One of my favorite vacation memories was the Thai foot massage and Internet access salons in Bangkok, followed up by my testing cellphone coverage while wading in Provincetown Harbor on Cape Cod.

You see these young people in Antigonish who are coming from Cape Breton, and these are really smart, attractive young people, who are living in a place that's been very rough economically. It's a very special thing to be helpful there.

I live in Cape Town but my favourite holiday destination is Hermanus, a little seaside town about a 90-minute drive away, over the pass and down to the sea, on the sunshine coast. It's where I love to escape to with my wife for a weekend every now and again.

My mother was a member of the Cape Coloured community. 'Coloured' is the South African word for the half-caste community that was a by-product of the early contact between black and white.

On Cape Cod, great white shark stocks have been growing, or at least becoming more concentrated, because of the multiplying numbers of seals around Monomoy Island. We are fortunate to have such abundance of these sharks in our own waters. Around the globe, we are killing in excess of 100 million sharks each year.

My first memory in life is grilling my thumb to the griddle in our restaurant on Cape Cod.

One of the major difficulties is that, as the head of a major corporation once said to me, Australia is on the way to Antarctica.

But let's just see what we can get.

(My headband) is like my cape. If you knock a superhero's cape off, they become very angry. My cape got knocked off.

Obviously, it'd be a challenge to move a ton of people off Cape Cod. But I don't think a full evacuation of the Cape would ever be necessary.

I didn't make the adjustment overnight. Obviously, you work out with a wood bat during batting practice in college and go out to summer leagues like the Cape Cod and the Jayhawk so you actually get 150-200 at-bats using wood. It was kind of a gradual thing for me.

There are only about 50 fashion capitals in the world and Cape Town is one of them.

Because of the geography and the way the Cape sticks into the ocean, we definitely have our own sub-climate. We freeze later and thaw earlier.

Here we can brag and bluster and blather and almost like a comic book character you could invent, Captain Bombast, pull the cape around the shoulders and shout the magic words, "Get him." And rise above it all in a blast of hot air.

We lost that one in Cape Town and that's in the back of everyone's mind, and being at home we want to do well,

He worked hard to support the United Democratic Front when it was formed to step into the gap left by the long silencing of the ANC and attended its launch in Cape Town and said it caught the ruling National Party off-guard.

Over the last few years when we played (in the postseason), then Wilmington and North Andover this year in Division 2A, there were three leagues from the South and the Cape Ann League, and only one from the North.

It has been a strange start, to have to fly the boat to Cape Town.

We had one make a direct strike, in 1821. We believe, by all records, it was a Category 3, with 112 mph sustained winds. It looks like it came ashore in Cape May, essentially following the current path of the Garden State Parkway. It devastated the state and Philadelphia.

We're going to see Lake Gibson in district, region and state and we're going to see Cape Coral again in the state tournament. So we're going to have to be tough and we're going to have to develop an edge. But I think we're there and we can do that.

Duncan will be touching down in Cape Town, and getting straight back on the next available flight. He will definitely be back in India for the next one-day international.

I?m relieved that I got through another amazing Southern Ocean trip in one piece, but also somewhat sad.
