EUGENE, Ore. (AP) ? Maybe the response just slipped. Or maybe the question completely caught her off guard.

As Allyson Felix sauntered away from the crowd and toward the safety of a restricted area, she actually broke her vow of silence.

"Feeling good," she said in almost a hushed voice. And then she was off again, escorted by coach Bobby Kersee.

Felix is looking solid on the track even in the midst of controversy, winning her semifinal heat at Olympic trials on Friday.

Same with training partner Jeneba Tarmoh, who moments earlier captured her race convincingly, too.

After the 200 final Saturday, these two sprinters will finally address what everyone is anxious to know: Just how they will break their third-place tie in the 100 and decide who earns the final spot to the London Games in the event.

A runoff? A flip of the coin?

Soon, there will be a choice. Maybe even something as simple as one of them surrendering the spot to the other.

The controversy has overshadowed everything at the trials.

Including this: Some of the biggest names in U.S. sprinting were missing from the starting blocks in the opening round of the men's 200 meters. Justin Gatlin and Tyson Gay were expected to sit out this race after securing spots to London in the 100.

But the absence of Olympic bronze medalist Walter Dix was a bit of a surprise. Dix was hampered by a lingering left hamstring injury that slowed him in the 100, but he thought he might be ready for the 200.

Now, Dix's only option for making it to London will be as a member of the 400 relay team.

Dix tweeted his disappointment Friday at not being able to run and later that he heard he had been nominated for an ESPY Award in the category of best track and field athlete: "It's an honor!!! Thanx for the love and support...very much appreciated."

This was one of the sprinters the Americans were counting on, too, especially after Dix captured bronze in both the 100 and 200 in Beijing.

"We're missing Tyson, Walter and Justin ? that's U.S. best right there," said 34-year-old Doc Patton, who advanced in his heat. "The door is open for anyone in the field right now."

That's one way to look at it. The other is the road to gold may have just gotten a whole lot easier for Jamaican sensation Usain Bolt, the world-record holder who looked so dominant in Beijing and really has no one ? other than perhaps training partner Yohan Blake ? to push him in the 200.

Wallace Spearmon had the fastest 200 time in the prelims, showing he's rounding back into form. Spearmon has been bothered recently by a sore left Achilles tendon.

"It's the first round. You're not supposed to run that hard," Spearmon said. "It was a good run."

In the only finals on Friday, University of Colorado standout Emma Coburn won the steeplechase and Jillian Camarena-Williams captured the shot put crown.

But these days and at these trials, the overriding topic is the one involving Felix and Tarmoh. Just how they're going to settle the matter is something that's now been hanging over the competition for the last week.

USA Track and Field didn't have any procedure in place to break the dead heat. Immediately after the 100 race last Saturday, the organization quickly scrambled to put together some options for the athletes.

The sprinters have elected to not say anything until after the 200. That way, they can focus on making the team in that event.

Only, Felix blabbed ? if two words can be considered that.

Usually so polite and always open to talk, Felix has been hurried away by Kersee the past two days. He's highly protective of both his sprinters, also whisking away Tarmoh with an arm around her shoulder.

But maybe Kersee is softening, too, with the resolution so close. As he ushered Felix away, he was asked how Felix is looking.

Without even turning around, Kersee raised his right arm and gave a thumbs-up.

All the attention may be on Tarmoh and Felix heading into the final, but they have some pretty tenacious competition. Carmelita Jeter will be a factor along with Sanya Richards-Ross, who won the 400 earlier at trials. She keeps getting stronger with every round.

"I felt good. My body felt really good," Richards-Ross said after turning in the top time of 22.15 seconds in the semis. "Yesterday I was little tight and today I felt fresh.

"Hopefully, tomorrow I'll go even faster and put together another great race to win it."

Hyleas Fountain leads the heptathlon after the first day of competition, while reigning Olympic champion Angelo Taylor had the top time in the semis of the 400 hurdles. The qualifying round of the 110 hurdles went as expected with Aries Merritt, Jason Richardson, David Oliver and David Payne all advancing.

"There were some nerves involved and I just have to stay focused," Merritt said.

How to bend it like Beckham: Physics students calculate perfect soccer ball kicking formula

ScienceDaily (June 29, 2012) ? Now that David Beckham won't be appearing at the London 2012 Olympics, other members of Team GB wanting to brush up on their free-kicks can rest easy.

University of Leicester physics students have published a paper which sets out the optimum way of kicking a football (soccer ball) in order to make it bend into the goal.

The ex-England captain's curling free-kicks became legendary, and even inspired the title of the 2002 film Bend It Like Beckham.

Now, four master's students at the University of Leicester's Department of Physics and Astronomy believe they have discovered a formula to explain how the football curves when a player puts spin on it.

Jasmine Sandhu, Amy Edgington, Matthew Grant and Naomi Rowe-Gurney found a relationship between the amount a football bends in the air, the speed it is travelling and the angular velocity -- or "spin" -- applied to the ball.

When a football spins in the air, it is subjected to a force called the Magnus force -- which causes it to curl sideways from the direction it was originally kicked.

The group found that the distance a ball bends (D) as a result of this force is related to the ball's radius (R), the density of air (?), the ball's angular velocity (?), it's velocity through the air (v), it's mass (m) and the distance travelled by the ball in the direction it was kicked (x).

For instance, if a player standing 15 metres away from the byline kicked an average football so that it was travelling at a velocity of 35 metres per second and had an angular velocity of 10 revolutions per second, the ball would bend around 5 metres towards the goal.

As a result, the player would probably need to bring a tape measure -- as well as a measure of their own abilities -- if they wanted to put the theory into practice during a game!

Jasmine Sandhu, 22, who studies Physics with Space Science and Technology, said: "Whilst researching new ideas for a paper I read about how physics influences various aspects of football, from the clothing they wear to the effects of playing at high altitude.

"The article discussed how a new design of ball, used in the 2010 World Cup, has three dimensional moulding of the panels in order to produce a more rounded ball, thus affecting the spin that can be imparted.

"This prompted us to examine how footballers use spin on the ball, and the factors which influence how much the path of the ball would bend.

"These findings made me more aware of how I can use spin to bend the ball in a game of football. In addition, this research is also relevant to other sports, such as tennis, which shows that physics definitely gives you the edge!"

The paper was published in this year's University of Leicester Journal of Special Physics Topics, which features original short papers written by students in the final year of their four-year Master of Physics degree.

?These reforms (to refugee health coverage) allow us to protect public health and safety, ensure that tax dollars are spent wisely and defend the integrity of our immigration system all at the same time.??Immigration Minister Jason Kenney, June 27, 2012

When refugees or asylum seekers arrive in Canada, they receive basic health-care coverage and access to supplemental services such as pharmaceutical, dentistry, and vision care. But?beginning on June 29, under reforms to the Interim Federal Health Program, this coverage will be scaled back. Way back. The biggest change is that refugees who are brought to Canada or who arrive here from countries the government considers ?unsafe? will lose their supplemental health care benefits, such as the drug coverage. As well, rejected refugee claimants who are waiting to go home and those who arrive from countries the government has declared ?safe? will basically lose all access to health care, unless their condition poses a risk to public health and safety.

Health professionals across the country are incensed about the changes, saying they amount to an inhumane, public-health disaster. Our Immigration Minister, Jason Kenney, maintains that this is a cost-cutting measure that will lead to $100 million in savings over the next five years, not to mention that the changes will actually protect public health and safety and deter health tourists from gaming the system.

Leaving impassioned rhetoric aside, Science-ish wanted to consider the evidence for refugees and health tourism, and what happens when you take health-care coverage away from people. Unfortunately, there wasn?t much: these reforms, it seems, are more ideology-based than rooted in good evidence.

Dr. Merrick Zwarenstein, senior scientist at the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences, noted that the paucity of experimental studies speaks to a wider problem?concerning?our evidence for policies: it?s poor. ?There?s a complete contradiction between how we decide what drugs work and how we decide on what policies and programs work,? he said. With the drugs, we use science, testing them with randomized controlled trials to try to get unbiased answers about their effectiveness. Not so with policies. We may do follow-up studies or track outcomes, but we usually don?t bother with randomization.

He thinks there are a few reasons for this, the major one being the lack of political will. ?Policymakers are elected and promoted not on the basis of whether a policy works, but whether a policy is popular and electable,? says Dr. Zwarenstein. ?So they are less interested in outcome, which often occurs years down the tracks after they have moved on.? Plus, he added, ?Citizens are partly to blame because we don?t insist on a society in which we make the best use of the resources we have. We make decisions often on ideological grounds, when often these are not ideological questions. These are questions of pure pragmatism.?

The refugee health example is a case in point. Those who study evidence-informed policy making suggested looking to the U.S., since they?ve done some of the most robust experimental studies on the impact of moving people with no health-care insurance to coverage. This could be similar to the situation many refugees find themselves in when they arrive in Canada. One ongoing study in Oregon, which looks at citizens who are randomly assigned to health insurance, found that the insured spent an average of 25 per cent more on health care than the uninsured. So, it seems, leaving people without coverage could save on upfront costs, as Minister Kenney suggested.

Still, the insured in the Oregon study reported feeling healthier and happier than those who did not get coverage. They were less anxious about their well being, and there was a sharp decline in their medical debt and medical bills being sent to collection agencies. In other words, they were both more financially and physically sound. This left Katherine Baicker, an economist on the study, to note: ?It?s up to society to determine whether it?s worth the cost.?

Our federal government grappled with the question of coverage for refugees and asylum seekers, and determined that it wasn?t worth the cost. Dr. Zwarenstein suggested that while other countries?including the U.K. and the U.S.?are moving to answer policy questions with the same rigour as pharmaceutical ones, Canada lags behind. At a time when we know more about the effects of drugs on our bodies than policy changes on our collective well being, the decision to chip away at the Interim Federal Health Program was made on the basis of political and ideological grounds. We should do better, especially with questions that determine who gets to live and who dies.

News organizations don't all get ruling right

NEW YORK (AP) ? A bid for speed in reporting the Supreme Court's decision on President Barack Obama's health care law has tripped up some news organizations.

Both CNN and Fox News Channel incorrectly reported Thursday that the law's central provision, requiring virtually all Americans to have health insurance, had been struck down. Both networks backtracked when it became clear that the court upheld the provision.

Broadcast networks broke into regular programming to deliver special reports and generally got it right.

To get the news out quickly, competitive news organizations had to wade through pages of legal writing.

Healthcare bill approved, University policy remains the same

In a decision that marks the end of months-long legal debate, the Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of most of the 2010 Affordable Care Act, including its controversial individual mandate.

The healthcare bill, more widely known as ?Obamacare,? has faced scrutiny since its initial passage in 2009. The individual mandate, which required citizens to either purchase healthcare or face fines, was among the most controversial of the law?s provisions.

Ferdinand Schlapper, director of Boynton Health Service at the University of Minnesota, said that in keeping the law the federal government now parallels Boynton?s belief in the importance of the healthcare safety net.

The University?s own mandate, which Boynton COO Carl Anderson says has been in effect for 25 years, was not subject to change regardless of the court?s ruling.

He said he feels now that the Supreme Court has come out in favor of Affordable Care, ?our rationale feels like it?s being recognized on a much bigger level.?

?The University is still implementing the comprehensive waiver for fall of 2012, Anderson said, and will require either electronic verification or a certificate of coverage, ?much in the way the government will be doing now for the federal mandate.?

Lenovo LePhone K860 surfaces with quad-core Exynos processor, 5-inch screen, and Android 4.0

This one isn't fully official just yet, but Blog of Mobile has turned up some pictures and specs for a new Lenovo LePhone K860 that would appear to one-up the company's existing offerings. Perhaps most notably, this one is said to pack a quad-core, 1.4GHz Exynos 4412 processor (the same found in some variants of the Galaxy S III), along with a 5-inch screen boasting a 1280 x 720 resolution. Otherwise, you'll apparently get a 2 megapixel camera up front and 8 megapixels 'round back, 1GB of RAM, and Android 4.0 for an OS (no mention of a 4.1 upgade). No indication of a price, but it looks like it will be hitting China in August.

[Thanks, FT]

Jumborizing: a brief history of the R/V Knorr

In the library here, there?s a fabulous oil painting of Ernest R. Knorr, an engineer and cartographer after whom our boat is named. Since her first launch in 1968, the Knorr has logged over a million miles, sailing far enough to go the the moon and back twice.

What a guy.

?

You?ve seen parts of the boat, and you?ll see more in the upcoming weeks as I get lost and find new places, but the general specs are as follows. The vessel is 279 feet long, and has 4 engines. It?s most famous for helping discover the wreck of the Titanic in 1985. Since then, it?s been on all sorts of scientific missions ? including ours.

If you like heavy machinery, the Knorr has two cranes that each lift 60,000 pounds. The ship holds 160,500 gallons of fuel and runs on 2 diesel-electric azimuthing thrusters. The ?azimuthing? part means that the thrusters come in pods that can be rotated 360 degrees. It allows the Knorr to turn really nicely, without a rudder. The ship also has 4 generators ? 3 big ones and a small one. For more techie details, go?here.

The Knorr also makes all of its own water through reverse osmosis, so we have plenty to use for drinking, washing our clothes, and showering. It also means the water is really soft ? which is great for clothes but bad for muscles. The kitchen keeps a constant supply of Gatorade-type stuff for us to refuel our ions that the water just isn?t giving us.

But the coolest thing about the Knorr (I think!) is that between 1989 and 1991, it was ?jumborized.? I don?t know if that?s a real word. A quick Google search spits back ?Jumboprize,? which is apparently some foreign television show featuring karate. It also suggests ?jumbo size,? jumbo rate,? ?jumbo price,? and ?jumbo pizza.? I?m beginning to think the engineer who told me this was messing with me. Thanks a lot, Reggie.

Anyway, in 1989 the Knorr was hauled out of the water, cut into two pieces, pulled apart on big railroad tracks, and filled in with a new segment. That new part was 34 feet long, and inserted right in the middle of the boat. All told, the addition added 50 extra tons to the ship. The official Knorr website calls this the boat?s ?Mid-Life Overhaul.? (There?s no mention of jumborizing?)

I never thought you could just pull a boat apart and stick in a new piece. (That certainly didn?t work nearly as well for the dudes at Top Gear when they tried the same thing with cars to make limos.)

Turns out the Knorr is scheduled to retire soon. Her replacement is being built right now, but it will be a bit smaller overall and have a smaller main lab. After the mid-life jumborization and over a million miles of seafaring, she probably deserves a rest.

During this trip, I?ll be answering your questions about the science, this boat, and life onboard. Want to know how we search for plankton, why we?re here, or what the food is like? Just ask me!

Double amputee soldier takes command of Fort Belvoir

Col. Gregory Gadson, right, attends a ceremony where he assumes command of U.S. Army Fort Belvoir. He is sitting next to outgoing commander Col. John Strycula, left, and Lt. Gen. Michael Ferriter, center, at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, outside Washington, D.C. on Monday.

By Kari Huus, msnbc.com

A soldier injured by an improvised explosive device?in Iraq in 2007 became the first double amputee to take?command of a major military installation, the Army reported on its home page on Wednesday.

Col. Gregory Gadson officially assumed command of 47,000-troop-strong Fort Belvoir, Va.,?on Monday.

The West Point graduate lost both his legs above the knees and suffered a severe injury to his right arm when his vehicle hit an IED on May 7, 2007, as he returned?from a memorial service for fellow soldiers in Baghdad, according to the army report.

---

Gadson, who wears two prosthetics with what the military calls "next-generation powered knees," requested to stay on active duty after his injuries rather than take medical retirement, it said. He spent two years heading up the Army Wounded Warrior program.

"He was able to reassure personally those newly wounded who are looking down a long road to recovery and to motivate soldiers and civilians alike," said Lt. Gen. Michael Ferriter, who presented Gadson his command colors at the fort, just outside Washington, D.C.

"He has shown that it isn't about what you cannot do, it's about what you can do," Ferriter said, according to the army report. "He's able to lead and get right to things that need to happen."

Gadson served in the?Army for more than 20 years as a field artillery officer, according to a profile on the Fort Belvoir web site. His military career has?included deployments to Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm in Kuwait, Operation Joint Forge in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Prior to his injuries in Iraq in 2007, he was commanding a new unit as part of the surge to secure Baghdad.

The Fort Belvoir web site said outgoing commander Col. John Strycula, who headed up the installation for two years, was heading?to Afghanistan for his next assignment.

The SPORTS PHILOSOPHER says: 'Never pass up a sales ...

???????Just got back from an 8-day driving vacation with my boy.? ?Epic stuff. ??Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, and back to Minnesota in less than 8 days. ??Yes, it was great. ??Yes, we had many exciting, thrill-packed adventures. ??Yes, it was totally heartwarming. ??How heartwarming? ??Like this being the first time I ever let my boy drive a car. ??In a deserted church parking lot in Luxemburg, Minnesota, of all places. ??Anyway, he drove the car. ??(My son is driving??.egad!)

???? And yes, one of Life?s genuine bonuses, there was plenty of humor to be found in the simple daily study of the ?Human Condition?, as I like to call it. ???Like the time in Park Rapids, Minnesota, when this girl counter-clerk at a ?Kum & Go? market (yes, I?m not kidding and yes, the Midwest has dozens of them and yes, that?s really how they spell it) told us that in the town of Nevis, six miles away, there was the biggest fish in the whole United States. ??I pressed her for details, where was it caught, how long ago, is it stuffed and mounted etc., but all she would say is, ?You?ll see. ??Just head right up the main street, can?t miss it. ??It?s totally worth the drive.?? It?s the biggest fish in America!? ?Just go there and see it!? ??So on her say-so I drove the six miles. ??Well, it was a big fish all right?.but not a real fish. ??It was merely a 20-foot-long cement statue of a fish.? ?Alongside the road.?? A cement fish.?? ?Painted yellow.

The Twins

???? I wanted to go back to that Park Rapids Kum & Go and ring the girl?s neck, but my level-headed son restrained me.

???? And then there was the time in Eagan, Minnesota, at a Kentucky Fried Chicken store, when the clerk let our food sit there on the counter to get cold and stale?ten feet away from our waiting mouths?while he looked all over the store for some plastic forks and a clean tray.? ?There were no clean trays so he washed one. ??Slowly.?? Then he went into the back of the store to perform some other nebulous, time-consuming errand. ??Well, we finally got our ?food?. ??But this time it was me restraining my son. ??(You don?t get between a growing boy and his daily grub, people.)

???? But the funniest one (or maybe it?s so sad it?s not so funny, I go back and forth on it) occurred in Excelsior, Minnesota, my own late mother?s home town. ??We were sitting in the Excelsior Grill, having just ordered a breakfast sandwich (for Rob) and pancakes and bacon (for me). ??It took me a long time to get our waitress to understand what we wanted. ??That should have been my first warning clue. ??I had to tell her large orange juice not small orange juice three times.

???? Anyway, ten minutes go by, and no sign of food. ??Finally she half toddles and half waddles over (her rear carriage was as broad as a wide-screen TV), and she smiles and says, ?Have you decided??

? ????Decided what?? I rejoin.

???? ?I mean can I take your order now?? she re-queries.

???? Rob looks at me, I look at Rob, we both look at her.

???? ?You already took my order,? I say.

???? ?I did?? she says.

???? I thought Rob was going to explode, but the lad controlled himself.? ?Even more amazingly, so did I.

???? So she ran back to her station, found the order slip (she still could not remember, apparently, the large vs. small orange juice fiasco), and was so apologetic and embarrassed that later I gave her a jumbo-sized tip. ??Poor girl.

???? I?m not going to say all Midwesterners are dumb or anything like that. ??Being a born and bred Midwesterner myself, that would condemn me by association. ??But please allow me, for a moment, to just metaphorically shake my head in wonder.?? I?m sure you?re doing the same.

???? Anyway, regarding Sports (this of course being a half sports, half philosophy column), I had thought that the signature sports moment of the trip would come in Fargo, North Dakota, at the Roger Maris Museum honoring Fargo?s favorite son. ??And the Maris Museum was good, though not spectacular. ??For one thing, it?s not a museum.? ?It?s just a bunch of jerseys and trophies pertaining to the old Yankee home run king on display in a large picture window in the middle of a Fargo shopping mall. ??That?s it. ??Oh, plus a delightful little theater the size of a bathroom, where they play this continuous loop of Roger?s life every 20 minutes all day long.? ?I did tear up, choke up, and break down a little bit when they showed Rog returning to Yankee Stadium at the end of his life, to the unrestrained cheers he never got when he had the audacity to break Babe Ruth?s single-season home run record. ??I get so emotional in my old age?.

???? But no. ??The Maris Museum was not the sports highlight of the trip. ??That came at Target Field in Minneapolis. ??I had pre-ordered tickets to a Minnesota Twins/Milwaukee Brewers game, which now makes eight baseball stadiums around the country I have taken my boy to over the years. ??And a beautiful stadium it was. ??Complete with terrific bronze statues of all-time greats like Harmon Killebrew, Rod Carew, and Kirby Puckett. ??And great seats! ??Right behind the dugout, with crisp vendor service, fresh food, and thickly padded chairs. ??Padded. ???Like resting one?s arse upon great tuffets of marshmallow.? ?I hope some pimply-faced Dodger Stadium exec is reading this?.

???? It was a decent game. ??The National League?s best player, Milwaukee?s Ryan Braun, was nice enough to pound out two home runs and a double for us, thus making the game memorable forever for my boy. ??But what made it special for the Sports Philosopher is what happened in the stands, as in where we were sitting.

???? These three post-college fellas were sitting right next to me.? ?Mid-twenties guys. ???Minnesota natives all. ??We got to talking early on, and it was obvious they knew their baseball, so there was no need for me to instruct them in the finer points of the game. ??Rather I let them instruct me on the current state of Twins baseball in this new millennium of ours, with yours truly only contributing something if and when it fit in with their three-way lecture. ??These were smart, rugged, boisterous young men, and they were a pleasure to talk to and listen to.

???? Finally, near the end of the game, ?long about the 8th inning I believe, they got the idea from our talk that I was an L.A. father currently engaged in driving his 15-year-old son around the upper Midwest, looking for fun and educational things to do. ??They rattled off the usual Minnesota staples, i.e. all the Paul Bunyan statues, the Mississippi River headwaters, various parks, fishing, camping etc. ??And then, one of the lads suddenly pipes up with gusto, ?I know what you can do. ??We?ve got a really good track here. ??You should go.?

???? ?A, uh, track you say?? says I, curiously and haltingly.

???? ?Yeah, a racetrack!? he volleys back.? ??Horses!? ?It?s called Canterbury Downs, right down the road, one of the best tracks in the country. ??Take your kid there tomorrow!?

???? Not wanting to tell this eager chap that Canterbury Downs is little more than a milk-run bullring course compared to storied local tracks like our own Santa Anita and Hollywood Park, I play dumb and let them have their moment, despite my whimsical kid jabbing me in the ribs to tell them what I know. ??But I hold off. ??Because it?s just too perfect.? ?I?ll be darned,? is all I say, and quite theatrically I imagine.

???? And then comes the moment I was waiting for:

???? ?Sir, have you ever even been to a racetrack???? one of the lads inquires with great urgency.

???? And now Rob looks at me and I look at him, he starts to smile, his face twists up with the same impish glee as when our Excelsior Grill waitress had her Alzheimer?s moment, but I ?shhh? him, and then I turn back to the three twenty-somethings and re-query, ?Do you boys enjoy reading fiction??

???? I have found, over time, that this is a question almost no adult will ever answer ?no? to out loud. ??Out of both embarrassment and pride. ??But it is also a question that most people?say, under either threat of torture or the influence of truth serum?would truthfully answer ?no? to as if they were being asked do you like Hitler. ??But with no truth serum available, naturally they all nodded their heads yes. ??Three fine young men of letters.?? Three confirmed fiction readers. ??Sure.

???? So I called their collective bluff.? ?I stood, pulled free my wallet, and pulled out three business cards. ??And my business card, as it so happens, is simply and solely an information card on how to go about ordering my novel, which deals (in part) with life at the racetrack.? ?It?s called WHERE GODS GAMBLE. ??I passed out the three cards. ??And these cards, to even further crystallize the moment, even feature an illustration of two racehorses and their jockeys battling to the wire. ??It was perfect.

???? ?There you go, boys,? I said.? ??Since you?re so knowledgeable about the track and since you love reading fiction so much, this novel should be a natural for you.?

???? Their mouths fell open.

???? When they recovered their senses they started asking me questions. ??Lots of questions. ??Soon they had been informed that I had already been to literally dozens of different racecourses on this continent and three others, that I had been to the track literally hundreds and hundreds of times, that I had relentlessly pursued this lifelong hobby at racecourses from L.A. to Melbourne to Nairobi, to Paris, to Baden-Baden, to all over England, Scotland, and Ireland, as well as Toronto, New York, West Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Oakland, San Diego, Tijuana, and back to L.A. again. ??And that most of these visits to the track occurred before any of them were born. ??To say the lads were stunned is to state only the obvious. ??Rob did a good job of not giggling. ??(But later on he gushed forth his laughter: ?Dad, it was all I could do to not to burst out laughing when that guy asked you if you?d ever been to a racetrack!? he said.? ??Me too,? I said back to him.)

???? When the Twins finally made the last out of their 6-2 defeat to the hated Brew Crew we all stood, shook hands, and wished each other well.

???? ?Enjoy the book, fellas,? I said, as they all had vigorously promised (remember, no truth serum) to buy the damn thing.

???? To which one of the lads replied, ?I can?t believe we actually asked you if you?d ever gone to the track and here you?d written a whole book about it! ??What are the odds of that??

???? ?Yes, life can be very amusing,? I agreed.

???? On the way back to the hotel, Rob asked me: ?Dad, do you think those guys will really buy your book??

???? A fair question.? ??Probably not, son,? I said honestly. ???But stranger things have happened. ??Maybe. ??Let?s just decide to pretend that they will.?

???? To which he rejoined, ?So what are we doing for dinner??

???? As many of you know, I usually like to end these parables and life-lessons with some kind of axiom the dedicated reader can take with him (or her) into the future.?? Or at least provide, hopefully, some crumb of genuine Enlightenment for those with a genuine thirst for knowledge.

???? This time it?s easy.

???? Here it is: Everyone should have a copy of WHERE GODS GAMBLE on his or her living room bookshelf.?? The world would be a better place.?? Certainly no worse.

???? Ordering information is provided below. ??Enjoy.

When You Do Home Improvement You Need To Make The Right ...

It can be very satisfying to complete DIY home improvement projects. In addition to saving money that would have been spent hiring a person to do the job for you, you will get a sense of pride that you can do something by yourself. While this can be rewarding, it?s important to make sure you?re truly ready and qualified to take on any home repairs or improvements before starting. If you need some help for reaching better success with the DIY home improvement projects that you take on, this is the article for you.

Before you get started on any kind of DIY home improvement undertaking, be certain that it is practicable and that you have enough know-how and amount of time to complete it. The idea of taking on a large project is something many homeowners are zealous about and then they either lose their oomph amidst it or learn that it was much trickier than they had imagined. Some projects take much more time and talent than others and you should truly think this over before you start work. If necessary, ask the advice of someone experienced at this kind of task. It is more excellent to not even start a project or hire someone else than to start it, than to never finish.

One way to make a big difference in how your rooms look is by putting in new carpets. Not all home improvement jobs can be accomplished by the home owner, but this one can.

You can save yourself quite a bit of money, because having carpet installed professionally is quite expensive. Doing your own work for home improve gives you the opportunity to invest in better quality or just save money on the total project. Making your selection should be done carefully, because carpet comes in many different varieties. Before choosing the material or color, consider how it will go with the rest of your home, including the walls and furniture. Carpet installation, when you do it yourself, is a matter of having the proper tools, and expending a little effort.

The whole purpose of DIY projects is to cut costs so you can save money. At the same time, don?t skimp on quality when choosing tools or materials.

Items that are used or recycled and have good quality can be used, but don?t let the results of the project be affected by cheap materials. A good example of this is choosing paint for either interior or exterior paint jobs. Cheap paint may save you a few dollars, but it won?t look as good nor last as long as high quality paint. Similarly, if you?re buying tiles for your floor, don?t buy materials that are so cheap that they?ll crack within a year or two. To put it briefly, when it comes to DIY home improvement projects, the most lucrative are those that get carefully planned beforehand. Although you may be planning to do all of the work yourself, don?t be too terrified to ask for recommendations if you need them. Additionally, you should scrutinize a variety of information materials that concern any kind of project you haven?t ever done before. Quite often, DIY home improvement are the most budget-friendly and realistic maneuvers to making your home more charming and comfy.

India: Taj Mahal Dawn, Agra, Utlar Pradesh

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.

Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?

China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.

Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.

Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.

I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.

The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.

China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.
