Right, that's the end of the action. It's been a fantastic end to a fantastic Games, with Geraint Thomas's dramatic victory in the rain providing a fitting finale. Daniel Harris will be with you from 8.30pm to talk you through the closing ceremony. See you on Australia's Gold Coast in 2018 with any luck.
Gold for Australia!
A big forehand from Cameron Pilley win the match 10-11, 11-7, 11-9 for the the Aussies. It's a second gold of the afternoon for his partner David Palmer, who came out of retirement to be in Glasgow, and triumphed in the mixed doubles earlier after a long career chasing illusive medals. Afterwards it's all smiles and Nick Matthew concedes: "Australia deserved it after what was the match of the tournament". A great way to finish, even if England narrowly missed out on gold.
Match point to Australia, but Palmer looks like he's got nothing left in the tank. He tries a cheeky shot through his legs, but it brushes off Palmer and so it's a let. Palmer offers a hand in apology but Grant's having none of it.
David Palmer trips Adrian Grant, unintentionally of course, but the Englishman is not happy and points a finger at the Australian veteran. It's 9-9, all very tense. Who will hold their nerve?
On the squash court Australia have taken charge of the final. It now stands at 9-6. But wait, two quick points fro England make it 9-8. This is really coming down to the wire. Three points in a row would win it for the English.
Earlier Geraint Thomas won Wales' first ever men's cycling gold in the road race. Torrential rain and a brave break from Peter Kennaugh made for a fascinating race. Here is the wires report.
Geraint Thomas won Commonwealth Games gold for Wales in the men's road race on the final day of Glasgow 2014.
Thomas, the time-trial bronze medallist on Thursday, triumphed in torrential rain on the 12-lap, 168-kilometres undulating course in a race which became about survival and brute strength. The 28-year-old from Cardiff, who finished the Tour de France last Sunday, twice suffered front-wheel punctures, including in the last six kilometres as his rivals neared. But Thomas soloed to victory by one minute 21 seconds as Jack Bauer of New Zealand beat Scott Thwaites of England to silver, the Yorkshireman having to settle for bronze.
The Isle of Man's Peter Kennaugh, who won the island's only medal of the 2014 Games with points race silver on the track, led on his own for 116 kilometres, but ultimately in vain. With Mark Cavendish, recovering from shoulder surgery, in the team car, Kennaugh was the Isle of Man's undisputed leader and attacked after 3km.
Read the full report here.
The England women's hockey captain Kate Richardson-Walsh, who won a medal at a fourth successive Commonwealths, has been given the honour of carrying her country's flag at the closing ceremony this evening. The 34-year-old led her team to silver in Glasgow and was selected for the role in a vote by her fellow competitors.
"I am emotional, as always,' she said. "It is such an honour, I think particularly because the whole of team England has performed so well. It just adds that extra bit of pride to be carrying the flag at the closing ceremony. I am just so excited. I am just hoping I don't trip over, to be honest.
Australia have stormed back to take the second game of the squash men's doubles final with the help of some wonderfully instinctive hitting from David Palmer. The Australians are making a concerted effort to keep the ball away from the world champion Nick Matthew, who shares words with Palmer at the turnaround. I interviewed Matthew not long ago. Nice guy, but don't mess with him on the court.
Gabby Adcock has been outlining her plans for the Rio Olympics after she won the mixed badminton doubles with her husband Chris. The pair made easy work of England team-mates Chris Langridge and Heather Olver as they cruised to gold in the Commonwealth Games mixed doubles. Gabby, 23, said:
"Rio is still quite a while away, there is still a lot between now and then. But the confidence I have got from this week, the experience of playing in front of a big crowd in a big arena, will help to build a stronger character. I think we dealt with pressure situations very well. There is going to be pressure at Rio, so this adds to that. It's all learning.
"It has been the toughest, both physically and mentally, two weeks of my life in my badminton career. It will definitely make me stronger as an athlete."
England have taken the first game of the Ashes clash on the squash court. Adrian Grant produced a sublime forehand to win it on sudden death after some impressive power hitting from his senior partner Nick Matthew. David Palmer and Cameron Pilley will need to turn it on now to stop England crowning a fantastic Commonwealth Games by winning its final gold.
Geraint Thomas says in an interview at the finish line that he wanted to stop at the start of the race.
"It was a such a grim day and I felt terrible at the start but luckily everyone came down to my level. Then when I had that puncture I thought 'what have i got to do' but luckily it worked out.
It's Scott Thwaites against Jack Bauer in a sprint finish for second. Who has anything left in their legs? Bauer bides his time then jumps off Thwaites' wheel to take it on the line. It's silver for New Zealand and bronze for England.
Gold for Wales!
Geraint Thomas crosses the finish line. The first ever Welsh gold in men's cycling. What a performance! What a race!
Geraint Thomas is in to the final kilometre and Jack Bauer and Scott Thwaites will not stop him now. Even a flat tyre could not stop him now. It will be glory for Wales – but who will take silver?
What a rider Thomas is! He must have though his chance of gold had done. But he has picked himself up and begun to re-establish his lead at the front. It's now 25 seconds again and he is on the final climb. There is just 3km to go. This is the 456th climb of the day. Surely he will not lose it now? I've said that before.
No, No, No! Thomas has a puncture. His team is changing his wheel. It's such a slow change. The two chasers are closing down on him. How unlucky is that. But he's back on and still has a lead for 20 seconds. What drama. This is still on.
Geraint Thomas has destroyed the other two members of the leading group with that lightning break. He's now 45 seconds ahead on the final lap. This is a gold medal-winning move without a doubt. What a devastating attack from the Welshman. Jack Bauer and Scott Thwaites are still side by side in the dace for silver.
The squash men's doubles final between England v Australia has started. Sheffield native Nick Matthew, who won the singles title, and Adrian Grant are up against David Palmer and Cameron Pilley.
On the rain-socked streets of Glasgow the leading three riders are still wheel-to-wheel as they approach the final lap. So far no one has tried to jump clear on his own, but now's the time. As I speak Geraint Thomas makes his move. The gap is opening up on a slight climb. The other two look like they've got nothing left. The gap is already 20m. Will this be decisive?
Somewhat surprisingly, the badminton has provided some of the best celebratory pictures of the Games. After the on court ecstasy of displayed by husband-and-wife-duo Chris and Gabby Adcock earlier, Vivian Kah Mun Hoo and Khe Wei Woon made for good viewing in victory in the women's doubles:
The riders in the road race are saturated, as is the Guardian's Sean Ingle no doubt. Even so, our man on the ground has tweeted an interesting statistic that gives some idea of just how treacherous today's race has been:
Gold for Australia!
David Palmer and Rachel Grinham stayed strong to win the badminton mixed doubles final. The English pair of Peter Barker and Alison Waters fought hard in the second set but eventually went down 11-8, 11-10.
Two laps and 26km to go in the road race now, and the medals are definitely between Thomas, Thwaites and Bauer, mechanical failure and accidents withstanding. The front three lead by two minutes form the rest, who are falling backwards all the time. Thwaites may be the fastest sprinter in the group, but will he be able to live with Thomas's power. Cue Bauer blazing away to glory.
Glasgow Airport correction now, and I can reveal that flights are being diverted because of the weather, but it is not closed. Thanks to Simon McMahon for prompting me to look a little deeper into this matter. Misinformation like this is uncalled or when Gatwick is in such a mess over baggage. Simon wrote:
Afternoon Rob. Unless there are thunder and lightning storms around, I'm pretty sure Glasgow Airport will be open. If it closed due to rain, it would only be open about 6 days a year. Fair play to the cyclists though, conditions do look treacherous.
Bad news for England on the badminton court, where Australia's David Palmer and Rachel Grinham have won the first set 11-8 against Peter Barker and Alison Waters. Plenty still to play for though.
Peter Kennaugh has been overhauled – and three riders have flown past him as if he wasn't there. The leading pack is made up of England's Scott Thwaites and New Zealand's Jack Bauer as well as Geraint Thomas of Wales. There is the best part of 50km and an hour's racing to go but it looks like the medals could be between these three. David Millar is now 11th more than a minute adrift.
Riding through the driving rain has taken it's toll on Peter Kennaugh, who is about to get caught at the front. The small group set to swallow him up includes Geraint Thomas, who is going for his second medal of the Games after his bronze in Thursday's time trial.
Interesting news from the wires now, where it seems India's Commonwealth Games team is about to get tough with a couple of wayward officials.
Action will be taken against two Indian officials if reports of their misbehaviour on the sidelines of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow are proved, the country's sports minister said on Sunday.
Local media reported a top official of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) and a wrestling referee were arrested in Glasgow in separate incidents and would appear in court on Monday.
The IOA official has been charged with drink driving while the referee has been accused of assault, television channels said adding the officials were not part of the Indian contingent in Glasgow.
"If whatever the media have reported so far is right, definitely our ministry will take appropriate action in this regard," sports minister Sarbananda Sonowal told reporters.
IOA president N Ramachandran said he was waiting for a detailed report before commenting on the issue.
David Millar looked like being dropped from the peleton chasing Peter Kennaugh in the road race, but has somehow clung on. Better still for the Scotsman hoping to end his career on a high in front of his home fans is the news that the 14-man chasing group are making serious inroads into Kennaugh's lead. The Manxman is now just 1min 15secs ahead. Could Millar's dream of a podium finish be about to come true just a couple of months after he was overlooked for the Tour de France?
Gold for Malaysia
Khe Wei Woon & Vivian Kah Mun Hoo beat Jwala Gutta and Ashwini Ponnappa 21-17, 23-21 in a closely contested final. The second set in particular was brilliant, but the Indians were punished for failing to take their chances.
Breaking news: Glasgow airport has been closed because of the terrible weather.
Bronze for England!
Daryl Selby and James Willstrop have beaten Alan Clyne and Harry Leitch 11-8, 11-7 in the bronze medal match. The English pair were always in control and their team-mates Nick Matthew and Adrian Grant will hope to follow suit against Australians David Palmer and Cameron Pilley in the final which will start shortly.
Usain Bolt has continued his Glasgow 2014 charm offensive, by praising the energy of the fans:
Kennaugh is getting some support form fellow Manxman Mark Cavendish, who is feeding him gels and advice from the team car. With 75km to go the chasing pack are starting to get busy, and the lead is down to 1min 49secs.
Over to the road race and leader Peter Kennaugh's victory hopes almost slipped away in the atrocious conditions. The Isle of Man rider had to take evasive action to avoid ploughing into a discarded umbrella on the course. Fortunately he had his wits about him and still leads by close to two minutes from a chasing pack which is losing riders all the time and now numbers around 25.
Thanks Ian and for all you sports fans out there I bring news from the squash court, where England have taken the first game in the men's doubles' losers final. Worst still for the hosts, Alan Clyne and Harry Leitch trail Daryl Selby and James Willstrop 5-3 in the second.
And with that I am handing over to my colleague, Rob Bleaney who will guide you through the rest of the afternoon's action. Thanks for all the emails, tweets and comments. Bye!
Gold for Australia!
The Diamonds have come out in the final two quarters and absolutely destroyed New Zealand in the netball final. They take gold by a 18-point margin, beating their old enemy 58-40.
Gold for Australia!
There was plenty of rain but no miracle comeback for India in the men's hockey final. Chris Ciriello starred for the Aussies scoring three of their four goals.
Gold for India!
And it has gone to Kashyap Parupalli in the badminton men's singles. He beat Derek Wong of Singapore 21-19 in the deciding game. Parupalli had won the opening game 21-14 and Wong took the second 21-11.
It's almost all over for India. Australia have doubled their lead to make it 4-0. One of those came from Chris Ciriello, which means he has a final hat-trick to his name, and Eddie Ockenden got the other. Elsewhere, Australia have taken control of the netball final too. They have a lead of ten points with just over a minute left in the third quarter.
A bit of drama in the cycling. Geraint Thomas, who recently signed a new two-year deal with Team Sky, has had some mechanical failure with his back wheel and that has cost him a huge amount of time. He could be about 1km behind the rest. Meanwhile, with 56kms and four laps completed, Kennaugh's lead over the peloton stands at one minute and 49 seconds.
Earlier this morning, Jamaica beat England to bronze in the netball. Here is what the wires have to say about that match:
England suffered a hat-trick of heartbreaks after defeat to Jamaica denied them Commonwealth Games bronze.
A day after blowing their chances of making the gold medal match for the first time in the dying seconds against New Zealand, Anna Mayes' side went down 52-48 at the SSE Hydro to miss out on a medal.
This match also looked set to go to the wire with the scores level at 37-37 going into the final quarter, but England's level dropped when it mattered most as they slipped from 48-47 behind to 51-47 down and from that point there was no way back.
At least there was no individual mistake in the final seconds to look back on, as there had been against the Silver Ferns and, in the pool stage, against Australia. Both of those matches were lost by a single point. This time England, bronze medallists at the last two
Commonwealths, were just not good enough. Kadeen Corbin, whose error proved so costly against New Zealand, responded with 22 goals from 26 attempts, while Jo Harten scored 26 from 29, but it was Romelda Aiken's 44 from 52 for Jamaica, including 15 in the final quarter, which proved invaluable.
"Today we didn't bring it," said goalkeeper Geva Mentor, who was left battered and bruised by a physical contest. Jamaica were the best team on the day, they held strong all the way through and withstood the pressure we kept applying, but we didn't capitalise when we did get that ball.
"It was very physical, you can tell that from my fat lip and I've got a shiner coming up as well. It's a shame the umpires can't see the retaliation, but we just have to withstand that. We have to be quick enough and skilful enough to be able to lose the body so we don't get caught in the face. Yesterday's was definitely [harder to swallow]. I'm not even upset, I think it just sums up this tournament for me. Anger will probably start to set in and a few different emotions, but at the moment I am pretty emotionless."
Jamaican were well-beaten 57-42 in their semi-final by the Australia team England ran so close, but made changes for Sunday's clash and they worked. England led 13-11 after the first quarter, trailed 25-24 at halfway and were back level at the end of the third period as the momentum swung from one side to the other.
That run of three unanswered goals in the final period left England with too much to do, though, and had the Jamaican substitutes celebrating at the side of the court as the clock counted down. Mayes said: "I think we were a little bit tentative, a little bit nervous, especially in that first half. We did wear them down defensively, but we just weren't clinical enough when we needed to be.
"They fed Romelda well, they converted when they needed to and she rebounded well when she missed, so that was difficult."
It's half-time in the netball. New Zealand are leading Australia 28-24. As for the hockey, the second half is well under way but India have not been able to find a way back into the game just yet and so it's still 2-0 to Australia.
There has been a crash and it's seen Rohan Dennis go down hard. Too hard. He climbs into the car and he is out of the race Kennaugh is still out on his lonesome. He is now one minute and ten seconds ahead of the rest, which is still not enough if he wants to ride this one all the way to victory.
Some news from the wires ahead of tonight's closing ceremony.
Bowls silver medallist Neil Booth will be Northern Ireland's flag bearer at Sunday evening's Commonwealth Games closing ceremony at Hampden Park.
The 46-year-old Randalstown man, along with team-mates Paul Daly and Neil Mulholland, collected silver after losing to South Africa in the men's triples final last Monday - adding to a Commonwealth medal collection including gold in Kuala Lumpur (1998), bronze in Manchester (2002) and silver in Melbourne (2006).
"Neil has had a great career, winning four medals in five Commonwealth Games," Northern Ireland chef de mission Robert McVeigh said. "He is a respected member of Team NI and many athletes value the experience he brings. We look forward to attending the closing ceremony and celebrating the success of the Games with the organisers."
Northern Ireland had to wait until Saturday to secure their first gold of the Games, winning two on the penultimate day of action through boxers Paddy Barnes and Michael Conlan.
The team will take home 12 medals in total from Glasgow 2014 – nine from boxing, plus bronze in women's pairs bowls along with the men's triples silver, and Lisa Kearney's judo bronze.
Here is what Scotland's Kirsty Gilmour had to say after winning silver in the women's badminton:
I'm trying to be disappointed but everyone's being so positive. It's not that I don't care, but I've got a silver medal round my neck and I'm delighted. Obviously I wanted to go one better but Michelle was on fire and I had no answer. I gave so much concentration-wise yesterday for those last 10 points – probably the most I have ever concentrated in my whole life – to have to knuckle down and reproduce it was a bit of an ask. I gave my best but maybe I was just not 100 per cent there.
It's half-time in the hockey. Australia have dominated and deserve their 2-0 lead over India.
In case, you are wondering, here is the medal table as it stands.
Ciriello has doubled his goal tally and doubled Australia's lead in the final. There is just three minutes left in the first half.
Any other favourite moments, folks?
Over in the cycling, Peter Kennaugh is still out in the lead, all by himself. With the second lap done, he is 41 seconds ahead of Remi Pelletier who, in turn, is just a touch ahead of the peloton.
Back to the hockey. There has been a goal and there has been a goal for Australia. That has come via a Chris Ciriello penalty corner. Speaking of finals and Australia, the women's netball gold match has got under way. It's 7-7 between the Aussies and New Zealand with 6 minutes left in the first quarter.
Some pictures from the final day:
After the drama of England's penalty shootout victory for hockey bronze, we now have the gold-medal match between India and Australia. There is just over 30 minutes left in the first half and it's currently 0-0.
Here is what Mark Cavendish had to say about the Isle of Man's hopes to the BBC before this race:
We are only a small island, 80,000 people up against the bullish teams of the southern hemisphere, but we have six strong guys and I think we can win. The other home nations are still strong and have young riders suited to this course, but I know that the team is strong and it's not just Peter Kennaugh. In Delhi in 2010 we controlled the race, ultimately the Australians won but if we ride well today we can get a result.
For some reason or other Peter Kennaugh has decided to attack already and he is going hell for leather, giving himself a 17-second lead. OK, going out like this gives him plenty of time to pick his lines and get a feel for the course but there is still loads and loads and loads of racing to be done and there is no way he can sustain it on his own for another 11 laps or so.
The men's road race has got going for all, except Jonathan Mould who had a mechanical problem within seconds of starting. He hops off, tries to fix his back wheel and hops back on. Within second he is back off and and having said back wheel replaced. The rain is still pelting it down in Glasgow, which will ensure a very tricky 12 laps for the chaps. Speaking of cycling, this is how close the finish was for third in the women's race.
Earlier today, the husband-and-wife duo Chris and Gabby Adcock won badminton gold for England by beating compatriots Chris Langridge and Heather Olver in the mixed doubles final. Here is what the wires have to say about that.
Chris and Gabby Adcock claimed Commonwealth Games gold for England with a convincing victory over Chris Langridge and Heather Olver in the mixed doubles final.
The husband-and-wife duo, ranked five in the world, lived up to their top-seed billing as they powered to a 21-9, 21-12 win over their international team-mates at the Emirates Arena.
The Adcocks did not relinquish their grip after imposing themselves on the second seeds early in the first game and they went on to wrap up victory in 35 minutes. Their victory capped a superb tournament in which they were hardly troubled and did not drop a single game. The most points they conceded in any one game in their five matches was 17.
For Gabby Adcock the gold added to the bronze she won in the women's doubles with Lauren Smith while both she and Chris were part of the silver-medalling England side in the team event.
Silver for Scotland!
It's all over in the badminton. Michelle Li was outstanding right from the start and has deservedly won gold against Scotland's Kirsty Gilmour. Gilmour gets a standing ovation from her home crowd. The second game ended 21-7.
Bronze for England!
Back to the hockey. The match has gone down to penalties. New Zealand and England both score the first attempts but New Zealand's Blair Hilton misses their second. England do not. They both convert their third ones too. Simon Child jogs up with confidence but is soon on his knees in a regretful stance. Simon Mantell can win it here for England. He is obstructed by the keeper and it is a penalty stroke to England. Ashley Jackson takes, Ashley Jackson scores! It's bronze for England.
Over in the badminton Michelle Li ended up winning that first game against Scotland's Kirsty Gilmour, 21-14. She is in charge of the second game too, leading 5-0 as it stands.
Earlier this morning, Lizzie Armitstead and Emma Pooley took gold and silver in the women's road race. Here is our quick report on that race:
Lizzie Armitstead led an England one-two ahead of her retiring team-mate Emma Pooley in a sensational Commonwealth Games women's road race on the final day of Glasgow 2014.
Pooley, in her last race before switching to endurance triathlons, played a brilliant selfless role in the 98km event – seven laps of a 14km undulating course – and finished with silver as Armitstead triumphed.
Armitstead finished with silver behind Australia's Rochelle Gilmore in Delhi four years ago and claimed Britain's first medal of London 2012, with Olympic silver behind Marianne Vos of Holland. Now the 25-year-old from Otley has the title she has long craved.
Armitstead, a 2009 team pursuit world champion on the track, won the 2013 British title on the same Glasgow course, albeit with an extra lap, and was confident heading into the race, determined to shed her perennial runner-up status.
Brzone for Jamaica!
It's all over in the netball. Jamaica have beaten England to the bronze medal, winning 52-48. Jamaica's defense was just a touch more solid and they were all a touch calmer over the final few minutes and deserve their third place finish.
Just after announcing that England were still 3-2 up against New Zealand, Simon Child struck to level proceedings.
The badminton women's singles gold medal match is underway. As it stands, Michelle Li of Canada is 7-2 up in the first game against Scotland's Kirsty Gilmour. Over in the men's hockey, England are still 3-2 up in their bronze medal match, while in the netball Jamaica are leading 44-43.
It's tense over in the netball as England and Jamaica are neck and neck in the final quarter of the bronze medal match. It's 41-41 and there are just nine minutes left to play.
Back to the hockey for a moment. Ashley Jackson has only gone and given England the lead against New Zealand. It's 3-2. They are into the second half now with just over 23 minutes left on the clock.
Turns out Usain Bolt is a big fan of the Proclaimers.
(That video comes courtesy of my colleague Tom Bryant.)
Gold for England!
While all that cycling excitement was going on, the Adcocks won gold and became the first ever husband and wife team to win the Commonwealth badminton mixed doubles title. Go them. They won the first game 21-9 in just 15 minutes. Langridge and Olver put up more of a fight in the second one but there was no stopping the Adcocks and they won the second 21-12 in a time of 18 minutes.
She is not the only one, of course. Here's some other elite athletes who have told meat to hit the showers.
Just the other day, my colleague, Richard Williams, wrote a lovely piece about Nicole Cooke and how her outspoken book, The Breakaway, is a compelling and salutary account of the price she paid for hard-earned victories from which many others in cycling will benefit. Here is what he had to say:
Few men will be able to read Nicole Cooke's new autobiography without wincing. For men, with the exception of her devoted father and one or two others who helped along the way, were always the problem, the ones who found endless means – some ingenious, others crude – to obstruct her path to glory.
It is men about whom Cooke is writing when she describes "the bungling, petty, political and indiscreet nature of the incompetence of so many". Those who think they know best, who aren't open to learning from the experience of others, whose first instinct is to protect their positions: all of them men.
The Breakaway, just published by Simon & Schuster, could be accused of taking a narrow view. That is hardly surprising. The pursuit of gold medals and world championships sometimes calls for blinkers. But Cooke, although demanding to a fault, was never interested purely in her own career. Or if she was, it was so that others might follow the trail she had opened up.
Their haul of Olympic and world championship medals makes British Cycling the most admired of sporting bodies. For Cooke, however, the battle has not been won. Britain's female track cyclists may be earning their share of glory, but you will look in vain for a women's Team Sky. Cooke believes that women are still a second-class presence in the management offices below the Manchester velodrome.
England were 1-0 down in the hockey against New Zealand. It's now 2-2 and half time.
Gold for England/Armitstead!
Once she made that move on George Street, that gold medal was always going to be Armitstead's. She timed that move to absolute perfection and there was not a jot that the chasing the pack could do about it. There was no one within sight as she crossed the line. Pooley ends her career with a silver and looks very emotional about it all as she crosses the line. The fight for third is a lot tighter. Pasio and Cromwell edge in front of Villmusen. Pasio is out in front and looks to have it sown up but Cromwell sneaks on the outside. They both put the pedal down and it is a photo finish. It goes to Pasio. Just about.
Quick netball update. Jamaica have fought their way back into the game. From being two down, they now lead England by two. It's 22-24.
Armitstead has just gone through Nelson Mandela place. Her lead is now 15 seconds. She is gritting her teeth and it clearly hurts but this race is hers to lose now. Pooley still stands in second. Behind them, Cromwell is doing her best to escape the pack.
The mixed doubles final is also taking place right now. Husband and wife pairing, Chris and Gabby Adcock, won the first game against Chris Langridge and Heather Olver 21-9 in 15 minutes. They are also winning the second one 13-5.
Katie Archibald has fallen off from the back of the pack. There will be no medal for Scotland in the cycling. Armitstead, meanwhile, has just powered her way past Cromwell, up the hill that is George street, past Pooley and into top spot. She is already quite a distant ahead of the rest.
Back to the cycling. Pooley has made a break from the rest of the riders with 10km to go. She has about a three second lead over the rest of the pack who are being led by Cromwell. Conditions have got slightly better. There is a sliver of sun in the sky.
The netball is not the only bronze medal match that England are involved in. England's men's hockey team are doing their thing against New Zealand and currently, with 18 minutes left in the first half, that thing is not quite good enough as they are losing 1-0.
Over in the netball, England are taking on Jamaica in the bronze-medal match. As it stands, they have just come to the end of the first quarter and it is 13-11 to England.
The women's road race has been up and running for some time now and they have just started their final lap in some very tricky conditions. It is bucketing down and one of the commentators has just described them as "lubricated glass". The leading group of seven consists of Lizzie Armitstead and Emma Pooley of England, Gracie Elvin and Tiffany Cromwell of Australia, Ashleigh Pasio of South Africa, Katie Archibald of Scotland and Linda Villmusen of New Zealand.
Good morning
And welcome to the final day of the Commonwealth Games. Here's what's going on today:
Scotland's David Millar will retire at the end of the season and has set his heart on making an impact in today's cycling road race, wearing his national colours and with his compatriots cheering him on. But can the support propel him on to the podium when the likes of England's Alex Dowsett and Wales' Geraint Thomas are in action? Women's race starts 8am, men midday
Husband and wife Chris and Gabby Adcock contest the mixed doubles final against another English pairing, Chris Langridge and Heather Oliver. This match has already started.
England face Jamaica in the bronze final at 10am before a mouthwatering clash for the gold medal between Australia, the red-hot favourites, and New Zealand, who shocked their neighbours by winning a surprise gold in Delhi four years ago
Men's doubles squash
The Scottish paring of Alan Clyne and Harry Leitch face England's Daryl Selby and James Willstrop in the losers' final at 12.15pm, before an Ashes clash for the gold medal between England's singles champion Nick Matthew and partner Adrian Grant, and the Australians David Palmer and Cameron Pilled
Closing ceremony
The Games come to a close with the big finale at Hampden Park, starting at 9pm. Will there be an encore from John Barrowman, the Loch Ness monster and giant Tunnock's Teacakes?

TV networks seen beating expectations thanks to strong ad market
The outlook for television networks is positive and investors should overweight the sector, research firm Pacific Crest wrote in a note to investors today. WHAT'S NEW: Pacific Crest analyst Andy Hargreaves recommended that investors own the shares of TV network owners 21st Century Fox (FOXA), Time Warner (TWX) and AMC Networks (AMCX). The companies' results should beat expectations, driven by a strong U.S. advertising market and stable pay TV subscriptions, he forecast. Moreover, given their "low elasticity, limited exposure to emerging markets and credit-fueled funding, and historically low valuations," the networks look "highly defensible," the analyst stated. Based on viewership data, 21st Century Fox, AMC and Scripps Networks (SNI) are best positioned to increase their ad revenue going forward, Hargreaves believes. Meanwhile, Fox and Scripps should benefit from strong viewership trends for sporting events, contended the analyst, who kept Overweight ratings on 21st Century Fox, Time Warner and AMC Networks, but maintained a Sector Weight rating on Scripps. WHAT'S NOTABLE: Hargreaves also kept a Sector Weight rating on CBS (CBS), but he recommended owning the stock in the near-term. The company's ad revenue should rise this year, driven by the Super Bowl and political spending, and its fourth quarter results could beat expectations on the back of strong ad revenue and content sales, the analyst predicted. Furthermore, CBS's content is well-positioned to be part of any significant bundle, and the stock's risk/reward ratio is positive, he wrote. PRICE ACTION: In late morning trading, Class A Fox shares slid 3%, AMC gave back 4.4%, Time Warner retreated 2.7%, and CBS and Scripps each fell about 4%.

When it comes to Italian food, Raj Nouzari, co-owner and chef at the new Americano Grill Italian Bistro located in Town Center, knows best.
"Raj is an amazing cook. He makes incredible spaghetti and his Italian enchiladas and palermo are to die for," said Denice Dorsett, Raj's partner and friend.
Americano Grill Italian Bistro opened its doors on May 1 but Nouzari and Dorsett's collaboration began long before that. Dorsett met Nouzari in 2007 when she was filling in for a friend who was a server at the Valencia Club, located in Penryn.
Nouzari owned the Valencia Club at that time and noticed Dorsett's excellent people skills, and before long the match was made. The two signed on as partners and have been together ever since.
"We make a great team," said Dorsett. "He likes to stay in the kitchen and I'm more of a people person, so it all works out."
After leaving the Valencia Club in 2009, Nouzari and Dorsett opened Mooney's Restaurant & Bar on East Bidwell, right across from the DMV in Folsom. Mooney's did really well and was known for having the best burger in Folsom and beyond, but after the Palladio shopping center opened, business began to dwindle. The partners knew it was time to sell.
And that's when the idea for Americano Grill Italian Bistro was born.
"Raj had seen this location in Town Center and really liked it," said Dorsett. "Town Center needed an Italian restaurant, and that just happened to be one of Raj's areas of expertise. It couldn't have worked out better."
Customers at Americano Grill Italian Bistro are delighted by large portions, only the freshest of ingredients and friendly faces.
Nouzari goes to pick out his ingredients himself at a market in Sacramento every day and the restaurant grows its own herbs and tomatoes in season.
The restaurant also offers a bottomless mimosa brunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. every day, where customers can get more than just Italian food. They can also order chicken fried steak, crab Benedict, fresh crab cakes, omelets, bacon and more.
"I am always amazed at Raj's eggs," said Dorsett. "Never do you see any brown on his eggs. His eggs are perfect. It's unreal that he can make them that perfect every time."
In addition to the excellent food, great customer service is a given at Americano Grill Italian Bistro. Dorsett has had people follow her all the way from the Valencia Club, and she and Raj even make Christmas dinner for a couple from New Castle every year.
"I genuinely love people and will go out of my way for my customers and won't even tell them I'm doing it," said Dorsett. "When I do something, I do it without any ulterior motive. That's just the way I am."
For more information about Americano Grill Italian Bistro or to find out restaurant hours call 916-934-0887.

According to the California-based Fukushima Fallout Awareness Network (FFAN), burning Fukushima's radioactive rubble is the worst possible way to deal with the problem. That's because incinerating it releases much more radioactivity into the air, not only magnifying the contamination all over Japan but also sending it up into the jet stream. Once in the jet stream, the radioactive particles travel across the Northern Hemisphere, coming back down to earth with rain, snow, or other precipitation. Five days after the Fukushima meltdowns began, radioactive fallout from the disaster reached the West Coast of the United States. Approximately a week later, Fukushima fallout was measured as far away as France. Read more: whowhatwhy.com...

For success in the contemporary world, no matter what profession is chosen, it is essential that students learn how to live and work in diverse communities. What better preparation for life than to study how people are alike and yet different?
Anthropology is the study of the origin, physical, social, and cultural development of humans and the diverse social behavior of humans in the contemporary global world. Anthropologists often conduct research in remote parts of the world to learn about daily life in distant communities. They also bring an important self-reflexive understanding to urban-industrial societies in the West.
Anthropology at Mills offers a unique set of courses designed to provide students with a comprehensive skill-set that stresses intercultural competence and communication, comparative method, flexibility, holism, a tolerance for ambiguity, and a curiosity about, and understanding of, societies different from one's own. Anthropology courses explore contemporary issues such as education, immigration, race, gender and sexuality, family, religion, poverty, globalization, and power. Classes are also offered in physical anthropology and archaeology.
Students at Mills study closely with professors who have done fieldwork in many foreign lands as well as on home ground. The department also trains students in public interest anthropological research that aids organizations, businesses, and governments in promoting a cross-cultural perspective in their practices and policies.
Anthropology students go on to work in a range of fields. Some, of course, pursue graduate work in the discipline itself while others become professionals in such fields as social work, education, public health, public policy, NGO administration, law, disaster relief, linguistics, forensics, and historical archaeology. Whether students take one course or major in anthropology, an anthropological perspective prepares them to understand and thrive in a rapidly changing, increasingly globalized world.
Mills College's innovative Bachelor's-to-Master's Accelerated Degree Programs allow you to earn a master's degree in one additional year of study. Combining a master's degree with a liberal arts undergraduate education prepares you for career success and increased options upon graduation. Mills students in this major should consider one of these options:

BOSTON — Rajon Rondo isn't saying for sure when he'll return to the Boston Celtics lineup, but a Tweet from his verified account Monday night would indicate that his return will be Friday against the Los Angeles Lakers.
29,233,380 secs
— Rajon Rondo (@RajonRondo) January 14, 2014
That equates to the number of days between Rondo's season-ending surgery on Feb. 13, 2013, and Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
Rondo told reporters last week that he would return to action prior to the NBA All-Star break in February.
A Yahoo Sports! report came out that Rondo was targeting Friday's game against the Lakers for his return.
Multiple league sources contacted by CSNNE.com have confirmed that the four-time All-Star is in fact hoping to be back on the floor for Boston this week.
Prior to Monday's loss to Houston, Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said Rondo's return was looking to be "sooner rather than later."

On Tap, At Home: Kitchen Countertop Beer & Alcohol Dispensers
As a beer aficionado who prefers his beer on tap, I wondered if there was a way for me to bring some of the joys of enjoying a pint at the bar back at home, but in a kitchen countertop-friendly size and with one press/pull convenience. I was pleased to discover there is indeed an assortment of beer dispensing devices available, many no bigger than most espresso machines, some even controllable via app!

10 Best Earbuds For Under $50
I've tried a number of earbuds over the years in search of the elusive "perfect pair". But with all the danger that can befall a set of earbuds (sometimes admittedly to replace a pair that went through the laundry or got chewed up by a cat), I've never been inclined to spend too much on them. The following few models earned my recommendations after testing/owning myself, with a few others noted for their excellent review feedback...
Small Space Wireless Audio: Sonos Play:1
Tech Find
Sonos Play:1 Wireless Speaker
• Sonos
Sonos has always played by a different set of rules in the audio segment, focusing on larger, more powerful modular, networkable audio solutions in this era of battery powered wireless speakers. The Play:1 is Sonos' foray into the small space segment, an affordable two Class D amplifier and 3.5" mid-woofer desktop or wall-mountable unit that's even shower-humidity friendly and can be extended with additional units to bathe a room in sound, arguably their best looking speaker yet.
To Binge or Not to Binge: Real Time vs. Marathon TV Viewing
Since college, I've relished in indulging in TV binge sessions. Whether it was my DVD collections of Sex and the City or streaming show via Netflix, extended stretches of enjoying television programming in one sitting has been my preferred method for catching up with all the "it" shows over the years. Then Breaking Bad came along. I tried. I really did. But watching multiple Breaking Bad episodes was so depressing - I just couldn't binge like I had intended...
10 Game Rooms That Play Nice
Apartment Therapy Game Room
When I was a kid we called it the leisure room, the one space in the house dedicated to storing and playing board games, setting up train sets, and where we enjoyed parking in front of our beloved Nintendo NES system. Other neighbors had a card table, billiards table, or ping pong area. In any case, I think every home is a little better...more fun...with a dedicated spot for gameplay, relaxation, and maybe even a little adventuring. Here are a few examples where gaming plays fair with decor...
Libratone Loop Wireless Speaker
Daily Tech Find
Libratone Loop
• $499.95
• Libratone
It's sweater weather, so how appropriate is the announcement of the new wool-clad Libratone Loop, an Airplay, DLNA, and PlayDirect compatible wireless speaker hailing from Copenhagen. Designed for either wall-mounted display, or anywhere else with an included stand, the Loop is definitely going to elicit some questions in any room, especially donning one of the brighter changeable speaker covers. Behind that pretty soft wool cover is a 120W amp driving a 4" woofer, two 1" ribbon-style tweeters, and a passive radiator for 360 degree sound which should be more than suitable for an apartment living room or home office.
Take the Test: Can You Tell the Difference Between High & Low Quality Audio?
Noise Addicts
It was all the way back in 2007 when I posted about converting the very last of my remaining CD collection into digital file format. I wasn't yet as well versed in high audio file formats back then, settling for 128-192kbps quality MP3s. The rationale was the moderate compression was a fair trade-off for the modest file size, back when consumer priced hard drives were still rated for gigabytes, not terabytes of storage...
10 Offbeat Ways to Enjoy the GTA V World
Apartment Therapy Game Room
Grand Theft Auto has earned a reputation for both representing the best and worst in video games, its free form, open world environment offering gamers an excess of exaggerated action and violence to revel in and explore. However the fifth installment set in a barely disguised Los Angeles (Los Santos), is a truly massive virtual city populated with an array of intricate details, amusing conversations between characters, and an assortment of normal activities to keep you preoccupied...
Game On: Chairs for Gamers
There's one thing I think every design-minded gamer can agree on: gaming chairs can sometimes be ugly, ridiculous, and often categorically nuts in form factor. However, their functionality can't be argued. The lowered arms and lower height make them ideal for multi-person marathon sessions for hours of playing games, encouraging better posture and in some cases, even decreasing eye strain.

The analysis of claims data provides the greatest ability for an employer to have an effect on health care costs and employee health.
As the popularity of e-cigarettes continues to grow, there's still no definitive ruling on the safety and proper regulation of the tobacco-free alternative. It's up to employers to fill in the gaps.
Supplemental health products, like hospital indemnity and critical insurance plans, have been growing in popularity as out-of-pocket medical costs increase for many employees.
Employee safety should always be the company's highest priority, and employers should follow CDC guidance and avoid knee-jerk reactions, no matter how provocative an employee's activities may be.
Like many companies, we have an annual performance review of employees. At the beginning of the financial year, KPAs, goals, targets are mutually agreed. There is quarterly review of performance followed by annual review. Employees are rated on predefined performance criteria on a scale of 1 to 5. Subsequent to rating, we wanted our line management to rank employees against each other in order to have ranking order. Line management is not inclined to ranking, for obvious reasons. Is there any way to know if ranking is the right approach for our performance management?

Jesus Christ! Superstar!
Har Mar superstar emerged from the exclusive bathroom in the deeply underground New York nightclub covered in what was most likely the love juice of several of Manhattan's most important media celebrities, lotion purloined from the sweet pink bedroom of brassy young starlet Kelly Osbourne, or nothing at all. A good look for someone who might well be spending Christmas in an Oklahoma jail.
It was at the invite-only Jane magazine party that Sean Tillmann was sporting such a look on another late night at a jam-packed CMJ music festival weekend. And jail time is apparently the price Tillmann, the Minneapolis-based artist who created and sometimes lives as Har Mar, is going to have to pay for a list of crimes so flagrant that they can barely be listed. Like being a white guy singing R&B. Like opening arena-sized shows for glamorous arena-rockers Incubus without the safety and cover of a backing rock band. Like ending every show in the not-so-tidy tighty-whities that American men are taught to hide under the cover of darkness, or at least matrimony. But having sex, or referencing sex, when you don't look like a silicone-and-collagen mutant is apparently lewd conduct in America today.
So is grabbing your crotch and inviting the crowd to eat your pussy.
That's what landed Tillmann in the holding cell in Oklahoma City's Ford Center.
"It was the same show we always do," Tillmann told me in an exclusive interview that was interrupted every eight seconds by a girl looking to paw the diminutive martyr. "With Incubus it's been a serious arena-rock tour, 6,000 to 16,000 people every night. Sometimes people are into it; sometimes they go insane and want to destroy you. In Jackson, Mississippi, I got hit with a lot of shit. Lighters. Shoes. Bottles. I had bruises all over. Somebody threw an umbrella, and I used that to shield myself from all the flying crap. At the end of the show there was $40 in change up there. When that happens, I keep adding songs to the set.
"They yell 'faggot' a lot. Thanks for perpetuating your stereotype, Mississippi. You guys are great. It's mainly dudes that go so berserk. Anyway, after the show there were cops waiting on the side of the stage, and I got thrown in a containment cell in my underwear."
Har Mar disrobes throughout the course of his show, engaging in a provocative anti-striptease, giving the crowd what it really doesn't want--namely, a person in Christina Aguilera-style near-nakedness who doesn't look like Christina Aguilera. Which, if you have the ability to think, results in a provocative critique of who looks and who can be looked at in sex in America today. Namely young, thin women in the style of Britney, Beyoncé, et al.; and black men, from Usher to Nelly. However, if you don't have the ability to think, the last-song sight of Har Mar in underwear apparently proves so upsetting that you're compelled to throw your shoes.
Or issue lewd-behavior tickets.
"How is it that what Britney Spears does is not lewd?" asks Har Mar, after satisfying yet another lusty lady interview-interrupter by pretending he remembers the last time they met. "Anyway, if you're facing 10,000 people yelling 'faggot' and 'you suck,' you have to do something about it, or you're a coward. So I told them to eat my pussy. I get offstage, and they threw me in this containment cell in the arena in my underwear, threatening me, and made me wait in there forever. They wouldn't give me a towel. The cops were so pissed off. It was like a personal vendetta with this one guy. You could practically see the smoke coming out of his eyes. Later, when they let me out of the cell, I put on my pants, and this one cop was like, 'Take off your pants unless you want to spend the night in jail. You can't do that in the Bible Belt.' I'm like, 'Dude, quit hiding behind the Bible and get a sense of humor. I don't have a pussy.'"
Tillmann paid a $750 fine that night.
Now he has to return to Oklahoma City for a pending court date, where he faces a possible $1,200 fine and six months in jail.
Which represents one of several things. Either it's the latest and most underreported flare-up in the continuing city vs. country American culture wars, which have taken as their unwitting soldiers artists as diverse as comedian Lenny Bruce and photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. Or it's the first shot across the bow in the newest wave of the avant-garde: playing with and subverting that most overamplified aspect of American life, namely "cool," and the thing it runs from, "uncool" and public humiliation. Or this Oklahoma travesty is a gift from God, given in His own and beloved Bible Belt, the gift of publicity, on the eve of the release of Har Mar's first major-label album, You Can Feel Me (Record Collection/Warner Bros.).
The record-release party is Thursday, November 7 at First Avenue, on a bill that includes critical darlings the Pattern; City Pages' Picked to Click winners the Soviettes (who also just received a record-deal offer from Green Day's Adeline Records), and local band Swiss Army. Could it be the show of the year? Why not? We all know how, from Sinclair Lewis to Charles Schulz, Minnesota prefers to support its favorite sons and daughters only once they're past needing it--but how about making an exception this week? Not only because Tillmann stars in the following paragraph, which is so star-studded it could choke Elizabeth Taylor: The last few months have seen Har Mar drinking Jameson with boxer Laila Ali at the Incubus tour-closing party, chatting with Reneé Zellweger when he was opening for the Strokes in Toronto, playing private Jane magazine parties in both L.A. and New York (just as former Jane anointee Stephen Malkmus once did), rolling around on the pink shag carpet of his MTV Music Awards date Kelly Osbourne's bedroom (look for the pictures inside the new album), and writing songs for J. Lo and the U.K.'s Zomba/Jive Records with local collaborators Nathan Grumdahl (my friend) and Eric Olsen. But more important than any celebrity, there's this: When one man can titillate both the staff of Jane and the staff of the Oklahoma City PD, attention should be paid.
Har Mar wrapped up his set at the Jane party in his underwear, writhing on a brass rail, and pumping his fist in the air to his signature slogan. Go to enough Har Mar concerts and the phrase tends to just wash over you, but listen closely and it begins to unpack like a stack of Russian dolls. It's not merely the most un-Minnesotan thing you could ever say, it's also the clearest articulation of everything American pop culture has been trying to say for the last decade. "Give it up for me, I'm fucking awesome!" he says, his pudgy belly ballooning over his everyman panties. And there, as vulnerable as a man can be, he looked out at a packed room of the sharpest women on earth, and they clapped. He retreated to the Jane bathroom to dress.

Enormous environments, deep battle mechanics, and an insane amount of replay value make games like Skyrim some of the most versatile in the industry. Skyrim holds on to the basis of what made the other games in the Elder Scrolls series so successful, but also adds enhanced visuals, mechanics, and a more immersive world that makes it a much greater experience than its predecessors. 9.75/10

Pets may suffer back-to-school anxiety too
Sep 9, 2010
As everyone prepares to return to their busy schedules as summer winds down, our pets may have some difficulty adjusting to spending days alone in the house or not having as much time with their families as they have for the past few months.
Some pets have no problem settling back into the fall routine as the kids return to school and parents being working again, but others may suffer from anxiety and begin to act out, The Orange County Register reports.
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) lists chewing and digging, going to the bathroom inside the home, attempting to escape the home and constant barking and whining as some common signs that your pet may be having trouble adjusting to the back-to-school schedule.
Luckily, the ASPCA also has some tips for owners to
help animals
adjust to the new schedule. Start off by introducing small periods of time where they are alone, and gradually increase the amount of time so they can adjust to a new schedule.
Also, giving a dog a toy or treat every time you leave may help them adjust and associate the time alone as being rewarding. When you leave they may remain calm because they have been rewarded.
