Kodiak Oil and Gas (NYSE: KOG) is one of the more volatile energy independents, which I think can be attributed to its status as a small cap, its limited drilling focus currently restricted to the Williston Basin, and its lack of a dividend, which consistently leads investors to dump Kodiak holdings to lock in gains. However, indicators are that this streak may be about to end, leading to solid gains for Kodiak in the near future.
Solid Growth Trajectory: It's in the Numbers
Kodiak's sales volumes continue to climb. Its preliminary numbers indicate that in the third quarter of 2012, Kodiak's average sales volume was 15,855 boe per day, over a 300% increase over the same quarter the year prior and a 25% increase quarter over quarter. Fully 88% of these sales volumes were in crude. This is fueling Kodiak's growth trajectory, as the company remains fully committed to an aggressive fourth quarter drilling and completion schedule.
Unlike some of its competitors which grew too quickly and now face the prospect of drilling in non-core areas in order to keep a leasehold active, Kodiak reports that most of its position is fully held by production. This will allow it to move its rigs to multi-well pads in the promising Polar and Smokey project areas by the end of this year. Kodiak plans to institute downspacing at 1,280 acre intervals in these areas once permitting is completed.
Drilling costs also continue to decline for Kodiak, a result both of drilling efficiencies and of improved infrastructure on the Bakken. According to Kodiak Chairman and CEO Lynn Peterson, the completion problems Kodiak experienced earlier this year have been "eliminated," and the company's new focus in multi-well pads and zipper fracking has reduced completion times overall.
Kodiak expects to close 2012 with an exit rate of 27,000 boe per day. This is a drop in a very large bucket, as total Williston oil output alone totals some 639,000 barrels per day. However, its consistent gains are encouraging, as is the improving natural gas price picture that could move Kodiak to flare less of its natural gas output and channel these resources into sales.
Competitor Successes Leading to M&A Environment
Kodiak competitor GMX Resources (NYSE: GMXR) is also becoming more efficient. GMX recently completed its first drilled well with oil-based mud in the Williston, reaching target depth in less than a month at a cost of $4 million. GMX is moving towards a focus on the Middle Bakken using plug and perf fracking to increase operating its efficiencies. After its recent $69 million East Texas asset sale, GMX is casting its eyes northward to Kodiak's territories on the Williston. According to GMX President Michael J. Rohleder, this asset sale will allow GMX to "focus on remaining near-term catalysts for our shareholders, which include higher daily oil production through improved completions, lower costs per well, and more wells drilled per rig per year."
Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM) is also moving north, seizing the opportunity to own oil rich Canadian shale in the Duvernay and Montnay formations from Celtic Exploration in a deal valued at $2.86 billion. These plays are easier for Exxon Mobil to enter than the relatively nearby Williston since Williston acreage is not only held piecemeal by hundreds of operators but is also nearly leased out. This is Exxon Mobil's biggest move into shale oil in one stroke so far, and indicates that the world's largest oil company might be preparing itself for further shale oil acquisitions. The Williston would be a sensible target for the firm, which has the resources to buy many of the smaller play operators outright - including Kodiak.
On the heels of Exxon Mobil's announcement, independent Halcon Resources (NYSE: HK) announced it would buy about $1.45 billion in Williston assets from Petro-Hunt. The deal encompasses some 81,000 net acres with average net production over 10,500 boe per day and proved reserves totaling 4.24 mboe. Halcon Chairman and CEO noted that the move is part of Halcon's goal "of building an oil company with a multi-year drilling inventory in several liquids-rich basins."
In the meantime, one operator decided that the Williston was no longer a top priority: Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK). According to Petroleum News, Chesapeake quietly removed the Williston from its major plays sometime in the past few weeks, and a spokesperson confirmed that Chesapeake is not operating any drilling rigs in the Bakken. Chesapeake disclosed its interests in obtaining a development partner for the Williston back in 2011, but so far no interested parties are coming forward to work with the troubled independent.
The best scenario for Kodiak and GMX here would be a buyout, a scenario for which Chesapeake might also hope, at least for its Williston assets. As leases become tighter and the majors feel more confident in making big bets on shale oil, this is the most likely scenario for at least some lucky players. Kodiak looks very attractive in this context, since it largely avoids the complicated financial deals that discount Chesapeake and is not natural gas exposed like GMX.
Kodiak is currently trading around $9 per share, with a price to book of 2.4 and a forward price to earnings of 9.0. GMX is trading around $1 as it still struggles to recover from its dramatic 2008 slide into penny stock territory, weighted by its natural gas exposure. Exxon Mobil is trading around $91 per share, with a price to book of 2.6 and a forward price to earnings of 10.4. Chesapeake is trading around $20 per share, with a price to book of 0.9 and a forward price to earnings of 11.2. Finally, Halcon Resources is trading around $7 per share, with a price to book of 2.1 and a forward price to earnings of 11.0.
While it can't be denied that Kodiak is volatile, its earnings potential is far above the value placed by investors. What looks like another rough winter for natural gas prices can also benefit Kodiak, as the wary flock to oil heavy stocks. Following its current streak, I think Kodiak should break $10 by the end of this year, and represents a strong buy opportunity.

text: Hi I just joined this list as i am administrating an IBM Blade cluster with a Torque PBS. I have a problem with finding out why my users are not getting the messages that the batch system seems to be sending. Now according to the logs the system sends messages to the correct email addresses formed as username at FQDN . Apparently it never reaches sendmail on the system. Now sendmail and mail have been confirmed to work correctly. The remote possibility that Torque is using tcp to connect to the mail system, just struck my mind, and then the firewall rules might interfere. The firewall rules are designed not to interfere. So if anybody has any idea of how the email messages are transferred from Torque to the local mail system, please share, cause it might help to solve this problem. Similar questions have been asked before on this list and seemingly they have never been answered. http://www.clusterresources.com/pipermail/torqueusers/2004-July/000663.html -- Kindest Regards, Anna Jonna Ármannsdóttir, Unix System Aministration, Computing Services, University of Iceland.

I ignored the email when it arrived. My long-standing obsession with University Challenge was well known to all my friends and an invitation to appear on a Christmas special of "distinguished alumni" had all the hallmarks of a setup. I re-read the email later that evening and Googled the sender. She was the programme's producer. So I again ignored the email. What to do? Put up or shut up? The following day I decided to put up.
The recording took place in Manchester in early December and the Exeter team met for the first time over lunch that day. "I don't really have a plan," said our captain, John O' Farrell, the author and comedy writer. "But I've been sent a copy of the University Challenge Quiz book, so we might as well warm up with a few old questions." Without the buzzer and an opposition, we were surprisingly good.
"It will be a lot of fun," the producer had said earlier. For her, maybe. For an ego-driven bunch of celebs, academics, MPs, people with top jobs – and me – it was deadly serious. The green room was mostly tense and silent, with fraternisation between opposing teams minimal. Still, I seemed to have picked out the right clothes – jeans and a sweater. At least I thought I had, until the proper celebs asked for the dressing-rooms and returned, kitted out in clean shirts, jackets or posh frocks. Out of my depth already.
Jeremy Paxman turned up for a quick chat in the makeup room – he really is quite charming – and then we were walked out into the studio. After minimal introductions we were under way. And it quickly started going tits up. Harry Burns, Scotland's chief medical officer, who had been by far the most diffident member of the Glasgow team in the green room, was red-hot on the buzzer. Every time I knew the answer to a starter question, he knew it a fraction of a second earlier. Before long we were down, by 90 points to 10.
If we carried on like this, we would be annihilated. Time for a change of tactics and to start having a go at questions I wasn't 100% sure of the answer. "Zermatt," I said, guessing a picture question. "No," said Paxman. "Glasgow?" Another starter. How do you spell mozzarella? "M – O – Z – A -," I said.
"No," Paxman interrupted, "Glasgow?" What kind of a moron was I? I knew how to spell mozzarella perfectly well.
Thankfully that was the nadir. We clawed our way back to a final score of 125, but were still beaten by 30 points. "That's a perfectly respectable score, Exeter," Paxman said at the end. Was it? It didn't feel that way. It felt like a disaster.
"And your score of 155 points, Glasgow, means you qualify for the semi-finals as one of the four highest-scoring winners." Cue plenty of faux grumbling from Glasgow about being forced to come back to Manchester the following week. Yeah, right! Everyone in that studio would have killed to come back the following week.
"How did it go?" a friend asked the following day. "Not my finest hour," I had to admit. "I even misspelt mozzarella." "You complete idiot," he laughed. "It's M – O – Z - A -"

A Garden for the Elderly
A Garden for the Elderly
Part of Ep. 1003 Weep No More
Visit the wheelchair accessible garden Polly Rabion created in Whitefish Bay. Created specifically for the wheelchair bound, Polly invites nursing home residents and others to visit.
Premiere date: Jul 24, 2002
- Wisc Gardener Transcript:
So far, we've been focusing on ornamental trees and shrubs. Now, we're in Whitefish Bay to visit a very special perennial garden and a very special gardener. Polly Rabion has been gardening for most of her life. But her most recent garden is perhaps her most memorable. Polly, this is just lovely. Thank you for letting us visit.
Thank you for coming.
Tell me how this special garden got started.
Many years ago, I had a friend who had Multiple Sclerosis. She was in a wheelchair. She lived with her mother a little bit north of here. And her mother had a beautiful garden. But Beth couldn't go in it, because there was not a path. So, I had an idea in the back of my mind that if I ever had a chance, I would create a garden for wheelchair people with a path wide enough for them to view the garden and an area where they could stop and have a snack, or just sit and relax. And that's what happened.
I looked for a house in 1987. And I looked for a house that had a large front lawn, so that I could make the garden more public. I found this house; and I moved in. The front yard was all lawn. I worked with a landscape designer for a whole winter planning out the garden. And in the spring of '88, we began the structural work on the garden, bringing in loads of soil. And then I began to plant mid-summer of 1988 with the help of my son, who was then living at home and getting a landscape degree. So, we planted. That was one of the hottest summers that Milwaukee has had but we planted all summer. And ever since then, I've been taking care of the garden by myself, because my son has moved away.
I enjoy it very, very much. And I contact nursing homes within about a ten-mile radius of my home, and set up a date for them to bring their residents. And so, I have almost 20 nursing homes that come to visit throughout the entire summer. But the season is short. So, we have to cram them in from the middle of June to early September. I think that they enjoy it, because they keep coming back year after year. Some of the design features we have here are plants that are fragrant and plants that have an interesting texture that are growing along the borders so that someone in a wheelchair can reach down and touch them. And I keep the plants quite short, because anyone sitting in a wheelchair only sees at about a height of three and a half feet conveniently, that is.
I try for a lot of color in the garden all summer long, mainly with perennials, but I do put in some annuals. And I hope that everything will turn out. It's color-planned in the sense that I don't have complementary colors clashing. It goes from pinks into blues into yellows and oranges and reds. That color theme repeats itself around the garden.
The structure of the garden had to have a good traffic pattern for wheelchairs. And it's very small. The entire garden is only 75 by 75 feet. So, we created an oval pattern with inlaid bricks that are wide enough to hold a wheelchair passing, and even a person passing next to the wheelchair, if need be. So, I have, probably on the average, about 15 people who come each time to visit the garden. Some of them are in wheelchairs and some of them are ambulatory. And then, there are, of course, the people that come to help them.
And so, I don't give a formal interview. I usually wheel each person around individually and talk a little bit about the plants, and ask them if they've ever had a garden, and things like that. So, I have garden clubs. I have schools, with children, which I like the very most. And I have neighbors and passers-by, strangers. And friends who bring their relatives, or elderly mothers or fathers to visit.
Polly Rabion planted the entire garden and maintains it by herself. By the way, Polly is 73. Isn't this a wonderful gift to the community and to all of us?

Polly Rabion, 75, has been gardening for most of her life, but her most recent garden, started in 1988, was designed specifically for the wheelchair bound and the elderly. Every summer her front yard garden in Whitefish Bay is opened to visitors from nursing homes, elder hostels, and even local schools. The plantings fill her entire yard of about 75 ft2 and consist mainly of perennials, annuals and herbs.
This garden was inspired by personal experience of a friend who had MS but was never able to go into her mother's lovely garden because of the rough path. Polly bought this house, an old farm house built around 1870, with this idea specifically in mind because the house was set back further from the street than newer homes, leaving a wonderful space for a garden. Working with a landscape architect, Polly first did some planning and then did all the planting herself. The paths are brick and wide so wheelchairs can maneuver through the entire garden. Most of the plants do not exceed 31/2 feet in height, so that people in wheelchairs can get right up close and enjoy them.
Polly also tried to select plants and herbs that people can touch and smell, such as lambs ear, lavender, lilies, and sweet woodruff. Her property includes a rock garden, a bog garden, wildflowers and a small two-tiered pond filled with water plants. Even the pond is approachable by wheelchair so people can touch the water. Tables and chairs offer a picnic site for visitors with a view of the garden.
Enabling gardens are barrier-free gardens - often a component of horticultural therapy programs - that incorporate a variety of designs, methods and tools to make gardening possible - or at least easier - for elderly or disabled people. Newer designs attempt to create a garden for people of all abilities.

Polly's Favorite Plants For Scent and Texture
Basil (Oncimum basilicum) is a sun-loving annual with highly aromatic leaves that smell somewhat like cloves. The Herb Society of America has a 2-page fact sheet on basil (PDF). Many varieties are available with different fragrances.
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is a Mediterranean shrub cultivated for its aromatic flowers that bloom from July to September. It grows best in a sunny location in well-drained soil. Lavender is reliable hardy only to zone 5, and is especially susceptible to winter injury when grown in wet, heavy soil. The Ohio State University has a nice compilation of information on lavender.
Lamb's Ears (Stachys byzantina) grows 6 inches tall with furry, oval and produces furry silver stalks of pink flower spikes to about 2 feet high in the spring. Two common varieties are 'Silver Carpet' that rarely produces flower spikes and 'Helene von Stein' that has purple flowers.
Irises (Iris spp.) are a diverse group of plants, many of which have fragrant flowers. The American Iris Society offers all kinds of information about this diverse genus of plants.
Delphinium (Delphinium spp.) is a perennial that likes a sunny growing area and well-drained soil. Hardiness depends on the species. General information on Delphiniums can be found on Perry's Perennial Pages.

Why Do Classical Record Labels Overprice their Wares on the iTunes Store?
There's one thing I don't get about classical record labels and digital sales. Here's an example: The Belcea Quartet's complete Beethoven string quartets, on Zig-Zag Territoires, a French label.
And on Amazon.com:
What's the logic behind that? This is just one example of many. To be fair, this is less common with single discs, but the prices of most box sets are much lower on plastic.

Nov 14, 2012 - The Associated PressThe fate of a tax credit that advocates say is needed to maintain tens of thousands of wind energy jobs will be decided during high-stakes, last-minute negotiations between President Obama and House Republicans over fiscal issues, officials said Tuesday.
Wyoming recently announced plans to develop what probably would be the largest wind-energy project in American at a site south of Interstate 80 near Elk Mountain.
The wind energy production tax credit is due to expire at the end of the year. Its extension stalled in Congress this summer amid fierce opposition from some conservative House Republicans. The last chance to extend the measure is in the budget deal that will be cut between Obama and Republicans in the lame duck session of Congress.
Backers of the credit tried to ramp up pressure to extend the $12 billion break Tuesday with a teleconference featuring several governors, who noted that uncertainty over its fate has led to thousands of job losses across the country. A study by a wind energy group found that 37,000 jobs would be lost if the credit expires.
The credit's supporters say the government has subsidized fossil fuels like oil for more than a century. Opponents argue it distorts the energy marketplace and leads to higher prices.
The credit was first signed by President George H.W. Bush and backed by a number of prominent Republicans. But some conservative House Republicans objected to the extension of the latest form of the credit this summer, arguing it is wasteful spending. Their cause was taken up by the party's presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, who argued the credit should expire. Elimination of the break was written into the GOP party platform in August.
Still, Republicans governors Terry Branstad of Iowa and Sam Brownback of Kansas joined Democratic governors on Tuesday's call urging the credit's extension.

Religious Life Student Organizations
Christian worship involves encountering God and recognizing that we are a community called by God through Christ. In our worship, we offer honor and reverence to God through our prayer, praise and proclamation. We welcome God's words of comfort and challenge and in response to God's love, we offer to each other respect, encouragement and support.
Our spirituality is a measure of our spiritual maturity, which results from our spiritual growth. We grow spiritually as we love God, by serving God and we serve God by loving our neighbor. Here are some ways to both reflect on and practice that love:
Fellowship is defined as, "The condition of sharing similar interests, ideals or experiences, as by reason of profession, religion or nationality. The companionship of individuals in a congenial atmosphere and on equal terms." As children of God, we are connected by the spirit of God in each of us. We are further connected by our faith, our major and our interests, giving rise to fellowship with one another.
The Bible puts it this way: "Faith without works is dead." So we serve others to keep God's spirit vibrant and alive in us.

First Time Cruiser...Not sure I'll be cruising again w NCL
Destination: Hawaii
Embarkation: Honolulu
We boarded the ship in the afternoon around 4pm and embarkation wasn't a problem at all. We reserved an ocean view suite and it was ready for us when we arrived (room 4598), we had 3 rooms all together for our party of 6 people. The room itself was small and the bathroom smaller but it was clean and sufficient for our needs. Throughout the week we had excellent cleaning service provided by Nora.
We tried some of the restaurants (Skyline - twice and Lazy J's) but mostly ate at the Aloha buffet. The food was ok, the Aloha buffet had a great selection of food for breakfast but there were only slight menu changes done for the dinner and lunch offerings. Lazy J's had decent steak and seafood, we ended up paying $30 per person which would have been a great deal if it was on it's own but the steak wasn't up to par with other More mid-level steak places (like a Keg Restaurant).
Our main issue with the ship was the restaurant service. Just to clarify we went into the cruise without any high expectations about the service. We don't expect a server to anticipate our every whim before we ask it but we do expect basic customer service for reasonable requests.
On our second night we ate at the Skyline restaurant. We were served by Tamara and had a party of 5 adults and 1 infant. Throughout the meal we were given signals and comments that Tamara was irritated with us. We would ask for things such as water, salad with the meal, an additional appetizer that resulted in Tamara becoming more ruder with her responses and body language (sighing and rolling her eyes). When she cleared the appetizers she commented that we made a mess with the cutlery (we asked ourselves why is she scolding us). After hearing her snap another irritated response about us making a request for ketchup for our child's fries, the whole party said together that we need to see a manager since her terrible service was ruining our meal. The maitre d' that came to our table was named Sonny. I asked Tamara to also come over and let Sonny and Tamara know that the service was not what we were expecting which was simply to have our requests during dinner done without any negative comments, sighing or rolling of the eyes. After the meal, I spoke with Sonny and the Director who happened to be standing there: Alan Munn. Sonny assured me that we would be taken care of when we dine there but in the end nothing was done and the incident wasn't even acknowledged. I don't know what was worse: the terrible service we had from Tamara on our second night of the cruise or the lack of follow-up from the maitre d' Sonny. Other little things we observed throughout the trip that just weren't right with the restaurant service: we had to ask for a high chair and were sometimes greeted with a "it should be over in the kids section"...implied get it yourself type of response.
We had one great server in the Aloha Lounge named: Aton. He was very friendly and recognized us whenever we ate there in his area. But outstanding service was very limited besides that one server.
We also experienced a black hole for calls to the front desk. We made a call for our room to receive beach towels which were supposed to be there but weren't and also for an iron, both of these things never arrived even though the front desk person said they would have someone bring it up. These were things that we could live without so we didn't follow up but we found it strange that they completely ignored or forgot about the request.
There is a mandatory gratuity of $12 per person per day which adds up over the course of the cruise but more importantly I don't see whether the service level we experienced was worth that amount. When I read other reviews online I also question whether this mandatory gratuity amount contributed to the lack of motivation for the crew to not go the extra mile. Thanks to Nora from house cleaning and Anton from the Aloha Lounge for great service, besides that I would give customer service a failing grade for all the little examples of poor service that add up to an overall bad experience.
We brought our 1 year old son and this was definitely not the cruise for small children. There only appeared to be activities geared more for teenagers and above ages.
The cruise was a great way to see the Hawaiian islands and we still love Hawaii and the people we had the chance to interact with. I'm sorry to say that the Hawaiian hospitality did not make it's way among the cruise staff. In summary, I think that we may try cruising again, we probably wouldn't go with NCL if we do go and we would definitely not recommend going on the same Pride of America cruise again. Less

Manhattan Stuns Iona
Box Score
NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - The Manhattan men's basketball team rallied back from a 17-point deficit with less than eight minutes remaining and used Emmy Andujar's 3-pointer at the buzzer to send the Jaspers off with a 75-72 victory at Iona (13-4, 5-1 MAAC) on Thursday. Jaspers' junior guard George Beamon posted a game-high 21 points, while sophomore forward Rhamel Brown scored 15 of his 17 points in the second half to serve the Gaels their first MAAC loss of the year.
Manhattan (11-7, 4-2 MAAC) experienced its struggles even before the game started as the Jaspers' bus broke down on its way to the game forcing the squad to arrive in true New York City style by way of taxi cabs. Then in the first half, the Gaels gave Manhattan even more problems as they busted the Jaspers zone with superb 3-point shooting. Iona sank nine of its first 11 attempts from downtown and carried a 39-22 advantage at the break. Gaels' sophomore guard Sean Armand and junior guard Kyle Smyth combined for seven of Iona's nine first half treys.
The resilient Jaspers regrouped at intermission and refused to go away in the second half as they climbed an uphill battle against the preseason MAAC favorite. Manhattan went on lockdown in the final 20 minutes against the powerful Iona offense that entered the game ranked second in the nation averaging 85.6 points per game. The Jaspers limited the Gaels to only 33 points and 3-for-12 from 3-point territory, while Manhattan dropped 53 points by shooting 56.3% (18-32) in the stanza.
Trailing 65-48 with 7:58 remaining after Smyth's fourth 3-pointer of the game the Jaspers mounted their comeback charge. Manhattan rallied off 10 straight points anchored by 3-pointers from Beamon and senior guard Kidani Brutus. Brown then made it a seven point game (65-58) with a pair of free-throws at 5:15.
The Jaspers kept within striking distance thanks in part to the superb post play by Brown who recorded his sixth career double-double grabbing 11 boards to go along with his 17 points in 30 minutes off the bench. Brown set the tone for the Jaspers final four minute surge with a pair of blocks on the same possession against MAAC Preseason Player of the Year Mike Glover.
Manhattan held Iona to only three points in the last four minutes and used a 7-0 run to tie the game at 69-69 with 1:53 remaining. Brutus knocked down his third 3-pointer of the contest to begin the run at 3:19. Then after a pair of Andujar free-throws, Jasper sophomore point guard Michael Alvarado swiped a steal in the backcourt from Armand and went in for the game tying lay up.
Glover got to the free-throw line with 32 seconds left and knocked down one of two attempts to put the Gaels ahead 70-69. On the Jaspers next trip down court, Brown bulled his way for an offensive rebound and converted the put back with the foul. He finished off the three point play with eight seconds on the clock to regain a 72-70 advantage.
The Gaels answered back with Lamont Jones' off balance jumper in the paint to tie the ballgame at 72 leaving Manhattan three seconds to work with. The Jaspers pushed the ball to midcourt and drew up the game winning play in a timeout with 1.3 on the clock. Inbounding the ball from midcourt, Alvarado lofted it to Andujar who knocked down the buzzer beating 24-footer off the glass.
Andujar finished with a career-high 17 points to go along with six rebounds and three assists. Iona was led by Glover's 18 points and eight rebounds. Gaels' senior guard Scott Machado dished out 16 assists and posted eight points.
Manhattan looks for its third straight victory on Saturday when the Jaspers host Siena. Tip off is slated for 7 p.m. at Draddy Gymnasium. The contest will be televised nationally on ESPN3.com.

Johnson's Sac Fly Caps Walk-Off Win, 5-4
BINGHAMTON, NY – Kyle Johnson's sac fly in the bottom of the tenth inning plated Cory Vaughn with the game-winning run in the Binghamton Mets' 5-4 win over the Portland Sea Dogs on Thursday night at NYSEG Stadium.
With the game knotted at four in the tenth, Cory Vaughn opened the inning, and put a bow on his first three-hit game of the season, with a double off the right-field wall against reliever Miguel Celestino. Dustin Lawley followed with a walk and Celestino uncorked a wild pitch to push each runner up a bag. Johnson, summoned as a pinch-hitter, lifted a 2-2 pitch deep enough to center to drive in Vaughn for Binghamton's first walk-off win of the season.
For the first time in the series, the B-Mets struck first. Darrell Ceciliani started the first by bouncing a single through the hole on the right side against Portland starter Keith Couch. The speedy centerfielder moved from first to third on a groundout and came home with the game's first run when Brian Burgamy rolled out to third.
Portland struck back to grab the lead in the third against B-Mets starter Greg Peavey. Shannon Wilkerson was plunked with a 1-2 pitch and Mookie Betts lifted a ground-rule to left to put two aboard. Deven Marrero tied the game with a groundout to second and Travis Shaw made it a 2-1 game by pulling an RBI single into right field.
Binghamton's rebuttal came immediately in the third. Wilfredo Tovar singled and put himself in scoring position by stealing second with two outs. The swipe paid off as Matt Reynolds lined an RBI single to right to tie the game.
The Sea Dogs broke the tie with a pair of hits in the fifth. Wilkerson opened the inning by threading a single inside the right-field line. He stole second, took third on a fly out, and came home with the go-ahead run when Marrero lined a single between first and second against a drawn-in infield. Portland doubled their lead on a sac fly by Betts in the seventh.
Couch settled in to quiet the B-Mets offense over his final three innings. He worked around two runs in the fourth, avoided trouble after an error in the fifth and used a double play to erase a threat in the sixth.
Nate Reed inherited a two-run cushion and nearly tossed the lead away in the seventh. Xorge Carrillo pulled a double inside the third base line. Ceciliani brought him home two batters later with a single to the right-field alley. Binghamton put two aboard against Reed, but Brian Burgamy bounced into a double play to end the threat.
Binghamton needed just one pitch from Reed to tie the game in the eighth. Matt Clark blasted his first offering of the inning over the right-field wall for his fifth homer of the season. The B-Mets loaded the bases with three singles against new reliever Jose Valdez later in the inning, but could not break through with the timely hit.
Chasen Bradford (1-0) worked around singles in the ninth and tenth to post two scoreless innings of relief in the win. Celestino (0-1) surrendered the game-winning run and took the loss.
Peavey allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits over a season-best seven innings in the no-decision. Couch was touched for two runs on five hits over six innings and did not factor into the decision.
The B-Mets (10-7) start a three-game series against the Erie SeaWolves at Jerry Uht Park on Friday night at 6:35 PM. RHP Matt Bowman takes the mound for Binghamton against RHP Jeff Ferrell.
POSTGAME NOTES: It was Binghamton's second straight extra-inning game…the B-Mets are 5-0 in series finales…Binghamton went 3-3 on their second home stand of the season…Adam Kolarek and Cody Satterwhite combined to throw a scoreless eighth inning

It did not, perhaps, require the expertise of a cultural anthropologist to elucidate what the Iraqi journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi was trying to say when he threw his shoes at soon to be ex-president Bush during a now infamous Baghdad news conference. Indeed, al-Zaidi (who would seem to have become a popular hero throughout much of the Middle East, with crowds demanding his release) was sufficiently explicit in his accompanying remarks. "This is a farewell kiss, you dog," he yelled (admittedly in Arabic) as he threw the shoes. "This is from the widows, the orphans and those who were killed in Iraq." And indeed it is not entirely clear that he denuded himself of his shoes because they were shoes, rather than because they were the most convenient weapon he had to hand.
Nevertheless, reporters covering the incident were certain that al-Zaidi's gesture was one of deep symbolic significance. "Showing the soles of one's shoes is considered an insult in Arab culture," said the Telegraph. The BBC radio report added that the reference to Bush as a "dog" increased the insult, dogs being considered unclean in Muslim culture (although I suppose it could have been worse: he might have called Dubya a pig). The Guardian had even more to say on the subject:
It was also pregnant with symbolism. In the Arab world, throwing shoes at somebody is considered a serious insult, as is even showing them the soles of one's footwear, as demonstrated by jubilant Iraqis towards the statue of Saddam Hussein as it was toppled in Baghdad during the 2003 invasion.
Who better to explain the deeper layers of significance contained in al-Zaidi's act of incaligation (a word I've invented to mean "shoe-throwing", from the Latin caliga, boot) than CIF's Khaled Diab, himself an Egyptian? Diab informs us that:
While throwing your shoes at someone would be considered insulting in any culture, in the Arab world, the gesture has a special potency: footwear is commonly used to deliver both verbal and physical insult. In Egypt, for example, many popular and colourful insults include the mention of shoes: "You son of a shoe", "You have shoes for brains", "You'll follow me like an old shoe", etc.
Arabic, of course, is a metaphor-laden language, just as English is. Saddam Hussein's description of the 1st Gulf War as "the mother of all battles" has permanently enriched our tongue, and may prove to be his only notable contribution to world culture. But although Diab thinks that the offensiveness of these insults is "largely lost in translation", one doesn't have to look far in English for footwear-based invective. Those wishing Gordon Brown a speedy exit have not infrequently expressed a desire for him to be "booted out" at the next election, if not before. Brewer's reminds me that "to have ones heart in one's boots" is to be "utterly despondent". The exhortation to "lick my boots", meanwhile, would fall easily within the remit of the Cairene expressions that Diab elucidates thus:
The offensive power of shoes probably has something to do with the lowly status of the shoe, which resides, downtrodden with its face in the dirt, all the way at the bottom of the clothing hierarchy. That's why worshippers leave their shoes outside mosques.
I'd always assumed that it was to avoid getting mud on the carpets.
That is probably why hot-blooded working-class Egyptian women sometimes take off their shoes or slippers to hit men who harass them on the street: to show that the man belongs in the gutter and is not worthy of contempt. Bizarrely and inexplicably, slapping someone on the back of the neck and calling them a "nape" ('afa) is also a huge insult.
Because hitting someone on the neck in Britain counts as a compliment.
But throwing shoes isn't something we're used to seeing in European political discourse. More often, in Britain, it's eggs or flour, while on the continent the custard pie-lobbing antics of Belgian activist Georges "le Gloupier" Godin represent perhaps the ne plus ultra of projectile-based protest. Apart from anything else, shoe-throwing is impractical. Unless you bring along a spare pair for the occasion - not something al-Zaidi was in a position to do, needless to say - you're left afterwards without anything to walk home in. Whereas your victim may be able - especially at a time of economic constraint - to sell the things on Ebay and raise some useful cash.
Exploring the matter further, however, one soon discovers that, in Britain at least, throwing shoes at someone isn't an insult at all. On the contrary, it is a gesture of approbation, even of love.
The Oxford Dictionary of English Folklore relates that the custom of attaching shoes to the back of a newlyweds' car "is a specialised form of what was once a widespread practice, that of throwing an old shoe at or after someone to wish them luck." The Encyclopaedia of Superstitions (Ed E and MA Radford) adds the somewhat counterintuitive information that "it is a sign of special good fortune if someone, when throwing, manages to hit one of the pair." The wedding custom of throwing the bridal bouquet, we learn from the same source, is an adaptation of the earlier practice, wherein the bride would remove her shoe and lob it towards the bridesmaids: whoever was hit would be the next to get married, perhaps to the doctor treating her for concussion.
Such customs would seem to require more in the way of explanation than the contrary Arab practice, which strikes me as being fairly self-explanatory. The ODEF suggests that the shoe may symbolise the female sexual organs. That may also explain why shoe-throwing is so insulting in the Middle East, of course, given the general status of women in those parts.
The Radfords for their part take note of an Anglo-Saxon wedding ritual, in which "it was the custom for the father to give one of the bride's shoes to the bridegroom, who would gently tap her on the head with it" and also a passage about oath-taking from the Biblical Book of Ruth which tells how "a man plucked off his shoe and gave it to his neighbour; and this was a testimony to Israel". But they consider that "these decorous ceremonies" do not resemble the violent shoe-throwing at weddings and elsewhere, and suggest a deeper explanation:
Until very recently, shoes were often thrown after ships leaving port, or people beginning a journey or a new enterprise, or taking up new work. By doing this, the throwers conveyed luck to the ship or individual concerned, probably because they were endowing them with a little of their own life-essence or strength.
In which case, the Iraqi journalist's action takes on a completely different significance. For is not George W. Bush shortly "beginning a journey", starting out on a new life after eight years in the White House? Muntadur al-Zaidi may just have been trying to wish him luck.

A fine, erudite post. But it could be that, should you have only the clothes you stand up in and have to act quickly, the shoe is perhaps a more potent missile than, say, a tie or a silk hankie?
If I may ramble off topic like a prematurely senile person, what gives with this POTUS? Shouldn't it be POTUSA, which sounds much nicer and could be mistaken for a type of begonia?

Dubya did well, he has some serious moves probably picked up some tips when he owned the Rangers baseball team, but you do find pilots reflexes tend to be pretty good.
In fact you can do a quick IQ test with a ruler, hold it between someones hand, and see how quick they react to catch it when you release it.

Bush's response was so painfully inept that it reminded everyone why he is not fit to be President.

Passer by, is there a connection between reaction time and IQ? If so slip fielders and goalkeepers should be in MENSA.

Yes there is, but its correlated to simple things, like traffic lights ect.

Marianne Williamson for Congress
Tenth Muse
Tuesday, February 18, 2014 from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM (PST)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
Marianne Williamson, (Author, speaker, and candidate for U.S. House of Representatives from California's Congressional District 33.)
"The biggest threat to our country today is not from armies invading our shores. The biggest threat to our democracy is not bombs falling from the sky over an American city. No, our biggest threat is a pattern of a thousand cuts – the slow but now constant chipping away at our democratic freedoms—one capitulation to moneyed interests at a time, one politically gerrymandered district at a time, one government surveillance program at a time, one limiting of our voting rights at a time, one intimidation of journalists at a time, one Patriot Act at a time, one National Defense Authorization Act at a time, one Trans Pacific Partnership so-called trade deal limiting our sovereignty at a time. So at what point— after how many moments when Americans mutter to ourselves "Ya gotta be kidding me!"—do we stand up to our own government and say, "Hey, guys! Whose side are you on??"
That question will not be answered in a meaningful way until it is asked in the most powerful way. And that means not just from the sidelines and not just from online petitions. The question must be asked more often by people sitting in those seats, in that building, in that city.
And that's why I am running for Congress. I hope you'll join me."
- Marianne Williamson

Disabled American Veterans are in desperate need of van drivers in Gainesville. The job involves driving from Gainesville to the Veterans Hospital in Decatur. Rides leave at 7 a.m. and return around noon. Due to fewer drivers, trips have been reduced to three days a week. Volunteers must have a clean driving record and pass a physical at the Veterans Administration to qualify. For more information, call van coordinator Norman Coursey after 9 a.m. at 678-965-4717.
White County recently received a banner from soldiers in Iraq, thanking residents for their letters and care packages. The banner has been displayed in the main lobby of the White County Courthouse for several months now. White County officials are now removing the banner and sending it to the Veterans Memorial Museum in Huntsville, Ala., which is where the troops were deployed.
Hall County resident Walter Robitaille, retired from the U.S. Navy, will be one of the veterans honored by the Roswell Rotary Club with a trip to Washington, D.C., to see the memorial commemorating the work he and others did in service to our country. This group has raised money to charter a plane and cover the costs of the trip. A luncheon in Washington has also been planned where representatives from the military will be present to speak with the veterans. Robitaille retired from the Navy after serving in World War II, Korea and Vietnam. He turned 81 on Oct. 3 and will celebrate 60 years of marriage to his wife, Nan, in November.

Adam has volunteered in campaign activities since he was seven years old, starting with the primaries for then Senator Barack Obama. He has also volunteered as a Teaching Assistant for Junior Toastmasters International and is also a graduate of the program. Adam received a Certificate of Recognition by California Assembly member Bob Blumenfield (California's 45th Assembly District) recognizing his hard work, dedication and commitment to pursuing higher education at such a young age. His mentor is Congresswoman Karen Bass (California's 37th Congressional District). Adam has also met First Lady Michelle Obama, Senator Barbara Boxer, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Vice Presidential candidate Congressman Paul Ryan, and Congressman Brad Sherman to name a few.
Adam formed KidsSpeak, a non profit organization, so that he can encourage other kids to get involved in public service and the political process. He wants to share with other kids why youth leadership is important.
Adam enjoys baseball, reading, writing, working with KidsSpeak, and hanging out with his family, including his five year old Labradoodle, Cinnamon.
Hi, my name is Carlos Lara. I am currently running for ASO president. I am an 18 year old Hispanic individual that grew up in a low economic environment. I have elevated myself by getting an education and hands on experience. I process a deep ambitious passion for beneficial public service. I have been a student at Los Angeles Mission College for two years now with my being major Biology. I have been involved in educational enriching activities since high school. I have graduated from Los Angeles City Council member Richard Alarcon's program called the "Young Senatorsâ€. I also worked for Richard Alarcon as a city ambassador, where I acquired great political communications skills. I also got involved in the California Highway Patrol explorer program, where I learned to construct my impeccable discipline and personal ethical character. I recently volunteered for the Eric Garcetti' s campaign. I met Los Angeles Mayoral candidate Eric Garcetti in person. Eric supports my determination for being active in politics and making a difference in my underserved community. In addition, I've served as the ASO Parliamentarian under the current presidency of Michael Griggs. I am a cogent communicator that constantly executes my innate ability to analyze and resolve issues through my usage of my negotiation skills. Most importantly, I stand up for what is right because that is my job as a student advocate: to represent my fellow students. I believe that I have the proper skills necessary in being an effective ASO president.

It's that time of year when there are boat and tackle shows all around the country. If you haven't kept an eye on the industry closely, a good sized show can be overwhelming. New boats, motors, tackle, apparel and every kind of accessory you can imagine will be there. I have some advice for visiting the show as a consumer and as an up-and-coming angler looking to advance in the industry.
There are some great things about a show for just about every level of angler. For people looking for or considering buying new boats, it is a great place to meet all the dealers from the area without driving all over the place. You can visit with each of them, check out the latest and greatest boats and motors and start to build a relationship. Be sure to research the boats and motors beforehand so when you get there you will know what to ask and which boats and dealers to check out.
Visiting the show twice is a great idea not only for new boat seekers, but also for anglers wanting to improve their abilities. Most shows are chock full of great speakers, and you can learn a lot from them. I know I have some great memories from shows in the past, listening to guys like KVD, Brauer, the Hibdons, Mark Davis and David Fritts. I was lucky because the Kansas City Boat Show always featured either the reigning Toyota Tundra Bassmaster Angler of the Year or Bassmaster Classic champion every year. This year I am excited to be a featured speaker at the Kansas City show. Many of the things I will be talking about will be things I learned sitting in the same building many years ago.
The one thing I'd like to warn consumers about is trying too many new things at once. I suggest after leaving the show with all the latest and greatest products, put some of them away for a bit. Pick out one or two and get out on the water and really spend some time getting familiar with them. Heading out on to the lake with a boat full of new stuff and trying to figure it all out in a single outing never works well. I've done it, and I am sure some of you have as well. It's an easy trap to fall into because we are all excited about new techniques, new equipment and new bait types, but overloading on new may be detrimental to a recreational angler's fishing. To get really adept with a bait, a technique or anything for that matter, you need to take the time to figure it out and learn the intimate details of it.
Up and coming pros
As an angler who wants to make tournament fishing a career, trade shows offer some great opportunities. While I advise against presenting résumés and asking for sponsorships at the show, it's a great way to meet a lot of people within the industry in one place. It's a great time to check out a company's products and get to know the vision of the company. Understanding a company's product and what they want to do with it is very important. It's nearly impossible to represent a brand or company without knowing, using and liking their product and their people. This is where you can begin that process.
It's also a great opportunity to devote your time to help some companies. I think if you took all of the pros on tour —past and present —we've probably totaled hundreds of thousands of hours working at trade shows. It's hard to imagine how much work is being done to make these trade shows happen. Check with your local boat dealer and see how you can help. I've done everything from delivering the boats to the halls to wiping them down and making them look good on display. By stepping up and helping the exhibitors, you can create relationships that will help you in the future. Obviously, be sure to offer the help before you start actually helping.
The best part about trade show season is that it means fishing season is just around the corner. Many of us have been cooped up in the house or out in a tree stand for months, and getting out there and talking fishing gets us all fired up to get back out on the water. I'll be speaking at several shows this year starting this week in Kansas City. Hope to see you there!

The skeleton was found with an arrowhead embedded in it, suggesting the King died in battle.
How arrowhead found the post in the mad storm he could never have told.
But so had many of the summer visitors and residents of arrowhead Village.
Tell him a gentleman visiting arrowhead Village would like to call and show him some old pieces of money, said to be Roman ones.
You will find arrowhead Village a good deal changed since you left it.
"Just like this," he replied, and stooping over, he picked up an arrowhead under the friend's foot.
You found that arrowhead on the hunting ground of the Shoshonis and the Bannacks.
Dr. Butts was the leading medical practitioner, not only of arrowhead Village, but of all the surrounding region.
I suppose your arrowhead will remain there undiscovered for a thousand years.
Suddenly there appeared at the bedside arrowhead, gaunt and weak, his face swollen, the skin of it broken by the whips of storm.

Struts 2 - The Form Tags
The list of form tags is a subset of Struts UI Tags. These tags help in the rendering of the user interface required for the Struts web applications and can be categorised into three categories. This chapter will take you thorugh all the three types of UI tags:
Simple UI Tags
We have used these tags in our examples already, we will brush them in this chapter. Let us look a simple view page email.jsp with several simple UI tags:
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%> <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"%> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <s:head/> <title>Hello World</title> </head> <body> <s:div>Email Form</s:div> <s:text name="Please fill in the form below:" /> <s:form action="hello" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <s:hidden name="secret" value="abracadabra"/> <s:textfield key="email.from" name="from" /> <s:password key="email.password" name="password" /> <s:textfield key="email.to" name="to" /> <s:textfield key="email.subject" name="subject" /> <s:textarea key="email.body" name="email.body" /> <s:label for="attachment" value="Attachment"/> <s:file name="attachment" accept="text/html,text/plain" /> <s:token /> <s:submit key="submit" /> </s:form> </body> </html>
If you are aware of HTML then all the tags used are very common HTML tags with an additional prefix s: alongwith each tag and different attributes. When we execute the above program, we get the following user interface provided you have setup proper mapping for all the keys used.
Next, we have the s:div and s:text elements. The s:div is used to render a HTML Div element. This is useful for people who do not like to mix HTML and Struts tags together. For those people, they have the choice to use s:div to render a div.
The s:text as shown is used to render a text on the screen.
Next we have the famiilar s:form tag. The s:form tag has an action attribute that determines where to submit the form. Because we have a file upload element in the form, we have to set the enctype to multipart. Otherwise, we can leave this blank.
At the end of the form tag, we have the s:submit tag. This is used to submit the form. When the form is submitted, all the form values are submitted to the the action specified in the s:form tag
Inside the s:form, we have a hidden attribute called secret. This renders a hidden element in the HTML. In our case, the "secret" element has the value "abracadabra". This element is not visible to the end user and is used to carry the state from one view to another.
Next we have the s:label, s:textfield, s:password and s:textarea tags. These are used to render the label, input field, password and the text area respectively. We have seen these in action in the "Struts - Sending Email" example. The important thing to note here is the use of "key" attribute. The "key" attribute is used to fetch the label for these controls from the property file. We have already covered this feature in the Struts2 Localization, internationalization chapter.
Then, we have the s:file tag which renders a input file upload component. This component allows the user to upload files. In this example, we have used the "accept" paramter of the s:file tag to specify which file types are allowed to be uploaded.
Finally we have the s:token tag. The token tag generates an unique token which is used to find out whether a form has been double submitted.
When the form is rendered, a hidden variable is placed as the token value. Let us say, for example that the token is "ABC". When this form is submitted, the Struts Fitler checks the token against the token stored in the session. If it matches, it removes the token from the session. Now, if the form is accidentally resubmitted (either by refreshing or by hitting the browser back button), the form will be resubmitted with "ABC" as the token. In this case, the filter checks the token against the token stored in the session again. But because the token "ABC" has been removed from the session, it will not match and the Struts filter will reject the request.
Group UI Tags
The group UI tags are used to create radio button and the checkbox. Let us look a simple view page HelloWorld.jsp with check box and radio button tags:
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%> <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"%> <html> <head> <title>Hello World</title> <s:head /> </head> <body> <s:form action="hello.action"> <s:radio label="Gender" name="gender" list="{'male','female'}" /> <s:checkboxlist label="Hobbies" name="hobbies" list="{'sports','tv','shopping'}" /> </s:form> </body> </html>
When we execute the above program our output will look similar to the following:
Let us look at the example now. In the first example, we are creating a simple radiobutton with the label "Gender". The name attribute is mandatory for the radiobutton tag, so we specify a name which is "gender". We then supply a list to the gender. The list is populated with the values "male" and "female". Therefore, in the output we get a radiobutton with two values in it.
In the second example, we are creating a checkbox list. This is to gather the user's hobbies. The user can have more than one hobby and therefore we are using the checkbox instead of the radiobutton. The checkbox is populated with the list "sports", "Tv" and "Shopping". This presents the hobbies as a checkbox list.
Select UI Tags
Let us explore the different variations of the Select Tag offered by Struts. Let us look a simple view page HelloWorld.jsp with select tags:
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"%> <%@ taglib prefix="s" uri="/struts-tags"%> <html> <head> <title>Hello World</title> <s:head /> </head> <body> <s:form action="login.action"> <s:select name="username" label="Username" list="{'Mike','John','Smith'}" /> <s:select label="Company Office" name="mySelection" value="%{'America'}" list="%{#{'America':'America'}}"> <s:optgroup label="Asia" list="%{#{'India':'India','China':'China'}}" /> <s:optgroup label="Europe" list="%{#{'UK':'UK','Sweden':'Sweden','Italy':'Italy'}}" /> </s:select> <s:combobox label="My Sign" name="mySign" list="#{'aries':'aries','capricorn':'capricorn'}" headerKey="-1" headerValue="--- Please Select ---" emptyOption="true" value="capricorn" /> <s:doubleselect label="Occupation" name="occupation" list="{'Technical','Other'}" doubleName="occupations2" doubleList="top == 'Technical' ? {'I.T', 'Hardware'} : {'Accounting', 'H.R'}" /> </s:form> </body> </html>
When we execute the above program our output will look similar to the following:
Let us now go through the individual cases, one by one.
First, the select tag renders the HTML select box. In the first example, we are creating a simple select box with name "username" and the label "username". The select box will be populated with a list that contains the names Mike, John and Smith.
In the second example, our company has head offices in America. It also has global offices in Asia and Europe. We want to display the offices in a select box but we want to group the global offices by the name of the continent. This is where the optgroup comes in handy. We use the s:optgroup tag to create a new group. We give the group a label and a separate list.
In the third example, the combobox is used. A combo box is a combination of an input field and a select box. The user can either select a value from the select box in which case the input field is automatically filled in with the value the user has selected. Should the user to enter a value directly then no values from the select box will be selected.
In our example we have the combobox listing the sun signs. The selectbox lists only four entries allowing the user to type in his sun sign if it is not in the list. We also add a header entry to the select box. The headerentry is the one that is displayed at the top of the select box. In our case we want to display "Please Select". If the user does not select anything, then we assume -1 as the value. In some cases, we do not want the user to select an empty value. In those conditions, one would set the "emptyOption" property to false. Finally, in our example we supply "capricorn" as the default value for the combobox.
In the fourth example, we have a double select. A double select is used when you want to display two select boxes. The value selected in the first select box determines what appears in the second select box. In our example the first select box displays "Technical" and "Other". If the user selects Technical, we will display IT and Hardware in the second select box. Otherwise we will display Accounting and HR. This is possible using the "list" and "doubleList" atrributes as shown in the example.
In the above example, we do a comparison to see if the top select box equals Techical. If it does, then we display IT and Hardware. We also need to give a name for the top box ("name='Occupations') and the bottom box (doubleName='occupations2')

Cricket tragics rejoice, others must endure the Tests as best they
Page Tools
It's Ashes season again, and Andrea Goldsmith is mourning the suspension of life as she knows and likes it.
IT IS some ungodly hour, the temperature outside is a single digit, I'm lying in bed, I'm dangerously irritated, and with the space beside me vacant, I'm also freezing. I've shut the bedroom door but a murmer of male voices seeps through, together with intermittent whoops and groans from my partner, who has set up house on the couch in front of the TV.
I've tried reason, I've suggested taping and replays. But against the Ashes, reason is as dust on the wind.
The Ashes: cricket capitalised and coated with tradition. The Ashes: cricket's Mecca, its holy grail. And for those like me who simply don't get it: weeks of sleepless nights, conversation colonised by cricket statistics, and the suspension of life as I have come to know and appreciate it.
No sport has ever much interested me, either as a participant or a spectator. But this doesn't explain my cricket problem given that so many cricket tragics have no interest in any sport other than cricket. In fact, when I find myself sitting at a dining table with assorted writers, artists and academics, it strikes me that cricket attracts thinkers of the non-sporting variety.
To hear them talk! The passion, the strategy, the euphemisms. They could be discussing the fundamental principles of humanity. But they're not, they're discussing cricket. They recite statistics faster and more accurately than they quote their favourite poets. They know the family circumstances of players from Pakistan to Zimbabwe. They lament the dominance of Australia over other cricketing nations with the same seriousness with which they discuss the imbalance of power on the world stage.
These are people who will not interrupt their work for the phone, for food, for a fire alarm blaring alarmingly close, but they'll stop for the cricket. And what's more, they'll stop for five days at a time - or, in the case of an Ashes match, five extremely long nights.
It occurs to me that an appreciation of Test cricket requires the same sort of sensibility common to much artistic work. It is a leisurely sensibility, a patient sensibility.
Cricket is a thinking game in which the past events of a match are continually evaluated as a means of planning the next several moves. This is what I do as a novelist, so why do I remain among cricket's unconverted? Perhaps there's a cricket-readiness stage, like a reading-readiness stage, and I simply missed out.
I am impatient with the game. I want the batting team to hit a swag of fours and sixes; at the same time I want the bowling team to stump and catch and bowl the batters out.
I want to see speeded-up cricket, not the slow-motion game which is its hallmark. It is not surprising then that I do manage to watch an hour or so of the one-day matches, but at the same time I feel a squeezing in my gut over the heightened competitiveness which accompanies the limited-over matches. These are no leisurely games of cricket; they're cut-throat.
And all those courtesies: the dress code, the gentlemanly commentators like Richie Benaud, the umpire holding the bowler's hat and jumper, those polite little signs he makes to indicate that a batsman is out. Yet all the while the players are sledging and swearing and spitting, and generally, although not universally, behaving like louts.
Then there's the connection with nationalism. The nation base of cricket is sacrosanct. It's England v Australia, or Australia v the West Indies. It is a unique occasion when this nationalism is challenged, such as the Asia v the Rest of the World match in the aftermath of the tsunami.
Nationalism, patriotism, love of country are historically tied to aggression. Where there are borders to protect, or a distinct - always exclusionary - way of life to defend, there's an all too ready rush to arms. At the cricket I see the crowds urging Australia on and booing the opposition, I see them wild and frenzied like spectators at the Colosseum, and I see something other than a simple game of cricket.
But even if there were only a simple game of cricket it still would not inspire me. I even lack the stamina for those games my friends play of constructing cricket teams out of famous dead writers and thinkers.
Agatha Christie would be opening bat, guaranteed to last the innings; Rimbaud would replace Elfriede as the maverick but erratic bat; Woolf would replace Warne as a spinner; Baudelaire is a fast bowler; Henry James is the umpire - the only umpire, I would add, knowing James a lot better than cricket. But before the team is halfway complete, I've lost interest.
It's a failing, my not liking cricket. I want to like the game. It is, after all, sport's answer to the novel. Of course if I could get some sleep I might just manage a skerrick of appreciation in service to domestic harmony.

I tried this top on and if fit pretty good, I went up a size (bb dakota usually runs a little small in my opinion). Its a good price too!
Super Cute Ombre cotton C& C T-shirt. Shades of pink that will go perfect with many different types of jeans. Great transitional piece for spring, when it's still too chilly for a tank!

Even though layers of snow and frigid temperatures halt nearly all outdoor recreational activities, the Parks, Recreation and Forestry Board met Tuesday evening to hear updates of from each department and to begin planning for the spring activities season.
According to Bramble Park Zoo Director Dan Miller, the zookeepers have been working on a number of animal projects in January, including placing microchips in some of the new kangaroos, worming primates, treating a penguin for aspergillis and giving birth control to a female black and white ruffed lemur.
Along with spending 28 hours with a consulting veterinarian on site, the zoo is also helping rehabilitate a golden eagle and a bald eagle; if all goes well, the two birds will be released back into the wild.
The zoo has also reached 492 individuals in January through outreach programs and is also finalizing construction plans for the new otter exhibit and children's zoo.
While the Cattail Crossing Golf Course remains closed throughout the winter months, a reduced staff works behind the scenes performing preventive maintenance on everything it can while preparing cutting units for the upcoming season by grinding and sharpening all of their blades.
Among preparing bids for new equipment, staff has also written and adjusted fertilizer and pesticide application programs for the upcoming season.
The Parks, Forestry and Cemetery department is keeping busy maintaining the Maas Ice Arena as well as the three outdoor ice rinks and removing snow from park trails.
When weather cooperates, the forestry crews are able to work on some trimmings, but they are also working on putting up some new paneling at the Derby Downs Clubhouse as well as repainting the floors.
In other business:
• The board moved to approve two bids for the upcoming otter exhibit and children's zoo at the Zoo. The first bid awarded was to Gray Construction to build the children's zoo and otter exhibit for $1,566,400. The second bid was awarded to K&L Mechanical for the replacement of a major water line for $219,578. The total for the two projects comes to $1,784,978; Todd Architects recommended keeping a contingency fund of $200,000 for unforeseen issues. Both the bid and contingency fund fall within budgeted funds for the project.
• The board moved to award a bid to Hurkes Implement Company for a T590 compact track loader for the golf course in the amount of $39,500. The bid came in $5,500 under the $45,000 budget.
• A bid from Watertown Ford was also approved for a new F-250 4x4 truck for the zoo for the price of $22,915. The new truck came in $1,585 under the $24,500 budget. According to Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department Director Terry Jorgenson, the zoo has been asking for this truck for the last 10 years.
• Before adjourning, the board moved to enter into an executive session for 35 minutes. At the end of the session, two motions were made. The first motion was to strike the word "nurseryman" from the job description for a Parks and Forestry Superintendent. All members approved. The second motion was to wave the 5 percent fee towards Hosanna church, which is intending on developing a church at the intersection of 15th Street Northeast and 14th Avenue Northeast.
New religious institutions are required to make a park dedication of 5 percent of their land or a monetary donation in the same amount at the discretion of the board. All members voted against waiving the fee. A second motion was made to request a fee of 5 percent of the total purchase price be made to the city in order to keep their R-1 zoning designation. All members approved.
