AC Milan Vs M.United

Tomorrow is 'the day' for either team, as AC Milan and Manchester United meet in the race for the Champions League title. Will Manchester repeat their win at Old Trafford or will AC Milan bounce back. This time around, AC Milan will play host to Manchester United in their return leg of the Champions League at San Siro.

Currently Ac Milan is enjoying their best run of form this season, beating Torino 1-0 last Saturday, placing them 3rd in the Serie A. Manchester United on the other hand is loaded with a huge boost of confidence over their weekend 4-2 win at Everton.

The match is likely to see the return of the 33 year old Filippo Inzaghi to the starting line-up. He practically missed the first leg due to injury. AC Milan is hoping to repeat their winning stake as they did with their quarter final victory against Bayern Munich. They hope that by Inzaghi returning, it will be a moral booster to strengthen the entire teams confidence. Gattuso who limped off during their 1st leg tie at Old Trafford, might also be in the starting line-up. A big question mark also lies on their captain, Paolo Maldini, who is still with an injury. With the Brazilian-Ronaldo cup tied at this moment and Ricardo Olivera not in his best of form, the burden will eventually rest on Kaka to produce.

Hopefully the patched-up defence that Manchester United has so far will prove to be the opening for 'the man' United should watch out for, the Brazilian Kaka, as he proved at Old Trafford.

On the United front, they are set to welcome back England's central defender Rio Ferdinand.They hope to make it an all English affair by just a draw or even better a win. Running for every ball will definitely be on their minds, even when they are down. United is so good at last minute goals i tell you. They are also good when it comes to counter attacks, with Ronaldo, Rooney and Giggs having so much of pace in them. Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney currently in the spotlight for being world class talents, may turn out to be 'thorns' for the opposition. But having being eliminated by AC Milan before, this time around they would need to set the record straight.

Indeed this would turn out to be a very interesting match to watch, i would say.

Probable Line-Up :

• AC Milan: 1-Dida; 44-Massimo Oddo, 13-Alessandro Nesta, 3-Paolo Maldini, 18-Marek Jankulovski; 8-Gennaro Gattuso, 21-Andrea Pirlo, 23-Massimo Ambrosini; 10-Clarence Seedorf; 22-Kaka, 9-Filippo Inzaghi.
  

• Manchester United: 1-Edwin van der Sar; 22-John O'Shea, 6-Wes Brown, 4-Gabriel Heinze, 5-Rio Ferdinand; 24-Darren Fletcher, 16-Michael Carrick, 18-Paul Scholes; 7-Cristiano Ronaldo, 8-Wayne Rooney, 11-Ryan Giggs.

• Referee: Frank De Bleeckere (Belgium).

Choosing The Right Paving Material

You have the perfect material in mind for paving your garden path or driveway - at least in terms of aesthetics. When choosing paving material for home improvement projects, however, keep practical considerations in mind. Make sure your material meets your need - and your abilities to deal with them. I have tried over and over again this same theory, it never fails. These are some of the things I've shortlisted for you to go through before you undertake the project.

• Consider the activities you have in mind for the paved area. Avoid loose paving units or gravel if you'll need to walk much or move furniture across the paved surface.

• Notice how the area where you plan to install your surface drains. Paving stones or bricks that are set on soil may sink if the area doesn't drain quickly and becomes muddy.

• Determine if you'll need access to pipes or anything else beneath the surface for repair or maintenance. If so, choose materials such as brick, stone, tile or pressed concrete units, which can be removed and replaced without looking patched.

• Be honest with yourself about the kind of installation that you can handle - either as a do it yourself project or as a contract. Beautifully installed asphalt blocks look much better than poorly installed marble tiles.

• Choose a material that has relationship to the other materials that will be near it. Paving that appears to be natural of the building nearby creates a sense of harmony.
  

Hopefully all this would be helpfull in order for you to create that perfect pathway you've always dreamt of. Happy trying.....

Britney On The Comeback

Every other day i hear someone gossiping about another person. What is actually the definition to that word? My closest conclusion could be that it normally consists of casual or idle talk of some sort, sometimes slanderous (but definitely not always) discussions of others. While gossiping could attribute to the oldest form of spreading and also sharing news and views, it also adds some spice into the story as well.

One Celebrity that people like to talk (or in other words, gossip) about these days, would be Britney Spears. Imagine her putting the blame on her mom, Lynne, for all the problems that she's been having recently. How much more of this, do we have to take from Ms Britney?

The rehabbed (how many times???) pop diva is also supposedly planning to come out on the open and dish out some serious dirt in an upcoming tell-all. Sources say that she will delve in topics with relation to Kevin Federline, and how life with him, nearly drove her to suicide. (poor girl) Her main belief is that he pretended to love her for the sake of money and a music career.

Publishers are lining up to get the rights for this 'one-on-one' with her, and how much will she make out of this..... a whopping $10million (assuming this story from the source is real)

On the good side, The 'Oops' singer has been keeping herself quite busy recently, plotting her musical comeback. She's been reported to be logging long hours at the studio as well as time at the dance studios.

From all of us here, we wish her good luck, and hope that this time around, she will get it right.
