When its coveted bone is appropriated by a large sea dweller, our dog hero is faced with two options: yelp home with its tail between its legs, or getting its snorkeling gear to get the bone back. Thankfully for platformer lovers worldwide and Subdog Underwater Adventure adherents specifically, our canine protagonist blissfully picks the second option.
The water that makes up most of the playing area cloaks the platform play. The gameplay is leveled, and launches play with several virtual buttons that control movement. Unless supported by an object, the dog sinks to the bottom of the marine travel way; there is a flotation button that causes the dog to pop up when pressed. There are also direction button, and a shoot button. I quickly found that there are sharp dangers on the top and bottom of the waterway that are best avoided.
The other dangers also add to the challenge. There's stuff that look like landmines that float up and down and left to right to create a lethal, seemingly motile lethal net. Getting by these requires timing, patience and a bit of daring, because its one touch and done. As noted, there are "natural" killers on the bottom and top, so crawling along on the ground won't help all the time. Jumping and moving is a skill to be perfected, and is pretty much the difference between getting through or failing; the level ends when the dog gets to the exit bone. There are other things to collect, like keys, which can be used to unlock chains that appear.
I try not to fuss about ads — developers need to eat too — bu the ones in this game are bit distracting with no way to get rid of them via performance or in-app purchase. If the ad system was made to punish players for failing a level, it works.
But without a doubt, the game is fun, comes from a familiar genre with well-aged looks, and is able to feel a bit fresh.

Ospreys & Wales in Jones stand-off
The Welsh Rugby Union has been dragged into another public spat, after reports emerged that they want to put another top player on a central contract.
In the latest incident the Ospreys have accused the WRU of continuing to negotiate with Adam Jones and breaking a pledge that they would not compete with them for his signature.
Lyn Jones reportedly gave journalists the impression at a Dragons media briefing that the 33-year-old prop had signed a contract with the union.
But the Ospreys have yet to officially give up on their chances to retain the services of their B&I Lions and Wales tighthead prop and issued a statement pointing an accusatory finger at the governing body.
"We received Email confirmation from the Welsh Rugby Union on February 12 that they would not compete with us to sign Adam," said the region's chief executive Andrew Hore.
"We subsequently discovered they were continuing to negotiate with him and have offered him considerably more.
"We are still waiting to hear back from Adam. The ball is in his court."
The Ospreys have been desperate for the situation to be resolved so they can put in place firm budgetary plans for next season, and have previously issued a statement saying the situation couldn't drag on indefinitely.
Further muddying the waters is a legally binding agreement the four regions have in place which prevents them from playing any centrally contracted players.

Ages ago…or months ago, i cant even remember now, but it's been awhile. I mentioned in a comment on this blog about the desire for secession of California. Someone had some interest in it, and asked for some links…I finally got off my lazy ass and got it up…OORAH!
That's a few…If there's more interest I can scrounge through my bookmarks later.

This experiment provides an example of (1) a distribution of random values, (2) how to express the dispersion of such a distribution (a measure of "error" or "uncertainty"), and (3) how the error measures of two variables relate to the error measure of a mathematical combination of those variables.
A number of sets of ten loose resistors of the same marked value in a numbered envelope (or box).
A multimeter with ohmmeter function.
This is not a laboratory "experiment" in the usual sense, but a learning exercise to demonstrate the mathematical rules of error analysis. You will study a situation which simulates error distributions and error propagation
Many manufactured items, produced by automated machinery or an assembly line, show a natural variation in some physical property: size, color, etc. This variability is a natural consequence of the many individual "errors" in each part of the fabrication machinery.
Carbon resistors, used in all kinds of electrical and electronic circuits, are a good example. They consist of a small chunk of carbon with two wires attached, then encased in molded plastic for durability. Their electrical resistance is their important property, and that resistance shows variation from resistor to resistor.
If you have a large bin of resistors, all manufactured to have the "same" resistance, they will, if measured precisely enough, have different resistance values. We will use this variability of resistance as a simulation of the variability we find in repeated measurements taken in a laboratory investigation.
This variability of resistance values will be studied as a simulation of the indeterminate error one observes in repeated independent measurements of any physical quantity. Normally the experimental error in a measurement is due mostly to instrumental and procedural variations, But in this simulation the variation is entirely in the things being measured. Instrumental error is negligible by comparison, and will be ignored.
Before coming to laboratory, read the handout sheets which discuss experimental errors (uncertainties).
In this experiment we are only concerned with indeterminate errors. Therefore the rules given in Appendix II of the handout. We will not ask you to calculate or use standard deviations, though serious students might want to do this for practice.
Do the following exercises by using the rules given in the handout. [The starred questions are designed to separate the "A" students from the rest!]
(1) The physical law for the effective resistance of a series string of resistors is:
where X, Y, Z, etc. are the resistances of the individual resistors and R is the resistance of their series combination.
Work out the error propagation equation for the formula for this law. Express it in two forms, one for absolute error and one for relative (fractional) error.
(2) The physical law for the effective resistance of resistors combined in parallel is:
Work out the error equation for the formula for an arbitrary number of resistors combined in parallel. Express it in both forms also.
Hint: Since the numerator value "one" has no error, the relative (fractional) error in 1/X is, by the quotient rule,
Relative error Relative error Relative error in numerator - in denominator = in quotient. ΔX ΔX 0 - —— = - —— X X
Each term of the parallel resistor equation is of this form, so start by writing its error equation in relative error form. Then algebraically rearrange and simplify it. [Answer: The relative error in 1/X is ΔX/X2.]
(3) Two resistors are chosen from a batch in which all resistors are marked with the value 15 kilohms and a error limit of 10%. When they are connected in series, their combined resistance is expected to be 30 kilohms. What is the error limit of this result?
Answer: 0.30k, which is 10% of 30k.
(4) Two 10% resistors of size 15 kilohms are chosen from the same batch are connected in parallel. Their combined resistance is expected to be 7.5 kilohms. What is the error limit of this result?
Answer: 0.75k, which is 10% of 7.5k.
(5) Were you surprised at these results? Do not be misled by these "special" cases. The results are not this simple when the two resistors have different uncertainty values. Consider one 20% resistor of size 20k and one 10% resistor of size 10k connected in series. The combined resistance is therefore 30k. What is the expected % error in this result?
Answer: 5k, which is 16.7% of 30k.
Notice what this answer is not. 16.7% is not the sum of 20% and 10%, and is not the average of 20% and 10%. This should illustrate that you must not jump to hasty conclusions based on "common sense." Work out these problems mathematically!
(6*) Consider a large number of resistors of many different sizes all having 10% uncertainty. Show algebraically that when any number of these resistors are connected in series, the resistance of the combination will also have 10% uncertainty.
(7*) Show the same for a parallel combination.
(8*) A more realistic calculation takes into account the tendency of indeterminate errors in combinations of independent things have errors less than the maximum-error `worst-case' calculations above. The rules above are modified by `summing in quadrature' instead of summing. That is, the error equation in standard form is modified by squaring each term. Work out the results for the error in series and parallel combinations of two equal resistors and compare with the results above. [Answers: Series: 1.414 instead of 2. Parallel: 0.354 instead of 0.5.]
Use a digital multimeter as an ohmmeter. Its range switch has a setting for resistance measurements. Its two probes are then connected to the lead wires of the resistor (or combination of resistors) and the resistance value appears on the digital display.
Do not bend or twist the resistor leads, leave them straight. If you wish to make firmer connections, use alligator clips to attach to the resistor leads.
When finished with the experiment be sure to return the multimeter's range switch to the volts position, and switch the meter off. The prevents the possibility of the meter's internal batteries being drained.
Carbon resistors have been placed in envelopes (or boxes), 10 resistors to a box. These are numbered, and will be called "sets" from here on.
In all parts of this experiment you will, at any time, work with just one of the numbered sets of 10 resistors. Do not mix sets or interchange resistors between sets. Have only one set "open" on your lab table at a time.
Keep in mind that this exercise simulates experimental error in any measurement process. It is instructive to think of each set of resistors as a set of ten measurements you might make of any physical quantity.
Since we wish to simulate independent measurements, it is important that you never measure the same resistor more than once.
All of the sets taken together represent a a sample from a larger set of sets of measurements: the entire batch of resistors of this value which the factory manufactured.
This experiment is a concrete simulation model of the measurement process. You will make a finite number of measurements of a quantity in order to draw generalizations about the much larger set of measurements which you could make (but won't), to specify how well the small sample represents the larger set. [The set of all measurements which could possibly be made is called the parent distribution.]
(1) Use the digital multimeter. Set its range switch to the ohmmeter function. Use the ohmmeter to measure each of the resistors in one set. To assure unbiased, random selection in later parts of the experiment, do not mark or label the individual resistors, but return each to the envelope after it has been measured (to avoid measuring the same one twice). Of course you will record the ten values you obtain, and you must record the number on each set's envelope (to prevent you from using the same envelope twice).
(2) When finished with the ten resistors of one set, trade sets with someone else who has finished. You will trade envelopes with other students later, but be sure never to repeat measurements on a set you have measured before! Each new set of resistors represents a fresh random sample from the much larger sample of over 120 resistors available to you.
(3) Find the mean of 20 resistance values (two sets), the maximum deviation, the average deviation of the mean, and [if you wish] the standard deviation of the mean.
(4) Obtain another envelope. Group the ten resistors in 5 sets of pairs. Use the ohmmeter to measure the resistance of each pair of two connected in series (5 measurements). Obtain another envelope and repeat, until you have a total of twenty resistance values of series pairs. [You should be pretty efficient at this by now!]
(5) Obtain a new set of resistors. Repeat the procedures (3) and (4) again, but this time connect resistors in parallel, for a total of twenty measurements.
(6) If there it time, investigate the situation of three randomly selected resistors in parallel. You might also investigate two in parallel connected to another in series.
(1) For each group of 10 resistance values, find the mean, maximum deviation, and the average deviation of the mean. [The average deviation of the mean will be taken as the "uncertainty" of the mean.]
(2) For each group of 20 measurements of two resistors in series, do the same.
(3) For each group of 20 measurements of two resistors in parallel, do the same.
The following questions assume that you are not using standard deviations as the error measures.
(1) The error equation you derived for series resistors predicts that the absolute uncertainty in the resistance of the series combination is the sum of the absolute certainties of the individual resistors. Does your data support this? If not, would you say that you have invalidated the rule?
(2) The error equation you derived for parallel resistors predicts that the relative uncertainty in the resistance of the parallel combination is the sum of the relative uncertainties in the individual resistors. Does your data support this? If not, would you say that you have invalidated the rule?
(3) Are the results for series and parallel resistor combinations in sufficiently good agreement with the error-propagation rules for maximum uncertainties (error limits)? For average deviations of the mean? Discuss.
(4) If you could have measured all of the resistors the factory manufactured, you could make some very definite statements about the average value and the distribution of the measured values. But you have only a small subset sample of this larger "parent" distribution. Still you can draw some conclusions about the parent distribution on the basis of your sample. Is the parent distribution symmetric? Is it Gaussian? If it isn't Gaussian, how would you describe it? [Hint: Plot a distribution curve of all of the resistors you measured.]
(5) You worked with 20 values in each part of the experiment. Was this enough to demonstrate the laws of error propagation? Would 50 have demonstrated the laws better? If less time were available, and you had only used 5 values, would that have been enough to demonstrate the same principles and results convincingly? Answer this on the basis of your data.

On Halloween, we all enjoy handing out treats to the little monsters that arrive at our door asking for candy. Unfortunately, some of us have to deal with damage created by larger monsters that arrive at our door asking for trouble.
Vandalism and property damage are just some scary Halloween insurance concerns. You also have to consider the possibility of trick-or-treaters getting hurt on your property or accidents caused by decorations or other holiday accoutrements. Are your insurance policies ready to handle any horrors that the holiday may bring?
Here are some of the most common Halloween events that might trigger an insurance claim.
You can limit the possibility of mishaps and accidents through simple preventative measures. Use batteries instead of flames for illumination, keep your house well lit, remove any slip hazards (including ice and snow if you live in a colder climate), and do not set up any hazardous decorations.
With some foresight, you can enjoy the holiday with confidence. Check to make sure your policies cover these common Halloween-related concerns, understand any exclusions that may exist, and close any loopholes that you think are important enough to be closed. Then you will not have to worry about a damage claim or lawsuit rising from the night to consume your bank account and terrorize your financial plans.
Remember your insurance premium could also be affected by your credit rating. You can check your credit score and read your credit report for free within minutes using Credit Manager by MoneyTips.

Max Kuhn went 4-for-4 and A.J. Reed hit his 14th home run of the season to lead Kentucky to a 12-0 rout of Missouri at Cliff Hagan Stadium on Saturday night.
Reed's two-run homer in the fifth inning staked the Cats to a 2-0 lead and gave him home runs in five consecutive Southeastern Conference games.
UK (23-12, 7-7) padded its lead with a nine-run sixth inning. The Cats had seven hits in the inning — including two singles by Thomas Bernal — and took advantage of three Missouri errors.
Micheal Thomas, Ka'ai Tom, Storm Wilson and Matt Reida also had multiple hits in the game for Kentucky.
UK starter Dylan Dwyer (4-1) pitched 61⁄3 scoreless innings, allowing six hits, walking one and striking out three. Logan Salow and Zach Strecker worked the last 22⁄3 innings.

Hey everybody, just joined about....5 minutes ago. I'm in the midst of planning two trips, one for April-August 2008 and the same one a year later, in 2009.
First off, for some background information, I'm helping with the Tour for the Cure, a cross-country roadtrip visiting 150 major and minor league baseball stadiums over the course of a single season, raising money for cancer research (through the Jimmy Fund). While 2008 belongs to another person, the 2009 Tour is, at the moment, mine to plan and go on.
Now I've got a few questions for you guys, since I assume you're all seasoned roadtrippers. Keep in mind I dont graduate high school for another 2 months and....19 days. I know, I should probably be older before i do this trip, but it's now or never.
As you can imagine, the expenses for a 150-day, 40,000 mile trip, get to be a little...expensive. Funding comes directly out of the Director's pocket, unless we (or in this case I) can secure sponsorships. What are some good ways to cut costs on the road?
Secondly, if you've visited a city or town, theres a good chance they have a baseball team, and an even better chance I'll be going too. Any tips on nearly any town are greatly appreciated.
Finally, I can't stress enough how much an RV would help on this trip (because i dont feel like sleeping in my '94 Honda). Does anybody have tips on how to cheaply acquire an RV. I've been researching it for a while, and it seems a normal rental costs too much, and all the manufacturers aren't too helpful with RV Loans. The one thing I've got going for me is the fact that the Tour is endorsed by The Jimmy Fund, a liscensed non-profit, meaning we enjoy all non-profit tax benefits. So, I'm no expert on tax law (last time i checked it isnt offered in high school), but I know theres something about RV donations/Loans and tax write-offs. Care to help clarify?
Thanks in advance guys (and girls). The past Tour's have all been a little...scrappy, and this year isnt looking any better. I personally want to vastly improve everything for the 2009 Tour, and any advice you have would help more than you can imagine. feel free to email me or hit me up on aim if you use it, i think i added them both to my profile.
Thanks again,

Remember the buses meeting tonight
A reminder again that tonight is the 'Save our Buses' meeting in Athy Community School where local groups concerned about cuts in private and state bus services are coming together to show their frustrations, writes Brian Byrne.
The CEO of the National Transport Authority will be in attendance, as will local and Dail public representatives.
The event has been organised by groups from Castledermot, Carlow and Kilkenny to provide a wide-range show of strength on the issue, which has affected commuters, students, the elderly and other users of buses on many rural roads, including between Carlow and Naas.
The meeting begins at 8pm.

How was former LSU Tiger Saivion Smith able to transfer to Alabama?
SEC Country reporter Alex Hickey will answer your LSU Tigers sports queries each weekday in our LSU Question of the Day. Join the conversation by sending your questions via Twitter to @SECCountryLSU, @bigahickey or by email to Alex at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Question of the Day: Thursday, Dec. 7
I am stealing a question from colleague Sam Spiegelman's LSU recruiting Facebook Live from Wednesday night. It's not a recruiting question, per se, but it's one that more than a few Tigers fans have been wondering this week.
Former LSU cornerback Saivion Smith announced he will be attending Alabama next year. Fans like Chris Keyes are curious as to how that's possible.
The reason Smith was able to go to Alabama is because he spent this season at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, which eliminated any chance of LSU putting a restriction on his transfer. That's the upside of a player going the JUCO route — he can do whatever he wants with his future.
It's not an uncommon practice. If you're a New Orleans Saints fan, you're an Alvin Kamara fan. The running back went the opposite path of Smith, going from Alabama to Hutchinson Community College to Tennessee. So it's not as if the Tide are the only team that has benefitted from this practice. Losing Kamara is a net loss compared to gaining Smith.
LSU has previously struck gold with a junior college transfer who started at another SEC program — quarterback Zach Mettenberger, who went from Georgia to LSU via Butler Community College.
Last year, the Tigers got a player who transferred from LSU to a junior college program only to come back to Baton Rouge — defensive tackle Travonte Valentine. Of course, Valentine failed to pan out in his second stint as a Tiger and is out of football. The greater point is that the Tigers aren't always the ones getting burned in these kinds of situations.
Does it stink that Smith will be at Alabama? Sure. But if Kevin Toliver and Donte Jackson both return to LSU next year, you'll never even notice he left.
To see prior answers to our Question of the Day, we have you covered.

I recently wrote about maple syrup fraud and how two senators are trying to introduce higher penalties for those who sell fraudulent maple syrup on the market. So, it was dismaying to find out that honey sold in the U.S. has serious issues as well. It was a reminder, once again, to support local farmers.
Here's the problem. Our shelves are being filled with honey that is considered unsafe in other countries. This honey comes from Asia and India and is potentially laced with lead, other heavy metals, and animal antibiotics. Even worse, some "honey" is actually manufactured from artificial sweeteners and then filtered to remove any trace of contamination.
I'd rather take my honey without antibiotics and lead, thank you.
One of the tests they can run to check for honey purity is checking pollen counts. When a honey is ultra-filtered, it is most likely not real honey or could come from dubious sources and is polluted with contaminants. Unfortunately the FDA is not currently running any checks on honey.
One of the nations premiere melissopalynologists, Vaughn Bryant, at the request of Food Safety News, tested 60 bottles of honey for pollen counts. Here are his results.
Results of honey testing
76 percent of samples bought at groceries had all the pollen removed, These were stores like TOP Food, Safeway, Giant Eagle, QFC, Kroger, Metro Market, Harris Teeter, A&P, Stop & Shop and King Soopers.
100 percent of the honey sampled from drugstores like Walgreens, Rite-Aid and CVS Pharmacy had no pollen.
77 percent of the honey sampled from big box stores like Costco, Sam's Club, Walmart, Target and H-E-B had the pollen filtered out.
100 percent of the honey packaged in the small individual service portions from Smucker, McDonald's and KFC had the pollen removed.
Bryant found that every one of the samples Food Safety News bought at farmers markets, co-ops and "natural" stores like PCC and Trader Joe's had the full, anticipated, amount of pollen.
Remember, a lack of pollen in honey signifies ultra-filtered honey that may not even be honey at all. I was shocked at the high number of pollen-free honey sold. While I hope that new, tougher regulations are put into practice for the honey industry in the U.S., I am not waiting for the FDA to protect me. I am taking my own steps to buy pure honey. The obvious step to me is buying from local beekeepers as much as possible. I was thrilled in the above report that honey from local health food stores, Trader Joes, and farmers markets contained full pollen counts. Here are some resources to consider for your own pure honey search.
Links for finding local honey
www.ams.usda.gov/farmersmarket: A national listing of farmers markets.
www.localharvest.org: A website that will help you find local honey as well as many other local products.
www.Buylocalfood.com: Another website that helps your locate local food, such as local honey.
Weston A Price Foundation Chapters: Join a Chapter for help locating local resources, which often include honey.
If you have a local Trader Joes in your area, they sell honey for a reasonable price. Of course, local health food stores often have excellent honey as well. My local store, New Seasons Market has a wide variety of local and raw honeys that are amazing.
Brands like Really Raw Honey and Honey Gardens are the solar opposite of ultra-filtered, manufactured honey. They are not heated or filtered in any way so they contain all of the beneficial traces of pollen, propolis and beeswax. They also taste amazing.
For more information on honey laundering, browse the following links.
I am grateful for the USA beekeepers that work so hard to give us such lovely honey to buy that is safe too. Do you have any favorite local honey brands or raw honey brands?

Survey: Should the US Gov't Bail Out Detroit?
Rarely have commenters been so united in their ridicule of a post as when I made the suggestion that perhaps GM "built cars that exactly matched the needs of an American economy based on suburban development, big box stores and fast food, all promoted by direct and hidden subsidies from the government." So let's frame the question in simpler terms:

Australian tennis looks to bounce back
Tennis is part of the essential soundtrack to an Australian summer: balls rocketing off strings, the squeal of overworked footwear on baking courts and the grunts of heavy exertion.
It's a sport that Australia once dominated. In the 1960s and '70s the nation built a triumphant global legacy - Rod Laver, Ken Rosewall, Roy Emerson and John Newcombe were imperious, while Margaret Court and Evonne Goolagong Cawley became sporting royalty.
But since the early 1980s, Australia's women have claimed just a solitary Grand Slam singles title, and it's more than a decade since the evergreen Lleyton Hewitt became the last Aussie man to win a major, at Wimbledon in 2002.
Changing times?
The trophy drought has caused despair among the country's tennis aristocracy.
"We just wondered where the next group of top players was coming from," says Rosewall, who won eight Grand Slam singles titles.
"I think we've just been unlucky that we haven't had a nucleus of top players that were ready to go along with Lleyton (Hewitt).
"Over that period of time Australian people were disappointed we were not doing better, but let's hope that has changed."
Bankrolled by the riches generated by the sale of TV rights at the Australian Open, Tennis Australia, the governing body, has been pouring money into community projects, hoping to unearth new gems.
Championship windfall
"Tennis Australia puts the broadcast revenue into the grass roots, and I think that is why tennis is picking up in Australia like never before," explains Tim Harcourt, an economist at the University of New South Wales.
"There was a bit of a crisis in 2006 where there wasn't much Australian talent at the top and people were pulling out of tennis," he says.
"Tennis Australia decided to basically restructure the whole sport and put more money into the community - [money] that they were getting from [Roger] Federer and Serena Williams here... using those revenues more wisely."
The Australian Open provides a windfall not just for tennis.
It pumps around 238m Australian dollars (£130m; $214m) into the Victorian state economy.
It attracts 800,000 spectators and visitors to Melbourne, while global television audiences top 300 million.
Tennis is one of the most popular sports on Australian TV but a local last won the first "slam" of the year in the 1970s. An impatient nation waits for a fresh generation of stars.
'Hard work'
At the Jaggard-Ibarrola Tennis Academy in Sydney's leafy northern suburbs, pint-sized warriors do battle in a junior competition.
The future of Australian tennis is in these eager, young hands, and from these hard-hitters there could emerge the champion that this sport-mad country is so desperate for.
But tennis, like other sports, often has problems keeping new recruits.
"Sometimes life for some youngsters can be a bit easy and they probably choose other ways, and in the past we had more people willing to do the hard work," said Fernando Ibarrola, a former Argentine professional, and coach at the centre.
A child's passion can be expensive and time-consuming for parents, and making it to the top is unquestionably tough, requiring precocious talent, and sacrifice.
"You've got to have a package, and that's the hardest thing to be a really good player. You can't just have a good technique, you've got to be physically very good, you've got to be mentally very sound and tactically understand well," explained Michelle Jaggard, an ex-Australian Federation Cup player.
"On the court they really have to put their child mind off the court and become a bit more adult thinking, and it is not an easy thing to do because they want to be kids."
'Train and train'
Shanté Lai hits the ball as deftly as any 10-year-old in the competition.
She trains for 10 hours a week with professional coaches, and along with doubles partner Chelsea Pernice, lists the verve and grit of Serena Williams as her guiding principles, although the girls admit that their schedules are taxing.
"I miss sometimes my friends because I have tournaments and training," says Shanté.
"But if you really want to be up in the top 10 and you are really passionate about it, you do anything to be up there to be playing tennis for your life," adds Chelsea, 12.
"I just think that to myself when I miss out on a birthday party or a sleepover, it doesn't matter - you can have plenty of them in your life after your tennis career. Just train and train."
'Really tough'
Success at the very top does filter down to the grass roots, and serves to encourage those who are willing to put in the serious work.
Sam Stosur's triumph at the US Open in 2011 did lift Australian spirits, but as the global business of tennis becomes more lucrative and the competition intensifies, the nation's past domination of world tennis seems unlikely to be repeated.
"When I was coming along in the late '80s, early '90s, there were about 1,000 players ranked on tour," said Todd Woodbridge, an ex-Grand Slam doubles champion and former head of professional development at Tennis Australia.
"Now there are 2,000. So, when we look at those glory days and that of Australian tennis, we have to be realistic and say we were a really big fish in a small pond back then and now we are just one of the numbers that make up this sport.
"To be honest there is no way we are going to get back to where we were. We might get one player but it is going to be really tough to get the numbers we once had."
Success, of course, is measured in many ways.
For Australian tennis, it's not just about glory at the elite level but also the social and health dividends of encouraging more people, especially children, to pick up a racquet and to savour the sound of a sweetly struck forehand.

Seems like just yesterday the Illustrious Leaders were telling us the ranks of Al-Qaeda had been "decimated." We thought "decimated" meant something like "wiped out in great numbers." Now we read this assessment from Michael Knights of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. no right-wing loony bin:
Al Qaeda has put down new roots in Syria and Iraq where its training programs are turning out violent jihadis the way Ft. Dix used to turn out GIs. Quoted in Trudy Rubin's "Worldview" column, Knights describes this ominous development as part of a burgeoning "emirate." Our dictionary defines an emirate as an Islamic fiefdom.
He goes on to say: "This new Islamic emirate stretches from the Mediterranean to the Gulf, from Turkey and the Caucasus to Jordan and Saudi Arabia. It constitutes one continuous, borderless jihadi territory."
Doesn't sound very "decimated," does it? Maybe it depends on how you define the word. Literally, our dictionary tells us, decimate means to kill every tenth one. Maybe our Illustrious Leaders were trying to warn us about the other nine out of 10 who are still on the loose.
"We weren't as clear as we needed to be," said The Main Man, explaining the millions who ARE losing their medical coverage and doctor. In fact, The Main Man couldn't have possibly been more clear. He stated over and over, on multiple occasions in multiple locations: "If you like your healthcare plan, you can keep your healthcare plan. Period. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. Period." When he said "clear," he apparently meant "truthful." As in "We weren't as truthful as we needed to be."

We help our clients – governments, regulators, businesses, voluntary bodies and other organisations throughout the world – develop effective policies by understanding the opportunities, challenges and uncertainties around environmental changes.
We are internationally recognised as experts on climate mitigation, including de-carbonisation of electricity generation. We also have cross-sector expertise in advising how communities and organisations can adapt to the impact of extreme weather and climate change.
Assessing and designing effective environmental policy is complex. It must tackle the challenges of insufficient information and uncertainty and the complexities of human behaviour. We regularly develop credible tools that tackle these challenges.
Examples of our recent environmental policy analysis include: exploring the impacts of extreme weather and climate change on business and individuals, and where there is a case to help the UK prepare, advising Local Authorities across England on the benefits to their local economies of investing in flood defence, investigating the impact of emissions trading and other market mechanisms, quantifying the costs and benefits of alternative regulatory frameworks, and assessing behavioural responses to measures to reduce demand.

On Nov. 4, voters spectacularly rejected eight years of the most intense government war on marijuana since the days of "Reefer Madness," led by outgoing White House drug czar John Walters — voting overwhelmingly for a variety of reform proposals, including marijuana decriminalization in Massachusetts and medical marijuana in Michigan.
The Office of National Drug Control Policy has reacted with eerie silence, making no statements and issuing no press releases. But today on ONDCP's blog, the drug czar's office unveiled what may be their lamest anti-marijuana campaign yet. Yes, your tax dollars are actually funding this. For now.
By the way, jobs held by people who've acknowledged smoking marijuana include governor of California (Arnold Schwarzenegger), astronomer (Carl Sagan), mayor of New York (Michael Bloomberg), billionaire rock star/songwriter (Paul McCartney), and — well, you get the point.

The Ford F-250 Super Chief is a long-awaited medium-duty truck. For the first time, this concept appeared in 2006. Ever since fans are waiting for news about the production model. Now, it is a time for Super Chief to become a part of the F-250 lineup. So, why is this Ford truck so special? Well, almost everything. Where to start? Is that because of the unique, muscular design? None of the trucks from Ford has a similar appearance. Will that be an unbelievable drivetrain system, with three fuel types? So, euphoria is not there by accident, and Ford Super Chief is coming to fulfill all expectations.
Ford F-250 Super Chief Powertrain
Under the hood of the Ford F-250 Super Chief truck lays strange creature. The engine that produces power, uses petrol, ethanol, and hydrogen as its fuel to convert it into energy. Well, it would be impossible to mix all of these at once. The driver can use only one selected fuel.
The engine is going to be good to produce 300 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque. This truck will be also greener. Emissions of the CO2 are cut by 90 percent for petrol burning. For hydrogen, this number is at 10 percent less than its competitors can do. Furthermore, engineers are sure that 2018 Super Chief will be able to go 500 miles without refueling hydrogen. This will be achieved even with a turbocharger switched on.
Ford Super Chief Design
The styling of the Ford F-250 Super Chief pickup is impressing. Bold front fascia will make pickup truck pretty aggressive. It looks more like a luxurious truck than a working mule. The bed has a cover and liner as standard features. On the other side, rear we have suicide doors. Everything mentioned make the 2018 Super Chief unique and never-seen from Ford.
Ford F-250 Super Chief Release Date and Price
Pricing of the Ford Super Chief is unknown. Well, we can compare it to standard offer. The base model of F-250 super-duty truck costs from $33,000. But, with such styling and drivetrain, we believe Super Chief is going to cost closer to King Ranch or even Lariat versions. Nevertheless, we should see it probably in second half of 2019.

TruStar Energy has been awarded a contract to upgrade the CNG fueling station for the Kern County (Bakersfield, CA) school bus fleet.
The contract to update and expand the public/private station includes removing older compressors and associated infrastructure and replacing that with new state-of-the art compressors, fueling hoses, new fueling dispensers, and a canopy, said Kern County Superintendent of Schools Energy Conservation Supervisor, Scott Fieber.
"Since the original station's construction in 2005, we've gone from 10 buses to 60. We've just outgrown the existing station by all shapes and forms," said Fieber.
Fieber said the public demand for CNG has also risen dramatically – both in terms of the number of vehicles he is seeing – as well as the types of vehicles arriving to fuel.
"We're seeing new garbage trucks show up almost every week as well as one of our corporate clients with over 100 trucks," he said.
The upgraded facility will include two dispensers and other upgrades, including lighting.

Zero Motorcycles Moves Headquarters to New Location
to Meet Growing Global Demand
– Zero Continues Growth in Scotts Valley and Expands Operations by 26 Percent –
LONDON, (30th April 2013) – Zero Motorcycles, the global leader in the electric motorcycle industry, announces they have recently moved their corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility to a new location in Scotts Valley, California. The new 47,000 sq. ft. facility is almost 26 percent larger than Zero Motorcycles' previous headquarters and is better suited for manufacturing. The move will provide Zero with a powerful competitive advantage in a quickly advancing industry, by not only by expanding its manufacturing capability but by also keeping engineering and manufacturing teams working together in one location. The new headquarters is located nearby Zero Motorcycles' previous headquarters in Scotts Valley, California. While many companies look outside of the United States to develop and build products as demand increases, Zero is proud to continue to support the local communities of Scotts Valley and Santa Cruz.
"Zero Motorcycles has experienced exceptional growth and advancements over the past three years," states Richard Walker, CEO of Zero Motorcycles. "The all-new 2013 model line-up is generating significant interest among consumers and fleet managers alike and this new location will provide the company with much more flexibility to respond to this increasing level of interest throughout the remainder of 2013 and in coming years. The layout of the new location is much better suited to manufacturing and should allow us to scale rapidly as demand increases, not to mention provide a much nicer working environment for our staff."
Zero Motorcycles is benefitting not only from growth in consumer demand, but also from a strong interest for fleet applications. In addition, Zero's revolutionary powertrain is gaining recognition from other OEMs around the world. Zero Motorcycles' new headquarters will enable the company to continue to advance their innovative technology and maintain their reputation as leaders in the electric motorcycle industry. Located near Santa Cruz, California, the new headquarters is located at 380 El Pueblo Road in Scotts Valley, California.

The Quello Center seeks to stimulate and inform debate on the economic and social implications of media, communication and information innovations of our digital age. It conducts research that questions taken-for-granted assumptions, and collaborates with other centers of excellence in research on Internet studies, new media, and the social and economic implications of communication, media, and information technologies of our digital age as well as the policy and management issues raised by these developments.
Quello Center: Established as The James H. and Mary B. Quello Center for Telecommunication Management and Law
The Quello Center was launched in 1998, as The James H. and Mary B. Quello Center for Telecommunication Management and Law, but is increasingly known and referred to as the James and Mary Quello Center or simply the Quello Center. It was established as a multi-disciplinary center within the Department of Media and Information at Michigan State University, but its faculty work in collaboration with faculty from across the College of Communication Arts and Sciences, the broader University, and associates worldwide.
The scope of the center has changed with the increasing centrality of the Internet and digital media, but its mission has continued to focus on research that will improve understanding of the choices and options affected by innovation in communication technologies, industries, and consumer choices. The Quello Center pursues these goals through a variety of activities, including: the conduct of rigorous interdisciplinary research; an interest in technology, policy and practice at multiple levels from individual citizen/consumer to local and state to national and global arenas; providing opportunities, such as symposia and conferences, to facilitate dialogue among policy makers, scholars, industry executives, and consumer interest groups; participation in events and proceedings that evaluate important communication policy developments; and providing expertise and independent research to public and nonprofit institutions as well as the communication and Internet industry.
The Director of the Quello Center is Johannes M. Bauer as of August, 2018.
Previously, from 2014, the Director was Bill Dutton. Bill was preceded by Steven S. Wildman, who became the first Director in August 1999, holding the endowed James H. Quello Chair for Telecommunication Studies. Steve was joined by Barbara A. Cherry as Associate Director and Associate Professor in the Department of Telecommunication. In 2001, Johannes M. Bauer joined the Center and became Executive Director in 2003. Professor Bauer has remained active in the Center as a Professor in the Department of Media and Information, which he chairs.
Advisory Board (further details on members are available on our 'people' section)
Rationale Behind the Center
Media, communication, information, and Internet industries are undergoing tumultuous change, creating new market opportunities and societal choices with major social and economic consequences. These developments are posing new challenges for these industries in determining what products or services to market, investments to make, and marketing practices to adopt, as well as for consumers in understanding new technologies, choosing products and services, and protecting their privacy. Existing regulatory and legal systems have often been inadequate in addressing these developments, creating new policy problems and unclear choices for policy makers, such as around how to grapple with concerns over fake news, echo chambers, and filter bubbles.
The Quello Center is affiliated with the Department of Media and Information in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University. Its activities are enabled by an endowment to which nearly 200 donors have contributed in honor of James H. and Mary B. Quello and James Quello's vision for the Center. Building on the endowment, the Center pursues funding from major national research councils, governmental departments, public agencies, foundations and the private sector to underpin the independence and quality of its research.

A Closer Look at Drugs
Just as imaging technologies are guiding and, in some cases, replacing the scalpel, they are revolutionizing the evaluation of new cancer drugs.
Traditionally, a drug's effectiveness has been determined by its impact on patient survival, or by measuring the diameter of a tumor on a series of X-rays or CT scans taken over the course of several weeks.
That's too slow for oncologists like Craig Lockhart, M.D., assistant professor of Medicine in the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center. If there was a way of telling, within 48 hours, that a patient's tumor was not shrinking or otherwise responding to the drug, "we'd be able to save that patient a lot of time and potential toxicity," he says.
John Gore, Ph.D., director of the Vanderbilt University Institute of Imaging Science, is equally impatient. "We want to have more quantitative, more sensitive and more specific measures" of drug response, he says. "Imaging is the only way to do that."
Gore envisions radiologists and imaging scientists from the institute sitting down with oncologists at the cancer center to plan "what imaging should be done for every clinical trial."
That's also the goal of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), which is funding the establishment of Image Response Assessment Teams, composed of radiologists and imaging scientists, who would contribute to the design of clinical studies at cancer centers across the country.
"We're trying to get oncologists and imagers to work on the same team… to prove the value of therapeutic maneuvers," explains C. Carl Jaffe, M.D., chief of the NCI's Diagnostic Imaging Branch.
"We don't mean to imply the imaging community doesn't care about oncologic trials," Jaffe adds. "They're leading the development of new methods… (But) cancer trials are a special situation. You have to have greater uniformity, greater communication and greater discipline in order to produce quality data that can be trusted."
Advances in imaging technology will continue to refine—and challenge—the testing of new drugs. "For now, we have pretty darn good technology, but it's relatively undisciplined," Jaffe says. "… It just needs to be stabilized. That's where we're headed."

Like so many times before, Sean (40) sits with his so called friends in the separée of a nightclub, when suddenly a mysterious beauty (late 20's) appears on the edge of the dance floor. Immediately he is smitten and his courtship of Lilly becomes a relentless pursuit. To him, she is the path to happiness, the beginning of a new life free from the legacy of being a second-generation drug dealer.
Sean develops an obsession with Lilly, getting oblivious to any other aspect of life. He brings a drug deal to the brink of collapse and his father's friend and business partner, Ben, has to rescue him. Sean's actions become extreme and ill-judged, and his attempts to win Lilly's attention prove unsuccessful, until he discovers her two weaknesses – cocaine and heroin. Drugs become his ticket to her life, and so he also begins to inject heroin. He dreams about a better life of doing good, and thrives on fantasies of rescuing Lilly and thus himself. But the wounds of her traumatic childhood are still open, thwarting his plans.
And dreams are never greater than the dreamer. Sean himself has plenty of past traumas himself to deal with. Deep inside, there is an eight year old boy refusing to grow up. As he and Lilly sink deeper and deeper into the maelstrom of their intense but destructive relationship, reality begins to blur: When Sean hugs Lilly farewell, she bends down to kiss an eight year old boy. For both of them it is a moment of perfect happiness, a brief respite. Later, when Lilly is asleep, Sean crawls through her vagina into the womb, where he curls up like an embryo. But the next morning, reality breaks into Sean's fantasy paradise and what appeared to be the perfect union is revealed as the rape of Lilly.
"In Embryo" is a love story between two people driven by their desperate desire for companionship and intimacy. They are ready to risk it all for love, and for a moment it appears that love will triumph over violence and drugs. But the more Sean tries to hold on to Lilly and the illusion of starting over, the more he introduces chaos into their already crumbling lives. He discovers that Lilly's unrequited love is the result of her inability to abandon her childhood abuser, an old priest who continues to abuse her until today. In his desperate attempt to get rid of what stands between them once and for all – he loses everything. At the end he finds himself back at the nightclub, and in a dramatic showdown he sets off to settle the score with the ghosts of his childhood.

Video from People Who Work With Text: Rattling a Coffee Spoon at Alex Pareene
At the behest of Bloggingheads dot TV, Salon's Alex Pareene and I teamed up remotely on Friday to talk about...what, again? I think we started with David Brooks, and after that, my brain stopped forming memories. Then we ended up at Jay Cutler. In between, I forgot I was using an ambient-sound microphone and spent a lot of time fidgeting with the spoon in my coffee mug. Clang! The sound of the multimedia future.

AUSTIN (AP) – High school athletic officials in Texas are close to moving the state basketball tournaments after 93 years in Austin.
The University Interscholastic League also is adding competitive cheerleading.
The UIL Legislative Council cleared the way Wednesday for officials to work on a deal to move the boys' and girls' basketball championships to the Alamodome in San Antonio next year.
UIL officials have been concerned in recent years about the growth of the South By Southwest festival, making it difficult to hold the tournament events on consecutive weekends in early March.
The first state championship was held in Austin in 1921, when El Paso beat San Antonio for the boys' title. The first girls' tournament was in 1951.
There are now 48 teams — four in each of six divisions for boys and girls. The event has been held on the home court of the Texas Longhorns.
The council also voted to create competitive cheerleading as a pilot program in 2015-16. Any continuation of the pilot program will require another vote.
A UIL committee approved a pilot program that would give district champions in Class 6A, the state's highest classification, a home game in the first round of the playoffs. If approved in October, the plan would be in effect for the 2015 season.

Flash Memory Outpaces HDD Data Density
A new approach to constructing solid state drive technology is chipping away at advantages formerly held by hard disc drives. Up until 2016, computers and servers could get more in storage from a traditional hard disc drive than a solid state drive when accounting for the physical size of the device. According to Forbes this is no longer the case, as manufacturers can now build flash memory storage devices that store more data in less space than a traditional hard drive. However, should your data center immediately exchange all of its existing HDDs for SSDs? Most likely not. Read More

Student blogs problems: Getting the first blog comment
[part of the helping students to blog series]
One of the biggest problems facing bloggers in general (as well as running a blog for your students) is getting people to comment. Often the hardest part is just getting the first comment.
In fact, this was my problem. Despite setting tasks, regularly updating the blog to include a summary of the lesson and homework tasks. At first, these pages had lots of views and students, although not commenting or posting via the blogs they were at least making use of this record. Of course, over time these views dropped off and STILL no one was posting a comment. So I had few options.
- Keep doing the same path.
- Give up (it does take extra time)
- Try something new to encourage more engagement.
Why aren't they commenting
I choose the third as, for the reasons I mentioned previously, I think blogs are useful for students and I am sure that some students want to try it they just need to overcome some hurdles.
- General inertia
- Shyness
- Lack of technology know how
- No one else is doing it.
- Don't like the idea of blogging
What can we do to change this?
In the last case then there may well be nothing that could be done and in the case of a 1-2-1 students I would certainly consider stopping using the blog. However, although the current need or desire may not be there, in the future this need or desire may arise and so having the system in place, demonstrating it, and potentially having the testimonies of the other students might be enough of a kick.
Other than that we can.
- Make it anonymous at first
- Teach students how to use the technology (via blog posts, guides, screencasts etc)
- Get one comment and more will flow
- Remind students of the blog during classes
- When someone does comment, reply to their comment on the blog and bring it up in class.
- Incentives for comments (like bribing with chocolate!)
- Ask students what they think about the blog, if they like it or not and why they are/aren't using it.
I tried a mixture of these and different approaches produced different results for different students (suggest the amazing possibilities that individuals are, indeed, individuals!) but the factor that actually had the strongest effect was saying that I would give my students a chocolate if they commented on the blog. This then lead to some of my students coming up to me after class and confessing they had tried to use the site and then had problems. Because of this I could then assist them after class and help them learn to post a comment or create a post.
This won't be true of every students, another student has decided she likes the blogs, likes the pictures of the boardwork and extra tasks I set via it, but she doesn't want to or is unable to post comments or posts on it.
What approaches have you used to help students comment? What have you found effective? Do you have any extra ideas?

Things have been busy around the Pyre, but not in a Pyre-building way. As Joe Vitale's best buddy noted in his hissy fit blog post last month, we're just a bunch of pro-bono critic losers who have no life. Of course this is based upon the assumption that anyone who would ever criticize the perfectly inspired tripe coming out of Wimber-lie couldn't possibly have a life. (Doesn't that logic just dazzle you?)
So, I've been tending to my lack of life, including holidays, friends visiting, and a new project that has my attention and focus for the next couple of weeks.
Mr. Fire has been pretty quiet as of late, not doing much more than pie-in-the-sky dreams of being a trillionaire (let's just skip that billionaire business), fawning over a young starry-eyed opera singer, and taking ideas from other's books and trying as much as he can to make them his own (e.g., the checklist manifesto).
Not much to snark about there beyond a sentence or two.
I'm still waiting on anyone coming forward to talk about the success of their participation in the Awakened Millionaire program. And I'm of course looking forward to any information on how the woman who went into debt to attend that program last year is doing.
Vitale's favorite pit bull minion is chomping at the bit lately with some odd cryptic twitter posts. I suspect he's probably missing his CriticWatch days on twitter, wishing he could pick a fight or two. Boring. For now, he doesn't seem to be getting ready to launch any scam-infested wish doll products with his master, so I don't have much interest in his "limp dick" saber rattling.
For the next couple of weeks, I've got to focus on my new project, the fruition of which won't be discussed here. But I'll be back.
Until then, I highly recommend you follow the fun with Bill Harris, the Salty Droid, and Duff McDuffee at Beyond Growth. Seems that Billy-Joe Harris didn't really like Duff's analytic piece about the Hollow Sink (holosync) products Harris puts out and that James Ray required as a part of his Death Lodge party. So there have been threats, cease and desist letters, and a fantastic New Year wedding that brought tears to my eyes. I've never seen so much love.
If only there were so much love in Wimber-lie.

Shrimp Soup with Lemongrass and Lime (Tom Yum Goong)DL Staff | Delicious Living
- Serves: 4 people
- Calories per serving: 107
Thai cooks leave the tail portion of peeled, deveined shrimp attached; it turns a beautiful bright red, and one can hold it if eating the shrimp by hand. Roasted chili paste, a spicy-sweet, slightly smoky condiment sold in the Asian section of natural groceries, is also delicious as a meat rub, tossed with noodles, or in soup. For a vegetarian dish, omit shrimp and fish sauce, add 1 teaspoon salt, and include more mushrooms: shiitakes, oyster, and canned straw mushrooms, halved lengthwise.
- In a large serving bowl, combine lime juice, chilies, 3 of the torn or cut wild lime leaves, green onions, fish sauce, and roasted chili paste. Set bowl aside by the stove.
- Trim lemongrass stalks to a 3-inch base, discarding outer dried leaves; halve base lengthwise and chop coarsely. In a medium saucepan, combine chopped lemongrass, broth, water, and galangal or ginger; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, scoop out lemongrass and galangal. Discard.
- Return soup to a boil and add shrimp, mushrooms, and 3 remaining torn or cut wild lime leaves. Cook 2–3 minutes more, just until shrimp are pink and cooked through. Remove from heat and pour immediately over seasoning mixture in serving bowl. Stir once. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve hot.

HOW are 20 percent more men in 2006 like Jesus? And no, this isn't a joke.
According to market researchers NDP Group, that's how many more men bought sandals last year, compared to 2005.
But while the "Jesus sandals" of the '70s were relegated to bearded crunchy types, today's "mandals" have a broader, hipper appeal. And as women know, where fashion goes, pain often follows.
Doctors in the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons reported this week that "along with the growing popularity of men's sandals come more aches and pains for male feet."
Complications include heel pain, most often a result of plantar fasciitis. The plantar fascia is the thick band of tissue that extends from heel to toe on the underside of the foot.
When it gets inflamed – which often happens when people wear nonsupportive footwear (like sandals) on hard flat surfaces (like sidewalks) – it's called plantar fasciitis and is extremely painful.
Doctors are also seeing more Achilles tendonitis, wherein the tendon along the back of your ankle does not stretch properly and gets inflamed. Again, the condition can be caused by wearing flat sandals that put excess stress on the tendon. Again, super-painful.
Big-toe trouble is also a looming sandal problem. Stress fractures and breaks in the skin and bones are serious complications for anyone, and stub injuries are common where the tip of the big toe is traumatized, sometimes leading to fractures and toenail trauma.
Open-toe shoes in general make a person more susceptible to these types of injuries, which are extremely painful. Sandals expose more of the skin to sidewalk hazards, insect bites and abrasive surfaces.
A pesky foot injury that is minor to an average summer stroller could readily expand to a life-threatening condition of infection. More skin area, more risk.
How to minimize risk? First, and foremost, be aware that foot pain is never normal and acceptable in a sandal (or any shoe) for the first wearing or the hundredth. If there's pain, there's a problem, and no amount of "breaking in" should be tolerated. Take the sandal back. If you don't, it will be very expensive in the long term . . . and terribly painful.
Next, buy the right fitting sandal. The surgeon's group recommends looking for a sturdy, cushioned, supportive sole fashioned with padded straps.
Ask your foot and ankle surgeon for advice. Sandal-type shoes may not be a good fit for individuals who have predisposing musculoskeletal foot issues such as heel and ankle pain and a flat or high-arch foot.
Summer is here, and so is the longing for comfort and style. Sandals (or mandals) are a real summer pleasure – but a pleasure with a need for concern and smart selection.

BY MELISSA RUGGIERI/AJC Music Scene
The Jimmy Buffett musical "Escape to Margaritaville" will soon tote its shaker of salt to Broadway.
The production, which is playing at the La Jolla Playhouse in California through July 9, will premiere this fall in New Orleans, Houston and Chicago before opening at the Marquis Theatre in New York. Previews begin Feb, 16, with an official Broadway opening March 15.
The music of Buffett will replace the music of Gloria Estefan, as "Escape" takes the location held by "On Your Feet!," the musical based on the lives of Estefan and her husband, Emilio. It's slated to close Aug. 20 after playing 34 previews and 746 regular performances. "On Your Feet!" will launch a 31-city first national tour this fall.
But back to "Margaritaville"… the musical comedy features a string of Buffett tunes, both familiar ("Come Monday," "Volcano," "Cheeseburger in Paradise") and new. The book comes from Emmy Award winner Greg Garcia ("My Name is Earl," "Raising Hope") and Emmy Award nominee Mike O'Malley ("Shameless"). Choreography will be handled by Tony nominee Kelly Devine ("Come from Away," "Rock of Ages") and the show will be directed by Tony Award nominee Christopher Ashley, who is also the La Jolla Playhouse artistic director.

"Well, going to Broadway is a dream come true, but to be coming to the Marquis is like having a great margarita with a tequila floater. If we are going to turn the island of Manhattan into Margaritaville, Times Square seems the perfect place to drop anchor after our voyage from La Jolla, New Orleans, Houston and Chicago," Buffett said in a statement. "I am grateful to all the wonderful people at all levels who participated in the hard work of turning a dream into reality. It's going to be a tropical season in New York. Fins Up!!!!"
Tickets for "Escape to Margaritaville" are available now for groups of 12 or more (www.broadway.com/groups) and will go on sale to the general public on June 26 via www.ticketmaster.com or by calling 1-877-250-2929. American Express card holders can access tickets from 10 a.m. June 13 through 10 a.m. June 20. Tickets will go on sale to Audience Rewards members from 10 a.m. June 20 through 10 a.m. June 26.
