Are we seeing a new team / coaching tactic emerge this season ?
Geez Lexi, i consider you a great thinker of our game, but no no no, it just doesn't happen as simply as the flick of a switch. I was fortunate several years ago as chairman of selectors,and footy director at a regional footy club, to have the opportunity to coach the clubs senior team in one game. The senior coach had to attend an overseas work conference, the team had lost every game the previous year, and the first 15 games of the new season, before i coached in round 16. There was no flicking of switches, The magnetic board i was given, showed the names of 22 young men the senior coach had selected for the game, before leaving for his overseas trip. Previously i had coached in 200 odd U18 games, so i had a couple of ideas about coaching, but when i stood in front of this team of 22 before the game, they each had their individual opionions, personalities, life problems, and associated issues with parents, girlfriends and wives. My message before the game was simple short and sweet, the boss is away, go out today and enjoy yourselves, have fun, work hard for front spot, talk correctly to each other and run past at every opportunity,from marks, free kicks, and a teammate picking up off the ground . The team won its first and only game in 2 years by 7 points . In the rooms after the game 3 oldtimers, overjoyed by the victory,funnily enough asked the question of me " how did you flick the switch", i just said i didn't, it just happened. In all reality it had nothing to do with me, "the team won the game" . I had no special tactic, just luck on the day, and i believe thats how AFL footy still works today, the coach has no special powers !!
In the Deal Between Santos and America Suarez to Santos for Benitez plus A great Amount of Money?
He has his ups and downs, but I think he is pretty good. He isnt one of the best Ecuadorians in the league, but he is still good enough. We still need one center forward since Suarez is more of a winger or attacking mid.
Do I cancel plans with my friends last minute because of Bipolar disorder?
Like a few days before I make plans I'm so excited then the day we're supposed to hang out I feel 'tired'. But I'm not really tired. It's like I fool myself to think I am, but I'm not. Then I call and cancel.Today I did this to my best friend :/
What could be wrong with my mom (bipolar)?
I'm afraid my mom may have bipolar, or some other mood disorder. She will be super happy, on top of the world one minute, and then the next she'll freak out over something little. For example, yesterday I brought up that I wished she had gone with me to go buy something (as part of my summer goals list), and she freaked out, calling me an ungrateful little b**** and saying I was going to be a failure in life for depending on other people (keep in mind, I'm 15, so I couldn't drive myself, and I have a 4.0 GPA). Since yesterday morning when she blew up, she hasn't said a word to me or my dad or my little brother, who's 8. Even when he (my little brother) says he needs help or something, she'll just sit there and wait for me to do it. All she's done is sit on the bed in our hotel room and read her book. She won't eat, even though she made a fuss about going to a sit-down restaurant (before blowing up). And this isn't the first time this has happened either. She drinks a lot (for no reason, other than she feels like it), and gets all defensive when we tell her she needs to stop after the 5th beer. In fact, she's extremely defensive in general. When she's not mad or drinking, she's super happy, and offers to make everything better by taking me shopping. And even when she is mad, she'll purposely treat other people (like when she has an episode in a store) super nice and friendly, and when we get back to the car she'll keep yelling. And once she's started yelling, she won't stop. She'll keep repeating the same things over and over, and bring up things that happened, like, months ago. Then a day or two later, she'll act like it never happened and be super nice again. It's gotten to the point where I don't like leaving her home alone with my little brother, because she's threatened to just run off and take him with her. I know I'm kind of rambling here, but I want to be thorough. I'm thinking it may be bipolar because her side of the family has a history of it, including her aunt and her grandma. I don't want to bring up going to a psychiatrist, because I know it will tick her off again. What do you think? What can I do to make it stop?
Why is the Obama administration banning the Boston Herald from its Boston based fund raiser today?
The Democrats/Liberals control most of the media and what they say or print. The Boston Newspaper doesn't fall in line they are cut off. It's funny they being banned for being biased. I wonder if The NY Times, Washington Post and all the other leftist rags are also being banned.
Relationship help...?
Find another girl. You are 15 you have plenty of time to make friends. Shes far gone. If one fight drove her away then you guys would never make good friends because a true friend will stick with you even through the worst fights. Not saying you should keep your disorder a secret but just be careful who you tell about it because even people who you think you can trust may use it against you somehow. hope this helped.
Can I withdraw provident fund 3 years after leaving the service?
I heard there is a recent directive from EPFO that if the PF a/c is dormant for more than 3 years, you can not withdraw / transfer the amount. 31st Mar 2011 is the last date for claiming withdrawal / transfer of all such a/c. Is it true?
