Rudd sinks deeper
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (4:32pm)
Essential Research reports Labor only just ahead on two-party preferred: 51 to 49.
That's after a terrible week for Tony Abbott (and not a good one for Julie Bishop, either).
The key to Labor's fall seems a dramatic fall in support for Kevin Rudd personally, from a 71 per cent satisfaction rating in March last year to just 41 now. For the first time, Rudd's disapproval rating is higher than his approval at 47 per cent.
Yes, Tony Abbott's own approval ratings are so low (35 for to 50 against) that many claim he's keeping Labor in the game, but this ignores two things.
First, without Abbott as leader, the Liberals wouldn't be so close in the first place. There is no way that Malcolm Turnbull or even Joe Hockey could have come this close, when both backed Rudd's emissions trading scheme for a start.
Second, Opposition leaders generally struggle to command respect anyway.
But, yes, Abbott seems to be alienating the formerly undecideds. He has work to do. But I sense it's Rudd who is actually washed up.

Selling Australia as we love it
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (3:04pm)
Finally, a Tourism Australia ad which sells Australia, rather than the right-on chic of the advertising agency or the latest film of the director. I mean, remember Baz Lurhmann's movie tie-in:
And can you still remember the horror of these ads:
You won't remember most of the ads it shot in that $120 million "See Australia" campaign because half were so bad they were scrapped before they were even released.
One showed Aboriginal artist Barbara Weir, sitting in red dirt in faded clothes, quoting DH Lawrence in her local language and painting dots.
Another had poet Les Murray reciting lines from his work: "Shorts in that plain like are an angelic nudity. Spirituality with pockets!"
And a third had a Brett Whiteley seascape come to animated life, to the gasps of Michael Parkinson. They may have catered only to our pretentions, but the Australia Council hailed them as "sophisticated, subtle and sexy".
Yes, as travel ads they worked. Trouble was, those who saw them wanted to travel fast to any place but where they were, or were watching.
The very best of that lot was, I'm afraid, this:
But this latest? It's got the Opera House, the Bridge, the Reef, the Rock, the wildlife and the friendly locals - from the pub to the opera. All covered.

An ABC cleansing of conservatives
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (2:37pm)
Jon Faine has done a little of that "cleansing" of conservatives he once urged on the Herald Sun:
Between 2007 and 2009 Andrew McIntyre occupied the right wing chair in the 774 ABC Melbourne studio for Friday's Weekly Wrap segment on Jon Faine's morning radio show. Liberty Sanger, Labor lawyer and wife of ALP Senator David Feeney, represented the Left…
However, last December you could almost hear the pencils snap at the ABC when he strongly criticised Clive Hamilton during a segment on the Higgins byelection.
McIntyre's Hamilton critique might have been the final straw. The ABC withdrew the welcome mat for 2010 and replaced McIntyre with the decidedly milder Nick Maher of Gavin Anderson.
Before his gig on the Weekly Wrap, McIntyre was a regular co-host on Faine's Conversation Hour; and in that role also he was never backward in debunking leftist dogma. He returned to co-host one Conversation Hour this year, but hasn't been heard on the station since.

How Labor's green ban on dams will raise prices and kill gardens
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (2:02pm)
Kenneth Davidson estimates how much more Melburnians will pay for water, now that the Brumby Government is spending three times more for a desalination plant than it would for a dam that would give it three times the water:
Two years ago the retail price of water was 85¢ a kilolitre when the price reflected the cost of dam water of about 40¢ a kilolitre, so that the average household paid about $800 a year for its water. Now households pay about $1000, even though they are using less under restrictions.
(Water Minister) Tim Holding told Parliament on November 26 last year that the ''net present cost of water'' over the 30-year life of the contract with (desal operator) AquaSure would be $1.37 a kilolitre, which means the price of water to households after the retail mark-up would be $2.20 a kilolitre in 2012 for an annual water bill of $2000.
So, on Holding's own say-so, the price of water will double - meaning that most low-income families won't be able to maintain a garden.
But Holding (and the Brumby government) hasn't been telling the full story'…
The latest official estimated capital cost of the borrowings to finance the desal plant is $5.1 billion. This money has to be serviced and insured against default… But at what price? On the most conservative assumption, AquaSure will have to pay 10 per cent on its borrowings repayable over 30 years. This means the annual repayments on capital alone are $537 million a year, or $3.58 a kilolitre. In other words, the $1.37-a-kilolitre payment that Holding announced to Parliament doesn't even cover the cost of capital.
But there's more. The plant will cost just over $200 million a year to run, based on paying the premium for renewable energy as specified by the government - by coincidence, similar to the $1.37 claimed as the total cost by Holding…
A meaningful answer would have revealed the actual wholesale cost of water supplied with green energy would be $4.90 - almost four times higher than Holding told Parliament. This converts to a retail price of $7.90, meaning the average household water bill will be about $3000 after the desal water is mixed with the dam water.
The Government's green ban on dams will make water a luxury for the poor and gardens unaffordable. It's a wicked irony: that green policies will de-green our our suburbs, replacing lawns with concrete.

MTR today
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (11:16am)
On our MTR show today, I discuss with Steve Price and Ray Hadley the latest two examples of Kevin Rudd's deceit - his taxpayer-funded political advertisements and the revelations that he betrayed then NSW Premier Morris Iemma. We replay a spray Rudd got today from former NSW Labor Treasurer Michael Costa.
Also on the menu - the hypocritical monstering of Jason Akermanis and a question for Victorian Transport Minister Martin Pakula (a nice bloke, actually). Listen at the link.

Guess when Rudd will be dumped. My tip: next month
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (11:14am)
Today's news for Kevin Rudd:
- controversy grows over his effective embezzlement of $38 million of taxpayers' money for party advertising.
- the Liberals prepare to grill the Rudd Government in Parliament for having lied in excusing this embezzlement, claiming it had been deemed necessary to combat advertising that hadn't even existed at the time the decision was made.
- Iranian refugees have their house burned by faulty insulation installed under Rudd's disastrous free-insulation scheme.
- a former NSW Premier and Treasurer attack Rudd for having betrayed them, lied to them, squibbed a critical reform and squandered billions in public money. Said former Treasurer Michael Costa: "It goes to the issue of his character, and the election is more and more an issue, that will be the central issue of the election campaign. Is the prime minister believable? Is he credible? He's broken a number of promises, including the one to Morris, but others that certainly have had major financial consequences. Character will be the issue… I speak to ... died-in-the-wool Labor people who have really turned off this bloke… I think this bloke has lost the public. "
- new mining company ads start attacking Rudd's assault on the economy through his super profits tax.
- the Tasmanian branch of the Australian Medical Association warns that Rudd's super clinics will be a Whitlam-style waste of money.
That's just today's news.
My tip is that Rudd is now finished and will be replaced. I'm guessing this could even occur within four weeks.
Your own guess?

Rudd now on fire
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (11:10am)
Yet another fire, with Kevin Rudd the one who's burned:
A family of Iranian refugees was lucky to escape unscathed when a fire sparked by poorly installed insulation broke out in the roof of their home in Melbourne's north at the weekend.
The blaze, in Lalor, was the second within 24 hours caused by insulation installed under the federal government's botched home insulation scheme, as fire investigators say they fear another death from faulty roof insulation is inevitable as the colder months approach.
Yesterday on Insiders I noted that the Metropolitan Fire Brigade seemed to be going out of its way to report that it was Rudd's free insulation that caused an earlier fire last week in the home of a Holocaust survivor. Neil Mitchell on 3AW today claims someone in Canberra has rung the MFB to tell them to stop it.

The racism of the patronising Left
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (10:50am)
You know how all blacks are jive-talking gangsters at heart?
No, of course you don't. Conservatives abhor such racist stereotyping. But a Leftist commentator like Bill Maher, on the other hand...:
I thought when we elected a black president, we were going to get a black president. You know, this [BP oil spill] is where I want a real black president. I want him in a meeting with the BP CEOs, you know, where he lifts up his shirt where you can see the gun in his pants. That's—(in black man voice) 'we've got a motherfu**ing problem here?' Shoot somebody in the foot.

How Iemma learned Rudd's word was worthless
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (9:25am)
Morris Iemma was one of the first to realise you could not trust a word Kevin Rudd said:
A FURTHER blow has been dealt to Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's credibility, with revelations he broke a critical promise to help former NSW premier Morris Iemma privatise the state's electricity industry in return for him delaying the project until after Mr Rudd was elected in November 2007…
In a secret meeting during the 2007 APEC summit, Mr Rudd pleaded with Mr Iemma to delay plans to privatise the power industry over fears a union backlash would torpedo his election campaign - a campaign fought largely on John Howard's industrial reforms.
"If you help me, I'll get elected and you will prosper. Work with me and, when the time comes, we can f. . . them [the unions] together," Mr Rudd is revealed to have told Mr Iemma in a meeting attended by two other senior Labor staffers…
Less than a year later, having walked away from the commitment, Mr Rudd refused to step in to protect Labor MPs under threat from unions opposing privatisation when Mr Iemma called to have the favour returned.
"I'm asking you to support me on a matter of principle," Mr Iemma asked the PM in a telephone conversation on August 27, 2008.
"It's a state issue, I can't get involved," Mr Rudd replied.
A week later Mr Iemma was forced from office after his privatisation plans collapsed.
More from Simon Benson's new book Betrayal:
"I want you to push the pause button on this," Rudd told NSW Premier Morris Iemma.
"Things are looking good for us in the polls." ...
Iemma was blunt, telling Rudd that any leverage the state government had to get the policy through was with him now. A delay could be politically and financially costly for his government…
"We can't win this thing at conference," said Iemma, referring to the NSW Labor State Conference due in June the following year…
Rudd was nevertheless insistent. He told Iemma that if he was elected in place of Howard, the unions would have to take on not just a state Labor leader, but a Labor prime minister as well…
"Our job in government is to do these things," Rudd said to Iemma. "These are the types of reforms that have to be done… If you help me, I'll get elected and you will prosper. Work with me and, when the time comes, we can f… them together."
Iemma, reluctantly, said he would agree to hold off – so long as Rudd committed to the national executive vetoing any state conference defeat of Iemma's policy.
"If they take you on at conference, if they try to take the government on through the Party, we will prevail," said Rudd.
But when Iemma got around to telling his firebrand treasurer, Michael Costa, the architect of their $15 billion electricity privatisation plan, Costa exploded…
"Look, Rudd is a policy lightweight. You only have to listen to him a few minutes to work that out," Costa argued. "He is only interested in himself. He doesn't give a f… about electricity, or NSW Labor!
(Thanks to reader CA.)
Alan Jones interviews Morris Iemma and Michael Costa about their betrayal by Kevin Rudd. Costa is particularly scathing. Listen here.
The most devastating comments come from Costa:
It goes to the issue of his character, and the election is more and more an issue, that will be the central issue of the election campaign Is the Prime Minister believable? Is he credible? He's broken a number of promises, including the one to Morris, but others that certainly have had major financial consequences. Character will be the issue…
I speak to ... died-in-the-wool Labor people who have really turned off this bloke… I think this bloke has lost the public. "

How have we come to raise such ferals?
Andrew Bolt –, Monday, May, 31, 2010, (6:46am)
The brutality in the video is astonishing, and the statistics show us it's increasing:
JADE Whitford is on her knees, exhausted and injured after wrestling with a Year 9 student for just under 30 seconds.
As a teacher tries to put himself between the brawling girls, Jade's attacker launches one final, gutless blow: a kick to her victim's head.
There's a sickening crack and Jade's head snaps back. She falls to the ground clutching her nose....
Last year, 154 violent incidents in schools involving girls aged 10 to 17 were reported to police, compared with just 89 five years ago. During the same period, the number of male attacks rose from 254 to 291.
Another incident:
POLICE have charged two girls over the assault of a teenage schoolmate at Ingleburn in Sydney's south-west.
Just before 9pm on May 28, a large group of people gathered outside the Delauney Street home of the 15-year-old victim. Police allege the victim emerged from her house and became involved in a fight with a 13-year-old girl.
It's further alleged the younger girl produced a broken bottle and slashed her rival's left hip.
A third girl, aged 14, allegedly separated the pair and then assaulted the 15-year-old.
The older girl was taken to Campbelltown Hospital where she received up to 45 stitches to the wound.

First at Five, May 27, 2008
LAKE THURMOND--- Two men drowned two weekends in a row at Lake Thurmond. Experts say low water levels may be causing these problems.
A little island has become a trouble spot at the lake. Two people died trying to swim from the shore out to it.
Some say the low lake level is why people are going out farther. The part people are supposed to swim in is now just sand.
"That's completely out of water. That's what people were intended to swim in, but they're venturing out in the main bodies of the lake," said Corporal Ryan Swain.
He says that trek can be a dangerous one because there are drop-offs in the lake.Within a yard, people can go from being in three feet of water to being in fifteen feet.
"You see from the things that happened, unfortunately, you just you don't know, and so I definitely would think twice before you do it," said Collette Wolfgram the aquatics director at the Wilson YMCA.
She says when people are swimming, they may not really realize how far they're going.
"A hundred yards is a lot further than people think," she said.
That hundred yards led to the death of 27-year-old Olvin Interiano on Memorial Day, and 20-year-old Serr Master Dozier the weekend before.
Wolfgram says sometimes people get nervous and make bad decisions when they think they've gone too far in the water.
"So that's where your swim lessons come back into play, where you learn your survival float," she said.
She recommends people of all ages take swim lessons, especially to learn what to do if you get in trouble.
She says it's best to start early. Classes at the YMCA start at just six-months-old, but she says adults shouldn't be embarassed to take them, too.
"A lot of them will come to us thinking that they're gonna be the only one in the class and we max out with 20-something sometimes," Wolfgram said.
She hopes those classes will continue to fill up, and maybe prevent more tragedies like the ones on the lake.
"It's just a reminder that we need to not take for granted the water below us," she said.

Dr.B at Revival is helping us choose supplements for our very ill chihuahua who is down to 2lbs, fighting possible cancer or something that is not clearly diagnosed as of yet. She is anemic and we are using this to help her red blood cells.Thank you Revival for helping us with supplement choices to build her up! She is already showing more energy in just 2 days on these supplements.
Was told by Revival to use for 2 weeks. Well at first my 3 girl wasn't to for sure about the taste. Now strating in the 2nd weeks not to bad one will even lick the syringe now. They said most there B vitamins with drop & this is the first step to getting them right but this can also be a final step as well. Only thing I don't is once the 2 weeks is how would it take for signs of them coming in to heat? I gave the 4 stars where they love the taste.
I use this to offset the taste of mixing capsuled or tablet meds with liquid to get the right percentage quantity to give to kittens and cats. I use 2-3 mL of the vitamin syrup instead of plain water to give a more palatable taste and cover the bitterness. I refrigerate the mixed meds and use within 10 days. Works great especially when the tablets or capsules would need to be divided into tiny quantities and not practical.

Calling support was useless. they waste an hour of your time walking you through command prompts, etc, and are attempting to convince you that your computer and tv jacks are blown and that there is no problem with the product itself. They then ask that you buy an extended warranty, pay for shipping to return the product, pay for shipping to have the replacement sent and when u get the replacement, it doesnt work either. If you go back to the store where u bought the product, (in our case staples), they will not refund your money and will say that you opened the package and the item is used and you broke it and will only offer you another one which when u get that home it will not work either.
This company is a scam, buying defective items in bulk from china, buying specifically lots that the manufacturer set aside as defective just like the Dollar tree store does (defective, irregular and out of date items). In the end we got screwed over 1000. in items that none of it works and the company refuses to make good for. Anyone. someone, a lawyer that will help file a class action lawsuit plz help us! Let's get this scamming company shut down and out of business!

Mach Technologies has been around for twenty-plus years and you don't stay in business selling fraudulent products. I can only speak for the MP3 players that I've purchased as gifts - 5 over the past several years, and all have worked fine.
They do not tell people to not return product to vendor so they can keep their money - sheesh! That is commonplace with many electronic items to include that worded notation to contact customer support as opposed to returning your product. It's typically done and there is usually a resolution to assist you to understanding how to operate your product. Anyway, unless it is stated somewhere that all sales are final, there is no reason one could not return their product.
By the way, one doesn't 'Google' something. Google is a company name... You have done an Internet search. Think of tissues and Kleenex, same thing. Kleenex is a brand of tissues. Before I purchased my recent Mach Speed PMP's, I did an Internet search on those particular models and just on Amazon alone found numerous positive reviews.
You should have contacted customer support first before posting such a bad review. This is not a rip-off company. Sheesh!!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Stress and Fighting
This is it, I thought gloomily, today's the day they come. After a night of worry and fright, I was ready to get this over with. I could tell every one else was too. I didn't bother much with appearances, I just threw on white washed jeans, a tee and a cropped jean jacket. I sighed heavily. I was ready to finish this problem. I never wanted the Volturi in Forks ever again. I wanted to know that Charlie was safe, I wanted to know that Renesme was safe, above all the rest, I wanted to know my family was safe. Especially Edward. Edward came up behind me during my reverie and hugged me. Even without knowing what I was thinking, he could make a good guess. "I know, love. It will all be over soon. Alice is pretty sure that nothing will go awry. Then we'll come to the bigger problem. Where are we going to move to? I still think the tropics would be a good change." I sighed again.
"Right. Jacob. I honestly have no idea what we're going to do about him. Let's focus on the problem at hand. We should probably get back to the house to hear what the game plan is." I turned in his arms and I saw his wary smile.
"Right," I said, standing on my tip toes to reach him. "Let's get this over with," I finished, twining my fingers in his hair. I pressed my lips to his with the strangest feeling of fear and worry sinking into my every pore. But that was on the back burner, in a way. My focus was on Edward. I was so aware of him. Electricity buzzed through me so sporadically, I knew he could feel it too. But then we had to go. We ran hand in hand back to the house and through the front yard. I could see everyone through the windows and everyone was dressed and ready to go meet the Volturi. I had already told Charlie to stay out of the forest and everything was ready.
Carlisle and Emmett were deep in conversation and Emmet, as always, had a huge smile on his face. He could always find the humor in anything bad, evil, sad, or otherwise deadly in some form. I heard their conversation as though they were standing next to me, even though we were in the front yard, by the huge oak that shaded nearly half of the yard. Carlisle began, "We should probably leave to meet them soon. Alice said that they would arrive near noon. It's already 9 o'clock."
"I'd like to see the looks on their faces if we didn't show," Emmett grinned. I bit back a growl. He knew the danger that that would ensue. Especially to everyone human in Forks. Edward soothed me, "It's okay, it was only a stupid idea. You know how many of those Emmett comes up with a month," he said, smiling. Emmett, of course, barked a quick laugh and returned to his conversation. "Where are we meeting them anyway?" he asked
"The same place as last time." Of course the same place as the last time. Nearly everything that was pivotal happened there. James spotting me, Renesme being threatened, and of course, now this. "So, basically, we leave right now with everyone, plus 15 wolves?" Emmett put it, point blank.
"Yes, basically."
"Then let's go kick some Volturi butt!" he shouted with a huge smile.
We ran to the clearing and waited. And waited. And waited. "Oh come on!" Emmett exclaimed, "What's taking so long?!?!?!"
"Here they come now," Edward whispered. Renesme remembered the Volturi and shuddered beside me. I hugged he to my side as Jacob whimpered. He didn't like anything that scared her.
Finally, they broke out from the trees, like last time, but much smaller. Aro still hoped that Alice would join the Volturi, I'd bet anything. I spread my shield out over my family and hoped that I wouldn't need to make it tangible. My favorite thing about this was the fact that Aro didn't know how I've grown and if he was frightened this time, I could imagine it this time. I nearly laughed at the face I pictured him making when he found out how much I've developed my gift. Carlisle was obviously relieved that he didn't bring the whole guard this time. "Aro, my dear friend! Has it already been seven years since I saw you? It felt like it was only yesterday!" he laughed and walked forward a few feet.
"The feeling is mutual, dear Carlisle," Aro said in his whisper of a voice. He glanced at me before saying, "I trust that you've all been well?"
"Correct. Bella has improved her gift ten fold." I nearly cracked up when I saw Aro blanch. I looked over at Edward, and saw his lips pressed together, fighting back a laugh. Emmett, however, didn't try to stop his laughter. His amusement rang out over the field, leaving Aro looking kinda POed and the rest of us, and the guard fighting back a smile.
Carlisle turned toward me, smiling politely, "Bella, would you like to show him a bit of the new things you can do?"
"Yes, I would love to, actually." I smirked and made my shield tangible and see able. Aro gasped and looked like he would faint. The guard showed looks of awe and fear. Even Marcus looked slightly interested. Aro's face was even whiter when I changed it to form around each person I desired it to. It showed everyone's aura. Carlisle was white, Edward was amber, Emmett was hunter's green, Rosalie was a beautiful silk red, the wolves were of course, brown, and Renesme was a pale pink. I couldn't see my aura, but I knew it was lilac. But he was the palest of pales when I formed shield guards with ever changing auras. There were maybe fifty of my guards and Aro couldn't believe his eyes. Jane was incredulous, realizing that she couldn't harm anyone and that she would be an easy target if it came to a fight. I glanced at Edward, and I wondered if showing Aro my skills was right.

After a thrilling 4-1 victory at home to Yeovil Town on Saturday, Darren Fergusons' men look to make it four on the bounce with a win in the Checkatrade Trophy on Tuesday night at Mansfield.
Mansfield away is the first trip in the competition for Doncaster, as they embark on the first round of the Checkatrade trophy round 1, but all does not lie on this game, as we still have to play Port Vale and Derby Countys' academy. For this match I'd like to see some of the younger players have a run out, such as Pugh, Mandeville and Beestin, but one thing that would mean, is that Ferguson would have to dismantle a squad with a winning mentality.
One problem for sure is our defence; we now have 7 injured defenders, with Mitchell Lund the latest casualty vs Yeovil last Saturday, but now we also lose Joe Wright, who has been called up to Wales U21 squad and will miss Mansfield and Crewes' game. So that only leaves us with Evina and Butler as recognised defenders, but this could create an opportunity for youngsters Reece Fielding and Danny Amos.
I can also see goalkeeper Ross Etheridge having a chance to redeem himself during the cup, after being dropped for Marko Marosi very early on this season.
One thing is for certain and that is Ferguson will want to keep Williams in the squad, after the striker netted three goals in his last match; he'll want Williams to hopefully continuing to score to keep up the flow. No players are expected to return from injury for this match, as Paul Keegan has been ruled out for an extra month, and Baudry and McSheffrey are about 3 or 4 weeks away too.
Last time Rovers played Mansfield was ten years ago, in the FA cup. We drew 1-1 with them at their ground, but in the replay we beat them 2-0 at Belle Vue. Mark McCammon, Paul Heffernan and Brian Stock all scoring during those two matches. Overall, Rovers have won 19 of their 65 previous meetings since 1932, but with it being 10 years since we last faced them, will we manage to make it 20?
Predicted line-up v Mansfield:
Etheridge; Fielding, Butler, Amos; Blair, Middleton, Beestin, Calder, Evina; Pugh and Williams.
by The Rovers Review
Doncaster earned their second win of the season last weekend against Gary Johnsons' Cheltenham Town, and they look to strengthen that with a win when Yeovil Town visit the Keepmoat this Saturday. One thing is for sure - John Marquis, will be the first name on the team sheet. He has not only scored two in his last two games but has also provided the winning goals in both of those matches.
James Coppinger and Tommy Rowe are two other players that are beginning to get exciting; they seem to have developed a good relationship in midfield and communicate well with each other. The more matches they play together, the bigger the threat they'll become.
Marko Marosi looks set for his third consecutive start for Rovers. In his last two games he's kept two clean sheets, albeit he hasn't had too much to do, but he's done his job when required, and with more match game experience, he will improve - hopefully! However, Marosi may lose his place if Darren Ferguson signs an 'experienced' goalkeeper before Saturday, as he's mentioned in one of his interviews of late.
For the first time in a while our starting eleven picks itself, but the only issue there could be is that, due to injures, we don't have a very experienced bench for back-up. However if a youth player is needed to come on then they might play with no pressure and be just as good as any other experienced player.
Yeovil, similar to Doncaster, have had an inconsistent start; losing two, drawing one and winning one. They've also scored exactly the same amount as goals as we have too, so it could be an exciting match to watch. Rovers have had the most shots in the EFL so far this year, so hopefully we can begin to convert those chances into more goals.
Doncaster have faced Yeovil Town 14 times in the past 13 years, winning 4. The 4 matches we have won have been in more recent years, and the last time they came to the Keepmoat we won 3-0, with goals from Natahan Tyson, Dean Furman and Kyle Bennett; so who knows - could we repeat that scoreline from early 2015?
Predicted lineup v Yeovil Town
Marosi; Lund, Butler, Wright, Evina; Blair, Rowe, Coppinger, Houghton; Marquis and Williams.
by The Rovers Review
After a deserving 1-0 win at the Keepmoat on Tuesday night against Cambridge United, Rovers look to get some momentum going, by earning a second consecutive victory v Cheltenham this Saturday. Not a lot went wrong for Rovers on Tuesday, so it's hard to pick areas for them to improve on, but one for sure is how clinical we are the box. The amount of shots we had on goal (and shots that realistically we should've taken), we should've arguably won by more than one goal. If we can make sure that we are clinical in the box, and perform like we did on Tuesday night, then I for one will be even more optimistic for the rest of the season - but it's all down to consistency now.
Ferguson still has the same dilemma to face regarding goalkeepers, after rotating Marosi and Etheridge for the past four games, but I think he'll stick with Marosi for this game, as he said that he wants to take Etheridge out of the firing line for a while. I do think Marosi is worth a shot for the next game, because he's kept a clean sheet and has been at the club for just over 2 years. Ferguson also switched from 3-5-2 to 4-4-2 when we earned our first three points of the season, so I would like to think he'll stick with the 4-4-2, because it was the best that we've played so far this season, and with Blair and Evina charging down the wings, we looked like a massive threat!
Last time we faced Cheltenham was in 2008/09 season when we beat them 3-0 in the FA cup, and last time we faced them in the league they beat us 2-1 just a year prior to the FA cup victory, so I hope that we have more of the result like we had in the FA cup this time round. Cheltenham have also had a very good start this season, since their return to the football league, under a very good manager in, Gary Johnson. They can't be taken lightly, and it's going to be a tough match, because they'll still have the momentum from promotion. They're also undefeated in their first three games of season, drawing all three of them, so hopefully we can be the team to give them their first loss of the season!
Predicted lineup v Cheltenham
Marosi; Lund, Wright, Butler, Evina; Blair, Houghton, Coppinger, Rowe; Marquis and Williams.
by The Rovers Review
After a deflating draw on Saturday, Darren Ferguson looks to motivate his players up for a quick turnaround, for the visit of Shaun Derrys', Cambridge United. Doncaster last faced Cambridge in the FA cup in December 2015, in a 3-1 victory, which saw Fergusons' team through to the third round. Goals from Mitchell Lund and a double from Conor Grant helped Rovers on their way, but without Conor Grant this time round, who could help us with the goals this time? John Marquis has come very close in last few games, and I would hope that on a Tuesday night under the floodlights, that Marquis will shine, and finally get his goal that he deserves.
Andy Williams may lose his place, after Ferguson seems to be losing patience with the 30 year-old, after he missed two game-changing shots on Saturday, and Liam Mandeville could be the guy to step in his place. Mandeville has come on as a substitute during the last three games for Rovers, and has impressed on each occasion, even scoring a goal, so could this be the time for the 19 year-old to shine - I hope so! Riccardo Calder doesn't look good enough playing at LWB, so I'd favour someone, such as Cedric Evina to take his place for this game.
Darren Ferguson will also have a dilemma for his back 3 or 4, because on-loan defender, Niall Mason, has been ruled out for the match, after picking up an injury during Saturday's match, but youngster, Tyler Garrett could be his replacement after a good performance in last two games that he has been brought on.
Ferguson has confirmed that McSheffrey and Baudry are out for at least another three or four games, but didn't mention Keegan, which could indicate he could be on the verge of a return, so one silver lining to our form at the moment, is that we're very close to getting our squad fit again.
I really hope that we can pull of a victory here on Tuesday night, because I believe once we get that first win the confidence will come, and that we could go on a very good run, but we need to get the win first!
Predicted lineup v Cambridge:
Etheridge; Wright, Butler, Garrett; Blair, Coppinger, Rowe, Houghton, Evina; Marquis and Williams.
by The Rovers Review
After two defeats in a row, Rovers look to get back on track as they host their first home league game of the 2016/17 campaign against Crawley. This is the best opportunity for Ferguson, and the players to set the standard for this season, because Crawley are a standard league two side, who are going to be similar to most of the oppositions that we'll be facing this season.
I look forward to seeing what line-up Ferguson goes for, because obviously he has Wright and Middleton now back to match fitness, and may have Paul Keegan on the bench. Joe Wright has now made two appearances for the club, and has impressed on both occasions, and he even won man of the match on Tuesday vs Nottingham Forest, so I expect that he'll be one of the first names on the team sheet.
It will be interesting to see what formation he goes with too, because he has received a bit of stick for his usual 3-5-2 system, but I understand he has used that, because of injuries, but now like I say, with players coming back I think it should be about time he reverts to his 4-4-2 diamond formation - but I personally think he will stick with the 3-5-2.
Liam Mandeville is another player who will be giving Ferguson a headache, because he came on as a substitute during the cup game vs Nottingham Forest, and scored the equaliser to bring Rovers back into the game, but who would Fergie take out of the squad attacking wise?
The debate will also continue into this match; whether Ferguson should chose Etheridge or Marosi to go in goal. Marosi impressed on Tuesday night, and with Etheridge having a poor performance on Saturday I really wouldn't want to be in Ferguson's position, because I'm torn between who I'd like to see in goal. Personally, I think Etheridge deserves another chance, because people do have off days, but at the same time I think Marosi deserves a chance after how patient he has been over recent years!
Not only do we need three points from this game, but we need to make sure that we stop conceding both early and late in the game, and that we tighten up a lot more, and stop getting un-done on the counter.
Last time Doncaster faced Crawley, was in February 2015, in league one, where Paul Dickov over saw a thrilling 5-0 victory for Rovers; which has been our biggest victory since. I sincerely hope that we have a similar result this Saturday, or the pressure is going to be growing even greater on Darren Ferguson!
Predicted lineup vs Crawley
Etheridge; Mason, Butler, Wright; Blair, Houghton, Rowe, Middleton, Calder; Marquis and Williams.

Malaika Arora excited to dance with Pawan Kalyan
The actress has said that she is impressed with the track. Malaika Arora believes that the track has all the ingredients, which has made her to wait on her toes to dance for the item number. However, the actress has refused to reveal further details about the song.
Malaika Arora will be seen moving her hips for the Telugu version of 'Munni badnaam hui..' from Dabangg. It is interesting to note that the actress, who turned down the offer to do the item number in the Tamil version, gave green signal to do the same act in Gabbar Singh, which features Shruti Hassan, Suhasini Mani Ratnam, Abhimanyu Singh and others in the cast.
However, it may be recalled that Malaika Arora had earlier done an item number in Athidhi.

I love the new 3.5 media manager and would really like to use it in a plugin I'd written. Basically, it would be wonderful to be able to call it and have it return a list of media id's the user selected.
This would not actually be 3.5-specific, but the new media manager is so nice that it inspired me to look around. I see alternate media pickers out there, but I could not dig up help on hooking into the built in media manger. Right now the media manager allows users to: Insert Media, Create Gallery, and Set Featured Image. Is there a way to add a new option to this list?
Any pointers would be welcome.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Whimsical, Cute
What are you most proud of? She is so proud of her decorated jacket that she wants to embroider all of her jackets and hoodies.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? I used a water-activated adhesive tearaway stabilizer and hooped it. I used cutaway stabilizer with spray adhesive and attached it to the back of the denim jacket. Then I place it on top of the hooped stabilizer. The denim is too thick to hoop the traditional way.

Groves: Froch Has An Awful Style, Technically Terrible!
George Groves pulls no punches on tonight's Behind The Ropes on Sky Sports – describing Carl Froch's technique as 'awful' and rejecting the champion as a fighting man ahead of their clash for Froch's WBA and IBF World Super Middleweight titles on Saturday at Wembley Stadium connected by EE, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
The second part of the fly-on-the-wall look at preparations in the Froch and Groves camps airs at 7pm tonight on Sky Sports 1, as we edge closer to their grudge rematch at the national stadium.
Groves called their first meeting a 'daylight robbery' when Froch survived a first round knockdown and a furious onslaught in a sixth round that the Londoner called 'the worst round in Carl Froch's career', only for the Nottingham star to retain his titles with a controversial ninth round stoppage.
The rivalry between the pair has escalated rapidly since the first fight was announced, and Groves raises the stakes again as in tonight's show, ruthlessly dissecting The Cobra's 'awful style'.
"He is ignorant enough that if he is getting hit as long as he is landing something he will keep punching," said Groves. "Technically it's terrible. It's an awful, awful style you would never encourage a fighter to box that way, you would never encourage a young kid who's just joined the gym to box like that.
"He is not a fighting man, he doesn't stalk people, he doesn't pressure fight, he doesn't back people up with aggression. He likes to stand at long range flick out a jab and hope that switches his opponent off enough so that he can dive in gun-slinging punching from the hip, crossing his feet, after two three punches digging his heels in deep enough so he can keep punching.
"Every time he gets caught he wants to go and trade he only ever trades like that when he has no other options so again coming back to that warrior mentality. I feel like it's a false truth because if he could sit and dance and look pretty then he would but he doesn't have to ability to do that so it's always back against the wall stuff with him. If you go back and look at his fights its always desperation and for that that's the reason why you'll see him fight he way he fights.
"If he wants to concentrate on the physical aspect and that he feels he can be physically superior or superior enough that he has won the fight before he enters the ring; I wish him luck. He's eleven years older than me, he's coming off the back of a horrific beating and if he trying to do something different and runs the risk of over training.
"He's on his fight weight eight weeks out. You ask any World class fighter out there – that's never a good idea. He can sit there and try and take confidence from the way I make weight, I might drop a couple of pounds the night before – it makes no blind a difference to me."
Groves' grudge rematch with Froch is part of a huge night of action at Wembley, with James DeGale MBE facing Brandon Gonzales in a final eliminator for Froch's IBF title.
Jamie McDonnell tackles Tabtimdaeng Na Rachawat for the vacant WBA Bantamweight title, Kevin Mitchell meets Ghislain Maduma in a final eliminator for the IBF Lightweight title and Olympic Gold medal hero Anthony Joshua MBE faces Matt Legg in his sixth pro contest.

Amazon.com Review
Author Todd Kliman sets out on an epic quest to unravel the mystery behind Norton, a grape used to make a Missouri wine that claimed a prestigious gold medal at an international exhibition in Vienna in 1873. At a time when the vineyards of France were being ravaged by phylloxera, this grape seemed to promise a bright future for a truly American brand of wine-making, earthy and wild. And then Norton all but vanished. What happened?
The narrative begins more than a hundred years before California wines were thought to have put America on the map as a wine-making nation and weaves together the lives of a fascinating cast of renegades. We encounter the suicidal Dr. Daniel Norton, tinkering in his experimental garden in 1820s Richmond, Virginia. Half on purpose and half by chance, he creates a hybrid grape that can withstand the harsh New World climate and produce good, drinkable wine, thus succeeding where so many others had failed so fantastically before, from the Jamestown colonists to Thomas Jefferson himself. Thanks to an influential Long Island, New York, seed catalog, the grape moves west, where it is picked up in Missouri by German immigrants who craft the historic 1873 bottling. Prohibition sees these vineyards burned to the ground by government order, but bootleggers keep the grape alive in hidden backwoods plots. Generations later, retired Air Force pilot Dennis Horton, who grew up playing in the abandoned wine caves of the very winery that produced the 1873 Norton, brings cuttings of the grape back home to Virginia. Here, dot-com-millionaire-turned-vintner Jenni McCloud, on an improbable journey of her own, becomes Norton's ultimate champion, deciding, against all odds, to stake her entire reputation on the outsider grape.
Brilliant and provocative, The Wild Vine shares with readers a great American secret, resuscitating the Norton grape and its elusive, inky drink and forever changing the way we look at wine, America, and long-cherished notions of identity and reinvention.

Guest Review by Darin Strauss
A recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship, a National Book Critics Circle Award, and numerous other prizes, the internationally-bestselling writer Darin Strauss is the author of the acclaimed novels Chang & Eng, The Real McCoy, and More Than It Hurts You and the NBCC-winning memoir Half a Life. These have been New York Times Notable Books, Newsweek, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Chicago Tribune, and NPR Best Books of the Year, and Darin has been translated into fourteen languages and published in nineteen countries. He is a Clinical Associate Professor at NYU's creative writing program.
The Wild Vine is a wonder—fun, smart, fascinating, eye-opening. It's the wine book as a thrilling mystery.
It's the true story of a man obsessed by a grape: the Norton, invented by a driven American who named the variety he created after himself. Stubborn, ambitious, a product of his time and place, and also a uniquely American inventor, Daniel Norton.
But Norton is just one of the unforgettable characters Todd Kliman brings us. The other is Michael Marsh, a multi-millionaire software guru who glimpses a new life for himself when he takes his first sip of the Norton. That epiphany sends him on a rollicking journey of personal discovery, one that sees him change his sex and establish a winery meant to restore the doctor's legacy.
Beyond these poignant, enthralling stories, The Wild Vine gives you the history of wine-making in America. What's amazing is that the career of American wineries follows that of America herself; only when growers found the courage to use national varieties—that is, only when Americans discovered their own character of grape—did American wine come into its own.
It's also the story of German American immigration; of the American viticultural scene (which used to be Missouri!); of Prohibition; even of sexual politics in America.
In captivating prose Kliman relates one of those magical little American stories that illuminate the whole country. And so The Wild Vine is not only a wonderful, strange read; it's a first-rate American history lesson.
