My daughter, 13, got pregnant by swimming in hotel pool, claims mother

By Mail Foreign Service  [An unfortunate choice of words ]

A mother is suing a hotel claiming her teenage daughter fell pregnant simply from using a hotel swimming pool.

Magdalena Kwiatkowska says the 13-year-old conceived after coming into contact with 'stray sperm' in the water of an Egyptian resort.

She is demanding compensation.

'The mother is adamant that her daughter didn't meet any boys while she was there,' a travel industry source said.

'She is determined to go ahead with the case.'

The Polish tourist board has confirmed they have received a complaint from Mrs Kwiatkowska.

Though both Jamaica and El Salvador finished with identical records, El Salvador was eliminated having lost to Jamaica.The Reggae Boyz will now have to wait for the results the results of the final Group B and C matches tomorrow and Saturday to determine whether they advance.

Jamaica's faith is in the hands of Haiti and Panama. Jamaica will advance if any one of the two below scenarios play out:

1) Panama fail to beat Nicaragua

OR

2) USA beat haiti by two 3 clear goals

The most likely of the two scenarios would be a USA 3-0 win over the USA.

Yuh could tell RF was in a hurry to spread the gospel of survival that he type all kinda madness.

I not so sure....Andrew Cole improved as a player immensely after moving from Newcastle to Man Utd and he was around 25. So did Ian Wright, Dion Dublin...ex-armyman Guy Wittingham..... to name a few, all improved significantly as players after their 25 birthday. Not that I'm saying he will, but it's not wishful thinking....is just depends on how determined Jones is to improve himself as a player.

Those kinds of things come down to better tactical awareness and off-the-ball running, which can certainly be improved.

But generally once a player is in his mid 20s any kind of increase in his skills is going to be marginal.

all increases are marginal, particularly if one discounts for cumulation ... further, when is peak age?

Question:

Elvis  within seconds .

Nah prolly Elvis would still be rolling in his grave OR drop down dead when he found out MJ is/was his son-in-law ... and owned rights to his shit ... there would only be ONE concert that night

P.S.

If yuh really want to make it interesting, toss in a Jerry Garcia and a Bob Marley concert crosstown.

hard to say because T&T and Jamaica don't play similar games

Although both teams don't adopt a common approach, the approach of both teams under Latas and Tappa has shown some positive tangibles that are useful enough for comparison ... We don't need a a common approach to identify that both squads have some deficiencies in common ... for instance, we could spend a LOT of time talking about set-plays and corner kicks ...

Also, ah feel yuh could geh some info from Campbell-Ryce that could easily apply to Carlos ...

Similarly, playing through Gardner offers lessons fuh us in a role we don't have a player who has stamped his authority on.

Then, on a tactical level, some of the dying minute decision-making just seem stereotypically West Indian ... it's what we selling so dahis how it's being branded.

jamaica almost get poison like us yes with the last minute freekick...either way they out i believe..el salvador have a better goal difference to clinch third... hope we were taking notes...

Jamaica could have resolved the goal difference situation in the final 5-10 minutes.

I know..they had a 4 on 3 where they should have scored...but i hope there win shows us that we can beat el salvador..especially at home..hell we shoulda beat them away...

Let's get a lil more analytical ... although not exhaustive

Jamaican deficiencies in this game: poor rendition on ALL dead-ball situations bar possibly one; failure to take advantage of the height disparity presented; a lack of coordination on the final ball

Strengths: competent addressing of the aerial ball defensively; not bad in transition; got width through Demar Phillips and Campbell-Ryce (but didn't capitalize on it); the level of organization showed promise buh yuh hadda say still very reliant on individuality; good defensive posture

Take from the above and what you saw of the game and figure out why we can't extrapolate too much for a TRI v ELS match-up. For one thing, I think when they adjusted their rhythm (injection of William Reyes) they reminded that they know how to counter-attack ... looks like Tappa was mindful of that right through.

Combined with the restrained physicality JA showed (relative to some past ignorance), place a Trini squad in that game and I eh too sure we would be completely happy campers.

Not bad. Physically on top of the action etc, but he made an error on the play leading up to the free-kick that was a potential equalizer.

Would be interesting to have his perspective on the Gold Cup.

Costa Rica vs Canada
El Salvador vs Jamaica

ah just see highlights of Mexico coach kicking out he foot (and hitting) some Panamanian name Phillip(s), high comedy, dey say de both ah dem get ejected, me eh understand why de player get rejected though.

What you're proposing (stemming from the same incident) is that the player should have received a yellow while the manager got ejected ... that wasn't going to fly.

Mexico and their fans real disgusting boy! they should ban dem from all international competitions until they learn tuh behave.

that coach he self is ah real low life, ah wish fifa ban he for the next 10 concacaf international games.

Panamanians, Costa Ricans and Nicaraguans take a lot of abuse at the hands of the more numerous Honduran, Salvadoran and Mexican immigrant communities. Guatemalans too to a degree. The unruly behaviour is too easily indulged because of the numbers ... they are demonstrating their comfort level ... and this is one reason why I opposed calls right here on this forum for us to play Honduras in the US.

That scene with Phillips in any one of those countries would have been resolved with a few riot shields, and would have been over in less time.

As far as Aguirre, he'll geh pong in the Mexican media ... clearly he was wrong. Had Phillips not had super-sub fever he would have played that differently and the spotlight rightly would have focused on Aguirre.

Anyway, Aguirre's day of reckoning awaits because he has not resolved the team's problems.

Al Sharpton is proving to be an effective spokesperson for MJ.

started watchin when Jennifer came up and
Yeah Big Al hit it for SIX for me
Martin lll was also bang on

I did not see the rest after Brooke

catching up now

I wasn't available for the TV broadcast, but I heard audio of Sharpton being interviewed following the memorial and he was more insightful and incisive than ever before ... perhaps departing into hyperbole and self-inflation only once during the proceeding.

Nonetheless, listening to him, I realized history is likely to be kinder to Sharpton than is public perception, and if nothing else, that's one lesson to be absorbed from Michael Jackson's passing.
