1) First, I don't have a text plan. I can't afford a text plan because Sprint sucks and as soon as my contract is up, I will be leaving them after a customer of 15 years. But, I see my Sprint (and the public pointed their error and greediness) finally followed the lead of other carriers and got rid of the text charges for donation texts for Haiti. (Now, if Sprint takes the lead of other carriers and cuts the rates or allows free calls to Haiti.)

2) While, texting to donate is convenient; it will be added to my phone bill, I want to know if I am going to get a tax receipt for my donation. Not that I make enough to claim deductions like that, but there are people who do. My guess is probably not.

3) Then there is the question of extra taxes on my cellphone bill for the $10+ (or multiple donations). Is the government going to wave the tax charges on these extra charge(s) on your cell bill? My guess is probably not. The government needs their share of the cut.

4) I also have the question on how long this money will take to get to Haiti. My guess 60 to 90 days. One your statement has to be sent to you, you need to pay it, then your carrier needs to cut the checks. (And, really when you think about it, look how fast it takes for them to credit your account for their errors.) Haiti needs your money NOW, not 60-90 days from now. Unless, these carriers plan on fronting the money, of which I can't see happening. That would be too much “risk” for them.

5) And this is just a general statement. Know who you are donating to and make sure it is a legitimate organization. Also, find out what percentage of the donation actually makes it to the cause.

Please go directly the websites and make your donation. You will get an eReceipt for tax purposes and these organizations will have their money right away.

I am happy to report, finally, that MasterCard, Visa & Discover Card are not charging the 2-3% swipe fee on credit card charges for donations made to the Haiti Earthquake. So, if you donate $10 through their website, the organization will get the full $10.

If you are sending checks or money orders to these organizations, please make sure you ear mark it by putting in the memo Haiti Earthquake Relief. Without an earmark, the organization legally can put it in their general fund and not end up going to people you want it to go to. DO NOT DONATE CASH!

Personally, I have donated to Doctors without Borders, UNICEF and Mercy Corps. I have received prompt tax receipts for all three organizations.

New Orleans makes a pitch to get the high school soccer championships at Tad Gormley

By Ted Lewis, The Times-Picayune

June 02, 2010, 6:30AM

Baton Rouge – A decade ago, Richard Smith became so involved in the Sugar Bowl's sponsorship of the state soccer championships that he considered it “my baby.”

Eliot Kamenitz/The Times-PicayuneThe Division I and III state soccer championships were held in Tad Gormley Stadium from 2000 to 2005, but were moved to Lafayette after Hurricane Katrina.And now, Smith is doing what he can to bring his baby back to New Orleans.

The LHSAA's executive committee will be awarding future championship sites in soccer, basketball, wrestling and softball at its annual summer meeting today, and Smith's offer to be a private title sponsor is part of the local bid that would bring the 2011 Division I (Class 5A) and Division III (3A-C) title matches to Tad Gormley Stadium.

The event would be called the Old Metairie Apartments State Soccer Championships after one of the properties Smith owns.

“We really had something going there, ” Smith said of the Sugar Bowl's time as the title sponsor for soccer plus other state championship events. “We had incredible crowds and an incredible atmosphere. Hopefully, we can do it again, and we feel like we've put together a very attractive bid package.”

The Division I and III soccer championships were played at Tad Gormley Stadium from 2000 to 2005 but moved to Lafayette in 2006 because of damage to the stadium from Hurricane Katrina.

Then because of a conflict between the Sugar Bowl's title sponsor, Allstate, and State Farm, the primary sponsor for LHSAA events, the Sugar Bowl could no longer be involved.

Subsequently, Shreveport put in the winning bid for the event for the past four years.

However, this year largely because all eight of the finalists were located along the I-10, I-12 corridor — and five of the eight from the metro area — attendance at 49,000-seat Independence Stadium was no more than 100 for the Division III matches and 500 for the Division I matches the next day.

“I know there was a lot of dissatisfaction about playing in Shreveport this year, ” Smith said. “Some of it, like the weather, couldn't be helped. But the fact is that teams from the New Orleans area dominate soccer in the state, and having to travel so far for the championship puts a real hardship on their fans. So since most of them can't go to the event, we want to bring it to them.”

Shreveport, Lake Charles and Pineville also are bidding for the soccer championships.

The bid is for 2011 only, instead of the normal two years. That's because LHSAA principals area expected to vote in January whether to add the Division II (Class 4A) title matches to the other four starting in 2012, or to play all six at home sites.

Division II soccer is the only state championship event not played at a predesignated site.

City Park athletic services director Tony Biagas said Tad Gormley Stadium was being proposed as the site instead of Pan-American Stadium, which is considered more soccer-friendly, because of better broadcast facilities and a dressing room for officials, which Pan-Am Stadium does not have.

Sacred Heart Coach Tooraj Badie, whose team won the Division III girls title this season and had played in the title match in the previous four, said he would prefer to play at Pan-Am Stadium chiefly because the track at the stadium makes the field there significantly smaller.

But wherever the site, he felt staging the championships in New Orleans, at least on a rotating basis, would be a good move.

“We liked going to Shreveport, and the folks up there do a great job, ” he said. “But most of our students couldn't make it. You want them to be able to enjoy the experience, too.”

The basketball bids are for the first two years, under the new format adapted in January and starting in 2012, which will have the semifinals for boys and girls played together at three regional sites on one weekend, and the finals played at one site the next weekend.

A contingent from Baton Rouge is bidding to have the title games played at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center on LSU's campus. The boys Top 28 was last played there in 1996 and has been held at Lafayette since.

Lafayette is bidding for the championship games, as is Bossier City.

The New Orleans Arena was invited to bid, but because of the inability to commit to dates because of Mardi Gras — plus the 2012 Final Four and the 2013 Women's Final Four — along with Hornets games, none was made.

Hammond and Southeastern Louisiana are the lone bidders for the southeastern regional site, and Lake Charles has the only bid for the southwestern regional. Bossier City and Monroe are bidding for the northern regional, but if Bossier gets the finals, the semifinals will go to Monroe.

The Pontchartrain Center in Kenner is seeking to retain the state wrestling championships, although there also is a bid from Bossier City.

Sulphur is the lone bidder to retain the softball championships.

CHICAGO, IL – U.S. Soccer has announced the groupings for the first two rounds of the 2010 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, which kicks off with first-round matches on Tuesday, June 15, around the country.

All 32 lower division teams will enter the tournament in the first round. First-round pairings were determined by dividing the clubs geographically into eight groups of four, with match-ups within each group determined by random draw. In the second round on June 22, the 16 first-round winners will face off, with eight victors moving into the third round to square off against eight Major League Soccer teams.

The third round will take place June 29, with the quarterfinals set for July 6-7, the semifinals on Aug. 31-Sept. 1 and the final slated for Oct. 5.

Of the 17 amateur division teams representing the U.S. Adult Soccer Association regional qualifiers and the Premier Development League, only the Arizona Sahuaros (USASA) are returning for their second consecutive U.S. Open Cup. The Sahuaros have qualified for four of the last five U.S. Open Cups, the best record of any amateur team during that span. This year’s participants also include the Sonoma County Sol of the National Premier Soccer League (an affiliate of the USASA), who qualified for the first round by virtue of winning a play-in match against PSA Los Gatos Storm, a club affiliated with U.S. Club Soccer (a member organization of U.S. Soccer).

Within the U.S. Open Cup framework, teams compete in one of the following four categories: professional outdoor Division I (Major League Soccer), Division II (USSF D-2 Pro League) or Division III (USL Second Division), or Amateur Division. In recent years, the Amateur Division has been comprised of the USL Premier Development League and regional qualifiers from the U.S. Adult Soccer Association.

The Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, which is recognized as U.S. Soccer’s National Championship, is an annual competition open to all amateur and professional soccer teams affiliated with U.S. Soccer. The tournament has crowned a champion for 95 consecutive years dating back to 1914.

The U.S. Open Cup is a single-elimination tournament, with games tied after regulation being decided in two 15-minute overtime halves. If the score is still tied after overtime, the winner is decided in a penalty kick shootout. The team that advances the furthest from each level except Division I will earn a $10,000 cash prize. The runner-up will take home $50,000, while the champion will collect $100,000. In addition, the winner will have its name engraved on the historic Dewar Challenge Trophy, the oldest trophy competed for nationally in American team sports.

What makes Ronaldinho one of the most successful soccer players in world today? Is it his skills with the soccer ball? His uncommon techiniques to impress the fans with the way he dribbles around the soccer field? The fact that he has appeared in many Nike commercials? His good looks? Or the fact that he has won many “World Player of the Year” awards?

The answer is: all of the above, and more. Ronaldinho, or as he is known in Brazil, Ronaldinho Gaucho, has been in the public eye since 1999, but it wasn't until around 2002, when this great Brazilian star “got his break”. Since then, the star of Ronaldinho Gaucho has only been getting bigger and bigger through the years.

Ronaldinho first became famous in Brazil under the name Ronaldinho (little Ronaldo) Gaucho (meaning he is from the Brazilian state Rio Grande do Sul), in order not to be confused with another Brazilian soccer star, Ronaldo (formally known as Ronaldinho in Brazil). However, when Ronaldo moved to Europe, he became well known only as Ronaldo, allowing Ronaldinho Gaucho to drop the “Gaucho” and be well known only as Ronaldinho.

In his adult life, Ronaldinho has been in three major soccer teams including Brazil's Gremio, France's Paris Saint-Germain, and Spain's always great Barcelona.

He is also one of a very few number of players to ever “play at every footballing level, for he has played at under 15, under 17, under 20, under 23, and senior level. He made his first ever appearance for Brazil playing against Scotland on 7 March1995 in an under 15s match, Brazil lost the game 1-0.” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronaldinho. He was also part of the first Brazilian team to ever win the under 17s championship, which took place in Egypt, 1997.

He then went on to become a part of the under 20s Brazilian team that played on the Fifa World Cup in 1999, and eventually made his first appearance in Brazil's national team that same year in the 1999 Copa America, in which Brazil won.

Since then, Ronaldinho has collected many awards such as “FIFA World Player of the Year” in 2004 and 2005, “World Soccer Player of the Year”, also in 2004 and 2005, “FIFPro World Player of the Year” in 2005 and 2006, “UEFA Clube Footballer of the Year” in 2005 and 2006, and many many others.

Ronaldinho's personality has also helped him become the star he is today. Even with top name awards under his belt, he still remains a very humble, down to earth guy. When asked about his status as the number one soccer player in the world, he simply said: “I don't even feel I'm the best at Barça.” (Barcelona), FourFourTwo magazine.

So there we go, Ronaldinho has clearly made his mark in the world of soccer, and continues to be a great star representing Brazil in a world wide level. What does the future have in store for Ronaldinho? His contract with Barcelona ends in 2010, other than that, all we have to do is simply just keep watching, as this boy from Rio Grande do Sul keeps re-writing soccer history.

Fussball WM 2010: Ballack, Vuvuzela und Flachbildschirm

Sport

RatGeberZentrale mit Schwerpunktthema Fussball WM 2010

Ab dem 11. Juni werden zur Fussball WM 2010 Millionen Zuschauer die deutsche Nationalmannschaft feiern. Ob in Südafrika, beim Public Viewing oder am heimischen Bildschirm. Die RatGeberZentrale http://www.ratgeberzentrale.de/fussball-wm-2010.html informiert im Vorfeld der WM: Hat unsere Mannschaft ohne Michael Ballack eine Chance? Was ist eigentlich eine Vuvuzela? Welche nützlichen WM-Apps gibt es für das iPhone und iPad? Wer zahlt, wenn der teure Flachbildschirm zu Bruch geht? Diese und andere Fragen werden in dem Schwerpunktthema aufgegriffen.

Das Krachmacherinstrument der Fussball WM 2010 schlechthin ist die Vuvuzela. Im Vorfeld der WM beschäftigte diese bereits intensiv die Gemüter: Entbrannt war die Diskussion nach dem Konföderationen-Cup 2009 in Südafrika, als die Blasinstrumente in den Stadien in großer Zahl zum Einsatz kamen. Sowohl Zuschauer vor Ort als auch übertragende TV-Sender beschwerten sich über den monotonen, andauernden Lärm. Die Diskussion beschäftigte viele Instanzen bis zum Weltfußballverband FIFA. Präsident Sepp Blatter sprach sich schließlich gegen ein Stadion-Verbot für die Vuvuzela aussprach.
Das iPhone ist für viele zum ständigen Begleiter geworden. Rund 300.000 Applikationen (”Apps”) zählt der iTunes Store. Auch beim Thema Fussball WM 2010 wird man hier fündig. Die RatGeberZentrale hat die besten unter ihnen zusammengestellt.
Weil nicht alle Fußball-Fans live in Südafrika dabei sein können, wird auch bei der diesjährigen WM wieder Public Viewing und das Verfolgen der Spiele am heimischen Bildschirm angesagt sein. Ein Gerät mit neuester Technologie kann schon mal rund 2.000 Euro kosten. Wenn dann so ein teurer Fernseher im Freudentaumel versehentlich zu Bruch geht, ist die Stimmung am Boden. Einen solchen Schaden übernimmt, falls nicht der Besitzer des Gerätes selbst dafür verantwortlich ist, die private Haftpflichtversicherung des Verursachers. “Eine private Haftpflicht benötigt jeder Haushalt. Denn nach dem Bürgerlichen Gesetzbuch kann jeder für Schäden, die er verursacht, in unbegrenzter Höhe haftbar gemacht werden. Und diese Last kann in die Millionen gehen und lässt sich allein nicht schultern”, sagt Markus Kasper von den Ergo Direkt Versicherungen http://www.ergodirekt.de.

Die RatGeberZentrale bietet Rat im Internet mit viel persönlichen Service komplett kostenlos. In der RatGeberZentrale werden Texte, Checklisten, Podcasts und Videos veröffentlicht, die nur nützliche Informationen enthalten. Ein Team aus Fachjournalisten überprüft Tag für Tag laufende Suchanfragen, sichtet Tausende von Meldungen und Artikeln, und stellt nur die ins Redaktionssystem, die Antworten auf häufig gestellte Fragen liefern.

After nearly a year of FIFA 09, I'm about ready for a new FIFA game to play. The past two or so months have been filled with anticipation for FIFA 10. EA Games provided us with video trailers, and pictures, just basic introductions to the game to get us excited. More recently, EA released the FIFA 10 demo, available in Europe before us North Americans could get our hands on it. Just like the demo, the game was to be released in Europe beforehand, and it's actually been out there for awhile. We've heard good things about it from Europeans and game reviewers, but North Americans really only have the demo to experience it for ourselves, for now. The demo has been great, it seems like everything that was wrong with FIFA 09 has been fixed, but we wont really know until the game is released on October 20, 2009. For now, we can only speculate as to what the game will be like, and thats what I aim to do in this preview.

The first thing I'm going to focus on- Where can you buy your copy of FIFA 10? Let's be honest here, a soccer game is going to have quite a hard time selling out in North American stores. I know that GameStop is offering a FIFA 10 preorder deal where you receive a year-long subscription to The Soccer Magazine when you preorder the game. But in all fairness, you're not going to really need to preorder the game in North America. Europe saw the game sell out quickly because of its higher popularity there, but it's different here. In terms of what stores will cary the game, GameStop, Best Buy, Wall-Mart, and others, are all likely to have it. Most stores that usually carry video games will probably have it on the release date, but I'd recommend you call in just to make sure.

EA Games, the makers of FIFA 10, have told us that FIFA 10 is jam-packed with loads of new features that will make FIFA 10 “the greatest soccer game ever made”. The first new feature that really got me interested was the Virtual Pro Mode. FIFA 09 featured the “Be a Pro” mode where you create a character and play games with him. The more games you play, the better your pro will get. FIFA 10 builds on this by allowing you to play with your created player in numerous new game modes, including online with other online gamers, and build a team filled with created players.

Another feature of FIFA 10 is GameFace. GameFace is a program that you can install on your computer. You upload a picture of your face and it makes a virtual player that looks just like you! From there, you can download the face on to your game system, where you can play Virtual Pro with your created face on your player! Virtual Pro and GameFace are the two features that make me most excited for the FIFA 10 release.

FIFA 09 had a lot of problems with dribbling. Many gamers felt that they did not have enough control over the player when dribbling. The new 360 degree dribbling feature allows for precise control over players when dribbling and lets you dribble around defenders in ways not before possible with FIFA 09. Overall, 360 dribbling allows for a more authentic dribbling experience and makes it less of a passing game all the time.

Like any other game series, the graphics are always supposed to improve with every new game. One thing that I believe EA Games has been great about is substantially improving the graphics with every new release of a FIFA game. I recommend that you go take a look at some of the screenshots that EA Games have provided us with so far on the FIFA 10 website. FIFA 09 had some problems with graphics on the faces of players, but that doesn't seem to be an issue anymore. With FIFA 10, everything just looks very real.

That's my preview of FIFA 10, for all of you North Americans out there like myself. I'm sure that Fifa 10 will be a big improvement from Fifa 09, which was already an excellent game. Until October 20, we're just going to have to make do with the demo which has already set high expectations for the full game.

There is a reason why soccer is not called ‘football’ in America…soccer sucks. American football is far better and far superior than the world’s so-called most popular sport, which for some reason is also called ‘football.’ If this is confusing don’t worry about, Americans already have it figured out. 

American sports fans decided to call this ridiculous sport ‘soccer’ a long time ago, and gave the term 'football' to a far better, more appealing sport.

I am not writing this to offend anyone, or to attract more readers. The fact is that soccer is boring and it simply makes no sense. The goal is bigger than a two-car garage, but yet nothing happens for 86 minutes! Guys are running (and walking) all over this massive field, yet nothing ever happens.

Most Americans view soccer as just a big game of keep away. Why the rest of the world continues to play this sport is beyond comprehension. I will always fail to understand what makes soccer so great and so fun to watch. Soccer fans shout at me ‘you just don’t understand.’ I agree.

• I don’t understand how a sport can have an ‘offsides’ penalty when that is the only way a teams can have an offensive advantage.
• I don’t understand why professional athletes can’t put a round ball in a goal the size of Rhode Island.

• I don’t understand how anyone can get excited about one goal being scored during 86 minutes of play.
  I don’t understand why soccer players are so fragile. One minute they are being hauled off on a stretcher and ten minutes later the same guy is scoring a break-away goal!

• I don’t understand how 100,000 fans can start a fire and riot after a 1-0 contest. Maybe they looked elsewhere to cure their boredom.

• I don’t understand why David Beckham has to look like a girl.

• I don’t understand how European soccer fans in the year 2006 can yell racial slurs to black athletes. It is also horrible to see FIFA not do a damn thing about it.

Ask me why I love American football, baseball, basketball or even hockey and I could go on and on about how each position in each sport requires a combination of athleticism, violence, speed and skill and each has the ability change the momentum of the contest or determine the outcome of the game.

Also, professional sports in America are paced well and have a nice flow with breaks in the action that allow the game to be analyzed by fans and broadcasters.

Soccer has none of this.

Die-hard soccer fans argue that soccer is the ‘world’s greatest game’ or that in every other country but America it is the most popular sport. Just because everyone else is doing something, don’t make it right. Heck, the Chinese are still using chop-sticks!

Other countries don’t have any other choice. Other than rugby and cricket, what else is there for professional sports outside the United States?

Badminton? Handball? Curling?

America pretty much leads the world in entertainment and when America says something is boring then we are probably on to something. Baywatch reruns can be found in almost every household around the world. We know how to entertain and we know sports.

If you’re into soccer, kick yourself silly. Just don’t expect us to join you kicking and screaming with joy.

Sorry soccer fans, your ‘football’ sucks.

“Club Deportivo Victoria fall 3-0 to Deportivo Marquense” or something along those lines was certainly one of the top stories across Central America three days ago as the final brackets for the 2007 CONCACAF Champion's Cup takes shape. Marquense, a Guatemalan club, trounced the Honduran side, Victoria, to secure the final position for Central American contenders.

The other two Central American representatives took to the pitch on Wednesday to decide who would take the lead for the Central Americans in qualification. Puntarenas F.C. hosted C.D. Olimpia in Costa Rica and just snuck by the Hondurans 3-2 with a goal from Alvaro Guerrero in the final minute of play. This match helped determine the hierarchy for the draw which will place teams in the final brackets for the CONCACAF Club Championship.

Currently, the “pots” look something like this. “Pot A” for Mexico and the United States has only three of the four teams decided as the Liga Mexicana has not finished its Apetura for 2006. CF Pachuca was the first Mexican side to qualify for the regional tournament after winning the Clausura earlier this year. 

Major League Soccer will send D.C. United, who finished the regular season with the best record in league, and the Houston Dynamo, who won the MLS Cup.  D.C. United is one of two American teams to have won the regional tournament, but the last time United won was in 1998. 

Last year, both American sides were knocked out of the tournament in the opening round, but this year promises to be different. The traditional powers from Central America struggled to earn berths into the tournament. Niether Saprissa nor Alajuelense from Costa Rica nor Municipal of Guatemala earned spots in the big show. Also, of the traditional Mexican favorites only one can earn a spot in the upcoming championship. With Pachuca eating up one of Liga Mexicana's berths, it will be impossible for Club America and Pumas to make an appearance. 

Also of note, with only one week of play left in the regular season, Cruz Azul holds the top spot in Liga Mexicana. Cruz Azul has had successful runs in the CONCACAF Club Championship in both 1996 and 1997 but is often not consider one of the region's dominant powers. 

“Pot B” is also waiting for its fourth and final team. The first three teams to qualify for this group were the Central American teams, Puntarenas (CRC), Olimpia (HON), and Marquense (GUA). The fourth position will go to the winner of the Caribbean tournament. This fifteen team tournament is often won by a team from Jamaica or Trinidad and Tobago, but with Portmore United (JAM) and Defense Force (TNT) out of contention, this final spot could go to almost anyone.

The champions for Trinidad and Jamaica are still held as the favorites, so teams will be weary of W Connection and Waterhouse F.C., but other teams should feel confident to leave their mark on this year's tournament. The Puerto Rico Islanders of the United Soccer Leagues will certainly have a fair shot if they can manage to get past W Connection of Trinidad and Tobago. Unfortunately for the Islanders, their top striker Alen Marcina, who scored 13 goals this summer, recently signed with the Knights in the Australian League.

In the end, the Cental American and Caribbean teams will likely be weaker than usual. This gives the edge to the teams from Mexico and the United States. Olimpia from Honduras is likely the best team from “Pot B”. Olimpia boasts a roster which features four members of the Honduran National Team: Figueroa, Valladares, Palacios, and Morales. Although Puntarenas gave a good showing against Olimpia earlier this week, Kurt Bernard will not be able to carry the team through the regional tournament. The same can also be said of Carlos Quinonez, who plays in back for Marquense and the Guatemalan National Team. 

As for the other section, both D.C. United and Pachuca will likely struggle. D.C. finished the MLS season poorly. A lack of communication between Facundo Erpen and Bobby Boswell seemed to cause lots of confusion in the back. The team dominated the first half of the MLS regular season but couldn't seem to buy a win after the All-Star break. Although United has been the most successful American team when facing foreign opposition, including a 4-0 win over Celtic this year, D.C. will need to find a new way to shine to have any success in the upcoming tournament.

Pachuca has more potential than D.C., but only because their Apetura campaign has been fairly successful. However, they do not face the toughest competition in their league. With America, Pumas, and Toluca in one group and with Chivas and Cruz Azul in another, Pachuca's table simply doesn't look as tough as the other two. What may actually hurt Pachuca in the tournament isn't their form, but the lack of a big name player to carry the burden can be devasting for a team in this kind of tournament. 

The current favorite to take the final Mexican slot in the regional tourament is Cruz Azul, whose roster includes two members of the Mexican National Team: Gerardo Torrado and Jose Rafael Garcia Torres. The experiences these players carry with them into these kinds of competitions always serves a team well. If Cruz Azul takes the final open slot, look for them to do very well. This team would have a very real chance of winning the CONCACAF Championship.

Of the team's that have already qualified, the Houton Dynamo look the best on paper. As the San Jose Earthquakes, this franchise made a number of appearances in the CONCACAF Championship but never managed to win the title. The team has won three MLS Cups since 2001 and has a very solid core group of players. Left wing Brad Davis and forward Brian Ching have spent a fair amount of time with the U.S. National Team, as has defensive midfielder Ricardo Clark. 

However, the real key to this team will be the play of their two stars from Canada. Dwayne De Rosario will have to marshal the troops from the “number ten” position for the team to mount a powerful attack. At the other end, Pat Onstad will likely be kept busy in the nets if the Central American teams are successful in using a direct style of play. 

The team has plenty of guns with Venezuelan Alejandro Moreno, Paul Dalglish the son of the famed Kenny Dalglish, Brian Ching, and Dwayne De Rosario playing on the attacking side of the ball. If their midfield and defense can hold off the typically strong Central American counterattacks, the Dynamo have a very real shot of being the first MLS team to take the regional cup since the 2000 L.A. Galaxy.  

The Dynamo proved that they have the ability to face impossible odds when Brian Ching equalised in the second overtime period only a minute after New England took a 1-0 lead during the MLS Cup. If the team can muster that kind of confidence during this tournament, even a team like Cruz Azul will struggle against the current American champions come the end of February.

An increase in web bookings for accommodations and tickets for the World Cup in South Africa has spurred local online users to warn about an uptick in cybercrime in the region.

Africa is currently facing an increase in phishing attacks in which criminals try to extract bank account information in order to steal money from unsuspecting bank customers. Meanwhile, South Africa is hosting the World Cup from June to July this year, with millions of people already making online bookings for tickets and accommodations.

South Africa is Africa's second-largest telecom market in terms of investment and subscription while Nigeria, Africa's largest telecom market, is ranked number three in the world in terms of cybercrime. Cybercrime in the region has further increased following the landing last year of Seacom and Teams international cables, which are starting to lower bandwidth and Internet connectivity costs.

Africa is experiencing an explosion of mobile money services as banks and mobile providers compete with customers who would otherwise not have a bank account. This has increased phishing attacks on unsuspecting customers, in efforts to lure them to fake sites and get their bank details.

The problem has been heightened by the fact that very few African countries have a legal framework for cybercrime prevention, or the skills, equipment and organisational abilities to fight cybercrime. Zambia, for example, has a computer misuse law that calls for convicted hackers to be sentenced to jail for up to 25 years, but the country has no equipment and organisational infrastructure to fight cybercrime.

“The problem is that so many people are competing for tickets to the World Cup. In the process, many of them are getting swindled through phishing and fake online promotions for tickets to the event,” said Walter Tapfumanei, communication officer, Africa Agency for ICT Development.

Scammers are also using SMSes to impersonate big company officials and send messages to potential victims saying that they have won tickets to the FIFA 2010 World Cup. In other e-mail, the contact would claim to have been awarded a huge mining contract and would invite the “investor” to the country where they would meet with fake government officials.

Symantec Africa Regional Director Gordon Love said South Africa is experiencing an increase in spam and many other cybercriminal activities including government Web site defacements. As a result of increasing phishing and many other cybercrime activities in South Africa before the World Cup, Symantec has launched a special Web site where it will keep Internet users updated with related attacks and how to access and buy genuine World Cup tickets.

He came home that day with a big smile on his face, and the wrinkled soccer sign-up flyer in tow.  Little did I know what he was about to show me would change our daily routine for the next two months. 

“Mom, please!  I really want to play!''  He said so enthusiastically!  Who was I to say no to an 8 year old asking a question that way?

“You have never played any sports!  You do know that there is going to be lots of hard work ahead of you? There will be no quitting until the season is over.”  I replied cautiously.  However, all I got in return was a big head nod for a yes, and a half toothless smile that melted my heart.

So, that next Saturday morning found us with all the other children and parents at the U-8 soccer sign-up booth, paying fees and learning what team we would be cheering for.  My son's excitement about it all, I must admit, made me just as anxious to get the season started.  

Did the season get started so quickly, too?  Time sure did fly by!  There were major struggles at the very beginning, as one would expect with any child just entering a sports routine.  With practice only twice a week, and the first game only 2 weeks after the first team practice, there was little time for struggle.  We had to get through learning all the basics of soccer, and then a little bit of physical strength training (i.e. running).   There was that practice when the running was just a little too much and we had to leave early because of a belly ache!  There was also that practice where coach got a little frustrated with my son for not being able to “dribble” the ball just as well as he had in the last practice.  The “pressure” really became a lot for me as well as my son, and he really began to doubt this position he had so enthusiastically put himself into.  Quitting the team became a popular topic to discuss at the dinner table. 

However, gentle reminders of what he had wanted that day he brought me that flyer home helped to ease the urge for him to just quit it all.   There were several late nights of dad and son in the backyard working on “soccer skills” that helped him perform better in practice and in games.  There were cancelled appointments and plans to be able to fit all of the soccer requirements in our schedule.  This all came down to that one moment that made it all worth our while.  I was able to stand on the sideline and cheer my little boy on when he scored his first goal in a game that brought victory for the team.  The sacrifice had been so worthwhile, indeed.  When I ask him, “Son, are you ready for next season?”  I get a big head nod for a yes, and a half toothless smile that melts my heart.

So, when your child comes home asking asking “Please!”!  Don't pass judgment by replying with a sudden no.  Think about how it could just maybe be all worth your time!
