Voice: Kristi Elliott, Auburn
In 2004, my teenage daughter learned she had a life-threatening disease by a doctor who specialized in rare diseases. Her diagnosis took over a year, and during that year, family doctors and hospitals misdiagnosed her symptoms, not because they didn't care but because they just didn't know enough.
Why did it take me almost a year to visit numerous specialists? Because my insurance wouldn't cover specialized care. Until my husband and I decided our financial priority was our daughter's health, we listened to the advice of those capable yet limited doctors.
A national health care plan sounds lovely on the surface; no one really wants anyone to face illness without insurance in today's economy. But like my insurance, the inherent problem with the universal idea stems from the illogical notion that a government, laden with bureaucracy, can recruit doctors of the caliber needed to diagnosis future sons and daughters' of American mother and fathers.
Currently, the United States provides health care to more than 50 million people in the form of Medicaid. While that may not be a national program for all Americans, it covers a lot of people. Yet, how often do those covered find adequate care, specialized care? Just in Michigan, the number of doctors who will see Medicaid patients had fallen from 88 percent in 1999 to 64 percent in 2005, and even lower today.
Why do physicians stop taking government funds through Medicaid? Because government funds do not bear the burden of technologically advanced care or specialized care or even expensive treatments. A national health care plan might work for some preventative care; mammograms, colonoscopies and childhood wellness visits come to mind. However, if a greater need is required, I believe, Americans will get what they pay for: nothing for nothing.
And I'm not willing to risk the lives of American children, mine or yours, on a program designed by a government too big already.

The national media had lots of interesting things to say about the 2014 New Orleans Jazz Fest, so as we're wont to do on occasion, we thought we'd share some of their (sometimes lofty) observations.
With that, here are a few things we're saying about what the national media are saying about New Orleans Jazz Fest: We agree with the SPIN commenter who noted that Maison is not in Treme (let's face it, our city neighborhoods can be confusing even to us); we find it curious that Rolling Stone finds Miss Linda's Ya-Ka-Mein the "best food on Fest Grounds" (it made Brett Anderson's list of favorites, but the very best?); and we loved the beautiful people and the beautiful photos and beautiful settings of the Harpers Bazaar photo gallery about their Jazz Fest weekend, including the one photo actually from Jazz Fest; and we think it's totes adorbs that Philadelphia Inquirer music writer Dan DeLuca thinks a Mardi Gras Indian gang is a "krewe." (In his defense, he dubbed Prejean's gumbo his festival food fave, and made lots of other really cool observations.)
That said, here's what they're saying:

- The 20 best things we saw at New Orleans Jazz Fest 2014 (SPIN)
- Girl Talk: Mia Moretti, Cleo Wade, & Margot's Jazz Fest Weekend (Harpers Bazaar)

Council members passed the ordinance by a 6-to-1 vote Monday evening, with offenders facing 90 days in county jail, a fine of no more than $500 or both.
Joyriding is defined in the ordinance as "No person shall take or use another person's motor vehicle, without authority, without intent to steal the same, nor shall any person be a party to such unauthorized taking or using of another's vehicle."
The ordinance does not apply to anyone employed by someone who allows them usage of a vehicle as part of their daily business.
Motor vehicles are described as vehicles using mechanical power, with the exception of traction engines, road rollers and other that run on rails or tracks.
Councilman Steve Heffner was the lone no vote, arguing over the wording in the ordinance and the crime being perpetrated.
"Taking a vehicle without permission...that is stealing. I'm sorry that's just how I fee," he said. "I have to vote no on this. If you take something without permission, it's stealing."
But Council Vice President Duane Haskins said the ruling is not punishment of the act of taking the vehicle.
"It's basically how the law is written as far as the charge goes," he said. "It's still stealing."
An option still remains of charging offenders under the state law with a two-year circuit court high misdemeanor that City Attorney Richard Austin has stated is often pled down to a 45- or 90-day jail sentence.
Austin said the ordinance would allow for a portion of the fine and costs from convictions under the law to stay with the city and cut down on hours police officers spend in district court in Flint.
The ordinance will go into effect 30 days after publication in a local newspaper.

The University of New Orleans' Children's Center will be closed Monday because of the boil-water alert in Orleans Parish, UNO spokesman Adam Norris said. This action was a result of the drop in water pressure Sunday after a power failure at the New Orleans Sewerage & Water Board's power plant.
Although the center will be closed, its staff should report to work, Norris said.
"While we apologize for the incovenience, the welfare of the children in our care is our chief priority," he said.
Representatives of Tulane and Loyola universities said students were being given bottled water.
At Tulane, bottled water was delivered to each dormitory -- 6,000 bottles in all, spokesman Mike Strecker said.
At Delgado Community College, the Joey Georgusis Center for Children provided bottled water for 40 children and 11 staff members, college spokesman Tony Cook said.

Welcome to CampingYurts.com
Camping yurts are lightweight, portable shelters, ideal for family camping, vacations, temporary accommodation, special events, or even weddings. They are very spacious with lots of headroom, yet pack-down small and can be easily loaded on a car roof. Our Yurts are an investment in both beauty and practicality, no camping shelter is more attractive and utilizes space as efficiently as a Yurt.
Yurts were originally created by the Mongolians hundreds if not thousands of years ago. Unlike the permanent yurts you now see in many State Parks and campgrounds, our Yurts are more traditional in the sense they are lightweight and portable. They are specially designed for camping, weighing in at about 120lbs (12ft yurt) and are very, simple to set up and take down – as you will see from the video further down the page.
Camping Yurts used in the movies, TV and print media
Being an icon for the green and back to nature movements, yurts are appearing more and more in movies, TV and print media.
Our Camping Yurts have been used in various TV shows such as Arrested Development & Revolution and Print ads for Honda and REI. Have a look at our "Yurts in the Media" page.
If you are a production company or ad agency looking for yurts, we can accommodate just about anything you may need.
Office Yurts – A whole new idea!
Meraki.com, a high tech company in San Francisco approached us to create some custom 12ft office yurtsto be used as informal meeting/work rooms.
Made in Cherry wood, they have higher walls (65″) four slim vertical windows per yurt and double wood doors.
The "office yurt" was a first for and since making these for Meraki we have qalso done one for Whole Foods. I can't think of a better space to have a meeting on low comfortable couches inside a yurt.
Our yurts are already being used for booth stands at shows and expos etc, but this is a great new idea.
Richard Waters interviewed at the Medford Green Show
Follow up interview at FaerieWorlds Music Festival 2013
Our yurts can be used for year-round camping. You stay cool in the summer, by raising the bottom of the wall canvas, which draws-in cool air and the warm air rises and exits through the roof wheel in the center.
You can keep snug and warm in winter by simply adding a wood stove – perfect for those winter hunting trips. Our yurts are not designed for permanent living, but for camping, temporary accommodation in the back yard, workshops, quiet spaces etc. etc. Many States are now requiring planning permission for yurts, but as these are camping yurts and truly temporary, they are exempt. (Check with local laws though).
Yurts and Gers have been used for thousands of years by Mongolians and other eastern nation, because they are spacious , lightweight and very portable. Due to the financial crises and economic downturn, people are now using yurts as cheap alternative housing.
We sell our yurts either complete or in various kits. They come in different sizes (8ft, 12ft, 14ft, 16ft, 20ft & custom 24ft) and with a variety of natural cotton canvas: heavy duty 14oz & 12oz or lightweight 10oz. We also stock Sunforger Marine Canvas that is water and mildew resistant. We even have organic cotton canvas.

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
Ordered, which included the hair bun covers, the white sash, and the costume itself. I was running out of time to find the remainging accessories before Otakon, so I had to make some compromises on her spiked wristlets and boots. I was lucky to find the wristlets I ended up with for cheap at a local store. The white converse I bought at Journeys, and the tan tights at Rite Aid.
I also used my natural hair for this.
- Personal Thoughts:
- I've always admired old school fighting games and their characters. The character designs are so bold and dynamic, exaggerated and whimsical. As a cosplayer, this was something I wanted to explore, and I thought what better place to start than the First Lady of Fighting herself!

WASHINGTON -- Amtrak will start randomly screening passengers' carry-on bags in a new security push that includes officers with automatic weapons and bomb-sniffing dogs patrolling platforms and trains, the railroad planned to announce today.
The initiative is a significant shift for Amtrak. Unlike the airlines, it has had relatively little visible increase in security since the 2001 terrorist attacks, a distinction that has enabled it to attract passengers eager to avoid airport hassles.
Amtrak officials insist their new procedures won't hold up the flow of passengers.
Concern about Amtrak security has been mounting since the 2004 bombings of commuter trains in Madrid that killed 191 people. Trains also have been bombed in London, where 52 people were killled in a series of blasts in 2005, most of them on subway trains, and in Mumbai, India, where 200 people were killed in 2006 on commuter trains. Russia also has had several bombings on subway, commuter and long-distance trains.
Amtrak plans to roll out the new "mobile security teams" first on the Northeast Corridor between Washington and Boston, the railroad's most heavily used route. Teams will show up unannounced at stations and set up baggage screening areas.

MUSKEGON, MI – A trial date has been set for Romero Geonee Neal, the 26-year-old Muskegon man charged with trying to rob retired Muskegon County Probate Judge Tom Linck at gunpoint in a church parking lot.
Meanwhile, Neal has already been sent to state prison for violating his probation on an earlier conviction.
Neal is scheduled for a three-day jury trial starting Jan. 23 in Muskegon County 14th Circuit Court on charges of assault with intent to rob while armed, three counts of assault with a dangerous weapon, firearm possession by a felon and possessing a firearm while committing a felony. He is charged as a second-time habitual offender based on a 2011 conviction of larceny from a person.
Neal was on probation for that conviction and for a larceny committed June 13, 2010. Fourteenth Circuit Judge James M. Graves Jr. recently sentenced Neal to prison for between 2 ½ and 10 years for violating probation.
The recent alleged robbery attempt happened around 12:45 a.m. Sept. 21 in the parking lot of St. Michael's Chapel at Sixth Street and Dale Avenue in Muskegon, where Linck was going to attend a prayer vigil.
At Neal's preliminary examination Oct. 3, Linck, 80, testified that a man he identified as Neal approached him and demanded his wallet and money. When the retired judge said he had neither, the man swore, paced back and forth and fired a couple of shots by Linck's feet with a handgun, then fired more shots, Linck testified.
Neal allegedly also allegedly threatened three neighbors who came to help. That's the basis of the three assault with a dangerous weapon charges.
An off-duty Muskegon police officer was at the chapel when the incident occurred and came outside when he heard gunfire. He called 911 and assisted the judge, who was not injured.
Police arriving after the 911 call found and arrested Neal about a block away from the chapel.

But as the first season developed, I became increasingly frustrated with how Birgitte's marriage plays out. Her job takes up a lot of time (because she's the Prime Minister) and Phillip gets lonely and misses her. Very reasonable feelings! But instead of ever having a real conversation addressing his marital concerns - or, perhaps, tabling some of his demands because SHE IS THE PRIME MINISTER AND THAT TAKES A LOT OF WORK PROBABLY - Phillip cheats on Birgitte. Well, first he starts acting like an ass, then he says some foreboding things, and then he cheats on her. (Fun fact: the word 'affair' sounds the same in Danish as in English!)
My eyes almost rolled out of my head when this "plot twist" happened. Like, come on. The show spent several episodes constructing Phillip and Birgitte as a uniquely, surprisingly, refreshingly supportive couple. And now Phillip's behavior is totally predictable. Of course it must really suck to feel abandoned by your partner while her career takes priority (though, let us remember, SHE IS THE PRIME MINISTER OF A WHOLE COUNTRY). But is there no more creative plot device the show's writers could evoke than man-feels-lonely-so-man-cheats-on-woman? I mean, you're writing one of the few political shows on television with a female lead. Do better. (Maybe Shonda should get over there for a consultation.)
Not to mention that the season ends with a whole episode dedicated to the concept that we - and mostly Birgitte - can't have it all. Kasper can't have Katrine because he's hurt her in the past. Katrine can't have her journalistic idealism and also her position at TV1. Phillip can't have his flashy job as CEO of a telecom company because it compromises Birgitte's political career. And Birgitte apparently can't have any friends, a functional family, a loyal husband or a supportive parliamentary government. Ah, feminism.
Seriously, though, I don't quite feel comfortable saying that this show promotes feminist values, or at least what I would consider to be contemporary ("third-wave"? Are we calling it that?) feminist values. Birgitte is professionally successful, but has very little emotional support or affirmation from anyone who is not her employee. It seems that to apply the word 'feminist' to Borgen is to accept a version of feminism that centers the leadership style and success benchmarks of traditionally masculine power structures, as well as to accept that the primary function of feminism in contemporary society is to allow women the opportunity to work at the highest, most alienating, most emotionally destructive level. And I think feminism means more than that. Plus, the show sets up Birgitte's career and her family life in complete tension with one another. We're not exactly observing the radical feminist revolutionary future here.
But of course, it's still totally rad to see a confident, opinionated lady running a country, even in the fictional universe of cable TV. And I super like the show and am going to keep watching it. I hope the second season will take us to a more interesting place in Birgitte's plot line so there can be more nuanced conversations about the complexities of being a powerful woman, because the "she just can't have it all" thing is honestly tired. But also, it's TV, and even great TV feminism (is that a thing? Where is it?) is still a somewhat false representation. So let's just keep binge watching and enjoy listening to incredibly beautiful people speak an incredibly beautiful language while discussing Denmark's relatively low stakes international political agenda!

Kia has big plans for America. The Korean brand that was written off in the 1990s, and is best known for making inexpensive cars with long warranties, isn't planning an assault on the mass market. Kia has bigger plans: compete head on with Lexus, BMW and Mercedes. Say what? Yep. By 2017 Kia promises they will be ready. Rather than leaping right into the market, Kia is dipping their toes into the murky waters of the near-luxury pool. In many ways the near-luxury segment is a harder place to compete. This segment is full of aspiring brands trying to move up (Buick and Cadillac), brands that are floundering (Acura), brands that are treading water (Volvo and Lexus's FWD models ), brands trying to expand down (Mercedes with the CLA) and brands that have no idea what their mission is (Lincoln). Into this smorgasbord lands a sedan that managed to be the most exciting car I have driven this year and the most awkwardly named. Now that I have that spoiler out of the way, let's dive into the Credenza. I mean Cadenza.
Tag: ES350
The ES has been Lexus' best-selling sedan for 15 years yet the front-driver started life as something of a side-show. In 1989 the ES was a thinly veiled Camry, supposedly rushed to market because Lexus dealers couldn't envision launching a brand with one vehicle (the LS 400) and were unwilling to wait for the SC and GS. This explanation makes sense to me and explains why the ES was the only FWD car in a brand created to compete with the Germans. Of course, this odd fit within a full-range RWD luxury brand is exactly why the ES sells. Wonder why Acura's wares never had the sales success of the ES? It's all about the brand baby.
BMW's 3-Series is always the benchmark, always the target, and always on a pedestal. So when GM announced Cadillac would once again "complete head-on" with BMW's money-maker, the world yawned. Then an interesting thing happened, publications started fawning over the ATS, proclaiming the 3-Series has met its match. Could such a thing be true? Even our own Michael Karesh was smitten by the ATS at a launch event. To find out how the ATS matches up with its German rival, Cadillac tossed us the keys to a loaded ATS 3.6 AWD. Can Cadillac beat BMW at their own game? Let's find out.
The Lexus ES has been the best-selling Lexus sedan for decades, outselling every Lexus model except for the RX. While the ES was originally designed as the Japanese luxury brand's entry-level vehicle in America, it is slowly becoming one of Lexus' flagship products. To prove to us that Lexus has what it takes to reign supreme in the FWD luxury class they created in 1989, they flew us up to Oregon to sample the all-new, sixth generation ES 350 and 300h hybrid.
2013 will bring a new version of the Lexus ES, and we've already seen its new mug from photographers in China. Yet even with the new ES in the wings, Lexus is on track to sell 40,000 "lame duck" models, making it the most popular Lexus car and the second most popular Lexus vehicle after the RX350. As a goodbye to the "Lexus Camry," we took one for a road trip from Northern California to Southern California – a sort of farewell to an important but sometimes misunderstood luxury car.
TTAC commentator DougD writes:
Hi Sajeev,
I put the snowtires on Dad's 2007 Kia Rondo yesterday, and right on cue we've got snow today. While we worked we talked about cars, of course. My parents are in their mid 70's, Dad bought the Rondo new and there's a lot to like about it. Upright seating, good ingress for seniors, easy to park in the condo parking spot. It's been reliable and still looks good, so the Rondo's held up well. (Read More…)
As a nameplate, Lexus is now old enough to consume alcohol in all fifty states. Make no mistake, though: the brand Lexus has become is not the brand it was perhaps originally intended to be. Toyota and Nissan each launched with a (mostly) clean-sheet big V8 sedan and a warmed-over home-market showroom filler. For Nissan, the lineup was a short-wheelbase version of the all-new "President", badged Q45, and a long-in-the-tooth Leopard coupe, yclept M30. Toyota introduced its "F1" global flagship as the Lexus LS400. To keep the new LS from being lonely in the showrooms, a quick nose job was done on a JDM faux-hardtop midsizer, and the ES250 was born.
Perhaps the Japanese thought they could win the "D-class" battle against BMW and Mercedes-Benz as easily as they'd destroyed the British motorcycle industry or humiliated the American attempts to build subcompact cars. It didn't quite work out that way. The Q45 badge moved to the rather dismal Nissan Cima before completely fading away. The M30 was a sales catastrophe, to put it mildly. While the current LS460 does about the same annual volume in the United States as the Mercedes-Benz S550, it does so with a base price that is almost $23,000 below that of the Benz.
It was the humblest of the original four offerings from Lexus and Infiniti that would go on to conquer, if not the world, then at least the continent of North America. Today, Lexus is one of the top-volume luxury brands in the market. Its killer Camry-derived duo of ES 350 and RX350 perennially occupy the top of their segments' sales charts, generating over 100,000 sales per year. Lexus is one of the most famous success stories in the industry, but it began with a straight badge-engineering job of a nearly obsolete car.
It's hard to fault the 2010 Lexus ES 350. There is no hint of rattle. The suspension feels as though it would take the worst New England washboard roads with aplomb. The steering is responsive and precise, and the handling crisp at modestly extra-legal speeds on Clifton VA's marvelously twisty, hilly byways, despite 3,600 lbs of mass–almost parsimonious in this age of bloat–although you get the feeling you might begin to push the limits of crisp if you go much faster around here.

Warren, chair of the congressional oversight panel overseeing the Troubled Assets Relief Program, didn't mince words when reacting to the news that unemployment had crossed the 10 percent threshhold for the first time since 1983.
Appearing on MSNBC, she said the unemployment picture was not surprising considering the government's top-down strategy of bailing out financial institutions:
"We rescued at the top and left the bottom to kind of fend for itself, and that's reflected in the unemployment numbers. ... It saved the top of the system. It stabilized it, but not so much for families who are hard hit down on the ground, the real economy."

MAYVILLE - In an effort to streamline local government, several Chautauqua County legislators are pushing to create a commission on government effectiveness.
A resolution to form the commission will be discussed during an Administrative Services Committee meeting Monday in Mayville before it heads to the full-body legislature later this month.
The resolution is being sponsored by legislators Rod Rogers, I-Forestville, George Borrello, R-Irving, Tom Erlandson, D-Frewsburg, and Mark Tarbrake, R-Ellicott.
"It's clear that we need to do more than continue to talk year after year about the need for change," Rogers said of the commission. "As the saying goes, our dreams and desires are only dreams and desires until we take action."
Rogers said if the status-quo were to remain in local government, "the population will continue to decrease and our costs to live here will continue to increase."
The bipartisan push, he said, would establish a "Stan Lundine-style" commission for the county that would join efforts with local villages, towns, cities and other counties. Lundine is the chair of the state's Commission on Local Government Efficiency and Competitiveness.
In the county resolution prefile, legislators alluded to the county's comprehensive plan, Chautauqua 20/20, which calls for cost-effective services.
The comprehensive plan notes that the county should be "a model in New York state for counties, municipalities, and other government entities, educational institutions and non-profit agencies in providing cost-effective services and infrastructure through regionalization, the sharing of resources, collaboration, and elimination of duplication."
Erlandson pointed to the comprehensive plan as "justification for his support," according to a news release from Rogers.
Legislators also pointed to the county's population, which according to the 2010 U.S. Census, has declined by nearly 5,000 residents - a 3.5 percent decline over a decade ago. Lawmakers noted that the median income for county residents is "well below the national and New York state median income levels," according to the news release.
"As a local businessman and member of the legislature's Planning and Economic Development Committee, I understand firsthand the impact of property taxes on our local economy," Borrello said. "One of the most effective ways we can lower property taxes and help create a more supportive business climate is by streamlining government."
Minority Leader Lori Cornell, D-Jamestown, also applauded the bipartisan effort.
"The Chamber of Commerce has rightly identified local government structure as one of the most significant factors contributing to our local tax burden," Cornell said. "We have no time for partisanship on a matter this critical to our county's future."

Imagine that
Volunteers on Oak Harbors Comprehensive Task Force have an interesting vision of the city 25 years from now:
l Families in newer residential neighborhoods will be able to walk from their homes to mom-and-pop grocery stores and small cafes.
l Drivers will no longer have to deal with as many traffic jams on Highway 20 and other major roads when signal lights at intersections are replaced with roundabouts.
l Shoppers will have more choices when the old Copeland Lumber building on the highway is redeveloped into a Target store.
l Developers will plant trees in a large, public area where everyone can enjoy them.
l City limits will have expanded to the south and west to accommodate more homes.
City staff and members of the task force presented these ideas to the public during a workshop Thursday night. Over the last six months, staff members and the task force have been working on potential amendments to the citys Comprehensive Plan, as directed by state law.
The Comprehensive Plan governs the future growth of the city. It contains goals and policy statements, which guide city codes, plans, budgets and actions by city officials.
The easiest way to think about the Comp Plan is that its a vision, City Development Services Director Steve Powers said. Its a vision of the future of Oak Harbor.
Thursday, city staff shared many of the highlights of the task forces recommended amendment with the 20 members of the public who showed up. After the recommendations are finalized, the planning commission will review them, then send them on to the City Council for possible adoption.
Members of the public didnt have a lot to say about the recommendations. A number of people complained about traffic problems on Highway 20 and argued that little else can happen until that it cleared up.
Resident Scott Hornung pressed the group about revitalization of Midway Boulevard, arguing that new commercial development should in-fill this area before it goes elsewhere.
We should first develop areas in Midway Boulevard, he said.
In fact, one of the task forces recommendations is to encourage revitalization of Midway Boulevard by implementing design overlay standards, to include strong unifying features within the public realm, such as street trees along the entire boulevard, as well as characteristics of high quality human scaled buildings and pedestrian-oriented site plans.
Senior Planner Larry Cort said one of the most important decisions the task force made is to expand the citys urban growth area the land on the outskirts of city limits earmarked for annexation by nearly 127 percent of the citys housing needs for the year 2025.
Specifically, the task force recommended to accept requests by the owners of seven properties to include their land in an expanded UGA. In total, the properties zoned low-density residential will have room for 645 homes.
The properties include the large Fakkema farm and a parcel owned by Hillcrest Properties, a corporation with Mayor Patty Cohen as a stockholder.
City staff also led discussion on a couple of issues that the task force hasnt yet come to a clear consensus on.
Cort explained that there are no sights left within the city that are large enough, and properly zoned, to accommodate a large retail store on the scale of The Home Depot or the Wal-Mart and Albertsons development.
One solution, Cort said, is to designate new areas for large-scale development that would not involve redevelopment. The site of the abandoned Copeland Lumber building and another site north of town were two possibilities.
Island County Commissioner Mac McDowell, who was in the audience, cautioned against this idea. He said the city needed to be careful about encroaching on the Navy base and driving small businesses out.
A lot of small businesses would be gobbled up by re-development, he said.
In addition, Cort said the task force has been toying with the idea of allowing commercial uses within residential areas of the UGA. Before World War II, many communities had mom-and-pop stores interspersed between homes. They were small shops that neighbors would walk to and kids would bike to.
Several residents said they liked the idea, but they were concerned about effects on neighboring property values. They said such concerns would be alleviated as long as people know about the possible commercial uses before they purchased nearby property.
In addition, the task force recommended policies that support a tree banking program. Under current rules, developers have to leave 15 percent of trees when an area is cleared for homes. The problem is that many of these trees end up getting blown over because they are no longer protected by other trees.
Under the proposed policy, developers could plant the trees in a city-owned chunk of land instead of keeping them within a development.
Another recommendation regards roundabouts, the circular intersection designs that are said to be more efficient, safer and cheaper than traffic lights. The policy would bring roundabouts to the forefront of future discussions of changes to intersections.

There are still places on this planet where people have not heard about Jesus. One of those places is China. The Chinese government is not friendly for Christians.
There have been some inroads into this communist country recently but more needs to be done. That is why I was happy to read a recent article about bibles for China. It says in part:
"An organization dedicated to providing religious materials to those in need is preparing for a trip to China in October to give thousands of Bibles to those who desperately have prayed for them.
Bibles for China is preparing to give Bibles to the people of rural China, where religious freedom is stifled and not always applicable to the Chinese people.
"We have about 30,000 [Bibles] that our team of four will hand out over a period of four days. It's really an exciting opportunity. When you get into these rural areas, if you find a Bible in these rural villages it was worn out tattered and about four inches thick from use," Barry Werner, CEO of Bibles for China, told Mission Network News.
"They print everything for China in Mandarin Chinese, and they ship those out to 70 distribution points, which are all major cities. We then work with an organization that is able to purchase those Bibles through Amity, get them to the rural distribution point, and then send them out to the very remote rural areas from one of those 70 distribution centers," Werner said.
Werner's group plans on visiting more than 50 churches while in China, all of which are registered with the Chinese government. For Werner, the reaction of those Chinese Christians who have waited for a Bible of their own for so long is what keeps him going back year after year.
"People would grab me and hug me and cry all over my shirt. The emotion that was packed into them receiving a Bible after having prayed for it for years, was unbelievable," Werner said."
This is fantastic. God bless this organization and I pray these Bibles open the hearts and minds of the Chinese to the Truth found in its pages.

NEW PROVIDENCE — Juveniles playing with weapons, including a machete, crossbow and slingshot, in a parking lot prompted a call to the police on March 24.
When police arrived at the parking lot on Springfield Avenue, they found a group of six juveniles with the weapons. Three were from New Providence, one was from Scotch Plains, one was from Westfield and one was from Annandale.
Police confiscated the weapons and the juveniles were turned over to a parent. The group told police they purchased the items earlier in the day at a flea market in Pennsylvania.

haha, the title should be put 'find the pieces'.. lol..
wow, blank chess board ... we can win without playing it. ahhahaha
This is the most subtle problem I have ever seen!
that's certainly different...
I saw a puzzle like this once. It was in a book with witty chess. It said mate in two. But perhaps it should be 2½.
The position just before 'this one' (a blank board) was White king on e1 and white rook on a1. none of them had moved. Black king on b3. When the white player picks up his king and rook (in that order) to castle long black grabs his king to make a move before white has completed his..which is illegal! and the board is now blank.
This game was played at a time when your opponent was in title to force you to make a king-move of his choice if you made an illegal move. Problem solved. White completes his Long Castle. Forces Black to play Ka2 and proceeds to mate with Rd3, and Ra3# after blacks Ka1...
Funky stuff.
technically it's a draw due to insufficient material...
This is the daily puzzle for Monday 18/Feb/13 - it looks as if a mistake was made in the format of the FEN string (one too many quotation marks) which may be why it didn't post correctly...
It's White to move & mate in 2.
{ For those of you who are interested, look at lines 482 to 488 of the page source code ! }
I thought it was the problem of my IE and thinking to install Google Chrome, until I saw the comments ...
Is that a little bit too easy for a daily puzzle?
Someone made a mistake, this is checkers!
Too easy ? - you havn't been here for very long have you ?

where are the pieces??

The puzzle doesn't show up on the daily puzzle page, but it does on the chess.com home page. I'm pretty sure the solution is:

A state Department of Transportation spokesman said yesterday that he misspoke when he told The Jersey Journal that jackhammering at the Tonnelle Circle in Jersey City would be off-limits between the hours of midnight and 7:30 a.m.
What he meant to say for yesterday's story about the $200 million project underway at the Tonnelle Circle was that jackhammering would be suspended between midnight and 4 a.m., Tim Greeley said yesterday.
The story was prompted by residents who complained that they can't get a good night's sleep because of the construction work, which has been taking place at all hours of the night.
Workers are demolishing the old ramp that leads from Routes 1&9 South to the Pulaski Skyway.

Keech, 44, of Pierson, was the driver of a Dodge Durango heading west in the 9600 block of Apple Avenue, between Sullivan and Moorland roads, when she crossed the centerline and struck a semi-truck heading eastbound, Muskegon County Sheriff's Office officials and witnesses said.
The accident occurred shortly after noon on Friday, April 5.
Keech's family was notified of her death shortly after the incident, said Muskegon County Sheriff Dean Roesler, adding that members of her immediate family were present in the vehicle at the time of the crash.
Among witnesses to the crash that closed that portion of Apple Avenue was Rodney Holland, 38, a former EMT, who was traveling about 200 yards behind the Durango when the collision occurred.
"I was right behind the Durango. I could see she had crossed the centerline and saw the semi-truck trying to get off the road, but he just couldn't get out of the way fast enough," Holland said. "I don't know what she was doing to have crossed the centerline."
Roesler said the investigation is ongoing and authorities "may never know" what caused Keech to cross the centerline.
Holland sprang into action after the collision, first checking the driver of the semi-truck, who was getting out of the vehicle through his passenger's side door. Holland said the engine compartment of the Durango burst into flames and he yelled for the semi-truck driver to grab his fire extinguisher.
Holland attempted to put the fire out, but it took two more fire extinguishers from passing semi-truck drivers to finally put out the flames. All three extinguishers were emptied, he said.
Meanwhile, Holland checked on Keech's three passengers – a man and a woman in the backseat and a man in the front seat, next to Keech.
The front seat passenger was "pinned under the dash" because his seat slid forward, Holland said. He was complaining of shoulder pain and had banged up his nose, he said. The backseat passengers had injuries as well.
Keech appeared to have an "obvious broken arm" and other injuries that led to her death, Holland said.
"I took the driver's pulse and she didn't have one," he said. "She was killed on impact, I think."
Everyone in the Durango appeared to be wearing seat belts, Holland said.
Holland said he couldn't have provided the immediate aid without the help of the semi-truck drivers. It was a team effort, he said.
"You do what you can," Holland said.
Additional information about the crash wasn't immediately available.

And I can't roll my R's.
With light and love
i am a classically trained in Flute and I can't whistle. you would think that since i can play the flute i could whistle. nope. :<
touch tongue to nose. My mom can and it's the one talent I would have loved to have had too. I don't know how common it is but on her side of the family many can.
It took me years to learn how to whistle. Once I did within a few years I got braces. I don't know about others, but I couldn't whistle with braces. Once I got them off I never bothered trying again. I probably could do it again if I tried, but I was never very good at it to begin with.

In class, at work or in social situations, one will find cellphones pretty much everywhere. In recent years, most Americans have made a habit of talking and texting whenever they feel like it.
Since the rise of smartphones, however, Americans now do more than that. A wide world of Web-based opportunities is now just a touch of the fingertip and some extra bucks away from nearly half the nation. According to a November 2011 Nielsen poll, 44 percent of Americans own a smartphone.
Daniel Swackhammer Jr., owner of Wireless Zone, Chautauqua Mall's Verizon store, said smartphones assist consumers with the ways they work and play.

Clymer resident Sue Rhodes plans to turn in this LG enV for a phone that doesn't have Internet access. She'll save money on her monthly bill by making the switch.
"We run into people who are heavy-duty road warriors who need a phone to get access to their home computer, connect with remote docs and that kind of thing," he said. "Then we run into people who want their Facebook and their Farmville and their Words With Friends with them at all times. It really depends on the person and the way the equipment fits their needs."
With the Internet at their fingertips, many people began to desire larger screens, creating a need for tablets, such as the iPad. Most tablets do not make calls. However, they can be used for other forms of communication.
"Basically, tablets give people access to the Internet in a larger format than a phone," Swackhammer said. "You can only make a phone so big and still put it in your pocket. It's bigger to see what you're doing. The phones have much of the same capabilities as tablets do, but what you gain with this is a larger screen so you can share what you're doing with other people. If you're showing a presentation as a salesman, you have it right here. If you're showing photographs, you've got them right here. It's a larger version of this without doing the calling."
When it comes to making a smartphone purchase, customers have several options: iPhones, Androids, BlackBerrys and others. However, according to the Nielsen poll, 71 percent of smartphone owners choose iPhone or Android operating systems. Swackhammer doesn't believe either is better than the other. However, the systems have their differences.
"The iPhone operating system is pretty consistent across all platforms - iPads, iTouches and iPods," he said. "Droid is an open architecture. Therefore, each manufacturer can tweak their version of the operating system. Going from an LG Droid to a Motorola Droid, many things are similar, but not everything is the same."
On the surface, smartphones make for immediate expenses with higher monthly bills. However, smartphone owners can use their iPhones or Androids to save a few bucks by using them during their everyday lives. They can pull up electronic coupons at restaurants, for example.
Others, such as Jamestown Community College student Tyler Malkowski, use smartphones to play games or download apps. Malkowski tries out apps regularly, some of which he uses for his film classes, and gets rid of the ones he doesn't find useful.
With so many options at his fingertips, Malkowski was on the fence on whether his iPhone makes his life easier or just more complicated.
Those looking to get the most out of their phones might try out some geocentric apps, which have grown more popular lately. These navigational or place-based apps provide smartphone owners with information on what's around them, helping users find a certain type of restaurant, store or general location. Using a geocentric app, golfers can even determine exactly how far they are away from a hole.
A lot of cellphone consumers, particularly those who opt for simpler models, don't know about those types of apps, according to Swackhammer.
"A lot of people think a phone is just a phone still, but obviously, it can do a lot more than that," he said. "Some people think the Internet is what they get when they buy an advanced smartphone, and they don't need the Internet with them in their hands. What they don't realize is the fact that you also get things like navigation programs; things like applications that know where you are and give you information based on your locations; things that will help you do your work as well as your leisure events."
If 44 percent of Americans have smartphones, then 56 percent do not.
Anneli Johnson, of Jamestown, uses an LG phone that she got for free. She doesn't want to have Internet access on her cellphone.
"I honestly don't want to be that accessible to the Internet that I need it with me everywhere I go," she said.
Sue Rhodes, of Clymer, plans to turn in her LG enV, which provides her with Internet access, for a more traditional cellphone. She'll save some money on her monthly bill by making what she called a "downgrade."
"I live out in the country, so I can't actually get reception to make a phone call," she said. "If I'm in town, I can use the Internet, but I can't out where I live. I got this phone because I liked it, but it's just not practical for where I live."
JCC student Nick Gedz has a "standard slider phone," which he uses for calling and texting, but nothing more, allowing him to save money each month.
The views expressed by Johnson, Rhodes and Gedz aren't uncommon in the Jamestown area.
"We have plenty of people we sell just standard phones to," Swackhammer said. "There certainly are people who do not, for financial reasons or lifestyle reasons, want smartphones."
Johnson wonders how much longer she'll be able to hang onto her anti-smartphone.
"I feel like it will get to the point where I don't have a choice," she said. "When I decided I didn't want the Internet, that narrowed it down to like three phones."
Swackhammer believes Johnson will have nothing to worry about. However, he thinks most people will make the switch to smartphones on their own in time.
"I certainly hope we continue to provide something for everybody's needs, and I believe that most providers will," he said. "I also think that the advances and the things you get by getting a smartphone will draw more people into it."

INGONISH — An effort to find a private operator for the Highlands Links golf course and the Keltic Lodge has ended unsuccessfully, with Parks Canada rejecting the two proposals that were submitted.
© Submitted by Golf Cape Breton
The challenging par-5 15th hole at the Highlands Links course in Ingonish Beach is shown in this undated photo, with Ingonish Island in the distance.
Field unit superintendent Chip Bird wouldn't go into detail about the bids and why they didn't meet the standard set out in the request for proposals for a long-term lease of the properties.
He did say that Parks Canada will continue to operate the course for the 2013 season and will also proceed with another attempt to find a private operator.
The province announced Friday that it will continue to operate the resorts in Ingonish, Liscomb Mills and Digby through the 2013 tourism season.

MOUNT OLIVE — A man was killed in a fire that destroyed a wood-frame home on Flanders-Drakestown road late Wednesday afternoon, authorities said.
Authorities on the scene deferred comment on the blaze to the Morris County Prosecutor's office. As of 7:45 p.m., the prosecutor's office had said an adult male died in the fire, but did not provide any further information.The home stood charred Wednesday afternoon, with a large hole in its roof and much of one side of the structure gutted. Firefighters continued rehab operations into the early evening. Even after the bulk of the fire was put down, smoke continued to waft from the roof.
Police closed down Flanders-Drakestown road between Mount Olive Road and Tinc Road as activity continued at the site. The fire drew a response from first-responder agencies from several neighboring communities, as well as the county sheriff's office and emergency management department.
"Any time we have a fire in Mount Olive, it's a tragedy," said Mayor Rob Greenbaum, who arrived after most of the fire was out.

335 - Chat windows closing when feared/disoriented/dead
What steps will reproduce the problem?
If you get feared, disoriented or die every chat window closes automatically regardless of the options.
I tend to start writing when I know I'll die most of the time. But the window closing and all of the written text disappearing after getting feared or disoriented is kind of annoying as well.
An option like "never close windows at all" would be really nice. Otherwise than that - thanks for the great addon. :)

A drafting and woodwork teacher, Feher spent more than 20 years teaching at Hill-McCloy High School in Montrose. He retired in 1985.
"I have friends who dread going to work, but I enjoy going to work," Frank Feher told The Journal in 1979. "I teach with love and I love to teach."
Feher, of Montrose, died Thursday at Lakeland Medical Center in Florida from complications of a ruptured spleen. He was 81.
"He never knew a bad kid," said his son, Frank Feher. "He never had any trouble with anyone he taught. He loved kids."
Feher began teaching others before he graduated from high school, his son said.
When he was a senior, the superintendent of the Montrose School District told Feher there would be no basketball team because the school didn't have a coach.
Other recent Flint-area deaths:
• Charles R. Adkins, 57, April 11.
• Reuben P. Albright, 72, of Oscoda, formerly of Flushing, April 11.
• Wayne C. Beckley, 82, of Fenton, April 13.
• Theofilis (Ted) A. Beldyga, of Cheasing, April 14.
• Geraldine (Cheryl) A. Buchalski, of Burt, formerly of Flint and Pinconning, April 11.
• Walter J. Gengler, 81, of Flint, April 10.
• Wilmer Davis, 79, April 13.
• Ozellar Fletcher, 78, April 13.
• Michelle Johnson (Jones), 46, of Millington, April 13.
• Dale R. Knowles, 84, of Flint, April 12.
• Corinne R. Millenbach, 81, of Grand Blanc, April 12.
• Bernice Norris, 63, April 13.
• Opal M. Reasor, 92, of Flint, April 13.
• Yvonne T. Rice, 71, of Flint, April 14.
• Helen Seitz, 98, April 11.
• Jean M. Smith, 91, of Columbiaville, April 13.
• Tom Solomon Jr., 98, April 12.
• Bonnie Stanton, 70, of Flint, April 12.
• Albert W. Turner Sr., 59, of Swartz Creek, formerly of Ky., April 14.
• Sandra J. Warren, 72, of Bryon, April 12.
Soon, Feher was leading the team. He stepped up to be the team's coach and averaged about 20 points a game, his son said.
"It's not very often you hear of a senior coaching a basketball team," Feher said. "Not only that, but he was the star player, too."
That was during the 1943-44 season, Feher said. While in high school, Feher also was a member of the football and baseball teams. Years later, he would coach the freshmen football and varsity baseball teams while teaching at Hill-McCloy.
After high school, Feher spent time in Europe, serving during World War II. He also played on a football team while in Europe, Frank Feher said.
When he returned, he married Betty Rock on June 17, 1950.
Soon, he became known as the community handyman.
"He'd lived in Montrose his entire life, and he knew everyone," Frank Feher said. "So when anyone needed help, they knew who to turn to."
He helped anyone who needed anything, and asked only for a thank you in return, Frank Feher said.
Before teaching at the high school, Feher spent seven and a half years as a janitor for the school district, as well as seven and a half years working for Buick.
He also was an assistant fire chief for the volunteer fire department in Montrose and volunteered for the Historical Society.
He was a member of the American Legion Post 367 and the Montrose Masonic Lodge.
A funeral service will be held at 1 p.m. Wednesday at the O'Guinn Family Funeral Home in Montrose. Visitation is from 1 p.m.-9 p.m. Tuesday and 11 a.m. until the time of the service Wednesday.
Contributions may be made to the Montrose Athletic Boosters.
Feher leaves his wife, Betty; children, Frank Feher of Montrose, Sandra Grisham of Saline and Kenneth Feher of Tennessee; six grandchildren; a sister, Ann Hobson of Hubbard Lake; and brother, Ray Feher of Tennessee.

Where I stayed
Santa Fe RV Park
We stayed at Santa Fe RV Park which was just a little north of the Misson Bay Area and ended up being a pretty good location. The day we arrived we hung out at the pool, did laundry, rode our bikes around, and the boys played pool with Gramps. A police helicopter flew by a few times using its loud speaker to give a description of a man they were looking for. They were asking people to call 911 if they saw him and later they flew over saying thanks to everyone for their help. We don't see that too often in Kingston! The boys were also amazed to see a sky writer plane leave an ad for Geiko in the sky above us.
We went to the Pacific Beach area for dinner and ate at a fantastic New Zealand restaurant. After dinner we strolled on the boardwalk by the beach and watched all the surfers in the waves. It didn't take long for the boys to start asking when they could try surfing again. That was certainly on the agenda further up the Californian coast.
We've put a little over 16 000 kms on the truck so far on the trip so we thought it might be a good idea to get another oil change in San Diego since we were going to be here 4 days. After that was done we drove to Old San Diego to take the Old Town Trolley tour to get an overview of the city. We really enjoy doing these tours because you get so much information about the city. It's nice to be able to get a good look at everything and not have to worry about traffic or directions and you can get on and off to spend more time at the places you find interesting. The kids love going on the trolley and Clare cuddled right into Gramps for the entire ride. We got off in Little Italy to have lunch and enjoyed sharing some real Italian pizza. Bruce will have to say he didn't think it could compare to his long time Kingston favourite - Mamma Mia!
We were surprised when our tour guide pointed to a beautifully designed, tall building in the center of downtown that looked like a regular office building but was actually a jail! Aimee had to stop at Kansas City BBQ where the bar scene from Top Gun was filmed and picture Tom Cruise singing You Lost that Loving Feeling in that exact spot! We walked around Old San Diego which is a State Historic Park and looked in the shops and toured La Casa de Estudillo and Seely Stable. In the early 1800's it was the social and political center of San Diego. The house was beautifully furnished and it was so neat to see how some people lived back then. The boys, being boys, lost their minds laughing at the chamber pots in all the bedrooms. They couldn't imagine what it was like back then without all our modern conveniences.
Gran and Gramps encouraged us to let them babysit while we had the chance and sent us out for the evening. We drove to Misson Beach and rode our bikes along the boardwalk on the beach. It was a beautiful night and we stopped at a bar on the beach and enjoyed a drink and watched the sunset. The bar had 2 flow riders (surfing simulators) and we had lots of fun watching people try it out. They had hot tubs to relax in while you waited for your next turn. We had a great night out and once again debated hitting the road just the two of us but couldn't do that to my parents and figured we'd miss the kids after awhile!
We spent the next day at the San Diego Zoo. We were all really excited to see over 800 different species of animals from all over the world. We started our day by getting Gran set up with a new set of wheels. We all thought an electric scooter would be a good idea for her to use since we were going to be doing so much walking. The boys were pretty excited and hoped they'd get their first driving lesson on it. Bruce was just as excited and would run and get it for her whenever we had to leave it somewhere that wasn't accessible. Clare bummed a ride most of the day and thought Gran was her personal chauffer!
Everyone enjoyed a ride on the "skyfari" a gondola that takes you from one side of the zoo to the other. It was quite high up and it was nice having a birds eye view of the whole zoo. Part of the admission cost included a double decker bus tour that gives you an overview of all the different sections of the zoo and animals. The tour was about 40 minutes long and what we learned in that short time period was amazing. The zoo is a botanical garden as well and the trees and flowers were beautiful. The habitats were all well done but we found the zoo much more condensed compared to the Toronto Zoo.
We saw almost all of the zoo and at the orangutan exhibit you could sit in front of a glass wall that the orangutans would come right up to. It was late in the day when we arrived at the exhibit and there wasn't many people around. When the kids sat down 2 orangutans came right over, plopped down and just seemed to be staring right at us. It felt like they were watching us instead of the other way around. It was a really neat experience.
Our favourite exhibit was probably the Mom and 10 month old baby panda. They were so much fun to watch! The baby kept trying to climb on the Mom and she just kept knocking him off. One time while they were in a small tree in their exhibit she knocked him right to the ground! Everyone took a big breath in but he popped right back up and continued to chase after his Mom. The panda keeper said panda's can fall 50ft out of a tree and be unharmed, pretty unbelievable!
We were all tired but had an excellent day at the zoo! We decided to stop at the Wavehouse for a late dinner on the way home so we could show the boys the surf simulators. They thought it was really cool and wished they had their bathing suits along so they could give it a try. Bruce was definitely thinking the same thing! San Diego was a great city and we're so glad we ventured all the way down the coast to see it!

Gloucester County Freeholders will meet Wednesday to vote on the follow matters:
- A resolution opposing rate increases requested by New Jersey American Water Company, which seeks to increase rates by $95.5 million. By adopting the resolution, the freeholder board will urge the Board of Public Utilities to reject the proposed rate increase. According to the county, the rate hike will have a negative impact on ratepayers in 12 of Gloucester County's 24 municipalities.
- The freeholder board must authorize the appointments of former Freeholder Frank DiMarco and Williams Packer to the county's Board of Education of the Special Services School District and Vocational School District. The appointees will replace Leona Mathers and Adam Taliaferro, who stepped down after he was elected to the freeholder board.
- Freeholders will consider the sale of two properties in Harrison Township that the county currently owns, but are no longer needed.
- Freeholder Deputy Director Joe Chila will put up a resolution that forms an exploratory committee to look into digital communication and radio frequency bandwidth interference. The committee will look into the issues related to spending $16 million to upgrade the county's radio frequency to stop the interference.
The Gloucester County Freeholders will meet at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in the Ceremonial Courtroom of the Old Court House in Woodbury.

Two Gay Men Dead After Visiting London Sauna
In the early hours of Saturday morning, three men collapsed in a popular gay London sauna, the Pleasuredrome. One man was pronounced dead at the scene while the other two men were rushed to a nearby hospital, where another man died.
Both men who died were in their 40s and police speculate that their deaths were drug-related. The third man, a 34-year-old, is expected to make a full recovery.
"The management and staff of Pleasuredrome Spa are shocked and deeply saddened by the tragic events of the weekend," sauna managers said in a statement acquired by Gay Star News.
Pleasuredrome is open 24 hours and has a smoke-free and drug-free policy, though the incident follows a police warning that recent substance-related deaths could be related to a contaminated batch of drugs.
Photo: Fifth World Art
If it was GHB, then the location might have paid a small roll. (dehydration). Not to mention being a meeting place where really fun stuff like that occurs?
I don't use any of those fancy man made substances, but I am not going to look down at my nose at them. They died. Their family has to deal with enough without us being pious.
@Fitz: This.
The ad of the sauna features Rogan Richards (a.k.a. Tristan Hamilton).
I've done my share of umm…fun at those kind of places. You have to be responsible about all drugs but most definitely GHB . There's a very fine line between fun and what they got. Of course like Fitz said it's easy to get dehydrated with all those umm… distractions so any drug can be potentially lethal after a certain point.
Regarding the deaths which occur a lot in London on the gay scene because of drugs mainly because of G this is not an isolated incident and I wonder why they have reported it in such a big way when gay men are dropping down dead a lot in clubs and at home after indulging in the taking of narcotics. St Thomas's hospital in Westminster will tell you that as irresponsible gay men overindulge especially at the weekends. This isnt news to anyone on the gay scene but it needs to stop and gay men need to grow up and stop behaving like children at a sweet shop. They died because of themselves. simple as that.
