COLUMBUS, Ohio — The federal government reports that the number of people without health insurance in Ohio fell by 47,000 during the past year.
A report released by the U.S. Census Bureau on Tuesday says Ohio was one of 15 states that saw a decline in uninsured residents from 2012 through 2013.
According to The Columbus Dispatch (http://bit.ly/1BLDvAN ), the report concluded that about 1.258 million people in Ohio — or 11 percent — were without insurance last year, either through their employer or a federal health-care program such as Medicaid.
About 1.3 million, or 11.5 percent, were without coverage in 2012.
The decline in the number of people without insurance can be attributed to an improving state economy and some sections of the 2010 federal health-care law that have been phased in.

The flavors were ok but the sauce was way to runny. It was basically watery and I even added some flour to try and thicken it, but it was like pouring water over my pasta, so it didn't stick to the noodles at all.

Pesto is an uncooked sauce made with fresh basil, garlic, pignoli (pine nuts), Parmesan or Pecorino cheese and olive oil. This classic, fresh-tasting sauce originated in Italy and is a favorite on pasta and chicken dishes.

Chapter 151 Reviews
We are in Europe now. We still have 2 months of touring left and I am dreading the tour ending. We have all gotten extremely close. Especially Frank and I. Even though we said we were going to take things slow, our relationship as accelerated faster than we expected. I love him with everything I am. And I know he loves me too. We are in Paris France tonight. We have the night off. Frank told me not to make any plans with the others but he didn't say why.
"It's driving me absolutely crazy not knowing what he is up to" I said to the girls. We were all sitting in one of the hotel rooms. The guys were supposedly off at an interview.
"I tried to get info out of Gerard but he claims he knows nothing" Luna said
"Well that gives it away that he does, plus Gee was never good at lying." Maxie said
"You two are not helping. Katie i'm sure whatever it is that Frank has planned in that midget head of his isn't anything you need to be freaking out about. We are in Paris fucking France. You and Frank are gonna go have a beautifully romantic night, make out some, then come and tell us all about it in the morning" Molly said
"You're right. I just hate not knowing what's going on" I said
"Believe me we all know that" Georgia said while laughing
"What time did Frank say to be ready?" Stefanie asked
"He said he'd pick me up at 7... I don't even know what I am supposed to wear" I said
"Just wear a cute skirt and top. I'm sure frank really isn't going to care what you wear. Why are you freaking out so much anyways it's not like this is your first date with him" maxie said.
"I don't know why I am freaking out. Guess i'm just nervous. Who wants to help me get ready" I said changing the subject. I knew why I was nervous but I wasn't ready to tell the girls. They all took part in helping me get ready. I was completely dressed and ready to go by 6"30. The girls had me dressed in a black skirt and a black button down top with a red tank top underneath and showing. I was wearing a pair of red heels. Georgia curled my hair and out a red flower in it
"Frank is getting a boner tonight. You look Hot" Luna said
"I really don't want to hear about frank getting a boner... it's not on my list of mental images I wanna see" Maxie said
"Frank will not get a boner... and Max im glad my boyfriend isn't in your head" I said
"Yea right. He gets one every time you walk off stage. I'm surprised you two are screwing like bunnies yet" Luna said. I could feel my face start to turn red
"Leave her alone. Plus once they start they aren't going to stop ad I don't want to hear them screwing on the bus" Lindsey said
"Well who knows maybe he will get lucky tonight beings that we are in the city of love" Stef said. As they all started laughing
"He just might" I said. I think the only one who heard me was Maxie. She gave me a worried look. I just smiled at her. Then three was a knock on the door. It was Frank. I grabbed my purse and went with him. He looked amazing as always.
We ended up at this really nice restaurant. The food was amazing. We had a beautiful view of the Eiffel Tower. After dinner we walked hand in hand to the Eiffel tower. We sat on a little bench by it.
"This is so beautiful" I said looking up.
"I see something even more beautiful" frank said while looking at me
"You're a dork" I said while kissing his nose and curling into him
"Tonight was amazing Frankie." I said
"It's not over yet. I have one more surprise for you." He said as he pulled something from his pocket
" Katie… I know we have only been together for two months , eight days, and yes i've been counting" he said making me bust out laughing
"I'm trying to be serious… ok… I love you with all of my heart and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to have mini me's with you. I want to grow old together and watch our kids have kids and see them have kids. I want to have wheel chair or walker races with each other in our old age. You make me feel complete and I think we truly are soul mates. I think we were brought together for a reason. You've shown me more love in 2 months than I have felt my whole life. My mom always tells me to follow my heart so that's what i'm gonna do.. Even if my head says it may be too son and seem like we are rushing things. But this feels like the right time and place." He said as he got down on one knee
" Kathryn Nicole Mellencamp, will you make me the absolute happiest man alive and marry me?" frank said. I was absolutely speechless. A million different things were running through my head. We were seriously ready to be engaged and get married? Was I ready to settle down ands tart a family? In my head I knew the answer to the questions I have.. I was just having a huge problem forming words.
" Babe please say something" frank said. We were both crying
"Yes" I said in a whisper. It was all that was needed though. Frank picked me up and started spinning me in circles. Once he stopped he slipped the ring on my finger. It was a Simple ring. Just a small diamond on a silver band. I loved it. I grabbed his face a kissed him.
" I want you to make love to me tonight" I said
" Are you ready for that? I mean with everything… are you sure?" Frank asked I knew he was referring to the rapes.
" I am 100% positive. I want this… I want you" I said
" Ok let's go back to the hotel my love" he said. We walked to the hotel hand in hand again. I loved the way that my hand fit perfectly in his. Once we were inside our hotel I wrapped my arms around Frank's neck
" I love you" I said
" I love you too" he said then he kissed me passionately and sweetly. Things started to get heated, but we still took things slow. I think Frank was more nervous than I was. I'm not gonna go into detail of us making love. It will tell you this though. It was AMAZING and perfect in every way.
We were laying wrapped in each others limbs all of a sudden someone started pounding on the door.
" KATIE! FRANK!! COME ON ANSWER THE DOOR" I heard Maxie yell. I could tell by the tone of her voice that something was wrong. It sounded like she was crying. I jumped up and threw on a robe before running to answer the door. Maxie was in tears.
" Max what's going on?" I asked as she hugged me
" We gotta get packed and leave ASAP… something bad happened" she said
" What happened?" I asked
" Katie… Ian…. They got in a bad wreck.. The whole band.. We don't know detail just that Ian.. We just got to get you there as son as humanly possible…. I'm sooo sorry" she said. I started crying as I slid to the floor. Frank and Maxie were immediately by my side. Just when I was feeling on top of the world it all came crashing down.
Before I knew it we were at the hospital in our hometown. I don't remember much about leaving the hotel or even the plane ride back. I was wearing Franks t-shirt and a pair of his sweat pants. I'm pretty sure he is the one who dressed me because I don't remember doing it. I pretty much zoned out from everyone.
As soon as we walked through the hospital doors, Ben ran up and hugged me. You could tell he had been crying.
" How bad is it" I asked while attempting to hold it together
"He… its not looking good….. You might want to sit down for this" Ben said
" I'm fine.. Just tell me what happened" I said accidentally snapping at him.
" I'm sorry I just.." I started to say
" Its ok… his seatbelt broke and he was ejected from the van. He is in a coma and on life support. One of his ribs punctured his lung and he had a bunch of internal bleeding…. They don't think… they aren't sure if he'll make it and if he does what extent of brain trauma he will have" Ben said. I lost it. I broke down even harder. Ben held onto me as I cried. He ran his hand through my hair which he knew from Ian was a comfort to me.
" Is everyone else ok? Where is Evan" I heard Lindsey ask. She and Evan were still dating.
" Everyone else is ok. Me and Elliott just have some bruising from the seatbelts and sore necks. Evan has a broken arm, a couple broken ribs, buts and bruising. He was driving. Ian was passenger. The truck ran a red light and hit us on Ian's side." Ben said
" I want to see him" I said
" Katie I don't think…." Max said
" No. he is my brother… my twin. I need to be with him. He has to know that I am here" I said.
" Do you want me or Luna or someone to come with you" Frank asked
" No, I need to be alone with him for a few minutes" I said
" ok… I'll be right here if you need me. I love you" he said
"I love you too" I said then kissed him. That's when Ben started leading me the long walk to Ian's room. In reality it was only a few doors away.

Rand Paul, a leading voice for conservative Republicans, said Tuesday that he would support allowing illegal immigrants already living in the U.S. to gain legal status, a potentially pivotal moment in the debate over immigration reform. "Hispanics should be a natural and sizable part of the Republican base," Paul, R-Ky., told the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. "But they have steadily...

Oh, my mistake.
Luke Woodham, 16, WHITE. Murdered two students at his school AND his own mother. Now in prison.
Kip Kinkel, 15, WHITE. Murdered two students at his school AND both of his parents. Now in prison.
Eric Hainstock, 15, WHITE. Murdered one student at his school. Now in prison.
TJ Lane, 17, WHITE. Murdered three students and told their parents that he masturbates to the memory at his trial. Now in prison.
James Holmes, 24, WHITE. Murdered twelve people at a premier of Batman. Now in prison.
Timothy McVeigh, 27, WHITE. Murdered 168 people and injured 600 more when he blew up a building in Oklahoma. Was executed in 2001, but only after a fair trial and appeals.
Not to mention all of the serial killers, school shooters and spree killers who are touted as being "misunderstood" and were given the basic liberty of a fair trial even though the majority of them committed crimes so abhorrent that I won't write about them on this blog.
But you're a right. A black, unarmed 18 year old boy who ALLEGEDLY held up a store deserved to be shot while he was on the ground. And he sure as fuck deserved to be laid in the middle of the street, uncovered for over 4 hours. And maybe because I'm a mother too but my mind automatically goes to his mother, she deserved to see her baby being treated like that right?
My mistake.
speak on it!
This is quickly becoming my catch phrase: Fuck white people. We deserve to get shot over a cigar. Over mistaken identities. Over suspicions. They fucking kill busloads full of people. They get a fair trial. A white motherfucker could blow up a building full of orphans and he'll at least make it to prison. Black dude? Nah. You're leaving that scene in a body bag and your family is going to prison. Then the cops will shoot your damn dog. Fuck white people.
The owner called and said he didn't steal anything.
The timestamp from the videos that white people are using as evidence? June. Two months before he was shot. Cops said the robbery happened on the same day as the shooting. Get the fuck out of here.

Armed with her evidence, she went down to the 32nd Precinct and filed a complaint. She was surprised to hear from the female officer who was helping her that this was not a matter for the police and she'd have to call 311 to complain to the city.
Considering public lewdness is a crime, the NYPD has subsequently launched a probe of the incident and released the cell phone photo of the perpetrator (see above).

This just happened today! I was on my way to catch a bus to go to my school around 9:30. As I was walking down, I was busy fixing my hair (looking down), but in the corner of my eye saw something. So i looked up and saw this hispanic guy in early30's or older masturbating. This is my first time seeing these things, that i was so disgusted and scared. So i kept walking. What was scary was that this guy knew I saw what he was doing, BUT kept doing it anyway NOW while walking around a car! I got scared and walked/ ran as fast as i could out of there!

I was on the bus to London Bridge, just 2 days ago. Some good looking English guy got on, ( I was with my mother). He walked towards the back of the bus and sat down directly two seats away from me. This guy kept on staring at me consistantly and I became very uncomfortable and fidgety. Few minutes later, BANG! This guy unzips his flyer and starts masturbating, little did I know I turn side ways and catch him playing with himself. He smiles weirdly and then I whisper what he is doing to my mum. She just tells me to just ignore him, (as according to her, he just wants attentions), then we move to the front of the bus. This guy is STILL masturbating, my mother being my mother. Starts cussing him and cursing him and then he finally zips up and gets off and covers his face. Lucky for him, no-one realised what he was doing. But, he is an example of London's finest', horny good looking guys wanking over a teen late at night. MDR, very shameful.

One time when I was 16 my friend and I were walking back to her car coming out of the mall and there was this green suv parked next to her backed in on the passenger side. As I walked up to the passenger side door and waited for her to get her door open and open my door I noticed some movement out of the corner of my eye. I looked over and seen a man laid across the backseat of the suv with no pants on mastubating! His windows were tinted some so I looked a bit closer and yes he was masturbating with a towel of some sort draped across his stomach. I stared in disbelief for a moment as he ejaculated, my friend finally opened my door and I got in. I didn't say anything to her about it until we were about half way home. She thought is was funny.

Yes, there are pedophiles that masturbate in public, that is a fact. But to say that people getting off in public are all into children is ignorant. That's like saying that all Chinese people are bad drivers, or all black people play basketball. Also, people being like "oh, it was scarring" is stupid. A guy touched his penis while looking at you, big deal. Take it as a compliment, it means that you're hot. The only time it is sick is when it involves little kids, otherwise it is nothing to feel "violated" about. It's not like you were touched or anything. It's when they squirt on you that it is violating. With all the bad crimes out there being committed, masturbating to a hot female in public is nothing.

I just want people to know that it is frightening for a women when she sees a strange man masturbating in public. I was walking to work the other day and saw one man masturbating in the bushes, watching women jog by then only minutes later, a naked man jumped out with a shirt over his face and masturbated in front of me. This is a true story. All of this happened on a university campus in a large urban center. Fetish or not, intent to harm or not, the fact of the matter is that as a women I felt vulnerable. When it happened I didn't know if the person was mentally unstable, harmless or hoping to drag me off somewhere. I now fear for my children in my neighbourhood. So those of you that do this are selfish, you do not have any concern for the well being of those around you. I felt victimized and it has been affecting my emotional well being. I suggest that you find a consensual outlet for your behaviour and leave the rest of us out of your fetish.

Where the hell do you people hang out? So many people saying it's a fact of life to see it all the time if you live in a city. Well I am a 34 year old man, and I have lived in cities all my life. I have lived in Brighton, Manchester and London and have never seen it in any of these cities! If these postings are mostly by girls and women, then I feel really sorry for them that there are so many perverts/ pedos all behaving that way. I hope the police get them, and when they get locked up they drop the soap. Hopefully that'll teach the sick vile animals. Trust me most police would immediately arrest anyone caught doing this where I live. It is an imprisonable offence. Take for example the George Michael siuation: look what happened there - and he wasn't even in the street doing it, he was in a toilet. A hell of a difference to getting your cock out and doing it the street where there are girls around. Sick bastards. This makes me sooo angry.

To be honest I always found this subject fascinating. Ok but keep reading lol. My true story was living above a shop with a secluded back entrance where they had a smoking area. Studying at the time I would often smoke a cigarette in the kitchen overlooking it. One day a girl who can only trully be described as Gods gift to men seemed to have joined them. Amazed as I was I stared at her as the days became weeks. Being young and fit back then at Uni in the height of summer, I often walked around with my top off and once she saw me looking at her and really studied my upper body. I didn't do anything but I was so turned on connecting eye contact with her as we admired each other. One late night high on intoxicants at a bar with friends we met their work party, I saw her as I was ordering and she mentioned me living above and the whole looking at her everyday thing. Drunk as I was I just blurted out that she was the most gorgeous girl I had ever seen and I loved watching her when she took her smoke break by herself at 4. She was a little embaressed and said she had a boyfriend, who was sitting over with her group. Then and I swear plain as day with a sly smile she asked "Do you wank over me?" At which I, drunk, stunned and semi-hard already could only reply, "Of course, I just wish look at me while I did it". Flushed red, she kissed my cheek and ran her hand over my chest and returned to her seat. The next working day I felt a little embaressed but eager to see her again. Not an obsession but almost like forbidden fruit, knowing what I had said I was eager to fufil it and hope she was not fooling me. Sure as day at 4 pm she came out. My God, I have to explain this girl trully was so gorgeous it would make guys and girls melt. I stood at the window, she looked at me and started making jerking actions with her hand and proceeded to give me full eye contact as I jerked hard. She could see what I was doing and even turned around looking over her shoulder as I admired her gorgeous figure. Regrettably she must have just been on a temporary contract as she left after we had repeated this for a couple of weeks. I swear the story is true and I've never been able to find an experience as hot since. Just to say, I think if it's an agreed thing women can be equally as turned on and in my opinion can like the attention, obviously if they are a consenting age unlike the weirdo 12 yo stories. Gross on that. Like to hear the girls opinions on my tale please? What was she thinking?

I've seen many females doing it in public. There were 3 girls that did it in different classes I had all through High School. I think they thought no one knew what they were doing. Also my 12th grade english teacher used to do it everyday in class at her desk. They mostly used that thigh-squeeze technique, but one of them used to actually sit in the back of the class and put a coat or sweatshirt over her lap then put her hand down her pants. I also saw a really hot chick do it in the waiting/lunch room at Winchester Hospital in VA. It was late at night and I was there for a pain in my side (turned out to be a pulled muscle). Anyway, this woman comes in with some guy I think it was her boyfriend. It was like 1 am and I think it must've been one of his family members who was actually in the hospital because as soon as they came in, he went into the emergency area and she stayed in the lobby. She had on really tight jeans and a blue t-shirt with no bra and her hair was all over her head (blonde). I was sitting in a corner couch seat facing one of the cealing mounted tv's and she sat at one of the round tables in the middle facing the tv but off to my right. She first started doing the crossed leg thigh-squeeze thing and quickly got really into it, she was doing it really hard. Then she came, jerking her head back really hard and gasping. I looked over at her and she was really red, with her eyes closed tight and she was shaking a lil bit, holding her breathe. She then put her right hand between her legs, up against her crotch and crossed her legs left over right while gripping the table with her left hand. She really started going for it. Since she didn't have on a bra and she was probably a small C or large B cup her chest/nipples were really pronounced and visible through the thin warnout looking tshirt. It was the hottest thing I had ever seen. I could see her from the corner of my eye, but also her reflection in the tv screen. But once she really got going, I could look right at her and she didn't even notice. She must've cum like 5 or 6 times. We were their for about an hour before I got called in. She was still going for it when I left... The horniest woman I have ever witnessed.

Yeah. I was in a notorious dive bar in santa cruz, ca and it was Goth Night, whatever that's good for. Anyway, my stories were earning me quite a few free drinks from the couple next to me, out on a "blast" since it was their God Knows How Many's anniversary. Oh, and I need to mention, I was wearing my motorcycle leathers because I ride a bike everywhere. So .... this guy to the other side of me was having a party in his pants, sweats he was wearing. He didn't seem to be any threat, and frankly I thought it was pretty cool that he was having a good time. I could certainly never get that worked up in public so live and let live. When I looked again after a bit, he was gone. Personally, if dudes in leathers work him up so much, why not get leathers and a bike and join a club or something? No lack of bikes etc for sale on Craig's List and all the riding stuff.

I do it all the time, almost everyday, I love the way the women pretend they aren't looking but are actually wishing the could join. I dont want to harm them in any way or actually come in contact, i just like knowing a strange girl is watching me. I just wish a girl might flash herself to me one day!

I've seen it a couple times, really I enjoyed watching... Never got up the courage to help them the three times though.

I do it. Usually in my car. I drive around looking at women and letting women in cars next to me at the stop light see.. I get off on being seen. I dont want to rape anyone or even have sex with the people who see me. But it is sure a rush to do it! Today I was driving down the freeway and a cute blond passed me on the left, I sped up and raised my hips up so she could see me masturbating. I frequently leave my fly open in public, and dont wear underwear. Also a rush. People pretend they do not see you, but I can tell when they do.

Women who call the police usually are just disappointed the guy didn't have sex with them. That makes them mad because they love looking at hard male genitalia.

I was once on Greyhound bus coming from the mountains into Denver, and I noticed a guy across from had his penis out and was looking at me. We went into some tunnels and when we came out he was masturbating. I watched. He came, ... we smiled and it was over. When we got to Denver I had noticed that I had a button open in the middle of my shirt and you could see the side of my breast if you had the right angle. I guess he thought I was helping!

Oh my god i do it all the time but only at night. Once I just wore a grey jacket undone and nothing else, walked a little bit from my house (far enough to not be seen from people in my house if they were looking), take my jacket of and run a good distance from it, making it more thrilling that im naked in public and far from my clothes. I can also suck my own dick so I do that for more thrill in public. But like I say, I only do it at night and the area i live in is quiet, there's no way I'd do this sorta thing during the day, but maybe one day. I also cum literally within 20 seconds sometimes due to such excitement and when I finish up, it's awful, you're nervous to put your clothes back on and it can be very scary, all because your sexual feelings are gone. Still, i just can't pull myself away from it when in the mood, but I think I should stop.

I guess I didn't look at as disrespecting someone but I can see how it might have been.I just didn't look at as personal thing; I do feel bad now for scaring women. I didn't mean to scare anyone now that I have read some comments I realize I did. If I had seen a thread like this maybe I would of thought twice about doing it'.

I have done it lots of times I have used raincoats with nothing under sometime just panties and when women would walk by I would drop the coat and jerk off. I did this some many times I can not count. It was fun until I got caught by the police and went to jail. I do not do it anymore:(

Exhibitionist tendencies and Pedophilia are utterly unrelated, ie. two separate things entirely. (responding to comment 45). What silliness to suggest such.
dikke-kus 5 years
I think the police know the reasons a man does this has to do with pedophilia. Men who have an obsession with children as sex objects. Overt acts like exposing one's genitalia to people are all crimes. The problem with these crimes is that pedophilia is also treated as a mental illness, and the pedophile is often released only to repeat the crimes or escalate the activity to the level of murder. So it's not funny or cute. It's totally creepy.
Girl101 5 years
Never have seen or done such a thing. Not that I haven't thought, while I was in public, about masturbating in private. Sometimes I can't wait to get home to my vibrator!!!! He misses me so. But doing the act in public, I don't see how anyone could concentrate enough to finish.

I was on the school bus going back home one day. Now keep in mind my school has kids from 6th grade and up. I was in 10th grade. So were at a red light and this guy in his car next to us jus starts strokin his stuff outside his pants. And I'm talkin to my friend and I'm like look at this guy. After a minute of gettin himself worked up he jus pulls it out and starts wailin away. This little 7th grade boy screams he's like OH MY GOD and the whole bus comes to our side of the bus and all the kids are in an uproar. Then the bus lady comes on the intercom and says in her country grammer Y'all must like it since y'all watchin! Lmao! Technically this wasn't public since he was in his car but I bet he didn't know he had a full audience. Ill never forget that lol.

My friend and I were at Port Authority, and she said there was a guy standing right behind me in a stairwell that was jacking off ... so I told her to get her phone out and take a pic to send to the NYPD [there's also a website for posting offenders]. Another time I was walking to my boyfriend's workplace on Park Ave, and there was a homeless guy laying on the sidewalk in front of a townhouse jacking off ... I ran like the wind the other direction.

Unfortunately, yes, many times. It's a fact of life when you live in a big city (and even more so when you take public transportation). I don't find it humorous in the least, but maybe it's because I've had to change my stance, behavior, and attitude as a result of the constant street harassment I experience.

Yes. Five years ago (I was only 15) I was on my way home from school--the street was empty and this car just sped up to me, parked into and blocked a driveway about 10 feet away, took his wang out and just started masturbating. I was actually stunned I mean wtf, right? I had to run to the next apartment and hide. Guh. :(

When I was in college, I saw a police officer pull over a car and subsequently let them drive off. The officer then pulled "it" out to take a piss on our bus stop. It was petrifying, but the weird thing was I lived in a very heavily populated area by a busy street. How could he have not known that someone would see. I did report it, but the dept. told me there was no one on duty in my neighborhood that afternoon, so that it must not have been one of "theirs." Creepy.

Not really, I have gone into a coed public loo after a teen walked and saw cum all over the seat though. Needless to say I decided I could wait and sussed out another loo. If people get off on people seeing them have a wank then why don't they get their partner to watch? Or pay someone to watch? Better than traumatizing the rest of us.

I was really caught off guard just walking downtown one day. The man was about 25 and probably someone I would have thought was cute until he stopped a couple feet from me as I was tying my shoe and started masturbating to me. It was traumatizing and I felt totally violated. I tried not to react however, as that's sometimes what an exhibitionist wants to see.

We look forward to seeing you soon!
400mts from the Roma St bus & train station. We are in a safe part of the city centre. Our street has good lighting at night and the hostel is secure. Cole�s supermarket is conveniently located across the road with Southbank parklands, travel agents, cinemas and Suncorp stadium all just as accessible. The Queen St Mall is 10/15 minutes walk away but the best thing about our location is the view of the river city from the rear sun decks of our property.
Check-in policy:
In the interests of security, all guests are required to produce government photo ID on check-in. Persons wishing to stay in our backpacking dormitory accommodation are required to have with them, a full sized traveller�s backpack. A backpack is not required to stay in a single, twin or double room.
GETTING AROUND: Simply walk to your destination, we are about 5 minutes walk from the famous Three Sisters, Echo Point look out, Scenic world, Katoomba waterfalls and Jamison Valley. Other destinations such as Leura forest walk and Leura Cascades can be reached by catching the explorer and trolley buses, which stop near the guest house.
BY CAR: If you are travelling by car from Sydney, the quickest route to Katoomba is via the M4 motorway, which becomes the Great Western Highway at Penrith. From Central Sydney simply follow Parramatta Road until the turnoff onto the M4 motorway. Keep driving toward Katoomba and turn left to Katoomba town centre, left at first roundabout and turn right onto Lurline Street, which is next to the Katoomba railway station. From there it takes 2-3 minutes drive on the way towards Echo Point and the Three Sisters.
BY TRAIN: From Central you can board an air-conditioned double decker Mountains train. The fast journey to the Mountains will most likely stop at Strathfield, Parramatta, Penrith, Emu Plains, and then all stations up the Blue Mountains. The trip from CBD to Katoomba will take under 2 hours. Trains generally run every hour and even more frequently during peak commuter times. Taxis are readily available from Katoomba Railway Stations, or the walk takes 20 minutes from station. Call 131500 for train times.

Nordic Walking Guide
Pages in this Story:
- Nordic Walking Facts
- Getting Started
- Who Makes Your Poles, Anyway?
- Perfecting Your Form
- New Ways to Walk
Getting Started
Nordic walking is a great workout for all levels because poles offer stability and the routine is considered low-impact. You can buy a good set of poles for around $100 in stores like REI or Sports Authority.
Don't Use Any Old Poles
Save the kind you ski with for the slopes. "You're best off using poles that are designed specifically for Nordic walking," says Malin Svensson, president of Nordic Walking USA in Santa Monica, California. You can choose between adjustable and nonadjustable models. The adjustable versions store easily and can fit more than one user; the nonadjustable models are generally lighter and won't accidentally collapse on you.
Size Them Up
Hold the grip with the tip on the ground and the pole vertical, arm close to body; your elbow should be bent 90 degrees. If you're buying online, nordicwalker.com has a chart that suggests pole height based on your height. If you're a beginner and between sizes, go with the shorter model -- you'll move more fluidly, says Mark Fenton, an International Nordic Walking Association master coach.
Strap In
Like shoes, poles come in left and right models. Find the correct side, then slide your hand through the strap and hold the grip. If there's an additional Velcro strap, wrap it securely around your wrist. Grip the poles lightly with your hands.
Pick Your Setting
Nordic walking poles come with rubber tips, which work best on paved surfaces. If you're walking in grass, sand, dirt or snow, remove the rubber for better traction.

Cancer Health Center
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
Symptoms of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Because CLL tends to grow slowly, many people with the disease have no symptoms for a few years. If this is the case, your doctor may "stumble across" your CLL after you've had blood tests for some other reason.
Any CLL symptoms you do have may be vague and difficult to pinpoint. General symptoms of chronic lymphocytic leukemia include:
- weakness
- extreme fatigue
- weight loss
- fever or night sweats
- lump under the skin, such as in the neck, groin, or arm pit (from enlarged lymph nodes)
- pain or increased "fullness" in the belly (from an enlarged spleen)
If CLL is more advanced, leukemia cells begin to replace normal blood-making cells. Then you may experience other symptoms. These symptoms result from the leukemia crowding out healthy cells. For example:
Shortage of red blood cells. This may cause symptoms of anemia, including:
- fatigue
- weakness
- shortness of breath
Shortage of normal white blood cells. This may cause:
- fever
- infections (recurring or severe)
Shortage of blood platelets. This may cause:
- bruising
- bleeding
- nosebleeds
- bleeding from gums
Stages of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Staging for most cancers looks at the size of a tumor and how far the cancer has spread. Leukemia is different, though. There is not a tumor, and the leukemia cells have often traveled to other organs when first detected. So CLL staging looks at other features to determine a likely outcome and the best treatment options.
In the U.S., the most common staging doctors use for CLL is the Rai staging system. They look at three risk groups when suggesting treatment options:
CLL Stage 0. This stage is low risk. The blood and bone marrow contain a high lymphocyte count. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell.
CLL Stages I and II. These are intermediate-risk stages. Patients have a high lymphocyte count. There is also swelling of the:
- lymph nodes
- liver
- spleen
CLL Stages III and IV. These are high-risk stages. In addition to a high lymphocyte count, the red cell count or platelet counts are low -- with or without swelling.
Treatment for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Depending upon the type and stage of your CLL, you may not need treatment -- or at least not right away. When advising you about treatment options, your doctor will also take into account:
- your age
- overall health
- benefits and side effects of treatment
It is often a good idea to get a second opinion.
You may have one or more of these types of treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia:
- chemotherapy
- monoclonal antibodies
- surgery
- radiation therapy
- stem cell transplant
Here are some details about these treatments.
Chemotherapy. This is a treatment with anti-cancer drugs. Many of these drugs must be given by vein (IV). But some may be taken by mouth. Some examples of CLL chemotherapy drugs are:
- Fludara (fludarabine)
- Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide)
- Treanda (bendamustine)
- Prednisone

It bothers me that in just a few short days it could all be over. We could be staring at the face of President Elect Mitt Romney. It doesn't make sense that this man, who inspired us all in such a profound way, could somehow be a one term president.
Get it together, America. You will never find a perfect candidate for president but it's rare to have the opportunity to re-elect someone so genuine. Do the right thing.

So sick of people complaining about the president. No one will do everything you want them to. There SHOULD be gun reform. We SHOULD take a hard...

A Brownsville couple is facing capital murder charges Wednesday. Police say they murdered their three children and left them for dead.
The kids were found in a downtown apartment. The Brownsville Police Chief describes the scene as a 'bloody, messy.' A 1-year-old was found decapitated, and two others ages five and younger were found in garbage bags. Police think the children have been dead since Monday night.
"All we know, the parents have been put into custody. They have confessed, the father has confessed, to killing the babies," said Brownsville Police Chief Carlos Garcia.
Their parents, 23-year-old Angela Camacho and her common law husband John Allen Rubio were each charged with three counts of capital murder. Bond has not been set either of them.

As many people plunged into the cold Tennessee River, one father, daughter duo had another reason to celebrate.
Kelly Busch Griffith says said very excited.
"My dad has been doing this for 11 years now, and I always said one of these years I'm going to do it with him," she said. "After battling breast cancer for all of 2012, I couldn't think of a better way to kiss that year goodbye, and ring in 2013."
Because of everything she's been through, this event is drawing her and her father closer together.
Her dad, Jerry W. Busch, said Kelly went skydiving as part of her "bucket list," celebrating life. Busch said he's proud of his daughter and of her accomplishments.

Christopher McQuarrie to write Live Action STARBLAZERS movie! MAYBE NOT! Could be LUCASFILM!!!
Hey folks, Harry here
Just got back from 2 hours of work outs to a very trusted source that tells me that the rights on this are nowhere near resolved. Skydance is hard at work negotiating to get the rights, but at the same time - so is LUCASFILM and others. It seems people are finally waking up tot he inherent awesome that is STAR BLAZERS... I could totally see Lucasfilm doing some amazing things with this too. What do you folks think?
Hey folks, Harry here...
Ok - we've seen this announcement before here at AICN. About a decade ago, Disney was looking to make a live-action STAR BLAZERS movie... but they never really cracked it. Now, the company that co-financed with Paramount, the Coen Brothers' TRUE GRIT, has optioned and making with Paramount a live action STAR BLAZERS film to be written by Christopher McQuarrie... who has become a crazy busy screenwriter. Personally, I wish they'd just hire him to direct it too, as his brand of swagger would go a long way towards making it kick ass.
My problem with an American version of STAR BLAZERS is that... frankly, the new live action SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO - is what I want to have distribution and to play in theaters in this country with subtitles. I've heard again and again that it kicks untold ass. That said, if done right - it could be amazing. But it has to be done note perfect. Mike Fleming over at Deadline broke the story... but I just hope that it feels right.
We're beginning to get to an age of film in the post AVATAR time period where the big ambitious science fiction fun stuff can be done. Now if someone would just finance Fincher's HEAVY METAL project and GOON project - I would be a truly happy camper!

about the Japanese ending!! (spoilers)
by Adam
yeah my brother lives in Japan and as longtime Star Blazers fan, he checked the film out..........for mild spoilers? a sequel would be, well, problematic. so i am all for a new big budget film of this with a hopefully more upbeat ending! ..darn Eastern sensibilities can get me down. he did however send me a magazine with many pix from it, and it looked fantastic.

Gatchaman dead?
by Major Hockshtetter
Along these same lines, anyone know the status of the Gatchaman CG film? I know IMAGI has closed their doors permanently after the lackluster performance of ASTRO BOY (which I kinda' liked... not perfect but a good try) but I wonder if anyone is going to take up this one. Much like Starblazers, if done right, G-Force would make one hell of a fun film.

I Wish Persons Unknown Had Survived
by Crow3711
I know it wasn't perfect, and literally 9 people watched it, but I really enjoyed that shoe for what it was, especially since it started right after LOST ended. It helped fill the void for a few weeks. It also had a pretty sweet cliffhanger which I would have loved to have seen continue. It's too bad NBC sucks at everything involving marketing, viewership, consistency, or recognizing a good thing. Basically everything that involves, you know...television. But between Usual Suspects and PU, I think I will always be going out of my way to find out what McQuarrie is up to and watch it. His works seems worth it so far

It should use first series as a basis...
by jimmy rabbitte
POSSIBLE SPOILERS... I guess... although if you've seen the series, you know this stuff already... The Quest for Iscandar is what they should be looking to tell. It would be a tight fit. They need to include a section on the destruction of Gamilon's base on Pluto; and they must-must-must include General Lysis and the Battle at the Magellanic Cloud.<p> They, also, need to include the Starforce's destruction of Planet Gamilon. The ending could be very much like the series ended; as the Argo (or they could choose to call it the Yamato) approaches Earth the voiceover says they returned in time to save the planet.<p> It'll be all about tone and proper casting/directing. This has potential to be a great film; but I'm concerned it'll turn out like some silly emo-styled teen drama, from those brilliant creative forces at the CW "network".

That holy trinity cannot be made into 2-hour-ish long Americanized movies without major concessions. Even the Japanese Evangelion 're-build' decided to toss out the balance of OVA content and head in a new, concise, direction. A CAPTAIN HARLOCK trilogy could be sweet, though.

Another Almost Impossible-to-Read Article
by adolfwolfli
"Now, the company that co-financed with Paramount, the Coen Brothers' TRUE GRIT, has optioned and making with Paramount a live action STAR BLAZERS film to be written by Christopher McQuarrie..." Perhaps it's intentional but this sentence reads like it was poorly translated from a Japanese television show. How about: "The companies that co-financed the Coen Brother's 'True Grit', Skydance Productions and Paramount, have optioned and will make a Starblazers film to be written by Christopher McQuarrie." Or: "Skydance Productions and Paramount (the financing and production partnership that brought us the Coen Brothers' 'True Grit'), have together optioned and will co-finance a Starblazers film to be written by Christopher McQuarrie" There's probably any number of ways to write this sentence, some of which are perhaps even more coherent than my quickly-written examples.

Would love to see a STAR BLAZERS: THE QUEST FOR ISCANDAR film
by SpyGuy
By all means, distribute the new SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO film here in the independent film theaters, but an American STAR BLAZERS film is the way to bring this property to the masses. Even with the introduction of anime into American culture, characters named Captain Avatar, Derek Wildstar, Mark Venture and Nova Forrester are going to be more appealing to than ones named Captain Okita, Susumu Kodai, Daisuke Shima and Yuki Mori.

Can't Wait To The SPACE CRUISER YAMATO Live Action
by NeonFrisbee
whilst cringing in horror as to what the American version might be... although, hey, the original dub (STAR BLAZERS) was pretty awesome.
Feb. 21, 2011, 3:26 p.m. CST
If done right, an American version will be closer in tone to the original.
by godaikin73
I grew up on this Anime and am half Japanese myself, but I have to agree with spyguy on this one. The art style of the original series clearly had a multiracial, predominantly western crew. In that respect, I feel an American version at least has the potential to do the original more justice than this latest incarnation. Just my .02.
Feb. 21, 2011, 3:41 p.m. CST

That video clip
by Doc_Martigan
Was boring as fuck. A ship doing nothing, a bunch of people talking to eachother from all over the ship, and a guy deciding to play time crisis at the end. I thought I might have been more interested if I understood the language, but then I watched it again just looking at the window of Japs watching it. They looked more bored than me, that one guy with the beard even sighed and rolled his fucking eyes. I like some anime, but damn near every anime is too long, melo-dramatic, about nothing other than the monster of the week, has fucking weird japanese fetishes and overtones, and has no business being adapted into an american movie unless it changed at its core. But at that point, why not just call it something different so you won't alienate the non-anime crowd and you won't infuriate the anime geeks.

SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO ENDING - 33rider
by Jimmie Harp
POSSIBLE SPOILERS!! I was in Japan during Dec, and saw it 4 times....the end is not as problematic as you suggest. Remember what happened to ALEX Wildstar in the original series? Yeah, could be the same thing here....the whole bit is shown from a distance, and nothing is sure but the salvation of the planet. I agree with everyone else - a new American version is a stupid idea, when THE FILM ALREADY EXISTS!! and is likely better than anything any American company would crap out anyway.

Yamato - yes; Star Blazers - no!
by AstroNerdBoy
I want the Japanese "Space Battleship Yamato" live-action movie brought over with faithful subtitles (to include full Japanese honorific usage). I absolutely want no part of anything "Star Blazers" even though I grew up with that version of the anime as an American cartoon. Now, if someone licenses this and decides to not make the American rewrite version of Yamato (Star Blazers) but do a proper live-action adaptation of the Space Battleship Yamato anime series, then I could go for that. The series could be made into a rather nice trilogy of movies.

Hope this ends up dying a slow, painful death along with the Akira film.
by elgato73
A Star Blazers film DOES NOT need to be made. A Japanese live action Space Battleship Yamato film already exists. This would be utterly redundant and would make no fucking sense. But as that GQ article pointed out, Hollywood has never made any sense. This is just like people wanting a Robotech film instead of a Macross film or a Battle of the Planets film instead of a Gatchaman film. Grow up. The American bastardizations of Yamato, Macross and Gatchaman are pathetic and prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the reason Hollywood is constantly putting out absolute shit is because people will eat it up left and right. I just hope I never see the day when American bastardizations of Akira and Evangelion show up in the multiplex. But I'm afraid because of all the morons around here that visit this site and others and proclaim I want a ROBOTECH movie, not a MACROSS movie, this will not only come to pass, it will create a new market for Hollywood to pass off more shit to us. Fuck you playkins and you're entire fucking fanboy ilk.

Macross > Robotech
by NeonFrisbee
Where's my goddamn official release of "Macross: Do You Remember Love?" ?!?!? Harmony Gold can suck it. (But, truthfully, I LOVED Robotech as a kid, back when it first aired. Was obsessed with it, really. Then I found out what they did to it... sigh... ) I still remember tracking down a VHS bootleg of Macross: DYRL back in the 80s, around the time Robotech was still in it's initial run ('85 or '86?), or maybe a wee lil bit after, and just watching it over and over and over again.

Whomever gets it, better...
by The Chebb
get it right. The Japanese movie was half assed - seriously as in Sony's Godzilla and the Star Wars Prequels Half Assed, well Godzilla was full assed, but enough about asses. Want my buy in? Give me an international crew as in the fighter pilots, the Marines, Yuki and load that ship up with more than 15 people, I want 2 fighter squadrons (36 fighters) instead of the five or six fighters, 2 Marine platoons...and give me flesh and blood Gamilons not some generic silver baddies and blue Abyss rejects...and an ending closer to the series puhlease.....this is Earth's last hope, shit the Galactica was better off in damn near every way....

You've seen it? It's bad? I don't like the changes you've described, but I still really wanna see it (even if it is just Space Cruiser Galactica).

Btw, The Original Yamato Crew Was Definitely All Japanese
by NeonFrisbee
I'm talking about from the anime. BUT, I don't think the transition to an international crew would be that tough to swallow. I would accept that and be fine with it. Something like AKIRA, though? That HAS to be ALL Japanese and set in Japan.

We don't need a live action Starblazers, we need

SPACE BATTLESHIP YAMATO released in the US.

hmm, it's only fitting that Lucasarts would help to release a Star Blazers film
by Stalkeye
being as how some ideas from Yamato were borrowed by Georgie.I'm sure that an American version would do the japanese counterpart justice.

No, screw Gundam let's have a Gatchaman Movie.
by Stalkeye
Seriously, Gundam hasn't been cool since Stardust Memory, and the CGI OVAs were OK at best but I'd rather see a Robotech (the late Carl Macek's concept and NOT Macross.) based film than Gundam.

Space Battleship Tomato

Yep, the first half of the movie had promise, then a Gamilon fighter is captured and it goes down hill from there as the aliens aren't "Flesh & Blood" but energy of some sort...don't know why energy would need battlecruisers/spacecarft and such, but hey what do I know? And yeah there were six space Marines, just as many fighter craft and it seemed like there were only a few people on the crew...I didn't get a sense of scale considering that the original Battleship had a crew of 2,500-2,800....I'm hoping that whomever gets it gets it done right....

Expanding on the international crew...
by The Chebb
the main players could be all Japanese, but some of the supporting personnel, Marines, fighter pilots, etc could be "international"....

George Lucas Ripped-Off Yamato/Star Blazers With Star Wars...
by Media Messiah
...thus, Lucas Film's interest here is deeply suspect. All they wish to do is lock-up the rights to Yamato/Star Blazers in order to prevent a western live action version from being made, and or, they wish to screw it up, ala the way one of Lucas' insiders did with Battlefield Earth (as its director)--this, in order to protect Star Wars from a similar, and competing, franchise. It is about killing the competition, by buying the competition. I have been telling you all for years, that Yamato/Star Blazers was at the center of a lawsuit between Lucas Film, and Glen Larson. George Lucas accused Larson of ripping-off Star Wars with Battlestar Galactica, however, Larson countered, with claims that both he and George Lucas...ripped-off Yamato/Star Blazers to create Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica. Larson even brought in the creator of Yamato/Star Blazers to testify against Lucas on his behalf. When asked why he just didn't sue both Lucas and Larson, he said it was against the Japanese honor code for him to sue for plagiarism, but he would testify for Larson. Further, in the story that I read about all this, an old out of print magazine, the name I do not recall, they alleged that Lucas was observed in Japan, circa 1974, viewing anime movies/tv series like Yamato/Star Blazers. The special effects design, production design, even the look of the Empire officers' uniforms, look like that of Yamato/Star Blazers, the latter appearing like the villains which the Star Force was facing. The Deathstar a straight rip of the Comet Empire, the zero-g space fighter dog fights--like X-Wing/Tie Fighter battles, the laser weapons effects, the pistol designs versus blasters, the planet destroying wave motion gun, like the planet killing death ray of the Deathstar, and of course, the smiling ghosts of the dead heroes, at the conclusion of the story, just like Return of The Jedi, and yet, Yamato/Star Blazers was first--years before Star Wars. Knowing these facts should inform all who are observing this situation, that Lucas has an agenda here, and it isn't good, with concern to Yamato/Star Blazers. Lucas only wishes to make sure that any westernized live-action version will not be in a position to threaten the future of Star Wars in any way, even if he has to option its rights, in order to undermine it, and shut it down. This isn't a white knight situation, on the part of Lucas and company, it, rather, is more like a hostile take-over attempt, and that isn't good for the future of any American produced live-action version of Yamato/Star Blazers. Lastly, should Lucas obtain the option rights, it places him in the position to manage the story and limit any negative fall-out should the media start asking questions about which came first, the chicken, or the egg, in regard to Yamato/Star Blazers and Star Wars. This is all damage control.

Gundam Does Need A Live Action Version--
by Media Messiah
...as well as Yamato/Star Blazers and Robotech. G-Force, although not as accomplished, was also cool!!!!

Just incredible bull$#17, Lucas . . .
by WX1
. . . and McQuarrie or whoever the f&%k in Hollyweird thinks they can do justice to Space Battleship Yamato (the real name, yes?). Time for honesty already: from the time of "Return of the Jedi" to that last Darth yelling and breaking glassfills of fluids, just tell yourself, Lucas has just not managed to deliver. I say, Japan, in all its ownership of Hollyweird take the gloves off, unsheath the proverbial katana and do an aggressive buyout of all Lucas properties (they can do it and still have a big chunk of change left). Do their own SW trilogy, all in Japanese language, filled with Bushido-ness and Yakuza-ness in the great tradition of Kurosawa, Fukasaku, all the greats. Would be a great, finally, "Star Wars" trilogy. Man. Glad I grew up with "Star Wars" alongside "Kikaida," "Kamen Rider," "Akumiza 3," "J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai," "Battle Fever," yep, all the tokusatsu and sentai greats. Was able to compare just how lame Hollyweird can be in their own sci-fi, etc. Sorry if you didn't get the same opportunity.
