'I watched them dig for my son's body:' Ben Needham's father speaks of his agony as he watched Greek police dig for remains
- Father of missing Ben Needham watched British and Greek police dig for remains on island of Kos
- He dressed like police officers so he could observe the dig unhindered
- Officers worked for days using specialist equipment in search for missing Ben
- JCB digger used by officers to trawl through mound of rubble near where he went missing in 1991
- His mother Kerry Grist still believes Ben - who would be 23 on Monday - is alive somewhere in the world
A man whose baby son went missing 21 years ago has spoken of the pain he felt as he watched officers search for the youngster's body.
Simon Ward, 42, a property developer from the north of England, flew to the Greek island of Kos when police from South Yorkshire started digging there in October, searching for the remains of Ben Needham, who vanished in July 1991 aged just 21 months.
He told the Daily Mirror how he dressed in clothes similar to police so he could watch the dig undisturbed as it unfolded, as well as about the painful mix of emotions he endured as he watched what could have been the final resting place of his beloved son.

Mystery: Ben Needham (left) was just 21 months old when he vanished in July 1991. His mother Kerry Grist (right) believes he is still alive
Co-operation: Greek and British police worked together to search for Ben, but found no trace of him. He would be around 23 years-old now
He said: 'I was watching every step of the way, every scoop of that digger, and it was weird because I wanted to be there, but at the same time there were heart-stopping moments when I thought they had made some kind of discovery.'
When he was not watching the dig he described how he would 'torture' himself by revisiting places in Kos that he had been with Ben.
'I would torture myself going back to places where I had been with him. Really I had just one good week with him in all my time with him on Kos, when we went to the beach,' he said.
Investigation: British officers search the ground for any sign of Ben using a mechanical digger. They have now returned to the UK
Painstaking: The latest search focused on a mound of soil and rubble near to where Ben went missing. It was thought the baby may have been covered by rubble during renovation work at the farmhouse
British officers joined their Greek counterparts and used specialist search dogs and hi-tech imaging equipment. However, they drew a blank following an extensive search.
Det Supt Matt Fenwick, from South Yorkshire Police, led the dig around the farmhouse in the hamlet of Iraklis that was being renovated when Ben disappeared 21 years ago.
He said: 'Even after the search we have done you can never say 100 per cent, but the search has been so extensive and so thorough it is very unlikely that he could be in the specific locations where we have searched."
Ben was being cared for by his grandparents Eddie and Christine Needham when he vanished from outside the farmhouse.
Painstaking: Officers used intricate techniques to search the ground in the area where the youngster went missing
Intensive: British police were granted a permit to carry out the search from the authorities on Kos
One theory is the toddler was accidentally trapped beneath piles of dirt and building material which were being dumped on the plot by a JCB digger working nearby.
Detectives had believed that a small Dinky toy car belonging to Ben could be key to discovering his fate.
They used specialist scanning equipment to
search for signs of buried metal as well as possible human remains.
Local people in and around the village of Iraklise helped with the operation to find the youngster.
Intricate: It was hoped that the search would at least have revealed some clues to Ben's whereabouts - but none was found
At work: Officers used probes - together with more hi-tech equipment - to test the ground in their search for Ben
Authorities on Kos granted a permit for the excavation based on 'reasonable suspicions' by British police.
The cost of the operation – certain
to be a substantial five figure sum – will be paid by British taxpayers.
Despite a number of possible sightings and a range of theories about what happened to him, no trace of the youngster has ever been found.

WASHINGTON — Some of the money from President Barack Obama's health care law is flowing to places you might not expect.
Two Texas public employee programs are among the top 25 beneficiaries of a $5-billion fund to shore up employer coverage for early retirees, despite Texas Gov. Rick Perry's vow to repeal what Republicans derisively call "Obamacare."
And records show the Huntsman family business, where GOP presidential candidate Jon Huntsman was once a top executive, received about $1 million.
Some see a gap between dire Republican rhetoric about the health care overhaul and the pragmatic impulse to cash in on a new government benefit.
"Lots of Texans are already benefiting from health care reform," said Anne Dunkelberg, a health care expert at the Austin-based Center for Public Policy Priorities. "Other than for political theater, there would not be the kind of opposition there is." The nonpartisan center advocates for the poor.
Employer-sponsored health insurance for retirees has been shriveling for years, ever since companies were required to report their liability to investors. Democrats who wrote the new law wanted to encourage employers to keep offering coverage. Only about 6 percent of private companies currently provide such a benefit for early retirees, according to the nonpartisan Employee Benefit Research Institute.
But that still works out to more than 400,000 companies. Add state and local government agencies, as well as union plans, and the number swells. The Obama administration's subsidy program got so many applications it stopped accepting new ones after approving more than 6,000. It pays 80 percent of the claims amount for early retirees ages 55 to 64 whose care costs between $15,000 and $90,000.
The top beneficiary: the United Auto Workers retiree medical plan, collecting more than $220 million.
"Some people have described this program as 'Cash for Clunkers,' in the sense that if you want it, you have to get in line first," said Paul Fronstin, an economist with the benefits research group. "There was a lot of advice given to be first in line." The original Cash for Clunkers paid people to trade in gas guzzlers for more fuel-efficient transportation. It created a marketing sensation before running out of cash.
Texas, it seems, heeded the advice. So did Huntsman International.
The Teacher Retirement System of Texas, a statewide system for public education employees, received more than $70 million as of Sept. 22, according to the federal Health and Human Services Department. The Employees Retirement System of Texas, which covers state employees, received about $30 million.
Huntsman International, the main operating subsidiary of the family-founded chemical conglomerate, is also collecting.
As candidates, both Perry and Huntsman have sworn to repeal Obama's signature health care law, which gradually extends coverage to most of the uninsured and makes other changes, including a ban on denying coverage to people in poor health and an unpopular requirement that most Americans carry insurance.
Spokesmen for the Perry and Huntsman campaigns said they see no contradictions.
Texas taxpayers also pay federal taxes, said Perry spokesman Ray Sullivan. "State taxpayers have a right to get those federal funds returned to them, in this care in the form of disbursement to the teachers and state employee retirement systems," said Sullivan. "No Texas law or policy needed to be changed in order for these agencies to be eligible to receive the funds."
Huntsman spokesman Tim Miller said his candidate, Obama's first ambassador to China and a former governor of Utah, is opposed to all subsidies.

This, though, is my latest favourite recipe. It's a Greek way of dealing with courgette gluts, cooking them, chopped, in olive oil with garlic, salt and pepper over a very low heat until they turn into a dark green slop. That might not sound very appetising, but it is an apt description for this ambrosia, which is both rich and creamy with a gentle garlic back-taste. It

ANNISTON, Ala. (AP) - A jury has recommended the death penalty
for Jesse Earl Scheuing, a Georgia man who was convicted in
Anniston on Friday in the shooting death of an Oxford convenience
store clerk in 2008.
The jury voted 10-2 on Tuesday to recommended the death sentence
in the capital murder case. The only other possible sentence was
life without parole.
Sean Adam Cook was shot to death Nov. 28, 2008 at an Express
Mart. The jury convicted the 24-year-old Scheuing, of Waycross,
Ga., after seeing video evidence that prosecutors said showed him
pulling the trigger.
Scheuing's fate now rests with Circuit Judge Malcolm Street Jr.,
who will announce his decision Nov. 9.
Two Weaver residents, James Potts and Tifani Kulp, are to stand
trial later this year on capital murder charges.

By Sgt. Brandon AndersonAugust 27, 2014
FORT HOOD, Texas (Aug. 27, 2014) -- In today's culture of miracle remedies for weight loss, it may seem a bit overwhelming for a person struggling to lose a few extra pounds to navigate through the multitude of possible solutions, this is where the staff of the Soldier Family Fit Facility here comes into play.
The staff provides guidance for Soldiers and family members, seeking to not only help them lose weight but also helping identify the underlying issues associated with obesity.
"We firmly believe that there isn't one-size-fits-all approach for weight loss," said Maj. Ronald Cole, the officer in charge of the Soldier Family Fit Facility. "Often people think that diet alone is enough, but research has proven that not to be so."
Cole said the staff utilizes a multi-tiered approach that begins with a health assessment review to help people reach weight loss goals.
"We want to get a brief health history of the individual," said Allyson Pritchard, the director of the Army Wellness Center. "We try to identify contributing factors causing their weight issues, that goes beyond just counting calories."
Pritchard said, often these underlying issues are at the root of a person's inability to lose and keep excess weight off.
"When we look at the impact of weight management, it's not just about calorie counting but other influences," said Pritchard. "We also look at things such as stress and other aspects from a behavioral standpoint."
Pritchard said the staff wants to help make lifestyle changes to ensure continued success in meeting the individual's goals.
"Based on the initial consultation, the staff will then make recommendations to help them accomplish these goals," said Pritchard.
Pritchard said, concerning the nutrition aspect of weight loss, they try to use evidence-based programs to help their clientele.
Cole said, along with the nutrition programs his staff stresses the importance of healthy life choices.
"There's no diet that's being pushed on this campus," said Cole. "We're more interested in promoting healthy eating and healthy life choices."
Cole states others factors of weight management such as sleep, activity and nutrition are also addressed at the campus.
"All these things count when it comes to someone trying to gain or lose weight," said Cole.
Echoing Cole, Pritchard emphasized a person who is under a lot of stress functions differently than a person who isn't.
"There are certain chemical reactions taking place in their bodies and, although they're doing all the right things, the amount of stress they're dealing with can certainly affect their ability to manage weight," said Pritchard.
After determining the individual's goals and obstacles to reaching those goals, the campus offers programs to help them take their health to the next level.
"One of the programs we offer is the Army Well Program," said Cole. "You're partnered with someone as you go along your journey, so we become married in this goal of achieving what you're trying to do."
By using programs such as this, Cole states the success rate tends to go up because of the accountability aspect of the programs.
"Our goal is to take them from one level of success to another by providing them with the tools and the people around them to be successful," said Cole.
For more information on how the Soldier Family Fit Facility can help accomplish a healthy lifestyle, you can contact the campus at (254) 247-4850.

A Duluth couple are turning their dream of living in a historic fire hall into a reality.
Laura and Bob Goewey bought the 1930s Park Point fire hall in a July auction for $235,000. The Duluth News Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/Y2mXCo ) they plan to restore the building's period character as they renovate the inside for their home.
When everything is done, the Goeweys will hold an open house to show the community how they've combined modern living with the fire hall's vintage past.
Laura Goewey says moving into the fire hall will allow them artistic freedom to decorate in a quirky way, and feel like they are doing something good for the community.
Local preservationists are happy the Goeweys are choosing to reuse the building and retain its historic character.

Rolls-Royce Predicts Higher Full-Year Profit on Costs, Ships
Rolls-Royce Group Plc, the world's second-biggest engine maker, raised its full-year earnings forecast, saying profit will be "modestly" higher than in 2009 as it reins in spending and boosts sales of ship turbines.
Improved cost controls and "strong trading" in the marine business in the first half helped offset a reduction in profitability at the jetliner-engines unit, where the market was "subdued," London-based Rolls said in a statement today.
"The nature of our business is very long cycle -- we lag recessions going in, and we lag going out," Chief Executive Officer John Rose said on a conference call, adding that the company's performance in the first half was "robust."
Adjusted net income slipped 3 percent in the six months to 346 million pounds ($541 million) from 362 million pounds a year earlier, excluding the impact of currency hedges, in line with the 345.8 million-pound estimate of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Sales rose 5.4 percent to 5.42 billion pounds.
CEO Rose said at the company's annual meeting on April 29 that underlying profit would be "broadly similar" to 2009's.
Rolls-Royce, which competes with General Electric Co. and United Technologies Corp's Pratt & Whitney unit in the aero-engines market, rose 3.3 percent and was trading up 2 percent at 599.5 pence as of 8:39 a.m. in London. The stock has gained 26 percent this, valuing the company at 11.1 billion pounds.
Rolls reported a first-half loss of 334 million pounds, or 18.07 pence a share, compared with a profit of 1.86 billion pounds, or 99.95 pence, a year earlier, including adjustments to reflect the value of financial hedges unwound or "marked to market" at the end of the period.
Sales jumped 11 percent to 1.34 billion pounds at the marine unit, which makes power systems for the oil-exploration industry, specialist vessels and warships, with underlying profit advancing 55 percent to 171 million pounds.
Engine Question
Rose said it's hard to make an argument for adding new engines to Airbus SAS and Boeing Co. single-aisle jetliners as the planemakers ponder whether to upgrade the planes or build entirely new models.
"Boeing are really saying the right option is a better aircraft later," Rose said on a conference call. "In the case of Airbus, what we've said is we can't see a business case for re-engining. If things change we would obviously review it."
Rolls-Royce, one of 11 contractors slated to hold cost-cutting discussions with Britain's Ministry of Defence as Prime Minister David Cameron's coalition government seeks to slash spending, got a boost to its defense business yesterday with a 200 million-pound contract from India to power 57 BAE Systems Plc Hawk trainer aircraft.

jacklunkas: Many thanks for this post. Longtime owners of DECK know that this is extremely good news. Years ago Oprah generated huge demand for UGGs by choosing them as one of her "favorite things" for Christmas. And her specific choice is a $300 style!
I would really like to see the OPRAH UGG. DECK needs to look into this. They have individualized UGGS, but now they should come out with celebrity UGGS.. like an OPRAH UGG, a HEIDI UGG ..etc.
Sales will skyrocket

The Six Day Horror Movie: A No-Nonsense Guide to No-Budget Filmmaking
When someone offered Michael DiPaolo USD5,000 to make a Digital Video horror film, he jumped at the chance to test a theory: an ultra-low budget feature, shot in less than a week, with both a paid cast and crew, could be successful if meticulously planned. Using one computer and one camcorder, he produced, edited, and distributed Daddy in 2003. emphasizing that the most important aspects of successful producing are careful planning and camaraderie in the group. The work covers many points important for the low-budget filmmaker, including storyboards, budgeting (everything from actors to hair-styling to insurance), collecting a crew and dealing with problem members, casting, scouting for locations, equipment, scheduling, rehearsing, costuming, food, transportation, and what to do if you run out of time or money. Postproduction is also covered (editing, computer work, and sound design), as is the result of all this hard work: screenings, festivals, and distributors. A chapter covers Hitchcock's theories of point-of-view, and another profiles some role models for the aspiring filmmaker: Edgar Ulmer, Val Lewton, Roger Corman, John Cassavetes, Ed Wood, Jr., and Jean-Luc Godard. Later chapters explain strategy and tactics of filmmaking and show the budding filmmaker how to recognize both his limitations and his strengths.

Political solidarity is alive and well among GOP members of the Texas Panhandle's legislative delegation.
Given the demographic trends facing the state, our region's lawmakers will need to be more unified than ever.
Five incumbent Republican legislators boarded a bus Monday morning at the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center in Amarillo to announce their re-election bids. They traveled to six Panhandle communities. From Panhandle to Pampa, Dumas to Dalhart and Hereford to Canyon, the message was the same: The redrawing of legislative boundaries makes our region's solidarity more important than ever.
The team approach to announcing re-election efforts has helped preserve a potent Panhandle legislative team. State Reps. David Swinford, R-Dumas, John Smithee, R-Amarillo and Warren Chisum, R-Pampa, joined state Sens. Teel Bivins, R-Amarillo and Bob Duncan, R-Lubbock, in announcing their re-election campaigns.
Throughout the daylong bus tour, legislators spoke of their mutual respect for each other and for the work they have done - and will do - for the Panhandle.
Missing from the tour, of course, was Democratic House Speaker Pete Laney of Hale Center. Since the tour was billed as a partisan event, it is understandable that Laney would not attend it. His presence as a part of the delegation, though, is unmistakable - and every bit as valuable to the region.
The Panhandle's teamwork will become even more valuable as the 2003 session convenes.
Newly drawn lines will stack more power in urban areas. Panhandle legislators made it clear they intend to fight for rural interests. They intend to ensure that money keeps flowing to the region to fund our highways and our schools. They intend to keep fighting for our institutions of higher education. They intend to preserve our region's natural resources.
This is welcomed news for a part of Texas that hasn't enjoyed the explosive population growth that other regions - such as the large metropolitan areas and the Valley - have seen.
Panhandle residents have much at stake in the upcoming session. We all should make sure that the region's lawmakers make good on their pledge of solidarity and that they do as they promised throughout their bus tour.
As Smithee noted on more than one occasion this week, legislators will "ignore" the boundaries that separate the legislative districts and "represent the entire Panhandle."
Let us hope they do.

Panfilio infuses 'Rita' with hopeful humor
In the opening scene of "Educating Rita," Willy Russell's bittersweet play about a 26-year-old hairdresser trying to start over and the alcoholic literature professor assigned to help her, Rita bounds into Frank's book-lined study for her first lesson.
Her attention is immediately drawn to an ostensibly chaste but erotically charged portrait on the wall, and within the blink of an eye she has offered a bawdy, original and wide-ranging interpretation of how that portrait works. Admitting he hasn't looked at it in years, the best Frank can manage is the bland assessment that it's "beautiful." »Read Full Article

A Knight's Castle in Tennessee
STATS: A 19,963-square-foot, nine-bedroom home with eight full baths and four half-baths on 13 acres. The owners are auctioning the property without a reserve on June 16 through Concierge Auctions. Property taxes in 2010 were $115,713, according to the owners.
DETAILS: The owner spent 10 years building this castle, modeling it after one that he'd seen in Spain. Completed in 2003, the house features 22-foot-tall doors from Paris, a pub, a billiards room and an indoor basketball court. Two craftsmen from Greece made the moldings (it took them 3½ years). The home theater has a ticket booth, a bar and a hand-carved fireplace. A room hidden behind the paneling in the Napoleon room (all the rooms have names) was designed as a panic room. There is a separate apartment over the four-car garage for the staff. On the grounds are a boathouse, a stone fountain carved in Florence and a racetrack.
SELLERS: Steve and Ashley Grindstaff. The couple work together running five car dealerships that they own in Tennessee.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD: This is bluegrass country and each year the city hosts the Little Chicago Blues Festival as well as the Blue Plum Festival.
WHAT WE PAID: The owners estimate that they have put $28.5 million into the land and the house.
WHAT DREW US TO THE HOUSE ORIGINALLY: "Steve came from a very humble family and always dreamed of being a knight and one day living in a castle," says Mrs. Grindstaff.
Open House
- 191 Degrasse Dr., Johnson City, Tenn.
WHY WE'RE SELLING: The couple is moving on to other things, including the impending birth of twins. Mrs. Grindstaff would like to build a home in the style of a Southern plantation. The castle has been on and off the market for several years. When their broker suggested an auction, they agreed that it would get them the best price.
WHAT WE'LL MISS: "We'll miss the privacy and the spaciousness," says Mrs. Grindstaff. She adds that people especially like the racetrack and the four Italian race cars (they come with the castle).
WHAT WE WON'T: The yelling, says Mrs. Grindstaff. There is no intercom system.
OTHERS SAY: Stephanie Conner, managing broker at Crye-Leike Real Estate Services, says she has never seen anything like it in her 16 years in the real-estate business. "To be in a house in our area with a grand hall is pretty unique in itself," says Ms. Conner. She adds that the large amount of acreage and the privacy also make the property stand out. The original asking price for the castle was $28.5 million. "For the sellers it would be great if they could get that, but it's up in the air what it will bring," she says.

I have subscribed to a VPS service for the purpose of running some remote applications. To do this I'm going to need a remote desktop of one sort or another.
With this in mind it was suggested that I try Ubuntu. The installation that was prepared for me was Ubuntu 11.10 64 bit (Ubuntu 11.10 (GNU/Linux 2.6.18-348.4.1.el5.028stab107.1 x86_64))
From here I used
apt-get install ubuntu-desktop which completed successfully. I rebooted the machine and reconnected via ssh.
When I attempt to connect from TightVNC on my Windows machine I get a message about the session being actively refused.
What should I do to confirm the service is running? Do I need to setup a firewall rule to allow the ports to pass through?
(I am a linux newb so explicitness is appreciated)

I would like to run Word Press Locally on XP Pro but cannot make My SQL work in XAMPP. The Apache server starts just fine but the MySQL server starts and stops immediately.
Thanks for Word Press, it's great!!!
I would like to run Word Press Locally on XP Pro but cannot make My SQL work in XAMPP. The Apache server starts just fine but the MySQL server starts and stops immediately.
Thanks for Word Press, it's great!!!
Looks like the XAMPP support forums are located at http://www.apachefriends.org/f/
I tried stopping windows firewall and my Internet security, still no good. I don't know how to add ports. Matt's local install page say's WP will work on XP Pro if you stop IIs. Don't know what that means either!
IIS is a service that starts automatically on XP Pro.
Press ctrl-alt-delete and in the task manager that comes up, stop the iis service. Then see what Xampp does.
Also run the port-check which is in the xampp directory.
I have Xampp and IIS together running on one computer. Xampp is looking while installing for ports to use. It can be an option to de install, and then install again. You also have to do your ussername and password for MySql.
BTW, the firewall doesnt matter. You can leave that one running, but my advise is to look for ZOneAlarm Pro or something.
What does IIS have to do with MySQL??? Please some one tell me. One is a webserver and the other is a database server. They are different and independant of each other.
That said... is there a chance you have SQL Server running on it? I had a problem with getting MySQL to run a while back and it's because I had SQL Server running and both were trying to bind to the same port. Once I stopped SQL Server, MySQL fired right up w/o any issues.
IIS have nothing to do with MySql. I dont know how you get does problems because I also have SQL for my ASP development, but did not have any problems installing MySqL
I found my mistake! The box on XAMPP Control Panel SVC was checked for both Apache and MySQL. I unchecked these and both started right up. Now I'll follow Matt's instructions and see what happens. Thanks to you all

Is there any disk imaging software out there that can intelligently take an image of an encrypted LVM partition, if I provide the passphrase?
I am referring to software that is similar to Clonezilla and Norton Ghost.... scan the partitions, save the image to a file on another drive, then the image can later be used to overwrite the partitions to restore the system to the saved state.
By "intelligently" I mean only imaging the used space of the partition and compressing the data in the image, like what those imaging software programs can do with regular unencrypted partitions. A variety of software can image the whole raw encrypted LVM, but without the ability to decrypt with my passphrase, it wouldn't know what is free space so it would image the whole thing and the encrypted data would be uncompressible.

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (AP) -- An animal rights group is suing a Santa Cruz biotechnology company that has already been cited by federal regulators for a long list of animal welfare violations.
Stop Animal Exploitation Now filed the lawsuit Thursday against Santa Cruz Biotech, Inc., a biochemical research company that makes animal health care products.
The suit claims the firm illegally mistreated animals, including 10,000 goats and 5,000 rabbits, to reduce production costs in violation of California's unfair business competition and animal cruelty laws.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's complaint against the firm listed animal welfare violations stemming back to 2007.
The group says USDA's complaint failed to stop the cruelty, so it filed suit in an attempt to get a state judge to intervene.
Santa Cruz Biotech said it disagrees with the allegations and complies with animal welfare laws.

2002 Mazda Truck Cab Plus 4dr Cab Plus B4000 4WD SB (4.0L 6cyl 5M)
B4000 has lots going for it PRIMARILY
the 4L 208HP, largest in class -
greatest horsepower per dollar spent
(w/ Ranger). Nissan "supercharged"
engine is slightly larger, 210HP, but
less responsive/slower & supercharged
engine lacks towing/off road power.
Challengers: Ranger, S10, Tacoma,
Dakota & Frontier. Tacoma/Frontier only
come in 4 full or 2 door models; no
have ½ doors. Drives the cost up such
that one may be better off looking at
bigger trucks.
Fun truck, lots of functionality &
power, nice high ride, good visibility,
shift on fly 4wld, large/cool tires w/
strong, elevated suspension, 4 doors &
features (bed-liner, cover, bed
The engine/drive! Lots of truck
packed into compact. 1/2 doors in the
back are great for my dog (rear jump
seats stink but serve a
purpose). Extras (you have to buy)
round out package, expect to spend
~$24K well equipped which matches up
well against comparable competitors.
Mazda could make more features
standard, & need to continue to
manufacture the storage box. Rear
seats are cramped. Not sure on future
of the B3000 as this trim level seems
like a waste to me as it is just a
weaker version of the B4000 for only
about $1200 less.
great vehicle if it wasn't in the shop
all the time. Entire clutch system
replaced, transmission and computer
problems. This truck is great when it
runs, inside and out. Has plenty of
power, gas mileage is terrible (14
city). This is my fourth since 1994
and I will not buy another. Two were
good and two were bad. 50% is not very
rental car I needed it
I think Mazda's differences in interior
and exterior won me over, verses the
Ranger. It feel's tight,no rattle's,
has lot's of power, and it's a ball to
drive. And with a 50,000 mile warranty,
Mazda belives in it more than Ford does
their Ranger.
Look's, comfort, power,ride. It has it
Turn signal arm too low. Move it up to
about 9 or 10 o'clock
Great vehicle to run errands to the
lumber yard, the nursery, the dump etc.
It is very sporty, has great handling
and adequate cargo capacity for its
intended use.
It is the right size for city use and
can be parked easily in our relatively
narrow driveway.
Dealer was fair in the purchase
Powerful engine, good ride for a truck,
very reliable, well equipped
The 200 horses do get thirsty at

Clean House while on Cancer Treatment
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
This may seem like an odd question. My mom is about to start chemotherapy for stage II breast cancer.
The question is, will the condition/cleanliness of my mom's home impact her health during treatment? Mom has never been a neat freak as it's just not a priority for her, and up until now it hasn't caused her any issues.
However, if she is going to be at risk for infection [secondary to the treatment] and the home is messy/dirty, could it complicate things?
Nancy Zieber, RN, MSN, CRNP, Oncology/Hematology Nurse Practitioner, responds:
During the chemotherapy treatments, it is common for the white blood cells (WBC's, which fight infection in the body) to be decreased in number. Most often the WBC count is lowered to an "acceptable" level, and most healthy women do not develop fever, chills, or infection. It is also common for women being treated for breast cancer to have an injection of a drug called Neulasta on the day after chemotherapy to help maintain the white blood cells at a more normal level.
So while on chemotherapy with blood counts lower than normal, your mother is at risk for infection. Most often these infections come from bacteria within our own body, but because the white blood cell count is low, the bacteria may present in an area which can cause infection. For example, it is normal for everyone to have bacteria in their bowel/stool. You or I might have some of that bowel bacteria enter our bladders, but our body's normal defenses, (like the white blood cells) manage to take care of the bacteria. However, for someone on chemotherapy who has low white blood cells, the bacteria may cause a bladder infection.
It would be best to have a clean house with routine vacuuming, dusting, mopping, sink cleaning, regular dish-washing, crumb removal off surfaces, etc. If the house is actually dirty now, then it should be cleaned first. Ultimately the most important way to prevent infection during treatment is good hand washing, meaning both by mom and by all visitors. During treatment, people are often too tired to clean, so household chores may be something you or other loved ones could do to "help her out", while at the same time taking care of your own worries.

Antioch College Section :: Page 18
Forum examines town and gown
Last Friday night at the Corretta Scott King Center for Cultural and Intellectual Freedom, about 75 college and village representatives came together to talk about the strength that could be created by fostering positive relations between the village and Antioch College.
Antioch faces myriad challenges
The revived Antioch College is moving forward toward its goal of welcoming its first class of new students next fall, according to new President Mark Roosevelt at last Saturday's meeting of the college's pro tempore board of trustees.

On Friday, Jan. 21, at 8 p.m., Antioch College will host a community forum to examine community norms at the revived college. The event takes place at the Coretta Scott King Center.
Roosevelt ready to lead, and sink roots into community
To some of Mark Roosevelt's colleagues, leaving a job as superintendent of the 30,000-pupil Pittsburgh school district to lead a reopened small-town college hoping for 25 students next fall did not seem wise. But Roosevelt said he could not pass up the chance to become the first president of a revived Antioch College.
