Background: Font color:
Draco woke up confused. The light had gone out and the room had filled with that empty darkness that he had always connected with Death Eaters. Only this time above him, were a pair of bright green eyes that were, as his eyes adjusted to the darkness, filled with tears.
"Amelia?" He asked as he started to sit up with a bewildered expression plastered to his pale face. "What are you doing here?"
Amelia backed away as he sat up. "It's my... my flat." she started to say when Draco noticed that she was quivering.
"What about your flat?" He asked her even more confused than he had been moments ago.
She put her hands up to her cheeks to brush away the free falling tears that stained her skin. Then spoke very uncomfortably, "It's been ransacked! When I got there everything had been pilfered through and then I had this feeling that I was being watched. I didn't know where else to go." she finished in a defeated tone.
"Wait," Draco told her as he held up his hand. "Let me get this straight. You left here after the funeral and when you arrived at your flat this evening it had been broken into?" He finished watching her tremble in fear as he ran through everything she had just explained. "Did you see anyone?"
"No." She responded simply.
"Did you contact anyone about this?" He gave her an apprehensive look.
"No." She replied again shaking her head this time. "Draco what am I going to do? I can't go back there." She told him hysterically.
Draco stood up and walked over to her and took both of her hands in his. He didn't notice until now how short she actually was and what bothered him is that someone would find her to be a threat."First of all," he squeezed her hands gently, "you need to calm down. You're safe here and you know that."
His eyes watched hers trying to find that calm and understanding Amelia that was hiding so far inside of herself at the moment. When she made eye contact with him, she instantly calmed down.
"But what about my flat?" she asked in a less frantic tone.
"I know just who to contact about that you leave it to me. For now, we should probably get you to bed." As he finished saying this his cheeks automatically turned a pink hue and his eyes widened. "I mean we should probably get you upstairs to your room." He stammered out as quickly as possible.
Amelia nodded as Draco let go of her hands and when he turned to walk towards the stairs, she called out to him. "Thank you Draco."
Her voice was soft and kind, but Draco could still sense the fear laced in the sound of her words.
"Come on." He gestured to her. "I'll go ahead and sleep in my mother's room tonight so if you need me I am right there."
"Oh, no Draco you don't have to do that." Amelia insisted as they walked up the grand stairs. The oil lamps sprung to life as they climbed each step.
He stopped on the landing and turned to her. "I know I don't have to Amelia." He told her firmly, "but I want to."
Amelia nodded and they continued to walk this time down the corridor. When they reached the bedroom door, Draco insisted upon looking over the room before bidding her good night with a small kiss on the cheek. Amelia blushed as she watched the hem of his robe disappear behind the door and she let out a breath that she hadn't realized she'd been holding onto.
As the night went on, Draco lay awake in his mother's room reflecting on what had happened in the past month. So much of his life had changed. The war taught him humility and until he met Amelia he didn't see it that strongly as he did now. 'Amelia' He thought quietly to himself, as he pictured her smiling face and bright green eyes. She could always light up a room even if she was terrified. He was internally grateful that at this moment a wall separated the both of them because he didn't know how much longer he could keep his thoughts and feelings to himself.
Somewhere between his thoughts of Amelia and the quiet darkness he again, drifted off to sleep. He woke with a start when he heard a girl scream. He quickly jumped up and ran to the other room slamming the door against the wall in his haste. He was shocked to see Amelia asleep in the bed.
'It had to have been her.' he told himself. 'It couldn't have been a dream. I know I heard a woman scream.' He walked slowly over to the bed where Amelia lay soundlessly sleeping. 'It couldn't have been.' he thought. She looked like an angel so peaceful and content under the duvet that rose and fell with her calm breathing. As he took a step closer he admired her small frame, but as he brought his other foot up to stand next to his other one, he tripped.
In the few seconds that it took him to fall many things happened. Amelia heard him grunt as he started to fall forwards and she screamed, Draco landed on top of her, and a small pop echoed around them announcing Gibby the house elf frying pan in hand ready to knock out any intruder within her tiny arms reach.
"Master Malfoy!" Gibby yelled. "Whats you doing in here? Who have you brought home with you?" She questioned him in a mothering fashion.
Draco looked flabbergasted at the position that he had found himself in. Here he was laying on top of her with his head on her stomach. Amelia's eyes were wide with shock.
"I-I-I." he spluttered but nothing coherent left his mouth.
"Ms. Amelia is that you?" Gibby questioned lowering her hands and the pan down and dropping it to the floor with a thud.
Draco and Amelia scrambled apart quickly. Amelia pulled the covers up to her neck and Draco shuffled to the other side of the bed as the curious elf watched the pair of them. Their faces, both a red rosy hue, matched perfectly together.
"Hi Gibby." Amelia called out to her with a small wave when she was satisfied that she was completely covered up.
"Whats you doing here? I didn't know that you stayed." Gibby asked her honestly.
"I didn't stay Gibby..."Amelia began before Draco cut her off.
"Look Gibby, " he said crawling off the end of the bed and standing up to straighten his pajamas. "Amelia is here because something happened at her flat. I wanted to wait until morning to do this, but Gibby I want you to go to her flat and hide yourself. I want you to wait and see who comes around for a couple of days. Do you understand?"
Gibby bowed low and her ears bounced precariously on her large head. "Yes, Master Malfoy."
Just as she was about to snap her fingers, Draco cut in. "Gibby," he started, "don't let anyone see you."
"Got it." She announced to the both of them before she disappeared.
"Oh I hope she'll be alright." Amelia whimpered staring at the spot where Gibby was standing and at the lone frying pan on the floor.
Draco glanced back at Amelia, "She'll be alright." He assured her. "You saw the way she was ready to take our heads off with that bleeding pan."
They both smiled.
"Besides Amelia, I won't let anything bad happen to you."
"Draco, I..." she started to say when he began to walk over to the edge of the bed and sit down.
He sighed heavily as if his response was going to take a lot of effort. "Don't." he told her as their eyes pierced one another. "I want to be here with you."
Amelia leaned over and placed her head on his shoulder. "I know you do, but I am afraid Draco."
"Of what?" he asked her with a quizzical look on his face.
"Of getting hurt." She simply replied as she lifted her head from his shoulder looking him square in his steel colored eyes.
He mulled over his response in his mind before he finally uttered, "Then would it surprise you if I said I felt the same way?"
Amelia was stunned. How could he think that she would hurt her? Could he, Malfoy, the boy she knew from school that liked to pick on her and torment her, be for real? "What's changed?" she asked him pointedly.
"What hasn't?" He challenged her back his one eyebrow raised.
She gave him a hardened look. "No really Draco. What has changed?"
"Look I have done a lot of things in my short life." He scoffed before continuing, "and a lot of them for which I am not very proud of. But because of what I've done and the things that I have seen have changed me. I know what it is like to be broken beyond repair. I know what it is like to have everything and always be second best. I know what it is like to lose both parents and not have a say. Frankly Amelia I don't want to be the Draco Malfoy everyone thinks about when they hear my name. I want to be Draco Malfoy the one who changed. I want to live in a happy world that isn't torn between right and wrong or light and dark. I don't want people to die for stupid causes that have taken me years to fully understand."
Amelia was surprised. "I didn't know you felt that way."
"No one has ever asked." he told her as she lifted her hand to his cheek and tracing a small circle with her thumb.
"So Draco, I guess the only thing left is not hurting one another."
He watched her eyes for any sign of explanation, but quickly closed them as she planted a kiss on his lips. Their kissing grew more and more passionate as dawn approached and after a lengthy snogging session they could both be found wrapped up in one another's arms asleep on the bed. What they didn't see was a set of cold eyes gazing at them through the window.

That lighting has worked very well,nice & gentle over the whole scene.
Just one teeny thing...I want to see the end of the watch chain,I know it's a minor thing but everything else is just about 'whole' except for the chain.That was the very first thing that came into my mind when I looked at this so...had to be said
Nice extra badge too,well done.
Peter Pan is late arriving !!!
I would have curled the chain just in front of the watch or used it on top of that nice box & draped the chain over it...you need an old packet of fags or an old metal match striker box or something similar just to stand it on I think to give it a tad more height maybe ?...dunno,props are difficult enough to find at the best of times !!

CHICAGO — The first Mayor Daley wanted to put an airport in the lake in the 1960s. Don't do it in the lake, everyone said.
The second Mayor Daley wants to take an airport out of the lake in the 1990s. It's not fair to us, say the newspapers, business leaders and politicians. You just can't win.

Community groups with bright ideas for their area have the chance to bid for a share of funding.
A pot of £8,000 is being made available by Oakham Town Council for those in the town who have initiatives that will benefit the people of the town.
Local charities, groups and sports clubs can apply for the funding.
Their projects must have a specific purpose or provide facilities or activities for the young, elderly, disabled, the arts or improve the environment.
Organisations that have their applications shortlisted will be invited to make a presentation to thecouncil.
The council will then select its favourite pitches to receive a share of the funding.
Oakham town councillor Alf Dewis believes it is a great opportunity for groups to come up with initiatives they would not otherwise be able to consider.
He said: "It's an ideal chance for groups to unite members of the community through a project.
"Groups are now finding it harder to get funding so it's a great opportunity.
"It can be for developments that groups may want to start, sports clubs hosting events, activities for the young or elderly.
"Any initiative that will really benefit the people of Oakham.
"We've had quite a few applications in, so we'll just have to see what meets the criteria and is a worthwhile initiative."
Organisations planning a project that fits the criteria can submit an application by March 31.
Guidelines on how to apply are available to download on Oakham Town Council's website at www.oakhamtowncouncil.gov.uk or by contacting town clerk Richard White on 01572 723627.

D. Robert Hakala
Juneau resident Donald Robert "Bob" Hakala died April 17, 2001, of cancer in his home in Juneau.
He was born May 25, 1921, in Ironwood, Mich., to John and Nannie Hakala. He attended Ironwood schools and learned to fly before joining the Army Air Corp in 1943. He earned flight officer wings and was severely injured in a flying accident at Fort Bragg, N.C. After his recovery he attended Michigan State University, earning a master's degree in forestry. While at MSU he met and married Jean Macklem.
His career as a forester and naturalist included six years at Isle Royale National Park where he initiated interpretive services (visitor education and information). He later served as curator and new parks planner for the National Parks Service, developing exhibits for some 20 national parks. He came to Alaska in 1962 as regional chief of interpretive services and his accomplishments included development of the Marine Highway interpretive program.
He was active in 4-H as a youth and throughout his career he worked with youth camps and nature trails. He and Jean started a 4-H forestry club and were involved in the Switzer Creek project, now the Richard Marriot Memorial Trail.
He received many professional awards for his work. The Forest Service established a regional award named in his honor. He was a member of the Society of American Foresters, the National Forestry Honorary Society and Xi Sigma Pi.
His family wrote that he will be remembered for his gentle humor, his patience and respect for children and his music and songs. He was an avid recylcer and collector of old tools. Sharing his love for nature was central to his life.
Hakala was preceded in death by his parents and his brother George. He is survived by his wife Jean and son Ron of Juneau, daughters Jannie Choquette (and Thomas) of Seattle, Mary Ord (and Peter) of Juneau, grandchildren Jesse, Janae and Jolie Choquette of Seattle, Jordan Hakala and Nathan, Annika and Bekka Ord of Juneau; sisters Nan Helen Saari of Wisconsin, June Vaugen and Ilona Folk of Washington and brothers John B. and Merril J. of Fairbanks and Edward of Anchorage.
A memorial service will be held 6:30 p.m. Friday at the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center. In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to Hospice of Juneau, 3200 Hospital Dr. 99801.

A MARRIED father aged 56 broke into a frail 89-year-old woman's bungalow - then threw her to the floor and raped her.
Anthony Borrowdale has been jailed for 13-and-a-half years for the horrifying attack in which he smashed a bedroom window, climbed inside, and turned off the lights so the victim could not identify him.
The terrified pensioner cried and shouted for help as Borrowdale subjected her to the sex attack, but nobody heard her cries, Sheffield Crown Court heard.
The vulnerable pensioner suffers a multitude of health problems including Parkinson's Disease.
The court heard Borrowdale - who has a wife and daughter - had gone off the rails after his marriage broke down, and he was seen acting bizarrely in his neighbourhood.
He had knocked on his windows at passing schoolchildren, urinated out of his bedroom window, and burped out of his letterbox.
He was arrested for flashing at schoolgirls at a bus stop 18 months ago, but the case was dropped due to lack of evidence.
Speaking after Borrowdale was jailed for rape, Det Con Chris Horsley of Barnsley CID said: "It was a horrific crime. Even his own defence barrister acknowledged he is a dangerous man.
"We believe the lady was specifically targeted. He targeted her because of her vulnerability."
Rachael Harrison, prosecuting, said the 89-year-old woman was housebound and communicated by writing things down. On the day of the attack, on May 31, she had been visited by carers who left her watching television. The incident is believed to have happened at around 11.10pm.
Afterwards the distressed victim knocked on her neighbour's door at midnight, but was unable to communicate what had happened to her.
She eventually managed to activate her personal alarm at 12.43am, and call centre staff contacted the emergency services.
Borrowdale, of Copeland Road, Wombwell, Barnsley, was arrested two days later after forensic and fingerprint evidence was recovered from the scene.
He admitted rape.
The court heard he had numerous previous convictions dating back to 1973 for dishonesty and violent offences, but none for sexual matters.
Ian Brook, defending, said it was a 'heinous' offence and Borrowdale understood the gravity of the crime and had expressed a degree of remorse.
But Borrowdale denied specifically targeting his victim because of her age or vulnerability.
Judge Jeremy Baker QC told Borrowdale: "You knew at the least by the time you entered her property that she was a highly vulnerable individual because of her age and physical infirmities.
"Those who are subject to such an ordeal are unlikely to forget it and the psychological damage will be profound and long-lasting."
After the hearing it emerged Borrowdale had been in contact with a local mental health team but it was not deemed necessary to offer him treatment.
Neighbours regarded him as a 'nuisance' and he had dumped rubbish and a mattress in their gardens.
One resident said: "We reported him to the council and police within two months of him moving here.
"If they had listened to us this probably wouldn't have happened."

Hi ,
THanks for posting your experience... It is amazing that you were able to be calm and focussed afterwards... I really do believe it would help me with my anxiety...I guess what was holding me back was the idea that someone was right into my subconscience...
When you had the live sessions - did you ever have your sessions recored? I was always curious if they taped what you say when you were hypnotized.

1936 Chevrolet
Without a doubt you're looking at one of the most interesting vintage trucks around that will be the hit of any car show. It also happens to be far more drivable than any of its contemporaries. This restored 1936 Chevrolet pickup has great paint, outstanding wood in the bed, and the inline-six has a modern five-speed attached for enhanced usability.
By 1936, pickup trucks had evolved to be more than just passenger cars with a bed, but that didn't mean this Chevy skipped a trip to the styling department. With a handsome V-shaped grille, flowing fenders, and plenty of chrome, it looks far more expensive than it is – that was as true in 1936 as it is today. This fully restored example really strikes a nice balance between hot rod style upgrades and the fundamentals that give an 80+ year-old vehicle well-earned dignity. It starts with the black paint. It's a symbol of the simplicity of a good pickup, but the modern glossy and shine also highlights the curvaceous restored body. The new oak wood in the bed is a great distinction against the glossy black. Plus, the chrome is in good order as well, with an optional front bumper and wonderfully ornate grille screen.
The interior follows the exterior's example that provides a sleek black appearance that mixes the best of the new and old worlds. It starts with the vinyl bench seat that has stitching to give individual comfort to the driver and passenger, so you know it's vastly more comfortable than anything that came out of the 30s. Your left hand goes on the three-spoke steering wheel, and your right one rest comfortably on the shifter – a truly nice hot rod setup. But as you peek through the wheel, you see the cool original-style AC gauges. Now if you look closer, there's also an added voltage meter and tach on either side of the tilt steering column.
Under the hood is a Chevy six-cylinder pickup motor. Not only did the company build its backbone of reliability on the inline-six, but also this pickup offers extra power of a much larger 261 cubic-inch unit from what is believed to be a 1961 truck. Added to this is Tremec TKO 600 five-speed manual transmission. This pricy upgrade gives the torquey motor a much better defined powerband that will get up better from stoplights AND make highway speeds very manageable. So with the modern tires on the Corvette-style rally wheels, this pickup not only looks great, but also it is genuinely a versatile vintage machine.
You looked through all the photos. You've seen how tidy this pickup is, even in the undercarriage. It's a true classic that has great power upgrades for usability and fun, but it never loses its 1930s bedrock spirit. It even has the owner's manual for you to show off when people ask for more info. This is a truly interesting and nicely restored Chevy pickup that will get people talking because of its high quality and gorgeous execution. If you're ready to be the toast of the show give us a call today!

How does a Michigan college education stack up? New scorecard compares state colleges to national peers
Joe Tobianski | AnnArbor.com
Want to know how a Michigan public college compares to schools in California or Texas?
It just got a whole lot easier to evaluate the essential performance of Michigan's 15 public colleges against their peers in the nation's 49 other states.
The non-profit Business Leaders for Michigan this week released a scorecard outlining how Michigan's 15 public universities compete with their peers in a swath of areas from state funding to enrollment to administrative spending to student performance.
According to the group's analysis, Michigan ranked 37th in per-student support for its public colleges. Michigan in 2009-10 awarded $5,683 per full-time student enrolled in a state college. The state ranked 37th in U.S. in higher education spending.
Meanwhile, it ranked fifth in the nation for the number of degrees produced by public universities. At 62,598 degrees, Michigan trailed behind California, Florida, Texas and New York. The state ranked fourth nationally in producing critical skill degrees, which include science, technology, engineering and math fields.
The scorecard also allows users to isolate how individual universities compare with their peers.
The University of Michigan, for example, is compared with other "very high research" volume public schools.
According to the database, U-M receives $8,357 in state funding per student, compared to the national average of $9,870 per student at other very high-volume research public universities.
Thirteen of Michigan's 15 public universities are below their peer average for state support.
The school spends $20,410 in instructional spending per student and $3,935 in administrative spending per student, compared to average per-student instructional spending of $12,112 and administrative spending of $2,486 at peer universities.
U-M's 6-year graduation is 90 percent, compared to an average graduation rate of 68 percent at peer schools.
The cost of attendance at U-M is $25,000 per year, versus an average cost of $21,275 among peers.
However the average U-M net cost—or amount a student pays after factoring in grants and scholarships— is $15,129 per student, compared to an average net cost of $13,366 per year among peer schools.
Ten of Michigan's 15 public colleges have a higher in-state net price than their peers.

Hi everyone! I wrote this article mainly to highlight the service of the new website, and used some U-M stats as examples. If I were to have included everything, I would have basically just regurgitated the report. That said, I hear your concerns about not including information relating to EMU and I will keep these comments in mind for future articles. Thanks for all the suggestions and keeping me sharp.
Fri, Feb 15, 2013 : 2:35 p.m.
annarbor.com has an article about universities in the state of Michigan. It provides a clear link to said report. Said link will let anyone pick any of the universities in the report to see all the stats. Total time to access this information is about 6 seconds. But the University of Michigan is summarized by the news outlet in Ann Arbor in the main article. What a shocking idea that those people reading annarbor.com might just be most interested in the school that is actually located in Ann Arbor... Is there no end to this thing called common sense?
Thu, Feb 14, 2013 : 11:11 p.m.
A pure UofM promotional article what one would expect from an Ann Arbor paper.
Thu, Feb 14, 2013 : 10:46 p.m.
I would think it would be useful to include EMU and MSU in this article. Of cours it appears, rather then just write the information in the article itself, you have just chosen to let your readers do the research. . . .
Steve Krause
Fri, Feb 15, 2013 : 2:24 p.m.
I agree completely. When I first read this article and saw nothing other than U of M stuff, I figured that perhaps there just wasn't any detail about EMU or MSU or wherever available in the report. Then I simply clicked on the link. I can understand the emphasis on "the university" since this is after all an Ann Arbor first publication and the U of M is the biggest player in town. But given that EMU is less than 10 miles away from U of M and annarbor.com claims to cover things having to do with Ypsilanti too, you would think that the reporter would have at least peeked at the scorecard for EMU. That strikes me as pretty lazy journalism, frankly.

So I'm guessing the only University in the Ann Arbor-Ypsi area that matters is UofM. Any information about other universities like Eastern or even Concordia? Not even Michigan State, UofM's state perennial state rival is mentioned. Some statewide focus would be welcome.
Fri, Feb 15, 2013 : 1:10 p.m.
To put salt in the wound you opened, a recent Wall Street Journal poll rated Madison, WI #2 in the nation for well-run city governments, in addition to having a big airport. Ann Arbor wasn't on the list. I know how much UM and Ann Arbor love polls to polish their crown, so I thought I'd add that to the list.
Fri, Feb 15, 2013 : 1:41 a.m.
I also was shocked to see an Ann Arbor publication talking about an institution in Ann Arbor...who would have guessed that a school, located in Ann Arbor, would be mentioned by a publication in Ann Arbor.

Are you serious? AA is the center of the universe.

From looking at the website, has anyone found compelling figures I didn't highlight? Feel free to share them in the comments.

Two weeks ago, I put the question To Coupon or Not to Coupon to you. Hopefully, that got your attention. This week, I'm going to take that further.
The average family that coupons as I teach them how saves roughly $450 a month. That comes to $5,400 a year.
Imagine what you could do with that money — put it toward your mortgage, pay down your bills, help pay for your child's education, fund your retirement … The possibilities are endless.

Crazy as a (censored) rat: The Internet Oakland Raider fan.November 19, 2009
Fans of good teams probably gather and talk about how awesome this player or that coach is. They probably have a full blown e-Celebration after every victory. They talk about it all week long and get themselves psyched for the next game. Typical fan stuff. Simple.
But the Oakland Raider fan's existence is much more complicated. Especially on the internet where people are dropping in from all over the world. Oh yeah, Raiders fans are everywhere. He or she must not only consider the state of the team and what to do about it, but also the intrigue and mystery that exists within the Raider Organization.
This can be a mildly entertaining, but also consciousness-expanding exercise. Entertaining because...well, maybe addictive is the better word here. Consciousness-expanding for sure, though because nothing is simple in Raiderland.
For example, in Broncoland, maybe they argue Orton vs. Simms or Orton vs. Cutler to amuse themselves. But not here. Nope. It's got to be a full on 3 way battle...Russell, Gradkowski, Frye. Nothing else will do. A 2-sided argument is simply not compelling enough.
Likewise, in Chargerland, maybe they debate Schottenheimer vs. Turner. But here in Raiderland, you can take your pick between Shell, Shanahan, Gruden, Kiffin, Cable, etc. or maybe even go all the way back to the Archbishop of Football, Mr. Madden.
But all of that is really the simple part. You hang around a Raider forum long enough, and pretty soon you're chasing the white rabbit...Russell to Cable to Al Davis and back to Russell. Who's fault is it this year? Like chasing the white rabbit down the hole trying to find the elusive end to the mystery.
"He certainly could be playing better," says one group.
"He'd be playing better if he was coached better," says another.
"Yeah, well, he didn't get drafted to play like this, did he?" says a third group.
"How is he supposed to play when that one guy insists THOSE receivers be the starters?" chimes in the first group again.
Then the fifth group, now incensed, throws in their lot. "Well THOSE receivers can't very well catch the ball when it's bouncing in the dirt, now can they?"
And finally, inevitably, from somewhere else, "Well if that O-Line would block for a change instead of just tripping people and false starting...oh yeah, and WTH is with that guy from Arkansas?"
Around and around it goes. You follow it from place to place, finding yourself on one side of the argument, then another, then a third, then back where you started. Maybe you never waver from your position. Maybe you change like the weather. But no matter, what you're caught up in it, and IT doesn't let go very easily.
All roads lead to Al. Or do they? And, oh yeah, says who?
And all of this on top of the maddening spectacle that awaits the Raider fan on the football field every Sunday.
Careful Raider fans. If you find yourself mumbling out loud about who the Raiders should draft next year, begin wearing an eye patch full time, or even start frothing at the mouth when the subject of the Raiders comes up, there's still time to become a 49er or Chargers fan and save what's left of your sanity. But no, you won't do that. You'd rather go stark, raving mad, wouldn't you?

More Sunshine At 'Voice': New Managing Editor
At long last, the Village Voice has found itself a managing editor. She's Deborah Kolben, most recently of the Sun. Kolben follows the defection of Sun spokesperson Maggie Shnayerson, which suggests that either there's something so wrong at New York's mostly unread wacky conservative paper (as opposed to the wacky, but read, Journal) that even Cooper Square seems idyllic by comparison or that after dealing with Alicia Colon on a regular basis, Mara Altman gives no cause for concern. Full memo after the jump.
Deborah Kolben Joins the Village Voice as Managing Editor
New York, NY (February 26, 2007) The Village Voice is pleased to announce that Deborah Kolben will join the newspaper as managing editor this April.
Most recently, Kolben was the city editor of the New York Sun. Prior to that, she was the education reporter for the Sun as well as a reporter for the New York Daily News and The Brooklyn Papers. She has written for the Jerusalem Report, the Guardian and the Financial Times.
I grew up in New York reading the Voice and I'm looking forward to being a part of a newspaper that plays such a vital role for so many in New York and elsewhere, Kolben said.
Kolben is the winner of two National Newspaper Association awards for investigative reporting and has been honored for her feature writing.
Deborah Kolben is a talented and creative editor whose dedication to news and narrative made her indispensable to the New York Sun's distinguished local coverage, said David Blum, editor-in-chief of the Village Voice. I'm thrilled to welcome her to the Voice.
A Brooklyn resident and a native New Yorker, Kolben is a graduate of both the University of Michigan and Johns Hopkins University.

Welcome to OC Weekly's Final Pho. Sixteen pho shops chosen from the more than 100 in the county; four critics who know what the pho makes a good bowl of Vietnamese noodle soup. The chosen 16 will face off in each of our brackets, two by two. The next match-up has Shuji revisiting the upscale branch of his bracket.
For this round, two new-school pho specialists duke it out with variations on pho with filet mignon. When your boss, date or in-laws from out of town tap you for good, real-deal Vietnamese food because you're the local expert, it would behoove you to take them to a place where they'll be suitably impressed.
Yet you still want a proper Little Saigon experience and to eat food that's not dumbed-down for non-Vietnamese palates. Can you do that without going to a white-linen-tablecloth restaurant where the specialty is a $28 Chilean sea bass entrée and not pho? Yes, you can, pho-natics, and this is where you take them!
I first wrote about Quan Hop five years ago, when it was brand-new and brought a much-needed style injection to the Little Saigon pho shop staus quo, and the food has only gotten better. How many pho shops look like they hired an architect or design firm to style the interior? At that time? None. Now, they're competing with Thang Long, which cribbed the same fashion-forward aesthetic that appeals to a younger, more Americanized and presumably more affluent audience. These two are the only pho specialists in Little Saigon playing in the glam league–hence today's matchup.
At these new-school joints, you can pay more than $8 for a bowl of pho, compared to the $2.99 pho bo happy-hour special at Pho Thanh Lich, but it's not an apples-to-apples comparison. See the beautiful pile of thinly shaved raw filet mignon in the photo above? Looks something like a mise en place for shabu-shabu, doesn't it? The "onside" in Pho Hop Tai Onside means you get well-done flank steak, tendon and meatballs in the soup, but the raw beef shavings are on the side, with their own cup of hot broth in which to steep the filet mignon, like meat tea.
The raw filet has the raw-meat mineral tang you also find in carpaccio, which releases into that side cup of broth. If you embrace your inner carnivore, pour that side cup into your bowl. Otherwise, pick out the filet, drained now of much of that raw animal funk. It's so thinly sliced and butter-soft it's almost like beef baby food. If you're inclined to order pho tai, which includes just the rare beef tenderloin and none of the nasty bits of tendon or tripe, Quan Hop does it with a flair and ceremony you won't find elsewhere.
Pho Thang Long is actually one of two restaurants located in the same strip mall. This one is the pho specialist, while its twin three doors down, Thang Long Restaurant, specializes in the rice dishes called com. Oddly enough, both menus look nearly interchangeable, and pho is served at both. Confusing? You bet. If you're sitting in the orange dining room, you're in the pho shop.
Thang Long offers a more traditional menu, with many options on the cuts of beef you can load into your bowl. As such, I tried the one with everything, plus raw filet mignon. The broth, deep-brown and delicious to the eye, tasted one-note and lacked the deep beef essence or the clarity of Quan Hop's.
Next point: the meat. Both shops use high-quality tenderloin, and both cook up tender and delicious. If you like yours with less of the minerality of raw beef, you might enjoy Thang Long's better.
But the flank steak at Thang Long? Completely undercooked and rubbery. It's more of a choking hazard than edible food. I'm sorry, Thang Long. You've never let me down that badly before, and it was probably a one-time fluke, but there's no room for trip-ups in the Weekly's Final Pho.
Chin up, Thang Long, because the later it gets the better you look. Since you're open until 3 a.m. every day, you're still my No. 1 late-night pho buddy.

According to this morning's post on Rabbi Daniel Eidensohn's Daas Torah blog, "Seminary Scandal: Clarifying Rav Aharon Feldman's role" (8/10/14) Rabbi Aharon Feldman writes:
Although I signed on the shtar beyrurin (arbitration agreement) as the official to'en (legal advocate for a party), I was never appointed by anyone to represent him nor did I ever intend to supply you with substantiation of any claims for the simple reason that I did not have this information. My role in this affair was merely to serve as a liason between the Chicago Beis Din and Torah Umesorah who asked me to do this.
I even asked Rav Shafran, the Rosh Bes Din, before the hearing of his Beis Din to be excused because I had no information to add and the first question I would be asked would be, "Who appointed you as a toen?" But Rav Shafran asked me to come nevertheless. Out of respect for his request I came and sat for a while.
When the first question of the counsel for defendant was exactly as I had predicted, Rav [Menachem Mendel] Shafran's reply was that the counsel was correct but that we did not need a to'en since the defendant had already confessed to the charges and the trial was dealing with the damages the defendant was liable to and the culpability of the principals. When I asked permission from Rav Shafran to leave after I sat and listened to the testimony of two people, Rav Shafran—nor anyone else—did not ask me to stay to supply any evidence because everyone knew and I had made it clear that I had none. Especially there was no purpose for me to stay since Rav Shafran had conceded that I was not an empowered to'en.
This is a very strange message and even a stranger legal process. R. Feldman says he is a to'en but concedes no one appointed him. An ad hoc rabbinical court like the Israeli Beis Din (IBD) has no standing to try a claim for damages without a plaintiff advancing those claims in that particular court. By R. Feldman's own admission, nobody appointed him, and hence there was no plaintiff.
Rabbi Feldman also says, "My role in this affair was merely to serve as a liason between the Chicago Beis Din and Torah Umesorah who asked me to do this." Liaison is a vague word which implies interacting but does not necessarily imply any power beyond being authorized to send messages. However, Torah Umesorah (TU) (the umbrella group for many ultra-orthodox day schools) insists it has no dog in this fight. Rabbi David Nojowitz, TU's National Director of Torah Umesorah stated this in writing:
Torah Umesorah never retained any Beis Din in Israel regarding any seminary. We have no jurisdiction in Israel, no do we have any opinion as to which seminary in Israel girls should or should not attend.
Thus we have the strangest of phenomena, a victims' representative who admits he is not delegated to represent them. Moreover, we have someone he insists he is a liaison for Torah Umesora (TU) even after TU issued a letter that disavows any role whatsoever in this matter.
Rabbi Feldman refers to a signed shtar berurin (binding arbitration agreement authorizing the IBD to judge a matter). The signatures of the defendants are Meisels and four administrators from his seminaries. The plaintiff signature is by R. Feldman with a notation that he is an apitropos, a guardian, but the signature line does not indicate for who. Nowhere are there signatures by any victim or by the Chicago Beis Din.
P.S., Rabbi Eidensohn's blog has been launching attacks attacking the Chicago Beis Din (CBD) with rising frequency. This morning's batch included, "Seminary Scandal: RICO claim – Yerachmiel Lopin of Frum Follies view & my rebuttal." In it, he takes a comment I submitted in response to a question he directed to me about whether I found the RICO complaint in the lawsuit plausible. He turned it into a post (as is fully his right), inserting his critique between my numbered paragraphs.
I disagree with his critique. I also wish he had let the reader get through the entire argument since some of his criticisms of the earlier paragraphs are addressed in subsequent paragraphs. I also wish I had anticipated it becoming a post. Because I thought it was a comment inside an internal argument among pretty rabbinically knowledgeable readers, I used some short hand jargon and did not translate or explicate some of my comments.
If you decide to read that post, I suggest reading it through without the lengthy critique annotations and then returning to read his critique.
On the other hand, i do appreciate his preface where he treated me as an otherwise credible blogger, notwithstanding the gulf that separates us on this case. He wrote,
Mr. Lopin has been the most active blogger dealing with this scandal and has been the source of many important leaks from the Chicago Beis Din and opponents of the Israeli Beis Din. We have been in contact for a number of years and I generally agree with his analysis and concern for establishing the truth as well as his genuine concern for the victims of abuse.
It is hard to complain about one's rhetorical lashing when it was proceeded with such a generous drum roll.

UConn sophomore Morgan Tuck to have season-ending surgery
Published 3:31 pm, Saturday, January 25, 2014
STORRS >> Two and a half months after undergoing surgery on her troublesome right knee, UConn forward Morgan Tuck reluctantly pulled the plug on her sophomore season.
Tuck, who missed eight games after having a scope done on her right knee on Nov. 12, believed she was going to be fine after returning to the court in the middle of December. But after dealing with a painful bone bruise over the last two and a half weeks which was not responding to treatment, Tuck made the decision to undergo season-ending surgery.
"That surgery didn't fix the problem, it just kind of cleaned it up," Tuck said. "So this surgery is supposed to fix the problem of the cartilage missing. It is really difficult. I missed a lot of the season so far but I am going to be missing the most important part of the season, so that (stinks)."
Tuck, whose final numbers this season will be 7.5 points and 2.4 rebounds per game in eight contests, said the issue is in the part of her knee without cartilage — the area where she got the bone bruise. She will undergo a procedure where a piece of cartilage from a non-weight bearing part of her knee will be inserted into the area where she doesn't have cartilage. She said doctors considered doing this surgery back in November, but with a six- to nine-month recovery period, she chose to roll the dice that a simple scope would allow her to play this season.
More Information
SOUTH FLORIDA at No. 1 UCONN
• When: Sunday, noon
• Where: XL Center, Hartford
• Records: South Florida 10-8 (5-2 AAC); UConn 20-0 (7-0)
• TV: CBS Sports Network
• Radio: WELI-960; WTIC-1080
• Dominating the Sunshine State: UConn will look to continue its dominance against Florida teams. The Huskies have won their last 41 games against teams from the Sunshine State, including 12-0 against South Florida. The last time UConn lost to a Florida team came on Feb. 14, 1993, when Miami posted a 69-51 victory.
• Climbing the charts: Matching her season high with 21 points in Wednesday's game against Memphis, junior Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis is in position to move by some of UConn's all-time greats on the career scoring list. She needs four points to pass Sue Bird, and 14 points will move her ahead of Leigh Curl, Jamelle Elliott and Carla Berube into 25th on the list.
• New-look Bulls: After being led by the sharp-shooting Smith sisters the last few seasons, the South Florida squad isn't as reliant on the 3-point shot. The Bulls are making two fewer 3s per game than they did a season ago and made just one in their last game against Cincinnati.
• International flavor for USF: Veteran USF coach Jose Fernandez always has an intriguing roster makeup with plenty of foreign players, and this year is no different. Senior Inga Orekhova hails from Ukraine, Ivana Vuletic is a junior-college transfer from Sweden and freshmen Ariadna Pujol and Laura Marcos Canedo are from Spain.

"I felt like if I did the real surgery, the scope could have worked and I missed the season for no reason," Tuck said. "I talked to my parents a lot, coaches, doctors, and tried to get the pros and cons. I feel like I need to fix the problem instead of trying to delay it.
"There is no guarantee with any surgery, but I am pretty confident that after this I will be good to go. I never planned on redshirting and I don't want to redshirt just because I want to be able to leave with my class that I came in with. But things happen for a reason and I am going to try to make the most of it."
Now UConn has to wait until the season is over to apply for a medical hardship waiver.
With the Huskies playing 31 regular-season games — one more than they normally play — and with one game in the conference tournament counting toward the formula for determining redshirt eligibility, Tuck would meet the criteria for a fifth season of eligibility.
Still, it is up to the NCAA to grant her the additional season, which UConn coach Geno Auriemma admits is not a 100 percent proposition.
"Those decisions are made at the end of the season; there is no rhyme or reason to it," Auriemma said. "I have seen kids denied it that you would think it is an automatic, so I don't know. Once you play, it is kind of out of your hands. If you never play, that is different, that is easy, but once you play, and you play the number of games that Morgan has played...we will go through the process and see what happens."
Junior guard Brianna Banks will also miss Sunday's game against South Florida (noon, CBS Sports Network), putting UConn back to seven healthy scholarship players.
Banks rolled her left ankle during a shooting drill last week and tried to practice and play through it. But after playing three minutes in Wednesday's win over Memphis, she decided to shut it down.
"I still played on it, but the swelling never went down, so now it is about 10 days later and it still hasn't gone down and it still kind of hurts," Banks said. "I was struggling during shootaround (on Wednesday) a little bit and I said, 'I am going to try to play.' I tried and Rosie (trainer Rosemary Ragle) said just sit it out. The swelling is going down a little bit, but they are still concerned about this one area of my ankle that continues to swell."

Wednesday, 19 April 2017 | pns | BALANGIR | in Bhubaneswar
Even as the leopard, which had sneaked into Kurli village and injured two persons on Monday, was finally caught, locals are unhappy that forest officials took 12 long hours to take hold of the animal as Balangir had no necessary equipment and manpower to tackle such a situation.
Though forest officials swung into action immediately, yet they didn't succeed in catching the leopard. The wild animal was grabbed after 12 hours only when a wildlife expert team was brought in from Bhawanipatna.
"Had Balangir forest division been equipped with tranquiliser and expert teams, the leopard could have been caught early without harming people, locals pointed out.
Another important aspect which needs serious attention is how to control the curious mob. The tiger might not have attacked Kantabanji Forest Range Officer and another person, if panicked villagers didn't throw stones at the cow-shed where the leopard was hiding.
Two important points haunt people's mind are lack of water and prey forcing wild animals to come to human habitations. The water bodies of three metre width or 10 feet depth created by the Forest department in jungles are dried up in summer. Hence, the depth of water bodies should be increased, demanded locals.
High temperature is another reason that makes wildlife restless in the jungle.
Meanwhile, the leopard was taken to Harishankar and released in deep Gandhmrdan Reserve forest on Tuesday.
Bhawanipatna RCCF Suresh Panth, Balangir DFO Rashmi Ranjan Naik and others conducted the operation.

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 3 - Advanced)
Topic: Happy (07/12/07)
TITLE: I Choose Joy
By Debbie Lassiter
I have learned that happiness depends on happenings. Happenings are those events, occurrences, incidents, and so on that come to pass with or without your participation. These are all things that are outside of you. An event may or may not be planned. An occurrence simply occurs. An incident may yield a negative or positive result. I don't' know about you but life is too short for my peace, my solace and my state of mind to depend on such temporary or unpredictable situations. I need something more. I need assurance that whatever is bringing a smile to my face cannot be altered by changes in my surroundings. I need joy.
Joy is that inner resolve that is championed and sustained by a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Going through the storms and challenges of life I find a great deal of satisfaction in knowing that joy in my life is constant. Whether I am having a mountain top experience or a devastating walk through the valley I know that I can have joy. My walk with Christ is not based on how I feel, it is based on fact. The fact is that my Lord changes not. I know that He has plans for me and I know that whatever I face He has gone before me.
I challenge you to enjoy being happy on your way to living with joy!
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost
(Romans 14:17 - The Holy Bible, King James Version)

In meeting the requirements for a baccalaureate degree, a student is expected to complete the course and hour requirements as outlined in the catalog in effect at the time he or she first enrolls at Texas A&M. The course offerings listed below are those of the 2017-2018 Catalog.
Undergraduate Catalog
The curriculum is generally composed of three topical areas which are (1) core courses composed of humanities, visual and performing arts, international and cultural diversity, and social sciences, (2) basic science and mathematics, and (3) engineering science and design. The core courses are intended to broaden a student's education and to provide training in oral and written communication skills. In addition, they ensure an awareness of our cultural heritage and contemporary human situation. The basic science and mathematics courses provide the necessary foundation for the engineering science courses. The latter start at the sophomore year with topics common to many fields of engineering and continue in the last two years with sequences in aerodynamics, structures and materials, propulsion, and dynamics and control. These provide a strong fundamental basis for advanced study and specialization, while technical electives offer a concentration of study in fields of special interest. Design philosophy and practice are developed throughout the curriculum so as to relate analysis to aerospace engineering design; and the design of aerospace system components is particularly emphasized in the junior- and senior-level courses. A senior-level two-semester design sequence, involving specific goals, objectives, and constraints, integrates analysis and design tools and requires students working in small teams to design, build, test, and even fly an aerospace system such as an aircraft, rocket, spacecraft or rotorcraft. Application of modern engineering and computational tools is required and emphasized in all courses.
The department is pleased to offer a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering with Honors degree option. This option was proposed by our students and implemented for our students. Very few programs across the country offer this type of experience within Aerospace Engineering. You will be provided with the opportunity to enhance your learning experience through one-on-one research with a faculty mentor, introduction to advanced aerospace theories, and much more.

Developer CI Games released a new trailer for Sniper Ghost Warrior 3, focussing on the relationship shared between two brothers, and the tale of revenge that drives one of them.
From the press release:
Having been raised on a ranch at the foot of the Colorado Rockies, Jon and his younger brother, Robert, were always best friends and also their own greatest rivals. Their family always considered military service the highest form of patriotism, so it was no surprise that both of them enlisted as soon as they were able to.
But while Jon has been shaped into a resolutely "follow the book" type of Marine, Robert quickly rose through the ranks of the US Navy–despite using sometimes using unorthodox methods–and became more rebellious and skeptical of authority along the way. Robert deeply loves his older brother, but also believes that an old-school way of thinking in warfare will inevitably leave Jon behind.
The question that remains is who captured Jon's brother, Robert, and did he want to be captured?
Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 is set to release on April 26 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

Electrical engineers design and test equipment for communications, electrical manufacturing, navigation, construction, broadcasting, power generation, computers, automobiles and aircraft. Often grouped with electronics engineers, beginning electrical engineers need a bachelor's degree in electrical or electronics engineering, and many engineers also have a master's degree or a state license. The top salaries of electrical engineers exceed $10,000 per month.
Top Salary
The top 10 percent of electrical engineers earn a monthly salary of $10,972 or more, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is equivalent to an annual full-time salary of $131,660, or an hourly wage of $63.30. Salaries in the range of $11,000 per month or more usually go to engineers with at least 10 years experience, according to ElectricalEngineerSalary.com. By way of comparison, the average monthly income for 154,250 electrical engineers nationwide was $7,433 in 2011, according to the bureau survey.
Top-Paying Industry
Chemical product and preparation manufacturing was the highest-paying industry for electrical engineers in 2011, the bureau reported. The average electrical engineer in this industry earned approximately $11,683 per month, or $140,190 per year.
Top-Paying District and State
The District of Columbia had higher pay for electrical engineers than any state in the 2011 government survey. The 530 electrical engineers working in D.C. earned an average monthly income of $8,718. California's 20,620 engineers earned an average monthly pay of $8,597, the highest of any state.
Metropolitan and Nonmetropolitan Regions
The top-paying city for electrical engineers as of 2011 was Wilmington, North Carolina, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The 80 electrical engineers in that city averaged $9,931per month. The top-paying non-city area was the government's category called "other North Carolina nonmetropolitan area." This region had 120 electrical engineers with average pay of $10,472 per month.
Other Salary Factors
According to ElectricalEngineeringSalaries.com, an electrical engineer with extra responsibilities, long work hours or travel requirements often earns higher pay. In addition, electrical engineers with a master's degree or professional license improve their attractiveness to employers and may qualify for higher wages. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average worker with a master's degree in any field earns approximately $900 more per month than one with a bachelor's degree.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics expects a 7 percent increase in employment for electrical engineers between 2010 and 2020, lower than for most occupations. Job growth will be less vigorous because of the decline in manufacturing, a major employer of electrical engineers. However, new positions will appear in engineering services, wireless telecommunications, design of computer systems and research and development. Jobs in research and development usually require a graduate degree.

20-year Mystery Unsolved
On New Year�s Day 1988, John Francis Lango, 17, left his Pottsville home about midnight.
He never returned.
Twenty years later, Lango�s disappearance remains unsolved, although the investigation is still continuing, Pottsville police said last week.
�This is still an ongoing and active investigation,� Pottsville police Capt. Ronald J. Moser said. �Detective (Glenn) Dove is assigned to the case, and he is in contact with numerous missing persons organizations and has contact with family members of John Lango.�
There are not many details available about the circumstances surrounding Lango�s disappearance, according to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
A press release from the agency said Lango, born Feb. 5, 1970, was wearing blue jeans, a gray jacket and sneakers when he left his home. Blue-eyed and red-haired, Lango was 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds. He also had a burn scar on his right upper arm.
Lango, who would be 37, is classified as �endangered missing,� by the NCMEC

It's good that John got some publicity after all this time, but I wish the article provided more information about his disappearance. I mean, is there evidence that he ran away? What are the circumstances? It was New Year's, perhaps he was intoxicated? Those details would be useful.

This article seems to indicate foul play:
Someone can help solve 1988 case of missing teen
Email to a friendPrinter-friendly
A 17-year-old boy or girl should not just vanish.
John F. Lango, then a Pottsville Area High School student, walked out of his home about midnight on New Year's Day 1988 and has not been seen since, at least not by anyone who's talking.
Law enforcement has followed leads. Lango's family has provided DNA samples. Nothing has come of these efforts.
Some people might think that, given the fact that this boy who went missing is now a man three years shy of 40, if he is still alive, that it doesn't matter if this case is ever solved.
On the contrary, it is more critical than ever that this case be resolved.
If John Lango met with foul play Jan. 1, 1988, or sometime thereafter, that means there are people out there who need to be brought to justice. If he is alive, we need to know that so we need not worry about justice going undone.
So much time has passed and many leads have grown cold. However, someone out there either knows or knew what happened to John Lango and, if that person, or persons, are still living, they must talk now while they still can.

Though well no... yes they should say, it's like so many other missing, I've seen some cases in which they acted as if foul play was involved and once the person is found they start talking about suicide notes they had written.

Very few details are available in this case. It would be interesting to foind out:
1.) Where John was going?
2.) Any actions or activities leading up to his leaving home near Midnight on New Years Day?
3.) Had John been drinking? Previously at a party on New Years Eve?
4.) Any witnesses or leads in the investigation?

Bumping up for John.
The picture of him is his senior picture from the 1988 yearbook. There are also pictures of him in the other yearbooks.

More info?
Hey all, so I know this is quite delayed and I'm not even from the Pennsylvania area, but I had family who lived out there. Pottsville seems like a tiny town, I'm sure everybody knows everybody but let's rewind 26 years ago. Hard to believe that I was born in 1988 and am inquiring about this even now. I am simply interested in this case.
People go missing all the time, and I've always found these cases to be extremely interesting. Too bad I didn't go into this field of forensics or solving cases like these. Did John leave directly at midnight via car? Did he just run away while he was intoxicated? Was he depressed about something? There has to be more information about this case. Should I resort to seeking out his old classmates? Ayyy just may need to do that
I came across John's picture last year and I always wondered whatever happened to him exactly, does anybody know if he has been found deceased by any chance? It's unfortunate, but for some reason, I think we deserve some closure here regardless how long it's been. So if anybody knows any information, please let me know!

He was featured in the first Runaway train vid with Aundria Bowman. Some brilliant & very dedicated WS members managed to track it down somehow for Aundria's birth mother - it's linked in Aundria's thread which is the only reason I knew where to find it.
This is the version I saw first over 20 years ago in Australia. Eventually they pulled it & re-released it with Australian cases, unfortunately most had already been identified as victims of Ivan Milat & their were complaints that they were labelling kids who had left involuntarily as runaways.
With hindsight, it's hard to argue John & Aundria weren't incorrectly labelled voluntary runaways too.
John is at 1.06.

Why is there not more information? Is it known how many relatives he had? How many are still living?

There is a public Facebook page claiming to be by John's brother Tim. It states that there are very little updates on the case, but Tim says that there was chaos in the Lango home that night because John and his friend David had been drinking. The police came to arrest David, who was "flipping out." John said, "I am out of here!" Tim followed John down the street, and a car picked up John. Tim does not remember anything about the car itself.
That was the last Tim ever saw of John. (As this is a public page, I hope this is OK to post.)

Hey all,
I wanted to know if there appears to be a resemblance to the John Doe found in 1990 in Virginia, link to facial reconstruction below. Note that the lower jaw bone was not found. I can see a resemblance through the nose and eyes but wanted to run it by others.

John and a friend had been drinking that night. There was an altercation at our house involving John's friend. John walked down the street to the corner and a car was waiting for him. I do not remember the make and model. I was only 10yrs old.

Your morning adorable: Bird receives a new toy and can't contain his excitement
We've seen cute birds -- oh boy, have we ever -- but we don't think we've ever seen a bird with a sunnier, more delightful disposition than Marnie, an Indian ringneck with a heart of gold.
Marnie "has quite a collection of stuffed rabbits but always enjoys a new one," his owner, YouTube user chesawoo, explains. (Other videos show the expansion of Marnie's stuffed-animal collection to include a teddy bear and his reaction to meeting another stuffed rabbit. Each video is more precious than the next, and viewing them in a single sitting is just about guaranteed to make you reevaluate your entire worldview and decide to say, "Cute," "Gimme a kiss!" and "Wheeeee!" more often.)
Indian ringnecks, a type of rose-ringed parakeet, are known for their talking ability and skill at mimicry. (But then, you probably could have guessed that.)
Chesawoo, please tell us where we can send fan mail and stuffed-animal gifts! We are enchanted.

After all of her years on television, Betty White finally has something no other woman has — the record for the longest career in the medium.
The "Hot in Cleveland" star, 91, will make the 2014 "Guinness Book of World Records." The new category recognizes her unbelievable 74 years in the business, which began in radio in 1939.
Brit Bruce Forsyth holds the male title also with his 74 years in the industry.
White has been steadily employed in television on such shows as "Life With Elizabeth," "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "The Golden Girls." She has won five Emmy Awards, including one for hosting "Saturday Night Live" in 2010.
White's recent senior-citizen candid camera series "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" was dropped by NBC, but "Hot in Cleveland" has been renewed for a fifth season by TV Land and if White is still with us next year, Guinness will have to update her title.

A renewed effort to leave an inflatable golf dome standing year-round in South Toledo received no new support from a City Council committee yesterday - a little over two years since an identical request was voted down.
Greg Fish, owner of the South Toledo Golf Course, 3915 Heatherdowns Blvd., is seeking council approval to expand his permit for the temporary dome from six months to 12 months - the same request voted down by council in November, 2002.
Council's zoning and planning committee agreed to forward the request to the full council without recommendation. It comes up for a vote March 8.
District 2 Councilman Rob Ludeman said there appeared to be no support for the expansion of the permit, despite the owner's concerns about a decline in the golf business.
"I don't think that a lot has changed here, but I do have a real concern about the future of that land," Mr. Ludeman said.
Mr. Fish said he needs the space to provide a practice range for his customers during the golf season, and to support his golf retail business.
"Our business is in jeopardy. I'm trying to save it," he said.
Neighbors said the dome is out of place in a residential area.
"How does a six-story dome differ from a six-story brick building?" asked neighbor Jeanne Arnos, who lives on Timberlawn Road. "It makes a mockery of our zoning laws."
Mr. Fish in 1994 received a permit to put the dome up in November and take it down in April. He said setting up and taking down the dome costs $20,000 and is damaging to the dome.
Also at the zoning and planning committee meeting, a proposal to add new apartments to the Inverwest development south of Dorr Street near the Inverness Club drew strong opposition from neighbors.
Developer Herb Fultz's original proposal for 240 units at 1301 and 1302 Linden Lane was rejected by the Toledo Plan Commission as too dense. Since then, the proposed plan has been scaled back to 180 units.
Steven Herwat, executive director of the Toledo Plan Commission, said the new number is allowed under a community-use plan that was approved in 1981. The developer is seeking rezoning from duplex residential to multidwelling residential.
Neighbors worried that the units don't have the amenities to qualify as upscale housing, and will bring down property values, while causing traffic congestion.
The proposal was forwarded without recommendation to the full council.
In other action, the committee voted 6-0 to recommend approval of:
●A special use permit for a convenience store at 30 South St. Clair St. in the newly developed St. Clair Village.
●Rezoning from limited industrial to downtown commercial for the Berdan Building, 1 South Erie St., and adjacent parcels, that would allow for commercial and residential development.
●A special use permit for a convenience store at 242-252 Fearing Blvd.
