Players/Officials: Matt Prior
Matches: England v Sri Lanka at Lord's
Series/Tournaments: Sri Lanka tour of England and Ireland
Matt Prior had his heart in his mouth when Sri Lanka reviewed a second-ball lbw appeal against him on the first afternoon at Lord's. It came down to a matter of inches, with his back leg a fraction outside the line. Prior survived, vowed to make the most it, and the end result was a bustling 86 in his first innings back after being dropped and having to battle an Achilles injury that he feared may not prove beatable.
Much of Prior's scoring was done on the opening day, as he rattled to 72, and he could only add 14 more on Friday before being bounced out by Shaminda Eranga from around the wicket, sparring a catch to short leg which revived images of the winter barrage by Mitchell Johnson. Prior kicked the ground in disgust, for both the manner of his dismissal and for missing the chance of another Lord's hundred - a century here would also have put him level with Les Ames as the most by an England wicketkeeper.
Then in the field he was back in the firing line behind the stumps. Balls were scuttling through on a slow surface, he was able to grab an edge off Chris Jordan but another, from the bat of Kaushal Silva off Stuart Broad, was ruled to have not carried by the third umpire.
"I felt it carried, in your keeping gloves you have rubber tips and I felt the ball hit the rubber tip and there's no doubt in my mind that it did carry but, unfortunately, this day and age it goes upstairs. We are disappointed the decision didn't stand but we move on."
But back to that lbw shout against Herath. "It was a whole range of emotions," Prior said. "You're just watching the screen, and it's like 'that looks dead'. I'm thinking 'right, that's nought off two balls - see you later, Matt'.
"Then, when the umpire's call came up, I almost looked at Rooty and said: 'Right, it's changed. I'm back. Here we go.' I decided to attack again, and hit that one over the top. That was me off and running, and I felt comfortable from then on in. Ultimately you need a bit of luck as well, I don't feel I had much over the last year and that second-ball decision going my way was maybe the thing that turns it around again."
It had been clear from shortly after Prior was dropped that the England hierarchy were eager to get him straight back into the side after he had had time to reflect on what caused his problems of the previous 12 months. Jos Buttler's one-day form - notably his breathtaking 121 off 74 balls at Lord's - created strong support for his promotion, although that came more from fans that selectors and management.
"Nah," Prior said with a smile when asked if he had felt any doubt after Buttler's hundred, before adding: "Of course, whenever you are out of the team you are watching other performances and that was phenomenal, absolutely, but in sport you can have very short memories as well. I've had a rough year but the three or four years before that I'd played some pretty good cricket and I know what I bring to the team.
"When people put faith in you, you do feel a certain pressure to back them up," he added. "I certainly want to do that. But there was a reason why they did put faith in me."

We fed the tarpon and eat lunch in the restaurant. We also browsed through the many shops and enjoyed the live music. But, the most fun was the jet ski excursion we took. One of our favorite experiences during our time in the Keys.
Robbies was awesome! My fiance and I decided to feed the tarpon fish first, it was a neat experience and it was really cheap! $1 per person and $3 for a bucket of fish if you want it. We then went kayaking, and had a really nice guy, Vince, help us out. He explained all about the path and what...
Great day on the water jet skiing. Water was a bit rough....but Ian was great. He was very patient and knowledgable. Recommend 2 hour ski tour which included kayaking in the mangroves.
It was a hard decision as to whether to review Robbie's as an attraction or restaurant! It really is both. We drive down to Key West from the West Coast of Florida a couple of times a year, sometimes staying in Islamorada or, like this time, staying in Key West, but we ALWAYS stop at Robbie's. Did not eat there...
Was so fun and we caught 8-10 fish each in the 2.5 hours spent fishing! Mates are great, they take fish off the hook for you. Easy laid back fun fishing trip!
We stopped in to watch others feed the fish. They charged a $1 each to watch and more for a bucket of bait to feed the fish. Very interesting and fun. They also had a shopping area with artists and vendors. We didn't try the restaurant.
A great little spot for breakfast/lunch. Take it for what it is - rustic. Sit in the shade with a drink. Eat first and entry to feed the fish is free. Very entertaining watching but have a go yourself. A handful of craft/souvenir stalls. Restrooms basic. Lots of free parking.
Robbie's was one stop on our way to the Keys...it has a rustic charm, funky directional signs and other photo ops and vendors/artists. The buckets of fish to feed the Tarpons with is adequate and the entire experience was exciting! I for one was intimidated by the tarpons so I opted for photographing others while they were crazy enough to...
Great, low keys vibes, collection of vendors. Look for the great artist, that airbrushes pictures on site. Other vendors are unbelievable low priced, but have cool items.
My family had a tremendous experience at Robbies, where we took a jet ski tour and paddle board tour. Both were well done and the personnel at Robbies were very helpful and ensured we had a great time. Specifically Vince did an over and above job getting my family ready to paddle board, especially my 9 year old. Truly a...

We talked about these details during this week's CrackBerry.com Podcast, but in case you're not a listener it seems worthy of a dedicated post. Good 'ole Boy Genius posted some more information on the BlackBerry Thunder this week, following up on the awesome photo that surfaced on Sunday. The new details:
VZW makes me cringe...
At least it looks cool.
Now people wont be able to flip that AT&T hordes the Touchy goodness.
Now we can say it about VZW too.
Probably on the Virtual Keyboard?
VZW may make you cringe but they didnt have to merge with AT&T (Cingluar) to get out from behind a lousy reputation. Or was it a Cingular buy out. VZW is one of the few companies that has not had to merge with other companies like Sprint and Nextel to stay afloat I wonder why is? Hmmmm. As far as typing there are a couple rumors first I've heard is the will be a slide out keyboard, or and since it came from a very reliable source at VZW, the keyboard will be touch also.
What does merging have to do with cringe factor?
The likelihood of a Slideout in my opinion is unlikely.
Especially if the above picture is **somewhat** accurate.

switching means for applying cathode heater current to said arc lamp coincidentally with the energization of said voltage source and coacting with said sensor means to terminate flow of cathode heater curent when said anode current attains substantially normal value.
13. A method of starting and operating a deuterium arc lamp of the type having an anode, cathode and cathode heater means in an analytical instrument comprising:
applying a starting voltage to the arc lamp,
providing cathode heater current to bring the cathode to arcing heat no earlier than the application of starting voltage so as to start the lamp, and
providing running anode arc current to said lamp upon starting and terminating cathode heater current.
14. The method of claim 13 which comprises sensing anode current and terminating cathode heater current responsive to sensing running anode current.
15. The method of claim 13 wherein applying a starting voltage comprises applying a low energy starting voltage sufficient to strike an arc when the cathode is hot while generating only a low starting energy transient.
This invention relates to spectrophotometers and, more specifically, to a specialized low cost power supply system for starting, running and controlling a deuterium arc lamp (D2 lamp) commonly used as a UV source for a spectrophotometer.
The use of the now well-known hot cathode deuterium arc lamp (D2 lamp) as a near UV source for a spectrophotometer is common. This lamp requires four hundred volts or more for the arc to strike, yet when running the arc current must be kept very constant, typically at 300 mA, with an arc voltage drop of about 70 to 90 V. In addition, to strike the arc, additional power, for instance 1 A. at 10 V., must be supplied to the cathode heater to raise the cathode temperature enough to establish an adequate arc plasma. The arc, once struck, will keep the cathode hot, hence, this external power should then be switched off to prevent the cathode from overheating.
All these operating power requirements have in the past been supplied by special power supplies. A typical supply might be built up of a high voltage supply, a running voltage supply, a low voltage high current supply and various relays, timers and regulating circuits to control these supplies in the proper sequence and manner. Conventionally, the regulating circuit for anode current has been of the analog type, utilizing a series pass transistor for control. Such a circuit normally has low efficiency because of the resistance loss in the series control transistor. This loss appears as heat which must be dissipated in a heat sink of substantial size requiring good ventilation, an arrangement necessitating a fairly bulky supply structure. The size, cost and losses of these combinations places high demands on the equipment group for the spectrophotometer.
The development of a new, low cost, photodiode array spectrophotometer set up a demand for a drastically smaller, higher efficiency regulated power supply for the D2 lamp source.
One of the prior problems was associated with the traditional requirement of heating the D2 lamp cathode before applying the high starting voltage to the anode. This was usually effected by using a timing circuit or relay for switching on power to the cathode heater so that the cathode reaches a red heat before the starting voltage is applied. The philosophy of this prior art has been, that applying starting voltage to an unheated cathode would shorten the lamp life by erosion of the cathode emitting layer. In most cases timing circuits or relays also were used to switch off the heater current after the lamp was running, since the arc drop was capable of keeping the cathode hot. Such timing device were costly and bulky.
Unexpectedly, we have found the prior art concept of preheating the cathode to be not only unnecessary but also inadvisable. It can be shown that applying starter voltage to a cold cathode before the lamp has started will not damage the cathode since no current is flowing. Research at M.I.T., resulting in the invention of the dispenser cathode by E. A. Coomes, showed that deterioration of the cathode emitting material is due primarily to heavy arc current. If the cathode is heated without arc current flowing, the arc will strike when the temperature reaches a value high enough to supply sufficient ions for the arc, and no deterioration of the cathode will result. Once the arc strikes the heater current can be switched off to prevent the cathode from being overheated. According to the present invention, this starting sequence is effected through solid state sensor and switching means without timers or relays, thus reducing sharply both the cost and the size of the circuitry.
The present application is directed to a novel switching type power supply, which successfully accomplishes the objectives set forth.
It is an object of this invention to provide power supply. means driven by a low dc voltage input.
It is a further object that said supply means generate a low current, high voltage output adequate to start a D2 lamp when its cathode is hot.
It is a further object that said supply means also generate a closely regulated medium current output of proper value to run said D2 lamp.
It is yet a further object that said supply means deliver a high current, low voltage to heat the cathode of said D2 lamp subsequent to the application of the starting voltage, this heater current being terminated when the lamp has started and reached self-heating stability.
It is also an objective that all components of this supply means be solid state and multi-functional insofar as practical to minimize number, size and cost.
It is also an objective that this supply means be switchable on or off by a TTL or equivalent command.
It is also an objective that all components be mountable on a single small printed circuit board.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent from the following detailed description and accompanying drawings.
The basic high voltage generator of the power supply means of this invention comprises a low loss inductor connected in series with a switching transistor. When the transistor switch is closed, i.e. low resistance, current flows through the inductor from a low voltage dc supply to ground, setting up a magnetic field near saturation in the inductor core. When the transistor switch opens the magnetic field collapses inducing a high voltage across the inductor winding. This voltage also appears across the open switch and may be passed through a diode to charge a storage capacitor to many times the supply voltage. Such a system is used to provide the running voltage for the D2 lamp.
To provide the lamp starting voltage, about four times greater, a cascade diode-capacitor multiplier is also fed from the basic generator.
The periodic switching of the basic generator in the preferred embodiment is driven by the pulse output of a Regulating Pulse Width Modulator (PWM). This solid state monolithic integrated circuit furnishes rectangular single polarity pulses at a constant frequency to the base of the switching transistor. The pulse width or duty factor can be varied from essentially zero to about 90% of the pulse period by varying the voltage on a control pin of the PWM. This makes it possible to control the power supply output by feedback from a current sensing circuit in the D2 lamp anode lead. Likewise protective voltage limiting during the starting time or in case of lamp extinction can be similarly provided. The sensing circuit, working through a coacting auxiliary switching circuit, also provides means to control the external cathode heating current during the lamp start period and to remove this current during run operation of the lamp.
Both the starting voltage supply and the running voltage supply build up together rapidly when a TTL ON command is applied to energize the PWM output circuit. This TTL command also switches on heating current to the D2 lamp cathode. Because of the protective voltage limiting circuit the starting voltage will not be able to strike the arc in the lamp until the cathode comes up to adequate ionizing temperature. The small energy storage capacity of the capacitors in the starting multiplier circuit prevents local damage to the cathode surface during arc strike by keeping the starting energy transient low as the voltage plunges from starting voltage to running voltage level. The running voltage, being feedback controlled, automatically adjusts at once to set the proper arc current and maintain it. Any initial large surge in the anode current is thus minimized. The low starting energy transient also minimizes the possibility of introducing stray pickup spikes into the digital measurement and command circuits of the spectrophotometer. Elaborate transient filters in the supply leads are thus made unnecessary. This novel combination of a voltage limited, low energy capacity starting supply and a feedback controlled running supply has been demonstrated to provide the above features without the use of prior art preheating circuits for the cathode and their associated timing devices and relays.
There has thus been outlined rather broadly the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are, of course, additional features of the invention that will be described more fully hereinafter. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception on which this disclosure is based may readily be utilized as the basis of the defining of other assemblies and routines for carrying out the various purposes of the invention. It is important, therefore, that this disclosure be regarded as including such equivalent assemblies and routines as do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.
One embodiment of the invention has been chosen for purposes of illustration and description, and is shown in the accompanying drawings forming a part of the specification.
FIG. 1, is a block diagram of the preferred embodiment of the invention; and
FIG. 2, is a wiring schematic representation of the preferred embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the invention wherein an externally derived power input of 24 Vdc is supplied to a variable output switching voltage converter 1. The switching converter delivers an output voltage in the form of periodic pulses having a maximum noload peak voltage limited to 120 V. These pulses have a period, which may conveniently be 50 μsec. The output voltage is delivered to two power supplies through conductors 2 and 4. The starting supply is a voltage multiplier storage circuit 3 for developing a noload peak voltage of 480 Vdc for starting the arc in the D2 lamp. The running current supply is a high energy capacity rectifier storage circuit 5 for supplying anode arc current to the lamp. Supply 5 is provided with a secondary output circuit which returns a signal through conductor 6 to converter 1. This circuit limits the noload output voltage of the converter to the maximum peak voltage of 120 V cited above to prevent overvoltaging of the lamp or premature arcing in the lamp. The outputs of supplies 3 and 5 are both connected to a current sensor circuit 7 by conductor 8. The anode current of the D2 lamp 9 passes through this current sensor and is delivered to the D2 lamp, which is in the optical system of the spectrophotometer, by conductor 10. When the D2 lamp is operating in its normal running condition its anode current is 300 mA. Should the anode current vary from this normal value a conductor 11 returns a feedback signal to the converter which restores the anode current to its normal value by means to be clarified hereinafter.
Starting and running of the D2 lamp proceeds automatically when a TTL command signal goes plus through conductor 12 which connects to converter 1. This same command is also conveyed through conductor 13 to a heater switching circuit 14. When the TTL signal goes plus, current from a secondary external 12 Vdc power source 15 provides heat to the cathode 16 of the D2 lamp through conductor 18. The lamp starts when the cathode temperature rises to about red heat. Establishment of anode current through the D2 lamp sends a voltage command through conductor 17 to the heater switching circuit, resulting in switching off the cathode heating current to prevent overheating.
Should the lamp power be interrupted momentarily, restoration will cause the starting cycle to repeat automatically.
Referring now to FIG. 2, the switching voltage converter includes a regulating pulse width modulator 21 supplied with 24 Vdc power from an external power source. The pulse width modulator (PWM) of the preferred embodiment may be a commercial type such as, for example, an LM3524 made by National Semiconductor, Inc , or an equivalent thereof Significant commercial pin connection numbers for the PWM are shown in FIG. 2. For example, the 24 Vdc input power is connected by conductor 22 to pin 15. In addition the 24 Vdc input power is connected to an inductor 25. The other end 26 of the winding of this inductor is connected to the collector 27 of a switching transistor 24, the emitter 23 of which is grounded. This transistor may be, for example, an RFP8 (N20L) NPN type or an appropriate equivalent. The base of transistor 24 is connected to pins 12 and 13 of the PWM which are the pulse output terminals. The output pulses are alternate, rectangular +5 V pulses having a period of about 50 microseconds as set by an oscillator in the PWM and by a 2K resistor 28 and a 0.025 μF capacitor 29 connected to pins 6 and 7, respectively. The output pulses have a variable pulse width controllable, as will be discussed later, from 0 to 90% of the period. These pulses may also be turned on or off by a voltage signal applied to pin 10 of the PWM.
When the base of transistor 24 is driven to +5 V by a pulse, the transistor will become "ON", i.e., it switches the end 26 of the inductor 25 to within a volt of ground potential. The current through the inductor will rapidly rise to a maximum high value limited only by the circuit and source resistances. A typical inductor comprises a ferrite ring core wound as a toroid with about 100 turns of wire which may be No. 18 B&S gage. Such an inductor may have an inductance of nominally 500 mH. The specific requirement is that the magnetic field of this inductor shall collapse within about 2.5 microseconds when the pulse voltage drops to ground (zero volts) level on the base of the transistor, thus generating an inductive voltage peak of 120 V or more across the inductor winding. This voltage pulse is used to charge the capacitors in the starting and running voltage sections of the power supply.
The running voltage supply 5 comprises a fast recovery diode 31 such as, for example, a MUR840 or equivalent which passes the inductive energy pulse to a 580 μF storage capacitor 32. The charge-up time of this capacitor when the PWM 21 is first turned on by a +5 V TTL signal applied to pin 10 is about 20 to 50 msec. depending on the characteristics of the inductor 25. The charge-up voltage is prevented from exceeding 120 V, noload, by a limiter circuit comprising a voltage divider 33 having a 10 K resistor 34 in series with a 20 ohm resistor 35. The junction point of this divider is tied to pin 5 of the PWM by conductor 6 at which pin a plus voltage of about 200 mV will reduce the output pulse width of the PWM to substantially zero, thus shutting off the charging of capacitor 32. The reason for this limiter will be clarified presently.
The starting voltage supply 3 comprises, for example, a conventional four stage multiplier including four 1N4004 diodes 36 and four 0.04 μF/1 kV capacitors 37. Diode 42 (1N4004) blocks the starting voltage from the running voltage supply section 5. The starting circuit is supplied with the same inductive energy pulses as the running voltage supply through conductor 2, and hence must take the same charge-up time although the stored energy at voltage limiting is a couple of orders of magnitude less. Small capacitors are used in the starting circuit to minimize possible erosion of the lamp cathode coating 16 by the current surge when the arc strikes. As pointed out above, the lamp strikes when its cathode reaches approximately a red heat, a condition caused by a cathode heater which is supplied with power through the conductor 18 from the switching circut 14. An op-amp 19 causes the base of switching transistor 20 to go plus when the TTL ON command is received through conductor 13. The op-amp 19 may be an LM358; the transistor 20 may be an RFP8 or equivalent. Diode 30 (1N4004) protects the switching circuit from heater voltage kick-back during striking surges. Cathode temperature rise takes approximately a second or two; once the lamp strikes the anode current will maintain adequate cathode temperature by ion bombardment. At striking, the anode voltage of the lamp drops rapidly from 480 V to about 70 to 90 V, the running voltage at the normal anode current of 300 mA. During this anode voltage decay, the anode current is momentarily above normal, a condition which would degenerate the cathode coating, as has been previously stated, unless the striking pulse is kept short. Hence, small capacitors are used in the starting supply to minimize starting pulse length.
Control of the anode current and of the cathode heater current is provided by the anode current sensor 7. The drop in the 5.5 ohm resistor 38 supplies current through the 22 ohm resistor 39 to the LED of an opto-electronic coupler 40 which may be a H11B1 or equivalent. The current flow through the phototransistor of the coupler causes a voltage drop across a resistance divider 41. Conductor 17 goes plus shutting off the cathode heater current through action of the heater. switching circuit 14. A variable voltage, controlled by anode current value, is supplied from divider 41 through conductor 11 to pin 2 of the PWM. The variable voltage effects a feedback control by altering the output pulse width of the PWM. An increase of pulse width, for example, increases the charging rate of capacitor 32, thus increasing the voltage supplied to the anode of the D2 lamp through the conductor 8, hence in this case the lamp current would rise. Decrease of the pulse width on the contrary would reduce lamp running voltage and current. Thus, this feedback stabilizes and maintains the anode current accurately at its nominal value.
Although a certain particular embodiment of the invention has been disclosed herein for purposes of explanation, various modifications thereof, after study of the specification, will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains, and reference should accordingly be had to the appended claims in determining the scope of the invention.

Great tour...bring your own headphones.
Bericht von: Tracy L, November 2014 Englisch
Good tour! Tour Guide really knowledgeable. You don't get to go on all of lower floor only a small part when you buy the lower and third floor access add on. Going to the top floor and middle stage floor was great though. Got some great pictures that you wouldn't normally get on normal tour or on your own. Only complaint is your time is limited in each area and you might not see things from other angles. The tour of the Capitol and the other ancient Rome areas was very good to have a guide to help you know what you are looking at.
Bericht von: cashdjd, November 2014 Englisch
We really enjoyed this tour and the special attention the Tour Guide gave us. He had a great sense of humour and his English was excellent. Our tour started at 3pm which was a great time of day - past the busy period and finished up in time for us to go out for a nice dinner at a restaurant nearby the Coliseum. There is a lot of walking and steps on this tour - so be prepared. The Ancient Rome portion was after the Coliseum and was really interesting and worth doing. The views of the city are breathtaking. At the conclusion of the tour our Guide even offered to continue his commentary as we headed for the exists - he just couldn't resist telling us more about the sites!
Just remember that for this Tour, the Guide meets you immediately above the Coliseum Subway station in a small park/square - don't head over to the Coliseum entrance directly.

Our guide Mariella is an archaeologist, she speaks first class English and treated us all to a very enjoyable, fact filled tour of the Colosseum, the Forum and Palatine Hill. She was excellent. There are regular photo opportunities and all questions are welcomed and answered. Despite how busy it was at no time were we pressurised or rushed. I would highly recommend taking this tour as not only will you beat the crowds and get 'rock star' treatment as you enter past the queuing masses, you will learn a lot and have a fine time doing so.
Bericht von: Angel V, November 2014 Spanish
Excelente tour, muy informativo y completo. La guía verdaderamente conocía la historia del Coliseo y los demás monumentos que visitamos y se ve que disfrutaba el poder compartir esa información con nosotros. Aunque habíamos solicitado el tour en español cuando lo compramos este nos fue dado en inglés. No tuvimos problemas porque también lo hablamos pero para alguna otra persona que este considerando comprarlo téngalo en cuenta.

No one will say why.
"This is a personnel matter handled by the administration," Gary Haynes said in a text message reply to The IND's questions. "Therefore I'm not at liberty to comment."
Boudreaux, who joined the office in October 1992, according to Lafayette City-Parish Attorney Michael Hebert, earns $20.50 per hour. That's $3,200 per month, meaning she's been paid roughly $32,000 to sit home.The IND filed a public records request with Hebert for information pertaining to the employment status of Boudreaux.
Below is what Hebert had to say:
We decline to provide information in response to the remainder of your request, on the following grounds. [I]nitiation of Laura Boudreaux's administrative leave, the reasons why she is still on administrative leave, and the status of her reinstatement are exempt from disclosure due to the right to privacy established by Article 1, Section 5 of the Louisiana Constitution."LCG generally applies the same policies for both classified and unclassified employees, except where the nature of the civil service system dictates otherwise," Hebert says.
Page 9 of Lafayette Consolidated Government's Policy and Procedure Manual 261-6 is where the ins and outs of administrative leave are explained for LCG employees, both civil service and non-civil service. The rules read:
• An employee may be granted administrative leave pending an administrative investigation when the Appointing Authority has reason to believe that the employee has engaged in conduct that, if confirmed, would warrant disciplinary action, and the employee's continued presence at work during the investigation of the suspected conduct would be contrary to the best interest of LCG.
• The employee shall be given written notice of the administrative leave granted pending investigation and the reasons therefor. The employee shall also be advised that he/she is restricted to confinement to his/her residence during normal working hours. If the employee leaves his/her residence for personal business, the employee must receive prior approval of the Department Director or designee.
• Administrative leave shall be with pay and shall not exceed 30 calendar days without the prior approval of the Department Director.
• The Director of Civil Service may allow administrative leave to be extended for up to 30 additional calendar days upon the Appointing Authority's written request and reason(s) therefore.
• Upon completion of the investigation, the employee and the Department Director shall be advised of the outcome.
• Administrative leave is not a disciplinary action and is only appealable if the basis for the appeal is discrimination or a violation of these rules.
So, in order to keep the paychecks coming, all Boudreaux has to do is make sure she doesn't leave home during work hours, unless of course she gets prior approval from the director of her department. At least that should have been the case for the first 30 days, as appears to be stipulated by LCG policy. The policy, though, does allow for an extension after the first 30 days — considering the department director approves — but only for an additional 30 days, no more. The policy clearly states "up to."
Hebert confirms he is Boudreaux's department director but would not say the reason so many extensions have been granted or what in the policy and procedure manual allows him to do this.
That must mean Boudreaux is a special case; as of today, she's been on what amounts to a vacation for nearly 10 months.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Line of fire
Ladd, Little, Wheeler lighting it up for Jets
It would be corny and melodramatic to say the chemistry was instant or magical, or that Andrew Ladd, Bryan Little and Blake Wheeler were somehow destined to be united by the mystical gods of hockey.
But the first time the three stepped onto the ice together as linemates -- Feb. 19, 2011 in a 5-3 Atlanta Thrashers loss to the Oilers in Edmonton -- there was definitely something that began percolating between the three.
Wheeler had been traded from Boston to Atlanta in a trade-deadline deal two days previous -- a swap that also brought Mark Stuart aboard -- and was immediately put on the right flank of Ladd and Little.
"You know, it's funny," said Ladd this week, "we had be playing with Peverley before and after the trade they kind of threw us together. And right away we clicked pretty good."
Still, the new combination essentially thrust three men into roles and responsibilities they were not really accustomed to at the NHL level. Ladd had carved out a place -- and won two Stanley Cups -- in the league as a responsible two-way winger with both Carolina and Chicago. Little had first broken into the NHL on a Thrashers squad that featured the likes Ilya Kovalchuk, Marian Hossa and Vyacheslav Kozlov.
And Wheeler arrived after battling for ice time on a stacked Bruins' squad that just a few months later would capture a Stanley Cup.
There were many nights, last season in particular, when the weight of those duties -- and being matched up against top checking lines or defensive pairings -- on a Jets team desperate for goals seemed daunting and overwhelming.
And as Jets coach Claude Noel attempted to find more scoring from more lines there were games, as recently as earlier this season, when the trio was busted up -- seemingly for good.
But let's toss this out right now for debate: For all the discussion last year about whether Ladd-Little-Wheeler was a legit No. 1 line, there is a growing consensus now about what they are morphing into -- a deadly and dominant trio.
Consider that in the six games since the NHL treadline, five of them Jet wins as Winnipeg continues a push for a playoff spot, Ladd (four goals, eight assists), Little (1G, 8A) and Wheeler (3G, 7A) have combined for more points than any other line in the NHL.
And one more nugget: In a scan of the NHL's top trios -- as provided by the website dailyfaceoff.com -- the Ladd-Little-Wheeler line has combined for the fifth-most points in the league this season with 41 goals and 71 assists for 112 points.
"There's that thing that you really can't put your finger on," said Wheeler when asked to explain their chemistry. "It just kinda works when you play well with certain guys and things go well.
"It takes all of the thinking out of the game and it makes it a lot easier to be out there with each other. You don't have to think where somebody's going to be, you just know where they're going to be and that confidence just helps you play at a different level sometimes."
What the line offers the Jets -- and, in turn, gives opponents fits -- is a tasty combination of skills. Ladd has an underrated shot and hands and is willing to do a lot of the grunt work; Little is a crafty setup man who sees the ice like a point guard in basketball and Wheeler is a 6-5 winger with world-class speed and finish.
"We've got a great mix, I think, a little bit of everything," said Ladd. "But at the end of the day I really think the key is how we use each other out there.
"We're three guys that like to use other players on the ice and we understand that it makes it easier on each other when you are moving the puck. When you have that understanding, it makes it that much easier to play hockey."
That's about as in-depth explanation as any of the three men will provide as to what makes their chemistry suffice. And, truth be known, they don't waste a whole lot of grey matter analyzing it all.
It's working. Enough said.
"We just have a natural chemistry," said Little with a shrug. "There's not a whole lot to say other than that. Sometimes when you're put with guys, there's a feeling-out process where you have to get used to playing with each other and it takes awhile for that chemistry to come. But for us, it seems like ever since we were put together we've had that natural chemistry where things have been going pretty well.
"All I know is right now when those two guys are both shooting the puck so well, when they're going this good, I just want to get the puck on their tape."

Prize-winning poet Jack Gilbert dead at age 87
Jack Gilbert, a prize-winning poet known for his clear and subtle verse, has died at age 87.
The Associated Press
Jack Gilbert, a prize-winning poet known for his clear and subtle verse, has died at age 87.
Publisher Alfred A. Knopf announced that Gilbert died Tuesday in Berkeley, Calif., after suffering for years from Alzheimer's disease.
His many honors included the Yale Younger Poets prize for his 1962 debut, "Views of Jeopardy," and a National Book Critics Circle award for "Refusing Heaven." The Pittsburgh native also wrote the novels "My Mother Taught Me" and "Forever Ecstasy."
Gilbert was a private man who rarely attended book parties or gave readings. He wrote often about Pittsburgh and his childhood, food and sex, and personal pain. His "Collected Poems" came out in March and was praised by The New York Times as among the year's "most important" poetry books.

One of my earliest arena-concert memories was of seeing Bad Company on the Run with the Pack Tour at Vancouver's Pacific Coliseum back in the spring of '76, I think it was. The opening act was a prog-leaning rock band from Kansas called Kansas, who I remember most because they had a violin player.
This was just a few months before the release of Leftoverture, which included the huge hit "Carry on Wayward Son", which I've never gotten tired of hearing. It was the most-played track on classic rock radio in 1997, so I'm not alone in my fondness for the killer guitar riff delivered by composer Kerry Livgren.
Thirty years ago this Sunday--on November 23, 1984--Nazareth played the Commodore Ballroom, touring behind its new album The Catch.
In advance of the show I interviewed frontman Dan McCafferty and--among other things--got the scoop on the story behind the group's curious single, "Vancouver Shakedown".
Here's a slightly condensed version of the piece that appeared in the Nov. 23-30 issue of the Straight.
So I was checking out my Twitter account on the commute home last night and I noticed that my number of followers had blasted up from 1435 to an impressive fourteen-hundred and thirty-six. My new follower was a guy named Niro Knox, who looked like a pretty rockin' dude.
So I took a gander at some of his tweets and found one labelled "Guitar Solo" that was a link to a year-old YouTube video he'd posted. It's just him riffing out on a goldtop Les Paul, but as he soon as he hit a note it reminded me of Gary Moore, so I immediately followed him back.
That is all.
I finally got around to checking out the nominees for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's class of 2015 and, lemme tell ya, that institution has developed its most severe case of HUA (Head Up Ass) Syndrome yet.
Okay, firstly, let's rattle off the nominees: Green Day, Nine Inch Nails, N.W.A., Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Lou Reed, the Smiths, the Spinners, Sting, Chic, Kraftwerk, the Marvelettes, Bill Withers, War, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and the Paul Butterfield Blues Band.
Told ya it was embarassing!
From that lame-ass batch, the only ones worthy of nomination in my books are Jett, Reed, Butterfield, and Vaughan.
Fvck Chic.
There's no denying that the vast majority of rock 'n' roll animals heading to the sold-out Rogers Arena this Friday night will be huge fans of Mötley Crüe, which is performing on its heavily publicized "Final Tour".
But I doubt I'll be the only one going there to revel in the killer tunes and theatrical shock-rock shenanigans of "special guest" Alice Cooper.
AC/DC just released the title track of its upcoming album, Rock or Bust, which is due out December 2.
Sounds like AC/DC to me, with or without Malcolm Young.
It's no "Shoot to Thrill", but then again, what is?
Whaddya think?
Thirty years ago today–on November 16, 1984–the Jacksons Victory Tour hit B.C. Place Stadium for the first of three shows.
For some reason, I went.
Here's my unspectacular review from the Nov. 23-30 issue of the Straight.
The biggest show in the history of pop music came to Vancouver last week, in the form of the Jacksons' Victory Tour.
It was a dazzling display of lights and lasers, mechanized staging and slick choreography, available to anyone who wanted to shell out $40–and in three nights 107,000 fans did just that.
Just heard some great news in a tweet from one of my fave authors, hardboiled Texas mystery/suspense ace Joe R. Lansdale. He's the guy who wrote the story that became one of my fave all-time horror flicks, Bubba Ho-Tep.
Turns out two of my fave characters of his--Hap Collins and Leonard Pine, from the Hap and Leonard books--are coming to the small screen next year.
Can I get a "Fvckin-AAA!"
Ah, there's nothing like a brand spankin' (emphasis on the spankin') new promotional YouTube video put together by that Friend of the Newt, former gonzo Nerve contributor, bon vivant, Nugent fan, and generally rockin' dude Carl "The Spackle King" Spackler.
The latest celluloid masterpiece the Spackman concocted with all his retro wiles and '70s-style righteousness is meant to shamelessly plug the next gig his band La Chinga is playing, with Spoon River and headliner No Sinner at the Rickshaw on November 21.
Just a day after AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd was charged with "procuring a murder" by New Zealand police, the shocking charges have been dropped.
It's a good thing, too, because media all around the world were running out of ways to work the title of AC/DC's vengeance-for-hire ditty "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" into the story.
According to the New Zealand Herald, the 60-year-old rocker's lawyer, Paul Mabey, issued a statement announcing the about-face by authorities.

Jason Kendall becomes fifth player to catch 2,000 games
Jul 27, 2010, 5:56 PM EST
Last night, while the Royals were giving up 19 runs in a blowout loss to the Twins, Jason Kendall became the fifth player in baseball history to appear in 2,000 games at catcher.
Ivan Rodriguez is the all-time leader with 2,351 games caught (and counting), followed by Carlton Fisk (2,226), Bob Boone (2,225), Gary Carter (2,056), and now Kendall.
Kendall said that he plans to "keep going until someone takes the uniform off me" and he's under contract to the Royals next season for $3.75 million as part of a two-year, $6 million deal signed this winter.
In other words, there's a pretty good chance contemporaries Rodriguez and Kendall will end up ranked first and second in games caught.
- diehardroyalsfan - Jul 27, 2010 at 6:55 PM
The only reason he made it to 2000 this year is because the royals were stupid enough to offer him a starting job. He wouldnt be starting anywhere else. I drove 3 hours to see the royals play the A's, royals down 4-5 bottom of the 9th with a runner on 3rd with two outs and this jerkoff strikes out. He is hitting in the 2 spot! But it's all good because I got a free hat out of it because first 20,000 fans get a hat, right? Nope! Instead of trying to get people in the seats by giving away some piece of crap every night just put a good product on the field. World series in 1985 I was born in 88, somebody explain why I care so much..

I once read a memoir written by a woman who grew up in the Australian desert. It had been a very dry season and everything was completely dormant. Then, for the first time in months, it rained. The plants were ready; they had evolved to live in climates like this. They took the water and sprung up, some of them shooting up two or three feet literally overnight. The girl woke up and saw a beautiful jungle where the day before there had been desert.
