Greyhound trainer Deane Stapleton poised for his ton
Relevant offers
Greyhound trainer Deane Stapleton is poised to score his 100th win for the season at either the Addington or Ascot Park meetings today.
The Rakaia licence holder is in his fifth season of training and his previous best tally for a term is 81 wins in 2009-10. He has already surpassed that total with 99 wins this season.
Stapleton will be represented by 21 runners today - seven at Addington and 14 at Ascot Park. Three others in the team are on the ballot at the Southland Greyhound Racing Club's meeting.
Ninety two of Stapleton's wins have been on his own account, while another seven were with former training partner Kylie Bonnet.
"At the start of the season I decided to have a go for 100 wins. That's why we've kept our [dog] numbers up," Stapleton said yesterday.
"We're working 45 but next season we'll get down to 30."
It would be appropriate for Stapleton to reach the ton at Ascot Park.
The venue has been a happy hunting ground for him, with 50 wins being posted this season.
His other Ascot Park statistics for the term include training four winners in a day twice, a hat-trick of wins on seven occasions, a winning double seven times and a single winner on a card seven times.
Only on two occasions this season he has gone home without a winner. In total, his greyhounds have started 428 times at Ascot Park for 50 wins, 53 seconds and 57 thirds.
Stapleton's runners have filled a trifecta four times and a quinella 13 times. His 50 Ascot Park wins have come from 29 greyhounds.
A large part of his income is derived from stakes earned at Ascot Park.
"I train dogs especially for Invercargill meetings. I buy them cheap or I do deals.
"In this game, you can be eating t-bone steak one week and eating wallpaper off the walls the next," Stapleton said.
Should he reach the century today, he will become the 15th trainer to achieve the feat this season. Carolyn Hore, of Cambridge, posted her 100th victory at Manukau Stadium, Auckland, on Sunday. John McInerney leads the premiership with 560 wins.
Stapleton said his best chances at Ascot Park were Charles Frederick (race two) and Chokehold (race five). He thought Blazing Hot (race three) was his main hope at Addington.
"Chokehold is a track specialist at Invercargill, Charles Frederick does go good races at Invercargill and Blazing Hot has drawn wide at seven ... a draw he likes."

Leading North American Broadcasters Make Autoscript E.P.I.C. Their Go-To Prompting System
SHELTON, CT, MAY 29, 2013âFollowing its introduction last fall of the award-winning E.P.I.C. (Enhanced Prompting Information Centre) all-in-one prompter display and on-air talent monitor, Autoscript, part of Vitec Videocom, a Vitec Group company, and a world-leading teleprompting company, has seen tremendous interest in the product among leading North American broadcasters. The first E.P.I.C. units to roll off the assembly line sold out in a matter of months and are already in use at several high-level news organizations throughout major U.S. media markets.
âThe E.P.I.C. made its debut at a prime time, with the presidential election being at the top of everyoneâs news agenda,â says Robin Brown, product manager, Autoscript. âOne particular news organization purchased four 17-inch prompter systems to cover the Democratic and Republican conventions, and then successfully integrated the systems into their field kits for large outside broadcast events after the presidential election was over.â
The E.P.I.C. is a unique all-in-one prompter display and on-air talent monitor that vastly simplifies studio equipment while retaining the advanced features and functions of the Autoscript LED prompter series. The groundbreaking design, which replaces two pieces of equipment with one, features a unique integrated flip-down talent monitor, making the system ideal for both studio and location production. Compared to separate prompter monitor configurations, this ergonomic system reduces overall weight, increasing compatibility with robotic/support systems. It also streamlines cable management for video, tally signal and timecode display, and lowers power consumption with the capability to run the entire system via one power cable. âThe systemâs reduced weight allows for easy transport,â adds Brown. âWe have offered bespoke flight cases to our customers to aid in the transport, which can hold the E.P.I.C., hood, glass and mounting hardware.â
While the E.P.I.C. offers broadcasters a streamlined system that is quick and easy to set up, it still provides the functionality of the fully featured studio systems theyâre accustomed to using. It can also incorporate Autoscriptâs WinPlus newsroom softwareâthe most popular prompting application in daily usage around the world. The Windows-based WinPlus adds the ease of point-and-click functionality to an intuitive on-screen edit display.
Brown notes that current customers appreciate the integrated clock. âIt reduces the amount of cabling needed. All power, for the tally signal and time-code data comes right from within the monitor, so thereâs nothing extra to add,â he says. âTheyâve also come to appreciate the ease of rigging, as the talent monitor is attached to the prompter. Weâve taken this simplicity a step further and provided a dual-SDI-input version to make the prompter monitor and talent monitor signals digital, without the need for up or down conversion.â
About Autoscript
Autoscript is the world leader in the prompting industry, providing professional teleprompting equipment to broadcasters across the globe. Established in the UK in 1984, with headquarters in the UK and the US, Autoscript designs and builds innovative hardware, PC cards and software to meet real world needs and continually enhance the production process. A prime example of this is Autoscriptâs latest product, the E.P.I.C. (Enhanced Prompting Information Centre), an all-in-one prompter display and on-air talent monitor that vastly simplifies studio equipment, reduces power consumption and enables easier location prompting. Autoscript is a member of the Vitec Group.

Wisconsin Badgers' Austin Hudson A True Freshman To Watch This Season
It seems like the Wisconsin Badgers defense is always flying under the radar, despite consistently being one of the best units in the Big 10. Last season, Wisconsin only allowed teams to go for 305 yards per game and ranked sixth in the nation by giving up 16.3 points per game. This season, however, the Badgers are in dire need of production from the safety position after losing Tanner McEvoy to a position change. Redshirt junior Michael Caputo will fill one of those spots, but the other could belong to true freshman Austin Hudson, who, much like the entire Wisconsin defense, has been flying under the radar.
Hudson was not a very sought-after recruit coming out of high school. Ranked 272nd by 247Sports.com in state of Florida alone, Hudson used a one-day high school camp last summer to impress Wisconsin's coaching staff and eventually landed himself in Madison. He enrolled early this spring, receiving valuable reps at safety, which is paying off now more than he probably expected.
On top of McEvoy moving to quarterback this season, expected 2014 starter Reggie Mitchell transferred to Pittsburgh, and potential junior college transfer Donnell Vercher was allegedly not accepted to the university. As the dominoes fell for the Badgers at safety, in stepped Hudson, who now sits on top of the depth chart heading into fall camp and has the opportunity to spring up from the list unknowns and onto the field to compete with one of college football's best defenses.
Coach Gary Anderson expressed concern in his secondary's overall athleticism, which just might be Hudson's biggest contribution this season. His closing speed is a tremendous asset, making him available on the field for just about every situation. And Anderson is certainly not afraid to throw a true freshman into the mix. Sojourn Shelton played at corner last season for the Badgers, recording 31 tackles and five pass break-ups.
In this case for Wisconsin, starting Hudson as a true freshman seems to become a smaller and smaller risk as time goes on and his skill and impact on the field become more apparent. It would only be fitting that an under-the-radar player helps the Wisconsin defense this season.

Title: Snow damage to non-native Japanese maple in Oakdale NY
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:My beautiful 10 year old miniature Japanese Maple was damaged by heavy snow this year. Two of the biggest limbs cracked under the weight of the snow and are just barely hanging on. Can I repair them and save this tree? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
We are sorry to hear about your tree damage, and even sorrier about the extreme weather you have been experiencing in the Northeast this year.
First, we would like to point out that the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is dedicated to the use, protection and propagation of plants native not only to North America but to the region in which they are being grown. Acer palmatum, Japanese maple, is native to temperate areas of Japan, Korea and China, and therefore out of our range of expertise.
This USDA Plant Profile of New York State and Long Island shows that Acer palmatum does indeed grow in the area of Suffolk County, which is USDA Hardiness Zone 6a, within the hardiness zone of the Japanese maple, Zones 5b through 8. Although not native, we understand this is a valuable and expensive tree. The snow loads which broke the branches on your tree are, hopefully, not that common and we can understand your wishing to preserve it. Pruning and recovery of this tree is really a job for a certified, trained arborist, and we suggest you get advice from such a specialist.

Hezbollah's deputy leader Sheikh Naim Qassem speaks in front of students at the LU in Hadath, Lebanon, Wednesday, Feb. 15, 2012. (The Daily Star/Hasan Shaaban)
BEIRUT: Hezbollah Tuesday called for a political consensus on a new president and warned that Lebanon might slip into a power vacuum if no head of state is elected by May 25.
Political leaders must "agree on a president," Hezbollah's deputy head Sheikh Naim Qassem said.
"If no consensus is reached, it means that ... we might plunge into [power] vacuum," Qassem warned. "I'm not saying we want [a power] vacuum, but I'm saying that this vacuum is the natural result of the failure by some [politicians] to make consensual decisions."
President Michel Sleiman's term ends May 25 with no clear candidate capable of garnering the needed majority in Parliament to win the presidency.
A third round of voting is scheduled for Wednesday. However, the session is likely to fail to elect a president amid an expected boycott by most MPs from the Hezbollah-led March 8 coalition.
Qassem said that not just any president could run Lebanon.
"If a president is helpless, without color or taste, it will be a big mistake because this president won't be able to govern the country," he said. "A president who is capable of running the country and creating a state of stability is one who is able to draft an agreement among the Lebanese political forces, commit to the agreement, develop a work plan and stick to his words and obligations and have credibility."
