Why I teach
I think teaching is the most important job in the world after parenting.
Favorite Book
Depends on my mood. I like fiction, British literature, Classic literature and yes--sometimes a good page-turner mystery.
Favorite film
Only one? I'm very hard on films. I like classics--almost anything with Gregory Peck, Audrey Hepburn, or Humphrey Bogart. I like foreign films. A recent one is Pan's Labyrinth. I like dark humor, like Fargo, Pulp Fiction, or Goodfellas. Speaking of dark, The Exorcist and The Godfather are two more. I'm also a bit of a documentary junkie, especially music documentaries. The Last Waltz is a favorite. A strange favorite is Searching for the Wrong Eyed Jesus. I think Michael Moore can do no wrong.
Best part of being at SVC
It's a small and caring community on a breathtaking campus.

The Vilas County Sheriff's Department has released new information about the death Sandra Schinke, 55. Schinke was reported missing April 6, 2012 from her Plum Lake area home. Her body was found September 19, 2013 by a hunter near a snowmobile trail in the Northern Highland State Forest.
Lt. Carl Gauger said there was no trauma to Schinke's body. Her glasses were intact and her jewelry was not missing indicating no sign of foul play. Lt. Gauger also said there were no penetration wounds to the body.
He said based on the condition of the body Schinke would have died around the time she was reported missing.
Investigator have closed the case simply because they have nothing left to test. Schinke's preliminary cause of death and matter of death are both 'undetermined'.

CAMP SPOTLIGHT: The Children's Garden
Date: July 14, 2010
by: Loren Mayo | Community Editor
Throughout July, The Children's Garden is teaching kids about the magic of gardening with its summer camp. Kids will take nature walks, learn about animals, insects and birds, and even get to make believe they are pirates, fairies and hobbits for a day. The garden also offers reading day camp with art projects, illustration of the story and drama performances of selected book scenes. The Observer spotted the following kids hanging out in the garden in between camp sessions and caught up with them to chat.
Lilah Davenport
How many times have you visited The Children's Garden?
"I think 16, 17 or 14."
Do you like coming here to play?
"Not when it's so hot. I like it when it's medium."
What have you seen so far today?
"Leaves, insects and flowers. I like those yellow flowers over there and I like the pirate ship. I really like to go inside the maze."
Banyan Gilkey
What's your favorite activity at The Children's Garden?
"Going on the slide, because if Jack and Lilah come with me, then we hold each other down the slide and grab each other's shirts. Sometimes my little brother comes, and even my mom does it!"
How many times have you visited The Children's Garden?
"Three-thousand times."
Have you seen or done anything interesting today?
"I found a bunch of treasures — my mom has them all in her purse. I also really like the tree house, and some of the colored poles over there shoot water and you get to walk through the mist."
Jack Davenport
What's the best part about The Children's Garden?
"The playground because it's cool, fun and shady."
How many times have you visited The Children's Garden?
Have you seen or done anything interesting today?
"Well, I found these gold rocks and this bright piece. Sometimes we play games."

Two hours later I find myself scrounging the cupboards of the test kitchen and proceeding to eat whatever I can lay my hands on. In an effort to take better care of myself, I've stocked my freezer with muffins. Homemade so I know what goes in them and mini so I can eat more than one without feeling like a pig! (Note – any regular-sized muffin recipe can be adapted to mini muffins just remember to check the baking time 5 to 8 minutes before the time suggested for the larger size as they'll bake quicker.)

End-of-day rituals create comfort, sense of belonging
If your New Year's resolution is to slow down the pace of your family life, find some quiet moments and make more good memories, you may be in the market for some ideas about creating after-school and bedtime rituals.
In a back-to-school Family Forum column, we examined some ways that parents can build little rituals into the morning send-off routines, and suggested a couple of rituals to make the homecoming hours nicer as well, such as teatime and old-fashioned popcorn popping.
But in many modern families, there is precious little time for lingering over tea, or spending time at the stove. Between afternoon sports and music lessons, homework, chores, evening meetings, and other intrusions on family time, it can be challenging to find even 30 minutes to indulge in that fast-disappearing constant of traditional American life, the sit-down dinner.
The topic of family mealtimes, in fact, merits a column all its own and will be addressed separately at a future date. For now, we'll explore some ideas for the after-school and bedtime hours in general -- that meltdown-prone time of day when hunger, fatigue, and evening responsibilities all merge into what is jokingly referred to as the "arsenic hour."
At the end of the day, first of all, it's good to keep in mind that if you, the grown-up, feel exhausted after a day at work or home, the children are probably even more tired after their day at school. They're little people, after all, and they are struggling with developmental challenges all day long – not to mention the difficulty of being apart from their families.
So in some families, children might enjoy a chance to blow off steam in a ritual greeting when they first get home – whether it's a silly series of hugs, high fives and handshakes, or some favorite music, or even a nonsense jingle that involves their names.
Author Roger Rosenblatt has written about his daughter's habit, for instance, of making up goofy chants starring her children. "Sammer, Sammer, you're the one," she chanted in a sing-songy voice to son Sam. "Sammer, Sammer, you're so fun. Sammer, Sammer you're so sweet; you've got big toes and little feet!" When my daughter Leah was a toddler, I made up a similar silly rhyme to fit her name: "Leah, it's good to see ya; it's good to see ya, oh Leah!"
Other families have found that a quick way to decompress and reconnect at the same time is to establish the ritual of ten minutes of unstructured playtime when everyone first gets home. For some children, a brief session of roughhousing, pillow-fighting, or arm wrestling is appealing; in one family, I am told, the children play a roughhousing game with their parents in which they compete to snatch off each other's socks.
For other children, quieter pursuits such as drawing or other artistic expression might be more appealing. There's really only one rule: the after-school ritual should involve physical activity and not brain work – or passive vegetating, either. So it goes without saying that wind-down time does not include TV, video games, or other electronic entertainment.
Bedtime ritual benefits
As any parent who has snuggled up to an infant, rocked a baby to sleep or sung a lullaby can attest, one of the nicest times for creating rituals is bedtime. But older children don't outgrow the need for comfort at bedtime; in fact, they may need it even more. Although it may be tempting to disengage from bedtime routines with school-aged kids and to expect them to take more responsibility for putting themselves to sleep, they still need adult guidance to create the right environment for winding down. As one professor of pediatrics points out, nightly rituals not only help children get the sleep they need, but also help to create long-lasting memories, build family intimacy and a sense of belonging, and carve out an oasis of calm in an otherwise hectic day.
Also, I would add, rituals can allow a child the chance to be in control.
Although I do not remember any bedtime rituals in my own childhood, I do cherish the memory of an occasional bedtime treat: a five-minute back rub from my mom.
What I remember loving most about the back-rubbing session is that for those few minutes I had the rare opportunity to be in charge, and to tell my mom what to do. After some rubbing, I could ask for tickling, scratching, or gentle pinching, and she would obey until time was up. I have never forgotten how satisfying that was to my seven-year-old soul: to be able to order Mom around for a few minutes, after a day spent with grown-ups (and big brothers) bossing me around.
Once my own children came along, I added head rubs and foot rubs to the back rub ritual, or (since they all had long hair) stroking my daughters' hair. To this day, I still enjoy the chance to have their adult bodies sprawled across my lap for a session of hair stroking.
Lay-down time
My friend Marybeth had a ritual known as "lay-down time" when her boys were growing up. She and her husband would alternate between the two boys, each lying down beside one of them for stories and talk at the end of the day. Marybeth and her boys also made singing a part of their nightly ritual. This time of year, they would sing Christmas carols; but when summertime rolled around, she would teach them all the silly camp songs from her childhood.
I have also heard of families that sing their prayers at bedtime, and of families that instill habits of gratitude in their children with a bedtime ritual of asking five favorite things their day. In another family, a mom established the ritual of star-gazing with her son before bed. When weather permitted, they would go outside together and discuss the constellations and colors of the sky; but when it was cold, they carried on the ritual by pulling aside his window shade and discussing the phases of the moon.
My daughter Leah was one of those children who became attached to a "lovey" or comfort object at bedtime -- in her case it was a baby blanket, but for some children the object is a favorite stuffed animal. I have heard that some parents will toss their child's "blankie" in the dryer just before bed, to warm it up and make it even more comforting.
Another bedtime routine that eased the bedtime transition for Leah was called (don't ask me why) "news of the kisses." After Leah had said prayers and we had read a couple of stories, I would pretend to get up to leave. She knew I was faking, but this was her cue to say, "Wait, Mom! Let me give you the news!"
The "news" consisted of a litany of kisses that began with some of the old familiar standards such as Eskimo kisses (rubbing noses) and butterfly kisses (getting cheek to cheek and fluttering eyelashes). Then we moved on to more exotic varieties such as giraffe kisses (rubbing necks together) and fish kisses (comical pursing of lips while bulging the eyes – the more sound effects the better).
But the grand finale, since we lived near Philadelphia at the time, was a Phillie Phanatic kiss. Leah adored the Phanatic, who has a long green snout and a tongue that unfurls like one of those New Year's Eve noisemakers. The ritual was never complete until we ended with a kiss in which I slurped her cheek with a wiggly tongue, rolled my eyes goofily and made loud smacking noises.
As with most family rituals, the more laughter in the bedtime routine, the better. One dad in my neighborhood tells me that he has a kissing ritual with his daughters known as the "Seven-Minute Torture Kiss." Planting his lips in a ticklish spot behind a daughter's ear, he kisses lightly for at most 30 seconds – or until the kiss breaks down into giggles.
"Only six and a half minutes to go!" he warns them ominously – but he never follows through.
This father also tells me that one daughter's woobie, or security blanket, has been known to inspire hilarity at bedtime, as well as to provide his daughter that element of control that I mentioned. After baths, stories, prayers, kisses and a chat, Dad brings out the "appropriately wrapped woobie" – which he has rolled tightly and
kissed exactly 10 times -- and ceremoniously presents it to his daughter.
A bonus effect of the woobie ceremony, my neighbor tells me, is that it allows him to bring the nightly ritual to its all-important close. But the game has been known to backfire on him, he says. The "order of the woobie" has become so sacred and inflexible that the slightest variation in routine can end up in his flunking the bedtime test – to much giggling, of course.
"If it's a sloppy woobie," he says with a laugh, "I have to start all over again – because she gives it back!"

Authentically Italian
Bella's feels – and tastes – like Italy should
Short Pump is known for its share of chain restaurants and strip malls, but diners looking for something more distinct can certainly find it without heading downtown or to nearby Charlottesville.
In fact, local husband-and-wife restaurateurs Valeria Bisenti and Doug Muir brought a taste of Charlottesville (and Italy) to Short Pump when they took a chance and opened Bella's second location in the same shopping strip as Wal-Mart and Peter Chang China Cafe. (Bella's original location is on Main Street in downtown Charlottesville.)
For a local Italian restaurant, Bella's is as "Mom and Pop" as its gets. Valeria is Mom, and Doug is Pop. Since its opening about six months ago, diners have been eating rich comfort foods and drinking Italian wines. > Read more.

AQ$_MESSAGES_EXCEPTIONFirst of all I know there's this question: How to clear a queue in Oracle AQ but it doesn't have an answer.
I have a lot of messages(500k) in the exception queue in the Oracle AQ(I didn't know expired messages are moved to another queue so I didn't create a consumer for those). What I need now is to be able to delete those messages fast. I've read that it's not a good idea to clear the queue table via delete, because it could lead to inconsistent state. So I've put together following procedure, but it only clears about 50 messages/second
EXECUTE dbms_aqadm.start_queue(queue_name => 'AQ$_MESSAGES_EXCEPTION',
enqueue => FALSE, dequeue => TRUE);
dequeue_options DBMS_AQ.dequeue_options_t;
message_properties DBMS_AQ.message_properties_t;
message_handle RAW(16);
message SYS.AQ$_JMS_MESSAGE;
no_messages EXCEPTION;
pragma exception_init (no_messages, -25228);
dequeue_options.wait := DBMS_AQ.NO_WAIT;
dequeue_options.navigation := DBMS_AQ.FIRST_MESSAGE;
queue_name => 'AQ$_MESSAGES_EXCEPTION',
dequeue_options => dequeue_options,
message_properties => message_properties,
payload => message,
msgid => message_handle);
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('Message: ' || message_handle || ' dequeued');
WHEN no_messages THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (' ---- NO MORE MESSAGES ---- ');
WHEN others then
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line ('Exception queue not started for dequeue.');
It seems really slow considering it's running on the database machine. This procedure takes about three hours with 500k messages. Can I do it in some more effective manner?
I tried the dequeue_array from the link here: http://www.oracle-developer.net/display.php?id=319 But I can't create the tables, so I'm trying to create an array to "store" the results. Here's what I've got:
type messages_type is varray(500) of SYS.AQ$_JMS_MESSAGE;
messages messages_type;
dequeue_options DBMS_AQ.dequeue_options_t;
msg_properties DBMS_AQ.message_properties_array_t;
msg_ids DBMS_AQ.MSGID_ARRAY_T;
x_timeout EXCEPTION;
no_messages EXCEPTION;
dequeue_batch PLS_INTEGER := 500;
pragma exception_init (no_messages, -25228);
messages := messages_type();
msg_properties := DBMS_AQ.MESSAGE_PROPERTIES_ARRAY_T();
msg_ids := DBMS_AQ.MSGID_ARRAY_T();
dequeue_options.wait := 5;
queue_name => 'AQ$_MESSAGES_EXCEPTION',
dequeue_options => dequeue_options,
array_size => dequeue_batch,
message_properties_array => msg_properties,
payload_array => messages,
msgid_array => msg_ids);
I'm getting this error:
wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'DEQUEUE_ARRAY'
I think the problem is in the messages array, but I don't know what to do to make it work. Also, according to oracle doc(http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_aq.htm#i1000850), there should be another parameter:
error_array OUT error_array_t
But the explanation for this parameter is "Currently not implemented". What does it mean? Can it be left out? Should it be set to null? This is really confusing and google doesn't help here :(

World oil output struggling, say Arab experts
LONDON Oct 30 (Reuters) - Leading figures from the Middle East oil industry added their voices on Tuesday to those warning that the world is struggling to sustain rising oil production.
"There is a real problem -- that supply may not be possible to increase beyond a certain level, say around 100 million barrels," Libya's National Oil Corporation chairman Shokri Ghanem said at an industry conference.
"The reason is, in some countries production is going down and we are not discovering any more of those huge oil wells that we used to discover in the Sixties or the Fifties."
Sadad al-Husseini was a key architect of Saudi Arabian energy production policy for more than a decade whilst a top official at state oil firm Saudi Aramco. He was even more pessimistic, saying world oil production had already plateaued.
"We are already three years into level production," Husseini also told the annual Oil & Money conference, a gathering of top executives.
The views are far more conservative than those of the International Energy Agency, adviser to consumer countries, that supply will rise to 116 million bpd by 2030 to meet demand, from about 86 million bpd now.
Production is in decline in some regions, such as the North Sea, increasing the burden on other producers such as the 12 members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries.
A five-year rally in oil prices, which hit a record high above $93 a barrel on Monday, is leading to growing interest in peak oil -- the view that supply has reached, or will soon reach a high point and then fall.
"So many people are talking about the peak oil theory," Ghanem said. "It is not the figure itself but the principle that the world cannot continue being able to produce oil infinitely."
Peak oil theory has its detractors, who say technology can help extend the life of the world's reserves.
The price surge has also coincided with rising scepticism about the size of the world's oil reserves.
OPEC sits on about 75 percent of the world's total proven oil reserves of 1.208 trillion barrels, according to figures compiled by BP in its Statistical Review of World Energy.
Husseini said at the conference that reserves estimates are too high and oil prices can only remain on a rising trend.
Proven oil "reserves" are overstated by 300 billion barrels of speculative "resources", mainly in OPEC countries, he said. By 2030, production of oil and natural gas liquids could fall to about 75 million bpd.
"As long as demand continues to grow, oil prices can only go up," said Husseini.

Phuket Cable Ski - Phuket Wake Park
But there's more! If you turn left at the lights next to the Caltex gas station, you pass the market and are heading towards Loch Palm Golf Course and the old Kathu village when you will see a left turn to Kathu Waterfall (Nam Tok Kathu). There's actually a fair amount of new houses around this area - Kathu is getting quite popular! The road up to the waterfall winds along for several kilometers. It's all residential with houses old and new. Along the way you pass the entrance to the Cable Ski...
Phuket Cable Ski which has been renamed Phuket Wake Park is along the road before you get to Kathu Waterfall. It's quite a big set up, with a 400 meter long artificial lake surrounded by hills and palm trees. You can try wakeboarding, water skiing, kneeboarding. Lessons are available but every time I have looked in there have been some more experienced folk too, doing flips, jumps and other fancy stuff. I admit to not being an adrenaline junkie, so have never tried, though I have been rafting on the Zambezi and raced bicycles downhill at 80 kph in the Pyrenees... when I was younger. My wife and a couple of her friends did try kneeboarding one time.
The prices are reasonable I guess - 1000 Baht for 2 hours or 1500 Baht for a whole day. There are also long term rates. On Saturday there were plenty of kids there, but I don't think any were tourists! All local kids. My wife recognised a few from my daughters school. It's another quiet place to visit. If you never tried wakeboarding before... worth a go. You can also go running around the lake.
• More information: Phuket Wake Park Website
Kathu Waterfall
Just up the road from the cable ski is Kathu Waterfall, where you can take a nice little jungle walk or even a swim if there's enough water. Like all the waterfalls in Phuket, it's nothing too amazing, but if you are exploring, have a look!

After becoming a premature role model, he seemed well on his way to losing the plot, like his brother Shaun, but a wake-up call has come at the right time
August 15, 2012

News : Mitchell Marsh recalled for Champions Trophy
News : Mitchell Marsh sent back home after night out
Players/Officials: Mitchell Marsh | Shaun Marsh
Teams: Australia | Western Australia
At a time when the notion of prolonged adolescence has become common, 20 can seem an uncomfortably early age for a young man to be held up as a role model. The Olympics provided plenty of examples of how ill-prepared athletes of a similar age can be for the harsh glare of the public spotlight immediately following a contest - particularly if the result was not the gold medal he or she had been so ardently chasing, to the exclusion of many other life experiences.
A renewed mood for change, growth and regeneration in Australian cricket has placed a similar kind of pressure on young men to grow up; certainly at a greater speed than those of similar age in wider society. In searching for another generation of high-quality players the national selectors have looked at numerous youthful names - those of Phillip Hughes, Usman Khawaja, Steve Smith, Pat Cummins, Nathan Lyon and James Pattinson spring to mind - and, if they were found wanting at international level, have counselled them to grow as team men as much as cricketers.
The one whose growth out of cricketing puberty is most eagerly awaited is the Western Australian allrounder Mitchell Marsh. As a technically sound but powerful batsman and an increasingly slippery swing bowler, his potential for greatness is considerable. Marsh's talent was first viewed by a wide audience during the 2010 Under-19 World Cup, when he led Australia to victory, and has been glimpsed subsequently across a few fleeting appearances for the national T20 and ODI teams. With Shane Watson entering his 30s without yet finding a sense of peace about his problematic body or his role in the Australian team, Marsh's continued development is a desperately required part of the succession planning so hungered for in the pages of the Argus review.
Yet, Marsh's progress appears to have stalled. Apart from the injuries that seem inevitable for a young international bowler in Australia, Marsh has also fallen short of the levels of discipline asked of him at the Centre of Excellence in Brisbane, joining the likes of Shane Warne, Mark Cosgrove and David Warner among the wilful tyros to be marched out of their respective intakes. His expulsion for turning up hungover to training was not the first indiscretion of Marsh's time in Brisbane. Senior visitors to the establishment have not been entirely impressed with his decision-making or discernment, and there are stories of other misadventures not uncommon for a 20-year-old male but not becoming of a prospective Australian cricketer.
Marsh's difficulties can be seen to have surfaced in the gap between his potential and his performance. So far he has been identified, encouraged and built up for all that he could become rather than for what he has actually achieved, which is summed up by the following quite nondescript digits. In 18 first-class matches, he averages 21.10 with the bat and 25.19 with the ball. He has made one century, taken one five-wicket haul. His limited-overs and T20 ledgers are notably better, but it is as a Test match allrounder that he is most keenly sought by Australian cricket, and on that front he has a great distance to travel before he is ready.
|With Shane Watson entering his 30s without yet finding a sense of peace about his problematic body or his role in the Australian team, Marsh's continued development is a desperately required part of the side's succession planning
That is not, however, the impression one might get from some of the things said about him by observers. When he was Western Australia coach, in June 2010, at a time when Marsh had not yet made that one Sheffield Shield hundred, Mickey Arthur said, "I don't want to get ahead of myself when I say it but I can only think of Jacques Kallis.
"I often sat there and thought about Jacques Kallis and who in the world could ever replace him, and there's nobody. There's nobody who can bat in your top five and be your fourth seamer in world cricket, and only Mitchell Marsh has that ability and potential."
Marsh was chosen for Australia in 2011 and offered some neat cameos, but it is for cameos alone that he has shown a consistent knack, rather than for the match-shaping efforts he will be asked to provide in the future. In WA too, though, Marsh has been held up as an example of a young man who has "made it". A forage of YouTube can uncover a WACA instructional video in which Marsh is asked to give advice to prospective young cricketers. His response on what to tell a young player was a tad mixed, veering from the need for balance in life to that of wholehearted commitment to the goal. It appeared clear that as he left his teenage years, Marsh did not yet want to mainline entirely on cricket.
"At a young age you've still got to have a good balance in your life, not put all your eggs in one basket, obviously study hard at school and work hard," Marsh said. "But I think it's important all good sportsmen have good balance in your life. Your work ethic's the most important part. Being a youngster, when you're talented it sometimes can be easy to be lazy and let your talent get you there, but that can only get you so far in international sport.
"You see the good players who get there - it's about hard work, and I think Justin Langer's a prime example: he wasn't the most talented cricketer but he probably worked harder than anyone and his record shows it."
Langer is indeed a strong example, but his is not the one most commonly followed, particularly in WA. Perth can be a challenging place for a young cricketer or footballer to keep his gaze level and his goals clear in, as they can soon enter a scene where sportsmen are the celebrities of their town. Marsh has a foot in both worlds - he was considered a strong key position prospect among AFL draft scouts before he chose cricket - and with his family name and early success slipped easily into the world of the young athletes who have the run of the west.
The national selectors and the staff at the Centre of Excellence have tried to achieve balance between encouraging Marsh's talent and guiding him away from the distractions he has found. They now await his output as a cricketer to become less about flash and more about consistency. There is some Marsh family history to validate this approach.
The cautionary tale is that of Marsh's older brother Shaun, who turned 29 last month. Shaun too broke into Australian cricket with fanfare, clattering a century against NSW at the age of 19 that awed no less a judge than Steve Waugh. However, his subsequent tale would be one of late nights and false dawns, and to this day he has only made another six centuries, including one in Test matches, against Sri Lanka in Pallekele. On that tour, Marsh recalled a stern conversation with his former state coach Tom Moody about making cricket his true priority, and he was once suspended by the WACA for misbehaviour. But there was always a sense that he was not called to account for his excesses early enough, and as a result he has become the very embodiment of extended adolescence, still wrestling with the issues of a developing batsman at an age when he should be entering his prime.
Knowledge that his brother probably "got away with" far more may have informed some of the younger Marsh's indignation when he returned home from Brisbane to Perth, where he said his two offences had been unrelated and could not take away from the fact he had trained extremely hard. "'Wake-up call' are probably the right words,'' Marsh said. "The mistake I made was stupid and I regret that deeply, but I don't think it takes away [from] how hard I worked up there. It was probably the fittest and strongest I've ever been since coming back from a back injury.''
The national selectors are adamant that Marsh will not be allowed to repeat the mistakes of his brother, and so will become a more self-reliant cricketer in the process. At the same time they do not want to let him drift away from the national team and the mentors within it. As Warne and latterly Warner have proved, waywardness at academy time can indicate a free spirit that may later take flight on the field. The Australian game has flourished down the years via the brazenness of many such players - Doug Walters, Jeff Thomson and Keith Miller to name but three.
So it was that this month Marsh was given a reminder that he remains a part of Australian cricket's planning, being granted a place at the annual training camp held in Darwin. He has responded by training well and listening attentively, and has been perhaps a little less cocksure than at times on previous Australian duties. Importantly, he has also contributed on the field, making useful scores of 37 and 49 in the two practice matches played on turning wickets at Marrara Oval. While they do not differ from the kinds of tallies he has produced so far across his young career, they were made in testing conditions against worthy opponents. Darwin cricket watchers might just have been privy to the end of Marsh's cricketing adolescence.

Ahmer Naqvi: For a country torn by internal strife, he offers hope with his magnanimity, humility and cheerful disposition
Pakistan should not welcome Amir back
The serene team culture cultivated by Misbah and his men shouldn't be allowed to be disrupted by a player with a tainted past
November games need November prices
An early start to the international season, coupled with costly tickets, have kept the Australian public away from the cricket
The inherent dangers of batting
The sickening blow that struck Phillip Hughes is a reminder of the ever-present dangers associated with facing fast bowlers, even while wearing a helmet
Hope for Hughes, feel for Abbott
It is impossible to imagine how Sean Abbott must feel after sending down that bouncer to Phillip Hughes. While the cricket world hopes for Hughes' recovery, it should also ensure Abbott is supported
Why the Indian opener would be well advised to shelve the hook and pull in Australia

An early start to the international season, coupled with costly tickets, have kept the Australian public away from the cricket
The inherent dangers of batting (43)
The sickening blow that struck Phillip Hughes is a reminder of the ever-present dangers associated with facing fast bowlers, even while wearing a helmet
A crisis that defines the age (40)
Never mind cricket's absence from free-to-air TV - changes in social attitudes, the demands of work, and an individualistic age are all contributing to a decline in participation
Misbah's Pakistan or Imran's Pakistan? (39)
Pakistan have notched up some fine wins under Misbah-ul-Haq's leadership, but they haven't yet achieved consistent results outside the UAE
Phillip Hughes: Country kid who moved a nation (35)
Likeable, hard working and possessing skills that had him tagged as another great batsman in the making, it was a matter of time before Phillip Hughes cemented his spot in the Australian Test team. Then, improbably and inconsolably, his time ran out

Clopay is now offering high-altitude insulated glass is now available on several of its commercial and residential garage door models, expanding the range of door options that qualify for the Energy Tax Credit.
"Standard insulated glass can break due to pressure changes at altitudes above 5,000 feet," says Pat Lohse, vice president of residential marketing for Clopay Building Products.
"High-altitude glass has a capillary tube installed through the spacer to equalize any pressure differential between the inside and outside of the glass unit. The addition of this option provides dealers in specific markets the opportunity to sell insulated windows and also allows consumers to qualify for the Energy Tax Credit," adds Lohse.
High-altitude insulated glass is an option on the Clopay commercial and residential garage doors that currently offer insulated windows including:
o Premium Series
o Gallery® Collection 2" thick 3-Layer Models
o Coachman® Collection CG Models
o Reserve® Collection
o Avante™ Collection
It is also available on square or rectangular shaped plain windows.
o Grilles and inserts are available to use with this type of glass
o Not available on decorative windows such as Brilliance or Leaded Series.
o Not available on arched windows
High-altitude glass should not be used for installation at an elevation less than 3,000 feet above sea level. Doing so could increase moisture infiltration in the windows, producing a fogged appearance.

Feb 27, 2014The difficulty in rating a game like this is that it is a collection of aged games, albeit that some of the collection has not yet appeared on consoles. As a whole, this collection could stand from including the history of the more obscure games and xbox live support for more than just leaderboards, but this seems to be a hastily put together compilation.
Pac-man Battle Royale would have saved this collection from being a money grab, but the exclusion of xbox live support (local player only) basically limits this to a party game. Pac-man, Super pac-man, mrs. pac-man, etc. are all faithfully emulated, so much so that the emulation causes the screen to be letterboxed (cannot be adjusted). This game would have been disappointing at $10 and is a travesty at $20.… Expand
Apr 27, 2014An okay celebration of 30 years of Pac-Man's furious assault on the four unluckiest ghosts ever. There are better Pac-related options though. [Issue#110, p.78]
Apr 1, 2014Pac-Man is a classic game in everyone's opinion. Therefore, it's really nice to play some old Pac-Man games. Although the price is quit expensive for what you get. Four or maybe five Pac-man games are really worth it, the rest is simply too outdated.
Mar 26, 2014A disorienting mix of the classic, the needless and the forgotten. [Apr 2014, p.89]

text: Serena Williams vs. Li Na - Live Stream and WTA Championships Preview Visit Save For Later by Crunch Sports StaffPosted Serena Williams (credit: Dean Mouhtaropoulos/Getty Images) Share: 0 0 0 Get Tennis Alerts Serena Williams vs. Li Na takes place this afternoon in the final of the TEB BNP PARIBAS WTA Championships.The WTA Championships final match takes place on Centre Court and is scheduled to start at 15:00 GMT.In the UK, the game airs live on Eurosport 2/Eurosport 2 HD, while it is also streaming live online with bet365.Watch Williams vs. Li live here:Preview:Li has had a great WTA Championships and has looked very much in control throughout the week. Her performance against a previously injured Sara Errani in the first round showed mental fortitude that has sometimes eluded her in the past. She followed up her win over Jelena Jankovic at the US Open with another fine win, and then had to maintain concentration when she met another injured opponent in Victoria Azarenka. It looked for all the world that Petra Kvitova's marathon against Angelique Kerber had taken its toll, as Li was able to dispatch her in straight sets 6-4 6-2.With that win, Li not only becomes the first Asian player to reach the WTA Championships final, but she also finishes the year as the highest ranked Asian player, as she is the new world No. 3.Williams had also been in commanding form throughout the tournament, playing three straight days with three straight sets wins, and it looked like she was heading for the same in the semi-final racing to a 3-1 lead. But inexplicably, the world No. 1 started to look as though she was in real distress, with no call for the trainer.Initially this seemed to throw Jankovic, as the first set was edged out in Williams' favour, but in the second set the Serbian seemed to get herself together enough to take advantage of what looked like a lack of movement from Williams.The third set saw a return to the Williams of old, better movement through that service action, more noise on points, but once again she opened the door for Jankovic to come back from a 1-5 deficit. Williams won through in the end, but the end of year fatigue may be taking its toll."I think my body's a little tired after so many matches - I think yesterday I kind of hit a wall," Serena said on Saturday."But I'm just fighting out here. Honestly I'm just happy to still be in the tournament, and I'm honoured to be in the final again." If Li can keep her wits about her, and if Serena is affected by injury, there could be a new WTA Champion and another little slice of history later today.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A committee working to recall a northern Wisconsin senator has suspended its efforts.
Shirl LaBarre of Hayward registered a committee to recall Sen. Bob Jauch, a Poplar Democrat, to punish him for opposing a bill that would have jumpstarted an iron mine south of Ashland.
The committee has until May 18 to collect the 15,720 signatures it would need to force Jauch into an election. Citizens for Responsible Government Network, which works to elect conservative candidates, has been helping the committee.
The group issued a statement on the committee's behalf Friday saying the recall has been suspended. CRG Network Field Operations Director Orville Seymer says people are focused on recalls involving Republican Gov. Scott Walker and volunteers are spread thin.
He says the effort could resume later this summer.

text: Politico's Dylan Byers Fails to Mention the Obvious About Fareed Zakaria Print article Send a Tip by John Nolte 22 Aug 2014 post a comment Politico's Dylan Byers, the left-wing outlet's media writer, offered up a paragraph of analysis Friday that attempted to explain why the incoming plagiarism charges against Fareed Zakaria aren't "gaining nearly as much steam as those that brought down BuzzFeed editor Benny Johnson." Byers suggests that the charges don't really add up to plagiarism. He also suggests that the media is protecting one of its "elder statesmen." Fair enough. But why not mention Obvious Reason Number 3? Although he eventually ended up at BuzzFeed, Benny Johnson came from a conservative background. Once the plagiarism charges became public earlier this month, Media Matters was giving this new life through social media and almost certainly through their endless personal media connections. Zakaria, on the other hand, is a leftist -- a cherished leftist among the elite media and in the White House, up to and including President Obama. Does anyone believe an "elder conservative statesman" like a Charles Krauthammer or George Will would enjoy what Zakeeria is now: a very loud silence as the elite media come together to mostly pretend these charges aren't hanging out there? Zakeeria was hit with a third round of charges today. This time related to his best-selling book. I can't imagine what would be happening to Krauthammer if the same occurred around his latest best-seller. I want to be clear on one point: I'm not looking for Zakeeria's scalp. I don't have the knowledge to judge what he did or didn't do. The ethics involving plagiarism are complicated, and a man's career and reputation are on the line. There is no pitchfork in my hand. Conservative media as a whole have taken this approach. It's the rest of the media that's treating this differently. Furthermore, I recognize and appreciate that Byers is at least one member of the media not ignoring these charges. Follow John Nolte on Twitter @NolteNC
