Everton boss Moyes has word with Fellaini concerning press comments

Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini returned from international duty with Belgium to find the boss David Moyes waiting to have a word with him about comments he made whilst away.

The 24-year-old told journalists from his homeland: "This will be one of my last seasons. I have seen everything. In January, or at the end of the season, I will look for another club or league."

Moyes felt Fellaini had been naive but insisted the matter was now closed.

"I think sometimes the players, when they go away on international duty, have their egos massaged and things are said when they maybe think they are talking to a different audience," he said.

"They think maybe they can say things which don't matter - well, it does matter and I've made Marouane aware of that.

"The transfer window shut a while ago so it doesn't really matter.

"These things happen, I've had a word with him and we move on."

Morning Word, 09-13-12

A poll shook up the political outlook in New Mexico... again. This time it was a poll by Public Policy Polling, a pollster with ties to liberal groups and the Democratic Party. But the poll also was in line with many other polls in the Senate race -- every poll since July has shown Martin Heinrich with a lead between 7 and 9 percent over Heather Wilson.

The Presidential race is murkier. It showed a double-digit lead for Barack Obama over Mitt Romney, but did not include Gary Johnson, at the behest of the conservation coalition that paid for the poll. After double-digit leads by Obama for many polls, two straight polls showed his lead at just five percent -- including a July poll by PPP.

As The Word has said many times, the fact that neither the campaign is expending resources in the state is perhaps the best indicator that the state is closer to double-digits in favor of Obama than five points for Obama.

On to the Word:

Some of the gains in health insurance coverage can be attributed to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which has required private insurers to allow parents to cover their children up to age 26. Even though the majority of the provisions in the federal health care reform dont go into effect until 2014, it is clearly having a positive impact, particularly for young New Mexicans, Bradley said.

A reader wrote about the irony of Wilson, a Republican, hoping for debates on publicly-funded PBS, a service that Republicans have voted to defund time and time again.

On Pearce's $7.48 million net worth:

Pearce's biggest holding was at least $5 million of stock in Trinity Industries Inc., an equipment rental company of which Pearce is president. His wife had a stake in Lea County Bancshares worth at least $1 million. In 2011, the lawmaker also reported selling an airplane that netted at least $500,000.

Just for kicks, ask a campaign worker what they think about campaign signs off the record over a beer. It will be fun.

BBM being added as a word to the latest Collins English Dictionary

By The Canadian Press

WATERLOO, Ont. - BlackBerry's instant messaging service has found a new home, nestled between BBL and bbq.

The term BBM is being added to the latest edition of the Collins English Dictionary.

Shorthand for Research In Motion's BlackBerry Messenger software, the dictionary is listing it as an abbreviation as well as a noun and a verb.

The company says making it into the dictionary shows just how popular BBM is around the world.

RIM (TSX:RIM.TO - News) says 70 per cent of its customers use BBM on a daily basis.

The company noted several recent references to BBM including Olympic gold medal sprinter Usain Bolt saying he had to thank a "few people on my BBM."

RIM says singers such as Tinie Tempah and Sean Kingston have also both mentioned BBM in their songs, "Miami to Ibiza" and the aptly titled, "BBM."

T.A. McCann, vice-president of BBM and social communities at RIM, says the inclusion in the dictionary recognizes its status as one of the world's most popular mobile social networks.

RIM is planning to release a new generation of smartphones early next year in a bid to regain ground lost to Apple's iPhone and smartphones with Google's Android operating system.

Watch the Video: Press Pass Pullman – Week 2

*SWX has begun a new weekly program with the arrival of Mike Leach at Washington State. Press Pass Pullman airs every Monday night at 10 p.m., right before SWX Tonight.

Press Pass Pulllman features the highlights from Monday's media day in Pullman. And because Coach Leach limits the availability of players to the media during the week, the weekly program on SWX is a must-see for true Cougar fans!

The consistent theme throughout Monday's weekly news conference with Washington State was one word: consistency. Coach Mike Leach addressed it. Running back Carl Winston addressed it. Linebacker Darryl Monroe addressed it. And everyone else was thinking it.

Leach said his Cougars showed some "really positive" things on Saturday against Eastern Washington, but the inconsistency on all sides of the ball was the negative part.

Coach Leach on playing Eastern Washington:

"Anytime you get these deals where everybody is just a few miles apart, every time I've done it, they're just funny games. Everybody thought about going to this school or that school and everybody went to high school together and stuff like that, so it really creates this near-proximity rivalry whatever it's called. The ball bounced that way and I think there was erratic play, really on both teams a little bit. But the one thing I thought [EWU] did impressively was they didn't seem to have the ups and downs we did."

Leach said he admired the way Eastern Washington played "really hard". And Leach said he was disappointed in the way his team let down in the third quarter.

On Jeff Tuel, his injuries and whether he will play against UNLV:
