated that an increasing number of Americans support legally recognizing gay marriages.
A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll said that more than 39 percent of Americans believe same-sex couples should be allowed to marry legally. Another 23.5 percent said that such couples should be allowed to form civil unions but not marry, while nearly 27 percent opposed marriage or civil unions for gay and lesbian couples.
"It is not without political risk," Democratic strategist Julian Epstein said on MSNBC. "Polls show that nearly every segment of the population" is moving toward acceptance of gay marriage, but "Republicans certainly will try to use it as a wedge in the African American community and with non-college educated white voters," key voting blocs in which many people oppose gay marriage.
FIRST LADY, DAUGHTERS INFLUENCED DECISION
Obama's comments came three days after Vice President Joe Biden said in a television interview that he was comfortable with gay marriage.
Senior administration officials indicated that Obama - who had walked a fine, politically sensitive line in supporting gay rights but not gay marriage - decided earlier this year to support same-sex marriage. Jordan Shoes For Sale
They said he initially planned to announce his change in position for such marriages before the Democratic National Convention in September.
The officials acknowledged that Biden's comments had moved up that timetable and said the president was not upset at Biden over his remarks.
During the ABC interview, Obama described his views as personal and said he still believed that individual U.S. states should be able to decide on the issue for themselves.
Obama, who ended the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy that prevented gays from serving openly in the U.S. military, said his thinking was affected by watching members of his staff who are in committed same-sex relationships and thinking about "soldiers or airmen or marines or sailors who are out there fighting on my behalf and yet feel constrained."
Obama told ABC that his daughters were an influential factor and that his wife, first lady Michelle Obama, shared his views.
"You know, Malia and Sasha, they have friends whose parents are same-sex couples," Obama said. "There have been times where Michelle and I have been sitting around the dinner table and we're talking about their friends and their parents, and Malia and Sasha, it wouldn't dawn on them that somehow their friends' parents would be treated differently."
Obama added, "It doesn't make sense to them and frankly, that's the kind of thing that prompts a change in perspective."
CONTRASTING VIEWS IN EUROPE
Obama's switch is unlikely to have much impact on the legal issues associated with gay marriage, said James Esseks, director of the ACLU LGBT Project, which supports gay rights. Jordan Shoes
The Obama administration already had declined to defend the Defense of Marriage Act, the 1996 law barring federal recognition of same-sex marriage.
Most gay-rights battles today are taking place in the courts and in the states, where the White House is not an active participant, Esseks said.
The trends surround gay marriage in the United States - a rising number of Americans supporting it even as a rising number of states ban it - contrasts with how such unions are viewed in other western nations.
Same-sex marriages are legal in several European countries, including Spain and the Netherlands.
British Prime Minister David Cameron is facing a backlash from some in the Anglican Church over his efforts to legalize same-sex marriage. A recent online survey by Catholic Voices, a group that opposes same-sex marriage, said that 70 percent of Britons believed that marriage should continue to be defined as a lifelong union between a man and a woman.
PRAISE FROM ACTIVISTS
In the United States, nearly two-thirds of Democrats support same-sex marriage, along with more than half of independents, while fewer than one-quarter of Republicans believe it should be allowed.
Obama's remarks were celebrated by Human Rights Campaign, a gay rights group, which said he had "made history."
Republican gay rights activists praised the decision but were more muted.
"I am sure the president's newly discovered support for marriage is cold comfort to the gay couples in North Carolina," said Christopher Barron, chief strategist of GOProud.
North Carolina voted on Tuesday to join 28 other states that have voter-approved constitutional bans on same-sex marriages, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Six states and the District of Columbia allow gay and lesbian marriages. In Colorado on Wednesday, a bill that would have granted civil unions to same-sex couples failed to advance to a full vote.(Additional reporting by Deborah Charles, Laura MacInnis, Matt Spetalnick and Steve Holland; Editing by David Lindsey and Cynthia Osterman)http://www.shoesjordansforcheap.com/
Study finds NYPD frisks young black men too often
The New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU), a prominent rights group, charged on Wednesday that the program disproportionately targets minorities, particularly young black and Latino men.
Last year the department performed 168,126 on-the-spot searches of black men aged 14 to 24 out of a total population of 158,406, according to an NYCLU analysis of departmental statistics.
The total number of police stops rose from 160,851 in 2003, one year after Mayor Michael Bloomberg took office, to 685,724 in 2011, with only a slight increase in recovered illegal firearms. About 53 percent of those stops resulted in physical searches, according to the NYCLU.
In 2003 the program recovered 604 illegal guns, and in 2011 it seized 780 such weapons.
NYCLU president Donna Lieberman called the stop and frisk program a valuable crime-fighting tool that has been severely abused by the NYPD.
"The spin of the NYPD has been quite successful ... in inoculating the NYPD against criticism, but crime has declined in urban areas all over the country without this out-of-control level of abuse of stop and frisk," she said.
Without disputing the NYCLU's figures, police challenged the report's conclusions and responded with their own statistics showing gun violence in the city disproportionately affects the same population of young black men who are being stopped.
The city's murder rate has dropped significantly for two decades, and falling crime rates in the city have "saved black lives," the written response said.
"Last year, 96 percent of all shooting victims in New York were black or Hispanic, as were over 90 percent of murder victims," police said.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly has argued that the department's aggressive efforts to get illegal guns off the street has driven down crime, protected cops, and made criminals think twice about leaving home with illegal guns. New Jordans 2012 For Sale
New York City Public Advocate Bill de Blasio - a potential Democratic mayoral candidate in next year's election - called on Bloomberg Wednesday to direct the NYPD to use the department's widely copied CompStat program to reduce the number of stops and frisks the department performs each year.
CompStat - short for computer statistics - is a police performance management tool put in place in 1995 that tracks and analyzes crime data and holds police district and precinct commanders to account for their crime-fighting performance. Cheap Air Jordans
Combating illegal guns in New York has been one of Bloomberg's signature issues during his three terms in office. He has sent undercover investigators to gun shows in states with weaker gun laws than New York to show how easy it is to circumvent regulations against criminals buying weapons. Last month, Bloomberg said 85 percent of all guns recovered from crimes in New York City came from out of state. Jordan Shoes
Critics charge police are rapidly losing the support of minority communities, a vital tool in community-based policing.
Only 1.8 percent of blacks and Latinos searched by the police last year had weapons on them, compared with 3.8 percent of whites, the NYCLU report said.
"Ninety-eight percent of the time, (police) are wrong," said Christopher Dunn, associate legal director of the NYCLU.
The Bloomberg administration did not respond directly to the NYCLU report, but Deputy Mayor Howard Wolfson said in a statement "the Stop, Question and Frisk (program) keeps guns and other weapons off the streets and saves lives.
"Make no mistake, we will not continue to be the safest big city in America if Mr. de Blasio has his way," Wolfson said.(Reporting by Chris Francescani; Editing by Daniel Trotta and Eric Walsh) http://www.shoesjordans23.com/

Romney: Obama’s policies are ‘old’ and ‘outdated’
Speaking to supporters against the backdrop of an idle oil pump in an exploration field outside Denver, Romney argued that Obama's policies have resulted in higher energy prices and have hurt the country's job growth. He said Obama's focus on "green energy" hasn't delivered on the job growth the administration promised.
"He said he was going to spend $150 billion on green energy and create 5 million jobs," Romney said. "I have a hard time seeing all those jobs."
And while he acknowledged that energy production has increased since Obama took office, Romney said that has more to do with the Bush administration lifting restrictions.Cheap Jordan Shoes
"The president likes to take credit for the fact that as president, oil production was up," Romney said. "Well, I'd like to take credit for when I was governor the Red Sox won the World Series. But that's not the case."Nike Air Jordan Shoes
Romney suggested that investing in "all forms" of energy production, including coal, oil and natural gas would not only create jobs within that sector but also fuel a renaissance within the hard-hit manufacturing sector. He said Obama has focused too heavily on alternative energy—like wind and solar—instead of encouraging all kinds of energy, including oil and gas.
"His ideas about energy are simply out of date," Romney said.http://www.jordansretroforcheap.com/
But the larger theme of Romney's Colorado appearance was to double down on the campaign's efforts to make an old vs. new argument when it comes to Obama. The presumptive Republican nominee repeatedly described Obama's policies as "old" and "from the past." Echoing remarks he made in Michigan Tuesday, Romney argued that Obama was being influenced by "old liberals" and "liberals from years ago" who are out of touch with the country's needs today.
"This is a choice for the American people: They can decide to stick with the president. … Many feel he's a nice guy," Romney said. "I have no problem with the man personally." But, he argued, Obama's approach to the country is "rooted in perspective of the past."
"I know we are feeling kind of down right now, but that's because we are applying policies from the past that just don't work," Romney said. "I will go to work getting America growing and thriving again."Retro Jordan Shoes

After a hectic Monday in New York, when Zuckerberg kept his audience waiting because he got caught in the bathroom, the Facebook crew decided to switch things up a bit, hoping to smooth out the process. Instead of showing this "creepy, mesmerizing" video, which investors complained they'd already seen, Facebook Chief Financial Officer David Ebersman and Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg took the helm, answering questions about the social network's future business plan, according to a report by The Wall Street Journal's Jon Kamp, Kirsten Grind and Jennifer Levitz. While that move aimed to appease investors who wanted more Q&A time, Zuckerberg did not show at all, further angering some potential investors. He left about 200 people waiting and gave no reason for his absence. "I think if you're going to take public money, you should be at public meetings," Lawrence Haverty, Jr., an associate portfolio manager of Gabelli Global Multimedia Trust, told Kamp, Grind and Levtiz.

He shows up late for meetings or not at all. And when he does make it, his laid-back outfits haven't helped, coming off as shlubby. "Mark and his signature hoodie: He’s actually showing investors he doesn’t care that much; he’s going to be him," Michael Pachter, an analyst for Wedbush Securities said in an interview on Bloomberg TV. "I think that’s a mark of immaturity. I think that he has to realize he’s bringing investors in as a new constituency right now, and I think he’s got to show them the respect that they deserve because he’s asking them for their money," he continued.

As Wall Street derides Zuckerberg, Silicon Valley has come to his defense. "This analyst is smoking stuff that is outside the realm of legality," writes GigaOm's Om Malik in a satirical take down of Zuckerberg's hoodie on his personal site. "Now if you were looking for a problem with Zuckerberg’s hoodie, then you should see it for what it really is: a fashion abomination," he continues. That follows tweets like this from Directions on Microsoft's Wes Miller. "If the best criticism you can offer on Facebook's IPO is, 'CEOs shouldn't wear hoodies', you should be at the Oscars, not an IPO roadshow," he tweeted.

"These were business people who know how to run a business," he continued. He may have upset some. "I would have liked to see him out there at least answering some broader questions," Dana Cease, a senior investment analyst at John Hancock Asset Management, explained to The Journal. "It would be good to have some comfort." But, others appreciated Zuckerberg let the suits do the talking. "After hearing directly from Facebook executives, Mr. Mullaney felt the company appears to have a 'definite plan' and that he felt 'more comfortable with its story than I was prior to this,'" write Kamp, Grind, and Levitz.

Williams scores 57 as Nets dump Bobcats 104-101
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Deron Williams' eyes grew a little wider when he realized the Charlotte Bobcats had opted not to double-team him off pick and rolls.
It's something he hadn't seen all season.nice shoes cheap
"I'm used to getting double-teamed on those," Williams said. "It's kind of refreshing not to be."
Williams took full advantage, scoring a franchise-record 57 points to lift the New Jersey Nets to a 104-101 victory over the Bobcats on Sunday night. That's the most points scored in the NBA this season and breaks the team record of 52 points shared by Mike Newlin and Ray Williams.
It was the second-most points scored against the Bobcats, one shy of Kobe Bryant's 58 in 2006.http://www.standardjordan.com/
Williams, who came into the game averaging 21.7 points per game, shot 16 of 29 from the field and was a perfect 21 for 21 from the free-throw line. He did miss one at one free throw, but the Bobcats were called for a lane violation and it didn't count.
Williams was surprised when a teammate told him he had 39 points at the end of the third quarter, three shy of his personal career-best set April 6, 2010, against Oklahoma City.red jordan 7
"You really don't pay attention to it," Williams said. "It's just one of those games where you start feeling good and let it go."
Coach Avery Johnson called Williams' effort unbelievable.cool shoes cheap
"He really was focused," Johnson said. "He was well-rested. He made a lot of shots yesterday in our mini-practice and it carried over into tonight's game. We were going back and forth on whether to have a shootaround this morning and we opted for rest. And he was pretty fresh."jordan 8
Added teammate Sheldon Williams: "When someone is hitting like that you want to keep going to the well until it runs dry. It never did tonight."
However, not all went right for the Nets on this night as starting center Brook Lopez rolled his right ankle and left the locker room on crutches.
Lopez, who made his season debut on Feb. 19 after missing the Nets' first 32 games while recovering from a broken right foot, had an X-ray but will be reevaluated on Monday, according to Johnson.buy air jordans
"It's a tough situation for him, especially coming back from the foot situation," Johnson said. "We're going to get him checked out tomorrow. We'll know more when we find out."
Afterward, Bobcats coach Paul Silas wasn't apologizing for his team's approach to defending Williams with one man.
"You can do one of two things: you can try to stop him and double him and leave other players wide open or guard everybody," Silas said. "I thought that's mainly what kept us in the game. Nobody else was doing anything (for them). It gave us a chance."all jordan shoes
Corey Maggette had 24 points and Gerald Henderson added 15 for the Bobcats, who've now lost five straight and 21 of their last 22.
The Nets trailed by eight at halftime but took the lead thanks to Williams, who scored 22 points in the third quarter when he simply dominated Charlotte's smaller guards D.J. Augustin and Kemba Walker.air jordan 6
Williams did just about everything right, adding six rebounds and seven assists. He also converted a four-point play after getting fouled while knocking down a 3-pointer from the wing.jordan women
With the Nets leading 96-94 with 1:04 remaining, Kris Humphries missed two free throws but Sheldon Williams got a key momentum-turning rebound and called timeout. Deron Williams hit a big jumper to give the Nets a four-point lead and Sheldon Williams followed by converting a three-point play off a pretty pass from Jordan Farmar.
The Bobcats would cut the lead to two with 3.5 seconds left, but MarShon Brooks knocked down one of two free throws with 1.7 seconds left. The Bobcats had a final chance to tie the game but Augustin's off-balanced heave from 20 feet didn't hit the rim.
"We didn't give up," Silas said. "That was a great thing. In the last 1.7 seconds, we didn't execute that play particularly well. But we did have a chance. That shows me that we are getting there. It's certainly not there yet. But we are striving to get there. At least we're not just giving up and letting teams just run over us. If we continue to do this, we'll be OK."jordan shoes blue
The Nets got 11 points and 13 rebounds from Humphries to win their 12th game this season.
The Bobcats led by as many as 16 in the first half, the first time they've held a double-digit lead since Feb. 4 at Phoenix.
Walker had 14 points and Augustin and Byron Mullens each added 12 for the Bobcats.
NOTES: The Bobcats, who have the NBA's worst record, scored 100 points for the first time in 22 games. They hadn't reached that feat since scoring 112 in a win against Golden State on Jan. 14 which was the beginning of their season downfall.2012 jordan shoes
http://www.maxsalehome.comMEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Intensifying debate over conservative social values — and Republican icon Rush Limbaugh — overshadowed the nation's economic concerns Sunday as the Republican presidential campaign hurtled toward Super Tuesday contests that could re-shape the nomination battle and shift the direction of the Grand Old Party.
Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum distanced themselves from Limbaugh, who boasts a huge conservative following and recently apologized for calling a Georgetown University law student a "slut" and a "prostitute" on his nationally syndicated radio program. The woman testified at a congressional hearing in favor of an Obama administration mandate that employee health plans include free contraceptive coverage. While religious institutions are exempt, their affiliates, such as hospitals and universities, were at first included in the requirement. Under harsh criticism from conservatives, President Barack Obama later said the affiliates could opt out, but insurers must pay for the coverage. The GOP framed the issue as one of religious liberty. But Obama's chief political strategist suggested the Limbaugh's reaction — and Republicans slow repudiation of his comments — would benefit Democrats in the general election this fall. "I think what Rush Limbaugh said about that young woman was not only vile and degrading to her, but to women across the country," David Axelrod said on ABC's "This Week" Sunday morning. While the contraception debate raged on national television, Newt Gingrich predicted a strong performance Tuesday would resurrect his fading candidacy. Romney and Santorum spent Sunday racing across Georgia, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Ohio, four of the ten states to host elections on Super Tuesday, the biggest single voting day of the 2012 cycle. Romney picked up endorsements from two influential Republican lawmakers: House Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia and Oklahoma Sen. Tom Coburn, widely regarded as one of the most conservative members of the U.S. Senate. Campaigning in Alaska, Ron Paul conceded he's a long shot. "Do I believe I can win? Yes. Do I believe the chances are slim? Yes, I do," he said on CBS' "Face the Nation." Super Tuesday's defining contest may be Ohio, where Santorum and Romney have devoted tremendous time and resources in recent weeks. Santorum's performance there could well define his fate — and Romney's — in the rollercoaster race going forward. "This is a game of survival," Santorum said while campaigning Sunday in Memphis, Tenn.
Preparing for the worst, Romney's campaign began preparing for a possible loss in Ohio, where polls show the former Massachusetts governor locked in a dead heat with Santorum, a former senator from neighboring Pennsylvania.2011 air maxes
"I don't think any state is a must-win," Romney adviser Eric Fehrnstrom said. "I think the only must-do on a candidate's check list is getting 1,144 delegates." Romney has won four consecutive contests, including Saturday's Washington caucuses. His broad, well-disciplined organization virtually assures he'll collect more delegates than his opponents on Tuesday, in contrast with Santorum's looser group of supporters. Santorum and Gingrich did not collect enough signatures to qualify for the Virginia ballot, for example, and Santorum cannot win 18 of Ohio's 66 delegates for similar reasons.
But a win by the overmatched Santorum in Ohio would send a broad signal that Romney, long presumed the front-runner, is far weaker than anyone imagined. Gingrich said as much Sunday.air griffey max
"Gov. Romney, who's outspent all the rest of us by multiples, is a front-runner without any question, but I think he's not a very convincing front-runner, and he's a long way from having closed out this race," he said. On the other hand, a Santorum loss in Ohio, coupled with a convincing Gingrich victory in Georgia, could breathe new life into the former House speaker's candidacy and impede Santorum's greatest wish: a one-on-one contest against Romney.
"For us to ultimately win this race is going to have to narrow down to two, and I think that will happen eventually," Santorum said in Memphis.cheap air maxes
But Gingrich is showing no signs of going away. The former Georgia congressman has declared the state he represented for 20 years a must-win. He holds a strong lead in recent polls there. On Sunday he predicted the race would go on "for a good while."
No candidate will sweep all 10 contests — which feature in some cases complicated delegate rules and span politically diverse regions from Alaska to Vermont to Oklahoma.air maxes
But a Santorum victory in Ohio or broader success elsewhere will likely ensure his place as Romney's top rival. And that would help ensure that the contraception debate and other social issues play prominently in the Republican presidential contest going forward. Santorum has made headlines in recent days by emphasizing the need for two-parent families and fewer pregnancies out of wedlock. Saturday night, Santorum told an Ohio audience that the nation's inattention to conservative social values is "damning people."
In Oklahoma City on Sunday, Santorum was greeted by protesters who shouted slogans like "Get your hate out of my state." As Santorum supporters chanted "We pick Rick," the candidate himself was barely audible.air force max
Earlier, he dodged the Limbaugh controversy. "That's not my business," he said when asked Sunday about Limbaugh's apology. Romney has avoided the issue in recent days as well, saying only that Limbaugh's comments about the college student were "not the language I would have used, but I'm focusing on the issues that I think are significant in the country today, and that's why I'm here talking about jobs in Ohio." Asked whether Romney's comments went far enough, Fehrnstrom said: "There's extreme rhetoric on both sides of the political spectrum. I think the political process is best served if everybody tones it down, not only those on the right but also intolerant voices on the left." Gingrich told CNN's "State of the Union" that he's glad the conservative commentator issued the apology on Saturday and that it's time to move beyond the controversy. He said it's "silly" to suggest that Limbaugh speaks for the GOP.
Republican observers suggest that any continued focus on social issues could hurt the party.new air maxes
GOP strategist Phil Musser said the contraception debate "has been distracting and has sucked up too much political oxygen." "While this is an important issue that illustrates the overreach of Obamacare, it's nowhere near the top of what most Americans are most focused on right now," he said, describing it as a "short-term challenge."
Santorum's focus on social issues has helped fuel his success in lower-turnout elections, where tea party activists and evangelical voters generally play a more active role. Lingering skepticism about Romney's conservative credentials from those voters has allowed Santorum and Gingrich to stay in the race, despite Romney's advantages.air maxes 2010
The Super Tuesday contests and beyond are about math almost as much as political symbolism. No candidate can technically claim his party's nomination before collecting 1,144 delegates, although history suggests a nominee usually emerges much earlier once weaker candidates lose the ability to raise money.
Romney holds a commanding delegate lead, including Saturday's Washington results, according to Associated Press projections.air maxes 24 7
He won 30 delegates in Washington while Paul and Santorum each won five, bringing Romney's total to 203, compared to 92 for Santorum, 33 for Gingrich and 25 for Paul.
There are 419 delegates at stake Super Tuesday. Also, Wyoming Republicans will hold county conventions from March 6 through March 10, with 12 delegates to the party's national convention up for grabs.max air shoes
Bengals WR Simpson pleads to charge, faces jail
A judge will decide next month whether to accept the prosecutors' recommendation or give him a more lenient sentence.
The four-year veteran is a free agent after completing his contract with the Bengals. His guilty plea could bring a suspension from the league, which would make him less attractive on the free agent market.NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said in an email on Thursday that the case will be reviewed under the league's substance abuse policy.buy shoes for cheap
Simpson wore a dark gray suit and stood with his hands in his pockets for a hearing Thursday in Kenton County Circuit Court aimed at concluding a case that has hung over him since September, when a package containing approximately 2 pounds of marijuana was delivered to his home in northern Kentucky.
The package had been tracked by agents from California. Authorities later searched Simpson's home and found approximately another pound of marijuana, county Commonwealth's Attorney Rob Sanders said after the hearing on Thursday.air jordans cheap
He was indicted on a felony charge of marijuana trafficking. The agreement changes the charge — still a Class D felony — to a prohibited act relating to controlled substances.
"I don't think Mr. Simpson deserves any special treatment one way or the other," Sanders said after the hearing. "He doesn't deserve any special breaks. He doesn't deserve any harsher punishment."cheap jordan shoes
Judge Gregory Bartlett can accept the proposed 60-day jail term or reduce it at a sentencing hearing on April 5. Bartlett told Simpson that he wants a full disclosure of what happened in the case at the sentencing hearing.air jordan 11
Simpson and lawyer Burr Travis left the courtroom immediately after the hearing without any comment. Later, Travis said in a phone interview that he would present witnesses at the sentencing hearing.nike shoes cheap
"We're going to give the court and the commonwealth a different side of Jerome Simpson," Travis said. "The decision is strictly up to the judge."
The plea agreement also calls for three years' probation, 200 hours of community service and drug treatment. It allows for Simpson to be on a work-release program — leave jail during the day to work — but the judge will decide if that's appropriate.
It's unclear how a work-release program might apply to Simpson, who will officially become an unrestricted free agent later this month. If he hasn't signed with a team, he wouldn't have any football-related responsibilities to fulfill.
Sanders said a 60-day jail sentence would be appropriate.jordan retro 9
"It's very consistent with what the judges in Kenton County impose," he said. "If anything, it might be a little stiffer than what most people get. A lot of folks that don't have a prior record and get convicted of the same crime get a straight probated sentence. So the addition of the 60 days, I think, is probably on the high end of average."
The agreement stipulates that there is no evidence Simpson was dealing marijuana. Sanders said Simpson had the marijuana for personal use and was probably sharing it with friends.
The judge asked Simpson a few questions about the deal, making sure he understood the ramifications. Asked if he had any questions about it, Simpson replied, "No sir, your honor."black retro 8 jordans
The second-round draft pick from Coastal Carolina caught 53 passes for 758 yards and four touchdowns last season as a complement to rookie Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Green. His grandest moment — a flip over a defender to score a touchdown — became a staple of NFL highlight films.
He did a heels-over-head flip over Arizona linebacker Daryl Washington at the goal line and landed on his feet in the end zone during a 23-16 win on Dec. 14. Simpson raised both arms in triumph, like a gymnast who had just stuck a landing.
Simpson is one of four Bengals either arrested or indicted since last July, along with linebacker Rey Maualuga, running back Cedric Benson and cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones.new cheap jordans
Maualuga has pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanor assault charge resulting from an altercation at a downtown Cincinnati bar on Feb. 5. It's his second court case in two years. Maualuga pleaded guilty to drunken driving after police in northern Kentucky said he hit a parking meter and two parked cars in January 2010.
The NFL fined Maualuga two game checks and made him forfeit a two-week share of his signing bonus for violating its conduct policy with the drunken driving case. As a repeat offender under the policy, Maualuga could face a suspension next season, depending upon the outcome of his latest case.jordan retro 5
Jones, who also is a free agent, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of disorderly conduct for a disturbance at a downtown bar last July. He was sentenced to a year of probation and community service. Jones has repeatedly been suspended during his seven years with the league, and faces more discipline if he signs with a team.Benson, who is a free agent and is unlikely to return to Cincinnati, was charged with misdemeanor assault last July for an altercation with a former roommate in Texas. He served five days in jail there before the start of the season, and was suspended for one game by the NFL.air jordan 9 kids

Forecast wants to takes us back to the future and update the check-in app
And as you’d expect, the attempts are fraught with problems. Privacy is only one of those issues; logistics and user experience have proven to have their own set of unique difficulties.Despite any and all of this, one more app is going to take on location. Foresight is launching the next iteration of its app with Foresight 2.0. There are a few big changes the app, the most significant arguably being its integration with Timeline. It’s own web access to the app shouldn’t go unnoticed though.women in jordan
If you haven’t heard of Forecast, you can start with the fact that creator René Pinnell sees it as “Timeline for the future.” The app’s model is fairly simple: you create a Forecast, something you plan on doing and where – i.e., happy hour at a local bar. nike jordan 5You send the Forecast out (it’s linked with Foursquare), and then a future check in of what you plan on doing is created. Users are able to push updates to their phone’s notifications so they have a running schedule or what their friends are doing and where and when.cheap jordans shoes
If you’re anything like us, then you’re asking “what’s the need?” Isn’t this just adding a functionality to already available check-in apps? According to Pinnell, the planning element of these options is anything but fail safe. “There is this idea… that you can check in somewhere and a nearby friend will see it and meet you,”air jordan 6 origanal he tells us. “It’s part of the reason I got so excited about Foursquare and the location app explosion a couple years ago. The problem is it just doesn’t happen that often.”
“You check in a thousand times on Foursquare and maybe a few times it’s led to meeting friends nearby.”cheap kids shoes
And that unreliability is why the seamless location app might be flawed. From early reviews of these trendsetting applications, they simply won’t work if no one is checking in near you. “I’m a huge believer in serendipity and the magic behind those connections,” says Pinnell. “We’re giving the opportunity for them to happen more often by pushing the future aspect.”air jordan 11
Pinnell says Forecasts have a very high conversion rate – about 80-percent. Of course that’s relative to the user number, but that number has been growing.
It seems like there’s a continuum of sorts here: apps like Highlight leave too much to chance, Foursquare too little. Forecast is trying to find the sweet spot between them.
Forecast’s Facebook integration means you can plan and create Forecasts through the social network, and they will be recorded to your personal Timeline as well.
The app is looking into its own future as well. There are a few monetization strategies it’s looking at, all of them leveraging consumers’ location and check-in data for brands and businesses. For instance, if users were checking in to go to happy hour, they might get a suggested check-in and deal offer from a karaoke joint nearby. The high conversion rate of Forecast could make this particularly attractive to local business owners. Pinnell assures us that despite its profit scheme, the user experience is what comes first, saying Forecast wants to “build the social part first, the business second.”air jordan 7 retro cardinal

Santorum vows to cut taxes, regulations, spending
Santorum told Michigan voters that social welfare programs have made millions of Americans dependent on government for the kind of help that churches and civic groups used to provide.When that happens, "we become detached from our neighbors," he said.

Santorum's campaign had billed his 55-minute speech as a major announcement of his agenda for his first 100 days in office. But the proposals were familiar ones. They included steep cuts in spending and regulations, and the repeal of "Obamacare," the 2010 Democratic-crafted health care overhaul.funcky cheap shoes
Santorum said people who lose money when selling their houses should be allowed to take a tax deduction on their loss. Otherwise, he said, the government should get out of the housing and mortgage industry and let the private market return the troubled sector to equilibrium.cheap niblick golf shoes
He repeated his calls for a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution and an aggressive program of drilling for more domestic oil and gas.
As usual, Santorum sharply criticized President Barack Obama on several fronts, and took a few swipes at his chief GOP rival, Mitt Romney.
He said the health care program that Romney initiated as Massachusetts governor has proven ineffective, a claim Romney disputes. Santorum also said Romney's proposal to limit tax deductions for charitable gifts by rich people would hurt churches and civic organizations.nike jordan 5
