The Supreme Court on Monday decided to take a second look at a plea for revival of a corruption case against former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati in the multi-crore Taj Heritage Corridor scam.
A Bench led by Justice H L Dattu admitted a bunch of petitions that have sought prosecution of Mayawati and her the then environment minister Naseemuddin Siddiqui. It issued notices to the BSP leaders, seeking their replies within four weeks.
The petitions, which were dismissed by the Allahabad High Court in November last, have challenged a refusal by the competent authority to grant sanction for prosecuting the duo for alleged offences of criminal conspiracy, cheating, forgery and under certain provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
We will examine this case. We want to take a second look at the matter, said the Bench while issuing notices also to the Centre, the CBI and the UP government.
During the hearing, Mayawatis counsel and senior advocate K K Venugopal brought to the notice of the Bench that it was for the fourth time that such a plea had reached the court. The Bench, however, responded that it would want to examine the matter afresh.
Earlier, senior advocate Shanti Bhushan, appearing for the batch of petitioners, claimed that the High Court erroneously dismissed the batch of PILs on the ground that the CBI had failed to obtain sanction from the competent authority Governor in this case for prosecuting Mayawati and Siddiqui.
The point in law is squarely covered by the Supreme Courts judgment in Prakash Singh Badal case wherein it has been ruled that a prior sanction for prosecution was not required in a case where the alleged act was neither in discharge nor in purported discharge of official duties, he contended.
The petitioners have also contended that the CBI did not challenge the decisions of the then Governor refusing sanction for prosecution and a special CBI court dropping the criminal proceedings against the two politicians in the absence of sanction.
The High Court had upheld a June 2007 order of the special CBI court, which dropped the criminal proceedings against Mayawati and Siddiqui for want of the then Governors sanction to prosecute them.
In 2002, Mayawati had launched the project to beautify areas near the Taj Mahal. A year later, the Supreme Court had directed CBI to conduct an inquiry into the alleged scam in the Rs 175-crore

As has been discussed briefly in the past, the Akron Aeros bullpen has been just another factor of their incredible play thus far this season. Led by several top draft picks and also a couple of organizational players, the Aeros have relied upon their bullpen heavily en route to a 56-33 record thus far. Of course, if you are interested in seeing this bullpen in action along with projected starter Jeanmar Gomez (6-3, 3.21 ERA) then you can always join us at Canal Park on Thursday.
For the season, the Aeros bullpen was 25-11 with a 3.24 ERA heading into Saturday's game against Erie, and recently had a ten-game stretch with a 1.08 ERA. Erik Stiller, Steven Wright and Carlton Smith have all had long scoreless streaks of 15+ innings plus, while Vinnie Pestano is breaking saves records left and right. Josh Judy came to Akron after a 12-win season out of the bullpen last year, while Zach Putnam is the hot-shot prospect and Neil Wagner is the intelligent veteran. For more information, here are player profiles of the seven players that currently inhabit the pen for Manager Mike Sarbaugh in Akron as all inhabit top 65 rankings in the Indians Prospect Insider blog.
Steven Wright – Easily the most consistent pitcher in the pen, Wright (pictured above) was named to the Carolina League mid-season All-Star Team with Kinston in 2008, and was the Indians second-round selection in the June 2006 Draft out of the University of Hawaii. The starter turned reliever ranked second in the Indians Player Development System in innings pitched and was fourth in both ERA and strikeouts last season. He was also fourth in the organization in strikeouts while splitting time between Kinston and Lake County in 2007. The 24-year-old probably has the best chance of any player on the Aeros roster to make an immediate impact on the Indians when rosters expand in September as he is 6-0 with a 3.31 ERA on the season (5-0 with a 2.48 ERA as a reliever).
Carlton Smith – A huge surprise this season and recently named an Eastern League mid-season All-Star in place of Pestano, Smith was a 21st-round selection in 2004 out of Piscataway High School (NJ). His 11 wins with Lake County tied him for fourth in the Indians Player Development System while his 12 victories with Kinston last year led the team and were tied for the most in the Carolina League. His older brother Corey was Akron's starting third baseman in 2003 and 2004. In 20 relief appearances this season, the 23-year-old has allowed a run only six times and on the year is now 4-1 with a 2.82 ERA after seeing his scoreless streak come to an end July 6th.
Vinnie Pestano – A sidearmer/submarine pitcher in the mold of former Aeros closer Randy Newsom, Pestano ranked second among Indians minor leaguers with 24 saves in 2008 between Kinston and Lake County. The Cal State-Fullerton product was a 20th-round pick in the 2006 June Draft and has held opponents to a .217 batting average in his career coming into 2009. He notched 13 saves and a 0.97 ERA in 2006, helping lead Fullerton to a Big West Championship and a trip to the College World Series. The closer since day one for Akron, he was placed on the disabled list with elbow soreness earlier in the week, but still leads the entire minor leagues with 24 saves on the season. The 24-year-old remains well on pace to smash the franchise-record Newsom set with 29 saves last year.
Erik Stiller – Another pitcher who has had mixed results in the starting rotation this season, Stiller was signed in June 2006 as a non-drafted free agent out of Princeton University. The hard-throwing right-hander who turned 25 on Friday went a combined 5-5 at Burlington and Mahoning Valley in 2006 with a 4.26 ERA and a strikeout-to-walk ratio of nearly 3:1 in 13 games (12 starts). Now a reliever, Stiller has held opponents to a .229 batting average over the past two seasons and ranked third on the Aeros with 35 relief appearances last season. He has made five spot starts this season going 0-3 with a 7.24 ERA, but in 21 relief outings is 6-0 with a 2.06 ERA.
Josh Judy – A product of Indiana Institute of Technology, Judy was Cleveland's 34th-round selection in the 2007 June Draft. He has been a reliever his entire career, yet managed to tie for the Indians Player Development System lead in wins with 12 during the 2008 season. He comes into the season with the lowest career ERA of any Aero, and is now in only his second full year of professional baseball. In 18 relief outings he has allowed an earned run only five times, a solid percentage for a 23-year-old who on the season is just 4-3 with two saves and a 4.34 ERA.
Zach Putnam – The first 2008 draftee to play for the Aeros, Putnam made the most substantial leap to Double-A since Trevor Crowe played for two months in 2006 following his first-round selection in 2005. He was selected in the fifth round out of the University of Michigan in the 2008 June Draft and was a standout two-way player for the Wolverines, batting .319 with 19 home runs and 110 RBI in 116 games played the past two seasons. He also led the team up North with a 9-0 record and a 2.58 ERA as a starter in 2008. In his first stint as a reliever this season, he has shown spurts of his potential as the 22-year-old is now 1-2 with a 5.72 ERA.
Neil Wagner – Wagner came into the season as the Aero with the highest strikeout per nine inning ratio (10.92) in his minor league career. The Indians 21st-round selection in the 2005 June Draft out of North Dakota State University, Wagner was fifth in the Indians Player Development System in saves during the 2007 season. He ranked second among Kinston relievers with 41 appearances last season but has been Mr. Do-It-All for the Aeros this season. He has appeared in many different situations and many various roles and is now 0-3 with a 4.46 ERA with 33 strikeouts in 36.2 innings pitched.

It has only been a few short week since Meg Whitman took over as CEO of Hewlett Packard (HPQ) and things are already starting to look up. HP has scrapped the plan to abandon one of its core businesses since dumping its previous CEO. In the short time that Whitman has been at HP she has helped to reestablish investor confidence in the company. Whitman may not have been my choice for CEO of the technology giant but she is far better than the previous CEO.
HP's New Business Strategy
Whitman has decided that HP will no longer sell off its PC business. Former CEO Leo Apotheker was trying to sell the PC business or spin it off before he was shown the door last month. Whitman initially said that she would uphold the direction that Apotheker set for the company. However after a review of the company's business units she decided to hold onto the PC business.
I think that Whitman made a wise choice. One of the reasons for the sell off in HP over the past year is the fact that investors had no confidence in the management team. Hewlett Packard seemed to be changing its business strategy every single quarter. Apotheker was even giving up on the company's tablet PC's after a few month.The company had no direction and appeared rudderless.
Whitman is not giving up on the tablet PC market and has plans to compete against Apple for market share. HP is going to hold onto its operating system and maintain its status as the number one seller of personal computers in the world.
I have more confidence in the company's direction today than I did just a few short months ago. Getting rid of a $40 billion dollar a year business overnight seemed like a bad decision. The company can continue to increase its investments in software and cloud computing while still generating profits from its personal computers divisions.
With a stock price of $26 per share, a ton of cash on the balance sheet, and a competent CEO onboard Hewlett Packard is a reasonable buy. I would not have thought this just two months ago.

The Love Guru Story
Darren Roanoke (Romany Malco), the star player of the Toronto Maple Leafs, is suffering from stress because his wife, Prudence Roanoke (Meagan Good), has left him for Jacques "Le Coq" Grandé (Justin Timberlake). The stress causes his hand to shake, which affects his hockey performance. Jane Bullard (Jessica Alba) enlists the support of Guru Maurice Pitka (Mike Myers) to help Darren with his stress so that the team can hopefully break their losing streak. In addition to getting a considerable payment, Pitka would be invited to Oprah Winfrey's show, which he hopes would help him become the #1 guru, a place currently held by Deepak Chopra. Pitka succeeds, but feels no need anymore to become #1, more important is his love for Bullard. However, in connection with a vow Guru Tugginmypudha gave him a chastity belt. He returns to him to have it removed. Tugginmypudha agrees that it can be removed now, and explains how to do that; to Pitka's surprise no key is needed.

Hokie Pokie Sound Machine
This is the worst-designed phonograph record player I have ever seen, and yet as soon as I found out about it, I knew I had to have one. It is so ridiculous, it makes me laugh just thinking of it. A conventional record player has a turntable on which the record sits, and the stylus or needle is drawn across it. The Hokie Pokie Sound Machine has the record sitting on a flat surface, and the stylus is on the bottom of a little plastic truck that drives over the grooves!
I found out about the Hokie Pokie Sound Machine from Who would buy this? : the Archie McPhee story by Mark Pahlow, an essential reference work in my growing library of tackological research. It was published by the Accoutrements Publishing Company in 2008.
There is so much wrong with the way this concept was executed.

When Jay visited last week for his interview, we got to talking about the finale collections and he loved Ben's as much as we did. We thought about that later and we think, in a way, there are some similarities between Jay's finale collection and this one. The first is color, obviously. Both collections use color extensively and in unusual ways. The other is that, like Jay's crafts and Pennsylvania Dutch-inspired collection, Ben's science fiction inspiration was clear, concise and came from a place of deep appreciation. We've always said Jay's collection was the best the show ever had and truth be told, we don't think Ben's comes close to it in terms of innovation and perfect cohesion. It's still a powerful statement, beautifully realized, and an expression of something from deep down inside.
Or maybe we just really like nerd cothes. He said, through endearing tears, that this collection was inspired by Ray Bradbury's novel, The Martian Chronicles. We'll have to trust the Bradbury scholars in the comments section to let us know how he did on that front. Let's start the show.
Not a bad look
A unique look head to toe. Again, we really like the jacket and we really like that he gives you something to look at, you know? You might not wear those bicycle shorts but you couldn't take your eyes off them coming down the runway.
There are some fit issues here, so we guess the best we can say here is that we like the ideas behind this look, if not the look itself. Those techy-looking patches are something of a trademark for this collection and he returns to them more than once. We think they look kind of cool.
This is probably a bit too Star Trek for its own good. Conceptually, it's pretty cool. Like a circuit board in dress form.
He continues that effect here, but to diminishing returns. This is not a very flattering or pretty look.

Re: Breaking News: According to BILD, Haye and Chisora July 14th at West Ham Stadium
"This Hate-Fight is going to be awesome!
Heavyweight fighters David Haye(31) and Dereck Chisora (28 ) want to beat themselves up again. But this time IN the ring!
BILD.de learned that both boxers, who had a fight after Chisoras loss against Vitali Klitschko at a press conference, are gonna fight each other on July, 14th in London.
The fight is about to take place at the football-arena of London's West Ham United (35647 spectators). Both want to end what they began, a few months ago.
Promoter Kalle Sauerland confirms: "Chisora against Haye, that's gonna be the biggest hate-fight since a long, long time, in the heavyweight division. It's gonna be cracking."
The fights going to be announced officially on Tuesday, at West Ham Stadium.
Chisoras promoter Frank W4rren holds the main share of paytv-station "Box Nation". He really wants the fight between his fosterling and Haye.
Chisora manager W4rren heats up the fans:" there's a whole lot for those two to fight for".
Their first fight did not take place in the ring. After Chisoras loss against Vitali Klitschko (40) Haye provoked Chisora and shouted:" You are a loser!". After that the insulted stormed towards Haye and they beat each other up.
Their fight in July won't be a championship bout: Chisora lost his licence and Haye is also retired.
For Haye, this fight arrives at the opportune moment: Vitali wants to fight again in September. Haye, who announced to come out of retirement for a Klitschko-fight, could be a possible opponent. But in order to get a shot at the title, he needs to get into the WBC-rankings.
If both fighters step into the ring without a license, both place their possible careers in jeopardy, said Robert Smith, general secretary of the BBOBC, their careers as sportsmen.
W4rren sure will find a solution. The fight would be a luxurious deal for him. His TV-Station Box Nation is in poor condition right now. A mega bout between Englands superstars would be the best thing for W4rren.
This duel of hatred is going to electrify the fans: It's gonna be a double header with the Povetkin-Rahman bout on July 14 th and it's gonna be aired on ARD."

Hannah Harris helped the Bulldogs to a 3-1 mark last week and their first sweep of a Mountain West Series. She went 1-1 over the week in three appearances and one start and recorded a 1.20 ERA in 11.2 innings pitched. Against Nevada she tossed 9.2 scoreless innings in two appearances. She got out of a bases loaded jam in her relief appearance, which earned her second save and clinched the sweep. She recorded two strikeouts and gave up one walk.

Prairie High School drama teacher Claire Verity and Battle Ground High School freshman football coach Chris Higgins were honored last week at the annual Battle Ground Chamber of Commerce Recognition Banquet.
Verity was selected Teacher of the Year for 2012 but missed the event at the Heathman Lodge in Vancouver. It was the second night of the two-weekend run of "Wilder, Wilder, Wilder," a performance of three one-act plays by Thornton Wilder.
Students from Prairie High School and Battle Ground High School are staging the show at Prairie High School under Verity's direction.
Higgins, a defensive coordinator for the Battle Ground High School freshman football team, was named coach of the year. It's his third year coaching in the school district.
The two awards were open to teachers and coaches in the Battle Ground and Hockinson school districts, as well as private schools and youth sports organizations within the two districts.

Japanese big-boat WWII drama "Yamato" surges with patriotism, sentiment and gore but is unlikely to hit many targets outside Nipponese waters. A combo of "Titanic" and "Pearl Harbor," blockbuster garnered strong local biz during the winter after a slow pre-Christmas launch.
Japanese big-boat WWII drama "Yamato" surges with patriotism, sentiment and gore but is unlikely to hit many targets outside Nipponese waters. A combo of "Titanic" and "Pearl Harbor," blockbuster garnered strong local biz during the winter after a slow pre-Christmas launch. Centering on the wartime exploits of the largest naval vessel ever, yarn will appeal to military buffs and Asia completists, and the bloody finale, reminiscent of the opening reels of "Saving Private Ryan," is gruelingly impressive.On the 60th anniversary of the sinking of Japanese mega-battleship Yamato, fisherman and former crewmember Kamio (Tatsuya Nakadai) responds to a request to travel to the vessel's final resting place. Venture triggers flashbacks, good and bad, for Kamio, as pic balances the shock and awe of the boat's size with the crew's human drama. Recreation of the original vessel, augmented by CGI, is striking but not entirely convincing. Similarly, with the notable exception of Shidou Nakamura's turn as Petty Officer Uchida, pic never transcend melodrama to provide desperately needed authenticity. Vet director Junya Sato keeps multiple strands in formation, though the material is ultimately too unwieldy. Tech credits are fine.

Philippines – The military discovered a land mine factory of the New People's Army (NPA) in Agusan del Sur where it also recovered at least 163 improvised bombs, a spokesman for the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) Eastern Mindanao Command (EastMinCom) said.
Reports reaching the AFP headquarters at Camp. Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo showed the discovery of the NPA land mine factory in Sitio Mapait, Barangay Kauswagan, Loreto town, Agusan Del Sur last Wednesday was made possible with the help of villagers who informed the government security forces.
Lt. Gen. Ricardo Rainier Cruz III, EastMinCom commander, said "this is the biggest NPA land mine factory discovered so far."
"Indeed, the timely recovery of NPA land mines by our troops saved lives of the public," Cruz said, noting that the explosives could kill "thousands" if detonated simultaneously.
Cruz lauded the concerned villagers for reporting to them the location of the NPA land mine factory.
He further said: "The NDF wants to talk peace with the government However, they still continue to manufacture weapon of mass destruction. It is clear that the NDF are not really sincere about peace after all. Your AFPPNP will continue to safeguard the people from NPA extortion, deception and intimidation."

The American Clock," a panoramic observation of the Great Depression, has been rewound to inaugurate a season of Arthur Miller plays at the Signature Theater's attractive new Off Broadway home on 42nd Street. The drama, inspired by Studs Terkel's "Hard Times," failed to win critical approval on Broadway in 1980, and 17 years later its first act remains rich, vivid and touching while the second half is weighted with unnecessary clutter and commentary. A docu-video that traces subsequent events in American history makes for a pretentious finale. Fifteen actors take on some 50 roles as victims or survivors of the crash, from farmers and bankers to hobos and suicidal Wall Streeters. The early focus is centered upon the Baum family and their struggle to overcome the dissipation of the American dream. Moe (Lewis J. Stadlen) moves from an assured patriarch to a man whose spirit has been crushed. Laura Esterman, as Rose, the valiant, long-suffering wife, gives a beautifully textured performance as she pawns the last of her jewelry to make ends meet. Her poignant monologue as she finds comfort in a Gershwin tune reaffirms the Miller magic.
But only some of the scenes are so sharply focused. As the Baums are submerged in a passing parade of farm auctions, ideological rhetoric, homeless vagabonds and marathon dancers, the sprawling narrative moves from an early peak to a congested finale. Under director James Houghton's fluent staging, the show very nearly becomes a musical revue, with the ensemble even engaging in song and dance to Harold Arlen's encouraging "Get Happy."The cast displays much versatility, swiftly changing roles with easy access to costumes and props hanging in the wings. Patrick Husted is a standout in a feverishly humorous account of a successful corporate executive. A red-and-white striped playing space is set against a cloudy blue sky, accented by a clean and cutting light design. A quartet of barroom musicians accompanies the action, the flow of familiar melodies perhaps the most persuasive and enduring echo of the era.

About 10 days later than last spring, the main Tundra Swan influx has begun. I counted 680 in 4 fields (mainly frozen though more open water today vs yesterday) in SW Carver County this morning, 375 along Cty. Rd. 52 near Assumption, 202 along Salem Ave, 84 along 150th St, and 19 along Cty. Rd. 151. This total tops my greatest 1 day total last spring of 650 on March 17. Other waterfowl in the area were Canada, Cackling Geese, Mallard, Canvasback, Ring-necked Duck, Greater Scaup, Common Goldeneye, and Hooded Merganser.

The wait is over. Andy Murray has kicked off his first major campaign since that memorable Monday last September.
The first man standing between him and a second Grand Slam in a row on Tuesday was world No. 53 Robin Haase of the Netherlands.
In a curious coincidence, Tramlines once sat directly behind Haase's mother as she watched her son grind out a four-set win over a moody Fernando Verdasco during the second round of Wimbledon in 2011.
There was nothing creepy about this scenario. Tramlines was in the company of its own friends that day, who also happened to be Dutch.
And so Court 7 was the scene at which said Dutch companions were pontificating about the correct way in which to pronounce 'Haase', as his eavesdropping mother giggled quietly at the fore. 'Haase' is not said in the same manner as one would say Tommy 'Haas', for the record. The 'aa' also has a more elongated pronunciation than most commentators realise, just as 'Robin' as in 'Robin Hood' is not correct, because the accent falls on the 'i' and the 'R' should sound more like an 'H' really.
Peppered within this lesson of vernacular was talk of Haase's game. Among the Dutch he is known for having a lethal presence on court on a good day but also as somebody who struggles mentally when things aren't going his way.
It's safe to say that Tramlines witnessed both versions of the man on Rod Laver Arena on Tuesday.
In short, Murray destroyed his opponent 6-3 6-1 6-3. It wasn't exactly a tough day at the office in his current form, but there were certainly moments in which Haase showed his potential, and the match wasn't quite as straightforward as the score indicates.
Murray and Haase have a little bit in common. They were both born in 1987, just over one month apart of each other, and both stand at 6ft 3in. What is decidedly different about the pair is that the Scot is over a stone heavier, which is made up basically of muscle (or so we believe, if Ivan Lendl's training regime is anything to go by). Haase is a lankier version of Ruud van Nistelrooy.
The 25-year-old Dutchman rose to world number 33 last July – the best of his career – and though he has never progressed beyond the third round of a Grand Slam he was voted ATP's comeback player of the season in 2010 after an 18-month break due to a knee injury, when he shot from world number 447 to number 65 in the space of just one season.
The main problem with Haase is that he seems to lack that killer instinct to finish his opponents off when he gets out in front.
The curly-haired player very nearly disposed of an in-form Rafa Nadal at Wimbledon 2010, who was forced to come from behind twice to win in five sets, in a performance that was so much stronger than his No. 151 ranking at the time.
Murray has also been in dangerous Dutch territory before, when he was two sets down in round two of the 2011 US Open, a match that turned out to be an epic five-setter, which the Scot eventually clawed his way back to win.
The only other time the pair have met was in 2008, which Haase won, and given the history Murray was careful not to dismiss him as a cheap ride to the second round.
Haase did come out firing to start with. He possesses a blisteringly powerful forehand given that he is a left-hander who plays tennis with his right, and a serve that topped at 202km/h in this match. His average first-serve speed here was 184km/h to Murray's 161km/h, to put it in perspective.
These forehand power shots mixed with clever slices that cut low and dropped just over the net – along with a wayward drop shot from Murray – were what helped him break Murray's serve in the first set and take back two games in what would otherwise have been a 6-1 rout.
If consistency wasn't an issue, Haase would be a legitimate threat to highly-ranked players. When placed correctly, his big baseline drives had Murray running all over the place. The problem with making someone like Andy Murray run, though, is that his body is currently built like something akin to a track athlete. He has been clocked at covering 10 metres per second in very short intervals, which is on par with Usain Bolt over that distance, and possesses a rare combination of both endurance and strength, which usually cancel each other out.
Murray's impeccable reaction time means he gets to most balls and his strength ensure he usually sends them back with force. In Haase's case here, trying to play the big points all the time doesn't always work when your opponent is not only matching you but was also raising you one each time. Tellingly, Haase made 35 unforced errors to Murray's 20.
The Scot has brought a stronger form to Melbourne and his boost in confidence on the back of his US Open title, Olympic gold medal and Brisbane International win at the weekend were evident. Shots that would have rattled Murray in the past galvanised him into action for the next point, and there was never really any doubt as to who would win this time around.
Murray will meet Joao Sousa of Portugal in the second round after the 23-year-old saw off Australian wildcard John-Patrick Smith. He concedes to not knowing much about him apart from seeing him play a couple of clay court matches in Barcelona and at the French Open last year.
Murray is adamant that his golden year has produced no extra nerves nor changed his personal approach in any way.
"I've been asked that question a lot. It doesn't feel much different too me, I was still nervous before I went on the play the match," he said.
"But I don't think it makes personally a huge amount of difference to how you feel at the beginning of events. So whether everyone else is still thinking about the US Open or not makes no difference to me."
It may not, but the rest of the world is certainly talking about which of the big three men will surface in the final next Sunday. The main focus of course is on the Murray v Djokovic rivalry, which has ripened perfectly for this Slam, even more so as the Nadal v Federer equivalent enters its twilight.
Federer is unlikely to be victorious here. Obviously there is no discounting the 17-time Grand Slam winner and he is still lethal. But he is also pushing 32 and has only claimed one Slam title out of a possible 11 since he won his 16th, the Aussie Open in 2010.
He's also up against history. It's been 10 years since a male player over the age of 30 has won or even reached the final of this Open. It has also been 18 years since a male player has won without having played a warm-up tournament, and rest has been the Swiss's strategy in the lead-up to this season. Andre Agassi was the last to achieve both, in 2003 and 1995 respectively.
This is a love triangle that is destined to leave somebody heartbroken. In Shakespeare terms, if Murray and Djokovic are Orsino and Viola, then Federer is poor Olivia - noble, yes, but ultimately misplaced. Tramlines is by no means suggesting that Djokovic wants to dress up as a eunuch, but everyone wants a piece of Viola and Murray is potentially his best match.
As it happens, Agassi agrees.
"You really have to look at Murray and Djokovic as the two who are in the position to raise the standards," he told someone who then told the Scottish Daily Record.
"Heading particularly towards Australia, I like Andy. His game can play at the standard of Djokovic, Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer. He's slowly come to understand what he needs to do out there as far as not being so passive."
The Muzzball has what it takes. And he has the Rafa factor on his side – the Spaniard was also sidelined with injury for the US Open and Olympics. See a pattern?
If he meets Djokovic at the altar, he has had enough dress rehearsals to know how to play his part to perfection.
Scare of the day
Serena Williams took a worrying tumble on to her ankle during her 6-0 6-0 demolition of Romania's Elina Gallovits-Hall.
On whether she will be able to play on Thursday?
"Oh, I'll be out there. I mean, unless something fatal happens to me, there's no way I'm not going to be competing. I'm alive. My heart's beating. I'll be fine.
"Obviously there's pain, obviously there's swelling. So it's going to be really important to see how the next few hours unfold."
Twitter royalty award
The Williams sisters have a helluva lot of Grand Slam titles to their collective name - and now they can add 'Queens of Twitter' to that honour roll.
AAP report that Serena and Venus have topped IBM's Social Media Leaderboard so far at the Aussie Open - "a chart tracking and analysing Twitter conversations about all the players".
Tens of thousands of tweets have been sent about them since Monday, with about 80 per cent of those about Serena rated as 'positive' and 94 per cent for Venus.
Cheer squad persistence award
Three Aussie fans, living up to fan standards of recreating any song possible in the name of sport, chirped (with actions): "Andy Murray is our man, Eeyi eeyi, oh! With a drop shot here and a drop shot there. Here a drop, there a drop, everywhere a drop shot." The crowd got in the spirit every change of end.
Appreciative quote of the day
Andy Murray on being serenaded continuously by gentlemen in singlets, shorts and thongs: "I think it's the same group of guys that come every year. They're good support and sing pretty amusing songs. I think they haven't come up with too many new ones though, so I challenge them to that."
Interesting player fact
Wu Di today became the first male player from China to ever compete in the singles of a Grand Slam tournament after qualifying via a wildcard tournament in Nanjing. The 21-year-old world No. 186 fought back from a set down but lost his opening match 7-5 4-6 6-3 6-3 to Croatian Ivan Dodig.

Mythic anti-Semitism and Islamic radicalization alongside democratic aspirations and hopeful opposition; a look into contemporary Malaysian culture, politics, society
Eldad Beck
Published: 12.24.12, 21:33 / Israel News
Eldad Beck
MALAYSIA – "The world is in complete disarray. Evil spreads across Arab countries like dark clouds. A man who awakes a believer might lose his faith at nighttime. People trade their religion for a tiny portion of earthly goods. Whoever remains faithful will resemble a man holding blazing cinders. The temple will be the reason for the destruction of a country. The rebuilding of Temple will be accompanied by the destruction of a country and a horrible battle."
Numerous texts circulate in the Muslim world, prophesying the ominous emergence of Dajjal, a false prophet considered to be "the Jewish
King," whose coming will incite Armageddon.
Dozens if not hundreds of millions of Muslims around the world are extremely concerned with the impending coming of said king.
Related stories:
The text continues: "The occupation of Constantinople will be accompanied by the appearance of the king of Jews – Dajjal. Yes, the Jews are waiting impatiently for the arrival of their beloved king. And he shall appear; he shall conquer the earth, from east to west. He shall command all creatures to worship him. He will emerge from the valley between Syria
and Iraq, and spread disarray and mayhem all over. His desire is to lead humanity down the path of utter disbelief or the assuming of some false religion. Many will follow him, saying that he provides them with food. He will instill in them a false hope of his ability to restore the world's balance."
Dajjal signifies the ultimate evil under Islamic belief. The meaning of the name in Arabic is "deceiving" – a false messiah. Muslim
traditions depict him in various manners: Some argue he would emerge as a man blind in one eye; others see him as a monstrous creature, whose head is above the clouds and his feet are in the bottom of the ocean.
Apocalyptic recounts of Dajjal (Photos: Eldad Beck)
Islamic apocalyptic literature thrives in Malaysia, as in the rest of the Muslim world. Clerics and self-ordained experts offer contemporary interpretations to the figure of Dajjal and his imminent emergence. Many argue that his coming is correlated with conflicts in the Middle East: Prediction of a nuclear war between Iran
and Israel; Jewish domination of the Temple Mount and the expulsion of Al-Aqsa Mosque
and the Dome of the Rock; revolution in the Arab world; the suffering of Muslims by the hands of Christians and Jews. On top of everything, recent natural disasters – from massive earthquakes
to floods in Southeast Asia – are perceived as omens for nearing fulfillment of the apocalyptic prophecy.
In Malaysia, one of the strongest economies in Southeast Asia,
with a population of some 30 million people, there has never been a large Jewish community. Following the British Empire's mid-19th century conquest of the emirates that would later create the Federation of Malaya, a few merchant families from Iraq, India,
China and Europe have settled in the multicultural port-cities Melaka and George Town.
Hardly any Jews left. The Penang Jewish cemetery
Though many in the world perceive Malaysia as a successful example of a country that manages to integrate Islamic law
with democratic values, the country's Muslim majority – though it comprises only a little over 50% of the population – seems to exercise hostility toward many of the country's minorities, which could perhaps account for the fact that even though there are hardly any Jews in the country, it is nonetheless infected with anti-Semitism.
"Wherever you look, you'll see how the government… exercises a divide and conquer policy so as to stop the key minorities – Chinese, Indian, Christians, atheists, Buddhists and Pagans – from uniting," said a Malaysian opposition
activist, who spoke anonymously.
"A little over 40 years ago, the 'democratic' Malaysia declared a state of emergency, by which the government was empowered to detain any person indefinitely without trial," he said.
"This country has no democracy. You can't express your opinion freely. The government controls the media.
You can't believe a word of what is being printed in the papers. Instead of creating a shared national identity, they're creating cultural ghettos for the minorities, and offer benefits to everyone willing to convert to Islam – from governmental assistance to jobs.

senior official who was involved with efforts to promote Israeli-Malaysian ties told Ynet that the "Local regimes repeatedly reject our efforts to promote (diplomatic ties with Israel) and claim that they're afraid of the reactions of fundamentalist Islamists."
A Westerner familiar with Malaysian history argued that "part of the Malaysian Muslims' sympathy with Palestinians
stems from the fact that most Muslims in the country are the descendants of the region's indigenous people. The rest of the ethnic minorities – Chinese, Indians and others – were brought in by the British colonization systems in order to develop Malaysia's economy. The latter started to accumulate assets, funds and statuses that the Muslims feel were taken away from them.
According to the estimates of the anonymous opposition activist, "If political upheaval indeed occurs, it will only be in the direction of further radicalization, seeing as radical Islamists are part of the opposition. The Islamists are perceived as 'clean' politicians in the face of a corrupt government. They will also get many votes of Chinese and Indian voters.
"So many people around me are willing to go the extra mile to finally bring down the ruling party, but they're not really taking into account the meaning that their votes will have on their futures," the activist concluded.

Tough Love: A Street-Fighting Romeo Rises in 'Scott Pilgrim'
By Rossiter Drake on August 12, 2010 9:00 AM
At 40, Simon Pegg is too old to play Scott Pilgrim, the painfully ordinary 22-year-old bassist of the fledgling garage-rock trio Sex Bob-omb. Still rebounding from a painful breakup – he's the dumpee – Scott finds an effusive "Scottaholic" in high-schooler Knives Chau (Ellen Wong), who soothes his tattered ego but otherwise fails to engage him. For all his affectations, he's an aimless schlub.

Sharing your life with someone used to mean sharing a home, but now as many as one in 20 couples choose to live apart, a new study has revealed.
According to Sarah Essig, it may just be the secret of a happy union.
This year she and husband Tom will celebrate their second wedding anniversary and both say they have never been happier.
But Sarah and Tom dont just live in separate homes. They live in separate countries. Tom lives 3677 miles from Sarahs Dorset home in Virginia, USA, the Daily Mail reported.
The happy couple have not ruled out living together in the future, but have no immediate plans to do so.
53-year-old Sarah said that its unconventional but it works for them and they are incredibly happy.
She said that they love each other deeply and are married and plan to spend the rest of their lives as a couple. Living in separate countries doesnt make the relationship any less important, but in fact it has benefits, she said.
People can me quick to make assumptions about my marriage because my husband and I chose to live in separate counties, but I want people to know it can work, she added.
According to research the number of men and women living apart as couples has increased by 40 percent in the last decade. It is estimated that one million couples now keep a separate property.
But for Sarah, it wasnt a lifestyle choice to live apart from the man she loves, more a matter of practicalities.
The couple met on cruise in 2008 shortly after Sarahs marriage had ended.
Mother-of-two Sarah was holidaying with a friend while American widow Tom, now 59, was on aboard with his daughter when they got chatting at dinner.
She certainly was not looking for a relationship and neither was Tom. She had been through a divorce and he had recently lost his wife of 24 years to cancer.
The more they talked, the more they connected and ended up spending the whole holiday together talking.
They really understood each other and knew before the cruise ended that somehow or other they would remain in each others lives.
Both of them having children that needed them in different countries meant living together was not an option so they went into it with their eyes open.
After meeting again the couple spoke constantly on skype which Sarah describes as a best friend for couples living or working in

Spring 2014: Understanding Student Meetings on Campus
- Ignacio and I are working on an extensive student meetings project.
Spring 2014: Student Meetings Undergraduate Research Team
Spring 2014: Student Meetings Undergraduate Research Team
In the past few weeks, people have scheduled meetings with me and when it came time to "meet," I got Skype calls. Meeting through Skype or teleconferencing is not a new phenomenon, but the way we use the word "meet" seems to be shifting. In the past we clarified our meeting location in addition to the time. I wonder if there is an assumption made of knowledge workers that they will have computer or mobile access when the meeting time happens? As a professor, I am still required to hold office hours, and I often assume that people will come in person to "meet" with me. But this is changing. I want to meet my students, but face-to-face is not always their preference or priority. Sometimes the students are out of town and or permanently geographically distant, and meetings mediated by a device seem to be nice option.
I'm not a linguist, but since I study meetings, I find this shift fascinating. I wonder if this word will become the conversation equivalent of a Southerner's use of the word "coke" (the equivalent of soda or soft drink.) In the South, we often follow the request for a "coke" with the phrase, "what kind." To which I always reply, "a diet coke or a sparkling water." Perhaps in the future people will ask for a meeting and we will need to ask what kind. Then we will know to plug in our desktop video camera and be ready to Skype away when the meeting starts.
I had a wonderful group of 25 young women in my book club group at the Freshman Reading Round-Up! One thing that made this group so dynamic was the varied experiences they have had. We had international students, women with diverse cultural backgrounds, people from small private high schools and some from huge high schools. They all seemed to get a lot from the book and from the conversation. As they start their journey at UT Austin, I hope this conversation helps them think about how and when they will want to Lean In to their classes and their career choices. Good luck to a great group of young women who are well poised to Change the World!
After one week of classes, I am so energized by my great group of freshman in my signature course. They participate, they are curious, and I'm confident we will learn a ton this semester. They will start observing student organizational meetings this week, and we all look forward to learning more about campus life and how those meetings function.
I just fininish my 10th focus group on communication technology use and emergency communication. I had amazing groups of business owners, business managers, government managers, and nonprofit organizations who participated in one set of focus groups. I also got the perspective from staff, night shift workers, and students. There are obviously some similarities between the groups, but I am amazed at how many different types of work and school environments people experience. Several work enviroments cut off internet access during work hours to help their employees focus on their job. Other work environments make internet access and the latest social media tools an integral part of work. This is not suprising because jobs vary in how much workers need to connect with the outside world. It is important to remember that emergency communicator cannot assume that people have mobile devices and they are always connected. Many people do not have smart phones, and some have lost them. Just because we see and hear so much about apps, social media, and mobile tools, we cannot forget that access is not universal.
While I was attending the 2013 International Communication Association Conference in London, I got to meet with the London Metropolitan Police Department and learn about their stakeholder approach to emergency communication. They have a great philosophy about including the community and business owners in the communication path for urgent situations. They really worked with this philosophy during the Olympics and their strategies of incorporating social media into the communication process are solid best practices. I look forward to continuing the conversation and conducting some research on my own concerning a stakeholder approach to emergency communication. This resonates well with my organizational communication research. I appreciate Trevor Wheatley-Perry of Vocal in the UK for helping arrange the visit and my college Cindy Posey also traveled from Texas to attend the meeting.
I was preparing to teach interviewing for my internship class and I've updated my content substantially this year. For example, this recent article suggests that some companies might use tweets in addition to or in place of resumes. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2013/02/15/twitterviews-resumes/1919305/ While this might be an isolated case, I think it is a useful exercise to summarize "you" in 140 characters and in as few as 6. I was recently asked to summarize my work life in 6 words and it was really hard. I finally came up with: Biochemist turned social scientist, loves learning. Try it and see if it helps you crystalize what is important to you.
There are many trends in interviewing and hiring today. In my class we will also talk about Skype interviews, current trends of being interviewed by a computer through the Web, phone interviews, and making a substantial first impression.
My research on how people used combinations of technologies to receive emergency response notifications will appear in Human Communication Research in April 2013 (but an early version is on their website now). If you want to hear me describe this research and provide some of the background, feel free to check this out. My team found that multiple messages matter when we are trying to help people realize the urgency of the situation. There are differences between whether people receive the notification through an asynchronous communication channel like a text message or through synchronous channels like an in-person conversation. Those differences are discussed in detail in the article.
I am excited about the work that my undergraduate research team is conducting. We are examining student leadership and meetings. We will be reviewing the academic literature on this topic, but we hope to create content that is readable, but grounded in research.
I am very excited to be working with my undergraduate students who are a part of my Meetings Course. They are exploring student organizations on the UT campus and attending a wide variety of meetings. As the semester unfolds, they will be able to assess the quality and quantity of these student organization meetings and write a final case study for the class. The peer mentor for my class, Sarah Classen, is a wonderful resource for the students because she knows the campus very well. Once I teach this class a few times, I hope we can create a guide for student organizations that will help them run more effective meetings.

Jan 2011 Mises Circle Houston –
This event gave us the opportunity to meet with Ron Paul and
pass him a Silver Circle Round in honor of his diligence against the Fed.
We took to D.C. in quite the unorthodox fashion this year to spread the word, guerilla style, about Silver Circle. Buried in a sea full of conservatives we managed to come out of the conference with a
mention on FOXNews.com
and tons of new followers.
A new crowd and a new experience. Spending 4 days at South by Southwest helped us spread the word about our unique indie film while also giving us a taste of the film festival culture. Our mini-theatre held 8 different sessions of "Behind the Scenes" where attendees learned all about our filmmaking process from the Director himself.
2011 MegaCon
At this point we had become comic convention veterans. We had the supplies fellow exhibitors needed and the techniques that they were all taking notes on. With about 30,000 attendees we blew through tons of promotional material, saw a spike in our Facebook and website traffic, and also met some awesome new fans that loved the premise of the film and our animation style.
2011 WonderCon
San Francisco was a different flavor of comic convention, but nonetheless we found some enthusiastic new followers for Silver Circle but also met some of our online followers. A few times we were approached with, "Hey I'm fans of you all on Facebook."

Once upon a time, MarShon Brooks was a mid-first round pick known for one particular set of skills: scoring. But he's always known he could do more than that.
I watched him play extensively this season in person and on tape and I wonder if he's going to be able to get away with some of the things that he did at Providence, the way he monopolizes the ball, his shot selection, the tunnel-vision he shows, the bad body language, the lack of enthusiasm for playing defense.
The two guard was a gunslinger, though, when he entered the league. And in an evolving NBA where if you can't score efficiently then you better be a good passer or defender, it was almost inevitable that he'd struggle to find his place like so many before him. Being sent in a draft-day trade to a New Jersey Nets team that was one year removed from a historically putrid 12-win season certainly didn't help his long-term development, but it did give Brooks room to stretch. He had plenty of chances to show off his offensive repertoire in his rookie campaign, playing just shy of 30 minutes and scoring 12.6 points a night. Brooks was named to the All-Rookie Second Team, despite his 12.9 PER and totaling just 13 more assists than turnovers.
In his second season, Brooks fell in and out of the rotation, suiting up for garbage time on certain nights but in others playing over 20 minutes. His three-point output and accuracy fell, and he was shipped off to the Boston Celtics in the wake of the 2013-14 season. He rarely played, spent a week in the D-League, and repeated the cycle in Golden State after a mid-season deal shipped him to the Bay Area.
Once more into the breach went Brooks, this time to Los Angeles, where he ended up playing just 12.7 minutes a night under Mike D'Antoni. Yet that small bit of time offered a glimpse at a new and improved MarShon Brooks across the board. Now comes Brooks' 2014 Summer League stretch with the Sacramento Kings, which has reinforced the notion that he's looking to be more than just a shooter.
"Just showing what I can do. Obviously coach Malone knows I can score at this level. I'm just trying to keep the ball in front, just play hard. That's the main difference for me, just play hard, create extra possessions and at the same time just mentor these young guys," said Brooks after his second outing in Vegas. "I think the main thing is they drafted two shooting guards the last few years, the main thing for me is to show the team that I support them and try to make them better, at the same time it's going to make them better by competing against them as well."
Brooks puts an emphasis on not only doing other things as a basketball player, but helping guide the young up-and-comers on their journeys. Ben McLemore and Nik Stauskas – Sacramento's first round picks of the past couple years – are both vying to make their presence felt by the Kings coaching staff, something Brooks is well aware of.
"Honestly [this year] is a lot different a situation. Last time I was starting, shooting about 20 times a game. I was the featured player, I was the draftee. So in this situation I got a different role, but I'm just going to continue to play hard," Brooks said. And play hard he has in his limited showings. Brooks is averaging just 15 minutes of action in four contests, but has reeled in six rebounds per 30 minutes. He's looked to score with more efficiency, including an emphasis on getting to the line. However, ask him to judge his performance thus far and you'll learn he's uninterested in his own successes. "Solid man, I just need to be more aggressive," Brooks quickly said when asked to talk about his play. Perhaps here lies the biggest difference in Brooks from his rookie season. He gets it. Even if it won't materialize on the court at a consistent level right away, Brooks understands just being able to score isn't what makes it in the NBA today. It won't secure him a roster spot on its own, but it's a great place to start.

Michigan's insurance industry backs a proposed law that would prohibit the workers compensation system from funding claims for medical marijuana, according to the Insurance Institute of Michigan.
A bill already moving through the state Legislature would prohibit auto insurers from paying for medical marijuana as part of medical claims resulting from accidents, which some car insurers have already done because of uncertainty over requirements under Michigan's medical marijuana law.
Last week, S.B. 321—the legislation that would prohibit auto insurers from funding claims for medical marijuana—was passed by the Senate Judiciary Committee and is expected to go before the full state Senate, an Insurance Institute of Michigan spokeswoman said.
Auto insurers want the clarification because Michigan is the only state in the nation that holds them responsible for unlimited lifetime medical benefits, the spokeswoman said.
That means they could be on the hook for a lifetime of medical marijuana payments.
The insurance industry wanted language banning workers' compensation insurers from paying for medical marijuana to be included in the auto bill, the spokeswoman said.
But now a separate workers' compensation bill is expected to be introduced this session as part of an overall effort to clarify requirements under Michigan's medical marijuana law, the spokeswoman added.
"I know from conversations with some of our workers' comp carriers it is an issue they would like to see us pursue statutorily, so it is on their behalf that we are doing that," said
Peter Kuhmnuench, the Insurance Institute of Michigan's executive director.
Kuhmnuench said he thinks the bill for auto insurers stands a good chance of adoption because the Judiciary Committee unanimously passed it last week. Additionally, a key backer of the medical marijuana ballot proposal made it clear that they did not want insurers to be required to pay for the drug, he added.
"We think it looks pretty good at this point in time" for the legislation clarifying that auto insurers do not have to fund medical marijuana, he said. "We hope the same thing for the work comp carve-out because we really think largely its kind of a reaffirmation of the original intent of ballot initiative."
Michigan already prohibits commercial health insurers from paying for medical marijuana.

The Story of 'Operation Orchard': How Israel Destroyed Syria's Al Kibar Nuclear Reactor
Part 2: Syria's Unpredictable President
Tel Aviv, late 2001. An inconspicuous block of houses located among eucalyptus trees is home to the headquarters of the legendary Israeli foreign intelligence agency, the Mossad. A memorial to agents who died in commando operations behind enemy lines stands in the small garden. There are already more than 400 names engraved on the gray marble, with room for many more. In the main building, intelligence analysts are trying to assemble a picture of the new Syrian president.
According to Israeli agents in Damascus, the younger Assad was trying to consolidate his power by espousing radical and controversial positions. He supplied massive amounts of weapons to the Iranian-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon, for their "struggle for independence" from the "Zionist regime." He received high-ranking delegations from North Korea. The Mossad was convinced that the subject of these secret talks was a further upgrading of Syria's military capabilities. Pyongyang had already helped Damascus in the past in the development of medium-range ballistic missiles and chemical weapons like sarin and mustard gas. But when Israeli military intelligence informed their Mossad counterparts that a Syrian nuclear program was apparently under discussion, the intelligence professionals were dismissive.
Nuclear weapons for Damascus, a nuclear plant literally on Israel's doorstep? For the experts, it seemed much too implausible.
Besides, the senior Assad had rebuffed Abdul Qadeer Khan, the Pakistani "father of the atom bomb," when Khan tried to sell him centrifuges for uranium enrichment on the black market in the early 1990s. The Israelis also knew all too well how complex the road to the bomb is, after having spent a lengthy period of time in the 1960s to covertly procure uranium and then develop nuclear weapons at their secret laboratories in the town of Dimona in the Negev desert. They took extreme measures to prevent then-Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein from following their example: On a June night in 1981, Israeli F-16s, in violation of international law, entered Iraqi airspace and destroyed the Osirak nuclear reactor near Baghdad.
Key Phase
The Israelis took a pinprick approach to dealing with the "little" Assad. In 2003, the air force conducted multiple air strikes against positions on the Syrian border, and in October Israeli fighter jets flew a low-altitude mission over Assad's residence in Damascus. It was an arrogant show of power that even had many at the Mossad shaking their heads, wondering how Assad would respond to such humiliating treatment.
At that time, the nuclear plant on Euphrates had likely entered its first key phase. In the spring of 2004, the American National Security Agency (NSA) detected a suspiciously high number of telephone calls between Syria and North Korea, with a noticeably busy line of communication between the North Korean capital Pyongyang and a place in the northern Syrian desert called Al Kibar. The NSA dossier was sent to the Israeli military's "8200" unit, which is responsible for radio reconnaissance and has its antennas set up in the hills near Tel Aviv. Al-Kibar was "flagged," as they say in intelligence jargon.
In late 2006, Israeli military intelligence decided to ask the British for their opinion. But almost at the same time as the delegation from Tel Aviv was arriving in London, a senior Syrian government official checked into a hotel in the exclusive London neighborhood of Kensington. He was under Mossad surveillance and turned out to be incredibly careless, leaving his computer in his hotel room when he went out. Israeli agents took the opportunity to install a so-called "Trojan horse" program, which can be used to secretly steal data, onto the Syrian's laptop.
One of the photos showed an Asian in blue tracksuit trousers, standing next to an Arab. The Mossad quickly identified the two men as Chon Chibu and Ibrahim Othman. Chon is one of the leading members of the North Korean nuclear program, and experts believe that he is the chief engineer behind the Yongbyon plutonium reactor. Othman is the director of the Syrian Atomic Energy Commission.
By now, both Israeli military intelligence and the Mossad were on high alert. After being briefed, then-Prime Minister Ehud Olmert asked: "Will the reactor be up and running soon, and is there is a need to take action?" Hard to say, the experts said. The prime minister asked for more detailed information, preferably from first hand.

Average Customer Review: based on 1 reviews.Rating: LavaCore by Oceanic Trilaminate Polytherm Sleeveless Mens Jumpsuit Review - Scuba Gear Reviews
Been looking at this Lavacore sleeveless wetsuit to wear with my 5mm Henderson and a hooded vest in the Galapagos in late October (pretty cold water at that time of year, I hear). But I dont see anything about whether its a back-zip or has no zipper at all. Would love it if there was NO zipper. Anyone who can help here?
I am from Australia and wish to use for stand up paddle boarding during the winter months (65 deg F). Most of the time i do not intend to be in the water, I will be flatwater & ocean paddling for fitness. I like the idea of the elongated arm openings for paddling. My concern is that I may heat up too quick if I dont venture into the water. On the other hand if I do happen to hit the water I will need some kind of thermal protection. Your thoughts?
Wear as a stand alone full body exposure suit in warmer waters or as an under suit to a standard neoprene wetsuit for added warmth in the cooler months.
Wind-proof middle layer provides anti-wind chill properties and ensures warmth in cold conditions
Water resistant outer layer facilitates fast water run-off and quick drying
Light weight and 4-way stretch makes Lavacore incredibly comfortable to wear
Breathable middle layer allows moisture to be drawn away from the body on the surface
Lavacore is neutrally buoyant
All seams are overlapped during flatlock sewing to decrease water flow
Full gusset incorporated into the underarm to offer exceptional arm movement and stretch
Anti-bacterial inner fleece minimizes odor and eliminates bacteria growth
Extended material on back to keep vests and shirts from riding up
SPF 50+ protection
Close to the skin, this soft internal fleece combined with high 4-way stretch produces the ultimate comfort / warmth / weight ratio, a true leader amongst artificial/man-made fabrics within the water sports industry.

Seam Construction
All of the Lavacore seams are overlapped during flatlock sewing to ensure maximum water integrity and reduced waterflow through the seams. Maximum heat retention is therefore achieved when worn in colder water conditions. See diagram. To ensure maximum integrity and longevity of your Lavacore garment the seam cross-overs on the inside of the suit are locked under the threads of the adjoining seam. The seam construction being doubled and flat-locked allows for maximum stretch out of the four way stretch fabric technology without compromising at seam edges.
Panel Design
The Lavacore range includes female and male specific cut and unique design.
Lycra panels with contemporary lines and graphics are incorporated into all garments.
Full Under the Arm Gusset. This ensures there is no rub or irritation on the sensitive under side of the arms and side of the body. It also reduces restricted movement considerably and allows for extra reach without seam strain and damage.
