• Hit F5 or tick the autorefresher for the latest updates • Email paul.doyle@guardian.co.uk with your thoughts Preamble: Like chain-ganged criminals Manchester United have toiled hard on the road this season – except in the Champions League, where defensively they’ve been tighter than Sir Alex Ferguson’s lips in front of a BBC camera. The German unterhunds will sure seek to test their solidity tonight, as they’re a charming gung-ho bunch who retain enough naivete to engage opponents in naked attacking duels. As their name suggests, they play with null fear. And that’s what we all like to see, isn’t it? Ferguson has sprung no surprises with his line-up, the inclusion of Park ahead of Nani not being worth raising an eyebrow over given the manager’s lubency to use the Korean in big games. Fabio ahead of his brother Rafael is not especially unexpected either, given the former has been performing well in recent weeks. Darron Gibson does not even make the bench, giving him time, perhaps, to pursue his research into a device for filtering rabid idiots out of cyberspace. As for Schalke, everyone knows about the threat of canny Raul, and goalkeeper Manuel Neuer has earned a reputation as one of the world’s best and possibly also a summer move to Old Trafford. There has been much fanfare too about Jefferson Farfan and, of course, their Charles Dickens-reading coach, Ralf Rangnick, is said to be a lot like a man who has been hit over the head with a bag-full of tiny echolocating mammals – totally shrewd. Though perhaps we should not have such Great Expectations of him. Hard Times could be ahead for him and his team. In other news, this stadium, the Veltins Arena, was the site of one of the most famous fouls in English football history: yes, it is the place where, in the 2006 World Cup quater-final, Ricardo Carvahlo attacked Wayne Rooney’s hallowed foot with his testicles, suckering the ref into showing the wronged Englishman a red card. Teams: Schalke 04: Neuer; Uchida, Matip, Metzelder, Sarpei; Farfan, Papadopoulous*, Jurado*, Baumjohann; Raul*, Edu Subs: Schober, Escudero, Plestan, Kluge, Charisteas, Karimi, Draxler * = on booking United: Van der Sar; Fabio, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra; Valencia, Carrick, Giggs, Park; Rooney, Hernandez Subs: Kuszczak, Anderson, Smalling, Nani, Scholes, Rafael, Evans Ref: C Carballo (Spain) Champions League Schalke Manchester United Paul Doyle guardian.co.uk

April 26, 2011 No Comment
Click here to view this media As his Fox News show reaches the end of the road , Glenn Beck has been feuding with a couple of noteworthy figures on his own side of the political aisle — with his Fox colleague Mike Huckabee, labeled by Beck a “progressive” Republican (which in Outer GlennBeckistan is the equivalent of being called a cancerous Nazi) and with Andrew Breitbart, who is still pissed that Beck “threw him under the bus” over the Shirley Sherrod fiasco. On his Fox show yesterday, Beck tried to address these feuds by claiming that he really doesn’t have any serious differences with these two — they’re all on the same side, after all. Then he proceeded to quarrel further with Breitbart by going on ad nauseam about how important God really is to America — a sly way of holding Breitbart up as unworthy for the Religious Right folks out there in his audience, and also absurdly misleading: Theire differences really aren’t about religion. Beck has mostly parted ways with Breitbart over the fact that not only has Breitbart misled, distorted, and lied egregiously in his attacks on liberals, he made the egregious misjudgment of getting caught at it. And he continued his attacks on Huckabee, even while claiming to be dismissing their differences. Indeed, he continued to insist that Huckabee is a “progressive” — which for Beckheads means he is heading down the path to Nazism (indeed, he’s in the same category as neo-Nazis) and is a cancer on the American body politic. Beck has even tried to claim he didn’t say these things. But then again, it isn’t only conspiracy theories that can be easily disproven. So can outright lies.

A powerful tornado ripped through the St. Louis Airport Friday, cutting a 22-mile swath of destruction that tore through Concourse C. But miraculously, there were no deaths that resulted from the area’s most powerful tornado in 44 years, according to the AP. However, the storm destroyed over 100 homes and had residents still digging out on Easter Sunday. The video below gives some real insight into how intense the St. Louis tornado really was, as a security camera captures shocking footage of flying debris and people running for cover. It’s hard to imagine a storm of this magnitude producing no fatalities, which is why many locals are calling the aftermath of the St. Louis tornado a miracle. From the AP: Early warnings, good timing and common sense all helped prevent a tragedy Friday night. But on Easter Sunday, many of those cleaning up the mess also thanked a higher power. “I don’t know why God decided to spare our lives but I’m thankful for it,” Joni Bellinger, children’s minister at hard-hit Ferguson Christian Church, said Sunday. Everyone who survived is truly lucky, considering how easily the St. Louis tornado took out this terminal. The airport will apparently be “100 percent” by Tuesday. WATCH:

You won’t need to compromise much with Origin ‘s EON17-S gaming notebook, though a $3,000 dent in your wallet could severely compromise your purchasing power for the next few months. That’s the starting price for this gaming laptop, with a 2.5GHz Intel Core i7-2920XM Quad-Core processor factory overclocked to 4.5GHz, and maxing the system out with 32GB of RAM, dual 480GB SSD’s, and a 2GB NVidia GeForce GTX 485M GPU will send the price tag north of $10,000. Small price to pay for months of geek cred at your neighborhood LAN party, right? We’d rather use the money as a down payment on a Tesla Roadster , but if helping to rebuild the economy with the best, brightest and heaviest (at 8.6 pounds) computing monster sitting on your lap is just what you need, then look for yours in the mail come May 17th.

Last month, the Motorola Xoom was the only officially sanctioned Android 3.0 tablet available in the United States. Now there are four — the T-Mobile G-Slate arrived last week, the Acer Iconia Tab A500 this week, and the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer will soon hit US shores. All have the same basic silicon inside, but oh-so-slightly different approaches to shape, such that price might honestly be the deciding factor these days. That’s where we thought this WiFi-only Acer Iconia Tab had an edge, launching at $450 , but now that ASUS has shaken the money tree with a $400 figure for the Eee Pad Transformer, we doubt other price tags will stick. It could be the tiniest of differentiators that shifts your opinion in favor of a particular slate. What’s a prospective tablet buyer to do? Join us on a tour of the Acer Iconia Tab A500′s particular perks and quibbles after the break, and we’ll tell you.
