CHARLOTTESVILLE - The top-ranked Virginia men's tennis team will return to action this week as it will play four road matches on a spring break trip to Texas and Illinois. The Cavaliers will visit Baylor, Texas A&M, Texas and Illinois over a seven-day stretch to conclude the non-conference schedule.
The Cavaliers are 7-0 this season, including three wins over top-five opponents. Virginia has six players currently ranked in the ITA Singles Rankings, including No. 1 Alex Domijan (Wesley Chapel, Fla.), No. 3 Jarmere Jenkins (College Park, Ga.) and No. 8 Mac Styslinger (Birmingham, Ala.). The duo of Jenkins and Styslinger are No. 2 in the ITA Doubles Rankings.
Virginia opens its trip at No. 38 Baylor on Monday. The Bears are 10-2 this season, but will likely move up the rankings next week after they upset No. 5 Kentucky last week.
The trip continues Wednesday with a visit to No. 14 Texas A&M. The Aggies are 11-5 overall this season, including a 3-1 mark in their debut season in the SEC.
The Cavaliers conclude their trek through the Lone Star State on Friday as they visit No. 21 Texas in a match that will be televised on the Longhorn Network. The Longhorns are 9-4 this season, including a 4-0 home record.
The trip concludes on Mar. 17 with a visit to No. 13 Illinois, who will host this season's NCAA Championships. The Fighting Illini are 7-4 this season.
Live scoring for all four matches will be available on VirginiaSports.com, with live video available for the Baylor and Texas A&M matches.

Intel Corporation reported record EPS and revenue on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis. On a non-GAAP basis, revenue was $12.9 billion, operating income was $4.3 billion, net income was $3.3 billion, and EPS was 59 cents. On a GAAP basis, the company reported first-quarter revenue of $12.8 billion, operating income of $4.2 billion, net income of $3.2 billion, and EPS of 56 cents.
The company generated approximately $4.0 billion in cash from operations, paid cash dividends of $994 million, and used $4.0 billion to repurchase 189 million shares of common stock. "The first-quarter revenue was an all-time record for Intel fueled by double digit annual revenue growth in every major product segment and across all geographies," said Paul Otellini, Intel president and CEO. "These outstanding results, combined with our guidance for the second quarter, position us to achieve greater than 20 percent annual revenue growth.
Q1 2011 Key Financial Information (GAAP)
- PC Client Group revenue up 17 percent, Data Center Group revenue up 32 percent, other Intel architecture group revenue up 70 percent, and Intel Atom microprocessor and chipset revenue of $370 million up 4 percent, all year-over-year.
- The average selling price (ASP) for microprocessors was up sequentially. Gross margin was 61 percent.
- R&D plus MG&A spending of $3.7 billion, slightly higher than the company's expectation.
- The net gain of $213 million from equity investments and interest and other, consistent with the company's expectation.
- The effective tax rate was 28 percent, in-line with the company's outlook of 29 percent.
- The company used $4.0 billion to repurchase 189 million shares of common stock.
- During the quarter, the company closed the acquisitions of Infineon Wireless Solutions and McAfee, Inc. The combination of both acquisitions contributed revenue of $496 million.
- The first quarter of 2011 had 14 weeks of business versus the typical 13 weeks, as the company realigned its fiscal year with the calendar year.

Italy have qualified for the semi-finals of the Confederations Cup after triumphing 4-3 in a thriller against an impressive Japan.
Despite going behind 2-0 in the first half, Italy scored three goals in the space of 11 minutes either side of the break to move into the lead and, while Japan looked like they would win after Shinji Okazaki equalised with 21 minutes remaining, Cesare Prandelli's Italian side eventually triumphed thanks to a goal from Sebastian Giovinco.
Giovinco, who came on for a very disappointing Alberto Aquilani on the half-hour mark, provided some much-needed spark in Italy's front third and finished off a nice move in the 86th minute, tapping home after a cut-back from fellow substitute Claudio Marchisio.
Japan were unfortunate to miss out on at least a draw at Itaipava Arena Pernambuco and looked to have made it 4-4 with two minutes remaining when Maya Yoshida tapped home from close range but the central defender was correctly ruled offside.
The victory takes Italy into the semi-finals alongside Group A-rivals Brazil, who overcame Mexico 2-0 in the earlier match on Wednesday, while Japan have been eliminated from the Confederations Cup.
After a fairly timid performance in their 3-0 defeat to Brazil on Saturday, Japan started the clash in Recife at full intensity, with Shinji Kagawa at the centre of everything.
The Manchester United midfielder had a lot of joy collecting the ball on the left-hand side of midfield, too deep for Italy's right-back Christian Maggio to pick him up, and in the fifth minute Kagawa produced the first big chance for Japan.
Kagawa pushed forward down the left before cutting in on his right and picking out Ryoichi Maeda's run into the penalty area but the 31-year-old striker headed the ball straight at Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
In the 16th minute, Kagawa tested Buffon himself, striking from long-range and forcing the Italian captain to tip the ball away.
Japan scored the goal their play deserved five minutes later through a spot-kick from Keisuke Honda after Buffon was judged to have tripped Okazaki with his legs in the penalty area, although the two players seemed to reach the ball at the same time.
Italy were struggling to gain possession and it was 2-0 three minutes after the half-hour mark as Prandelli's side failed to clear their defence, with Giorgio Chiellini missing a header, allowing Kagawa to turn in the box and fire a volley into the bottom corner of Buffon's net.
Kagawa's goal seemed to finally spark Italy and after Andrea Pirlo curled a free-kick just over the bar, the Juventus midfielder set up his team's opening goal, putting a corner on Daniele De Rossi's head in the 41st minute.
Japan finished the half nervously and Italy could have been level at the break but Emanuele Giaccherini's shot from Mario Balotelli's knock-down struck the post just before half-time.
Luck played a big role in Italy's move into the lead in the opening seven minutes of the second half, with Giaccherini somehow keeping the ball in field before his cross was put into the net by Atsuto Uchida in the 50th minute, while Makoto Hasebe was very unfortunate to concede a penalty a minute later, after Giovinco's shot squeezed through the Japanese skipper's legs and onto his hand.
Balotelli made no mistake from the spot and suddenly Italy led 3-2.
After a terrible 15-minute period either side of half-time, Japan recovered and drew level in the 69th minute when Okazaki headed Yasuhito Endo's free-kick past Buffon.
Japan were suddenly on top again and had a couple of chances to take the lead, with Honda gliding through Italy's defence to force Buffon into a fine save, while in the 82nd minute Okazaki and Kagawa hit the woodwork within seconds of each other.
But having failed to take advantage of possession, Japan were made to pay with four minutes remaining when De Rossi found Marchisio in behind Yuto Nagatomo, who had plenty of time to square the ball to Giovinco for the decisive goal.

Habitat for Humanity getting into the rehab business
Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity is getting into the home rehab business.
For 29 years, the group has been building homes for low-income families. But on Thursday, Mayor Tom Barrett will sign the deed to a home at 1321 N. 36th St., over to the organization.
Habitat plans to convert the duplex into a single-family home, with a complete makeover. According to Habitat, some of the work involves removing an upper porch, and installing new siding, insulation, a furnace, windows, electrical, fixtures, appliances and more.
Habitat estimates the makeover will cost $125,000. The home is located across the street from five homes Habitat built in 2005.
Habitat hopes to renovate a total of six homes in the next 18 months. It will continue to build new homes, too.
"It's about meeting the needs of the community," said Brian Sonderman, executive director of Milwaukee Habitat. "This house has been vacant for 11 months and boarded up since February of this year and deemed uninhabitable by the city, and it's just one of hundreds of foreclosures in the Washington Park neighborhood. We can build new houses around the foreclosures, but if they continue to attract crime and bring down property values, that's not a solution and it's not a safe situation for our partner families. This new rehab program is another step in our effort to help transform Washington Park into a safe, vibrant community."
The rehab work is in cooperation with the city. Under the plan, Habitat will purchase city-owned foreclosures and use community development block grants to pay for the rehab.
The rehab will be done with community volunteers and the home's future owner, a first-time homebuyer who will purchase the home with a zero-interest mortgage.

"Free as a bird." It's an expression many paragliders use.
"Man has been dreaming about flying and paragliding is as close as you can get to flying with the birds," Dan Staniaszek said just before takeoff in Warren County, New Jersey.
He's part of Pennsylvania Paragliding, a Northampton County based high flying business.
"It's the most incredible thing. It's beautiful you can go anywhere." Pilot Juan Arias said.
Friday, WFMZ's Bo Koltnow was in Harmony New Jersey where Pennsylvania Paragliding owner Terry Bono put him through an introductory flight school.
"These are your brindles, they are going to make you attached to a toe rig," he told Bo as Bo was sitting in the harness.
A morphed motorcycle gives the initial pull. Because we are not on a cliff it gets the flyers off the ground.
"If you fly off a mountain there's trees, turbulence. I can control how high you get here," Bono said.
After some, often times, awkward practice, it was time to get off the ground. To maximize height Bo hooked up with Arias for a tandem run.
"After a bit of a rocky start, we quickly took off, and settled in to an amazing view.
When you are 2000 feet up the key is to follow the birds. You want to find the thermal air that lifts you higher and higher.
"We can fly as a bird, we can go anywhere, we can climb and go all the way to the clouds no problem," Arias said.
Flights can last several hours and cover hundreds of miles. Bono says it's not tough and due to the good thermal winds, this is the best time of year to spread your wings.
"Birds allow you to fly with them, it's an honor," he said

Tampa Bay (76-48) at Los Angeles (62-63)
Scott Kazmir(notes) and James Shields(notes) were the postseason anchors of the Tampa Bay Rays' rotation two years ago, but Kazmir is with the Los Angeles Angels and Shields has been the Rays' worst starter in 2010.
Eying another October run, Tampa Bay would love more starts like Shields' latest effort.
The former teammates square off for the first time in Monday night's series opener at Angels Stadium, where Shields tries to equal Kazmir's franchise record for wins as he matches the left-hander's 144 starts.
Kazmir (8-10, 6.40 ERA) saw his one-time status as Tampa Bay's ace disappear with his dreadful 2009, and by late August he found himself traded to the Angels (62-63). Shields (11-11, 4.82), meanwhile, has given way to David Price(notes), Jeff Niemann(notes) and Matt Garza(notes) atop the Rays' rotation.
He's shown he's still capable of giving Tampa Bay (76-48) an experienced arm down the stretch, though. After consecutive losses in which he gave up 12 runs in nine innings, Shields held Texas to two runs - one earned - and four hits over seven innings in an 8-6 win Wednesday.
Monday will be his 144th career start - tying Kazmir for the franchise high - and he can also match the southpaw's team record with his 54th victory. Shields is 4-3 with a 3.18 ERA in eight starts against the Angels.
To get there, he'll likely have to keep the ball in the park. Shields has given up an AL-high 29 homers, and Los Angeles designated hitter Hideki Matsui(notes) is 8 for 19 with three homers against him.
Angels RBI leader Torii Hunter(notes), 5 for 18 without an RBI versus Shields, hasn't driven in a run in 10 games.
Shields can pitch the Rays to a third straight victory Monday after they escaped with a four-game split in Oakland. After dropping the series' first two games by a run, Tampa Bay turned the tables in the final two, including a 3-2 victory Sunday.
"To be able to come back and salvage a split I think is great and does speak to the character of the group," manager Joe Maddon told the Rays' official website. "They're alive, man. They're in the dugout, they're alive. The pitchers that aren't playing, they're kind of entertaining. It's a great situation."
Tampa Bay stayed within a game of the Yankees in the AL East, but the Angels dropped yet another game as they try to track down Texas in the West. Los Angeles was held to six hits in a 4-0 loss at Minnesota on Sunday, finishing its road trip 2-4 and falling eight games behind the Rangers.
"It's not a good feeling," losing pitcher Jered Weaver(notes) said. "I tried to battle out there as much as I can, they got me for four runs and we lost. That's all there is to it."
This is Kazmir's second start against his former club after giving up three runs and seven hits over five innings in a 7-2 home loss May 11.
The southpaw surrendered four runs and eight hits - two homers - over five innings Wednesday at Boston, leaving without a decision in a 7-5 loss.
"I felt good, felt like I was attacking the zone, but I wasn't hitting my spots tonight," Kazmir said.
Including the loss to Tampa Bay, Kazmir is 0-5 with a 7.30 ERA in his last five home starts.

Joy Kingdom Facebook Game Benefits Real Animals
The new social media game challenges players to earn joy that is translated into funding for animal causes.
Sojo Studios, the gaming company responsible for the philanthropic game "WeTopia" benefitting children's charities, is back with a second installment. In Joy Kingdom, benefiting the Humane Society of the United States, Best Friends Animal Society, and Farm Sanctuary, players help Amani, King of the Animal Spirits, rebuild the animal kingdom after its "joy" is stolen away by shadows. As players work together, they earn joy as a currency, and are able to contribute to their charity of choice to fund real-world projects. The funding is thanks in part to Sojo's partnership with Ellen DeGeneres and additional support from Justin Bieber. "Joy Kingdom is fun, and I'm excited about how many animals we're gonna help," says DeGeneres. "I hope that when my fans play Joy Kingdom they feel the same way," adds Bieber.

Our family loved our week in Iceland. I am 70 and our youngest is 9. Each activity was well suited for the whole group. We changed one event and Kensington Tours immediately helped us cancel one and sign up for a new adventure. When I had questions they helped me out. Their professionalism, kindness, and attentiveness made our trip a complete success. Thank you!
Jessica Clements was a tremendous help as my husband and I planned our pre-cruise visit to Athens and the Peloponnese. Many thanks for all your efforts. We enjoyed our tours very much. Our guides, Niki Stavrakaki and Andronikos Sakatos, were phenomenal. Our drivers, Makias and Demetrios, were very professional and delightful gentlemen. We had a great time exploring many of the ancient sites we've dreamed of seeing for years.
Transfers were seamless and activities were great. Overall, we are very impressed with Kensington!
Everything exceeded our expectations!!! Our guides were amazing. Our hotels were wonderful. I wouldn't change anything about our trip! Thanks for your help!
I am so glad that I used Kensington Tours to help me plan my trip to Italy. Ingryd was an excellent agent - she understood exactly what was important to my family and every aspect of our trip from Rome to Florence to Venice was well planned and enjoyable, with no hiccups. We made changes to our schedule when in Italy and the local agents were very responsive and quickly adapted our plans to work better for us. We loved the personal attention we got on our private guided tours and felt we learned a lot from knowledgeable guides that were personable and very informative.
Another fabulous trip! John O'Connell was so congenial and knowledgeable. I feel like he has become a new friend. We had a great time with him and he made some excellent recommendations for small changes in our itinerary. He was so attentive and caring with my mother too! A really sweet man. Sean Finnigan in Dublin was a bundle of energy - took us to the museum to see the gold exhibit which we knew nothing about - so glad he did! Bought my sister and I a postcard of the Book of Kells alphabet as a remembrance - so kind! It was a trip we will never forget!!
Wonderful preparation! Great time and great planning. Definitely use them again in the future.
The accommodations and guides were great and everyone we were supposed to meet were courteous and knowledgeable.
Wonderfully planned! Everything was amazing. The high quality guides and tours were well worth the money, bypassing lines, personal attention and highly knowledgeable. The accommodations exceeded our expectations. Can't wait for our next trip!
Our trip to St. Petersburg was superlative. The hotel was beautiful, great location. Our guide was lovely; enthusiastic, full of knowledge, personable, helpful, and caring.

I Don't Need Anyone Lyrics
Artist: Kylie Minogue
Album: Impossible Princess
Written: James Dean Bradfield/ Kylie Minogue/ Nick Jones
I feel like speed
I feel like liquid
I give in to you
I melt into you
I felt like nothing
Was said and done
I fall into you
I fall into you
I don't need anyone
Except for someone that I don't know
I don't need anyone
Except for someone I've not found
Your signature
Is on my hip
A kiss from you
Still on my lips
I am entire
I am finally one
But the moments
Is long gone
I don't need anyone
Except for someone that I don't know
I don't need anyone
Except for someone I've not found

So ... Sunday's not going to work out for me again this week. But after a long hiatus, I'm dying for a workout, so I'm throwing out a Monday night Meetup to see if anyone shows.
This will be at our usual location in New Haven, and it will be after dark to make it extra fun.
The Bastard's Bootcamp offers an intense, fun-filled, free outdoor workout combining hills, stairs, body weight and core exercises to engage all your muscle groups while improving endurance and cardio. Jane Fonda, eat your heart out!
Not in peak condition? No big deal. Just be willing to push hard, sweat buckets and feel great when it's over. It's a beast of a workout, but you're a tough bastard.
Bring water, and a towel or yoga mat if you don't like working out on the grass. You can also bring a set of 2- to 4-pound hand weights if you want an extra challenge.
Leave the attitude at home!
Monday night, eh? Any interest in moving the time up? That area doesn't have the best lighting and I'm clumsy in the dark!
And welcome back, Ed! I'm looking forward to some travel stories!

Hi, I have had my nikon for about 2 or 3 years now and all of a sudden it will not recognize that the flash is up when I raise it. When I try to turn flash on it will say to raise the flash even though the flash is already raised. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!

Good morning first post so wonder if someone can help. My Nikon Coolpix S9100 auto mode I guess is supposed to allow you to take basic pictures without changing any settings. So far all is good with exception of when I use this mode to take pictures in dimly lit situations an orange light [autofocus?] appears on front vaguely lighting up the target with an orange glow.When I take the picture, the shutter speed click is very slow and dragged out, I then look at the picture & it is very blurry...

New Brunswick won't lift fracking moratorium until conditions met
The Canadian Press
Published Tuesday, March 29, 2016 1:40PM EDT
Last Updated Tuesday, March 29, 2016 3:38PM EDT
FREDERICTON -- New Brunswick's energy and mines minister says the province won't lift a moratorium on hydraulic fracturing until all the government's conditions are met.
Donald Arseneault says the government is reviewing the report of a shale gas review committee that took almost a year to study the issue.
"At the same time, our principles don't change. We set out five conditions out there and said we're not going to move on hydraulic fracturing unless those five conditions are met," Arseneault said Tuesday.
A collection of business groups is calling on the government to lift the moratorium, which was imposed in December 2014.
The business groups held a news conference in Fredericton Tuesday to make their case.
"When you look at the unemployment levels being as high as they are -- almost 10 per cent unemployment in New Brunswick -- certainly there are a lot of families in New Brunswick who could use the jobs at a time when our economy is really in a significant slump," said Joel Richardson, vice-president of the New Brunswick division of Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters.
He said the only way to attract investment and create jobs in the natural gas industry in New Brunswick is to lift the moratorium.
But Arseneault said there are conditions that have to be met first.
"Even if you lift the moratorium today, (the industry) still can't proceed because they need to...address waste water. Today there is no plan to do this," Arseneault said.
The government set out five conditions when it imposed the moratorium, including a plan for regulations, waste-water disposal, a process to consult First Nations, a royalty structure and a so-called social licence.
Arseneault said those conditions must be addressed before the moratorium can be lifted.
Richardson said natural gas development has been without incident in New Brunswick since the early 1990s.
He said it's hoped that with proper regulations, the industry can develop in the province.

Jerret Raffety, Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — Utah State University will host a summit Tuesday and Wednesday to enhance conservation efforts among federal, state and private natural resource agencies for the greater sage grouse, a candidate for the Endangered Species list.
The summit will help wildlife managers collaborate in preventing the bird from becoming listed as endangered, according to Terry Messmer, professor and extension wildlife specialist at USU's S.J. and Jessie E. Quinney College of Natural Resources.
"Through this discussion, we'll hopefully be able to demonstrate the resolve of these partners in doing the right thing, not only to protect this species and its habitat, but also the communities and working landscapes which drive Utah's economy," Messmer said.
About 250 participants have registered for the event, which will be held at the Utah Department of Natural Resources auditorium, 1594 West North Temple in Salt Lake City. The summit will be streamed online for those who haven't registered or are unable to attend in person.
The bird's decline has been a source of concern for more than a decade, with Utah's conservation efforts beginning in the 1990s. Urban encroachment, energy development, wildfires and invasive species have all contributed to a loss in greater sage grouse habitat.
In 2010, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service determined the greater sage grouse warranted listing under the Endangered Species Act, but precluded the bird because of higher priority species. The bird was since added to the candidate species list, a "parking lot" for species awaiting protection, Messmer said.
On Thursday, a committee of Utah lawmakers identified efforts to keep the bird off the Endangered Species list as a top funding priority, voting to funnel $2 million in one-time money to lobby in Washington and improve on-the-ground conservation efforts. The vote by the Natural Resources Agriculture and Environmental Quality committee does not bind any state dollars, but will be forwarded to the Executive Appropriations Committee for consideration.
Supporters say the $2 million would be money well spent given that some estimates say Utah would be hit by $40 billion in "lost development," should a listing occur.
Based on the success of current management efforts, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will decide in September of next year whether to list the greater sage grouse as endangered, according to Jason Robinson, upland game coordinator for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources.
Though the summit will focus on Utah's management of greater sage grouse, topics pertaining to the upcoming decision of whether to list the bird have ramifications throughout the bird's multi-state range, Messmer said.
"When the decision is made, it will affect 11 states and literally hundreds of thousands of people," he said. "We're bringing people together to talk about what counts toward conservation and what things we need to focus on from here on out so the threat of the listing essentially goes away."
DWR plans to identify specific goals dealing with greater sage grouse population monitoring and habitat restoration.
"What the summit boils down to is conservation of the species and getting everybody on the same page with that goal in mind," Robinson said. "Our main goal is to keep them off the Endangered Species list, and at the same time, allow recreation and some of the other industries to take place."
Messmer, who has been involved in greater sage grouse conservation for almost two decades, remains confident in the bird's likelihood to recover.
"The state of Utah is on the right track for addressing these concerns," he said. "We're optimistic that we can grow grouse."
Gov. Gary Herbert will give the summit's opening address.

Marlborough Girls' College crews stepped up at the Aon Maadi Cup secondary school rowing regatta yesterday, three crews reaching A finals and five making semifinals.
The under-18 pair of Portia Barcello and Jess Donald finished second in their morning repechage on a tranquil Lake Ruataniwha, booking a place in tomorrow's A final.
They were followed by the under-18 lightweight coxed four of Flo McIntosh, Hannah Warburton, Kate Rawcliffe, Annabel Masdaam and coxswain Meg Lamb, who came fifth in their repechage, also progressing to an A final.
Later in the day the under-17 eight, comprising McIntosh, Mollie Somerville, Georgina Williams, Lydia Mossman, Sammie Woollcombe, Warburton, Ruby McManaway, Tamara Porter and Lamb, rowed through for fourth in their repechage and will also compete in a final.
Another five crews booked semifinal spots on a busy day when schedules were compressed and time trials were run instead of some repechages to make up for the time lost when a storm passed through on Tuesday.
The under-15 coxed four of Sophie Robinson, Miranda Binsted-Pickering, Grace Lawson, Stella Blake and Annabel Cowlishaw were ranked 11th in the time trial format and will contest the semifinals. The under-18 novice double of Brydie Godsiff and Susie Grigg reached a quarterfinal, where they came home fourth and will also race in the semis. Their battle with fellow MGC crew, Ella Irvine and Tahlia Thompson was decided by .06 of a second, a tussle described by MGC head coach Dave Williamson as "the most exciting race for fourth he's seen in the whole regatta".
Irvine, Grigg, Thompson, Godsiff and cox Chloe Crawford were members of the under-18 novice coxed four who finished eighth under the time trial format while the under-17 girls coxed four of Williams, Mossman, Woollcombe, Tamara Porter and Lamb wound up seventh. Both will race semifinals today, as will the under-15 coxed quad of Robinson, Rawcliffe, Charlotte McKee, Stella Blake and Cowlishaw who claimed fifth fastest time.
Head coach Dave Williamson was happy with the MGC team's efforts. "It's been a long day. Pretty competitive . . . you get a couple of boats to A finals, you have to be happy about that. That's the first part of the week done and dusted, we've got five new opportunities tomorrow.
"I think every person in the squad is going to be rowing at least a B final on finals day, so at least everybody can say they've been in a boat among the top 16. It's been a good day."
Yesterday was a quieter time for the Marlborough Boys' College crews, many of whom had qualified for the semifinal stages already. Three more crews progressed to the final 16 yesterday.
The under-18 coxed four of Campbell Stevens, Zack Andrews, Jordon Gasson, Rainer Wichman and Trent Burbidge finished third in their heat and will contest a semi today.
The top under-16 double crew of Angus McFarlane and Leith Gilmore came second in their quarterfinal and also progress to a semifinal, emulating the under-15 double of Jack Delaveau and Nathan Honeybone, who were also runners-up in their quarterfinal.
It was a tough day for the under-17 double combination of Greg Hyson and Taylor Evans, who raced twice, finishing third in their repechage, then sixth in the quarterfinals.

My stint with RCB will help me improve: Kenya`s Mishra
Bangalore: Mumbai-born Kenyan cricketer Tanmay Mishra knows that it will be an arduous task to break into the playing XI of Royal Challengers Bangalore but is hopeful that it will be a great learning experience from him.
"I am very excited when I was picked by RCB. I knew I am going into a team with full of world-class players. It is a good opportunity for me to learn and improve my game and give my hundred per cent and enjoy this moment," he said in an interview to RCB`s official website.
Mishra, who made his ODI debut for Kenya in 2006 against Zimbabwe at Bulawayo, recalled his a gritty 72 runs knock against Australia in 2011 World Cup match at Chinnaswamy.
"In 2011, probably one of the best nights I have had in my life when I got an opportunity to play against Australia and I did quite well. Yes, this ground holds for me special memories," he said.
Mishra, in company with Collins Obuya, had shared a 115-run partnership after Kenya suffered early jolts while chasing a 325-run target set by Australia. Kenya lost the match who could score 264 in 50 overs.
"To be very honest even in 2007 when Afro-Asia Cup was introduced, I had captained the T20 squad. That was my first fond memories of Chinnaswamy stadium," he added.
Replying to a query, Mishra said there is no comparison between India and Kenya in terms of standard of cricket and the sheer passion people have towards the sport.
"The culture is different when we play cricket in Kenya. It is laidback and the competition is not as much as when you compare it to the test playing nations. To be fair, you cannot really compare India with Kenya," he said.
Mishra, a right-handed aggressive middle-order batsman, said the Indians take the sport seriously and is intense which has motivated him to improve his cricket.
"The culture over here is that cricket is very passionate. People love their game and it is very intense. So there was urge for me to improve cricket every day and that`s what keeps motivating me everyday to play this game," he said.

The website was easy to use (it was even easy to modify the original order), good variety, follow-up after the order was placed, received confirmation after the order was delivered. The quality of the food received was good. (Nothing with past or near expiration dates, nice produce selected.) I was quite pleased with the service, and will use again.
We found Garden Grocer by chance when looking at a Disney Vacation Club rental website. The layout of the website made it super easy to find the products we wanted to order for our trip to Disneyworld in June. We ordered both perishable and non-perishable items and were very impressed with the quality of the product. Although you will pay a bit more for the product through Garden Grocer than you would at a store, it is well worth the price as you are supposed to be on vacation and who want to go to the store. We would highly recommend Garden Grocer to anyone traveling to Orlando for vacation.
I would recommend Garden Grocer and we will definitely use the service again. It saved us the time of shopping on our vacation, renting a car that we rarely use while staying onsite. And the cost was very comparable with doing our own shopping, and I spent time prior to our vacation making a grocery list and placing the order. Impulse buying was avoided using Garden Grocer.
