First Impressions: 'Starry' Mavs Win At Nugs
There are three ways to consider the All-Star candidacy of Mavs MVP Dirk Nowitzki.
First is that his performance this season renders him simply unworthy of earning an 11th consecutive berth; that is actually the view of Nowitzki himself.
Second is that The UberMan is an icon and a champion and should be "grandfathered'' into the marquee event scheduled for Feb. 26 in Orlando; that is the view of teammate Jason Terry.
And third is my view, as expressed on the Mavs-Nuggets pregame show on Fox Sports Southwest on Wednesday on the eve of the final selection process for Western Conference reserves: That it doesn't matter.
Dissected in order:
First: "Averaging whatever, 15, 16 points, I don't think you should be an All-Star," Dirk Nowitzki says. "But we'll just have to wait and see. I think there is a lot of great young talent in this league that deserves to go."
Dirk is ...er, was ... certainly experiencing a subpar statistical season by his lofty standards. It can be argued that in this wacky condensed season, the numbers represent what Dallas owner Mark Cuban calls "dirty data.'' But Nowitzki's two grand hallmarks are high and efficient scoring and leadership of a terrific team, and as the West coaches contemplate their votes, they may conclude that Dirk's fallen short in both areas.
And yet ...
Dirk scored 25 points against the Nuggets to pass Adrian Dantley for 21st on the NBA's all-time scoring list. He also had nine rebounds and three assists as Dallas busted a three-game losing streak. And even during the team's struggles, The UberMan's personal three-game streak has him at 26.3 points on a dazzling 61.5-percent shooting.
"An All-Star performance,'' Carlisle said of Dirk's Denver effort, "didn't you think?"
Maybe coaches will see the now-healthy Dirk as worthy. But they will likely have not only starters Kevin Durant and Blake Griffin ahead of him, but also the "great young talent'' of Kevin Love and LaMarcus Aldridge there, too. That leaves Nowitzki as a candidate for one of two "wildcard'' spots.
Second: "Some guys are grandfathered in,'' Terry says. "You've seen that throughout the history of the NBA. Guys like Tim Duncan … just because he's a perennial All-Star. Shaq, same thing."
There's another "grandfatherly'' issue here: It would be an NBA oddity for a reigning NBA champion to not have representation on the ensuing season's All-Star team. Now, maybe that would be fitting for the Mavs (an unusual champion in this SuperTeam Era) and maybe that would be fitting for this oddity of a season, too.
But aren't the Mavs build on balance and unselfishness, even with the future Hall-of-Famer as the hub of the wheel? The win at Denver allows 15-11 Dallas to jump from No. 8 to No. 4 in the West, as as pivotal as Dirk was, it wouldn't have happened without Roddy B (all his 13 points in the first half), Shawn Marion (17 points) and Vince Carter (17 more, and a go-to guy throughout.)
"This win was about approach and attitude,'' said Carlisle, who also nodded to the Dallas depth as he praised the work of third-string center Brandan Wright and Kidd replacement Delonte West. Kidd, by the way, plans to practice tommorow. But meanwhile, Jet didn't finish the game due to a hip problem.
Approach. Attitude. "Be Ready.'' Those things are bigger than any one guy. Even this one guy.
Third: The seven reserves for the 2012 Western and Eastern conference squads will be announced Thursday night. I think it's unlikely but possible that in this changing-of-the-forwards season, Dirk might join legends Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan on the outside looking in.
Says Jason Terry: "That would be crazy.''
Says Mike Fisher: That would be great.
There was a time – certainly before 2006, when Dirk led Dallas to an NBA Finals appearance, and maybe since then, too – when Mavs fans, players and Cuban himself craved recognition for roster members. The organization once launched a billboard campaign for Michael Finley and used to make big pushes for guys like Josh Howard. Some of that still goes on, witness Cuban's insistence that the league notice Shawn Marion's work as an All-NBA Defense candidate.
But there would be a great benefit if Dirk is snubbed. Inspiration to prove voters wrong? Nah.
Rest. Productive work. And more rest. Kind of like the last four days which led up to this important victory, Dallas' sharpest of the season.
Nowitzki has nothing to prove but more to accomplish. A weekend in Orlando would only really deter him from his vastly more important goals.
In the Mavs practice gym this week, Terry was chirping about his All-Star plans. He'd like to be invited back into the 3-Point Shootout competition – so much so that he half-jokingly pledged to get an All-Star Weekend tattoo to match the Larry O'Brien Trophy tat on his right biceps. But either way, Jet is going to Orlando, flying on a private plane while working with Reebok.
And I heard him tell Dirk that he'd like to take Nowitzki with him.
"C'mon, Dirk,'' Jet said, yelling out to the last man on the Mavs practice court. "I'm driving.''
Nowitzki laughed and kept working and kept shooting. And that's what I think Dirk Nowitzki should do during All-Star Weekend, too. Laugh off the inconsequential. Keep working. Keep shooting.
That's what's important. As Carlisle said after this win, "He's getting back into the groove offensively and he's looking like his old self as he moves around the court. So lots of positives.''
And if Nowitzki or Terry or Cuban or any Dallas Mavericks fans feel discomfort over the lack of All-Star representation, then can easily comfort themselves by staring at their banner, rubbing their rings and hugging their Larry.

Featured in New England's Historic Homes & Gardens by Kim Knox Beckius and William H. Johnson, the Wentworth-Coolidge Mansion is the former home of the wildly corrupt and scandal-ridden Benning Wentworth, first royal governor of New Hampshire. The forty-room home, which dates back to 1755, overlooks Portsmouth's beautiful Little Harbor. A visit to the sprawling hundred-acre gentleman's farm almost guarantees a spectacular view. In May, lilac bushes imported by Wentworth in the 1750s flourish, mixing their sweet, floral scent with the salty air.
If you don't get your history fix from the Wentworth-Coolidge Mansion, the nearby Strawbery Banke Museum is sure to whet your appetite. The 10-acre site is one of America's oldest continuously occupied neighborhoods, and it offers a look back at Portsmouth over the last four centuries.
Wentworth-Coolidge Mansion
375 Little Harbor Road
Portsmouth, New Hampshire

Portsmouth is one of our favorite cities in all of New England. Full of independent stores and great restaurants, it is a great place to spend a day or two. Refuel after the long day of exploring at a few of our favorite local places:
- Breaking New Grounds is centrally located, making it a great place to grab a specialty coffee and bakery treat. On warm days, be sure to order the gelato.
- Black Trumpet Bistro is the perfect date spot following a day of sightseeing. The intimate dining room and cozy wine bar offer pretty views of the Piscataqua River.
- Portsmouth Gas Light Co. has an extensive menu that's sure to please everyone in your party. Take advantage of the nice weather by sitting on the deck, which often features live music.
This post is part of a larger series celebrating the sites included in our latest title, New England's Historic Homes & Gardens, by Kim Knox Beckius with photography by William H. Johnson.

Morning everyone. Guess what? It's raining at the Rose Bowl. The turf is turgid, with water oozing up through the grass around the covers. The pitch still needs a cut and a roll. And so even when the rain stops it is going to be 90 minutes or so before play can start. Which makes Mike Selvey's match preview look all the more prescient:
"If previous encounters are to be judged, Rod Bransgrove is more atuned to rock'n'roll than the musical, so he may not be familiar with Barbra Streisand and Funny Girl. But, as they put the finishing touches to the Rose Bowl, the ground into which he has poured heart, soul and money, probably in that order, he would be forgiven for singing quietly to himself the words of Fanny Brice in the famous show stopper: "Don't bring around the cloud to rain on my parade."
The dream is coming true for him and Hampshire. A ground that barely existed at the start of the century, carved out of farmland, is now hosting its inaugural Test match. There is a pleasant intimacy to the venue and it deserves supporting. Full, with the sun out, it will provide a fine stage. But this afternoon the cloud descended and a steady drizzle started, an ominous portent to what is to come over the next few days. Already this does not promise to be a game without interruption. Keep singing, Rod."
So in the meantime it's you, me and a whole lot of time to kill. Let the thumb twiddling commence.
Shane Warne is on Sky for the first time this summer, looking truly preposterous. Warne insists that he hasn't had a facelift, insisting that "New Estée Lauder moisturisers for my skin have made a big difference." I don't believe a word of it. And not just because Estée Lauder happens to have a long-running association with Warne's new squeeze Liz Hurley. The man looks like Ming the Merciless after a session on a sunbed. His eyebrows arch upwards at a ludicrously unlikely angle and his skin is stretched tight across his skull.
A glimmer of good news: there will be an inspection at 11.15am.
But beyond the brief window of dry weather that we're about to enter the forecast is, as Dave Adams says, not very good: "Not happy with the weather situation, to say the least - looks pretty ominous until Sunday, though 15 miles down the road in Portsmouth the rain has stopped and there's the tiniest hint of sunshine (which has little bearing on the rose bowl, because the weather is moving west to east). I have tickets for Saturday - taking my seven year-old to his first ever cricket match. I really don't want to spend the day explaining to my son that a) I don't control the weather, b) No, we can't go home early, or c) that the alternative to getting wet at the Rose Bowl while not watching cricket was to spend the day shopping with his mum."
They've just pulled the covers off the pitch and it looks as green as a landlubber's gills after a rough night on the ocean.
"There were dire stories about drought not that long ago," grumbles Thomas Whiteley. "And yet we have lost a lot of time to rain during all three matches in different parts of the country, so what happened?" Yes, it is odd isn't it? But much as I love indulging in a little pseudo-science I'm not going to attempt to give you an answer myself. Let's trust that somewhere out there among the OBO readership there is someone who can give us a proper answer.
I do hope we get some play today, because the conditions look absolutely horrendous for batting. The pitch is green, the atmosphere is thick and the ground is wet. Whoever wins the toss surely has to bowl first.
"I'm with Dave Adams," writes Ellie Hibberd. "My husband and I are taking his granddad to the match on Saturday for his first Test match in years. I equally do not want to have to spend the day trying to convince an 85 year old man that it is a good idea to sit there all day shivering in the drizzle waiting for the cricket to start – and I'm not sure he's going to be up for the 'let's just drink lots of beer instead' option. Dave will obviously have that problem with his seven year old too." More of a whisky drinker is he?
Incidentally have you ever actually tried properly twiddling your thumbs? It is surprisingly difficult to do. Thread your fingers together in front of you - think of the kind of stance that Tony Blair used to adopt when he was at a lectern - then put your thumbs behind them, side by side. Now move your right thumb in a circle clockwise, and at the same time move your left thumb in a circle anti-clockwise. Let me know how you get on.
"With the recent announcement that we now have the opening pair of A. Strauss, OBE and A. Cook, MBE for England," writes Colyn Alcock, "is the the most honoured opening partnership in the history of the team?" Eitherway, when it comes to syllables they've got nothing on their opposite numbers in the Sri Lankan side: Hettige Don Rumesh Lahiru Thirimanne is going to come in for his Test debut today, alongside Nishad Tharanga Paranavitana.
"Why are you rotating one thumb in the opposite direction to the other, instead of just getting them to follow each other round in the same direction?" asks Tim Bradshaw,"It's this kind of over complication that has cost Arsenal so dear over the last few years." I'll forgive you using a football analogy on the OBO, Tim, but you've entirely missed my point. Twiddling your thumbs is not supposed to be easy, if it was there wouldn't be any point doing it.
On Sky Athers, Nasser and Goldenhair are talking about Strauss' batting technique. To be fair to them, they're not being too hysterical about it. But it is slightly bizarre that the English media always feel compelled to pick on one batsman. Last week it was Pietersen, this week it was Strauss. Is there a single member of the top six who hasn't supposedly been out of form and in danger of losing his place at some point in the last 12 months?
"I can't work out if you're very simple or a genius," says Phil Powell. To which I can only reply, if you've got to ask you'll never know. "Simple because thumb twiddling is actually very easy, or a genius because you've just caused literally tens of people across the world sit in front of their computer and simultaneously thumb twiddle."
An expert writes: "Following Thomas Whiteley's comment about losing time to rain during drought, I thought I'd try and claim a penny for my thoughts. It's quite possible for extreme weather to occur (i.e. periods of rain) during a prolonged dry spell. Also, from a sample size of three, one of which was a match in Wales, it's hard to see these inclement conditions as anything other than a bit of random variation." Iain in Edinburgh is now going back to his Ecological stats PhD.
"Jonathan Trott hasn't been out of form has he?" Yes he has Lori McConnachie. There was some hubbub about his having to play for his place in Bangladesh last Spring, after a poor tour to South Africa. He responded with one of the most intolerably unwatchable innings in the modern history of cricket, 64 in four-and-a-half hours in the second Test at Dhaka.
"I these days find myself idly fiddling with my recently acquired wedding ring," Luke Richardson, that's a dangerous habit to get in to. They feel very uncomfortable at first, don't they? Assuming that you, like me, aren't used to wearing rings. "Today's tally of accidental drops, heart stopping rolls away across the office floor and incidents of it being stuck on the wrong finger is at 6 (only 1 heart stopping roll away). Still, at least I didn't leave it at home today." Just don't make the mistake a friend of mine did. A few days after the wedding his wife asked him how the ring felt and he couldn't quite find the right word so he came out with "claustrophobic" .
Good news from the middle - play will start at 12.15pm and lunch will be taken at 1.30pm. Play can stretch on till 7pm tonight.
Just like Shane Warne's skin, the pitch has suddenly changed colour. The grass has come off the top, but Warne still reckons that whoever wins the toss should bowl first.
Josh Robinson has a point here "Has Pietersen actually been in danger of being dropped?" - no, but only because the press and public don't get to make the selection decisions - "I know he's been out of form for a while, and various idiots have talked about his being dropped. But given that replacing an out-of-form KP with an in-form somebody else would make only a very small difference to the quality of the England side in comparison with the change that an in-form KP could bring about, there's hardly any point in dropping him. And I imagine the selectors are perfectly aware of that."
And now a word in a worthwhile cause from our captain, Mike Selvey: "Hi everyone. My daughter Hannah, who is 14, and four of her schoolfriends are undertaking the 3 Peaks Challenge at the end of June, in aid of SANDS, the charity for stillbirth, and neo-natal death. The task involves climbing the highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales (ie Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike, and Snowdon) within 24 hours. They are trying to raise £1500, and at the moment are getting on for halfway there. Anything you could do to help them further would be very gratefully received. You can donate through JustGiving with this link". Three peaks in 24 hours? That's a lot of hard yakka uphill into the wind. But I guess that kind of thing comes naturally to the Selvey family. Dig deep folks.
It's the toss Sanga calls heads, loses, and mouths 'oh bugger' to himself as Strauss announces that England will bowl.
Steve Finn drops out of the England team for Jimmy Anderson.
"I would have bowled as well" says Kumar, a wry grin spreading across his face. Thisara Perera comes in for Farveez Maharoof, and as we all suspected Hettige Don Rumesh Lahiru Thirimanne will make his debut at the top of the order as a replacement for Dilshan.
A wonderfully pointless stat from James Boon: "On the other hand, Strauss has scored more test hundreds than anyone else who hasn't bowled a ball in Test cricket."
How to lose a new wife and alienate your in-laws no2 in an ongoing series: "A friend of mine about a month after his wedding had to do a stock take/audit type thing at work," says B. Deane. "Mindful he might lose his ring in the process, he takes it off, puts it safely in his pocket.Walking home gives all his loose change to Big Issue vendor. Gets on train. Gets home. Brain starts to work. Poor lad spent a few hours pointlessly searching for said vendor."
"Am I right in assuming lunch will be 40 minutes?" No, Neil Withers, you're not. Lunch will be at 1.30pm, sadly rendering the rest of your 500 word rant about the tyranny of corporate lunches, prawn-sandwich eaters and the the evils of Rupert Murdoch entirely redundant. And unpublishable.
Someone help this fella Ryan Dunne out: "Test Cricket is all well and good but, over these long footballess months, I was thinking of picking a County Cricket side to start supporting. Anyone have any advice on how to go about this is? Is there a Glory Hunter's favourite or, conversely, a St.Pauli style trendy neutral's choice? My football team is the Glorious Glasgow Rangers, if that helps."
Ryan, Ryan, Ryan. Where were you born and where do you live? Those are the only ways to pick your team. But for what it is worth all right-thinking people should support Somerset on the grounds that it is the land of sunshine, cider and sixes and that they have never won the Championship title.
Hugh Maguire is one of many confused folk complaining that "Because your left and right hands are near mirror images of each other then a clock-wise right and an anti-clockwise left thumb rotation will be going in the same direction." Now, I can't agree with that. Surely as you look down on your thumbs from above you can figure out that moving one anti-clockwise and the other clockwise they will be going in opposite directions?
"Surely the third option as well as 'Where were you born and where do you live' is who does your Dad support?" points out Richard Moore. "I'm a Northants fan because of my Dad. I was lucky enough to be introduced to them by him in the year Anil Kumble played for them. I thought that I was due to support one of the top teams in the game. How foolish. Apparently my grandfather supported them and never got to see them win the County Championship, I don't think I'm being too pessimistic to suggest that my father and I will have the same fate."
Rod Bransgrove rings a silver bell, Jerusalem rings out over the PA system and the players walk out. We're about to see a small piece of history be made at the Rose Bowl. "My friend^ Neil (a senior civil servant with plenty of time on his hands) has developed a process for denoting sarcasm in emails by suffixing the comment with ^ for sarcastic or -^ for not sarcastic," writes Graham Page. "I think it would be a lovely gesture if you could recommend this to the obo readership-^" What would be the point? Is anything ever published on the OBO that isn't sarcastic? It's our default mode. Sincerity scares us. We're English, after all.
1st over: Sri Lanka (Paranavitana 0, Thirimanne 0)"Here we go lads! Come on fellas!" shouts Matt Prior. James Anderson will bowl the first over of the day. His first ball is full and up on off-stump. Immediately we're reminded what England were missing at Lord's. There's one delivery down the leg side, but otherwise they all whizz through past off-stump and on to Prior. "'Where were you born and where do you live?'" says Charles Courtney. "I'm beginning to fear that the OBO has been an elaborate phishing scheme from the start. Don't tell him your name Dunne."
2nd over: Sri Lanka 3-0 (Paranavitana 0, Thirimanne 2) Broad gets to take the new ball at the other end, and predictably enough he decides that Don Thirimanne's first ball in Test cricket should be a bouncer. The boy can duck though, and the ball shoots over his head to Prior. Another bouncer and Broad then flings down one wide of off stump and another wide of leg stump. Broad stops and paws at the pile of sawdust at the bowling crease, then whangs another delivery down the leg side. And the sixth ball is whipped away top square leg for two runs. Thirimanne has his first runs in Test cricket. It has been a poor first over from Broad.
3rd over: Sri Lanka 4-0 (Paranavitana 1, Thirimanne 2) And Paranvitana pats his first run out to the off. I've just realised that, as Paul Swift says, I "dismissed Neil Withers apparently civil enquiry a bit too readily." He meant that lunch will last 40 minutes didn't he? Not that it would be taken in 40 minutes. So by rights I should reinstate his rant. Oh well. The moment has gone and besides, his email is now lost somewhere in the depths of the discarded in my inbox.
4th over: Sri Lanka 7-0 (Paranavitana 4, Thirimanne 2) There are a whole lot of thumb-twiddling pedants unleashing hell in my inbox. Turns out that thumb twiddling is one of the great British preoccupations, along with tea drinking and talking about the weather. Paranavitana knocks two past short leg and then sneaks an audacious single after dropping the ball down to the leg side, his partner squeezing home just ahead of the throw from the fielder. "When it comes to upsetting your in-laws, losing your ring is for beginners," says Tim Travers. "A few years ago I attended an Easter family get together with my girlfriend at the times very religious parents, who were less than keen on me to put it mildly. The booze flowed freely and just as I seemed to be winning them over. Unfortunately for me some 7 year old relative decided to recount the story of Easter for me, and in my drunken wisdom I decided it'd be an excellent wheeze to correct him & inform him & his sister that Jesus was killed for murdering the Easter Bunny. Needless to say my good work was undone in a puddle of tears & I wasn't invited back for Christmas."
5th over: Sri Lanka 9-0 (Paranavitana 6, Thirimanne 2) Thirimanne is wearing his helmet at an angle which my friend Smyth would feel compelled to describe as 'jaunty'. I didn't know it was possible to do that with a cricket helmet, but hew has proved me wrong. Anderson is making the ball skip and swing, but he's bowling just a touch too wide to tempt Paranavitana into playing. Another sneaky single follows, and again the batsmen just beat the throw. In fact the ball runs on past the stumps so they are able to come back for a second.
REFERRAL! Paranavitana 6 c Prior b Anderson England are utterly convinced that they have their first wicket. But Aleem Dar isn't. Paranavitana was leaning forward, pushing his bat out in front of his pads, and ball just slid past the edge. If it hit anything it was the back pad though. What a brilliant umpire Aleem Dar is. His not out decision stands and Paranavitana bats on. England were absolutely convinced that he was out, and didn't think twice about reviewing it. For what it is worth the Snickometer - which is not part of the UDRS because it takes so long to load - suggests that there was an edge after all. But Hotspot did not agree with it.
6th over: Sri Lanka 10-0 (Paranavitana 6, Thirimanne 3) There was a slightly cryptic comment from Mike Selvey on his piece on the UDRS that "some players are said to be greasing their outside edge to try and beat [Hotspot]". Not something Selve would say lightly, I'm sure.
7th over: Sri Lanka 14-0 (Paranavitana 7, Thirimanne 6) "I'm from Cumbria, not known for its cricketing prowess, so I had the choice of supporting Lancashire like my dad or Yorkshire like my mum," says Lucy Openshaw. "Went for Yorkshire upon threat of being disowned if I didn't."
8th over: Sri Lanka 18-0 (Paranavitana 11, Thirimanne 6) "I felt that Paranavitana was probably not out based only on your noting that Aleem Dar said so," points out Thomas Hopkins. "It seems almost old fashioned to have faith in an official, but I like it. Asad Rauf has better hair than him though." I agree. Not about the hair, but about Dar. There will be a whole lot of pigs flying through a frosty day in hell when he gets a decision wrong. Broad has gone red on the face now, and he gets redder still when Paranavitana cuts him for four past point. Time to get Tremlett on. In fact I think Tremlett should have taken the new ball. Warne thinks Tremlett should have taken the new ball. Atherton thinks that Tremlett should have taken the new ball. Everyone seems to think that Tremlett should have taken the new ball. There's not many things that you could accuse Flower and Strauss of getting wrong, but this is one of them. As Richartd Jones reckons: "Strauss will not help Broad getta betta average by using him to open. Stuart gets chaps out after the opening bowlers have unsettled them. Batsmen think Stuart - a tad slower - will relieve the pressure and then..."
9th over: Sri Lanka 21-0 (Paranavitana 11, Thirimanne 9) Two outswingers from Anderson, and then it's the inswinger, unfurled with a flourish and accompanied by an appreciative sigh as it whistles past the outside edge. Anderson really is a bit of a magician. Thirimanne drives the next ball down the ground for three. "Do you suspect Paranavitana of greasing his outside edge?" No, Ranil Dissanayake, I do not. So I'll quickly correct you when you say that: "Raising that comment directly after his not out decision implies so." But I do find the fact that this is apparently going on quite disturbing. A
10th over: Sri Lanka 21-0 (Paranavitana 11, Thirimanne 9) And here is Tremlett, or as his old county captain Warne calls him "the big goober". Thirimanne steers a steep, rising ball down to point. Tremlett's first over is a maiden. "Weird," muses Mike McCarthy. "I was born in Cumbria, my Dad supports Lancashire and my Mum supports Yorkshire (I've chosen Yorkshire as well). Am I related to Lucy Openshaw?" I just assumed everyone is related to everyone else in Cumbria. But of course that's wrong. I'm thinking of Gloucestershire, aren't I?
11th over: Sri Lanka 21-0 (Paranavitana 11, Thirimanne 9) Thick black clouds are gathering over the Rose Bowl, suggesting it won't be long before the rain returns. Anderson is bowling from around the wicket now, shaping the ball in and then swinging it away from the southpaw's outside edge. Anderson then drops his arm around a little wider and sends a wickedly late inswinger in to Thirimanne's bat.
12th over: Sri Lanka 22-0 (Paranavitana 11, Thirimanne 9) These two have really batted quite well so far this morning, he said in a desperate attempt to jinx one or the other of them. Tremlett finished his over with a lovely ball that swings off middle stump and beats the outside edge. "I'm from Cumbria too," shouts Robin Hazlehurst, "and I assumed we all supported Leicestershire after local hero Paul Nixon went there. The man is living proof that Cumbria should be very proud of its cricketing prowess." I'll be honest the only reason I printed that was so I could link to this, a video which is, to this day, the single
most awful and disturbed and depraved thing about the internet.
WICKET! Thirimanne 10 c Strauss b Anderson (Sri Lanka 22-1) You have to admit it, I'm nothing if not blessed when it comes to jinxing. After an hour of solid, stolid and steadfast resistance, Thirimanne can't help throwing a drive at a wide away-swinger. It snicks off the outside edge and flies straight to Strauss at slip. Sangakkara is in then, with a tricky ten minutes to face before the break.
14th over: Sri Lanka 23-1 (Paranavitana 11, Sangakkara 0) The floodlights are on. And so are the covers. It has started raining at the Rose Bowl and so the umpires have decided to take an early lunch. The forecast isn't all bad though, so don't worry. We should get some more play later on.
Before I take a quick break, Dan Waddell is now the second person who has emailed in to say this, or something like it: "Am I going mad? I saw the replay of the referral and I saw clear smudge on the edge of Paranavitana's bat. What's the 3rd umpire watching it on? A Solavox 12 inch black and white like I had when I was a student? With a coat hanger aerial? There was also a big bloody woody noise on the replay. Put it all together and it was out, clear as day."
Afternoon all. Looks like it's still raining, so we're going to have to wait a while yet before we get any more play. In the meantime, as Steve Busfield says, "While the rain is falling on the Rose Bowl and at Royal Ascot, the horse racing goes on despite the inclement weather. You could join Barry Glendenning and our racing team on Royal Ascot Ladies' Day - Live!"
There were a very strange selection of T20 matches last night, as James Crowder writes: "'I just assumed everyone is related to everyone else in Cumbria. But of course that's wrong. I'm thinking of Gloucestershire, aren't I?' I think you are rather looking back to the days when the entire Grace family batted 1-11 for the mighty Glos. Of course, not so mighty when Riaz takes 5-0 from 7 balls and Mahmood does a Trescothick up top." So yes, in Kent v Gloucs Riaz conceded 13 from his first over, and had to run up three times just to deliver his first ball and then took five wickets in seven balls to finish with figures of 3-0-17-5. But Gloucs still somehow finished up making 166. And then Azhar Mahmood whacked 106 off 57 balls.
Perhaps even more curious was the match between Northants and Warwickshire, where Northants were 32 for 4 after 11 overs, which must be about as bad a performance as there has ever been in the history of the T20 cricket.
Somerset meanwhile, walloped Essex by all of 143 runs, the heaviest defeat in the history of English T20.
Anyway, for the last five minutes Michael Holding has been on glorious form, ranting and raving about the dispute between the WICB and Chris Gayle. He is coming down on Gayle's side, while acknowledging that he is a difficult man to manage. According to Holding "one very important person in the West Indian team" has told the management that it is either "Gayle or him", and has said he will walk away from the side if Gayle is picked again. "And I know who I think is more important to the team," says Holding, "Gayle."
At 2.25pm the covers are still on and Sky are re-running an interview with Robert Croft. So if you've any other business to attend to, now would be a good time to get on with it.
Everyone is raving about this article about two Americans trying to get to grips with cricket. It's over on Grantland.com, which is a new sports site set up by the blessed Bill Simmons - who was doing the 'new' sports journalism before anyone else even realised that the 'new' sports journalism existed. Grantland is supposed to be a home for quality, long form sports journalism, and so it is well worth supporting. If you like that kind of thing you should check out Blizzard which does a similar thing but is even more deserving of your patronage, partly because it doesn't have ESPN behind it, and partly because the people behind it are of this parish. You can even find Smyth there. But I can't talk about this stuff too much because I end up getting cross about the shape of things and the state of things in my own place of work. Moving on then...
The sun is out at the Rose Bowl and the covers are off, so we should start play pretty soon. The umpires will be out for an inspection at 3pm.
Somerset's fan club has gained a new German chapter: "I was looking for a County Team to support myself and followed your advice," says Christian Kraemer. "Being a German I can chose a local time so I will go for Somerset now. Will this have any side effects? Will I have to like T20? Their website looks like it was designed by colour blind umpire so I am slightly afraid what their supporter shirts might look like. GO SOMERSET!" Side effects? You'll probably develop an inexplicable taste for Black Rat scrumpy. The chant, by the way, goes something more like: "SO-MER-SET LA LA LA, SO-MER-SET LA LA LA".
Alternatively you can learn all the words to the Blackbird song by the Wurzels.
Vic Marks has it has his mobile phone ring tone. I believe.
"I wonder if you can play match maker?" Sure, Robert Wickes, so long as I'm listening to the Wurzels all is right with the world. So go ahead: "Well built and cuddly* Westcountry Cricketer of diminishing talent seeks cricket club in central or east London for decent but not necessarily league cricket within 15 minutes or so of his home. Suitors must provide excellent teas and a fine bar or drinking establishment to congregate in after games and be willing to put up with drunken opinions on how the England Team and the game in general should be run and other less important stuff."
*overweight and from some angles fat.
Any takers?
"Oh how I wish I could remember nights that involved the consumption of Black Rat," sighs Lori McConnachie. "What a drink." It's a drink? I always thought it was a disinfectant.
Little known facts about Vic Marks, No2 in an ongoing series. His doorbell plays "I am a cider drinker" by the Wurzels.
"Is that Grantland article really that recommend-worthy?" thunders Paul Keeling. Don't know Paul. Haven't read it. Some of have to, err, work you know. So you tell me: "So a couple of yanks try to understand the India-Pakistan World Cup semi-final and end up finding it slow and boring. And this from a nation which gave us baseball, in which averages of .335 are exciting and steroid-pumped Cubans fail to connect with a big white ball more times than not before having a leisurely jog around a mis-shapen field." Don't knock baseball. It's a beautiful game. Just not as beautiful as cricket. Or Aunt Sally for that matter.
"If Christian Kraemer lives in Hesse, he might like to know that scrumpy is like a particularly bad apfelwein," Bob O'Hara tells me. You've already gone beyond the limits of my German geography knowledge, Bob, but I'll take your word for it. "If he's an Ossie, the Democratic People's Republic of Yorkshire is his best bet. If he's Bavarian, then he should go for Glamorgan, for that sense that they're not really part of the rest of the country, something which the rest of the country often wishes were true too. Actually, that last one could apply to DPRY too."
Getting back to the cricket for a minute here's a marvellous table from Dominic Sayers, showing just how good Aleem Dar is by - and how bad Asoka de Silva and Daryl Harper are - calculating how many of his decisions have been overturned on review.
Unlike your humble OBO writer, David Godman says he "has not had much to do" so he has been studying "the bottom end of of James Boon's wonderful table of Test batsmen who have never bowled and discovered that England's J.C.W. MacBryan is the only player to have never faced a ball as a batsman, never bowled a ball, and never taken a catch in his entire test match career, which in his case comprised fielding for one day in a rain-affected match against South Africa in 1924." Now that is a story worth telling. I'm delighted to note that he was a Somerset player too, and had a fine moustache to boot.
"It's interesting that you should mention Aunt Sally," says Steve Randall. That's very kind of you Steve, but it's not really, is it? Interesting that is. I mean you might find it interesting. And I might find it interesting. But I'm pretty sure that no one else reading does. Nevermind. The rest of you can skip this paragraph. "Where are you from, may I ask?" Steve continues. "I'm from South Oxon and was told by a pub manager who was from the West Country that it was peculiar to that part of England. I've seldom seen it in other parts of the country." Me? I'm from Somerset Old Stick, as you might have spotted. But I've spent a little time in your part of the world, and yes, that is the only part of the country where they play Aunt Sally. Still if you think Aunt Sally is obscure you should try getting a decent game of Bat-and-Trap anywhere outside of south Kent. It can't be done.
Yes, I'm a pub sports bore. Sorry.
Here come the players.
They're going to try and get 53 more overs in today. But I doubt it will happen.
14th over: Sri Lanka 23-1 (Paranavitana 11, Sangakkara 0) Tremlett starts off after lunch, and for some reason all I can think as he runs in is how much more terrifying he would look if he had a big, bristling moustache. It's really time for someone to bring the 'tache back to cricket. As a full time thing, not just for November. Tremlett's first two balls fly by off-stump and then...
WICKET! Paranavitana 11 lbw Tremlett (Sri Lanka 23-2) Paranavitana is flummoxed by a full, swinging delivery from Tremlett, pitched right up on the batsman's boot. He tried to drop his bat on it, but didn't get it down in time. Both the wickets have fallen to full deliveries. England seem to have worked this pitch out, and Sri Lanka could be in for a tough time of it now.
Jayawardene comes to the crease and Strauss sticks a fourth slip in to join the rest, Tremlett's first ball to him spits up off the pitch and thumps into his bottom hand.
15th over: Sri Lanka 24-2 (Sangakkara 1, Jayawardene 0) This is going to be engrossing. Let's hope the rain stays away. The ball is moving in the air and the bounce is uneven, Sri Lanka's two best batsmen are at the crease, both in sore need of some runs, and the series is at stake. And as soon as I have said that, it has started to rain again. Umbrellas sprout up like mushrooms from the stands, and while there are a few cries of "get on with it" from the crowd, the batsmen are desperate to get off. No wonder why. These are horrible conditions to bat in. Jayawardene uses all his nous and experience to pull out of a leg glance at the last minute and dead-bat a full, inswinging delivery from Anderson away to the off. "Glad to hear the fine game of Aunt Sally getting a mention a few moments ago," says Andrew Hudson. "A few summers ago and I spent an afternoon ducking and dodging logs been hurled down the Aunt Sally court (?) in a beer garden in Oxfordshire. You could certainly never call that game a boring spectator sport. Not if you happen to be sat anywhere near the vicinity of a game in progress anyway. A bit like drinking a pint whist being bowled at by Michael Holding I imagine."
16th over: Sri Lanka 29-2 (Sangakkara 2, Jayawardene 3) Sangakkara takes a leg bye and leaves Jayawardene to face the rest of the over. In these conditions that is as good a way to play the bowling as any. The only trouble is that Jayawardene then gives it back to him by whipping three away to mid-wicket. Strauss has six slips in place now - no, really, six slips. And people say he is too defensive as a captain. "I wholeheartedly second your campaign to have more facial hair in cricke," says Guy Hornsby. "Tremlett would indeed be a fearsome beast if sporting a handlebar, but imagine what he'd be like with a full beard? It'd be like some sort of Lillee/Deer Hunter hybrid. Absolutely terrifying. There's a distinct lack of top lip furniture and beards in cricket these days, as I'm sure Keith Flett is currently lamenting. Gone are the 80s, where you could expect Gooch, Lamb, Botham, Smith and Russell to be fighting the good fight. In fact that's over half the team. Glorious. I bet you can't get that on Statsguru."
17th over: Sri Lanka 29-2 (Sangakkara 2, Jayawardene 3) Sangakkara has a strained and stressed look on his face, as though he'd rather be anywhere but where he is, doing anything but what he is doing. Anderson is hanging the ball outside his off-stump, swinging it away from the bat, inviting Sangakkara to drive at it... you know you want to Sanga.
WICKET! Sangakkara 2 c Prior b Anderson (Sri Lanka 29-3) And so it goes. Sangakkara just couldn't help himself, the cherry was so tantalisingly close that he just had to reach out and try to grab it. The ball flew from his outside edge straight through to Matt Prior. That was a terrible shot, and Sangakkara knows it. He was suckered, played like a rube who had stepped straight off the boat. The ball was so wide, there was no need to play at it. He bashes his bat into the ground then stomps off the field, scowling.
18th over: Sri Lanka 29-3 (Jayawardene 3, Samaraweera 0) The batsmen are just desperate for the rain to come now. Jayawardene looks skywards and says a silent prayer, then snaps his head back to ground level and sways away from a bouncer that sails past his helmet. Brilliant cricket this. "There's something heartbreaking about seeing Sanga fail like this," says Dan Lucas. "It's how I imagine I'll feel when Helen gets fired from The Apprentice."
19th over: Sri Lanka 29-3 (Jayawardene 3, Samaraweera 0) Here comes the rain again. Jimmy Anderson spreads out his arms and shrugs at the umpire, as if to say 'you call this rain?' But they're not buying it, and Jayawardene is already sprinting from the field.
Rain stops play then. Bah.
Here's another plug for Hannah Selvey's JustGiving page. She and four friends are doing the 3 Peaks Challenge at the end of June, in aid of SANDS, the charity for stillbirth, and neo-natal death. And I'm a little disappointed at how few of you have managed to dig out a few pennies and pounds so far. Come on folks. Tag your donation with the phrase 'OBO' and I'll pick one of you at random for a special prize plucked from the pile of freebie sports books on my desk and send it out to you tomorrow.
A quick word from Mike Selvey: "That is astounding. Thank you so much everyone."
Well it's still raining in Southampton. And Robert Wickes is still waiting for someone to invite him over for a game of cricket: "Seriously? No takers? I was expecting some kind of IPL bidding war to open up. There must be some barons of industry and media moguls out there willing to acquire my services for their franchise. I don't even want much, just nice teas and beer. Perhaps I undersold myself. I have first class runs and wickets you know. Well, they're first class to me but in reality they are against current internationals against whom I played at under 11s level and retired pros earning a few bob in the Devon/Dorset & Essex leagues."
In the meantime I'll flick over to the other channel and update you on the coverage from Kingston, Jamaica, where India are currently 146-3 off 30 overs in the fifth ODI against the West Indies. India lead the series 3-1. Today West Indies won the toss and chose to field first. Virat Kohli, who is the one young man I've seen in world cricket who I really believe could grow up to be a superstar, is 74 not out and Rohit Sharma is at the other end on 25.
Which leads me on to this: "I noticed that in Vancouver people are rioting for no better reason than their team lost in the final of a hockey game," says Leo Allen. "It made me wonder if a gentleman's sport like cricket had ever lead to riots being caused?" Actually there have almost been too many to relate - the semi-final of the 1996 world cup between India and Sri Lanka was abandoned and forfeited when fans invaded the pitch. But the West Indies is the real home of the cricket riot, with a tradition that runs right back to the 1950s. The last one was in 1999, I think, when the West Indies were playing Australia in a ODI in Bridgetown. Shiv Chanderpaul was run out after colliding with Brendon Julian, fans started throwing bottles and then invaded the pitch.
"Never mind looking for a local league club to play for," writes Ian Burch. "Why doesn't Robert Wickes aim for the stars and send his CV to Worcestershire CCC? They'll no doubt give it a cursory glance and put him in their next 20/20 team."
And an update from the Rose Bowl from Mike Selvey: "Mopping up again here, but there are still showers about. It is pot luck whether one of those hits or slides down the legside. Rather like England's bowling at Lord's."
This match in Kingston is almost as dull as watching the rain drop. I'm switching back over.
There will be an inspection at 5.30pn, so we may get a little more play yet.
Play will start at 6pm and we can go on till 7.30pm. Which will be popular news in the press box, where the assorted hacks always enjoy a late finish that eats into their evenings.
"Miss Selvey's page has topped the aspired-to total!" points out Tom Oxley. And indeed it has, though I notice they've since moved the goalposts. "Nice work. I can only think it's a sedentary desk-based guilt and not generosity which has encouraged such a flood of donations. I am enjoying visualising moths flying out of wallets across desks in the UK." That, and the tantalising promise that one lucky person is going to get a copy of... reaches into bin of books by the side of the cricket desk and grabs the first thing that comes to hand... a copy of Andrew Strauss's Winning The Ashes Down Under: The Captain's Story. Not just any copy either, but one that has actually been touched by my own sweaty fingers.
Sarcasm aside it has been a truly wonderful response by everyone who has donated and, not for the first time, I'm extremely proud to be a part of the OBO community. Thank you all.
OK, I need to stop being sincere before the my icy veneer cracks and you all realise what a softy I am. I've just got time to wipe the tears from my eye before play starts again.
19th over: Sri Lanka 33-3 (Jayawardene 3, Samaraweera 4) Anderson opens the attack, and his first two ball swing wide past Samaraweera's off-stump, but his sixth is swatted to fine leg for four. And here is the young Miss Selvey, she seems considerably less gruff and grumbly than her father, I have to say. Maybe she'll be a little less chipper once she's been up and down all those mountains: "Hi everyone at OBO, Just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has donated to our 3 Peaks Challenge. It's so nice of you all and you made us all very happy! It really is for such a great cause and I know that the charity will use the money well and it will help a lot of people. From Hannah Selvey, Robyn Armstrong, Harriet Lusty, Lydia Watt and Amber Stewart."
20th over: Sri Lanka 33-3 (Jayawardene 3, Samaraweera 4) Strauss has six slips, a gully and a short leg. For once Sir Iron Bottom has nothing to say about his field placings. No doubt he'll find something to moan about soon enough. Oh yes, there he goes. Tremlett is bowling too full, so he says, "it may look pretty, but it's not going to get anyone out." The next ball spits up at the bat handle, and Jayawardene whips away his hand in alarm. It's a maiden.
21st over: Sri Lanka 33-3 (Jayawardene 3, Samaraweera 4) Now it is Samaraweera's turn to wear one on the gloves and wince in pain. The Rose Bowl looks a pretty picture now the sun is out. It really is a lovely ground, a kind of natural amphitheatre, carved out of the hilly countryside.
22nd over: Sri Lanka 37-3 (Jayawardene 3, Samaraweera 6) Samaraweera knocks a single away square, and Tremlett then hammers a ball into Jayawardene's arm guard. An awkward ball to deal with, that one. And that's a jaffa. "Beauty," mutters Athers as though he was seeing Ursula Andress step out of the sea. "Absolutely beauty." And so it was.
23rd over: Sri Lanka 39-3 (Jayawardene 4, Samaraweera 7) If England's bowlers get their lines and length right, the wickets are going to fall in a hurry here. The ball is swinging and spitting off the surface. I can't say whether or not it is intentional, but if it is the staff at the Rose Bowl deserve real credit for preparing a pitch for the first Test at the ground that offers the bowlers something to work with. "Are you sure there's room for six slips and only one gully?" asks Matthew Bell. And to be honest I'm not, because the camera never lingers on the slip cordon. "Doesn't sixth slip end up feeling awfully gully-ish? Admittedly field positions have never been my strong point. But could it be four slips, two fine gullies, and a backward backward point? How will foreigners ever get interested in cricket until we rationalize such things. Maybe the ICC can get busy coming up with a decimal system for cricket terminology. Keep them out of trouble, anyway." At the moment Strauss seems to be back to a more regulation three slips and two gullies.
WICKET! Jayawardene 3 c Prior b Tremlett (Sri Lanka 39-4)There's another one. Jayawardene stays on the back foot and prods at a shortish ball that was moving away from him just a touch, and he succeeds only in edging a catch through behind. What a dismal series he and Sangakkara have had. Prasanna Jayawardene is the new batsman, and Sri Lanka are now well up the creek and in desperate need of a paddle.
25th over: Sri Lanka 39-4 (Samaraweera 7, P Jayawardene 0) We've had word from the Sky box that Athers is more of a Halle Berry man. Make of that what you will. Stuart Broad is in to the attack now. It'll be interesting to see how he bowls in these conditions. We've all seen him pitch it up on off-stump and stay there in the past, but it feels like it has been a while since he bowled that way. He's getting a little swing, but he's also bowling a little too wide to make Samaraweera play.
26th over: Sri Lanka 44-4 (Samaraweera 7, P Jayawardene 0) A horrible ball from Tremlett, disappearing down the leg side. Prior comes across to take it well. The next delivery is a little straighter, but is still sliding down that way. It runs away for four leg byes. But his next delivery is a snorter past the outside edge. When he is bowling like this, I really cannot think of any bowlers in the world who would be more awkward to face. England haven't had a bowler like him since Steve Harmison was in his pomp back in 2004.
27th over: Sri Lanka 50-4 (Samaraweera 11, P Jayawardene 0) Broad's first ball swings one way then back the other after beating the bat. It bamboozles Matt Prior, almost shaving off his eyebrows as it flies by for two byes. Sri Lanka are having a really tough time of it here, and no word of a lie. The next ball bounces up into Samaraweera's ribcage and deflects down to short leg, where Ian Bell takes a catch. England appeal, but there was no bat on it. And it's followed by what is only the second attacking shot of the day, a crisp cover drive off the back foot that has Warne purring "super shot".
28th over: Sri Lanka 54-4 (Samaraweera 11, P Jayawardene 4) Jayawardene drops a delivery just shy of Ian Bell at short leg. And then he decides that he's not going to die wondering, and reaches out to clip a drive over the head of gully for a four. A risky shot that, not dissimilar to the one that did for Sangakkara.
29th over: Sri Lanka 57-4 (Samaraweera 14, P Jayawardene 4) A good ball from Broad, up on off-stump. Samaraweera pats it away uneasily. He slices a bottom edge past the slips later in the over, and sneaks three runs.
30th over: Sri Lanka 62-4 (Samaraweera 18, P Jayawardene 4) Tremlett has figures of 10-5-12-2 so far. The Sri Lankans have managed to score from six of his 60 deliveries. Make that seven, as Samaraweera edges a ball past third slip for four.
31st over: Sri Lanka 66-4 (Samaraweera 19, P Jayawardene 4) Jimmy Anderson is back in to the attack now, and my mind is starting to drift towards the close and what the night will bring. Jayawardene threads a drive through the covers for a couple of runs, then takes four leg byes down to fine leg.
32nd over: Sri Lanka 67-4 (Samaraweera 19, P Jayawardene 6) And Broad has switched ends to replace Tremlett. His first ball is a brute, rearing up at Samaraweera's throat. The next ball is full and straight and slides on pasty the bat.
"A little tip for the Cumbrians trying to decide whether to support Yorkshire or Lancashire," thunders Pat Connelly. "Surely it's fairly straight forward - CHOOSE THE ONE THAT'S ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE PENNINES AS YOU ARE. It's barely excusable that people from Yorkshire decide to support them never mind them ones from the right side of th'ills."
33rd over: Sri Lanka 75-4 (Samaraweera 23, P Jayawardene 6) Samaraweera leans out wide of his off-stump and clatters a drive for four through extra cover. A good shot, but a bold one. Strauss tinkers with his field in response, moving a slip into the covers and dropping back short leg. Samaraweera is just settling in now. Four more leg byes end the over.
34th over: Sri Lanka 75-4 (Samaraweera 23, P Jayawardene 6) "I can think of someone even more awkward than Tremlett" says Sandile Xaso from Johannesburg, and the location may give you a clue as to the answer. "Morne Morkel. He has more pace and extra bounce. Greater control too." More pace, yes, but more bounce and control? I'm not so sure about that. Tremlett has a couple of inches on Morne. Still, it's not a bad call though Sandile.
35th over: Sri Lanka 75-4 (Samaraweera 23, P Jayawardene 6) "On TMS Boycott and Aggers are currently criticising England for bowling poorly," says Ross Moulden. "Saying that they should have got more wickets so far today. I haven't been able to watch much, but from what I saw I got the impression that England had bowled reasonably well, but the Sri Lankans had dug in and were playing it all quite well. Are they being a bit harsh on the bowlers? You can't expect them to bowl them out for 60-odd every time." Agnew? Boycott? Moaning? Surely not. Yes, I'd say they are being harsh. England could have bowled a little fuller and a little straighter, to be sure, but they've hardly been bad. And if it was that easy to do, Agnew would have taken a few more wickets for England.
36th over: Sri Lanka 76-4 (Samaraweera 23, P Jayawardene 6) There are three overs left today. You have to say that Stuart Broad is, once again, conspicuously wicketless. He's been a little unlucky - and he is again here, beating the outside edge for no reward - but still, my mind can't help but turn to Steve Finn. On this pitch I feel sure he would have had a wicket or two by now. We'll never know. "Come now," says Avery Kode - we're on a phenomenal run with names on the OBO at the moment, apart from you, Moulden - "Morkel's a lump of wood, he can only bang it in straight, short of a length (admittedly making the odd batsman fear for his life). At least Tremlett has the ability to show a bit of finesse (swing, not pitching every delivery back of a length)."
37th over: Sri Lanka 76-4 (Samaraweera 23, P Jayawardene 6) A boomerang of an inswinger from Anderson, which Samaraweera punches to extra cover. He finishes his spell with another gem of a ball, beating the outside edge.
38th over: Sri Lanka 81-4 (Samaraweera 24, P Jayawardene 10) The final over of a long day then. "Late night testing in the Human Performance Lab," says Colin Coyle. "One eye on the ObO, the other on the lad on the bike. Can you summarise the days play for me please?" Sure, because it's not like I haven't put enough effort into churning out these thousands of words of delicately crafted prose already is it? I mean, really. Anyway: rain, good toss to win, loose shots, wicket, rain, more loose shots, wicket, rain, wicket, wicket, gritty stand to finish. And that, ladies and gents, is that.
Right, I'll see you all back here bright and early tomorrow. For now, good night.

Hybrid car owners drive their cars more when they aren't commuting to work than those who drive conventional cars, an analysis of insurance records finds.
And despite their cars' often nerdy image, Toyota Prius owners tend to rack up just as many traffic tickets. When hybrid cars get in accidents, the repair costs are an average 13% higher than non-hybrids.
Those are some of the findings in the study by a firm called Quality Planning that pores over data for insurance companies. In this case, it looked at the records on 359,309 vehicles covered by multiple insurers across the country over a two-year period through last December.
It found that even though hybrid owners may be able to save gas, they eat up the savings by driving more on pleasure trips. Their commute habits are about the same as non-hybrid drivers, but they logged up to 25% more on trips not related to their jobs. They drove an average of 10,500 miles a year when not commuting.
"The additional miles driven by hybrid vehicle owners would seem to offset the net ecological benefit of owning a fuel-efficient vehicle," said Raj Bhat, president of Quality Planning. "What we don't know is whether owning a hybrid vehicle encourages people to drive more miles each day or take more pleasure trips."
The profile of a hybrid driver skews to women, typically older, more affluent, and often urban dwellers. Looking just at Toyota Prius hybrid drivers, Quality Planning found that they tend to get more traffic tickets than average -- 0.38 moving violations per 100,000 miles driven, compared with an overall average of 0.23. But that may be because urban drivers tend to get more traffic citations in general.
When model-year 2008 hybrids crashed, they cost more to fix - an average 13% higher.The highest collision costs were for the Toyota Highlander hybrid and the Ford Escape hybrid.
"These findings should be of particular interest to auto insurers. Some currently offer policy discounts on hybrid vehicles. A 25% increase in miles driven or a 30% differential in loss costs is very significant," said Bhat.

You purchased your C36 AMG because its a reputation for strength and European styling appealed to your senses; so why would you settle for second best when it comes to superior quality auto parts? The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other vehicles in today's marketplace. It's not every day that you realize that you have to buy a replacement Thermostats to repair your automobile.
Your car or truck has a liquid-cooled engine, and the device that controls the flow of coolant so that the engine can remain cool is your thermostat. On start-up, the thermostat remains closed; bypassing the flow of coolant through your radiator. This cycles the coolant through the engine block and gets it hot. Once it reaches an optimal operating temperature, your Mercedes-Benz C36 AMG thermostat then opens up and allows the coolant into the radiator. Now your coolant gets cooled as it recirculates through your Mercedes-Benz C36 AMG engine; keeping it within a specific range of temperatures that are ideal for engine performance... all thanks to the thermostat.
Get your C36 AMG back on the road with the highest quality repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. At Car Parts Discount, we have real customer support agents available with enough expertise to help you purchase the correct Mercedes-Benz C36 AMG part for your needs.

Small town Mom hits Fashion Week
If somebody else were writing a story about the fact that I attended an event at Fashion Week in New York City, I suspect that is the headline they would use. I have never been anything even close to a fashionista. I could barely stand reading 'Confessions of a Shopaholic' because I thought the main character was absolutely ridiculous and it would infuriate me every time she bought another outrageously priced scarf despite the fact that she was broke. It's not that I don't appreciate fine clothing and accessories, it's just that I am by nature much too cheap to indulge in any piece of clothing more than $100. ( disclaimer: I would however be willing to pay airfare to Asia, to then shop for inexpensive clothing)
Despite, my unwillingness to purchase high end clothing, I was still really excited to attend the Ports 1961 show at Fashion Week in NYC last week. It was a totally unexpected bonus to our last minute trip to the city. We stayed with my sister and her boyfriend, Dion Roy to celebrate his 30th birthday. My sister managed to get tickets to the Ports show from Bob Bland, designer of Brooklyn Royalty clothing. Thanks Bob!
The first thing we had to do was figure out what to wear to the show. I hadn't brought anything dressy with me, so I opted for a pair of black Mexx dress pants, a silky black and white top and a pair of $60 high heels that I bought the night before. My sister loaned me a vintage purse that belonged to my grandmother and off we went. When we arrived there was a crowd gathered outside the tents at Bryant Park. We walked up the steps past the on-lookers and told security we were headed for the Ports show. Inside there were cameras flashing left, right and center. People were even coming up and taking pictures of my cheap shoes. There were people dressed in everything from jeans to purple feather boas. When it was time to go in, we again were ushered past crowds of people and found our seats. We watched the photographers granted access snap photos of Olivia Palermo, from 'The City' seated a few rows away and facing us from the other side of the runway. Anna Wintour, the alleged inspiration for the Devil Wears Prada, was also present, wearing large dark sunglasses. Her expression didn't change throughout the show and you could not see her eyes, so it was difficult to tell what she thought.
The show itself was short, as models walked the runway to a live band. The clothes were of course beautiful. Afterwards we went backstage and watched people talking with the designer, however we really didn't have much to say so we just wandered around. All and all, it was an experience, I wouldn't miss!

Juniper claims the Mesa 2 is the only IP68-rated Windows tablet on the market, and joins a new category of data collection solutions with greater processing capabilities.With Windows 10, the Mesa 2 Rugged Tablet allows the entire data collection process – from initial planning and data gathering through decision-making – to be conducted on the Mesa 2.Juniper argues this ability gives it a significant advantage over Windows embedded handheld devices, which require data to be uploaded to a computer for analysis. Its quad-core processor makes the Mesa 2 powerful enough to be used in place of a desktop or laptop computer.The Mesa 2 offers an ultra-rugged, military-standards build with an IP68 rating for dust and water, along with the ability to operate in extreme temperatures. It also provides a large, 7-inch display, giving users ample viewing area while remaining compact and lightweight. Its superior ergonomic design reduces its perceived weight, maximising comfort and minimising fatigue during all-day use, according to Juniper.The Mesa 2's other attributes include up to 15 hours of battery life, an extra-bright, IllumiView display for excellent outdoor visibility, and productivity-boosting features like GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular, a 1D/2D barcode reader, and RFID.'The Mesa 2 rugged tablet opens new opportunities for users with its additional processing power and software versatility', said Simon Bowe, general manager at Juniper Systems. 'Users can perform tasks on this tablet that previously could only be done on an office desktop computer. The Mesa 2 takes analysis and decision-making capabilities into the field for immediate action.'Juniper Systems is now shipping the Standard, Geo, and Geo Cell models, with additional Mesa 2 configurations coming soon. The company is based out of Logan, UT, USA, and Birmingham in the UK.James Atkinson EditorLinkedIn |Google + |Email Leave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...
