Pakistan had not chased a target of more than 250 successfully since February 2011. They came close today, but collapsed in a heap
Karthik Krishnaswamy in Fatullah
February 25, 2014

News : 'Batsmen should have finished better' - Misbah
Features : Lakmal versus Akmal
Report : Malinga five-for cuts Pakistan short
Matches: Pakistan v Sri Lanka at Fatullah
Series/Tournaments: Asia Cup
Teams: Pakistan
When teams face challenging targets, sometimes all it takes for the chase to swing decisively their way is a couple of big overs. Clinical finishers recognise this and bat sensibly, turning the strike over and putting away bad balls, even as the required rate mounts. They know the pressure will tell on the bowling side. They know the big overs will come.
Having come together with 176 required off 159 balls, Misbah-ul-Haq and Umar Akmal were approaching the chase of 296 in just that spirit. They rotated strike, and picked off bad balls, and had put on 61 in 69 deliveries when they took the batting Powerplay. Pakistan, at that stage, needed 115 from 90.
The five Powerplay overs brought Misbah and Akmal 33 runs. Only 14 of these runs came in boundaries, each of which was either the result of poor bowling or calculated risk. Misbah flicked a leg stump half-volley from Lasith Malinga past short fine leg and dumped a flighted delivery from Sachithra Senanayake, with the turn, over deep midwicket. Akmal gave himself room to launch the spinner past the unmanned deep extra-cover boundary.
Those 33 runs brought the equation down to 82 from 60. Both batsmen, by now, were well set. In the first post-Powerplay over, Akmal hammered Suranga Lakmal for two fours and a six, going past 50 in the process. In the next over, he lofted left-arm spinner Chaturanga de Silva over extra cover and late-cut him virtually from within the keeper's gloves, to pick up two more fours.
The two big overs had arrived. The momentum had swung Pakistan's way. The stadium was only a third full, but most of that crowd seemed to be supporting Pakistan. Their chants filled the air. Their team now needed just 57 from 48.
Most teams in the world that need 57 from 48 balls, with six wickets in hand and two half-centurions at the crease, would go on to win comfortably. With Pakistan, however, you never quite know. And this isn't just recourse to the 'mercurial Pakistan' stereotype.
Since February 2011, when Misbah scored an unbeaten 93 to guide them to a two-wicket win chasing 263 in Napier, Pakistan had lost every time when chasing a target in excess of 250 - 11 matches. In Fatullah they were in a position to end that unwanted streak. They needed 57 from 48, with six wickets in hand. Misbah was batting on 67, Akmal on 72.
Lakmal had gone for 16 runs in his previous over. Angelo Mathews, the Sri Lanka captain, kept him on. Perhaps he had the inkling of a rash stroke from Akmal, who had exchanged words with Lakmal seven overs before. Third ball of Lakmal's over, Akmal threw a diagonal bat at a wide length ball. Kumar Sangakkara snapped up the edge behind the stumps.
At this point Pakistan needed a batsman with a cool head, a batsman who could bat sensibly, give Misbah the strike and calm things down. In walked Shahid Afridi. He slapped the seventh ball he faced straight into cover's hands.
Three balls later, Misbah holed out. Some situations can get to the coolest of heads. Out of nowhere, Lasith Malinga had two wickets in an over: a wide length ball slapped straight to cover, a length ball on leg stump hoicked to deep square leg. Pakistan were seven down.
They still only needed 43 from 30, and all the Pakistan batsmen who had got out playing silly shots - all the way back to Sharjeel Khan and Sohaib Maqsood earlier in the innings - will have had a sick feeling in their stomachs when two fluky, edged boundaries from Saeed Ajmal brought their target down to 17 from 12.
It wasn't to be, of course, but it could have been, so easily. Instead, Pakistan suffered a 12th straight defeat in a 250-plus chase.
"The way Umar and I had a partnership going, if we had just played out the overs the match was easy," Misbah later said. "Only a wicket could get them back in the game, and that is the mistake we made."

It just seems like it would have to be. But you never know with the dates off slightly.

One of the best ways for an undergraduate student to learn both the process and the content of chemical science is take part in an independent research project. Our faculty members have ongoing research projects that students can work on in their junior or senior year, or sometimes during the summer. Due to the generosity of alumni, we have an endowed fund which we can use to purchase materials and provide stipends to students and faculty during summer research programs. Student research participation is widely recognized as a measure of the quality of an undergraduate chemistry program, and we strive to provide these opportunities for our students.

Facebook To Showcase New Newsfeed On Thursday
Facebook is holding a press event next Thursday at its Menlo Park, California headquarters. We'll be there live blogging the event at 10 Pacific/1 Eastern.
The purpose of the event is to showcase a new look for Facebook's newsfeed. This may be both for mobile and the PC.
According to an earlier article on TechCrunch (discussing mobile), the look of the new feed will be bolder and bigger, with new navigation:
The news feed of the evolved Facebook app I've seen creates separate feeds for a few different content types including news and photos. Users navigate between them by swiping sideways on a photo that serves as a header tile filling the top quarter or so of a portrait layout iPhone screen. Below the header is a larger body tile that takes up most of the rest of the screen. From what I saw, it shows one story at a time, with text and who posted it laid on top of a full-screen image.
We'll see, and we'll be there to bring it to you live.
Postscript: Apparently, a Timeline redesign may be part of the announcements on Thursday. The following image is from a story on Mashable based on a new version of Timeline being tested in New Zealand. There's also some new sharing functionality integrated into Timeline reportedly.

Around 6:45 a.m. inbound on the Braintree side of the world.
Also, there's a switch problem slowing things down outbound on the Worcester Line.
An inbound Orange Line train didn't even make it out of the starting gate at Oak Grove early this morning. Somewhere on the Ashmont branch of the Red Line, an outbound train felt that disturbance in the Force and went over to the dark side.

Death pointed a bony finger at an inbound Red Line train at Charles/MGH shortly before 4 p.m. A trolley on the C Line departed this mortal coil before it could get to Cleveland Circle.
UPDATE: The Blue Line joined the party shortly before 10 a.m., when a train ascended to Valhalla at Wonderland.
Dead inbound train at Quincy Center would be harshing the mellow of Red Line commuters this morning if they weren't busy concentrating on staying warm. An Orange Line train could only make it to Back Bay before departing this mortal coil, but riders from the north... Read more
Around 8:30 p.m. at the rear entrance to the station. The two suspects are described as black, about 18, one wearing an Army jacket and sweatpants, the other wearing a red and black hoodie.
Well, actually, it's not picking up much at all right now, thanks to a southbound train that decided at Charles/MGH it needed a doctor right away.
People coming into Boston from the north are stuck sitting on trains just on the other side of the Charles River bridge thanks to signals that are refusing to signal.

Dead trains at JFK/UMass and Harvard creating all sorts of fun for commuters this morning.
Various commuter-rail lines into North Station also having various issues. The Fitchburg Line has major delays because the 6:55 train hit somebody near Snake Hill Road in Ayer. The MBTA reports the person's injuries are not considered life threatening.
As Rich Davey predicted yesterday, the T has been having problems with the cold this morning. Red Line trains kept dying south of the city, leading to massive delays and eventually bustitution.
Several commuter-rail lines had weather-related delays as well, although, ironically, the Needham Line ran on time.
There's a train at Charles/MGH with door issues.
But not all Red Line trains are stuck. Kat Nicole reports:
Stuck? My Alewife subway car is actually sliding backwards a bit on Longfellow bridge now. Hopefully we scrape across?
Around 2:50 p.m. at Charles/MGH as cops swarmed the station looking for somebody who might have robbed a bank in Central Square.
UPDATE: Cambridge Police report:

No, they won't be counting down to the rockin' New Year tonight, but will tell you how long until the next Red Line train. The T reports they blinked into existence today.
A roving UHub reader just checked in from Downtown Crossing, where a dead train is causing all sorts of ire:
The ire at Downtown Crossing is so strong you could hang your parka on it. "Moderate delays" per automated announcement, but this crowd is overflowing from the platform to the stairs and hallways.
A dead train at Sullivan Square around 8:20 a.m. quickly cascaded into commuting hell for Orange Line riders heading into the city from the north. At Malden, riders were told to

Lindsay Lohan's 'Liz & Dick' Executive Producer Says Working With Her Is 'Not for the Faint of Heart'
Working with Lindsay Lohan creates "serious challenges" around the actress's "reckless and wanton" behavior, and is not recommended "for the faint of heart." And that's according to someone who liked the performance she gave for his project and has a vested interest in its success: The executive producer of her upcoming Lifetime TV movie Liz & Dick.
Larry Thompson spoke to reporters via conference call on Wednesday (a conversation reported in the Washington Post, among others) to promote the Elizabeth Taylor biopic, and while he had praise for Lohan's performance as the Hollywood legend, he framed his kudos in terms that were less than flattering.
Thompson noted that both Taylor and Lohan were child stars who grew up in Hollywood cocoons, alternately sheltered from the real world and exposed to it by swarms of ever-present paparazzi. As a result, he said, both actresses behaved with "a reckless and wanton disregard for the norm," a quality that made them both "fascinating to watch." He added that Lohan "literally at this time in her life knows no boundaries. And that becomes dangerous, that becomes exciting."
That kind of behavior, while "exciting" to watch, can be an ordeal to work with, Thompson noted. "When we finally decided to hire her, we had serious challenges to deal with… due to her probation and her history," Thompson said. "We had to make a deal where there were pages and pages of 'what if' clauses… What if there is a car accident, What if there is a violation of her probation [and] she would be incarcerated. Those 'what ifs' were plenty."
"But through insurance — and I will add she might be the most insured actress who ever walked on a sound stage — we tried to insure ourselves against things that could, and in fact did, happen," he adds
Among the things that did happen: Lohan got into a car wreck, was often late to the set, and on one occasion, didn't wake up from a nap, leading to a 911 call and paramedics rushing to her hotel room to rouse her. "I've certainly worked with actresses whose behavior during production was less problematic than Lindsay," Thompson said.
(Granted, Taylor is widely considered one of the most beautiful women who ever lived, while most everyone else is... not. Still... meow!)Celebuzz's request for a comment on the Thompson interview.
Lohan herself has been very careful about promoting Liz & Dick. She canceled an interview with ABC's Barbara Walters, then agreed to sit for a chat with a TV personality more likely to toss softballs her way, NBC's Jay Leno. Last night, she made a surprise appearance in a sketch on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon but did not stick around for an interview.
Liz & Dick will air on Sunday, Nov. 25 at 9 PM on Lifetime.

Hanfeng (C$1.82, down 7.6%) shares are adding to Thursday's 12% drop after a proposal to take the company private by its chief executive officer was extended to the end of April to allow the purchaser additional time to arrange the required financing.
Quebecor (C$44.79, up 2.6%) shares are recovering some of their 5.2% decline Thursday after fourth-quarter profit plunged and its CEO said he'll step aside. Scotia upgraded the stock one notch to Focus Stock, saying it thinks it's an "excellent" time to buy into the stock.
Temple Hotels (C$5.80, up 6.8%) swung to a profit in 2012 on strong revenue and said funds from operations jumped 29%. It's also projecting "strong earnings growth" this year.

pork tenderloins
2 cloves
garlic, sliced, or more to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
blood oranges, halved
1 cup
fruity white wine, such as sauvignon blanc
1/4 cup
coarsely chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon
1/2 cup
cold water
The meat is fabulous and gobbled up but the gravy wasn't so good - just a bit to acidic and bitter. I think roasting the juiced oranges was a bit too much. Maybe just some of the orange peel and none of the pith would be a lot better.

Grabbed a quick bite at Pizza Express before Cavalia. It's located right next to the metro station. Fast, friendly service and they have seating outside. Prices are reasonable and the pizza is very tasty. If you're in the area, I recommend stopping in for a pizza.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
CherryPie, thanks for the great review! We have several locations around Dubai so you can always enjoy our pizza wherever you are. Hope to see you soon.
I've always liked Pizza Express - consistent worldwide :-). Btw...how was the show? I'm hoping to go next week!
Please sign in to add a comment.
I recently happen to visit Pizza Express near the exhibition halls of DWTC, we were six of us, hungry & exhausted from all day meetings around the town. I had just heard that Pizza Express is good but had never tried the same. We settled for 3 garlic bread with mozzarella for starters. I was assuming 3 will be sufficient as even the priciest of restaurant will serve you minimum 2 pieces of same. Also we ordered Pomodoro Pesto leggera pizza , four seasons pizza , apollo pizza , lasagne & 2 fresco cocktails The service was horrible, the servers were slow and clueless at times. Also I wasn't aware how exactly a' Leggera' pizza will be so I asked the server and he responded to me by saying "its a thin crust pizza" I was really annoyed by that response because I know its a pizza and its mentioned in the menu that it is thin crust so I need some new info which I wasn't given. We kept waiting and waiting for a good 20 plus minutes until I saw the server heading towards us with three small plates of buns..but wait before he moved forward to place the dishes he was been called by the cashier. Without serving us, he rushed towards the lady at the counter. We waited and waited, staring at the decor. Finally our server took pity on us and decided to at least serve us the garlic breads we had ordered. I was startled looking at its size, it was the size of a burger bun.. Was it worth 20dhs? NO WAYS!To add to the wound when the pizza arrived I realized how thin the crust was, more like a roti with minimum toppings unevenly spread across the entire pizza. Taste wise all were just about alright. Also the Lasagne arrived in such a big dish but again the portion was so small, it got over in just few bites. Tasted good though but one dish couldn't compensate for the evening we spent.We paid around 350dhs for terrible service, tasting few dishes & wasting our time. After this we headed to a fast food joint to have more food..
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
We are very sorry you had this experience. We pride ourselves in our delicious food and excellent service. We are constantly improving to create the ultimate dining experience. We hope that if you have returned your opinion was changed. If you have any issues or questions, please feel free to contact us directly at email@example.com.
Unfortunately my opinion hasn't changed. Just prior Ramadan I had visited Al Safa branch, the staff was courteous, but was the food good? Not really, not still up to the mark.
Also after what happened previously I am never visiting the Trade Center branch again. Thanks for your concern anyways.
I've discovered where Pepsi is made in the UAE. It's under Pizza Express at the World Trade Centre. It must be as it takes half an hour to get one.The food is factory made and delivered...and tastes much like any other one of this chains outlets. That's means its fine; nothing special.On my visit there was no manager on duty, we wrote out our own order on a blank sheet of paper, found and stood over a headless waiter...they were all headless...and made sure our order was processed through another one of their inefficient systems.If you pass this restaurant and there are more than two people in it...keep walking.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
We are sorry that this happened to you in our venue. We appreciate any and all feedback as it is the only way to guarantee improvement. We hope that you have given us a second chance and we were able to prove ourselves to you. If you have any questions or other concerns, please contact us directly at email@example.com. We apologize again and hope to hear from you soon.
Hmm...not like Pizza Express in England at all. Not sure if its the pizza bases or the topping but the taste is just lack lustre. I used to love the pizza's in england but not here.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
Jeremy, thank you for your honesty. We have tried very hard to hold up the standard the PizzaExpress has in the UK and over the past year or so have really come far in development. Both in service and food quality. We would love for you to give us another chance! If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at email@example.com. Thank you again for your review, and we hope to change your mind soon.
I've been here once since a colleague of mine told me that they serve very good pizza and the place is close to our office. Indeed it is nice pizza and the servings is just enough for sharing, but the service was really poor. We came after office hours and it was not that busy since only 3 tables were occupied inside the resto. Waiters cant be found around and it would take time for you to call them, worst part is it takes ages for them to assist you. Once you ask for your check dont forget to take a look at your bill because ours have some error on the price of our orders.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
Thank you for the review. We appreciate all feedback to ensure that we can improve in all areas of service. We hope that you have returned since this time and we were able to change your mind! If you have any other concerns or questions please feel free to contact us directly at email@example.com. Thank you.
Thin Light somewhat delicious pizza, ended here for having a voucher deal, buy 1 take 1 it is. If your having some meeting near the area, the place is average for those who is lost around the world trade area, Indoor and outdoor is available and hectic when there are ongoing events at the centre.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
Thank you for your reviews, Charisma. And you are right, we do get quite busy during events but that is all part of the fun! We hope you have returned and enjoyed our delicious menu and tried some of our newer items. Thanks again.
Some people love this chain, I find it average. They have been offering great deals, and if you are utilizing the deal, then it is good value for the price. If I didn't have the deal, then I would probably order from somewhere else.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
ChanMan, thanks for the review! Upon reading another review from you on a separate venue, I trust we have changed your mind. If we are wrong, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com to be able to discuss this matter further.
Fantastic Pizza! If you are at the exhibition for a few days, be sure to try them! I always go there during exhibition days. Better than all the usual pizza places you get, excellent quality and service. Nice staff too.
Pizza Express (Business Owner):
Thank you for your review, LadyLuxe! We are proud to serve to all those participating in the World Trade Center events and more. And of course our staff would not be amazing if we did not have amazing guests to serve. Please enjoy all of our venues in Dubai for the same great service and food.
another great spot at the exhibition place is a grilled sandwich stand.

A new body to drive regional economic development in East Arnhem was officially launched on Friday 21 November by the Northern Territory Government, Rio Tinto Gove Operations and the newly appointed Chairman.
The launch of 'Developing East Arnhem' in Nhulunbuy is an important step in building a strong economic future for the local community with new businesses and industries.
"The launch of Developing East Arnhem today delivers on the joint $4 million commitment by the Northern Territory Government and Rio Tinto to establish an independent body to drive industry and business growth across the region," Chief Minister Adam Giles said.
The entity will be guided by a high calibre foundation Board of Directors, featuring Chairman John Cossons, Andy Lloyd and Ian Smith.
East Arnhem is emerging as a key element of our Northern Australia development agenda, given the region's considerable natural and cultural assets, as well as its strong service and infrastructure base around the regional hub of Nhulunbuy.
Developing East Arnhem will focus on:
Promoting East Arnhem as a business destination
Facilitating business establishment and expansion
Increasing the capability of local industry
Supporting the establishment and growth of Indigenous enterprises.

Close to 600 people turned out for the Chief Minister's Awards for Excellence in the Public Sector at the Darwin Convention Centre on Friday 14 November.
The awards were an opportunity to recognise the innovative and important work being done across government to fast-track land release, diversify our economy, develop Northern Australia, create jobs in our regions, re-engage with Asia, protect our environment and enhance our great Territory lifestyle.
Winners shared in a $100 000 prize-pool donated by the private sector for use on professional development.
The Chief Minister also took the opportunity to announce a package of measures designed to make the Northern Territory Public Sector a more attractive place to work.
The changes included, among other things, the provision of more flexible working hours, the ability for non-essential staff to accrue leave to use over a new Christmas shutdown period, and the simplification of the recruitment process to make it easier to apply for government jobs.For more information, or to view the full list of winners, visit the Chief Minister's Awards website.

Iraq vet in Ohio cited for owning 14 pet ducks
An Iraq war veteran says his ducks are therapeutic. However, the Ohio village where he lives forbids keeping fowl.
The Associated Press
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ohio — An Army veteran who hurt his back during the Iraq war is worried a citation will result in him losing his 14 pet ducks, which he says are therapeutic.
Darin Welker said officials in the village of West Lafayette told him to get rid of the ducks in May and cited him for a minor misdemeanor on June 23 for failing to comply. Walker is scheduled to appear in Coshocton Municipal Court for a hearing Wednesday and could face a $150 fine.
Welker, 36, says the ducks help him with depression and post-traumatic stress disorder and keep him more active.
West Lafayette, about 80 miles east of Columbus, banned residents from keeping fowl and other farm animals in 2010.
Welker told the Coshocton Tribune that he's had the ducks since March. He said they motivate him to get out of the house so he can feed and clean up after them.
"They're quite a relaxing animal, and they help comfort me in different situations," Welker recently told the Tribune as he held one duck like a baby and stroked its neck.
Welker served a year in Iraq with the Army National Guard in 2005 and said he came home with a major back injury that required surgery in 2012.
The Department of Veterans Affairs paid for the back surgery but declined to pay for physical therapy recommended by his surgeon and did not provide him with counseling, he said. That's partly why he has come to rely on the ducks, he said.
Welker said he's planning to tell the judge how much the ducks have helped him. He said he has a letter from the VA's mental-health department recommending he be allowed to keep them.
The 14 ducks live in a penned-in area in Welker's backyard, which also has kiddie pools so they can swim.

text: The great John Lennon album from 1973 – still in an exhilaratingly creative mode with strong Plastic Ono traces, even if the overall effect is more mainstream friendly – ultimately, an album that stands incredibly well on its own, even if its something of a bridge to John's rock and roll years to come! The songs aren't as overtly strident as the ones on Sometime In New York City, but there's plenty of passion bubbling under the surface – and the struggle to be as honest and passionate as he can be without bludgeoning us over the head with his feelings brings an underlying tension the work as whole that's pretty amazing to this day. Includes the great, always emotionally resonant title track plus "Bring On The Lucie", "Nutopian International Anthem", "Intuition", "You Are Here", "Meat City", and "I Know I Know".

Recent Great Lakes reviews
"This was our first trip to Lake Erie as a family - I honestly don't know where to begin because we had such an amazing stay. Lynne was an amazing cottage host -she answered all of our questions immediately (I had a lot of them) and she made suggestions on activities tailored to our family. We had the most beautiful accommodations and scenery - it truly was the serene atmosphere we needed to escape the busy city life! My boys were begging us to stay forever, I wish we could've! Favorite activities: collecting beach glass, painting rocks on the picnic table at sunset, swimming in a creek next to lake, building sandcastles, walking to mazza winery and tasting fabulous wine (the kids tasted sparkling juice!), walking my baby to sleep along the shoreline, a private fishing charter and the best tasting fried fish for dinner that night, and the list goes on! Bottom line - rent from Lynne if you want a five-star feel on a private, rustic beach in the middle of wineries! Thanks Lynne!!!!"Guest: City Family Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: June 25, 2014View listing
"Great place. Plenty of room to relax. Wonderful views, very clean and cozy. Already booked it for next year. Owners are on top of it, and communicate wonderfully."Guest: Joe D. Date of Stay: November 2014 Review Submitted: November 9, 2014View listing
"Last year we stayed in one of the lower apts and our stay was not exactly up to par, however the owners honored their offer for us to stay again this year- this time in the upper apt. Our stay this year was much better! The apt was clean, well stocked and ready upon arrival. The private beach is so nice to have just across the road (I will warn, it is a typical Erie beach-more rocky than sandy- but my kids loved it just the same). The area is quiet and peaceful. The only issue we had during our stay was a problem with the water heater which was resolved quickly even on a sunday morning. The apt is comfortable and while you don't get very good cell service or sometimes not at all, the wifi is quite fast! This is a nice get away for families or anyone really!"Guest: family vacation Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: July 27, 2014View listing
"We stayed here last year and loved it so much we came back again this year! The house is right on the lake (beautiful sunsets) and the sound of the water at all hours is totally relaxing. The house is very well stocked with everything you could possible need. Don't forget to bring sheets and towels, but there are plenty of pots and pans, dishes, mugs, etc. The sunporch is wonderful for sitting, reading, jig saw puzzles, or just watching the water. The deck is a great place for that early morning coffee. The lake is RIGHT THERE if you are up for water activities. The sand and beaches of Presque Isle are just a couple miles down the road. Presque isle has wonderful walking/biking paths and a couple of us were feeling energetic, so we rented one of those bicycles with the full seat and canapy overhead. We spent as much time laughing as we did peddling. Erie, proper, is just a few miles away with plenty of things to do. We went to the zoo and the Station Dinner Theater; did some shopping, some sightseeing, some just hanging out. So, if you want a house right on the lake that is just WONDERFUL... this is the place for you!"Guest: Ginny S. Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: June 25, 2014View listing
Great Lakes Travel Tips
The Great Advantages of Great Lakes Vacation Rentals
The Great Lakes area is in the northwest corner of the state of Pennsylvania, bordering Lake Erie, one of the Great Lakes. This friendly area has plenty of rich and diverse attractions. As well as the usual lake activities, the area has extensive vineyards and wine-making can be seen (and sampled!) throughout the area. With sandy beaches, quaint towns and world-famous attractions, the area packs a great deal of fun into a compact region.
The state park at Presque Isle is renowned for its sparking clear waters and offers miles of sandy beaches and hiking trails. Lake Erie attracts many anglers and an estimated 1.5 million fish are caught in the lake each year. It is also an ideal location for families with sandy beaches, swimming, boating, and many trails.
The Great Lakes area is popular with families of all ages and Great Lakes vacation homes are the ideal places to relax. With no rules, other than to do as you please, a vacation home offers plenty of space and flexibility at a very affordable price. Many vacation homes have great views of this lovely unspoiled area and are within easy walking distance of fishing streams or the lake itself. Comfortably furnished and fully equipped, lake homes offer perfect accommodations for couples, groups and families.
Things to Do at Great Lakes Lake Houses
Fishing is the top activity in the Great Lakes area. There are seasonal bass, steelhead, perch, walleye and trout just waiting for the bait. Quiet beaches and pristine waters at Presque Isle State Park are ideal for walking, swimming, boating or looking for beach glass. It is also a bird-watcher's paradise with many endangered and rare species inhabiting the varied habitats. More lively entertainment can be found at the Waldameer Amusement and Water Park which has 75 rides including the award-winning Ravine Flyer roller coaster. Great Lakes is also a great area for shopping, as clothing is exempt from sales tax.
Getting to Your Great Lakes Lodging
The nearest major airport to Erie, PA is the Erie International Airport which is just six miles from Erie itself. Your Great Lakes vacation usually requires a car so either pick up a rental car from the airport, or consider taking a leisurely drive to Erie along some of the scenic highways in this area.
Places to Visit Around Great Lakes, Pennsylvania
The main communities in the Great Lakes area are Erie itself, Conneaut Lake and North East with its beachfront location. Lake Erie itself is one of the main attractions in the Great Lakes area. For history lovers, the Lake Erie Maritime Museum recalls the local involvement in the War of 1812. The reconstruction of the U.S. Brig "Niagara" is docked in the port during the summer and gives interesting tours. The downtown bayfront area has been redeveloped around the Bicentennial Tower and Dobbins Landing.
The quaint town of North East is the heart of the wine-growing district. It also has many unique shops and restaurants and is a great place to visit.
Vacation rentals in the Great Lakes area are also within easy reach of Niagara Falls which is one of the natural wonders of the world and makes for a memorable day out.
The Weather at Great Lakes, PA
The Great Lakes area of Pennsylvania is affected by its close proximity to Lake Erie. During the winter, it is very cold with lake-effect snowstorms. However, the summer months are beautifully warm and sunny with temperatures in the 70s Fahrenheit. July is the warmest month when average daily highs are 80 F (26 C). Rainfall is fairly even spread throughout the year with a total of 42 inches.

Earlier this summer I went down to ride with Bill (BILLALEX70) Anne (AMCG2002), Nancy (ROOKIERIDER) and Bill's buddy Ed (not a sparker). We had a blast and you can read my version in the blog titled 'Sparks flying in Mansfield (Ohio)'.
Bill and I have talked about riding together again, and finally we got together this morning for another ride. This time Anne, Nancy, and Ed were unable to join, but John, some other strong dude Anne and Bill ride with, came along. I think they are trying to find all these strong riders to see if they can leave me in the dust ... and some day it may happen.
Actually I was an easy target today. I ran 12 miles yesterday and I have not been on my bike for about a month - in fact I have not been much on my bike this summer, so I am an easy target.
We had talked about not riding if it was raining, so when we looked at the weather yesterday, it looked pretty decent. Well, I want to say - it was a gorgeous day for a bike ride. Not only was it great weather (some may disagree when I tell we started with a temperature of about 34), but the sun was out, and the fall colors were phenomenal. I live about 90 miles from where the ride started - and it was a gorgeous drive, and then the bike ride was just so pretty.
I could certainly feel that it has been a while since I rode on rolling hills, let alone be on the bike. But we did well. I think most of the time I looked the avg speed was 16.5-17 mph. At the end we did some spinning and the avg came down.
Bill and John - thanks for a great ride.... while I am writing this - I got a txt message from Bill (he went out to do the entire 69 miles (John and I did 37), and in retrospective that was a smart move on our part... I won't steal the thunder from Bill.
Ride on friends...
Today I ran the Akron half ... I sent out a little report to my friends - I am copying and pasting it to you:
I have had a couple of people ask me for a race report from Akron half marathon, so I am sending out a bulk mail to a bunch of you honorees, friends, runners, and anyone else .. did I forget anyone?
I had not been training a whole lot before the 13.1, but I figured I could do it anyway.
Last night I went for the package pick up (which is where you get your race number). I also spent an hour and a half at the Team in Training booth attempting to recruit new participants to the program. I had a good time doing it, and met some really interesting people. Then drive home - dinner - get everything ready and get to bed, because 4am would be there soon.
I need to back track a little. A couple of days ago I got an email from one of my cycling friends from a previous bike ride that he would be running, and I got an email from one of my team mates from this years Cleveland Marathon who was also running, and we decided to meet and perhaps run together. Around the same time I learned from someone that her best friend of many years - her lymphoma had relapsed for the 4th time. Well, even though I was not running FOR team in training - I decided to dedicate the run to this person.
I got up, did my usual routine, and got in the car and drove to Akron. Parked my car. And found my friends at a preset place. Met some of the other team in training runners and two coaches. (there were 30 fundraising TNT participants).
Well, 7am the bell rang and ~11.000 runners were on their way. About one mile into the run a lady was fiddling with her ipod and slowed down right in front of me, and she went down. I saw her get up again, but I felt really bad about it (and it still bothers me). I did see her get up again, but in that mob-scene there is not really a way to turn around. - I hate to say it - but I was rude and did not stop. The run continued and I did a pretty good speed, until about mile 4 when I had to slow down... I am not sure why. It lasted for about one two miles - not sure .. but then I picked up speed, and kept the speed ... getting me across the finish line at 2:08-2:09 (unofficial) ... which shaves about 7-8 min off my previous personal best. How can you not be happy with that?
I got my medal, got my bag (with change of clothes) ... and made a quick exit to the car, and drove home. The weather forecast yesterday called for rain, but during the time I ran it was perfect. I left - got on the freeway - and there was the rain WOW.
It was a good race - I feel really good - and I hope I transitioned some positive energy to the person who is currently going through chemotherapy. Next weekend is a two day bike ride in Ashtabula county, and then October 18, back on my 'happy feet'... half marathon in Detroit.
Jan Frandsen
- three disciplines - one mission - one goal
For some reason I started to gain weight last week. The gain was at a rate which made me puzzled. Today I reached approximately (for my eyes only) lbs, and I started looking at what I ate, what I had changed, until I reached an ah - ha moment. I found the culprit. A food which was low in calories (and I should have known better) turned out to have a LOT of salt in it - WOW ....
the morale of the story - read your labels and be very careful with the amount of sodium. This particular item would have given me a total of 420 cal if I ate the whole thing - but at the same time it would also give me a whopping 3000 mg of salt. And I wonder why my weight increased. It is all retention of water.
'Say no to salt"....
I am going to come with some musings I thought of after todays bike ride.
I realize not everyone have the luxury of having health insurance, but that is for a different blog entry.
A couple of years ago I was friendly with one of our environmental services employees. We were talking health, and she shared with me that she was hypertensive but had not seen her doctor for - I can't remember how long. I suggested she saw her PCP, and she did. When he saw her - he had her schedule a physical. That possibly saved her life. She was diagnosed with breast cancer. Subsequently she had surgery but no chemo or radiation.
About a year ago I had a conversation with one of our MD's. We talked cycling, and health. Well, I finally succeeded in having him go and have a physical done. We then talked about bike riding ... after 1 year he had a physical and today we went bike riding for 25 miles (I added some miles to the meeting place and home). Of course the MD found his cholesterol numbers were in need of correcting.
I am sure all of us have someone who inspire us in our journey. I certainly do. I have set goals. Those goals are mostly not in lbs, but in healthier behavior, and to brag - my second (preventive) stress test was better than my first.
Look at yourself in the mirror. Look at what this journey have done for you. Then take it and apply it to something you care about and make them healthier, and because of that feel better. We can - each one of us - make a major non-partisan contribution to the health care reform - live a healthier life - feel better ... and if you like bike riding ... well then it is about the bike.
In my previous blog - I talked about the bike ride 'spokes of hope'. The first spokes of hope is currently taking place. Because of my planned vacation to Europe I cold not be part of it. However, next year I will be.
Spokes of hope was conceived by my friend, cyclists extraordinaire (national champion and state champion) and breast cancer survivor. It is a bike ride which will start from different parts of the country and end at the National Cancer Institute - and then with the participants proceed to Capitol Hill with the purpose of advocate for cancer care and survivorship.
Below is a very emotional (warning) account of why we are riding for spokes of hope, and trust me - I will be there next year to meet the Michelle's out there and to say 'fight like hell'. By the way the author is a 20 year survivor of brain cancer.
livestrong & ride2live
Rather than tell you about the entire day I want to share the one piece that shook me to my core. Our group had ridden to the third stop of the day. We were visiting the cancer center in a west side hospital. We had the SoH banner out for all to sign, Livestrong bracelets ready to handout and our "army" ready to go into action.
It was here that I met a beautiful 22 year old woman named Michelle. She slowly walked into the room wearing PJ's and socks. Only a few strings of blond hair stuck out from her blue bandana. Her face was pale and blood was visible in the whites of her eyes. Her hands and body could not stop shaking. She was so quiet and soft spoken. It was difficult to hear her when she spoke but when she did I hung on every word.
Michelle is battling Leukemia and recovering from a bone marrow transplant. After talking for a while I gave her one of the bracelets and then asked if she would like to sign the banner so she could "go with us to DC." She agreed and we walked slowly over to the banner where she got to meet Cindi.
The three of us sat in front of the banner and we all talked. Michelle is the mother of a three year old boy, David. She has not seen him for months. The doctors have not allowed the visit due to the possible passing of germs. She was so sad. Her heart was broken, her body was broken and almost to the point that her spirit was broken. As a parent, I hate to be away from Aneshka when I go out of town. This trip alone is for more than a week and I miss her so much. I cannot imagine being denied the hugs, kisses and whispers of, "I love you, Daddy." Especially during a time of struggle, when you need those the most.
Cindi was talking about cycling and I asked Michelle what she did for physical activity. She said, "nothing." I told her that just getting up and walking was going to help her heal and feel better. She told me that she was not walking much. It clicked for me and I told her that if she started to walk more, the quicker she would heal and thus the sooner she would have David in her arms again. She smiled. As I teared up I told that you have to find your reason to fight and for her it was her son, David. You have to get up everyday and " Fight like hell" I told her. Her way of fighting could be as simple as walking often.
Before she got up to make a visit to her room Cindi offered her one of the SoH cycling caps. Michelle quickly pulled of her bandana and let Cindi slide on her new fashion piece. Michelle smiled.
As she walked out I started to talk with another group. I had just gotten into a conversation with this group when Michelle slowly made her way back into the room. Both Cindi and I were talking elsewhere so Michelle sat down alone. I watched from the corner of my eye and could see she was sad. We were just finishing our conversation when I saw Michelle making her way to the door. I was blessed with hugs and handshakes from my new friends and then bolted for the door. Michelle seemed to be slowly dragging herself down the hall.
I walked up to her and told that it was pleasure meeting her and that she would be in my heart and mind this entire trip to DC. She put her weak arms around me and gave my a tremendous hug. Almost like a death grip. She didn't let go and started to cry on my chest. As tears started to flow from my eyes I spoke softly into her left ear. "Fight for David. Fight for yourself. Fight like hell!" Every care, problem or issue in my life disappeared at that moment. All I could think of was the pain Michelle was going through and how much I wanted her to beat the cancer, feel better and be with her son.
We said our goodbyes and I went back into the room with the banner. Our time was winding down so we moved chairs back into place rolled up the banner and made our way out the door. I was not ready to get on the elevator. I so wanted to find Michelle and say something profound, motivate her or just be there for her. I looked down the hallway wondering which room was hers. As bodies moved through doors and adjacent hallways I saw the yellow and black cycling cap at the end of the hall. She looked weak and exhausted. She looked sad and scared. But none of that mattered because she was walking. I waved and she did not see me so I moved and waved again. She lifted up her right hand just a little bit and nodded her head softly. She was up and fighting.
I have been an emotional wreck since meeting Michelle. Jay, one of the great people on this SoH tour, told me why I feel this way. "Because everyone we have met so far has been a person. Michelle was a patient.". He is right. I also believe the her pain reminds me of my past and makes me look deep inside myself as I step into this new battle with the two new tumors. Meeting Michelle is another reminder for me to "Fight like hell!"
The Spokes of Hope Tour started out for me as a celebration of my 20th anniversary as a survivor. It is so much more than that. Along with taking the advocacy and awareness issue to DC we have the opportunity to touch the lives of others going through this battle. We can help them by listening to their concerns, sharing or experiences and just simply showing that we care. We can help them by showing everyone that cancer doesn't have to be a death sentence. We can help them by giving them hope. Hope is contagious (as proudly displayed on our banner). We can help them by leading by example. That means each one of us is out there "Fighting like hell!"
Thank you for letting me spill my thoughts and emotions. I know this was long but I needed to share it. Today really hit me hard and writing this has helped me find some balance again. Tomorrow, as I struggle up hills on my bike I will be thinking of Michelle walking down that hallway and being few steps closer to hugging her son. That's the motivation for me to pedal my way to DC.
