Toward the end of a tough year with Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Discount | zero Grand Slam final appearances, Roger Federer is splitting with coach Paul Annacone.

Federer, who owns a record 17 Grand Slam titles, announced Saturday on his website that he will stop working with Annacone after 3 1/2 seasons together.

"After numerous conversations culminating at the end of our most recent training block, we felt like this was the best time and path for both of us," the posting continues.

The move comes only two days after Federer's latest surprising loss in a year filled with them: He was beaten 6-4, 6-7 Discount Arizona Cardinals Jerseys | (5), 6-3 in the third round of the Shanghai Masters by Gael Monfils, a former top-10 player now ranked 42nd and recently back from injury.

The defeat hurt the 32-year-old Federer's chances of qualifying for the season-ending ATP Tour Finals, a tournament that gathers the top eight singles players.

Federer used Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Discount | to be a lock for the field, year-in and year-out - he spent more weeks at No. 1 in the ATP rankings than any other man. But Federer was ranked only No. 7 last Monday and is no longer nearly the dominant presence he was for a decade.

The tournament in China was the first for Federer Cheap NFL Jerseys | since Discount Arizona Cardinals Jerseys his fourth-round exit at the U.S. Open, where he lost to 19th-seeded Tommy Robredo in straight sets on Sept. 3.

"Roger, when he was No. 1, (compared) to the Roger right now," Robredo said that day, "he's not maybe (playing) with the same confidence, no?"

Federer has struggled at times in 2013 with a bad back. He's also experimented off and on with a larger racket head. He failed to reach at least one final at any of the four Grand Slam tournaments, something that last happened to him in 2002. That year also marked the last time he was ranked lower than he is now.

He lost in the semifinals at the Australian Open Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Discount | in January, the quarterfinals at the French Open in early June, and the second round of Wimbledon - against a player ranked 116th - in late June. That ended Federer's record run of reaching at least the quarterfinals at 36 consecutive major tournaments.

The loss to Robredo gave Federer a new, unwanted streak that he will carry into the 2014 Australian Open: two consecutive losses before the quarterfinals at majors.

His last Grand Slam championship came in 2012 at Wimbledon, which he won for the record-tying seventh time. That allowed Federer to return to No. 1 in the rankings, ended a 2 1/2-year major title drought - and marked the lone Grand Slam trophy Federer and Annacone won as a pair.

In Saturday's announcement, Federer refers to a three-year plan he and Annacone, who previously worked with Pete Sampras, established in order to earn a Grand Slam title and a return to No. 1.

"Along with many other goals and great memories," the posting says, "these 2 main goals were achieved."

Interest rates have been falling over the last month as the Federal Reserve's quantitative easing program gets extended and political uncertainty grows. The interest rate on a 10-year Treasury note () is sitting at 2.7% after tickling the underside of 3% in early September. Rates have been trending lower Cheap Giants Jerseys On Sale for more than three decades, suggesting to some the move higher in yields so far this year has been just another fake-out.

is sticking with to get out of longer-term notes, saying Bernanke has given investors one last chance to bail out by delaying QE.

Book the trade! Munson shouts in the above video. He says the Fed drove this trade by delaying the taper 鈥?and a flight to safety ahead of the government shutdown pushed the trade even harder. The difference between 2.7% Giants Jerseys For Cheap Cheap Giants Jerseys Sale and 2.5% yields is irrelevant, but getting long bonds while the 10-year yield breaks out Cheap Authentic Ravens Jerseys On Sale over 3% would be a disaster.

Advisors Cheap Authentic Ravens Jerseys Sale may like to sell customers on the idea that bonds are a safe haven, but Munson regards them as a place to park cash until opportunities emerge in equities. The trade is over, and it's a Authentic Giants Jerseys Sale miracle that it lasted as long as it has.

He says there's a good chance you have more risk exposure than you may think.

Landon is a 3-year-old boy who, two Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Discount | years ago, became fussy and had a seizure. He had drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Discount | meningitis. After 21 months of taking difficult drugs and almost three months in the hospital, he is doing surprisingly well.

Jon is a 16-year-old with diabetes who developed TB in his lungs that almost killed him. Several friends and healthcare workers caught the germ from him.

These are not children in Africa or Asia. They are children in Texas.

Over the past 30 years, I have cared for 1,000 children with TB and am considered an expert regarding the disease. The bad news is that I became an expert right here in Houston. Today, the tuberculosis clinic at is as busy as it ever has been.

Tuberculosis remains one of the major global scourges of humans. Every year, more than one million people around the world die from it. Well over 75,000 deaths are in children. Children Discount Arizona Cardinals Jerseys who breathe in TB germs can become ill within weeks or a few months. Children often do not show signs of illness until the disease is advanced Cheap NFL Jerseys | and difficult to treat. The true tragedy is that TB is both curable and preventable if the available tools are applied properly.

Childhood TB has been neglected for many reasons. Children with TB are often poor and live in vulnerable communities where there is poor access to health care. Making the diagnosis can be difficult, so TB is often missed or overlooked. Most young children with TB are not contagious. As such they are ignored in places where the disease is common among adults. And no one has been speaking out for children.

Fortunately, the tide is turning. On Oct. 1, in conjunction with the and , the World Health Organization, the Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease and several other organizations launched the Roadmap for Childhood Tuberculosis. This landmark document outlines the 10 essential steps that, if followed, will ensure that no child, from Houston to Hong Kong, dies from TB.

Achieving this goal requires sustained advocacy, greater commitment, mobilization of increased resources, enhanced research and a joint effort by everyone involved in providing health care for children.

Implementing this roadmap requires better use of the available tools. It also will require research to develop better diagnostic tests and child-friendly drugs. While much of this research will be done in Africa and Asia, Houston also has a rich history of childhood TB research that dates back 65 years. Many of the techniques of modern TB control were developed in Houston.

Of course, all of this requires money, but not as much as you might think. For $80 million a year for prevention and treatment, and $40 million for research, childhood TB can be eliminated as one of Arizona Cardinals Jerseys Discount | the 10 leading causes of death in children.

However, money is not enough.

Two major actions are required. First, we need to create a sense of urgency beyond the TB community. Rather than waiting for children to become seriously ill before we find and treat them, the broader child health community must get involved to find and prevent childhood TB.

Second, we must include the needs of children in research and policy development. This will benefit both adults and children. A large proportion of adults who develop TB actually acquired the infection when they were children. The treatment of these children will prevent Discount Arizona Cardinals Jerseys | future cases of contagious adult TB and the cycle of transmission will be broken.

The common wisdom among folks who care for children with TB is that every case is preventable, and is a failure of TB control. We must ask ourselves how much longer we will allow this preventable disease to hurt and kill children all over the world. It is too late to prevent the disease that Landon and Jon had to battle, but it is not too late for millions of other kids just like them, here and around the world.

 

Jeffrey R. Starke, a physician, is a professor of pediatrics at and is one of the authors of the Roadmap for Childhood Tuberculosis.

Earlier this week, NFL owners to help pay for upgrades at the homes of the Washington Redskins and Cleveland Browns. from the as the team gets ready to start on its improvements after this season ends.
