BMW 3 used six-cylinder engines are now added for sale to luxury car owners courtesy of the Preowned Engines company. The parts division listed online now includes these BMW 3 assemblies.
Battle Creek, MI (PRWEB) June 25, 2014
The series 3 luxury vehicles that are marketed by the BMW company in North America are part of the cars that are being supported for replacement motors at the http://preownedengines.com company this year. The luxury parts inventory for consumers to purchase from now includes BMW 3 used six-cylinder engines for sale.
The motors now available include the newer 3.0 assemblies and older engines that are harder to find in some second hand shops. The compatibility for the 3 series motors includes the sedan, Gran Tourismo, Touring and Active Hybrid editions sold in the U.S.
"Our company supports direct sales to consumers at a price point that rivals junkyards and our quality control program guarantees consumer satisfaction," said a PreownedEngines.com source.
The inventory of used BMW 3 engines has been built up over the past 24 months due to different arrangements with national and regional distributors. The various partners now contributing to the overall luxury inventory have grown to new levels to support immediate demand for BMW and other luxury brands of engines.
"The warranty program that is always a part of customer shipments ensures that miles per gallon, OEM parts and other quality is preserved to help with flawless installations," said the source.
The Preowned Engines company has redesigned the features that are available to the public on the website this year. One new feature that has been received in a positive manner is the quotation system delivering automatic prices for any in stock American or foreign brand engine for sale.

The patient he was treating in the Yale University-affiliated community health clinic was so much like him that Dr. Garth Graham thought he could almost be looking in a mirror. The man was African American, about his age, and lived near Graham's own home in New Haven, Conn.
But in contrast to Graham's good health, the man was coughing, feverish, and losing weight for no apparent reason. When Graham suggested that he take an HIV test, the patient got up and walked out of the treatment room without saying a word.
It would be nearly a year before Graham saw his patient again. By the time he did, in the year 2000, the man had been diagnosed with full-blown AIDS.
"We had so many similar characteristics," said Graham, who has directed the Office of Minority Health (OMH) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services since 2003 "He had two children, a family, and friends - and he died a difficult death. I couldn't help wondering what might have happened if he had taken that HIV test? By then, we already had medications that would have helped him, but his refusal to be tested meant he did not get the treatment he needed. His case reminded me that we are most vulnerable to HIV when we refuse to admit we might be at risk."
As a practicing physician and the director of OMH, Graham sees that vulnerability
every day in his work to improve health outcomes for minority communities in
the United States.
In the 26th year of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, African Americans and Latinos are increasingly at risk for HIV infection. Although both groups together make up less than 30 percent of the U.S. population, they make up nearly 70 percent of all new HIV/AIDS cases.
These numbers spur Graham and his staff to emphasize HIV testing and treatment for World AIDS Day, which is observed each Dec. 1.
World AIDS Day is a chance for all of us to look back and remember the lives lost to AIDS," Graham says. "But it is also a time to look ahead to the lives we can save through prevention, testing, and treatment."
"HIV is preventable and treatable," Graham notes. "But to protect yourself and those you love, you have to know whether or not you are already living with HIV - and that means taking the test. Fortunately, finding an HIV testing location has never been easier - now you can go online (www.hivtest.org) and find one near your home or workplace."
Graham says, "HIV/AIDS is still a deadly threat - especially for African Americans and Latinos. My patient might be alive today if he had been able to admit he could be at risk for HIV and taken the test. People need to understand that ignorance is not bliss when it comes to HIV. Ignorance is a killer."
Most of all, Graham says, "People need to understand the risks, take the test, and protect their futures. My patient was young and had his whole life ahead of him - but on this World AIDS Day, he isn't here for his children or his family. The loss of all his potential was a tragedy."

The Salvation Army was a well-oiled machine Thursday morning as volunteers filled containers with hot meals, decorated tables and welcomed visitors for their annual Thanksgiving feast.
While this is only the second Thanksgiving dinner in Ottumwa for Capts. Oliver and Tabitha Knuth, the local Salvation Army has been providing the dinner since 1999. Other Ottumwa organizations provided Thanksgiving Day meals before then, including RSVP, the YMCA and St. Mary's.
Last year, the Salvation Army served around 600 meals on Thanksgiving Day, 380 of which were through deliveries alone, Oliver Knuth said.
"We've already exceeded that this morning," Knuth said before the meal began.
By 11 a.m., volunteers had already delivered 435 meals.
"Pam Ward volunteers and helps set up the routes," Knuth said. "She said that about 56 had called in just this morning."
Justin Belzer and his fiancee, Dana Ward, were two of the many volunteers helping to deliver hot meals around town Thursday morning. Belzer said he has helped out since he met her five years ago.
"He drives. I navigate," Ward laughed.
Salvation Army staff make the majority of the food, with turkey provided by Hy-Vee and vegetables provided by Fareway.
"It's amazing how everything comes together," Knuth said. "I'm sure I couldn't do it by myself or without our staff and volunteers. I wouldn't even want to try."
Knuth said the holiday is a great way for volunteers to give back to and help the community.
"For us, it's a way to help those in need," Knuth said. "Obviously there's a need in the community. With the economy the way it is, until it starts to improve, I see our numbers going up and up."
The free Thanksgiving dinner is open to anyone and everyone, Knuth said.
"It's great for coming down and enjoying company and fellowship," he said.
Toby Mitchell, the Ottumwa Community School District's truant officer, has been volunteering at Salvation Army for the past 11 years.
"My parents are missionaries in Paraguay, so that's how I started doing Thanksgiving here," Mitchell said.
She said the Salvation Army's dinner has become much more streamlined and organized over the years.
"They have an assembly line system and more and more volunteers every year to help with deliveries," she said.
This year, the Salvation Army even expanded its deliveries to Eldon, Agency and Eddyville.
And people donated more than 400 desserts for the deliveries, including pies, cakes, cookies and brownies, as well as 100 for those who made the trip to the center.
This was Rachel Morgan's first year volunteering at the center.
"I heard about it on the radio yesterday and thought it would be something nice to do," Morgan, an Indian Hills student from Fairfield, said. "There are a lot of people we don't know about who don't have family or who can't afford a nice meal. It's good to know someone is thinking about them on a day like today."
Morgan said she definitely plans to continue volunteering during next year's holiday season since the Salvation Army staff and volunteers threw her right into the mix.
"It was great and the people here are very welcoming," she said.
Another volunteer said the number of volunteers who turn out for the effort is rewarding for the city of Ottumwa. She said it would be nice if people showed this sense of giving all year long.
"I think it's wonderful," said Carolyn Staub, a volunteer. "There are a lot of people alone on Thanksgiving."

Mention the word "colonoscopy" in a group of people and you can literally see the cringing begin – even though it's a safe bet that many haven't even experienced the procedure. What's important to know is that the life-saving benefits of this screening test far outweigh any short-term unpleasantries (real or imagined).
Colorectal cancer is the second most-common cancer found in both men and women. It is a leading cause of cancer deaths, but is highly treatable when caught early and even preventable with the removal of precancerous polyps, or small growths. Due to low screening rates, however, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that less than half of colorectal cancers are found early.
The colon, or large bowel, is the last section of your digestive system or gastrointestinal tract. It is a hollow tube about five feet long that starts at the small intestine and ends at the rectum and anus. Its purpose is to store unabsorbed food waste, water and other fluids until that waste can be eliminated from the body. A colonoscopy is used to visually examine your entire colon and rectum for abnormalities.
"The colon is one of the few places in the body where you can see a pre-cancer lesion and remove it," says Daniel Peshka, DO, one of four gastroenterologists practicing at Holland Hospital. "A colonoscopy makes colon cancer over 90 percent preventable.
Doctors urge all men and women to follow the American Cancer Society's screening guidelines, which include having a colonoscopy every 10 years beginning at age 50 (or earlier if you have a family history of colorectal cancer). Here's what you can expect:
Before the procedure
Your colon must be clear of stool and fluids prior to the colonoscopy for the physician to get a clear view of the colon and rectal lining. The "prep" requires that you take a laxative and are on a clear liquid diet the entire day before the exam. You should also stop taking supplements, including iron, since this mineral can change the color of your colon lining. This prep period is often considered the worst part of the entire procedure.
On the examination day, you will be asked to fast during the four to six hours prior to the procedure.
After check-in, you will be taken to the procedure area in the Endoscopy Center, where a nurse will prepare you for the colonoscopy. To minimize discomfort and any anxiety, a mild sedative and/or pain medication is administered through an IV. Holland Hospital also offers music and aromatherapy to help you relax.
Most patients are asleep during the procedure. You will lie on your left side as the doctor inserts the colonoscope – a long, flexible tube with a fiber-optic light and a tiny video camera at its tip – into your rectum. Air is used to inflate the colon to help provide a better visualization of your colon. If polyps are found, the doctor will remove them at once. The entire procedure takes about a half hour.
Following the colonoscopy, you will be taken to a recovery area where a nurse will continue to check your vital signs. If you feel bloated, passing gas will make you feel more comfortable. You should not work or drive for the remainder of the day, and can resume a regular diet. Complications are rare, but see your doctor if you have persistent abdominal pain, bleeding or a fever.
If no abnormalities are found, your next colonoscopy is usually recommended in 10 years. If polyps were removed – depending on their size and number – a more frequent screening schedule will be followed.
Appointments for endoscopy procedures are usually arranged through your primary care doctor or gastroenterologist. For general questions, call Holland Hospital Endoscopy at (616) 394-3422.

- Health Notes
Antioxidants and Free RadicalsAntioxidants and Free RadicalsThis nutrient has been used in connection with the following health goals
- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
This supplement has been used in connection with the following health conditions:
Antioxidants are nutrients that help minimize free-radical damage to the body. Free radicals are highly reactive compounds that are created in the body during normal metabolic functions or introduced from the environment, such as by exposure to pollution and other toxins. Inherently unstable, free radicals contain "extra" energy which they try to reduce by reacting with certain chemicals in the body, which interferes with the cells' ability to function normally. Antioxidants combat free radicals in several ways: they may reduce the energy of the free radical, stop the free radical from forming in the first place, or interrupt an oxidizing chain reaction to minimize the damage caused by free radicals.
Consuming a wide variety of antioxidant enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and herbs may be the best way to provide the body with the most complete protection against free-radical damage.
- The body produces several antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, that neutralize many types of free radicals. Supplements of these enzymes are available for oral administration. However, their absorption is probably minimal at best. Supplementing with the "building blocks" the body requires to make superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase may be more effective. These building block nutrients include the minerals manganese, zinc, and copper for superoxide dismutase and selenium for glutathione peroxidase.
- In addition to enzymes, many vitamins and minerals act as antioxidants in their own right, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, lutein, lycopene, vitamin B2, coenzyme Q10, and cysteine (an amino acid). Herbs, such as bilberry, turmeric (curcumin), grape seed or pine bark extracts, and ginkgo can also provide powerful antioxidant protection for the body.
- An increasing number of antioxidant-rich "superfoods" are available, including mangosteen, kombucha, acai, pomegranate, goji berry, and chia seed.
Free radicals are believed to play a role in more than sixty different health conditions, including the aging process, cancer, and atherosclerosis.1 Reducing exposure to free radicals and increasing intake of antioxidant nutrients has the potential to reduce the risk of free radical-related health problems.
Oxygen, although essential to life, is the source of the potentially damaging free radicals. Free radicals are also found in the environment. Environmental sources of free radicals include exposure to ionizing radiation (from industry, sun exposure, cosmic rays, and medical X-rays), ozone and nitrous oxide (primarily from automobile exhaust), heavy metals (such as mercury, cadmium, and lead), cigarette smoke (both active and passive), alcohol, unsaturated fat, and other chemicals and compounds from food, water, and air.

On his final attempt at the Centennial League Track Meet, Shawnee Heights javelin thrower Iain Trimble threw the javelin 229' 7" to set a new national standard in the event.
The throw was originally measured three inches further, but a re-measure using a steel leader arrived at the final distance.
Trimble's throw paced Shawnee Heights to the Centennial League boys championship. Emporia won the girls championship.
Trimble had previously signed a National Letter of Intent to throw the javelin at the University of Kansas. He was the Kansas Relays champion.

Isle of Wight Foodbank Warehouse manager Zoe Hawkes, administration assistant Rebekah Gibson, volunteers Jackie and Paula Carrington, Joni Rhodes from the Tomato Stall, volunteer Diane Milmore.
LUXURY stock from an Isle of Wight company has been donated to boost the Foodbank's efforts to help those in need.
The Arreton-based Tomato Stall has donated surplus stock that has been discontinued due to changes in packaging or updated recipes.
Hannah King, manager of the Somerton-based Isle of Wight Foodbank, said: "We are delighted to be able to offer something extra to those coming to the Foodbank.
"The products are perfectly edible and have months left on their shelf life, so it makes perfect sense to see them put to good use."
A Tomato Stall spokesman said: "As a sustainable business, The Tomato Stall wanted to find a way to ensure this produce was not wasted and contacted the Foodbank to see if non-essential items would be considered.
"This week the Foodbank received a donation of 'luxury' items from the Tomato Stall including Isle of Wight chilli ketchup and salsa."

Matthew that's actually quite funny. I'm teetotal an I don't own pets. I work and earn quite a bit and considered quite successful in my social circles.AsFor the pit bull, it doesn't matter what dog you own it's always the owners that turn them in I feral beasts. P.s where is my contradictory remarks? Or have you found a big word and needed to use it to make you seem clever?

Its like feeding time at the zoo on groundhog day.An article about foodbank, and the usual suspects post their regular tirades.Like turning up at the monkey house with a bucked of bananas. As soon as the monkeys see it, its "screech, screech screech".

Mark, your posting in reply to Stephen, I personally was not talking about such people. I am well aware of these people and I see then rehearsing at Shanklin Theatre putting heart and sole into hat the are doing, some very poor in the 'communications locker'. I am talking of those who think life owes them a living and will take take take for as long as it is given. I expect someone going to a Food Bank to walk or catch the bus with a pass, not jam the goodies into a back pack and jump onto a thumping great motor bike. Push bike, as I started with, yes. That motor bike would have provided a goodly number of meals.Sorry, there is too much of a hand out state here.

Why buy food when the foodbank provides, better to spend the money you get on ****, booze and sky. Quoting Asda..."every little help" ching ching. Joke. I will never give "the scroungers" (as Mike calls them) money/food. Go get a job and provide you lazy gits and don't you dare talk to me about disabilities. Again more and more people are registered disabled and to quote Tesco "gives you extra" lol

I would add.I bought my first house in 1960 and just down the road to me were a couple known as "The Scroungers". Never done a days work in their lives. Lived on handouts.Get the story?

1995 power mirrors stopped working.
Both mirrors only go down, not up, left, or right. #3 fuse in fuse box is ok. They just stopped working. Is just being able to go down some type of default when say the switch fails?
Clymer and Chiltons repair manuals are useless.
It is probably the switch. That is usually what happens when it fails. Not that they only move down, but that they only move in certain directions when it goes bad.

Thanks Pikey and RayVoy for the advice. I took the switch apart and although the contacts and circuit board look ok [no heat damage from a short] it smells like it got cooked. Didn't pop the #3 fuse for it in the interior driver's side fuse block either.

I put the new switch in and it fried almost immediately. This all started with a new left-hand mirror. The original switch, I tried both mirrors and they worked fine in all directions. Put the door back together and it only worked down only, both mirrors.
Chilton and Clymer repair manuals do not have the wiring schematic for the power mirror. I dunno, maybe the new mirror is bad but I don't know how to test it without the schematic for it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I ordered another switch but I need to find the short before I plug it in.

Dodger Stadium restroom
How often should I tell my partner I love her and think she is the most beautiful woman in the world?
People lie for many reasons. People will believe a lie for only one of two reasons: either they want it to be true or they are afraid it may be true. Honesty works best.
Dude that's just masturbating with a toy. Participation is always better
Take a shot. Tell her
Which progression do you prefer.Manual, oral, penetration...Oral, manual, penetration...Some of the above, none of the above?Which way arouses you faster?
Dude, if she's cheating and you're thinking of cheating why are you still together?
Spitting sends the man the wrong message. You'll take his cock in your mouth but not swallow? Are you doing this for pleasure or obligation?Personally if a woman enjoy sgiving oral as much as I like receiving it the experience is so much better. Of course reciprocation is always in order

Texas Court Explains PTAB Roadblock to Patent Litigation
Texas Court Stuns Patent Troll Business Model
Texas has become well known, some would say infamous, for their patent friendly federal district courts. Over the years, "patent trolls" have increasingly flocked to Texas District Courts such as the eastern district (Marshall) to leverage these pro-patentee forums.
Since September 16, 2012, new USPTO post grant patent proceedings have been increasingly leveraged as the first true alternative to patent litigation. Here again, Texas courts offered patentees a benefit over many other districts in the U.S. That is, historically, Texas judges have been reluctant to stay litigation pending USPTO reexamination proceedings. To date, most presumed that this historical bias against staying litigation pending USPTO reexamination would continue despite the increase in speed in the new patent challenge proceedings of the America Invents Act (AIA). Yet, as made clear last week, the heightened standard necessary to institute an Inter Partes Review at the USPTO's Patent Trial & Appeal Board (PTAB), coupled with the recent outcome in Fresenius USA v. Baxter Int'l. (CAFC 2013), has Texas courts rethinking the wisdom of their previous anti-stay stance. Read the rest of this entry »

It might be the first time that the Bird's Nest at Bowen Field has had a shirt for sale with the number and name of a current player on the back.
Welcome to Wasze's world.
"I think it is just really cool that the town cares about you and it is good playing in front of people that you know," Tazewell native and Bluefield Blue Jays pitcher Zak Wasilewski said. "I am just trying to make everybody proud here, that is what I am trying to do."
He is doing just fine.
"It is a great time," said the 20-year-old Wasilewski, who wears No. 13, much like he did at Tazewell. "I couldn't ask for anything more."
Wasilewski will make his fourth appearance of the Appalachian League season tonight when the Blue Jays host the Johnson City Cardinals. First pitch is slated for 7:05 p.m.
It will be his third appearance at Bowen Field in front of an abundance of Tazewell supporters, many of whom will be dressed in green. After a nerve-filled debut for the Blue Jays on June 21 which resulted in a loss to Greeneville, Wasilewski is starting to approach each opportunity much like he did at extended spring training in Florida before arriving in Bluefield.
"It took a lot of pressure of me," said Wasilewski, of getting through his initial outing in front of the home crowd. "I am just doing what I did in extended more so than what I did in my first time out.
"I just relaxed and let myself do the rest...I enjoy it, I am glad everybody comes out and watches us, it makes you feel real good."
Wasilewski, who was a 14th round draft choice by Toronto in 2012, lost his debut for the Blue Jays, but has won his last two appearances and will enter tonight's outing with a 2-1 record and a 4.63 ERA.
"I have been staying focused with what I have been doing in the pen, just working on a lot of stuff with my pitching coach," Wasilewski said. "I think I will get better each time I go out."
So far so good.
Wasilewski worked five innings at Danville last Monday, allowing three hits and no runs, striking out three and walking none. That followed a relief appearance on June 26, in which he also earned the win against Burlington.
He has allowed 12 hits in 11 2/3 innings, while striking out seven and walking six.
Unlike his tenure at Tazewell where Wasilewski could play other positions when not on the mound, the 6-foot-1 southpaw must wait for his opportunities to come. It has been a week since he last pitched, but he has learned to use that time to his advantage.
"You get to think about it when you have a good start, you will learn from that and when you have a bad one you have got time too," Wasilewski said. "It really helps you to learn about what you really need to work on."
Bluefield enters tonight's game with Johnson City in first place in the Appalachian League's East Division, and much of that success comes from a pitching staff that has compiled an impressive 3.28 team ERA.
"I am not the only one, we have a lot of good prospects on this team, a lot of guys and I am learning stuff over the last year that has really helped me out a lot," he said. "There is always going to be guys that are going to be better than you and that is why when you go out you just have to do the best you can do and at the end of the day that is all you can do."
There was a time when Wasilewski was known as more than just a strong-armed pitcher. He also set records at Tazewell with his bat, but he has learned to deal with leaving the hitting to someone else.
"I miss hitting a lot, that is for sure," he said, with a laugh, "but they like me as a pitcher so that is what I have got to do."
Wasilewski, who passed on a scholarship to the University of South Carolina to play professional baseball, is now focused on his craft, which is related to his powerful left arm.
"I am learning how to really pitch," said the 6-foot-1 Wasilewski, who has shown significant improvement from an 0-3 record and a 7.89 ERA in 10 appearances last summer in the Gulf Coast League. "I really never threw a whole lot in high school, it is really learning how to pitch and it's not how hard you throw because everybody throws hard here.
"It is just learning how to change speeds on hitters and picking up little things."
Wasilewski had, surprisingly, never pitched at Bowen Field before this season. His Bulldogs had played in the Coppinger Invitational in Bluefield, but he was usually only on the mound in opening round games at Tazewell.
"Always where we would play the first game down there in Tazewell, I would throw that one and we would never really get to play here," he said.
Even though Wasilewski is just a short drive from home, he enjoys staying with the rest of the Blue Jays in the MountainView Conference Center on Cumberland Road.
"I stay in the hotel with everyone else," he said. "There is a lot of team bonding and stuff."
Wasilewski returns to the mound tonight. There will, no doubt, be green-clad Tazewell fans in attendance, and possibly even a few folks wearing T-shirts with a "13" and "Wasilewski" stitched on the back.
He will do his best to make those folks proud. In reality, he already has.
"Every time I go out I want to do good," he said. "I want to show them I am here for a reason."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Men's Shelter of Charlotte is now turning away registered sex offenders as officials try to help the offenders who already live there – some of them for several years – find jobs and homes of their own.
Shelter officials made the decision Friday to not accept any new registered offenders. But Executive Director Carson Dean said they've been trying to find a solution for months to the persistent homelessness and joblessness of some 50 sex offenders at the shelter.
"It's very difficult for us," Dean said. "Because of the offense that's on their records, it just becomes very difficult for them to get a job, get someone to rent you an apartment."
Homeless facilities like the Men's Shelter often become a last resort for sex offenders who are released from prison and must report their addresses to the local sheriff's office, according to local and state officials.
Between laws that restrict where sex offenders can live – nowhere near schools, child care centers or parks – and landlords who don't want to rent to them, many have trouble finding a place to live, even temporarily.
And those "last resorts" often turn sex offenders away, too, according to a 2009 report from the state Department of Correction. The study shows many community-based shelters across the state have criteria that prevent them from accepting sex offenders.
Some turn sex offenders away because they don't want to house them alongside women and children. Others, like the Men's Shelter of Charlotte, can't handle the burden of sex offenders who often turn into lifetime shelter residents.
None living at the shelter will be kicked out. Dean hopes the decision to turn away new offenders will give shelter case managers more one-on-one time with the registered offenders there. "We're going to help them find some place that they can be in compliance with their offender status," Dean said.
Before the decision to no longer allow sex offenders, the shelter was taking in about two registered men a month. Just under 800 sex offenders are registered in Mecklenburg County, according to the N.C. Department of Justice.
Dean said he would like the Department of Corrections and other state and federal agencies play a bigger role in reducing the risk of homelessness for sex offenders. "It's not the right thing for someone to be stuck in the shelter forever," he said. "Whether they are coming out of a state or federal prison – those are the resources that should be helping them with housing."
Department of Corrections officials Saturday were not immediately available for contact.
Shana Rowan, a spokeswoman for the New York-based USA Families Advocating an Intelligent Registry, a national nonprofit advocating for fair sex offender registry laws, said county and state legislators should examine how statutory requirements contribute to offender homelessness.
"When it comes to sex offenders, we've just legislated these people to the point where there's nowhere for them to live," Rowan said.

A look back at 2012 would be incomplete without focusing on visuals - news photos of the year in the Redlands and Loma Linda area.
Some of the most newsworthy images of the year on Redlands-Loma Linda Patch were contributed by you, Patch users.
This roundup is subjective and not to be confused with the most-viewed news reports of the year. Feel free to point out what photos you believe were left out, and as ever, you are invited to upload your photos directly to this report.
In January 2012, Redlands residents gathered to pray for justice and the arrests of whoever fatally shot two teens near the Cinnamon Creek Apartments in January 2011.
In mid-January, the Loma Linda Academy basketball teams fought hard in games against Linfield Christian. The boys squad lost, but the girls defeated the Lions.
In early February 2012, Angeles National Forest biologist Ann Berkley submitted a photo of bighorn sheep viewed through a scope at South Fork of Big Rock Creek in the San Gabriel Mountains, to illustrate the need for volunteers in the annual bighorn count.
In mid-February, the Caltrans chief for San Bernardino and Riverside counties labeled his agency's role in a massive freeway backup in the Pass east of Redlands and Loma Linda a "fiasco" and removed a resident engineer from the project.
Raymond W. Wolfe, Caltrans District 8 director, said in an email obtained by Patch he was "embarrassed and disappointed" by the actions of some of his staff, but said he took "full responsiblity."
Patch had exclusive photos of the 20-mile logjam, which were published by LA Observed and the Los Angeles Times.
Also in February, RHS fought hard but fell to Dana Hills in the second round of the Division 1 girls soccer CIF-Southern Section Ford Championships.
In early March, thousands of youth baseball players and their families packed Community Park for opening day ceremonies, and the Citrus Valley girls soccer won a CIF Title, the first for a team in the school's three-year history.
In late March the 28th Redlands Bicycle Classic got under way in with a prologue in Redlands and shifted to Beaumont for road racing.
In April 2012, Redlands police held a joint press conference with the U.S. Attorney's Office, the DEA and San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department to announce the bust of a drug trafficking ring.
In early May, the campaign for James Ramos, candidate for county supervisor in the Third District, released part of a letter from the Fair Political Practices Commission stating his disclosure of economic interests are appropriate. Redlands-Loma Linda Patch tracked down Ramos at a fundraiser for a photo showing him with District Attorney Mike Ramos, who endorsed his campaign.
Also in May, Rod Piazza & The Mighty Flyers performed at Mill Creek Cattle Co. in Mentone.
In mid-May, residents from the Redlands-Loma Linda area were among hundreds who took part in the 8th Annual SBSD Mud Run, hosted and organized by the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. City of Redlands officials have discussed hosting a mud run in 2013.
In early June, firefighters with Engine-Medic Squad 261 and AMR Redlands Division responded to the YMCA at 500 East Citrus Avenue in Redlands, where a woman was injured.
Also in June, a young soldier from Yucaipa was laid to rest in peace in spite of an extremist Kansas church's threat to protest and 'preach' their message near Yucaipa Christian Church. They did not make a public appearance anywhere near the memorial service for Army Pfc. Nathan Tyler Davis.
In July, some people tried to beat the heat by visiting Big Falls in Mill Creek Canyon. Emily Barton, 17, of Calimesa, and Morgan Kopitsky, 17, of Yucaipa, said they walked up to the base of the falls to "get out of the house."
Also in July, more than 250 people attended a City of Redlands public hearing on the proposed Walmart Supercenter. The hearing was held at Citrus Valley High to accomodate the crowd.
In late July, a fire broke out in the Outer Highway 10 area in Yucaipa and spread quickly into Redlands, prompting temporary evacuations of homes on Knoll Drive. A Patch user submitted one of the most newsworthy photos of the year.
In early August, the president of the Citrus Research Board, stating he represents all growers for a $2 billion statewide industry, came to Redlands to warn residents of the minute Asian Citrus Psyllid insect that can spread the tree-killing disease Huanglongbing.
Also in August, people came to Redlands from places including north San Bernardino, Highland, Yucaipa, Beaumont and Indio to line up for chicken, after former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Baptist minister, declared a "Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day."
A few days later, the Redlands-area Sikh community held a vigil to support victims of shooting at a temple in Wisconsin. City councilmembers were among those who joined scores of local Sikh residents at Orange Street and Redlands Boulevard.
Later in August, a day after hard rains unleashed boulders, mud and logs in Mill Creek Canyon, a rattler was trying to catch rays near Big Falls, and volunteers with the San Gorgonio Wilderness Association and the Wildlands Conservancy held a Forest Fest at Barton Flats.
In September, fire crews from Redlands and Mentone responded to a blaze possibly sparked by lightning in the Mill Creek-Santa Ana River wash. Hundreds of residents in the rural citrus neighborhood, mixed with dense, new housing tracts, watched aircraft and ground crews battle the blaze for several hours.
In early October, a woman boxer named Kaliesha West, who works at Loma Linda University Medical Center, defeated Christina Ruiz of San Antonio, Texas, to become International Female Boxers Association Super Bantamweight champion in Pomona.
On Oct. 19, RHS defeated REV 41-37 for the 2012 Smudge Pot and football bragging rights in Redlands. Redlands High held on to win and improve to 7-1 for the 2012 season.
Oct. 28, women, makeup artists and costume artists flaunted professional-level talent at the Inland Empire Comic Expo's 2nd Annual Zombie Beauty Queen Pageant in Redlands.
In November, scores of people packed the alley outside Augie's Coffee House in downtown Redlands for the IE Zine Fest, organized in part by Ray Duran, a manager at Comic Quest of Redlands.
In mid-December, snow dusted Mill Creek Canyon east of Redlands and Loma Linda, offering a prelude of the wintry weather evident in the region as the New Year arrives.

---- — A Heights at Cape Ann tenant stood next to a heap of white furniture outside of her doorway Wednesday, emptying her apartment as she prepared for a bedbug extermination set for Friday — and pondering where she might stay in the meantime.
"It's physically, mentally, emotionally affected me," said tenant Vikki Larocque.
The tiny, wingless bugs, had crept into at least four apartments in Larocque's building, according to Max Schenk, the city's manager of environmental health services.
He said his department became involved with the privately-owned complex when Larocque called the city. But the city is limited in terms of how it can respond to a private property.
"Bedbugs are a nuisance, absolutely, and I feel badly for the tenants, but they're not considered a public health emergency," Schenk said Wednesday. "They don't transmit disease. They are scary when you hear about them, but it's like any other pest control problem."
Schenk said his office sent an inspector to the apartment complex Wednesday morning. The inspector reported back that he was unable to make contact with Larocque, but he spoke to a building manager who said a pest control person was already scheduled to exterminate four apartments and inspect the entire building after extermination.
The 276-unit apartment complex is owned by Forest Property Management, based in Cambridge. A woman identified as the property manager at the Heights at Cape Ann refused any comment on the situation Wednesday, saying the management would have nothing to say about the infestation.
Larocque said she first discovered bedbugs in her apartment Monday night, then spoke to other residents with the same problem Tuesday and notified the building manager that day.
She complained openly Wednesday about an allegedly slow response from management, saying an exterminator was not scheduled to arrive until Friday while she and many tenants were left with no place to go.
"I have to leave my home with my entire family and find some place to go," said Larocque, who lives at her apartment with her husband, 4-year-old daughter and brother-in-law.
She said she and her family moved to Gloucester from Maine and have lived at the Heights of Cape Ann for the past almost 21/2 years, while they save up to buy a home.
Wednesday, Larocque steamed and bleached her home and belongings and prepared to leave the complex for good.
"I came here for solace," she said. "I didn't come here for this."
Schenk said a bedbug bite should be treated like any common bug bite, unless the person notices an allergic reaction. A resident should treat bedbugs by putting all clothing first in a hot dryer, then a wash cycle, then again in a hot dryer and by using an exterminator for larger objects like furniture, he said.
Though a landlord is not required to temporarily house a tenant affected by bedbugs, if a landlord is unresponsive to the tenant, that tenant should contact the Health Department.
He added, however, that his department has found that the Heights of Cape Ann had gone about the process properly.
"The best I can do is check to make sure that the landlord is responding appropriately — and they were," Schenk said.

COLUMBUS: A bipartisan proposal to change the way Ohio draws state legislative and congressional lines cleared the state Senate with almost unanimous support Thursday.
The joint resolution would create a seven-member commission to draw all maps, and at least one minority party member would have to approve the boundaries.
State Sen. Tom Sawyer, a member of the task force that came up with the redistricting proposal, was pleased to see the Senate's overwhelming approval and hopes it is a sign the entire legislature will be receptive to adopting the resolution in the next session and putting it before voters.
"This had broad and deep support," said Sawyer, D-Akron. "It's simple. It draws clear, bright lines about redistricting."
On the Senate floor, Sawyer explained the process that led to the resolution, including the meetings between him and three other senators interested in coming up with a new approach to redistricting. He then called on Sen. Frank LaRose to explain — in 30 seconds or less — what the resolution would do.
He said senators timed LaRose, R-Copley Twp., who was able to meet the time restriction. Colleagues rewarded him with applause, then voted 32-1 in favor.
Area state Sens. Larry Obhof, R-Montville Twp., and Scott Oelslager, R-North Canton, joined the majority. Kris Jordan, R-Ostrander, was the lone dissenter.
LaRose said the group that worked on the joint resolution agreed from the beginning the plan needed to be easy to explain, which was one of the criticisms of state Issue 2, a redistricting proposal on this fall's ballot that voters rejected overwhelmingly.
He said that issue failed because of its own flaws, not because people didn't want to see the process change.
Under the joint resolution, a seven-member redistricting commission would be established: the governor, state auditor, secretary of state and four members whom legislative leaders in each chamber would appoint. None of the members could be a sitting member of the state legislature or Congress.
The commission would elect bipartisan co-chairs. To win approval, any plan would need at least five votes, including at least one vote from a commission member from the minority party.
LaRose thinks his Senate colleagues have their work cut out for them to gain the support they need in the House next year, where he expects resistance.
"Today was a clear demonstration that it can be done," he said. "We did it in the Senate. We laid out a road map."
Thursday was the last scheduled voting day for the state legislature.
State Sen. Keith Faber, who's slated to become Senate president next year, apologized to the House for getting the plan to the chamber too late.
"We don't expect you to vote on this this session," said Faber, R-Celina. "But we do expect you to work with us next session to start with this template and get the job done."

Famous at the global level, the excavations of Pompeii is the only archaeological site in the world, along with that of Herculaneum, capable of returning visitors a Roman town, whose life has remained firm to a distant morning in 79 AD, an era from which the Vesuvius decided to cancel by earth orbit.
The old Roman who visit today is actually "son" of another, oldest, founded in early sixth century BC by Osci. The Italian city has left many traces of itself. Indeed, it initially inhabited only in the area where is now the forum, extended after taking the plant to rectangular blocks (insulae) still visible. Many buildings currently visited were made during the second century BC before Pompeii, following the war that the social opposed to Rome, was conquered by L. Cornelius became a Roman colony Silla (80 BC). Over the years the colony there were some important achievements such as the Baths of the Forum and the Amphitheatre. The current was achieved in the first imperial age, an era which date from the Palestra Grande and public buildings on the east side of the Forum. The latter, surrounded by a portico and dominated from the temple of Jupiter, is the heart of the city, its political, administrative and commercial matters. At the Forum opposed the district theaters, beating heart of cultural activities and religious pompeiane, made in the second century BC The activities "games" were placed in large part on the far outskirts where you can visit the Amphitheatre and the Palestra Grande. Of great interest the public baths: those of "Forum" and "Stabiane" visited only in the male section and characterized by alternating of environments temperature gradually increasing (frigidarium, tepidarium and calidarium).

Boulder's Berger & Föhr Featured in 'Modern in Denver' Magazine
On pages 52-59 in the Spring issue of Modern in Denver, you'll find a robust profile on Boulder design firm Berger & Föhr. The piece covers their evolution from Cypher13 to the two-man studio they are today, explains some insights into their process and talks about the philosophy that binds them together. Pick up a copy and give it a read.
"People thought we were crazy to close Cypher13," Todd explains after they shut down in 2010, but it was a waste of space and money to stay put. However, something about working side-by-side with Lucian rang true. "He had earned this partnership," Todd insists.
Congrats dudes. I still love you guys minus the sneakers and b-boy hats. But those were fun days. All you've accomplished is the result of deliberate focus and hard work. You deserve the attention and it's been inspiring to watch you guys progress. Keep up the great work guys.

I write about enterprise innovation.
So Argo won Best Picture at yesterday's Oscars even though I hoped it would not. Surprise number 2 Michelle Obama got to open the magic envelope.
Was this such a telling moment in American history that the Obama White House should be involved? Because if it was then Ben Affleck should have got some of the facts a little straighter.
But wait a minute, isn't there something creepy about Michelle's endorsement? A further blurring of the fiction-faction line?
As it is Argo's way with the facts has caused consternation in Canada and Britain, on the one hand for underplaying the role of the Canadians and on the other for ignoring the role of the Brits. Here's a comment from my post yesterday:
I can't believe you commenters have the nerve to praise the authenticity of this film! President Carter and Ambassador Taylor themselves have said (look it up on Youtube!) that it distorted the truth! Your American "hero" was in Iran for all of 1.5 days while this was going on and yet the Canadians put their lives on the line every day for over 3 months and refused to leave until they got the Americans safely out!
They arranged the passports, they arranged the flight out, they gave shelter to the hostages and they also agreed to spy for President Carter in order to help get information to the States on the conditions regarding the other hostages. They did all this despite the fact that they knew they were endangering their own lives and certainly ending the diplomatic relationship between Canada and Iran by acting to protect and assist Americans in this situation.
And by the way, many of the "event's in this movie are not the case… The British and New Zealand embassy staff HELPED, they did NOT turn the Americans away to go it alone!
But let's give praise where it is due. Argo was a good thriller, very much in the Hollywood mode. Its plot twists were well paced and it has an exciting, if slightly risible, climax as the Iranian revolutionary guard chases Ben's plane down the runway in a jeep, seemingly incapable of attracting the pilot's attention.
So good film but hardly Oscar material. But after two years of non-American winners Best Picture has come home.
My gripe with it as I said yesterday is I expected to learn more about the people involved, particularly about the demands of being an American hostage under those conditions, and of being the person/people helping them.
Looking at Clooney and Affleck holding aloft those statuettes I couldn't help feeling let down, just a little, by who these actor/producers are. They have strong humanitarian credentials but skipped the opportunity to tell the human side of this story in the depth it deserves.
I saw 6 of the 9 "Best Picture" nominees and I was particularly disappointed that Argo won Best Picture. I think that Life of Pi, Lincoln, Les Miserables and even Django Unchained were all far better films than Argo.
Argo was little better than the standard Hollywood escapist film.
Did the Academy want to give the award to Hollywood insiders, Affleck and Clooney? I am truly baffled how Argo won Best Picture.
As a Canadian historian Argo's win bothered me on a number of levels. It wasn't a particularly great movie, and what has increasingly become clear to me, Affleck's flippant attitude and complete disregard for historical accuracy. Its quite clear that he doesn't really believe he did anything wrong in telling, as he puts it, 'Mendez's story.' Expect Argo wasn't even Mendez's story or Taylor's, it was Affleck's story. Therein lies my biggest problem with both Affleck and the film. As a movie buff and historian I'm perfectly aware that Hollywood has taken liberties with history to tell stories, but I am having a difficult time recalling any film in recent history that, not only got the facts wrong, but sought to rewrite a historical event where the majority of historical characters are still living. Almost all 'retellings' have no living links to the historical event. Many people today lived through this event, some obviously more intimately than others, and I've never witnessed such a deliberately poor retelling of a recent event (he had years to make it, it was no secret he knew the actual history) have that retelling attempt to be justified as Affleck has tried to do, and have it be sanctioned as a'best picture.' I also agree that Michelle Obama's role, complete with military guard, was not only strange but unsettling. Affleck praised Spielburg, but would he have ever taken so many liberties as Affleck with Schindler's List? Never, because survivors would have been outraged, but then again Spielburg's movie was for them, and not to serve any broader political message. Affleck's film is, I suppose, in keeping with politicians who like to rewrite history to serve their own ends and is a sign of a much more troubling and widespread trend. And yet it seems that Afflek still feels he's in the right, his 'thank you' to Canada in a 'rushed' moment was no more believeable than the film and was done likely because Taylor called him out two days ago saying that Canada should be mentioned in his speech. I still think he views the real historical actors with contempt, perhaps even as 'whiners' stealing his moment. Yet the bigger message I think, is that we should all be troubled by Argo's win, Americans and Canadians for the precidents it sets. Excuse typos, on an Ipad.
