We'll play Wolfsburg in the final - you'll see.

We'll find out in a few minutes' time, right?

Funny! It's actually the other way around. The Ukrainian version is Kyiv; the Russian spelling is Kiev. At least, that's my understanding.

I've been there a couple of time on business, and I've always referred to it as Kyiv. That's the English equivalent of the Ukrainian spelling. Kiev is the anglicized version of the Russian spelling.

I'm looking forward to this game. We've been dominant in the Europa all season, and I see no reason why this shouldn't continue.

You got your wish!

Everton 2-1 Newcastle Lukaku

Spent two days in Britain this weekend (leave from Heathrow this morning), and it was like I never left: As in the 70s and 80s, all I read in the paper was about pitch invasions and fans throwing things. Well done Villa!

Not sure why one day under 18 is unacceptable and one day over is perfectly fine. Is there something particularly moral about an 18th birthday? Legally maybe, but otherwise? He took advantage. He's supposed to be a role model- or at least that's how we used to view top players. He just lost any respect he may have had before.

Attending Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

I thought he was excellent after coming on in midweek.

Since I'm flying to Europe tomorrow and will be away for 8 days, I should make my prediction now for the Stoke game - just in case I can't gain access to the Internet. Apologies in advance if I'm unable to update the leader boards for a week or so. Stoke 0-0 Everton

They're not going to win the FA Cup, and I doubt they'll make the top four. It'll be the Europa for them next year, at best.

Because you were planning to eat at that dodgy Chinese place again?

Two others deserve mention: Jagielka and Alcaraz. Both seemed very solid, confident, and assured.

Sorry. Showing my age, that's all. I remember the constant encouragement to our Austin 30 to make it up the hill: "Come on, girl. You can do it!"

It's true, though, isn't it? How long do you wait for a player to have an extended run of good health - to make up for the losses incurred when he was out for repair? At some point, you have to make a decision. I'd rather have a Toyota that works than a Lotus that's always in the shop for repair.

I think I remembered wrongly. State income tax was zero, not sales tax (which is 6 percent). Your question remains valid, though. http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2013/04/05/the-7-states-with-no-income-tax.aspx New Hampshire has neither income tax nor state tax. http://commonwealthmagazine.org/politics/the-download-how-does-new-hampshire-do-it/ Getting back on track, Tim Howard is from New Jersey, so his save percentage should be 7%.

Depends on the county. Here it's 6 percent. When we lived in Florida, it was a big fat zero.

10% tax rate?

I like to buy cars that are a year or two old and keep them forever - 200K miles at least. But, with some models, they break down much sooner than others. I spend a fortune on repairing that used car thinking I'll get a good long run out of it, then it break down again. Am I throwing good money after bad, or am I investing in the future?. You eventually get to the point where you realize all that money is a sunk cost, and you may never get it back. Despite everyone's best efforts, it just didn't work out - and it's better to sell it and buy something different. For me, it's the same with Gibson.What do you do when a talented player has such a poor injury record? While everyone wants Gibson to succeed, how likely is it that he'll have a long run without another injury? It's a tough decision to make.

At this rate, Everton could soon be the only English team left in European competition.

...which is pretty much what I'm expecting. No need to take any risks until the game is well and truly wrapped up.

Guilty as charged. I assumed it was a 3-game ban.
