I feel very let down by Sangakkara, Jayawardene: Jayasuriya
Colombo: Sri Lanka Cricket chief selector Sanath Jayasuriya has expressed disappointment at not being kept in the loop as far as the retirement plans of Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene from T20 Internationals were concerned.
"I feel very let down by them. I`ve been very transparent with them. If they`re even resting, I`ve been calling them and telling them what`s going on. I never ever dealt controversially with any senior player," Jayasuriya was quoted as saying by a leading cricket website.
Both Sangakkara and Jayawardene made their retirement plans public over the last couple of days. Just before departing to the World T20, Sangakkara had told a daily that he would quit T20 internationals, while Jayawardene announced his retirement via the ICC`s Twitter Mirror campaign, after the team touched down in Bangladesh.
"When I became a selector there were a lot of stories and comments in the media, that we were going to do this and that, but we didn`t do anything of that sort. "I`ve always handled the seniors in a different way. Whatever respect should be given to that senior player has been given, as a selection panel."

Signet Maritime Corporation contracts Patti Marine Enterprises, Inc. in Pensacola, Florida, to construct tow Robert Allan designed tugs.
Construction commenced in November 2012 with an expected delivery of December 2013 for the first vessel and March 2014 for the second vessel.
Continuing the longstanding Signet tradition of naming vessels in honor of America's Cup winners, the new RAmparts 3200 ASD tugs will be named M/V Signet Intrepid and M/V Signet Vigilant.
These vessels are the fifth and sixth ASD tugboats delivered for Signet in less than three years and will operate from the International Operations Center in Ingleside, Texas, where they will primarily be used to perform offshore and inshore rig escort, barge, and subsea support work.
Once again, Signet reaffirms its commitment to building environmentally conscious tugboats that will adhere to the Environmental Protection Agency's Tier III emissions regulations. The tugs will also feature C175-16 CAT engines, Markey Model DEPCF-52S winch, and Rolls Royce US 255 controllable pitch Z-drives. With 83 tons of Bollard Pull, these vessels will be powerful and offer improved reliability to handle the expanding needs of the marine transportation industry.

Almost a month ago, we quoted a Neowin report that said the first Windows 7 release candidate could arrive as early as April 10. Today, Neowin taps Russian website Wzor, which claims Microsoft's official schedule calls for a public RC1 build release "during the last week of May 2009."
Testers will get Windows 7 release candidate "escrow" builds in the fourth week of April, and reportedly, Microsoft will coordinate the Windows 7 RC1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 release schedules. According to Neowin, an escrow build is a version of the software "where development halts and developers & beta testers start testing the product for any show-stopper bugs."
The same site also dug up some dirt on the Office 14 schedule. Word is that the first Office 14 beta will come out in July but won't be available to the public. A second beta will roll out in November, and Microsoft plans to have the software ready in about a year—"early March 2010."

Mark Dampier: China's growth goals catch investors' eyes
Friday 02 August 2013
Despite its strong rate of economic growth in recent years, China has been a disappointing place to invest. This can be explained, at least in part, by the dominance of state-owned enterprises (SOEs), which account for a large proportion of China's stock market indices.
In the past week I have spoken with Anthony Bolton in relation to Fidelity China Special Situations plc; and Phillip Ehrmann, the manager of the Jupiter China Fund. They agree the days of double-digit GDP growth in China are over. The government is pursuing a more balanced economic growth policy, realising it is quality, not quantity, that counts.
To achieve more sustainable economic growth the focus is shifting from low-value exports, high investment and infrastructure spending; to value-added manufacturing, domestic consumption and a services-based economy. As part of this transition, SOEs are likely to be a less dominant force. In the new economic order smaller, privately owned companies should be able to take advantage of deregulation and reform, freer movement of capital, anti-corruption policies and the evolution of online retailing across China.
Both Messrs Bolton and Ehrmann have tended to focus more on higher-risk smaller and medium-sized companies. They have been early with their move into this type of company and as a result both managers have had a tough time.
These types of company can languish as big international investors tend to focus on the larger companies in an index, while overlooking smaller counterparts which can be harder to buy and sell quickly in large volumes. This is another area which might improve with China's ongoing development. As more domestic investors save for the future and participate more in the financial markets, more interest should be paid to smaller and medium-sized companies.
The economic reforms currently being enacted are all part of the Chinese government's five-year plan. There has been some disillusionment over the speed with which the government is achieving its stated aims. It is important to remember the transition from export-driven to consumption-driven economy will not happen overnight, or even in five years. It is a multi-year theme that will have setbacks along the way. The main thing is the transition has begun.
Healthcare is one area in which changes are likely to be seen, according to Messrs Bolton Ehrmann. Sales in the pharmaceutical industry are expected to grow at an annualised rate of 22 per cent over the next two to three years, driven mainly by rapidly rising income. Healthcare and pharmaceutical companies account for only around 1 per cent of the Chinese stock market by market capitalisation. If growth hits the levels being predicted, it would not be far-fetched to envisage healthcare and pharmaceutical companies accounting for a much bigger proportion of the market.
One area Messrs Bolton and Ehrmann have avoided is the banking sector, which is getting considerable publicity, particularly the shadow banking sector where there has probably been large misallocation of capital. That said, while non-performing loans are extremely low in the banks, making valuations look attractive, the underwriting quality of these loans is yet to be tested.
Messrs Bolton and Ehrmann tend to look for strong management teams with shareholders' interests at heart. They also look for businesses with good long-term growth prospects and strong cash generation.
While there are similar themes running through the funds and both have a bias towards smaller and medium-sized companies, they are different portfolios and will perform differently. Fidelity China Special Situations is also a closed-ended investment trust with a high level of gearing, so will only suit investors prepared to accept the additional risk and volatility this brings. Mr Bolton is also due to step down at the end of March 2014 and this must be taken into account. For investors who accept these risks it could look attractive on a discount of around 7 per cent.
The story in China is one of gradual change. As more people became disillusioned with China, investment valuations have fallen. Both funds have seen an improvement in performance over the past year as small and medium-sized companies have begun to perform better. For investors seeking a single-country Asian fund, drip-feeding into China at the current low valuations could prove more profitable in the coming years than it has over the last few years. Whether investors can be patient enough is another question.

Former Tunisian president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali 311 (R).
(photo credit:REUTERS/Zoubeir Souissi)
TUNIS - A Tunisian court sentenced former president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali in absentia on Monday to 35 years in jail, six months after his overthrow in a revolution helped to inspire the "Arab Spring."Ben Ali, who has been in Saudi Arabia since he was forced from power, was found guilty after just one day of deliberation of theft and of illegally possessing jewelery and large sums of cash.RELATED:Ousted Ben Ali at trial: I was tricked into leaving
TunisiaThe same sentence was handed down to his wife Leila Trabelsi, a former hairdresser whose lavish lifestyle and clique of wealthy relatives were symbols of the corruption of the Ben Ali era for many Tunisians.Ben Ali and his wife flew to Saudi Arabia on Jan. 14 after mass protests against his 23-year rule. The Tunisian government said in February it had asked Saudi Arabia to extradite Ben Ali.During his time in office, members of his extended family accumulated fortunes while his security forces routinely arrested anyone who dared to dissent.Tunisia's revolt electrified millions across the Arab world who suffer similarly from high unemployment, rising prices and repressive governments. Ben Ali's case has been watched closely in Egypt, where former president Hosni Mubarak is due to stand trial over the killing of protesters.In a statement issued by his lawyers earlier on Monday, Ben Ali denied all the charges against him, saying that he was the victim of a political plot. He said he had been tricked into leaving the country."What a moment," said Meriam, a student who was one of a handful of people waiting late into the evening outside the courthouse to hear the verdict. "After 23 years when he manipulated the courts, today a very fair court has returned to us a little bit of our honor.""My brother was put in prison for nothing ... and the other one was forced to stay in Europe in exile for nine years," she said. "This (verdict) gives us some peace."StealingJudge Touhami Hafian, who read out the verdict and sentence in the Palace of Justice in the Tunisian capital, also ruled that Ben Ali and his wife would have to pay fines totalling 91 million Tunisian dinars ($65.6 million).The judge said the verdict on other charges, relating to illegal possession of drugs and weapons, would be handed down on June 30, according to a Reuters reporter who was in the courtroom.During the hearing, a prosecutor had asked the judge to hand down "the most severe punishments for those who betrayed the trust and stole the money of the people for their personal gain .... They did not stop stealing for 23 years".Ben Ali's defense lawyers refused to comment after the sentence was passed. Abderrazak Kilani, a senior lawyer who was not involved in the trial, told Reuters: "They have been given the heaviest sentence in this type of case."Earlier, Ben Ali's lawyers had given the first detailed account of the events that led to his departure from Tunisia.At the time, thousands of protesters had gathered in the center of the capital Tunis to demand that he step down, the culmination of three weeks of demonstrations which police tried to disperse by firing on the crowds.The statement issued by his lawyers said that the head of presidential security had come to Ben Ali in his office and told him that "friendly" foreign intelligence services had passed on information about a plot to assassinate the president.He was persuaded to get on a plane that was taking his wife and children to safety in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, but with the intention of returning immediately, the statement said."He boarded the plane with his family after ordering the crew to wait for him in Jeddah. But after his arrival in Jeddah, the plane returned to Tunisia without waiting for him, contrary to his orders."He did not leave his post as president of the republic and hasn't fled Tunisia as he was falsely accused of doing," the statement said.Ben Ali's version of events is unlikely to draw sympathy from the majority of Tunisians. They are now enjoying relative freedom after decades when most people would not speak openly for fear of arrest by the secret police.In his statement released on Monday, Ben Ali said the weapons he was accused of possessing illegally were gifts from other heads of state and the jewellery had been given as presents to his wife by foreign dignitaries.The money and drugs had been planted in his home and the presidential palace after his departure as part of the plot against him, he said in the statement.

Newtown kids to be featured on E! Grammy preshow
(AP) - A group of children from Newtown, Conn. who recently recorded a version of "Over the Rainbow" are preparing for a live appearance during the E! Network's Grammy Awards preshow on Sunday.
"American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest will be flying a crew to Connecticut and plans to interview the children via satellite during the E!'s "Live From the Red Carpet" preshow, said Tim Hayes, who co-produced the recording.
The children also will be singing Carly Rae Jepson's hit song, "Call Me Maybe," he said.
The group of 21 kids, some of whom attend Sandy Hook Elementary School, recorded "Over the Rainbow" last month with singer-songwriter Ingrid Michaelson at the Fairfield, Conn., home of Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth, two former members of the Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club rock bands.
Sabrina Post, who runs a performing arts school in Newtown and directs the group, said the kids wanted to do something with their talent to honor their friends and neighbors who died in the Dec. 14 massacre at the school, and help the community heal.
"This opportunity to do something positive lets the kids know that although a lot of things happen in our world that are not pleasant, like this that happened with us in Newtown, there are many giving people and wonderful things that can come out of life, so don't get discouraged," she said. "It teaches them to use their gifts to work through things."
The children also have sung the song on ABC's Good Morning America and at a benefit concert that featured artists such as Paul Simon and Johnny Winter. Some of them are also appearing on Katie Couric's syndicated show this month, Hayes said.
He said they have no plans to record anything else, or have the kids make any more public appearances.
"We know the kids involved have had a wonderful experience, but we think this chapter is now done, and we want these kids to get back to being kids," he said.
Copies of their version of "Over the Rainbow" are being sold on Amazon and iTunes.
The proceeds from the download of the single benefit the United Way of Western Connecticut and the Newtown Youth Academy. The nonprofit sports center opened free programs to Newtown children after the shooting and hopes to expand free programming.
The Grammy performance follows Sunday's appearance by another group of Newtown children at the Super Bowl.
Jennifer Hudson joined a chorus from Sandy Hook Elementary School to sing "America the Beautiful" before the game. The emotional performance had some players on the sideline on the verge of tears.

What does the UN have to worry about? It isn't like the current
administration is in the habbit of spying on people contrary to the law and the
Constitution. They should trust Obama, just look at how many times he has told
the US that there isn't a domestic spying program.
The UN should feel safe in Obama's word, because we all know that he has the most open and honest administration on record.

Frankly I have so little respect for the UN that I hope we spy on it in spite of any rules. Most of the people who work there are anti American anyway, and I'd like to know what they are up to. Diplomatic pouches come into the country with no inspection by U.S. authorities. UN employees have comitted crimes and are not held accountable because of diplomatic immunity. I wish the UN would just pack up and move to where they belong. A third world country. Mogodishu Somalia might be a good choice.

I'd seen a couple parts of episodes awhile ago but a couple years ago I saw a couple full episodes and thought it was awesome. I think I know how it's going to end though. I can't wait for the 11th season.

I was sort-of mellow about the story up toseason 4. But with my exposure to fan fic's and the complexity of pro LGBTQ stories out there, I fell in love with the fandom and fans. Such great people, I guess Misha Collins and the Random acts charity was the clincher. Can't not love a show with such nice people.

Lace Star with Mini Glass Ball - Set of 3 Christmas Ornament
Personalized Christmas Ornament
Intricate lace stars surround the hand painted glass balls in this set of three ornaments. Made by skilled craftsmen, you will be impressed with the attention to the details. Each ball is hand painted with a snow covered roof house. A navy blue night sky with gold stars provides the background. Glitter is use to make the snow look like it is glistening in the moonlight. Hang all three on your Christmas tree or give them individually to someone who will appreciate the craftsmanship put into making these special ornaments.
Material: German Lace and Glass Ball

The site was easy to navigate, gave clear descriptions of the items as well as clear directions for personalization of the item selected. Only wish there was the option to have something personalized on the bck of the ornament since the site mentioned they would do this if there was not a place for the year on the front. (would love to have her birth date and death date on there.) Overall, very pleased with my shopping experience and look forward to receiving the ornament. Evelyn R."

I doubt there will be backlash for the subscription thing. I mean Funi said they planned on having a HD subscription service more the a year back so people knew it was coming at some point. It's not like it's being forced on anyone either.
Excited to see they are not only streaming Guilty Crown but also planned a BD release which is nice, Although I am pretty confused by the .hack thing. I don't know many people who still follow that franchise and it's popularity has pretty much died down(and to be honest I don't really know if that popularity was ever really all that big or not) It's one of those shows that doesn't interest me at all. It's so clogged with so many different games, manga and anime it's nearly impossible to follow and quite frankly I never thought the quality of the series was high enough to put in such a large effort following it. But again that is just me and i'm sure there are fans out there very happy to see it coming.

If Guilty Crown is even worth watching or buying is still undecided..I'll see how the first few episodes are..really doesn't seem like anything special but perhaps it will surprise me.

|Awesome that FUNimation picked up Quantum and surprising seeing as all previous .hack// Animes were released by Bandai Entertainment. On another note I think this also puts a little glimmer of hope for a US Release of the Movie.

|Oh nice, .hack//Quantum is the only bit of the .hack franchise I've seen so far but I enjoyed it and wouldn't mind picking it up sometime. Also interested in Guility Crown so I'm glad to see it's getting simulcast and a same day one too. Doubt I'll do Funi's new subscription service but I don't mind, it's nice to see things in HD but that's what BR are for after all.

.hack//QUANTUM is actually a very well done series with VERY high production values. It's beautiful, the music is gorgeous, and the story is great and you don't need ANY information from prior series to understand.
Great for long-time fans and superb for those who've never given it a try. It's far more fun and entertaining than previous series since there is a good balance of action, story, and exposition.
Give it a try.

"elite subcription" either needs a [sic] or a spellcheck
I couldn't get into .hack//Roots, I don't think any games after the original four were ever released here and I've not read any of the novels from that era - but I have seen Quantum and it is rather good.

|Since Guilty Crown is a noitaminA title and I feel like it will be better executed than Fractale, I'm definitely going to check it out. I'm glad Funimation is confident enough to get the DVD/Blu-ray license for it this early too.

So I guess it's official Bandai has no interest in continuing the .hack franchise outside of Japan. First they give .hack/GU Trilogy a sub only release (not a huge shocker, really), then completely blow off releasing the final game in the franchise, .hack/Link, outside of Japan, and now they're letting another company handle the latest OAV. I'm thankful to FUNi for picking this up, but I'm going to remain peeved at Bandai for a good long while.
My only backlash is that I want an annual subscription rate. Otherwise, it sounds like a great service.

|I potentially might be interested in this premium streaming service. I'll wait until I hear how the video quality is (and whether it will even be available in Canada, of course), but it might be a good way to see some titles legitimately that I have a sort of interest in seeing but not necessarily an interest in owning hard copies. A wait and see on this, I guess.

|Well, color me surprised. Im an outsider to the whole franchise, but I neber would have expected that a company besides Bandai would pick up anything related to .Hack. Not sure if I'll watch myself, as I haven't seen any part of the series, but Im sure fans will be glad that it's being released by someone.

To a degree, he carries this out in his two-volume series Gyo from 200...
