These social-listening companies work with newsrooms to help them understand the real-time impacts of news events, show politicians Ravens Jerseys For Cheap which issues are most important to make their campaigns more effective, and identify market trends and important events for financial institutions to get a leg up on trading. Even nonprofit organizations such Custom New York Jets NFL Jerseys as the Red Cross are using analysis of the Twitter stream to more effectively deliver aid. The companies can also pull data from Facebook, its Instagram subsidiary and the Tumblr unit of Yahoo Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO), but Twitter still leads the way when it comes to real-time information.

Television networks are likewise heavily invested in analyzing the Twitter data stream. Once worried that social media took fans’ attention away from commercials, networks now encourage fans to chat about the shows using official hashtags. A network such as CBS can then use an analytics service to see how many people are tweeting about “How I Met Your Mother†versus “2 Broke Girls,†and whether those viewers are saying positive or negative things, while uncovering information about their ages, locations and interests. Nielsen ratings could never provide that sort of detail about demographics, and it helps CBS adjust its advertising as it delivers targeted commercial messages across an array of platforms, including Twitter.

In its IPO filing, Twitter acknowledged the usefulness of the data, albeit in understated terms. “We provide our data partners with the tools and data to find the right signal for the right audience,†the company noted. “Our users tweet to express their thoughts and opinions about what is happening around them, creating data that can be analyzed to identify trends and other valuable insights.â€

In the first six months of 2013, data licensing generated $32.2 million for Twitter, a 53 percent increase compared with the same period in 2012. Although Twitter said Authentic New York Giants Jerseys Sale the company expects data-licensing revenue to decrease as a percentage of its total revenue over time, that will be more the result of ballooning advertising revenue than from Twitter shrinking this portion of the business.

So why isn’t Twitter making more of a show of it with its IPO? There are many potential reasons. Data reselling isn’t as publicly alluring, doesn’t make nearly as much money as the advertising department makes and involves a chain of sales rather than just direct revenue. It could also be a deliberate public-relations move by Twitter in the wake of Edward Snowden’s leaks and growing concerns about digital privacy.

“You go down a slippery slope the moment someone talks about ‘my data being used,’ even,†said , a professor of strategy and entrepreneurship at the University Custom New York Jets Jerseys of North Carolina who studies how brands successfully leverage social media.

Malhotra indicated he sees the two revenue Authentic Ravens Jerseys Sale streams of Twitter as more interrelated than separate. Analytics are essential to good advertising, and the data-licensing business is what’s happening behind the scenes to create a strong advertising platform. By keeping it in the background, even in its IPO filing, Twitter can highlight the sexier, more profitable revenue stream to investors.

“It’s the plumbing, a mean to an ends,†Malhotra said. “The goal is to accurately target messages to people. [Twitter] avoids the negative backlash and highlights the larger revenue-producing product.â€

In fact, data licensing has New York Giants Jerseys For Cheap several pitfalls beyond the potential for a public backlash. The reported that 75 percent of the information shared on Twitter comes from Americans and that 30 percent of the data comes from people under the age of 30, which means the demographics are limited. Twitter also has a problem with spammers, bots, fake Twitter accounts and hackers, all of which contribute their share of incorrect information. These misrepresents the number of users on Twitter and disrupt the social-listening algorithms designed to compute demographics, the popularity of a message and user sentiment. Such pitfalls may be another reason Twitter is attempting to play its data-licensing hand close to its vest.

Still, as long as Twitter can continue to grow its user base, there is no question the data those users generate will continue to become more valuable, and there will be no shortage of businesses looking to condense the data fire hose into the equivalent of 140-characters-or-less of extremely useful marketing information.

Verlander pitched eight shutout innings and Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run home run as the Tigers clinched the ALDS with a 3-0 victory at the O.co Coliseum. Kim Klement-USA TODAY Sports

OAKLAND, Calif. Detroit Tigers manager Jim Leyland took one look at right-hander Justin Verlander before Game 5 of the American League Division Series against the Oakland A s on Thursday and knew his team was in good shape.

I can usually tell by the look on his face and his demeanor before the game if he s locked in, and he was locked in tonight, Leyland said.

Was he ever.

Verlander pitched eight shutout innings and Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run home run as the Tigers clinched the ALDS with a 3-0 victory at the O.co Coliseum.

The Tigers advanced to the AL Championship Series for the third straight year and will face the Boston Red Sox. Game 1 is Saturday night at Fenway Park.

For the second straight season, Verlander beat the A s in a Game 5 of the ALDS at Oakland. Last year he threw a four-hit shutout, striking out 11 and walking one in a 6-0 Tigers win.

This time he allowed just two hits over eight innings while striking out 10 and walking one.

I just go out there when my team needs me most, Verlander said. It s something you dream about as a kid.

Tigers closer Joaquin Benoit allowed a two-out double to Jed Lowrie in the ninth then hit Yoenis Cespedes with a pitch, but he retired Seth Smith on a fly ball to right field for the third out and the save.

The A s, who have won back-to-back AL West titles, fell to 1-12 in their past 13 potential postseason series clinching games, all in the ALDS. They lost Game 5 in 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2012 and now, 2013.

In back-to-back Game 5 losses, the A s had no answer for Verlander.

Our fans are just waiting for a reason to get into a frenzy, A s manager Bob Melvin said. We just needed baserunners and our fans would get into it and pull us like they did last year. We just weren t able to get any consistency going except the last inning where if we ran into one we could potentially tie the game.

Our guys are frustrated with the way the game went and some of the at-bats, but, again, we still Wholesale NFL Jerseys have a lot to be proud Cheap New York Giants Jerseys Sale of. We expected to go a little farther than Cheap New York Giants Jerseys On Sale Wholesale Jerseys this this year, but at the end of the day we did have a great season. A little more disappointing this year certainly than it was last year.

Verlander retired the first 16 batters he faced before Josh Reddick ended his perfect-game bid with a walk with one out in the sixth. But Verlander retired Stephen Vogt on a deep fly to right-center and Coco Crisp on a soft fly to left.

A s left fielder Yoenis Cespedes broke up Verlander cheap nfl jerseys s bid for his first postseason no-hitter with a two-out single in the seventh. Facing a 1-0 count, Cespedes grounded Verlander s 95 mph, outside fastball to center field. Verlander struck out Smith on a nasty curveball for the third out. Reddick lined a two-out single to center in the eighth, but Verlander struck out Vogt.

A s rookie Sonny Gray took the loss, allowing three runs on six hits, including Cabrera s homer, over five innings. He walked four one of those intentional struck out three and suffered a broken left thumb on a Prince Fielder comebacker in the fifth.

Verlander and Gray met in a rematch of their Game 2 duel at Oakland. Neither pitcher figured in the decision Saturday, but Gray, making his postseason debut, threw eight shutout innings and struck out nine in a 1-0 A s victory. Verlander struck out 11 and pitched seven scoreless innings.

He pitched fine tonight, Melvin said of Gray. His ball-strike ratio was a little off for him. Therefore he couldn t get deeper in the game. At the end of the day he basically just gives up a home run to Miguel Cabrera. When he did get in jams, he ended up making pitches to get himself out of it. He pitched fine tonight. When you don t score a run and you only get a couple of hits or whatever it was, you have to be perfect.

After going scoreless against Gray for 11 straight innings, the Tigers finally broke through to score twice in the fourth. Torii Hunter broke up Gray s no-hitter, grounding a single to center with one out, and Cabrera launched a 1-0 fastball over the left field fence to make it 2-0.

To me, he s nfl jerseys online for sale a great pitcher, Cabrera said of Gray. The first time we saw him he pitched an excellent game. We were able to be patient (Thursday), to swing at our pitch.

The Tigers added a run in the sixth to make it 3-0.

Verlander improved to 4-0 in five career postseason starts against the A s.

NOTES: Peralta, who started Games 3 and 4 in left field, returned to shortstop, his natural position, for Game 5, pushing Jose Iglesias to the bench. Don Kelly started in left field. Peralta entered Game 5 batting .375 (3-for-8) with five RBIs, a double and a three-run homer, which he hit in Detroit s 8-6 win in Game 4. Oakland 2B Alberto Callaspo made his first start of the series, replacing Eric Sogard, who 0-for-9 in the first four games. Former A s right-hander Dave Stewart, the MVP of the 1989 World Series, threw out the ceremonial first pitch.

More than 2,500 people had been evacuated from coastal villages before the typhoon struck, said Amado Elson Egargue, Discount 49ers Jerseys a provincial disaster officer. Maj. Rey Balido, from the civil defence force, said 12 people reported killed in four provinces included a man who was electrocuted, a police officer buried in a landslide while waiting to join cheap jerseys online a rescue mission, four people who drowned in floodwaters and five who were hit by falling trees. The body of a fisherman was also recovered, and three others were missing, he added.Wilhelmino M Sy-Alvarado, a Bulacan provincial governor, said a 70-year-old man had died of a heart attack when the roof of his house was blown off.He said more that than 49ers Jerseys Sale 20 villages remained flooded yesterday, with some areas under about Cheap Indianapolis Colts Jerseys Sale 2 metres of water.A major highway in Bulacan was flooded and authorities were allowing only trucks and other large vehicles to pass.Aurelio Umali, governor of Nueva Ecija, said that fallen trees and electricity pylons had blocked all the major roads in the province.He said the initial estimate was that 15,000 hectares of rice may have been damaged or destroyed.The typhoon drenched Manila overnight but caused no widespread flooding in the sprawling capital, which is home to 12 Cheap Indianapolis Colts Jerseys On basketball jerseys cheap Sale million and often floods because of poor infrastructure and clogged drainage and water canals.Nari was the 19th storm to hit the country this year.

“It’s really community support,†said Mike Garrett, director of managed care at Providence Health Center. “It’s part of our mission as a nonprofit health care organization to provide care to the most vulnerable, the poor, the sick. We also felt like there wasn’t a lot of information out there for people to get. So, we felt like it was our role to let people know what the (Affordable Care Act) is.â€

In an effort to help inform patients, Providence is opening a free “education center†Monday staffed with volunteers and a certified application counselor.

Hours will be 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, but pamphlets and information will be available in the center at all hours.

Providence’s Cheap Authentic New York Jets Jerseys On Sale website — — also routes viewers directly to the insurance marketplace through an “enroll now†tab.

Hillcrest Baptist Medical Center also has begun building access to health insurance information through its website and will have a certified application counselor available to patients who come into the emergency room, but it’s uncertain when Cheap New Orleans Saints Jerseys On Sale that will begin, officials said.

Culture change

Jana Whitaker, vice president of volunteer and marketing for Providence, said the education center will stay open at Denver Broncos Jerseys For Cheap least through the end of open enrollment in March, possibly indefinitely, but it’s part of a larger push from nonprofit and private health care advocates to educate the public about their health insurance options.

“We’re changing a culture,†Whitaker said. “A culture that’s not used to even having insurance. So, the biggest task will be out in the community educating on how to do this.â€

McLennan County has 46,000 uninsured people, which is about 19 percent of the population.

Providence sees most Authentic Denver Broncos Jerseys Sale of its uninsured patients in the emergency room, Garrett said. Many people are unaware the law will go into effect in 2014, he said.

The Affordable Care Act requires everyone to have health insurance that covers at least 60 percent of their health care costs. The law also created tax subsidies for those living between Cheap Authentic New York Jets Jerseys Sale 100 percent and 400 percent poverty guidelines who don’t have access to insurance through employment.

“There’s a lot of confusion on what’s mandated and what it was intended to do,†Garrett said. “And a lot of people that this hits have never had insurance before so they don’t even know how insurance works.â€

Providence and Hillcrest/Scott White Healthcare officials both said their uncompensated care sits between $70 million and $80 million per year, but Cheap New Orleans Saints Jerseys Sale Garrett said it’s still unknown how much that will decrease because of newly insured patients.

As part of its community outreach, Providence has partnered with health reform advocacy group Enroll America, who will organize events such as health-fair booths and public group presentations.

“We’re here to make sure people know about the new affordable options that Texans really need to take care of their health care needs,†Enroll America field organizer Kathy McDonald said.

Bernie Vince has headed on an overseas holiday with a four-year offer from Melbourne to consider and late interest from Greater Western Sydney to contemplate as he decides whether to leave Adelaide.

The Giants met Vince on Sunday before he flew to the United States, with the club determined to add some experience Authentic New York Giants Jerseys Sale to its list but not yet ready to offer the 27-year-old onballer a contract. The Demons had met him earlier.

Adelaide's decision on whether to trade the contracted Vince, who becomes a free agent Nike NFL Jerseys at the end of next season, may depend on which pick Melbourne is given by the AFL as compensation for losing free agent Colin Sylvia to Fremantle.

The Demons are hopeful of being granted a second-round pick in the draft, which would leave them with picks 20 and 21 and the opportunity to trade one of those choices while still holding prime position in the second round. An end-of-second-round choice, at No.35, would be less valuable.

The Crows are open to trading Vince given their midfield depth and his pending free agency status, but are attempting to secure a pick ahead of Port Custom Denver Broncos Jerseys Wholesale Adelaide's No.30 Cheap Authentic Denver Broncos Jerseys Wholesale so that the club can on-trade it to Brisbane for Jared Polec.

Polec, out of contract, has been happy to join either the Crows or Power but may decide New NFL Jerseys in the next day or two to request a move to either club in an effort to get the trade moving.

Adelaide is also considering an offer for contracted utility Ricky Henderson, with Collingwood the most interested party, while Jarryd Lyons has attracted the interest of Melbourne and Adelaide.

The Crows would seek pick 27 for Henderson, with Collingwood likely to offer No.45. The Magpies are also set to secure Swans pair Jesse White and Tony Armstrong reasonably cheaply, with Sydney needing to free up salary cap space.

Essendon has also spoken to Vince, but as it stands the Bombers have nothing to offer the Crows other than uncontracted key forward Scott Gumbleton, whose preference is to join Fremantle.

The Dockers have not yet decided whether to pursue Gumbleton, with the club waiting on the results of scans and other medical testing conducted in Perth late last week. The club expects to have the information it needs to make a decision in the next couple of days.

Essendon is well placed to land Paul Chapman, with the delisted Geelong star seeking the security of a guaranteed two-year contract and his other suitor, Carlton, baulking at his contract terms.

Lion Sam Docherty will get to the Blues, with the clubs haggling over which draft pick Carlton will need to hand over for the young defender. The Lions want pick 28, with the Blues preferring to stay one spot ahead in the draft order and give them No.29. West Coast has some interest in contracted Blue Josh Bootsma, who is only interested in leaving if he gets to move home to Perth.

The Giants are awaiting Heath Shaw's decision on whether he wants to play for GWS or Geelong next year. Shaw returned from an overseas trip New York Giants Jerseys For Cheap late last week and should make his call in the next day or two.

The Giants are still asking for pick 21 for key defender Josh Bruce from St Kilda. However, the Saints have agreed to swap that pick for one of Hawthorn's two picks in the teens, once the Hawks are compensated for Lance Franklin's defection.

BOSTON (CBS) – Baseball has been around for Custom New York Jets NFL Jerseys a while, yet there s always something that happens in the course of a game that never or rarely has Authentic Ravens Jerseys Sale had happened New York Giants Jerseys For Cheap before.

It took of all of one inning for that moment to come on Saturday night.

In the first inning of Game 1 of the ALCS between the Red Sox and Tigers, Anibal Sanchez recorded four strikeouts.

It was something that in the history of postseason baseball had happened just once, when Orval Overall recorded four strikeouts in the 1908 World Series. Authentic New York Giants Jerseys Sale For some perspective, that was the last time the Cubs won the World Series, so you know this is the type of Custom New York Jets Jerseys occurrence that doesn t happen all too often.

Sanchez struck out Jacoby Ellsbury to begin the inning before getting Shane Victorino to chase a pitch in the dirt for strike three. However, the ball didn t bounce quite like catcher Alex Avila anticipated, and the ball went through his legs and all the way to the backstop, allowing Victorino to reach base.

After Sanchez walked Dustin Pedroia, he then appeared to have walked David Ortiz. However, third base umpire Alfonso Marquez ruled that Ortiz had Ravens Jerseys For Cheap swung on an appeal to third base.

Sanchez then got Mike Napoli to strike out swinging to retire the side.

Not only was it just the second time a pitcher has recorded four strikeouts in one postseason, but it was also the first time any Tigers pitcher had accomplished the feat.

Sep 29, 2013; Oakland, CA, USA; Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III (10) walks on the Nike NFL Jerseys field during a break in the action against the Oakland Raiders New NFL Jerseys in the fourth quarter at O.co Coliseum. Cheap Authentic Denver Broncos Jerseys Wholesale The Redskins defeated the Raiders 24-14. Mandatory Credit: Cary Edmondson-USA TODAY Sports

Is Robert Griffin III the same dynamic player he was before he tore ligaments in his right knee? Does he look like the guy who threw for four touchdowns in a victory over the Cowboys last November? These are questions that have been asked in the days leading up to Sunday’s clash between Dallas and Washington.

Griffin says he is starting to feel like himself again. And that should worry opponents. After all, Griffin threw for Authentic New York Giants Jerseys Sale 3,200 yards, ran for 815 more and posted a quarterback rating of 102.4 as a rookie. Through four games, Griffin hasn’t looked nearly as mobile and has operated mostly as a pocket passer.

“He’s still a great quarterback, going out there making plays,†Cowboys defensive end George Selvie.

But he doesn’t seem to be playing at the level he did prior to the injury. Whether a week of rest provided by the bye will help Griffin recapture the burst that made him so difficult to defend last New York Giants Jerseys For Cheap season is uncertain. But the Cowboys are preparing as if he is the Custom Denver Broncos Jerseys Wholesale Griffin of old.

“He looks the same to me,†cornerback Orlando Scandrick said.

Griffith was asked about the fast-approaching debt ceiling, which if not raised, threatens to drag Custom New York Giants Jerseys For Sale the U.S. economy back into a recession. He on Saturday that he is not concerned with the economic consequences so long as he and his party get their way.

“We have to make a decision that’s right long-term for the United States, and what may be distasteful, unpleasant and not appropriate in the Custom New York Giants NFL Jerseys For Sale short run may be something that has to be done, he said after a meeting of the House GOP, joining of Republicans who have dismissed the consequences of blowing through the debt Custom Ravens NFL Jerseys For Sale ceiling and causing a default on the nation s Cheap Jerseys payments,

But he offered a novel explanation for why he believes this kind of economic brinksmanship is necessary: because our founding fathers did it too:

“I will remind you that this group of renegades that decided that they wanted to break from the Cheap Authentic New York Giants Jerseys Sale crown in 1776 did great damage to the economy of the colonies. They created the greatest nation and the best Cheap NFL Jerseys form of government, but they did damage to the economy in the short run.â€

Griffith made no mention of the revolutionary war that proceeded the colonies act of economic vigilantism.

In recent days, some Republicans have from plans to hold up a budget agreement unless Obamacare is defunded. The move came as business groups and conservative organizations like Heritage Action and the Koch Brothers that default would bring about economic catastrophe.

However Dr Wilkinson thinks large ore deposits form when underground magma is saturated with sulphide, which concentrates the tiny trace amounts of metal in the magma.Heat then binds the tiny molecules of the Custom Denver Broncos Jerseys Wholesale same metal together Nike NFL Jerseys until masses of gold, iron and nickel and other metals are formed.He says those masses cool and large metal deposits are left.Macquarie University's Professor William Griffin, who's been studying the distribution New York Giants Jerseys For Cheap of diamond, gold and metal deposits, believes that the earth's mantle holds the key.He thinks the mantle acts like a mould Authentic New York Giants Jerseys Sale that guides upwelling magma into pockets.If those pockets and the passages that lead to them from the earth's core are a certain shape and size, and New NFL Jerseys made out of certain materials, then large ore deposits are likely to form Cheap Authentic Denver Broncos Jerseys Wholesale when the magma cools.The three reviews are the first to give a geochemical footprint for miners and geologists to look for when searching for large ore deposits.They are part of a collection of articles on economic geology, and argue that the search for giant deposits could potentially be made more efficient.The studies will be published in the UK journal Nature Geoscience on Monday.

Just weeks afterand amid mounting pressure from school advocates and civil rights groups, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett announced on Wednesday that he would release $45 Cheap Authentic Indianapolis Colts Jerseys Sale million in funding that he鈥檇 been withholding from the beleaguered Philadelphia School District.

For months Republican Gov. Corbett said that, a one-time federal grant, without $100 million in contract concessions from the teachers union and various reforms by the city and school district.聽A month and a half into the school year, the city鈥檚 teachers are still working under an expired contract. City leaders and state Democrats Custom Patriots Jerseys Wholesale have argued that reforms are being made and have demanded the release of the money, as. Facing a $304 million budget shortfall, the district shuttered 23 public schools and laid off nearly 4,000 employees.

Charles Zogby, Corbett鈥檚 budget secretary, that district Superintendent William R. Hite Jr. has detailed in a letter a number of 鈥渙perational, financial and managerial reforms鈥?that illustrate satisfactory progress made by the district.

鈥淭here s been a lot of movement in the area of reform that has improved the financial health and performance of the district,鈥?Zogby said, adding that another key element to the release of the funds were changes in teacher work rules, including the adjustment of work rules regarding seniority placements.

鈥淟et me be clear: There should never have been a delay in the release of these funds,鈥?said Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. 鈥淏ut Cheap Authentic Indianapolis Colts Jerseys On Sale thanks to the united voices of thousands of parents, students, teachers and community activists from Philadelphia and across the country, Gov. Corbett has finally done the right thing.鈥?

Last week, a group of civil rights groups including the NAACP and the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights urging him to release the school funding. The group said that聽鈥淧hiladelphia has become a cautionary tale for the rest of the country, illustrating the harm that occurs when political posturing and irresponsible budget decisions trump the educational needs of students, families, and communities.鈥?And that by聽withholding the funds, 鈥渢he state is knowingly jeopardizing鈥?students鈥?futures.鈥?

In response to Corbett s announcement on Wednesday, Wade Henderson, the president of The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, said the governor has taken an important step in the right direction.

鈥淒epriving students of access to teachers, nurses, librarians, and guidance counselors should never be used as Custom Giants NFL Jerseys a bargaining chip in school funding negotiations,鈥?Wade said. 鈥淕overnor Corbett should be commended for today鈥檚 action; however, his earlier brinkmanship might still embolden governors of other states with school funding inequities to take a page from his political playbook.聽 That鈥檚 why this is not just a local issue 鈥?but a national nfl jerseys factory one. Governor Corbett must now move forward to fix the dysfunctional way in which the state unfairly funds schools to meet the educational needs of students, families, and communities.鈥?

The school closings and layoffs over the summer have had a dramatic impact on Philadelphia public school students. Many schools don鈥檛 have full-time nurses or counselors. Extracurricular activities, arts and enrichment programs have been cut. Class sizes have swelled. In all, 9,000 students have been transferred from shuttered schools to new ones, often outside of their neighborhood. . Just days before the start of the school year last month, the city had to borrow $50 million just to ensure that school doors would open on time.

聽鈥淭he school district must immediately begin the process of restoring all of our school counselors, secretaries, and non-instructional personnel, increase the number of school nurses and eliminate split grades in our schools,鈥?Jerry Jordan, president of the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, said in a statement.

Corbett has cut nearly a $1 billion from state education funding, and parents and opponents of the cuts and closures in Philadelphia have long Custom Giants Jerseys argued that the economic starvation of the schools is creating an unsafe and dangerous school environment.聽Late last month, Laporshia Massey, a 12-year-old fell ill at her elementary school and later died of an asthma attack. Her school has a single nurse on duty only twice a week. The nurse was not on duty the day that she died.

In the wake of the girl鈥檚 death, student advocacy and civil rights groups have stepped up pressure on Corbett to release the $45 million and for state legislators to develop a school funding formula that better serves the city鈥檚 schools and high-needs student population.

聽鈥淥f course it鈥檚 good that Gov. Corbett is releasing the funding, however, the circumstances leading to the release of the funds are not,鈥?said Quanisha Smith, the co-executive director of, a group that advocates on behalf of low-income residents. 鈥淲e had a young girl who died because she didn鈥檛 have a school nurse. Possibly that situation could have been avoided if she had a nurse in the building.鈥?

Helen Gym, founder of, called the soon-to-be released funds 鈥渁 drop in the bucket.鈥?The school district says it needs atleast $180 million to operate the school adequetly.

聽鈥淔or more than six weeks students and families in the school district have suffered under this purposeful defunding of public education in Philadelphia,鈥?Gym said. 鈥淚t has not only resulted in students being denied basic services, but a child died. There wasn鈥檛 a parent in the city of Philadelphia that didn鈥檛 read that story and think that could have been their child.鈥?

The $45 million is a start, she said, but 鈥渋t came with a lot of struggle.鈥?

NEW DELHI At least 64 people were killed Sunday in a stampede by masses of Hindu worshippers crossing a bridge to a temple in central India, police said.

The chaos broke out as rumours spread that the bridge was collapsing over the Sindh River, D.K. Arya, deputy inspector general of police in the Chambal region of Madhya Pradesh state, told the Nike NFL Jerseys Press Trust of India.

Some women and children were among the 64 people who were killed, he said. More than 100 people were being treated in a hospital for Cheap Indianapolis Colts Jerseys On Sale injuries including broken bones.

New NFL Jerseys Police wielding sticks had charged the crowd in an effort to contain the panic, Arya said. People retaliated by hurling stones at officers, and one officer was badly injured.

It was not immediately clear how many people were on the bridge when the stampede started. Local media said some 500,000 people had gone to Authentic New Orleans Saints Jerseys Sale the remote Ratangarh village temple in the Madhya Pradesh district of Datia to honour the Hindu mother Cheap Indianapolis Colts Jerseys Sale goddess Durga on the last day of the popular 10-day Navaratra festival.

The New Orleans Saints Jerseys For Cheap state has ordered a judicial inquiry into the incident.

Sonia Gandhi, the leader of India s ruling Congress Party, expressed shock and deep anguish over the tragic incident, according to a party statement.

Rory McIlroy has because he is desperate to finally regain his top form, but he will have much more than the break-up on his mind over the next few weeks.

Wozniacki is said to be 'absolutely devastated' after the two-time Major winner called things off, but McIlroy cannot be in the best of places either as he struggles with a legal wrangle over commission.

The 24-year-old has apparently dumped Wozniacki - who described him as her ideal boyfriend - after a two-year relationship in wholesale nfl jerseys cheap the hope of getting back on course in his career and retaining his status as the world's top-ranked golfer.

McIlroy begins a month-long tour of Asia on Monday that is set to earn him well in advance of a£3 million in appearance fees alone, and he will probably be delighted to get away from everything as a legal dispute kicks into gear.

The young Ulsterman has been embroiled Custom 49ers NFL Jerseys in a high-profile split with his former management company, Horizon Sports Management, after officially forming the creatively-named Rory McIlroy Incorporated.

McIlory was understood to be unhappy with the amount of commission taken by Horizon - estimated by the Daily Telegraph to have been a£4.7 million after he signed a deal worth a£78m with Nike, in addition to other lucrative sponsorship deals.

The dispute is expected to be messy for McIlroy as Horizon counter-sues the golfer for quitting a five-year contract and the full details of his staggering multi-million-pound endorsements are revealed.

Although his relationship with Wozniacki may have been perceived as a distraction that had to be swept away, McIlroy's dizzying schedule may suggest that the problems lie elsewhere.

 

Over the course of the past fortnight, McIlroy has spent time with Wayne Rooney on a Nike photoshoot, Custom 49ers Jerseys played Cheap Authentic 49ers Jerseys Wholesale golf with former President Bill Clinton, had a photographed dinner with Clinton and Bono and turned up to watch Ulster beat Northampton in the Heineken Cup.

He will pocket $1.5m before even teeing up a ball at the Korea Open wholesale nfl jerseys china and it is believed an even greater fee awaits as he turns up for the BMW Masters in Shanghai next week.

He will board a private plane to travel 1,200 miles to the Chinese resort of Haikou to play an '18-hole showdown' with Tiger Woods that will be worth another $1m before heading straight back to Shanghai for the lucrative WGC Championship. An eye-watering itinerary indeed.

McIlroy has a lot going on, then, but inevitably the attention will remain fixed on his reportedly broken relationship with Wozniacki - whose slump from the top of the women's game over the last few years has been alarming.

Nine-time Major champion Gary Player said of McIlroy recently, to much ridicule, that he must find the right wife ready to dedicate her life to him being a success .

As Player told ESPN: If you're a young man like Rory, you can't play with worries. You can't have managerial problems, you can't have women problems.

It is not for anyone else to speculate as to whether McIlroy's struggles on the golf course had anything to do with his relationship with Wozniacki - and vice-versa on the tennis court - but there is enough additional distractions Custom 49ers Jerseys Wholesale to suggest that the Irishman has a lot to contend with at the moment.

There is not going to be a lot of sympathy for McIlroy as he trots off to rake in the cash in Asia, having disposed of his absolutely devastated girlfriend, but it seems that something had to give.

Michael Wacha will be the NLCS Game 2 starter for St. Louis. (Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports)

The St. Louis Cardinals hold home-field advantage for the National League Championship Series, but the Los Angeles Dodgers figure to have the pitching advantage, at least in the early games.

By virtue of wrapping up their NL Division Series win over the Atlanta Braves in four games, the Dodgers have their two aces lined up to pitch Games 1 and 2 of the NLCS. Zack Greinke will pitch the opener at St. Louis on Friday night, with Clayton Kershaw pitching the second game in Busch Stadium on Saturday.

I think we feel like both guys are Wholesale NFL Jerseys our number ones, Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said. I think both of those guys make us feel good, and coming in here with a club like St. Louis and knowing that they ve got, what kind of ballclub they have, to be able to come in here with those two guys, you feel like they re going to compete no matter where they re at. But in this environment, it s nice to have those two right on top.

The Cardinals needed the maximum five games to put away the pesky Pittsburgh cheap nfl jerseys Pirates in the NLDS, with ace Adam Wainwright earning wins in Games 1 and 5. Coming off his complete-game performance Wednesday, Wainwright won t be ready to pitch again until Game 3 against the Dodgers. In the meantime, second-year right-hander Joe Kelly and rookie righty Michael Wacha will open the series.

Kelly didn t enter the Cardinals rotation for good until July. Overall, he went 10-5 with a 2.69 ERA in 37 games (15 starts), then got a no-decision in his lone appearance in the NL Division Series. In Game 3 against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Kelly allowed three runs (two earned) in 5 1/3 innings.

When he did get the opportunities, he made the most of them and continued to come in here regardless of what his role, St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. These sort of things pay off in the long run, especially on a winning team. Joe just continued to push and work and show us that he Cheap New York Giants Jerseys Sale s ready for an opportunity like this one.

Greinke, the 2009 AL Cy Young Award winner with the Kansas City Royals, enjoyed a solid 2013 season with the Dodgers, albeit in the shadow of teammate Clayton Kershaw. Greinke went 15-4 with a 2.63 ERA. He lost his start in the NLDS against the Atlanta Braves, giving two runs over six innings in Game 2.

In the matchup of the teams offenses, the Cardinals posted a better batting average, on-base percentage and slugging percentage than the Dodgers this year.

The Dodgers bullpen is deeper than the Cardinals , with late-season arrival Brian Wilson becoming a key setup man ahead of closer Kenley Jansen. St. Louis relief corps took a hit when closer Edward Mujica pitched so poorly in September that he lost the ninth-inning role. In the Cardinals lone save chance against the Pirates, Trevor Rosenthal saved a 2-1 win in Game 4.

Still, the Cardinals will have their rabid fan base backing them, potentially for four games.

We love being at home, and we feel like we ve got a sea of red behind us, Matheny said. All in all, it comes down to execution, as to limiting the distractions and figuring out how to just do your piece and nothing more, nothing less. Regardless of odds, regardless of expectations, our guys have done that on a consistent basis, and I can Wholesale Jerseys see no reason why they won t continue.
