Michigan Family Law Appeals
Appeals in family law are complicated, and at Family Law of Michigan, our Detroit family law lawyers work with Cheryl Fletcher, who is a specialist in family law appeals. Every situation is different, with most appeals being filed after a trial or hearing by the litigant who is unhappy with the result. Family law appeals can be very complicated, and it is important that they be considered on a case by case basis. The appeal process can take anywhere from nine months to a year, and consists of ordering a transcript, writing briefs, often having oral arguments at the Court of Appeals, and then waiting for a decision. Our Michigan family law attorneys are happy to advise you as to whether your case merits an appeal.

Northern Spring Peeper
Pseudacris crucifer
Among the first true signs of spring in Maryland is the cacophonous sound of the tiny, thumb-nail sized Chorus Frogs, known as Spring Peepers. Along with the return of the Osprey and the departure of Canada Geese, the Spring Peeper is a strong indicator of warmer days to come. The loud, peeping chorus of Spring Peepers means winter is finally coming to an end. These little frogs are among the very first to call and breed in the spring. The call is very important during the breeding season, as the female will choose a mate by the quality of its call.
The Spring Peeper, though nocturnal, is one of the most familiar frogs in the East. Like many of the Chorus Frogs, the Spring Peeper is often heard, but not seen. It gets its name from its call, which consists of a single clear note or peep, occurring once a second. Only the males sing, calling from shrubs and trees standing in or overhanging water.
The faster and louder a male sings, the more likely he is to attract a mate. A male peeper may also give a lower-pitched trilled whistle, usually when another male has moved too close to its calling site. During the daytime, peepers often call during light rains or in cloudy weather.
The intensity of calling increases and can become a deafening chorus during humid evenings or just after a warm spring rain when many males congregate. The resulting chorus sounds of many peepers calling together sounds a bit like jingle bells. In fact the residents of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, call these creatures Pinkletinks.
The Spring Peeper, like other Chorus Frogs, is a small animal attaining an adult length of only a little over an inch long. A characteristic of the Spring Peeper is the dorsal marks that form an X on the back. It usually isn't a perfect X, but some form of it. Their Latin name, Pseudacris crucifer, was chosen because "crucifer" in Latin means "cross bearing."
Pseudacris crucifer has moderately webbed feet and noticeable disks on its fingers and toes. Like all treefrogs, peeper toepads are sticky and round, useful for climbing trees and other plants. It also has dark bands on its legs and a dark bar between its eyes. The general coloration is a variation of brown, gray, or green. This frog has some color-changing ability and can darken or lighten, depending on its mood or the surroundings.
Because they breed in permanent or temporary fresh water, pools are a habitat requirement. This frog is found in fishless, temporary wetlands associated with forested habitat like marshy woods, non-wooded lowlands, or near ponds and swamps. Although it is a good climber, spring peepers seem to prefer to be on the ground or hiding in leaf litter.
The breeding period is from February -June, when the female lays 200 to 1,200 eggs. Peepers do not lay eggs in strands or clumps. Unlike all other MD frogs, they lay their eggs singly, attached to submerged aquatic vegetation. After the breeding season, they move into woodlands, old fields or shrubby areas.
Depending on the temperatures, eggs may hatch within two to four days or may take up to two weeks during cooler periods. The newly hatched tadpoles become late tadpoles by early July. When they become tadpoles, they breathe with gills and swim using a tail. Peeper tadpoles are bigger than the adult peepers. As they mature, they lose their tail, and they develop lungs for breathing air. Transformation occurs within eight weeks when the young tadpoles are fully transformed into young frogs and leave the pond.
By the end of the summer, they have reached the adult size of about 1 - 1 1/2 inches. Maturity is reached within one year. As the days cool, the peepers dig into the soft mud near ponds for the winter. During the winter, peepers go into a type of partly-frozen hibernation, and they re-emerge when the weather warms.
Quick Facts:
- Length: ¾ in. to 1 ¼ in. (record 1 ½ in.)
- Weight:
3 to 5 g. (0.11 to 0.18 oz.)
- Calls: Short, loud, high-pitched peep. Many individuals singing together sound like sleigh bells.
- Sounds like: spring peeper call (348k) - spring peeper chorus(106k)
- Eats: The spring Peeper eats mainly small insects including ants, beetles, flies, and spiders. They catch them with their long, sticky tongue.
- Identifying: Although their voice is loud, they are difficult to see. Their coloring of grays to browns, makes for perfect camouflage. The large, dark "X" on their back is a great way to identify them.
- Subspecies: The Southern Spring Peeper is virtually identical to the Northern species, except for the belly, which has strong, dark markings on it. The belly of the N. Spring Peeper is visually plain.
- What to look for: Spring Peepers have large "vocal sacs" under their chins. They pump these sacs full of air until they look like a full balloon, then let out a mighty "peep" while discharging the air. The easiest way to see calling Peepers is to look for their shiny vocal sacs, which look like 25-cent pieces, inflating and deflating as they call.
- Where to find: They are considered a tree frog, but don't usually climb too high off the ground, clinging about a 30 - 40 inches up on trees using their adhesive toe pads.

Did You Know?
A spring pond full of peeping Peepers can sound like sleigh bells jingling -- only louder.
Their Latin name, Pseudacris crucifer, was chosen due for the cross, or 'crucifix' located on the back of this species.
The spring peeper produces glucose, or sugar, and "freezes" itself for the winter. In winter, peepers' bodies freeze--but their cells don't rupture because of the concentrated sugars in them. These sugars act as a kind of natural anti-freeze.
Their toes have large, sticky pads which help them to cling to tree trunks and climb them quickly.
Spring Peepers have one of the largest vocal-sac-to-body ratio of any of the frog species in Maryland. The vocal sac is almost the same size as the peepers body size.
The residents of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, call these creatures Pinkletinks.
With the possible exception of the bullfrog, the spring peeper is the most popular frog in Maryland.

text: Healthy Living Stephanie Chanel June 18, 2012 Fitness & Health A few months ago, I wrote about getting fit. I have probably gained ten pounds since then. That being said, I have made a mid-year resolution to stop being so full of crap. Just kidding. A little. I made a decision to be more healthy and get to the gym when I have time. Now, I know those goals sound very blase, but I am taking it a bit more seriously than it sounds. For instance, this week, when I went grocery shopping, I bought whole grain carbs, more veggies and fruits (with no sugar added, of course, if it was packaged) and snacks that contained large amounts of fiber. I also have made the decision that I will no longer eat red meat. No pork, no beef, only chicken breast, fish and some turkey. All in all, I will say that the small changes aren't that bad. They taste a little better than the normal ones. And I'm not even in denial. I promise. So, I think I figured out why I am doing so well this time around. And here are a list of reasons why it is easier for me to take the healthier route. I am living on my own. I don't give myself too much temptation, because I am the only one that I have to buy food for. Although my younger brother is staying with me for a little while, I put his junk food in his own cabinet and I never see it unless he's eating it. I bought things that I ate before, just healthier versions. I love, love, love pasta. And I will be damned if I cut that out. Especially since I'm trying to make this a lifestyle change and not a quick fix diet. And you would be surprised what brands have healthier versions available. Like Mac 'N' Cheese. They have a whole grain version! Whodathunkit? I cut out all bad sweets like my favorite candy, peanut M&Ms. But, if I have a really strong craving, I indulge a little bit. Which brings me to portion control. I have had a problem with this only because I love food and I am very bad at figuring out when I am full sometimes. So, I have been practicing small portion sizes and drinking a bottle of water per meal and snack to fill out the rest. I drink tons of water, so, I normally don't want to drink anything else. But if I do, Minute Maid makes this 15 calorie juice that I love! And it's only a dollar. And it doesn't taste like watered down barf, either. It tastes great. I bought a water filter. Price and money have always been a huge reason why I say I don't eat healthier than I do, so, saving money is the main goal and eating as healthy as possible. This way, I can drink as much water as I want and not have to worry about how much money I'm spending on water. I bought a whole grain cereal. I have an 8 o'clock class every single morning, and I don't get back home until 1pm. Then, I normally have work at 1:30. So, I can't find time to breathe, let alone eat a full breakfast. So, I bought the quickest most fulfilling thing that I could eat in the morning: cereal! Paired with skim milk, I'm only eating 150 calories, and I won't hear my stomach growling in class or order unhealthy food with my coworkers at work. I log everything in an app by Fat Secret called the Calorie Counter. It helps me keep track of what I ate and sometimes, the calories don't matter, but when you start forgetting what you eat, you're in the danger zone, and you need to do something about it immediately. I bought healthy snacks. I know I said this earlier, but let me expand. I am a munch-er. I think I am obsessed with the sensation of food in my mouth. I no longer feel pressured. I eat what I want, but I have a bit more structure to my food intake than I did before. But I feel more like I'm making better choices, not like I'm on a diet. So far, these are the few small changes that I have been making to shrink my waistband size and a few things that have helped me along the way. Let me know if you have any advice or questions on healthy eating and living. Remember, small changes make all the difference.

There are times where all you do is look forward to the weekends and then when they get here they just don't live up to the hype. I just wasn't in the best mood to enjoy the weekend. But when that happens, I find myself cooking and baking more. I feel the creativity pushes out the negative energy. And it makes a lot of people happy.
So today is National Chocolate Ice Cream Day so there is no better time for me to share the mad ice cream making that has taken place in the past few days.
It started with all the sorbets that I've been trying. Since they went over so well, I decided to make chocolate ice cream. There are are very few things that are better than a really good chocolate ice cream. And it can drown the sorrows that Mondays bring.
Worth it...
Let's hope my ice cream maker holds up.
Chocolate Ice Cream
2 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
4 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
8 oz bittersweet chocolate chopped
Heat on medium the milk and cream together in a saucepan. In a separate bowl whisk eggs and sugar. When milk is hot but not boiling take off the burner and pour into the eggs in a small stream to bring the temperature of the eggs up but gradually so you don't scramble them. I like to use a ladle to pour the milk in so you can control it better.
Return the mixture into the saucepan and heat until it thickens and mixture can coat the back of a spoon. Take off the burner and mix in the bittersweet chocolate. Mix until it melts. Place in a bowl and chill completely. Once chilled freeze in your ice cream maker according to the instructions.

TrueCar boosts 2015 U.S. sales forecast to 17.4M from 17.2M
TrueCar (TRUE) raised its 2015 annual forecast by 200,000 units to 17.4 million as sales growth in the remaining months of 2015 is poised to remain vigorous. New auto sales in September, aided by a later-than-usual Labor Day, should expand by 12.6 percent from a year ago, while the Seasonally Adjusted Annual Rate should reach 17.7 million units. That strength underpins TrueCar's revised full-year industry forecast of 17.4 million units, the highest volume since 2000. Retail share of the total industry likely expanded a full point in September versus last year, indicating busier-than-average showrooms. Confident consumers are expected to push new vehicle revenue to a record $45 billion for the month, up 13.2 percent versus the same period last year. Publicly traded companies in the space include Fiat Chrysler (FCAU), Ford (F), General Motors (GM), Honda (HMC), Nissan (NSANY), Toyota (TM), Daimler (DDAIF) and Volkswagen (VLKAY). TrueCar EVP Larry Dominique commented, "Volkswagen's stop sell of diesel vehicles in the U.S. causes a noticeable hit to its September revenue, with a 7.7 percent decline. We expect sales to dip by at least by 5 percent and incentives to increase by $235 per unit, which will be essential to push non-impacted models off the lots."

UB40: One in a million
This month finds Birmingham, UK-based reggae supergroup UB40 celebrating the 30th anniversary of their seminal debut LP 'Signing Off' with a 'Collector's Edition' double-CD re-release. Which - in addition to the original album remastered - also includes all the various dub mixes and B-sides, alongside a DVD featuring previously-unreleased Rock Goes To College film footage.
With its cover artwork famously depicting a replica of the bright yellow unemployment card from which the band took its name - Unemployment Benefit Form 40 - 'Signing Off' (the title itself also a reference to said unemployment form) was heralded as a landmark album upon its original August 1980 release. Considered by many as one of the greatest reggae albums ever released by a British band, its mix of reggae and dub struck a significant chord amongst a large portion of the UK's then-disaffected youth. As, chronicling the times in which it was created, its lyrics addressed the plight of communities throughout the UK during the early Thatcher years, as well as wider social and political issues of the day.
Indeed, with 'Signing Off' going on to attain Platinum status while spending 71 weeks on the British charts where it peaked at Number Two (spawning classic Top 10 singles like 'Food For Thought' and 'I Think It's Going to Rain Today' along the way), the album significantly marked the launch of a trailblazing career that has seen UB40 become one of the most successful reggae groups of all time - boasting over 40 UK Top 40 singles; two US Number Ones (1983's 'Red Red Wine'; 1993's 'Falling In Love With You') and overall .
Meanwhile, with the re-release of 'Signing Off' currently being accompanied by an extensive tour of intimate venues across the UK (where, in addition to performing the album in its entirety, the group will perform a second set each evening featuring some of their other, much-loved tracks) UB40's highly-talkative saxophonist - and founding member - Brian Travers calls up 'Blues & Soul' Assistant Editor Pete Lewis for a revealing and highly-interesting 30-minute chat.
The group's ideas on this month's re-release of 'Signing Off' as a '30th Anniversary Special Edition' double-CD
"It wasn't really our idea. But I think right now - with the music industry in such dire straits that they can barely sell ANYTHING - the labels are basically looking for any angle to hang something ONTO. And, with it being the 30th anniversary of I guess one of our seminal albums, EMI decided they wanted to re-release 'Signing Off'... And though, as a musician, you'd always prefer to be getting into something new, we didn't actually have too many objections. Because, with a tour being tied in around it, the re-release has given us the opportunity to do something we've never done BEFORE. Which is to play an album in its entirety, then go off for 15 minutes - before coming back onstage to play a SECOND set, comprising our hits in addition to more modern, contemporary stuff. All of which definitely appealed to us."
How UB40 feel about performing at more intimate venues during their current, extensive UK tour based around the album's re-release
"The idea of taking the album back to much the same venues we'd played it in the FIRST time around really appealed to us. Because for decades now we've been playing arenas and stadiums where you leave your hotel; get on the tour bus; the tour bus goes into the backstage of the arena... And the only people you ever see are the people you're WORKING with - apart from the occasional few that come backstage to say 'hello', who've found out how to manoeuvre their way through the walls of security... Whereas the gigs we actually love playing the best are the ones with a chip-shop next-door or a bus-stop outside! Because the people coming to those gigs tend to KNOW each other more, or they may have travelled on the bus together, they may be from the same town… As opposed to when you play those out-of-town arenas, where people just come from everywhere in pairs and you just don't GET those big groups of friends. You know, it's a different vibe altogether."
The social and political climate that UB40, and their debut album, was born out of
"We were basically just a bunch of lads who hung out together! You know, we'd all started secondary school together when we were 11, we'd knock about together after school… And, because we lived in the middle of downtown Birmingham, of course we felt the waves of immigration before MOST people did. In that there were lots of West Indian and Asian people in our neighbourhood. And, because in the Seventies there was no black television or Asian television, to these people - who were our neighbours and friends - music was incredibly IMPORTANT! To the point where you even dressed like your album sleeves! So through school all our ambitions were really pointed towards becoming musicians. And so, by the time we left at 16 and found ourselves on the dole, being a musician wasn't like the impossible, far-off dream that we'd once THOUGHT it was! I mean, we'd never had music classes and so we weren't what you'd call 'proper musicians'. But then what we started doing was playing records and spending our time COYPING them - until we could play them note-for-note! And what we discovered from that was that we all had an ear for flat and sharp, and we could hear TONES! So, once we started realising we actually could DO this, from there we wrote our first songs that we could perform at gigs - and so 'Signing Off' was literally our first collection of songs that we could PLAY!"
Brian's thoughts on UB40 as a political band, and political music in general
"When UB40 started out it was very much a political age. The National Front were marching on the street; we came from a hugely multi-racial area of Birmingham; we were a multi-racial band; our friends and neighbours were from all over the world… So yeah, we were very active against The National Front, against fascism... You know, we were part of The Anti-Nazi League and played a lot of Rock Against Racism gigs - which were an incredible outlet back in those days, because you were speaking to like-minded people. And I think that, in turn, gave us the opportunity to be a little more political with our music - something I do feel is missing a little bit from music now. In that these kids today do seem a little more interested in fame than content, when what they need to realise is that, if they get the content right, the fame just looks after ITSELF. I mean, there's a lot people these days peaking at 18, whereas, for example, Bob Marley's first four albums - though beautiful pieces of music - were FLOPS! And the same could be said for a lotta great SOUL artists back then, who took years to get a hit… So yeah, to me a lot of the feeling and the human-ness in music has been lost with the POLITICS being lost."
How he recalls the actual recording sessions for 'Signing Off'
"The album's producer - Bob Lamb - had been a drummer in a band called The Steve Gibbons Band, who did like real authentic rock & roll. You know, he'd never made it, he was struggling… But - because we couldn't afford a studio and he was the only guy we knew who knew how to record music - we did the album in his bed-sit! I remember he had his bed on stilts. So underneath the bed was a sofa and mixing desk. And so we recorded the album there on an eight-track machine, with the same 50p coin going through the electric meter continually because we'd booted the lock off it! And, with it being a bedsit and us being eight in the band, we'd record the saxophone in the kitchen - because there was a bit or resonance off the walls, a bit of reverb - before putting the machine effects on it. While the percussion - the tambourines, the congas, the drums - we'd do in the back yard! Which is why you can hear birds singing on some of the tracks! You know, because it was in the daytime we'd be shouting across the fences 'Keep it DOWN! We're RECORDING!'... And what's funny is we've actually taken lots of little bird samples on this tour WITH us - to play during some of the songs, just to remind people of that!"
Brian's thoughts on UB40's former frontman, and fellow founder member, Ali Campbell - who obviously played a massive roll in 'Signing Off' - no longer being with the band, having left acrimoniously in January 2008
"The split is only acrimonious from Ali's side - I have to say that. You know, Ali had a problem about money. He wanted more money and basically said 'I'm going solo so I'll make l0 times as much money without you guys'… Which killed us ALL! Because his brother (Robin Campbell) is still in the band, plus we all grew up together… So, as I say, it killed us all that he would ever GET like that. But that's the truth - and that's IT! He left, his other brother - Duncan - joined and took over lead vocals, and we've carried on ever SINCE. We've toured the US a couple of times, toured Europe, done a couple of arena tours; we're about to go back to The States, to Australia… And, while it was emotional at the time, we still do wish Ali the best of luck - even though the fact he still doesn't talk to his brothers, or ANY of us, is incredibly sad... But hey, people change but life goes on - and you just have to get ON with stuff… Which we ARE doing!"
How Brian feels about Duncan Campbell now replacing his brother Ali Campbell as UB40's lead singer
"Duncan coming in and being new to the group shook us all up a little bit - in terms of how much work he's prepared to do, how many hours he's prepared to put in... Which has in turn improved the tightness of the band, the harmony side of things... And so in that way it's been a great thing. Plus, while Duncan was singing in pubs and bars as a folk singer for years, he hasn't been doing it INTENSELY for 30 years! Which means his voice is very clear and very clean, his chords are good, his pitch is great… And more than anything, he's ENTHUSIASTIC! You know, after singing songs in pubs and bars for years, he can't believe he now actually goes round the WORLD doing it! I mean, we have fantastic meals, good laughs... Because you have to remember, Duncan went to school with us TOO! So he didn't just JOIN the band, we WANTED him! Plus, with him being Robin's brother, their tones match so well, their harmony singing is so nice... So yeah, while there's nothing good to say about the whole Ali situation, we're basically just getting ON with it, Pete, to be honest."
UB40's 'Signing Off' UK tour runs from now up to November 19, taking in such venues as Glasgow Royal Concert Hall; Manchester Bridgewater Hall; Cardiff St David's; and Southampton Guildhall
The album 'Signing Off: Collector's Edition' is out now through Virgin/EMI Records

Film is the "trick" for filmmakers who are tasked with "treating" audiences to the spooky, supernatural world of vampires, zombies and ghosts! From big screen scares to TV terror, film is the medium that creatives are choosing to bring chilling, bloodcurdling stories to "real" life.
FX's American Horror Story is this year's most Emmy®-nominated program. The third installment, AHS: Coven, is being shot on Kodak film by Michael Goi, ASC on locations in New Orleans. "Shooting with film gives me the freedom to move really quickly with the cameras, unencumbered by trails of cables and the technical stuff that can slow the process down," he says. "Film also allows me to really push the envelope in terms of how dark I want to go, knowing that there is always a lot more detail on the negative." Watch Michael and director/co-executive producer breakdown the look for AHS: Coven in this video.
The Walking Dead, which is shot on Super 16, returned for its fourth season in October, delivering the highest ratings of any episode in the series' history. "We wanted a 'film look' (for The Walking Dead) as opposed to something that looked like tape that was super sharp," said Gale Anne Hurd, executive producer. "It didn't feel as real. There is also inherent grain in film, which works. You want this to feel gritty and real as opposed to shiny and surreal. In addition to that, you get a much truer representation of the color palette than you do with HD." See what's new on this season of The Walking Dead.
David Klein, ASC and Romeo Tirone, ASC shoot the blood-soaked adventures on HBO's True Blood in 3-perf 35mm format. "We've chosen to stay on film for a couple of reasons," says producer Gregg Fienberg. "The first is that the show has an amazing look that truly is a big part of our success. Film gives us a certain feel, and I don't want to mess with that. Film also gives us range. We use several different stocks each season, depending on the type of scene we're doing, to help us achieve a specific look."
The underworld of the Shadowhunters was captured on Kodak film for The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones. "Film is still the best image capture and the best reality buffer," says DP Geir Hartly Andreassen, FSF. "The rich skin tones and overall texture are unbeatable. I think it will take a long time until digital will achieve the soft and organic look of film stocks. And because this story does contain a lot of otherworldly sequences, we needed to achieve a natural and realistic look so that the audience could explore and experience this new fantastical world alongside our main character Clary."
Dracula Untold, due out in 2014, is currently being captured by John Schwartzman, ASC on Kodak film. The Oscar®-nominated cinematographer insisted on film in part because of its ability to perform under difficult conditions. "Electronics and water don't mix well," he notes. "On the location scout, we were standing in the pouring rain, and I said, 'We need film cameras. We can throw them down on the sandbags in the mud and they work.' You're not going to run fiber optic cable across this field. We can't have a DIT tent on the hillside in the muck. On a 70-day schedule, it ain't going to work. Framestore is handling the visual effects on Dracula Untold, and they were so relieved to find out that we were shooting film, because of the resolution. You can't measure it in dots."
Just like film, a good scare will transcend many generations—remember jumping out of your seat while watching The Exorcist, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th, or Halloween? Brace yourself, because there is plenty more fright coming your way on film.

Idiopathic hypersomnia
Idiopathic hypersomnia is sleeping too much (hypersomnia) without an obvious cause. It is different from narcolepsy, because idiopathic hypersomnia does not involve suddenly falling asleep or losing muscle control due to strong emotions (cataplexy).
Alternative Names
Hypersomnia - idiopathic; Drowsiness - idiopathic; Somnolence - idiopathic
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
The usual approach is to consider other potential causes of excessive daytime sleepiness.
Other sleep disorders that may cause daytime sleepiness include:
Other causes of excessive sleepiness include:
- Atypical depression
- Certain medications
- Drug and alcohol use
- Low thyroid function (hypothyroidism)
- Previous head injury
Symptoms often develop slowly during adolescence or young adulthood. They include:
- Daytime naps that do not relieve drowsiness
- Difficulty waking from a long sleep -- may feel confused or disoriented
- Increased need for sleep during the day -- even while at work, or during a meal or conversation
- Increased sleep time -- up to 14 - 18 hours per day
Other symptoms may include:
- Anxiety
- Feeling irritated
- Loss of appetite
- Low energy
- Restlessness
- Slow thinking or speech
- Trouble remembering
Cataplexy -- suddenly falling asleep or losing muscle control -- which is part of narcolepsy, is NOT a symptom of idiopathic hypersomnia.
Signs and tests
The health care provider will take a detailed sleep history. Tests may include:
- Multiple-sleep latency test
- Sleep study (polysomnography, to identify other sleep disorders)
A psychiatric evaluation for atypical depression may also be done.
Idiopathic hypersomnia is usually treated with stimulant medications such as amphetamine, methylphenidate, and modafinil. These drugs may not work as well for this condition as they do for narcolepsy.
Important lifestyle changes that can help ease symptoms and prevent injury include:
- Avoiding alcohol and medications that can make the condition worse
- Avoiding operating motor vehicles or using dangerous equipment
- Avoiding working at night or social activities that delay bedtime

MADISON, Wis. – There's always a few nerves coming off a long break and going into the first meet of the season. Many athletes use the first competition as a testing ground; to see how much off-season training has paid off.That was the scene for the Wisconsin women's track and field team Saturday as the Badgers kicked off the new season with the Badger Track Classic at the Shell. "It's nice to see where we're all at," said junior Taylor Smith. "Since this is the first meet we're all like, 'Ooh. What are we going to throw? Is it going to be good? Is it going to be bad?' I think we're all doing pretty well for the first meet coming back from winter."Many would consider "pretty well" an understatement. Wisconsin's throws group came out for their first meet with a dominating performance.The Badgers took the top four spots in both the weight throw and the shot put. Four throws for four personal -best marks. Four throws for four top-10 all-time performances -- and two that shattered the school records in both events. Smith threw for a repeat performance, breaking the school record in the shot put in her first meet of the year for the second-straight season, as her launch of 53 feet, 4 1/4 inches took top honors. However, this time she swept both throws records, taking the No. 1 spot in Wisconsin's weight throw history, as well. With a toss of 67 feet, 1/2 inches, Smith bested her former school record of 65-6 3/4 by 1 1/2 feet. "It actually surprised me a little bit, especially with shot put," said Smith. "Weight throw has been going really well this year, so I kind of expected that. I actually pulled it together because I was really nervous. "Shot put, though, was a bit of a surprise and I hope it only gets better."Following Smith in the shot put was promising freshman Kelsey Card, who competed in her first collegiate meet and came out with a personal record and two top-10 all-time Wisconsin marks. Card's impressive first showing started out with a throw of 55-9 in the weight throw for fourth place in the meet and 10th in the Badgers' record book. Her success didn't stop there. Taking second place in the shot put, Card threw 51-0 3/4, a distance that is third-best in Wisconsin history and a personal-best mark for Card. Sophomore Abby Lueck rounded out the trio that grabbed spots in the Badgers' all-time top 10 of both the weight throw and shot put. Lueck nabbed second place in the weight throw with a distance of 59-8 1/4 that ranks No. 5 all-time at UW. In the shot put, she threw 47-11 3/4 for another personal-best and top-10 performance. The throw secured her fourth place in the meet and the No. 10 spot in Wisconsin's record book. Also contributing to Wisconsin's performance was redshirt freshman Angela Boushea, who took third in the meet's weight throw event with a distance of 58-8 and now stands at No. 6 on the Badgers' all-time list. Not to be outdone, sophomore Jasmine Boyer threw 49-11 1/4 in the shot put for a personal-best mark and the fifth-best throw in Wisconsin history. "Our group is really good and really strong this year," Smith said of her teammates in the throws. "It's great because we can push each other. "We are all working together to keep pushing each other so I really enjoy the team this year."Overall, the Badgers completed the day with five wins -- including 1-2-3 finishes in four separate events.Junior Ashley Beutler won the mile with a time of 4 minutes, 53.74 seconds. Following closely behind was senior Dani Fischer at 5:13.26 for second place, while sophomore Rachel McNally clocked in at 5:17.96 to secure third. Junior Jessica Flax led the Badgers with a win in the 60-meter hurdles, crossing the finish line at 8.78. Unattached teammates Dorcas Akinniyi (8.84) and Marrisa Savitch (9.01) -- a freshman making her UW debut -- followed in second and third place, respectively. Wrapping up the UW wins was sophomore Liga Blyholder, who clocked in at 5:57.12 in the 1000 meters. Senior Megan Beers crossed the finish line seconds later at 2:59.39 for second place. The Badgers now look to next weekend's Wisconsin Elite Invitational, with the women's competition beginning Saturday at 11 a.m. (CT). Live results can be found on UWBadgers.com

Richard Tew,

Thanks for the response. I didn't know there was a newer version
 of stacklesslib. I will definitely give it a try. I had hoped
that by calling the MainLoop.run method, stacklesslib would "get
all the pumping it needs." Here's the code in s.py that calls
MainLoop.run().

if GO_STACKLESS:
 stackless.tasklet(do_server)()
 app = stacklesslib.main.MainLoop()
 app.run()

Is there something else I need to do to pump the socket module?

KANSAS CITY (AP) - The president and CEO of Truman Medial Centers in Kansas City plans to retire, effective July 18.
John W. Bluford III, who turns 65 on May 1, has worked at the medical centers since 1999. His retirement was announced in a news release Friday.
The health system said Bluford is working with a committee of its board members and University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine appointees to ensure a smooth leadership transition.
Peggy Dunn, chairman of the board of directors, says Bluford and the board have been working on a succession plan for several years, and a search committee will begin immediately looking for Bluford's replacement. She says a successor will be identified before Bluford leaves.

Girls Lacrosse: Agoura beats Oak Park 13-7 to win CIF Northern Division title
After two nail-biters against its toughest rival during the regular season, the Agoura High girls lacrosse team left no doubt in its third matchup against Oak Park.
The Chargers scored five straight goals in a 4-minute, 32-second span of the first half en route to a 13-7 win in the CIF Northern Division championship game at West Torrance High on Wednesday.
With the score knotted 1-1, Agoura senior Jackie Adelsberg scored from inside at the 14:21 mark of the first half. After goals by Kelsie Garrison and Talia Fiance, Adelsberg's goal at 9:21 made it 6-1.
"It was a really great team win," Adelsberg said. "We didn't force anything. We were smart. We shared the ball. And we took care of the clock and that's how we won. We possessed the ball and we were in control the whole game."
Garrison scored for Agoura 17 seconds into the game. Oak Park's Morgan Shorts tied the score at the 21:33 mark of the first half. However, Agoura had already begun to dictate the tempo.
"The big difference in the game was the draws, we won 16 of 22," Agoura head coach Rob Fiance said. "And we won the ground balls and had possession of the ball the majority of the game. Our goalie was great. Our defense played great. The girls were 18-0. It's just amazing."
Agoura junior goalkeeper Issi Sherren made several key saves on shots from close range as Agoura (18-0) built a 9-4 halftime lead. Sherren had 13 saves in the game.
"Issi Sherren has been a huge attribute to our team," Talia Fiance said. "Her saves today were absolutely insane."
Adelsberg scored four goals for Agoura. Talia Fiance and Garrison each three goals. Natalie Bradley finished with a goal and two assists. Emilie East had a goal and an assist. Sophie Friedl scored a goal.
Shorts and Taylor Martino scored consecutive goals to pull Oak Park to within three, 6-3, but Talia Fiance scored twice and East once as the Chargers extended the advantage back to 9-3 with 1:19 left in the half.
Julia Gilliam scored for Oak Park to make it 9-4 before halftime. But Agoura got goals early in the second half from Bradley and Friedl to up the lead to 11-4.
"Honestly, I can't even explain the feeling," said Talia Fiance, who led Agoura with 65 goals. "It feels unreal. The best part is we all did it together. It wasn't a one-man job, we came together as a team."
For Oak Park (16-6-1), Shorts had three goals, Gilliam scored two and senior captains Martino and Jennifer Maholchic each had one.
"It's been an amazing experience," Maholchic said. "My team has fought so hard to get here. It feels great to leave this team at its highest point."
Oak Park's roster is full of freshmen and Agoura has a strong junior class, so the rivalry should remain intense next year.
"I'm really proud of this group of girls that played today," Oak Park coach Courtney Schneck said. "I'm looking forward to the next few seasons because we have a young team, so we have a lot to build on."
Both coaches were proud, also, that two teams from Ventura County played in the title game.
"It was two good teams," Rob Fiance said. "We're very proud that two teams from our area were in the finals. Lacrosse is here to stay in California."

It's simple: If Tom Brady is back to the old Tom Brady, Moss is by far the best receiver in fantasy football. With Brady injured last season, back-up Matt Cassel often struggled to throw accurate passes downfield, yet Moss still had 1,008 yards and 11 TDs.

Anyone who watched last year's playoffs knows that Fitzgerald is a beast. The only question is whether a healthy Anquan Boldin will steal away a lot of passes that would have gone to Fitz.
3. Andre Johnson, Houston Texans
Johnson could be the most talented pass-catcher in football. He a whopping 115 catches last season for 1,575 yards, the second time in three years he's topped 100 catches. He just needs to do a better job of getting open in the red zone, as Johnson has never topped eight TDs in a season. If quarterback Matt Schaub finally stays healthy, this should be the year Johnson does it.
4. Steve Smith, Carolina Panthers
Last year, Smith was the only player in football to average more than 100 receiving yards per game. No one makes the big play like he does, though his fantasy value gets hurt because he's too small to dominate in the red zone.
5. Reggie Wayne, Indianapolis Colts
Wayne's best season (104 catches, 1,510 yards, 10 TDs) came in 2007 when Marvin Harrison was injured. Now that Harrison is no longer on the Colts, Wayne could blow up again.
6. Anquan Boldin, Arizona Cardinals
Boldin might be the toughest receiver in the NFL, capable of making catches underneath and then running over tacklers for big yards. He's usually Kurt Warner's favorite target in the middle of the field, but Larry Fitzgerald usually gets more passes near the end zone.
7. Greg Jennings, Green Bay Packers
Jennings has developed some great chemistry with young Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. He had a career year last season (80 catches and 1,292 yards) and should continue to grow as his young QB improves.
8. Roddy White, Atlanta Falcons
White is a dynamite deep threat and should get even better as young quarterback Matt Ryan improves. But the question is whether future Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez, traded to Atlanta, will start getting a lot of the passes that used to go to White.
9. Terrell Owens, Buffalo Bills
Say what you want about T.O., his best seasons are usually his first year with a new team. Of course, he has his work cut out for him with young quarterback Trent Edwards.
10. Calvin Johnson, Detroit Lions
This is the year that Johnson becomes a true superstar. Sure the Lions have a shaky quarterback situation with rookie Matthew Stafford and so-so veteran Daunte Culpepper. But Johnson is so good that he can make poorly throw passes into big plays. A lot of wide receivers break out in their third season, and I expect Johnson to be no different.
11. Wes Welker, New England Patriots
Welker has an amazing 223 catches in two seasons with the Patriots. He's not a major threat in the end zone (just three TDs last season), but he could at least double that total with a healthy Tom Brady leading the Pats.
12. Brandon Marshall, Denver Broncos
There's no denying his talent, but Marshall might be in for a long season. He has run into some trouble off the field, and now will have to produce without rising young QB Jay Cutler throwing him the ball. Plus, the Broncos face a schedule full of top-notch pass defenses.
13. Roy Williams,
Dallas Cowboys
With Terrell Owens out of town, Roy Williams becomes the best wide receiver in Big D. Tony Romo might throw more passes to tight end Jason Witten, but Williams has the ability to make more plays in the red zone, where T.O. used to thrive.
14. Laveranues Coles,
Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals have a heavenly offense for wide receivers now that Carson Palmer is back. Coles will replace now-Seahawks receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh in the Cincy lineup. Housh had 112 catches, 1,143 yards, and 12 TDs in 2007, the last time Palmer was healthy for a season. A big reason for his success was Palmer's accurate arm and defenses double-teaming Chad Johnson. Coles is just as talented as Housh, so expect big things.
15. Dwayne Bowe, Kansas City Chiefs
Bowe is supremely talented, catching 86 passes for 1,022 yards despite K.C.'s shaky quarterback play last season. There's good news for this season: The Chiefs added QB Matt Cassel, who was great for the Patriots last season. And Bowe is in his third season, the year many receivers break through as superstars. But there's bad news too: Bowe often loses focus and drops a lot of easy catches. He is also reportedly not doing well under new head coach Todd Haley during training camp. Bowe has plenty of promise, but is also one of the biggest risks out there.
16. Marques Colston, New Orleans Saints
Colston's 2008 season was an injury-plagued mess, but he has the potential to be a top 5 wide receiver if healthy. He had 1,202 receiving yards and 11 TDs in 2007, and could blow up again in the Saints' pass-happy offense.
17. Anthony Gonzalez, Indianapolis Colts
With Marvin Harrison gone, Gonzalez is set to step into Indy's starting lineup. He's a great possession receiver who could do big things with Peyton Manning getting him the ball.
18. T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Seattle Seahawks
Houshmandzadeh is a decent possession receiver who will get a lot of looks in Seattle's West Coast offense. He'll rack up a ton of catches, though yardage will be questionable since he doesn't run routes very far downfield or make tacklers miss after the catch.
19. DeSean Jackson, Philadelphia Eagles
Jackson has emerged as Philly's top wide receiver. He had 912 receiving yards last season, very impressive for a rookie, and showed some major big-play ability. His second season should be even better.
20. Chad Ochocinco, Cincinnati Bengals
Well, Chad Eight Five definitely has the dumbest name in football. But, fortunately for him, he also will have a healthy Carson Palmer throwing him the ball again. Ochocinco's lack of focus might hold him back a bit, but he's certainly capable of 1,200-plus yards and 10 TDs if everything goes right.
21. Vincent Jackson, San Diego Chargers
Jackson has overtaken Chris Chambers as San Diego's Number 1 receiver. He's big, fast, and makes a lot of great plays deep. However, I'm a little worried about all the great pass defenses on the Chargers' 2009 schedule.
22. Antonio Bryant, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Bryant emerged as a star last season, racking up 1,248 yards and seven TDs. But beware, Bryant recently needed knee surgery and could miss the entire preseason, and the Bucs are very unsettled at quarterback.
23. Santonio Holmes, Pittsburgh Steelers
After his fantastic Super Bowl performance, Holmes is set to become Ben Roethlisberger's favorite receiver. Unfortunately, the Steelers don't rely on the pass as much as many teams, and they often prefer to throw to Hines Ward and Heath Miller when they're near the end zone.
24. Lance Moore, New Orleans Saints
Moore is still recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, but if he's healthy, he could rack up numbers like Wes Welker. Moore will lose some catches if teammate Marques Colston is healthy, but quarterback Drew Brees does look for Moore often in the red zone.
25. Braylon Edwards,
Cleveland Browns
Last season, there wasn't a more disappointing receiver in football than Edwards. He was considered a top three receiver after posting 1,289 yards and a whopping 16 TDs in 2007. But he came back last year and had just 873 yards and three TDs. Part of it was Cleveland's terrible quarterback play, and part of it was Edwards's drops and lack of concentration. He may be able to improve his focus, but I'm not a fan of Brady Quinn, who has been too inaccurate with his throws.
26. Devin Hester,
Chicago Bears
The Bears now have a star quarterback in Jay Cutler, but no go-to receiver for him to throw to. Hester could become that receiver. He has a ton of speed, but it still learning how to play wide receiver. If he takes a big step forward this season, watch out. As Hester told SIKIDS.com during an interview last month (CLICK HERE to read it!), he has some big numbers in mind.
27. Santana Moss, Washington Redskins
The Redskins should be more comfortable in their second season under head coach Jim Zorn. Moss is still an explosive big-play threat, but I'm not sure he's a great fit in Washington's new West Coast offense.
28. Eddie Royal, Denver Broncos
Royal was great as a rookie, but between the departure of quarterback Jay Cutler and the upcoming schedule full of tough pass defenses, I smell a sophomore slump.
29. Hines Ward, Pittsburgh Steelers
Ward is getting up there in age (33), and Ben Roethlisberger might start going to Santonio Holmes more often after Holmes's Super Bowl heroics. Still, don't count out Ward when they get near the end zone.
30. Bernard Berrian, Minnesota Vikings
The Vikings have a fierce running game thanks to Adrian Peterson, and that should free up Berrian for some big plays. The question is whether Sage Rosenfels or Tarvaris Jackson can consistently throw accurate passes for Berrian downfield.
31. Jerricho Cotchery, New York Jets
Cotchery is the clear-cut Number 1 receiver for the Jets, but their lack of a proven quarterback means he'll have a tough time putting up big numbers.
32. Lee Evans, Buffalo Bills
The arrival of Terrell Owens might help the Bills, but it definitely hurts Evans's fantasy value. He's now a Number 2 receiver, and between T.O. demanding the ball and quarterback Trent Edwards's inconsistent play, Evans could disappear in some games.
33. Torry Holt, Jacksonville Jaguars
I'm not sure the 33-year-old Holt has anything left in the tank after years of nagging knee injuries. But the good news is that he'll have a chance to prove himself as Jacksonville's new Number 1 wide receiver.
34. Steve Smith, New York Giants
I expect Smith to emerge as Eli Manning's favorite target. He's not a big-play threat, but he has reliable hands and can make the catches underneath, kind of like T.J. Houshmandzadeh.
35. Donnie Avery, St. Louis Rams
Avery is a super-fast burner who's set to become the Rams' top receiver. But there are two problems. First, St. Louis is switching to a West Coast offense, a change that could limit the offense all season. And second, Avery is dealing with a stress fracture that could keep him out of the first couple games of the regular season.
36. Ted Ginn, Miami Dolphins
Ginn has shown flashes of stardom over his first two seasons, but the problem is that he's a deep threat, and Dolphins quarterback Chad Pennington doesn't have the arm strength to find him on the big play often enough.
37. Donald Driver, Green Bay Packers
Greg Jennings has surpassed him as the Packers' top receiver, but Driver can still be solid as a reliable second receiver in a good Packers passing game.
38. Kevin Walter,
Houston Texans
Walter isn't a star, but he gets a big boost because opposing defenses are always focusing all their attention on superstar teammate Andre Johnson. Walter had a career-high 899 receiving yards and eight TDs last season, and could top those stats if quarterback Matt Schaub can stay healthy.
39. Percy Harvin,
Minnesota Vikings
Harvin is generating a lot of buzz during training camp. He could be the fastest player in the NFL, and he has the kind of quick feet to make defenders look silly with his jukes. I'm not sure the Vikings' run-based offense is creative enough to get Harvin the ball, but it seems like they're going to try. The rookie could have a handful of huge games in 2009.
40. Josh Morgan, San Francisco 49ers
The Niners created a lot of buzz when they drafted Michael Crabtree last April, but don't forget about Morgan. He's a lock to start as long as Crabtree is holding out, and he has the kind of explosiveness and athleticism to make some big plays downfield. I'm not expecting huge things from and Niners receivers, but Morgan is the one I'd most like to own.
41. Derrick Mason, Baltimore Ravens
He retired, then changed his mind and came back. I'm not worried about that as much as I am worried about the mounting injuries for the 35-year-old Mason. The good news is that he's tough enough to play through the pain, and he should be Joe Flacco's favorite target again. Mason has topped 1,000 receiving yards in seven of the past eight seasons!
42. Earl Bennett, Chicago Bears
The Bears are looking for a go-to receiver. If it's not Devin Hester, why not Bennett? He played with new Chicago QB Jay Cutler at Vanderbilt, so the two already have chemistry. The second-year receiver is a good route runner with reliable hands, and playing with Cutler could lead to a breakout season.
43. Steve Breaston, Arizona Cardinals
There aren't many third receivers worth taking in fantasy leagues, but Breaston is one of them. He had 1,006 receiving yards in his second season, and Arizona plays three wide receiver sets often. Of course, Breaston's numbers did get a boost when Anquan Boldin was out with an injury last season.
44. Deion Branch, Seattle Seahawks
I'm not sure Branch will ever be the same because of his chronic knee problems. He could emerge as the second receiver in Seattle, but he'll have lost some explosiveness.
45. Justin Gage, Tennessee Titans
The Titans are one of the most conservative offenses in football, choosing to run it rather than throw. Gage did show some flashes in the red zone last year though, catching six TDs in just 12 games.
46. Chris Chambers, San Diego Chargers
Chambers is now playing second fiddle to Vincent Jackson in San Diego (and third or fourth fiddle if you factor in tight end Antonio Gates and running back LaDainian Tomlinson). Chambers could have the occasional big game, but he's going to be too inconsistent for fantasy owners.
47. Kevin Curtis, Philadelphia Eagles
After a couple of disappointing seasons, including a crucial drop in last year's playoffs, Curtis seems to be slipping. He'll likely fall behind DeSean Jackson and Philly's top wide receiver, and Curtis might have a long way to go before he re-earns quarterback Donovan McNabb's trust.
48. Brian Robiskie, Cleveland Browns
Robiskie is the safest pick among the rookie receivers. He played in a pro style offense at Ohio State, runs great routes, has outstanding hands, and is set to start opposite Braylon Edwards. He'd be higher on this list if not for Brady Quinn's shaky play so far in the NFL.
49. Michael Crabtree, San Francisco 49ers
Crabtree continues to hold out for a monster contract (and his advisers continue to make dumb comments, CLICK HERE to see). Wide receiver is one of the most difficult positions for a rookie to adjust to. By missing training camp, Crabtree is missing out on a chance to develop chemistry with his quarterbacks and to learn the proper reads and adjustments in the offense. At this rate, the best scenario is that Crabtree doesn't step in as a starter until midseason. He's very talented, but also a very risky pick in fantasy leagues.
50. Bryant Johnson, Detroit Lions
Johnson showed some flashes of talent last season in San Francisco. Considering how opposing defenses will be focusing on fellow Lions receiver Calvin Johnson, Bryant could find himself open quite a bit in 2009. What he does in those situations will determine whether he's a solid fantasy player or not.

How Was Your Explore Tour Leader
Prachi was very nice making sure that we were comfortable and didn't require anything
What Tips Would You Give To Someone Else Booking This Tour
Take warm clothing for the early morning game drives as driving along in an open jeep was pretty chilling (which I found surprising) Beaware that although trip is called "tiger tiger" there are only approx 50 tigers in the reserve and despite doing 5 drives the closest we got to one was seeing one at the top of a cliff (So if your a keen photographer take a telephoto lens with you)
Do You Have Anything Else To Add
What would have made the trip even better despite not seeing tigers is on the train journey back to Delhi is stopping in Agra to see the Taj Mahal..........
What was the highlight or most memorable moment of your tour?
"The highlight of the tour had to be seeing the tiger. I joked that this was a tiger hunting holiday and that it what it was. We looked at tracks and reacted to other animals warning calls.
When the tiger was moving all the jeeps in the park converged at high speed and is like being on a mad roller-coaster trying to hang on over rough terrain and vehcles battling to get in prime position.
Finally it was memorable for the journey to the park. Very cold in morning through the dawn light and then being waved at by local children on the way back"
How was your Explore Tour Leader?
"The Tour leader was excellent. His knowledge of the wildlife in the park was excellant and his anticipation of the tiger's movements was unsurpassed. For the sighting we got he got us into the right place at the right time and you couldn't ask for more.
In the down time he made sure that the hotel looked after us, guided us through the obligatory shopping and tipping, and looked after us superbly with the trains and porters.
He also arranged for lunch at a local village and an extra temple visit"
What tips would you give to someone else booking this tour?
"Think long and hard about going on this holiday. If you have to see a tiger then the tour isn't long enough to guarentee a sighting and you would need a couple of days more. There are very few tigers and you only have a chance of seeing them if they decide to move. I would not reccomend this holiday on that basis.
If it's an add on to another tour, or you don't mind taking a chance on the wildlife then it's an experience."
Do you have anything else to add?
"Believe the reports when they say the jeep is cold. It's open, you're doing 50mph and the sun may not be up. Bring windproof clothing because without it you will feel the cold.
Be very cautious about the food on the train.
The hotels, I thought, were above the standard I would expect."
What was the highlight or most memorable moment of your tour?
I thoroughly enjoyed the tiger hunt. I saw so much more and got some super pictures beyond just tiger. Deer, peacocks, monkeys, owls, and wonderful sunset over the abandoned fort. Atmosphere was a pleasure and a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
How was your Explore Tour Leader?
Tour leader pulled out every stop in our efforts to find a tiger. His enthusiasm and energy motivated and excited everyone.
What tips would you give to someone else booking this tour?
Make sure you do the rickshaw tour of Delhi, its great fun.
Do you have anything else to add?
The small hotel at the park was a wonderful peaceful place with great atmosphere and great service.
What was the highlight or most memorable moment of your tour?
"The fun and invigorating cycle rickshaw tour of Delhi.
The expectation and intensity of the tiger tracking. "
How was your Explore Tour Leader?
Ateeq was a master tiger tracker. He knew their haunts and he could recognise the individual tigers. He put his heart and soul into the hunt to find us some tigers to watch.
What tips would you give to someone else booking this tour?
Look around at all the scenery and all the wildlife. Theres loads to see if you open your gaze beyond the compulsion to see a stripey cat.
Do you have anything else to add?
The accomodation was small, friendly and the service was impeccable.
|We had the most amazing trip the sights and sounds of dehli were very different from here. once we arrived at the safari lodge we started our game drives. we had 8 tiger sightings over 5 drives! i cant explain how exciting it was to see them where they belong. we even had the luck of seeing a male tiger looking after his cubs which is very rare. our tour guide Ateeq was brilliant he knew exactly the best spots and zones to see them. we also saw samba deer, spotted deer, crocadiles, antelope, birds and monkeys. I had the time of my life and will never forget it. All the staff at the safari lodge were helpful and friendly. a real must for tiger lovers! the whole trip was well planned and value for money.
