Chuolo, good luck on finals.<br />Raph, crossing my fingers and wishing you luck.<br />Tom, my month has been chaos, so I understand! Told my classes last week I am moving. They are Year 7 (6th grade)and were very sad! <br /><br />Time to get back to the packing and sorting.

Can u gift me a Mac book pro?? Maybe if I won one in a raffle! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Wow, y'all are quiet... What's up?<br /><br /><br />Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Not quite purchased but made an offer on a house and it was accepted! we move in mid-March after closing!

OMG I can understand how he is ,, and how you feel .. My wife worries every morning when I need to clear out my lungs .Years of smoking takes its toll .. Too late for some of us ,, tho im 2 years smoke free ,, A warning to others , My thoughts with you and your family Kerry ... Thanks, Ron. At least you quit! That was something my dad has never been able to do. I am proud of you for quitting! ((hugs)) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Thanks everyone. My sister said dad was grumpy and doing better when she saw him which is good news. However he is still not out of danger until the pneumonia is gone. <br /><br /><br />Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Hey if you could keep my dad in your thoughts and prayers, I would be grateful. He is in hospital with a collapsed lung and pneumonia. He has emphysema and COPD which is the underlying cause. <br />I am very worried and just beside myself that I cannot get there.

It does make a notable difference this "Real ball physics" especially with this "Pure Shot". Shooting has completely changed, the ball will swerve and dip and it just makes for a more realistic experience. Aside from the shooting though, I havent noticed much difference with ball movements. Thanks! I was wondering. The Magnus affect would have the biggest impact when the ball is airborne as it is caused by the spin and air resistance. So it makes sense that it is the shooting that is when you see it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I played a match while trying to pay attention to that and the physics behind it doesn't seem, at least to me, too different from the previous versions overall, but when you switch to manual passing and shooting you do get the feeling that ball moves very 'realistically'. But I don't think it's very practical to play the game that way. The manual mode must be the portion of the game they worked on. The article was in Scientific American and discussed how in previous versions the ball would travel at impossible angles/speeds. Apparently they had not calculated in the Magnus effect and the 14 version does hence the ball curves more realistically then in previous versions. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I was a little pork chop You were healthy! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

I grew up in the 80's and 70's so one hit wonders were the name of the game! Soft cell: tainted love! It is a one hit wonder but will never die! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

So, I was reading an article on the physics of FIFA 14 and was wondering if any of y'all have it and noticed a difference in the way the ball moves? <br /><br /><br />Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

This is what I imagine you looked like when you were little! Absolutely adorable! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

That is so great that you were able to meet up! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

My parents plan on doing the same. One would think they have got used to just living here... You can get used to living some where but it still is not home. plus my dad's health is not the best, it is hard knowing if something happens I probably could not get home in time. It has been fun but I am ready to get back to reality! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

That's great! Congrats. You sound very happy about it Thanks! We are, but we will miss Shanghai! It has been an interesting few years, but it is time to be closer to family. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Oh, you're leaving China in a few months, Kerry? Are you going back to the states? YES!!!! I am headed back to Memphis! My husband has been promoted and that means he needs to go back to corporate. We will stay until Nathan goes to Tanzania on his Global Classroom trip and MacKenzie has competed in the tournament in Bangkok and finished the school play. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Aha! The Memphis Belle is back in town then Yes, sir! Most people think the Blues in blueschick is for the Memphis Blues music Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Yeah, but the problem here is that it is the only way. You won't pass if you don't bribe the guy. It's a sad reality. Here you either have to read Chinese or decipher the Chinglish on the English version! They have traffic rules and lanes that I have never seen else where. I will leave the driving to Bao for the few Months we have left. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

No, i have trouble remembering who's who when y'all change names Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Air New Zealand has the best pre-flight video based on Middle Earth it has all the safety info but is humorous as well. But their air sickness bag made me laugh: <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

Taking a typical "Facebook" picture Screaming "MY BUBBLE" as she tries to hug me! It is obvious you have a great relationship! Here are my kids showing there sibling love (?) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Happy New Year! Just back to Shanghai from New Zealand (missed a chance to meet up with Kezza!), but wanted to pop in a say hi. I will continue to be on only minimally as there is quite a bit going on at home at the moment. I hope 2014 brings you marvelous adventures and wonderful surprises! <br /><br />Thanks to all the TC staffers for all they do! Love ya! <br /><br /><br /><br />Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
