Wow. I don't know what I am most disturbed by. The taunting, the fellow passagers cheering at the taunting, the vulgarity, the threats, the fact that it's Melbourne and for a supposedly tolerant, multicultural society and this is far from an isolated incident.
I hope someone knows who these revolting people are because they belong in cage and they shouldn't be breeding.
Absolutely disgusted.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 10:40 AM
Couldn't agree more - the thing that disturbed me was the fact that the bloke that posted the fottage said there was almost a mob mentality building up because they seemed to feel secure in their beliefs and that no one would challange them
Posted 21 November 2012 - 10:42 AM
This blew me away - I can't understand how a mob mentality took hold so fast, and the level of rage that comes from nowhere so fast....
And then the dad, with that language and behaviour in the company of his two kids.... unbelievable. Apparently it was at 10.30 pm on a Sunday night... what those kids were doing there in the first place is beyond me..

Just saw this.... unbelievable...... I'm glad that it was taped.... what disgusting behaviour.... wonder if they behave like that otherwise.....
I know if I worked/socialised with someone who did that, I would look at them differently after that. Why on earth do they think it is acceptable....

Do you think you'd say anything if you saw that happening? I'd like to think I would, but I can imagine that I'd be too scared.

It's disturbing and stupid. What is wrong with people? How embarrassing.

The look of fear on the little boy's face is awful. He is terrified of either his male caregiver or the situation or both.
It is a great video though. Really gets the point across.

And people wonder why Australia is seen as a racist country.
Also, the level of aggression, threats and intimidation aimed at a lone woman by several men is horrifying. I wonder what sort of attitudes those men have towards violence against women.

I feel sick watching that, and very ashamed to be Australian.

sometimes you just have to shake your head at the stupidity of some australians. I don't know where they get off thinking they're better than everyone else? the dad with the pram was disgusting.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 10:55 AM
I'm gobsmacked. I'm glad it was captured on film and I hope they find and charge the people on that bus for inciting racial hatred.
I'm moved to Aus when I was 11 and yes I was subjected to racism. Really cowardly racist abuse yelled at me from idiots driving by as I walk to primary school. I have never forgotten that. This was many years ago and I had hoped that racism in Australia was getting better. But sadly no. There are still plenty of idiots out there. Thankfully that are also many who are not like this.

To my mind, common sense dictates that self-preservation prevails. This works in the instances where the wee ones are with me.
When they are not, I have no common sense, and pray and hope that, there, in the crowd, there are others who are equally angered.
That Edmund Burke (sp) quote about evil triumphing when good people do nothing.
But in similar situations I have not done much thinking at all, so cannot claim to be so virtuous. I don't think I act because I'm a "good person" - I just get ticked off by morons giving humanity a bad name.
I may also have some latent "anger" issues, and asshats such as these make convenient targets and are way cheaper than therapy.

So many people are in denial that they are racist. Reminds be of the road rage I suffered a few years ago.
I was abused buy a 'white guy" with his teenage daughter, in an expensive area in Perth - Floreat. He called me a '****ing dirty noongah (sp?) - I am not even aboriginal, nor dark skinned. I was shocked! I was talking to and African friend of mine and told her about it, she told me she gets those remarks everyday. :-(
I hate Australia sometimes. Good on the person who filmed it, now we just need him charged.

Haven't seen the footage, because I don't think I coudl stand it, but The Age report said one of the men who started it was pushing a pram and had a partner with him who joined in. So he doesn't hate women. After all, he's married to one!!! Taht's the argument used, isn't it?
I'm so glad it was recorded and uploaded and has made the news. Fantastic work by the comedian who did it and great use of social media to expose d***heads. The people involved must be crapping themselves now
Posted 21 November 2012 - 11:14 AM
Absolutely disgusting behaviour. Shameful. Boganesque.
And I'd be wary of anyone who wears a cigarette behind their ear. Seriously who does that?

I'd be on phone to police quicker than you can say Oi Oi Oi. I did once back chat someone on the train for sharing his opinions on "coons" with me. I got called a retarded b**ch for my efforts. Started off innocently enough. Dude said hello, I said hello. He asked me where my accent is from. I told him I was South African. He said South African girls make him hard and he rather have us than them coons coming in. I said that was odd since I'd rather have them than him. He told me I was a retarded b**ch and I should **** off back to my own country. Noice.

You raise a good point except that the one instigator is female aptly dubbed Lady Herpes. But yeah, you can kind of picture them spinning the "she was asking for it" rhetoric. I think the mentality is one of the same.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 11:18 AM
What poor excuses for human beings those people are. The scummiest of the scum, bottom of the sh*t heap type of people that really have no place in a civilised society.
It's beyond sad, embarrassing, shameful, disgusting. It's downright scary if you ask me.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 11:21 AM
It is digusting behaviour. No one should be subject to that sort of abuse.
It's horrible that the minority of ppl give other Australians a bad name. We are not all like this. I have friends from many backgrounds who are just as Australian as me and have every right to live here.

Gautam Gambhir was dropped for the first two Test matches against Australia while Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay were named in the 15-man Indian squad. Apart from Dhawan, who received his maiden Test call-up, Uttar Pradesh seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar was rewarded for his good showing in the recent limited over games against Pakistan and England with a place in the Indian Test team for the first time. Gambhir, who was left out after a string of poor performances, will now captain the India A side in the 3-day practice match against Australia on February 16. Virender Sehwag, who has been given an extended run, might play in the middle order in case India decide to open with Vijay and Dhawan while Ajinkya Rahane and Ravindra Jadeja will also be vying for a place in the middle order. The batting order also has Test regulars like Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli and Sachin Tendulkar. Harbhajan Singh, who was dropped for the third and fourth Tests against England, makes his way back to the Indian team while Piyush Chawla does not find a place. R Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha are the other spinners in the line-up. In the pace department, Ashok Dinda and Ishant Sharma are the other options available for skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni apart from Bhuvneshwar. The Indian selection panel led by Sandeep Patil, which met at the BCCI head-quarters in Mumbai, did not consider picking Zaheer Khan and Umesh Yadav with the pace duo nursing injuries. Wasim Jaffer, who was in the news as a contender for the opening position, did not find favour with the selectors, neither did Suresh Raina, who scored a well-compiled ton in the Irani Trophy game against Mumbai. The other contenders for the number six position were Manoj Tiwary and Yuvraj Singh but the selectors decided against including them. Indian squad for the 1st and 2nd Test: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Captain and wicket-keeper), Virender Sehwag, Shikhar Dhawan, Cheteshwar Pujara, Sachin Tendulkar, Virat Kohli, Ravindra Jadeja, Harbhajan Singh, R Ashwin, Pragyan Ojha, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ajinkya Rahane, Ashok Dinda, Murali Vijay, Ishant Sharma.

There could soon be three new charter schools in Bay County. The Bay District School Board approved three of five new charter school applications Tuesday.
The schools are Central Bay Haven Charter Academy Middle School, the Rising Leaders Academy and the St. Andrew bay land school.
Central Bay Haven Academy will be a Middle School. Chief Executive Officer of Bay Haven Charter Academy, Inc., Dr. Tim Kitts, says there are no concrete plans for the school such as a location or opening date.
The Rising Leaders Academy will be an elementary school with the option of expanding to K-12 that will include a mini medical school.
The St. Andrew Bay Land School application indicates it will be at the old airport site. It will be an elementary school that incorporates science, technology, engineering and math-or the STEM program.
Bay Haven Charter Academy Inc. submitted an application for two virtual schools. The board decided to postpone their vote until the December 13th school board meeting.

Chyron's Greg Lennon to Present Keynote on Cloud-Based Services at 2011 Rocky Mountain AVX
Chyron's Greg Lennon to Present Keynote on Cloud-Based Services at 2011 Rocky Mountain AVX
MELVILLE, N.Y. — Oct. 13, 2011 — Chyron today announced that Greg Lennon, director of product management, has been selected to provide the keynote speech at the 2011 Rocky Mountain Audio Video Expo (AVX) in Denver. Presenting on Thursday, Oct. 20 at 9:15 a.m., Lennon will speak on the topic of content in the cloud, which will address the technological advances that have made today's cloud-based services possible and provide an overview of the architecture supporting those services. In addition, the presentation will showcase examples of cloud-based content creation tools and their features and benefits.
"Cloud computing stretches back decades, but the success of this model on a broad scale has been quite recent," said Lennon. "I look forward to providing some insight into this technology and its development, to discussing applications of the cloud-based model at the 2011 Rocky Mountain AVX, and to detailing the value that this approach can bring to the Pro A/V environment."
Lennon has nearly 25 years of experience in the broadcast television industry working with both vendors and content producers. Originally a graphic designer and CG operator, he worked extensively in live sports broadcasting for nearly 20 years before joining Chyron in 2004. He launched Channel Box, Chyron's real-time channel branding product, in 2006 and has been involved in most aspects of Chyron's workflow solutions. Following the company's acquisition of AXIS Graphics in 2008, Lennon was instrumental in Chyron's evolution into a service-oriented company. Today he oversees the development and implementation of Chyron's SaaS (Software as a Service) products.
Hosted Oct. 19-20 at the Crowne Plaza Denver International Airport, the 2011 Rocky Mountain AVX brings together industry leaders at more than 100 booths. In addition to featuring the video, sound, broadcast, animation, engineering, and media experts that have attended this regional expo for the past 20 years, this year's show promises a whole new level of expertise in the A/V, conferencing, presentation, HD, and 3D fields.

Ebola Hotline Activated for General Information
JACKSON, Miss. – The 24-hour Mississippi Ebola Hotline has now been activated through funding from the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH). The hotline is available for general Ebola information and will direct any case-specific calls to health officials when necessary.
The hotline number is 1-877-222-9358.
"While it's highly unlikely that we will see a case of Ebola here in Mississippi, we continue to work with our healthcare partners to make sure we're prepared for a possible case, should one occur," said MSDH State Epidemiologist Dr. Thomas Dobbs.
"We realize Ebola is still an issue of great concern to Mississippians, and this hotline should help answer general questions about the disease to those who are interested," said Dobbs.
For more information about Ebola and what Mississippi is doing to prepare for the disease, visit the MSDH website atwww.HealthyMS.com/Ebola.

Learn more about the Acadian culture
Published: Tuesday, November 8, 2011 at 5:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 8, 2011 at 5:46 p.m.
Interested in learning about your Acadian ancestors?
A program, "From Acadia to Louisiana: Acadian History, Culture, and Deportation" presented by Leryes Usie, is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Nov. 9 at the Terrebonne Main Library, 151 Library Drive, Houma.
Usie will discuss Acadian history, as well as the history of the surnames of many Lafourche and Terrebonne parish families.
According to Usie, he has done this particular presentation for the last seven years.
The program is two and a half hours long and spans 200 years, starting with the settlement of the Acadians in what today is called Nova Scotia, their exile and eventual settlement in south Louisiana.
"The presentation helps clarify in people's mind exactly what the Acadians went through," Usie said in a 2010 interview with The Courier and Daily Comet.
Usie, 73, is a former U.S. Department of Commerce employee, workboat captain and tour guide for Cajun Tours of Houma

Natural-Gas Prices Fall Even With Chill Nearing
by: Timothy Puko
Oct 20, 2014
TOPICS: Supply and Demand
SUMMARY: When cold weather looms across the U.S., natural-gas prices usually rise. This year they are falling, after a record production boom nearly replenished stockpiles left at their lowest since 2003 by last winter's freeze.
CLASSROOM APPLICATION: Students can use supply and demand to examine the effects of shifts in both demand and supply on the equilibrium price of natural gas. Also, they can compare factors, such as weather, that have differing effects on the prices of two major energy sources: natural gas and oil. Lastly, they can examine how bottlenecks in supply chains affect prices.
1. (Advanced) How do weather forecasts affect the price of natural gas? Why does the weather have a greater effect on the price of natural gas than it does on the price of oil?
2. (Advanced) During periods of high demand for natural gas, how do bottlenecks in the natural gas supply chain affect the price of natural gas?
3. (Introductory) Why did prices for prices for natural gas last week reach to their lowest point of 2014?

Predictive Validity of Stated Preference Data: Evidence from Mountain Bike Park Visits Before and After Trail System Expansion
Kevin Atkinson and John C. Whitehead (firstname.lastname@example.com)
No 14-09, Working Papers from Department of Economics, Appalachian State University
Abstract: This paper investigates the validity of stated preference data for use in recreation demand estimation. We use stated preference and revealed preference data from users of a mountain bike park collected before and after an expansion of the trail system. The ex-ante stated preference data elicited before the change exhibits hypothetical bias, but, it would provide useful information for demand prediction.
Key Words: hypothetical bias, recreation demand, revealed preference, stated preference
Kevin is an undergraduate economics major who'll be applying to graduate schools this year. This paper is revised from the paper he presented at the National Conference on Undergraduate Research.
From The Chronicle of Higher Education:
The Internet can be a nasty place, as academics know well from Rate My Professors.
It is on that website that faculty members might learn, for example, that their students think they are "useless" or a "general moron," and say anyone "would enjoy eating the rectum of a brown, exotic Australian toad" more than taking their course.
Yes, those are real reviews.
Many professors assail the website and anything that might give it credence. But at least some faculty members have recently concluded that the best way to challenge the site and its unsubstantiated ratings is to mock it without mercy.
Lehigh University became the latest institution to use the website as fodder for comedy. Taking a cue from a popular late-night comedy trope in which celebrities read cruel tweets about them, Lehigh filmed faculty members reading negative comments about themselves from Rate My Professors, and posted the videos online.
Here is one we are watching closely:
H.R. 5069 would allow the Department of the Interior (DOI) to raise the price charged for Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamps (referred to as federal duck stamps). Federal duck stamps are annual permits sold by the federal government to hunt migratory waterfowl. The stamps also allow entry to National Wildlife Refuges that charge entrance fees. Sales proceeds are used to acquire wetlands for inclusion in the National Wildlife Refuge System.
CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 5069 would reduce the deficit by $5 million over the 2015-2024 period. Collections from the sale of duck stamps are recorded in the budget as revenues, deposited in the Migratory Bird Conservation Fund (MBCF), and later spent. Because the bill would affect direct spending and revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. In addition, we estimate that implementing the bill would have no significant effect on discretionary spending.
H.R. 5069 contains no intergovernmental mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments.
By increasing the annual fee for duck stamps, H.R. 5069 would impose a private-sector mandate, as defined in UMRA, on individuals required to obtain the stamp as a federal permit to hunt migratory waterfowl. Based on information from gaming officials at DOI, CBO estimates that the incremental cost of complying with the mandate would fall well below the annual threshold for private sector mandates ($152 million in 2014, adjusted annually for inflation).
via www.cbo.gov
If the federal government does manage to raise revenue it is only because almost all of the revenue will be used to buy wetland habitat, effectively scaling the no-new-taxes-no-matter-the-need constraint that we find ourselves in.
This part of the cost estimate got me to thinking [pdf]:
H.R. 5069 would increase the price of federal duck stamps from $15 to $25 for an annual permit. Based on information provided by DOI, CBO estimates that federal revenues would increase by $119 million over the 2015-2024 period. That estimate includes a reduction in the number of stamps sold compared with the number that would be sold at a price of $15, reflecting CBO's assessment of the effects of prior stamp price increases.
I'm not sure about the "CBO's assessment of the effects of prior stamp price increases" since the two most recent duck stamp price increases, $10 to $12.50 in 1989-90 and $12.50 to $15 in 1991-92, have been followed by increases in sales (the 1987-88 increase from $7.50 to $10 led a 7.3% decrease in sales, an elasticity of -0.22; you can get the data here).
It would be interesting to know how price sensitive the CBO thinks waterfowl hunters are. In a sport that requires thousands of dollars of equipment, I wonder how much a $10 increase would have on the participation decision. The FWS says that 1,517,647 duck stamps were sold in 2011-12 (pdf). If revenues increase by $13 million annual, my back of the envelope calculation suggests that they think they'll sell 1.42 million stamps.*
Most (I say most because I don't read them all, I don't even read a few, but all that I've read have done this) of the CBO's "cost analyses" are actually benefit-cost analyses where market prices are assumed constant. Under this assumption the benefits of a government program is the government revenue and the cost is the government expenditures. This reason I find this one interesting is that the policy is a price increase so that the one thing that is missing is the lost consumer surplus, which I estimate is about $400,000.*
The Senate bill (S. 1865) would raise the price to $30 after five years of $25 and revenues are estimated to increase by $8 million. I'll leave these calculations as an exercise (i.e., I can't figure out why sales do up, unless we are adding a population trend).
*Here is my logic (invoking ceteris paribus at the outset): Let's say that 1.5 million duck stamps are sold. At a price of $15 that is revenue of $22.5 million (which is the correct order of magnitude). Given a downward sloping linear demand revenue will rise by area a and fall by area e. The CBO estimates that the revenue increase (a - e) will equal $13 million suggesting, logically, inelastic demand (the picture is not to scale!). Based on this it looks like 1.42 million duck stamps are expected to be sold (i.e., 1.42 = [25.5+13]/25). These numbers suggest an elasticity of -0.08 which is more inelastic than the 1987-88 experience.
The only cost that is not included in this calculation is the lost consumer surplus from area b. Area b is equal to $400,000. However, all is not lost because the waterfowl hunters that remain in the market will likely take more visits to wildlife refuges with more habitat, increasing consumer surplus [what am I missing?].
... is our passivity when our employers erect monopolies on campus to exploit students:
The rise of online textbook retailers such as Chegg, Amazon, and Half.com, has put official college and university bookstores on the defensive. Once the default source of course materials, campus bookstores run by Barnes & Noble and Follett are responding to the pressure by cracking down on competitors' on-campus advertising, which bookstores contend violates their exclusivity contracts with colleges.
Chegg is a nine-year-old company that offers textbook rentals and sales, along with tutoring and career services. It has irked campus officials and bookstore managers with its marketing techniques, which include recruiting students as brand ambassadors, slipping free Red Bull and Starbucks products into book-delivery packages, and buying back books on the campus, often for more money than the bookstore offers.
The company has received dozens of cease-and-desist letters, according to its president, Dan Rosensweig, but it has no plans to scale back its efforts.
"There's no legal basis for it, and we've never been sued," Mr. Rosensweig said. The aggressive tactics have helped bring rapid growth to the company, which couches its arguments in populist terms. "Everything we can be doing to help kids save money and time, we should," Chegg's chief executive argued. "The school should not be working against the interest of the student financially."

It is rare to find an economist who thinks that competition isn't a good thing.
My favorite reply to this one is "Listen, I'm not joking. This is my job!":
3. Don't pack up your things as the class is ending.
We get it. The minute hand is closing in on the end of class, there's a shift in the instructor's voice, and you hear something like "For next time …" That's the cue for the students to start putting their stuff away. Once one person does it, it's like an avalanche of notebooks slapping closed, backpack zippers zipping, and cell phones coming out.
Don't do it.
Just wait 10 more seconds until the class is actually over. If you don't, it makes it seem as if you are dying to get out of there and, hey, that hurts our feelings!
Hat tip: Newmark's Door
This is a good thing:
Tar Heels in search of the easy A, beware. Starting this fall, UNC-Chapel Hill transcripts will provide a little truth in grading.
From now on, transcripts for university graduates will contain a healthy dose of context.
Next to a student's grade, the record will include the median grade of classmates, the percentile range and the number of students in the class section. Another new measure, alongside the grade point average, is the schedule point average. A snapshot average grade for a student's mix of courses, the SPA is akin to a sports team's strength of schedule.
The nuanced transcripts will provide more information for graduate schools and employers, who should be better able to judge the difference between good and excellent performance. An A- in psychology might not look so swell when the average grade in the class is an A. On the other hand, an A- in physics looks downright impressive if the class average is a C+.
The new contextual transcript is the university's response to grade inflation – the long-term trend of rising grades that began in the 1960s and accelerated in the 1980s. ...
Andrew Perrin, a sociology professor at UNC-CH, said the [grade inflation] system provides a perverse incentive for students to seek courses not because of intellectual interests or career aspirations, but to pad their GPAs. Popular sites such as Rate My Professors include a measure of "easiness" for each faculty member.
Anything less than an A is unacceptable for some students.
"Elite universities, both elite state universities like ours or elite private universities, face a particular challenge, which is that everybody here is used to being the best," Perrin said. "And in many cases, they're used to complaining if they're not the best."
At elite regional comprehensive state universities or elite community colleges, professors face a particular challenge, which is that not everybody here is used to being the best and they don't complain if they're not the best. They especially don't complain if you explain to them that this is a college course and not everyone is going to get an A.
Yoram Bauman:
With a new school year approaching, this is a good time to update our review of the treatment of climate change in economics textbooks. As in our 2010 and 2012 reviews, some books hit the mark while others are wildly misleading. But we're happy to say that there's plenty of good news, especially at the top and the bottom of the grade distribution: the good books have gotten better (including the first-ever A+ grade!) and even the worst ones have made improvements (the lowest grade is now a D-, not a F!).
Some books, of course, suffered some backsliding. Out of 18 books reviewed, four still make the "Not Recommended" list, with the biggest loser being Gwartney, Stroup, Sobel, and Macpherson's Economics: Private and Public Choice (15th ed.), hereby dubbed the recipient of the undesired 2014 Ruffin and Gregory Award for the Worst Treatment of Climate Change in an Economics Textbook (so named for a comically bad treatment of climate change in a textbook now thankfully out of print).
Without further ado, here is the full report, as well as our summary report card:
The course is for senior economics majors, MBAs and graduate students from other programs. My reading list includes BCA examples, overviews, technical stuff (in mostly non-technical language) and other stuff.
Am I missing anything?
And no Tim, I'm not going to add Haab and McConnell.
I posted this to my daughter on Facebook earlier today. John seemed to think it was blog-worthy. So here you go:
As we move our oldest into her dorm today, I thought I would give her (and maybe all of the others starting college this week) one last Dad lecture. But this one's a little different--it comes from twenty years experience as a college professor. In fact, I give this same lecture to all of my students. Here are 3 things I've seen lead to success for students:
1) Go to class: This might seem obvious, but for some reason students forget. Even if your professors don't take attendance, there is a direct correlation between the number of times you go to class and how well you do in class. Why? Because it is in class where you figure out what the professor wants, how they think and what is needed. I don't play favorites in the classroom, but those who come to class do better (even if they fall asleep). It's that simple. Get your butt out of bed and go to class.
2) I have no idea what you will use any of this for...and neither do you. Just yesterday I was sitting in my office trying to remember how to work with natural logarithms. If you would've asked me my freshman year what I would ever use a natural logarithm for, I would have told you I have no clue. And that's the point. There's not a single professor who can predict what you will be or how you will use anything you learn. And neither can you. Don't dismiss learning just because you don't know what you are going to do with it. Learn a lot. You just might use it some day. And even if you don't use it yourself, you might have to help your kids with their homework someday.
3) Think big: A lot of students show up at college thinking they either already know or need to quickly figure out who they are going to be for the rest of their life. They think they need to narrow themselves down to fit in a little box of a major. Don't think that way. You have the rest of your life to limit yourself. Now is the time to explore, to think different, to express ideas and be proven wrong, to express ideas and prove your professors wrong, to meet new people, to find out who they are, and then to find out who you are. In short, now is a time to learn. So don't limit yourself by what you think others want you to be. Be yourself, once you figure out who that is.
Even though we will miss seeing you every day, we wouldn't change a thing. We are proud of who you are and who you are going to become.
Now get your butt out of bed and go to class.

Mendis' extraordinary 6 for 13 in the Asia Cup final has been voted the ODI Bowling Performance of the Year in the Cricinfo Awards. A look back at the performance
Sidharth Monga
January 16, 2009
Best ODI Bowling Performance
Ajantha Mendis
6 for 13 v India
Asia Cup final, Karachi
A day before the final of the Asia Cup, Kumar Sangakkara spent all his time in the nets batting against Ajantha Mendis. He, and Sri Lanka, knew something the rest of the world had only a vague idea of.
Earlier in the tournament Sri Lanka had rested Mendis for the league match against India, giving him the big stage to announce himself. It was the most delicious build-up. They could have knocked India out of the tournament, but they chose, instead, to hide Mendis till the final.
Now was the time Mendis had to prove he was worth hiding. On a pitch where 300 had been the par score, sometimes chased with ease, Sri Lanka had managed 275, and were facing a marauding Virender Sehwag. Here Mendis was, playing in only his eighth ODI, bowling the 10th over, ahead of Muttiah Muralitharan, trying to halt the runaway train that was Sehwag, a big final and a pre-conceived reputation on the line.
Now there must be something about the upbringing of Sehwag, but he can't bring himself to respect spinners. The first ball from Mendis, Sehwag looked to charge out but had to change to a defensive lunge when Mendis bowled flatter. The second ball, Sehwag did manage to charge out, and was beaten by the fast legbreak that the world would come to know as the carrom ball. Mendis had arrived. Two balls later, Yuvraj Singh played all over a straight delivery, finding his off stump pegged back. In one over the impact had been made.
Mendis had created chaos. No one knew quite what to expect - not the Indian batsmen, not the commentators, not the experts in the studios, not even the umpires (quite a few lbws were not given in the succeeding overs because this kind of stuff had not been seen before and took time and visual evidence to become believable). Amid the mayhem, Mahela Jayawardene seemed almost as kicked as Mendis when the wickets fell, getting into ecstatic little jigs he, Captain Cool, is not known for.
Suresh Raina was the next to go, in Mendis' third over. On the surface it was a horrible pull shot, but Mendis had given away so little until then that the runs had stopped coming at all - even a slightly shorter delivery was a bonus and had to be put away to put Mendis off. This one sped off at pitching, and beat a hapless Raina.
Rohit Sharma was made to look the silliest - in Mendis' next over. Rohit played Mendis like an offspinner, and looked to nudge one off the pads. The carrom ball broke away and hit the back pad; Rohit looked leg side, and walked pavilion-wards. In a jiffy 76 for 1 had become 97 for 5, and with Murali yet to come Sri Lanka had all but won.
Perhaps Jayawardene got greedy and, wanting to keep the mystery intact for future games, took Mendis off once the big impact was made. MS Dhoni then played a responsible knock, knitting a partnership together with Robin Uthappa and then with Irfan Pathan.
Then Mendis came back for the grand sign-off. In the second over of his second spell, he fooled Irfan with a googly, and then ripped through RP Singh's defence with a carrom ball next ball. The hat-trick ball was the straighter one. Pragyan Ojha played outside the line, and a big lbw shout ensued, but Simon Taufel chose to be circumspect. Wonder if the umpires will change their outlook now that they know what Mendis is capable of.
"It was like you were playing something else, and the ball was something else. I won't really blame the batsman, we couldn't pick the deliveries," Dhoni, who scored a fighting 49, said later.

Likeable, hard-working and skilful, 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
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

"Was very happy with the whole process of selection, ordering, review and finished product.

The proof review was very quickly emailed and the shower invitations arrived even sooner than I expected. It was a pleasure."
"I was very pleased with the total experience. The company was easy to work with and I was extremely pleased with the invitation. I was giving another shower soon after this one and knew I was going to use the Wedding Paper Divas. So hapy with this company."
"I liked having the product reviewed by one of your professionals and the suggestions that were made. That was very helpful. The invitation was great quality and the printing clear."

I am writing about the March 2 front page story: "Medical marijuana, prescriptions boost number of DUIs in Mesa." Not only does marijuana not impair driving ability, perhaps it improves it. I suggest that the readers Google: "Medical marijuana and highway deaths." Then you will see that states that have medical marijuana laws have substantially fewer highway deaths than states that don't.
Marijuana metabolites stay in a person's blood system for up to three weeks, long after its effects have worn off. How would the readers feel if they received a DUI two weeks after they consumed a single glass of wine or bottle of beer?
I am disappointed that the East Valley Tribune would publish such a story. When the EVTrib was published by Freedom Communications it was an excellent newspaper. Now it is not.

After dropping the Albert Anastasia EP, followed by his fourth studio album, Teflon Don, we figured that Rick Ross had (w)rapped up 2010. Well, we were wrong. Instead, Ricky decided to give fans an early Christmas present in the form of Ashes to Ashes, a mixtape loaded with eleven new tracks and featuring the likes of Wale, T.I., and Ludacris. Here at the DJBooth, we'd like to ring in the new year with one of the project's standout cuts, Black Man's Dream. Produced by Toronto's go-to hitmaker Boi-1da, this heavy hitter is full of hard snares and snappy horns that provide the groundwork over which Luda and Ross lay eloquent, yet tough verses. Comparing himself to a mobster has become the norm for Ross ("Head of my family like a Don, Sicily"), while Luda provides a hook and an accompanying verse, both of which add the icing to this gangster rap cake known as a Black Man's Dream. Will Ross top his epically successful 2010 in 2011? Only time will tell.

From dizzying altitudes to scorching deserts, these 11 ultramarathons, ironman triathlons, and obstacle courses call for almost super human strength.
Jungle Marathon - Floresta National de Tapajos, Amazon Rainforest, Brazil
Held in Brazil's Amazon rainforest in October, Jungle Marathon offers two races to choose from: 63 miles in four stages, or 150 miles in six stages. Racers are required to carry food and provisions, and race officials provide bottled water only at checkpoints. You'll face all the hazards the jungle has to offer (think: swamps, anacondas, and poisonous plants). You'll sleep in strung-up hammock between stages, with the only distractions being questioning your sanity, your aching body, and the jungle wildlife. (junglemarathon.com)
