|American Standard Version 1901 (ASV).
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB, which is also in the Public Domain.
The ASV uses "Jehovah" for God's proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translation problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.

|King James Version (KJV)
"In 1604, King James I of England authorized that a new translation of the Bible into English be started. It was finished in 1611, just 85 years after the first translation of the New Testament into English appeared (Tyndale, 1526). The Authorized Version, or King James Version, quickly became the standard for English-speaking Protestants. Its flowing language and prose rhythm has had a profound influence on the literature of the past 300 years." - Gospel Communications Network

Bible in English (BBE)
1949-1964 Bible In Basic English
The form in which the Bible is given here is not simply another example of the Bible story put into present-day English. The language used is Basic English.
Basic English, produced by Mr. C. K. Ogden of the Orthological Institute, is a simple form of the English language, which with 850 words, is able to give the sense of anything, which may be said in English. By the addition of 50 Special Bible words and the use of 100 words listed as giving most help in the reading of English verse, this number has been increased to 1000 for the purpose of putting the Bible into Basic English.
Working with the Orthological Institute, a Committee under the direction of Professor S. H. Hooke, Professor Emeritus of Old Testament Studies in the University of London, has been responsible for a new English form of the Bible made from the Hebrew and the Greek.
In this undertaking, the latest ideas and discoveries in connection with the work of putting the Bible into other languages were taken into account, and when the Basic form was complete a Committee formed by the Syndics of the Cambridge University Press reviewed it in detail.
The Basic Bible, which in this way was watched over by two separate groups of experts through its different stages, is designed to be used wherever the English language has taken root.
Frequently, the narrow limits of the word-list make it hard to keep the Basic completely parallel with the Hebrew and the Greek; but great trouble has been taken with every verse and every line to make certain that there are no errors of sense and no loose wording. It is only natural that, from time to time, some of the more delicate shades of sense have not been covered; on the other hand, it is well to keep in mind that in the Authorised Version the power and music of the language sometimes take so much of the reader's attention that these more delicate shades are overlooked.
In fact, the Basic expert is forced, because of the limited material with which he is working, to give special care to the sense of the words before him. There is no question of the Basic work taking the place of the Authorised Version or coming into competition with it; but it may be said of this new English Bible that it is in a marked degree straightforward and simple and that these qualities give it an independent value.

|Darby English Bible
Darby's Holy Scriptures, A New Translation from the Original Languages was published originally in two parts: the New Testament (1884) and the New Testament (1890). These are English translations of a collation done on his earlier German and French translations. Both are posthumous, as John Nelson Darby himself died in 1882. This current e-text reflects the even more recent Guildford/London edition of 1961. For more information click here.

|Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
The Bible text designated YLT is from the 1898 Young's Literal Translation by Robert Young who also compiled Young's Analytical Concordance. This is an extremely literal translation that attempts to preserve the tense and word usage as found in the original Greek and Hebrew writings. The text was scanned from a reprint of the 1898 edition as published by Baker Book House, Grand Rapids Michigan. The book is still in print and may be ordered from Baker Book House. Obvious errors in spelling or inconsistent spellings of the same word were corrected in the computer edition of the text.

|New American Standard Bible (NASB)
In the history of English Bible translations, the King James Version is the most prestigious. This time-honoured version of 1611, itself a revision of the Bishops' Bible of 1568, became the basis for the English Revised Version appearing in 1881 (New Testament) and 1885 (Old Testament). The American counterpart of this last work was published in 1901 as the American Standard Version. The ASV, a product of both British and American scholarship, has been highly regarded for its scholarship and accuracy. Recognizing the values of the American Standard Version, the Lockman Foundation felt an urgency to preserve these and other lasting values of the ASV by incorporating recent discoveries of Hebrew and Greek textual sources and by rendering it into more current English. Therefore, in 1959 a new translation project was launched, based on the time-honoured principles of translation of the ASV and KJV. The result is the New American Standard Bible.
Translation work for the NASB was begun
in 1959. In the preparation of this work numerous other translations
have been consulted along with the linguistic tools and literature of
biblical scholarship. Decisions about English renderings were made by
consensus of a team composed of educators and pastors. Subsequently,
review and evaluation by other Hebrew and Greek scholars outside the
Editorial Board were sought and carefully considered.

|Webster's Bible (English)
Noah Webster: America's first grammarian and founding father of American education. In 1828 Noah Webster published the `American Dictionary of the English Language". This dictionary demonstrates the Christian values, which were found in America's educational and scholarly systems. It is from this early dictionary that we have today's popular "Webster Dictionary".
In 1833 Noah Webster, who had mastered 20 languages including Hebrew and Greek, published the King James Authorized Version "with amendments to the language". In stating his reasons for producing this version of the Bible, Webster said:
In the present version, the language is, in general, correct and perspicuous; ...in many passages uniting sublimity with beautiful simplicity. In my view, the general style of the version ought not to be altered. But, in the lapse of two or three centuries, changes have taken place, which, in particular passages, impair the beauty; in others, obscure the sense, of the original languages...they do not present to the reader the Word of God.... My principal aim is to remedy this evil.
It was with cautious reverence that Webster corrected misused grammar, removed offensive terms and expressions, and substituted commonly understood words for words that had fallen into disuse, or no longer carried the same meaning.
In 1834, the year after completing the Webster Bible, Noah Webster wrote a companion piece titled "Value of the Bible and Excellence of the Christian Religion - For the Use of Families and Schools".
Webster, who was considered "The schoolmaster to a nation", and produced the earliest spellers and textbooks for America's school children, believed Christian religious values and American public education to be inseparable. He believed the Webster Bible to be "the most important enterprise" of his life, and referred to the Bible as:
The chief moral cause of all that is good, and the best corrector of all that is evil, in human society; the best book for regulating the temporal concerns of men, and the only book that can serve as an infallible guide to Future felicity.

London (CNN) -- Phone hacking was "widely discussed" at News of the World, the royal correspondent jailed and sacked for the practice wrote in 2007, according to documents released Tuesday by a Parliament committee investigating the scandal.
The letter was among a string of documents released by the Culture, Media and Sport Committee relating to the scandal.
The committee is highly likely to call News Corp. executive James Murdoch to testify before them again as members try to determine whether he misled them last month about the scale of phone hacking at News of the World and who knew about it, member of Parliament Tom Watson said Tuesday.
Executives at News International -- the British arm of News Corp. that ran the newspaper -- have argued that illegal activities were not widespread.
Documents: Hacking 'widely discussed'
Both James and his father, Rupert Murdoch, as well as former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks, who previously edited News of the World, gave evidence to the committee last month.
James Murdoch ordered the shutdown of News of the World, Britain's best-selling Sunday paper, in July in the face of allegations of illegal eavesdropping and police bribery by its employees. The scandal has led to the resignation of a number of senior police officers and executives at News International.
The letter published Tuesday reveals that while fighting his dismissal from the paper four years ago, former royal correspondent Clive Goodman alleged that "other members of staff were carrying out the same illegal procedures."
The letter, provided to the committee by law firm Harbottle & Lewis, goes on: "This practice was widely discussed in the daily editorial conference, until explicit reference to it was banned by the Editor."
The editor at the time was Andy Coulson, who has denied knowledge of illegal practices while he was at the helm of News of the World. He resigned from that position on the day Goodman was jailed.
Coulson was later appointed Prime Minister David Cameron's spokesman but stepped down at the start of this year amid renewed questions over phone hacking. Coulson was arrested and released on bail last month.
Goodman's letter continues: "Tom Crone and the Editor promised on many occasions that I could come back to a job at the newspaper if I did not implicate the paper or any of its staff in my mitigation plea. I did not and I expect the paper to honour its promise to me."
John Whittingdale, who chairs the parliamentary committee, said after its members met Tuesday that he anticipated James Murdoch, as chairman of News International, would have more questions to answer on the phone-hacking issue.
"James Murdoch clearly is the man who is ultimately responsible for News International in this country," he said to Sky News.
The committee said Tuesday it would call News of the World's former head of legal affairs, Tom Crone, and another former editor, Colin Myler, to give further evidence on September 6, as well as News International's ex-human resources director, Daniel Cloke, and its former director of legal affairs, Jon Chapman.
It will also write to Coulson, Brooks, Stuart Kuttner, who is a former managing editor of News of the World, and Les Hinton, who was Brooks' predecessor at News International, to ask if they wish to add to or amend any of the evidence they have previously given, the committee said.
However, it is unlikely to call back Rupert Murdoch for more testimony, Watson told CNN, as he had "little grasp of the detail" when he gave evidence previously.
Watson said the newly published documents contain some "very serious and explosive" revelations. He also questioned why more was redacted in versions of correspondence provided to the committee by News International than in versions of the same letters provided by Harbottle & Lewis.
A News International statement Tuesday said: "News Corporation's board has set up a Management and Standards Committee, chaired by independent Chairman Lord (Anthony) Grabiner, which is co-operating fully with the Metropolitan Police and is facilitating their investigation into illegal voice mail interception at the News of the World and related issues.
"We recognize the seriousness of materials disclosed to the police and Parliament and are committed to working in a constructive and open way with all the relevant authorities."
Cameron, who has come under pressure over his decision to hire Coulson after he resigned from News of the World, has said he relied on Coulson's assurances that he was unaware of illegal activity.
Responding to the committee's release of correspondence, a Downing Street spokesman said it would be "inappropriate" to comment while investigations were ongoing.
"The prime minister has made his thoughts on Andy Coulson clear," the spokesman said. "He has said that 'if it turns out I have been lied to, that would be the moment for a profound apology. And, in that event, I can tell you I will not fall short.'"
According to his letter, Goodman asked the company to produce copies of e-mails between him and five other people whose names are blacked out in the parliamentary publication of his letter. News International refused the request, according to internal correspondence also published by lawmakers.
Chapman said in internal e-mails that the company had not found evidence to support Goodman's claims in its own trawl of the correspondence, but asked Lawrence Abramson at Harbottle & Lewis to review it to head off the "bad publicity" that could result from allegations the company had "covered up potentially damaging evidence."
Abramson wrote back to Chapman and Cloke on May 25, 2007, to say they did not find any evidence that three people whose names are blacked out "knew that Clive Goodman, Glenn Mulcaire or any other journalists at News of the World were engaged in illegal activities prior to their arrest."
Whittingdale, in his July 29, 2011, letter to Harbottle & Lewis, quotes the firm as having written in 2007 that they had reviewed e-mails "from the accounts of: Andy Coulson, Stuart Kuttner, Ian Edmonson, Clive Goodman, Neil Wallis, Jules Stenson."
The firm told Chapman nothing was found in those e-mails "which appeared to us to be reasonable evidence that Clive Goodman's illegal actions were known about and supported by both or either of Andy Coulson, the Editor, and Neil Wallis, the Deputy Editor, and/or that Ian Edmondson, the News Editor, and others were carrying out similar illegal procedures."
But in a strongly worded statement to lawmakers this month, Harbottle & Lewis emphasized that its review had been strictly limited to the Goodman employment dispute.
"There was absolutely no question of the firm being asked to provide News International with a clean bill of health which it could deploy years later in wholly different contexts for wholly different purposes," Harbottle & Lewis wrote.
Claims that the voice mail of murdered British teenager Milly Dowler was among those hacked by the paper's staff, potentially hindering a police investigation, have sparked particular outrage.
The correspondence released Tuesday reveals that Whittingdale sent James Murdoch a list of 19 questions after his testimony before the committee, ranging from who was on duty at News of the World when Milly Dowler's phone was hacked to what legal fees News International paid for private investigator Glenn Mulcaire.
News International has no record of who edited the 2002 issue of News of the World that included reference to a Milly Dowler voice mail, James Murdoch told British lawmakers in the newly released written evidence.
Brooks, the editor of the paper at the time, was on vacation that week, he said, and the company records do not show who was deputized for her, he said. Peter Smith was night editor, and Neville Thurlbeck, who was arrested earlier this year in connection with the phone-hacking investigation, was news editor.
James Murdoch was asked to provide the written response after additional questions were raised by Myler and Crone. They said Murdoch had been "mistaken" in his testimony regarding an important piece of evidence.
Crone and Myler said they had told Murdoch of an e-mail regarded as central to the question of whether more than one reporter at the paper was involved in illegal activity. Murdoch gave contradictory evidence to the committee.
The e-mail referred to by Crone and Myler is known as the "for Neville" e-mail, so named for its apparent connection to Thurlbeck. It is thought to have played a key role in the decision by executives at News International to agree to an out-of-court settlement with Gordon Taylor, chief executive of the Professional Footballers' Association. James Murdoch admitted in testimony to the parliamentary committee that the payout was for "illegal voice mail interception."
In a letter to Whittingdale released Tuesday, Crone said he believed he had informed James Murdoch of the "for Neville" e-mail in a June 2008 meeting.
He wrote: "Since the 'for Neville' document was the sole reason for settling and, therefore, for the meeting, I have no doubt that I informed Mr. Murdoch of its existence, of what it was and where it came from. I do not recall if I produced it and showed him a copy of it."
Two police investigations are also under way into allegations that journalists from News of the World hacked into voice mails of people ranging from celebrities to crime victims and illegally paid police for information.
A dozen people have been arrested and bailed out in connection with the inquiries.
CNN's Richard Allen Greene, Carol Jordan, Laura Perez Maestro and Laura Smith-Spark contributed to this report.

Private Hear: November 2011
November 2011: Featuring work from Audi, Autotrader, Barclays, Natwest, Ocado and the Bank of Scotland
Russell Ramsay, executive creative director, JWT London
Paul Burke, writer and producer, AMV BBDO
Making radio commercials is very easy. Get hold of a voice-over artist and get him or her to read out the brief. Then lay some music behind and stick a small gag at the end. Simple. This strategy sums up 80 per cent of radio ads made today.
Another 19 per cent is made up of someone singing the brief instead of reading it out. Get a well-known song, then change the lyrics to incorporate the brief. This strategy is popular on TV as well as radio. (See Go Compare, Confused.com, Sheila's Wheels etc - insurance companies are particularly fond of this technique). Then there's the final one per cent where someone has tried to do something new and different. Maybe it's just that the expectations for radio are too low. Get the information over. Do it quick, and everybody's happy.
So let's see if any of this month's entries have managed to do something different.
First up is Autotrader and yes, someone reads out the brief with a piece of music behind - Land of Hope and Glory, I think. Except it's different because it has several people reading out the brief in an array of regional accents: West Country, Scottish, Geordie. They tell me that there are great car deals in my area. They mostly sound like they've never been north of Watford.
Three banks up next. Radio ads for banks can often get bogged down and drawn out with a whole raft of legals stuck on the end. These legals can be buried away on TV in a wall of unreadable text, but, on radio, it's loud and proud. Investments can go down as well as up etc. But they've all got away with it this time because they're talking about things other than money, like opening times and helpful staff, so the regulators can't touch them.
We'll start with Bank of Scotland. The ad begins with a series of sound effects - phone rings, baby cries, car horn beeps etc. - then a gentle Scottish voice tells us that Bank of Scotland know you're busy during the week so they're opening on Saturdays. It's clear, simple and makes its point, but nothing new here.
Nat West is the same format. Sound effects at the beginning - alarm clock, train, typing etc. This one is more rewarding. It cleverly condenses a typical day into about 8 seconds. Then Paul McGann tells us that Nat West have opening hours that fit into my life. No corporate colours or logos possible on radio so a little musical sting from the TV ads aids branding.
Then we move onto the Barclays ad for student accounts. It sounds like something from the early 90s. In fact I remember Nat West ran almost exactly this ad in about 1994. It's patronising and cringe-y. Can't see this one connecting with the student population. Why, oh why, didn't they use Stephen Merchant who they use for their TV ads? He's probably the most entertaining voice-over on TV and would have translated brilliantly to radio. He could have got the same point over but with comedy, wit and charm. He'd also have been much better for branding.
Now for Ocado. A boy band sings the brief. Much like the new Yeo Valley ad, or the Go Compare ad, or thousands of other ads. Somehow the message just gets lost. I remember the tune but not the words. Not sure who they're aiming at with this one at either.
Last of all, Audi and a brand that's close to my heart. Simon Callow reads out the brief with some music behind.
"I'm a creative." Isn't that a ridiculous thing to say? And only in advertising can you say it without being laughed at. In the real world, people think "creative" is an adjective rather than a noun. So "I'm a creative" is a bit like saying, "I'm a clever," or "I'm a sexy". Self-regarding. Grammatically suspect. And yet we've grown accustomed to it.
However, when it comes to radio, it's no good being a "creative"; you need to be a "writer". So why are so few people in creative departments willing to declare themselves "writers"? Is it because, having been recruited from art college, their talents were always more visual than verbal? I hope not, because I've worked with some excellent radio writers. Though I have to say, like heterosexual air stewards, they are few and far between. Fingers crossed that their talents are evident in at least a couple this month's batch. Deep breath. Press "Play".
First up is Auto Express, but there's precious little evidence of writing skill here. Instead, I detect the stale whiff of old chestnut as once again we hear One Message Delivered by Different Accents. It's a trusty old favourite, but if you're going to fall back on it, you really must ensure that all the accents are authentic. These, quite simply, aren't. If the bloke allegedly from Fife really is Scottish, then I'm one of the Bobo people of Wagadodo. Which, oddly enough, I'm not.
I was brought up in Kilburn with four sisters, one of whom was always very particular about clothes. I used to hear her on the phone to her friend Tracy making sure they didn't turn up at the school disco wearing exactly the same skirt. If only the creatives who wrote the NatWest spot had made a similar call to those responsible for Bank of Scotland, they might not have turned up on this page with exactly the same idea. How embarrassing, especially as it's another old stalwart known as Sequence of Sound Effects to Denote Busy Day. NatWest is slightly worse because, not content with an over-used idea, they've added an over-used voiceover.
Barclays, thank goodness, has been a touch more original with an ad for its student account written in Yoofspeak and it's very nicely done. My only niggle is its unwitting suggestion that students who bank with Barclays may enter the workplace needing to learn a few more words like: "Do you want fries with that?".
Ocado have turned I am the Music Man into I am the Ocado Man using a synthesised voice which would have made I am the Ocado Alien slightly more apt. This anodyne little jingle would normally wash over me but, listening carefully, I discover that our smutty little alien is spouting all sorts of nudge-nudge innuendo. Dear God, this must be how it feels to be propositioned by one of the Smash Martians. I now wish I'd just let it wash over me.
The futuristic impression conveyed by Audi is so much better. Well-written and featuring a clear, Teutonic voice whose precise delivery is perfect for the brand. He explains that the new Audi is lighter and more efficient, though I do think the creative team have done something the legendarily efficient German football team would never have done - they've missed a sitter. The voice should have sounded quite heavy at the beginning and been subtly lightened along the way. So please, for me, go back into the studio and tweak it. You've done the writing part admirably, you now need to be a bit more ... "creative".

Energy-based therapies are based on the theory that everyone has a special type of energy that can be worked on for health benefits.
There is no medical evidence that this type of energy exists or that energy-based therapies have any effect on the cancer. Some may be used to try to treat symptoms, but there is no medical evidence that they help. Their most common effects are that some people find them relaxing and calming.
Some energy-based therapies rely on little, if any, physical contact for their effects. Others involve touch or body movements.
Energy-based therapies are available in some hospitals. If you are looking for these therapies somewhere other than in hospital, it is important to check that the therapist or practitioner is trained, registered and insured.

A 20-year-old young man new to the Clinic seen by Dr. Laurie Tolman.
CHIEF COMPLAINT: Skin rash.
HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: He dates this back a week, perhaps two weeks, when he began to develop lesions on his arms, his neck, his trunk. He says there is nothing below the waist. Although it looks rather inflammatory-looking,he says it is completely asymptomatic. No itch. No burn.
No nothing. He is continuing to get some new lesions.
PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: He has never had anything like this before.
MEDICATIONS: Currently he is on no medications.
ALLERGIES: He has no known allergies to medications.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: Complete review of systems is negativeto questioning.
FAMILY HISTORY: Negative.
SOCIAL HISTORY: No significant professional exposured. His sun exposure is moderate. He wears a sunscreen when he is out. Pain assessment is negative today.
PHYSICAL EXAMINATION: He is ........ and does not appear to be in any acute distress. He seems oriented as to person, time, and place. His mood, affect, and grooming appear normal to me.
Examination included the head area, which included scalp,ears, nose, lips, tongue, oral mucous membranes, eyebrows, eyelashes, eyelids, and conjunctivae, the rest of the face, the neck, the trunk anterior and posterior, and the upper and lower extremities bilaterally.
PERTINENT FINDINGS: No nodes were palpable in the neck,supraclavicular, or axillary areas. On his neck, on his extremities and on his trunk, he had erythematous papularlesions. On his trunk and the flank areas, they seemed to follow the skin lines. They were rather uniform in appearance, pink, measuring 0.2 to 0.4 cm. Some of them had a central crusted area. Most of them around his neck had had a crusted appearance.
IMPRESSION: Could this be PLEVA (pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta) or even an inflammatory pityriasis rosea (there was no evidence of a primary lesion for this disease, however).
PLAN: After discussion of a possible diagnosis with the patient a biopsy was performed.

FORT COLLINS — Maybe the school should consider changing its name.
Loveland High School has been used for more than a century now, and it's so easy to name a school after a city. Where's the originality in that, really.
Considering the events of the past nine months, maybe Breaststroke High School is more in order, and it would definitely be up to speed with the current times considering what Brooke Hansen was able to accomplish at the Class 5A State Swimming Championships at EPIC on Saturday.
After being beaten by the best in the world, the sophomore took full advantage of the opportunity to prove she can be the best in the state in an event, blowing away the field in the 100-yard breaststroke from the opening gun.
She posted an All-American time of 1:03.35, lowering her own city mark with a swim that was more than 2 seconds ahead of second-place Amanda Sanders of Monarch, who entered the race as the top seed.
Hansen took care of that early.
"My dad (assistant coach Nick Hansen) just said attack the first 50, and whoever is the toughest on the third 25 is the one who's going to win it," she said. "So I kept focusing on that. My uncle (University of Arizona coach Eric Hansen) last night helped me a lot, told me about my technique and helped perfect it."
The execution of the plan was all on Hansen, and the more she saw it paying dividends, the more she kicked it into gear. Halfway through, she figured she had it won, so she made sure to finish it off in style.
"Actually, I did," she said. "I saw on the first 25 pull I was ahead of her, and when I turned at the 50, I saw her and thought I'm not letting this go, so I pushed harder and harder."
It looked about as close to perfect of a swim as Loveland coach Sharra Schleiger could expect, and it was even more special because it came from someone so young.
"She took out that first 25 way better than yesterday, and I saw some power in her," Schleiger said. "I knew she wanted it. An All-American time and to see that smile on the blocks at such a young age and know what she can accomplish these next two years, I can't wait to see."
Her title gives the school a clean sweep in the event, as Nick Hatanaka won it last year and will be back to defend his title at the boy's state meet. Hansen will have two more attempts at it herself.
It was the second title on the day for the Indians, who witnessed history when Michal Bower became the first diver in state history — male or female — to win four state championships. She was stellar throughout, winning with a score of 486.15.
"I just really felt the pressure. I of all people know a meet is not over until it's over, and three dives left, 18 points really is not that much," Bower said of her lead heading into the finals, eventually winning by 31.5. "And this year, the state, these girls are fantastic. I'm glad I'm graduating now."
In some regards, Hansen could've been looking at a two-championship day, but four-time Olympic gold medalist Missy Franklin was in her other event, the 200 individual medley, swimming for Regis Jesuit. Hansen lowered her city record there, too, posting another All-American time of 2:02.20. Franklin, however, went a national record 1:56.85.
Franklin was worried about backlash, about people saying she would take titles for other girls. In her post-meet press conference she said that was never her intention, she just wanted one more chance to swim with her high school team.
Hansen wasn't bitter in the slightest. Rather, she was thrilled with her swim and walked away with a lifetime memory.
"It was definitely special, and she's just really nice," Hansen said. "It was great how nice she was to everybody and cheering everybody on. I was happy she was here. I wanted to see what she would go, and it's not like everyday you get to say I saw the best swimmer in the world or anything. She inspires a lot of kids and brought everybody in the stands and down here together to watch her race, and I think it made it more exciting."
Franklin, who also broke the state record in winning the 500 free (4:41.72) was especially thrilled with the reaction from and interaction with the other swimmers at the meet.
"It means the world to me," Franklin said. "I had a few swimmers come up to me and just say the most wonderful things this weekend. That means more to me than anything else, is that the girls I'm racing against, that's all the matters to me. I got the most wonderful comments from them."
Hansen was also part of Loveland's two relays, the 200 medley (fourth) and 400 free (eighth) that broke school records, helping to boost the team total to 142, good for sixth. It is the most points an Indians' girls squad has scored at state, and except for Bower, the squad returns intact.
That includes Naomi Einhellig, who was fifth in the 100 backstroke and 14th in the 100 butterfly; Kelly Hatanaka, who was eighth in the 200 IM and eighth in the breaststroke; as well as relay members Heather Waite and Brenda Rhodes.
They were all feeling good about what they accomplished, but they also figure so much more awaits them.
"We have all of our good swimmers coming back; nobody's graduating except Michal, and that's a big one," Einhellig said. "The ones that made it back today … The relays are going to be really exciting next year."
Regis won the team title, beating 2012 champ Fossil Ridge, 287-243. The SaberCats were led by Rhianna Williams. She was one of three two-event champions (50 and 100 free), with Erin Metzger-Seymour of Ralston Valley being the other (200 free and 100 fly).

CU's Bosshard, Air Force's Tyner earn All-American honors at NCAA Championships
DES MOINES, Iowa — It was touted as one of the deepest 10,000 fields in NCAA Outdoor Track and Field history — perhaps ever: three men seeded 27 minutes, 30 seconds or faster, and seven of the top 10 finishers from cross country nationals in the race, too.
So the race was far different from the same one University of Colorado's Joe Bosshard saw last year, when he finished sixth as a redshirt freshman to earn first team All-American. And the redshirt sophomore decided, as he often does, that going out conservatively was the best plan.
"I like to start out a little conservative to see how I'm feeling to see what kind of the race it's going to be like," Bosshard said. "We didn't start out incredibly fast, but also not slow. Those guys up front were throwing a bunch of surges in there, so it was a little uneven in the beginning. But we came through the 5K faster than I ever have in a 10K."
Fast enough to set him up to finish with a personal best in the 10K and his second-straight All-American team in 28:41.56.
"After a long year, too many races, 20-something hours of delay, and multiple postponements, then humid conditions and possibly the strongest 10K field, it was an excellent performance, particularly for a sophomore," CU coach Mark Wetmore said. "I'm not sure how many guys ran PRs, but he was one of a very few. I hope he is pleased. It was a good run."
Bosshard settled into the chase pack and made efforts to catch the three leaders: Liberty's Sam Chelanga, Arizona junior Stephen Sambu and Iona senior Leonard Korir, who won the race in a sensational final-lap kick to beat out Chelanga. But Bosshard pushed too hard, he said, and suffered at the end.
"I've raced a lot more than I expected and I wanted and more than my coaches wanted me to," Bosshard said. "I didn't have anything left at the end. I was hot and tired and I wish I did, but I was pretty content."
Bosshard has been on a quiet tear the last six weeks after failing to qualify in the 5K for this year's NCAA indoor national championships by half a second. He became the first Buffalo ever to win both the 5K and 10K at the Big 12 conference championships, setting a personal best in the 10K in the process before breaking it again today by 11 seconds.
"Last year I wasn't supposed to make it to NCAAs and this year I wasn't supposed to make it in the 5," Bosshard said. "I guess I don't mind surprising coach Wetmore and coach (Heather) Burroughs. I want to prove that I'm one of the best guys out there and one to contend with."
In the men's 3,000-meter steeplechase final, Air Force senior Justin Tyner finished eighth in 8:40.83, about three seconds off his personal best, to earn All-American honors. The winner of that race, senior Matt Hughes of Louisville, set a Drake Stadium record in 8:24.87. Tyner, who has graduated, next moves to Air Force's the World Class Athlete program, where he'll continue to train under Air Force coach Juli Benson.
"I don't think I would have been satisfied if I hadn't gone for it like I did," Tyner said of the early fast pace. "I thought I had it in me to go that fast, and I still do. This is the championship. If you're not racing to win, then what are you doing?"

Follow Me on Instagram!Took this photo last weekend, just before sending these off to #jamiesonsofshetland for their Christmas appeal to benefit #mrimaakers . (Something tells me their #ChristmasTree in Lerwick 🎄might look a wee bit different than the trees here in #Tucson, 🌵#Arizona. 🤓 ) These were knit in Jamieson's DK #ShetlandWool #yarn, but you can use whatever yarn your heart desires. If you'd like to help the good people of #Shetland raise funds to finally get an MRI machine for their community, please feel free to use any of my many #freeknittingpatterns for #christmasornaments. Just head to my website (link in profile) click on the "FreePatterns" tab at the top of the page, then scroll down to find your favorite. Have fun!! #fairisleknitting #strandedknitting #christmasknitting #charityknitting #knittersofinstagram #knitting #stricken #strikke #tricotA fantastic knitter with the Ravelry ID "swissmissdenise" just shared this lovely photo of her modeling her wonderful #polarchullo sweater. (Photo shared here with her permission.) My "Polar Chullo" hat design uses five natural shades of #jamiesonsofshetland #spindrift. Shortly after "swissmissdenise" knit my hat design, I saw her order for six identical Polar Chullo yarn packs come through. I had to reach out to her - was that a typo??🤔Nope, no typo - this amazingly talented knitter definitely knew what she was doing! She layered some of my Polar Chullo charts over her own sweater shape and came up with...magic!😍What a great job, and doesn't she look wonderful in it?!😍 Thanks so much for sharing your lovely result, dear Denise!❤#fairisleknitting #knittersofinstagram #hi.ravelry #knitting #shetlandwool #ull #garn #strikke #stricken #tricot #polarbears #knittingpattern #knitspiration #knittingdesignWho needs red and green?! One pink #kilimball down and one blue one in the works, both headed to #jamiesonsofshetland shortly for their #Christmas window #fundraiser to aid @mrimaakers in their drive to provide a sorely needed MRI scanner for the wonderful people of #Shetland. My #freeknittingpattern, "Christmas Balls", is available through my online shop (url is my name + dot com - see link in bio.) It includes two more #christmasornament designs and, if you go to my #freepattern page, you'll find several more free patterns for #christmas #baubles, too. Both of these #kilim balls use Jamieson's splendid #DoubleKnitting #ShetlandWool yarn but you can use whatever sport or dk weight #yarn you have on hand. I hope you all have a happy #fairislefriday and a fun weekend, filled with lots of happy #knitting ! #fairisleknitting #norwegianknitting #strandedknitting #knittersofinstagram #stricken #strikke #tricot #knittedchristmasLast week, @juliedennison shared her wonderful version of my Two Strands Christmas Ball, a #freeknittingpattern on my website. Julie made hers super-special by changing it from a two-colored Norwegian look into a fabulous, five-colored, Fair Isle delight featuring the beautiful colors found in #harrietshat, the official hat of the recent 2019 #shetlandwoolweek. Not only did Julie knit up a beautiful bauble (see 2nd photo, copyright Julie Dennison 2019) but she was brilliant in using those colors, for many of you probably have those same leftovers in your stash. I hope you'll consider putting them to great use, knitting up your own Two Strands baubles, or any of the other free #christmasball designs on my Free Patterns page and sending them to #jamiesonsofshetland for their #Christmas window to benefit the @mrimaakers appeal. And if you've used up all your Harriet's Hat colors (a doubled strand of Spindrift will knit at the same worsted /Aran gauge used for the Two Strands ball) don't feel you're up the creek without the usual red+green Christmas colors - here I've put together just a few more ideas for fun ways you might add some #fairisle flair to your Two Strands baubles using all sorts of leftovers from your stash. Happy #Christmasknitting!#knittedchristmas #knittersofinstagram #fairisleknitting #norwegianknitting #strandedknitting #charityknitting #ull #garn #yarn #knitting #stricken #tricotMore FREE Christmas ball patterns! My "Christmas Eve Collection", all of the #knittingpattern designs shown here, used to be a for-sale pdf, but in honor of the Jamieson's of Shetland Christmas appeal for their MRI fund raising, as of today, it's a #freeknittingpattern available through my online shop (link in bio). Go to my site's free pattern page (link in nav bar at top of my site), scroll down the free pattern page until you see this photo, click on the photo and the pdf is all yours for either personal-use or charity fund raising. ( Please consider sending some to Jamieson's in Lerwick -see the #jamiesonsofshetland page for details.) I've also added a link near the top of my free pattern page that will be helpful for anyone who's a bit uncertain about diving into shaped color work charts like this. This pattern uses DK / sport weight yarn and would look wonderful in Jamieson's Double Knitting. #knit #knitting #knittingpatterns #christmasknitting #charityknitting #fairisleknitting #norwegianknitting #christmasballs #handmadechristmas #strandedknitting #strikke #stricken #knittersofinstagram #dkweightFREE knitting patterns from my online shop (link in bio). UPDATE: Please feel free to use my free patterns for the #jamiesonsofshetland Christmas window fund raiser!❤ Jamieson's DK is a perfect substitute for my old patterns that used Dale Falk or Heilo. I also have a worsted /Aran weight free Christmas ball pattern that would be nicely improved in some Jamieson's Heather Aran. The perfect way to kick off your holiday 🎄 knitting, work down that stash, save a little cash and spread a bit of cheer. 😁Find these #freeknittingpatterns and more through the "free patterns" link in the nav bar at the top of any page on my site. Wondering how to work the charts?

Clockwise from top left: My "Monkey Hat" (2012) in the Infant & Toddler sizes, #knit in #fingeringweight yarn; my "Sleepy Monkey Blanket" (2009), a reversible stroller blanket / playmat knit in #worstedweight yarn; same #monkeyhat #knittingpattern, in the Adult size (there's a Youth size, too), knit in #dkweight. The Monkey Hat & Sleepy Monkey Blanket PDFs are both available for $6 each through either my online shop - see link in bio - or Ravelry). Lastly, we have our friend Monkster showing off his "Monkster Gets Stranded" sweater, a free teddy bear sweater pattern - one of several free patterns on my online shop's free pattern page (yep, see that same, old bio link). Once you're on my site, use the links in the navbar at the top of the page to get around. My "Sleepy Monkey Blanket" was originally published in Twist Collective in 2009 and that sweet photo with those delicious, chubby leggies was taken by Genevieve de la Plante, the rest are mine. #monkey #hat #knittingforkids #babyknits #knitting #strandedknitting #fairisleknitting #norwegianknitting #strikke #stricken #tricot #ravelryI've reworked my Timbers Hat pattern using #jamiesonsofshetland Heather Aran yarn. I'm thrilled with the result! When I first released this design, way back in 2006, I used a Dale yarn that was discontinued several years ago, so the #timbershat was overdue for a fresh look. It's always been a favorite of mine - at 19 stitches over 4"/10cm, it's a pretty quick knit, so it's awesome for gifts, yet I still get to play with beloved, traditional motifs. If you already have the original pattern, there's no problem with it, but you might prefer my recent, hopefully extra user-friendly version using a wonderful, currently-available yarn. Ravelry updates have been sent out. If you already purchased the old version directly from me, tell me when (approximately), what email you used and I'll send you the update. If you haven't tried my Timbers Hat yet, the still $5 pdf is available either through my site (see bio) or Ravelry and the yarn packs are available through my site, too (yep, same old bio link). #hat #knit #knittingpattern #strandedknitting #fairisleknitting #fairisleknittingpattern #norwegianknitting #shetlandwool #knittersofinstagram #strikke #stricken #tricot #worstedweight #timbershatBarrel cactus #sabinocanyon #tucson #arizona.

A Concise History of Australia
Cambridge University Press, 1999 - History - 320 pages
Australia is the last continent to be settled by Europeans, but it also sustains a people and a culture tens of thousands of years old. For much of the past 200 years the newcomers have sought to replace the old with the new. This book tells how they imposed themselves on the land, and describes how they brought technology, institutions and ideas to make it their own. It relates the advance from penal colony to a prosperous free nation and illustrates how, in a nation created by waves of newcomers, the search for binding traditions has long been frustrated by the feeling of rootlessness. Now, with the realisation that colonisation began with invasion, present-day Australians are - more than ever before - coming to terms with their past and recognising the need to redefine and reposition Australia in a changing world. This is the most up-to-date single-volume Australian history available.

Really animated Will
Will Smith and the Men In Black 3 team were in Asia earlier this week to promote the movie. Does he seem really, really animated to you? I mean he's always super-animated but I feel like this time there's some extra to his natural all day party. And no, that's not a reference to anything smutty. I do actually believe Will gets high on Fans! and Fun! He's reminding me a lot lately of Tom Cruise. Like a constant double thumb pump, you know? High fives all the time!
I'm exhausted already, can you imagine how Jada feels?
Men In Black 3 opens on May 24. Wonder if we'll see will on some kind of fly-by stunt at Cannes next week. The timing is kinda perfect.

Dinópolis: a journey to the world of dinosaurs
Dinópolis theme park in Teruel
Penetrating the depths of Dinópolis is like taking a journey through time
A group of children touching the skeleton of a saurian
Children playing at being palaeontologists
If you are planning to travel to Spain with your children and are keen to make it an unforgettable experience, we recommend you take them to a fascinating place of leisure, adventure and amusement: the Dinópolis theme park in the town of Teruel, devoted to the dinosaurs that ruled the Earth millions of years ago.
Dinópolis puede ser una escapada muy interesante si está pasando unos días de descanso en la costa valenciana, junto al mar Mediterráneo, o ha decidido visitar una ciudad importante como Zaragoza . En este gran parque temático podrá rodearse de dinosaurios de inmenso tamaño que mueven su cuerpo gigantesco, admirar esqueletos de animales ya extinguidos como el mamut y el oso de las cavernas, viajar por mares que desaparecieron mucho antes de la existencia del hombre, adentrarse por el túnel del tiempo, convertirse en saurio o investigar cómo vivían estos reptiles ya desaparecidos.
Dinópolis is a fun outing if you are spending a short holiday on the Valencian shores of the Mediterranean, or have decided to visit the interesting city of Zaragoza . At this large theme park you will be surrounded by huge dinosaurs that move their gigantic bodies, will be able to admire the skeletons of extinct animals such as the mammoth and the cave bear, sail on seas that disappeared long before human beings came into existence, travel through the tunnel of time, or become a saurian and discover how these extinct reptiles lived.
Children can learn all about palaeontology in an entertaining and interactive way through games, 3D projections, workshops, plays, animations and experiments. And they can do all this not just as spectators but as researchers and explorers of strange and uncharted lands, making amazing discoveries themselves.
Dinópolis comprises several interesting sections. The most outstanding is undoubtedly the Palaeontology Museum, is the largest exhibition space in Europe and boasts one of the world's best dinosaur collections. In addition to skeletons (it's the only place in the world where both a Tyrannosaurus and a Brachiosaurus are on display), original fossils and life-size reproductions, this superb interactive space also features virtual recreations, projections, simulators, laboratories and games, providing a total experience for visitors. Other great attractions are the living recreation of an imposing Tyrannosaurus Rex and a journey through time on a vehicle that penetrates a world of special effects and animations.

performance of a sonata over 100K
Planning to buy a 2002 hyndai sonata which has 80K miles on it. hondas and toyota run well with minimal maintanace after 100k . How does a sonata perform after 100K?. Does it call for a lot of repairs?. How are the parts very expensive?.
I believe the comment "how does a Sonata perform after 100K" is too broad to answer accurately. There are just too many variables in all respects e.g. preventative maintainence, driver empathy with the car (washing, listening for odd noises, quick repair of early faults etc) , driving style, geographical terrain..on and on...that all have an influence on how well any car will run not only after 100K miles but long before that as well. But, that said, our son had a 2000 Elantra that he sold @ 190K miles in Dec 2007 and it drove off into the sunset running as well as when we bought it @ 56,000 miles in 2003. It needed, as I recall, two timing belt changes each at 60K intervals per Hyundai's schedule. It also needed a couple of sets of front rotors but the Hyundai brand replacements did not last long (warped easily) so I finally bought Bendix and that was that...fixed. Also, the rear brake cylinders needed replaced @ about 150-160K miles. Needed routine things, spark plugs changed once or twice, front brake pads, tires etc. The major problem was the design of the exhaust manifold where the catylitic converter was integral (not replaceable seperately). The exhaust manifold cracked..twice and replacement cost was over $1000.00 BUT Hyundai replaced them both times free of charge due to the emission control warranty. The 3rd was a redesigned part and we never had that problem again. In general I'd say based on our own experience plus that of a few co-workers who have high mileage Hyundai cars (and I believe what they say) that Hyundai is at least the equal of Honda and better than current Toyota's. Parts are parts they all are expensive for any brand depending on what you need. You must check for a rusted out sub-frame on this 2002 Sonata because some model years including 2002 were subject to rust problems if your car is in or came from the rust belt (the north-east) where salt is used extensively in the winter. Salt slop collected in boxed in or inacessible areas of the subframe and was not easily washed out therefore the metal rusted, badly. Have the car professionally checked on the underside for this problem and stay away from it if it is discovered that the sub-frame is rusted through in places. Hyundai is replacing these free of charge for owners in the rustbelt but it is better not to buy one with that problem in the first place. If you live in more temperate areas where winter isn't bad I'd still have that checked out because you never know where the car lived its life, unless you are buying it privately and can document where it lived for 8 years. Hope I supplied something helpful..good luck.0
iam buying a second hand through a private party. So before buying it I want to get it checked at nearest pep boys for the 50 point inspection would that be ok?will that tell me upfront about these problems or any0
I am not familiar with exactly what Pep-Boys 50 point inspection entails but I will tell you that if you live in the rust belt this subframe inspection is about the most important thing to check. It can be seriously dangerous. Where do you live in general terms (state)? This answer will determine if this problem is possible on your potential buy. Beyond that, I'd say that if performed competently the PepBoys inspection should be sufficient. Be aware that I have heard that this inspection at PepBoys can be self-serving..by that I mean they may find certain "problems" that they will offer to fix for you but there may not be any problem or a small one at most in the area they suggest has one. Better might be an inspection at the local Hyundai dealer even if you have to pay $50-or $60 for it. There is nobody better at knowing their own cars.0
we are in CA. the car has been in CA as well0
Kirstie_H Posts: 11,077targettuning is right on - getting an inspection at a dealership and paying for it is the best thing you can do when buying a car of this vintage. The "freebie" or low-cost inspections offer more opportunities for them to find issues (that may or may not be critical) in an effort to get you to spend money.
Personally, I'd be wary of a 2002 Hyundai, but that's just me. I wasn't impressed with the quality of them until the 2006 model year. I'd happily buy one 2006+, but it'd have to be really cheap for me to consider an earlier year.

backy Twin CitiesPosts: 18,937fyi the 2002 Sonata was a fairly old design, first debuting in late 1998. It was designed prior to Hyundai's big push on quality, which began in 1999. IMO models designed after that, specifically the 2001+ Elantra (an Edmunds' Top Used Car choice) and the 2001+ Santa Fe were solid cars, quality-wise, although quality improved even more with the latest generation of vehicles.0
needcar5 Posts: 1I am purchasing a 2000 Sonata for around $400. Car looks to be in good condition. Slight hesitation in the take-off once or twice while test driving. Do you think this is a good deal. The car has about 140000 miles0
bhmr59 Posts: 1,601For $400 you couldn't complain if the car lasted only six months without the need for expensive repairs.
Minimal sales tax, no need for collision insurance (although you might want comprehensive to cover a broken windshield), minimal property tax if your state taxes the value of a car each year (like CT does) , vitually no depreciation.
Just have the car checked out by a mechanic of your choice. He should be able to tell you if the car is OK or needs work to make it OK for everyday use.0

Questions for Bush
DORIS KEARNS GOODWIN, author of a forthcoming history of Abraham Lincoln's White House:
History suggests our best presidents acknowledge error, learn from mistakes, grow in the job. Lincoln readily conceded a number of errors. "I'd like to believe I'm smarter today than I was yesterday," he explained. Yet when you were first asked about mistakes you had made since the inauguration, you could not think of any. Your vice president followed suit this week, insisting he would recommend today exactly the same course in Iraq. Without acknowledging error, how can you expect to be smarter today than you were yesterday?
MARK CUBAN, co-founder of Broadcast.com and owner of the Dallas Mavericks:
With so much instability in the stock markets, and dramatic losses and volatility the norm at least once a generation, how could you even consider allowing people to invest their retirement funds in the market? And why was it New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer and not you who reformed the fund and financial industry?
JEDEDIAH PURDY, assistant professor of law at Duke and author of "For Common Things":
Your tax cuts have opened huge deficits, and budget forecasters predict that unless we change course, we won't be able to pay for Social Security, Medicare or college loans. I grew up taking those programs for granted. Later I realized they were some of the most decent things this country has ever done. At age 29, I'm afraid I'll have to support my parents when they can't work. I'm afraid I'll get old in a country that's unequal, divided and fearful. Can you say anything to reassure me?
SHIRLEY TILGHMAN, president of Princeton University:
Having two decades experience growing embryonic stem cells from mice, I can safely predict that the human embryonic stem cells that have been approved for study using federal funds will soon become unusable. Unless something is done, a promising area of biomedical research with potential for curing diseases like juvenile diabetes and Parkinson's will be curtailed, and the United States will be at a serious competitive disadvantage with other countries that are actively pursuing this research. When the approved cells do become unusable, what will you do?
ATOOSA RUBENSTEIN, editor of Seventeen magazine:
We often talk about "the family" as this monolithic entity, but today more and more children are coming from nontraditional households. They are experiencing divorce, being raised by single parents, gay parents and grandparents, or are in mixed-race families. How can we make the lives of these "new" families better? How will you use your bully pulpit to promote acceptance of all kinds of families?
JACK MILES, author of "God: A Biography":
The United States cannot defend itself against Islamist terrorism without the help of the world's Muslims. Yet according to the 9/11 commission report, two-thirds of the world's Muslims fear that the United States may attack them. Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, your deputy undersecretary for defense intelligence, caused a scandal among the world's Muslims by repeatedly saying that Muslims hate the United States "because we're a Christian nation." Are you prepared to say to the world's Muslims that the United States is not a Christian nation but a religiously neutral nation whose Constitution prohibits the establishment of any religion?
ANA MARIE COX, editor of Wonkette.com:
Personal experience can often change political opinions. So, just hypothetically: Let's say your vice president's daughter was gay . . . Oh, wait. Umm . . . What if you were responsible for the biggest deficit in American history -- oh, ha. O.K.: Let's say you invaded a country based on faulty intelligence . . . Er, oops . . . No, we got it: How did "The Pet Goat" end, anyway?
Questions for Kerry
CHARLES FRIED, professor at Harvard Law School and former solicitor general:
In the next four years there may well be several appointments to make to the Supreme Court. In order to give the voters an idea of what kind of men and women you would appoint, please tell us whether you approve or disapprove of the decision of the supreme court of your state of Massachusetts to make gay marriage a matter of constitutional right under a state constitutional provision very like that in the federal constitution.
PATRICIA NELSON LIMERICK, chairwoman, the Center for the American West, University of Colorado at Boulder:
Since the public owns the National Parks, Monuments and Forests, and the lands under the Bureau of Land Management, how should we weigh the interests of all those with an investment in them: local residents, tourists, environmental groups, people working for companies based in other states and sometimes in other countries? What is the most effective balance between top-down management out of Washington-based agencies and local preferences and desires? Also, what have been your own favorite experiences in the West's public lands?
ERIC SCHLOSSER, author of "Fast Food Nation":
The United States is now threatened by a series of newly emerged, dangerous pathogens: mad cow disease, E. coli, antibiotic-resistant Salmonella, avian flu. And yet the nation's food safety system is in serious disarray. Thanks to the lobbying efforts of major agribusiness firms, the federal government still lacks the authority to test meat for deadly pathogens, to trace contaminated meat back to its source, or to demand the recall of meat that could sicken thousands. What steps would you take to protect consumers from deliberately or inadvertently tainted food?
ALISA VALDES-RODRIGUEZ, author of "Playing with Boys" and "The Dirty Girls Social Club":
Many Cuban-Americans were surprised by recent policies enacted by the Bush administration, including restrictions on Cuban exiles traveling to the island and sending money to relatives, which they see as hurting our relatives on the island rather than Fidel Castro. In my own family, the restrictions have meant direct suffering for anti-Castro relatives. How would your Cuba policy differ from that of the current administration?
KATHLEEN SULLIVAN, former dean of Stanford Law School:
While protecting the nation against terrorism, how would you, and any judges you would appoint to the federal bench, also protect the nation's longstanding constitutional traditions of freedom of movement, equal protection of the law for all groups regardless of ethnicity, and privacy from government surveillance in the absence of individualized suspicion?
JAMES Q. WILSON, author of "The Moral Sense":
Why should we make you commander in chief of the United States armed forces after you have said that those forces regularly committed war crimes in Vietnam, and after you voted against new missile systems, the B-2 bomber and the American-led effort to drive Saddam Hussein out of Kuwait in 1991?
ANNE FADIMAN, former editor of The American Scholar:
Most heads of state speak at least two languages -- a skill one might expect to be useful in international negotiation. Although you're fluent in French, you chose to ignore a question from a French-speaking journalist at a press conference earlier this year, presumably because you feared being perceived as too smart, too snobbish, too global -- and, by extension, insufficiently American. If, as president, you met with President Jacques Chirac of France, would you permit yourself to speak French? Would the American people?

YORKSHIRE could be caught in the eye of Storm Doris on Thursday, with the possibility of travel disruption, damage to buildings and flying debris, forecasters have warned.
Severe weather warnings have been put in place for much of the country, with the North and Midlands urged to "be prepared".
"Amber warnings" predict strong winds and heavy rain in Yorkshire, while winds as fast as 60mph are also expected to batter southern England.
Across Yorkshire, winds are expected to gust to 70 or 80mph for a short period.
Winds of up to 80mph are expected to plague northern Scotland on Wednesday before Doris arrives from the Atlantic on Thursday, the Met Office said.
Leeds Council briefly closed the nororious wind blackspot of Bridgewater Place during Tuesday's high winds and says it is monitoring conditions.
"We have got a fairly active area of low pressure coming in from the Atlantic," said Met Office forecaster Emma Sharples.
"It is strengthening as it moves eastwards to the UK."
The Met Office's amber weather warning alerts people that "whilst the strongest winds look to be only short-lived, damage to structures, interruptions to power supplies and widespread disruption to travel networks are likely, with a danger of injury from flying debris".
A weather warning for snow is also in place for Scotland, which could see treacherous blizzard-like conditions.
Storm Doris is expected to move on quickly, with the worst of the weather gone by Thursday evening.
The Environment Agency warned there was a risk of localised flooding from Doris.
A spokesman said: "Rain on saturated ground on Saturday could also lead to flooding in some areas.
"Environment Agency teams are out on the ground clearing screens and will issue flood warnings and alerts where necessary."
The agency said it was training new staff on how to deploy temporary flood barriers, but there were no plans to use them this week.
While further Atlantic gusts will bring more rain and wind through the weekend and into next week, they are not expected to reach the heights of Doris.
Storms with the potential to cause substantial impact are named by the Met Office and Met Eireann, moving through the alphabet.
The first was named Abigail in November 2015, after members of the public suggested monikers for the "name our storms" project.
Forecasters are now in their second run through the alphabet. After Doris, Britons can expect to hear of Ewan, Fleur and Gabriel.
Storm Doris's appearance contrasts with Monday's temperatures, where visitors to Kew Gardens, west London, enjoyed the warmest day of the winter so far, at 18.3C (64.9F).
Parts of London and the south of England had temperatures warmer than Ibiza, southern Spain and Menorca.
• 35 – 40mm recorded rainfall across top of Wharfe and Ure catchments during Tuesday night. Lower totals seen elsewhere across Yorkshire.
• Frontal rain will spread in from the west during Wednesday night, continuing through Thursday (Storm Doris) before clearing to the east on Thursday evening.
• Above 400m rainfall may fall as snow, up to 10cm across the northern Pennines. However, forecast certainty in the snow detail is still very low.
• Response on lower catchments such as the lower Ouse is likely to be elevated as a result of both periods of rainfall however impacts are likely to be minor or below.
• Currently in neap tides so astronomic levels are low. However, high winds are causing isolated overtopping and spray at Bridlington which could lead to minor impacts.
• Friday is expected to be predominantly dry with just the potential for some scattered showers.
• Frontal rain is expected to move in from the west on Friday afternoon or evening and persist through much of Saturday.
• Largest accumulations are expected over high ground.
• Any lying snow (up to 10mm water equivalent across the Pennines) is expected to melt on Friday. Some of this melt will be ahead of the first band of rain, with any remaining snow quickly melting once the rain starts.
• Response from the headwaters of rivers from early Saturday could again be similar to the overnight response and the response expected tomorrow.
• However response on lower catchments such as the lower Ouse is likely to be elevated of this consistent period of unsettled weather and potentially a snowmelt affect.
• Isolated overtopping and spray at Bridlington which could lead to minor impacts potentially on Saturday and Sunday.

Tagged: Scandinavia
Tripping through Scandinavia: Introduction
In the middle of January 2014, planning for this trip started taking place. I usually plan my travels well in advance, mainly due to cost benefits and the time to plan most trip components to the T. Travel planning is something, which I thoroughly enjoy, and this was going to be no different.
The only difference going to be however was tagging along my parents and convincing them. My mom is relatively easy and I won't even try to delve on "How I convinced my Dad for this vacation". I'll save that for a self-help book later.
Anyways, once all that was finalised, it was time for me to decide on the destinations. I had gone to Switzerland with my friends in 2005 and since then always thought that my parents would love the Swiss sights. So the first city was decided as Zürich, where we made our base for 5 days to explore the neighbouring areas. Next up, I decided to venture up slightly north to Hamburg for 3 days, mainly because of the Airbus Factory Tour. For the remaining 8 days my long pending dream of exploring parts of Scandinavia was realised as Copenhagen and Stockholm were chosen as the last two cities. and That's where the name of this trip came about to be.
After a through deliberation, I booked Turkish Airlines for our trip. Mom & Dad were booked upfront in the Business Class, and I resigned myself to Economy. Turkish is known for their flat beds in Business and the fantastic cuisine catered by Do & Co, although both my parents don't drink and are vegetarian, I suspected they would still enjoy the hard product. Plus the opportunity to experience Turkish CIP Lounge at Istanbul was too good to pass.
The Intra-Europe routing was made with the help going through "Man in Seat Sixty-One" extensively (Highly recommended for train travel, especially European). The traveler in me was stoked by trying out three completely different trains, while keeping in mind it would be more comfortable for my parents as well, compared to taking short flights. Train travel in Europe is comfortable, scenic and expensive but if you book out 91 days in advance (62 days for some train companies), advance deals are great value for money.
and if your routing is good enough, you might just get your Train placed on a Ferry too 😉
Following was the final routing for the trip
12/07 TK717 New Delhi to Istanbul departing 0605 hrs arriving 1025 hrs
12/07 TK1913 Istanbul to Zurich departing 1145 hrs arriving 1340 hrs
16/07 Deutsche Bahn CNL 478 (City Night Line) Zurich HB to Hamburg Hbf departing 2042 hrs arriving 0828 hrs (+1 day)
19/07 Deutsche Bahn ICE 37 Hamburg Hbf to Copenhagen departing 1528 hrs arriving 2014 hrs
23/07 SJ2000, Train 530 Copenhagen to Stockholm Central departing 0828 hrs arriving 1339 hrs
27/07 TK1794 Stockholm to Istanbul departing 1145 hrs arriving 1615 hrs
27/07 TK 716 Istanbul to New Delhi departing 1955 hrs arriving 0420 hrs (+1 day)
This allowed us to check out the following
Turkish Airlines A330 Business Class
I had flown Turkish few years back to Paris, and had liked their service in Economy. However, during this trip I was keen to see how they will serve my parents traveling in Business Class. I was in economy but secured bulkhead seats on both A330 routes. Who minds extra legroom, right?
Turkish Airlines CIP Lounge, Istanbul and SAS Lounge, Arlanda – Stockholm
Let's admit it, each & every self-respecting aviation geek out there knows about the legendary Turkish Airlines lounge at Istanbul and has read plenty of reviews terming it one of the best Star Alliance Lounge in the world. Therefore, I decided completely skip reviewing this lounge and instead focus on SAS Star Alliance Lounge at Arlanda International. PS: Turkish CIP Lounge is indeed fantastic.
Swissotel Zürich
Last time I was in Zürich, I was staying in a Hostel. I figured with family in tow, I had to look at something way more comfortable and convenient. Swissotel Zürich is right next door to Zürich Oerlikon station, has a great breakfast spread, plus every stay at the property gets you 500 JP Miles.
Arcotel Rubin, Hamburg
At Hamburg I wanted a hotel close to the main Hauptbahnhof station as we were using trains for both arrival and departure into the city. The city centre is also close-by and after extensive research I chose Arcotel Rubin. In fact, while other hotels were finalized more than two months in advance, I confirmed Arcotel Rubin only two weeks out.
Bella Sky Comwell Hotel, Copenhagen
This was my first visit to Denmark, let alone Copenhagen so I was looking for something striking, modern without breaking the bank. Bella Sky Comwell was perfect in all departments. Apart from being a stunning design hotel from the outside, there were plenty of great details inside which I appreciated. While checking-in, I got a great deal on a paid-upgrade to the top 23rd floor and the views from the room more than paid for it.
Hilton Stockholm Slussen Hotel
To end the trip I figured it would be best to do it with some added luxury and I chose Hilton Slussen over Sheraton Stockholm. Besides getting a great deal, I also stood a chance for free breakfast, room upgrades (which happened second day into the stay) and other amenities due to my Hilton Gold status. The views from the room, the proximity to main attractions & the executive lounge access made last four days of our trip memorable.
This trip turned out to be exactly as I imagined it to be and beyond. Liechtenstein, Denmark and Sweden became #29, #30 and #31 in my countries visited list. I also visited two new lounges, three new train services, thirteen different beers, got my Burger King fix for the year and of course visited the Airbus Plant in Hamburg. I'm excited to share my experience in detail with all of you in the days ahead.
Thanks for reading, let me know if you have any comments or questions.

Basically, our ICE train from Hamburg HBF to Kobenhavn (Copenhagen) got inside (YES!) a ferry to cross into Denmark from Germany. This happened at Puttgarten to Rodby ferry, one of the few remaining routes in Europe where trains go onto ferries. Never knew that!
This crossing over the Baltic Sea took us about 45 minutes and we were required to leave the train and our luggage, to go up into the ferry whilst it is at sea. The ferry had many cruise ship like facilities: Bars, Restaurants, and Duty free shops (liquor is very expensive in Nordic countries).
I was able to capture my experience and video graph the various parts of it, and put it together, from going in to coming out of the ferry, in 2 minutes and 16 seconds.
This is certainly something off my bucket list which I never knew existed, and that's what makes it even more special.
Have a look and tell me what you think?
