Smith's Nightmarish Inspiration
Picture: Will Smith The Sports Dream Celebrity Poker Tournament at the Playboy Mansion Los Angeles, California - 10.07.07
OSCAR-nominated movie star WILL SMITH decided to become an actor after seeing ROBERT ENGLUND in A NIGHTMARE OF ELM STREET.
The ALI heart-throb loved watching the classic 1984 horror flick about serial killer FREDDIE KRUEGER during his childhood in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Smith says, "My two favourite movies, the ones that had the most effect on me growing up, would have to be Nightmare Of Elm Street and STAR WARS.
"I always loved the energy and the excitement of going to see something that I had been for four months to see - that's the reason I make movies and for me, A Nightmare On Elm Street was that movie. I was just insane to see it.
"And Star Wars was really the first time I just had my mind blown by a movie."09/07/2004 19:27

VIDEO: Leigh's Voice UK star to take on new charity challenge
Updated 3:58pm Monday 12th May 2014 in News
NOT content with already having raised thousands of pounds for the Alzheimer's Society, David Julien is at it again.
After cycling more than 1,000 miles from Leigh to Barcelona last year with friend Mark McKeever, The Voice UK contestant has set his sights on a new challenge.
This time, he and Mark will travel by canoe along the 60 mile Caledonian Canal in Scotland in July - but only after they have completed the three peaks challenge in 24 hours.
"We played with the idea of travelling by little sail boat from Ireland down to Portugal," said the 25-year-old.
"But that was too big an adventure to complete for us being as un-skilled and inexperienced as we are. But we wanted to stick with the idea of water somehow.
"Then someone suggested we try to canoe the Caledonian Canal. But being the way we are, that was "too easy" so Mark suggested the three peaks too, as the final peak is over at Fort William in Scotland which is where the Caledonian Canal starts."
The pair started their charity mission for the Alzheimer's Society as both have grandparents who suffer from the condition and they hope to add another £500 to the £2,700 they raised last year.
David, who lives in Leigh and reached the quarter finals of the BBC singing competition in 2012, said: "I don't think much will be harder than the bike ride. That really did push me to the limit.
"The three peaks will be tough on our legs and feet then the canoeing will take its toll on our shoulders.
"Plus there is the element of capsizing and there has even been four meter high waves reported on Loch Ness. Oh and let's not forget the relentless fly bites - apparently they will be in their millions. "
To donate visit, www.justgiving.com/2canoe.

Rented a car from Luton airport area, which actually is not in the airport at all. You can either grab a taxi from an airport or take a free buss to long term parking zone to get to easirent office. We got a smaller car than we booked, rear mirror was broken. There was confusion with additional insurance, which is obligatory, although we did have full insurance already. Don't miss: admin fee of 55 pounds will be applied to all motoring offences received, so you'll end up paying double for that… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

The reason for the low price is because the Rental Co is off airport, this is a small inconvenience. A bus ride (prepaid) takes you straight to the Rental office located at hotel near to airport. The car was in excellent condition. The receptionist was good although his 1st language was not English. He was pleasant and efficient. The car was clean and tank half full, paid for by the customer.All paperwork easy to understand. If I have any moan its the fact of returning the car empty.

The email I received from as a notification for my rental did not highlight that proof of address was required. The lady at the counter was rude and not helpful. I explained that I had proof of address on my driving license both paper and photo ID card, also all my utility bills are electronic so are my bank statements so I did not have any. The lady at the counter then called car trawler and I waited 15 minutes and she did not say anything to me.. meanwhile asking me to complete a… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

This is a company operating from a portable office in a car lot at around 1/2 mile off the airport. you need to take a bus to get there. You will probably find them in comparsion websites as they come marginally cheaper. But do worry. You will pay well above the odds later. For starters, they will charge you a 1250 deposit on your credit card WAY WAY above normal prices from more traditional renters. If you are not lucky to have a card with that limit they will offer you pay extra and drive… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

Although a little way from the airport itself, I was most impressed by the customer service offered by the employees of Easirent. They did all they could to speed up the return of the car as I was running late for a flight and acted as great ambassadors for the firm when they could quite easily simply have left me to the vagaries of the shuttle bus service. A very good experience in an industry renowned for niggles and problems… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

Terms and conditions do not outline that driver has to be credit card holder. When we had no other option their customer service was terrible and they could not give us any of the money we had already paid back despite us not having a car.

Am taking them to the small claims court on 3rd September. Let's hope I can strike a blow for justice and hit them where it hurts, in their pocket. They don't give a damn about their customers and I'm so sorry you had such a rotten experience.

They were not at Heathrow airport UK but at a hotel 20 min away. It took me including telephone calls and waiting time more than an hour to get there, Sheraton skyline. This i was not aware of, i rented through rentalcars.com. I didn´t see it when i booked and it was not on my voucher. I was screwed. At the counter at Easirent, they more or less threatened me to cancel my prepaid insurance (rental cars) and take theirs, as it happens much more expensive dito. Otherwise they requested a… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

BEWARE - This company relies on low fees to come out on top when using online brokers that compare based on price. But once you are assigned to them they have a wide range of cleverly designed (barely legal?) methods of stealing from you. For example: - they will say your credit card does not work for the deposit payment and will refuse to let you use another card for deposit unless you include that other person as extra driver at cost of 50% of your actual rental price or pay for even more… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

Please do yourself a favour, there are many companies out there not trying to rip you off and make life difficult. Be aware of how they try and make things difficult rather than easy. My experience at Gatwick and rise around me at the time show that research needs to be done before booking with them. I am happy for those with a good experience but if you have time to make another choice I would urge you to do so. It's as simple as that… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

Booked through Easirent to pick up vehicle at Manchester Airport. Was given a mobile number to call when we arrived which I did, advised a car was despatched to pick us up and walked to taxi rank where we told to meet it. After another telephone call and a 20 minute wait with luggage a car arrived to pick us up. The rental firm is situated in a Marriott Hotel a couple of miles away from the airport. When we arrived we were surprised at the set up a small office at the back of the hotel. We… Read Full ReviewVisit easirent.com

This movie is a hentai parody of Teen Titans featuring Jinx, Cyborg, Raven and Starfire. Even though this is a parody, it is extremely sexually explicit in nature and is for viewers aged 18 and over.

Fire rips through apartment
An entire apartment complex in New Westminster, has been gutted by fire.
The fire broke out at around 1:30 Friday morning, possibly in a second floor suite in the three storey building (at 4th Street and Ash Street) near Moody Park.
Flames quickly tore through all the units, leaving firefighters with little option but to protect neighbouring buildings, with another apartment just metres away.
The burning structure collapsed just after five a.m.
Firefighters from Delta and Burnaby joined New Westminster fire crews to help keep the blaze from spreading to the older three storey apartments in the mainly residential area.
There are no immediate reports of injuries and a cause has not been determined.

Hello everyone. Quick question regarding thermostat placement. Due to a remodel i will be moving my digital thermostat. I understand the reasons for keeping it off of exterior walls. My next best location is a small interior wall which is constructed around the home's brick chimney (non-wood burning, vent purposes only). The furnace is high eff. and vented via pvc so the chimney is only serving the hot water tank. I'm wondering if the radiant heat from top of the chimney exposed to direct sunlight would have a significant effect on the thermostat indoors? Also, following the furnace upgrade, and the fact that the chimney is only being used to vent the hot water tank-due you think a chimney liner is needed to prevent deterioration of brick(live in cold climate)Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thank you very much
Is radiant heat too much?

I have been trying to keep up with reading the Loop but haven't posted my runs since Saturday so here is a quick round up.
Monday - I had hoped for 9 miles after work. Didn't get much sleep due to kids being on Spring Break and not going to bed (I think at all) until very late early in the morning. I brought my camera and was going to do my scavenger hunt. Started off and my legs were really tight. Stopped to stretch and take pictures along the way. About 3 miles in I decided it was not going to be 9 miles or the scavenger hunt since I was hurting to much to enjoy myself and think about what I needed pictures of. Ditched it at 7 miles and really started to worry about my half in 3 weeks (eek).
Tuesday - My legs were sore but I decided I wanted to get a short run in. Stretched and rolled and rolled my legs somemore before I started. The first mile was very painful again and I was pretty discouraged and mad. I stopped and stretched and decided that I was going to just pick up the pace and suffer through 2 more miles as fast as I could. Funny thing, when I picked up the pace my legs felt much better. Finished the last mile at close to my 5K race pace so that made me happy. Sat outside on the steps enjoying the warm weather. My oldest son got home from work and we had a great heart to heart talk that you just can plan to have. I love these conversations with him because at his age (20) I know they are going to be few and far between.
Wednesday - 5 miler with my running buddy Steph. I love when it is just her and me on the hilly route. I rolled my feet during lunch with a rubber ball another RB had given me for PF. That thing is magic!! We started out fast for some reason and we were both huffing and puffing by 3/4 of mile. We brought the pace back a notch and had a really enjoyable run. I had to walk a little bit of a hill which frustrated me but I know I will get back to owning that thing soon. The last big hill on the route I didn't even try, my legs were sore and tired. We walked about 2/3 of it then finished out with a slow pace. All in all a great run, my legs are getting better daily. Don't know what I did to tick them off but I scheduled a massage for tomorrow so hopefully they will like me again.
Tonight I am going to do another 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 miles around my little town. It is raining here today and I absolutely love running in the rain so I can't resist.
I am hoping for a 10-11 miler on Saturday. I need to get a couple longer runs under my belt for the half at the end of the month. I also hope to make that my scavenger hunt run.
Unrelated but - Tejas Runner has been in my thoughts so much the last week. He hasn't put anything on the loop but I wondered if there was an update on Loopville that someone could share. If you remember he was supposed to have an ablation and like I said he has just been in my thoughts alot and I wondered if he was alright.
Get out there and enjoy a run - just because you can!
Rock on and keep on running.....
A half in 3 weeks! (But who's counting?)
I was thinking of Tejas Runner the other day also. Hope there is good news.
I hope that the massage helps
I can't even imagine trying to do a long run after work on a Monday!

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Apolo Anton Ohno is going for the green at the Kids' Choice Awards.
The Olympic-winning speed skater will attempt to set a new world record for being catapulted into slime at Saturday's 23nd annual shenanigan-packed Nickelodeon spectacle held inside UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. Ohno will perform the messy feat with the help of the Kids' Choice Awards Slime Slingshot and ripped World Wrestling Entertainment champion John Cena.

Power being restored, roads reopening in Central PA
The weather is certainly different than the past several days. It's a bit raw outside but the rain and wind has slowed down considerably. But now is the hard part. The cleanup is underway across the area as power crews try and restore electricity to almost 12,000 still in the dark here in Central Pennsylvania. Road crews are also trying to reopen hundreds of roads closed by high waters.
Crews outside of Spring Grove are replacing nearly a dozen power poles after strong winds and rain from Sandy knocked out the power source. Hundreds in Jackson Township, York County are still in the dark because of the outages. Crews worked all day yesterday and more work will be done today to get people online. Route 116 east of Spring Grove will remain closed into tonight as people in the area continue to try and get their lives back on track.
Here are the latest power outage numbers:
Met-Ed is trying to get over 148,000 people back online statewide including over 10,000 in Central Pennsylvania.
Franklin, Lebanon and York Counties were the hardest.
Here are Met-Ed's outages as of 6:30 a.m.: Franklin County= 3,506 customers without power Lebanon County= 2,441 customers without power York County= 1,493 customers without power Dauphin County= 852 customers without power Adams County= 509 customers without power
PPL is fighting to restore over 288,000 people statewide but most are not in our area.
Here are PPL's outages as of 6:30 a.m.: Lancaster County= 998 customers without power Dauphin County= 852 customers without power There are also scattered outages in Lebanon, Cumberland, Perry and York Counties as well.
Adams Electric Cooperative is also reporting 843 outages.
Crews are hoping to get the power restored over the next couple of days. However, pack that patience because in some cases Met-Ed and PPL crews say it could be Sunday before everyone gets back online.Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

walkable distance to the metro stationPosted Dec 14, 2013 on Hotels.com
I liked this hotel mainly because of the 3 mins walk to the closest Metro. I had to shift the rooms 3 times since in each room, either the TV or Mini-Fridge did not work. Breakfast is not bad but it is not buffett style.

Manager Donald is 100% dedicated to all his guestsPosted Dec 17, 2012 on Hotels.com
In India on our own for the first time, we were pretty terrified of what we might get in booking a hostel online - especially when we got into the cab at the Delhi Airport and drove around for two hours because the driver didn't know where it was and didn't speak English! Fortunately, the relief of a lifetime came when we were cordially greeted by the hotel manager Donald and the few dedicated staff at the Hotel Palace Sarthak. The rooms were clean to basic Western standards, WiFi was available on request (very important as an online business owner), and although the food was only available through room service so we never saw the kitchen, it was delicious and incredibly affordable. Of course, we tipped heavily (two dollars can be a day's wage in India, so we would happily hand out 100 rupees for any task) and were taken incredibly good care of. My partner also got sick and unfortunately had to spend a couple days in hospital on an IV drip, and Donald and the hotel were 100% there for us - they stored our excess luggage, didn't charge us anything extra at all, and even came and visited my partner in hospital to see how he was doing. The only qualm I had was with the location, which is a sort of marketplace dirt roads sort of suburb a little bit away from the Westernised area of Delhi - but it held its delights. Overall, an excellent service that, if I ever came to visit India again, I wouldn't hesitate for a second.

Posted Jan 10, 2012 on Hotels.com
While this hotel was adequate I'd never return. The water in the shower was either scalding or freezing. The room itself was rather cold - I know it was cold outside, but I expected some sort of optional heat. Convenient to the metro, but otherwise not the best location for tourists. For the price I know I could have done better in Delhi and wish I had. Customer service at the desk was great, but dealing with the bellhops and room service was a nightmare. Lastly, we never got a good night sleep because there were loud, construction-like noises beginning around 3 am every night. In the end I am rather disappointed.

Ashanti - Body On Me ft. Nelly & Akon
Artist: Ashanti
Producer: Akon
Album: The Declaration
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 61 total votes )
While Ashanti fans have waited patiently for the singer to release an up-tempo song, music bloggers everywhere have been itching to feature a collaborative record with rumored beau, Nelly. Well, Ashanti aficionados rejoice, because Long Island's princess of The Inc. has teamed up with the St. Louis emcee and Akon for her new single, Body On Me. Set to be featured on her fourth EP, The Declaration, the song features a female singing lead, along with an opposing male lyrical perspective (a throwback to the early days of the Murderous ones?) For his part, Akon provides a two-stepping, smooth-piano beat, and sings a relatively unambiguous and clever hook. The Declaration is expected to hit stores and online retailers on June 3.

Nowadays, having a bundle of joy means needing a bundle of cash. The cost of raising a child is going up and up as children become more demanding, and as parents attempt to give them the world. All the while encouraged, of course, by a legion of kid-centric brands, preying on your little angels and your wallet, whether you can afford it or not.
That's the emotional hook – every parent wants the best things for the most important person in their life. And that's where the business element comes in, particularly in the UAE, where the children's furniture market is worth AED 300 million, according to the National.
Children's furniture store Çilek is making the most of the demand, and has just opened a second store in the country, the Nationa reports. And the chain hasn't missed a trick. "Kids today are very demanding," the brand manager, Miles Young,told the paper. "They're constantly being stimulated by television, the media and walking around shopping malls, so we market our products straight to them."
Clever, though a bit underhand for Kipp's liking.
And isn't all this spending creating a problem for the future? Last month we reported on a 21 year old spending $2,700 at Dubai's sixth Young Entrepreneurs Competition (YEC) at the Dubai Mall, an incredible amount given the low prices of many items.
If a child at the age of three gets luxury items, isn't it more likely he or she will grow up to be one of the "spoiled brats" of the UAE who spend a fortune each month on clothes and makeup?
Parents should consider that when a baby gets the best of everything right from the beginning, they will have nothing to look forward to and they will grow up with an enormous sense of entitlement.

A View From Israel: Truth will prevail
By ISRAEL KASNETT
11/22/2012 13:22
Citizen journalism allows the further spreading of truth, bypassing biased media outlets
DEMONSTRATORS WAVE flags at a rally in Paris
Photo: NADAV SHEMER
According to the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America, NPR's Leila Fadel raises the false charge of Israel targeting journalists. She states that Israel "struck a media building," without noting that the equipment Israel hit belonged to Hamas's Al-Aksa TV and Al-Quds TV.
Los Angeles Times
described a slain top Islamic Jihad Fighter as a "journalist."
A number of reporters were caught tweeting false information. BBC's Wyre Davies falsely tweeted that of the 13 Palestinians killed in Operation Pillar of Defense, nearly all were civilians.
Davies's colleague, Jon Donnison, retweeted a photo of a dead Syrian child, presenting it as a photo of a child from Gaza.
Photos of dead Syrian children are spreading across the Web, made to look like they are victims of Israel's defensive measures in Gaza.
Clayton Swisher of al-Jazeera tweeted that Palestinian rocket attacks at Israeli civilians were legal under the laws of war.
As Honest Reporting points out on its website, last Friday, a four-year-old boy was killed by what many news outlets including Reuters, AP and AFP, considered an Israeli strike. In fact, evidence at the scene points to an errant Hamas rocket. Even the Palestinian Center for Human Rights admitted it believed that the explosion had been caused by a Palestinian rocket.
Less than 24 hours after her youngest son's death, Esmat Sadallah, Muhammad's mother, admitted he may have been struck by a rocket fired by Palestinian terrorists.
The BBC showed an unverified video of an injured man suddenly recovering – and then refused to acknowledge its own lousy editorial policy.
WITH ALL the misleading information out there, there are many facts about the true nature of Hamas that are being spread and credit needs to go where it is due.
Jeffrey Goldberg deserves credit for his article in
The New York Times
entitled "The Strange Obsession With Proportional Body Counts," in which he argues against an editorial that claims the body count in Israel and Gaza is unequal. "The casualty count is lopsided, but why?" he writes. "A couple of reasons: Hamas rockets are inaccurate; Israel's Iron Dome anti-missile system is working well. But the Israeli body count isn't low because Hamas is trying to minimize Israeli casualties. Quite the opposite: Hamas's intention is to kill as many Israelis as possible. Without vigilance, and luck, and without active attempts by the Israel Air Force to destroy rocket launchers before they can be used, the Israeli body count would be much higher."
In another article, entitled "Seven Truths about Israel, Hamas and Violence" Goldberg writes, "there is no long-term military solution for Israel, short of turning Gaza into Chechnya or Dresden."
And he's right. There's no way to talk about proportionality without talking about the British bombing of Dresden in response to the London Blitz, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and even the 2002 Moscow Theater Crisis in which Russian forces killed approximately 120 civilians to reach Chechen terrorists holed up in a theater in Moscow.
Today, it is Syria that should be drawing attention.
Approximately 40,000 civilians have been killed so far and hundreds more are killed each day.
Alan Dershowitz, writing in The Wall Street Journal in January 2009, emphasized that "proportionality is not measured by the number of civilians actually killed, but rather by the risk posed. This is illustrated by what happened... when a Hamas rocket hit a kindergarten in Beer Sheva, though no students were there at the time. Under international law, Israel is not required to allow Hamas to play Russian roulette with its children's lives."
"Until the world recognizes that Hamas is committing three war crimes – targeting Israeli civilians, using Palestinian civilians as human shields, and seeking the destruction of a member state of the United Nations – and that Israel is acting in selfdefense and out of military necessity, the conflict will continue."
Indeed, the International Committee of the Red Cross deals with proportionality in detail.
It says, "Launching an attack which may be expected to cause incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians, damage to civilian objects, or a combination thereof, which would be excessive in relation to the concrete and direct military advantage anticipated, is prohibited."
"The principle of proportionality in attack is codified in Article 51(5)(b) of Additional Protocol I, and repeated in Article 57. At the Diplomatic Conference leading to the adoption of the Additional Protocols, France voted against Article 51 because it deemed that paragraph 5 by its 'very complexity would seriously hamper the conduct of defensive military operations against an invader and prejudice the inherent right of legitimate defence.' Interesting. Israel finds itself in this very position.
The ICRC states, "upon ratification of Additional Protocol I, Australia and New Zealand stated that they interpreted the term 'concrete and direct military advantage anticipated' as meaning that there is a bona fide expectation that the attack would make a relevant and proportional contribution to the objective of the military attack involved. According to the Commentary on the Additional Protocols, the expression 'concrete and direct' military advantage was used in order to indicate that the advantage must be 'substantial and relatively close, and that advantages which are hardly perceptible and those which would only appear in the long term should be disregarded.' It seems safe to say that Israel's campaign against Hamas carries obvious short- and long-term benefits and the advantages are highly perceptible.
CITIZENS TODAY are more aware of world events thanks to social media. Citizen journalism has now become important as it further allows the spreading of truth and largely bypasses biased media outlets.
Dan Hodges deserves credit for his article in The Telegraph in which he writes, "If the IRA were firing a few rockets or mortars at us, would we start bombing the Falls Road? Yes. We would."
Matthew Lee of the Associated Press gets a special shout-out for for challenging US State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland on the reasons the US kept quiet instead of defending Israel against Turkey's accusations that Israel is a "terrorist state."
Lee apparently got them thinking, since the State Department reportedly passed on a message to the Turks that their "extremely harsh" rhetoric in accusing Israel of terrorism in its current military operations in Gaza, is "unhelpful."
Israel's friends and foes alike have said that a Gaza invasion would lead to a loss of support for the campaign and delegitimacy for its cause.
Say what? So it's okay for Israel to defend itself – but not too much? A number of international leaders have cautioned that they would not support a ground offensive. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon hinted to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that it could be illegal under international law.
Netanyahu said that Hamas was committing a "double war crime, by indiscriminately targeting Israeli civilians while they hide behind their own.
"The moment we draw symmetry between the victims of terror and the unintended casualties that result from legitimate military action against the terrorists – the minute that false symmetry is drawn, the terrorists win," he said.
No matter what happens, foreign governments must be made to understand this. Israel's future depends on its ability to stand up to pressure and fight for what is right. Citizen journalists can surely assist and the last few days have proven that diligence online is not only useful, but influential in spreading the truth.

There was a report in the Mail over the weekend that Newcastle, who need to sign up to four strikers this summer, are interested in signing England International Danny Welbeck.
Danny Welbeck – Newcastle interested?
The Mail is reporting that new manager Davide Moyes could allow the 23 year-old to leave this summer, when the transfers both into and out of Manchester United will be crucial to David keeping his job, after a catastrophic first season at the Red Devils.
Danny spent a season on loan at Sunderland from 2010-2011 and in 26 appearances he scored 6 goals, but that shouldn't (necessarily) stop him from signing for Newcastle.
The 6'1″ tall right-footed striker has so far been capped 21 times for England with 8 goals, and there's no doubt this lad is a good striker – his goal on Saturday at West Brom was first class.
Danny has 29 goals in 128 appearances for Manchester United, and this season he's scored 10 goals in 25 appearances, and Danny played for all the England Youth sides, including 14 times for the U21 side with 5 goals.
Certainly Danny would be a welcome addition to the Newcastle ranks, and we could lose all four current strikers at the club this summer – in the worst case scenario.
We're not sure how much Danny would cost – and since he's English there would be a premium on his transfer fee and his wages too.
On the transfermarkt.com web site, he's valued at around €17K, which is about £14M, which isn't exactly cheap, especially when Loic Remy is available for £8M.
Of course the other thing is that this report may have no truth to it at all - that's always a good possibility (probability?) with these reports.
But what do you think – would Danny be a good acquisition for Newcastle United?
Comments welcome.

If analysts told clients what they need to know (instead of what they want to hear), it would sound something like this....
Whether you're the marketer, publisher, or agency, you're likely still playing the online advertising "average metrics" game: What are our numbers, and what are the average?
As a researcher, much of my time is spent answering questions of averages: average click rate, average open rate, and so on. My business is client service, so I have to give customers what they want. As such, I usually provide clients with whatever average they seek.
For a change, I'd like to use this occasion not to provide what many want but, rather, what they need. Here for your future reference is a grizzled analyst's treatise on the maddening misuse of middling metrics:

Captain Meg Lanning and the Australian team celebrate with the trophy. Photo: Getty Images
The Australian women's cricket team ended a year of agony against England by winning its third straight World Twenty20 title with a crushing six-wicket victory in Bangladesh on Sunday. The Southern Stars restricted England to 8-105 after being sent in by Meg Lanning. Australia won with 29 balls left despite losing two wickets just before clinching victory. It was a third world Twenty20 title for Australia, which lost back-to-back Ashes series in 2013-14. The target proved way too small, as Lanning (44 off 30 balls) and Ellyse Perry (31 not out off 32) added 60 in just over eight overs for the third wicket. Australia smashed 10 fours and four sixes and kept England to just eight boundaries. Lanning was out just two runs shy of the target and veteran Alex Blackwell (0 off 3) was trapped leg before wicket with the scores level. Elyse Villani (12 off 17) and Jess Jonassen (15 off 8) got the chase off to a quick start. England was well placed at 1-55 in the 10th over, but lost 8-46 and couldn't build a partnership of more than 33. Heather Knight (23 off 24) was the only England batter to pass 20 and hit three of her team's eight boundaries.

Here're a few local shows not to miss: Former St. Louisan Scott Windsor, sole member of the Lyndsay Diaries, writes pretty, sad songs that fans of both indie pop and emo can latch onto. So latch away at the Creepy Crawl on Friday. Miles of Wire, playing Saturday night at Frederick's Music Lounge, hasn't fled St. Louis yet, and that's a good thing. They play rollicking, rootsy tunes that recall Springsteen back when he rocked instead of campaigned. -- Jordan Harper
