|Scott Woods Biography
Courtesy: WSU Athletic Media Relations
Release: 08/01/2010
After three years as the Director of Basketball Operations, Scott Woods was named as an assistant coach in April, 2010 and then associate head coach in September, 2015.
"Scott has been a vital part of our success over the past eight seasons," Donlon said. "He has excelled in all aspects of coaching. Current and former players have great respect and care for him because of his knowledge, loyalty and service to their betterment. Scott is going to make a terrific head coach one day."
Woods has been with the Raiders for eight seasons, including the last five as an assistant coach under Donlon. The Indiana native has helped the Raiders to two post-season appearances in 2013 and 2014, as WSU has received nine All-Horizon League honors during that time. Wright State has posted 148 wins with Woods on staff. He was hired as Director of Operations in 2007 by former WSU head coach Brad Brownell after coaching stints at Saginaw Valley State, Manchester College, and DePauw University.
Woods, from 2004-07, played a large role in reviving Saginaw Valley State, a Division II program. The 2006-07 SVSU squad recorded its highest conference placement since the 1997-98 campaign. While an assistant coach at Manchester College from 1998-04, Woods was part of a staff that reached the 100-win mark faster than any coaching staff in school history. Manchester won two conference titles and went to the 1998 Sweet Sixteen during his 6-year tenure.
Woods graduated in 1993 from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. In 2003, he was inducted into Rose-Hulman's Athletic Hall of Fame.

ON BASKETBALL | Miami Heat President Pat Riley has always given off the ultimate air of cool for more than three decades. And at no point during this critical free agent period for the franchise has he given off the impression that he is worried about the dissolution of a dynasty with the loss of LeBron James or Chris Bosh (Dwyane Wade is a Heat lifer who isn't going anywhere).
But Riley had better hope his calm demeanor and charm will be able to keep the Heat together because the prospect of beginning another rebuilding effort around an aging and fading Wade is more gruesome than anything he has encountered in nearly 19 years in Miami. And, that includes the 15-win season in 2008. At least then, Wade was in his prime and set to spend the Olympics laying the foundation for a free agent super team.
Riley will reportedly sit down with James Wednesday and have a discussion that will likely go a long way toward determining if the four-time league most valuable player stays in Miami and attempts to make good on the seven or so championships he claimed he'd win with Bosh and Wade. As he stated in that bombastic news conference following the Heat's NBA Finals loss to San Antonio, Riley won't be able to win over a championship-starved James with a bag full of rings because James has his own rings.
Instead, Riley has to win over James with a plan. His moves to bring in Josh McRoberts and Danny Granger could hardly be considered massive upgrades but the fact he used salary exemptions — something that's only available to teams that spend above the salary cap — to retain both players revealed a certain amount of confidence that his all-star trio will be back.
But the specter of a James and Bosh defection lingers. And for the first time since assembling the first team in 27 years to make four straight trips to the NBA Finals, Riley faces some serious threats to the kingdom he intends to maintain on South Beach. Keeping James goes without saying, but Riley hasn't offered much indication about where he is leaning with regard to added reinforcements, and the storyline of a heartwarming return to Cleveland has dominated the headlines since Sunday.
If James does stay, Bosh is expected to return. Bosh has never quite seemed open to prospect of leaving Miami, since he was adamant about being willing to return to Miami for a discount to continue chasing championships with James and Wade. He opted out of a contract that would've paid him more than $40 million over the next two years so that the Heat could find some help in free agency.
But now the Houston Rockets are testing the value of potentially playing with James. The Rockets have reportedly offered Bosh a four-year contract worth $88 million that will give him the chance to form a new all-star trio with Dwight Howard and James Harden and play in his native Texas — where, like Florida, he wouldn't get taxed on his income. The lefty big man has a difficult decision to make.
James has made it known he will take no less than a maximum-salaried contract starting a $20.7 million in the first year — a discount considering his actual value to a franchise's title hopes and bottom line. In order for the Heat to make that happen and find the necessary complementary pieces, Wade and Bosh would have to take significant pay cuts — especially since the new collective bargaining agreement prohibits the Heat from spending above the $4 million luxury tax apron, meaning it is operating on a hard cap of $81 million next season.
Playing with James increases the chances of winning a title and also creates somewhat of a protective shield with his status as the "easiest target in sports." Bosh was still maligned for much of his time in Miami but he was usually absolved from the blame until the Heat lost in five games to San Antonio last month. Few remember that Bosh failed to score in Game 7 of the 2013 NBA Finals … and it didn't matter because the Heat won the title.
But does the security of deep playoff runs override the loss of $5 million — or more — a year in salary? The last time Bosh decided to team up with James, he came out ahead with the biggest contract. That won't happen this go around.
And with James not providing any assurances about his return, Bosh has no choice but to consider the available options. If Bosh decides to leave, the Heat becomes a less attractive destination. Carmelo Anthony has been rumored as a possible replacement for Bosh, but Miami would have to dip below the cap and lose its exceptions to make that happen. Given James's salary demands, the cap hold on Udonis Haslem and the money already set aside for McRoberts and Granger, Wade and Anthony would have to make a huge sacrifice in order to make it happen. And with big money already on the table in New York and Los Angeles, Anthony has better options than Miami.
Absent Melo's monetary concessions, the Heat would have to use Bosh's salary slot to sign two good players instead of one great one and hope that more depth would suffice with James leading the way. But if James jets, too …
Right now there's nothing more than a possibility that Bosh, James or both don't return to Miami. But it's a very, very dark possibility.
Here's the Heat roster right now if James and Bosh depart: Wade (because no other team is going to pay him what an indebted Miami can and inevitably will), McRoberts, Granger, Norris Cole, Justin Hamilton and Shabazz Napier. The free agent market isn't going to replenish losses of that magnitude. And Miami doesn't have attractive assets it could afford to trade. The Heat could go from a four-year NBA Finals streak to a black hole.
So, Riley's task is easily stated if not easily executed. To maintain his kingdom and his ever-present cool, he needs to keep James, Bosh and Wade together.

[N.C. STATE-PORTLAND 1-2] Visiting Portland got goals from Drew Chrostek in the second minute and Ryan Luke in the 63rd to beat No. 15 seed N.C, State, 2-1, in an NCAA second-round game on Sunday afternoon. The Pilots advance to the third round where they'll face No. 2 seed Virginia on Sunday in a rematch of their season opener.
"We got off to a great start," UP coach Bill Irwin said. "N.C. State
is a very good side and they made chances. But we defended very well and made our own chances. The early goal was big."
Chrostek wasted little time as he scored his first collegiate
goal barely a minute into the game. Chrostek took a corner from Jarad vanSchaik and buried a shot from the top of the box into the top-left corner of the net.
"We worked on our set
pieces all week and we caught the defense sleeping," said Chrostek. "It's very exciting to score my first collegiate goal and that was an ideal way to start the game."
The Portland
(12-5-5) defense was able to withstand an aggressive NC State (13-7-7) attack until the 59th minute of the second half, when Akil DeFreitas equalized. Chrystel Bakong fed an unmarked DeFreitas in
the left side of the box. DeFreitas then had no problem finishing into the right side of the net to tie the score at 1-1.
But Portland was not to be denied as Luke scored only
moments later on UP's first shot of the second half. The play was set up by Collen Warner, who had possession in the right flank, made a move around a defender and sent a perfect ball towards the
far post. A composed Luke finished with a header into the right corner.
"Once the ball is at his feet, I know Collen has great skills," said Luke. "When he had his guy isolated, it
was my goal to be in position in front of the net. It was a battle and we knew we were going to have to fight the entire game."
The Wolfpack had no answer as the Pilots would hold
on with stingy defense and a great performance between the pipes by UP freshman goalkeeper Justin Baarts, who was making his first career start and playing his first significant minutes.
Portland's usual goalkeeper, All-WCC First Team selection Austin Guerrero, was forced to sit out due to a receiving a red card during UP's first-round win at New Mexico on Thursday
"It was a smooth transition," Baarts said of his team's adjustment to a new keeper. "Our coaches had us prepared."
Baarts finished with three saves, including
an acrobatic, diving save on a hard shot by Lucas Carpenter in the 53rd minute.
"I was set when he hit it and I knew I had to make a save," said Baarts. "I got there and got a hand
on it."
N.C. State held a 15-6 advantage in shots, while UP had a 6-5 edge in corner kicks.
The win sends the Pilots to the third round for the first time since
2001. It also gives them a chance at redemption as Virginia opened the 2009 season with a 3-0 win over the Pilots at Merlo Field.
Late Herrick goal sends Terps to Sweet Sixteen
[PENN STATE-MARYLAND 1-2] Defending champion Maryland moved into the round of 16 of the NCAA Men's Tournament for the eighth straight year with a 2-1 win
at No. 7 seed Penn State on Jason Herrick's late goal.
Herrick scored with 4:05 remaining to lift the Terps against a Nittany Lion squad that was
undefeated at Jeffrey Field in 2009.
Penn State, who returned to the NCAA Tournament for this first time since 2005, came out firing in the first minute of the match. Corey Hertzog had a
good look at goal after a cross from 2009 Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year Jason Yeisley, but his header went high in the first 45 seconds.
Hertzog tallied his second of six shots in
the first half shortly after when he drew Maryland keeper Zac MacMath out of the box. His shot sailed right of the post.
Cortes notched the Terps' first legitimate scoring chance at 15:33
when he one-timed a solid shot directly into the arms of Penn State's keeper Warren Gross. Hertzog struck again at 21:09 when he shot a ball cross the box past MacMath to the left but Kevin Tangney
made a great goal line stand to thwart the Nittany Lion drive.
Jason Herrick started Maryland's first scoring drive when he received a ball at the top of the box and shuffled it over to
Casey Townsend. Townsend then passed the ball to Drew Yates, who crossed the ball to an open streaking Billy Cortes on the far sideline. Cortes took two dribbles and blasted the ball past Gross for
a 1-0 Terrapin lead at 24:19.
MacMath, whose father Gary played for Penn State in the late 70s, showed why he was tabbed the top keeper in the ACC this season with two huge saves with
less than two minutes remaining in the first half. Hertzog's close-range strike went off a sliding MacMath and rebounded back to Hertzog, whose rapid fire shot was saved again by Maryland's
sophomore keeper.
Penn State tied the game early in the second stanza after Andres Casais' free kick found the head of freshman Brian Forgue who put his first career shot in the back of
the net at 48:23.
After a seesaw remainder of the second half, Herrick tacked on his seventh game-winner of the year when his header snuck past Gross to his right with 4:05 left in the
second half. Cortes was credited with the assist, giving the junior a career-high three points for the match.
"I'm just real proud of the character and championship fiber that our team
showed today," head coach Sasho Cirovski, who tallied his 250th career win Sunday, said. "I think we had to do that to win and they found a way to get it done. We look forward to the challenge at
Maryland moves on to face No. 10 seed Harvard next Sunday in Cambridge, Mass.

I was driving on a street in Bellingham and it went from 25 mph to 35 mph. The police said he clocked me at 35 (via radar) in the 25 zone. the address on the ticket - I went back later and checked - is in the 35 mph zone. I plan to contest it and ...
As Mr. Huff said, you really need to get the police report. Maybe the officer's report indicates that you were speeding in the 25, and that by the time the officer pulled you over your vehicle had already entered the 35 zone.
Also, if you are asked any questions about the incident you could be faced with the choice of either presenting evidence against yourself (not a criminal case so no 5th amendment rights here) or to lie to the judge (which is a crime).
I recommend hiring an attorney. The attorney will most likely be able to attend the hearing on your behalf (hard for the judge or prosecutor to ask you questions if you aren't in court!), they will probably be able to make legal motions in addition to the issue you raise about the 35 vs. 25 mph speed limit.
If you have any questions give me a call and I would be willing to give you some advice, and certainly more than willing to represent you if you want to talk about hiring me.

does the court hold the registered owner responsible if the owner cannot , or will not, identify another person as driver?
RCW 46.63.075 provides that the registered owner is presumed to be the person in control of the vehicle at the time of the infraction.
This same statute also says that the presumption (that the owner was driving) can be overcome if the owner certifies under penalty of perjury that the vehicle was either (1) stolen, or (2) in the care, custody, or control of another person.
Nothing in the language of the statute requires you to name the other person, but that isn't to say that a court will not try to ask.See question
I was going 47 in a 35 MPH zone and my ticket is $154. I realize that I wasn't supposed to get another ticket within a year's time frame or I will get penalized for both... In my 5 years of driving, this is my 2nd ticket.. does that work in my fa...
A good attorney will be familiar with the court holding your contested hearing and should be able to give you some general advice such as whether or not a prosecutor will be present.
Your overall clean driving record could potentially benefit you, depending on where you received your two tickets. The best option would be to have the new ticket dismissed to prevent it from affecting your old ticket. However, there are other options available that can prevent you from having one or both tickets on your record.
I have used at least two other methods to prevent tickets from hitting my clients driving record in similar situations. If you want to know more, give me a call at (206)724-2436 for a free consultation and I will share at least one of my methods with you.See question
I exited 1-90 heading toward Roslyn. The speed limit sign is placed within 15 feet of the off-ramp, and I missed it when I made a right turn north. I was going 45-50 mph or so, which is normal for a highway like that, when he jumped out from the...
Given the speed you are accused of you should certainly request a contested hearing and try to get the ticket dismissed or reduced.
Since you were on I-90 in Roslyn I am assuming that your hearing will be in either the Upper or Lower division of the Kittitas County District Court, or at least somewhere in that area. Fighting tickets in Kittitas County can be difficult, so you should consult with an experienced attorney about your case.
In Washington, the officer is not required to show you the results off of the radar or laser "gun" that they used to determine your speed. Furthermore, you seem to admit that you were traveling 45-50 mph in a 35 mph zone. I understand that you could see the 50 mph sign, but you had not reached it yet. If a prosecuting attorney is present and you choose to fight the ticket yourself they could call you as a witness and you might actually end up hurting your case more than helping. If you hire an attorney you often do not need to attend the court hearing, and can avoid being a witness against yourself.
Many attorneys are available for a price similar to the fine on your ticket, and most will offer a free consultation. Feel free to give me a call if you have any questions - (206)724-2436.

Is there any way I can get this ticket reduced since it's my third traffic violation this year?
Every ticket is different. No attorney can honestly tell you they can get your ticket dismissed with this little information. There are too many variables - what law enforcement agency gave you the ticket? Was the cop using a speed measuring device like a laser or radar gun? Or did they pace you with their car or motorcycle? Maybe an airplane was used to determine your speed.
In some courts prosecutors are present, and the attorney might have the option to negotiate a reduced charge for you. In other courts there is no prosecutor, and your attorney will try to make legal motions to limit the evidence, or otherwise argue that the evidence is not sufficient to show that you committed the infraction.
A good attorney will know the courts in your area and be able to answer some general questions about your case. However, to give a specific legal opinion the attorney will need to see the discovery in your case, which includes at a minimum a copy of the ticket and a copy of a report written by the officer who issued the ticket.
GIven the speed you were traveling and the fact that this is your third ticket this year, I highly recommend that you speak to an attorney who handles traffic infractions before proceeding further with your case.
I was issued a speeding ticket that I believe was unjustified. There are several reasons why I believe the ticket was wrongfully issued, and I have questions and major concerns that another car was clocked instead of mine (I have a witness). I m...
I have a feeling that the paper you sent in was a request for hearing by mail. Many courts will give you the option to write a letter to the court explaining why you think you did not commit the infraction, rather than taking the day off of work to appear in court before a judge. Generally, you cannot appeal the judge's ruling in your case if your hearing was conducted by mail.
It sounds like you were confused as to the purpose of the letter, and that may be a sufficient reason for the judge to grant a motion to vacate the committed finding and set your case for a contested hearing again.
I would certainly recommend speaking to an attorney about this situation if you are actually serious about getting the ticket off of your record. Part of the reason that you are in this situation is that you are not very familiar with the legal system, and you need more advice than someone can give in this type of forum.
The officer got me on Lazar radar and showed the readings to me. Is this worth fighting?
Any ticket is worth fighting, but the Driver's License number issue is probably not going to get your case dismissed. IRLJ 3.1(d) allows Judges to overlook technical defects in the ticket unless the defect is the type that tends to prejudice the defendant.
There are a number of other ways to get your ticket dismissed or otherwise prevent the ticket from showing on your driving record with the Department of Licensing. The issues are too numerous to mention, and judges do not always agree on which issues merit a dismissal.
Feel free to give me a call at (206)724-2436 if you have any questions you need answered.

Got charged with going 102 in a 55
It sounds like, as of right now, all that you received was an infraction for (allegedly) going 102 in a 55 mph zone. If a prosecuting attorney reviews the case for some reason, they would likely charge you with reckless driving.
You could go to jail. Mr. Swaby pointed out the maximum penalty of 364 days in jail and a $5,000 fine. Keep in mind that most people do not receive anywhere near the maximum unless they have prior criminal history, but each case is different and you should speak with an attorney about your case to get specific advice.
If they have your picture (and/or video) is there any way to get out of it or get it reduced? Is it worth hiring an attorney for or should I just pay the ticket? Thanks!
It is possible to get out of a red light ticket. Traffic attorneys make legal motions to limit the amount of evidence at a hearing. If the attorney is successful then generally the case is dismissed.
Red light tickets are like parking tickets in that they do not appear on your record with the department of licensing, so some people simply pay them rather than hiring an attorney. A few attorneys offer their services for equal to or less than the cost of the photo tickets, but most attorneys charge more than the face value of the ticket so generally clients simply pay the fine since it should not affect insurance rates.
I have had clients hire me for red light tickets based on their belief that they did not commit the infraction. A few have said that they would rather pay an attorney than pay the city. Really it is a personal decision.
I was driving to the DMV to get my Washington drivers license. On the way there I got a speeding ticking on my British Columbia license. Will this appear on the record of my new Washington license? What are the risks if I do not pay it?
If you fail to pay the traffic infraction, you run the risk of the Department of Licensing suspending your new Washington License. If you are pulled over on a suspended license, then you will be charged criminally (rather than a civil infraction).
I advise that you pay the ticket, or consider hiring an attorney who practices in the area of traffic infractions. I have handled hundreds of tickets, and would be willing to consult with your for free if you have any questions. Feel free to call me at (206)724-2436.

Adjusting hardwood across a floor
I have a room with two openings on one wall that is conspicuously in line-of-sight. So I want to start there, with flooring aligned with the openings. Opposite wall is fifteen feet away and is obscured by furniture and curtains. But it's an outside wall.
Thing is, across the room there is a three-inch difference between the distances of those two walls.
If I, instead, start at the outside wall the wood won't align with the room openings. If I start at the openings, it won't align with the outside wall.
What I thought I might do is start at the openings, but after a couple feet start skewing the boards slightly by placing a dime between them at the long end, concealing the gap under the baseboard as best as I can.
Would this work?
Is there, perhaps, a better way to adjust floor board alignment as you march across a room?
Am I causing a problem that is worse than what I'm trying to solve?
One saving grace is that this is character hickory, so the board lines are obscured a bit by the strong variation in color within boards.
I'd start along the longest wall and work my way over to the doorway.
The openings are more than a doorway. The niche is ten feet wide or so and will have an entertainment center in it, so I'm afraid that the flooring not crossing straight across the opening would look...off.
Whew! Only two hours of swearing, but I got it. Ended up using a laser sheet to align the flooring. That middle 10-inch wall end was actually twisted. The entrance wall to the left was skewed about an inch over four feet. Gah! What a mess to align straight board to.
You don't notice any of this when there's just carpeting.
At some points, I have to take expansion credit for undercutting the drywall. At other points, the base molding and shoe barely cover. But to the eye, the floor and walls appear to be as aligned as they can be.
I even tried shooting a laser line down the grout lines in the adjoining entry hall, but that was merely an exercise in frustration.
On the plus side, I got to play with one of my Xmas gifts.

text: Jai Courtney: I'd love to reprise the role of Jack McClane RadioTimes.com caught up with the actor who plays John McClane's son at the premiere of A Good Day to Die Hard Comments Written By Ellie Walker-Arnott 12:15 PM, 08 February 2013 Jai Courtney, star of A Good Day to Die Hard, has said he'd love to be involved in a future Die Hard film. The fifth instalment in the Die Hard action film franchise premiered last night in a rainy Leicester Square, and RadioTimes.com were on hand to catch up with Die Hard's newest star Jai Courtney. So what was it like joining the franchise and working alongside Bruce Willis? "It was fantastic," said Courtney. "You don't dream of this sort of thing happening so to get the call and be welcomed aboard was truly wonderful... we just had a ball." With a sixth Die Hard film as good as confirmed, would the 26-year-old star be willing to join the cast again? "Absolutely," said Jai. "It's a very flattering idea. If I'm asked to come and reprise the role of Jack McClane I would love to." Courtney plays Jack, John McClane's son. A Good Day to Die Hard sees John travelling to Russia to try and help Jack when he thinks he's in trouble, but it soon turns out Jack is actually a CIA operative and the pair find themselves in the middle of a nuclear weapons heist...

text: TROY, Mich., Jan. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Meritor's Aftermarket business has been awarded the prestigious 2012 North American Industry Product Quality Leadership Award by Frost & Sullivan for the company's remanufactured brake shoes. "We recognize that the production of high quality remanufactured brakes is a constant challenge for the heavy-duty trucking industry," said Janardan Damani, research analyst, Frost & Sullivan. "The North American remanufactured brakes aftermarket and its participants currently face several hurdles because brakes not only require immediate replacement but can also cause irreversible, extensive damage to trucks and increase the risk of accidents. "A major concern for the participants of remanufactured brakes has been imports from low-cost countries. However, due to the high cost of testing and product development on the manufacturer side, low-cost countries typically feature compromises in design and product life. Second, price is the most important competitive factor in this market, and it complicates suppliers' efforts to improve their products and develop unique advantages." The award was announced here at the industry's largest event, Heavy Duty Aftermarket Week in Las Vegas. "We are extremely proud of this recognition for our breakthrough product, but more than that, we're so grateful that we could respond to our customers with a product that works and addresses a long-standing problem in brake shoes – rustjacking," said Terry Livingston, general manager, Global Product Management and Shared Services, Aftermarket & Trailer, Meritor. According to Frost & Sullivan, "Meritor stands out from the crowd for its leading position in providing innovative braking solutions for original equipment manufacturers of trucks. Leveraging its global production base and supply chain, Meritor has established itself as a leader in brake (shoe) (re)manufacturing." More than 15 million Meritor remanufactured brake shoes have been sold to North American truck operators since it introduced them in the spring of 2009.

Reasoning About Actions and Plans discusses approaches to a number of the more challenging problems in reasoning about the future and forming plans of action to achieve their goals. Reasoning about actions and plans can be seen as fundamental to the development of intelligent machines that are capable of dealing effectively with real-world problems.
This book comprises 17 chapters, with the first delving into the semantics of STRIPS. The following chapters then discuss a theory of plans; formulating multiagent, dynamic-world problems in the classical planning framework; and a representation of parallel activity based on events, structure, and causality. Other chapters cover branching regular expressions and multi-agent plans; a representation of action and belief for automatic planning systems; possible worlds planning; and intractability and time-dependent planning. The remaining chapters discuss goal structure, holding periods and "clouds"; a model of plan inference that distinguishes between the beliefs of actors and observers; persistence, intention, and commitment; the context-sensitivity of belief and desire; the doxastic theory of intention; an architecture for intelligent reactive systems; and abstract reasoning as emergent from concrete activity. This book will be of interest to practitioners in the fields of cognition and artificial intelligence.

text: You can make anything sound bad in a headline. Actually, they were working all night in London on Madonna's new album. Madonna is 48 years old now. God, I'm so old. I actually went to the Like A Virgin tour. It's been a long time since anyone thought of that and Madonna in the same sentence, but back then. Well no one thought it back then either, but at least she could try and convince you and make it somewhat believable. I also actually liked the movie Desperately Seeking Susan. I know, I know. Looking at this photo of Madonna, I think it's time for her to stop working all night. Here is some old school Madonna. Borderline is not my favorite song by Madonna, but it's right up there.

Early Voting Ends
More Houstonians have voted early than ever before.
Harris County Clerk Stan Stanart says by the time early voting ends Friday, over 80-thousand early votes will be cast, "We are actually breaking records, it is higher than it ever has been."
Stanart says the high numbers of early voters is attributable to the new voter ID law, "I think this campaign to help bring awareness of photo ID out has actually helped to some degree to awareness for the voters, so they turn out to vote."
Not only are Harris County residents early voting at the 40 early voting locations, but also over 20-thousand votes have been cast by mail-in ballots. Stanart says the deadline to vote early is 7PM Friday night, "...as long as your in line by 7PM you get to vote."

Last summer, I asked a colleague to go to the South of France with his family for a travel piece. When I read his story - a litany of traffic jams, costly excursions, crowded beaches, blazing heat and even a forest fire - I felt moved to apologise for sending him there. He was perplexed. 'Why?' he asked. 'We had a fabulous time.'
In fact, he seemed to have captured what high season was all about - mayhem but fun. Of course, if you have a family or work in education, you may not have a chance to see those holiday destinations at any quieter time. As Observer travel editor Jeannette Hyde wrote here last week, this leads to much righteous indignation from parents who can only go away when prices are highest. And they have to pay through the nose for all the sprogs too, while those of us unburdened with kids can swan about for half the price whenever we fancy.
And yet, for all the snotty love of secluded beaches, an undiscovered island, a private villa, there is an awful lot to be said for being in the thick of the holiday crowds. Turn up at the seaside now and you'll feel you've joined the biggest party going; try it on a Tuesday in autumn and you'll want to throw yourself off the pier.
It's something that the French seem to understand. The holiday traffic jam across the Channel has been firmly embedded in their psyche since the dawn of mass motoring, with annual record-breaking tailbacks on the main roads south. This year was no exception, despite the fact that motoring organisation Bison Fute had been warning drivers for ages exactly which day would be the biggest nightmare.
Predictably, last weekend saw 400km of queues heading down to the Med. Avoid it? Non, monsieur - it was clearly the day to travel.
High season is fiesta, party time, the only time to go. August in the office is a dismal month: doubly so, incidentally, for travel journalists who generally go abroad at other times, and now watch colleagues muscle in on their patch (possibly how John Simpson might feel if everyone suddenly went off to liberate Kabul). Resorts are sunny and buzzing: kids can run off and make friends, and reps, hotels and waiters have yet to become completely jaded for the season.
Off-peak months may be cheaper and quieter, but parents and teachers who covet a holiday outside busy times should be careful what they wish for. Think theme parks: queue up for hours among excited crowds and the ride will match your anticipation. Do it alone and you're just foolishly hanging upside down all day with a headache and mild existential crisis.
I'm still haunted by a two-weeks-for-one deal in Crete that I booked one October. Cheap, yes; quiet, yes; secluded, yes; utter misery, you bet. A couple of the other villas in our small coastal complex were occupied, but by day three the bar had given up opening for the season, and come the evening we'd be bleakly forcing down a Greek salad alone as the wind howled through a seaside taverna. By day six, my girlfriend was considering making a dash for the airport, but the flights were already full of others fleeing the country.
So this year, I'll be splashing the summer cash, hopping on a train and zooming down to the Riviera while the heat is on, to join the million stylish, sociable and fun-loving French tourists trying to grab the last table at a cafe and squeezing a towel on to any available square of sand.
The holiday seasons aren't called high and low for nothing. Embrace the highs, and don't envy the lows. Yes, parents, the rest of us can pick up flights to Klagenfurt for a quid when the kids are back at school. Believe me, it isn't always worth it.

As the Lions have shown, onfield success is what excites fans, writes Steve Connolly.
Judging by the barometer of bums on seats, AFL is clearly king of the football codes in Brisbane. As AFL premiers the Lions count the takings from another sell-out crowd of 36,000 in their grand final replay against Collingwood at the Gabba, the Broncos can only watch with envy.
The Broncos enjoy crowd support many other NRL clubs dream of, but because they are playing in one of the best and most expensive stadiums to rent, they need crowds of more than 30,000 at each home game.
Their move last year from ANZ Stadium in Brisbane's south to the inner-city Suncorp Stadium was expected to be the catalyst for increased fan numbers. The stadium, after a $280 million refit and with its capacity boosted to 52,500 spectators, was to propel them back to their heyday support of the early 1990s. Then they regularly attracted crowds of more than 50,000.
Those numbers had dropped to an average of about 20,000 in the latter days at ANZ, and well below that for the last four games there in 2003.
Hopes of a Suncorp-driven resurgence followed a crowd of 46,337 when the Broncos hosted Newcastle in the first game back at the old Lang Park in June.
But an eight-game losing streak after a narrow win over the Sydney Roosters meant the Broncos didn't recapture the sort of support they had for the game against the Knights.
Only two of the following seven games topped the 30,000 mark and in two matches - against Manly and Wests Tigers - the crowd figure barely stretched above 15,000, leaving huge tracts of empty seats.
The Broncos, while having more onfield success this season, have not generated a huge amount of support. A crowd of 28,546 watched the opening game against the Warriors, followed by a disappointing 23,550 for the Parramatta match and 19,334 for the win over the Melbourne Storm last weekend.
Broncos CEO Bruno Cullen conceded after the Parramatta game that the team's home matches, which had been scheduled on supposedly family-friendly Sunday afternoons, probably needed more promotion.
"We have to get in people's faces and tell them what a great day out it is," he said.
The Broncos' next home game is a potential blockbuster - against reigning premiers Penrith on the Anzac Day holiday weekend.
The then table-topping Panthers drew 31,180 fans to Suncorp last August and the Broncos will be banking on a bigger crowd this year.
If the Broncos, who beat the Sydney Roosters on Friday night, can maintain their healthy ladder position after the away game against the North Queensland Cowboys, Suncorp may host its second 40,000-plus crowd for an NRL match.
Getting bums on seats has not been a problem for the high-flying Lions for many years. Officials reckon they could sell 60,000 tickets for the Collingwood game given the interest in the Lions after three successive premierships.
An estimated 1300 people are moving each week to south-east Queensland from the southern states, and many are AFL fans.
The success of the Lions after three premierships, with three Brownlow medallists on the playing staff and one of the game's greatest names in Leigh Matthews, as coach is an enticing formula.
In contrast, the Broncos have lost drawcard players such as Allan Langer and Kevin Walters, and taciturn coach Wayne Bennett does not give much time to the media.
The healthy crowds for all the Rugby World Cup games in Brisbane last year proved that people like Suncorp Stadium as a venue.
And fans will support what they perceive to be a major event: almost 30,000 have bought tickets to the rugby union Super 12 match between the Queensland Reds and the NSW Waratahs at Suncorp next month.
By their standards, the Reds have had a dismal Super 12 season so far, yet fans are still willing to pay to watch them play the Waratahs.
Other home games at Ballymore should each attract crowds of around 20,000.
That fans have to have access to pay TV to watch their games live at home also helps the Reds. That's not the case with the Broncos, whose home games have been on delayed telecast on Channel Nine.
But TV can't be used an excuse for poor crowd figures because the Lions game on Thursday was broadcast live - as are most of the club's home fixtures.

I purchased this laptop for my granddaughter who just graduated from High School, and will be entering college this fall. She needed a laptop to carry with her, and I let her choose the one she wanted. We looked at several on your website because I love Overstock.com and I have always received good products from you! She wanted to look at other websites, like ******* and ****** *****, and after looking, she returned to your site. I advised her I had never been disappointed with anything I had purchased, until recently (the Inspire Q bench)and that was good enough for her ! When I took has home last Friday, the computer had arrived at her home, and she was delighted. So, it you can please my granddaughter, a girl with aspiring taste, that is okay with me!

Notes from Abroad: Oxford #8: All the World's a Stage
Nate Lane '14 reflects on how the group's study of literature enriched their experiences at Stratford-upon-Avon:
Today the Deerfield Oxonians travelled scenic country roads to the village of Stratford-upon-Avon. Famous as the birthplace of William Shakespeare, Stratford is the home of the Swan Theatre, where we saw the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of Hilary Mantel's Bring Up the Bodies. Even for those not familiar with the 2012 novel from which the play was adapted, or its precursor, Wolf Hall, it was an excellent performance. The black-box theatre is utilitarian, but the detailed period costumes and prodigious talent of the actors convincingly transformed it into the Tudor court—even from our less-than-ideal vantage point two stories above the barren concrete stage. The political instability of 16th century England was captured well, with scenes of revelry and raunchy banter often immediately followed by brutal interrogations and sinister back-room dealings. The dialogue and body language of the actors; the subtle lighting; the real flames licking or the snow falling occasionally in the background; the synth and snare drum signaling moments of tension or transition; each came together to make the production seem effortlessly smooth, even—dare I say—cinematic.
Our appreciation of the play was elevated by preparation beforehand. With prequel Wolf Hall fresh on our (well, at least some of our) minds, actor Ben Miles's accuracy to Mantel's depiction of protagonist Thomas Cromwell made his performance all the more enjoyable. Knowing Cromwell's origins also made each alliance and betrayal more resonant: watching his internal conflict between revenge, justice, and survival was perhaps the most gripping experience I have ever had in theatre. Oxford professor Sally Bayley gave further background about the characters and poetry of the Tudor court in a morning lecture, using images from Britain's national portrait gallery, actual correspondences between Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII, passages from Wolf Hall, and works by court poet Thomas Wyatt to introduce the characters of the play. As the lights dimmed and the actors first filed onstage, I smiled as they began to recite Wyatt's poem "Whoso List to Hunt;" thanks to Dr. Bayley, I understood the reference.
I recommend Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies even in their printed forms. (If from what I have mentioned here the subject still seems dry, I will try a shorter pitch: Real-life Game of Thrones.) There have been many incredible incidents during our time here in England, but watching the Royal Shakespeare Company perform was definitely one of the highest points.

"I try to keep my regimen — rest, water, eat well, work out — so that when this is all over, I don't experience a total hangover," she says, taking a bite of scrambled eggs in a recent interview at a Beverly Hills cafe.
She hasn't yet accepted that her life may never be the same. "I have a very ostrich mentality," she says. "I feel like I have my head in the sand so no one can see me."

The casting around I've done persuades me that the native Dot[] must
be the most streamlined, compiled, parallelized, optimized Mathematica
function already, and it'll probably take a huge calculation on the
GPU to pay for the overhead.
I think there will probably be more potential for gain in the more
complex parts of the linear algebra library.
Seems to me it would be a good business proposition for Wolfram to
include OpenCL and CUDA linear algebra libraries and pick the best one
for the installed hardware. There's a lot of FUD surrounding this
(just search this newsgroup for "CUDA"), and a few targeted benchmarks
would go a long way toward building user confidence, selling a lot of
new hardware and solving a lot of sophisticated problems in math,
physics and engineering.
Maybe these could fill a section in my other favorite unrealized
Wolfram business proposition - $0.99 iPaclets. (The iPaclet store
would poll your machine hardware, drivers and software and make
Cabin fever dreams?
