Top PlayersColin de Grandhomme
Trent Boult and Colin de Grandhomme cleared to travel to Australia
New Zealand have had a major boost ahead of the first Test against Australia next week with Trent Boult and Colin de Grandhomme both making good progress in their recoveries from injury.
NZC confirmed the pair would travel to Perth with the squad on Saturday having come through a training session in Mount Maunganui on Friday. Boult (side strain) and de Grandhomme (abdominal tear) had missed the second Test against England in Hamilton.
"Trent Boult and Colin de Grandhomme are both making good progress with their injuries and successfully trained today at Bay Oval," NZC posted on Twitter. "The pair will travel with the team to Perth tomorrow."
There still remains a question mark over their participation in the day-night Test at Perth Stadium which starts on Thursday, but the progress is encouraging.
Boult, especially, is vital to New Zealand's hopes of pushing Australia with him potentially being a handful with the pink ball and his side strain was causing the most concern after he picked it up against England in Mount Maunganui.
"I don't know if I'm really confident, but I'm quietly optimistic they're tracking where we want them to be," New Zealand coach Gary Stead said earlier this week.
In Boult's absence, Matt Henry played the second Test against England but New Zealand will need to give serious consideration into introducing the extra pace of uncapped Lockie Ferguson. Tim Southee and Neil Wagner, who has yet to play a Test in Australia, were the other members of the pace attack.
De Grandhomme provides important balance to the New Zealand side. He averages 40.33 with the bat and 29.63 with the ball in 19 Tests. His injury handed a Test debut to Daryl Mitchell who made 73 but went wicketless in Hamilton.

Can the Los Angeles Lakers Get Any More Bizarre?
The Lakers, after firing Mike Brown after five games, pass on Phil Jackson to hire Mike D'Antoni. What's going on in L.A.?
By Sean Gregory @seanmgregoryNov. 13, 2012
Kathy Willens / AP / File
In this Feb. 22, 2012, file photo, then-New York Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni gestures in the second half of an NBA basketball game against the Atlanta Hawks in New York.
Wait a second, Los Angeles. New York thought it had a lock on NBA weirdness.
The Knicks dump their most popular player and sign a bunch of old guys (though, to be fair, New York is 4-0, and the only undefeated team left in the NBA. So that strategy might be sound). New York hasn't seen a championship since 1973. The Lakers, on the other hand, win titles all the time.
This year, they were supposed to contend for another. In the off-season, L.A. acquired Steve Nash and traded for Dwight Howard. The team was going to import the "Princeton offense," which emphasizes sharing the ball and player movement. That move seemed like a risk, as Nash is more effective spending possessions dribbling into the lane, and finding teammates for open shots. Kobe Bryant isn't always fond of sharing. And passing was never a big part of Howard's game.
(VIDEO: TIME Explains – What To Watch This NBA Season)
Still, no one expected the Lakers to start off 1-4. It would have been reasonable to give coach Mike Brown and his new offense time to adjust. The NBA season is long, and no matter how good the players, when you throw together stars like Nash, Bryant, and Howard, they need time to develop chemistry (remember, two seasons ago, when the Miami Heat struggled in the early going?). And over 82 games, talent tends to win out.
But the Lakers are now weird, and fired Brown after just five games. We never loved Brown's creativity as a coach. But the Lakers picked him to succeed Phil Jackson before last season. If you're going to hire the guy and give him all these big-name players, why not give him, say, 10 games to succeed?
This past weekend, it sounded inevitable that Jackson would return to coach the Lakers, for a third time. After all, Jackson, winner of 11 titles, loves nothing more than having a bunch of stars, offering some Zen wisdom to meld their egos together, and collecting championship rings. But it turns out Jackson doesn't get along with Lakers executive vice president Jim Buss, brother of Lakers executive vice president of Jeanie Buss — who has been dating Jackson for years. So the negotiations were bound to be tense.
Jackson said the Lakers gave him until Monday to decide on whether he wanted to coach and he also said he told general manager Mitch Kupchak and Buss that he had "confidence that (he) could do the job." But ahead of the deadline the team made a surprise hire, tapping former Phoenix Suns and New York Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni – who apparently spent last week in an old folks' home near New York, recovering from knee replacement surgery — for the job. D'Antoni, however, is not cleared to travel, so he might not make it out west for a while.
Jackson felt blindsided. His agent felt that he deserved more respect, given that Jackson did win five titles with the Lakers. D'Antoni, in contrast, has never even made the Finals. Jackson's camp also denied reports that he asked to skip some road games if he came back (that February 1 game in Minnesota, why don't we draw an X through that?) That demand seemed insane; we'll pay you millions to coach, but you don't always have to coach. Did Buss, or someone else within the Lakers, or someone in D'Antoni's camp, leak this info, to make Jackson look bad?
And why D'Antoni, anyhow? Mostly, it seems, to mollify Nash, who had his best years in Phoenix playing for the pick-and-roll loving coach. Nash, by the way, just fractured his leg; the Lakers hired a coach, who can't yet coach, to get the most out of the team's point guard, who can't yet play point guard. (He should be back in a week or so, if not sooner). But once D'Antoni does arrive in L.A., and Nash does return, the Lakers may be explosive. Bryant idolized D'Antoni as a youngster; his new coach starred in Italy, where Bryant hung around his father's Italian pro team. They've worked together during the last two Olympics: D'Antoni was one of Mike Krzyzewski's assistants in both Beijing and London.
(VIDEO: How Team USA Won Men's Hoops — and the Entire Olympics)
Less clear, however, is how D'Antoni will benefit Howard, a three-time defensive player of the year, now playing for a coach who doesn't think much about defense. His up-tempo system also hasn't traditionally done much for big men in the post. Gasol, also, seems more suited to a cerebral offense attack. Jackson's triangle, which stressed movement and clever passing in the half-court sets, was a perfect fit. If D'Antoni goes chuck and duck, are Gasol's strengths being utilized?
We'll find out soon enough. But just to keep things bizarre in L.A., here's a dream scenario: D'Antoni needs, say, two weeks to recover and return to the bench. Meanwhile, interim coach Bernie Bickerstaff wins all of his games (he's already 2-0). So D'Antoni would replace an undefeated coach.
That would serve the Lakers right.

Laos-Vietnam Celebrate Friendship Year
A national meeting was held in Vientiane yesterday to mark the 50th anniversary of Vietnam-Laos diplomatic ties and the 35th anniversary of the signing the Laos-Vietnam Friendship and Cooperation Treaty.
At the meeting, Lao People's Revolutionary Party (LPRP) Secretary General and state President Choummaly Sayasone saluted the ties between the two nations, shown through their mutual reliance in the fight against the same aggressors and celebrated by the model relationship and closeness between the two nations.
"In the long fight for national independence, Laos and Vietnam stood united and sincerely helped each other with deep love, trust, and sacrifice," he stated. This unique solidarity was the crucial factor for the victorious revolutions in the two countries and continued model international relationship, he added.
Mr Choummaly reminded the gathering of the strategic vision of the leaders of the Lao and Vietnamese revolutions who anticipated the importance of a united force in the fight against imperialism. As part of this cooperation, the government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam assisted the independent Lao government by sending Vietnamese staff and soldiers to a coalition Lao-Vietnamese battalion established in October 1945.
The people of Laos also made significant efforts to contribute to the Vietnamese effort, including the well-known "Ho Chi Minh trail" on the west side of Phou Luang mountains that aided military action to liberate southern Vietnam.
At the meeting, Vietnamese Politburo member and permanent member of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee (CPVCC) Secretariat, Le Hong Anh praised the relationship between the two countries established by Presidents Ho Chi Minh, Kaysone Phomvihane, and Souphanouvong.
The relationship has only grown stronger as a result of ongoing cooperation by other leaders of the two parties, governments, and nations, which has stood the test of time and ensured the success of national construction and defense in both countries. The enduring friendship of both nations also contributes to peace, stability, and development cooperation in Southeast Asia and the rest of the world.
In the spirit of the Laos-Vietnam Friendship and Cooperation Treaty signed on July 18, 1977, Mr Anh expressed the determination of the Party, government and people of Vietnam that they will make all possible efforts to further consolidate and strengthen the traditional friendship relations, special, solidarity and comprehensive cooperation with the LPRP, the Lao government and the people of Laos.
The meeting was held at the National Culture Hall. High-ranking Party and government officials from both Laos and Vietnam attended the event.
Former Party Central Committee member and former Deputy Minister of National Defense Lieutenant General Ay Souliyaseng shared his experience fighting shoulder to shoulder with Vietnamese soldiers against aggressors during the Indochina War.
Aside from attending the meeting, the Vietnamese delegation led by Mr Le Hong Anh, also called on President Choummaly Sayasone, Lao National Assembly President Ms Pany Yathortou, and Prime Minister Thongsing Thammavong.
There are several activities organised in the two countries to mark the Laos-Vietnam Friendship Year.
Vientiane is celebrating Vietnamese Cultural Week in Laos, which runs from July 16 to 20 and includes art performances, film demonstrations, and a photo exhibition.
A meeting was also organised in Hanoi, Vietnam to commemorate ties between the two nations where Vice President of Laos Mr Bounnhang Vorachit led the Lao delegation.
Leaders from the two countries have also sent greeting messages to each other to mark the special occasion.


Avery went to ECSE today, and came home with a Very Important Hat. He wore it all day long and was very careful to put it away when he went to bed.
Big kids and I tried to get back into the swing today. My biggest issue now is stamina and my back is killing me all the time. I have had this before after abdominal surgery. Your ab muscles aren't doing their part and it throws everything off in your back. Naim and I are still taking short walks and I finally got new running shoes and a sensor to inspire me to go out and do some cardio work with the heart monitor on. I think I have about one more week of "recovery" to go before I can kind of get totally back to normal.
We did a short review of Ch. 12 since it has been so long and then I gave them the test. Aaron missed one of seventeen. Naim missed two. But again, both of their mistakes involve cases of misunderstood directions. Is that because they aren't tested much?
In the afternoon, Naim and I worked on his Moonlight hamster video.


When a couple ends their relationship they faced with a difficult situation. Both have to deal with the decision to take different paths even if it is painful to know.
Some people decide to put an end to their relationship because their partner was unfaithful, or who simply are separated because they realize that the other person has changed and the relationship is not going as initially.
Then we present a list of messages from ruptured relationship. Share these words with couples who ended their relationship, or use them to post them on your Facebook wall or Twitter if you are going through a similar situation.
Among your friends will be many who will identify with these messages from ruptured relationship. Do not think that ending up with your partner is devastating; it may be that the love of your life is waiting for you.
Send your originals Sms, text, text messages, quotes, relationship's rupture phrases, and will be published, others friends will thank you .

Asian Cup diaries: Indian football's goodwill and the Nepali connection
The Asian Cup is a virtual mini-World Cup where press from across Asia, Oceania, Europe and the Americas are present.
The goodwill for Indian football at the Asian Cup encompasses a wide variety of journalists, who spot India on the accreditation lanyard and then start talking positively. The Asian Cup is a virtual mini-World Cup, and press from across Asia, Oceania, Europe and the Americas are present to keep an eye on emerging talents, or looking for angles on stories associated with coaches who have a link to their specific region.
The Indian Super League (ISL) seems to have marked India out as a football country to watch out for. Opposition teams too are talking about how the Indian team must have benefited from playing with big players and coaches who have made their way to India in recent years.
It also comes through from a lot of people working in Abu Dhabi, many from the sub-continent. A security guard at the university campus where the UAE team trains, tells us that he is eagerly looking forward to seeing how India play against the hosts, while a Pakistani gentleman helps the Indian journalists find a taxi, but not before a sequence of questions about why his team is not there in the Asian Cup.
"So, why is Pakistan not here?"
"Because they didn't qualify."
"Why did they not qualify?"
"Because they didn't play well enough."
"Why are they not good at football?"
"Maybe because they spend more time and energy on cricket?"
"Oh yeah, that sounds right."
Most of the taxi drivers I have met on this trip -- an average of four cab rides a day thus far -- have been Nepali. One of them was extremely happy to learn about the Indian team's 4-1 win against Thailand. He was even more excited to learn that three of the goals were scored by players of Nepali origin (Sunil Chhetri, like both Anirudh Thapa and my ride for the day, is apparently a Thapa if one uses his full name), and that the bench has another such player in Vinit Rai. My friend likes his cricket -- Sandeep Lamichhane has become a household name across the world, and hails from a village very close to his. He himself has been to Gorakhpur, where his father and uncle were posted while serving in the Indian Army's Gurkha regiment, though they have moved back to Nepal after retirement.
The same day, the return trip had another Nepali driver, Amrit Thapa, who was more of a football buff. He remembers the Bangabandhu Gold Cup final of 2016 which Nepal won with striker Nawayug Shrestha's hat-trick, and was happy to learn that I had commentated on that game. "Arre sir, agar paisa sahi se istemaal ho toh Nepal har sports mein aage hoga (If funds are utilised properly, Nepal will be world-beaters across all sport)," he says.
The game between Yemen and Iran was a physical, often hot-tempered affair.
When Iran played Yemen on Monday night, the team lists would belie the gulf between the two teams. Only three Yemenis in the starting eleven play for teams back home, as opposed to four for Iran. That is largely because the Yemeni League has been suspended after the 2013-14 season due to the war.
Under Carlos Queiroz, former assistant to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United, Iran have refined their game to the level that they gave a genuine scare to both Spain and Portugal last summer in Russia. The match begins with a spirited attack or two from the diminutive Yemen striker Ahmed Al-Sarori, who plays in the second division in Qatar, but before long, Iran have a 3-0 advantage on the back of a Mehdi Taremi brace.

Stephen Constantine, the inscrutable and infuriating tactician who has never got his due
The game is a physical, often hot-tempered affair, but at the end of it, while the Yemen players sink to their knees, the Iran players are the first to come up to them and help them to their feet and give them a pat on the backs.
"With more energy and focus, they will become a stronger team. This is football -- I think they will come [up]," says Rubin Kazan striker Sardar Azmoun, who was among the first to congratulate Saoud Al Sowadi, a valiant presence in the Yemen goal despite a 5-0 scoreline.
Not all football conversations in Abu Dhabi have been about the Asian Cup, though. A chatty taxi driver from Kumasi, Ghana called Felix, initiated one such conversation by asking what this writer had come to Abu Dhabi for. It wasn't difficult to explain the context to him -- his car was one of several in the city that have been decked with the Asian Cup official rear sunshade.
Felix is a die-hard Manchester United fan, and was deeply upset with his favourite club's decision to appoint Jose Mourinho (not surprisingly, he smiles ear-to-ear of late) because he thinks Mourinho of even the second Chelsea stint was a deeply divisive, unhappy figure as coach. Felix tried his best to get through me about which team I support, and was not convinced that I have none. When at last I confessed that I used to like AC Milan back when Franco Baresi and Paolo Maldini played together, he made a statement that would make me smile.
"Now imagine, if one Indian footballer goes on to become an AC Milan star, how would that make you feel?"

Huge Cloud over Parnitha by stelli (3009)
This is taken from a hill in the North-East suburb of Athens called Anoiksi (Spring). The mountain underneath that cloud is Parnitha.
Mount Parnitha (Greek, modern: Πάρνηθα, ancient/Katharevousa: -is, sometimes Parnetha), older forms Parnes, Parnis (also with the first an accented) is a densely forested mountain range north of Athens, the highest on the peninsula of Attica, with an elevation of 1,413 m and a summit known as Karavola (Καραβόλα). Much of the mountain is designated a national park, and is a protected habitat for wildfowl, first created in 1961. The summit is located 18 km N of Acharnae and about 30 km N of Athens, while the mountain covers approximately 250 km² of land. Other peaks include Mavrovouni (Μαυροβούνι), Ornio (1,350 m), Area (1,160 m), Avgo or Avgho (1,150 m), and Xerovouni (Ξεροβούνι, meaning dry mountain - 1,120 m).
Towns surrounding the mountain include Aspropyrgos (Thria), Fyli, Acharnae/Menidi, Varymbombi, Thrakomakedones, Decelea, Avlona and Aghios Stefanos as well as the settlement of Agios Merkourios. The highway GR-1 aka E75 surrounds the northern and eastern part of the mountain along with the Cephissus river, while the Attiki Odos motorway (GR-6) runs to its south. The mountain offers panoramic views of the mountains northeast of Parnitha, Penteli to the east, the Ymittos to the southeast, the Aigaleo to the south and another to the west; from its summit, one can also see the Thriasian Plain, the Saronic Gulf including the islands of Salamina, Aigina and the North, the South Evian Gulfs and island of Euboea, and most of central and northern Greater Athens. The view during clear days can extend to northern Viotia and the Peloponnese.
Forests of Greek Fir and Aleppo Pine cover all slopes beneath 1,000 m altitude, and are often threatened by forest fires, such as occurred in 2005 and 2007. Above 1,000 m it is covered principally in grasses and shrubbery, and beneath 300 m mainly farmlands and suburban housing to the east. About 1,000 species of plants can be found on the mountain, including crocus and tulips, and the mountain also provides a native habitat to its red deer, which were known in ancient times. After the traumatic event listed below in 2007, they are even more scarce. Several large mines lie to the northwest, and the ore from them was shipped to a nearby factory in industrial areas.
A casino, the Mount Parnes Casino, is located near the top of the mountain and is served by a suspended cable car. Several shelters are also located on Parnitha, the most known of which is Bafi. A series of trails are found around the mountain as well as forest roads, and also on the mountain is Athens' second transmitter, broadcasting radio and television since the mid-1950s, across the range of television channels from ERT, ANT1, Mega, Alter and more, to satellite, including Super Sport, Seven X and Filmnet, and a multitude of radio including ERA Radio, Klik FM, ANT1 Radio, Ciao FM, Rhythmos, Super Sport FM, Top FM and others. The supporting road connection was paved in the mid-20th century.
The mountain was also affected by several major blizzards, including two in 2005 and 2006, stranding cars and closing roads, as well as the cable car.
The name of the mountain dates back to ancient times, when it was under the ancient demes of Acharnae and Decelea.
Parnitha suffered extensive damage from a wildfire on Thursday, June 28, 2007 around the morning and noon hours, continuing for several days and burning approximately 56 km² of land; one of the worst recorded wildfires in the prefecture after that of Penteli (see Summer 2005 Wildfires in Greece). The magnitude of the devastation was unforeseen. A smaller fire had, however, taken place in the 1960s.
The fire consumed forests in two prefectures. Firefighters, helicopters, and planes were brought into action across the mountain area and its edges fighting the enormous blaze,which took days to contain. It spread rapidly with the help of intense winds, and intensified into the northwestern edges of Greater Athens, including both Ano Liosia and towns and villages such as Fyli, near Thrakomakedones, Pyli and both Skoura and Schimatari north of the mountain. From Athens, inhabitants could see the mountainside burning throughout the night. In Schimatari in Viotia, it ruined several acres of forest and businesses. The fire claimed an 80% proportion of the rare Greek Fir and Aleppo Pine forest, 150 animals of the red deer population (an endangered species), birds, and other rare animals. The remains of the green firs and pines are sporadically located around its edges; the scene now resembles that of a devastated forest or an ugly winter. With the loss of its pine needles, one can see the horrifying bareness of the mountain slopes, summit, and valleys. Smoke was seen from most of the Athens area, even the west central and west suburbs, the downtown area, the northern suburbs and almost every part of Viotia, except for most of the western and northernmost portions. The smoke from the massive destruction formed a line that travelled east over Attica, southern Euboea, Chios, to the edge of Turkey, at a distance of approximately 350 km.
On June 30, the fire was mostly contained and warnings of new ones were reduced, as only a few fires were slowly burning sporadically in separate parts of the mountain. The main blaze was completely put out on July 1. At the edges of the burnt parts, several fires slowly continued to burn in sections after June 30, with a slow expansion.
Scientists estimate the area's recovery time may be as long as a century. They predict the effect of the loss will only begin to be felt in the coming years; the air may become a little stale and the already known problems of air pollution and smog in Athens may reappear and intensify. Temperatures could also rise and flooding may become a problem for several years. The Ministry of Environment is currently considering a conclusive reforestation program, while many citizens plan to march on the streets of Athens to express their disapproval of the handling of the situation. More recently, forestation has been underway, and the government will be receiving tens of thousands of trees to be planted around the mountains, most of them from outside the country.
Investigations are still underway as to the fire's cause. One scenario suggests a transformer belonging to a major power line exploded due to overuse and overheating by the 47C heatwave, some days prior to the fire. Another holds that this was one of the many arson attacks that have claimed forested land in Greece over recent decades.

Home Features Praising Arizona: Riding the Grand Canyon State
Praising Arizona: Riding the Grand Canyon State
The great state of Arizona—which combines endless vistas of scenery beyond description with incredible riding opportunities has always been a favorite of mine. As luck would have it, Harley-Davidson and Best Western International hotels invited American Rider on a multi-journalist press junket in Arizona to kick off a new joint marketing venture between the companies and sample some of the possible rides and lodging available through their recently introduced Gold Crown Club International Ride Rewards Program (see sidebar). What better way to reacquaint myself and my traveling companion, Cathi, with the grandeur of the Grand Canyon state than on the saddle of a Harley!
The three-day adventure started and ended in the state's largest city, Phoenix. After flying in, we stayed the first night at the Best Western Tempe by the Mall (yes, that's its actual name, guess where it is). This newly renovated hotel with casual Southwestern ambience offers well-appointed rooms with free high-speed Internet access, cable TV, microwave, refrigerator, and a deluxe continental breakfast. There's also an outdoor heated pool, a hot tub, and exercise facilities.
We went to dinner that night at the Four Peaks Brewing Company in Tempe.
Four Peaks is the largest brewery in Arizona, producing 10,000 barrels annually, and their brew pub is a great place to hang out, relax, imbibe, people watch, and enjoy a tasty meal.
Early the next morning we went to the huge new 45,717-square-foot Buddy Stubbs Arizona Harley-Davidson dealership to pick up the rental bikes and get geared up for the ride. The bikes were in pristine condition and the professional and efficient staff provided an extensive safety briefing before our send-off. Rental prices vary according to model, from $125 to $149 per day. The three-day special rate for the Heritage Softail we chose was $330, plus optional insurance.
Buddy Stubbs' 3,000-plus-square-foot motorcycle museum—which is considered to be the Southwest's premier collection—is housed within the Tempe Harley-Davidson dealership. With more than 100 rare machines from 1903 through the present and over 30 different motorcycle brands represented, this museum is a must-see. Make plans to visit this collection, open at 6:00 PM every Friday and 12:30 PM on the last Saturday of the month.
After final preparations, we merged into traffic and got underway. Once outside the hustle and bustle of Phoenix, the open road brought a sigh of relief as we rolled the throttles on. Our tour route took us north on State Highway 87 past 7,128-foot Mount Ord toward Payson. As we slowly ascended, telephone-pole-sized saguaro began to be replaced by ponderosa pines. We refueled and took a quick break in Payson, a town of 14,000 nestled a mile high on the Mogollon Rim (a 200-mile-long plateau between the Mazatzal and Sierra Ancha mountain ranges).
Continuing north toward 7,000-foot-high Flagstaff, the elevation steadily rose and the temperature dropped, a welcomed reprieve from the triple-digit heat in Phoenix. About 10 miles north of Payson is the Tonto Natural Bridge state park with a lovely waterfall. Plan at least an hour to enjoy it.
Beyond Tonto Natural Bridge, you'll roll through quaint villages with names like Pine, Strawberry, Long Valley, and Dairy Springs, before arriving in Flagstaff. We had lunch at Charly's in the old part of town. Resplendent with antiques galore and cozy fireplaces, this charming restaurant in a historic hotel near the train station features everything from great burgers and sandwiches to salads, steaks and Southwestern fare.
After our hearty lunch, we topped off the gas tank and headed out for the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Following State Highway 180 north, the trip should take about two hours with no stops. The first part of the ride skirts around the tallest mountain in the state, Humphrey's Peak, at 12,633 feet, and also passes the Arizona Snowbowl ski area. This is the highest portion of the ride, so plan accordingly for cool weather year-round and plenty of snow and ice in winter. About 50 miles from Flagstaff, Highway 180 merges into Route 64. Take that northbound route following signs for the Grand Canyon. It's a straight shot from there to where we stayed for the night, the Best Western Grand Canyon Squire Inn. We checked in, dropped off our gear and rode into the park to see the Canyon in late afternoon light.
Sunrise and sunset are by far the most dramatic times to see the Grand Canyon. Make sure to set aside time to do this and bring a good camera. Admission to the Grand Canyon National Park on a motorcycle costs $12 per person and is good for a week at both North and South Rims. The South Rim road only offers a few overlooks, so plan time to be at nearby Hermit's Rest, or Desert View Point, which is roughly 25 miles from the entrance toll booth.
The Best Western Grand Canyon Squire Inn is a three-diamond AAA-rated hotel with 250 rooms including traditional, deluxe and suite accommodations. There's a pool, spa, salon and restaurant. We dined in the Coronado Room on site with an excellent selection of cuisine.
After breakfast the next morning, we took a one-hour flight over the canyon on Grand Canyon Airways in a Twin Otter Vistaliner turboprop that was perfectly suited to the role of sightseeing. Early morning is a great time to go, when the light is dramatic and the sun hasn't had a chance to develop thermal updrafts that cause turbulence. Cost is $119 per person, and well worth it as this was one of the highlights of our trip. The plane flies over areas of the canyon that you can't see from the rim and the view from the air is spectacular. Bring a camera!
Leaving the Grand Canyon, we aimed our Harley's headlight south on Highway 64 to Williams. Along the way we stopped at the Planes of Fame Museum in Valle-Williams, Arizona, which currently has nearly three dozen warbirds and other classic aircrafts on display along with a selection of vintage automobiles.
From Valle-Williams we headed east briefly continuing toward Flagstaff before traveling south on Highway 89A to Sedona via Oak Creek Canyon. The Grand Canyon is 140 miles and at least three hours of travel time from Sedona. Rand-McNally named Highway 89A's circuitous and panoramic path through Oak Creek Canyon one of the most beautiful drives in America.
Sedona is the center of the fabulous red-rock country, with its ancient sandstone hoodoos and spires standing sentinel over the timeless mountains which surround this hideaway resort town. Right after our arrival, we had a tasty lunch on the back porch of the Hideaway Restaurant and Lounge, overlooking the hills that are so much a part of Sedona.
For a pleasant afternoon diversion, we took a Pink Jeep tour into the back country for a close-up look at Sedona's fabulous scenery. There are several tours available. We went on the Broken Arrow, which lasts about two hours and costs $75 per person. Bring a camera, sunscreen and a hat. Expect great scenery and plenty of bumps.
That evening we dined at Savannah Prime Dining, seated outdoors under the stars in a charming garden setting. Entrées include beautifully prepared steak, seafood, chicken, pasta and vegetable dishes. Pricey, but very good; reservations are suggested.
For our last night in Arizona we stayed at the Best Western Arroyo Roble Hotel, which definitely was the nicest accommodation on our trip. The plush room had its own hot tub and a commanding view of the red rocks. A short walk down to the tree-lined creek was a refreshing respite from the desert heat and a pleasant surprise.
On our last day, enroute to Phoenix on State Highway 89A, we stopped at the quaint old mining town of Jerome, which was founded in 1876 and lies 20 miles southwest of Sedona. Located high on top of Cleopatra Hill at 5,200 feet, this former copper-mining town was once known as the wickedest town in the west. In its heyday during the 1920s, Jerome was the fourth-largest city in the Arizona Territory, with a population of 15,000. After the Phelps Dodge copper mine closed in 1953, Jerome became a ghost town until 1967 when it was designated a National Historic District. Today Jerome stands as a tourist magnet and artist community with a population of about 450. A number of the buildings have been restored and more are planned for restoration. Be sure to check out the Jerome Historical Society Mine Museum on Main Street with its historical photographs, equipment and ore samples.
The former Douglas Mansion, designed by James "Rawhide Jimmy" Douglas, is another recommended stop down the hill from the center of town. Equipped with a wine cellar, a billiard room, and steam heat, it's now a museum that exhibits photographs, artifacts, minerals and videos. Be sure to check out the 3-D model of the underground tunnels hidden below the town. Don't miss the Gold King Mine and Ghost Town, a mile north of Jerome. When the Haynes Copper Company dug a 1,200-foot-deep shaft in search of copper, the miners hit gold instead. The site is now a museum where visitors can walk in an authentic mine shaft with antique mining equipment, see a turn-of-the-century sawmill, a circa-1901 blacksmith shop, and the world's largest gas engines.
Our next stop was Wickenburg, a town of 6,000 named after Henry Wickenburg, an Austrian whose quest for gold led to the discovery of the Vulture Mine where $30 million in gold has been unearthed. Just 60 miles northwest of Phoenix in the northern reaches of the Sonoran Desert, Wickenburg's Frontier Street is lined with buildings dating back to the early 1900s, including the old Santa Fe Depot. A few of the Western-theme attractions here are the Desert Caballeros Western Museum, Robson's Arizona Mining World, and the Vulture Mine.
Before finalizing our trip back at Buddy Stubbs' Harley dealership in Phoenix, we stopped by the Chaparral ice-cream parlor in Wickenburg for some cold mid-afternoon refreshments. What a perfect way to add dessert to our desert trip.

A Poincaré-sejtés egy híres matematikai probléma: a topológia egyik sokáig igazolatlanul maradt sejtése volt. Egyike volt a megoldó számára magas pénzjutalommal kecsegtető millenniumi problémáknak. Poincaré szerint a kétdimenziós tér egyenletei átalakíthatók a háromdimenziós térhez is. Más megfogalmazásban: bizonyos egyenletek a kétdimenziós térre vonatkozóan is átalakíthatók úgy, hogy érvényesek legyenek a háromdimenziós térre is.

Története
A kétdimenziós terek topológiai leírását már az 1800-as években publikálták, miszerint az összes lehetséges felület, így a Föld felszíne is, matematikai eszközökkel leírható. Henri Poincaré 1904-ben vetette föl, hogy a kétdimenziós esethez hasonlóan érvényes-e az az állítás, mely szerint bármely egyszeresen összefüggő háromdimenziós zárt sokaság homeomorf S3-mal, a háromdimenziós gömbfelülettel.

Ezt olyan sejtésnek tálalta, amit várhatóan nehéz lesz majd bebizonyítani. Az 1960-as években a matematikusok minden dimenzióra átalakították az egyenleteket, de ezen eljárások közül egyik sem működött három dimenzióban. A probléma valósággal hírhedtté vált, mert bár többféle megoldás született, valamennyi tévesnek bizonyult. Grigorij Perelman, aki 1982-ben a budapesti Nemzetközi Matematikai Diákolimpián aranyérmet nyert, később kandidátusi fokozatot szerzett, 2002-ben közreadta a Poincaré-sejtésre vonatkozó kutatási eredményeinek részeredményeit. Kutatásaihoz Richard Hamilton amerikai matematikus problémamegközelítését használta kiindulópontként. A Poincaré-sejtést 2000-ben az amerikai Clay Intézet alapítványa a hét Millenniumi probléma közé sorolta, amelyeket a 21. század legfontosabb, megoldásra váró matematikai kérdéseinek tartott egy szakmai grémium. A tét egymillió dollár volt.

Az orosz tudományos akadémia Sztyeklov Intézetének munkatársa, Grigorij Perelman 2002-ben igazolta a sejtést, 2010-ben pedig megkapta érte a Clay Intézet Millennium-díját, amit azonban nem volt hajlandó átvenni.
2006 júliusában John Morgan, az amerikai Columbia Egyetem matematikusa és Gang Tian, a Princetoni Egyetem matematikusa szintén publikált egy megoldást a Poincaré-sejtésre, melyet Morgan a madridi kongresszuson elő is adott.

2006. december 22-én a Science folyóirat Perelmannak adományozta a "Breakthrough of the Year" (Az év áttörése) című díjat, amelyet ilyen jellegű tudományos munkáért először adtak ki a matematika területén.

William Thomas Miller (1865 – 6 October 1930) was a Northern Irish Unionist politician.

A farmer he was born in Newtownstewart in 1865. He was educated at the Model School, Newtownstewart; and the Intermediate School, Newtownstewart; and the Methodist College Belfast. He was a member of Strabane Rural District Council and of Tyrone County Council.

He unsuccessfully contested the North West Tyrone constituency in the 1918 United Kingdom general election, losing to Sinn Féin's	Arthur Griffith.
In 1921, he was elected to House of Commons of Northern Ireland for the constituency of Fermanagh and Tyrone, and was re-elected in 1925. In 1929, he was elected for the constituency of North Tyrone. He died in 1930 and at the subsequent by-election James Gamble was elected unopposed.

Due recognition of CITES promoted at IPBES plenary
UNEP in Nairobi (Kenya), venue of the meeting
The first session of a plenary meeting on the means for bringing into operation an intergovernmental science-policy platform on biodiversity and ecosystem services (IPBES) was organized by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in Nairobi, Kenya from 3 to 7 October 2011.
A representative of the CITES Secretariat was able to participate in the meeting thanks to external funding provided by UNEP. The Vice-chair of the CITES Plants Committee participated in the meeting as a member of the Mexican delegation.
CITES-related input was provided at various points during the meeting to ensure that the role of CITES received due recognition, as envisaged under Decision 15.12 of the Conference of the Parties. In particular, attention was drawn to the science-policy interface which already exists and operates on a regular basis between the CITES Scientific Authority and CITES Management Authority in each Party. The decision on IPBES adopted at the 61st meeting of the CITES Standing Committee (Geneva, August 2011), which highlights the need to provide capacity building support to both Scientific and Management Authorities from developing countries, was also circulated as an information document.
A joint statement, developed by members of the MEAs secretariats and chairs of scientific advisory bodies which attended the IPBES meeting, was also made on behalf of CITES, the Convention on Biological Diversity, the Convention on Migratory Species, the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources in Food and Agriculture, the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands and the World Heritage Convention. It noted the importance of IPBES to the work of the conventions as well as the potential contributions of the conventions to the work of IPBES.

The UC Board of Regents meeting Wednesday highlighted the university's progress toward implementing the state audit's recommendations, as well as the impacts of Gov. Jerry Brown's May budget revision.
Last month, Facebook announced new changes to its news feed algorithm, intended to focus users' feeds on more "meaningful" content.


Taken on May 1, 2017 the interesting photo in this post shows a U.S. Air Force (USAF) F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft assigned to the 18th Aggressor Squadron (AGRS) taking off for a sortie from Eielson Air Force Base (AFB), during NORTHERN EDGE 2017 (NE17).
As it can be seen the Viper wears a new aggressor camo pattern: the paint scheme, which is very similar to the standard arctic paint scheme already featured by 18th AGRS Vipers, is one of the two new different paint schemes introduced by USAF Aggressors in the last months.
In fact an F-16 (which actually is shown in the following picture) with the first of the two newest paint schemes was unveiled in Aug. 2016.
Noteworthy, the new paint schemes are just two of the multiple ways USAF Aggressors provide advanced, relevant, and realistic training to air combat forces.
NE17 is Alaska's premier joint training exercise designed to practice operations, techniques and procedures as well as enhance interoperability among the services. Thousands of participants from all the services, Airmen, Soldiers, Sailors, Marines and Coast Guardsmen from active duty, Reserve and National Guard units are involved.

Hello there! I was asked to write a few words for the reissue of God, Forgive These Bastards, a book and album about a man named Henry Turner that was originally released in 2012. That there is still interest in the story is really neat and humbling for me and the rest of the folks in the Taxpayers—especially considering the haphazard/shoestring manner in which we tend to create and release things.
Henry Turner is a fictional character who was dreamed up around January of 2011 when I was living in a storage container in Florida for the winter with the rest of the Taxpayers. One day, I sat outside the storage container to watch the vultures circle overhead, and wrote a song about a schizophrenic guy living on the streets, telling anybody who'll listen that he used to be a major league pitcher back in the 1970's. That song became "Who the Hell Are You?" We started writing more songs about that guy - eventually enough to make up a whole album about Henry Turner.
Then, one day while on tour, I decided a book should be written about him. I thought this would be a neat thing to do because 1) it would give the songs greater context, and 2) it would give flesh and bones to the Turner character. At first I tried to get our friend Keith Rosson to write the book, because he is a real writer. But he had his own writing to work on, so I decided to give it a shot myself.
Somewhere along the line, I started writing the book from the perspective of Turner being a guy that I actually knew in real life. It was exciting. I went to the library and researched some actual historical Turner families from Georgia, and linked the fictional Henry to those families. Strangely, I found out that there was a post civil war senator named Henry Gray Turner who married a woman named Lavinia Calhoun Morton – who, according to the librarian who was helping me, might be loosely related to me. The lineage gets muddy somewhere in early 1800's New York City, so according to the librarian it's tough to say for certain, but it was neat to think about.
The plan became this: we would release the album/book as a tribute to Henry Turner, a close friend who had recently died. There were a few reasons for this. First, it would give even more authority and dignity to the Turner character. Second, it would be an experiment in group psychology to see how people reacted to this person. The hope was that feelings would be mixed – some people would appreciate the voice being given to this damaged and complicated man, some people would find Turner's crimes repulsive and unforgivable, others would be critical of my relationship with this homeless man and feel he was being taken advantage of, and so forth.
All these things happened. There was even an MRR review that demanded the profits (of which there are none, I can assure you – this is DIY punk, after all) be given to Savannah Turner, Henry's (nonexistent) daughter! Pretty funny.
So that is how the whole thing came to be. The book had some typos and the songs had some blemishes, but everyone involved with bringing it to life did a great job, I think. If Turner had existed, I don't know if he would be proud or not.
So that's that, I guess. I hope you enjoy the story! If not, we will try better next time. Until then, keep trying to look out for each other.

Q: How to execute javascript on a webpage using java I am establishing a HttpUrlConnection with a webpage . Now I have javascript snippet that I want to execute on this webpage . How can I do this ?

A: You could try :
    private static ScriptEngineManager mgr = null;
    private static ScriptEngine engine = null;

    mgr = new ScriptEngineManager();
    engine = mgr.getEngineByName("JavaScript");

    Object eval = engine.eval(s); // s is javascript code

A: Since Javascript needs some kind of Virtual Machine to run in - usually provided by browsers or programms which act like browsers (so called headless browsers), you have to use some kind of "browsing engine" (so to say) to run the page in. Perhaps WebEngine may be worth a look.
