Peyton Manning has won four most valuable player awards in his career. Based on how far the Indianapolis Colts have fallen without him, he probably should have at least four more.
There has been a long-standing argument over whether Manning or Tom Brady is the most valuable player in the NFL. In the regular season, the numbers, including the clutch numbers, support Manning as the better quarterback.
Of course, once you get past the regular season, Brady is the man. Right? Brady does have the hardware and the Super Bowls. But is has also been four years since the Patriots have even won a playoff game.
But maybe the best measure of a player's value, is just how far his team falls when he is gone. Without Brady, the Patriots would certainly take a step back. But would they instantly become one of the worst teams in the NFL? That is what has happened to the Colts.
Here is how far the Colts offense has fallen from a year ago (NFL ranks in parentheses)...

But the most important stat is Wins. The Colts are already 0-3 and there is little hope that things will get better. In the last 12 seasons, the Colts have lost four games or fewer eight times. And the Colts have won fewer than 10 games just twice in the Manning era.
Four more MVPs? Maybe they should just give the award to Manning every year. This year included.

Is it possible for a couple to straighten out their money, even when one of them is 7,000 miles away in a war zone? If the course is Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University (FPU), the answer is "yes!"
LTC John Shaw, a U.S. Army Reservist and his wife, Melissa, are two proud FPU graduates. John attended the course in Kandahar, Afghanistan, sponsored by the U.S. Army, while Melissa attended at their home church in Ohio. They read Financial Peace Revisited and The Total Money Makeover and used Dave's program to pay off debts of $212,816 in four years!
John says, "I have been mobilized three times since 2005. Melissa and I have four children, so we have a busy family life and limited opportunities to be together for the 13-week class. When this class came along, we knew it was the right time to attend. FPU lays out step by step those concepts taught in Dave's books." John was deployed by the Army Reserves twice once they started paying off debt.
To celebrate this huge milestone of paying off more than $210,000, the whole family traveled from Ohio to Financial Peace Plaza to do their Debt-Free Friday scream!
Melissa and the kids waited to scream with John in the lobby while Dave asked some questions about their amazing journey:
What kind of debt was this?
John: We both have law degrees, so student loans were about $150,000. The remainder was a couple of vehicles, and we had taken a second mortgage on our home right after we purchased it. We started the journey with an income of about $90,000 in 2005, and now we?re north of that to about $110,000.
Four years is a long trek! How did you hang on that long?
John: Being deployed made it difficult, so we really had to be consistent in communication with each other and set the right expectations for the kids.
How do you feel now that the debt is gone?
John: It?s just such a huge relief off of my mind after having to manage payments, especially when I was overseas. When I was talking to my wife, wanting to ask how she and the kids were, we had to talk about payments and what goes out when to avoid late fees. I wanted to stop those silly conversations.
Wow! The whole gang screamed in freedom at the top of their lungs to celebrate dumping $212,000! Listen to their call.
Melissa says, "FPU has been a blessing to our family and our relationship. It has helped us to clarify goals for our family, improve communication about our money, and given us an opportunity to grow together, instead of apart, during this latest deployment. We're on the same 'financial page' now, using the same vocabulary, and moving in the same direction. As a couple, we've gained a 'united FPU mindset,' and we're determined to pass it along to our kids."
If this family can buckle down and pay off more than $210,000 with two deployments in the mix, you can become debt-free too! What?s been holding you back? If you?re on the journey now, hang in there! As the Shaws would tell you, the sacrifices you?re making are worth it?not just for you but for future generations!

The Hong Kong monetary market hit its 4 billion yuan quarterly trading limit-- set by the People's Bank of China-- a week before the quarter ended.
But it wasn't because of a surge in demand for the currency. Rather, markets were selling the currency back to the Bank of China.
Many who had initially bet on an appreciating offshore yuan (CNH) fled to the U.S. dollar as a safe haven after the Fed Reserve warned of a gloomy economy, and following a sell-off in Asian currencies. This isn't expected to impact the offshore market in the long-term, which looks to be diversifying to London.
Typically the CNH trades at a premium to the onshore yuan (CNY) because it is freely convertible in Hong Kong. But the selling became evident before the offshore rate started trading below the onshore rate according to SocGen analysts Wei Yao and Joseph Lau:
"The spread between the two has been moving with the pace of the appreciation in the onshore rate, and so it essentially reflects the appreciation expectation. The stark divergence on Friday obviously exceeded what can be explained by the onshore movement.
...If the market continues to sell CNH, we would expect that the authorities’ (via its agent banks) may intervene to bring it back. For now, though, we expect what happens in Hong Kong is not being reflected on CNY so the authorities won’t need be very active…"
The spread between the offshore and onshore yuan is not expected to widen too much or last very long, according to the analysts. But, if the reversal of the offshore yuan is because of an outflow of funds, it could have an impact on the Hong Kong dollar and the local financial system by way of a move away from the low interest rate environment.
Here is a chart that shows the sharp divergence between the offshore and onshore yuan:

The NFL got weird yesterday, with the Patriots, Eagles, and Jets all losing to big underdogs.
Here's what you need to know.
The Bills are for real. Yes, Buffalo was at home. They were outplayed by New England for huge stretches of the game. And they were aided by some uncharacteristic turnovers from Tom Brady. But coming back from a 20-point deficit against a Pats team that is historically merciless at putting away opponents is a great sign for the Bills.
Everybody is going to score on the Pats this year. This is the third straight week that they've let up over 350 passing yards. And two of those games were against not-exactly-Peyton-Mannings in Chad Henne and Ryan Fitzpatrick. No pass rush + shaky secondary = easy points against New England.
The Eagles might not be good. Philly has three below-average units (linebackers, safeties, offensive line). You can't be an elite team (or even a division winner) with glaring weaknesses like that. The offensive line could come together as the season goes along, but the defense ain't going to magically repair itself. They're 1-2, and are in dire straits with Vick picking up another injury (broken hand).
This is the year Houston becomes a contender (seriously). They got beat by the Saints on the road. But they played really well on offense. They put up 33 points, and that's even a little misleading since they had to settle three field goes of under 30 yards.
Don't make too much of the Jets collapse. Weird stuff happens when teams play road games on the opposite coast. The Jets were rolling right along — doing the Jets thing and steadily increasing their lead to 17-7. But then Darren McFadden and Oakland went nuts all of sudden in the last 18 minutes. Call it an aberration, for now.
LIONS-MANIA!!!!?!?!?! The legend of the First Sleeper To Ever Actually Pan Out continues to grow. They did what the Bucs did it week two, thumping the Vikings in the second half on the road and then winning it in OT. They're 3-0.
Week three was a wash in the development of Cam Newton. It was literally a wash since it was a monsoon in Carolina. Cam had his worst game (understandable considering the conditions), but he got his first win. Go figure.
The Rams stink. Sorry ya'll. The Sam Bradfords are 0-3, and have lost by at least 12 points in every game.

Many women who married young and then find themselves single sixteen or twenty or more years later, find that they have no credit history if their credit card has been an extension of their husband's. Even if the woman was in charge of paying the bills, the credit card statements or the mortgage payment, it's the husband's credit rating that gets credited, not hers.Source: http://ezinearticles.com/6563471
