Blatter is just another one of those mafia mobs of international sport commitees like Ecclestone and Mosley. In Italy the football business is focused on broadcasting royalties, no one cares about playgrounds for schools and youth, nor for education. Murdock and Berlusconi sport channels will never get a dime from me. edit: the fact that wikipedia report that Blatter'salary is unknown says a lot about the man. http://www.playthegame.org/news/detailed/fifa-president-talks-about-his-salary-and-denies-bribery-repayment-1222.html

I think that could be interesting if forum member would post the real price for the stuff named in the article. Food: Lunch at a restaurant Can of beer from grocer One kg of rice One dozen eggs Entertainment: Movie ticket Appliances: Washing machine As the article explains rent, utilities, and school fees aren't included in the survey, that makes it pretty lame IMHO. Here they are in Rome, EU: Food: Lunch at a restaurant 25 $ Can of beer from grocer 0,60 $ One kg of rice 3 $ One dozen eggs 3,50 $ Entertainment: Movie ticket 8,66 $ Appliances: Washing machine 430 $

Agree, we have a (questionable) super high-tech new ball, super high-definition broadcasting, big screens INSIDE the stadium, and the referee can't watch it, because of the FIFA rules, while all the spectators worldwide, and INSIDE the stadium, can see an obvious offside. This is just ridicolous.

Seems you're living in the wrong town ... all peaceful joy over here - probably more happeing in central city. I think that mostly young team deverved to win - they have a lot of potential. p.s. by now that talk about karma re. England vs. Germany should be considered settled. For me it is. Why wrong town? The good-looking, scantily-clad ladies wearing flags are in the right one!

Hope he will not be back in Italy, the man is so unappealing, may I suggest him a lifetime contract as coach of Turkmenistan national team? Any turkmenistani forum member?

I am not a computer wizard, but I had zero problem with the router I have, Netgear. Basically I had to hook up through a ethernet cable the router at the computer (Macs) and fix the settings, both of the router and the computer. Obviously if you don't know nothing about device address, etc, I suggest getting some professional help. edit: on side note, if the router's software is older then six months, be sure to check on the website if there is an upgrade.

I am pretty sure Berg had his mojo working when wrote down the concerto.

Are you kidding? International communist conspiracy deprived US of curling's medals: Everybody knows that hawaians are masters of it. BTW, you, americans, should look at the shameful behavoir of the judges toward Jamaica's bobsled team too.

Billie Holiday - The Complete Commodore Recordings - Japan King box set.

Sonny Rollins - The Standards - RCA, Japan. Not the greatest Sonny's record, but I loved it from the first listening and I still do.

Sweet memories, I was a boy...a young man.

Larry Young - Unity - Music Matters reissue 45rpm.

Well I can assure you that when you destroyed a brand new BMW R80 GS on a rear of a car, like I did, because of a charming brunette, along the coast drive, you definitely learn it.

Wise man. Not many time ago I looked at my collection and suddenly realized I'll not have enough time to really 'know' all that music, unless I'll die at 150 year old or later. I gave up my compulsive habits, (well some of them, I still drink wine, drive fast motorbike and gaze at women, not when I'm driving...) Now and then malaria's fever get me, so I spent some bucks on quinine, vinyl-pack, and that's all.

My neighbour's kid has been given one "Play the 'zela, make my day"

Over here, the general opinion is "The worst italian team...ever". Considering that we were in all WC final tournament, it's quiet an achievement.

deservedly IMHO.

Glad to hear it arrived OK Yeah, it tooks a while, but it was worth it.

Not sure, Ghana is an unpredictable host, after Germany scored I thought that Germany should score at least one/two goal on counterattacks, they didn't, overall Ghana had much more chance to score then Germany, so a drawn would have been much fair.

John Patton - Along Came John - BN, NY mono, won on ebay, got it today... from AUSTRALIA!

Ah, I am a Scorpio too, so that's the reason I think Domenech is the most unappealing trainer of the WC, actually he gained the title against strong competition: Lippi and Capello among the others. On the other side I love Maradona's new look, quite a hick mafia mob, at least he smiles and hugs everyone, I'd do the same I'd got Messi and co. in my team.

Lou Reed - Rock'n Roll Animal - RCA, infamous Dynaflex pressing, never understood why it's so hated, it just sound excellent. Neil Young - Neil Young Archive Vol 3, Massey Hall 1971.

Not to be too competitive, but Italy will get that prize...whatever Zidane or Materazzi could do at their homes. No - England are Spartacus

Just wait for Italy, you'll got another choice.
