Chapter 1
I'm driving back from school, doing my best to not get into an accident. Mom and Catherine wanted me to do my best to get back in time to go to some school function that Lindsey is somehow a part of. Catherine wasn't too up on the giving of details to what it was exactly that I was supposed to be going to. She just told me that Nikki was supposed to meet us there and that they would reserve me a chair. Often times, I still wonder if they all somehow got fired from their jobs and have just discovered a crafty way of hiding it from me. It seems like they've got a lot of time on their hands.
Me? I don't quite have it as easy. Being a full time student and working a part-time job just isn't as easy as my parents led me to believe that it would be. They were all smiling faces and happy words when they encouraged me to do all this, but they seemed to leave out the parts about lack of sleep and lack of time. It's been almost a week since I've gotten a chance to see Nik. I've been so busy at work that I just decided to sleep in the spare room there. I can barely even remember the last time I saw Catherine, Mom and Lindsey in the same room all at the same time. Usually when I get a chance to hang out with any of them, it's individually and for short bursts of time.
So this thing that Lindsey is involved in at school better be worth the hassle of getting out of class early and out of work completely. Don't get me wrong, I care deeply about my younger sister, but at this point sleep is starting to mean more to me, not that I would ever mention that to Lindsey's face.
I make it to Lindsey's school and as promised my family is waiting in front of the building for me. Catherine levels a glare at me that lets me know she's not happy that I'm late. I put a big smile on my face anyway and kiss and hug both my parents then turn to Nikki and wrap my arms around her. We walk into the school building and Catherine leads us to the school's cafeteria where a bunch of art is on display. In the very front of the room is a painting that seems to be some kind of rendition of, well me. It has a big blue ribbon on it proclaiming that it's won first place in the regional competition.
Okay, so I take back even thinking that I would want sleep over anything involving Lindsey at all. I walk up to the painting and bend over to get a close look at it. It's like looking through a window that is broken into four sections. In the upper left-hand section there's me standing against a wall with some of my hair covering my face. My body looks strong but the one eye that is exposed from between my hair is glistening and there's a tear running down the curve of my cheek.
In the upper right hand pane I'm standing outside on the roof of some house overlooking an ocean and am screaming up at the sky. Rain falls down on my face and the wind is blowing my hair wildly in all directions. There are cuts on my wrists and hands and blood is flowing down the open wounds. I'm wearing nothing but a white tank top and boxer shorts that are so wet they are clinging to my body like a second skin.
That image brings back some memories that I can't clearly remember these days. The girl in this image is in pain. I remember that pain. I won't ever be able to forget it, nor do I really want to.
My eyes move down to the lower left-hand image and there I am on the roof of a building that is clearly labeled hospital. I'm in a wheelchair and my arms and hands are bandaged. I'm in a hospital gown that has spots of blood on it, but the big difference about this image and the others is that I'm not alone. Nikki is standing behind me with each of her hands on the back handles of the wheelchair. Catherine is bending down on my right and her hand is covering my own. Lindsey is sitting on my left and her head is on my shoulder. Mom is in front of me. Both of her hands rest on my knees and she's leaning down and placing a kiss on top of my forehead. All of our eyes are closed and there are tears running down all of our faces.
The last image, the lower right-hand image, is bright and colorful. I'm lying down in a park with a big smile on my face. The scars on my arms and hands are exposed but don't look angry and menacing. Somehow, Lindsey has made them look as if they were just a part of my skin as if I was born with them. Nikki is lying next to me, except this time she's in her police uniform. Catherine and Mom are off to the side with their hands joined smiling at me and Nikki. Lindsey is behind Nikki and me holding what looks like a water balloon and is about to throw it directly at my face. We're all happy and we're all together.
The title of Lindsey's piece of work is "Towards Family".
I never even knew she was working on anything like it. No one ever said anything to me and they all must have known about it. Lindsey isn't very good a keeping secrets, even though there are some secrets of hers that I wish she didn't feel the need to tell me. I swear that when Lindsey told me she lost her virginity I couldn't look Catherine in the face for almost a whole month. I thought that if Catherine got a clear look in my eyes then she would somehow guess what it was I was trying to not tell her.
"Is it okay?" Lindsey asks tentatively from behind me. "Do you like it? Are you angry?"
"Are you selling it?" I ask, not taking my eyes off of the painting.
"We had the option to auction it, but I don't want to. I want to give it to you."
I nod.
"Are you angry?" She asks me again. "Is it okay? Mom and Sara said you wouldn't be angry, but I didn't really believe them. They said that since you loved me then you would love it, but now that I think about it that's not really true. You could hate it and still love me."
Finally, I turn away from the painting and reach out towards Lindsey. I wrap my arm around her shoulders and whisper into her ear, "It's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in my life. This deserves much more than a ribbon, Linds." I pull away and place a soft kiss on her cheek.
When we pull apart we're each smiling and I can tell that Lindsey is more than happy to win my seal of approval. She runs away from us to seek out some person in the crowd and tells me to stay exactly where I am. Once she's far enough away, Mom leans over to me. "Are you really okay with this?"
"There's nothing in that painting except the truth, Mom."
When we all decided that it was time for me to go away for school and get out on my own, we all sat down and talked about what that would mean. My parents weren't too willing to let me go at the time, but they knew that it was ultimately my decision. They may have started to push me towards normalizing my life, but I'm the one that put it into hyper-drive. Once I decided to get on with school and everything I just sort of told them that I had to accept everything that happened and not try to hide away from anything. That ultimately meant that I had to face the truth of what I…what we all had been through and not try to hide from any of it. I couldn't hide from what my grandparents had put me through. I couldn't hide from what my mother had done and I couldn't hide from what I had done from myself.
Like the scars that Lindsey drew onto my body, I had to accept them as part of me. Everything had to be exposed instead of covered up. That was the only way I could become someone else than the person my past had made me.
Lindsey comes running back over to me pulling along a woman I can't remember ever seeing before. "This is my art teacher Ms. Carla," Lindsey tells me then turns to Ms. Carla, "Ms. Carla, this is my sister Melinda. She's a real person."
I hold out my hand for Ms. Carla to take. She smiles at me and softly takes my hand then quickly pulls away. She looks nervous for some reason. I didn't know I was that intimidating. "I've heard a lot about you." She tells me, her eyes shifting over to the painting then quickly back to me.
"I'll take that as a compliment." I smile then turn to Catherine, Mom and Nikki who have been standing silently behind me. "I'm not sure if you've met the rest of the clan," I move back a bit. "These are our parents Catherine and Sara and my girlfriend Nikki."
Ms. Carla pushes her glasses up then nods at each of them. "Yes, I've met them. They were at the school's first open house for the art students." She smiles at me. "I was told you were out of town."
Before I can respond someone calls out for Ms. Carla and she's hurrying across the cafeteria to probably do more meet and greets. Lindsey runs off as well and tells me that I need to, again, stay where I am and wait. She brings a few of her friends over who bring some of their parents. For an hour Lindsey has me meeting people that I'll probably never see again.
When we finally get out of there, Lindsey has talked me into going out with her and a few (hundred) of her friends. Nikki and I meet up with them at some restaurant that I didn't even know existed. It is also a pool hall and teenage club type place. Mom and Catherine gave their pre-approval of the place so I didn't think it would be too bad. They failed to mention that Nikki and I would be surrounded by a bunch of teenagers that fail to realize that fun can consist of speaking at decibels below ear drum bursting levels.
Lindsey may have wanted me to come with her, but I have hardly seen her since we walked in the door. She ran away with some of her friends. She's come to see me every once in a while, though, to get some more money from me. Nikki and I are playing pool. "You really suck at this game." Nikki tells me as she drops the eight ball into another corner pocket winning yet another game.
"Sucking is all relative." I say as I take a seat in front of her on top of the pool table. "Anyway, you get more chance to practice since you go out with all of your cop buddies all the time to bars and…wait do you guys anywhere else besides bars?" I wait for a moment before I continue. "Oh I remember you go to strip clubs too."
Nikki's body sags against mine. "Are we seriously going to talk about this again?"
"No," I sigh, "we're not." I jump down from the table and wrap my arms around her body. "You already know I don't like some of the people you hang around."
Nikki's arms go around me and she pulls me closer to her. "And you should know that I didn't like how 'Ms. Carla' was checking you out all night."
"She was?" I didn't notice that at all. She seemed nervous and shy the few times she came over to talk to me or so, but I didn't know what any of that was about. I assumed she was just nervous about meeting the real life model that Lindsey was using as her inspiration.
"She was all over you, Mel."
"Oh." A smile sneaks onto my face. "That's probably because I'm really attractive."
Nikki laughs. "I can't argue with that."
"And you shouldn't."
Nikki leans forward and kisses me. When she pulls away she asks, "Tell me again why we're in some teen club when we haven't seen each other at all for a week."
"Lindsey wanted to spend some time with me."
"And where is she?"
"I have no idea."
"We should leave."
Lindsey runs up to us and immediately Nikki and I pull apart. Nikki is reaching in her back pocket to pull out her wallet. Lindsey has already managed to take all the cash I was carrying on me and I refuse to let her loose with my debit card. I'm not as rich as Lindsey might think I am. It's amazing how hospital bills, school bills and therapist bills can add up over the years. Most of my inheritance went towards making me well. There's a certain kind of poetic justice if one were to really think about it. My grandparents' money went to making me well. That's something they probably never thought would end up happening to the money. They probably thought I would waste it all on…well on something else.
"Mandy wants me to stay the night with her," Lindsey tells me as she absently accepts the ten dollar bill Nikki holds out to her. "Mom said she wanted me at home tonight."
"Then you better tell Mandy you can't stay with her." I say making sure to keep my voice firm. Honestly, I'd rather let Mandy take Lindsey with her so that I don't have to drop Lindsey off back home. I rather just let Nikki take me back to our apartment so that we can have a real conversation without a few hundred onlookers.
"Mom's just being overprotective and hostile since she found out about Zach."
I turn to Nikki. "Catherine found out about Zach?" Nikki nods. "Does she know that I knew before she did?"
Nikki runs her hands through her hair. "About that, you might not want to be alone in a room with her for a while. She does carry a gun."
"Well did she know that you knew before she knew?" I can't be the only one that is in trouble. "Wait. How did she even find out about it?"
"Nikki forced me to tell her because she thought it was time I get on birth control." Lindsey shoots Nikki a menacing glare that leaves Nikki completely unaffected. "She's lucky that killing her would be considered a capital offense."
"Wait." I don't have the brain power right now to handle the kind of confusion I'm going through right now. "I thought you went to Planned Parenthood right after you told me. You said you were going to, Lindsey, and I believed you. That was the deal we made so that I would let you tell Sara and Catherine about you sleeping with Zach on your own."
Lindsey looks away from me and starts staring at her shoes. I cross my arms in front of me and Lindsey at least has the decency to look somewhat ashamed. "Go tell Mandy that there is no way in Hell that you're staying with her tonight because there is no way in Hell that your sister is going to convince your mother that you're responsible enough to handle being unsupervised." Lindsey opens her mouth and I'm sure she's about to say something that will make me a lot angrier than I already am, so I hold up my hand to forestall her words. "Just leave. We'll meet you outside."
She stomps away from us and as soon as she's lost in the crowd Nikki puts her arms back around me. "How was it that I missed all this?" I ask more upset at myself now than I actually am at Lindsey. There's so much stuff I'm missing now. If I had been around more than there would have been no way that Lindsey could have hid that painting from me or anything else for that matter. I'd actually know what was going on in this family.
It's been three years since I started to piece my life back together and entered college. Perhaps I've gotten a little carried away with the living thing and have forgotten a little about the loving thing. It's been hard enough just trying to maintain my relationship with Nikki. The other day when I was talking with Mom on the phone I actually called her Sara. I think it kind of freaked us both out a little since the last time I used her first name was when we weren't really on the best of terms. She asked me if I was upset with her and then followed that question up with asking me if I was still taking my medication. That just led to us fighting about her trusting me to handle my own life.
"You've been busy, Mel." Nikki eventually responds. Somehow, I get the feeling that she really wants to tell me something else but is too busy trying to be supportive and leaves out the part about how she really feels.
I lean more of my weight against her. "Don't you really mean that I've been a self-absorbed ass too busy to pay attention to the people I love the most in the world?"
Nikki chuckles softly. "Remember those are your words, besides I think you're beating yourself up enough without my help right now."
"Okay." I kiss Nikki then pull away from her and grab onto her hand. "First we drop Lindsey off at home and then we go back home and figure out how I'm going to fix all this."
Nikki lets me pull her to the exit but once we're outside in the cool night air she lets go of my hand and wraps her arms back around my body. "Baby," she squeezes me to her, "we'll fix this."
"I know." I rub at my eyes because I don't want to start crying. "I'm just curious how I managed to get everything so fucked in a span of three years."
"It wasn't just you," Nikki whispers softly into my ear. "We all let things get a little fucked."
Lindsey comes storming out of the teen club, brushes past us and then walks ahead of us to the car. We follow her and she remains intentionally silent throughout the ride back to our parents' house. She gets out of the car and slams her door shut. I'm still feeling enough guilt to let her get away with her attitude. She stomps up to the house and opens the front door then slams it shut too.
Nikki and I wait in the driveway for a few moments then my cell phone rings and I answer it without even looking at who's calling because I already have really good idea who it is. "What happened?" Mom asks from the other end of my phone.
"Lindsey wanted to stay at Mandy's and I told her 'no'." I explain not really feeling the need to talk about my own issues about the night as well.
Mom makes some kind of grunting noise then asks, "So are you and Nikki going to stay in the driveway or are you coming inside?"
I look over at Nikki. "We're going to go back to the apartment."
"Okay. How long are you going to be sticking around this time?" If I didn't know better, and I'm starting to think that I don't, Mom sounds a little bitter. Perhaps her tone really isn't about me. I did just send an angry teenager into her house to deal with.
"I'm supposed to be back to work tomorrow." I reply softly. Nikki reaches out and puts her hand on my thigh after putting the car in reverse.
"Call us before you leave." Mom sounds a little angrier. Perhaps her anger is directed at me.
"Is something wrong?"
"We'll talk tomorrow." She sighs into the phone.
"Did you and Catherine get into another fight?" I've at least been around enough and have spent enough time talking to Lindsey and Nikki on the phone to know that Mom and Cath aren't on the best of terms right now. The way everyone tells it, they kind of think that it's Mom's fault though I'm inclined to think that a demise of their relationship could only be blamed on a cruel trick by some higher power.
"Tomorrow, Mel." Mom says then hangs up the phone as I hear Lindsey screaming something angrily in the background.
I shut my flip phone and tuck it back into my pocket. Nikki drives us back to our apartment and as soon as we get inside we collapse onto our bed. Nikki leans over me and slowly undresses me. If I were in the mood I'd be more than interested in undressing her too, but tonight isn't about sex and isn't about me wanting her. She kisses my face then my neck then finally hovers over my lips. We stare at each other for a moment then our lips meet and I finally release my self to her. I'll let her make me feel better about tonight and all the previous nights that I've noticed something going wrong with our family but turned a blind eye to it. I'll let us have tonight and perhaps tomorrow I'll let her know that I'm aware of the fact that the problems between us are just as bad as everything else. Maybe tomorrow, I'll let her know that her unfaithfulness isn't the big secret that she thought it was, and perhaps as I'm admitting all that I can admit that my faithfulness hasn't been so stellar either.
If I wasn't there every time I did it, I'd be asking myself too if I had remembered to take my medicine. But then again, I know that everything I do can't be blamed on being bi-polar. Some things that I do are simply actions that result from me acting like an idiot and trying to pretend again like I'm someone that I'm not.
"I love you," Nikki says softly as she runs her hand down my body, "more than anything."
I grab onto her and pull her closer to me. "I love you, Nik."
The thing is, I know that she's telling the truth and what's worse is that I know I'm telling the truth too. So that just means that love isn't our problem.

Is there an adaptable step that can be added to a regular yellow school bus to accommodate exceptionally small/short children? My daughter is exceptionally small for her age and I was told there may be a special adaptable step that may be added (or perhaps a certain bus can be used which already has this adaptable step) so that she can step onto the school bus without difficulty. Please let me know if this is a possibility and if this adaptation exists. Than you.

Don't Go Off Half-Baked
Most of us will think of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" when we think of Harriet Beecher Stowe, and some of us will still find her chronicle of the antebellum South more melodramatic than enlightening. But Stowe wrote a great deal more than her famous book, including novels that captured American folkways with insight and style. In one of them, "Oldtown Folks" (1852), she wrote: "The pie is an English institution which, planted on American soil, forthwith ran rampant and burst forth into an untold variety of genera and species."
Indeed it did, as Adrienne Kane makes abundantly—and deliciously—clear in "United States of Pie," a collection of 52 mostly heirloom American recipes drawn from our country's four major culinary regions: Northeast, South, Midwest and West. Ms. Kane has pored over hundreds of vintage cookbooks, news clippings, family recipes and the "spiral-bound, mimeographed booklets of church groups and community associations" from generations gone by. She relaunches a whole fleet of pie offerings that were the mainstay of American desserts for most of our history.
While continental Europeans have created many delectable pastries—strudels, tarts and tartlets that incorporate fruit, fruit preserves and other sweet ingredients—they have never gone in for full-fledged dessert pies as we know them. Even their languages reflect this.
The nearest thing to a word for pie in Spanish is empanada, and it means a savory, meat-filled pastry, not a dessert. The closest to a German word for pie, Torte, usually refers to a cake with some fruit trim or filling: Vienna's famous Sachertorte—basically a rich chocolate cake with chocolate icing and a thin coating of apricot jam between layers—comes to mind. Much the same can be said for the French tourte and the Italian torta, the closest synonyms for pie in those two tongues.
While the word "pie" itself can be traced back to Middle English, most early British pies fell into the savory, not sweet, category: stewy meat or poultry concoctions, sometimes with vegetables or fruit added, baked in a pastry crust that was often discarded upon serving.
United States of Pie
By Adrienne Kane
Ecco, 226 pages, $24.99
Eventually the English developed fruit tarts and what might be called fruit proto-pies, including a basic apple pie that would evolve into the bigger, deeper, rounder "American as Apple Pie" staple we know today. But that was about it. Even as jaundiced an English visitor to America as Frances Trollope (mother of Anthony) would remark that early 19th-century Americans were "extravagantly fond" of pies, serving them up in an abundance unknown on the other side of the Atlantic. One reason was that apples, peaches, cherries, plums and all manner of berries were readily available to ordinary Americans at a time when only the gentry—catered to by High Street "fruiterers" and greengrocers—consumed them back in the mother country.
Americans also developed new ingredients. The rich, custardy pecan pie that still graces many American tables was possible only after Southern colonists started cultivating the native variety of hickory tree on which pecan nuts grow; the same ingenuity applies to other Southern specialties, like sweet-potato pie. Ms. Kane is equally at home providing recipes for the fruit standards and for more arcane items, such as Hoosier Cream Pie, a Midwest curiosity nicknamed "desperation pie" because it requires only three ingredients—cream, sugar and flour—and probably appeals to the most desperate of appetites.
Where necessary, Ms. Kane modifies recipes to make them more accessible to today's home cooks, but she always includes information about the originals, such as the occasional use of lard rather than butter or shortening. While one may want to substitute ginger for cinnamon and add a splash of rum to Ms. Kane's recipe for peach pie, her judgment is generally flawless, and even the odd item that strikes a discordant note—an avocado pie with Graham cracker crust leaps to mind—makes for interesting reading and reminds us of a rich vein in our culinary heritage.
A Year of Pies
By Ashley English
Lark, 176 pages, $19.95
If Ms. Kane focuses on the authentic, the traditional and the regional side of pie, Ashley English, in "A Year of Pies," offers us a "Seasonal Tour of Home Baked Pies" that draws on global and fusion inspirations. But she also provides a guide to basic skills—including six recipes for crusts and four styles of decorative crust edging: "fluted," "crimped," "herringbone" and "cutout."
Having explained essential techniques, Ms. English shares 60 well-thought-out recipes centered on seasonal ingredients. These include adventurous items like a delicious Fried Green Tomato and Pimento Cheese Tart and a less-promising Ratatouille and Polenta Pie that may strike some skeptics as an egg-free quiche from hell.
But there are also plenty of updated standards incorporating new ingredients or flavor twists, such as Limoncello Lemon Meringue Pie or Rosemary Bourbon Sweet Potato Pie. One of the most oddly enticing is a recipe for Salt Water Taffy Pie, converting a typical boardwalk candy treat into garnish and filling for a puddinglike dessert.
A pie-filled year with Ms. English results in an eclectic range of recipes that occasionally goes off the deep end but that generally inspires and delights. Which, when you think about it, is in keeping with Harriet Beecher Stowe's long-ago description of a somber cooking tradition that eventually burst forth and ran rampant.

2009 Dog Point Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Section 94 Marlborough
Producer: Dog Point Vineyard
Style: White Wine
Grape Type: Sauvignon Blanc
Origin: New Zealand
Region: New Zealand
93 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - September/October 2011
Medium yellow. Wild, leesy aromas of musky quinine, lemon and smoke. Deeply pitched and impressively rich, with stone fruit and lemon flavors complicated by saline, smoke, mocha and quinine notes. Not as fruity as the Dog Point's basic bottling but this has more size and dimension, not to mention wildness. In weight and palate presence, it's more like chardonnay than sauvignon.

While Miami certainly didn't play its best football at North Carolina on Thursday night, it did something that only three other teams in the top 20 were able to do -- win on the road.
Miami's win over North Carolina combined with several nationally-ranked teams losing over the weekend has resulted in Miami being ranked the highest it's been in the polls since November of 2005.
The Canes are now ranked 6th in the USA Today/Coaches Poll and 7th in the AP Poll, both of which were released Sunday afternoon.
Alabama retained the top spot in both polls, while Oregon stayed at No. 2. Florida State, Miami's opponent in two weeks, is now third after dominating previously 3rd-ranked Clemson last night. Ohio State remained 4th in both polls. Baylor, which beat Iowa State, is now 6th and 5th in the two polls, respectively. Missouri, which beat Florida, is 5th in the AP Poll.
Virginia Tech, 19th and 16th in the two rankings, is the the only other remaining opponent for the Hurricanes that is currently ranked. The Canes play host to the Hokes one week after visiting 3rd-ranked FSU.

Great Value
by MJ on 11/16/2010
Bought this a few weeks ago for my iPhone4 and have to say I've been impressed (and its only $3)! The product fits the phone snuggly and does not get in the way. Best of all, it has just enough grip on the back so the phone does not slide out of your hand.

It is bad enough we have a government run amok at the federal level, dictating what we should eat, our health care and the type of cars we should drive. We in Columbia County expect better of our elected officials. Yes, we the taxpayers – the ones who get out of bed every day, go to work, pay our taxes and go about our business. And this is how you treat us in return!
I guess the parents of Columbia County officials never taught them the Golden Rule. Maybe trips to the woodshed were ineffective as a teaching tool. Or perhaps they missed the church services when the minister preached on Matthew 7:12: "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you."
Regardless, Columbia County officials failed to perform their civic duties to serve and protect the people in Columbia County. To that, I say shame, shame on you!
Perhaps they needed one more trip to the woodshed to fully learn and understand the Golden Rule!

With a unique blend of speeds in excess of 175 mph, and banking of nine degrees on its narrow straightaways and 24 degrees in its sweeping turns, Dover has earned the nickname the "Monster Mile" for its toughness on both man and machine.

Adina Howard
Share This
Grand Rapids, Michigan native
Adina Howard
became a national sensation with the funky R&B of her platinum debut album, 1995's
Do You Wanna Ride
, and its number two pop hit single, "Freak Like Me" (covered seven years later by Sugababes, who took it to number one in the U.K.). The singer's follow-up,
Welcome to Fantasy Island
, was shelved just prior to its planned 1997 release by EastWest. Despite a popular collaboration with Jamie Foxx on "T-Shirt and Panties" off the Woo soundtrack, Howard didn't release an official second album until 2003, when the Rufftown label issued The Second Coming. Hampered by distribution and promotion issues, it didn't receive much attention and sold poorly. Howard then switched to the Arsenal label, which released Private Show in 2007. She attended Le Cordon Bleu, earned a degree from the institution, and continued to record into the latter half of the 2010s.

A Dutch newspaper has been forced to apologise after it accidentally published a story saying Johan Cruyff had died.
Volkstrant used the erroneous piece to test a new app but saw it backfire when it went viral by accident.
The story entitled "Johan Cruyff deceased", which has now been taken down, soon spread throughout social media sending shockwaves throughout the country.
After the error was spotted the paper tweeted its apologies: "Due to an error on our new test site, we accidentally published a message about the death of Johan Cruyff.
"We're sorry."
Wegens een fout op onze nieuwe testsite is per ongeluk een bericht over de dood van Johan Cruijff op onze website verschenen. Onze excuses.— De Volkskrant (@volkskrant) August 19, 2014
Editor Philippe Remarque then expressed his apologies for the whole regrettable incident.
"On behalf of Volkskrant I offer my apologies to Johan Cruyff and anyone who has been upset by this," he said.
"The app was tested this morning with fake stories, and a technician came up with this as a way of testing a major breaking news story. By mistake it appeared with this headline."

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
"Genus Perknaster, n. gen.
Disk large and more or less inflated. Rays cylindrical and tapering.
Abactinal and lateral surfaces up to the adambulacral plates covered with small undistinguishable plates, which bear groups of short, equal spinelets, covered with skin, dispersed in tufts or paxilliform groups, more or less compactly placed.
Armature of the adambulacral plates disposed in one or two transverse series; the innermost spinelet usually large and thickly skin-covered. No small inner spinelet placed high up in the furrow as in Cribrella.
Madreporiform body distinct, situated about midway between the centre of the disk and the margin; surface marked with fine, convoluted striations.
Anal aperture subcentral and inconspicuous.
Ambulacral tube-feet in regular biserial arrangement, and having large fleshy terminal disks.
No pedicellariae of any kind present.
Remarks.—This genus, though allied to Cribrella, is at once characterised by the large development of the disk, by the compact structure of the abactinal and lateral skeleton, by the homogeneity of the marginal plates, and by the character of the armature of the adambulacral plates. The general facies of the forms I have included in the genus is very different from that of Cribrella, or any other type."

Bring Out Your Inner Pool Shark at New York's Best Billiards
By Courtney Sunday
Toronto Local Expert
Before we begin to write about the best billiards in New York, let us claim that we know there is a difference between pool and billiards. Both may be cue sports, but games can have different objectives, whether it is to pocket balls or to move those balls around the table in a precise way. The real objective for both is to look like you are barely trying when you are putting your heart and soul into a game. Be honest: these games are about playing it cool in front of your friends while slyly winning. We don't judge.
Rather than judging, we have more productively spent our time searching out the best places to play pool, billiards or snooker in New York. Expect a mix of novices and experts playing eight-ball and other variations of the game during busy nights out. Marvel at the skills on display at places like Amsterdam Billiards, or test your own mettle with a game of one-pocket and, just maybe, a friendly wager. If things get serious, you may want to join a league at a place like Gotham City Billiards Club, rather than subjecting your friends on a regular basis to your obsession with winning.
Let's rack 'em and shoot 'em, shall we?
Joe Broadway's Billiards & Sports Pub
If you make the trip out to Staten Island, you want to be promised a good time. Joe Broadway's is that, with cozy booths for those times when you want to call eating wings a sport and a beautiful pool hall for when you need to prove your worth in your inner circle. Televisions sit side by side behind the bar, allowing you to watch many games at once - a dream in today's multitasking society. There are pool and dart leagues for any level player, which is a good way to learn the lingo and meet some friends across the pond. (718-727-9194)
Park Billiards Cafe And Sports Bar
Take away the fussy features and get honest: sometimes you just want it to be about the pool. Park Billiards has over 20 pool tables to keep you busy, along with beer buckets and wings to make an evening of it. On weekends, DJs spin, but the reasonable rates mean that many players have their eye on the game. Daytime rates can be as low as $6.50 a person, and it only climbs to $10 an hour if you go in the evening. It's not a fancy time, but it's a good time. Isn't that what you're looking for when it comes to the delightful pairing of billiards and booze? (718-829-3051)
Gotham City Billiards
Gotham City is the kind of pool hall you go to when you take the game seriously. When you can stare over the shaft of a stick with confidence and just enough of a pause to make your competition quiver. Sports memorabilia and model cars deck the walls of this family-owned billiards establishment, open since 2003. Join an amateur league and leave yourself open to the possibility of winning cash prizes. If you are exceptional, you can even qualify for a chance at the nationals in Las Vegas. But let's start with figuring out your stance and how to break. (718-714-1002)
Eastside Billiards
We will never get tired of pool puns, because there are just so many good ones. Case in point: Eastside Billiards has been "bustin' balls since 1991." This stuff just writes itself. This place prides itself on owning 16 Brunswick Gold Crown III tables, which are considered to have superior craftsmanship (but would you expect anything else from the Upper East Side?). Even the sticks are routinely serviced and re-tipped. If the tables look so good, you are expected to as well: ladies can't show their stomachs and gentlemen must wear a shirt. Not the strictest of dress codes but enough to make sure that the game remains classy. Lessons are available for all levels if you don't yet feel confident with your game. (212-831-POOL)
Space Billiards
New York is famously into fusion and Space Billiards proves this with their combination of billiards with Korean vodka. Go to the 12th floor of a building in Koreatown to get there. You will know you are in the right place by the plethera of neon lights. Drinks are reasonable, and happy hour also extends to the table with a lower rate per hour between 2pm and 8pm. Order a drink while you shoot some stick and get free popcorn to nosh on. The hours, between 2pm and 4am allow for ample time to improve your game, if you need it. (212-239-4166)
The best place to shoot eight ball in the Flatiron, Slate also happens to feature a New American dining room and an ultra-cool VIP lounge area (called PLUS), a living room-inspired space with contemporary furniture, plasma screens, hardwood floors, and a terrific sound system. What really makes Slate stand out, though, are its 30 or so gorgeous pool tables. Well spaced and professionally maintained, they're a sight to behold and a pleasure to play. Going to Slate will appeal to the wide variety of entertainment preferences that you and your friends have. There is a little something for everyone, from dancing to games to tempting food. (212-989-0096)
Society Billiards & Bar
Society Billiards & Bar is the kind of high end billiards bar that makes you want to dress up for the pool table. If you are having the kind of day where your aim is impressively on point, you might want to also go for the darts. Society calls themselves "the best kept secret" of the Flatiron District, so we do apologize for busting their cover. Their cork room has completely customizable walls and is available for group bookings with three private pool tables. They also have a pro shop if you want to practice your game at home with cue services to keep your existing billiards merchandise in tip-top condition. (212-420-1000)
Break Bar & Billiards
If you have ever watched Jimmy Fallon, you know that the man has an affinity for games. Let's be honest, so do the rest of us. If you have an inclination to break out a giant game of Jenga or Connect 4, this is your bar. Even better, it has great billiards tables and high def televisions to surround yourself with distractions even more profound that your SmartPhone. With exposed brick and soaring 12-foot ceilings, Break has a cool industrial feel. Which makes the fact that pool is free before 8pm (as long as you buy food and drink) even all the more surprising. (718-777-5400)
Fat Cat Billiards
Live music and games: What more could be better? This basement-level dive, associated with jazzy Smalls on West 10th, is as classic as they come. There are no frills, no fancy themes, no cleverly-named cocktails. What attracts the West Village crowd to Fat Cat is its simplicity – it's a great place to relax with friends and catch a terrific jazz act, and it's an even better place to play backgammon, ping-pong, pool, or (gulp!) chess. There is even shuffleboard if you want to bring out your inner grandparent. Pay by the minute or by the table, depending on the game. Just play. (212-675-6056)
Amsterdam Billiards
One of the city's – some would say the country's – most distinguished billiard clubs, Amsterdam is handsomely dressed with blond wood partitions and sleek, contemporary sensibility (straight, defined lines, sharp geometry and semi-private sitting areas with flat-screen TVs). Co-founded by comedian David Brenner back in 1989, the classy place has been written up in numerous rags and featured on a handful of TV shows, including "Letterman" and "Good Morning America." Amsterdam has pool leagues, ping pong and foosball. They also aren't afraid of hosting bachelor parties, which we have to say, takes balls. We promise we will stop with the pool puns. (212-995-0333)

Obama's New Money Man
Updated:President Obama used his press conference officially nominating Jack Lew as Treasury Secretary to answer critics. "Under President Clinton, he presided over three budget surpluses in a row. So for all the talk out there about deficit reduction, making sure our books are balanced, this is the guy who did it- 3 times." But Lew's got a lot of tricky economic issues to deal with: including fiscal fights with Congress over the U.S. deficit.

If you board CC Rider in Linnton, at the Subway Restaurant, at approximately HWY 30 and NW 113th Ave, the stop has moved 2-blocks east to NW 111th Avenue. This location is between the Arco Gas Station and the House of Pipes retail store. Trimet graciously allowed us to place a CC Rider emblem on their bus stop sign for their Line 16.
The new stop has a bench for sitting and is better aligned with the east bound transit stop across the highway at NW 112th Avenue (CC Rider also shares this stop with Trimet).
CC Rider values its growing relationship with Trimet and we thank them for allow us to use their infrastructure where we share common routes. This sharing of stops where possible, will allow CC Rider to use our limited budget to better allocate CC Rider bus stop signs where we are the only provider.
Minor Adjustment to Line 1 – Downtown Portland, Line 2 – PCC Rock Creek, and Line 6 – Nehalem Valley
Line 1 – Downtown Portland: The stop at SW Salmon at SW 14th (Lincoln High School) will move to coincide with the Trimet stop for Line 15 and 51. Beginning immediately if you wish to board or exit the CC Rider bus you will do so at the Trimet stop.
Line 2 – PCC Rock Creek and Line 6 – Nehalem Valley: New Tanasbourne southbound stop at SW 185th and Cornell Rd. This stop will be co-located with the Trimet stop for Line 52.
Northbound will remain the same, but will have a new CC Rider sticker on the existing Trimet Line 52 sign.
Look for these CC Rider stop identifiers:

How much do you spend on driving?
There are numerous websites which one can go to help you discover just how much money you are spending to drive. I have listed links to two below. The first is from AAA and while it is good for a very general understanding of the true cost of driving, it doesn't factor in external and indirect costs such as road maintenance and emergency service cost, etc. The second is from a website which uses central California data, so it could be slightly higher than what we pay here in the Pacific NW, but it does a good job at trying to factor in numerous external/indirect costs. Also, the AAA calculator isn't on-line fillable and doesn't calculate cost based on various inputs. The second link does so beautifully; allowing you to try different combinations to see how reducing or increasing your mileage will affect your yearly costs.
I encourage you to use these two sites and scan the internet for other sites designed to help you figure out that driving a car; while expedient at times, can also be quite a bit more expensive than filling the tank.

Columbia County Rider History
In the mid 1970's, Scappoose resident Dorothy Churchill and a select few intrepid volunteers, had a vision for a transportation program to serve Columbia County's senior citizens. They put together some fund raisers and an old van or two, and Colco Transportation was born. Over the years, Colco grew to be the largest rural transportation program in the State of Oregon, serving not only the elderly, but also the disabled and general public. In 2003, Colco's board of directors notified the Columbia County Commissioners that they would not be able to continue service, due to financial constraints, and they would be ceasing operations. The Board of Commissioners, knowing the severe negative impact this would have on the communities of the County, sprung into action, assigning then County Council, John Knight to construct a plan to save the public transit system. Needless to say, he did just that, and operating with sub-contractors, Columbia County Rider was born. In a short time, ridership grew, and the reins of the Columbia County Transit Division were turned over to Janet Wright, Director of Economic Development, and Commissioners Assistant. She leads the agency today as Transit Director. Today, as our county grows, Columbia County Rider continues to grow and add new services. Keep an eye on our web site for future routes and services, and please feel free to contact us if you have suggestions on how we can serve you better.

NEW YORK - Of all the Philadelphia-New York rivalries, this one between the Flyers and Rangers is the most colorful, the most contentious, and the one that appears headed for another crusty playoff chapter.
"I would take that if somebody said that today, because then you know you're in the playoffs," Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren said before the two rivals continued jockeying for playoff position Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden. "If somebody said,'You're going to play the Rangers,' I'd say that's great."
After missing the playoffs last season and starting 1-7 this season, a first-round playoff matchup with the Rangers would represent a step in the right direction for the Flyers, but home-ice advantage might be required if they want more than a one-and-done playoff scenario.

About 125 children in Yorkshire, England, began riding two yellow buses to and from school in mid-February as part of a pilot project to test the effectiveness of American-style school transportation in Britain. The transit-style school buses, manufactured by Blue Bird Corp. in Fort Valley, Ga., are among 100 that have been delivered to England to help reduce pollution and congestion across the U.K. "We are anticipating that today's initiative will reduce the number of cars on the school run in this part of [Yorkshire] by some 45,000 to 50,000 a year," said FirstGroup CEO Moir Lockhead. FirstGroup, the parent company of First Student Inc., is the operator of the buses. Transportation experts estimate that 20 percent of morning rush-hour traffic in Britain is attributable to parents driving their children to school. The buses currently used for school runs in England are generally older vehicles that contribute to a growing air quality problem. The buses — Blue Bird rear-engine All Americans — feature right-hand drive and left-hand service doors.

Sunland: Red Lead captures Curribot for second time
Red Lead won the Curribot Handicap at Sunland Park for the second time in his career on Sunday, when he was always prominent for a 1 1/4-length score over Hurricane Lake. Red Lead also won the Curribot for 3-year-olds and up in 2010.
Red Lead ($10) settled in third early on Sunday, as Warren's Knockout took the field through fractions of 23.78 seconds for the opening quarter and 47.49 for the half-mile. Red Lead took over through six furlongs in 1:11.08, and went on to cover 1 1/16 miles in 1:42.84.
Enrique Gomez was aboard for trainer Chris Hartman.
Red Lead earned $30,000 for the win, to boost his career bankroll to $725,296. Overall, he has won 11 of 42 starts. Red Lead, who is a 7-year-old son of Red Bullet, races for Joe Davis.
Global Stage finished third in the Curribot, a half-length behind runner-up Hurricane Lake. The race is one of the local preps for the Sunland Park Handicap.
