Top ranked bowler @placeholder finished off the job as England battled to salvage pride and a draw on the final day. | (CNN) -- It was first blood to South Africa in their battle for cricket supremacy with No.1 ranked England as the tourists wrapped up an innings and 12 runs rout in the first Test at The Oval Monday. South Africa will usurp England as the best Test team in the world with victory in the three-match series and took a giant step towards that goal with their decisive victory.

Two Democratic sources said the deal includes a proposal to replace the public option by creating a not-for-profit private insurance option overseen by the federal Office of Personnel Management, much like the current health plan for federal workers, and another allowing people 55 or older to buy into Medicare coverage that currently is available to those 65 or older.

Frank Hatley was ordered to make back payments even after he learned a teenager wasn't his son. Frank Hatley, 50, spent 13 months in jail for being a deadbeat dad before his release last month.

Last week, Cook County Superior Court Judge Dane Perkins signed an order stating, "defendant is no longer responsible for paying any amount of child support."

Obama acknowledged Thursday that expanding sanctions to target Russia's financial services, energy, mining, defense and engineering industries would impact U.S. and @placeholder companies that do business with Russia in the connected global economy. | (CNN) -- President Barack Obama wrapped up a European trip dominated by Russia's annexation of Crimea by shifting the focus of the U.S. and allied response to helping Ukraine rather than confronting Moscow. "I've been very clear in saying that we are going to do everything we can to support Ukraine and the Ukrainian people," Obama said Thursday at his final European news conference of the trip, this time in Rome with Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. "But I think it's also important for us not to promise and then not to be able to deliver." While Obama pledged tougher sanctions on Russia if President Vladimir Putin continued his expansionist ways, he emphasized steps that don't involve the Russians -- such as Thursday's announcement that the International Monetary Fund would lend Ukraine up to $18 billion.

Yet @placeholder is refusing to look so far ahead as he says the early rounds of grand slams can be very testing for the world's leading players. | (CNN) -- World number one Novak Djokovic began his bid to win a second Wimbledon title with a straight sets victory as he focused hard on avoiding a shock Rafael Nadal-style defeat. A day after the Spaniard bowed out against Belgian world No. 135 Steve Darcis, the Serb was in unforgiving mood as he defeated Germany's Florian Mayer 6-3 7-5 6-4. Djokovic was playing his first match since losing a thrilling five-set semifinal at the French Open against Nadal, who went on to win the tournament for a record eighth time. "I watched the bigger part of (the Nadal-Darcis) match and I thought that his opponent played great," Djokovic said.

Casting the net: @placeholder is a glorious location for a family holiday | What is it about islands? Small inhabited lumps of rock are inevitably associated with strange goings on. Think Dr Moreau and the Wicker Man, the Famous Five and, er, Pitcairn. Islands are home to mysteries, buried treasure and dark secrets. I have never been to an island I’ve disliked. Jersey, the Anglo-Norman statelet in the Bay of Mont St Michel is no different. A few years ago there were hysterical stories about satanic cults – fantasies which evaporated under scrutiny. A place of poise and majesty: Jersey's grand history is visible in structures such as Mount Orgueil Castle Sniffy writers tiresomely refer to the island’s ‘sinister Nazi Past’. They rarely point out that with a ratio of about one German soldier per every two inhabitants during the WW2 occupation, resistance would have been worse than useless.

Both men now register undetectable levels of the virus after treatment in Sydney, according to the University of NSW's Kirby Institute director, Professor David Cooper. In a significant breakthrough for researchers, one of the patients cleared the virus without donor marrow containing a rare gene mutation that protects against HIV. The human immunodeficiency virus, which causes AIDS, became undetectable in both patients about three years after their transplants, Prof Cooper said.
