There are N children in the kindergarten. Unfortunately, the children quarrel though not often. Each child has not more than three adversaries. Is it possible to partition the children into two groups (possibly not equal), so that each child would have not more than one adversary in his or her group?
The first line contains an integer N, 0 < N ≤ 7163. The next N lines contain lists of adversaries of each child. A line starts with the amount of the corresponding child's adversaries, then the numbers of the adversaries follow. The numbers in each line are separated with a space.
The first line contains the number of children in the smaller group. The next line contains the list of children in the group. The numbers in the second line are separated with a space. If the groups are of the same size then you are to describe the group that contains the child number one. Note that the output may contain the only number 0. If there are several possible partitions it's sufficient to output an arbitrary one. If there's no possible partition you are to output the only string "NO SOLUTION".

Category: 1960s
When Randwick trainer Dick Roden studied the catalogue for the 42nd Annual New Zealand Yearling Sales opening on Thursday 18 January 1968, there was only one colt that he really wanted to buy. Lot No. 27 was being sold by the Trelawney Stud at Cambridge, the property of the two friends, Seton Otway and Neville Souter, and both men knew a thing or two about breeding stayers. After all, each had bred a Melbourne Cup winner: Otway with Macdougal; and Souter with Foxzami. An early September foal, the brown colt on offer was by Alcimedes out of Beehive, a half-sister to both Foxzami and Bali Ha'i, the winner of a Great Northern St Leger at Auckland and later the Queen Alexandra Stakes at Ascot in England. Moreover, this yearling colt also carried some of the Foxbridge blood that had made Macdougal, whom Roden trained to win the 1959 Melbourne Cup, such a potent stayer. There was a sense of déjà vu for Roden as he marked the page in the catalogue, for just two years earlier he had done the same thing when he successfully bid for this colt's full brother on behalf of Stan Fox for 7000 guineas. Registered as Honeyland, he had won the 1967 Canterbury Guineas while still a maiden galloper.
Jefferson Airplane's wild and psychedelic rock music might be caught up in the time warp of San Francisco's LSD summers but the in-crowd quip of band co-founder Paul Kantner – "if you can remember anything about the '60's you weren't really there" – has achieved a life of its own in nostalgic reminiscences about the period. Why do I mention this? Well, I can remember Derby Day at Randwick in 1968 and very clearly – because I really was there. It's just that I wish I hadn't been. I made the annual pilgrimage on that Saturday in October believing Always There to be a good thing in the classic and bet accordingly. For weeks I had rioted in the imaginary opulence my winnings would bring; indeed, I was so sanguine as to my expectations that I had purchased myself a new suit and hat. Rather than harbouring any romantic reminiscences about the stylish chestnut and Geoff Lane's unimaginative ride that day, I still suffer sleep deprivation whenever it comes to mind.
It all began simply enough – the idea was to buy a present for his wife. Stan Fox was sixty-one and his beloved wife, Millie, had recently lost her mother. He figured that a beautiful racehorse might be just the thing to lift her spirits and get her out of the house. It hardly seemed an extravagant gift. After all, the retired coal industrialist was worth a fortune having spent most of his adult life building up a coal mining and haulage company from scratch, and Millie had helped him every step of the way.
1966 represented something of an annus horribilis for the A.J.C. insofar as public relations were concerned. As we have seen, the sport of horse-racing had gradually lost its attraction for the masses in the 1950s, a trend that accelerated during the decade of the 'swinging sixties' – a time of massive cultural and social revolution. It was a time of distortion and upheaval in existing habits and traditions; a time of change which crumbled the cement of old standards into disused rubble and where the fissures between the old and the new generations widened. A permissive rather than a repressive age, it moved to the sound of a new beat. Perhaps it was no coincidence then, that 1966 was also the year the famous nightclub, Romano's, so inextricably linked with the fast and the loose of the racing set, closed its doors for the last time. The end came so suddenly that hardly anybody knew it, although the saddest part was that hardly anybody cared.
In January 1964 Tommy Smith again made his annual pilgrimage to the New Zealand Yearling Sales at Trentham and, as Bob Dylan reminded us that same year, the times they were a-changin'. The early 1960s was a period in which New Zealand studmasters consolidated their domination over their Australian counterparts in acquiring bloodlines of stamina. These were the years in which clear fault lines began to emerge between the two countries, as Australian studmasters became infatuated with the blood of Star Kingdom and Wilkes – fundamentally influences for speed in a pedigree, whereas New Zealand saw the confluence of stout bloodlines with the emergence of fine, young, imported stallions such as Summertime, Le Filou and Alcimedes. In the high summer of 1964 it seemed to anyone intent on buying that elusive Derby winner, Trentham was the place to be; and given that Summertime had sired the three previous winners of the Randwick classic, his was the blood to buy. It wasn't surprising, therefore, that both in his discerning analysis of the sales catalogue, and detailed physical inspection of yearlings, the stock of Summertime came in for careful consideration by the Master of Tulloch Lodge.
Every so often there comes along a racehorse that happens to capture the public imagination. The reasons for the fascination may vary, although in all such instances the ability to gallop is paramount. But many horses win more than their share of prestigious races yet never attain that charismatic aura with the crowds. There need to be other qualities at work as well. It might be the horse's flashy looks or style of racing that grabs the public, or sometimes it might be the flashy looks and style of racing of the horse's rich and famous owners. In fact, all of these ingredients were at play in the spring of 1963 when there emerged racing's quintessential glamour horse of the 'sixties in the shape of a sleek and dapper black colt from Todman's first crop. Truth be told, the aura of romance began on a crisp autumn day in April earlier that same year, when the colt went under the auctioneer's hammer at the William Inglis Easter Sales.
In the spring of 1963 the New Zealand-based stallion, Summertime, achieved what no other sire had in the one-hundred-year history of the A.J.C. Derby. When Summer Fiesta passed the post first at Randwick on that sunny afternoon to give Tommy Smith his fourth win in the race, he also gave his sire a hat-trick of victories in the classic. In retrospect, the decades of the 1950s and 1960s came to represent a golden epoch for influential British and French stallions imported into New Zealand. It was an era that resonated with distinguished names like Ruthless, Fair's Fair, Faux Tirage, Count Rendered, Le Filou, Alcimedes and Agricola. Let it be said that Summertime was up there with the best of them.
Occasionally we need reminding that the unlikely pageant of history was itself once everyday life. I was reflecting on this truism on a Saturday afternoon in 2009 when I deliberately strolled down Eleanor Street on my way to a race meeting at Rosehill. It is a quiet street on the south-western fringes of the racecourse itself, which terminates in a dead-end near to where that busy and modern thoroughfare, James Ruse Drive, verily pulses with noise and speeding traffic.
Anyone attending early morning trackwork at Randwick racecourse in the late 1980s might have come upon a kindly little man performing the humble job of gateman. First-time visitors to the course wouldn't have given the shuffling figure a second glance, but the regulars well knew both his history and his character, which was stamped of nature's noblest metal. The diminutive individual in question was none other than Thomas Walter Hill, who, before tragedy intervened, had been one of Australia's leading jockeys and trainers. Even more significantly for our purposes, however, he had been one of the two central characters in perhaps the greatest drama ever played out in a major race in Australia. The race in question was the 1961 A.J.C. Derby.
A tall, shapely and attractive young blonde with good legs and elegant comportment is guaranteed to turn heads wherever she goes. It has always been thus. And this universal truth was demonstrated yet again at the 1959 William Inglis Yearling Sales when a light chestnut filly with a flaxen mane and tail stepped gracefully into the Newmarket auction ring. She was a daughter of the first-season French stallion, Wilkes, from the outstanding race mare Golden Chariot, bred by John Kelly at his Newhaven Park Stud, Boorowa, northwest of Canberra.

How Black Americans See Clinton Trip
A fairly positive view of Africa tour mirrors president's popularity among US blacks.
By Linda Feldmann Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
James Smith places his paperback book over his knees and flashes a wry smile.
"Clinton's trip? It'll result in some good," says the retired Navy man, enjoying the summery weather in Washington's Lafayette Park. "It'll probably mean more trade agreements - that's why he brought those businessmen along."
Bill Clinton's 12-day tour of Africa, by far the longest visit ever to that continent by an American president, has attracted more attention by African-Americans, like Mr. Smith, than it has among Americans in general, according to a Pew Research Center poll due out tomorrow.
In interviews in Washington and Miami, blacks were generally positive about the president's sojourn, a reflection perhaps of his enormous popularity among African-Americans. Some people were glad Mr. Clinton had taken an extended trip, way beyond the Beltway, if only to get away from his troubles at home.
"I'm glad he had a chance to go out to that game reserve [in Botswana]," says Kathy Brooks, assistant principal of Benton Harbor, Mich., high school, who is visiting Washington. "He needed a little rest and relaxation."
Felicia Long, a security guard downtown, also expresses general support for Clinton and the trip. "They should just leave him alone," she says, referring to investigations into his personal life. "He's doing a good job. You know, I really like him - he seems down to earth."
Throughout his presidency, Clinton has enjoyed strong support among African-Americans - even polling slightly ahead of black leader the Rev. Jesse Jackson last year in a national survey by the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies. Clinton had a favorable rating of 89 percent versus 87 percent for Mr. Jackson.
David Bositis, an expert on African-American opinion at the Joint Center, surmises that blacks in particular might be quick to defend Clinton over his private life, given the threats that Martin Luther King Jr. and other black leaders experienced over their own personal lives.
More about slavery
Clinton's semi-apology for slavery sparked a mixed response among blacks.
Some were glad the president had opened the door to further discussion on this sensitive aspect of American history. Others felt that mere words from a president born decades after slavery ended couldn't possibly do justice to the issue.
"How can you apologize for something you didn't do?" says Robert from northern Virginia, who declined to give his last name. Still, he thinks it's important for white people to face up to history: "That's the only way we can move forward. I'm tired of white people thinking that they're not prejudiced just because they have one black friend. That's garbage."
The comment on slavery "is a first step," says Smith, the Navy retiree. "But it's way beyond apologizing. I don't think it's just for him to deal with. Congress needs to get in there too," he says, though he does not think financial compensation for African-Americans over slavery is appropriate.
In Washington, many blacks - like the population as a whole - weren't paying much attention to the president's trip.
In Miami, most African-Americans seemed more concerned this week about filing their real-estate taxes on time than about Clinton's travels.
Cathy Taylor, a Miami mother of four girls, says Clinton's visit could help him better understand the situations of black Americans. "He needs to know why there was slavery."
But Manny Walter thinks the president's trip is but a diversion that is keeping him from dealing with crises facing blacks in America. "He's trying to get the black population to think he cares about us," says Mr. Walter, a self-employed car assessor in Miami. "But [the trip] is not benefiting us."
"He's got a lot of things he needs to do here instead of going to Africa," says Walter. "I feel we're being cheated. We struggle. We've got drugs coming in, the black men are getting all the prison time."
"[Clinton] did a good thing," objects Jerry Linda, a retired insurance agent in northwest Miami. "It will help both places." She says the president's visit to Africa could send a message of hope to people living in the globe's "most dreaded countries."
"It makes a difference for a head of state to come and pay you a compliment, and that alone lets you know you're being thought of," says Ms. Linda, though she doesn't feel Clinton is "equipped" to talk about slavery.
Still, Clinton's visit could lead to real, long-term benefits for the US and the world, Linda says. The greatest reward of Clinton's trip, she feels, is the message of South Africa President Nelson Mandela.
"Empathy is the only word I can think of that Mandela was trying to impart to Clinton," Linda says. "Mandela tried to get him to be a little more understanding toward Castro."

When we first moved to Southern California, we thought we were in pretty good shape; turns out that "pretty good shape" is a relative phrase. Even the guy bagging our groceries knows his body fat percentage. In fact, the popular gym chain, 24 Hour Fitness (yes, they are open 24 hours a day), originated here. That pretty much says it all.
After a killer leg workout at the gym this past Sunday, we wanted to treat ourselves to a mega-carb meal. Since I had a butternut squash saved and had just purchased some fresh rosemary, I decided to make butternut squash risotto.
I prefer fresh rosemary to dried because its soft needles are much more redolent and its flavor is brighter. In this butternut squash risotto, it heightens the flavor of the squash and balances the pungent blue cheese.
I know some people don't make risotto because it takes too long and the continuous stirring is tedious. Well, I'll let you in on a secret: I've been making risotto for years, and I don't stir it continuously. Malto Mario would be disappointed, I'm sure. But it never seemed to make any significant difference to me. And now Jamie Oliver (in Jamie's Italy) has vindicated us non-stirrers, saying he stirs only intermittently as well.
True, making risotto is not a 10-minute meal. But trust me, it's worth the work (and a few extra reps on the leg press).
I have submitted this recipe to Anna of Anna's Cool Finds who is hosting this week's Weekend Herb Blogging.
Pre-heat oven to 300 degrees; place walnuts on a baking sheet in oven for about 10 minutes, until slightly toasted and fragrant.
Bump up the heat to 400 degrees. Slice squash in half, remove seeds, and rub with a little olive oil; roast face-side down for 40-45 minutes or until tender when pierced with a fork. Once the squash is cooked, scoop out the flesh, and mash it by hand. It will be added to the cooked risotto later.
Meanwhile, heat broth in a saucepan over medium heat, then lower to a simmer.
For the risotto: In a large metal skillet, saute the shallots in olive oil and butter. Add the Arborio rice; toast for about 1 minute. Cook the risotto at a slow simmer, adding heated broth ½ cupful at a time. Stir occasionally, making sure the risotto absorbs the liquid before adding more; just be careful not to let the bottom burn. As it continues to absorb the liquid, it will become tender and creamy. Also, season with some salt as you go along.
I use 2-3 cups of broth for this recipe, but use more or less as needed. It usually takes about 20 minutes for the risotto to become completely cooked; but taste it. It should be wonderfully creamy and thick; it's best al dente, which means it should still retain some firmness when you chew it. At this point, add the cooked squash, half n'half or milk, ½ the rosemary, and some salt & pepper; stir well.
Remove from heat; stir in Parmesan cheese now, as it will melt more slowly. Add some salt and pepper as needed. Most cookbooks suggest adding 1-2 Tbsp. butter at this point, but it's optional (and a lot fewer calories without it). Plate your risotto, topping it with crumbled blue cheese, toasted walnuts, and the rest of the chopped fresh rosemary. Eat right away to enjoy its velvety goodness.
Oh - I might have to reconsider visiting CA - one look at me and I would get the WTF/Body fat looks! But, I would be smiling bright eyed and bushy tailed while eating this fabulous recipe! Squash, walnuts, AND blue cheese...a trio made in heaven.
This looks good enough to eat off the page! I'm sure to try this recipe sometime, but it had better be after my workout at the Sports Club LA (SF)! LA does seem to be the fitness capital! Thanks for participating in WHB.
This sounds fabulous. It's the blue cheese that I think would put it right over the top.
I've only just started making risotto this winter and I have stood and stirred non-stop each time. I'll have to give the intermittent stir technique a try.
yum! although, i must say, i am glad i do not live in LA! So much fitness!
Aw (weep, weep), thanks for the tulip picture! So sweet.
OK. Susan, you live in California now. You don't have to buy rosemary. You can pinch a sprig off a nearby hedge, or you can grow your own plant in a pot. Clear?
Oh my god. First, my dad who lives in L.A. calls to tell me they hit 90 degrees over the weekend. Then, I see your gorgeous tulips. It's enough to give me a serious case of the winter crazies! Good thing your risotto talked me off the ledge... that is seriously one of the creamiest risottos I've ever seen. Thank you so much for the recipe.
Ciao! Thanks for stopping by my blog, and can I just say MAMMA MIA, che bello questo risotto! It looks heavenly. We LURVE risotto in my Roman household. My soon-to-be Roman hubby (after 6 yrs. together, one month and counting!) makes a lovely pumpkin risotto which is probably similar to this since in Italy there's only one word for both squash and pumpkin: zucca!
Ale's what you'd call one of them continous stirring types, but that's probably ingrained in Italian youngsters from birth. ;-) So don't worry, I won't tell about your intermittent stirring habits!
I'm an intermittent stirrer, too. What I find is that the shallower the pan, the more you have to tend it, especially if you're new to risotto-making. After a while, you get a feel for your pans and the different kinds of rice, and then you can walk away for a few minutes here and there.
Your combination of flavors sounds wonderful, I love rosemary - I even have a small vase of rosemary in my apartment and it's been growing beautifully!
I think we're really connected today - tulips are my favorite flowers. Really. I even tried to get some for my wedding bouquet, but it was January (summer here) and hot as hell - I just couldn't.
How come my tulips haven't bloomed yet?
I really need to get cooking some risotto.
I tried once, made it too sticky, and haven't dared since. Maybe you've inspired me!
It's been a while since I made risotto, but I was a constant stirrer back then. I would say that Lydia's comment is right on the mark. A deeper, heavier pan makes less work for the cook.
I'd be willing to go back to my risotto efforts for this one. I love absolutely every ingredient in it. Since I don't belong to a gym, I'll have to go hike a mountain afterwards, but that's OK. It would be worth it!
i grew up in cali and lived there most of my life...the fitness thing did not take with me! i have been accumulating risotto recipes, but this one seems the most delicious sounding by far! the tulip picture is beautiful. up here, north of seattle, they grow tulips, and there is a tulip festival. (coming up soon i think!) the fields of tulips are just gorgeous!
I think risotto is really relaxing to make (and even more so to eat!). Yours looks so colourful!
Thanx a lot for sharing the risotto recipe!!I'm not that great a chef,but love to try out new things every time!!
Chris- Thanks! Risotto makes me happy too.
Anna- Wow, thank you so much! It was a fun entry to submit.
Julie- Intermittent is definitely the way to go!
Rachel-You get used to it. Thanks!
Shelley- Grazie! I'm glad you stopped by. I'm sure Ale's zucca risotto is fabulous.
Lydia- Good point about the pans.
Jeff- Aw,give it a try. Just once.
Patricia-Well maybe we're distant cousins after all, cause my motivation while doing squats was that I could eat a few more spoonfuls of risotto. And tulips always make me smile.
Scott- Give it another try. You won't be disappointed.
Toni- Hike, bike, swim, anything to eat more risotto. Thanks so much!
Cinderelly- Thank you! A tulip festival? Oh, I would be in my glory!
T.W.- Stir less, bike more, that's what I could have called this.
Freya- Thanks and I totally agree.
Jessica- Trust me, it's not that hard. I'm not a chef either.
YUm, delicious. Great choice of combination of ingredients!
I don't stir constantly either ever since trying out Cooks Illustrated's method. With enough broth and the right heat, it just isn't necessary.
That looks wonderful and it's one of my favorite ways to make it.
I love risotto, you can add so many different flavours to it, yours sounds delicious!
Hi Susan! I'll confess - I'm a perpetual stir'er... but it certainly doesn't deter me from making risotto - and the idea of adding butternut squash and Rosemary just makes my mouth water!
I've always been a constant stir kind of girl, more for fear of not doing it right! Thanks for the tip - I'll be a bit more relaxed now.
Is there anything better than blue cheese?!
how did you ever get everyone of my favorite ingredients and put into one dish!!! i am most certainly trying this! funny - i was just saying to myself this morning, "self, i've never made risotto, and i'm very italian."
I love the idea of all these tastes blending together. The squash, the cheeses, rosemary, walnuts--amazing! Also like the thought of cooking risotto without constant stirring. When you roast the squash, do you coat the cut side with any olive oil at all? I know most roasted vegetables fare better if you do.
I saw this post a couple days ago and it reminded me I hadn't fixed risotto for ages. Got the stuff for my sage-fontina recipe to cook tonight. I'll stir less I promise.
Bea-Thanks! It's one of my favorites.
Johanna-The problem is I have to stop myself from indulging too much.;) Your quiche sounds delicious.
Kate-Thanks! I agree. You get a feel for it after making it several times.
Lis-Let's say I don't have the patience of a saint either.;) Thanks so much!
Brilynn-Thanks! I agree. It works with so many seasonal ingredients.
Gilly-Consider it an added upper body workout.;) Thanks.
Lucy-You're welcome! The blue cheese really works well with the sweet squash.
Linda-I'm so glad they're your favorites! As an Italian, you simply must make risotto. Once you do, you'll be hooked forever! I promise.
Terry-So glad you like it! Yes, I do rub olive oil on it. Thanks for mentioning it; I'll add it.
Michelle-Mmmm sage and fontina sounds lovely.
Monika-Just do what I do with my husband--give him a glass of wine and some good cheese, and he'll be happy to stir forever. :) Thanks so much for the compliments!
Jeanne-Okay, I'll cut you some slack this time...;) As far as the tulips go, I think the temps in the 80's and 90's we had last week helped them along. We're usually in the 60's and 70's about now. Thanks so much!
that risotto mmhhmm that get me very hungry!!
and, honestly, your foto are very beautiful!
Susan, I will confess too ... I stir occasionally! As a matter of fact when I bought Jaimie's Italy I too had to smile at the revelation. Adding butternut squash and combining it with rosemary certainly sounds like an explosive combo. Those tulips made my day too! Thanks!
Susan, this risotto must be perfect for me after my Aikido Training, too (I mean if I can be alive and have enough energy to cook anything!) :D. Thanks for a great recipe.
Risotto is the ultimate comfort food in my eyes. I will request for my last meal if I'm able to.
2. Diced, sauteed squash with leeks.
Either way, you can't go wrong. Also, I agree that risotto doesn't need to be constantly stirred. If you've got the heat right, you should be able to get light simmer without having your rice stick. Then you're golden -- like your dish.
I'm not a work-out type, maybe 24 hr diner suit me better, kekee.
Good, then you can eat your risotto qualms-free. :) Thanks!
You know your risotto, so I'm flattered! Ciao!
Meeta-Thanks! I'm so happy you enjoyed the tulips. They're just so cheerful.
Anh-Aikido sounds harder than the leg press. You'll definitely need the carb load. :) Thanks!
Rob-I agree. You can't go wrong with sage or leeks. Thanks!
Gattina-Fantastic! I hope you like it.
Pip-Thank you so much! I really appreciate that.
Wow, this looks wonderful. Butternut squash and blue cheese are two of my favorites.
I love risotto, so any tips on how to make it easier are greatly appreciated! Your dish looks so delectable! Maybe I'll be making risotto this weekend!
that sure is one lovely creamy risotto!
Sher-Hey, I'm all for encouraging more risotto making (and eating). Thanks!
Nice tip, although I had kind of figured it out myself as I never can seem to really stir anything constantly...now I'm reassured! It's OK!
That looks like one delicious dish!
Thanks for the tulips as well. Those are stunning!
Your risotto looks delicious. Nice idea to add squash, blue cheese and toasted walnuts.
I do like the idea of stirring risotto less (but I'm not so keen on working my glutes more...). We just had mushroom risotto the other night - dried Chinese mushrooms that look suspiciously like porcini and chicken stock. At the last minute we decided against adding grated parmiggiano and were not sorry. The risotto was fabulous but I must say I was freaking out whenever we had to stop stirring. What a relief to know that it's okay to let it alone sometimes.
That looks so amazing! What an amazing flavor combination.
I am one of those haters of stirring risotto. I'm going to have to check out Jamie's book because I've heard about this technique before. I love risotto!
risottos I make are so blend compared to yours. I loved the idea of squash+blue cheese (mmmmmmm) and rosemary. I'll definitely try. Thanks for the recipe!
This recipe sounds very interesting with this flavor combination. I'm actually not a fan of blue cheese (I might like it if I could ignore the "blue" and get myself to actually taste it), but I really need to try it.
Elizabeth-Oh, I love mushroom risotto too! Thanks for stopping by!
Burcu-Thanks, I hope you do! Glad you stopped by!
Rachael- Thanks! The sweet roasted squash and nuts give it that needed "boost." You can substitute another cheese, or simply go with grated Parmesan.
Just seeing this entry today since you linked to it. I make my risotto in a pressure cooker and don't have to stir it or wait for the squash to get soft. Sage and Gorgonzola is a nice variation if you get tired of Rosemary and Bleu.
There's something wonderful about Butternut Squash Risotto, isn't there?
Rhonda-I'm so glad you found this. It truly is one of my favorites. Sage and gorgonzola sounds fabulous as well. I'll definitely try it. Thanks!
This looks delicious. I'm not much of a risotto fan, but maybe this combination would work well in a stuffed pasta?

The Phoebus Cartel
March 28, 201912:02 AM ET
Prior to 1924, the average lifespan of a light bulb was around 2,500 hours. But in December 1924, a global organization known as the Phoebus Cartel hatched a secret plan to increase sales by bringing the average bulb's lifespan down to just 1,000 hours. This began one of the first known examples of planned obsolescence.

West Indies vs Sri Lanka | World Cup 2019 | Match 39 | FanFight Fantasy Cricket Preview | Lanka Mathematically Still In
West Indies vs Sri Lanka: We are almost towards the end of the first leg of the ICC World Cup 2019 and the battle for the 3 semi-final spots has become more intense. Though the top 3 spots clearly indicate which teams will move on as they are only a win away, the fight for the fourth team has become the sight to witness, with as many as 3 teams competing for it, after India lost to England in the previous match, keeping the field still open for England, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
LANKA STILL IN WITH A CHANCE?
Well, Sri Lanka is another team which was hoping for a miracle to happen and they would've mathematically still been in contention, provided England lost the match against India. However, as that hope came crashing down, Sri Lanka have barely anything to expect further in this campaign. The 39th match of the ICC World Cup 2019 will see Sri Lanka take on West Indies at the Riverside Ground. The two teams have had quite a similar campaign with absolute disappointing performances. While Sri Lanka have 2 wins to their name in 7 matches, West Indies only have 1. With nothing to lose at this stage for both the teams, this encounter is nothing but a courtesy game for them.
Sri Lanka will look to give it all, who have shown better character on-field than the Windies. Luck has also not favoured Sri Lanka in this tournament, as two of their matches were washed out due to rain. Though both the teams are playing it for pride, it still will be an important game for either side, as they would like to end their campaign on a positive note. Sri Lanka however, can back themselves up, after a convincing win over the hosts England in their previous fixture. However, their happiness was short-lived as South Africa handed them their 3rd loss in the tournament.
West Indies, on the other hand, opened their tournament with a bang, after scoring 421 runs in their warm-up game and winning their first game against Pakistan handsomely. However, that was the only solitary win for them so far. They have been on a losing spree, despite having some of the biggest match-winners like Chris Gayle, Shai Hope and Sheldon Cottrell.

Sri Lanka and West Indies have faced each other in 56 matches out of which West Indies have won 28 games while Sri Lanka have won 25. The Lankans flipped the tally completely in their favour by winning 4 out of 5 games played, while the Windies only managed to win 1 match. In the world cups, however, West Indies have always posed a great challenge to Sri Lanka. In a total of 8 matches played, Windies won 4 matches while Sri Lanka won 2. One match was washed out to due rain, while the other was forfeited by the West Indies, as their cricket body did not send the team to Sri Lanka, due to tensions in the country. Hence, Sri Lanka were awarded two free-points.
Total Matches: 56
West Indies: 28
Sri Lanka: 25
LAST 4 YEARS (APR 2015 – PRESENT)
West Indies: 1
Sri Lanka: 4
FORFEIT: 1 (AWARDING THE MATCH TO SRI LANKA)
There is a very slim possibility of mild showers during the course of the game. The skies will be clad in thick clouds, making no room for the sun. The cloud cover is expected to be well over 70%, casting a gloomy shadow across the stadium. The temperature is expected to hover around the 18 degrees Celsius mark, making for great playing conditions. The humidity will be between 50 and 60 per cent throughout the day.
The pitch at Riverside Ground in Chester-le-Street has a reputation of being batsmen's paradise. The turf may show similar traits in the upcoming game, assisting the batsmen and punishing the bowlers for their simplest errors in line and length. The pitch may mildly support the pacers but on rare occasions. However, this may not be the case in-case the other deck is used.
There are no surprises as to what the team winning the toss, would opt for. The ideal choice considering both sides' history, and pitch's nature will be to bat first, set a hefty total and stop the other team from reaching anywhere close to it. West Indian team struggled in their chasing games, while for Lankans, both the matches they won, were while batting first.
The Sri Lankan team may have to make a harsh and much-needed decision, with letting Jeevan Mendis sit this game out. Mendis has failed both with the bat and ball consistently and shown no promise in all of their games so far. It may be a logical decision for Sri Lanka to bring in Jeffrey Vandersay as his replacement. Vandersay can fill in the place of the much-required leg-spinner in the team. Inconsistent batting has been a major worry for the Sri Lankan side. Karunaratne, who came into the tournament as Sri Lanka's most fierce batsman, failed to put runs in his last two games.
Kusal Perera and Angelo Mathews, have shown promise but will need to be more consistent and push the envelope. Kusal Mendis too will need to rise to the occasion to help his team to victory. The experienced Lasith Malinga has been the torch bearer for Sri Lanka in the bowling department. He has claimed nine wickets so far, which also includes a four-wicket haul. Suranga Lakmal hasn't been able to pick a wicket in the tournament yet and he will need to step up his game.
PROBABLE XI: Dimuth Karunaratne (C), Kusal Perera (wk), Avishka Fernando, Kusal Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Dhananjaya de Silva, Thisara Perera, Jeevan Mendis/Jeffrey Vandersay, Isuru Udana, Suranga Lakmal, Lasith Malinga.
West Indies might look to play with Ashley Nurse, who would most likely be replacing Fabian Allen. Chris Gayle, with two half-centuries in his kitty, still looks clueless in his game plan. He would look to give a good start to the team. Sunil Ambris proved to be a better bet to the team than Evin Lewis, who looked strong against India. Even wicketkeeper Shai Hope still hasn't fired from all cylinders. As for bowling, Nicholas Pooran and captain Jason Holder haven't had a great campaign either. It was Sheldon Cottrell, who has been exceptional for the team in terms of bowling. Oshane Thomas is trying his best with his pace but is also giving away a lot of runs. He should look to contain that.
PROBABLE XI: Chris Gayle, Sunil Ambris, Shai Hope (wk), Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Holder (C), Carlos Brathwaite, Fabian Allen/Ashley Nurse, Kemar Roach, Sheldon Cottrell, Oshane Thomas.

Left Front presidential candidate Colonel Laxmi Sehgal on Tuesday said some National Democratic Alliance parties had 'privately' expressed their support to her, but declined to name them.
"Some NDA allies telephoned me and privately expressed their support to my candidature," Sehgal told a 'meet the press programme' at Delhi's Press Club.
The former commander of the Subhas Chandra Bose-led Indian National Army's Rani Jhansi regiment, however, refused to name them saying it would amount to 'betrayal'.
She described the role of the Congress party and the Samajwadi Party, which supported the candidature of NDA nominee A P J Abdul Kalam, as 'very disappointing'.
Sehgal said besides the Left parties, Chandrasekhar's Samajwadi Janata Party, Ram Vilas Paswan's Lok Janashakti Party, Manipur People's Party and the Socialist Unity Centre of India supported her.
To a question, 88-year-old Sehgal said she was not a 'token' candidate as propagated by some, but very much in the fight. "I still work in my clinic for six hours and take part in social activities," she said.
Asked how she agreed to become the candidate of the Left, which had criticised Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Sehgal said at that time people did not know what Netaji's idea was.
The British launched the propaganda that Netaji was a stooge of the Japanese and the Left forces were against fascism.
When the Left parties came to know about Netaji's ideas, they realised that his first priority was the freedom of the country, she said.
Sehgal admitted that her fight in presidential election was a 'difficult one', but asserted she would fight it out.
The country was passing through a difficult phase, she said, adding, democracy and secularism were being threatened by 'extreme right forces' ruling at the Centre.
Expressing resolve to take a determined stand against such attempts, Sehgal said the Left parties were committed to secularism and democracy.
Criticising the economic policies of the Vajpayee government, she said it was for multinational companies and not for the common people.
Unemployment was shooting up and child labour was on the rise, she added.
To a question on BJP's attempt to redefine secularism, Sehgal said there was no question of redefining it. "Either you are a secular or you are not."

There are no fees for filing Hague applications with either the United States or Cayman Islands central authorities. Attorney fees, if necessary, are the sole responsibility of the person hiring the attorney. Additional costs may include airplane tickets for court appearances and for the return of the child, if so ordered.

Exercising Custody Rights
While travelling in a foreign country, you are subject to the laws of that country. It is important for parents to understand that, although a left-behind parent in the United States may have custody or visitation rights pursuant to a U.S. custody order, that order may not be valid and enforceable in the country in which the child is located. For this reason, we strongly encourage you to speak to a local attorney if planning to remove a child from a foreign country without the consent of the other parent. Attempts to remove your child to the United States may:
Endanger your child and others;
Prejudice any future judicial efforts; and
Could result in your arrest and imprisonment.
The U.S. government cannot interfere with another country's court or law enforcement system.
To understand the legal effect of a U.S. order in a foreign country, a parent should consult with a local attorney in the country in which the child is located.
For information about hiring an attorney abroad, see our section on Retaining a Foreign Attorney.
Although we cannot recommend an attorney to you, most U.S. Embassies have lists of attorneys available online. Please visit the local U.S. Embassy or Consulate website for a full listing.
